For 29 years I have been in the position of assisting others when they are in a time of distress or need. Last week was the first time that I was the one in distress. While at work I suffered severe chest pains. A co-worker found me outside in my vehicle and dialed 911. They then noticed the firefighters coming back to the station and were able to get their attention and subsequently their help. Mr. McKenzie was very professional and compassionate to me when I very much needed it. His presence calmed me considerably until the ambulance arrived. Thank you again. ~:::::::t~ Provincial Const.

Two of the firms from Toronto have not responded. Peter Archer, of Peter Archer & Associates Architect, from Barrie, came to meet with B. Molesworth. He is very interested and will be making a submission. B. Molesworth will speak to our consultant. Stephen Langmead about the approach we should take now. The question is whether we should approach other firms to expand the search or not. Once drawings are in place a dollar figure for the project will be determined and a presentation will be made to Council with the expanded information of the total cost.

He will be attending an information session in Toronto and will report to the Board. 4.4 CEO Evaluation G.A Walker thanked B.

Approval of the accounts It was brought to the Board's attention that the accounts that were approved at the May 11, 2006 Board meeting were a repeat of the March 2006 accounts not April's, therefore, there are two sets of accounts to be passed at this meeting.

Campbell, Chairman A Campbell distributed a financial statement for the five months ended May 31, 2006. The over-expenditure in the Training - Health & Safety line will be investigated by B.

Marie collection, however, this will be covered by a donation the Friends have made toward this project. It was noted that the amount budgeted in the revenue line for Local Municipalities is wrong. B. Molesworth will speak to the appropriate Staff at the Town Office.

Trounce That the Library Board accept the "Policies and Conditions of Employment", as amended. Policies and Procedures The working title of this document is "Operating Policy". On page 4, 1.14 change, "from time to time" to "at least once every Board term". On page 18, fix error in typing in 6.1, line 9, "However, l! "Chat Rooms" are..." should read "However, as "Chat Rooms are...". Appendix A, on page 21 and Appendix B on page 22 both need a dateline. In Appendix A, the dateline will be placed right after the heading "Patron's Request For Reconsideration Of Material". In Appendix B, the dateline will be placed beside "Signature of Applicant". Moved by: C. Moore Seconded by: B. Trounce That the Library Board accept the "Operating Policy", as amended. Both policy documents will be re-formatted, with a Table of Contents, and have a signature sheet attached.

Over the past year, we have: Improved our overall test scores on standardized provincial tests; Launched an unprecedented $40 million worth of school repair, renovation, and construction work; Secured collective agreements until 2008 with all of our unionized groups; Opened a new school and begun work on five Best Start childcare facilities in our schools; Continued to build partnerships with numerous agencies, including the Children's Treatment Network, Nipissing University, Penn State University, the Simcoe Muskoka Catholic District School Board, and the York Region District School Board; Celebrated our many award-winning students and staff; Continued to provide a wide range of professional development opportunities for our teachers, vice principals, principals, and senior administrators; Raised record-breaking funds for various charities, including the Terry Fox Foundation; . Taken the senior administrative team "on the road" for monthly school visits with students and staff; Welcomed a number of new trustees and staff members; and Reorganized our system into families of schools in an effort to better support students. We've continued to do those things that have been successful, and have implemented new programs and strategies as required to meet the needs of our students. This report highlights just some of the SCDSB's many achievements in the areas of literacy and numeracy, staff excellence, and safe, supportive learning and working environments. Over the coming year, we will continue to work towards our system goals with the recognition that we are united in a single purpose: to improve achievement for students in Simcoe County.

Approximately 57,000 students attend SCDSB schools and learning centres. ...-, 3 Chair's Message Over the course of the past year, this board has accomplished a great deal. We've worked with our senior administrators to make decisions that are in the best interest of students, addressed a number of tough issues, and worked to best position the SCDSB into the future. I I Among our accomplishments are a policy change that will accommodate kindergarten students in their home schools to the greatest extent possible, decisions to close some schools and build others, and an expansion of our alternative learning programs and co-operative education opportunities. This year we also welcomed Trillium Woods Elementary School, a new school at the south end of Barrie, to our family. As we move forward, trustees will continue to be part of the exciting facility renewal process and will have an opportunity to explore, with staff, the potential for more environmentally-friendly and sustainable learning and working environments. As this term draws to a close, I would like to thank all trustees for their service to their communities and their continued commitment to student success. I would also like to offer sincere thanks to everyone who has assisted me as a trustee and as Chair in understanding the issues coming to the table. Finally, I would like to thank our students, staff, parents and communities for the pivotal role each plays in supporting our students through these vital years in their lives. Your work and your efforts to support our young people are very much noticed and appreciated.

