7:30 John Oosterhof, Dufferin County Poverty Reduction Task Force

DUFFERIN COUNTY APPEARS TO BE A WEALTHY AND HEALTHY COMMUNITY

A CASE FOR POVERTY REDUCTION IN DUFFERIN COUNTY

7:30 John Oosterhof, Dufferin County Poverty Reduction Task Force

WHAT IS POVERTY

Fundamentally, poverty is a denial of choices and opportunities, a violation of human dignity. It means lack of basic capacity to participate effectively in society. It means not having enough to feed and cloth[e] a family, not having…a job to earn one’s living, not having access to credit. It means insecurity, powerlessness and exclusion of individuals, households and communities. It means susceptibility to violence, and it often implies living on marginal or fragile environments. United Nations 1998 7:30 John Oosterhof, Dufferin County Poverty Reduction Task Force

HOW DOES POVERTY PRESENT ITSELF IN DUFFERIN?

• Poverty is “hidden” • Income and housing prices are above provincial average • People are reluctant to seek out help due to stigma and shame • General ignorance of the problem and the resulting human and financial costs • This leads to denial, stereotypes and misconceptions about people living in poverty 7:30 John Oosterhof, Dufferin County Poverty Reduction Task Force

WHY SHOULD WE CARE

• Poverty costs Ontarians approximately $32 to $38 billion per year. • $2,300 and $2,900 per Ontario household per year. • Poverty impacts our health care, social services and criminal justice systems, as well as foregone tax revenues due to lost economic opportunities. • In 2016, the County of Dufferin spent $4.2 million on social assistance benefits with 2018 projections of $4.7 million. • Estimated impact of socio-economic disparities in the health system to be 20% of all spending.

“If I could get the help I need I wouldn’t be in this situation, I'm not lazy. People think it’s easy to get out of poverty…………I would like to see them try” (Ontario Works Client)

7:30 John Oosterhof, Dufferin County Poverty Reduction Task Force

ITS NOT JUST THE MONEY….

Research shows a direct correlation between poverty and negative effects on one’s physical and mental health status, including higher prevalence rates of chronic diseases, depression, substance abuse, and shorter life expectancy. Precarious employment at minimum wage does not solve the problem.

A McMaster University study found a 21-year difference in life expectancy between the poorest and wealthiest residents of Hamilton, Ontario.

7:30 John Oosterhof, Dufferin County Poverty Reduction Task Force

SIMPLE FACTS

• 1 in 10 (or 6,000) people in Dufferin live in poverty. • Poverty costs between $2,300 and $2,900 per Ontario household per year • Poverty costs as a whole between $72 billion and $84 billion annually • Dufferin seniors who receive the Guaranteed Income Supplement live on about $17,000 per year. However, the most basic standard of living in Canada is calculated at $18,000 per year for a single person.

“I hate asking for help…..I had a job, had a family and I had a life. It just feels like society tossed me away when I hit the wall” (Ontario Works client)

7:30 John Oosterhof, Dufferin County Poverty Reduction Task Force

WHY DON’T THEY JUST GET A JOB?

• Because things have changed…….and its more complicated than that!!! • A job is not a automatic ticket out of poverty……it helps, but it alone is not the answer • Precarious employment has increased by nearly 50% over the past two decades. Good jobs are not easy to find and minimum wage jobs do not lift people out of poverty • Job market is inaccessible for those who have always lived in poverty and have not had equal access to education, mentorship opportunities or the networks that others have

“When I cash my cheque at the bank it makes me feel like I am worthless - I have little to myself but still drop a dime or two into the donation boxes where ever I see them”

7:30 John Oosterhof, Dufferin County Poverty Reduction Task Force

REALITIES OF THE GOVERNMENT’S MEASURES (AKA THE POVERTY LINE)

• What is the Low Income Measure (LIM - 2011) (50% of median adjusted income) • Family of 1 - $19K • Family of 4 - $39K • What is the Market Basket Measure (MBM - 2011) • Family of 1- $17K • Family of 4 - $34K

7:30 John Oosterhof, Dufferin County Poverty Reduction Task Force THE CYCLE OF POVERTY POVERTY OFTEN BEGETS POVERTY; IT IS A TRAP THAT IS EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO ESCAPE FROM

It is difficult being poor in a wealthy community.” – Dufferin resident 7:30 John Oosterhof, Dufferin County Poverty Reduction Task Force

POVERTY AND HOMELESSNESS

• 3 million Canadian households are precariously housed (living in unaffordable, below standards, and/or overcrowded housing conditions) • Almost 1 in every 5 households experience serious housing affordability issues (spending over 50% of their low income on rent) which puts them at risk of homelessness • Youth aged 16-24 make up about 20% of the homeless population

“I just hope to get through the night sometimes……I often see families sitting in their living rooms through their window when I walk down the street……it makes me cry” (Homeless Individual in Dufferin County)

7:30 John Oosterhof, Dufferin County Poverty Reduction Task Force

POVERTY AND FOOD INSECURITY

• From 2012-2014, approximately 14% of households in Wellington-Dufferin-Guelph region experienced food insecurity • Over 1 in 10 households are food insecure in WDG region • Worry about not having enough food • Reliance on low-cost foods • Not being able to afford balanced meals “Because there was not enough money for food” • Adults/children cut size of meals • Adults/children not eating for whole day • Adults lost weight “The last time I had 3 square meals I was in jail……..I'm just happy to have one right now” Ontario Works client

7:30 John Oosterhof, Dufferin County Poverty Reduction Task Force

WHAT ARE THE COUNTY’S PRESSURE POINTS?

• Housing • Aging In Place • Social Assistance Rates • Precarious Employment • Food Insecurity • Childhood Development 7:30 John Oosterhof, Dufferin County Poverty Reduction Task Force RIGHT IN OUR OWN BACK YARD (60,000 POPULATION) 7:30 John Oosterhof, Dufferin County Poverty Reduction Task Force

WHAT WE NEED TO DO TO ADDRESS THIS

• Find local “champions” to lead the fight against poverty • Remove the stigma around poverty and allow for access and equity • Adopt a collective approach, no one person or one area can reduce poverty – the plan needs to address root causes, be strategic and be made a priority for all • Use a shared and multi-pronged approach and coordinate our efforts • Shift the mindset around poverty and not just manage it • Advocate for good paying jobs and reduce precarious employment • Support changes in education programs to broaden employment opportunities 7:30 John Oosterhof, Dufferin County Poverty Reduction Task Force

IT COSTS US TO DO NOTHING

• Shelter Stay – $50/night approximately – $1550/month – $18K/year • Incarceration – $320/day – approximately $117K/year (federal inmate) • Hospital – $2K/day – $62K/month – $730K/year

Ontario Works rate – $720/month with other tax benefits approximately $9K/year

“ I want better for my kids, I don’t want them to have to be on welfare. If I didn't have to be here I wouldn't”

7:30 John Oosterhof, Dufferin County Poverty Reduction Task Force

THE TRUTH

• Reducing poverty is a good economic investment, but also a complex challenge • It cannot be solved by isolated interventions or the actions of a single organization • It requires the support of all three levels of government, the engagement of citizens in creating local solutions, and a cultural shift in understanding that everyone in society benefits when no one lives in poverty.

DOING NOTHING IS NOT AN OPTION! 7:30 John Oosterhof, Dufferin County Poverty Reduction Task Force

AS LEADERS WHAT WE NEED TO CONSIDER

• Political conversation about jobs and job growth must specify what kind of jobs are being created and are available. Create a reasonable standard for a living wage. • Call for all levels of governments to address unemployment, under-employment and lower wages of youth, people with disabilities, racialized persons, indigenous peoples and women • Foster awareness of poverty as complex by ensuring that it is not seen as an 'individual' problem. Funding to social programs is not a “cost”…..it’s an “investment” • Support local poverty reduction plans…….it’s as important as bridges and roads • Be ambassadors for equal access and social inclusion……..it must come from the top • Support a social safety net as an important public good From: suzanneduval Sent: Tuesday, November 28, 2017 9:44 PM To: Laura Ryan ; Ken McGhee ; Ralph Manktelow ; Sharon Mar n ; Fred Nix Subject: Fieldstone Subdivision - French Drive

Good Evening Mayor Ryan and council

1. Speeders and Truck Traffic on French Drive

We have a serious problem in Fieldstone subdivision that is worsening as months pass. The truck and commercial vehicle traffic is out of control on French Drive. Since moving in Nov 2014, we have witnessed many trucks and employees taking a short cut from First Line East onto French Drive in order to get to industrial park on the easterly end of French Drive. One day a man was speeding at at least 100kmh going to the autobody (we followed him) More recently with Orangeville Truck setting up business on French, the number of tractor trailers cutting thru the subdivision is rising weekly. Orangeville Truck is growing rapidly in the volume of trucks they are servicing. They have an advance green at first line east, and along french. Truckers dont want to go to second line east, where there is no stop light and wait on traffic in order to turn left. We absolutely need a "No Truck" policy and signage. We need police presence. We need to alert all the companies in the industrial park to alert their staff and their clients. Two years ago i called the owners of Sunshine Landscaping to report one of their employees driving like a maniac thru French dr to get into their office. Owner was happy to hear from me and willing to resolve matter. I also feel we need some speed bumps along French as a deterrent. This subdivision is full of kids, and it is amazing no one has been killed or injured.

2. Parkette - corner French Drive and First Line

This parkette was beautiful for the first year, but it is now a horrible weed patch. We have only two small parkettes in this subdivision. Given that there will be 350 homes paying $6000 to $8000 yr in taxes - surely the Town of Mono can find a few dollars for weed control. I can readily buy Round Up in Home Depot, so there must be something available to the Town. Further, we all appreciate the new sidewalk and seeding along First Line, but there is a 12 foot strip between the parkette and new seeding that is overgrown with 3 ft weeds and grasses. Surely Mono can cut the grass continuously from the parkette to the edge of first line.

3. Public Works issue

We still have several owners who have placed large and small rocks and/or landscaping material onthe property that is owned by the Town.

