Staff Report

To: Mayor and Members of Council

From: Joe Gallivan, Director, Planning & Economic Development, County of Frontenac

Re: Draft Site Alteration By-law

Recommendation: For Information

Date Prepared: July 8th, 2020 Date of Meeting: July 13th, 2020

Background

At the request of the CAO/Clerk, Planning staff were requested to prepare a draft site alteration by-law for consideration by Council.

A site alteration by-law allows a municipality to control the alteration of land levels on a property. ‘Alteration’ can include movement of earth or alteration of existing soil on a property, as well as any fill brought on to a property. It is a by-law that is used by numerous municipalities in Ontario, although none of the four Townships in Frontenac have such a by-law.

Staff researched site alteration by-laws that are currently in place in a number of rural municipalities in Ontario. A draft by-law is attached to this report for discussion purposes.

Should Council want to further consider the implementation of such a by-law, staff will refine the draft by-law, consult with other agencies, and also prepare a sample application for permit. Once Council is satisfied with a ‘final’ draft it is recommend that Council consult with the public prior to passing a by-law.

Recommendation

It is recommended that Council receive this report and the attached draft by-law for information purposes and provide staff with direction for next steps.

Wolie island Waste Transler Site — A351601 File'684A107.00

2.0 Introduction This document presents the methodology, results and interpretation of the 2019 monitoring and operational activities conducted at the Wolfe Island Transfer Station (the Site). Malroz Engineering Inc. (Malroz) was retained by me Township of Frontenac Islands (TFI) to conduct monitoring of the groundwater and surface water at the Site. This report was prepared on behalf of the TFI, using data collected by Malrozand available historical information provided by TFI.

This report has been prepared to ful?llthe requirements for an annual operating report as prescribed by the Wolfe Island Transfer Station EnvironmentalCompliance Approval No. AS81601 issued on November 29, 2000 and as amended on April 16, 2015. 2.1 Background

The Site is located on the north side of Highway 96, approximately 330 metres east ofthe village of Marysville on Wolfe Island (Figure 1, Appendix A). Originally a limestone quarry, the site was of?cially licensed as a waste disposal site in 1970 and remained in effect untilsite closure in 2015. An amended ECA was issued on April 16. 2015 (Appendix F) to reference provisions made by the Land?ll Closure Plan and Transfer Station Design and Operation Plan (prepared by AECOM in June of 2014).

In 1996, groundwater rights overa portion ofthe north adjacent properly were purchased by the Municipality. However, subsequent monitoring showed groundwater impacts beyond the limitsof the initialpurchase. An action plan was initiated by the TFI including acquisition of additional contaminant attenuation zone (CAZ), an updated ECA and an early closure of the site. The action plan was completed in 2015 when the disposal site was closed. and ?nal cover was applied. 2.2 2019 MECP Correspondence

We understand that at the time of reporting, the TFI had received no comments from the Ministry of Environment.Conservation, and Parks (MECP) regarding the 2018 annual report or the 2018 monitoring and sampling activities at the Site,

Total iron surpassed the trigger concentration on October 28, 2019 at sampling locations SW03-1 and SWD3»3 and on November 22, 2019 (con?rmatory resampling event) at SW03~1. Malroz on behalf of TFI. corresponded with the MECP regarding potential mitigation measures to address this reoccurring iron trigger exceedance. Malrozand the MECP met to discuss the iron trigger at the MECP of?ces on December 16. 2019. Following which Malroz issued a letter outlining a proposed response and mitigation to the iron lriggerdated January 30. 2020 (attached). The MECPresponded to the proposed

3.0 Development and Operations 3.1 Site Description

The Wolfe Island Waste Disposal Site is located on the north side of Highway 96 approximately 330 metres east of the Wlage of Marysville on Wolfe Island. The Site currently operates as a waste transfer station and occupies 3.2 hectares on a parcel of land in Lot 3. Conoession 8, North Range, in the former township of Wolfe Island. The Site operates under ECA A3B1601issued on February 24, 1994 and amended on November 29, 2000 and April 16. 2015. The ECA permits a 0.7-hectare waste disposal site (closed in 2015) and transfer site (Appendix F).

Informationregarding Site operations in 2019 was provided through a questionnaire received on February 26, 2020 and subsequent email correspondence (Appendix E). No spills or emergencies were reported at the Site during 2019.

3.2 Transfer Station Operation

The Site was closed In 2015 and has since operated as a waste transfer station for TFI.

3.3 Service Area

The Wolfe Island Transfer Site services the Wolfe island popula?on. Amalgamation of Wolfe and Howe island Townships occurred in 1998. Data forthe formertownships was reported separately by Statistics Canada until2006. Between 1991 and 2001 Wolfe Island has accounted for approximately 70% of the population of the entire municipality. To estimate Wolfe Island population, this proportion was applied to the oensus figures for 2006 and 2011. This proportion was applied to the census ?gures for 2006 and 2011. The estimated population for 2016 (the most recent census year) was provided by TFI. Census populations are illustrated in Table 2.1 below.