Improved Results on Literacy & Numeracy Tests Results of provincial tests administered in the spring of 2005 showed overall steady improvement in the achievement of grade 3 and 6 SCDSB students. Grade 3 and 6 students improved in reading (up 9% and 6% respectively), writing (up 3% and 4% respectively), and mathematics (up 8% and 5%) over the previous school year. 81 % of Grade 10 Students Reach Literacy Target In March, 4,400 Grade 10 SCDSB students wrote the Ontario Secondary School Literacy Test (OSSL T). Of these students, 81 % met the standards for reading and writing that The Ontario Curriculum expects them to have acquired by the end of Grade 9. SCDSB Expands Alternative Learning Programs In February 2006, the SCDSB expanded its Alternative Learning Program sites to Bradford, Angus, and Alcona. These new sites are in addition to the five programs already offered in Midland, Barrie, Collingwood, Orillia, and Alliston. Each program offers credit recovery and literacy and numeracy improvement; this newest phase also emphasizes partnerships with local communities to provide opportunities for job skill development and work experience. '. -- - -- J J Over The Top Co-op Pilot Project a Success During the 2005 -2006 school year, co-operative education pilot program Over The Top Co-op was introduced at two SCDSB schools. Available to students who had left secondary school prior to graduating and were working full or part-time, Over The Top Co-op is an opportunity for students to achieve the last one to three elective credits they need to graduate. Local employers were tremendously supportive of the program, which will again be offered in the 2006-2007 school year. Improved Data Collection During the 2005-2006 school year, the SCDSB embarked on the Managing Information for Student Achievement (MISA) project, an initiative to support educators in using data to improve student achievement. MISA funding has allowed the SCDSB to take approximately five years of paper data and make it available electronically for analysis to improve student achievement. Ongoing staff training is underway to assist in our efforts to make data- informed decisions. 5 -----n SUPPORTING STUDENT ACHIEVEMENT THROUGH... Employee Excellence Each year, numerous SCDSB employees are recognized for their contributions to student learning and to their professions. Listed below are a handful of our many award-winners: John F. Freudeman Excellence in Curriculum Award Jeannie Wilson, SCDSB Curriculum Consultant This award is presented annually to a SCDSB employee who shows leadership in curriculum development and implementation. Teacher-Librarian of the Year Pat Elliot, SCDSB Resource Teacher Ms. Elliot was presented with the 2006 Award for Teacher Librarian of the Year at the Ontario School Library Association's (OSLA) annual conference in Toronto on February 2, 2006.

During the 2005-2006 school year, community school teams in the Orillia and Midland areas linked schools with community supports and service providers, including those providing parenting programs and mental health, counseling. child protection, community recreation, and youth justice services. Additional community teams will be organized so that, by 2008, every school community in Simcoe County will have access to its own regional COMPASS team. 6 SCDSB Staff Take Role in Provincial Leadership It is a testament to the quality of work our staff produce when they are selected to share their knowledge and expertise in a leadership capacity at the provincial level. Over the course of the past year, numerous SCDSB staff members have been seconded by the Ministry of Education to provide support for provincial education initiatives. Each of these individuals has played a significant role in advancing student achievement, particularly as it pertains to literacy and numeracy, character and citizen development, and student success strategies. I L ~ ~~'" -~. ""~. 1l.~''''''.. "".." ~'YU7 Did you know? Every SCDSB school participated in the annual Terry Fox National School Day Run held in September 2006. Our students and staff collectively raised $320,000 for cancer research! Principal and Vice-Principal Symposia In 2006, SCDSB administrators had an opportunity to meet and work with colleagues in two venues: a principal symposium focusing on system planning and team building, and a vice-principal symposium focusing on data management. Both events provided excellent professional development and networking opportunities and were very well received by those in attendance. Partnerships for Leadership During the 2005-2006 school year, the SCDSB established partnerships with two universities to co-design and present powerful leadership sessions for school leaders. In partnership with Penn State University, staff developed a series of five modules on topics ranging from ethical leadership to organizational management and change processes, while a partnership with Nippissing University yielded modules on data management and informed decision-making. ---- 7 _n SUPPORTING STUDENT ACHIEVEMENT THROUGH... :: Safe & Supportive Environments "~.~~;q,,1I "~'.;k"'!'-'c-1 ~ " , ~-W-':~ .......--=t.. . ~.....~.- .,~... * ... ~ .~ ~-, ,', - ", ~ _' ~~,..... -~:r '" ~ .......

