ROLL CALL Present Were: Mayor D. Hamre Councillor J. Mutton Councillor M. Novak Councillor J. Rowe Councillor J. Schell Councillor C.Trim Councillor T. Young Also Present: Chief Administrative Officer,W. H. Stockwell Director of Community Services,J. Caruana Fire Chief,M. Creighton Solicitor, D. Hefferon Treasurer,M. Marano Director of Public Works, S. Vokes Director of Planning and Development,F. Wu Clerk,P. Barrie I DECLARATIONS OF INTEREST Councillor Mutton indicated that he would be making a declaration of interest with respect to Correspondence Item D - 3. I Councillor Rowe indicated that she would be making a declaration of interest with respect to Item#3 of Report #1. Franklin Wu, Director of Planning and Development stated that he is in receipt of a letter dated February 3, 1998, from Linda Gasser pertaining to the Lishman Proposal. He stated that this letter contains innuendo and defamatory remarks and alludes that the Lishman Proposal has received preferential treatment by him. He indicated that the allegations contained in the letter are false and are an attack on his professional integrity. MINUTES OF PREVIOUS MEETING Resolution #C-95-98 I Moved by Councillor Trim, seconded by Councillor Mutton THAT the minutes of a regular meeting of Council held on January 26, 1998, be approved. "CARRIED" I I i Council Minutes - 2 - February 9, 1998 DELEGATIONS i Linda Gasser, advised Council that the letter dated February 3, 1998,which the Director of Planning and Development referred to,was not a personal attack on him. This letter was dealing with the Environmental Impact Study process and she feels the decision to determine that the study was not applicable should have been made by Council, not by one individual. i Mrs. Gasser addressed Council with respect to Report PD-12-98 and advised that several people who spoke during the General Purpose and Administration Committee meeting of February 2, 1998, said that they would support the Lishman's proposal if they were to relocate to properly serviced industrial land. With the rapid expansion of the municipality on the residential front, urban sprawl is resulting. Without carefully managed growth, not only will urbanization threaten the lifestyle for which many chose Clarington in the first place,it will lead to dire financial consequences for the municipality. Because residential development is not self-financing,municipalities look for commercial and industrial assessment to pay for the shortfall and balance the books. Desirable and sustainable economic development requires a consistent and professional approach which takes into account the variety of needs and wants of the residents and businesses of this municipality. Mrs. Gasser indicated that in the year 1989, the most recent figures available,sport fishing related spending in Durham I Region amounted to $20.8 million. Agriculture is the largest industry in Clarington and, according to the 1996 census, the gross value of farm production in Durham Region was $208.2 million. Degradation of streams and valleys and fragmentation of the agricultural land base will be the legacy of the Lishman development and the other projects that will surely follow this one. She urged Council to carefully evaluate the proposal and to deal with the facts. She also requested that Council revisit the exemption granted the Lishman proposal with respect to the Environmental Impact Study requirement.

HAMRE FROM: KAREN MOLONEY j Your Worship, I would like to take a few minutes to tell you what a positive impression I have been left with after dealing with a few of the Town of Clarington Town Hall staff . As a first time mortgage holder and home owner, I was in the dark about setting up a tax payment plan with the Town. As soon as I walked into the Town Hall 'taxation/revenue' area I was greeted by a friendly lady ( later determined to be DOREEN GEBOERS as her picture was in the newspaper) . MRS. GEBOERS was extremely informative and helpful . I was assisted in the same manner by other staff members during my subsequent dealings with the 'taxation' dept. It is quite refreshing to have such 'people' persons working on the front line for the Town, and it makes me glad that I chose Clarington in which to reside!

COMMUNIQUE Federation of Canadian Municipalities Presents a Case for District Energy Systems to the House of Commons Standing Committee on Environment and Sustainable Development (Ottawa) — In the context of the Kyoto summit and Canada's commitment to the reduction of greenhouse gases, the Federation of Canadian Municipalities (FCM) presented a brief on district energy systems today to the House of Commons Standing Committee on Environment and Sustainable Development, Municipal governments across the country are exploring methods of improving energy efficiency to realize budget savings and to minimize negative impacts on the environment. District energy systems, commonplace throughout northern Europe, are a mmer ally co 01 proven technology which provides environmentally sound energy for several buildings sharing central energy resources, FCM's Working Group on Community Energy Systems (CES) encourages municipal governments to implement this innovative technology which Is uncommon in Canada. Initial Investment, which includes planning, engineering and financing costs, is substantial and frequently viewed as a disincentive. Ann MacLean, Mayor of New Glasgow, N.S. and Chair of FCM's Working Group, outlined challenges encountered by municipally elected officials and their staff. 'Municipalities are seeking creative ways to improve their bottom line and assume greater environmental responsibility, However, investments In district energy systems do not occur on a level playing field as compared to competing energy investments. To harness environmental gains and engage further municipal governments, changes are required in tax treatment" Current tax treatment of district energy systems impedes private sector involvement through partnerships. This is a fundamental problem given that the development of district energy systems projects is, in most cases, championed by the public sector. FCM strongly believes that making district energy eligible for capital cost allowance depreciation under Class 43.1 of the Income Tax Act would assist municipal governments In attracting private partners for the development of such projects. Other difficulties must be faced in bringing district energy systems on line In Canada. A greater emphasis on education is required to inform municipal decision-makers that alternatives do exist, that these systems deliver and are financially viable. There is also a need to create a climate which supports responsible Innovation and a framework which will help to enable municipal governments financially-among the options are preferential interest rates and extended pay back periods. -2- FCM advocates the establishment of a National Atmospheric Fund to provide grants and loans to projects and initiatives that reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Such a fund could be modeled on the Toronto Atmospheric Fund which is the centrepiece of one of the great municipally driven environmental success stories in the world. Mayor MacLean commented that success Is within our grasp. "Our members have the will to act and many have started the process, Opportunities have been clearly identified and there is a desire to embrace environmehtally responsible change. Today district energy systems are a part of the solution to ensure the longterm viability of communities and a natural area for municipal government involvomont. What is required now Is federal action that will respond to the challenges before us - action that will result in a cleaner atmosphere and energy efficient communities." j In addition to recommending changes in tax treatment and the creation of National Atmospheric Fund, FCM also urged the federal government to: • develop financial incentives to favour the development of municipal CES projects; • connect federal properties to municipal based CES projects where environmental benefits are clear and costs are comparable; • and, establish demonstration projects. i FCU has been recognized as the national voice of municipal governments since 1937. Some 630 municipal governments in every province and ter?*ory are curmntly members, representing a combined population of over 20 million. In aWition, the 17 major provincial and territorial municipal associations are members and represented on our!National Board of Directors, -30- For more information contact ; Alex Smith, Manager, Communications and Public Relations Tel. ; (613) 241-5221; Fax: (613) 241-7440 Cellular , 850-1010; e-mail: asmith d@fcm.ca Visit our website at www.fcm.ca i TOWNSHIP OF HOPE COUNCIL INFORMATION 1-5 P.O.

The Honourable Ralph Goodale, Minister of of Natural Resources Canada, G ' A 580 Booth Street, Ottawa, Ontario, K1A OE4. Dear Minister Goodale: Re: Low Level Radioactive Waste In discussing what we consider to have been a most productive meeting between representatives of Port Hope, Hope Township and your Ministry, we look forward to timely meetings to proceed with our discussions. In this regard, we wish to have our next meeting with you on or before March 15'`, which* meeting will include our Ad-hoc Committee. In preparation for our next meeting, would you please provide us with a reasonably detailed description of what will constitute completion of a total cleanup of radioactive waste in this area. We know the LLRW is located at the Port Granby site, the Welcome site, in the Port Hope landfill and other areas in Port Hope, including the Port Hope Harbour, the Cameco plant, etc., all of which require proper storage. Once agreement can be obtained on this, all further steps will be greatly facilitated. It seems to us that the entire LLRW problem must be put on the table and then we can break it down into components. Yours very truly, - ian W. M. Angus, B. Eng., LL.B., P.

