RE: MEMORANDUM FROM DR. ROBERT KYLE, COMMISSIONER &
MEDICAL OFFICER OF HEALTH, DATED SEPTEMBER IO, 2OO9
RE: TOWN OF FORT ERIE RESOLUTION
OUR FILE: 100-00
Please be advised the Health & Social Services Committee of Regional
Council considered the above matter and Council adopted the following
recommendations of the Gommittee:
"a) THAT the following resolution of the Town of Foft Erie dated
May 25,2009, with respect to amendment of the Ombudsman
Actlo authorize the Ombudsman to investigate public
complaints about hospitals, be endorsed:
'WHEREAS the Ombudsman is the "citizen
representative" and the Office of the Ombudsman is
responsible for responding to complaints affecting
government organizations save and except hospitals,
long-term care facilities and children's aid societies, and
WHEREAS the Office of the Ombudsman has been
advocating since 1975 to include hospitals under the
jurisdiction of the Ombudsman, but to date, Ontario
remains the ONLY Provínce in Canada who's
Ombudsman has no jurisdiction over hospitals and long-
term care facilities, and
WHEREAS hospitals spend more than $20 billion in
public money every year in Ontario, and
WHEREAS whether overseeing the police, the military or
the Provincial Government, Mr. Marin has stated one of
the beliefs that's closest to his heart is that these bodies
don't exist for their own ends. They exist to serve the
public. The public also has great expectations of the
checks and balances that exist to keep the system
functioning as it should, and
WHEREAS the historical reason for not including
hospitals under the Ombudsman Act is extremely weak
and is based on the fact they do not fall under the
definition because they have their own elected boards,
and
WHEREAS a municipal "board of directors" is directly
elected by the public and the hospital board is not, and

Ombudsman Act
WHEREAS the Offlce of the Ombudsman is quoted as
saying, "Ontario is the only province in Canada whose
Ombudsman does not have a mandate to oversee
hospitals. Despite this, the Ombudsman's Office receives
many serious complaints about hospitals every year that
cannot be investigated. A total oÍ 276 complaints about
hospitals were received in fiscal 2007-2008.", arìd
WHEREAS the time has come for the Government of
Ontario to include hospitals under the jurisdiction of the
Ombudsman Act to ensure a high level of health care,
fiscal responsibility, accountability, openness and
transparency;
NOW THEREFORE BE lT RESOLVED by the Municipal
Council of the Town of Fort Erie that it hereby petitions
the Premier of Ontario to take the necessary steps in a
timely manner to amend the Ombudsman Act to include
hospitals under the jurisdiction of the Ombudsman, and
further
THAT: ln the event the Premier responds negatively, the
Municipal Council of the Town of Fort Erie respectfully
request and expects a full and complete explanation as to
why the Province will not amend the Act as requested,
and further
THAT: This resolution be circulated to all municipalities in
the Province of Ontario for support, and further
THAT: The appropriate persons be so notified of this
action.'; and
b) THAT the Premier of Ontario, Minister of Health and Long-
Term Care, Speaker of the Ontario Legislature, Durham's
MPPs, Ontario's Ombudsman, Chief Medical Officer of Health,
alPHa, and all Ontario boards of health and municipalities be
so advised."

Attention: All Ontario Municipalities
Niagara-on-the-Lake Motion - Approved November 23,20Q9
Moved by: Councillor J. Lowrey, Seconded by: Councillor J. Collard
Now therefore be it resolved that the Region of Niagara be requested to enter into a benefit sharing
agreement with the lower tier municipalities; and
That Lord Mayor Gary Burroughs and Regional Councillor Dave Lepp table the attached motion in support of
that agreement at Regional Council before the finalization of their 2010 budget; and
That this resolution be forwarded to all municipalities within Niagara, including the Region of Niagara,
seeking their support; and
That this resolution be forwarded to AMO for circulation to all Ontario municipalities for their support and
endorsement; and
That lower tier municipalities across Ontario be requested to follow the lead of Niagara municipalities and
negotiate with their upper tier partners a benefit-sharing agreement that distributes the uploading tax room
with each municipality in both the upper and lower tiers.
Please forward your notification of support to the Town of Niagara-on-the-Lake Clerk's Department and to
the Regional Clerk at the Regional Municipality of Niagara (P.O. Box 1042, Thorold, ON L2V 4T7).
Region of Niagara Motion - Proposed
Whereas the Province of Ontario, after consulting with the Association of Municipalities of Ontario (AMO),
has seen fit to upload the costs of social services from municipalities; and
Whereas these costs were paid for by properties across the region based on property assessment; and
Whereas the uploading benefit to the Region of Niagara is anticipated to be $14.3 million in 2010; and
Whereas the uploading benefit that has been realized over the last two years will continue until 2018 so that
the cumulative impact of the uploading benefit off the Regional tax levy after 10 years is estimated to be
$64.386 million; and
Whereas upper tier municipalities have not passed the benefit of uploading back to their lower tier partners,
despite the compounded savings realized from incremental permanent uploading; and
Whereas the 12 lower tier municipalities in Niagara are forecasted to lose the OMPF special assistance
funding, totaling $8,477,900 in 2010; and
Whereas Niagara Regional Council has approved the following resolution:
"That Staff be directed to remove the total upload cosfs (2010, $14.3M) from the prevíous year's base
budget, such that the replacement of lost OMPF revenues, the ínflationary costs of social programs, and the
"2010 Guidance lncreases" can be transparently reported as the levy increases fhaf they are"; and
Now therefore be it resolved that the Region of Niagara be directed to share the gross benefits derived from
uploaded social services by passing through those savings to the lower tier Towns/Cities by way of a tax levy
restatement in 2010 in order to distribute those 2010 savings to each municipality proportionately based on
assessment.

Ministry of the Environment (MOE) Changes to Lead Sampling Requireme
lssue: MOE has amended O.Reg. 170103 and O.Reg .248103 with regard to requirements for lead
sampling in municipal systems and schools and day nurseries, respectively,
Background:
ln 2007, the Ontario government required municipal drinking water systems, schools and day nurseries to
undertake mandatory testing for lead in drinking water to ensure lead levels met the Ontario Drinking
Water Standards.
Since that time, the testing undertaken has demonstrated that the vast majority of municipal and non-
municipal residential drinking water systems, schools and day nurseries have met the standards. As a
result, MOE has recently filed amended regulations under the Safe Drinking Water Act to clarify some of
the requirements for testing and to introduce an automatic exemption for municipal drinking water systems
serving under 50,000 people.
The exemption is available to these systems if:
o The system is already doing reduced sampling or if the system has been granted sampling relief
by the Ministry; oro Not more than ten per cent of plumbing samples over a complete year of sampling (winter and
summer) have exceeded the standards.
The exemption is automatic once test results have been submitted to the Ministry and MOE approval is
not needed. Distribution system samples are still required.
MOE has already alerted drinking water systems owners registered with the Ministry regarding the
changes.
For further information, municipal officials are encouraged to contact the Ministry of the
Environment's Public lnformation Gentre at 416-325-4000 or 1-800-565-4923 or by email at
p icemai l. moe(Oontario.ca.
lnformation on the amendments is also available at:
www.onta rio.caldri n kinqwater.
Action: Members are encouraged to use contact the Ministry of the Environment for more detailed
information regarding the amendments. AMO will continue to keep members informed of developments in
water policy and requirements.
This information is available in the Policy /ssues section of the AMO website at www.amo.on.ca.

