I don't think this site is…

I don't think this site is in a location that makes any sense. The only reason this site is being proposed as a landfill is because of how it was used in the past. This site is right beside and directly across from residential homes. This site is right next to Molly's Creek. This site is too close to the town of Dresden. If this location was located near Toronto it would be part of the green belt and no one could build anything on it let alone make it into a landfill. I find it frustrating we have to convince our government this is a bad idea because of a poor decision made in a time when experts thought the solution to pollution was dilution.

In the past experts thought that no harm it would be to create large pits to manufacture clay tile but we now know it was probably a bad idea. Then in the past experts thought no harm would be done to dump ashes in the pits we created but we now know it was probably a bad idea. Then experts said it would be ok to use this site for recycling wood. We now know it was probably a bad idea. Now the owners are saying this proposal shouldn't cause any harm. We are only going to bury construction garbage but if we have to we can do a study asking experts if it is ok. I hope by now we should just know without asking an expert that this is just a bad idea.

Please understand the logical fear of the community close to this site that if this is allowed to happen that some day an expert will ok turning this site into a large residential garbage dump.
