Common Councillor Peter McGuire wants the province to do a full environmental impact assessment on what powering the expansion of a west side metal shredder would mean for nearby homeowners.
At a public meeting last Wednesday several people raised concerns about possible health and environmental risks associated with the project.
McGuire says the city must take every step to ensure public safety and a full impact assessment should be done on the proposed high voltage, above-ground transmission lines before moving forward.
The issue will be discussed tonight at Common Council when the fate of the project will be decided.
