This resolution requested that staff report back at the November 9, 2020, General Government Committee meeting with an estimated cost to include a new off -leash dog park in North Bowmanville for the 2021 budget. This resolution also requested that an estimate be provided to install LED lighting for the new North Bowmanville off -leash dog park as a Schedule B, Budget option. At the November 2, 2020, Council meeting, resolutions C-438-20 to C-440-20, as amended, were introduced. These resolutions referred the costing for the new off - leash dog park and the associated LED lighting directly to the 2021 Budget. The resolution further requested that LED lighting costs for Clarington's other existing off -leash facilities also be included in the 2021 Budget, as Schedule B options. This correspondence is intended to provide Council with background information regarding the development of a new off -leash dog park in North Bowmanville and the associated LED lighting costs in advance of the 2021 budget discussions. Background The Municipality of Clarington currently has three off -leash dog parks that are located in the urban areas of Courtice, Bowmanville and Newcastle. The size of each existing park is roughly 5,000 m2 in Courtice, 10,000 m2 in Bowmanville and 5,750 m2 in Newcastle. In June, 2020, Council approved the Outdoor Recreation Needs Assessment (ORNA) for the Municipality. This report identifies the proposed type and number of additional outdoor recreation facilities that are expected to be needed in Clarington over the next 15 years. These additional facilities are recommended to suitably keep pace with the proposed changes to Clarington's population and the anticipated trends in outdoor recreation facility use. The Corporation of the Municipality of Clarington, 40 Temperance Street, Bowmanville, ON Ll C 3A6 1-800-563-1195 1 Local:905-623-3379 1 info@clarington.net I www.clarington.net Page 28 Clarington MEMO The North Bowmanville area is expected to grow by approximately 19,000 residents over the next ten years. As a result of the proposed growth the ORNA has recommended the construction of a new off -leash park in North Bowmanville. This additional park is proposed to help balance geographic distribution with the existing leash -free park that is presently located in South Bowmanville. The implementation strategy outlined within the ORNA suggests that the additional off -leash park should be constructed between the years 2020 to 2025. At this time, however, the funding for an additional off -leash dog park has not been identified within the current Capital Program as either a future Development Charges or a Tax Levy expense. Preferred North Bowmanville Off -Leash Park Locations Council Resolution #GG-373-20 noted three preferred sites for the location of a new off -leash dog park in North Bowmanville. The opportunity to develop a site at each of these locations has been reviewed and the findings are provided as follows: 1. The North end of the Former Bowmanville Zoo Lands As shown in Figure 1 below, a future Municipal park is proposed on the former Zoo lands that could include a splash pad, soccer field and basketball court. The layout of these facilities, however, still needs to be determined. Design considerations for a new dog park at this location would also require the construction of a 40 space vehicle parking lot that typically would not be permitted on floodplain areas. The creation of a new off -leash dog park of comparable size to the existing facilities in Courtice and Newcastle should be planned concurrently with the overall design of the future proposed park. Development of this new park will require consultation with CLOCA and the Public in addition to significant budget requirements. Given that the Municipality of Clarington presently does not have ownership of the former Bowmanville Zoo lands and the actual date of transfer is still unclear at this time the construction of a new dog park at this location is likely to occur beyond 2021.

As shown on the aerial photograph below, Figure 5, this site would allow for a 6,100 m2 facility with a 1,000 m2 small dog area and a 40 space parking lot. CLOCA has been contacted about this proposal and are interested in having further discussions with the Municipality about entering into a lease agreement to utilize the property for such purposes. The estimated cost to construct this facility would be $235,000, plus HST. The cost to provide lighting at the site is based on the design concept of an available power supply from the existing street lights on the north side of Longworth Avenue. Cable would be direct buried into the facility to feed two lights on the south side of the dog park and one each on the west and east sides. The approximate cost to include this upgrade would be an additional $41,000, plus HST.

As shown on the plan below, this site would allow for a 6,000 m2 facility with a 1,000 m2 small dog area and a 40 space parking lot. Given that the location is zoned Environmental Protection and that the site is located directly adjacent to a local residential area consultation with the Public and CLOCA would be critical. The estimated cost to construct this facility would be $215,000, plus HST. The expected cost to provide lighting at this site is based on the design concept of an available power supply from an existing transformer on the north side of Cotton Street to a meter base and power supply cabinet. Cable would be direct buried into the facility to two lights on the south side of the dog park. The approximate cost to include this upgrade would be an additional $22,000, plus HST. -7t Figure 6: Potential Dog Park site north of Cotton Street The Corporation of the Municipality of Clarington, 40 Temperance Street, Bowmanville, ON Ll C 3A6 1-800-563-1195 1 Local:905-623-3379 1 info@clarington.net I www.clarington.net Page 35 Clarftwn LED Lighting for Existing Dog Park Locations MEMO The cost to provide LED lighting at the three existing Clarington dog parks is based on connecting into an existing power source from adjacent sportsfield or parking lot lighting. Cable would be direct buried into each facility to supply new efficient flood lighting systems. The cost to include LED lighting upgrades at the Courtice and Bowmanville dog parks is estimated at approximately $40,000 each, plus HST. Due to the need for a longer underground cable run into the Newcastle dog park the estimated cost is $50,000, plus HST. Provisions for these lighting upgrades will be included in the 2021 Capital Budget as Schedule B considerations.

The resolution was borne out of the delegation of Mr. Dave Bass citing concern regarding vehicle speeds and requesting that the intersection be made into an All -Way STOP controlled intersection and that Granville Drive have a speed reduction to 40km/h. Granville Drive is a 2-lane urban local class roadway aligned north -south that experiences an annual average daily traffic (AADT) volume of approximately 1,200 vehicles. William Ingles Drive is a 2-lane urban local class roadway aligned east -west that experiences an AADT volume of approximately 250 vehicles. Both roadways were constructed in 2012 as part of the local subdivision. Having recently been constructed the Granville Drive road approaches are in good condition, comprised of a dedicated travel lane, sidewalk on the east side of the road and direct frontage of residential properties on the east side. There are streetlight poles along the east boulevard and there is an absence of any other obstructions with the exception of young boulevard trees. The intersection approaches are open and clear, free of sight line obstructions, and are typically free of glare caused by the rising or setting sun. The William Ingles road approach is in good condition comprised of a dedicated travel lane, sidewalk on the north side of the road and is fronted by single family residential properties on each side. There are streetlight poles along the north boulevard and an absence of any other obstructions with the exception of young boulevard trees. The eastbound STOP control at the Granville Dr. intersection is marked by a regulatory STOP sign. The intersection approaches are open and clear, free of sight line obstructions, and may be subject to glare caused by the rising sun. Page 11 The Corporation of the Municipality of Clarington 40 Temperance Street, Bowmanville ON L1 C 3A6 1 905-623-3379 Page 37 C1a1!W9t0J7 Memo The existing intersection currently meets all requirements per Clarington's modified Ontario Traffic Manual (OTM) guidelines which are regarded as the regulatory basis for safe and required measures to be implemented on roadways. No accident history has been reported to Durham Regional Police Service (DRPS) at this intersection. Radar message boards were deployed on Granville Drive in 2019 for both northbound and southbound traffic to review vehicle speeds, which was shown to be in compliance with averages in the high-30km/h to 40km/h range and an 85th percentile speed (the speed at which 85% of vehicles travel at or under) of high-40km/h. Staff undertook a deployment of our discreet speed radar units from November 25, 2020 to December 02, 2020 that are not apparent to motorists in an attempt to get unbiased speed radar data. Data from this discreet deployment shows that average speed during this duration was 38km/h with an 85th percentile speed of 46km/h which correlates with previous data taken. These radar units additionally and specifically log the speeds and number of vehicles that travel over the assigned speed limit which is an unposted regulatory limit of 50km/h for Granville Dr. It was recorded that approximately 5% of all vehicles travelling on this road were travelling in excess of 50km/h with an average speed of 55km/h. The speeds recorded indicate that vehicles are travelling at speeds below the unposted regulatory speed limit for the majority and at speeds whereby adequate sight distance is available for a vehicle to come to a complete stop should a pedestrian or joining vehicle enter the roadway abruptly. The delegation of Mr. Dave Bass received by Council cited vehicle speeds as a concern and the main reason for the request for an All -Way STOP control at this intersection. In order to install such traffic control devices Provincial guidelines must be followed. These Provincial guidelines specifically prohibit the use of an All -Way STOP as a speed control device and also dictate minimum traffic volume and traffic volume split criteria for an All -Way STOP. Adhering to these guidelines is critical in having an All -Way STOP operate safely and in meeting the expectations of all road users without compromising safety. All -Way STOP controls are intended to be used to assign the right of way at intersections, not as a speed control device. Inappropriate or unwarranted implementation and use of this STOP control can lead to drivers disobeying the STOP control putting pedestrians and other motorists at risk, drivers speeding up to make up lost time, etc. The intersection of Granville Dr. and William Ingles Dr. has a significantly skewed traffic volume in favor of Granville Dr. which is expected as Granville Dr. acts as a connection between Sandringham Dr. and Meadowglade Rd. which are a collector and a Type `C' arterial road respectively with higher volumes of traffic. William Ingles Dr. is a short curving road with access points on Meadowglade Dr. and Granville Dr. servicing 43 residential units and provides access to Glenabbey Park. Due to the significant volume Page 12 The Corporation of the Municipality of Clarington 40 Temperance Street, Bowmanville ON L1 C 3A6 1 905-623-3379 Page 38 C1a1!W9t0J7 Memo skew it is unlikely that traffic volume split criteria will ever be met to warrant an All -Way STOP control implementation due to the inability for growth on William Ingles Dr. The Southeast Courtice Secondary Plan, which is currently in the draft stage of development, will see the continuation of Granville Dr. south of the future Meadowglade Dr. extension to Trulls Rd. As Meadowglade Dr. is a Type `C' arterial road per the Clarington Official Plan, it will have priority through movements with the expectation that Granville Dr. will be subjected to a north/south STOP control. It is anticipated that vehicles currently utilizing Granville Dr. to access Trulls Rd. via Yorkville Dr. or Sandringham Dr. will be redirected along the Meadowglade Rd. extension as a direct access point thereby reducing vehicle volumes on Granville Dr. The implementation of an additional STOP control, such as the one requested at William Ingles Dr., within very close proximity to a priority STOP control (approximately 100m) may lead to driver impatience and disregard for the secondary STOP control at William Ingles Dr., especially if intersecting volumes are low or not present. This has the potential to elicit problematic roll through movement behaviour or cause motorists to generally disregard the traffic control device as there is nothing to prompt a driver to come to a stop, assess approaching traffic, and yield the right of way. This has been seen to occur and be problematic elsewhere within the Municipality and DRIPS has noted that the problem exists Region -wide and is not just characteristic to the Municipality of Clarington. Public Works staff do not support the implementation of an All -Way STOP at the Granville Drive and William Ingles Drive intersection based on traffic volume, lack of prior accidents, and future development. As mentioned previously and as per the Provincial warrant criteria, speed control is not a factor when considering the implementation of an All -Way STOP control as it compromises safety and the effectiveness of the control. Instead, to address Mr. Dave Bass' speed concerns, staff will deploy speed radar capture devices along Granville Dr. routinely to observe if the area has changed since our last analysis. Should any data that is collected be of significant variance from date previously collected, staff will provide an updated memo to Council on our findings and recommendations. Staff will additionally flag this area to DRPS for their review and possible enforcement if there are individual motorists exhibiting routine aggressive or dangerous driving behaviour. Regarding Resolution #C-462-20 and the report on decreasing the speed limit to 40km/h on all Clarington Neighbourhood Collector B roads, Public Works staff will report back to the February 16, 2021 General Government Committee Meeting on this item.

