Excerpt from Shannon Mews Neighours’ Association website:
Shannon Mews is a 10-acre estate located at Granville and 57th Avenue.
Our neighbourhood:
-
is predominantly a single-family residential area with a cohesive neighbourhood identity;
-
is low noise, low traffic and safe for families with children;
-
is located in an urban forest environment.
Why we exist:
We formed in October 2010 as a direct result of the recent redevelopment proposal of the Shannon Mews estate by its owner, Wall Financial Corporation.
Our goals:
-
Raise awareness and alert ALL neighbours about the details of the rezoning application;
-
Voice our significant concerns about the scale and character of the redevelopment proposal;
-
Inform ALL neighbours about the deceptive history of the community participation to date;
-
Encourage ALL neighbourhood owners to contact the Mayor of Vancouver, the City Council and the City Planning Department with their concerns and opinions regarding the redevelopment proposal;
