REPORT TO COUNCIL
Report number: 26-2020 Date of Meeting: February 25, 2020 From: Cathy MacMunn, Clerk-Administrator Prepared by:
Re: ROMA CONFERENCE – JANUARY 19-21st, 2020 - TORONTO
A. RECOMMENDATION(S)
THAT Council receive the Report entitled “ROMA Conference – January 19 – 21st as prepared by the Clerk Administrator for information.
B. BACKGROUND/ INFORMATION
The Clerk Administrator along with members of Council attended the ROMA conference January 19th -21st in Toronto. This was the first time I attended the conference and found it to be an excellent opportunity of learning and networking.
WORKSHOPS ATTENDED:
1/ Asset Management in Action: Success Stories from Rural Ontario: (Sarah MacKelvie, from Municipal Asset Management Program, FCM, Donald Cunningham, Mayor, Township of Ignace as well as Marshalina Reader, CAO; Lloyd Perrin, Director of Asset Management and Development Services, Municipality of Central Elgin.)
Asset management is a journey with no goal at the end as it is a continuous process Lessons learned by both Township of Ignace and Central Elgin were: Asset management system is not software it is a cultural shift in thinking across the organization as it includes everyone. Assets are complex and need to spend the right amount of money at the right time on the right asset. They found that it is critical to know and document assets You need to understand what you have Make sure you have enough money set aside to maintain the assets Need to set levels of service as they are a guide for Councils budget process. Also need to prioritize.
2/ Rural Health Care: (Jim Pine, CAO, Hastings County) As part of Ontario’s comprehensive plan to end hallway health care, they will be modernizing both public health and emergency health services to meet the revolving needs of communities across Ontario.
Administration 26-2020 Roma Conference - January 19-21st - Toronto Page 41 of 103 AGENDA ITEM #e)
The Ministry of Health has been having consultations on how to strengthen and modernize public health and emergency health services, and Jim Pine is chair of that committee and will be meeting with a number of groups.
3/ Improving Community Healthcare: A Regional Approach to EMS: This session was sponsored by Medavie, who provide health care services to the public sector under a variety of contracts (Municipal, Provincial, Federal) They are the current provider of land ambulance services in Elgin County, the Municipality of Chatham-Kent and Perth County. Healthcare and the challenge surrounding healthcare delivery continue to be trending topics. At the municipal level, opportunity exists to establish more access points for care outside hospitals, create capacity without needing new resources and find efficiencies within today’s practices. Benefits of Regional-Based Paramedic Services are: Improve the well-being of residents and communities Enhance patient experience.
4/ What Does Senior Leadership Support for Psychological Health and Safety Really Mean? (Liz Horvath, Manager, Workplace Mental Health, Opening Minds, Mental Health Commission of Canada) This session focused on Mental Health Mental illness affects all Canadians and 1 to 5 people in Canada The statistics are that by age 40 about 50% of the population will have or have had a mental illness. Suicide is one of the leading causes of death in both men and women from adolescence to middle age. Mental Health issues account for 30 to 40% of STD (short term disability) and 30% of LTD (long term disability) claims in Canada and is climbing by .5 to 1.0% every year. Leadership commitment to workplace mental health requires more than incidental endorsement. You have to show the support and resources. Workplace stress remains the leading cause of employees’ mental health issues. Mental Illness refers to a wide range of mental health conditions – disorders that affect your mood, thinking and behaviour. I found this session very informative it certainly brings more of an awareness on mental illness.
5/Cybersecurity and Closed Meetings (John Mascarin) John focused on s.239 (2)(a) security of the property of the municipality. “Security” is not defined but relates to “protection” Exception applies to discussions about: protection of municipally-owned property from loss, theft or damage (i.e. a threat); and or protection of public safety in relation thereto:
Administration 26-2020 Roma Conference - January 19-21st - Toronto Page 42 of 103 AGENDA ITEM #e)
“Security of property in his opinion has a plain meaning that deals with threats to the physical or financial aspects of the property from some outside source. Municipalities should consider having cybersecurity insurance.
6/Rural Social Policy Panel (Sonya Jodoin, Executive Director, Victim Services of Leeds & Grenville, Dr. Barbara Perry, Professor, University of Ontario Institute of Technology, Graydon Smith, Mayor Bracebridge ) This session explored social issues which impact all municipalities and rural areas are not immune to this. Opioid Overdose The steady rise in opioid-related deaths from 2015 to 2018 is significant with 152% increase in visits to emergency departments in Ontario. There is an immense pressure on municipal services and emergency responders to address the issue. A more comprehensive provincial response is needed urgently. There is a need for crisis intervention for mental health disorders and addictions. Rural Patterns of Hate and Extremism Hate crimes are up and in fact the KKK are still present today. Domestic Human Trafficking is happening in rural areas more than you think. Despite age, domestic human trafficking can exist if force, fraud and coercion are present. This session certainly opens your eyes as to how bad it really is.
C. FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS Conference registration and hotel accommodation is within the 2020 proposed budget. I travelled with staff from North Frontenac Township who did not charge mileage.

