6.1 Joel Speake – Re: Port Franks River Issues<br />
Joel Speake and Bob Vowels appeared before Council to discuss the issues <strong>of</strong> safety<br />
for residents and tourists boating down the Ausable River in Port Franks and the<br />
condition <strong>of</strong> the river mouth at the lake and how the <strong>Municipality</strong> intended to address<br />
these concerns.<br />
Possible solutions were discussed and the limited authority the <strong>Municipality</strong> has over<br />
the river as it is a navigable waterway under the jurisdiction <strong>of</strong> both the Federal and<br />
Provincial governments and their respective regulating agencies, the Department <strong>of</strong><br />
Oceans and Fishers and the Ministry <strong>of</strong> Natural Resources.<br />
It was noted that staff is preparing the report on this issue for the December 3 rd meeting,<br />
as per Council’s instructions.<br />
