Dear Mayor Craig,
The Canadian Medical Association (CMA) is delighted to announce that in recognizing the
important role it can play in promoting a smoke-free environment for its citizens, the Township of
Oro-Medonte has met the criteria and is a recipient of the inaugural CMA Award for Excellence in
Health Promotion.
The CMA represents more than 55,000 physicians across the country and in February 2003, CMA
celebrated the first anniversary of its Office for Public Health. The mandate of the Office for Public
Health is to further the CMA's vision of a healthy population and on Wednesday August 20,2003
we will be launching our Award for Excellence in Health Promotion to recognize individuals and
corporations outside of the health sector, who have made a significant contribution towards a
healthy population. The first annual Award for Excellence in Health Promotion is being presented
to the Canadian Federation of Municipalities in recognition of those municipalities across Canada
who have passed bylaws banning smoking (100%) in all indoor public places by July 1,2003. The
award will be presented at our 136th Annual General Council taking place in Winnipeg, Manitoba.
Enclosed you will find a certificate acknowledging your community, a copy of the national media
release that will be issued, and a list of those municipalities across the country who have qualified
for this award for use in your community newsletters. We would be pleased, where possible, to
arrange to have a CMA representative attend a future council meeting in order to officially present
the certificate to you and your council. If you are interested in pursuing this option, please contact
Leanne Maidment at the CMA at (613) 731-8610 ext. 2304 or 1-800-663-7336 to make
arrangements.
With an estimated 45 000 deaths per year attributed to its use, tobacco is the number one cause of
preventable disease and death in Canada and we are delighted that the Township ofOro-Medonte is
playing a critical role in aiming to reduce these figures. Canada's physicians congratulate you on the
leadership you have shown in making your community a healthier place in which to live.
Encls.

Re: UCCI Adult Lifestyle Proposal:
Official Plan Amendment No. 18 Township Application 1# P115/01
Our File: DAV- 98160
In preparation for a deputation on Wednesday, October 1 ", a number of comments and
issues are raised in this letter in an attempt to advance the approval of the Official Plan
Amendment and to provide further background in relationship to the recent objection by
Dr. Golden.
Philosophically. Nick McDonald's revision to the draft for Official Plan Amendment No. 18,
is consistent with his presentation to Council members on August 18th. 2003. Although we
feel that the current policy framework of the Township's Official Plan provides an
appropriate planning foundation for Adult Lifestyle, the conversion to a Recreational
designation is acceptable to LlCCI given the intentJon to accord site specific recognition
of the LlCCI Adult Lifestyle Community.
However, there are a few changes which should be introduced and to which you have
already agreed:
· According to Policy D6.1. 1.4. the implementing Zoning By-law shall prohibit the
construction of two storey single and semi-detached dwellings. While this height
ceiling is appropriate for the single and semi-detached dwellings, Council
members will recall from the August 18'h meeting that there are two building
clusters in the central part of the site which will seNe as a retirement apartment
complex comprising 40 units altogether. Given the placement of these buildings. it
is fUlly expected that the building architecture may evolve to be 2 storeys high
above grade with a partial basement ftoor configured as a walkout. Accordingly,
the text of the draft amendment should be altered to reflect that provision.
· Secondly, Conditions of Approval. Policy D6.1.1 (F) states as follows: "The
development will not have a negative impact on the natural heritage features
and related ecological functions on the site and in the immediate area and will
not have 0 negative impact on the overall function of the Greenlands system
south of Ridge Road. ~
'"
This policy is expressed in very absolute terms and given a very strict interpretation
of same, any development would convey an impact no matier how insignificant
the building footprint might be. Even the construction of a small garage conveys
on impact on natural conditions and os such it would be impossible for any
development or developer to adhere to the letter of that policy. Instead. we
suggest that Paragraph (F) be rewritten to express compliance with standards and
specifications of the approval agencies including the County. the Township, the

