I heard that Gloris is stepping down next year, this could be another feather in her cap if she does vote and promote this project. She feels that she was the driving force for the 35 ft height around the lakes, this way she could say that she voted for what was right!

If she does vote against this project, then the Prince Albert Road area "business district" takes yet another punch in the stomach. The land across from the site and immediatly adjacent are zoned C2 as well. They need to be developed in a commercial manner to bring commerce to this area, that will support the growth this area needs and the transformation. Without a strong local income base, then the commercial development will not take place. So instead of bring "world class paddlers and fans" to an area live with local business and amenities, we bring them to what????
