Airdrie headed for major problems

Re: “Mayor asks Airdrie to be patient with growth,” June 25

Dear editor,

I take exception to the mayor’s comment that Airdrie’s growth has been phenomenal. In my opinion, a much more accurate description would be out of control and mismanaged.

It seems that projects are popping up here, there and everywhere. Some of the things you see seem to be out of place. It leads one to question if there is really planning going on. The perception is that the City of Airdrie planning department seems to be simply planning and responding to builders’ and developers’ requests.

It’s time for the City to get control of our development and slow things down. If they don’t get a grip on things, we are headed for major problems.

Victor Trcka, Airdrie
