Kawartha Lakes Downtown Parking Strategy 2019-10-29 FINAL.Indd Welcome to the Kawartha Lakes Downtown Parking Strategy Public Information Centre Purpose of the meeting: • Present the draft parking strategy findings; and • Obtain feedback on the study recommendations. Lindsay Bobcaygeon Fenelon Falls Kawartha Lakes Downtown Parking Strategy Study Scope and Objectives Objective: Analyze opportunities and needs for parking in the core areas of Lindsay, Bobcaygeon, and Fenelon Falls while: » Ensuring adequate future parking supply; » Addressing stakeholder concerns; » Reviewing parking service delivery models; and » Developing solutions for meeting future growth-related parking demands. Kawartha Lakes Downtown Parking Strategy Public Information Centre #1 – Common Themes Common themes identifed during previous public and stakeholder consultation: » Perception of limited available parking supply, especially in the summer; » Poor wayfnding signage for public parking lots; » Unclear long-vehicle parking availability; » Lack of proactive parking enforcement; » Lack of accessible parking; and » Variation in approaches to cash-in-lieu of parking. Kawartha Lakes Downtown Parking Strategy Bobcaygeon Study Area and Inventory The Bobcaygeon Downtown Area provides approximately 650 parking spaces, plus on-street neighbourhood parking, consisting of the following estimates: » Public on-street parking (275 spaces); » Public off-street parking (75 spaces); and » Publicly accessible private parking (300 spaces). Kawartha Lakes Downtown Parking Strategy Bobcaygeon Existing Parking Utilization System-wide parking demand was observed to peak in the summer during the weekday between 12:30 p.m. and 1:30 p.m. with a peak utilization of 66%. During the period of peak parking demand, the individual parking assets were observed to operate at: » Public on-street parking: 56% utilization; » Public off-street parking: 77% utilization; and » Publicly accessible private parking: 71% utilization. Kawartha Lakes Downtown Parking Strategy Bobcaygeon Existing Parking Utilization Suffcient parking opportunities were observed system-wide. However, some individual lots and street segments were observed to operate near capacity or otherwise beyond the 85% (for public parking) or 90% (for private parking) utilization threshold. Conclusion: It is likely valid that some users perceive a shortage in parking with occasional diffculty in fnding a spot at some of the busier parking assets. However, suffcient parking opportunities were observed to be available at underutilized parking assets within an acceptable walking distance. Therefore, the existing parking system is considered suffcient to meet the current demand. Kawartha Lakes Downtown Parking Strategy Bobcaygeon Projected Parking Demand (2041) In Bobcaygeon’s downtown area, parking demand is anticipated to grow by approximately 150 spaces by 2041, based on the Provincial Growth Plan’s population projection for Kawartha Lakes. No changes to the parking supply are anticipated other than those we recommend on the next board. During the period of peak parking demand in 2041, the parking system, if unaltered, is projected to operate at: » Public on-street parking: 88% utilization; » Public off-street parking: 97% utilization; and » Publicly accessible private parking: 85% utilization. Kawartha Lakes Downtown Parking Strategy Bobcaygeon Projected Parking Demand (2041) Public on-street and off-street parking demand is anticipated to exceed the 85% utilization threshold by approximately 15 spaces in 2041 if no demand management or expansionary measures are taken. The following recommended measures from the parking management plan are anticipated to enable the public parking system to manage parking demand over 2020-2041: » Introduction of an on-street parking limit of 2 hours (as in Lindsay); » Proactive enforcement of on-street parking using handheld license plate recognition to better manage parking duration; » Creation of regular and long-vehicle parking through the redevelopment of Bobcaygeon Beach Park; and » Installation of wayfnding signage. Kawartha Lakes Downtown Parking Strategy Bobcaygeon Projected Parking Demand (2041) Conclusion: With the parking management plan in place, the public parking system is anticipated to operate below the 85% utilization threshold in 2041. The anticipated future parking system is therefore considered suffcient to meet the anticipated future demand. If parking utilization is not suffciently distributed and accommodated, the purchase of land for additional public parking should be considered. Kawartha Lakes Downtown Parking Strategy Parking Management Plan: Parking Supply Triggers Parking supply triggers and their recommended course of action are outlined below: Parking Trigger Recommended Action System-wide parking utilization is below 85% where particular on-street segments or parking lots operate above No action needed. 85% utilization, but underutilized parking opportunities are available within walking distance. Adopt strategies for more effcient distribution of parking System-wide parking utilization is below 85% where groups utilization, such as wayfnding systems, proactive by-law of on-street segments or parking lots operate above 85% enforcement and changes to policies (such as cash-in-lieu, utilization and where other parking opportunities within variable parking prices, parking user restrictions, or time walking distance are limited. restrictions). Adopt strategies that manage parking demand, such as increased parking prices or introduction of paid on-street parking. When all non-expansionary options are exhausted, System-wide parking exceeds 85% where many on-street construct additional parking assets (e.g. a centrally-located segments and parking lots operate above 85% utilization. structured parking facility). Added capacity should be based on the observed parking demand and anticipated parking demand growth. Kawartha Lakes Downtown Parking Strategy Parking Management Plan: Bobcaygeon » Introduce an on-street parking limit, starting with a 2-hour duration, actively enforced by Kawartha Lakes Municipal Law Enforcement Division, and determine if a further reduction in duration is warranted; » Monitor parking utilization and consider exploring handheld license plate recognition if utilization increases within the next few years due to on-street duration-based parking; » Create regular and long-vehicle parking through the redevelopment of Bobcaygeon Beach Park; » Add at least one accessible parking space to each of Lots M3, M4, and M5; » Create a long-vehicle route plan and advertise it online; and » Introduce a time limit at the Foodland parking lot (Lot P2), in consultation with Foodland owners, and deputize Foodland owners and/or managers to empower them to enforce the parking lot themselves. Kawartha Lakes Downtown Parking Strategy Parking Management Plan: Kawartha Lakes » Make changes to cash-in-lieu of parking (currently under review); » Add wayfnding signage; » Add the municipal parking lot locations to Google Maps; » Create an online parking map for Kawartha Lakes; » Introduce in-house snow plowing of public off-street lots; and » Increase parking fnes for overtime parking from $30 to $40 and overnight parking from $20 to $30. Kawartha Lakes Downtown Parking Strategy Next Steps » Review preliminary recommendations with consideration for stakeholder, public and staff feedback; » Finalize the study conclusions and recommendations and incorporate them into a draft implementation plan for Kawartha Lakes staff review; » Prepare a draft study for Kawartha Lakes staff review; » Prepare a fnal study based on Kawartha Lakes staff comments; and » Present the fnal study, including fndings and recommendations, to Kawartha Lakes City Council.

