1977 – the Town of Ramapo received from Mitchell Miller and James M. Jacobson a gift of approximately 150 acres located in what is now the Village of Wesley Hills.

The Property is currently undeveloped except for a cellular wireless telephone tower.

153 acres of the property had been slated to be a golf course are now a town park. The past town supervisor, mayor, and Village trustees had supported the golf course idea. New Supervisor St. Lawrence and the Ramapo Town Board supported preservation. (Higher Ground; Winter 2003/2004; http://www.anjec.org/html/hgnew.htm)
