1). The team is working hard to affirm definitions, define the scope of the project, and continue engagement with State, County and Local Staff and Elected officials. 

2). The team is looking to grow--if you are interested in joining in please let us know or reach out to wynsurveying@gmail.com  directly. Additionally, we are looking into the option of a woodland trail through Stimson property and a captain of this sub-project. 

Mr. Wyntergreen provided notes from most recent team meeting

• In an effort to incite continuing discussion, I would suggest the following further breakout of Priority1:
• Determine that the Path will be on one side of any given road segment, not both.
• Develop standards for crossing points as the Path may need to switch from one side to another at certain points.
  

* (1A)  Full Multi-Use facility from Symons Viewpoint by the sewer pump station to the entrance to the entrance to the Sewer Treatment Plant on the west and north sides of the State/County roads. Level turning to gradually increasing grade. Should maximize uses to Alder as this is the heart of the community. This will cause some landscaping adjustments in the right-of-way and may reduce some parking on the outside curve, but will dramatically increase safety and connectivity. Will need to be accompanied by a crosswalk treatment to the Sewer Treatment entrance and the Rubber Tire Trail, and possibly a stop/yield sign for the northbound right turns off the Highway onto the County Road. Once at Symons, will require a crosswalk to Westside in the belly of the road at a location with best sight-visibility to connect to the parking by the sewer pump station.

* (1B) Full Multi-Use facility from Hillsdale to South Avenue. Fairly level on East side, although this will cause some landscaping/mailbox adjustments in the right-of-way, but will dramatically increase connectivity allowing access to the Camelot network/tire trail, etc., but, at Capes Drive will require crosswalk switching sides to the west side. 

* (1C)  First a pedestrian facility from Hillsdale down to Symons Viewpoint on the north and east sides of the Highway due to sloughing and safety considerations. Either ped or full Mixed Use will require significant slope cut'n fill, along with storm drainage and utility accommodations.

* (1D) First a pedestrian facility from South Avenue/Cape Drive to Falls Creek Trail on the westside with substantial grade adjustments and no interim connectivity benefits.

I recommend a driveby to look at these segments and develop pros and cons.