Lake Simcoe Region Conservation Authority and the Ministry of Natural Resources.
This suggestion offers a more reasonable circumstance for compliance purposes
although as we have previously explained, compliance with environmental
standards will be sustained by this development.
. The Amendment also suggests that there be no further approvals until all
conditions have been sansfied by way of studies and on site investigations. In this
regard we suggest to you that it may be advantageous to the Township as well as
the proponents to go forward with a public meeting on the rezoning of the subject
lands. The Rezoning Application was submitted to the Township and authority
exists to take that recommendation to a pUblic meeting. The benefits of this
suggestion are two-fold: The proponents would of course benefit from a more
continuous approval process in relationship to matters involving pUblic input and
notification and certainly, should an appeai be made to the Township and
County OPA's, that hearing could be joined with the appeal to the Rezoning By-
law. Secondly, the public benefits by having another public meeting (a third
public meeting) convened in the Council chambers of the Township afford a
further opportunity to exchange - under the auspices of the Township's poJiticians-
all details in relationship to this development. The public, both for and against.
would benefit from this additional information exchange.
As explained last Tuesday, we have written to Dr. Golden in connection with his concerns
and this letter suggested a meeting so that all information could be explained and made
available for scrutiny and comment. Thus far. there has been no response to our letter
prepared by Mr. White which is attached.
As I further indicated last Tuesday, we have addressed the concerns noted in Dr. Golden's
letter and these investigations have been affirmed by the Township's planning consultant
and county planning officials.
We have "gone the distance" in ensuring the UCCI proposal Is a sustainable and livable
Adult Lifestyle Community which promotes the best interests of the Township of Oro-
Medonte. We also believe that Dr. Golden had the opportunity to express his opposition
at the March public meeting before the Township of Oro-Medonte Council and at the
April meeting before the County's Corporate Services Committee. Dr. Golden was also
aware of this development having been notified of same by Mr. Bryan Davidson in
January 2003 as 0 consequence of an appraisal report provided to him by Mr. Davidson
in connection with another matter.
If Dr. Golden and others seek to defer Council's approval of the revised OPPI, I believe the
strategy to be unfair and in opposition to a pianning process which has been marked by
openness and the comprehensive exchange of information.
We seek your final approval of this Official Plan Amendment. with revisions, this evening.

Dear Dr. and Mrs. Golden:
I represent Mr. Andy Ucci in connection with his proposed development on Lot
27, Concession 5, Township of Oro-Medonte. It has come to my clienfs attention that
you have concerns about his proposal and we would like the opportunity to meet with
you to review and hopefully address these concerns. Mr. Ucci has hired a number of
professional consultants to advise him on this development and these consultants and
their reports will be made available to you at your request. I would appreciate hearing
from you so that we may arrange a meeting at a time and place that meets with your
convenience.