Report number: 27-2020 Date of Meeting: February 25, 2020 From: Cindy Deachman, Deputy-Clerk
Re: Community Safety and Policing Act, 2019: Ontario Provincial Police Regulatory Requirements
Recommendations
THAT Council receive for information the “Community Safety and Policing Act, 2019: Ontario Provincial Policy Regulatory Requirements” Report for information.
A. Background/ information
The Deputy Clerk and Treasurer attended the roundtable session on February 20th in Brockville hosted by the Ministry of the Solicitor General. The Deputy Minister along with two policy advisors facilitated the session.
The purpose of the roundtable was to seek consultation in order to draft certain regulations for the Community Safety and Policing Act (CSPA), which are required before the CSPA can come into force. Specific consultation was sought relating to the composition, number, and size of the Detachment Boards and OPP Governance Advisory Committee as well as transitional matters.
Timeline: February/March – Consultation with stakeholders Spring 2020- draft regulations placed on public registry for comment; 2020 – transition/training, dissolution of existing police services boards 2021 – Act comes into force
Currently municipalities either enter into an agreement with OPP for their services, (Section 10) or receive OPP services by default (Section 5.1). Section 10 municipalities must have Police Services Boards whereas Section 5.1. municipalities have Community Policing Advisory Committees (CPACs).
The CPSA will eliminate this distinction by phasing out agreements (municipalities can still contract with OPP for enhanced services). The Act also establishes a Governance Review Process comprised of OPP Detachment Board(s), which has an advisory relationship with the OPP Governance Advisory Council which then provides advice to the OPP Commissioner and Solicitor General.
Administration 27-2020 Community Safety and Policing Act, 2019: Ontario ... Page 44 of 103 AGENDA ITEM #f)
Discussion about the governance of these detachment boards and governance review raised the following issues/comments/themes:
Should regulations regarding size composition of the Detachment Boards be permissive or prescriptive? What criteria to should exist to allow more than one detachment board be established? Was the training and board membership requirements too onerous and adding cost to municipalities’ budgets? Is this fixing a system that isn’t broken? Concern over the new oversight role of the Inspectors General What does fair representation mean? Based on geography, population, critical infrastructure? No consistency in current model, hope to fix with new regime. Should there still be provincial appointees? Are citizen appointees appropriate? Desire of ministry to encourage transparency, efficiency and consultation
There was a wide array of opinions expressed.
Given the Frontenac townships already collaborate and share services, and have similar policing needs and demographics, the transition to the new system isn’t anticipated to have a negative impact on Central Frontenac. Currently, South Frontenac is the only township in the detachment with a police services board. The elimination of S. 10 and 5 1. municipalities may improve our representation as we will now be a participant of the Detachment Board for the Frontenac Detachment, along with the other 3 municipalities. As such our ability to craft local action plans and facilitate local solutions to our policing will be enhanced.
If members of council have any comments relating specifically to the size and composition of detachment boards, the approach for establishing more than one board, the composition of the OPP Governance Advisory Council, staff can provide the contact information for input submission. There will be further opportunity for comments once the regulations are drafted and put on the registry.
B. Financial Implications
The billing model is not up for review or amendments at this time. Therefore there is no anticipated financial implications relating to this round of consultation.
Some discussion revolved around the possibility of contracting out certain policing services under s. 14 to have some work done by civilians to reduce policing costs. This was outside the scope of the consultation, but something that can be explored in future. Municipalities still have the option of entering into enhanced service contracts with OPP for additional policing/by-law
Administration 27-2020 Community Safety and Policing Act, 2019: Ontario ... Page 45 of 103 AGENDA ITEM #f)

