Proposed 76-Site RV Resort in New York Draws Concerns

About 25 to 30 Hartwick, N.Y., residents attended the Planning Board meeting on Tuesday night to voice concerns over the proposed Goey Straits Campground, a 76-unit RV resort planned for the hillside across from Cooperstown Dreams Park. The project, designed by Napierala Consulting, calls for prefabricated RV units on permanent pads with water, septic, and electric service, plus amenities such as a pool and gated entry. Developers said the terraced layout would preserve views toward the ballfields and that on-site infrastructure, including a new well, septic systems, and stormwater controls, would meet county and state standards. They also brought in traffic engineer Gordon Stansbury of GTS Consulting, who said his study found no significant impact, projecting about 30 to 40 cars entering and exiting during peak hours. Residents strongly disagreed.
