[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We purchased a lot 10 or so years ago before the tree protection canopy act or whatever it is called. Right as they were announcing it, we cut down every tree in the area that would prevent building to avoid what was coming down the pike. The law is ridiculous - what do people want, more housing or trees? Just require planting 3 trees for every tree you cut down or something like that. [/quote] You can tell what people want just by looking at what they pay for. People pay more money for housing in communities with more green space and tree canopy. If everyone in your neighborhood did what you did, it would tank the property values in your neighborhood. You are what’s called a free rider and it’s not a good thing. [/quote]
