Oppose the Destruction of an Ann Arbor Urban Forest

Christine Brownell

We can't just keep tearing down tress and paving over everything. Humans need green. Trees, plants. Animals need these things too. We stop greed from bulldozing everything.

I am opposed to this development. It seems very much at odds with Ann Arbor's nickname of Tree Town to blow up 8 acres of woodland for multimillionaires to have narrow shotgun row type condos, especially when there are plenty of parking lots and dilapidated parcels that would be a more meaningful development. I suggest contacting Ward 2's incumbant councilwoman, Sandy Aldrich, at https://www.votesandyaldrich.com/ and make clear that, should she approve this project, she will lose votes.

Why do they have to clear cut to develop land ? It’s being done though out the county. Many people live here because the tree help filter . It’s clear & cooler because of the tree than the city. So I’m against any more cutting of trees. We love it the way it is

Matt Slauter

Ann Arbor needs trees to retain the name, "Tree City". The birds, squirrels, owls and insects need homes too.

Lindsey Muir

The proposed development is for very dense, tall luxury townhouses, which does not support affordable housing and destroys a beautiful wooded area. I hope the city will prioritize its residents and only approve developments that demonstrate a commitment to the same values as those residents.

Jill Crane

Our city needs to protect mature trees in our boundaries; trees keep our air clean.

Marcia Mai

This urban forest should be protected from development, especially as the proposed townhouses would be luxury housing, not affordable housing.

Paul O'Brien

Save the tress we have left.

Candis Hale

I love the natural land and I need trees to hang up my hammock in!

Carol Putney

This is important to me because I believe wildlife is valuable and we keep squeezing them off the land. I would like to see it stop in this small area.

Swati Mody

It is important to have a protected green space in the city. And Glazier road with its hills, curves, blindspots would not support high traffic which would come with development.

Diane Rosenblum

It is heartbreaking to thing of them cutting down all those trees and then putting in another housing development for the rich!

Johnny MacPhail

It’s better for everyone

Brenda Vyletel

The rezoning in Ann Arbor for establishment of higher density housing is out of control and outside the desires of, in my experience, most residents that are to be affected.

Paula BOCKENSTEDT

Poor urban planning with little thought to traffic patterns Plus, another subdivision of large unnecessary houses

Judith Smutek

Preserve natural areas and their inhabitants from luxury housing.

Suzan Williams

We need affordable housing, not high-end homes that require sacrifice of carbon-reducing forest areas.

Ali Hassani

This is an absolute disgrace. We cannot be Tree Town, then demolish mature woods just for luxury apartments.

Denise Taylor-Moon

Arbor is in the name of our city, our nickname is "Tree Town"

James Burns

I love this wooded area just as it is.
