Spur Line Trail almost complete despite bumps in the path
Quote:There is one unresolved issue with the project that won't be dealt with until the new year, Coun. Tom Galloway said.
The region intends to run the trail through property it owns that the Len's Mill Store on Moore Avenue is currently using for customer parking.
"Basically they were told that this is a problem that they have to resolve because we intend to make the trial go right through that property," Galloway said. "Being sympathetic to their needs we gave them some additional time."
Len's Mill Store representatives told council in August they will lose about 40 parking spaces, which is 80 per cent of its parking supply.
A temporary agreement was made between the region and the store to divert the trial to Waterloo Street until a solution was found.
He said a progress report is expected to be before council in January.
