Save Sapsucker Woods

A critical aspect of our campaign is demonstrating to the Ithaca Town officials (Town Board, Planning Board, and Conservation Board) that there is broad public opposition to the Briarwood II subdivision proposal, and that the Planning Board has not scrutinized the proposal carefully enough.

In addition to writing letters to our town officials, we want to attend their public meetings and give voice to our concerns. We also want to approach the Tompkins County Environmental Management Council with our objections to Briarwood II.

Below are the dates when the boards meet--please join us in attending these meetings. The Town Boards meet in the Town Hall, 215 N. Tioga St.
