Southwestern New York State Economic Plan
Natural Environment
OBJECTIVES 1 & 2
Assist Communities to develop best practices and coordinate efforts regionally
Assist Communities to develop best practices and coordinate efforts regionally
Rural communities are often lacking in staff, funding, and knowledge to implement best practices, and thus they fall behind other areas of the state. This can be prevented with a regional approach and shared resources.
OBJECTIVE 3
Promote an outdoor recreation economy and ecotourism
Promote an outdoor recreation economy and ecotourism
Rural communities in southwestern New York have access to beautiful waterways and forests that, if carefully protected, can offer city dwellers from Buffalo, Pittsburgh and Cleveland a unique vacation and outdoor adventure experience. Collaborative efforts will help to maximize these offerings.
