During a recent government meeting, officials expressed gratitude to residents and city employees for their support regarding the controversial incinerator proposal at Airport West. The discussion highlighted the passionate community response, with many residents traveling to voice their concerns about the potential environmental impacts of the incinerator.

Commissioners emphasized the importance of unity in the face of discrimination, particularly towards Haitian Americans, and thanked the commission for passing a resolution condemning such acts. This resolution underscores the commitment to fostering a supportive community environment.

While the incinerator issue has been deferred, officials cautioned that it is not resolved and urged continued vigilance. They reiterated that Airport West is an unsuitable location for incineration and committed to keeping the community informed about future developments. An update meeting is scheduled for next Wednesday at the Sunset Lakes Community Center, where residents will receive a status report and discuss next steps in the ongoing fight against the incinerator proposal.
