Dear Editor:
Pedestrians can’t walk down the east side of busy 15th Street in West Van without walking into oncoming traffic, because of a large overgrown cypress tree covered with thorny blackberries obstructing the entire walking path into the street.
I was almost hit by a car recently, having to walk into traffic. This is the second year of calling on the district about the same derelict property.
This is an unoccupied house during a time when the news says there are no affordable homes or rentals. Maybe there should be more focus on unoccupied houses and their impact on people and the community and raising the cost of living for Canadians.
