TOWNHALL MEETING
October 29, 2018
Joan Mantel, 4690 Hartley Rd., Eagle , ID
I have owned this property since 1991. It borders the BLM on the North. Very few people used to
shoot ground squirrels and doves and I could ride my horse without fear of being shot or have my horse
shy at the sudden appearance of a bike, loud ATV or motorcycle.
Those days will never return without CONFLICT RESOLUTION PLANNING and respectful citizens.
I began picking up trash because I like to leave this area better than I found it and it gives me more
peace of mind when I'm in natural surroundings.
The road would need maintenance before shooters could easily access a different part of BLM in Little
Gulch away from surrounding homes. Rain and snow inspire monster trucks with monsters tires that
churn deep gullies in the hills.
I know orange clay pigeon shards are biodegradable but there is a constant new supply marring the
natural beauty of the area. I thank the many shooters who pick up their brass, empty shells and targets,
and also clean up after other slothful shooters. It was very gross picking up piles of dead and rotting
birds and buckets full of broken liquor and beer bottles on many occasions. Some shooters have used
exploding targets.
Night brings out other users who leave campfire remains, assorted beverage containers and fast food
wrappers. They interrupt my sleep with loud yelling and loud heavy beating "music" and some drive
cars with loud mufflers. I even found a homemade marijuana pipe in the cheat grass not far from a
campfire. When I confronted one young man cutting circles on the hilltop with his loud pickup he said,
"Everyone is doing it!" and thank goodness everyone is not doing it. The idea of a curfew is good and I
hope it can be enforced.
Some people really do enjoy looking at the view quietly at different times of the day and night. Again I
thank the various shooters, dog walkers, hikers, joggers and equestrians who help to keep the area
clean. I am certain there are many good ideas here this evening for CONFLICT RESOLUTION.
