Hi everyone,

We finished our final prehearing committee meeting with the lawyer Gavin earlier today and have a few updates to share with you.1. The petition in opposition to the overhead powerline route has ~760 signatures. We would love it if we could break the 1000 signature mark. Please share one more time with your friends and family! The petition will be shared with ENMAX, municipal decision makers such as the Mayor and our councillor as well as referenced in the actual hearing as being evidence to strong opposition. Here is the link to the petition as well as the QR code. 

2. The timelines for the AUC process are as follows…

  • This coming week our lawyer Gavin will work with our witnesses to prepare for their testimony for the hearing.
  • The actual hearing runs from May 26th to 28th from 9:00 to 4:00pm.
  • The actual decision by AUC on the powerline route will likely be around the end of August.  
  • 30 days from the close of the hearing Gavin will submit a cost claim to AUC for his expenses as well as the expenses for the expert witness (David Capper of Urban Systems).
  • Decision on how much of Gavin and David Capper’s costs will be covered will be determined by the AUC in the early fall, after which we will work on refunding any of the remaining ($15,000) retainer.

3. The hearing is virtual and public –  click here if you would like to watch the live-streamed hearing via YouTube starting Monday, May 26th at 9:00am. 

4. ENMAX has responded to our submission with “Reply Evidence”. If you are interested in reviewing ENMAX’s response the documents are attached but please remember the process does not allow for any new submissions or responses to this “Reply Evidence”

5. DJ Kelly has crafted a terrific op-ed piece that we hope will run in the Herald this week with the goal of creating further awareness and with the hope of exerting some political pressure on the decision makers. Keep your eyes peeled and share it as well.

We will continue to keep you up to date on any further developments.
