Despite the chaos of Covid-19, with the City of Thunder Bay and local rural municipalities’ support (Oliver Paipoonge, Neebing, O’Connor), the Thunder Bay & Area Food Strategy (TBAFS) made significant progress towards creating a more healthy, just and sustainable food system that contributes to the social, economic, health and well-being of the City of Thunder Bay & Area. This letter serves as an update of our activities over the past year, details about exciting projects we are working on for 2021-2022, and finally a request for funding and relational support from the Municipality of Shuniah. Economic & Social Impacts: 2020 Highlights ✓ Led the creation and implementation of the Community Emergency Food Security Plan (CEFSP) in partnership with the Thunder Bay Crime Prevention Council and 60+ other organizations. ✓ Promoted agriculture/agri-food activities (such as the Spring Farm Conference, Dr. Temple Grandin, Ecological Farmers Association events, etc.) with both economic and social impacts. ✓ Supported economic recovery efforts related to our local food system including starting a new Get Fresh website (*name not yet decided) and a Local Food Promotion strategy (2021-2022). ✓ Continued research and policy advocacy efforts including pushing for a National School Food Program and Guaranteed Annual Income. ✓ Doubled the economic investment into the TBAFS from the City and rural municipalities through project funding for events, and funding for research projects. As you can see, the TBAFS is highly effective at increasing social and economic impact in our community and leveraging the seed funding to have wider and more significant outcomes. There is significant momentum building in the food system and a much greater need for connection and coordination due to the impacts of Covid-19. Over the coming year, the TBAFS is poised to take an even greater leadership role in creating a resilient food system: 2021 Planned Social & Economic Initiatives ✓ Lead the development and implementation of the Community Emergency Food Security Plan. ✓ Conduct the five-year update to the Community Food Security Report Card. ✓ Coordinate a new Local Food website directory that will showcase food producers, processors, secondary infrastructure supports (eg. coop, abattoir), food distributors, retailers, and restaurants/service industry. The website will launch in the winter of 2021 and will highlight and promote many businesses in rural municipalities. ✓ In partnership with several local agricultural and economic development partners, we have submitted a proposal to implement an 18-month Local Food Promotion Strategy for our region with the end goal of increasing sales of local food. Our goals are to promote the freshness, quality, affordability, and convenience of supporting local food producers and processors. Did you know that if 10% of the Thunder Bay CMA population spent $10/more per week on local food that it would add up to an annual investment of over $6 million dollars? 1 Page 24 of 66 ✓ Lastly, undertake a Farmland Mapping Project to enhance local agriculture and attract new investors. Inquiries into available farmland are increasing in our region and completing an inventory assessment of these lands can help support local producers who need land to expand their operations, or to attract new growers to the area. This project would work closely with rural municipalities but would be led by the TBAFS. We are in the early planning stages. TBAFS Relational & Financial Support Requests Building strong relationships and networks is the core function of the TBAFS. Thank you to the Lakehead Rural Municipal Coalition for designating Brandon Postuma as the council representative from Oliver- Paipoonge on our Executive Committee from 2018-2020. We look forward to having Rudy Buitenhuis from Gillies join us from 2021-2022. The perspective from rural municipalities ensures that our social and economic activities consider the entire region. As we move forward with some ambitious local food marketing and mapping projects over the coming years, we look forward to working more closely with rural municipalities to support projects like the farmland asset mapping, the local food website, and in sharing and promoting the local food marketing strategy. Now more than ever, the TBAFS requires ongoing seed funding to support a full-time Coordinator who can leverage additional funding for projects and initiatives that benefit our community. We are confident that we can achieve our impactful 2021 goals with a more secure commitment in our core operations. For the 2021 budget, the TBAFS is requesting seed funding in the amount of $400 to support our ongoing work. Thank you in advance for these considerations. We look forward to the work ahead to build a strong and more resilient local food system.

