Tne conservation area will be operated as a passive recreational day-use facility. . Petun Conservation Area Through the Natural Areas Protection Program the NVCA has been approved funding to acquire a $-acre parcel land at the Petun Conservation Area. This small acreage is key, to allow access to the back of the conservation area. The NVCA manages a total of 103 acres on this significant escarpment property. iii) Planning and Technical Services - Charles Burgess, Director of Planning (ext. 229) cburaesslii!nvca.on.ca . . Angus Flood Remediation Study In partnership with Essa Township, the NVCA is undertaking a Flood Remediation Study for Angus. The purpose of the study is to develop a "Flood Remediation Plan" which identifies appropriate methods of "reducing" cUlTent 100- year and Regional Storm flood lines in Angus and to identify appropriate flood protection measures for properties where reduction in flood levels is not feasible. The results of the study win lead to identification of ffooding causes within local sections of the Nottawasaga River and Pine River. The study will also provide recommendations about any remedial works. which win give relief to existing flood levels and therefore reduce the number of buildings currently within the 100 year and Regional Storm flood lines. . Province Grants $915,875.00 for Simcoe County Groundwater Study Elizabeth Witmer. Ontario Environment Minister announced at the 8'" AD Latomell Conservation Symposium on November 14'" that the province has earmarked $10 million in funding for groundwater studies. This funding is part of 'Operation Clean Water" which is a comprehensive strategy to focus efforts to improve water quality and water r delivery in ontario. The groundlNater study will have 2 components. The first component involves mapping and providing recommendations for protection of municipal well capture zones, which are the areas from which wens draw their water. The second part will focus on characterizing underground water bearing formations. We will be investigating how sensitive aquifer areas are to contamination and generating maps showing where precipitation infiltrates the ground to recharge groundwater reserves as well as areas where water flOWS out onto the surface to provide flow in our streams. Recommendations will arise from these activities regarding protection of sensitive aquifer areas. Terms of Reference will be developed. Certain components of the study will be undertaken in-house, however, most study deftverables will be conbocted out through a tender process. A Call for a Provincial Water ManagementSnategy Willow Creek Subwatershed Study .

Credit Valley Conservation (CVC) has completed 5 years of scientific researching containing the state of surface and groundw<!ter in the Credit w<!tershed and asking the province to consult with municipal, conservation authority and other water management experts to agree on the components of a Provincial Water Management Strategy. The need for devetopment of a Provincial Water Policy involving the public, conservation authorities and municipalities has been repeatedly identified at the WakertOl1lnquiry, Smart Growth and Oak Ridges Moraine consultations. The Strategy would set out the context for a comprehensive Provincial.Water Policy and Programs. Water quality and quantity management may be the most important issue we address as without sufficient and safe w<!ler there in no health, education, quality of life or economic growth. . Conservation Authorities Continue to Battle Low Water Conditions Across Ontario Despite recent rains, Conservation Authorities in Ontario strongly encourage residents and businesses to continue to conserve water. The present low water conditions, coupled with similar droughts over the past three years, could continue to heve an impact next summer across the province's watershed depending on the type of winter Ontario experiences. Sno\\lfall conditions this winter will be very important in determining whether the drought conditions continues in 2002. With 3 of the last 4 years experiencing below average rainfall, it will take more than 1 year of above average precipitation to bring water levels, and especially groundwater back to where they were before the pre"drought $latus. The NVCA along with other authorities across the province playa very important role in assessing low water conditions, We provide water supply information and then interpret it along with other water manager partners. The NVCA is designated as the lead agency and are responsible for pulling together local Water Response Teams (WRTs) across the watershed. When declaring low water conditions, the Water Response Teams rely primarily on predpitation and stream flow figures collected on a regular basis throughout the watershed. The next WRT meeting is set for December 12, 2001. .

Director of Beyond the HoriZon Outdoor Adventures hes submitted a proposal to deliver environmental education programs through the Tiffin Centre for Conservation. Bonwick Leads Great Lakes Initiative Paul Bonwick, MP Simcoe-Grey, expressed his unequiv=1 support during National Liberal Caucus on November 21 for the Conservation Ontario's proposals, the Fish Habitat Restoration Endowment Fund and the Healthy Great Lakes Program. Bonwick stated that both programs would have enormous benefitS to not only the riding of Simcoe Grey but also all ridings that rely on upon the Great Lakes. 'Water is our greatest resource. It is imperative that this resource be protected: said Bonwick. 'Conservation Ontario, which is the umbrella organization for conservation authorities in the province have over 50 years experience in helping to preserve and protect this resource. Authorities like the Nottawasaga Valley Conservation Authority and Lake Simcoe Region Conservation Authority, in my riding, have been su=sfully delivertng the programs necessary to keep our natural resources healthy. These two programs are a natural and necessary extension for Conservation ontario,' said Bonwick. Mr. Bonwick further stated 'so much of our liveUhood in Southern and Central Ontario relies upon the health of the Great Lakes. My rtding is a prime example. It's located on the south tip of Georgian Bay. It is our primary water source - its bibutaries are important to our agriculture, recreation and tourism. Canada's Environment Commissioner has addressed the need for a bigger federal government rule in protecting our Great Lakes. This request for funding from Conservation Ontario is the prime opportunity for our government to meet that need: local Girl Wins Regional Conservation Award Hillary $pel<. of Midhurst Is this year's recipient of the Nottawasaga Valley Conservation Foundation's Evelyn A Smith--Cynthia Luhowy Conservation Award.