3.5 Site Records

Site usage is recorded by TFI by maintaining daily sheets containing the number of vehicles entering the transfer station and corroborated by invoicing received from off-site haulage companies. Daily records indicate the followingfor 2019: - A total of 19,948 vehicles visited the land?ll. Wolfe Island is estimated to have approximately 890 private dwellings occupied by usual residents indicating an average of 22 trips per household per yearto the transfer site, or approximately every other week. This is consistent with previous years. - Recycling depot traf?c records indicate 18,381 vehicles visited the recycling facility. The number of trips to the recycling facility is equal to 92% of the number of trips for waste disposal. This indicates a signi?cant recycling participation rate. - As per the ECA, vermin and vector control services continue to be provided. No outbreaks of vermin or vectors were reported in 2019. 3.6 Hours of Operation

The entrance and exit gates are locked during non-operating hours. The Site's operating hours are: Monday. Wednesday. Saturday 9:00 a.m to 5:00 p.m Sunday (mid~June to mid-September) 9:00 a.m to 5:00 pm Brush collection occurs at the site on Saturdays between 10:00 am and 5:00 pm. Signs are present at the site's entrance. in accordance with the ECA. The Site attendant is present during the hours oi operation and is responsible for directing the public to the waste drop-off and recycling areas within the site. 3.7 Site Inspections

We understand that daily site inspections during operating hours were undertaken at the Site, however, daily records were not maintained in 2019. We recommend inspection sheets be maintained in the future. 3.8 Record Keeping

Field notes and Site records are maintained at the Township offices, located at 1191 County Road 96 Wolfe Island, Ontario.

3.9 Record of Complaints

We understand that no complaints were recorded dLIring2019. 3.10 Assessment of Approved Development and Operation Plan

A copy ofthe Site's closure plan containing a post closure operation plan was not provided at the time of reporting. We understand that the Wolfe Island Transfer Station was operating in general compliance with the approved development and operation plan in 2019. based on no reported changes to the program since the last reporting period. 3.11 Waste Diversion

Several initiatives have been undertaken by the TFI to divert the volume of waste received at the waste transfer site, These initiatives are listed below: - Operation ofa depot recycling facility including bins for: newsprint and box board: plastic and containers: glass; styrofoam; bulky wastes; plastic toys and furniture; scrap metal: e-wastes: cardboard (OCC); organic wastes; used clothing; and returnable bottles. - White goods and tires are segregated for off-site recycling. - Numerous items are restricted including construction wastes. old fences. slumps, bed springs and dead animals. Only wastes that can ?t intoa standard garbage bag can be placed into the waste bins.

Plastics and containers are compacted before removal from site. in addition. the Township purchased a new household waste compactor in June of2019 whichdecreases the frequency in which loads are required to be shipped off site.

Returnable bottles are sorted and returned to the localgeneral store for refunds, proceeds of which are distributed to local charities.

Approximately 197 tonnes of blue box recyclables. e—waste, and other wastes were diverted from land?ll, which represents approximately 37% of the total waste brought to the transfer station in 2019. This diversion rate is 3% higher than it was in 2018.

4.0 Environmental Monitoring Program Malroz conducted the surface water and groundwater monitoring in 2019 at the Wolfe Island Transfer Station, as per the monitoring and sampling program established for the Site by previous consultants, Current analyses were compared to historical results collected from the site, dating back to the year 2000. 4.1 Geological and Hydrogeological Setting

4.1.1 Geologicalsetting

Based on site observation and data obtained to date, Malrozhas reviewed the information and generally concurs with the interpretation presented by AECOM (2018):

“To date a total of 13 boreholes have been completed at the Wolfe Island land?ll. Overall, it was found that only a thin veneer of overburden, ifany. was encountered at the Site. Where observed the overburden consisted of silty sand. till.silty clay, or topsoil, generally only 1 m or less in thickness. Regional surficial geology maps indicate that overburden consists of Paleozoic bedrock drift, complex in the southern portion ofthe site. which [sic] organic deposits along the ravine and shore of Barretts Bay.

‘Boreholes were advanced in the bedrock around the site terminating at total depths ranging from 5.8 to 20.1 m, The bedrock encountered, as described in the borehole logs, consisted of limestone interbedded with shale, dolomite and sandstone. Signi?cant voids were encountered during drilling which has been attributed to karstic dissolution of the carbonate bedrock. The underlying bedrock is of the Gull River Formation; ?ne-grained, light grey to brown limestone, with variable fossil content. Greenish grey, tan—weathering argillaceous to silty dolostone beds are more prevalent towards the base of the Formation. Overburden where present tends to be thin, silty sand till, silty clay or topsoil. (2014, Golder Associates)”

4.1.2 Hydrogeological Setting

According to AECOM, spring (June) and fall (September) 2016 and summer (August) and tall (October) 2017 observations have indicated a northwest and northeast ?ow of shallow groundwater towards Barrett Bay, However, similar to 2018. Malrozobserved a slightlydifferent pattern ofgroundwater flow. in the spring (April)and fall (October) of 2019, the flow was to the northwest and west. Contrary to previous observations, no eastern ?ow component was observed.

