REPORT NO.: PDA 1-99 PAGE 3
3. BACKGROUND
3.1 Draft approved for plan of subdivision 18T-82037, adjacent to Liberty Street, was
revised on July 10, 1997 for a total of 363 units. The draft approval includes; 2
blocks, 150 units, for high density development, a block for a Local Central Area, a
block for a separate elementary school, and a park block. Plan of subdivision 18T-
87087, adjacent to Middle Road, as revised, was granted Draft Approval on April
19, 1996 and has a total of 509 units. It also contains a block for a Local Central
Area, a block for a public elementary school, and a park block, as well as a 39 unit
medium density block. Both plans have had registration and construction of at least
one phase of residential development. St. Elizabeth Catholic Elementary School has
been developed in 18T-82037 along with the necessary portions of Longworth
Avenue for access from the west.
3.2 The combined applications for rezoning and amendment to draft approval to
18T-82037 and 18T-87087 propose three changes:
i) eliminate a 1.127 ha (2.78 acre), 39 unit townhouse block in 18T-87087
and introduce a local road intersecting with Longworth Ave. (Street Z)
opposite Laurelwood St with 18.0 m frontage semi-detached/link lots.
Rezoning is required;
ii) eliminate 23 single detached dwelling units fronting on the High St.
extension in 18T-82037 and replace them with 18.0 m frontage semi-
detached/linked lots and allow for the intersection of the above referenced
Street Z with High St. (Street A in 18T-82037). Rezoning is required; and
iii) revise 53 single detached, R2 zoned lots fronting on the Clayton Crescent
extension and the south side of the Longworth Ave. extension east of High
St. in 18T-82037 to 60 lots by reducing the lot frontages to a minimum of
12.0 m (40 ft). No change to the zoning is required.

4 EXISTING AND SURROUNDING USES
4.1 Existing Uses: the subject lands are currently vacant
4.2 Surrounding Uses. East - existing residential and Liberty Street;
West - existing residential and Middle Road;
South - existing residential; and
North - St Elizabeth Catholic Elementary School,
residential and vacant lands.
5. OFFICIAL PLAN POLICIES
5.1 Within the Durham Regional Official Plan the subject property is designated "Living
Area". The predominant use of land within this designation shall be for housing
purposes. The Transportation schedule, of the Durham Plan, identifies Longworth
Avenue as a future Type "C" arterial road.
5.2 Within the Clarington Official Plan the subject lands are designated Urban
Residential within the Bowmanville Urban Area, and are within proximity of two
6 4
REPORT NO.: PD-11-99 PAGE 5
Local Central Area symbols, one at Longworth Ave. and Liberty St. and the other at
Middle Rd and Longworth Ave. The lands are located within the Elgin
Neighbourhood (No. 7). The predominant use of land within the Urban Residential
designation shall be for housing purposes.
5.3 The Local Central Area designation at Liberty St. and Longworth Ave. includes 50
medium density units and 150 high density units in addition to the retail and office
floor space. The Local Central Area symbol at Longworth Ave. and Middle Road
includes 150 medium density units in addition to the retail and office floor space.
The Transportation Schedule of the Clarington Official Plan also identifies
Longworth Ave. as a Type C arterial road. The policies for Type C arterial roads
generally discourage private access for residential areas, except for
apartment/townhouse blocks.
6 ZONING BY-LAW PROVISIONS
6.1 The lands subject to the combined rezoning and amendment to draft approval are
zoned "Holding - Urban Residential Type Two ((H)R2)" and "Holding — Urban
Residential Type Three ((H)R3)". These zones would not permit the proposed semi-
detached/link lots. The lands subject to amendment to draft approval for revision to
the 12.0 m frontage single detached lots comply with the R2 zone provisions.
i
7 AGENCY COMMENTS
7.1 The application was circulated to a limited number of agencies for comments. To
date comments remain outstanding from:
• Regional Works Department;
• Regional Planning Department;
• The Peterborough Victoria Northumberland and Clarington Separate School
Board; and
• The Kawartha Pine Ridge District Public School Board
6 5
REPORT NO.: PD-11-99 PAGE 6
7.2 The Clarington Public Works Department, Engineering Division have commented
that the subject applications are within the Zone 2 water pressure zone. All
development in this zone is frozen until such time the Region of Durham has
constructed the necessary facilities to increase the water pressure in this zone. This
application should be tabled until the water pressure issue has been resolved.
