Background. In 2015 the Municipality of Brighton Council passed resolutions to provide sewage screening as well as a bio-cord system to address ammonia exceedances at the Municipal Water Pollution Control Plant (WPCP). A Conventional Activated Sludge Plant (CAS) was also presented as a solution to ammonia exceedances but withdrawn by the mover as some members of Council had concerns that this was presupposing a solution to the Environmental Assessment (EA) which was being considered at that time. Although passed by a resolution of Council, neither screening nor a bio-cord system was ever installed at the Municipal WPCP and exceedances continue unabated. To-date, 36 cases of exceedances have been recorded from 2014 to 2017. These represent a 1.8 million dollar exposure to the municipality under the OWRC Act at the minimum fine level of 50K per count. The EA preferred solution was not supported by Council. At the 2nd October2017 Council Meeting, a resolution was tabled which read in part, “Moved by Councillor McMurray, seconded by Councillor Martinello that Council approve in principal a plan to build a conventional Activated Sludge plant (CAS) to process Municipality of Brighton sewage.”
December 04, 2017 Municipality of Brighton PagePage 16 7 of of 151 12 Council Meeting It was subsequently passed by Council on a recorded vote of 4 to 3. Efforts to move forward on this resolution have met roadblocks. Notice of Motion. Moved by Councillor McMurray Seconded by Councillor Martinello that Council direct staff to put forward a, “Request for Information” to suppliers of CAS facilities via both local and Industrial communication channels/publications which would request suppliers to provide general information on CAS plants within their capability, Information specifically relevant for the Municipality of Brighton (User Pop. 6500). Other Information parameters would include: Estimated costs, estimated plant footprint, Time estimate to build/install, Plant Capacity for projected population of 10,000y and capability for further expansion. In addition, a historical record of the firm in building CAS plants, particularly, locations within Ontario with associated costs is requested (if available).
Resolution No. 2017-906 Moved by Councillor John Martinello Seconded by Councillor Brian Ostrander That Council directs staff to direct the sewage plant EA consultant, JL Richards & Associates Ltd., to immediately resume a Class B Environmental Assessment; and
That information be provided for the construction of a mechanical, conventional activated sludge plant. Such plant will be constructed to meet current requirements with adequate land and to allow for expansion to requirements for 50 years.

Motion withdrawn by Mover Councillor Roger McMurray Motion
Moved by Councillor Roger McMurray seconded by Councillor John Martinello
The need for an immediate solution to the ammonia exceedance problems at the Municipality of Brighton Water Pollution Control Plant was expressed during discussion of wastewater at the last Council Meeting.
December 04, 2017 Municipality of Brighton PagePage 17 8 of of 151 12 Council Meeting That suppliers of portable sewage treatment facilities such as Filterboxx be considered and staff be directed to o provide availability, cost and feasibility estimates for the provision of portable temporary waste water treatment facilities until a final decision is made to acquire permanent facilities. As winter approaches it is unlikely that weather will permit installation of any permanent option for ammonia removal. I understand that portable equipment can be leased to assist in ammonia removal consisting of tractor trailer based units which can be quickly assembled to process municipal sewage.

Subject/Title: Proposed Closure of Lawson Settlement Road at the Rail Crossing
Recommendation: That Council receives the Report dated December 18, 2017 regarding Proposed Closure of Lawson Settlement Road at the rail as information. That Staff report back with recommendations once agency and public comments and submissions have been received and reviewed. Origin: The Municipality has been asked to upgrade this rail crossing as the crossing is geometrically difficult for vehicles and, from a railway crossing signal point of view, is deficient under the current railway safety standards. This is in addition to work already completed in the past few years and staff believes that further upgrades will be required in coming years related to the geometric arrangements between the crossing, Lawson Settlement Road and County Rd 2.