Effective March 2006, schools were divided into one of three families consisting of elementary and secondary schools. The aim of this reorganization is to strengthen partnerships across our system and provide improved continuity and consistency for students from kindergarten to grade 12. Over the coming year, we will continue to develop and implement strategies for improving our service to students and their families. Good Places to Learn In the 2005-2006 school year, the SCDSB launched an ambitious round of repair, renovation, and construction work. Funding for this unprecedented improvement of local learning environments came through the provincial government's Good Places to Learn initiative. As a result of this new funding, the SCDSB's school renewal budget increased from $ 7 million to $40 million. . . --r--=:: ~ 1"''' ,. ~'.._ if' ."........~. ... -,~~,..: it .. ~ '., - ~}'ste;n a- ~----= ...... ... oa/_ - ----.:- .

TOWNSHIP Mayor J. Neil Craig Township of Oro-Medonte Box 100 148 Line 7 South Oro, ON LOL 2XO Dear Mayor Craig, I am writing to request that the Township ofOro-Medonte officially recognize October 21 - 28 as Canadian Foster Family Week. The Simcoe County Children's Aid Society is saying thank you to the 186 families who provide alternative family homes to children in its care. Foster families are the backbone of the work we do protecting children from abuse. They open their homes to provide a caring and safe environment for children who are unable to live in their ovvn family homes. Wherever possible, the Children's Aid Society works to keep families together. When this is not possible and a relative or kin are not able to step in, a child may be brought into the care of the Children's Aid Society. Foster family care is the first choice in these situations because most children's needs are best met in a family environment. Foster parents work with Children's Aid Society staff as part of a team to develop a plan for each child in care. Foster parents provide stability and a caring home that encourages a child's growth and development. While the legal responsibility for the child remains with the agency, toster parents play an important role in the child's daily life. The Simcoe County Children's Aid Society provides substitute care to 430 children and youth, 243 of whom are in foster homes. The Children's Aid Society has only 186 foster parents available to care for these children. The number of children admitted to care each year is on the increase and the Children's Aid Society needs foster homes. This recognition will aid in increasing public awareness toward this goal. o 60 Bell Farm Road, Unit #7, Barrie, Ontario, lAM 506 Telephone: (705) 726~6587 or (800) 461.4236 Fax: (705) 726-9788 Intake Fax: (705) 735-4996 Legal Services Fax: (705) 735-6398 a 344 King Street, l\lidland, Ontario L4R 3MB Telephone (705) 526-9341 Fax: (705) 526-3418 o 186 Hurontario Street, Unit # 1 05, Collingwood, Ontario L9Y 4'1'4 Telephone (705) 444-9160, Fax: (705) 445-9601 o 46 Wellington S1.,W, Unit 4, Alliston, Ontario L9R 288 Telephone (705) 4354348 or (800) 661-5311, Fax: (705) 435-3547 o 94 Colborne 5t, W., Orillia, Ontario L3V 2Y9 Telephone (705) 325-!005 or (SOO) 422-9970, Fax: (705) 325-1519 o 118 Barrie Street, Box 872, Bradford, Ontario L3Z 2B3 Telephone: (905) 775-4336 or 1-(S66) 550-S020, Fax: (905) 775-5325 o ',",orld Wide Web: http)/wwvi,simcoccas.com We would like you to join us in recognizing and thanking Foster Families during Canadian Foster Family Week.

