New development is good for city; traffic isn't

Re: Where is the mayor's logic?, Letter to the editor, The Record, April 11.

There is a difference between the two groups referred to by Mr. Musser. One group is driving though New Westminster over new bridges proposed by the municipalities from whence they come. The other group resides in New Westminster in those new towers or works in the new buildings precipitated by our mayor.

One group contributes to the taxes that build the roads, manages the buildings and supports infrastructure and other needed services. The others do not. Like the mayor, I believe that we should provide room for the former and not pay for the room for the latter.
