Dear Editor,

I have been a resident in this beautiful city for 25 years.

I believe it’s slowly losing its charm due to what appears to be the unrestricted development of high-rise buildings, among other issues as well.

Part of this problem stems from the fact that Richmond residents do not participate in the process.

The city then just makes decisions on the zoning development without the active participation of its constituents. 

There should be more encouragement for residents to participate in the decision-making process.
