The agenda for this Meeting of the Guilderland Conservation Advisory Council can be found here. There are 2 items for consideration:

• Discussion on Designating the Conservation Advisory Council as the Climate Smart Community Taskforce

  The Climate Smart Communities (CSC) program is an interagency initiative of New York State initiated in 2009. The CSC program supports participating local governments throughout New York State in their efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, adapt to the effects of climate change, and thrive in a green economy.  One of the mandatory action items to become certified is to create a CSC Task Force. The task force would serve as a central body of leadership that promotes and supports climate mitigation and adaption in the community. The CSC Task Force would act as an advisory board that advises and collaborates with the Town to accomplish plans, programs and activities that are part of the CSC Certification Program.

• Discussion on Utilizing the Town's Interactve Mapping System for Researching Properties

  Mansi Parmar, Assistant Planner/GIS Analyst will provide an overview on the Town's Interactive Mapping System and how CAC members can utilize the information as preparation for conducting site visits, particularly during winter months when there is snow cover.
