have to solve dispute

The dispute between a group of
concerned citizens and people
wanting to establish a moto-cross
race track came back to East
Wawanosh Council Sept. 29.
The two sides wanted council to
mediate the dispute and if possible
come up with some kind of a
decision.
However, after much discussion,
it was determined by council that it
could not really decide the issue.
The two sides would have to try
and solve the dispute themselves.
"Council can't do anything," said
Councillor Dianne Robinson. "We
can’t legislate people to get
together."
At the Sept. 7 council meeting,
the group of concerned citizens had
brought a complaint to council
about the noise from moto-cross
races held during the Labour Day
weekend.
Race organizer Tim Bitz said he
had canvassed the neighbours, and
they had no complaints about the
races being held. He noted that he
was trying to co-operate with the
neighbours in trying to solve the
issue.
At Thursday's council meeting,
Mr. Bitz said he did not even know
that Paul Chamney had a house at
the 'end of the road.'
The two sides were to meet in an
effort to solve the problem.
However, both sides attended Sept.
29's council meeting and reported
the other side was not willing to
solve the problem.
Mr. Bitz said he presented a
proposal to the concerned citizens,
but it was rejected.
"They are not interested in trying
to solve the dispute," he said.
"They rejected my offer, but they
had no counter proposal."
Spokesperson for the concerned
citizens, Paul chamney, said that all
the proposal had was a schedule for
three races next year. There was
nothing in the proposal addressing
the noise issue.
"The noise is our major concern,"
he said. "The continual noise can
be aggravating."
Mr. Chamney suggested the
Bitz's put up a noise barrier.
"What kind of noise barrier
would you suggest?" asked
Councillor Fred Meier.
The owner of the property where
the races were held, and father of
the race organizer, Martin Bitz,
said the Canadian Motorcycle
Association (CMA) would like
them to hold three races. Mr. Bitz
said they would like to hold two or
three races.
He explained that the CMA has a
30-week season, from April to
October, and we have been asked
to hold three races. He said the

to work with. They were
determined to be self-supporting at
the earliest possible moment; they
made close friendships among the
congregation and we finished each
project with a great amount of
satisfaction, not to mention under-
budget.
My wife leaches English as a

school and she has had

CMA likes to have no more than
three races at one location so that
racers can become familiar with the
course, but not more than three
races because they want the racers
to have a variation of venues.
Mr. Bitz said they would like to
let the CMA know by the
beginning of November, so the
association can set its 1995 race
schedule. The Bitz's are trying to
host three two-day events.
He noted that he found it ironic
that the four-day race event at
Walton can attract over 600 people
and receive no complaints.
"And, they are closer to a
residential area," said Mr. Bitz.
He noted that by holding the
races, they are providing some
entertainment for young people.
"If we do not provide some
wholesome entertainment for our
young people, they will find their
own entertainment," said Mr. Bitz.
He said these young people
involved in the races are serious
about their sport.
"These are clean cut kids, there is
no alcohol and drugs," he said. "If
you know anything about the sport,
racers cannot use alcohol or drugs
and still expect to compete."
Mr. Bitz said the races in Walton
are good for business in the hamlet.
It is hoped that the races in East
Wawanosh will help local
businesses. He said some of the
people at this year's races stayed at
the campground.
"Racing is part of the western
culture," said Mr. Bitz. "It is part of
community life."
Tim Bitz said they are willing to
stop riding their motorbikes on
their property on Sunday mornings,
except for race weekends.
Mr. Chamney said he felt the
council was setting a double
standard, because he had to re-zone
his property in order to build a
house, while the Bitz’s don't need to
re-zone their farm to commercial or
recreational in order to have the
moto-cross course.
Councillor Meier said council
didn't want the land re-zoned
because neighbours could object,
and that would result in an OMB
hearing.
"We can't do anything about
what a person does on his
property," he said.
Mr. Chamney wondered how re
zoning would affect the value of his
property. He said the surrounding
property should be assessed for
before and after re-zoning.
"I can't see how property values
would stay the same," he said.
East Wawanosh council did not
make a decision and was still
hoping the two sides could get
together and come up with an
agreement.
