Troy Duffin doesn't have a problem with private pri-vate trails in developments throughout the Snyderville Basin, but the director of Mountain Trails Foundation, said the situation in Pinebrook is getting out of control. It's all started recently, and by recently, Duffin said about 2 years ago. "Pinebrook is the only area it has happened in," he added. At issue is how much of the Pinebrook Perimeter trail, constructed con-structed around the subdivision several years ago is public. Ted Barnes, an attorney for the Pinebrook Master Association, said though trail developers' intentions were noble, they failed to consider one important point while making mak-ing alterations to area trails several sev-eral years ago. "They started making plans for private property," Barnes said. Pinebrook is a Snyderville Basin subdivision located almost directly across Interstate 80 from Jeremy Ranch, east of Summit Park. What sets, the roughly 25-year-old neighborhood apart from the Basin's many other subdivision's, Barnes said, is the amount of open space residents own and control in the area. "There are some people who would like to see everything public," Barnes said. The Pinebrook Perimeter trail aligns with the border of Pinebrook. The trail starts near Gorgoza Park on Pinebrook's west side, near Kilby Road, and runs south until reaching the Toll Canyon area, where it takes a sharp left and winds east along the entire south side of Pinebrook until it overlooks Ecker Hill Middle School. After another sharp left, the trail travels trav-els down the mountainside and comes out near the school and Pinebrook Boulevard. The entire Pinebrook Perimeter Trail appears on a 2001 trail map. published by Mountain Trails Foundation in conjunction with the Snyderville Basin Special Recreation Some misunderstand tax idea Continued from A-1 "I think the benefits are not worth the cost. I think you could do better things with the same money," LaGuardia said, adding, "I'm a pretty liberal guy. I'm not against taxes. I think it's absurd taking a significant amount of money from each business." The City Council has barely begun debating the proposed tax. Public debates are scheduled later this month, including an Oct. 31 public hearing. Main Street leaders want the government to create what's being called an 'Old Town Business Improvement District.' The district would have taxing authority over the Main Street core and the tax could generate about $60,000 per year starting in 2003. The tax would be based on a formula used to figure business licenses. If the district is created, all businesses within it would have to pay or risk losing their business licenses. The tax would be capped at $1,000 per year per business. Only a few would have to pay that much. Most retailers would have to pay between $200 and $300 per Local's Special is back!

District. However, at Barnes' request, on behalf of the Pinebrook Master Association, the western portion of the trail, which runs between Gorgoza Park and Toll Canyon was removed from the organization's 2002 map, Duffin said. "Whatever we call public is a gift," Duffin said, adding that the recreation district maintains and polices all of its trails. But once a trail is declared private, from a recreation district standpoint, stand-point, that activity ceases. The remaining portion of the Pinebrook Perimeter trail, on the 2002 map, Barnes said, has always been public and the recreation district has never maintained trails located on Pinebrook private property. "There was no countywide trails system," Barnes said, about a time several years ago, when Pinebrook homeowners were envisioning community trails. "People have put $100 million into improvements bordering bor-dering on this trail system." Property values, combined with fears, residents have about the increased number and different dif-ferent types of people, public trails may attract into Pinebrook, are some of his main year while most restaurants would pay between $300 and $500 annually. annu-ally. LaGuardia said he would rather use the money on his own advertising. advertis-ing. "The same amount of money could be spent targeting our own customers," he said. If the City Council approves the district, opponents would have 15 days to collect enough signatures to scuttle the tax. The business alliance list given to the City Council identifies 100 supporters, 13 opponents, 65 businesses busi-nesses that were not contacted and a few businesses that were undecided unde-cided or whose business status was unknown. There has been only limited public debate about the tax thus far. Proponents include the leadership leader-ship of the business alliance, which surveyed the businesses that would be affected. Barb Clark, the executive director direc-tor of the business alliance, said proponents signed a letter of support sup-port during a period from July to September. Clark said the people who gathered signatures explained the tax before businesses signed. SATURDAY Am Tuna Steak concerns, he added. "They don't want to invite a lot of people in," Barnes said. And regardless, laws in Pinebrook have almost always protected about 660 acres of open space in the area, owned by its residents, he said. "1 don't think there's an issue," Barnes said, about whether trails in the area are public or private, adding that he expects people, including some Pinebrook residents to continue lobbying for more public trail access. "They sure may ... They're going to have quite a burden of persuasion." But like it or not, Duffin said with progress being made on trails in the recreation district's Mid-Mountain system, residents may be forced to deal with additional addi-tional trail users passing through the neighborhood in the future. "I don't think the public knows," Duffin said, about unawareness he senses among Pinebrook residents, regarding the trail dispute. At this point, Duffin adds, the next move is up to those living liv-ing in Pjpebrook. "There's all this paranoia," he said. "Residents are going to have to rally." "Each signature took easily 15 to 30 minutes to obtain," Clark said, adding, "It was very specific what it was for and what it was so people understood." She said Down on Main Street , has been removed from the sup- porter list. Clark also says the tax would , help Main Street through marketing. market-ing. "This is a good thing for the community," she said. Felece Marks, who owns F Marks Collectibles, 323 Main St., , said she signed on as a supporter without understanding the tax. "It was a false pretense how it , was presented to me," she said. "It was presented to me not in a way of taxation but more as a marketing market-ing strategy." She also said that paying the tax ; would be tough. Marks said the tax seems like a crutch for businesses that are not doing well. "Times are tough. The market is bad. I don't have another one, percent or a 12 a percent to help people with equal opportunity," , Marks said. "I don't believe I should be taxed any more because businesses aren't making it." |
