My home of Greenfield Township is facing an imminent threat from the planned construction of 36-38, three-story apartments in the heart of our beloved wetlands on Columbus Rd NW. This is not just about preserving the scenic beauty of our home, it's also about preserving the delicate ecosystem that houses countless species of wildlife. These animals, many of which thrive specifically in this precarious wetland habitat, would be significantly displaced or adversely affected by these construction activities and the subsequent encroachment of human settlement.

Our roads are also too narrow to accommodate the increase in traffic that would inevitably follow the completion of this project. We would be exposing ourselves to increased risks of traffic accidents and congestion. Moreover, our local schools, police, and fire services could be overwhelmed by the influx of new residents. This scenario could result in a potential tax increase for all property owners within Greenfield Township just to manage the pressure on our infrastructures.

These issues are not hypothetical; they reflect the reality faced by other towns across the United States that have welcomed similar large-scale housing projects without due consideration for the direct and indirect impacts. (Source: US EPA and National Public Radio studies)
