Attention: The Honourable Neil Craig, Mayor and Council Members
Dear Mr. Mayor and Members of Council,
On behalf of the Orillia Public Library, I would once again like to thank you for your
support of Tim Crawford and the Histoz Committee ofOro-Medonte. Tim was the
Library's guest speaker on February 24 , in celebration of Black History Month. This is
the second time that Tim has come to the aid of the Library, "in a pinch".
Tim's knowledge of the early Black settlers and the Church is certainly very impressive.
As he described the settlers building, and worshipping in their Church, the audience
could almost visualize those hard working pioneers, and the hardships they faced. The
presentation, that was ex1remely well attended, taught us many amazing things that day.
At the end ofthe presentation, we were all very moved by a poem that Tim read ITom
his book. The poem was written by E..C. Drury as a tribute to those early Black
residents. It brought tears to several of our pa1rons' eyes.
I sincerely feel that Black History Month is not recognized enough, and that the story of
the Black settlers in Oro should be taught in the schools. We should be very proud of all
the people who settled here, including pioneers of a different colour. I would like to
suggest that all the schools in Simcoe County be encouraged to invite Tim Crawford to
speak to their students, so that they may gain knowledge of this important time period in
our local history. An appropriate time for this might be during February, which is Black
History Month.

Thank you for taking the time to read this letter, and for supporting the History
Committee.

Dept. Report No. To: Prepared By:
PD 2004-06 Council Andria Leigh, RPP
Senior Planner
Subject: Department:
Council
Proposed Extension of Draft Planning
C.ofW. Plan Approval for Horseshoe
Resort Corporation Part of Lot
2 and 3, Concession 4 (Oro)
43-0M-20001 Date:
Motion # March 8, 2004
R.M. File No.
Date: D12 010864
II BACKGROUND:
1-
On April 5, 2001 the subject property received draft plan approval from the Township of Oro-Medonte
for a 595 lot residential subdivision within the Horseshoe Valley Settlement Area. This approval was
subject to twenty seven conditions and ten notes (Attachment #1) which were required to be satisfied
prior to the registration of the plan. The applicant's have submitted a request in accordance with the
notes to Draft Plan Approval requesting an extension to the draft plan approval (Attachment #2). The
request for the extension of the draft plan approval is the subject of this report.
II ANALYSIS:
1-
The Township of Oro-Medonte was delegated the approval authority for plans of
subdivision/condominium from the County of Simcoe in June 2000 in accordance with the
requirements of the Planning Act and the Memorandum of Understanding with the County of Simcoe.
Since that time, the Township has draft plan approved two plans of subdivision. The above noted
property was one of those approvals granted by the Township on April 5, 2001 subject to conditions
requested both by Township staff and requested agencies. In order to receive final approval from the
Township and proceed to registration of the plan of subdivision the applicant is required to clear all
\~~ -}
conditions imposed by the approval authority and provide the appropriate clearance letters from the
required agencies.
The applicants did proceed with the clearance of the draft plan conditions on the subject property;
however, this was only completed for the first phase comprised of a total of 66 residential lots.
Condition #7 of the draft plan conditions did permit the phasing of this proposed subdivision and on
April 1, 2003 Phase 1 of this plan was given final approval by the Township and registered as a
subdivision on April 10, 2003. To date, the applicants have been completing the construction of
Phase 1 and have not proceeded with the clearing of the draft plan conditions for the remainder of the
draft approved subdivision.
The subject property is designated Horseshoe Valley Low Density Residential in the Township's
Official Plan. This designation permits the form of development that was approved on the subject
property and permits a density of up to 7.0 units per hectare. The draft plan of subdivision approved
by the municipality was 5.65 units per hectare, a lower density than permitted by the Official Plan. It
is the goal and objective of both the County and Township Official Plan to direct new residential
development to existing settlement areas and to require these developments to be serviced by full
municipal services. In order to implement this, policies are established in the Horseshoe Valley Road
policies of the Township Official Plan, which permit the development of a variety of residential uses
on full water and sewer services. As the proposed residential development was approved on the
basis that it was contained within an existing settlement area, was to be serviced by full water and
sewer services, the continued approval of this draft plan approval is deemed appropriate and in
conformity with the Official Plan.
In 2003 Horseshoe Resort Corporation prepared a Comprehensive Development Plan (CDP) for the
area known as the Horseshoe Valley Village. The CDP was prepared and accepted by Council in
principle on August 21, 2003. One of the conditions of the CDP required the owner to participate
financially in the development of a 3D model of the Coldwater River watershed that would be used to
gauge the impacts from water usage on the watershed. The subject property would also be located
within this watershed and therefore should be subject to the same condition to be consistent. This
condition was also incorporated within the Site Plan Agreement for the Settlers Ghost Golf Course
located in Concession 2, Lot 41 and Part of Lot 42 (Medonte) at the time of their approval. It is
therefore being recommended that a new condition be added to the draft plan conditions for the
subject property in order to ensure that the subdivision agreement contain provisions regarding a
financial contribution to the Township for the preparation of a 3D model of the Coldwater River
watershed.
On the basis of the above, it is recommended that an extension of 1 year be granted to the applicant
to allow for the registration of the remainder of the subdivision. Attached to this report (Attachment
#3) are the proposed revised conditions of draft plan approval with the recommended extension of
one (1) year and the new condition for the financial contribution to the Township for the preparation of
a 3D model of the Coldwater River watershed. Once Council approves the extension of the draft plan
conditions, notice of the decision would be sent to the applicant and required agencies in accordance
with the provisions of the Planning Act.

