Subject: condolences
Hello Ralph,
I just learned of lan's passing and wished to extend
my condolences to his family and the other council
members in Oro-Medonte:
Ian was a fine gentleman, humble, wise and fair - in
my opinion, he was a good leader for the township. He
often wore his council jacket at public functions,
proving he was a mayor of the people and a man
fiercely proud of his community.
He kept a level head during tough times and never lost
sight of the values to which his constituents held
dear. r
On a personal note, I found Ian to be a very
personable mayor, aJJowing me to enjoy a close and
friendly relationship with Oro-Medonte councillors and
staff while at the same time feeling free to persue
objective and sometimes critical reporting for the
Packet & limes.
If I've learned anything from my recent experience at
the Ottawa Sun, it's that leaders like Ian Beard are
few and far between. I'll miss him.
- A.J. Blauer
PS: If there is a memorial service sometime in the
future, perhaps to unveil a tribute to lan, I would
gladly like to come to Oro-Medonte to be on hand.

REPORT OF THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER FOR THE BOARD
MEETING OF MARCH 28, 2002
1. VOLUNTEER LUNCH - MONDAY, APRIL 22,2002
Yon are invited!
Our new Volunteer Coordinator/Community Relations employee Jayne
Turvey is organizing the Volunteer Appreciation Lunch and we would like to
invite members of the Board to attend. The date is Monday, April 22, 2002 at
noon. Jayne has some terrific ideas and this year will be a little different from
past years (hint: the theme is the 'Wizard of Oz') but we think everyone will
have a really great time!
As you know from reading the Annual Reports the Orillia Public Library has a
well-developed volunteer program with nearly 80 volunteers who shelve
library materials, deliver to shut-ins and raise funds as Friends of the Library.
On this Monday in April the library is closed to the public until 3 :00 pm as we
host a lunch for our volunteers to express our appreciation.
2. SUNDAY OPENING
We have received a memo from Council about the possibility of opening on
Sundays. (enclosed) I have had one meeting so far with management staff to
begin the process. We are:
~ Calling libraries that are currently open on Sundays to find out what they
have done in terms of staffing, scheduling and compensation.
~ Tracking library use over the course of the day, week and month.
~ Discussing the level of service and staffing that needs to be provided on
Sundays.
As we continue to gather information we will be able to report to the Board
what we will need to make Sunday opening happen.
3. COST OF LIVING INCREASE
Now that the budget has been set for the year there will be a motion prepared
to authorize a 2.25% increase in staff salaries retroactive to January 1,2002.

CHILDREN'S SERVICES
Reference
The number of reference transactions answered by Children's Services Staff
increased by forty-four percent this month.
Reference Questions:
February 2002: 475
February 2001: 329
Children's Services staff gathered six book collections for classroom use by
teachers.
Three hundred and thirty-two people used the Internet and Multi-media
computers, an increase of forty-one percent over February 2001.
Volunteer
Susan Bodis, a library member volunteered to make a new skin for Seymour, our
story time snake. Once the material was chosen, she quickly went to work and
not only made the new skin, but also put Seymour in it. In addition, Susan's
mother, Phyllis Palmer paid for the material for the snake.
The children are thrilled to have Seymour back as he was greatly missed. The
staff and all the children who visit the library sincerely thank Susan and Phyllis for
creating another wonderful skin for Seymour and the children to enjoy.
New Services
The circulating CD ROM collection is now available for patrons to borrow thanks
to a push from the cataloging department, and a great effort from Susan Dance
and Gail Mathews.
The collection is very popular and, so far is rarely on the shelves.
'"
PrOQrams
Book Babies, Tales for Twos and Preschool stories ran through February
featuring the themes winter, Valentine's Day, animals and shapes.
7 b) 7
Lee began the Book Buddies Saturday morning program, for children from 2-6
years, on Saturday February 6. This program has full registration plus a waiting
list. The children had fun with programs that took them on an adventure,
celebrated Valentine's Day, introduced them to "Winter Surprises", and asked
them "Whoa? Whoa?"
Promotion and Publicitv
Wee Watch Home Care Providers and their children visited the library on
February 22 for a story time, tour and activity.
In house material displays included Valentine's Day, Poetry, and Winter Sports.
The Web page was updated to include a page for March Break Activities and a
page for general homework help sites.
AUDIO VISUAL SERVICES
With the ever-increasing space problem in the Audiovisual Services room a
decision had to be made to remove some of the material. We decided to
withdraw the CNIB collection of Talking Books.
Joyce Simpson contacted the CNIB and they suggested that we dispose of them
in whatever way we deemed suitable. Other libraries were contacted and there
was no interest in receiving the materials. Joyce then approached the
Lightsighters group in Orillia and Mrs. Violet Fordham was approached.
Mrs. Fordham was delighted with the opportunity of increasing the group's
collection of talking books. She has taken on the task of previewing the talking
books before distributing them to the members.
Her daughter picked up the first few boxes and the remainder the Library staff
delivered. Mrs. Fordham greeted the staff at the door with a donation of $100.00
to be put toward the purchase of new Books on Tape.
A total of 126 talking book titles were withdrawn from the collection
"
We have purchased about 20 DVDs; however, we are not yet circulating DVDs
as we had a concern over security. We have decided to place them in security
boxes similar to those housing the CD collection. We are presently waiting for
the security cases to arrive at the library.