7.3 Clarington Hydro has advised they have no objection to the referenced application.
8 PUBLIC MEETING
8.1 Public notice was given by mail to each landowner within 120 metres of the subject
site and public notice signs were installed on Longworth Avenue and High Street.
8.2 As of the wi '
writing of this report staff have
received a number of counter and hone
g p p
enquiries. The majority of enquiries have expressed concern with a reduction of lot
sizes fronting on Longworth Ave. and Clayton Cres. Other concerns included an
abundance of semi-detached/link lots in this area.
9. STAFF COMMENTS
9.1 The proposed revisions to draft approval associated with the introduction of Street Z
include three (3) through lots (six units). These lots are proposed to have access
from the new Street Z while their rear property line is bounded by Longworth Ave.
Design concerns have been identified, as future homeowners of these lots will most
likely fence their rear property line for privacy. This would not be in keeping with
the draft approved units on the north side of Longworth Ave. and is not considered
desirable. Staff will review this design issue further with the applicant and his
consultant in an attempt to achieve a preferred solution.
9.2 Phase I of draft approved plan of subdivision 18T-82037 (10M-835), was registered
bu6
REPORT NO.: PD-11-99 PAGE 7
prior to the introduction of the Development Charges Act. As a result the lot
development charges collected for phase I were considerably less than those being
collected today by the Municipality. However, the subdivision agreement also
included the construction of items which were considered to be the responsibility of
the developer, which under the current Development Charges By-law are typically
included in the 10 year capital work forecast and paid for through development
charges. The current Subdivision Agreement for 18T-82037 requires the developer
to construct the park block with the registration of the next phase of residential
development. This has been a source of concern for Halloway Holdings Limited. At
the time Halloway Holdings purchased the remainder of draft plan 18T-82037 they
requested that the park block construction requirement be removed form the
subdivision agreement and added to the Municipality's Development Charge.
Council denied this request. Should all servicing and design issues be resolved,
development of lands within the limits of 18T-82037 could not proceed until there
was concurrence with respect to construction of the park block.
9.3 As evident by some of the residents comments, the mix of units will have to be
reviewed closely to ensure an appropriate mix of housing type is being ultimately
approved. The applications propose to increase the number of smaller frontage lots.
The following chart illustrates that 9.0 and 12.0 m minimum frontage lots are
proposed to total 58% of the units in the two draft plans. This is up 10% from the
existing draft approval. Lots with 13.5 m and 15.0 m frontages drops from 17.5% to
just over 12%. The 39 unit townhouse block is eliminated.

1 . APPLICATION DETAILS
1.1 Applicant and Owner: Walter and James Hale
1.2 Regional Official Plan Amendment: Permanent Agricultural Reserve to
a designation appropriate to permit
b1 �
REPORT NO.: PD-13-99 PAGE 6
(Application LD 193/96) was approved by the Land Division Committee on June 24,
1997 to allow the creation of a lot in Part of Lot 19, Concession 4, former Township
of Clarke on behalf of the Hales. The lot having an existing farmhouse was created
through the melding of two farm parcels (see Attachment #1). i
10.2 The applicants have in the past, attempted to create an intra-family lot and a
retirement lot on the subject lands (LD 071/93 and LD 206/93). Both the
applications were denied by the Land Division Committee as they did not satisfy the
requirements of the Durham Region Official Plan.
10.2 An agricultural assessment, as required, was prepared by Dale Toombs. The Hales
operate a large livestock business comprising approximately 1000 head of livestock.
They own 9 parcels of land for a total of 512 hectares (Attachment #2). They also
rent one 20 ha parcel. Farming is not their sole source of income as they also
operate a metal recycling business and a disposal company. Regardless, the
livestock operation is a very large enterprise and is viable on its own accord. The
farm employs 2 people part-time and seasonal labour is required during the harvest
season.
The Hales purchased this property in 1992 and have rented the house since that i
time as it was not needed to accommodate farm employees. The agricultural
assessment noted that there are no livestock facilities within 300 metres of the lot to
be severed and that the Minimum Distance Separation requirements have been
complied with. The consultant states that the farm operation qualifies as a bona-fide
farm and that the application complies with the Provincial Policy Statement.
10.4 The applicant can satisfy all of the Clarington Official Plan requirements with the
exception of the lot area (0.6 ha) for the surplus dwelling. The subject house is set
quite a distance (250 m) back from the road. The applicant's original proposal was
bL3
REPORT NO.: PD-13-99 PAGE 7
to create a lot having a lot area of 2.65 ha (6.5 ac). They have reduced the lot size
to 0.79 ha (1.95 ac) bringing the lot area closer to conformity with the Official Plan.
Staff recognize that due to the distance the house is setback from the road it is very
difficult to achieve a 0.6 ha lot area. Staff support flexibility of the lot area due to
the siting of the residence.
10.5 By reducing the overall size of the lot, less land is taken out of agricultural
production hence going further to achieving the principle of preservation of
agricultural land. However, in attaining a smaller lot size, the lot frontage was
reduced to 9 metres (29.5 ft.)from the required 30 metres (100 feet). This frontage is
not in compliance with Clarington's Comprehensive Zoning By-law 84-63.
However, Staff support this reduction as it is maintaining agricultural land in
production. The applicant is aware that the lot will have to be brought into
compliance with the Comprehensive Zoning By-law either through an amendment
to the by-law or a minor variance. This application can be forwarded either before
or concurrently with the land division application required to create the lot.
11 . CONCLUSIONS
11.1 In light of the above comments detailed in Section 10 of this report, it is Staff's
opinion that this amendment will not offend the intent of the Official Plan. It is
therefore recommended that the amendment, as shown in Attachment #3, be
approved as Amendment No. 14 to the Clarington Official Plan.

LOTS 7 - 19, BLOCKS 28 - 32 ALL INCLUSIVE ON 40M-1945
FILE NO.: DEV 98-071
Recommendations:
It is respectfully recommended that the General Purpose and Administration Committee
recommend to Council the following:
1. THAT Report PD-16-99 be received;
2. THAT the request submitted by 1249981 Ontario Limited for removal of Part Lot
Control in respect of Lots 7 to 19, and Blocks 28 to 32, all inclusive on Plan 40M-
1945 be APPROVED;
3. THAT the attached Part Lot Control By-law be APPROVED and forwarded to the
Regional Municipality of Durham pursuant to Section 50(7) of the Planning Act
R.S.O. 1990, as amended; and
4. THAT all interested parties listed in this report and any delegations be advised of
Council's decision.
1. BACKGROUND
1.1 The draft approved plan of subdivision 18T-91006 is located in Part Lot 30,
Concession 3, former Township of Darlington (Attachment No. 1);
b / 9
REPORT PD-16-99 PAGE 2
1.2 In December of 1998, Staff received a request from 1249981 Ontario Limited for
the removal of Part Lot Control with respect of Lots 7 to 19 and Blocks 28 to 32, all
inclusive on draft plan 18T-910006. Registration under the number 40M-1945 was
completed on Friday January 15, 1999.
1.3 The removal of Part Lot Control would facilitate the construction of 26 semi-
detached dwelling units and 31 townhouse units.
i
1.4 There is an existing agreement in place to cover the Municipality's financial interest
as all lots and blocks are within a registered plan of subdivision.
2. STAFF COMMENTS
2.1 Staff have no objection to the approval of a By-law exempting the subject lands from
Part Lot Control.
i
2.2 Attachment No. 2 is a By-law which has been prepared to exempt the subject lands
from Section 50(5) of the Planning Act, pursuant to the provisions of Section 50(7)
of the Planning Act. The Part Lot Control By-law requires the approval of Council
and the Regional Municipality of Durham.
2.3 In accordance with Subsection 7.3 of Section 50 of the Planning Act, the By-law
may provide a specified timeframe during which the By-law shall be in force. As a
result, it is not necessary for Staff to prepare a second By-law to restore Part Lot

Dear .Nir�-,- Barrie
As the result of a conversation which I had to-day
with the Chief By-law Enforcement Officer , Mr . Len
Creamer , concerning the monitoring of the off-street
parking lots in the Downtown, would you be kind enough
to include in your resolution to Council ( regarding
the continuance of the three-hour free parking) the
following amendment :
THAT the municipal By-law Enforcement Officers be per-
mitted to monitor the various off-street parking lots
within the Bowmanville B. I .A. , on a routine basis , to
identify vehicles which are being parked there for a
period longer than the allowed three-hours free park-
ing.
If you need to discuss the circumstances which have
prompted this addition, I suggest that you contact Mr .
Creamer and/or myself.
Yours very truly
Ron Hooper

THE CORPORATION OF THE MUNICIPALITY OF CLARINGTON
REPORT
Meeting: GENERAL PURPOSE AND ADMINISTRATION COMMITTEE File #
Date: February 1, 1999 Res. #
Report #: CD-07-99 By-law #
Subject: PARKING PROPOSAL—BOWMANVILLE BUSINESS CENTRE-
OUR FILE: T02.GE
It is respectfully recommended that the General Purpose and Administration Committee recommend to
Council:
1. THAT Report CD-07-99 be received;
2. THAT the pilot project of providing free three hour parking in the off-street lots at Division Street and
Silver Street continue until December 31, 1999; and
3. THAT the Bowmanville BIA be advised of Council's decision.
BACKGROUND
At its meeting on July 13, 1998 Council approved Resolution#C-622-98 allowing for a five month pilot
project on parking in downtown Bowmanville. Since that time, parking at the Division Street and the Silver
Street lots has been free and the cost of parking in the Church Street lot has been a flat rate of$2.00 per
day. Staff were requested to monitor the situation and report back in the new year.
A meeting was held with members of the BIA on January 20, 1999. At that time, the BIA indicated that the
introduction of free parking in the lots has been a positive marketing strategy and the discontinuance of the
practice would have a negative impact on their customers. As such, they have requested that the free
parking be continued to the end of 1999. They feel that this time frame would provide a better base for the
pilot project.
From the Municipality's view point, the most apparent result has been the effect on revenue. At the end of
July, parking revenue was$85,158.26, an increase of$4,334.16 over 1997. This was partly the result of
increased enforcement, the majority of which was complaints in the evenings related to on-street parking at
various baseball diamonds in residential areas. Despite the early increase, by year end the revenue was
61
Report CD-07-99 - 2 - February 1, 1999
down $9,270.14 from last year. This equates to a total loss for 1998 of$13,604,30, an average of
$2,720.86 per month. Report TR-58-98 stated that the calculated loss in revenue, should Council approve
staff's original recommendation to provide free parking at all meters and central meters, would be
approximately $5,100 per month. At the request of the BIA, Council did not approve the recommendation
for free parking at the meters, therefore, the lost revenue is less than was projected. However, the actual
loss will impact the Parking Reserve Fund in an annual amount of$32,650.
The Parking Reserve Fund is used to offset all costs of Parking operations, ie, enforcement, maintenance,
acquisition of new parking lots and any related capital expenditures. The approximate balance in this fund
is currently $475,000. The Property Manager is presently negotiating the purchase of two pieces of
property which may impact the funds in this account.
A concern of misuse of the free lots by employees of downtown businesses was identified in the initial
report presented to Council. Originally, municipal staff were instructed to park in the Church Street lot, as
per Council's resolution, By way of letter dated August 21, the BIA requested that municipal staff park in
any of the lots in order to free up the Church Street lot for downtown employees. Accordingly, staff of the
municipality have dispersed from this one lot, thereby freeing up more spaces for the employees of the
downtown businesses. However, inspections of the lot have indicated that these individuals frequently
park in the free lots. The BIA has indicated that they will forward a letter to its members requesting that all
employees park in the Church Street lot at the $2.00 per day flat rate. Previously, these employees were
purchasing a monthly parking pass at a cost of$50.00 plus applicable taxes. Paying $2.00 per day to park
in the Church Street lot saves each employee approximately $16.00 per month. During the meeting with
the BIA, concern was raised that the Church Street lot was quite often full when the downtown employees
arrive for work. Staff advised that if this should happen, the employees could pay the $2.00 at the central
meter, display the tag on their dash and park in the Division Street or Silver Street lots for the entire day
without the threat of being ticketed.
The resolution of Council stated that ticketing in the lots was only to be carried out on a complaint basis.
The BIA is satisfied with this arrangement and, should Council grant an extension to the pilot project, they
will continue to monitor the lots for vehicles parked in excess of the permitted three hours.
