No to over densification yes to more safe cycle routes, rapid transit and safer walkways

I recently moved to Port Moody from the West side of Vancouver - where I was born and raised. I slowly watched Vancouver develop to the point that walking safely around the city became challenging, the congestion of cars was incredible and traffic was often at a standstill. I could add what environmental impact this all has as well. The reason I chose to move to Port Moody is in the basic sense - to live in a smaller community , close to nature. My greatest fear is another city that is willing to tear down green space to create high rises and more development. What I really hope is that the City looks at safer bike ways for cyclists, better pedestrian walkways and sidewalks , and the preservation of green space. The access to nature is why we moved to Port Moody , bigger is not always better.
