Over the weekend, Andy Preslopski & Nicole Stauber, members of the South Side Improvement Association, completed a major project for this year.
With the generous help of the city DPW who supplied the millings & Main Street First who supplied liability insurance, they leveled & compacted a generous hard-surfaced parking area for visitors wanting to park & bike ride on the trail.
In winter nearby residents will have good parking that doesn’t turn to rutted mud in the spring.
This has been our major project of this year. We are finding that elbow grease makes a huge difference in a neighborhood & we all feel the South Side is a good place to live!
Sadly unless there is some funding to pave this area, it will get plowed up or turn to a muddy rut filled area once Winter hits and it gets plowed a few times and thaws and freezes and thaws, etc.
It was a nice thought tho.