ordinator took place. Jayne Turvey was the successful candidate. Jayne has a Bachelor of
Applied Arts in Radio and Television from Ryerson, a number of years experience in fundraising
and recruiting volunteers, twenty years working for local media (B 1 01, EZ Rock, Global TV) and
has co-authored a book. She has been busy talking to the present volunteers to determine if
changes need to be made to our volunteer process and interviewing new applicants. She has
begun to plan the Volunteer Luncheon for Volunteer Week April 21 st to 26th.
Jennifer Murrant left for New Zealand for six months and Louise Campbell came out of a very
short retirement to cover Jennifer's hours until August.
We hired Jocelyn White, our co-op student from the Fall, to work a four hour shift as a page,
until she returns to school in September.
REFERENCE QUESTIONS:
Queries made at the reference desk this month were up twelve percent over last year at this time.
1860 questions were answered. Six of these were sent to us via e.;.mail and one came via fax.
USE OF ONLINE PRODUCTS:
EbscoHost, the online index to periodical articles, was accessed 106 times in the month, which
represents a fiteen percent increase over last year..
INTERNET USAGE:
A fourteen percent increase in Internet usage was experience in February, even though we were not
giving training.
PROMOTION:
Three newspaper articles were submitted to the Packet. One booklist and one promotional brochure
was created for the month.
At the last strategic planning meeting, it was suggested that the library's home page should link to
local businesses. Fred has created a list and mounted it and I will do an article in the Packet
promoting it and asking for those we have missed (or those who do not wish to be included).

NEWSPAPER INDEX:
Lynn indexed 238 news stories in the month, along with 58 births, deaths and marriages. To follow
up on John Swartz suggestion, I contacted Mike Sallows at the Packet. He said that the Packet may
be available on CDROM starting in March or April. The disc will be keyword searchable and each
disc will11ave-one-wea-offacket~n-it:-He-stated-that-it-wBu1d-b€-mad.e-av:ailab I e to theJiblary, at
no charge. So I will follow up in a few weeks to see how this project is progressing.
COMMUNITY OUTREACH:
Materials were gathered for twelve shut-ins during the month.
INTERLmRARY LOANS:
Interlibrary loans are down by a few items, both in the numbers we have borrowed from others and
the numbers we have lent. Other libraries are experiencing the same problems with the ILL system
as we are. The statistics will improve as the problems with the new system are ironed out.
GOVERNMENT DOCUMENTS:
Most of the annual report collection which we initiated at the beginning of the year has been
processed and filed in the cabinet. A second cabinet wiB have to be ordered, as there were too many
for one. My next article to the Packet will promote the collection, along with other reference
materials that can be used for investment.

REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR OF TECHNICAL SERVICES
FEBRUARY 2002
Professional Development
I attended the 2002 Ontario Library Association conference in Toronto on January 31
and February 1. I had two full and worthwhile days, and an excellent chance to
recharge librarian batteries and share ideas. A report on the sessions I attended is
attached.
Systems
From February 19 to 21 our new Geac Advance server was installed and activated by
Geac staff, working online from Markham and Boston. There were a few minor
hitches on start up, but by the 22nd things were running smoothly. The new server
runs Advance and GeoWeb much faster. For instance, the monthly circulation report
now runs in about 10 minutes, compared to 45 minutes on the old server. The daily
partial backups used to take 30 minutes, now a full system backup takes about 7
minutes.
Technical Processing
New cataloguer Susan Dance began work early in February, partially replacing the
retired Bernice Lowndes.
I'd like to commend Gail Matthews for her excellent work in keeping the department
going and the materials coming out. She also did a great job sorting out the
volunteer files and notes, and preparing them for the new volunteer coordinator.

