Long Island North Shore Heritage Area, Inc.

Following approval of the Long Island North Shore Heritage Area Management Plan on December 6, 2006, the Planning Commission began implementation of one of the first action steps outlined in that Plan - creation of a non-profit management agency to continue the work of the Commission in guiding the implementation of the Management Plan.  At its final meeting on December 13, 2006, the Planning Commission approved a certificate of incorporation for the Long Island North Shore Heritage Area, Inc. and invited both its own Commissioners and interested members of the public to join in signing the certificate as the initial "Incorporators" of this new agency. 

Subsequently, those incorporators invited representatives of each Participating Municipality, along with other interested Heritage Area stakeholders, to attend a meeting in the spring of 2007 for the purpose of approving By-Laws for this new organization.  Following certification of the organization's incorporation on January 28, 2008, the Incorporators, serving as its interim Board of Directors, contacted each Participating Municipality, requesting that each formally designate their representative to attend the organization's initial Annual Meeting on November 19, 2008 as Voting Members of the Corporation for the purpose of selecting a new, elected Board of Directors.   (See Meeting Minutes.)

For upcoming meetings of the Board of Directors, as well as the Annual Meeting, see the Meeting Notices section of this web site.
