FARMHOUSE & VINEYARD
April 21, 2022
To Mayor Adrian Foster and Clarington Town Council,
Thank you in advance for your consideration of the following request. 1840 Farmhouse &
Vineyard is a family run vineyard and winery in Orono. We have 8 acres of grapes planted on
our farm and we take great pride in this ground -breaking endeavour and hope to highlight the
unique agricultural potential in the Municipality of Clarington. We are striving to produce
exceptional Canadian wines in Clarington. We have successfully obtained all necessary federal
and provincial licenses in order to grow, process, manufacturer and sell wine from our farm's
location.
Obviously when our customers come to our premises to purchase a bottle of wine many would
like the opportunity to taste the product by drinking a glass on site. The Alcohol and Gaming
Commission of Ontario ("AGCO") requires that we obtain a "By -the -Glass" Endorsement or
amendment to our licence to allow clients to enjoy a glass of wine on our premise. One of the
requirements to obtaining the said Endorsement is a resolution of support from Council. Please
note that the AGCO and CRA closely regulate all licensees, with smart serve requirements, set
hours (11am-6pm) and closely monitors activity with monthly reporting required. Periodic
inspections for compliance are also standard.
We humbly ask for your support of our agricultural business and growth of this new industry in
Clarington. We hope to draw people to the area to visit our winery and vineyards and the "By
the Glass" Endorsement will increase our appeal and our ability to promote not only our
agricultural product/business but surrounding businesses and agriculture experiences in the
area.
Yours Truly,
Natasha Lawrence, Philip Lawrence

Hello, my name is Dustin Scheenaard and I live at 88 Penfound Dr in Bowmanville. The neighbor on the north side of me
has many bird feeders up, in excess of 10 in a single tree along with some squirrel feeders. I my property and vehicles
are constantly covered in bird crap and the squirrels are dragging the peanut shells onto my yard 10-15 meters away. His
property is covered in birdseed and shells. I have seen anywhere from 50-100 birds in the trees at times. I approached
the home owner and ask if he could reduce the number of feeders. He replied "absolutely not, it's my favorite past
time".
I contacted Ajax by law and this is what they have in place:
8. NUISANCE FEEDING OF ANIMALS
8.1 No person shall throw or place, or permit to be thrown or placed, any type of food, for the purposes of feeding any
birds, wildlife, or animals found to be running at large.
8.2 Section 8.1 of this By-law shall not apply to bird feeders that are suspended off the ground, dispense commercially
available bird food such as seeds and nectars.
8.3 No person shall be permitted to have more than 3 bird feeders located on any property.
8.4 Every owner of a bird feeder shall:
(a) keep the bird feeder clean by regularly disinfecting with a mild bleach solution; and
(b) maintain the ground underneath the bird feeder by regularly raking the ground thoroughly to remove grain and
bird droppings.
I would maybe suggest adding a size limitation as well to the bird feeders.
Since the town dredged out the storm water ponds behind Ross Tilley public school our neighborhood has been battling
rats that have pushed up to the neighborhood now. This is just another food source and adding to that problem.
I appreciate your time

