Dear Editor: In his June 13 guest column, Ron Kalil makes compelling arguments against the plans of developer Darren Kittleson to build new houses in the UW Arboretum. Developers, however, routinely hire attorneys specially trained to circumvent restrictions placed on land use by state statutes and county ordinances.
If there is a way to replace God’s good earth with steel, concrete and asphalt, developers will find it. Their only goal is to turn a profit.
