Town of Lloyd

LLOYD, A RIVERFRONT TOWN, MAY FINALLY GET ACCESS TO THE RIVER:

As summer comes to a close, residents of the town of Lloyd have a chance to ensure river access for future summers.

On Wednesday, town voters will decide on a proposal to create a 1.7 acre park at 42 River Road, once a fuel storage depot.

The park would be the town's first riverside public park.
...
The town has proposed to purchase the park for $650,000, with funds already set aside for the purchase. Most of the money, $525,000, will come from the state Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation, and the Poughkeepsie environmental advocacy group Scenic Hudson.

In exchange for its contribution, Scenic Hudson will be given a conservation easement to maintain the property, ensuring it will remain a park forever.