As you may be aware,the Services Improvement Act was passed on December 8, 1997. Schedule B (Amendments to the Building Code Act, 1992,the Environmental Protection Act and the Ontario Water Resources Act)is expected to take effect on April 6, 1998 and will: - transfer authority for regulating smaller on-lot sewage systems to the Building Code Act and Building Code in order to facilitate"one-window"permit issuance; - introduce new certification requirements for installers and inspectors; - assign septics delivery to existing agents in northern Ontario;and - set out various transitional measures. Detailed provisions are set out in the new Ontario Building Code regulations attached for your reference. This letter highlights some of the key things you need to know and actions you need to take in order to be ready for April 6, 1998. Copies of the Services Improvement Act and the Building Code Act can be obtained from the Government Bookstore by calling 1-800-668-9938 or by visiting the Housing Development and Buildings Branch's home page at http://obc.mmah.gov.on.ca. Sewage Systems Covered by the OBC • Generally those systems with a design capacity less than 10,000 litres/day and which serve one lot will be regulated under the Building Code. • Systems larger than 10,0001itres/day and off-lot(communal) sewage systems will be regulated under the Ontario Water Resources Act,with approvals issued by the Ministry of Environment. MOE will also regulate waste approvals for the hauling of sewage and i land application sites under Part V of the Environmental Protection Act. Effective Date • The septics regulations, together with the new edition of the Ontario Building Code, i r L i i will come into force on April 6, 1998. Please note the revised effective date of the Building Code. i • The attached regulations also include some minor housekeeping amendments to the new Building Code which were required to address renumbered sections, etc. e Enforcement of the Act and Regulations • As of April 6, 1998, septic standards enforcement will become the responsibility of municipalities, as part of their responsibility for enforcement of the Building Code. • In northern Ontario, Building Code enforcement for sewage systems will be the responsibility of existing delivery agents,primarily boards of health, as well as the North Bay-Mattawa Conservation Authority and the Township of the Archipelago. • While municipalities become responsible for enforcing sewage system standards,the legislation allows municipalities to delegate this responsibility,by agreement,to upper- tier municipalities, boards of health or conservation authorities. • If your municipality will not be taking on this responsibility as of April 6, 1998, you should contact your local board of health,conservation authority,upper-tier municipality or an adjacent municipality to identify an appropriate service provider. Technical Standards i • The technical standards for sewage systems are generally the same as those which were included in Regulation 358 under the Environmental Protection Act. These are now contained in Part 8 of the Building Code • Some changes have been made to the standards,however,to ensure conformity with the structure of the Building Code and to reflect input which the Ministry of Environment received during the consultation on Regulation 358 last summer. Installer and Inspector Qualifications and Training • Pan 2 of the Building Code contains new qualification requirements for septics installers and inspectors. The requirements are contained in sections 2.11 and 2.12 of the Building Code. • For inspectors, the regulations require that the person must successfully complete an examination administered by the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing and file certain information by April 6, 1998. 2 i • Attached to this letter is a copy of the form which is required to be completed in order to provide information about a person's qualifications as a sewage system inspector. • For installers, the regulations require that persons in the business of constructing on site, installing, repairing, servicing,cleaning or emptying sewage systems obtain a licence. A key condition for obtaining that licence will be that sewage system construction, installation, repair, etc., be supervised by a person who has successfully completed an examination administered by the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing. • The Building Code provides for an extension for experienced installers and inspectors. These persons must obtain an"interim"qualification which gives them until April 6, 1999 to pass the examination. • The Ministry will begin providing training and examinations for installers and inspectors on March 2, 1998. Attached to this letter is a schedule of training dates and locations, together with a course registration form. Implementation • Municipalities which will be enforcing septic system standards as of April 6, 1998 should consider the need for a new by-law or an update to an existing by-law related to matters such as fees,permits, applications, forms and notices,etc. You will also need to ensure sewage system inspectors meet the qualifications set out in the Building Code. In view of the licensing requirements for installers,you may also wish to ascertain, through your municipality's permit application forms, information about the person who will be constructing the sewage system, e.g., about their licence,and about the qualified person who will be supervising the construction. • The Ministry has updated its"Guide to Preparing a Municipal Building By-law"to address issues related to septic systems. Copies of the Guide are available on the Housing Development and Buildings Branch's home page at http://obc.mmah.gov.on.ca. Transition • Part 12 of the Building Code contains transition provisions. In general,all proceedings which relate to certificates of approval and ot'ders issued or appeals commenced under the EnN-ironmental Protection Act prior to April 6, 1998 will be completed under that legislation by the delivery agent which was enforcing the legislation prior to April 6, 1998. • For permits, orders and appeals undertaken on or after April 6, 1998,the Building Code Act and the Building Code will be the effective legislation and regulation. 3 i i The Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing and the Ministry of Environment are committed to ensuring a smooth and orderly transition of the regulation of smaller on-lot sewage systems.

As a result of a number of developments, the dates for Canada L1N eA3 (906)668.7711 these two events may be postponed. 1 x:(908)688.9963 Ilvan cluclure In early January, I advised Emergency Measures Ontario (EMO)that a number of clr atorof .• fundamental planning Issues had arisen which require resolution before the PNEP f-eror Measures planning process can be completed. The situation was exacerbated by the ice storm emergency In the Province which demanded the full commitment of the EMO staff.. Because of the complexity of the planning issues and the delay caused by the ice storm, it was recommended that the Province delay the implementation date of the new PNEP.and the exercise. On 3 February 1998, 1 met•wlth the Director and senior staff of EMO to discuss the situation. EMO agreed that there should be a postponement of both the PNEP' cutover date and the CANATEX exercise. It was our position that both the cutover and the exercise should be' postponed to at least late fall. While it is clear that EMO Is considering a postponement, discussions have not yet been held with Ontario Hydro and other stakeholders. EMO requires the input from' these groups before a firm date can be made for re=scheduling these events. To summarize, I can advise you that the cutover to the new PNEP and-the CANATEX exercise almost certainly will be postponed. The new dates milli not be determined until EMO consults all stakeholders. I will ensure that you are updated as information becomes available. Should you have any questions, please contact me at (905)430-3673. Yours sincerely. }p T— ---j-- Ivan Ciuciura 3 ..- ........

Why this cannot be done? ?. Why the damage described by Ecoplans, 1996/7 cannot be mitigated to prevent further degradation? 3. Is Black Creek cold or warm stream? If it became warm stream, what caused it'? When it happened? Shouldn't this be reversed while there is still time'? 4. Willi each development application we were always assured by our Council, Planning Department and.Region, that CLOCA is making sure that the groundwater,cold- strearn creeks won't be damaged or degraded and that the mitigation will be done. Where is this assurance of protection? 5. Do you think that the Black Creek's designation change from cold stream to warm stream is "reasonable measure" to protect Second Marsh as per agreement'? 6. Why, when we know what is happening to Black Creek,is further development going to be approved prior to mitigation of past damage? 7. Do you think that Farewell Creek and Second Marsh will be spared from damage by letting Black Creek be degraded? If the answer is yes, would you please explain how do you propose to do that when Black Creek drains into Farewell Creek'? We were so hopeful that we will get your support in protection of our watershed as per your mandate and your past comments and concerns regarding Farewell/Black Creek watershed. Decision by Regional Planning Committee on Tuesday, February 3, 1998 raised our hope that this will be possible. We so appreciated their trying to help us. but unfortunately, the decision regarding the protection was passed on to you and our Planning departments. Your answer was negative.

A broader definition of'watershed plans'should also be provided. 1 The Region should be added as a party to any watershed planning study. Given the costs involved, the proponents of development should be required to fund watershed planning studies. Ministry of Natural Resources 1 The Official Plan should indicate that watershed plans will be prepared in partnership with the Ministry of Natural Resources, Conservation Authorities and other agencies. The Official Plan should encourage the preparation.of subwatershed plans,not Master Drainage Plans.

Secondary Plans must } have sufficient flexibility to incorporate the detailed findings of watershed studies. The Official Plan should indicate the willingness of-the Municipality to participate in watershed studies, and require the preparation of a subwatershed and/or Master Drainage Plan of the affected subwatershed prior to the approval of a plan of subdivision. Conservation Authorities should be recognized as the agency responsible for the preparation of watershed management plans. i A process to monitor the natural environment needs to be established so that sustainable development conceits can be evaluated. Hydrogeological assessments should address cumulative effects. ---_ If alternative storm water management measures such as surface drains, ditches and infiltration areas are not used in ground water recharge/discharge areas, then development 23 /1u1y,L N t i in these areas must be questioned. Higher urban densities may require existing storm water management facilities and plans to be re-evaluated. Storm water management options must j be developed which will be able to implement the ultimate Master Drainage Plans. Ganaraska Rerion Conservation Authority - I The Authority is supportive of the need to assess cumulative impacts of future development, as well as the development of watershed plans. The Municipality's active involvement in watershed planning studies, in particular the watershed study for the Ganaraska River watershed, is encouraged. The draft Plan's policies on storm water management should specifically address watershed planning, and should refer to sub-watershed plans rather than Master Drainage Plans. Stag Comments Incorporating watershed planning in the land use planning process I The preparation of comprehensive watershed plans as part of the Official Plan Review would not have been practical given the enormous costs and time required. Watershed studies should be undertaken by the. conservation authorities and relevant municipalities on a priority basis.However,each major watershed is divided into several smaller sub-watersheds. Much of the benefit that would have been derived from large-scale watershed plans can still j be achieved through planning studies based on these smaller sub watersheds. In most cases, subwatershed plans can be prepared subsequent to the Official Plan process and prior to the detailed evaluation stage associated with a plan of subdivision. In such case, it is necessary to have flexibility in the Official Plan to incorporate the detailed findings of watershed or subwatershed studies. In certain instances,where groundwater recharge/discharge areas are significant features and critical to the health of streams, it is important to have the results of the subwatershed studies to establish either the principle of development and/or the amount of development that can be accommodated without undue.impact. This approach should be used in the northerly.portions of Courtice. In order to provide for an orderly transition,however, this approach-should not be utilized in areas subject to approved Master Drainage Plans. Recommendations 3-1 7bat the Official Plan require the preparation of subwal&shed plans rather than Master Draiwg a Plans prior to the approval of plans of subdivision or other urban development applications. 3-2 That a watershed plan for the FareweQ Creek be prepared prior to the designation of land uses in the CourUce North neighbourhood (Deferral Arias-6) in tyre Durham Regional ofcial. 24 c PEOOLESTONC ROAD i F.

The population targets, as established, reflected the `intend �o Build* ,� lower-d6hsi.ties in order to preserve minor open space areas which would, in turn, allow the natural habitat to be preserved and maintain the baseflow to the creek tributaries. 9. 2 In response to policies in the 3.976 Regional Official Plan and the Town's Official Plan, an "Environmental 1•mpact Analysis (EIA) " was prepared in 1981, for the Courtice Urban Area which identifies Courtice North Neighbourhood 3C as being • environmentally fragile (see Attachment 14) , The study recommended four different zones of development based on the environmental constraints of the area and the pre-existing residential designation in the official Plan: I (:urrcutlY, the farewell Creek at:ill providon 'eondit:ion:; that. art! ntti.latir�a for., cnldwater fish silt' ies; however., 1)(11:11 re-acile!: Of tilt!

