8 9.1 Durham Regional Police Body-Worn Camera Project

Regional Councillor Crawford introduced the motion and its contents. Council Members discussed their support for the motion.

Moved by: M. Crawford Seconded by: S. Lee

WHEREAS the Durham Region Police Service (DRPS) released its Body-Worn Camera (BWC) Pilot Evaluation Report on September 14th for consideration by Durham Region Police Services Board (“the Board”);

AND WHEREAS the report concludes that the deployment of BWCs to Frontline Members of DRPS will provide value to DRPS, its partners and the community, and it aligns with the strategic plans of the Region, Town and DRPS;

AND WHEREAS the report further states that an investment in BWCs has tremendous potential to be an enabler of transformative and restorative change for the DRPS;

AND WHEREAS the Board’s Finance Committee recommended the following on Sept 14th:

"THAT the Finance Committee recommend that the Board approve in principle the adoption of body-worn cameras for the DRPS; and

THAT cost details and a phased implementation plan be finalized for deployment beginning in 2021 and that the necessary funding be sought from Regional Council separate and apart from the budget process;"

9 9.2 Food Industry Worker Day

Councillor Bower introduced the motion and reviewed its contents.

Moved by: L. Bower Seconded by: J. Dies

WHEREAS World Food Day – an international day to take action against hunger and to advance healthy diets for all – is observed by 150 countries around the world on the third Friday of October (close in timing to Thanksgiving traditions in Canada), and is celebrating its 75th anniversary on October 16, 2020; and

WHEREAS As countries around the world come to terms with the health, social and economic damage caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, we have a renewed sense of understanding about how important national and locally-grown food supplies are, as grocery stores remained stocked with nutritious food options for Ajacians; and

WHEREAS The week of Thanksgiving allows Ajacians an opportunity to reflect on our great fortune to live in a country and province where local food is available year-round, but we must not lose sight of those who sacrifice to ensure that local food is planted, cultivated, harvested, processed and distributed; and

WHEREAS The agri-food industry employs almost 8,000 people in Durham Region alone, relies on approximately 600 seasonal agricultural workers, and directly impacts a further 25,000 people employed in food services (including grocery stores and restaurants); and

WHEREAS The direct and indirect economic impact of the agri-food industry is significant across the Region. According to Statistics Canada (2016), the average household in Durham Region spends almost $1,000 every month (11% of average household income) on food consumption, and over 200 farms in Durham Region report direct to consumer sales; and

WHEREAS Food industry workers endure tough working conditions including long hours, precarious and/or seasonal labour availability, and essential status through crisis events, like COVID-19, that directly put people in factories, in dorms or working in close proximity at risk;

THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED THAT

1) Ajax Council formally marks the 75th anniversary of World Food Day by proclaiming the Friday after Thanksgiving (October 16, 2020) as Food Industry Workers Day in Ajax, acknowledging with gratitude the sacrifices made to ensure we have abundant food available in our grocery stores and farmer’s markets, maintaining healthy and fresh food options for Ajacians throughout the COVID-19 crisis and every day; and

2) That this resolution be distributed to Durham Regional Council, Durham Agricultural Advisory Committee, Durham Region MPs and MPPs, the Minister of Agriculture and Agri-Food, Ontario Minister of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs, and the Ontario Minister of Labour, Training and Skills Development CARRIED

10 9.3 Limiting Cash-Advance “Payday Loan” Stores in the Town of

Regional Councillor Lee introduced the motion and reviewed its contents.

Moved by: S. Lee Seconded by: L. Bower

WHEREAS beginning January 1, 2018, the Province of Ontario allowed municipalities to restrict where payday loan establishments can open and the number that can operate in a given area; and

WHEREAS there are almost 20 “payday loan” establishments in the Town of Ajax (TOA), concentrated along the Kingston Road corridor and in downtown Ajax; and

WHEREAS in September 2019, the City of Ottawa approved changes to their Zoning By- laws to stipulate that new payday loan establishments cannot be within 1 kilometer of each other, that no establishment could be within 300 metres of a school (including post- secondary), or within 500 metres of a casino or racetrack; and

WHEREAS in October 2019, the City of Toronto approved amendments to the City of Toronto Municipal Code’s Licensing Policy to prohibit issuing any additional payday loan establishments and add a $645.53 application fee for a payday loan establishment location change request, adjusted annually based on the Consumer Price Index; and

