Montebello Ponds Park named in honor of Mayor Gorman

(February 2010) The Village Board of Trustees has named the newly acquired park in Montebello Pines, "Kathryn Gorman Ponds Park", in honor of Mayor Gorman.  The development of the Pines community and the creation of the park was the centerpiece of Kathy Gorman’s tenure. Those who will enjoy this park should long remember her critical role in its creation.  Work will begin this spring on the creation of pathways and a small parking lot using environmentally sensitive materials.  In order to make certain that he park shall never be used or sold for any other purpose, the Board has impressed this land with a public trust such that any other use would require the approval of the New York State Legislature.
