Concord Avenue Land Management Plan In discussions with Conservation, it was decided there will not be an opportunity to start the survey work early, which would trigger a barrage of voluntary public input needing to be handled. No activity is expected on this project until July 1, 2023. In the meantime Keith has a land management plan consultant quote and will obtain a surveyor quote so things can hit the ground running when the fiscal year begins. The planned Brookhaven area trail and ACROSS connections are expected to be in place in 2024. Landlocked Forest Permission The Burlington Landlocked Forest sign and trail name group has officially submitted its permission request to the Burlington Selectboard and is waiting for an agenda slot. Approval without issues is expected, after which GCC can submit its request for an ACROSS route through the Forest. Field visits to plan that route are likely this summer. Spring route auditing for missing signs, etc. All except routes A, D and F are done. Bobak will audit A and Eileen will do F, and Bob will do H.
