The Editor, The elected municipal leaders in most Metro Vancouver cities have allowed unbridled development without consideration to the impact of their decisions. Flooding and erosion exists in many new areas.

The Editor, Re. "Gravy train" (Letters, The Tri-City News, March 6).

If you live anywhere in the Tri-Cities, you should lock up your green waste bin and keep it clean.

The Editor, Re. "B.C. minimum wage to be tied to inflation" (www.tricitynews.com). Twenty cents ? Please tell me what you can buy for 20 cents. You can't buy a stamp - you would have to work five hours to collect enough extra money to buy a stamp.

The Editor, Re. "Housing in Legion proposal" (The Tri-City News, March 13). I agree with Port Moody Coun. Diana Dilworth that a cenotaph hidden behind a redeveloped Royal Canadian Legion would be inappropriate.

The Editor, Re. "Voters need info on contributions" (Letters, The Tri-City News, March 13) and "Developers dug deep for city elections" (front page, March 11).

Anyone feeling the heat from the Nov. 15 municipal election can relax. It wasn't because voters were fired up about the issues but from all the money burned by Tri-City politicians to get elected.

The Editor, There's going to be a federal election this fall and I hope people take into consideration our prime minister's skewed priorities.

The Editor, Re. "Developers dug deep in Coquitlam election" (The Tri-City News, March 11). As a relatively new resident of the Tri-Cities I continue to be impressed with the quality of journalism consistently displayed by your newspaper.

The Editor, Re. "Referendum Yes campaigners play health card" (www.tricitynews.com).