According to AECOM, ?ow direction of deep groundwater has historically been to the northeast (spring and fall 2016, summer and fall2017). However, similar to 2018, Malroz observed a signi?cantly different pattern of groundwater ?ow in 2019. In the spring (April)and {all (October), deep groundwater ?owwas to the southwest.

The variation in observed groundwater ?ow patterns may be due to: - monitoring earlier in the spring than previous consultants (April vs May or June) resulting in signi?cant seasonal variabilityin groundwater levels; - signi?cant variability in seasonal precipitation; or - groundwater recharge from surface water in?ltration has been impacted over time due to capping of the waste area in 2015.

Malroz suggests that the well locations be re—surveyed during the spring 2020 monitoring event to assist with con?rmation of groundwater elevations across the site.

Similar to previous years. surface water runoff was observed to be to the north in 2019. Surface water ?ows into a ravine from an intermittentspring which discharges intoan area of open waterwithin a marsh, furlherdischarging north into Barrett Bay. 4.2 Monitoring Program

The groundwater monitoring program includes 16 monitoring wells at 9 locations and 2 residentiallwater supply wells in and around the Site. Monitoring well locations are illustratedin Figure 2. The groundwater monitoring program isdetailed in Table 4.1 below.

In addition to sampling the groundwater monitoring wells, Malroz also collected a sample from 2 residential wells well located at 1394 County Road 96 (the north adjacent property)

Prior to sampling, 3 to 5 well volumes of groundwater (or to dry) were purged from each well. At the completion of purging, water quality was monitored using a Horiba multi— parameter instrument for the following parameters: temperature, pH, dissolved oxygen, oxidizing/reducing potential. conductivity, and turbidity. Each sample destined for metal analyses was flelda?lteredusing a new. disposable. 0.45-micron. inline ?lter. 2019 Field sheets are included in Appendix I.

Samples were collected using laboratory supplied sample bottles containing preservatives appropriate for each parameter, where applicable. Samples were submitted to Caduceon Environmental Laboratories (Caduceon) for analyses of the parameters listed in Section 4.0.

4.6 Landfill Gas Monitoring

Land?llgas was monitored at the site during the spring and fall sampling events at each of the monitoring wells. Results of the land?ll gas monitoring are presented in Table 31 (Appendix B).

4.7 Data Quality Evaluation

Caduceon conducted the analyses for the groundwater and surface water programs. Caduceon is a Canadian Association for Laboratory Accreditation (CALA) accredited laboratory that uses MECP-recognized methods to conduct laboratowanalyses. Caduceon reports that they are accredited to conduct the analyses completed for this investigation.

5.0 Discussion of 2019 Results 5.1 Well Inspection

Results of the well inspection program are summarized in Table B.1 (Appendix B). The well inspection identi?ed wells to be in good condition with one exception. Monitoringwell MWO4-11 was identi?ed as being in fair condition due to damage to the exterior of the casing lid (appears that it was run into with a vehicle at some point). This damage was not observed to affect the integrity of the piezometer. 5.2 Methane Monitoring

The methane monitoring program results are presented in Table B.1 (Appendix B). The concentration of methane in all wells was below the equipment detection limitduring both monitoring events. 5.3 Groundwater Level Monitoring

Groundwater level measurements were recorded prior to sample collection during each sampling event and used to calculate the groundwater elevations. Results are presented in Table B.1 (Appendix B).

Groundwater elevations measured in 2019 were generally consistent with those measured in 2018 with the following exceptions: DH6 and DHS2-S had elevations approximately 2 m lower and DHSZADhad an elevation approximately 9 meters lower in the spring of 2019 than their comparable monitoring event in 2018. The groundwater levels at DHS2-D should be further evaluated in 2020 for continued variability to historic monitoring. 5.4 Groundwater Flow Direction

Groundwater elevations were measured with the following shallow bedrock wells: DH6. DH7—S,DH8-S, DH9-S, DH10-S, DHS1-S, DHS2-S, and MW04v11.The results show a west to north—western ?ow direction through the shallow bedrock at the Site (Figures 3a and 4a, Appendix A).

Deeper bedrock groundwater elevations were measured with the followingwells: DHSAD. DH7-D.DH8-D, DH9-D, DH10-D and DHS1-D. Results suggest a western groundwater ?ow direction towards Barrett Bay (Figures 3b and 4b. Appendix A). DHS2~D was not included inthe interpretation of groundwater flow direction due to the potential anomalous groundwater level.

