Department director Jackie Mahoney will be present to explain the trail development process, review landowner agreements, and answer questions from the community. Residents are invited to attend and share their thoughts—whether they're interested in offering land for trails, opening roads in their area, or voicing concerns.
'This is a great opportunity to build connections in the community while expanding outdoor recreation in a way that's safe, responsible, and respectful to landowners,' Mahoney said. 'I would love to hear from residents about trail access ideas or concerns.'
Anyone unable to attend but still wanting to participate should contact Mahoney at (315) 376-5972, via email, or by completing the interest form at:
