This petition is to insure that the developer of "The Summit At Bethel" replants the tree line that was clear cut during construction. The carnage of this scalping of the ridge line can be seen for miles and is totally unacceptable. The view of this ridge line should be for all in our community to enjoy, not just the people who live a top it. Making this happen will be a group effort. I ask that people from Bethel and surrounding towns please sign this petition.We are going to ask that a mix of both mature evergreens and hardwoods be planted to soften the view of these townhomes year round. Our goal is to have 500 signatures to present Bethel officials and demand that our requests of proper screening is met prior to the developer packing up and leaving us with this eyesore.
Thank you for your support

Great view of the condos and stone wall from meckaur part. What a eye sore. plant the trees!
The town of bethel should have made them do this to begin with. Shame on our town for allowing this destruction to happen....retree the ridge!!!
The trees need to be replanted. Big development shouldn't be at the expense of our natural resources, and the beautiful view our town has enjoyed for decades.
You may have a fine view looking down at the rest of us but why should we have to look at a strip mine?
Bethel is becoming an eyesore! We are losing all of our open space to giant condos and town home communities. I know it's all about tax revenue for the town...of course....but could you do it tastefully? Be plant the trees and stop destroying our town.
Why not just pay for the trees yourself? Somebody call the wambulance!!!
I would suggest starting a go fund me to get the trees replaced within the next 5 years or you’ll hear nothing from the state - they have way bigger fish to be frying than this!

I grew up seeing the beautiful wooded ridge line, and hiking the woods around it. It is a shame what has been done and I'd like to see the integrity of the ridge face restored
