Subject: Concerns over the development of #9 Erskine Lane
Hello,
My name is Gray Daniels, I am a concerned resident of 14 Erskine Lane and I urge the Council to listen to the neighbourhood concerns over the development of #9 Erskine Lane.
I’m an employee of the provincial government, and my job involves ensuring land use planning also contributes to biodiversity and wildlife. I’m acutely aware of the tendency to develop with paying only lip service to such concerns. I urge Council and the developers to work together to do things differently and to develop a proposal that integrates the concerns from residents regarding the natural environment, safety, privacy and amenities.
Development doesn’t have to negate beauty, if we do it mindfully.
Kind regards,
Gray Daniels