RECOMMENDATIONS
The merchants have indicated that their customers have commented that the free parking is a definite
attraction to shopping downtown. Although the municipality recognizes a loss of approximately $32,000
annually, staff are not opposed to the extension of the pilot project to the end of 1999. The time previously
spent by the Parking Enforcement Officer in monitoring these lots (approximately one to one and one half
hours per day) has been spent in other areas of the municipality investigating complaints. This is
evidenced by the increase of 375 more tickets issued in 1998 than in 1997.
7 UJ2
Report CD-07-99 -3- February 1, 1999
Should Council extend the pilot project until the end of 1999, a further report will be forthcoming early in
2000 to provide an update.

REPORT
Meeting: General Purpose and Administration Committee
File #:
Date: February 1, 1999
Res.#:
Report#: TR-4-99 File #:
Subject: By-Law#:
YEAR 2000
Recommendations:
It is respectfully recommended that the General Purpose and Administration Committee
recommend to Council the following:
1. THAT Report TR-4-99 be received;
2. THAT staff proceed immediately with the plan of action outlined in the body of this
report;
3. THAT as an interim measure, no municipal staff be permitted to!schedule vacation
time between!December 31, 1999 and January 7, 2090;
4. THAT no municipal facilities under the control of municipal staff be booked for
special events between December 31, 1999 and January 7, 2000; and
5. THAT a copy of this report be forwarded to all known external agencies that may
affect the public safety of the Municipality and all affiliated groups, including the
Recreation Boards, Newcastle and Orono Arenas, Museums, Library, the Older
Adult Centre and Youth Centre.
BACKGROUND AND COMMENT:
1.0 As Council is aware, the Y2K issue is not just an Information Technology problem, it
is a business'issue. The technical solution is an Information Technology function
and has been addressed in part, in prior Report TR=81-98 but the business solution
requires executive action. To measure the risk to the Corporation, staff are
attempting to identify each area where there may be a problem.' This issue involves
not only the Corporation's internal operation but also the vendors from whom goods
and/or services are purchased, as well as other organizations operating within the
U �
TR-4-99 Page —2 -
municipal boundaries. With the added problem of possible embedded chips in
equipment, the potential exists for the Y2K problem to affect everything from
electricity, water, vehicles, elevators, sprinkler systems, fax machines, copiers,
HVAC equipment and the list goes on and on.
1.1 The Municipality has a legal, as well as moral responsibility, to exercise due
diligence in attempting to identify and address as much as possible, any potential
hazards to public safety posed by the Y2K challenge. This includes possible
disruption to essential community services and the impact on our ability to respond
to a major emergency or to implement the Municipal Emergency Plan. The Ministry
of the Solicitor General and Correctional Services, which is responsible for
overseeing public safety across the Province through Emergency Measures Ontario,
is undertaking a number of projects to have its own mission and business critical
systems Y2K compliant at the earliest possible date. Also, the Ministry of Municipal
Affairs and Housing is focusing on Municipal efforts. They have been contacted to
provide information and contacts for consultants with expertise particular to the
Municipal environment. Due to the critical time factors and potential impacts, it is
now critical for Department Heads to take an active role in advising the Committee
and maintain an awareness of all Y2K activities.
1.2 The issue of staffing during the time period December 31, 1999 to January 7, 2000
is a crucial one. Many municipalities, including the Region of Durham, are currently
not permitting employees to schedule vacations over this time period. It is
recommended that until a detailed contingency plan is established and approved by
Council, that as an interim measure, no employees' vacation time be approved over
this time frame. The Year 2000 committee, in conjunction with Department Heads
will attempt to identify key positions and responsibilities that must be maintained and
report back to Council. Any employees who have already made financial
commitments for vacations during this time are requested to notify their respective
Department Head.
1.3 Currently, the Community Services Department has received several requests for
booking special events at the facilities during the New Year celebration. These
� V �
TR-4-99 Page—3 -
include the annual Firefighters New Year's Eve event as well as a major event on
January 2, 2000, sponsored by many of the area churches. A detailed contingency
plan for emergencies is not yet complete, however, it is likely that several of the
facilities may be necessary to be kept available in the event that emergency shelter
is required. These facilities will be identified by the Year 2000 committee in
conjunction with Department Heads, along with generator and food requirements as
part of the Municipality's contingency plan. Due to the unpredictable nature of the
Year 2000 issue, it is recommended that no special events be scheduled at the
facilities during the period of December 31, 1999 to January 7, 2000. Regular
bookings and swimming times can continue subject to short notice in the event of a
necessary cancellation.
