April 20, 2015

Township of Otonabee South Monaghan Attn: Reeve Dave Nelson P.O. Box 70 Keene, ON K0L 2G0

RE: Request for partnership with Municipality for Farm Credit Canada grant application

Dear Reeve Nelson:

As a member of School Council at North Shore Public School, and part of the playground sub-committee, I am writing to ask that you please consider this letter as a request that the Township partner with North Shore Public School Parent Council, for the purposes of us applying for a Farm Credit Canada grant.

As the School is not a registered charity, the other option to be eligible for the grant is to partner with a municipal body, who would agree to receive the money contributed and issue a receipt in our name.

There is no other requirement on the Municipality other than to issue a receipt in our name, if we are successful.

This was a partnership that we entered into in 2011 as well, but we were unsuccessful in our grant application, as we couldn’t illustrate that we had raised enough funds on our own at the time.

With the help of the school community and local community members, the playground fund is near $22,000 and at this point, we are shy the amount required to prep and pea gravel the grounds. This is where the grant money will come in to play if we are successful.

Should you have any questions or require further information, please don’t hesitate to contact me.

Thank you in advance for your time and consideration.

Sincerely,

Cara Wood

Mr. David Nelson Reeve Township of Otonabee?South Monaghan

Dear Reeve Nelson:

On April 16, 2015, the Ontario Government announced our intention to proceed with an Initial Public Offering of shares in Hydro One Inc. before the end of the current fiscal year. We further announced that Hydro One Brampton Networks Inc. would be merged with three other local distribution companies: Enersource Corporation, Horizon Utilities Corporation and PowerStream Inc.

These announcements are in response to advice from the Premier’s Advisory Council on Government Assets, led by Ed Clark. As you know, the Council was tasked with finding ways to improve customer service and increase efficiencies in order to maximize the value of government assets and generate better returns for the people of Ontario.

An amount equal to the net proceeds of the sale of Hydro One shares will be put in the Trillium Trust. Our government’s Moving Ontario Forward initiative commits nearly $29 billion over the next 10 years for investments in priority infrastructure projects, including nearly $14 billion earmarked for outside the Greater Toronto-Hamilton Area for investment in roads, bridges, transit and other critical infrastructure. The Trillium Trust will be an important source of funding for this commitment.

The Province will continue to be the largest shareholder in the new Hydro One, and the company’s rates will continue to be regulated by the Ontario Energy Board (OEB). We are proposing new oversight powers for the OEB and the appointment of a dedicated Ombudsperson within the new Hydro One to further protect consumers, contain costs and ensure reliability of service.

I want to assure those in Hydro One’s service territory that the reliability and affordability of power is our first priority. The sale of shares in Hydro One will not cause the price of electricity to rise and will not impact reliability of service. In fact, we agree with the Council’s assessment that changes at Hydro One will unleash new efficiencies and innovation that will reduce costs and benefit consumers.

I also want to assure you that we remain committed to the transmission projects outlined in the 2013 Long-Term Energy Plan, including to plan for a new northwest Bulk Transmission Line west of Thunder Bay and to work with the federal government to connect remote

Ministry of Energy - Ontario Hydro Page 51 of 67 Shares ... Agenda Item # 10c)

northwestern communities.

I want to draw your attention to the decision to merge Hydro One Brampton. The merger of four local distribution companies (LDCs) into a single, highly effective entity will create savings and efficiencies of scale that will benefit hundreds of thousands of households and create the second-largest LDC in the province. This is consistent with the recommendations of the Ontario Distribution Sector Review Panel and will hopefully serve as a model for other LDCs. While I have been clear that our government will not force consolidation of municipally-owned LDCs, I feel that further consolidation is in the best interests of the system and its customers.

If you would like to review the Council’s report, it is available at www.ontario.ca/government/premiers-advisory-council-government-assets.

Sincerely,

Bob Chiarelli Minister

Outdoor Ice Rink Manual

Draft Outdoor Skating Rink Page 54 of 67 Policies & Procedures (Clerk) ... Agenda Item # 11a)

Purpose of this Guide

This guide provides:

1. Instructions and forms for making application to the Township of Otonabee-South Monaghan Parks and Arena Manager or Designate to establish a community outdoor rink. 2. Instructions to the approved Volunteer Team to build and maintain a community outdoor rink on municipal property, including standard operating procedures, training and health and safety standards.

Section One: Getting Started

1. Establish a Volunteer Team consisting of a minimum of three adults. Designate a principal contact to the Volunteer Coordinator. The Volunteer Coordinator will be the liaison between the Volunteer Team and the Municipality.

2. Complete the Volunteer Outdoor Ice Rink Application Form and submit it to the Township of Otonabee- South Monaghan Parks and Arena Department office no later than November 1st for the following season.

3. Meet with the Parks and Arena Manager or Designate to discuss the proposed rink, including intended use of the rink (pleasure skating or shinny), location for the proposed ice rink. The Otonabee-South Monaghan Parks and Arena Department will contact you to arrange a mutually agreeable time, upon receipt of the above forms. Please be aware that due to community fundraising needed for an Outdoor Rink it may take a year for a group to raise the required funds.

