Planning Department REPORT Z-01-2021

To: Mayor and Members of Council

From: Jennifer Laforest

Date: April 8 2021

Subject: Final Report - Zoning By-law Amendment (West Hawkesbury)

Recommendation:

BE IT RESOLVED THAT that the Planning Department Report Z-01-2021 regarding the proposed Zoning By-Law Amendment for Gestion PAR 5 be received, and that By-law 2021-19 be granted third reading.

Background:

The zoning by-law amendment proposes to change the zoning category from Rural Zone with Aggregate Reserve (RU-ar), Rural Residential (RR), Agriculture Zone (A) and Agriculture with Aggregate Reserve (A-ar) to Rural Zone Special Exception Zone (RU-62) and Agricultural Special Exception Zone (A-34) (A-34-ar). The Zoning By-Law Amendment is required in order to allow limited residential uses including a hobby farm and to restrict residential uses on the agricultural lands. Obtaining a Zoning By-law Amendment is a condition of consent application B-001-2020.

Subject Site:

The area affected by this proposed zoning by-law amendment can be regarded as two separate parcels – a residential parcel frontage on Sandy Hill Rd. with 2.756 hectares (6.8 acre) lot, and agricultural lands fronting County Rd. 17 forming 11.36 hectares (28 acres).

Notification:

The application to amend the Township of Champlain Zoning By-Law 2000-75 was received on January 25th 2021. The proposed Zoning By-law Amendment was circulated internally within the Township of Champlain and on February 17th 2021. A revised notice with updated map was sent on March 2nd 2021.

REPORT Z-01-2021 5 Page 1 of 3

A Notice of Application and Notice of Public Meeting was sent to property owners at 120 meters, to the agencies prescribed by the Planning Act and published in the newspapers on February 17th 2021. The Township of Champlain has also posted a copy of the staff report, notice of application and staff presentation for the public meeting on the Township’s ‘Applications Under Review’ webpage.

Public Comments:

An electronic public meeting was held on March 11th 2021. No comments were received. Administration has not received additional correspondence or comments from adjacent neighbors since the public meeting.

Circulation:

The following agencies and departments were circulated a copy of the application. No comments have been received.

Public Works

No comments at this time.

Options/Alternatives:

1. Council can proceed with third reading of By-law 2021-19 as presented.

2. Council may refuse the proposed zoning by-law amendment.

Financial Implications:

The applicants have paid the application processing fee ($2,000).

Planning Comments:

The lands subject to this zoning amendment application are located in West Hawkesbury. In my view, the proposed zoning change is consistent with the PPS, the UCPR Official Plan and the Township of Champlain Official Plan and promotes appropriate development in Rural Policy and Agricultural Resource Areas.

If Council has no further concerns, the By-law may proceed with third and final reading.

REPORT B-016-2021

To: Mayor and Members of Council

From: Jennifer Laforest

Date: April 8 2021

Subject: Consent Application – Rural Zone (West Hawkesbury)

Recommendation

BE IT RESOLVED THAT the consent application for Cameron Rodger as well as comments from the Planner, the Drainage Superintendent, Public Works and the Chief Building Official, be received and that the application referred to as B-016-2021 be granted with the following conditions:

1. Provide to the Township of Champlain, a site survey for severed Lot (A) to be completed by an Ontario Land Surveyor O.L.S. which confirms the lot area is 5 acres or 2.02 hectares. If Lot A is proposed with less than 5 acres or 2.02 hectares, the applicant will be required to obtain a zoning by-law amendment, clear of any appeal, to remove agricultural uses from Lot A;

2. That the owner(s) provide written correspondence to the Champlain Township stating that they are aware the property is part of the W.J. Douglas and Little Rideau Creek municipal drain watersheds, and that they will accept the revised schedule of assessment as prepared by the Drainage Superintendent or, accept at their cost, a revised schedule of assessment prepared by an engineer appointed by the Champlain Township; and,

3. Payment of the balance of any outstanding taxes, including penalties and interest, shall be paid to the Municipality.

Background

On March 16th 2021, The United Counties of Prescott and Russell distributed notice of severance application for Cameron Rodger. The application proposes to create a new rural lot on the South side of Pleasant Corner Rd.

CONSENT APPLICATION B-016-2021 Page 1 of 5 9

Described as being Part of Lots 5 and 6, Concession 4, the property subject to this application is spans 124 acres or 50 hectares. The applicant proposes to sever Lot (A) in from Lot (B) in order to create a new 5 acre or 2.02 hectare lot.

This area is comprised of medium to large size farms ranging from 40 acre (16 hectares) to 450 acre (180 hectares) farms. The nearest rural residential lot, is 800m to the East. Despite the large farm lands, the subject property is located in the Rural Policy Area, and therefore not subject to the protection policies applicable to Agricultural Resource Policy Areas.

Analysis

Provincial Policy Statement The 2020 Provincial Policy Statement (PPS) provides policy direction on matters of provincial interest related to land use planning and development. Under Section 3 of the Planning Act, where a municipality is exercising its authority affecting a planning matter, such decisions “shall be consistent with” all policy statements issued under the Act.

1.1.5.2 On rural lands located in municipalities, permitted uses are:

CONSENT APPLICATION B-016-2021 Page 2 of 5 10 a) the management or use of resources; b) resource-based recreational uses (including recreational dwellings); c) residential development, including lot creation, that is locally appropriate; d) agricultural uses, agriculture-related uses, on-farm diversified uses and normal farm practices, in accordance with provincial standards; e) home occupations and home industries; f) cemeteries; and g) other rural land uses

1.1.5.4 Development that is compatible with the rural landscape and can be sustained by rural service levels should be promoted.

1.1.5.8 New land uses, including the creation of lots, and new or expanding livestock facilities, shall comply with the minimum distance separation formulae.

Official Plan from the United Counties of Prescott and Russell

The subject land is within the ‘Rural Policy Area’ according to Schedule A of the UCPR Official Plan. As per Schedule C, the rural 124 acre property subject to the application contains a Fish Habitat as well as two small clusters of Significant Woodland. Proposed Lot A does not does impact these environmental site features. Therefore the standard policies of the Rural Land Use Area apply.

2.5.2.3. The rural area is not the principal sector for residential development. Population growth is intended to be directed to the Urban Policy Area and Community Policy Area. The intent of this Official Plan however is not to prohibit residential development in the rural areas, but rather to provide a framework for appropriate country lot development which will support the objective of preserving the identity and character of the rural and urban areas.

2.5.2 6. Residential development in the Rural Policy Area shall generally proceed on the basis of private water and waste water systems.

Zoning By-Law

Section 3.20 of the Zoning By-Law, outlines the standards applicable to managing land use conflicts between certain agricultural uses including livestock facilities and sensitive land uses such as low density residential development.

