Don't remove trees that add beauty

To all, please reconsider the plan to remove over 300 trees from Ackerman Woods. They are a part of a beautiful section of the Chicagoland suburbs. I drive past the area every morning and every evening, and it's very calming to see.

I certainly don't want to see more strip malls and soccer fields than there are already.

I moved to the Chicagoland area a little over 10 years ago from rural Kentucky, but I have always bragged to visiting relatives about how well the forest preserves and the villages all coexist. Please don't make me out to be a liar.
