Mayo Peninsula Parks - Public Comments on Master Plan Concepts 11/1/2017 Mayo Peninsula Parks - Public Comments on Master Plan Concepts 11/1/2017 No. Date Park Comment 1 11/16/16 SRFP On behalf of the Annapolis Rowing Club, we have great interest in added public water access in Anne Arundel County. Gaining access to the water in this county comes at a very high price and it is prohibitive for many folks that would love to participate in rowing with us. Many of our members participate in the many other paddling sports in the local area and would greatly appreciate better access for watercraft like kayaks, SUP, canoes, Irish rowing boats and dragon boats. A community rowing/paddling site would be such an amazing addition to the county and would serve the needs of so many! We are happy to hear that you are making improvements throughout the county and hope that you will keep us in mind thank you for your consideration. Please visit our website for more information about our Club and contact info. http://www.annapolisrowingclub.com. See attached for more information about our specific needs. 2 11/16/16 BTBP Please continue to allow water sports / activities. 3 11/16/16 BTBP On behalf of the Baltimore Area Boardsailing Association (BABA), thank you for the opportunity to submit comments on the plans for Beverly-Triton Beach Park (BT). I and our members have previously submitted comments and I have reviewed the new plans for BT. Our concerns are: 1) The car top launch area is too small for staging and launching equipment associated with windsports. Windsurfers and kiteboarders not only need to prepare and rig their equipment, but need to have an area to drop equipment between sessions (we launch an come back frequently then relaunch). The blue dot depicted on the map is too small to accommodate any more than a few sailors at a time (not including anyone who is kayaking or using a SUP). We would like to see an expansion of the car top launch area to include beach frontage to the north of the currently proposed area (up to 400 additional feet) so that separation is adequate. 2) The equipment used in our sports is best rigged and staged on a grassed area to avoid damage and dry for loading. It is unclear from the current plans if a grassed area will be available. North of the currently proposed launch area there is a proposed picnic area. We would benefit from some accommodation for staging of windsports equipment on the grassed area either in front of or in the proposed picnic area and having that picnic area moved to the north west or removed. BABA would be pleased to work with the car top boat user groups on design details for the loading and unloading zone and car top boat launch area, with special attention to the needs of the windsports. Please contact me if this is a possibility. Thank you for your continued work on the peninsula parks. BABA will help where we can to make them safe, clean, and enjoyable places for everyone. 4 01/09/17 BTBP When was the site survey completed for this project? 5 02/14/17 BTBP I do not believe it is wise to add traffic to this area. I moved here and purchased a home in 2015. In 2016, I had 3 different occurrences of either not being able to leave the peninsula or get on to the peninsula to get home for 3 or more hours. Many people, including my household , have elderly living as extended family and adding more traffic without road is just plain irresponsible and dangerous. What if something happened at one a school or church? What if a natural disaster occurred?Fire response and medical response times are already challenging! Lastly, finish the Muddy Creek Road work soon...this is endangering people and lowering quality of life. 6 02/28/17 MBP Would actually like to see more parks for fishing activity. Mayo looked great. Also residents should have priority. I am sick of fishermen coming in from dc. They should be required to get a park pass sticker. To use the parks. 7 03/03/17 SRFP I should first disclaim that I cherish this park as-is and use it daily to walk my dog. The plan seems very reasonable. I'm glad there are no plans to develop the cultural resource area and also that the only boat launches will be cartop. Some questions/comments: The proposed picnic areas in the NE section are currently forested. How much deforestation is planned/needed? My opinion is that for any deforestation, there should be reforestation (perhaps in the area NW of the proposed playground.) What type of ground cover will be used for roads/parking lots? I hope the plan is gravel. 8 03/06/17 Glebe I live on property that boarders the Glebe Heights CS and would like to get the contact information for the team involved with the planning and building of this park so my voice can be heard. Can you provide this information? How can I learn about the time and location of the meetings for the parks.

