“We believe the City of McMinnville should follow the lead of state, federal and tribal agencies who have all identified this habitat as essential to our native wildlife population.”

YES. Do this. These groups have good reasons for their suggestions.

I speak for the "over 200 wildlife species that depend on the groves." Stop this proposed development.

Maybe the city could respond with a better response that "Our hands are tied"

Thank you YCSWD for your stance on this project. Losing 900 trees and the disruption of wildlife habitat is ridiculous.

There are so many aspects of this development that undermine our work to be good stewards of McMinnville's rich environment. The loss of these trees, and the habitat it is for many species, is not replaceable. I don't want to believe our hands are tied. Does SWCD have standing to file a lawsuit with Mac citizens?
