Ottawa Now - Councillor Dudas says 'we have to start looking' as Trail Road landfill nears its expiration date

City Hall is engaged in talks to purchase a private landfill in Ottawa’s East End, a direct attempt to help address the municipality’s garbage disposal needs. On Friday, the Finance and Corporate Services Committee voted on whether to purchase the Capital Region Resource Recovery Centre, located at the intersection of Highway 417 and Boundary Road. It passed 8 to 3, with Orleans West-Innes councillor Laura Dudas among the crowd of voters who approved the idea. She outlines her reasoning on today’s Ottawa Now.
