Reply email with original email below:
Hi Cathy,
I have no issue with you my email being read to council. I would just add that I certainly
understand that is important that residents follow appropriate safety guidelines when having a
back yard recreational fire. I think simple communication from the township with proper
clearances and set backs from other combustibles (ie. deck, fence, trees, mulch), times of day to
burn and that only clean paper and wood products be used as fuels would be appropriate and
serve the purpose of what is likely trying to be achieved.
Thanks for getting back to me and have a great day!
Bob Drury
Hi Cathy,
We met while you were campaigning last fall. I have a couple of concerns I would like to discuss
at some point.
I was wondering if you happen to know if there are any plans for work to be done on Ski Trails
Rd. I know the roads guys come by and put cold patch in the pot holes which lasts until it rains
but I am hoping the section between Penetanguishene Rd and the first is soon up for some real
maintenance as it has been bad now for many years.
The other issue is the proposed fire permit. I have another commitment the night is to be
discussed. I am a Firefighter in Barrie. As someone who deals with the by-law in place in Barrie,
a similar one in our township is in my opinion not advisable. From my experience it, we deal
with 95% neighbour disputes where the fire is an opportunity to take a shot at your neighbour. I
looks at permits it should really only be in high occupancy neighbourhoods. Even then I would
predict the by-law would cost the township more to enforce and in court costs than it would
bring in from revenue. On a personal level I feel it would be unpopular and ill advised in a
mainly rural setting like our township.
If you wish to discuss any of this feel free to be in touch.
Thanks,
Bob Drury

Subject: Open Air Burning - by-law and permit decision for May 22, 2019
Good morning,
I was notified of tomorrow's discussion regarding Open Air Burning permits, via the
Township's Facebook page.
As a resident of Oro-Medonte, I understand and support the need for safety when it
comes to fire and our beautiful landscape. The notice/ proposal states, "The purpose of
the Open Air Burning Permit is to mitigate the potential for out of control fires or damage to
people and property, as well as to mitigate the effects of nuisance smoke. Additionally, the
permit will provide an opportunity for Oro-Medonte Fire and Emergency Services staff to
educate and regulate the public on safe burning methods."
As has been proven, time and again, with safety and environmentally related matters...a taxation
of the activity (whether it's called a tax or a permit fee) does not initiate the change you are
looking for. I submit that education, and community connections/communication, on these
matters are far more effective in keeping people and property safe.
A fire that has a permit but is tended by someone who is ignorant to the risk, is more likely to
destroy things than a fire that has no permit and is run at the hand of an educated and cautious
person. The permit is not the difference in this equation.
I ask the Council to vote against this proposal and find another way to work with members of
community to spread the word on safe fire practices. Perhaps a demonstration on safe burning
would be a welcome addition to the Safety Preparedness pancake breakfast each year - where all
generations are present to learn?
Thank you for your attention to this matter.

{ǒĬƆĻĭƷʹ Open Air Burning Permit By-Law
We are writing this email in response to your proposed Permit.
1. You mention the purpose of the permit is to mitigate the potential for out of
control fires/damage to people and property. And to mitigate the effects of
nuisance smoke.
Exactly how will a tax accomplish that?
The purpose of this permit can be worded very creatively, but what it boils down to
is just another tax and erosion of our freedoms to enjoy our property unfettered.
As I understand it the fire department gets nuisance calls from neighbours
complaining about smoke, fires, etc. I'm sure those same people call the fire
department on an unfortunately regular basis and you more than likely know who
they are. And I understand those calls cost the fire department and the
municipality money, and wasted time.
My proposal is rather than tax everyone, fine those nuisance callers for the costs
involved and hold them responsible for their own actions. Better known as personal
responsibility.

To Mayor and Council
We are unable to attend this week's council meeting.
We strongly oppose the proposed licensing regulations for short term rentals in Oro
Medonte. These proposed regulations do not go far enough to address the concerns of residents
who do not want their neighbourhoods eroded by a series of small hotels with no proprietor
present. In a recent meeting of concerned community members many excellent suggestions
were made that are not included in this licensing proposal such as restricting the numbers,
changing the definitions of running a business from a home, minimum stays, only permitting
STR when the home is occupied by owners for a certain percentage of the year, and of course
banning them completely and many more . It is as if the 3 councillors who attended did not hear
us.
The Town of the Blue Mountains, which appears more like our communities than the big
cities, has banned them in residential neighbourhoods. This week's Toronto Star reported on
the many issues facing Prince Edward County. Communities everywhere are making more
restrictive regulations because of the continuous complaints of residents. McGill professor
David Wachsmuth who has studied Airbnb for 3 years has been quoted saying " I don't think
there is a single place that really solved this problem"
Please do not pass this licensing regulation as it is now and helps us to preserve the quality of life
and character of our existing residential communities. People are angry and disheartened and
desperately want a stronger stand to be taken than this one.

Re: Eight Mile Point Cottagers’ Association Position on Short Term Rentals
Dear Sirs:
The EMPCA Board of Directors met on May 10, 2019 with Councillor Randy Greenlaw concerning the
very serious issue of Short Term Rental operations that are disrupting residential communities in the
Township of Oro-Medonte.
The Eight Mile Point Cottagers’ Association includes 140 lakefront property owners on Eight Mile Point
which includes Eight Mile Point Road and McLean Crescent.
As you know, we are a quiet community with a ring road around our managed forest property known as
the McLean Reserve, an important protected environmental conservation area. We experience very
little through or outside traffic.
Based on input from our members, our Association is opposed to permitting commercial short term
rental properties to operate in the Eight Mile Point residential neighbourhood.
The purpose of these commercial short term rental properties is to operate as quasi-hotels, offering
short term accommodation on a per night basis. Increasingly, these are being operated by corporate
and individual owners holding multiple properties across Oro-Medonte and other townships. The scale
of the properties involved indicates that these groups are well funded and intend to have a significant
impact on our residential communities. These properties are not being rented out on a secondary basis
by an individual owner who personally resides at the property most of the time.
There is no legitimate rationale or public policy basis on which to allow this type of commercial rental
business to operate in a residential area. Our residential communities should not and cannot be allowed
to be used as the platform upon which commercial operators profit to the detriment of the ordinary
residents who make the community their home. Consider the following:
Page 14 of 469
2.a) Motion to Adopt the Agenda Comments received:
Unlike legitimate commercial hotels, short term rental properties have no “Front Desk” or onsite
personnel to deal with issues and disturbances caused by occupants. In neighbourhoods in the
Township where these properties are being operated there is ongoing evidence of loud parties
and other noise disturbances, safety and health risks resulting from outdoor fires and smoke
contamination, illegal parking of an excessive number of vehicles - in short a complete lack of
respect for the neighbours and the community.
The type and scale of municipal infrastructure required for a commercial short term rental
operation with a high turnover of occupants does not exist at Eight Mile Point. Our community
relies entirely on well water and septic systems.
Residential septic systems and well water resources are not designed for intensive ongoing use
by a high number of occupants. These systems will not be able to keep up with the demand and
will fail. Septic bed failure will adversely affect and jeopardize Lake Simcoe as well as
neighbouring properties, in direct contravention of the objectives of Ontario Regulation 315/10
under the Ontario Building Code, the Clean Water Act and the Lake Simcoe Protection Plan. Well
water aquifer depletion will have similar effects.
Township garbage collection limits are insufficient to accommodate the refuse generated by a
large number of temporary occupants which will undoubtedly lead to unauthorized dumping on
neighbouring properties and on the environmentally protected McLean Reserve.
Eight Mile Point Rd and McLean Crescent roadways are not designed for higher volumes of
traffic that are generated by commercial short term rental operations. The safety of residents
and children who enjoy walking and biking on our roadways will be put at significant risk by
drivers who are not familiar with the numerous blind spots that exist on our roadways.
These are examples of only some of the more serious consequences of allowing short term rental
properties to operate at Eight Mile Point or in other residential zones.
We are aware of submissions and recommendations to Council that propose that short term rental
properties be allowed to operate under a licensing regime. Some proposals have suggested that
licensing conditions include minimum rental periods and/or a maximum number of rental periods over
time. These licensing conditions will not be sufficient.
One of these proposals - a minimum seven day rental period - will not be effective as problem
properties tend to be rented on weekends only. Commercial operators will simply set a rental period
running from Monday to Monday at a weekly rate equivalent to the amount previously charged for a
weekend rental. There will still be a new rental every weekend.
Similarly, we are aware of a proposed licensing condition that would impose a maximum number of
rental days in a month or a year. Without stringent weekly inspections of each property by Township
enforcement officers, it will be left to the neighbouring residents to monitor and record usage of the
property over time. This is not an appropriate burden to place on the community.
Page 15 of 469
2.a) Motion to Adopt the Agenda Comments received:
We believe that this is an extremely serious and significant issue that threatens the fabric of our
community. Residents of Eight Mile Point and all residential zones in the Township have a fundamental
right to the quiet use and enjoyment of their properties, free from the permanent adverse effects of
commercial rental properties being operated in their residential neighbourhood.
We strongly urge Oro-Medonte Council to show leadership and to do the right thing and not permit
commercial short term properties to be operated on Eight Mile Point or other residential zones and
neighbourhoods in Oro-Medonte. Please respect our communities and our rights.
Yours Truly
Eight Mile Point Cottagers’ Association

