Relates to the Mount Van Hoevenberg Olympic Sports Complex in Essex County
This bill implements a constitutional amendment allowing the Mount Van Hoevenberg Olympic Sports Complex to operate on forest preserve land in Essex County's Adirondacks. It requires the state to acquire at least 2,500 acres of additional forest preserve land within the Adirondack Park as an offset for using existing forest preserve land for the complex. The bill limits development on the complex site to 322.26 acres for Nordic skiing, biathlon trails, and necessary facilities (like parking and lodges), while prohibiting unrelated amenities like hotels or zip lines. All development must follow the Adirondack Park State Land Master Plan and require a unit management plan approval.