Thank you for your time and patience

2 of 2 MEMORANDUM

To: Mayor Laura Ryan & Town Council From: David Trotman - Director Planning Date: December 7 th, 2017 Subject Maplehurst House - Draft Agreement by MHBC Location: 487424 30 Sideroad File: Conservation Review Board (CRB 1708) * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * On February 16, 2017, the Town issued a Notice of Intention to Designate the Maplehurst House (Subject Property) located at 487424 30 Sideroad, in accordance with Section 29 of the Ontario Heritage Act. This Notice of Intention to Designate was subsequently appealed by the property owner, Greenwood (1682843 Ontario Limited), to the Ontario Conservation Review Board (CRB).

Following deliberations on October 10th, 2017, with advice from the Town Solicitor, Council passed the following Resolution #14-15-2017:

“THAT Council for the Town of Mono instructs the Director of Planning to advise in writing both the Conservation Review Board and MHBC on behalf of their client, Greenwood (1682843 Ontario Limited) respond in kind to withdraw their objection and to enter into an Agreement with the Town, with all costs incurred by Greenwood, in order to fulfill at a minimum the following: 1. Recovery of all items identified in the MHBC Cultural Salvage & Documentation Report from the Maplehurst House for donation and/or distribution, all to the satisfaction of the Town; and, 2. Restoration and display of the Maplehurst House Date Stone and commission of painting or other artwork of the Maplehurst House, to a maximum cost of $1,500.00 and to be considered for their donation to the Dufferin County Museum.

“Carried”

Agreement with 1682843 Ontario Inc. re Maplehurst House On November 24th, 2017, MHBC, on behalf of Greenwood, forwarded a draft Agreement for consideration by Town Council. The draft Agreement as submitted by MHBC did not specifically reference recovery of the Milton bricks as identified in Section 4.3 in MHBC’s September 2017 Documentation and Salvage Report. Since then, the Town’s Public Works Department has indicated an interest in using some of the Milton brickwork.

Staff have therefore amended the draft Agreement to include recovery of as much as possible of the Milton brickwork as well as recovery of as much hardwood flooring, wainscoting and panelling as possible, since some of it may be useful for making the wooden frames for the artwork identified in the Agreement (Clause 2 d) and also, if possible, for preparing a wooden pedestal for display of the Date Stone (Clause 2 b).

Town staff has modified the draft Agreement to address these issues and has also prepared a draft Bylaw that would be necessary to authorize execution of the Agreement. The Bylaw is attached as Appendix ‘A’. Schedule ‘A’ to the attached Bylaw provides the legal description of the Subject Property and Schedule ‘B’ is the draft Agreement (Maplehurst House Cultural Heritage and Salvage Agreement) as modified by staff.

The Director of Planning therefore requests that Council:

1. Pass a resolution instructing the Town Solicitor to settle the Maplehurst House Cultural Heritage and Salvage Agreement with the Owner of the Subject Property, Greenwood (1682843 Ontario Limited), in the same or substantially same format as set out in the attached Bylaw.

2. Pass the attached Bylaw authorizing the Mayor and Clerk to sign the Agreement in the same or substantially the same form as attached, to the satisfaction of the Director of Planning and the Town’s Solicitor.

MEMORANDUM

To: Mark Early, CAO/Clerk

From: Fred Simpson, Deputy Clerk

Date: December 5, 2017

Subject: Appointing an Integrity Commissioner ______

Bill 68, Modernizing Ontario's Municipal Legislation Act, proposes various amendments to the Municipal Act, 2001 including changes to the provisions concerning Integrity Commissioners. These changes require municipalities to either appoint an Integrity Commissioner or to make arrangements for all of the responsibilities of the Integrity Commissioner to be assumed by the Integrity Commissioner of another municipality.

Bill 68 also makes amendments to the Act that requires municipalities to establish codes of conduct for members of council and of local boards. In February 2016, Mono passed a Council Code of Conduct Bylaw which makes reference to an Integrity Commissioner. The articles of the bylaw pertaining to an Integrity Commissioner do not come into effect until such time as the Town appoints an Integrity Commissioner. Currently, in the absence of an Integrity Commissioner, a complaint could be made to the Provincial Ombudsman office. Their website (https://www.ombudsman.on.ca/) notes that, “our Office does not replace the role of Integrity Commissioner – rather, we encourage municipalities to have their own accountability officers and complaint processes.”

These provisions of Bill 68 are scheduled to come into effect on January 1st, 2019. As noted, all municipalities will need to provide their citizen’s access to an Integrity Commissioner (IC) either by appointing their own, keeping one on retainer, or working with another municipality through a shared service arrangement.

The purpose of this report is to review those options by looking at examples from neighbouring municipalities.

Option 1 – Retainer

Caledon appointed John Fleming, John Fleming Occasional Consulting Inc. as IC effective March 2011 through December 31st, 2018. While Mr. Fleming is not a lawyer, he has extensive background in government including having served as Deputy Minister for several Ontario

Appointing an Integrity Commissioner 2

ministries including Community & Social Services, Correctional Services, and Environment. He was also the Deputy Solicitor General from 1998 – 1999 and worked in municipal government for many years prior to his political career. He is a member of the Integrity Commissioners of Ontario and Municipal Integrity Commissioners of Ontario (MICO).

His services as IC have been retained by the Town of Caledon for an annual fee of $10,000 with the option to provide supplemental work as required at $300 per hour.

Option 2 – Appointing Our Own

Mulmur has gone this route, appointing Mary MacLachlan as IC effective January 1st, 2016 to November 30th, 2018. She is a professor at Humber College, in the Police Foundations Program, teaching several courses including, Issues in Diversity and First Nations People, Conflict Management, Contemporary Social Problems, and Canadian Criminal Justice System.

This is a volunteer position without remuneration. Ms. MacLachlan is not a lawyer; however, the Township has provided her with access to independent legal advice at the Township's expense. Errors & omissions insurance are not stipulated in the agreement.

New Tecumseth appointed John Mascarin, Aird & Berlis, LLP in 2013, effective through to March 1st, 2019. He is a lawyer, a member of Land Use Planning Group and is a Certified Specialist in Municipal Law: Local Government and Land Use Planning and Development, by the Law Society of Upper Canada. His fees range from $295 - $645 per hour depending on who at the firm is performing the work. Mr. Mascarin himself bills at $645 per hour.

Option 3 – Shared Service Agreement

The County of Dufferin has established a contract with Guy Giorno, Fasken Martineau DuMoulin LLP. Mr. Giorno is an expert in conflict of interest and government ethics. He has been a partner in Fasken Martineau continuously since 2002, except for the period July 1st, 2008 through December 31st, 2010 when he was Chief of Staff to the Prime Minister of Canada. His practice is devoted to government ethics, conflict of interest, government transparency, and related fields. He serves on the Steering Committee of the Council for Governmental Ethics Laws and chairs the Law of Lobbying and Ethics committee of the Canadian Bar Association.

Dufferin’s contract runs from July 1st, 2016 through July 1st, 2019 with an optional two year renewal. They pay a $220 annual retainer plus $100 per hour for his services. The agreement includes an option for lower tier municipalities in Dufferin to retain his services for an annual retainer of $90 per municipality and the same hourly rate.

Orangeville, Shelburne, Grand Valley and Melancthon have each signed a shared service agreement with Mr. Giorno.

Appointing an Integrity Commissioner 3

Conclusion

Looking at Dufferin County and our immediate neighbours, we see municipalities taking advantage of all three options: retainer, hiring on their own and executing a shared agreement. With the exception of Mulmur, contracting on one's own appears to be the most expensive option. Whereas Mulmur has elected to retain someone on a volunteer basis, they potentially forego having someone with the same level of legal experience as do the other municipalities examined. Dufferin County has secured the services of a lawyer who has extensive experience in governance for a cost that is well below that of Caledon & New Tecumseth.

I recommend that Mono execute the shared service contract with the County of Dufferin to retain the services of Mr. Guy Giorno as the Town’s Integrity Commissioner. This contract (to July 2019) would cover the remainder of this term of Council, and the initial months of a new council, when the matter can be re-considered.

In accordance with Bill 68, a draft bylaw is attached appointing an Integrity Commissioner. ______Fred Simpson Deputy Clerk

2.1 Approach to Project

Proposals should clearly describe the process that would be undertaken in completing this project and the unique or innovative components that the specific proposal incorporates. Proponents should be explicit in describing the methodology they will use.

GENERALPHILOSOPHYAND APPROACH

Guy's philosophy is that it Is better to provide up-front advice, support and gUidance In order to promote compliance than to conduct an Inquiry into alleged non-complrance after the fact. The steps outlrned below reflect this philosophy.

1. OUTREACHTO COUNCIL At the beginning of his term, and then at least once annually, Guy will contact each Member, individually, to ask if the Member has any questions or comments related to the Code of Conduct. The objectives will be (a) to make the Integrity Commissioner accessible and available to Members and (b) to create a culture where Members don't hesitate to ask the Integrity Commissioner about how the Code of Conduct applies to specific situations.

2. GUIDANCE/BULLETINS While under the Municipal Act such guidance would be non-binding, as Integrity Commissioner Guy will Issue periodic reports to Council to provide guidance on the application of the Code to certain common fact situatrons.

3. ANNUAL REPORTS At least annually, he will report to Council on the operation of the Code. The reports will Include brief summaries of advice given to individual Members (with all Identifying Information removed) so that all Members (and the public) can learn from the case summaries.

4. INQUIRY PROCESS By Labour Day 2016, Guy proposes to recommend to Council a draft process for handling complaints (requests) under the Code. The draft process will cover matters such as: time frames (to ensure inquiries are expeditious); notice to participants; and the right of the affected Member to comment on draft factual findings (but not the analysis or conclusions) before the report to Council is finalized, The draft process will follow an "Inquiry" model and not an "adversarial" (two sides) model.

