COOPERSTOWN – The deadline for RFPs on Brookwood Gardens passed at 5 p.m. today, and Otsego Land Trust Board Chair Harry Levine said "several" proposals for 11 acres of the prime lakeside property have been received.

He declined to get more specific on the number, but said seeking requests for the property brought 9,000 visits to review information on the Land Trust's website.
