The CDTA will hold a public meeting at the Cohoes Senior Center on Thursday to discuss Phase Two of the proposed Albany Route Restructuring plan. Three public meetings have already been held throughout Albany County over the last two weeks.

The meeting will go from 6 to 7:30 p.m and people who attend the meeting will get the opportunity to discuss Routes #29, 82 and 432.

According to the CDTA, they are restructuring the Albany route network to better align services where people work, live and shop. Phase One of the plan was implemented in November 2011. Phase Two will focus on service in surrounding areas and is scheduled to go into effect later this year.

The Conservation Tree and Shrub program is conducted every year by the Soil and Water Conservation District.

The program offers a variety of seedlings/transplants, ground covers and wildflower seed mixes at reduced rates. This is to encourage conservation planting.

Tree tubes, marking flags and fertilizer tablets are also offered. Orders by March 23 will ensure availability.
