The Tubbs Hill Foundation sent a letter re: plans to upgrade McEuen Field to Mayor Sandi Bloem, the City Council, and City Administrator Wendy Gabriel, which reads in part: "We would be opposed to construction of trailheads featuring artificial fountains or streams, other manmade features such as a sledding course on the periphery of the hill, or any structural elements such as a proposed observation platform on the hill. The proposed features are inconsistent with the City's Tubbs Hill Management Plan, which state that "Tubbs Hill, a city park, sholl be managed to provide for people's use and enjoyment while maintaining the natural setting that provides this outdoor experience." The foundation also opposed any paving of the Tubbs Hill trails. The letter was signed by foundation president Peter C. Luttropp. You can read the letter in its entirety here.