5,5 Groundwater Analysis Results

5.5.1 Background Water Quality

Monitoring well H2 is assumed to be representative of background water quality at the site. Monitoring well H2 is a domestic well.presumably screened in the deep bedrock. H2 has historically been reported as cross gradient of the inferred groundwater flow and west of the former areas of landlilling. Given these characteristics, it is therefore presumed that monitoring well H2 has not been impacted by land?ll leachate. The following parameters are elevated in the background groundwater: alkalinity, DOC, hardness, conductivity. and iron, above their related ODWS. Table 5.1 includes the background range as well as spring and fall 2019 results for monitoring well H2 of typical leachale indicatorparameters.

Monitoring wells DH5-S and DH5-D are located withinthe former land?llarea and are therefore considered to be representative of leachate quality.

As summarized in Table 5.2.the groundwater quality at monitoringwell DH5-S and DH5-D (to a lesser extent) is characterized by elevated concentrations ofalkalinity,

5.5.3 Downgradient Monitoring Wells

The potential effects of landfill leachate on the surrounding groundwater quality is evaluated by the tollowing groundwater monitoring wells. which are located hydraulically downgradient ol‘ the land?ll: DH-6, DH7rS, DH7-D, DH8~S, DHBAD, DH9—S.DHQ-D, DH10—S, DH10—D,MW04411, DHS1-S, DHS1-D, DHS2~S, and DHS2-D. As established in previous monitoring reports. several leachate indicator parameters (LIPS)have been identi?ed. The main leachate indicator parameters for the site include alkalinity, ammonia.chloride and sodium withsecondary parameters that may also be useful in identifying impacts including barium, boron, DOC, manganese, potassium, ammonia and TDS.

Evidence of leachate impacts to the shallow groundwater are apparent at DHS1-S and to a lesser extent DHS2~S, which are located at the north and northeast boundary of the CA2. Concentrations of L|Ps appear to attenuate between the north and north east property boundary and the down gradient monitoring wells MW1D4- 11 and DH6.

Results from deep groundwater wells generally show LIP concentrations comparable to background and therefore are not anticipated to impacted by leachate. Considering the location of the land?ll near to Lake Ontario and shallow groundwater ?ow to the north towards the lake the hydrogeologic conceptual understanding further supports that the deeper groundwater is not significantly impacted by Ieachate.

iron, hardness and DOC exceedances are not considered solely attributable to the land?ll as the background groundwater has naturallyelevated levels oi‘these three parameters. Exceedances of manganese were not detected in the Ieachate wells indicating that they may be related to anthropogenic sources. Furthermore, parameters which exceeded the ODWS in 2019 represent operational guidelines or aesthetic objectives, and therefore, are not a threat to human health. 5.5.4 Resldentlal Wells

Results from the drinking water well (H1) from the north adjacent property are summarized in Table B.3 (Appendix B). These results were reported below the ODWS except for hardness which exceeded during each at the sampling events. Hardness concentrations in H1 are consistent with previous sampling and those reported in the background well H2. The hardness is considered to be natural to the aquifer. Furthermore, the criteria for this parameter is an operational guideline. and therefore do not pose a threat to human health.

5.6 Surface Water Results

The surface water sample locations are summarized in Table 5.4 below. Results from the surface water sampling program are summarized in Table B.4 (Appendix B).

Table 54: Surface Water Locations April 2019 October 2019 Northing (rn) Easting (m) Northing (rn) Ea g (m) SW03-1 4894761 386046 4894301 386023 SW03-3 4894843 385992 4894548 385994

Surface water stations are located on an intermittentstream whichoriginates between DH7~Sand DH8«S. SW03-1 is located near the emergence ofthe stream. and SVV03«3 is located downgradient in a wet low-lyingarea. Given that the stream originates from a spring. source conditions for this location are inferredto be represented by the upgradient well DH7-S and a surface water background station is not available. (Figure 2, Appendix A). The groundwater at DH7-S did not meet PWQO for total phosphorus and boron in 2019. Concentrations of these parameters have historically been elevated at this location, often exceeding the PWQO.

The following PWQO exceedances were observed In surfacewater during 2019:

THE CORPORATION OF THE TOWNSHIP OF FRONTENAC ISLANDS

REPORT TO COUNCIL

To: MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF COUNCIL Date of Meeting: July 13, 2020 From: Rob Dillabough, CRS-S, CMMI, INFR. SP. - Public Works Manager

CONCERNING: Howe Island Lead Hand Position and North Shore Capital Works

RECOMMENDATION(S): THAT the Council of the Corporation of the Township of Frontenac Islands receive this report for information purposes. AND FURTHER THAT the Manager of Public Works being given direction of one of the Council approved Options set out below.

BACKGROUND/INFORMATION: During the June 8, 2020 Council meeting Council and Staff went into Closed Session to discuss Staffing issues on Howe Island.

