Organizing meeting of Save Our Trails
Feb 28, 10am-12pm at
Willow Glen Baptist Church
Everyone present introduced themselves. The mission statement of Save Our Trails was read.
The group discussed the current objective/proposed strategy to attempt to defeat the development of the old railroad property to possibly be purchased by Asante Real Estate Group. Two community members presented information about how much money the City of San Jose had to purchase this piece of property that is being proposed to be developed by Asante Real Estate. We discussed what compromises the community might be willing to make.
Organization of the group was discussed as a group. We resolved that there would be 4 subgroups to work on specific matters for the 3 different sections of the trail. We will also refer to the entire proposed trail development as the 3 Creeks Trail, which includes sections in District 3, District 6 and District 7. The 4 subgroups are named, Guadalupe to Coyote Creek, Outreach, Trestle/Los Gatos Creek to Guadalupe and Finance.
