10 minutes.
>> Yeah, I practiced so

19
00:01:29,735 --> 00:01:33,920
[laughter]
Okay. Uh so I disagreed.

20
00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:38,479
» Yeah.
>> Okay. So, dear mayor and members of

21
00:01:36,320 --> 00:01:42,000
council, my name is Angie Vincent and
together with my business partner,

22
00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:46,320
Adrien O' Conor, we are the owners of
two locally operated businesses in Zels,

23
00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:51,200
Real Obsession Sport Fishing and the
Zvel Fuel Station. We are writing to

24
00:01:49,119 --> 00:01:54,799
respectfully request that council
consider supporting the regulated use of

25
00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:59,520
fully electric golf carts within the
village of Sabalis and where necessary

26
00:01:57,200 --> 00:02:02,719
advocate on behalf of our community to
the Ministry of Transportation and

27
00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:06,560
Transit to explore options that would
permit their use.

28
00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:11,120
Let's start with a bit of background for
you. In mid June of this year, we were

29
00:02:09,039 --> 00:02:14,800
advised by local authorities that
concerns had been raised regarding the

30
00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:19,599
operation of our golf carts within the
village. As a result, we discontinued

31
00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:23,280
their use and have returned to relying
on conventional vehicles for guest

32
00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:27,360
transportation, operational task, and
day-to-day errands. While we understand

33
00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:32,080
the importance of ensuring public safety
and regulatory compliance, this change

34
00:02:29,599 --> 00:02:36,560
has highlighted how valuable electric
golf carts have become, [clears throat]

35
00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:40,640
not only to our businesses, but also to
many members of the community. We

36
00:02:38,640 --> 00:02:46,000
respectfully ask council to consider the
broader benefits that a regulated golf

37
00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:50,400
cart program could provide. Why electric
golf carts would benefit develops and

38
00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:55,280
surrounding communities.
Reason number one, accessibility and

39
00:02:52,879 --> 00:02:59,040
inclusion. Our primary reason for using
golf carts has always been

40
00:02:56,640 --> 00:03:02,480
accessibility. Many of our guests are
seniors or individuals with mobility

41
00:03:00,879 --> 00:03:07,440
challenges who find it difficult to
climb into large pickup trucks or walk

42
00:03:04,879 --> 00:03:11,280
long distances. Every year we welcome
guests who rely on these carts for safe

43
00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:15,519
transportation, including a returning
guest who is legally blind that visits

44
00:03:13,599 --> 00:03:20,159
twice each summer and another who uses a
wheelchair. Golf carts allow us to

45
00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:23,840
transport these individuals safely,
comfortably, and with dignity while

46
00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:29,440
reducing physical strain on both our
guests and our staff. As one of the core

47
00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:33,519
protections in our Canadian Charter of
Rights and Freedoms includes affirmative

48
00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:37,920
action, which permits for certain laws
or programs aimed at providing the

49
00:03:35,519 --> 00:03:42,000
situation of disadvantaged individuals
or groups.

50
00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:46,480
A community that supports accessible
transportation is a community that is

51
00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:52,159
welcoming to everyone. Reason number
two, improve safety and reduce traffic

52
00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:56,400
congestion. Golf carts are smaller,
slower, and considerably more

53
00:03:53,599 --> 00:04:01,040
maneuverable than full-size trucks. Our
businesses make numerous trips each day

54
00:03:58,879 --> 00:04:05,519
between real obsession main lodge, the
Zabalis lodge, the fuel station, and the

55
00:04:03,519 --> 00:04:09,439
docks. These routes frequently pass
through areas already occupied by

56
00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:13,519
conventional and commercial trucks such
as the one servicing Habitat's fish

57
00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:18,079
processing facility located next door to
fuel stations. This area can become

58
00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:22,720
quite congested with both businesses are
in full operation mode. By replacing

59
00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:26,240
short local trips with compact electric
golf carts, reduces congestion, requires

60
00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:30,160
less parking space, and allows
commercial traffic to move more

61
00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:34,880
efficiently and safely. Rather than
increasing safety concerns, we believe

62
00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:40,160
appropriately regulated golf cart use
can improve overall traffic flow in the

