In particular we would like to see a 3 year plan that would see the Municipality take ownership of the Main Street and replace the crumbling and heaving sidewalks and roadway that have become increasingly dangerous for pedestrians which is compounded at night as lighting is another issue that will need to be taken into account. We wish to see a plan to create a streetscape that is welcoming and easily negotiable, for people with varying degrees of abilities. Partnering with the Region of Durham to address the infrastructure under the road namely the water main. There have been a number of water main ruptures over the past years that have resulted in more damage to the sidewalks and roadway, loss of business as water is shut off to those businesses for substantial amounts of time and that also affects the residents living over those businesses and affected areas. The antiquated cast pipes cause the water to be extremely hard, eroding interior plumbing of buildings in Orono creating expenses to Orono residents that other Clarington residents do not have to endure. As business owners we have a legal 'duty of care' to our customers and residents to ensure our products and establishments are safe and maintained to standards expected of by governing bodies and the public. We are asking the Municipality for the same consideration. We would like to see that the amount of passion that Orono businesses have and the incredible community spirit possessed by the residents are reflected in the aesthetics, infrastructure and maintenance of our village. Yours sincerely, Orono DBIA Page 5
