To whom it may concern
We wish to ask that a full environment assessment be done on the proposed dump in the town of Dresden. There are many reasons to perform a full environmental assessment

I am concerned about traffic flow and safety and how that will impact our children, our sports teams and the agricultural industry. We have a vibrant industry here and very active community.

This former BOMB DISPOSAL and GUN RANGE SITE has never been used as a dump. The property is within one km from the town of Dresden and has a creek running through it that connects with the Sydenham River which leads to the Great Lakes System.

I’m writing to express deep frustration with the provincial government’s decision to fast-track the proposed landfill in Dresden — and to remove the environmental assessment that was promised to the community.

The environmental assessment is a basic necessary step with regards to a project of this capacity that will effect the lives of everyone in this community. Removing it would be unethical and irresponsible.

Please, please do not remove the EA from the York1 disposal site. It is imperative to understand that all we have worked for and gained with taking care of our environment over the past 50 years would be thrown out the window if you did this.

I would like to submit a comment expressing my disagreement with the decision to remove the environmental assessment requirements for the York 1 project. This site was never subject to environmental assessment requirement's. York 1 significantly expands the scope of use for this site.

I wish to call attention to the removal of a required environmental assessment of the Dresden Ontario dump site. Premier Ford is fast forwarding a process that will endanger the health, safety and economic growth of our very precious agricultural community.

The York 1 waste site would risk endangered species through water run off into adjacent waterways. Also the distance from the 401 through precious farm lands and small towns with school zones will be a hazard to our farms and school children.

Please take a second to think how you would feel if there was a dump being proposed 800m from where you live, where your children go to school, where you worship, hang out with friends and where maybe three cars go past your house, on a daily basis!

I am a Dresden resident, the proposed landfill is too close to our town! I am concerned about air pollution, water pollution and big truck traffic. Our wildlife is also in jeopardy, many species at risk
No to the dump! I was born and raised in Dresden since 1951. Attended elementary and secondary school in Dresden. I own a family gas station business. It would hurt our business plus other businesses in town. Very concerned with heavy traffic through town. I worry about the smell!
As a farmer with property to the east within 2000 feet of the proposed site I am concerned about the environmental effects on my crops and the values of the property.

We are not a bunch of small-town nobodies, in Dresden, Ontario but even if we were, our lives, our children, our homes and our community are just as important as someone from a big city!

This Dresden dump idea is very scary and upsetting! Why would our own government do this to us! We have always been led to believe that we live in a compassionate province! We have taken it for granted that constituents have value and we look out for one another!

I do understand that we are facing an “existential crisis” right now! That crisis is putting a dump 800 metres from the town of Dresden in the Municipality of Chatham Kent! The crisis is coming from “within the house!” Our house! Queen’s Park! You can’t close the barn door after the horse escapes!

Bill 5 is clearly an abuse of political power that sets our democracy back 50 years. Today, it’s a dangerous dump within .8 km of an incorporated town of 2800 people. Tomorrow it may be in your back yard.
