Dear Jennifer We spoke together on Saturday at the meeting concerning the neighbourhood park being considered for the corner of Pods Lane in the Highlands of Horseshoe. r would like to be able to speak in favour of the park at the Council meeting on August 14th. Is that still possible? r could make my comments very brief - even copy you with them if you would like before I speak. r do think the pro side needs to be heard by Council since the con side is very loud. r believe that the whole community will benefit from having a neighbourhood park. It would beautify the corner and provide a meeting place for all ages. People, young and old, would get to know each other better and, as a result, our community would be a warmer and safer place to live. r hope to hear from you.

(;lcd3. 11 \ ~~ 1{f~/o~ ' U M 4b). Your worship, councilors: I'm Lise Hansen. Last summer my husband and I built a house at 27 Alpine Way, kitty comer but one to the proposed playground. My many grandchildren and their friends enjoy an active life with us at our house and in the area. Although children are a large and happy part of my life and much as I would love a playground for them, I am opposed to the development of a playground at Pods and Alpine for many reasons. Let me tell you about just one of those reasons. I fear that the proposed changes will cause flooding on my property. My lot and my neighbours' lot share an easement containing a swail in which the water from the golf course and beyond drains to the ditch at the front of my land. The storm last month in which 5" of water fell, produced a rapidly flowing stream which was 4 to 5 feet across and flowed for several hours in the swail next to my house. Two summers ago a storm filled my neighbours' back yard with water creating a temporary pond. They feared their basement might flood but it didn't because the water eventually drained into the swail and ditch. At the firehall meeting, Ms Zielaniewski flippantly talked about "the once in 100 year storm" that we residents fear. The examples which I have cited give ample proof that storms produce great amounts of run-off regularly in our area. We were told at that meeting that a 700mm storm pipe has been budgeted and will be installed on the proposed playground property to carry run-off. There are currently eight ditches that converge onto that property, including two pipes that are larger than 700 mm and one slightly smaller. Six of the ditches carry great amounts of water and sand from Alpine Way, Pods Lane and Nordic Trail, as well as from my land. Surely, reason would dictate that one 700 mm pipe cannot carry the combined run-off from all of these sources. In addition to this, the sandy soil that is presently in the swail on the proposed playground property is able to discharge some of the run-off into the ground and does not get plugged with sand as a pipe would. I can't imagine that an engineer would approve the changes that Ms Zielaniewski is proposing. Please tell us what engineer has been consulted? So far, the swail and ditch have been able to discharge the water from my land and my neighbours' but I fear that a blockage anywhere along the way will create a flood in my house. The place for a playground is at the fire hall and opp site. I and my family can walk, bike or drive to that location with ease as can anyone in my neighbourhood. If any of this needs clarification, I'll be happy to show you the water flow on the site plan. dl/~ . .. "" .. \ fi2v'J . /1-/ ~/!J- flf. ;fl'). MR MAYOR, COUNCIL MEMBERS, LADIES AND GENTELMEN, MY NAME IS SOREN SKAFTE, I LIVE AT 16 CHESTNUT LANE IN THE HORSESHOE HIGHLANDS. I THANK YOU FOR ALLOWING ME TO PRESENT MY VIEWS ON THE PROPOSED NEIGBOURHOOD PLAYGROUND AT ALPINE WAY AND PODS LANE. FIRST I WOULD LIKE TO ADDRESS THE QUESTION OF WEATHER THERE IS A REAL NEED FOR THIS NEIGBOURHOOD PLA YGROUND OR NOT. THE HOMES IN OUR AREA ARE BUILD ON 100 FOOT LOTS PROVIDING AMBLE SPACE FOR SMALL CHILDREN TO PLAY SAFELY AT HOME UNDER PARENTAL SUPERVISSION. WE HAVE BEEN INFORMED THAT THE PURPOSE OF THIS PLA YGROUND IS FOR THE PARENTS TO MEIliT AND TALK WHILE THEIR CHILDREN PLAY. - THE HOMES IN OUR NEIGBOURHOOD ALL HA VE YARDS AS BIG AS THE PROPOSED PLAYGROUND. I SUGGEST THE FEW RESIDENTS THAT WOULD ACTUALL Y BE USING THIS FACILITY COULD MAKE USE OF THEIR OWN YARDS FOR THIS PORPOSE. MANY OF THE PROPONANTS ALREADY HAVE SWING SETS AND PLA Y EQUIPMENT INSTALLED IN THEIR BACK YARDS. AT THE WEDNESDAY INFORMATION METING A QUESTION WAS RAISED IN REGARDS TO CRITERIAS USED FOR THE NEEDS ASSESSMENT. THE RESPONSE OR LACK THEREOF LEFT US WITH THE IMPRESSION THAT A PROPER ASSESSMENT WAS NEVER DONE. - THE ONTARIO AVERAGE OF 2.5 CHILDREN PER HOUSEHOLD WAS MENTIONED BY MR CARTER. - THIS RATIO, IF USED, WOULD OBVIOUSL Y NOT APPLY OUR NEIGBOURHOOD. , , WHAT I AM TRYING TO CONVEY TO YOU IS - WE ARE NOT LIVING IN DOWN TOWN ROW HOUSING, AND WE ARE NOT LIVING IN A CITY HIGH RISE COMMUNITY SURROUNDED BY ASHFALT VOID OF ANY GREEN SPACE. ALL THE FAMILIES IN OUR AREA OWN AN ABUNDANCE OF GREEN SPACE FOR THEIR PERSONAL USE AND THEREFORE THERE IS NO ACUTE NEED FOR SUCH A PLAYGROUND IN OUR AREA. LET ME NOW ADDRESS ISSUES THAT HAVE COME TO MY ATTENTION WHILE ATTENDING THE INFORMATION MEETING LAST WEDNESDAY AND FROM CONVERSATIONS WITH MY NEIGBOURS. IN THE CITY PLANS FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF OUR AREA THE PROPOSED SITE HAS BEEN LABELED NOT SUITABLE FOR PARK DEVELOPMENT. THAT IN MY OPINION SHOULD HA VE KILLED THIS PROJECT BEFORE IT WAS EVEN STARTED. THE PLANS FOR THE PLAYGROUND DOES NOT ADDRESS THE ISSUE OF PARKING. PARKED CARS ON THE STREET WILL PRESENT A HAZARD TO THE CHILDREN CROSSING THE STREETS. THE SAFETY OF THE CHILDREN IN OUR AREA SHOULD BE OUR MAIN CONSERN. THE PROPONANTS OF THIS PROJECT WILL TELL YOU THAT THEY PLAN TO WALK TO THE AREA. BUT SINCE THE PARENTS DRIVE THEIR CHILDREN TO AND FROM THE SCHOOL BUSSTOP ON THAT VERY CORNER. IT DOES NOT SEEM LIKEL Y THAT THEY WILL BE WALKING TO THE PLA YGROUND. THE PROPOSED PLA YGROUND WILL BE A PUBLIC FACILITY AND MUST THEREFORE HA VE WHEEL CHAIR ACCESS. A SUITABLE HARD SURFACE ENTRY PATH WOULD BE REQUIRED THUS RAISING THE PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT COSTS. , , . THE PROPOSED PLA YGROUND WILL HAVE NO WASHROOM FACILITIES, THIS COULD RESULT IN UNSANITARY CONDITIONS AT THE SITE. SMALL CHILDREN DO HAVE TO RELIEVE THEMSELVES F AIRL Y OFTEN. THIS WOULD NOT PRESENT A PROBLEM IF THEY WERE PLAYING AT HOME WHERE THEY WOULD BE CLOSE TO A WASHROOM. THE PROPOSED PLAN FOR THE PLAYGROUND SHOWS A SMALL SECLUDED CLEARING IN THE BUSH. THIS IS TO MAKE THE PLA YGROUND BLEND INTO THE NEIGHBOURHOOD AND AVOID CREATING AN EYESORE. THAT IS VERY RECOMMENDABLE AND NECESSARY. BUT IT WILL OPEN THE DOOR TO SOME SERIOUS POTENTIAL PROBLEMS. VANDALISM - IT IS EASIER TO V ANDALIZE THINGS IN AN AREA WHERE YOU CANNOT BE SEEN. AND YES, WE DO HAVE PROBLEMS IN OUR AREA. JUST ASK THE HORSESHOE RESORT MANAGEMENT. THERE HAVE BEEN QUITE A FEW INSIDENTS OF DAMAGE DONE TO THE RECREA TIONAL FACILITIES BOTH IN THE VALLEY AND AT THE HIGHLANDS GOLF COURSE. ILLEGAL USE - THIS PLAYGROUND VOULD PROVIDE A VENUE FOR YOUNG ADOLESSANTS TO ENGAGE IN INPROPER ACTIVITIES AFTER HOURS. GIVEN THE OPORTUNITY AND A SUITABLE VENUE, MOST TEENAGERS WILL EXPERIMENT WITH SMOKING, USE OF ALCOHOL, ILLEGAL DRUGS AND OTHER INAPPROPRIATE ACTIVITIES. I WOULD PREFER NOT TO CREATE A PUBLIC PLACE IN THE CENTER OF OUR NEIGBOURHOOD THAT COULD BE USED FOR SUCH PURPOSES. SAFETY ISSUE - YOUNG CHILDRE PLA YING ALONE OR UNSUPERVISED COULD BE EXPOSED TO SEXUAL PREDATORS IN SUCH A SHELTERED AREA. 'c I RESPECTFULLY SUPMIT, THAT IN MY OPINION, THE PROPOSAL PRESENTED TO THE RA TEP AYERS LAST WEEK WAS VERY BIASED. THE TOWNSHIP STAFF WHOM I EXPECTED TO ACT UNBIASED IN THIS MATTER WERE DOING A REAL HARD PROMOTION ON THIS PROJECT. THE BUDGET SEAMED OVERLY OPTIMISTIC AND THE SUGGESTED $ 20.000 DID NOT COME EVEN CLOSE TO THE $ 50.000 ESTIMATE ESTABLISHED AT THE FINANCIAL SUB- COMMITTEE MEATING. THE COST OF DEVELOPING THE SITE AND INSTALLING THE EQUIPMENT COULD EASILY EXEED THE PROPOSED BUDGET. AND THERE WAS NO MENTION OF THE COST TO INSPECT, TO CLEAN AND TO MAKE REPAIRS AT THE SITE ON A REGULAR BASIS ONCE THE PLA YGROUND IS ESTABLISHED. MAINTAINING A FACILITY CAN OVER TIME BE A LOT MORE EXPENSIVE THAN THE INITIAL DEVELOPMENT COST. THE COMMlTTEE STATED THAT THE PARK WOULD SERVE CHILDREN UP TO THE AGE OF TWELVE. THAT AGE CLASIFICATION WAS TAKEN FROM THE USER MANUALS OF THE PROPOSED EQUIPMENT - THAT AGE CLASSIFICATION IS THERE TO INDICATE THE SIZE OF CHILDREN THAT CAN SAFELY USE THE EQUIPMENT WITHOUT BREAKING IT - AND IT DOES NOT REFLECT ON WHOM WILL ACTUALL Y BE INTERESTED IN USING THE EQUIPMENT. I SUGGEST THAT THE POTENTIAL NUMBER OF CHILDREN USING THIS PLAYGROUND WILL BE ONL Y A FRACTION OF THE 80 SUGGESTED. WHEN CHILDREN REACH SCHOOL AGE THEY WILL BE RELUCTANT TO USE A PRE-SCHOOL PLAYGROUND. THEREFORE THE PROPONENTS WOULD BE HARD PRESSED TO ACCOUNT FOR MORE THAN 25 CHILDREN IN OUR AREA THAT COULD POSSIBLY BENEFIT FROM THIS PLA YGROUND. " II THIS LEADS ME TO RAISE THE QUESTION" WILL THIS PLA YGROUND BE ESTABLISHED TO SERVE THE CHILDREN OR IS IT JUST GOING TO BE A CONVENIENT PLACE FOR A FEW PARENTS TO MEET WITH THEIR PRESCHOOLERS WHEN THE WEATHER PERMITS"? A SPECIAL RECREATIONAL ADVISORY COl\1MITTEE HELD A MEETING ON MAY 14 THIS YEAR. THE COMMITTEE VOTED TO RECOMMEND TO THE TOWNSHIP COUNSEL THAT THE PLAYGROUND SHOULD BE ESTABLISHED. WHAT CONSERNS ME IS, - THAT THE OPPOSING SIDE WAS NOT INVITED TO THIS MEETING. I SUGGEST THAT THE TOWNSHIP COUNCIL RECEIVED AND ACTED UPON RECOMMENDATIONS FROM ILL INFORMED STAFF MEMBERS AND A SMALL INTEREST GROUP THAT DO NOT REFLECT THE REAL DESIRES OF THE LARGE MAJORITY OF THE COMMUNITY. SURVEYS CONDUCTED IN THE NEIGBOURHOOD BY BOTH THE PROPONENTS AND THE OPONENTS INDICATES THAT A LARGE MAJORITY OF MORE THAN 75% ARE OPOSED TO THIS PLAYGROUND. THE INITIAL LIST PRESENTED BY THE PROPONENTS - IS SUPPOSED TO HAVE APPROX. 