AMO is supporting what many Ontarian's identify as one of the highest valued services
delivered by municipalities -- recreation.
Building on research demonstrating the benefits of recreation for low income families, the
Ontario Task Group on Access to Recreation developed a policy framework and approach to
creating local access policies that reflect both community need and capacity.
The Task Group, comprised of numerous stakeholder groups and government representatives,
developed a vision supported by policy objectives and strategic considerations to guide
decision makers in creating and promoting local access policies that promote the
understanding that everyone should have access to affordable recreation in their community in
order to enjoy the health and social benefits, and to improve their prospects for a better future.
Municipal engagement in providing access to recreation for low income families can also
benefit the taxpayer. Research clearly demonstrates that recreation improves the prospects of
a person's mental and physical health, which leads to greater financial independence and
benefits to the taxpayer. Local communities are encouraged to implement access policies in a
manner that responds to both local needs and capacities.
But municipalities cannot go it alone in providing this important service. AMO's advocacy goal
is for the provincial and federal governments to assist communities and citizens through formal
policies and funding.
Action: AMO will advise the provincial government of its support for affordable access
policies and seek provincial support and commitment to moving forward on this policy. AMO
will also request a commitment from the federal government to increase access to recreation
for Ontarians.

The Auditor General's 2009 Report Highlights Human
Services Spending and Bridge lnfrastructure
lssue: The Auditor General's 2009 report examines value-for-money in the
administration of human services programs and safety inspections of bridges,
including municipally owned structures.
Background:
Every year the Auditor General of Ontario, Jim McCarter, examines selected provincial
programs and services. His 2009 annual report, released on December 7, 2009 contains
findings and recommendations that touch municipal governments (Consolidated Municipal
Service Managers (CMSMs) that deliver Ontario Works and Social Housing. The report
also examined accountability and information gaps relating to municipal bridge inspections.
Ontario Works:
Determination of eligible recipients for Ontario Works and efficiency in the administration of
the program were part of the review along with an audit of three CMSMs for the period of
2007lOB and 2008/09.
The summary of McCarte/s findings support concems that AMO and others have raised
consistently regarding the complexity of the provincial program. The key findings include:. Concerns with the confirmation of eligibility;o An increase in unrecovered overpayments of 45% since 2002:o Reliability of the Service Delivery Model technology.
Ontario Works administration funding is cost-shared by the Province and municipalities
notionally on 50:50 basis but a cap on provincialfunding many years ago. Current
caseloads are comprised on a significant number of hard to serve clients. This coupled with
increasing caseloads due to the economic down turn means even more expenditure
challenges for municipalities.
The pressures identified by the Auditor demonstrate the need to develop a streamlined and
responsive program that focuses on outcomes for recipients. AMO is currently working with
the province on implementing the recommendation from the Provincial Municipal Fiscal and
Service Delivery Review (PMFSDR) on principles for the future allocation of administrative
funding for Ontario works and looks forward to working with the province on streamlining the
rules so that resources can be invested in people while ensuring appropriated administrative
oversight is in place.

Correspondence dated November 30, December 1, 4, 8 and 9,
2009 from the Association of Municipalities of Ontario regarding
Page 36 of 269
It should be noted, the percentage increase in unrecovered overpayments reflect a
historical accumulation of all unrecovered overpayments across all CMSMS. This can
include overpayments not recovered under the General Welfare Act.
Social Housing:
The audit focused on the provincial role in maintaining sufficient social housing units in
partnership with municipalities and the federal government and whether funds for social
housing programs are efficíently managed.
The findings identify:. The provincial government is accountable for providing well maintained and
sufficient social housing across the province-despite the fact municipalities have
primary fund ing and administrative responsibilities.. Significant challenges exist for municipalities in maintaining the existing social
housing stock, this will be exacerbated through declining federalfunding; and. Programs and legislation must be better coordinated and more responsive to local
needs and capacities.
The auditor's recommendations support AMO's advocacy on these matters. The PMFSDR
specifically identified that changes must be made to the legislative and programmatic
relationships so municipal govemments can deliver housing in ways that makes sense for
their communities. These types of changes will likely find cost savings but, for the long term,
as identified by the Auditor, the province needs to be a funding partner. lt is also important
that the government and municipalities continue to work together to get the federal
government engaged in long term funding of affordable housing. AMO and the Minister of
Housing are doing just that through a variety of advocacy approaches, as is FCM.
Bridges:
The Auditor primarily examined bridge assets owned by the province and its inspections on
provincial bridges. The report also identified some gaps in aggregate information on
municipal bridge asset conditions across Ontario due to the lack of a unified municipal
database system. The report also noted a backlog of rehabilitation work in many
municipalities.
However, the Auditor General's report also notes that while municipalities have
responsibility for 80 per cent of Ontario's bridges, of the municipalities that responded to
their survey accounting for approximately 7,300 of 12,000 municipal bridges, 90 per cent
rated their bridges in good to fair condition. The report also noted many concerns shared by
municipalities regarding long-term, sustainable infrastructuré funding, and challenges
related to maintaining assets in municipalities with small property tax assessment bases.
Ontario municipalities own more infrastructure assets than any other order of government in
the province. Last year, the PMFSDR found that despite mgnicipal capital spending of over
$7.9 billion in 2008, an additional $6 billion a year for ten years would be needed to close
the infrastructure deficit and bring municipal infrastructure systems into a state of good
repair.

The ongoing uploading by the province for major social services costs and various
infrastructure programs, most with limited time lines, are helping with municipal
capacity to make progress on the infrastructure deficit, however the gap will remain for
years. Ontario municipalities cannot make up the infrastructure deficit alone and must
have long-term, sustainable and predictable infrastructure funding programs from the
federal and provincial governments to support these priorities.
AMO has begun work with the Ministry of Transportation on a review of municipal
roads and bridges as agreed in the PMFSDR final report. The objectives of the review
are to examine road and bridge responsibilities and funding arrangements in Ontario.
AMO will continue to inform members of the work of these groups and to advocate for
long-term, sustainable infrastructure funding on behalf of Ontario municipalities.

