Box 100, Oro, Ontario, LOL 2X0 Door Mayor and Members of Council, Re: Proposed Application to Amend the Township By-Laws R1 Minimum Gross Floor Area Provisions. To apply to lands subject to Draft Plan of Subdivision 43T-90082 The developer confirms that no exceptions are required to the zone standards for lot frontage or lot area, for the proposed residential lots. The developer is, however, requesting an amendment to the By-law building standards in the RI zone as it pertains to a minimum gross floor area of a building. The R1 Zone minimum building area requirement is 90 square metres on the first storey, not including a garage. In a historical context this requirement may have been implemented to ensure that a reasonably sized dwelling would be built in Oro-Medonte. Particularly when the majority of housing types being built at the time were one storey and one storey raised bungalows. The developer is requesting that the By-Law Provision in the R1 zone relating to a minimum gross floor area of 90 square metres on the first storey not including garage be amended by deleting the words "on the first storey'. An overview of By-Laws of abutting municipalities Indicates that no reference is made of a "first storey" requirement and that the minimum gross floor area of a building is 65 square metres. The amendment proposed by the developer will allow for a variety of housing that meets current living and design requirements, as Well as market demands. Oro-Medonte's objectives to encourage a variety of housing and gross floor areas will continue to be met. There will be no substantive negative impact on the Township by the removal of the G.F.A on the first storey. Thank you. Tod Chlebowski Page 31 of 162 9a) - 7:00 p.m. Richard DaPra and Galen L...

Page 44 of 162 10a) - Report No. DS 2011 -16, Andria Leigh... .. RE PORT Proud Heritage, Exciting Future Report No. To: Council Prepared By: DS 2011 -016 Andria Leigh, Director of Development Services Meeting Date: Subject: Residential Tree Motion # May 11, 2011 Security —Moon Point Plan of Subdivision Roll #: R.M.S. File #: RECOMMENDATION(S): Requires Action XX For Information Only 11 It is recommended: 1. THAT Report No. DS 2011 -016 be received and adopted; 2. THAT Council establishes the required residential tree security amount to be established at $ 5000.00 on a per lot basis to be released upon issuance of Final Lot Grading and Final Occupancy when in compliance with the Site Plan Agreement. BACKGROUND /ANALYSIS: The Township's Official Plan contains policies which encourage the preservation of the Township's natural heritage features including woodlands. On this basis, in the most recent residential developments the Township has been requiring Tree Preservation Plans to be prepared and appropriate securities to be held by the municipality to ensure only the identified building envelopes are subject to tree removal. To date, these policies have applied through various subdivision and site plan agreements in the following areas: Sugarbush — Indian Park Association lots, Horseshoe — Highland Drive, Horseshoe - Obradovich (4 line), CRA Developments- Springhome Road and Moon Point subdivision. The wording typically contained in the subdivision /site plan agreement states " Preservation of existing vegetation outside building envelope /driveway access — The applicant for the building permit, shall deposit with the Township at a rate applicable at the time of the issuance of Building Permits, securities to ensure the preservation of existing vegetation outside the building envelope, driveway location, as shown on Drawing (title and date) prepared by (consultant/company name). The security deposit will be returned upon issuance of final occupancy and certified by the Township that existing vegetation outside the building envelope and driveway access has been preserved in compliance with the agreement." DEVELOPMENT SERVICES Meeting Date May 11, 2011 Report No. DS 2011 -016 Page 1 of 3 Page 45 of 162 10a) - Report No. DS 2011 -16, Andria Leigh... In reviewing the various subdivision /site plan agreements where tree preservation has been a requirement the security amounts posted with the Township have not been consistent. The original subdivision approved in 2002 (Horseshoe - Highland Drive) required securities in the amount of $ 15,000 per lot being developed. This security amount has also been carried forward into the first Site Plan Agreement for Lot 3 in the Moon Point Subdivision. The lots however located in Sugarbush and Springhome had lesser security amounts submitted. Through discussions with Council, a request was received to consider alternate security amounts for all future developments that would be a reduction from the current $ 15,000 requirement, which is the purpose of this report to Council. In reviewing the Subdivision Agreements, there is an additional clause which states: "The Developer must preserve all healthy trees within the limits of the subdivision, where possible. If, in the opinion of the Township Engineer, indiscriminate removal of trees takes place within the limits of the Plan of Subdivision, including road allowances, parkland and individual lots, the Township shall have the option of having a Stop Work Order on construction of the services and /or building on a particular lot where the removal is taking place. Work will not be allowed to proceed until the Township is satisfied that the practice will not continue and the Developer /Builder agrees to carry out remedial work requested by the Township." This provision ensures that should the building/ applicant remove trees not in compliance with the associated site plan agreement they will be required to rectify the situation prior to final occupancy consideration and prior to the release of any securities. The intent of the tree security was to ensure that sufficient monies were deposited with the Municipality to ensure the preservation of existing trees outside the driveway and building envelope locations identified on their site plans. The subdivision agreement required that these securities were not be returned until the final occupancy was achieved and certified by the Township that the existing trees outside the building envelope and driveway location have been preserved. On the basis of the above, it is recommended to Council that securities be established for all future Tree Preservation Agreements at $ 5000.00 per lot for residential lots. Should an applicant wish to have Council consider an alternate amount of security, they would be required to have a qualified landscape arborist provide an estimate of the cost for replacement of the trees within the site. Commercial and Industrial site plans continue to be the subject of the provision for detailed landscape estimates and are not subject to the same $ 5000.00 tree security provisions.

