254 janeAnne NarrinAs 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!
255 Kate LozierCommon sense, long-term thinking need to trump greed.

262 Jerry Kotulla MDWhenever I mention that I live in Asheville to people I meet from other parts of the country the comments are always the same, " You are so lucky to live in such a beautiful place". Our environment in Western North Carolina is so beautiful and unique. I live five minutes from downtown, yet I can look on the Blue Ridge and feel the rural beauty of this location. The new development I see now reminds me of the uncontrolled development of the coastal range in California or the ridge building in Tucson, Arizonza. It destroys the natural beauty that many of us moved here to enjoy. We cannot stop people from moving here because they want to enjoy that same setting many of us move here to experience. But there must be a better way to accomodate development with low structures that blend into the environment instead of stripping off vegetation on mountain tops that took years to develop and building Mega-homes.

264 Nathan WestI live in Asheville and am sick and tired of people from out of town and mostly out of state destroying the mountains so they can have a vacation home. I support the moratorium fully.

280 Lisa HawkinsI am a native and these mountains are like my family I LOVE them!!! I've lived elsewhere and I always want to come back to these mountains. They are OLD and Majestic and I cannot see why anyone would want to chop them up or cut the tops of them off. You can go back. Are we sure we want to do what everyone else is doing? Then what will make Asheville / WNC unique? Then what well be like everyone else overcrowded! Lets Keep our Old fabulous Mountains so that EVERYONE can enjoy them not just the wealthy that want to own them! and take them away!

299 Christopher ScanzoniWe elected Democrats to City Council for a reason. Don't be just another bunch of spineless politicians.
300 Anna LevitskyWe cannot allow the day to come that when we gaze upon our once majestic mountains they are no longer awe-inspiring, but instead riddled with the the tell-tale scars of civilization.
