Clinton County Legislature invited for Bridge Tour

Clinton County Legislature invited for Bridge Tour

MAY 10, 2021 — 

Tonight I invited every member of the Clinton County Legislature (once again) to tour our bridges. To see them with their own eyes, and to hear how important these bridges are. I’ve encouraged them that anyone with the power to vote on an important issue, should see with their own eyes, and hear what we have learned over the last 8 months. I will walk the same walk 100 times if need be to save these bridges. Our goal is to not focus on the negative, but to work WITH our county officials. To be positive and respectful. We want to 1) Preserve History and save our bridges 2) Right a Wrong from years ago and 3) Make History by setting a precedent in NY that historic bridges can and should be saved.

Thank you Supervisor Hughes

We just had a great afternoon with Essex Supervisor Ken Hughes who went out of his way to learn more about our Historic Bridges. Thank you Mr. Hughes for your willingness to learn about our heritage and our one of a kind bridges. You provided some great ideas for us, and we ALL appreciate your time. We were able to share our thoughts, and had some really great conversations about how important historic preservation is. I’d like to publicly invite any other Supervisor in Essex County to take a similar walk with me, to be informed on the facts about our bridges, and why they should be preserved. Anyone involved with an important issue and especially that requires a County vote, should consider seeing these bridges in person. Let’s work together to find a solution. Today’s meeting was very encouraging!

I’ve also sent each Supervisor in Essex County an email reminding them of the open invitation to tour the bridges.
