General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours

[danbrotherston]

I understand paying for the new pipes that go to your development, but we all know that these recently quadrupled park fees are not going towards parks for these new residents - this is a shakedown that’s been going on for a while and will have some real blowback sooner or later.

Are you suggesting that this money isn't being spent to expand parks area, number, or facilities? That's possible, but I would assume there are some guardrails on it.

Just to be clear, I don't expect these parks will be for the exclusive use of new residents, but new parks increase the park space available to ensure that the addition of new residents doesn't overwhelm the existing park space.
