Letters: Dog park safer without lights

Dear Editor,

Somebody has attached a petition on the notice board of the Langley City Dog Park requesting that lighting be installed. I’ve discussed this with a number of intelligent people while walking dogs, and the general opinion is that this idea is utterly ridiculous and expensive.

The Langley City Dog Park is outstanding as it now is. Many dollars are spent on upkeep, the planting of trees, new fencing and the paving of the parking lot for which most of us are very grateful. Lighting the park at night would, I believe, draw the undesirables to the location: motor scooters, bikers, and noise.

Let us hope that the City administration writes a large NO across any request for this unnecessary expense.

Mike Harvey, Langley
