Subject: Lake Reidsville - Riparian Buffer Authorization
Hi April,
I have good news on the Lake Reidsville .25 trail project - it appears that the trail will not land within
either Zone 1 or Zone 2 after all, though it does come close to Zone 2 in one spot.
Tony McGee, landscape architect and trail design/builder, provided a GPS marking of the trail and
Piedmont Triad Regional Council provided GPS data on Zone 1 and Zone 2 of the Jordan Lake Rules
at Lake Reidsville. We overlayed the trail onto that map and discovered that the trail is not in either
zone.
I apologize for all the work this caused you; but for what it's worth, it definitely was a learning
experience for me that I will carry forward. The Dan River Basin Association has been granted
Recreational Trail Program funding to extend this trail; so we may need to return to you for a Buffer
Authorization Request in the future. But for now, it appears we are clear to proceed! If you see
anything that suggests otherwise, please let me know. We are required to complete this .25 trail by
the end of May; so we are eager to get started.
In the photo below, Zone 1 is in orange and Zone 2 is in yellow. The trail alignment is the darker
orange line. The line's thickness makes it appear to land in Zone 2, but when you scroll in (next
image) you see that it falls outside of that zone.
