Mountain, i mean it seems theres been some number of years where there has not been inadequate signage and quite the contrary. People have been given permission to go. To put up a fence doesnt feel good. Given permission by outside parties who have indicated this is a fun trail to go use. As soon as i heard this i directed my staff, find any place that there is access going on that shouldnt be in our watershed. I want to hear about it right now because we are stewards of that watershed. If we can find them, we will engage in a process. I think coming from the point of view that our job is to protect the watershed and provide reasonable access and i think we can do that.

And is there a sign on the gate that says that there will be a meeting to discuss the connector trail and receive input . Not yet. Well, it seems like that should happen right away. That seems like the minimum
