AW
The Information Age has created an electronics industry that is the fastest
growing manufacturing industry in the world. With this growth comes rapid
product obsolescence resulting in an ever-growing waste stream consisting of
electronic wastes or e-waste,,
The Problem
E-waste is growing 4 times faster than other waste streams
generating over 12 million tons in 2007 in the US alone. Only
12.5% of that waste is being recycled.
kr
a.
The bulk of e-waste ends up in municipal landfills or incinerators
that are not equipped to properly manaee toxic materials
%-a
Many companies, claiming to "recycle" e-waste, are actually
exporting to developing countries where toxic components are
�burned, dumped, or smashed apart by impoverished workers
and children without proper protection.
E-waste contains significant amounts of toxic or hazardous
materials such as heavy metals, brominated compounds
and polyvinyl chlorides, leaching toxins into the soil and
groundwater, causing crop deficiencies, birth defects, and
illness.
i
serious I
The is
Electronic product obsolescence has been cut in half from roughly four years to
approximately two years.
One computer becomes obsolete for every new one put on the
r7
market. I iii
By 2008, over 500 million obsolete computers will be
stockpiled in households and corporate warehouses in
North America. Every year over 20 million computers
will become obsolete A

Subject: Update - County of Simcoe Transportation Master Plan
Dear Ms. Zieleniewski:

SEP 2 .Is
s7"s'?"
Further to our previous letter regarding the initiation of the County of Simcoe Transportation
Master Plan, we would like to update you with respect to the public and stakeholder
consultation activities planned for the study.
As you are aware, a Notice of Study Commencement, was issued June 20, 2007. This
initiates the public consultation process for the study. Also in June 2007 letters were sent to
area municipalities and key agencies requesting nominations to participate in a Technical
Advisory Committee. I would like to thank you for nominating members of your
organization to participate in this important study. We are planning to convene this group
shortly for our first meeting.
As part of the next step of our consultation program, we have initiated a Public Attitude
Survey of County residents to gather some insight as to their issues and concerns with
respect to growth management and transportation in Simcoe. This survey will cover
approximately 600 residents of Simcoe County and will be conducted using a short telephone
interview, lasting about 10 minutes. The survey will be undertaken by Verifact Research, a
professional public opinion polling and survey research firm, that has undertaken a number
of similar surveys in the past.
Our consulting team has prepared a brief survey, comprised of 15 questions, that cover
various topics with respect to growth management and transportation. The survey will be
undertaken during the next few weeks. A copy of the survey questionnaire is attached for
your information. We would appreciate if you could inform your respective council
members and senior staff and your local press about the survey in case they receive enquiries
from the public. Any questions regarding the survey can be directed to Nathan Westendorp
at the County of Simcoe at (705) 726 -9300 extension 1360.
In addition to the Public Attitude Survey, the County has also decided to form a Municipal
Advisory Group, to provide enhanced opportunities for local municipalities to participate in
the study. The Municipal Advisory Group (MAG) will be comprised of municipal
councillors, with one representative from each of the municipalities in Simcoe County. The
MAG will provide a forum for sharing information, and obtaining input from local
municipalities throughout the study. It is anticipated that the MAG will convene two to three
times during the course of the study process, primarily in advance of planned public
information sessions and before major decisions or recommendations are finalized. This will
allow an opportunity for local municipalities to see a preview of the material being presented
M
Ms. Jennifer Zieleniewski, CAO
Township of Oro- Medonte

to the public, to ask questions of the consultant, and brief their respective councils. This
venue will also provide a forum for local municipalities to discuss issues and provide
comments on the study findings and recommendations.
On behalf of the County I would like to formally invite your organization to nominate one
representative to attend this committee on behalf of your organization. Our first meeting is
anticipated to be held in October 2007. An agenda will be sent out in advance.
I would like to thank you in advance for your assistance in this study. If you have any
questions concerning our request, or would like additional information about our study
please feel free to call our Consultant Project Manger, Ms. Adrienne Long at (905) 886 -7022
x 2367 or Mr. Nathan Westendorp at the County of Simcoe (705) 726 -9300 x 1360.