Dear Rob:
RE: Host Community Agreement Dispute
Further to our virtual meeting last week, this is to confirm that I have
received instructions from my client to ensure that this matter
continues to progress towards a conclusion. My client appreciates
the efforts of Clarington and the staff who participated in the
mediation to reach a resolution. However, recognizing that some time
has passed since the mediation concluded without an agreement, the
Region took the step of terminating the mediation, by letter dated
905-668-7711 December 7, 2021
1-800-372-1102 1 understand from Clarington's response letter dated January 4,
Fax: 905-668-4752
durham.ca 2022, that your client took issue with the Region's termination of the
Mediation and suggested that termination was premature.
Don Beaton Unfortunately, the Region's position remains unchanged as
BCom, M.P.A. confirmed in our letter dated January 6, 2022. Further, the Region
Commissioner of
Corporate Services does not accept that the HCA applies to the AD Facility. The Region
participated in the mediation in an effort to understand Clarington's
objections to the siting of the Mixed Waste Pre -Sort and Anaerobic
Digester Facility (the "AD Facility") and to work to reach a resolution
which satisfied both parties. As of December 7, 2021, Clarington had
not accepted the offer to settle presented at the mediation, nor had
the Region received a responding offer to settle acceptable to our
client.
As efforts to resolve this matter have failed, the Region intends to
move forward with the development of the AD Facility as approved by
Regional council.
If you require this information in an accessible format, please call 1-800-372-1102 extension 2166.
Page 16
If Clarington does in fact intend to advance this dispute further, it is
my client's position that the HCA does not apply. In order to achieve
the required clarity and to ensure that this matter moves forward I
have recommended to my client that an application be brought before
the Superior Court of Justice seeking a declaration that that the HCA
does not speak to or have any bearing on the location of the AD
Facility within the Clarington Energy Business Park.
My client would like to avoid the costs of such an application as well
as engaging in further dispute with Clarington on this matter. A formal
withdrawal of Clarington's dispute under the HCA would avoid the
need to take this issue to Superior Court. I would be pleased to
discuss this option further at your convenience.
Further, the Region remains open, on a limited basis, to a timely
acceptance of the offer it made in September. This offer provides
significant benefits to Clarington, including benefits which Clarington
is not otherwise entitled or likely to receive should the matter proceed
to Court.
Yours Truly,
Arend J. Wakeford

Report Overview
Page 2
The purpose of this report is to amend the Traffic and Parking By-law 2014-051. The
recommended amendment will allow for the installation of a new All Way STOP condition at
Trulls Road and Strathallan Drive/Avondale Drive to help improve safety and right-of-way
control at this intersection.
1. Background
1.1 The Traffic and Parking By-law 2014-059 serves to compliment the Ontario Highway
Traffic Act and provides a set of rules to help control traffic and parking in Clarington. As
a legislative requirement, STOP and other select signs must be included in the by-law in
order to be enforceable. Staff continuously monitor local traffic situations and are
recommending a new All Way STOP intersection to be installed in Courtice.
2. Recommended All Way STOP intersection
Trulls Road at Strathallan Drive/Avondale Drive
2.1 The recent property development at the southeast corner of Highway 2 and Trulls Road
in Courtice includes FreschCo, Shoppers Drug Mart, Dollarama, Starbucks, Mary
Browns as confirmed tenants to date. The site is still under development and will result
in additional trip generators. Currently, the only egress to the west is via the newly built
Avondale Drive section onto Trulls Road. In the future, Avondale Drive will extend and
connect with the existing section of Avondale Drive to the east, and will provide access
to Highway 2 via a new street and a traffic signal at a midpoint between Trulls Road and
Courtice Road. However, the timing of this addition is unknown. Since opening of the
plaza, staff have received several requests for traffic control at Trulls Road and
Avondale Drive to aid vehicles and pedestrians in accessing and exiting the plaza.
2.2 Staff have conducted several traffic studies in 2021 targeting weekdays and a weekend,
and have applied the vehicular and pedestrian traffic data to the Clarington's All Way
STOP Warrant. The following was found:
• Data collected Wednesday, September 29, 2021
o Total required traffic volume warranted at 269%
o Minor Street entering volume warranted at 194%
o Traffic split at 24% (required minimum is 25%)
Page 19
Municipality of Clarington
Report PWD-014-22
• Data collected Saturday, October 2, 2021
o Total required traffic volume warranted at 248%
o Minor Street entering volume warranted at 181 %
o Traffic split at 24% (required minimum is 25%)
Based on the above results, and with the anticipated near future growth, staff
recommend an All Way STOP at this intersection.
3. Concurrence

This report has been reviewed by the Director of Legislative Services who concurs with
the recommendations.
4. Conclusion
It is respectfully recommended that the above All Way STOP at Trulls Road and
Avondale Drive be approved so the Traffic and Parking By-law 2014-051 can be
updated.

