Taxpayer's common sense letter to paper. In the recent Oakville Beaver article titled, "Fight to save Glen Abbey gains ally," one sentence at the end needs to be repeated.
It reads: "ClubLink representatives said 54 per cent of the overall site would be preserved as publicly accessible green space."
This may not be a fact that is known by most Oakvillians. There are certainly problems with the development proposal, but perhaps it is time to start negotiating with the developer instead of using our tax dollars to fight it.
This will be a beautiful park area, connecting to Lions Valley Park, so that Oakville can have the kind of central green space we can all be proud of and enjoy.