August 14,2006 The Honourable Dalton McGuinty Premier of Ontario Queen's Park, Room 281 Main Legislative Building Toronto, ON M7A 1A1 Dear Premier McGuinty: The Ontario Municipal Water Association (OMWA) have expressed concern that recommendations made in Watertight, a report by the government-appointed Water Expert Panel, will, if adopted, transfer control of water assets from municipalities to local water companies. These water companies are to be governed by Boards, with two-thirds of Board members to be drawn from the private sector. The OMWA views this as the first step in dismantling public ownership and have requested support in their position that water must remain under public ownership and control. The Township of Oro-Medonte owns eleven water systems and operates another two, all of which are less than 10,000 customers and can see no advantage to our residents in having these systems transferred from municipalities to another formal Board level. Therefore, on behalf of Council of the Township of Oro-Medonte, I would respectfully request that you give reconsideration to the OMWA's concerns. With support from the Province, the Township will continue to strive to supply safe, reliable and affordable water to our residents. Yours truly, :tr~~ J. Neil Craig Mayor Ijt cc: Hon.

Mulrooney commented that regardless of whose ultimately responsible for fire suppression/protection is that until the issue is addressed. developments at the airport are essentially stalled. It was also discussed that Pete Waters of Weatherwise Aviation had recently met with the Township of Oro-Medonte Director of Emergency Services as well as the Chief Building Official to concurrently discuss immediate and long-term fire suppression/protection requirements. Notwithstanding the longstanding issues associated with Weatherwise Aviation's 32,000 sq.ft. commercial hangar facility, that Hydro One Helicopter is also seeking alternative and immediate hangar facilities at the Lake Simcoe Regional Airport. It was noted that the existing facility. which they occupy. has some health and safety issues and that they are concurrently interested some expansion initiatives. It is with this in mind that Weatherwise Aviation and Hydro One Helicopters have an agreement to construct a new facility (approximately 12.000 sq.ft. to 14.000 sq.ft.) within the next 12 months. P. Mulrooney suggested that is no longer a luxury for the involved partners to decide who is going take responsibility for the ownership of the issue as one of the airport's longest standing and most valuable tenants could be effected by this issue. L. Leach concurred noting that Hydro One Helicopter is to the airport as Honda Canada is to Simcoe County. M. Drumm and W. McArthur noted that the 2006 Capital Works Program does have a line item to which the initial project costs could be allocated. A. Smith further commented that notwithstanding the standing budget line item, that some form of a cost recovery or cost sharing initiative should be considered. MOTION: Moved by F.

Leach noted that as the airport becomes increasingly busy. the security of aircraft. particularly the various corporate commercial and executive aircraft parked on the ramp outside of the airport's staffed hours of operation are going to require consideration for some form of 24-hour surveillance. M. Drumm noted that at present, such aircraft operators are provided the option to hangar the aircraft for overnight or short-term parking and that the Ontario Provincial Police do conduct random patrols outside of the airport's hours of operation. Notwithstanding this. M. Drumm did note that Transport Canada is urging increased vigilance on all parties (aircraft operators. airport operators. users. etc.) to be mindful of the current middle-east environment and potential impact(s) thereof. M. Drumm further remarked that while to date, there is no evidence of any aircraft security breaches. it was noted that airport has very limited security measures in place, particularly outside of posted hours of operations (i.e. video, perimeter security fencing. etc.). To that point. M. Drumm did note that there has been an notable increase in airport property trespassing by both persons and recreational vehicles (i.e. ATV's, snowmobiles. etc.), as a direct result of no airport property boundary marking or security fencing.

I am sure that, as a municipal official, 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.