WHEREAS a recent (May 20, 2020) City of Oshawa staff report recommended that the total number of payday loan establishments be limited to two (2) per ward to a total of 10 within City limits; and

WHEREAS in spite of limitations introduced by the Province of Ontario’s Bill 197 limiting the interest rate at 2.5 per cent per month, and not allowing interest to be compounded on the outstanding principal (assuming the agreement is $1,500 or less, or terms are 62 days or less), Ajax Council believes that the number of payday loan establishments in TOA boundaries are worrisome from a consumer safety perspective and wishes to cap the establishments at current levels;

THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED THAT:

1. Staff be directed to prepare a report to be presented at a future meeting of Council or the appropriate Standing Committee regarding:

a. The creation of a licensing system specific to payday loan establishments, including accompanying fees set at a comparable rate in line with other GTHA municipalities; b. The restriction of the number of payday loan establishments per ward in the Town, with appropriate grandfathering provisions for currently operating establishments; and c. appropriate municipal tools or by-laws to establish restrictions on the location and concentration of payday loan establishments.

11 2. The Town of Ajax join the City of Oshawa in its advocacy efforts to request that the Government of Canada:

a. Require chartered banks and credit unions to have branches in low-income neighbourhoods which offer credit lines to low-income people at the same rates they offer to other customers; and b. Work with partners such as credit unions and chartered banks, to encourage and steward the development of lower-cost financial products that can provide an alternative for users of payday loan establishments.

3 That this resolution be forwarded to Prime Minister Trudeau, Premier Ford, Hon. Mark Holland, MP and Hon. Rod Phillips, MPP, the Region of Durham, all Durham municipalities, the Federation of Canadian Municipalities and the Association of Municipalities of Ontario CARRIED

4. Business Arising from Notice of Motion

4.1 Motion in support of ambulatory services at Ajax Pickering Hospital

Mayor Collier vacated the Chair. Deputy Mayor Dies assumed the Chair.

Mayor Collier introduced the motion and its contents. Council Members discussed the motion.

Moved by: S. Collier Seconded by: M. Crawford

Whereas Ajax Council and the Town of Ajax have been and remain strong supporters of our local Lakeridge Health hospital, and show this support by contributing annually through ongoing financial support totaling $1.6 million over 10 years, participating in the Mayors’ Charity Golf Classic which has raised $4 million over 25 years, and continued advocacy efforts; and

Whereas Council has been advised that Lakeridge Health Corporation, through its regular business planning process, is working with internal members across the Lakeridge Health

17 system to explore new and innovative ways to provide care; and

Whereas it is our understanding that one area of focus is the ambulatory care unit (ACU), which plays a critical role in diverting patients from emergency departments and supporting safe, and timely discharges; and

Whereas the Bowmanville, Oshawa and Ajax ACU sites are already functioning at 100% capacity and maximum efficiency with waiting lists for priority cases; and

Whereas it has been shared that the corporation is considering a 20% reduction to the ambulatory care budget, which would result in a cut of $625k to the Ajax Pickering Hospital ACU (which represents 67% of the total proposed cut of $975k), and have a far greater impact on patients, nursing staff and overall hospital care than the total 0.01% savings represented; and

Whereas any cuts in resources will have a direct effect on the high volume of patients that are seen and treated every day at the Ajax Pickering Hospital ACU, which provides critical services such as 24/7/365 emergency support, fracture clinics, shoulder clinics and plastic surgery program and specialty services and programs.

Therefore be it resolved that:

1. Ajax Council reaffirms their unwavering support for the Ajax Pickering Hospital and the doctors that provide quality, timely and compassionate care to residents; and 2. That Ajax Council urges the leadership of Lakeridge Health to reconsider reducing resources at the ambulatory care units, knowing it will have serious consequences; and 3. That Lakeridge Health involve hospital and surgery leads in any discussions regarding service cuts and/or new approaches to care; and 4. That this motion be distributed to Premier Ford, Minister Elliott, all Durham Region MPPs and Durham Region municipalities. CARRIED

5. That the Mayor be directed on behalf of Council to send a letter to the provincial and federal governments urging them to continue to seek multi- level solutions to the accountability challenges for municipalities when dealing with online home-sharing platforms.

In accordance with Part 5 of the above noted resolution, this correspondence, outlining municipal challenges regarding online home-sharing platforms, has been sent to your attention to urge that the Province continue to further its leadership role and seek multi-level solutions to these challenges.

