Chairman report –
Invited to and made a presentation to the Newtown Woman’s Club on the
activities of the Committee. Was well received.
Spoke with Rob Sibley regarding using the GPS to map trails. At this time
there no resources to process any trails that are mapped and the GPS devices can
not be taken out without a town employee being present.
Pole Bridge is being surveyed, look for a corrected map to be produced, along
with boundary markers. Significantly different than the trails that were already
there.
Point ‘O Rocks parcel should be one of the committee’s short term objectives.
Rob does not have any of the NBLA maps.
