So Much Potential
I love the former Ontario Reformatory lands and feel they are vital, not only as accessible parkland for the community but also for their heritage value. I became aware of the work of Yorklands Green Hub several years ago as their vision for the land matched my own. I was very excited about their hope to preserve the OR lands for the public but also to keep the history of the site alive and use it as a focus for education and sustainability. I've been very impressed with the overwhelming support they've received from community members in all walks of life and see a great deal of potential for the City of Guelph to become a leader in this area. I strongly urge the committee to take this vision into consideration.
