CULTURAL HERITAGE LANDSCAPE DESIGNATION IS CLOSER

Both the Woolwich Observer and Elmira Independent have stories this week in regards to the public meeting held to further give information and receive comments. "West Montrose CHL nears designation" was the story in the Independent. The Observer story (pg.5) was titled "West Montrose nearer to heritage designation for bridge area". Both of these articles mention citizens speaking both for and against this designation. Clearly this CHL designation which was initiated prior to any citizen knowledge of gravel pit proposal(s) in the area, will make the hurdles higher for these proposed pits.
