Bressette said there is a lot of tourism dollar's not coaling this way and they wont to work in collaboration with the partners. "We have to do something to hying tourism hack," he told Lambton Shores council. In 1998 Judge Gordan Killeen ruled the property owner's at West Ipper- wash owned their 32- hectare beach- front property but they would have to work with the Kettle -Stony Point band to come up with usage solutions. 111 the power point at last week's meeting, in the name of infrastructure wants gatehouses at all the entrances and possible permanent washroom facilities in the future. 'they are asking for porta-johns for this season. They would like to see two gate employees provided for each of the two shifts and nr►intenlmce crews. The power point indicated the staffed gatehouses would make it easier to manage the long lines waiting to enter the peach. Boat launch was another issue discussed and the power point stated that traditionally tractor's are used to pull boats to the beach. "Beach goers are launching boats all along the shoreline, this can be very dangerous to the swimmers." it is being suggested that a specific area to allow boaters to launch their boat will prevent injuries as well as pollu- tion. They are also suggesting buoys around the area of swimmers "so the boats and jet skis can only conte in so far." "I low do we get to yes?" asked Russell saying maybe something- like phase one of their plans could be done immediately with an agreement with the Ipperwash residents. An issue at tht' top of Lambton Shore's list of concerns is liability. Mayor Bill Weber said this council has not discussed the issues or concerns and wants to make sure there is some- thing workable. Deputy mayor Eliza- beth Davis-Dagg asked if the people at West Ipperwash beach were 100% on board. Bressette said "yes" and I)avis- Dagg said they, Lambton Shores, want assurance of this and in that respect wants the West Ipperwash people trade aware of any plans going for- ward. It was suggested 0 committee be set up and maybe the changes could be done in phases with signage and garbage receptacles being the first steps. Councilor boric Scott said she gets Many complaints about speed limits and vehicular traffic. Bressette said it is not fair that people in wheel- chairs and parents with buggies are unable to access the beach and he wants to see a more assessable route. Bressette talked about the Issues of the 1928-29 surrender's of beach property and Lambton Shores councilor Martin Underwood said this may he an oppor- tunity to break cycles "instead of going down the same path." "This is 2013," he said and then asked about the gatehouse and how Lambton Shores fit into those plans. Russell said the province is biggest partner and asked where they fit in. "Ilave they come to the table with money?" he asked. Bressette said no, they (MNiH) have not responded and neither have Aboriginal Affairs. "We have said show us the money, and they have not responded;' he said. Kettle -Stony Point 's primary con- cern is the negative environmental impacts of the cars on the beach. 'There is no intention of charging area resi- dents, only out-of-town visitors. 'this is where the partners do not agree. Some say it will have a negative effect with economic dollars leaving and there will be confusion as some shell out an entrance fee while others won't have to. Lambton Shores councilor Do, Cook asked it' this was revenue she LL We have said show us the money, and they have not responded —• (:hie f 7'm Wessell(' and Bressette said the debt would he shared but there would be no revenue coaling hack. In September 1999 this beach asso- ciation received a letter from Indian Affairs Minister Robert Nau11 stating that he could not see any reason why they should not approach the munici pality to close the west beach to vehic' alar traffic as the 'Town had done for the centre and east beaches every year between May and 'Thanksgiving. Due to all the traffic problems and lack of washrooms, garbage pick up, no horn's of use of the beach and no speed lim- its, the residents just could not tolerate the disruptive environment. They asked many times to have the beach open only to pedestrian traffic, but because of the land claim the town would not do this. WIHOA spoke to the town council and asked then' approve their request. It was accep, and referred to the 1pperwash Beaches Committee and the Public Works Committee. Everything was in place to be done in Sept. 2000. At the last minute the Works Committee asked for a legal opinion from the 'T'own's lawyer of the day David Nash. Nash at first suggested the ends of the roads going onto the beach could be declared as parkland since the Thwn owns this and signs put up that vehicles are not permitted. ile then wrote another let ter stating that 'No' the 'Town was not to close the beach to vehicular traffic. Ipperwash beach is trade tip of three plain access points - off West Ipper- wash Road, Ipperwash Road and Army Camp Road, Ipperwash. Lambton Shores agreed there was not enough information to make any decisions and they will bring this hack to council August 1st.