approved."
Carried.
2.0 BUSINESS ARISING FROM THE MINUTES
No new business was discussed.
3.0 PROPERTIES & COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT
i) W. Dickie provided the Commission members with an update as to UKCAN II
Incorporated's development progress. It was reviewed that UKCAN II
Incorporated submitted a Site Plan Application dated July 18, 2003 concurrently
to the Township of Oro-Medonte Planning Department as well as to Lake Simcoe
Regional Airport staff for comment. W. McArthur and M. Drumm reviewed the
airport staff's responding comments as provided to UKCAN \I Incorporated. W.
Dickie further reviewed two outstanding items noted by the Township's staff
stemming from the Site Plan Application, namely car parking and on-site water
storage for fire suppression. W. Dickie reported that UKCAN II's site plan
application does not conform to the Township's zoning by-law parking
requirements and that the application, as submitted, understates the car-parking
requirements by 47% (24 car parking spots). W. Dickie further reviewed that
under the advice of the Fire Chief for the Township of Oro-Medonte, the addition \()b~J
of on-site water storage for fire suppression was required. W. Dickie suggested
that preliminary discussions on this recommendation might be realized by a
three-way cost sharing agreement between the Township, the airport and the
developer. The estimated costs associated with the required 20,OOO-gallon
storage facility totals $35,000.00. Direction was given to staff to advise the
Township Site Plan Committee, of the airport Commission's cooperation.
L. Leach reiterated that the Township's zoning by-law appears to overstate car-
parking requirements compared to other airports of comparable size to the Lake
Simcoe Regional Airport. G. Fernandes reviewed that pursuant to airport
Commission Motions 2003-AC-56, 2003-AC-57, 2003-AC-58 and 2003-AC-65,
staff is responsible to resolve the parking issue. Both the airport and Township's
comments are to be reviewed at a Township Site Plan Committee meeting, with
the principles of UKCAN II Incorporated on August 25, 2003.
W. Gardy noted that further on-site fire suppression capabilities will be a
requirement throughout the various phases of commercial development activities
at the airport and suggested that future capital budgets include provisions for
such requirements. As the Township of Oro-Medonte is the provider of fire and
emergency services at the Lake Simcoe Regional Airport, it was further
suggested that staffs work concurrently with the Township to review and
incorporate these requirements.
ii) Pursuant to the June 19, 2003 airport Commission meeting, G. Fernandes
requested that staff prepare a priority list of required Capital upgrades along with
the implications (brief) of each as they directly relate to the commercial hangar
developments, for review at the October 2003 Commission meeting. M. Drumm
and W. McArthur suggested that numerous capital upgrades with such
information had been prepared in the Capital Infrastructure Funding Request
submitted to the Federal government at the beginning of fiscal 2003. However,
further information would be available for review as requested.
iii) W. McArthur reviewed that the City of Barrie requested the total contribution for
the airport's 2004 Capital budget.
MOTION:
Moved by M. Ramsay, seconded by G. Fernandes.
2003-AC-74 "THAT, the 2004 Capital contribution be set at $100,000.00."
Carried.
4.0
FINANCIAL REPORT
i)
The June 2003 and YTD Financial Reports were reviewed.
MOTION:
Moved by S. Trotter, seconded by R. Hough.

M. Drumm indicated that as a result of the power outage, the July 2003 and YTD
financial reports were unavailable and would be presented at the September t()
Commission meeting. \ '0 - 3
ii) M. Drumm reviewed the Semi-annual report dated July 25, 2003 and as sent to
the three partnering municipalities, depicts that the airport is operating 22%
ahead of the planned year-to-date budget.
5.0 NEW BUSINESS/CORRESPONDENCE
i) W. McArthur reviewed the construction update as of August 11, 2003.
ii) The airport manager's report was received as information.

41-03-BOD regarding the status of the Authority's budget for the period ending June
30th, 2003. The Director advised that revenues are down at the Conservation Area due
to various set backs such as weather, West Nile Virus, etc.
The Board asked if the Authority expects to experience an increase in operating costs
due to the power outage experienced. The Director responded that a negative fallout
is not expected as the Authority remained fully operational. If anything, the Authority will
experience a reduction in their electrical costs due to operating at60% of norm~llevels.

obvious reasons to have an inspection done. Mr. West advised that such costs should
be the responsibility of the developer. Mr. West further suggested that staff consult with

developers. .

