Dear Mr Taylor:
Per your notice in the 12 June News Advertiser, I am nominating Ashmore Reesor
(8042 Reesor Rd, Markham L6B lA8, 905-294-2124) to serve on the Growth
Management Study Working Group. He has agreed to this and has the support of a half
dozen or so local farmers. He farms in both Markham and Pickering and owns 100 acres
at the southeast comer of the Townline and Whitevale Road in Pickering. He has served
on various advisory groups to the province, during the nearly thirty years that they owned
this land. Would you please contact him by phone or mail, to let him know this
nomination has been received?
Also, while I have your attention, how do I correct an item in the 13 May Planning
Committee minutes? I am quoted as saying that the working group should include a
"landowner," but what I actually said was a "farmer"-and I suggested four or five
names, including Ashmore's.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
~
