Urban forests are critical to climate control (helping to keep temps from rising).

We don't need more million dollar housing. We need all the trees we have.

The plans for traffic enter/exit seem ridiculous re: unsafe on steep hill. This is a watershed area on a steep hill. Adding building and concrete and removing mature trees is extremely counterproductive. Please do not allow rezoning this property.

Trees are so important with climate change, plus they’re beautiful. 3 or 4 homes built around the trees would work, but 76 units is too much for a small space and will cause traffic problems, as well as unsightly views.

Mature trees are invaluable for cooling the planet, maintaining animal habitats and keeping humans sane. Be smarter.

In addition to the completely indefensible destruction of a beautiful wooded area, the construction of such a development along the steeply sloped Glazier Way will add traffic that will significantly increase risk of accidents particularly in winter.

This little patch of woods belongs to the children of my neighborhood. Always has and it always should ♥️

this 8 acre wildlife refuge is home to many dear, foxes, coyotes, birds, in addition to the old trees. The idea of putting 76 three story condos in the middle of a huge slope threatens the people at the bottom of the hill with goodness knows what. Pesticides? Fertilizer? Weed killers? It is not the ideal place for building and I'm hoping beyond hope that our city Council will deny the rezoning.

There is just no valid to destroy this small urban forest. Trees are important.

We do not support this planned development and further destruction of Ann Arbor's mature forest in this area. This heavily wooded area is exactly the reason we purchased our home in this neighborhood. We value the local habitat and diverse ecosystem that provides sanctuary for a multitude of wild species.

We have lost enough urban forest in “tree city”. This area should be preserved.

The big old Trees are important and need to be protected. When will Ann Arbor create a tree ordinance for the entire county ??? This is Tree Town. We are called Ann ARBOR !

Trees are important both for their beauty and our health and for the sake of the climate.

We don’t need more high end housing options. We need to keep green spaces to keep the environment healthy and people happier.