80 NAMES ON IT. BUT SINCE IT HAS BEEN LOST NOBODY REAL Y KNOWS FOR SURE- WHAT I DO KNOW IS TIIAT THE LIST WOULD HAVE INCLUDED NAMES OF HOMEOWNERS TIIAT HAVE LONG SINCE THEN CHANGED THEIR MINDS, AND JOINED THE OPPOSING SIDE, THUS FUTHER LIMITING THE NUMBER OF POSSIBLE PROPONANTS. IT HAS COME TO MY ATTENTION THAT, PLANS FOR A PROPOSED PLAYGROUND ON A PIECE OF PROPERTY SUITABLE FOR PARK DEVELOPMENT AT F AJRW A Y COURT, WAS HALTED AFTER A PARTITION OF OPPOSITION BEARING JUST 36 NAMES WERE PRESENTED TO THE TOWN COUNCIL. .. ~ .. , . I AM MOST CONSERNED THAT THIS ISSUE IS STILL UNDER DEBATE AFTER A PARTITION BEARING APPROXlMATEL Y 250 NAMES HAS BEEN PRESENTED TO THE TOWN HALL STAFF ASKING YOU TO CANCEL THE PLANS FOR THIS PLA YGROUND. WHICH INCIDENTALLY IS PLANNED ON PROPERTY DEMED UNSUITABLE FOR PARK DEVELOPMENT. I WOULD RECOMMEND THAT THE TOWNSHIP CONDUCT A FULL AND THOROUGH NEEDS ASSESMENT - WITH PROPER INPUT FROM OUR COMMUNITY - IN REGARDS TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF A RECREATIONAL FACILITY AT FOURTH LINE AND HORSESHOE VALLEY ROAD. SHOULD THE COMMUNITY BE IN FAVOUR OF SUCH A FACILITY, IT WOULD BETTER SERVE THE WHOLE CO:MMUNITY AND ITS MEMBERS OF ALL AGES. A RECREATIONAL FACILITY AT THAT LOCATION WILL BETTER ADDRESS CONSERNS SUCH AS PARKING, WASHROOM FACILITIES AND HAVING THE OPP STATION RIGHT THERE WOULD ACT AS A DETERRANT TO ANY UNLA WFULL ACTIVITIES. A NEIGBOURHOOD PLAYGROUND AT ALPINE WAY AND PODS LANE WOULD BE MOST INAPPROPRIATE SINCE IT WOULD CATER TO ONLY A VERY FEW HOUSEHOLDS AT THE EXPENCE OF THE WHOLE COMMUNITY. FOR THE REASONS I HAVE GNEN THIS MORNING AND CONSIDERING THE VERY LARGE OPPOSITION TO THIS PLAN. I RESPECTFULLY REQUEST THAT ANY FUTHER PLANS FOR THIS NEIGBOURHOOD PLAYGROUND BE DISCONTINUED NOW. TIIANK YOU. ~J. l.flelr:z- f\.i> tf~, Deputation to Council of Township of Oro-Medonte Aug 14, 2002 Councilors, Members of Staff, Ladies and Gentlemen, my name is Carlton Waddling and I reside at 51 Fairway Court in the community of Horseshoe Valley known as "The Highlands". Thank you for allowing me the opportunity to speak to you today. I am making this deputation in opposition to the application before you today because; I believe very strongly that there has been a serious break down in the process of determining the needs and wishes of the majority of our community. When forming your opinion regarding applications you would like to be able to rely on information supplied by your staff. You should be able to expect that the methods of gathering and verifying this information have been done in an unbiased and professional manner. I am afraid that from what I have seen, heard and been able to verify regarding key information and pivotal events, this council has been seriously mislead regarding both the technical and emotional aspects of the application. Reference has been made to a special Recreation Advisory Council meeting held on May 14, 2002 and emanating from this meeting was a recommendation to support the request [application] for the playground and we are being asked to believe that all parties have had input to the process before the recommendation was made. However, your staff invited to this meeting, only those people who did not oppose the application. I am sure that this council believes, as do I, that in any discussion each side must have the right to be heard and to challenge the claims of the opposition. I believe that prior to burdening you with a decision of this nature Parks and Recreation has an obligation to you and to the taxpayers of the Township, to ensure that there is a general agreement within the community. Therefore, any needs analysis must first consider the community and should contain at least the following criteria: 1. Within what type of community will this playground be developed? 2. How many homes are to serviced? 3. How many people live in the immediate area? 4. What are the demographics of the community? 5. What is the traffic flows? 6. Are there environmental concerns? 7. What type of private play equipment exists? 8. What is the average lot size? 9. How many families with children would use the facilities? 10. What is the average age of the children in the immediate area? 11. Is there any opposition to the proposal? , . Staff should have done this type of review in February it has not been done to date. On Aug ih, & 10th 2002,6 months after the application for the playground was made, the staff held an information meeting with this community. But even at this late date, the purpose of this meeting was not to get any measurable input or to even determine whether we wanted the playground. It was instead to inform us of the progress in developing the site. What was very clear from these meeting however, was that your staff never did a study of this area Parks and Recreation had no idea of the relevant numbers. When asked by an attendee at this meeting, how many children lived in the immediate area of the playground, the answer received was about 200. Parks and Recreation could not state the parameters to be set for such a park in determining the basis for making a recommendation to this council. All this after 6 months of research time has past. There was a large turn out both days and at least 80% of those in attendance demonstrated their opposition to the proposal. IS ANY BODY LISTENING!! The petition supplied by the Proponents to the playground was lost, and while I have no doubt that the petition was received, it has not been available for review, by any interested party. Therefore, no one can verify the authenticity of the names nor determine if the signatories were from the immediate area or a surrounding area. But make no mistake; the residents of this area defend the proponents' right to make this application. What the residents are telling you today and in months gone by is that this due diligence has not only, not been done in an unbiased professional manner, it simply has not been done. As I have said your staff has an obligation to conduct a complete professional and unbiased due diligence, in order to assess the worthiness of any application. But when the application is for a children's playground in a predominately adult area this obligation becomes doubly important. You wouldn't put a children"s playground in Big Cedar without considering the needs of the residents. So in February when an application to develop a playground within the area, of Pod's Lane and Alpine Way, in Horseshoe Valley was received, bells and whistles should have sounded in the Parks and Recreation Department. This did not happen The Township staff should have notified residents living in the immediate area of the application. This did not happen. The Township staff should have consulted with the residents of the area adjacent to the playground site. This did not happen. Residents did finally hear of the proposed park and they made deputations to council in February and April, but when a pivotal meeting with the Recreation Advisory Council was held on May 14, 2002 Your staff did not invite anyone from this group to speak for the opposition. On June 12, 2002 your staff presented to this council a report containing its criteria for developing its needs analysis. Not one of eleven critical points mentioned earlier where considered by the presenter. In developing its needs analysis your staff used Ontario guidelines that would be irrelevant in this case This type of assessment cannot be done by referring only to stats developed by the province or municipality. Le. 1 park per 2000 people. Does that make any sense if two thirds of the people are over 50 years old? Has this simply been a numbers exercise for Mr. Carter? There is overwhelming opposition to this playground in excess of 250 residents have said no with 80 that were apparently in favour however, we have no way of challenging the petition it was lost. Staff have ignored the wishes of a clear majority. The proponent's petition was lost in February. Why was there no attempt to have it done again in the intervening six months? Parks and Recreation master plan of 1997 says that this site has poor drainage and has NO Park potential. Your staff says that they deem this to be incorrect and with money you can fix it - This to serve 10% of the residents. There has in fact been an assumption that installing a 600 mm pipe to carry water through the property and dump it on the golf course will solve a water drainage problem. You are being asked decide on the development of a playground in the Highlands. You have heard from both sides of the argument, those against stating their concerns for safety, the ecology, the lack of consultation, the cost and simply bad advise from staff. Those in favour stating their need for a place to take their children to play. . In the end, and in light of the incomplete and flawed information that has been assembled by Parks and Recreation, and in light of the overwhelming opposition to the development of the playground in the Highlands area, I respectfully ask that you to reject the application before you today. You-) ~~ addling, CGA " Buying a house is a big decision. Buying a lot and building a home is even bigger, but the decision to buy a lot and build a home in a rural area is a momentous decision.

