Presentation by Delegations (a) Michael & Kristy, Owners of Star Apples (opening at old Lakeview Burger location) Introduction to the BIA. Star Apples is a restaurant that will serve Jamaican food. They have owned businesses in Jamaica and other parts of Ontario. Interested in participating in events and asked some questions about what is permitted. (b) Ron Albright, Assistant Director, Engineering Services Presenting to the BIA for information and feedback. The property owner of 98 King St W has requested the Municipality remove a parking space on King St W. Property owner at 191 Church St blocked off the entrance/exit that connects to the parking lot at 98 King St W which means all entry/exit from lot are via driveway on King St. Driver view is obstructed by vehicles parked in parking space to east of 98 King St lot (in front of Star Nails) when exiting lot. Municipality is working with property owners to find solutions. There are concerns over loss of parking space even on an interim basis and would prefer for property owners to settle differences. 2. Adoption of Minutes Moved by R. Hooper, seconded by G. Lucas THAT the minutes of the meeting of March 12, 2019 be approved as circulated. CARRIED 3. Business Arising from Previous Minutes (a) Festival Vendor Applications 42 Historic Downtown Bowmanville 2 April 2019 Business Centre (BIA) Vendor applications were posted to the website on March 16 which represents a delay of nearly 3 months. Owing to the requirements implemented/requested by the Municipality at the January 29, 2019 meeting, the entire festival vendor application process had to be overhauled. This placed a significant burden on the BIA and required a substantial commitment of time (more than 28.5 hrs) to revise the rules and regulations, registration fees, application categories, create indemnity agreements, and develop a new application process. The BIA then worked with Nerivon from March 13-16 to revise the application forms, test the process, and then post the new forms on the website which totalled another 10 hours of BIA time. The new requirements and processes have also resulted in a significant increase in the amount of resources, work, and time by the BIA in order to accept vendors to the festivals. (b) Digital Main Street Concerns have been raised that the Business Advisory Centre of Durham applied for the grant on behalf of the BIA without authorization. Information about the program has been shared with BIA members via email and in the monthly newsletter. A flyer announcing the Information Session scheduled for April 29, 2019 will be distributed by hand to all BIA members. Concerted efforts to promote the program and resources available to small businesses are necessary. (c) Winter Snowflake decor James Publishing and Signs has removed the snowflakes. The snowflakes are in disrepair and need replaced. Moved by G. Lucas, seconded by M. James THAT James Publishing and Signs dispose of the snowflakes. CARRIED 4.

The look of pure joy while spending time with friends, family, children, parents, or just quiet moments alone where the concerns of daily life are a world away. We were fortunate in 2018 to see so many people enjoying those moments in our conservation areas, and in our forest bathing and education programs, seniors' hikes and community events. 2018 was a year of special moments, and the recurring theme was people: connecting with the community, connecting people with nature, and providing continued value to the community. Through our active and engaged citizen science Our science -based programming, , planning and permitting activities working to conserve the value of our landscape and protect development investment, academic partnerships and climate adaptation continue to put the health of our watershed, and safety of our watershed residents, at the forefront of what we do. Through our vision, our mission and our focus we believe that working with our community, and for our community is paramount.

Water temperature data has been routinely collected at approximately 30 locations along known coldwater streams since 2006. These systems support sensitive aquatic life such as Brook Trout, which are of particular management concern because their populations across southern Ontario are in widespread decline.

