On Thursday, 9/10, Open Trails NJ was given an opportunity to present at the Medford Lakes Town Council meeting. We made the following key points:
- The Motorized Access Plan (M.A.P.) closes 58%, or 274 miles, of the road and trail network to motorized vehicles – many of which have been used for decades
- The MAP will be ineffective and will only impact law abiding outdoor enthusiasts and was developed with no public input
- Federal Recreational Trails Funding was granted on the premise of creating a maintenance program for 600+ miles of roads, but was used to actually reduce milage to 202
- The public must be engaged and we must start with a blank sheet of paper. Scrap the MAP
