Mrs. Joyce Riener of the Erbsville 'Residents' Asso- ciation expressed fears that the ecologically sensi- tive forest areas on the Sugarbush Developments property would not be ade- quately -protected if the development was allowed. She also argued that the desire of the developer to have trails constructed through the woods would disturb the wildlife. "The people of Erbsville do not really want this de- velopment there. They like the area the way it is now." she said. Other Erbsville residents expressed fears that new wells drilled by the devel- oper would lower the wa- ter table And dry out exist- ing wells. However. Leon Bryck, a hydrology con- sultant hired try Sugarbush Developments, told council that the possibility of inter- ference with existing wells was very remote, City “I wouldn't expect any interference with existing wells at all." he said. , Council also assured the Erbsville residents that existing provincial legisla- tion makes the developer responsible for replacing ensting wells that may run dry director Carolyn Turner.
