sending emails, and contributing biking information to local/regional media. ACA reserves
booth space at expos and festivals to meet the public and "spread the word"about the

5. What is the amount you are requesting?
ACA is requesting funding for two important initiatives.

• Signage for Connector Path Phase 3 Request for Funding:53.000.00
Total:$8,000.00
6. Describe your event:
ACA has worked cooperatively with Adirondack/Glens Falls Transportation representatives,
county and local municipal planners, and private business representatives for the past seven
years to promote the development of a comprehensive-multi-use connector path/trail system.
ACA provides funding for the design of trails and signage'on sections of the trail/path network.
• Connector Path Network—Phase 3: Funding will be used for directional signage. This
2-mile section begins at the Halfway Brook/Peggy Ann Road parking lot and follows
Peggy Ann Road to the plug mill area, then splits into two branches— The Queensbury
branch follows Old Forge Rd..and Clark St., through the National Grid right-of-way to
Luzerne Road, ending at the Feeder Canal Path. The Glens Falls branch connects with
the trails being developed in Crandall Park by the City of Glen Falls and ends at the
YMCA, where this trail will ultimately link to the Warren County Bikeway.
• Gurney South Trails Phase 2:Funding will be used to offset the,cost of hiring a
professional trail designer to design the next section of single-track trails as part of
Phase 2 of Queensbury Parks& Recreation Master Plan. The design/development of
the next section of Rush Pond Looped Trails at Gurney South is essential to attract
mountain bikers to our area by offering a wide variety of quality mountain biking trail
networks that all bikers look for when choosing their rides. This expansion supports,
"the goat of making Queensbury/Warren County a mountain biking destination".
7. Date(s)of the above:
The Peggy Ann leg of the Connector Path Network will be ongoing throughout the year after
certification is approved and project construction can begin. Gurney South trail expansion is
scheduled to begin in the early summer of 2021 and continue throughout 2021.
8. Estimated number of persons served for this event:
From the statistics provided in #10, it is estimated that thousands of tourists and residents
will enjoy the extensive Queensbury trail and path networks not only as first-time users but
2

will return year after year as Queensbury continues to expand these essential professionally
designed trails and connector paths. ACA is dedicated to advocate for and support this area
as a "Destination for Bicyclists and Recreational Opportunities".
9. Describe how your event fulfills the following requirement: Your organization's request must
be expended for promotion of.the Town of Queensbury, be-it tourist activities, conventions,
trade shows, special events and other directly related and supported activities. Promotion or
promoting is defined as furthering the growth of,establishment of,sales,and/or contributing to the growth,
enlargement,or prosperity of and/or to forward or to encourage or to advance.
The popularity of bicycling and hiking has increased exponentially over recent years.
Queensbury has kept up with popular demand by constructing a network of professionally
constructed, safe bike/pedestrian trail/path networks throughout our area, as well as making
every effort to repave our roads/shoulders of roads for the safety of our bicyclists. In keeping
with development, the numbers of bikers and hikers has risen dramatically. This expansion of "
recreational opportunities has contributed significantly to the growth and prosperity of our
community. Visitors help our economy when staying at local lodging, eat at our restaurants,
and shop in our stores. Opportunities for first-rate recreation give new entrepreneurs(and
families)reasons to establish their businesses and purchase their homes in Queensbury.
It is essential that Queensbury continues to expand bike/pedestrian networks and build the
solid infrastructure that is necessary to provide a quality lifestyle for all our residents and
visitors. ACA is dedicated to advocating for the expansion of first-rate bike/pedestrian
experiences in Queensbury and the surrounding area.
Steve Lovering, Queensbury Recreation Department Director emphasized, "The positive impact
to the single-track riding community is huge. We already know that from trail counters, that
we had over 6,000 mountain biking trail riders and over 19,000 trail users on the Main Rush
Pond trail. These are very impactful for a community trying to develop a biking friendly
community."
10. Do you have empirical data that supports your request? Like number of nights generated
and/or potential economic impact of the event? If so please describe:
Steve Lovering, Director of Parks& Recreation submitted the following 2020 trail counts from
4 portable counters installed at different trail locations.
LOCATION/TRAIL 2020 Est.Count
Gurney Lane MTB Park 20,805
Gurney South (#trails in Rush Pond—July-Dec.) 6,300

A recent poll named Gurney Lane Recreational Center as#1 for single-track biking in New York.
With the addition of the four new trail systems, the popularity of biking/hiking/walking has
had a huge impact, both environmentally and economically, in the entire area.
Bike Sales and Repairs: Grey Ghost and Rick's Bike Shop have reported their busiest year in
recent history. Inventory is at an all-time low and bike parts are backordered because of the
increased demand. Sports Page reported that customers have come from all over the
northeast to get their bikes repaired and to purchase new bikes.
The comprehensive bike/pedestrian network, now under construction, is essential to provide a
safe, healthier alternative for commuting to work and shopping. A functional well-utilized trail
and path network benefits not only our regional economy, but the whole community in many •
other ways. When cyclists and pedestrians use the paths for commuting and recreation, their
general health, vitality, and quality of life improves. The community benefits with less traffic
congestion, improved air quality, and lower health-related costs.
