Letter to the Editor: Council made wrong decision on housing

Posted

Editor,

The Shoe cartoon that [The Reflector] ran in the Nov. 15 edition says it all. [There is] no better example than the Woodland City Council, which didn’t vote on the change to single-family housing. [It was] an opportunity to preserve pride of ownership and what likely would have been a better community.

Because of this, we will now have to contend with more traffic on [state Route] 503 and the likelihood of more crime.

The City Council seemed more interested in just preservation than doing it. I would have preferred a vote for the change, but I would have more support for one who voted, regardless of how.



I am surprised by how many votes they garnered as they should have received more.

I guess we have uninformed voters.
