Having lived in the community for over 30 years I would like to thank the people who had the foresight to plan and execute the new Baldwin corridor.

I have watched the forest covered hillside leveled to build a mall. The cow pastures that were here have turned into housing developments. Both morning and evening the road was at a crawl.

Now, what a pleasure to drive up and down with the trees and plants and no traffic lights. Well done.

Now, please keep it up and replace the dead and damaged trees.

Also, fix the traffic light at Clarkston.
