operations create traffic hazard heovily loaded gravel trucks pass some points at intervals of a minute or even less this creates a great hazard to other drivers and to all pedestrians children etc especially is this true on the sideroads which are not designed for this sort of traffic and are heavily damaged by it as well destroy land gravel mining destroys the land and devalues nearby homes their indiscriminate spread is blight ing some of the most beautiful and potentially valu able land in ontario that the land is valuable apart from gravel is evidenced by its increase in price over the past 15 years from as little as ten dollars an acre to as much as 500 an acre and more with the projected growth of the toronto metro region to 7 million population by 1980 the rapid increase in land values might be expected to continue as more and more people and industries move into the region this population increase and new home construction would provide permanent increase in tax revenues but a prospective new home owner would think twice before investing his savings in a property that might be ruined by a gravel operation starting up in the neighborhood nuisance full scale gravel operations create tremendous amounts of noise dust and confusion many operate from daybreak until late at night destroying the peace of mind and security of nearby residents bring no economic benefit apart from any direct dollar gains to their owners who generally live elsewhere gravel mining brings no net economic benefit to the communities where they operate tax income is negligible by destroying the land the base for future tax revenue is likewise de stroyed with a near full employment labour market the truck drivers and machine operators could doubtless secure employment elsewhere many communities in canada and the united states are now realizing that the reckless exploitation of the past must be halted if we are not to completely ruin our land resources it is infinitely more costly to correct these abuses after they have happened than it would have been to control them in the first place this being a free and democratic country if you believe some measure of planning and control should be exercised over gravel mining in this region please write to the undersigned as a first step toward united action c t muirhead ratepayer rr 1 claremont onh
