Rosie Kerr of Snow Road launched a thoroughly-researched petition on Change.org, detailing all of the reasons why the proposed cell tower doesn't belong there. You can find it by going to Change.org, clicking on the little round magnifying glass at the top, and
searching for "North Frontenac". Please read and consider signing.
Todd White, CEO of CRINS, found out about the petition, and do you know what he did? He said he would refuse to consider the petition or its reasons in his final report to the federal authorities, unless the it was registered on his CRINS website, something that is not possible for a petition.
Todd White's authority for this is the 2015 North Frontenac bylaw permitting CRINS to "receive and process" comments on the proposed tower. Now we know what "process" means for a seasoned bureaucrat with a documented history of contempt for public opinion. It's time for council to rescind that bylaw and accept its responsibilities to its ratepayers.
