from noise by-law until 3 a.m. on long weekends during sumer months to host camping
/concert events.
Item 8(a)
Mr.Timmermans provided a handout that outlined community benefits he believed
would result from visitors to his campgrounds.He suggested exemption from the noise
by-law until 3:00 a.m. on the long holiday weekends throughout the summer would
encourage more visitors to stay at his site resulting in fmancial benefit to local
businesses.
When questioned,he indicated that he had approached some neighbours and they did not
object to his proposal for exemption from the noise by-law. He indicated his willingness
to compromise by an exemption until 1:00 or 2:00 a.m.
It was noted that it was too late for Council to approve an exemption for this Labour Day
weekend as public notice must be placed in a local newspaper in advance
(b) 7:15 p.m. -Wanda Hoshal-regarding Estherville Stones and other related matters.
Mrs. Hoshal noted that volunteers had moved the markers from the Glen Erie
stabilization project to the Estherville cemetery. She suggested there are still more
markers 150' further to the north of the project site,however, it is unsafe to remove them.
She added that the pilgrims would like to have a plaque placed at the cemetery to identify
why the additional stones had not been relocated to Estherville. She agreed that the group
would prepare draft wording for consideration.
Mrs. Hoshal commented that the markers placed at the Old Eden cemetery needed to be
repositioned to face west, similar to the existing ones.
