<description><![CDATA[ (Jun 22, 2012) In the final hours of the session yesterday, lawmakers in Albany pushed through two bills that would amend the state constitution for the Adirondack forest preserve.

However, they hope to derail a plan to expand a mining operation onto state Park land in Willsboro.

<title>Can Albany settle the century-old Raquette Lake land dispute?</title>
<link>http://www.northcountrypublicradio.org/news/story/19915/20120601/can-albany-settle-the-century-old-raquette-lake-land-dispute</link>
<description><![CDATA[ (Jun 1, 2012) This weekend in the Hamilton County community of Raquette Lake, landowners will gather to hear a proposal that could change New York state’s constitution.For generations, their community has been in conflict with the state over land claims affecting more than 200 parcels.  Locals and seasonal residents say the property is privately owned.  But state officials, and some environmental groups, have argued that much of the land is actually part of the state forest preserve and should be kept “forever wild.”As Brian Mann reports, this is the latest effort to sort out one of the Adirondack Park’s oldest and thorniest disputes.
