Court Decision on ACR Rezoning in Tupper Lake is Appealed;
Issues Deserve Appellate Division’s Attention

Tupper Lake, NY –  The Association for the Protection of the Adirondacks, the Residents’ Committee to Protect the Adirondacks and more than thirty area landowners have appealed Supreme Court Judge David Demarest’s November, 2007 decision that the Town of Tupper Lake’s rezoning of over 6,200 acres was exempt from review under the State Environmental Quality Review Act (SEQR). The Town’s rezoning was done in September, 2006 to facilitate the proposed Adirondack Club and Resort. The appeal was filed last week with the Appellate Division, Third Department, in Albany.
