WCS Logistics General Manager & COO, Peter Yates, recently shared insights in an Open Forum article in The Wi******er Star regarding the proposed Cider Hill NDD rezoning. As he noted, the current proposal overlooks the impact on long-standing businesses in the area. Wi******er Cold Storage — along with other companies that have proudly operated in this part of the City for decades, and in our case, for over 100 years — has serious concerns about the implications of this designation.
We remain committed to advocating for thoughtful development that respects the legacy and future of Wi******er’s business community.