PLEASE! Creates huge impervious surface on critical area. 'Beach'underwater at high tide. This is not a suitable party/event space or for 400 people in a day. Several small covered tables ok - no paving. 10 03/29/17 Other why are you even thinking about doing anything on the peninsula as pres trump has cut all funding for the bay ,if any thing all dollars and efforts on expansion (studies meetings legislation etc) should be plouded into bay projects such as the peninsula between the south river and Selby bay as this lack of action has created significant erousion in Selby .lets take care of projects that need taking care of today without spending $$on stuff for expansion purposes 11 03/31/17 BTBP Play equipment and Park area at the end of Beverly Ave. is slated to be leased to Mayo Community and lacks any parking for other Mayo residents. The play equipment is under utilized and I feel it is unfair that tax paying residents of the Mayo peninsula cannot utilize this equipment due to a lack of parking. The only access point is through trails in Beverly Triton and it is not feasible to walk strollers and kids long distances to access play equipment. There are two gated off road areas that could be opened or utilized for limited parking areas. Possibly offer a "lottery" for keys to the gate to limit the amount of traffic, or charge a yearly amount similar to Quiet Waters for the use of the park area and parking. I understand the residents are concerned with over crowding, however there are ways to control this and feel it is unfair to the remainder of the Mayo Peninsula to only allow access to this area to the local walkable residences. 12 04/03/17 BTBP Please keep boat access as is. I respect all park rules and are looking forward to the new improvements, however I am concerned that boat/surf/ kite launch privileges may be taken away from this location. 13 04/07/17 SRFP He is concerned about the traffic and non-expansion fo 214, the disturbance of wildlife, swimming in the polluted waters of the South River 14 04/07/17 Other I’m a concerned citizen and home owner from the Loch Haven community in AA county. Since I moved to Edgewater in September I have been thrilled to see so much wildlife. My husband and I have seen foxes, deer, hawks, Osprey, turkey, and many other varieties of birds. At first thought the idea of a developed park sounds good. Who doesn’t want more picnic areas, boat launches, and trails in the woods. However, after viewing the plans for South River Farm Park and going to the Mayo community meeting on April 4th, I do not support the development of any parks in the Mayo area or any other developments. I have never been much of an activist but I assure you I am talking a lot to friends, family, neighbors, and co-workers. I’m disappointed that so many county officials are in support. Water runoff, waste, schools, emergency, traffic, and wildlife must be significantly addressed and fixed before even thinking about anymore development in the Mayo area. Please stop developing in our town and consider all that will be lost if you proceed. 15 04/11/17 BTBP I'm submitting this public comment to express my disappointment in Mr. Schuh's decision to remove the swimming area for the Beverly Triton Beach Park, as a result of the FY 18 budget proposal. I can certainly appreciate the concerns of the community and the impact, but removing the swimming area from the plan when we already have such limited access to the water in the area is disgraceful. I fully expect that there will still be people swimming at Beverly Triton beach park this summer and for each summer to come, as there has been since it became open to the public, but you will have stifled adding the necessary infrastructure so that people could swim in safety and preserve the natural environment.

  • Parafoil Control for STRAPLEX
    FACULDADE DE ENGENHARIA DA UNIVERSIDADE DO PORTO Parafoil Control for STRAPLEX João Luís Granja da Costa FOR JURY EVALUATION Mestrado Integrado em Engenharia Eletrotécnica e de Computadores Supervisor: Sérgio Reis Cunha June 25, 2013 c João Luís Granja da Costa, 2013 Resumo Esta dissertação está inserida no projeto STRAPLEX (STRAtospheric PLatform EXperiment), que é um programa da Faculdade da Engenharia da Universidade do Porto em parceria com a Agencia Espacial Europeia (ESA). Este projeto é constituído por uma plataforma que permite à comunidade científica enviar experiências para a estratosfera recorrendo a balões de hélio. Devido às condições extremas presentes na estratosfera, o balão rebenta e a plataforma inicia a sua fase de descida estabilizada por um pára-quedas circular. Uma vez que este pára-quedas não permite qualquer tipo de controlo, nesta dissertação sugere-se que seja utilizado um parapente no lugar deste. O objetivo principal desta dissertação é implementar um fiável algoritmo de controlo para este sistema. Este trabalho dá continuidade a uma dissertação desenvolvida anteriormente, que propôs uma estrutura mecânica e de hardware que possibilita a implementação do algoritmo de controlo para a descida da plataforma. O movimento descendente da plataforma é descrito por um fiável modelo matemático, que inclui os vários movimentos relativos entre os diferentes objetos da plataforma. Este modelo tam- bém engloba os distintos tipos de controlo existentes no sistema, possibilitando a implementação de um algoritmo de controlo. Este algoritmo foi concebido para permitir a aterragem da plataforma no local desejado, sob certas condições atmosféricas. Como suporte ao sistema de controlo, é efetuada uma análise do modelo quanto à sua esta- bilidade, controlabilidade e observabilidade.

  • Kiteboarding and Windsurfing Breakwater Beach Information
    Harrison Windsports - Kiteboarding and Windsurfing Breakwater Beach Information SITE INFO: Location: We Kite and Windsurf off of Breakwater Beach located on the East side of Harrison Lake. To get here come to the town of Harrison Hot Springs, turn right at the stop sign on to Lillooette Avenue. Follow this through the town of Harrison Hot Springs and follow it left as it turns into Rockwell drive just past the Marinas. As you pass the last Marina you will see a large Breakwater on the left, with parking. Park here and set up based on the map above. Wind: The prevailing winds on Harrison Lake blow from the South on most sunny summer days, the blue arrow on the above map. The wind speed usually averages 15-25mph. The best winds occur during May through August when the weather is sunny and clear. The hotter it is in the BC interior, compared to the BC coast, the windier it tends to be. One of the easiest ways to check the wind is to look at the Harrison Windsport website which has a live wind meter, however the meter does read a significantly lower than the actual wind speed on the lake (ie. 7- 10mph on the meter often means a good 15-20mph on the lake). You can also watch the forecast for Vancouver and Merritt/Lytton, if it looks to be more than 5 degrees Celsius warmer in Merritt/Lytton than Vancouver there is a good chance of wind on Harrison Lake that day. It is often calm on the lake in the morning, with the wind beginning to blow in the early afternoon and lasting to early evening.
