LAST HOUR to save Trout Lake view cone. Speakers urgently needed

We need your help. Only a handful of people have signed up to speak in defence of the Trout Lake view cones this Wednesday, Feb 4 at City Hall.

You must sign up by 5pm today, Tuesday, Feb 4, to address Vancouver City Council and help stop the destruction of one of the last panoramic public mountain views in the city.

As a refresher: The changes are hidden in the larger City-wide Design and Development Guidelines – Targeted Refinements and Implementation Actions report. CityHallWatch wrote a detailed post with more info.