Drinking Water Source Protection Municipal Meeting — Severn Sound
September 18, 2007, Town of Midland Council Chambers 2pm
22 attendees representing: Tiny Township, Tay Township, Township of Oro - Medonte,
Town of Penetanguishene, Township of Severn, Township of Springwater, District of
Muskoka, Lake Simcoe Region Conservation Authority (LSRCA), South Georgian Bay —
Lake Simeoe Source Protection Region, and Severn Sound Environmental Association
(SSEA).
Minutes from the meeting:
Dave Parks, Chair of the SSEA welcomed everyone to the meeting.
Keith Sherman, Coordinator of the SSEA thanked everyone for attending and stated the
purpose of the meeting; to provide an overview of Source Water Protection &
Source Protection Committee (SPC) formation process for municipal members. On June
7, 2007 an information meeting was held in Orillia for the 52 municipalities in our source
protection region. Municipalities decided at that time that they would prefer watershed
based meetings to choose municipal members for the SPC.
Don Goodyear, Source Protection Manager for the watershed region, gave a presentation
on source protection updates and possible processes for the selection of municipal
members. (presentation attached)
• Regional description — 4 very different, diverse watersheds — presents challenges
with 52 municipalities, 3 First Nations within the region
• Products and timelines: The Source Protection Committee should be set up by
November 4th — 2 months from when notice went to CAO /Clerks with information
on municipal membership. The Source Protection Committee is charged with
producing three products: 1) Terms of Reference (who does what) by mid 2008;
2) Assessment Report (technical report of watershed) by the fall of 2009; 3)
Source Protection Plan — submitted to Minister in 2012. These products will be
developed with technical support from the core SWP staff, partner agencies, and
multiple advisory groups.
• Governance — Within our source protection region (of four watersheds) there will
be one Source Protection Committee (SPC) which will be responsible for
directing the development of the Terms of Reference, Assessment Report, and
h
u
Source Protection Plan including policy recommendations and risk reduction
strategies. There are three Source Protection Authorities (SPA): Lakes Simcoe &
Couchiching / Black River Source Protection Authority (Lead Authority for the
region), Nottawasaga Valley Source Protection Authority, and the Severn Sound
Source Protection Authority. The lead SPA is responsible for administering
budget and staff and all SPA's are responsible for reviewing and commenting on
the Terms of Reference, Assessment Report, the Source Protection Plan and
subsequent recommendations of those products to the Minister.
SPC Composition — the Committee will be made up of 25 stakeholders from the
region: one Chair, seven municipal representatives, seven members from
economic interests of the region ( 3 agriculture, 2 industrial /commercial, 1 golf
industry, 1 aggregate producer), and 7 other members which may include citizens
at large, community groups, environmental groups), and 3 seats available for First
Nations representatives.
The Chairs for all regions have been selected by the Minister. A press release will
be issued soon to announce the appointment of Lynn Dollin, Councillor for the
Town of Innisfil as Chair of our Source Protection Region.
Terms and Remuneration — The first SPC members are expected to remain on the
committee for a minimum of 5 years. It is anticipated that the time commitment
from members will be an average of 2 to 3 days per month. More time will be
required around the time that the products are produced — less time in between.
Members will be paid $200.00 per day /per diem plus travel expenses. Those funds
can be paid to the municipalities to compensate for staff time or directly to
members. We are aware that the term falls within a municipal election and there
are mechanisms in place to replace or maintain members, should that be required,
however there is a desire to maintain the original SPC until the first three products
are produced.
Discussion on Municipal Self - Nomination Process
Attendees discussed possible processes to nominate municipal members for the SPC.
There are three Source Protection Areas and each can choose their own process. Those in
attendance discussed and opted for an election process that is open, fair and equitable.
• Municipal nominees will fill out two documents — one form specifically outlining
their municipal experience and the second, an application form.
• Each municipality will choose a delegate that will come to a meeting on
November 2 "a — this delegate will have one vote.
• Each municipality will pass a resolution agreeing to the process (draft resolution
attached).
• Nomination forms will be forwarded to the municipal delegates to review.
• Two committee members will be chosen by a vote on November 2 °a
• Note: the SPA can appoint the members if consensus is not reached by the
municipalities.
J
Attendees also discussed nominating alternate members however, consensus could not be
reached in this meeting on whether or not alternates should be named or chosen in the
voting process.
It was agreed that the Severn Sound SPA will distribute the following materials to the
municipalities on or before September 28`h:
1. Minutes from this meeting
2. Draft Resolution for Council
3. Copies of Don Goodyear's presentation
4. A summary of the election process.

