Council Broad. 580 00:27:05,680 --> 00:27:10,000 » Thank you, Warden Marriott. I attended 581 00:27:07,440 --> 00:27:12,040 the meeting in Dresden. Uh when it got 582 00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:14,480 to the traffic study, it's showing 583 00:27:12,040 --> 00:27:16,840 approximately 10% will be coming from 584 00:27:14,480 --> 00:27:20,000 the north. Whether that's down 21 585 00:27:16,840 --> 00:27:21,520 Highway, 80 Highway to 21, I'm not 586 00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:22,920 really sure 587 00:27:21,520 --> 00:27:24,520 uh what the route will be cuz again it's 588 00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:27,640 just a study. It doesn't say they have 589 00:27:24,520 --> 00:27:29,880 to do it. To me, the big question is on 590 00:27:27,640 --> 00:27:32,440 the York 1's information there, they 591 00:27:29,880 --> 00:27:34,840 showed 200 trucks a day. 592 00:27:32,440 --> 00:27:37,760 Well, 10% of 200 trucks a day is a lot 593 00:27:34,840 --> 00:27:39,600 different than 10% of the 700 trucks a 594 00:27:37,760 --> 00:27:41,760 day that they were asking for a 595 00:27:39,600 --> 00:27:43,600 previous. So, unfortunately, we don't 596 00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:48,040 know whether it's a 200 or whether it's 597 00:27:43,600 --> 00:27:51,640 a 700. Uh 10% 200 lot different than the 598 00:27:48,040 --> 00:27:54,280 10% of 700. So, um and don't expect York 599 00:27:51,640 --> 00:27:56,120 1 to send you any information. If you 600 00:27:54,280 --> 00:27:59,200 want any information, you got to track 601 00:27:56,120 --> 00:28:00,880 it down yourself because uh York 1 isn't 602 00:27:59,200 --> 00:28:03,000 doing a very good job with the 603 00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:04,400 information. And to be quite honest, you 604 00:28:03,000 --> 00:28:06,680 can blame a lot of that on the province 605 00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:08,400 of Ontario because they did not want the 606 00:28:06,680 --> 00:28:10,360 environmental assessment done and this 607 00:28:08,400 --> 00:28:13,120 is what happens. Now you get little bits 608 00:28:10,360 --> 00:28:15,760 and pieces of information. So, um yeah. 609 00:28:13,120 --> 00:28:17,400 If if it's a 10% 610 00:28:15,760 --> 00:28:20,240 if we have to, we can kind of live with 611 00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:20,960 that. But again, is it 200 or 700?
