Public Meeting – Accessibility on the K&P Trail Tichborne to Sharbot Lake 2017-077 Planning and Economic Development Public Meeting Report K&P Trail Design (Tichborne to Sharbot Lake)
The Joint Frontenac Accessibility Advisory Committee hosted a public meeting to consider accessibility on the K&P Trail from Tichborne to Sharbot Lake in accordance with Ontario Regulation 191/11, Integrated Accessibility Standards, Section 80.08 Consultation, recreational trails. Mr. Neil Allen, Chair, called the public meeting to order at 10:03 a.m. He introduced the staff who were present and provided an overview of the public meeting format. Mr. Richard Allen, Manager of Economic Development introduced the project and provided an overview of the report. Mr. Allen stated public input is being sought on slopes, rest areas, passing areas, viewing areas and amenities such as signage and benches for the K & P trail. He noted that previous sections of the trail have not met some of the criteria of the Design of Public Spaces Standard and this will be looked at in future years. Mr. Neil Allen opened up the floor to members of the public to provide comment.
Minutes of Meeting held May 29, 2017

AGENDA ITEM #a)
Mr. Halliday asked if there was an Economic Development strategy that links the trail with tourism and if so is this accessible to the public to which Mr. Allen replied that the County does have a Trails Master Plan available on the County’s website; however the Plan does not incorporate the requirements of the Design of Public Spaces Standard. The K&P Trail is designed for both tourists and residents. The County does not have an official Tourism Strategy but it does have an Economic Development Strategy that identifies trips and trails. Trail use will be linked to local communities and as such, staff will work to educate local business on this. Mr. Neil Allen asked what the permitted uses are on the trails to which Mr. Richard Allen replied that this section of the trial is open to motorized vehicles, walking, cycling and horseback riding. The portion of the trail south of Verona does not permit motorized vehicles. He further noted that the County does have an agreement in place with the Eastern Ontario Trails Alliance to provide maintenance and marketing services for the trail and will be monitoring the trail and checking for permits for motorized vehicles as these users have the greatest impact on the surface of the trail so this is how the costing is offset. There is also a volunteer who inspects the trail on a regular basis. Ms. Knott asked if a wheelchair was able to access the trail to which Mr. Allen replied yes, noting that most portions of the trail have a low grade and signage will include any anticipated changes in the grade. There may be a few sections where the grade will need to divert from the standard rail bed but this will come back to the committee. He noted with the City of Kingston section of the K&P now complete, this brings the trial right to the Wolfe Island ferry dock so there are linkages that connect Wolfe Island to the K&P. Howe Island is connected to the waterfront trail and fits within the regional trail system. Mr. Neil Allen noted that he has been on the trail and the only challenge that he has faced are the divots left from horses along with excrement and asked if this will be addressed during maintenance to which Mr. Richard Allen stated yes, noting that the surface will check regularly and re-graded as required. Staff will ensure that this is included in the maintenance plan. Mr. Neil Allen indicated that the sections of the trail that he has been on are just off Murton Road in both directions and the felt that the surface in this area was quite good. Mr. Richard Allen stated that the goal is to keep to that standard and is pleased to hear that this meets the requirements of users with mobility aids and as such, will maintain this type of surface throughout the trail. Councillor Dewey asked if the surface of the new portion of the trail would continue on as stone dust up to Sharbot Lake to which Mr. Allen replied that the standard of construction will continue throughout the trail unless we are required to hold it up to a higher standard through accessibility requirements. Ms. Knott asked if a person using a walker would be able to use the trail to which Mr. Allen replied that it would depend on the walker and would need to be a specific wheel size. The trail surface is fairly hard packed; however there are still sections of the trail that are gravel which has not yet been compacted.

