I was un aware of this meeting and would liked to have voiced my concern.

The parks currently maintaining of this section of the trail is terrible. For several years they have poured wood chips into the puddles, and now we have rotten bogs to walk thru. Leaving in the Rail road ties has been dangerous just to walk on let alone bike.

This trail should be a continuation of the South County Trail, both in style and substance.

Kudos Jarrettison for keeping us apprised.
i think the hikers and runners are OK with a general cleanup but preferred a surface other then asphalt. But that's just one user group and in general, cyclists prefer asphalt.

I agree it should be widened a bit and paved.
