  • Town officials held a ribbon-cutting on Oct. 11, 2022 to welcome visitors to the 37-acre, Town Center Park, open to the public, owned and managed by the Town of Clifton Park.  The new park space is accessible from both Moe Road and the Moe Road Multi-Use Trail, as well as from Maxwell Drive at its intersection with Southside Drive, via new driveways.  Bike racks and small parking areas are located at both main entrances to the park. The park features a 12-foot wide, paved path that can be shared by pedestrians, bicyclists, strollers, wheelchairs and is designed to be ADA accessible. The width of the path can accomodate groups and a mix of users.  The trail is open every day, and will be maintained throughout all seasons.  New crosswalks are located on Maxwell Drive connecting the new Town Center Park directly to the Town Center shopping, offices, restaurants, residential living, and community activities.  New pedestrian lighting fixtures are also being installed along this main, east-west trail.  Signage and benches are still planned to be installed as part of this initial phase.
  • The Town of Clifton Park acquired the property in February 2018 from the Shenendehowa Central School District with strong public support. In 2019 the Town Board initiated and conducted a one-year planning process, engaging with the public to create the community vision for the new park as a welcoming natural area and gathering place to enjoy the woodlands in Town Center.  Future phases include, but are not limited to, nature trails looping off this main trail, and a vision for interconnections to other locations identified in the Town Center Park Master Plan that the Clifton Park Town Board adopted in 2020.

Park District Advisory Committee:
     As the Town of Clifton Park has grown, so has its many neighborhood parks. Locating parks, playgrounds, ball fields and tennis courts within neighborhoods and developments has been a long-standing Town priority. Residents enjoy convenience and accessibility, greatly enhancing their quality of life. To insure the local parks continue to meet the needs of the neighborhoods they serve the Town has created “Park Districts”. It has been Town policy to create local Park District Committees, in order to provide for neighborhood control and decision-making. Residents within a Park District pay a small annual Park District Levy (tax) on their yearly tax bill, to support and maintain their neighborhood park. In order to provide for the on-going needs of the neighborhood parks, and to oversee the expenditures of park funds for regular maintenance such as grass cutting, painting of playground equipment, spring clean-up, lighting, fencing and signage, each Park District has a Park District Advisory Committee.
