REPORT ON COUNCIL<\/strong>\u2028June 9, 2008
\nCommittee of the Whole Meeting: 9:01 am \u2013 12:35 and 1:00 p.m. – 3:10 p.m.\u2028Regular Evening Meeting: 7:00 p.m. \u2013 7:29 p.m.\u2028All Members of Council present.<\/em><\/p>\n

CONFIDENTIAL \/ CLOSED SESSION:<\/strong> 1:18 p.m. \u2013 3:09 p.m.<\/p>\n

ASPHALTING OF THE TINY TRAILS:<\/strong> According to a report from the Works Department, the rise in the price of oil has increased the cost of asphalt. The plan had been to asphalt the north end of the Tiny Trail, from the gate at the border of Penetanguishese (Bridge P16) to the gate west of Bridge P7 at a cost of $30,000. Council was faced with a difficult choice \u2013 asphalt only part of the distance or find an additional $24,570. They chose the latter alternative, re-allocating funds originally budgeted for limestone screening of the Trail.<\/p>\n

GARBAGE ISSUES:<\/strong> The County of Simcoe has decided to cancel the collection of bulky items which has traditionally occurred in May or June. Both Mayor Breckenridge and Deputy Mayor Lawrence argued vigorously at County that the bulky item pickup is important to many of Tiny\u2019s residents, but failed to gain sufficient support to quash the move. The County intends to move to a voucher system (which will force residents to take their bulky items to the North Simcoe Transfer Station on Golflinks Road themselves, a serious inconvenience and expense for those who own neither a large vehicle nor a trailer. Worse this change comes at a time when many people are shifting to smaller vehicles because of rising fuel costs.)<\/p>\n

The Green Bin organics program begins toward the end of September. At that time the County of Simcoe reduces the Township of Tiny to 1 bag of garbage per household. The logistics of getting green bins to seasonal residents is still being worked on.<\/p>\n

AN AMENDMENT TO THE TOWNSHIP\u2019S NOISE BYLAW?:<\/strong> The owner of the Surf Restaurant made an oral submission to Council asking that the Noise Bylaw be amended to allow commercial businesses to present outdoor music June 1 – Labour Day, until 10 pm, every day except Sundays.<\/p>\n

If passed, this proposal could affect a number of centres along the shore.<\/p>\n

The matter will be discussed on July 14.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
