Thanksgiving 2022 Driving On "Former" and "Current" TH26, anything seem "altered" to you?

Driving on a segment of what was once a functional thru-road road abutting the southern portion of my land on Thanksgiving 2022. Then past the Town Highway Maintenance Building, and then past some of the town officials' properties which were personally enriched by the conversion of my once functional town highway road frontage to a "trail" which may rescind (or grant...) access at the whim of the selectboard due to discretion they granted themselves in an otherwise entirely unenforced trail ordinance (the plain reading of which theoretically guaranteed my rightful access as a landowner for any "compelling personal or business" purpose). Also note, as an undisputed matter of Vermont law Legal Trails are NOT town highways and at the time TH26 was created there was a guaranteed private right of access which runs with the land if the town highway were discontinued.
