READY FOR GLAMPING
The Planning Board of Austerlitz is meeting tonight, Thursday, February 6th at 7pm in the new town hall in Spencertown. We understand the board will be considering a proposal from Field and Farm headed by Jason and Jill Duffy to develop their land along Punsit Road for a "glamping" enterprise. It is important that all concerned about this request to develop this land that has been farmed for generations into a commercial tourist business show up at the meeting. We need to educate ourselves about the proposal and its potential impact before the Board makes any decision on granting of special permits, and to make our concerns known to the Board. If you are not able to attend tonight, you can email your thoughts to the Planning Board through the town website Austerlitz Planning Board Connection.
We understand The Columbia Paper will be covering the hearing and following the proposal as it progresses. Stay tuned. You can also learn about this and other issues on:
