Open Space Advisory Board <br />Minutes <br />July 10, 2024 <br />Page 6of7 <br />• Michiko asks for clarification about what the green dotted line is? She's <br />concerned the location will lead to more social trails. Rob provides information <br />and background about why that trail location and surface type were chosen. <br />• Charles suggests adding a hard surface trail near where the sports complex has <br />been rumored to be located and make the green dotted line trail a soft surface as <br />people don't live in RTR and there won't be much foot traffic to/from school. <br />Byron notes that no decision has been made about that area and adding a sports <br />complex is far from certain as there are site constraints and it might not be <br />needed given the proximity to the school, other fields, etc. <br />• Ember suggests we discuss and vote on the eight items in the interest of time. <br />• Susan and Bryon go through the items one at a time and take a vote <br />i.
