DATE OF REPORT: February 13, 2018
REPORT NO.: FCS-18-012
SUBJECT: REQUEST FOR MIDWAY 100 THE BOARDWALK and 1400
Ottawa Street South
___________________________________________________________________________
RECOMMENDATION:
That Homeniuk Rides Inc. be granted permission to operate a Midway at 100 The
Boardwalk (Ira Needles Blvd), and at 1400 Ottawa Street South for the dates and
times
BACKGROUND:
Midway events are licensed within the City of Kitchener under Municipal Code Chapter
542 Exhibition, Circus, Midway or Carnival (Chapter 542) as well as Council Policy I-
920 Midway Location Notice (the Policy). The Policy requires that prior to the
approval of an application for a midway location licence under Municipal Code Chapter
542 (Chapter 542), the proposed site and details such as the dates and hours of
operation are brought before the Finance and Corporate Services Committee.
Furthermore, the Policy requires the applicant to notify residents within 120 metres of
the proposed midway location of the hours and dates of operation. This process allows
neighbouring residents to express any concerns they might have and provides staff with
an opportunity to potentially address those concerns. In the past, certain conditions
have also been put into place with respect to granting licences for midways in order to
alleviate noise concerns residents in the surrounding area might have.
REPORT:
Correspondence has been received from Linda Homeniuk, Vice President of Homeniuk
Rides Incorporated, requesting permission to operate a midway at 100 The Boardwalk
(Walmart parking lot) and 1400 Ottawa Street South (Sunrise Centre).
*** This information is available in accessible formats upon request. ***
