LETTERS: Council is wise to take its time on Mr. Mikes decision

Dear Editor

Re: Mr. Mikes in Anvil Centre

This issue highlights the tension in city council’s desire to both move forward and maintain the identity of New Westminster in its urban development plan.

Mr. Mikes could be said to represent the traditional tastes of New Westminster, while a more idiosyncratic restaurant might represent its aspirations.

The prominent location in question heightens the importance of making the right decision in this case.

Mayor and council are wise to take the time they need to do so.
