    RE:  Item K-1--Town of Lakeshore Council Motion in support of a new regional hospital for Windsor-Essex County.

    Councillor DeYong shared information/quotes from the Ontario Health Coalition briefly summarized as follows: The existing hospital has too few beds, and the proposal has no additional capacity planned. She stated that across Ontario new megamergers are consistently built with fewer beds than projected and the Coalition is concerned that the new hospital will be smaller than the existing proposal shows.  She stated that the plan was set without analysis and is potentially removing services from the Leamington Hospital, which serves Leamington and the southern part of the County, forcing those residents to travel further to receive such services. She stated the debate is not 'where', but rather 'why' are we settling for one single site. Councillor DeYong advised that the Municipalities of Huntsville and Bracebridge declined a megamerger. Those municipalities are looking for two hospitals for two communities far smaller than our region.

    Deputy Mayor Queen advised that he supports the mega merger and suggested that Members of Council read Mr. Hilary Payne's Letter to the Editor in The Windsor Star's edition of Saturday last, setting out reasoning for support of the proposed new regional hospital.


1. Councillor Patterson indicated that he may, at the next Regular Meeting, move or cause to have moved: That Administration be directed to provide an update with respect to the status of the garbage pick-up at the Setterington Industrial Park because, while garbage has been picked up in that area for over 15 years, a decision has been made to not pick up garbage in that area; and further, that garbage pickup at the Setterington Industrial Park remain until there is a resolution going forward. 

2. Deputy Mayor Queen noted the 'Celebrate Canada Day! in Kingsville' flyer handout provides the schedule for all events to be held at the Kingsville Arena on Monday, July 1st from 11:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m.

3. Deputy Mayor Queen reminded that the Kingsville Highland Games are coming up rapidly and invited all to attend the Saturday, June 22 event.

4. Deputy Mayor Queen advised that the Outdoor Movie Night has been scheduled for July 26 and August 23 at Lakeside Park.
