[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yeah, the article is a hit job meant to make the neighborhood look bad. It should be fair to ask effected officials questions like: How exactly will the community center and library be build out? What amenities will be provided? Will there be any green space left reserved? Will there be a playground? Will there still be a basketball/pickleball corurt? Why can’t the city pay to develop these city owned resources which are available to and used by city-wide residents now? Is this the best location to add housing when there are numerous other housing projects in flight nearby and many currently available units in the neighborhood? But of course, when you ask questions like that you get slammed as racist and anti-affordable housing. [/quote] You do get to ask those questions. There’s a whole democratic system of government whereby you get to influence the answers. [/quote] This is exactly what ChCh residents are up in arms. The existence of some kind of process in no way ensures that we will like the outcomes. We feel like the city will end up doing whatever they want no matter the opposition. And on top of everything we’ll be vilified for being “racist”.[/quote]
