Tax Parcel # 180.00-2-64, Clove Road, Town of Hunter, Greene County

The Town of Hunter in conjunction with the Hunter Area Trail Coalition (HATC), a partnership of local, county and state government and not-for-profit organizations, is enhancing trail-based recreation throughout the Town.  The vision is to create a cohesive trail network nearly 10 miles long through public and private lands from Kaaterskill Falls and the NYS North South Lake Campground to the Village of Hunter. 

The Town is seeking engineering services for phase 5 of the trail plan to install a pedestrian bridge on the former Hunter Branch Railroad west of Clove Road.  The bridge will span Clove Creek, a small tributary to the Schoharie Creek.  The property is owned by the NYC Department of Environmental Protection (NYCDEP), which will allow the trail through a land use permit.  The Consultant will coordinate with the Greene County Soil and Water Conservation District (GCSWCD) and the Town of Hunter on the following.
