Resident flags new chain-link fence at Monument Park; committee notes heightened border screening
Summary
A resident reported a black chain-link fence blocking the yellow-curb access at Monument Park; PRCAC members also noted intensified vehicle-screening barriers at the Peace Arch crossing in recent days.
During the meeting's second public comment period, a resident reported two people installing a black chain-link fence near the yellow curb at Monument Park and asked whether the work was authorized. Committee members discussed the installation location and whether it was on U.S. or Canadian side; one member suggested Homeland Security or border-control operations may be responsible.
Council members also observed increased border screening at the Peace Arch crossing and added that zig-zag barriers and lane reductions had been noticed by residents who cross frequently. The committee did not take formal action but asked staff to follow up to determine the identity of the workers and whether permits or agency actions were involved.
