L1C 3A6 JUN 18 1990 Dear Mayor Hubbard and Members of Council: T 0 `_ C [[ :.,. tt•. t We know that you get criticism so we feel,_jt is only right that you als�ja.----- praise. We, the people of Hampton United Church, feel that you are on the "right track" regarding the bridge. This bridge will bring our congregation and village closer together again. We have found that the absence of the bridge has caused the life of the Church to be disrupted, not only for attealdance at Church Services and Sundae School ,hait` at many mid-clreek activities, since many of the people do walk. It also. has beeq%brought to our attention that, due to the absence of the bridge, � t"'is"'v convenient for adults and children to have access to school, post office, park and the many activities that go on in the community. In reference to the park, vie have been in contact frith C.L.O.C.A. and the to neighbours on either side with a favourable response regarding the possibility of a parking*, lot for the park off thb north side of ML11 Street (see copy of letters attached). Since many cars park along Scugog Road and Mill Street on both sides of the street,posing a safety hazard, and in the Church parking lot, we would suggest this would be an ideal time to proceed with a parking lot. The lot adjoining our Church parking lot is being deeded to the Church and any extra soil could be dumped in there. Please feel free to contact either of the under-signed Z-dth regard to the above.
