(To be heard following Item 7 A)) LATE REQUEST FOR ITEM TO BE PULLED CIC MINUTES THAT given the Closed Session Update upon New Developments related to the Hub Lands Item 13 of the Council-In-Committee be pulled in advance to allow for further discussion if required. September 21, 2020 Norfolk County Council Norfolk County 50 Colborne Street South Simcoe, ON N3Y 4H3 Talbot Gardens Arena is Needed - Now Dear Norfolk County Council; The Norfolk Minor Hockey Association (“NMHA”) has reviewed Norfolk County staff report number CES 20-15, included in the agenda for Norfolk Council’s September 22, 2020 Council Meeting. The NMHA fully supports Norfolk County staff’s recommendation to approve Adult Users to be able to return to play and to hire the necessary arena staff to open Talbot Gardens. Of concern to NMHA is that the staff report mentions that it is “assumes” Talbot Gardens will be needed to handle adult league ice requests. In fact, Talbot Gardens is urgently needed to satisfy the ice requirements of many users – predominately our minor hockey groups, BEFORE one even considers adult league needs. Since the opening of minor hockey programming (Sept 8), the minor hockey divisions of Norfolk, Port Dover, Simcoe and Waterford have been FULLY utilizing the three (3) arenas that have been opened for use. Our user groups have been very active in implementing the required COVID operating protocols demanded of use, and operations within our Fall 2020 Program are running smoothly. We have however delayed the opening of our Beginner program (ages 3 and 4) and have delayed the offering of our player and goalie development programs due to lack of ice. In anticipation of opening the Langton arena (limited times available for NMHA) and the Talbot Gardens arena, these programs will now open for registration this week (as of Sept 21). This registration is being launched in anticipation of additional ice availability to our minor hockey organizations for the start of October (first full week in October). C3 We are deeply concerned that even with the opening of these additional arenas, there will still be insufficient ice to meet everyone’s needs. The first of week October will bring forward many new or expanded programs and demands for use of our arenas, including: 1) Delhi Minor Hockey Association commences its minor hockey program 2) Langton Minor Hockey commences its minor hockey program 3) Waterford Figure Skating commences its figure skating program 4) Norfolk Hericanes commences its girls hockey program 5) Delhi Figure Skating commences its figure skating program 6) Norfolk, Port Dover, Simcoe and Waterford Minor Hockey commences their player/goalie development program(s) 7) Simcoe and Waterford Minor Hockey commence their Beginner hockey programs The above programs will provide a heavy demand for the use of our arenas. At the same time we fully expect that our Adult Hockey Leagues will bring forward requests for hockey themselves (thus the demand for the report before you). Simply considering the needs of NMHA and Norfolk Hericanes, as at the beginning of October, we (collectively) will seek to secure approximately 30 hours of ice programming within Talbot Gardens. This represents nearly 60% of the ice available within the Talbot arena. The remaining ice will provide some availability to our Adult Leagues, however it may be insufficient. Needless to say, we are of the opinion that without Talbot Gardens open by the first week of October to address minor hockey needs, we will be dreadfully short of the ice required to deliver our programming commitment to our members. We therefore ask that Norfolk County open Talbot Gardens by no later than the first full week of October, and that staff continue to monitor and advise Council of the demands on our facilities, and any shortfalls in addressing those needs, so that Council can take prompt action or advise the community proactively on its inability to satisfy our needs. Sincerely, Norfolk Minor Hockey Association C4 August 17, 2020 Norfolk County Council The Corporation of Norfolk County 50 Colborne Street South Simcoe ON N3Y 4H3 Re: File No. ZNPL2020092 and PD 20-41 Dear Norfolk County Council, RMM Simcoe Property Inc, a Smartcentres company, is the owner of the lands municipally known as 154, 160, 164 Queensway East in Simcoe. As you may be aware, the site contains a Walmart, LCBO and other retail establishments. The shopping centre was developed with a storm water management (SWM) facility to serve the site and sized to accommodate flow from the neigbouring subdivision. As required at the time, an easement for that connection to the facility is currently in place. We are concerned that water entering that facility from outside our property will not control for quality, but the liability for water contamination will still reside with us. Because of this, and should Council approve application ZNPL2020092, we ask that a Holding (H) provision be imposed to until a satisfactory resolution of water quality entering the facility be found. We thank you for the opportunity to comment on this matter. Should you require further information, please do not hesitate to contact us at any time. Regards, Joseph J. Cimer Director, Development c.c.: Christine Cote, VP Development, Smartcentres Mohammad Alam, Senior Planner Norfolk County C5 September 22, 2020 Norfolk County Planning Department Development and Cultural Services