BACKGROUND:
Council policy requires that prior to the approval of an application for a midway location, the
proposed site and details as well as the dates and hours of operation be brought before the
Finance and Corporate Services Committee to allow an opportunity to address the potential
concerns of residents and further that the applicant be required to notify residents within 120
metres of the proposed midway location that it will be operating, the dates and hours of
operation and the name of the sponsoring charity. Council has approved similar requests for
the past 10+ years, the latest being February 22, 2010.
The conditions as noted in the recommendation have been in place since then to alleviate any
í ó ï
noise concerns that residents in the surrounding area have had. In the last few years, there
have been very few noise complaints and any issues have been resolved quickly by the owners
of Homeniuk Rides.
REPORT:
Correspondence has been received from Linda Homeniuk, Vice President of Homeniuk Rides
Incorporated requesting permission to operate a midway at 707 Ottawa Street South, Weiland
Ford car lot, August 18 to August 22, 2011.
As directed in the by-law the Regional Health Unit and the City’s Traffic Division have been
advised of this request.
