So a 72 year old man admitted to driving a bulldozer approximately one mile through Durand Eastman Park and he claims he was “improving” it. The photo above shows an example of what he considers “improvement”. A few weeks ago this was a beautiful, gentle path through the woods. Director of Monroe County Parks said “I’ve never seen anything as wildly offensive as this.” He had the man arrested and he faces a $250 fine. If found guilty the County plans to ask for restitution. Apparently quite a few people complained to the Parks Department. Channel 8 and Channel 13 did a story on the evening news last night and the Democrat & Chronicle did a piece in this morning’s paper. And the Ironequoit Post splashed the story across the front page. Of course, most of the comments are in “Dozerman’s” favor with some offering to pay his fine. “
