Executive Summary: N/A Background: The Minister of Economic Development, Job Creation and Trade introduced Bill 66, Restoring Ontario’s Competitiveness Act, on December 6th, 2018. The proposed legislation holds significant interest for municipal governments, having passed First Reading and returning for Session on February 19th, 2019. To clarify the proposed legislation, the Association of Municipalities of Ontario (AMO) issued a Communications Information Package which went to City Council entitled Bill 66 – Municipal Implications Overview on Monday, January 7, 2019. This report intends to expand on how Bill 66 and the Provincial review of Development Charges may affect municipal governments. Discussion: Bill 66, Restoring Ontario’s Competitiveness Act Bill 66 would amend seventeen (17) Acts, four (4) of which would affect municipal governments: the Pawnbrokers Act, Long-term Care Homes Act (2007), Child Care and Early Years Act (2015), Education Act, and Labour Relations Act (1995). COUNCIL AGENDA - February 25, 2019 Page 7 of 346 Page 1 of 7 The Pawnbrokers Act The Pawnbrokers Act was created to regulate pawnshops and second hand stores, wherein authority was retained by municipal governments to create by-laws and business licenses to regulate pawnshops. The proposed legislation would repeal the Pawnbrokers Act in its entirety. More specifically, Schedule 2 would eliminate law enforcement tools aimed at enforcing against theft and enabling the search and return of stolen goods. The AMO will be connecting with police services to obtain their perspective on the impacts that the change would bring and consider alternatives. The City of Windsor licences and regulates Retail/Resale Shops and Pawnbrokers in conjunction with Business Licensing By-law # 395-2004, Schedule R1 and the Pawnbrokers Act, R.S.O. 1990. These regulations govern Retail/Resale Stores for those who buy, sell or otherwise deal in used goods and Pawnbrokers for those who exercise the trade of receiving or taking by way of pawn or pledge, any goods for the repayment of money. Regulations are in place for the purpose of consumer protection by ensuring that stolen goods are not being traded. There are currently seven (7) licensed Pawnbrokers and one hundred-twenty (120) licensed Retail/Resale Shops within the municipality. The legislation governing these business types is enforced by Windsor Police Service and in some cases, the City’s By-law Enforcement Division. Although the City already has a by-law and licensing Schedule in place, a repeal of the provincial Pawnbrokers Act would present a challenge for the continuance of the administration and enforcement of the municipal legislation on its own.

In recent years, the City has played a critical role in strengthening the downtown and succeeded in building strong partnerships with key stakeholders to propel these revitalization efforts forward. Despite these important gains, downtown Windsor has some way to go to reach its potential. It faces significant challenges in terms of addressing visible vacancies along its main shopping streets, attracting new businesses, growing its job base, filling its office inventory and attracting more residents. Stakeholders in downtown Windsor will need to continue to work together to address these challenges and ensure that downtown Windsor can keep moving forward along the road to revitalization. 1 Downtown Windsor Timeline 1701 – Sieur de Lamonthe establishes Fort Pontchartrain, the area’s first European settlement. 1749 – Windsor is settled by the French as “Petite Cote,” originally a small Jesuit mission. It is the oldest continually inhabited settlement in Canada west of Montreal. 1792 – The Duff Baby House is built by Alexander Duff as 1794 – The settlement of Sandwich is founded following a fur trade post.
