RECOMMENDATION: That Council give second reading to By-Law 173-92, being a By-Law to change the Land Use Designation of PT of SW 28-49-7-W5M from Agricultural One to Country Residential Restricted. REPORT: In accordance with the Municipal District of Brazeau No 77 General Municipal Plan, the lands are classified as Better Agricultural Land with a CLI (Canada Land Inventory) rating of 3C. Being that the subject land is only 20 acres in area the balance of the quarter is a golf course, it could be argued 1 that the land is impractical for agriculture (both YRPC and Alberta Agriculture agree on this point). In accordance with the Municipal District of Brazeau No. 77 Land Use By-Law, Country Residential Restricted districts shall only be allowed where there is : i) Adequate accessibility to a registered public road (subject land adjacent TWP RD 494) ii) Proximity to existing school bus routes and school facilities (subject land adjacent TWP RD 494 & 1 mile from town limit) iii) Proximity to community facilities (1 mile from town limits) iv) Adequate separation from intensive livestock operations. No operation in area large enough to effect proposed subdivision. v) No substantial conflict with existing land uses. Non perceived - no objections lodged by adjacent landowners up to and including 92 10 05. The proposed development appearstosubstantially meet the outlined criteria. -3I DO-01-93 Page 2 In addition to these criteria, a sewage lagoon exists (golf course sewer lagoon) adjacent the west boundary of the p subject land. A 100 ft. setback from property line and 150 ft. from dwelling setback must be maintained. It would appear as though this can be achieved, however, further p review of the detailed subdivision proposal will confirm. Testing has been conducted regarding water table, aquifer and percolation and submitted to Alberta Environment for review. No response has been received to date. The Town of Drayton Valley, as does the Municipal District F of Brazeau No. 77 Development Officer, has no objection to I the proposal based on similar land uses being in the area. The lot was created by independent application in 1980 and p is an isolated parcel with limited practical agricultural [ capability. p The Development Officer does wish to point out that YRPC suggests that an Area Structure Plan or outline plan be prepared by the applicants. r Given the size ofthe lot, its proximity to the golf course, the * town's no objection, the fact that the development is proposed to be done in one phase rather than over 1, 2 or P more phases and that the requirements referred to by YRPC such as adequate road systems, servicing scheme, building design standards, can be effectively addressed through the IP subdivision process. As such, the Development Officer is recommending that only pi second reading be given to By-Law 173-92 at this time and final reading be postponed until such time as the Development Officer and Council are satisfied that YRPC's details along with the testing results have been addressed. This could coincide with Council's consideration ofthe actual subdivision application which is expected any time. pi r^i -•» DO-01-93 Page 3 REFERRAL RESPONSES Note: Responses are based on review of the proposed 1 change of Land use Classification not a detailed subdivision proposal ERCB No facilities in area that would impact subject land.

Box 77 1^1 Lr.;- 1; "^ Jill DRAYTON VALLEY, Alberta 11 Ju^r ^^T^?X3£J T0E0M0 UU „.****" we?- - -- Dear Dave: Subject: Proposed Re-designation of Part of SW28-49-7-W5M From Agricultural One (A-l) to Country Residential Restricted (CRR). I have reviewed the current M.D. #77 planning documents and done a site inspection of the subject land. Based on the review and inspection, I wish to make the following comments about the re-designation proposal. The subject land ( about 20 acres ) is located immediately adjacent to the golf course sewage lagoon and west of the boundary of the Airport Vicinity Protection Area (AVPA). The land is currently rated 3C according to the Canada Land Inventory (CLI) rating system. Although a large area of land with a 3C rating would qualify as "better agricultural land" according to the General Municipal Plan, it could be argued that the subject land would be impractical for agriculture mainly because of its size and thus should not be referred to as "better agricultural land". It should also be noted that a significant portion of the land has been covered with coarse gravel increasing the impracticality of it being farmed. Since residential developments near golf courses have achieved a great deal of popularity in the past few years, such a proposal on the subject land seems reasonable. There is an existing multi-lot residential development at the north end of the golf course. However, certain land-related issues need to be considered, for example: the mamtaining of the required setback from the private sewage lagoon (100 ft. from a property line, 150 ft. from a dwelling), ensuring that on-site servicing (water wells and sewer system) can be accommodated, and that impacts on adjacent landowners are niinimized (buffering, dust control etc.). ...2 P.O. Box 249 Onoway,Alberta, TOE 1VO, Telephone(403) 967 -2249 967-2204 ipl -35- -2- pi I would recommend that the following conditions/requirements be met prior to Council granting second and third reading to the re-designation proposal: 1) that the agricultural capability of the land and the practicality of fanning it be assessed by the District Agriculturist and if not found suitable or practical for agriculture or if, in the opinion of Council, it is determined that a better use can be made of the land such as the proposed residential use (or a recreational or public use), that; 2) an area structure plan (ASP) or outline plan be completed to the satisfaction of the Municipal District of Brazeau No. 77 and the Yellowhead Regional Planning Commission which plan is to include but not be limited to including an adequate road system, servicing scheme, and building design standards; 3) by means of data obtained from soil percolation and water table tests conducted in a manner consistent with Alberta Environment Guidelines, the developer should demonstrate, to the satisfaction of Alberta Environment, that groundwater of sufficient quantity and quality exists to supply the number of proposed lots within the subject land, and that soil conditions are suitable for on-site sewage disposal; 4) in light of the proposed Joint General Municipal Plan between the Town of Drayton Valley and the M.D. of Brazeau, that this proposal be reviewed and be given at least approval in principle by the Town ofDrayton Valley.

The Union Pacific Resources Property is listed For Sale at $189,000.00 with Venture Realty Inc. As discussed, I am aware that the M.D. could certainly utilize the storage yard, however the M.D. does not require the office building. I suggest that the M.D. consider the purchase of Lot 6 and the West half of Lot 5, as I have outlined on the attached Site Plan. Such a subdivision would allow the sale of the office building to another purchaser and would reduce the overall cost for the M.D. on the balance of the yard area. It would not be a difficult matter to call for an appraisal on the yard area the M.D. would be purchasing, but it can only be assumed that the appraised value would be substantially less than the asking price of $189,000.00 for the entire property. y questions or comments , please feel free to • Associate Broker Member i Rod Schultz, Manager\Agent.

I BACKGROUND: p> In the past we have tried a number of different methods in hiring out our legal I survey work. We have found that the most economical way has been to let a handful of small jobs accumulate and then tender them out together as a m package job. Different firms have approached us about doing our work and the ones capable of performing the work have been requested to complete a Contractor's P Agreement with us. These few firms are then contacted on an invitational basis L when tenders come out. Firms which have demonstrated a consistent lack of interest after getting on our bid list and have never obtained any of our work p are eventually taken off of the list Firms which have worked for us in the past i and have performed good work are kept on the list.

