Subject to approval by the Legislature, they remain determined to transfer an improved and more cost-effective social housing system to municipalities, and to do so in an orderly fashion. They believe social housing is a service that is best administered at the local level. Local governments are closest to the people they serve and they know the needs of their communities. Transferring the administration of social housing to the municipal level would provide the opportunity to integrate some aspects of program delivery with other social services such as Ontario Works and child care. This, in tum, would pave the way for better services for individuals and lower costs for taxpayers.

The Provincial Government will spend $38 million, $31 million of which is new funding, to administer 7.9 million doses of influenza vaccine this year. The municipal cost of implementing this initiative will vary according to the number of inoculations administered through local public health units. Any cost to municipalities resulting from increased work in local public health departments must be balanced with the positive effect that immunization can have on workplace absenteeism.

Because of the increase in the pitch caused by the new sidewalk, it was necessary to reconstruct her driveway as it drops quite a few feet down to her garage. Mr. and Mrs. Marjerrison were quite concerned about the drainage at the bottom of the drive, as any error in calculation would have caused their garage to fill with water at the first Council Minutes -27- September 11, 2000 COMMUNICATIONS rainstorm.

Since early this year, they have held numerous Land Trust meetings at the municipal offices of Aurora, Caledon and Newmarket. The support that they have received to -date is very encouraging! In addition, some municipalities have been very generous in giving monetary support. The board members of the Oak Ridges Moraine Land Trust are very excited about their newly developed non-profit, non-political organization. Their goal is to help conserve and protect land deemed as heritage sites and/or ecologically significant, and they need support from all regions and municipalities across the Moraine. Developmental pressures on the moraine, threaten ground water and surface water supplies which communities depend on for drinking, agricultural irrigation, fishing and other forms of recreational enjoyment. Their group is working hard to educate the public about their goals, encourage membership and prioritize the areas on the moraine which are most important for protection.

The impact of the Walkerton tragedy has spread to every community in Ontario and they know it is a leading concern among our residents and summer vacationers.

Cities and towns like ours, are left to deal with the problems and public concern, on their own.

Aird & Berlis are counsel to Ridge Pine Park Inc. which owns and operates Wilmot Creek, a retirement lifestyle community in the Municipality of Clarington. On March 31, 2000, they filed a complaint pursuant to Section 20 of the Development Charges Act respecting the Municipality's method of calculating the development charge applicable to five mobile home units. That complaint was subsequently considered by Council and appealed to the Ontario Municipal Board. A hearing in that matter is scheduled to commence on September 27. 2000. Since that time Ridge Pine Park Inc. has submitted three additional building permit applications for sites numbered 22, 29 and 107 and has paid at the higher rate under protest in order to receive building permits for those units. Aird & Berlis are hereby making a complaint respecting these latest three permits. They are suggesting the most appropriate action would be for Council to defer consideration of this latest complaint until after the Board has issued its decision in the first matter. If the Board agrees with their position that the lower $615.00 rate is to be applied, then they would hope and expect that Council would apply that lower rate to the subject permits and all future permits as well, without requiring further appearances before Council and the Board.

(Receive for Information) 1-9 Wanda Pitchforth, Executive Director, Literacy Network of Durham Region, advising Council that September 8'h is International Literacy Day. This is a day set aside each year to recognize the importance of reading and writing in our communities, and the struggle faced by 55% of Durham Region's adult population who have some level of difficulty with literacy skills. The International Adult Literacy Survey report confirms that literacy is liked to the economic success of not only Durham Region, but the province of Ontario and Canada as a nation. Each and every day, employees are put to the challenge of dealing with higher level tasks in the workplace. The bar is being raised in order to adapt to changes in technology and market conditions. In fact, very few people in Durham Region have the reading and writing skills needed to meet today's challenges. The solution lies in revaluing learning. Adult literacy is an issue that demands serious attention by decision makers. Government business, educators, volunteers and individual citizens all have a role to play in creating a society that values learning and supports literacy for all age groups. The Literacy Network of Durham Region will be launching a family literacy tool kit in the near future and they hope that they can count on our support to encourage people in the Municipality of Clarington to pick up a copy of this tool and make use of its ideas.

More than 60% of the people in our province are not physically active enough to benefit their health. The Government of Ontario considers this a serious challenge to the health and quality of life in communities across our province, and has made a commitment to increase the number of physically active Ontarians by three per cent by the year 2001. The latest research tells them that the best way to increase physical activity is to make it a part of daily life. This means it is important for them to reach out to people in their workplace, school, homes, communities and the recreation, sport and health systems. Working together with the Ontario Physical and Health Education Association, ParticipAction, Parks and Recreation Ontario, the Ontario Public Health Association, the Leisure Information Network, the Canadian Fitness and Lifestyle Research Institute, provincial sports organizations and other partners, they have begun launching a number of provincial initiatives to support this new direction.

(Receive for Information) 1- 15 Ruby McPhee, advising Council of a letter that was published in her local paper on August 23, 2000, regarding Toronto sending their garbage to the Adams Mine Site. This is not an ordinary landfill site we are voting on. This is a small lake at the bottom of a large pit. The mine has been closed for several years and if the pit didn't leak it would be over 600 ft deep instead of 250 ft deep. Ms. McPhee's nephew who is a geologist and mining engineer and has worked in mines in Africa and now is currently in Brazil worked at this Adams Mine in the summer holidays while he was going to mining school. He said one of his jobs was to do a dye test to see if the pit leaked. The results of the dye test showed that the water in the pit leaked out into all the little streams and the river that is close to the site. This is where Mr. McGuinty is going to pump the water out of the pit into all these little streams and the river. On voting to send Toronto garbage to this site we will be voting for a licence to kill as this water that he is going to pump out will contaminate the navigable waters from here to Ottawa and eventually the little streams and rivers flowing in the Municipality of Clarington's direction.

