WOOLWICH FORMALLY PURCHASES VICTORIA GLEN LOTS FROM REGION

This story is on the front page of last Friday's Woolwich Observer. The title is "Acquisition of regional land secures Elmira's Victoria Glen as green space". This is a downright victory for local citizens, the environment and the new politicans here in Woolwich. Our old Council seemed prepared to balance their books by selling off this jewel and Todd Cowan and others disagreed. Our new Council must continue to fulfill their other environmental promises as best as is humanly and politically possible. We are all still awaiting a solution (comprimise) for the Bio-En, in town proposal, as well as gravel pit woes.

  1. As for BioEn, you may want a comprimise but residents of High Street do not. Are you a BioEn sympathizer???!@?! Take a smell of the Martin Pet feed plant lately? ELMIRA ADVOCATE? Advocate for who - big business - come on people get a grip on the world - take your kids to bolender park and have a whiff

  2. The comprimise I would very much like to see entails Bio-En, which produces green energy, doing so in Woolwich Township OUTSIDE of Elmira and away from any residential subdivisions.
