Councillor Susan Self advised that she likes the addition of the vision statement "A
Watershed For Life" and further indicated that the document is consistent with the
goals established in 1996. Councillor Self suggested that the CAG's name and
those of the Director's be included in the document.
..
MayorTom Taylor inquired if the handling of situations such as the one experienced
last year with the lack of mapping in the Township of Ramara is addressed in this
document or if that is dealt with in the business plan.
The CAO responded that the Strategic document is intended as a high level
document. The priorities and detail are in relation to the business plan which deals
with the business of the Authority, the priorities and how to balance the priorities.
Incidents will occur that are not anticipated and such incidents may then become
a client services issue and automatically become a priority.
The CAO advised that the Authority will be updating mapping for all municipalities
in the watershed, and in particular for the northern municipalities where mapping
currently does not exist. The Authority was successful last year in obtaining funding
for this process. This will be identified in the Business Plan and in the budget.
The Director, Watershed Management advised that the wave uprush mapping has
been completed for Ramara and that Authority and Town staff will be meeting to
review and approve the mapping.

for such incidents.
The CAO responded that two legal opinions were obtained which the Board dealt
with at a previous meeting. It was determined that individuals will not be asked to
provide mapping where none exists. The CAG further indicated that staff held a
very successful workshop with the contractors in Ramara who expressed concerns
with the permitting process. The contractors were very pleased with the workshop
and now have a better understanding of the process.
"
Councillor Snutch advised that when the situation with Ramara presented itself,
Authority staff resolved the issues and concerns very quickly. The Town of Ramara
is very pleased with Authority staff and the contractors are pleased with the
outcome as well.

To Mayor and Council
On the behalf of the youth movement GET OUTDOORS, and The Orillia Fish and Game
Conservation Club, I wish to express our thanks to council for allowing me to make this
presentation dealing with the property of Rails to Trails and our proposed Wildlife
Corridor. Personally, In our progress society, we often hear of forests and wildlife habitat
being knocked down and bulldozed under so that a mall or subdivision can be built. In my life
span, I have never heard of a mall or other man made convenience being bulldozed down so
that it may be replaced by a forest or wildlife habitat.
I wout'd suggest to Council, that the Rails to Trails property, presents a opportunity for the
this valuable township asset to become a wildife corridor at a time when the wildlife habitat is
shrinking at an alarming pace and birds and other wildlife are suffering due to such progress.
The theme; GRANDDAD....WHA T WAS A NATURAL ENVIRONMENT?
The Project; RAILS TO TRAILS WILDLIFE CORRIDORI
The GET OUTDOORS (Orillia Chapter) have made a successful presentation to the Toronto
Dominion Bank Environmental Committee on a project of "planting trees and shrubs for
wildlife", and have been granted $2400 for this project. With the direct co-operation of the
members of the Orillia Fish and Game Conservation Club, we have planted 1,000 red and
white pine in the township of Oro Medonte, mainly on the properties of the Oriliia Fish and
Game Conservation Club.
As a mentor with the youth movement and an executive member of the Orillia Fish and
Game Conservation Club, I have proposed the following major wildlife project ,dealing with
the Rails To trails Wildlife Corridor. I should add here that before making this presentation to
the above mentioned organizations, I had talked this over with Deputy Mayor Harry Hughes.
The Deputy mayor expressed enthusiasm in the project and added number of ideas to the
project.
The project would be undertaken in a number of phases. The first phase would see a
combination of 3,000 trees planted between concession 5 through to concession 14 on both
sides of the ditch areas along the Rails to Trails. This phase would take place in the first
week of October 2004.
The second phase would see 3,000 shrubs for wildlife planted along the same area in the
spring of 2005. These shrubs would be specifically chosen to mainly benefit song and
perching birds as well as other wildlife.
Phase 3 would involve planting trees that benefit such birds and provide cover for other
wildlife. This would see 2,000 such wildlife shrubs planted in the ditch areas of Rails To trails
from the fifth concession, through to the city limits of Barrie. This phase 3 would take place in
<1/7 !/004
. .
Page 2 of2
\d d - Y
the spring of 2005 and followed by the planting of 2,000 trees planted in the fall of that same
year.
No less than 20 members of the Orillia Fish and Game Conservation Club will supply
supervision and provide labour on the project. They will also supply 6 A TVs that will carry the
trees and shrubs along the trail for planting. This also includes the water needed for planting.
Members of the Get outdoors will take participate in the planting.
We propose that I will meet with the principals of Guthrie and East Oro public Schools,
proposing the project to them and to seek the participation of the mentioned school children.
To do so we would also need the participation of Stanton bus lines to bus the children to and
from the centre point being Hawkestone.
Upon receiving the go ahead on this project, I will meet with one of Ontario's major wild
flower seed and plant growers and obtain their involvement in this RAILS TO TRAILS
WILDLIFE CORRIDOR.
I suggest to Council that the Rails To Trails could be one of the most important wildlife
corridors in the province, if not one of the most significant wildlife habitat projects in Canada.
If we have the co-operation of the council of Oro-Medonte on this habitat improvement
project, one further step is suggested. I would propose that the Council of Oro-Medonte
enact a by law to prohibit the taking of any tree, shrub or other plants from the property
known as the Rails To Trails within the boundaries of the Township of Oro-Medonte. Upon a
conviction in contravention of such a by-law, a fine be levied of no less than $500 dollars.
As this project is within a specific time phase that would enable us to purchase the needed
trees and shrubs, we would appreciate if the council would give us the go ahead at the time
of this meeting and presentation.
Yours truly,
Murray J. Martin

