  • Plans are not consistent with the Town’s declaration of a climate emergency.

  • There are 18 types of ecologically significant habitats at risk.

  • Public Vision Plan calls for 70% to be left wild. Development plan seeks 50%.

  • Several rare mammal, amphibian, reptile, bird, and plant species at risk.

  • Proposed attractions would overwhelm 212 and Route 32.
