BUT to add another loop and then two north/south connections, all PAVED is tragic. when i asked weitzel why the second loop, he replied to facilitate senior exercise stations, when i asked why they couldn't be added to the existing loop, he had no reply. he is literally destroying the park. these redundant paths, and paving, are actually the cedar park portion of the trail network plan, which he will not acknowledge. hopefully council will say no to the trail network plan; apparently there is no control possible after a yes vote, regardless of what is said. i have learned that weitzel told runners who wanted the gavel path to remain, that he would add another path if they like, a gavel one. can you imagine that; he disregards the nature aspect of the park so much he would build two paths side by side.michael molovinskyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12581039755319742687noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-951782330457966647.post-53258347189402017092010-03-23T09:39:59.601-04:002010-03-23T09:39:59.601-04:00Passing by Cedar Beach and the Rose Garden last Sa...Passing by Cedar Beach and the Rose Garden last Saturday, one could see flooding everywhere and certainly covering the newly dug<br />cycling paths.
