Citizen Organized Public Meeting - March 22nd, SDSS Auditorium, 7p

Please allow me to introduce myself. My name is Dana Maslovat and I am Tsawwassen resident who is concerned about the proposed development of the “Southlands”. In short, my concern is that there does not appear to be an avenue for public opinion to be heard regarding this proposal.

Given the recent release of the Tsawwassen Area Plan “Ideas” document, myself and other concerned residents hope to organize a unified voice opposing any change in designation of the Southlands in the Tsawwassen Area Plan from agricultural to Study Area or some other designation that would clear the way for development. If the current designation of ‘Agriculture’ is changed in the Tsawwassen Area Plan, it will make it easier for the landowner to apply for rezoning to match the new designation in the Tsawwassen Area Plan.

To this end, we have booked the auditorium at South Delta Secondary School on Monday, March 22nd at 7:00pm for a short (1 hr) meeting. The purpose of the meeting is to outline and develop a strategy to make our voice heard and identify residents with similar concerns.

Although I understand everyone is busy, we feel the timeline to take action is rapidly approaching (the public information meeting regarding Southlands is scheduled for March 31). It appears from the current “Ideas” document that Delta is planning to change the designation of the Southlands in the Tsawwassen Area Plan very soon. It can be stopped only by strong public opposition. If you are concerned with the process undertaken to date or wish to assist in ensuring public opinion is considered for this issue, please attend this meeting.

Thank you in advance.
Dana Maslovat