4. Once the Agreement has been approved by Council, the Otonabee-South Monaghan Parks and Arena Department will provide the following:

 Garbage cans

The Volunteer Group will supply:

 Water supply  Flooding hose  Shovels  At their own expense the appropriate protective clothing for warmth when inspecting, flooding or shoveling the ice surface

The Volunteer Group will be responsible for the installation of edging to the outdoor ice rink for the required size of the rink with prior approval and inspection from the Parks and Arena Department. They will also put the tarp/bladder in place and put down the first few layers of water to hold the tarp in place again to be inspected and approved by the Parks and Arena Manager or Designate.

Draft Outdoor Skating Rink Page 55 of 67 Policies & Procedures (Clerk) ... Agenda Item # 11a)

Section Two: Standard Operating Procedures

Rink Size

1. All rinks will be sized according to the location as determined by the Otonabee-South Monaghan Parks and Arena Manager or Designate.

Site Surfaces

2. Outdoor rinks will be located on an approved green space area.

3. Outdoor rinks are not permitted on:

a. Any type of sports field (unless permission by the Otonabee-South Monaghan Parks and Arena Manager or Designate is granted. b. Any concrete or asphalt surface (parking lots or other) (unless permission by the Otonabee-South Monaghan Parks and Arena Manager or Designate is granted). c. Any body of water (ponds, rivers or others)

Ice Making

How to Apply the First Sheet of Ice:

1. The process of building a rink should not begin before there is a sufficient frost in the ground, which typically requires seven to 10 consecutive days of minus 10 degrees Celsius or lower. The rink may not be open before the third week of December (weather permitting).

2. Make sure you are wearing all the proper safety personal protective equipment needed for the task, including C.S.A. safety boots and safety helmet for installing the ice surface and the ongoing maintenance.

3. Inspect the initial layer of ice put out by Otonabee-South Monaghan Parks and Arena Department Staff. If there is any shell ice which are air pockets make sure to chip them up so they can be resealed with your first flood.

4. Ensure all hoses, fittings and nozzles have been tested for leaks. Repair all leaks prior to flooding.

5. Ice making is best done by two volunteers (buddy system).

6. Set the hose to a fine mist. Point hose slightly towards and allow mist to fall to the ice surface. Applying the water in a mist will allow the ice to freeze quickly (building a harder denser sheet) and should allow you to work continuously.

Draft Outdoor Skating Rink Page 56 of 67 Policies & Procedures (Clerk) ... Agenda Item # 11a)

7. Water should be applied evenly over the entire surface. Wet down the base moving around the perimeter first. Then divide the ice sheet length wise in the middle. Work from the outside of the sheet walking backwards, back and forth until you reach the middle of the sheet. Then proceed to the opposite side and do the same pattern. Once you reach the middle again the other side should be frozen that you can continue the same pattern, if it is not you are either applying too much water or the outside conditions are not cold enough.

8. Continue to build ice layers until the ice surface is level and that you have 1 ½” to 2” of ice over the entire surface.

9. The thicker the ice the easier it will be for the rink to withstand sun exposure and mild temperatures.

Ice Maintenance

1. Maintenance should be done preferable at the end of each operating day. (This will depend on usage and weather).

2. Scrape the ice – use a shovel.

3. Inspect the ice for cracks, holes, large bumps or other hazards/damage.

4. Repair cracks/holes by packing slush into each crack and hole prior to flooding. A shovel can be used to smooth over the slush patch.

5. Repair ice bumps by chipping them down flush with the ice surface and then filling any rough areas caused by the chipping with slush. A scraper can be used to smooth over your slush patch.

6. Measure ice thickness once a week in four areas on the ice, making sure, at minimum that you have 1 ½” in each area. Log the results in the Volunteer Outdoor Rink Inspection Log.

Areas of the ice surface not meeting this requirement must be built up immediately.

7. Flood the ice working from one end to the other.

8. Ice maintenance is best done by two volunteers (buddy system)

9. Flood ice until water levels and a smooth surface is achieved.

10. If outdoor ice temperature is below -17◦C, then flooding should be delayed until the ice/weather warms up. Cracking may result if ice below this temperature is flooded.

Draft Outdoor Skating Rink Page 57 of 67 Policies & Procedures (Clerk) ... Agenda Item # 11a)

Common Ice Maintenance Problems

Problem Possible Cause Possible Repair

Shell or shale ice Heavy flooding, leaving puddles Scrape away and fill with of water that freeze on top and slush and level off leave oxygen pockets Pebble or rough ice Too much snow on ice; flooding Make sure the ice is clear while snowing; using too little of of all snow before water while flooding flooding Ice chipping Ice brittle due to extreme cold

Low spots on ice Low areas cause from high spots Build up low areas with in ground. Areas receiving multiple floods. excessive use

Section Three

Inspections

1. Inspections are to be performed on a daily basis by Volunteers. Inspection times can be anytime during the operating day.

2. Inspections are to be entered on the Volunteer Outdoor Ice Rink Inspection Log.

3. All identified hazards such as cracks, rough ice and repair as needed.

4. All maintenance performed must be recorded o the inspection log.

5. Report anything that you feel that falls out of your scope to Parks and Arena staff.

6. Freeze/thaws – if we have freeze/thaws conditions the ice will melt but the tarp will retain the water. What you must watch out for is when the water freezes again is that it is frozen solid. There will be potential for shell ice to be created which has air pockets. These pockets must be chipped open, filled and packed with slush.

“Day of Mourning”

April 28, 2015

Whereas April 28 is observed across Canada and in countries around the world as the Day of Mourning for workers killed or injured on the job;
