WOOLWICH OBSERVER DESCRIBES CWRA DELEGATION TO COUNCIL

Last Tuesday evening the CWRA (Conestoga Winterbourne Residents Association) was represented by Doug Joy who was the only private citizen to speak to the Hunder Pit issue. The title of the Observer's article in today's paper is "New information. Same conclusion). Sometimes one gets the idea that proponents of various developments feel the need to keep throwing more and more paper at the parties in order to bolster their positions. Tuesday night seemed to be about that as Mr. Joy indicated that there was absolutely nothing worthwhile in the latest submissions by the proponent. The Observer's article also reiterated the September 2013 date for the start of the formal OMB hearing. Mr. Kennaley of Woolwich Township has indicated that he is currently studying these latest submissions and will report back to Council with a recommendation on May 21/13. In my opinion Council have their backs to the wall. The close to ninety people who attended this week's Council session will brook no excuses and no comprimises from the Township on this pit. Socially and environmentally it is not an appropriate location and no amount of paperwork or excuses will make it so. It's crunch time council.
