DELEGATIONS
Ben Chartier,General Manager,Handi Transit Inc., advised Council that he was
appointed to this position in November to replace the previous General Manager.
He indicated that Handi Transit was established in 1974 to provide transportation
services to physically challenged people within the Durham Region. This service
was extended to Clarington in 1981. Handi Transit,which operates with a staff of
21 individuals, is governed by a board of directors consisting of 10 members.
Nominal fares are collected from passengers and funding is received from the
province. The service has experienced a dramatic increase in Clarington and is
still receiving requests for extended service. Mr. Chartier answered questions of
Council with respect to the operation.
t
Peter Messer Johnson, 31 Wrenn Blvd., Bowmanville,L1C 4N1, addressed
Council with respect to on-street parking. He indicated that Section 6 of the
Traffic By-law states that on-street parking is not permitted for longer than three
t hours unless signed to this end. He requested that the Traffic By-law be
amended to allow for on-street parking to be available by purchasing a permit.
Kelvin Whalen advised prior to the meeting that he would not be in attendance.
Hugh Neill, 2111 Prestonvale Road, Courtice,LIE 252, commented to Council on
=w the recommendations contained in the Traffic Study Report presented by Totten
Sims Hubicki Associates on March 20, 1995. He stated that if the municipality
follows the recommendations of the report, and re-designates Prestonvale Road
from a local road, places a secondary school directly across the road from his
house, and allows high density development within 300 metres of his home and a
mall within 200 metres of his home, the property value will decrease and the
lifestyle quality will diminish. He stated that it hardly seems reasonable or fair
` that residents in the neighbourhood should be inconvenienced,let alone be
inconvenienced at a financial loss, if the road pattern changes are required to
e allow developers to proceed and make financial gains.
Councillor Hannah made a declaration of interest with respect to the delegation
of Mr. George West; vacated his chair and refrained from discussion and voting
on the subject matter. In his address Mr. West will be addressing Phair Avenue
which is the area in which Councillor Hannah resides.
Council Minutes - 3 - March 27, 1995
DELEGATIONS
George West, 2640 Prestonvale Road, Courtice,LlE 2R9, requested that
Prestonvale Road remain a local road. He gave a history of the area wherein he
stated that Phair Avenue had been barricaded and Claret Road misaligned and
never completed. He indicated that all of the traffic coming from the Whitecliffe
Subdivision had to exit on to Prestonvale Road thereby increasing the traffic in
that area. It is now recommended in the Totten Sims Hubicki report that
Prestonvale Road be upgraded to an arterial road. Mr. West feels this is
depriving residents of 30 feet of frontage on their property and he would like to
see Claret Road opened up.
John Hawryszko, 2588 Prestonvale Road, Courtice,L1E 1W1, stated that
Prestonvale Road was designated as a local road by Council and he wishes to see
this designation retained.
Robert Cowle,2682 Prestonvale Road, Courtice,L1E 2R9, addressed Council
with respect to the Courtice Area Transportation/Traffic Study which states
that Prestonvale Road is to be designated as a Type C Arterial Road to reflect
intended and actual use. For five years Robert Adams Drive was barricaded.
Glenabbey Drive does not join up with Sandringham yet nor does Claret link up
with Robert Adams. The residents in the area have no choice but to use
Prestonvale Road. It appears to Mr. Cowle that everything has been done to
force traffic onto Prestonvale Road, including a municipal sign that was erected at
the entrance of Glenabbey diverting traffic over to Prestonvale. Mr. Cowle
indicated disagreement with the traffic study report which states that the bridging
of Townline Road is not needed. If all the other road networks were completed
as they should be they would carry their own traffic and Prestonvale Road would
not be needed as an arterial road.
Rob Whitehead,2406 Prestonvale Road, Courtice,L1E 352, concurred with all of
the comments Council heard earlier with respect to Prestonvale Road and
requested that the road remain a local road.

CURATOR'S REPORT
Copies of the Museum's brochure for 1995 and free admission passes to
the board members to be given out at their discretion. Copies of
"Currently", from the OMA, and the "OHS Balletin" for Board Members.
There was no good news for culture from the recent federal budget.
The Department of Canadian Heritage will receive cuts totalling $676
million over three years. Cuts to the department for this year are
$220 million and are spread over most of the Department's activities
including national museums, Parks Canada, cultural industries, sports,
etc.
There have been no further cuts to the Museums Assistance Program
(MAP), but also no increases. This does not affect cuts to MAP
Q announced by the previous government of just over one million dollars.
There are also cuts to other major programs. Federal spending on
culture will decrease by $9.8 billion in total .
Upcoming training initiatives which Board Members might be interested
in attending. These incude:
Black Creek Pioneer Village workshops on Heritage Gardens
Thursday June 1st.
OMA Education Colloquium on the changes in the education
e
system as a result of the introduction of The Common
3
Curriculum
Contemporary Issues in Human Resources at the ROM
Museums Matter at the ROM
Heritage Today in Ontario as part of the OMA's museum
deveIopment.
Unresolved matters of old business regarding the museum building.
1. Fainting - The paint on the exterior of the building is
continuing to peel and crack. Fred Horvath of Community
Services suggested conducting test patches to determine the
best method for staining or painting the Museum's exterior.
At the time this matter was discussed Fred favoured a stain
that gives the appearance of! paint.
2. Doors - several of the wooden doors on the Museum are in
need of replacement due to cracking or warping of the wood.
3. Heating - The hanging electric heater for the shed is
very expensive to operate. A hanging gas heater would be
less expensive.
HOUSE PROPOSAL
Mark reviewed for the Board the offer from Sonny 9 Youn to donate a
pre-confederation farm house to the Museum. Since the time of the
offer Marl: has been examining requirements for the project including
moving the house to the Museum site.
A proposal for a new storage building was under consideration by the
previous board prior to the offer of the house from Mr. Young. The
proposed storage building was to be a modern building with a period
exterior providing 3040 sq. ft. of space. The house would occupy 688
sq. ft. and provide 1120 sq. ft. of spare on two levels.
The cost of the restoration of the house has not been completed as of
this time but would include the cost of insulation, electrical ,
heating, and drywall . There are a number of other hidden costs such
as the cost of extending the phone lines, alarm system, gas lines,
interior finishes, and moving the house.
Neither one of the proposed buildings alone, would be sufficient for
storage of the collection. The proposals, though they would meet the
Museum's short term needs, would leave insufficient space for the
growth of the collection.
Ann raised concern over the cost estimate of the proposed Barn.
Donna has confirmed that the cost estimate is correct as presented.
Mark noted that the exterior finish of Board and Batten for the barn
is not costed in and could be paid for through fund raising.
r
Ann asked Mr. Young about the cost of moving the house to the site.
He stated that he did not have a firm estimate of the cost.
David expressed concern about the cost of operations of an expanded
museum and the various options that were proposed.
Angela stated that she would find it more aesthetically pleasing to
enter an elder building than a modern facility.
Mark expressed concerns about the proposed options with regards to
storage, display, preparation, workshop, programming, access, archi-
ves, conservation, and administration space as part of the standards
for museum operations outlined by the Ministry of Culture, Tourism,
and Recreation and future impacts on current staffing.
Ann and David expressed concerns regarding the Capital and operating
costs of expansion. Both Ann, and David indicated that Council may
not be receptive to increases in the Operating Costs of the Museum.
Donald stated that to provide for the future of the community Council
must expect budget increases to occur in the future. Provision of
services must be looked at being maintained. He proposed raising
funds over a four year period to build and restore the barn and
house.
Mark requested that a committee look into the building proposals
further.
Ann questioned the need for a committee of the board.
Brian supported Mark's request and volunteered as Chair of the
building committee, to pursue this matter.
Donna also volunteered to help Brian on the committee to assist in
preparing the proposal further.
OTHER MATTERS/NEW BUSINESS
None
**95-21** Moved by Donald, Seconded by Brian that the next meeting of
the Board of Directors be held on Tuesday April 4, 1995 at
7:00 pm. at the Armories in Orono.
Ann expressed her concern that it is difficult for the
Council representatives to attend meetings on Tuesdays as
other meetings are frequently scheduled at that time. Anti
finds that Mondays would be more convenient.

