Yeah !! And thanks. VICTORY HILL SECTOR, a not-for-profit group, was devastated by the Vermont Natural Resource Board's preliminary Opinion to put our trails under Act 250 Jurisdiction, a bevy of draconian permits designed for commercial industrial, retail and housing development, not bike trails. If you want to help Victory Hill out then there IS actually something you and your friends can do: Because BERNIE SANDERS is primarily concerned with federal policy, it would be more effective to write to the following state officials, and tell them that you think that: 1) Vermont's Act 250 does not belong on bike trails; and, 2) Vermont's Natural Resource Board should stop using Act 250 as a bludgeon to punish private landowners for allowing bike trails to be built on their land and opening them up to public recreation (esp. those on Victory Hill) ; and, 3) placing Victory Hill under Act 250 jurisdiction is a shameful misapplication of the law, and directly undermines the State of Vermont's goal of supporting an outdoor recreation economy especially in Vermont's poorest rural areas like Essex Country - where Victory is located.

It will only take 5 minutes of your time.

@jtayabji: So glad Victory is being enjoyed. Our private trail system is NOT at all covered by a KT Trail Pass. We're a private company that has invested tons of effort and money into trailbuilding. The trails were free of charge in 2017. We are very grateful for all those who made gifts to our donation box in 2017 and participated in our fundraising events like the CircumBurke and Victory Hill Enduro. See you in 2018.
