Have Your Say


Would you like the opportunity to have your say about the future of our community, whatever name it goes by? Whether it be Hutchison's Corners, or Beaver Valley or Vandeleur or Bowles Bluff, we live here in a part of Grey Highlands, in Grey County and on the Niagara Escarpment that has been identified in all three jurisdictions, as a growth area. Within five years, there could be municipal sewers and water. One thing is sure - change is coming. What can we do?  Until now, we have been reacting to development proposals already underway - first the Beaver Valley Woodlands and most recently the Beaver Valley Village. We have put up a good fight and we have had an impact, but wouldn't it be so much more rewarding to put that same energy into creating the community in which we choose to live. The Have Your Say initiative provides that opportunity. The process began over the summer of 2011, but it is not too late to be included. Ed O'Neil and Cathy Little would like to have a meeting of interested individuals  to get this ball rolling here and preferably before November 15. There's nothing to lose and so much to gain. We thought BVRA members would like to be involved, but this is not a BVRA activity; it is an ad hoc group of local interested property owners. If you are interested, contact Ed or Cathy sooner rather than later.