The Bookworms Book Club, led by Michelle Sinclair and Lynn Lockhart, met in March and 13 members participated in a discussion of "If Morning Ever Comes" by Anne Tyler. The group was happy to welcome a new member. The Talking Books Book Group met this month with low attendance but had an interesting discussion. Active solicitation of new members is ongoing. Twelve people were provided with library materials in our Community Outreach program. Materials were also delivered to Victoria House and Birchmere Retirement Residence. Nancy Archer and I met to discuss our procedure of lending library materials through interlibrary loan. We decided that any materials which have been acquired in the last six months will not be lent to other libraries. Susan Dance created a "Biography" collection for us in the Circulation module so eventually all titles which are in this section will be indicated as such in the online catalogue. This will ensure easier access to this collection for our patrons.

Page 80 of 162 12d) - Minutes of Orillia Public Library rn REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR OF TECHNICAL SERVICES MARCH 2011 Circulation Borrowing stayed strong in March, with a total of 22,059 items checked out or renewed a 4 % increase over 2010. Reserves on materials are up substantially as well, probably because the new library system makes the process much easier, especially from home. Library visits seems to have settled around the 13,500- per- month level, about 410 per day. Joyce Dempsey was away for a large part of the month on vacation, giving the staff a chance to fend for themselves, which they did very well. Technical Processing In March we released a Request For Proposal (RFP) for a RFID -base collection management system. Library RFID systems use passive, low- powered radio technology to read identifying data tags attached to library materials. Each RFID tag is programmed with information about the item it is attached to, e.g. author, title, ISBN. Libraries place these tags in library materials (books, DVDs, CDs, etc.). The tags are used to check materials out and in, and are also a component in the library's security system. Benefits of RFID This technology improves the speed and accuracy of most circulation and shelving functions, while protecting the library collection. By automating a number of time consuming operations, RFID will free staff to be redeployed to provide customer services in other areas of the library. RFID has also been shown to reduce repetitive motion injuries. RFID will replace the magnetic -based Tattle -tape system the library presently uses. The library's equipment is 14 years old and should be replaced. We are experimenting with TP statistics and reporting, in light of the capabilities of the Library. Solution system, and do not have statistics yet for March. Submitted by David Rowe Page 81 of 162 12d) - Minutes of Orillia Public Library rn REPORT OF THE CEO March 2011 Submitted by Suzanne Campbell GOAL # 4 The Library will advocate for increased public awareness of the value and range of library services. A steering committee, made up of Board members Gay Guthrie and Joanna Rolland, staff members Suzanne Campbell and Jayne Turvey, and consultant Lee Pigeau was established. The steering committee worked on editing the Case for Support developed by the Goldie Company. A list of potential co- chairs and campaign volunteers was also developed. The next step will be choosing co- chairs and a volunteer committee. GOAL # 7 The Library will attract, develop and maintain a trained and educated workforce and leadership that reflect our values and ethics. • staff meeting was held on March 24'. • Joint Health and Safety Committee meeting was held on March 23 • safety inspection was conducted by Health and Safety Committee members Jai Khemraj and Jennifer Murrant. A few problems were noted but were easily fixed. GOAL # 1 The Library will increase its size to meet the standards for the population served. A meeting with the landscape architects and the engineers examining the Opera House for structural problems took place on March 9 th , in attendance were Lori Koughan, Craig Metcalf, Krista Story, Bruce Duncan (pm only), Werner Sommer, two engineers examining the Opera House, Mayor Orsi, representatives from Aquacon, Councillor Kehoe, and Suzanne Campbell and Brian Jewitt. The morning meeting was devoted to the engineers report on their findings to date on the structural assessment of the Opera House. The need for work and the degree of work to be conducted was discussed. The impact of the landscaping work on the Opera House was also discussed and it was determined that the work on the library would have little impact but the Opera House would continue to be monitored for vibrations. If vibrations become a problem then Aquacon will adapt the method used in completing the work. The afternoon of March 9 was devoted to a presentation from the landscape architect. The design was presented and a discussion occurred concerning responsibility for snow removal, especially on days the library is not open. Preliminary designs of the area look great, including sculptural lighting reflecting the market theme.

