« Because of its sand and gravel composition, the Regional Recharge Area allows huge amounts of snowmelt and rainfall to infiltrate deep into the ground and replenish the aquifers that supply our drinking water.
« Development reduces the amount of water reaching the aquifers by 50-80% (depending whether it's residential or commercial/industrial development).
« Thus developing (paving over) the Regional Recharge Area threatens the quantity of our water supply.
« Development in this area will put more road salt into our water supply. This threatens the quality of our water supply.
« Reduced water supply will limit the number of new homes that can be built throughout the Region.
« So ironically, building more new homes in the Regional Recharge Area could mean less new homes that can be built elsewhere in the Region!
« Or, it could mean we will need to build $2 billion pipeline to Lake Erie!
WATER IS REQUIRED TO LIVE.
EXPANDING THE URBAN AREA AS DEVELOPERS DEMAND JEOPARDIZES ACCESS TO GOOD WATER.
THIS IS NOT WHAT AN ELECTED OFFICIAL SHOULD BE DOING.
STOP IT!!!
