My husband and I live directly behind the proposed waste processing site and proposed landfill site. We are within 540 metres of the proposed site. Read more

Recycling, but at what cost? As a longtime resident of Dresden, and as a mother who planned to raise her eight-year-old daughter here,  I am deeply concerned with York 1’s new plan for the landfill and 'recycling facility'. Read more

We are a concerned family that lives very close to the Sydenham River. I know that dump/landfill/processing area will greatly affect the ecosystem and the transport to such a place will also cause a tremendous impact on the environment so close to a rural town. Read more

This proposal needs to be stopped now! The proposed dump is way too close to Dresden and is an irresponsible decision to move forward. There are a multitude of reasons why this proposal makes no sense and is completely dangerous. Read more

There is one very plain and simple reason/comment/concern - in no way shape or form should a dumping facility be placed this close of proximity to any town and place of residence. Read more

I have been a resident of Dresden for nearly seven years now, and I know that big multi-million dollar business owners from Toronto may not care about the lives of people in small town Southern Ontario, but in this town we don't just care about money, we care about each other. Read more

The sole reason for York1's proposal to repurpose an existing landfill site north of Dresden is to try and circumvent the normal applications and permitting process that would be required for a more optimal location. Read more

This site is not suitable for what York1 wants. The natural waterways that flow in to the Sydenham river contain many species at rick. It is in a flood plain area and the permits are outdated. It also is only 1 I’m from a beautiful historic town. No one can drive without a up to date licence. Read more

The enviromental issues being this close to the community WILL have impacts on peoples health, livlihood and industry. Impacts on our waterway and protected endangered species in rivers will be catastrophic and irrepairable. This whole idea is unacceptable, makes no sense. Read more

A megadump in this area could have dangerous affects on our Natural Waterways and all the protected animals that live in them. Please re-think this whole ridiculous idea

Why are you choosing PRISTINE farm land?? Land that is used for agricultural food production. There are lands else where that would be suitable for this project. The environment will be affected with the emissions from the truck traffic, plus the air quality for us the residents in the area. Read more

The landfill should not be allowed to expand so close to two different water sources. There are multiple endangered species inhabiting the Sydenham. To allow this expansion would be irresponsible and reckless. Read more

As a Dresden Resident and Business Owner, we are absolutely and unequivocally against this plan of York1 to create a Recycling Facility/Increased Landfill at this location. We are calling on the Province of Ontario to REJECT this project. Read more