Section 3.20 of Champlain Township’s Zoning By-Law requires that on lands rezoned to permit residential use, will comply with the MDS I using the requirements of the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affaires. Publication 853 is the reference manual for MDS 1 calculations. As the image in this section demonstrates, the nearest livestock facility (barn) is 195m from proposed Lot A. This type of livestock is horses. (Factor A) The design capacity and potential design capacity have both been calculated given the total lot size resulting in a Factor B of 291.49. The facility has solid manure storage and land use factor (the proposed encroaching land use) is deemed a Type A. Together the calculations result in a MDS distance separation

CONSENT APPLICATION B-016-2021 Page 3 of 5 11 requirement of 157m. The next two closest livestock facilities (barns) are 550m and 617m from the subject property. The proposed severance is deemed compatible with the MDS distance separation requirement.

CBO'S COMMENTS FOR LAND SEVERANCES March 17, 2021

Land Severance / B-088-2020 (roll 02 09 006 004 01100) Owners: Cameron Rodger Lot Desc.: Part Lots 5 & 6, Concession 4, 580 Pleasant Corner Road E.

Outstanding Work Order: None Zoning: RU-35 Severed lot (A): Conforming Retained lot (B): Conforming

General Comments:

There is an error in the calculation of the lot area. 82 m x 218 m does not make the lot 5 acres but 4.4 acres (and not 2.02 ha but 1.8 ha). This is an important factor because the applicant has clearly specified that the intent of this new lot is to be able to have a hobby farm, which needs a minimum of 5 acres or 2 ha

In Section 12, the applicant answered NO to not having any agricultural operation including housing livestock or stockyard within 500 m. Actually, the property located North-East of the N-E corner of the new lot will be within 200 m from the barn which has the potential to house animals (if vacant at this time).

The actual zoning is RU-35 which permits a Bed and Breakfast establishment in a second dwelling. This is not a standard zone for new lots and, in my opinion, should be rezoned to RU or RR.

No buildings are affected by the location of the new property lines.

The Building Department has no further comments.

PED- 04-2021

To: Mayor and Members of Council

From: Jennifer Laforest

Date: April 8th 2021

Subject: 2021 Temporary Patio Extension

______

BE IT RESOLVED THAT Council authorize Township staff to approve applications for the temporary extension for the 2021 season of existing licensed patios on private property, provided that the licencees submit a written request, together with a site plan showing dimensions of the extended patio and layout of tables and chairs to demonstrate patio capacity that conforms to the physical distancing requirements; and

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED THAT any request for a temporary patio extension on municipal property in 2021 be reviewed by Township staff and presented to Council for consideration and approval.

Reason for the Memo On June 12 2020, Ontario Government amended Regulation 719 of the Liquor Licence Act to support liquor sales licencees in temporarily extending their patios and providing additional flexibility for the location of tied houses until January 1, 2021. On December 9th 2020, the AGCO extended the temporary permissions for outdoor licenced premises until January 1st 2022. To be eligible, the licensees must ensure that they meet specific criteria including:

1. The physical extension of the premises is adjacent to: a) the premises to which the licence to sell liquor applies; or b) a dock to which the boat is attached and may include land adjacent to the dock; or c) the licensed premises under the “By the Glass” licence; 2. The municipality in which the premises is situated has indicated it does not object to an extension; 3. The licensee is able to demonstrate sufficient control over the physical extension of the premises; 4. There is no condition on the licence prohibiting a patio; 5. The capacity of any temporary extension, allows for at least 1.11 square metres per person; and

15 6. In the case of “By the Glass” licensees, the sale and service of the wine, beer and/or spirits manufactured by the manufacturer within the physical extension of the premises is primarily aimed at promoting the manufacturer’s product and either providing an enhanced tourist experience or fulfilling an educational purpose.

Administration contends that as a result of condition 2 of the AGCO’s December 2020 Bulletin, a Council resolution is required in order to direct Administration with regards to the issuance of similar temporary patio extensions for the 2021 patio season. Similar to 2020, Administration may issue the temporary permits on private lands internally. If a request is submitted for the use of public lands or roads, Administration will forward the request to Council for consideration.

A total of three such approvals were issued in 2020 for Vert Fourchette, the Windsor Tavern and Beau’s Brewery in Vankleek Hill. The Building and By-law Services Departments have expressed no objection with the continuation of the temporary outdoor patio extensions for the 2021 season, indicating that few to no complaints were received during the previous season.

Conclusion

Temporary patio extension program was well received by the food and beverage business community. The temporary approvals allow restaurant activity to continue in a manner which decreases risk to patrons, and staff while reducing the risk of community spread of COVID-19.

COVID-19 Vaccine Distribution Task Groupe d'étude sur la distribution des Force vaccins contre la COVID-19

25 Grosvenor Street 25, rue Grosvenor 11th Floor 11e étage Toronto ON M7A 1Y6 Toronto ON M7A 1Y6

[email protected] [email protected]

March 26, 2021

I sent my first situation report on December 12, 2020. That was just a few days before vaccines arrived for distribution. Here we are 15 weeks later and over 1,838,000 doses have been administered in Ontario. This is a remarkable achievement made possible by the hard work and leadership in the health sector, municipalities and our First Nations, Inuit and Metis communities.

Incredible progress has been made in the past two weeks. Since the provincial booking system was launched on March 15, 2021, more than 583,000 have been scheduled for first and second doses. The Provincial Vaccine Information Line and the Provincial Booking Line have received more than 205,000 calls. With limited wait times, the system is doing exactly what it was designed to – assist Ontarians in obtaining quick and easy access to a vaccine appointment.

On March 22, 2021 we were able to expand appointments through the booking system to individuals aged 75 and over, ahead of schedule.

In alignment with both the National Advisory Committee on Immunization's latest recommendation to expand the use of the AstraZeneca/COVISHIELD vaccine to people 18 years old and older and Ontario's Ethical Framework, participating pharmacies and primary care settings are now offering vaccination appointments to individuals turning 60 and older in 2021.

In addition to the 327 pharmacies already running, expansion is continuing with approximately 350 pharmacies to be brought on board across the province in the next two weeks and continuing up to 1,500 by the end of April.

Primary care providers will also play an integral role in the rollout. As of March 10, six public health units have received initial AstraZeneca allocation for doctors' offices. This includes Hamilton, Wellington-Dufferin-Guelph, Peterborough, Simcoe Muskoka District, Peel and Toronto. We will continue to expand access through primary care throughout the province as more vaccines are received.

The Premier tasked me with overseeing the development of Ontario’s vaccine rollout plan and associated infrastructure. I have been impressed each day with the leadership and dedication shown during my tenure as Chair of the Task Force and I am confident that the province is set to continue to administer more and more vaccines each day until all Ontarians who are eligible and want a vaccine receive one.

