JAMESTOWN – The New York State Open Space Conservation Plan Regional Advisory Committee will be hosting an informational meeting tonight in Jamestown to give residents an update on the state’s Open Space Conservation Plan.
The State Department of Environmental Conservation and the New York State Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation are co-lead agencies of the plan, which serves as a blueprint for the State’s land conservation efforts to increase protection of the State’s significant natural, scenic, recreational, historic and cultural resources.
The Open Space Plan was last updated in 2009.
Tonight’s Chautauqua County Open Space meeting is scheduled for 6 PM and will take place at the Roger Tory Peterson Institute of Natural History, 311 Curtis Street, Jamestown. Members of the public are invited to attend the meeting and contribute input.
The current Open Space Conservation Plan is available online at:
