The Chair requested that staff present an example demonstrating the salary

7. GOVERNANCE REVIEW
7.1 Chair's Report on Governance
In 2005 a member of the NVCA Board requested a review of the governance system
currently in place at the NVCA. As a result, the Chair prepared an overview of the
governance system and provided an opportunity for the Full Board to express their
comments on whether they felt a need for some modification of the present system.
The Conservation Authorities Act states that the local municipalities are to appoint a
member, of their choice, to represent their municipality (regulated by population, in some
cases two appointees) to the NVCA Full Authority Board. The governance model of the
NVCA includes three Advisory Committees, Planning, Engineering & Technical Services
and Land & Water Stewardship Services. The Executive acts as the Advisory Committee
on administrative, corporate communications and human resource matters. The
Advisory Committees then make recommendations to the Executive which are forwarded
on to the Full Authority Board for their approval.
This governance model has worked well for the last five years. The business of the
NVCA has grown significantly and the Advisory Committee model has allowed the
members to concentrate on specific areas bringing back recommendations to the Full
Authority Board and providing for a overview of the services provided by the NVCA.
The Chair took comments/questions from the floor.
7.2 Board Direction
The following actions were directed by the Full Authority Board:
a) That staff bring back a report advising of the governance systems used by
neighbouring Conservation Authorities; and
b) That a letter be sent to our watershed municipalities reiterating the current legislation
in the Conservation Authorities Act regarding the appointment of NVCA Full
Authority members.
Other than a minor suggestion for changing the way the Executive communicates the
results of its meetings to the Full Authority, no sU9gestions were made by Board
members for changing the NVCA governance model.

Water Protection Dufferin Headwater Pilot Project and the draft terms of reference
currently being developed. The terms of reference will focus on the needs of local
municipalities within multiple source water protection planning areas. The Dufferin
municipal CAO's suggested that emphasis should be placed on technical support.
It was also noted that Source Water Protection Information Sessions will start the week
of March 27'h and will feature provincial and local staff involved in the Source Water
Protection initiative and the proposed Bill 43, Clean Water Act, 2005. Invitations have
been sent to all of our watershed municipalities who are encouraged to attend these
important information sessions.
8.3 Assimilative Capacity Study verbal update
Wayne Wilson, CAO/Secretary-Treasurer provided an update on the Assimilative
Capacity Studies. All of the core technical projects and studies are currently being
finalized and a report outlining the results and recommendations is expected to be
released by the end of April, 2006.
A communication plan is being development and includes open houses, web site
updates and project executive summary. A CD with final results, consultant reports,
media and ambassador kit materials will also be prepared.
The study will be submitted to the Ministry of the Environment and the Ministry of
Municipal Affairs and Housing for their approval. The next phase will be working with all
municipalities in the development of the most cost effective way to reduce phosphorus
loading, reviewing the sewage plant capacity and water quality targets.
A lengthy discussion ensued. Board members questioned the implications of the
Assimilative Capacity Study on development and on the best management practices.

TOWNSHIP OF ORO-MEDONTE
REPORT
Dept. Report No. To: COUNCIL Prepared By:
PW2006-09 Jerry Ball
Subject: Department:
Council
Request to Place a "Soft Public Works
C.ofW. Landing Base" on Village Date:
Green Property for Mav 2, 2006
Motion # Playground Equipment R.M. File #:
Date: RolI#:
II BACKGROUND:
II
On January 11, 2006, Council received a request from the Village Green Association to install the
safety base and pay one half of the cost of the purchase of equipment for upgrades to a two-acre
park called the Village Green in Shanty Bay. (Attachment #1). The total amount requested was
$15,000.00. This request was referred to budget deliberations and was not approved by Council.
The Village Green Association has submitted further correspondence dated April 11 , 2006, that
Council consider a request for service in kind to develop the soft landing base and that the Township
provide the materials for this base in the park. (Attachment #2).
II ANALYSIS:
II
A site visit was completed to determine the size of the sand pad required (65 feet x 80 feet, with a
depth of one foot), the required excavating and topsoil removal, the hauling and placing of sand, and
the installation of a wooden barrier. The cost for this project, if undertaken by the Township forces,
will be approximately $4,000,00.
In considering this request, it should be noted that it has been past practice not to enter onto private
property with municipal equipment for the purpose of performing any type of work or improvement.
As the Village Green park is not municipally-owned and to prevent setting a precedent by entering
private property, it is recommended that the Township not participate in any type of construction for
the requested playground project.
I
\
The Village Green Association is a non-profit organization who have taken on the task of managing
the Village Green park. The Association has advised that funds are privately raised from local
residents to cut grass, remove trees and generally maintain the site. The request has been made to
update playground and playground equipment to a safe level. The Village Green park is accessible
to the public 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and is located in the heart of Shanty Bay.
~.'J
This Association has taken upon itself the maintenance and upkeep of this park for the betterment of
the community, and Township of Oro-Medonte Council promotes partnerships in the community of
this type such as municipal and private community halls. Therefore, given that staff time does not
permit the inclusion of another summer project, it is recommended that Council give favourable
consideration to an expenditure for materials for the project in the Village Green Park to a maximum
of $2000.00 and that the funds be drawn from the Contingency Fund.
t RECOMMENDATION(S):
~
1. THAT Report No. PW2006-09 be received and adopted.
2. THAT an expenditure for materials for the project in the Village Green Park to a maximum of
$2000 be approved.
3. THAT the funds for the Village Green Park project be drawn from the Contingency Fund.
4. THAT the Public Works Superintendent advise the Village Green Association of Council's
decision.
Respectfully submitted,

Mayor and Council Members
Township of Oro-Medonte
148 Line 7 South, Box I ()()
Oro, ON LOL 2XO
Dear Mayor and Councillors:
The Village Greeu Association is the organization with responsibility for maintaining the
Village Green, a two-acre park in the heart of Shanty Bay village, a park owned by St.
Thomas Church. We privately raise the funds necessary from local residents to cut grass,
remove trees, and generally maintain the site in good order. The Village Green was the
location of last September's Shanty Bay Festival, an event that brought together over 300
residents to celebrate our community.
For some time, we have been concerned that our playground equipment is unsafe. We
have already removed a tall slide from the property. An existing old swing has three seats
in one bay, a situation that is now considered unsafe, and a smaller climbing structure
with swings and broken slide is not up to safe standards. These structures must be
replaced with modem, code-compliant equipment.
The Village Green Association has asked a group of parents and grandparents to work
with Township staff to develop a plan to replace the Village Green play equipment. On
the advice of Chris Carter, this group has visited several local sites that have new
playgrounds. They have also met with a representative of Little Tikes. a firm that sells
and installs CSA approved playground equipment. Our research has indicated that this
firm, formerly known as Paris Play Equipment, constructs the play structures we prefer
for our playground.
We have received a proposal from Little Tikes that includes a range of equipment to
serve the needs, in particular, of younger children. A detailed CAD drawing showing the
respective safety zones for the equipment will be mailed to us shortly.

page 2
Based on our preliminary discussion with Chris Carter, we understand that Oro-Medonte
Council might agree to install the safety base and pay one half of the cost of the purchase
of equipment. We are asking Council to approve an amount of up to $15,000.00 for this.
With your support, we will continue to work with Township staff to develop this project.
Thank you for your consideration of our request.
Yours truly,

Oro, ON LOL 2XO
Dear Mayor and Councillors:
We have been informed by Councillor Marshall that Oro-Medonte TowDship will not
cost share the needed equipment to replace our unsafe swings and slide. This is based on
the fact that the Village Green land is not owned by the Township. Naturally, we are very
disappointed in this decision.
We have been advised to apply for a grant to help cover the cost of placing a soft landing
base under equipment we plan to purchase in the near future with our own funds.
We request that Council donate labour and materials to establish a soft landing base of
1,200 square feet. This size base will accommodate the two modest play structures we
plan to purchase.
We hope that Council will agree that all children should have the protection of a soft
