DELEGATIONS AND PRESENTATIONS
Christie and Todd Kauffman regarding 1640 Concession Road 9 (former Enfield
Church) – In 2016 the former Enfield United church was converted to a single detached
dwelling. Subsequently, the Kauffman’s purchased the property. They are having
problems with the windows and wainscoting due to the alterations made during the
renovations.
At the April meeting the Kauffman’s presented pictures and videos depicting some of
the damage to the windows and the problems with water damage. The pictures and
videos show the severe window condensation, water leakage and ice forming around
and on the windows. The Kauffman’s indicated that they have contacted a number of
window and other professionals to assist them with finding a solution. The committee
provided the Kauffman’s with some suggestions and asked them to return when they
29

have decided on a course of action. The stain glass windows are a designated feature
and would require an alteration permit.
The Kauffman’s indicated that all the professionals they have contacted indicated that
replacing the windows was the only solution that would resolve the issues. The
alterations made to the existing windows would make it extremely difficult if not
impossible to reuse them. The Kauffman’s are proposing to replace the existing
windows with new redwood windows. The windows will have exterior wooden mullions
replicating the mullions of the existing windows.
The Kauffman’s indicated that they would have liked to replicate the existing stained
glass portions of the windows however the existing stained glass cannot be reused in
the new windows and new stained glass would be cost prohibitive for them. The
committee asked questions about the details of the window construction and
installation.
17.25 Moved by B. Malone, seconded by S. Conway
THAT the committee recommend approval for the replacement of the existing double
hung gothic wooden windows with etched and stained glass with new redwood windows
with wooden mullions in a design that replicates the existing windows.

NEW BUSINESS
St. George’s Church (250 Mill St. S.) – B. Weiler reported that over the years there have
been a number of addition proposals, that link the hall with the main sanctuary of St.
George’s Church, including one that was endorsed by the committee, many years ago.
The church has a new proposal they are looking to bring forward and could be a
delegation at the June meeting. The addition would contain accessible washrooms and
offices, it may be phased.
Enniskillen Church – B. Weiler reported that the Enniskillen Church is for sale. The
property is a primary property on the Municipal Inventory. The church was sold earlier
in 2017; however given the length of time to address issues with title the sale wasn’t
finalized.
1972 Baseline Road – B. Weiler reported that the property at 1972 Baseline Road is
identified as a merit property on the Municipal Inventory. The current owners are
looking at development options for the property. B. Weiler and T. Taylor attended the
property to gather more information on possible heritage potential of the property. The
property consists of a farm house, large barn and smaller brick out building.
The farm house appears to have under gone a number of alterations over the years
including a stucco type finish on the exterior. There are few architectural attributes that
appear original, of unique design and the overall condition of the house is very poor. A
portion of the barn appeared to be very old and included wooden dowel construction.
The barns was in very poor condition and newer additions to the barn used more
modern techniques and materials.
Some additional research regarding previous owners of the property and possible
events that occurred on the property needs to occur. Provided that no significant
information turns up during that research it was the opinion of B. Weiler and T. Taylor
that there was little heritage value left in the existing buildings.
Doors Open – T. Ali has secured a space for the Heritage Committee to set up a display
at the Clarke Museum during Doors Open on June 10. If anyone can volunteer time
that day to man the booth please contact Tracey.
407 Community Vision Plan – B. Weiler indicated that representatives from Black Bird
Construction will be attending the June meeting. A number of committee members
wished to hear this presentation so it was rescheduled. Black Bird will attend to discuss
the Community Value Plan.