Dear Head of Council :
SUBJECT: Local Government Disclosure of Interest Act
I am writing to address concerns that have been raised
about the open local government provisions of Bill 163 ,
which will be proclaimed on April 15, 1995 . Before I
respond in detail to some of those concerns, I want to
announce the formation of a Guidelines Committee which
will play a critical role in ensuring that the
enforcement system is workable and fair to local
government representatives.
Regulations and guidelines are being developed as the
Act is proclaimed to address enforcement issues . The
Committee will work with ministry staff to provide
advice to me on enforcement and implementation concerns
including recommendations for dealing with frivolous
and vexatious complaints. It is in everyone' s interest
to keep these kinds of complaints out of the court
system and I plan to do everything possible to prevent
unwarranted- legal action.
I also expect recommendations from the Committee on
procedural matters. One issue which has been raised
with me is the notification of local government
representatives when a complaint is lodged against
them. Local members will be notified. I would like
the Committee' s advice on the best way to ensure this
takes place in an efficient and reliable manner.

Head of Council
The Committee will begin its work shortly. I intend to
have a broad-based committee, comprising two
representatives from the school boards, two members
from municipalities, two AMO representatives and one
other Committee member representing the interests of
local boards . I have recently approached AMO to work
with the Ministry on the guidelines and regulations .
This offer was rejected by the Association, though it
is my hope that it will be reconsidered.
I will provide more information on the
Committee
structure when the membership is finalized.
While the guidelines and regulations will add ress some
of your concerns, I would like to take this opportunity
to answer a number of other concerns that have been raised. Specifically, I would like to respond to
comparisons that have been made between the Local
Government Disclosure of Interest Act, which will be
proclaimed April 15, and the new Members'
Act . Integrity
As you know, the Local Government Disclosure of
Interest Act was drafted in response to problems with
the existing legislation, in particular the cost to the
private individual to enforce. It was drafted with the
help of a Consultation Committee including Association
of Municipalities of Ontario (AMO) and other local
government representatives as well as representatives
of the public, the media and the academic and legal
communities. The draft legislation was refined by
municipal and local board representatives. The public
was consulted extensively over a four-year period, and
the resulting legislation addresses concerns that were
raised loud and clear .during that consultation.
/3
3 -
Head of Council
This legislation became even more important when the
government moved to reform Ontario' s land-use planning
system. Municipalities are being given more
responsibility for land development decisions, and that
increased responsibility makes it essential that local
accountability also be strengthened.
While there are obvious differences between the
Members' Integrity Act and the Local Government
Disclosure of Interest Act, the two acts are tailored
to meet the unique needs of the systems of government
to which they apply.
There are significant differences between the ways the
two levels of government operate. At the provincial
level there is a 130-member legislature, including an
official opposition. The very nature of the
parliamentary system creates checks and balances that
do not necessarily exist in .a council that may have as
few as five members, no political parties and no
official opposition. So it should not surprise anyone
that, although the objective is the same for the two
acts, the rules needed to reach that objective are
different.
It has been suggested that these differences make the
local government legislation more onerous and .that the
two pieces of legislation should be harmonized. In
fact, many aspects of the Members' Integrity Act are
more onerous . For example, provincial members are
prohibited from having an interest in a government
contract and Cabinet Ministers must divest themselves
of certain assets . I do not believe that local members
would welcome such requirements for themselves .
Let me respond
directly to some of the specific issues
that have been raised.

Head of Council
I have been asked why MPPs are not required to make a
written disclosure of pecuniary interest. The purpose
of such a written disclosure is to provide a permanent
record of the. member' s explanation. In the
Legislature, the member' s oral disclosure is captured
verbatim by Hansard, which becomes the permanent
record. I
Some people have expressed concerns about the section
of the Local Government Disclosure of Interest Act that
prevents anyone from representing a local government
member on a matter before the council or board. That
aspect of the law has been part of local government
legislation since 1972 , and nobody identified it as an
issue during consultation.
Concerns have also been raised about the fact .that MPPs
are given the right to make private disclosure i
statements from which the Integrity Commissioner
prepares an edited public version. In fact, an MPP' s
private disclosure statement contains far more
information than local government members are required
to provide. The MPP' s edited public statement contains
essentially the same information as the local
government member' s public statement.
Some people have asked why provincial members are not
required to have their public disclosure statements
available at their constituency office. In both cases,
the disclosure statements are filed with the clerk of
the body on which they serve. Although MPPs'
disclosure statements will be physically located in
Toronto, it is my understanding that the Clerk of the
Legislature will send one by mail to anyone who asks
for it .

Head of Council
I have been asked why Integrity the Inte rit Commissioner
enforces the Members' Integrity Act while the Local
Government Disclosure of Interest Act is ultimately
enforced by the courts . The answer lies in the history
of the two pieces of legislation. Local government
enforcement has always been handled by the courts, and
our consultation confirmed that that was appropriate.
At the provincial level, party politics and party
discipline make peer review a more publicly acceptable
enforcement mechanism.
Concerns have been raised about other aspects of
enforcement as well, including penalties and available
defences. It is important to note that the Local
Government Disclosure of Interest Act gives more
discretion to the court than did the old Municipal
Conflict of Interest Act in that it allows for a wider
range of penalties, so the court can make the penalty
fit the offence. This wider range of penalties allowed
us to eliminate the saving provisions in the Local
Government Disclosure of Interest Act, reflecting
public demand. However, I am confident that local
government members will continue to be able to obtain
insurance.
The Act also g ives considerable discretion to the
Commissioner. The Commissioner will investigate
alleged contraventions of the Act and. determine if
court action is warranted. In this way, the
Commissioner will act as a clearing house, proceeding
to court only when it would be in the public interest
to do so. Unfounded charges and frivolous and
vexatious complaints will not be pursued.
It is not possible, in a letter, to answer all the
concerns that have been raised. A detailed comparison
between the two Acts has been prepared by Ministry
staff and is available through the Ministry' s Regional
Offices . If you wish more information on the
differences between the two acts, and the reasons for
those differences, please feel free to call and ask for
a copy.

misunderstandings that have developed around the
government' s new open local government legislation.
The legislation is the result of considerable
consultation with the public and local government
representatives, and I believe it is good, workable
legislation that will help restore people' s confidence
in their local governments. If you have further
questions about the open local government legislation,
please contact your local Ministry of Municipal Affairs
Regional Office.
Sincerely,
Ed Philip

Dear. Head of Council:
SUBJECT: Open .meeting provisions Bill 163
I am writing to address some misunderstandings that have
arisen about the open meeting provisions of Bill 163, the
government's open. local government and planning reform
legislation. As .you know, . the open meeting provisions
were proclaimed January 1
I have been asked whether -one or two councillors. will be *
allowed to meet with a ratepayer -in private. I have. been
asked whether-'a group .of -councillors talking at a social . .
function ..constitutes a meeting,' or whether informal
meetings between . two..or 'three .councillors will be against
the -law. I think it is important first. and foremost that
we all understand that .B ll 163 does not. ask us- to -abandon .
common sense.
Let. me be clear about why the open meeting •provisions. were
necessary, and what it is that they have been designed to
prevent For some- time now, members of :the public have*,
expressed. concern. that councils. were using provisions
allowing 'the closing of committee meetings as a' way'to
exclude..'the public.*and make decisions behind closed doors..
Too often, in..the middle of debate, councils had declared
"we are moving to committee '-of the whole" and continued
the meeting without the public
As well, municipalities are .being given new
responsibilities..as part of• the government's reform of.
Ontario's planning system. It is ' important that the
public be able to have access to the entire decision
making process, • including ,the committee :meetings -where'. the
issues are developed' as well' as the council 'meetings where
the recommendations are ;reviewed and decided upon.. As a
result, Bill 163 made'all committee meetings subject to.
the .same openness provisions as regular council meetings.
However, Bill 163 also recognized that some issues,' such
as personnel and litigation, may need to be exempted from
the - openness. provisions.,

I believe the legislation is reasonable and fair; it is•
important that we use common sense when we apply the new

and what has not.