B. Background/ information
Our Septic re-Inspection bylaw (2020-04) appoints the Mississippi Rideau Septic System Office’s qualified employees as Building Inspectors (Sewage Systems) under Section 3 of the Building Code Act.
The township entered into an agreement in 2018 with the Mississippi Rideau Septic System Office to complete the inspections for the 2019 year. We are in the process of extending this arrangement to cover 2020, with the option to renew.
The proposed agreement is for the most part the same as the 2018. Substantive changes include:
1. Proper corporate name for township 2. Definitions – added definition for Code and amended definition of Sewage system to blend with the definition of same in our By-Law; 3. Clarified that the lump sum fee would be based on the number of inspections actually completed, in the event less than 300 inspections are completed within the year, 4. Provides for renewal options if both parties agree, so a new agreement doesn’t have to be signed next year.

THE CORPORATION OF THE TOWNSHIP OF CENTRAL FRONTENAC
REPORT TO COUNCIL
Report number: 29-2020 Date of Meeting: February 25, 2020 From: Cathy MacMunn, Clerk Administrator Prepared by: Cindy Deachman, Deputy Clerk
Re: Road Allowance Closure/ Conveyance request– Part road allowance between Concession 5 & 6 Hinchinbrooke, adjacent to Lot 24 (Brown)
A. Recommendation(s)
THAT Council approve in principle the recommendation of the Clerk Administrator to proceed with the closing and conveyance of part of the unopened road allowance between Concession 5 and 6 adjacent to Lot 24 Hinchinbrooke, as applied for by Doug Brown;
AND THAT we proceed to a public meeting to close the said road allowance and obtain a letter of value of opinion to determine the consideration for the conveyance of the road allowance.
B. Background/ Information
The applicant has applied to the Township to formally request a closure and conveyance of part of the road allowance that separates two lots he currently owns (Pt Lot 24 Con 6 and N Pt Lot 24 Con 5). The purpose for this application is so that the Concession 5 property will abut and merge with his Concession 6 property, so he can ensure access from Wagerville Road to the Concession 5 property, which is currently landlocked.
The applicant advises that the area of the road allowance near the northern boundary of Lot 24 is impassable due to wetlands/water, so using the road allowance for access to Wagerville Road further north is not physically possible.
Notwithstanding the above, as this unopened road allowance does provide the only public access to property recently sold by tax sale (36159-0008), staff propose that circulation of notice of the closure be sent to this property owner as well as the adjoining property owners.
By completing the closure and conveyance, the municipality will reduce liability created as a result of having an unmaintained road allowance open to the public, as well as allow the applicant to create access for his property in Concession 5.
Administration 29-2020 Road Allowance Closure/Conveyance Request - Part ... Page 58 of 103 AGENDA ITEM #h)
The application has been circulated to building, public works, planning and fire/emergency services departments. Comments are as follows:
Fire/Emergency Services – no concerns or comments; Development Services – no concerns or comments; Financial Services – confirmed landlocked property was sold by tax sale last year Public Works - no concerns or comments Planning - as per below:
Planning staff have had an opportunity to review the proposed road allowance closure for the Brown property (PIN 361590011) and offer the following.
Planning staff have no objection to the closure of the road allowance to facilitate the creation of a single lot from the two parcels. We understand that this may benefit the property owner from a tax standpoint to have a single lot.
With respect to the closure of the road allowance to provide access to the abutting parcel (or further land locked parcel), planning staff raise caution to the creation of access prior to the review by Rideau Valley Conservation Authority. According to MNRF mapping, the wetland is unevaluated. Given the extent and connectivity of the wetland, RVCA may recommend that a study be completed prior to a road being installed to ensure all regulations are met. While this could be completed later, if this is the reason the applicants are moving forward it may be worthwhile for them to understand all costs/requirements at this stage.
I would recommend that prior to moving forward with a public meeting that RVCA be contacted and requested to review. This could be driven by the applicant.
Staff have forwarded these comments to the applicant for his information.
If Council endorses the recommendation we would schedule a public meeting and provide notification under the policy.
C. FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS
The application process is cost recovery.
Some revenue can be expected for the land value/consideration.

