DescPROMOTING REGIONAL IDENTITY - We make the Hudson Valley more attractive to residents and employers by helping to create a shared sense of place and stewardship that is recognized far beyond our borders. We protect world-class scenic beauty; conserve family farms that supply fresh food to local and New York City consumers and drive a growing farm-to-table movement; create parks offering recreation and inviting spaces for people to gather; and mobilize residents to speak out against threats to the Hudson River and other irreplaceable natural assets that make the valley a great place to live and visit.Desc

DescSTRENGTHENING RESILIENCY - We further climate-change adaptation and resilience in our land conservation and community planning work and develop new climate-mitigation policies consistent with our conservation values. We provide guidance for riverfront communities to adapt to and mitigate rising sea levels and other climate-change impacts, and develop strategies for embracing renewable energy without sacrificing core assets - iconic views, farmland, critical habitat, cultural/historic resources - that residents and visitors cherish. We help wildlife adapt by conserving lands containing irreplaceable (and flood-resistant) habitat and migration pathways. We also create and manage our parks to serve as models of resiliency.Desc

DescBUILDING COMMUNITY - We ensure that our work benefits all of the region's residents, urban and rural, especially as demographic shifts continue. We respond to local concerns in diverse communities by partnering with residents and providing them with the expertise to turn neglected natural areas into safe places to exercise, relax, join with family and friends, and teach children about wildlife. In addition to uniting neighborhoods in a shared purpose, carrying out these initiatives affords much-needed skill-building opportunities for teens and has the potential to attract new investment and jobs - the key for revitalizing our cities.Desc

Form And Line ReferenceFormAndLineReferenceDescExplanationExplanationTxt
Part V, Line 4:USE OF ENDOWMENT FUNDS: As articulated in detail in Part VII of Schedule R, Scenic Hudson, Inc. (SH) and The Scenic Hudson Land Trust, Inc. (SHLT) are related, tax-exempt organizations. Neither organization holds a "permanent endowment," that is, a fund intended by the donor to preserve its original principal amount and thus where spending is restricted to income and other investment earnings. SH and SHLT do hold four "quasi-endowment" funds, which had a combined market value of $200,324,461 as of June 30, 2020, as follows: The Scenic Hudson Board Designated Fund is held by SH for the purpose of supporting the annual operating budget. Spending from the Board Designated Fund is determined annually by the board based on a percentage of the average balance over a rolling twelve-quarter period. As of June 30, 2020, the balance of the Board Designated Fund was $20,169,468. The Kathryn W. Davis Fund for Park Planning and Community Land Use (the "Kathyrn W. Davis Fund") is a donor-restricted fund held by SH. This fund is used to support SH's staff, consultants and other costs for park design, park management and land use planning. Spending from the Kathryn W. Davis Fund is by application of the same spending rate determined by the Board and applied to SH's Board Designated Fund. As of June 30, 2020, the balance of the Kathryn W. Davis Fund was $5,005,762. The combined value of the Board Designated Fund and Kathryn W. Davis Fund ($25,175,230) is reported in Schedule D, Part V of the Scenic Hudson 990. Because of the small size of the Board Designated Fund relative to SH's operations, and the restricted purpose of the Kathryn W. Davis Fund, Scenic Hudson is highly dependent on donor contributions to meet its annual operating needs. The Lila Acheson and Dewitt Wallace Hudson Valley Land Preservation Endowment (the "Wallace Fund") is a donor-restricted fund held by SHLT. It is principally used to support capital and other costs of purchasing land and conservation easements to meet SHLT's land preservation goals. Spending from the Wallace Fund is by application of the same spending rate determined by the Board and applied to SH's Board Designated Fund. Special appropriations are permitted under exceptional circumstances by Board approval, subject to donor restrictions. As of June 30, 2020, the balance of the Wallace Fund was $174,192,280. The Conservation Easement Enforcement Fund (the "Easement Enforcement Fund") is a board-designated fund held by SHLT. Appropriations are made at the discretion of the Board, generally by application of the same spending rate determined by the Board and applied to SH's Board Designated Fund. Spending is used primarily to cover legal and other costs incurred to support the perpetual obligation to monitor and enforce conservation easements and to defend lands held in fee for conservation. As of June 30, 2020, the balance of the Easement Enforcement Fund was $956,948. The capital costs of preserving the highest priority conservation lands in the Hudson Valley far exceed appropriations available from the Wallace Fund. Accordingly, Scenic Hudson's land preservation program - which is run primarily through The Scenic Hudson Land Trust - is highly dependent on capital contributions from individuals, foundations and government entities. The combined value of the Wallace Fund and Easement Enforcement Fund ($175,149,228) is excluded from this 990 and reported in Schedule D, Part V of The Scenic Hudson Land Trust 990.
Part X, Line 2:DISCLOSURE OF UNCERTAIN TAX POSITIONS: The Organization believes it had no uncertain tax positions as of June 30, 2020 and 2019 in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 740, "Income Taxes," which provides standards for establishing and classifying any tax provisions for uncertain tax positions.

See Schedule O, reference to Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15 for more details.
PART I, LINE 4B:NOTE ON SUPPLEMENTAL NONQUALIFIED RETIREMENT PLAN: During the year ended June 30, 2015, Scenic Hudson, Inc. ("SH") and Edward Sullivan, President of SH, entered into a long-term employment agreement under IRC Section 457(f). The terms of the agreement were satisfied in January 2020, which resulted in a one-time lump sum payment of $500,000 (the "payment") to Mr. Sullivan. Subsequent to the aforementioned payment, SH and Mr. Sullivan entered into a new long-term employment agreement under IRC Section 457(f). The terms of the agreement run through January 31, 2025 at which time Mr. Sullivan will complete his commitment and receive a one-time lump sum payment of $400,000. Since Mr. Sullivan provides essential services to The Scenic Hudson Land Trust, Inc. ("SHLT"), which has no employees, SHLT has agreed to provide SH with funds sufficient to enable SH to make payments due under each of the aforementioned plans. Accordingly, SHLT has and will recognize this obligation over the term of the agreements. During the year ended June 30, 2020, SHLT recognized $90,170 of expense related to these agreements. During the year ended June 30, 2016, SH and Steven Rosenberg, Senior Vice President of SH, entered into a long-term employment agreement under IRC Section 457(f). The terms of the agreement run through June 14, 2021 at which time Mr. Rosenberg will complete his commitment and receive a one-time lump sum payment of $230,000. Since Mr. Rosenberg also provides essential services to SHLT, which has no employees, SHLT has agreed to provide SH with funds sufficient to enable SH to make payments due under the plan. Accordingly, SHLT will recognize this obligation over the term of the agreement. During the year ended June 30, 2020, SHLT recognized $46,000 of expense related to this agreement.

Accordingly, the Land Trust acquires conservation easements and normally holds title to program related investments in land and parks owned by the Organization.

As HHFT does not have any employees, SH provides HHFT with the services of its employees, office space and general administrative support through a services agreement.