Background/Purpose: Lawson Settlement Crossing was established nearly 100 years ago. Therailway describes the Lawson Settlement crossing as being located at Mile 238.97 Kingston Sub CN & Mile 109.66 Belleville Sub CP. The crossing is located between two adjacent crossings which are in close proximity to the Lawson Settlement crossing. A level crossing at Stoney Point Road located 1.3 km to the east of the Lawson Settlement Road crossing and the Boe’s Road underpass is located 1.3 km to the west of the Lawson Settlement Road crossing.
Page 31 of 151 The most recent Board Order (agreement between rail authority and road owner) was ratified around 1967. The Board Order obligates the Municipality to pay for 100% of all maintenance costs at this crossing. The crossing is comprised of three tracks. Two sets of tracks are owned by Canadian National Railway with the other being owned by Canadian Pacific Railway. It is estimated approximately 70 trains per day with operating speeds between 60 – 100 mph. Lawson Settlement Road is a two-lane, two-way, local rural roadway connecting County Road 2 to Stoney Point Road. The road has a north-south orientation where it crosses the CN and CP tracks just south of County Road 2. To the south of the CP tracks, the road has an east-west orientation and runs parallel to the tracks and County Road 2, providing access to Lawson Road and Stoney Point Road. Stoney Point Road also crosses the CN and CP tracks as an access to County Road 2. The Stoney Point Road crossing is approximately 1.3 km east of the rail crossing at Lawson Settlement Road. Surrounding land use is mixed agricultural and mostly vacant. Lawson Settlement Road from the rail crossing to Lawson Road is encompassed by two properties, a residential building and a poultry farm and from Lawson Road to Stoney Point Road has approximately 14 residential properties. Lawson Road from Lawson Settlement Road to Country Road 64 has approximately 25 residences along this length. 2004 Grade Crossing Safety Assessment: In 2004, the Municipality of Brighton, retained the services of HDR iTrans to conduct a grade crossing safety assessment of the crossing at Lawson Settlement Road. This report was completed in 2005 and recommended the implementation of safety measures at the crossing, this included: • Repair/replace flangeways at CP crossing • Resurface / reconstruct road on approach and through both CN and CP tracks • Improvements to geometrics, signage, pavement markings and sightlines • Improvements to grade crossing warning systems and gates These improvements were completed around 2015 at a total cost of approximately $139,200to the Municipality. In 2016, further improvements to the crossing were completed at an approximate cost to the Municipality of $30,000. As an alternative to the long-term treatments recommended in the study, the study states the Municipality of Brighton, together with the two railway companies, may wish to consider closing the crossing at Lawson Settlement Road. The report further states, closing Lawson Settlement Road at the railway would not significantly inconvenience motorists currently using the access, given that motorists may travel into the Brighton township via Stoney Point Road which is located only 1.3km to the east of this crossing or via County Road 64 to the south. Trucks are prohibited from using the crossing at Lawson Settlement Road. Adjacent Railway Crossing (Stoney Point Road): Stoney Point Rail Crossing has been implemented with traffic geometric safety Transport Canada and CN/CP Rail have expressed as a desired feature required at the
Page 32 of 151 Lawson Settlement Crossing if it was elected to keep the crossing open. These geometric requirements include: • Eastbound right-turn traffic – right turn auxiliary lane with 30m storage and a 50m taper • Westbound left-turn traffic – left-turn auxiliary lane with 30m storage length and 100m taper • Northbound Stoney Point traffic turning right (eastbound) is implemented with a 90m acceleration lane with an additional 150m taper length Adjacent Railway Crossing (Boes Road): Located approximately 1.3 km to the west of road, the Boes Road underpass is an additional alternate route. This grade separated crossing allows eastbound traffic as a possible route prior to the Lawson Settlement crossing. The structures only allow a single lane to pass (with yielding to oncoming traffic) and is undersized, which means large vehicles are able to use this alternate. However, residential traffic and smaller commercial vehicles are permitted to use the crossing.
