Thousands of people, "Millions of dollars". Yep. It's all been said by our good friends over at ARTA, who have all been very quiet--except for the rantings and ravings on Facebook from their resident Lake Placid snowmobile advocate/stakeholder/anti-fact checker. He knows who he is.
The fact that the state has delayed this hearing five times should be reason enough to suspect something stinks on ice, and lots of people know of it all now. Even the Adirondack Daily Enterprise, on December 31st in an editorial, went on record as saying "Meanwhile, a group of so-called “stakeholders,” hand-picked by state agency officials, is still blocking the public out of their meetings to plan the trail details. What are they afraid of? Maybe we’ll find out this year."
And just within the last few days, Beaver River "businessman" Scott Thompson had the following letter printed in the Enterprise. My reply to him is in the comments section, so read it and note the idiocy in his words.
Yes, it has been quiet, which is why when one of the ARTA people open their mouths in print or on soical media, it sounds that much more moronic.
