NORWICH – A special meeting of the City of Norwich Common Council was held Tuesday night to extend an agreement between the city and the Chenango Greenway Conservancy.

In December of 2008, the City of Norwich adopted a resolution which allowed a license agreement to be created between the city and the Greenway Conservancy. On Tuesday night, a resolution was adopted to extend the agreement by a period of five years, for a total term of 10 years, expiring on Dec. 18, 2018.

The conservancy has been working for over a decade to create a walking trail through Norwich and the surrounding area. The Chenango Riverwalk is currently a six-mile-long series of interconnected and stand-alone public recreation trails. According to the organization’s web site, “This trail system helps to preserve the natural beauty and wildlife of the river, as well as the heritage of the Chenango Canal and the former route of the Ontario and Western Railroad.”