Division 185 Robinson Street – Suite 200 Simcoe, Ontario N3Y 5L6 Attention: Mohammad Alam, Senior Planner Dear Mohammad; Reference: Ireland Heights Phs 2 – Response to Smart Centers Letter Roll # 40100500101 Our Project 19-092 Thank you for providing us with the letter from Smart Centres regarding their concerns with stormwater quality. We also thank you for taking the time to meet today to discuss this issue further. In response to that letter, we provide you and Paula Boutis with 2 key documents which the County has record of: 1. The Stormwater Management Report that supported the site plan approval for the Wal-Mart site. 2. The Easement Agreement between Wal-Mart and the subdivision lands. WALMART STORMWATER MANAGEMENT REPORT As we discussed, stormwater has previously been addressed back in 2006 and illustrated in the stormwater management report prepared by Counterpoint Engineering Inc. (report attached via email). Key points from that report are: 1. The Wal-Mart pond provides QUALITY CONTROL for the design area, including Ireland Heights Phase 2. 2. Ireland Height Phase 2 is included in the design area for the Wal-Mart Pond. 3. The Wal-Mart pond is a “quality control pond.” It is clear that the Wal-Mart (Smart Centres) pond development was approved by Norfolk and LPRCA on the basis that the Wal-Mart pond is to provide quality control for the subdivision. 2 Talbot Street North, Simcoe, ON N3Y 3W4 Phone: 519 426-6270 Fax: 519 426-6277 www.gdvallee.ca G . Douglas Vallee Limited Response to Smart Centres Letter for Quality Control Our Project 19-092 Page 2 EASEMENT AGEEMENT In 2010 Norfolk County approved a perpetual easement in this regard. In 2011, an easement agreement was registered creating an easement on the Wal-Mart land to permit a storm sewer to be constructed on the Wal-Mart land to provide drainage for Ireland Heights Phase 2. This creates the legal right for Ireland Heights to drain its storm water to the Wal-Mart pond. The agreement does not specify any requirement for stormwater quality control prior to storm water being discharged to the Wal-Mart pond. ZONING APPROVAL The technical aspects of storm water management and quality control have been addressed through the design of the storm water pond on the Wal-Mart site. In any event, these technical aspects are not matters to be considered during a zoning amendment. These matters will be addressed through Norfolk County’s review and approval of detailed storm water designs for Ireland Heights. SUMMARY It is unclear why the letter was sent by Smart Centres, unless the writer was not aware of the quality control provisions of the stormwater management report prepared for Wal-Mart Canada Corp. back in 2006 and subsequent site plan approval. In this case, we see the writer having the intent to ensure protection of their own interests. It is also critical to note that approval of Ireland Heights Phs 2 and the future development of Judd Drive must not be subject to 3rd party participation or approval. It is suggested that Norfolk County be satisfied with clearing conditions of draft plan approval through normal practices and procedures. The holding provision cannot be removed until such time that the County agrees to clear all draft plan conditions prior to development occurring and there is no need to impose additional conditions to remove the holding provision. As always, please feel free to contact us with any questions or comments that you may have. Yours truly, Eldon Darbyson Eldon Darbyson, Director of Planning G.

    DOCUMENT RESUME ED 405 472 CE 073 669 AUTHOR Long, Ellen TITLE The Impact of ABC Canada's LEARN Campaign. Results of a National Research Study. INSTITUTION ABC Canada, Toronto (Ontario). SPONS AGENCY National Literacy Secretariat, Ottawa (Ontario). PUB DATE Jul 96 NOTE 99p. PUB TYPE Reports Research/Technical (143) EDRS PRICE MF01/PC04 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS Adult Basic Education; *Adult Literacy; Adult Programs; *Advertising; Foreign Countries; High School Equivalency Programs; *Literacy Education; Marketing; *Program Effectiveness; *Publicity IDENTIFIERS *Canada; *Literacy Campaigns ABSTRACT An impact study was conducted of ABC CANADA's LEARN campaign, a national media effort aimed at linking potential literacy learners with literacy groups. Two questionnaires were administered to 94 literacy groups, with 3,557 respondents. Findings included the following:(1) 70 percent of calls to literacy groups were from adult learners aged 16-44;(2) more calls were received from men in rural areas and from women in urban areas; (3) 77 percent of callers were native English speakers;(4) 80 percent of callers had not completed high school, compared with 38 percent of the general population; (5) about equal numbers of learners were seeking elementary-level literacy classes and high-school level classes;(6) 44 percent of all calls to literacy organizations were associated with the LEARN campaign; and (7) 95 percent of potential learners who saw a LEARN advertisement said it helped them decide to call. The study showed conclusively that the LEARN campaign is having a profound impact on potential literacy learners and on literacy groups in every part of Canada. (This report includes 5 tables and 24 figures; 9 appendixes include detailed information on the LEARN campaign, the participating organizations, the surveys, and the impacts on various groups.)