8.Lorraine Billings, Legislative Services Associate/Legislative &
Information Services, Town of Ajax – Funding for Great Lakes
Restoration
Whereas, the Great Lakes and St. Lawrence River Basin (the Basin) represents
approximately 20% of the world’s surface fresh water and 84% of North America’s
surface fresh water; and
Whereas, over 48 million people depend on the Basin as a source of drinking
water; and
Whereas, the Basin is the foundation for a $5.8 trillion USD regional economy; and
Whereas, water contamination, harmful algal blooms, invasive species, and climate
change pose threats to the integrity of the resource and prosperity of the Basin; and
Whereas, Canada and the United States have worked cooperatively on the Great
Lakes and St. Lawrence for over 100 years under the Boundary Waters Treaty of
1909 and the Great Lakes Water Quality Agreement of 1972, as most recently
amended in 2012; and
Whereas, significant progress has been made over almost 50 years in restoring
and protecting the Basin based on a shared responsibility for the resource and
significant investment from all orders of government in the United States and
Canada; and
41
General Government Committee
Report to Council
For Council Meeting of June 12, 2017 Page 4
Whereas, local governments in Canada and the United States have invested over
$15 billion USD annually in protection and restoration efforts according to a 2008
study; and
Whereas, the U.S. Federal Government has provided more than $2 billion USD
since 2010 for Great Lakes protection and restoration through the Great Lakes
Restoration Initiative; and
Whereas, the Canadian Federal Government has invested more than $250 million
CAD in Great Lakes and St. Lawrence River initiatives since 2010; and
Whereas, the President of the United States proposed eliminating the entire $300
million USD in funding for the Great Lakes Restoration Initiative in the 2017-2018
budget; and
Whereas, the 2017 Canadian budget proposes approximately $114 million CAD
over five years to support water protection and restoration but has no line item
dedicated to the Basin at the magnitude necessary; and
Whereas, these budgets do not adequately address the urgent needs of the Great
Lakes and St. Lawrence Basin and will slow down or halt critical restoration and
protection efforts and economic recovery in the region;
Now, therefore, be it resolved, that the United States Congress appropriate the full
$300 million USD authorized for the Great Lakes Restoration Initiative in the
2017-2018 budget; and
Be it further resolved, that the Canadian Federal Government work collaboratively
with provinces, local governments, First Nations and Metis, and other stakeholders
to develop a common strategy and to increase funding for the Great Lakes and St.
Lawrence Basin to match the significance of the resource and the magnitude of the
challenges;
Be it further resolved, that all orders of government must share the responsibility for
the protection and restoration of the Great Lakes and St. Lawrence Basin and
recognize the importance of the resource in their budgets; and
Be it finally resolved, that copies of this resolution be forwarded to the President of
the United States, the Prime Minister of Canada, the Governors of the eight Great
Lakes States, the Premiers of Quebec and Ontario, the Canadian Minister of
Environment and Climate Change, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
Administrator, and the Great Lakes and St. Lawrence Cities Initiative.

Report Overview
To request authorization from Council to award CL2017-3 for Depot 42 New Storage
Buildings.
1.Background
Tender specifications were prepared by AECOM and provided by the Operations
Department for two new storage buildings at Depot 42 Operations Centre, located at 178
Darlington Clarke Townline Road, RR#4 in Bowmanville.
Tender CL2017-3 was issued by the Purchasing Division and advertised electronically on
the Municipality’s website. Notification of the availability of the document was also posted
on the Ontario Public Buyer’s Association website. Fifty-six companies downloaded the
document.
The tender closed on Thursday, February 23, 2017.
A total of twelve submissions were received in response to the tender call. Bids were
reviewed and tabulated (see Attachment 1). One bid submission was deemed non-
compliant.
2.Proposal
2.1 Analysis
After review and analysis of the submissions by the Consultant, the Operations
Department and the Purchasing Division, it was mutually agreed that the low compliant
bidder, Buddy Haegele Enterprises Ltd. be recommended for the award of contract
CL2017-3 for Depot 42 New Storage Buildings.
The scope of work for recommendation for award includes site works, construction of a
conventional building and general items (bonds, insurance, maintenance, security and
mobilization/demobilization). The provisional item of a prefabricated storage building is
not included in the award. The reduction in the scope of work by excluding the pre-
fabricated building resulted in a savings of $284,057.95 (Net of HST).
Buddy Haegele Enterprises Ltd. has not done work for the Municipality in the past, as a
result references were checked and came back with satisfactory responses.

