I live just outside of Uxbridge proper, not far from the proposed site. I hear these trucks speeding along my street. I pick up garbage and bottles of urine on my road constantly. I drink water from my well, and would like to keep it clean.

I do not agree with the proposal. Aggregate pits are intended to be an interim use of the land and when extraction is completed, they are to be returned to the previous use.

I am very concerned about the changes to the site plan for the Miller Boyington Pit #3. I am particularly concerned about the importing of fill and the impacts that this will have on the groundwater of the area.

The site as operated today is already violating the permitted uses under the ARA and ORMCP/A, 2017 by having installed an illegal contractor’s yard.

We must protect our land and natural resources. My family and children are deeply urging the ministry to decline millers proposal. In addition, the ministry must enforce the rules regarding aggregate yards. If not, these large companies are free to destroy as they please
I am vehemently opposed to the proposed changes that are being submitted by Miller Paving Inc. This is a slippery slope that not only impacts current residents of the much beloved "Trail Capital of Canada"; but future generations as well.

I am against this proposal. I’m a concerned resident of Uxbridge who is not in favour of continued abuse and mismanagement of valuable lands that are part of our oak ridges ecosystem.
Miller is looking for quick cheap solutions leaving residents and society and future generations to deal with the cost of bad political decisions made today.
Protect our land. It is a limited resource.

I am writing to express my concern and disapproval of the actions and implications of local pits on the Oak Ridges Moraine. Changes to the operation of these pits could have significant environmental, health, and social implications as well as negatively impacting the value of homes.

I live in the community directly downstream from the proposed lands, namely Uxbridge. Running through our town is a cold-water stream, the Uxbridge Brook, one of the very few left that feeds into Lake Simcoe.

I was upset to learn about the proposed changes to the site plan by Miller Paving. I realize that progress/development needs to continue to meet the pressing demands of a growing population.

This land is on a Highly Vulnerable Aquifer and the industrial build that Miller plans could jeopardize this land and the water it serves to the community.

As an Uxbridge resident and a member of the community, I am extremely concerned about the safety of the water. Miller has a history of non compliance, and in my opinion, demonstrate a lack of respect for the rules in place.

Miller Paving Ltd. must rehabilitate the land on Concession 7 in Uxbridge. They should not be allowed to set up an industrial site at this location nor should they be allowed to bring in 1 million cubic metres of fill from the GTA.

I do not support Miller's request and application.
Miller has a history of non-compliance having been inspected and told to remove their contractor’s yard in 2010, 2015, and 2020, and has not only ignored this but increased the size of the contractor’s yard.

As a 50 year resident of Uxbridge I have seen a lot of change . The township is full of pits and has been a major source of income for many people . To change the laws from extraction and then rehabilitation ,to infilling or industrial sights would be a major mistake .
