Not sure why an application should be delayed or rejected because nobody in the community seems concerned with the application.. It's not like the public wasn't notified or given a chance to provide input - they simply chose not to.
Kroetsch: "the applicant has done nothing to consult with the community" - yea, you know, ignoring the public meeting they held...

Typical pontification by Kroetsch. He is the one leading the charge on the greenbelt development stuff, but he also doesn't want development in the downtown. I'm not sure what this guy wants.
I'm not surprised no one showed up to that meeting either. For one, not many people actually live around that area that would be opposed to it. It's mostly located in a parking lot wasteland. Most people probably welcome the development, and therefore chose not to go. Another knucklehead move my council and city hall.
