Pave the dirt roads please…. This is so far out of your purview
Wow! This could be the first thing that resembles a capital improvement project to come down the pike in county district 4 in over 50 years.
Where has all the district 4 tax dollars gone?
just fix the roads we have now first then you can go build a trail or paint a crosswalks whatever
Nooooooo!!!!! We have a lot of wildlife out here that will be encroached upon – and many residents who bought homes here for the peace & quiet & relative remoteness. And the already existing Hawthorne bike trail is a stone’s throw from your projected new project! – so there is already many, many miles of access for bikers to peddle their hearts out. There are SO MANY other projects that could benefit SE Gainesville! Why this, when it benefits so relatively few?!?!
