recommended a watered down version of a bylaw to control swimming areas In response to complaints from campground owners with swimming areas that as small operators they could not afford full time lifeguards the demand for lifeguards was dropped from bylaw Another clause stating where life guards are used they must wear dis linetive clothing so they would be easily seen and making the minimum age IB as also dropped when Councillor George argued it un necessary if lifeguards are not man dntory Barber of Nor Park Acton agreed the clause should come out since a lawyer might contend the demand for lifeguards was implied by setting out clothing and age Barber also asked hat the police not be named one of the enforcing agencies He said ho did not want the police in unless they had a specific rea son I don feel we should be was ling tax dollars by having police come around We are not in a police state William owner of Park said he did not object to the police coming In his park Councillor John McDonald maintains It is Important the police enforce the bylaw must be reeled by the swimming areas slating which areas are safe whicl are dangerous the location of llfcsaving equipment location of emergency telephones and rules governing he swimming areas Equipment to be provided includes a reaching pole not less than eight feet long a ring buoy and line a In datable buoyant aid and a spine board The Waterfalls Park owner polnled out it was difficult fur him to mark swimming areas with colored float lines as demanded the bylaw said he had never made tl quarry a swimming area people themselves did It said he cleaned up he and put up signs telling people they swam at their own risk He cm phaslzed he docs not charge for swimming but for entrance to the picnic grounds Councillor Dave Whiting termed the discussion an exerc in futility claiming the bylaw does nothing He pointed out the accident vhich sparked the bylaw did not happen in the quarry but in the small pond He argued
