Dear Sustainable Tompkins folks, I'm a fan of the Black Diamond Trail as well of most of the things that ST supports. So, I thought that possibly you as individuals or an organization might want to throw your support behind the BDT project with a formal statement to the NYS authorities who are doing the planning. -- at least, it's my assumption that a walking/biking trail connecting all our parks fits in with the notion of sustainable infrastructure.
A bunch of us have put the available info on a website -- http://blackdiamondtrail.org/ -- where you can get info about the trail, the state's "Master Plan" (scary, isn't it?) and examples of many letters already written regarding the plan. On the home page of that site are the addresses (postal and email) where comments must be sent. The public comment period ends in 8 days, so anyone wishing to support (or oppose) the trail has to weigh in on it asap. (feel free to ask if you need further info; I'll try to help.)
