 Fall colors on the Dahlgren Trail. Photo (C) Chris McClintock, 2020. By Jim Lynch, president, Friends of the DRHT It's been a busy month on the trail. We had rain interspersed with some nice days. Our friend and expert photographer Chris McClintock is out there almost every morning taking fabulous photos, which she posts on her Facebook page. Check them out — especially if you aren't lucky enough to be able to visit the DRHT daily. We’re still trying to scope out improvements to our parking lots, particularly the smaller ones at Comorn Road and Indiantown Road. We’re hoping to get a grant to get the work started. We should learn sometime soon if our application was approved. We continue to look for opportunities to acquire an acre or two at road crossings so that we can add to or expand our parking spaces.
Today I met with a neighboring landowner to talk about a trespassing issue. Some bike riders had turned off on his farm road, which parallels the trail. While we were chatting, the trespassers came riding by. We stopped them and they told us that this was their first time on the trail and they got confused about where to go. It got me thinking that while those of us who are out on the trail all the time aren’t going to get lost, visitors who are new to the DRHT can get confused by the road crossings. It’s rare, but it happens. We need to think about where some signage could help our newest trail users. Hope you've been taking advantage of the warm November weather to get out for a walk or ride. See you out there! Jim Lynch President, Friends of the DRHT

Let me know how I can help. I have tools and equipment to support most operations. Ref space at the parking areas: I gave Warren V a digitized copy of all of the RR boundary survey plats. Start with identifying the boundaries of the parking areas. I have the survey equipment that can do that. Siince I am not an LS, I can't set boundaries but if markers are there, I can help find them. You may have more space than you think. Also, I suggest setting NO TRESPASSING signs at the RR boundaries at farm roads facing the trail so users know not to go further. Keeps trail uses on trail property.

Thanks Ian; you've been one of our best supporters since day one! Did you do the recent grading at the Comorn parking lot? I wonder if there's something you could do at the Indiantown Road lot? 2/2/2021 12:23:12 am
Can I ride a bike around that area? I like that kind of scenery to drive around there is so enjoyable. Boundary Survey Company In Marathahalli. A boundary survey is an important component of pre-construction due diligence. The boundary survey establishes the perimeter of a property as it relates to a site’s legal description. A boundary survey is a formal means of defining the boundaries of a property. It is primarily concerned with determining the corners of a parcel of land. Before buying, dividing, improving, or building on land, most people hire a boundary surveyor. A land surveyor will prepare a drawing after completing a boundary survey. A boundary survey is recommended before buying, subdividing, improving, or building on land. Surveying the parcel before these activities ensures that the expense and frustration of defending a lawsuit, moving a building, or resolving a boundary dispute can be avoided. Qualified and experienced land surveyors we are constantly involved in every element of property boundaries and demarcations; whether it is positioning undefined boundaries or assisting in resolving boundary disputes between neighboring owners. We are often instructed to act as an expert witness in boundary disputes and asked to provide the court with detailed boundary survey reports, evidence and statements to resolve ownership disagreements. contact- 82966 98585 sconsurveys http://www.sconsurveys.in/our-services/civil-engineering-companies-bangalore/survey-companies-bangalore/boundary-survey-companies-bangalore/ Leave a Reply. |
