Next Catskill Park Advisory Committee Scheduled for June 24th at 1pm

The next Catskill Park Advisory Committee meeting will be held on Thursday, June 24, 2021 from 1pm to 3pm.

This meeting will be held via Zoom. We expect an item of discussion at this meeting will be the return to in-person meetings later this year.

CPAC Meeting Notes: Past meeting notes and agendas are posted here. The January 2021 meeting notes will be posted shortly, as will a Q2 agenda.

A reminder to all Stakeholders: In order to have your report included with the final agenda emailed to all CPAC members, please prepare and send your updates/reports to me by the 18th of June. These reports are an effective information delivery mechanism, help speed up stakeholder reporting, and allow us to focus on specific presentations and discussion as we move from the virtual meeting space back into an in-person meeting space. All reports received will also be included with the final meeting notes for archiving and posting on the website.

The Catskill Park Advisory Committee was established by the Catskill Center in consultation with the NYS Department of Environmental Conservation. The Committee is a group of local governments and stakeholder organizations. The governments, agencies and organizations represent the various communities and user groups of the Catskill Park and the Catskill Watershed. The purpose of the Committee is to provide assistance, advice and guidance to the NYS Department of Environmental Conservation, the NYC Department of Environmental Protection and other land managers in the management of the New York State Forest Preserve, the Catskill Park and the Catskill Watershed.
