HISTORY: | The Port Franks Beach was purchased in 1977 by the Port Franks Beach Homeowners' Association Inc., a non-profit organization formed by local homeowners to protect the beach from commercial development. The deed was duly registered at the land registry office in Sarnia #422917 on October 17,1977. The terms of the deed specify: ..."shall not restrict any owner or occupier of lands from having the use of the beach or walking access over said lands." The Hollo study commissioned by the township of Bosanquet in 1987, concluded "Realistically, the beach at the mouth of Mud Creek cannot accommodate larger numbers of visitors. Moreover, the land area cannot accommodate the number of visitors a regional beach would require." |