Executive Summary
The Horseshoe Valley Property Owners Association is the largest Ratepayers Group in Oro-Medonte
with over 500 households as members in the largest settlement of the township, comprising over an
estimated 2,000 people.
On February 26, 2019 Horseshoe Valley Property Owners Association (HVPOA) Board of Directors sent a
letter to Council regarding our position on Short-Term Rentals (STRs) in Oro-Medonte. We felt at the
time it was a balanced approach that took into consideration the needs of the tourism industry while
protecting the rights of homeowners and residents.
Motion approved by HVPOA Board of Directors on May 20, 2019:
The HVPOA Board has reviewed DRAFT By-law No. 2019--law for the Licensing, Regulating,
and Governing of Short-Term Rental Accommodations in the Township of Oro-
it will not protect the rights of the homeowners and residents but rather will legitimize the
commercial use of homes in our communities.
Horseshoe Valley community is in a popular tourist area. There are already many accommodation
options available to visitors. These include Carriage Hills, Carriage Ridge, Horseshoe Resort and legal
Bed and Breakfasts. We do not support adding Short Terms Rentals to this mix if they are in
residential neighbourhoods or settlement areas, especially in major growth areas.
We need a total prohibition on Short Term Rentals (STRs) unless we are confident that licensing and
zoning requirements will protect the rights of the residents and our members and this draft By-law
We await the complete package that includes Phase 2 of this process
that we understand will include the zoning by-law land use controls before commenting further.
Background:
HVPOA Board of Directors Position 2019 was and continues to be:
1. The rights of homeowners and residents to peace and quiet and privacy is paramount and
should be protected.
2. Commercial businesses do not belong in areas zoned as residential and in settlement areas.
3. If STRs must be licensed and allowed anywhere in the township (i.e. rural areas and away for
settlements) they need to be strictly controlled and the regulations need to consider the
following issues:
a. Is the location of the STRs the primary residence of the operator and will they be on site
traditional Bed & Breakfast)?

2.a) Motion to Adopt the Agenda Comments received:
b. We DO NOT support entire homes being rented for a short term. These types of rentals
should be considered commercial businesses and should NOT be allowed in residential
areas.
c. There needs to be a minimum length of days of days operators are allowed rent for (7-14
days)
d. Is the home on a private septic system and if so, the number in the home cannot exceed the
approved capacity of that system?
e. Does the surrounding community support the opening of a STRs?
f. There must be proven adequate parking on site for the number of approved guests.
4. Any costs incurred by the Township for the administration of licensing or the enforcement of
regulations should be cost neutral to the taxpayers. These costs should be incurred by the
owner/operators of these rentals.
6. The existing traditional cottage rental industry and the traditional Bed & Breakfast (B&B) owners
should not be affected by new regulations or licensing.
hed prior to the enactment of
regulations or licensing. Once again, we are aware that new STRs are being added to the supply in Oro-
Medonte illegally even though there has been an Interim Control By-law in place since June 2018.
8. There should be a significant fine levied against STR owners that violate the regulations with a low to
zero tolerance for multiple infractions.
HVPOA Board of Directors Position
In February of this year HVPOA supported the development of a By-Law that was restrictive and
enforceable and prevented commercial STRs in residential areas. We feel this draft By-
achieve our requirements and therefore it should not be passed.
Our position remains that STRs do not belong in residential areas. There have been restrictions in place
for B&B for decades in Oro-Medonte. Why would we allow STRs to operate in residential areas without
adhering to the same rules? These rules include operators of a B&B to live on site and that it be their
primary residence. This By-Law will allow the STR operators to be 30 minutes away
it to be their primary residence. The very intent of the home -sharing industry was to encourage people
to share space in their own homes not to allow operators by-pass the legislation and regulations for
hotels and motels and other commercial accommodation.
The cost of cost of licencing, inspecting and enforcement is also a major concern to the HVPOA Board.
We are requesting that the Township provide the constituents with an estimate of these cost. Strict
enforcement is essential and as other municipalities have discovered that is very difficult to achieve and
very expensive.

2.a) Motion to Adopt the Agenda Comments received:
Conclusions:
The HVPOA Board of Directors does not support the passing of this draft By-Law. It will legitimize
commercial use of residential properties and will not be effective in ensuring residents safe and peaceful
enjoyment of their property. Our position is that STRs should not be allowed to operate in residential
and settlement areas, especially in major growth areas.
We are concerned about the cost to the taxpayer for the licensing, inspection and enforcement if this
By-Law is passed. We are asking to see the cost analysis.
We continue to support the extension and enforcement of the Interim Control By-Law until the staff has
time to develop a more restrictive solution to this problem the up-coming
summer season.
We also continue to believe that if this By-Law is passed operators who are currently ignoring the
warnings of the Municipal Law Enforcement Officers will now be legitimized and will continue to ignore
attempts at further enforcement. This reality is well documented in other municipalities who have
attempted similar weak strategies.
Thank you for your time,
Linda Myles, President HVPOA

Subject: short term rentals
Dear Mr Hughes and Mr Greenlaw,
Please find below a message that was sent to you and to Mr Jermey. I seem to have made a
mistake in your e-mail addresses. My first e-mail did not get through to you.
As a longtime cottager on Eight Mile Point, I am very concerned by the ever-growing presence
of short term rentals.
Why ?
The world we live in has evolved into a very individually-oriented way of life. Community, as I
knew it when I was growing up, seems to have disappeared. Do we know our neighbours? Do we
still count on those near by to help us when we need assistance?
An anonomous world, as ours is becoming, tends to create lack of respect, negligent and
aggressive behavior.
So what does this have to do with STR ?
great profit to a few profiteers) breaks up a
community and a sense of community. (« Who cares about this place, who cares about the next
»)
Do we want our community of Oro-Medonte turned in to a turnstile, our cherished countryside
turned in to commercial product to be used and left like Kleenex ?
Could we have a thought for protecting a treasure and resist bowing to the overwhelming
fascination with money and profit?
STR should be forbidden or, at the very least, rigourously limited and monitored.
Thank you for your attention.

