�/G�_ i Mr . Greaorv as he has offered many tirnes , would plant it , berm it , put some trees there . Now Mr . Olson , I don' t mean to quote you, I 'm not trying to be a adversary here but , when I questioned you on that today you said that was the perfect place to putsatellites , but frankly Idon' t exactly thing that the purpose of the Orono Council is here today to set up a public restroom over there , that only invites more and more , the only reason the satellites were put there is because we didn' t have the policing power , the police were regulatinq both the parkinq and the fishinq to see that they were trespassing on private property. I sav and I think all the citizens aqree that if you mere]_v take that treeline riaht �cross there . vacate that r�rnnartv . �l.low it t� hP D1anY_ed . allow it t� be bermed , and vou now have started a control of the property . (b) The second thing would to fence the property properly , you can' t really control the property , the use of that and walkinq on the tracks , which everybody aqrees is illeqal , and I don' t believe it will stop with fencinq they will qo out by Orono Orchard Road and cto down there , but at least vou start to qive the appearance that the City of Orono is trvinq to com�lv with the laws which says that you cannot trespass on the railroad tracks . If you don' t the wav it is now it is �ust an invitation to it . While we were there today, there were l5 cars pulled in , every single one of those people who parked there went down the railroad tracks , they don' t across the street and park . If they want to fish there they park there . So the second thina is to fence the propertv and start to improve it with landscapina , which Mr . Greaorv aaain has offere�3 t� c3o , and T think he miqht even find neiahbors that would assist in this plantinq opera.tion .
