The community of Pine Plains was invited to a presentation of the results of a study of the revitalization of Pine Plains. Comments were invited afterwards.
I faced any number of technical difficulties in producing this video, but I have squeezed out the best I could do on the budget I had to work with. My apologies. But what do you expect for nothing?

It is a personal documentary project as described on the right-hand sidebar. The filming and presentation of the public meetings is only for artistic purposes and is not authorized — or even recognized — by the town government. The town has its own website at www.pineplains-ny.gov.
