THAT'S IT, RAM IT DOWN THE LOCAL PROPERTY OWNERS AND TAXPAYERS THROATS, EVEN IF THEY DON'T WANT IT. Great way to make friends with the locals! My beautiful and unique property borders this proposed trail and is certain to lure trail users. I walk the rail bed nearly every day and have for 24 years ...
