Well, I belive the idea is to reduce traffic from the beach past (and into)
Place Vanier residence.  This is a real problem -- I stayed there one
summer and the doors were kept locked at all times to stop non-residents
from coming in and using the showers and bathrooms.  So while a fence
may not be the best solution, it is not a frivolous problem.  I'll
grant you that $300,000 is too much to spend on the and the
construction pace on the fence is glacially slow.