Subject: Short term rental bylaw
To all the Mayor, Deputy Mayor and all the council Members,
These are some thoughts I have concerning your proposed bylaw amendments.
I am glad to see you are addressing the issue of the number of guests being rented to in
the short term rentals in Oro Medonte. I feel that ten is still too many. I understand from
Kim Pressnail that the town of Blue Mountain has restricted the guests to eight which
sounds slightly more reasonable. Ten people on a continuous short term basis could be
quite a strain on certain septic systems. Remember most families do not consist of ten
people.
If I were planning to buy a house and rent it out to to students , it would be highly
unlikely that I would rent it to ten students. Ten people is more than two average
families. I am not sure why you are being so generous to the short term operator on the
number of guests.
I noticed that you are deciding to licence homes in residential areas which are there
solely for the purpose of generating income. They are commercial businesses. I was
hoping you would ask for the home to be a primary residence, or that they had to live in
the home for a specific number of days of the year. All you require is that the owner/
manager is within half an hour of being called. The issue here is that you are licensing
ghost hotels in residential neighbourhoods. You are not licensing homes of people who
want to earn a little extra income while living in their homes. Ghost hotels destroy the
good for the hard working, tax paying residents of Oro Medonte.
When are you going to change the zoning bylaws to ban any new short term rentals in
residential neighbourhoods ? Right now you have an interim bylaw banning any new
ones but that time will run out. You are well within the law to change the zoning to do
this legally.
Thank you,
Connie McDermot.

Councillor Ian Veitch

Oro- Township
Dear Councillor Veitch:
Thank you for drawing attention to the Notice of Meeting and the presentation of the Draft 2019-
053 Short Term Rental Accommodation By-Law.
The Draft By-Law, which is being presented on Wednesday, does not address the issues that
some area ratepayers have brought to your attention, falling woefully short on providing
solutions or adequate tools and measures to control existing and future STRs.
We believe that municipalities that have placed caps on the number of days an STR can operate
per year and those that have introduced hotel taxes into the scheme are moving in the right
direct
Niagara-on-the-Lake has taken the lead in providing purchasers in new housing developments
dwelling for a min This measure serves to
discourage STR speculators from purchasing multiple dwellings in neighbourhoods which sadly
is what appears to have happened on Landscape Drive in Horseshoe Highlands, and if left
unaddressed will negatively impact new developments.
We are not in favour of allowing STRs to operate in residential areas. That being said, it appears
that staff are supportive of allowing these businesses to continue with minor controls. As our
voice on Council, we respectfully encourage you to introduce a motion to have the proposed by-
law amended to include the above-mentioned best practices and tools that will hopefully slow
and control the growth of STRs in our neighbourhood.

rights to allow non permanent owners who have bought for the soul purpose of investment and
income and do not even reside or intend to reside in the property they own to rent their property
to anyone as they desire . There is a group of people who plan to buy out residents and make our
residential areas income only areas and I wish our representatives would have the courage and
foresight to protect us from this happening . There must be a way to protect residents who just
want quiet use of their homes without having to deal with people who have rented for the

Subject: Occupant Limits and the draft Licensing By-law
Mr. Greenlaw,
After our Community Hall meeting in Oro Station you asked me about possible occupant limits
for short term rentals. I replied that I believed that an absolute cap was in order such as the cap
applied in Blue Mountains. I also stated that any cap should be subject to health and safety
limits related to the design capacity of the septic system. When I had looked at the issue back in
August 2018 and I had concluded that many septic systems are not designed for intensive
occupancies. Attached is a summary of my views on occupant limits particularly related to
septic systems. I am NOT and expert in the area, but I believe that I understand the design
requirements of septic systems as described in Part 8 of Ontario Building Code.
My concise summary and recommendation is:
In addition to an absolute cap, where a short term rental is serviced by a septic system, occupant
limits based on safety and the environment should be considered as well. Thus, short term
rentals shoul
The attached note explains and supports this recommendation with reference to the Ontario
Building Code.
Further, to my attached note
If you read the advertisements for hotels on the lakefront you will find that they
advertise the number of bedrooms + the number of pull out couches/ beds. Presumably these will
be c The draft licensing by-
10 or two times the number of guest areas is fundamentally flawed from an environmental and
from a health point of view.

Occupant Limits:
Proposal: An absolute cap subject to safety limits.
In addition to an absolute cap, where a short term rental is serviced by a septic system,
occupant limits based on safety and the environment should be considered as well. Thus, short
term rentals should be limited to of 8, or the number of occupants as determined
by
Commentary:
The Town of the Blue Mountains limits the number of occupants to 8 in ƓĻǞ short-tem rentals.
Yet, most homes are serviced by sewers and they do not even permit short term rentals if they
are they are on septic systems. This absolute cap is intended to avoid the occurrence of the
most disruptive rentals which usually involve more than 8 people. Further, this cap is
consistent with single family use since most families are often smaller than 8.
However, in some cases, 8 occupants may be more people than the septic system can handle.
Thus, there is a need to consider the safe occupancy based on the capacity of the system at the
time of the design/construction. (Note: grandfathered uses should NOT be permitted to
intensify if their previous use was unsafe.)
There are at least two methods of estimating the appropriate occupancy for a given septic
design based on the number of bedrooms. At best, these are only estimates of the appropriate
occupancy because they are only as good as the underlying assumptions. These two methods
are outlined in the table below.
Method Occupant Estimator Underlying Assumptions
2 times the number of bedrooms i) Daily flow rate per person is
1 approximately 275 L/d/p; 2 people per
bedroom
ii) Less intensive occupancy schedule
Number of bedrooms + 2 i) Daily flow rate per person is 500
2 L/d/p
ii) More intensive occupancy schedule
Method 1 assumes that the occupancy is equivalent to
1
Multi-family Dwellings. In establishing a flow rate of 275 L/d/p, assumptions about the
occupancy schedule have been made. In order arrive at such a flow rate, the fact that
occupants are away from the home (at work or school or other activities away from the home)
for a significant period of time is taken into consideration. Therefore, this flow rate is based on
an assumed occupancy schedule, and it should not be used where the occupants remain at a
home for longer periods of time. This leads to Method 2.

