QUOTED IN THE VANCOUVER SUN-Check out the article below!
After reading Peter McMartin's article in the Vancouver Sun on Heritage Property earlier in the week, I decided to respond to his question: "Heritage Property, Who Pays?" After reading my letter to him, he picked up the phone and called me and we chatted about how to make the system better so that the city's goal of preserving heritage listed property would not be a burden on those honoured by having their property on that list.
Here is a link to the response article he wrote in the Vancouver Sun. The city manager took note and promised change as early as next week! Let's wait and see how effective that change will be..... more on that soon!
