🚤🛥️ Licensing of Watersports
Proposal by Hamilton: https://barrie.legistar.com/View.ashx?M=F&ID=13667160&GUID=CAA27031-07D1-4D29-AF32-09CCDCC6AA9F
Rescind the previous Council's decision to not allow operators to provide motorized activities on Barrie's waterfront
Direct staff to prepare a licensing protocol for the licensing of businesses operating motorized activities along the waterfront, including a limit on the vehicles permitted, fees and safety measures for their operation, and report back to General Committee
The previous Council prevented motorized activities along the waterfront in order to preserve the natural environment, as well as public safety. Considering all the discussion at Council about the Sea Cadets' safety when learning in Kempenfelt Bay, it seems quite contradictory to now introduce motorized watersports on the Bay
