Im not the best at writing these types of letters, but here are my own words as a Ward 3 resident:


Please vote for the West Harbour Stadium Location

Hi Bernie, as a resident of your ward, I wanted to encourage you to vote for the West Harbour location for the PanAm stadium.

There has been so much information on the table to digest regarding the debate between the two locations, and after analyzing the data, I have come to the same conclusion as the experts that have studied the case: the West Harbour location is the best place for a stadium for the citizens of Hamilton. I believe this very strongly. I don't want my tax dollars to go towards the construction and maintenance of all the road and service infrastructure needed to build a stadium on the East Mountain. I want the West Harbour brownfield to be cleaned up and developed in a way similar to what the White Star Group has proposed. I want to encourage a livable city that has transportation options that go further than the 'driveway to driveway' experience that is being lauded for the East Mountain site.

Most of all, I want you to make a decision that is in-line with the desires of so many Hamiltonians -- not one that is in line with private interests. Please vote for the West Harbour location.

Thank you.