Analysis/Comments: Staff has determined only two possible alternatives to consider: keep Lawson Settlement Crossing open to traffic and proceed with all necessary traffic and rail safety improvements as required; or, close Lawson Settlement Road at the crossing. The current upgrade to each rail crossing appears to be 25% of the total of $73,000 per crossing which amounts to $36,500 this year in addition to the regular maintenance charges which amount to about $10,000 per year. It is anticipated that future work required will be turning and storage lanes on County road 2 which will further increase these costs. In addition, maintenance costs are expected to continually rise in the coming years. The one-time cost to create a cul-de-sac is estimated to be $15,000. The further benefit of closing this crossing is that the railway can use the materials to upgrade the adjacent crossing at Stoney point road at no charge to the Municipality. Alternative 1 – Keep the Road and Crossing Open to Traffic It has been generally concluded and accepted by staff, the impact of closing Lawson Settlement Road at the crossing has minor associated impacts on traffic and residents. This is primarily due to the close proximity of available crossing alternatives of Boe’s Road underpass (1.3 km to the west of the crossing) and Stoney Point crossing (1.3 km to the east of the Lawson Settlement crossing and the few residents on Lawson Settlement Road west of Lawson Road. As stated, the costs associated with the crossing are fully borne by the Municipality. These costs are determined by operational costs already realized by the Municipality as well as capital safety improvements required as recommended/suggested by Transport Canada. Transport Canada has recommended significant safety improvements to the crossing hardware and signage to better warn drivers in both directions of the crossing being closed for passing train(s) and have expressed geometric improvements on County Road 2 similar to the geometrics of the crossing at Stoney Point. Financial Implications The table below summarizes the improvements and financial impacts, as follows:
Page 33 of 151 Category Description Total Costs Operational Total annual costs of signal operations $ 11,178 Capital Costs Immediate Improvements recommended $ 73,000 Geometric Additional left turn and right turn $ 250,000 Improvements improvements (not including any property that may be required if road width is not sufficient) (estimated) Total $ 334,178
Alternative 2 – Close Lawson Settlement Road at the Crossing Staff have evaluated and determined the crossing to have relatively little impacts of significance. Emergency Services Consultation Staff has met with the Chief of the Brighton Fire Department has stated closing the rail crossing will impact emergency services by increasing the response time by approximately 3 minutes. There are three homes in the immediate vicinity that would be affected by the rail crossing closure. The initial response from the fire department would be direct, but all subsequent tanker refills would be from a dry hydrant from a County Road 64 location, near the Speedway. Other Emergency Service agencies (Ontario Provincial Police and Ambulance) will be contacted for their input. Poultry Farm The Poultry Farm is one of the only occupants on Lawson Settlement Road west of Lawson Road. Because the crossing is closed to truck traffic, the overall impact will only be to the business owners and their employees with a perceived minimal impact the farm’s business operations. Other Agency Input A school bus stops north of the crossing where children will embark and disembark from the school bus and cross the tracks to access Lawson Settlement Road. In the event the crossing is closed, the school bus route can be altered to provide for a stop on Lawson Settlement Road with only a 4-5 minute additional commute for the school bus. The Board of Education and the School Busing company as well as Northumberland County and the City of Quinte West will all be consulted for input prior to any final recommendations. Financial Implications The table below summarizes the improvements and financial impacts, as follows: Category Description Total Costs Operational Total costs of signal operations ($ 11,178) Geometric Road closure – barricade, signage, $ 20,000 Improvements guiderail, road cul-de-sac Total $8,822 Additional savings are realized through allocating the hardware to the Stoney Point Crossing and the monthly operational costs will be saved beyond the one-year.
Page 34 of 151 Further to the financial implications stated above, the Municipality can apply for additional funding for the closure of the crossing. This includes: • Rebates totaling $40,000. The sum of $20,000 from the Grade Crossing Closure Program (GCCP) for the closure of the CN crossing and an additional $20,000 for the closure of the CP crossing. These grants will assist in purchasing the necessary barriers to stop traffic from crossing the rail, once the access is closed. The Municipality could also apply under the Grade Crossing Improvement Program (GCIP) for a grant to pay for up to 50% of the cost of constructing a cul-de-sac.
