Opposition to the proposed campground at the west end of oak island waterloo ny
The Issue
This petition is to oppose the proposed "glamp-ground" at the west end of our village park, oak island in Waterloo NY.
Under the current proposal the village would cede the western part of the village park where fishing access and nature trails exist to the NYS canal corporation for the purpose of creating a campground. This would remove roughly a third of the public park from public use. The two park pavilions would also potentially be subject to shared use between the public and the campground patrons.
The canal corporation already owns the land across the river where the lock exists, they could very well pursue this undertaking there.
