Description

Trash disappears and beauty thrives when East Rock Park is pedestrian only.
To save, preserve and honor the sacrifice it represents, the beauty it holds, and the mighty lessons it offers, we propose making the historic and magnificent East Rock Park off limits to non-City of New Haven / City of Hamden vehicles.
For older, infirm, weak, and disabled visitors we request regular shuttle buses ferrying between the lower parking lot and the summit.
When cars are allowed, the park, the land, these two cities, and the honor and sacrifice the Soldiers and Sailors monument represents are befouled with trash and filth left by the thoughtless lazy.
Please vote Fix to support this idea then call your alders, mayors and legislators to voice your support of untarnished history and beauty, as well as your rejection of the trash pile some would have East Rock and much of our two cities become.
