IMO this is one more example of MB's effort to "reach out" to the citizens of Berlin and get the concept underway in a "Home grow" manner. If you visit the blog, you can read the "rest of the story:)"!

"Laidlaw Energy's Good Neighbor Commitment to the Citizens of Berlin

As many of you know, for the past 18 months we have been working on developing the former Fraser pulp mill site into a state-of-the-art bio-mass power facility. I am pleased to inform you that we are under contract to purchase the property and expect to be the new owners within the next 60 days. We have arranged financing and will embark on permitting and contracting over the next 12 months, with construction slated to begin early fall of next year. We fully expect to be operational in 2010, producing clean renewable energy from the same wood resource that has produced paper in Berlin for the past 100 years.”


Although this letter from MB is dated 6/16/2008 @ 15:22 I have not come across it until I visited “The City that Trees Built” blog.
Can anyone give me any insight as to when and where this letter was delivered? According to the date on the blog, it was after the vote. Also I am wondering how it was received.
If the blog is correct and I am assuming it is, there is also a petition circulating which the blog claims has over 500 signatures to date. Is there any other current information I may have overlooked?
TIA,
Nez
