This is an urgent issue for Simcoe County residents. By 2031 the population of Simcoe County, Orillia and Barrie is to have grown by about 250,000 people. This will impact our air and water quality, our health, our lifestyles and our tax bills.
How can our municipal councils meet the challenge of building healthy communities within ecological limitations?
Our panellists will present their perspective and we want to hear from you – what are your concerns and ideas?
Refreshments and Home Baked Goodies Provided. All welcome! Bring a friend.
