The Editor,

Re. “Schools for Tri-City waterfront dev’t.?” (The Tri-City News, Nov. 15).

I cannot imagine why Beedie Living is planning a development of 4,000 homes with no schools. Perhaps none of the new home buyers plan to have kids?

How do they expect children to cross United Boulevard, the overpass over the freeway and Lougheed Highway by bus to Maillardville?

We should not allow the same mistakes that are facing the parents living on Burke Mountain. Please attend Beedie’s waterfront village open house planned for Thursday, Nov. 23 between 5 and 7 p.m. at 10 King Edward St., Coquitlam.

B. Stone, Coquitlam