III~/z, /4'. f0. '~k ' f:, y~ - Mr. Deputy Mayor - Council My name is Norm Savill and I live at 27 Alpine Way in the Horseshoe Highlands. I would like to thank you for giving me the opportunity address you again. I truly regret the time and energy that this motion has taken. It is unbelievable to me that some worthy public requests to this council are rejected out of hand, while this park project brought forward by a handful of citizens and opposed by a huge number of citizens is aloud to linger on the table. I am, as you already know, against the park proposed for Alpine Way and Pod's Lane. I ask you to defeat the motion to develop a park at Alpine Way and Pod's Lane. I spent 37 years in various leadership roles with the Boy Scouts and Scouts Canada including major organizing roles in 4 National Jamborees and 3 International Jamborees including a role to administer a 2.5 million dollar budget to produce a program for 14,000 young people from across this country. I have also filled various roles within the Canadian Amateur Swimming Association including a role as president ofthe Barrie Trojans Swim Club at the time when they in association with the Barrie Minor Hockey Association raised the funds to build the Allendale Recreation Centre. I am also the father of 3 and grandfather of 8, and I engage in recreational activities with all of them on a regular basis. I tell you all this so you will know that I am no stranger to the needs of young people and that I do not oppose this park because I hate kids. You have been presented with environmental documentation that proves site M19 is a very poor site to be considered for playground development. You have ample documentation in staff reports and studies stating that M19 is not suitable for playground development. You have received dozens of letters from the community outlining our various objections to the development ofM19 as a playground. And you have on record a letter from the HVPOA requesting that any playground development in the area be at the 4th Line fire hall location. And today you have received many deputations. You have received a petition signed by hundreds of Horseshoe Valley area residents indicating they do not want a park at Alpine Way and Pod's Lane. But the proposal remains on the table. . ~ \ 2 8A V ILI-- f; oz. I fear that the environmental aspects of the development ofM19 and in particular the interference with the ground water recharge system has not been properly considered. I fear that the proposed development will produce a secluded area that would lend itself to harbouring any unsavory element that may be in our area and that the safety and security of our young people may be in jeopardy. I fear for the security and property values of the neighbouring homes. I fear that the development ofM19 is a far more costly project than the surface analysis has indicated. I fear that the democratic process has been subverted by the voices of a few proponents to the detriment of the many opponents. But most of all I fear that this is no longer about a park. Someone has decided that there will be a park and it doesn't seem to matter that the majority of the residents of the area are opposed. It's WRONG. We moved to Horseshoe Valley for the semi-rural- recreational lifestyle that we love. We engage in outdoor activities and we enjoy and jealously guard the environment around us. We did not envisage looking out our front door at playground equipment. As a matter-of-fact the covenants that attend our land purchases prohibit almost all kinds of visual pollution - we are prevented from having clotheslines, fences, flag poles, signage, trailer in our driveway and many other things. There is a place for a park/playground complex. It's a place that is accessible by all the residents of Horseshoe Valley. It is on the Fourth Line by the fire hall and police station. It's M21. The moment is here for reasoned thought. I ask you to defeat the motion for a park at Alpine Way and Pod's Land and to pass a motion to have staff immediately start an in- depth analysis of the needs of the Horseshoe Valley area residents. Thank you ~J. 1{(<t!OZ.. (If If b-). 19 Alpine Way, R.R. #1, Shanty Bay, ON DEPUTATION - August 14, 2002 Mayor Craig and Councillors When our children were growing up, we chose to live in Barrie. We chose a location that would accommodate THEIR needs. We took into consideration the location of the schools they would attend, the location of the neighbourhood playgrounds, the location of the library, the location of the churches, the location of the comer stores and plazas, the location of the arenas and the location of additional community recreation facilities. After living in Barrie for 32 years, we decided to relocate because the hustle, bustle and rapid development were not appealing. After much research, we chose to live in Horseshoe Highlands. It is a rural community with lots twice as wide as most Barrie lots, many trees and some open spaces, The community lacked sidewalks, comer stores and neighbourhood playgrounds. We chose this community because it lacked these amenities. We chose this community because it offers opportunities to bicycle, to hike, to ski, to golf. It offers opportunities to join the Valley Club at Horseshoe Resort to swim, to exercise, to play tennis and squash, One reason we particularly selected our lot on Alpine Way was that it was across from an area designated "open space" with no potential for development and no park potential. We are upset that the residents on Alpine Way, were not approached about this proposed playground when residents on other streets were. We feel the staff has been negligent in not ensuring that all residents in the vicinity of this project had been made aware of this proposal. It appears that the staff assumed the information would be distributed properly through The Valley Voice, We feel the Recreation Department has been negligent in not holding an information session at the beginning of this proposal to determine needs, to receive input and to avoid misunderstandings. We oppose a neighbourhood playground at Alpine Way and Pods Lane! ~~~ Elizabeth Pearce ~J. I+/O-V . /JP r0 To Deputation to the Mayor, Councilors and Committees, The Corporation of the Township 'ofOro-Medonte, Aug. 14,2002. From Gordon E Martyn M.D., F.R.C.S.(C), 17 Alpine Way, R.R.# 1, Shanty Bay On., LOL 2LO re Proposed park and alteration of water course at Pods Lane/Alpine Way, Lot MIS. I strongly oppose this proposal for environmental reasons. Two independent Geologists, have in their opinion, identified this location as a water recharge area containing at least two 'sink holes' with drainage below. This I know by multiple question and answer and present action, has not been a consideration for the council. However, I speak today for the record; that if such a proposal, or modification thereof, is passed by this council it shows their lack of concern for present and future environmental considerations. Changing a water recharge area to a surface ground water course is environmentally unconscionable regardless of the size and shows total disregard for the handling of water resources. Your vote is a public record and will demonstrate your position environmentally. Thank-you.

Logan has low 'aJJ..gneeds to work on his muscle strength, balance, and body awareness. Logan currently but is unable to go up and down stairs. Playground equipment offers an ideal setting to ',~ that Logan needs to acquire. It is very difficult while at home to get Logan motivated to hysical therapy.

The following notes relate to the report. a) The Airport Commission, June 30, 2002 Financial Statements depict that the airport is operating at approximately 50% ahead of its overall planned year-to-date, as evidenced by the attached report. Additionally fuel sales, which are currently, the airport's single largest revenue generator, are also ahead of plan by approximately 13%. b) To date, the Lake Simcoe Regional Airport is the only airport located in this region to maintain Canada Customs and Immigration Services, subsequent to the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks. Also, the LSRA remains as one of only a few airports in south central Ontario with the ability to accept both International passengers and commercial goods (freight). While the tragic events of last September have certainly had an impact on the aerospace industry and the world economy as a whole, the Lake Simcoe Regional Airport Commission maintains that this Customs ability will play an intricate role in the continued expansion of this facility. 1 Sb-J.. c) The Lake Simcoe Regional Airport was thriJIed to, once again, host Canada's National Air Demonstration Team, the Snowbirds, for their May visit to our region. Being selected by the Snowbirds to facilitate all ground and aircraft servicing for their precision flying is certainly a great responsibility, but also a great reward and compliment to the staff of the LSRA. d) As a result of the recent Council approved Purchase Offer as submitted by UKCAN II Incorporated, the Lake Simcoe Regional Airport Commission is confident that with the development of the proposed Commercial Hangar facilities, the airport wiB secure more anchor tenants and subsequent revenues. Assuming that such developments are successful, job creation can be anticipated as well as the various spin-off benefits to the local economy. This development proposal will alone, contribute approximately $15,000.00 annually to the airport's operating revenues while increasing other revenue generating vessels such as fuel sales, ramp fees, landing fees and concessions. It is also anticipated that this exciting development will be synergistic in nature for both the airport and our partnering municipalities. e) While the airport Commission has been proactive in developing new and innovative revenue generating sources for both operating and capital items, negotiations for capital funding from the Federal government have been active since February of this year. The Lake Simcoe Regional Airport and our partnering municipalities developed this facility under the auspicious of continuing financial support from both the Provincial and Federal levels of government. As such, the Commission feels confident that our request for capital funding will be considered upon favourable by the respondents, considering the regional leader role that our airport has assumed and its vital impact on the local economy. f) Pursuant to the 2001 capital upgrades to the airport's water system as mandated by the Province, the Lake Simcoe Regional Airport has recently received over $ I 2,000.00 in OST AR funding as submitted by the Township of Oro-Medonte. This funding has been allocated to the airport's capital water system upgrades account, in the anticipation of further mandatory upgrades as implemented the Ontario Drinking Water Standards. The attached information is for your perusaL Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact the undersigned at (705) 487-0999. Sincerely, Lake Simcoe Regional Airport Michael J.