Re: Trapping Issue (Skunks" Wanninster)
We are contacting you il1 regards to a grovving "skunk" problem. At1ached is a number of
sigl1atllreS of people in the Warminster area that are concerned and ask for some assistance from
the township.
Over the last three years our skunk problem has definitely increased. Many people are
complaining their dogs have been sprayed on l1Umerous occasiOlls while in their own fenced
yards. The skunks are spotted in the ditches and on almost every street corner. This makes it
rather difficult to even walk your dog in the moming, dtuing the day and in the evenings. The
evenings are extremely bad.
Our beautiful park, adjacent to the firehall which is used by many children and baseball teams, is
definitely a home for these critters. They have been spotted there many times. We have a
beautiful park that we will not be able to enjoy if the skunks al.e not soon controlled. There is
also another bush area near the Warminster soccer field which also seems to be maybe anotl1er
possible home. I-low will the children be able to play soccer this summer?
We have been in recent contact with Natural Resources and they admit there is a growing
concem and with such a mild winter there hasn't really been any hibernation for the skunks.
Already in the subdivision near the firehall/park area some skunks have been seen and definitely
very strongly smelt just a week ago. Last week, at school, the kids were sent in from recess early
because of a skunk in the school yard. If the skunks are Hke this now, what is it going to be
like this summer? Natural Resources has informed uS that the skunks Cali be trapped, but we
would be responsible for the bill. Since the park and soccer field mentioned are o"Wtled by the
township we feel we should not really be responsible for the costs.
One last concern about the skunk problem is rabies. What happens if the skunk has rabies and
bites a child or someone's pet allimal. There are some dogs that are tied outside during the day
or at night, if these animals are bit and no one is home, guess what wi1I happen to the animal.
Children that are old enough to stay home alone and are bit, if tl1ey do not receive medical
attention right away, guess what will happen to the'I11.

It only makes sense that sometl1ing should be done soon as this is a growing concern and
annoyance for families, children arid pet ovvners. Hopefully. something can be done as soon as
possible before this gets any worse.
I know it is budget time and every municipality's goal is to save money. A suggestion to cover
this cost is maybe only provide one large item pick-up each year instead of two.
Thank you for your time and consideration.

Tobacco Bylaw Progress Report # 4
Attention:
Date:
Simcoe County Mayors and Members of Council
March 22, 2002
Based on years of sound evidence regarding the serious health impacts of tobacco use and
secondhand smoke exposure, the Medical Officer of Health has advised all 16 municipalities and 2
separated cities in Simcoe County that they have a legal mandate and ethical responsibility to
respond to this health issue by passing 100% smoke-free bylaws to ensure a safe and healthy
environment and protect the health of all residents, workers and visitors to their community.
Given the overwhelming evidence of the health impacts of tobacco use and secondhand smoke, it
is shocking that a small and vocal minority has managed to turn the health issue into a debate
about economics, designated smoking rooms J ventilation, rights and political responsibility.
The Facts are:
Economics
There is a misconception that 100% smoke-free bylaws will harm business. In reality there have
been many objective and scientifically valid studies conducted since smoke-free laws were
introduced in Canada and the U.S. They have shown that smoke-free bylaws have no long-term
impact on business. (A list of these studies is available on the health unit website under Tobacco
Bylaws at www.simcoehealth.org). These studies use concrete evidence from sales tax returns,
general economic trends, unemployment rates and business failure rates in their research.
To date the only documented negative economic impact has been a short-term decline in sales for
the first one to two months after a bylaw becomes effective. Over the longer term several studies
found sales have increased in bars and restaurants after smoke-free bylaws have been enacted as
non-smokers begin going out more often and staying longer. Simcoe County wide 100% smoke-
free bylaws would have the added benefit of ensuring a level playing field for all business.
The most recent study conducted in Ottawa by KPMG Chartered Accountants provided an
unbiased overview of the economic impact of the no-smoking bylaw recently passed in Ottawa.
Results show employment in the hospitality industry is up and bankruptcy and insolvency rates are
lower than the same time frame for the past 2 years. Clearly the no-smoking bylaw has had no
impact on business insolvency since being implemented. Attached is a fact sheet that summarizes
some of this economic information. Also attached is a recent press release with current survey
results indicating that the overwhelming majority of Simcoe County residents said they would go out
more often or their frequency would not change if 100% smoke-free bylaws were in place.

