Editor: Think outside the box.
If Brookswood, 91Ô´´ City (as it now exists), Willoughby and Walnut Grove were amalgamated into a ‘New 91Ô´´ City’ and 91Ô´´ Township incorporated the protected farm land, the Aldergrove region and Gloucester, including all the ‘random’ small acreage areas spread ‘helter skelter’ around the Township, I think the population would be served better.
The primary mandate of the Township would be to preserve and enhance agriculture.
Aldergrove, as the main ‘town centre,’ might flourish and become something special.
The New 91Ô´´ City would receive better planning, lean more to high density, and cater to the needs and desires of a sophisticated urban area.
I have lived in 91Ô´´ Township for 42 years, and I think an re-alignment is warranted for the betterment of both 91Ô´´s.
What do you think?
