Letters: Trying to keep our quiet, small town feel

I suppose when Delta gets too busy for you, you will move onto another community needing your development inspirations.

Re: resisting change (Opinion, May 4 Optimist)

Welcome to our community Ian.

You are a newcomer arriving in 2015 and starting work in 2017 at the Optimist according to your profile. How do you like Delta and the friendly family atmosphere so far?

We who have lived in Ladner and Tsawwassen do our best to adapt to changes in our community. We have all seen many changes. Some of us decided to move here much earlier than yourself, during our working years. I take it you do not commute?

You must understand us Delta residents some now in our 70’s spent many years commuting every day to downtown Vancouver, Coquitlam etc. so that we could retire in a quiet community like Ladner, Tsawwassen and Boundary Bay. We just try to keep it that way with no harm the best we can.

I suppose when Delta gets too busy for you, you will move onto another community needing your development inspirations.
