UPCOMING EVENTS.
SPRING 2025!
The first townwide community workshop will be held at Town Hall from 10am-noon on Saturday, June 28, 2025 to discuss the Town of Copake's project to develop a new Smart Growth Comprehensive Plan, funded by a recent NYS DOS award. Don't miss out on the Comp Plan Survey below and sign up on the project contact list to receive project updates and event notifications.
Please take the community Comprehensive Plan Survey by August 31, 2025
The Comprehensive Review Plan Committee is tasked with guiding the development of this new plan, and will support community engagement efforts to ensure your ideas are represented. We need your help to envision what Copake will be like ten to fifteen years from now - and to propose a roadmap for how we can get there.
Help us understand your vision for the town's growth in the next decade. The survey seeks your opinion on a range of critical planning issues including smart growth principles, economic development, the growth of Copake's hamlets, housing choice and accessibility, community facilities and recreation, agriculture, open space and the environment, arts and culture, infrastructure, historic preservation, and town government.​
We'd like all community members ages 18 and up to respond. Please share your thoughts about the future of Copake! We want to hear from everyone - old timers and newcomers, renters and owners, weekenders and full timers – young, old and everybody in between.​Taking the survey online using the survey button above helps simplifies data entry and analysis of your responses and reduces costs. If you prefer, pick up a paper copy at Town Hall to mail in or drop back at Town Hall.
