Resident urges council to help preserve 990 acres north of Cumberland and protect White River access
Summary
Linda Stevens urged the council to support efforts to conserve about 990 acres north of Cumberland, including Lizard Mountain and White River access, citing recreation and local well concerns; she said county and state entities may be interested in acquisition.
Linda Stevens addressed the council during public comment and urged support for land preservation in the Cumberland area, describing long‑standing family recreation on trails and river access. "This is a beautiful piece of property," she said, and argued the land would provide space for people of all ages to recreate and protect water resources for nearby wells.
Stevens said she had been told county and state agencies might be interested in conserving the property and asked the council to consider supporting efforts to preserve access and habitat. No formal action or funding request was made at the meeting.
