As you flip through the pages of this calendar, you will notice that the focus is shaped around our 2020 – 2024 Integrated Waste Management Strategy. This vital document provides short-term and long-term initiatives to ensure we’re on track with municipal goals and that we continue to implement best practices around waste and recycling. Waste management is entering a challenging and exciting time as the province is changing how it will operate waste diversion programs. The future will involve producers of goods taking responsibility for costs and disposal. These changes will continue to happen over the next five years. One of the biggest goals of the strategy is to achieve a 70% diversion rate of waste from our landfills by the year 2048. View the full strategy and stay updated on Waste and Recycling by visiting www.kawarthalakes.ca/recycle. Ice fishing on Sturgeon Lake 4 5 February• 2021 Say goodbye to single-use In the fall of 2019, Kawartha Lakes implemented a voluntary ban of single-use plastics and Styrofoam. Many single-use items are difficult to recycle and often end up in our landfills, or worse, end up as litter in our lakes, parks and roadsides. What is a single-use plastic? An item that is intended to be used one time before disposing. Examples include: plastic water bottles, plastic grocery bags, plastic straws, disposable cups such as coffee and fast food beverages and take-out Styrofoam containers. What can I do to help reduce my footprint? • BYO – Bring Your Own (cup, bag, straw, container) where applicable • Support businesses that have made the switch to reusable packaging (some even offer discounts!) • Check out our Jump In page for more information on the voluntary ban and more ideas on reducing waste Jump In and join the conversation at www.jumpinkawarthalakes.ca/RRR Pond hockey in Bobcaygeon 6 7 March• 2021 Act green while you clean With March comes spring and with spring we often clean in and around our homes and cottages. While you’re in the midst of getting rid of items that clutter your space, or disposing of food products that have passed their shelf life, make sure you’re aware of exactly where they go before you throw them away. Household electronics: Bring your old electronics to any of our landfill sites to be recycled for free. This includes items such as old computers, toasters, coffee makers, cellphones and power tools. Furniture: Large bulky items (up to 220lbs) can be picked up directly from your curb by purchasing a large item tag. We also have a mattress recycling program in place at our Lindsay Ops landfill. Expired food: Food items belongs in the waste or, alternatively, in a backyard composter. However, the containers can go in the blue (such as jars and cans) or green (such as cardboard boxes) recycling streams. Be sure to wash the food waste out before throwing them away. Blue Heron on Balsam Lake 8 9 April• 2021 Be in charge of your own waste One of the most significant impacts you can do to help reduce your landfill footprint and greenhouse gas emissions is to set up a backyard composter. Studies show that a single household can reduce 30% of generated waste just by backyard composting. One of the goals of the updated Waste Strategy is to provide more public education on how you can get involved and easily start backyard composting in your own yard. What can you place in a backyard composter? • Fruits & vegetables • Houseplants • Eggshells • Hay & straw • Coffee grounds & filters • Leaves • Tea bags • Sawdust • Nut shells • Wood chips • Shredded newspaper • Dryer & vacuum lint • Yard trimmings • Hair & fur • Grass clippings • Fireplace ashes Interested in composting? We have backyard composters and digesters for sale through our Waste Division. Learn more about the benefits at www.kawarthalakes.ca/backyard-composting. Kayaking on Pigeon Lake 10 11 May• 2021 May we take your mattress? In 2018, our Waste Division began a mattress recycling program at the Lindsay landfill to help prevent the large and bulky items from entering our landfills. In just two years we’ve recycled over 8000 mattresses. To put that into perspective, roughly 100 mattresses can fill a full sized tractor trailer - that’s approximately 80 trailers worth of space saved at our landfills. By diverting mattresses, we are able to further extend the life of our landfill sites. With only five locations across the municipality and two with forecasted closure dates in 2024, it’s vital we continue to divert as much waste as possible to keep our sites open for you. Looking to dispose of an old mattress? We offer a curbside pickup option (which requires a mattress tag purchased in advance) or you can come directly to the Lindsay Ops Landfill to drop it off. Learn more at www.kawarthalakes.ca/diversion-programs. Emily Provincial Park 12 13 June• 2021 Can you be-leaf it’s June already? As everyone begins to prepare for summer, we would like to remind residents of our curbside leaf and yard collection coming up this month. On your scheduled day, place paper leaf and yard bags as well as branches and twigs curbside to be collected. Remember that grass and items in plastic bags will not be accepted. Important reminders for collection • Materials must be curbside by 7am • Leaves must be stored in dry paper bags (otherwise they rip open at the curb and will not be collected) • Branches and twigs must be properly bundled at a size less than 3 ft in length and 40 lb in weight Leaf and yard disposal at our landfills We recognize that residents will often have more leaf and yard waste to dispose of throughout the year. You can also bring leaf and yard waste anytime of the year to our landfill sites -we take up to 250 kg for free! See the calendar dates below to confirm your scheduled day or for more information, visit www.kawarthalakes.ca/ curbside-collection. Dockside on Pigeon Lake 14 15 July• 2021 Jump In Kawartha Lakes! With over 250 bodies of water across the City, it’s easy to find a place tojump in to. That’s the beauty of where we live - our natural landscape offers many different types of recreational opportunities. It’s always easy to head outdoors and jump in to a new adventure! That being said, we also want everyone to find it easy to jump in to conversations with the City, to join discussions around large projects and have a say when it comes to decisions that impact our communities. Welcome to Jump In Kawartha Lakes! Through this online tool, you can: • Learn about major projects, including design plans, contact information and past meetings held • Participate in surveys, mapping tools and idea forums around City-led initiatives • Stay up to date by subscribing to receive new information on projects right to your email Jump in and join the conversation today! Visit www.kawarthalakes.ca/jumpin for more information. Jumping in Four Mile Lake 16 17 August• 2021 Help keep Kawartha Lakes green (and clean!) Another initiative of our Waste Strategy is to increase recycling options throughout the municipality, such as adding more recycling options in public spaces like parks, downtowns, marinas, trails and other popular community areas. Help do your part by practicing proper waste and recycling wherever you go. This includes not overfilling our waste bins or illegally dumping items. It not only costs the environment by destroying landscapes and potentially harming animals, but could also cost you up to $5000 in legal fines. If you witness dumping of any sort on municipal property, such as at a park, on the roadside or in a lake/river, please let us know by: • Reporting it online: www.kawarthalakes.ca/reportit • Contacting Municipal Law Enforcement at: 705-324-9411 extension 1212. Fishing boats on Pigeon Lake 18 19 September• 2021 Shout out this September Did you know that Kawartha Lakes has a dedicated website where we recognize organizations, businesses and residents across the City for their efforts in reducing waste? This is an interactive space for anyone to share ideas for creative waste reduction and to highlight those who are doing a great job! You’ll find blog articles and an interactive map where you can shout out your favourite businesses that are promoting waste reduction. There is also an ideas page where you can share tips and tricks for other residents, important links for information and a Q&A section. Visit www.jumpinkawarthalakes.ca/RRR to learn more. You can also subscribe online to receive email updates around waste and recycling, as well as other municipal news such as major projects, road closures and Council updates.

