Dear neighbour! Lanark County Council is reviewing their 2018 roadside management approach to wild parsnip on Wednesday October 25th, so if you have something to say to the councillors about this issue now is the time to send them an email!! You could also phone them and ask them whether or not they will be voting for a continued spray program. Last spring we only lost the vote not to spray Tay Valley by one vote...so our voices can make a difference! Council will be hearing delegations and presentations at the Lanark County Building, 99 Christie Lake Rd (Sunset Blvd) , Perth at 5 pm. Reps from our Public Health unit, Health Canada and the Invasive Plant Council (which is supported by Dow, BASF and Greenstream) will be making presentations, as well as Dr. Meg Sears and Friends of Lanark County. No questions are allowed from the public, but you are encouraged to ask your councillor to ask your questions – consider asking them to do so when you email them. The link to the agenda is https://lanarkcounty.civicweb.net/document/74842 If you live in Tay Valley it is important to send a letter asking for the County Council to respect the wishes of our township! When you email councillors, please copy the clerk: ldrynan@lanarkcounty.ca If you prefer to just send one email, then send it to the clerk and ask her to distribute your email and record it as communication. smousseau@bell.net 257-1645 lantonakos@sympatico.ca 257-1459 jerryflynn@rogers.com 257-4748 achurchill@storm.ca 264-8404 gailcode@ripnet.com 264-0432 brian_stewart@sympatico.ca 253-4609 hallj@sympatico.ca 278-0647 smclaugh@storm.ca 256-9834 janetorrance@hotmail.com 256-3576 lanarkbill@gmail.com 283-5270 vandermeer@bellnet.ca 283-6423 jfenik@rideau.net 264-8078 jgemmell24@gmail.com 267-4102 kmkk@ripnet.com 267-4025 bfcampbell.tayvalley@gmail.com 267-4754 rkidd@ripnet.com 257-5409