1.4 Subsequent to Report TR-81-98 (requesting funding to address Y2K issues), the
Y2K Committee has identified the following as ideal objectives:
1 Public 'safety;
2. Minimize liability;
3; Minimize loss of revenue;
4. Preservation of current operations;
5. Minimize disruption to business;
6! Minimize conversion time, efforts and costs;
7. Maintain communication with staff, council, public (customers), vendors, and
business partners.
1.5 A Y2K proposed action plan has been developed and will be followed to the extent
possible:
1. Create a sub steering committee to expedite the process. Representatives
from Public Works, Fire, Community Services, Treasury and Property;
2 Assign individual committee members responsibilities;
3 Establish critical path for related activities;
4. Meet with representatives from Municipalities that are advanced in their Y2K
progress, ie:'Kingston, Richmond Hill, Thunder Bay, North Bay; re: their
progress to date, obstacles, etc.;
5. Develop training session for council, all employees, public in general,
tenants, municipal contractors and local vendors. Best efforts to maintain
communication with all parties;
6 Attempt to inventory items with potential Y2K problems;
7. Meet with the major utility companies to understand their'readiness and
contingency plans;
8 Identify in priority key suppliers and service providers, evaluate to the best
extent possible their impact on our ability to do business. Identify mission
critical'services or functions;
3
TR-4-99 Page —4 -
9. Identify mission critical situations that are possible in Clarington on
December 31, 1999;
10. Test systems once changes implemented;
11. Develop potential contingency plans;
12. Review and implement Municipal Emergency Plan to the extent possible for
public emergency;
13. Review staffing requirements for December 31, 1999.
1.6 The Y2K Committee will report back to Council with a proposed contingency plan, as
well as a communication package outlining public notification and telephone hotline
proposals.
1.7 With respect to the technology problems, the Computer Division has been working
on the Y2K issue for the last couple of years and has focused on getting both the
hardware and the software ready for the new millennium. The following is a partial
listing of the steps that we have taken to address Y2K compatibility for the
Municipality's computer systems:
• A complete desktop change over took place in the fall of 1997 where all the
workstations were replaced with Y2K compliant machines running Windows NT
and MS-Office 97;
• Email package was upgraded to Y2K compliant version;
• The tax system was replaced with Vailtech;
• Financials were made Y2K "capable" by 3C Computer Consultant on a transition
basis;
• New Payroll, HR and attendance applications were implemented;
• AutoCAD and Mapinfo applications were upgraded for Planning and Public
Works;
• In the process of implementing the GIS system to ensure Y2K compatibility of
several Planning and Public Works applications.
1.8 The following is a partial list of existing applications that are not Y2K compliant that
we are working on either replacing or making modifications for Y2K compliance:
• Fire Dispatch system;
• Community Services program registration and facilities scheduling;
• Several Clerks applications including their Record Management System, Bylaw,
Animal Control and other custom written applications;
• Fleet management/maintenance application for Public Works Hampton;
b 4
TR-4-99 Page-5 -
The ultimate goal is to deal with all of these issues,however as the Year 2000
approaches and any unforeseeable delays occur, prioritizing may become
necessary.
CONCLUSION:
20 Although funding was approved by Council in 1998(TR-81-98) for various systems'
applications, should any other operational equipment expenses be revealed as a
result of the Y2K Committee work, funding will be addressed in the 1999 budget
process. The Committee will consider the engagement of municipal consultants to
assist in the extensive Y2K issues over the balance of the year.
In summary, the Y2K Committee recommends that Council endorses the above action plan
to be put into place immediately.

Meeting: General Purpose and Administration Committee

Date: February 1, 1999
Res.*
Report#: TR-7-99 File #:
By-Law#:
Subject:
INSURANCE POOLING STATUS UPDATE
Recommendations:.
It is respectfully recommended the General Purpose and Administration Committee
recommend to Council the following:
1. THAT Report TR-7-99 be received;
2. THAT Council endorse the Municipality of Clarington proceeding with an
insurance pooling arrangement with the Region of Durham and other area
municipalities, the Durham Municipal Group, beginning with the premium year
1999/2090, subject to terms and conditions of the agreement being
satisfactory to the Treasurer and Chief Administrative Officer;
3. THAT the Mayor and Clerk be authorized to enter into the Agreement prior to
July 1, 1999; and
4. THAT the appropriate By-law be forwarded to Council for approval.
Background:
1.0 Since the 1994/1995 premium year, the area municipalities, in conjunction with the
Region of Durham have been investigating the potential''associated with insurance
pooling.