AUTHOR'S PREFACE This history has been appearing serially through the Lindsaj "Watchman-Warder" for the past eleven months and is now issued in book form for the first time. The occasion for its preparation is, of course, the one hundredth anniversary of the opening up of Victoria county. Its chief purposes are four in number: — (1) to place on record the local details of pioneer life that are fast passing into oblivion; (2) to instruct the present generation of school-children in the ori- gins and development of the social system in which they live; (3) to show that the form which our county's development has taken has been largely determined by physiographical, racial, social, and economic forces; and (4) to demonstrate how we may, after a scien- tific study of these forces, plan for the evolution of a higher eco- nomic and social order. The difficulties of the work have been prodigious. A Victoria County Historical Society, formed twenty years ago for a similar purpose, found the field so sterile that it disbanded, leaving no re- cords behind. Under such circumstances, I have had to dig deep.

Peter Hvidsten 1 PORT PERRY’S FLOATING BRIDGE The first bridge to link Port Perry with Scugog Island was ricketty, unstable, and unreliable, but it was agreed by all, that the floating bridge was better than no bridge at all.

This all changed when William Purdy constructed a dam at what is now Lindsay. Purdy entered into an agreement with the government to build a saw mill and a grist mill on the Scugog River. Purdy’s dam and the saw mill were completed by September, 1828. The water eventually filled the millpond to capacity in April, 1829.

Enbridge Gas also indicates that it will be seeking an order for a rate surcharge and a certificate of public convenience and necessity in relation to the project. Bobcaygeon is situated in the City of Kawartha Lakes. Enbridge Gas has a Municipal Franchise Agreement (MFA) with the City of Kawartha Lakes but will require a Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity (Certificate) in order to construct natural gas works to and in Bobcaygeon. Scugog Island is situated in the Regional Municipality of Durham, in the Township of Scugog. Enbridge Gas has a MFA and Certificate for the Township of Scugog.
