Dear John Having read many of the letters yoii have received concerning the Wellington Senior Citizens Condominium Condominium project, I wish to add another small voice to those in favour. The project will undoubtedly undoubtedly add a large amount to the town's tax case. And, if there are 150 apartments, some or even many of these will have one occupant. Sen- citizens, most of them, avoid driving if they can and Durham East Liberal Association ÊIBERAL eventually do not drive at all. Nor do seniors I have great hordes of visitors, so it seems to me the traffic argument argument is overblown. Where better in the town to have such a facility, within within easy walking distance of churches, library, post office, town hall, banks, shops and to put it euphemistically, the government store? I have spoken to a great many seniors in the course of my business and every such one saw a need in the town for this accommodation. accommodation. We all sincerely hope it goes ahead.
