On Monday Dec.14 at 5 pm there is a working Council meeting which the public is able to observe as it is live streamed. Attending this session is valuable as the topic is complex; creating a new bylaw to manage the importation of fill, the alteration of the grade of our land, the movement of fill is critical.  When it is poorly controlled there is significant risk: at minimum it can be troubling to those in proximity and in worst case our landscape, the acquifers providing drinking water can be contaminated.  In the Council report good background is provided as to the valuable new provincial legislation regulations under the Environmental Protection Act when have addressed soil quality and transportation aspects.  The proposed new Bylaw will build on this but the specific limitations of amount of fill permitted in King needs to be determined,  And very importantly the process for permitting fill and change of grade i.e. site alteration needs to be established.  As reviewed in the report there are plans for public consultation. I am very pleased with the work done to date. Visit speaking.king.ca to register to be alerted when there is action on this file.