Message: TIME SENSITIVE INFORMATION Dear Mr. Hoppe, Thank you for meeting with me this morning. I appreciate that you made time in your busy schedule to answer some questions I had related to your recent report on Rezoning Application # P-134/02. Further to our meeting and discussion, I submit the following: As confirmed in your recent summary report, and as previously mentioned in letters and recorded verbal presentations by citizens of Oro-Medonte, we agree that there exists a secondary business activity other than the specific use identified in application # P-134/02. This secondary use consists of the storage, rental, related trade and maintenance (including test or other firing) of military tanks, cannons, single-fire and automatic rapid fire guns, artillery etc. I formally and respectfully request that the Planning Committee and Council identify this confirmed activity as being NOT INCLUDED in the defined use being considered for approval in the rezoning amendment on this property. Furthermore, I respectfully request that Council note in their report that this particular use and activity is SPECIFICALLY EXCLUDED in the existing re-zoning application and/or approvals for use which are being considered or may be granted for this property. Also, I respectfully ask if these items (guns, cannons, tanks etc.) are currently identified, registered and licensed as existing on this property as any firearms would have to be by law? It is my strong belief as a citizen of Oro Medonte that such military weapons should NOT BE PERMITTED at all, for numerous reasons, in a residential area and that their existence and use warrants consideration independent of and at a much different level than usage defined as simple repair, sale and storage of jeeps and parts. In closing, I thank you Mr. Hoppe, the Planning Committee, Council, Mayor and Deputy Mayor once again for your consideration over the past many months, and look forward to hearing an outcome to this longstanding issue which will fairly represent the best interests of all the citizens of Oro Medonte.

At this time, to describe them as parks is a misnomer. They are more like eyesores. Neither lot has been taken over by the municipality and one of the park lots is factually a truck parking lot and gravel storage space. If viewed by council, we are certain that you would be ashamed for allowing such use of this area. Parks and Recreation has advised our committee that to convert these areas into two parks, the residents must raise 50% of the cost of any equipment to be placed in one of the parks. No plans seem to be existing for thc parking lot gravel storage "park" at this time. We have learned that not all parks in the township have had the 50%/50% rule applied to them. Some have been constructed on a 100% township cost basis. This is a premium subdivision (all but the two eyesore "parks") of some 100 lots, each paying no less than $3,000 per lot per annum in realty taxes in perpetuity. It is now about 80% constructed. A member of our committee carried out a survey of the wishes of the home owners with regard to what might be wanted in the park on Basswood Circle and a good majority of the residents wished to have a children's play area with swings, climbers and slides. Costs estimated for this kind of equipment are in the area of $20,000 to $30,000 one-time expenditure plus the future costs of upkeep. For 100 families (approximately) to raise $10,000 to $15,000 is equal to taxing them at 10% for one year. We hope you will see this as unfair. It also delays any action on the "eyesore parks" for an indefinite time. 2- A considerable number of pledges had been made for the funding of a playground before the council's move to sell the Red Oak parkland, but due to the extreme concern and anger which resulted from that move, we are doubtful now that those same pledges will be honoured. We therefore ask the council to promptly attend to doing the following: I. Get title to the parks and make them look like prime parks. 2. Waive the 50%/50% fund requirement. 3. Have Parks and Recreation Department use its expertise in buying and installing a playground of swings, climbers and slides into the Basswood Circle Park. We hope that the above request receives your prompt attention and that before winter sets in, the trucks, gravel and eyesores are gone and in their place, the residents and Shanty Bay can enjoy two beautiful new parks, one containing a lovely children's play area, and the other, a variety of trees, shrubs, flowers and park benches. Please advise us when this matter will be discussed by counciL We can be contacted at the e-mail addresses noted below.

The community response has been wonderful; everyone is positive about the project and we have received many contributions. However, we have not received the funding we had counted on from some of our "larger donors". In spite of our best efforts, including door to door campaigning, we still find ourselves short of our goal by some $100,000. We are committed to the project and would be disappointed, as would many in the community, if the deal were to fall apart at this late stage due to this deficit. We would therefore like to ask the Township to consider providing a bridge loan to the project. This would allow us to complete the purchase this year, and arrange for the donation of further funds in the future in order to pay back the loan. We appreciate the generosity of the municipality in donating the original $60,000, which was approximately 10% of the purchase price. In order to complete the transaction at this stage, we would very much appreciate your consideration of this proposal. . -2- Would you kindly correspond with Ron Reid of The Couchiching Conservancy by telephone at 705 326-1620 as I will be away on vacation until October 2, 2006. We do hope that you will consider our proposal favorably and thank you once again for contributing to this cause.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY A seven-year history of the aggregate licence fees received under the Aggregate Resources Act, from the Ministry of Natural Resources, with the utilization of these funds has been prepared at the request of Councillor Penman. This report also includes a recommendation that the Province of Ontario review the existing fee structure received by local municipalities.