63
00:04:37,919 --> 00:04:45,199
village core.
Reason number three, environmental

64
00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:49,919
stewardship. Electric golf carts produce
zero emissions and operate quietly. Not

65
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:53,600
only do they reduce unnecessary truck
use for short distance travel and

66
00:04:51,919 --> 00:04:58,400
contributes to lower fuel consumption
bills, but they also decrease greenhouse

67
00:04:56,080 --> 00:05:03,520
gas emissions and significantly reduces
vehicle noise on our quiet streets. A

68
00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:08,240
Canadian field study reported greenhouse
gas emissions approximately 75% lower

69
00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:11,680
than comparable gasoline golf carts,
which we could assume translates to

70
00:05:09,919 --> 00:05:18,080
gasoline powered vehicles in general,
such as ATVs, cars, trucks, etc. As many

71
00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:22,639
residents know, our workday often begins
before dawn and can end after dusk.

72
00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:27,199
Electric carts would reduce engine
noise, creating a quieter environment

73
00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:32,479
for neighboring homes. With an ATV or
side by side, generating noise level of

74
00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:36,880
85 to 105 dB. An electric golf cart
generates a noise level of 50 to 60 dB.

75
00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:40,240
A difference of 10 dB is roughly
perceived as twice as loud to the human

76
00:05:38,639 --> 00:05:44,800
ear.
Reason number four, economic benefits.

77
00:05:43,039 --> 00:05:50,240
Electric golf carts are considerably
less expensive to purchase, reduces

78
00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:53,840
household fuel costs along with lower
maintenance costs than conventional

79
00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:56,960
vehicles. Allowing their use would
reduce operating costs for businesses

80
00:05:55,520 --> 00:06:01,039
while also creating an affordable
transportation option for residents,

81
00:05:58,639 --> 00:06:04,960
seniors, and lower income households who
only require short distance travel

82
00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:10,560
within the village.
Our final reason number five, tourism

83
00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:15,600
and community character. The bellis has
built its reputation as a welcoming,

84
00:06:12,639 --> 00:06:19,600
peaceful, and unique coastal community.
Our real obsession team assists guests

85
00:06:17,759 --> 00:06:23,280
with trips to the local store as well as
for a community restaurant that develops

86
00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:28,880
in. Our land-based guests, the
non-fishers, always loved town tours by

87
00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:32,160
a golf cart. Communities throughout
North America have successfully

88
00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:36,400
incorporated regulated golf cart
programs to improve mobility while

89
00:06:33,840 --> 00:06:40,479
enhancing their tourism appeal. The most
notable examples of Canadian

90
00:06:37,919 --> 00:06:44,800
municipalities permitting golf carts on
public roadways under regulated

91
00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:50,639
provincial pilot projects are Silven
Lake Alberta, Peely Island, Ontario, and

92
00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:54,000
the Village of Chase, BC, plus others.
Electric golf carts complement the

93
00:06:52,319 --> 00:06:57,520
relaxed atmosphere of our village,
making it easier for residents and

94
00:06:55,520 --> 00:07:01,680
visitors to travel and explore our local
businesses while encouraging greater

95
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:06,960
interaction among residents and guests
alike. Communities that encourage golf

96
00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:12,720
cur transportation often develop a
distinctive identity.

97
00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:17,840
Our request, we respectfully ask council
to one, consider supporting the

98
00:07:15,599 --> 00:07:23,199
regulated use of electric golf carts
within the village of Zalos. Two,

99
00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:29,039
explore the development of a local bylaw
or pilot program establishing safe

100
00:07:25,759 --> 00:07:33,199
operating standards. And three, advocate
to the Ministry of Transportation and

101
00:07:31,039 --> 00:07:37,280
Transit for regulatory options that
would allow communities such as the

102
00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:42,479
Balos to implement golf cart use legally
and safely. We are not requesting

103
00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:46,319
unrestricted access to public roadways.
Rather, we are asking that council

104
00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:50,240
explore practical, responsible solutions
that balance public safety with

105
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:53,759
accessibility, environmental
sustainability, and the needs of our

106
00:07:52,080 --> 00:07:57,199
community. We would welcome the
opportunity to meet with council to

107
00:07:55,680 --> 00:08:02,400
discuss this matter further and work
collaboratively towards a solution that

108
00:07:59,840 --> 00:08:06,879
benefits all residents. Thank you for
your time and consideration and service

109
00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:10,120
to the community.
>> Thank you.

