Apparently on my ballot next Tuesday is a proposed "Amendment to Allow Olympic Sports Complex in Essex County on State Forest Preserve Land":

Allows skiing and related trail facilities on state forest preserve land. The site is 1,039 acres. Requires State to add 2,500 acres of new forest land in Adirondack Park. A "YES" vote authorizes new ski trails and related facilities in the Adirondack forest preserve. A "NO" vote does not authorize this use.


First I've heard anything about it. Any reason to vote against?