Designated Smoking Rooms and Ventilation
It is also important to recognize that designated smoking rooms (DSR) and ventilation are not the
solution. DSR's cannot protect the health of anyone in these rooms, not the patrons nor the workers
who must spend time in them. DSR's would allow unlimited exposure of workers to secondhand
smoke. This creates inequitable working conditions for employees as those not in the DRS would
be completely protected while those in the DSR would have no protection what so ever. With non-
smoking food service workers 50% more likely to develop lung cancer than other non-smokers, it's
a hefty price to pay. Ventilation also is not the answer as there is no ventilation system approved by
any level of government in Canada as being able to remove all the poisons from secondhand
smoke. There is no safe level of exposure. Attached is a DSR I Ventilation fact sheet for your
information.
Rights
There is also the concern that the rights and freedoms of individuals and of businesses are being
eroded. In a democratic society we certainly have to weigh these decisions very carefully. At the
same time, governments have a responsibility to ensure the safety of their residents by putting
controls in place to protect people's health. Businesses and individuals have to comply with a range
of laws that have been put into place to protect others (seat belts, speed limits, food safety
regulations, drinking and driving legislation). Death and disease related to tobacco use and
secondhand smoke exposure in Simcoe County is significant and action must be taken now. A
100% smoke-free bylaw will not take away the right to smoke. The bylaw will however, clear the air
in public places and workplaces to protect everyone's right to breathe without being exposed to
deadly toxins.
Political Responsibility
It has been made clear by the provincial government that smoke-free bylaws are the responsibility
of municipal governments. While we can continue to advocate for the provincial government to
amend the Tobacco Control Act to address this issue, there is no indication that the political will
exists to take any action in the foreseeable future. Clearly, under Section 213 of the Municipal Act,
municipal governments have the legislated authority to put restrictions in place regarding smoking
of tobacco in public places and workplaces and many municipalities in Ontario have done just that.
In the face of the knowledge that exposure to secondhand smoke endangers the health of the
public. municipalities who do not take action for which they have legislated powers, may find
themselves faced with lawsuits in the future.
Simcoe County Update
Attac....ed is an updated chart indicating the progress of bylaw development across Simcoe County.
To date Essa, Clearview and Orillia are to be congratulated for taking action and passing 100%
smoke-free bylaws to be effective May 31 and June 1, 2002. Unfortunately that leaves 15 municipal
counCi! yet to pass bylaws to be in place for May 31, 2002.
Both the opportunity and authority to protect residents, workers and visitors from the deadly health
effects of secondhand smoke rests at the municipal level. With only 10 weeks remaining until May
31, the time is now for strong and committed leadership on this serious public health issue.
Should you have any questions or require any additional information, please call Christine Bushey, Manager,
Chronic Disease Prevention Program at (705) 721-7330 at Ext. 376. Or bye-mail: bushey@simcoehealth.org.

Smoke-free Simcoe County
~;~oo()mic impact small
Concem about the economic impact on business as a result of no-smoking bylaws
is often raised. In fact research dating back as far as the early 1990s in the United
~~!,c:sand Canada shows there is no long-term impact on business.
By adopting a uniform 100% smoke-free bylaw in all Simcoe County
municipalities including the cites of Barrie and Orillia, businesses can be assured
pfa leyelplaying field when the bylaw is implemented.

What the research says
~ The City of Ottawa hired KPMG Chartered Accountants to provide an unbiased
third-party overview of the economic impact of no-smoking legislation enacted
August 01,2001. It is using retail sales tax returns to measure sales changes in
conjunction with the general economic trends, tourism trends and the
"September 11 effect" on sales. Its' first quarter findings in December 2001 show:
· Employment in the Ottawa accommodation and food service sector appears to have risen 6.5%
from June to October, despite a decline in total employment of 3.1 %.
· Employment insurance claims in the accommodation and food service industries declined by
9% in October over a year previous.
· Bankruptcy and insolvency statistics for restaurants are lower for the period August to
November than they have beenfor the past two years.
· Under the tavern/bar/nightclub category, two operations underwent insolvency procedures in
2001 versus 1 in 2000 and 2 in 1999.
~ A Conference Board of Canada 1996 study of restaurants showed 80% of the
businesses studied experienced successful conversion to a smoke-free
environment, increased customer and employee satisfaction, and attracted new
customers.
~ In 2001 researchers at the University of Quebec examined actual and perceived
costs of workplace and restaurant smoke-free bylaws and concluded that although
firms and restaurants perceived high costs associated with strict bylaws, actual
direct and indirect costs were found to be minimal.
~ A study conducted in California in 2000 shows support for smoke-free bars has
increased by 24% since the statewide ban on smoking in bars and restaurants was
enacted. In addition 73% of bar patrons reported approval for the legislation.

