16. ADJOURNMENT
In spring of 2017 the ball diamond fence was redone and in doing so it affected the space that
could be utilized by Watermelon Fest.
Prior to 2017 we used to open the fence on the west side, which you would have had no
knowledge of, in order for the rides and food vendors to set up on the grass on the front
diamond. Once the new fencing was put up that was no longer possible. We are not able to just
unhook the fencing and fold a section of it back to make an entrance on the west side.
In 2017 we made due with the space we were able to use as alot of the vendors were not able to
make the turn to get inside the ball diamond gate on the east side so most things were relocated
to the back ball diamond.
In 2018 we thought we might be able to utilize the front ball diamond space better as we could
plan ahead but that meant any vendors that we wanted to place inside the front ball diamond had
to be hear before 7am on the morning of Watermelon Fest or come in on Friday night. This
would have incurred extra cost for the committee(security) for the extra time the vendors were
here and we so we didn't do that.
So this letter is a request to have a gate put in the west side ball fence just south of the existing
gate on the west side to allow access to the inside field of the front ball diamond for future use.
Our committee, the Straffordville Community Committee, would be able to assist in the cost of
installing the gate as we may the most advantage out of it for Watermelon Fest.

Request for Letter of Support for ALUS Bill
Dear stakeholder:
Over the summer, I introduced a Private Members Bill in the Ontario Legislature titled,An Act
respecting a voluntary program for the alternate use of agricultural land and the production of
ecosystem services on that land.The bill passed first reading and will come back very soon for second
reading.
This proposed legislation is essentially a statement of support for the concepts and principles of setting
aside marginal land. The bill recognizes owners of land who wish to support these goals by participating
in voluntary, farmer/landowner-led, incentive-based programs with the objective of creating clean air,
clean water, healthy soil, adaptation to climate change and the creation of wildlife habitat.For instance,
the proposed legislation recognizes landowners who restore wetlands,reforest,plant windbreaks, install -
riparian buffers, and build sustainable drainage systems. It supports the principles of ALUS Canada, for
example, but is also a broader statement of support for the work of many other similar initiatives.
It's necessary to garner support for the bill, both within and outside Ontario Legislature. I want to
demonstrate there is widespread support for the concept and I am looking for letters of support. With the
Ontario Legislature going back earlier than expected,my bill could come up very soon. I am hoping you
can write a letter of support for the concept the bill is promoting.
As well,please offer suggestions on how we can improve on and promote the concepts of alternative land
usage. A copy of the legislation is attached,plus several of my newspaper columns on the subject.
If possible,I hope to hear back from you by Wednesday, Sept. 19.
Thank you,

Alternate land use services
a win for all involved
By MPP Toby Barrett
In recent years farmers have taken leadership in an area where politicians have been slow to act. Or
where they have acted,it has been to burden farmers,ranchers and property owners with
bureaucratic rules and regulations.
The diverse nature of the rural landscape has been recognized for years.
In Europe,agricultural policies help ensure farmers are compensated for the services they provide
for the whole of society in managing,conserving and enhancing the rural and natural environment.
In the United States,millions of acres of fragile farmland has been retired by paying landowners to
"grass them down"through the Conservation Reserve Program.
Meanwhile, in Ontario,bureaucrats and politicians have sought to protect the environment,all too
often by saddling farmers with restrictions and red tape that prevents them from using their land to
its full potential.
In contrast to this approach over the past 15 years,landowners,as well as farm and wildlife
organizations,have developed a plan that rewards producers for being responsible stewards of the
land.
It puts the farmer in the driver's seat and promises a well-managed and protected environment at a
reasonable cost to all concerned.
It's called ALUS and it stands for Alternative Land Use Services.
ALUS was first developed in 2000 by Manitoba's Keystone Agricultural Producers and Delta
Waterfowl and has gained significant support from farm organizations, outdoors groups,
philanthropists,governments and other stakeholders.
ALUS is "the farmer's conservation program" -- it links the environmental demands of society with
farmers who supply environmental services -something that few programs in this country do. It's a
voluntary,farmer-led,incentive-based method of recognizing and rewarding property owners for
maintaining, creating or enhancing environmental benefits.
