Options for Accessibility Advisory Committee Municipality of the County of Kings Request for Decision TO Council PREPARED BY Gordon Roussel, Policy Analyst MEETING DATE October 6, 2020 SUBJECT Options for Accessibility Advisory Committee ORIGIN • Nova Scotia Accessibility Act, Chp 2, RSNS 2017 requires that all municipalities form an Accessibility Advisory Committee and complete an accessibility plan no later than April 1, 2021. • October 16, 2019 Village-Municipal Meeting Presentation ‘Accessibility Planning for Municipalities’. RECOMMENDATION That Municipal Council approve entering into discussions with the seven Villages located in Kings County regarding the formation of a Joint Accessibility Advisory Committee consisting of: i. one member of Council who is also a member of the Kings Transit Authority Board of Directors, ii. one Commissioner from each of the seven Villages, and iii. eight members of the public who either have a disability or represent an organization that represents people with disabilities. At a minimum, that would include one member of the public who has a disability from each of the Western, Central, and Eastern areas of the Municipality, as shown on the map in Schedule A of the Planning Advisory Committee Policy (PLAN-09-003). Should no applications for citizen members be received from one of the three areas, an applicant from another part of the Municipality may be appointed to represent that area. INTENT To form an Accessibility Advisory Committee (AAC) and prepare an Accessibility Plan as required by the Province of Nova Scotia Accessibility Act by April 1, 2021 or such later date as may be set by the Nova Scotia Accessibility Directorate as a result of the Provincial State of Emergency declared on March 22, 2020. DISCUSSION On April 28, 2017, Bill 59, An Act Respecting Accessibility in Nova Scotia, received Royal Assent. Of particular relevance to the Municipality of the County of Kings (MOK) are the following sections of the Act: • 39(2) A municipality, university or organization shall prepare and make publicly available an accessibility plan within one year of being prescribed as a public sector body. • 43 Two or more public sector bodies may agree to have a joint accessibility plan. • 44(1) Every public sector body shall establish an accessibility advisory committee or continue any such committee that was established before the coming into force of this Act. • 44(2) At least one half of the members of an accessibility advisory committee must be persons with disabilities or representatives from organizations representing persons with disabilities. • 71(1) The Governor in Council may make regulations (a) prescribing municipalities, universities and organizations as public sector bodies; On December 2, 2019, the Accessibility Act General Regulations came into effect. In the Regulations, the following organizations were among those prescribed as public sector bodies under the Act effective April 1, 2020: • a regional municipality, a county or district municipality, a town • a village continued under the Municipal Government Act Municipality of the County of Kings Request for Decision Therefore the MOK and the Villages within the County must each (1) form an Accessibility Advisory Committee, and then (2) complete an Accessibility Plan no later than April 1, 2021. Section 41 of the Act states that “A public sector body shall seek input from persons with disabilities and representatives of organizations representing persons with disabilities when preparing an accessibility plan”. This requires public consultation. Because it has not been practical to consult with the public as a result of the Provincial State of Emergency declared on March 22, 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Nova Scotia Accessibility Directorate has agreed to extend this deadline. The new date has not been determined as of the date of this report. The role of the Accessibility Advisory Committee is to advise the Municipal Council on identifying, preventing, and eliminating accessibility barriers to municipal programs, services, and infrastructure. As previously noted, at least one half of the members of an AAC must be persons with disabilities or representatives from organizations representing persons with disabilities. Committee members may be staff, members of council, community members, partners, or others. The Town of Wolfville AAC consists of eight voting members including the Mayor, one other member of Council, and six members at large. With the exception of the Mayor who is ex-officio, all members are appointed for two or three year terms. The CAO and Accessibility Coordinator are non-voting ex-officio members. Appendix A shows the voting membership composition of AACs established by Nova Scotia municipalities as of July 30, 2020. In most cases, AACs consist of members of Council with an equal or greater number of members from the public. The members from the public are primarily persons with disabilities or representatives from organizations representing persons with disabilities. In reviewing term appointments for other AACs, it was common to have a mix of two year and three year terms when the AAC was first established in order to stagger appointments. Once those initial terms expire, all new appointments would then be for three years. The Act does not state a minimum or maximum number of committee members, although this is an important consideration. The smaller a committee is, the less representative it will be of persons with disabilities in the community. On the other hand, the larger a committee is, the more difficult it will be to come to a consensus when developing recommendations. Finding that balance may be one of the most challenging aspects of forming an AAC. Amongst the municipalities listed in Appendix A, AAC size ranges from three to eleven members, with six to eight members being typical. In lieu of a prescribed public sector body forming its own AAC, it may choose to form a Joint Accessibility Advisory Committee (JAAC) with other prescribed public sector bodies that have common interests. In that case, each member must be approved separately by each municipality or public sector body represented on the committee. Appendix B shows two examples of JAACs, both located on the South Shore. In both examples, each participating municipality appoints one member of its council to the committee. As with the regular AACs in Appendix A, the number of members from the public on the JAACs equals or exceeds the number of Council members. The terms of reference for both JAACs specify that all members from the public are to be appointed by all participating municipal units. There is no requirement that there be a member from the public from each participating municipal unit. One JAAC has nine members and the