BoardEnvironment, Transportation and Public Safety Standing Committee Meeting Minutes
The committee reviewed and received minutes from previous meetings of the Essex-Windsor Solid Waste Authority, the Windsor Licensing Commission, and the Active Transportation Expert Panel. A primary administrative item involved the repeal of a by-law regarding the appointment of fence viewers and the passage of an amended by-law to exempt the city from the Line Fences Act and establish new dispute resolution guidelines for boundary fences, effectively shifting property line disputes to a civil matter for residents. Additionally, the committee received an update on the progress of the Vision Zero initiative, noting that staff are currently updating the road safety plan.