Instead, the Province will set one education rate for commercial properties,one rate for industrial properties and one rate for pipelines in each upper tier and single tier municipality. In effect,there will be one rate for each business property class in each single tier and upper tier municipality which may not be the same province-wide, In keeping with its assessment reform objectives,the Government will set the rates with a view to preserving existing tax burdens. While Minister Eves advises that the Province still supports a uniform rate across the province, it is not proceeding with this at this time. Where the business property tax rate is higher than average,the Government's objective is to reduce the business tax rate provided the municipality cuts its own spending. The Government is prepared to work toward a dollar for dollar matching program. Further details about dollar for dollar matching will not be available until the Minister has had an opportunity to dialogue with municipalities on how such tax cuts could be made. A number of decisions related to municipal tax policy issues were also released which include: • Preliminary transition ratios are being provided to each municipality for the seven standard property classes. Final rates, which will take into consideration municipal restructuring,will be set in regulation. Changes between preliminary and final ratios are possible but not expected. e Provincially prescribed ranges of fairness, which are in relation to the residential rate, are set at the following levels: -- commercial and industrial properties: 0.6 to 1.1 times the residential rate -- multi-residential properties: I to 1.1 times the residential rate - pipeline properties: 0.6 to 0,7 times the residential rate • The Province is committed to paying its fair share of payments-in-lieu(PIL's)on provincial properties and will continue to pay on assessed value times the municipal tax rate. Provincial PiL's could increase where the recovery of the Business Occupancy Tax(BOT) raises tax rates. Also, payments-in-lieu will be shared between upper and lower tier municipalities based on upper tier tax rates. Municipalities that have already undergone upper tier wide reassessment are unaffected. The status quo remains for sharing PlUs based on education tax rates, • The Province's approach to tax farmlands pending development offers some flexibility to municipalities in the treatment of these properties, There are two trigger points for different tax rates. The first trigger i /2 HZ/09/90 Z3:31:14 EST; ASSOCIATION OF?-> 905 6Z3 0030 CLERK-Clarington Hun Page 003 FEB-09-98 MON 06: 16 PM AMO FAX NO. 4169716191 P. 02/02 Member Communication - Alert., Business Tax & information for Municipal Tax Planning is when the plan of subdivision is registered, At this juncture, the property assessment will change from being based on farm use to zoned use and municipalities will have the flexibility to use a tax rate of 25 to 75 per cent of the residential rate, However for 1998, they must use a rate between 25% and 35% adjusting the rate up or down by as much as 10%per year up to the 75%maximum. The second trigger is the issuing of the building permit which allows a tax rate from 25%to 100%, Education property tax treatment of these lands will parallel the municipal approach. _ • To address concerns around gross leases and the inability of landlords to recover increased operating costs from tenants(e.g. as a result of BOT elimination),leglslation will be passed requiring municipalities to pass by-laws specifying a portion of tax that may be passed on to tenants, subject to a legislated maximum. While the rationale for municipal involvement is that it recognizes the unique circumstances of different municipalities and gives flexibility to set the taxes at a level respecting local needs, it Is not clear whether there is a legal authority to enable municipalities to alter such leasing arrangements. • The Government intends to address concerns that tenants with gross leases will not be able to participate In the management of their gIA. With the elimination of the BOT, the basis upon which the BIA was levied,landlords cannot pass on the 131A levy which entities the tenant to participate-in the BIA. Legislation will be amended to enable ail tenants to participate In the BIA if they so wish. Whether this would be an amendment to the Municipal Act is still under discussion by the Government. i r • Municipal user fees will be limited to cost recovery for telecommunications access to municipal rights-of- way. • The announcement confirmed that prescribed payments(instead of taxes)for international bridges, as set out in the l=air Municipal Finance Act No. 2,will be sent to municipalities and owners shortly, • To be consistent with the Fair Municipal Finance Act No.2,which applies a municipal tax rate to each of nine geographical areas for railways and rights-of-way properties,the Province will set education taxes in the same way. Final rates are to be prescribed shortly. I Action: AMO believes that the Government should remove the business property tax from the property tax base, In doing so, it can equalize the cost across the province and the Government can deal directly with those businesses that would be paying a higher rate, This approach brings the Government closer to Its goal of removing education financing from property taxes and still provides the ability to deal with unique impacts. Further, this approach will not pit parts of Ontario against one another and possibly pit residential uses against commercial and industrial uses within a municipality. It would also not disadvantage municipalities who are already dealing with significant financial burdens as a result of the Government's transfer of services and costs to the municipal property taxpayer. The information released for municipal tax planning purposes brings municipalities closer to having the information upon which to make their tax policy decisions but the picture is not yet complete. Final transition ratios and tax rates for such things as rights-of-way and}prescribed payments for intemational bridges are still unavailable. As well, many of the details about future legislation and amendments to legislation are still under discussion by the Government. AMO staff will continue to press for timely release of the transition ratios and tax rates and further details on the legislative agenda for implementing these decisions.

Present Were: R.B. Rickard S. DeJong C. Abraham D. Schmiegelow K. Pasquet C. Trim J. Mutton G. Worsley(secretary) 1. COUNCIL PRESENTATION I D. Schmiegelow reported on presentation to Town Council at their meeting on January 19, 1998 at 9:30 AM. The presentation was on the Board's plans to add a handicapped washroom and bar room to the main hall. Information was given to council on pre- liminary plans and costs for this project. The Board is asking the Town to contribute to the project in the amount of$35,000.00,but has also noted that The Board has come up with$45,000.00 for this project and some feel the Town should match this figure. R.B. Rickard and K. Pasquet also attended this meeting with Town Council. J. Mutton reported The Board's request has been referred to the normal budget process. 2. MINUTES i C. Trim asked that councillors be struck from the November minutes as absent, as neither him nor J. Mutton had been assigned to this Board at that time. K_ Pasquet noted the date of October 24, 1998 had been selected for the 75th anniversary celebration. Item 3 clarified as the main hall would be open on weekends during the ceiling repairs. Motion by S. DeJong, seconded by K. Pasquet THAT the November 1998 minutes be adopted as presented with the above three(3) amendments. "CARRIED" 3. OLD BUSINESS i i J. Mutton reported on item number 7 of the November minutes regarding The Board's request that the Town clerk and treasurer attend one of our meetings. At this time it is not financially feasible to have the clerk or treasurer attend one of our meetings. J. Mutton and C. Trim will liason with them for the Board. J. Mutton reported there is $32,607.16 in the Montague Fund, the last enquiry was 1983. Board members disagreed with enquiry information noting we have used the fund a number of times over the last 5 years. Secretary asked if Board could have a regular print out on this fund as presented by J. Mutton today. It was agreed that J. Mutton would bring an update on the Montague Fund every 6 months to the Board meeting. C. Abraham reported on progress with the sign for outside. Attached are some quotes, she felt the quote from Forsey's(obtained in the past) of$1500.00 was not out of line. D. Schmiegelow suggested 2 matching signs for both sides of the building. C. Abraham will investigate further to obtain quotes on woodwork around signs. G. Worsley reported that B. Couch cleaned some garbage out of the pipes from eavestrough but F. Horvath will see that a thorough cleaning of the eavestroughs is done. G. Worsley reported on Board of Trade-J. Cooke is looking into charging only$25.00 to join, at this time there is no auxillary. She will forward information on new fees. R.B. Rickard asked councillors what other Halls are doing? C. Trim noted they have not heard yet, the first meeting of The Board of Trade is scheduled for this Wednesday and they should know more then. It was agreed that it would be beneficial to be on the mailing list of this group. I K. Pasquet reported no new information on advertising in the paper. G. Worsley is waiting for J. Cooke to get back to her with cost and full page ad in the Community Guide. D. Schmiegelow brought councillors up to date on our previous discussion to look into advertising to increase rentals. 4. FINANCIAL J. Mutton asked what our payment policy was as he has noted a couple of accounts paid after 30 days. Secretary explained most rentals are paid in advance, overdue accounts are billed and phoned for follow up on payment. J. Mutton suggested charging interest on overdue accounts. Discussion followed on whether this was needed as there are not that many that go overdue. R.B. Rickard suggested J. Mutton discuss a revised payment policy with treasurer and report back to the Board. This wv.s agreed upon by all. Motion by R.B. Rickard, seconded by D. Schmiegelow i THAT financial report be accepted as presented. "CARRIED" i 5. BILLS Secretary noted bills from IGA from 1996 that she had never received from M. Couch. Letter to be sent to M. Couch to make sure bills are handed in regularly in future. Motion by K. Pasquet, seconded by D. Schmiegelow THAT the following bills be paid as presented- IGA 11.55 (5/7/96) IGA 6.98 (6/27/97) R.B. Rickard 40.00 S. DeJong 40.00 "CARRIED" 6. CORRESPONDENCE GIC update noted and to be filed. I 7. NEW BUSINESS jG. Worsley suggested purchasing entrance mats from Swish as they are on sale and cheaper than the cost of renting. Discussion followed as to whether B. Couch would be able to keep them clean. Motion by S. DeJong, seconded by D. Schmiegelow THAT one rug be purchased until we see if the cleaning of it could be handled by B.Couch. "CARRIED" It was agreed the rug would be put in the East Wing. K. Pasquet will report back to the Board on feasability of purchasing more. G. Worsley let Board know she would be shopping for more dishes this week. RB. Rickard suggested a Board member help with this task. C. Trim questioned 1998 budget for maintenancetrepair. Why did we budget 3000 for 1997 and only spend 372? R.B. Rickard explained maintenance was planned but not done because ceiling repairs have not been done yet. C. Trim questioned 1997 Capital Grant of 7000 not used. This money is with F. Horvathfor work to be done in the main hall,but until the ceiling is repaired it cannot go forward C. Trim wondered if we would lose these dollars because they were not spent Board has not been told we would. i i J. Mutton commented on rental rates-are we charging to much? Hall is not always booked on weekends, i.e. summer rentals are down. He suggested reduced rates to get the rentals back up. R.B. Rickard gave some history on the Hall. Grants from Town used to be much higher$25,000.00 to $30,000.00. When the grants were reduced the rates had to go up to cover the cost of building expenses. He felt the it was not part of the duties of the Board to fundraise. Maintenance keeps going up and income going down. According to the Massey Will it is the responsibility of the Town to maintain hall. Discussion followed on rental rates and high maintneance of this building. It was felt their was more competition now, i.e. Garnet Rickard Complex, Courtice Complex and Marina. C. Trim noted there is a Tourism and Recreation pamphlet for Clarington, he will speak with J. Cooke about advertising in it. A lenghthy discussion followed on possible ways to draw attention to this hall. Secretary does survey on other halls in this area on rental rates each rates and Board feels we are in line with our rates. As discussed earlier Board is investigating advertising in newspaper and community guide. Bridal shows were also suggested. C. Trim and J. Mutton will speak with J. Cooke and F. Horvath to see was is available through the Town for advertising. Motion by S. DeJong, seconded by K. Pasquet I THAT we should vote on position of chairperson. "CARRIED" S. DeJong nominated R.B. Rickard, seconded by J. Mutton K. Pasquet enquired as to whether councillors have a vote on this Board. J. Mutton responded that according to the clerk's department councillors do have a vote on this particular board. He further noted that there are no conflict of interests on this Board, i.e. Lions members serving on Board can vote on Lions issues, Family Connection members serving on Board may vote on Family Connection issues. D. Schmiegelow asked when our chair elections are usually held. They should be the first meeting following appointments and elections,but this is the first meeting that a full Board has been present in almost a year. He also surveyed remaining Board members as to their interest in running for chair. No other members were interested in this position. He also spoke for the Board in complimenting and thanking C.

