[quote=Anonymous]Developers know the rules when they buy a property and should abide by them. If they can't legally build the house they want on a given property, then they shouldn't buy the property. The 100-year-old oak tree didn't just spring up after the sale. Trees absorb pollutants and capture rainwater. Their canopy provides shade and helps reduce energy costs. They are home to wildlife. They can provide natural privacy screens, reduce traffic noise, and add beauty to our surroundings. Not everyone wants to live in a soulless neighborhood where each lot is stuffed with a McMansion. And not all of us value money above all. [/quote]
