Petition to unpatch hole in fence between bike path and Elmwood St. behind Dick's Auto Body

Petition to the city of Cambridge to remove the chain-link patch over the most-loved hole in any fence anywhere ever.

Pedestrian-friendliness takes precedence over aesthetics, in my opinion (and in those of both of my huge feet, so I get 3 votes).

Earlier post on this subject, two days ago, for those who don't know what this petition is about.

I don't use that hole, but I looked at the google maps pic of the area. It looks like the city owns that stretch of land (it being the end of a dead-end street) but it might also be owned by the auto-body shop. I understand with, and agree with, a petition if it's city-owned land, but if the land the fence is on is owned by the auto body shop, I'm not sure if the petition will accomplish much.

Happy to report that apparently the city of Cambridge is un-patching the hole (from comment in earlier post):
