Below is a proposal for a NASCAR racetrack adjoining (actually in) a wetland just south of the Goethals Bridge on Staten Island. The 38 page draft scope can be downloaded. I realize that I just posted about this last week but I can't stress enough the need to speak up. If possible, attend the public meeting.
Public Scoping Meeting on Motorsports Entertainment Complex on Staten Island
On April 27, 2006, the Department of City Planning, on behalf of the City Planning Commission, will hold a public scoping meeting on the Draft Scope of Work for an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) to be prepared for the proposed Motorsports Entertainment Complex on Staten Island.
