103 Susan BroadheadPlease institute a moritorium so that we can look before we leap!
104 Marcla D. ClarkeI 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!
105 Terry CochranEverything 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.

112 Jim McCormickWoodfin Town Council is a prime offender.they need as much pressure put on them as Asheville City and Buncombe County.
113 Gary BriggsNow is the time to pause and set up a serious county-wide study group including long-time residents, experts, and developers with a track-record of environmental responsibility to recommend reasonable rules for controlled development.

119 John E. CramBeing somewhat aware of what governments are doing, I cannot help but wonder if we have waited too long to wake up. I talked about Asheville's inevitable growth 10 years ago when I 26 was being extended to Tenn. We were to be "x-ed". "X" marks the spot, like on a pirates map. Pirates don't fill environmental impact statements. This analogy created 10 years ago, was meant to be humorous years agoand yet provocative. But now its deadly serious times we live in.

132 gene harwoodI moved away from N.C. in the 70's, returning maybe 2 times per year. The mountains are really home to me, and so beautiful! I am now back to stay!!!! The devestation that has taken our mountains has got to stop.....Does anyone really think that the homes side by side up there are beautiful!!!!!!!!!!!!
133 Catherine NinesPlease preserve the beauty of these mountains. If you wish to purchase a home in the area, there are plenty of older homes for the taking.
134 Nick VollmerGlad to do all that I can!! Thanks!!

136 Bonnie L. BellowsThere is no work more important than this and action must be swift. We have already lost way too much of the beauties of WNC to corporate greed and powers that win through money.

138 bernard b carmani'm somewhat surprised that even the greedy developers want to allow our mountains to be destroyed. don't they realize property values will plummit if this continues to happen? one of the primary reasons why people come to live here is because of the mountains!
139 AnonymousMassive development by groups that have no connection or ties to our region are rapidly destroying the natural beauty of our area> I am not against development< but it must be done in a much more ecological and responsible manner than is currently being practiced>

147 AnonymousThey are making Asheville hot, noisy and unhealthy.Stop the Madness! Stop Asheville from running amok! With the human waste on our downtown streets and nowhere left to go because our trees and mountains are being decimated and animal habitats are being destroyed but yet citizens get angry because suddenly there's a bear a beaver a groundhog or possum in their area-well what the heck are they supposed to do? Rent a condo?This place sucks now. For animals AND people. Keep it cool and green, Asheville-they'd rather have the filthy lucre green I guess.

150 Britney LaughterI've grown up in these mountains and now am away attending UNC Chapel Hill. Every time I come home for a break I see more of these beloved mountains whittled away for development. They can't be regained and their loss is going to affect the local ecosystem.