For this final round of awards, the ministry is streamlining the application process on the basis of input from long-term care providers and associations. The new process in intended to be simpler, more flexible and it will help ensure that beds are built on time and in service areas where there is the most need. Under the new requirements, applicants must own, have an option on land or a long-term lease and demonstrate they can meet the ministry's financial and development requirements. Preferred locations have been identified by the ministry to provide assistance to applicants looking for sites. (Receive for Information) I - 17 Rick Rakus, General Manager, Central Region, Enbridge Consumers' Gas, informing Council that starting next month, they will be notifying their customers about an upcoming natural-gas rate increase. The Ontario Energy Board has already approved an 11.9% increase for natural-gas costs, effective June 1, 2000. The upcoming rate increase will be more substantial. They have asked the Ontario Energy Board to approve an increase of an additional 18.1% effective October 1, 2000, the largest part of which is due to the increase in the commodity price of natural gas, which has virtually doubled over the last year. Mr. Rakus would like to stress that Enbridge Consumers' Gas will not profit from this increase. As a utility regulated by the Ontario Energy Board, they are not allowed to mark up the price they pay for natural gas. They set their rates based on exactly what it costs them to buy natural gas. (Receive for Information) 1- 18 Michael J. Williams, Director, Environmental Assessment & Approvals Branch, advising Council about certain requirements of the new Regulation entitled "Drinking Water Protection, O.Reg. 459/00". If we are the owner of a waterworks and our system does not meet the minimum treatment requirements as laid out under Section 5 of the Drinking Water Protection Regulation, we are required to complete a notice and return it to their branch by October 31, 2000. This notice is to describe the action we propose to undertake in order to achieve compliance with the regulation, and set out our timetable for that action. (Receive for Information) Summary of Correspondence BE September 25, 2000 1- 19 Manan L. Robson, Chairman, Canadian Transportation Agency, advising Council that on July 5, 2000, the Canada Transportation Act (the Act) was amended to address restructuring within the Canadian air transportation industry. One of the amendments specifically addressed the notice requirements for air carriers proposing to reduce or discontinue air services within Canada. An air carrier is now required to give affected communities notice that it proposes to reduce or discontinue air services to a point within Canada in three situations. If one of these situations arises, then the carrier must give the community or communities affected 120 days notice before the date it proposed to discontinue or reduce a service. Carriers who have served a point for less than one year are required to give 30 days notice. A carrier may apply to the Agency to have the notice period reduced. (Receive for Information) CORRESPONDENCE FOR DIRECTION D - I Bonnie Oliver, Member and Community Relations Manager, Auto Workers Community Credit Union, requesting Council to proclaim Thursday, October 19, 2000, as Credit Union Day. International Credit Union Day will be held on October 19, 2000. This day is part of a week in which they celebrate the accomplishments of Canada's 10,000 co-operatives, credit unions, and caisses populaires. This year's theme is "Co-ops and Credit Unions... Investing in Canadian Communities." Canada's co-operatives and credit unions represent the optimism that Canadians feel about the communities in which they live. Not only do co-operatives and credit unions invest in communities, the returns that those investments yield stay in those communities, providing jobs and generating economic activity. For co-operatives and credit unions, success is also measured in the number of jobs they create, in the services they offer to their members, and in the equitable way they distribute their earnings within the communities they serve. More than 135,000 people are employed by co-operatives and credit unions from coast to coast. (Motion to Proclaim) D-2 Donna Schinkel, Chairperson, Durham Region Breastfeeding Coalition, requesting Council to proclaim October 1 to 7, 2000, as World Breastfeeding Week in Canada. World Breastfeeding Week celebrates the importance of breastfeeding for all women, children, families and communities. This year's theme is Breastfeeding: It's Your Right! It recognizes the importance of raising awareness about the fact that breastfeeding is a right for both mother and child and seeks to stimulate a shift in public thinking so that this right is respected, protected, facilitated and fulfilled at household, community and government levels in every country. This special week provides an opportunity for people around the world to join together, in celebration and action, to raise public awareness of the benefits of breastfeeding to mothers, infants and society at large; and to recognize that breastfeeding women are subjects of human rights, not objects of charity. (Motion to Proclaim) U �_, Summary of Correspondence - 9 - September 25, 2000 D-3 Louise Button, Clarington/Newcastle Block Parents, requesting that October 23 to 29, 2000, be proclaimed Block Parent Week. Each year, one week in October is designated as Block Parent Week throughout Canada. Communities are asked to help promote the Block Parent program and to create a safe community for all citizens. In recognition of this week they would like to request that the Block Parent flag fly at the municipality office on Temperance Street. They would hope that if this request were granted that the mayor or designate would be able to join them for a short ceremony to raise the flag. If their request were granted they would seek permission from Community Services to advertise Block Parent Week on the two service boards ie. Garnet Rickard Complex and near the Bank of Montreal. (Motion to Proclaim) D-4 Becky Wall, Public Health Nurse, requesting Council to proclaim October 4, 2000, as International Walk to School Day. International Walk to School Day replaces National Walk a Child to School Day (WCSD). On October 6, 1999, over 42,000 students actively participated in the second annual WCSD in the City of Toronto, York and Durham Regions. Through our support, they can make Intemational Walk to School Day successful once again this year in Durham Region. International Walk to School Day, endorsed by the Canadian Federation of Municipalities, was established to encourage children and parents to become more physically active, increase safe walking routes to school and promote cleaner air in our communities. The importance of this day should not be underestimated. Two thirds of Canadian children do not participate in enough physical activity to lay a solid foundation for future health and well being. Traffic collision statistics for the Region show that young children need to be taught the importance of safe walking routes and practises. In 1998, approximately twenty people under the age of 20 were involved in non-fatal collisions with vehicles. Many of these collisions were due to unsafe pedestrian actions. (Motion to Proclaim) D - 5 Deborah Bull, President, Oshawa and District Branch of the Ontario Registered Music Teachers' Association, requesting Council to proclaim November 19 to 25, 2000, as Canada Music Week. The Ontario Registered Music Teachers' Association (O.R.M.T.A.) is part of a Canada -wide federation of private music teachers encompassing ten provinces. The air of this Association is to encourage and provide the highest calibre of music education possible and to promote high standards of music in each community. Students studying with their teachers are assured of qualified, knowledgeable instruction and are provided with opportunities for performance in music festivals, examinations, public and private recitals, masterclasses as well as provincial and national competitions. Canada Music Week celebrates compositions and performances by Canadians nation-wide and is recognized in this community through