Complete Streets Committee - Member
The Complete Streets Committee is a nine‑member board created to study town areas where Complete Streets solutions could be implemented and advise the Town Board or Planning Board on best‑practice implementation. “Complete Streets” are defined as roadways that enable safe and convenient access for all users, including bicyclists, pedestrians of all ages and abilities, motorists, movers of commercial goods, and public transportation. Mission: create streets that support and invite multiple uses, provide safe, active and ample space, and promote pedestrian, bicycle and public‑transportation travel as an alternative to the automobile in order to reduce greenhouse‑gas emissions and promote healthy living. The Committee promotes these modes through public outreach and events such as pop‑up festivals and bike rodeos. Responsibilities include: Review new street construction and reconstruction with the Highway Department to implement Complete Streets elements when possible. Review Planning Board projects and share ideas between the Boards to implement Complete Streets solutions to private projects and approvals whenever possible. Coordinate between the Niskayuna Central School District and the Town of Niskayuna to develop safe routes to schools and daycares for Niskayuna families. The Committee usually meets on the fourth Friday of the month at 9 am. Learn about our Complete Streets. If interested, please send a letter of interest and a resume or other description of applicable experience to Erin Cassady‑Dorion at atecassadydorion@niskayuna.org or drop it off at Erin Cassady‑Dorion’s office in Town Hall, 1 Niskayuna Circle, Niskayuna NY 12309. Must be a Niskayuna resident.
