CARRIED 539 CORRESPONDENCE (A) _________________________________________ 540 SECTION I - ITEMS FOR AUTHORITY ACTION RES.#A257/12 - MUD CREEK RESTORATION PROJECT Approval to enter into an Agreement with the City of Toronto to implement restoration works in Mud Creek. Moved by: Mike Mattos Seconded by: Dave Ryan THAT approval be granted to enter into an agreement with the City of Toronto to implement restoration works in Mud Creek; THAT the agreement be subject to availability of funding from the City of Toronto; AND FURTHER THAT authorized Toronto and Region Conservation Authority (TRCA) officials be directed to take any action necessary to implement the agreement including obtaining any required approvals and the signing and execution of documents. CARRIED BACKGROUND The City of Toronto and TRCA have been concerned with the erosion issues affecting Mud Creek for several years. In 2010, a geomorphic assessment of Mud Creek was commissioned by Toronto Water titled Mud Creek Geomorphic Systems Master Plan. Mud Creek was divided into six reaches, each separated by culverts. A map of the delineated reaches is shown in Attachment 1. In the winter of 2012 TRCA implemented restoration works at the highest priority area, Reach 1, located at the most downstream limits of the creek adjacent to Evergreen at the Brick Works, using the design recommendations from the aforementioned Master Plan and funding from its 2012 erosion capital budget. Following the success of this project, Toronto Water and Parks, Forestry & Recreation (PF&R) staff asked TRCA to implement restoration works on behalf of the City of Toronto at additional priority areas, the next planned area being Reach 5, scheduled to commence in February 2013. The proposed work for Mud Creek Reach 5 includes a 24 m extension of a perched 1800 mm diameter corrugated metal culvert, the removal of failed gabion basket walls and bank stabilization with armourstone retaining walls and a vegetated rock buttress. The channel grade will be maintained with a plunge pool, armourstone retaining weirs and stone riffle features throughout the length of the reach. The primary intent is to improve the bank stability along Reach 5 and improved flow management, however secondary objectives include invasive species removal and intensive plantings with native vegetation for improved terrestrial habitat conditions. Future additional works will be implemented by TRCA at the request of the City of Toronto on a project-by-project basis, subject to confirmation of available funding and the receipt of all necessary permits and approvals. 541 RATIONALE PF&R staff has requested the assistance of TRCA's Restoration Services Division with the implementation of restoration works in Mud Creek based on TRCA's intimate knowledge of Mud Creek through ongoing annual monitoring and several past restoration projects, most recently Reach 1. The scope of work to be undertaken by TRCA consists of the following general tasks: 1. Prepare a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) for the Mud Creek Restoration Project. 2. Provide detailed cost estimates for each identified project area (e.g. Reach 5). 3. Prepare, issue, award and manage all subcontracts for equipment, materials and services related to the construction of works. 4. Implement the works as per the approved designs. 5. Provide financial and other documentation as specified in the MOU. Recognizing that the City of Toronto is funding the implementation of the works, TRCA will adopt the City of Toronto's purchasing policy regarding the use of union and skilled trade workers for any subcontracted work. FINANCIAL DETAILS The preliminary budget for Reach 5 is estimated at $775,000 excluding HST, plus a 10% contingency to be expended by TRCA with permission from the City of Toronto. The cost of the project is 100% recoverable from the City of Toronto.

