Gregory letter: Development

Regarding the story; “Developer plans 96 homes in Foothills.” Here’s yet another headline that spells doom for the natural heritage we all share and should be saving for generations to come.

More immediately, there are many many existing homes for sale right now in greater Boise. We can lessen the pressure to pave over and build on shrinking natural areas by getting homebuyers into these existing homes and doing so now.
