A Brief News Note from Doug Draper

Posted August 9^th, 2016 on Niagara At Large

On a Niagara radio morning program this August 9^th, local documentary filmmaker Jon Lepp called a plan to bulldoze over a large tract of forest, savannah and wetlands in Niagara Falls for urban development “short-term thinking,” and he urged listeners to join growing numbers of area citizens in killing the plan.

Lepp, who is producing a documentary on the battle to save Thundering Waters Forest with fellow filmmaker Stacey Koudys, discussed the need to save this natural area on 610 AM CKTB’s Tim Denis program.

He also called on listeners to join him and other Niagara area citizens at Niagara Falls City Hall at 6:30 p.m. this coming August 23^rd to press the elected council of this Niagara, Ontario city to turn the urban development project down at the Thundering Waters Forest location.
