Friends Of Rockwood Park Want To Make Their Case Before Common Council



















The Friends of Rockwood Park are asking Common Council to be allowed to make a presentation before the city's Planning Department makes its recommendations on where development should take place adjacent to the park.

 Spokesperson Joan Pearce tells CHSJ News there seems to be push to approve development even though the city doesn't appear to know where the park's boundaries are.

The group is also presenting another petition to Council with 11 hundred names on it opposing development at or in the park which would include Sandy Point Road.

She also claims if people sold land to the city with the intent of having it as parkland then it would be unfair to allow development on it.
