At the regular council meeting on December 13, the BVRA was a scheduled delegation. Ed O'Neil congratulated the new councillors on their success in the recent municipal election. He outlined our concerns about the potential for cumulative negative impact from the proposed Beaver Valley Village subdivision to the quantity and quality of the local groundwater, focusing on the issue of density. Forty-five lots on private wells and septic systems is unacceptable to us, in an area already susceptible to well-water shortages and contamination. Ed informed council that since our last presentation, the MOE has stated that they still have concerns.
The BVV proponent and planner were in attendance.
Later on the agenda, the planning report for the BVV was presented for discussion purposes only. The planner is still recommending that the council forward conditional acceptance to the County for final approval. Councillor Stuart Halliday and Deputy Mayor Paul McQueen commented. Mayor Wayne Fitzgerald suggested to the BVV planner that the proponent's team meet with the BVRA and councillor(s) to discuss concerns. We look forward to this opportunity.
