Anyway it's what I told you already: How can this zoning be approved before the tree survey is done? I live and own all the property south of this site and the layout only shows 5 trees to be saved, I know there are a lot more trees that should be on this list and the layout does not show any protection of the area, 75% I believe, of the crown of the trees or the trees under the crown. It showed an access road and buildings next to the trees. I have watched developers level property before the tree survey and when I reported this to the city arborist they could do nothing. I have spent almost 30 years restoring my property and want my work to be saved since the development is next to my trees also. The city has said that they want to maintain and increase the tree cover in the city to 50% and I have read it is now at 40%. Destroying old trees and surrounding trees hurt the environment of the city and none of us will live long enough for any new growth to return if large old trees are destroyed. Because the tree survey has not been done yet I am opposed to this zoning change. I want to oppose this and would like to be kept informed with this and be added to any lists or any documents about this case. If you can pass this along to them to make sure I am at least heard.