The Owner hereby agrees to indemnify the Municipality from any loss, costs, claims, expenses, i» actions or demands that may be made by any third parties by virtue of having an interest in the Lands without restricting the generality of the foregoing third parties shall include Lessees, Permittees, Purchasers and Mortgagees." The present clause is as follows: The Owner hereby agrees to indemnify and save harmless the Municipality of and from any loss, cost, claims, expenses, actions or demands arising out of the Municipality's acquisition of the Right of Way from the Owner pursuant to this agreement. Further, and without restricting the generality of the foregoing, the Owner specifically agrees to indemnify and save harmless the Municipality with respect to any costs, claims, expenses, actions, or demands made in respect to the compensation paid by the Municipality for the Right of Way." p D) That the Landscape Borrow Agreement be altered in the following fashion: "8.1 (a) in respect to the disturbed areas within the Right of Way and adjacent to the Landscape f Borrow operations, the sum of t , ™_ (* ) DOLLARS in lawful money of Canada per acre; and \ (b) in respect to the Landscape Borrow operations within the Right of Way, the sum of . ($ ) DOLLARS in lawful money of Canada per acre." is to be replaced with: "8.1 ...pursuant to this agreement shall be the sum of ($ ) DOLLARS in lawful money of Canada per acre." 1 -Mfe- - Page 3 - "9. ...to compensate the Owner in the amount set out in paragraph 8.1(a) hereof, and this shall be the only such payment made to the Owner by the Municipality." is to be replaced with: H "9. ...to compensate the Owner at the rate set out in paragraph 8.1 for the areas disturbed by the testing operations." BACKGROUND: n In 1991 the Municipal District adopted a Land Acquisition Policy. This Policy, among other purposes, set up a system whereby if an agreement is made « with a Landowner for an approved project and that agreement is one of the Municipalities standard documents, and is within set monetary limits (i.e. Schedule of Parameters) then the agreement may be approved by the Municipal Manager rather than having to go through Council. The Policy called for an H annual approval of successive "Schedule of Parameters" and of course as time I goes on, we expect to add to our inventory of approved agreements and alternate clauses as need be. The complete Policy and approved agreements <^ may be found in the Municipalities Policies and Procedures Manual. ) REPORT: 1 The Schedule of Land Agreement Parameters is the same as last year's with the exception that an addition has been made for purchases of Residential lots n and purchases of Commercial properties. ] In regards to the proposed alternate clauses (recommendation B) and C)), over <= the past year the Land Agent has noted a fairly common opposition to our present indemnification clause. The problem with it is, it seems to be too one ] sided especially where landowners have previously dealt with oil companies and the oil company typically indemnifies the landowner. The suggested 1 alternate clauses accommodates the concerns of both parties. The change to J the Landscape Borrow Agreement is just a matter of fixing up a design error previously made when all the Agreements were reviewed by our lawyers. We n are basically changing it such that there will only be one compensation rate rather than a split compensation. I believe a split compensation was mistakenly put in the Landscape Borrow Agreement because the Borrow Pit Agreement has _ a split compensation. DS/rm Enclosures c.c.

BACKGROUND: The Town of Drayton Valley approached the Municipal District of Brazeau No. 77 with a request to develop the road allowance, as previously described, for the. purposes of constructing an entrance sign. Written notice was served upon Gordon and Joanne Smith, the adjacent landowners, regarding the closure and sale together with publications of the intent being made in the Western Review. A By-law was drafted and presented to Council and a Public Hearing was held on April 9, 1992 at which time first and second readings were given. The adjacent landowner, Mr. Smith, raised an objection and provided the Municipal District with a letter to that effect. This letter was presented to Council for its' information on May 14, 1992. Mr. Smith indicated in his letter of objection that construction of a entrance sign at this time would be a waste of taxpayers monies as widening of Highway 22 by Alberta Transportation would then necessitate the removal and relocation of the sign. A copy of the proposed improvements to Highway 22 were then obtained from Alberta Transportation evidencing that this structure would not interfere with the widening of the Highway if and when such project would take place. The By-law together with the letter of objection was then submitted to Alberta Transportation for it's approval. The Minister's approval was obtained on October 14, 1992 subject to an Easement in favour of TransAlta Utilities Corporation. Attached is a copy of the correspondence received from Alberta Transportation in this regard. REPORT: As above noted, approval for this closure and sale has been granted by Alberta Transportation leaving to remain the third and final reading by Council. A copy 'W of the proposed Offer for Sale between the Town of Drayton Valley and the Municipal District of Brazeau No. 77 is also attached for Councils' consideration and approval thereof.

A By-law was drafted and presented to Council. A Public Hearing was held on April 9, 1992 at which time first and second readings were given. No objections from the adjacent landowners or from the general public to the closure and lease were received. Attached you will find a copy of a Report to Council, dated April 3, 1992, advising of an error within the legal description contained in the said By-law.

REPORT: <*.> At the April 9th, 1992 Council meeting, it became apparent that I made a mistake in the Notification process for the above captioned By-law. I notified the Owner of the NW 13-48-4-W5M when in fact I should have notified the Owner of the NW 11-48-4-W5M. The legal description on the Notice in the newspaper and in the By-law was correct therefore the mistake is isolated to the Notice to «• abutting/adjacent Owner. I I contacted Alberta Transportation's Property Services Department and enquired as to the implications of my error. I was directed to Section 180(2)(b)(i)(B) of the Municipal Government Act (see copy attached). So long as notification has taken place at least ' 14 days before the "passing", in other words 3rd reading, then the By-law will be o.k. I was instructed to resend the Notice, wait 14 days, and then send it to Transportation. ^ I have therefore sent out a notification to the Owner of "NW 11", a Mr. Willard ) Robinson, and will wait to see the result before sending the By-law off to Transportation. The other issue that was raised at the April 9th Council meeting was a disagreement 1 as to the definition of "Adjacent Owners who should be notified". The Act clearly states that Notice is to be given to "persons assessed as or registered as the Owner of Notification to ^rma'vTolaWestimg, Evan and* Michaelanne Blumahagen, and Melvin j and Rita Gent. Please see letters attached. If Mr. Robinson desires to speak to Council, or if anyone comes forward with an j object, I will be sure and let you know. DS/rm Ay| ^^^ WSJ\ Enclosures ' \^^A^ J c.c.

