City is moving fast to sell this to a developer who will cut down all the trees and rip out the waterway to shorten it for maximizing buildable space. This waterway, irrigation canal, is shown as Proposed Open Space throughout the 2023 Midtown Master Plan. Why are we giving it to the developer to destroy rather than require thoughtful development around and minimally effecting the 1,800 feet mature trees? This part of town is just south of the mall, it is our only access to nature. We are requesting a town hall with the Mayor before its too late. Could be sold as early as May 18. There are many public meeting coming up to voice your concerns. Contact City Council, Parks Board, and Mayor
