Wow. Thanks for sharing this info about the predator/mile issue. I don't think I have ever heard it and I find it very interesting.

Big developments are subject to more scrutiny than just basic compliance with the zoning code, and 5 or 6 planets for a city with numerous projects of this scale (and many smaller ones) is too few.

We could marginally slow traffic on a single stretch of road with chicanes or we could marginally slow traffic on many stretches of road with speed bumps. I know which I'd pick! This overheated stuff about their alleged harms does you no favors.
E: I'm no fan of Gainey but this program started under Peduto. Just a very weird thing to get on Gainey's case about.

Peters township. Great schools. Not as rural as it was but not as over crowded as everywhere else. Plus Washington county taxes. I would not recommend ringold for the sake of your kids. Trinity high school is a better option if you want rural and cheaper home prices

Wild black raspberries do very well here without any care. In fact, I spent years trying to eradicate them from my old property, lol.

And where did the people from all the projects go? What about the people living down the street in those cheap apartments on Negley? How many years of negotiations and regulations did it take to get those places replaced, or did the developers do that out of the goodness of their hearts?
Are you honestly trying to tell me that if we just let developers do whatever the hell they wanted, those houses would exist?

Last I checked!
I actually never loved eating inside because it's dingy and cramped, especially post-covid, but I sometimes stop in just to get the Jackie O dessert to go.
"I used to make for Jackie Onassis, on the yacht." (Which is apparently true as far as I know.) It's this whipped custard cake thing and it's very good, Jackie or no lol

I would suggest looking into taking a Permaculture Design Certification course offered by the Garfield Urban Farm, or at least check out what they've done there. It's very inspiring, and they have the knowledge and resources to help one take small steps towards sustainability in your own space.

Christos is somehow both very nice and also very sketchy. He walks a thin line, that man.

Fruit trees are still good, leafy greens are what bioaccumulate heavy metals, very rarely do plants put heavy metals in the fruit. Apples, pears, paw paw, would all do well, as well as berries, cherries grapes etc.

Don't sunflowers help extract heavy metals from the soil?