Following a pilot to test ALUS in Blanshard, Manitoba from 2006 to 2009, and then another in
Norfolk County,the Ontario principles behind ALUS were tested in the field.The goal was to
motivate farmers to preserve and protect natural and fragile areas of land that have lower
agricultural values,but can provide environmental benefits.
Dave Reid,formerly with the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry and Norfolk Land
Stewardship Coordinator,embraced the ALUS concept and brought it to Norfolk.He developed the
concept of the Partnership Advisory Committee that keeps farmers connected to ALUS and to the
community.
Prince Edward Island adopted ALUS early on following a meeting in Norfolk County.It became a
provincial program in 2008.Since then,ALUS has been established in more than 20 communities
across Manitoba,Saskatchewan,Alberta and Quebec.
Market-based incentives can preserve habitat.
"A market-friendly environmental philosophy emphasizes results,not process," wrote
Conservative MP Bob Sopuck in his former role with Delta Waterfowl."Activists love the current
bureaucratic style of endless hearings based on ridiculously broad terms of reference and the free
media coverage they generate."
As one of the original developers of ALUS,Sopuck believes bottom-up incentives work far better
than top-down planning and regulation."It acknowledges the stewardship efforts of resource users
like farmers,trappers,hunters,anglers and loggers by designing incentive-based policies that
reward good works."
By recognizing their potential contribution,the concept of ALUS empowers agricultural producers
and rural communities to take the lead in environmental stewardship.

Aram ro to helpa riculture
p g g
andp rotect wildlife
By MPP Toby Barrett
In a crowded world of seven billion people, human activity has significantly degraded our
surroundings.
Increasingly,we see the need for measures ranging from flood mitigation and wetland
protection, to wildlife habitat and biodiversity, carbon sequestration and the reduction of
phosphorus in our lakes.
All too often, rules and regulations and more laws and enforcement have been the
response, with mixed, and less than adequate results.
There is another approach - one that is incentive-based,voluntary and market-driven. We
see it exemplified, for example, in the U.S. Conservation Reserve Program, in Britain's
Environmental Stewardship Scheme, and in Canada's growing ALUS initiative.
ALUS Canada traces its roots to rural Manitoba,where farmers and duck hunters worked
together through Delta Waterfowl and the Keystone Agricultural Producers on practical,
farmer-led projects to set aside land for habitat.
One thousand miles, as the duck flies, southeast of the Manitoba potholes we saw the
inauguration of an Ontario pilot project on the Norfolk sand plain - an ALUS initiation that
now involves 10 per cent of the county's farms.
Today, Canada's ALUS program is a national non-profit charity dedicated to helping
agriculture, and protecting wildlife.ALUS, short for Alternative Land Use Services, helps
farmers and ranchers protect and restore wetlands and flood plains, plant trees and
windbreaks, restore native prairie and sustain drainage systems.
With help from ALUS, landowners can improve air and water quality, soil health, erosion,
phosphorus and flood mitigation, climate adaptation, carbon sequestration and support
species-at-risk habitat.
ALUS provides per-acre annual payments to farmers and ranchers to "recognize their
dedication to managing and maintaining projects on their land". In general, no more than
20 per cent of a farmer or rancher's workable land can be enrolled in the ALUS program,
through exceptions have been made.
The principal sponsor of ALUS is the W. Garfield Weston Foundation. Delta Waterfowl is a
foundational partner. Other funders include: David Bissett, the J.W. McConnell Family
Foundation,Alberta Real Estate Foundation, Carthy Foundation and Ontario Nature.
Support also comes from the Ontario government, including the Trillium Foundation,
federal and municipal governments.
ALUS is in some ways unique as it is an alternative to permanent procurement of
conservation areas through land purchases and conservation easements. There are
programs operating in Canada and internationally that have similar aims.
For instance,the Nature Conservancy of Canada accepts donations of land, and works with
landowners to arrive at the optimal means of using their land for ecological benefit.
Donations of land may qualify for as an ecological gift by Environment and Climate Change
Canada, which provides tax benefits to donors.