colouring contests and recitals organized by the Oshawa and District Branch of O.R.M.T.A. They would be please to receive a certificate to add to their archives. (Motion to Proclaim) Summary of Correspondence - 10 - September 25, 2000 D-6 Michelle Clarke, requesting a crossing guard be placed on Simpson Avenue and Jane Street in Bowmanville. After exercising all other options Ms. Clarke has been directed to Council to make an application for a crossing guard. Ms. Clarke's six-year-old daughter attends Ontario Street Public School and she is concerned for the safety to and from school. Living on the east side of Simpson Avenue, she must cross this busy street without the aide of a crossing guard or traffic lights. Through conversations with transportation and Ontario Street Public School, her daughter is unable to be bussed as she is within walking distance to her school. The only aide that is available to her to cross Simpson Avenue is at Simpson and King Streets where there are lights and a guard available. For her daughter to walk to the lights, cross, then walk back to Jane Street it will add 20 minutes to her trip as well as put her over the kilometers that is considered walking distance. (Motion to refer correspondence to the Public Works Department) D-7 Mr. and Mrs. Howe, advising Council that they are against any bridge being built over Foster Creek. This exclusive neighbourhood would be greatly affected due to traffic volume and speed, and the property values in this very desirable area of Newcastle would never be the same. Many of them have enjoyed their court being tucked away from the larger subdivisions and by having a major throughway on Grady Drive the problem of traffic would be very dangerous for all of the younger children who now enjoy the freedom of their street with it's low traffic volume. The environment surrounding the creek will be destroyed if a major bridge and road are constructed. They as taxpayers do not want to foot the bill for this bridge to be built and would be very resentful of any of their taxes going to the road construction as well. Let the developer pay as he will only make money from it and they will loose all their equity and peace and quiet and safety that they now enjoy. (Motion to refer correspondence to the Director of Planning and Development) D - 8 Local Architectural Conservation Advisory Committee, advising Council that LACAC on September 19, 2000, passed the following resolution: "THAT L.A.C.A.C. requests of Clarington Council that in Council's response to the review of the Regional Official Plan that the review address the preservation of cultural heritage resources, in particular, the relocation of heritage structures." (Motion to receive and refer correspondence to the Director of Planning and Development for consideration with Report PD -088-00) Summary of Correspondence - 11 - September 25, 2000 D-9 David Climenhage, Chairman, Greater Canadian Town Band Festival, requesting Council's support for the continuation of Greater Canadian Town Band Festival in 2001 and future years as a major international band festival. Mr. Climenhage believes this years' festival was a great success. Over 3000 people attended the events over July I" weekend that included the Military Tattoo, Victorian Ball, The Callathumpian parade and the series of concerts held throughout the village. Their audience was entertained by some of Canada's finest bands and experienced the sounds of historic bands that have rarely been heard in Canada. The cost of mounting this festival is high because of the outstanding quality of bands, the travel expenses for visiting bands and the cost of staging and advertising the event. After all revenues and costs are included they have a budget deficit from their first year of approximately $16,000. The festival committee raised a total of approximately $70,000 in cash and their total expenses were $86,000. If the in- kind donations of $20,000 are included, their revenue would total $90.000 raised versus $106,000 in total expenses. The Great Canadian Town Band Festival is unique in Canada and has the potential to become a major tourist attraction. Mr. Climenhage is requesting support from Council in the form of a loan to finance this years deficit and to consider a level of sponsorship for next year. Their committee is developing an aggressive plan to fund raise so that they will repay the deficit and cover all expenses for next year's Great Canadian Town Band Festival. (Motion for Direction) D- 10 Federation of Canadian Municipalities, requesting Council to add their support on FCM's proposals for the 2001 Federal Budget. They are asking the Municipality of Clarington to add its support by contacting Members of Parliament and the Prime Minister of Canada. Last year, FCM's success in achieving a new National Infrastructure Program was principally the result of their membership communicating consistent messages to federal political leaders. They urge us to participate in this process again. (Motion for Direction) D - 11 The Township of Stephen, advising Council that the Township of Stephen on September 5, 2000, passed the following resolution: "WHEREAS water is a basic unit of life; AND WHEREAS business does not view water as a social resource necessary for life but as an economic resource to be managed by market forces like any other commodity make money; AND WHEREAS governments must not hand this precious resource over to the private sector ensuring that decisions regarding the allocation of water center around business considerations, and that the management of water resources will be based on the principles of scarcity and profit maximization rather than long -tern sustainability; Summary of Correspondence - 12- September 25, 2000 AND WHEREAS business is driven by increased consumption to generate profits and is therefore more likely to invest in desalination, diversion or export of water rather than conservation; AND WHEREAS during the Walkerton crisis the local Council and PUC relied on Ontario Clean Water Agency's expertise, experience and in- depth knowledge during those challenging days and to the present time; NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Province of Ontario be petitioned not to sell the Ontario Clean Water Agency or any Ontario water resource to the private sector; and that this resolution be forwarded to the Premier of the Province of Ontario for consideration and circulated to the Minister of Environment and Energy, Minister of Municipal Affairs, M.P.P. Helen Johns (Huron/Bruce), opposition party leaders and to Ontario municipalities for support." (Motion for Direction) D - 12 Sharon Todd, Public Relations Consultant, Weight Watchers Canada, writing to Council regarding Koren Hillier, Weight Watcher Leader and Service Provider. Ms. Todd is requesting Council's support for Koren Hillier to raise money for the Canadian Cancer Society and Breast Cancer Awareness in the "Head for a Cure" campaign. Koren has promoted healthy living and support to her Weight Watchers members in her "At Work" meetings, since November 1999 at the Town Hall location. As well, she has supported cancer fundraising efforts in many ways. She has, for example, participated in the first Terry Fox in Newfoundland, and has been moved by the event's power ever since. As many of Koren's family, friends and members have been touched by this cruel disease, she believes participating in "Head for Cure" through soliciting pledges to have her head shaved is her way of supporting them and helping find a cure. She is thankful for her many blessings in life and believes she has the choice to try to make a difference. Koren has chosen to shave her head whereas most cancer patients doesn't have a choice of losing their hair. On September 23 at the Ajax Community Centre, Koren will shave her head along with 1 I others. Her goal is to raise $10,000 of which she has already raised $4,000. (Motion for Direction) D - 13 Lynn Martin, Campaign Associate, United Way, requesting permission to hang a banner over highway #2 from October 1, 2000 until October 27, 2000, for United Way Oshawa/Whitby/Clarington. They are hoping to create more awareness and visibility of the United Way in Clarington and this time period falls within their annual campaign time.