Conclusion Staff has demonstrated the closing of Lawson Settlement Road at the railway crossing to have negligible impact and that the public has nearby viable alternatives to cross. The closure of the crossing also has significant cost savings associated with this option. Staff will however reserve conclusions until such time the public and associated agencies have had an opportunity to have their concerns adequately addressed and considered.

•Chair Dave Sharp Past Chair Spencer Dennis Page 38 of 151 •Treasurer Michael Nicholson Director Lynda Blackburn •Director David Brummel Director Ruth Kerr •Director Ernie Sharp Director Peter Ware Purpose of Project: To determine the structural strength of the limestone structure and implement different procedures to determine the “best” route to finalize the restoration of the lighthouse. Findings of Project: 1. The existing shingles (shakes) have deteriorated and have been subsequently removed and disposed of. The paint on the shakes were found to contain lead. 2. The existing wooden girdle is found to have minimal deterioration and certainly capable of lasting many more generations
3. Page 39 of 151 Two tie-rods surrounding the lighthouse were found (there could be many more as we only opened up 8 areas for observation) 4. The “lining” plaster of the interior of the lighthouse was found to contain asbestos. 5. Several of the observed limestones were found to be cracked Page 40 of 151 Based upon the findings of the Pilot Project initial observations, it was agreed that: 1. No activity would occur inside the lighthouse at this time and existing plaster would stay in place 2. The existing wooden girdle would be left in place to support the limestone structure with the additional comment from our P. Eng. Consultant, that there is no engineering concerns leaving the wooden girdle as is (just like it has been for over 130+ years) 3. New composite Enviro-Shakes would be installed in the spring of 2018.
4. ThePage 41 of 151 four front rectangular window openings (located above the entrance door) would be modified when replacing the shakes to their original gothic design. 5. The new Cupola (removed five decades ago) would be built and reinstalled on the lighthouse in 2018 Chandler Island Cupola
This is similar to what our Cupola might look like Page 42 of 151 No roadblocks are insurmountable: 1. Cooperation from Ontario Parks • We continue to receive excellent cooperation from Ontario Parks 2. Cooperation from Dept. of Fisheries • We have rec’d permission to install the cupola as long as the design does not interfere with the “lumins” distribution of the existing latern 3. Cooperation from National Heritage Ass’n • No longer an issue as they deemed the lighthouse not worthy of heritage designation 4. Designing the Cupola as it was installed in the 1800’s • We have sufficient information and our P. Eng. Consultant is working on the
Page 43 of 151 design of it this month • Possible WRIT time frame due to Provincial Election 5.

•Page 55 of 151 Promotes safe and responsible Trail riding that demonstrates respect for wildlife, private land, landowners, crown land, and other Trails user groups in Ontario. Why OFATV • The OFATV is the only ATV organization in Ontario that has a Provincial mandate. • So when Government brings forward recommendations such as an annual licensing fee, the OFATV is invited as a stakeholder, to ensure that within the ministries mandate, a portion of the funds collected, will be turned over to trail management groups like the OFATV to develop programs, trails, clubs, policing, education, etc.. • Governments in general are looking for problem solvers, the OFATV provides that service. . For Example; In many cases if erosion occurs due to ATV usage on a trail, the Government or landowners answer is to close that area to motorized use. We offer an alternative, that being to develop a club that will take
Page 56 of 151 responsibility for the maintenance on the land in question. Then warden it, to make sure that members, (those that contribute to the sport) are the ones that are enjoying the trail. The Purpose of this Presentation
• The purpose of this presentation to this Municipal Council is to request the council to implement a ATV ROAD USE ACCESS BY-LAW within our Municipality. • NDATV has been requested this year to present an ATV road use access by-law to Brighton, Cramahe and Hamilton Councils based on the successful ATV road use access by-law trial in Trent Hills and the current by-laws in Cramahe and Alnwick/Haldimand. • Having the ATV Road User Access By-law will not only allow for a continuation of an ATV trail system across our province, but will allow both the citizens of Northumberland and future visitors to participate inPage 57 of 151 a safe, enjoyable, family oriented form of recreation while boosting tourism and enhancing economic development within our Municipality. STATISTICS • In a recent OFATV presentation to NDATV:
. There are about 350,000 ATV’s in Ontario.
