The Editor,
Re. “We need more storage for our plentiful water” (TC Letters, The Tri-City News, April 22).
Thank you, Sean Barnett, for your intelligent letter regarding water reservoirs.
In a conversation with Coquitlam Mayor Richard Stewart a few months ago, he made it quite clear to me that he agrees with this common sense but Metro Vancouver has no plans to expand the storage capacity of water until after 2020.
Considering we do not elect the Metro Vancouver board and the cities that make up Metro continue to densify year after year, collecting more and more property taxes, it is time as citizens we start demanding from our politicians that infrastructure improvements must catch up before any more development is permitted.
Holley Nielsen, Coquitlam