5. RESTRAINTIN PUBLIC COMMUNICATIONS While the office of Integrity Commissioner provides a vital public service (maintenance of public confidence in the integrity of government) we believe It Is essential to respect lines of accountability and reporting. In other words, the Integrity Commissioner must report only to Council. Therefore, Guy will never discuss specific cases with the news media. Further, only at the request of the Council will he conduct news media interviews or answer media questions about general (not specific) matters, and then only to Increase public awareness of the Code and ethics. Further, except to the extent necessary to handle a complaint (request) from a member of the public that leads or could lead to an Inquiry under s. 223.4 of the Municipal Act, or to conduct an inquiry, Guy will not discuss an individual Member's conduct with a member of the public. Except to handle a complaint (request) from one Member about another Member or to conduct an Inquiry, Guy will not communicate with one Member about another Member's conduct; he will only communicate with Council as a whole.

6. NO COMMENT ABOUT ONGOING MAnERS Specifically, when a complaint about a Member (i.e. request for inquiry) Is received, as a matter of policy Guy will not discuss the complaint with, or even acknowledge it to, the news media orthe public. If the decision is made to conduct an inquiry, he will first notify the Member{s) concerned and then post on the Website a brief statement which does nothing except confirm that an inquiry Into a named Member is being conducted. Thereafter there will be no communication to the news media or public until the inquiry is completed and a report has been transmitted to Cabinet.

7. WEBSITE While the Integrity Commissioner reports to Council and not to the public, we nonetheless believe that public transparency is critical. Guy will work with County staff to ensure that the County website (1) makes it easy to a member of the public to figure out how to submit a complaint (request) to the Integrity Commissioner and (2) easily makes available the Integrity Commissioner's reports. (The Municipal Act saysthe reports must be available to the public but does not specify Web posting. Guy would insist on it.)

Appointing an Integrity Commissioner REPORT TO COUNCIL

To: Mayor Laura Ryan, Council Members and Mark Early, C.A.O. & Clerk

From: Michael Dunmore CRS, Director of Public Works/Road Superintendent

Date: November 23, 2017

Subject: CEMETERY BOARD

Purpose

This report is to give Council an update on the situation of the Cemetery Board. In order to do this, I will attempt to reiterate a bit of history.

To date there has been a Committee of Council known as the Cemetery Board consisting of three residents, who would regularly check on the cemeteries - and the Mitchell Church which is attached to one of the Cemeteries. The Church itself was used on a limited schedule for weddings etc. (the flyer attached is used for advertising purposes). If during their routine checks they found any maintenance requirements, a report to the Town would be made at which time a contractor would be hired to complete the work required.

On November 6, 2017, I met with the Secretary of the Board Mr. Earl Dodds who presented me with a letter (copy attached) informing the Town that the Board had served its purpose and should be discontinued. His recommendations and reasons are shown in the letter attached.

In all these years while overseeing the Cemeteries, the Board hired a local man to maintain the grounds and do lawn maintenance. This man has taken great pride in his maintenance skills of all Cemeteries in Mono, and thanks is shown for him in the letter.

As a result of the dissolving of the Cemetery Board, the Town will be required to oversee the maintenance and inspection of the Mitchell Church and cemeteries under control of the Town of Mono. I have attached a map showing all the cemeteries this will include.

Cemetery Board Report REPORT TO COUNCIL – CEMETERY BOARD -2-

Not covered by this report is the future of Mitchell Church from a rental perspective. Council is requested to provide direction on this matter.

I thanked Mr. Dodds on behalf of the Town, for all his years of service and wished him well in his future endeavors.

Recommendation

THAT the Mayor for the Town of Mono provide individual letters to the members of the Cemetery Board thanking them for their many years of service to the Town of Mono.

And further, THAT Council provide direction to the Public Works Department to continue the annual maintenance and inspection of the eight (8) cemeteries maintained by the Town of Mono, as follows:

Zion Blindline between 5 and 10 Sideroad Mono College Highway #10 between 5 and 10 Sideroad Granger 25 Sideroad between 1st and 2nd Line Mitchell’s 5th Line between Highway #9 and 5 Sideroad St. Francis Airport Road between Highway #9 and 5 Sideroad Snell’s Mono Adjala T/L between Highway #9 and 5 Sideroad Mono East 5 Sideroad between Airport Rd and 7th Line Wesley Mono Adjala T/L between 20 and 25 Sideroad

Mike Dunmore

Director of Public Works and Road Superintendent

We the Cemetery Board would recommend that the Board has served its purpose and should be discontinued for the following reasons.

1 The cemeteries of Mono Township are in excellent condition as the past three years we have not had to do any improvements 2 Mike for the past few years has looked after the grass cutting contract done by Bruce Hodgins (which has been doing an excellent job, Bruce took over the grass cutting from his Mother and Father which the family has been doing the cutting since 1982 ) 3 As discussed with Mike Dunmore we suggested that the Road Superintendent on his road checks could also check the cemeteries at no extra cost to the township 4 The only issues could be tree cutting or trimming here again Mike has looked after this also using the township tree trimmer contractor 5 The past 3 years we as a group have not visited the cemeteries but individually checked the cemeteries

Should we notice a problem with any of the cemeteries we would bring it to Mike's attention

Cemetery Board Report MEMORANDUM

To: Mayor Laura Ryan & Members of Council From: David Trotman - Director Planning Date: December 7th / 2017 Location: 634305 Hurontario Street Files: Consent B02 /17 & OMB File PL171199 Applicant / Owner: James Olar * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Consent Application B02/17 was received August 14th 2017. The lands to which this Application apply are described as the Part of the West Half of Lot 16 Concession 1 EHS, known as 674305 Hurontario Street (subject lands) owned by James Olar (Appellant). The subject lands have a lot area of about 38 hectares (94.41 acres). The Applicant wishes to create one new lot such that neither the retained or severed lots create any variances.

Consent Application B02/17 was first heard by Committee of Adjustment at their September 05th 2017 meeting, but since the Owner (Appellant) was not in attendance to take questions, the Application was deferred to the Committee’s October 03rd meeting. The Director of Planning prepared a Memorandum dated September 18th, in advance, for the Committee’s October 03rd meeting. This Memorandum concluded with a recommendation to approve Consent Application B02/17, however, the Committee’s October 03rd meeting resulted in a non-decision by tie vote. Consequently, the Application was referred to the Committee’s November 07th meeting in the hopes of a definitive decision. However, Committee’s November 07th meeting resulted in another non- decision by tie vote. In response to this outcome, the Owner commenced with an appeal to the OMB on November 08th, given that the ninety (90) day waiting period as prescribed in the Planning Act had lapsed.

The issue which led to the non-decision is related to agricultural policies in the Official Plan. The Memorandum of September 18th (hereto attached) sets out staff’s position on this matter (approval of Consent Application B02/17) should Council consider attending as a Party at the OMB Hearing.

Application for Consent B02/17, Olar re: Ontario Municipal Board hearing - 2 -

It has been the policy of the Town not to attend OMB Hearings on consents when it is a neighbour to neighbour issue. It is staff’s (1) day OMB Hearing. Accordingly the Director of Planning requests Council approve a Resolution, substantially in the format as noted below:

1. That Council direct Town staff to advise the Ontario Municipal Board (OMB) that the Town will not be a Party or Participant at any upcoming Hearing scheduled for Consent Application B02/17; and, 2. That Council direct Town staff to provide Council’s Resolution to the OMB, the Appellant and those requested to receive notice from the OMB.

To: Chair Bob McCrea & Committee of Adjustment From: David Trotman, Director of Planning Date: September 18th, 2017 File: Proposed Consent B02 /17 Owner: James Olar * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * ****************** Background

Consent Application B02/17 was received August 14th 2017. The lands to which this Application apply are described as Part of the West Half of Lot 16 Concession 1 EHS, shown as Part 1 on Reference Plan 7R-5547 and known municipally as 674305 Hurontario Street (subject lands) owned by James Olar (Owner). The subject lands have a lot area of about 38 hectares (94.41 acres). The Owner wishes to create one (1) new lot such that neither the retained or severed lot creates any variances, with lot sizes as follows:

1. Severed lot would have area of about 26.7 hectares (66 acres) with frontage of 440 metres (1443.57 feet) on Mono Center Road; and,

2. Retained lot would have an area of about 11.33 hectares (28 acres) with frontage of 499.97 metres (1640 feet) on Hurontario Street.

Dufferin County Official Plan (DCOP)

Section 8.6.4 - Minor Variances & Consents: Provides concise guidance respecting lot creation such that local municipal official plan policy is to provide primary guidance when considering consents to sever but must be reflective of DCOP policies as well.

Section 4.3 - Rural Lands: Outlines several objectives, policies and permitted uses for rural lands across Dufferin County.

Schedule C - Agricultural Area & Rural Lands: Identifies the subject property and abutting lands as “Rural Lands”

Town of Mono Official Plan

The subject lands are predominantly designated “Rural” but a portion of the westerly limits that flank either side of the northwest tributary of the Nottawasaga River are designated “Environmental Protection.”

- 1 -

Application for Consent B02/17, Olar re: Ontario Municipal Board hearing Town of Mono Zoning Bylaw 78-1

The subject lands are zoned in a corresponding manner such that the majority have a Rural (A) Zone. A similar portion of the subject lands flanking either side of the Nottawasaga River tributary have the Environmental Protection (EP) Zone. Nottawasaga Valley Conservation Authority (NVCA) regulated area traverses the westerly half of the lands. NVCA provided a letter dated August 28th, 2017 which states they have no objections to Consent B02/17 as proposed. NVCA also notes that the Owner’s existing house lies wholly outside of the NVCA regulated (floodplain area) limits.

History of Consent Activity

The previous owner of the original 100 acre Township half lot was granted consent in 1969 to create one new lot resulting in the current 2.98 acre lot legally described as Part 1 on Plan 7R-3095 and municipally known as 674355 Hurontario Street. This lot abuts the northwest corner of the present subject property. To date, no other severances have been granted off this original 100 acre half lot.