. The number of ATVs continues to grow in Ontario at an astonishing rate.
. Our last reviews showed ATVs outselling snowmobiles at a rate of 8 to 1.
. Only 1% of these riders belong to an organized ATV Club.
. OFATV has a goal to have all ATVs Clubs organized so only one trail pass is Page 58 of 151 required for all Ontario Trails. THE PURPOSE OF THE BY-LAW

Page 64 of 151 based on ATV regulations.” “In my experience the use of 4 wheelers (ATVs) is a non-factor regarding real- estate transactions.“ PUBLIC SAFETY We have obtained written feedback from Police Services and BY-LAW Officers from Municipalities with ATV By-Laws in place. “I can say that no significant concerns or complaints have come to the attention of the police from the operations of ATVs. Furthermore, it appears that the operators are following the provisions of the by-law, and I am not aware of any infractions or safety risks that may have occurred in the past 8 months. ”
Page 65 of 151 The above quotation reinforces our claim that the ATV clubs are educating their members well with respect to safety and following the rules of the trails. PUBLIC SAFETY
“Since approval of the by-law, there have been few, if any complaints that have been forwarded to the By-law Enforcement Department. However, since this takes place on the highways and potentially outside of regular office hours, most enforcement would be Page 66 of 151 completed by the OPP from the Peterborough Detachment. I do not have records of any incidences from the OPP.” PUBLIC SAFETY • NDATV riders club raised $ 20,000 in donations to build a small bridge in memory of Lizzy. • NDATV riders club maintains their trails and adds signage. • NDATV donated GPS units, maps and training to Cramahe and Alnwick/Halimand fire dept. Page 67 of 151 PUBLIC SAFETY • To ensure PUBLIC SAFETY, ATV clubs provide their riders with training and educational material that promotes safety rules, as show below. This material and more are available to the local riders, and are promoted by the ATV Clubs. Page 68 of 151 LIABILITY • With respect to this important concern related to the ATV By-law, we have requested written feed back from neighbouring Townships with this by-law in place. the Township of CRAMAHE “I should also add that having the ATV by-law has had no negative impact on our township insurance costs.”
Page 69 of 151 Also based on conversations with insurance providers, the Liability costs of policies for municipalities do not increase with an ATV By-law in place. LIABILITY • With respect to this important concern related to the ATV By-law, we have requested written feed back from neighbouring Townships with this by-law in place. the Township of Alnwick/Haldimand “… there has been no incidents in respect to our municipal public highways or has the municipality have any insurance claims in Page 70 of 151 respect to litigation nor has this by-law impacted our annual municipal insurance.“ ECONOMICAL BENEFITS • There will be a boost to the local economic activity through ATV participants and visitors, who will spend dollars for gas, food and lodging at local businesses. • An independent economic impact study completed by Smith Gunther Associates Ltd., on behalf of the Canadian Off-Highway Vehicle Distributors Council (COHV) reported that in 2015 Ontario residents spent $974 million on activities directly involving the operation of All Terrain Vehicles (ATVs) and recreational off-highway vehicles (ROVs) also known as side by sides. • NDATV’s website has on average 3,200 visitors accessing 50,000 pages and downloading 1.5 GB a month. Our website is accessed world wide all across Canada, followed by the USA, United Kingdom, Europe and many other countries.

