President's Message
Spring has finally arrived
and with it comes our annual membership drive. Membership chair Betty
Karsh has been busy organizing this year’s campaign and most of you who
have volunteered to canvas should have received your kits by now. This is
our only fund raising event for the year so when the volunteer canvasser
calls, please support your community association and purchase your annual
membership. Your membership fees help in the publishing of our monthly
newsletter and allow us to continue to support community events such as
Winterfest, Earth Day, Heritage Day and the Summer Concert Series.
Without this financial support, some of these events would not be
possible....

HIGHLAND CREEK TREATMENT PLANT PETITION
OUR EFFORTS CONTINUE: SIGN THE CCRA'S
ONLINE PETITION OR
PAPER PETITION
AND
EMAIL US AT PLANNING@CCRANEWS.COM TO TAKE A LAWN SIGN !
Read the CCRA's
Action Plan against Trucking of Sludge to find out how to
help our next steps.
The Highland Creek Treatment Plant
multihearth incinerators are at the end of their service life. As a
result, the City of Toronto’s Biosolids Master Plan (BMP), a
six-year study and environmental assessment, recommended that
fluidized bed incineration be the preferred method for processing
future solid waste at the Highland Creek Treatment Plant. In May 2011,
however, City Council went against staff recommendation and voted to
pursue trucking of sludge.
Please sign the C.C.R.A.’s
online petition or
paper petition
that asks City Council
to reconsider its decision to truck solid waste at the Highland Creek
Treatment Plant or at minimum
require a comprehensive and consultative environmental assessment of
this method.
More information on this
issue and petition can be found in the
November 2011 Conservation Report.