Lan~e maioritv of patrons would continue to go to smoke-free bars, bingo halls
SIMCOE COUNTY - A survey of Simcoe County residents 18 years of age and older shows as many
as 93 per cent would patronize bingo halls, bars, restaurants and bowling alleys more often or as
frequently if these establishments were 100 per cent smoke free.
The findings come from an ongoing survey of the health knowledge, attitudes and behaviours of Simcoe
County adults being conducted by York University on behalf of the health unit. The survey launched in
January 2001 is being used to identify emerging health issues, track the changes in local residents'
health over time and measure the impact of health unit programs and services.
Residents surveyed were asked: "If the following places were 100 per cent smoke free would you go to
them more often, less often or would it make no difference." The question was asked for each of
bowling alleys, bingo halls, bars and restaurants. The overwhelming majority in each category identified
they would go more often or their frequency would not change.
The responses by establishment were as follows:
. Bingo halls - 93% would go more often or it would make no difference.
. Bowling alleys - 93% would go more often or it would make no difference.
. Bars/taverns/pubs -80% would go more often or it would make no difference.
. Restaurants - 88% would go more often or it would make no difference.
"We are not at all surprised by the survey results," said Vito Chiefari, the health unit's tobacco program
co-ordinator. "They mirror the reality experienced in other jurisdictions that have gone 100% smoke
free. The economic hardship argument has always been based on perception not on facts. The bottom
line is that most people recognize that secondhand smoke is a health hazard and they accept that bylaws
are needed to protect the health of patrons and employees alike."
Christine Bushey, the health unit's manager of chronic disease prevention is urging the municipalities
that haven't passed 100% smoke-free bylaws yet to consider these survey results in their development
process. "We have said all along that secondhand smoke is first and foremost a health issue. Hopefully
reinforcement of the fact there is no economic impact when bylaws are in place will help our local
councils focus on this the real issue - health."

The smoke free bylaw questions are part ofthe Rapid Risk Factor Surveillance System survey, a
monthly random telephone survey being conducted in 14 areas of the province. The survey questions
focus on lifestyle behaviours and attitudes and range fTom smoking and drinking to use of car seats and
bike helmets, immunization and food access.
The survey results are considered an accurate representation of the attitudes of the Simcoe County adult
population with a 95 per cent confidence interval.

Designated Smoking Rooms!
Ventilation Systems
There is no safe level of exposure to secondhand smoke
Designated smoking rooms (DSR) and ventilation systems do not protect
people's health. Studies show that non-smoking food service workers who work
in establishments where smoking is allowed are at a 50% higher risk of
developing lung cancer than other non-smokers. A separately enclosed DSR
does not protect anyone; children, the workers and adults who enter these
rooms remain affected by the dangers of secondhand smoke.
A Designated Smoking Room (USR)
Can be defined as a separately enclosed smoking room that is serviced by its
own ventilation system, separate from the one in use by the smoke free portion
of an establishment. A DSR must be 100% exhausted to the outdoors. The
design of the ventilation system must be such that no secondhand smoke is
permitted to flow out of the room into the smoke free environment, even as
clients and severs enter and exit the DSR.
Few businesses oPt for DSR
Designated smoking rooms are allowed under some no-smoking bylaws in
effect in Ontario. Typically the size of a DSR allowed is a small percentage of
the floor space. In Toronto, Peel and York regions and Peterborough where
the option exists, very few - less than 5 % - of businesses have opted to
construct a DSR due to cost and ongoing maintenance requirements.
An engineering report from the City of Ottawa estimates that the cost to build a
medium sized DSR (20 people) would be $70,000 with annual maintenance
costs of about $3,000. A large DSR (40 people) would cost $110,000 to build
with an annual maintenance of $5,500.
NO level playing field
Inclusion of a DSR option in a municipal no-smoking bylaw usually favors large
prosperous businesses over small businesses because the cost to build a DSR or
the location/layout of a smaller space is often prohibitive to small business
owners.
over (.-
10 oI).~ .
Ventilation Systems
There has been discussion that there is some form of a ventilation system available
that would completely remove secondhand smoke. Therefore, smokers and non-
smokers could be in the same room and non-smokers would be protected if a
designated smoking area (DSA) were established. To date no level of government
in Canada has approved any ventilation system for the complete removal of the
toxins in secondhand smoke. Research from British Columbia concludes that there
is currently no credible scientific evidence that there is a safe level of exposure to
secondhand smoke and that general ventilation systems are not a solution because:
· They only filter out a small portion of the contaminants found in secondhand
smoke,
· Theyre-circulate still contaminated air back into the workplace, and
· Workers continue to be exposed to the hazardous substances in secondhand
smoke before the ventilation removes it.

The dangers of secondhand smoke exposure are not eliminated
through DSR's or ventilation. 100% smoking bans remain the
only viable control measure to ensure that workers and patrons
of the hospitality industry are protected from exposure to the
toxic wastes from tobacco combustion.

