  • 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.

    BAY OF QUINTE REMEDIAL ACTION PLAN MONITORING REPORT #22 PROJECT QUINTE ANNUAL REPORT 2011 prepared by Project Quinte members in support of the Bay of Quinte Remedial Action Plan Bay of Quinte Remedial Action Plan Kingston, Ontario, Canada. Summer 2013 Editors Note: This report does not constitute publication. Many of the results are preliminary findings. The information has been provided to assist and guide the Bay of Quinte Remedial Action Plan. The information and findings cannot be used in any manner or quoted without the consent of the individual authors. Individual authors should be contacted prior to any other proposed application of the data herein. PREFACE BAY OF QUINTE REMEDIAL ACTION PLAN MONITORING REPORT #22 2011 PROJECT QUINTE ANNUAL REPORT (Summer 2013) In 1985, the Great Lakes Water Quality Board of the International Joint Commission (IJC) identified 42 Areas of Concern in the Great Lakes basin where the beneficial uses were impaired. The Board recommended that the appropriate jurisdictions and government agencies prepare, submit and implement a Remedial Action Plan (RAP) in each area to restore the water uses. The Bay of Quinte was designated as one of the Areas of concern. Ten of 14 beneficial uses described in Annex 2 of the Great lakes Water Quality Agreement (revised 1987) are impaired. The impaired uses include beach postings, eutrophication or undesirable algae, restrictions on fish consumption, taste and odour problems in drinking water, etc. The contributing factors are excessive phosphorus loadings, persistent toxic contaminants, bacteriological contamination, as well as alterations and destruction of shorelines, wetland and fish habitat. Project Quinte is a long-term, multi-agency research and monitoring project.

    OUTLOOK FOR BREAK-UP OF ICE ON THE ST.LAWRENCE SEAWAY & LAKE ERIE ISSUED BY THE CANADIAN ICE SERVICE Issued by Canadian Ice Service of Environment and Climate Change Canada Prepared for The Saint-Lawrence Seaway Management Corporation 2 February 2021 CURRENT CONDITIONS Average temperatures over Lake Erie, Lake Ontario, and the Seaway have been well above normal values consistently since the start of the ice season in early November until near the end of January. At the end of January, temperatures were near to below normal. The highest temperature anomalies occurred in the second half of December and first half of January. The table below indicates the departure from normal temperatures at specific locations, on a bi- weekly basis, for the period from mid-November to the end of January: November December January 16 Nov. – 16-30 31 Jan 01-15 16-31 01-15 16-31 Montreal +2.0 ºC +4.0ºC +4.1ºC +6.8ºC +0.9ºC +3.6ºC Kingston +2.8ºC +2.3ºC +3.2ºC +5.4ºC +1.0ºC +2.9ºC Windsor +1.5ºC +1.3ºC +2.0ºC +4.3ºC +1.4ºC +2.2ºC Table 1: Departure from normal temperatures With the warm conditions experienced through November across the southern Great Lakes (Erie and Ontario), no ice formed in November. The first ice was recorded on December 16th in the Bay of Quinte and in sheltered bays in eastern Lake Ontario, which was a week earlier than normal. In Lake Erie, the first ice was seen a week and a half later, on December 26th, in line with climatology.

  • Quinte Region Water Budget, and to Initiate Discussions About Drought Management Plans
    1 | P a g e Summary Planning for drought in Ontario has become of increasing concern due to the recurrence of droughts, increased development pressure, and anticipated impacts from climate change. Previous work by Quinte Conservation has identified the region to be vulnerable to the impacts of climate change. Some of this vulnerability can be attributed to the high percentage of Quinte Region residents (50 percent of the population) that rely on private wells for water supply. These wells are supplied by a shallow fractured bedrock aquifer with low storage capacity requiring regular replenishment from precipitation to maintain adequate levels of supply. In 2016, a widespread historic drought was experienced in the Quinte Conservation watershed and across Eastern Ontario. During this event, groundwater levels and wells experienced historically low levels with many residents’ wells running dry. Farmers struggled to find alternative supplies to sustain crops and livestock, rural fire protection sources dried up, and low river levels resulted in damaged fish habitat. Municipalities that rely 100 percent on private wells had difficulty obtaining alternative sources of water for their residents. Learning from the 2016 experience, Quinte Conservation recognized the need to develop a drought management plan that would help local municipalities mitigate and adapt to drought. With the support of municipalities within its watershed, Quinte Conservation obtained funding through the Federation of Canadian Municipalities (FCM). This funding has been used to improve monitoring to deal with drought, assess the potential impacts of climate change, and prepare the following as a drought management plan. This plan provides an overview of the background information about the Quinte watershed and past impacts from drought.