Dear fellow Ontarian,
You and I know that developing a budget in the 1990s is a very difficult task. In Ontario, that
has meant tough, sometimes painful decisions-- but we are meeting the challenge In a fair, balanced
way. Ontario recognized that the federal government faced a similar challenge in drafting its 1995
budget. We expected Ottawa to meet it In a way that was fair and balanced. But the budget Paul Martin
released on February 27 Is neither.
It is unfair to the people of Ontario, forcing them to shoulder far more than their share I of cuts to
major transfers, which support health, higher educa.tion, child care and social assistance in Ontario. it
locks in discrimination against the taxpayers of this province begun by the Mulroney government—
despite assurances from Mr. Martin that Ottawa would address the effects of that dis(Arnination.
And it Is unbalanced because it Is so disproportionately aimed against programs that people
need. Almost hag of the spending cuts come from major federal transfers, which make up less than a
sixth of federal program spending.
Make no mistake:these cuts are severe. They will have a significant Impact on funding
available for the programs we deliver—programs the people of this province count on.
In this budget, Mr. Martin appears to deliberately overstate the fiscal gap the'federal
government faces and sets aside unnecessarily high mu"Illion dollar*contingency reserves. Those
reserves exceed the combined reductions In federal support for health, education, child care and social
services. This goes beyond fiscal prudence, possibly to allow the federal government to come In under
its stated deficit targets. Such tactics may be politically astute, but in the face of the cuts required to
sustain these assumptions and reserves, they are questionable at best.
Don't conclude, however, that the fight Is over. Many Ontarians are still unaware of the extent
of this budget's cuts. Their voices have yet to be heard In this debate. Arid there are still negotiations to
take place between the federal government and the provinces over the eventual shape of the new
federal transfer program in 1997-98. Ontario's position at those negotiations must be strong, and that
strength will depend in part on the voices of key stakeholders like you.
What is at risk is the very Ontario we know and value: a compassionate, caring province that
invests in its people and its future. I hope you agree with the importance of defending that kind of
Ontario and opposing the-measures that place it In danger.
Sincerely,
.?�e7

The federal government-has reduced its deficit largely by
cutting transfers to the provinces that help them pay for
health, post-secondary education, child care and social
services. Especially hard hit is Ontario,which will bear 54%
of the cost, more than all other provinces combined.
The federal government's own budget table, above, shows
that Ontario's transfers will drop by$877 million from their
current levels by 1996-97. What the table does not show is
that current funding already reflects years of unfairness.
Taken together, federal transfer cuts announced or
reconfirmed in the 1995 budget mean a total loss to Ontario
of$3.6 billion over the next three years. Ontarians will feel
the impact in services and lost growth.

The federal budget's growth projection of only 2.5%for the
national economy in 1996 is too slow to reduce the number of
people out of work A projection that low implies that federal
monetary policy will remain unchanged, despite low inflation and
extremely high real interest rates. Monetary policy that allowed
rates to fall in the longer term would encourage businesses to
increase investments that create jobs. This is especially crucial
when budget measures are taking money out of the economy.
Commenting on the federal budget, an economic analysis by the
Institute of Policy Analysis at the University of Toronto points
out that,as long as "fiscal policy. . . is concentrating on spending
cuts" in order to reduce the deficit, the resulting negative effects
on the economy"can and should be largely offset by appropriate
monetary policy."
Less restrictive monetary policy would help to reduce public-
sector deficits by getting people back to work, increasing the
economy's output. This could boost national income by as much
as $30 to$40 billion, improving government tax revenues and
helping to pay for public services.

THE 1995 FEDERAL-BUDGET.- IMPACT ON ONTARIO
Aboriginal programs: In 1994-95, only 17 per cent of the
spending for the federal Department of Indian and Northern
Affairs was in Ontario, although 24 per cent of the Canadian
Aboriginal population live here. Federal support for Native
Friendship Centres,Aboriginal Women's organizations and
traditional Aboriginal language programs will be reduced.
A balanced alternative
IT WASN'T THAT LONG AGO THAT ONTAMO faced its own severe
fiscal difficulties, brought on by the toughest recession since the
Great Depression and made worse through federal discrimination
against the province. Tough choices were necessary, and tough
choices were made.
But the choices weren't only tough, they were balanced. The
burden was shared broadly, in all sectors. We saved as many as
40,000 jobs, and compensated for salary reductions with time off,
Equally important is the three-year window Ontario provided to
allow the provincial government and our partners in the broader
public sector to find permanent savings through greater efficiency.
The result is a more secure future for the province, without mass
layoffs and without gutting the services people in Ontario value so
highly.
The point isn't that Ottawa should follow the exact route Ontario
took But dearly, there are alternatives. If a government is creative
and determined enough to protect j6bs and defend key services,
then it can work with employers,workers and the community to
find solutions.
We're determined to work with our partners to find solutions to
the severe cutbacks imposed on this province. And we're
determined to keep pressing the federal government to ensure
Ontario taxpayers and Ontario services get their fair share.

March 18, 1995
Your Worship and members of Council,
Having looked through the information from your Council Meeting of March 13,
1995, which you kindly provide me with on a regular basis, I feel under some
obligation to write to you over a letter sent to you from Michael D. Harris MPP
Leader of the Progressive Conservative Party of Ontario. I had always been of the
opinion that partizan politics were best left out of municipal politics but it seems as
if others have different ideas on that subject, which forces my reply.
Let me start off by saying that Ontario farmers through their farm organizations, and
in particular through the President of the Ontario Federation of Agricultural, have
publicly said that the present minister of Agriculture the Honourable Elmer
Buchanan is the finest Minister of Agriculture there has ever been in Ontario.
This is in the public record for anyone to examine, it isn't political rhetoric.
I have also read the Common Sense Revolution as composed by the Ontario
Conservative Party and quoted in the letter sent to council, from beginning to end.
I have found it rather revealing that at no time is even the word AGRICULTURE
ever mentioned in that document. I do see reference being made to 20% cuts in all
non-essential programs, and since agriculture isn't listed as one of those essential
programs I would presume that its up for a 20% cut in programs.
Also, the document from the Ontario Progressive Conservative Party doesn't once
mention any effects on agriculture coming from Bill 91. But let me enlighten you
all on that. Our government believes that the right to bargain collectively should be
available to as many workers as possible. The consensus reached by the Agriculture
Labour Relations task force, which had the broad support in the agriculture
communities, recognized the importance of extending this right to farm workers. In
every other province, agriculture workers have had the right to organize for some
time.

11 Queen's Park Office:25 Grosvenor Sheet, I I th Floor,Toronto,Ontario M7A 1 Y6 Tel:(416)325-4934 Fax:(416)314-3363 '�"'
The most obvious question to be asked is, will farm workers have the right to strike,
and the answer is NO. The Task Force proposed legislation that provides for an
absolute prohibition on strike action or lock-outs. It should also be noted that the legislation has the support of 35 major farm organizations in the province.
Above all perhaps, the legislation is designed to ensure the continuity of the family
farm by including a provision that collective agreements cannot prevent family
members from working on their farm.
In his letter to you Mr. Harris talks about reducing taxes et-al. He said that he would
freeze Ontario Hydro rates for five years. We have already done this. He says he
will eliminate the Employer Health Tax for small business. What he doesn't
mention is the introduction of a "health levy" which will place the burden of the
present Employer Heath Tax on the backs of the people, not only those who are still
working but including the retired seniors.
The Common Sense Revolution is not about job creation or deficit reduction.
They are assumed to take care of themselves. This document is all about shifting
income within society, from one group to another. The main beneficiaries of the
plan will be the rich, and that should't come to you as any surprise.
Surprisingly, the one thing the Harris Common Sense Revolution doesn't promise
is an overall improvement in living standards. Why not I ask? because it will have
almost no impact on the economy, his own figures show it won't raise productivity
and it wont boost Ontario's growth rate. There isn't any doubt at all that this
"common sense" idea will take from the poor and give to the rich, which perhaps is
what his idea of common sense is.
On one final note of particular interest to municipal councils is the promise by Mr.
Harris to cut some programs by 20% and to cut the public service by 15%.
If as he says he won't touch education, police of health care, that leaves 13,000 that
have to be cut. This means he would have to gut all provincial support for
agriculture and rural Ontario, environmental protection, protection of our natural
resources, support for hundreds of businesses and industries, not to mention
women, labour, aboriginal communities, tenants and the poor. If people in fact do
get their income tax reduced under his plan, I suspect that all of that and more will
be needed to pay for the increases in municipal taxes that will surely happen with
the removal of so many provincial services.

CRTC ENCOURAGES PRIVATE, LOCAL TELEVISION BROADCASTERS
TO INCREASE CANADIAN ENTERTAINMENT PROGRAMMING
IL OTTAWA/HULL — The CRTC today introduced a flexible policy approach with an
emphasis on promoting Canadian entertainment programming as it renewed licences for private,
English-language television stations in B.C., Southern Ontario and Quebec. The Commission has also
introduced more stringent rules for closed captioning (Public Notice CRTC 1995-48). Most licences
were renewed for seven years from September 1, 1995 to August 31, 2002, but three broadcasters
were given shorter licence terms (Decisions CRTC 95-103, 95-104 and 95-106). These decisions
follow CRTC public hearings held last fall in Vancouver, Toronto and Montreal.
"Since the stations' licences were last renewed in 1989, the Canadian broadcasting
environment has undergone tremendous change," said CRTC Chairman Keith Spicer. "In coming
years, local broadcasters will be challenged by an increasing number of viewing options available to
consumers. To help them adapt to changing circumstances while promoting Canadian programming,
the Commission has adopted a more flexible policy approach to guide the operations of private,
English-language television stations over the next five to seven years."
"Local television stations are the window through which most Canadians see the world
and themselves. While these stations do an admirable job in news and public affairs, Canadian
entertainment programming is still significantly underrepresented. As an example, only 25% of all
English-language entertainment programming scheduled in the evening is Canadian," Mr. Spicer
noted. "The Commission believes that the broadcast of Canadian entertainment programs should be
considerably increased. We think it is reasonable that, by the end of their new licence terms, private
stations schedule at least seven hours per week of this essential programming during prime-time
viewing hours."