PROPOSED ENERGY CONSUMER PROTECTION ACT
Issue:
The Province introduced new legislation today that intends to protect consumers from hidden
contract costs, prov¡de greater fairness and transparency on rate compar¡sons.
Background:
Utility rates and retailer operations are approved and licensed by the Ontario Energy Board
(OEB). O. Reg 200102 under the Ontario Energy Board Act, 1998, includes a fairly lengthy list
of acts or om¡ss¡ons of a reta¡ler of electricity or gas marketer that are cons¡dered unfa¡r related
to utility rates, contract terms and details, as well as contract renewals, extensions, and
cancellations. ln addition, the OEB sets out "Fair Marketing Practices" in lhe Electrícíty Retailer
Code of Conducf and the Code of Conduct for Gas Marketers.
The OEB also created a Retail Compliance Plan (RCP) in early 2009 to verify that licensed
electricity retailers and natural gas marketers are ¡n compliance with their legal and regulatory
obligations. Throughout the spring and summer OEB staff conducted inspections of selected
electricity retailers and natural gas marketers - focusing on contract management and sales
agent training and monitoring. OEB staff have completed their inspections and have issued a
Retail Compliance Plan Staff Repoft. A number of energy retailers have been investigated and
fined in 2009 as part of this work.
The proposed legislation attempts to build on lessons learned from the OEB Retail Compliance
Plan exercises and to address concerns that have been commonly voiced in consumer
complaints.
In addition, the proposed Act intends to enable tenants to be directly financially responsible for
the amount of energy that they use by encouraging suite-metering. The Province has already
moved forward to enable individual suite metering in condominiums whereas the next phase
aims to target the 1 .3 míllion residential rental units in Ontario -- 1 .05 million of which are in the
private rental market and 262,000 are social housing and assisted units.
Mun¡c¡par¡t:::?äiilfi ^ìlo1-2
Correspondence dated November 30, December 1, 4, 8 and 9,
2009 from the Association of Municipalities of Ontario regarding
Page 39 of 269
Finally, the new legislation would also provide the government authority to establish
specific requirements for energy and suite-metering companies to follow with regard to
disconnections and security deposits, which could include:
. Requirements that utilities and suite metering companies need to meet for
disconnections including: black-out periods (e.9., winter months); special medical
reasons (e.9., disability, death of a spouse); ando Prescríbed reductions (or waivers) of security deposits for vulnerable consumers
who are recipients of energy assistance from government or other sources such as
the Winter Warmth Program.
What the proposed Energy Consumer Protection Act, 2009, means for municipal
governments:
1. Consolidating and strengthenÍng standards for energy retailers:
Municipalities that have contracts with energy retailers or that participate in purchasing co-
operatives may be impacted by the proposed changes. These changes do enhance consumer
protection for the most part but two clauses may negatively impact certain public sector energy
procurement practices without necessarily improving consumer protection: eliminating
evergreen renewals and mandating the exact price of a commodity to be delivered in the
contract. The former will result in an unnecessary administrative burden and expense while the
latter change threatens to severely restrict well-established procurement and hedging
strategies to the detriment of municipal energy consumption and utility rates.
AMO has offered similar early comments to the Minister and will pursue them further as the
pertinent regulations are developed to ensure that municipal and other broader public sector
(BPS) partners' procurement efforts are not negatively impacted.
2. Removing impediments to metering in multi-residential buildings:
The costs of individual suite-metering to municipal housing providers and service managers
would be high due to extensive and costly rewiring of units. As a result, AMO is pleased that
the Province is not planning to make this mandatory for existing facilities, and the Association
will seek exemption for any new social housing stock. AMO is also concerned with the
logistics of proposed rent decreases as they will have to be made up by the landlord (i.e. the
municipality), and tenants are generally struggling with a range of issues the least of which
may be energy conservation.
3. Developing a policy regime to protect low-income, vulnerable consumers:
The proposed changes to disconnection and security deposit policies will affect local
distribution companies directly but will not impact municipalities per se.
AMO strongly supports moves to enhance the protection of lowincome consumers and
pledges to work with the Ministry on reaching the LDC community during the development of
the pertinent regulations.

The Meetings Series
"Countless" was how one councillor described the number of hou¡s spent in
meetings! How might we irnprove this response? You need to understand the rules if
you expect to be effective in achieving your goals on council in a timely way.
Ttris workshop will provide practical advice specific to Heads of Council, members of
council, Muaicipal Clerks and,4,dministrators on a variety of topics relating to
council, committee and local board meeting procedures.
Members of council expect the Clerk to be the expert on parliamentary procedure.
But it is not appropriate to count on the Clerk to gruide every meeting. Members and
the Head both must all be knowledgealrle and confident in the rules governing meetings.
It will explore the elements of a successfirl meeting. It will provide you with the tools to find answers to your
procedural questions. This is a hands-on workshop where you will participate and be asked to share your
experience and expertise. IJVe will all benefit from this shared wisdom a¡rd the practical information
presented.

OGRA Response to 2ü19 Ontario Auditor General's Report - Bridges
December 07,2OO9 - Mississauga, ON - The Auditor General released ¡ts report today on the status of bridge
inspection and maintenance both at the Provincial and Municipal level. lt was particularly interesting to note that
many of the areas of concern and recommendations could be addressed through the use of the Ontario Good
Roads Association's innovative asset management tool Municipal DataWorks (MDW).
The Auditor General's report comes on the heels of a funding agreement reached between OGRA and the
Province and backed by the Ontario Ministry of Transportation, to continue development and enhancement of
MDW which will ultimately satisfy the concerns contained in this report.
Currently, 289 Ontario municipalities have committed to sharing information on municipal bridge inspection and
maintenance through MDW. That's over 65% of Ontario municipalities, and through the use of new tools that will
be built, OGRA hopes to have bridge data on the majority of structures in the province in a central database and
will share that information with the Province.
This will lead to better allocation of scare funds to ensure that Ontario's bridges remain safe. "OGRA is pleased
that the Ministry of Transportation recognized the value of the MDW. This applícation, which is free to Ontario
municipalities, is allowing us to ident¡fy and respond to the needs of rural and northern Ontario communities
where the need is often the greatest," stated OGRA President, Eric Rutherford.
'The recommendations contained in the Auditor General's endorse many of the objectives that OGRA has
committed to realizing with MDW' said OGRA Executive Director, Joe Tiernay. '"The aggregate knowledge MDW
provides all levels of government, will go a long way to positioning Ontario municipalities as leader in not only
bridge inspection and maintenance, but also other critical infrastructure management. "
Empowered with the ability to effectively manage cr¡tical infrastructure with MDW, OGRA's member
municipalities will be able to continue ensuring the safe and proper upkeep of municipal bridges.
The mandate of the Ontario Good Roads Association is to represent the infrastructure interests of municipalities
through advocacy, consultation, training and the delivery of identified services.

Thank you for your letter of September 24 rcgarding your Council's views about the Tourism
Competitiveness Study's final report, Discovering Ontario.I appreciate receiving your
suppoft as well as your valuable input related to the proposed tourism regions. Please
accept my apologies for the delay in my response to you.
While ll'te Discovering Ontario report represents a 1O-year plan, and a number of the
recommendations will require a longer-term strategy, I am committed to moving forward on
several of the recommendat¡ons in the near future. This action will, of course, keep Ontario's
current fiscal challenges in mind and we will certainly continue to work with our partners in the
tourism sector on new developments.
As you may be aware, the boundaries for the map presented in the repoft were a proposal only
for the purposes of initiating discussion. The Ministry has been working extensively, since the
release of the report, with tourism paftners to determine how the regions should be structured.
Earlier this year, the Ministry held 17 consultation planning sessions with our tourism partners on
the proposed regional structure. I am pleased that over 500 stakeholders from the sector
attended these sessions to provide their feedback on the proposed regional structure and identify
the potential roles of Destination Marketing and Management Organizations (DMMOS).
ln March 2009, our government announced $40 million through the 2009 Ontario Budget to
support tourism regions in Ontario once they are established. Recently, our government
announced an additional $25 million in each of the next two years to further support the
industry's transition to a regional tourism structure.
We are continuing to review the recommendations and suggestions from the regional
planning sessions, as well as written input from the regions, like yours, as we move forward.
We believe that a coordinated marketing approach with our tourism partners will further
enhance Ontario's competitiveness as a tourism destination.

A motion to accept the minutes ( *ith corrections) of October 8, 2009 was made
by Corþ Ouellette,2no. By Sandy Sage. Motion carried.
OIIEST SPEAKER : Cheryl Peters introduced our speaker Robin Barker James
who spoke on the Royal Canadian Navy.
The Royal Navy ( British) and the Royal Canadian Navy worked hand in hand and
many Canadians sen¡ed in the Royal Navy. In WW I the Canadian navy Corvette
vessel protected our submarines.
A Royal Navy tradition-British navy was the largest Navy in the world beginning
in W-W I and even though they lost more ships they won the Battle of Jutland.
Horashio Nelson lost an arrn, an eye and had his scalp peeled back but he kept on
fighting.
The Nelson Touch was a saying used by the navy men meant give it all, blast all
and don't give up. If told not to fight they fought anyway. Nelson had his leg shot
off, tied a rope around the stump and fought on till he bled to death.
There is a famous story told of Nelson being signalled to stop fighting. He put the
glass to his shot out eye and said "I don't see any signals) and fought on winning
when Copenhagen suffendered. The Canadian Navy men followed these ethics.
The Corvette was based on a whaler from the Arctic and the antarctic with a
harpoon gun mounted on the front, they weighed 40600 tons had from 9 to 140
crew and only went 14 to 16 knots but were very tough. The saying went that the
Corvette would roll over in wet grcss just turn the sprinkler on and over it would
go. There are only two left, the HMCS Sackville and the other is owned by the
Onassis Family who turned it ibto a yaught.
In 1940 to 1947 there lryas a shortage of cannon so the cre'ws cut telephone poles in

