ALBANY – The Hudson River Valley Greenway has awarded grants to two communities to support community projects. Both are matching grants.
The Town of Saugerties will receive $10,000 for a feasibility study focused on improving recreational access to the undeveloped 165 acre Bristol Beach State Park. The study will evaluate how to establish public access to the park and its mile-long Hudson River shoreline.
The Town of Wawayanda will receive $7,500 for a comprehensive plan update. It will continue to outline visions, policies and recommendations for the planning of the community.
The Greenway grant program provides funding to municipalities for projects that connect with one or more of Greenway’s five goals of natural and cultural resource protection, heritage and environmental education, public access to the Hudson River, economic development, and regional planning.
