<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>To Woowich Council. Last nite when I
was typing this , I hit a wrong key and it disappeared from the
screen. My computer skills leave very much to be desired.
Fortunately I had copied it to myself and today I find it intact.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>It was my intention to sign this ,as is the
proper way to send a legitimate letter to Council and the newspapers
et al.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>My signature should
read Ginny
Quinn 102 Pinehurst Crescent,
Kitchener ON N2M 1E4
519-578-0005.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I would like to add a PS to the bottom of my
letter.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The Aggregate Industry is well known not to
refurbish the areas they quarry, quite probably because there is a
sort of special clause in the contract or instructions, that allows them to
leave 10% of the amount they have been licenced to remove, and they say
they must be able to have access to it. (I have been told this by people with
far more knowledge of this industry than I have.) I have also been told
that in Europe , they cannot go forward to another pit until they have fully
cleaned up refurbished the one they just been working
on. How I wish the Government which sets out the
rules, not sure if it`s MNR or MOE
would change this to force cleanups ASAP before allowing them to
proceed. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I`m told that from the air ,this area looks like
Mars with all the open, unrefurbished pits. It would be
interesting to see just how many pits are currently
open. Respectfully
submitted. Ginny Quinn as above.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Dear Council , Staff and Decision Makers of
Woolwich Township:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>You have a very difficult decision to make very
soon, regarding the protection and survival of one of your most precious
and recognized heritage and 'tourist attractions' in your locale.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> Yes, I speak of our well known and
beloved "Kissing Bridge" in Westmontrose. In the interests of
progressing into the future, and building more and more onto our increasingly
diminishing greenbelts, environmentally sensitive landscapes, wetlands, forests,
much needed (and less respected by potential developers and aggregate miners and
their cohorts) it is with a very strong hope that you will listen and 'hear'
what the protective citizens are saying.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Once we lose it , it's gone forever
<STRONG>and then again forever</STRONG>.!</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Guelph has just had a situation wherein 151 charges
have been laid( by the city) for the unapproved tree cutting.
Be that as it may, the beautiful, aircleansing trees are gone, and they are
<STRONG>gone forever</STRONG> 'at this point in time.' Yes, we can plant more
trees, but they need to mature and will take many years to reach the maturity of
the trees that were "slaughtered" , to help this area to cleanse
and help to purify our smog infested air. I am told that there are
some developers whose attitude is ' do it and get it over with and face the
consequences later"."Once it's done , it's done, and it's over... and pay the
fine.!!".</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> Please preserve your very own local heritage
"Kissing Bridge" and if some of you councillors need more time to deal with this
very important potentially altering of your community's future ,
please put it on the 'back burner' for another
meeting. </FONT></DIV>
