I do no support the Line Creek Parkway Phase 2 extension. It appears that this project would provide unneeded, duplicate road capacity for a high cost. It would also go a great ways to ruin the "in nature" feeling that one experiences on the widely popular Line Creek trail. I think this project would be seen as a slap in the face to the surrounding neighborhoods that already tried to take steps to save the green space (and were ignored by Park Hill School District)
