The Sperry's Beach Committee delivered a letter to Richard Hurlburt,
Minister of Natural Resources, on February 8, 2005. It contained details
of Crown ownership of the Sperry's Beach area back to 1812 and a request
for a meeting with him. In his response dated March 24, 2005 he repeated
his Department's position denying public ownership and made no reference
whatsoever to our request for a meeting.
Our MLA Kerry Morash subsequently offered to arrange a meeting with
Minister Hurlburt, and asked us to provide a range of possible dates, which
we did on April 26. A full month later on May 26, as the dates he had
requested had all passed without so much as an acknowledgment of receipt,
we wrote him again to ask if he had any further plans to assist in this
situation. While we know he read that email, he has not replied.
We have taken the initiative and set a date for that meeting.
It will take place in public, Saturday June 25 at 2pm in the Petite Riviere
Fire Hall. At that time, we will report to our community on our efforts
since the July 28, 2004 public meeting and detail the government's
response. We will provide an opportunity for Minister Hurlburt and the
public servants that performed his Department's 'exhaustive research into
Crown ownership' to present their position. We will provide an opportunity
for MLA Kerry Morash to present his position. And we will invite public
discussion to determine the next course of action.
We invite you to attend.
Sincerely
Sperry's Beach Committee