Page 27 of 469
2.a) Motion to Adopt the Agenda Comments received:
Method 2
This method, is similar to Method 1, but assumes that the occupants remain at a home for
longer periods of time. Thus, the underlying occupancy is considered to be the same as a
hotel/cottage where the use is more intensive. Accordingly, this method uses the sewage flow
rate for Hotels/Cottages which is 500 Litres per day per person as prescribed by the Ontario
2
Building Code.
The fundamental problem with the approaches used in Methods 1 and 2, is that both methods
fail to take into account how Sewage System Design Flows are actually determined for
dwellings. In sizing septic systems based on design flows for residential occupancies (dwellings),
wo other
additional factors that may require an increase in the design flow capacity. These two factors
are: the number of fixture units in excess of a base number and the floor area in excess of a
base number. The larger of these latter two factors is then combined with the tabulated
bedroom flows to determine the design sewage flows rate.
Determining a Safe Occupant Limit of a Septic System Using a Two Step Process:
One needs to look beyond the number of bedrooms to account for these other factors.
Counting bedrooms is a simple approach but it is not the most rigorous nor is it necessarily safe.
The most rigorous, defensible and ultimately safest way to determine the appropriate
occupancy for a given septic design, involves two steps.
Step 1:
The first step is to determine the design sewage flow rate of the existing system. This can be
done by examining permit data. If these data are unavailable, then the design sewage flow
rate can be estimated by assuming that the system was designed following the appropriate
Ontario Building Code (OBC). Using the OBC, the design sewage flow rate can then be
calculated based on the building characteristics at the time the septic system was
designed/constructed. This latter step involves a spreadsheet calculation using the number of
bedrooms, floor areas/ fixture units.
Step 2:
Once the design sewage flow rate has been determined, the second step is to take this daily
design flow rate and divide it by the flow rate per person. Where the occupancies are similar to
hotel/cottage occupancies, the prescribed flow rate of 500 Litres per day/ person should be
used. The result will provide the best estimate of the safe occupancy.

A Sample Calculation:
Q: What is a safe occupancy for a home serviced by a septic system designed and constructed using the
Part 8 of the OBC 2017? The home is a four bedroom home which has three full bathrooms, extra sink
in ensuite, kitchen sink, washer, laundry tub, dishwasher and total living space of 305 square meters
See: https://buildersontario.com/septic-system-cost-ontario
Step #1
Determine the Design Sewage Flow Rate
For a four bedroom house, the bedroom rate is 2000 L/d as specified in Table 8.2.1.3 A(Item
4d).
To the bedroom rate we need to add the greater of:
i) Added flow rate for Fixtures: Where the total fixture count is greater than 20, then
50 L/d should be added for each fixture unit greater than 20. In the sample home,
the number of fixture units is 25.5. Therefore, the inflation factor for fixture units is:
(25.5 20) x 50 = 275L/d.
-or-
ii) Added factor for Living Space: Next, you need to determine the added flow rate for
22
living space over 200 square meters ( but less than 400m) . For every 10m over 200
2
m, an additional flow rate of 100 L/d needs to be added. Therefore, the added flow
for additional flow considering floor area would be: (305-200) x 10 L/d= 1,100 L/d
Since ii) is greater than i) then the design sewage flow rate is:
2000 L/d + 1,100 L/d = 3100 L/d
Step #2
Determine the Safe Occupancy
Using a per person flow rate of 500 L/d for hotel/cottage occupancies, the safe occupancy can
be calculated for the four bedroom home as follows:
3100 L/d = 6 people
500 L/d/p
Thus, for the 4 bedroom example home, the safe occupancy based on the design sewage flow
rate is 6 people.

township, I wanted to address several items that I could not find noted within the by-law or that
were concerning. ed and/or already addressed in the
consultations and discussions that resulted in creation of this draft by law.
Of note:
Section 3 - Licensing Requirements
(e) and (f) Ability of a
This is akin to having a business being conducted in the neighbourhood rather than the residence
being a primary or principal place of dwelling. It is a reasonable inference, based on the
experience of many of our residents already, that a corporation (or group of people) owning one
of these properties is not buying, using or intending it for their primary residence. As you have
heard from Oro Medonte residents living next to some
sites are operating entirely as commercial ventures.
anonymity of a corporate name or partnership creates an environment for there to be no
accountability for actions, especially when it is also not their primary residence or a property
they have an interest in other than monetarily. The difference between the new model of short
term rentals and the historical family cottage rental that we are all familiar with in cottage
country, is that the family cottage/home rental owner has a vested interest in ensuring the renter
selected is respectful both to the property (their property) and neighbours (their
neighbours). Allowing corporations and partnerships to obtain short term rental licensing in our
neighbourhoods will have long term affects to our neighbourhoods and communities, as well as
our infrastructure.

2.a) Motion to Adopt the Agenda Comments received:
Section 5 - Issuance of Licence and grounds for refusal
t was raised months ago by
current residents who live year-round in Oro Medonte and/or those who have been spending their
summers in our township for years without issue?
1. Has there been consideration given to capping the total number of licences that will be issued
township-wide, recognizing that certain neighbourhoods are more desirable locations for short
term rental? Conversely, perhaps a look at a certain percentage per geographic area, street or
residential community area.
2. Similarly, have there been any discussions on setting parameters for preventing single family
dwellings from being sandwiched between or surrounded entirely by multiple short term rental
properties?
For example, on Maplewood Parkway there are four large dwellings, two of which are on either
side of a single family dwelling. Moon Point has several short term rentals of varying sizes, some
in very close proximity to each other. Eight Mile Point is the same, and I would expect the same
patterns in ownership are happening elsewhere in the more desirable short term rental
locations. Can you assure current residents, that their concerns are being heard and are being
given due priority, value and weight to that which is being given to those hoping to come into
our neighbourhoods purely for self or corporate interest and profit. The impact of being
surrounded by transient neighbours has implications for sense of community, investment in local
economy and our home values as well.
I want to thank you all for your work on this as I know it will affect all of us and our
families/friends one day soon, and I am sure you have put full consideration into this. As local
residents yourselves, I am sure you can imagine what it would be like to have the character of
your neighbourhood be changed by the arrival of a corporate venture next door.
Respectfully submitted for your consideration,
Tara Sutherland

Sent from Mail for Windows 10
Dear Mayor, Deputy Major and members of council.
I understand that council will be addressing the proposed Bill 108 at the meeting on
Wed. Unfortunately, I am out of country and unable to attend, however, I am deeply concerned
about the implications of this bill. It seems to restore the old OMB, which was criticized for
being overly pro developers, and gives full license to developers to bypass important
environmental protections, even putting certain at risk species at great danger, all in the name of
expediting development and reducing red tape. To me this is yet another attempt to destroy
important environmental protections and restore Section 10 of Bill 66, which we protested, and
successfully defeated, last fall. Our region, like many other regions of Ontario, is coming under
increasing pressure for development, yet unless we are adamant in insisting on stringent
environmental protection for our water, our forests and wetlands, we are at risk of losing the very
things we all treasure. I urge you to most strenuously protest this bill.
Yours truly
Debbie Palmer

Emergency Services staff to educate and regulate the public on safe burning methods.
Please see the table below for the proposed fee information:

burn day issuance until 6:00pm that
same day.
As the By-Law will allow for fees to be charged for an Open Air Burn Permit, the Township

per Ontario Regulation 2004/02.

