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.

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.

I feel that this is will endanger our creeks and waterways. The already at risk, endangered wildlife. Our roads cannot handle the traffic.
I can not afford to have my taxes raised to cover this cost.

I am vehemently opposed to this proposal. There are many dangerous environmental hazards, threatening of wildlife and protected rare species.

With out an environmental assessment to today's standard AND without York1 being fiscally responsible for the maintenance, degradation, widening and rebuilding of all roads leading to and from the landfill, this proposal must be prevented

Absolutely NOT a good plan. Ontarians need food, water and shelter to live. This proposal eliminates prime farmland, threatens watersheds and cancels new housing developments.
It is DANGEROUSLY close to:
i) Century homes and farms
ii) Lambton-Kent Composite School

This landfill has been closed for years and should not be reopened without a full environmental assessment not just bypassing the process by just asking for it to be reopened.

Hi. We are very much against the dump in Dresden. Many health reasons, traffic, smell plus air and land quality being comprised.
We need a full environmental study..
Thank you

Looking at York1's proposal for a landfill outside of Dresden it is hard to believe that this proposal has gotten this far. York1 stated the zoning fit what they wanted to do and had a company Grounded 1 confirm this, both companies took many liberties to make the solution fit the problem.

The proposed York1 facility is extremely close to the town of Dresden and has significant impacts not only on the environment, but nearby properties, infrastructure and health.

I truly hope everyone understands how much our community is against this landfill /eventual dump which would be one of the largest in the province if York 1 gets their way.

It is hard to even fathom that an over 40 year old dormant landfill used for burial of incinerator ash and only used by residents who lived in this small rural town are now having to fight to not have 6000 tonnes of constructive demolition waste brought here and 30000 of soil 24/7.

1. Water contamination: Given the proposed site's adjacency to both the Sydenham River and Molly's Creek, the potential threat of leachate poses a significant concern for water contamination.

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'.

PLEASE do not approve York1’s proposal for this landfill in Dresden!!! What they are proposing is nothing close to what was done at the site before and it has been dormant for years.
