Good morning Carleton Place—–PLEASE SHARE
At tonight’s Town Council meeting a member of the River Corridor/Urban Forest Committee will be, or hopes to express concern that the Town is permitting the developer who bought Bodner Park, to relocate a storm water management pond (swamp) from their construction site to that of adjoining Roy Brown Park.
If it goes ahead, the proposed storm water management pond will be built too close to our river and, if it overflows, go into the river which is upstream from our drinking water. Direction #127243 from the Planning and Protection Committee to be voted (and passed) at tonight’s council meeting. Public Park land sold out to a housing development.
Does this explain why deer were running down Victoria Street this week from the destruction of 200 maple trees?