  • Readers Respond to Pickering Mayor's Position
    Readers’ responses in the News Advertiser to the article “Recouping Canada’s $150-million investment,” by Pickering Mayor Dave Ryan, August 23, 2017 Pickering mayor seems to be unaware of the number of jobs in agriculture Opinion Aug 25, 2017, Pickering News Advertiser Mayor Dave Ryan’s column, where he attempts to promote a business-as-usual case for an airport on the Pickering Lands instead of the very best use of the lands for agriculture, simply doesn’t reflect the reality of our changing world. Contrary to the number of jobs he claims agriculture would provide, he’s obviously unaware that more than 640,000 people in the province are employed in agri-food industries, and in 2013, agri-food systems provided one in eight jobs in Canada, employing more than 2.2 million people. Forecasts from the Greater Toronto Airport Authority about capacity at Pearson have proven consistently wrong in the past and if the GTAA had auspices over Hamilton-Cambridge where existing infrastructure would easily support an airport, it would never be making a case for an airport in Pickering. These lands represent 95 per cent of Canada’s remaining five per cent triple-A farmland — the very best there is — and this precious and irreplaceable infrastructure comes already included. Maybe Mayor Ryan should concentrate on producing the 25,000 jobs that we were promised Seaton would supply for Pickering, instead of reducing the overwhelming future opportunities that the agri-food industry could supply. Angie Jones. Pickering Online Comment re this letter: By Mark, Aug 26 2017 9:15AM The Mayors comments are spot on.

    Durham Region Joint Chambers and Boards of Trade June 17, 2019 The Honourable Marc Garneau Minister of Transportation House of Commons Ottawa, Ontario K1A 0A6 Minister Garneau: Re: Amalgamation of the Ports of Oshawa and Hamilton We are writing regarding the representation on the Board of Directors of the newly amalgamated ports of Oshawa and Hamilton. Our message comes on behalf of the Durham Region Joint Ch ambers of Commerce and Boards of Trade, which is comprised of eight individual chambers, and represents nearly 3,000 member businesses in Durham Region. We are asking that you please take into consideration the Durham Region and ensure that there is equa l representation when accounting for the structure and membership of the new Board of Directors. We are a unique region, with our own economic priorities and strengths . The businesses of Durham Region deserve a voice in the decision making of such an imp ortant economic driver. Last year, the Port experienced its highest tonnage ever. Over the past 5 years , the Port Authority has built and paid for a rail spur , at a cost of over $4 Million, making it fully intermodal and greatly enhancing its marketing opportunities. It is in the process of finalizing a grain terminal to serve the agricultural sector , which is the largest single business sector in the Region of Durham. The Port continues to be an economic engine for the region it serves and the Chambers of Commerce and Boards of Trade in the region. We encourage you to place your support in the people of our region and allow us to continue to lend a strong voice under any new governance model .

  • Durham Region Joint Chambers and Boards of Trade
    INFO-18-208 Durham Region Joint Chambers and Boards of Trade November 16, 2018 Dan Carter Oshawa Mayor-Elect and Oshawa Council 50 Centre Street South Oshawa, ON L1H 3Z7 Dear Mayor-Elect Carter, We are writing to confirm the Durham Region Joint Chambers and Boards of Trade’s opposition to the Superlinx proposal from the Toronto Region Board of Trade (“TRBOT”). While there are issues with transit and transit funding, we do not believe Superlinx is the solution. Over the past year, TRBOT has advocated for the uploading of public transit in the “Toronto-Waterloo Corridor” to the province, under a new entity known as Superlinx. Further to its advocacy, at the 2018 Ontario Chamber of Commerce (“OCC”) AGM this past spring, TRBOT introduced a resolution to upload transit. In the week leading up to the OCC AGM, TRBOT reached out for the first time to seek the Durham Region Joint Chambers and Boards of Trade’s input on Superlinx and our support. The Joint Chambers refused to support the resolution and at the OCC AGM the resolution failed to carry. Indeed, at the OCC AGM, multiple Chambers and Boards spoke out in opposition to the resolution, expressing concern about regional representation, pilfering neighbours, and labour costs. Since the OCC AGM, we have had multiple discussions with the OCC, TRBOT, and municipal, regional, provincial, and federal government representatives on the subject. Our opposition to uploading remains the same and our concerns have not been addressed. Any decision to upload, must be done with a fulsome and independent assessment, including the consideration of improving Metrolinx versus replacing with a larger and more cumbersome organization.
