This entire process and rezoning have seemed like a done deal before we even had an opportunity to voice our objection.
We see no reason why council needs to deal with this action or others about rezoning at this time given the owners cannot start to build as the province has restricted such construction. We should have the opportunity in council to voice our opinions and ask the needed questions.
We were promised that all those that signed the petition would be notified by mail when this manner was to be finalized and heard at counsel. To the best of my knowledge this has not occurred, so most people in the area are not aware that this matter is even being discussed at this meeting. This is not right and certainly does not appear to be open and transparent.
All we ask for is a sense that our opinions matter as it relates to this rezoning application, and that opinion is we are strongly opposed.
