Trail experiences wanted

[Aphillips]

Hello, I would like to hear from people who have
property adjacent to a public trail system. What is
your experience? Any problems? What kind of an
operation do you have? Please feel free to send
your comments privately to me at ap98rd@aol.com
Thanks, Anne

Hello again,

I thought perhaps I should supply some additional
information for you. There is a trail proposed to
go adjacent to my property. Myself and my
neighbors have various concerns regarding this
trail, and are trying to find reliable, relevant
information to help us decide whether we should be
in favor of this or not. Our local trail society
brushes off our concerns as "myths", and in general
have a negative attitude which doesn't foster much
trust on our part. Following is a direct quote from
a representative of our local trail society, just to
show you what kind of attitude we are dealing with.

"But "urbans" using those trails will be walking with
respect and care. And those concerned about who
will pay for these trails should not lose sight of the
fact that, for the most part, it's the urbanites' tax
dollars that prop up the agricultural community
when it faces tough times."

So we decided to try and gather our own
information from people who have direct
experience. If you can share you experiences we
would appreciate it, and if you know of someone
who does, please feel free to forward them my
email address.

Not in favour of trails. Privacy issues. More garbage. Noise if ski doos go riping through during the winter. Motor bikes duing the summer. Strangers passing through, never know when some deranged unknowns go wacky and come onto private property. Like go some where else public road ways or parks. Not in favor at all. Disrupt wild life. Leave nature in natural habitat.