Report To: General Government Committee Date of Meeting: May 27, 2019 Report Number: ESD -004-19 Resolution: File Number: By-law Number: Report Subject: Amendment to Open Air Burning By-law Recommendations: 1. That Report ESD -004-19 be received; and 2. That the draft amending By -Law (Attachment 1 to Report ESD -004-19), being a by-law to amend the Open Air Burning By -Law 2012-062 be approved. 70 Municipality of Clarington Report ESD -004-19 Page 2 Report Overview The purpose of this report is to respond to Resolution #GG -037-19 and amend the Open Air Burning By-law. 1. Background 1.1 In 2012, Council passed By-law 2012-062 to regulate the setting of fires in the open air within the Municipality of Clarington repealing the previous By-law 2001-113. In January of 2019, we received a letter from a resident requesting an adjustment to our current Open Air Burning By-law to allow recreational fire pits. On February 11, 2019, Council passed Resolution #GG -037-19 arising out of correspondence from Mr. Panetta. Staff met with Mr. Panetta on February 28, 2019, to discuss his concerns. 1.2 Staff have reviewed By-law 2012-062 and identified that Section 12 allows the Fire Chief to grant a special permit to meet Mr. Panetta's needs. In 2018, the department responded to 80 complaints of illegal burning of which many were of a camp fire nature. The by-law continues to work well regulating open-air burning throughout the Municipality. It is suggested that for the health and safety of the community the current conditions of the by-law remain in place. Staff have discussed their findings with Mr. Panetta. 2. Open Air Burning By-law 2.1 With the review of By-law 2012-062, as well an additional review of close to 20 other municipalities Burning By-laws staff have determined that an update is required to include additional parameters for land used for agricultural purposes. Section 13 (c) currently allows for a single burn pile that is less than 1 metre in diameter and less than 1 metre high. It is proposed that the Permit Conditions be amended to allow a single pile size of 3m x 3m x 3m if the land is used for agricultural purposes and is not located in a designated "Urban Area" or "Hamlet Residential" in the Clarington Official Plan. 3. Conclusion It is respectfully recommended that the proposed update to the Open Air Burning By-law outlined in Attachment 1 to this Report be approved. 71 Municipality of Clarington Resort ESD -004-19 4.

Now therefore the Council of the Municipality of Clarington hereby enacts as follows: 1.

Report To: General Government Committee Date of Meeting: May 27, 2019 Report Number: CLD -013-19 Resolution: File Number: By-law Number: Report Subject: Status of Jungle Cat World under the Exotic Animal By-law Recommendations: 1. That Report CLD -013-19 be received; 2. That the By-law attached as Attachment 1 to Report CLD -013-19 be approved; and 3. That all interested parties listed in Report CLD -013-19 and any delegations be advised of Council's decision. 92 Municipality of Clarington Report CLD -013-19 Report Overview Page 2 Jungle Cat World Wildlife Park is a zoological park open to residents and visitors of Clarington. The Park offers a unique opportunity to see and experience exotic species in a secure, up -close and personal environment. At the December 10, 2018 General Government Committee meeting, correspondence from Canada's Accredited Zoos and Aquariums (CAZA) stating that Jungle Cat World was no longer CAZA certified was referred to staff for further information. This report details the history of Jungle Cat World, zoning and requirements under Clarington's Exotic Animal By-law 2012-045. 1. Background 1.1 At the December 10, 2018 General Government Committee meeting, correspondence was received from CAZA stating that Jungle Cat World was no longer CAZA certified. Because CAZA certification is required to continue operation as per the Exotic Animal By-law, the correspondence was referred to staff for additional information (Resolution # JC -011-18). 1.2 Jungle Cat World Wildlife Park, formally Orono Exotic Cat World, is located at 3667 Concession Road 6 in Orono and has been operating since 1983. The park officially opened to the public in 1985. What started out as a professional hobby has evolved into a prominent zoological park. Jungle Cat World's stated mission is to protect and conserve the natural world, offering a range of wildlife education programs and engaging experiences to the public. For years the Park has been a widely -known Clarington attraction. 1.3 CAZA is a private charitable organization that recognizes zoos and aquariums for their high standards of animal care and commitment to conservation of animals and quality education. CAZA sets standards that must be met by zoological facilities in order to obtain accreditation. The accreditation process involves annual on-site inspections and identifying and implementing best practices in animal welfare. 1.4 By 1989, Jungle Cat World was fully accredited by CAZA and it maintained its membership in good standing until last year. 1.5 Jungle Cat World also obtained, and currently possesses, several other memberships and accreditations including the International Species Information System (ISIS), American Association of Zoo Keepers, and Ontario Camps Association. Each of these organizations focuses on delivering professionalism, safety, education and animal care of the highest standard. 1.6 In 2018, CAZA changed their Accreditation Standards, making it mandatory for its member institutions to provide an onsite facility/room used for the examination, treatment and isolation of animals, and to provide a minimum of one scheduled on-site visit every two weeks by their consulting veterinarian. The mandatory facility/room is required to be adequately furnished to accommodate such examinations/treatments/isolations. Members of CAZA are required to meet all standards in order to maintain or receive accreditation. 