Staff were approved in to proceed with the recruitment process of hiring a Public Works Lead Hand person for the Howe Island Ward to assist with the everyday supervisions and work within the Howe Island District for Roads and Marine.  The Public Works Manager posted the Job on Ontario Municipal Jobs and the Association of Ontario Roads Supervisors on June 9th, 2020.  The Posting closed on June 24th, 2020.  The Township received three applications  Two withdrew their applications due to the hourly rate of pay. They asked and we needed to let them know. Two applicants had a vast amount of Road experience.  The other applicant showed interest however there would be a lot of training to prepare this individual for the job. The Township requires someone at this time with a good amount of Roads capabilities and the Township does not have the time to provide training at this point.  The Public Works Manager has looked at the issue and is recommending that Council look at the issue with him.

The proposed work on Howe Island was based on having someone within the position and to assist the Public Works Manager to move forward. The Public Works Manager can supervise and ensure that the two (2) Cross culvert replacements are carried out using Wolfe Staff to assist. Wolfe Staff will be billed to Howe Island as well as my extra time above normal budgeted amounts.  The one (1) on Quinn’s curve

Update Howe Island Lead Hand Position and North Shore Capital Works Page 63 of 91 AGENDA ITEM #b)

 The one (1) on Spithead Road east of the Circle.

Options for consideration:

1. Repost the position back onto the Association of Ontario Road Supervisors, Ontario Municipal Jobs and Municipal World for another three weeks and proceed with the following budgeted work.

With this option the earliest to get the person hired would be around the second week of August 2020.

2. Council could also consider using the approved funds of $ 330,000.00 which was budgeted to Re-Construct North Shore Road to complete the following and cancel the posting for the Lead Hand for Howe Island.

Double Surface Treat the following: a) Resurface North Shore Road from Civic Number 125 to Nakomis entrance app. (4150 meters x $ 53000.00 per kilometer) totalling $ 249,000.00 plus tax. This may last 5 years in certain sections due to base issues. This is not a re-construction process only an overlay.

b) Spithead Road Circle totalling $ 60,000.00. This will definitely last you 10- 12 years due to the Road base being rebuilt and drainage has been dealt with. Both A and B will total app. $ 328,312.50 with the Townships part of the taxes.

This Option would not likely be completed until October 2020, possibly even may get deferred due to scheduling of the Contractor. This option has to be tendered out due to the cost. The award would be sent to Council in August and Notice of Award would be after August Council.

There would also be the extra cost of keeping it patched until the time the Contracted work could be carried out.

Financial Impact: The financial impact for Capital work is very close from the Budgeted proposed work to completing Option 2 for Surface Treatment. The savings in Staffing will be used to offset any extra costs for extra time required by the Public Works Manager to deal with issues and for the Wolfe Crew to assist with the Culverts as outlined above.

Report to Council From: Public Works Manager Dillabough-C.A.O./Clerk Plumley Concerning: Implementation of Touchless Payment Option for the Howe Island Ferry Date: July 13th, 2020

Recommendation: THAT the Council of the Corporation of the Township of Frontenac Islands authorize the implementation of a touchless payment option for the Howe Island Ferry; And Further That staff be authorized to execute an agreement with Honk Mobile Inc. to process payments for the Howe Island Ferry at an ongoing cost of $25 per unit per month plus transaction fees.

Background: On March 17, 2020, the Province of Ontario activated a State of Emergency due to the COVID- 19 pandemic. The County of Frontenac followed suit on March 26, 2020. Transport Canada issued safety requirements for commercial passenger vessels and ferries as they represent a higher risk for viral transmission of infectious respiratory diseases like COVID- 19. Close proximity and frequent interactions among passengers and crew could pose a significant safety risk to travellers, crew, and the Canadian population. As a result, Transport Canada introduced additional safety measures to help mitigate these risks and on April 5, 2020, the Minister of Transport issued an Interim Order, to reduce the risk of spreading COVID-19 on- board commercial passenger vessels carrying more than 12 passengers.

In terms of the Howe Island Ferry, these measures included reducing by 50% the maximum number of passengers to support the two-metre physical distancing rule. Signage was put in place to stress the importance of these measures so that everyone could feel safe while on board.

As a result of these new restrictions, ferry operators were no longer able to accept cash payment from users.

Staff have been investigating touchless payment options for ferry users, which resulted in 2 options.

Option 1 – Honk Mobile Inc: Honk Mobile Inc is a leading provider of on-demand mobile payments for parking. Honk's innovative cloud-based technology streamlines parking by allowing users to search, pay for, and top up parking from a mobile phone, tablet or any internet connected device. Discussions with Honk indicate that this same app may be used to purchase ferry tickets. Honk Mobile Inc also provides a “HonkTAP” option, the industry’s only tap-to-pay smart technology that allows passengers to pay with a simple tap of their phone. Simple signage with a tap or QR code can be installed. Passengers who decide to use the tap option don’t need to download the app. It will take them directly to the payment page.