'elecommunications Commission telecommunications canadiennes

"In addition, local television stations still have the special responsibility to offer
programming that reflects the particular interests and concerns of the communities they are licensed to
serve," Mr. Spicer added. "Since 23% of Canadian households do not have access to cable, or
choose not to subscribe, and therefore rely on over-the-air television service, the Commission also ,
insists that local stations continue to broadcast a diversity of programming, in particular high-quality
Canadian programs. Finally, it is important that all citizens, including hard of hearing persons, most
of whom are unable to hear radio broadcasts, be able to receive television service in a form that is
comprehensible to them."
Focus on local audiences
The CRTC today granted seven-year licence terms for the following private, local
television stations: CHCH-TV Hamilton; CITY-TV Toronto; the CTV's affiliate CFTO-TV Toronto
and its Woodstock transmitter; and the CTV's Montreal affiliate CFCF-TV.
Two licensees did not fully meet their requirement for local reflection and, as a result,
were given shorter licence terms. Licences for CKVU-TV Vancouver and for CKWS-TV Kingston
and its Brighton and Prescott transmitters were renewed for five and four years respectively. Both
licensees are expected to broadcast a specified minimum number of hours per week of original, local
news during their new licence terms.
Finally, the licence for CKVR-TV Barrie and its Parry Sound and Huntsville
transmitters was renewed for five years. In September 1994, the CRTC approved CKVR-TV's
disaffiliation from the CBC television network and, because of this change in status, the Commission
wishes to closely monitor the licensee's performance in maintaining the primary focus on the Barrie,
Parry Sound and Huntsville audiences.
fi
A new option for Canadian programming requirements
Larger broadcasters are currently required, by condition of licence, to meet minimum
levels of expenditure on Canadian programming every year. Following the Commission's new policy
approach introduced today, licensees of most private English-language television stations earning over
$10 million in annual advertising revenues and network payments may now choose between two
- more -
3
options: continue with a condition of licence on Canadian programming expenditures; or adhere to a
condition of licence requiring the licensee to broadcast a specific number of hours per week of
Canadian entertainment programming — i.e. drama, music and variety — between 6:00 p.m. and
midnight.
Licensees must advise the Commission which option they have chosen before
September 1, 1995. The chosen option will be the condition of licence in effect throughout the new
licence term.
Stations earning.$10 million or less annually are still expected to adhere to the current
formula regarding Canadian program expenditures.
Service to the deaf and hard of hearing
Given decreasing captioning costs and new technologies, the Commission believes that
kmost broadcasters should be able to provide full programming service to deaf and hard of hearing
persons in the near future.
k,
The Commission thus requires local stations earning more than $10 million a year to
ILI
caption all local news programming, including live segments, from September 1, 1998. In addition,
by the end of their licence terms, these stations must close caption at least 90% of all programming
broadcast throughout the broadcast day. Smaller stations are either expected or encouraged to achieve
the same goals before the end of their licence terms.

AL Dear Colleague: UAYORIS OFFICE
L
I am very pleased to tell you that Ontario's new land
use planning system came into effect on March 28, 1995
on proclamation of the Planning Act parts of Bill 163
and the planning-related amendments to the Municipal
Act.
After extensive consultation with people from all areas
and sectors of the province, the government has now put
in place comprehensive planning reforms. These changes
L simplify and streamline the planning and development
approvals process. The changes also aim to facilitate
economic development, create jobs, and better protect
Lthe environment.
March 28 was also the date when the government's
Comprehensive Set of Policy Statements took effect.
These statements were released in May 1994 for
information purposes. Since that time, municipalities,
planning boards, and others have had an opportunity to
familiarize themselves with the policies. A first
edition of Implementation Guidelines for the Policy
Statements has also been prepared and is now available.
The Comprehensive Set of Policy Statements includes
clear provincial priorities regarding the environment.
There are policies to protect water quality and
quantity and to protect identified natural heritage
features. There are also policies to encourage economic
development and human services planning.
Under the new system, municipal governments and
planning boards make decisions on most local planning
and development matters. The province sets broad
policy and has an enhanced role as advisor and
information provider. The Ontario Municipal Board
(OMB) adjudicates disputes. At all stages of the
process, alternate dispute resolution is encouraged.
The new planning legislation streamlines the process by
setting specific timeframes for decision-making by
municipalities, planning boards, and the province.

This is a framework for more timely decisions to be ,
made on all types of planning and development
proposals. Ongoing administrative improvements mean
"r greater internal efficiencies in municipalities, at the
y OMB, and at the Ministry of Municipal Affairs (which
retains some approval functions) .
A number of publications are available at the Ontario
Government Bookstore to assist in the understanding and
implementation of Planning Reform. An order form
listing these publications and explaining how they can
be obtained, is attached for your convenience.

NEW PANEL MEMBER APPOINTED
OTTAWA, March 30, 1996 -- Mr. Blair Seaborn, chairman of the panel reviewing
the concept for disposal of nuclear fuel waste in the Canadian Shield, is pleased
to announce the appointment of Ms. Mary Jamieson to the panel.
Ms. Jamieson is the president of Economic Development for Canadian Aboriginal
Women, a primary consultant for the Native Women's Association of Canada, and
a member of the National Aboriginal Management Board. As the owner-operator
of Native Management Services, she has completed research and policy
development contracts in the areas of employment, training, and health. In 1992,
Ms. Jamieson was a regional finalist for the Canadian Women's Entrepreneur of
the Year Award. She has experience in federal and provincial public services, at
the management level.
Ms. Jamieson replaces Ms. Maddy Howe Harper, who died in a traffic accident in
late 1994.

INVOLVEMENT OF MUNICIPALITIES IN
HUMAN RESOURCES DEVELOPMENT CANADA'S
SUMMER YOUTH SERVICE CANADA(SYSC)
THE PROGRAM
Municipalities are encouraged to participate in a new Human Resources Development
Canada summer initiative called Summer Youth Service Canada (SYSC). SYSC is
designed to create employment for youth in local communities.The benefits are clearly two
fold: youth gain meaningful assignments in their own community and the communities
receive quality service which leads to increased public awareness, local resources and/or
physical enhancement.
'The community can benefit enormously from the work of students on Summer YSC",said
Mayor Laurence Mawhinney,President of the Federation of Canadian Municipalities, "and
students can actively contribute to their own community development in this program."
_, T Summer jobs are often a students first major exposure to the world of employment.
Through summer jobs, they gain work experience, personal skills, and a sense of
accomplishment.
Summer Youth Service Canada(SYSC)will help students participate as part of a group
to acquire relevant experience through community service projects. Participants in these
projects are expected to learn personal and work-related skills through projects which are
designed to give them maximum learning,growth,and community service experience.
THE FOCUS
The projects will focus on two spec areas of activity: community development and
learning and sustainable development and the environment. Community development and
learning projects will focus on providing service to the community and increasing public
awareness of the issues. Sustainable development and environment projects target
environmental protection and conservation.Projects should offer experience to participants
which focus on planning,organization,management,and promotion.Although priority will
be given to municipalities,not-for-profit organizations and educational institutions are also
eligible to sponsor Summer Youth Service Canada projects.
THE PROCESS
Projects can be eight to ten weeks in duration.They must start no earlier than June 5 and
end no later than September 1, 1995.Participating students receive a weekly stipend and
a completion bonus. The number of participants involved in a team activity is normally
three or more.
/2

All applications will be assessed according to how well they fulfil program objectives.
Proposals must show:
a) the ability of the activities to allow participants to acquire,as part of a team, relevant
k experience through projects providing a service to their community;
b) the potential of the experience to prepare a student for future labour market
participation;
c) the benefits to be derived by the students doing these activities;and
d) the contribution the coordinator is prepared to make towards the proposed
activities.
The application deadline for project sponsors is April 28, 1995.Forms are available at your
local Human Resources Development Canada office.

FCM RECEIVES SUPPORT FOR EFFORTS
—" IN MUNICIPAL-ABORIGINAL RELATIONS
National Chief Ovide Mercredi of the Assembly of First Nations(AFN)met March
2 with FCM President, Mayor Laurence Mawhinney and members of FCM's Standing
Committee on Municipal-Aboriginal Relations. Mr. Mercredi proposed a consultative
IL
relationship between the AFN and FCM to address mutual concerns and to facilitate co-
operative arrangements between municipal and Aboriginal governments. Committee Chair
Mayor John Les noted that after several failed attempts,the FCM was pleased to discuss
shared interests with the AFN and to receive encouragement that municipal and Aboriginal
governments can be allies in pursuing a common agenda.
The following day,the Honourable Ronald A.Irwin, Minister of Indian Affairs and
Northern Development,met with FCM's Executive Committee. The Minister expressed his
belief "in the need for greater cooperation among municipal and Aboriginal
SL representatives", especially in light of the implementation of Aboriginal self-government,
"a complex matter which must be resolved in partnership with Aboriginal peoples and
through consultation with other parties".
The Minister responded to FCM's proposal to establish a Centre for Municipal-
.
OL
Aboriginal Relations by stating the Centre would provide"a good vehicle better to inform
municipal and Aboriginal representatives of the needs, priorities and initiatives of each
other's constituents",and that such a Centre"could facilitate a greater understanding and
lead to productive intergovernmental relations".
The Minister concluded by announcing that the Department of Indian Affairs and
Northern Development would contribute $200, 000 over two years, provided that the
federal contribution not exceed one third of the total budget for the Centre.
"These meetings reflect the emerging importance of municipal-Aboriginal relations
in FCM's agenda and the value of more cooperation between municipal governments and
Aboriginal peoples", concluded Mayor Les.
For more information lease contact Ma q a Hughes, Policy Adviser, Municipal-Aboriginal
Relations, at the FCM Secretariat. Telephone(613)241-5221;fax: (613)241-7440.

COUNCIL INFORMATION I=15
April 3 , 1995
Sandy Cook
8733 Leskard Road
R.R. #2 Orono, Ont . LOB 1M0
Mayor and Councillors of the Municipality of Clari_ngton
40 Temperance Street
Bowmanville, Ont. L1C 3A6
Dear Mayor Hamre and Members of Council ,
I was in attendance today at the General Purpose and
Administration Committee Meeting and would like to further
address the Animal Control/Dog Shooting incident, CS-11-95 . It
is an interesting process to sit and listen to supposed facts and
questions without being able to question or comment. I
understand the need for such a process to get things
accomplished, but there are some points I think need to be made
to hopefully help clarify this issue.
The main problem with this case is lack of information coupled
with the apparent callousness and triviality in which it was
handled. There are too many questions that the Gasser' s cannot
find definitive answers to, such as "Exactly what and how many
animals did their dogs kill?" Initially they were told rabbits,
geese and ducks; the following day chickens; and on a subsequent
occasion bantie hens: . Now in report CS-11-95 , it is chickens and
a rabbit. No numbers have ever been given. Qualifying numbers
like "many" and "lots" have all been used, but as Mr. Caruana
said today, even the town doesn't know, and it should. Was $200
a reasonable price to pay for an unknown amount of chickens and a
rabbit?
The other dog, Rita, "having no indication emergency services
were required" as per Report CS-11-95,' was found in sternal
recumbancy upon Linda' s arrival to the shelter and was shocky
when first assessed at the veterinary office. Rita had been
sprayed with shotgun pellets as well .
There are also many inconsistencies between Mr. Caruana' s report
and the sequence of events that took place according to Linda
Gasser, but these will be addressed by Linda at a later date.
The real intent of my letter is as follows .
As a veterinarian and friend of the Gasser' s, I am fully aware of
the healthy relationship the Gasser' s have with their pets . It
is a very strong human-animal bond, which is to say their pets
are family members .
f"
-2-
The problem with not disclosing a detailed account of the events
which led up to "Samson' s" demise is that the Gasser ' s will be
unable to complete the grieving process . I strongly feel that
=F council should look carefully at this incident and consider the
callousness of how it has been dealt with. The Gasser' s are
entitled to know how, why and by whom their dog was shot, and in
reality need to know to deal with Samson' s death effectively.
I contacted an inspector with the Ontario S .P.C.A. Humane _Society
fthis afternoon and inquired as to whether the other dog could
have been euthanized after the fact . He said no, that the farmer
could have shot the dog at the time the chickens were being
killed, but once the dog was off the property it could no longer
be killed.
I also inquired as to whether or not having a livestock evaluator
assess damages could change the fate of the other dog' s
existence. He again said no, that a livestock evaluator has only
one duty - to evaluate the livestock that has been lost so
adequate compensation can be paid. This in no way determines nor
affects the fate of the other dog!
This is in direct conflict with what Mr. Caruana said today, and
with what he told Mrs . Gasser in trying to settle this matter.
This is a very important point and needs to be clarified.
' Council needs to ensure that people on both sides of this issue
are held responsible and dealt with fairly. Consider ensuring a
third party livestock evaluator assess each case to remove the
question of fairness from the farmer' s assessment. The cost of
the evaluator should be paid by the dog' s owner so no additional
costs are incurred by council .
Inappropriate and false threats should not be made to hasten a
settlement . Town representatives should know the law as it
pertains to their area or seek counsel appropriately.
Finally, in light of more recent studies realizing the existence
s of a strong human-animal bond, it seems necessary to address the
psychological effects of a pet ' s loss on the owner . By assuring
that accurate details of the event are relayed to the dog owner,
a normal grieving process can proceed.
I would appreciate being kept abreast of this issue and would be
willing to submit information about the human-anir a�D 9 2l 1jY60N
feel it would be helpful or necessary.

Dear Ms. Racansky:
Thank you for your letter and petition of January 18, 1995, '
regarding proposed Highway 407, the Highway 401 to 407
Clarington Freeway Link and the North Courtice Development.
The ministry is responsible for identifying and addressing
the long range transportation needs of the province. In
doing this our projects follow current environmental
assessment legislation which requires need and
justification, alternatives and impacts to be carefully
assessed, evaluated and documented in an environmental
assessment report which is submitted to the Minister of
Environment and Energy for review and approval .
All studies are conducted by consulting and working closely
with all parties . This is the process we are going through
on the Highway 407 and Clarington Link studies . We believe
this is the best way of determining improvements that best
satisfy the diverse concerns of the many stakeholders while
striving for social, environmental and economic objectives .
I would like to stress that these studies are not yet
complete and your involvement is encouraged.
It is clear from your letter and petition that you have a
number of concerns related to the Highway 407 and Clarington
Link projects in terms of need and justification, and impact
to existing agricultural land, homes and the natural
environment. As these studies are still in progress, you
can be assured that you will continue to be provided with
every opportunity to express your concerns to the study team
and thereby to myself.

sk I also note your concerns and questions regarding the
Courtice North development as proposed in the Clarington
4 Official Plan. The responsibility for land use planning in
your area rests with the regional and local municipality.
Therefore, I suggest that you contact the Municipality of
Clarington to discuss the concerns stated in your letter
regarding the proposed community development.
4;
I thank you for your participation in these studies. Please
be assured that ministry staff will make every effort to
work with you to address your concerns during the remainder
of the studies and incorporate these considerations into the
final recommendations and submission to the Ministry of
Environment and Energy.

