We want you to know about our concerns. Currently they center around waste management in Washington County, but we are looking at other possible areas of concern. We have prepared a survey to find out if you share these concerns. Please look at this survey and use it to respond if you have similar concerns.
With regard to waste management, we are focusing on three areas.
Promoting Composting
On Saturday, November 13, 2011, we were one of the sponsors of a Master Composting Class.
Opposing Unregulated and Poorly Regulated Incineration
On June 1, 2010, we held a forum at the Greenwich Free Library on the Hudson Falls Incinerator.
Promoting Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR)
Our task force on Extended Producer Responsibility meets regularly. Contact us for more information.
We also want you to know what we find special about southern Washington County. Take a look at our photo exhibition.
We are also concerned about zoning in the Town of Greenwich.
And we have also been concerned about a 108-unit development that John Witt proposed building in the village of Greenwich/Town of Easton. (The location is 57 acres on southeast corner of Rt. 74 and Rt. 372). While Mr. Witt and his associates no longer own this property, the concerns that we had apply to any large-scale development proposed for southern Washington County.