AGENDA ITEM #a)
Mr. Neil Allen asked how far apart rest areas would be to which Mr. Richard Allen stated that the current design does not include a lot of rest areas which are currently at road crossings and benches have also not been included. The sections of the trail are fairly rural but as part of land acquisition there are areas that could be used for rest areas and if the committee has recommendations these could be develop over time. Mr. Neil Allen asked about passing areas to which Mr. Richard Allen replied that the standard width of the trail, with the exception of a few portions where it is reduced to accommodate a corner, are wide enough to permit two motorized vehicles to pass each other. He further noted that this section of the trail has no water crossings so there would be no bridges. Mr. Neil Allen asked what would be considered amenities on the trail to which Mr. Richard Allen noted that this could be such things as locations where you might stop to see a unique view and may include benches and picnic areas or other public infrastructure. For example the City of Kingston identifies all benches along the trail and this is included in the signage. This would also include restroom facilities. Councillor McDougall asked Mr. Allen if he could provide for the Committee how the trail has been purchased piece by piece to which Mr. Allen noted that in previous sections of the trail, the County was able to purchase these in large pieces; however this section was distributed to adjacent landowners when the railway ceased ownership to adjacent landowners and as such needs to be purchased from multiple lands owners as opposed to one. The trail was to run along the former rail bed; however in some places this has not been possible so there are areas of the trail where it crosses a few roads including 3 crossings over Road 38 and a few over local roads. Staff are looking at ways to better notify road users that there are trail crossings, including cross walk functions. From a construction standpoint, the rail bed is the best place to develop a trail as it is already constructed; however because the trail is only so wide, users may have difficulty procuring parking. Moving forward, the previously completed sections of the trail need to be brought up to accessibility standards and he will be consulting with the committee on this. Mr. Neil Allen commented that it may be beneficial to identify all locations of parking areas within the vicinity to which Mr. Richard Allen advised that he will consider this when looking at signage. One of the challenges is in Tichborne where the trail actually crosses an active railway track with the K&P trail crossing that on the sidewalk and he will be looking to this committee for feedback on how this can be made accessible. The County owns sufficient lands that it may be able to accommodate a parking lot where users can start their journey on the north side of the track and avoid having to cross the rail way. It was questioned if that portion might be paved to which Mr. Richard Allen indicated that he will look into this as he learns more about the construction process of the trail. Ms. Knott noted there are some rail way crossings that have a ramp type structure to help people get over them. The public meeting adjourned at 10:36 p.m.

Deputations and/or Presentations
Briefings Councillor McDougall spoke to the Committee with respect to a citizens request that he had received regarding Accessible Transportation. He feels that the County and Township should be guaranteeing reasonable access to all citizens and accessible transportation is difficult. He invited representatives of the Frontenac Transportation Services to provide their comments on accessible transportation. Ms. Gale Young, Manager of Frontenac Transportation and Mr. David Townsend of the Southern Frontenac Community Services provided the

AGENDA ITEM #a)
Committee with an overview of the documentation attached to the agenda. Ms. Young noted that currently the Frontenac Transportation Services does not provide accessible transportation as it is cost prohibitive. FTS does have a client who resides in the northern part of Frontenac County who uses a wheelchair; however that client is being lifted in and out of the wheelchair in order to be put into a vehicle. The client is on ODSP and ODSP covers the cost to take this client to and from Kingston on a daily basis. FTS does have an accessible vehicle; however it cannot withstand a trip to Kingston and back every day. The insurance also would require that FTS use an employee when driving the vehicle and currently, FTS uses the services of volunteer drivers using their own vehicles with their own insurance. Ms. Young is proposing that FTS could purchase an accessible van that would accommodate 2 wheelchairs which would allow them to pick up clients in North Frontenac and South Frontenac for their appointments in Kingston. During the appointments, the van could be re-deployed to accommodate others requiring the use of an accessible vehicle. The option would be to have the FTS existing van re-modeled or purchase a new vehicle that accommodates 2 wheelchairs. Based on some initial research, the cost of an accessible van for a single chair is between $70K and $100K and suspects a custom built vehicle will be more. An accessible bus can carry up to 14 passengers. The driver of the vehicle will need to be on staff at FTS. FTS can provide a proper proposal if the County would be willing to provide annual funding that would make this solution sustainable as FTS does have the resources and are looking to be part of the solution. The proposal would include the cost of a new vehicle along with annual operating costs such as insurance, wages, maintenance, repairs and revenues for mileage charges. Mr. Halliday pointed to the Trillium capital intake grants that may be used for the purchase of the vehicle. Councillor McDougall noted that the County has an excellent working relationship with Frontenac Transportation Services and each year supports its request. From his experience, he does not think this would receive a lot of pushback from the County and currently provides $96,000 so every senior ride is subsidized by the County. Councillor Dewey also noted the Rick Hanson grants to which Mr. Townsend stated that to date, FTS has not investigated potential sources of capital funding until it can ensure the sustainability of the service so until there is a sustainability plan FTS will not go down this path. Ms. Knott questioned where the health system comes into play. She noted that Frontenac Islands has tried to ensure that health services are available on the island to ensure the ferry does not become backlogged as a result of residents being forced into Kingston for services; however the health system

seems to put up road blocks. Mr. Halliday noted that accessibility is treated economically and even the Province has moved this portfolio to the Ministry of Economic Development and Trade so the issue is in Toronto. Frontenac Transportation Services will include this in their annual presentation to County Council. On another note, Mr. Townsend noted that renovations will soon be underway on the north east entrance of the Grace Centre so all entrances to the Grace Centre will be accessible by the end of the summer. Neil Allen, Chair, provided the Committee with an update on his meeting with Township of South Frontenac Public Works regarding accessible upgrades to Point Park which was attached to the agenda package. This will greatly benefit those using mobility aides to access the park. 8.

Other Business
Mr. Neil Allen noted the new medical center on Rutledge Road which has a paved parking area with designated accessible parking, a nice sloped walkway to the entrance of the building and barrier free doors. Councillor McDougall has had discussions with the builder who is willing to work with Mr. Allen on this project. Mr. Allen will follow up on this. Ms. Knott noted that the shovel has now gone in the ground for the Seniors Housing project on Wolfe Island and she provided a drawing of the project to the committee. She also noted that a public meeting was held where the footprint of a unit was taped out on the floor to allow the public an opportunity to make comments and recommendations. Because of the water issue on the Islands walk in bath tubs may need to be changed to showers. It is anticipated that this project will be completed by the end of October and all accessibility requirements have been incorporated into the design. Ms. Knott noted that work on the General Wolfe Inn is now under construction with the entire front being redeveloped and the new owners have committed to ensure all accessibility requirements. 11.

Date of meeting: November 13, 2017 Re:
Frontenac Accessibility Advisory Committee –2018-2022 Multi-Year Accessibility Plan Review and Public Consultation
Recommendation Be It Resolved That the Council of the County of Frontenac approved the 2018-2022 Multi-Year Accessibility Plan attached to this report as Appendix A Background The Accessibility Advisory Committee is mandated to assist County and Township Councils of the County of Frontenac in enabling persons with disabilities to have equal access to all opportunities within the County as well as work with Council and the community at large to identify and address the needs of persons with disabilities within the community, including the prevention and removal of barriers. The Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act, 2005 (AODA), Ontario Regulation 191/11 Section 4, directs designated public sector organizations to establish, implement, maintain and document a multi-year accessibility plan which will outline the organization’s strategy to prevent and remove barriers to accessibility and meet the requirements of the Regulation. The plan must be made publicly available and updated at least once every five years. The County of Frontenac, which is considered a large public sector organization under the AODA, adopted its first multi-year accessibility plan on December 18, 2012 for the years 2013 to 2017, the content of which addressed AODA regulations related to training, employment, and information and communications. During the preparation of this document, the Townships were invited to include their own multi-year plans with the County’s, with the intention of producing a joint plan. The Township of North Frontenac was the only Township that provided its multi-year plan. The invitation to the remaining Townships remained open; however the remaining Townships did not provide individual plans.

AGENDA ITEM #a)
Comment At the Frontenac Accessibility Advisory Committee meeting held May 29, 2017, the Committee received report 2017-078, being the first draft of the proposed 2018-2022 Multi-Year Accessibility Plan. The Plan included a number of significant changes, including introductions to all member municipalities, the addition of two Appendices, Appendix A identifying accomplishments to date and Appendix B Accessibility Strategic Action Plan for each of the member municipalities. The inclusion of these Appendices will help create a Multi-year plan that is a living document, which will moving forward, be reported on and updated annually to track the status of projects as well as add new projects as they are identified. The Plan will now cover all of the Frontenacs as opposed to each individual Township creating its own plan and incorporating it into the Joint Plan. As such, wording has been changed throughout the document from “County of Frontenac” to “the Frontenacs”. The Plan has been slightly revised since the last meeting to now include updated Appendices B. As part of the County’s commitment to citizen engagement and community outreach, a public notice, encouraging citizens to attend the meeting and to offer input into the plan was posted on member municipality websites and advertised through the County’s social media outlets. Comments were open until November 1st prior to final approval of the Plan by Committee and Council. No comments had been received at the time of this report. A copy of the 2018-2022 Multi-Year Accessibility Plan is attached to this report as Appendix A. Should the Committee approved the proposed resolution, a copy of the resolution will then be sent to all 5 Frontenac municipal councils for adoption. Sustainability Implications Creating barrier-free communities through accessibility planning will enhance the County’s goal of sustainability in both the social and economic pillars of the County’s sustainability plan. As stated in Directions for Our Future, social sustainability is based on equity, diversity, connectivity, democracy and a good quality of life. It further states that economic development takes health, community, education, and environmental and social objectives into account. Financial Implications There are no direct financial implications associated with this report.

