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, 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
noise concerns that residents in the surrounding area have had. In the last few years, there
ì ó ï
have been very few noise complaints and any issues have been resolved quickly by the owners
of Homeniuk Rides.

Incorporated requesting permission to operate a midway at 707 Ottawa Street South, Weiland
Ford car lot, from September 29 to October 2, 2011.
