. NVCA Business Plan Approved in 2001
The NVCA Business Plan process was a cooperative one. It started by defining the NVCA vision: one of
healthy waters and a sustainable future. Endorsed by the NVCA Full Authority, the document provides a
strategic approach for the next 3 years. The NVCA Business Plan is an integration of excellent programs,
communication, efficient administration, information management and sound budget forecasting. The
Business Plan, programs and budget are a strategic package: triad that moves the NVCA toward our
vision of "Conserving our Healthy Waters".

· Tree Planting .
The NVCA plant~ a total of 57,000 trees on public and private lands in 2001. Private landowners .
planted an additional 24,000 trees on their lands during this period. Field conditions throughout the -=
watershed were varied, some drought prone areas suffered due the extreme dry weather experience
last year. The New Tecumseth tree planting program had another successful a second year, almost
30,000 trees were planted. Through a co-operative program between the NVCA, Lake Simcoe Region
C.A., and the Stewardship Networks in North Simcoe and Oufferin a total of 6500 trees were planted.
The 12th Annual Arbour Day saw 6 municipalities selling tree seedlings within their communities. Tree
seedlings in 2002 will come from Kempville and Somerville Nurseries. The total of tree seedlings are
down in 2002 due to a crop failure'in KempviJIe. In 2003, all seedlings will be obtained from Somerville
Nurseries in Alliston.

· S1 Water Quality Projects Approved in 2001
The Healthy Waters Program is a commitment by the NVCA's 18 member municipalities to improve
stream health within the Nottawasaga watershed. Monitoring has shown that the health of our streams
have degraded by urban and rural non-point source pollution. Changing to Best Management
Practices in both urban and rural environments is an effective and proven method of improving and
protecting our water quality. Through the implementation of the Healthy Waters Incentive Program the
whole watershed benefits. The NVCA anticipate an additional $351,000 in 2002 for Healthy Waters
Projects.

. 1000 Permits Reviewed
Land Use Planning is central to any strategy for conserving our healthy waters. The NVCA planning
pOlicies form a framework for protecting significant natural features. While implementing these policies,
NVCA staff reviewed more than 1000 pennits in 2001 each having its own resource utilization and land
use implications. Watershed and sub-watershed plan documents generated by the NVCA provides
municipalities with important development constraint mapping and help set standards for sustainable
growth. .
· low Water Response Team Initiated
The Low Water Response Team is a multi-agency team that accesses the seriousness of drought
situations and will.develop strategies for dealing with water shortages. The NVCA will continue to.. __
develop stormwater management and erosion control standards that witt minimize the effects of new
developments on stream channels. '
· Municipal Drain Classification Project .
In 2001, the municipal drain classification project proceeded through partnership with Fisheries and
Oceans Canada and will result in streamlined approvals for municipal drainage superintendents.
· Province Grants $915.875.00 for Simcoe County Groundwater Study f
In late 2001, we received almost 1million dollars for a groundwater study that will generate invaluable
planning tools for protection of groundwater. The study will involve all of our Simcoe COUnty
municipalities and will generate knowtedge gained during earlier studies in our DufferinlGrey
municipalities into a comprehensive understanding of aquifer systems and groundwater supply across
the watershed.

· Partnership brings Tiffin Centre for Conservation Environmental Education Programs Back
Environmental Education Programs are again being offered at the Tiffin Centre for Conservation after
the NVCA was forced to refocus programming last June when the Simcoe County Board of Education
drastically reduced its funding for this program. Fred Tustin, Director of Beyond the Horizon Outdoor
Adventures has signed a 2*year contract with the NVCA to provide "hands on leaming" for watershed

TOWNSHIP OF ORO-MEDONTE
OFFICE OF THE CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER
REPORT TO COUNCIL
REPORT NO.: ADM2002-08
PREPARED BY: 7. Zieleniewski, Chief Administrative Officer
DATE: February 20, 2002
SUBJECT: Amendment to Schedule `A' By-law 96-35,
Procedure - Sale of Surplus Lands
BACKGROUND
A Draft By-law to amend Schedule `A', By-law 96-35, Procedure -Sale of Surplus
Lands was presented at Committee of the Whole on February 13, 2002. At that
time, the Committee recommended that the Clerk bring forward a by-law for
Council consideration. The amendment was put forward to allow Council another
option in the sale of surplus lands besides the two options already in force
(tenders and real estate or brokerage).
ANALYSIS
After consideration of the discussion of the draft by-law on February 13, 2002
and during the interval between the Committee of the Whole meeting and
Council, staff further reviewed the draft amendment and found the last sentence
of Clause 4.4 very restrictive and contrary to Council's intent:
"The real properly to be conveyed must be unable to be independently
developed for residential use by virtue of zoning requirements or lack of
direct access to or frontage on an open, public road."
Clause 4.4 restricts the sale of surplus lands to landowners who either abut the
property to be sold or claim a legal interest in the property (i.e. easement, right-
of-way, possessory title or a restrictive covenant). The added restriction of being
"unable to be independently developed" would negate this option for most
restricted lands in the municipality. The remaining restrictions limit the sale
sufFciently by requiring ownership or some legal interest.
~..
RECOMMENDATION
1. That this report be received and adopted.
ti 2. That the Clerk be authorized to bring forward a by-law to amend Schedule'A',
• By-law 96-35 as presented on February 13, 2002 with the deletion of the last
sentence of Clause 4.4.