Susan Cook-Kennedy (past Vice-Chanperson) and Mary Anne Wilson (past Chanperson) - the last two years have not been easy ones for you given the changes and challenges of that time. A time during which the Board has continued 10 grow and develop in the face of these huge changes and challenges. We thank you for your time and dedication on behalf of children in this county. What is the Simcoe County District School Board and what are the responsibilities ofthis Board of Trustees? Weare a dislrict with 90 elementalY and 16 secondary schools, we have an operating budget of$3l2 million plus a capital budget of $30 million, we organize and supervise the transportation of25,000 students every day, we employ nearly 6,000 fu11-time and part-time staff members, and our teachers supervise, assist, act as parents i/1 absentia and stimulate the 1eaming of 55,000 students a day. Our job as tmstees is to set goals and establish policies that make a11 of the above work. I have been associated off and on with this Board since 1962 and I believe it has been - and continues to be - a Board that strives to have schools that parents and children can be proud to say are their schools. Today we are facmg not only traditional cha11enges but the new ones of rapid growth, last-minute regulation changes by the government, external decisions regarding where money is spent and possibly we will face the reality of the rumours of zero increases or reductions of five per cent or more in funds to do the things previously described. This will place ns in the position of having to make decisions we would rather not have to make. Decisions that if we make the wrong ones will seriously impact learning in our classrooms. To some degree, .it .is not nnfair to say the government has set us up for failure. Since I reject such failure, the issues become how do we avoid failure and ensure that this Board continues to enhance learning? How do we make snre we move beyond where we are at present, despite the chaHenges facing us? In my opinion we the elected trustees and administration - have to think differently, we wilJ have to take risks, we have to create an environnlent that . encouragesothers-te-taktHisks,~e have_to_clearLyAefine to our administration what it is we expect, then stand aside and let our entire administration meet these expectations. needed before, to be snpportive of each other by listening to each other, not for the pwpose of strengthening our defense of an idea but rather to leam and understand the perspective of others. When and where there is a ~ew idea, a potential saving, a potential improvement to the learning environment, we must listen, discuss and then be prepared to try something new. TIlere will be risks. If, however, there is the potential for learning, surely such risks are worthwhile. 1 want to spend a few moments on dreams. I have dreams or visions of what this Board could be like and what education shonld be abont. Everyone at this table should have such dreams. I believe we need to share Ollr visions and if1 by chance, we all share the sanle vision uothing shonld be allowed to stand in the way of achieving that vision. This is a process we all need to be passionately involved in. I want you to fight hard for your educational vision. Dante wrote: "the hottest places m hell are reserved for those, who in times of great moral crisis, maintain their neutrality." Our discussion cannot be successful withont the full emotional participation of everyone at tllis table. 1 am proposing the evening of January 30, 2002 for our first vision session. To start Ihis process 1 will share a vision of mine. We have made great strides with a variety of programs to enhance the reading skills of our children. I want us to go further. 1 dream of a society in which all children have learned to read, a society where they have have learned to read as much as a full year in advance of our present target for reading. I dream of tile society that would be the product of such success; children not afraid to come to school because of inadequate reading skills, fewer special education situations, students maintaining their thirst for knowledge beyond primary grades. I believe if we conld make a major step in tllis direction funding would no longer be an issne because no ' government would dal'e deny funds to a society tllat respected and valued education. 1 also believe that if we believe in something, if we are nnited in wanting it to happen, it can happen. Ladies and gentlemen of the Board, I believe we exist to promote and enhance learning. I want us to step away from this table next December and be able to say we made a difference. I did not seek this position, you chose me w "be your Chair, therefordtisnotunreasonable to expect your full support. Thank you. . We also need to think differently.

P. 13, as amended. PURPOSE & EFFECT . On January 1st, 1994, The Corporation of the Township of Springwater was incorporated under the provisions of the county of Simcoe Act, 1993. This new municipality consisted of all of the Village of Elmvale, most 0 the Townships of Vespra and Flos, and portions of the Town of Wasaga Beach and the Township of Medonte. Each of these municipalities had their own Official Plan and Zoning By-law. The Official Plans for the respective municipalities, in so far as they applied to the lands within Springwater Township, were subsequently reviewed;repealed and replaced with the Springwater Official Plan approved in 1998. The mechanism to implement the policies of the Official Plan is a Zoning By-law. Springwater Council, after considerable review and discussion, is proposing to repeal the existing Zoning By- laws, as amended for the fonner municipalities in so far as they apply to the lands within Springwater Township. These repealed By-laws would then be replaced with a new Comprehensive Zoning By-law that implements the policies of Springwater's Official Plan. The purpose of this By-law is to prohibit and regulate the use of land, buildings and structures and place certain requirements on the owners or occupants of buildings or structures within the corporate limits of the Township of Springwater. ANY PERSON is invited to attend the Township of Springwater Municipal Office at the address noted below, during regular office hours - Monday to Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., to inspect the proposed Zoning By-law. Altematively, you are invited to view a copy of the draft by-law at the three branches of the Springwater Township Libraries or on the Township Website. Any person may attend the public meeting and/or make written and/orverbal representation either in support of or In opposition to the proposed Zoning By-law. Written submissions are to be made to the Township of Springwater Planning Department, Attention: Todd A. Stocks, Planner, at the address noted below. IF A PERSON OR PUBLIC BODY files an appeal of a decision of The Corporation of the Township of Springwater in respect of the proposed Zoning By-law does not make oral submissions at a public meeting or make written submissions to The Corporation of the Township of Springwater before the proposed Zoning By-law is adopted, the Ontario Municipal Board may dismiss all or part of the appeal. A KEY MAP or description has not been provided because the proposed Zoning By-law applies to all lands lying within the corporate limits of the Township of Springwate~.,: DATED at the Township of Springwater this 21st day of December, 2~:;~\' i~,' 'I"" 1- ,--~ j:......-:.-; ~O,,-! ;,-::,::.:.::: k~::. \,o::'~ \-..->, <:C;"':;, /c';;>.. e;/?";,'o--....... .:'_, ~lJ / _ '>"' ..~-:-:~;\\:\. <,' );Vj:~.;!