MAYOR DIANE HAMRE, AGENDA
MEMBERS OF COUNCIL,
TOWN OF CLARINGTON
DEAR FRIENDS
SUBJECT: RE: HARVESTING OF CHRISTMAS TREES
ON PROPERTY KNOWN AS PART 14, CON 3,
NOW PART 2, PLAN 1OR 2976, LOCATED ON THE EAST
SIDE OF REGIONAL ROAD 57,
IN THE TOWN OF CLARINGTON
We are submitting this letter to clarify our situation in regards
to the harvesting of Christmas trees on the above noted property
in relation to the Region' s Tree Conservation By-Law.
The Town of Clarington, By-Law Department has verbally prohibited
us from harvesting the remainder of our Christmas trees, and we
have been informed that the Town of Clarington By-Law Department
is considering laying charges against us under the Durham
Regional Tree Conservation By-Law.
Is this the standard procedure for all plantation owners when
they choose to harvest their trees, or are we being given special
attention, due to the fact that our property is adjacent to an
affluent residential area?
It is our understanding that the Durham Regional Tree
Conservation By-Law was enacted to regulate the indiscriminate
clear cutting of woodlots in urban residential areas by
subdividers and developers.
The Region of Durham advised us to make an application to the
Town of Clarington, of our intent to harvest the Christmas trees,
under (EXCEPTIONS) section (4) , schedule (1) , part (f) , of The
Regional Tree Conservation By-Law. Notification was submitted to
the Town Clerk,on August 17, 1994, that cutting would commence in
21 days. We felt we were under no obligation to submit an
application due to the fact that this is a Christmas tree farm
and we have been harvesting these trees on a small scale over a
number of years.
- 2 -
The Regional Tree Conservation By-Law Under The Trees Act,
clearly EXEMPTS us from this By-Law, as per section (4) ,
(EXCEPTIONS) , schedule ( 1 ) , (this by-law shall not, ) Part (a)
interfere with the right of a person who has been the registered
owner of land for at least two years to cut trees thereon for his
own use. Part (f) APPLY TO TREES PLANTED FOR THE PRODUCTION OF
'= CHRISTMAS TREES.
} There seems to be a basic misconception in defining the
difference between a PLANTATION and a woodlot. At what point in
time does a tree stop being a Christmas tree and when does that
tree take over the land and it' s owner?
This property DOES NOT qualify under the criteria of a woodlot,
the farm has been in our family since 1948, (we are not
speculators or developers) but land owners harvesting trees which
were planted (late 19501s) by us from seedlings of scot pine and
spruce, purchased from the Ministry of Natural Resources in
Orono, for the sole purpose of producing Christmas trees . We, are
still in the process of carrying out this objective.
The seedlings were cultivated, nurtured and run until
maturity, marketing of the Christmas trees was accomplished by
advertising in the local newspaper, "CUT YOUR OWN CHRISTMAS
TREE" . Individual trees were cut and sold from the farm, as well,
a number of trees were excavated and wrapped for landscaping
purposes.
The Ministry of Natural Resources is still in the practice of
supplying various species of seedlings, to land owners for the
sole purpose of producing Christmas trees as well as wood
. products, such as lumber or fuel . Harvesting of these trees 20
_. or 30 years in the future is deemed to be the same as any other
farmer harvesting a crop of corn; wheat; etc, we have the same
right to utilize this land and produce crops of our choice, in
the same manner as any other farmer in the Region of Durham.
3
We would like to point out that in 1988, a retirement lot was
severed from the existing farm property ref. LD327-88, it was
determined by the Town of Clarington and the Region of Durham
that our property is a BONA-FIDE FARM, of which complied with the
agricultural code of practice : met with the requirements of the
Ministry of the Environment, and final approval from the Central
Lake Ontario Conservation Authority, determining that our
property was not located in an environmentally sensitive area.
If in fact, this property was a woodlot, OF WHICH IT IS NOT, a
retirement lot would never have been approved for severance .
Further more, due to the fact that we live in an AGRICULTURAL
AREA there is a clause registered on our deed, that states, we
are prohibited from making a complaint of any kind, with regard
to neighbouring AGRICULTURAL FARM ACTIVITIES .
No doubt, the same clause exists on the adjacent residential
properties, including that of the complainant.
We can, substantiate these facts to be true, and ask that you
consider, the above information, before any final decisions are
made with respect to said charges .
Sincerely,

(Addendum C)
The overwhelming responses of individuals and communities in r
every part of Canada to Canada Remembers reflect an appreciation
that this is the right time to commemorate the impact of the Second
World War fifty years ago in shaping today' s Canada. Anyone with
an interest in Canada' s heritage and cultural landscape is
encouraged to undertake projects which would lead to a better
understanding of how the war years affected his or her community.
Should you wish to host an event to commemorate the end of WWII ,
kindly call me so that I could publicize the activity, network with
other organizations , or, simply help in whatever way possible. For
your information, a project is currently underway to put together
a scrapbook of commemorative events across Canada.

Dear Mayor Diane Hamre,
I am one of several people whose fate of OUR PROPERTY is
being decided through the back doors of Clarington.
Do I as a tax payer and one who has paid taxes for 14 years
have NO RIGHT, to say what should happen to MY LAND?
I worked in Toronto and only recently found out the attempts
of the Clarington Board, of having MY PROPERTY changed from RH1 to
woodlot, making it worthless.
I understand that I will not be allowed to cut or even remove
trees from MY PROPERTY, for my own use.
Meetings are being carried out at inconvenient times; with no
notice sent to those whose properties are being decided upon.
I also understand that the decision on these properties are
being pushed through while the NDP are still in power.
Sk What about the taxes, I HAVE PAID on MY PROPERTY, which I
looked upon as future investment? If the zoning is changed am I
expected to pay taxes on this property? Do I get reimbursed on
taxes for the past fourteen years?
I want to go on record as being very strongly against having
the zoning changed from RH1 to "woodlot" .
My address says that I live in Canada, DO I?????
Si rely, CLERI( r ..._... ._.

Bowmanville, L1 C 3A9
DURHAM NON-PROFIT HOUSING'S - BOWMANVILLE PROJECT
I would appreciate information related to the following issues.
WATER PRESSURE
Inspite of reassurances from the region, it is the perception of many local
residents that the current water pressure in this area is deserves immediate attention.
Information about proposed improvements have not been shared with home owners.
For this reason it is with healthy scepticism that I read assurances from the region
that "we do not anticipate the pressure in the water supply system to change in the
area due to the proposed development". I have been informed that the water pressure
as measured by Regional staff in three separate areas of Bowmanville were 80, 60,
and 40 pounds pressure. The pressure in my neighbourhood is at this lowest level
even before this building started.
TRAFFIC
It is interesting to note that the concern of local residents about traffic is
dismissed because of the information included in a 1989 traffic study which is 6 years
old. I recall that this study did little to reassure the concerned citizens in 1989 because
IL
they questioned its credibility.'
Within the last couple of years a traffic study was made about the traffic flow
on Church Street related to the need for upgrading and rebuilding.
The intersection of Church and Temperance St. was also studied to determine
the potential need for traffic lights. An informal reaction to the data was that this was
a very busy intersection for both pedestrian and vehicular traffic.
There are also plans to upgrade Wellington Street which will include rebuilding
and possibly widening. How will road widening affect this project? Did this project
include traffic studies similar to those on Church Street?
k
Has any of this current information been considered?
cont'd /
{
Has any consideration been given to the fact that the intersection of
Temperance and Wellington Streets is in the "higher accident rate category"
compared to other interceptions in the town?
Will the entrance to the one way circular drive be moved closer to the busy
intersection? Could such a move contribute to rear end collisions involving cars
slowing down to turn in? These questions are based on your decision to move the
building 2.0 meters closer towards this intersection to reduce concerns about the
shadow effect upon backyards to the east.
Will moving the building increase the potential for accidents because of the
} difficulty of seeing traffic when:
- leaving the surface parking lot, if there is an exit onto Temperance Street?
- approaching the intersection of Temperance and Wellington Streets from the
south?
Will this move increase the level of traffic noise which the residents in the
l apartments in the West wing have to tolerate?
Should this proposed relocation be reconsidered?
This project is going to have an impact on traffic in this area for another 50
q>, years, so other projects, such the new shopping plazas should also be evaluated.
Housing projects, which have been built since the 1989 traffic study was completed,
have increased congestion on both Liberty and King Streets.. It seems only logical to
anticipate that residents living on Liberty Street N. and wishing to go to the plaza
near the new arena will use the route with the least congestion and fewest number
of traffic lights. This route would be the newly rebuilt Wellington Street running past
this housing project/senior citizen centre.
Projecting even a little further into the future, what impact will the proposed
M redevelopment of the freight yards between Church and Wellington Streets have upon
the traffic patterns in this neighbourhood. It has been the strong contention of the
former mayor Marie Hubbard that the increased traffic congestion created by this
project would be significant and have a major concern for residents in this area.
Again I ask, "Is it realistic to base our conclusions on outdated traffic studies
rR:
from 1989 when so much has changed or is about to change?" Has similar
I weaknesses in the long range planning of previous councils created the situation that
now forces the "search for rental space in a two or three block range of the
Q
Municipal Administrative Centre that could be utilized for municipal staff parking"?
cont'd
■
3
Could traffic congestion be reduced by connecting:
- the court house parking lot,
- the enlarged surface parking lot at the south of the building,
- the underground parking?
This configuration would allow access to/from three streets. Perhaps it would
help to reduce congestion by creating a one way entrance into the surface parking
lot from Temperance Street and two way entrances/exits on Church and Wellington.
Is there any current data related to the volume and pattern of traffic associated
with a very active senior citizens centre? If available, has it been considered? If not,
should this issue be researched?
TENANT MIX
There is a great demand for senior citizen apartments as confirmed b the
P Y
current waiting list.
Initial) there was a lack of understanding b the staff at the Town Hall about
Y g Y
current legislation that prevents.exclusion of residents based upon age. Perhaps there
is also a lack of appreciation about the impact of other aspects of the legislation?
Is it possible to set any limits related to percentages of tenants in specified age
ranges? If not, is there any reason why this building in the future could not include a
majority of single people under the age of 25 because they had the greatest need for
subsidized housing? Would such a tenant mix have a negative impact upon activities
in the senior citizen centre? A segment of W5 on March .15 about assisted housing
confirmed that serious problems develop when government policies are not based on
common sense or the specific needs of a community.
POTENTIAL COSTS
The proposed senior citizen centre is a separately funded item located in this
housing complex. Will it be paid for with funds from the provincial, regional and/or
local levels? What is the size of the administrative staff which will be required to run
this activity centre? Has the projected budget been established? Does the viability
of this housing project depend upon rental revenues from this activity centre? What
is the potential impact upon the beleaguered taxpayer?
Yours truly,
L