The sharing economy, specifically home-sharing, is impacting municipalities both large and small. Home-sharing, which is one of the fastest growing sectors of the sharing economy, is generally understood to refer to individuals renting out their residence, or part of their residence, for short periods of time through internet- based platforms such as Airbnb, HomeAway and VRBO (the latter two owned by the Expedia Group).

Home-sharing has both positive and negative impacts for municipalities. The Province, the Large Urban Mayors Caucus, the Association of Municipalities of Ontario and other policy institutions have documented these impacts. The Federation of Canadian Municipalities will also be releasing a toolkit this fall. Municipal governments are a responsible and accountable level of government but are not necessarily in the best position to address matters associated with home-sharing. For example, there are limitations to the powers municipalities have to regulate certain aspects of home-sharing platforms and owner/operators. Home-sharing, what the City of Oshawa refers to as short-term rentals, has the following implications for municipalities:

• There is an increased need for municipal, including police, enforcement in response to local complaints. In some cases, increased traffic, loud parties, fights, assaults or criminal offences are taking place. Short-term rentals that pose adverse impacts on residents and businesses challenge police and municipal enforcement tools and capacity.

• Licensing is a way municipalities gather information about business operations to monitor and protect residents and measure impact, however, complications arise when licensing short-term rental accommodation platforms. Platforms like Airbnb reside outside of Canada leaving municipalities with no effective recourse if there is non-compliance with local licensing regulations. Memorandums of Understanding are being used by some municipalities but have limitations as they rely on the goodwill of the platform. A licensing system also taxes local capacity and,

23 as Oshawa cannot count on the assistance of platforms, a third-party compliance monitoring service will be needed.

• There is an administrative burden and associated cost of enforcement and licensing. Municipal governments need to ensure the costs of administration are covered without establishing a burdensome licensing fee that may discourage compliance with municipal licensing systems.

• Reliable data is key to effectively regulate, monitor and assess the impacts of home-sharing platforms. It is also essential for informed public policy. While platforms indicate that they support the concept of data sharing, in practice, concerns have emerged about their compliance and transparency. As a result, collecting and maintaining records, involving privacy and regular information sharing, becomes complicated.

• Home-sharing has the potential to negatively impact the availability of long-term rental housing and housing affordability specifically in instances where home-sharing is undertaken in properties that are not an individual’s principal residence. This would effectively reduce the number of places for people to live, which poses a challenge for municipal governments to plan for and respond to the housing needs of their residents.

• The impacts of economic activity outside of regular, tax-paying businesses on a municipal tax base have not been quantified.

We do not know where the sharing economy, and home-sharing in particular, are going. What we do know, and the Federation of Canadian Municipalities has confirmed, is that the impact of home-sharing on its municipal members is significant. Home-sharing creates new opportunities for economic participation by residents but to ensure the widest benefit, municipal government action must balance regulation and free market operation appropriately. Municipalities prefer the ability to develop locally-tailored solutions but in the case of home-sharing this is resulting in different approaches, different requirements for platforms and as a result, different outcomes. On one hand, this may make it complicated for platforms operating across numerous jurisdictions to comply with individual local regulations, but at the same time easier for them to stay within the grey zone and not be held accountable.

In order for the City to continue to promote the best outcomes for residents by protecting consumers, controlling nuisances, and ensuring adequate rental supplies and housing affordability, the City requests that the Province continue to further its leadership role and seek multi-level solutions to the challenges faced by municipalities from online home-sharing platforms. For your consideration, this could include:

24 • Further research regarding municipal challenges and responses, platform accountability and gaps in regulation, perhaps in collaboration with the Association of Municipalities of Ontario and/or the Federation of Canadian Municipalities. This should include further research into how jurisdictions outside of Ontario are able to address platform regulation. Studies indicate that not enough research has been conducted on the overall impacts of the sharing economy, and this is especially true for mid-sized cities and smaller towns. The more data municipalities can draw on to better understand the impacts of sharing initiatives the better they can develop an appropriate local response.

• Legislative and regulatory changes that provide consistency across the Province, for example, in terms of information sharing or platform disclosure requirements and tools to hold off-shore companies to account.

• Additional education to help sharing economy platforms and users (owners/operators and customers) understand their rights and obligations.

Thank you for your time and consideration. I would be pleased to answer any questions you may have.