ORO.MEDONTE TOWNSHIP Reference: Update Request Dear Mayor and Council: With reference to the above request, the foJJowing outlines the Chamber's progress, initiatives and current activities. The Directory The Chamber produced 8,000 copies of the Membership Listing & Buyer's Guide (Directory) in early June. A total of 6767 copies were mailed to the residents and businesses ofOro-Medonte, many of whom commended the Chamber on this attractive and most informative publication. Revenue generated by the Directory is in excess of $3500, which is a substantial difference compared to the last issue, which resulted in a deficit. Events The Chamber hosted its first annual golf tournament at Shanty Bay Golf & Country Club. This successful event was enjoyed by all participants and raised $540. Member Interaction A survey was sent to all members in June to enable the Chamber to focus our efforts on the needs and services deemed most valuable by our members. Newsletter This is now published quarterly with a new format. We have made it more interactive with advertising opportunities, keeping businesses in touch with news ITom the Ministry of Consumer and Business Services and the Ontario Chamber of Commerce. The newsletter, which ranked high in the membership survey, also features community exposure by highlighting news and issues within the township. .. .Ipg. 2 t-;) c - (J.... ~ Webshe The completion of our newly designed web site is coming to ftuition and will be funy functional by the end of August. There has been much interest in the service of providing web site links to member businesses through our site and we are anticipating a source of revenue generated by this new internet business directory. We will be offering simple web site design for those businesses needing a web site. This service will be supplied by a member business. Also, we will be introducing member to member discounts to encourage people to "Shop Oro-Medonte". Member Recruitment A new membership information and application package has been produced which clearly defines the functions of the chamber and outlines membership benefits. The Directory has helped generate inquiries for some new businesses interested in joining. To date we have 125 members compared with 68 this time last year. Attracting new members is a priority and although our efforts have not waned, we anticipate an increase in membership inquires once the summer vacation period concludes. Upcoming Events The Chamber has reserved a booth at the Oro Fair, September 13th & 14th to promote member businesses through exposure to the community. The fall meeting is tentatively scheduled for rrild October. The agenda and topics of discussion have yet to be finalized.

Our ratepayers are fortunate in the commitment of the individuals who fonn the firefighter protection team in the Township. ~ It has come to the attention of Council that there is a question looming with respect to Htwo_ hat1ers". Many rural communities, who are indebted to volunteers to fiB the complement of firefighter staff as Oro-Medonte is, would find it prohibitively expensive to replace these volunteers with fun-time firefighters. The expertise and leadership qua1ities currently present wou1d a1so be 10st if the Township were to Jose the volunteers currently in p1ace. For the above reasons, the Township ofOro-Medonte endorses AMO's position in support of Bill 30 which, if passed, wou1d not anow unions to discipEne, dec1ine membership, or refuse to provide representation to anyone of their members who is employed on a salaried basis by a fire department solely because the member also works as a volunteer firefighter.

You may be aware that the Community Task Force has been working hard on everyone's behalf for almost two years and has accomplished much. In order to sustain its efforts an Operating Budget and Recruitment Fund plan was developed. Our plan was to approach the Royal Victoria Hospital, the City of Barrie and the County of Simcoe for an equal share of the contribution. While we received positive responses from the RVH and the City you will see by the attached the County rejected our request. We are now extending our request to the four Townships in the physician catchment area and adjacent to the City of Barrie. In developing our request, we have divided our required resources originally requested from the County ($66,000) by the estimated population in each Township that receives primary patient care from this area. We would formally request that your Townships provide that Task Force with $10,000 for each year of a three-year commitment. Representatives from the Task Force would be pleased to meet with a Committee or Council as a whole to answer any specific question you may have. Thank you for your consideration, Qi R.

Last year we ran a very successful Terry Fox Run. Participants and volunteers enjoyed it and we raised over three thousand dollars. It was safely organized on scenic paved roads so that families with kids on bikes and wagons could be involved as well as serious runners. What I would like to suggest is that our committee organize the same run in Sugarbush (5 or 10 kilometres) on an Oro Medonte scale. Councillors could distribute pledge sheets (this would be the only work involved) and compete to see who could raise the most money for the fignt against cancer. If we go ahead with this and it proves successful, then in future we might consider Oro Medonte competing against adjacent municipalities.

Accredited since 1996, the health unit's superior planning and operating standards and their impact on public health in the county earned a four (4) year accreditation in 2000 - the highest possible rating awarded. We can all take pride in this accompJishment. Municipalities playa critical role in local pubJic health programming. Elected representatives are members of the Board of Health and municipalities share responsibility for public health funding along with the province. Provincial appointees to the Board of Health provide additional opportunities to reflect community needs in the decisions regarding public health programming in Simcoe County. The health unit also partners with many community groups, coalitions and agencies to promote healthy initiatives. These initiatives range from increasing community awareness of West Nile Virus and early childhood screening centres to promoting food label reading to improve healthy eating choices and teaming up with teachers and students to promote smoke- free living and road safety. Enclosed you will find copies of the Simcoe County District Health Unit 2001 Annual Report. We hope it wiI1 provide you and the members of your council with a sense of how public health is working with individuals, families and communities to prevent disease and injury and to promote and protect health.

The purpose of the proposal is to transform lakeside ports such as Detroit and Chicago into major shipping centres, increasing the competitive edge in international trade. This would entail considerable dredging operations affecting the entire Great Lakes watershed. Our municipality is very concerned over the potential detrimental and permanent impact on the water levels of Lake Huron, Georgian Bay and Severn Sound if a project of this magnitude is implemented. Enclosed is a copy of Council's resolution expressing its strong concern over the proposal. We respectfully request your support in this matter in order to protect the Severn Sound Watershed area.

When the Seaway was opened in 1959, Lake Huron and Georgian Bay water levels dropped 15 inches-per- menantly. What is now proposed would result in at least a similar with- drawal. The ultimate goal of the Corps' pro- posals (detailed on page 8) is to allow "Panamax" vessels to transit the entire system. These huge ships, which are already plying the waters from Lake Superior to Huron/Michigan, require channels that are 9 feet deeper and 30 ,he US Army Corps of Engineers has released a draft reconnaissance )ort recommending a fuJ] feasibility ldy be conducted on improving the eat Lakes navigation system. ,\J] five of the report's recommend- options could have severe conse- ences for Georgian Bay water lev- s, since all involve dredging annels that control outflow.

Story and photos appear on pages 4-5. feet wider than the current system. To date, the Corps' study, tasked by the US Congress, has been funded solely by the American government. Now, the Americans are asking Cana- da for funding to support a 5-year, $20 mil1ion "feasibility" study. The Corps has indicated that without Canadian funding they may proceed with the study, but wi]] only consider what could be done from Lake Supe- rior into the Lake St. Clair/Detroit River system. For Georgian Bay, the potential impacts of the Corps' proposals are huge. Channel dredging would exac- erbate the loss of water due to climate change (100 cm predicted in the next 20-30 years) and would result in sig- nificant loss of valuable wetlands as we]] as restrict access to many proper- ty owners. GBA and GBA Foundation actions to date 1. We immediately contacted our own advisors, reliable government sources and other NGOs to confirm impacts of the proposals. We then contacted our local MP Andy Mitchell and arranged a meeting in Ottawa with all the Canadian govern- ment agencies that have jurisdiction related to the proposals. We met with representatives from the Department of Foreign Affairs and International Trade (DFAIT), Environment Canada, Transport Canada, the Canadian Coast Guard, the Department of Fisheries Please see page 8.... -- - --- _.~._-_.~-~~-----~".._- US Army Corps 01 Engineers Reconnaissance Study Options 1. Replace the Weiland Canal and St Lawrence Seaway locks at current dimensions and allow movement of larger commercial lake vessels above the Weiland Canal by deepening con- necting channels and ports to 30 feet. 2. Perform the same modifications as aptian 1, plus construct deeper (35 ft) channels and wider locks in the Weiland Canal to allow larger com- mercial vessels to penetrate into Lake Ontario and increase the withdrawal rate from Lake Huron. 3. Build on option 2, plus replace por- lions of the Seaway with deeper chan- leis (35 ft) and wider locks. The Detroit River would be dredged up to 35 feet as well, allowing for larger for- 2ign vessels to enter Lakes Ontario and Erie. 4. Build on option 3, plus extensive dredging and drama1ic deepening of the entire S1. Clair/Detroit River sys- tem (which connects Lake Erie to Lake Huron). This option would allow larger foreign vessels access to Lakes Huron and Michigan. Under this option Ihe Corps would construct "compen- sating works" to prevent deeper chan- leis from causing increased water Dutflow. 5. Build upon option 4, plus deepen ~hannels in the S1. Mary's River and modify the depth of the river's 500 ocks. This option would grant larger oreign ships access to all of the Great .akes-S1. Lawrence River system. Seaway, continued from pg 1 and Oceans. This was the first time that some of these agencies knew about the impact of these proposals and the first time they were a)) together to learn about our con- cerns. 2. GBA sent letters to all government agencies (including the Corps of Engi- neers) expressing our concern and opposition to any deepening and widening of the Seaway channels without any control or mitigating structure at the outflow of Lake Huron. 3. Last fan GBA was asked to peer review the Internation Joint Commis- sion's Upper Lake Plan of Study. The JJC initia]]y accepted our suggestion to include Lake Huron outflows, but after September 11, they removed this com- ponent of the study to reduce the bud- get. GBA has now made it c1ear that with this proposal the budget has to be restored and Lake Huron outflows and mitigation added. 4. Jt is at the discretion of DF AlT to refer matters such as this to the JJCs Canadian Section. DC has now sched- uled a meeting with the Corps of Engineers and wil1 decide what action they want to take. 5.1-'-1 5. As a member of Great Lakes Unit- ed (GLU) and with links to other NGOs around the Great Lakes, we are informed of the actions others are tak- ing and wi11 present our concerns pub- licly at upcoming meetings and con- ferences. We will attend GLU's annual meeting in Chicago (June 7-9) and co-sponsor resolutions regarding the proposals. One resolution that we wi]] support is to ask both federal gov- ernments to request that IJC establish a bilateral Lake Huron Outflow Moni-:' toring Board. GBA win also present its concerns at the international con- ference "Managing Shared Waters" to be held in Hamilton in late June. 6. The depth and width of the St. Clair River at the outflow of Lake Huron detennines the amount of water that can drain out of Lake Huron. Dredging and sand removal has taken place there since early in the 1900s. GBA has obtained the profile of the river there, and it is currently twice the depth established by international agreement (see i]]ustration). We are questioning this discrepancy and ask- ing that mitigating measures be put in place to reduce the outflow. 7. GBA Foundation analyzed historic levels of all the Great Lakes.

