Joe Domitrovic, 3872 Courtice Road, Courtice, LIE 2L5 addressed Council with
respect to his application for an Official Plan Amendment to allow him to
continue his auto body business. He indicated that he has taken care of the issue
of the encroachment on his neighbour's property and requested that Council
consider the approval of his application.
Mike Bilsky, 8250 Old Scugog Road, Enniskillen, LOB 110 addressed Council
with respect to Report WD-4-98. He distributed his findings based on the
technical background which formed the basis of Report WD-4-98. Mr. Bilsky
proposed the installation of speed humps as a traffic calming measure in
Enniskillen. He indicated that they have successfully tested in the area of
Whitevale and he is of the opinion that they would alleviate the concerns of
residents in Enniskillen also.
Tom Daize, 8268 Old Scugog Road, Enniskillen, LOB 110 was called but was not
present.
Lloyd Thomas, P.O. Box 28, Whitevale, LOA 1MO advised Council that the
residents of Whitevale experienced the same frustrations as the Enniskillen
residents with the speed and volume of traffic in their community. After
attempting many different solutions, speed humps were installed. Although
motorists were initially resistant to the installation, the humps have been
successful in decreasing the speed of the traffic, the volume of traffic and the
noise emanating from traffic.
Beverley MacRay, 55 Whitevale Road, Whitevale, L1H 1MO was called but was
not present.
Ed Millson, 48 Cobbledick Street, Orono, LOB 1MO addressed Council on behalf
of "The Quebec Committee for Canada", requesting that Council endorse a
resolution "demanding the government of Canada to clearly and unequivocally
state that they support the right of federalist municipalities and regions within
Quebec to remain part of Canada, today and in the future, in accordance with the
legal, moral, political, constitutional and territorial obligations of our nation."
