WHEREAS the Region’s protocol does not permit third party infrastructure such as radiocommunications equipment on Regional building structures as well as those owned by Halton Community Housing Corporation; and

 

WHEREAS on an exception basis under the Region’s protocol, radiocommunications equipment will be considered on Regional-owned and Halton Community Housing Corporation facilities when required to support municipal operations or emergency services such as Paramedic, Police and Fire Services;

THAT the Region of Halton be requested to amend its protocol to allow radiocommunications equipment to be sited on Regional-owned facilities (other than such facilities used by Halton Community Housing Corporation), not just to support municipal operations or emergency services such as Paramedic, Police and Fire Services, but also when requested by the local municipality; and
