To the Editor:
The Scenic Area of Statewide Significance (SASS) Designation is a topic that very few residents and representatives fully understand.
After a two-year assessment process, there continues to be many questions and unclear answers as to the full effects that will take place as a result of a SASS Designation from the New York Department of State.
Has the assessment process been comprehensive, objective and transparent enough to fully realize the impacts of this important policy decision?
Do residents, property owners and businesses along the St. Lawrence River fully understand what is being proposed in their community?
Is this about tourism or is it about property rights and land use regulations?