110
00:08:15,199 --> 00:08:18,199
» Questions?

111
00:08:21,599 --> 00:08:30,080
» Yes.
Thanks for your presentation. Very well

112
00:08:26,639 --> 00:08:37,839
done. Um,
I have no problem agreeing with most of

113
00:08:33,039 --> 00:08:43,680
it. The problem I have is for us to be
able to bring the bylaw in so we can use

114
00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:49,680
them is going to take our staff a lot of
time. Yes, I could read this off for

115
00:08:47,760 --> 00:08:54,320
just a sec.
Okay, we got permit procedures,

116
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:59,519
inspection requirements, route mapping,
signage installation, enforcement

117
00:08:56,399 --> 00:09:06,240
protocols, and ongoing administration
costs.

118
00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:13,120
Plus, we can't do anything until we get
a hold of the department in Victoria.

119
00:09:10,720 --> 00:09:18,080
And I don't think we'll be able to do
that till next spring. I don't think

120
00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:22,480
there's a
instant fix here.

121
00:09:19,839 --> 00:09:27,120
» Oh, I I didn't expect that by any means.
We were able to get one of the golf

122
00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:31,200
carts registered uh for the road. But is
there

123
00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:35,760
any would would it the regulate like
keeping up on the regulations? Would it

124
00:09:32,880 --> 00:09:39,680
be the responsibility of the village or
would it be the responsibility of the

125
00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:44,959
local authorities?
>> If I may, I'm going to dump this off to

126
00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:47,519
our
because

127
00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:52,399
» about that one.
>> He knows how the requirements come and

128
00:09:51,279 --> 00:09:56,399
what to expect.
>> Yes. Okay.

129
00:09:54,320 --> 00:10:01,600
» Yes. It would uh it would have to go
through a bylaw. Um we would have to

130
00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:06,800
dedicate roadways and we would be the
ones administering the permits, you

131
00:10:03,680 --> 00:10:11,600
know, upon um proof of, you know,
meeting all of the the regulations. And

132
00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:16,880
do you think like the permit costs would
not be beneficial for making money for

133
00:10:13,839 --> 00:10:21,360
the village for with having people even
coming to

134
00:10:19,040 --> 00:10:25,360
um they'd have to have a permit right to
operate within the zone. Do you think

135
00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:30,000
that would be something that could
possibly make the village money?

136
00:10:28,640 --> 00:10:33,440
» I I would say it depends on
>> depends on the permit amount. Yeah.

137
00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:38,480
» Yeah. And and obviously council
direction like we've only just touched

138
00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:41,440
the service. I totally and like I was
looking up a lot of these pilot

139
00:10:39,920 --> 00:10:46,640
projects. They have it just for summer
months like when tourism are high and

140
00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:51,360
then it ends. Um and there's I don't
know there's green initiatives maybe you

141
00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:56,720
know just maybe reaching out there might
be some type of money for greener

142
00:10:54,800 --> 00:11:00,560
initiative taking on for the village
itself that could be funded in that

143
00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:06,000
direction.
I uh I think there's like a lot of merit

144
00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:12,480
in this and I think it's an excellent
concept for a community of this size

145
00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:16,880
without hardly any roadway at all. And
uh I mean look at Hutton shaking his

146
00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:21,279
head. We got a we got an electric golf
cart for public works now, right? And

147
00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:26,720
that was the concept behind it like
exactly what you're talking about. So,

148
00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:33,680
so, uh, I think we should do everything
we could we can to to push this forward

149
00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:39,519
and and and get it to be real, you know,
just like we did in the past with uh

150
00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:42,720
with our ATBs, right?
>> At that point, we did think there was

151
00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:51,079
going to be a trail coming through here,
which is different, but but uh

152
00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:51,079
everything about it is good. So,

153
00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:55,079
» Mayor Coburn.