AUTHOR'S PREFACE This history has been appearing serially through the Lindsaj "Watchman-Warder" for the past eleven months and is now issued in book form for the first time. The occasion for its preparation is, of course, the one hundredth anniversary of the opening up of Victoria county. Its chief purposes are four in number: — (1) to place on record the local details of pioneer life that are fast passing into oblivion; (2) to instruct the present generation of school-children in the ori- gins and development of the social system in which they live; (3) to show that the form which our county's development has taken has been largely determined by physiographical, racial, social, and economic forces; and (4) to demonstrate how we may, after a scien- tific study of these forces, plan for the evolution of a higher eco- nomic and social order. The difficulties of the work have been prodigious. A Victoria County Historical Society, formed twenty years ago for a similar purpose, found the field so sterile that it disbanded, leaving no re- cords behind. Under such circumstances, I have had to dig deep.

  • Protecting the Land You Love. from the Chair of the Board of Directors & the Executive Director
    2015 ANNUAL REPORT PROTECTING THE LAND YOU LOVE. FROM THE CHAIR OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS & THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR “We are so thrilled that the vision of Boyd Island protected forever has come to fruition.” What a year we have had! 2015 ended with the Kawartha Land Trust’s (KLT) biggest land donation ever: beautiful Big (Boyd/Chiminis) Island in Pigeon Lake was donated to KLT thanks to the generosity of the previous owners, Mike & Terry Wilson, and the passion and commitment of the local community. In four short months, we were able to reach our $1M campaign goal and accept this incredible donation. We are so thrilled that the vision of Big (Boyd/Chiminis) Island protected forever has come to fruition. There is no doubt that the work leading up to the transfer of this property in December required an incredible commitment on the part of the whole KLT team. But 2015 was a year of other accomplishments that should not be overlooked. The goal we set out at the beginning of our 2012-2015 Strategic Plan to diversify our funding sources has been achieved, with KLT now relying less on Government grants and more on gifts from our community of donors. This healthier revenue picture provides the flexibility to ensure we can direct our funds to the highest priority needs. Near the end of 2015, our Board of Directors was significantly strengthened with the recruitment of a number of new Directors: John McWilliams, Don Gillespie, Rick Kemp, Eva Kennedy, Lori Rogers and Ben Sämann. With backgrounds in finance, law, marketing, natural resource management and business, these new Directors are enhancing the capacity of the Board to ensure good governance of KLT.

    Master Plan – For the Network Design of Roads Depots for the City of Kawartha Lakes Presented by Stirling Rothesay Consulting Inc. September 26, 2017 1.0 Background . Through amalgamation, the City of Kawartha Lakes inherited 15 Roads and Fleet Maintenance Depots located throughout the City in various sizes, styles, and states of condition. Since then, the Depots have continued to deteriorate, and many are quickly approaching the end of their expected service life of 60 years. To address the City’s concern about the ability of these Depots to meet the growing demand for services and legislative requirements, Stirling Rothesay Consulting was retained to complete a Master Plan to recommend the preferred Depot network design. 2 The current Depot network design is Burnt RiverCoboconk Burnt River shown to the right.