Lake Simcoe Region Conservation Authority
Boarct#/~ectors' Meeting
BOO-08-03 - Minutes
August 22nd, 2003
Mayor Tom Taylor asked if Authority staff comment on the Growth Management Plan.
The Director Environmental Services advised that staff do not comment at the initial
stage. The Province provides projected growth figures to the municipalities.
The CAO commented that Authority staff have recently completed the "State of the
Watershed" report and the next step is to complete the "Watershed Plan". The bottom
line is how does the Authority deal with development plans at the municipal and
regional levels? Development in the Lake Simcoe watershed is headed in the same
direction as the Oak Ridges Moraine. More vocal advocates are needed to apply
pressure to stop the growth. The Town of Georgina has a very. active group of
environmental advocates who will be putting pressure on the Authority to get the
Watershed Plan completed.
Deputy Mayor John West advised that municipalities C<;3n not expect the Conservation
Authorities to "pull the plug" on development growth. It is up to the individual
municipalities to fight this.
Mayor Margaret Black advised that the development planning process must have a
step that includes "sustainable community's".
Councillor Larry Corrigan inquired if the Authority has the science to support denying
developers to build around the Lake? The Director Environmental Services advised that
the tools and data are definitely available however unfortunately the Conservation
Authority does not make the final decision in the development phase. Inevitably when
development is denied, the application will go before the Ontario Municipal Board for
review.
Mayor Taylor asked if the Authority's Board of Directors could support the hiring of an
individual to expedite the completion of the Watershed Plan? The CAO responded that
at the present time the Authority is "cash strapped" and money is definitely the
issue.The Authority went out to the municipalities for the 2003 budget and staff still did
not get a step increase. Scientific expertise is out there but we do not have the staff to
do this in an efficient manner. Our current staff is over expended at this time. The
Environmental Services Division could certainly use extra staff.
The CAO advised that the Province is recognizing the importance of completing various
studies and are currently considering funding a position for an LSEMS Co-ordinator.
Deputy Mayor John West asked that a report addressing the associated costs to
increase staff be brought to this Board forapproval.

As some Members hadto leave this meeting early due to other commitments, the
CAO requested that the Board deal with the issue ofthe sewage spill, item 4 from
the "Tabled Items and Other Business Agenda",
4. Sewage Spill - August 14th, 2003
The Director, Environmental Services provided an overview on the sewage spill which
occurred on August 14, 2003. The presentation included maps which indicted the point
of the spill and the direction of the flow as well as photographs of the spill.
The Director advised that Authority staff were not contacted directly regarding this spill
and that staff read about it on Monday morning in the paper. This was very unfortunate
as staff could definitely have assisted by containing the spill and possibly reduced the
negative effects of the spill on Lake Simcoe.
Authority staff have and are continuing to perform monitoring and analysis. There was
a huge impact on the fish population resulting in thousands of dead fish in Fairy Lake
alone. The "fish kill" has been determined to be a direct result of the sewage spill.

Mayor Tom Taylor advised that the Town of Newmarket had staff removing the fish
from Fairy Lake over the weekend and confirmed that thousands of fish have been lost.
Mayor Taylor further advised that the Town has assigned a full time staff member to
deal with this situation. The fact that this spill happened indicates a lack of
sophistication which should be in place. There should be some type of containment in
order to deal with such spills.
The CAO presented a copy of a memo and documentation which was provided to the
Regional Municipality of York and advised that Authority staff will be working with the
Region to address how this disaster could have been better handled. The memo
contained three recommendations as follows:
1) That Authority staff work with our municipal partners to develop protocols to ensure
that the Lake Simcoe Region Conservation Authority will be contacted immediately
should a similar emergency occur in the future. In this regard Authority staff could
provide assistance to the municipalities in monitoring and potentially containing and
controlling future spills.
2) That Authority staff work closely with municipal staff and their agents to share
information collected throughout the course of this or other events. The
establishment of an interagency working group might be one solution to identify staff
contacts and ensure that all stakeholders are informed and involved.
3. The Authority in partnership with the Region of York develop.a rehabilitation plan
based on the assessment of the environmental impacts of the spill. This pro-active
approach would demonstrate the continuing commitment by York Region towards
the environment.
The CAO further presented a "draft" letter addressed to Premier Ernie Eves regarding
the lack.of available support from the Ministry of the Environment which was designated
a "non-essential" service and remained closed the week of August 18th as a result of
the power outage. The CAO requested permission from the Board to send this letter
under the Chair's signature. The Board concurred with this request asking that
Conservation Ontario be provided with a copy.
The CAO extended her compliments to Authority staff for their demonstrated hard work
and commitment put forth in response to this spill.
The Board suggested that Authority staff request a report from the watershed
municipalities on how they dealt with their sewage treatment plants during the power
outage.