GENERAL GOVERNMENT COMMITTEE MEETING
RESOLUTION #
DATE: May 9, 2022
MOVED BY Councillor Anderson
SECONDED BY Councillor Zwart
Whereas, at the regular Council meeting held on December 13, 2021, Council

to undertake the preparation of a comprehensive Parks Master Plan for the
Bowmanville Zoo lands that would include design concepts and cost estimates
for any new recommended recreational facilities or amenities, including
investigation into a possible skating trail as previously requested by Council;
And Whereas Staff of the Public Works Department were required, after
consultation with various stakeholders, to submit a report to Council on the
matter prior to the end of October, 2022;
And Whereas the Directors of the Valley's 2000 organization have recently

development, enhancement, promotion and preservation of the lands;
And Whereas the Valley's 2000 group have also committed to solely fund and
procure a specialized planning consultant to assist with the creation of a themed
use for the new park and to develop a major contributing donor list that will help

Report Subject: Amendment to Emergency Management By -Law 2018-010
Recommendations:
1. That Report ESD-002-22 be received; and
2. That the draft By -Law (Attachment 1 of the Report ESD- 002-22), amending the
Emergency Management By-law 2018-010, regarding Emergency Management
Program Committee members and members of the Municipal Emergency Control

Report Overview
Page 2
The purpose of this report is to update the current Emergency Management By -Law to
reflect the recent Organizational restructure. In addition, this report also recommends
amending the number members of the Emergency Control Group to create a more efficient
and streamlined process.
1. Background
1.1 Council approved By -Law 2018-010, known as the "Emergency Management By -Law"
on February 5, 2018 pursuant to the Emergency Management and Civil Protection Act
(EMCPA). The Emergency Plan, including the By-law undergoes annual compliance
review by the Office of Fire Marshal and Emergency Management (OFMEM).
1.2 Council approved By -Law 2018-072 on September 17, 2018 amending section 2.6
appointing members of the Emergency Management Program Committee.
1.3 As part of the 2021 compliance review, the OFMEM recommends the by-law be
amended to reflect the current Organizational structure. It should also be noted,
considering the recommendation by the OFMEM, the Municipality was in compliance
with the EMPCA.
2. Discussion
2.1 By -Law 2018-072, Section 2.6, appoints the Director of Operations and Director of
Engineering as members of the Emergency Management Program Committee.
2.2 Section 2.7 of the By -Law 2018-072 appoints members to the Municipal Emergency
Control Group (MECG). The current members appointed within the By -Law:
a) Mayor;
b) Chief Administrative Officer;
c) Director of Emergency and Fire Services;

m) Manager of Information Technology

2.3 The recent Covid emergency has identified means to be more efficient. The use of
technology has allowed for meetings to be conducted virtually thus reducing the need to
be in -person within the Emergency Operations Centre (EOC).
2.4 Ontario Regulation 380/04, Section 12(8), allows for MECG members to consult with
other persons or organizations relating to emergency management. The use of
technology will allow MECG members seek consultation on matters specifically related
to the emergency thus reducing the need for a larger group to convene in the EOC.
3. Recommendation
3.1 It is recommended that Section 2.6 of the By -Law be amended to remove the Director of
Operations and Director of Engineering and it be replaced with the Director of Public
Works.
3.2 It is recommended that Section 2.7 of the By -Law be amended to appoint the following
as members of the Municipal Emergency Control Group:
a) Mayor;
b) Chief Administrative Officer;
c) Director of Emergency and Fire Services;

Report CSD-010-22
Report Overview
Staff presented report CSD-007-21 on October 18, 2021. The report outlined the ongoing
challenges being faced by Community Hall and Arena Boards in meeting the requirements of
the Reopening Ontario Act (ROA). Through that report, Resolution C-322-21 directed the
Director of Financial Services/Treasurer to provide funding for the proof of vaccination
process, utilizing the COVID-19 Recover Funds and/or Safe Restart funds. The
arrangement was to remain in place until March 31, 2022, or earlier if amendments were
made to the ROA to eliminate the need for proof of vaccination.
Staff committed to reporting back in the spring of 2022 on the total costs of supporting the
proof of vaccination requirements. This report identifies that the total cost for proof of
vaccination is $25,920.14 for the hall and arena boards.
1. Background
1.1 Starting at the beginning of the pandemic, staff recognized the impact of the closures on
our Community Hall and Arena Boards. As a result, different financial supports were put
in place to assist the boards.
1.2 Most recently, through report CSD-007-21, it was identified that to meet the
requirements under the Reopening Ontario Act (ROA), vaccination status was required
to be verified when entering recreation facilities, starting on September 22, 2021,
including Community Halls and Arenas. The requirement was lifted by the Province of
Ontario as of March 1, 2022.
1.3 To support our community hall and arena operations, Council, through resolution C-322-
21 identified the need to support our Community Hall and Arena Boards to meet these
requirements. Boards were able to access support in one of two ways. Boards could
either choose to pay for their own verification process and then submit costs to the
Municipality for reimbursement, or the Boards could choose to access the Security
company under contract to the Municipality.
1.4 Community Services staff were responsible to work with each Board to, either make the
necessary arrangements to schedule private security services, or to coordinate the
reporting of costs incurred by the Board and arrange for reimbursement.
1.5 Staff also worked with Finance to track the costs of providing this support to the Boards
and have outlined the financial impact in this report.

