As a longtime resident of Dresden, Ontario it is truly heartbreaking to see our small little town become subject to a major landfill facility in our back yard (literally). The detrimental impact that this will have on our landscape, rivers, wildlife and environment is unimaginable. Read more

This location is still too close to town. 1km is not a safe distance from town. The noise pollution from the continuous traffic and operations will be very disturbing, especially at night. Read more

I’m sure no one will really read this comment anyways, but the thought of this coming to my town is something that is causing loss of sleep and much stress to most of my neighbours and community people. Read more

The Canadian geese, mallard ducks, and other animals flock/ come to the site and the surrounding rivers each year within and surrounding the area proposed by this site. This is not the right place for this site. There is no need to transport outside garages or recycling to our town. Read more

This proposal continues to show the true nature of this attempt. They are using old, outdated zoning to try a force a dump with 1 km of a town and a major waterway. This must be stopped at all costs.

This will have a very large negative impact on Dresden and surrounding communities. Dresden has many tourist operation ties that have only expanded over the 5-10 years, increasing business profits and improving our town. Read more

This is a Ministry of natural resources protected area due to endangered wildlife and habitats. Fishing bans are on during spring spawning seasons where Molly's creek and the Sydenham meet and this dump is supposed to go right on top of the protected area of Molly's creek. Read more

This proposal is outrageous, disheartening and downright unbelievable. The proposed facility is only 1km from a developed town and to be constructed on property that containes both endangered species, and Molly's Creek which feeds right into the Sydenham River. Read more

In terms of the proposal for the expansion of the landfill operations, the site is not zoned for those operations, but also the question of whether it would be approved as a landfill (present day) needs to be considered. Read more

Please say no to York1. This proposal will be very harmful to our community on many levels. Our environment will be contaminated through water wells, water ways, soil, air and wildlife including species at risk impacted. Please help our residents healthy and stop this proposal from happening.
