On 12 October 1993, a parent living in Orono Estates made a presentation to the Operations and Finance Committee requesting bus transportation. This parent voiced safety concerns over lack of a safe walking route for his child to Orono Public School. The Board forwarded correspondence to the Municipality of Clarington describing the need and asking for the provision of adequate sidewalks and a crossing guard. Previous to this, administration met with an officer from Durham Police for a site inspection. The officer suggested that a barrier be erected along the off-ramp of Highway #115 which connects with Mill Street in Orono. Subsequently, at their Regular Meeting of 18 November 1993, the Board approved the following motions: that transportation be provided for students residing in the Orono Estates Subdivision by routing Bus #37 through Orono Estates and establishing one pick-up point, that this transportation be"provided until a satisfactory resolution to the issue of a safe walking route to Orono Public School be provided and with the condition that the transportation can be arranged on the existing bus tr~pb~rnr~t7.as ATTACHMENT N0. 2 1 0 4 9 ADDENDUM TO WD-2-94 - .ar .. - •_ ' Honorable Gilles Pouliot Gordon Mills, M.P.P. 8 December 1993 Page 2 route without the need of adding another bus, and that this transportation be provided until June of 1994 if necessary and be reviewed at the June 1994 Meeting of the Operations and Finance Committee, and that the Board forward correspondence to the Ministry of Transportation and to G.