In addition, municipalities are.going to be billed for$2,4 billion in costs for services which they will have no direct authority to manage, and over whioh they can exercise little or no cost control. Clearly, unless the Province takes action to remedy the current situation, Ontario residents and businesses are going to experience property tax increases." I At today's meeting, the Association demanded that the Province make sufficient additional funds available to ensure that property tax payers are not negatively impacted by the Government's downloading transfer. "Should the funds not be forthcoming, municipalities will have no recourse but to pass any financial burden resulting from Who Does What onto property tax payers," Power says, The Province is expecting municipalities to find $565 million in savings. This is unrealistic and unattainable given that the most expensive services such as social housing and ambulance service continued to be managed by the Province„These provincially-mandated costs form a significant portion of the total municipal budget. It is clear to the Association and its membership that the Government's public policy agenda is driven by economics and not necessarily by what makes sense for the taxpayer. The Association of Municipalities of Ontario (AMO) is a non-profit organization with member municipalities representing 95 per cent of Ontario's population. The mandate of AMO is to promote, support and enhance strong and effective municipal government in Ontario. _ 30 - For more information, contact: Dan Remington Communications Coordinator, AMO (416) 971-9856 ext 312 02/06/90 Z3:3Z:3Z EST; ASSOCIATION OF?-> 905 623 0030 CLERK-Clarington Hun Page 003 FEB-06-98 FRI 04:03 PM Ah10 FAX N0, 4169716191 P. 02/03 I I t.

I The Facts: - This draft legislation follows from broad consultations on the Government's discussion paper released in early Winter of 1997. The draft legislation document entitled, A Proposed New Municipal Act; Draft Legislation, Including Explanatory Notes, is more than 280 pages and Includes 19 parts addressing such substantive issues as municipal powers, business licensing, municipal restructuring, Council governance, practices and procedures, financial administration, municipal taxation and tax collection, debt and investment, municipal liability, enforcement, regulations and transition provisions, • According to the Province,the key change from the current Act is enhanced municipal flexibility. The document states, "Although municipalities would continue to have to rely on provincial legislation for authority to operate, the legislation, except for financial matters, would be less prescriptive and detailed'. This proposed enhanced flexibility would be provided through three instruments: - Natural Person - municipalities would have the power of a natural person to conduct their day-today business without the need for specific legislative authority; - Governmental Powers - municipalities need-certain governmental powers that are not available to a natural person for levying taxes, for regulating and prohibiting and enforcing matters, and establishing licenses etc.; -- Spheres of Jurisdiction - municipalities would be given general powers that would authorize them to exercise their governmental and natural person powers in 13 broad subject areas or spheres of jurisdiction, among them the health,safety, protection and well-being of people, and the protection of property, public utilities, waste management, transportation, economic development, drainage and flood control and the natural environment. /2 02/11/98 23:10:09 EST; ASSOCIATI0H OF?-> 905 623 0830 CLERK-Clarington Hun Page 003 FEB-11-98 WED 06:30 PM AMO FAX NO, 4169716191 P. 02/03 Member Communication: Alert Release of Draft New Municipal Act Notwithstanding the above Instruments, eight general limits to municipal powers are outlined, For example, municipalities would not be able to regulate or prohibit privately-owned systems under public utilities, waste management and transportation systems other than highways spheres of jurisdiction. The Impact on Related Pieces of Legislation I In addition to replacing the current Municipal Act, more than 30 other statutes would be incorporated into the new proposed Act, These include the Regional Municipalities Act, the 12 regional Acts and the Acts for certain counties, Other major statutes to be repealed include the Municipal Safes Tax Act and the Municipal Boundary Negotiations Act, The Public Transportation and Highway lmprovementAct,administered by the Ministry of Transportation,would be repealed and replaced by the highway provisions of the new Municipal Act, The Government will introduce a Bill for first reading some time in the Spring 1998 session of the Legislative Assembly. I Action Required: j HMO's Municipal Act Task Force will start to review the draft legislation. In commenting on the Ministry's initial 1997 consultation paper,the Association called upon the Government to provide real, substantive legislative and regulatory reform as set out In HMO's guiding principles and recommendations In Its formal response, (Copies of this report were distributed widely to Ontario municipalities last May), AMO will evaluate the draft legislation to determine how it meets its established criteria of flexibility and municipal empowerment versus the existing policy framework where prescriptive pieces of legislation direct municipalities to carry out specified administrative and financial tasks. AMO will analyze the proposed legislative limitations on municipal authority ensuring they are minimal and of a clear and overriding Provincial interest. From AMO's standpoint, it is imperative that the draft legislation successfully meet the above criteria, so that after nearly 150 years since the introduction of the 'Baldwin Act', municipalities finally achieve true decision-making authority and autonomy. Without this type of authority, municipalities will be further disadvantaged in trying to meet the challenges presented by the WDW reforms, As one of the final pieces in the Province's municipal reform agenda, this represents a critical legislative tool that may facilitate the management of local affairs and enable municipalities to respond progressively to the emerging challenges. AMO will keep the membership informed on issues that may arlse from the review of the draft legislation and the recommendations that the Association will take to the Minister.

The Facts: 9 The Province yesterday released the criteria and application forms for the Municipal Restructuring($50 million) and the Special Circumstances Funds($77 million). This information is being sent to all municipalities. • The Municipal Restructuring Fund, managed by the Regional Operations Branch of the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing, is designed for municipalities that have restructured under the provislons of BN 26, the Savings and Restructuring Act. 9 The Special Circumstances Fund, administered by the Management Board of Cabinet, is primarily available to small rural and northern municipalities that need assistance to deal with extraordinary costs associated with program transfers, the inability to achieve savings, a significant drop in their 1998 assessment and the rationalization of program delivery. These criteria are further described on the application itself. i Action: Both applications require municipalities to prepare supporting documentation. Of particular note is the requirement to include 1997 Budgets when applying for the Special Circumstances Fund. All municipalities should note that applications for these funds must be submitted to the specified Ministry no later than March 6, 1998. It is important for AMO to monitor how the funds are being dispersed and whether or not the program funding of $50 million and $77 million adequately meets municipal needs. AMO is asking municipalities that request financial support through these two funds,to forward information on their requests and responses from the Province. i i This information is available through AMO's MUNICOM network at www.municom.com.

John informed us that they had requests from other leagues to use our diamonds for ball this summer. They turned them down since there is not enough time many nights for games and practices for Solina. They have also decided to turn over the responsibility of getting liquor permits to anyone wishing to use our park for tournaments. John also gave out a list of prices for the park rental. A rental agreement is being drawn up. A damage deposit will also be taken, and if there are any problems, it will not be refunded. If they decide to let the two GM groups in again, they will have to pay for a security guard to police the area. Members of the park committee this year are: John McAlpine, Pete Keuning, Don Dair, Sherry Baker and Cheryl Lupton. Recreation The DYSL soccer fees have been increased this year by $2.00. j This will be considered when they set the rates .for this season. Registration this year will be on Saturday March 7 from 10 - 12. The date for the second night is yet to be confirmed. Members for this year are Herb Tink, Jeff Knox, Rob Johanson, j Steve Thompson and Debbie Hartford. Hall Their agenda for this year is: carpet cleaning in the lower hall, pump out the septic tank, and refinish the floor upstairs. Priority this year will be given to painting the upstairs walls and ceiling, doors and window casings. They will also get estimates on grading and bring in gravel to level the parking lot in early spring. The Hall committee has hired a new custodian. Cathy Carter began working on February 1. Her phone number is 263-8702. A job description was prepared by Heather, and Vi and Karen met with Cathy to go over her duties.

The intent of this new publication is to provide current information about Ontario Hydro's Nuclear Waste Management Program,policies,planning and research initiatives,and our commitment to safely manage nuclear waste. To date, Ontario Hydro's reactors have produced approximately 1.1 million used nuclear fuel bundles, together with lesser amounts of low-and intermediate-level waste. Ontario Hydro has been safely managing this waste for the past 25 years. It is estimated that over their service lifetimes,Hydro's I nuclear generating stations will produce 70,000 tonnes of nuclear fuel waste. The Canadian program for used fuel management is nearing an important milestone. The federal hearings on the safety and acceptability of geological disposal of used nuclear fuel was completed in March 1997,and a report is expected in early 1998. Subject to government direction,Hydro's strategy for the long-term management of used nuclear fuel is to work with the other Canadian nuclear utilities, Hydro Quebec, and New Brunswick Power in the next steps towards implementing used fuel disposal. Throuah this newsletter and other venues,we will provide regular updates on the status of Ontario Hydro's Nuclear Waste Management Program. . Sincerely, K.E.