The Township of Frontenac Islands The Township of Frontenac Islands Frontenac Islands was formed in 1998 by the amalgamation of two of Ontario’s oldest rural municipalities: Howe Island and Wolfe Island. Both islands can trace their European roots back to New France, but it was only in the years after the War of 1812 that settlement took place in any numbers. The islands are named after two of Britain’s generals from the time period of the Seven Year’s War: James Wolfe and William Howe. Frontenac Islands have a mixture of agricultural and rural lifestyles with a growing proportion of residents working off the islands in Kingston or elsewhere in Frontenac County. The islands, situated as they are at the beginning of the St. Lawrence River, provide a unique location to live and work. Access to the mainland is by boat: both islands are serviced by ferries year-round with the addition of a seasonal ferry to the USA from Wolfe Island from May to November. Frontenac Islands Township provides the following services to its residents:

Employment Addresses the supports given to employees and those who are being assessed for employment. Transportation Addresses the barriers and supports for transit customers. Design of Public Spaces Addresses the barriers and supports for the construction and redevelopment of public spaces including recreational trails and beach access routes; outdoor public use eating areas; outdoor play spaces; exterior paths of travel; accessible parking; obtaining services; and maintenance of accessible elements. The multi-year plan is also part of what is required by legislation. The Act requires organizations to establish, implement, maintain and document a multi-year accessibility plan which outlines the organization’s strategy to prevent and remove barriers and meet its requirements under the Regulation. The Frontenacs are required to post the accessibility plan on the following web sites: County of Frontenac – www.frontenaccounty.ca Township of North Frontenac – www.northfrontenac.ca Township of Central Frontenac – www.centralfrontenac.com Township of South Frontenac – www.southfrontenac.net Township of Frontenac Islands – www.frontenacislands.ca and to provide the plan in an accessible format upon request. The plan must also be updated every five years.
The Joint Frontenac Accessibility Advisory Committee In 2002, the County and the four Townships established a Joint Frontenac Accessibility Advisory Committee. The mandate of the Committee is to assist the Frontenac Councils in enabling persons with disabilities to have equal access to all opportunities within the County. The Committee holds up to six meetings per year, which are held during the day and last for one or two hours. Committee members currently sit from their date of appointment for the term of Council (November 30th of an election year), and are paid a per diem of $75 for each meeting, along with reimbursement for mileage to and from the meeting. The composition of the Committee includes one representative from each township, one representative from the community at large and two members of County Council.

The Committee played an important role in the development of this multi-year plan.
Overview: What we have accomplished so far? In 2009, Frontenac Councils adopted the Accessible Customer Service Policy, making the Frontenacs compliant with Ontario Regulation 429/07. This regulation established accessibility standards for customer service across the province, ensuring that Ontarians receive services based on the principles of dignity, independence, integration and equal opportunity. As of 2016 the Accessible Customer Service Standard was incorporated into the Integrated Accessible Standards Regulation as per Ontario Regulation 191/11 and that change is now reflected in this plan. In 2013 Frontenac Councils adopted the Integrated Accessibility Standards Regulation, making the Frontenacs compliant with Ontario Regulation 191/11. The Integrated Accessibility Policy encompasses all requirements of the new IASR, including the Information and Communications Standard, the Employment Standard, the Transportation Standard and the Design of Public Spaces Standard, and IASR training for all employees, volunteers and members of Council. A full list of individual accomplishments of each of the Frontenacs are noted in Appendix A. The Frontenacs continue to review existing and develop new policies, practices and procedures in relation to AODA accessibility requirements.

