"I'm not sure council or the staff understand the dif- ference between consentference between consentf towing and nonconsent towing. Typically most tow companies do not do pri- vate property towing. That is a very specialized ser- vice," said Gagne. "It's where most of the complaints come from and I don't believe someone who does consent towing should have to have the burden of the licence when the majority of the issues are related to nonconsent towing." Gagne said his concern is that a small tow truck helping people at the road- side will have to pay the same as those making big money through the private property towing. He called for some kind of exemption for tow truck drivers not engaged in non- consent towing. When asked by council about this possibility Barry said doing so would make the bylaw very difficult to enforce. He said there is nothing to stop a tow truck compa- ny from doing consent tow- ing one day and private property towing the next and because of this the by- law has to apply to the en- tire industry for it to work. Bronte resident John Rishworth suggested the situation be resolved by giving vehicles tickets in- stead of towing them. Barry said the plaza owners in Bronte have been approached about this option and have reject- ed it. Those present also heard from Claudio Serrao, owner of Monaghan's Sports Pub & Grill, who said some business owners have no choice, but to tow vehicles that park illegally. "I've been at Mona- ghan's for 27 years and I've experienced the problems that we've had with Sheri- dan College and Ribfest in the area. Once those cars are there they are there for several hours and that di- rectly impedes the busi- ness not only at Mona- ghan's, but the other ten- ants in the area," said Ser- rao. "We've exercised differ- ent options. Calling bylaw officers, calling the police, ticketing. It doesn't work. We've been doing it for a lot of years. This tow truck op- tion is not the best. It does create a lot of problems. Negative publicity. We just don't have another option. If this bylaw goes through and the tow truck opera- tors do not show up to re- move these cars then what option do we have?" He said during Ribfest alone 56 cars were towed from his commercial plazafrom his commercial plazaf despite huge warning signs being put in place. Serrao said the bylaw does not address the real problem behind this issue, which is a lack of available NEWS TOWN CAN'T PROHIBIT TOWING ON PRIVATE PROPERTY Continued from page 5 See - page 43 Visit us online at insidehalton.com Sofas • Chairs • Headboards • Throw Pillows 11-2345Wyecroft Road,Oakville • 905.616.3156 • info@baiers.ca 1000's of Designer fabrics to choose Since 1967 upholstery & design www.baiers.ca Call uS foran aPPoinTmenT Call us now forChristmas Delivery! art music drama dance art explore Performing and Visual Arts School STUDIO PAVAS 905-403-9435 1-2301 Royal Windsor Dr., Mississauga www.studiopavas.com info@studiopavas.com Register Now Day, Evening and Weekend Classes Beginner to Advanced • Ages 3 yrs to Adult MARCH BREAK & SUMMER CAMPS • Small Class Sizes • Camera Viewing of All Studios • Family- Focused Scheduling • Annual Musical Productions • Specialty Workshops Art, Music, Drama, Dance CORRECTION NOTICE In the circular beginning Friday, September 21, 2018, we incorrectly listed a sale price for Bernat® Blanket™, Bernat® Blanket Big™, Bernat® Blanket Pet™ & Bernat® Velvet YarnVelvet YarnV and it should not have been on sale.