Dear Resident
Re: Lakeshore Promenade, Plan 626
Further to the correspondence dated August 16, 2004 from Chris Carter, Recreation Co-coordinator, this letter is
an update on the work to take place on the Promenade between Blackman Boulevard and Myrtle Avenue.
Most importantly, I would take this opportunity to advise that the Township has commissioned a legal opinion
on the status of the Promenade and it has been detennined that the Lakeshore Promenade in Plan 626 is indeed a
road allowance. The Township will therefore be exercising its rights under the appropriate sections of the
Municipal Act to restrict vehicular traffic on the portion of the Promenade between Blackman Boulevard and
Myrtle A venue denoted on the attached sketch dated September 15, 2004. The previous sketch dated August
16, 2004 is also attached for comparison.
You will note that some changes in placement ofbollards and cedar posts has taken place as a result of
discussion between staff and residents involved, as well as survey work carried out on site.
As ofthe date of this letter, the surveyor, installer, Public Works Superintendent and Chief Administrative
Officer have attended on site to facilitate the installation of cedar posts. The penn anent installation of those
bollards which will restrict vehicular traffic on this portion of the Promenade will not take place until the by-law
to restrict vehicular traffic has been enacted by Council. The by-law will also establish provisions to pennit
ingress and egress to the Promenade.
Also included for your infonnation, is the after-hours number to be used in scenarios in which residents abutting
the portion ofthe Promenade where vehicular traffic is restricted require immediate after-hours access to the
Promenade, i.e. septic or well failure.
AFTER HOURS NUMBER 487-6499

Dear Sir or Madam:
This year, Canada's Citizenship Week will be held October 18 - 24. This event is
a time to explore the nature of Canadian citizenship and the underlying values of
respect, freedom and belonging that bring us together and make Canada such a
great country in which to live.
I hope that your municipality will join the celebration by recognizing this important
week. We are encouraging municipalities to become involved by passing a
resolution proclaiming Canada's Citizenship Week. A sample resolution is
enclosed for your reference.
You may also want to lead your council in a reaffirmation of Canadian citizenship
by reciting the oath of citizenship. A copy of the oath is enclosed, along with a
copy of the Citizenship Week poster and an order form for material to support
your community's participation in the Week. To ensure priority service, please
fax your order to (613) 954-7619.
As a municipal official, I am sure you will agree that all citizens should be
encouraged to take part in community activities. It is particularly important for
young people to become actively engaged in citizenship activities. Many of the
products we have developed aim to empower young people with the concepts,
understanding and skills they need to be responsible, caring and active citizens.
If you have any questions about Canada's Citizenship ~eek or citizenship in
general, please e-mail usatwelcomehome@cic.gc.ca. You can also obtain
more information by visiting the Citizenship and Immigration Canada Web site at
www.cic.qc.ca.

Attention: Mr. Jerry Ball,
Public Works Superintendent
Dear Mr. Ball:
Re: Barry Gardhouse;
Lot 28, Plan 626, Township of Oro;
Lakeshore Promenade
Please be advised that I have been retained by Mr. Barry Gardhouse regarding your
letter of August 16th, 2004 and the issues raised therein. My client fundamentally disputes
Council's interpretation of the right to access.
My client's only access to his property is along the Promenade and disputes
Council's right to grant ingress and egress "on an as-need basis". My client's right to
access has been long established and Council has no discretionary control over my client's
fundamental right of access. The position of the Municipality will be disputed.
However, in the shorter term, my client has specific concern regarding Council's
attempt to access control over the Promenade as a recreational facility. My client has a
dock and boat house which have been in place for approximately 50 years. Please confirm
that it is not the intention of the Municipality to interfere with my client's structures or his
rights of access to same. Any interference will be treated as a trespass to my client's
property and action will be taken accordingly.
I look forward to a prompt response in light of the assertion that you intend to
implement a works program on September 13th, 2004.

Dear Mayor and Members of Councjl:
Re: Lake Shore Promenade
Ownership of Promenade
Installation of Wooden Posts and Bollards
As you lalow, we represent a number ofJandowners adj acent to the Lake Shore Promenade.
I have been advised that at the Council meeting last week a resolution was passed to proceed
with the proposed work on Lake Shore Promenade. As I conveyed in my previous letter, that
work is i1'!consistent with both the status of the Lake Shore Promenade as an unopened road
allowance and its status as never having been a road allowance. Given that the proposed
work is not urgem, \ve urge that the Township delay taking any actions at this time with
respect to the Lake Shore Promenade.
In particular, we request that the Township not install any physical structures that may have
to be removed, including the proposed bollards along Owen Road and Lake Shore
Promenade, which may impair or impede emergency vehicle access by reducing access or
slowing response time. We also again request that the Township provide us with materials
substantiating the TO\V11ship's position with respect to the status of the road.

enter for the purpose of rectifying the said work, hereby agrees to indemnify and
release the Township from and against all claims, demands, actions or causes of
action whatsoever arising as a result of the Township or of its servants or agents
entering upon the lands for the purpose of correcting drainage problems. The
cost of such work will be for the account of the lot owner. Any invoices not paid
within thirty (30) days after the due date, shall be added to the tax roll and
collected in a like manner as realty taxes, as per Section 427 of the Municipal
Act. 2001.
