The Editor,

To Port Moody Mayor Mike Clay and city council:

Of course it’s too late to put a stop to the construction at Pacific Coast Terminals but, at the same time, what the heck were we thinking?

My chiropractic clinic looks out and this is what patients see. The first thing they say is “Who allowed that thing to be built in such a beautiful inlet?”

It becomes the dominant comment, as opposed to what used to be: “Wow, what a spectacular view!”

I am befuddled in how to respond. I am feeling angry that I must see this obstruction for as long as I live here.

I would anticipate that, as we value our beautiful environment here in Port Moody, projects of this nature will not be approved in the future.

In this light, our forward-thinking mayor and council will strive to hold on to our diminishing green space. Bert Flinn Park’s future now rests in our hands.

What will be our legacy?

Jay Lepp, Port Moody
