Hello;
I support the proposal in ERO 019-8289 to amend the Rondeau Park Management Plan to allow cottages to remain in Rondeau Park until at least 2038. The original 1894 Park charter describes the cottage community as one of the two reasons the Park was created and the Heritage Cottage Community has been integral to the park since its very inception.

New leases or extensions as part of this initiative must have reasonable terms and conditions and not be driven to achieve eviction by punitive economic terms. New lease agreements must be developed in consultation with the Rondeau Cottagers Association.

The decision for ERO 011-1300 posted on December 20, 2019 stated that “Our final policy decision respecting this proposal will allow us to consult on a proposal for a new option for the long-term occupation of cottage lots. We expect to post a new proposal on the Environmental Registry of Ontario early in 2020”. The cottage community is anxiously awaiting this outstanding proposal and to have discussions to develop the long term cottage tenure solution.
