On behalf of the Oro - Medonte Community Choirs, I would like the opportunity to present a
deputation this Wednesday, February 14th, requesting sponsorship for a very special project our
Youth Choir has undertaken this spring in the form of an exchange with a choir from North
Battleford, Saskatchewan.
The Saskatchewan choir will be joining us from May 31 -June 4 during which time we will be in
workshops, rehearsals, and performances focused on "Experiencing the World Through Music"
(including a performance with the Orillia Youth Symphony Orchestra and a Quebec Youth
Symphony Orchestra). Our choir members will also be acting as hosts to show off the many
beautiful sites within and surrounding our township.
At the end of June, our choir will be traveling to Saskatchewan where they will join our host
choir for 4 days, followed by a performance tour of various cities and towns in Saskatchewan.
This tour has been in planning since the fall of 2006 through SEVEC, a federal agency which
funds cross - Canadian exchanges. Due to circumstances beyond our control, our groups became
ineligible for the funding and as a result we have been struggling to raise the required finances.
We look forward to representing the township both here and in Saskatchewan and hope that the
Mayor and Council members would be interested in supporting our project.
I spoke with Jennifer Z. who indicated that we could be scheduled for Wednesday evening, but 1
assume that I require your confirmation. You can contact me by phone at 487 -6385, or by e-
mailing me at miareeoryca @yahoo.ca. Thank you for your assistance.
Sincerely,
Marilyn Gregory
Director, Oro - Medonte Community Choirs

Subject: Request to Permit Trailer on 188 Moon Point Drive
Doug Irvin,
Over the past couple of months we have been chatting with Bruce Hoppe about a Permit for a piece of property
my husband and I will acquire Mar 1 2007 on 188 Moon Point Dr and a request for a permit to have a trailer
reside on the property while we are building.
We have asked for a 2 year permit which we understand is outside of usual permit lengths. For that reason I
have been advised to ask for a deputation to address Council during the Feb 7th 9am meeting.
We are waiting for confirmation that this meeting will intact occur however this is what we have penciled in and
hope that our request will be addressed.
If there is anything that we can say further during the meeting to help with the extended permit we would like the
opportunity to do so.
Please let me know if this request via email is sufficient to be added to the list to address council.
I appreciate you taking the time to assist us.
Regards,
Cheryl and Ben Lewis,