Sincerely,

Mayor Dan Carter cc. Hon. Doug Ford, Premier Hon. Rod Phillips, Ontario Minister of Finance Jennifer French, MPP Lindsey Park, MPP Chair Henry, Region of Durham Durham Area Municipalities (Clerks) Jamie McGarvey, President, Association of Municipalities of Ontario

WHEREAS Bill 197 establishes a dangerous precedent that could be expanded to other types of development; and

WHEREAS Bill 197 compromises municipal autonomy and the authority of municipal councils to make informed decisions in the best interest of their communities and municipal taxpayers; and

46 Town of Ajax Report

Report To: Council

Prepared By: John Grieve, MCIP, RPP, Supervisor of Transportation

Subject: Traffic Calming Along Williamson Drive West Petition

Ward(s): 2

Date of Meeting: October 19, 2020

Reference: Residents of Williamson Drive West: Petition to Town of Ajax – Traffic Calming Along Williamson Drive West, September16, 2019 Council Meeting

Recommendation:

That the report entitled “Traffic Calming Along Williamson Drive West Petition” be received for information. Background:

In September 2019, Town Council received a completed petition on behalf of residents living on Williamson Drive between Ravenscroft Road and Bellinger Drive. The purpose of the petition is to review this segment of road to see if it is eligible for traffic calming.

Williamson Drive West from Bellinger Drive to Ravenscroft Road is designated a Type “C” Arterial Road in the Town’s Official Plan with, dedicated bike lanes and, an all-way stop controlled intersection at Williamson Drive West and Searell Avenue / Winterton Way. As outlined in the Town of Ajax Traffic By-Law 5-2004 Office Consolidation January 2019, there are two designated speed limits on this section of road. From Ravenscroft Road to the intersection of Searell Avenue / Winterton Way the speed limit is 50km/h, while from the intersection of Searell Avenue / Winterton Way to approximately 60 meters east of Bellinger Drive the speed limit is 40km/h. Discussion:

In order to complete an evaluation, Town staff needed to ensure there was the necessary data available. At the time the petition was submitted, there was available data for the segment of Williamson Drive West between Searell Avenue / Winterton Way and Bellinger Drive. Additional data was collected in Fall 2019 for the segment of Williamson Drive West between Ravenscroft Road and Searell Avenue / Winterton Way.

The Town of Ajax recently completed an update to the Traffic Calming Warrant. The updated warrant provides a revised and refined process to address traffic calming requests. In the new warrant the evaluation criteria was reviewed and scoring was revised slightly.

47 Given that this petition was submitted in 2019, both the 2015 Traffic Calming Warrant and new 2020 Traffic Calming Warrant were considered in the evaluation. With both warrants, a road segment must meet a minimum threshold 85th percentile speed to be considered for traffic calming. That minimum threshold in both warrants is 10km/h above the posted speed limit.

Based on the data collected, neither segment saw 85th percentile speeds above this minimum threshold. The segment between Ravenscroft Road and Searall Avenue had a 85th percentile speed of 49 km/h (posted speed limit 50km/h), while the segment between Searell Avenue / Winterton Way and Bellinger Drive had a 85th percentile speed of 47 km/h (posted speed limit 40km.h). Financial Implications:

N/A Communication Issues:

N/A Conclusion:

Town Staff have reviewed the petition and completed the requested analysis for traffic calming on Williamson Drive West. The analysis of the traffic characteristics between Ravenscroft Road and Bellinger Drive indicate that it is not warranted for Traffic Calming measures at this time based on the process which is outline in the Town’s Traffic Calming Warrant.

48 Town of Ajax Report

Report To: Council

Prepared By: Kassandra Cruciano Grants and Strategic Initiatives Coordinator

Subject: Safe Restart Funding – Phase 2 Application

Ward(s): ALL

Date of Meeting: October 19, 2020

Reference: Council Report – COVID-19 Response Update – September 21, 2020

Recommendation:

That Council direct staff to apply for the second phase of federal-provincial Safe Restart Funding by the October 30, 2020 deadline.

Background:

As part of the federal-provincial Safe Restart Agreement, the Ontario government is providing up to $4 billion in emergency assistance to support municipalities as they respond to and recover from the impacts of COVID-19.

A total of $695 million was allocated under Phase 1 to all 444 municipalities in Ontario, including $2.34 million to the Town of Ajax. An additional $695 million has been made available to municipalities that can demonstrate COVID-19 related financial impacts that are above and beyond the allocation provided in Phase 1.

