I read with great interest the commentary by Tom Horton regarding Maryland's draft forest policy ("To save the bay, save the trees," Jan. 5). As an active master gardener and avid outdoor person, I am tuned in to the environment. It is well known our current Baltimore County administration has comfortable ties to the development corporations.
Since May 2011, I have been dealing with the effects of sprawling development on the environment in Randallstown and a lack of interest from county government. A call to the county executive in Towson yielded the response, that "it is all about jobs."
