(A copy of the correspondence is attached to the Summary Information) respondence Summary of Correspondence - 4 - December 13, 1999 1-9 Association of Municipalities of Ontario, advising that municipal governments have been hit with several provincial announcements over the last week, while some are helpful others represent further downloading. For example, the implementation of the $50 million rent supplement for low income and special needs housing tenants will help with the overwhelming affordable housing crisis. On the other hand, the Province is: • Keeping $28 million of a $58 million risk allowance from the federal government while setting up a $30 million capital reserve fund for the devolved federal housing stock • Preventing the collection of child care fees from parents costing municipalities up to $25 million • Financially penalizing municipalities for not meeting the doubled community placement targets for Ontario Works In response to the announcements, the Association of Municipalities of Ontario is questioning the Province's commitment to a "successful municipal- provincial partnership." (Receive for Information) 1-10 Association of Municipalities of Ontario, regarding the introduction of legislation on ambulance extension. On March 23, 1999, the Province agreed to extend the land ambulance transfer date to January 1, 2001, and has incorporated this in Bill 14, More Tax Cuts for Jobs, Growth and Prosperity Act. Once proclaimed, the Act requires designated municipalities to notify the Ministry of Health and Long -Term Care and local operators at least 120 days before the date when the newly selected operator will begin to provide the service. If an existing operator does not receive notice by September 3, 2000, "...the operator may continue to provide land ambulance services in the municipality on and after January 1, 2001, subject to this Act and the regulations and such terms and conditions as may be agreed to by the municipality and the operator." In addition, Bill 14 allows the government to make regulations and develop financing formulas regarding the 50150 funding which was also announced on March 23rd. The Minister's regulatory power is also enhanced through Bill 11, Red Tape Reduction Act, 1999. At the moment, the Minister only has the authority to make operational regulations applicable to designated municipalities that deliver the service in- house. This power will be extended to municipalities that contract out ambulance services. The regulation malting authority will also allow the Minister to provide a framework for inter - municipal arbitrations and interest and late payments. Bill 11 also changes the current scheme for the licensing of ambulance operators to a periodic quality based certification system. The Minister of Health and Long Term Care will be appointing a certification authority that will be responsible for ensuring that operators meet criteria required for certification. The issuance and revocation of the certificate will depend solely on the operator's ability to meet these criteria. Summary of Correspondence -5 - December 13, 1999 As soon as Bill 11 is proclaimed, the Ministry will be working with AMO and other affected stakeholders regarding criteria, and process. (Receive for Information) I - 11 Association of Municipalities of Ontario, regarding $300 million in Provincial savings have impacts for municipalities. Savings will come from ministries' operating budgets and a wide array of programs. Municipal governments and stakeholders, including Local Housing Authorities have been faxed the announcement's Backgrounder that provides summary information and the net savings for 2000 -2001. The changes will impact municipalities positively and negatively. Based on the published numbers, municipalities inherit $49.9 million of new costs and are to see $33 million in savings. Until they determine the cost of changes for which there are no municipal numbers, a complete picture of the impact is impossible. Following is some of the information that AMO will be determining: • Does the $3 million savings related to welfare fraud and other social assistance changes benefit municipalities in the 80/20 cost share? • Are there new administrative costs to achieve the fraud target to be cost - shared and if so, what is the municipal cost? • What effect do other changes to social assistance, such as the cap on the provincial contribution to municipal non - health discretionary benefits and the STEP variable exemption have on the client and municipal budgets? • What is the cost impact of the increase in police recruit fees for Ontario Police College and the recent notification to Chiefs of Police of an increase in fees for non - recruits which moves from per diem charge of $30.00 to partial recovery of actual costs? • How have the municipal savings for social housing been calculated? • What makes up the $6 million new costs to municipalities for the MMAH's cost recovery of non - profit housing program administration? • What is the individual municipal impact of the $25 million new cost that requires municipalities to no longer include parent contributions towards their 20% share of child care fee subsidies? (Receive for Information) 1-12 Association of Municipalities of Ontario, regarding Province Introduces Further Red Tape Reduction Measures. Bill 11, the Red Tape Reduction Act, 1999 was introduced on November 4 to reduce red tape, to promote government through better management of Ministries and agencies, and to improve customer services by amending or repealing certain Acts and by enacting two new Acts that relate to municipal government. Many of the changes are simply housekeeping amendments, corrections of existing errors in legislation, or updating of terms and /or statutory references.

