Your new home is situated adjacent to the
Medway Creek Valley, which has been set aside as an Environmentally
Sensitive Area in order to protect significant biological
resources. This area is home to a wonderfully diverse ecosystem
that contributes to the Thames Valley watershed and the
greater bioregion of Southern Ontario. Living next to this
natural area provides a marvelous educational opportunity
for individuals, families and the community to better understand
and appreciate our natural heritage. With this opportunity
comes a responsibility to learn how to manage your daily
activities in a way that protects and enhances the sensitive
function of the Valley.
A key environmental objective of the
Neighbourhoods
of Sunningdale, and the purpose of this guide, is to assist
you in learning about the significance and complexity of
the natural features surrounding your new home. We encourage
you to learn more about your community’s ecosystem
and take advantage of this opportunity to practice a lifestyle
that respects this special place.