First, the report declares that the Corps' "basic responsibili- ty...is to facilitate the movement of boats... by deepening, widening and straightening channels, by regulating water levels with dams, and by providing associated locks." Second, the report claims that "primary concerns among stakeholders were limita- tions on vessel drafts, restrictive channels and port depths, restrictive locks si2es.. .". So it comes at no surprise that the draft report concludes there is a "federal in1er- est" for going forward with a full feasibility study, estimated to cost $20 million. NWF believe it is time for the Corps to broaden its definition of who its cus10mers are and consider the interests of those that live, work, hunt, fish, boat, drink, and eat by, in and on the Great Lakes and St Lawrence River. From a public meeting in Odgensburg, New York, May 16: Opponents of expanding the St. Lawrence Seaway will try next week to put the issue on Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton's ra~ar screen. Applause and hoots of approval rippled through the 170-person crowd as speaker after speaker shot focused atlacks against wider, deeper channels, followed by occa- sional murmurs of derision as the federal offi. cials studying that possibility offered defense. Members of the...environmental group Save the River, many of them Thousand Island property owners who spoke of their families' long connections to the region, don't want the process to get [as far as a feasibility study.] "We don't want to wait for a feasibility study. We want to stop it now," Save The River co-founaer and Wellesley Island resident Johanna Lawrence said. Deeper, wider channels through the treach- erous Thousand Islands would destroy hundreds of miles of shoreline habitat, the river fishery, regional property values and tourism, critics said. Meanwhile, economic benefits would largely bypass the North Country in favor of enormous ports and industries in the Midwest, they argued. 1 Great Lakes United, in a letter to the project manager of the, Corps of Engi. neers, April 15: Proponents of these measures [channel deepening and widening] need to be reminded that earlier proposals were found to be both environmentally and economi- cally unacceptable and defeated for those reasons. We are concerned that the S1. Lawrence Seaway's already severe environmental impacts on the GL ecosystem will be com. pounded or magnified. These severe impacts have not been adequately eddressed to date since the opening of the Seaway in 1959. These environmental con- cerns include the basin-wide impacts of: 1. Exotic species introduction: The rate of exotic species introductions from the bal. last water of foreign ships will likely increase if more ships enter the basin. 2. Deepening channels mean increased fJow out of the basin: It is well documented that deepening channels will lower lake lev. els. For example, the IJC states in the 2000 report, Protection of the Waters at the Great Lakes, "The Detroit/St-Clair modifications accounted for a 40 cm decline in mean weter levels in Lake Michigan-Huron." 3. Shoreline hardening/habitat loss and/or modification: Shoreline hardening and habitat loss impacts a wide range of native species that use coastal wetlands for critical phases of their lifecycfe. 4. Increased discharge from ships: It is valid to assume that the rate of accidental spills and discharges from ships will likely increase if more ships enter the basin. M. Douglas, Lake Ontario Keeper (an environmental watchdog group): The Army Corps of Engineers are pushing through a study that is redundant, economi- cally and environmentally dangerous, and is against the will of the citizens most affected by changes to the St. Lawrence Seaway and Great Lakes... We have not seen enough debate in the Canadian politi- cal scene to justify a study of this magni- tude... We feel that the best plan for the Great Lakes is one that protects our natural resources for future generations-and the [Corps'] draft proposals are not consistent with these values.

Re: Saying No to Playground at AJpine Drive and Pod's Lane \\Then I wIOte to you on June 19th J :made the comment that I had hoped my letter of June 10111 would be my 1a$t on this subjec~ and yet here T am a third time. My let1er of June 19d' asked counci110 defer the ratityjng vote on the subject pJaygr.ound and direct staff to better define the site p1a.n and cost estimates. \Ve also suggested that council ask staff to create a small review panel ofresjdents representing both the proponents and opponents, Vv1th the hope that the two sides could somehow ar:rive at some common ground. CounciJ agreed with these requests ( the HVPOA thanks you),and the two month review period 1S now nearing an end. While a site pJan and budget willlike1y emerge ITom this process there is still no progress on the fundamental jssue of the two sides agreeing on a playground at AJpine and Pod's Lane. In fact the mood of the community bas worsened over the two months. The opposition to Pod's Lane has become more broad based and more vocat and we are now faced with two petitions. Petition One wa..o; raised by the opponents of Pod's Lane and contains the names of237 residents who do not want a playground at that Jocation, but support one being built at the Fire Hall location Gftne 237 people? 187 res1de in the llighlands and 50 are nom other parts of the community. Petition Two originated in Catbedral Pines and contains the names of 47 residents_ Their preference is for a recrea1,jonaJ park at the Fire Ha111ocation. Members of council. these two petitions, combined with letters sent to you and opinions received by our board members over the past couple months have c:msed us to review the whole situatJon. OUT conclusion is that a major.it~y of our residents do not want a playground to be built at Alpine and Pod's Lane. Tbe reasons people feel this way are many and varied but include..... -too few cillJdren nearoy...s11e win be underutilized...a waste of taxpayers money -dose-by residents don't want a park near their bome...noise, maintenance problems, etc -the fairness issue-my ncighbourbood can't have a playground....why should they? -the Pod's Lane site is unsuitableL With large lots who needs a playground anyway? -money spent there may take away or de1ay a bigger community park we can all use All these inputs have caused our board to depart nom our position of ' 'neutrality/ support neither side" and we now recommend th.at the Pod's Lane ph'l)'grOllnd be turned down.

Chris has asked me to relate to you the particulars of these projects and to solicit your approval. 1) Distance Markers: a) The proposal is to use pressure-treated 6"X6"X8' posts, to be erected by the Township on the side of the trail toward the lake, one at each kilometer along the trail. Anticipating your approval we have already purchased the posts and have cut them diagonally for 21" from one end to comply with the distance markers along adjoining trails. These 27 posts are now stored at your South Yard, awaiting installation. b) After the posts have been installed, the Lions Club are to attach three, 6"X6" signs, (in colour, on weatherproof material, as per signs on adjoining trails), one under the other, on each post. In order, from the top down, these signs would have the crest of the Rail Trail, the crest of the Lions Club, and the distance from the beginning of the trail, Le., km 1, km 2, km3, etc. To conform with adjoining trails, these distances will be measured from the Barrie end of the trail so that the point at which the trail enters Orillia will be "km 27." Do you approve of these particulars? 2. Bridge Decking: The proposal is for the Club to purchase the materials required to deck the two small bridges near the Orillia end of the Trail, and to have the Township install it. We anticipate that the material will be pressure treated lumber as was used for the bridge at Hawkestone and are prepared to purchase whatever is required and have it delivered upon receiving the specifications from Jerry Ball. Do you agree with this proposal? " 3. The Club has also agreed to construct a number of benches for the Trail, which would have the crests of the Rail Trail and the Lions Club attached. We are awaiting the exact number and the design which is to be provided by the Rail Trail Committee. When we have received this information we will share it with you and solicit your approval. Thanks for your consideration.

Tbe provincial office oJ the Ontario Federation of AgricultuIe (OFA) has written to the HonoUJable Chris Hodgson, MPP, Minister of Municipal Affairs and Housing, to request that the OFAhave a seat on the Panel. Tbe Minister responded that the CenlIal Zone Smart Growth Panel aheady has a full complement of members. He indicated that the Ontario Rural Council1 has been invited to sit on the SlIategy Sub-Panel and that a11 panel me~bers have been encoUJaged to consult infonna11y and for- many with the Ontario community at large. Furthermore, the letter indicated that the Smart Growth Secretariat wi11 be working with the Panel to develop a stakeholder involvement process see corre- spondence induded as Attachment #1). OFA staff reported that on May 22, 2002, their Executive decided to respond to Minister Hodgson's rejection by re-emphasizing in a Jetter the need for farming interests to be represented on each Smart Growth Panel. \\'hile Regional staff believe that the Province's decision to inc1ude the Ontario RUJal Council on the CenlIal Zone Smart Growth Panel is positive, this organization does not represent agriculture. Given the importance of agriculture to the economy, the fact that farmers own much of the land in the Central Zone, how integral agricuJtuIal preservation is to advancing Smart Growth, and the existing make-up of the Panel, staffbeIieves iliat agricultural industry representation is needed to balance out the other interests on the Panel.