A fee of .04 cents per tonne of extracted resources is paid to the Town to compensate for the adverse effects that the pit and quarry operations, including the use of heavy vehicles, have on the Town's roadways. The amount received annually is based on aggregate production that took place in the previous year within the municipality. The Aggregate Resources Act does not direct how these funds are to be spent, however it is suggested that these monies support funding for road projects and maintenance. Discussion Staff has compiled the history of fees collected under the Aggregate Resources Program and the utilization of these funds for the years 1999 - 2005. Fees are collected on an annual basis and are deposited into the Reserve for Aggregate Permit Fees. This reserve is to be utilized to fund rural road reconstruction and maintenance with priority given to roads directly impacted by heavy truck traffic related to the aggregate industry. The chart below indicates the amounts received each year from the Ministry of Natural Resources and the amount of funds that have been transferred to capital jobs each year. The aggregate fees received have been indexed annually using the Construction Price Index to estimate the amount that could have been collected if the licence fees were updated annually to reflect rising costs.

The Corporation of the TOWN OF MILTON v Council Report NO.CS-039-06 Page No. 4 Future revenue from the Aggregate Resources Program has been estimated to be $250,000 annually for the years 2006 - 2015 within the Capital Forecast. The same amount has also been allocated to future capital jobs to help fund the maintenance and improvement of roadways. The funding received under this agreement represents only a small percentage of the total funding needed to support these capital jobs. The undertaking of these capital jobs is essential to maintain and improve the quality of roadways within the Town that have been negatively impacted by the aggregate industry's operations. Recommendation The Town would like to request that the Province of Ontario review the adequacy of the existing fee structure of .04 cents per tonne to local municipalities for the extractive industry. Fees under this program have not been increased in over 15 years as the Town has experienced increased costs in maintaining the quality of roads and has taken on many new road projects. In order to maintain the standard of quality of Milton's roadways and to continue to offset the adverse impacts of pit and quarry operations, the fee structure should be re-examined. The outcome of this review should be that of increased funding to municipalities generated through updating the compensation fees that are needed to offset the negative effects this industry has on the communities in which they operate. If the .04 cents per tonne of extracted resources collected were indexed using the Construction Price Index, the rate would have been adjusted as follows: 1999 2000 2001 2002 2003 2004 2005 Cents Per Tonne Received 0.0400 0.0400 0.0400 0.0400 0.0400 0.0400 0.0400 Cents Per Tonne Adjusted by Construction Price Index 0.0408 0.0418 0.0452 0.0455 0.0468 0.0482 0.0508 = .)f'J!:~IZ ...

May 16, 2005 The Honourable David Ramsay Minister 01 Natural Resources Queen's Park Room 6630, Whitney Block 99 Wellesley 51. W. Toronto, ON M7A 1W3 Dear Honourable Ramsay: The Town 01 East Gwillimbury has solicited the Township of Oro-Medonte's support of their request to Ministry of Natural Resources with respect to the Aggregates Act. In 1990, the Aggregates Act esiablished a royalty for lower tier municipalities of 4 cents per tonne to be paid to the host municipality each year based on ihe annual tonnage extracted in ihal particular municipality. The royalty has not changed since 1990 noiwithstanding the fact that inflation has increased the cost of road construction and maintenance and the provision of other essential services for which this royalty was intended to assist municipalities. To address the above issues, Council endorses the Town 01 East Gwillimbury's request to the Ministry 01 Natural Resources to review and amend the royalty payment 01 4 cents; that the royalty be increased by 5 cents; and that this amendment be in place for the beginning of the year 2006. It is also requested that the Ministry review and increase the royalty payment for upper tier municipalities and for the rehabilitation of abandoned pits. On behalf of Council of the Township, I would therefore respectfully request that you give favourable consideration to these recommendations.
