Gardiner’s Natural Resources Inventory & Map (NRI)
In January 2021, the Gardiner Open Space Commission and Environmental Conservation Commission, in partnership with the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation, completed a comprehensive Natural Resources Inventory (NRI) for the Town of Gardiner.
This detailed inventory & map is available for public use and serves as a valuable resource for residents, planners, developers, and conservation advocates.
The NRI highlights Gardiner’s:
Freshwater resources
Parks and open spaces
Natural habitats and scenic landscapes
Ecological and cultural features
These assets are essential to Gardiner’s continued prosperity, quality of life, and responsible growth. You can explore all available data and reports using the Interactive NRI Mapping Tool.
