Below is a summary of activities during the last month related to the former Texaco Beacon Research Facility.
Environmental Update
We have submitted a proposed schedule to the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation for the Feasibility Study.
Real Estate Update
Our environmental assessments have progressed nicely and we are starting to re-engage various stakeholders to identify potential buyers and end-state pathways for the site. Since our overall attempts to sell the entire property have been met with limited interest, we are now going to consider the demand for selling various lots or groupings of lots on a standalone basis. At our virtual CAP meeting on November 12, 2020, we discussed real estate issues in more detail, including answering community questions regarding our working with the county on their realignment of the Washington Avenue bridge and possibilities for various parts of the site. A summary of that meeting can be accessed here.
