NEXUS pipeline opposition grows after York Twp. trustees speak out

 

Property owners opposing the NEXUS Gas Transmission pipeline are lobbying township officials to go on record opposing the project.

“Part of our strategy is to get our elected officials to speak out against the NEXUS pipeline going through a populated Medina County,” Paul Gierosky, of York Township, said. “It’s not law, but it’s an outward expression, speaking on behalf of the people, that they’re against this, too.”

York Township was the first to pass a resolution. Trustees unanimously approved a resolution Thursday promising “to refrain from authorizing or taking any actions that would facilitate or otherwise be supportive of the construction of the Nexus(Spectra) gas transmission pipeline within the limits of York Township, Medina County, Ohio.”

The 36-to-42-inch-diameter pipeline is proposed to go across Ohio and through five townships in Medina County: Guilford, Montville, Lafayette, York and Litchfield.