Dear Mayor and Council:
October is Child Abuse and Neglect Prevention Month in Ontario. The Children's Aid
Society of the County of Simcoe is participating in the 11 th annual province-wide Purple
Ribbon Campaign. The campaign is symbolized by the wearing of a purple ribbon.
During the month of October we will be endeavouring to educate our communities on the
issues surrounding the abuse and neglect of children and the mandate of a Children's Aid
Society. To highlight our work purple ribbons and information will be widely distributed
throughout the County. We need our communities to be our partners in ensuring the well
being of all our children.
You can help us by having the month of October officially proclaimed as Child Abuse and
Neglect Prevention Month.
I will forward an information package and purple ribbons to your office in advance of October.
Please join us in our campaign.
If you have any questions, wish to order additional purple ribbons or arrange for someone to

RE: UCCI Proposal Township Application P115/01 OP Amendment No.18
Dear Mr. Hughes:
We are long time seasonal residents of Oro-Medonte. Since 1946 and through 3
generations our family has owned property in Oro-Medonte and specifically on
Lake Simcoe. We are presently the owners of the property at 249 Lakeshore
Road West.
We are writing to you to voice our opposition to the above proposal. We have
been actively following the above proposal and have recently become members
of the West Oro Ratepayers Association. Upon review of information made
available to date, we are extremely concerned with the potentially negative
impact this proposal will have on the water quality of Lake Simcoe and with the
potentially negative environmental impact that such a large development would
have on a space that is environmentally protected and designated as Greenland.
We should all be seriously concerned with any potential benefits a proposal such
as this might provide (other than to the applicant) when it requires such
significant amendment to the Official Plan of both the Township and the County
as well as to various Zoning By-Laws. We recognize that from time to time
Official Plans may need to be modified but certainly not to the extent that this
proposal requires. The real question here must be - How can one individual
developer expect to receive so much consideration not only from the Township
but also from the County? What can future developers demand with such a
precedent being set?
To develop an Adult Lifestyle Community in this area when there is no specific
proven demand for it and when in fact the Township has already moved to
update the language in its Official Plan preventing this sort of development in the
future begs the question - Why are we still entertaining this proposal? To simply
say that the application was filed prior to this update is in our mind the wrong
reason for its continued consideration.
We therefore ask that the Council of Oro-Medonte and the County of Simcoe not
approve this proposal.
Yours truly, Lauren and Domenic Natale

submitting a Planning report that will fully outline all the reason why the Official Plan should not

I would appreciate it if I could request that you make no decision on October 1, 2003 with
respect to the OP amendment other than formally receive the Planning report and allow the
Association time to submit our report and present arguments for it, before any further decisions
are made.
We are concerned about the density of the proposed project, and the ecological detriments to

Dear Sir:
A prime factor in choosing to build on Windfields Drive was the rural nature of the area.
The proposed development will significantly alter the character of the neighborhood. The
density proposed and the presence of a golf course have the potential to greatly increase
traffic on the surrounding roads, and adversely impact the water level in local wells, wild
life, and Lake Simcoe. Nothing we have read or heard alleviates our concerns and
therefore we oppose changes to the Official Plan
We understand that impact studies have been done by a number of consultants retained
by the developer. Weare aware that the West Oro Ratepayers Association is having a
planning report prepared which will provide additional infonnation on the impact of this
development. We request that no decision to the Official Plan amendment be made until
this planning report is received and arguments presented.
Yours truly,
Norma & Bob Fournier.