Potting Shed) and is a 50% matching funds program. This is the grant that Tim felt was the most promising. Sher reported on a Funding Meeting she attended in Whitby.

ENOL 3 Pages FILE VALL1 F August 21, 2000 Environment Canada Attention: Mr. John Grieves Dear Mr. Grieves, Re: Goodvear Canada Inc. Settlement Bowmanville Creek n �� Municipality of Clarington ft' CLOCA File �— Thank you for advising us of the status of charges against Goodyear Canada Inc., regarding the petroleum spill on Bowmanville Creek. We would like to take this opportunity to suggest possible projects that could be undertaken to improve the fish habitat of Bowmanville Creek. If a settlement is reached with Goodyear, we believe that the best use of any resulting funds is the completion of fish habitat improvement projects on the watershed. As you are aware, we have just completed the Bowmanville Soper Creek Aquatic Resource Management Plan. The report contains numerous conclusions and recommendations for projects that could be undertaken to improve the fish habitat of the watershed. We would like to undertake a Bowmanville Soper Creek Aquatic Resource Management Plan Implementation Program to carry out these recommendations and projects. An example of possible projects that could be undertaken include: • Study fish passage through the Goodyear dam fishway, and make structural improvements as deemed appropriate. (reference: p 159, recommendation 1) • Complete stream stability studies through the Vanstone Dam area, and undertake restoration works. (reference: p130) • Creation of a sea lamprey barrier in the vicinity of Baseline Road (reference: p 159, recommendation 2) • Provide funding for land stewardship projects, including riparian vegetation restoration (reference: p 143), reforestation (reference: p 145), and in -stream fish habitat improvements (reference p 145). • Acquire environmentally sensitive land for conservation and protection of fish habitat Providing funding to CLOCA for the Implementation Program has several additional benefits. CLOCA works closely with Fisheries and Oceans Canada and the Ministry of - - Natural Resources, and meet regularly to discuss fishery issues and projects. CLOCA has significant in house expertise and experience with fish habitat issues, and has a Level 3 agreement with DFO for the administration of Section 35 of the Fisheries Act. CLOCA also has the ability to match any funding through partnerships with federal, provincial, municipal, or private interests. Finally, CLOCA is committed to working with the community. The ARMP has been developed through a public process with input from other agencies, academic organizations, interest groups, and the general public. We also recognize the efforts of Valleys 2000, and the Bowmanville Anglers, and look forward to assisting these public interest groups in their endeavours. In conclusion, the Bowmanville Soper Aquatic Resource Management Plan Implementation Program is a great opportunity to close the door on environmental damages as a result of an accidental petroleum spill, and to apply any resulting funding to protecting and improving fish habitat on the same watershed. We trust this is to your satisfaction. Please feel free to contact the undersigned if you have any comments. Yours truly, J.R.

THE CORPORATION OF THE MUNICIPALITY OF CLARINGTON REPORT #2 REPORT Meeting: COUNCIL File #_ Date: September 25, 2000 Res. # Report #: CD -50-00 By-law # Subject: VICIOUS DOG DECLARATION • GILKS It is respectfully recommended: THAT Report CO -50-00 be received; and 2. THAT the vicious dog declaration served on Nicole Gilks be upheld. BACKGROUND AND COMMENT Nicole Gilks lives at 50 Bradshaw Street, Bowmanville and has four dogs (two adults and two pups). On September 6, 2000, her neighbour called police and indicated that there is an ongoing problem with the dogs barking and running loose. On this date, the dogs started barking again and the owners were at home. The neighbour decided to go over and ask the owners to keep the dogs quiet (it was approximately 2:00 a.m.) The door wasn't closed tightly and when she knocked on it, it swung open. Two of the dogs began barking and charged at her. The screen door was closed but, due to the fact that there was no screen, the dogs came right through the door. The two dogs attacked and the neighbour was bit on the - back of her right leg. Her screaming alerted another neighbour who came out and assisted. The woman was taken to Lakeview Health, Bowmanville and treated. She suffered severe bruising from the bite. This neighbour is concerned for the safety of the residents of the neighbourhood. The Department of Health ordered the dogs to be quarantined at their residence for a period of 10 days. This quarantine period was to end on September 15, however, when our officers went to the property on September 11, the dogs were running outside. All four dogs are presently being held at the Animal Shelter. The two adults are suffering from an extreme case of Fleas. Following investigation of the incident, the Animal Services Officer issued a declaration of vicious dog to Ms. Gilks. The declaration requires the owner of the vicious dog to: 1. licence and register the dog with the Clarington Animal Shelter and have the dog permanently Proof of such registration must be provided to the Animal Services Division within 30 daidentified by microchip implantation, at his expense, within 21 days of receipt of the Declaration. ys; 2. notify Clarington Animal Shelter immediately upon relocating the dog or upon transfenfng ownership of the dog; Report CD -50-00 2. September 25, 2000 3. restrain the dog at all times, while the dog is on her own property, by keeping her enclosed in a pen or other enclosure in such a manner as to prevent the dog from leaving the property and to prevent contact with people and other animals; restrain the dog at all times, while the dog is off her own property, with the use of a muzzle and a leash no longer than 6 feet and under the care and control of a person who is 16 years of age or older. Ms. Gilks pleaded guilty and was charged with two offences for failure to licence. The first offence, the court imposed a $50.00 fine and the second offence Ms. Gilks received a suspended sentence. Ms. Gilks will be addressing Council to appeal the vicious dog declaration on September 25, 2000. It is staffs recommendation that the vicious dog declaration be upheld.