Clause NO.6 . Recommendations: It is recommended that: (1) a Clean Streets Working Group be created that will intlude\:ity and private-sector representation and whose mandate wiJl be to identify solutions to address litter in the City of Toronto; (2) a member of the Works Committee be appointed to chair this Working Group under the umbrella of Waste Diversion Task Force 2010; (3) the Chair of the Working Group in consultation with staff prepare a list of potential private sector representatives to be appointed to the Working Group; the Co-Chairs of Task Force 2010 write to the identified companies and/or Trade Associations inviting their participation; (4) the activities ofT.a. Toss be incorporated into the mandate of the Clean Streets Working Group; (5) the Working Group develop a protocol for measuring litter and conduct audits to identify the baseline quantity and composition oflitter in the City; and (6) using baseline data, the Working Group develop principles of the roles and responsibilities of the City, the private sector and citizens with regards to the prevention and management oflitter and public space waste and recycling receptacles. Background: The move to policies, programs and business practices that promote sustainable development has led to a re-examination of primary manufacturers' roles and responsibilities for the design, manufacture and marketing of products. This re-examination has most recently led to a review of the responsibility for a product after consumer use, often captured under the term shared responsibility. The recent announcement by the Ontario Ministry of the Environment to establish Waste Diversion Ontario (WDO), which will require the brand owners of products to share the financial responsibility for the Blue and Grey Box system with municipalities, is an example of this. The Waste Diversion Task Force 2010 report reflected this thinking through its policy development in the area oflitter. '~ecoIJ.Unendation No. 40 of the Task Force states: "That the City perfo~ resource audits on litter collected, and pursue main offenders, particularly the fast-food industry, to provide support for a clean city, including the adoption of litter bins throughout the City". T cranIa City Councii December 4,5 and 6, 2001 3 0/r7 r Works Committee Report No. 17, Clause No.6 This report addresses the Task Force's direction. Comments: Maintaining the streets and sidewalks of Toronto in a clean condition is an important matter for the City ITom the perspective of health, environmental impact, and the image the City projects to its own citizens and visitors conducting business in the City or arriving as tourists. In April 2001, the Solid Waste Management Division took over the responsibility for litter collection ITom the Transportation Division in order to link all waste management issues within one division. Subsequently, a staff initiated litter audit was conducted in early May of 2001. The objective of this audit was to identify the main materials contributing to litter. The audit covered the area east of University Avenue, south of Bloor Street and west of Victoria Park. The results of the audit revealed that there was a significant number of recyclables contained in roadside litter. Four major material categories were identified in the audit and they are as follows: newspapers; beverage containers; confectionery packaging; and quick service packaging items (including coffee and fast food services) . Of the 125 kgs of material sorted, over 90 percent consisted of the above four major material categories. Solid Waste Management staff have initiated informal contact with the private sector with the goal of including private sector participants whose businesses may contribute to the generation of the four main material types of litter observed. Several of these organizations have expressed interest in participating as part of a joint Working Group to address clean streets. Conclusions: The prelimina.] litter audit conducted in M2.Y 2001 i!ldicates that there are four major groups in the composition oflitter in the City of Toronto: newspapers; beverage containers; confectionery packaging; and quick service items. The creation of a Working Group, chaired by a member of the Works Committee, with the active participation of the private sector is a recommended starting point to develop solutions to litter on our City streets. The Working Group should further quantify the scope of the litter issue and will examine the roles and responsibilities of the City and the private sector and citizens.

As stated at the graduation ceremonies by many of the speakers, the fact that 56 Orillia and District businesses received a total of$56,663.93 is a tribute to the collective efforts of everyone to workplace safety and the unique partnerships in our community to run this program. Well done! As you may know, the Safe Community Incentive Program (SCIP) rebate program is only available in communities that bave a formal Safe Community Committee. As you may recall, the SCIP registration form noted that participants agreed to contribute 10% of their WSIB rebate to the ODSCC. This funding gives a tremendous boost to our organization, allowing us to carry on other safety programs, and offer SCIP 2002 to the community. Last year, we received a total of$6,800 :!Tom our SCIP participating companies and we are hopeful that this will be matched this year by businesses that appreciate the value of the work we are doing in sponsoring and organizing the SCIP program and other workplace safety programs. We are not privy to the rebate amount given to individual businesses and therefore cannot issue you a specific invoice. However, if you could make a cheque payable to the ODSCC, we will issue you a business receipt for training fees for participation in the SCIP program. In case you didn't register the day of the graduation, we also invite you to participate in the next SCIP program, which begins February 6, 2002. A registration form is attached. We look forward to your continued involvement and support as we work towards making Orillia and District the safest community to Jive, work and play.

About a year ago, I was approached on my opinion about joining with Orillia to help them get their much needed designation as well. In principle, I agreed whole heartedly. My reservation was that all potential leads on all interested doctors might not be shared with us in Oro-Medonte. We felt that each doctor should have the choice of either Orillia or Oro-Medonte, if we indeed joined forces. They should not have this choice made for them by Orillia. This was addressed and wisely noted by Mayor Beard and Jennifer Zieleniewski. I agreed to give up Oro-Medonte's designation. Unfortunately, Orillia has not kept up their end of the bargain! I have not had one communication from Dr. Mueller from Soldier's Memorial Hospital. I believe he truly feels "no doctor wants to work in the country - they want to be close to the hospital" - this was a comment made by him at the meeting to have the underserviced designation transferred to his hospital. I believe he communicates this Vtry weil to prospective medical doctors. Since that arrangement, one year ago, I have been working with the Barrie Underserviced Task Force run by Dr. Bolton and Mr. Richard Kelly out of Royal Victoria Hospital. Barrie should also shortly be designated underserviced. The Barrie area, was able to use Oro-Medonte's under- serviced designation to send a team of physicians to the recruitment tour this year, under Oro- Medonte's umbrella. The feel they have generated a lot of interest and have several names to follow up with. They have proceeded and addressed the problem of staffing for a full time person (later team) to help bring doctors and other medical personnel to this area. They have approached all of the townships with a budget, shared based on population, of $200,000 a year to star!. They recognize the need to spend time and money on recruitment. They also recognize that the need will get a lot worse before it gets better. ,r'-' r' _ '1._ -,,~ (T- r~ Would you please consider reimbursing some of my costs, that I personally paid, and were lost as a personal benefit to me if the building could have been developed into a health centre, when the Orillia group took over the underserviced designation from Oro-Medonte township. We looked very good, having addressed the problem, and dealt with it long before others. Yours truly, ":? '-" DR.