{ǒĬƆĻĭƷʹ PROPOSED FEES FOR FIRE BURNING
Good Day:
As a resident in Oro-Medonte and, after reading about this proposed NEW FEE, I felt compelled to write
you to ask whether the Township and Fire Prevention folks actually believe that by having us pay a $20
fee for a permit, that this will somehow make us all more responsible?
Currently, the bylaw officers want a 'formal written complaint' to be issued by a resident against
whatever the complaint is in order for them to 'act'. They can barely keep up with the complaints they
get and SELDOM do we see them driving around checking and doing their job WITHOUT a formal written
complaint.
Rest assured that by the time someone files this 'formal complaint' about a person with a fire going, the
fire will have long since been put out. Most of your bylaw people are only available during the day
during the week with only a skeleton staff in the evenings and weekends.
Again, I fail to understand or see how inflicting this meaningless $20 fee on a resident is somehow going
to change or cause a resident to become more responsible. Can you or someone explain this to me
please?
As I stated previously, there are numerous infractions existing within this Township that the bylaw folks
have done nothing about unless they receive something in writing. Most residents are not stupid. They
are well aware that once a written FORMAL complaint is lodged, the resident ignoring the bylaw will
then become well aware of WHO lodged the complaint which only helps to create tension between
residents. Dogs being walked OFF LEASH or left to BARK for lengthy periods of time as well as people
who have TORN UP THEIR FRONT LAWN and have NO GRASS there (violating existing bylaws) doesn't
seem to be of any concern to the bylaw people. How will having residents pay a $20 fee change how
these same people manage their own fires on their own property??????? And more importantly, how
would one (namely your bylaw people) even KNOW when a fire is being burned WITHOUT a resident
having a permit? If your bylaw people don't do "drive bys" now and most of these fires would occur, as
stated, in an evening or weekend, there'd be little likelihood the bylaw folks would even have a clue.
Don't think for a second that the volunteer fire department folks will be doing drive bys nor will the OPP.
So just how is this going to work? To me, it seems like nothing more than a $20 tax grab!!!!!!!!
I look forward to your response in a timely manner.
Thank you.

It would appear that this new permit/tax would be aimed at the wrong group.
Most people I know have small fire pit or fireplace. If the problem is the number of call outs then you
need to focus your attention on the people making the calls and not on the folks enjoying a little back
yard fire. The person having the fire should not have to pay to educate the reporter.
If council wants to raise taxes, just do it and forget about calling it a permit fee.
Will the individual councillor votes be recorded in the minutes or does that need a councillor to ask for
it.

Just a comment re the proposed open air fire by law. We have neighbors two doors down and also
across the street who habitually burn leaves instead of bagging. It fills the whole neighborhood with
smoke for hours at a time making it most unpleasant to be outdoors or have windows open.
We have never complained and I know it's an unpopular opinion but it's most unpleasant.

I am unable to attend the meeting where this proposal will be discussed and so I wish to register (in
advance) my strong disagreement with the proposed Bylaw - as related in particular to non-farm, non-
commercial bonfires. These private bonfires are a tradition in our rural setting and form part of the
enjoyable fabric of 'country' life. I suggest that Council should not mess with such a 'tradition' unless
that tradition is hurting someone.
I believe that the proposed Oro-Medonte fire permit system will not achieve anything important.
Therefore, the $20 annual fee will be perceived, by most of the hundreds of Oro-Medonte Ratepayers I
represent, as a 'cash grab' of little merit.
Many of us also believe that our elected Council should be proposing and passing more important and
urgent actions than this one - and our Township employees should also be enforcing and taking
action on priority tasks.

Sent from my iPad
Begin forwarded message:
To: Clerk of the Township and
Karen: as residents of Sprucewood Estates we just want our quiet subdivision to
devalue our properties.
We ask that Oro Medonte Council and Staff please consider the following:
1. Home rentals can only be made if the home is a private and primary
residence of the homeowner, and, rentals cannot be owned/operated
by a corporation
2. Rentals must be at least one week in duration (no overnight or
'weekend' rentals)
3. All STR's must be registered and licensed and must meet code
requirements for fire, life safety and septic based on total occupancy
(beds) advertised/rented
4. All STR applications must be vetted with neighbours and a notice
sent out by Council advising that a home as applied for a
license. Residents would thus have the same right to petition Council
as they would if a neighbour wanted to build a new garage or put an
addition onto their home. The rental license would thus be approved
by Council, or not, based on the input by the neighbours and
recommendation of Staff.
5. Existing rental operations would be given a grace period of 6 months
to comply with the new regulations or face shut-down by the
Township.
6. A complaint mechanism put in place whereby repeat registered
rental offenders can lose their license should there be three or more
instances of noise complaints, garbage, speeding, overcrowding, etc.

Re: Provincial Funding Cuts and Proposed Legislative Changes for
Conservation Authorities
As you may be aware, conservation authorities across Ontario, including the
Nottawasaga Valley Conservation Authority (NVCA), recently received
notification of a 50 percent cut in provincial funding to our flood management
programs. A week later, the Province announced the elimination of its support
funding source f Also eliminated were
summer staffing programs on which we rely for monitoring and conservation
services support.
Concurrently, the Province is undertaking consultations on two legislative
changes related to conservation authorities. These changes look
put in place measures intended to increase transparency, consistency and
governance.
The attached background document provides more information on both the
funding cuts and the proposed legislative changes. We encourage you to
review the information, particularly as the funding cuts and legislative
changes the
authority offers to your municipality and its residents.

Prepared by the Nottawasaga Valley Conservation Authority (NVCA) May 2, 2019
Background
On Friday, April 12, 2019, the Province informed conservation authorities of a 50%
reduction to provincial natural hazard transfer payments. This cut to NVCA flood
management program took effect immediately.
A week later, the Province announced it had ended all future support for the 50 Million
Tree Program. This program, operated by Forests Ontario, provided Ontario landowners
with seedlings at a subsidized cost. The 50 Million Tree Program is the largest funding
.
In addition, two provincial consultations on conservation authorities were posted in April
on the Environmental Registry. These consultations are looking at:
a) Focusing Conservation Authority Development Permits on the Protection of People
and Property (ERO # 013-4992)
A regulation is being proposed that outlines how conservation authorities permit
development and other activities for impacts to natural hazards and public safety.
The proposed regulation will make rules for development in hazardous areas
more consistent to support faster, more predictable and less costly approvals
b) Modernizing Conservation Authority Operations Conservation Authorities Act
(ERO # 013-5018)
This proposal introduces amendments to the Conservation Authorities Act to focus
and deliver on the core mandate of the authorities, and to improve governance.
Among other actclearly define the core mandatory
programs and services provided by conservation authorities, to be natural hazard
protection and management, conservation and management of conservation lands,
drinking water source protection (as prescribed by the Clean Water Act), and
protection of the Lake Simcoe watershed.
This consultation will look at how conservation authorities levy municipalities,
Page 298 of 469
14.d) Correspondence received from George Watson Chair, NVCA, and Counci...
Page 4of 6
and the process for conservation authority/municipal agreements for the delivery
of non-mandatory programs and services.
Note that the Conservation Authorities Act was amended in 2017 following an extensive,
multi-year, public consultation.
Implications of Funding Cuts Announced to Date
Flood Program Funding Cuts
The provincial government halved the funding NVCA received for warning people about
flooding and protecting property from damage, while stating that it is re-focusing
conservation authorities on this core mandate.
Impact for NVCA - $91K reduction in funding
While NVCA is seeking ways to reduce costs and source alternative funding, it is
likely that the program will run a deficit in 2019. If the entire $91,000 was to be
added to the municipal levy in 2020, this would amount to a 3.7% increase.
Why does this matter?
A-based
programs that protect people and property from flooding and other natural hazards.
Our flood program uses an integrated approach that focusses on preventing and
reducing flood risks. We do this in two ways through planning/regulation, and
through flood monitoring/warning.
NVCA plays a front-line role in monitoring our watershed for flood risk and in
issuing flood warning messages. To do this, we maintain a network of stream
gauges, monitor weather conditions and survey the winter snowpack.
o NVCA maintains flood control structures such as dams and dikes.
o NVCA contributes to municipal emergency planning and preparedness
activities.
Cuts come at a time when climate change is increasing the frequency and risks
from flooding and other weather-related natural disasters. Flooding is the most
common natural disaster in Canada, and the costs associated with flooding are
rising.
The costs of avoiding or minimizing one modest municipal and provincial
emergency management operation would fund proactive flood planning and
prediction for years and reduce the insurance premiums paid by homeowners.

