Dear editor:

I was surprised and very impressed by the Letter Of The Week on page 9 of The Lake Report this past week (Oct. 3). Two excellent and extremely informative letters from Patrick Devine (“Letter: We need a new, comprehensive heritage district plan“) and John Morley (“Letter: The town’s bylaw enforcement is flawed“).

Are we not extremely lucky to have this type of well-informed input and information as to just what is going on?

And there is the question: Just what is going on with this council?

It is obvious that bylaw enforcement really is flawed and in trouble and Patrick Devine’s comprehensive reporting on heritage is a real eyeopener.

I hope this is a first step to help keep these critically important subjects in the public eye.

Now, on to page 10. Brian Marshall’s excellent and extensive information about Glencairn was so interesting (“Arch-i-text: The architectural legacy of the Hamilton family,” Oct. 3) and raises some concern about its future.

And, just a last thought, we must all be aware and give some serious thought to just what we have left and why we love this Old Town — it seems we may be losing it.
