DELEGATIONS
Gary Dalby, General Manager of Roy Nichols Motors, addressed Council concerning
Correspondence Item D — 2 - Opposition to Construction of Proposed Sidewalk on
South Side of Highway 2. Mr. Dalby requested a thorough review to determine
whether the sidewalk is warranted at this time.
Council Meeting Minutes - 6 - June 16, 2014
He cited the following reasons that the sidewalk should not be constructed:
• A sidewalk already exists on the north side of the highway.
• There has been no recent development on the south side which would
necessitate a sidewalk.
• Subdivision pedestrian traffic currently is forced to cross Highway 2 at either
Trulls Road or Courtice Road intersection lights. A sidewalk on the south side
would result in persons crossing between the lights in an unsafe manner.
• The area of the proposed new sidewalk has a stretch of undeveloped brush
land which puts pedestrians at risk.
• The Region of Durham has plans to widen Highway 2 in the future, which would
result in reconstructing the proposed sidewalk.
• The Maple Grove area, fronted by approximately 100 homes is in much greater
need of a sidewalk.
In conclusion, he asked that Council reconsider the need for a sidewalk at this time.
Wendy Bracken addressed Council concerning Correspondence I — 13, Air Quality in
Clarington. Ms. Bracken referenced a recent study performed on mice examining the
effects of air quality. She noted that 24 hours after exposure inflammation was
rampant and 270 days after exposure there was permanent damage. Ms. Bracken
stated that these findings added to the growing body of evidence that poor air quality
is linked to autism and other neurological disorders. She questioned the standards of
Clarington's air quality and Clarington's ability to protect children as it relates to the
problem with the levels at the Clarington incinerator. Ms. Bracken reminded Council
that the levels exceed that set by European jurisdictions. She cited a long term
research study from Harvard which indicated that pregnant women in areas with high
levels of air pollutants are more than twice as likely to have children with autism than
those with better air quality. Ms. Bracken stated that she is concerned that there is a
"perfect storm of pollutants" with the combination of the incinerator, St. Marys Cement,
Highway 401- and new Highway 407 connection. She urged Clarington Council to be
proactive and take action regarding particulate matter. Ms. Bracken expressed her
disappointment with Clarington's Regional representatives, in voting on a motion
regarding increased monitoring of the incinerator stack. She added that she is also
concerned that Clarington Council voted down Councillor Neal's motion regarding air
monitoring. Ms. Bracken urged Council to ask for more information to protect
Clarington's children. She asked Council to take action in a timely manner and ask for
regular reports back to Council highlighting the reports, especially any malfunctions
and exceedances.

RBC Blue Water project
An RBC representative was interested in a planting project at the SWNA as part of their
Blue Water environmental initiative. After agreeing on a location for the planting RBC
eventually decided not to undertake the project this year.
Waterfront Trail Relocation project
The committee reviewed the trail relocation project that will be tendered later this
spring with construction anticipated for late summer or fall. The goal of the project is to
eliminate a steep section of trail by cutting diagonally across the valley wall on the east
side of the bridge. Trees will be removed for the project but Clarington's design
engineers will route the trail to minimize the impact on trees where possible. Re-routing
the trail will also remove that section of Waterfront Trail from Hydro One land which
will eliminate the need for a future land use agreement and annual fees for this section
of trail.
Future Toronto Street Construction Project
In 2015 or 2016 the Region of Durham will be installing a sanitary trunk sewer from
Hwy 401 to the sewage treatment plant at the foot of Toronto Street. The pipe will go
under the road and will result in the complete reconstruction of Toronto Street. Access
to the SWNA Toronto Street parking lot will still be available via Lakebreeze Drive.
During construction a temporary route for the Waterfront Trail will need to be
established.
The reconstruction of the road will also provide an opportunity to move the Waterfront
Trail entirely off-road in that area. Two scenarios are possible.
One scenario would be to construct a 3m wide trail parallel to Toronto Street along the
west side of the new road. When Toronto Street is rebuilt it will be to an urban cross
section. The trail would be above the curb and off the road.
Another scenario would be to reroute the trail diagonally to connect to the existing trail
at the north end of the Regional sewage treatment plant. This would require the trail to
go through the woods and across the creek. A site inspection by Clarington staff will be
conducted to review the feasibility of this scenario.
The committee requested that staff consider including a small parking lot at the
entrance point to the Waterfront Trail as part of the project. P.Windolf will discuss the
idea with appropriate staff in Engineering.
Reptiles at Risk Outreach Program
Reptiles at Risk has been contact twice this spring via e-mail about the possibility of a
summer event at the SWNA but they have yet to respond. If they do still offer outreach
programs P. Windolf will try to confirm a summer date for an on-site presentation.

