ITEM II - Continued

We have now received a firm quotation from Honeywell
for the amount of $1,657.00 to provide a sewer alarm panel and
to connect it to existing sensing equipment in the pumping
stations. The quotation does not include any unforeseen costs

-resulting from problems with our own equipment. The large
difference in cost between the system proposed by Honeywell
and the system which had been designed by Dayton & Knight
results from the need to change the sensing equipment in each
pumping station under Dayton & Knight's proposal. ,

Use of the cheaper system as proposed by Honeywell
will allow us to stay close to the budget of $3,000.00 after
paying off Dayton & Knight's design fees. We therefore
recommend the purchase of this cheaper system which will be
sufficient fo- our needs.

ITEM IIL

Re: . Request by Delegation for Cul-de-sacing
of Patricia Avenue

The Public Works Cmmmittee considered the request of
the delegation from the Westwood Parx Area to have Patricia .-
Avenue stopped at Graham Street in order to prevent the cir-
culation of traffic from Scott and Graham through Patricia.

The Commitiee considered the fact that cul-de-sacs
often create greater policing problems than through streets. Also
it is desirable to have alternate access through an area. The
Committee does not recommend the cul-de-sacing of Patricia

Avenue.

The delegation had also mentioned the need for emergency
access to the river and the restriction of this area to four-wheel
drive vehicles and motorcycles. It is not practical to restrict
the area to motorcycles. However, part of the improvements which
had been proposed included the installation of barrier posts
similar to those which are around the Reeve Tennis Courts. These
would be placed around the whole frontage of the tennis courts
and entrance to the park with two removable posts left at the
paved entrance to the park to be used by emergency vehicles. The
concrete barrier across the path to the river could then be removed
and the river would become accessible to emergency vehicles. Tt
is still our intention to go ahead with this work when the question
of what remaining work is to be done can be resolved by the Leisure

Activities Committee.