The need for a new facility is based on a province-wide strategy to support improved commercial driver and vehicle safety. The project includes a new CVIF and ramps to and from the facility, on the north side of Highway 11/17. The CVIF will also include a building for MTO staff and a new truck lay-by facility (i.e., parking/inspection area for trucks) on the south side of Highway 11/17, opposite from the CVIF. The undertaking includes a new utility service corridor from Lakeshore Drive north to the new CVIF to provide electricity and telecommunications. The Detail Design builds on a Transportation Environmental Study Report completed in 2013, and a Design and Construction Report (DCR) also prepared in 2013 for the exit and entrance ramps which are already constructed. Construction of the new CVIF and truck lay-by facility will be staged to maintain at least one lane of traffic in each direction on Highway 11/17 at all times. Construction is expected to commence in 2021 and be completed in 2023, subject to provincial priorities, funding and approvals. Consultation and Comments The study was completed following the Class EA for Provincial Transportation Facilities (2000) as a Group ‘B’ project. The development of the approved Detail Design and Class EA is documented in a DCR. The DCR covers the design of the project and environmental mitigation measures and monitoring provisions that have been incorporated into the construction Contract. The report will be available for review between January 7, 2021, and February 8, 2021, at the project website: www.TB-CVIF.ca Locations to review a paper copy of the DCR will not be provided. Members of the public without internet access who wish to review the DCR may contact one of the project team members listed in this notice to discuss review options.

In November, the Township of Black River-Matheson, like many municipalities, received the annual renewal for its insurance coverage. What shocked us was the amount of the increase; from $105,000 in 2020 to $227,000 in 2021 or 116%. By switching carriers, we were able to reduce our premium to $217,000 or an increase of 107%. Upon digging into this matter further, we find that the reasoning is a combination of a “hardening” of the insurance market and claims experience in the past ten (10) years. A small survey of other municipalities shows increases that range from 2% to 53%, many of them, smaller communities that will have great difficulty in managing such increases. Those on the smaller end of the increase likely have renewal dates well into 2021 and will then see increases on the large size upon renewing. While the Township is trying to deal with a number of negative influences, like everybody else, we also have to deal with the difficulties that have been brought about through COVID-19. We do appreciate the assistance that has been provided by your Ministry and will continue to inform our local Ministry Representatives on any developing issues. We are very concerned that the factors at play in the insurance market will cause additional increases in the coming years, increases that will need to be passed on to our ratepayers. In 2021 alone, the increase in our premium will result in an increase of about 2.5%. The largest increase was in the area of liability and it is our fear that unless the Province deals with the matter of Joint and Several, rising insurance rates will be an ongoing matter.

As previously communicated, municipalities originally had two years from the in-force date to prepare and adopt their first CSWB plan (i.e., by January 1, 2021). The government recognizes that the pandemic has created unprecedented challenges for communities across Ontario. Over the past several months, we have heard from municipal partners that resources have been redirected to the pandemic response and, as a result, some have experienced delays in their CSWB planning and engagement processes. In an effort to support municipal, policing and community partners during the emergency, on April 14, 2020, the government passed the Coronavirus (COVID-19) Support and Protection Act, 2020, which amended the PSA to allow the Solicitor General to prescribe a new deadline for the completion and adoption of CSWB plans post January 1, 2021. This amendment came into force immediately upon Royal Assent. I would like to inform you that the new deadline for municipalities to prepare and adopt a CSWB plan is now July 1, 2021. This extension provides municipalities with an additional six months to complete their plans. This change will ensure municipalities, police services and local service providers can continue to dedicate the necessary capacity and resources to respond to COVID-19, while also providing adequate time to effectively undertake consultations, work collaboratively with multi-sectoral partners, and meet the legislative requirements to develop meaningful and effective CSWB plans. Community partners continue to underscore the importance and need for this type of holistic planning that addresses crime and complex social issues on a long-term, sustainable basis and improves the safety and well-being of Ontario communities. …/2 Page 32 of 66 Head of Council/Chief Administrative Officer/Municipal Clerk Page 2 Despite the unforeseen challenges that the pandemic has created, it is encouraging to see municipalities across the province perservere and make significant progress on their CSWB plans through innovative and forward-thinking approaches. I greatly appreciate your on-going support as we move forward on this modernized approach to CSWB together. Through collaboration, we will continue to build safer and stronger communities in Ontario. Lastly, if municipalities have any questions about CSWB planning, please direct them to ministry staff, Tiana Biordi, Community Safety Analyst, at [email protected].

