Dear Commissioners;
I walk on Peets Hill daily. This evening I came across a very disturbing line of posts whichcuts off the top loop. Peets Hill gets so much use by walkers, runners, dog walkers, bikers, et
al. To have the top portion of the trail cut off not only inconveniences all the users but ishorribly unaesthetic.
Those of us who walk our dogs respect the new trail when it says on leash only. I don't takemy dog on that new trail.
If GVLT wants to fence off the opening of the trail at the top of Peets Hill, that would beacceptable. However what they are doing is not.
I never saw anyone from GVlT on Peets Hill with a clipboard and a survey. Apparently theyonly asked their donors, many of whom probably don't even use the trail.
Very poor planning especially for those of us who use the trail regularly.There will be a lot of protest of this so you may want to get ahead of it.
Thanks for your consideration.
