File #: RECOMMENDATION(S): Requires Action For Information Only It is recommended that: 1. THAT Report No. CAO 2012 -02 be received and adopted; 2. THAT staff be authorized to proceed with the release of the Township Facebook Page for Events and Attractions; 3. AND THAT staff report back before 2nd quarter 2013 with a status update. BACKGROUND: Facebook was founded in 2004 and has grown to have over 845 million active users all over the world. People use Facebook to stay connected with family and friends, to discover what's going on around them, and to share and express what matters to them. Facebook recently enhanced the profile format to include Timeline; Timeline is a new format that sorts all activity chronologically, from most recent status update to the beginning. Timeline is an opportunity to promote the Township and tell users what's going on in and around our Township. By adding events to our Timeline, it can turn the Township Facebook Page into an attractive and interesting way to share information about what's going on in our Township with residents, visitors, business and stakeholders. Facebook allows for various updates, including but not limited to: 1. Information about our Township - post information about events and attractions to notify users and build awareness to attract tourists and visitors; 2. Links to website — notify and advertise events and attraction while redirecting users to our website; 3. Customer Service — an opportunity to enhance customer service by addressing matters that may be identified.

The Township's Strategic Plan 2011 -2014 has identified a number of strategies related to enhancing external communications. In an effort to achieve these strategies, the Township has successfully utilized several communication channels to enhance external communications. The use of a Township Facebook Page to promote events and attractions is an option to supplement the various communication outlets, while offering increased opportunities to reach the specific audiences that use online social media tools while reaching as many residents and stakeholders as possible. ANALYSIS: Research has been completed by staff through a number of consultations with various municipalities across Canada currently using social media tools. Although many were in the initial stages of using social media, the feedback based on their experiences with Facebook have been very positive with respect to its effectiveness and the ease of being able to communicate relevant information. Corporate Communications will monitor the success of the Corporate Facebook Page by assessing the number of "likes" and comments generated by monitoring the momentum effect of people telling others resulting in new fans. The Benefits of Facebook': inReleases news faster than most traditional communications source; Enhances communication and customer service efforts by targeting a specific audience that traditional communications methods are not necessarily reaching; Fast and free way to communicate with those who have selected the Township as a source of information they value. Facebook Demographics (2012)2: Studies show that the majority of Facebook users are in the age group of 18 -34 and more than 66% of adults are connected to one or more social media platforms. People 45 and older make up 46% of Facebook users. Women use social media more than men and more women are on Facebook and Twitter; about 57% of Facebook and 59% of Twitter users are women. About 200 million Facebook users check their accounts from their mobile devices every day. 1 Based on consultations with SC Communications Working Group, Municipal Communications Conference Delegates 2 Social Media Today & Social Demographics: Who's Using Today's Biggest Networks I www.socialmq4iqto .cam; www.mashable.com CAO's Office I Corporate Communications June 13, 2012 Report No. CAO 2012 -02 Page 2 of 5 Page 36 of 96 10c) - Report No. CA02012 -02, Samah Othman, Corporate Commun... Township of Oro - Medonte Demographics (2006)3: Census Canada reports indicate that 16.4% of the Township's population is in the 20 -34 age group, while 20.8% of the Township's population is in the 35 -49 age group. Therefore, the two (2) most popular age groups represent almost 38% of the Township's overall population. Municipalities /Stakeholders with Facebook Pages: Users can create profiles with photos, lists of interests, contact information, and other relevant information. Users can communicate with other users through private or public messages and a chat feature. They can also create and join interest groups and "like pages" some of which are maintained by organizations as a means of advertising. "Like" refers to the number of users that are connected to a Facebook page - essentially, they are our subscribers. Users can control who sees other information they have shared, as well as who can find them in searches, through their privacy settings.

The information posted on Facebook will be determined in the same manner that traditional methods of communications are chosen for based on size, objectives and target audiences of the message. The primary focus will be on advertising and promoting Corporate and community events, including recreational programs and announcements.

Di Pinto from Grounded Coffee. She came to thank the Board for their support and involvement in the first Books2Eat event, held at the Library on Sunday, April 1". She told the Board that there has been lots of positive spin offs for the local businesses that were involved.

