A delegation with respect to Lakeshore Road appeared before
Committee of Council at 8:20 p.m.
Present were
Mrs. Carol Harden; Mrs. Fenton and Mr. Herb Harden.
The first matter brought to attention of Committee of Council
was the parking of vehicles along the Lakeshore Road and County
Road 27, mainly by fishermen. The parked cars tend to interfere
with traffic on the Road as well as Snow Removal and of more
concern, no room for a fire truck to get through.
.
The next item was the matter of reconstruction of the Lakeshore
Road through Concession 7, the delegation enquired as to what
was the proposal for further work on this road. It was suggested
that the reconstruction of the entire road may be necessary.
Resurfacing, as has been previously done, would be more economical
and the reconstruction of the Bridge west of line seven should
be a priority. Mrs. Harden also mentioned that all the people
involved should be advised prior to commencement of construction
before same takes place. It would appear that more people in
the area do not want a major reconstruction, only a reconstruction
of the road not extremely wide ditches.
