Confederation Park No Paid Parking Petition

Whereas the impact of paid parking along Van Wagners Road and within Confederation Park will cause parking pressures on the adjacent residential community, and

Whereas all of the City of Hamilton's parks and open space areas should be made accessible and available to its citizens, at no cost

Therefore be it resolved that the Hamilton Conservation Authority be petitioned to abandon its plans to implement a paid parking system for all park users as part of the operation and management of Confederation Park.

 

Dynes Tavern Demolition

I have received a couple of inquiries regarding the former Dynes Tavern matter, where the former owner was charged with demolishing the structure at 337 Beach Boulevard without a permit.  Please be advised that the owner plead guilty in court to two Ontario Building Code violations and was fined $20,000 for his actions. 
 

Removal of Hydro Towers

On occasion I receive calls and emails from Beach Community residents and trail users regarding the hydro towers along the shoreline of Lake Ontario.  I recently inquired with Hydro One, who own and operate the towers, as to what plans future plans they might have to remove and relocate their infrastructure.  A Hydro One representative advises that there are no plans to relocate or bury the 50 plus towers.  The lines can not be buried on the beach as the ground under the dune currently accommodates a gas pipeline.  The relocation of the lines would require a new 'right of way' (access to an alternate location) in the vicinity, and a full environmental assessment.  The cost to dispose of the old structures and all associated equipment, wire and materials, including restoration could easily exceed $70,000,000.