The rates are being proposed for a 6 month trail with Page 46 the opening of just the north room. Discussions was held. The main concern risen was the cost associated with reopening and if a potential renter would be willing to pay the rate with such a small group being allowed in the space. Motion was made to open the north room November 15Y with the understanding that we would be required to spend up to $200 for required cleaning and PPE equipment, the rental fee is upped to $400 maximum for the day and minimum of $200 to include the cleaning fee, or $65 per hour if not required for a long period of time.

This resolution provided direction for staff to report back regarding the installation of stairs going into the ravine near Mearns Avenue and Longworth Avenue. As shown on the attached plan, the installation of a timber frame staircase leading into the ravine at the eastern terminus of Longworth Avenue, south-east of house #273, represents a total distance of approximately 42 metres. This staircase would require the construction of 7 transition platforms and 7 stair sections to traverse the existing 31 percent slope. Based on an internal estimate, the approximate cost for this project, including permit fees, would be between $70,000.00 and $75,000.00. 2. The staircase would be accessed through the Municipal property located directly adjacent to #273 Longworth Avenue. This access exists for the periodic entry of equipment to maintain the on -site Stormwater Management Pond. The costs to upgrade the surface of the existing pathway, complete grass cutting and provide regular winter maintenance on the stairs have not been included with the estimate. 3. The staircase itself would be constructed on lands that are designated environmentally protected. Any further design and construction considerations would require input and approval from the necessary conservation authorities.

This section of Main St has a posted speed of 60 km/h, narrow lanes, a steep gradient, and very little shoulder in some places. It is understandable that pedestrians do not feel comfortable walking on the road. An extensive safety review was not conducted in preparation of this memo. The Region of Durham's 2020 Capital Budget and Nine Year Forecast includes rehabilitation/reconstruction of Main St from Winter Rd to Station St in the forecast for construction in 2024, subject to annual review of the budget and competing priorities. If the sidewalk construction is completed as part of the Region's project, the Region would be responsible for the cost of providing the sidewalk platform and Clarington would only be responsible for the cost of the concrete sidewalk. In this case, the cost of the sidewalk would be approximately $50,000. It should be noted that the Region has initiated a road rationalization process and Main St is a candidate to be taken over by the Municipality of Clarington. Public Works will be preparing a report to Council to discuss the road rationalization process at an upcoming General Government Committee meeting. If construction of the sidewalk is required prior to the Region's planned roadworks, the Municipality of Clarington could construct a sidewalk at our cost, subject to review by the Region of Durham. Staff have completed a preliminary design of the sidewalk for the purpose of determining an approximate cost. It is assumed that a similar road width would be required at the south end of Main St as was recently constructed on Main St north of the village. The Corporation of the Municipality of Clarington, 40 Temperance Street, Bowmanville, ON Ll C 3A6 1-800-563-1195 1 Local:905-623-3379 1 info@clarington.net I www.clarington.net Page 60 Clarftwn MEMO Construction of sidewalk on the west side would require a widening of the road to provide adequate lane widths, concrete curb and gutter, and a retaining wall south of Sommerville Dr. The cost would be approximately $330,000. Sidewalk on the east side would require pedestrians to cross Main St at Mill Pond Rd, and would impact parking for residents who currently park on the east side of the road. Construction would require concrete curb and gutter, catch basins to connect to the storm sewer on the west side of the road, and replacement of guide rail. The cost would be approximately $240,000. Staff seek direction from Council to either include the sidewalk for consideration in the 2021 Capital budget, or to consider the project as part of the future rehabilitation/reconstruction of Main St and the road rationalization process.

Clarington therefore, has not considered this request formally and has not approved Port Hope Council's request. As discussed, please find accept this email as a request for Clarington Council to consider a resolution of support to allow for an amendment to the Legal Agreement to permit the transfer of waste from Port Granby to Port Hope long term waste management facility, and further to limit acceptance to Port Granby waste only. Enclosed is Port Hope Council Resolution 67 2020 in support of an amendment to the Legal Agreement. This amendment will require agreement from all signatories. Canada is poised to prepare the necessary amendment to the Legal Agreement pending Clarington Council's acceptance. The amendment will be subsequently circulated to both Municipalities for approval and adoption by bylaw. Trust the above is in order and I understand this matter can potentially be added to Clarington Council GGC Agenda for January 4, 2021.

These updates are required as a direct result of changes to the road network and in order for Clarington Municipal Law Enforcement and Durham Regional Police Service officers to effectively enforce the current By-law. 1. Background 1.1. The purpose of Traffic and Parking By-law 2014-059 is to regulate traffic and parking on Clarington highways, municipal parking lots and certain parking aspects on private property. Since the Traffic and Parking By-law 2014-059 came into effect, including its amending By-laws 2014-105, 2016-061, 2018-105, 2019-042, 2020-026 and 2020-055, there have been several new changes to field conditions. These are a result of the on- going housekeeping and maintenance activities, as well as changes due to development, construction changing traffic patterns or other By-laws. Proposed updates to the respective Schedules of By-law 2014-059 are included in Attachment 1. 2. Overview of changes to Schedules 1, 2, 9, 10, 12 and 17 2.1. Schedule 1 — No Stopping Changes include: • Cove Road and Cedar Crest Beach Road intersection area — Housekeeping adjustment of No Stopping signage to more accurately reflect field conditions, at the request of Municipal Law Enforcement Officers (MLEO). King Lane at M. J. Hobbs School — As an indirect result of King Lane reconstruction, and in discussion with the school principal, field conditions were adjusted to permit more drop off/pick up space on the east side of King Lane, due to the shoulder being more suitable for stopping, while restricting stopping on west side, due to the school driveways, bus access, recent ditch work and future traffic signals at Taunton Road. Parkway Crescent at St. Joseph Elementary School — Adjustment of parking and stopping restrictions due to school related traffic, as discussed with school officials, residents in the immediate area and MLEO. The school offers no parking on -site and has been utilizing the existing paved boulevard for drop off/pick up. Changes include replacing some of the No Stopping areas with No Parking, to allow drop off/pick up of students on the school side without violating Page 79 Municipality of Clarington Report PW D-001-21 Page 3 the By-law.

Schedule 17 — Turning Movements Prohibited Changes include: • Parkway Crescent at St. Joseph Elementary School — New No U-Turn restrictions along school frontage, as discussed with school officials, residents in the immediate area and MLEO.

Report To: General Government Committee Date of Meeting: January 4, 2021 Submitted By: Steve Brake, Director of Public Works Reviewed By: Andrew C. Allison, CAO File Number: Report Subject: Contracted Winter Control Services Recommendations: 1. That Report PWD-002-21 be received; Report Number: PWD-002-21 Resolution#: By-law Number: 2. That Council provide direction to staff by selecting one of the following options: a. That Todd Brothers Contracting Limited with a potential contract value of $3,353,897.66 (based on per hour pricing) being the low compliant bidder meeting all terms, conditions and specifications of CL2020-30 be awarded the contract for the Provision of Winter Control Services for an initial seven-year term with up to two additional one year terms as required by the Municipality; or b. That Council approve the cancellation of Tender CL2020-30 for Winter Control Services and the issuance of a tender for the replacement of four end of service life combination plow trucks that were previously requested in the 2019 and 2020 Capital Budget submissions but have been deferred pending the outcome of the contacted service investigation. Page162 Municipality of Clarington Report PWD-002-21 Report Overview Page 2 Report PWD-004-20 addresses Council resolution GG-137-20, as amended. This resolution that was carried at the regular meeting of June 15, 2020, directed staff to tender for Winter Control Services based on an hourly and also a per kilometer basis. This report provides the results of Tender CL2020-30 for the contracting out of Winter Control Services. 1. Background 1.1 At the regular General Government Committee meeting held on January 6, 2020, Council was presented with Report OPD-001-20. The recommendations contained within this report included a request for Council to provide direction for staff to issue a tender to contract out several snow plow routes. 1.2 At the regular meeting of January 20, 2020, Council approved Resolution C-022-20 that directed staff to issue a tender to contract out snow plow routes to commence on November 1, 2020. 1.3 Tender specifications for this work were prepared by the former Operations Department and provided to the Purchasing Services Division. The scope of contracted service included the plowing of four winter control routes or approximately 100 kilometers of Class 2-5 roadway. The tender also requested pricing on a number of other supplementary winter control items for possible future use but they were not included in the final bid summary. 1.4 At the regular meeting of June 15, 2020, the results of Tender CL2020-13 were presented to Council in Report OPD-002-20. The tender document stipulated that bidders should submit pricing as a per kilometer rate to enhance contract administration and to provide better clarity on invoicing. 1.5 At the regular meeting of June 15, 2020, Council approved Resolution GG-137-20, as amended, which referred the tender for Winter Control Services back to staff to retender and stipulate that bidders should submit pricing as an hourly rate in addition to a per kilometer rate. 1.6 On October 22, 2020, Request for Tender CL2020-30 was issued by the Purchasing Services Division and advertised electronically on the Municipality's website. Notification of the availability of the document was also placed on the Ontario Public Buyer's Association Website. 1.7 Fifteen companies downloaded the tender document. Page163 Municipality of Clarington Page 3 Report PWD-002-21 2. Analysis 2.1 The tender closed on November 10, 2020. 2.2 Five submissions were received in response to the tender call. The bids were reviewed and tabulated by the Purchasing Services Division (See Attachment 1). Three submissions were deemed compliant and two were deemed non -compliant. One of the non -compliant bids was due to the limited experience of the bidder for the completion of similar work in the past while the other did not complete the Agreement to Bond form properly. 2.3 The ten companies that downloaded the tender document but did not submit a bid were contacted by the Purchasing Services Division to determine why they chose not to bid. The responses were as follows: • One company does not believe in per event/per km pricing • One company is a Construction Association • One company does not have the resources available • One company stated that their proximity to the Municipality was too far to manage effectively • Once company does not provide a specific type of service i.e. sidewalk work only • One company is a subcontractor only • Four companies did not respond to the request for information 2.4 The results were forwarded by the Purchasing Services Division to the Public Works Department for review and consideration. The low, compliant bid is from Todd Brothers Contracting Limited for an estimated $376,486.56 (Net HST Rebate) based on per kilometer pricing or $372,655.30 (Net HST Rebate) based on per hour pricing for one year. The initial term is a seven-year contract with up to two additional one-year terms. 2.5 The tender bid amount provides for the supply of four Combination Units (Sand/Salt/Plow Trucks) and licensed operators to carry out the salting and plowing work required. Costs requested were based on an estimated annual number of 22 full winter call -outs per year over a potential nine year contract term that would expire on March 31, 2030. 2.6 The annual cost per truck for the contracted service has been calculated to be $92,493.75 per km pricing and $91,552.50 per hour pricing. It should be noted that this Page164 Municipality of Clarington Report PWD-002-21 Page 4 amount is considerably higher than the estimated in-house annual snow plowing cost of $66,894.75 per truck that was previously outlined on Table 1 of Operations Department Report OPD-001-20. 2.7 The cost differential based on per km pricing represents an increase of $25,598.97 per truck or $102,395.88 per year. The cost differential based on per hour pricing represents an increase of $24,657.75 per truck or $98,630.88 per year for the initial four routes to be contracted out. 3. Concurrence This report has been reviewed by the Director of Financial Services who concurs with the recommendations. 4. Conclusion 4.1 The primary benefit of considering the contracting out of snow plow routes was to achieve savings through the reduction of in-house costs related to the initial purchase of vehicles, the servicing of equipment and the amount of staff overtime incurred. Prior to tendering, it was envisioned that the service delivery model could potentially create good public value through the optimization of the Public Works Department fleet. 4.2 The creation of other winter control efficiencies within the Public Works Department are currently underway. These efforts include a major review change to the hierarchal design of snow plow routes, the introduction of shifts for staff and the development of a new protocol to initiate winter control responses. These changes are expected to greatly reduce overtime costs when implemented for the 2021/2022 winter control season. In addition, staff are also currently investigating a partnership with one of our local academic institutions to utilize GIS software in an effort to complete a peer review of our snow plow route optimization.