Sincerely,

General (Ret’d) Rick Hillier Chair of the COVID-19 Vaccine Distribution Task Force

37 Township of Champlain Memorandum To: Mayor & Members of Council

From: Kevin Tessier, Treasurer

Date: April 1, 2021

Re: MNP to Acquire Subset of Deloitte

Deloitte and MNP, two of Canada's largest professional services firms, announced on February 12, 2021 that MNP will acquire a subset of Deloitte's Canadian business, which includes offices, partners and team members, on or about March 1, 2021.

In total, approximately 70 Deloitte partners and senior leaders, nearly 900 team members and close to 25 offices will join MNP. The transition will take place in selected locations in BC, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Ontario and Quebec; all provinces where both firms have offices.

The deal will see MNP substantially increase its presence in Quebec, adding approximately 20 offices across the province, building on the firm's existing presence in Montreal and Laval. MNP will also add new locations in Ontario, in Windsor and Hawkesbury.

Hawkesbury Deloitte office has been acquired by MNP therefore, we must appoint MNP LLP as auditor for the Township of Champlain for fiscal years 2020, 2021 and 2022.

By-Law 2021-36 is brought forward for your approval.

Respectfully submitted,

Kevin Tessier, CPA, Treasurer

RECREATION REPORT NO. REC-03-21

To: Mayor and Members of Council

From: Lisa Burroughs Director of Parks and Recreation

Date: April 8th, 2021

Subject: By-Law 2021-22 – To enter into a lease agreement with Fisheries and Oceans Canada for for the Small Craft Harbour’s facility in L’Orignal (lease agreement renewal)

Recommendation:

BE IT RESOLVED THAT Recreation Report No. REC-03-21 dated April 8th, 2021 submitted by the Director of Parks and Recreation be received and that By-Law 2021-22 to authorize the entering into an Agreement with Fisheries and Oceans for the lease of the L’Orignal Marina be brought forward for adoption.

Background:

The Township of Champlain has renewed a lease agreement every five (5) years since 1997. The terms and conditions of the proposed lease agreement remain the same as in previous agreements.

A new five (5) year lease agreement (August 1st, 2021 to Jul 31st, 2026) with Fisheries and Oceans Canada (FOA) is required for the continued right to carry out the management and operation of federally owned land located at the Marina in L’Orignal. Our current lease will expire in July 2021 however for practicality reasons, FOA has agreed to renew our lease earlier such as to coincide with our sublease with Riverest Inc.

Even though we will be subleasing to a private operator, the municipality is required to maintain a head lease with the Federal Government and must provide a yearly certificate of insurance naming Her Majesty the Queen as additional insured.

Page 1 48

Analysis:

The proposed agreement will further secure our partnership with Fishereis and Oceans and in return secure our partnership with our sublessor.

Financial Implications:

The Federal Annual Reddendum remains at $500 plus taxes or 20% of the boat launch profits (whichever is greater). The private operator is required to pay the Township this fee on a yearly basis and the Township will be responsible to remit all sums to the Ministry.

Options/Alternatives:

Option 1: Council approves the recommendation to adopt By-Law 2021-22 and to enter into a 5-year lease agreement with Fisheries and Oceans Canada for the Small Craft Harbour’s facility in L’Orignal.

Option 2: Council could decide to terminate the Township’s partnership with Fisheries and Oceans Canada.

Conclusion:

The aforementioned lease agreement # OP-4666-H-2101 with Fisheries and Oceans Canada permits the Township to use and occupy the L’Orignal Marina and to carry out its management and operation.

Respectfully submitted,

______Lisa Burroughs Director of Parks and Recreation

RECREATION REPORT NO. REC 04-2021

To: Mayor and Members of Council

From: Lisa Burroughs, Director of Parks and Recreation

Date: April 8 2021

Subject: LED Lighting Retrofit for Vankleek Hill Community Centre/Arena

Recommendation:

BE IT RESOLVED THAT Recreation Report No. REC 04-2021, dated April 8th, 2021 regarding Conrad Lighting Solutions’ (CLS) proposal dated March 15, 2021, for the LED lighting retrofit program for the Vankleek Hill Community Centre/Arena be received and that the contract with CLS be awarded as per Section 5.23 of the Procurement Policy 2019-57.

Background:

Local Authority Services (LAS) was created in 1992 by the Association of Municipalities of Ontario (AMO). LAS is incorporated as a not-for-profit organization under the laws of Canada and is mandated to work with Ontario municipalities, as well as organizations from the broader public sector, to help realize lower costs, higher revenues, and enhanced staff capacity, through co-operative procurement efforts and innovative training, programs, and services.

After an exhaustive RFP process in 2015, LAS selected Conrad Lighting Solutions to be its manufacturing partner in offering LED lighting retrofit solution to Ontario municipalities.

The Township’s LED streetlight conversion program was done in partnerhip with LAS in 2016.

Council have already approved the LED lighting retrofit project at the Vankleek Hill Community Centre/Arena as a capital project for the Parks and Recreation Department under the 2021 budget exercise.

1

60

Analysis: The proposal provides actual cost for the replacement of existing lighting fixtures throughout the Vankleek Hill Community Center and Arena. Since there are currently no SaveOn Energy incentive rebates for exterior recreational facilities, we will not be retrofitting the lights at the softball diamond in Mill Street Park this year. It is understood with staff however that anytime a light in any of our parks must be changed, it will be switched to LED moving forward.

For the retrofit of the lighting system, the SaveOn Energy Incentive Application (where applicable) is to be completed by LAS/Conrad Lighting solutions. No work will start until Incentive Pre-Approval is obtained.

CLS to provide all necessary qualified electrical labor, LED fixtures, equipment and miscellaneous material to complete the work.

All old lamps and ballasts will be removed from the site and disposed/recycled as required. All existing fluorescent lamps will be recycled and a Certificate of Recycling will be provided. The site to remain clean from debris on a daily basis.

CLS/LAS to complete final submission for SaveOn Energy application.

Manufacturer warranties are provided for all products. The manufacturer’s base warranty is for 5 years and covers defects for product and product parts, found to be defective. CLS uses LAS approved/tendered suppliers for product.

Financial Implications:

Below is a Summary Table outlining the Energy Savings performance for the Township of Champlain LED Lighting retrofit.

Options/Alternatives:

Public Works Department – Township of Champlain MEMO to Council

April 8th, 2021

Members of the Council,

RE: Library Repairs Project Update

This memo is to provide Council an update on the Library Repairs Project.

EVB is finalizing the drawings for the structural portion of the library repairs which will include adding post and beam work from the 3rd floor going down to the basement. We also must break the concrete floor in the basement to poor new concrete peers to transfer the loading from the 3rd floor down which will be done by TWSP staff. The scope of work required for this part of the project is too extensive for the Township to complete internally. By going to tender we can ensure that this priority deficiency is completed to the required safety standards. It is important to note that we may be faced with challenges in this tendering process as many contractors are already booked up for this construction season. We understand that it is a priority to have the work done as quickly as possible to have this facility opened back up to the public and we will make sure that the tender contract reflects this requirement.

