THE PROPOSED HUNDER GRAVEL PIT

Today's Elmira Independent gives us further proof that the new Woolwich Council are following through on their election promises. The story "Township opposes Hunder gravel pit" advises the readers that this proposed pit between Conestogo and Winterbourne is contrary to good planning values. That being said many other gravel pits have gone ahead despite huge negative impacts on neighbours. The difference here so far is a Council who have the old fashioned quaint idea that they represent more than the wishes of the well off elite including developers. Also included would be the efforts of the residents in the area who are putting their time and money where their mouths are. Kudos to them for hanging in there.
