I, the undersigned, am opposed to the construction of another gas station on Lake Thomas waterfront in Fall River, Nova Scotia. Community waterfront parkland would be a better use, continuing to play a part in controlling run-off, and being consistent with our long term plan. I will not support this development at any stage and believe that, with our collective will, it will ultimately fail to make a profit. I call upon the developer to respect the community vision document and the wishes of the residents of Fall River and to shelve this plan. I believe we have to protect our waterways and our environment for future generations, and this plan does the opposite.
We hit our first major milestone and the momentum is clearly on our side now. Post this link on your Facebook page today and email your local representative to demand they protect the waterfront from this development.

The runoff alone is worth stopping this. Once the water is polluted you cant fix it.

Ridiculous. Nobody asked for this. Leave the parkland alone.

We dont need another gas station right on the lake. The traffic is already bad enough in Fall River without adding more congestion by the water.

Keep our lake clean. Gas stations belong on the highway not next to our community parks.
