And I plan to have more specific information about this swap in particular and what kind of access road will be constructed. Keep in mind all of this is proposed and subject to change. As I understand it, nothing is finalized. If you have any specific concerns, please e-mail me at lesliet@theind.com and I'll address them with the parties involved in the deal. - Leslie Turk 2 Sun, 24 May 2009 22:28:50 +0100 http://www.theind.com/news/9-indnews/4409#comment-1163 Turk's article glosses over the following "...(a small portion of the horse farm is needed by the city to construct an emergency access road from West Bayou Parkway);...". What precisely are the city's needs in this regard and what kind of access road are we looking at adjacent to this section of Greenbriar Subdivision? A follow up please. - Ronnie Judice Sun, 24 May 2009 18:03:58 +0100 http://www.theind.com/news/9-indnews/4409#comment-1139 This is great news. Turning the land into a public park connected to other public space would be a major progressive step forward for Lafayette. I hope the landscape design will include the use of native trees, shrubs and perennials for plantings. We should press the designers for this, as it creates wildlife habitat and allows people to reconnect with our natural heritage. Thanks for the reporting, IND. - JP Thu, 21 May 2009 08:25:25 +0100