RE: PROPOSED "NEWS & EVENTS" NOTICE BOARDS
I am writing on behalf of the Horseshoe Valley Property Owners' Association to request
permission to erected, one "News & EventsH notice board at each of the mailbox
locations listed below and as illustrated in the a1tached documents indicated as
"Preliminaryu: final design will be determined through consultation and confirmation of
material costs. All labour has been offered free of charge.
1 . corner of Highlands Drive and the 4th line
2. corner of Highlands Drive and the 3rd line
3. corner of Alpine Way and 4th line
4. Birch Grove across from the 9th hole
5. Pine Ridge Trail
These boards would be available to display notices by any resident in the immediate
Horseshoe Valley area, subject to review by a person or persons chosen to monitor
and maintain these, and would not be restricted solely for use by H.V.P.O.A. Members.
As notices being taped to the fronts of the mail boxes ore unsightly and possibly not
even considered legal by Canada Post. we are of the opinion that the provision and
maintenance of properly-designed structures would be 0 visual as well os a convenient
asset to the community.
Your review, consideration and subsequent approval of this proposal would be
appreciated. I am available to meet with you at your 90nvenience and may be

Dear Mayor Beard:
As you are no doubt aware, the new Ontario"'Bi~2;9i.liJy;_Act requires that municipalities with a
population in excess of 1 0,000 form a Municipal Advisor{eommittee for Disabled Persons.
On June the 19th, 2002 the City of Kawartha Lakes Municipal Advisory Committee for Disabled
Persons, which has been a standing committee of council for eleven years, is planning on holding a
day-long seminar to bring together municipalities who already have advisory committees and those
who are required to form one. The focus of this seminar will be the exchange of ideas and
experience. This would not only benefit the beginners but would also allow the existing municipalities
to learn from each other.
We will be making every effort to have the Hon. Cam Jackson, Minister of Citizenship and
People with Disabilities attend as keynote speaker. We have set a price of $35.00 per person which
includes a buffet lunch. Should you plan to attend please complete the attached questionnaire and
return in the stamped addressed envelope no later than April 24th. Please note that space is limited.
We hope that you will take part in this seminar and benefit from it.
Yours truly,
J a'

Dear Prospective Participant,
Given the fact that the new Ontario Disability Act requires that municipalities with a population in
excess of 10,000 are required to form a Municipal Advisory Committee for Disabled Persons,
the City of Kawartha Lakes Municipal Advisory Committee for Disabled Persons wishes to host
a seminar to bring together municipalities who already have Advisory Committees and those
who are required to form one.
The focus of the seminar will be the exchange of ideas and experiences. As well, it should be of
great benefit to beginners who are in the throes of putting together their Terms of Reference.
I am proud of our Municipal Advisory Committee for Disabled Persons for taking the initiative for
this seminar and accordingly, welcome you to the City of Kawartha Lakes for what I consider to
be a very worthwhile day.
I trus: :hat everyone can benefit from such a meeting and trust that the experience will be
wortr.vnlle.
Yours truly,

Dear Head of Council:
Emergency Preparedness Week runs this year horn May 6-12,2002, and I would like to
encourage your community to participate in this important event.
Public safety has always been a priority for our government, but in the wake of September
11 th, a renewed appreciation for the importance of emergency management has emerged.
Communities across Canada are becoming more diligent about national security. Ontario is
one of the safest places in the world to live, work and raise a family, and with this in mind
the importance of becoming involved in Emergency Preparedness Week cannot be
overstated.
During (EP Week), communities across Ontario and Canada will participate in activities to
increase awareness of emergency management. This year's EP Week theme is "Keeping
Canada Safe." This message builds upon the idea that we do live in a safe nation, and
Ontario residents can be assured that the provincial government, through Emergency
Measures Ontario and numerous agencies, is working to ensure public safety.
To make EP Week a success in your community, it's important to get the support of key
community groups including your local first responders - fire, police and ambulance - as
well as schools and local media. Encouraging partnerships between private businesses and
community groups can also help get the EP Week message out to the general public.
My ministry will mark Emergency Preparedness Week by giving Certificates of
Achievement to those communities that have reached one of the three achievement levels of
emergency management in the Partnerships Toward Safer Communities Program. This
initiative is designed to improve public safety in Ontario. It promotes joint
community/industry prevention, preparedness, response and recovery at the community
level to deal with emergency situations involving hazardous materials.