2. Financial Impact

2.1 Of the 11 eligible Boards, eight took advantage of the offered support for vaccine
verification. The locations included: Brownsdale Community Centre, Hampton
Community Association, Memorial Park Clubhouse, Newcastle Community Hall,
Newtonville Community Hall, Tyrone Community Centre, Orono Arena and Community
Centre and Newcastle Memorial Arena. The three Boards that did not use the service
are Haydon Community Hall, Orono Town Hall and Solina Community Centre.
2.2 The total cost for support for vaccine verification was $25,920.14 from October 2021
through March 1, 2022. As outlined in the resolution, the funding for this support was
taken from the Safe Restart Program funding.
3. Concurrence
3.1 This report has been reviewed by the Director of Financial Services/Treasurer who
concurs with the recommendation.
4. Conclusion
4.1 Resolution C-322-21 requested that staff report back to Council on the financial support
provided to Community Hall and Arena Boards to support the ROA requirements to
complete vaccine verification. The report outlines that the total cost for providing
support for that service was $25,920.14 from October 2021 to March 1, 2022. At that
time the requirement for vaccine verification was lifted by the Province of Ontario.
4.2 By directing staff to undertake this program, Council provided valuable assistance to our
volunteer boards, that unburdened them of the added operating costs for vaccination
verification. This helped remove one barrier as they worked through the many
challenges of reopening their operations to the members of their communities.

