HomeMy WebLinkAboutThe Exeter Times-Advocate, 1969-12-18, Page 5SNOWMOBILE OWNERS During the past few weeks, Exeter council members and the police department have received a number of complaints regarding the operation of snowmobiles. We hope that restrictive measures will not be required to end these complaints, but failure of snowmobile owners to cooperate will force council to pass bylaws regulating the use of these machines. The operators of all snowmobiles are asked to co-operate so that they may continue to enjoy to the full the sport and at the same time protect the interests of other citizens. Please co-operate by: 1. Operating machines as quietly as possible and at such times as not to inconvenience citizens. This means the curtailment of late night operation, particularly the practice of travelling in groups. 2. Avoiding areas where sickness exists, such as in the area of South Huron Hospital and streets adjacent to nursing homes. Also park areas where small shrubs are easily damaged. 3. Respecting the rights of property owners and avoiding taking short cuts over private property. 4. Giving precedence to pedestrian traffic, remembering that snowmobiles being so low, sometimes can be difficult to see, 5. Following all highway traffic regulations and regulations contained in the Motorized Snow Vehicle Act. Copies of these Acts may be obtained from the local police department , COUNCIL, TOWN of EXETER BLUE WATER REST HOME TENDERS Sealed Tenders, for the supply of FUEL OIL, will be received by the undersigned, until 5 P.M, ON FRIDAY, JANUARY 9, 1970.
