A limited system of roadways <br />and alleys was platted more than a century ago in the Morse Island Park and <br />Pleasantview subdivisions, which prirtuuily created narrow lakeshore lots but <br />also resulted in a small number of inland lots not abutting the lakeshore and <br />needing access to the lake. These platted corridors exist today as walking <br />trails \^ch on occasion are used for vehicular access. Since most lots do <br />abut the shoreline, use of the interior roadway frstem has been primarily by <br />the owners of interior lots, and by owners of lakeshore lots with shoreline <br />slopes that prohibit direct lake access. <br />Vehicular access is necessary for nearly all island properties on occasion, <br />hence the interior roadways are an important transportation element for Big <br />Island. Overuse of the road system by residents or the general public is of <br />concern, since the roads are not improved. Erosion and trespass are two main <br />issues, because the roadways are not marked and they often traverse steep <br />slopes, especially where lanes extend to the lakeshore. <br />Big Island laauei <br />By virtue of its unique geographic aspects. Big Island presents a number of <br />issues that the City must addr^ on an ongoing basis: <br />1.Use and maintenance of interior road system; access to <br />inland properties; overuse by vehicles <br />2.Public use of interior road system, trespass on private <br />property <br />3.Prcuure to accommodate more year-round residential <br />uses, with concurrent expectation of greater services <br />4.Uncontrolled recreational use of adjacent bays for <br />partying <br />5.
