All - My apologies, but I will be unable to attend the meeting. I did find out, however, that the DOH has turned down our letter of intent to apply for the White Park trail extension down to Don Knotts Blvd. It may have been a technical error in the application, nonetheless, it was not approved unfortunately. I will keep trying to work toward getting state/federal money for that but if others have ideas please let me know. Thank you Christiaan