Allison, CAO Resolution#: File Number: By-law Number: Report Subject: Stuart Park Tennis Courts Recommendations: 1. That Report PWD-003-21 be received; 2. That Council provide staff with direction on the following potential upgrades: a) That the Guildwood Park tennis courts be resurfaced. b) That the Stuart Park tennis courts and basketball court be resurfaced. c) That one of the Stuart Park tennis courts be re -configured to provide for up to four pickleball courts. d) That lighting be provided on the Stuart Park basketball and tennis/pickleball courts; and 3.

Page167 Municipality of Clarington Report PWD-003-21 Report Overview Page 2 This report addresses Council resolution #GG-217-20 that was carried at the June 22, 2020 General Government Committee meeting. The resolution specifically directed staff to undertake contracted tennis court repairs at the Avondale Park and Guildwood Park locations as well as host a Public Information Center to receive feedback on the Stuart Park tennis courts. This document provides a summary of the public responses such that staff can include the proposed upgrades in the 2021 capital budget. 1. Background 1.1 At the regular General Government Committee Meeting held on June 1, 2020, Council passed resolution #GG-131-20. This resolution requested that staff report back before summer break on capital improvements to the Stuart Park tennis courts, and other tennis courts in Clarington, as well as other infrastructure projects which may be included within related budgetary allowances. 1.2 At the June 22, 2020 regular General Government Committee Meeting, staff presented Report OPD-005-20. This report provided a conditional assessment of all public tennis courts in Clarington and requested approval to undertake contracted repairs as well receive direction to host a Public Information Center regarding possible upgrades to the Stuart Park Tennis Courts. 1.3 At the regular General Government Committee Meeting held on June 22, 2020, Council passed resolution #GG-217-20 providing this direction. 2. Discussion 2.1 During the summer of 2020 staff completed the tennis court improvements recommended within report OPD-005-20. These improvements included the general clean-up of court surfaces, gate adjustments, fencing repairs, brush removal, tree pruning and the replacement of worn-out line markings. The court surface repair proposed for Guildwood Park, however, could not be undertaken due to the absence of a budget to contract out the necessary resurfacing requirements. 2.2 Due to the on -going COVID-19 pandemic, a traditional Public Information Center could not be hosted by Public Works staff in 2020 to discuss the existing tennis courts in Stuart Park and to receive feedback regarding the proposed upgrades. Page168 Municipality of Clarington Report PWD-003-21 Page 3 2.3 In lieu of hosting the Public Information Center, staff circulated a letter of project intent (Attachment 1) to all residents within the Emily Stowe Community (Attachment 2) on December 1, 2020. Stuart Park is considered the Neighbourhood Park within this residential area of just under 1,800 homes and would be the nearest tennis court location for residents within this community. 2.4 In an effort to gather the necessary public feedback regarding Stuart Park, and more specifically the on -site tennis courts, the residents of the community were provided with a link to a short on-line survey. The survey consisted of five direct questions regarding their use of Stuart Park, the amenities that require improvement and whether provisions for pickleball and court surface lighting should be made. 2.5 A meeting was also held by staff at the Stuart Park tennis courts on November 4, 2020, with a group of approximately 30 pickleball enthusiasts. This group is strongly advocating for the allocation of dedicated pickleball courts on the Stuart Park tennis courts, if the proposed resurfacing project is approved. This request is also consistent with the recommendations of the recently approved Clarington Outdoor Recreation Needs Assessment (ORNA) Study. 2.6 Although the basketball court at Stuart Park was not part of the initial scope of this project review, the facility was reviewed by staff on November 4, 2020. Due to the presence of a number of large cracks in the existing asphalt playing surface the basketball court is deemed to be in greater need of rehabilitation than the tennis courts. 3. Analysis 3.1 A total of 64 individuals responded to the on-line survey prior it's closing at 4:00 p.m. on Friday, December 11, 2020. The summary of results is provided as follows: • 72% of the respondents suggested that they visit Stuart Park at least once a week. • The amenities used the most at Stuart Park are greenspace, trails, tennis courts, basketball court, playground and baseball field in that order. • The tennis and basketball courts were identified by the community to have the greatest need of rehabilitation • 77% of respondents supported reconfiguring one tennis court into multiple pickleball courts. • 69% of respondents supported the provision of lighting on the tennis/pickleball and basketball courts. Page169 Municipality of Clarington Page 4 Report PWD-003-21 3.2 The majority of respondents did not provide any additional comments, however, the following concerns from 13 individuals were submitted and should be considered: • The money could be used for things that are needed more. • The tennis courts are in good condition as is. Adding lighting to the area will only encourage unwanted activity and noise in a quiet community. • The entire park could use upgrades. The basketball court this summer was the bane of everyone's existence. Adding lights will extend the noise into the nighttime. • Lights should be on a timer. • Why spend thousands of dollars on floodlights. • Pickleball should be discouraged from being played in courts located near houses. There is already too much noise, profanity and loud music during the day that would continue after dark if lights are installed. • There is enough daylight spring summer and fall for people to play sports. • 1 only support this if the lights are turned off in a timely manner, say by 9:30 p.m. • The light pollution would have a major impact on the wildlife that lives in the park and area. There is a great horned owl that lives in the park. Birds, and bats also make Stuart park their home. • We have lived backing on to Stuart Park for over 30 years. We use the park and the tennis courts on a regular basis. Never once did we think we needed extra lighting. • Any organized group play should only be allowed with City permits and within appropriate posted designated hours. • Lighting would just encourage people to hang out, eventually leading to damage. • Need the courts redone but don't want Pickleball. The ball is loud at 7 am on weekends. 4. Concurrence This report has been reviewed by the Director of Financial Services/Treasurer who concurs with the recommendations. Page170 Municipality of Clarington Report PWD-003-21 5. Conclusion Page 5 Although the response rate by the Emily Stowe Community to the Stuart Park rehabilitation survey was very low, staff are of the opinion that the summarized findings closely represent the current needs of the park and it regular users. It is, therefore, respectfully requested that Council provide direction to staff on the following potential upgrades: • That the Guildwood Park tennis courts be resurfaced. • That the Stuart Park tennis courts and basketball court be resurfaced. • That one of the Stuart Park tennis courts be re -configured to provide for up to four pickleball courts. • That lighting be provided on the Stuart Park basketball and tennis/pickleball courts Staff Contact: Stephen Brake, Director of Public Works, 905-263-2291 extension 2903 or sbrake(a�clarington.net Attachment 1 — Stuart Park Letter of Intent Attachment 2 — Map of Emily Stowe Neighbourhood Attachment 3 — Summary of Stuart Park Survey Results Interested Parties: List of Interested Parties available from Department. Page 171 Clarington December 1, 2020 Dear Resident, Attachment 1 to Report PWD-003-21 The Municipality of Clarington is planning to rehabilitate the existing basketball and tennis courts in Stuart Park in spring 2021, pending budget approval. You are receiving this letter to inform you of the project since Stuart Park is designated as your Neighbourhood Park within the Emily Stowe Community in Courtice. The rehabilitation of hard surface courts normally includes upgrades such as pavement resurfacing and fencing replacement. However, Council has requested that staff gather community feedback on two additional changes that are being considered. The proposed changes are: The Clarington Outdoor Recreation Needs Assessment (ORNA) completed in 2020, recommends that Pickleball be introduced with the new tennis court overlay. This fast-growing sport uses paddles and combines elements of badminton, table tennis and tennis. The proposed design of the newly reconfigured playing surface would retain one of the existing courts for tennis while the other would be used to create up to four regulation -size Pickleball courts. 2. Clarington is considering installing flood lighting on the new basketball and tennis/pickleball court surfaces. This new infrastructure would allow the extended use of the courts in the evening hours during spring, summer and fall. Due to the COVID 19 pandemic, Clarington will not be hosting a Public Information Centre on this proposed project. We are asking for public input and encourage you to fill out our short survey found at www.clarington.net/stuartparkcourts. Please take the time to provide us with your comments and fill out the survey no later than 4 p.m. on Friday, December 11, 2020.

Report To: General Government Committee Date of Meeting: January 4, 2021 Report Number: LGS-001-21 Submitted By: Rob Maciver, Director of Legislative Services Reviewed By: Andrew C. Allison, CAO By-law Number: File Number: L2030-02-59E Resolution#: Report Subject: City of Oshawa Licensing of Payday Loan Establishments Recommendation: 1. That Report LGS-001-21 be received for information. Page180 Municipality of Clarington Report LGS-001-21 Report Overview Page 2 This report provides a summary of the existing Provincial regulation and licensing requirements for payday lenders, options available to the Municipality to regulate the location of payday loan establishments, and additional commentary relevant to the regulation of payday loans. 1. Background 1.1 The agenda for the September 14, 2020 Joint Committee meeting included correspondence from the City of Oshawa that pertained to the regulation of payday loan establishments. The details of the City of Oshawa proposal to license payday loan establishments is contained in Oshawa Report CNCL-20-76 (the "Oshawa Report"). 1.2 At the Joint Committee meeting of September 14, 2020, a motion was introduced (#JC- 094-20) to endorse the position of the City of Oshawa as contained in their correspondence. 1.3 The motion was then referred to Staff to report back to the General Government Committee (#JC-095-20). 1.4 Several questions were raised by members of the Joint Committee meeting with respect to Provincial regulation of payday loan establishments, zoning by-law considerations, and the prevalence of payday loan establishments within Clarington. This report will attempt to address these questions, as well as provide some additional commentary about the licensing system proposed by the City of Oshawa. 1.5 Oshawa is the first municipality within Durham Region to initiate business licensing of payday loan establishments, although it is known to occur in the cities of Toronto, Hamilton, Kitchener, and Sarnia. 2. Provincial Regulation of Payday Loans 2.1 Payday loans are regulated by the Province of Ontario pursuant to the Payday Loans Act, 2008, S.O. 2008, c. 9 (the "PLA"). 2.2 Pursuant to the PLA, a "payday loan" means an advancement of money in exchange for a post-dated cheque, a pre -authorized debit or a future payment of a similar nature but not for any guarantee, suretyship, overdraft protection or security on property and not through a margin loan, pawnbroking, a line of credit or a credit card. 2.3 The PLA provides for a comprehensive system of licensing, and all payday lenders are required to be licensed by the Province. Page 181 Municipality of Clarington Page 3 Report LGS-001-21 2.4 The PLA also includes several provisions to protect borrowers and prohibits lenders from a variety of aggressive business practices. 2.5 Pursuant to the PLA, the prescribed limit on the cost of borrowing is $15 for every $100 advanced by the payday lender. 2.6 The PLA is applicable to in -person loans, but also to remote payday loans (e.g. online) which are growing in popularity. Remote payday loans eliminate the need for a borrower to attend at the physical offices of the payday lender. 2.7 In 2017, the PLA was amended to provide that payday lenders shall not operate an office in an area prohibited by a Municipal by-law enacted pursuant to section 154.1 of the Municipal Act, 2001 (the "Municipal Act"). 2.8 Under most circumstances, section 153 of the Municipal Act prevents a municipality from refusing to grant a licence for a business by reason only of the location of the business. 2.9 However, under the special provisions of section 154.1 of the Municipal Act, a local municipality may, as part of a business licensing by-law, define the area of the municipality in which a payday loan establishment may or may not operate and limit the number of payday loan establishments in any defined area in which they are permitted. The only limitation on this regulatory power is that a municipality shall not completely prohibit the operation of all payday loan establishments in the municipality. 2.10 In reliance on this authority, it is the intention of the City of Oshawa to restrict the number of payday loan establishments to 2 per ward to a maximum of 10 in the City, and to prohibit new payday loan establishments in the Downtown Urban Growth Centre as defined in the Oshawa Official Plan. The City's proposal includes appropriate transition (i.e. "grandfathering") provisions for existing establishments, and since the current number of payday loan establishments in the City already exceeds the maximum of 10 locations, any new locations in the City are effectively prohibited. 3. Setbacks 3.1 The Oshawa Report stipulates that no payday loan establishment should be located within 150 metres of any other such establishment, or any elementary or secondary school. Page182 Municipality of Clarington Page 4 Report LGS-001-21 3.2 Oshawa proposes to implement the setback requirement as a part of their licensing by- law. This approach is consistent with that taken by the City of Toronto. An alternative approach used by some municipalities (e.g. the cities of Ottawa and Barrie) has been to provide for zoning regulations to establish minimum distances from other payday loan establishments, or other uses considered to be vulnerable (e.g. gambling establishments). 3.3 The Clarington zoning by-law 84-63 does not currently include a definition for "payday loan establishment". These businesses are classified in the zoning by-law within the general category of "retail commercial establishment" and are permitted in most commercial zones. These businesses are subject to the same setback regulations that would be applicable to any other retail commercial establishments located in the same specific zone. These setbacks are currently minimal and do not relate to proximity to other payday loan establishments, schools, or other uses. 4. Prevalence 4.1 A preliminary search suggests there are currently a total of three payday loan establishments operating within Clarington. There are two payday loan establishments in the east end of Bowmanville near the Bowmanville Mall, and one location in Courtice near Townline Road. 5. Additional Commentary 5.1 The Oshawa Report acknowledges concerns related to the high cost of payday loans, and the potential for borrowers to become cyclical users of payday loan services. Some of the research has found a positive correlation between payday lending and higher incidences of violence, property crime, and increased need for social assistance. 5.2 However, there is other research to suggest that restrictions on the number of payday loan businesses creates an "oligopoly for small -dollar loans with existing locations having an almost permanent, government -protected and enforced oligopoly on the service, limiting available credit options for certain consumers". Additionally, there is research to suggest that anti -clustering attempts may "discourage price competition among payday lenders" rather than leading to improvements in borrowing conditions. 6.

Page185 Municipality of Clarington Report LGS-002-21 Report Overview Page 2 This Report provides background information on Clarington's Ward Boundary Review, including the final report from the consultants and public engagement. The final report includes recommendations from the Consultants, based on information gathered to date, on different options for ward boundaries within Clarington. This Report also contains information on the next steps of the project. 1. Background Council Direction 1.1 In November, 2016, arising out of Report CLD-036-16, Council approved the following Resolution #GG-574-16: That Report CLD-036-16 be received; That Council authorize a ward boundary review; That the ward boundary review be undertaken by Staff in 2019 such that any recommended ward boundary changes may be considered by Council such that they can be in effect for the 2022 Municipal Elections; That all interested parties be advised of Council's decision. 1.2 In 2019, the Provincial government undertook a Regional Governance Review project which may have resulted in an effect on Clarington and ultimately the ward boundary review. As a result, the Ward Boundary Review was delayed until after the release of the Regional Governance Review, which took place October 25, 2019. The Review did not affect Clarington, so the Ward Boundary Review proceeded. 1.3 Since there was a delay between 2016 and 2020, Staff canvassed other municipalities to gather an understanding of work involved and possible costs. As a result, it was determined that Staff do not have the experience or resources to undertake the review in-house. 1.4 Based on the review, Staff estimated that costs had increased since 2016 (from $50,000 to $65,000), Staff included the item in the 2020 Budget with a recommendation to use $50,000 from the Election Reserve and $15,000 from tax levy. This matter was approved at the March 2, 2020 Council meeting, as part of the budget. Page186 Municipality of Clarington Report LGS-002-21 Page 3 1.5 With the approval of Report COD-014-20 on May 4, 2020, regarding the Request for Proposal (RFP) for the Ward Boundary Review, Watson & Associates Economists Ltd (Watson) were awarded the contract. 1.6 Watson submitted their interim report as part of Report CLD-014-20 to the Joint Committees Meeting of September 14, 2020, which was received for information. 2. Next Steps 2.1 Based on the recommendations contained in Watson's Final Report (Attachment 1), Council may choose to either: • Adopt one of the proposed options and direct Staff to prepare a by-law for the January 18, 2020 Council meeting; or • Direct the Consultants to prepare a different option (NOTE: This work is outside of the scope of the RFP and would require further funds.); or • Direct the Consultants to obtain further public engagement (NOTE: This work is outside of the scope of the RFP and would require further funds.); or • Receive the report for information (resulting in an end to the Ward Boundary Review process). 2.2 Should Council decide to make a change to the Clarington ward boundaries, and the by-law is passed at the January 18, 2021 Council, and if there is no appeal, the end of the appeal period will be complete by the third week of March. If there is a delay in Council's consideration of the final report, or passing a by-law, or there is an appeal, the process is lengthened. 2.3 As noted in Report CLD-014-020, although legislatively, any changes to ward boundaries need to be in place prior to December 31, 2021, realistically any changes need to be in place (including the appeal period) by May 1, 2021 in time for planning of the 2022 municipal elections. This timing is necessary because the Clerk's Procedures for the Municipal Elections must be in place prior to December 31, 2021, in accordance with the Municipal Act. The creation of the Clerk's Procedures will be more of a "from scratch" approach due to the switch to internet/telephone voting and therefore will take time to research and develop. 3.

Clarington WBR Final Report.docx Page 190 1. Introduction and Study Objectives In May 2020, Watson & Associates Economists Ltd. (Watson), in association with Dr. Robert J. Williams and Dr. Zachary Spicer, hereinafter referred to as the Consultant Team, was retained by the Municipality of Clarington to conduct a comprehensive ward boundary review (W.B.R.). The primary purpose of the W.B.R. is to prepare Clarington Council to make decisions about whether to maintain the existing ward structure or to adopt an alternative arrangement. The project has a number of key objectives in accordance with the project terms of reference, as follows: • Develop a clear understanding of the present ward system, including its origins and operations as a system of representation; • Evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of the present ward system on the basis of identified guiding principles; • Conduct an appropriate consultation process to ensure community support for the review and its outcome; • Identify plausible modifications to the present ward structure; and • Deliver a report that will set out recommended alternative ward boundaries to ensure effective and equitable electoral arrangements for Clarington, based on the principles identified. This phase of the study provides Council with a final report and alternative ward boundary structures for their consideration, as presented herein. 2. Context The basic requirement for any electoral system in a representative democracy is to establish measures to determine the people who will constitute the governmental body that makes decisions on behalf of electors. Representation in Canada is organized around geographic areas, units referred to as constituencies in the federal and provincial parliaments and typically as wards at the municipal level, as is the case in the Municipality of Clarington. Watson & Associates Economists Ltd. PAGE 1 Clarington WBR Final Report.docx Page 191 At present, Council is comprised of seven members, consisting of a Mayor, who is elected at large, and six councillors, two of whom serve as Regional Councillors. The existing ward structure is presented in Figure 2-1. Figure 2-1: Clarington Current Ward Structure A.

The Mayor and the two Regional Councillors sit on both the Regional and Clarington Councils. Watson & Associates Economists Ltd. PAGE 2 Clarington WBR Final Report.docx Page 192 The number and distribution of Councillors representing local municipalities on the Regional Council is determined through a process established in the Municipal Act, 2001, s. 218. A by-law passed in 2016 by Durham Regional Council under these provisions affirmed that the number of Clarington Regional Councillors would remain at two for the 2018 and 2022 municipal elections and cannot be modified unilaterally by Clarington Council. The wards in which Councillors are elected in Clarington have remained unchanged since 1996. Population data from 2016 and 2020 indicate that the wards are unbalanced in population and that the overall population of Clarington will grow by approximately 30,000 by 2030, primarily within the urban settlement areas (Bowmanville, Courtice, and Newcastle). 3. Project Structure and Timeline The W.B.R. commenced in May 2020 and is anticipated to be completed in December 2020. Work completed to -date includes: • Research and data compilation; • Interviews with Councillors, the Mayor and municipal staff; • Population and growth forecasting and data modelling to 2030; • Development of four preliminary ward boundary alternatives; • Preparation of a Discussion Paper, released to the public on July 15, 2020; • Public consultation on existing ward structure and preliminary alternatives; and • Development of final options and recommendations, and preparation of a Final Report (this document constitutes the Final Report). 4. The Discussion Paper and Interim Report A Discussion Paper was released to the Clarington community on July 15, 2020 and is available on the Municipality's website: https://www.clarington.net/en/town- hall/resources/Clarinaton-2020-Ward-Boundarv-Review-Discussion-Paaer.Ddf. Watson & Associates Economists Ltd. PAGE 3 Clarington WBR Final Report.docx Page 193 That Discussion Paper serves as a platform for the Final Report since it includes: • An explanation of the Terms of Reference and Objectives for the W.B.R.; • An outline of the format and timeline for the project; • The context and background for the W.B.R.; • A detailed discussion and explanation of the guiding principles that frame the study; • An analysis of the distribution of the present municipal population and a forecast of population growth over the 2020 to 2030 period; • An analysis and preliminary evaluation of the present wards within the context of the guiding principles. An interim report was released in September 2020 which provided preliminary alternative ward options that were developed by the Consultant Team. That report is available here: https://weblink.clarington.net/WebLink/0/edoc/328658/CLD-014-20.pdf. The Final Report does not explore the topics discussed in either the Discussion Paper or Interim Report in detail except in summary form to provide context and assumes that those interested in the recommendations included herein have reviewed both documents. 5. Population and Growth Trends One of the basic premises of representative democracy in Canada is the belief that the geographic areas used to elect a representative should be reasonably balanced with one another in terms of population. In order to evaluate the existing ward structure and subsequent alternatives in terms of representation by population in the existing year (2020), a detailed population estimate for the Municipality and its respective wards and communities was developed by Watson. Watson & Associates Economists Ltd. PAGE 4 Clarington WBR Final Report.docx Page 194 5.1 Historical and Existing Population Clarington's wards were developed in 1996 when the population of the Municipality was approximately 60,600 people.' The 2016 Census of Canada reports a population of approximately 92,000, growth of over 31,400 (50% increase) over the 20-year period.2 A mid-2020 population estimate was derived through a review of building permit activity from 2016 through the year end of 2019. During this time, the Municipality of Clarington grew by approximately 3,065 units from 32,835 to 35,900 units. This increase in units is estimated to represent a growth of 6,925 persons, bringing the population from 92,000 to 98,940 excluding the Net Census Undercount.3 Including a Net Census Undercount of approximately 4%, the Municipality of Clarington's 2020 population is estimate at 102,900 persons. A further review took place to understand population at a sub - municipal level, by settlement areas (Bowmanville, Courtice and Newcastle) as well as at a ward -by -ward basis. As shown in Table 5-1 below, 45% of the population currently resides within Bowmanville, 28% within Courtice, 11 % within Newcastle and 16% within Orono and rural communities. Approximately 84% of the Municipality's 's population resides within urban communities. ' Statistics Canada, 1996 Census of Population. 2 Excludes net Census undercount. 3 The Net Census Undercount is an adjustment to the population to account for the net number of persons who are missed (i.e. over -coverage less under -coverage) during enumeration and is estimated at approximately 4% by the Region of Durham.

As shown below in Table 5-2, Ward 2 currently has the highest population of 33,700 (33%) followed by Ward 1 with a total population of 32,030 persons (31 %). These two wards currently make up approximately two thirds of the total population, with the remaining population being split between Ward 3 (19%) and Ward 4 (17%). The population projections and allocations developed for this study and reported below have been produced by Watson using the 2016 Census with the addition of building permits through 2016 to year-end of 2019 to estimate a 2020 population base for the purposes of this W.B.R. These numbers differ slightly from 2020 estimates provided by the Municipality and as reported in the initial Ward Boundary Review Discussion Paper. Watson & Associates Economists Ltd.

The Consultant Team considered active development applications and secondary plans to develop a forecast that conforms to the Durham Region Official Plan targets of 140,300 persons (including the net Census undercount) by 2031. During this process, intensification opportunities were also reviewed as it is mandated by the Province and associated policies, that the Municipality achieve an intensification target of 32% over the 2015 to 2031 period. The Municipality of Clarington's population is anticipated to grow to approximately 136,500 (including net Census undercount) by 2030, a growth of 33,600. Watson developed this population target as part of the W.B.R. analysis. Of the anticipated population growth, 87% is anticipated to occur within Municipality's urban settlement areas. From 2020 to 2030, it is anticipated that Bowmanville will receive approximately 47% of the Municipal -wide population growth while Courtice and Newcastle are anticipated to accommodate 26% and 14%, respectively as displayed in Table 5-3.

Public Engagement The W.B.R. employed a comprehensive public engagement strategy, in which the Consultant Team solicited feedback from staff, Council, and citizens of the Municipality of Clarington through a variety of methods: • Online engagement through surveys, social media outreach, and a public -facing website; • Public consultation sessions; and • Interviews with members of Council, the Mayor, key members of staff, and direct outreach to citizen -run and municipal organizations. Information on the W.B.R. process was communicated through the website, as well as through social media posts on Facebook and Twitter, and additional notices were provided through local news media and newsletters. A full list of the engagements can be found in Appendix A with additional materials in Appendices B to D. Watson & Associates Economists Ltd. PAGE 8 Clarington WBR Final Report.docx Page 198 6.1 Online Engagement 6.1.1 Website The website was established using the "Bang the Table" public engagement software, which helped to raise awareness about the W.B.R., to disseminate information about the process, and to give Clarington residents an opportunity to provide feedback (available at https://engageclarington.ca/ward-boundary-review). Through this platform; residents could access the online surveys, view recordings of the public engagement sessions, view proposed ward boundary options, review background material, including the Discussion Paper and Interim Report, and provide feedback directly to staff and the Consultant Team. A purpose-built Whiteboard Animation Video was also posted, which distilled some key information about the W.B.R. into an accessible format (available at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cXwolm8z59Q&feature=voutu.be). Engagement with Clarington's W.B.R. website was moderate. As of November 29, 2020, it had received 2,023 visitors, with a peak of 125 in a single day. Of these visitors, 1,586 simply visited the page but demonstrated little further engagement, and so were categorized by the "Bang the Table" software as "Aware." Two hundred and forty-nine people visited the Key Dates page, the FAQ page, or visited multiple project pages, and so were categorized as "Informed." Meanwhile, 188 visitors were categorized as "Engaged Participants," having completed online Quick Polls. For example, in Phase 2 a Quick Poll asked whether participants felt Clarington's wards should be changed — there were 46 respondents, with 67% favouring a change and 33% no change. Note, however, that these metrics refer to engagement through the Municipality's W.B.R. website, and do not convey the full extent of public engagement with the W.B.R. process as whole — for example, others may have completed the longer -form surveys (191 respondents in round 1 and 108 respondents in round 2; see section 6.1.2), or participated in the Public Consultation Sessions. Detailed website engagement metrics are available in Appendix B. 6.1.2 Surveys The surveys provided the Consultant Team with an opportunity to gauge public preferences using both qualitative and quantitative analytical techniques. Surveying was done at two different stages of the public consultation process — an initial round to evaluate public priorities and perspectives on the existing ward structure, and a later Watson & Associates Economists Ltd. PAGE 9 Clarington WBR Final Report.docx Page 199 survey which asked respondents to assess and rank a set of preliminary ward boundary options. The Phase 1 survey was open from June 23 to July 31, 2020 and resulted in 191 responses. Respondents were asked to discuss the strengths and weaknesses of the existing wards, and to rank the guiding principles in terms of priority. In general, residents of Clarington indicated that representation by population and effective representation were more important than the other guiding principles, and many respondents communicated a strong sense of identity with their local communities within the Municipality of Clarington. A detailed description of the results from the initial survey round are available in the Interim Report. One hundred and eight (108) people participated in the Phase 2 survey. Of these respondents, 50% indicated that they felt the current number of councillors in Clarington is appropriate, while 42% said there are too few, and 8% said there are currently too many. Respondents then ranked the preliminary ward boundary options, and each option was given a score aggregating these rankings. The 5-ward option — Option C — received the highest score, with 30% of respondents ranking it first, and only 14% ranking it last. Option B (4 wards) was close behind as it was also ranked first by 30% of respondents, but a greater number ranked it as a less preferred option. Option A — the other 4-ward option — as ranked first by only 19% of respondents, but 38% ranked it second, suggesting that, while it isn't ideal for many respondents, it is at least acceptable to many. The 6-ward option was the least popular, ranked first 21 % of the time, but was ranked last by 42%. It may be expected that when ranking preferred options respondents would simply pursue personal interests, and so those residing in more rural wards might opt for greater rural representation, while urban residents opt for more urban representation. It is interesting to note, however, that while residents of each ward did express some variation in their preferences, the overall picture was quite consistent. Preliminary Option D had the lowest score in all four wards, and Option C had the highest ranking in three wards. Those respondents residing in Ward 2 expressed a stronger preference for the four -ward options, ranking Option B highest, followed by Option A. This discrepancy may be attributable to the strong sense of community identity felt by the inhabitants of Bowmanville, many of whom desire that their community be represented as a single voice. For instance, one participant acknowledged the population disparity in Option B, but still ranked it highest, stating that "Bowmanville should be one ward." Several other residents of Ward 2 also cited concerns about the tax burden associated Watson & Associates Economists Ltd. PAGE 10 Clarington WBR Final Report.docx Page 200 with increasing the number of wards and prioritized Options A and B as a result. A full breakdown of Preliminary Option Preferences by ward is available in Appendix D (Table D-4). Throughout both rounds of surveying, the open -form comments provided key insights into public preferences and the issues in play. The Consultant Team evaluated these comments for general themes and identified insightful responses that highlighted crucial issues. One recurring sentiment was a sense of identification with the local communities within Clarington, rather than identifying with Clarington Municipality as its own entity. As a result, many respondents prioritized options that keep like - communities together. However, representation by population was also recognized as an important factor and so there was some appetite for increasing the number of wards as a way to help keep communities together while allowing something closer to population parity. In order to better visualize recurrent themes in the open -form comments sections, the written responses from both survey rounds were used to populate a word bank, which was statistically analyzed and used to create the word cloud depicted in Figure 6-1, below.

PAGE 11 Clarington WBR Final Report.docx Page 201 6.1.3 Social Media Engagement While some degree of community outreach was achieved through more traditional avenues such as radio and print advertisements (details on specific initiatives available in Appendix A), the greatest success was through social media engagement. This was made evident by a question in the Phase 2 survey that asked respondents to indicate how they became aware of the W.B.R. — "Social Media" accounted for more than half (57%) of responses. Similarly, traffic sources analysis from the Engage Clarington website indicated that of the visitors directed there from external sources, 40% were from Facebook, more than any other avenue (the Municipality of Clarington website came in second at 30%). Social media engagement occurred through Twitter and Facebook, on which notices were posted informing the public of the PICs, the survey, and the website. In total, 52 notices were sent on each platform. On Twitter, the notices generated 31,508 Impressions, 25 Retweets, 30 Likes, and posted links were followed 246 times. Visibility was somewhat greater on Facebook, on which the notices generated 58,890 Impressions, 93 Reactions, 15 comments, 57 Shares, and posted links were followed 435 times (further details are available in Appendix B). In addition, a 9-question brain teaser survey entitled "How Well Do You Know Clarington?" was circulated online, which quizzed respondents on their knowledge of their municipality. It was intended to be a fun method for informing the public, which would hopefully generate excitement about the W.B.R. 6.2 Public Consultation Sessions The Consultant Team also held a series of public consultation sessions with Clarington residents. Following public health guidelines put in place due to the COVID-19 outbreak, four public open houses were conducted virtually on July 8, 2020 and July 15, 2020 after the release of the Discussion Paper, with two, hour-long, virtual consultation sessions each day. Residents had the option of participating either online through a video conferencing platform, or by calling in via telephone. Feedback from these sessions was used to inform the recommendations provided in the Interim Report. After the release of the Interim Report, four more virtual open houses were held on October 1, 2020, October 15, 2020, October 28, 2020 and November 10, 2020. Again, each session was 60 minutes in length. It should be highlighted that, while these Public Watson & Associates Economists Ltd. PAGE 12 Clarington WBR Final Report.docx Page 202 Consultation Sessions had to be held virtually due to COVID-19, there were eight sessions in total, which is more than the number of in -person sessions that would have occurred under normal circumstances. Thus, while gathering restrictions may have posed some barriers to public engagement, such additional measures helped to mitigate any disruption. The Consultant Team's presentation and other information about the review, including the audio recording of the Public Meetings, is available online at.https://engageclarington.ca/ward-boundarV-review. Further, the posterboards presented in the Public Consultation Sessions are also available in Appendix C of this document. 6.3 Interviews and Direct Community Outreach In addition to the public engagement, it was crucial for the Consultant Team to benefit from the perspectives of professionals in government and community organizations throughout the Municipality. A series of interviews was conducted with the Mayor and members of Council, as well as with senior staff in the Municipality. Sessions to discuss and review the Preliminary Options were arranged with the Municipality's Accessibility Committee, Diversity Committee, and in the first round of engagement a presentation session was held with the Clarington Agricultural Advisory Committee. The Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing was also advised of the commencement of the Review. In addition, information and materials were provided to community organizations like the Bowmanville Older Adults Association, the Kiwanis Group, the Bowmanville Community Group, the Enniskillen Community Board, the Hampton Community Association, and the North Courtice Neighbourhood Association (further outreach described in Appendix A). This outreach helped to ensure that members of the community were aware of the project and of the different avenues for engagement. The feedback and comments received through the consultation process are reflected in the analysis and have helped inform the findings and recommendations. While public input from consultation provides valuable insight into the review, it is not relied on exclusively. This is in part because only a subset of the population participated in the W.B.R., which may not be representative of Clarington's population as a whole. The Consultant Team utilized the public input in conjunction with its professional expertise and experience in W.B.R.s, along with knowledge of best practices, to develop the recommended options. Watson & Associates Economists Ltd. PAGE 13 Clarington WBR Final Report.docx Page 203 Detailed information on the public engagement process, including statistics on each engagement tool, is provided in Appendix 1. Additional information about responses to the first round of consultation is also available in the Interim Report. 7. Principles The Municipality of Clarington has established core principles and other directions for an electoral review: • Representation by Population • Population Trends • Community Access and Connections • Geographic and Topographical Features • Community or Diversity of Interests • Effective Representation These principles are discussed at length in section 3.5 of the Discussion Paper, but deserve revisiting briefly in this final report, given that the choice before Council requires a thorough consideration of the importance of each principle and a considered evaluation of which of the principles is most important for determining an appropriate system of representation for the 2022 municipal election in Clarington. The principles contribute to on -going access between elected officials and residents, but they may occasionally conflict with one another. Accordingly, it is expected that the overriding principle of effective representation will be used to arbitrate conflicts between principles. Any deviation from the specific principles must be justified by other principles in a manner that is more supportive of effective representation. The priority attached to certain principles makes some designs more desirable in the eyes of different observers. Ultimately, the ward design adopted by Clarington's Council should be the one that best fulfills as many of the guiding principles as possible. 8. Clarington's Existing Ward Structure A preliminary evaluation of the existing ward structure in Clarington is found in section 5 of the Discussion Paper. That discussion, along with input received through the public consultation process, rigorously applied the guiding principles to the individual wards and the overall design, found in Table 8-1. Watson & Associates Economists Ltd. PAGE 14 Clarington WBR Final Report.docx Page 204 The analysis suggests that the existing ward boundary configuration in Clarington does not fully meet the expectations for five of the six guiding principles. In other words, it would be improbable that a review aiming to meet the principles set out for this W.B.R. would recommend a structure that follows the existing ward boundaries. Table 8-1: Existing Clarington Ward Configuration Evaluation Summary Representation by Population Population Trends Community Access and Connections Geographic and Topographical Features No M Fr- -I Comment Population data suggest that two wards are outside of the acceptable range of variance and a third is approaching the lower end of the defined range of variation. None can be considered to fall within the range of "parity." The current ward structure would not suitably accommodate future population growth. Population disparities throughout the wards would be expected to worsen through the 2022, 2026 and 2030 election cycles. Existing ward system runs narrowly from north to south, capturing both rural and urban communities that have few natural social or economic connections. Existing ward boundaries take Partially successful advantage of prominent geographical features, such as major transportation routes and Watson & Associates Economists Ltd. PAGE 15 Clarington WBR Final Report.docx Page 205 Community or No Diversity of Interests Effective Representation No historical markers. Boundaries are easy to comprehend and follow easily recognizable features. While the existing ward structure provides adequate support for the three major urban communities of interest, they largely fail to account for certain economic or cultural communities that are distributed over several wards. The current population disparities between wards are too great to achieve effective representation. These disparities are likely to grow in the future. 1 The degree to which each guiding principle is satisfied is ranked as "Yes" (fully satisfied), "Largely Successful," "Partially Successful" or "No" (not satisfied). The existing ward boundaries confront two main challenges: providing for population parity between wards and accounting for communities of interest. The objective of population parity (every councillor generally representing an equal number of constituents within his or her respective ward) is the primary goal of an electoral redistribution with some degree of variation acceptable in light of population densities and demographic factors across the Municipality. The indicator of success in a ward design is the extent to which all the individual wards approach an "optimal" size. Optimal size can be understood as a mid -point on a scale where the term "optimal" (0) describes a ward with a population within 5% on either side of the calculated optimal size. The classification "below/above optimal" (O + or O -) is applied to a ward with a Watson & Associates Economists Ltd. PAGE 16 Clarington WBR Final Report.docx Page 206 population between 6% and 25% on either side of the optimal size. A ward that is labelled "outside the range" (OR + or OR -) indicates that its population is greater than 25% above or below the optimal ward size. The adoption of a 25% maximum variation is based on federal redistribution legislation and is widely applied in municipalities like Clarington that include both urban and rural areas. Based on the Municipality's overall 2016 Census population (92,160) and municipal population estimates for 2020 of approximately 102,900, the optimal population size for a local ward in a four -ward system in Clarington would be 25,725.4 Table 8-2: Population by Existing Ward, 2016 and 2020 1 30,763 1.34 1.20 0.77 0.70 Optimal OR O + O - OR- 23,040 32,030 33,700 19,890 17,280 102,900 ' 1.251 1.31 O + 2 27,651 3 17,675 0.77 O - 4 16,071 Total 92,160 0.67 25,725 Optimal Source: Watson & Associates Economists Ltd., 2020 Note: 2020 population estimates have been rounded. Population data suggests two wards are outside the acceptable range of variance and the other two are at or close to the outer edge of the acceptable range of variation. None of the wards can be considered to fall within what is referred to as the "optimal" range, that is, within 5% on either side of optimal. By 2031, the Municipality of Clarington is estimated to reach a population of 140,300.5 Much of this growth is expected in the larger southern population centres of Courtice, Bowmanville and Newcastle. Without adjustment the disparities between the wards will continue. Responses to the survey and participation in the public consultation sessions have largely shown that Clarington residents have a strong affinity towards their individual 4 Population and growth trends for Clarington are included in the Discussion Paper, pages 11 to 13. 5 Source: Municipality of Clarington Official Plan, 2018. Watson & Associates Economists Ltd. PAGE 17 Clarington WBR Final Report.docx Page 207 communities, such as Bowmanville and Courtice. The consultation process also revealed that there are strong rural and agricultural interests and many well -established hamlets that are not specifically represented on Council. It is clear that these communities have interests that are distinct from the larger, more populated communities in the south, but the current ward boundaries group extensive rural areas and northern hamlets with those larger urban and suburban settlements in the south, which has at times diluted their voice. All told, analysis of the current and future population trends, along with feedback received during the public consultation leads to a recommendation that Council should consider alternate ward configurations. 9. Recommended Options As mentioned in the Discussion Paper and Interim Report, Clarington provides a unique challenge when finding a suitable ward boundary system. Clarington is a community created through amalgamation with three large population centres (Courtice, Bowmanville, and Newcastle) that are rapidly growing. These communities are all located in the south, along Lake Ontario, and have very different economic and social patterns than the more sparsely populated hamlets in the north. One of these large southern population centres, Bowmanville, is also much larger than the other two, which provides an additional challenge in keeping that community within a single ward. As such, balancing communities of interest with population parity has been a steep challenge for the Consultant Team. Ultimately, the choice of ward system is a decision for Council. Taking the guiding principles of the review into consideration, along with feedback from residents and the expertise and experience of the Consultant Team, three options have been prepared for Council to consider below. Each places emphasis on the different values incorporated throughout the review process and takes into account their relative importance as identified through the consultation process. Council must implicitly decide which of the guiding principles it values the most. Doing so will make the decision about which system to adopt much easier. As discussed above, it is not recommended that Council retain the current ward boundary system. Watson & Associates Economists Ltd. PAGE 18 Clarington WBR Final Report.docx Page 208 Recommended Option: Option A The first option presents a four -ward system and places an emphasis on population parity. As mentioned above, the unique settlement patterns in Clarington make it difficult to place each defined community of interest into a single ward. Option A preserves some communities of interest, but also allows for a much more balanced distribution of the population between the wards than the current system. Ward 1 stretches from Lake Ontario in the south towards the northern municipal boundary using Highway 418 as a boundary in the south, before heading east along Taunton Road towards Highway 57 and then running northward. Wards 2 and 3 contain Bowmanville, using Highway 418 in the west, the Darlington -Clarke Townline in the east, Lake Ontario in the south and Taunton Road in the north as boundary lines. Bowmanville is bisected along Bloor/Concession Street, which interviews and public consultation have identified as a much more natural divider through Bowmanville than Liberty Street, which is currently used to separate Wards 2 and 3. Ward 4 runs from the Darlington -Clarke Townline in the west towards the municipal boundary in the east and then to the municipal boundary in the north. Highway 57 separates Wards 1 and 4 in the north. While the population in Wards 1 and 2 are higher than in 3 and 4, this disparity begins to slightly diminish over time, providing an adequate population distribution between the wards now and through the two following elections. By selecting Option A, Council is affirming its preference for achieving better population parity between the wards than is possible in the present configuration. Watson & Associates Economists Ltd.

Note- Numbers have been rounded. Watson & Associates Economists Ltd. PAGE 20 Clarington WBR Final Report.docx Page 210 Recommended Option: Option B The second option presents a four -ward system and places an emphasis on the preservation of communities of interest. This option proposes a distinct northern ward, placing many of the rural and agricultural communities in Clarington into a single ward. As mentioned earlier, the Consultant Team heard that a distinct voice for rural and agricultural interests was needed on Council. Clarington's current ward boundaries capture both densely populated, urban communities in the south and sparsely populated rural communities in the north. Option B changes this dynamic, ensuring that the north would have a distinct voice in Council. Option B also creates distinct wards for Courtice, Newcastle and Orono. The majority of Bowmanville is contained in Ward 2, which is why the population is much higher for this ward as compared to the others. Overall, this option largely preserves the distinct communities of interests within Clarington while still maintaining a four -ward system. Wards 1 and 2 use Pebblestone Road in the north and Lake Ontario in the south as boundaries. Holt Road separates Wards 1 and 2. Lambs Road provides an eastern boundary for Ward 2. Ward 3 uses Taunton Road as a northern boundary, running towards the eastern municipal border. Ward 4 contains the entire northern portion of Clarington. While this option does provide for a much -needed voice on council for the northern communities and agricultural interest in Clarington, it fails to achieve population parity. Ward 4 contains only a very small percentage of Clarington's population, but covers nearly half its geography. By selecting Option B, Council is affirming its preference for basing political representation on Clarington's distinct communities of interest. Watson & Associates Economists Ltd.

Note- Numbers have been rounded. Watson & Associates Economists Ltd. PAGE 22 Clarington WBR Final Report.docx Page 212 Recommended Option: Option C As mentioned above, finding the right system for Clarington would be challenging given the municipality's unique geography and settlement patterns. While adding wards is not explicitly in the mandate of this W.B.R., striking a balance between communities of interest and population parity requires exploring the option of a fifth councillor. We present this option below. To be clear, the Consultant Team has heard through interviews and the public consultation process that adding additional voices to the Council table may be prudent to contribute to the democratic needs of the community in the future. Among the comments were statements like, "Rural needs are different from the urban needs," "Need to create a new ward for North Clarington" and "would love to see the northern residents have a ward to themselves." Given that councillors in Clarington serve on a part-time basis, the cost to add councillors would be modest and would likely increase the quality of representation across the municipality. A ward system with an additional ward, or two, would be reasonable to consider as an alternative to the current model. One complication of this Option would be identifying equitable combinations of the five wards to elect two Regional Councillors. An alternative would be to elect the two Clarington Regional Councillors at -large (like the mayor) but this has never been done and the legislative authority is unclear. Wards 1, 2 and 3 use Nash/Concession Road as a northern boundary. Lake Ontario serves as a southern boundary for each ward. Highway 418 divides Wards 1 and 2, while Liberty Street bisects Bowmanville and separates Wards 2 and 3. Highway 115 separates Wards 3 and 4, while Ward 4 extends to the eastern municipal boundary and is separated from Ward 5 by the Darlington -Clarke Townline. Ward 5 encapsulates the territory north of Nash/Concession Road to the northern municipal boundary. Relative population parity is achieved in this model by including some of the growth emanating from Courtice and Bowmanville in Ward 5. Ward 4 contains Newcastle and Orono, which again helps to balance the population in comparison to the other wards. By selecting Option C, Council is affirming its preference for achieving improved population parity while still providing voices for Clarington's communities of interest.

Next Steps & Council Decisions This report will be presented to Council at a meeting scheduled for January 4, 2021. During their deliberation, Council has a series of choices to make. Councillors must decide if they value the preservation of communities of interests or population parity between the wards as the leading criterion on which to base their decision. If they do not wish to decide between either, they have a third option, which strikes a balance between both but adds an additional councillor. Council must decide if they believe this trade-off is best for the community. One final course of action for Council is to take no action at all. Council may view the current ward system as adequate and endorse it by not selecting an alternative option. In doing so, they must clearly affirm the reasons why they believe the current ward system still serves the residents of Clarington well. Within this report, the Consultant Team has highlighted deficiencies in the current ward boundary system in relation to the guiding principles. These deficiencies have led the Consultant Team to conclude that the current ward boundary system no longer serves the residents of Clarington well and ought to be changed. The public engagement efforts throughout this review have been consistent with this view: in the online quick poll on the review website, 67% of respondents favoured a change, of some kind, to the ward system. Only 33% wanted to see no changes made. Council is reminded that taking no action on this matter constitutes a deliberate decision and there must be a defensible rationale for that decision both publicly and at LPAT, if required. Depending on Council's decision related to the Final Options contained in this report, ratification of a by-law to implement the preferred option is expected to occur shortly after the January 4, 2021 meeting.

Page 246 Municipality of Clarington Report LGS-003-21 Report Overview Page 2 This report is intended to provide background information, regarding the vacancies on the Energy from Waste — Waste Management Advisory Committee to assist in the appointment process. 1. Background 1.1 There are currently vacancies on the Energy from Waste — Waste Management Advisory Committee. 1.2 In accordance with the "Appointment to Boards & Committees Policy" when there are no applicants on file when a vacancy occurs, the Clerk's Division placed an advertisement for the vacancies in the local newspapers and on the Municipality's website, www.clarington.net/Committees. 1.3 In an effort to extend the reach of our advertisements for vacancies, the Clerk's Division had created a profile on the www.claringtonvolunteers.ca website. 1.4 As per the "Appointment to Boards & Committees Policy", the applications have been included in a confidential matrix, which has been attached at the front of each of the applications for the respective Boards and Committees. 2. Energy from Waste — Waste Management Advisory Committee (EFW-WMAC) Background 2.1 The EFW-WMAC was established in 2011. It acts in an advisory role to the Durham Works Committee on issues or concerns which arise with waste diversion, waste management, environmental performance and monitoring of the EFW Facility, including the construction and operational phases. 2.2 The EFW-WMAC is comprised of nine residents from the Region of Durham: five residents appointed by Durham Regional Council and four residents appointed by Clarington Council.

Report To: General Government Committee Date of Meeting: January 4, 2021 Report Number: LGS-004-21 Submitted By: Rob Maciver, Director of Legislative Services Reviewed By: Andrew C. Allison, CAO By-law Number: File Number: Resolution#: Report Subject: Fireworks Permitting Recommendation: 1. That Report LGS-004-21 be received for information. Page 249 Municipality of Clarington Report LGS-004-21 Page 2 Report Overview This report provides background on the permitting process for Cultural, Religious or Special Occasions outside of the exempted days of Canada and Victoria Day. 1. Background 1.1 On the November 30, 2020 General Government Committee meeting, Committee passed the following Resolution #GG-440-20 to the December 14, 2020 Council meeting: That Communication Item 11.4, regarding Request to Amend By-law 2015-047 to include Diwali as an Exemption to Require a Permit, be referred to staff for their input on the process to be followed 1.2 Current exemptions for discharging of fireworks under Bylaw 2015-047 are for the three days preceding Canada Day and Victoria Day. A permit to discharge is required for any days outside of current exemptions. 1.3 Currently within Durham Region, only Oshawa has an exemption for Diwali. Toronto also includes an exemption in their By-law. Like Clarington, other Municipalities allow for discharging of fireworks outside of the exempted days through a permitting process. 1.4 Diwali is a festival that is aligned with the Hindu Lunisolar Calendar; generally between mid October and mid November. The celebration occurs over five days, with the third day being the darkest day of the month and often associated with the lighting of fireworks (Celebration of Light). 2. Discussion 2.1 Current permitting for the discharge of fireworks requires receipt of an application 15 days before the date of discharge. Dependant on location and possible impacts to surrounding neighbors, a request to notify adjacent properties may be required prior to approval. 2.2 The current permitting process is for use in any celebration, tradition or event that is currently not exempted. Adding additional days as exemptions may result in complaints from residents who do not observe these celebrations. 2.3 To date, Municipal Law Enforcement has not received applications for discharging fireworks for Diwali. There have been a few inquiries in regard to discharging for Diwali and individuals were advised of the permitting process at that time. Page 250 Municipality of Clarington Report LGS-004-21 3. Concurrence Page 3 This report has been reviewed by the Director of Emergency and Fire Services who concurs with the recommendation. 4. Conclusion It is respectfully recommended that this report is received for information and the existing permit process used to accommodate residents that want to discharge fireworks on Diwali.

Report To: General Government Committee Date of Meeting: January 4, 2021 Report Number: FSD-001-21 Submitted By: Trevor Pinn, Director of Financial Services Reviewed By: Andrew C. Allison, CAO Resolution#: File Number: By-law Number: Report Subject: Delegation of Authority to enter into Extension Agreements to the Treasurer Recommendations: 1. That Report FSD-001-21 be received; 2. That the Council of the Corporation of the Municipality of Clarington delegate authority to the Treasurer to enter into extension agreements pursuant to Section 378 of the Municipal Act, 2001, and; 3. That the By-law attached to Report FSD-001-21, as attachment 1, be approved. Page 252 Municipality of Clarington Report FSD-001-21 Report Overview Page 2 Staff are seeking approval from Council to delegate authority to enter into an extension agreement for properties registered for tax sale. Once a tax arrears certificate has been registered, only full payment of the cancellation price can be accepted. Payment must be received within one year of the date of registration. A property owner may request an extension agreement to extend this period. By delegating the authority to the Treasurer, this will allow staff to work directly with property owners in hopes to avoid the tax sale process 1. Background 1.1 Section 378 of the Municipal Act, 2001, provides that after the registration of a tax arrears certificate and before the expiry of one year following the date of registration, a Municipality may authorize an extension agreement. 1.2 Without an extension agreement, property owners have one year from the date of registration to pay the total cancellation price, which includes all taxes owing, penalties/interest and legal fees. Partial payments cannot be accepted. An extension agreement allows a qualified applicant to enter into an extension agreement to extend the time before a tax sale may take place. 1.3 Changes made under Bill 68 (Modernizing Ontario's Municipal Legislation Act, 2017) provided the ability for Council to delegate their authority to enter into an extension agreement. With the passing of Bill 68, legislation was amended to no longer require the passing of a by-law to authorize an extension agreement. 2. Comments 2.1 By delegating authority to the Treasurer to enter into an extension agreement, staff will be able to work with property owners and expedite payment on tax arrears with the goal of stopping the tax sale process. This allows property owners some privacy as it relates to these matters, as currently an extension agreement would have to be approved by council on an individual basis. 2.2 By entering into an extension agreement there is also the flexibility to receive payments other than in one lump sum payment; this provides staff an additional tool to work with residents who are having difficulty in making their payments. 2.3 If authority is not delegated, this can limit the time an extension agreement can be entered. If the final days of the one-year expiry date doesn't coincide with a council meeting, the deadline would be missed. The Municipal Act does not allow for a late agreement and the tax sale process would continue. Page 253 Municipality of Clarington Page 3 Report FSD-001-21 3. Concurrence Not Applicable. 4. Conclusion It is respectfully recommended that council delegate authority to the Treasurer to enter into extension agreements to assist in the Municipality's ability to collect outstanding taxes and avoid a tax sale.

