| 10 | janeAnne Narrin | As a REALTOR, I am very much aware of the negative impact thoughtless development has on the value of property...and the potential hazards in terms of land issues ...including landslides! |
| 11 | Kate Lozier | Common sense, long-term thinking need to trump greed. |
| 12 | Susan Broadhead | Please institute a moritorium so that we can look before we leap! |
| 13 | Marcla D. Clarke | I have watched florida become destruyed from overdevelopment and clear cut. PLEASE, PLEASE don't let the mountains suffer the same future. In florida, we can expect to be out of clean drinking water in the next few years. Fight the developers. fight for the mountains! |
| 14 | Terry Cochran | Everything is going to pot! Even growing our own food in the mountains is difficult as the rain turns to acid and destroys the forest (pollution) and the soil continues to build in toxins from pesticides used by subdivisions going in. Look at Clingman's Dome for a stark reminder of the damage from acid rain. |

| 16 | Lisa Krolak | I live in Polk county. Several hundred active citizens have formed a coalition for saving our slopes and countryside. 1000's of people have diplayed a shared concern via petitions signed. These same people are likely to join the coalition or at least support it. Please listen to the masses who would like to be proactive and save our prestine moutnains for future generations. Thank you. Lisa Krolak |

| 23 | Maureen Linneman | I did not see in the petition that a moritorium is being asked for. Is there any additional info about a moritorium?

| 24 | Gayle Jann | We need to control development. There are many problems building on steep slopes including erosion, loss of visual beauty, loss of wildlife habitat, and storm runoff. |

| 27 | Scott Mckenzie | Fairview, Beaverdam, Candler, REYNOLDS MOUNTAIN, enough is enought. Stop destroying the mountains for short term gain for the few and long term devastation for the rest of us. |

| 30 | Roger Wood | Once the slopes are gone they can never be replaced. Good planning takes a time to develope and a good plan now will produce good results for a long time. |
| 31 | Donald Witsell | Asheville is turning into another placeless American city. We can stop this from happening if we truly want to preserve what makes this place special. |

| 33 | Karen Boekschoten | I am an Asheville native, who moved back to the area from southern California because my children had never seen a forest. A good premise for the very real concern about over development in our mountains is a book called "The Ecology of Fear" with photos of Southern California - once a wooded tourist destination. It not only CAN happen here, it is happening here. |
| 34 | carlisle baskin | There's no need for more development in western N.C. |
| 35 | suzannah tebbe davis | As a concerned global citizen, I am dismayed at the destruction of nature and our ridgetops going on in Western North Carolina. I am a health care practitioner and see the health of Asheville residents declining, autism, allergies and ashma skyrocketing, and species disappearing. Please do all that you can to ban ridegetop development and save our slopes! |

| 48 | Emmie C. Giguere | If you don't do something now about the rapid development you will end up like my hometown of Charleston,SC where the marsh is disappearing and there is clear cutting everywhere of huge old live oaks, it is being done by out of state developers, they take the money and run. I would hate to see my new home of 4 yrs. go the same way my hometown has gone, it's beauty destroyed by the developers and outsiders. Please stop the madness, the mountains are a gift not a money pit. If you let development run rampant you will have no views to see, no mountains to show your grandchildren and the developers will be long gone. |