Council, d Q
Thank you for the opportunity to address Council.
It is our hope being present today will eliminate any reservations you might have around
granting us a 24 month permit to have a trailer on our new property.
Prior to understanding that a permit was required my husband and I sought out to find a
suitable trailer that we could put on our new Moon Point property while preparing to
build. We made certain that were purchased a trailer that wouldn't be an eye sore and
could be disguised as a small cottage once placed on the property.
For the past 7 years my father has lived on Moon Point drive and we have come to know
many of the residents on this street, all of who are very pleased that we have bought the
property. My husband works in a building industry and has been extremely helpful to
neighboring residents undergoing their own building projects.
We respect these individuals and that their properties are worth a significant amount of
money and we do not intend on doing anything that would potentially devalue their
homes by having our property looking like a trailer park.
During the spring of this year we would like to begin prepping our land, putting in a
septic and begin the foundation of a new home. It is our intention to do the majority of
the building ourselves which is why we are requesting a 24 month permit. We
permanently reside in Burlington, and plan to have this as a vacationing home.
Financially we cannot afford to have a contractor build us a new house with short term
completion and therefore we are requesting a 24 month grant of a permit.
We are prepared to pay the $5000.00 deposit and understand the repercussions of leaving
the trailer on the property after a termination date.
Please find attached photos of the trailer. We intend on having a wrap around deck built
to minimize the "trailer" look as best we can and ensure it's safe.
Sincerely,
f
Lewis
ORO- MEDONTE COMMUNITY CHOIRS
DEPUTATION TO COUNCIL
WEDNESDAY FEB. 14, 2007
Mayor Hughes and members of council. First may I wish each of you a very
happy valentines day and say I hope you have big hearts tonight. I am here
on behalf of the Oro - Medonte Community Choirs to ask for your support of
a very special project that we are undertaking. I know you are busy, so I will
not take your time to revue the many accomplishments of the choirs since
they began over I I years ago. I know most, if not all of you, have heard the
choirs perform, and they have done so on many occasions in this council
chamber over the years. You know what a wonderful opportunity has been
provided to these young people and the many audience members who have
enjoyed their gift of song.
The project involves a cross - Canada exchange with a similar youth choir
from North Battleford Saskatchewan. The Battleford youth choir will be _
coming to our area for four days at the beginning of June and our youth
choir will be traveling to Saskatchewan to perform at the beginning of July.
The theme of this exchange is "Experiencing the World Through Music' and
will feature a program filled with music from around the world — Mexico,
Serbia, Korea, Germany, Italy, Africa, United States and of course Canada.
Through this music the young people involved will gain an understanding of
the various cultures of the world as well as the differences and similarities
we share in different regions of our own Country.
11
During the exchange we will be holding workshops which introduce world
drumming, dance and singing to our young people including one with a
renowned specialist in African music. While in Saskatchewan, we will be
performing in Prince Albert, Hanley and Saskatoon. Through this experience
we will be exposing our young people to the geography, lifestyle, history
and culture of our Saskatchewan neighbours, all with the goal of helping to
build more knowledgeable and compassionate citizens for the future.
When the Battleford Youth Choir visits Oro - Medonte we will be offering
several performances for audiences in the area. On Sunday June 3rd we will
be performing at the Orillia Opera House in a magnificent concert which has
been organized by Orillia Youth Symphony Orchestra also featuring the
Jolliet Youth Symphony Orchestra from Quebec. We also look forward to
being tour guides to show our visitors the many sights that we enjoy within
our Township and surrounding area.
When we undertook this exchange, we had been working with the Arts
Bureau for the Continents, who had been working with SEVEC, a federal
agency which sponsors exchange programs within Canada. Although we
were led to believe we would receive approximately $13,000 from SEVEC ,
we only recently learned that we are not eligible for funding from this source.
With the entire cost of the exchange being approximately $28,000, this lack
of sponsorship has left us in an unmanageable financial situation.
Through previous and current fund raising efforts we have managed to raise
$7,700 and the families of our choir members themselves will contribute
$8000.00. We are actively seeking sponsorship from local businesses,
2
z
selling ads in our programs, and soliciting donations from individuals, which
we anticipate will provide another $3000.00 towards the overall costs of the
exchange. We will also be able to raise approximately $1000.00 through our
concert revenues.
Unfortunately, this leaves us with an $8000.00 shortfall and it is our hope
that Council will consider granting us this amount. We have always taken
pride in representing our Township over the past years and look forward to
acting as good will ambassadors during this exchange. I know it is a lot to
ask but I hope you will also see the value in this project as a worthy
investment in our young people and our community.
Although I am reluctant to ask for an early decision regarding this request, it
would be extremely helpful if we could know Council's decision by the end
of February in order that we can make all the necessary commitments. If
time permitted we would grace your presence with a song but I hope instead
that we may see all of you at one of our concerts during the exchange.
I have made copies of my presentation and attached a budget to leave with
each of you and if you have any questions I would be happy to answer them.
Thank you for your time and your consideration of our request.

7. PRESENTATIONS
• Watershed Report Card update.
Dave Featherstone, Manager, Watershed Monitoring Program provided an overview of the
NVCA Watershed report card. The Report Card uses Conservation Ontario's template with
minor modifications to reflect Environment Canada's "How Much Habitat is Enough ?"
guidelines. The report card will provide a description of forest conditions, wetland conditions
and surface water quality for each of the NVCA subwatersheds.
Three documents will be produced in partnership with Conservation Ontario:
• A detailed technical report for resource management
• A watershed report card which is designed for the broader public; and
• Posting of detailed reports and watershed report cards on the NVCA and Conservation
Ontario web sites.
A five year reporting interval with annual updates is proposed. It is intended that the report
card will be used by municipalities and the NVCA as a tool to identify and protect the natural
heritage areas, and provide a means of targeting rehabilitation and protection activities within
each watershed.
Several questions of clarification were asked by the Board Members. It was generally agreed
that the report card will provide useful information to the public.
Fred Nix, Chair advised that once completed, the report card will be taken to each municipal
council in the watershed. In addition staff advised that the report card will include separate
reports for each of the subwatersheds.
It is anticipated that the Watershed Report Card will be presented to the Board of Directors
early in 2007.

