Stop the Asphalt Plant - East Canaan, CT
Donation protected
IT’S NOT OVER!
On September 11, 2019 B. Metcalf Paving, Inc. filed its fourth legal action against the Town of North Canaan Planning and Zoning Commission in Litchfield Superior Court. For those unfamiliar with the situation, B. Metcalf Paving is trying to put in an asphalt plant in the backyard of residences and within 1/3 of a mile of the Blackberry River. The Metcalf property was never an industrial manufacturing site. It is a rural area of farms and businesses, vineyard, a fishing club, residences, a church and state park. Will it remain so?
Any asphalt plant will risk area drinking water aquifers , the air quality, the health of residents , our safety , our general welfare and property values in the entire town of North Canaan.
Your donation will help STAP build a legal defense fund and public awareness campaign to meet this threat to our community.
The appeal letter below was sent out in the postal mail to residents.

community, not lower taxes.
