LETTER

Project at Vanier / Faubourg? 

I cannot agree with the proposal to create a daycare of 80 kids at 147 Vanier Road in Aylmer.  Zoned as residential, it does not provide room  (80 kids = 80 cars for staff & parents, drop-off/pick-up on Faubourg).  As a resident of Faubourg Street, I am concerned with the increased traffic. We already have trucks here from senior residence construction.

Several of us have paid fees for premium lots which this daycare will nullif.

The bike/walking path beside 147 Vanier is used daily by seniors, young families,  pupils, and teens busing on Vanier to high school.  Changes here will impact the area --  a path just built/paved and a line of trees, thanks to the ban on removing trees for commerce or construction.

Opening our street to Vanier---unnecessary--may be planned.

Despite no consultations, residents must have a voice.  Covid19 does not justify silencing residents.

 will also raise these issues with MP Fergus and Councillor Duggan.
