For transparency's sake, trail construction plans filed w/ the state are available here: drive.google.com/file/d/1zCP2za… Proximity of the new trail to private homes in the Honey Branch community is shown on page 10.

Per plans filed w/ the state, this new trail (a joint effort w/ App Voices & TNC) will be dumping ATVs off the mtn right in front of homes on Honey Branch near St Paul. If you're a nearby homeowner & start seeing traffic/noise/runoff issues, let us know: clinchcoalition.org/leave-a-tip

Since local officials have failed to step up, several regional nonprofits are hosting a public input & listening session on 10/25 at 6pm at the Norton Community Center. Officials are being invited but will be sent input from the session even if they don’t show.

Good op-ed by Rees Shearer on nuclear plants being planned for several low-income SWVA neighborhoods through a closed-door process that, for the last year, has excluded input from local residents. cardinalnews.org/2023/10/16/sma…

Here is still more evidence that when people have their phones with them, they are less likely to interact with others, and enjoy being near new people less. To reduce loneliness among adolescents, get phones out of schools now. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
