Comments If there truly is no buyer for the land, why create an eyesore for
the community and mess with the eco system? It seems clear
that this is being rushed through in December so that it can
avoid the potential protection of the 2025 Wetlands law, which
specifically protects small wetlands. There has been no study

yet by the land owner or any other entity to see whether this
wetland is protected under the new law. I respectfully ask that
the decision is adjourned for a few months to see whether the
wetland is protected, particularly in light of the fact that there is
no actual plan for land development at this point other than just
making it "shovel ready" with no actual buyer in sight. Has
anyone from the city checked to see if this wetland would be
protected in just a few weeks? Below is a summary outline of
the new wetland regulations for your review. Thanks for your
consideration.
