OPAi SHORELINE MANAGEMENT PLAN UPDATE
October 30, 2016 Leave a Comment
Please see below the invitation for public attendance at the upcoming ABCA Board of Directors meeting. We were successful in persuading the ABCA Board to hold the meeting in a different location than what would normally be the case, that only allowed for about 10 viewers. However, this shift in venue has resulted in an earlier date than anticipated. It is to be held:
Date: Thursday, November 3, 2016
Time: 11 a.m.
Location: South Huron Recreation Centre, 94 Victoria Street East, Exeter, Ontario
The Agenda for this meeting can be found here. We are asking for your attendance at this meeting.
This meeting is to deal with the following motion against proposed restrictive measures on shoreline properties.
“Resolved, that the ABCA Board of Directors declares that it does not intend to implement the ABCA Shoreline Development Guidelines of Section 7.8 in the report (pages 113-117) in its proposed form and does not endorse the underlying principle of “managed retreat” and the unilateral prohibition of any shoreline protection works.
OPAi’s response to the ABCA Board of Directors can be found here.
