Why remove pond?

Dear Editor:

The Greenspace pond in Elora will be gone soon. Why?  

This was a pleasant place to sit and hear the bubbling of the water.  When there is so much traffic, rumbling from trucks, squeal of brakes and more noise, it was very nice to sit and quietly think.  

Now soon that will all be gone. 

Once again, why?  

Lucy Dyment,
