In Newburgh, New York, a community in the Hudson Valley, GCI has
partnered with the city on a Sustainable Master Planning process that
will empower local citizens, NGOs, youth groups, and others in
envisioning and building a sustainable future.  We have trained over 200
stakeholders who have contributed to the process, and have hired several
local coordinators to help the city do the public outreach and research
that is required.  This Master Planning initiative ties in with other
planning efforts by the city to shape development on the waterfront, to
upgrade the Broadway corridor, a main route through town, and to pull a
plan together for the brownfields sites in the community.