Reports of Board Committees - continued
B. Jeffery stated that the Town of Midland had applied twice but had
been turned down. He went on to say that it was hard to know what
kinds of projects might meet with approval in the future, so the Library
should get its name in.
6.4 Policy Committee
The Committee has not met, therefore, no report.
6.5 Building Committee
B. Molesworth distributed copies of a document from the architectural
firm Roth Knibb that contains sketches of what the expansion might
look like from the outside. The look of the existing building will not
change. There will be an atrium between the old and the new with
bridges connecting. The internal layout will change somewhat but
generally the departments and collections are set. The architect will
meet with the Committee in January and then bring a presentation to
the Board for the February 2007 meeting. The Building Committee as a
whole are pleased with the overall look of the project. The presentation
to Council will likely take place in March or April. J. Swick mentioned
a new technology that he has seen that puts a DVD presentation onto
something that is about the size of a business card that can be given to
people. B. Molesworth will ask P. Ferris if he knows about this
technology.

Subject: Guthrie United Church Building
Hello Doug:
I wanted to express my support for the preservation on the "former" Guthrie United Church building
I fully intended to attend tomorrows meeting and then find myself called to Vancouver on very short notice. I
cannot physically be at the meeting so this email is intended to express my view that this structure is unique and
very much worth preservation.
I have lived and traveled extensively in Canada. This has given me the opportunity to view and entered many
Church buildings, both large and small. My impression is that this structure is a clear expression of the dedication
of the founding families of Oro Township. It appears to have constructed with loving attention to detail and crafted
to withstand the ages; testimony to the faith and dedication of the people who built it. Its' legacy has probably not
yet been fully recognized. At a glance this may seem dramatic; especially for those who may have passed by it for
years. Is it possible we fail to place value on that which is familiar?
I feel that all options should be considered to conserve the Church building; that future generations may have a
tangible connection to their heritage.
Respectfully,
Brian Clappison

approximately 0.65 acres, and is located east of Woodland Drive (refer to Attachment #1). The
property is currently vacant, and it is the proponent's intention to construct a dwelling thereon as a
summer residence.
During construction, the proponent has asked that the Township grant permission to temporarily
reside in a trailer. The request is appended to this report as Attachment #2. Ms. Lewis has indicated
that her husband plans to construct the dwelling himself and travel back and forth from their
permanent home in Burlington. The Township's Comprehensive Zoning By -law 97 -95 does not
permit human habitation in a trailer, therefore permission is required in order to permit this temporary
accommodation.
DISCUSSION:
The Township has historically allowed owners to temporarily reside in existing dwellings or trailers
and allow for a building permit to be issued for a new dwelling. This practice has been followed
contrary to the Township's Zoning By -law, which only allows one dwelling per property and prohibits
human habitation of a trailer (outside of licensed trailer parks), however is a reasonable compromise
to assist owners in these cases. A financial deposit and agreement stipulating the terms of the
approval have been executed with the owners which ensures compliance after the new dwelling is
complete. A six month timeframe has been granted in the past in these cases.
A $5,000 security deposit is required by the Township prior to issuance of a building permit for the
new dwelling.
RECOMMENDATIONS
1. THAT Report No. BP 2007 -003 be received and adopted.
2. That Council authorizes the request of Cheryl Lewis to temporarily reside in a trailer for a six
month period while her new dwelling is being constructed.
3. That the Clerk bring forward to appropriate by -law authorizing the attached agreement to this
effect.

Recently I have spoken with Bruce Hoppe and he has asked that I write to the Mayor and
Council with regards to a request for permit to have a park model trailer reside on a lot
my husband and I have purchased in the Township of Oro Medonte.
We take possession of the lot March 12007, located on 188 Moon Point Dr.
It is our plan to build a new house on the property and we have chosen to build the house
ourselves. My husband works in this field and we can save a lot of money doing so
however he will be commuting from Burlington when he can get the time off work and
will require a place to reside while working on the property.
It's not feasible for my husband to take extended time off work to build the new house
and for that reason we are asking for an extension of time permitted to have the trailer on
the property for a length of two years,
We would like to prep the land in the spring of 07, install the septic system, and work
with utilities to have power brought to the property.
During 08 we would like to begin the building the house witit a completion at the year
end.
I have enclosed some photos so you have an idea of what the trailer looks like, and it is
our intention -to ensure that while the trailer resides on the property it is made to look as
appealing as possible in consideration of our neighbors and those on the waterfront.

SECTION: Transportation and Engineering Department
ITEM NO. CS 07 -059
MEETING DATE: February 14, 2007
SUBJECT: Application to the Ontario Infrastructure Projects Corporation for
Funding
RECOMMENDATION:
THAT the by -law attached as Schedule 1 to Item CS 07 -059 be presented to Council to authorize
the submission of an application to the Ontario Infrastructure Projects Corporation for Funding
from the Rural Infrastructure Investment Initiative for a New Eligible Capital Project of the
Corporation of the County of Simcoe and to Approve the Expenditure of Funds on Said Eligible

Infrastructure Projects Corporation is the administrator of the Rural Infrastructure Investment
Initiative,
County Road 44 has been submitted as the Eligible Capital Work Project. The construction cost

ITEM FOR: CORPORATE SERVICES COMMITTEE
SECTION: Roads and Engineering
ITEM NO. CS 07 -055
MEETING DATE: February 14, 2007
SUBJECT: County of Simcoe Sign By -law No. 4630
RECOMMENDATION:
THAT Item CS 07 -055 regarding the County of Simcoe Sign By -Law No. 4630, be received for
information.
BACKGROUND:
This report is further to a request from the January 2007 Corporate Services Committee regarding
the County of Simcoe Sign By -law and more specifically, Billboard signs. By -law No. 4630,
enacted in October of 2000, contains regulations and prohibitions concerning the erection and
maintenance of all signs which are displayed along County Roads. This By -law contains an
application procedure which outlines what type of sign may be displayed, the size of a sign, and
ensures that the proper setbacks are maintained and complied with.
Billboard signs are defined in the by -law as; `a poster panel or back light sign that advertises
goods, products or services not sold on the lot or premises where the sign is located'. In section
11, of schedule `A' of the by -law, further regulations pertaining to billboard signs are outlined.
For example; dimensions are explained with respect to setbacks of a sign from the property line
depending on size, billboard signs may only be placed a minimum of a 305 metres apart, as well
as a restriction outlining no sign to be placed within 100 metres from the lot line of a residential
use.
Some local municipalities may deem it necessary to place more restrictive regulations on signs
according to local wishes. Section 5.3 of the by -law states; `The County may issue the permit
where the application is in conformity with the requirements of this by -law, and any other
applicable by -law of this County or the local municipality in which the sign is to be erected. The
by -law that is most restrictive shall apply. Further, the issuance of a County permit shall not
relieve the applicant from the responsibility to obtain any local municipal permits if applicable.
i.e. building permits.' Municipalities such as Collingwood, Midland, Penetanguishine, and
Innisfil have used this section to place a moratorium on billboards that also applies to any County
roads within their boundaries.

Approved Meeting Minutes, December 11, 2006
Attendance: Sheila Kirkland, Jadeen Henderson, Allan Howard
Bruce Wiggins, Geoffrey Booth, O -M staff Margaret Prewer
Guest: Mayor Harry Hughes
On behalf of the OMHA, Sheila extended welcome to Margaret Prewar and incoming Parks
and Recreation Director Shawn Binns.
Minutes of Nov. I 1 meeting — Under African Church Reprint, change "sole" to "sold ".
MOVED by Sheila, SECONDED by Jadeen, that minutes be accepted as
amended. PASSED.
Business Arising
• Proposed 2007 OMHA Budget (circulated) — discussion regarding past budget
amounts allocated to OMHA ($10,000 appears to have been the case). Margaret will
check records to determine actual amounts. Consensus that education is an
important part of OMHA's mandate. MOVED by Allan, SECONDED by Jadeen,
that the amount budgeted for education be doubled from $2,000 to $4,000.
PASSED. Estimated advertising budget at $1,000. Printing costs were also
considered, and the possible purchase of a tent for special occasions that could be
used jointly by Parks and Rec and the OMHA.
• African Church — discussion regarding varying aspects of Church property. Some
issues are budget - related, while others fall under the direct responsibility of the
Township. Mayor Hughes said that sanitary facilities costs are a health and safety
issue, and so should not be included in OMHA budgeting. Repairs to the Church
need to be assessed before any cost can be estimated. Repairs must be in keeping
with the traditional heritage of the site and NHS regulations. Don Robinson will be
asked for a quote. Proper measurements should also be made of the building, in the
event of partial or total reconstruction. Is there a newsworthy report? Can we have
an architectural report done? Mayor Hughes suggested public service
announcements in local media (Valley Voice, North Simcoe News) may help us find
volunteers to assist with these tasks. Blue boxes are needed on site. Geoff will
draft a PSA for consideration at next meeting.
o Interpretive Proposed Budget (circulated) — OMHA requests that the
Township notify the former land owner that stones from the Caldwell
property will be delivered to the site in the New Year. Margaret will
download Trillium forms for funding the project. Mayor Hughes offered
advice on how to `humanize' the site, suggesting a local student letter -
writing campaign to the Governor General might be one way to attract her
(and publicity) to the project. Discussion also occurred regarding the
placement of a portable on site, to raise public awareness and to create
temporary storage space for OMHA materials. Mayor Hughes to investigate
costs and report.