My comments are indexed to the pages and paragraphs of the original report. The intent is to clarify or add and not to criticise. m Synopsis: Acommittee was stuck by the AAMD&C for the study of Strategic Management of 1 Agricultural issues as a result of a resolution passed at the 1991 Fall Convention. > The committee consisted of members from the AAMD&C executive and the Reeves' Association. Unifarm and PFRA were represented by voluntary advisory members. ^ The Committee recognized that strategic planning would be beneficial in addressing two problem areas. The first area was the general state of m agriculture, including declining farm population, inadequate farm receipts and high input costs. Expanded and stabilized rural economics and better understanding of agricultural management by non-farm people were proposed as potential solutions. The second area was that of education and environment. A general misunderstanding, fuelled by a lack of information and misinformation, is leading the urban public to conclude that farming is not environmentally friendly or sustainable. An added problem were misconceptions held by the public and private sectors regarding the skills and costs associated with farm operations. The need for education focused at all aspects of society was stressed to address these concerns. To address these two broad areas the Committee came up with recommendations based upon strengthening or building the Rural Economy and increased Education and Awareness. Other topics addressed briefly were the Crow Benefit, a rural water supply strategy and finally government support and taxation issues. Comments: i Pg. 4 para. 3 There are areas where the full effect of pure predatory price policies is not felt, ] such as boards or organization (dairy and egg producers), other areas such as wheat are not sheltered to any extent. The effect hinges on the balance of the «, domestic verse export market share. With Canada principally an exporter of agricultural products, the international market level sets the price for the Canadian farmers in many commodities. Although these policies do exist in some countries, the impact can be questioned and usually occurs in commodities where ^ others have an advantage, ie. climate or lower input costs. The major problem at present with international sales is the high subsidy rates of our competitors which distorts prices by increasing supply levels. ""< P55I -103- m A second effect is that the Canadian consumer does not place additional value in } the Canadian verses imported products. The cheap food concept comes to mind and although there is no cheap food policy in Canada, the perception and r expectations exist. This down ward pressure on prices reflects in lower farm returns. An example is the bread issue in the report, where the farm receipt is $0.04 for the wheat in a $1.39 loaf of bread (value added industry benefit). This highlites the importance of agriculture to the value added economy. W\ i { Section : Rural Economic Development. Pg 7-11 p General Comments. While farming and a healthy rural economy are linked, I feel that the focus on the rural community is greater in this section than on the points to address the I agriculture strategy. Rather than attempting to stimulate all aspects of the rural i economy, focusing on services with direct impact on agriculture should be addressed. The type of business is more important than the existence of a r business. The problems which face all rural communities is competition with the larger centres. This aspect, how to keep the rural dollars in the rural community, or how to keep the local merchants and suppliers competitive with IP distributers in the larger centres is not identified in the report. ^ Areas for Further Consideration: f P 9 Subsection a). The overall text has some good points and I do not think that you will find any m\ debate regarding the points made. Development of new markets and products is { essential for strenghtening of agricultural and rural economies. Many factors must be considered in the development of these new areas and we must ensure m that we address some basic questions such as: u- a) What level of technology is required? b) Who is responsible for ensuring that technology transfer rismade to those who need it? c) Is the technology affordable? d) What funding schemes are available for capital changes? re)Is the item subject to a stable and predicable demand or is it cyclical in nature? f) Who would fund and carry out the study to determine which product are best suited? p 1 P 10 subsection b). P The question is who will do what and where would capital dollars come from to | seed the development. The problem which is not addressed is how the manufacturing would be enticed to enter the rural areas. The additional costs p, for transport and distribution of raw material and finished products are typically j what keeps the industries in Urban areas. Would it be up to local, provincial L or federal bodies to entice the operations into existence? -IDH- i p 10 Subsections c) and d). This is all ready occurring with in our municipality with the Group 2000. The * stumbling blocks are the logistics and philosophical differences in the types of rural governments. Although the basic premise is good the cooperation and trust ^ needed to make this system work will take time to grow. p 10 and 11 Subsection e). At present I do not believe that we will find legislation and/or bylaws which restrict rural entrepreneurs. Those identified, such as regional plans and municipal plans, are in place to protect the agricultural land base not stop development from occurring. I feel that this is a valid and important limitation placed upon land. Since we only have a finite supply of better agricultural land it seems strange to lose the better land from agricultural production to stimulate ^ commercial development to stimulate agricultural production on lower class agricultural land. Planned and orderly development does not have to segregate development from agricultural. On-farm subsidiary development is allow under our municipal plan and the regional plan. Since manufacturing in a rural area requires different services, is it not better to group the developments thus minimizing the costs 1 of the services? Section: Education and Awareness P. 12-17 **> General Comments. ITS! Although the framework for inclusion of agriculture into the school curriculum ! exists and the information is available to educators the resources are not being J utilized to there potential. The problem appears to be a lack of voluntary participation. The Service Board has forwarded information to the School Division tf™j? about the Ag. Ambassador Program and with copies of two recently developed conservation based modules but to my knowledge they have not been utilized. The ASB sponsors a student to REDA (Rural Education Development Association) for leadership training at a summer camp. During Agriculture Week the members of the Service Board and our Agriculture Staff make 6 to 10 presentations to local grade four classes. The area which is not being fully addressed is the urban education. As no i Service Boards exist, some method of ensuring the basic information gets across must be developed. I am concerned with the monetary and time commitment needed to address the situation. The focus based upon the economics of agriculture should be targeted to the return to the farmer verses the prices paid by the consumer. This would serve as a multistage approach to allow the general public to understand the cost associated with food production, the processing industry and the actual income level of agricultural producers. i 1 Wi —io5— Environmental Issue: General Comments p The report lays out some good information regarding environmental realities. The Farmer Pesticide Certification Program is a good example of the lead role being taken. The major hurdle which will have to be over come is the misinformation which now exists regarding pesticides and animal welfare. The food safety issue should also be addressed. The environmental responsibility issue could be handled with the expansion of the statements in the report. General Comments p 16 and 17 Securing private funding to assist in the development and delivery of programs has potential. One problem would be the screening of potential presentation information and consolidation into presentation packages. This operation should not rest with private industry as it could be perceived as promotion to sell products. The information must be quasi-generic so as to be ineducable to any company or group participating. The use of agricultural organizations would be a good way to pass along some information to discount concerns regarding agriculture in general. The dispelling of some of the half truths and innuendoes should not be done by these groups. Sponsoring applied research to clarify specific concerns (ie pesticides, methane production etc.) should take place with the information then placed before the general public and scientific communities. This will take more technically based people, but again where the funding would be available from is uncertain. r Section: Specific Agricultural Issues P 18 - 23 General Comments Subsection: Crow Benefit rThis Item has been the subject of several complete documents and a full review is beyond the scope of this report. The item will not be solved simply and will resurface in the near future. The option presented has both merits and p drawbacks. The additional funding for Municipalities for road maintenance if rail lines are abandoned does allow for some discussion, but with demands for down sizing and recent trends with grants, I do not think that this is a viable alternative. pi I Subsection: A Rural Water Supply Strategy P Many of the concerns