A midlevel appeals
court is hearing arguments today on the authority of the Adirondack
Park Agency to regulate housing for farmworkers inside the 6-million
acre park.
The state agency is
appealing the November ruling by a judge that the three modular
homes Salim "Sandy" Lewis put on his 1,200-acre farm in Essex are
exempt from APA permit requirements.
The Lewis Family Farm
said it got town permits for the structures, but was fined by the
APA which said the farm failed to obtain the agency's permits.
Arguments are being
heard today in Albany.
