My mother Bernice Beal, purchased unusable, landlocked land from the gravel pits as a last resort to stop gravel extraction beside the lake that would have destroyed Barrie's Lake and Gilholm Marsh. We own about 80 acres in North Dumfries and would rightly never be allowed to build more than one dwelling on our property because of the Barrie's Lake wetlands, however, Cambridge may be allowed to build an entire subdivision at the east end of the lake. We are very concerned about groundwater issues and the lack of government controls and inspection and how this will affect the wetlands and wildlife.<o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'> <o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>Also, drilling for soil samples is taking place directly north of Barrie's Lake, across Roseville Road.