Bomanville, Ont .
ar. 13, 1995
Dear Mayor Hamre :
the proposal for revisions to the planned subdivision bordered
by Hwy. 2 and Beaver Street has prompted me to forward this letter.
ALA
tue to work I was unable to attend the afternoon meeting to discuss
his matter and express my concerns with you.
am a resident of Beaver St. and have been for the past several
ears . The following are my concerns :
There are only two access points to this subdivison. One off of
kwy . 2 and one off Beaver St . Increased traffic on Beaver St . will
e dangerous as this road is directly on the way to school for the
children of the village .
'' Therefore I would suggest that no heavy construction vehicles be
allowed on this road. Additionally it would be adventageous if this
accesss - by Edward Street - was not opened until final completion
Ind occupation of the new homes .
With the increased traffic flow, a four way stop sign at Edward
nd Beaver streets would make the intersection safer for all .
The increase in density changes the composition of the town
tself . In what may be viewed by some as elitism, I purchased my
mall 2 bedroom home here due to the fact that Newcastle had no
semi , townhouse or block townhouse homes . It was a small community
of home owners ; which I feel lead to a better standard of life with
X11 contributing to the sustained value in the community through
` ride of ownership. We were !;, not just a stamped out group of
buildings but individuals with an identity.
L
L
!V
I,
EM.
i�
ti
The increase is the first step to the urban sprawl of the city
and a marked decrease in our way of life. The individual is
supplanted by the group. The homes all look the same and individual
touches are harder to express
Will the increase of 512 homes be matched by upgrades in service .
Most of these homes will house families of on average 3 or 4
people . At this juncture , can Newcastle Village handle the influx
of 1500 - 2000 people.
The 1991 Census indicated that Newcastle Village had a population
of 4, 300 people. Can we stand an increase of 40% of our population.
Parking in the village is limited and recreation facilities are
few.
What will the youth do with their free time. We already have a
problem with crime and loitering in the summer months . Are steps
are being taken to address these concerns.. We have no police
presence in the village and our fire dept. will have to carry this
increased burden.
Was the new school expansion done to eleviate present overcrowding
or was the expansion done with the resulting enrollment increase
} due to the subdivision. I am concerned that the new school w i l l
again be overcrowded.
Are our services adaquate to provide for the subdivision or will
upgrades have to be made? At the present time frequent power
surges and otages occur on Beaver St . during even the mildest of
} wind and rain storms . It forces the question of the ability of the
present lines and substations to handle not only the present load
but an increased one.
H Also an important issue to me is whether or not, if upgrades are
required, signifigant tax increases will result? It does not seem
fair that I should subsidize the developer in his attept to turn a
profit.
Will the
proposed housing be the towering three storey buildings
g as seen driving westward on Hwy . 2 ? This affects the privacy of
the adjoining neighbours as these new homes loom over the backyards
of the current residents of Newcatle . Will the developer restrict
the height of these homes and erect privacy fences ?
The location of the new park beside existing parks of the schools
seems redundant. Would it not make more sense to create parkland
for the residents of the north east portion of the subdivision and
village?
Graham Creek is one of few southern Ontario spawning areas and
isheries for trout. Has an envoirnmental assessment been done to
show the impact that 1500 - 200 people would have on this natural
esource ? The encroaching urban sprawl threatens the tourist
ollars generated by the fisheries in this area.
I am extremely concerned about this issue and am respectfully
1equesting a copy of that report be sent to me please.
What is the time frame for completion and final clean-up of this
lroject? A constant eyesore of mud and machinery with the resulting
oise pollution for years is not a pleasant thought.
klIn conclusion I worry about what a massive increase in population
ill mean to this community. Raising the density from 9 to 14
eople as you recently did seems to be a drastic increase .
:,Your recent planning survey states that 46 % of the people believe
hat expansion is occurring at too rapid a pace . Therefore I am
hoping that you would deny the .proposal for increased density and
hereby address those concerns . Growth is inevitable but must be
one at a reasonable, controllable pace .
Thank you for your time,
'Sincerely,
tMane Harrison DISTFZ12UTION

Social Contract Survey
The Public Sector Labour Market and Productivity Commission has asked Price Waterhouse
to conduct a survey of the employers affected by the Social Contract. The objectives of the
survey are to monitor the impact of the Social Contract and to provide strategic information
for the Ontario government in developing public sector labour market related policies.
The questionnaire is divided into the following four sections:
• Section A- Organization Characteristics;
• Section B -Social Contract Expenditure Reduction Targets: Compensation
Reduction Measures;
• Section C- Social Contract Expenditure Reduction Targets: Workforce Measures;
and
• Section D -Social Contract Expenditure Reduction Targets: Other Measures.
Your responses are confidential. We will summarize the results in a fashion that will not
permit the identification of individual organizations. Although participation in the survey is
voluntary,we strongly urge you to complete the questionnaire and return it as soon as
possible. The results of this survey will help develop future labour market initiatives. This is
your opportunity to participate in the policy development process which may have a
IL significant impact on your organization.

Dear Sirs:
Re: Draft Official Plan - Steven Carruthers
Part of Lot 16, Concession 2, designated as
Parts 1, 2, and 3, Plan 1OR-3610, formerly
Darlington
I am writing to advise that I am the solicitor for Mr. , Steven
ELI Carruthers, who wishes to submit to the Municipality of Clarington,
his comments pertaining to the recent draft Official Plan , of
Clarington published in May of 1994.
Mr. Carruthers first purchased the 104.797 acres located in
Lot 16, Concession 2, Geographic Township of Darlington, now
Clarington on the 17th day of May, 1982. Effective as of %`.he 1st
day of February, 1990, he sold the subject real property to West
Bowmanville Properties Ltd. , and effective as of the lst day of
February, 1994, he obtained a Final Order of Foreclosure on a
mortgage which had provided financing back to West Bowmanville
Properties Ltd. . The Final Order of Foreclosure was eventually
registered on the 27th day of September, 1994.
L
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .2
L
L
2 -
This letter is written to advise the Municipality of
Clarington and Staff in the Clarington Planning Department; that
Steven Carruthers supports absolutely the interim urban boundary in
Lot 16, Concession 2 (Darlington) , as it applies to his land. Mr.
Carruthers has had occasion to read the letter of the 21st day; of
July, 1994 from The Kaitlin Group Ltd. directed to Mr. Franklin Wu.
In this letter, Kelvin Whalen, P. Eng. , Director of Land
Development for The Kaitlin Group Ltd. seems to indicate that the
one hundred acres of Brookhill located in Lot 16, Concession 2
(Darlington), is owned by The Kaitlin Group Ltd. The latter is not
the case and Mr. Carruthers as indicated above has owned a portion
of the subject parcel marked "Brookhill" since February lst, 1994.
My client submits that the interim boundary line should-remain
the exact same. The construction of infrastructure being storm ,
sewer, sanitary sewer and water within the existing interim
boundary line makes greater sense from a planning standpoint.: The
allocation of three thousand four hundred (3,400) persons to live
within the interim boundary of Brookhill would seem to provide a
more cohesive residential node than expanding the interim boundary
T to include the "Maple Green" area. Further, the development of the
Brookhill node as suggested by Staff would definitely not prejudice
the development potential for the Maple Green area. In fact, it. is
noticed that the Maple Green area is almost completely planted:�in
a fairly new apple orchard and this perhaps would permit the
orchard to mature to its total potential in the interim before
expansion of the interim urban boundary to the west. Further, the
extension of Street B to the east west road along the north end of
the interim boundary being the north boundary of my client's
property would give the priority to Street B that in effect has
been given to Street B in the new West Main Central Area.
Further, the total Brookhill area, including my client's lands
and the "Tonno Lands" would seem to provide appropriate
configurations and in effect permit the new public high school to
proceed within the next four years. My client understands that
g there is an immediate demand for the high school. Further, the
Maple Green section of land which is the proposal "West Bowmanville
Business Park" would require extremely major official plan change
at the Region of Durham and could be some years in the future
coming into actual fruition if permitted by the Municipality.
There is no question that there is a substantial employment, light
industrial area and general industrial area along the 401 corridor
and the West Bowmanville Business Park might not be needed at' this
time. Further, it is submitted that the retail area presently
designated in the Official Plan Amendment 56 being the "West Main
a
3 -
Central Area" and the existing "Main Central Area" should not have
any competitive factors whether prestige, industrial, employment
area, light industrial or general industrial uses as represented by
the proposed new "West Bowmanville Business Park" . No doubt, the
establishment of the newly planned West Main Central Area will take
substantial time to work out a delicate retail balance with the
existing "Main Central Area" prior to any adjunct in the form of a
new "West Bowmanville Business Park" .
It seems to the writer that the planned secondary school of
the Brookhill site should be of much greater significance than the
additional public elementary school of the Maple Green site.
In conclusion, my - client feels that the interim boundary
should not be changed from the initial draft of the Official Plan
r for Clarington as the existing interim boundary would permit a much
more balanced development in conjunction with the new West� Main
Central Area, further permit the extension of Street B through to
the north of the interim boundary, permit in the immediately
foreseeable future development of the subject high school, not
interfere with the existing orchard use presently on the Maple
Green site until the same is required for population expansion, and
permits the effective use of services to the north of the Willsonia
site. Accordingly, it is submitted that Map A-3 remain the same as
it pertains to the interim boundary line north of the new West Main
Central Area.
My client would appreciate the opportunity to review this
situation with Staff at their convenience.

