Conservation Advisory Council

Mission Statement:

The Town of Coeymans Conservation Advisory Council was established in 2016. It is committed to providing dedicated support and scientific information that encourages the enhancement, preservation and flourishing of our Town’s natural and historical resources. The CAC’s collaborative efforts support these resources by developing strong working relationships with our Town‘s citizens, boards and neighbors.

If you are interested in learning more about the CAC, or assisting with our work please contact us or attend a meeting. The CAC meets at 6:00pm on the 2^nd Tuesday of each month. Meetings are held at the Coeymans Town Hall.
