Shrimps does have a valid point. There would nothing wrong with charging a toll for nonresidents to use our multimodal trails. It could be set up in the same manner as Sun Pass and/or toll takers. Charge a toll of maybe $5 to access the trails for a day.

So I see this restriction as nothing personal, "It's strictly business" as Michael Corleone said so well in that movie. You know the one I mean.

Very well stated George.I believe the right to drive our carts everywhere is a privilege we pay for with the cost of our homes.

Outsiders are more likely to leave their trash here when they go back home.

One should be skeptical when others offer their experience as a sign of credibility, skill, or knowledge. I have met many folks who claim twenty years of experience when what they really have is one year of experience repeated twenty times.

Just look at the construction sites, workers leave their garbage everywhere for someone else to clean up.
