”CICA wants to act responsibly, but there are beach front owners who may act on their own.” was the message from Centre Ipperwash Community Association (CICA) at Lambton Shore’s regular council meeting Tuesday.
Eugene Dorey, chair of CICA sat down with members stating this association is relieved the municipality has been in consultation with their lawyers about the safety of this beach regarding the barriers that had been removed in December by Kettle Stony Point chief Tom Bressette. But, he said, “talk is not action and they want action- before the summer season.”
