  • Consolidated Municipal Services Managers and Areas Served
    CONSOLIDATED MUNICIPAL SERVICES MANAGERS AND AREAS SERVED Consolidated Municipal Services Managers (CMSMs) in Southern Ontario provide a similar range of programs and services and also provide land ambulance and public health services with the approval of the Minister of Health. The role of the delivery agent in the provision of social services has progressed over time. The Local Services Realignment announced by the government in January 1997, outlined new directions for the delivery of social assistance, child care and social housing. These changes have created the opportunity to implement a more integrated system of social and community health services under municipal leadership. An integrated system is one in which policies; programs and services are coordinated and complementary and serve common goals that address the well being of individuals, families and communities. Consolidation of municipal service management has resulted in the management of the delivery of social assistance, child care, and social housing by 36 municipalities in Southern Ontario and by 10 District Social Services Administration Boards as well as the Regional Municipality of Sudbury in Northern Ontario. Authority to require consolidation of municipal service management is provided by the Services Improvement Act and the Social Assistance Reform Act. In Northern Ontario, ten District Social Services Administration Boards (DSSABs) and the Regional Municipality of Sudbury were approved as CMSMs. DSSABs are responsible for serving both municipalities and territories without municipal organization. The nine southern Ontario regional municipalities plus the City of Toronto are, by legislation, boards of health for their region, as well as CMSMs. [Please refer to attached chart outlining Consolidated Municipal Service Managers - Ontario Works, Child Care and Social Housing -- area served in Southern and Northern Ontario] 1 Consolidated Municipal Service Managers Ontario Works, Child Care and Social Housing Service Manager Area Served SOUTHERN ONTARIO 1.

  • Greetings, People Want to Stop the Sale of Orillia Power Distribution To
    Recipient: Ontario Energy Board Letter: Greetings, People want to stop the sale of Orillia Power Distribution to Hydro One! Orillia Power is a legacy to Orillian hydro power consumers who are shareholders in the corporation since it's inception in 1898, 120 years ago. In the year 2000 Orillia council commandeered the shareholder's dividends redirecting the money to City coffers instead of shareholders pockets. In 2016 Orillia council decided behind closed doors to do an Orillia Power Distribution sellout to Hydro One which is about 50% privatized. We, the people of Orillia and more, say NO! to the Orillia Power Distribution sellout. We impeach Orillia council for the total violation of public trust in selling out our legacy behind closed doors without consumer consent. We demand our dividends. We also demand the interest we have paid on an artificially created debt where there was no debt: Orillia Power consumers have paid into City coffers an average of about $3259.26 plus tax from the year 2000 to 2016. We demand full transparency on the alleged interest of the artificially created debt. We do not buy into the intimidation tactics Hydro One is using in their attempt to take Orillia Power Distribution. Orillia Power consumers say NO! to the Orillia Power Distribution sellout to Hydro One.
