As you know, the proposed Westchester County budget calls for closing the nature centers. Needless to say this raised quite a controversy. The first open meeting where the public could comment was held in New Rochelle last week. Turn out was enormous. The crowd was not only standing-room only, it was also so large that many potential protesters could not get into the building.
The next open meeting is in White Plains on Tuesday evening Dec 6th. Because of the expected large turn out, the location of the meeting has been moved to the Little Theater in the Westchester County Center.
Call or write you Legislator. And show up at this meeting if you can. The more the legislators recognize the number of voters who oppose the closing of nature centers the better the chance it won’t happen.
