I understand your point, but I'm all for paved pedestrian trails. I don't particularly feel that 3m wide paved recreational trails is a significant impact, compared to the adjacent acres of parking lots.
As a pedestrian, I personally prefer well-maintained but unpaved trails. Even a gravel trail is more pleasant for walking than pavement. (That said, it does limit, though not prevent, accessibility for wheelchairs and strollers.)
