Another Reader Thinks City Is Wrong

Hi Don
I couldn’t agree with you more on the recent stories in the Gazette regarding city council.
The so called Mayor’s task force and the issue with the ravine on the trail. I continually shake my head. I mean what planet are these people from anyways?
As you mentioned St. Albert will never have a downtown that this so called task force is trying to envisions and implement.
Keep in mind that this is St. Albert, not a major city. I find the downtown quite fine just the way it is. What exactly are we trying to accomplish here. An Art’s district? What is that? Major cities have arts districts. New York, Chicago, Toronto, Vancouver. St. Albert? I don’t think so. Carol Watamaniuk? This is all she seems to care about. Who are these people that voted her in?
I guess these guys have never heard of planning ahead. As I have commented to you before, typical of Council and Administration to charge ahead with something with no forethought whatsoever and just see what happens. Then spend more money to fix the problems as they occur. Lets just knock down all the trees and then do an assessment of the situation.
Well that’s my rant for now, thanks for listening.