half and painted them grey, another little Nelson touch.
Winston Churchill & Delenor Roosevelt saved the USA from the Depression then
fought the war. Roosvelt used his own fortune to help children with polio building
pools for for them to swim in. When Churchill saw people lined up to to receive
bird seed after their town was bombed the night before he wept.
The ships were always rolling on the rough water and some sailors were sea sick
every day and would catry a bucket to stop drop and wretch into, then continue on
with the war.
There \Mere lots of recruits from the prairies who were attracted to the sea but most
of them did not swim.
The Royal Navy called the Royal Canadian Navy the Kindergarten as they had
little training.
In 1943-44 the allies used a new method, they hunted in killer groups and drove
subs uner the water. More aircraft were used When the Athabasca was shot down
German sailors held Canadian sailors under hot showers tto keep them alive.
The Haida became the most famous ship in WW I and is now a Museum in
Hamilton on the lake. 45 U-boats were captured and surrendered to the Royal
Canadian NaW. The HMS Shawinigan sunk and all but two died one of the lost
men was the father of Betfy Lou Wallington, his brother survived as he had been
put on shore at the last stop.
The HMS Oakvilles sound detector found a sub running and a battle blazed
between the two. The sailors found a wooden crate while looking for more afirmo
and it held coca cola bottles so they threw them at the enemy as they had no other
weapons. The Oakville rammed the u-bo at md as Lt. Lawrence stepped up on
deck wearing only his skivies the waist band broke and they fell around his ankles,
one of the german's thought they were going to be raped and jumped overboard.
Lt. Lawrence got into the life boat naked and with no shoes, the only injury he
sustained \ilas a cut on his foot from a broken coke bottle.
Robert Heil thanked Mr. Barker James for his most sightfull and entertaing history
of the Royal Canadian Navy.

fûe'/enr ín fuuieu¡
2009 has been both an exciting and rewarding year for mysetf and the staff at the Etgin Business Resource
Centre (EBRC). Despite the economic crises that have unsettted Etgin County this past year, I am pteased to
announce EBRC's invotvement with severaI successfuI initiatives.
The first devetopment was the rebranding of the Elgin Community Futures Devetopment Corporation to the
Etgin Business Resource Centre. This rebranding clarified our role as a resource for business devetopment for at[ of
Etgin County.
This year wetcomed the Sand Ptains Community Devetopment Fund (SPCDF); a federa[ stimutus program that
encourages rurat transition from a tobacco growing market into a non-tobacco based economy. This fund has
attracted substantial interest across Etgin, Brant, Oxford, Middtesex and Norfotk Counties.
For the first time, Etgin Business Resource Centre was presented with a 3-year contract from the program
9n lû¡s 9ssûte,,,
Summer Company. Funded by the Ministry of Economic Devetopment and Trade
(MEDT), this is a wetcomed opportunity for enterprising students to create and
manage their own summer businesses. EBRC was awarded 8 seats for this program
and we exceeded our expectations and saw great success by providing support to
12 students.
EBRC is also an active partner in the Southwestern Ontario Community
Adjustment Fund (SWCAF). This subsidy was created to enhance economic
devetopment and support business projects. Funds are avaitabte in the form of
[oans and non-repayabte contributions to businesses and non-profits. To date,
ERBC has approved over S125,000 toward this community partnership.
ln addition to these programs, EBRC saw an unparatteted increase in loan
activity of 157% from 2008. lt is a testament to how successfu[ and necessary our
contributions are to this area. I am detighted with the perseverance of the ctients
and the staff that has resutted in over ó5 new businesses in Etgin County this year.
Thanks to everyone for their continued support. I look forward to the
chaltenges and achievements that the forthcoming year witt bring.

as a way to bring ñappiness to his work and home [ife. John Wiebe of Emptoyment Services Etgin
recommended the Etgin ausiness Resource Centre and Spencer enrolted in the Setf-Emptoyment
program. Through thã support of Gtenn, his business counsetto6 Spencer learned the importance

"advocatíng socìal, economíc ønd envìronmental balance ín government legislatíon aflectíng land"
OPEN LETTER TO MNR MINISTER CANSFIELI)
The Honorable Donna Cansfield, Minister
Ministry of Natural Resources
Room 6630, rWhitney Block
99 Wellesley Street,'West
Toronto, Ontario, M7A 1W3
December 1,2009
Minister:Re. Conservation Authorities
In its August 18/09 registered letter directed to your attention the Land use Council (LUC) listed
a number of concerns relating to Ontario's Species at Risk Act (ESA 2007). Acknowledgement of that
communication was specifically requested but our records indicate a response has not, in the intervening
three months, ever been received.
Leaving aside what unanswered correspondence says about good manners and common courtesy, we
focus today on growing public unease with excessive power and inflated costs of district Conservation
Authorities. Each of those two core issues is highlighted in the following summations.
1. Contrary to a soothing press release recently issued by the Ottonabee Regional Conservation
Authority (ORCA), the related issues of natural justice and no clemørcy for a 90 year old World War II
veteran, in the matter of Mr. CliffTripp's private land have not been resolved. Instead, an
environmental study has confirmd, ð expected, his property does not pose a threat to an adjacent
wetland. No matter! ORCA has extracted a $300.00 fine from Mr. Tripp while his property continues to
be embargoed against development of anykind, thanks to steadfast ORCA refusal to allow issuance of
municipal building permits thereon. With respect, Madam Minister, we strongly urge your personal
review and intervention in this shameful display of CA inflexibility and bureaucratic insensitivity.
2. Behind the façade of universal support for CA municipal levies and assorted charges lurks the
smoldering resentrnent of many municipal officials which is fueled by staggering increases in those
costs as unilaterally imposed by several CA's. In the eyes of an over-taxed, over-regulated public such
assessments seem less associated with watershed protection than with CA efforts to protect their own
land planning empire exclusive of trained municipal staffalready assigned to that responsibility. Apart
from duplication and bloated costs of multi-level planning, the impact of CA spiraling fees compounded
by escalating CA municipal service charges on house prices is perhaps nowhere better illustrated than in
published comments of Essa Township Mayor David Guergis. Responding to Editor Tony Velti's article
in the November 18 edition of the New Tecumseh Free Press Online, his observations will find, in our
view, a concemed and sympathetic audience among other municipalities in Onta¡io. Meanwhile, they
are enclosed below for your interest and information as a Page 3 "Addendum" to this letter
Correspondence dated December 1, 2009 from Land Use
Council to Minister of Natural Resources regarding "Conservation
Page 71 of 269
Page2
However commendable its intent and objectives, it would appear the Conservation Act is currently
being demeaned by indefensible cost increases made worse, in some instances, by questionable tactics of
at least several district Authorities. Since the incumbent provincial government, including your Ministry
and its related sub-agencies, nevsr tire of promising accountability and transparency, we urge your full
and public endorsement of a transparently independent investigation into local tensions, ballooning costs
and failed public relations now athibuted to some CA's in Ontario.
When defending against allegations of poor public relations and fiscal volatiity, most bureaucratic
tribunals prefer to conduct internal reviews while strongly resisting public ones. However, given present
realities, anything less than a completely independent, non-partisan examination of the performance,
cost and behavior of some dishict CA's would, we submit, likely yield a report lacking in objectivity
and credibility and hence offering no real prospect of long term improvement.
We ask and will appreciate a response to this as well as to previous LUC correspondence at your earliest
convenience.
Yours truly

