We thought the style, welcoming sign <br />and path simplicity could be something to think about and offer up to the community to resolve <br />our current impasse. In this case, the family has (so kindly) created the path in their own front <br />yard. As we think about the Aldine path, perhaps something equally simple could be <br />developed in a small portion (~5 feet) of the existing right of way, leaving the remainder to our <br />neighbors whose homes sit next to the ROW. While this would likely require making some <br />modifications to the existing fences that sit in/obstruct the ROW, perhaps something simple <br />and lovely along these lines, which would also allow the remaining 20-25 feet to be vacated, <br />could lead to a solution that we could all be happy with? <br />Please take a look and see what you think. And again, thank you for your consideration and all <br />of your work to help reconnect our neighbors and neighborhoods. <br />Sincerely, <br />Olivia and Donald Gault <br />Qbhf!65!pg!29: <br /> <br />