Dear Mayor Beard and Members of Council:
RE: Proposal for Class A (Category 3) Pit in Part Lots 8 and 9, Concession 12
and Part Lot 9, Concession 13, Township of Oro-Medonte
(Hill way Equipment Limited, 121h Line Pit)
The Federation of Ontario Naturalists has been asked by the Orillia Naturalists' Club to
provide comments on the above-noted proposal for a new aggregate extraction
operation on the Oro Moraine.
The Federation of Ontario Naturalists (FON) protects Ontario's nature through
scientific research, education and conservation action. FON advocates protection and
conservation of sustainable woodlands, wetlands and wildlife through public and private
action, including its own system of nature reserves. FON is a charitable, non-
government organization representing over 20,000 members and supporters and over
115 community-based organizations across Ontario.
FON has a longstanding interest in land use planning to protect natural areas. ,
Beginning with the initiative to create a landscape-level plan for the Niagara
Escarpment that stems back to the 1970s, FON has attempted to look at "the big
picture" as well as, in some cases, at individual development proposals. Most recently,
we have played a major role in securing a protective land use plan for the Oak Ridges
Moraine as a large landform traversing several municipalities.
It is in this broad context that we wish to view the above-noted aggregate extraction
proposal. The Oro Moraine is, without doubt, a very important landscape feature in
Simcoe County. It has a number of critically important natural heritage and
hydrogeological attributes the protection of which needs to be carefully planned. It is

clear that the forests of the Oro Moraine and its water resources are the two primary
features that will benefit from landform-wide planning.
Therefore, rather than comment on specific details of the above-noted aggregate
proposal, FON wishes to encourage the Township of Oro-Medonte to work with the
Ministry of Natural Resources, the Ministry of Municipal Affairs & Housing and the
Ministry of the Environment on landform-wide planning for the Oro Moraine. There
has been a wealth of background research and policy development from the Oak Ridges
Moraine experience that FON expects would be very useful to creating a landscape-
level plan to protect the Oro Moraine. The aggregate policies in the draft Oak Ridges
Moraine Conservation Plan (the final edition of which is soon to be approved by the
Minister of Municipal Affairs and Housing) could be examined, as well as the entire set
of policies that seek to protect natural features through a system of increasingly
restrictive land use designations for increasingly sensitive and important natural areas.
\.r
FON hopes that the Township and the provincial ministries could work together on a
plan for appropriately balancing landform protection and various forms of development
on the Oro Moraine. We would also hope that the proponent of the above-noted pit
would agree to a deferral of the application until the planning exercise is completed.

Twp.OfOro-Medonte
Box 100, Oro, Ontario
LOL 2XO
RE: Request for update on Plan 709 Park Block 'A' Part Two
The Oro Lea Beach Association (OLB) requests an update regarding deliberations around
Plan 709 Park Block 'A'.
First, the OLB disagrees with the township CAO's assertion that the January 9th, 2002,
meeting concerning appraisals are confidential to the :tront lot residents_ The excerpt
fi:om my original letter dated December 30th, 2001, was attributed to the OLB lawyer,
when in fact this is an opinion rendered by a township directed legal fIrm. The ratepayers
of Plan 709 are deeded in perpetuity those parklands (plan 709 Blocks 'A', 'B', & 'C). At
the township meeting last fall a concensus was reached that the ratepayers would be
amenable to a sale offi:ont lot adjoining lands in Park Block 'A' at market value and that
the proceeds would be held in trust for in&astructure projects in the PIan 709 community.
Second, the OLB requests copies of: the land appraisal conducted by the township
appointed independent appraiser with full parcel market value and broken down into
market values for those adjoining parcels; the determined values at which said parcels
will be offered to those front lot residents; and the rationale if market value for those
adjoining parcels do not match the township's offer to those :front lot properties.
Third, the OLB requests confirmation in 'Writing that the proceeds of this sale of
parklands will be held in trust for the OLB.
Finally, we would like to see all other available information regarding the ongoing
deliberations with respect to these parklands.
The OLB has a hefty volume of petitions and correspondence demonstrating that these
parklands are not surplus. Our original intent, supported by the majority of ratepayers,
was to demark this waternont park, our 770ft crownjewl ofparklands. It is quite
obvious that loss of use of these lands will have a signifIcant impact on the amount of
watemont available to residents of PIan 709; the OLB agreed to the proposed sale of
~
! oh: ;)-
lands only if the proceeds were directed to the OLB to support the remaining parklands'
maintenance activities and infrastructure improvements.
The letter dated, December 22, 2000, sent by the OLB lawyer to township states: "By-law
96-35 does not appear to govern the proposed sale oflands by Council as set out in your
recommendation. We have previously requested your confirmation that the sales ofrea1
property contemplated by Township Council will be made at fair market value."
The lack of transparency in these deliberations worries the OLB immensely. Our
abovenoted requests seem quite reasonable from our perspective. We hope that council
understands our frustration at this lack of transparency, and realize that legal action will
be our next recourse to ensure the wishes of the majority of Plan 709 ratepayers are
respected.