93 Municipality of Clarington Resort CLD -013-19 Page 3 1.7 To suitably meet the CAZA standard, a significant investment to build the facility/room and acquire the furnishings to accommodate their diverse animal collection places a significant financial burden on Jungle Cat World. In the best interest of the park and financial stability, Jungle Cat World decided to forgo their CAZA accreditation as the standards mentioned above would not be met. 1.8 As CAZA has evolved over the years, and continues to evolve accreditation requirements, smaller, privately owned and operated parks cannot continue to meet these standards. In a discussion with Jungle Cat World's Program Director, Peter Klose, he verified a long standing and successful relationship with Dr. Maser at Cavan Hills Vet Clinic. No issues involving the care, examination or treatment of animals have resulted since the opening of the zoo. 1.9 Jungle Cat World has in place a series of safety standards, policies and procedures at the park. Such standards include: Code of Ethics and Conduct, Animal Escape and Unplanned Contact, Fire and Fire Safety Plan, Medical Emergency, Venomous Animals, Zoonotic Diseases, Environmental Conservation, Animals in Educational Programming, Biosafety, Animal Acquisition and Disposition, Research, Mobile Phones, Smoking, Substance Abuse, Grievances, Collection, Use and Disclosure of Personal Information, Evaluation of Educational Activities, Lost/Missing Person, Behavioural Enrichment, Animal Transport, Education Plan and Risk Management. All standards, policies and procedures for the Park reference CAZA Code of Professional Ethics and AZA (Association of Zoos and Aquariums) Code of Professional Ethics. These standards, policies and procedures were followed during Jungle Cat World's time as a CAZA Accredited member and continue to be followed. 1.10 Staff consulted with Clarington's Planning Department to determine the zoning history of the property at 3667 Concession Road 6. The zoning of the property was Special Provision "A-18" in the Consolidated Zoning By-law 1592 for The Corporation of the Township of Clarke. Special Provision "A-18" included the permitted land use for one single family detached dwelling and buildings and structures accessory thereto, a fitness centre, dog kennel, private zoo, pet cemetery, souvenir shop and snack bar. The zoning was later changed to "A-15" with the initial passing of the Zoning By-law 84-63 of the Corporation of the Town of Newcastle, on September 10, 1984 and continues to be zoned as such. The permitted uses in the "A-15" zone includes single family dwelling, fitness centre, dog kennel, animal enclosure (large and small), temporary holding areas, private zoo and campground area, the same uses as those permitted in 1979. 1.11 In 1991, Council passed By-law 91-52, a By-law regarding the regulating and keeping of animals within the Town of Newcastle, such as those found at Jungle Cat World. Section 7 of this by-law provided that the By-law exempt any area lawfully used as a zoo, pursuant to the provisions of the Town of Newcastle Zoning By-law 84-63. Orono Exotic Cat World was operating in compliance with By-law 84-63 at that time. MI Municipality of Clarington Resort CLD -013-19 Page 4 1.12 In 1993, By-law 93-161 repealed and replaced By -Law 91-52. Schedule "C" of By-law 93-161 granted an exemption to "Orono Exotic Cat World" from the requirements of the by-law. Specifically the exemption provided for the ability to keep animals identified in Schedule "A". Schedule "A" specified the animals found at Jungle Cat World, including but not limited to cougars, lions, panthers, foxes, wolves, and monkeys. 1.13 In 2012, the Exotic Animal By-law 2012-045 removed the specific exemption for Orono Exotic Cat World and instead it provided for a general exemption for premises accredited by CAZA. 2. Discussion 2.1 Jungle Cat World has been operating for over 30 years in the Municipality. Throughout those years the uses have been permitted under various animal related By-laws and applicable Zoning By-laws. 2.2 In recent years Municipal Staff are unaware of any incidents that have endangered the public or the health of the animals kept within Jungle Cat World. Further the safety procedures being followed as provided to Municipal staff remain unchanged as would be required under CAZA accreditation. 2.3 In Exotic Animal By-laws pre -dating 2012, a site specific exemption was included for Jungle Cat World. When the 2012 Exotic Animal By-law was enacted, the Bowmanville Zoo received a site specific exemption, whereas Jungle Cat World did not. Staff believe this to have been an inadvertent omission. This omission was only identified as a result of receiving the correspondence from CAZA. 2.4 Jungle Cat World has been in operation continuously for more than 30 years, and the business is a continuing permitted use on their site under the current Zoning By-law. As stated earlier in this report, there should have been a site specific exemption in 2012 when the Exotic Animal By-law was drafted. Given that Staff has not received any complaints regarding the operations of the facility, Staff believe it is appropriate for Council to consider adopting the draft amending by-law to By-law 2012-045, to include a site specific exemption for Jungle Cat World. 