Dear Editor:
At the July 20 regular meeting, City of North Vancouver council voted 5-2 in favour of attending the Walk21 Conference in Vienna this October. This is a conference where people talk about how to make their cities more walkable.
Two councillors voted against this frivolous use of tax money, Rod Clark and Pam Bookham, while Mussatto, Bell, Keating, Back and Buchanan voted in favour.
Our North Van residents know how to make our city more walkable — repair the aging, broken-down sidewalks.
Don’t waste our money on expensive trips to Europe. We would all like a trip to Vienna but we wouldn’t expect someone else to pay for it.
I.A. Blanchett
North Vancouver
