Land Bank Seeks Input On Cady Mountain

A revised draft stewardship & management plan is available for public review, and comments are being accepted through June 15, 2005.

The Land Bank has revised the draft Management Plan for a Cady Mountain property that will soon be open to the public. After input from the public, and in particular from neighborhood residences and members of the Trail Committee, the Land Bank made revisions to address the concerns expressed at the public meetings. Previous Story

The Cady Mountain property is accessed by a problematic private road that has required expensive upkeep and maintenance due to the steepness and underlying bedrock; conditions that have resulted in winter erosion problems.

Some of the provisions in the Management Plan Link to Plan include monitoring the usage of the road with car counters, and monitoring the Land Bank property with trail monitors. The Land Bank will also investigate "alternative access possibilities". Copies are available form the Land Bank office, 378-4402