Municipality of Clarington
Addendum to Report PSD-034-17 Page 2
Report Overview
At the May 23, 2017 Council meeting correspondence was received from Peter Zakarow
(Attachment 3), representing the owners of 282 Liberty St. N., in objection to adding 282
Liberty Street North to the Municipal Register. The correspondence was referred to staff to
respond to concerns raised in the objection. This addendum report addresses the concerns
raised in the correspondence and recommends that the three properties (282 Liberty Street
North, 1598 Baseline Road and 1738 Bloor Street) be added to the Municipal Register.
1. Requirements of the Ontario Heritage Act for non-designated
properties on the Municipal Register
Every municipality in Ontario, under Section 27 of the Ontario Heritage Act, is required to
maintain a Municipal Register that lists all formally designated heritage properties. The
Register can also include properties that have cultural heritage value or interest but are not
yet designated. There are very few requirements under the Ontario Heritage Act when
adding non-designated properties to the Municipal Register. Staff outlined the benefits of
adding non-designated properties to the Municipal Register in Report PSD-034-17 (see
Attachment 2).
To add a non-designated property, the Ontario Heritage Act does not require that property
owners be notified when Council is considering adding a property or adds a property to the
Municipal Register. When adding a property to the Municipal Register the Act requires the
municipality have reason to believe a property has cultural value or interest and requires a
description of the property that is sufficient to readily locate the property, such as a
municipal address.
The Ontario Heritage Act provides criteria under Ontario Regulation 9/06 (O.Reg 9/06) for
determining cultural value or interest that a property must meet when designating a
property under Part IV of the Act. The Act does not require non-designated properties on
the Municipal Register to meet the criteria of O. Reg 9/06 rather that the municipality has
reason to believe it could meet those criteria. The Act does not require a fulsome
description of the property nor the listing of the significant elements of a property.
Staff understands that Mr. Zakarow has detailed knowledge of the Ontario Heritage Act
and has experience with other municipalities. The Act does not require the detailed
procedure outlined in Mr. Zakarow’s letter and municipalities have very different
procedures for adding properties to the Municipal Register as outlined in Section 2.
2. Process of Reviewing Properties
2.1 Municipal Examples
In 2005 when the Ontario Heritage Act amendments came into effect municipalities took
varying approaches to adding non-designated properties to the municipal register. A few
municipalities, such as Toronto, created a very detailed process by which they undertake
the same or very similar to designating a property. The detailed process generally
58
Municipality of Clarington
Addendum to Report PSD-034-17 Page 3
includes engaging property owners at the beginning, inviting them to meet with the
municipal heritage committee and staff. In addition, the property is thoroughly
researched and assessed using criteria defined in O. Reg 9/06.
Recently, Ajax has created a similar process as outlined above. After years of work they
have not added any properties to the Municipal Register. They are planning to bring a
number of properties forward to their Council for inclusion on the Municipal Register in
the future; however, no specific date has been set.
Ajax is the best example staff could identify of a similar population size municipality using
this process. Ajax municipal staff have invested a significant amount of time and
resources to undertake this process. Toronto has heritage staff and resources dedicated
to heritage preservation.
In contrast, a number of municipalities have taken a different approach when the new
provisions of the Act came into effect. Some municipalities, including Markham, Whitby
and Guelph, took their existing municipal inventories and added a majority or all the
properties to the municipal register. In some examples the number of properties added
were in the hundreds. This approach has challenges, as typically there are a larger
number of requests to remove properties from the Municipal Register. Requests are
made due to properties having been significantly altered over time, some for lack
research and some based on the principle that owners do not want to be included on the
Municipal Register.