As referenced in a Report from the CAO to Council in September 2020, staff have identified substantial financial impacts and pressures as a result of COVID-19.

This includes approximately $12.2 million in revenue shortfall across the Corporation, as demonstrated in the chart in ATT-1. The impact of the $12.2M has been offset by approximately $5.6M in savings, largely from the layoffs of part-time staff, resulting in a net shortfall of approximately $6.6M.

The $2.34 million that has been already allocated as a result of Phase 1 will be applied towards addressing the net shortfall, but evidently will not be sufficient to cover the Town’s overall revenue loss.

Discussion:

Phase 2 of the Safe Restart Funding is intended to provide further financial support to municipalities that require additional funds to address extraordinary operating expenditures and revenue losses arising from COVID-19 in 2020.

49 Subject: Safe Restart Funding – Phase 2 Application Page 2

Staff will be required to fill out a reporting template that has been provided by the province, with the intention of providing an overall picture of the municipality’s financial operating pressures. The report, includes:

1. Information about the measures the Town has undertaken to date to reduce financial pressures (eg. cost saving measures); 2. Explanation of how the municipality has applied or intends to apply Phase 1 funding towards existing COVID-19 operating costs and pressures; 3. A year-end forecast of COVID-19 operating costs and pressures; 4. Actual COVID-related impacts as of the end of Q3 of the municipal fiscal year; 5. A statement from the Treasurer as to the accuracy of the reporting; and 6. Resolution of Council to seek additional funding

The requirement of a Council resolution requesting financial assistance is to ensure the municipal Councils have assessed the financial situation of their municipalities, and deem it warranted that further assistance is needed from the upper levels of government.

Staff have identified and shared with Council the substantial impacts on our revenue sources as a result of COVID-19. In addition to losses of revenue specific to recreation programs and parking enforcement, not receiving our budgeted allocations from the casino, Elexicon dividends and our operating budget investment revenue have largely contributed to this shortfall.

While parking enforcement will resume for the latter half of October, decisions affecting other areas of the organization will continue to result in revenue losses from our initial projections to the end of September.

For instance, facility permits have been further restricted in line with provincial guidelines for unmonitored indoor gatherings to a maximum of 10 people; staff have postponed the opening of fitness centres and fitness programming; and the Town’s special events portfolio has been scaled back substantially.

The province has also halted the expansion of the capacity for the casino, which will limit any revenues to be generated and passed on to the Town. Since September 28, the capacity has been limited to a maximum of 50 people, which will be in effect per provincial regulation until at least the beginning of November.

Financial Implications:

As noted in ATT-1, staff identified the approximate net shortfall to be approximately $6.6 million as of the end of September 30, 2020. Assuming the $2.34 million will be applied to that amount, the Town is still facing a shortfall of approximately $4.26 million.

Net shortfall projected as of September 30, 2020 $6.6 million Safe Restart Funding Phase 1 $2.34 million Anticipated Shortfall to warrant Phase 2 application $4.26 million

The financial report that is being submitted to the province will include figures and projections up until the end of the year, which may result in the identified shortfall being different than noted in this report. This amount will further be affected if Durham Region faces further restrictions as a result of growing COVID-19 case numbers.

50 Subject: Safe Restart Funding – Phase 2 Application Page 3

Ultimately, it is staff’s hope that this application will assist the Town in mitigating its net shortfall as a result of COVID-19.

Communication Issues:

Staff in the Office of the CAO will support the Finance department in the completion of the application, as well as to coordinate follow up correspondence to Minister Phillips and MP Holland to ensure they are aware of our submission as our local provincial and federal representatives.

Other advocacy efforts may be undertaken on an as-needed basis, or in conjunction with our municipal partners.

Relationship to the Strategic Plan:

N/A

Conclusion:

The impact of COVID-19 on municipal finances has been unprecedented.

While the Town has received $2.34 million in relief funding from the province as part of the first phase of the federal-provincial Safe Restart Agreement, staff have identified a shortfall that exceeds the amount that has been provided.

Council’s approval of the recommendation contained in this report will permit staff to apply for the second phase of the Safe Restart Agreement funding, in an effort to continue to manage the Town’s actual and projected fiscal pressures as a result of COVID-19 through to the end of the municipal fiscal year.