Opposition Heritage Critic, advising that currently, debate on Bill C -10, an act to amend the Municipal Grants Act, is underway in the House of Commons. The purpose of this act, is to provide fair and equitable administration of payments in lieu of taxes. Although it has some merit, there are a few concerns that need to be addressed. Mr. Mark has been participating in this debate and would like to bring up any specific concerns the municipality may have, relating to this piece of legislation. He has also been briefed by the Federation of Canadian Municipalities on the issue, and was surprised to find out they were not informed as to when Bill C -10 would becoming back for debate. Comments are being invited back to his Ottawa office by the end of November or following our first meeting thereafter. (Receive for Information) 1-20 Association of Municipalities of Ontario, regarding Municipal Restructuring and Other Municipal Legislation. Minister Clement introduced a Bill to effect the restructuring proposals submitted to him by the Special Advisors for the new Towns of Norfolk and Haldimand, and the new Cities of Hamilton, Ottawa and Greater Surdbury. Their understanding is that the legislation does not reflect all of the recommendations of the Special Advisors and the Transition Boards have not been established. Other parts of the Bill are: • Changes to the Municipal Election Act • A reduction to the size of Toronto Council • A retroactive repeal of Section 62 of the Public Utilities Act • The direct election of the regional chair in Halton Region as requested by the Region • A requirement for the use of French in ballots and other election materials for elections to French language school boards (Receive for Information) I - 21 Ontario Power Generation, 700 University Avenue, Toronto, M5G 1X6, releasing report cards, benchmarking the performance of its nuclear operations against industry standards, for the nine months ending October 1999.

(Receive for Information) Summary of Correspondence - 9 - December 13, 1999 1-22 Debbie Clarke, Executive Assistant, Valiant Property Management, 177 Nonquon Road, 20th Floor, Oshawa, L1G 3S2, expressing concerns regarding Veridian Connections and the process of servicing of new subdivisions as expressed in the letter of October 27, 1999, addressed to Nick Iozzo of G.M. Sernas. They feel strongly that the developer should be the one to hire an independent electrical engineer to design an electrical distribution system within a plan of subdivision. Veridian's role would be simply to comment on the design to ensure the system being proposed is adequate, but not be responsible for the design itself. Since the designing engineer has to sign off on the drawings as well as certify that the installation is correct, and is therefore responsible for any problems, they will be very careful to ensure the work is correct for the design itself. Also the developer should have the right to go to tender for the actual construction of the system with Veridian being one of the bidders, if they so choose. Just as with any other services that the developer is responsible for installing there would be a maintenance period during which the developer is responsible for any deficiencies. The changes to the method of supplying electricity to new subdivisions is very complicated. As such they are working with their consultants to see what other issues will be of concern. They have contacted both UDI and the Durham Builders' Association and understand that they too have strong concerns regarding the process proposed by Veridian as well and will be forwarding these concerns. (Receive for Information) CORRESPONDENCE FOR DIRECTION D - 1 Correspondence from Joe Bonura, 2 Audrey Court, Courtice, LIE 2133, resigning as a member of the Committee of Adjustment effective immediately. The reason for Mr. Bonura's action is that effective January 3, 2000, he will be employed by the Municipality of Clarington's Building Department. As an employee of the municipality he cannot be a member of any Committee, this would be considered a conflict of interest. (Motion to accept the letter of resignation, with regret, and thank Mr. Bonura for his dedication) Summary of Correspondence - 10 - December 13, 1999 D-2 Sgt. Scott Burns, Community Services Coordinator, Community Services L1G 4B7t, Durham Regional Police Services, 77 Centre Street North, Oshawa, regarding the implementation of a community neighbourhood watch in Mitchell's Corners. Through the implementation of Crime Prevention Programs, dedicated community volunteers work with police to help reduce crime in their communities. One such "Citizen Involved" Crime Prevention Program is Neighbourhood Watch. It is a project which employs an elegantly simple technique of "neighbours looking out for neighbours" to reduce threats of crime against potential victims. This letter is to introduce the Municipality to a group of concerned citizens who want to get involved in such a program. Through persistence, devotion and hard work, these people have made an honourable effort to form a Neighbourhood Watch within their community. They have met all criteria as set out in the Durham Regional Police Service "Neighbourhood Watch Guidelines" and have received a commitment from their fellow neighbours of at least 75% participation. The Durham Regional Police Service endorses this new organization as an official Community Neighbourhood Watch. It is recommended that they be granted permission to erect approved Neighbourhood Watch signs in their area as a crime deterrent. (Motion to grant permission for the appropriate signage to be erected) D - 3 Correspondence from Harold Mills, 37 Carruthers Drive, advising Council of how the people on Carruthers Drive feel about the town and its staff. Carruthers Drive use to be inhabited by quiet people that we never heard from. They only paid taxes and voted.

Through the implementation of Crime Prevention Programs, dedicated community volunteers work with police to help reduce crime in their communities. One such "Citizen Involved" Crime Prevention Program is Neighbourhood Watch. It is a project which employs an elegantly simple technique of "neighbours looking out for neighbours" to reduce threats of crime against potential victims. This letter is to introduce the Municipality to a group of concerned citizens who want to get involved in such a program. Through persistence, devotion and hard work,, these people have made an honourable effort to form a Neighbourhood Watch within their community. They have met all criteria as set out in the Durham Regional Police Service "Neighbourhood Watch Guidelines" and have received a commitment from their fellow neighbours of at least 75% participation. The Durham Regional Police Service endorses this new organization as an official Community Neighbourhood Watch. It is recommended that they be granted to erect approved Neighbourhood Watch signs in their area as a crime deterrent.
