This area needs to stay protected. Please consider the negative impacts of this project on the environment. People have worked hard for so many years to protect this area. It is heartbreaking that all that effort could be ignored and reversed.
Gwen supported: Protect Vulnerable Habitat from Industrial Truck Parking in Surrey, BC
The work of A Rocha of protecting our ecosystem and educating youth about the same is invaluable as we as a community seek to move towards sustainability. Industrial development will cause immediate harm to the ecosystem that they protect and will seriously limit our ability as a community to thrive in the future. For the future of our community, do better!

If we don't protect our environment, silence replaces the beauty we once took for granted. Let's consider the effects now.
Alyssa supported: Protect Vulnerable Habitat from Industrial Truck Parking in Surrey, BCI have yet to visit that area of Surrey, but it is high on my wish list because I have heard of its beauty. A beauty that, if this truck lot proceeds, will be ripped from all those who love it, including its non human inhabitants. Please consider all the lives that the truck lot would negatively affect; preserving nature is not only good for our planet, but the mental well being of everyone who lives on it. Thank you for listening.
Arwen supported: Protect Vulnerable Habitat from Industrial Truck Parking in Surrey, BCI strongly oppose this "Temporary" and urge the City of Surrey to reject the proposal for truck parking at 19230 – 20 Avenue (Project No. 7925-0126-00).
Bypassing Accountability
The use of a Temporary Use Permit to sidestep environmental impact assessments & the long-term planning safeguards that You are hired /elected to oversee - without any public consultation is unacceptable.
We deserve visionary, accountable, and ecologically sound planning, not short-sighted industrial sprawl.
A Rocha and the Brooksdale Environmental Centre have spent over a decade restoring this land and engaging Semiahmoo First Nation, youth, vulnerable populations and volunteers in ecological restoration, organic farming & environmental education.
This truck park threatens the integrity of their work, and the the broader vision of sustainability Surrey claims to support. Once Surrey was called the City of Parks & the erosion of parkland and biodiversity in Surrey is appalling.
There are other City-owned lands that are already zoned or impacted by industrial use. The citizens should not have to constantly educate the City on how to reduce harm and why they should avoid displacing long-standing environmental stewards, and reflect better planning principles for our future citizens (children, grandchildren).
This is not a question of “jobs vs environment.” We can and must find solutions that create employment while upholding ecological integrity, community wellness & Indigenous land stewardship principles that the Semiahmoo are trying to ensure across these unceded lands. The current proposal does not meet these standards.
Andrea supported: Protect Vulnerable Habitat from Industrial Truck Parking in Surrey, BCI've been watching the city rezone land and destroy it all for 'progress' - hundreds of parking stalls. We ripped up 100+ year old trees and habitat for rabbits, deer, owls, coyotes which I've all seen. This is unnecessary destruction of land.
