Would you please have the attached communication dated September 16, 1998, from the Roseland Ratepayers and Residents' Association, placed on the agenda for consideration at the next meeting of the York Community Council scheduled on October 14, 1998.

I have requested both K. Dickin and C. Ng to report on the feasibility of installing such a barrier and have asked that their reports be forwarded to the same meeting.

J. Brosky, President, Roselands Ratepayers & Residents Association

(September 16, 1998)

At our executive meeting on September 15, our Vice-President, Jack Lund moved a motion to erect a barrier at the Scarlett Road entrance to Smythe Park.

The motion was seconded by Carmen Conley and was passed unanimously. During the "question for discussion", it was established young adults were drinking, smoking, racing, breaking beer bottles and phantom dumping in Smythe Park at night.

It is requested that this barrier be locked at 10:00 p.m. and opened at 7:00 a.m.

We would appreciate your assistance in this matter.