I have recently become aware that the Municipality of Clarington
is not presently represented on the Board studying the future use
of the Ganaraska Forest.
We moved to Clarington in June, 1995 from Uxbridge. One of the
main considerations when we moved was the close proximity to the
Ganaraska Forest.
I would ask that you please consider having representation on the
established Board and that I be considered for the position.
Thank you for your time and consideration.

Dear Ms. Cappadocia:
As you may be aware, the coverfinent of Ontario has recently passed
Bill 38, "An .A*t..to. amend. the Aft-ail Businggs Holidays Act", with
respect to Sunday shoppihq.
With the passage of kill 38, the LCBO is now in a position to
accept applications for the authorization of Sunday openings for
WL oft-site winery retail stores, subject to the approval of the local
municipal council. As with Sunday openings for on-site stores, the
LOBO rewires that wineries apply to the LCBO and include written
support from their local coiihcil prior to approving Sunday
openings.
To avoid a duplication of effort, I believe that the wine Council,
on behalf of all Ontario wineries, has approached the municipal
councils of communities in which off-site stores are located for
letters of support. The wineries can now submit their applications
and letters of support to the LCBO.
Where a municipality has indicated that it is opposed to the Sunday
opening of a inery retail store within their community, the LOBO
will not authorize the opening and will direct that store to remain
closed.
L
L

Applications and letters of support for Sunday opening
authorizations are to be submitted to Mr. Ihor Salij , Coordinator,
Agency, Brewery and Winery Stores, 55 Lakeshore Blvd. East, ,
Toronto, M5E 1A4.
If you require further information with regard to this matter,
please contact Mr. Rowland Dunning, Executive Director, LOBO

Patti Barrie
Clerk
Municipality of Clarington
40 Temperence Street
Bownanville, Ontario
L1C 3A6
Dear Patti,
We are writing on behalf of the Durham Region M.E. Association to
respectfully request again a proclamation declaring May 12th as M.E.
Awareness Day.
Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (M.E.), more commonly known as Chronic
Fatigue Syndrome (CFS), is a multi-system disorder resulting in a vast array of
debilitating symptoms including, but not limited to, profound weakness, sleep
disturbances, memory and concentration difficulties, recurrent flu-like symptoms,
"pressure-like" headaches, chronic pain (Fibromyalgia), numbness and tingling,
ILI
disorientation, vision problems, dizziness and seizures. Many people, including
children, with M.E. remain chronically ill for years, and are either completely
bedridden or are so severely afflicted that they cannot attend school, maintain
employment or care for their families. One of the most frightening aspects of this
disease is the fact that those individuals who contract it had previously been active,
productive, and vibrant members of society.
In 1993, May 12th took on a great significance to these people whose lives have
been devastated by this illness when International M.E. Day was observed for the
first time. International M.E. Awareness Day is the one day each year that people
concerned about M.E. can act in unison to alert the government, media and
general public about the devastation that this illness causes. The May 12th date
was chosen by Awareness Day organizer Tom Hennessey to commemorate the
birthdate of Florence Nightingale, the English army nurse who inspired the
founding of the International Red Cross and who was bedridden for the last 50
years of her life with a disease that modern doctors believe was M.E.
Again this year, support groups from around the world are making plans to ensure
that 1995's M.E. Awareness Day is an even greater event. In Canada, our focus is
on raising awareness of the fact that large numbers of children are affected by this
disease. A child with this illness can only look forward to a very gloomy future.
Something must be done to insure a proper understanding of this illness by
teachers, parents, -doctors and society. At the Municipal level, we respectfully
request that the Municipality of Clarington declare May 12th officially M.E.
Awareness Day. Many of your constituents, whose lives have been directly
or indirectly affected by this disease, are hoping to tell the press that the i
Municipality of Chuington has supported them by serving such a
proclamation.
We have enclosed a
pamphlet produced by the M.E. Association of Ontario for
Your information. We would be happy to answer any questions that you might
have and look forward to hearing from you.
Sincerely,
Peg Watson Frances Walmsley
Presidents of the Durham Region M.E. Association

Subject:
QUOTATION Q94-10, DRIVEWAY PAVING
L
LRecommendations:
It is respectfully recommended to Council the following:
1 . THAT Report TR-24-95 be received;
2 . THAT authorization be given by Council for the additional
expenditure of $11, 619 .13 be paid to Tri-Son Contracting Inc;
and
3 . THAT the required funds be drawn from Account #2005-00002-0000
as carried over from the 1994 Current Budget.
BACKGROUND
On August 16, 1994, Tri-Son Contracting Inc. , Prince Albert,
Ontario was awarded Quotation Q94-10 for Driveway Paving in the
amount of $27,418 .36, as required by the Department of Public
Works .
AL For the information of Council, it is the Public Works Standard
Policy to provide a level of service to repave all asphalt
driveways to raise the driveway flush with the newly reconstructed
road.
Tri-Son Contracting Inc. provided the requested level of service,
however additional work above the quoted tender price was required
for the following reasons:
r
L
1
REPORT NO. : TR-24-95 PAGE 2
QUOTATION Q94-10
1) It was noticed that on some driveways the slope of the
new asphalt was not at a desired slope. To lessen the
number of complaints, extra asphalt was added to the
length of driveway to achieve a more suitable slope.
Additional costs to do this totalled $3, 057 . 60 . r
2) Tri-Son Contracting Inc. also repaved several cross
culverts which were either replaced or reset by Public
Works staff . Staff needed to widen a number of cross
culverts beyond the 4' x 24" specified on Quotation Q94-
10 to replace the new culverts properly. Additional cost
above the quoted price was $1, 073 . 61 (G.S.T. included) .
3) Public Works staff had originally planned to repave a
number of driveways using their own staff. However, due
to increasing amount of holidays and lieu time, Public
Works staff could not complete the selected driveways
efficiently or within a reasonable time frame. Tri-Son
Contracting Inc. were therefore requested to complete the
remainder of the driveways since they were already in the
area. Additional costs to include these extra driveways
totalled $7,412 . 77 (G.S.T. included) or 1916 above the
original quoted price .
Consequently, the total expenditure required to complete the
necessary work is $39, 037.49 (G.S.T. included) which is $11, 619.13
above the original contract award approved by Council .
As the Contractor completed the requested work in November of 1994
and has yet to be paid for the additional expenditure of
$11, 619 . 13 , approval is being requested from Council in order that
payment may be processed as soon as possible.
It is recommended that the additional funds required be drawn from r
Account #2005-00002-0000, as carried over from the 1994 Current
Budget .
