From Public Works Committee, January 30th, 1981 concerning use cf the
City's Welcher Avenue garbage dump during the current strike.

Prior to consideration of this matter by the Council, several members of

the audience, including Mr. George Allen, 2477 Welcher Avenue and Mrs. Sharon

Evans, 2436 Welcher Avenue were invited to address the Council and the Council
was urged to close this temporary dump forthwith. Mr. Allen suggested that
large garbage containers be placed on private property in the City for the
garbage and that they be changed when full. Mr. Keith Ballantyne also addressed
the Council and advised that when he attended at the dump the gate had been
deliberately blocked, that there was, in his opinion, excessive picketing, and
he presented a handfull of nails to the Council that he said had been taken
from the access road. Mr. Ron Talbot, a resident of Welcher Avenue, stated
that the residents, by reason of the use of the dump site were not receiving
the quiet enjoyment of their property to which they were entitled.

Alderman Keryluk advised that following the Public Works Committee meeting
that gave rise to the report presented this evening to Council a second Public
Works Committee meeting had been held and as a result of that meeting it was
the recommendation of the Committee that the Welcher Avenue Dump be closed

forthwith.