Growth management is a key issue for the Central Ontario Panel~ and this includes steering growth away from agricultural lands and SIgnificant natural areas. and directing growth to those areas where it is most efficient, cost-effecUve, and results 1n a healthy economy and healthy communities. The members of the Central Ontario Smart Growth Pancl were selected on the basis of their indiVidual expertise and exPerience. and not on their particular affiliation. The pane! is multi-sectOfaI in membership, comprising approximately 50 per cent municipal and 50 per cent non-municipal. aitd reflects a wide range of interests and experiences, including those of agricultural communities. I have asked all p~nel members to consider the short term and long term interests of Central Ontario in its entirety. This . includes the protection of agricultural lands and the agricultural economy. Chaired by Mayor Hazel McCallion. the Central Ontario Smart Growth Panel has begun its work, and has a full complement of members.

The resurfacing results in a steeper driveway rrom our house and continued runoff probJemsfor our'driveWay and garage. . F or many years we have identified to Township staff and Council members that theJevel of the Second Line Road relative. to our house and driveway has been a problem: The centre line of the road is now about four feet above the garage level;' Originally' the grade difference was only about two feet when the house was constructed in' 1976. The Township has increased the problem on at teast four occasions in resurfacing the road, sometimes by raising the base leveI first. Today there is 3 neW resurfacing underway which is tOtally una.cceptable. \Ve hsd no notice that the TO\Vnship was about to do any work. Please .havethe wor~ stopped immediately and. then have the road grade lowered prior to completion of the rcsur:facing. We do apprec.iate the benefits of maintaining tbe ro~d condition but this must not be at our significant in~onvenience. We have toM the TO~1)ship Roads Department three times that the TOad Jc\iel needs to be lowered by about four feet before any more resurfacin'g can occur. Two. Councilors ( Paul .

Council passed the fonowing resoJution to adopt the proposed amendments: 1. That the Minister of Municipal Affairs and Housing be advised that the Township of Oro-Medonte Counci1 is supportive of the enactment of BiB 124, however Council supports the concerns expressed by AMO and that he be requested to amend BiB 124 by: a. Deleting Section 4.2 which would aBow the principle of bui1ding directed registered code agencies; b. Deleting Subsection 8(2.1), which would require a chiefbui1ding . official to issue a buiJding pennit, where the design has been certified by a registered code agency, even if found not to comply with the . Ontario BuiJding code; . . . Ev"3 c. By amending Section 22 of Building Code act to enable a Chief I Building Official to Maintain the same control over registered code agencies that he currently has over building inspectors; and d. By deleting Section 7.1, which would require every Municipal Council to establish and enforce a code of conduct for the Chjef Building Official and inspectors, or by amending that section to provide for a unifonn code of conduct applicable to aJJ participants in the building construction sector; e. By Continuing dialogue with AMO in the same spirit as noted in the Memorandum of Understanding signed with AMO on December 19, 2001; f. That the Attorney General be urged to introduce for enactment Bm 10, "An Act to Amend the Limitations Act" to limit the liabiljty for building construction participants to 10 years, to complement the intent of Em 124. 2. That the Attorney General be urged to introduce for enactment BiJ110" An Act to Amend the Limitations Act", to limit the liability for building construction participants to 1 0 years, to complement the intent of BiJJ 124. ~ 3. That a copy of this report BD2002-07 be forwarded to area MPP Garfield Dunlop, Premier Of Ontario, The Mnister of Municipal Affairs and Housing, The Mnister's Parliamentary Assistant, Leaders of the Opposition, the Association of Municipalities of Ontario. AJthough Em 124 has now received approval, after third reading in the legislature, the Township is forwarding the suggested amendments with a view to encouraging inclusion of these amendments in the regulations that are yet to be drafted. Since Bill 124 will not take effect until 2004, the Township promotes the implementation of the amendments in an effort to improve accountabiJity of key practitioners and also to streamline the building regulatory system.

Thank you again, Yours Sincerely, A Vanita Suessmann Financial Chairperson . 5;() Chris Carter From: dlowery@stepan.com Sent: Friday, August 09, 2002 2:42 PM To: recreation @township.oro-medonte.on.ca Subject: Proposed Park in Horseshoe Highlands - Attention Chris Carter Dear Mr. Carter, I am somewhat dismayed by the well organized attempts by a large minority of Horseshoe Highland residents to again derail the introduction of a park to the area (in the vicinity of Pods Lane) for the children who reside here. As usual, they trot out all of the well worn catch phrases about issues with parking (which highlands residents will be driving to this proposed park?) , the children will eventually grow up and who will use the park then, and the latest issue being environmental concerns. The sad but true fact is that we have residents here who have an aversion to children (although they probably won't admit to it), and are under the illusion that Horseshoe Highlands is a retirement community, hence all of this opposition. It's somewhat amusing that car parking wasn't an issue when at a Horne Tour held two or three years ago both Highland Drive and Fairway Court were littered with vehicles. A park for children, well designed, to fit into the area would in no way be detrimental to the Highlands. I suspect that if some Golf related project had been proposed for the same site you would have had a line up of volunteers and people offering donations to help out. The people opposed to this should be ashamed of themselves. 1 . .

The recent events concerning the construction of a Neighbourhood Park in the Highland's of Horseshoe have forced me to write this e-mail to you. My work schedule this week inhibits me from attending Wednesday's counsel meeting. I felt it was important that I passed along my feeling about the community to you. My wife Anne and I attended last Thursday's information session about the neighbourhood park at the Fire Station. I was not impressed by the actions of my fellow neighbours and those stating they represented the Property Owners Association. I assure you they do not speak for all of us. In fact they used miss information to solicit negative opinion from communities outside of the Highland's of Horseshoe whom the park is intended for. I must say that you should be proud of your staff in how they handled themselves and the information they tried to pass along to a predisposition ed, intolerable, and close minded crowd. I was aghast over the threats of job loss over a simple park for the neighbourhoods children. As you can see I am for a neighbourhood park. I would support a park even if I did not have two small boys. I feel our children need a place to go, and us adults need a place to meet outside of the golf course or Horseshoe Resort. I see children playing in the street or on the fringe of the golf course. Someone's child is going to get hurt one day, especially with the increase in traffic and the new golf course and country club. When you take away the layers of objections surrounding the people against the park it comes down to a couple of people who live around the proposed site objecting to having a playground near their property. From all the site plans I have ever seen of this development there has always been three lots set aside as parks. I would personally like to see all three sites developed somehow. These people who don't want a park near their property should have realized that the property on the corner of Pods and Alpine was designated as a park. I am sure they did, and are counting on the lot not being developed. I find the association is pro for anything concerning the golfer or the skier and nothing else. Just look at the development of the supposed Life Style Community. The Horseshoe Valley Association and the area residents supported the rezoning of the land in order to get the new golf course. Now look at the eye sore. If those model homes are geared towards the elderly who want to gear down I will eat my hat. Those houses are over 3000 square feet on 50 ft lots. The township should not allow that, but that is water under the bridge. I have golf carts driving by my house at any time during the day, and big ride on lawn mowers at 6:00 to 7:00 a.m. during the day. Neither are supposed to be driven on the roads/streets of Ontario, but we do and the municipality is allowing the same people opposed to the park to use a municipality access road as a golf path. I personally feel that those opposed to a neighbourhood park are using the community park option as a smoke screen. If the neighbourhood park was not before counsel they would be against the community park. Even if a community park is built it would be under utilized unless sports leagues are developed. An option that would allow the development of a community park on the Fourth Line would be the construction of a new school along 8/13/2002 Page 2 of2 . , side the park, This way Ihe park would be used by the school during Ihe day and by the community al nigh: ~ - d-- W.R. Best is too small to accommodate the influx of children. Just look at all the new construction going on in the area. The demographics are changing. We were unable to have our son Kaelan, who is now three, attend Junior Kindergarten at his neighbourhood school. He lives 8 km from W.R. Best. He will have to be bussed to an overflow school, which we will not know until September. Also, look at our high school students they are all bussed. This should not be acceptable. We have people looking after the rights of the golfers and the skiers in Horseshoe Valley. It seems like there is an old boys club. We need people to do the right thing and look towards the future. There are no Adult Life Style Houses hear in Horseshoe Valley. All the houses are 3 or 4 bedroom family homes, and families are moving in to them. We need places for people to meet outside of the Country Club or the Resort, and a safe place outside their homes where children can play. We need someone to look after our children's rights. I am asking who is looking out for all our children? Sincerely, John V. Doucet H (705) 835-1588 W (705) 726-2620 8/13/2002 6z LEST WE FORGE1J (.

REPORT TO: Council PREPARED BY: #PR2002-09 Chris Carter SUBJECT & FILE #: DEP ARTMENT: COUNCIL: Parks & Recreation Request for reduction in C-. OF W. Rental Fees at the Oro-Medon e Recreation Centre by Guthrie Public School and W.R. Best Public School for School Reunions MOTION #: DATE: DATE: August 14, 2002 'BACKGROUND: . Over the past year, Township staff has been assisting two different volunteer committees in preparation for their School Reunion to be held in the Spring of2003. The committee members represent Guthrie Public School and W.R. Best Public School. Both require the use of the Arena and surrounding Ban Diamonds for their event. Guthrie P.S. has requested the use of our facilities for Friday, July 11 th to set-up and the 12th for the Reunion. Guthrie Public School has also requested that they be allowed to serve alcohol beverages on the lower level of the arena. W.R. Best has requested May 9th to set-up and the 10th for their reunion to take place. Both Committees are asking Council to lower the rental fee from $500. to $300. t SUMMARY: . Guthrie P.S. Committee has informed Township staff that they will be expecting around 1,000 participants at the Reunion. The event will include presentations, dinner and dancing. The Oro District Lions Club has agreed that they will be the "permit holders" and supply the necessary insurance. The Committee will also supply enough portable washrooms to accommodate the number of attendees. The Committee will be providing security based on the number of tickets sold. W.R. Best P.S. Committee has expressed that they will not be serving alcohoIic beverages at their event, as they wish to keep it family oriented. They expect around 300-1,000 (max) participants to attend the reunion (a more accurate number will be submitted when tickets are purchased). The committee will have security that evening to control the crowd and parking. The Committee plans are to have an "open-house" at the school from 2pm-5pm and then gather at the Arena for a late afternoon gathering. Other events that will be held at the arena will include presentations and a BBQ. They have also agreed to supply enough portable washrooms to accommodate the number of attendees. Correspondence and floor plans for both organizations are attached for Council's perusal. {Pd-J- It would be my recommendation that Council waive the rental fee of $500. as both organizations are volunteer groups involved in community events. I have discussed these events with the Fire Chief, Paul Eenhoom with respect to compliance of fire codes and it was recommended by the Fire Chief, that the overhead door of the Arena must stay opened at all times while the event is taking place. t RECOMMENDATIONS: . 1. That Council waives the "Rental Fee" of $500. for both volunteer committees of Guthrie Public School and W.R. Best Public School. 2. That Council allows the serving of alcoholic beverages by Guthrie Public School Reunion Committee on the lower level of the Arena and exempts them from Section 1 (1.1) of the Township ofOro-Medonte Alcohol Risk Management Policy, which is attached for Council's perusal. 3. That the Guthrie Public School Committee and W.R. Best Public School Committee be advised of Council's decision accordingly. 4. That Council receives and adopts this report.