raised in this section may be addressed through one or I more of the following. The rewrite of the Water Resources Act, the Federal Green Plan and the new CAESA (Canada Alberta agreement on Environmentally p Sustainable Agriculture) programs. The key issue appears to be what is an agricultural use verses an industrial or commercial use. A second point is should 1 there be a hierarchial system with in agricultural uses (ie. should field irrigation be place before stock water etc). -|Dfe>- Subsection: Government Support and Taxation Issues As with any discussion regarding governments and taxation there are some items which are controversial. The varied approaches through out the provence on how taxation levels are arrived at can lead to some confusion between areas as to how priorities should be set. I agree with the comments regard more responsibility in requisitions, but at the same time would not support the reports suggestion to assign funding of services. The move by the provincial and federal governments toward net income or farm operation support is positive. These types of support rather than specific item issues (farm fuel etc) look at the overall operation for the year rather that consumption of targeted commodities. The broad base also allows for a single type of program to serve a greater number of farmers. This does not remove the need for other assistance programs as the broad base programs do not allow for the exceptions such as disasters. Summary: Overall the report does bring forward some very pertinent points for consideration but falls short in offering options for the implementation of any of "j the suggestions. The next step would be to address the specifics and investigate I whether some of these items are presently addressed or partially addressed through existing programs. Modifications to some existing programs may help to reach the ends which the report contains. i BACKGROUND m During the 1991 Fall Convention of the Alberta Association of r Municipal Districts and Counties* delegates from Alberta's 53 incorporated rural municipalities passed the following i resolution* sponsored by the County of Warner No. 5: p RESOLUTION NO. 1 I AGRICULTURE STRATEGY "Whereas the current federal government's strategy for r agriculture appears to be unable to address both the current problems of agriculture* as shown in the continued reduction of incone and stability for pi farmers; and i Whereas the agricultural industry in Alberta needs a national policy which will recognize the current j economic problems and address same* and will provide direction for all levels of government» as well as the members of the agricultural industry for the future P stabilization and development of the industry as a [ staple of Canadian economy; p Therefore be it resolved that the Alberta Association j of Municipal Districts and Counties pursue with the L provincial government, in cooperation with the federal government* the creation and approval of an f agricultural strategy which will recognize the [ financial conditions of today and establish a process which will enhance and support a stable and p progressive development of the industry for tomorrow." As a result of this resolution* the AANDSC Executive* working in conjunction with the Reeves* Association* struck the AAND&C Agricultural Strategy Committee in early 1992. This Committee* whose membership was drawn from the AAND&C Executive and Reeves from each AAND&C district, consisted of the following individuals: -JOB- -2- Gordon Miller, President, AAND&C Dick Papworth, Vice President, AAND&C « Vincent Fabian* AAND&C Director, District One Linda Walton* AAND&C Director, District Two Jean DeChamplain, AAND&C Director, District Three Lavern Sorgaard, AAND&C Director, District Four m Narvin Dahl, Reeve, County of Warner No. 5 Ray Bolton, Reeve, County of Leduc No. 25 Larry Konschuk, Reeve, M.D. of Rocky View No. 44 ^ Walter Doll, Reeve, M.D. of Fairview No. 136 j The Committee also benefited from the wisdom and experience of four individuals from external organizations, who volunteered their time to assist the Committee as advisory members. Unifarm j President Hartmann Nagel, Unifarm Executive Director Wilf Plosz, Unifarm Research Economist Elmer Allen, and Reg Adam, Director of Alberta Affairs for the Prairie Farm Rehabilitation i Administration (PFRA), all made significant contributions to the Committee's discussions, and their assistance is greatly appreciated. The Committee held five meetings in 1992, to discuss the many i issues facing the agricultural community, and to develop specific recommendations for ensuring a strong and stable agricultural industry now and in the years to come. 1 The following report represents the culmination of the <"j Committee's efforts to date, and is submitted for the consideration of the delegates to the 1992 AAND&C Fall H Convention. -IJtf- -3- INTRODUCTION Food and water represent the two most important elements in humanity's struggle for progress, and indeed for survival. The ability to provide adequate quantities of these commodities for all citizens has been the defining characteristic of all successful cultures throughout history, and this remains just as r true in the late 20th Century as it was in the distant past. The obvious necessity of stable and secure food supplies has ensured the agricultural industry a key role in shaping the pi development of human society. Each innovation in animal and/or crop husbandry has increased the ability of society to feed its citizens, often with ever fewer numbers of citizens actually engaged in the production of that food. By accepting the responsibility to provide food for other citizens who no longer pi actually produce their own food, the small agricultural community has allowed these other citizens to focus on other » pursuits, such as science, medicine, commerce, literature and leisure. Thus, virtually all human progress, whether technologically, socially or intellectually, owes a large debt r to the agricultural innovations of the past and present. Agriculture has also made a major economic impact on the lives of all Canadians* acting as the backbone of this nation's economy ("5 -IID -4- for well over a century. Throughout our history, the agricultural sector has continued to produce food for Canada and the world, and has consistently made a major contribution to our nation's balance of trade. During times of recession and even depression, the agricultural industry has been the key to i rejuvenation, sparking activity in other economic sectors and eventually pulling the national economy into recovery. Even now, in the modern "information age", the agri-food industry continues to account for some 10% of Canada's Gross Domestic Product, employing almost 15% of working Canadians. When the important "rollover effect" of agricultural activity is taken into account, the true impact of the industry is much higher. For example, in Alberta it is estimated that approximately one-third of all jobs in the province are directly or indirectly dependent on the agricultural sector. Despite the crucial nature of agriculture in stabilizing and strengthening the overall economy, the industry now faces very serious difficulties. Years of artificially reduced commodity j prices, due to the predatory policies of other trading nations, have left many segments of the agricultural industry significantly weakened and vulnerable. Recent unstable weather patterns have further damaged the viability of many agricultural 1 enterprises. PI -III- -5- Agriculture also suffers from a growing lack of understanding of agricultural issues and practices on the part of most Canadian citizens. Canadians no longer appreciate the importance of a stable and secure domestic food supply, and consumer demand for "cheap food" has completely ignored the actual production costs Pi of Canada's high quality agricultural and food production industries. This inability of many Canadians to recognize the long term benefit of a strong, profitable agricultural industry poses a serious threat to the industry's future prospects. The agricultural industry in Alberta is not immune to any of the P challenges facing Canadian agriculture. Changing economic pi conditions and changing public values pose problems here in Alberta as in any other region, and any Agricultural Strategy must focus on addressing these key challenges if the farming community is to regain its strength and dynamism. p Pi -ua — -6- A TWO PRONGED STRATEGY FOR RECOVERY (^BJfj 1 In general terms, the problem facing the agricultural sector is one of inadequate returns. Low commodity prices and the increasing cost of agricultural inputs, among other factors, have made it impossible for many farmers to generate sufficient income from their agricultural operations to survive without 1 significant government support. In searching for solutions to this situation, the Committee recognized that farm returns are influenced by a great many factors, and that properly analyzing each of these factors would require the Committee to address, in detail, a massive number of complex and diverse agricultural issues. Such an endeavour was simply not possible given the Committee's time and technical constraints. Instead, the Committee has focused its attention on a small number of very broad concerns, in the hope that resolving these major issues will have positive implications for the more specific individual issues existing in the agricultural industry. In particular, the Committee has identified two key initiatives S which should form the basis of a new Agricultural Strategy for Alberta: r -n^" -7- 1. Rural Economic Development r The health of the rural economy and that of the agricultural industry have always been inextricably inter-related. Just as improving the returns