Trent Hills Independent By John Campbell Trent Hills - Allowing all-terrain vehicles on municipal roads “appears to have had little effect” on policing in Trent Hills last year, according to an analysis done by Northumberland OPP at council's request. Allowing all-terrain vehicles on And opening up public roads to ATVs “does not appear to have had any impact on public safety,” added Constable Jody Albert in a report he prepared for the period municipal roads appears to have following the implementation of the bylaw June 15 to the end of November. “ Of the 13 occurrences involving ATVs that turned up in his search of the records, only had little effect on policing in one was related to the new bylaw, which resulted in charges for operating an ATV ” between dusk and dawn, a $200 fine, and having a modified exhaust system, a $150 Trent Hills last year, according to fine. One individual was charged with several offences related to the operation of an ATV an analysis done by but “those charges would have been laid regardless” of the new bylaw, Albert said. In that incident, the OPP received complaints of an ATV being driven erratically in and Northumberland OPP at council's around Campbellford. “The driver refused to stop and fled” when approached by police but he was arrested later and charged with a half-dozen Highway Traffic Act offences. request.

Additional Feedback • Mr. Mayor Harrison of Quinte West on May 1,2016 was asked what effect their ATV bylaw had in their municipality: . Passed in 2006/07, he stated legalizing with a clear set of rules has provided tremendous results for us. ATV users no longer have to run and hide, they know the rules, the police know the rules and the issues of the past have gone away. We are also grateful for the revenue it has created. • Mr. Marc Coombs, Mayor for The Municipality of Cramahe on May 1 2016: . The bylaw was created 8 years ago, first year was a trial period. He stated, the bylaw has been great for us! He said the Northumberland Trail Riders Assoc. have done a tremendous job of policing and administrating their rights. He states they make trail improvements that make them safer, we as the municipality have aided the users with a culvert or two and gravel in the
Page 73 of 151 event of a washout for example. He concluded by saying, prior to the bylaw I was receiving a minimum of two calls or emails per month of complaint from their residents. In eight years since, I have had one call, and it was with regards to a motorcycle. Recommendations
Through the work on promoting the ATV by- law in Trent Hills we obtained overwhelming support and encouragement for our effort.

Subject/Title: 2017 Year End Reserve Contribution Report
Recommendation: That the following contributions be made to reserves in 2017 to be utilized in 2018 or future years:
1. $40,000.00 to the Recreation Reserve for the Memorial Park Stage Project; 2. $10,000.00 to Mount Hope Reserve for future Columbarium; 3. $3,590.00 for live streaming; 4. $7,606.89 to the Applefest Reserve, Representing the Surplus from the Applefest Event; 5. $1,099.50 to the Hilton Hall Building Reserve for funds collected by Heritage Advisory Committee. 6. $146,405.00 to the Public Works Reserve for deferred surface treatment roads (Sumach Lane, Jamieson Road, Lawson Settlement Road). 7. $18,500.00 to the Public Works Reserve for the reconstruction of Sanford Street, per subdivision agreement with 1751819 Ontario Inc.
Background/Purpose: Each year end there is a need to review the budgets of each department to determine if it is necessary to carry unspent funds forward to the following year when a project that was budgeted for has not been completed in the year the taxes were levied, but will be
Page 80 of 151 completed in the following year. This will ensure that the funds that were levied for that specific project are set aside in order to complete them.
Analysis/Comments: 1. $40,000.00 to the Recreation Reserve for the Memorial Park Stage Project. The Memorial Park Stage was deferred until 2018 to provide more time to secure additional funding. 2. $3,590.00 to the General Reserve for Live Streaming. The Civic Web Portal was implemented in 2017 but equipment has not been purchased 3. $10,000.00 to Mount Hope Reserve for future Columbarium. Expansion of the Columbarium will occur in a future year. 4. $7,606.89, Representing the Surplus from the Applefest Event. The surplus for the Applefest Event in 2017 is estimated to be $7,606.89. This amount assumes that all expenditures have been paid. Transferring surplus amounts from the event to a reserve provides the opportunity to fund increases to the event in the future, without impacting the taxpayer. 5. $1,099.50 to the Hilton Hall Building Reserve for funds collected by Heritage Advisory Committee. The friends of Hilton Hall have raised funds through membership fees, events and donations. 6. $146,405.00 to the PW Reserve for deferred surface treatment roads (Sumach Lane, Jamieson Road, Lawson Settlement Road). Some of our surface treatment road program was deferred in 2017 due to the wet spring and summer. 7. $18,500.00 to the Public Works Reserve for the reconstruction of Sanford Street, per subdivision agreement with 1751819 Ontario Inc. These funds will be held until the Municipality undertakes the final construction work of Sanford Street.