14.d) Correspondence received from George Watson Chair, NVCA, and Counci...
Page 5of 6
50 Million Tree Program Funding Cuts
The provincial government eliminated all funding for the 50 Million Tree Program. This
program offset the cost to private landowners to plant trees on the property, which
mitigate climate change, slow runoff and erosion, and support clean water for all
residents. Through the program, NVCA planted close to 1.7 million trees since its inception
in 2008.
Impact for NVCA $250K reduction in funding
The 2019 planting will take place as NVCA access to this critical program remains.
Funding for 2020 and beyond is uncertain at this time.
Why does this matter?
Tree planting is a simple way to make a positive impact on the environment and an
effective way to mitigate climate change. Growing trees absorb CO and store it in
2
the wood.
Tree planting and other conservation
mitigate flooding, erosion and other natural hazards. Trees are planted as living
snow fences (to reduce winter road closures) and alongside streams to improve
water quality.
Other Cuts Summer Students
Provincial funding for two summer staff to assist with water quality monitoring and
stewardship has been eliminated. Further, the Ontario Federation of Anglers and Hunters
(OFAH) lost funding for their invasive species summer student program. NVCA was host to
an OFAH student each summer.
Impact for NVCA $15K reduction in funding for staffing
Why does this matter?
NVCA collects water quality data (surface and groundwater) in support of projects
and programs to protect and enhance water quality and aquatic habitats. This
scientific data allows local, provincial and federal decision-makers to make
informed judgements on planning and policy matters.
Stewardship the work of protecting and enhancing our natural environment
benefits all of us with better water quality, recreational opportunities (like fishing),
and overall quality of life.
during the short summer season. Summer staff allow NVCA to conduct this work in
a very cost efficient manner.

5.131-Jan-2019 financial statement
Discussion: C. McLaughlin explained why the profit and loss statements for both the

funds after they have been expensed, i.e. SSS pays for all the costs associated with
the project and then FCM reimburses SSS. C. McLaughlin expressed that the
committee will need to discuss how to make up projected revenues if one or more
partners do not provide their 2019 contribution, otherwise SSS will face a projected
budget deficit. Acting Chair C. McLaughlin requested a motion to receive the Jan-31-

*The Partners for Climate Protection (PCP) program is a network of Canadian municipal governments that have committed
to reducing greenhouse gases (GHG) and to acting on climate change. Since the program's inception in 1994, over 350
municipalities have joined PCP, making a public commitment to reduce GHG emissions. PCP membership covers all
provinces and territories and accounts for more than 65 per cent of the Canadian population. The PCP program is managed
and delivered by FCM and ICLEI Canada. FCM and ICLEI Canada form the PCP Secretariat, which provides administrative and
technical support, develops tools and resources, and delivers capacity building activities to support members in reducing
local GHG emissions. The program empowers municipalities to take action against climate change through a five-milestone
process that guides members in creating GHG inventories, setting GHG reduction targets, developing local action plans,
implementing actions to reduce emissions, and monitoring and reporting on results. SSS acts as the Associate Member on
behalf of the PCP member municipalities, and is responsible for assisting the member municipalities with membership
requirements and program advancement.

Dear Mayor Harry Hughes,
On May 2, I released More Homes, More Choice:
provides families with more meaningful choices on where to live, work and raise their families.
The Greater Golden Horseshoe is a critical economic driver, both provincially and nationally, with
y 2041. We know that we
need a growth plan to not only address the current housing crisis, but to also prepare the region for
the exponential growth that will occur over the next 20 years. That is why A Place to Grow:
Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe
Action Plan.
and its local priorities. It is the result of the recent consultations on growth plan policies in the
Greater Golden Horseshoe, and I would like to thank you for sharing your input during that
process. All input was carefully considered in the development of A Place to Grow and the
introduction of the Provincially Significant Employment Zones. A Place to Grow will help increase
housing supply, create jobs, attract investments and promote economic development. It comes into
effect on May 16, 2019 and aims to provide planning flexibility at the local level.
In my letter of May 2, 2019, I outlined that we have identified 29 Provincially Significant
Employment Zones that we consulted on to provide enhanced protections for existing employment
areas. The 29 zones have not changed as a result of consultations; however, we have revised
them to address any factual errors in the mapping based on municipal official plans that are in
effect. These zones can be viewed on our web portal.
Requests for Reconsideration
Page 330 of 469
14.i) Correspondence received from Steve Clark, Minister of Ministry of ...
During the next phase of work, we will be reviewing more than 750 requests we received during
the consultation period to reconsider a particular zone and/or add new zones. As a part of this, we
may require additional information from municipalities and others who submitted requests.Each
request will be assessed on its own merit, and other considerations, such as local planning context
and provincial interest.
To help process these reconsiderations, we will be seeking demonstrable municipal support, such
as a council endorsed letter that outlines local support for the request. We will work with the parties
involved to connect with the appropriate municipal officials.
Any requests for reconsideration received after May 2, 2019 should be submitted to the impacted
municipality to include in its planning process or should be accompanied by a letter of
endorsement from the impacted municipality when submitted to the Province. Further details on
the Requests for Reconsideration process including how requests are assessed can be found
online at www.ontario.ca/page/provincially-significant-employment-zones.
If you have questions about the zones, the Requests for Reconsideration process, or accessing
mapping files of the existing zones, please contact ministry staff at growthplanning@ontario.ca.
Engagement on longer-term use of Provincially Significant Employment Zones
The last phase of work will look at the longer-term use of Provincially Significant Employment
Zones. The ministry has already begun to consider innovative ways to use the zones to leverage
economic development investments, programs and strategies both inside and outside the Greater
Golden Horseshoe. Our goal is to maximize the economic opportunities that these zones can
provide. This includes but is not limited to the number of jobs and people in these zones as they
play a strategic and significant role in keeping Ontario economically viable both provincially and
internationally.
Provincially Significant Employment Zones can be areas with high concentrations of employment,
areas that are recognized to have high economic output, or areas that are understood to play an
economically strategic or significant role to the region. They will help provide stable, reliable
employment across the region and opportunities for greater integration of the different facets of
longer-term planning.
With our partners from the ministries of Economic Development, Job Creation, and Trade;
Open for Business Division, we will be holding stakeholder discussions this summer. These
discussions will focus on ways to maximize the use of the zones as tools in investments,
infrastructure planning and economic activity.
In the interim, if you have any questions, concerns or ideas, feel free to contact the representative
in my office, Jae Truesdell, Senior Policy Advisor Planning, Zoning & Development at
jae.truesdell@ontario.ca. You may also contact Cordelia Clarke Julien, Assistant Deputy Minister,

to work together in the months ahead.

