I have been getting a few emails concerning this year's Garage Sale, after much discussion, we have decided that it would be irresponsible to let the event be held this year considering the on going pandemic.
We have contacted the City and received this message from Councillor Collins;
I’ll get official confirmation re the status of garage sales across the city. I was also planning to rent two mobile signs to install at each end of the Beach (similar to what I do for community clean ups) advertising something to the effect of: 2020 ANNUAL BEACH GARAGE SALE CANCELLED
I’ll also inquire with our bylaw staff about special weekend enforcement. I have a motion going to council this week seeking funds for two bylaw staff (students) to enforce trail activity (5 days a week, including weekends). They’ll have the ability to write tickets and issue trespass notices if need be. If my motion passes we could use these students for garage sale day. They’ll be on bikes.
As soon as I get more information I’ll pass along to you.