It seems we are always talking about change — how the Ontario Government is changing the rules in provincial-municipal relations, how we as small yrban municipalities must change to keep up with technology and how the population we serve is changing. Our conference will look at these changes and will also look ahead to future population changes which will affect municipalities. Dr. Foot will speak.about how our aging population will require different kinds of services in the future and what kind of changes are in. store for service delivery. But we're also here to have a lot of fun! Kick back on Friday night and enjoy "Sing '98". The conference also features well-known speaker Ross Carlin and_his inspiring message that "a little guy can make a.difference."

TIN February 17, 1998. For Immediate Release Lindsay Comes Out in Support of Conservation After considering a motion to withhold support from Kawartha Conservation, Lindsay Council, at its February 16th meeting, voted to support the 1998 budget of Kawartha Conservation . Only Councillor Pat Dunn withheld his support. Prior to the motion of support, Councillor Dunn had moved that the Town of Lindsay not support Kawartha Conservation's budget. This motion was defeated by a vote of seven to one paving the way for the motion of support made i by Reeve Tom Crowe. "There is no question that Lindsay Council did the right thing in supporting Kawartha Conservation.", said Mr. Dave Murray, a member of the Executive Committee of Kawartha J Conservation from penelon Township. Murray added, "Our natural environment is very important to all of us and any attempt to lessen commitment to conservation is folly. It is gratifying to see that the majority of Councillors from Lindsay are supportive." The Town of Lindsay's 1998 contribution to conservation is$68,246.33. This is$919.00 less than Lindsay contributed in 1997. The overall 1998 budget of Kawartha Conservation is j proposed at $338,600 an increase of$11,200 from 1997. The budget increase is made possible because Kawartha Conservation has found new revenue sources through partnerships such as the Partners in Conservation program with Coldwell Banker Kent Place Realty. Conservation manager Ian Macnab says, "Kawartha Conservation has not increased municipal funding since 1995 and has a business plan in place which calls for no increase in municipal funding through 2001." A vote on the 1998 budget will take place at the February 25th meeting of the Kawartha Conservation Board of Directors. Solid municipal support is I anticipated. i -30� For more information, please contact: !

I am writing to you today to alert you to discussions surrounding the creation of NAFTA Super Highway corridors to facilitate trucking operations. The NAFTA corridors will almost certainly embrace upgrades to the 400 highway system through Southern Ontario with entry through Windsor-Detroit, Sarnia-Port Huron, or Buffalo-Niagara Falls. Those promoting these routes are soliciting the support of municipalities throughout the 401 corridor and, while the potential economic impacts cannot, nor should not be ignored, there is good reason for caution. Municipal leaders in your area should be aware certain interests may be counting on the NAFTA Corridor concept to overcome the current limits on the length and weight of large trucks. The trucking industry has long campaigned for the widespread employment of multi-trailer rigs which can be as long as a ten story building is high. These longer combination vehicles (LCV's), are currently prohibited from travelling Ontario roads. The Ministry of Transportation has refused them for good reason. They are prone to excessive sway, roll-over and jack knife. Proponents of these giant vehicles insist they can be restricted to only the best and safest super highways. In truth, in those relatively few jurisdictions that now allow them, LCV's have found their way onto secondary roads. The plain fact is, pick-up and delivery p oints are not necessarily located close to highway corridors such as the 401. expected to You also need to reflect on the fact NAFTA harmonization can be ex p ultimately open our border to truckers who may not have the experience and means which Canadians have traditionally assumed would ensure their road safety. It must also be recognized that an increased volume of trucks will lead to more environmental pollution as well as more road damage and further safety risks. I Promoters of the NAFTA corridors make a great deal of the economic impacts to be enjoyed. What they have not considered are the costs to municipalities of increased truck traffic. The Ontario government has transferred responsibility for 5, 900 kilometres of secondary highway to municipalities. Repairs, supervision, upgrades j and maintenance fall directly on the municipalities' ability to pay. Whatever - benefits may flow from a super highway corridor through your area may be eroded by increased road and highway maintenance costs. You can be sure the trucking industry and its representatives will not be first in line to share these costs. The importance of the Southern Ontario highway transportation corridor is unquestioned. But, care needs to be taken to ensure future improvement to, and exploitation of, this network takes full account of the interests and safety of all concerned. The Ontario government should not find itself in the position of having to reduce its safety or environmental standards to meet the demands of a trucking industry that would prefer an unfettered or minimally regulated truck transportation environment. You may have good reason to believe that Canadians look favourably on programs to draw benefit from the North American Free Trade Agreement. Attitudinal polling, however, clearly demonstrates public opposition to sharing highways with ever-larger trucks and overworked truck drivers. Many of these same people worry about the environmental and tax implications of road policies favouring more and bigger trucks. CRASH invites you to ensure the presumed benefits of NAFTA Super Highways are carefully, and publicly, weighed against potential economic, environmental and human costs. A lot will be at stake. I I have enclosed material on CRASH for your information. I hope you will take the l time to read it and consider the impacts for you, your family and your constituents. Should you have any comments or if you would like to know more, please feel free to contact me at the number below.

This influence has not been balanced by one united voice specifically and exclusively dedicated to advocacy of the public interest on truck safety and responsibility. While some existing public entities do address certain issues as part of broader mandates, public concerns about truck safety have not been adequately defended or advanced. For example, while Canada's stand on harmonized trucking practices under NAFTA has been crafted with the benefit of industry input, there has been little or no tabling of the public's concerns. The trucking industry is an important component of sustained economic growth, but issues surrounding safe trucking are about more than trucks -they are about people! Canadians for Responsible And Safe Highways (CRASH) is a nation-wide grass roots, non-profit association representing the Canadian public to ensure that safety, environ- mental and economic concerns are fully considered by governments when the latter establish and administer regulations pertaining to trucking operations on public highways. CRASH will pursue this mission through public education, media and advocacy programs directed at legislators and regulators. CRASH will promote actions to reduce trucking-related accidents, deaths, injuries and ensure the recovery from the trucking industry of societal costs its operators incur. The bottom line is to have the trucking industry operate in a manner which accommodates the reasonable expectations and concerns of all other parties who have helped pay for, and who wish to take advantage of, our public roads. I i Canadians for Responsible CRASHand Safe Highways CRASH FACTS The Angus Reid Group Inc., on behalf of Canadians for Responsible And Safe Highways (CRASH), conducted a total of 1, 516 interviews by telephone between September 20 and 29, 1996. The results of a survey this size are said to be accurate to within +/- 2.5%, 19 times out of 20. The margin of error will be higher within regions. (Ontario sample n = 526) KEY FINDINGS i • When Ontarians were asked, "In general,how would you rate Canada's roads and ! highways in terms of safety-do you think Canada's roads and highways are becoming more safe or less safe?", over half(557o)perceived a reduction in safety. • A large majority of Ontarians (827o) perceived that the number of tractor-trailer trucks operating on Canadian roads and highways has increased over the past 5 years. • More than four out of five Ontario respondents (837o)felt that travel on Canadian roads and highways has become more dangerous as a result of the upward trend in the number of tractor-trailer trucks. • lost Ontarians (797o) strongly opposed allowing single tractors to pull a second 48- foot trailer behind the one trailer they are currently permitted to pull. Together with the 117o of respondents who were "somewhat" opposed to this idea,90% of Ontarians overall were opposed. • Respondents were evert more solidly opposed to allowing single tractors to pull three 28-foot trailers than they were to the twin 48-foot combination trucks (961yo overall,8717o strongly, 9% somewhat). • 1\lost Ontarians (637o) would like to see governments keep the laws on truck lengths as they are now. A sizeable minority (30%) would like to see governments change the laws to require trucks to be shorter, while only 5% would like longer trucks allowed. • Ontarians agreed overwhelmingly (91%)that, "Sharing the road with longer trucks will make driving harder for motorists." In fact, 79% of those surveyed agreed "strongly" with this statement. • A large majority of Ontarians (89%) also voiced their concern that, "Today's truck drivers will have more difficulty in safely handling longer trucks." Again, strong agreement with this statement (72%) was very high. • Opinions were divided about whether or not, "longer trucks will lower freight _ transportation costs and cut prices to consumers." Half of respondents (50%) agreed with this expectation,while slightly less than half(45%)disagreed. • The majority of those surveyed (60%) disagreed that, "Allowing longer trucks will reduce the number of trucks on the road." A large minority,however, agreed (367o). • When presented with the suggestion that Canada and the U.S.standardize their maximum allowable hauling weights,almost half of the respondents(49%) would prefer to see the policies of the two countries conform to the lower American maximum of 80,000 pounds. A fair-sized minority (32%)would like policies to allow each country to keep its own weight limit,while 167o would prefer standardizing the maximum hauling weights in both countries to the present Canadian level of 130,000 pounds. i • An overwhelming majority of respondents (917o) agreed with the statement, "The heavier trucks allowed in Canada cause more road and bridge damage." • 69% of those surveyed agreed that, "The heavier trucks allowed in Canada are less i safe". • Opinions were divided about whether or not, "The heavier trucks allowed in Canada lower freight costs and cut prices to consumers." Fifty-two percent of respondents agreed with this notion, while 42% disagreed. • A strong majority(60%)disagreed that, "Allowing heavier trucks will reduce the number of trucks on the road." • \tore than three-quarters (79%) preferred that, "The government would adopt regulations requiring the trucking industry to improve its maintenance standards and practices". The remaining 207o preferred that, "The trucking industry would voluntarily ensure that its member companies improve their truck maintenance standards and practices." • Respondents were asked whether they would favour or oppose reducing the number of consecutive hours Canadian truck drivers are allowed to drive from the present level of 13 hours to the American level of 10 hours.More than four out of five (86%) favoured this reduction. A majority (69%) were strongly in favour and another 17% somewhat favoured it. I .

