Conservation Authorities (CAs) are watershed -based resource management agencies, established under the Conservation Authorities Act, whose mandate includes a variety of responsibilities and functions in the land use planning and development review process. NVCA was established in 1960.

The primary focus of this program is to proactively, protect the environment and protect people and property from natural hazards, including flooding and erosion, based on sound science and technical expertise. The Planning Services program has three major components: • Strategic Planning (Watershed /Subwatershed plans and policy /guideline development). • Plan Input and Review (Planning, Environmental Assessment and Niagara Escarpment Acts etc.). • Conservation Authority Regulations and Permitting (CA Act).

These delegated responsibilities require CAs to review and provide comments on policy documents (Official Plans and comprehensive zoning by -laws) and applications submitted pursuant to the Planning Act as part of the Provincial One - Window Plan Review Service. The Provincial Policy Statement (PPS) provides policy direction on matters of provincial interest related to land use planning and development. The document sets the policy foundation for regulating development and use of land. The Provincial Policy Statement aims to provide for appropriate development while protecting resources of provincial interest, public health and safety, and the quality of the natural environment. Natural hazards include: a. hazardous lands adjacent to the shorelines of the Great Lakes - St. Lawrence River System and large inland lakes which are impacted by flooding hazards, erosion hazards and /ordynamic beach hazards; b. hazardous lands adjacent to river, stream and small inland lake systems which are impacted by flooding hazards and /or erosion hazards; and c. hazardous sites. NATURAL HERITAGE: Planning Services' programs play a significant role in helping to ensure the long -term health and sustainability of the watershed; forests, streams and rivers, wetlands and other significant natural features. The planning program plays a key role in implementing the NVCA's environmental protection and restoration vision, this includes working collaboratively with Municipalities, developers, and landowners to meet or work toward the following NVCA targets: • 100% healthy streams, 100% groundwater aquifers protected. • at least 30% forest cover, at least 75% of stream side with healthy buffers. • 0 lives lost and minimal property damage due to flooding and erosion. • no unauthorized development, in hazard areas or in environmentally significant lands protected by the Provincial, Municipal or NVCA Policies or other relevant legislation. • a minimum of 10% wetland cover. • 12 % of the land base should have protection through public agency mandate. IMPLEMENTATION: The NVCA utilizes a combination of technical science based advise and regulatory mandate, to help guide municipalities, landowners and watershed residents to meet mutually beneficial environmental objectives. The NVCA typically reviews 1000 plus planning applications including May 2009 Page 2 of 3 Page 6 of 49 Agenda Item # 4a) - 9:00 a.m. Chris Hibberd, Director of Planning, Nottawasaga ... ,�pSAGq oti act FQ��TION ASS NVCA PLANNING SERVICES PROGRAM — 2009 issuance of approximately 350 permits per year. We strive to ensure timely review of applications and are committed to working closely with Municipal partners, the Province and landowners. The NVCA implements its regulatory and plan review agency mandate through the strategic guidance provided by the Watershed Plan, Business Plan, and Planning and Regulation Guidelines, as approved by its 26 Board Members and 18 Municipalities. USER FEE CONCEPT: NVCA's Board of Directors has adopted the NVCA Policy to Charge Planning and Development Related Fees. This Policy has been prepared in conformity with the Conservation Authorities Act and the Policies and Procedures for the Charging of Conservation Authority Fees, established by the Ministry of Natural Resources. This Policy is based on the user -pay principle. The fees and revenues generated through this Policy are designed to recover the costs associated with administering and delivering the services on a program basis. PARTNERSHIPS: The NVCA has an agreement with the County of Simcoe to provide technical support on natural heritage planning issues as well as those relating to natural hazards. The NVCA has streamlining agreements with the majority of member municipalities regarding applications for consent and minor variance applications. The NVCA has an agreement (level 2) with the Department of Fisheries and Oceans to prevent harmful alteration, disruption or destruction of Fish Habitat under the Federal Fisheries Act.

