A recent ad was viewed 605 times and clicked through 15 times. This is great exposure and needs to be promoted more effectively to members.

Action: Carol will prepare a notice for the newspaper and the newsletter reminding members of the advertising opportunities on our website, emphasizing the value of promoting their business to local web viewers. ~E z Council Update Councilor Coutanche provided the following updates from the Township 1. In 2008, the Township is adopting "Pride In Service" as a high priority for Staff and Council. This priority will have the appropriate assessments, training and reinforcement processes applied to ensure success. 2. The Township leadership has embarked on "realignment" and "focusing" processes. This includes the help of professional Consultants, to assist with alignment with the Mandate, Budget prioritization, and pay far performance. 3. Initial indications are that the 2008 Budget increase could be close to double digits. All funded activities (such as the O-M Chamber of Commerce) will be scrutinized. 4. The formalization of the O-M Chamber being the Economic Development arm of the Township is being reinforced by both Mayor Hughes and CAO Robin Dunn. Council liaisons (Mel C far 2007-2008) and Dwight Evans for 2009-2010} will work with the O- MChamber Board to ensure that this happens. This initiative involves an already established, growing and strong organization (the O-M Chamber] and is a better alternative to creating an Ecanamic Development Advisory Committee.

Carol hopes to have all the events booked for the year by the AGM. 5. Rick presented information on the Seasons Centre for Grieving Children Gala Fundraiser. One of our members who is involved in this charity has asked if the Township and the Chamber would like to assist in sponsoring the event. Discussion followed regarding the appropriateness of the chamber to support particular charities and use members' funds in that way. Linda pointed out that we do not have a budget line that could cover the level of involvement they are looking for. Lisa indicated that Chamber members all have charities of choice and choose to donate to the in their own way. It was decided that Carol will put together an information package to send to the membership to make them aware of the event and possibility of several businesses getting together to sponsor the event on same level. We will also help to promote the event on our calendar of events. 6. Carol and Rick will participate in the Qrillia Chamber of Cammeree "Networking with you Community Partners" Luncheon to consolidate and clarify relationships and roles.

Via Email, Hard Copy to Follow in Mail November 19, 2007 The Honourable Peter Fonseca Ministry of Tourism Hearst Block, 9"' Flr 900 Bay Street Toronto, ON M7A 2E1 Dear Honourable Fonseca: RE: Shanty eav Community Hall In the late 1970's, the Shanty Bay Community Association (SBCA) was preparing to construct a new community hall in the village of Shanty Bay. Before plans were finalized, the Simcoe County District School Board (SCDSB) approached the SBCA to enter into a joint venture. The SBCA was asked to contribute funds realized from the sale of their existing hall, and other fundraising efforts, to construct a joint facility connected to the existing Shanty Bay Public School, located in the village. The facility would serve as a community hall outside of school hours while serving the students during the school day. The Ministry was also a partner in the venture that was heralded at the time as being a model for communities across Ontario to emulate. The Ministry's grant contribution resulted in the three partners each contributing approximately one-third of the cost. The Township assisted with bridge financing and has provided administrative assistance. After more than twenty years of a highly successful partnership, the SCDSB applied for a building permit for alterations that would change the majority of the community room into a full time administrative area. This proposed alteration would change the use of the facility so that it could no longer function as a community hall. The SCDSB has cited Safe School's legislation, as the rationale far making alterations. The SCDSB has funding from the Ministry of Education and has other options that would enable Shanty Bay Public School to meet the Safe School's legislation and permit the facility to continue as a community hall. It appears unlikely that the Ministry of Education's funding for Safe Schools anticipated it being applied in a manner that would disregard the purpose of an earlier grant and fail to comply with Section 10 of the Community Recreation Centres Act. _~_ One of the major uses of the community hall is to provide a centre for seniors. A large number of seniors who currently use the facility are those who are in excess of seventy years of age and were partners in the initial agreement. After more than twenty years, many of these same seniors continue to serve the interests of the community through volunteer fund raising to uphold the SBCA commitment. Section 10 of The Community Recreation Centres Act, 1974 states that "no municipality, board, band or approved corporation that has been paid a grant under S. fi or 9 in respect of a community recreation centre shall change the site or use of the community centre or seil, lease, mortgage or otherwise dispose of any part of or interest in the community recreation centre without the approval of the Minister." Due to the timing of the original agreement, the Shanty Bay Community Hall was not impacted by the legislation being repealed in 2002. Permitting the SCDSB to alter the Shanty Bay Community Centre to the extent that the plans for the building permit reveal would change the use of the facility; thus removing an essential community service. The Township of Oro-Medante respectfully supplicates that your Ministry not grant approval to the proposed changes to the Shanty Bay Community Centre or, as a condition for receiving approval, that the SCDSB be required to compensate the SBCA appropriately. This would enable continued access to the existing community hall ar the community to recuperate its investment and enable the original intent of building a community hall to move forward. Copies of this correspondence have been circulated to members of the Provincial Legislature with responsibilities relating to this request. Thank you for your kind attention to this matter.

