The City of Burlington has advanced the design of the reconstruction of Townsend Avenue between La-salle Park Road and Eagle Drive including proposed drainage improvements and Low-Impact Develop-ment (LID) stormwater management techniques. The objective of the project is to improve the function and condition of Townsend Avenue, promote onsite stormwater management through infi ltration, storage and other LID methods and repair eroded sections of Teal Creek. A public meeting was held on June 13, 2013. At that meeting, residents provided their input on the recon-struction of Townsend Avenue.
An additional public meeting has been scheduled for:
Date: Monday, Oct. 28, 2013Location: Aldershot Arena,
Community RoomDrop-in Open House: 7 to 8:30 p.m.Presentation: 7:15 p.m.
The purpose of this public meeting is to inform the community of the progress of the project, and to dem-onstrate how comments received at the initial public meeting have been incorporated into the design.
We are interested in hearing any comments or input
that you may have about this project. Comments and information regarding the project are being collected to assist the City of Burlington during the detailed design process. This material will be kept on fi le for use during the project and may be included in design documentation.

Are you properly sorting your waste at city facilities?
Over the past few years the City of Burlington, with the support of Halton Region, has signifi cantly increased the options for properly sorting your waste at several of our public spaces.
Unfortunately, waste audits done at Tansley Woods Community Centre and Appleby Ice Cen-tre showed high contamination rates (the percent-age of material that should not be in a particular container). The contamination rate ranged from 17 per cent to 66 per cent at Tansley and from 12 per cent to 59 per cent at Appleby.
We need your help to properly dispose of your waste.
Which items go where?
• Commonly misplaced items are listed below along with where they should be disposed:
• Hot beverage/coffee cups, sleeves and drink trays – GreenCart
• Coffee and drink lids (no straws) – Blue Box
• Plastic plates, cups and plastic take-out containers – Blue Box
• Snack and yogurt containers (fi lm and foil removed) – Blue Box
• Food waste and compostable papers (drink trays, paper plates and cups, tis-sue, paper towels, paper food packaging, paper bags) - GreenCart
• Styrofoam, plastic cutlery, candy wrap-pers - Garbage
With your help, we can increase waste diversion in our public facilities. For more information about how to properly dispose of your waste, please visit www.halton.ca/waste. For information about City of Burlington environmental initiatives, please visit www.burlington.ca/environment.