INTRODUCTION OF NEW MEMBER
R. Malone introduced himself to the Committee and noted that he was the President of
the Newcastle Village and District Historical Society. He also advised the Committee
that two alternate members from the NVDHS were selected to attend future Heritage
Committee meetings should he be available, these members were Marianne and David
Saunders.
ACTION: F. Langmaid to add Marion and David Saunders onto the mailing list of the
Clarington Heritage Committee.
BUSINESS ARISING
Jury Lands Foundation (Camp 30) - F. Langmaid advised that the by-law for the Jury
Lands Foundation is at the finalization stage and the articles for incorporation will be
submitted shortly. Following incorporation the organization will seek charitable status.
The Jury Lands Foundation members will be going on a tour of the Brickworks in
Toronto on Thursday, June 19, 2014 with Stewart Chisholm the Executive Director or
Evergreen, the purpose is to discuss and view how rejuvenations can happen.
The Municipality approved $45,000 during the budget review to retain an architect to
conduct a structural analysis on the buildings on Camp 30. A site visited was conducted
with the owner, foundation chair, F. Langmaid, and Chris Borgal on Friday, June 13,
2014. C. Borgal will be conducting a structural analysis and the deliverables will include
a scan of the original drawings for the Boys Training School, an analysis of the six
municipal register buildings on site, priority listing for repair and securing the buildings
with associated cost estimates.
Ontario Heritage Trust Nominations — No additional nominations had been
recommended. F. Langmaid advised that a report was due to Council before September
30, 2014.
Geographic Information System and Heritage Database Presentation — F. Langmaid
and C. Yan gave a presentation on the Municipality's Geographic Information System
(GIS) and Land Development Office (LDO) property database management system for
the Committee's information. It was demonstrated that the system allows Planning
Services staff to quickly access information pertaining to a property for which an inquiry
is made.
In addition to the heritage inventory being added as a geographical layer that can be
accessed, there are also layers for zoning, CA regulation area, aerial photographs from
21Page.
2000 to 2013 (every couple of years) and other geographical based information. The
LDO system is linked to the GIS system but is a tracking system for applications such
as building permits, zoning, subdivision, committee of adjustment, etc.
In addition to these two systems the Municipality has the photos that Karin and David
have taken of cultural heritage resources which can be used to track change over time
to a property.
The heritage file for each designated property has been scanned and is available
electronically. This is the basis from which the website was built a couple of years ago.
The next step would be to take'the heritage inventory binders, scan each page and
attach those files to the property fabric. This is a matter of time and resources.
It was through a combination of the GIS system and the taxation information for
properties that the database for barns of a certain age and their owners was created.
REPORTS FROM OTHER COMMITTEES (COMMUNITY IMPROVEMENT PLANS,
ETC.)
Bowmanville CIP —The next meeting is scheduled for October 15, 2014.

decision on the options at their next meeting.

3. BUSINESS ARISING FROM THE MINUTES
Curry Clifford advised that he and Ron Albright met with representatives of GO Transit
and Durham Region Transit. Based on their discussions, Curry added their response to
the Committee's three questions to the "Table of Input" and circulated the addition to the
committee members.
Goal (Question#1)
Their overall objective is to move to an integrated regional transportation network. GO's
plans are set out in the "Big Move"paper.
1
Current State (Question#2)
Density (in residential, commercial and industrial development) is the key determinant
for Durham Region Transit planning — so Clarington's OP and TMP is critical in
determining the overall transit planning direction. In the meantime, DRT is working
from a five year service plan that has the status of"resource document".
A one fare system between GO and DRT and GO covering DRT routes recognizes
commuting. patterns and illustrates how these two agencies work together to meet
community needs.
GO bus ridership demand on existing routes, including Hwy. #2, is continuously being
assessed and adjustments made to reflect demand with notice give to DRT to ensure
continuity of service, 3 —4 weeks' notice given to users, but notice not generally given to
municipalities. DRT changes are approved by Regional Council and generally,
depending on scale of the change, involve a Public Information meeting.
While the route for GO train service to Bowmanville has been determined and the
environmental assessment for it completed, it is us currently unfunded. Prioritization
across the entire GO system is determined by the Metrolinx Board that then seeks
Provincial government approval for projects to be added to the Province's 10 year capital
plan.
Proposed Actions (Question#3)
There was no response to this question.
4. DISCUSSION OF OVERALL APPROACH OF FINAL REPORT — SUGGESTED
WAY FORWARD
The Committee had a general discussion of the suggested way forward and agreed that
much of what needs to be achieved is already in progress but there is a need to
communicate better and prioritize. At the same time, there is a need to finalize the plans
(land-use and transportation) to realize the Committee's desired outcomes. The
Committee then discussed draft recommendations to advance this overall approach.
Curry agreed to provide a draft copy of the final report by Monday, June 23rd for
Committee's review prior to the next meeting on Wednesday, June 25th at 7:00 p.m.
5. DISCUSSION OF SUGGESTED STRUCTURE OF FINAL REPORT
The Committee members were in agreement as to the structure and outline of the final
report.