to primary agriculture is critical to efforts to strengthen the rural economy, it is also true that diversifying and strengthening the rural economy is necessary in order to revitalize the agricultural industry. The importance of this symbiotic relationship has grown in recent years, as both the agricultural industry and rural communities have faced increasingly difficult economic circumstances. As technological advances have made it possible for individuals to productively farm ever larger areas of land, and as the need ip for increased efficiency in response to increasing and often unfair international competition has grown, the population of the farming community in Alberta and the rest of Canada has steadily declined (PFRA figures indicate a decrease of over 50% IP in the on-farm population since 1941). This drop in the farming population has served to weaken many rural communities, by reducing the number of potential customers for local businesses, decreasing the number of students in rural schools, and causing a host of other negative impacts. -114- -8- At the same time, weakened rural communities can lead to a weakened agricultural industry. The farming community relies on healthy, stable local communities for access to various business services, tools and equipment, as well as educational, recreational and other government services. Perhaps more importantly, the farm community also relies on strong local economies to provide sources of off-farm income, to supplement 1 often uncertain and inadequate income from farming operations. Although reliance on off-farm income may conflict with the traditional vision of the ideal farmer, off-farm income has nonetheless become a key element in ensuring the survival and i even progression toward viability of many farm enterprises. PFRA figures indicate that off-farm income now accounts for almost 50% of total income for the average farm family, up from I only 10% in 1941. Without this income from jobs provided by local businesses, many farms would simply be unable to survive. Therefore, the Committee believes that efforts to strengthen the agricultural industry must take a broader focus, by emphasizing the need to strengthen the rural economy as a whole. i -115- -9- There are many actions which could be taken to strengthen local rural economies, and a number of these have been documented by 'Pi the Government of Alberta through the process of designing the Local Development Initiative (LDI). The Committee recognizes the many positive ideas which are contained in the LDI, and eagerly awaits implementation of those programs. In addition, the Committee has identified a number of other areas which merit further consideration: r a) Greater focus on marketing, and research and development fpl activities, along with an improved coordination of these F5 efforts, is urgently required in order to enable Alberta ipi to take advantage of existing and future opportunities in domestic and international markets. For example, ^ increased cooperation and coordination between Alberta Agriculture and Alberta Economic Development and Trade is necessary in order to develop new markets for existing and potential Alberta products, while further effort must be devoted to instilling greater market skills amongst r Alberta's rural citizenry. As well, the Alberta Research Council's expertise should be better utilized in seeking to develop new value-added opportunities for Alberta's agricultural commodities. -l/k- -10- b) Investigations should be undertaken to determine which tw products are expensive and/or difficult to obtain in Alberta. An opportunity may exist for these products to be manufactured in Alberta's rural communities. The first area of focus for this investigation should likely relate to farm implements and parts, and other agricultural inputs, however in the long run the Committee believes that virtually any product could be competitively produced in rural manufacturing facilities. T c) Rural communities must become more aware of the tremendous strengths which they possess, and develop J effective strategies for making industry aware of these ^ qualities. In particular, the farming population offers a flexible, skilled work force which is capable of fulfilling the needs of a wide variety of industrial and manufacturing enterprises. d) Rural communities must increase efforts to cooperate with neighbouring communities, taking advantage of regional strengths and overcoming any perceived local weaknesses. e) Federal, provincial and local government legislation and policies must be examined to ensure that they do not act to restrict entrepreneurial opportunity in rural areas. -111 -11- For example, current land use restrictions often act to discourage industrial and/or commercial development in rural areas, funneling this activity to urban centres instead. In particular, concerns have been expressed 'B regarding the role of some Regional Planning Commissions in discouraging rural economic growth. IP In summary, the Committee believes that a strong agricultural sector requires a strong rural economy, and that efforts to strengthen agriculture must therefore be focused through an overall Rural Development Strategy. p The Committee does not intend to suggest that specific assistance for agriculture is unnecessary or undesirable. Indeed, the Committee continues to believe that a strong agricultural sector is the key to the overall rural economy. However, agriculture can no longer be viewed in isolation from the broader rural economy. In the long run, it is a strong and diverse rural economy which will provide the most effective '51 assistance to our farming population. -»6 -12- 2. Education and Awareness The second key element for an effective agricultural strategy must be a comprehensive and coordinated campaign to educate all Albertans as to the fundamental importance of the agricultural industry, and as to the realities which face the industry now (3 and in the future. In this age of instant information, urbanization, and constant technological innovation* a growing proportion of citizens have little or no understanding of farming or the farming community. In a society obsessed by consumerism and blessed with virtually unparalleled wealth* abundant supplies of relatively low-cost food are now taken for granted* with no consideration given to the crucial role played by the farming community in providing that food. C^ Canadians are remarkably fortunate with respect to the quality 1» and variety of food they consume, yet they currently spend only 11.5% of disposable income on food* a ratio which is the second lowest in the industrialized world. At the same time* Canada's farmers receive only a small share of this consumer spending. For example, a loaf of bread currently sells for about $1.39, yet the farmer receives only four cents for the wheat which is 1 used to bake the bread. -13- -II? Remarkably, the farmer's already small share of food prices is shrinking steadily. From 1983 to 1990, beef prices increased by 25%, yet the price paid to the farmer rose by only 9%. The average price of a box of breakfast cereal increased by 192%, •pi yet the price paid to the farmer for the grains used to produce the cereal rose by only 6.2%. This trend is repeated for virtually every consumer food product, yet most Canadians mistakenly believe that the agricultural community is to blame for perceived "high food prices". Further, they fail to understand the damage which this situation is causing to the agricultural industry, and the economy of the nation as a whole. Having never known true hunger, Canadian citizens have become complacent with respect to food supplies, and are unable to appreciate the benefits of a secure, stable and high quality domestic agricultural industry. This lack of understanding and. appreciation represents the greatest long-term threat facing Canadian farmers. Battered by artificially low commodity prices and the predatory policies of international competitors, Canada's agricultural community needs continued support from federal and provincial governments in order to survive. Yet Canadian taxpayers, unaware of the threat to their own future well-being, are becoming increasingly 'iH reluctant to provide the necessary assistance. pt -iao -14- Somehow, Canadians must be educated as to the true value of a healthy domestic agricultural industry, and as to the nature of the challenges facing that industry. 1 This need has been recognized in recent years, and a number of initiatives are underway in an attempt to address this issue. The Agriculture Education Network, which includes representation from the AAND&C, the Alberta Government, and a number of other stakeholder groups, is one major initiative which holds great promise for beginning this education process. Other worthy 1 programs include the Classroom Agriculture Project, sponsored by a number of agricultural commodity and interest groups, the Summer Agricultural Education Institute, and its offshoot, the ^n^3 Agricultural Ambassador program. Each of these initiatives is making an important contribution toward a new and more profound awareness of the value of agriculture. Most of these program are targeted at the classroom, working to develop the necessary awareness in the next generation by educating both students and teachers as to agriculture's G&&(' importance. The Committee supports this approach, recognizing that the classroom is indeed the most important forum for these activities. *^\ Hsl -iai- -15- r However, the Committee also believes that education and awareness programs must reach beyond the classroom, to touch virtually all Albertans. In particular, certain groups with great potential to influence future agricultural policy, such as members of the media, and civil servants, must be educated as to the realities of the agricultural sector. pi The economics of agriculture must be the primary focus of this campaign, but another subject requiring comprehensive treatment is the inter-relation between agriculture and the environment. In recent years, the agricultural industry has come under increasing scrutiny for its environmental impact, and has often been wrongfully implicated as a threat to natural ecosystems. 