Wilson t i ANNUAL REPORT OF THE BICYCLE TRAILS COMMITTEE To the Honorable Board of Selectmen: It was anything but a successful year for the Bicycle Trails Committee. ' s There were countless hours spent in Hyannis in conference with the Cape Cod Planning and Economic Development Commission drawing schematic plans of a series of trails linking all towns on the Cape. A follow-up application for funds was sent to Boston, with subsequent denial. Without these funds there could be no more progress, and the bicycle trails remains just a plan. i Respectfully submitted, i Jerry L. DePalma Chairman ' Marjorie Romaine 94 i