~,
The activities undertaken in your community do not need to be time or labour intensive.
Choose events to best promote the week according to your resources, and if you have other
ideas about promoting preparedness activities, by an means try them out.
To assist in the launch of 2002 Emergency Preparedness Week in your community, a
special resource kit has been assembled. It includes:
· Emergency Preparedness Week 2002 poster;
· A Natural Hazards Poster;
· A sample news release;
· Local promotional ideas for Emergency Preparedness Week 2002
· A set of brochures, including Be Prepared Not Scared and other self-help advice
infonnation, an order fonn to request copies; and
. Web addresses where you can access:
· Backgrounders on emergency management in Ontario at
www.solidtorgenera1.msg.gov.on.calenglish/public/emo.html; and
· A link to National Emergency Preparedness Week events at
www.emergencypreparednessweek.ca
Emergency management is everyone's responsibility. I believe by participating in some of
the suggested EP Week activities, communities can improve public awareness about the
importance of emergency preparedness. I hope your comnltmity will participate in
Emergency Preparedness Week and that it proves to be a successful and enjoyable
expenence.

Emergency Preparedness Week 2002
National Emergency Preparedness Week is
held each year early May, and this year runs
from May 6 - 12, 2002.
During Emergency Preparedness Week,
many communities in all provinces and
territories will be participating in activities
aimed at increasing awareness of emergency
management nationwide.
The theme for Emergency Preparedness
Week 2002 is: "Keeping Canada Safe."
To make Emergency Preparedness Week
2002 a success in your community, it is
important to involve some key groups. The
support of local fire, police and ambulance,
as well as schools, hospitals and local
media, is important. Encouraging
partnerships, for example, between business
and community groups, is another way of
getting the Emergency Preparedness Week
message out. Establishing community
working groups, or Emergency Preparedness
representatives from these areas, will
facilitate the planning and implementation
of activities.
Although Emergency Preparedness Week is
a few months away, the activities in your
communities do not need to be time or
labour intensive. Choose events that you
feel will best promote the week, according
to the resources available. You need not
caITY out all the activities listed here to have
a successful Emergency Preparedness Week.
If you have other ideas about promoting
preparedness activities, by all means try
them out!
Emergency Preparedness Week is an ideal
opportunity for your community to take
proactive steps toward ensuring an increased
level of awareness, and overall, a heightened
appreciation for the safety and well being of
Canadians everywhere.

TOWNSHIP OF ORO-MEDONTE
Box 100
Oro, Ontario
LOL 2XO
ATTENTION: THE ACTING MAYOR & COUNCIL
To Whom It May Concern:
I would like to forward this letter to council regarding the foUowing issues. The Guthrie School Reunion
committee is in the process of booking facilities and organizing activities for the Reunion scheduled for
July 12,2003. The committee would like to organize events during the day at Guthrie School and the Oro-
Medonte Arena and the Lions ban fields during the evening. The organizing of events requires the booking
of facilities as a first step. To this date the school facilities have been booked and are provided free of
charge. The Oro Lions Club has agreed to book the Arena and operate the proposed event. The nature of
the proposed event at the Arena paraUels a former Octoberfest that was run for a number of years by the
Oro Lions Club.
The committee's request relates to the need for Council to grant approvals as designated in the policies and
for other policy clarifications. The majority of individuals who are expected to attend this reunion are
former residents or life long residents of Oro-Medonte, who helped raUy the community and were directly
involved in fundraising, planning and personal donations to enable the community to build a new arena
when the former one was condemned. Many are also members of community sports teams and continue to
take leadership in volunteer activities through out the Township. Policies do not appear to fuUy anticipate
an event at the Arena or Lion's baJJpark and we are requesting Council to take whatever measures are
required to enable this event to be planned thoroughly and weH in advance.
Section 2-Alcohol Risk Management: Does not include the lower level of the Arena and it is necessary
For a resolution from Council to designate the area for this event.
The Ball Diamond Allocation Policy: It appears that a motion of Council or some other measure may be
necessary to enable the booking of the baU diamonds far enough in advance for this event.
Considering that this is a community event and aU proceeds from the Oro Lions Club go back into the
community the Guthrie School Reunion Committee is requesting the foHowing recommendations to
Council:
1. That Council designates the floor area of the Arena for alcohol use under the authority of a special
occasion permit for July 12,2003.
2. That Council determine the rental fee for the lower arena floor area be a total of $300.00 which
includes setup on the previous day, setup during the day and use for reunion activities during the
evening of July 12,2003 and take down and cleanup on the following day.
3. That Council makes provisions to enable the Ball Diamonds to be booked for this event at this time.
It is very important to our committee to have a reply at your earliest convenience to enable our planning to
proceed.
Thank you,
Debbie Whalen-Barnett