There was no further direction noted.
8. DISCUSSION OF LOGISTICS AND TIME FOR COMPLETING, APPROVING
AND PRESENTING THE FINAL REPORT

Grant Humes took the Board through the finance report. He reported that although revenue

projection to show if there will be an issue with cash flow through the year.
The balance of the Development Fund on June 5th was $64,149.69. With the planned
projects (signage, Boys bedroom and sponsorship)this is projected to be at$32,549 at the
end of the year.
Grant also presented a report on the risks and opportunities available in the upcoming
months. The risks are associated with$13,000 in the fundraising, gift shop and public
programming projections.
The opportunities are $25,000 from being allowed to apply for CMOG funds and$10,000
current proposals in for sponsorship.
The gift shop inventory and the Kirby Church monies are also risks associated with the
budget, totalling$27,000
Grant recommended to the Board,that the Kirby Church issue be resolved by the end of

Mayor Foster recommended Julia speak to Nancy Taylor regarding the background to the
buying of Kirby Church and any associated agreements regarding this.

e) Property(M. Morawetz)
Julia reported she is meeting with the Municipality team on Friday to discuss moving
ahead with the project. There was a further discussion over the relationship between the
Museum and Municipality over maintenance issues and in particular for major capital
projects. The Mayor suggested contacting the Older Adults Association regarding the
agreement they have with the Municipality.
f) Kirby Church
The ED passed on an email report from Julie Cashin Oster regarding the Kirby Church.
With the ED she has discovered we are currently holding $14,700 in funds for the
Church. The Board reiterated the earlier financial discussion that this project be resolved
by the end of the year. The ED reminded people it had been agreed to have Julie Cashin
Oster, the ED and John Witheridge on a sub-committee to end the relationship with the
Kirby Church.
11.New Business:
a) The Board Chair proposes a motion"to reconsider the vote at the May Board meeting on
having the Municipality look after the Museum books for 1 year".
Due to his absence at the meeting Clayton outlined the concerns John had
discussed with him after the May Board meeting. These concerns as Clayton .
understood them were-the high workload of the current team at the Museum, to
get the books sorted out so that they are more clearly in line with the needs of the
Municipality. A discussion took place over how this could work and if it would in
fact help the Museum. There was also the issue raised over sending out an RFP to
recruit a new book keeper. The following motion was proposed
MOTION That Clarington Museums request a letter of understanding from the
Municipality on how they would manage the books of the Museum for one year
and what services the Museum would receive. If this letter was not received within
30 days the Museum will undertake an RFP process to recruit a new book keeper.
MOVED by Joe Neal SECONDED: by Grant Humes
The above motion was discussed. Joe Neal reminded the Board this would be a
saving of around$5,000. This would be helpful when the museum makes its
annual budget request to the Municipality. Clayton agreed with this.
The motion passed.
b) Signage-the Executive Director presented a new logo for the Museum. The logo
will be used on signage but is also a rebranding exercise for the Museum. The
letterhead also included altered coloured images of the 3 sites. Each site will have
its unique colour.
MOTION that the new logo be accepted but without the 3 images.
MOVED by Olinda Casimiro Seconded by Clayton
Passed
c) The Sarah Jane Williams Heritage Centre- as in the Strategic Plan of the Museum
the ED recommended the Board hold a discussion panel with other members of the
Municipality and the community over the use of the SJWHC and possible
partnerships. Olinda reminded the Board to make sure any partnerships or other
plans for the building would not be in conflict with the Museum by-law. It was felt
this would not be the case but was a point worth noting.,
14. Date and Place of Next Board Meeting:
The next meeting will be held September 10th, 2014 at the Sarah Jane Williams Heritage
Centre at 7 p.m.

is happy to be involved in any media events surrounding the graffiti issue. P.C.