The American Conservation Reserve Program, established by the 1985 Farm Bill pays a
yearly rental in exchange for removing environmentally-sensitive land from agricultural
production and planting species that will improve environmental quality. The US
Partnership for Conservation is involved in the permanent conservation of land and
formulates best practices for its members to follow. The United Kingdom's Environmental
Stewardship Scheme, launched in 2005, offers financial incentives to landholders who
deliver effective environmental management on their land.
And now the stage has been set for wider adoption of ALUS across Canada
The program currently operates in 19 communities in six Canadian provinces: Alberta,
Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Ontario, Quebec, and Prince Edward Island. There are now seven
ALUS chapters in Ontario.

A bill to support alternate land use and services
By MPP Toby Barrett
This past summer I developed and introduced a Private Members Bill titled,An Act respecting a
voluntary program for the alternate use of agricultural land and the production of ecosystem services on
that land.
The proposed legislation recognizes the right of owners of agricultural land to set aside,voluntarily, any
part of the land as fallow for either of the following two purposes: to establish,restore or preserve a
natural ecosystem and to establish and maintain projects that produce services for natural ecosystems.
Natural ecosystems are essential for the survival of plants and animals. In Ontario, and throughout much
of the world,natural ecosystems are disappearing.
As humans,we also have an intimate relationship with the land on which we live and are bound to the
earth. From it,we derive necessities of food, shelter and clothing. From the materials of the earth we have
always derived, and will continue to derive,the tools and products to maintain our existence.
Owners of agricultural land, and other property owners, can contribute to the establishment,restoration,
and preservation of natural ecosystems. This proposed legislation is essentially a statement of support for
the concepts and principles of setting aside marginal land. The bill recognizes owners of land who wish to
support these goals by participating in voluntary, farmer/landowner-led,incentive-based program on two
fronts.
Firstly,they can set aside part of their land for that purpose. For example,they can restore wetlands,
reforest,plant windbreaks, install riparian buffers,build sustainable drainage systems, create wildlife
habitats and establish other ecologically beneficial projects on their land.
Secondly,they can use their land to establish and maintain projects that produce ecosystem services.
Those services are the things that are produced by healthy natural ecosystems and on which all-living
beings,whether human life, animal life or plant life,rely. They include clean air,clean water,healthy soil,
flood mitigation, climate adaptation, carbon sequestration and wildlife habitats.
If this proposed legislation becomes law,the Minister of Natural Resources and Forestry has 12 months to
develop a provincial framework and action plan that does things such as the following. It can provide
guidelines on how land can be used for those purposes,provide for the government to create and
distribute standardized education materials on those guidelines,promote research into those uses of
agricultural land,promote the holding of international symposia on those uses, and encourage fundraising
for those uses and those symposia.
The Minister can amend the provincial framework and action plan to update it, as the Minister considers
advisable.
This is important. Any legislation such as this must remain flexible and up-to-date—we live in rapidly
changing times of not only new knowledge but also new understandings of knowledge—whether that
knowledge is new or old.
Facts are needed to answer questions and develop new approaches to a host of environmental issues that
range from soil degradation to loss of diversity to phosphorus loading to changes in climate.
Hence,the importance of on-the-ground experience, evidence-based research, and the working-together
of all concerned to accomplish practical, common sense results. Government doesn't have all the answers.
It is hoped this Ontario legislation can contribute to the underlying principles and objectives of the
original farmer-driven, duck hunter-driven,habitat restoration ALUS approach first hatched in rural
Manitoba.

SPEED LIMIT ASSESSMENT POLICY
Section 1 - Overview
1.1 The Municipality of Bayham sets speed limits in accordance with the Highway
Traffic Act, R.S.O. 1990, c. H.8 with default speed limits being:
i. 50 kilometres per hour on a highway within a built-up area;
ii. 80 kilometres per hour on a highway, not within a built-up area.
