    • Remove Welland Legacy Park as community garden and rename;
    • The yellow View Royal Park loop should go down Viewcrest Drive to Vickery Road and not down Helmcken Road;
    • Knollwood Road to Jedburgh Road is not pleasant walking;
    • Green space of Heddle Road should be labelled as natural area, not View Royal Park Land;
    • Remove binoculars below Six Mile Road and move to end of Mills Cove Road;
