Wetlands are incredibly…

Wetlands are incredibly fragile ecosystems and are already in short supply. To think that the development of roadways comes before a natural system for cleaning drinking water, fostering already at risk wildlife, and managing rainwater surges that would otherwise cause flooding is heartbreaking. It's disappointing to see that this legislative body continues to justify destroying key wetland areas in exchange for roadways and development. I hope that the thousands if not millions of dollars in damages caused by losing the services that wetlands provide is worth the quick cash cow that's offered by development.

I hope that the current government finds the sense to conduct a more thoughtful assement of the land they are about to build on before more damage is done.