Consent Application B02/17 was brought to Committee of Adjustment on September 05th this year; however, the Owner was unable to attend and respond to questions of the Committee regarding lot size and configuration of the proposed retained and severed parcels. Furthermore, a letter of objection from Michael Lang, dated September 5, 2017, was submitted; hence, in view of these factors, Committee chose to defer this Application to be heard presently.

The Owner met with the Director of Planning on September 8, 2017 and agreed with the following, to:

1. Ensure his attendance at the Committee of Adjustment meeting scheduled to reconsider this Consent; and, 2. Increase the available lot area for the proposed “severed” parcel as much as possible.

At this time, the Owner provided the following facts about his property:

1. It has not been farmed since the previous owners (Todd) took possession circa mid 1960’s.

2. At the time of the Owners purchase in 2011, the Owner sought to rent out most of the subject lands for farming; however, he was advised that to rehabilitate the available portions was cost prohibitive due largely to the grade of soils but also due to their drainage characteristics.

3. Consequently, the following year the Owner conducted a forestry plantation program across much of the subject property in order to prepare for a future Forest Management Plan (FMP); and,

4. Both the retained” and “severed” portions, as proposed, would continue to allow for separate FMP’s on both parcels if Consent B02/17 is approved as proposed.

The Director of Planning can confirm that the revised lot area for the proposed “severed” lot does add as much additional acreage as feasibly possible to ensure that the existing geothermal system remains wholly within the proposed “retained” lot area.

Application for Consent B02/17, Olar re: Ontario Municipal Board hearing Provincial Policy Statement (PPS)

Section 1.1.5 - Rural Lands in Municipalities

The broad and collective policy framework of the PPS identifies key planning principles to which municipal official plans must adhere, many of which apply to this Application; however, specific policies for rural areas is outlined in Section 1.1.5 of the PPS.

The PPS notes that rural areas play a key role for sustaining (southern) Ontario’s economic advantages, particularly related to its traditional resource based and agri-business industries. Part of ensuring long term sustainability of these important industries is by strictly controlling where and how rural (non-settlement area) residential lots and uses are permitted.

Section 1.1.5.2 states:

“Rural municipal lands are to permit only limited residential development.”

Section 2.3 – Agriculture

The question as to whether the subject lands have value as arable farmland at present and over the long term also needs to be addressed. To give some context, the Town underwent an assessment in 2013, initiated and led by Ontario Ministry of Agriculture Farming & Rural Affairs (OMAFRA), to re-classify Mono’s available non-settlement lands as either “Rural” or “Prime Agricultural” and this evaluation is reflected on Official Plan Schedule ‘A’ - Land Use as amended by OPA 37. This OMAFRA led exercise concluded that the subject and abutting lands are designated “Rural”, not “Prime Agricultural”. Although both classes of lands can typically be farmed, the latter are deemed to be the most viable and important for farming and farm related operations over the long term.

Town of Mono Official Plan Section 15 - Rural Areas

Several sections of the Town’s Official Plan guide land division and rural land use activities, but Section 15 is key for this Application; with excerpts cited below.

Section 15(3)(c)(iv) - Land Division

(1) “No new lots are permitted where two or more lots have been severed from the original township half lot”.

(2) “In order to ensure a more appropriate distribution of new residential lots and to prevent land speculation, applicants shall have owned the subject lands for a period of 5 years prior to making an application for severance and further no application shall be approved for severance creating a new residential lot or lots from a parcel of land that is either the retained or severed portion of a severance application, and the consent remains in the same family ownership that has been approved less than five years”.

(3) “In order to ensure that good agricultural areas of the Town remain available on a long term basis for agriculture, farm parcel sizes should remain as large as possible. It is - 3 -

Application for Consent B02/17, Olar re: Ontario Municipal Board hearing important that farmers have a land base of sufficient size to adapt to changing farm management practices. As such, farm parcels should not be fragmented by severance of portions for non-farm uses nor should farm parcels be severed unless both the severed and retained portions are of sufficient size to ensure farm operations can engage in differing types and sizes of agricultural operation”.

(4) “Lot creation in other natural heritage features and areas shall comply with the policies of Section 24(8). Where consent will result in the fragmented ownership of the natural heritage feature, consideration shall be given to modifying the lot line to ensure the feature and its buffers remain within the one lot, to assist in the long term protection of the natural heritage feature”.

(5) “New residential uses including lot creation, in proximity to farm operations and new or expanding farm operations in proximity to existing residential uses shall comply with the relevant OMAFRA - Minimum Distance Separation Formulae (MDS)”.

Town of Mono Zoning Bylaw 78-1

If B02/17 is approved, the proposed “retained” portion would fully comply with relevant provisions in Comprehensive Zoning Bylaw 78-1 for a rural residential non-farm use under the Rural (A) Zone and on which the existing house and its outdoor amenity yards would remain.

The “severed” portion would also wholly comply with relevant provisions in Comprehensive Zoning Bylaw 78-1 for current uses under the Rural (A) Zone, including non-residential uses.

OMAFRA Minimum Distance Separation (MDS)

MDS would apply to both “retained” and “severed” portions if Consent B02/17 is approved. The Owner retained Van Harten Surveyors & Engineers to prepare his MDS report and the Report confirms both the “retained” and “severed” portions are able to conform to MDS.

Land Use Planning Analysis

This Memorandum serves to provide Committee of Adjustment with an opinion and recommendation for Consent Application B02/17.

PPS policy infers, among many other policy matters, that creation of rural (non-settlement area) lots are to be carefully assessed on the basis of their long term cumulative influences. Such assessments must therefore take guidance from relevant policy, particularly the Town of Mono Official Plan.

In reviewing the Application, the Director of Planning assessed its merits relative to the PPS, both Dufferin and Town of Mono Official Plans, and relevant provisions in Zoning Bylaw 78-1. The additional facts provided by the Owner on September 8, 2017, as well as existing lot patterns and other land use influences for this area of Mono, were also considered. All relevant factors were considered in addition to the following:

1. An OMAFRA farmland assessment conducted in 2012/2013 resulted in assigning the “Rural” land use designation over the subject property and abutting lands;

- 4 -

Application for Consent B02/17, Olar re: Ontario Municipal Board hearing 2. Conformity with applicable land use policies in the PPS, DCOP and Town Official Plan;

3. Existing lot patterns and predominance of current uses across the surrounding area;

4. “Retained” portion, as proposed, would keep intact the portions of land flanking the tributary to the Nottawasaga River and that include adjacent natural heritage features;

5. Ability of both retained” and “severed” portions, as proposed, to conform to MDS;

6. Ability of both retained” and “severed” portions, as proposed, to conform with relevant provisions in the Town’s Zoning Bylaw 78-1 without need of any minor variances; and,

7. Length of time the subject property has been owned by the Owner.

Given the above considerations, it is the opinion of the Director of Planning that Consent B02/17, as proposed, reasonably conforms with the intent and purpose of applicable land use policies, including those from the Town’s Official Plan. Further, the creation of a second new lot meets the test for maximum allowable number of lots from the original 100 acre half lot and in so doing also would result in no variances. Notwithstanding present challenges regarding the farming capability for the proposed “severed” portion, its size and frontage would exceed minimum lot area and frontage requirements for a farming use should it be feasible at some future point. Lastly, the subject lands, although of a rural nature in a portion of the broader rural Mono area have been assessed by OMAFRA as not of prime agricultural value or capability.

Recommendation

The Director of Planning can support approval of Consent Application B02/17, as proposed, subject to the Owner agreeing, to the sole satisfaction of the Town, to fulfill the following as conditions of approval:

a) That a Plan of Survey be submitted for approval by the Town, and once approved and registered, that 3 paper copies and georeferenced digital format (*.dwg or *.dxf) on a CD, be submitted to the Town;

b) That all taxes due as of the date of issuance of the Certificate of Consent, including any applicable penalties, and any other outstanding accounts payable to the Town, be paid in full prior to the issuance of the Certificate of Consent;

c) That the owner shall pay to the Town of Mono cash in lieu of parkland in the amount of $2,500.00 pursuant to Section 51.1 of the Planning Act;

d) That land for road widening purposes be conveyed with free and clear title to the Town of Mono as per Town Road Widening Policy Section 3(b) which states that “a 50 foot day lighter sight triangle shall be given at the point of intersection of the two road allowances of the subject lands”;

e) That the Owner complete a Town of Mono Entrance Application for the existing entrance to the retained lands on Hurontario Street, at no charge to the Owner;

- 5 -

Application for Consent B02/17, Olar re: Ontario Municipal Board hearing f) That conditions be fulfilled, draft Deed for Transfer of severed lands and road widening be approved, and consent finalized with a Certificate issued on or before one (1) year from the date of the Committee’s Notice of Decision.

CEO/ Head Librarian’s Report:

 Statistics You will see from the statistics for September that we are still above the numbers for last year. This of course, is an encouraging sign as we move forward with new programs and new staff.

 Table Top Games started Sunday, September 11, 2017 We have hired Scott Martell, a skilled and dedicated, “board game” player. He is well prepared, brings all his own games and came highly recommended by two moms who are patrons of the library. We hope this adds to the number of patrons who look forward to spending their Sunday afternoons with us.

 The “Savour Shelburne” event on Friday, September 29, 2017 was a success in terms of attendance and attendee response.

Minutes - Shelburne Public Library Board, October 17, 2017

Culture Days/Savour Shelburne’s theme was “making” this year, so we had 5 stations at the library on Friday, September 29th which adhered to the theme and demonstrated STEM/STEAM connections: 1. DIY Ice Cream—Manned by a high school volunteer, participants could make and take ice cream within 10 minutes 2. Build a Fort—We turned the children’s library into a fort with hundreds of boxes and allowed them to create and redesign the library 3. MakeyMakey—We introduced coding to the community at large by teaching participants how to turn pieces of fruit into musical instruments using a MakeyMakey kit and explaining how coding worked (manned by a grade 8 student) 4. LEGO creation table—Using our extensive LEGO collection, youth were encouraged to use their imagination and create a structure 5. DIY S’mores—We demonstrated how to make “walking s’mores” using pretzels, marshmallows, chocolate, and graham crumbs

We also had a collection of family-oriented cookbooks available to browse, so families could be inspired to keep “making” at home, while promoting our in-house collection. Most of the attendees stayed for the entire 2 hours we ran this program. The most popular station was the fort station, which saw several participants stay in there the whole time!

