My husband and I have built a life here through years of hard work and the desire to live in such a beautiful part of our state and country. We are looking to grow a family and at the rate of which our valley continues to get developed and land flipped for profit, I am deeply saddened we will loose the meaning of why we live here. We should be so lucky to have this opportunity to live high in the mountains, with clean air, healthy water sheds and animals migrating through our backyards. The Harvest Roaring Fork development is incredibly dangerous to the livelihood of not only our people who cherish the land here but the wildlife, flora and fauna. A development size and density of the proposed plan is detrimental to our existing communities, resources and infrastructure. Our watershed, especially after considering this dry winter, cannot withstand a new sea of homes. Our current world seems to be moving at a pace without thinking about the consequences of action and I am making it my civil duty to remind our officials that we care and I will stand up for what I know is the right thing for the people in the RFV. Please for the sake of the future health of our families and wildlife, I respectfully urge you to reject this development as proposed and to protect the Cattle Creek Confluence for current and future generations. Thank you for your time. Mercedes Brown