154
00:11:56,640 --> 00:12:04,480
» Hello. Hello.
>> Hey, give me a sec here to connect. Um,

155
00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:09,760
uh, thank you for coming in. Thank you
for presenting to us and, um, giving a

156
00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:15,120
little bit more clarity on it and, um,
especially that accessibility piece is

157
00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:20,560
is really important, I feel. Um I also
want to commend you for getting the one

158
00:12:17,519 --> 00:12:25,200
that you have uh the golf cart that you
have insured and taking that those steps

159
00:12:23,200 --> 00:12:29,680
and initiating that. So thank you for
doing that. Um really appreciate that

160
00:12:27,839 --> 00:12:34,959
that is a first step that you could do.
Um I agree with um it not being a you

161
00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:41,040
know immediate thing or anything like
that. And I also think that we need to

162
00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:46,160
direct staff to uh connect with the RCMP
because it is a a public road. It will

163
00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:53,440
be under the motor vehicle act. So uh
that's just my two cents. I made some

164
00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:57,839
comments earlier. So I'll stop there.
>> Yes. My neighbor.

165
00:12:54,800 --> 00:13:04,639
» Yes. Go ahead. Councelor De.
>> Yes. Mr. Rod,

166
00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:10,959
I live right next to you. I see those
golf carts back forth, back forth.

167
00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:17,120
They're generally not a problem.
Sometimes they are a problem when the

168
00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:22,560
kids load five onto a cart because
that's not safe.

169
00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:27,519
That's not a big deal. I can see after
this issue here,

170
00:13:25,519 --> 00:13:32,480
there's only two people in a cart.
Everybody's being nice and safe. That's

171
00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:38,399
great. I have no issues with that. I
think it's a good idea.

172
00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:41,519
All I can say is it's going to take time
for us to do anything that works for

173
00:13:40,639 --> 00:13:44,639
you.
>> Yeah.

174
00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:53,360
» And uh they're quieter, they're better
for the environment, and uh

175
00:13:49,040 --> 00:13:56,800
504 Reno Street has no issues.
>> There shouldn't be 51. No, they're show

176
00:13:55,440 --> 00:14:00,000
I was just thinking when the heck was
there five adults.

177
00:13:57,920 --> 00:14:02,560
» Well, hey, you were a kid once, too,
weren't you?

178
00:14:00,399 --> 00:14:06,800
» No, but you're right. You're 100%.
>> They're not meant to be used unless

179
00:14:04,160 --> 00:14:10,880
anybody's working and it's they're not
for staff to use outside of work

180
00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:12,240
purposes. Yeah, like you said,
everybody.

181
00:14:11,680 --> 00:14:16,749
» Yeah. Thanks.
>> No, I just had to throw that in so I

182
00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:18,769
didn't sound too sick.
[laughter]

183
00:14:19,920 --> 00:14:23,800
» Thank you. Are we getting

184
00:14:24,240 --> 00:14:31,760
» the other behind
the pitch?

185
00:14:29,839 --> 00:14:35,120
» We do have the other two in works of
getting registered, but they're more

186
00:14:33,519 --> 00:14:38,720
difficult because they were bought from
a private golf course. So, they were

187
00:14:36,959 --> 00:14:42,639
never previously registered.
>> So, there's a bunch of loopholes and

188
00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:49,839
paperwork we're working on that we won't
get them. I doubt we'll get them up in

189
00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:53,079
the summer. Uh but we're trying.
Thank you.

190
00:14:58,639 --> 00:15:04,480
» Do we have to move her seat of that?
>> No.

191
00:15:04,079 --> 00:15:07,839
» No.
>> No. Okay. Moving on.

192
00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:12,079
» Yes. Moving on.
>> Okay.

193
00:15:10,320 --> 00:15:16,000
Dallas Volunteer Fire Department monthly
operations report.

194
00:15:13,680 --> 00:15:16,000
» No.

195
00:15:16,480 --> 00:15:19,480
Oh,

196
00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:26,440
» this is right. The send placement
project

197
00:15:46,399 --> 00:15:52,720
Do we receive the report or no? Yeah,
>> just for information only for

198
00:15:52,079 --> 00:15:57,759
discussion.
>> For discussion. Yes,

199
00:15:53,920 --> 00:16:03,160
» discussions. Okay. So there is uh
recommendations on page 7 of 29.

