LVCA meeting excludes community

Dear Editor:

An announcement has gone out to the members of the Lynn Valley Community Association to take part in an information meeting where BOSA explains their plans regarding the Lynn Valley Centre development. The meeting is scheduled on Nov. 21 from 7 to 9 p.m. at Molly Nye House. The meeting is only for members that have joined before Nov. 1.

I am highly disappointed that LVCA is continuing on the path of excluding everyone in what is happening in Lynn Valley.

After all, it is a "community association." So would it not be reasonable to have an open discussion that includes everyone? It leaves everybody wondering what is really discussed at these meetings and why the secrecy. Why does LVCA not listen to the people that they claim they represent?

Emails that were sent to the LVCA in regard to this meeting remain unanswered.

The residents of Lynn Valley are already upset about the highrise proposals and to hold private meetings with the developer (BOSA) is not going to resolve the tension in the community. What is LVCA really trying to accomplish? To alienate everybody?