File #: RECOMMENDATION(S): Requires Action Far Information Only It is recommended that: Report No. BP 2008-006 be received and the staff recommendations with respect to amendments to By-law 2005-119 "Animal Control By-law" be approved and adopted. 2. THAT the Glerk brings forward, for Council's consideration, the appropriate By-law to consolidate the Animal Contra) By-law and amendments. 3. AND THAT the OSPCA be thanked for their input in the review of the Animal Control By-law and advised of Council's decision in the matter. BACKGROUND: Dog owners within the Municipality are required to register each dog owned within the Township. Registration is achieved by purchasing a licensing dog tag and the annual deadline is March 1St. The Assistant By-law Officer Position has historically been filled by a student enrolled in a Law and Security Program or through the Police Foundation. This Position monitors and sells dog licenses throughout the Municipality. The Animal Control By-law states that every person who contravenes any provision of this By-law is guilty of an offence and shall be liable to a fine; set fines are $100.00 per offense (Attachment ~). The Orillia Branch of the OSPCA provides the Township with the necessary services to enforce the Animal Control By-law as per By-law 2007-045. The City of Barrie provides administration, court support and prosecution for such offenses under the POA Partners Service Agreement. One hundred percent of all By- law Offense fines are remitted to the Township on a quarterly basis. BUILDING AND PLANNING DEPARTMENT February 6, 2008 Report No. BP 2008-006 Page 1 of 4 ANALYSIS: Staff initiated a review of the Township's By-law No. 2005-119 to "Regulate, License and Control Animals with the Township of Oro-Medonte" (Atfachmenf 2) as part of the on-going process of ensuring that Township By-laws remain current. The C?ntario Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals provided comments an the Animal Control By-law based on their enforcement and field experience. The following items have been compiled for Council's review and consideration: Section 2.0 Definitions Current: 2.4 `Breeding" shall mean the generation of offspring resulting in pure-bred dogs. Staff Analysis: The OSPCA explained to staff that there is an increased public interest in non- purebred (or non-registered) dogs such as Cockapoo, Goldendoodle, and Schnoodle to name a few. A Kennel to breed non-purebred offspring can operate without being licensed with the By-law's current definition of breeding. With this latest awareness it would seem that limiting the definition of breeding to strictly purebreds jeopardizes one of the By-law's mandates to regulate and license establishments for the breeding of dogs within the Township. Staff Recommendation: That Section 2.17 be deleted and the remainder of the Section renumbered accordingly. That Section 2.4 be amended to read: "Breeding" shall mean the generation offspring. Schedule "A" -Dog Licensing Fees Current (as of March 1, 2006): Dog Licensing Fees * For one dog (male or female) * For one dog spayed or neutered * Replacement dog tag $ 25.00 $ 20.00 $ 2.00 BUILDING AND PLANNING DEPARTMENT Report No. BP 2008-006 February 6, 2008 Page 2 of 4 Staff Analysis: The Assistant By-law Officer monitors and enforces compliance for current dog registration by patrolling to households that have purchased the previous year's license but not the current years. Currently dog owners who purchase a dog license tag after the March 1St deadline pay the appropriate dog license fee only. A late payment fee, similar to repealed By-law 2042-076, should encourage compliance with Appendix "A" Section 1.4 for dog owners to renew the dog license by the deadline. A five year comparison of the annual dog tag revenue (Attachment 3) indicates a slight revenue decline. Re-implementing this fee would help increase this revenue and offset the By-law Department's operational costs. Staff Recommendation: That Schedule A, Dog Licensing Fees be amended to include: Dog owners who do not renew their dog license on or before March 1St shall be subject to an additional $14.44 late payment fee.