Dear Sirs:
Re: GARY and HARRIETT BOMZA

DCCI Proposal Township Application Pl15/01 OP Amendment No. 18
We wish to object to the DCCI Proposal to build a golf course and housing
units on the parcel ofland between the 4th and 5th Line South of the Ridge Road in Oro-
Medonte Township.
Some of our concerns are:
a) increased traffic;
b) pollution of ground water;
c) pollution of Kempenfelt Bay;
d) destruction of wetland that is home to many kinds of plants and animal life.
It is our understanding that there is an official plan in place
that does not allow this kind of development, and we ask that it not be changed.
Development, especially on this large scale, will be detrimental to the rural nature of our
neighbourhood.
As members of the West Oro Ratepayers Association, we urge Council not
to make any decision on the DCCI Proposal at the October 1, 2003 meeting until it has
heard the submissions from the West Oro Ratepayers Association's planner and legal
counsel, which will provide full details of our opposition.

My wife and I own a summer home at #5 Balsam Lane in Oro Township.This is located
at the bottom of Line 5 in Oro.
We learned last month through the West Oro Ratepayers Assoc of the plans to develop
the property between the 4th and 5th lines into a golf course plus a 350+ townhouse
development. We immediately joined the Association and I attempted to contact the
township but was unable to get through by phone. I subsequently sent an email followed
up by fax requesting information and a copy of the plan so that I could be properly
informed about the proposal. That was done on Sept 5th and to date I have received no
response.
I am distressed as a taxpayer that my request to obtain information on a project of this
magnitude located so close to my property has been ignored and quite concerned that my
voice and that of my neighbors will not be heard before it is too late to do something
about this project.
Unfortunately, I was unable to attend last Sunday's Association meeting due to a prior
family commitment. Today I received a message regarding the proposed next steps of the
process. I would like to go on record as being opposed to the project and respectfully
request that the meeting on October 1 st be limited to receipt of the planning report and
that our Ratepayers Association be given time to submit our report. I would be pleased to
discuss this further and can be reached at 416-860-3763 during the day and 416-968-0583
in the evenings.
Thanks you for your attention to my concerns.
Yours very truly
George Fowlie

Attention: Harry Hughes
Dear Sir:
Reference: DCCI Proposal Township Application
PUS/OI OP Amendment No. 18
Please be advised I am the owner of 105 Brambel Road. Unfortunately the above-captioned
proposal has proceeded to a significant extent without the writer having received prior
notifications. Possibly I am outside the geographical limits of the required notice.
However now that I have become fully aware of the matter thanks to the disclosure effected by
the West Oro Ratepayers Association I would ask for a reasonable opportunity to file my
objections to the said development.
I find it offensive that a development of this magnitude (in excess of 300 units), and its impact on
the area and environment could proceed without detailed consideration and review by the
Township including submissions from the local residents.
In particular I am advised that the West Oro Ratepayers Association is in the midst of having a
planning report prepared.
Accordingly the Official Plan should not be changed without full disclosure and consideration of
all of the consequences.
It therefore request that no vote occur at the meeting to be held on September 24, 2003 and no
vote or decision be made at the scheduled October I, 2003 meeting in order to provide a
reasonable and thorough review to occur including the submission and consideration of the
Planning Report being requisitioned by the West Oro Ratepayers Association.

Event. My property abuts Hardwood Hills to the North, and the event will be taking
Place in a very secluded area of the property with little or no effect to neighbors. I have

Catering and wedding events outdoors. Enclosed please find letter to my neighbours,
And would ask your permission for a noise bylaw exemption for the event, only as a

Your council put in such a bylaw.