Business arising from the minutes - continued had previously experienced very little traffic, are now receiving all kinds of positive posts. She went on to say that parents of the PSS High School students that were involved have called her to say what a positive experience it was for their kids. Katimavik was a huge help, doing most of the "heavy lifting" for the event. She asked the Board to write letters in support of the continuance of Katimavik. Letters should go to the Federal Minister of Heritage or the Minister of Finance. The BIA has indicated an interest in helping to fund the event next year. The Board was asked for feedback. The response was enthusiastic and all agreed to the event being held next year. V. Nihill commented that the media didn't cover the event, on the day, very well. N. Di Pinto agreed and said next year we will do a better job of that. There was good coverage before. Andrew Elsdon, a photographer that N. Di Pinto met at her shop a week before the event, came and took around 700 pictures. G. Canning asked if there was any way the event could be moved away from the Easter period. It was determined that Easter in 2013 falls on March 31St so maybe the event could be held on the following Sunday, April 7 th N. Di Pinto suggested that closer to Christmas another event be held with a gingerbread house competition. The focus would be more children centered. B. Molesworth and the Board thanked N. Di Pinto for bringing the idea of the Books 2 Eat event to us and all her work on behalf of the Library. B. Molesworth and S. Cooper will meet with her later in the summer or early fall to plan a Christmas event. 4.1(b) Carpet/Window Cleaning B. Molesworth has contacted window and carpet cleaners to obtain quotes. He has received 3 quotes for carpet cleaning, so far, but is still waiting for a window cleaning quote. The carpet cleaning quotes are all in excess of $2,000.00. These expenditures will make quite a hole in the Building Maintenance budget line but he feels they are necessary expenditures.

Business arising from the minutes - continued 4.2 Deputation to Council — June? B. Molesworth has spoken with Deputy Clerk, K. Desroches, about available time slots for a Library Board deputation to Council. There are a couple of possible times in June. The deputation is meant to raise awareness about our place and value in the community. G. Canning stated that the 2013 budget process will be brutal and that the Library needs to be heard in order to not be "run over" by larger departments of the Town. B. Molesworth asked the Board to send him any suggestions they might have that should go into a presentation. Library Board Chairman, J. Swick, previously agreed to deliver the deputation, if he is available. 4.3 Donation of Painting Board member, L. Campbell, unveiled the painting that the family of Rolf Staude is donating in his memory. The painting is by Mr. Staude and depicts the Canadian Coast Guard ship coming into Midland Harbour. A thank you note will be sent to the family. 4.4 Municipal Cultural Planning B. Molesworth reported that two Board members and three Staff attended a workshop at the NSSRC. He went on to say that the morning speakers were rather repetitive so it was a bit disappointing. U Schmid, who stayed for the afternoon session, said that they covered something called "cultural mapping ". The suggestion was that you borrow the template from what other communities have done. G. Canning reported that a presentation was made to Council by B. Peter, Director of Parks and Recreation, asking for a budget to move forward with this initiative. Council sees it falling under their Economic Development Plan. U. Schmid went on to explain that the main idea is to acknowledge that we are moving away from a manufacturing base to a knowledge based society.

Approval of the accounts 6. 7 The Board was asked to review the Cheque Distribution Reports for February and March 2012. B. Desroches asked what the expenditure for Agent Verso was. B. Molesworth explained that Agent Verso is our integrated library software, which handles all our Library operations. It is an annual expenditure for maintenance. Moved by: B. Gorski Seconded by: G. Canning That the accounts for the months of February and March 2012 totalling $22.068.34 and $19, 807.76, respectively, be approved Reports of Board Committees 6.1 Finance Committee B. Gorski distributed copies of the Library Financial Statement as at March 31, 2012. B. Molesworth explained annual payments. A question was raised about the Natural Gas budget line being at 42.80% spent. B. Molesworth explained that we only use natural gas in the winter months so there shouldn't be much more spent until November_ Hydro will go up accordingly as we move into air conditioning season. 6.2 Report from the Friends of the Midland Public Library B. Molesworth reported that the Book Store is still doing well and the Friends are contributing to our Collections budget. Lots of donated books are coming in, so all is going well. New business 7.1 Budget 2013 — 3 Scenarios — Time Lines? Council has passed a motion asking Department Heads to present three different budget scenarios, one at +2 %, one at 0% and one at -2 %. The Town Treasurer is currently working on the 2013 payroll costs. Once we have these numbers, we can move forward. G. Canning said that he had met with CAO, T. Walker and Mayor McKay, about this budget process. Concillors are continually being asked why they aren't making cuts, so the idea of the three CARRIED Page 58 of 96 12e) - Minutes of Midland Public Library Board meeting held MIDLAND PUBLIC LIBRARY BOARD MEETING Page 5 of 6 DATE: April 12, 2012 LOCATION: Midland Public Library Boardroom ITEM ISSUE ACTION 7. New business - continued E3 budget pictures is to show the community what each scenario will look like and what the impact will be. He went on to say that Town Staff have asked that budget meetings start early. This process is not meant to be an onerous task. Council is looking for real numbers that are defensible. B. Molesworth assured the Board that all three scenarios will be brought to them first before they go to Council. J. Pack asked if there had been anymore talk about the Library Staff unionizing. B. Molesworth said he hadn't heard anything more. 7.2 Board Meeting Requirements B. Molesworth asked if the majority of Board members would be able to attend a Board /Staff meeting on Friday, June 15th. The regular Board meeting, that would have been held on Thursday, June 14th, will be moved to the next day. The meeting for the Board would start at 5:00 p.m. with Staff joining in at 6:00 p.m., after the Library closes. Those present seemed to think they could attend so B. Molesworth will bring the meeting date forward to the Staff Meeting next Tuesday morning. Given the budget process this year we may have to have a meeting in July. Information 8.1 Chief Librarian's Report There was more discussion about the Books2Eat event. We sold approximately $3,000.00 in tickets and had about $1,000.00 in expenses. All the proceeds will go into Collections. If we have sponsorships for next year's event that would be great. B. Gorski has some information that he will give to B. Molesworth about possible savings. There was a crush initially at the wine counter but next year, if we use two floors, there will likely be two places to obtain a glass of wine. V. Nihill asked if the Library had any issues about how it ran and clean up. B. Molesworth said there was nothing of any consequence other than a bit of icing on the carpet but we'll be getting them cleaned soon anyway.

