Councillor Dennis Foley requesting council rescind Mystery Lake Rd. pedestrian crosswalk plan

The City might not be going forward with a plan to address the pedestrian crosswalk on Mystery Lake Road after all.

 

The plan, which would redirect pedestrians crossing Mystery Lake Road to Selkirk Avenue instead of Nelson Road, was approved by council January 4th. But Councillor Dennis Foley, who was not present at that meeting, has brought forward a motion to rescind the resolution.

 

In his written notice to council Foley writes that he would like the resolution rescinded, or in other words cancelled, because he believes it still poses a safety issue.

 

The Municipal act allows a council to reconsider or reverse a decision within one year after it is made if a member gives written notice to council of a proposal to review and reverse the decision.

 

A resolution to rescind the Jan. 4th resolution will be brought forward during the next meeting of council.