MOTION #: DATE: DATE: January 3, 2002 I BACKGROUND: . t The municipalities within the Lake Simcoe Region Conservation Authority and Nottawasaga Valley Conservation Authority have established a partnership to conduct a Wellhead Protection Study within their watersheds, consisting of eleven (11) municipalities. I SUMMARY' . .. ..... .... ii:1'!;;;')i';5M;ili;'il'[:;,'y)fJ,i,j'};'S,;i,";'i;"'< :,';",L:;:,:2ii;L'jft,.%'iNi:l '<'l':"c"/:;.0i:1N\I" i The Conservation Authorities, on behalf of the Simcoe County Groundwater Partnership, have received funding in the amount of $915,875.00 from Ministry of the Environment grants. The total estimated cost of the project is $1,077 ,500.00; the balance of $161 ,625.00 is the municipalities' share. The "Funding Model" (attached for Council's perusal) has been divided into two (2) categories; 1. Municipal Wellhead Share; and 2. Other Share (Current Value Assessment (CVA)). The share of the Township of Oro-Medonte for the Wellhead Protection Study is as follows: .:. $9,150.00 (nine municipal well fields, which includes the airport); .:. $1,512.50 (CVA), which has been based on 1999 assessment for 25% of Oro-Medonte's land area. Therefore, the Township's share would be $10,662.50 for the Wellhead Protection Study within the Lake Simcoe and Nottawasaga Valley Conservation Authorities' watersheds.

Extent of Study Area There was a considerable amount of discussion on the limits of the study area for this project. There were also some concerns about the study area being arbitrary and potentially affecting the rights of property owners. It was agreed that we would, as a first step, identify a 500 metres (adjacent lands buffer) from the edge of the Oro Moraine boundary as shown on the Official Plan schedule. The second step would then be to translate this buffer area into a line which follows property boundaries and/or lot and concession boundaries wherever possible. The result will be a line identifying the limits of the actual Oro Moraine and a line identifying the limits of the planning area for the purposes of this project. Revised mapping showing the limits of the planning area will be prepared for the next meeting of the Working Group. Work Program I reviewed the work program with members of the working group at the meeting. The work program is still considered to be draft, pending the submission of comments from working group members. Revision to the work program and a suggested time frame will be prepared in advance of the November 13, 2001 working group meeting for discussion purposes. Oak Ridges Moraine Experience There was some discussion on the process being followed with the Oak Ridges Moraine. June Little handed out copies of a recent Oak Ridges Moraine document and requested that members review the document to determine how applicable some of the ideas are to the Oro Moraine. The three policy areas that were the focus of the Oak Ridges Moraine exercise were natural heritage, water resources and land form protection. Working group members should be prepared to discuss the Oak Ridges Moraine experience at the next working group meeting.

It was requesled that all working group members become familiar with the local planning document as well as the policies of the Provincial Policy Statement and the County of Simcoe Official Plan. Working group members should endeavour to obtain copies of these documents so that they can be discussed at the next meeting. The entire Oro-Medonte Official Plan is available of the Township's web site. The text of the County of Simcoe Official Plan is avaiiabie on the County of Simcoe web site. Schedules to the County of Simcoe Official Plan can be obtained by contacting the County of Simcoe planning department. Craighurst Nick reviewed the status of the Craighurst project and indicated that much of the technical work supporting the development of a community on full services has been completed. There was a considerable amount of discussion about the timing of the possible consideration of the Craighurst Secondary Plan as it related to the timing of the completion of the Oro Moraine Land Use exercise. It was agreed that Nick would go back to Oro-Medonte Council in November to discuss options and obtain direction.

At the outset of the meeting, Nick McDonald briefly reviewed the work program leading to the development of the Oro Moraine Strategy and Official Plan Amendment dated October 25, 2001. The Work Program identifies what tasks will be completed and when. 2. A key component of the work program is the preparation of a state of Ihe Oro Moraine report. It was originally intended that this report be prepared by January 18, 2002. This timing may change, as a result of the need to have further discussions on the boundary of the Oro Moraine Planning Area. 3. It was agreed that the state of the Oro Moraine report would contain information on: . What the Moraine is; . The location and sensitivity of all environmental features on the Moraine; . Up to date mapping showing environmental features, linkages and land use; and, . A description of how the boundaries of the Moraine were defined. The last point was added as a result of discussions at the working group meeting. 4. With respect to the boundary, a considerable amount of discussion was held on how to delineate the boundary. At the present time, the boundary is shown on the maps as depicted on the Oro-Medonte Official Plan schedule. The source of the initial boundary on the Official Plan schedule is currently being investigated. With the initial boundary in mind, a 500 melre adjacent land area parallel to the limits of the Oro Moraine is now shown on the map. On the basis of property boundary information, the study area was further refined to ensure that almost any property through which the boundary extended was included within the study area. Page 1 113 Collier Street, Barrie, Ontario L4M 1 H2 Phone: (705) 737-4512 Fax: (705) 737-5078 . . ?b ~J- 5. Much of the discussion on boundaries was related to the rationale for delineating a boundary in the first place. It was agreed that if the environmental features and functions of an area were used to determine a boundary, then the current proposed boundary would not be appropriate. However, if the boundary of the landform itself was identified as the basis for the creation of a planning area, more work may be required to ensure that the boundary is accurately identified on the ground. 6. Kathy Woeller of the Ministry of Natural Resources indicated that she would undertake to obtain any information on the criteria used to develop and establish the Oak Ridges Moraine boundary. While it was generally agreed that the Oak Ridges Moraine boundary was politically motivated, there may be some criteria that could be considered as part of Ihis process. Fred Johnson of the Ministry of Natural Resources was identified as the source of this information. Nick asked Kathy whether Fred Johnson would be available to meet to discuss this particular issue at a future meeting. Kathy promised to get back to me on this issue. 7. There was also a considerable amount of discussion on what impact Ihe boundary may have on land use. Nick McDonald stated that the intent of the process was to update the environmental policies in the Township Official Plan, with a particular emphasis on the Ora Moraine. 8. Nick also explained that the actual boundary of the Oro Moraine study area may not have an impact on land use permissions at the end of the process, depending on the pOlicies that are approved. For example, if a Countryside type of designation is considered on the Moraine, it is conceivable that the permitted uses, standards and policies in the Countryside designation will essentially be the same as the policies of the Agricultural or Rural designation which may be located on the other side of the study area boundary. 9. Nick also noted that the policies of the Oro-Medonte Official Plan were already fairly restrictive with respect to the permitted uses in the Agricultural and Rural designations. One exception however is golf courses, which are permitted in the Rural designation at the present time subject to a number of criteria being fulfilled. 