Hello,
I wanted to send a quick message letting the council know that I am in full support of continued access to our city open
spaces in the evening hours during the winter. As a an avid cyclist and someone who works until 5:30 during the week,
the only way I am able to get a ride in during the week is in the evening. From my experience, the other cyclists I see out
on CSL in the evenings are respectful folks who are just trying to burn off a hard days work. I do not feel that anyone
who is willing to layer up and invest the time and energy for serious lighting is not out there to be harmful or
disrespectful to our delicate wildlife ecosystem.
If continuing the permit system is required, the current system has been very easy to use and efficient, in my opinion. If
it would be possible to expand the program to the Irish Hills open space that would also be greatly appreciated.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Respectfully,
Jon Watkins