Howe Island Ferries Touchless Payment Page 69 of 91 AGENDA ITEM #c)

The cost of Honk would include a one-time Production & Fabrication fee (per unit/sign) of $250**, with Service, Maintenance & Support (per unit per month) of $25 plus credit card and processing fees as follows: Transaction Fee: $0.25 per transaction Visa & MasterCard: 2.99% American Express: 3.99% Other: 3.99% PayPal: 2.90% + $0.30 **Note: As a result of COVID the $250 production and fabrication fee is being waived until July 15th. Option 2 – Parking Box This option would require the physical installation of a parking box pay machine (similar to those seen in downtown Kingston parking lots). Staff reached out to Precise ParkLink (CWT Compact) which provides a successful combination of innovation and proven technology, with durable and secure design and advanced features such as video enabled colour screen, contactless credit card payment, software controlled buttons, license plate entry and audio interface.

The total cost of two parking boxes was quoted at $26,133.51. This would be in addition to site preparation and electrical requirements.

Staff are recommending Option 1 – Honk Mobile Inc as it represents a more modern and user friendly option as users can remain in their vehicle to purchase a ferry ticket. It also represents a more cost effective option as the number of individual ferry tickets purchased would not warrant the investment of the larger machine. In addition, Honk Mobile can be set up to accept payments for annual passes.

The County is working with Frontenac Islands to develop a seamless solution that would benefit both the Howe Island Ferry and the Township Ferry users. The parking box option would require 2 boxes, one at each ferry location. Honk is a mobile cloud based application, users can download the app to a smartphone and pay directly or simply tap the signage which will take them directly to the payment page.

As well, the Honk app is utilized by the City of Kingston for payment in their parking lots, which means that it will be familiar to many users.

Financial Implications: In order to mitigate the health and safety risk to ferry employees (due to Covid) we have not been collecting revenue since March. These contactless payment options will allow the ferry to again collect revenue. MTO will pay for 80% of the ferry’s operating expenses, with the Township of Frontenac Islands coming up with the remaining 20% through ticket and pass sales. Enabling contactless payment will allow Frontenac Islands to continue its revenue stream from ticket sales while maintaining our commitment to the health and safety of Marine Services employees.

THE CORPORATION OF THE TOWNSHIP OF FRONTENAC ISLANDS

REPORT TO COUNCIL

To: MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF COUNCIL Date of Meeting: May 21, 2020 From: Tim Hawkins, Fire Chief – Wolfe Island District Rob Dillabough, CRS-S, CMMI, INFR. SP. - Public Works Manager

CONCERNING: Relocation of Fire Pump due to Decommissioning of Old Fire Hall

RECOMMENDATION(S): THAT the Council of the Corporation of the Township of Frontenac Islands receive this report for information purposes. AND FURTHER THAT the Fire Chief be given direction to move the Emergency Fire Pump to a location on Road 96 west of the Village of Marysville on Township property on the north of the Road allowance.

BACKGROUND/INFORMATION  During the Facilities tour in October 2019 Council and Staff looked at the Old Fire Hall on Centre Street.  The concerns with the building is that the south wall foundation was moving and the south wall was cracking and shifting.  The CBO looked at the building to find that the building was unsafe.  The recommendation was the building needed to come down in 2020  The PWM looked after getting Hydro and Propane unhooked from the building in April.  The CBO issued a compliance order to leave the building on June , 2020  The Public Works Manager applied for the Permit for demolition on June 22, 2020.  The CBO issued the Permit for demolition on June 23, 2020.  The Fire Chief booked their Contractor to start taking the building down on July 13, 2020.  A Site for all materials to be taken to at Westendorps following the booking of the Contractor.  The Chief worked with the PWM to determine a suitable location for the placement for the Fire Pump to get the system up and going.  Hitchcock Street allowance was looked at and the determination was made that another shore well would interfere with the ones on each side.

Relocation of Fire Pump due to Decommissioning of Old Fire Hall Page 71 of 91 AGENDA ITEM #a)

 The determination was made that the area east of the Quarry gate would be the best due to the Road siding and width which would allow for a Storage Container to be placed to house the pump and the Trucks to pull along the side to load.  Protection of the Fire Firefighters would be required due to a Road. The determination was to use 3 New Jersey Barriers to protect the equipment and men during pumping at the same time protecting the Municipal Asset in the event a Vehicle were to leave the road preventing from striking the Storage Container.  New Jersey barriers are an effective safety barrier for short distances.  The Township will post two signs for Fire Truck loading area to warn motorists of the area.