200
00:16:13,519 --> 00:16:22,240
So I'll go ahead and move that
addressment

201
00:16:18,959 --> 00:16:28,639
of a waterfront center concept based on
natural rock mon design oriented towards

202
00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:33,600
the inlet and to investigate a site
layout that retain that retains the

203
00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:38,240
existing juniper bush where practical
well ensuring accessibility and

204
00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:43,920
ceremonial functionality. and further
that staff uh explore opportunities to

205
00:16:41,759 --> 00:16:48,880
incorporate local and indigenous
commemorative elements to the final

206
00:16:46,639 --> 00:16:54,079
decision and that staff seek external
funding to support the existing budget

207
00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:57,079
to ensure higher funding. I second my
motion.

208
00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:05,199
» Comments.
>> Any discussion?

209
00:17:02,639 --> 00:17:07,120
» Comments. Any discussion?
>> No.

210
00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:09,600
» Discuss the question.
>> Okay, that's good.

211
00:17:08,319 --> 00:17:12,600
» All those in favor?
>> I

212
00:17:15,039 --> 00:17:24,480
the battle design survey.
Any accept that or is that just for

213
00:17:21,439 --> 00:17:32,000
information? No, it's uh again there's
recommendations this time on page 13 to

214
00:17:27,039 --> 00:17:38,559
29. What staff is looking for is uh is
after council review of the conceptual

215
00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:45,440
drawings and the uh the plan outlines
are any recommended changes um any

216
00:17:42,240 --> 00:17:54,480
recommended additions or subtractions.
um and ultimately uh approval to move to

217
00:17:49,760 --> 00:18:02,320
the next step um which would uh
um to bring forward a work plan and and

218
00:17:57,919 --> 00:18:10,000
a budget for council to consider
>> something like recommendation.

219
00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:14,720
» I would you go back up.
>> Oh Julie, sorry if I had a coin. Go

220
00:18:12,880 --> 00:18:18,160
ahead.
you see.

221
00:18:15,600 --> 00:18:23,520
» I was just wondering
if because the next step is a work plan

222
00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:29,360
and budget
if there would be any opportunity to do

223
00:18:26,880 --> 00:18:34,160
any public consultation on this. Um the
reason is is just the parking those

224
00:18:32,799 --> 00:18:37,840
kinds of things. I'd like to know how
much parking people think they need.

225
00:18:36,160 --> 00:18:45,679
Right now in one of the concept designs
we've got 13.

226
00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:51,760
Oh, I can't see it. Where is it?
>> 13. And the other one we've got 10. And

227
00:18:47,919 --> 00:18:56,480
I just don't Yeah, I made my comments on
the uh email that I sent out that should

228
00:18:54,400 --> 00:19:01,200
have been distributed. Uh I I really
think we should go to public so we

229
00:18:58,640 --> 00:19:05,039
understand what they want before I mean
if they want to park there that kind of

230
00:19:03,039 --> 00:19:09,919
defeats some of the purpose of a park or
maybe we'd have to move the park over

231
00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:15,880
towards uh 146 McQuina. I'm just
wondering how Yeah. to get some feedback

232
00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:15,880
on this.

233
00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:26,480
» Uh I'd like to move that uh staff be
directed to bring Florida work plan and

234
00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:30,480
cost associated with the proposed
upgrades as outlined in the attached

235
00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:35,440
drawings to council including budget
sources and work that can be for be

236
00:19:32,640 --> 00:19:38,440
performed in house.
Second

237
00:19:38,880 --> 00:19:41,880
» discussion.

238
00:19:43,679 --> 00:19:49,480
» Personally, I like design number one,

239
00:19:52,080 --> 00:19:59,559
but I'm also very happy we've got to
this point. This is awesome.

240
00:20:06,640 --> 00:20:13,728
any preference for you?
>> Uh just to move forward a bit.