FROM: Essa Township Mayor David Guergis
TO: Mr. Tony Veltri, Editor, New Tecumseh Free Press On Line
RE: Nottawasaga Regional Conservation Authority (ORCA)
Hi Tony...Just read your story regarding New Tecumseh and NVCA. Should the $627'000
identified in your story not be enough to fund the whofe NVCA planning dept. Illhat
are we thinking about? The $370,000 paid to review one devefopment is crazy. What
would it take to review that proposal, 20 or 30 hours, you can do the math ($ per
hour). Now, who ends up paying? The purchasers of those homes and once they move in.
they can start contributing to the other $226,000 levy through their property tax.
I ask your readers to go onJ-ine and check out the Severn Sound Environmental-
Association providing the same legj-sl-ated service to our northern neighbors at a
fraction of the price. They run the whol-e service (PPS, CA Act) for just a l-ittle
bit more than what the NVCA wiJ-I get out of New Tecumseh this year. Some exarnples of
their levies are Orillia $26,000, Severn $19,000, Penetang $17,000 and they donrt
have the crazy permit fees.
Is it not our job as el-ected officia.l-s to provide quality services at the best
price? In Essa our CA levy has increased 249,82 since the year 2000. If any of our
other departments had increases l-ike that heads woul-d ro.l-l-. Vühy does the CA get a
pass? And as the economy slows the CA's are not getting the outrageous permit fees
they used to so f ask where wil-l- the short fall- be made up? New restrictions with
new fees and increased fevies?
Vlhil-e I have withdrawn my orj-ginal motion asking that the Authority become an
Association I stil-l know it is the riqht thing to do and I woul-d ask the ratepayers
who are funding these massive increases to cal-l- their local- municipal rep and ask
them to at .l-east make an effort to fook at the high quality service being provided
to our northern neighbors at a much, much l-ower cost. Now as f'or the potential
savings at my municipality I would be asking my council to put that money towards
real projects to fix our water shed (erosion, 1og jams, better tree coverage etc. ) .
Vühen you look at the NVCA budqet almost nothing goes to environmental repair (almost
2.5 million in $rages alone).
Most folks do not know that I am a former board member of the NVCA and was there
when in the 90s they ran a deficit of $160,000 + and there was tal-k of getting rid
of them altogether and I was the loudest voice in the room to keep them alive. I
supported them because they swore to not empire bui.l-d and to reduce costs, I was
even approached to sit on the executive but declined because f have seen too many
good reps fall under the spell of the CA. As a matter of fact the guy who was
arguing to get rid of them back then l-ater became the board chair and now supports
anything they do(deficits, levy increases, etc.)
In these economic times we need to reduce taxes. V{e must push our respective
councils to support an independent review, 249.8%íncreases have to be justified. I
thank Mulmur, Oro-Medonte, Mel-ancthon and my ob¡n council in Essa for supporting the
review. ft is on the agenda of other council-s and will be deaft with soon so f
encourage your readers to cal-l their council-lors asap to support the independent
review.

8. Presentations
a) Summary of Municipal Water Managers Report to the Grand River Conservation
Authority Members - Sandra Cooke
Municipal Water Managers Report: Best Practices: Municipal Wastewater Treatment
Plant Bypass and Spill Prevention and Reporting in the Grand River Watershed
The Grand River Conservation Authority received the above noted report on September
14,2009. One of the recommendations from the Grand River Conservation Authority
was that a copy of the report be forwarded to the Láke Erie Region Source Proteition
Committee for their information. S. Gooke provided an overview of the Municipal water
Managers' Report noting objectives and recommendations to improve best practices for
spills and bypasses in the Grand River Watershed. She further noted that the full
Municipal Water Managers report is available at www.grandriver.ca under September
2009 meetings.
* A. Davidson joined the meeting at 1:15.
J. Hanison asked if the City of Brantford was included in the development of the best
practices. S. Cooke responded affirmatively and noted that the report was presented to
the City of Brantford Council, who unanimously supported the report. T. Spiers
concurred that the best practices document was the result of an excellent collaborative
effort.
D. Parker inquired if the list of spills is public knowledge and can be made available on
a regular basis. S. Cooke identified that one of the recommendations in the best
practices document is to improve data collection. lt would be premature to post this
information without improved data collection methods and proper context.
J. Laird asked if all municipalities who feed into the Grand River participated in the
workshop. S. Cooke replied affirmatively.
J. Oliver wondered whether a large number of bypasses and spills do not get recorded
or reported and have therefore not been included in the data used to develop the report.
S. Cooke responded that the number of spills identified in the report were a result of the
best possible information from the Spills Action Centre. The data was used to determine
a broad sense of the causes of spills and bypasses to better identify best practices.
L. Penin asked what percentage of the total volume of spills was high risk. S. Cooke
responded that the data available is not sufficiently accurate to estimate the volume of
high-risk bypasses.
D. Murray advised that the Ministry of the Environment met with some municipalities to
reduce infiltration and inflow, and many municipalities made a ten year commitment
towards reductions.
R. Krueger asked if Water Managers investigated the causes and volume of spills and
bypasses in other watersheds. S. Cooke responded that she does not have any data
from other watersheds and noted that the Ministry of the Environment would have a

held November 5, 2009. File: E00

broader sense of spills and bypasses, however, she suspects the issues would be
similar.
T. Schmidt pointed out that the Region of Waterloo is diligent with spills reporting; other
municipalities, or industries and businesses may not be as stringent with their
processes.
9. Correspondence
a) Copied
i) Conespondence from Jim Hunt, Chair, Trent Conservation Coalition
Source Protection Committee to Source Protection Committee Chairs

M. Goldberg asked if staff have any further information regarding the outcome of the
conespondence. L. Minshall replied that no further information has been distributed,
however staff will follow up.
H. Comwell pointed out that fecal contamination from geese is a large concem, noting
that geese can shed as much or more e-colithan cows.
Res. Ä/o. 45-09 Moved by: G. Rae
Seconded by: L. Perrin carried unanímously
THAT the correspondence be received as information.
10. Reports

H. Waite and M. Shenan presented the results of the Vulnerability, Threats and lssues
analysis for the Brownsville well system.
D. Parker asked what the manure producing opérations were in Brownsville. H. Waite
replied that the manure producing operatíon was a dairy farm. D. Parker expressed
concern regarding the effectiveness and accuracy of windshield survey assessments.
He noted that it was identified that atrazine may result in groundwater and asked if
there are any statistics identifying whether the atrazine is the result of historical or
cunent land use. He asked whether Dichlorophenoxy Acetic Acid was incorrectly noted
in the report as D-2,4. M as opposed to 2,4-D. Shenan responded that the threats and
issues assessment was based on a preliminary assessment. Further details will be
determined during the site specific assessments where uncertainty is high. D. Parker

suggested that households may be applying a higher rate of pesticides to the land than
farmers. He further noted that pesticide bans will affect the figures in years to come.
L. Minshall explained that the process in meant to first look for issues. To date, they
have not discovered any issues in Brownsville that would cause problems. The process
then investigates land use activities and whether they could cause problems. Because
of the timelines for source protection planning the threats and issues identification must
be done through a two-step process. The first step is desktop, and then the process will
start working with property owners to confirm information. Some municipal studies are
further along in this aspect, such as the Region of Waterloo threats census.
H. Comwell expressed concern with the method used to determine livestock density.
He noted that using an air photo interpretation to determine type of barn and apply that
assumption to type of livestock and livestock density is problematic, particularly when
there is no reasonable method to determine to what capacity the bam is being used.
J. Harrison noted that there are sixteen potential threats for commercial fertilizer
identified that do not include farms and asked what type of land use would constitute a
threat for the application of commercial fertilizer. H. Waite responded that it is assumed
that homeowners apply commercial fertilizer to their lawns.
J. Harrison pointed out that a document that has five paragraphs of limitations and data
gaps speaks to the fact that it is not complete, and that a Tier 2 assessment is
necessary.
D. Woolcott suggested that review of the Assessment Reports in their entirety provide
more context on water quality and the types of chemicals that might be found in water
systems throughout the Source Protection Areas. While his intention is not to make
light of the comments, it may prove helpful to consider Brownsville's information in
context of the broader information provided in the assessment report. He confirmed that
there are a lot of gaps in the reports, and that this is the first step.
A. Henry identified that although members are anxious to move forward with the
process, it is important to keep in mind that this is a Tier 1 assessment and there will be
data gaps. The point of this stage of the exercise is to develop a potential list of threats
and see if they pose a risk prior to moving forward with a more in depth Tier 2
assessment.

