Administrative Issues
Admin, management of the Abenaki site can be very complicated
Need safe ada railroad crossing, also need one at redstone by hemlock parking
x
there are uncertain, overlapping issues of who owns what bit of the land and who in charge or in charge of what part
who is responsible for making decisions, funding, directing maintenance and repairs?
Town Manager
Selectmen
Conservation Commission
Historic District Commission
Abenaki representatives and family members
the role of the library and CHS
Land Ownership

Trail Signage
Part of this is also boundary line markers to keep visitors from going into private property
insert pic ranger with qr code (or link to trail sign options) here.
blazing trails, directional markers and interpretive signs at the Abenaki site
sign for each cabin?
sign for well?
trail signage as issue with conservation commission.
need to find the right balance between too much information and not enough
qr codes and cell phone tours can play a useful role in this
however, many people don't know how to use that technology
see below for notes on where signs could go, such as the site of the wizard birch, maybe ar (augmented reality) to locate and "see" where the Intervale hotels were.
would be curious to see how many of the selectmen and conservation commission know how to use qr codes, cell phone tours via blog, alltrails, etc.

Maintenance
kiosk installed x year needs a little tlc.
add qr codes to link to the large amount info we have, catalog of items at hhr and chs and links to other resources and references.
such as the Abenaki Trail, etc.
The Town should have digital copy files on all the trail signs, do they?
Amenities, picnic table, bear secure trash and recycling, etc.
Need plaque for listing on national register
