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 allow numerous new condo 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 for rezoning, you have all the power. Make the rezoning conditional on a community centre and a school being pre-built with every new larger scale redevelopment.
