Subject: North Bowmanville Dog Park and LED Lighting
File:
At the Regular General Government Committee meeting held on Monday, October
19, 2020, Council passed resolution #GG-373-20. 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.

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.

The Municipality presently does not own land in the area of Camp 30 to establish a
new off -leash dog park (please see Figure 2). Although the planning process for
the Camp 30 site remains on -going there are currently no agreement on land uses.
While it is expected that areas within the development site will eventually be
transferred to the Municipality, the site is not expected to be available for the
construction of a new dog park in 2021.

As shown in Figure 4, the only Clarington owned properties within a 1.5 km radius
of the Concession Road 3 at Liberty Street intersection are existing Municipal
Parks and Environmentally Protected lands.
The Parks in this area have already been programmed with amenities for
community use while the environmentally protected sites are considered
unsuitable due to existing topography and or the presence of wet lands.
Future development plans in other areas of North Bowmanville beyond the 1.5

Alternate Park Locations
CLOCA Lands on Longworth Avenue
MEMO
The property on the north side of Longworth Avenue west of the Bowmanville Creek is a
former dump site that is currently owned by CLOCA. 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.

Mearns and CPR
MEMO
The property on the north side of Cotton Street, east of Mearns Avenue and south of the
CP rail line is owned by the Municipality of Clarington. 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.

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.

Subject: Granville Dr. / William Ingles Dr. — Courtice — Three Way Stop Control
Investigation
File: Transportation
At the November 23-24, 2020 Council Meeting, Resolution #C-463-20, as amended,
was approved that directed staff to report back regarding the consideration for a three-
way (All -Way STOP) at the intersection of Granville Drive and William Ingles Drive in
Courtice. 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.

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 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.
Should you have any questions or need further information, please do not hesitate to
contact me.

sanitizing now required due to Covid. 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. Made by Marlene R. Seconded by Corinna. Defeated.
2. Ice Rink— discussion was had about continuing forward with the application and location of
the rink. Greg will look into this forward.
3. Board Dinner — it was felt that it would be best to not hold the dinner at this time and to
pause the dinner until a later date.
4. It was discussed about maybe just removing the line on our social media that states that we
are closed. It could be discussed as a board if there is any interest in the space being
rented. Marlene Craig motioned to purchase the required cleaning and PPE equipment up
to $200. Seconded by Corrina. Carried. It was felt that it would better to have it on hand
now before demand increases and supply is too low.
Motion to Adjourn by Lyndsay. Seconded by Marlene Raby.

that the rink supplies are ready and will be delivered once the weather is cold enough to have

Subject: Public Access Via Stairs to Municipal Property East of Mearns at Longworth
Avenue
File:
At the regular Council meeting held on Monday, November 23, 2020, Council passed
Resolution #C-465-20. 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.

Subject: Sidewalk on Main St Orono
File: CSW.Main St.2
At the November 30, 2020 General Government Committee meeting, Council
passed Resolution #GG-441-20 that directed staff to report back on the cost
and feasibility of constructing a sidewalk on Main St in Orono from Mill Pond Rd
to Sommerville Dr. Main St (Regional Rd 17) is owned by the Region of Durham
and the Municipality is responsible for constructing and maintaining sidewalks
on Regional roads.
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.

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.

Subject: RE: Town of Port Hope PG - PH Waste Transfer
Importance: High
EXTERNAL
Good afternoon Stephen,
As per our conversation of today, I understand that my previous communication to Ron Albright
(since departed from Clarington) providing our attached Council Resolution was circulated to
Clarington Council as a communication rather than for a decision. 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. Please confirm receipt and timing of your Council's
consideration of this request for support.
Regards,
Sue Bernardi
MPS Team Leader

Evaluation Summary Of Options
0
• Option A: 4-ward system with emphasis on population
parity. It preserves some communities of interest but allows
for a balanced population between wards.
• Option B: 4-ward system with emphasis on preservation of
communities of interest. This option has a distinct northern,
rural ward as well as distinct wards for Courtice, Newcastle
and Bowmanville. Population parity is not achieved.
• Option C: 5-ward system that attempts to strike a balance
between communities of interest and population parity.
Page 75 11
Next Steps
• Council can:
• Choose one of the recommended options;
• Can ask for changes or revisions to a recommended option;
• Take no action
• Should Council choose to implement new ward boundaries, they
would have to pass a new bylaw.
• Any action respecting ward boundary reconfigurations (including
taking no action) could be appealed to the Local Planning Appeals
Tribunal. A new bylaw can be appealed up to 45 days after
passage.

