Agenda preview: The Conservation Advisory Council is scheduled to meet Tuesday, October 20, 2026. The items below are planned business for that meeting. A leaf-blower panel and process discussion is on the Conservation Advisory Council's October 20 agenda, alongside reports on trails, litter cleanup, gardening and the Mayor's Monarch Pledge. The Village's dated meeting notice lists a 7:30 p.m. start. The posted agenda places the leaf-blower item after the council's program updates. It identifies the subject as a discussion. Any recommendations or decisions from the October 20 meeting remain to be reported after it takes place. The trail-crew update concerns a council subgroup with a continuing role in local trail upkeep. The Village's Croton Trails Crew page explains that the crew helps maintain the January Wines Memorial Trail System and meets during the hiking season to clean targeted sections. It directs residents interested in upcoming work dates to the Village calendar and offers a notification list through the group leader. Another scheduled report comes from CLEAN, the Croton Litter-Free Education Advocacy Neighborhood initiative. The Village describes CLEAN as a council subgroup that organizes support and volunteers to keep Croton clean. Its October 20 update is listed separately from the trail, Garden Club and Mayor's Monarch Pledge reports. The council is also scheduled to receive an update listed as NRI and to review, comment on and consider approval of minutes. The agenda groups these recurring reports with the leaf-blower discussion, giving residents a place to follow several strands of the council's environmental work in one meeting. The council's official page describes its purpose as preserving and improving the Village's natural and built environment. Readers can follow the full order of business on the October 20 meeting page.
