The first bylaw, was to close portignspf road allowances in Bayfield and sell the land to adjoining owners. The second, was to assume certain portions of three roads for public use, A street survey was recently conducted by Drew Annibel of the law firm; Archibald, Gray and McKay. Those streets in question are; Victoria Place, Elgin Place, Charles Street, Mara Street, Tuyll Street, Hill Terrace and Colina Street. The closing would require that just a phrtion'of land be stopped up and sold and given to those owners whose property is abutting the road allowance. The property is to be sold according to the terms established by council. Peter Macaulay, solicitor in charge of drawing up,the deeds for the land, said that before council could pass a bylaw they had to send out notices advising that parts of the road allowances are to be stopped up, sold, and conveyed to the abutting owners. He said that once the notice period (four weeks) has gone by then a bylaw actually closing parts of the road allowance could be passed, "and we'll give the deed to the abutting owners," he said. "Once we're through with this process, I think it's fair to say, you're not going to notice one change," stressed Mr. Macaulay. The solicitor said that closing these portions of the road allowance does not mean that part of the road will be closed to traffic. He said that the majority of the closings are on land already assumed by abutting property owners and many assumed the land years ago. He said many portions have even been fenced. "It's just a tidying up of the title," he said, "It certainly won't intefere with vehicular' and pedestrian traffic on the street." The portions considered under Bylaw 221, under the Hill Terrace Street segment, read n es to be clarified in "Woe parts of°Hill Terrace aeeordiRng to Registered Plan No. 147 now designated at Parks 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 0 on a Reference Plan Survey ,,." Those part referred to are, according to Clerk Pat • raham, completely different from those parts mentioned in the expropriation issue on Hill Terrace. He said these parts (regarding the street survey) refer to plan 22R-1720, the expropriation parts refers to plan 22R-1515. Clerk Granham also clarified that once the land titles have been "tidied up" there will still be enough land for proper road allowances. Council notes Council received a letter from two Bayfield women complaining of a loud party early June 3 morning. The complainants wrote that they had called the OPP about the disturbance. Apparently, the police answered the call and arrived at the scene to ask that the noise cease. According to the complainants, the noise continued after the police had left. The complainants wrote asking the noise bylaw be enforced. Reeve Johnston said he had met with the OPP prior to the disturbance and they said they cannot enforce the bylaw unless the complainant goes to coil to testify against those making the noise. The reeve also said the bylaw can only be enforced by municipal police officers, provincial police officers or municipal bylaw officers. He explained that if the village was to hire a bylaw officer it would be difficult because, "that someone would have to enforce the bylaw at three or four in the morning for $3,000 or $4,000 a year." He suggested the only alternative is to inform the OPP of the disturbance. Drainage survey Clerk Pat Graham was advised to ask Burns Ross, village, engineering consultant, Bicentennial events get underway this weekend By Helen Owen Sat., June 30 should go off with a bang!
