MSSNY encourages towns, cities and counties across New York State to make recreational physical activity more available by utilizing existing or building walking paths, bicycle trails, swimming pools, beaches and community recreational and fitness facilities; and encourage municipalities to provide tax breaks and grants toward these community projects in the same way that they support the building and maintenance of highways, shipping harbors, railroad lines, and airports.
