Certainly for most of us, the past year and a half has had its challenges, to say the least. What I have re-learned over the past year and a half, and to coin a well-known phrase, is that it is important that we “don’t sweat the little things”. It is easy these days to get bogged down in the details. To get stressed-out over minor things that in most cases we have little or no control over. “Control the things you can control” my dad used to say to me. Focus on what you can control and what is important for you to live a healthy and fulfilled life. Stress is the enemy. Its negative effects on the human mind and body, over time, are too numerous for me to list in this short message. Managing stress is an important factor in human health and happiness. There are many ways to manage your daily stress load. Most of us know that regular exercise is key to managing stress. Eating well and things like meditation, yoga or reading a good book can also assist your mind and body to manage stress. Forest bathing, gardening, hiking, snowshoeing and skiing are other good healthy options. Just being outdoors in nature can also lower stress. The 2021/22 Fall-Winter Community Guide provides lots of options in terms of healthy living. Recreation by its very nature (no pun intended) is about replenishing your mind, body and soul so that you can tackle the daily stressors in your life before they tackle you. You may have already tried a new recreational activity or two during the pandemic. Congratulations if you have! Stay with it. Your mind and body will thank you. If you are unsure where to start, give Community Services a call. Our recreation professionals would be more than happy to assist you.

Chief Whiteduck explains that “Saturday’s event will be an opportunity for the Algonquin people, together with our neighbours, to join together in our mutual appreciation and respect for this mighty river.” As part of the Hell or High Water 6 festivities, the Algonquins of Ontario will be hosting the following events highlighting the Petawawa River as part of our Algonquin past, present and future: TIME EVENT LOCATION 7 a.m. – Welcome and Ceremony in Honour of the Life of the Centennial Park 8:30 a.m. Petawawa River 18 Park Drive Petawawa, ON In honour of Algonquin traditions, it is kindly requested that those attending the Water Ceremony refrain from taking photographs, using any recording devices and that women wear a long skirt or sarong over their clothing.

    2021 Proposed Fees and Charges

    Meeting Date: November 25, 2020 Contact: Sean Crozier, Treasurer/Deputy CAO [email protected] 613-646-2282, Ext. 138 Title: 2021 Proposed Fees and Charges Recommendation: That Committee of the Whole receive the draft 2021 User Fee Schedules for discussion in advance of the Public Meeting scheduled for December 9, 2020. Background: As part of the annual budget process, user fees are reviewed to ensure revenue is generated for providing services that are not fully funded through the use of taxation, grants or reserves. Social and economic factors are taken into consideration with proposed changes. In the 2021 proposed budget, user fees represent 28% of the proposed tax levy, meaning that without the use of user fees, the tax levy would need to increase 28% to fund services offered. Analysis: The Township is proposing increases in inspection rates and the introduction of a Covid-19 related cleaning fee when required. Changes to individual schedules are summarized below. Schedule “A” Community Development: The proposed changes will position the Township to provide for comparable planning and building fees with municipalities within Renfrew County. The department will assess revenue vs. expenses for building services to comply with the Ontario Building Code Act in 2021. Schedule “B” Recreation: The proposed changes are a reflection of market rates for arenas. Schedule “C” Finance and Administration: Page 1 of 16 A slight increase to the issuance of tax certificates is proposed. Schedule “D” Legislative and Protective Services: Recreational vehicle licenses and marriage related fees have increased. It is not recommended at this time to change to a lifetime dog tag as yearly revenues aid in offsetting operational expenses.

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!

    CFB Petawawa Military Base Upgrades Outfall

    CASE STUDY CFB Petawawa Military Base Upgrades Outfall Project: Canadian Forces Base Petawawa Location: Ottawa Valley, Ontario Owner: Department of National Defence (DND) and Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) Engineer: Jp2g Consultants, Inc. Contractor: H and H Construction, Inc. Approving Agency: Canadian Forces Base Petawawa Product: Stormceptor® STC 14000 CFB Petawawa’s Storm Outfall #1 provides drainage for approximately 45.9 ha (113 ac) of developed and 10.0 ha (24 ac) of undeveloped lands located within a portion of the Base. The majority of the area is already serviced by a storm sewer collection system which ultimately discharges into the Ottawa River. The developed area which contains buildings and associated parking lots is generally located on a flat sand plain, with very little fall. The storm sewer system in this area follows the land contours and therefore has very flat grades. Analysis of the pre-existing storm sewer immediately upstream of Outfall #1 indicated that the majority of the system was undersized for both the 2 and 5 year events, and flow velocities exceeded the typical recommended design velocity. This was a concern with the existing infrastructure, which included a Stormceptor (designed and installed nearly 20 years ago). As development continued on the Base over the years it was found that the resulting storm sewer hydraulic changes began to limit the existing sewer’s capcity and unit’s overall functionality. Additionally, to address additional downstream erosion issues in the creek the alignment of the Outfall #1 sewer pipe’s outlet required adjustment so it would be more in line with the creek’s flow, rather than perpendicular to it.
