Are Changes At Cobbs Hill Reservior To Stop Flow Of Public?

I haven't been up here in awhile, or as much as I used to, since all of the hassles with security in the name of 9/11. But with the naming of Robert Weisner as the "Director of Security Monroe County Water Authority" with a mandate to implement reccomendations of the National Drinking Water Advisory Council. With an emphasis on assessing vulnerabilities and bolstering security surrounding the supply of water. Little by litlle they tighten the noose on Cobbs Hill in the name of security, while the Highland Park Reservoir remains open to all comers. The time will come when the public will be banned forever form Cobbs Hill, while thousand will be invited each year to the Highland Reservoir for the Lilac Festival. Meanwhile the local press worries about the fact that he is married to County Executive Maggie Brooks. Never mind that we will lose these beautiful views, this recreation area in the city.