Mayor/Reeve and Clerk/CAO/Treasurer,
First, I would like to congratulateallrecently elected officials and wish you great success in
your new roles.
2018has been a year of substantial accomplishments suchas the transitioning of another
two municipalities to theOntario Provincial Police (OPP), multiple contract renewals,and
countless presentations to municipal councils throughout the province. OPP Municipal
Policing Bureau staff will strive to make great progress tocontinue to build municipal
relationships through excellentcommunication, contract and financialmanagement.
As some of you may know, the government appointed Commissioner Thomas Carrique as
the 15th OPP Commissioner to lead the police service in its 110year history.Following the
announcement of his appointment, Commissioner Carrique stated he is extremely grateful
for and deeply honouredby the confidence placed in himby the provincial government and
the Ministry of the Solicitor General to serve alongside the dedicated and professional
members of the OPP, in aleadership role.We are all looking forward to strengthen our
relationship with the municipalities the OPP policesunder Commissioner Carrique’s
leadership.
The Comprehensive Ontario Police Services Act, 2019, received Royal Assent on March 26,
2019.Other than Special Investigation Unit modernization section,all other sections have
not yet been proclaimed into force. This act creates the Community Safety and Policing Act,
2019(CSPA),which will come into force on a date that has not yetbeen determinedby
government.Relevant regulations to the CSPAare currently being written. This will
eventually lead to the legislation coming into force. When this new legislation comes into
force, the current Police Services Act, 1990, (PSA)will be repealed. Until then, the PSA
remains in force.We will keep you informed on this progression.
Recently, youor staff members of your municipalityhavebeen contacted by our membersto
build awareness of the resourcesavailableto you, such as our webpage
www.opp.ca/billingmodelmaterials,andoffer toanswer any of thequestions you may have
on the billing model and present to your municipalities, if necessary. Thank you for your
feedback.
In an effort to bring our communication to the next level, our bureau announced the
implementation of the ePost mailing system. Your municipality will besent instructionsto
set-upupto threeePost user accounts (Mayor/ Reeve, CAO/Clerk, PSB Chair (if
applicable))to allow for more efficient and innovative distribution of the annual billing
statements and other correspondence. The ePost system is run by Canada Post and is
officialandlegal mail. This systemhas been operated by Canada Post for 19years,and has

been adopted throughout the country by numerous municipalities and various pension and
pay organizations.The intention is to provide timely and reliable information to our hundreds
of municipalities and avoid the unreliable nature of the current mailingsystem.
I would like to welcome your views or any comments youmay have to enhance our
communicationand invite you to ask questions ofmyself or any member of the OPP

Stakeholder Notice
Simcoe Muskoka Catholic District School Board
2018 Education Development Charge By-law
2019 Amendment and Rate Phase-In
The Simcoe Muskoka Catholic District School Board (SMCDSB) undertook the process to
renew its -law during 2017/18. The EDC
by-law the Board enacted in 2013 was set to expire at the close of business on November
3, 2018, as EDC by-laws have a maximum term of five years. The Board was initially
considering passage of a renewal by-law in June of 2018. However, shortly before the 2018
Provincial election, Ministry of Education staff notified the SMCDSB (as well as other school
boards considering EDC renewals) that the Ministry would be temporarily withholding
approvals of EDC Background Studies. The Provincial legislation pertaining to EDCs
requires that the Minister approve certain assumptions contained in the EDC Background
Study in order for a school board to have the authority to pass a new or replacement EDC
by-law. The lack of Ministry approval resulted in the SMCDSB deferring EDC by-law
passage consideration meetings until the Fall of 2018.
During the early summer of 2018, The Ministry of Education and the newly elected
Provincial government worked with school boards undergoing EDC renewals to provide the
necessary EDC Background Study approvals. Specifically, the two Halton Region School
Boards had EDC by-laws that lapsed due to the lack of required Ministry of Education
approvals. This resulted in an agreement between the Halton Boards and the Ministry of
Education, pursuant to which the Boards passed EDC by-laws that came into force but
maintained EDCs at their existing rates for a period of up to one year while the Ministry
continued to review the EDC regulatory framework.
On October 12, 2018, an amendment was made to the legislation that governs EDCs. The
Minister of Education enacted Ontario Regulation 438/18 which amended Ontario
Regulation 20/98. The amendment effectively froze EDCs at the rates that were in effect on
August 31, 2018. This applied to all new EDC by-laws and amendments to in-force by-laws.
The amendment to Ontario Regulation 20/98 essentially codified the aforementioned
agreement made with the Halton Boards (with the exception of the one-year by-law term)
and imposed it on all other EDC school boards. The SMCDSB subsequently received
Ministry approval of its EDC Background Study and as a result, passed a new EDC by-law
on October 25, 2018 that came into force October 30, 2018.
The current EDC rate for the Simcoe Muskoka Catholic District School Board is as follows:
1. $448.00 per residential dwelling unit and $0.12 per square foot of non-residential gross
floor area.

On March 29, 2019, the Government of Ontario issued Ontario Regulation 55/19 which
further amended Ontario Regulation 20/98. A main purpose of this amendment was to
partially relax the above noted rate freeze and provide a provisional phase-in of proposed
EDC rates. A school board can now increase its existing residential EDC rate by $300 or by
5% of the existing rate, whichever is greater. In addition, in the second year of the by-law
and each subsequent year, the rate can increase by a further $300 or 5% of the previous
-residential EDC rate by
5% of the existing rate; in the second year of the by-law and each subsequent year, the
non-
The proposed EDC rate in the Boards 2018 EDC Background Study is, $1,472 per
residential dwelling unit and $0.40 per square foot of non-residential gross floor area.Under
the recently amended legislation, the Board is permitted to increase its residential EDC rate
by $300 over the existing rate and its non-residential rate by 5% over the existing rate.
The table below provides the proposed phase-in rates for the 8 EDC by-law.
Board staff is preparing an information report to the Board of Trustees recommending that
the Board amend the 2018 EDC by-law in order to implement the permitted phase-in amounts
and to also extend the term of the 2018 by-law to the maximum permitted of five years (in this
case, an additional four years). SMCDSB staff intends to present the report to the Board of
Trustees on June 5, 2019, which will recommend that the Board enact an amending by-law
on June 5, 2019. Should the Board pass an amending EDC by-law as recommended, such
by-law would come into force on the fifth day after it is passed, with collection of the increased
rates commencing on June 10, 2019.
If there are any questions or comments, please advise Board staff as soon as possible.

