I wanted to send this letter to show you that I think you are doing a great thing in fighting the Cypress Hills Subdivision, and I hope you will win. My name is D.C. I am 14 years old and my family and I live right next door to the cypress hills subdivision. We were the owners of the 275 acre piece of property that we reluctantly sold a few years ago. It was passed on back and forth until it was eventually sold to the developer of Cypress Hills. I have grown up on this property and remember all of the swimming holes and grottos we have always visited. The major grotto has now turned into their sewer. We would also hunt this property all the time and see all kinds of animals roaming around. Now we never see any more of this wildlife anywhere. I don't know if this is still a concern, but I know I remember some type of restriction, as far as building goes, because of the endangered Golden Cheeked Warbler. I wish we never would have sold this property, and I know we wouldn't have if we knew what was going to happen. I respect your organization for this cause and I hope that you will win against the developers. Thank you

-D.C.
