REDLAKEMUNICIPALITY

DESCRIPTION:

- Shows the Municipality of Red Lake and adjacent lands.

- The six town sites of Red Lake are identified: Red Lake, Balmertown, Cochenour, McKenzie Island, Madsen and Starratt-Olsen.

- The map shows general land cover and land use, including:

o Lakes, rivers and streams o Wooded areas and wetlands o Protected Crown land, in the form of Nature and Conservation Reserves o Privately – owned land o Transportation routes, including roads, trails and winter roads o Buildings

MAP DATA SOURCES:

- Base Mapping (scale 1:20,000) - Land Information Ontario, Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources.

- Additional cultural and land use data (community names and roads) added by Study Team. 2 Municipality of Red Lake Sustainable Community Plan Appendix B - Maps

MININGDATA

DESCRIPTION:

- Shows the land use and interests related to mineral exploration and extraction within the Municipality and on adjacent lands.

- This map was prepared due to the importance of mineral exploration and extraction to the Municipality of Red Lake’s past, present and future; past mining-related activities and future mineral potential have significant impacts on development planning within the Municipality.

- Included on the map:

o Active Dispositions and Active Mining Claims:

. Most of the Municipality of Red Lake is affected by active dispositions and/or mining claims.

o Red Lake Abandoned Mines Information System (AMIS) Sites

. Mine hazards associated with the AMIS sites vary in nature and severity. (a review of the provided data identified ten sites within the Municipality showing hazards)

. The Ministry of Northern Development, Mines and Forestry (MNDMF) should be contacted when development is proposed near one of these hazards, so that the nature of the hazard and what, if any, remediation work may be required, can be communicated to the Municipality, the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing and to the develoment proponents.

. Mine hazards information recorded in the MNDMF’s AMIS database was compiled from various sources. MNDMF makes no representation and takes no responsibility that such information is accurate, current or complete.

o Conceptual Areas of Low Mineral Potential

. The identified conceptual areas of low mineral potential area represent the MNDMF’s current best estimate of where mineral exploration and future discovery are least likely to take place within the Municipality.

. These conceptual areas were provided for general land use planning purposes only, to give an indication of those regions of the Municipality that may be impacted more or less by future mineral exploration and / or extraction activities.

. These areas are not absolute designations; they are subject to change and refinement.

OPPORTUNITIESANDCONSTRAINTS

DESCRIPTION:

- Shows the opportunities and constraints to future land development within the Municipality of Red Lake.

- Opportunities and constraints are based on biophysical characteristics of the land, shoreline development restrictions and the conceptual level of mineral potential.

- Biophysical Constraints:

o Terrain analysis was conducted on the land comprising the Municipality of Red Lake to determine development constraints related to soil / ecosite type and to extreme slopes.

. Soil / ecosite terrain analysis was based on digital Forest Resources Inventory (FRI) available from OMNR.

. Soil and ground conditions are determined from site type and from ecosite classifications presented in the FRI data. Note that classifications for forest cover, site type and ecosite are not provided in the FRI for Unclassified Land (developed) or Unsurveyed Land (small islands)

. Areas categorized on the Opportunities and Constraints map as having Mild, Moderate and Severe Constraints to development exhibit the following primary characteristics:

 Mild Constraints to Development: This land is suitable for all types of development, including serviced facilities and suburban housing and for rural housing development with relatively few constraints. These areas are typically well-drained with moderately deep soils. Some areas will tend towards shallower and / or contain small pockets of poorly-drained soils.

 Moderate Constraints to Development: This land is suitable for all types of development, but may require additional site preparation to accommodate appropriate drainage. These areas are typically comprised of moderate to deep, but moist soils.

 Severe Constraints to Development: This land is likely to pose severe constraints to all types of development; it would require major and costly modifications in order to be considered developable land. These areas are 4 Municipality of Red Lake Sustainable Community Plan Appendix B - Maps

comprised primarily of wet, organic or peaty soils; appearing as forested or open wetlands or muskeg. Extreme Slope conditions were determined through development of a Digital Elevation Model (DEM) from 1 meter contour data. Slopes between 8% and 11% must be taken into consideration when planning. Slopes 12% and over pose significant challenges to development.

- Red Lake Shoreline Development Buffer:

o Development on Crown land in Ontario is not allowed on shorelines of reproducing trout lakes, in accordance with OMNR Policy PL 4.02.01. Red Lake is classified by OMNR to be a “Reproducing Trout Lake”. The application of this Policy is shown as a Shoreline Development Buffer based on land ownership data available from Ontario.

- Conceptual Areas of Low Mineral Potential

o The identified conceptual areas of low mineral potential represent the MNDMF’s current best estimate of where exploration and future discovery are least likely to take place within the Red Lake Municipality.

MAP DATA SOURCES:

- Forest Resources Inventory – Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources, Forest Resources Inventory Program.

- Contour data – Land Information Ontario, Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources.

- Conceptual Areas of Low Mineral Potential – MNDMF, Ontario Geological Survey, Resident Geologist Program – provided by G.Dorland July 6, 2010.

PROPOSEDGROWTHAREA&PLANNEDANDPOTENTIALDEVELOPMENT MAP 1 & MAP 2

DESCRIPTION:

- Proposed Growth Area & Planned and Potential Development Maps 1 and 2 present the following information at the Municipal scale (Map 1) and at a scale focusing on the town site of Red Lake (Map 2):

o Opportunities and constraints to development (as presented in the Opportunities and Constraints map, and discussed above).

o Proposed Growth Area:

. In keeping with the goals and principles identified in the Red Lake Sustainable Community Plan, Proposed Growth is centered upon the existing town site of Red Lake.

. Future development should focus on the Growth Area. Municipality of Red Lake Sustainable Community Plan Appendix B - Maps 5

. The Growth Area should be incorporated into all future Municipal planning documents.

. A one-mile radius and a two-mile radius are shown. A one-mile radius is considered “walkable”.

 Acreage of land exhibiting Mild, Moderate and Severe constraints to development were estimated for each radius.

 Acreage of land within each radius, that is also located within the High Mineral Potential Zone, is further identified.

o Planned and Potential Development:

. Parcels identified by the Municipality of Red Lake as Planned Development and as Potential Development sites are shown. For each parcel, the Development Type, Approximate Acreage and any Significant Limitations are provided.
