Letter: Suffering the stink in Richmond

Open letter to Richmond city council, We are suffering here in Steveston with the foul stink of the compost facility. Please fix it as soon as is possible — it is dreadful, it wakes us up at night and it’s almost constant now. It never lets up.

Open letter to Richmond city council,

We are suffering here in Steveston with the foul stink of the compost facility.

Please fix it as soon as is possible — it is dreadful, it wakes us up at night and it’s almost constant now.

It never lets up. I don’t want to open the windows to let the smell in.

I shouldn’t have to suffer this stink.

Mayor Brodie, please fix it — sooner, rather than later!

Patti Gallacher
