GUEST COLUMN: West Orillia is not right place for the new hospital
OrilliaMatters 14Brown field location (127 West st) requires 90 ft piles for foundation .Very expensiveColum complains of roads,Guess what the bridge at Old Barrie rd is sladed for replacement and the road made 5 lanes to past University.Has been in the works before Costco.Maybe the 30 year bypass will finally get done.The Value Village site was once the intended loction MANY years back so this idea is nothing new.Do your home work before you write. There is no land on this side of the highway big enough for present and future hospital

COLUMN: Feeling the slow burn of a speeding ticket due to cameras
OrilliaMatters 12Since the City gave up it's own policing ,speed enforcement does not existI have a better chance of a politicain keeping a promise then getting a ticket for speeding in Orillia.The average speed on the roads is WELL above the posted speed.To have radar enforcement is an extra cost for policing in Orillia and I can't remeber the last time I say Radar enforcement in Orillia
