Wednesday, November 19, 2008VIDEO: City Presents Gift to West End Trails Group
City Manager Jim Gailey (right) and Councilor Jim Hughes present the West End Trails Committee with a gift: a sign to mark the beginning of the new Clark’s Pond Trail. Gailey and Hughes presented the gift during the group’s meeting at the Western Avenue Fire Station. Councilor-elect Tom Coward and planning board member Mark Gandolfo also attended the meeting, which was run by city councilor and trail committee member Tom Blake and South Portland Land Trust head Richard Rottkov. During the meeting, the West End group presented a slide show summarizing its accomplishments over the past three years and discussed its plans for future development of hiking and walking trails and bike trails in the city’s West End, near the Maine Mall. Gailey said the city will give six more signs to the group to help mark the trail. Posted by Scott Hersey on 11/19 at 09:48 PM