2.2 Clarington’s Approach
Clarington’s municipal inventory currently includes approximately 1000 properties. The
inventory was created between 1985 and 1990. Some updates have been carried out in
the intervening years and a photographic inventory has been developed. A number of
buildings on the inventory have been lost to demolition over the years.
The Clarington Heritage Committee is in the process of reviewing the inventory and
recommends the Municipality use the Municipal Register in a more proactive manner. A
sub-committee was created and a heritage building evaluation system adopted by the
Heritage Committee. The evaluation system is based on an evaluation system used by
Parks Canada, and multiple municipalities including Toronto, Markham, Mississauga and
Ottawa. Committee members evaluate the property visible from the public right of way
and conduct initial research into the property. The intention is to make ongoing
recommendations to Council to add properties to the Municipal Register.
The evaluation criteria minimizes subjectivity when reviewing properties. The sub-
committee members review the properties individually, including researching local
heritage materials, before meeting to provide a collective score for the property. The
properties are then presented to the entire committee for discussion and review. The
Heritage Committee then determines whether to make a recommendation to Council.
59
Municipality of Clarington
Addendum to Report PSD-034-17 Page 4
This approach allows the Committee and staff to review properties in relation to the time
and resources available. Full review under the criteria of O.Reg 9/06 would significantly
increase the time required for each evaluation and limit the number of properties that
could be reviewed in a given year. Given the ongoing development pressures that
Clarington’s urban areas are experiencing the Heritage Committee is primarily focusing
on properties within the urban boundaries.
Staff acknowledges there was an error in the description in Attachment 1 in report PSD-
034-17 (Attachment 2 to this report) with regard to 282 Liberty Street North. The error
stated that the property was constructed in the Edwardian style. The property is
constructed in the Queen Anne style. Attachment 1 to Report PSD-034-17 have been
updated to correct the error when describing the property at 282 Liberty Street North.
3. Notification of Property Owners
Staff mailed notice to the property owners of the three properties on May 1, 2017, two
weeks prior to the May 15, 2017 Planning and Development meeting where report PSD-
034-17 was considered. Previous Councils had directed staff to notify property owners
when a property would be considered by Council for addition to the Municipal Register.
The Ontario Heritage Act does not require that property owners be notified when Council
is considering adding a property to the Municipal Register. The Ontario Heritage Act
leaves the process for communicating with property owners up to individual
municipalities.
4. Limitations on Properties on the Municipal Register
The addition of a non-designated property to the Municipal Register provides additional
protection of the property from demolition, requiring property owners to provide Council
with 60 days written notice of their intention to demolish.
Adding a property to the Municipal Register does not prevent the owner’s use, enjoyment
or right to alter their property. There is no added requirements on the property owner and
no additional onus to maintain the property to a higher standard than any other property
not on the Municipal Register under the Property Standards By-law.
Properties can be removed from the Municipal Register by Council. The properties in the
path of the 407 and 418 Highways are examples of when this has occurred recently in
Clarington.
5. Concurrence
The Municipal Solicitor has reviewed the report and concurs with the process outlined
within.
60
Municipality of Clarington
Addendum to Report PSD-034-17 Page 5
6. Conclusion
The Ontario Heritage Act sets out the requirements for adding non-designated properties
to the Municipal Register. The Heritage Committee and staff have established a process
for reviewing properties that exceed the requirements of the Act. The process used
balances the staff and committee member’s time and resources available. The
recommendation of Report PSD-034-17 and this Addendum Report is to add three
properties (282 Liberty Street North, 1598 Baseline Road and 1738 Bloor Street) to the
Municipal Register.
7. Strategic Plan Application

