No Leash-Only Trails in Boise Foothills

The Working Group of the Foothills Conservation Advisory Committee plans to propose to the entire Foothills Conservation Advisory Committee to make all lower and mid level trails in the Boise Foothills to be on-leash areas for dogs.  This would include all the trails in Hulls Gulch, Military Reserve, Bogus Basin, etc and leave on the upper level trails, or every trail accessible within 5 miles of downtown Boise, on-leash only.   The FCAC will meet on May 7, 2008 at 7:30am at the Foothills Learning Center to discuss this issue.

We, the undersigned, believe that the Working Group's recommendation is extreme and unwarranted, and respectfully request that futher discussion and public comment is needed before the Foothills Conservation Advisory Committee approves this recommendation, or presents it to the Mayor and City Council of Boise, Idaho.