other ten members. Therefore, the minimum size of a JAAC would be double the number of municipal units participating in order for there to be one member from each council and at least one half of the members being persons with disabilities or representatives from organizations representing persons with disabilities. Intermunicipal service corporations (IMSAs) such as the Kings Transit Authority (KTA) have not been designated as public sector bodies in the Regulations. The Directorate has suggested to MOK that if concerns regarding services provided by intermunicipal agencies are raised during public consultations, Municipality of the County of Kings Request for Decision MOK is expected to address those in some manner in the plan. The Transportation section of the Town of Wolfville accessibility plan does refer to working with the KTA to address some issues that have been identified by their AAC. Because public transit is one of the largest public facing services provided through a corporate body, the majority of which is owned by the MOK, and Transit staff have training and background in accessibility, Municipal staff are recommending that this specific IMSA be asked to join a JAAC. Staff therefore recommend that MOK form a JAAC with the Villages and the KTA. The joint approach would not only be a way of sharing resources and expertise, but also allow for a consistent approach in addressing accessibility issues throughout Kings County. Another important consideration is if there are eight separate AACs within the County, it may prove difficult for all of them to find adequate representation amongst individuals with disabilities or those who represent them. To ensure that MOK and all the Villages are represented, there would need to be one member of MOK Council and one Commissioner from each of the Villages. To ensure KTA is represented, the member of MOK Council would also be a member of the KTA Board of Directors. With an equal number of members from the community who have disabilities or represent those who do, the JAAC would have a total of sixteen voting members. Four elected officials and four community members would be appointed for three year terms, and the remainder for two year terms. After two years, all appointments would be for three year terms. The CAO, or designate, and the Accessibility Coordinator would be non-voting ex-officio members. A senior staff member of the KTA with accessibility expertise would be asked to join the Committee in an ex-officio non-voting advisory capacity. To ensure all parts of the Municipality are represented, the JAAC would include at least one member of the public who has a disability from each of the Western, Central, and Eastern areas of the Municipality, as shown on the map which forms Schedule A of the Planning Advisory Committee Policy (PLAN-09- 003).1 This requirement would not apply to citizen members who represent organizations that represent people with disabilities. Should no applications for citizen members be received from one of the three areas, an applicant from another part of the Municipality could be appointed to represent that area. This is consistent with the Planning Advisory Committee Policy (PLAN-09-003), the Police Services Advisory Committee (By-Law 82), and the Fire Services Advisory Committee.

    To: Kelliann Dean, Deputy Minister, Department of Municipal Affairs Deputy Mayor Laurie Murley, President, UNSM Marie Walsh, President, AMANS Rod Nielsen President, Fire Services Association From: Fire Services Study Steering Committee Date: August 3, 2017 Re: Municipal Review of Fire Services in Nova Scotia As you are aware, the Union of Nova Scotia Municipalities and the Association of Municipal Administrators of Nova Scotia, with the financial support of the Province of Nova Scotia, engaged a consultant to facilitate a frank and open discussion on fire services. The consultant was asked to meet with representative stakeholders to ascertain and prioritize key issues at the local level, to consider opportunities to address these issues, and to facilitate the sharing of best practices, lessons learned and possible areas for collaboration. The work of the consultant was overseen by a Project Steering Committee comprised of representatives from UNSM, AMANS, the Fire Services Association and the Fire Marshal’s Office. The task of the Project Steering Committee was to select the consultant, to ensure the terms of reference were met and to facilitate the work of the consultant. Pomax Consulting was engaged to undertake the review. Their report is attached in Appendix B. Project Steering Committee Observations The Consultant has fulfilled the terms of reference. The Project Steering Committee recognizes the hard work of the consultant in documenting stakeholders’ views and concerns. The recommendations of the consultant make sense, in that the issues are complex and not solved by one group alone. The need to work together is paramount. During the stakeholder consultations, it became evident that there were varying degrees of understanding with respect to fire services in Nova Scotia, particularly around authority and areas of responsibility.

  • THE EXPERIENCE of ORGANIZING MICHELIN, 1971-19891 By
    THE EXPERIENCE OF ORGANIZING MICHELIN, 1971-19891 by Andrew Anningson, Gregor Bertram, Darren Burns, Pamela Chase, Paul Holt, Chris McDonald, Steven Montgomerie, John Russell, Alex Stevenson, Jane Taylor, Todd Taylor, and Melanie Tonge. Edited by A. Thomson. 1992 Introduction Gregor Bertram and Andrew Anningson The experience of organizing Michelin workers in Nova Scotia was quite different for each of the parties involved. Labour struggles are two-sided affairs. When the crunch comes, there is no neutral, middle ground. Each party presents its part of the story as though only their version does justice to the issues. This sense of bias is found, to a certain extent, in the media coverage of the events. Depending on the point of view of the writer and on the intended audience, the author gives more weight to certain issues and interpretations than others, either blatantly or more indirectly. Much of this story about organizing Michelin concerns the actions and reactions of the contending groups to each other in their determination to win the struggle. Michelin was determined to remain union-free; various unions operating in Nova Scotia had other ideas. If the situation were to be described simply, it would appear to reflect constant jockeying for position in the control of the worker’s situation. By the end of the nearly two-decade battle, Michelin had the upper hand, as they had through most of the time, and as had been the case from the very beginning, they had the full support of the provincial government in ensuring that a union did not make headway with Michelin workers.