willing to be involved in media events.
Clarington Safe - 2 - June 19, 2014
Communities Committee
The Committee discussed possible methods of handling graffiti complaints.
P.C. Wind indicated that this Committee should not be the vehicle for complaints.
Mayor Foster suggested setting up a Clarington email such as
stopgraffiti ,clarington.net. The Committee concluded that it would be helpful to
have an employee from the Communications and Marketing Division attend the
September Clarington Safe Communities Advisory Committee meeting to
develop a solution for graffiti reporting.
Chris Newman added that the graffiti cleanup day had limited community
outreach, mainly due to the weather, but that the residents contacted were
supportive of the types of initiatives and appreciated the student's initiatives.
d) Standard Event Poster— Final Design
Chris Newman indicated that he would forward the final design, to all Committee
members, prior to the September meeting. He added that the Youth Leading
Youth group is developing a poster, which will be forwarded to the
Communications and Marketing Division for approval.
e) Family Safety Day - Friends of Simon Weisenthal Centre for Holocaust Studies
June Gallagher informed the Committee that Anne Greentree had contacted
Jennifer Delaney, Fire Prevention Officer, regarding the possibility of including
the "Friends of Simon Weisenthal Centre for Holocaust Studies" as part of the
September 27, 2014 Family Safety Day event.
3. NEW BUSINESS
(a) DRPS Trending Report
P.C. Wind informed the Committee of the recent break-ins in the Bowmanville
area. He added that DRPS is sending out information on simple ways to secure
the home, to be available through various websites.
P.C. Wind informed the Committee that he is conducting a presentation on home
security and home safety.
Mayor Foster raised the possibility of a separate Safe Communities Facebook
page, however the Committee felt that it might not be advantageous to split the
audience with additional-Facebook pages. Chris Newman will email the Safe
Communities logo to P.C. Wind to be included in future communications,
including information sheets. An information sheet can be distributed through the
Clarington social media via the Clarington Communication and Marketing
Division.
P.C. Wind noted that the DRPS plans to provide residents with a link to the
Ministry of Community Safety and Correctional Services online safety book.
Clarington Safe - 3 - June 19, 2014
Communities Committee
Len Creamer left the meeting at 3:40 p.m.
Councillor Hooper informed the Committee that he will be attending a jeweller's
webinar next week and will forward any additional information on.home safety.

representative.attends the Safe Communities meeting in September, there could
be a discussion surrounding a communications strategy.
b) Youth Leading Youth Group
Chris Newman reminded the Committee that the Youth Leading Youth Group
works on youth based initiatives and issues. He noted that they partnered with
Safe Communities Committee and DRPS for the graffiti cleanup event.
Chris added that Youth Leading Youth will be involved in the Summertime
Madness Event to be held on Thursday, June 26, 2014 between 1:00 p.m. and
7:00 p.m. at the Bowmanville High School. He explained that this is an event for
Clarington high school students to get them involved in networking in a fun way,
including games and activities. The event will include different youth-serving
agencies as well as those providing youth summer programs. Chris Newman
added that the goal is to have other high schools in the community host one of
these similar events in the future.
Youth Leading Youth will be on hiatus during the summer, but Facebook and
Twitter will still be monitored.
Mayor Foster noted that the Youth Leading Youth group performed well as part
of.the Relay for Life event.
Mayor Foster asked whether one of the school board trustees could be part of
the Clarington Safe Communities Advisory Committee. June Gallagher will
forward an invitation to trustees.
c) Brainstorming Next Event— Family Safety Day
The Committee discussed the possibility of an information booth, similar to last
year. Chris Newman volunteered to prepare an information sheet on what the
Committee has accomplished, its goals, and future events/plans. Pastor
Wildeboer stated that he is willing to help out on Family Safety Day. The
Committee expressed the hope that the signs will be ready for the event.
A discussion finalizing the plans for Family Safety day will be take place at the
next meeting, on September 18, 2014.
Clarington Safe - 4 - June 19, 2014
Communities Committee
4. OTHER BUSINESS
a) Communications and Marketing_Division
The Committee agreed that it would be beneficial to have a representative from
the Communications and Marketing Division attend the September meeting.
b) Safety Presentation
P.C. Wind informed the committee that, recently, fire volunteers, residents, and
youth toured the area of Elgin and Concession streets providing information
regarding reporting suspicious activity, and fire safety information. As a result, a
couple of residents have indicated that they may be interested in attending a
safety presentation. P.C. Wind suggested that the Rehoboth Church could be
used for the presentation. P.C. Wind and Pastor John will work out the details of
the presentation.
c) Is Clarington a Safe Community?
Mayor Foster asked whether P.C. Wind thinks the community believes Clarington
is a safe community. P.C. Wind stated that, in general, people believe Clarington
is a safe community. He added that it is important to stress the house security
tips. P.C. Wind noted that 40-50% of crimes are crimes of opportunity, therefore
messaging and working with the community is important in reducing crime.
