To avoid congestion on Landslide Road, the Soo Finnish Nordic Ski Club wants to cut down an island of white pine and spruce trees to create more parking on their Pinder lots
A proposal to remove a plot of conservation authority-owned trees to create 48 additional parking spaces at the Soo Finnish Nordic Ski Club is being met with some hesitancy from several local residents.
The ski club says the current Pinder lots have experienced severe congestion with the growing popularity of these activities, which leaves club members and trail users no choice but to park along the sides of the main road. The ski club was prepared to begin cutting down the trees last fall, but Wheeler says a concerned citizen raised some red flags, which prompted the club to make further environmental queries.
After taking some measurements, they believe the ski club can add more than the intended 48 parking spots without having to take down the white pine and spruce trees at all.
