All of the schools that participated in 2012 have already received their permanent plaques.

John O’Toole, MPP, Durham, addressed Council to present his annual update from Queen’s Park. Mr. O’Toole advised that the House has recessed for the summer; however, there are Committees that will continue to meet to advance various initiatives. Mr. O’Toole provided a review of current events within the Municipality’s jurisdiction including the Darlington New Build and Refurbishment projects, the Durham/York Energy-from-Waste facility, the Port Granby initiative, Durham Regional Police Services new building, the new Newcastle Fire Hall, and the waterfront. He addressed the funding shortfall of the 407 East extension. Mr. O’Toole feels the process has failed and that the east gateway should not end at Harmony Road. He also expressed disappointment with the expropriation process as residents and farmers are not being treated fairly, land is lying dormant and properties are being vandalized. He also feels that the project will not be completed within the anticipated timeline. Mr. O’Toole stated the recent increase in development charges are of concern to him with the $50,000 cost of obtaining a building permit for a residential lot. He also feels there should be more transparency in fees and taxes. Mr. O’Toole discussed the Metrolinx proposal to fund infrastructure with 1% HST and 5% gas tax and the need for more accountability on where the money is being spent. Mr. O’Toole stated he supports transit; however, Durham does not have the population density required noting roads and automobile infrastructure is Durham’s transit system. Mr. O’Toole discussed the effects of the mandatory arbitration system on municipal finances and the need for a fair way to resolve issues. He stated Public Sector Agreements must reflect the ability to pay. Mr. O’Toole commended Council for supporting a moratorium on wind projects noting he is not opposed to renewable energy projects but for the right price and right location on a competitive basis.
