How about if Lowndes County buys the land next to Old State Road
at Hotchkiss Crossing on the Alapaha River and turns it into
Acree Park?
That would be a much better solution to the trash, tresspassing,
and hunting problems there than closing the road.
And Lowndes County itsels claims it has plenty of money available
for just such a purpose.
As we've seen, Lowndes County's own Comprehensive Plan says the county has $500,000 in Acquisition Funds Available to "Adopt, implement, and update provisions of the Greenspace Initiative Plan to include land acquisition and resource enhancement/protection." And that it plans to "Continue preparation and implementation of the Withlacoochee River Greenway Plan."
What say the county acquires parkland at Hotchkiss Landing from
It could also combine with the Withlacoochee River Greenway Plan to form a River Corridor Protection Plan so Lowndes County can be a "Qualified Local Government". Which right now it may not be.