b) SPC-1 1-09-02 Technical Report Review Process
L. Minshall summarized report SPC-11-09-02 Technical Report Review Process. She
noted that Chris Neville of S.S. Papadopulos and Associates has been asked to review
the remaining reports pertaining to groundwater, and Dr. Hugh Whiteley has agreed to
peer review the remaining reports pertaining to surface water.
A. Henry asked for clarification regarding the regulatory due dates for the Assessment
Reports. L. Minshall confirmed that the Catfish Creek and Kettle Creek Source
Protection Area Assessment Reports are due to the Minister in May 2010. The Grand
River and Long Point Region Source Protection Area Assessment Reportd are due July
2010. A. Henry wondered what the implications would be if the Assessment Reports are
late. L. Minshall replied that if the Lake Erie Region does not meet the due date the
Minister will be disappointed, and it could be embanassing for the region. A. Henry
responded that although the committee should strive to meet the due dates, it is
imperative that the work be done conectly.
M. Goldberg thanked L. Minshall for investigating the sub-working groups in other
Source Protection Regions.
L. Perrin asked if the Lake Erie Region has the budget to undertake the additional peer
review. L. Minshall responded that she has applied to the Ministry of Natural Resources
for additional funds noting that the cost of the this peer review is relatively small in
proportion to the cost of the studies being reviewed.
D. Woolcott stated that he questions the sense in re-reviewing reports, noting that the
Kettle Creek Source Protection Area Assessment Report is supported by numerous
reports that have been reviewed.
R. Krueger advised that he was a student of Dr. Hugh Whiteley and expressed that Dr.
Whiteley is an excellent choice for peer review.

S. Glauser provided an overview of report SPC-10-09-04 Draft of Catfish Creek and
Kettle Creek Source Protectíon Assessment Reports and requested any feedback
members may have on the first draft assessment report.
A. Henry asked if the supporting technical reports are being made available prior to
public consultation for the Assessment Reports. S. Glauser responded that all the
technical reports are being made available before the comment period if the
municipality has released the report for that purpose.

R. Seibel expressed concern regarding including statements and recommendations in
the assessment reports that pertain to general water quality, and not directly to source
protection planning. L. Minshall advised that the source protection planning process
does take into consideration co-benefits with broader water management. Water
quality conditions and trends and watershed characterization are important to overall
water quality. Although general water quality policy in a document for source protection
planning would not be binding, the committee can make enabling policies for partners
in the watershed that relate to broader co-benefits.
W. Wright-Cascaden noted that she thought the repod was very readable, and that the
average reader would be benefitted by the executive summary, which is still to be
developed. She identified that the conclusions component may be best approached as
a summary. She further suggested a smaller summary section at the end of each
section. This would summarize the key information without forcing the public to read
the entire document. lf readers would like to further investigate the background
information, they can go into the pertinent section of the document for further
information.
D. Parker noted high nitrate and phosphorus levels and asked if there are any old
cottages along Kettle Creek. T. Marks responded that there are not many. D. Parker
asked if the high bacteria pathogen level below St. Thomas implies a problem with
spills in St. Thomas. L. Penin responded that St. Thomas is like many other municipal
cities. They have old infrastructure and some issues with combined sewers; however,
they are making great strides in improving their system and are working diligently to
reduce overflows. L. Penin noted the best practices developed in the Grand River
Watershed and advised that he intends to take this information to Kettle Creek and
Catfish Creek Watersheds.
J. Oliver observed that non-municipal drinking water systems, although identified as a
data gap, will be included Ín the document. He asked what purpose it will serve to list
non-municipal systems and expressed concem about having such systems identified.
S. Glauser responded that the regulation requires that non-municipal systems be listed
and suggested that it may relate to the issues evaluation process. M. Keller advised
further that the Ministry would like non-municipal systems listed so that there is a
complete account of systems. S. Glauser identified that list is cunently identified as a
data gap because it is being refined by the Health Units; there are currently too many
uncertainties with the data to include it in a document. J. Oliver suggested including a
rationale for the lists' inclusion in the document.
J. Hanison noted that he is of the opinion that non-municipal systems should be
included as part of this process noting that there are systems in Long Point Region
that serve more people than Brownsville and they are not being assessed.
J. Hanison further noted that although the síze of the document was intimidating, and
expects that the Grand River Source Protection Area Assessment Report will be even
more so, generally speaking the document is readable. He did note, however, that
there remain some paragraphs that are quite technical and not easily understood. lf
the objective is to receive public feedback, readability is vital.

L Macdonald concurred that the document was well written, pointing out the
importance of including the technical details for those who want it, but common
language summaries for those who prefer an overview.
A. Henry noted that section on climate change did not provide a lot of information with
regards to sedimentation loading, noting that this information is particularly pertinent
for Kettle Creek with its slope and tendency for high sediment loading. Further, he
noted Lake Erie has a significant shoreline erosion rate, and observed that there was
not a lot of discussion pertaining to erosion rates due to climate change. He asked if
this is a data gap, and if it is expected that this will be addressed in future. L. Minshall
responded that the section was written based on a broad literatúre review. Staff will
look for more information pertaining to sediment loading.
R. Seibel asked if the electronic version of the document could be provided on the
screen for future meetings so members can see the sections to which the discussion
refers.
Members were advised that the first draft of the Catfish Creek Source Protection Area
Assessment Report will be sent by November 13, and asked that members send any
comments on both Kettle Creek and Catfish Creek at their earliest convenience to

DEER COLLISIONS UP IN SEPTEMBER. OCTOBER. NOVEMBER
Elgin County OPP continues to encourage the motoring public to take care when driving
at night and watch for deer as we've seen an increase in collisions over the last three
months. Driving the speed limit, using your high beams and watching for movement
along the shoulders and ditches can help in preventing a collision. Signs have been
posted on county roads throughout Elgin County in key locations where deer commonly
cross, so please stay alert.