 Library Literary Event “The Many Deaths of Tom Thomson” on Sunday, October 15, 2017. This event was extremely well attended with over 50 adults present. The entire presentation was fascinating as Dr. Klages explored all the theories and background of the Tom Thomson “mystery”. After the presentation, the Book Cooks served a delicious variety of Canadian themed foods. Moose burgers and moose chili, smoked salmon, butter tarts and `s`mores delighted the palates of all and the chefs received rave reviews. We had a great time, mingling with patrons and noting their interest in this topic.

From: Shara Bagnell, Health & Safety Advisor

Subject: Arena Facility Safety Systems

Date: June 2017

Purpose

The purpose of this report is to provide information regarding the hazards of carbon monoxide and other atmospheric hazards in arenas. The report will review legislative requirements and recommendations regarding industry standards and best practice to mitigate these hazards.

Background and Discussion

Recent incidents involving workers being exposed to hazardous levels of carbon monoxide in the workplace prompted an investigation by the health & safety office into industry standards and best practice regarding CO detection, alerting, and procedures in responding to a carbon monoxide emergency in workplaces. In doing this, some gaps were identified in the detection and monitoring of additional atmospheric hazards in Municipal facilities, like arenas.

Existing Gaps:

1. Detection and ventilation of carbon monoxide in areas where fuel-fired equipment is being operated. 5 New Detectors and repair ventilation and a procedure for edging.

2. Propane detection in the area where the ice resurfacing units are parked inside the facility to detect possible leaks. Already in place with auto fan and hot water shut off

3. Monitoring of Ammonia alarms. Proposals attached

Carbon monoxide is a by-product of incomplete combustion. It is also colourless and odourless, so without a means to detect carbon monoxide in areas where fuel-fired appliances are being operated, workers can be exposed to harmful levels unknowingly. Common sources of carbon monoxide in Municipal workplaces are:

1. Fuel-fired equipment running inside a building (graders, plow trucks, ice resurfacing equipment, generators, space heaters, pressure washers)

2. Fuel-fired appliances (furnaces, water heaters, etc.) that are operating improperly.

In areas where fuel-fired equipment producing an exhaust known to contain contaminants such as carbon monoxide is being run, a means to detect and ventilate

Minutes - Centre Dufferin Recreation Complex, October 25, 2017 CDRC Minutes October 25, 2017 Pg:7 of 8 The hazard must be implemented. In facilities containing fuel-fired appliances such as furnaces/ water heaters, a means to detect and alert the occupants to a carbon monoxide emergency should be considered Hazards of Propane-Fired Equipment

Hazards of Propane (C3H8): The main hazard of propane is that it is extremely flammable. The maximum concentration that workers can be exposed to over an 8 hr period is 1000 ppm. The Short Term Exposure Value is not listed on Safety Data Sheet information, or by the American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists. Propane is heavier than air, and can accumulate in low-lying areas and confined spaces such as maintenance pits, and catch basins. Higher concentrations of propane can act as an asphyxiant by displacing Oxygen in breathing air. If a leak were to occur where the Ice resurfacing unit is parked, or where propane is stored indoors, there must be a means to detect concentrations of propane above unsafe levels and alert employees to the hazard.

Hazards of Ammonia

Ammonia is used in the refrigeration process for making ice. This product is a corrosive, fast-acting poison that can be fatal if inhaled, absorbed through the skin, or swallowed. The time weighted average for ammonia is 25 ppm. The Ammonia alarm

system has an external display showing ammonia levels inside the space so that staff can ensure levels are below 25 ppm prior to entry for daily checks. If the compressor room alarm system does not allow staff to view levels once inside the space, or alarm until 100 ppm are reached, measures must be implemented to alert workers to a hazardous atmosphere greater than 25 ppm while they are inside the compressor room.

Most ammonia alarms have an audible alarm inside the compressor room, and flashing light outside the room that is activated when levels reach between 100 and 150 ppm to alert staff to an emergency within the space before entering. Alarm systems are also designed to automatically ventilate a hazardous atmosphere to the outside if levels of 300 ppm are reached.

Existing ammonia alarm systems rely on staff being able to hear or see the alarm to know there is an emergency. This is not possible from everywhere in the building, and an emergency could go undetected, even while the building is occupied.

Legal Considerations

Regulation 851 for Industrial Establishments under the Occupational Health and Safety Act requires that hazardous atmospheres be ventilated by natural or mechanical means. A ventilation system interconnected with equipment to detect carbon monoxide and nitrogen dioxide in areas that the ice resurfacing unit will be operating would address the hazard. Additionally, installation of propane detection in areas that the ice resurfacing unit is parked or propane cylinders are being stored inside would be a reasonable precaution to take to protect workers.

Minutes - Centre Dufferin Recreation Complex, October 25, 2017 CDRC Minutes October 25, 2017 Pg:8 of 8 Recommendations

THAT a system to detect and automatically ventilate contaminants produced by fuel-fired equipment, and alert staff and occupants to a hazardous atmosphere be installed.

And THAT, measures be implemented to alert workers to a hazardous atmosphere containing > 25 ppm of Ammonia while work is being performed inside the compressor room.

And THAT, the existing ammonia alarm system be monitored.

County and Municipal Health and Safety Advisor

To meet existing gaps and recommendations would like to proceed with the following quotes.

Have discussed options with several service providers.

1: Horn /strobe ammonia - $695.00 (Requirement)

2: Ammonia system alarm - $1,700.00 plus monitoring company to hook up to panel (Recommendation)

Minutes - Joint Police Services Board, October 27, 2017

7. Project Lifesaver International The Staff Sergeant handed out literature explaining Project Lifesaver International, a non-profit organization based in the United States, which offers a radio tracking and locating system designed for at risk individuals (Alzheimer’s, autism, etc.). Both Caledon and Peel OPP utilize this program. The Board discussed the range of the tracking device which is approximately 1 – 2 km, other forms of tracking devices, and whether or not there was a need for it in Dufferin.

Moved by Darren White, Seconded by Don MacIver: That the Joint Police Services Board moves that the Dufferin OPP initiate fact-finding and consult with appropriate agencies in Dufferin County on the prospect of implementing Project Lifesaver in Dufferin County AND report back to the next Joint Police Services Board meeting. Carried.

8. OPP 2017-2019 Action Plan Dufferin Detachment The Staff Sergeant advised the Board that the data was incorrect regarding the staffing numbers and would be corrected shortly. She also noted that the Action Plan is largely an extension of the plan from 2014-2016 based on feedback from the membership and the results achieved overall. The Action Plan outlines the OPP’s priorities, which include reducing violent crime (mostly domestic violence), property crime (break & enter, theft over $5,000, theft under $5,000 and mischief) as well as illicit drugs (including opioids). The report identifies the challenges and the relevant activity underway. The Board discussed educating the public on these issues, cultural messaging, billboard programs, working with victim services and community policing meetings.

9. Items for Discussion:

a. Automatic License Plate Reader (ALPR) vehicle. (from last meeting) (Melancthon) The Staff Sergeant updated the Board and advised that the car was deployed in March of 2017 for a period of one month with a great deal of success. The vehicle will be returning for the month of November. Lack of training to use the vehicle resulted in the most use by 2 or three officers. Since then more officers have been trained in the use of the machine.

b. County of Dufferin letter regarding Speed Enforcement on Dufferin County Roads in response to motion passed by Joint Board last meeting. (Melancthon) DRAFT The Staff Sergeant expressed that while she can appreciate that everyone would like increased enforcement, in an effort to work smarter and manage a finite number of resources, most enforcement efforts will be intentional, directed, and based on analytical evidence that indicates there is a problem. The County has advised the OPP that they would be putting in radar tracking to get data so that the OPP knows where the problem areas are. The Board questioned if the County was offering any financial support but as policing is not under the County’s jurisdiction, it probably would not.

The Staff Sergeant requested that municipalities submit their raw data from radar tracking devices to the OPP in metric to help determine which areas may need additional enforcement.

Minutes - Joint Police Services Board, October 27, 2017 c. Number of Opioid use incidents and what has been done to give the officers the tools to deal with these types of incident? (Amaranth) The Staff Sergeant advised that opioid use incidents is not data that they keep related to calls for service and thinks that more reliable data might be available from Dufferin Paramedic Services or Dufferin Community Health. She is not aware of any overdose deaths in Dufferin. The Staff Sergeant noted that as police, they do not often get factual information related to the drug involved and can only report anecdotally from the victim or witnesses. The Dufferin OPP does have the tools and education for officers, including Naloxone, to deal with opioid use incidents. The Staff Sergeant explained the Good Samaritan Drug Overdose Act. The Board discussed the use of Naloxone and that it can be dangerous for the public to administer it. The best course of action is to call 911 and begin administering CPR.

d. Do OPP officers have updated training to deal with Mental Illness Incidents? (Amaranth) The Staff Sergeant stated that officers receive training yearly and receive updated training as new techniques or information becomes available. (R2MR- for officers, De-escalation training, Criminal statute training etc.) Dufferin OPP partners with CAMH and works toward intervention by health services. Recently switched to Peel Mental Health from Wellington for Crisis services as they offer 24 hour reporting and crisis intervention services.

e. Provincial Offences Act (POA) Court Update. The Staff Sergeant advised that as far as the Police were aware, POA court will remain in Dufferin. Court dates were decreased to Wednesdays only with other dates made available for matters that will take the entire day or require a special prosecutor etc. The Board was advised by other members that this issue was not yet resolved and that Caledon was still hoping to move court back to Caledon. The Staff Sergeant stated that there had been no discussion with the police as to the costs associated with moving POA court to Caledon.

