Nevele Taken from Hoffman by Wolff

KINGSTON - On Wednesday, March 24, Judge Mary Work rendered her judgment in the dispute between Joel Hoffman and Mitchell Wolff, former business partners who were fighting for control over Ellenville's Nevele Grande Resort. Work ruled that Wolff be awarded control over the resort, as well as the Center at Horseheads, an industrial park.

The decision seemingly puts an end to the ongoing question of whether and to whom Hoffman would sell the resort, which has been for sale since March 2008. New questions, however, have been raised, such as to whom Wolff plans on selling the resort, and what will happen to BG Quality Logging's efforts to conduct a selective timber harvest on the property, which has been under review by Wawarsing's planning board since last summer.

Parking Lot Protest
Protestors in New Paltz Spoke Against Minnewaska-Closure

NEW PALTZ – On a day that really had spring in the air and the thermometer nudging 70, several hundred people gathered in a municipal parking lot in New Paltz to protest the possible closure of Minnewaska Park.

The protestors listened first to Tim Hunter, the activist who launched the Save Minnewaska Facebook page two weeks ago — which boasted 21,200 members as of Monday, March 22. "I want to thank you all for coming out today," said Hunter. "Everyone's here because they love Minnewaska. We are unified by our love of nature." Hunter then introduced New York State Assemblyman Kevin Cahill.   > MORE
