Wildlife

Organize for preservation of town wild places

I am involved with monitoring is subdivision proposed for the woods across the street. I asked to serve on the comprehensive plan implementation committee. Nearly all the neighbors on my road sign my petition that the proposed subdivision respect the character of our neighborhood by preserving wildlife habitat. As much as possible. And this problem is all over our town and the suburbs bordering Capital district cities. We can press pause. Reevaluate.
