The Tompkins County Planning Department is leading an effort to identify the 100 most significant views in Tompkins County. During Fall 2005 and Spring 2006, most of the roads, the most heavily used trails, and Cayuga Lake were surveyed and over 500 scenic resources were catalogued. A map of the results, along with photographs, can be seen on the Tompkins County Scenic Resources website.
The rules for nominating a view are simple: it must be a view from a publicly accessible location and it must be submitted by July 31. Just let the Planning Department know where the view is and provide a brief description of the view.
So, whether you admire waterfalls, prefer lake views, or favor panoramas, you can vote by visiting www.tompkins-co.org/planning/ScenicResources.htm by July 31.