'Pi In fact, agriculture is among the most environmentally responsible of industries, a status which should be clear to p> anyone with a reasonable understanding of the industry. Farmers rely on the continued productivity of the land for their well-being, and therefore have a clear interest in ensuring that w no meaningful damage is done to that land or its water sources. As well, it should be noted that farmers live on the site of their economic activity, and certainly would have no desire to create any environmental or health hazard, which would therefore directly threaten their own health and that of their family and it* neighbours. \»- -16- 1 Getting this message out to the public, the media, and government regulators must be a priority for any agricultural awareness campaign. However, there is also a need to increase efforts to educate the farming community itself, with respect to 1 the importance of continuing to operate in a clearly responsible fashion, and being seen to do so. This is necessary not only to avoid future environmental damage, but also to ensure that the 1 "environmental fringe" is not provided with any "ammunition" to assist in their efforts to place stringent, unreasonable restrictions on the agricultural sector. Undertaking this sort of broad education and awareness campaign will require a significant commitment of financial resources. I Written and visual resources must be developed and distributed, and qualified individuals must be engaged to make personal visits to classrooms, government and media offices, to discuss these materials and clarify any areas of misunderstanding. Given the current financial restrictions facing governments, the 1 Committee recognizes that private sector funding may be needed 1 in order to fund at least part of the costs of this initiative. A large number of business enterprises make a substantial portion of their earnings due to Alberta's agricultural industry, and the Committee recommends that these firms be 1 approached as potential sponsors of the program. Processors, 1 -)&- -17- transportation firms, equipment manufacturers, fuel distributors, and others all depend to varying degrees on the agricultural industry for their continued success, and should be willing to invest in the future of that industry. 'St The Committee also recognizes that Alberta's farm organizations are ideally positioned to play a lead role in efforts to increase agricultural awareness, and indeed have done so in the past. The Committee recommends that the capabilities of these groups be recognized and supported, and that partnerships between these organizations, government and the private sector be encouraged in order to better coordinate the development and delivery of the education/awareness campaign. It is the Committee's firm belief that the implementation of this comprehensive agricultural awareness campaign, educating all Albertans as to the positive role which agriculture can and should play in the provincial economy, is a necessary element of any Agricultural Strategy. Improved public awareness of agricultural issues, combined with strengthened and diversified local rural economies, represents the key to restoring the health of Alberta's agricultural industry. •p / -1*4- -18- SPECIFIC AGRICULTURAL ISSUES While the Committee is convinced that the successful implementation of its two priority recommendations should be the focus of efforts to revitalize the agricultural sector, a number of other, more specific issues also require attention. 1 1. The Crow Benefit The issue of the method of payment of the so-called "Crow Benefit" has been a matter of controversy in Alberta and western &$• Canada for decades. This issue is central to virtually every other debate with respect to the railway transportation system, tSy' and must be resolved in order to address the necessary improvements in system performance. The Committee supports the option of paying out the Crow Benefit via a bond, similar to the Government of Alberta's Freedom to Choose proposal. However, the Committee recommends that the value of the bond should be attached to each eligible parcel of property for so long as that property remains usable for agricultural production, thus ensuring that the $720 million value of the Benefit is not immediately removed from the agricultural sector. 'p?\ -ia5^ -19- In addition, the Committee's recommendation is contingent upon agreement that municipalities must be compensated for any r additional road maintenance costs due to rail line abandonment. 2. A Rural Water Supply Strategy The Committee urges the Alberta Government, in conjunction with appropriate federal agencies, to immediately undertake the development of a comprehensive and effective Rural Water Supply P?> Strategy. Many regions of Alberta have suffered from severe drought in recent years, resulting in significant costs to local producers and to the local economy. As well, significant costs are often incurred on behalf of provincial and federal taxpayers, where emergency assistance programs are required to support •pi drought-stricken areas. Currently, limited funding is available to assist in providing stable, long-term water supplies to communities and groups of farmers. However, many water assistance programs appear more focused on short-term remedies such as water hauling and pumping subsidies. Programs to assist with dugout construction and well-drilling are also available, but sometimes these too can provide only short-term relief. nab -20- The Committee recommends that, while some short-term assistance should be retained in order to address specific drought situations as they occur, there is a pressing need to re-orient government policy to focus more clearly on addressing the need for long-term secure water supplies. Investigative groundwater mapping activities should be undertaken in those areas with identifiable or potential water supply problems, and funding should be made available to assist in pipeline projects to ensure secure water supplies for groups of farmers. Also with respect to water supply, the Committee urges the Government of Alberta to continue to recognize the importance of ensuring priority water rights to the agricultural industry. The ongoing review of the Water Resources Act has provided an opportunity for some individuals to suggest that rural and agricultural water use should be curtailed or reduced in priority, or subject to some sort of withdrawal charge. The 1 Committee strongly rejects these proposals, and stresses the critical importance of recognizing as key priorities the provision of potable water for rural citizens and adequate supplies of water for food production purposes. Any move to reduce agriculture's access to water sources will have a profound negative effect on rural economies, and eventually the provincial economy as a whole. I -iai -21- 3. Government Support and Taxation Issues The Committee recognizes that the current financial limitations facing the federal and provincial governments place significant restrictions on the ability of these governments to continue current levels of assistance. However, the Committee also believes that continued government support for the agricultural sector is both necessary and justified, given the very difficult situation facing the •p> industry in international markets, and given the fundamental importance of the agricultural industry to the overall provincial and national economies. Implementation of the broad education and awareness campaign as recommended by the Committee should generate the required public support to allow governments to continue to provide necessary levels of assistance to the farming community. •p> > Government support programs should remain participatory (ie. in the form of tripartite agreements), to ensure that programs remain responsive to the needs of the farming community. The NISA style of program, geared to overall farm income, is viewed as superior to the GRIP format, where benefits are based on r commodity specific criterion. -1*6 -22- f^5> As well, it must be recognized that these sorts of programs are not capable of addressing crisis situations. Indeed, GRIP actually penalizes those farmers who have suffered from lower yields due to "natural disasters", by reducing program benefits. Agriculture policy must retain the flexibility to implement so-called "third line of defence" programs, such as emergency deficiency payments, in instances of extreme difficulty. The Committee also believes that efforts to assist agriculture must focus more clearly on the goal of controlling agricultural input costs. Thus, the practice of taxing certain of these ': inputs, such as fuel, must be reconsidered, as such taxes merely serve to reduce the competitiveness of the farming community. Local property taxes are also an important "input cost" for farmers, and must be controlled to the greatest extent possible. This will involve a continued commitment to efficiency and restraint on the part of local municipal governments, but also on the part of local education authorities. Education costs continue to increase at alarming rates, creating growing and eft unacceptable burdens on local ratepayers, and acting as a significant deterrent to further economic activity in many rural areas. This trend in education costs has clearly indicated the need to resolve in a meaningful way the question of exactly which services should be funded through property tax revenue. r -pfl- -23- Local tax levels are also affected by federal and provincial policies. Decisions by these governments to reduce grants or services, or to impose new standards or responsibilities without corresponding funding, place increased strain on municipal budgets, and lead to local tax increases and/or service reductions. Senior governments must increase their sensitivity to the local impact of their policies, and ensure that regulatory and restructuring decisions do not cause reduced competitiveness due to increasing local taxes. 