The Break-down of the costs to move the Pump are as follows: I have divided the costs to the penny Wolfe Fire

Price of Storage Container for Pump Storage - $ 5100.00 Price for Spray foam insulation with Fire Retardant - $ 1730.00 Safety Door Latch for Quick release (Estimate) $ 200.00 Base Slabs (4 Slabs) - $ 160.00 Signs $ 100.00 New battery (Estimate) $ 110.00 Sub-total $ 7400.00 Taxes $ 462.50 Total $ 7862.50

Wolfe Roads Estimate for Stone for Loading area and Shoreline - $ 1240.00 Estimate for Shore well casing - $ 1300.00 Equipment Rentals - $ 2520.00 New Jersey Barriers (3 Barriers) - $ 2340.00 Sub-total $ 7400.00 Taxes $ 462.50 Total $ 7862.00

Financial Impact: The Fire supplies part can be budget through the Wolfe Modernization which has enough to cover Fires end. There will be money remaining in this fund once this comes out

The Roads:  Stone will be budget for through Stone which is in the Stock pile at Quarry.  Equipment Rentals will come from Contracted Service

Relocation of Fire Pump due to Decommissioning of Old Fire Hall Page 72 of 91 AGENDA ITEM #a)

 Well Casing will come from Equipment Replacement due to the Roads not having to replace a broke down water pump due to the sharing of services with Fire.  Jersey Barriers can come from Roadside Maintenance which will be minimal

A. The cost for the Stone will come from Roads under Gravel. This way the Roads Department can use the Pumping System to load the Water Truck due to the Winter Dock being too busy to use for the next three years.

B. Council can choose to take all of the Roads cost out of the Modernization if they choose which has enough to cover the costs.

Report to Council

From: Fire Chief Mike Quinn Howe Island Fire & Rescue

Concerning: Parking at the entrance to the Baseline Trail (Howe Island)

Date: June 22, 2020

Background: Whereas the use of the Baseline Trail on Howe Island has increased and whereas there is a parking lot for the trail users, there continues to be a few users who park on Howe Island Dr. at the entrance to the trail. This potentially blocks the access onto the trail should there be a need for an emergency response on the trail. And further this concern has been brought to our attention by a number of residents of the community.

Recommendations: That the location directly at the entrance of the trail on Howe Island Drive be designated as a “No Parking Zone” with the proper signage to this effect. This will ensure for open access for emergency services should there be an emergency on the trail and that all users of the trail be encouraged to park in the designated parking lot.

Financial Impact: To be determined by Public Works.

AND FURTHER THAT additional trucks be allowed to join the queue on a first come-first loaded basis as is standard for ferry boarding.

AND FURTHER THAT this accommodation be granted based upon the needs of the farming community.

Background:

The period required for the priority boarding status will be dependent on timing of the crops to be transported. Ferry Captains will be advised accordingly.

Report to Council From: C.A.O./Clerk Plumley Concerning: Resolution on Transition to Full Producer Responsibility Date: July 13th, 2020

RESOLUTION: Transition to Full Producer Responsibility The Township of Frontenac Islands would like the opportunity to take part in new program to transition to full producer responsibility which is at present not available to Municipalities of under 5,000. It is our hope that smaller municipalities such as ours will be allowed to participate in the new Full Producer Responsibility Initiative; WHEREAS the amount of single-use plastics leaking into our lakes, rivers, waterways is a growing area of public concern; WHEREAS reducing the waste we generate and reincorporating valuable resources from our waste stream into new goods can reduce GHGs significantly; WHEREAS the transition to full producer responsibility for packaging, paper and paper products is a critical to reducing waste, improving recycling and driving better economic and environmental outcomes; WHEREAS the move to a circular economy is a global movement, and that the transition of Blue Box programs would go a long way toward this outcome; WHEREAS the Municipality of the Township of Frontenac Islands is supportive of a timely, seamless and successful transition of Blue Box programs to full financial and operational responsibility by producers of packaging, paper and paper products; AND WHEREAS the Association of Municipalities of Ontario has requested municipal governments with Blue Box programs to provide an indication of the best date to transition our Blue Box program to full producer responsibility; THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED: THAT the Municipality of the Township of Frontenac Islands would like to transition their Blue Box program to full producer responsibility December 31, 2023. AND THAT this decision is based on the fact that our collection contract for Blue Box material has been extended to September 30th, 2023 and our processing contract for Blue Box material also expires December 31, 2023. AND FURTHER THAT any questions regarding this resolution can be directed to Darlene Plumley C.A.O./Clerk or [email protected] AND FURTHER THAT the resolution be forwarded to the Association of Municipalities of Ontario and the Ontario Ministry of the Environment, Conservation and Parks

BACKGROUND: Our municipality is very concerned that if there is not a program for small municipalities, the Blue Box collection protocols and recycling efforts in our community will have been a waste and our recycling efforts will end up in landfills.

Frontenac Islands Council

Re: Trailer Priority

July 6, 2020

Dear Council

We are writing to request trailer priority on the ferry for an event we are hosting through Eastern Ontario Western Gaming Association.

Setting up for the trailer priority and booking times helps to reduce many trailers coming at once for a specific boat and helps alleviate congestion on the dock.

