ROCKLAND HELP CENTRE RECEIVES $4900 FROM WAL-MART
Rockland Wal-Mart staff were on hand, July 25, in order to celebrate a $4900 donation to the Centre d’Aide de Rockland Help Centre. “It’s a program we have with our head office,” said Gord Maclean, manager of the store. “We therefore gave a matching amount of $2000.” Several members of the Help Centre were all smiles during the celebration. “It will help us a lot,” said the president, André Perras. “We get a lot of non-perishables during the Christmas season, but a lot of it runs out by March.” In addition to the amount given, the Rockland Wal-Mart also donates several non-perishable food items throughout the year. “We give things that are damaged but still safe,” said Maclean. “For example, we would give a box of cereal that is dented. We can’t sell it, but they sure can use it.” According to Perras, the Help Centre spends about $100,000 a year on perishable foods and helps on average 265 families a year. —photo Francis Racine VALIDE SEULEMENT CHEZ 2736 rue Chamberland Rockland, ON K4K 0B2. 15 % Coupon Rabais Discount Coupon 226207 Ne peut être combiné à aucun autre rabais promotionnel.

Downtown Narrow Street Analysis (Phase 1)
Étude des rues étroites au centre-ville (Phase 1)
Notice of study commencement / Avis de début d’étude
The City of Clarence-Rockland has identified the potential need to convert several local streets within the Downtown core to one-way operation following a directive from City Council. The directive was initiated by public safety concerns submitted to the City regarding the narrowwidths available along Gareau Street, Powers Street, and Victoria Street, some of which are currently below 4 metres and only allow a vehicle to travel in one direction at a time. The assessment is to include an analysis on the feasibility of the conversion to one- way operation, and recommendations on the optimal direction of travel taking into consideration the local area circulation and access to impact affected properties. Throughout this process multiple modes of transportation including, driving, transit, cycling, and walking will be reviewed for opportunities to improve mobility within the city and provide choice to residents. This study is anticipated to end by the middle of August 2019. Your input is important to the success of our study!

La Cité de Clarence-Rockland a identifié le besoin potentiel de convertir plusieurs rues locales du centre-ville en voie à sens unique, à la suite à une directive du conseil municipal. La directive a été créée à la suite de préoccupations de sécurité publique soumises à la Cité concernant les faibles largeurs disponibles le long des rues Gareau, Powers et Victoria, dont certaines font actuellement moins de 4 mètres et ne permettent à un véhicule de se déplacer que dans une direction à la fois. L’évaluation doit inclure une analyse de la faisabilité de la conversion en une opération à sens unique, ainsi que des recommandations sur la direction optimale du déplacement, en tenant comptede la circulation locale et de l’accès aux propriétés affectées. Tout au long de ce processus, de nombreux modes de transport, notamment la conduite, les transports en commun, le vélo et la marche, seront examinés pour améliorer la mobilité dans la ville et offrir un choix aux résidents. Cette étude devrait se terminer à la mi-aout 2019. Votrecontributionest importantepour le succèsdenotreétude!