'Wt -130- -24- tf^a C0NCLUSI0N Agriculture remains a key contributor to the economic and social well-being of all Albertans, both as an important contributor to overall provincial wealth, and as a reliable source of safe, high quality food. These are facts which must be drawn to the attention of all citizens more clearly and forcefully in the months and years to come. 1 As well, farmers themselves must regain a positive, optimistic outlook on the future of their own operations and the industry fw$ as a whole. Although there are many challenges to be overcome, they are not insurmountable, and the enthusiasm and energy of 1 the farming community will be a determining factor in how successfully those challenges can be met. A healthy dose of positive thinking, tempered by a practical recognition of current and future agricultural realities, will enable most 1 farmers to take advantage of the opportunities which may arise in the years ahead* At the same time, policymakers and rural citizens alike must recognize that agriculture is no longer the sole driving force behind the rural- economy, and indeed depends on the overall strength of local economies for its .own health. 1 1 jpl -\5l- -25- Therefore, efforts to stabilize and revitalize the agricultural sector must be broad-based and forward-thinking, looking to the overall development of the local economy, even when not clearly and directly related to agricultural production. Stable communities and local economies will provide the agricultural industry with much of the support it requires to remain a viable and important contributor to the Alberta economy. •in However, continued provincial and federal support programs for agriculture will remain crucial, particularly in light of the current international trading situation. Programs must be designed so as to maximize responsiveness to the needs of the agricultural sector, and must retain the flexibility to respond effectively to major economic and natural "disasters". Above all, our society must recognize the critical importance of food production activities to the economic and social well-being of our province, and our nation. A clear understanding of agriculture's role in the national economy, and of the realities which face the industry in the 1990's, must be instilled in our policy makers, our educators, our young people, and the public at large if the agricultural industry is to remain a vibrant and productive contributor to Canadian well-being in the years to come. •pi -rsfl- -26- In the words of the early 20th Century American politician William Jennings Bryant "Burn down your cities and leave our farms, and your cities will spring up again as if by magic, but destroy our farms and the grass will grow in the streets of every city in the country." -133- 1992 AAMD&C 84th ANNUAL CONVENTION NOTES {p •§!> -!3Mr ALBERTA MUNICIPAL AFFAIRS Office oftheMinister Minister responsible forNativeAffairs i December 7,1992 1 Mayors & Reeves: At the recent fall conventions of the Alberta Urban Municipalities Association and the Alberta Association of Municipal Districts and Counties, I stated that without aclear indication of support from Councils I will not proceed ^ with the provisions of the proposed Property Assessment Act to change the J valuation standard to market value.

Edmonton, Alberta T5K 1E4 !Dear Mr. Bogle; Re; Dravton Valley / Devon Provincial Boundaries The Drayton Valley and District Chamber of Commerce wishes to refute the decision on provincial electoral boundaries. The boundaries proposed by the Select Special Committee impacts our w^ region, negatively in the following ways: In the distribution of constituencies and determining their boundaries. Trade populations should be considered,.as well as north/south transportation and communication lines. The proposed northern boundary severs our region's, businesses and community residents from our core municipality of Drayton Valley. These residents.commute and contribute to our municipality in a number of ways. Our provincial constituency already is 16% below the average population distribution, adding in the northern, portion as we propose will equalize our region properly. Our region already struggles under a variety of non co-terminus boundaries; our ambulance region, health unit, hospital, area schools and tourism zones are all separate boundaries, in addition to several municipal boundaries. We already experience being on the most easterly tip of the Yellowhead Federal Riding and the westerly boundary of the Wetaskiwin Federal Riding. The situation is confusing, to say the least, for our region's residents and inhibits proper access to elected officials by the electorate. In the Chamber's opinion the eastern boundary changing impacts us far less than the change in our northern boundary. As stated previously, a number of residents work in and contribute to our community. Their children are educated; in our schools, they access our facilities and they are part of our trading region. The north/south trade region is stronger and larger than residents community east of Breton. • -13&- Another factor is the ability for members of the Legislative Assembly to full discharge their duties to their constituents. Our MLA, Tom Thurber, has a constituency office located in Drayton Valley and frequently attends Town and M.D. events. For our region's northern residents to be forced to drive one hour or phone long distance to access their new MLA in Stony Plan is unreasonable and it does not provide free access for the electorate. The Select Special Committee should consider more than just population but our community interests as a factor in re-distribution of a constituency. It is our understanding the new boundary was selected to 1^^ accommodate the northern M.D. boundary line. In 1988 the new M.D. of Brazeau #77 was formed. The northern district line is ten miles from our largest town in the M.D.; the Town of Drayton Valley. A number of residents from the Tomahawk, Moon Lake region commute into the M.D. and town to work, provide and consume services, to educate their children and take advantage of our existing infrastructure. The residents of the. County of Parkland do not contribute to our tax base. We willingly'welcome their presence and know this practice will continue, yet there is a financial inequity for our Municipal District taxpayers. On more than one occasion it has been brought to our attention the northern region's residents (north of the district line) experience difficulty marketing their homes. Once past the ten mile mark their residences are in the County of Parkland. Economic obsolescence occurs, their properties are considered too far from Stony Plain to easily commute and community buyers consider the prbperty outside the Municipal District. i We believe if the M.D.'s northern boundary was extended another fifteen miles to our trade region's outer edge, a number of these issues would be satisfactorily resolved. The Town-of Drayton Valley, the M.D. of Brazeau and several other local governing officials are actively working at strengthening our region as a whole, boundaries aside. One more boundary in the middle would be another fracture in our community that we must contend with. Our comments are submitted for your consideration as we are aware the electoral hearings are complete. This decision impacts our region so greatly it was necessary to respond prior to the January 1993 decision. Please include our Chamber of Commerce on your mailing list for any future decisions on this issue. We need effective, balanced access to our MLA as it is our communities link to the Province and the legislature. We look forward to your response.

Local Boards of Health throughout Alberta with the assistance of Alberta Health and Alberta Environment. 3. Why is the review necessary? The technical, scientific and public policy issues associated with municipal waste have grown significantly in the past few years. Asa consequence, there has been a call for greater precision and clarity in the Waste Management Regulation under the Public Health Act whose primary purpose is to protect public health through the control of environmental factors. 4. How will the review be carried out? To assist in the review process, the Minister of Health has approved the formation of anexternal AdvisoryCommittee chaired bytheAssistant Deputy jpi) Minister, Public Health Division and consisting of representatives of provincial departments, the Alberta Urban Municipalities Association, the Alberta Association of Municipal Districts and Counties, the Rural and Improvement Districts Association of Alberta, the Health Unit Association of Alberta, the City of Calgary and the City of Edmonton. Some of the issues that the Advisory Committee will be asked to consider include: A. The approval process for development permits. B. Appropriate set back distances from other land uses. C. The life span of waste management facilities and their post-closure care. D. New technology. E. Additions to the Regulations. F. Legislative jurisdiction -ma- -2- 5. Current situation. The current Waste Management Regulationunder the Public Health Act has fSji been in place since 1985.