ATTN: Mayor Hughes & Council,
Dear Sirs,
The HVPOA Parks Committee has several potential donors expressing an interest in financially
supporting the 4th Line Park. We also wish to pursue possible grants. However, there is general
consensus that neither effort will be successful without a conceptual site plan.
Thus, it is urgent that a plan be developed by a landscape architect. Therefore, please accept this
correspondence as a request for the Township to utilize reserve funds to immediately commission
4th line park site plan.
Thanking you,

Subject: Blue Berry Marsh Road Off Road Vehicle Concerns
Correspondence (attached) was received from Mr. Michael Coley with concerns of Off Road Vehicles
using the unopened portion of Blue Berry Marsh Road to gain access to the Simcoe County Forest
located at the corner of Hwy 93 and County Road 19. An onsite meeting was held to review Mr.
Coley's concerns and inspect the damage to the right of way.
Mr. Coley's concerns appear to be very legitimate as ATV tracks have created a very distinct trail
along the unopened Marsh Road (or line 2) which passes Mr. Coleys residence within 50 feet of his
front door.
It is suggested that the following steps be considered to deter ATV usage at this location.
• Onsite meeting with OPP to upgrade enforcement
• Onsite meeting with North Simcoe ATV Executive
• Contact County of Simcoe By -Law Enforcement for assistance within this area
• Sign both ends of the unopened portion of Blue Berry Marsh Road

Dear Council Members, 0 A11 �

Michael P Coley.
326, Blueberry Marsh Road,
RR 1, Midland,
Ontario. L4R 4K3.
July 2 °d 2007.
We are Michael and J oley ( Roll No.4346- 020 -007 -00102 -0000)
Of Oro - Medonte Township. Our property was purchased in 1989 and our house built in
1997.
Legal description:- CON 3 PT 16. RP51R7164 Parts 3 & 4.
During the first years our property located at the dead end of Blueberry Marsh Road was
quiet and idyllic. However during the last 4 years there has been a sharp escalation in
" Off Road Vehicles" racing down our road and fence line. At times the noise and smell
from these vehicles is a real intrusion into our otherwise peaceful existence!
In questioning some of these people as to where they come from we find that they come
from as far away as Waverley, WyeBridge and Midland. And that they are using this
"Trail" to gain access to the Simcoe County Forest located at the comer of Hwy No 93
and Snncoe Road No 19. Their numbers have increased significantly this past year and
their activity is spoiling our enjoyment of our property!
Please be advised that the North/South portion of Blueberry Marsh Road is concession
No.2 of the Township of Oro - Medonte. There is a portion of Concession No.2 which runs
along our fence line and is owned by the Township. It is a very steep hill which is
probably why it has never been developed by the Township as a continuation of
Blueberry Marsh Road. There is a definate possibility of a serious injury involving one
or more of these young riders on dirt bikes racing up and down this hill! They are for the
most part riding on "Un- Licenced" vehicles with careless abandon.
This undeveloped section is largely bush and that is part of the attraction to these careless
users who display no regard for the disturbance they cause.
May we put forward a suggestion for council's consideration in helping us to resolve this
Untenable situation.
Item 1,
Positioning of barriers at each end of this "Un- assumed Township property" along our
fence line.
Item 2,
Signs to be installed at each end stating that this land is closed to recreation vehicles by
the Township of Oro - Medonte.
We feel that the barriers are necessary because the terrain cannot be properly policed or
monitored.
The cost of these signs and barriers we would gladly undertake we ask only for the _
Township's installation of same!
Is it possible for the appropriate Township representative to meet with us to review and
discuss our concerns on sight?
Further to the above we would welcome the opportunity to meet with council to present
our case and support our claim with relevant data and photograph's.
Respectfully submitted, yours sincerely,
Michael and Janet Coley.