REPORT TO: COMMITTEE OF THE PREPARED BY: #PWS2002-09 WHOLE Jerry Ball SUBJECT & FILE #: DEPARTMENT: COUNCIL: Ditching Project and Culvert Roads Replacement on Tudhope C. OF W.: Boulevard DATE: August 13, 2002 MOTION #: DATE: R. M. FILE #: L04-9904 ~,!!,~~~~~gM~i?8 . In December, 2001, Report #PWS2001-26 was presented to Council addressing concerns from Bryan and Bernice Kennedy that their driveway pipe and end walls located at 130 Tudhope Boulevard were improperly installed during construction of the storm sewer, which was completed in mid- September, 2001. After site inspections were completed, it was recommended to Council that the Kennedy culvert and end walls remain as previously installed and additional topsoil be placed to assist in blending the end walls into the back slope of the ditch. Mr. Kennedy, being dissatisfied, contacted Jennifer Zieleniewski, Chief Administrative Officer, on July 23, 2002, to arrange another site visit with the Mayor, Public Works Superintendent and herself to address the following concerns: . Remove, replace and extend both end walls into the ditch back slope; . Realign the east end wall; and . Realign the driveway pipe. The cost to complete this one-day repair would be approximately $1,100.00. On July 26, 2002, another site visit was conducted by the Chief Administrative Officer and the Public Works Superintendent to measure and take photos of the driveways that were installed by Georgian Aggregates in the Fall of 2000. Of all driveways that were measured, there was a range of two to seven inches in which the end walls were not parallel. In discussions with the Manager of Operations, Mr. Brian Roubos, who has overseen this project, he advised that run-off water flows down the Kennedy driveway to the end walls and washes into the ditch, which creates erosion to the driveway. ... , . ~ ~ SUMl\IARY: :;:;:;".::>;>,U0;~~U';:nUh:;i::ii;@@,~i~~,:;W-- . As not to set a precedent with the existing driveways on Tudhope Boulevard, it is recommended that Mr. Kennedy reshape his driveway, create swales on both sides of the lane to eliminate further erosion, and landscape at the backside of the end walls to enhance his driveway and property, a process which has been done by a majority of the residents in the area.

OF W.: Ministry File # 43T-93016 DATE: August 6, 2002 MOTION #: DA TE: R. M. FILE #: D12-6761 Prior to draft plan approval for the 30 Lot Edgar Subdivision, a test well was installed to evaluate the potential for a communal water supply system in 1990. This original development concept was changed from a communal water supply system to individual wells. This change resulted in The Ministry of the Environment requesting four (4) more test wells in 1995. The report prepared by Ian Wilson Associates Ltd. of the wells in 1995, showed that there was some exceedence of both iron and manganese above the drinking water standard as summarized in the attached chart. Both iron & manganese are considered aesthetic and not health related. Well #3 in 1995 detected mercury at 0.5 ug/L. Although below the health related drinking water objective of 1 ug/L, Ian Wilson in his report suggested that the mercury detected was believed to be a laboratory error. To ensure that there was no mercury contamination the M.O.E. requested reo sampling of the well, which was never done, resulting in the draft plan conditions 9 (a) warning concerning water quality (Potable). This development has recently been sold and the new owner has proceeded with M.O.E. request to -have well #3 retested. The water test was preformed by Ian Willson Associates Limited and have been attached for councils perusal. Of note pages 3 &4 of the 2002 report shows the mercury content of the water was non-detectable and the iron content of the water is considerble lower. The developer is requesting that the M.O.E. reword the draft plan condition #9 required in the subdivision agreement to remove the warning concerning water quality (potable) and is requesting the Township support is amendment. ~b-~ If supported by council and approved by the M.O.E., this will require an amendment to the existing subdivision agreement, which would be presented to council for consideration. 1. THAT Council receives and adopts this report. 2. That the Township of Oro-Medonte support Bestpro Corporation's request to the MOEE to reword draft plan condition #9 in the subdivision agreement. To Read: 9 (a) That the subdivision agreement contains the appropriate caution that groundwater may contain aesthetically elevated levels of iron and lor manganese, which may require the use on in- home treatment systems to reduce these parameters to levels below applicable aesthetic drinking water standards. The Municipality concurs with the utilization of in-home treatment systems. 9 (b) That the subdivision agreement contains a requirement that all agreements of purchase and sale entered into by the subdivider contain the appropriate caution. That groundwater may contain aesthetically elevated levels of iron and I or manganese, which may require that use of in- home treatment systems to reduce these parameters to levels below applicable aesthetic drinking water standards, to the satisfaction of the Ministry of the Environment and Energy. Respectfully Submitted Keith Mathieson Director of Engineering and Environmental Services C.A.O. COMMENTS: DATE: C.A.O.: DEPT. HEAD: . zsb-3 . July 5, 2002 Mr. Bernie Still Bestpro Corporation 1833 Quantz Crescent Innisfill, Ontario L9S lX2 Dear Mr. Still: Re: Draft Plan Approval Condition 9 Subdivision Agreement Condition 1.12 Edgar Estates, Community of Edgar Lot 10, Concession 5, Township of Oro-Medonte (Oro) Plan of Subdivision OM.T.93016 As authorized, we have comple,ted a review of our file and conducted additional field work to provide a technical justification for the re.wording of Subdivision Agreement Condition 1.12 and Draft Plan Approval Condition 9 for the Edgar Estates subdivision. DRAFT PLAN APPROVAL AND SUBDIVISION AGREEMENT WORDING Draft Plan Approval Condition 9 reads as follows: a) That the subdivision agreement contain the" appropriate warning concerning water quality (potable) and requirements for the utilization of in-house treatment systems. The municipality concurs with the utilization of in-house treatment systems. b) That the subdivision agreement contain a requirement that all agreements of purchase and sale entered into by the subdivider contain the appropriate warnings with respect to water quality (potable) and the requirement for utilization of in-house treatment systems, to the satisfaction of the Ministry of the Environment and Energy. Subdivision Agreement Condition 1.12 reads as follows: The developer, and each individual lot owner, agrees to comply with the requirements and recommendations of the hydrogeologist's report prepared by Ian D. Wilson and Associates Limited dated October 2, 1990, Addendum No. 1 dated March 29, 1993 and Addendum No.2 dated June 20, 1995. , :??b-L/ . Ian D. Wilson Associates Limited 2 Edgar Estates In addition, the Developer shall notify each prospective purchaser of a lot(s) that: a) Wells should only be constructed into the water supplies that had their quality confirmed through testing; b) Elevated Manganese concentrations are possible and may require treatment for aesthetic reasons; c) In-house treatment systems will be required to provide water quality (potable). In a letter dated June 13, 2002 responding to a request for a change in the wording of Condition 9, Mr. W. Armstrong of the Ministry of Environment and Energy stated: The reason for my Ministry recommending the condition in the first place was due to the fact that hydrogeological studies done for the applicant showed that certain (aesthetic) water quality parameters exceeded the Ontario Drinking Water Objectives. Also, mercury was found in the water which, although the level detected was not in exceedance of the ODWO, was of concern. Hence my Ministry recommended a prudent approach to the provision of drinking water to the residents of the subdivision. SUMMARY OF ON-SITE TESTING To briefly summarize the relevant portions of the hydrogeologic study completed at Edgar Estates: . Five test wells were drilled on the 25.6 hectare property, one in 1990 and the remainder in 1994/1995. The 1990 well was subjected to a 24-hour pumping test in February 1990 while the four subsequent wells were tested for periods of between four and six hours in February 1995. . All five wells yielded water with good bacteriological quality. . All five wells yielded water with no health-related parameters exceeding applicable Ontario Drinking Water Objectives, . Of the five tested wells, the water from three (T.W.'s 2, 3 and 4) contained iron at levels exceeding the aesthetic Drinking Water Standard of 0.3mg/L. Of the five tested wells, the water from only Test Well 1 contained manganese at a level exceeding the aesthetic Drinking Water Standard of 0.05mg/L. . Mercury was reported at 0.0005mg/L in the water from T.W.3, below the health-related Drinking Water Objective of O.OOlmg/L. In must be noted that . '8b -5 . Ian D. Wilson Associates Limited 3 Edgar Estates the laboratory's .detection limit for mercury was O.OOOlmg/L and the level detected was only slightly above the detection limit and should be viewed with caution. Our June 20, 1995 report suggested that the detected level of mercury was a laboratory error as no sources of mercury are known to be present in the area. WELL 3 WATER QUALITY RE-SAMPLlNG On June 28, 2002, Test Well 3 was pumped for a 4 hour period, first at 45 litres per minute to clear the well casing (for about 20 minutes), then at 15 litres per minute for the remainder of the 4 hour period, to obtain a fresh sample of water for are. analysis of mercury and general water chemistry. Water samples were collected in laboratory-supplied bottles, stored in an ice-packed cooler and submitted to PSC Analytical Services within approximately three hours of sample collection. The following table summarizes the results of the re-sampling and includes the results of the original 1995 analysis for comparison. Parameter June 28, 2002 February 14, 1995 pH 8.03 7.8 Ammonia <0.05 0.07 T.K.N. 0.30 0.28 Nitrate + Nitrite 3.60 3.00 D.O.C. <0.5 <0.3 Conductivity 346 363 Sulphate 10 12 Alkalinity 171 168 Chloride 1 11 Hardness 201 217 Bicarbonate 169 205 Carbonate 2 0 T.D.S. 215 311 .