("Blue Circle"). That report discussed in some detail the complex ant interrelated components of the Principles of Understanding including land transfers, the acquisition of Cove Road (then a private road) and certain additional land. the reconstruction of Cove Road. the construction of approaches and a bridge over the Westside Creek an( dedication of the same as a public highway, financial arrangements with Blue Circle and the making of certain other agreements and arrangements. The Principles of Understanding - implemented recommendations of the Waterfront Regeneration Trust. 2.2 At the meeting on June 19, 2000, Council approved the recommendations contained it Report Solic-0-00 and authorized the execution of the Fourth Amending Agreement to tht Report No. WD -36-00 Page 3 Principles of Understanding. (The Principles of Understanding dated November 3, 1997, as amended are referred to in this report as the "Principles".) 2.3 At the meeting on October 6, 1997, Council approved the recommendations contained in Report WD# -64-97 that conditional on Council's approval of an agreement with Blue Circle, staff be authorized to prepare by-laws for Council's approval to stop up and close and authorize the conveyance to Blue Circle of a portion of Waverly Road, and to dedicate a portion of the Blue Circle haul road and its extension as a temporary public highway. The Principles of Understanding dated November 3, 1997 satisfied the condition respecting an agreement with Blue Circle. 2.4 At the meeting on November 3, 1997, Council also passed By-law No. 97-249 dealing with the Temporary Public Highway. Parts 7 and 9 on Plan 40R-17774 and Parts 12 and 13 on Plan 40R-17775 (see Attachment No. 2) were dedicated as a public highway until a by-law is passed dedicating Cove Road and the connections of it via a bridge over Westside Creek to Cedar Crest Beach Road. The land required for it was part of Blue Circle's haul road and was leased to the Municipality for a term that ends when the Cove Road dedication by is passed. 2.5 At the same meeting, Council passed By-law Nos. 97-250, 97-251 and 97-252 to stop up and close as a public highway a portion of Waverly Road described as Closure Area A in the Principles, declare it and associated reserves to be surplus under Section 193 of the Municipal Act, and to authorize the conveyance of the lands comprising Closure Area A and associated reserves, being Parts 1, 3 and 5 on Plan 40R-17774 to Blue Circle as provided for in the Principles. The transfer of these lands to Blue Circle will not take place until the "Closing Date" provided for in the Principles. It is expected that the Closing Date will occur before the end of July, 2000. 2.6 As provided for in the Principles, Public Works has given Blue Circle written notice that Cove Road, the Westside Creek Bridge and the approaches to them have been constructed or reconstructed to the satisfaction of the Director of Public Works. As a consequence, subject to Council's consideration of representations made at the public hearing on July 10. 2000, Council now can pass a by-law dedicating Cove Road, the Westside Creek Bridge and the approaches to them being Parts t, 2, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12 and 13 on Plan 40R-17895 (see Attachment No. 1) as a public highway and assume them for public use. 2.7 If Council decides to dedicate Cove Road , the Westside Creek Bridge and approaches to them as a public highway, it would be appropriate to pass by-laws to stop up and close the Temporary Public Highway as a public highway on Parts 7 and 9 on Plan 40R-17774, to declare Part 9 to be surplus and to authorize the release and surrender of any interest of the Municipality in Part 9 on Plan 40R-17774 (see Attachment No. 2) to Blue Circle. No. WD -36-00 2 2.8 The Principles provide that after the passing of the dedication by-law referred to in paragraph 2.6, Council will consider whether to close and authorize the conveyance to Blue Circle of the portion of Waverly Road described as Closure Area B (see Attachment No. 3), together with the associated reserves. Public Works has determined that an appropriate area for turning vehicles can be provided entirely within the portion of Waverly Road at the southerly end of the Hydro One Transmission Corridor, without requiring the transfer of an easement from Hydro One Transmission Corridor to the Municipality, to accommodate the turning area for this purpose. 2.9 If the Temporary Public Highwav is closed, the Municipality will not require Closure Area B to be retained as a public highway. Accordingly, subject to Council's consideration of representations made at the public hearing on July 10, 2000, Council could pass by-laws to declare them surplus, to stop up and close Parts 1, 2, 3, 12 and 13 on Plan 40R-17775 as a public highway, to declare Parts 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14 and 15 on Plan 40R-17775 surplus and to authorize the transfer of the latter Parts to Blue Circle. 2.10 Prior to the negotiation and the execution of the Principles by the Municipality on November 3, 1997, and the passing of the by-laws referred to in paragraph 2.5, Council had obtained an assessment of the fair market value of the portions of Waverly Road and associated reserves abutting Blue Circle's lands. However, as noted above, the Principles contain complex and interrelated provisions dealing with land transfers, the cost of the reconstruction of Cove Road and the cost of construction of the Westside Creek Bridge and approaches as well as other financial burdens assumed by Blue Circle and the Municipality, respectively. 2.11 Attachment No. 6 to Report #Admin -47-97 is a memorandum from Franklin Wu, then the Director of Planning and Development, to W.H. Stockwell, then the Chief Administrative Officer, in which Mr. Wu recommended that Waverly Road be deemed surplus and be closed and conveyed to Blue Circle in exchange for a portion of the Westside Marsh and other lands on both sides of West Beach Road. Mr. Wu also stated that the land exchange is necessary to implement the recommendation of the Regeneration Trust and is in compliance with the procedure governing the sale of real property as set out in By-law No. 95-22. (The latter by- law was passed under section 193 of the Municipal Act and establishes procedures governing the sale of real property.). 2.12 Blue Circle is the owner of the lands abutting Closure Area B and located both to the east and to the west of it. It is recommended that by-laws be passed declaring the lands within Closure Area B to be surplus and notwithstanding section 7 of By-law No. 95-22, to authorize their transfer to Blue Circle as abutting owner for a nominal consideration. 2.13 2.14 3.0 3.1 No. WD -36-00 Closure Area D referred to in the Principles is a portion of Waverly Road located northerly of the intersection of Waverly Road and Watson Drive. It comprises Parts 2. 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 15, 16, 17, 18 and 19 on Plan 40R-19843 (see Attachment No. 4). Parts 8, 9, 10, I 1 and 12 comprise the portion of Waverly Road within Closure Area D. The other parts are associated reserves. Blue Circle has consented to the closure of Parts 8, 9, 10, 11 and 12 as a public highway and to the conveyance of these Parts and the associated reserves to CLOCA, provided that certain easements are first transferred to Blue Circle in Parts 2, 4, 5, 9, 10, 12, 15, 17 and 18 on Plan 40R-19843. The easements proposed to be transferred to Blue Circle are described in the Public Notice (see Attachment No.5), The easementsar rm re required to allow Blue Circle to construct and maintain a portion of an acoustic be certain land, the overflow channel from the Westside Marsh on the land and to access lands to the east and west on Closure Area D on which certain works will be constructed and maintained by Blue Circle to implement the Principles and other agements. The lands to re be transferred to CLOCA will be managed by CLOCA with the Reconfigured Westside Marsh and other areas as part of the Bowmanville/Westside Marsh Complex pursuant to a Management Agreement with the Municipality which is contemplated by the Principles. The portion of Waverly Road within Closure Area D is not required as a public highway. Subject to Council's consideration of representations made at the public hearing on July 10, 2000, it is recommended that a by-law be passed to stop up and close as a public highway Parts 8, 9, 10, 11 and 12 on Plan 40R-19843. It is also recommended that notwithstanding section 7 of By-law No. 95-22, Parts 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 15, 16, 17, 18 and 19 be declared surplus. It is further recommended that a by-law be passed authorizing the transfer to Blue Circle for a nominal consideration of easements in Parts 2. 4, 5, 9, 10. 12, 15, 17 a 18 on Plan 40R-19843 as described in the Public Notice contained in Attachment No. 5 and nd subject to these easements, Parts 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 15, 16, 17. 18 and 19 on Plan 40R-19843 be transferred to CLOCA for a nominal consideration. RECOMMENDATION The by-laws and transfers of lands referred to in this report will complete the land transactions provided for in the Principles of Understanding with Blue Circle in accordance with the intent of the Principles and are recommended for approval for that reason.

