We need our park. As the population will go up due to the arrival of 16,000 new residents, we need more park for outdoor activities for the community, not less. City needs to honor original east Fraserlands project to house day care, sports field, community center, and schools. Please build the daycare on the original location and leave Riverfront park alone.

With so many new developments in the Fraserland, the green space available in this area should be increased (not decreased) in proportion with the rising population.

Please keep this park as it is. It is used and enjoyed by so many people.

Move the Fortis plant and build the daycare in its place instead. It is an eyesore and doesn't belong in a residential area anymore.

This is my granddaughter and her dog Kira's favourite place to run, play ball and fly kites. I will miss it when I am there providing care for my family

I've seen many people using this green space. In this area it is rare to see such a vast expanse of flat green land that isn't a golf course and is open to the public. Please keep it this way.

I moved into River District 2 years ago and have enjoyed this green space. I am well aware that the site is not zoned park space but it should be. It is the only non allocated green space from Boundary to Victoria Drive. The space is used for family picnics, ultimate Frisbee and by community groups conducting fund raising where a large field is required. Once gone it can never be replaced.

You just can't steal our Park, just because you want to build condos. It is outright stealing.

We need to protect our green space! Especially with all the development in this area. My family uses this park all the time and would hate to see this leave our neighbourhood!

We want to keep our parks. Remember that when a park is gone, it will never comes back! We sent you to the City Hall for you to fight for us in this issue and we put a total trust on you!

Please keep the park. There is not enough fields in our city. We need more open spaces to keep up with all the densification.

I live on East Kent Avenue and walk here everyday. This area needs more green space and the field provides the only large flat area for field games and unorganized sports in the area. We could also use some sidewalks west of Arygle and and cameras that will catch the people who think this is a free dumping area.