Public Health Measures As COVID-19 cases continue to rise at an alarming rate, the Ontario government, in consultation with the Chief Medical Officer of Health and other health experts, announced a Provincewide Shutdown effective December 26, 2020 at 12.01 a.m. These additional restrictions reinforce that Ontarians should stay at home as much as possible to minimize transmission of the virus and prevent hospitals from becoming overwhelmed. Municipalities, residents and businesses can find out which regional public measures are in place for their area at https://www.ontario.ca/page/covid-19- response-framework-keeping-ontario-safe-and-open. Municipalities and local public health units may have additional restrictions or targeted requirements, on top of any applicable provincial public health measures. The Ontario government, in consultation with the Chief Medical Officer of Health, has also extended all orders currently in force under the Reopening Ontario (A Flexible Response to COVID-19) Act, 2020 (ROA) until January 20, 2021. These can be found online on the Government of Ontario's website at https://www.ontario.ca/laws/statute/20r17. Enforcement As you are aware, municipal by-law officers are designated to enforce provincial orders under the ROA. To help support municipal enforcement activities, I am attaching information the Ministry of the Solicitor General has shared with Chiefs of Police regarding additional amendments to orders made under the ROA. Page 1 of 2 Page 34 of 66 Ontario’s municipalities have shown leadership and actively engaged in enforcement and compliance, including enforcement of any local by-laws they may have enacted. To ensure we continue to maximize the impact of enforcement efforts on the ground, and as I mentioned in my previous correspondence to you, I strongly encourage our municipal partners to work closely with provincial enforcement officers and public health officers to coordinate enforcement activities in your communities. To identify opportunities for and to plan coordinated compliance activities in your community, please email Natasha Bartlett at [email protected]. To help support enforcement personnel, staff at the Ministry of the Solicitor General continue to respond to inquiries via [email protected]. Through this confidential channel, assistance is available to enforcement personnel seven days a week. In addition, a confidential Enforcement Support Phone Line (1-866- 389-7638) is operational and available to assist enforcement personnel Monday to Friday (8:30 a.m. – 5:30 p.m.). Reporting I would also encourage you again to support the Ministry of the Solicitor General’s efforts to collect enforcement data to help monitor and measure the impact of accelerated enforcement and compliance activities province wide. You can find out more on how you may contribute to the Ministry of the Solicitor General’s weekly data collection efforts by contacting Jeanette Gorzkowski or Agata Falkowski at [email protected] or [email protected], respectively. Thank you, once again, for your continued efforts to help keep our communities safe and healthy.

