This sign grabbed my attention today. I spotted it as I walked down Bridle Path Road in Heathcote. I’m not sure how long it has been there but probably not long. I’m guessing it’s in response to the red zone announcements that were made regarding parts of the Port Hills. I don’t personally know how many houses are affected in Morgans Valley but from the Land Check Map it looks like two thirds of the valley is red (uneconomic to repair) and the rest is still white (still to be determined). This is so distressing for home owners, many have to give up the homes they love, while others have to continue to wait for their fate.

It’s these random acts of thoughtfulness though that make things just a little more bearable for everyone and whoever took the time to put the sign up is indeed a very kind and thoughtful person.