10. Nick also indicated that the land use designations contemplated for the Oak Ridges Moraine area would be reviewed in the context of the Oro Moraine. This means that core areas and corridor areas will be identified as part of this process with particular reference to the Oro Moraine itself. Some of these corridors may actually extend beyond limits of the Moraine as currently defined. 11. There was also some discussion on the growth and settlement analysis to be prepared. Nick explained that the intent of the Township is to prepare new population, household and employment projections for the municipality and compare those projections with the existing supply of lands for these uses in the municipality. This information will assist in determining whether there is a need to identify or site additional lands for these types of uses particularly on the Ora Moraine. Page 2 113 Collier Street, Barrie, Ontario L4M 1 H2 Phone: (705) 737-4512 Fax: (705) 737-5078 . . gb-3 12. With respect to the suitability of existing land use designations, Nick indicated that as part of the land use review, the location and amount of designated land available for development on the Oro Moraine would be reviewed. 13. June Little of the County of Simcoe indicated that they have money in the budget to retain Hemson Consulting to update the County's populations projections when new Statistics Canada information is made available to the County. It is estimated that this new information will be made available in February 2002. Nick indicated that any work on population projections in Oro-Medonte would be carried out initially to give us a first look on what is expected and that this work will be checked against the new Statistics Canada information when it becomes available. 14. The County of Simcoe indicated through June Little that it may be considering the preparation of Moraine policies for the County of Simcoe Official Plan. In order to provide assistance in this regard, the County may retain a hydrogeologist. Subsequent to the meeting, Ms. Little has indicated that a hydrogeologist from the Lake Simcoe Region Conservation Authority may be available to assist with any discussions on the delineation of the Oro Moraine boundary and the identification of any significant features on the Oro Moraine. June Little is to determine whether this hydrogeologist would be available for the June 8, 2002 meeting. 15. Some concerns were expressed about the carrying out of the Oro Moraine Land Use Strategy and the Mineral Aggregate Resource Management Plan processes at the same time. Given that much of the mineral aggregate resources are located on the Oro Moraine, it is clear that many people will be interested in both processes and how they relate to each other. On this basis, it was suggested that open houses for the Land Use Strategy Project and the Aggregate Resource Management Plan project be held at the same time to ensure that all information is available and considered in tandem. However, it was agreed that the first open house on each project could perhaps be separate, given that information specific to each project will be made available initially. Future open houses, at which policies are potentially being considered should be held at the same time. 16. The next meeting is scheduled for January 8, 2002. The purpose of this meeting will be to discuss: i. The basis for the boundary of the Oro Moraine planning area; ii. The criteria to be considered in identifying core areas on the Oro Moraine; iii. The criteria to be considered in identifying corridor areas; iv. The relevancy and appropriateness of current Official Plan policies; and, v. The relationship between the County of Simcoe Official Plan and the Township of Oro-Medonte Official Plan.

The clarification has to do with Point #12, which states thai "with respect to the suitability of existing land use designations, Nick indicated that as part of the land use review, the location and amount of designated land available for development on the Oro Moraine would be reviewed. .. The intent of this review is to identify and quantify the amount and location of potential development on the Oro Moraine in accordance with the Official Plan policies in place. This is required to provide some context for the discussions and to determine how much additional development can occur. I also stated that the three settlement areas (Craighurst, Horseshoe Resort, Sugarbush) on the moraine would remain as settlement areas. These settlements are also identified as settlements by the County of Simcoe Official Plan. However, I did mention that Ihe Buffalo Springs development node (which is not considered to be a settlement in accordance with either the Township or County Official Plans) would be reviewed to determine if the designation continues to be appropriate. The Buffalo Springs lands have been approved for development since 1994. The addition has to do with Springwater. There was some discussion at the meeting on the merits of including the Springwater portion of the Oro Moraine in the study area. The moraine, based on current boundaries, extends an additional 2.5 kilo metres into Springwater at its widest point. Much of this land is vacant and the site of County forests. I indicated at the meeting that I would review the issue and discuss it further with Todd Slocks. I believe that there is merit in at least ensuring that the mapping of the Oro Moraine we use for discussion purposes extends into Springwater. If the Springwater portion was included, the Township of Springwater would benefit from the process in that they would obtain updated Page 1 113 Collier Street, Barrie, Ontario L4M 1 H2 Phone: (705) 737-4512 Fax: (705) 737.5078 . . fb/~ information on the features and functions associated with the Moraine. I do not anticipate making specific land use recommendations on the Springwater portion of the Oro Moraine - that would be up to T odd Stocks and Springwater Council. Whiie adding the Springwater portion to the mapping can be done, it will take time, since two base maps have to be merged. As a result, there are some additional costs. Todd will be speaking to his Council on November 26 to discuss the issue with them further. Please call or e-maii me with questions or comments. Nick McDonald, RPP Partner Page 2 113 Coltier Street, Barrie, Ontario L4M 1 H2 Phone: (705) 737-4512 Fax: (705) 737-5078 'De -- ( r1t11.~JAH v Page 1 of 4 From: Aggregate Resource Management Plan Working Group Members Nick McDonald To: Date: November 21, 2001 Subject: Summary of November 13, 2001 Meeting Job Number: 2039 Below is a summary of the issues discussed at the above meeting and the actions that are proposed to be taken: 1. The first item discussed was a work program leading to the preparation of an Aggregate Resource Management Plan and Official Plan policy dated October 25, 2001. Nick McDonald reviewed each of the tasks in the Work Program and the timelines involved. Nick indicated that surveys to all pit owners requesting certain information had already been sent out and that an assessment of these results would be completed within a few weeks. 2. The product of the first component of the work program will be a report on the state of the resource in the Township of Oro-Medonte. It is intended that this report will contain information on: . The location of all existing pits and their operations; . The location of all existing haul routes and their suitability; . The extent and location of all marketable reserves in the Township; and, . The location of the existing and future markets for sand and gravel extracted in Oro- Medonte. In addition the report would include information on the environmental features that are collected as part of the Oro Moraine Land Use exercise as well. Lastly, the report would contain some discussion on the economic impact of aggregate extraction in the municipality. 3. It was agreed that one of the intents of the work program is to educate both members of the Working Group and the public at large on aggregate extraction. At the present time, there are many misconceptions about the nature of extraction activities and the ability of the municipality to control/regulate the activity. On this basis, Jackie Fraser of the APAO indicated that she would be pleased to organize a tour for the public of the existing pit Page 1 113 Collier Street, Barrie, Ontario L4M 1 H2 Phone: (705) 737-4512 Fax: (705) 737-5078 y(!