State Parks in a Time of Economic Crisis: Rebuilding or Just Surviving
In recent years, New York State Parks has identified hundreds of millions of
dollars of vital infrastructure repairs and other needs that sorely require
funding in order to maintain services, safety, and environmental quality in our
state parks. But the economic crisis has affected the abilities of all
government agencies to meet their objectives, including the Finger Lakes Region
of the Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation.
On Saturday, May 16, Tim Joseph, Regional Director for the Finger Lakes State
Parks and former Chair of the Tompkins County Legislature will address this
issue in his presentation entitled, State Parks in a Time of Economic Crisis:
Rebuilding or Just Surviving.
Mr. Josephs talk will take place at 2:00 p.m. in the auditorium at Kendal at
Ithaca off N. Triphammer Road. The event is free and the public is invited.
This is a special presentation offered by the Friends of Robert H. Treman State
Park and is hosted through the generosity of Kendal at Ithaca.