Subjecü Elgin OPP Speed Trailer Making the Rounds
FROM/DE: ELGIN COUNTY OPP
DATE:10DEC09
SPEED TRAILER MAKING THE ROUNDS
(ELGIN COUNTY) - As part of Elgin Gounty OPP Traffic Management Strategy
the mobile speed trailer is making its rounds through-out Elgin County. Acquired
over the summer through a grant from Attorney Generals Civil Remedies Grant
program the trailer uses an onboard speed radar (much like that in police cars)
along with a large L.E.D. display board to display the vehicles speed along with a
message to the motoring public. The message if the vehicle is travelling below
the speed limit is "Thanks for NOT speeding" if the vehicle is speeding then the
sign displays "SLOW DOWN!'and displays the vehicles speed. The trailer is set
to not display speeds over 99km/hr so that the sign can't be used by racers to
see how face their vehicle can go.
The trailer also has the capability of recording the number of vehicles, speeds
and times which when anal¡aed allows police to take a more targeted approach
to an area by seeing what time of day the traffic volume is highest or if there is a
particular time of day when motorists speed.
The trailer will be set up primarily in built up areas such as in towns, villages or
hamlets throughout Elgin County. lf there is a particular area of concern in your
community please contact the Eglin County OPP Community Services Officer.
Considerations for requesting the trailer and its placement;
. Can the trailer be placed in a well lit area built up area so that the trailer is
not vandalized and it appears that it is being monitored?. ls it being placed on a roadway with a high volume of traffic where its
visibility will create talk within the community about speeding issues?. ls there an area to place the trailer so that it does not interfere with traffic
such as a wide shoulder or driveway?. Will the trailer interfere with drivers views when pulling out of driveways or
side streets as to create a traffìc hazard?. W¡l¡the trailer interfere with snow removal or become a traffic hazard in
inclement weather?
Once a suitable location has been determined and the weather and road
conditions or safe for deployment, the trailer will be set-up at the selected
location by an OPP officer for approximately two days. Traffic enforcement will

R.l.D.E. - AN\1/VHERE. ANYTIME
(ELGIN COUNTY) - Motorists may be surprised to be stopped at 7am at a local R.|.D.E.
program and be wondering why police are out a such an odd time of day asking if you've
been drinking. While the majority of impaired drivers are arrested in the evening and the
hours just after midnight police do find people driving impaired in the morning. Whether
be after a night of celebration and now driving into work or after staying over at a friends
and now driving home, motorists may not be sober enough to be driving. "People are
doing the right things by not driving home drunk and instead are choosing to take a cab,
using a designated driver or staying at a friend's house. The problem is when they wake
up early and feel it's now ok to drive because they've slept a bit. The fact still remains
that having only a few hours of sleep may not be enough to sober you up and you may
still be impaired. Getting caught by the police may be the least of your worries if you end
up killing someone in a motor vehicle collision! Don't;just plan for the evening, plan
ahead for the next day as well." Stated lnspector Ryan Cox, Elgin County OPP
Detachment Commander.
There are many myths about how to sober up more quickly;
o Drinking Black Coffee: Caffeine will not help your liver metabolize alcohol, and
neither will any of the other ingredients in coffee. Drinking coffee while drunk may
actually have a negative effect: you may feel more alert and capable of dríving when,
in fact, you're still impaired.
. Taking a Gold Shower: Unless your liver hops out and takes a shower with you,
this will have no effect on your level of drunkenness. Like drinking caffeinated
beverages, though, it could give you a false sense of alertness.
o Getting some Fresh Air: Like taking a cold shower, this may make you feel better -
and even less impaired - but it has absolutely no effect on your blood alcohol content
(BAC) or liver.
o Exercising: While exercise does help the body eliminate some alcohol through
sweating and breathing, the amount is negligible and won't affect your BAC. In fact,

because alcohol impairs motor skills, a drunk person engaging in vigorous exercise
may actually end up hurting him- or herself by falling or bumping into something.
o Eating Food: Eating before you begin drinking can slow the absorption of alcohol
into your bloodstream, but eating after you drink will have zero effect on your
drunkenness.
. Drinking Lots of Water: Drinking litres of water once you're bombed will not make
you okay to drive home; however, alternating a glass of water with a glass of alcohol
throughout the night may help you consume less alcohol.
As said before these are only myths; the only truth is that it takes time for your body to
process and eliminate the alcohol.

Elgin County OPP is asking for the public's assistance in identifying the suspect or suspect

On Tuesday the 8h of December 2OOg between 4:30pm and 5:00pm a 15year female
reported to police that she was walking on the south side of the road westbound on Main
St. E., in West Lome in Elgin County when a white "boxy" type vehicle passed her location
eastbound. A few minutes later she observed the same vehicle passing her now traveling
westbound at a slow rate of speed. The vehicle then turned into the apartment building

STAFF REPORT
TO: Mayor & Members of Council
FROM : Planning Coordinator/Deputy Clerk
SUBJECT: Blondeel Rezoning - Lot Addition
Public Meeting Dec.l7l09 7:30pm
DATE: December II,2009
FILE: Dl4.BLON
NUMBERzD2009-44
Purpose
To consider rezoning application and draft ZoningBy-law 2574-2009.
Background
On October 15,2009 Council considered and supported a consent application submitted by Blondeel
Nursery Inc. proposing a minor boundary adjustment to sever a parcel 0.71 hectares (1.75 acre) from
lands in Concession 6 STR Part Lot 124, east side Plank Road, north of Jackson Line to add to the
adjacent rural residential property owned by Siegfried and Margaret Blondeel.
Purpose and Effect of the Rezoning
The purpose of the amendment is to change the zoning on a parcel of land from the rural Residential
(RR) to the site-specific Rural Residential (RR-15) zoneinZoningBy-lawNo.2456-2003. Rezoning
of the lands is a condition of approval by the Elgin County Land Division Committee associated with
Consent Application E58/09 granted approval October 21,2009.
The effect of the amendment would be to permit the severance as a minor boundary adjustment
permitted by the Provincial Policy Statement 2005 and in accordance with the land division policies of
the Offrcial Plan. The zoning would incorporate the existing rural residential property and the merged
portion to permit a small complement of livestock (maximum equivalent of three nutrient units) on the
lands in addition to all other uses permitted in the RR Zone.
Staff & Planner Comments
The zoning limitation on the number of nutrient units is acceptable to the applicant as it was discussed
previously at the time of the consent application. Staff and the planner are supportive of the zoning.
At the time of writing this report, no public written comments have been received opposing the application.