RECOMMENDATION.• i THAT Staff Report #4215-98 be received for information. i i i JRP/klt s:Vgwts\sr421598.doc Central Schedule H-1 of Feb. 3/98 Lake Ontario Lynde Shores Conservation Area Management Plan Development Process 1997 - 1998 Conservation BACKGROUND ON THE PROCESS - Central Lake Ontario Conservation Authority (CLOCA) is undertaking a management plan which will set the stage for the managed implementation of desired options and uses for the future of Lynde Shores Conservation Area. CLOCA's goal for the management plan is: "The Lynde Shores C.A. Management Plan will recognize the natural resources and features of the conservation area and balance those against the demand for public use." The process involves: • understanding the background conditions,current uses and conflicts; • determining a future vision and an understanding of what natural attributes can be maintained and enhanced,given the balance required with public use; • identifying a suite of strategic management options; • selecting preferred management options; • developing a management plan;and • developing an implementation strategy in concert with community partners. CONE UNITY CONSULTATION AND INVOLVEMENT PROGRAM CLOCA has initiated an inclusive community consultation and involvement program with the explicit purpose of: • obtaining the community's preferences relating to the current status of the area; • identifying local environmental knowledge to augment professional expertise of CLOCA in developing a comprehensive understanding of the background and current environmental and social conditions; • involving the community with CLOCA in developing a recommended Vision for the future of the area - "What will the Conservation Area look like?"; • providing advice on alternate management options to achieve the desired future state; • reviewing potential management options;and • participating in the development of an implementation framework,including the identification of partners COMMUNITY EVENTS AND PARTICIPATION OPPORTUNITIES CLOCA has organized a number of open houses and workshops to ensure that community residents and stakeholders (interest groups, governments, land owners, etc.) can become involved in a meaningful public involvement process. While it is understood the CLOCA Board of Directors will make the fmal decision - the advice of the community is highly valued. OPEN HOUSES CLOCA has held one open house in September 1997 to launch the project.Two more are planned for January 29 and 31, 1998 to share current background knowledge and to promote the community workshops. Workshops will then be held between Febnmry and August to ensure that the purpose of the process is met. A final open house will be held in August, 1998 to review management options with the broader community,before final decisions are made. What we do on the land is mirrored in-the water. 41. t 2. {;y Schedule H-2 of Feb. ;1 9. WORKSHOPS Four workshops are envisaged in February,March,April and May. ''Fx'` WORKSHOP#1: Will provide an opportunity for stakeholders to become oriented with the process and get up to.dateti, ! progress so far(including results of the community's preferred uses) From this starting point and using present valuesiia�` a basis,a Desired Future State can be developed by participants for consideration by CLOCA. WA _ WORKSHOP #l: Will identify existing and potential management options of Lynde Shores, and participants provide advice on evaluation methods for identifying"viable" management options. WORKSHOP#3: Can begin to discuss the advantages and disadvantages to each of the management options, and arrive at a "preferred set of management options" for further review.

As a result,the watershed itself constitutes the study area,and consideration of activity in the watershed and adjacent areas will be integral in the development of a Management Plan. Lynde Shores Conservation Area is located in the Town of Whitby,Regional Municipality of Durham. It is generally bounded by Hall's Road in the west,the Whitby Shores Subdivision in the east,Lake Ontario to the south and Highway 401 in the north. BaylyNictoria Street(the Baseline)crosses the north end of Lynde Creek Marsh. Two coastal marshes are located on the site: Cranberry Marsh to the west(sometimes referred to as LeVay's Marsh), and the larger marsh adjacent to the Lynde Creek which has variously been called the.Lynde Creek Marsh, Eastbourne Marsh and Storey's Marsh. A small private residential community called Eastbourne Estates is located immediately west of the creek on Lake Ontario. The remainder of the property is comprised of old agricultural fields and remnant woodlots. Goals of the Management Plan: The goal of the management plan is to recognize the natural resources/features of Lynde Shores Conservation Area and to balance their requirements against the demand for public use. Based on the results of the Questionnaire,we have drafted goals of the management plan. Workshop participants will be asked to finalize/modify these goals and identify study objectives. Components of the plan include the following goals: .Natural Heritage: • Maintain and enhance the ecological integrity of Cranberry Marsh and Lynde Creek Marsh. • Restore an appropriate upland and valley corridors to compliment the marsh ecosystems. Recreation: • Balance recreational,educational and environmental objectives. • Evaluate the compatibility of human vs natural heritage uses,and recommend mitigation. Community: • Identify and encourage opportunities for public and private land and water stewardship in the study area,including partnerships with community groups,other agencies and industrial or commercial interests. --------------------------------------- ----------------------------- ---------- K- - WORKSHOP REGISTRATION i Please register me for the workshops: I am unable to attend,but would like to receive information from the workshops: Ll NAME: TELEPHONE: ADDRESS: E-MAIL: BUSINESS CARD ATTACHED s lsindn%workshop.doc Council Communications for Direction February 23 , 1998 Number Suggested Disposition D - 1 THAT the correspondence dated November 24, 1997 from Sam Citrigno regarding concerns with respect to the Coffee Time restaurant located adjacent to his home, be received; i THAT, in view of the fact that the property owner has applied for a site plan amendment, the correspondence be referred to the Director of Planning and Development to be reviewed in conjunction with the subject file; and THAT Sam Citrigno be advised of Council' s decision.

I have been living in Newcastle for approximately 8-9 years now and have been very happy and comfortable with my home and surroundings. I am a hard-working tax payer who has been employed with CN Rail for 20 years. My concern is that there is a Coffee Time restaurant to the south of my home. The back of the building is approximately 11 feet from my back yard. This is no problem. There is a 5 foot fence and I have tall hedges that give my family and Y the privacy we need, but now I have learned that the owner or manager of Coffee Time has applied to Public Works to put a drive- 1 through in the area between my property and his building. As I am in the process of writing this letter, I have been told by Bob Russell, Len Creamer, and Gary Hanewich, that it has not been approved. Also, I have learned that some dishonest business people go ahead regardless of permission or approval, knowing that when it goes to council, coucil feels sorry for the fact that they have spent money and done the work, and give them approval. I am watching this building and have found that some preparatory work has been done outside his building. Nothing substantial enough to warrant a stop work order. I don't think the Building Inspector has looked inside to see what he has done to the inside of his building. I have been informed by his own employees that he has every intention of going through with this, with or without City Hall's blessing. I am told there are numerous problems with the application- distance between his building and my house, turning radius, etc. My biggest concerns are the constant noise of vehicles driving that close to my house and the speaker system. Also, vehicles may sit idle waiting for the next car to be served, causing fumes from vehicles to bother my family and 1. This could be a health factor. Also, the value of my home I'm sure will depreciate. Would you move into a home with a drive-through in your back yard? I spoke to the Manager who's name is Frank and he says "So what. What's the problem? This is Canada. You can do anything you want." This man lives in Richmond Hill or Vaughn, north of Toronto. Maybe this is th-. mentality of city folk, but we live in a small, peaceful community and like to think that we don't have to adopt the dog eat dog, look after myself, the hell with you, attitude that this person brings to Newcastle. I agree that everyone wants to make a good or better living, but not at another's expense and heartache. He employs 4 or 5 people and appears to be doing well. This drive through, if i i 2 it goes through, will force me to move, if I can find a buyer. It's a modest home with a swimming pool and we spend most of our time in the summer in our back yard. i The bottom line is that I'm the one who lives there, not you, but if you could try to imagine being in my situation, I think you may agree that it would not be a positive thing if this man is allowed to do what he wants to do. I sincerely hope you, Diane, as mayor of Clarington, can look into this matter, and hope you can put a stop to it. I will look foward to hearing from you.

We know we are richer for the presence and participation of volunteers. The Government of Ontario is taking a leading role in saying thank you to volunteers by expanding its existing recognition programs and creating a new program to honour young people who volunteer. In order to convey the deep appreciation we all share for volunteers and their contribution to our communities, it is my pleasure to invite you to participate in three volunteer recognition programs: The Ontario Medal for Young Volunteers; The Outstanding Achievement Award for Voluntarism in Ontario; and The Ontario Volunteer Service Awards. These programs provide you with the opportunity to nominate volunteers, including individuals,youth, groups and businesses,for their contributions to the province.Information sheets and nomination forms are enclosed to provide you with details about each program's nomination procedures,criteria surrounding each award,the adjudication processes,and deadlines for submitting nominations. Recognition is an integral part of voluntarism. Volunteers do not expect to receive pay,but they do need to know their efforts are valued. Saying"thanks"in a tangible way is an effective way to reinforce volunteer commitment, inspire others and celebrate a sense of well-being in our communities. In response to the findings and recommendations of the Advisory Board Report on the Voluntary Sector, released in February, 1997,the Government of Ontario is undertaking various initiatives to strengthen the volunteer sector including: an annual provincial conference for volunteers; Community Linkages Information Technology projects; a public education/awareness campaign; and these volunteer recognition programs. Ontario benefits from the experience,accomplishments and dedication of volunteers.