Please note that we are also waiting for comments from the architect regarding items noted in his report.

In the meantime, our Building maintenance Worker (Yvon) will be continuing to work on the other deficiencies such as preparing the basement floor area to install the concrete footing for the new posts and will also be able to assist the contractor that is awarded the beam repairs once that part is underway.

PUBLIC WORKS REPORT NO. PW-02-21

To: Mayor and Members of Council

From: James McMahon Director of Public Works

Date: April 8th, 2021

Subject: Award of Tender Contract No. PWT2021-03 (EVB Project No. 20013) for the Stephens and St-Denis Reconstruction Project

Recommendation:

BE IT RESOLVED THAT Public Works Report Nº PW-02-21, dated April 8th, 2021, regarding Tender Contract No. PWT2021-03 (EVB project No. 20013) for the Stephens and St-Denis Reconstruction Project be received and that Council approves the recommendation to award this contract to Cornwall Gravel Company Ltd.

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED THAT this contract be awarded based on Option 2 in the EVB Engineering memo dated March 31st, 2021 as follows;

Option #2 includes all works as designed except for the deletion of the watermain relining and the hydrant at #61 Stephens Street. Item #47 (replacement of water valves) was included, which results in a construction value of $1,448,782.75. Watermain lining could be done in the future however this work would require patching of the new roadway for access pits.

Prices exclude applicable taxes.

Background:

EVB Engineering (EVB) was retained by the Township to prepare the Tender for the Stephens and St-Denis Reconstruction Project which was approved as part of the 2021 capital budget, and this tender closed on March 31st, 2021.

Page 1 65 Analysis:

EVB has reviewed the tenders submitted for the above-mentioned project. The tender results are as follows (excluding HST).

1. Cornwall gravel Co. Ltd. $1,835,508.75 2. Hawkesbury Transport & Excavation Ltd. $1,947,222.50

The tender submitted by Cornwall Gravel Co. Ltd. was the low tender and their bid submission is complete, competitively priced and reflective of the scope of work.

Please see attached for a full copy of the memo dated March 31st, 2021 as prepared by EVB.

Financial Implications:

This tender was above the engineer’s Class “A” estimate of $1,595,512.50. A review of the item prices indicates that the underground work (replacement of water services, new storm sewers, new maintenance holes, new catch basins, replacement of water valves) was priced higher than EVB’s estimate, likely due to perceived risks by the bidders from the poor soils. Other items were for the most part very comparable.

The tendered amount is above the current budget for this project, and EVB offers the following options.

Option 1 Option 2 Option 3

Budget Amount (all works) (delete WM (delete WM relining, relining, hydrant) hydrant, St-Denis 750mm storm relining) Water/Sewer Portion $ 340,000.00 $ 668,161.00 $ 329,285.00 $ 329,285.00 Road Portion $ 1,000,000.00 $ 1,119,497.75 $ 1,119,497.75 $ 1,057,929.75 TOTAL $ 1,340,000.00 $ 1,787,658.75 $ 1,448,782.75 $ 1,387,214.75

Options/Alternatives:

Option 1: Award the entire project

This option includes the relining of the watermain, localized repairs to the sanitary and storm sewer as required, and full reconstruction of the roadway. Items #46 (adjustment of water valves) and #47 (replacement of water valves) would not be required because the lining work includes new valves, hence the construction value decreases to $1,787,658.75. This option extends the life of the existing transite watermain which we understand is in good condition however is nearing the end of its expected useful life.

Page 2 66 Option 2: Delete the watermain lining, hydrant at #61 Stephens

This option includes all works as designed except for the deletion of the watermain relining and of the hydrant at #61 Stephens St. Item #47 (replacement of water valves) was included, which results in a construction value of $1,448,782.75. Watermain lining could be done in the future however this work would require patching of the new roadway for access pits.

Option 3: Delete the watermain lining, hydrant at #61 Stephens, pipe lining on St- Denis.

This option is as for Option 2, with the deletion of the pipe lining of the 750mm storm sewer on St-Denis St. as the storm sewer is in reasonably good condition. Pipe lining of the storm sewer on Oswald St. is still included to address a broken/separated pipe. The resulting construction value would be $1,387,214.75. Lining the storm sewer on St-Denis St. could be done in the future and would not require patching of the roadway.

Please note that all options include a $60,000 contingency allowance and $136,900 in provisional items that may not be required or may not be entirely required.

Conclusion:

Option 2 as presented by EVB will allow the Township to proceed with this project, although slightly over budget it will address the most important deficiencies and improve our infrastructure.

Subject: Stephens Street & St Denis Street – Tender Evaluation

Dear Sir,

We have reviewed the tenders submitted for the above noted project. The official tender results are as follows (excluding HST). A tender evaluation spreadsheet and overall project cost estimate (updated per the tender results) are attached for your information:

Tenderer Total Tendered Amount (excluding HST)

1. Cornwall Gravel Co. Ltd. $1,835,508.75 2. Hawkesbury Transport & Excavation Ltd. $1,947,222.50

The tender submitted by Cornwall Gravel Co. Ltd. was the low tender, and after review of the tender submission, we find their tender submission to be complete. The tender also appears competitively priced and reflective of the scope of work. Note that the prices above include a $60,000 contingency.

This tender was above the engineer’s Class “A” estimate of $1,595,512.50. A review of item prices indicates that the underground work (replacement of water services, new storm sewers, new maintenance holes, new catch basins, replacement of water valves) was priced higher than EVB’s estimate, likely due to perceived risks by the bidders from the poor soils. Other items were for the most part very comparable.

We understand the tendered amount is above the current budget for this project, and offer the following options:

Option #1 – Award Entire Project

Option #1 includes the relining of the watermain, localized repairs to the sanitary & storm sewer as required, and full reconstruction of the roadway. Items #46 (adjustment of water valves) and #47 (replacement of water valves) would not be required because the lining work includes new valves, hence the construction value decreases to $1,787,658.75. This option extends the life of the existing transite watermain which we understand is in good condition however is nearing the end of its expected life.

Option #2 – Delete Watermain Lining, Hydrant @ #61 Stephens

Option #2 includes all works as designed except for the deletion of the watermain relining and of the hydrant at #61 Stephens Street. Item #47 (replacement of water valves) was included, which results in a construction value of $1,448,782.75. Watermain lining could be done in the future however this work would require patching of the new roadway for access pits.

EVB Engineering | EVBengineering.com Page 1 of 2 800 Second Street West Cornwall, ON K6J 1H6 68

Option #3 – Delete Watermain Lining, Hydrant @ #61 Stephens, Pipe Lining on St Denis Street

The third option considered is as for option #2, with the deletion of the pipe lining of the 750mm storm sewer on St Denis Street as the storm sewer is in reasonably good condition. Pipe lining of the storm sewer on Oswald Street is still included to address a broken/separated pipe. The resulting construction value would be $1,387,214.75. Lining of the storm sewer on St Denis Street could be done in the future and would not require patching of the roadway.

