The Town of Clarkstown’s newly created Greenway Commission held its inaugural meeting this week at Town Hall, marking the beginning of a new initiative aimed at protecting and preserving the town’s natural landscapes and open spaces.
Town officials say the commission was established to help safeguard the natural beauty that defines Clarkstown’s unique semi-rural and suburban character. The group will focus on identifying and preserving environmentally significant areas while promoting thoughtful planning that balances development with conservation.
According to the town, the creation of the Greenway Commission reflects Clarkstown’s ongoing commitment to environmental stewardship and responsible land use, ensuring that natural resources and historic lands are protected for future generations.
Officials noted that additional updates on the commission’s work and future initiatives are expected to be shared with residents in the coming weeks.
