<DIV>Hi John:</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I thought I'd send the following information from the Region's
website to everyone. It is dated, but it may help to
understand the next steps that were to follow after the Jun 16/09 decision by
Council on the ROP. </DIV>

<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I presume that most already know that the southwest corner of Kitchener
has been removed from the Protected Countryside designated area in the
information sent out recently, as compared to Map 7 that was
presented to Council for consideration on Jun 16th. The current Map
7 can be found here (takes a while to download all the maps to get to Map
7):</DIV>

<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>It is very important that we attend the open houses and voice
our concerns. From what I have heard, many of the negative comments
the Region has received pertain to aggregate extraction or misunderstandings
about what can or cannot be done on land after the designation is in place
(similar to the ESL residents' concerns). Regional personnel welcome any
comments, especially our support for the Protected Countryside, as well
as our continued support for the same level of protection for the southwest
corner of Kitchener. They strongly suggest that we put our comments in
writing at the open houses (the written comments carry considerable weight and
will be included in a report to Planning & Works as mentioned in
the report above).</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>There are still two open houses scheduled to be held in Baden on Oct 7th,
and in Elmira on Oct 15th as stated in your previous e-mail. I encourage
everyone to attend.</DIV>