With the COVID-19 pandemic still ongoing, we have taken the liberty of speaking with three health department employees to ensure that we run our event appropriately. They have all advised us that as long as we are following the guidelines for an outdoor event, including only 10 people per trailer, and 10 people allowed in the riding ring at one time, then we are able to proceed.

We would like to propose that we set up times for the participants to book themselves in on specific ferry times. This schedule will decrease the congestion of trailers and wait times, and allow for continuous flow of traffic over the weekend. Our event will begin on Friday August 14, 2020. We would like to have scheduling times from the 11:30am to 9:00pm ferry on Friday. As well as Sunday August 16, 2020 from the 12:00pm to 8:30pm ferry returning to Kingston. These trailers will be required to arrive 20 minutes before their allotted ferry time. This request will help keep traffic moving in both directions so that there are not multiple trailers in line at once.

We are positive that the students and ferry crew will be very helpful in ensuring this system will work efficiently.

Sincerely yours,

Kirsten Goldie & Chad Hulton

Dear Head of Council:

The COVID-19 outbreak has touched everyone in the province, creating personal and financial hardship, and resulting in losses far greater than anyone could have imagined. We are making steady progress in the safe reopening of the province, and we acknowledge and celebrate those who went above and beyond through this crisis.

I am writing to inform you that on July 8, 2020, our government introduced the COVID- 19 Economic Recovery Act, 2020, to help get Ontario back on track. Our proposed bill will address three critical needs Ontario faces: restarting jobs and development; strengthening communities; and creating opportunity for people.

Our government recognizes the key role that municipalities play in restarting the economy, and that their efficient functioning and economic sustainability is critical to Ontario’s future success. We are also continuing to negotiate with our federal partners to ensure communities across Ontario receive the urgent financial support they need. We know that municipalities require fair and flexible investment to protect front line services and help restart the economy.

This bill includes proposals that will enable municipal councils and local boards to meet electronically on a permanent basis and allow municipal councils to decide if they wish to have proxy voting for their members. Our government also proposes to finalize the community benefits charges framework; enhance the Minister of Municipal Affairs and Housing’s existing zoning order authority to provide more certainty when fast tracking the development of transit oriented communities; make it faster to update and harmonize the Building Code so that we can break down interprovincial trade barriers, and permanently establish the office of the Provincial Land and Development Facilitator to help solve complex land use issues. We are also working on optimizing provincial lands and other key provincial strategic development projects that will help facilitate economic recovery efforts.

My ministry will be hosting a technical information briefing on the proposed community benefits charges framework, including proposed changes to development charges and parkland dedication, so that municipal staff can gain a better understanding of the proposal. The technical briefing will take place in the near future and invitations from the Assistant Deputy Minister of Local Government and Planning Policy Division to municipal Chief Administrative Officers, Treasurers and Chief Planners will be forthcoming. .../2

In addition to initiatives that I have outlined above from my ministry, there are several other proposals included in our proposed legislation that will support your communities. Changes proposed will modernize our outdated environmental assessment framework, provide more local say on future landfill sites, and ensure strong environmental oversight, while supporting faster build-out of vital transport and transit infrastructure projects to support our economy. Municipally-run courts will be able to use technology to deliver services remotely and we are also moving to fill justice of the peace vacancies faster and more transparently.

We will be extending the validity period of unused marriage licences and protecting the province’s most vulnerable consumers who rely on payday loans, by proposing limits on related interest rates and fees.

Also proposed is the reduction of regulatory burdens on farming while preserving the environmental rules that will support this vital part of our economy. Businesses will be able to count on clear, focused and effective rules that do not compromise people’s health, safety or the environment through our changes that continue to focus on cutting red tape. At the same time, our changes will allow health and safety standards to be updated more quickly to ensure worker safety in a changing economy.

As the province continues to reopen and the economy recovers, it’s more critical than ever to position Ontario as a top-tier destination for investment, domestic growth, and job creation. A key measure to support this objective is the creation of a new investment attraction agency, Invest Ontario, that will promote the province as a key investment destination and work closely with regional partners to coordinate business development activities.

Our proposed changes will also help our communities respond in part to the challenges that this outbreak has brought to our education system. Changes proposed would allow school boards to select the best candidates for director of education for their respective communities. We will also reduce red tape that is preventing access to school for some First Nation students and by limiting unproductive suspensions for our very youngest students. Students with severe learning disabilities will have an opportunity to complete their studies in the upcoming school year and by broadening the mandates of TVO and TFO, our broadcasters will be able to support students’ learning needs better during these challenging times.

Through this proposed legislation, we will take the first step towards a strong restart and recovery. More information on our proposals can be found on the Legislative Assembly of Ontario’s website.

Our greatest challenges lie ahead of us, and we know we cannot overcome them alone. It’s time for everyone to play a role in rebuilding Ontario together. We will ensure no community or region is left behind. Every community must recover if all of Ontario is to grow and prosper again.