(Former Medonte)
Application # 2007- ZBA -02
Date:
Roll #: 020 - 002 -07700
The purpose of this report is to consider a proposed Zoning By -law Amendment Application
submitted by Peter Duivenvoorden May 7, 2007. This rezoning application has been submitted
to fulfill a condition of approval for Consent Application 2005 -B -52, which was granted by the
Committee of Adjustment on February 15, 2007.
The rezoning application applies to the proposed residential lot that was conditionally approved
for severance from the applicant's overall 39.2 hectare land holding. The lot fronts on Line 4
North, approximately 0.4 km south of Moonstone Road. The lot is proposed to be severed from
a 39.2 hectare rural parcel, described as being Concession 5, West Part of Lot 15, in the
Township of Oro- Medonte (formerly Township of Medonte). The subject property is forested,
where the proposed severed lot contains a small watercourse flowing south to north through the
middle portion of the property. The subject lands are currently vacant. As part of provisional
approval for the Consent application, the applicant must apply for and obtain a rezoning for the
future lot, which will reflect the intended residential use of the property. The subject lands are
proposed to be rezoned from the Agricultural /Rural (A/RU) Zone to the Rural Residential Two
"Hold (RUR2[H]) Zone (see attached schedule). The purpose for the Holding provision is
discussed below.
OFFICIAL PLAN:
The lands subject to the rezoning are designated Rural by the Official Plan, and is contained
with the Environmental Protection Two Overlay. Section C2.3.1 of the Official Plan permits one
residential severance provided that the subject lands a) exceed 36 hectares in size, and b) a
severance has not been granted after March 23, 1973.
With respect to the Environmental Protection Two (EP2) overlay, the applicant was required to
prepare an Environmental Impact Study (EIS) in support of the proposed severed lot. The EP2
overlay contains policies aimed at protecting natural features such as woodlands, regionally -
significant areas of natural or scientific interest, wildlife habitat, and fish spawning /nursery
areas. The EIS was reviewed by the County of Simcoe and the Nottawasaga Valley
Conservation Authority, where the Township received written statements of "No Objection" from
the NVCA on January 10, 2007, and from the County on February 12, 2007. The lot is intended
to be used for single detached dwelling, which constitutes a permitted use in the Rural
Designation.
ANALYSIS:
The Zoning By -law Amendment Application will rezone the lot from the Agricultural /Rural (A/RU)
Zone to the Rural Residential Two *Hold (RUR2[H]) Zone to accurately reflect the intended
residential use of the property. The lot will have a frontage of 100 metres, a depth of 100
metres, and an area of 1 hectare. These dimensions are in keeping with the requirement of the
RUR2 Zone, where the minimum frontage required is 45 metres, and the minimum lot area for a
residential use is 0.4 hectares.
Through consultation with the Nottawasaga Valley Conservation Authority, the applicant has
been working on various site plan configurations for the proposed lot, in response to NVCA
concerns raised at the time of review of the EIS. The basis of the NVCA's "no objection"
response was based on the applicant providing a site plan that depicts "a building envelope with
maintains a 30 metre setback from the watercourse traversing the severed parcel; an
appropriate development setback from the Butternut Tree (endangered species) on the
property; and a sediment & erosion control plan ". Since the date of application in May, the
applicant has submitted several conceptual site plans depicting "developable areas" of the
property, and required buffering, etc. from the natural features discussed above. The applicant
will be required to enter into a Site Plan Agreement at the time of building permit, including the
removal of the Holding provision; this condition of severance was included to ensure that the
conditions of the NVCA were met prior to the issuance of a building permit. At this time, the
applicant has submitted a revised conceptual site plan that meets with NVCA requirements with
respect to the protection of natural features on the proposed severed lot.
As the applicant is actively working toward clearance of the conditions of Consent, it is
appropriate for Zoning By -law Amendment Application 2007- ZBA -02 to proceed to a statutory
Public Meeting at this time.

