Our fight

We elected a municipal council that now appears to have abandoned many of the long held beliefs and safeguards Springfield residents have enjoyed and counted on to ensure our quality of life and property values are protected.

The Springfield Development Plan and Zoning By-Laws adopted by Springfield Municipal Council in consultation with the public and approved by the province should be there to manage and protect land use and our RIGHTS AS RATEPAYERS!

Springfield Taxpayers Rights Corp. endorses the Save our Water Springfield campaign.

Berger Peat Moss Plant

As concerned taxpayers, the first challenge we are addressing as a group is the Berger Peat Moss Plant located on 22054 Oakwood Road.

Springfield Taxpayers Rights Corp has been created by Springfield Taxpayers who are concerned with our local councils’ actions and decisions regarding:

  • Lack of Regard for the health and well-being of affected residents
  • Irresponsible Business Growth and Development in Springfield
  • Minimal pubic input, meaningful public consultation, and democraticaccountability.

What has the RM of Springfield Council allowed?

RM Springfield Council has allowed an Industrial Manufacturing Processing Plant to fully develop 160 acres of Prime Agricultural Land. This manufacturing plant is surrounded by residential agricultural acreages. Below are two images of Bergers’ Hadashville Peat Moss Manufacturing facility so residents can see what the potential impact to our community will be.