/r operations in the Township of Oro-Medonte. Given the approach of winter, it was suggested that such a tour could be organized in the Spring of 2002. Nick McDonald asked if such a tour could be organized for working group members, at least initially to learn about the pit operations and their impacts. Jackie Fraser promised to look into this and report back to Nick McDonald as required. 4. Both Jackie Fraser of the APAO and Dick Pipe of Georgian Aggregates indicated that the APAO was currently undertaking a Province-wide study on aggregate extraction. A number of case studies on extraction activities, most noticeable in the Town of Caledon and the Township of Zorra are intended to be reviewed or described in the context of the APAO study. Working Group members were interested in the findings of the study and were told that the study would be available in mid-December. 5. There was also some discussion on the economic impacts of aggregate extraction. Kathy Woeller of the Ministry of Natural Resources indicated that it was the position of the Ministry of Natural Resources that the economic impacts of extraction should be reviewed and conveyed to the public. The intent is to ensure that the public is aware that there are benefits to permitting extraction activities in a municipality, in terms of ensuring that the cost of housing and infrastructure is kept low. 6. There were a number of questions about what the intent of the Aggregate Resource Management plan is, particularly given that the policies in the Official Plan are currently considered to be acceptable by many. Nick McDonald stated that there are a number of reasons why the study is being carried out. The foremost reason is to develop a coherent and agreed upon policy on the use of haul routes. At the present time, the Official Plan does not contain much direction on haul routes and the Township wishes to be prepared in the future as pit applications are submitted to determine how the haul routes should be configured, treated and located. In addition, it was indicated Ihat a further intent of the program is to ensure that members of the public are as up to date as possible on the state of the resource in their municipality. In addition, the location of future resource extraction activities needs to be confirmed, given the environmental information that will be collected as part of the process. 7. With respect to haul routes, Nick McDonald went through a proposal from Cansult Tatham to conduct an assessment of existing and future haul routes in the Township of Oro-Medonte. Nick indicated that since Township and County roads in the municipality are currently used by about 93,000 full truck loads of gravel per year, the development of a policy on haul routes was an important component of this exercise. The rationale for retaining a consulting firm to complete the work was discussed and some concerns were expressed about Ihe lack of up to date data on traffic counts on some of the roads in the municipality. It was agreed that it would be prudent for Cansult Tatham to initiate work on the project, however, there was also some agreement that information gaps identified will need to be explored and dealt with in the spring of 2002 to ensure that the study is accurate as possible. As a footnote to the above item, Council agreed on November 14, 2001 to proceed with the study of the haul routes, as outlined by Cansult Tatham. Staff at the County of Simcoe stated that they would fund their component of the study program process. Work on data collection is expected to begin immediately. A map showing existing haul routes Page 2 113 Collier Street, Barrie, Ontario L4M 1H2 Phone: (705) 137-4512 Fax: (705) 737-5078 te0 is being prepared and will be forwarded to working group members in the short term. In addition, mapping showing the location of all existing pits and the extent of the mineral aggregate resource designation will be provided to each working group member by mail. 8. There was a considerable amount of discussion on the existing Official Plan policies. Nick McDonald reviewed each of the policies and indicated that they were the result of a number of discussion held at Ihe time the Official Plan was prepared in 1995/1996. Most people around the table felt that the policies were appropriate and questioned whether there was any benefit in updating them. Nick McDonald indicated that some of the policies could be fine-tuned, based on new information on environmental features and functions collected as part of this process and the Oro Moraine Land Use Strategy process. In addition the actual limits of the lands to be designated for future resource extraction may be refined as part of this process, again depending on the information collected as part of the environmental review. 9. The Work Program as set out at the meeting was generally considered by the working group members to be appropriate. One concern was expressed about the open houses being held for this project and the timing for the open houses being held for the Oro Moraine Land Use strategy project. It was agreed that there would be some merit in combining the open houses on the two projects throughout the duration of the two studies. This will ensure that all information relating to both projects are available at the same time for public consumption and consideration. 10. There was some discussion about the policy in the Official Plan about the assessment of added impact. Kathy Woeller of the MNR indicated that she was surprised that such a policy was approved by the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing. The policy essentially states that any new pit application in an area of existing pits or future pits has to take into account the added impact of the new pit in addition to the impacts of existing pits and the potential impacts of future pits in the area. I indicated that I was aware of only one situation where this issue was considered (Stewart application) and I will be reviewing this report in the short term. 11. There was a brief discussion on the Caledon experience. Prior to the Working Group meeting, Nick McDonald circulated an executive summary of the work carried out in the Town of Caledon. Jackie Fraser and Kathy Woeller both provided the working group of Iheir insights of the issues raised by the Caledon project. Specifically, both indicated that any effort to prioritize extraction areas would be met with stiff opposition from both the Province and the APAO. On the basis of this comment, there were a number of comments made about the appropriateness of permitting a number of pits to develop at the same time given the amount of land already set aside for such development and licensed. Kathy Woeller indicated that a municipality could not preclude the issuing of a license on the basis of the existing number and amount of other pits in a general area. Jackie Fraser of the APAO echoed this same comment. 12. Nick McDonald indicated that a municipality does have some control over aggregate extraction, through its Official Plan and Zoning by-law. The Aggregate Resources Act Page 3 113 Collier Street, Barrie, Ontario L4M 1 H2 Phone: (705) 737-4512 Fax: (705) 737-5078 't c /1 essentially states that the development of a pit is not permitted until lands are properly zoned. On this basis, it is Mr. McDonald's opinion that the municipality has an ability through the Planning Act to identify where extraction activities can and cannot occur in their municipality, based on accepted criteria. Mr. Dick Pipe of Georgian Aggregates indicated that he did not think the municipality had that ability while Kathy Woeller of the MNR did indicate that the municipality has the ability 10 make decisions on where aggregate extraction will occur. The caveat is that the decision on where it will occur has to be based on some rationale and science. 13. The next meeting on the Aggregate Resource Management Plan is tentatively scheduled for March 5, 2002 at 1 :30 pm. I trust that the above accurately reflects the majority of the comments that were made at the working group meeting. If anyone has any questions about this summary, please call or email me.