RECOMMENDATION(S):
It is recommended:
1. THAT Report BP 2007 -038 Re: Zoning By -law Amendment for Peter Duivenvoorden,
West Part of Lot 15, Concession 5, ( Medonte), Township of Oro - Medonte, be
received.
2. THAT Zoning By -law Amendment Application 2007- ZBA -02, West Part of Lot 15,
Concession 5, ( Medonte), Township of Oro - Medonte, proceed to a Statutory Public
Meeting in accordance with the provisions of the Planning Act.

For the interest and information of members of Council, the following report encompasses
information on the activities and efforts of the members of the Fire and Emergency Services
Department.
ANALYSIS:
This has been an eventful and fruitful year for the members of the Department and for the community at large,
with several meaningful successes and benchmarks being met.
For your interest, attached to this Report is a listing of our Emergency Response activities to the end of August,
2007, broken down by call type and with a comparison to our calls in 2006.
The first quarter of the year was a busy one in terms of emergency incidents. In the first three months of this
year, the Department battled several structure fires, extinguishing 14 fires overall. Winter road conditions
caused quite a number of incidents for us as we responded to 56 vehicle collisions in this time, but luckily had
to forcibly extricate the victims in only two of those cases.
In late January, the Department took possession of a new Pumper for Fire Station No. 6 [Moonstone]. The new
truck was equipped and the staff trained by the Manufacturer [E -One] in early February and the truck was put
into service the middle of the month. We have been working with E -One throughout the summer to work out
some `bugs' on the truck and have recently completed that work. The crew at Stn. 6 are very proud of their new
rig and confident that it will serve them for a long time to come.
Also in January, we undertook maintenance work identified in a review of our Self Contained Breathing��
Apparatus [SCBA]. We contracted with a service provider to perform on -site maintenance of our 45 units. We
found during this maintenance that only two of the units passed the Function Test and two of our units were
degraded to the point that theyhad to be permanently removed from service. We ensured that the remainder of
the units were repaired, tested and placed back in service.
Our ice rescue boat had only one call this past winter and was dispatched to Lake Simcoe near the 7`h line to
assist with a local fisherman whose ATV had become mired in slush and had gotten himself into some distress
trying to get it free.
This spring we hired our second class of recruits and conducted a, `recruit school,' training the new volunteers
before sending them to their new stations. These staff each received over 60 hours of training including `live-
fire,' training at the Ontario Fire College in Gravenhurst. We are very happy with the results of this new style of
training and have been pleased with the progress the new fire fighters have made and the positive impact the
greater number of staff are having on our response capabilities.
In early May, we took possession of two new Tankers, built by Metalfab industries in Centreville, New
Brunswick, for replacement of the Tankers in Stn 3 and 5. We did several things differently with these new
apparatus. Firstly, the design of the new trucks was completed with a lot of input from the staff from stations 3
and 5, so that they could address their needs and be informed on the progress. We worked with the
manufacturer throughout the process making some amendments and improvements as opportunities allowed.
When the trucks were nearing completion in April, Captain Murray MacDonnell from Stn. 5 and District Chief
Peter VanMuyen from Stn. 3 travelled to New Brunswick to perform the final inspections on the tricks to be
sure that everything was as ordered and the trucks were ready to be delivered to their new stations. This process
has paid many dividends to us in terms of the overall quality of the trucks and helped us both with the placing of
the trucks into service and the lack of any major problems once we received the vehicles. If one asks a member
of Stn's 3 or 5 what they think of their new rigs, there are a lot of smiles evident as they tell you all about them.
In May, the Department received its Certificate of Compliance from the Office of the Ontario Fire Marshal
under its' Municipal Fire Protection Information Survey. This audit process demonstrates that the Department
is meeting the minimum requirements of the Fire Prevention and Protection Act by providing the required mix
of Public Education, Fire Prevention Inspections and Emergency Service delivery to the community. On May
1$`s, Fire Protection Advisor Peter Jobe presented the Certificate to Council at their regular meeting.
We took possession of ten new SCBA and twenty new SCBA cylinders to modernize our equipment and
provide more of this much - needed item. Part of the two year program, this now gives us a total of 53 units,
allowing us to begin to meet our requirements in terms of total number of SCBA required.