Contingency Allowance & Other Provisional Items

Please note that all options include a $60,000 contingency allowance and $136,900 in provisional items that may not be required or may not be entirely required, more specifically:

• Item #12P: Removal of 200mm dia. Storm Sewer Lead (extents of existing leads are unknown) • Item #15P: Abandon Storm Sewer (if required for existing catch basin leads) • Item #18/19P: Removal of All Existing Water Services (if existing are found to be in poor condition) • Item #24: Test Pit to Investigate Condition of Existing Water Service • Item #42/43P: New Water Services (if existing services are found to be in poor condition)

We recommend that either option be awarded to Cornwall Gravel Co. Ltd. as it is the lowest tender meeting all requirements. Please do not hesitate to contact the undersigned should you have any questions regarding the above documents. We will notify Cornwall Gravel Co. Ltd. on your behalf and we will prepare the contract documents once we receive your approval to proceed.

Yours Truly,

François Lafleur, P.Eng. Municipal Engineer cc. Josh Eamon, EVB Engineering

 Staff meeting via Zoom on March 17 with all daycare staff to review the changes in Child Care Act, reviewing safety measures, ongoing training (which is mandatory for ECE’s) and how to go about it during pandemic. UCPR joined meeting to discuss such online training and possible financial support for said training.  Discussions to plan out March break with survey to see if there is interest/feasible to open for that week (so far very little interest) as well as summer camps/summer services for school age children at L’Atelier (a lot of interest for summer camps) in conjunction with Parks & Rec.  Survey also sent out to measure interest in a shut down for two weeks in the summer (preschool and toddler only) as a trial to find out if this would help parents who wish to reserve their spot but would also like to have a break as well as the fact that our numbers usually go way down in August. 70% of parents were in favour (both daycares) therefore daycare will be closed from August 2nd to the 13th for two weeks.  The St-Jude drop in portion of the service is attracting new families. 6 new children have been enrolled. So we have a total of 11 children at Centre éducatif Champlain Learning Centre with 5 full-time permanent and 6 who have enrolled to use services as a pay as you go service. We’ve done a lot of promotion at the school. This service requires enrollment with all necessary forms filled out. Then, parents can call to see if there is a spot available for the day requiring service. If there’s a spot, it is reserved (like a restaurant reservation if you will).  Friday, March 26th the St-Jude Before & After program was shut down for the day as there were possible cases at the school with some children attending program having close contact. The case was reported late Thursday and since director couldn’t get in touch with EOHU, it was closed as a precautionary measure. Parents were advised and in agreement. Services resumed on Monday March 29 after consultation with EOHU.

M. James McMahon Township of Champlain 948 Est. Ch. Pleasant Corner Rd Est Vankleek Hill, Ontario K0B 1R0 RE: Drainage Superintendent Duties

Dear M. McMahon General Drainage concern

Please find enclosed a brief description of work performed for the period from March 1st to March 30th, 2021. General drainage concerns

1) I assisted to file the Transfer Payment Application Grant for maintenance work completed in 2020 on municipal drains. Grants are only eligible at OMAFRA for agricultural land can only be applied for work that cost more than $500 during the year.

2) I assisted to prepare the 2021 drainage By-laws for work performed in 2020 to be presented at the municipal Council in order to levy the costs to landowners and road authorities in the respective watersheds.

3) I inspected the Smith municipal drain as the development project as installed a new crossing in the drain. I asked the developer to install straw bales and silt fences at the ends of each side ditch connecting to the municipal drain at each end of the new crossing before water would flow towards the drain and bring sediments causing accumulation and restriction. The developer went back to do as asked. This measure is only temporary until the water recedes and stone protection can be installed on geotextile to keep slopes stable.

4) I had discussions with two representatives from Agriculture Canada looking at sites to perform studies on municipal drains with different conditions. They have been doing studies in the municipality of the Nation for many years, with agreements with farm landowners in the St-Albert area.

82

I have been involved in the past few years, and have seen the benefits to farm landowners in regards to agricultural drainage. Scientists are bringing different aspect of agriculture practices that the owners can benefit with higher yields and advanced technology used can also give landowners with different type of soils strategies to crop the land. I had a discussion with McMahon to see if there would be interest to give landowners an opportunity to discuss these studies on the Mill Creek and connecting secondary municipal drains in the area. They saw a great watershed to make studies having all conditions they were looking for in one area. M. McMahon asked if the municipality could be provided with more information as he would like to present this to the municipal council to get feedback. This issue will be updated as we get more details.

Hoping the above is to your satisfaction, I remain. Yours truly,

Eric Leroux Drainage Superintendent

Community Impact Stories: The following comments are from the local Homeschoolers Facebook Page where the library shares resources and activities to help parents with schooling.

84 "Alicia is amazing! She’s been helping our family with the curbside pick-ups since... I don’t remember how long. I’ve lost track of time. Library pickup day is magical in our family. Sometimes my kids have chosen topics, sometimes we ask her to surprise us. She’s a wonderful person, always helping us look for the next series, books, and activities based on our interests.” " Thank you so much for keeping us updated on all of the awesome resources the library has to offer.” J. Holla

On March 11th Anne had a Zoom meeting with one of our patrons who gets help every Thursday morning as part of the ‘Senior Tech Help’ initiative. She wanted to transfer a file from one of her emails to a USB. Anne went through the necessary steps by sharing her screen on the Zoom call. Our patron was successful and sent this email.

“I successfully transferred the 'revised chapter' to the u.s.b. I know it is no big deal, but it has made me feel very competent!” J. Charbonneau

It is very satisfying to know that our library programs can make an impact.

Adult Programming:

• Our Non-fiction book club met via Zoom 7 members attended in February. • Five people attended our English Book club and 7 people attended our French book club. • We had 7 adults request craft kits. • Our Senior Tech Hub had 15 participants; they covered a variety of topics.

Children and Teen Programming (all programs are virtual on Facebook, Zoom)

• Our new coding club Scratch had 13 participants. They meet three times in March. • Alicia continues Facebook Live storytimes. • 19 kids registered for Make and Take kits. They pick up all materials to create the crafts at home. This month they made Leprechaun Traps and mini projectors. • We set a challenge for kids in March to send a photo reading in a secret location where a leprechaun might hide! The submitted photos were great! The Brandrick family won the contest. We also ran a closing contest for World Coloring Day. The winner received a coloring book and crayon pack. • The Tween DIY had 8 kids participate.

Kanopy: Twenty-nine movies were streamed in February, and two families logged into Kanopy Kids.

Staff Training: Cynthia took part in a webinar offered by SOLS on Rethinking How We Measure the Impact of Libraries.