Legal/Legislative:
Financial Implications: The placement of these funds into a reserve will lessen the impact on the future departmental budgets as they will be able to budget the contribution from the reserves to fund these projects and therefore, will not have to request funds from the general levy for them.

Subject/Title: General Fees and Charges Supplementary Report
Recommendation: That Council receive the General Fees and Charges Supplementary Report as information.
Background/Purpose: The annual fees and charges report was presented to Council on November 13, 2017. Council held a public meeting on December 4 and received comments regarding building and planning fee increases and minor hockey fees.
Analysis/Comments: The Manager of Planning, Building and Community Development will be meeting with the Brighton Homebuilders' Association in the near future to discuss levels of service and fees. A revised Planning and Building Fees and Charges By-law will be brought to Council early in 2018. For now, the current fees and charges for planning and building fees will be maintained.
The Minor Hockey fees have been increased by $3.00 per hour, effective June 1, 2018. Public comments were taken into consideration by staff. Minor Hockey fees have not increased in 4 years.
Page 82 of 151
The 2018 Fees and Charges By-law has been split into two by-laws on tonight's agenda.
• The recommended fees and charges for general government, fire, by-law, and public works and parks and recreation fees are included in one by-law. • The interim 2018 planning and building fees and charges are included on another by-law and will be revised to fund the adjusted level of service once the meeting with Brighton Homebuilders' Association has occurred.
Additionally, the 2018 Water and Wastewater Fees and Charges By-law is included on tonight's agenda.
Legal/Legislative:
Financial Implications: Sufficient Fees and Charges for specific services that benefit the user reduces the impact on the general tax base.

Executive Summary:
The Ontarians with Disabilities Act, 2001 (ODA) aims to improve access and opportunities to people with disabilities and to enable their involvement in the identification, removal and prevention of barriers. In turn, ODA assists municipalities to prepare an annual accessibility plan in consultation with those with a disability within their community.
This document is the Municipality of Brighton’s Annual Accessibility Plan for the upcoming year of 2018. It describes measures that the Municipality of Brighton intends to take in the coming year to identify, remove and prevent barriers for people with disabilities. This document includes all Municipally owned buildings that have barriers to be removed, and sidewalks and intersections to help make Brighton more accessible for those who have a disability. Furthermore, it will provide a detailed report on the success or failure of previous barriers identified in the Accessibility Plan in 2014 and 2015.
This Accessibility Plan will be the blueprint for Brighton’s Municipal Accessibility Advisory Committee. Not only will the committee update the plan annually, but also, continue to educate others about disabilities and accessibility.
We recognize that persons with disabilities represent a significant and growing part of Ontario’s and the Municipality’s population. According to Statistics Canada, about 1.9 million Ontarians have a disability, about 16% of the population. Disability tends to increase with age and it is estimated that in two decades 20% of the population will have disabilities. Enhancing the ability of people with disabilities to live independently and contribute to the community will have positive effects on future prosperity in Ontario.
2018 Accessibility Plan PagePagePage 117 53of of of151 30 28
Definition of Disability:
The Ontarians with Disabilities Act, 2001, defines disability and barrier to include the following:

A condition of mental impairment or developmental disability 3. A learning disability, or a dysfunction in one or more of the processes involved in understanding or using symbols or spoken language 4. A mental disorder 5. An injury or disability for which benefits were claimed or received under the insurance plan established under the Workplace Safety and Insurance Act, 1997.
Barrier: Means anything that prevents a person with a disability from fully participating in all aspects of society because of his or her disability, including a physical barrier, an architectural barrier, an information or communication barrier, an attitudinal barrier, a technological barrier, a policy or practice.