RTCO is a partnership dedicated to growing the tourism and economic impact of off highway power sports in Ontario, while addressing the needs of shared use trails.
Ontario’s economic impacts from off-highway vehicle users (excluding snowmobiles) currently results in over $211 million in GDP, creates over 9,000 direct and indirect jobs, and contributes $27 million annually in tax revenue for provincial and federal governments, with an additional $5.9 million in tourism spending, and creates an additional 70 full time equivalent jobs.
Tourism and economic impacts can gain from consolidated, coordinated, and broad-reaching marketing programs that result in more users and visitors choosing Ontario’s off-highway trails and bringing their spending dollars into rural communities across Ontario Network of 2,700 km of shared-use trails Best practice in development, across 25 municipalities in Eastern maintenance and marketing Ontario and Huron, Grey and Bruce Tourism-oriented in addition to Counties.

Moving Forward:
Together we are looking for a sustainable solution for trails to secure funding and address the needs of trails and protect the investments made.
Shown in the RTCO business plan and strategy there are three models below:
Service Ontario Administered: This legislated permit process is administered directly by the Ministry of Transportation at designated Service Ontario centres.
This model has the potential to generate through scenario 1 and visitor impact $24,457,480 RTCO Administered Model: Though this model is also a legislated permit mandated by the Province, it is based on the OFSC version where its administration is handled by an external organization.
This model has the potential to generate through scenario 1 and visitor impact $20,057,313 Universal Access Pass administered model: This would be a self-governed universal pass shared across all organizations and administered by RTCO.
This model has the potential to generate through scenario 1 and visitor impact $8,821,519

Queen’s Park Update
Cannabis
On December 12th, the government amended Ontario Regulation 478/18 under the Cannabis License Act, 2018. This opens Ontario’s cannabis retail market in 2020. Retail applications begin on January 6, 2020 and the new changes in the regulation include:
Ceasing the lottery for retail licenses Eliminating pre-qualification requirements for retailers Allowing licensed producers to open retail store connected to a production facility
On March 2, 2020, the restrictions on the total number of store authorizations permitted in the province will be revoked. Licensed operators will be allowed to have up to 10 stores until September 2020, up to 30 stores until September 2021 and up to 75 stores afterwards. Store applications will only be eligible in municipalities that have opted-in to sell cannabis.

