OK - so I went off last week on the clearing of a big patch of ground along the Greenway very near my house. Given other publicity that was happening, I assumed (ass of U and Me) that the clearing was connected to an effort to render the Greenway uncampable for the local homeless.
Well, now that isn't so clear. There are two signs posted at the clearing, they read "Site Improvement by" and then a company name and contact info. And that particular clearing is the ONLY portion that has been cleared. A massive section of blackberry just upstream is untouched.
So...
I am not sure WHAT is happening there.
I talked to Oregon Fish & Wildlife - they aren't too broken up about losing invasive, non-native blackberry, though they concede timing may not have been ideal for nesting season. Apparently the entity with immediate jurisdiction and relevent ordinances is Jackson County.
I will resume my information gathering, once I have done the job interview thing and the go to the coast and pick up Dad thing this week.
