Actually the Pres. for the OMTA was trying to get the MB's club into the organization, gave a presentation at one of the meetings last fall. I sat and discussed what they were doing for about an hour afterward 1on1, and the info I got from him caused my concerns. The cost was for "trail development" on public lands, that did not include any park infrastructure. I also did not like how they already have a "construction contractor" on board to do said work, getting paid for it of course. I just belive you can tap into labor resources in clubs like CORE that would be willing to do alot of this trail development for free, truly volunteering. They were NOT talking buying land from the state, but getting state funding to develop trails as part of the deal.... seems like a long put getting that kind of tax dollars with the current budget limitations with the state.