REPORT #4 THE CORPORATION OF THE MUNICIPALITY OF CLARINGTON REPORT Meeting: COUNCIL File # Date: SEPTEMBER 25, 2000 Res. # Report No.: ADDENDUM TO WD -36-00 By -Law # Subject: BY-LAWS TO DEDICATE COVE ROAD AS A PUBLIC HIGHWAY AND TO r CLOSE, DECLARE SURPLUS, AND AUTHORIZE TRANSFERS OF PORTIONS OF WAVERLY ROAD, CERTAIN RESERVES AND THE TEMPORARY PUBLIC HIGHWAY TO IMPLEMENT THE PRINCIPLES OF UNDERSTANDING WITH BLUE CIRCLE CANADA INC. Ree mend )us: It is respectfully recommended to Council the following: I • THAT Addendum to Report WD -36-00 be received. REPORT 1.0 BACKGROUND I.1 On July 10, 2000, Council held a public meeting in respect of the proposed by-laws contained in Report WD -36-00 as required by the Municipal Act. No person made representations to Council respecting any of the by-laws. 1.2 Since the first closing of the Principles of Understanding between Blue Circle Canada Inc. and the Municipality of Clarington had not occurred before July 10, 2000, on the Solicitor's advice, Council deferred consideration of Report WD -36-00 until the Solicitor advised that the first closing has occurred. You have now been advised that the first closing has occurred. 1.3 Section 193 of the Municipal Act requires that as a general rule, before surplus land of the Municipality can be sold, an appraisal of the fair market value of the property must be obtained. 1.4 Report WD -36-00 recommends the sale for a nominal consideration of the lands and easements which had been transferred to the Municipality by Blue Circle Canada Inc. in escrow at the first closing, to CLOCA for a nominal consideration. CLOCA has entered into a Management Agreement with the Municipality in respect of these lands and easements as well as an Option Agreement under which the Municipality may reacquire ADDENDUM TO REPORT NO.: WD -36-00 PAGE these lands and acquire other parts of the Bowmanville Marsh from CLOCA if certain events occur. 1.5 Property Valuators/Consulting Inc. were retained to prepare an appraisal of fair market value of the lands and easements v, nick were transferred by Blue Circle to the Municipality in escrow. The appraisal dated June 23, 2000 is available for examination by Council and interested members of the public in the Clerk's office. 1.6 The fair market value of Waverly Road including Closure Areas B and D was previously appraised by Cornwall Property Consuuants Limited. A copy of the Cornwall appraisal is also available in the Clerk's office for examination by Council and interested members of the Public. 1.7 Blue Circle's lease of a portion of the haul road to the Municipality as a temporary public highway will terminate automatically when Council passes a by-law to dedicate Cove Road and the Westside Creek Bridge as a public highway. The passing of the road closing by-law is necessary to change the legal characteristic of the land from land having the legal characteristic of a public highway so that it will again become the private property of Blue Circle. 2.0 CONCLUSION 2.1 This report is provided for Council's information in order that Council can comply with section 193 of the Municipal Act.