File #: RECOMMENDATION(S): Requires Action~X For Information Only It is recommended that: 1. THAT Report Na. BP 2008-008 be received and adopted. 2. THAT the Clerk brings forward the appropriate By-law, for Council's consideration, to enter into a 2 year contract with the OSPCA. 3. AND THAT the OSPCA be advised of Council's decision. BACKGROUND: Township of Oro-Medonte By-law 2005-119, enacted December 21, 2005, regulates, licenses, and controls animals within the municipality. The Ontario Society far the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (OSPCA) has provided the Township of Oro-Medonte with the necessary services to enforce the Animal Control By-law since 1997. A Pound Keeper and an Animal Control Officer are provided by the OSPCA to respond to nuisance complaints and after hour emergency calls. The OSCPA handles all Provincial Offences charges laid under the Township Animal Control By-law which has an associated fine of $100.00 for each related offense. The City of Barrie collects these fines and provides a prosecutor as required, under the POA Partners Service Agreement. The Township is remitted 100% of by-law fines on a quarterly basis. BUI<_DING AND PLANNING DEPARTMENT February 6, 2008 Report No. BP 2008-006 Page 1 of 4 The animal shelter, which is operated and maintained by the OSPCA, is capable of providing adequate accommodation for all animals impounded. Animals delivered to the shelter by an Animal Control Officer are received, impounded and held for claiming by the owners. The OSPCA provides their Animal Control Officers will all the necessary ~ vehicles and equipment. ANALYSIS: An annual summary of the OSPCA contract fees (Attachment 1) combined with an annual summary of services provided (Attachment 2) by the OSPCA, supports the fact that the Township service levels are being fulfilled and that the OSPCA provides an efficient means of animal control. The OSPCA has submitted a proposed 3-year contract (Attachment 3) to continue providing animal control and pound keeping services to the Township of Oro-Medonte with the following proposed contract modifications: OSPCA Proposed Modification #7: Ati impound and License fees be retained by the OSPCA, Impound Fee Staff Commentary: This modification was proposed in 2007 and staff comments remain the same as follows. Impound and destruction fees have been previously divided equally between the OSPCA and Township. Total amounts collected were $1,350.00 in 2007, $1,200.00 in 2006, and $250.00 in 2005. The Animal Control By-law sets the pound fee at $50.00 and has a provision that the owner maybe liable for additional maintenance fees which generally includes a boarding fee set by the OSPCA of $9.00 per day. It would be suggested that if additional fees are required by the OSPCA that they considered increasing their boarding fees. License Fee Staff Commentary: This modification was proposed for the 2007 contract and staff addressed the proposal by granting the OSPCA the same commission ($2.00 per tag) provided to all other locations selling dog tags on behalf of the Municipality. This service has historically been included in the administration fee of the contract and is suggested that this continue. The impact of providing the OSPCA with 100% of the dog tag revenue would be approximately $2, 000.00 per year. OSPCA Proposed Modification #2: The Township provide legal counsel to defend aN charges laid on their behalf, Staff Commentary: This modification is not necessary as the Township of Oro- Medonte currently provides a prosecutor for Part 1 offences which include by- lawinfractions as part of the POA Partner Service Agreement with the City of Barrie. The Corporation has also previously supported and provided a prosecutor for Dog Owner's Liability Act (Part 3ticket/summons) related charges BUILDING AND PLANNING DEPARTMENT February 6, 2008 Report No. BP 2008-006 Page 2 of 4 but asks that these be discussed before proceeding with charges. It is recommended that these provisions remain unchanged. OSPCA Praposed Modification #3: We enter into a three year contract, with the following contract increases; 2008 - 75%, 2009 - 3°l, 2070 - 3l Staff Commentary: It has been confirmed with the OSPCA that the cat impoundment and spay/neuter program fees, which was an additional $2,000.04 above the contract amount in 2007, is now included within the Praposed contract amount and therefore calculates into an actual cantract increase of 9.071 for 2408 with a subsequent 3% for the year(s) fallowing. if is staff's opinion that the Orillia Branch of the OSPCA delivers an excellent service to the Corporation and ratepayers and therefore believes the proposed contract amount is reasonable considering staffing, facilities and equipment requirements to operate. Furthermore, it is staff's opinion that Council considers entering into a 2 year contract to allow for any future considerations. FINANCIAL: As noted above. POLICIES/LEGISLATION: Township of Oro-Medonte Animal Control By-law, as amended Livestock, Poultry and Honey Bee Protection Act, as amended Animals for Research Act, as amended Pounds Act, as amended Dog Owner's t_iability Act, as amended Health Protection and Promotion Act, as amended Municipal Act, as amended CONSULTATIONS: The Ontario Society far the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals ATTACHMENTS: Attachment 1: Annual summary of the OSPCA contract fees Attachment 2: Annual summary of services provided by the OSPCA Attachment 3: OSPCA letter far 2008 contract proposal BUILDING AND PLANNING DEPARTMENT February 6, 2008 Report No. BP 2008-006 Page 3 of 4 CONCLUSION: It is staffs view that the OSPCR proposal will continue to provide the necessary requirements and level of services the Corporation requires to enforce the Animal Control By-law and is therefore recommended as noted above.