Apart from some minor differences (i.e. iron, bicarbonate, T.O.S.), the overall chemical quality of the water samples collected from Well 3 in 1995 and 2002 is generally similar. Interestingly, the 2002 iron content of the water from Well #3 was non-detectable, declining from the slightly elevated level of 0.47mg/L in 1995. The mercury content of the water from Well 3 in 2002 was non-detectable, as would be expected in the regional and geologic setting of the well. The low level of mercury originally reported by the laboratory was most likely in error, as was suggested in our 1995 Well Evaluation Report. A copy of all analytical results for the five on-site test wells is attached, including the results of the 2002 re-analysis of the water from Well 3. RECOMMENDATIONS FOR CONDITION RE-WORDING Based on the results of the water chemistry analyses completed from 1990 through 2002, iron and manganese are the only chemical parameters which exceeded applicable aesthetic Drinking Water Standards in the water from one or more wells. It must be emphasized that iron and manganese are aesthetic, non-health related, drinking water parameters. There are no health-related parameters which exceeded applicable current Ontario Drinking Water Standards in the water from any of the five wells. Mercury, raised as an issue in the June 13, 2002 letter from Mr. W. Armstrong of the MOEE, was non-detectable in the water from all five wells (with the 2002 reo sampling results taken into account). The following table summarizes the results of all iron and manganese determinations conducted since 1990: Iron (mg/L) Manganese (mg/L) I Drinking Water Standard '0.3 0.05 . 2$b -l . ~ 1f\~(V~~_ Ian D.

Manganese exceeded the aesthetic Drinking Water Standard of 0.05 mg/L in the water from one well only. Draft Plan Approval Condition No.9 states that warnings of water quality (potable) and a requirement for the utilization of in-house treatment units must be included in the subdivision agreement as well as all agreements of purchase and sale. The wording of Draft Plan Condition No.9 is of concern for the following reasons: 1. Iron and manganese are the only parameters of possible concern and, because they are aesthetic parameters, they do not represent a health risk. Iron and manganese are very common, naturally-occurring constituents of groundwater in southern Ontario. Reference to warnings regarding the potability of the water may, for a layperson, create undue alarm regarding the safety of the water. 2. Because iron and manganese were not detected in the water from all five wells at levels exceeding applicable Drinking Water Standards, there should be no requirement for all lots to utilize in-house treatment systems. In fact, because iron and manganese. are aesthetic parameters, tolerance for the effects of possibly elevated levels of iron and/or manganese will vary with individual lot owners. The decision to utilize treatment for aesthetic purposes should rest with the resident. It is recommended that the MOEE re-word Draft Plan Condition No. 9 to more accurately represent the quality of potable groundwater at Edgar Estates using the following format: a) That the subdivision agreement contain the appropriate caution that - groundwater may contain aesthetically elevated levels of iron and/or manganese, which may require the use of in-house treatment systems to reduce these parameters to levels below applicable aesthetic Drinking Water Standards. The municipality concurs with the utilization of in-house treatment systems. . ~b-2 . Ian D. Wilson Associates limited 6 Edgar Estates b) That the subdivision agreement contain a requirement that all agreements of purchase and sale entered into by the subdivider contain the appropriate caution that groundwater may contain aesthetically elevated levels of iron and/ or manganese, which may require the use of in-house treatment systems to reduce these parameters to levels below applicable aesthetic Drinking Water Standards, to the satisfaction of the Ministry of the Environment and Energy. It is further recommended that the Municipality re.word and shorten Subdivision Agreement Condition 1.12 to more accurately represent the quality of potable groundwater at Edgar Estates using the following format: In addition, the Developer shall notify each prospective purchaser of a lot(s) that: a) Wells should only be constructed into the water supplies that had their quality confirmed through testing; b) Elevated iron and manganese concentrations are possible In groundwater supplies and may require the use of in-house treatment units to achieve aesthetically acceptable levels of iron and/or manganese, should it be desired by the resident. Should you, the Municipality or the Ministry of Environment and Energy have any questions, or require further details, please feel free to contact this office. Yours sincerely, IAN D.

The land to be dedicated would be added to an existing parkland within the Hamlet of Moonstone known as Toboggan Hill which is located to the west of the Thatcher property. A copy of the applicant's sketch for consent is attached for reference purposes. . . After a site visit on Thursday July 25, 2002 by the C.A.O, the Public Works Superintendent, and the Junior Planner the consensus was that the parkland to be dedicated would not be beneficial to the Township given its location, potential maintenance obligations and the perceived limited range of recreational uses for which the site could be utilized. The lay of the land contains a large slope to the west, and the existing park is vacant and is hardly used. The potential use of the park would 3c-;). be very limited in recreational purposes or development purposes as the subject property is zoned Environmental Protection under Zoning By-law 97-95 as amended. This proposed parkland has also been discussed with Chris Carter, the Recreation Coordinator to determine its suitability in regards to the Recreation Master Plan and Secondary Study. After reviewing the site and the surrounding property details, Mr. Carter concurs with the recommendation proposed that the parkland does not conform with the needs of the Township and should not be accepted. I RECOMMENDATION I It is recommended to Council that; 1. This report be received and adopted; 2. That Council not accept the 3.28 hectares identified in Consent Applications B-18/02 and B- 19/02 as a parkland dedication; and 3. That the applicant be so advised.

REPORT TO: PREPARED BY: #ES2002-43 COUNCIL Keith Mathieson SUBJECT & FILE #: DEPARTMENT: COUNCIL: Request for a by-law to Public Works control the use of pesticides on private property DATE: '" C. OF W.: . July 31, 2002 MOTION #: DATE: R. M. FILE #: E05-12045 (Clerk) At the present time application of pesticides are controlled by both the Federal and Provincial Government's, by way of issuing licenses to apply pesticides and approval of what pesticides may be uses. In 1991 the Town of Hudson in Quebec, passed a by-law that ban the use of pesticides by home owners, with the exception to owners of golf courses, farmers or animal care givers. This by-law was appealed all the way to the Supreme Court of Canada, which ruled that Municipalities do have the right to enact laws benefiting the health and well being of their citizens. Meaning The Township can ban the use of chemicals and pesticides in their Municipality if they so wish to do so. In essence any Municipality, can if they wish, pass a by-law stating the use of any pesticides defined as insecticides, fungicide or herbicides on private land other then Golf Courses, Farms or Animal care centers be ban. The passing of a by-law such as this by a Local Municipality would add to another level of bureaucracy and it would also be of great expense to the Township to have a by-law like this enforced and monitored. ~ The Townships solicitor, Mr. Chris Williams, has reservations weather this by-law would be enforced once the new Municipal act comes into effect in January 2003. ~'"J. 1. THAT Council receives and adopts this report. 2. THAT The Township of Oro-Medonte does not considered passing a by-law banning the use of pesticides on private property. 3. THA T Mr. Comrie. Mr. Bushett and Mr. & Mrs. Bucik be notified of Councils decision. Thank you, Townsh' ofOro-Medonte Keith Mathieson, C.R.S.! Director of Engineering and Environmental Services C.A.O.

REPORT TO: COMMITTEE OF THE PREPARED BY: # ES2002-46 WHOLE Keith Mathieson SUBJECT & FILE #: DEPARTMENT: COUNCIL: Tender For Upgrading To Public Works J Municipal Pump House C. OF W.: DATE: MOTION #: August 9, 2002 DATE: R. M. FILE #: An engineering report was prepared for each of the Township owned Municipal water systems in March of 2001, as part of regulation 459/00 requirements. From these reports upgrades were identified and incorporated into the new certificate of approvals issued by the M.O.E. to be completed by December 2002. Invitational tenders were sent to nine (9) contractors of which five (5) received the tender documents at the mandatory site visit on July 25, 2002. The tender was broken into three (3) sections; Mechanical, Electrical and Well. Allowing the contractor to bid on one, two or all three sections of the tender. Three (3) tenders were received prior to closing at 10:00 Wednesday August 7th, and were opened in the presents of the clerk Ms. Marilyn Pennycook, myself and two representatives from R.G. Robinson's and Associates at the Township office on Wednesday afternoon. The results are as follows: , Mechanical Electrical Well Total Inc. GST #' 1- Midland Mechanical $44,648.79 $175,725.43 $4,237.20 $224,611.42 2- Western Mechanical $74,652.00 $212,880.00 $4,400.00 $291,932.00 3- Keller Electric $77,094.00 $239,849.00 $4,429.00 $321,372.00 Be-~ The mechanical and well tender prices are in line with our 2002 budget works and OST AR funding request. The electrical portion of the tender includes the purchase and installation of Mag meters, to record the flows from each well into the distribution system at total cost of $93,433.00. The installation of these meters are required to measure the flow rate and daily quantity of water being taken from each well as per section 2.1 (a) in the new certificate of approvals. The installation of well leveling d€vices was estimated at $4,000.00. The tender price is between $4,000.00 and $ 6,000.00. The cost of $93,433.00 to install the Mag meters was not included in the 2002 budget or the OSTAR funding r-equest. If additional funding from OST AR is not successful the cost of the Mag meters will be drawn from the reserve funds. Township staff will keep council abreast of the result of additional funding request from OST AR. 1~,~~~~M~~'J'!~~I~,~S'~iiji!iiiij'ji%ii'.C'.".'.' ."