FROM: Planning Coordinator/Deputy Clerk
SUBJECT: Otter's Edge Estates/Jammie Underhill Farms Rezoning
Second Public Meeting Dec.l7l09 7:40pm
DATE: December 17,2009
FILE: Dl4.OTTR
NUMBER: D2009-45
Purpose
To consider rezoning application submitted by Otter's Edge Estates Ltd. and Jammie Underhill Farms
Ltd.
Background
On January 15,2009, Council considered and supported a consent application submitted by Jammie
Underhill Farms Ltd. proposing to sever a parcel of land to add to the adjacent property, Otter's Edge
Estates Ltd. The consent application subject lands are located in Concession2Part Lots 1l & 12,west
side Plank Road. Elgin County Land Division Committee granted the application on February 4,2009.
Rezoning is a condition of the consent.
On July 16,2009 Council considered the rezoning application at the first public meeting and deferred
the application for fuither information. The outstanding required information included additional
documented written proof to support the legal non-conforming status of the area in Lot 12 and details
of the existing servicing of the seasonal trailer park.
Purpose and Effect of the Rezoning
The purpose of the amendment is to change the zoning on a 5.9 hectare (14.5 acre) parcel of land
situated on the west side of Plank Road, north of Glen Erie Line, in Part Lot 12 &,13, Concession 2
from the Agricultural (41) Zone andthe Special Agricultural (A2) Zoneto a site-specific Agricultural
(Al-##) Zone in our Zoning By-law 2456-2003.
The effect of the amendment would be to accommodate the severance of that portion of the subject
lands in Part Lot 12 to be conveyed to the lands in Part Lot 13 and subsequently recognize an existing
seasonal travel trailer park and campground as an additional permitted use in accordance with the
"Non-conforming lJses" policies of the Official Plan. Additional zoningregulations will limit the
number of seasonal travel trailer sites, buildings, and structures to those that existed in accordance with
the Offrcial Plan and that arry new development will require a site plan agreement.
Municipal Comments
Several discussions have taken place amongst staff, applicant, planner and conservation authority
regarding additional information required for the rezoning. Issues discussed and in need of resolve
included: establishing the 10O-year flood line, legal non-conforming status of Lot 12 and servicing.
After discussions with LPRCA, the applicant retained the services of Spriet Associates, who prepared a
"Floodline Mapping" report. LPRCA requested this report to determine the 100-year flood line along
the Big Otter Creek whereby determining the number, if any, of trailers located within that flood line.
Staff Report D2009-45 regarding Otter's Edge Estates / Jammie
Underhill Farms Rezoning. File: D14.OTTR
Page 111 of 269
Staff ReportD2009-45 Otter's Edge/Jammie Underhill Farms Page2
In briet the report indicates that the site locations of the trailers in Lot 12 are above the 100-year flood
elevation. The attached LPRCA Memo dated December 10, 2009 outlines their comments on the
Spriet report and states that they do not object to the rezoning application.
Regarding the legal non-conforming status, the applicant provided additional statements from previous
owners of the property supporting the applicants' claim that the area in Lot 12 has been used as
seasonal camping in one form or another for a substantial number of years, predating planning policy
requirements. The planner is supportive of the status of legal non-conforming for the area subject to
consent located inLot 12.
The servicing, both water and septic disposal, has been an expressed concern of the municipality from
the start of the rezoning process. The property is serviced with municipal water and metered at the
Plank Road entrance. The majority of the existing seasonal trailers are connected to holding tanks. At
the municipality's request, the applicant contacted the Ministry of Environment (MOE) to find out
what, if any, requirements there are for private septic systems (holding tanks) servicing the seasonal
trailer park. It was determined that a Certificate of Approval is required and Mr. Underhill will be
working with the MOE to obtain the approval. The process is expected to take several months to
complete.
Considering the zoning is a condition of a consent application that will expire on February 4,2010,the
applicant is anxious for the zoning to be approved. The applicant acknowledges that the MOE
approval is outstanding and suggests that the provided "Letter of Undertaking" (draft available at time
of writing), stating that the approval will be obtained, will give Council the assurance to approve the
zoningat this time.
Staff and the planner are acceptable to the "Letter of Undertaking" and are satisfied the servicing will
be addressed properly; the Floodline Mapping report satisfies the LPRCA concems; and the legal non-
conforming status has been supported through documentation. Therefore, staff and planner would
recommend the rezoning of the subject lands.
At the time of writing this report, no written comments from the public have been received regarding
the application.

OTTER'S EDGE TRAILER PARK
FLOODLINE MAPPING
BIG OTTER CREEK
INTRODUCTION
This study was prepared to satisfy a condition of rezoning for the expansion of the Otter's
Edge Trailer Park located in the Municipality of Bayham. lts purpose is to determine the location
of the limits of the 100 year flood plain with respect to the new park.
WATERSH ED CHARACTERISTICS
The Big Otter Creek watershed upstream of the park is approximately 712 km2 in size and
drains large portions of Elgin, Oxford and Norfolk Counties including the Towns of Tillsonburg,
Nonrvich, Courtland and others. The lands are predominantly farm lands with the majority of the
soil type being classified as Sand Plain. There are also significant amounts of Till Moraine and Till
Plain within the watershed area with these soil types being found in the upstream reaches.
The longest defined watenray within the watershed is approximately 101 km long with its
slope upstream of Tillsonburg being approximately 0.14o/o compared to a very flat grade of
approximately 0.08% downstream of Tillsonburg.
FLOOD PLAIN ANALYSIS
The flood plain elevations for the 100 year storm were determined by first calculating the
creek flows using the Modified lndex Flood Method as outlined in the M.T.O. Drainage Manual.
This method is designed for large watershed and is based on regionalfrequency analysis. lt has
been modified for Ontario conditions from the original lndex Flood Method.
Using the above method and the soils maps for the watershed area, we determined the
average Land Use Curve Number (CN) to be approximately 73, with the average watershed slope
being 0.1o/o and the upstream watershed area being712.93 km2. Based on these numbers we
calculated the estimated 100 year storm flow to be 260m3/s (see attached calculations). This flow
appears to be reasonable as a 1979 report by James. F. Maclaren indicates the flows in Vienna
downstream of the second tributary are estimated to be 291m3/s, which is within 12To of our
calculated flow. (See attached 1993 fax from Long Point Region Conservation Authority).
Staff Report D2009-45 regarding Otter's Edge Estates / Jammie
Underhill Farms Rezoning. File: D14.OTTR
Page 123 of 269
FLOOD PLAIN ANALYSIS (cont'd)
The flood plain elevations within the new portion of the trailer park were determined by
taking cross-sections through the channel and adjacent banks and determining the water elevation
based on the 100 year storm. Elevations were calculated at three locations and are as follows.
(Back-up data is shown in Appendix'A')'
Upstream Section
Middle Section
Downstream Section
-2-
100 year elevation
177.25
177.28
177.20
These elevations are indicated on the attached plan along with the Trailer locations
indicating that none of them are located within the 100 year storm flood plain.
SUMMARY
ln closing, we believe the estimated 100 year storm flow and subsequent flood plain
elevations provide a reasonable estimate of the realworld conditions and prove the Trailers are not
within the flood plain. The elevations back up the visual field observation that the north bank of the
Big otter creek contains more flood plain as it is generally lower.

FROM: Administrator FILE: T D ?
SUBJECT: Road Closure Application - Concession 5 and South Gore
This Memorandum is to further consider closing and conveying a portion of the unopened road
allowance between Concession 5 and Concession South Gore in Lots l, 2, and3.
At the previous Council meeting of December 3, 2009, Council considered the above mentioned
road closure application, and gave first reading to By-law No. 2009-134. At that meeting, it was
indicated that the applicant would abandon the closure of Part 4, Plan l1R-9100, due to the impacts
on abutting property owned by Robert and Rosina \Mhite. Mr. White had supplied a letter to
Council outlining the concern.
Subsequent to the meeting, the applicant (Mr. John S/alker) and Mr. White have held further
discussions, and the attachedjoint letter has been received (attached). The letter requests that each
obtain one-half of the portion of the subject road allowance in Lot I (westerly of Richmond Road).
Staff have amended ByJaw No. 2009-134 accordingly to implement this request.

CORPORATION OF THE MUNICIPALITY OF BAYHAM
STAFF REPORT
TO: Mayor & Members of Council DATE: December 14,2009
FROM: Suzanna Dieleman Mantel, CGA FILE:
SUBJECT: Water Infrastructure Project NUMBERzE2009-14
Purpose
To award the contract for the construction of the water infrastructure renewal project -
Vienna phase.
Background
Tenders were issued June 30, 2009 for the construction of the water infrastructure
renewal project. Bids were received and reviewed July 15,2009.
The tenders call for pricing for the Port Burwell distribution system only with the right to
reserve the same pricing into 2010 for the Vienna distribution system. This will,
hopefully, eliminate the need to re-tender for Vienna but allows the municipality some
flexibility to do exactly that should council deem it necessary.
Discussion
Staff have received the pricing for Vienna from the current contractor. Prices are similar
but not exactly the same as the Port Burwell pricing. This reflects the inclusion of
previous credits into the actual unit pricing as well as some adjustments to a few items to
better reflect the work required.
Staff originally extrapolated the Port Burwell tender prices to the Vienna system and
estimated it at $920,000. The tender provided by Omega totals 5924,545.50. There are a
number of provisional items in both the Port Burwell and Vienna tenders that we will
hopefully not require.
Financing of the municipality's portion of the project will be brought to council early in
20t0.
Strategic Plan Goal:
Goal #l - Practice responsible financial management.
GoaI#2 - Ensure reliable, well-maintained and secure infrastructure.