The ()ntaria SPCA is taking a hard look at the profitability ofthe contacts we service and have identified a number of contract that, aver the years, the fees have not kept pace with the increased casts and animal volumes. The cantract currently in place for your Township has been identified as one that falls under this category. We da value the relationship our two organizations have shared aver the years and do wish to continue our relationship your community,. but we find that we cannot do so at the current. compensation rate. Qur organization as a whale reties primarily upon donations from the public to operate our shelters and fund the majority ofaur investigations division, Municipal contracts are an area we are involved in that does not fulfill our mandate and is done as a means to assist us in supporting the other areas of our operation, It is only because of the current infrastructure we have in place that we can deliver this serc~ce at what we believe to be a very ecanamical costta municipalities, Clnly when the municipal cantract price is in line with the animal and servicing cost will our shelters be able io operate unabated. It is far this reason it is necessary to request a ane time market adjustment of 15°lo in ZOOS and then return back to the modest 3 0lo annual. increase. To this end we have three contact modifications that we would like to propose; I } all impound and license fees besetained by the (]SPCA 2) the Township provide legal counsel to defend all charges laid on their behalf 3) we enter into a three year cantract, with the fallowing contract increasees; 200$ - 1 S%, 2Ut?9 - 3%, 2010 - 3°!0 o~Ta~~o~PA PHOiECT1tdG RN MAiS 5. 16588 Waadhine Avenue RR 3, Newmerkei, 0{V l3Y dw1 TeI:i9D5}gg8-?t22 t 886 ON7-SPCA !688.7722) Paz: (905}853-8643 inia~?aspca.an.ce evww.onTariaspc~r.ea Chxdt~bie Negiszrazinn r 8ii~i9144a HiiatlO?

File #: Valley Road RECOMMENDATION(S): Requires Action For Information Only It is recommended: 1. THAT Report No. BP 2008-009 be received and adopted; 2. THAT the request made by Mr. Jeremy Nixon on behalf of Simcoe County Condominium Corporation No. 35 for a reduction in fees not be supported. BACKGROUND: Last year, several building permit applications were filed with the Township respecting the replacement of decks in the condominium building located on the north side of Horseshoe Valley Road, across from Horseshoe Resort. The decks are exclusively accessed via each individual unit, however they are owned jointly by the condominium corporation. This is normal practice in same condominium buildings in other jurisdictions who can control the use of the balconies specifically storage and how this affects the appearance of the development. The contractor has submitted a concern respecting how the fees were calculated (refer to attached correspondence) which has been referred for staff far a report. ANALYSIS: The Township's Fees and Charges By-law is intended to capture the costs of process and review of permit applications. Consistent with the authority provided under the Building Code Act, such fees are based on acost-recovery formula which is designed to off-set the staff time allocated to such projects. Building and Planning Services February 6, 2008 Report No. BP 2008-010 Page 1 of 2 A fatal of 9 units were affected by these 39 building permit applications. 26 units had one deck, and 13 units had two decks, far a fatal of 52 decks. In addition to the plans examination of each permit file (office review), three building inspections were conducted far 15 decks, and two inspections were conducted for 37 decks. Therefore, the office review comprised 39 files, and a fatal of 119 on-site building inspections. In accordance with the Fees and Charges By-law, the fee for each deck is $100 (52 x $1(74 ar $5,200), as well as a charge of $25 occupancy use permit per individual property (39 x $25 or $975) for a total building permit fee of $6,175. As a comparison, staff have done an informal survey of local municipalities Wane of whom based the permit fees on a percentage of construction basis as the applicant has suggested. It is noted that recommended fee-far-service adjustments are forthcoming following the Building and Planning Department process review to examine whether amendments are appropriate. FINANCIAL: n/a POLICIES/LEGISLATION: Building Code Act CONSULTATIONS: Adjacent municipalities ATTACHMENTS: Correspondence from Mr. Jeremy Nixon dated June 14, 2007 CONCLUSION: The charges for building permit review are intended to capture the staff time for the administration, office review and on-site inspection costs incurred by the Township. It is staff's view that the costs borne by the proponent for this project represent a fair fee based on the service provided.

