The Proposed New Gun Range – an update... it's been a journey, since Sept. 2022!
I was asked about the status of the defunct gun range. They have been remediating the site (getting rid of the heavy metals), although there is no information to local residents about this process.
Things have been quiet after our township council voted to reject the rezoning required for this new project. That said, the land owner is looking for people to verify the history of the former OPP Recertification Range. There is no one to vouch for this, because it did not exist prior to the OPP and Mel (the land owner, and my hospice client, now deceased) created it in 1986.
I think he is appealing this ruling to the Ontario Supreme Court. It's his last resort. All of us believe he's not got a leg to stand on.
It was written, on my private Facebook page, suggested he is trying to rewrite history! She is the person who looked at historical satellite photos that shows it did not exist prior to the 80's.

September brings wonderful sights and smells. The caterpillars are heading for hibernation.

...he's not got a leg to stand on sound good.
I am surprised that the gun range continues to be an issue.
Here's hoping you have many Jacks in the Pulpit in the spring!
That's a handsome Jack in the Pulpit! What do you want to happen to the property?
Jack in the Pulpit and his mission, what a superb choice of words for the plant, they are really lovely, even if quite short. Just a rest now till next season. The range, hope he falls on his one leg!!!!
Hopefully he fails again. And gives up.
Love your Jack in the Pulpit.
I love going through the woods now and finding these bright red clusters!
Beautiful!
There must be the possibility of lots of money from the gun range.
Hope the front garden is where you'd like more of that unusual Jack plant. Linda in Kansas
Hope the gun range doesn't get to go ahead. Lovely photos of the Jack in the Pulpit and the caterpillar.
I am hopeful that you will continue to be range-free, Jenn. I know it must be concerning and you just want it over. That garden and your photos are lovely.