Library News; Cynthia completed the Annual Survey for the Ministry of Heritage, Sport, Tourism and Culture Industries. This survey is for the Provincial Library Operating Grant.

Our New Website is up and running! We hope this will be much more user friendly for our patrons. It will also meet the AODA accessibility guidelines. Check it out @ www.bc-cl.ca

85

Staff Meetings: We held an in-person staff meeting March 3rd. Cynthia also attended a council meeting on March 11th and a strategic Planning session March 30th. Cynthia took part in a Zoom conference with libraries in Eastern Ontario on March 10th.

Media: We now have 705 followers on Facebook. We have 346 followers on Instagram. Our events are published in the Review. We submit weekly press releases to local newspapers, and publish our events on the Champlain Township website. Information is sent to both CAPRAC and the VKH BIA. Part of our Seniors grant pays for publicity and we are advertising our Senior Tech Hub weekly in the Review.

Friends of the Library: The FOL met on Mar 10th to discuss fundraising ideas. They discussed several possibilities including a silent auction, an ongoing bottle drive, book sale at the Farmer’s Market (when outside) and a Read and Sip event at the local Vinyard.

Public works will then schedule the work so that the library can safely re-open asap.

SCHEDULE “C” PROJECT

The Municipal Fire Protection Grant has been established to provide critical support to municipalities in 2020-21 to offset costs and potential barriers for issues stemming from the COVID-19 pandemic. Such issues include access to training, and equipment or other critical upgrades that are needed at the local level to support virtual inspections.

Ontario’s fire departments vary in size and capacity and they all serve different communities that each present different levels of risk. There is a significant cost to ensure that every department has skilled first responders who are adequately trained and equipped to meet the needs of their community.

Funding could represent the difference in allowing fire departments to train more staff, purchase much needed equipment to allow them to adapt and respond to COVID-19 related risks in their communities in a way that ensures both community and personnel safety.

The use of the one-time 2020-21 Municipal Fire Protection Grant will focus on the needs of municipal fire departments to ensure community safety with a focus on issues that have presented due to the COVID-19 pandemic, including:

 Training to offset the pressures in training as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.  Specialty training to respond to the dynamics of the COVID-19 pandemic and the need to ensure fire safety in their communities such as virtual inspections.  Small improvements to fire department infrastructure, such as accessing high speed internet to support training and virtual inspections.

The fire service has expressed concerns with training and fire code compliance since the start of the pandemic. Some of these concerns include critical inspections being delayed or impacted given the apprehension with entering premises. Similarly, training has been impacted given that fire services have been responding to challenges associated with the pandemic (staffing shortages, increased calls for service, etc.). Many departments continued training online as the Office of the Fire Marshal enhanced its online course availability at the start of the pandemic. This emergency COVID relief funding provides support for increased access to training, support for fire code compliance inspections through virtual inspections, and equipment or other critical upgrades that are needed at the local level to support community risks during the pandemic and the switch to virtual training and inspections.

RE: Minister’s Zoning Orders (MZO’s)

Please be advised that the Council of the Municipality of Grey Highlands, at its meeting held March 3, 2021, passed the following resolution:

2021-159 Moved by Cathy Little - Aakash Desai

Whereas the COVID-19 crisis has shown the residents of the Municipality of Grey Highlands how important natural lands, farmland and water sources in and around Grey Highlands are to their health and well-being and their economic livelihood; and

Whereas residents are rightly concerned with addressing the economic challenges posed by the COVID-19 crisis and are looking at new types of development that create new homes and businesses, jobs and economic activity in ways that are cost effective to residents and municipalities; and

Whereas there is development that creates jobs, new affordable homes and economic activity while protecting and preserving existing natural areas, farmland and water sources and meeting the needs of residents and municipalities; and

Whereas Minister’s Zoning Orders (MZOs) are a tool that should not be used to fast-track development proposals, bypass important public consultations and override laws and policies designed to protect the environment; and

Whereas in 2020 the Ontario government has issued over 30 MZOs to fast-track development, many of them in natural areas, farmland and/or important water sources; and

Whereas Ontario residents would benefit financially, physically and socially from development that does not take place in natural areas, farmland, and water sources and from permanently protecting these lands instead;

Now therefore be it resolved that Council commit to not requesting a MZO to fast-track development on natural areas, farmland and/or water resources because they bypass public consultations and

existing policies and procedures designed to promote environmental protection; and

That Council request the Premier and Minister of Municipal Affairs and Housing to stop using Minister’s Zoning Orders and urges the Provincial Government to move forward with COVID recovery actions that promote development that simultaneously protects natural areas, farmland and water sources while creating affordable homes and new jobs and in a way that is cost effective to residents and the municipality; and

That Council endorse the efforts of Blue Mountain Watershed Trust and the Ontario Greenbelt Alliance to bring more natural areas, farmland and water sources under the protection of laws like the Greenbelt Act; and

That this resolution be circulated to Premier Ford; Minister Clark, Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing; MPP Bill Walker; and Ontario municipalities. CARRIED.

We hope you and your loved ones are well. Thank you for all your efforts over the past months to help get us through this terrible COVID-19 crisis.

The COVID-19 pandemic has shown us how important natural spaces are to our wellbeing. We rely on these areas for our mental and physical health, and on farmland for the local food that keeps us healthy and our farmers employed. These lands are also critical to conserving biodiversity and enhancing community resilience to the impacts of climate change.

Some local governments in the GTA have ignored this reality and have tried to get permission to have protected Greenbelt land used for sprawl-style development. As well, some are working to secure Minister’s Zoning Orders to bypass important environmental protections and local planning rules. Others, however, have expressed growing concerns about the provincial government’s inappropriate use of this tool and we hope this number grows.

In addition, just recently, the Province has passed regressive changes to the Conservation Authorities Act to remove powers to protect natural areas and to protect us from the impacts of floods and toxic soil dumping.

As a result we are making two specific requests:

Please resist the use of MZOs and tell the Province you oppose the recent changes to the Conservation Authorities Act because both of these actions fast-track sprawl-style development, sidestep public consultation and override policies intended to protect Ontario’s natural areas, water sources and farmland. Please also consider asking the province to add farmland and natural areas in your region to the Greenbelt to increase their protection.

Please pass a Council resolution that includes the above points and forward it to the Minister of Municipal Affairs and Housing.

