Expansion of ATV use on K&P trail.
At the April meeting, Marc Moeys of the Verona ATV Club asked council to consider expanding the motorised use of the K&P trail to the south, from the Verona trailhead where it starts now to the Harrowsmith Trailhead.
A notice of motion to that effect came forward to the May meeting, with a staff recommendation that the motion be referred to the Planning and Economic Development Committee.
“The committee should hear from both sides,” said Ron Vandewal about the matter. “We heard the pro side from Marc Moeys, but the committee should provide an opportunity for comment by the other side as well.”
“We only expected the committee to look at developing a process for public comment and for how Council should proceed to deal with this. We did not see them making a recommendation about whether it should be adopted” said Richard Allen, Manager for Economic Development.”
Council did not see it that way, however, and it appears that the Advisory Committee, will be tasked with seeking public opinion on the proposal. ■
