HIGHMOUNT – Jim Seward, R-Milford, one of the ranking members of the state Senate, will be joined at 11 a.m. Monday, by state Olympic Regional Development Authority President/CEO Ted Blazer, to announce details of The Belleayre Resort at Catskill Park.

Environmental clearances were announced in September on a $28 million project that, when complete, is envisioned as “the only upscale, four-season resort directly serving the New York metropolitan area.”

It would include the Wildacres Resort and Highmount Golf Club; The Highmount Spa Resort; Belleayre Mountain Ski Center; resort programming and recreational programming.

The first new Catskill ski resort in decades would be 37 miles southeast of Oneonta.