Information - continued 9. It was suggested that we should put some pictures on the website. There are some on our Facebook page but B. Molesworth will ask N. Di Pinto for some more. 8.2 Correspondence — YMCA — School -Age Programme A very large, hand -made thank you card, from the YMCA School -Age and Holiday Camp children that was given to B.

Bill 149 included changes to the Planning Act which would require municipalities to update their Official Plans and zoning by -laws to permit secondary suites; both in -law suites and separate carriage houses. As all municipalities will have to address this anyway, there is no need for further investigation by the committee and it the minutes of May 16th will be updated to reflect this. Moved by Ray Millar and seconded by Mara Burton. THAT the minutes from the meeting of February 3rd, 2012 be approved as amended. Carried. Sustainable Severn Sound —June 1st, 2012 Page 61 of 96 12f) - Minutes of Sustainability Plan Steering Committee (SP... 3.0 WORK PLAN 3.1 Terms of reference document A number of small changes were discussed to the document. It will be updated and circulated to the committee. Moved by Ray Millar and seconded by Mara Burton. THAT the minutes from the meeting of February 3rd, 2012 be approved as amended. Carried. 3.2 Summer meeting schedule adjustment It was determined that there will be no August meeting due to a series of vacation and short- staffed departments. The next meeting will continue as scheduled. 3.3 Sustainability Summit planning The hold- the -date flyer for the Sustainability Summit (October 18th, 2012), will be sent to all of the municipal clerks to ensure all councilors have received it. Details of the summit were discussed. The breakout groups will be presented with a few options of potential by -laws for discussion, in addition to short presentations regarding Sustainable Severn Sound in general, and the context for tree by -laws. We could also solicit input on the website. Passive displays could also be used in the atrium. A rough timeline will also be circulated, and invitations will be sent to the Sustainability Advisory Team 3.4 Sustainability Planning with municipal departments Luke Raftis prepared a workshop for the heads of the Planning & Development, Parks & Recreation, and Public Works departments at the Town of Midland recently. The intention is to begin a more strategic integration of the Sustainability Plan into the day -to -day activities of the municipality. There are already several interesting and innovative initiatives that the town has undertaken, but they are not in the context of the plan, and are not well- communicated. For example, the town recently received approval from the MOE to use treated wastewater for other uses such as irrigation and street cleaning; perhaps one of the first municipalities to receive such an approval. Moving forward, Luke will be attending the Technical Review Committee meetings, and meeting with various managers to get a better sense of what initiatives are currently underway, and to begin to identify opportunities for further integration of actions from the Sustainability Plan. The town will also start releasing a newsletter highlighting their sustainability efforts in order to promote better information sharing Sustainable Severn Sound —June 1 st, 2012 Page 62 of 96 12f) - Minutes of Sustainability Plan Steering Committee (SP... within and between municipalities. Furthermore, Luke is also working with the town to create abridged versions of the Plan, tailored specifically to each department for easier reference. Developing a municipal energy plan was another issue in which Sustainable Severn Sound could also become involved, as it could be a strain on resources in smaller municipalities. If and when other municipalities are ready to undertake a similar initiative with their Planning, Parks & Recreation and Public Works departments, please contact Luke Raftis to arrange the session(s). Since the majority of activities in the Sustainability Plan relate to municipalities, getting started on this front seems like a very important step. 3.5 Update on '10 Priorities' action lists The 'Environmental Pillar' priority actions will be discussed during the next meeting. There was some discussion of adapting the SSEA's Sustainability Awards to be handed out by Sustainable Severn Sound in the future. Keith Sherman will discuss details with Luke Raftis and Debra Muenz 3.6 Financial Report The financial report will be sent around shortly. The NSCFDC is in the middle of its annual audit. 4.0 OTHER BUSINESS The SSEA Open House will be Thursday, June 14th at the Midland Library. Bob Bowles will be making a presentation both in the afternoon and the early evening.. The City of Orillia has hired Roman Martiuk as the new CAO. Their Fluoride issue is ongoing, with the second public forum coming soon. The final report to committee in July and the issue will be decided in August. The celebration for the return of the Keewatin to Port McNichol will take place June 23. Severn Township just held a grand opening for their new library Midland Cultural Centre's grand- opening is June 9th: 16 000 sq ft community space.