As part of this project our contractor has applied for and obtained a building permit as required by present legislation. We would not dispute that indeed a building permit is required tar this project, but rather we would dispute the overall cost and method of calculation, which we believe to be in error, To date we have reviewed the matter with the chief building official, Mr. Michael P. Diver, who has advised that we would further be required to bring the matter to your attention. Specifically 39 individual permits, numbered >3P103I07 - BP116107 and 13~P118/07 -- IIP142107 relate to this project at a total cost of X10,075.00, of which we understand $3,900 relates to "C3ccupancy Deposits" that are refundable at the conclusion of the project, resulting in a net fee of $6,175.00. On a total estimated project cost of $147,172.08 including a 10°/© contingency and 6% GST this relates to a net building pern~it cost of 4,2°r'o on the overall value of the contract. Furthermore the structural portion arzly, which relates to the actual balcony replacement, is X97,562.40 with the 6°1o GST, which would relate to a net building pern~it east of 6.3°f~ on the structural portion only. In our experience in other municipalities building permit fees are calculated on a percentage of the structural portion of the contract basis, usually in the order of 1 °10, which in this instance would related to fees in the range of S 1,000-$1,500. Through our earlier correspondence with Mr. Diver it is our understanding that the 39 individual units with balcony access were considered as individual entities for permit purposes, with each unit beaag subject to minimum fens. It is this method of calculation that in our opinion is in error for the following reasons: t~etit=tnc~rlret wtvti,~. trrown6eattie. cram Guelph (9Q5) 476 Q275 1519) 8271 ?57 Firx: 476 4745 Brown & Beaftie Ltd.

In fact there is a single contract with the Condominiut~r Corporation. • The Condominium by-lags indicate that the balconies are ow73ed by the Condominium Corporation as a ~xrhole. It is therefore our contention that only ~~ single pe~~nit should have been issued to the single entity that owns all of the balconies, namely Simcoe Condominium Corporation No. 35. Resultantly only a single minimum fee and otherevise a percentage calculation on the overall contract value should considered.

File #: Township of Oro-Medonte RECOMMENDATION{S): Requires Action For Information Only It is recommended: 1. THAT Report No. BP 2007-046 be received; 2. THAT Report No. BP 2008-010 be received and adapted; 3. THAT the existing ground sign be removed from the lands zoned Environmental Protection; 4. AND THAT the proponent proceed with obtaining building permits for the remainder of the signs from the Township Building Department. BACKGROUND: On November 7, 2007, Council considered report no. BP 2007-046 concerning commercial signage on the above referenced lands. At that time, Council deferred the matter pending a site visit, which was to help verify the extent of the EP lines and review passible alternative solutions with the proponent. A site visit has subsequently taken place with the undersigned, Mayor Hughes and Ward Councillor Evans along with the proponent to review the signage in detail. The site visit determined that the EP lines in this area of the Township, reflect lands which are partially higher especially to the north of the subject property. It is acknowledged that the construction of the highway corridor some years ago has had major impacts on the drainage in this area. ANALYSIS: Staff are in the process of reviewing all EP lines in the Township in the context of the Zoning By-law review process. Ta this end, staff recommend that the extent of the EP Building and Planning Services February 6, 2008 Report No. BP 2008-010 Page 1 of 2 lines be altered to recognize the higher ground. This would allow far the retention of the Skyline Marine billboard sign an the smaller lot of record. The owner still requires a building permit to recognize this sign. In respect of the Shaw's Catering ground sign, staff cannot support the alteration of EP lines in this area. These lands are low lying and exhibit marshy conditions therefore staff recommend that the sign be removed. While it is acknowledged that there may be site disturbance due to its removal, it may be prudent to access the property if possible during the winter months when ground conditions have frost. Otherwise, staff support a time period far compliance of 12 months to allow far a summer removal if that is preferred. FINANCIAL: n!a POLICIESILEGISLATION: nta CONSULTATIONS: n/a ATTACHMENTS: Report No. BP 2007-046 CONCLUSION: Given the drainage patterns in the vicinity of the signage in question, staff can support the retention of the Skyline Marine billboard sign. The Shaw's ground sign, however, is located on lands that are appropriately zoned EP therefore this sign is not allowed. Staff have reviewed this with the proponent who has indicated that alternate locations exist on the property and is agreeable to relocation of this sign.