2.5 An element of the CAZA accreditation process is that the facility is inspected by an independent body committed to humane agencies of animal welfare, conservation, science and education through a comprehensive accreditation program and Code of Professional Ethics. The inspection element of the accreditation provides for the health and safety of the community, proper administration, and care and welfare of the animals. Whereas other organizations of which Jungle Cat World is a member, such as the American Association of Zookeepers, do not include inspections but are dedicated to professional animal care, and provides resources and information exchange for zookeepers and animal care professionals to cultivate quality animal care. The Ontario Camps Association also provides an accreditation program and includes site inspections for the first two years and then once every four years thereafter which looks to (among other aspects) ensuring a safe and nurturing environment for campers . 95 Municipality of Clarington Resort CLD -013-19 Page 5 Recognizing the obvious value of the CAZA inspections, should Council elect to amend the Exotic Animal by-law for a site specific exemption, staff will undertake annual inspections of the Jungle Cat World facility to ensure the health and safety of the community, and will ensure that evidence is provided to support quality care and wellness of their animals. 3. Housekeeping — Bowmanville Zoo 3.1 The Bowmanville Zoo is no longer in operation. Sub -Section 14 (d) of the Exotic Animal By-law (2012-045) provides a site specific exemption for the Bowmanville Zoo. It is recommended that the Exotic Animal By-law be amended to delete this site specific exemption. 4. Concurrence This report has been reviewed by the Director of Planning Services and the Municipal Solicitor who concur with the recommendations. 5. Conclusion Based on the foregoing, it is respectfully recommended that the draft amending by-law to By-law 2012-045 (Attachment 1 to this Report) be adopted to provide for a site specific exemption to the Exotic Animal By-law for Jungle Cat World. 6.

That the funds required for this project in the amount of $3,009,600.00 (Net HST Rebate) which includes the construction cost of $2,171,275.20 (Net HST Rebate) and other costs such as design, property acquision, soil testing, utility relocation, inspection, contract administration, permit fees and contingency of $838,324.80 (Net HST Rebate) be funded by the Municipality from the approved budget allocations as follows: Prospect St. Reconstruction (2019 Budget) (O'Dell St to Fourth St.) 110-32-330-83242-7401 $1,040,000.00 Prospect St. Reconstruction (2017 Budget) (utility relocations and property acquisition) 110-32-330-83242-7401 $ 150,000.00 Prospect St. and Lambs Lane Area Design (2014 Budget) 110-32-330-84242-7401 Municipal Capital Works Reserve Fund 511-00-000-00000-7418 Prospect St. Reconstruction (O'Dell St. to Fourth St.) Region of Durham Recovery 110-32-330-83242-7402 $ 106,076.09 $ 124,823.91 $1,588,700.00 4. That all interested parties listed in Report COD -008-19 and any delegations be advised of Council's decision by the Corporate Services Department. 100 Municipality of Clarington Report COD -008-19 Report Overview Page 2 To request authorization from Council to award the contract for the completion of the reconstruction of Prospect St., Second Street, and Veterans Avenue to an urban standard including underground servicing, concrete curb and gutter, new road base, and base asphalt. This project is being completed in coordination with the Region of Durham who are replacing the existing sanitary sewer and watermain as detailed in the tender document and as required by the Municipality of Clarington's Engineering Services Department. 1. Background 1.1 Tender specifications were prepared by the Engineering Services Department and CIMA and provided to the Purchasing Services Division. 1.2 Tender CL2019-10 was issued by the Purchasing Services 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. Seventeen (17) Companies downloaded the tender document. 1.3 The Tender closed April 30, 2019. 2. Analysis 2.1 Three (3) bids were received in response to the tender call. The Bids were reviewed and tabulated by the Purchasing Services Division (see Attachment 1). All submission received were deemed compliant. 2.2 The results were forwarded to the Engineering Services Department for their review and consideration. 2.3 After review and analysis of the submissions by the Engineering Services Department and the Purchasing Services Division, it was mutually agreed that the low bidder, Eagleson Construction be recommended for the award of contract CL2019-10 (see Attachment 2). 2.4 Eagleson Construction has successfully completed work for the Municipality in the past. 2.5 Based on the 2017 Budget allocation for the project as well as for continuity, cost efficiencies, and maintaining project schedule, CIMA+ will continue to provide the inspection and contract administration required for this project. It is important to have the design consultant available during construction to address any changes that may be required and to provide stamped as -constructed drawings at the completion of the project. 101 Municipality of Clarington Resort COD -008-19 Page 3 2.6 It is of mutual interest and importance to Engineering Services, the Municipality of Clarington, and its residents that the project award be reviewed, processed, and approved for the issuance of the award of the Prospect St. Reconstruction project contract expeditiously in order to grant the Contractor sufficient time to complete the complex and onerous nature of the project. This will assist in ensuring that the Municipality is provided with a high quality end product, minimize risk of cost overruns in building aspects of the project in unfavorable weather conditions, minimize risk of premature road deterioration, and minimize disruptions and project duration experienced by the Municipality's residents. 