Tbaytel has a lease agreement with the Municipality of Shuniah for their existing ALDER site at the Fire Hall located at 201 Lakeshore Drive, Shuniah. The existing site is a temporary 30m mobile tower installed in the Fall of 2017 which was to be replaced with a permanent 30m self‐support tower at the rear of the Fire Hall. Tbaytel reviewed coverage provided by the temporary 30m mobile tower and determined the permanent 30m self‐support tower has not fully achieved the desired coverage and wireless services to the north, specifically at the KOA campground and along the TransCanada Highway, due to topology. The proposed 36.6m self‐support tower site (HAMPTON), if approved, would replace the existing temporary 30m mobile tower/permanent 30m self‐support site (ALDER). Once the HAMPTON site is fully installed and in operation the ALDER site would be decommissioned and the existing lease agreement terminated. The approval authority for wireless telecommunication towers is within jurisdiction of Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada (ISED) under the Radiocommunication Act. ISED’s Radiocommunication and Broadcasting Antenna Systems – CPC‐2‐0‐03, Issue 5 outlines the process for the proponent to follow and encourages the establishment of policies from the land‐use authority as they are best positioned to contribute to optimum siting of facilities to meet their own community needs. ISED’s Radiocommunication and Broadcasting Antenna Systems – CPC‐2‐0‐03, Issue 5, can be retrieved at: https://www.ic.gc.ca/eic/site/smt‐gst.nsf/vwapj/cpc‐2‐0‐03‐i5.pdf/$file/cpc‐2‐0‐03‐i5.pdf Page 36 of 66 The Municipality of Shuniah approved the Telecommunication Tower Consultation Policy on September 10, 2012 that provides guidelines for procedure and public meeting requirements for establishing new telecommunication sites. Municipality of Shuniah – Community Consultation As the proposed 36.6m self‐support tower is greater than 16.6m and located within 300m of a residential zone or dwelling we believe it will be considered a significant structure and require the following community consultation process: Mail notification to be sent to all property owners within 300m of the proposed tower site and Shuniah will provide a mailing list. The mail notification will be sent on December 16, 2020. Public notice will be published in the Chronicle Journal on December 19, 2020. Virtual public meeting will be held on January 13, 2021. Last day to receive submissions on this proposal is January 20, 2021. The purpose of the notifications is to provide the local community an opportunity to make a submission and for the Proponent to address all relevant questions and concerns prior to requesting concurrence from Shuniah. At the end of the public consultation process, if the Proponent is satisfied that it has addressed all relevant questions and would like to move forward with the installation, a request for a letter of concurrence from the Shuniah will be submitted along with all correspondence from the consultation process. The letter of concurrence from the Shuniah would provide confirmation that the Proponent has satisfied the consultation process by addressing all relevant questions and has consulted with the Shuniah. This information package is to provide Shuniah with the following: Background Information Proposed Site Details Site Sketch (Site Plan will be provided once available) Photo Rendering Co‐location Opportunities Considered Map – Horizontal Distance Between Proposed Site and Residential Zone or Dwelling Federal Requirements Public Consultation Material I trust the information included in this package will be helpful for the Municipality of Shuniah’s consideration of this proposal. Sincerely, Jay Lewis Real Estate & Municipal Affairs FB Connect Page 37 of 66 Background Information Tbaytel continues to make large investments every year to improve their wireless network to expand their coverage and increase their capacity. Areas that experience limited or no coverage require additional sites to fill these voids. Increases in the number of users, devices and amount of data accessed over wireless services have also resulted in additional sites required to increase capacity to maintain a reliable wireless network. Tbaytel has an existing site, ALDER, which is a temporary 30m mobile tower installed in the Fall 2017 at the Fire Hall to address coverage and wireless service deficiencies in the immediate area. A permanent 30m self‐support tower was to replace the temporary tower. Tbaytel has determined the ALDER site has not fully addressed the coverage and wireless service deficiencies at the KOA campground and along the TransCanada Highway due to topology. A review of the area determined a 36.6m self‐support site further north on Spruce River Road at a greater elevation (25m) is required.

Subject property is zoned LI‐ Light Industrial and identified in the Official Plan as Rural Lands. The proposed 36.6m self‐support tower (galvanized steel) with attached wireless equipment will provide 4G HSPA & LTE wireless services to the area. An equipment shelter will be located at the base of the self‐support tower. Both proposed tower and equipment shelter will be located within a 15m x 15m chain‐link fenced compound to prevent public access. Access to the tower site would require a new entrance (with culvert) from Spruce River Road. Co‐Location Opportunities Considered Tbaytel always considers co‐locating or securing their wireless equipment on existing structures such as other third‐party communication towers, water towers or buildings prior to proposing a new communication tower in an effort to minimize the number of towers in a region. Tbaytel determined there are no existing structures within the immediate area to be considered and new structure is required. Tbaytel will consider all future applications by third‐parties to co‐locate on the proposed self‐support tower in an effort to minimize the number of towers in immediate area.

Impact Assessment Act Tbaytel attests that the radio antenna system described in this notification package is excluded from environmental assessment under the Impact Assessment Act. Engineering Principles Tbaytel attest that the radio antenna system described in this notification package will be constructed in compliance with the National Building Code of Canada and comply with good engineering practices including structural adequacy. Transport Canada Tbaytel attest the proposed structure will meet Transport Canada’s aeronautical obstruction marking requirements as set out in Canadian Aviation Regulations ‐ Standard 621 (CAR 621). An Aeronautical Assessment Form has been submitted to Transport Canada who determined no marking or lighting of the tower is required.

