in his last will and testament;
Summary of Correspondence - 3 - January 29, 2007
And Whereas during the period of time that the Ontario Historical
Society has owned the Banting homestead the condition of the
buildings has deteriorated and the property has.not been used in a
manner that is consistent with honouring the work of Sir Frederick
Banting;
And Whereas the Town of New Tecumseth believes that the lands as
well as the buildings have an important historical and heritage
connection to Sir Frederick Banting and his achievements;
And Whereas the Town has attempted over many years to facilitate in
good faith the transfer of the lands to a not-for-profit organization that
would ensure that the buildings are repaired and the lands and
buildings are used to properly commemorate the importance of the
Banting legacy to not only the community in which it is located but also
to the world;
And Whereas the Ontario Historical Society has agreed to sell the 100
acre Banting Homestead lands to the highest bidder who we
understand proposes to only make available a small parcel size
surrounding the buildings for the purposes of recognizing Sir Frederick
Banting;
And Whereas the Town believes that the minimum parcel size for the
purposes of properly honouring both the intentions of Edward K.
Banting in bequeathing the lands to the Ontario Historical Society and
the work of Sir Frederick Banting is 70 acres;
Now Therefore Be It Resolved:
1. That the Town of New Tecumseth expresses its extreme
disappointment with the Ontario Historical Society in agreeing to
sell the Banting Homestead Lands without ensuring that a
minimum of 70 acres of the 100 acres of the original lands
bequeathed to the Society by Edward K. Banting were available to
educate the public about the historical significance of the work of
Sir Frederick Banting;
2. That the Ontario Historical Society and the Ontario Historical
Society Foundation be formally requested to support the
designation of the northerly 70 acres pursuant to the Ontario
Heritage Act, 2005;
3. And that this resolution be forwarded to Helena Guergis, MP
Simcoe Grey, the Premier of Ontario, Jim Wilson, MPP and the
Association of Municipalities of Ontario for circulation to its

Dear Ms. Langmald:
Re: WaRbridge House
F
Thank you for your notice respecting the Council meeting of Monday, January 29, 2007.
Although we will not be in attendance at that meeting, we wish to confirm our oliant's
position that it would appear to be a rather inefficient use of resources to proceed to a
contested hearing before the Conservation Review Board, if the Municipality does indeed
intend to acquire the Wallbridge House. As we have previously confirmed, should the
Municipality decide to acquire the property, our client would no longer have any concern
f' with the proposed designation and would withdraw its previous objection.
E We would appreciate advice from your Council as to its intention with respect to the
( acquisition of the property. We had understood that this was a matter which would be
Q considered by Ciarington Council early In 2007,
I Would you please provide the undersigned with a copy of the decision of Council next
Monday. Thank you very much.
I� Yours very truly,
AIRD & BERLIS LLP