II RECOMMENDATION (S):
1-
1. THAT this report be received and adopted;
2. THAT Council approve the extension to the draft plan approval for Horseshoe Resort
Corporation, Concession 4, Part of Lots 3 and 4 (Oro), File No. 43-0M-20001 for a period of
one year;
3. That Council support the additional condition which would require the owner to financially
contribute to the Township for the preparation of a 3D model of the Coldwater River
watershed; and
4. That the applicant be advised of Council's decision.
Respectfully submitted,

RE: Commercial Development
Dear Ms Zieleniewski:
Pursuant to our meeting or yesterday, please 110te the following,
During the August 21,2003 Lake Simcoe Regional Airport Commission meeting, the requirement of on-
site water storage for fire suppression relating to UKCAN II Incorporated's Commercial Development
proposal was reviewed. I have been directed to inform you that the Commission will Jook favourably at
participating in an equal three-way cost sharing arrangement between the parties of the Township of Oro-
Medonte, UKCAN II Incorporated and the Lake Simcoe Regional Airport for the installation of a 20,000-
gallon water storage facility. It is the understanding of the Lake Simcoe Regional Airport Commission that
this requirement, stemming from the Site Plan Approval process, is sufficient for only one of the UKCAN
II proposed hangar facilities and is estimated to carry a total project cost of approximately $35,000.00. It is
also understood that this water storage will be available for general fire suppression use for an other areas
of the airpOJ1 as well as uses deemed by the Township ofOro-Medonte Fire and Emergency servioes.
It was also discussed at the August 21, 2003 Commission meeting that further on-site fire suppression
capabilities will be a requirement throughout the various phases of commercial development activities at the
airport. As the Township of Oro-Medonte is the provider of fire and emergency services at the Lake
Simcoe Regional Airport, we look forward to working with your offices to facilitate these requirements.
[fyou have any questions regarding the aforementioned, please do not hesitate to contact me at (705) 487-
0999.
Sincerely.

An open letter to the Mayor and Council of Oro- Medonte
Jim Woodford, Friend of the Oro Moraine and the Coulson Swamps
To be tabled at the Mar. 17,2004 Council Meeting
As part oftheir application for approval for a new plan for Buffalo Springs Georgian
North Lands Ltd. submitted a document "Buffalo Springs Revised Development Plan
Environmental Report Update" prepared by Stantec Consulting Ltd to Oro-Medonte.
Stantec did the 1994 Environmental Impact Report under the name Ecological Services
for Planning Ltd.
Stantec visited the site in December and claimed, "No significant changes in ecological
conditions have occurred on site."
Despite the fact that they prepared the 1994 Report they did not notice that about 500
trees had been removed from the site, some of them near the Provincially Significant
Wetlands. Graham Findlay, of MNR Midhurst, has documentation on the tree removal.
Mr. Stagg, then Oro Township staff, visited the site with John Hare, a local resident. Mr.
Hare can provide details ofthe tree removal to Council, as can Ed Hall.
In addition they failed to notice that the crown tree canopy was significantly altered.
Difficult to do if any time was spent on the site. This is in violation of Chairman Mills
1994 OMB decision.
Oro-Medonte Council asked Azimuth Consulting to evaluate the Stantec Report.
Azimuth conducted what appears to be an "in office - internet" assessment and
apparently they did no visit the site. They did not alert Council that the 500 trees had
been removed and the crown canopy was altered. They failed to tell Council that
significant ecological changes had occurred and this should be investigated.
Mike Jones, President of Azimuth, is a well-qualified hydro geologist. He does not have
expert and experienced staff to deal with the ecology of the Oro Moraine and Oro-
Medonte Township. Ecology is the study of the interrelationships between plants,
animals and natural communities. lt requires years of field study. Their report, part ofthe
OPA#16 Amnendment was riddled with scientific errors. An example, the plant
taxonomy was based on books published in the 1970's. Another, they had a bird listed as
endangered on the Oro Moraine that had never been seen there.
Neither Stantec or Azimuth conducted a scientific field investigation of the Buffalo
Springs environment nor did they raise concerns that would not be addressed by highly
qualified naturalists, who live on or near the Moraine. There has been several offers to
Council to form an Ecological Advisory Committee. Why does Council refuse to even
listen to a proposal for this committee? Should Council continue to spend thousands of
tax dollars for advice that could be provided by volunteer residents?
ILfh -J
To be fair to Azimuth, probably no consulting company would have the field knowledge
and experience of the Oro Moraine that the proposed Committee possesses.
And to be fair to Georgian North Lands the 500 trees were removed many years before
they obtained the property.

Attention: Mavor Neil Craig and Council
Dear Sirs,
Re: Arguments Against Paving the 4th Line North
(Between Old Barrie Road and Bass Lake Sideroad)
I recently purchased the property at 2431 4th Line North.
Aside from the natural beauty and serenity inherent in the rolling hills, I was attracted to
the quiet rural nature of the area.
It has come to my attention that some people are campaigning to have the above-noted
section of the 4th Line North paved.
While I appreciate their concerns about dust and potholes, I fear that paving the 4th Line
will irretrievably compromise the pastoral tranquility of the countryside.
If the 4th Line North is paved, individuals transiting between the community in Horseshoe
Valley and Highway 11 will naturally gravitate to the 4th Line. In essence, the 4th Line
will become the primary artery via which they will make their twice-daily commute.
Without dust or potholes, not only will traffic volume increase exponentially, but so will
the speed at which the commuters will travel.
As I already mentioned, an eruption of speeding vehicles will not only fracture the
serenity of our rural landscape, but it will increase the risk of harm to the residents. Ours
is an agricultural community with children, pets, horses, cattle and slow-moving farm
equipment.

In summary, I support a conscientious and diligent maintenance program of our dirt road.
However, 1 would ask that you please consider the negative implications associated with
paving the 4th Line.
Thank you in advance for your attention to this matter.
Sincerely,
