‘No longer trusted’

Dear Editor:

RE: Greedy group, July 29.

I would agree that council is allowing too much development to take place in Centre Wellington, mainly because the existing infrastructure is not capable of dealing with it.

The latest plans regarding “bypass roads” is nothing short of “insane” and shows that this council can no longer be trusted with our future. All they want to do is shift the traffic burden onto other neighbourhoods, instead of positively dealing with it. We need a bypass that goes well clear of all our residential areas and prevent the destruction of our trees, heritage sites, fish/wildlife areas and, of course, our sanity.

We really do not want to listen to any more noisy speeding cars going  by that our undermanned police force already seems unable to stop. We have seen “paid parking” introduced and next it will be yet more “flower pots before seniors trying to park and go for lunch”.