Box 100 REUCIVE Oro, ON LOL 2X0 7MAY 5 Zoos Att n: Doug Irwin, Clerk ONTE Re: Committee of Adjustment Site Visits SHIP Dear Mayor and Members of Council: The Committee of Adjustment appreciates the opportunity to meet with Council on June 3, 2009 to present a concern of the members regarding remuneration and mileage for the Site Visits performed by the Committee. In the fall of 2008, the Committee of Adjustment was advised by Ms. Andria Leigh that the Committee would no longer attend Site Visits as a group for future applications. The Committee understood the reason for this decision and was accepting of the change. The Committee was also advised at this time that Site Visits could still be performed by the Committee members on an individual basis using personal transportation but there would no longer be mileage paid or reimbursement for the time. Staff has been taking pictures of the various locations for our review and for the most part these pictures have been good but it certainly is not conducive to having an overall sense of the subject property and the proposal before the Committee. As the Committee feels strongly that it is important to provide all applicants with the best possible service, we have been continuing to do the Site Visits on our own time and using our own vehicles. As Council is well aware, this is a large municipality and it does take considerable time and a lot of miles are covered each month to view the lands that are identified in the applications. It is the feeling of the Committee that the decision to terminate the compensation for time and mileage is not in keeping with the terms and conditions under which this Committee was appointed by Council. We, the Committee of Adjustment, look to Council to consider this matter and to retroactively reinstate compensation for time and mileage to the Committee for the remainder of the Committee's term. Respectfully submitted, Michelle Lynch Rick Webster Garry Potter Lynda Aiken Bruce Chappell Page 35 of 49 Agenda Item # 4d) - 9:30 a.m. Mac Shiells, on behalf of the Horseshoe Valley Pr Mr Mayor and Councillors We are here representing the Horseshoe Valley Home Owners Association. Our purpose today is to seek your approval to place a 60' x 120 ` concrete pad at the 4th line park suitable for possible future refrigeration and a roof. It may be helpful to review the development of the 4the Line park so far. With over a thousand residents in Horseshoe Valley alone, the Homeowners decided that the time had come to develop a small activity park for the community on land donated for recreational use by the Horseshoe developer. Council approved a jogging trail and the installation of exercise locations along the trail. Accordingly in coordination with Parks & Rec. a jogging trail was installed three years ago. A twelve piece `Green Gym' (an outdoor adult exercise gym) was installed last year. The first of its kind in the Region. The cost of equipment was shared equally between the Township and Horseshoe residents and the site preparation and installation was entirely covered by local volunteers. The township is now using the `Green Gym' to provide Oro - Medonte residents with a `Boot Camp' experience. Our understanding is that an additional Camp had to be added to meet demand. Council also approved a temporary ice surface to be tried out on the car park leading to fitness trail to determine demand. Two years ago a small temporary ice surface was installed by volunteers on the parking lot leading to the jogging trail. It proved Page 36 of 49 Agenda Item # 4d) - 9:30 a.m. Mac Shiells, on behalf of the Horseshoe Valley Pr very popular and so last year with Parks and Rec. approval, at our expense via donations and work in lieu (for which the township gave charitable receipts we put in a water supply line and cleared an area large enough to put in a temporary 120' x 60' ice surface. behind the parking lot and adjacent to the jogging trail. The surface attracted many residents and non - residents alike and was busy much of the Winter. The temporary rink requires a lot of work and many volunteers on a roster system. The biggest jobs for the volunteers are; the initial set up (boards and plastic underlay) the clearing and ice surfacing during the season ( we have about 30 snowfalls per season) which damages the plastic and of course the volunteers re -flood after thaws. A pad will greatly enhance the ease of maintaining the ice and could be used for other activities during non winter months. We would like to place the pad at the back of the existing parking lot, close to where it has been for the last two years and near the water supply line that was installed last winter. The pad would also contain piping that would allow for artificial ice at some future date. There would be minimal expense to the township as in kind work plus funds already raised would cover most of the construction cost. Should we need more then we will continue to fundraise. We want to take advantage of the momentum that has been built up over the last couple of years and show our members that we are progressing with the park's development. We have had a survey done which is currently being incorporated into a site plan by our (volunteer) landscape architect. We anticipate that landscaping will be covered from targeted fund raising.