Proposed Official Plan & Zoning Bylaw Amendment
In Attendance: Cheryl Shindruk, Applicant's Planning Consultant, Brian and
Andrea Davidson, Applicants
11b) Z.
Ms. Leigh provided an update on the status of this application and explained that
the applicant's had now made formal Official Plan and Zoning By-law
Amendment applications for a residential condominium (adult lifestyle
community) and 18-hole golf course. She indicated that for the past year the
applicant's had been completing the technical studies required in accordance
with the Official Plan policies and that the applicant's consultant would be
providing an update of the results of those studies and then presenting the
studies to the Municipality for review. Ms. Leigh indicated that once the
Municipality completed those reviews a further planning report would be
prepared and presented to the Planning Advisory Committee with further
recommendations.
Ms. Shindruk, the applicant's consultant, explained the work that had been
completed over the past year. She explained the technical studies that had been
completed and were in the process of being presented to the Municipality for
review. These included a Traffic Impact Study, an Environmental Impact
Assessment, a Hydrogeological Study, a Storm Water Management
Assessment, a financial impact assessment and a marketing review as required
by the Official Plan. She explained that the studies generally supported the
development being proposed.
Ms. Shindruk explained that the application proposed approximately 300
residential units and an 18-hole executive golf course. The residential units
would be mixed between detached units (200) and semi-detached units (100)
and a retirement home was also proposed in the long term. The proposal was to
be serviced by well and communal septic. The Committee was provided a copy
of a conceptual plan, which identified the proposed road configuration, the
location of the residential units, the location of the golf course, and the related
fa ci I ities/uti lities.
The Committee discussed the location of the storm water management and
communal sewage facilities, the use of lake water for irrigation purposes, the
involvement of Lake Simcoe Regional Conservation Authority, and the potential
for phasing of the development.
Moved by Peter Wigham, seconded by Susan Grant
"It is recommended that the proposed Official Plan Amendment and Zoning By-
law Amendment for Development Application P-115/01 (Ucci), Concession 5,
Part of Lots 26 to 28 (Oro), be deferred until all studies as required in
accordance with the Official Plan policies are received and reviewed for a further
planning report and recommendation to the Planning Advisory Committee."

7:10 p.m.
Jonathan and Yanda Palter
Concession 5, North Part of Lot 3 (Oro)
Proposed Official Plan Amendment
P-127/01
In Attendance: Jonathan Palter, Applicant
Ms. Leigh explained the proposed Official Plan Amendment that was intended to
site specifically designate this property to permit five residential severances to
occur. She explained that this property was outside of the Horseshoe Resort
Settlement node and that it would be premature to consider this application
before the Oro Moraine Strategy was completed and the 5-year Official Plan
review was underway.
Mr. Palter explained that the property was currently wooded and that the
development of five 7 -acre residential lots would maintain the natural character
of this area. He indicated that the area was already well developed across the
road and that leaving the lot as one 36-acre building lot did not make sense.
The Committee asked the applicant about the servicing of the lots and if he
believed this would affect the wooded nature of the property. Mr. Palter
indicated that he wished to connect to the existing water system depending on
the cost and that with the large lot sizes the number of trees removed for the
septic and building would be minimal.
Moved by Bob Barlow, seconded by Fran Sutton
"It is recommended to Council that Development Application P-127/01 for
Jonathan and Vanda Palter, a proposed Official Plan Amendment for
Concession 5, North Part of Lot 3 (Oro), to permit five rural residential lots
by consent be deferred pending completion of the Oro Moraine Land Use
Strategy and the 5 year Official Plan review in 2002."
... Defeated.
Moved by Don Bell, seconded by Peter Wig ham
"It is recommended to Council that Development Application P-127/01 for
Jonathan and Vanda Palter, a proposed Official Plan Amendment for
Concession 5, North Part of Lot 3 (Oro), to permit five rural residential lots
by consent be denied as the application does not conform with the intent
of the Official Plan policies and does not represent good planning."
...Carried.

7:20 p.m.
Paul Miller
Concession 10, Part of Lot 20 (Oro)
Proposed Official Plan Amendment
P-132/02
In Attendance: No One
Ms. Leigh explained that this application required additional work to be
completed before a formal deputation before the Planning Advisory Committee
should be considered. She explained that additional clarification was required in
regards to the need for a County Official Plan Amendment and the studies that
the County would require. Ms. Leigh stated that she intended to discuss the
matter with the County and then provide a response to the applicant in regards
to the additional materials that would be required to consider their application.
She stated that this application would be consolidated into the Official Plan
review for consideration but that the applicant would be required to provide
technical information to support the rationale for considering such an
amendment.
Moved by Don Bell, seconded by Susan Grant
"It is recommended that Development Application P-132/02 a proposed Official
Plan Amendment be deferred until:
(a) a determination is made on the need for an Amendment to the County
Official Plan;
(b) the required technical studies are completed and reviewed by the County;
(c) the required technical studies are completed and review by the Township;
and further that this application be reviewed in conjunction with the 5 year Official
Plan review."