In addition this report also reviews proposed building locations and makes a recommendation with respect to the parkland dedication. Lastly, this report lists the options available to Council with respect to the provision of parkland. 2.0 BACKGROUND On December 18, 2000, Council held a public meeting to hear an application for an Official Plan Amendment by Horseshoe Valley Lands Ltd. to redesignate approximately 12.7 hectares (31.4 acres) from Medium Density Residential to Low Density Residential to permit the development of 13 residential lots ranging in area from 0.4 ha to 2.7 ha. The public meeting also dealt with an application to rezone the same lands from Agricultural/Rural (AIRU) to a Residential Exception (R1) Zone. The proposed zoning would implement the proposed Low Density Residential designation and would permit a residential Plan of Subdivision. The proposed Plan of Subdivision was also presented at a public meeting on December 18, 2000 in accordance with Section 51 of the Planning Act. On June 20, 2001, Council received and approved a report prepared by The Planning Partnership recommending approval of the Plan of Subdivision, subject to conditions, and the approval of OPA # 12. The conditions of Draft Plan approval and a reduced version of the Draft Approved plan are contained within Appendix A. OPA 12 was eventually approved by County Planning Services Committee on November 1, 2001. The Notice of Decision is attached as Appendix B. No appeals to either the subdivision or the OPA were received. 3.0 WHAT HAS HAPPENED SINCE DRAFT PLAN APPROVAL? Since Draft Plan Approval was issued, the developer has worked to clear as many of the Draft Conditions as possible. One of the major conditions (condition # 7), was that each of the building envelopes on the proposed lots had to be identified and staked in the field so that a detailed assessment of the location of each building envelope could be undertaken. This work was completed by Horseshoe in October 2001 and Andria Leigh and Nick McDonald reviewed the proposed locations of the building and septic envelopes and in some cases the driveway locations, on each lot on October 26, 2001. On the basis of the site visit, a number of minor changes to the locations of the proposed building envelopes were suggested. Specifically, it was recommended that the building envelope on Lot 5 be moved to the north to avoid the slope. In order to facilitate an appropriate building envelope location on Lot 5, the building envelope on Lot 4 was also moved. As a result, the proposed lot line between Lots 4 and 5 are proposed to be shifted to the north by an additional 16.2 metres (53 feet) to accommodate the new location for the building envelope on Lot 5. As a result of this change in location of the lot line, a revision to the Draft Plan is required, as shown on Appendix C. HORSESHOE VALLEY LAND LIMITED Prepared by ~ (J tl.l~!QMM 1 January 3, 2002 ? ~ /4 On the basis of our review of the proposed change to the Lot 415 boundary, it is our opinion that the new location of the building envelope on Lot 5 is much more appropriate from a planning perspective. Specifically, less of the building envelope extends beyond the top of the 3:1 slope, meaning that less site alteration and vegetation removal wi/} be required to facilitate the development of Lot 5. A number of other minor changes to the locations of the building envelopes were requested after the staff site visit. Many of these changes had to do with the location of the rear building envelope in relation to the 3:1 siope. All of these suggested changes have been substantially complied with. A reduced copy of the Plan showing building envelopes in locations suggested by staff is attached as Appendix D. If the Plan is approved as submitted, only a few minor incursions onto the 3:1 slope on the lands will occur. Given the topographical challenges on the property, this is considered to be acceptable. The amount of land located within the 13 building envelopes totals 1.71 hectares (4.2 acres). This translates into approximately 17.6% of the total site area of 9.6 hectares (23.7 acres). It should be noted that not all of the lands within a particular building envelope will be cleared, since Ihe size of the home will primarily depend on the desires of the purchaser. The average amount of land within each building envelope on a lot will be 23.6%. The table below shows what percentage of each lot may be altered. LOT AREA (M2) BUILDINGISEPTIC AREA PERCENTAGE % (M2) ENVELOPE AREA 1 4345.53 1850.02 42.6 2 4581.94 1554.81 33.9 3 13325.49 1908.08 14.3 4 6689.75 1203.47 18.0 5 7009.94 689.36 9.8 6 21460.7 2398.38 11.2 7 4934.74 1640.68 33.2 8 4049.76 1271.33 31.4 9 4031.89 1024.82 25.4 10 4023.44 923.41 23.0 11 4012.36 1033.31 25.8 12 4242.51 697.51 16.4 13 4121.05 936.74 22.7 Additional areas for driveways in the required front yards of lots 1,2,4,5,7,8,9,10,11,12 and 13 may be cleared as well. In order to control tree loss and landform alteration, each of the proposed lots will be subject to specific restrictions pursuant to a Site Plan Agreement or the subdivision agreement. In either case, the site plan attached to the agreement will show the location of the building envelope and in some cases the location of the appropriate driveway. The site plan will stipulate very clearly that the cutting of trees outside of either the driveway or building envelopes or in the required front yards to facilitate the construction of the driveway will be prohibited. HORSESHOE VALLEY LAND LIMITED Prepared by n ( ~ !1lRlQJAH V 2 January 3, 2002 ?e'S As tree cutting is most likely to occur prior to or during the construction of a home, it is proposed that the appropriate agreement contain a provision requiring the submission of a Letter of Credit to ensure compliance with the agreement at the time the building permit is applied for. The Letter of Credit will be returned one year from the date final occupancy is achieved by the property owner. The letter of credit amount is suggested to be $15,000.00. 