  • 5.4 Pembroke Area History
    OTTAWA RIVER COMMUNITY HERITAGE 221 5.4 Pembroke Area History Pembroke Heritage Designation Sub‐Committee, led by Marian Patterson Geology Over one half million years ago, the country stretching from Fitzroy Township (known as the Upper Ottawa Valley) was covered by the sea. As the last ice age receded, a long, wide (and in some places, extremely deep) trench was left. The land exposed was rich in minerals, and is well known to mineral collectors. Minerals found in the region include corundum, hematite, magnetite, radioactive minerals, chalcopyrite, graphite, rose quartz, garnet, mica, molybdenote, galena, selenite, tourmaline, brucite, sphalerite, feldspar (including amazonite), apatite, fluorspar, nepheline, zircon, beryl, pyrite, tremolite and celestite. European settlers in the area quarried limestone, sandstone and feldspar. Many of the fine, older homes are made of locally quarried limestone. The closest lime kilns (for making mortar) were located on Allumette Island, just opposite Morrisonʹs Island. The bricks were made locally from the many deposits of clay found along the banks of the Muskrat, Indian and Ottawa Rivers. Pembrokeʹs City Hall is built from beautiful red sandstone that was quarried on Beckettʹs Island in the 1880s. These minerals were brought to the Pembroke area by boat. In the case of the feldspar, a short boat ride across Hazleyʹs Bay to the railroad spur was all that was needed. The Fur Trade In 1613 Champlain and his party paddled up the Ottawa River and traveled overland to the foot of Muskrat Lake. They paddled up the lake and walked across to the shore of Lower Allumette Lake, where they met Chief Tessoüat, who had a lookout at the foot of Morrisonʹs Island.

  • 06-05 Cobden Marsh Trail Project
    Meeting Date: June 5, 2019 Contact: J. Collins, Director of Public Works 613-646-2282 [email protected] Cobden Marsh Trail Project Recommendation: That Environmental Services Committee receive this report for information purposes as it relates to the Muskrat Watershed Council and the Cobden Marsh Trail Project. Background: The Muskrat Watershed Council (MWC) presented a report titled Muskrat Lake Watershed, 2014-2017 Water Quality, dated January 2019, prepared by Rebecca L. Dalton, Ph.D, on February 20, 2019. During their presentation, the MWC requested that Council reinstate the earth-berm in the Cobden Marsh. 1.0 Municipal Property The Cobden Marsh (the “marsh”) is located at: Civic Address 1 Astrolabe Road Roll No. 4758 0490 5006501 Legal Description Ross Con 2 W Pt Lot 7 RP;49R4083 Parts 1 2 Pt Rd All Owner Whitewater Region Township Size 49.13 ac. Figure 1 – 1 Astrolabe Road 2.0 Cobden Marsh Interpretive (Civitan) Trail The Cobden Marsh Interpretive Trail is located within the marsh. In 2008-09 the Civitan Club brushed along the existing berm to create a walking trail. The project engaged numerous stakeholders to get involved (i.e. MNRF, DFO, community groups, etc.). An 80m boardwalk was constructed between the south parking area and the south end of the berm, with a foot bridge installed over the Muskrat River. Portions of the berm were cleared and leveled. Several fjords, a shallow place in a river or stream that allows one to walk or drive across, were constructed in the berm to allow for spring run-off. The second phase was to brush, fill the breaches, level and top with crushed limestone, the circular part of the berm running east around the wetland, looping the trail.

  • COMMUNITY PROFILE a National Bloom 5 WINNER!
    COMMUNITY PROFILE A National Bloom 5 WINNER! A Community in Bloom The City of Pembroke has been participating in the Communities in Bloom program since 1999 – and it has had a beautiful impact on the community! The colourful street banners, the half barrels overflowing with flowers, the pretty containers hanging on the bridges, and the flower baskets hanging in the downtown core are all due to the Communities in Bloom initiative. Countless vol- unteer hours have been spent engaging the residents of Pembroke, and helping them to pitch in, take pride and partici- pate in the beautification and environmental responsibility efforts. In 2001 the City earned four blooms in the provincial competition, and the right to call itself “the prettiest little city in Ontario”. In 2004-2005, Pembroke competed at the national level, helping to introduce Pembroke to the rest of Canada, and was awarded 5 Blooms!

The Proposed Development Area (PDA) is located within Lot 14 Concession 1, Horton Township (Geo.), Town of Renfrew, County of Renfrew, Ontario. The PDA is approximately 15 ha and is bounded on the southwest by an old rail bed, to the southeast and northeast by the backyards of houses along Aberdeen Street, Mason Avenue and McAndrew Ave, and to the northwest an agricultural field. The Stage 1 Archaeological Assessment included consultation with local heritage organizations, reviews of aerial imagery, archaeological potential maps, national topographic maps, physiographic maps and early maps of the area. In addition, information regarding known archaeological sites in the vicinity, land grants, and historical reference books for the PDA was reviewed. A site visit to assess archaeological potential was conducted November 29, 2017. Based upon the review of background material and the site visit, there are areas with and without potential for the presence of archaeological resources within the PDA.