LlC 3A6 Your Honour Mayor Ham e: The reason for this letter Is to bring you and your Council up to date on some of the problems surrounding the Kendal Pheasant Hunt. These problems came to light at our Zone's Annual Meeting on January 11, 1998. Kendal pheasant hunters were invited to the meeting, they expressed concerns as to how the hunt was being conducted last year, in particular unacceptable cost Increases towards the end of the hunt, secrecy as to the number of pheasant being released per hunter and were pheasants being released for hunters coming late? These same pheasant hunters want the O.F.A.H. involved with the hunt. They stated that we were instrumental in solving landowner concerns two years ago and helped with MNR staff to clear and mark buffer zones, helped with signage and drawing up present day hunting regulations. The Ontario Federation of Anglers & Hunters, through Zone W supplied the Hunt Supervisors Trailer, some of the hunt forms, some signage and help out from time to time as requested. The hunt is advertised In our magazine and club tabloid Call of the Loon" and Also through local sports writers. The Zone was successful in negotiating our first Hunting agreement with MNR ( Glen Price ) and The Clarlington Game Commission for 1997 similar to our Darlington Hunting agreements. I was also present at the Clarlington Game Commission meeting when the cost of the hunt was raised in order to be revenue positive for 1997. ........2...... ONTARIO FEDERATION OF ANGLERS & HUNTERS i I i i Glen Price, District Manager would like to see a member of Zone 'E' executive on the. .Clarlington Game Commission in order to see that hunter concerns are addressed, also to increase hunter participation so costs can be kept down, to tender for the supply of pheasants. Finally, to try to get hunt Supervisors from Sir Sandford Fleming College for a minimum cost as at Darlington, these students would run the day to day hunt. I have also proposed an Advisory Committee to come up with ideas on how to improve the quality of the hunt and hunter satisfaction. In closing both MNR and the OFAH wishes to have a member of Zone 'E's executive on the Clarlington Game Commission. We understand that you must live in Clarlington to be on the Commission. Under these circumstances we hope your Council will make the required changes for a better operated hunt. Our choice j would be Norm Jung, Chair of Zone 'E'. He lives in Oshawa. I We thank you for taking time from you busy agenda to consider this request. i Yours in Co servation, i i cc: Glen Price Clarlington Game Commission Rick Morgan, VIP OFAH Zone 'E' Executive � f f i December 23, 1997 4 c 0 b J,� ,v ( i t l " 8 1-�s poN D -7J-,A 2-, 1 4 9 8 Mr. Rick Thompson Director Zone E Re: Kendal Hunt Dear Sir: I have been made aware of your January 11,1997 meeting and wish to pass on my comments re the above Hunt which you endorse. i The Hunt was sold as per the attached bulletin from the Clarington Game Commission. The price was raised after the contract was started. This was unacceptable to me and seems unethical, if not illegal. There was no offer of a partial refund on the licence fee if a participant didn't agree to the new terms. The increase to ten dollars was to correct the previous deficit (see bulletin). The fact that 300 licences were not sold was blamed on the OFAH and MNR not allowing advertising for fear of anti-hunter groups appearing. There were initially some comments made, by the hunters, re the secrecy of the number of birds released, this was later stated to be 1 1/2 birds per hunter. Personally I did not understand the secrecy surrounding the Game Commission's decisions. I am sure you are aware you compete with commercial game farms in the area. These people run a good operation with the rules spelled out up front and no misunderstanding with their customers. i The Kendal Hunt was enjoyable and I attempted to Hunt twice a week. If the matter of price and secrecy can be resolved, I would support it again. Yours truly, Russell J White I i O.EA.H. ZONE E Rick Thompson January 12, 1998 O.F.A.H. Zone "E" Director i Russell White I i Dear Russell; i Thank you for your letter of December 23, 1997 regarding the pheasant hunt at Kendal. Your concerns were well represented at our j annual meeting in Peterborough on January 11, 1998. The O.F.A.H. was asked to get involved with this hunt in 1996 to help iron out some of the problems and complaints that the M.N.R. had received regarding this hunt. The price increase during the 1997 hunt was done as an emergency measure as the hunt was loosing to much money due to poor licence sales. It was felt at the time that we either close the hunt or raise the price. We knew that if the hunt was closed early it would probably NEVER reopen again. As for the secrecy surrounding the number of birds that were released, this should not have happened. The O.F.A.H. Zone "E" Chairman, Norm Jung, made this perfectly clear at the meeting. We are currently looking to set up an advisory committee to assist with running the hunt and will be looking for volunteers to sit on this committee. We would appreciate your involvement on this committee. The O.F.A.H. is trying to get into a position that would allow us more control over the hunt. We hope that the problems you have made us aware of will not happen again. On behalf of the O.F.A.H. and Zone "'Ell executive I apologize for the problems you encountered this year and thank you for bringing them to our attention. Yours In Conservation Rick Thompson c.c.

Our members represent the complete cross-section of small-and medium-sized businesses in the community, covering all industry sectors. Extensive CFIB member surveys revealed the huge problems they faced under the old property tax regime. Province-wide, the effective tax rate on our members' business properties was more than two-times higher than average residential tax rates. Assessment distortions,higher legislated tax rates and the business occupancy tax combined to create a huge disincentive to business development and job creation. I During the past three years, CFIB has pushed hard for substantive measures that would begin to rebalance the property tax system. But rather than develop a clear province-wide plan to restore health to the property tax system, the Ontario government has left most of the key decisions in the hands of municipal governments. CFIB,therefore, asks for your help in ensuring that local businesses begin in 1998 to get well-deserved and necessary tax relief. Based on our experience with variable mill rates in other parts of Canada, we worry that you and your municipal colleagues will be ternpted to load more taxes on the business sector. In addition, we are concerned that municipalities will unfairly recoup the business occupancy tax revenue disproportionately from small firms. Finally, delays in making the new property assessments public are also adding to the uncertainty all property owners face. With uncertainty and high taxes paralyzing economic growth, the result is damaging to everyone in the community.

CFIB sees this information as the starting point for meaningful reform. We ask that you and your colleagues on Council reduce your ratio for the purposes of 1998 taxes and continue with subsequent reductions in the years ahead. With moderate, but consistent progress toward a more balanced property tax system in this municipality, you will be demonstrating your commitment to the local business sector and the citizens who wish to work in the community. CFIB is also deeply concerned about potential changes to the Municipal Act that would give municipalities wide latitude to levy additional user charges and licensing fees, creating a significant new form of taxation. Such powers, if granted, must be used responsibly, such that the number and size of levies for necessary local services is kept to a minimum. Over the few next months we plan to closely monitor property tax reform outcomes. CFlB members are uneasy about their firms' prospects, so we intend to keep them fully informed of any developments at the provincial and local levels. Out of respect to Ontario's hard-working business owners, and in the interest of promoting growth and job creation CFIB asks that you do everything p g �' J � y in your power to reduce their property tax burden. Please start by addressing this correspondence at Council. i Yours sincerely, I i Catherine Swift President and CEO � � copy: Hon. Michael Harris, Premier of Ontario jF.- ~ - Hon.

We understand that repairs to the park are being considered, among others , on this year' s budget. We wish to urge you to priorize this project and complete it this year. Our 500 students are very limited in space for Physical Education . classes as well as recess access due to the condition of the park as it remains unusable for the majority of the school year. While the park is unusable , the students are forced to play on a relatively small area of concrete, formerly the school parking lot. This is crowded and unsafe for smaller children. If there is any further information you need in order to make your decision, please do not hesitate to call either of us or the school directly. Thank you for your consideration of this request.

Across Canada schools,bookstores and libraries will promote displays of censored materials in an attempt to increase public awareness of censorship and its effect on a democratic society. At the Clarington Public Library,we will host displays of materials in our collection which have been banned,challenged or removed from schools,libraries and bookstores. This year Freedom to Read week is the week of February 22 to March 1,1998. I In support of this event,we ask that the Clarington Municipal Council reaffirm the following declaration: i Freedom to Read Whereas the right to pursue the truth through free inquiry is essential to democratic decision-making;and whereas the freedom to read is the essence of free inquiry;and whereas the freedom to read is under assault form left and right in our society-, therefore be it resolved that the Municipality of Clarington Council recognises,reaffirms and defends the right of the citizens of the community individually to decide what he or she will or will not read(the freedom to read); and further in support of this resolution,this council on behalf of the citizens of Clarington,proclaims this municipality henceforth a Freedom to Read Zone in which the freedom to read is inviolable. I i i All persons in Canada have the fundamental right,,under the Bill of Rights and the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms,to have access to all expressions of knowledge,creativity and intellectual activity, and to express their thoughts publicly. (Intellectual Freedom Position Statement,Canadian Library Association). Thank you for joining us in our efforts to inform the public of the issue of censorship during Freedom to Read Week in 1998.

Orono United Church Session discussed your response and wished to point out that although the document we sent to Council did address the issue of privatization of the LCBO;the reason we sent the document to Council is because Council has the power to prohibit the opening of LCBO stores on Sundays. This point was made in our covering letter. We are disappointed that Council has not addressed that aspect of our submission and would urge them to do so now. Sincerely 'L n Rev.

We would like permission to do this project again covering the streets that did not get done last time. Our date for this project is Saturday 25 April 1998. As before, our District will provide the supplies needed as well as handing out informational pamphlets to all the houses in the project area about the"Yellow Fish Road" project. We would like it if the town . could help us by supplying some safety vests and traffic cones. For the streets that we plan to do please see the attached map highlighting the area we plan to do. It is hoped that there will be over 100 girls and leaders participating in this worth while project for our community. This will also be a wonderful bridging project for all the different aged girls in our District to work together on. If you would like to come out and observe the girls working on the day of the project I know the girls would love it. We also hope to have local media coverage for this project. We would appreciate a reply to this letter by 25 February 1998, so we can start ordering and organizing our supplies.

The application form outlines the criteria for the Special Circumstances Fund.The information required should be drawn from your budget planning and expenditure allocation process already underway.In your application,you propose the initiative, define how its impact creates budget pressures, and then prepare a business case indicating how assistance will facilitate achieving your savings targets. . We have also established a Municipal Restructuring Fund to help municipalities that have restructured under the provisions of the Savings and Restructuring Act. The fund will cover up to 75 per cent of municipal expenses related to restructuring. Restructurings resulting in a reduction in the number of municipalities,or in the annexation of unincorporated territory,will be eligible. The funding will be available for restructuring ordered before March 31, 1998. To qualify for.funding,municipalities will have to prepare a business case including a detailed breakdown of expenditures and estimated savings. I The deadline for applications for both funds is March 61 1998.It is our intention to make decisions on the allocation of the funds by March 31, 1998. I The one-time assistance available through the funds will help smooth the transition for municipalities. We recognize how much has changed on the provincial-municipal scene in the past months.We will continue to work with you to make sure that the changes being made are implemented carefully and effectively. I { -s I I Through these funds,we will ensure that change will be managed smoothly and competently,without disruption of services. As noted,the application form for the Special Circumstances Fund is attached.Please feel free to contact the coordinator(s)with any questions you may have, Municipalities eligible for the Restructuring Fund will receive their forms in the mail in the near future.

