The company is also discussing plans for tree preservation on the site, as well as considering non- explosive alternatives to the one area where some rock removal might be required. Glups said that an area near the highway would be set aside for winter parking. Several residents suggested that the money the developer is giving the municipality in teu of park dedication be put toward providing a trail down to the water and some sort of decking for people to use.