The owner subsequently forwarded a request regarding the matter to Council and at its meeting of August 15, 2007 the request was received and referred the matter to staff far a report. The purpose of this report is to consider the request and make recommendations to Councii as to the disposition of the matter. The subject property is located on the south side of Highway 11, between Lines 12 and i 3 as noted on Appendix `°A" attached hereto. ANALYSIS: The applicant's property is two separate landholdings, one being a small triangular property which is currently vacant and is primarily wooded. This triangular site is approximately 7.3 acres in size. The larger property supports the proponent's dweNing and main farm operation, which accesses the property off Line 13 South. This larger property is approximately 77.7 acres in area. A site visit conducted by staff indicates that there are currently two billboard signs on the 7 acre property, and two billboard signs an the larger landholding. The two signs an the smaller site have been canstructed recently, while the two others have been erected many years ago. A third billboard sign has recently been removed which was utilized as part of the recent Provincial election campaign. No sign permits have been applied for nor issued for any of the signage on the properties. ~i~ The Township regulates signage in the Municipality under By-law No. 2005-118. In the cases where there is more than one road authority such as MTCJ or the County, the By-law states that the more strict policy prevails, In the case of Mr. Shaw, MTC} regulates signage however their policy is more permissive therefore the Township By-law prevails in this ease. Among other matters, By-law 2006-118 states that only one billboard sign per lot is permitted in the A/RU Zone. The large parcel currently contains two billboard signs however these are considered grandfathered given these have been in place for some time. hla additional billboard signs are available for this property. A ground sign is also permitted in the A/RU Zane, and unlike billboard signs which advertises third party goads or products, ground signs are intended to advertise a business an the property. These are historically a pylon type sign which are attached to the ground with ane or more supports. It is staff's view while the existing business sign appears like a billboard sign, it would qualify as a ground sign given the advertised product is the proponent's awn business. To this end, the provided the graund sign continues advertises his business, a sign~permit is available for the larger agricultural parcel, subject to MTC} approval. Regarding the signs recently constructed on the smaller parcel, this property is zoned Environmental Protection, an which signs of any fashion are not permitted. (ane of the signs an this property advertises the proponent's business, therefore this could be relocated to the north and qualify as a stand-alone ground sign. The other sign is classified as a billboard sign as is not permitted in the EP Zone. It is noted that ane of the existing billboard signs on the larger property is a two sided "V" shaped sign, and ane pane! is vacant. Twa sided signs or "V" shaped signs are considered as ane sign under the By-law, therefore the option exists to relocate the non-complying billboard sign face to this blank panel. __ - RECC)MMENDATI4N S 1. THAT Report No. BP 2007-046 be received and adapted; 2. THAT the prapanent be encouraged to submit a sign permit application to relocate the existing graund sign an the 7 acre property to relocate to the 77 acre property; 3. THAT the prapanent be required to either remove or relocate the existing billboard sign an the 7 acre property.

On February 27`", 2007 we forwarded to your attention a letter requesting your Ball Diamond Reservations for the 2007 season. We did not get a reply. On April 18`", 2007 we forwarded to your attention a letter as well as a copy of the permit # 1828. We asked, at that time, that you "read the permit over before signing and return one copy of each with the completed Team Member Listing and your post dated cheques". We received no indication that you required any changes to the booking. On August 23`d, 2007 we forwarded to your attention a letter indicating that we had not received any payment for the 2007 season. Subsequent to this letter an a-mail was sent to me indicating that we should be speaking to Ms. Joan Shakell, Vasey Minor Balt Treasurer regarding payment. On October 23'd, 2007 we forwarded a letter to Ms. Joan Shakell requesting payment. Ms. Shakell telephoned to inform us that we should be contacting you. It is unfortunate that you did not deem it necessary to inform us at any time during the 2007 baseball season of changes to your bookings or cancellations which are handled in accordance to the fee by-law and cancellation policy both passed by Council. At this point, we cannot verify your claims and, therefore, cannot reduce the permit. We can accept your $75.00 reduction for field stripe, however, we require a copy of the receipt. We wish to acknowledge the effort you and your volunteers put into Vasey Minor Ball and the valuable service provided to the community, but regret to inform you that in accordance with Township Policy an outstanding balance of $777.02 ($943.52 permit 1828 - $166.50 payment received) remains and is due immediately to avoid accrual of interest charges. We have enclosed a GranUSubsidy form that can be filled out and submitted to Council requesting to waive fees associated with permit #1828. We ask that if the grant request is going to be submitted that it be returned to my attention by January 16`" to coincide with year end.