1.1 In Report TR-46-98 (Attachment#1), Council authorized the Treasurer, as a member
of the Durham Municipal Group to continue to pursue this opportunity.
1.2 Dion, Durrell and Associates were contracted by the Region to conduct an
independent actuarial study to determine the feasibility of pooled insurance for the
Durham Municipal Group.
1.3 As a part of this independent study, the current program was analyzed as shown in
Attachment#2. Clearly shown in the second chart are the premium increases from
TR-7-99 Page —2 —
the current insurance provider over a five (5) year time period compared to the loss
ratio. There is a substantial gap between these two values representing the
significant surplus of premiums over losses paid.
1.4 As a result of the report by Dion, Durrell and Associates, it is recommended that the
Durham Municipal Group proceed with a pooled insurance arrangement. This is not a
reciprocal such as OMEX. It is simply combining resources as a municipal group to
purchase insurance co-operatively based on agreed upon criteria. It eliminates the
profit, administration and overhead costs of a "middle man".
1.5 The Region of Waterloo has successfully launched its own insurance pool and has
made their experience and expertise available to the Durham Municipal Group.
1.6 The operation of a pool will virtually be no different than that of the current insurance
provider. Pool participants pay their annual premium installments each year and are
only responsible for their individual deductibles when a claim occurs. Any claim in
excess of the pool limit is covered by a purchased group policy, therefore, covering
liability associated with any significant claim. All legal and adjusting fees would be
included in the total claim costs and are therefore not a separate individual
responsibility. The pool funding would be structured such that there would not be any
significant risk of additional assessments against the pool participants.
1.7 The ultimate administrative structure will be developed co-operatively between the
Municipalities with the assistance of Dion, Durrell and Associates.
Conclusion:
2.0 Insurance pooling represents an opportunity for substantial cost savings over the long
term for the Durham Municipal Group by eliminating excessive premium costs and
providing control to the municipalities over their insurance program.
2.1 It is therefore recommended that the Municipality of Clarington proceed in conjunction
with the Durham Municipal Group, to establish an insurance pooling arrangement.

Reco endations:
is respectfully recommended that the General Purpose and Administration Committee
recommend to Council the following
1. THAT Report TR-46-98 be received;
2• THAT the presentation of Mr. David Reed'from Frank Cowan Company Limited be
acknowledged and received with thanks; and
3. THAT Frank Cowan Company Limited continue to be retained as the Municipality of
Clarington's insurance carriers for the period from July 1, 1998 to June 30 1999,
under the Durham Municipal Group Insurance Program at an approximate cost of
$260,749 plus applicable taxes; and
4. TILAT the Durham Municipal Group, in preparation of the 1999/2000 premium year,
commence a detailed investigation of an insurance pooling arrangement with the area
municipalities and the Region of Durham for implementation July 1, 1999.
BACKGROUND & COMMENTS
1.0 In preparation for the 1994/1995 premium year, the area municipalities in conjunction
with the Region of Durham undertook an investigation of the potential associated with
bull: co-operative purchasing, pooling of funds and reciprocal insurance.
1.1 As a result of this investigation, it was concluded that the Regional/Municipal Group
were not at a sufficient stage of development to be able to efficiently;or effectively
administer the extreme move to a fully self-funded pooling arrangement as it would
require central co-ordination of all policies, additional expert staffing and significant
administrative cost.
1.2 At a Spring 1996 meeting of the Durham Municipal Group, presentations and
discussions took place regarding insurance pooling with purchased reinsurance to -
reduwe the risk to the participating Municipalities.
8i
TIZ-46-98 PAGE 2
13 The Region of Durham financed the cost to update the actuarial study done in 1994 to
determine the viability of an insurance pooling arrangement.
1 .4 Per Report TR-60-97, Frank Cowan Company Limited was retained as provider for the
Durham Municipal Group Insurance Program for the 1997/1998 premium year.
However it was also recommended that the Durham Municipal Group continue to
investigate insurance pooling as well as any other insurance alternatives.