Report Overview
Page 2
The purpose of this report is to propose necessary updates to several Schedules of By-law
2014-059, as appended. 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. Changes also include new schooltime No Stopping restrictions on
north side, as requested by residents in the immediate area.
2.2. Schedule 2 — No Parking
Changes include:
• Cove Road — Housekeeping change to the schedule entry to better reflect the
limits of existing No Parking restriction.
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
the By-law.
Port Darlington Road — New No Parking restrictions, as a result of increased
activity at East Beach Park and due to COVID-19.
• Stuart Road — Housekeeping addition due to sightlines along the inside of the
curve, as identified by residents.
West Beach Road — New No Parking restrictions, as a result of increased activity
at West Beach Park and due to COVID-19.
2.3. Schedule 9 — Through Highways
Changes include:
• Housekeeping changes to through highway sections due to several All Way Stop
intersections being added.
2.4. Schedule 10 — Stop Signs
Changes include:
• New All Way Stop intersections installed at the following locations:
o George Reynolds Drive at Devondale Street (as directed by Council)
o Prestonvale Road at Robert Adams Dr/Phair Avenue (as directed by
Council)
o Yorkville Drive at Granville Drive (monitored and identified by staff)

Report PW D-001-21
2.5. Schedule 12 — Maximum Rate of Speed on Highway
Changes include:
• Darlington Boulevard — speed limit reduced to 40 km/h (as directed by Council)
• West Beach Road — speed limit reduced to 20 km/h (as directed by Council)
2.6. 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. The school offers no parking on -site and has been
utilizing the existing paved boulevard for drop off/pick up. U-Turns are
compromising the safety of others complying with the established procedures, as
well as causing damage to residents' frontages and driveways.
• Pebblestone Road — New No U-Turn restriction at a private driveway due to
conflict with traffic related to Witzke's Greenhouses
3. Concurrence
This report has been reviewed by the Municipal Clerk and the Municipal Solicitor who
concur with the recommendations.
4. Conclusion
It is respectfully recommended that Council accept the proposed changes to the
Schedules, as detailed in Attachment 1.

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.

Report Overview

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.

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

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.
Best regards,

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.

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.

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.

Clarington is divided into four wards, each of which elects one local Councillor, who sits
only on Clarington Council, and two Regional Councillors, who are each elected in a
pair of wards. 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.

The 2020 base population was developed at a sub -municipal level, which allowed the
Consultant Team to aggregate these blocks to determine populations for existing and
alternative ward options. 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.

5.2 Population Forecast, 2020 to 2030
The Consultant Team, in consultation with Municipal planning staff, prepared a
population forecast for Clarington through 2030. 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.

6. 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.

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.

Population data suggest that
two wards are outside of the

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.

communities that have few

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

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

10. 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.

Guiding Principles
The following principles will be used to evaluate the existing ward structure
and subsequent alternative options:
REPRESENTATION BY POPULATION
Ensure that every Councillor generally represents an equal number
of constituents while allowing for some variation
COMMUNITY OR DIVERSITY OF INTERESTS
Recognize community groupings and trying to keep them intact
EFFECTIVE REPRESENTATION
Evaluate the capacity of each ward to give residents an effective
voice in decision making
POPULATION TRENDS
Consider projected growth and population shifts over a three -
election cycle
COMMUNITY ACCESS AND CONNECTIONS
Reflect customary transportation/communication relationships
among communities
GEOGRAPHIC OR TOPOGRAPHICAL FEATURES
Ward boundaries should be recognizable and where possible use
permanent/natural features

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.

fireworks on Diwali.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Being a by-law to delegate authority to the Assessment Review Board to
exercise certain powers and functions of Council pursuant to Section
357(1)(d.1) of the Municipal Act, 2001.
Whereas subsection 357(1)(d.1) of the Municipal Act, 2001 as amended, authorizes
applications to be made to the Treasurer of a municipality for the cancellation, reduction or
refund of taxes levied in the year in respect of which the application is made where such

Whereas subsection 357 (11) of the Municipal Act, 2001 as amended, authorizes the Council
to pass a by-law to provide that the Assessment Review Board shall exercise the powers and
functions of the Council under subsection 357(1)(d.1) and (5) with respect to the applications
under subsection 357(1)(d.1) of the Act; and
Whereas any such by-law passed by Council shall apply to applications made in and after the
year in which such by-law is passed and shall continue to apply until repealed; and
Whereas it is deemed expedient and appropriate by the Municipality of Clarington that the
Assessment Review Board exercise the functions of Council under subsection 357(1)(d.1) of
the Municipal Act, 2001 for the current year and each year hereafter until repealed;

subsections 357(1) and (5), with respect to applications made under subsection
357(1)(d.1) of the Municipal Act, 2001.

MOVED BY Councillor Zwart
SECONDED BY Councillor Anderson
Whereas at the meeting of November 23, 2020, the Council of the Municipality of
Clarington approved Resolution #GG-391-20, that directed the Public Works
Department to provide winter maintenance on various trails to encourage outdoor
exercise in an effort to improve our physical, mental health and general overall
well-being due to COVID-19; and
Whereas a popular section of the Samuel Wilmot trail system between
Cobbledick Road and Toronto Street in Newcastle could not be included with this
program due to the steep grades on the trail system that may potentially create
an unsafe maintenance situation;
Now Therefore It Be Resolved:
1. That the Public Works Department be directed to include snow removal on
the approximate 1 kilometer section of trail through the Foster Creek
Valley between Sunset Boulevard and Gusel Avenue in Newcastle;
2. That pre -budget approval be given to complete this additional work for the
2020-2021 Winter Season; and

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.
