I’m in full support of the proposal in ERO 019-8289 to extend the cottage leases in Rondeau Park through 2038. Since the park’s inception in 1894, the cottage community has been an integral part of its purpose and appeal. The cottages aren’t just dwellings; they represent a long-standing tradition and connection to the park’s history.

For this proposal to truly work, though, I feel that any new leases must come with fair terms that don’t create financial burdens for the cottagers. It’s only fair that the Rondeau Cottagers Association has a voice in shaping these terms, so they can represent the needs of the community.

Finally, it’s been almost five years since ERO 011-1300 promised a proposal for long-term cottage tenure, and the community has been waiting patiently. I believe it’s time to revisit this discussion to give the community the long-term security it deserves.
