S 5-12-2014 To: Mr. G. Bisceglia, Chairman McDowell Mountain Preservation Commission Re: Name style recommendation for new connector trail. Dear Mr. Bisceglia and Commissioners, As most of you know the new connector trail linking Scottsdale's Sunrise Trail to our Western Loop Trail nears completion. Both our local conservancy and that of Scottsdale's have sponsored individuals whose names we wish to be used in the trail name. Those persons are, Chet Andrews and Roy Kinsey. The name style presented is "The Andrews-Kinsey Trail". Scottsdale has accepted this name style and now we the Sonoran Conservancy of Fountain Hills are recommending that you, the McDowell Mountain Preservation Commission do the same. Hopefully you all will find this name acceptable and representative of Fountain Hill's acknowledgement of one of our preservation leaders. Respectfully submitted, Pam Cissik, Co-chairperson Steve Fleming, Co-chairperson Sonoran Conservancy of Fountain Hills THE TOWN OF FOUNTAIN HILLS 1110.