One of our major goals this year has been achieving Certification for our Tanker Shuttle system. In February we
secured a date for testing from the Fire Underwriter's Survey section of Canadian General Insurance. A team of
our volunteers assembled to plan, train and execute the Certification. This group met several times, planning
and practicing the evolutions required to successfully deliver water from its' source to the `scene' of a fire, with
a minimum round trip distance of 10 kilometres.
The basic Certification requires the Department to deliver 900 litres per minute for two hours. I am pleased to
report that during our testing on June 2nd this year we more than doubled the minimum requirement, providing
1925 litres per minute. This provides the Township a `Commercial' rating meaning that our water delivery is
considered sufficient to be able to fight fires in commercial -sized buildings.
6A
The benefits to the community are very measurable. Firstly, we have developed a program that has improved
our ability to deliver water wherever needed anywhere in the Township. By doing this we have improved our
abilities to rescue during a fire and to attack a fire earlier and provide a better level of property conservation. We
have provided direct financial benefits to all our property owners through reductions in fire insurance that vary
from 15 -40% per year depending on their insurance carrier.
In June of this year, our Headquarters returned to Fire Station No. 3 at Horseshoe Valley. We have made
numerous improvements to the station to accommodate our return, including the lease of a new
photocopier /printer unit, improvements to the telephone system and some structural and cosmetic improvements
to the station itself.
We have begun to revise the Townships' Emergency Response Plan. Working for the past year with the County
of Simcoe, our new plan will dovetail with the County Plan to provide services to the community that the we
could not provide alone such as emergency social services, sheltering and functions performed by the Medical
Officer of Health, especially during a health - related event.
Our Fire Prevention activities continue as well. So far this year, we have conducted 87 fire prevention
inspections, up slightly from 83 at this time Last year. New legislation has required us to take a harder line on
the use and maintenance of smoke alarms and the Department laid its' first charge for tampering with a smoke
alarm this year.
In preparation for Fire Prevention Week in October, a team of fire fighters has been assembled and is preparing
a program for this year that will include open houses at each fire station, the offering of home fire safety
inspections and the use of our fire safety trailer, in conjunction with our neighbouring fire departments.
We have completed a promotional process for Captain and will be promoting eight new Captains in coming
months to fill vacancies and will be recognizing the achievements of these newly promoted Officers this fall.
Training with our new Plan for all Department Heads, Council and other staff will take place late this fall
Several of our volunteers have been recognized this year for long service to the community.
• Fire Fighter Ron Robinson - Provincial Fire Services Long Service- 40 -year bar, Canadian Fire Services
Exemplary Service Medal -40 year bar;
• District Chief Robert Bowman- Provincial Fire Services Long Service- 30 -year bar, Canadian Fire
Services Exemplary Service Medal -30 year bar;
• Fire Fighter Wayne Abbott- Canadian Fire Services Exemplary Service Medal[for 25 yrs of service];
• District Chief Rick Collacci- Provincial Fire Services Long Service Medal [for 20 yrs of service].
We continue to strive to deliver quality services in a timely fashion. Our average response time for the 361 calls
this year has been twelve minutes, twenty eight seconds, on par with 2006. Weekday responses challenge the
Department as they challenge all volunteer organizations whose staff is generally at work when these calls
occur. We have been working to address this issue by selecting qualified recruit candidates who, wherever
possible, live and work in the Township and are available to leave work when they're needed.
This fall, the Department plans to conduct several important programs. On September 22nd we will begin our
first -ever Company Officer training program which will provide much - needed training to our Captains and
District Chiefs on their legislated responsibilities as well as formal Incident Command, Fire Prevention and
other training.
CM
We are also planning our next Recruitment Drive. We currently have 17 vacancies across the Department and
will be working to fill them with well - qualified and highly - available members of our community.
In closing, we can report that the Department is moving forward in a positive fashion, and is striving as a unified
force, providing a solid level of quality service. We continue to work to improve our services, to meet emerging
demands and to be ready to protect the community at all times.