FILE NO.: DEV 97-083; DEV 97-084 RecOmMendations: It is respectfully recommended to Council the following: 1 • THAT Report PD -076-00 be received; 2• THAT the applications DEV 97-083 and DEV 97-084 initiated by the Municipality of Clarington, to amend Comprehensive Zoning By-law 84-63 of the former Town of Newcastle, as amended, be APPROVED; 3• THAT the amending by-laws attached hereto be forwarded to Council for adoption subsequent to the closure of the temporary public highway and the release of the lease on the temporary public highway; 4• THAT the changes in the proposed by-laws are minor and that a new Public Meeting to consider the revision to the by-laws is not necessary; 5. THAT a copy of this Report be forwarded to the Region of Durham Planning Department, Blue Circle Canada Inc., Central Lake Ontario Conservation Authority and the Port Darlington Community Association; and 6. THAT all interested parties listed in this report and any delegations be advised of Council's decision. 1. BACKGROUND 1.1 In 1996 Council authorized the Municipality to enter into negotiations with Blue Circle Canada Inc. (Blue Circle) to implement the recommendations of the report of the Waterfront Regeneration Trust entitled "Westside Marsh - Report and Recommendations". Arising from these discussions are the "Principles of Understanding" between Blue Circle and the Municipality of Clarington which were adopted by Council on November 3, 1997. This agreement contains a number of REPORT PD -076-00 PAGE 2 conditions that must be fulfilled by both the Municipality and Blue Circle towards the completion in the arrangements. 1.2 Included in the "Principles of Understanding" are proposed changes to the Durham Regional Official Plan, Clarington Official Plan and the Municipality's Zoning By-law which were agreed to by staff and representatives of Blue Circle. On November 3, 1997 Council approved the modification to the Clarington Official Plan and requested the Region to modify the Regional Official Plan upon the fulfillment of conditions by both the Municipality and Blue Circle. In addition, two zoning by-laws were prepared that would implement the concept and were attached as Schedules to the "Principles of Understanding". The Municipality agreed to initiate the process under the Planning Act to rezone the lands associated with the Westside Creek diversion, the Westside and Bowmanville Marshes and the Marsh Link Area, and on January 19, 1998, a Public Meeting was held in accordance with the requirements of the Planning Act. 2. APPLICATION DETAILS 2.1 Two applications have been initiated by the Municipality of Clarington to rezone lands _ currently owned by Blue Circle and Hydro One Networks Inc. The details of the applications are noted below. 2. 1.1 Application DEV 97-083 Owners:. Blue Circle Canada Inc. Hydro One Networks Inc. (Ontario Hydro) Rezoning: from "Agricultural (A)" zone and "Extractive Industrial Exception (M3- 1)" zone to "Agricultural (A)" and "Environmental Protection (EP)" zones. Location: Hydro One Networks Inc. transmission corridor, location of the creek diversion, westerly portion of the Bowmanville Marsh and other smaller holdings (Attachment No. 1) Area: 24 hectares (59 acres) REPORT PD -076-00 PAGE3 2.1.2 Application DEV 97-084 Owners: Blue Circle Canada Inc. Rezoning: from "Extractive Industrial Exception (M3-1)" zone to "Environmental Protection (EP)" zone. Location: Reconfigured Westside Marsh, Marsh Link Area and overflow channel (Attachment No. l) Area: 39 hectares (96 acres) 3• SITE CHARACTERISTICS AND SURROUNDING AREAS 3.1 The subject lands are dominated by the Westside Marsh, Bowmanville Marsh and Hydro One Networks Inc. transmission corridor. The lands also possess a portion of the Waterfront Trail and some open space areas. 3.2 Surrounding Uses: West - Blue Circle quarry, cement plant and associated uses East - Bowmanville Harbour Conservation Area and Bobby C's Restaurant and Manna (formerly known as Port Darlington Marina). North - C. N. Railway and Highway 401 South - Cove Road and Cedar Crest Beach Road residential areas. 4• OFFICIAL PLAN POLICIES 4.1 Durham Reeional Official Plan 4.1.1 The lands subject to application DEV 97-083 include the future creek diversion, a portion of the Bowmanville Marsh and other small holdings. These areas are designated "Major Open Space" and "Waterfront Link" in the Regional Official Plan. The designations appropriately reflect the current and future status of the lands. 4.1.2 The lands subject to Application DEV 97-084 include a portion of the Westside Marsh and Marsh Link Area. They are designated as "Special Policy Area B" within the Durham Regional Official Plan. In ADMIN Report 47-97, Council requested the Region of Durham to amend the Official Plan to reflect the "Principles of Understanding" with REPORT PD -076-00 PAGE 4 Blue Circle. Council also requested that the Region not adopt the proposed modification be to the Official Plan until such time as the temporary public highway is closed and the ' Lease is released to Blue Circle. By-laws to close and convey this temporary public S highway will be considered by Council on Julv 10. 2000. 4.2 Clarington Official Plan ;p, 4.2.1 The lands subject to application DEV 97-083 are designated "Waterfront Greenway" and tei "Environmental Protection" in the Clarington Official Plan. The designation appropriately reflects the current and future status of these lands. r 4.2.2 The lands subject to Application DEV 97-084 are designated as "Special Policy Area 2" and are also deferred in the Clarington Official Plan. In ADMIN Report 47-97, Council recommended approval of Modification # 170 to the Clarington Official Plan which s redesignates the reconfigured Westside Marsh and other lands as Environmental Protection Area. This modification also proposes a number of changes designed to L implement the "Principles of Understanding" and to ensure that existing irritants of noise v and dust will not be further aggravated as quarrying activities proceed easterly. The uc modification is to be approved by the Region of Durham at such time as the temporary a} public highway is closed and the Lease is released to Blue Circle. 