Direction given to the OPP to review options that work for our police and the impact on services and costs and send a report to County Council.

f. Half Load Season – Enforcement by OPP. (Melancthon) The Staff Sergeant stated that the Dufferin OPP is open to conducting enforcement of the half load by-law; however, they are restricted as they are not trained in, nor do they have a set of scales at the detachment. The Dufferin OPP rely on the Central Region traffic unit, but unfortunately they do not alwaysDRAFT carry scales with them. The Staff Sergeant said it would be about $5,000 - $6,000 to purchase a set for the Dufferin detachment.

The Board discussed the possibility of the Police Services Boards sharing the cost of the scales. The Board discussed how to manage the sharing between the municipalities. Staff Sergeant Randall noted that the OPP can set up designated blitz days. It was also noted that some municipalities call the Ministry of Transportation (MTO) for enforcement.

Moved by Darren White, Seconded by David Thwaites: That the Joint Police Services Board supports the purchase of scales for the OPP to enforce half load season with cost sharing among the Boards upon presentation of data from the OPP. Carried.

Minutes - Joint Police Services Board, October 27, 2017 g. What is the authorized strength of the local Detachment and what is the actual strength? (Amaranth) The Staff Sergeant advised the Board that the authorized strength is 31, 2 civilian members, 1 Staff Sergeant, 4 sergeants, and 24 constables. There is currently one vacancy at the detachment - Sergeant Zayachkowski’s position. Regarding physical presence, there are 2 civilians, 1 Staff Sergeant, 3 sergeants, and 20 constables. There are 2 probationary constables at OPP Police College in Aylmer, 1 experienced police officer at the OPP Academy in Orillia, and one member’s position not backfilled.

h. What Community Service/Engagement programs is the Detachment regularly involved in? (Amaranth) The Staff Sergeant reviewed the many community service/engagement programs including: Situation Table, Domestic Violence Review Team, Child Abuse Review Team, Human Services and Justice Coordinating Committee, Violence Threat Risk Assessment, OPP Kids, various fund-raising activities, shop with a cop, lock it or lose it, winter driving warnings and tips in conjunction with ski and beach destinations, as well as local residents (Twitter, FaceBook, Instagram); continue to work toward a satellite auxiliary unit to increase Safeguard initiatives, an ongoing initiative related to senior frauds.

i. Procedure for providing a complaint to the OPP clarified. (Amaranth) Staff Sergeant Randall clarified the procedure for providing a complaint to the OPP. If a municipality gets telephone and/or email complaints from the community and/or employees regarding traffic related matters, such as heavy trucks, ATV, speeders, stop sign running or aggressive driving, please ask them to call 1 888 310 1122. The communication centre will then create a call for service for the Dufferin OPP officers. If someone is reluctant to call directly to the communications center, please have them call the detachment. The detachment personnel will forward complainants to the communication center to create a call for service.

The immediate impact should reduce delays and over the course of the interaction, create a record and hopefully a pattern of occurrence time, days of week and location to assist us in responding to the issues, and/or determining future course of action.

If there are cases where Township or County staff are aware of upcoming projects/seasonal issues etc., where there is time to strategize a response, for example half load season, and known upcoming construction project that will divert traffic, cause heavy truck traffic etc., that would be a situation where an emailDRAFT or telephone call to the detachment would be in order.

j. Auxiliary to OPP for safeguard program update/implement. (Melancthon) The Staff Sergeant advised the Board that she continues to move forward to have an auxiliary OPP presence in Dufferin. On Monday Oct 23 she spoke to the provincial program co-ordinator and they are moving onto the next step. Nottawasaga has an auxiliary unit and they will host a satellite unit that will serve in Dufferin County. That unit strength will be increased to permit the members to serve both jurisdictions without a reduction of hours. Nottawasaga Auxiliary members currently conduct SafeGuard assessments in Dufferin County.

Minutes - Joint Police Services Board, October 27, 2017 k. Tow Truck updates from Police Agencies serving Dufferin. (Mono) Staff Sergeant Randall advised the Board that the member can utilize the first available tow at a scene when he/she feels there is a need to expedite the removal of a vehicle due to concerns for safety, when the roadway involved is a main highway, or has limited alternate routes and where there is a high rate of traffic flow. The member must speak to the driver or owner to find out the towing company they wish to use. Finally, in the absence of a tow truck or any direction from the driver or owner, the member shall then use the local tow association/rotation.

The Board was advised that the County was rescinding its Anti Chasing By-law as it was not in its purview to have one and that members should advise their Councils of same.

Additional Item: Susan Wilson, Grand Valley PSB, advised the Board that Bill 65, Safer School Zones Act, 2017 was now in affect and was wondering if the OPP had photo radar cameras that could be rented and/or set up in these zones. The Staff Sergeant stated that photo radar was not in the OPP’s jurisdiction, but the OPP should be advised if your municipality is utilizing photo radar.

Laura Ryan Mayor, Town of Mono 347209 Mono Centre Road Dufferin County Road. #8 Mono, ON L9W 6S3

~.~ Dear MrRyan,

Re: Credit Valley Conservation's (CVC's) new brand

I am excited to introduce you to Credit Valley Conservation's fresh new look and identity - a new logo and taqline as part of a new brand for the organization. Our new logo is a fresh, modern image of our proud vision - the vision of a thriving environment that protects, connects and sustains us.

At its core the new logo contains a leaf (nature) that includes a feather (wildlife). The leaf in the shape of a water droplet has branching "veins" of exploration (our trails). The blue "wave" conveys movement and water. The bright orange represents the land that anchors us and the vibrancy of our many communities. Our tagline, "inspired by nature," captures the energy, passion and commitment of our organization to the environment.

The new brand is more than the logo. It's shown in the way we champion conservation. It's in the way we speak about our work and in how others talk about what we're doing. It serves us well now, and will continue to be relevant 20 years from now.

Our new visual identity will be introduced strategically over the next two plus years. You'll begin to see it on frequently-used items like letterhead and corporate digital properties. Over time it will be phased into services, a new website and capital assets.

Credit Valley Conservation is proud to create connections between people and nature, knowledge and action. We lead the protection, restoration and enhancement of our local natural environment, and we inspire a deep appreciation for the role of nature in keeping us connected, healthy and happy.

Thank you for collaborating with us on critical contributions for the natural environment. We look forward to continuing to connect with you.

As always, if you have questions or comments, please don't hesitate to get in touch.

Sincerely,

~bJJ-~ Deborah Martin-Downs Chief Administrative Officer

RES.#A207/17 - MEETING SCHEDULE 2018-2019 Schedule of board meetings for the period beginning February 23, 2018 and ending January 23, 2019.

Moved by: Jennifer McKelvie Seconded by: Jack Heath

THAT Meeting Schedule 2018-2019, dated October 20, 2017, be approved;

THAT Meeting Schedule 2017-2018 be amended such that the February 2, 2018 Executive Committee meeting be changed to February 9, 2018;

THAT the Executive Committee be delegated the powers of the Authority during the month of August, 2018, as defined in Section 2.10 of the Rules of Conduct;

AND FURTHER THAT the CEO's Office distribute this schedule at the earliest opportunity to Toronto and Region Conservation Authority's (TRCA) watershed municipalities and the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry. CARRIED RATIONALE Since most Authority members also sit on municipal councils, boards or committees, which usually meet on days other than Friday, the recommended schedule accommodates TRCA board meetings on Fridays. Staff has made every effort to avoid conflicts with municipal council meetings, Federation of Canadian Municipalities' (FCM) annual conference and Board of Directors meetings, Board of Governors of Exhibition Place meetings, statutory holidays and school March breaks, in selecting the proposed meeting days, while still maintaining a schedule which meets TRCA's functional needs. There are some meetings that are the same week as Toronto City Council, so if the City meeting runs into extra days, a conflict may occur. Given the long weekends, other conflicts noted above and TRCA reporting requirements, these are the optimal dates for the meetings.

The January and February 2018 meetings were previously approved in Meeting Schedule 2017-2018, but are provided in Attachment 1 for assistance in updating calendars, with one change such that the February 2, 2018 meeting is recommended to be moved to February 9, 2018 due to a conflict with Toronto Council.

An Authority meeting is not scheduled in the month of August due to summer vacations. To accommodate the large number of permit requests at this time, an Executive Committee meeting is scheduled. Should an item require Authority approval in August, Section 2.10 of the Authority's Rules of Conduct permits the Authority to delegate its powers to the Executive Committee:

2.10 to exercise such additional powers, excluding those powers set out in Clause (d) of Subsection (1) of Section 30 of the Act, as may be assigned to it by the Authority during the months of July and August provided that a report be given to the Authority at the first meeting of the Authority thereafter;

Toronto and Region Conservation Authority 2018/2019587 Meeting Schedule Staff is recommending powers be assigned to the Executive Committee for August, 2018, with the required report being brought to the Authority at its meeting proposed to be held on September 28, 2018. Staff is also recommending that the August Executive Committee meeting be conducted with the option of teleconferencing due to the lighter agenda, unless otherwise advised as a result of items scheduled.

At Authority Annual Meeting #1/02, held on January 25, 2002, Resolution #A6/02 was approved in part as follows:

THAT the dates of future Annual Meetings be changed to accommodate the budget meeting schedule for our member municipalities, such that the Annual Meeting held following a municipal election be in January while the Annual Meetings in the interim two years between elections be moved to February;

In accordance with Resolution #A6/02, the 2019 annual Authority meeting is proposed to be held on Friday, January 23, 2019.

Meetings will be held at TRCA’s Head Office at 101 Exchange Avenue, Vaughan. The Authority and Executive Committee meetings will be held at 9:30 a.m. with the exception of the Annual meeting which will be held at 10:30 a.m. at Black Creek Pioneer Village. The Budget/Audit Advisory Board (BAAB) meetings will be held at 8:30 a.m.

Members are requested to enter all board meetings in their calendars upon receipt of the annual schedule. Members are further requested to schedule to be in attendance at Authority and Executive Committee meetings from the start of the meeting until at least 1:30 p.m. to ensure quorum is maintained.

