Protesters try to stop Sacramento County from reopening popular Sailor Bar road to traffic ...Middle East

News by : (CBS sacramento) -

More than 100 people gathered to show they want the road to remain closed in the Sailor Bar area.

"This would be a devastating loss," Claudia Thorn said.

"For me, this place is like a sanctuary. It's almost spiritual. You come down here and it's a sense of serenity and nature," she said.

Now, with more staffing, the Recreation and Parks Commission plans to once again allow driving on it.

"Then how come fishermen aren't lining up in support of that," Thorn said. "This is not what the community wants, it's not about what Sacramento County wants."

"When they go to testify, it's been sit down and shut up," Thorn said.

"I don't really feel like there needs to be cars out here," said Ashlyn Ward, who attended the protest with her brother, Davin.

No major project changes or environmental testing has to be done.

Please note that this meeting has been moved to the Sacramento County Board Chambers at 700 H St., in Sacramento to accommodate members of the public who wish to attend.

Editor's Note: The story is updated from a previous version to correct and clarify information from Sacramento County about its plans for the Sailor Bar area. The previous version incorrectly characterized the road that the county plans to reopen as having always been a 'walking trail' and included an estimated cost for the project that was actually for a separate project in the Sailor Bar area.