282 Liberty Street North (Norwood)
The house at 282 Liberty Street North, known as Norwood Place, was constructed
between 1897 and 1903 by John (father) and Fred (son) Foster. The house is
constructed in the Queen Anne Style using artificial stone. The round tower, prominent
gable, dormer, steeply pitched roof and large verandah framed with decorative columns
are prominent features of this style. The addition of an artificial stone balustrade and a
portico are uncommon elements unique to this property. Artificial stone is a unique
building material, especially in the Queen Anne style in Clarington, as it was only
popular for a very short time around the turn of the century. The stones were typically
constructed on site using molds.
The Foster family was one of the wealthiest families in Bowmanville around the time the
house was constructed.

Report Overview
The Clarington Heritage Committee are recommending the addition of three properties to the
Municipal Register. The three properties (282 Liberty Street North, 1598 Baseline Road and
1738 Bloor Street) are all primary properties on the municipal inventory. The addition of the
properties to the Municipal Register will provide additional protection for the buildings and
promote Clarington’s local heritage. The Municipal Register is a listing of the cultural
resources of the Municipality including designated buildings and buildings where further
consideration is warranted. By including them on the Municipal Register, the Municipality has
ample time to evaluate whether a demolition permit should be issued when an application is
received.
1. Ontario Heritage Act
Every municipality in Ontario, under Section 27 of the Ontario Heritage Act, is required to
maintain a Municipal Register that lists all formally designated heritage properties. In
2009 Council expanded Clarington’s Municipal Register to include “non-designated”
properties that it believes to be of cultural heritage value or interest. The decision to
include a “non-designated” property rests with municipal council upon consultation with its
municipal heritage committee.
Listing a property is a formal indication that a property has cultural heritage value. Listing
a property provides minimal protection for the property. When the property is on the
Municipal Register, the Municipality has additional time, up to 60 days to review a request
for a demolition permit rather than the timelines outlined in the Building Code Act.
This increased time allows for a more thorough evaluation of the property and time to
provide Council with a recommendation on demolition or moving forward with designation
of the property. The 60 days allows sufficient time to properly evaluate the building
condition, protection options, alternate development proposals, etc. and make a
recommendation to Council on the cultural value of a property.
Adding the property to the Municipal Register also allows the Municipality to request a
demolition applicant to undertake a study or research to show that the property does not
have significant heritage value, that mitigation measures or alternative recognition can be
implemented.
2. Properties on Clarington’s Municipal Register
The Municipal Register is the list of cultural heritage properties that have been identified
as being important to the community. It is an important tool to help a municipality monitor
its cultural heritage resources and plan for their conservation.
The majority of non-designated properties that have been added to the municipal register
have been under threat of demolition. Examples are the buildings at Camp 30 and
properties effected by the 407 extension. In these cases, since it was a reactive
approach, the Municipality had to act very quickly when the properties were under threat.
64
Municipality of Clarington
Report PSD-034-17 Page 3
Proactively evaluating properties and adding properties to the Municipal Register is the
preferred approach. The Municipal Register can be used to identify properties with
cultural value and interest and to help educate the community and future owners,
increasing transparency about the property’s cultural value.
Clarington currently maintains a cultural heritage property inventory, identifying properties
as primary, secondary or merit. The inventory was created between 1985 and 1990. A
number of buildings on the inventory have been lost to demolition over the years.
Recently, the Clarington Heritage Committee set up a sub-committee and established a
building evaluation criteria with the intention of reviewing properties on the municipal
inventory. The Heritage Committee began reviewing properties on the municipal
inventory, starting with the primary properties within the urban areas. The Heritage
Committee members review properties using the evaluation criteria and make
recommendations on properties to be included on the Municipal Register.
The Heritage Committee reviewed three properties (282 Liberty Street North, 1598
Baseline Road and 1738 Bloor Road) and recommend adding all three properties to the
Municipal Register. Committee members do not enter the property. A description of the
properties can be found in Attachments 1, 2 and 3 of this report.
3. Public Notice and Submissions
Under the Ontario Heritage Act there is no notification requirements before Council adds
a property to the Municipal Register as a listed property. However, Staff, the Heritage
Committee and previous Councils believed notification to property owners was important.
Accordingly Staff have notified the owners of the three properties currently under
consideration.
Notice was sent to the property owners on May 1, 2017 indicating a staff report would be
going to Planning and Development Committee recommending adding the respective
properties to the Municipal Register.
Preston Homes, the owner of 1738 Bloor Street, wish to proceed with the Secondary
Planning process for this area. They do not intent to retain this building. They advised
that the building has been vacant for a number of years and is in poor condition.
A representative of the owners of 282 Liberty Street called to obtain more information.
They requested that a decision on adding this property to the Municipal Register be
deferred until they could address the Clarington Heritage Committee and provide
additional background information to them.
As of the time of writing this report, no response has been received from the owners of
1598 Baseline Road.

