City wants huge River Ridge cottonwoods preserved
Monday, May 30, 2005!
The Winnipeg Free Press has an article about the proposed River Ridge Develop part of which includes the new West Kildonan Collegiate which will sit on 10 acres of the development.
I notice that The City of Winnipeg (David Marsh) is being portrayed as the “preventer” of the destruction of some 3.4 hectares of an ecosystem known as river bottom forest by the Development of River Ridge. Don’t you think they are acting in the best interest of the taxpayers???
The article states that 132 houses are planned when in fact it is over 200 houses from the last plans that I saw. Somebody ask Palubeski for the latest drawings?
While you are at it, ask him how much of the land that he owns and how much capital gain he is going to make personally, from the development!
Somebody could also speak with O’Leary of the Seven Oaks School Division and ask him if he is holding title (or option) to any of the land involved in the development.
And while you are speaking to him, ask him how much land the Seven Oaks School Division has acquired to build the school. Is part of their holding included in the housing development??? How much do they stand to gain/loose???
These are just a few of the questions I would like to have answered.