This refers to a notice I recently received titled "ATTENTION" , NOTICE OF PROPOSED
GENERAL AMENDMENTS TO THE COMPREHENSIVE ZONING BY -LAW NO. 97 -95 OF THE
TOWNSHIP OF ORO- MEDONTE.
This notice says that I should seek information from the Township about my specific property
by inspection, telephone, email or regular mail. I am most concerned about this notice and I need
information.
However, to begin with, I do not understand the bureaucratic contents of the notice. I live
approximately thirty kms from the township office and it is no easy feat just to go there to get an
interpretation of its contents. Secondly, THERE 1S NO EMAIL address with which to correspond, that
is no avenue.
I phoned the planning department as outlined, the response was You have reached the voice
mail of? (and I did not record the male's name), I'm away from my desk right now and I'll return your
call as soon as possible ". (or words to that effect). I made that call on January 29 at 4:10 PM and no
response has been made to date.
Four working days should be enough for a telephone response, please advise.
Yours truly

Hello Mr. Liss:
As discussed this afternoon, this is to confirm that Township staff have checked the proposed mapping being
drafted concerning the Zoning By -law review process, specifically as it concerns the above noted property, and
conclude that there is no existing nor proposed EP zoning affecting these lands.
As promised, please find enclosed a staff report which outlines in greater detail some of the additional
'housekeeping' amendments that are under consideration. If you require clarification regarding any of these
items, or if you would like to be notified when the proposed changes will be considered by Council, please let us
know and you will be added to the notification list.
Again I apologize for the lateness in responding to your enquiry.

Subject: Feasibility Questions
Good morning Mel,
It's been a while since we've spoken and I wanted to touch base and ask a couple of questions.
The Moonstone Elementary Enhancement Team (MEET) is about to start moving ahead with a plan to "see where
we stand" with the school board and to request an Accommodation Review. To that end, I was wondering if the
Township would be able to provide some information on the feasibility of the following items:
1. Running natural gas to the building (when expanded) as the school currently uses electric heat. From what
I understand, the natural gas lines run along Moonstone road and pass right in front of the school. 1
suppose I should ask you to confirm that first.
2. Pouring sidewalks along both sides of Moonstone Road from Line 8 to Ellen Road for increased student
safety. There are no sidewalks for students currently and they must walk on the road in winter.
3. Whether the current lot size would accommodate the septic system capacity increase required to expand
the school to allow for future enrollment that would include the Grade 7 and Grade 8 students (currently
being bussed to Coldwater). I think that would mean a total of 350 to 450 students (I will have to confirm
those numbers with Peter Beacock and get back to you).
Not sure if you will be able to provide any of that information but we'd appreciate anything you could give us.
Once we know a bit more, we will put together a presentation for Council. We will keep you in the loop in the
meantime.
Thanks for listening to our concerns and please be sure to let me know if you need any help. I am still very
interested in staying involved in the community. Harry let me know about the selection for the Airport Committee
but mentioned that there may be other things Council could call on me for. Please do.
Thanks again Mel,
Simon

Mel,
Thank you for beginning to address our concerns so promptly. I do appreciate it.
I wanted to send a correction of the number of students Simon had mentioned in his email. The
Moonstone School's enrolment is expected to remain the same right throught 2015. Their numbers this
year are 220 students in Moonstone School and approx. 50 students in Coldwater P.S.
I also wanted to mention that although Keith Matheson feels that the road pattern of the two existing
subdivisions in Moonstone allow the children to walk through the subdivision to the school, this is not
possible. The only way the children could do that is if they walked through someone's property. At
present, the children cross with the crossing guard and turn and walk down the Moonstone Rd to either
Concession 8 or the other way to Ellen Drive. These are the only two ways the children enter the
subdivision. The cross -walk is situated at the only safe location for the cars to be able to see the
crossing guard when coming over the top of the hill, giving cars plenty of time to stop.
I would also like to give you my new email address for future correspondence. It is
lilaosbome @ svmnatico.ca
Thank you again, for your time and promptness in moving these issues forward.