4.0 THE PARKLAND ISSUE The Draft Plan was approved with a park block that had an area of 0.993 hectares (2.45 acres). However, on the basis of a detailed review of the location of the park block, it is suggested that the park block not be accepted by the Township as parkland in its current configuration. Instead, it is suggested that the park block be significantly reduced in size to 0.19 hectares (.46 acres) as shown on the attached plan (the new Block 15). The new location and size was selected because the lands are high and suited for the siting of picnic tables and perhaps benches which could be used by residents in the area to take in the views to the north. The active use of this park block, if accepted by the Township, is not feasible. It is our understanding that there is a need for active playgrounds in the Horseshoe Resort area, as more children move into the community. On this basis, there may be some benefit to the municipality in not taking any land on this property and requesting cash-in-lieu of parkland instead. However, the park block shown on the attached plan could be a unique asset in the municipality and for people in the area who like to take in the beauty of the area. The total amount of land proposed to be dedicated comprises 2.05% of the area to be subdivided. As a result, there is a short fall of 2.95% or 0.28 hectares (0.70 acres). In order to make up this shortfall, cash-in-lieu of the remaining 2.95% should be taken, with some of that amount being used for a new active park in the Horseshoe community. In order to determine what the cash-in-lieu amount is, the lands will have to be appraised and its value on the date before Draft Approval was given determined. Once that determination is made, it will then be relatively simple to determine how much cash-in-lieu will be required. However, before having the property appraised, Council's concurrence on the amount and location of parkland is required. The shifting of the parkland block has led to the creation of a new block (Block 14) to the north and west of Block 15. This Block is of no use to the Township. However, it should not be crealed as a separate conveyable parcel. On this basis, it is recommended that the surplus lands be deleted from the Plan of Subdivision and merged in title with the abutting golf course lands as a Condition of Approval. If Block 14 is deleted from the Plan, the total area of the subdivision is reduced from 9.67 hectares (23.89 acres) to 8.88 hectares (21.9 acres). This will have an impact on the amount of parkland required as well, with 0.44 hectares (1.09 acres) being required. As 0.19 hectares (0.46 acres) is being provided in Block 15, the shortfall then becomes 0.25 hectares (0.6 acres) or 2.8% of the property. HORSESHOE VALLEY LAND LIMITED Prepared by () tll~l!UAM 3 January 3, 2002 te/G 5.0 PROPOSED ZONING BY-LAW One of the conditions of Draft Plan Approval is that the lands be appropriately zoned for development. At the present time, the lands are zoned Agricultural/Rural Hold in accordance with By-law 97-95. The lands will need to be rezoned to an appropriate Residential category to permit the development of 13 homes. The By-law applying to the lands will need to be site specific in nature, to both recognize and permit the lot frontages that are proposed and to identify what the setbacks from the 3: 1 slope on the lands will be. At the present time, the provisions of the R1 Zone require that each lot have a minimum frontage of 30 metres. Seven of the thirteen proposed lots will meet this standard. Lot # 1,2,4,6, 10 and 13 will not. Given the character of the homes on the street and the nature of the lots to be developed on the property, the reduction in the minimum lot frontages is considered to be appropriate and supported. It should be noted that the lot frontages on the property will be consistently greater than Ihe lot frontages on the east side of Highland Drive With respect to slopes, the By-law currently requires that all developmenl be setback a minimum of 23 metres (75 feet) from any 3:1 slope in the Township. This is a general provision which applies to all properties in the municipality. In this particular case, it is impossible to comply with this standard, given the location of the slope on the property. In addition, as the lands are to be developed with high-end prestige housing, it is conceivable that the slope, from an engineering perspective will not pose any difficulties in terms of cost, in constructing the new homes. In addition, the homes are intended to be sited to take advantage of the existing views wherever possible. The best views are obtained from immediately adjacent to the top of the 3:1 slope. As a guiding principle, we have made every effort to ensure that no development extends beyond the top of the 3:1 slope. However, given the configuration of the lots and the size of the houses, a number of minor incursions onto the slope itself are proposed. In our opinion, these incursions are relatively minor, given the scale of development and the amount of the incursion. However, in order to deal with these incursions, the implementing zoning by-law will need to be specific as on which lots an incursion will be permitted. At this point, incursions will be permitted on Lots 5, 11, 12 and 13. With the remainder of the lots, the setback ranges from 3.0 metres to 8.0 metres from the top of 3:1 siope. On this basis, each lot in the Plan of Subdivision will have a specific setback applying to that 101. It should be noted that the Site Plan Agreement will also assist in ensuring that the building and septic envelopes are located away from the slope itself. The proposed By- law is contained within Appendix E. 6.0 RECOMMENDATIONS On the basis of the above, it is recommended that the red-line revision (the lot4/5 boundary) and the zoning by-law applying to the lands be approved.