LARRY GOODHOPE - EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR U O),a/ December 9, 1992 TO ALL MD'S AND COUNTIES: For your information, I have enclosed a copy of a letter recently received from the consulting group George B. Cuff and Associates Ltd. titled "An Open Letter to Municipal Elected Officials." As this material covers several timely issues associated with a municipal election year, I trust it may be of interest to you. Yours truly. Larry Goodhope Executive Director -)6H George B. Cuff & Associates Ltd. Management Consultants October 22, 1992 An Open Letter to Municipal Elected Officials Some ofyou are taking up your duties as a member ofCouncil for the first time. Others f may be returning as a result of acclamation or by out-polling your competitor(s) for this I position. Regardless of the route, you are a "new" Councillors in a "new" (and only) 1992-95 Council. As a past traveller of the same route of times past, I offer a few words p of advice. A former professor of mine authored a newsletter which he called "Quid". This he defined as that which should be chewed but not necessarily swallowed! f You will receive lots of advice and comment over the next three years. It will be up to you to sort out whether or not what is being said to you is genuine or a varnished product. This is no simple matter in that advice can be received from all and sundry, p some of whom may have no apparent reason to attempt to mislead you. In the final analysis, however, it is still you who has to decide whether or not the advice is appropriate, ethical and in tune with your perception of the citizenry's expectations. A p further point to remember on that subject - it is wise to keep a list of your pre-election advisors and workers so that contact can be made with them from time to time. These people were invaluable to you in the run-up to the election and thus should not be p readily discarded thereafter. You may want to establish a twice yearly lunch or some gathering wherein those available might be asked to provide you some feedback on their perceptions to date. You should expect to receive a frank assessment and not one -i designed to pump your ego. The problems and concerns which you noted during the campaign with regard to the p municipality and/or the previous regime should be pursued with some vigour. It is too simple a matter to allow the agenda of others to crowd out your own to the point of excluding you from any meaningful dialogue with respect to the inadequacies which you p had perceived in the process leading up to the election. While you need to listen to the concerns and agenda ofthose elected with you, you need also to ensure that you do not forsake leadership for consensus. I You will run into a diverse Council with very different ideas on what needs to be done and in what order of priority. There are some signals to follow in this instance. A « Council team will not necessarily consist of all like-minded individuals. Indeed, the J opinions of your colleagues may range all over the map. ~)6^n George B. Cuff 81 Associates L •ru-The *team willit developj * as you find~ ji ways as a Council-. to consider all input onManagementan equalConsultai footing and as you put in place a thorough decision-making process to ensure that all central themes are adequately covered It is a mistake to view certain members of Council to be "on side" or "off side" depending upon their view at the moment It has been known to happen, for example that the "ui group" became the "out group" between the start and finish of a Council « term. It is also been noted by some that political friendships seldom stand in the way of the realities of re-election! Your team will have strength and weaknesses like all others. As a Council, your task is to mold this disparate group into, a team which shares at least some central causes while differing on others. The Reeve's job is to convince all members that their views are important and that, even if they are not part of the final solution, they will be listened to attentively. Your team will need to know that no one person's idealogy or philosophy will dominate but that Council as a whole will develop a philosophy of its own representing an amalgam of the various interests. You would be wise as a Council to put an end to any bitterness and internal warfare as early as possible. Such comments should not be tolerated but immediately challenged. Ifnecessary, the Reeve should meet with individual members of Council for a private discussion with regard to protocol and the rights of others. The role of Council in the community is that of leadership. This single responsibility rises above all others. You will be unable to lead if you plant your feet within the management group or ifyou abdicate leadership to those in management Council will need to review the management structure and decide if both the structure and personnel are meeting your expectations. Ifthey are, then Council should, very early on, confirm your confidence in them. If they are not, then Council needs to work on orienting the F$ management group to its new style of executive leadership so that the professional managers of Council's business can become valuable members of the Council- management team so fundamental to sound government fw$ Further, I believe it to be important now more than ever that Council review its collective gameplan and clearly articulate to the public what, if anything, will change. It seems to me that the people running for office indicate by pamphlet or in open forum what they stand for and what, if anything, should change in the community. In most instances, comments are made with respect to the need for more openness, more accountability and greater fiscal control. If these (and other statements) are being bandied about by those running for office, should it not be clear that once elected, a pact needs to beforged with the community highlighting these as the principal goals and m priorities of Council. It seems to me, that most Council's, even if they consist ofreturning members, tend to m want to place a new imprint on the community by way of their new mandate. This j mandate should be clearly articulated by Council so that it reflects its notion of what is just and fair rather than the perspective of its predecessor or that of its administration. m SB) George B. Cuff 81 Associates Ltd. It is always wise to remember that you are in office because you have develope^Tttus?nsuilams with the community. The public has elected you to represent them in all matters pertaining to the jurisdiction ofthe municipality. To countenance otherwise, is to court electoral disaster. The public, at no time greater than today, wants to respect its elected officials and to realize that people such as yourself are doing their best to represent their interests both at home and further afield. Your comments, made in serious debate or in jest, carry significant weight p Your public's (including the citizens, media, other levels of government, etc), weigh each of your statements and generally attribute to them the voice of Council. As a member ofCouncil, you must ensure that your private musings remain private. You are expected to follow the will of Council as stated in the resolutions of Council. Your public expects first class leadership which may at times mean compromise on what you believed to be the best resolution to an issue. Thus it has been and thus it will always be. Your ability to do that, without comprising your basic principles, is often what distinguishes the mediocre from the very best in leadership. And finally, even if others fail to pay heed to this advice: do not diminish or be disrespectful ofyour predecessors. While public heat temps one to cast about for others to share the blame with, public office requires accountability and the promise of future action. I would unswervingly focus on what I and my new Council had been elected to do. The history is interesting, but best left to historians. The future is what governance is all about. My best wishes to you and your Council. Yours sincerely, George b. Cuff & Associates Ltd. George B.

TOEOMO Dear Councillors, I was certainly glad to see Mr. Tweedle's statement in the Jan. 5th Western Review, "we had a really good year." Perhaps, we can now appeal to the good senses of our councillors and ask for reinstatment of the night crew in the Public Works Department for road maintenance. I agree with cutbacks, but I really doubt if cutbacks in road maintenance is the way to go. It's scary enough having to travel roads in minus thirty tempatures with a wind howling, without having the added worry of getting stuck or stranded.The trouble is, most of us must travel whether we want to or not. If we don't go to work,we don't pay our bills -including taxes.Most of us voted to keep our Public Safty Department, and that's fine, yet a far more serious situation could develop if our roads are ^ impassable. As for myself, I have lived out in the country for twenty years and have never been stuck or stranded, I don't intend to start now! i^ We also do a lot of talking about getting tourists into our area, how about keeping the roads wellmaintained so they can travel around and see what we have to offer? This includes winter as well as summer. The Public Works Department has an important role to play * in the efficient functioning of this community,let's see we supply them with adequate manpower to do.a decent job! ^ Thank you for your time m Sincerly, j Dovey McGhee 542-2897 „ i^$i V -i.*i —-i
