CITY CLERK'S REPORT TO COUNCIL ON CORRESPONDENCE ITEMS

It was Moved by Councillor Higginbotham Seconded by Councillor Huot That the following correspondence Item 1 be received, the actions be approved and the appropriate personor agency be informed.

RES.96-2636 Carried

1. Letter, dated August 16, 1996, from Ruth Renwick, expressing concern with the noise emanating fromthe ice cream trucks that drive through their Newton suburb of cul-de-sacs off 125 Street every hour on thehour and suggesting that Council allow bidding and have only one company, or eliminate the loud music fromthe ice cream trucks. File: 0024-001; 2152-07750

COMMENT/ACTION: This letter was referred to By-law Enforcement who advises this type of business inthe City of Surrey is categorized as a Mobile Vendor and licensed pursuant to the Business License By-law No.4747.

By-law Enforcement further advises that the general regulations of the Noise By-law No. 7044 regulatenoise in the City. However, the regulation is very broad and subjective in its application, making it verydifficult to gather evidence and proceed with a charge. For this reason, among others, the Noise By-law iscurrently being reviewed by the City Solicitor and amendments will be forthcoming shortly. Amendments inthis case will tend to regulate noise while at the same time not prohibiting outright the operation of thiscategory of business.

The suggestion of Council establishing a bidding process to allow only one company to operate in the Citywould be too restrictive and would more likely be successfully challenged in court.
