SUBJECT: Contra Costa County Feeder Trail No. 1
The Board received a letter dated April 1, 1991 from
Roxann' Crosby, 2711 Geneva Street, Martinez 94553 , requesting the
Board' s assistance in keeping Contra Costa County Feeder Trail No.
1 and its branches as a riding and hiking trail only, and proposing
that the East Bay Regional Parks District be allowed to assume
maintenance for the trail.
Jack Ingram, 3302 Springhill Road, Lafayette, appeared
before the Board this date and commented on the history of the
Feeder Trail and its value to the County. He urged the Board to
preserve the Trail as part of the East Bay Regional Park District
trail network.

danger of allowing vehicle traffic on the trail which is used by
hikers, bikers and equestrians. She urged the Board to take
whatever action necessary to preserve the Trail.
Supervisor Tom Torlakson advised that he and Supervisor

that County Counsel determine the County' s legal rights to Feeder
Trail #1 and then work toward transferal of the County' s interest
in this trail to the East Bay Regional Park District.

SUBJECT: FEEDER TRAIL #1
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATIONS) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATIONS
The County should determine its legal rights to Feeder Trail 11 and
then work toward transferral of the County!s interest in this trail
to the EBRPD.
FISCAL IMPACT
Unknown, but transferral to the EBRPD will minimize the .long: term .
fiscal impacts on the County.
BACKGROUND/REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS
The County first designated Feeder Trail #1 in 1952 . Since that
time the County' has given the trail benign neglect. It has
recently become controversial due to attempts by property owners to
utilize the trail for vehicular access (M.S. #55-90) . The
Committee felt the County needed to perfect it's legal interest in
the trail and then consider the transfer of the County's interest
in the trail to the EBRPD. for permanent operation and maintenance
as a Regional Trail.
