Save natural areas for future generations

Dear Editor:
Living in Independence Township, I see an avalanche of development coming ? both commercial and residential. I hope our community will realize now is the time to save some of the best remaining natural areas for our future generations. Several communities (Ann Arbor, Washtenaw County) have passed millages to help save some of their open space, Can we do less? Look around and think how nice it would be to keep some of want we have and moved out here to enjoy.
