Business Arising from the Minutes 5.1 Agricultural Economic Development Opportunities: Community Improvement Plan (CIP) Potential • Community Improvement Plans are planning and economic development tools used to encourage re/development and re/investment in a community. • Earlier this year, Augusta established a CIP to disburse Provincial Main Street Revitalization Initiative funds through a grant program to main street businesses in the Township. • Some Ontario communities, including the Township of Springwater, the Township of Norwich, and the Municipality of Strathroy-Caradoc have incorporated grant programs into their CIPs to encourage investments in agriculture-related businesses. • For instance, the Township of Springwater CIP includes a goal of “promoting agricultural diversification, tourism and local recreation;” and an objective of encouraging “the development and enhancement of value-added agricultural uses, agri-tourism and on-farm diversified facilities…” • Committee discussion reflected that some farmers welcome tourism, while others would prefer not to have visitors on their property. • Farmers that welcome visitors may encounter higher costs for insurance. Animal health and wellbeing may also become a concern.

Senior Water Resources Engineer Contributing staff: Simon Nolan, Engineering Assistant David Crossman, GIS Coordinator Perry Ghioureliotis, GIS Specialist Patrick Larson, Senior Water Resources Technician Andrea Larsen, Hydrometric Technician Executive Summary This report provides a summary of the analytical methods used and underlying assumptions applied in the preparation of flood plain mapping for the Rideau River from Kars to Burritts Rapids. The project has been completed in accordance with the technical guidelines set out under the Canada-Ontario Flood Damage Reduction Program (FDRP) (MNR, 1986), and the technical guide for the flood hazard delineation in Ontario (MNR, 2002) as laid out by the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources. The 1:100 year flood lines delineated here are suitable for use in the RVCA’s regulation limits mapping (as per Ontario Regulation 174/06) and in municipal land use planning and development approval processes under the Planning Act.