1.2 The Municipality of Bayham road network is a dynamic system. The critical
parameters of roadside environment, road geometry, adjacent land use and access
frequency are considered when establishing a speed zone. Generally accepted
justifications for speed limit revisions include:
i. Changing Land Use - Urbanization resulting from new development and
infrastructure can include changing land uses and traffic patterns along the
road corridor. When communities are built adjacent to roads, operating
conditions of these roads may change to reflect increases in volumes,
intersections, driveway connections, turning movements, pedestrians,
cyclists and transit activities.
ii. Promoting Consistent Speed Limits - Speed limits that change frequently
within short distances on the same road can result in driver confusion and
low compliance of speed limits. Limiting the number of speed zone changes
encourages driver compliance.
iii. Improving Traffic Operations - Credible speed limits that match driver
expectations for a given roadway and its surrounding area improve traffic
operations, increase speed limit compliance, provide a clear reminder to
violators and reduce arbitrary enforcement and conviction tolerances. With
the appropriate posted speed limit, the amount of time drivers have to react
to potential hazards is also increased.
1.3 The intent of the Municipality of Bayham Speed Limit Assessment Procedure is to
maintain speed limits on Municipality of Bayham roads that promote public safety
and have a reasonable expectation of driver adherence.
Section 2—Application
2.1 The Municipality of Bayham Speed Limit Assessment Policy shall be applicable to
all roads under the jurisdiction of the Municipality of Bayham within the Municipality
of Bayham.
2.2 Elgin County shall be responsible for all speed limit alteration requests for all roads
under the jurisdiction of Elgin County within the Municipality of Bayham.
i. The Municipality of Bayham shall refer all speed limit alteration requests to
the Elgin County Director of Engineering Services for consideration.
Section 3 — Procedure
3.1 Upon receipt of a written request for a speed limit alteration, the Road Operations
Supervisor will:
i. Receive the request for information and take no action; or
ii. Conduct a Speed Limit Assessment pursuant to the Municipality of
Bayham Speed Limit Assessment Policy and:
a. Take no action and the speed limit remains unchanged; or
b. Extend or modify the limits of a built-up area' or 'not within a built-
up area' and sign accordingly; or
c. Make recommendation to Council to modify the posted rate of speed
on a subject section of road by by-law.
3.2 All decisions of the Road Operations Supervisor may be appealed to and
considered by Council.
i. A person must submit a request in writing for Council to consider an
appeal. The written request must be submitted in accordance with the
Municipality of Bayham Procedural By-law.
Section 4 — Speed Limit Assessment Policy
4.1 The Municipality of Bayham sets speed limits in accordance with the Highway
Traffic Act, R.S.O. 1990, c. H.8 with default speed limits being:
i. 50 kilometres per hour on a highway within a built-up area;
ii. 80 kilometres per hour on a highway, not within a built-up area.
4.2 The Municipality of Bayham road network is monitored through road patrols and
biennial traffic counts to determine Average Annual Daily Traffic (AADT).
4.3 Where speed limit alterations are requested the Road Operations Supervisor will
assess the speed limit based upon setting a posted speed limit at or near the 85th
percentile speed based on actual measurements of the highway operating speed or
as indicated in the Highway Traffic Act. The 85th percentile speed is the speed at
which 85% of the vehicles are travelling at or below.
4.4 The consideration of a speed limit at or near the 85th percentile speed is supported
by external traffic engineering studies regarding driver behaviour, which have
proven the following:
i. Drivers tend to drive at a speed that they feel comfortable based on
roadway geometrics and roadside development;
ii. Setting the posted speed limit at the 85th percentile speed will generally
result in a low dispersion in the travel speeds in the traffic stream;
iii. Lowering the posted speed limit has little effect on the long term operating
speed;
iv. A posted speed limit that is set too low will result in a significant number of
reasonable drivers operating illegally, place unnecessary burdens on law
enforcement personnel and lead to a lack of credibility of the posted speed
limit and results in unsafe conditions due to differential vehicle speeds and
the creation of overtaking manoeuvres.
v. Setting speed limits consistent with road characteristics and surrounding
environments encourages compliance and improves traffic operations.
Section 5— Hidden Driveway Signage
5.1 Hidden Driveway Signage requests will be assessed by the Road Operations
Supervisor.
5.2 Where the Road Operations Supervisor determines a Hidden Driveway Sign may
be applicable the Hidden Driveway Sign shall be installed by the Public Works
Department at the expense of the applicant.
5.3 Future maintenance and/or replacement of the subject Hidden Driveway Signage
will be the responsibility and expense of the Municipality of Bayham.
