Dear Siz
We have
been residents of Port Coquitlam foz ove 14 years
and currently reside in the new Citadel Heights sub-division.
Citadel Heights is a very attractive
and we are very hapny
to be living here. When looking for azea
a new home, we decided to
stay in Port Coquitlam if at all possible, since we aze very fond
of the city and its

amenities .

At the rear of oux'roperty
the City (legal description is: is a heavily treed area owned by

"Remaindez of No. 6, D.L. 232, Gr I, Plan 68514")
The Citadel Heights subdivision has very few trees, due to its
previous history, and there is danger in losing the few thar are
left. It would be a great loss to this azea if the beautiful
evezgreen and dogwood trees on this city
pzooezty were to be
removed. This would certainly happen if the
pzoperty were sold
oz developed. The pzoperty itself has a dean
ravine in its
center which reduces its suitability for single
oz multiple
family housing. In addition
is
home foz many birds and small
wild I I f e .

it

We
would aopzeciate careful consideration
the City to
keep this prone ty as a "green belt" to be lezt by
in
its natural
state. Removal or thinninq of these t ees would zemove
one of

the last few treed az as on this side of Mary Hill and would be a
great loss.
We
hone the city will take ouz suggestion to heazt and
maintain this small poztion of remaining
natuzal environment.

ICOSI

Yours very truly

o
cc. His Worship, The Mayor