The Township of Mulmur passed the following motion at the Council meeting on May 1, 2019.
Motion #83-19 Boxem-Cufaro: WHEREAS, Mulmur Township Council considers
public libraries as a vital service to community well-being especially in a rural
community such as ours;
AND WHEREAS, public libraries offer much needed support to the very vulnerable
members of our society - the children, the seniors, recent immigrants, and the low-
income citizens;
AND WHEREAS, the Provincial Government has cut the budget for Ontario Library
Services by 50%;
AND WHEREAS, this funding will end the Interlibrary Loan Service to libraries;
AND WHEREAS, due to limited resources available to some libraries, the Interlibrary
Loan Service is of great importance to its patrons;
NOW THEREFORE, Mulmur Township Council respectfully requests that the Province
reconsiders the 50% budget cut for Ontario Library Services and finds some other
means to fund necessary library services.
Carried.

provided by a regional public health entity that will also serve Sudbury, North Bay, Parry Sound, Algoma,
Porcupine, Timiskaming and part of Renfrew; he also was informed that Simcoe County will be served by
a public health entity that will also serve York Region. From this communication it is also Dr. Gardner’s
understanding that the provincial government is willing to consider feedback on these boundary
changes. The Board appreciates having the opportunity to recommend that all of the territory served by
SMDHU be combined with that of York Region in a new regional public health entity.
The Board and staff have worked very hard since the inception of SMDHU (the result of a merger
prompted by the province in 2005) in order to create a cohesive public health agency that is highly
successful in fulfilling its mandate. The District of Muskoka benefits from public health services provided
in partnership with Simcoe County. The division of our Muskoka and Simcoe operations would disrupt
and undermine program delivery.
The geographic area of the proposed northeastern regional public health entity is extremely large (over
400,000 kilometers, extending to James Bay). Providing public health services over such a large and low
density area will be very challenging, and it will be very difficult for the governance and management of
such a regional public health entity to provide attention to local service provision. The provision of
public health services in the District of Muskoka would be more challenging within this very large public
health entity than they would be if Muskoka were to join Simcoe County in a regional public health
entity with York Region. The provision of public health services for the remaining communities in the
proposed northeastern regional public health entity would also be further challenged with the addition
of Muskoka to their territory.
The inclusion of the District of Muskoka with Simcoe County and York Region in a single public health
entity would also be consistent with the observation that in general, the community and health care
service referral patterns in Muskoka are directed to facilities in Simcoe County (Barrie and Orillia), and to
communities further south (including in York Region).

14.r) Correspondence received from the Simcoe Muskoka District Health Un...
Finally, of great concern to the Board is the reality that the division of Muskoka from Simcoe would
greatly increase the complexity, cost and duration of time required for the creation of the new public
health entities, compared with having Muskoka and Simcoe join together with the public health services
in York Region. A merger between SMDHU and York Region would be complex on its own, however the
splitting of our operations between Simcoe and Muskoka at the same time as mergers both with York,
and with six other health units to the north would be overwhelming in its complexity.
Given the inherent and substantial disadvantages of dividing Simcoe and Muskoka, the Board
recommends that SMDHU join in its entirety with York Region in the modernization of public health.
Thank you for considering our recommendation.

SECTION 5 - THE INVESTMENT MANDATES
5.01 Investment Mandates. The Investor agrees with the Agent and all other Investors that each
Investment Mandate is an aggregation of assets. At any time, each Investor who has made investments in
accordance with a specific Investment Mandate has at that time, subject to Section 5.07, a percentage
ownership interest in all investments made in accordance with that Investment Mandate at that time
proportional to the amount of investments made in accordance with that Investment Mandate by the Investor at
that time. Each Investor agrees that investments made in accordance with an Investment Mandate will be
valued as set out in the Investment Mandate Schedule. Subject to the payment of any reasonable fees imposed
by the Agent, an Investor has the right to require distribution of specific investments within its Investment
Account.
5.02 Investment guideline. The investment guideline of an Investment Mandate will be set out in the
Investment Mandate Schedule for that Investment Mandate. The policy may be subject to further restrictions
approved from time to time by the Agent. A copy of the investment guideline, as amended from time to time,
will be made available to the Investors. Any agreement with the Investment Counsel will permit Investment
Counsel to make investments based only on the investment guideline. None of the Agent, the Custodian, the
Payment Servicer, the Valuator or the Recordkeeper is responsible for investment decisions.
5.03 Fees and expenses. For each Investment Mandate, the Agent shall establish and disclose in the
Investment Mandate Schedule for that Investment Mandate, the maximum aggregate fees and expenses
payable, out of the investments made in accordance with that Investment Mandate, to the Custodian, the
Payment Servicer, the Valuator, the Recordkeeper, the Investment Counsel and the Agent. The Agent may
change the maximum aggregate fees and expenses stated in an Investment Mandate Schedule upon providing
such prior notice to all Investors as is set out in the Investment Mandate Schedule.
5.04 Amendments. The Agent may from time to time, upon providing 30 days prior written notice to all
Investors, amend the Agreement by adding schedules and amend, delete, supplement, restate, renew and
replace schedules to this Agreement.

investment, withdrawal and transfer instructions set out in the applicable Investment Mandate and in Schedule
C. Before an Investor provides investment instructions and arranges for any transfer from its account at its
financial institution to the Agent or the Custodian, the Investor shall ensure that sufficient funds are then
available to cover the amount of such investment.
5.06 Income on investments. Subject to Section 5.07, at any time each Investor has a percentage
ownership interest in the income on all investments made in accordance with an Investment Mandate
proportional to the Investor's percentage ownership interest in the aggregate investments made in accordance
with an Investment Mandate at that time. Income on investments will be automatically re-invested in
accordance with an Investment Mandate on the same basis as investments.

for the investment placed by the Investor through the Investment Program, or
(b) the Investor's financial institution is insolvent or for any other reason the Investor provides no
or insufficient funds to pay when due for the investment placed by the Investor through the
Investment Program,
then the Investor, with respect to that investment, has no interest in the Investment Program or in any
Investment Mandate or income relating thereto or proceeds thereof. The Investor agrees to indemnify the
Agent, the Custodian, the Valuator, the Payment Servicer, the Recordkeeper and the Investment Counsel, and
to hold the Agent, the Custodian, the Valuator, the Payment Servicer, the Recordkeeper and the Investment
Counsel harmless from all losses and expenses (including interest, charges and any loss in value of the
investment) incurred by the Agent, on its own account or on behalf of the Investor, the Custodian, the
Valuator, the Payment Servicer, the Recordkeeper or the Investment Counsel resulting from default or delay in
payment. The Agent may assign its rights under this indemnity to any person. In addition, the Investor agrees
to pay the Agent a fee in an amount set by the Agent from time to time as a fee payable in respect of any delay
or default in payment for an investment whether as a result of Section 5.07(a) or Section 5.07(b). The Agent
may authorize the debiting of the credit balance in an Investor's Investment Account and apply the amounts so
debited toward the payment of amounts (whether absolute, contingent, matured or not) payable by the Investor
