Witless Bay council is looking to curb problems around town by launching a new project, the Peaceful Community Enjoyment Initiative. Witless Bay council looks to curb community troubles
“The council asked myself and the CAO to prepare terms of reference, and we’ve also prepared a discussion paper of potential implications and considerations,” said councillor Colleen Hanrahan during the February 9 meeting of council.
Some of the problems council hopes to tackle include irresponsible ATV use, excessive speeding, littering, and vandalism.
Hanrahan explained the plan is to hold a meeting this month to discuss the scope of the project and what can be done to address the issues, and that a full report will likely be presented at the next council meeting.
Discussions were originally slated to have taken place at the February 9 meeting, but were deferred until that additional, private meeting takes place.