As an environmental advocacy group established for over 25 years, we are calling on you and the entire Council to commit to resisting the misuse of MZOs, oppose implementation of the changes to the Conservation Authorities Act, stop sprawl and seek growth of the Greenbelt as part of a Green and Just

Motion respecting Homelessness, Mental Health and Addiction in Niagara Minute Item No. 5.1

Regional Council, at its meeting held on February 25, 2021, approved the following resolution from its Public Health and Social Services Committee: WHEREAS Niagara Region prides itself as being a caring and compassionate community that continually strives to be a place where people want to live, work and play; WHEREAS providing access to safe, adequate and affordable housing for everyone is fundamental to achieving that goal; WHEREAS Niagara Region acknowledges that mental health, mental illness, addiction and homelessness, while important issues, are not homogenous, interchangeable or consistently interconnected, and doing so may over simplify exceptionally complex issues that require targeted policy solutions and intervention; WHEREAS Niagara Region’s 10-year Housing and Homelessness Action Plan (HHAP), A Home For All, outlines the Region’s vision, challenges, and the actions required to achieve its goals; WHEREAS Niagara Region has embarked on an ambitious effort to end chronic homelessness through participation in the national Built for Zero campaign; WHEREAS Regional Council formally adopted Mental Health and Wellbeing (2.2) and Addressing Affordable Housing Needs (2.3) as strategic priorities for the current term of our Council; WHEREAS a recent KPMG report commissioned by Niagara Region indicated that Council invests more levy funding than its peers into homelessness, demonstrating a steadfast commitment to addressing the issue; WHEREAS Niagara Region acknowledges that people living in shelters are part of the crisis and not the solution; WHEREAS Niagara Region has two planned housing projects that would directly address those in Niagara who experience chronic homelessness;

166 Motion Respecting Homelessness, Mental Health and Addiction in Niagara March 4, 2021 Page 2

WHEREAS the implementation plan for Council’s strategic objectives states that staff will identify gaps within the mental health system to increase the functionality and collaboration within it; WHEREAS the same implementation plan directed staff to partner with Ontario Health (formally the LHIN) to review the local landscape to identify opportunities, including new investment; WHEREAS the treatment and supports for mental illness, addiction, and homelessness are predominantly funded and directed by the Province; WHEREAS the success of the Region’s Housing and Homelessness Action Plan is dependent on a commitment of sustained and increased funding (both operational and capital) from all levels of government to address the issues of housing insecurity and homelessness in Niagara; and WHEREAS the needs of the community far outweigh Niagara Region’s available resources and funding required to effectively address these issues, and the support of both the Provincial and Federal governments are needed to meet these needs. NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED THAT: 1. That Niagara Region Council officially ACKNOWLEDGE that a significant crisis exists in Niagara in regard to the prevalence of chronic homelessness and the lack of affordable housing that far surpasses the Region’s ability to meet the vision dictated in its 10-year Housing and Homelessness Action Plan (HHAP); 2. That the Regional Chair BE DIRECTED to send advocacy letters directly to the appropriate Federal and Provincial ministries outlining Niagara’s current situation and requesting additional funding be provided to ensure Niagara can meet the vision outlined in its housing action plan; 3. That the Regional Chair BE DIRECTED to advocate to the Minister of Municipal Affairs and Housing and the Minister of Families, Children and Social Development for the required operational funding for the planned supportive and bridge housing initiatives; 4. That Regional staff BE DIRECTED, in alignment with the planned review of Council’s strategic priorities, to produce a report specifically highlighting the progress being made and critical gaps in regard to services related to mental health, addictions and wellbeing; 5. That Regional staff BE DIRECTED to continue providing Regional Council updates on the HHAP and Built for Zero initiatives; 6. That Regional staff BE DIRECTED to request an update from the Overdose Prevention and Education Network of Niagara (OPENN) regarding the current status of the actions being taken to address addiction related issues in Niagara; and

Dear Minister Bibeau

Our agricultural advisory board (AAB) who represents the agricultural sector in Norfolk County, Ontario is very concerned about the federal government’s current carbon pricing policies. It is our hope that you consider our concernsand move to exempt all primary agriculture producers from current and future carbon taxes.

Carbon tax remains as a major cost of production for producers in Norfolk County. Although some farm fuel purchasesare exempt, it is selective and does not meet the needs of the entire agriculture industry. Currently crop drying, heating/cooling of livestock barns and cooling of perishable commodities are still subject to full carbon taxes.

Currently there are no replacements for fossil fuels in agricultural production. As a result, carbon tax policies are notappropriate for the agricultural sector and only decrease farm margins.

Norfolk County which is known as Ontario‘s garden is home to one of the country‘s largest diversity of crop production. In addition to the extensive vegetable, fruit and grain production it boasts some of the highest ecological diverse natural habitats, plants and animals in Canada. There is approximately 25% tree cover in the county which is the highest percentage of forested land in Southwestern Ontario. Norfolk County It is also home to over 10,000 acres of woodlots and wetlands protected under Long Point Conservation Authority. In addition to the natural woodlots and wetlands there is also extensive fruit production with 2000 acres of apples and 1000 acres of sour cherries. A mature orchard can fix upwards of 18 mt of C02 annually. The adoption of production practices to protect the soil and environment are advanced in Norfolk County. There has been a wide implementation of cover cropping, planting green and reduced tillage practices all of which sequester carbon. Additional farming practices of 4R nutrient management coupled with precision technology ensure that appropriate nutrients are applied at the right time, place and rate. In many cases sensitive water sources around ponds and wetlands are planted with buffer strips and soil erosion control measures of grassed waterways and windbreaks arealso common practices. ALUS (alternative land use) programs have been embraced across the county, taking unproductive land out of production, and returning it to natural native grass plantings, trees and constructed wetlands. Currently there are 1148 active projects with 189 producers covering 1573 acres in Norfolk County managed under the ALUS program.

171 The agriculture industry has made great strides to protect the environment and will continue to improve production practices that reduces the carbon footprint in food production.

The AAB board believes that all on farm fuels used in agricultural production should be exempt from carbon tax. This should include natural gas, propane, gas, and diesel. We strongly urge the government to be consistent with a sectorwide exemption to current carbon tax policies.

Sincerely,

Dustin Zamecnik Chair of Norfolk County Agriculture Advisory Board

Dear Mr. Clark:

This is to advise that City Council, at a meeting held on March 22, 2021, passed the following resolution regarding Planning Act Timelines:

“WHEREAS the City of Kitchener, like many Ontario municipalities, is experiencing significant growth; and,

WHEREAS the City of Kitchener has conducted extensive work through its Development Services Review to remove red tape and improve public engagement; and,

WHEREAS the Province of Ontario's Planning Act provides a legislative framework for processing development applications including established timeframes which permit applicants to appeal to the Local Planning Appeal Tribunal if a Council fails to make a decision within a prescribed timeline; and,

WHEREAS the passing of Bill 108 in 2019 reduced the timelines for processing development applications before they can be appealed to the Local Planning Appeals Tribunal (LPAT) for a non-decision from those outlined in Bill 139, the Building Better Communities and Conserving Watersheds Act, 2017 as follows:

• from seven months (210 days) to four months (120 days) for Official Plan amendments; • from five months (150 days) to three months (90 days) for Zoning By- law amendments; and • from six months (180 days) to four months (120 days) for Plans of Subdivision; and

173

WHEREAS the shortened timeframes create unreasonable pressures on municipalities, even outside the context of navigating city business in a global pandemic, and result in reduced opportunities for meaningful public engagement and limited time for the public to provide written submissions on a development application;

THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that Kitchener City Council urge the Province of Ontario to review and reconsider the current timelines established for review of Planning Act applications before an appeal is permitted to the Local Planning Appeals Tribunal and to return to the timelines that were in effect under Bill 139, the Building Better Communities and Conserving Watersheds Act, 2017;

Dear Head of Council:

I am writing to provide you with an update on the Ontario Cannabis Legalization Implementation Fund (OCLIF).