241
00:20:11,039 --> 00:20:16,320
» Yeah. Yeah. I don't think either one
[clears throat]

242
00:20:14,320 --> 00:20:19,919
I don't think uh it'll make a big
difference.

243
00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:21,679
We can get it organized and working
properly for the community. That's where

244
00:20:21,200 --> 00:20:24,919
I'm at.
>> I agree.

245
00:20:25,679 --> 00:20:36,159
» All those in favor? Hi. Hi.
>> Can I Oh, sorry.

246
00:20:31,520 --> 00:20:39,840
I still had comments. That's okay.
>> Did I hear a comment or

247
00:20:37,360 --> 00:20:43,520
» We're going to need to give staff there.
We're going to need to give staff an

248
00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:49,159
answer whether it's one, two, or
something different so that they can

249
00:20:44,799 --> 00:20:49,159
come forward with a work plan at a bud.

250
00:20:49,760 --> 00:20:57,360
And also that was a question through to
staff is how can we reach out to the

251
00:20:53,120 --> 00:21:02,640
public to get some public uh ask or uh
public information on this

252
00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:09,360
» through the uh the chair to Mayor
Cobborn um first with council direction

253
00:21:06,400 --> 00:21:13,720
um to do so. Um, and then we could do
surveys much like we did with the

254
00:21:10,720 --> 00:21:13,720
Senate.

255
00:21:19,360 --> 00:21:29,120
» I would love to do that just so uh I'm
wondering if there is like uh need for

256
00:21:26,080 --> 00:21:36,039
children's play area like how people how
people envision it. It it'll be a public

257
00:21:31,360 --> 00:21:36,039
park. It'll be their park. So

258
00:21:36,720 --> 00:21:40,760
I can make a subsequent afterwards

259
00:21:41,760 --> 00:21:46,200
» you've got a question on the table. So

260
00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:52,799
» that's the the motion question.
>> Oh

261
00:21:49,280 --> 00:21:57,960
» yeah. Gman.
>> All in favor?

262
00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:57,960
» I

263
00:21:58,159 --> 00:22:02,679
opposed.
>> Opposed.

264
00:22:04,320 --> 00:22:13,039
» So, I'll make that motion that we go to
a public survey and discuss options for

265
00:22:09,360 --> 00:22:19,440
option one. I forget which page that is.
uh and just get some public feedback on

266
00:22:15,679 --> 00:22:24,120
uh preferences of uh children's
activities, seating places, things like

267
00:22:21,120 --> 00:22:24,120
that.

268
00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:30,840
» You second.
>> Yeah. Seconds

269
00:22:32,320 --> 00:22:37,760
in favor.
>> I'll just Sorry.

270
00:22:35,440 --> 00:22:42,720
» Uh [clears throat] I I agree with what
Mayor Coin said about uh similar survey

271
00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:47,320
to the Senate Taft. I think that was
appropriate. Thank you.

272
00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:52,840
» All those in favor?
>> I

273
00:23:03,039 --> 00:23:14,240
just speak to CAO for a sec.
Do you want some instruction on

274
00:23:11,280 --> 00:23:20,559
sending out information as per the
Senate effect for this parking or do we

275
00:23:17,360 --> 00:23:26,880
give you some direction at a later date?
Um through the the chair um is council's

276
00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:32,400
prerogative to direct staff how how you
wish. Um we can we can work with the

277
00:23:30,240 --> 00:23:37,520
information that uh that we have or if
there's further information you would

278
00:23:34,159 --> 00:23:43,280
like to provide. Um it would be uh it
would be beneficial to uh to to hone in

279
00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:46,280
that direction so that uh um we can
define.

280
00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:54,640
Okay. Thanks.
I move that we direct council

281
00:23:52,400 --> 00:24:02,880
at a later meeting
on how to advertise this and get public

282
00:23:58,080 --> 00:24:09,080
input before we go too far.
>> I'll second that. Yeah. Okay.

283
00:24:06,080 --> 00:24:09,080
» Discussion.

284
00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:18,320
All in favor? I
>> go ahead, Mayor Coburn.