1.5 In light of the investigation of other insurance alternatives, Frank Cowan Company has
presented an overall decrease in the renewal rate from the 1997/1998 premium year by
8.0%. In addition Cowan has offered a guarantee that rates will not exceed the current
level subject to our commitment to renew with the Frank Cowan Company for three
successive one year terms and our agreement to defer any market search for that three
year period.
1.6 At a May 1998 meeting of the Durham Municipal Group, it was agreed that insurance
pooling remains a viable option in the long term and this arrangement needs to be
investigated in greater detail. Therefore the Region and area municipalities agreed to
renew with Frank Cowan Company for one year and to proceed with the investigation
of an insurance pooling arrangement. Final recommendations in this regard will be
brought to council in advance of the renewal date for the 1999/2000 premium year.
SELF-INSURED LOSSES RESERVE
2.0 Annually, any surplus resulting from the comparison of premium year budget to actual
cost is transferred into the self-insured losses reserve. For the 1997;1998 premium
year, there was no unexpended budget remaining to be transferred into the reserve.
This is primarily a result of budget constraints as well as payments to our insurance
adjusters handling an increased number of claims and deductible payments for the
settlement of prior year's claims.
2.1 The self-insured losses reserve is intended to cover costs associated with insurance
claims below the Municipality's deductible amount, as well as fund the payment of the
deductible. Consistent with the levels established over the past few years, it is
recommended that the current levels be maintained as follows: the property deductible
of S10,000 and the boiler and machinery deductible of$5,000. A copy of the summary
of policy levels and deductibles is shown in attachment #1. As of December 31, 1997,
the balance in the reserve was $135,916 (1996 - $114,197). The total draw on the
reserve in 1997 was $13,281 as where possible, deductible payments were charged
directly to the insurance operating account. There was also a budgeted contribution of
S35.000 to the self-insured losses reserve in 1997.

Addendum#2 to
Report #: Report CD-34-97 By-law #
Subject: LONG-TERM SERVICE AND RETIREMENT
It is respectfully recommended that the General Purpose and Administration Committee recommend to
Council:
1. THAT Addendum#2 to Report CD-34-97 be received; and
j2. THAT the Municipality of Clarington's Long-Term Service and Retirement Policy be amended to
provide for the presentation of service pins rather than plaques for 5, 10, 15 and 20 years service
I
and watches for 25 years service.
I
BACKGROUND AND COMMENT:
At the Council meeting held on June 29, 1998, the Addendum to Report CD-34-97 was approved, which
adopted a policy to recognize long-term service and retirement of its staff. That policy provides for the
presentation of plaques to employees who have attained 5, 10, 15 and 20 years of service. In preparing
for the first event, it was determined that the plaques were cost prohibitive (approximately$60.00 per
plaque). As well, staff indicated that they would prefer to have a service pin rather than a plaque. The
pins each cost(approximately) $25.00 for silver and $100.00 for gold. Because of staff's preference and
the difference in the cost between the plaques and the pins, it is recommended that the policy adopted in
June 1998 be amended to reflect a change from plaques to silver pins for recognition of 5, 10 and 15 years
of service and gold pins to recognize 20 years service. The original policy also states that either a ring or a
watch will be presented in recognition of 25 years service. Once again, at a cost of between $300.00 and
$400.00 each, rings are cost prohibitive. Therefore, it is recommended that watches be presented to
recognize this milestone. A copy of the policy, incorporating the recommended amendment, is included as
Attachment No. 1.
ANNUALEVENT
The adopted policy provides for a wine and cheese party (and cash bar) to be held each year on the last
Thursday of March. This year, the event is planned for the Garnet B. Rickard Recreation Complex on
March 25, 1999 from 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m.
Addendum#2 to Report CD-34-97 - 2- February 1, 1999
This being the first recognition event, some 150 staff members are being honoured, ie:
62- 5 year pins
47- 10 year pins
14- 15 year pins
11 - 20 year pins
10-25 year(watches)
The cost of the pins and watches (including artwork) is estimated to be $6,500. In subsequent years; the
cost of awards will be substantially lower as there will not be as many employees recognized each year. In
order to prepare for the function, costing has been estimated on 200 attendees, as follows:
Cheese and Crackers -$260.00
Wine - $360.00
Rentals - $500.00
Bar - $650.00 (may be recovered from bar receipts)
As stated in the June 1998 report, the expenditures for the evening will be budgeted in a special account
under Unclassified Administration.
