The Economic Impact of the Adirondack Park Private Land Use and Development Plan
Author: Charles I. Zinser
Publisher: State University of New York Press
ISBN: 1438424868
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 344
Book Description
The purpose of this book is to assess the nature and degree of impact the Adirondack Park Private Land Use and Development Plan has had upon the economy of the Adirondack Park Region in New York State. This Plan regulates land use on the private areas within the Adirondack Park "blue line," lands that occupy 60% of the geographic space within the Park. The Plan, which has been operative since August 1, 1973, represents one of the most significant pieces of land use legislation enacted in the United States. Data was collected and interpreted on how key groups of local governments perceived the economic impact of the Plan, how realtors and employers perceived it, and the impact on subdivisions. Finally, the net economic impact of the Plan on the Adirondack real estate market and on each of the 90 Adirondack Park towns was concluded with suggestions for remedial action.

A Wild Idea
Author: Brad Edmondson
Publisher: Cornell University Press
ISBN: 1501759035
Category : Travel
Languages : en
Pages : 185
Book Description
A Wild Idea shares the complete story of the difficult birth of the Adirondack Park Agency (APA). The Adirondack region of New York's rural North Country forms the nation's largest State Park, with a territory as large as Vermont. Planning experts view the APA as a triumph of sustainability that balances human activity with the preservation of wild ecosystems. The truth isn't as pretty. The story of the APA, told here for the first time, is a complex, troubled tale of political dueling and communities pushed to the brink of violence. The North Country's environmental movement started among a small group of hunters and hikers, rose on a huge wave of public concern about pollution that crested in the early 1970s, and overcame multiple obstacles to "save" the Adirondacks. Edmondson shows how the movement's leaders persuaded a powerful Governor to recruit planners, naturalists, and advisors and assign a task that had never been attempted before. The team and the politicians who supported them worked around the clock to draft two visionary land-use plans and turn them into law. But they also made mistakes, and their strict regulations were met with determined opposition from local landowners who insisted that private property is private. A Wild Idea is based on in-depth interviews with five dozen insiders who are central to the story. Their observations contain many surprising and shocking revelations. This is a rich, exciting narrative about state power and how it was imposed on rural residents. It shows how the Adirondacks were "saved," and also why that campaign sparked a passionate rebellion.