RES.#A185/17 - 2016 LAKE ONTARIO WORKSHOP AND 2017/2018 WESTERN LAKE ONTARIO BASIN-LAKE INITIATIVE To inform the Authority on upcoming efforts to integrate watershed management activities with Lake Ontario Initiatives, and recommend directions to advance these efforts.

Moved by: David Barrow Seconded by: Ronald Chopowick

WHEREAS Toronto and Region Conservation Authority (TRCA) and Credit Valley Conservation Authority (CVC), with funding support from Environment and Climate Change Canada and Ontario Ministry of the Environment and Climate Change, held a workshop on September 19-20, 2016 (Developing a Western Lake Ontario Consortium(s), Promoting cooperative thinking, planning and actions for the populated/most at risk areas of Lake Ontario) to gauge interest in western Lake Ontario, discuss the merits of working together to protect this unique part of the Lake and to make the connections between actions on land and the health of western Lake Ontario;

AND WHEREAS Environment and Climate Change Canada has since provided additional funding to further this Basin-Lake Initiative through a number of workshops and engagement activities in 2017 and 2018;

THEREFORE LET IT BE RESOLVED THAT TRCA staff continue to work with CVC, federal, provincial and municipal staff, other local conservation authorities, the academic community, environmental non-governmental organizations, and others to integrate watershed management and Lake health to address the needs of western Lake Ontario;

THAT TRCA staff explore the development of a model for achieving collaborative arrangements necessary for coordination of efforts on the land that could benefit the nearshore of western Lake Ontario;

THAT staff from TRCA and CVC present to the Greater Golden Horseshoe Chief Administrative Officers’ and General Managers’ November 2017 meeting seeking endorsement and guidance on the pursuit of collaborative arrangements;

THAT findings from this effort and future Basin-Lake Initiative be integrated into the next generation of watershed plans within the Lake Ontario basin;

THAT staff from TRCA and CVC report back to their boards at the conclusion of the 2017/2018 workshops;

Toronto and Region Conservation Authority re: 2017/2018526 Western Lake Ont... AND FURTHER THAT Environment and Climate Change Canada, Ontario Ministry of the Environment and Climate Change, provincial and federal governments, neighbouring municipalities and conservation authorities to the subject area, the Great Lakes Cities Initiative, and Conservation Ontario be so advised. CARRIED BACKGROUND The western basin of Lake Ontario is the receiving waters for one of the most highly populated regions in Canada. This region of the lake, from Cobourg to Niagara-on-the-Lake, has a long history of water quality and ecosystem health concerns, with pollutant and nutrient loadings from the land significantly impacting the lake. Under the Great Lakes Water Quality Agreement (GLWQA), the governments of Canada and the United States have committed to restore and maintain the physical and biological integrity of the waters of the Great Lakes. The GLWQA formed a Great Lakes Executive Committee which includes Watershed Management Agency representatives from both countries; Conservation Ontario (CO) has a representative at this table and regular reports are provided to CO Council.

The Lake Ontario Lakewide Action and Management Plan (LAMP) is a binational plan for restoring and protecting Lake Ontario’s ecosystem. Effective collaboration among various jurisdictions and organizations is a priority of the Lakewide Annex of the Canada-U.S. Great Lakes Water Quality Agreement and the corresponding LAMP. The Conservation Ontario representative on the Annex Committee has encouraged a stronger acknowledgement of the watershed management agency/conservation authority (CA) role in LAMPs. Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) and the Ontario Ministry of the Environment and Climate Change (MOECC) are interested in seeking better relationships with their partners for LAMP implementation, with a goal of supporting community engagement in decision making, and taking action to restore, protect and conserve Lake Ontario.

The 2016 workshop, entitled: “Developing a Western Lake Ontario Consortium(s), Promoting cooperative thinking, planning and actions for the populated/most at risk areas of Lake Ontario” had an overwhelmingly positive response with 90 participants from local and upper tier municipalities, provincial and federal governments, conservation authorities, non-government organizations, and several academics. Interest and momentum for this event was secured through peer-to-peer engagement and promotion.

This workshop served as a forum to discuss collaborative actions that can be implemented to restore, preserve and protect Lake Ontario. The goals of the workshop were to:  Establish that western Lake Ontario needs to be a focus;  Demonstrate how local partnerships help binational and provincial efforts to protect and treat the lakes as an entity;  Determine the specific needs/approaches for western Lake Ontario;  Identify past and existing cooperative arrangements within western Lake Ontario;  Examine other approaches for partnerships/consortiums in other lakes (e.g. Healthy Lake Huron, Lake Simcoe);  Identify steps to determine a successful and appropriate model for coordinating efforts and collaborating along western Lake Ontario;

Toronto and Region Conservation Authority re: 2017/2018527 Western Lake Ont... Three breakout sessions identified a willingness to be a part of a locally led Lake Ontario initiative that has a clearly defined vision. Being part of an initiative will allow collecting of resources and a concentration of efforts on land that can benefit the land, rivers and Lake Ontario. A champion needs to be identified who can help develop an organizational structure and lead this initiative, and play a significant role in bridging the gap between land and lake health.

To further this Basin-Lake Initiative, TRCA and CVC will hold two workshops that will explore the connectivity between watersheds and Lake Ontario. Potential themes will include: documenting current research and efforts amongst organizations that might impact Lake Ontario; exploring creative ways to support management actions to focus on growth, adaptation, implementation and minimizing the effects of growth on the nearshore of the Lake; approaches for integrating science, policy and implementation; and exploring synergies between the Western Lake Ontario Basin-Lake Initiative and other binational efforts aiming to restore Lake Ontario water quality.

RATIONALE Formal reports from the first workshop were submitted to the provincial and federal governments, in accordance with their deadlines of November 15, and December 31, 2016, respectively. Two workshops are proposed to be held, in autumn 2017 and winter 2018, to further this initiative. Further reporting will be submitted to the government in March 2018.

FINANCIAL DETAILS Funding for the 2016 workshop was provided by ECCC ($5,000) and MOECC ($5,000). New resources ($40,000) have been provided by ECCC to continue the evolution of this concept in 2017/2018. MOECC will also contribute to the 2017/2018 workshops ($5,000).

DETAILS OF WORK TO BE DONE Staff will incorporate feedback from the Authority and from the Greater Golden Horseshoe Chief Administrative Officers’ and General Managers’ November meeting into comments to include in future reporting to the federal and provincial governments.

Staff will continue to pursue focused engagement from Niagara-on-the-Lake to Cobourg. The first event (fall 2017) will focus on engaging delegates from Niagara-on-the Lake to Halton, as they were under-represented at the initial 2016 workshop. The second event (winter 2018) will bring together a subset of the Niagara-on-the-Lake to Halton participants from 2017 and a subset of the 90 original workshop participants, predominantly from Mississauga to Cobourg, to discuss next steps and explore collaborative arrangements necessary for coordination of efforts on the land and within the nearshore of western Lake Ontario.

Ontario Strengthens Emergency Management Program First Steps in Action Plan Include New Urban Search and Rescue Resources in the North

NEWS December 1, 2017

Ontario is making changes to its emergency management program in order to better protect public safety, and prevent and respond to existing and evolving risks.

As part of Ontario’s new Emergency Management Action Plan, the province is investing in a Light Urban Search and Rescue (USAR) team in Thunder Bay so that specialized equipment and resources can be more quickly deployed in an emergency. Work to improve the search and rescue capacity across the province will continue to address recommendations in the Elliot Lake Commission of Inquiry’s report.

In addition, the province will be recruiting a dedicated Chief of Emergency Management to help ensure effective oversight and governance of emergency management across Ontario.

Ontario is also taking immediate steps to:

. Enhance governance structures and implement a robust performance measurement and evaluation framework to build on lessons learned from previous incidents to support continuous improvement . Review and update the Emergency Management and Civil Protection Act and the Provincial Emergency Response Plan in consultation with stakeholders so that they are consistent with national and international best practices and a modern approach to emergency management . Release an updated Provincial Nuclear Emergency Response Plan by the end of 2017 . Pursue expansion of emergency management capacity through agreements with neighbouring jurisdictions to share support and resources in an emergency . Support municipalities in accessing critical supplies and resources in an emergency by improving the supply chain and logistics program, and enhance information and resource sharing among municipalities and the province by deploying emergency management software.

These actions are the first step in Ontario’s Emergency Management Action Plan. The province will continue to work with emergency management partners to build a system that is collaborative, proactive, and able to adapt to the unique circumstances of communities across the province.

Ontario’s plan to create fairness and opportunity during this period of rapid economic change includes a higher minimum wage and better working conditions, free tuition for hundreds of thousands of students, easier access to affordable child care, and free prescription drugs for everyone under 25 through the biggest expansion of medicare in a generation.

QUOTES

Ministry of Community Safety and Correctional Services announcement re: ... “The safety of the people of Ontario is our top priority, and the government must be prepared to respond to any type of emergency. In times of crisis, rapid and effective emergency response saves lives and helps communities recover quickly. We have learned important lessons from recent emergencies in Ontario. This review and transformation will result in a better, more effective emergency management system in Ontario.” — Marie-France Lalonde, Minister of Community Safety and Correctional Services

“As we witness devastating natural disasters occurring throughout the world, it is critically important that our emergency management framework is transformed to ensure Ontario is as resilient as possible, and we are prepared to respond effectively to complex major incidents.” — Ross Nichols, Ontario Fire Marshal and Chief, Emergency Management

QUICK FACTS

. In December 2016, Ontario initiated an independent review of Ontario’s emergency management system that helped inform the development of the Emergency Management Action Plan. . The Emergency Management and Civil Protection Act, 2006 and associated regulations set out mandatory basic emergency program requirements in Ontario. . The Office of the Fire Marshal and Emergency Management is responsible for monitoring, coordinating and assisting in the development and implementation of emergency management programs in Ontario. . All municipalities and provincial ministries in Ontario must meet a legislated standard of emergency management, including conducting hazard and risk assessments for their areas of responsibility, developing programs and plans to address those risks, and conducting annual training exercises. . The Elliot Lake Commission of Inquiry was created on July 19, 2012 to investigate the events surrounding the Algo Centre Mall collapse, which claimed two lives and injured 19 others. Commissioner Paul Bélanger submitted his final report to the Attorney General on October 15, 2014. . USAR brings together people with specialized rescue skills and other resources for search, medical and structural assessment. USAR teams rescue victims from major structural collapse or other entrapments due to a variety of incidents, including earthquakes, tornadoes, severe storms and explosions.