3. Financial 3.1 The funds required for this project in the amount of $3,009,600.00 (Net HST Rebate) which includes the construction cost of $2,171,275.20 (Net HST Rebate) and other costs such as design, property acquisition soil testing, utility relocation, inspection, contract administration, permit fees and contingency of $838,324.80 (Net HST Rebate) be funded by the Municipality from the approved budget allocations as follows: Prospect St. Reconstruction (2019 Budget) (O'Dell St to Fourth St.) 110-32-330-83242-7401 $1,040,000.00 Prospect St. Reconstruction (2017 Budget) (utility relocations and property acquisition) 110-32-330-83242-7401 $ 150,000.00 Prospect St. and Lambs Lane Area Design (2014 Budget) 110-32-330-84242-7401 Municipal Capital Works Reserve Fund 511-00-000-00000-7418 Prospect St. Reconstruction (O'Dell St. to Fourth St.) Region of Durham Recovery 110-32-330-83242-7402 $ 106,076.09 $ 124,823.91 $1,588,700.00 3.2 The value of the total project cost is over the allocated budget from the various funding sources and is utilizing the Municipal Capital Works Reserve Fund to make up the deficit. The deficit is attributed to the high estimated cost of the gas main relocation works that was provided by Enbridge. We anticipate that this item will come in under the estimated cost. The contract contains provisional items totaling 9.2% of the contract value plus 5.8% of construction contingency. 3.3 The use of the Municipal Capital Works Reserve Fund is appropriate given the nature of this capital project. The project is not Development Charges related and therefore excess funding must come from a non -development charges related source. 3.4 The Engineering Department has identified several projects which are anticipated to come in under budget; however as these projects are not yet finalized it is not financially prudent to reallocate these funds from said projects. Once completed, excess funds from the completed capital projects will be transferred to the appropriate reserve funds (including the Capital Works Reserve Fund) in order to replenish the reserve fund. 102 Municipality of Clarington Page 4 Report COD -008-19 4. Concurrence This report has been reviewed by the Director of Engineering Services who concurs with the recommendations. 5. Conclusion It is respectfully recommended that Eagleson Construction being the lowest compliant bid be awarded the contract for the Prospect Street Reconstruction with all work being completed in accordance to all terms, conditions, specifications and drawings of Tender CL2019-10. 6.

Report To: General Government Committee Date of Meeting: May 27, 2019 Report Number: FND-016-19 Resolution: File Number: By-law Number: Report Subject: 2018 Annual Statement for Cash In Lieu of Parkland Reserve Fund Recommendation: That Report FND-016-19 be received for information. 125 Municipality of Clarington Report FND-016-19 Report Overview Page 2 This report complies with amendments to the Planning Act, 1990 which became effective in 2016. The Smart Growth for Our Communities Act, 2015 requires reporting on Section 37 (Increased Density) and Section 42 (Conveyance of land for park purposes). This report discloses the annual activity in the Parkland Cash -in -Lieu Reserve Fund for 2018. There is nothing to report for increased density funds at this time. 1. Background 1.1 In accordance with Section 37 (Increased Density) and Section 42 (Cash -in -Lieu of Parkland) of the Planning Act the Treasurer must provide a financial statement including opening and closing balances to Council relating to cash -in -lieu of parkland monies and increased density funding. This statement must be made available to the public. 2. Section 42 (Conveyance of land for park purposes) 2.1 Under section 42 of the Planning Act, a municipality may require, as a condition of development, that land be conveyed to the municipality for park or other public recreational purposes. In certain circumstances, Council may require a payment in lieu of land dedication, to the value of the land otherwise required to be conveyed. 2.2 These funds must be held in a special account (Reserve Fund), allocated interest and spent only for the acquisition of land to be used for park or other recreational purposes including the erection, improvement or repair of buildings and the acquisition of machinery, particular to park purposes. 2.3 Attachment #1 details the Statement of the Treasurer, in compliance with the Act. 3. Section 37 (Increased Density) 3.1 Clarington does not currently have a program set up for Section 37; therefore an annual statement is not required. The Official Plan has a section on "community benefits" (Section 37) but Clarington does not have a market that would make this provision useful at this time. The Official Plan provision is in place to allow Clarington to consider this opportunity in the future. As a result, there is no Statement of the Treasurer required. 3.2 Proposed changes under Bill 108 may result in certain items which are currently recovered under development charges (parks, libraries, arts, recreation facilities) to be charged through a Community Benefit Charge. At the date of writing, the financial impact is not determinable as significant details on this charge are pending regulations which are not publicly available. 126 Municipality of Clarington Page 3 Resort FND-016-19 4. Concurrence 4.1 Not Applicable 5. Conclusion 5.1 It is respectfully recommended that this report, as required by Section 42 of the Planning Act, 1990 be received for information and be made available to the public by posting on the Municipality's website. 6.

