The Plan recommends acquiring properties to interconnect trail systems and other large reserves of open space to ultimately realize a seamless network of public open spaces regardless of federal, state, county, municipal, non-profit, or semi-public ownership. In addition, the draft Plan sets forth recommendations for the county’s open space preservation program.
The Warren County Planning Board meeting begins at 8:00 pm and will take place at the Wayne Dumont, Jr. Administration Building, 165 County Route 519, White Township, located just south of Belvidere, NJ.
