Re. "PoMo voters - a few of them - OK borrowing $" (The Tri-City News, April 20).

I read with dismay the results of the Port Moody fire hall referendum. Regardless of where a citizen stands on the issue, 9.2% of registered voters bothered to vote. This is nothing short of appalling and shameful. Only 1,980 people cared enough to take 15 minutes of their time on a Saturday to decide on $16 million of borrowing.

To the, I say save your whining when you get your property tax bills - you got what you asked for.