5. Conclusion
Staff and the Clarington Heritage Committee are recommending that 282 Liberty Street
North (Attachment 1), 1598 Baseline Road (Attachment 2) and 1738 Bloor Street
(Attachment 3) be added to the Municipal Register. Proactively adding properties to the
Municipal Register has the following benefits:
i) It allows for 60 days prior to the issuance of a demolition permit to evaluate the
property in more detail and explore options.
ii) It provides a clear indication that a property has cultural value or interest.
iii) It illustrates that a community places value on its culture and heritage.
6. Strategic Plan Application
The recommendations contained in this report conform to the Strategic Plan, specifically
actions 3.4 and 3.5.

282 Liberty Street North (Norwood)
The house at 282 Liberty Street North, known as Norwood Place, was constructed
between 1897 and 1903 by the John (father) and Fred (son) Foster. The house is
constructed in the Edwardian Style using artificial stone. Artificial stone is a unique
building material as it was only popular for a very short time around the turn of the
century. The stones were constructed on site using molds.
The Foster family was one of the wealthiest families in Bowmanville around the time the
house was constructed. The original house built on the property was converted to a
garage which is believed to still be located on the property today.

1598 Baseline Road (Jesse Trull House)
The Jesse Trull house was constructed in 1872, as evidenced by the date stone located
above the front door. The three gable farm house was constructed using field stone
and exhibits many gothic revival elements. This style of house could be seen around
the township during this period but this is the only house that has been identified in that
style that was built with fieldstone. The building has lost some of its original elements
like the side verandas and bargeboard which once decorated the gables.
Jesse Trull was a descendant of one of the earliest settlers in Darlington Township.

Attachment 3 to
Municipality of Clarington Report PSD-034-17
1738 Bloor Street (Christopher Courtice House “Lower Alsworth”)
The Christopher Courtice house, also known as Lower Alsworth, was constructed circa 1870.
The farmhouse has a centre gable and buff brick around the windows and front door. The buff
brick is used in an unusual fashion imitating stone quoins. The building had some alterations
done around 1920 including the addition of the front porch.
Christopher Courtice immigrated to Canada in 1833, arriving in Darlington in August of that
year. Courtice is named for Christopher’s brother Thomas, who emigrated in 1831.
Christopher and his children are primarily credited with settling the area as Thomas moved to
the Whitby area not long after Christopher arrived. Christopher helped to establish the first
local school house in the area, was a local preacher and took the lead at many public
meetings. Christopher was also essential in the formation of Ebenezer Church at the
southeast corner of Courtice Road and Bloor Street. Christopher and his wife are interned in
the Ebenezer cemetery.

