There IS no requirement for the State to purchase ANC acquired lands and to intimate that there is - is just an admission of the improper relationship that has developed between the ANC and the APA and thus the State. Let the ANC try to manage that debt it rolled up in those lands for 10 years or so and maybe even they will begin to see the value in selected development.

NYS has largely funded the purchase of lands inside the blueline since it's inception. This park has not only state but national significance. Why can't New Yorkers expect the Feds. to assist in the protection of this treasure. If private donations are worked into the funding mix, we can continue to add appropriate lands even in the face of this economic disaster.

As much as I would hate to see the two VICs closed at least that doesn't threaten the APA's administration of the APA Act, Rivers Act, and Wetlands Act.
