LIRPC 2035 Regional Comprehensive Sustainability Plan


The Long Island Regional Planning Council (LIRPC) is working on the development of a long-term plan for Long Island, for the year 2035, and you are being called upon to voice your opinions and help ensure a sustainable future for generations to come. 

As part of its outreach in developing the Long Island 2035 Regional Comprehensive Sustainability Plan, the LIRPC is assembling a number of Stakeholder Resource Groups to help shape the work product.  In addition to issue-oriented groups, the LIRPC is forming a Young Adult Group, to be comprised of 18-34 year olds who live, work, and/or attend an institution of higher education on Long Island.  I invite you to join me in assuming responsibility for our collective future by serving on this Young Adult Stakeholder Resource Group.

On Tuesday, May 11th, 2010, from 6:30pm to 9:00pm at the Molloy College facility at Republic Airport in East Farmingdale, there will be a plenary session of the Young Adult Stakeholder Resource Group.  Light refreshments will be served.  The purpose of this meeting is to introduce a core group of proactive young adults to the Long Island 2035 Sustainability Plan project, to gather feedback on the work completed to-date, and to provide an open forum for brainstorming how to best implement a broader public outreach effort in the fall. 

Please confirm your willingness to participate in the Young Adult Group, as well as whether you will be able to attend the kick-off meeting on May 11th, via email (msokol@nassaucountyny.gov) or telephone (516-571-5940).