'p ty 5. ZONING BY-LAW PROVISIONS cc 5.1 The lands associated with these applications are currently zoned "Agricultural (A)" and tit "Extractive industrial Exception (M3-1)". The proposed by-law amendment will zone re. the majority of the lands "Environmental Protection (EP)" to reflect the new creek diversion, the green space system, and to protect the reconfigured marsh. Those lands la located within the Hydro One Networks Inc. corridor and not committed to the creek diversion area, shall be zoned "Agricultural (A)" as these lands are not required for the an conveyance of the creek and the hazards associated with the creek. ns 6. PUBLIC MEETING AND SUBMISSIONS 6.1 The public meeting for this proposed amendment to the Municipality's Zoning By-law, as REPORT PD -076-00 PAGE 5 required by the Planning Act, was held on January 19, 1998. In accordance with the regulations of the Planning Act, public notice was mailed to each landowner within the prescribed 120 metre (400 ft) distance and a notice was placed in the Canadian Statesman. 6.2 At the Public Meeting, one resident stated that they are generally in favour of saving as much of the marsh as is possible. This resident also stated that concerns pertaining to noise and dust are being addressed. There has been no other correspondence received by the Planning Department either in support or opposition to this application. 7. AGENCY COMMENTS 7.1 The rezoning applications were circulated to various departments and agencies for comment. Comments were not received from the Ministry of Natural Resources, the Ministry of Transportation, C. N. Rail and CLOCA. Although comments were not received, these agencies are aware of the process. CLOCA, in particular, has been an active participant in fulfilling the "Principles of Understanding". 7.2 The Municipality of Clarington Fire Department and Public Works Department have no objection to these applications. Also, Clarington Hydro, now Veridian, had no objection to the application, but did request to receive a copy of the proposed plan for the reconstruction of Cove Road in order to examine if there will be any impact to services. 7.3 The Region of Durham Planning Department advised that detailed comments will be provided prior to the Region acting on the deferral (Deferral No. 1). They advise that any zoning amendment for DEV 97-084 will not come into force and effect until the required Official Plan policies are approved. The attached by-law references that the zoning will come into effect when the deferral is resolved. 7.4 On April 10, 2000 Hydro One Networks Inc. advised verbally that they had concerns regarding the extent of the "EP" zoning for their corridor lands. Hydro One Networks Inc. is considering additional revenue opportunities for linear services which would be REPORT PD -076-00 PAGE 6 constructed within their corridors (e.g. fibre optic cable). Accordingly they requested that the zoned lands be restricted to the diversion channel lands only. 7.5 In April 2000, Blue Circle Canada. in review of the proposed zoning, confirmed that an easement exists, in favour of Blue Circle Canada, to allow access to the quant' across Hydro One Networks Inc. corridor lands west of Waverly Road. These lands are currently zoned "Agricultural (A)". In accordance with the "Principals of Understanding", Hydro One Networks Inc. lands in their entirety were to be zoned "Environmental Protection (EP)". Blue Circle expressed concern that rezoning the entire corridor lands, including the easement, "Environmental Protection" would not accurately reflect the entrance use. Blue Circle also requested that the zoning of the lands located west of the Waverly Road adjacent to the Overflow Channel Lands "A", `B" and "C" (Attachment No. 1), reflect the registered plan for this area. The lands used for the purposes of conveying water from the marsh to Lake Ontario, including the easement lands to provide access to maintain the Overflow Channel will be zoned "Environmental Protection (EP)". The lands located west of the features will be zoned "Extractive Industrial Exception (M3-1)". S. STAFF COMMENTS 8.1 The applications for rezoning have been initiated by the Municipality of Clarington as agreed upon in the "Principles of Understanding". By-laws were prepared and form part of the "Principles of Understanding" being Schedule "N" and "O" respectfully. Although the agreement indicates the intent of both parties to proceed with the zoning by-laws identified in the agreement, it expressly indicates that Council's legislative discretion is not fettered by the agreement. The clause recognized that the previous Council could not bind the current Council. It also recognized the public notice requirements of the Planning Act that needed to be followed prior to making a decision. 8.2 Ownership of much of the land subject to these applications will be transferred to Central Lake Ontario Conservation Authority (CLOCA). The rezoning of the subject lands REPORT PD -076-00 allows for revisions to assessed value to reflect the limited range of uses under conservation authority management. 8.3 Cove Road has been reconstructed and the bridge connecting Cove Road and Cedar Crest Beach Road has been constructed and is currently being traveled upon. Council on July 10, 2000 will consider by-laws to adopt Cove Road as a public highway and to officially accept and open the bridge. Public Works has confirmed that Veridian has had Opportunities to review the plans to assess if there will be any impacts to their service. 8.4 Hydro One Networks Inc.'s concerns have been reviewed. As the surveys of the creek diversion area have been completed for these lands and deposited with the registry office, their request can be accommodated. The 'Environmental Protection (EP)" zoning will reflect the limits of the creek diversion and the remainder of the lands will be zoned "Agricultural (A)". 8.5 Blue Circle Canada's request have been reviewed and as previously established as per Hydro One Networks Inc. request, only these lands used for the creek diversion works will be zoned `Environmental Protection". As such, the lands subject to the easement for the entrance to the quarry are currently zoned "Agricultural (A)" and will remain so zoned as such. With respect to the lands located west of Channel Lands "A", `E" and "C", these will be zoned "Extractive Industrial Exception (M3-1)". 9. CONCLUSION It is recommended that the by-laws which accompany this report as Attachment No. 2 and Attachment No. 3 be approved. The by-law for DEV 97-084 (Attachment No will not come into force . 3)and effect until such time as the appropriate modifications to the Municipal Official Plan and Regional Official Plan are adopted in accordance with Section 24(2) of the Planning Act.