Mayor Foster & Council
Municipality of Clarington
40 Temperance Street
Bowmanville, ON L1C 3A6
Dear Mayor Foster & Council:
I am writing on behalf of the Humane Society of Durham Region to lend support to requests that
Clarington implement a ban on the sale of animals in pet shops.
Pet stores and other markets involved in the business of selling animals for profit contribute to an
unregulated industry of puppy mills and commercial breeders. Peer-reviewed studies conclude that
such animals are typically produced by intensive breeding in substandard conditions. This results in
their incurring a high number of communicable diseases (zoonosis), and adverse genetic and
neurological symptoms, as well as behavioral issues.
Furthermore, pet stores promote impulse buying, do not screen or educate buyers, and often house
animals in environments non-conducive to their health. Consumers are denied the opportunity to
approach the breeder(s); inspect their operations or premises; assess the pups’ or kittens’ parents;
access medical records (if any exist), or ask questions - thus consumers are not protected.
The Canadian Kennel Club (CKC) Member Breeders’ Code of Practice expressly and unequivocally
forbids breeders to sell to pet stores. Section III (g) states: “No breeder shall sell or donate dogs for
the purpose of their being auctioned, raffled or to pet stores”.
The Canadian Federation of Humane Societies notes that over the past decade, the puppy mill
industry has increased in Canada. Puppy mills are increasingly registering their dogs with online
registration bodies that are not recognized in Canada, such as the North American Purebred Dog
Registry. Further, registration does not guarantee a puppy’s health or quality.
Prior to 1995, most puppies in Canadian and Ontario pet stores were imported from mills in the United
States. But in that year, new legislation was enacted to regulate the import of puppies from the U.S.
The new law required that puppies be micro-chipped, vaccinated and health-checked by a
veterinarian. Because many U.S. shipments did not meet these standards, this measure was
successful in reducing the number of puppy imports to Canada. Unfortunately, the decrease in
imported puppies from the U.S. has created a demand that is now met by an increase in Canadian
mills.
In 2011, the City of Toronto unanimously passed a bylaw that bans the sale of animals in stores.
Councillor Glenn De Baeremaeker, who put forward the motion, stated that pet stores that sell animals
are bad for pets and consumers. “They’re kept in small cages, they’re not socialized, they have
immense health problems,” he said. “Consumers are getting ripped off.” The bylaw stipulates that
13.2

1505 Wentworth St. Whitby, ON L1N 0H9
stores cannot sell dogs or cats unless obtained from a municipal shelter, a humane society or
registered rescue group. The bylaw also serves to reduce euthanasia by steering consumers to
animals that have been health-checked and spayed/neutered. “It really slams the door closed on
people who mass-produce animals for profit,” said Mr. De Baeremaeker.
The Cities of Toronto, Mississauga, Vaughan, Kingston, Wellington, Waterloo, Oakville, Cambridge,
Richmond Hill and Chatham-Kent have recently placed the same restrictions on the sale of pets from
pet stores, and more Ontario municipalities, including Oshawa who have approved a ban in principle,
are currently working on policy changes prior to ratification.
The Humane Society of Durham Region wholeheartedly supports the ban of the sale of animals in pet
stores, retail establishments, flea markets and online, unless they are from a municipal shelter,
humane society or recognized community rescue organization.” By stopping the sale of pets in stores
and through online agencies, it will both reduce the number of unaltered and potentially unhealthy
animals entering the community and it will help the rescue organizations find homes for those animals
already in shelters. It’s a win-win situation.
Reputable pet stores, such as PetSmart and Pet Valu, have long recognized the problem and
have opted to work with the community by bringing in rescued cats and dogs into their stores from
local shelters and rescue organizations to help re-home them, instead of being a part of an otherwise
harmful industry.
Pet stores get their animals from two sources; commercial kennels or backyard breeders. These
operations, which have been found in our region, are solely there for profit. The adult breeding animals
are housed in unimaginable conditions - they are kept in pens or cages their entire lives, suffering from
disease and parasites; many which are 100% transmittable to humans. The puppies coming from the
operations are too often ill, leading to large medical bills for unsuspecting customers.
The population of unwanted pets is at epidemic proportions. Currently there are hundreds and
hundreds of dogs available for adoption in a one hour radius around Clarington on petfinder.com. The
number of dogs entering Canadian shelters and rescue organizations each year is estimated at two
million with one million being euthanized each year, through no fault of their own.
Therefore, we urge the Town of Clarington to enact a resale ban and amend the bylaw to ban the sale
of companion dogs, cats and rabbits in pet shops and any other retail outlets, unless they are sourced
from a municipal shelter, the humane society, or a recognized community animal rescue organization.
Sincerely,
Karen L. Ormerod, MM, CFRE