Objective of the Plan: This plan does the following: 1. Describes the measures the Municipality will take in the coming year to identify, remove and prevent barriers for people with disabilities. 2. Describes how the Municipality will make the plan available to the public.
Mission Statement: Brighton will continue to progress responsibly, respecting our unique rural and urban heritage. We will maintain our small town charm and be a friendly host to all who choose to live, work, and visit our welcoming community. The Municipality of Brighton is committed to treating all people in a way that allows them to maintain their dignity and independence. We believe in integration and equal opportunity. We are committed to meeting the needs of people with disabilities in a timely manner, and will do so by preventing and removing barriers to accessibility and meeting accessibility requirements under the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act.
2018 Accessibility Plan PagePagePage 119 75of of of151 30 28
Legislation:
On June 13, 2005, the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act, 2005 (AODA) received Royal Assent and is now law. The AODA required the provincial government to work with the disability community and the private and public sectors to jointly develop standards to be achieved within stages of five years or less, leading to an accessible Ontario in 20 years (2025).
The Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act 2005 (AODA) was enacted to serve as a framework for the establishment of accessibility in five different areas:
• Customer Service • Information & Communications • Transportation • Employment; and • The Built Environment
The standards support the principles of the AODA to ensure dignity, integration, independence and equal opportunity and each standard has specific timelines for implementation. The AODA is in place for the purpose of ensuring that people with disabilities are not discriminated against. Implementation for both public and private sectors is to be phased in over time to achieve the Provincial government’s objective of a fully accessible province by 2025.
2018 Accessibility Plan PagePagePage 120 86of of of151 30 28
Regulations under the AODA: Customer Service – Ontario Regulation 429/07
This was the first standard under the AODA to become law. It ensures that people with disabilities can receive goods and services in a manner that considers one’s disability.
Integrated Accessibility Standards (IASR) – Ontario Regulation 429/07
The IASR is comprised of three of the five accessibility standards. These standards ensure accessibility in the areas of Information and Communications, Employment and Transportation. The development and the implementation strategies for these standards is ongoing and completed following the specified timelines for each in order to reach compliance and provide for accessibility across the municipality. The Municipality of Brighton 2018 Accessibility Plan identifies the implementation schedule and actions that have been taken and are going to be over the upcoming year.
Accessibility Standards for the Built Environment
The final set of standards is the Design of Public Spaces. This set of standards will ensure that accessibility is included within all new construction of public spaces and extensive renovations. These standards relate to recreational trails, beach access, outdoor public use seating areas, outdoor play spaces, exterior paths of travel, obtaining service and maintenance. The Municipality of Brighton understands the importance of an accessible built environment that allows for independence and participation for persons with disabilities. Currently new construction and renovations to Municipality of Brighton owned public facilities and spaces adhere to the accessibility design standards.
Comprehensive Audit Checklist and Multi-Year Plan
2018 Accessibility Plan PagePagePage 121 97of of of151 30 28
The AODA legislation set out time lines that require when certain aspects of the program are to be completed. Brighton has complied with these requirements with such actions as policy development and initial audits of compliance and gaps to compliance. A comprehensive audit checklist should be developed to allow progress to be monitored. This checklist will be used to update the work plan in the following steps:
Step 1: Development of Audit Checklist with review by the Accessibility Committee. The checklist will be based on the Ontario Guide to the Integrated Accessibility Standards Regulation. The Audit will indicate the status of all items reviewed under the check-list and will provide details. (Details will include work completed and required to meet regulation. In the Design of Public Spaces standards where work is only required if new or renovation work is carried out, potential work may be included.
Step 2: Municipal staff will be trained and will carry out audits.
Step 3: All audits will be collated by staff and provided to the Accessibility Committee.
Step 4: The Accessibility Committee will review the audits (including site visits if required) and suggest priorities. Highest priority will be given to items required under the legislation followed by potential items.
Step 5: The priority list will be provided to staff for review with managers and for preparation of the implementation work plan. The work plan will be provided to Council for review, revision, inclusion in budget deliberations and inclusion in the annual Accessibility Plan update.
