Write a letter to the city counsellor. In your letter, say how you have learned about the plan explain how it is going to negatively affect the residential area where you live say what you think the city council should do about it
Dear Sir / Madam,
I am writing
this
letter to express my concern regarding the shopping centre which is going to be built near Queenston Drive.
A few days back, I came across this
news article in "The Telegraph", saying the L&T company is planning to build a shopping mall close to the Queenston area
. To confirm that, I asked one of my friends who is working as a senior Architect in the organization.
When I saw the plan, I got a little worried as the place where it is going to be built is currently a park which is located in the middle of the residential area
. Most of the people living nearby, often go there for an evening walk, play outdoor games, and do yoga. Once this
mall is built, residents will no longer have any park near them. Additionally
, the residential area
will become commercial.
I would request you to please reconsider your decision and if possible construct the mall maybe somewhere outside the residential area
without disturbing nature.
Yours faithfully,
