This site is dormant since 1980 ( 5% commercial and 95% incinerator ash). Site also has legal non confirming use. York 1 has not reached out to Committee of adjustments for expanding the operations and total ton of waste they are asking. Read more

I'm sorry, but these proposals for York1 seems like a No Brainer to NOT allow these proposals to go through on a well known Flood Zone that Dresden Ontario is. for close to 100 years this entire area of Dresden is known for its famous flooding. This proposed property is right in a flood zone!!!! Read more

And if they want to continue to build housing for a country that doesn’t already have enough they shouldn’t put a ‘recycling’ facility/landfill in the backyard of a community. We choose to live here for a reason and to take that reason away is not fair to anyone in this community. Read more

This is a dormant landfill. Do not reopen do not expand. How has an environmental assessment not done!! This is outrageous!! This like buying a shed on permitted land and putting 20 condos on it in downtown Toronto. It doesn’t make sense!

This proposal would be detrimental to our small town/the Sydenham river/our farmers and our children. Please put a stop to this dump 1 kilometre for Dresden

YORK1 did everything underhanded, there is no solution that benefits everyone. It’s either a landfill to suit YORK1 or we are treated like our physical and mental health matters, our community matters, our lives matter, our livelihood matters. Read more

I am not in favor of this proposal to reopen this small property to such a large operation running 7 days a week and 24 hours a day. This location is very close to people's homes. The noise from the operation would be considerably disturbing to them. Read more

I oppose this instrument. The information provided by the proponents do not provide the appropriate foundation for the safe design and operation of a waste disposal site. Read more

WHY is York1 thinking of putting this project in the middle of a flood Zone? Dresden has a well known HISTORY of continual major flooding, so opening a landfill dump with Leachate ponds that will drain directly into Molly's Creek in the middle of a flood zone is dangerous and crazy Read more

I understand York 1 is trying to play the “recycling concept” to get into our area but how can anyone understand how this can happen with no change in zoning and being 1 km from the heart of the town!! Read more

Leave this dormant site as is. The community has had no negative impacts from this site as it sits currently until York 1 started distributing it. Methane gas is now present in neighbouring water wells due to a test drill from York 1. Read more

To Whom It May Concern, Please reject York1's application to re-open, expand and repurpose a dormant landfill that is located less than 1km from the community of Dresden, Ontario and metres from a creek that drains into the Sydenham River. Read more

Thank you for your time in reviewing my, my family’s, and our community’s concerns about this proposal. As a proud new resident of Dresden and someone who grew up in the area there are so many reasons why I stand against the dump. Read more
