I am most concerned about the impact on the wetlands. Additionally, mixing permanent housing with recreational vehicles will decrease property values.

This zoning proposal should never be supported in an area where there could be impacts to nearby wetlands.

Stop the special zoning to the proposed bylaw changes. I vote NO to the changes

I am not in favour of the proposed new zoning category.

I request and urge the BERC to rescind this proposal. My understanding that creating recreational lots for 12 trailers off of Joline St, next to the beach, is not in keeping with the NB environmental laws and protected wetlands area. The adjacent proposed trailer lots development is NOT acceptable to the environment, or to the surrounding community. VOTE NO.

I would request and urge the BERC to rescind this proposal. The proposal is at best an unnecessary aggravation and threat to adjacent property owners, and at worst an apparent attempt to accommodate the wishes of one seasonal resident corporate landowner to the exclusion of the concerns and rights of between forty and fifty adjacent resident private landowners – both seasonal and permanent. People will by nature attempt to improve their economic situation in this country – it’s a free country. However, that’s also why we have laws so that the common good for all citizens is protected and maintained and not destroyed for the advantage of a few. When governments fail to enforce these laws, then the trampling of other citizens’ rights and privileges and further chaos and acrimony ultimately results – as well as further poor governance proposals and decisions.

This is not right. I urge the Council to vote NO.

I do not think that a new zoning category allowing 12 trailers to a lot should be passed. The quality of life of property owners would be compromised. The area is already saturated fully.

Our environment must be protected NOW in the Cape Brule to avoid similar abuse in our region.

Trailers do not provide adequate tax base returns for this demands. They are never a capital growth asset, and can only serve to profit the developer, NOT the community. A blight on the landscape, a detriment to the community.

People in the community are entitled to equal treatment by government. There is no justification for changing bylaws that were put in place to protect everyone so that one property developer can exceed the limits that everyone else has to live by.

There are already far too many permanent trailers in the Shediac. The local infrastructure simply cannot handle the increased density let alone the very negative impact to the environment.

this is the last place trailers should be allowed to exist To much wrong is being done to the environment already. Wild life is being driven out of their natural environment to make way for man to inhabit there territory. This is another example of man putting themselves first. When will it end. When there is no ecosystem left and the plant dies because of this. What are we leaving for our grandchildren and there children. We must stop and think of the future not just the here and now. Please stop this development from happening

This corporation is trying to move in on an established 100 year old neighbourhood that has always respected the fragile environment of the wetland adjacent to the area to be developed. The same family has already been in violation of environmental rules and been required to return the area to its former condition. They have taken it upon themselves to make new rules to suit their greed again. Enough is enough!!!