- - 2 Ministry of Community Safety and Correctional Services announcement re: ... From: Sandor, Spencer (MMA/MHO) [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, November 29, 2017 1:10 PM To: Les Halucha Subject: Financial Indicator Reviews 2017

The Ministry of Municipal Affairs reviews each municipality’s financial performance through the use of key financial indicators in relation to established provincial thresholds. Please find attached the financial indicator template that has been calculated using your 2016 FIR data, as well as a list of municipal groupings used by the Ministry to facilitate analysis.

The Ministry reviews the indicators from time-to-time, to make sure they provide useful information, and you will notice that there have been a few changes in the report this year.

The indicators have been grouped according to two categories, Sustainability and Flexibility. These groupings align the indicators with the Public Sector Accounting Boards definitions. The indicators have also been updated to align with the work done by the Municipal Budgeting and Long Term Financial Planning Action Group, which had representation from ministry staff, municipal treasurers, and MFOA.

There are two new indicators. Cash and Cash Equivalents as a Percentage of Current Liabilities replaces Total Cash and Cash Equivalents as a Percentage of Operating Expenses as the liquidity measure. Operating Surplus Ratio is a new indicator that measures the ability to cover operational costs and have funds available for other purposes. Definitions for all indicators are included in the notes section of the report.

The thresholds for the Asset Consumption Ratio indicator has also been changed. Low challenge is now anything less than or equal to 50%, moderate challenge between 50% and 75%, and high anything greater than 75%.

Financial indicators are an important but incomplete indicator of municipal financial health. For that reason, we may have contacted your office in order to discuss the indicator results and better understand your municipality’s overall financial circumstances.

For your municipality, there is only one indicator showing medium challenge, however it is 0.5% from falling into the ‘low challenge’ category. As we have discussed in the past, these are point- in-time reviews and are provided for your information. As always, I am available to discuss these indicators further.

Because I am sometimes asked for the data points from the FIR for these indicators, I am including them below.

Financial Information Returns ("FIRs") are a standard set of year-end reports submitted by municipalities to the Province which capture certain financial information. On an annual basis, Ministry staff prepare certain financial indicators for each municipality, based on the information contained in the FIRs. It is important to remember that these financial indicators provide a snapshot at a particular moment in time and should not be considered in isolation, but supported with other relevant information sources. In keeping with our Financial Information Return review process and follow-up, Ministry staff may routinely contact and discuss this information with municipal officials.

Supplementary Indicators of Sustainability and Flexibility The following is a summary, adapted from the Chartered Professional Accountants of Canada Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) 4. l A government (including a municipality) may choose to report supplementary information on financial condition, to expand on and help explain the government's financial statements. l Supplementary assessment of a government's financial condition needs to consider the elements of sustainability and flexibility. l Sustainability in this context may be seen as the degree to which a municipality can maintain its existing financial obligations both in respect of its service commitments to the public and financial commitments to creditors, employees and others without inappropriately increasing the debt or tax burden relative to the economy within which it operates. l Sustainability is an important element to include in an assessment of financial condition because it may help to describe a government's ability to manage its financial and service commitments and debt burden. It may also help to describe the impact that the level of debt could have on service provision. l Flexibility is the degree to which a government can change its debt or tax level on the economy within which it operates to meet its existing financial obligations both in respect of its service commitments to the public and financial commitments to creditors, employees and others. l Flexibility provides insights into how a government manages its finances. Increasing taxation or user fees may reduce a municipality's flexibility to respond when adverse circumstances develop if the municipality approaches the limit that citizens and businesses are willing to bear. A government that increases its current borrowing reduces its future flexibility to respond when adverse economic circumstances develop. l For each element of financial condition, the report on indicators of financial condition should include municipality-specific indicators and municipality-related indicators. It may be useful to also include economy-wide information when discussing financial condition.

Additional Notes on what Financial Indicators may indicate:

Total Taxes Receivable less Allowance for Uncollectibles as a % of Total Taxes Levied - How much of the taxes billed are not collected.

Net Financial Assets or Net Debt as a % of Own Purpose Taxation Plus User Fees - How much tax and fee revenue is servicing debt?

Reserves and Reserve Funds as a % of Operating Expenses - How much money is set aside for future needs / contingencies?

Cash and Cash Equivalents as a % of Current Liabilities - Measures the ability of the municipality to meet its current obligations with its current resources on hand.

Debt Servicing Cost as a % of Total Operating Revenue - Indicates the extent to which past borrowing decisions may impact the current budget.

Asset Consumption Ratio - measures the age of a municipality's physical assets. It measures the extent to which depreciable assets have been consumed by comparing the amount of the assets that have been used up and their cost.

Operating Surplus Ratio - Indicates the municipality's ability to cover its operational costs and have funds available for other purposes (i.e. reserves, debt repayment, etc.)

The Northern and Rural Municipal Fiscal Circumstances Index (MFCI) is used by the Ministry of Finance to calculate the "Northern and Rural Fiscal Circumstances Grant" aimed at northern as well as single and lower-tier rural municipalities. The index measures a municipality’s fiscal circumstances. The MFCI is determined by six indicators: Weighted Assessment per Household, Median Household Income, Average Annual Change in Assessment (New Construction), Employment Rate, Ratio of Working Age to Dependent Population, and Per Cent of Population Above Low-Income Threshold. A lower MFCI corresponds to relatively positive fiscal circumstances, whereas a higher MFCI corresponds to more challenging fiscal circumstances. (Note: the MFCI index is only available for northern and rural municipalities)

Dear Sir or Madam: I am pleased to inform you of the release of Building Better Lives: Ontario’s Long-Term Infrastructure Plan 2017. This plan responds to the changing needs of Ontario’s communities and sets forth a vision for Ontario's long- term infrastructure planning and delivery.

This plan outlines important policy commitments in areas that matter to Ontarians. In this era of accelerated technological change where internet connection is ever more critical to business and communities, we need to focus on improving access to broadband infrastructure and building resilient and substantive infrastructure.

Ontario is also integrating climate change considerations into infrastructure planning to ensure environmental sustainability as well as linking infrastructure investments to social policy initiatives such as community benefits projects and apprenticeships that support more jobs and training opportunities. To further advance community goals, the province’s commitment to a new Social Purpose Real Estate strategy will ensure the broader community need is taken into consideration in infrastructure planning and public property decision-making.

Finally, this plan summarizes Ontario’s first-ever Asset Inventory that includes a description of the condition, age and value of Ontario’s assets by sectors.

The Infrastructure for Jobs and Prosperity Act, 2015 mandates the Government of Ontario to develop a long-term infrastructure plan by May 2019. This plan represents an interim step towards meeting the full requirements of the act and demonstrates Ontario’s commitment to long-term, strategic, evidence-based public infrastructure planning and delivery.

As we work towards fulfilling the policy commitments outlined in the plan and meeting our legislative requirements, we welcome comments on this plan. It is being posted on the Environmental Registry for a period of 60 days, and can be accessed at www.ebr.gov.on.ca/.

Thank you for your interest and I look forward to engaging with you in the future to support Ontario’s infrastructure investments.

Sincerely,

Dear Head of Council:

As you know, the 2017 Ontario Budget proposed that single-tier and lower-tier municipalities be provided with the authority to implement a tax on transient accommodation, should they choose to do so. I am writing to inform you that the relevant legislative changes will come into force on December 1, 2017.

Under the legislation, it will be the choice of a municipality whether to implement a tax on transient accommodation. Should a municipality choose to implement a tax, it would have the flexibility to determine the design of the tax, including its rate(s), administration, collection and the scope of its application.

Regulations under the Municipal Act, 2001 and City of TorontoAct, 2006, set out rules for tax revenue sharing with eligible not-for-profit tourism organizations. These regulations will come into force on December 1,2017. Key matters addressed by the Municipal Act regulation include:

• Municipalities that choose to implement a tax on transient accommodation will be required to share revenues from the tax with eligible not-for-profit tourism organizations. • Where no Destination Marketing Program (DMP) existed prior to the imposition of the tax, the municipality will generally be required to share 50 per cent of transient accommodation tax revenues with one or more eligible not-for-profit tourism organizations chosen by the municipality. • Where a DMP existed in a municipality prior to the imposition of a transient accommodation tax, the municipality will generally be required to share an amount equal to the greater of: o the total amount of DMF revenues received by the eligible not-for-profit tourism organization under a DMP from accommodations in the municipality, in the fiscal year before the tax came into effect, and o the total sharing amount paid by the municipality to the eligible not-for• profit tourism organization in the previous year, adjusted by a 10-year rolling average of the annual percentage change in Ontario's total tourism receipts, as published by the Ministry of Tourism, Culture and Sport.

Ministry of Municipal Affairs re: Transient Accommodation Tax -2-

• Municipalities would need to ensure they share revenues pursuant to the rules set out in the regulations. Municipalities may retain any remaining tax proceeds for their own purposes. • The rules set out the amount of tax revenue sharing that must occur, but in no case do the regulations require municipalities to make payments to tourism organizations that exceed the tax revenue they collect in a particular year.

The provincial government recognizes the importance of helping municipalities invest in their communities. We also recognize the importance of promoting Ontario as a destination for tourism, and ensuring the vitality of Ontario's tourism sector. Therefore, the regulations balance the interests of the tourism and municipal sectors. To help ensure the tax is implemented in a way that benefits the municipality and the local tourism industry, we encourage both sectors to work together on this important issue.

The provincial government recognizes that municipalities are mature, accountable and responsible local governments. We have a strong record of supporting and working with the municipal sector and we look forward to continuing this partnership.

Sincerely,

Bill Mauro Minister
