BUSINESS AND THE ARTS

I am wri�ng this email to suggest that the City of Richmond put a litter bin at the Alderbridge Way/May Drive bus stop

I always find there’s a lot of garbage (see photo) on the bench at the bus stop as there’s no li er bin nearby I hope that adding a small bin can solve such problems

Build it up, and they will come

Dear Editor, Re: “‘Urgent’ need for more school space,” News, May 25.

So, I think we have seen this before: a city government approves rezoning to allownumerousnewcondo towers, then, as expected, hundreds of families move in and there are no school spaces for them

Hmm, I wonder where all the kids that will move into the Richmond Centre towers will go to school?

Come on, city council; when a developer applies

2023 for rezoning, you have all the power. Make the rezoning condi�onal on a community centre and a school being pre-built with every new larger scale redevelopment
