Saratoga, Ca., 95070
Attention: Dan Trinidad, Parks and Recreation Dept.
Dear Mr.Trinidad,
Attached are signed petitions from the residents of Douglass Lane
and the surrounding neighborhood that includes the following streets:
Douglass Lane, Black Walnut Court, Minocqua Court, Kenosha Court,
Nutwood Lane, Toas Drive and Donna Lane.
To be precise, one hundred and six (106) tax paying residents,
representing 100% of the households in this residential neighborhood,
are in direct opposition to Douglass Lane being included in the
Recreational Trail Plan in the Saratoga Master Plan for the Parks
and Recreational Department.
As residents of Saratoga we do not feel that this type of
Recreational Trail in a quiet, serene, residential neighborhood is
appropriate for this area. This Recreational Trail would be detrimental
to the area and would impact our homes in a negative manner.
We the petitioners, aze adamant that this 100% solidarity against the
project demonstrates that we fully expect and demand that you, our
duly represented city officials, respond and support our petition to
remove Douglass Lane from the Recreational Trail Master Plan Map
for the City of Saratoga.
Sincerely yours, ~
Lydia Norcia omenic Norcia

GARY PASTRE & SALLY STREAM
14230 DOUGLASS LANE
SARATOGA, CA 95070
March 19, 1993
Dear Park and Recreation Commission members,
We were surprised at the resistance to the construction of the Carnelian Glen
Trail at the hearing you held last month and decided to see if there were
others in the community who felt as we do, that the trail should be built. So
we set out to collect a few signatures. Enclosed are the results of our very
limited efforts . (Boy Scout trips and other vacations prevented our collecting
more...) You'll find 60 signatures on these petitions from the ranks of jog-.
gers, mothers with baby strollers, and recreational walkers.
We urge you to continue work on this trail.
We also asked petition signers if they were in favor of the Douglass Lane
Trail. We've enclosed that petition as well.
Thanks for your work,
Sally Stream
We, the undersigned, urge the Saratoga Park and Recreation Commission to
construct the city trail along the city easement, and thus connect Douglass
Lane to Carnelian Glen. Completion of this trail would add another link to
our city's .growing trail system, allowing us to enjoy the heritage of our rural
setting on foot. This particular trail would also fulfill the wish of Mrs . Pace
whose pear orchard became today's Carnelian Glen. Prior to the development
of Carnelian Glen, Douglass Lane residents walked through Mrs . Pace's or-
chard to the village. Children biked and walked through it to get to Red-
wood School. This right-of-way would have had continued use had the city
trail been constructed.
