Central Frontenac Widens Road

On July 30, the Central Frontenac township grader spent over an hour on the road that passes through our property. This road ends in a locked gate. The township also put 6 dump truck loads of gravel on this road, then they spent another 1/2 hour grading it again. In the end, they spent over 3 hours working on a road that goes nowhere that the public can go.

In the process, they knocked down one of our fence posts and widened this road that 
has no road allowance, therefore confiscating more of our property. It's funny how inconsiderate people are allowed to drive over our lawn, cut down our trees and widen a road on our property, a road that is included in our deed and that we have paid property taxes on for over 40 years and the township doesn't even have  he courtesy to answer our letter stating these facts. They also used your tax dollars to have a survey done that we were told to abide by, but then they don't follow it themselves.

Our township's manpower, resources and our tax dollars would be better spent fixing the roads that the majority of the taxpayers can use.  

If you have nothing better to do, take a short drive down this road and see your tax 
dollars at work.
