Maybe you should target the people that want to buy those condo's. I think if everyone agreed with your views then there would be no market. I think these developers are onto something. I'm poor as shit but i'd like a nice view too. My idea is that they will build & build & build & then, when there is to much housing available, the prices will come down! Supply & demand thing. The goverment won't have to do a thing! Just let M

build. High density apartments along main public transit. Dumfree.

Many years ago another greedy developer build a tower in the rockland area right on top of a hill. Once it became clean to Victorians how out of tune with the enviroment this was, the City refused anymore hill top developments that messed with the ridglines of our beautiful hills and mountains.. WHEW! This new development MUST be stopped. It will permanently ruin what makes Victoria so attractive.

If you care, contact mayor and council of langford.

The Irony is that the greedy developers are promoting the views and vista's, but they have destroyed the views and vista for the rest of Victoria. To top it all off they have Lanford Mayor and council's blessing to go ahead with 4 massive towers right on the top of BARE mountain, with up to 45 floors each. The greedy developers have plans for another 6 towers on the top of the mountain as well.!

BEAR Mountain,, should be called BARE MOUNTAIN

This promo video shows beautiful vistas from all over Victoria and region, however the development itself is a ugly eysore with ugly terraformed building lots and denuded forests. The rest of the region has to look at this mess and it will get worse as it develops on the visible part of the mountain.

Hey, dusty" could you maybe give people visuals, the before (a site called Natural History Atlas on line) and the after, a graphic idea of what this multiple tower hidiosity is going to look like when it is completed? Some may need visuals to "get" it.

Are we 2 commentators the only concerned affected ones here? Wake up, folks. If not stopped this will spell rural life's death knell. Don't leave your quality of life up to Langford. If development generates revenue, why is Langford million$ in debt? And ....What about when the economy turns the other way? You pay.

Eight years planning to manage and control growth in the CRD region and yet the CRD board just voted 10 to 8 for development. Once the precedent is set, the dominos drop one by one, irreversibly. Where is long term water/density planning??? Are YOU ready to be taxed dry?
