Reminder: Upcoming Wakefield meetings


I look forward to seeing the new and safer highway 5 extension to Wakefield. I also look forward to seeing less traffic on Riverside Drive (where I happen to live). However, I would like to see more public consultation with the current environmental impact assessment process so Wakefield concerns for things like access to Brown's Lake and protection of the Valle Verde aquifer and the Valley Drive spring are considered by project proponents. I think this is reasonable...


Upcoming Wakefield meetings
 
- Jessie Pratt of the Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency will be in Wakefield on May 13th at 7.00 pm to speak about how environmental assessments are supposed to work at the Federal and provincial levels. (organized by Peter Andree). Contact Helene-Anne Fortin in Wakefield for details.
 
- On May 19th at 6.30 pm - plan to attend the Transport Quebec Public Hearing being held at the Arena in Masham. This is an important opportunity for Wakefield residents to make some noise and provide some public input into phase 2 of the highway 5 extension to Wakefield.