Bowmanville, Ont4ri.o r RE: The Lishman Proposal Dear Mayor & Coft: cil: Diq -D,-0 g7,03k I have noted with *terest, the recent press regarding the proposal by Bill & Paula Lishman, to establish a facility in Clarinngtan and I would like to offer my perspective. It would appear th4t the majority of public concern relates to two issues: 1. EnvirozMental sensitivity of the site & of the surrounding properties. 2. The impkt on Agriculture. With regard to the environmental issue, I believe that all reasonable efforts should be taken to demonstrate how the proposal will minimize any adverse effects on the natural environment. However, I hope that in considering this proposal, you recognize that decisions made 100 years ago to clear cut the virgin =ber, strip topsoil and remove aggregate have had a long term effect. I have visited the site and it is clear to me that it is not a "natural" site and that in many ways, "theicake cannot be unbaked". Given that aggregate operators in the past have not;been noted for their environxiiontal consciousness in closing worked out Isites, I believe that a well designed, properly engineered proposal could only improve the situation. With regard to Agriculture, anyone with any experience in agriculture would easily recognize the very limited potential of this site. Alterations to the soils, as a result,of aggregate removal, are very apparent. However, I think that in considering this-pro�osal, your perspective should be much broader than site Features aad shouldlconsider the potential impact on the rural economy. I i A healthy rural economy, now and in the future, depends on more than just coca Melds, pastures and apple trees. Urban residents want & need opportunities to got a feel for rural and resource based industries. The successes in recent years of the Great Ganaraska anal the Durham.- Countryside Adve4tures have convinced me, and many other iural business operators, that a roge of rWxed rural and resource based land uses offers the best opportunity td meet this public demand. I believe that,just 4s historical industrial nodes like water powered mills were accepted as part ogthe rural environment, other resource based industries can blend in and provige interesting insight into rural life in the 90's. Z think that it is reasonable to sp6culate that a facility like the one proposed by the Lishmans would b' a very popular stop on any countryside tour, either organized or self-g ided. I hope that my comments are of some assistance to you. I also hope that you will support the application to redesignate and rezone that ncirtion of the property which relates to the current proposal.

It will put to work a piece of land that has been idle and unused for many years as well as putting much needed tax dollars in to our area . There would also be the opportunity of jobs for people who must now travel long distances to get work. As for the environment - I know of no two people other than Paula and Bill Lishman who have shown the community just how very concerned they are to keep, preserve and im,orove our environment and natural surroundings .

I purchased my property in an agricultural zone and enjoy the feeling of being in the country. The proposed plan will put Mr Domitrovie's"commercial entrance" directly across from my living 1 room window. Commercial zoning will change Pebblestone Road from the rural community it currently is into a busy, bustling area. I don't care to look out of my window and see a big sign advertising the repair shop. Whether this is a 3 year, temporary rezoning or permanent, I want it to be known that as a tax-paying citizen, who is concerned with the value of my property and the condition of the neighborhood in which I live, this rezoning should not be passed.

Barrie As the result of changes to Section 220 of the Municipal Act , effective January 1 , 1998 , and the subsequent problem of determining exactly who are legitimate members of the Bowmanville B. I .A. , the attached Memorandum was circulated to all property owners and tenants within this designated area . To ensure that all of those affected by the changes in the legislation received a copy, it was personally de- livered to all of the businesses involved, at which time a signature was obtained. A copy of this information, in- cluding lease arrangements is enclosed. To those property owners who are not on-site business proprietors , a copy was sent by Priority Post to them, for which a signature was required. The Customer Copy is enclosed, for which the Post Office can provided the signatures . The list of prop- ; erty owners and tenants located within the Bowmanville B. I .A. was supplied by the Taxation Department of the Mu- nicipality of Clarington. As a result of no responses challenging the proposal out- line in the Memorandum being received, the Board, at its regular meeting , held on Tuesday, February 10, 1998 , passed the following motions: 1 ) THAT Council be requested to approve the current members of the Board of Management until the legislation is amended to clarify the situation, for a period not to exceed the present term of Council , and, 2) THAT the Bowmanville B.

MEMORANDUM Li C 3L1 TO: All property owners and tenants within the Bowmanville Business Improvement Area FROM: Ron Hooper, Chairman Board of Management RE: Proposed interim arrangements due to changes in the Mun- icipal Act as the result of Bill 106, Section 220, govern- ing Business Improvement Areas As you may or may not be aware, because changes in the legisla- tion may assign the former BOT (Business Occupancy Tax) re- venues to the commercial and industrial property owners , who will be assessed on the current market value of their proper- ties (which will ultimately be determined by the Province, and are not , at this time, known to the Municipality) , and in like manner , the BIA levy, it is proposed , subject to changes being announced in the prevailing legislation: 1 ) that Council approve the current members of the Board who meet one of the following criteria outlined in the changes to the Act (a member of council or an assessed property own- er or a tenant whose lease makes him/her responsible for any taxes on the property, or a nominee of the latter two) to continue to sit on the Board of Management until changes to prevailing legislation clarify this matter, but not to ex- ceed the term of the present Council , and, ` 2 ) that should a member of the current Board of Management not meet one of these criteria, that Council be requested to appoint them to the Board in the interim, and , i 3 ) that , because the current Board is proposing a zero increase in the BIA Budget for 1998 , the Budget amount approved in 1997 be the same amount submitted to Council as the Approved Budget for 1998 . As all BIA' s across the Province are struggling with the impact of the changes in this new legislation, which has not yet even been re-written in its amended form, and is , already under re- view, and will ultimately be further amended , for legislative action in 1999 , we are proposing to simply maintain the status quo for the immediate future--same Board , same Budget . If you are not supportive of these proposed arrangements , you are urged to contact me ( 1-905-623-5747) or anyone of the other Board members , within the next fifteen days , to discuss this matter further. A significant number of negative responses will necessitate that we call an all-members meeting to attempt to resolve any outstanding issues . In closing, we ask for your understanding and support during this period of confusion and frustration .

In spite of some of the current controversy over some key issues in our industry,we know from our past experience with you that you recognize the significance of our industry on the economy and hope that you will be able to break bread with us on the 24th. With this in mind, it is requested that your Municipality declare April 1998 as New Homes Month in recognition of home construction and ownership as a basic factor in our economic progress and the quality of our lives. In this regard,I am enclosing a sample Proclamation which,if approved by your council, could be brought with you on the 24th. We sincerely hope that you will be able to make our dinner meeting and,also,be in a position to declare April 1998 as"New Homes Mouth"in your Municipality. Sincerely, Jl i ITSI .N C � i N!AIL Gordon T. P rson, Executive Officer. - _..._.... i Proclamation by Municipality p ty I Whereas, the Municipality of is proud of the fine residential communities that have been built in recent years. Whereas, new housing represents improved planning and design, and progress in the use of new materials and methods of construction. The establishment of new communities, schools,places of worship, roads, shopping centers and other public facilities has been stimulated by new housing. Whereas, it is fitting that our citizens recognize what the building industry means in civic and economic progress to and what home ownership can mean both to ` the individual owner and to the total economic and social benefit of this municipality. Wherefore, I, M or o ay f do here proclaim April 1998 as New Homes Month. I call upon the citizens of to emphasize throughout this period their confidence in the i future economic and environmental well being of our community and their recognition of home construction and ownership as a basic factor in our economic progress and the quality of our lives.

Background: In 1996, in response to requests from over 700 Ontario municipalities,the Who Does What Sub-Panel on Municipal Administration was directed to make recommendations to address the increase in insurance costs that was making it increasingly difficult for municipalities to provide municipal services. In response to the sub-panel's recommendations and continued requests from the municipal sector, in 1997, the Government, through The Better Local Government Act (Bill 86), amended the Municipal Act by adding new provisions dealing with municipal liability with respect to the repair and maintenance of highways and bridges. The Municipal Act now codifies some of the existing defences available to municipalities. In particular, it provides a municipality with three defences. The first two codify the existing common law: a municipality is not liable for failing to keep a highway or a bridge in a reasonable state of repair if; 1) it did not know and could not reasonably have been expected to know about the state of repair of the highway or bridge and; 2) it took reasonable steps to prevent the default from arising. The third, a new defence, is intended to respond to the concerns raised by municipalities: a municipality is not liable for failing to keep a highway or a bridge in a reasonable state of repair if at the time the cause of action arises, minimum standards established by regulation by the Minister of Transportation applied to the highway or bridge and to the alleged default and those standards had been met (subsection 284(1.4)). With respect to the third defence, the Municipal Act does not require a municipality to formally adopt the minimum maintenance standards established by the Minister of Transportation. If a municipality does not meet these minimum maintenance standards, it will not be able to rely upon the defence offered by subsection 284(1.4). If the standards apply to a highway or bridge and to the alleged default and these are met by a municipality, the defence under subsection 284(1.4) of the Act will be available to a municipality in an action for failing to keep a highway or bridge in a reasonable state of repair. Where the cause of action differs from the one stated above, a municipality will have to rely upon other defences that may be available and which will vary depending on the circumstances of each case. /2 3 i Some issues were raised by municipalities during the first round of consultation that you may wish to have your legal counsel review. First, there is general concern about the degree to which the standards will provide the intended liability protection. A second related concern is that municipalities which have adopted standards of repair higher than " the minimum standards established under the Act and then fail to meet their self-imposed standards but meet the minimum standards, may be held liable for the higher standard. The standards, as illustrated by these concerns, are both legal and technical in nature. We strongly recommend that these be reviewed by your legal department (or counsel) and road maintenance department. The deadline for providing written comments is March 31, 1998. Please mail your reply to Mr. Tony Roldan, Municipal and Intergovernmental Policy Branch, Ministry of Transportation, 1 st Floor, West Tower, 1201 Wilson Avenue, Downsview, Ontario, M3M 1 J8. i If you require further information, please contact: I Mr. Tony Roldan, (416)235-4064 or Mr. Andrew Kibedi, (416) 235-5168 at the Ministry of Transportation.