This is why the McGuinty government is investing $2.85 million in one -time funding to strengthen Ontario's public library system. Our government recognizes the challenges that public libraries face with increasing demand for services and meeting the needs of diverse communities, businesses and entrepreneurs among others with limited funding resources. The McGuinty government recognizes the immeasurable impact that public libraries have on making our communities socially and economically stronger. We value the great work that you do — as important partners in promoting literacy and life -long learning and creating an environment where Ontarians feel welcome and connected. In recognition of your important contributions, the province is providing $1.9 million to public libraries in support of your efforts to build collections and programs that strengthen community services. This investment is a step forward in addressing the needs of public libraries. I have asked the Southern Ontario Library Service, in collaboration with Ontario Library Service — North, to administer the funding to public libraries on our behalf. Agency staff will be in contact with you shortly to deliver the funding. In addition, we are investing a combined $950,000 in the Southern Ontario Library Service and Ontario Library Service — North. This funding will help our agencies to maintain the delivery of important services, including Inter - Library Loan, on which you rely. On behalf of the Ministry of Tourism and Culture, I look forward to continue working with you to address your future needs. Ontario is proud to support public libraries in providing equitable access to information and delivering innovative programs that are strengthening Ontario's economic prosperity. Yours truly, Michael Chan Minister c: Ms. Laurey Gillies, CEO, Southern Ontario Library Service Ms. Leanne Clendening, CEO, Ontario Library Service — North Mr. Steven Davidson, Deputy Minister (A) Page 86 of 162 12e) - Minutes of Nottawasaga Valley Conse...

RECENED APR 2 6 2011 JeH ANNUAL ________TRJE VEN MUSCULAR DYSTROPHY COMMUNITY CHARITY GOLF TOURNAMENT y` lop July 16,2010 Oro Medonte Township Attn. Town Counsel Box 100 Oro Ontario LOL 2X0 Dear Counsel Members, 18/04/11 As Chair person for the Annual Trehaven Muscular Dystrophy Community Charity Golf Tournament I am respectfully requesting that the permit fee for the 30'x 70' push pole tent be wavered. This event in its twentieth year is again being hosted at the Trehaven Golf & Country Club. The Tournament is operated by a volunteer board with all proceeds being directed to the Muscular Dystrophy Association for research and community charities for families with children with disabilities in this geographical area. Each year this event hosts over a hundred fifty participants from around the province including many fire- fighters. It is the committee's goal each year to make this a fully donated event so that all the proceeds will be directed to intended organizations. The Trehaven Golf Course each year has closed its doors to the general public and donates the full use of the golf course to our venture. Community businesses in Orillia, Oro- Medonte and Barrie overwhelming support the tournament through the donation of prizes and sponsorships contributing to the success of this event. Over the past nineteen years the Annual Trehaven Muscular Dystrophy Community Charity Golf Tournament has raised $385,000.00. The tent which has been partially sponsored by the Oro District Lions is a 30'x 70' push pole tent and will be erected by Barrie Tent & Awning. It is the Committees hope that this Counsel will again consider our request and waver the cost for the permit. I look forward to your response.

I am surprised that written notice of the Township's intentions was not provided to the landowners prior to making the decision to pave the road. It is considerably more difficult to make views known after the fact. I have copied my concerns below for your reference: ➢ The road is under - populated with only 3 full -time residents on the road (Lumree, Jenkins, and Campbell) ➢ The road is a dead -end and is already a route for curious or lost drivers. These drivers tend to travel at speeds far in excess of that which the conditions and nature of the road dictate. There is a steep bank at the dead end and more than one car that has been travelling at a high speed has gone off the road at this point. In the last month, a car hit the stone markers at the entrance to the house at the dead end - this would not be possible if one was driving responsibly. As the road is a dead end, I fear that paving this section will likely increase the already high speed these drivers, and make it a convenient location for racing, skateboarding or other undesirable and unsafe activities. I doubt that the speed on this section of the road or careless driving will ever be radar enforced or policed. ➢ The road has several low spots that consistently overflow in thaws and heavy rain. Paving the road will allow less run -off and could create potentially hazardous conditions. I wonder if the paving plans include improving the drainage and the installation of new culverts? Please contact me by telephone 416- 485 -3188 or email b.c.stewart @sympatico.ca if you need further information. Would you also kindly let-me know Council's final decision? Yours truly, Barbara Stewart Page 107 of 162 13b) - Correspondence dated April 15, 2011 o t� April 2011 0 The undersigned residents are not in favour of Line 7 North Oro Medonte north of County Road 19 being paved.

