  • ACTIVE TOGETHER MASTER PLAN Parks, Recreation & Libraries
    ACTIVE TOGETHER MASTER PLAN Parks, Recreation & Libraries 2013 Review & Update May 2013 APPENDIX mbpc Monteith Brown planning consultants ACTIVE TOGETHER MASTER PLAN Parks, Recreation & Libraries APPENDIX A: BACKGROUND DOCUMENT REVIEW 1. Planning Documents The Ontario Planning Act The Ontario Planning Act, R.S.O. 1990 is the guiding document for all land use planning in Ontario, with the objective of promoting sustainable economic development in a healthy environment. Sections 42 and 51.1 of the Planning Act establish a framework for parkland dedication, which provides approval authorities with powers to impose parkland dedication requirements as a condition of development or a plan of subdivision through site plan. These sections maintain that 2% for commercial and industrial land and 5% of residential lands be conveyed to the municipality for parkland or other public recreational purposes. In certain cases, where the approval authority has established specific policies regarding parkland dedication, the Planning Act allows the approval authority to require parkland at a rate of one hectare for each 300 dwelling units proposed. Alternatively, the Planning Act gives the approval authority to accept payment in lieu of parkland equal to the value of land required. The Planning Act establishes that the value of this land is determined the day or the day before the draft plan of subdivision is approved or the issuance of a building permit. Further, Section 42 (6.2) maintains that the Council may reduce the payment of cash‐in‐lieu of parkland if a redevelopment project meets certain sustainability criteria established in the Official Plan, where the Official Plan contains policies regarding the reduction in cash‐in‐lieu payments, and where no land is available to be conveyed for park or other public recreational purposes.

Launched in December 2018, so far, we have collected 'Year One' resources which focus on 'Board Roles and Responsibilities'. In this Year One section, you will find information on topics such as governance principles & best practices; legislative context; the Library Board/CEO relationship; board meetings & decision making and primary board responsibilities. There are short descriptions, videos, links to articles, but there are some longer printable documents. For those who are looking for the type of materials found in old 'Library Board Development Kit', the printable resources in the 'Overview' section can be used as part of a printed orientation package for newly appointed board members. We have also loaded a copy of the SOLS presentation from the OLA SuperConference Trustee Bootcamp In the coming months, we will be building the pages and resources for years two, three and four on the four year board cycle, which we have outlined on the landing page of the Governance HUB.
