Deputy Mayor Bailey - Temporary Speed Bumps on Caille Avenue

• Recommendation:

  Whereas the Lakeview Park West Beach is a notably growing Lakeshore attraction;

  And Whereas pilot projects allow an initial small-scale implementation in an attempt to prove the longer term viability; 

  Therefore, be it resolved that the Council of the Municipality of Lakeshore direct that temporary speed bumps be installed on Caille Avenue each year, beginning in 2022 from Spring to Fall to serve as a pilot until a longer term solution is presented.
