Who is the developer pushing this? This very alarming. Look at what happened with (formerly rural, now insustrial) land in MRidge, folks. I think that was Onni - not exactly model corporate citizens . In any event, the city there didn't even follow the OCP it misled the public into believing. Now the warehouse/industrial areas have spread way beyond what was allowed in the OCP. It's going to happen in Abby and greedy politicians/developers are doing the same with South Langley. When will the greed and madness stop? Your comment will be posted after it is approved.