MPAC Products Licence Agreement
Explanatory Notes O t
The following paragraphs have been developed to as a guide to summarize and clarify the terms and conditions of
MPAC's new licence agreement. Each paragraph relates to the numbered clause of the licence agreement.
1) Introduces the concept of a Product Use Sheet. The Product Use Sheets enable the municipality to sign a
foundation Licence covering all products and the Product Use Sheets, which provides the exceptions, terms
and conditions specific to each product.
2) Recognizes that all 24 paragraphs in the foundation Licence agreement apply to each product. However,
any provision of the foundation Licence can be overridden by the unique conditions that are reflected in the
Product Use Sheets.
3) Provides the municipality with a non - exclusive and non - transferable right to use MPAC products for the
following purposes.
• For the municipality's internal planning requirements in accordance with the provisions of Section 53
of the Assessment Act.
• To meet those municipal obligations where a statute specifies use of assessment roll data ("statutory
obligations "), such as under the:
i. Municipal Act — to issue property tax bills,
ii. Development Services Act, Drainage Act and other relevant Acts -to issue a notice by mail to an
owner at the address shown on the last revised assessment or, if applicable, to the address shown on
the notice of a change of ownership of land received by the clerk, and
• To better serve the needs of property taxpayers as outlined in the applicable Product Use Sheets.
4) Indicates that the municipality will not modify the Product except for those purposes identified in
Paragraph 3.
5) Re- enforces paragraph 3 and indicates that the municipality will not share any product, except where it is
required to meet its statutory obligations, municipal planning requirements or to provide enhanced service
to municipal taxpayers as outlined in the Product Use Sheet. Further, the municipality will not display
assessment - related data in a publicly accessible location without a signed MPAC Product Use Sheet.
6) Provides flexibility for the Municipality to engage a Consultant to: assist with municipal planning, to meet
a statutory obligation or provide enhanced service to taxpayers, providing MPAC is notified and the
Municipality has contractually bound the Consultant before the product is delivered to the Consultant.
7) Recognizes that MPAC is not necessarily the owner of all the data contained in the product. Further, it
recognizes that only designated individuals involved in the planning process or in meeting the
municipality's statutory obligations will use the product.
S) This paragraph recognizes that MPAC and/or its suppliers hold any copyright, intellectual and proprietary
rights to the products.
9) Reinforces that the municipality will ensure that the products are secure and protected from unauthorized
access.
10) While MPAC will endeavour to deliver consistently high quality products in a timely fashion, this
paragraph recognizes that problems or errors may occur and MPAC provides no guarantee or warranty for
the products.
No Mba 16.2006
11) Similar to paragraph 10, this paragraph recognizes that problems may occur and MPAC is not liable for late
delivery, problems or errors in the products. Additionally, it recognizes that the municipality is responsible
to MPAC and its suppliers should it breach this agreement. The municipality may wish to include similar
provisions in any sub - license agreements to ensure that the municipality is indemnified as well.
12) Similar to paragraphs 10 and 11, this paragraph contains specific disclaimers regarding the delivery of
products through MPAC's web site.
13) This paragraph recognizes that MPAC and its suppliers could suffer commercially by any unauthorized
product disclosure.
14) This paragraph is covered in MPAC's existing licence agreements. It has been expanded in the new
agreement and requires adherence to all relevant privacy and access to information laws and any privacy
guidelines issued by MPAC's suppliers.
15) Indicates that the municipality will maintain adequate records for at least two years and, if required, MPAC
may conduct an audit of the municipality's records and/or systems to ensure compliance with the
agreement. This clause is common in intellectual property licences and is a business requirement for
MPAC.
16) The municipality will ensure that any copyrights, ownership notifications and use restrictions are not
removed from the products.
17) This paragraph indicates that the Agreement will be terminated if the municipality continues to be in breach
of the Agreement after receiving notice from MPAC. Additionally, this paragraph recognizes that MPAC
could move for injunction to prevent continued breach.
18) Enforces the use of the product for the term of the Agreement (and for non - online products used beyond the
term) and indicates that the municipality will destroy the products if the Agreement is terminated.
19) The agreement is expressly confined for use by the municipality.
20) This sets out the term of The Agreement.
21) This paragraph completes the Agreement and clearly rules out any other "understandings" between the
parties. For example, if the terms and conditions are not included in the foundation agreement or product
use sheets, it is not part of the Agreement unless parties sign some form of amending documentation.
22) This paragraph indicates that if the Agreement is terminated, the cited paragraphs will continue to exist.
23) Indicates that the laws of Ontario govern this Agreement. If the Municipality retains a Consultant who is
based outside Ontario, the Municipality, in its contract engaging the Consultant, needs to ensure this clause
is included in the contract with the Consultant.
24) Added for completeness so parties know to whom and where any notices contemplated by the parties
should be sent.
