Timber Sales’ plan for a road and logging on Cherry Ridge. “It’s a safety issue for residents,” said Eugene Foisy, Cherryville director. …On Thursday, Foisy and the Cherry Ridge Management Committee, which operates a community forest, held a community meeting about BCTS issuing a road contract. About 60 people attended the session. “They have all promised to phone BCTS and demand a downstream assessment study,” said Foisy.
