| REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING COGECO CHANNEL 10 WEDNESDAY, 11:00 A.M. August 20, 2008 |
| Tim Horton's Update: On Tuesday, August 19, an article about the problem appeared in the Niagara Falls Review. You can access the article by clicking HERE. On Monday night, after we attended the Fort Erie Regular Council Meeting, several of us met at Tim Horton's in Crescent Park to discuss the meeting. No need for "No Loitering" signs there. All was quiet - as it should be. It was while we were there that we observed several emergency vehicles rushing west on Garrison. An hour or so later, sometime after 9:00 p.m., we made our way back towards Ridgeway and encountered a roadblock near Stonemill Road. We had to detour through Ridgemount Road over to Bertie and up Teal Road to get back on Highway 3. We could see the lights of the emergency vehicles as we turned onto the highway. We then decided to check out Tim Horton's in the Beach. There were cars in the parking lot, but no one inside. A group of young people was standing near a parked car. There were three vehicles parked in the Avondale lot facing Roxsborough. They were tailgating. There is a No Loitering sign in that lot as well. The good news is that it's a lot quieter at Tim Horton's in the Beach now - and the bus shelter is empty. The bad news is that it is still scary to go into Tim Horton's in the evening - in the Beach. If this situation had been dealt with properly in the very beginning, we would not have angry neighbours today. A friend tells me that Tim Horton's shops in Toronto have a limit as to how long someone can sit at a table and it is strictly enforced. |