As you know, OCLIF was announced in 2018 as a $40 million initiative over two years to help municipalities with the implementation costs of recreational cannabis legalization. The funding under the program has now been fully disbursed.

The province also committed that, if Ontario’s portion of the federal excise duty on recreational cannabis over the first two years of legalization exceeds $100 million, the province will provide 50 per cent of the surplus to those municipalities that did not opt out as of January 22, 2019.

I am pleased to be able to share a final update on this commitment. Ontario’s portion of the federal excise duty for the period of October 17, 2018 to October 16, 2020 has exceeded $100 million, meaning we will share 50 per cent of the surplus excise duties (the amount greater than $100 million), $3,991,090, with eligible municipalities.

The government will distribute this final payment this month as follows:

• Funding will be provided on a per household basis to municipalities that did not opt-out of hosting retail stores as of January 22, 2019, adjusted so that each recipient municipality will receive at least $5,000. • Lower-tier and upper-tier municipalities will receive funding based on 50% of their households. Upper-tier municipalities will receive funding in relation to opt-out decisions made by the lower-tier municipality. If a lower tier municipality opted- out, the upper tier municipality will not receive funding on a per household basis in relation to that municipality.

The government is providing this funding now to municipalities in a manner similar to past payments. This means municipalities will have the funds on hand to use for the implementation costs the fund was designed to support.

…/2 180 -2-

The Deputy Minister of Finance will write shortly to the Treasurers of recipient municipalities with details about the administration of this funding and attach each municipality’s specific allocation notice. Payments will also be processed at that time.

Municipalities have been important partners in the successful implementation of the federal government’s legalization of recreational cannabis. We look forward to continuing to work together in this regard.

Sincerely,

Madame la Présidente du conseil, Monsieur le Président du conseil,

Je vous écris pour faire le point sur le Fonds ontarien de préparation à la légalisation du cannabis (FOPLC).

Comme vous le savez, le FOPLC est une initiative dotée de 40 millions de dollars sur deux ans qui a été annoncée en 2018 en vue d’aider les municipalités à assumer les coûts de mise en œuvre liés à la légalisation du cannabis récréatif. Le Fonds a été épuisé.

La province a aussi pris l’engagement suivant : si la part de l’Ontario du droit d’accise fédéral sur le cannabis récréatif au cours des deux premières années suivant la légalisation dépassait 100 millions de dollars, elle verserait 50 % de l’excédent aux municipalités n’ayant pas interdit les magasins de vente au détail de cannabis sur leur territoire en date du 22 janvier 2019.

Je suis heureux de faire le point une dernière fois en ce qui a trait à cet engagement. La part du droit d’accise fédéral revenant à l’Ontario pour la période du 17 octobre 2018 au 16 octobre 2020 a dépassé les 100 millions de dollars. Par conséquent, nous partagerons 50 % de l’excédent (le montant supérieur à 100 millions de dollars), soit 3 991 090 $, avec les municipalités admissibles.

Le gouvernement répartira ce dernier paiement ce mois-ci de la façon suivante :

• Les municipalités qui n’ont pas interdit la présence de magasins de vente au détail de cannabis en date du 22 janvier 2019 recevront un paiement en fonction du nombre de ménages, redressé afin que chaque municipalité reçoive au moins 5 000 $. • Les fonds accordés aux municipalités de palier inférieur et supérieur seront calculés en fonction de 50 % du nombre de ménages. Les municipalités de palier supérieur recevront des fonds selon que la municipalité de palier inférieur aura décidé ou non d’interdire les magasins de vente au détail de cannabis sur son territoire. Si une municipalité de palier inférieur a choisi d’interdire ces magasins,

la municipalité de palier supérieur ne recevra pas le montant du financement fondé sur le nombre de ménages pour cette municipalité.

Le gouvernement fournit ce financement aux municipalités dès maintenant selon un modèle similaire à celui qui a été utilisé pour les paiements précédents. Ainsi, les municipalités auront en main de l’argent pour assumer les coûts de mise en œuvre pour lesquels le Fonds a été conçu.

Le sous-ministre des Finances communiquera sous peu aux trésorières et aux trésoriers des municipalités bénéficiaires les détails concernant l’administration de ces fonds en précisant le montant attribué à chaque municipalité. Les paiements seront traités à ce moment-là.

Les municipalités ont joué un rôle important dans la mise en œuvre efficace de la légalisation du cannabis récréatif par le gouvernement fédéral. Nous nous réjouissons à la perspective de continuer notre collaboration avec elles.

Veuillez agréer mes sincères salutations.

Le ministre des Finances et président du Conseil du Trésor,

Open Letter to ORFA Members and Industry Employers

Ontario Recreation Facilities Association Inc. Fri, Mar 19, 2021 at 12:49 PM Reply-To: "Ontario Recreation Facilities Association Inc." To: Alison Collard

Dear Alison Collard, Township of Champlain

On behalf of Cathy Seguin, President of the Ontario Recreation Facilities Association (ORFA), I would respectfully request consideration for the following “Open Letter” to be added as correspondence to the next Mayor and Council agenda for awareness.

As we are all aware, the COVID-19 pandemic has created unprecedented challenges for all communities and has required a flexible and responsive approach. Over the past year, we have witnessed the vital role that recreation facility professionals, and recreation infrastructure (indoor and outdoor), play in our communities. While following public health guidance, providing even limited access to recreation has allowed our community residents to stay connected, support their physical and mental health, and hopefully encourages them to view a more positive, post-pandemic future.

Thank you for your consideration of this request.

Best wishes,

John Milton Chief Administrative Officer

As we are aware, the pandemic has created unprecedented challenges for all communities and has required a flexible and responsive approach. Over the past year, we have witnessed the vital role that recreation facility professionals, and recreation infrastructure (indoor and outdoor), play in our communities.

You, and your team members, are the reason why great community recreation exists. I hope you will join me in recognizing the recreation facility professionals within your 184 https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0?ik=43e3ba7566&view=pt&search=all&permmsgid=msg-f%3A1694679746926947981&simpl=msg-f%3A16946797469… 1/2 19/03/2021 Champlain Township Mail - Open Letter to ORFA Members and Industry Employers