( this is not a valid reason) -the people supporting this decision feel that the township has already addressed the need for the road improvements based on professional opinions from staff, engineers, and service workers. We feel the over all improvements would benefit the community and the residents that use the road everyday, that are not cottagers or weekenders. -the fulltime resident that is not supporting the improvements rents farm land from the opposition, and we feel his reason may not be valid. The township owns the road and its allowance and we feel they should be making the decision based on the common sense approach. They should make there decision based on the best way they think it would benefit the community. Page 110 of 162 13c) - Correspondence dated May 5, 2011 fr From: Robb Meier Sent: Thursday, May 05, 2011 10:03 AM To: Binns, Shawn Subject: Re: Barrie Cycling Club -Youth Road Race Proposal Hey Shawn, The Barrie Cycling Club is looking forward to hosting an event in Oro - Medonte on Saturday May 21, 2011. We have already ensured that the Township of Oro - Medonte is listed on our Insurance Policy for the race. Our event is a 2 part race for children who are between the ages of 10 -16 at the end of the year. The first portion, kicking off at 9:30am will consist of a Time Trial of varying lengths. The second part, set to begin around 11:30am consists of a road race, again of varying lengths depending on the child's age. The course which we have chosen is as follows: For the Time Trial portion, for all but the eldest age category, riders will begin on the 1st of Oro, heading south from Old Barrie Rd. They will perform a marshalled turn at varying points along the 1st line, with the furthest turn being made at the intersection of the 1st line and 20/21 sideroad. They will finish at the top of the last climb before Old Barrie Rd. The oldest age category will ride 1 lap of the full road race course, which is as follows: Riders will begin on the 1st line, heading north towards Old Barrie Rd. From there they will turn right and continue along Old Barrie road to the 2nd line, where they will turn right. The riders will carry along to the 20/21 sideroad where they will again turn right. They will continue along to the 1st line, turn right again, and finish on a climb before reaching Old Barrie Road. The road race portion which will begin around 11:30am will use the same course as the final group of Time Trial riders. The race lengths vary from 1 lap, to 6 laps for the oldest group. We have already contacted the local detachment of the OPP and will have at least 1 officer and car on scene. Depending on pre- registration numbers, we will include a second officer in our plan. We also have a commitment from the St. John's Ambulance brigade that they will be on site to offer emergency medial assistance. Additionally we have several volunteers who have current first aid training who will be placed at strategic points around the course with radio communication in case of incident. We would like to request a partial road closure for the road race portion of the event. This would entail closing the inside lane on each of the 1st line, Old Barrie Rd, the 2nd line & the 20/21 sideroad to all cars for the duration of the race. (--11:30am- 12:45pm)This will result in an a detour for drivers of about 4.5km depending on direction of travel. We have at least 2 volunteers for each corner on the race course, as well as several for the start finish area to help ensure everyone's safety but this kind of road closure would really be ideal. We have arranged parking for race participants at W.R. Best Elementary School on Old Barrie Rd. We will be asking spectators to park on the 1st line, north of Old Barrie Rd if this is agreeable. We are also hand delivering a message to all residents along the route. Letting them know of the event and potential traffic inconveniences. We will also be requesting that residents do their best to keep family pets tied up and off the race course for additional safety. We have arranged with a third party vendor to provide food and drinks on site. They will be situated at W.R. Best as well. We are just waiting on final clearance from the Health Department on this. Additionally the community group Safe Kids Canada will be on site handing out literature and offering helmet fittings and an 'egg drop' simulation. This is our second race aimed at youth of these ages, with no incidents last year. We've also hosted many other races in Oro - Medonte without incident. I hope that we can work together on this event to make it safe, fun, and memorable. We hope to host it for the next several years. If there is any other information you require, please do not hesitate to email me back, or you may reach me via telephone. cheers, robb Page 111 of 162 13d) - Correspondence dated April 25, 2011...