Report Overview
Page 2
Staff have used the opportunity provided by the pandemic to review several areas of service
delivery. Staff is currently completing reviews in the areas of Facility Rentals, Camps, and
Fitness Memberships. These reviews are being conducted for various reasons outlined in
this report. The key goals are to maximize facility usage to address community demand for
multi -purpose space, align camp fees to recover costs and align with other municipal
comparators and change fitness membership rates to be more reflective of service delivery
costs.
Part of these reviews provided an opportunity to evaluate the implementation and effective
dates of current rates. Currently, all rates, except outdoor permit fees, are effective from
September 1 to August 31 of each year. Staff is seeking consideration for an extension of
the current rates. Specifically, program and some indoor facility rates move to the same
schedule as outdoor permits, January 1 to December 31 each year. For ice, floor, and
indoor turf rates, we propose moving to a schedule of May 1 to April 30 of each year. The
difference between these service areas is related to the sports season they support;
changing fees during the peak of ice, floor and indoor turf season would pose unique
challenges to the major user groups, thereby supporting a different effective date for these
rates.
The newly proposed effective dates would require an extension of the existing rates as
previously approved by Council. The current rates are in effect until August 31, 2022.
Extensions would be required for programs and some indoor facility rates to December 31,
2022. Ice, floor, and indoor turf are proposed to see a 1.75% increase from September 1,
2022, to April 30, 2023. A full report with the new rates and changes to structures would be
proposed through the rates and fees report in September of 2022 for Council's
consideration.
1. Background
Improvements to Rates and Fees Process
1.1 The process of rates and fees (rates) has undergone improvements over the last
number of years. In 2019, program fees were converted to a per -hour rate, providing
staff flexibility to offer varying length programs (i.e.,12 weeks vs. 8 weeks depending on
the calendar). For the most part, Facility Rates remained unchanged in structure.
1.2 Prior to 2021, rates were approved every two years. In 2021, the rate report moved to
an annual approval to provide staff with the opportunity to be more responsive to new
trends and changing landscapes. Traditionally rates have been approved from
September 1 in the year of approval to the following August 31.
Page 33
Municipality of Clarington
Report CSD-011-22
Page 3
1.3 Outdoor permits transitioned to Community Services during this period will now be
included in future Community Services rates and fees reports, starting in September
2022. Council recently approved structural changes to outdoor sports fees, effective
January 1, 2022, to December 31, 2022.
1.4 Annually, staff benchmark various municipalities to ensure proposed rates fall in line
with our comparators, industry trends, and best practices.
1.5 The pandemic provided staff an opportunity to identify areas that should be reviewed for
potential service delivery improvements, including the effective dates of rates. As a
result of those evaluations, reviews are being conducted in camps, fitness, and facilities.
As a result of the work required for these reviews, some extensions of rates are
required, as proposed in this report.
2. Rationale for Extending Current Fees
Facility Rates
2.1 Over the last number of years (prior to the pandemic) staff has seen an increased
community demand for community rental space. This can be for various reasons
including social events, community meetings, special events, and community group
programming. As a result of the increased demand, Community Services is looking to
expand what spaces in current recreation facilities can be made available for booking.
This will increase facility use of underutilized space and meet the community demand
for booking requests.
2.2 To meet the expansion of bookable spaces, a restructuring of facility rates is required.
The restructuring will ensure that appropriate rates are charged for each space.
2.3 As part of the restructuring, rooms are being categorized and appropriate uses per room
are being defined. Spaces previously used solely for programming will now be available
for community use, around our planned programs. This will provide an opportunity to
maximize facility usage.
2.4 Ice, Floor, and Indoor Turf rates operate differently than indoor multi -purpose space,
mainly because of the sports season these amenities support. The major sports user
groups using these amenities often set their registration fees for the duration of the
season. Implementing a rental rate increase in the middle of their season could pose
unique challenges to those groups. As a result, staff recommends different effective
dates for rates associated with arenas and indoor turf.
2.5 Considering the changes staff are working on, the recommendation is to change the
effective date for the ice, floor, and indoor turf from September 1 to August 31 of each
year, to May 1 to April 30. With inflationary increases, staff is recommending an interim
Page 34
Municipality of Clarington
Report CSD-011-22
Page 4
increase of 1.75% to these rates (Attachment 1). Staff will continue to assess the
operating costs in these areas and recommend any additional changes for consideration
as part of the rate report to Council in September 2022.
Camp Rates
2.6 Staff completed a benchmarking exercise comparing Clarington's camp offerings
against other GTHA municipalities and with municipalities to the east. Upon
investigation, staff found that there were efficiencies to be found in specialty camps,
transportation, purchasing of supplies/materials, camp ratios, and staff qualifications.
2.7 To address these areas of potential efficiencies, staff have undertaken a review of the
categories for camps, and what is to be included in each category. The goal of this
exercise is to align Clarington camps with industry best practices.
2.8 Restructuring of the camp rates and definitions allows staff to align fees with the costs
for delivery of the program. The new recommendations will be included in the
September report. The currently approved fees are effective August 31, 2022, therefore
requiring an extension to December 31, 2022.
Fitness and Membership Rates
2.9 The pandemic had a significant impact on our fitness service area. Staff has been
reviewing the current structure of membership packages and evaluating the level of cost
recovery of each current membership. The pandemic saw operating hours impacted,
while costs for memberships have remained the same, creating a potential disparity that
is important for staff to address.
2.10 An area identified regularly by the customer base is the lack of clarity surrounding the
differences between the 55+ membership compared to a regular fitness membership.
Staff is working to improve the distinction between memberships through this review
and improve the information to customers.
2.11 Benchmarking across comparable municipalities and private sector fitness providers is
part of the review. The benchmarking provides insight into industry standards and best
practices. Part of the benchmarking exercise included a survey of current fitness
members to assess what is most important to them.
2.12 The goal of the membership review is to streamline membership packages making
costs representative of the services being provided and continue to provide family -
friendly and affordable options that are easy to understand. This will maintain our
position with our residents of being seen as a family -friendly option and a viable
alternative to the private sector.

2.13 The current membership rates will require an extension to December 31, 2022, and the
new proposal will be included in the September rate report.

