[Hvcatskillcewg] Next meeting

[David Diaz]

Hello everyone,

It's been a while since we had to cancel our last meeting.  We had things
moving in such positive directions I'm hoping we can get things moving
again.  I put out some feelers a few months ago about a potential topic for
our next meeting.  The topic was easement language, specifically language
pertaining to some of the more difficult issues such as:  wind energy
installations, solar energy installations, and forest management.  I also
put out some feelers to those that might be able to present information to
the group on these types of topics.  They include NYS Dept of Ag and
Markets, a Hudson Valley based solar energy company, and the Hudson Valley
Chapter of the Society of American Foresters.  I got positive responses from
all.  The focus would likely be site selection and best management
practices.  This could definitely help inform easement language.

Questions for the group:
Is this something that the group would still be interested in?  
Are there other issues that we might want to secure speakers for?  
Would we be interested in having our next meeting sometime in the latter
half of January/early February?
