This resident was very concerned about the <br /> harm to wildlife that these vehicles pose . Evidently deer, fox <br /> • rabbits, minks, beavers , racoons , and other wildlife inhabit this <br /> area. The trail along Rice Creek is an excellent place for hiking <br /> especially for persons who wish to observe nature. However, the <br /> three-wheel vehicles are damaging the foliage, seedlings, and terrain <br /> of this nature area. <br /> For these reasons, I ask that the Ramsey County Sheriff' s Department <br /> consider means to curb this vehicle use. If "No Vehicles Permitted" <br /> signs are approved, the City could easily post the area. Perhaps <br /> frequent checks by patrolmen or rangers could be made in an effort to <br /> curb this vehicle activity. <br /> Your response to ways to preserve this fine natural open space would <br /> be greatly appreciated. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> War..:::: ;;W*--e?-~o't._.1 <br /> Mary Saarion, Director <br /> Parks , Recreation and Forestry <br /> MS/sl <br /> • <br />