285
00:24:16,159 --> 00:24:28,960
» Yeah. And I almost think that we could
do that via email if there was a want or

286
00:24:24,480 --> 00:24:32,320
a need to move forward on this. Um, you
know, some of the questions I was

287
00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:36,960
wondering is about uh need for covered
area. Does there need to be one in both

288
00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:44,400
of those areas between
146 and uh Rosa Island or or just one?

289
00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:49,279
Is there a need for any kind of small
play equipment? Uh just some super basic

290
00:24:47,440 --> 00:24:54,480
questions. We're going to do it anyways,
but if there's any specifics that people

291
00:24:51,840 --> 00:24:58,159
were thinking they would like.
So, I mean I I will I will agree with

292
00:24:56,799 --> 00:25:01,279
the motion, but it's almost something we
could do over email.

293
00:25:00,799 --> 00:25:05,960
Okay.
>> Thank you. All those in favor

294
00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:18,640
of the question period. Was that where
we're at?

295
00:25:16,799 --> 00:25:23,520
» Um did I miss something?
>> It depends if you want to further

296
00:25:20,240 --> 00:25:27,760
discuss the uh um request for the
community golf ball cart use. Um because

297
00:25:25,679 --> 00:25:33,039
we've got real objections letter.
>> Yeah.

298
00:25:28,159 --> 00:25:37,360
» And then the staff reports. Um so uh um
up to council whether you want to have

299
00:25:34,960 --> 00:25:41,440
that discussion.
It's next on the agenda.

300
00:25:39,440 --> 00:25:45,039
» I feel we
discuss what we need to

301
00:25:42,799 --> 00:25:47,760
» Yeah. Same here.
>> Okay. So do we receive the

302
00:25:46,559 --> 00:25:52,400
correspondence?
>> No need to. Okay.

303
00:25:51,200 --> 00:25:55,720
» So then it goes to public health
question period.

304
00:25:56,480 --> 00:26:05,679
» Oh yeah. I I also live opposite um a lot
of where the um activity is at the start

305
00:26:02,880 --> 00:26:11,919
house and between real obsession. I am
very very happy that there's

306
00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:16,799
um electric golf carts being used
because when it's vehicles it's like you

307
00:26:14,640 --> 00:26:21,760
know early in the morning I don't hear
anything you know if the golf carts are

308
00:26:19,039 --> 00:26:27,840
being used but if trucks are being used
you know it's it's it's noisy and

309
00:26:24,880 --> 00:26:31,919
disruptive but the golf carts are just a
blessing as far as I'm concerned and

310
00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:35,679
looking in the future when I'm getting
older maybe I'd like to go around town

311
00:26:33,760 --> 00:26:40,559
on the
It might have a little bit easier,

312
00:26:39,200 --> 00:26:43,559
» especially if you open the golf course,
right?

313
00:26:53,600 --> 00:26:59,200
» Oh, it's down now.
>> Sorry, my time has passed. I'm not

314
00:26:57,440 --> 00:27:01,679
interrupting public question period.
That was from the previous one. It's

315
00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:04,919
good.
>> My apologies.

316
00:27:04,960 --> 00:27:09,159
Anyone else for

317
00:27:10,559 --> 00:27:16,960
Walton? I live in this town and I'm I'm
kind of uh on board with the idea of

318
00:27:15,279 --> 00:27:20,559
using the golf carts. They can move
people around, not take up a lot of

319
00:27:18,559 --> 00:27:25,840
space or
parking becomes an issue at times and

320
00:27:23,039 --> 00:27:30,240
something small is kind of a blessing.
Uh, and when it comes to the center,

321
00:27:28,799 --> 00:27:34,559
they talk about having other things
around it like, you know, a cover or

322
00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:39,200
whatever.
I've been across Canada and I've seen

323
00:27:37,200 --> 00:27:45,360
lots of sun caps, but I've never seen
anything to take away the importance and

324
00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:51,159
the remembrance of having a senap. It
stands alone in my brain. Thank you.

325
00:27:56,399 --> 00:28:02,640
That's it.
>> You can kick them out. No,

326
00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:05,640
» we have a regular
call.

327
00:28:06,080 --> 00:28:10,360
» I move we adjourn now.

328
00:28:12,799 --> 00:28:17,399
» Do you need me to come back to a
different meeting?
