More action needed from Delta on radio towers

Editor: I attended the Delta council meeting regarding the proposed KRPI radio towers at Point Roberts - what a waste of two and a half hours of my life (which I can ill afford as it seems my life may be shortened should the towers be built).

I attended the Delta council meeting regarding the proposed KRPI radio towers at Point Roberts - what a waste of two and a half hours of my life (which I can ill afford as it seems my life may be shortened should the towers be built).

After a somewhat theatrical introduction by the mayor, Minister Findlay gave us a very long list of her accomplishments on the matter which was interesting as she didn't seem in the slightest bit interested six months ago when I wrote to her. This was followed by a gushing love in from Mayor Jackson and some spirited back and forth between her and the Delta staff.

Then the crunch; should the council send a letter to Whatcom County registering their support for the residents of Tsawwassen against the towers?

Apparently it shouldn't, they should make some calls and try and speak with Whatcom and Ferndale and then wait a month for the next council meeting where they can presumably talk some more and agree to once again do nothing of any consequence.

This is hardly a new issue!

All of this should have been done months ago. What are we paying them for?
