Yesterday’s 90-minute meeting at the Marie Boe Building on the County Fairgrounds was a clash of values: the 82 percent of islanders who would like to have a new long walking and bicycle trail on the island vs. the owners of picturesque working farms whose lands would be modified to some degree by a proposed trail.

CNL2 is working on an extensive report on yesterday’s meeting. While we are preparing that report (Part 2), here is an interview we conducted of the highest-ranking County official in the meeting, District 1 Council member Christine Minney (Part 1). This interview took place immediately after the 90-minute public meeting ended.

This CNL video is approximately 2 minutes in duration.
