2018 Financial Statements Consolidated Financial Statements of CORPORATION OF THE TOWNSHIP OF CENTRAL FRONTENAC Year ended December 31, 2018 Consolidated Financial Statements of CORPORATION OF THE TOWNSHIP OF CENTRAL FRONTENAC Year ended December 31, 2018 CORPORATION OF THE TOWNSHIP OF CENTRAL FRONTENAC Page Management's Responsibility for the Consolidated Financial Statements 1 Independent Auditors' Report 2 Consolidated Statement of Financial Position 4 Consolidated Statement of Operations and Accumulated Surplus 5 Consolidated Statement of Change in Net Financial Assets 6 Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows 7 Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements 8 Schedule of Segment Disclosure 24 CORPORATION OF THE TOWNSHIP OF CENTRAL FRONTENAC TRUST FUNDS Independent Auditors' Report 25 Statements of Financial Position 27 Statements of Continuity 28 Notes to Financial Statements 29 1 INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT To: The Members of Council, Inhabitants and Ratepayers of: Corporation of The Township of Central Frontenac Opinion We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Corporation of The Township of Central Frontenac which comprise the consolidated statement of financial position as at December 31, 2018 and the consolidated statements of operations and accumulated surplus, change in net financial assets and cash flows for the year then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information. In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Corporation of The Township of Central Frontenac as at December 31, 2018 and the results of its operations and cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with Canadian public sector accounting standards. Basis for Opinion We conducted our audit in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Corporation of The Township of Central Frontenac in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the consolidated financial statements in Canada, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. Other Matter The consolidated financial statements of the Corporation of The Township of Central Frontenac for the year ended December 31, 2017 were audited by other accountants. The previous accountants expressed an unmodified opinion on those statements on April 24, 2018. Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with Canadian public sector accounting standards and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Corporation of The Township of Central Frontenac’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Corporation of The Township of Central Frontenac or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so. Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Corporation of The Township of Central Frontenac’s financial reporting process. 2 27 Princess Street - Suite 410, Kingston, ON, K7L 1A3, Telephone: 613-546-3111 Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated financial statements. As part of an audit in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also: Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Corporation of The Township of Central Frontenac’s internal control. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management. Conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the consolidated financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Corporation of The Township of Central Frontenac to cease to continue as a going concern. Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the consolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation. We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

  • A Proposal From: North Frontenac Little Theatre To: Central Frontenac Township Council “Toward a Permanent Presence at the Oso Hall”
    A PROPOSAL FROM: NORTH FRONTENAC LITTLE THEATRE TO: CENTRAL FRONTENAC TOWNSHIP COUNCIL “TOWARD A PERMANENT PRESENCE AT THE OSO HALL” WE APPROACH COUNCIL AS A LONG SERVING COMMUNITY THEATRE IN SEARCH OF A NEW PERFORMANCE VENUE THAT WOULD PROVIDE US FINANCIAL SECURITY, STABILITY AND THE ASSURANCE OF THE FUTURE OF OUR PROUD INSTITUTION. JUNE 23, 2020 1. BACKGROUND ➘ NFLT is a proud, not for profit, volunteer-driven, community theatre that faithful audiences support through ticket purchases which offset production costs allowing us to stay afloat ➘ After forty years of crowd-pleasing performances at Sharbot Lake High School, and more recently, at the Granite Ridge Education Centre, NFLT came to the decision earlier this year that continued use of the school stage as our main venue is no longer viable. Reasons for this decision vary greatly and include new user fees that the Limestone District School Board put in place last year ➘ At a Council Meeting on November 12, 2019, we requested township support concerning this dilemma, and floated the idea of adopting the Oso Community Hall as our new venue. Council reacted favourably to the idea and waived rental fees for our trial production at the hall. 1 ➘ NFLT next approached the Central Frontenac Recreation Committee. They voted unanimously to allow us membership under their Arts and Culture sector, and asked Council liaison, Sherry Whan, to bring the results of this vote back to Council for discussion and hopeful ratification. 2. RATIONALE ➘ With the possibility of township support in terms of financial security, the Oso Hall is the obvious best bet for an entertainment venue in Sharbot Lake that suits NFLT’s needs.

We stand together with the Chairs of the Eastern Ontario Wardens’ Caucus, the Eastern Ontario Mayors’ Caucus, and the Eastern Ontario Regional Broadband Network in their efforts to urge you to get behind the Project. The Gig Project is the right one for eastern Ontario. It ensures that homes, businesses, schools, medical offices, and other institutions as well as seasonal properties get connected through fibre optic cable - the best technology for today and the future. EORN studies highlight the economic benefits that would come our way with its Gig Project. Job creation, additional employment income, more innovation, reduced health care costs among other things add up to a winning solution for the people of eastern Ontario. The EORN model works. Over the years, we’ve seen EORN successfully get more private sector investment than anticipated in its public private partnership projects. EORN is efficient, cost effective and nimble. You know you can rely on its professionals to get the job done. We appreciate the leadership you have both shown by securing historic levels of funding for building out broadband infrastructure. You have made this critical infrastructure a priority for 1 both Canada and Ontario by together earmarking $7 billion for broadband.
