I thank Larry for his service in repping our area for 14 yrs.
However, I support Brandon Lewke for the seat that Larry currently inhabits.
Having a board member like Brandon, one that has a better handle on providing multi use(M/U) access to properly designed trails within MROSD lands is a good plan IMO.
Larry's stance against M/U access to the Mindego Hill fireroad-trail showcases his just plain wrongheadedness in trails access on publicly funded lands.
This specific fireroad-trail former ranch road had been used for years by mt bike riders,horse+hiker alike w/o one single documented negative impact on habitat.
The shaky justification by Larry to vote a ban mt biking from this trail(fireroad) due a to a questionable sighting of an endangered species by a MROSD funded biologist and allow 4 wheel drive MROSD trucks to continue barreling around on the same fireroad was-is just plain wrong.
Time to shake up the MROSD board of stale members such as Larry, I support multi use trails,balanced access of recreational entity's such as mt bike riding.
I support Brandon Lewke for MROSD board
