MISSION STATEMENT:
The Catskill Landowners Association, Inc. (CLA) believes enlightened private land stewardship is vital to preserving the aesthetic and environmental integrity of the Catskill region. CLA strives to develop better communication among its members on issues of common concern and to promote broader understanding of the important role played by responsible private landowners in the sound management and conservation of natural resources in the region. CLA endorses New York State’s efforts to preserve the native character of the Catskills and will support the enactment of state laws and polices protecting the forest preserve and respecting the rights of responsible private property owners. CLA will resist efforts, whether by eminent domain or unnecessary regulation, to take private property rights away from owners who manage their properties in accordance with sound environmental practices.
