Flores and Ira Goldstein, and
Whereas, the land consists of woods, streams, wetlands, and several existing walking trails, and will be maintained by the Town as a passive recreational facility, and
Whereas, the landowners have requested that it be named “Sage Preserve” in honor of Tessa Sage Flores and her family, and
Whereas, the Town Board has determined that the name “Sage Preserve” meets the criteria of the Town of Ithaca Policy on Naming Town Parks (July 8, 2002), now therefore be it
Resolved, that the Town Board hereby designates that the name of the newly acquired 137 acres shall be “Sage Preserve.”
