Discuss ACFC plan - Management plan shared with our
committee to give feedback. Jimmy, the Trails Comm
recommendation, shared his ideas on how to move forward
keeping in mind folks who feel there should be mostly
conservation and those that believe there should be recreation.
Encourage the ACFC to find a multi-use trail that has the
least impact and connects existing trail networks, in order to
provide safe recreational opportunities for residents and enjoy
the natural ecosystems responsibility.
Avoid the wetlands from Urbanik to Maple Wind.
Meadow Meander goes through Sonya Matteson’s property.
Need to move the trail off of her property and off her septic
system.
Discuss spring trail work needs/plans - work day in honor of
Francis Churchill. Hannah will measure for bridges on the
work day. Molly will put it on FPF and has put it out to
their friend group.