That the Council of the Corporation of the Municipality of Clarington delegate authority to the Assessment Review Board to determine eligibility for property tax reductions or refunds under the Municipal Act, 2001, Section 357 (1) (d.1) — Sickness or Extreme Poverty; and 3. That the By-law attached to Report FSD-002-21, as attachment 1, be approved. Page 256 Municipality of Clarington Report FSD-002-21 Report Overview Page 2 Staff are seeking approval from Council to delegate authority to the Assessment Review Board to determine eligibility for applications made under Section 357 (1)(d.1) of the Municipal Act, 2001. This section provides the ability for a property owner to apply for a cancellation, reduction or refund of property taxes due to sickness or extreme poverty. 1. Background 1.1 Subsection 357(1) of the Municipal Act, 2001 allows property owners to apply for the cancellation, reduction or refund of property taxes for various reasons that occur during the year. The following list identifies reasons why the property owner may apply for a tax adjustment 1. Change in tax class — 357(1)(a); 2. Property became exempt from taxes — 357(1)(c); 3. Property razed by fire, demolition or otherwise — 357(1)(d)(i); 4. Property is damaged and substantially unusable — 357(1)(d)(ii); 5. Sickness or extreme poverty — 357(1)(d.1); 6. Mobile Unit removed — 357(1)(e); 7. Gross or manifest clerical/factual error — 357(1)(f); 8. Repairs/Renovation prevent normal use (minimum 3 months) — 357(1)(g). 1.2 An application can be made by the owner of the land or by another person who has an interest in the land, a tenant, occupant or other person in procession of the land, or a spouse of the owner or other person described. 1.3 Subsection 357(11) allows Council to pass a by-law authorizing the Assessment Review Board exercise the powers and functions of council with respect to applications made under subsections (1) and (5). 1.4 Taxation Services receives applications for property tax reductions from property owners throughout the year. Taxation Services, with the assistance of the Municipal Property Assessment Corporation (MPAC), evaluates the applications for completeness and accuracy, holds a meeting pursuant to subsection 357(5) allowing applicants to make representation, and then determines whether a tax adjustment is required. Page 257 Municipality of Clarington Report FSD-002-21 2. Comments Page 3 2.1 Taxation staff have the ability, with the assistance of MPAC, to evaluate and determine whether a property qualifies for a tax adjustment in seven of the eight reasons identified through subsection 357(1) of the Municipal Act, 2001 as identified above. Sickness or extreme poverty is the only exception. Similar to most municipalities, taxation staff do not have the necessary information or expertise to evaluate an application claiming an inability to pay taxes due to sickness or extreme poverty. 2.2 Applications claiming sickness or extreme poverty are rare. An application under this section of the Act requires the property owner to prove sickness and extreme poverty. A full review of their financial information including income tax returns and expenses must occur, and they may be asked to attend a hearing to discuss their situation. 2.3 The Assessment Review Board has an established process to handle these types of applications and can more effectively determine their appropriateness. By delegating authority to the Assessment Review Board, this will ensure that a streamlined, impartial and accessible program is available for property owners seeking relief. 3. Concurrence Not Applicable. 4. Conclusion 4.1 It is respectfully recommended that Council delegate authority to the Assessment Review Board to manage the application process for tax relief due to sickness or extreme poverty.

Report To: Council Date of Meeting: December 14, 2020 Submitted By: Andrew C. Allison, CAO File Number: Report Subject: Department Liaisons Recommendations: 1. That Report CAO-023-20 be received; 2. That Council either, Report Number: CAO-023-20 Resolution#: By-law Number: a. eliminate the role of Department Liaisons and direct staff to delete all references to Department Liaisons in Procedural By-law 2015-029; or b. direct staff to prepare a by-law to amend the Procedural By-law 2015-029 in the manner described in section 2.4 of this Report in order to clarify the responsibilities of Department Liaisons. 3. That Council provide direction on whether they wish to have Department Heads continue to attend full meetings or just the portion of the meeting pertaining to their department. Page 264 Municipality of Clarington Report CAO-023-20 Report Overview The following information is provided to assist Council in its deliberation of the role of Department Liaisons. 1. Background Page 2 1.1 Corporate records indicate that the concept of Department Liaisons was first introduced in Clarington in 1983 (although they were called Department Chairs until 2011 when the Procedural By-law was changed). There is no report, resolution or direction to indicate what the expectations of a Department Liaison could, or should, be other than the following reference in the current Procedural By-law: Section 5.1.1 (b) — Each Member shall be appointed as a Department Liaison as soon as is practical after the first Meeting of Council or a vacancy occurs for which he has been appointed Department Liaison. The Department Liaison shall take the chair during that portion of the GG Committee or PD Committee meeting dealing with the matters pertaining to the Department for which he has been appointed Department Liaison. 1.2 In 2018, Council appointed Department Liaisons until December 31, 2019. In 2019, Council appointed Department Liaisons until December 31, 2020 — hence the reason that the matter is before Council. 1.3 As a result of the organizational changes that took effect in July 2020, staff suggested, in a memo that went to General Government Committee on September 14, 2020, that it would be appropriate to pass a resolution appointing Department Liaisons based on the new structure. Staff also suggested that because the first round of organizational changes eliminated one department, Council should have a Councillor appointed to the Financial Services Department rather than have that department remain as part of the Mayor's liaison portfolio, as has been tradition. On September 21, 2020, Council appointed liaisons and directed that the matter be reviewed at the November 30, 2020 General Government Committee (GGC) meeting. 1.4 At the November 30, 2020 GGC meeting, Resolution #GG-437-20 was moved to appoint liaisons for a one-year term ending December 31, 2021. That motion was referred to December 14, 2020 Council meeting. At Committee, there were concerns expressed regarding the need for an Emergency and Fire Services Department Liaison. Page 265 Municipality of Clarington Page 3 Report CAO-023-20 1.5 As a result of more recent organizational changes, the Clerk's Department is now a division within the Legislative Service Department and the Corporate Services Department will cease to exist effective January 1, 2021. Accordingly, effective January 1, 2021, there will be a total of seven departments: Community Services, Emergency and Fire Services, Financial Services, Legislative Services, Office of the CAO, Planning and Development Services, and Public Works. Resolution #GG-437-20 shows the Mayor as having been appointed liaison to "Administration", but consistent with all of the organizational changes that have been made, the proper reference for purposes of appointing Department Liaisons is "Office of the CAO". 2. Discussion 2.1 The practice of lower tier municipalities having Department Liaisons (or Chairs) was discussed in a recent report (November 2016) from Scugog. It included a summary of the practices across Durham Region. The following extract is from Scugog's report: The practice of having Departmental Chairs adds questionable value in Scugog. While certain departments have benefitted from having a heightened level of attention and advocacy from their assigned member of Council, the majority of department heads feel that this is an outdated and counterproductive governance feature. Other municipalities have abandoned this practice for a variety of reasons; the presence of Departmental Chairs can serve to blur the line between the political and administrative realms, leading some to question where the line of the department head ends, and the role of the Department Chair begins. In addition, the practice of rotating Chairs within GPA meetings adds unnecessary administration and works against meeting efficiency. It is therefore recommended that this practice be eliminated in Scugog, The GPA model is proposed to continue with the Mayor (or in his absence, the Deputy Mayor) chairing GPA meetings in their entirety. 2.2 In December 2018, Whitby eliminated all but one of its Department Chairs. The following extract is from Whitby's report to Council: Section 2.9 of the Procedure By-law stipulates that the Mayor shall appoint six Members of Council, excluding the Deputy Mayor, to serve as a Department Chair for a 16 month term, with the Mayor being the chair for the Office of the CAO and Economic Development. With the exception of the Chair of Finance/Budget, who is responsible for overseeing the presentation of the annual budget with the Treasurer, Department Chairs typically have not performed an active role. As Department Chairs do not play an active role, do not have any authority beyond that of Council, and given the few municipalities that continue to appoint Department Chairs, it is recommended that this practice be abandoned in Whitby, with the exception of the Chair of Finance/Budget. Page 266 Municipality of Clarington Page 4 Report CAO-023-20 2.3 In Durham Region, only Clarington and Uxbridge continue to appoint Department Chairs. 2.4 Whether to continue with the practice of having Department Liaisons (or Chairs) is a decision of Council. From staff's perspective, there can be a benefit in continuing with the practice. Department Liaisons can play a key role in reviewing and understanding a department's functions, business planning and budget. However, there should be a clearer articulation of what the role entails in our corporate documents. To this end, staff are recommending that, if Council's desire is to continue with Department Liaisons, the following clause should be added to Section 5.1.1 of Procedural By-law 2015-029 to clarify the role of a Department Liaison: (c) A Department Liaison's primary responsibility is to maintain good communication and relationships between Council and the Department to which the Liaison has been appointed in the following ways: The Department Liaison and Director shall maintain regular communication in areas of concern within the Department; The Department Liaison shall obtain information from the Director to ensure an understanding of all reports coming from the Department for consideration by Council; and The Department Liaison shall provide guidance or support to the Department if requested by the Director. 2.5 If the role of Department Liaisons is to be preserved, staff's recommendation is that each of the current seven Departments have a liaison. At both the GGC meetings on September 14, 2020 and on November 30, 2020, the need for a liaison for the Emergency and Fire Services Department was raised. There was a suggestion that, instead of having a liaison to this Department, Council should consider having a councillor appointed to oversee an economic development portfolio or perhaps a portfolio of environmental issues. In the opinion of staff, the role of a liaison to the Emergency and Fire Services Department should continue, if for no other reason than this Department, by comparison, has the second largest operating budget only behind Public Works. 2.6 A separate but related issue of whether there is a need for the Director of Emergency and Fire Services to be present (physically or virtually) at GGC and Council meetings was raised during the GGC meetings. In the opinion of staff, the issue of attendance at meetings extends to all departments; the issue is whether it is necessary for Department Heads (or their designates) to be in attendance for the entirety of our meetings. The Acting Director of Planning and Development (or her designate) does not attend GGC meetings unless there is an issue on the agenda that directly impacts the Page 267 Municipality of Clarington Report CAO-023-20 Page 5 Department, and even then, it is just for the portion of the meeting devoted to that issue. Similarly, Department Heads or their designates (other than Public Works) do not attend Planning & Development Committee meetings unless there is something on the agenda that directly impacts their departments. In the opinion of staff, this approach should be extended to all departments for all meetings — Department Heads (or their designates) should only be expected to be present (physically or virtually) during those portions of the meetings where their attendance would be required to provide input or answer questions from Committee/Council, but otherwise to be on call. This will result in a far more efficient utilization of senior staff time. Because this represents a fundamental change to how our Municipality has run its meetings, direction from Council is sought. 3. Concurrence Not Applicable. 4. Conclusion It is respectfully recommended that Council provide direction to staff on the role of Department Liaisons and the need for Department Heads to physically or virtually attend committee and Council meetings.