Andy Brown will be in attendance at the May 27th meeting and will be speaking to this matter, along with some of his neighbours. I have spoken with the Owner and understand his views are reflective of many other residents on Cedar Crest Beach Road. I have also reviewed the relevant documents and considered Resolution #38 regarding the Port Darlington Shoreline Hazard Study (the "Resolution") from Central Lake Ontario Conservation ("CLOCA") as outlined in their letter to Ms. Anne Greentree dated, April 23, 2019. It is my understanding that the Resolution is before the Committee on May 27, 2019, for consideration. Concerns Upon review of the Resolution, from a land use planning perspective, the items of most concern to the Owner are 2 and 4. These items, if approved by the Committee, will not be in the public interest and does not represent good land use planning. CLOCA staff prepared a report dated March 19, 2019 to CLOCA Board members entitled, Port Darlington Shoreline Hazard Study ("CLOCA staff report") which provided recommendations that formed the basis of the Resolution. The findings and conclusions of the CLOCA staff report are based on misleading information and the Owner has serious issues with this report as discussed below. The Owner has attended, along with other residents, all public/community meetings and made their concerns known. However, the concerns have not been considered and addressed. Resolution item 2 - states that the amendments to the CLOCA Policy and Procedural Document for Regulation and Plan review contained in Appendix 4 be recommended for adoption following approval of flood mitigation as outlined in #5. Item #5 states that the CLOCA Board of Directors recommends that the Council of the Municipality of Clarington consider the options to improve safe access along municipal road in the Port Darlington area as part of capital planning and budgeting and that the implementing road works be constructed where feasible and appropriate. The policies in Appendix 4 are extremely onerous and prevent the residents from any future modifications to their properties. This is an unfair proposal to the residents, particularly the fact that their properties when purchased and currently are zoned for their residential uses. Restricting them even more than the current restrictions on future alterations to their property is unfair and unjust and not in the public interest. The current policies in the CLOCA Policy and Procedural Document for Regulation and Plan review already provides restrictive conditions for development on these properties. There appears to be no other area specific policies in this document. Resolution item 4 - states that the CLOCA Board of Directors Requests that the Municipality of Clarington implement the Clarington Official Plan Regulatory Shoreline Policies, as amended by Official Plan Amendment 107, and the CLOCA Policy and Procedural Document for Regulation and Plan Review, through a Zoning By-law enacted under the Planning Act. It is our position that the CLOCA staff report and the background reports are either flawed or have been misrepresented and as such, provides misleading information. As well, the CLOCA staff report does not address the residents initial request to study and make recommendations on mitigation measures to address the issue of shoreline erosion. As such, to adopt the Resolution, particularly items 2 and 4 would be premature and should not be considered until such time that comments and information by the residents to correct and update the reports have been considered by CLOCA. With respect to Resolution item #4, if a zoning by-law is still to be initiated, only after all comments by the residents have been considered and addressed, the residents requests that sufficient notice be given to them in order to participate in the process and make appropriate comments as prescribed by the Planning Act. Background and Reports The Municipality of Clarington Council passed a resolution on July 12, 2017 acknowledging the erosion in the Cedar Crest Beach area and that it needed to be addressed urgently. The residents of the community requested the Municipality to help find and implement a solution to mitigate shoreline erosion and promote beach restoration. It was resolved that the Municipality request the federal and provincial government, and CLOCA to work together to develop an entire waterfront plan including the Port Darlington channel, and the beach waterfront, and work towards a cost sharing agreement for the study and work. As a result of the July 2017 Council resolution, numerous reports were prepared including a report by W.F. Baird & Associates Coastal Engineers Ltd. dated, October 5, 2018, entitled, Port Darlington Shore Protection Concepts (the "Baird report"). This report was prepared for CLOCA. The Baird report identifies impacts by the St. Marys piers: 