Ag Board to send support letter to Town of Goshen for Celery Ave rock ledge lowering
Summary
The board voted unanimously to write a letter to the Town of Goshen supporting the Celery Ave rock ledge lowering project, noting OC Soil & Water already has funding and awaits clearing and grading permits.
The Orange County Agricultural & Farmland Protection Board voted April 15 to send a letter to the Town of Goshen supporting the Celery Ave rock ledge lowering project.
K. Sumner of OC Soil & Water said the agency already has project funding but is waiting for Town of Goshen clearing and grading permits. Board members discussed the project's impacts on local agriculture and agreed to draft a letter stating that the project directly affects farming. S. Soons moved to write the letter; P. DeBlock seconded, and the motion carried unanimously.
The letter is intended to underscore agricultural impacts to local decision-makers as OC Soil & Water completes permitting steps; the board did not set a public timeline for sending the letter at the meeting.
