It was very disappointing to hear the update from Assistant Director Alex Patterson about the Wawa Beach House at Dr. Rose’s. For several years the beachhouse has been closed. Despite the lack of washroom facilities, Dr. Rose’s Beach continues to be the most popular beach in Wawa.
The beachhouse is structurally unsound; this is a block building, and the concrete pad that is the foundation has shifted in the sand. “Talking with Paul Parisee, Chief Building Official, he’s looked at it with myself; and we have both come to the agreement that it is not a safe place for folks to be.” said Alex. It had been looked at during the 2015 Budget, and will be looked at again this year; in order to replace the building.