My name is Amber-L:,i Neston. I have been a t yr ~ I, insulin dependant
diabetic for 28 years, ';m;e I was a child. Over the years, my diabetes has
caused me to have to ;;,k: over 20,000 injection~; ufinsulin to keep me alive.
Two years ago, my di; J( tes took a turn for the \Vorse. Despite taking five
injections a day, I was u: table to control my bloc,d sugars and quite often
ended up in the traum;: L nit of the Barrie hospital Jor dextrose injections,
I am an emergency roc n: nurse at R VH in Barrie and was finding it difficult
to do my job and contI) my diabetes, despite ev~ry effort.
There was a solution, 11 ,wever. New technology aJd research have provided
a device called an insu I i I. pump, which gives a cun stant infusion of insulin
into a person's system 1 ereby reducing peaks an j valleys in the insulin's
activity and thus deere, : ing blood sugar highs ard lows.
The Ontario Health PIc:.' does not cover the cost c,f said pump, so I have had
to cover the cost of the ( ump and the monthly supplies needed to keep it
running 24 hours a day fhe cost of the pump is an alarming $6000.00, and
the monthly cost to rur : t (with insulin and blood ksting supplies, tubing and
cartridges) is approx. $;'JO.OO. I cannot get cover,;:ge from my employers
because I have a pre-ex ,;ting condition, which is HI)t insurable.
Staying employed and ":~althy has been a challenfc, but having the insulin
pump has changed my fe. My diabetes is in the t: cst control it has been in
my entire life, and I an:o grateful for the chanye II) have my life back as I
once knew it.

APPENDIX "A"
DESIGN GUIDELINES FOR UTILITY STREET FURNITURE
As a follow-up to the Municipal Access Agreement, the following is to be a
guideline utilized for any street furniture that may be considered within any plans
of subdivision. This policy will be for new developments and will not be
considered for existing areas or where Equipment could be installed on existing
pole lines.
The intent of the Municipal Access Agreement is that all street furniture will be
placed underground and will be flush to grade. It is acknowledged that whether
the infrastructure be fibre optic or conventional wiring that there may be
instances where there will be no choice but to have some aboveground facility. It
is recommended that the following guidelines be utilized in the decision making
process and all decisions are to be approved by the Director of Engineering and
Environmental Services.
1 . All efforts are to be made to install all plant underground.
2. Where every effort has been exhausted and there is no choice
but to place a facility aboveground, the following criteria are to
be used:
(a) The plant shall be located within the base of a hydro pole, if such can
be designed, and be able to accommodate the plant.
(b) If the plant cannot be accommodated within a hydro pole, then an
alternative structure shall be selected and can be in the form of a
natural or artificial landscape item such as a rock or entry feature
which would compliment the environment immediately surrounding its
placement.
The natural landscape item containing the plant must be kept to a minimum in
size and it is suggested that the dimensions not exceed .5 metres in any
direction. If a landscape element such as an entry feature is to be used, it must
match the theme in the host neighbourhood. The structure shall be designed so
as to prohibit entrance by unauthorized individuals. It must be designed so that
maintenance personnel can gain access and complete maintenance work and
the facility reinstated to its original appearance. Disturbance to the immediate
area will be minimal to none. The colour of the structure shall be compatible with
the existing area and shall be aesthetically pleasing. The number and frequency
of any aboveground installation must be minimal and the overall plan for
development depicting the locations must be approved by the Director of
Engineering and Environmental Services.
.
18
~~~ -'Jd-
The structure shall be kept away from driveway locations and shall, if at all
possible, be situated adjacent to other structures necessary for the functioning of
the development. The structure will be designed and built with safety and
durability as critical design elements.

give written notice thereof to the Indemnifying Party and, in any event,
within ten (10) days of the date when the Indemnified Party became
aware of the Third Party Claim.

such event, the Indemnifying Party shall reimburse the Indemnified
Party for all the Indemnified Party's out-of-pocket expenses incurred in
defence of the Third Party Claim for which the Indemnifying Party has

Party, are reasonably necessary to enable the Indemnifying Party to
conduct such defence.
(iv) If the named parties to any action or proceeding include both the
Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party and representation of
both the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party by the same
counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing

costs relating to such separate counsel.