1) interruption of sediment supply from the shorelines west side of the piers (approximately 2,000 m3/year as evident from formation of the fillet beach on the west side of the piers); 2) reversal of longshore transport along the shoreline immediately east of the piers (as evident from formation of the fillet beach on the east side of the piers); and 3) loss of sediment supply from the shoreline protected by the St. Marys piers. Having identified these impacts, CLOCA has not suggested or recommended mitigation measures required by St. Marys Cement. Four concepts were developed to address shoreline erosion and beach enhancement as directed in Council's 2017 resolution and was the residents of the community's request. Concepts 1 to 3 are integrated approaches that include development of a beach to protect the shoreline from erosion and construction of jetties at the mouth of Westside Creek and the flood drainage channel to impede sand bars from forming and obstructing flow. Concept 4 is a traditional armourstone revetment; it does not include jetties to impede sand bar formation at the channels. Concept 3 is the residents preferred concept, which they have expressed to CLOCA. This concept provides for two jetties constructed at the mouth of Westside Creek to impede sand bars from forming at the creek mouth and obstructing flow. A jetty would also be constructed on the east side of the flood drainage channel located at the west end of the study shoreline to mitigate bar formation at the channel mouth. The Baird report states that this concept provides the most protection against erosion and provides some reduction in flooding due to wave uprush from Lake Ontario and that it provides a large beach amenity. However, this option is the most costly. Another report entitled, The Port Darlington Community Shoreline Management Plan: Reporting on Flooding, prepared by CLOCA was also prepared. The analysis and modeling appear to be flawed and the data presented is misleading. The modeling is based on old data and does not reflect existing conditions. This report should be re-examined with up-to-date data and discussions with the residents to incorporate realistic scenarios. The CLOCA staff report summarizes the above referenced reports. It acknowledges the 4 options presented in the Baird report and notes that shoreline alternatives would be considerable. To address funding options, the CLOCA staff report states that in 2018, Clarington staff and CLOCA staff collaborated on the submission of an Expression of Interest application under the National Disaster Mitigation Project to Infrastructure Canada for funding under the program. The application was denied for the first intake of funding into the program. Infrastructure Canada staff advised that the application will be eligible to be considered for a second intake into the program anticipated in the fall of 2019. It would be reasonable and sensible to make the submission for a second intake into the program and see if funding is granted. The CLOCA staff report states that, "the Baird report notes that the St Marys pier protrudes about 650m into the lake and potentially interrupts sediment supply from west of the pier and from the natural shoreline that is now covered by the pier." This is misleading and inaccurately references the Baird report. The Baird report, specifically states that, "this means that St. Marys piers would block any potential supply of sediment available (e.g. through bluff erosion) from the westerly shorelines. In fact, shoreline comparisons from the shoreline immediately west of the St. Marys piers conducted previously by Baird indicated a growing fillet beach since construction of the piers. Comparisons of the 2000 and 2007 shorelines indicated approximately 2,000 m3 of sand had been deposited annually in the local fillet beach immediately west of the piers." Having acknowledged the impacts from St. Marys piers, CLOCA staff does not address any mitigation measures by St. Marys Cement. Consideration needs to be taken and an analysis of the types of mitigation measures by St. Marys Cement must be conducted for a comprehensive and wholistic approach. The CLOCA staff report references on numerous occasions a voluntary Port Darlington disposition program. This is not a preferred option and with shoreline erosion protection alternatives presented in the Baird report, this program should not be considered at this time. Conclusion and Request Based on the above, the Owner is requesting not to adopt the items of Resolution#38. As well, any zoning amendment should not be considered until the concerns of the residents have been addressed. If a zoning amendment is to be initiated, only after issues from the residents have been addressed, the residents request sufficient notice in order to be able to adequately participate in the process as prescribed by the Planning Act.
