Notice of Study Commencement

Paris Road/Golf Road and Trunk Watermain Environmental Assessment Studies

INTRODUCTION

The City of Brantford has retained BT Engineering Inc. to plan for improvements to Paris Road and Golf Road and the extension of the trunk watermain in the vicinity of Highway 403, Canadian National Railway and surrounding area. The roadway project will be carried out as a Schedule C study under the Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (MCEA) February 2024 and the trunk watermain project as a Schedule B study.  The road and watermain EAs are being undertaken concurrently due to the proximity of the projects. The Study Areas are shown below.

STUDY PROCESS

The Study will follow the MCEA process by establishing the need and justification for the project, considering all reasonable alternatives with acceptable effects on the natural, social and cultural environments, and proactively consulting with the public, stakeholders and Indigenous Peoples.

PUBLIC CONSULTATION

Public consultation is vital to this Study and the City wants to ensure that anyone with interest in the project has the opportunity to provide input. The public is encouraged to visit [Brantford.ca/ParisGolfRoadEA] to learn more about the project.

There is an opportunity at any time during the Class EA process for interested persons to provide comments. Early identification of individual and group concerns greatly aids in addressing these concerns.  All information will be collected in accordance with the Municipal Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act (2009). With the exception of personal information, all comments will become part of the public record.
