Introduction

The Municipality of Leamington has retained BT Engineering Inc. to complete a Schedule C Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (MCEA) (2024) for improvements to Mersea Road 1, from County Road 33 to Mersea Road 12, in Leamington, Ontario. The study will evaluate alternatives to ensure the roadway has capacity for future planned population growth.



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. Caldwell First Nations will be consulted throughout the project. Upon completion of the study, an Environmental Study Report (ESR) will be prepared and on the public record for a minimum 30-day review period. The document will detail the planning and consultation process and the study recommendations and design.


Public Consultation

The public consultation process is a key part of this Study, and the Municipality of Leamington is committed to ensuring that everyone with an interest in the project has an opportunity to share their input. Residents are encouraged to review the draft Study Design Report (SDR) and ask questions. The draft SDR outlines the proposed process and methodology that the Study will follow.

Public feedback is welcome at any time throughout the Class Environmental Assessment (EA) process. Early identification of individual or community concerns is especially valuable, as it helps the project team address issues proactively and effectively.

Please note that personal information collected as a result of this public consultation centre is collected under the authority of the Ontario Environmental Assessment Act, and the Municipal Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act (MFIPPA).
