HUNDER PIT PUBLIC INFORMATION SESSION

Page 22 of this week's Woolwich Observer carrys a Public Notice that Woolwich Township will be holding a public information session in regards to the proposed Hunder Pit. It will be held at Council Chambers on Tuesday April 9, 2013 at 7 pm.. Apparently there is additional information provided by the applicant to this pit on the edge of Conestogo near Golf Course Rd. This is to ostensibly give the public a chance to comment upon it.

If any of you have wondered why this process seems literally unending and goes on for years and years it is to discourage opposition to these "development" proposals that have major social, environmental and or health impacts. Literally even people who have the money for lawyers nevertheless are not built for these ongoing external stressors in their lives. It becomes easier to throw in the towel or even sell your home at a loss and move elsewhere. That is precisely why there are years and years of headaches and delay built in. Meanwhile the proponents are still operating their businesses with the knowledge that 90% of the time individuals and small groups can not sustain the energy and disruption to their everyday lives. The system is unfair and totally meant to be that way courtesy of your provincial government in favour of the aggregate industry.