End of the Fall Legislative Session
The Legislative Assembly of Ontario ended its 2019 legislative session on December 12th and is adjourned until February 18, 2020. Here are some short summaries of Bills of municipal interest that have received Royal Assent.
Bill 132, Better for People, Smarter for Business Act, 2019 – Received Royal Assent on Dec. 10th.
1
Communications Page 94 of 103 AGENDA ITEM #a)
The legislative changes in Bill 132 of most municipal concern are to the Aggregates Act. While it is an improvement that a change will require an application process for below water table extraction, rather than just an amendment to a licence, it still allows the province to issue licences for below water table extraction while the Safe Drinking Water Act, Section 19 stipulates that owners of municipal drinking water sources are guilty of an offence if they fail to exercise care over a drinking water system, like a well. As aquafers are connected, a decision of the province to allow below water table extraction could lead to contamination of municipal drinking water sources.
Given the conflict between these two Acts, AMO had asked for a concurrent amendment to the Safe Drinking Water Act to indemnify Council members for decisions on Aggregates Act applications that the province makes. This amendment was not made to the legislation that now has Royal Assent. We believe this will result in municipal councils appealing all provincial decisions on below water table extraction to the Local Planning Appeal Tribunal (LPAT) to show appropriate due diligence.
As well through Bill 132, the Highway Traffic Act was amended to allow municipal governments to pass by-laws that will allow some off-road vehicles to be driven on municipal highways.
For more information on this omnibus bill, please refer to AMO’s Bill 132 submission.

Honourable Doug Ford Premier of Ontario Legislative Building Queen's Park Toronto ON M7A 1A1
Dear Premier:
Re: Support for Conservation Authorities
Please be advised that the Council of the Township of South Frontenac passed the following resolution at their meeting February 4, 2020:
“Whereas the Township of South Frontenac has been well served by Quinte Conservation, Cataraqui Conservation and Rideau Valley Conservation Authorities,
And whereas we value the efforts of the Conservation Authorities to monitor floods, to manage Source Water protection and to ensure the integrity of the watersheds within our Township and conserve our natural environment,
And whereas the province of Ontario is currently reviewing the mandate and operations of conservation authorities,
And whereas Conservation Authorities provide essential services to municipalities in their watersheds,
And whereas smaller municipalities do not have the capacity or the financial resources to employ staff with the technical expertise that conservation authorities provide,
Therefore be it resolved that the Township of South Frontenac encourages the province to continue to support the principle of planning on a watershed basis in the ongoing review and prioritize the allocation of adequate funding to support the core mandate of conservation authorities.
And that the provincial government will maintain and not diminish the core mandate of Conservation Authorities

And that this resolution is forwarded to Premier Doug Ford, the Minister of the Environment, Conservation and Parks, the Minister of Natural Resources and Forestry, Conservation Ontario, the Association of Municipalities of Ontario and all Ontario municipalities. (Carried)
The Township of South Frontenac wish to express their support for Conservation Authorities as they provide an essential service as it is not within our existing financial capacity to hire staff with the particular expertise provided by Rideau Valley Conservation Authority, Quinte Conservation Authority and Cataraqui Region Conservation Authority.
We are aware of the stakeholder engagement sessions planned this month with the Ministry of Environment, Conservation and Parks, and with Minister Yurek as an opportunity to express our concerns. We urge the provincial government to maintain the core mandate of local Conservation Authorities and look forward to receiving any updates on this matter.
Yours truly
Angela Maddocks

Mayor Smith, Council Members,
At the last Sharbot Lake & District Lions Club meeting, we had a conversation re: the gazebo that is across from the Township Office. It appears to be in need of some TLC.
With Council's permission, the Lions are willing to take a close look at the gazebo, in the spring, and see what is needed to spruce it up.
The Lions would do any needed minor repairs and paint or stain the gazebo. We understand that there is a neglected flower bed beside it and we would see what we could do to restore it as well.
If there appears to be any major structural difficulties, we would, of course, consult with Council before proceeding. In the spring, we would welcome any Council members to join us when we go to inspect the gazebo and flower bed.
Please advise us of Council's decision. Sincerely, W ? pqfe.
Lion Bill Pyle, Secretary, Ph: 613-539-8190, Email: sharbot|[email protected]
