Municipality of North Grenville File No Report No. CS-008-2018 Municipality of North Grenville File No. C7-CS Agenda Date: September 17th, 2018 – Committee of the Whole Subject: Sites of Remembrance Project Attachments: Appendix 1: Project Request from Roy Brown Appendix 2: Heritage Advisory Committee Resolution of Support RECOMMENDATION The following recommendation is provided for the Committee of the Whole’s consideration: That Committee of the Whole recommend to Council that staff be directed to implement the North Grenville Sites of Remembrance website project. BACKGROUND In the fall of 2017, Roy Brown sent correspondence to Council outlining his idea for a special North Grenville Sites of Remembrance project and requesting that the Sites of Remembrance be featured on a page of the Municipal website. (Appendix 1) Council referred the request to the Heritage Advisory Committee for a recommendation and, pending the Committee’s response, a report from staff. At the February 5th, 2018 Committee of the Whole meeting, the Committee responded with a recommendation to implement the request (Appendix 2) and staff advised an administration report on implementing the project would be coming to Committee of the Whole. ANALYSIS The Municipality currently contracts the design and creation of its websites to a local firm as we do not have the knowledge and expertise on staff. However, once the pages have been designed, in-house staff can populate and maintain the information. Our contractor estimates that the project will cost around $2,000 and take approximately 2-3 days to complete. In addition, there will likely be about 1½ days of Municipal staff time required. Given the fact that the information contained on the Sites of Remembrance page won’t need to be updated or changed on a frequent basis, there likely won’t be any other costs, in-house or contracted out, associated with the project. Due to prior commitments of the contractor and the Municipal election taking place in October, the timeline for the website to go live would be sometime in late November or December if Council directs the project to go forward this year. This project was not anticipated in the 2018 Municipal budget, however, after reviewing the year-to-date expenses, staff are confident that the cost will be able to be included as part of the Heritage budget allocation. 1 ALTERNATIVES 1. Not move forward with the project. This is not recommended as the Heritage Advisory Committee has advised Council of their support for the initiative. 2. Move forward with the project in 2019 pending budget approval. This is a viable option, however, as there is room in the 2018 budget, staff recommend that the project move forward in a timely manner. FINANCIAL/STAFFING IMPLICATIONS This item has been identified in the current budget: Yes □ No X N/A □ This item is within the budgeted amount: Yes X No □ N/A □ As noted, this project, with an estimated cost of $2,000, was not anticipated in the 2018 budget. However, there is enough money available within the budget allocated to Heritage to cover the cost of the project. Staffing implications, as they relate to implementing Council’s decision on this matter, are limited to the existing staff complement and applicable administrative policies as approved by Council. LINK TO COMMUNITY STRATEGIC PLAN According to Section 5.1 of the Plan, the Municipality will work with partners to create opportunities for local residents to be artistically expressive and to celebrate local culture and heritage.

Box 130 Kemptville, Ontario KOG 1JO October 25. 2017 Attention: Mayor David Gordon, Deputy Mayor Barb Tobin, Councillor Donovan Arnaud, Councillor James Bertram, Councillor Frank Onasanya. Reference: North Grenville Sites of Remembrance Project. Mayor Gordon, The enclosed documentation is a special project I have developed as part of my continuing efforts to research, identify and preserve information on our North Grenville Military Heroes both past and present. This project, entitled "North Grenville Sites of Remembrance" is a collection of buildings and places within our community that honour and pay tribute to those that served in the Royal Canadian Army, Royal Canadian Navy, Royal Canadian Air Force, Royal Canadian Naval Reserve and the Military Nursing Sisters, many of whom lost their lives in service of the King, Queen and Country. What I would like to see done is to have municipal staff design and create a special webpage on the Municipal website, to accommodate the photographs and information contained in the project brief. There are several options available and the webpage could include the photographs and accompanying script as written or condensed into smaller information packets with or without the photographs. This also gives rise for the opportunity to gradually enhance the webpage at a future date by expanding it to include the backgrounds of several of the names listed at the Sites of Remembrance. For example, I have most of that information at hand, resulting from research projects over the past decade that relate to the Kemptville Cenotaph, Veterans Way, Veterans Way Memorial Park and my on-going North Grenville Honour Roll Project. A further option would be to create and establish a "North Grenville Route of Remembrance" or "North Grenville Ceremonial Route" with geographic mapping to guide visitors from site to site similar to the locator map contained on page twenty-five of the project brief. Link to the Community Strategic Plan, June 2013 5.1 Arts, Culture and Heritage Theme Statement: The Municipality will work with partners to create opportunities for local residents to be artistically expressive and to celebrate local culture and heritage. In keeping with the theme statement, I believe this culture and heritage project will effectively contribute towards the achievement of the following strategic goals: (Continued on page 2) Appendix 1 CS-008-2018 -2- Link to the Community Strategic Plan, June 2013 - continued... 5.1 Arts, Culture and Heritage - continued... " build community pride and promote the built heritage and environment within North Grenville, - celebrating the community's collective culture and heritage, remembering the past, • arts, culture and heritage are integral to community and quality of life, increasing the sense of place and creating a feeling of belonging to something special, • include the arts, culture and heritage in our efforts to make the downtown a community focal point. Notes: As of this date, I am continuing my efforts to canvas some of the outlying deconsecrated Churches and other sites within our community that may have or house Honour Rolls or additional information that could be included in the project. And further, a full copy of this documentation will be provided to Dr. David Shanahan, Society Historian, for the North Grenville Historical Society Archives. In closing, may I suggest and propose that this project be considered an in-house and collaborative effort on the part of the Municipality, staff and myseif as North Grenville's Canada 150 Tribute to the Military. If approved in principle by Council, I recommend that the project be launched by way of a Municipal Media Advisory as a work in progress and timed for a release date just prior to this year's Remembrance Day, Saturday, November 11, 2017.

  • North Grenville
    RVCA Work In North Grenville he strength and resiliency of our local communities rely on the Rideau River and its surrounding watershed. T Without lakes, rivers, streams, forests, wetlands, floodplains, natural shorelines and groundwater aquifers we wouldn’t have air to breathe, water to drink, places to boat, swim and fish, water and soil to support agriculture and industry or green spaces to explore and relax in. Simply put, natural areas sustain life. They also support economic development and property values, reduce flood, erosion and drought impacts and they are the best defense against climate change. Since people and nature are interconnected and interdependent, the Rideau Valley Conservation Authority (RVCA) works closely with local municipalities, residents and other partners to deliver programs and services that protect, restore and enhance the Rideau watershed. RVCA's work also protects people and property from natural hazards like flooding and erosion. Serving your Municipality • Planning services — provide professional, technical It’s hard to find a municipal service that RVCA’s programs review of development proposals within or don’t support either directly or indirectly. We provide adjacent to natural areas for member municipalities watershed knowledge and expertise that guides regarding official plan amendments, zoning by- municipal decision-making, assists with emergency law amendments, plans of subdivision, site plans, management and ensures sustainable development. consents/severances and minor variances Our programs also support local economic development, • Septic approvals and re-inspections — provide tourism and recreation and we provide these programs in inspection and approval services for new or a consistent cost-effective manner across the watershed.