4. Conclusion
4.1 It is respectfully recommended that Council approve an extension of the program and
indoor facility multi -purpose rental fees to December 31, 2022. That ice, floor, and
indoor turf rates be approved with an increase of 1.75% from September 1, 2022, to
April 30, 2023.
4.2 These extensions, if approved, will enable staff to complete their reviews and include
improvement recommendations to Council in a comprehensive Community Services
Rates and Fees Report at the September Joint Committee meeting in September 2022.
Approval of these extensions/increases also positions Community Services rates and
fees to align with and inform operating budget submissions in future years. This
alignment will position services to move toward a cost -recovery model and increase the
efficiency of service delivery.
4.3 Staff will continue to be mindful of the tax supported needs for our operating costs, while
keeping access to our facilities, programs, and services affordable for the members of
our community.

Report To: General Government Committee
From: Truth and Reconciliation Staff Committee
Date: May 9, 2022
Re: Update from Truth and Reconciliation Staff Committee
Background
On July 5, 2021, through Resolution #GG-424-21, Council directed staff to "examine the
Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada's 94 Calls to Action, in consultation with
our relevant Advisory Committees, and members of our Indigenous community, and
report back to Council by early 2022 to identify recommendations that the Municipality
could undertake to move forward with reconciliation."
A Truth and Reconciliation Staff Committee (TRSC) was formed with representatives
from various departments. The Committee is made up of staff who currently engage or
have experience engaging with our Indigenous communities, and those who work in
areas that could inform and support the various themes identified in the Calls to Action.
Councillor Margaret Zwart also expressed an interest in participating and joined the
Committee.
The TRSC began work in October 2021 with an initial focus on learning about the Truth
and Reconciliation Commission (TRC)'s work, conducting an overview of the Calls to
Action and participating in education opportunities to have a better understanding of the
issues.
Initial Process
Initially, the Committee reviewed the TRC's Calls to Action, identifying any work and
initiatives (such as offering training for staff and Council and recognizing the National Day
for Truth and Reconciliation) that are currently being undertaken as a corporation that
support the Calls to Action. Committee members also connected with other
municipalities across Canada who have done similar work to learn best practices and
share resources.

1-800-563-1195 1 Local:905-623-3379 1 info@clarington.net I www.clarington.net
Page 38
Page 2
In reviewing the Calls to Action, Committee members examined the items that were
aimed at different levels of government with a focus on items directed at a local level.
The Committee examined what the Municipality could implement to further some of the
Calls to Action and what staff resources and community support were available to assist.
Consultation
A large part of the work will include consultation with our Indigenous communities. It is
vital that we meet with the various Indigenous communities to understand their needs and
priorities to ensure their rights and interests are included in any recommended strategy or
action plan. We need to move forward collaboratively to ensure that our work rebuilds
trust and fosters inclusive and transparent relationships focused on learning from past
mistakes and building a future by taking real actions that demonstrate real change. A
working group of the TRSC has been formed to focus on consultation.
Orange Crosswalk
In September 2021, Council directed staff to investigate an Orange Crosswalk
representing awareness of Indigenous Communities (Resolution #JC-019-21). The idea
came from multiple Clarington residents. Since then, staff consulted with Clarington's
Diversity Advisory Committee who expressed support for a public recognition for our
Indigenous communities, like a crosswalk. The Diversity Advisory Committee
recommended further consultation with our local Indigenous community to identify the
best way to show recognition and support.
Through discussions with colleagues in other Durham Region municipalities, staff learned
that many other municipalities are looking to consult on similar initiatives. To be
respectful of the Indigenous community's capacity, a joint consultation request on behalf
of four of the lakeshore municipalities is being coordinated through the Region of
Durham's Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Unit.
Next Steps
The work being undertaken by the TRSC, in consultation with our Indigenous
communities, is a transformational journey and part of an ongoing process of learning
and rebuilding relationships. This will take time as we embark on this journey,
considering the number of municipalities looking to consult with Indigenous communities.
Meaningful consultation and relationship building is a long process, one that the TRSC is
committed to. The staff committee will provide Council with incremental updates on our
ongoing work and seek Council approval when decisions are needed.

Since this work is starting conversations and prompting staff across Departments to find
ways to incorporate reconciliation into the programs and services we provide, Council
may receive additional updates about service delivery or program changes as these
occur.