Sincerely, Jay Lewis Real Estate & Municipal Affairs FB CONNECT Page 43 of 66 Mail Notification Package: Proposed Installation of a 36.6m Self‐Support Tower Site Tbaytel Site ID: HAMPTON Background Information Tbaytel continues to make large investments every year to improve their wireless network to expand their coverage and increase their capacity. Areas that experience limited or no coverage require additional sites to fill these voids. Increases in the number of users, devices and amount of data accessed over wireless services have also resulted in additional sites required to increase capacity to maintain a reliable wireless network. Tbaytel has an existing site, ALDER, which is a temporary 30m mobile tower installed in the Fall 2017 at the Fire Hall to address coverage and wireless service deficiencies in the immediate area. A permanent 30m self‐support tower was to replace the temporary tower. Tbaytel has determined the ALDER site has not fully addressed the coverage and wireless service deficiencies at the KOA campground and along the TransCanada Highway due to topology. A review of the area determined a 36.6m self‐support site further north on Spruce River Road at a greater elevation (25m) is required. Tbaytel’s Existing and Proposed Sites Blue Circle Icons – Existing Tbaytel Site Red Circle Icon – Tbaytel Proposed 36.6m Self‐Support Tower Site Page 44 of 66 Proposed Site Details Site ID: HAMPTON Site Address: Spruce River Road, Shuniah, Ontario Latitude: 48.489366° Longitude: ‐89.131355° Aerial Image of Proposed Location Tbaytel is proposing a 36.6m self‐support site on the east side of Spruce River Road, north side of CP rail corridor. Subject property is zoned LI‐ Light Industrial and identified in the Official Plan as Rural Lands. The proposed 36.6m self‐support tower (galvanized steel) with attached wireless equipment will provide 4G HSPA & LTE wireless services to the area. An equipment shelter will be located at the base of the self‐support tower. Both proposed tower and equipment shelter will be located within a 15m x 15m chain‐link fenced compound to prevent public access. Access to the tower site would require a new entrance (with culvert) from Spruce River Road. Co‐Location Opportunities Considered Tbaytel always considers co‐locating or securing their wireless equipment on existing structures such as other third‐party communication towers, water towers or buildings prior to proposing a new communication tower in an effort to minimize the number of towers in a region. Tbaytel determined there are no existing structures within the immediate area to be considered and new structure is required. Tbaytel will consider all future applications by third‐parties to co‐locate on the proposed self‐support tower in an effort to minimize the number of towers in immediate area.

At our December meeting, the Board approved the proposed operating and capital budgets for 2021, as presented in Report No. 2020-61. The approved 2021 TBDSSAB Operating Budget totals $99,282,100 and the Capital Budget totals $3,845,000. The impact on the levy to Municipalities and Territories Without Municipal Organization (TWOMO) will be 0.8% more than 2020. The apportionment of the levy is calculated using weighted assessment; therefore, the change in levy for each municipality will depend on weighted assessment changes experienced by each community, relative to the other 14 communities. We hope to be able to identify the impact on specific municipalities by mid-January. The Board also approved the 2021 Rural Ontario Municipal Association (ROMA) Briefings Package. ROMA will be holding its 2021 Annual Conference virtually, January 25-26, 2021. TBDSSAB has prepared a Briefings Package containing 4 key recommendations, presented in Report No. 2020-62. Delegation requests have been submitted and Members of the Board will be prepared to discuss these issues with the relevant Ministers. 1 Page 63 of 66 To say that the past year has been a whirlwind would be an understatement. The year has brought many changes for us, our municipalities, and to TBDSSAB as an organization. On behalf of the Board, I would like to thank the TBDSSAB Administration and Staff for their dedication to the clients we serve and for remaining open throughout the pandemic. I would also like to thank the Board members for their flexibility and support of the Administration this year. I look forward to continuing to work together in 2021. On behalf of the TBDSSAB Board, I wish you, your families, and your communities a happy, healthy, and safe holiday season and all the best in the new year!