Customer Service The Accessible Customer Service Policy commits us to communicating with persons with disabilities using multiple alternative formats, welcoming persons who are accompanied by service animals or support persons, and training our staff in the provision of goods and/or services to persons with disabilities. Along with the Accessible Customer Service Policy, Frontenac Councils also adopted “How May I Help you?” Accessible Customer Service Best Practices and Procedures. This document provides clear and detailed instructions on how to best serve persons with disabilities. The Frontenacs will continue to provide accessible customer service as outlined above and will continue to receive feedback and consult with the general public on how to best service their needs. Information and Communications The Frontenacs are committed to meeting the communication needs of people with disabilities. We will consult with people with disabilities to determine their information and communication needs.

Comment The follow is a list of accessibility updates and activities that have occurred during 2017:
- Accessibility Awareness Campaign AODA Pamphlet and Material As of November 7, 2017, the County’s Community Development Officer has had meetings with new Brand Ambassadors, bringing the total to 109. The County’s Community Development Officer is out in the community visiting businesses to promote the new Frontenac Branding and signing up Brand Ambassadors. As part of this, the CDO also provides the accessibility materials that contain information regarding what businesses need to know with respect to compliance with the AODA.
- Updates from the Accessibility Directorate of Ontario The Evolution of Accessibility From April to June of this year the Accessibility Directorate of Ontario hosted nine community accessibility forums across Ontario as part of the 150th year of Canada’s confederation.

AGENDA ITEM #b)
The film examines how accessibility has changed over time in Ontario through personal stories of accessibility champions from across the province. Through numerous requests, the film was shared with municipalities to allow more people to watch and learn from it, along with a discussion guide to spark discussions in communities. The film and discussion guide can be downloaded by visiting www.TheAccessibilityHub.ca and has also been linked to the County’s accessibility webpage. Enabling Change Program – Call for Proposals The EnAbling Change Program provides funding for educational projects that promote accessibility for people with disabilities. Incorporated non-profit organizations are invited to submit proposals that contribute to the program’s goals for 2018/19, those being: •
Increasing awareness and compliance with Ontario’s Accessibility Standard for the Design of Public Spaces among businesses and non-profits, and the public sector.
•
Increasing awareness of invisible disabilities and promoting the removal of attitudinal barriers in a specific industry/sector.
•
Advancing Ontario’s Employment Strategy for People with Disabilities by: Promoting a foundation of accessibility through awareness and compliance with Ontario’s Accessibility Standard for Employment in a specific industry/sector; Engaging employers by promoting barrier-free recruitment practices for job candidates with disabilities in a specific industry/sector.
Examples of projects that would align with this year’s EnAbling Change goals are: •
An educational program to inform the municipal sector of requirements for accessible trails and beach access routes, and other public spaces regulated by Ontario’s accessibility standards
•
An educational program for the retail sector to increase awareness of how service animals assist people with invisible disabilities
•
An educational program for the manufacturing sector about conducting a job interview that is accessible to candidates with disabilities

Report 2017-143 Committee Report To:
Chair and Members of the Frontenac Accessibility Advisory Committee
From:
Richard Allen, Manager of Economic Development Jannette Amini, Manager of Legislative Services/Clerk
Date of meeting: November 13, 2017 Re:
Frontenac Accessibility Advisory Committee – Accessible Signage along the K&P Trail
Recommendation Be It Resolved That the Frontenac Accessibility Advisory Committee support the proposed signage for the Frontenac K&P Trail attached as Appendix A to this report. Background Since 2007 Frontenac County has pursued the development of the K&P Trail, a multiuse pathway utilizing the rail bed from the former Kingston & Pembroke Railway. In 2017 it is expected that the final portion of this project will be completed, constructing an estimated 11.7 km of additional trail between Tichborne and Sharbot Lake. The Accessibility Advisory Committee is mandated to assist County and Township Councils in the County of Frontenac in enabling persons with disabilities to have equal access to all opportunities within the County as well as work with Council and the community at large to identify and address the needs of persons with disabilities within the community. Comment On May 29, 2017, the Frontenac Accessibility Advisory Committee held a Public Meeting as required under Section 80.8 of the Design of Public Spaces Standard which mandates that obligated organizations consult with the public, persons with disabilities and their Accessibility Advisory committees before constructing new or redeveloping existing recreational trails. As part of that public meeting, staff sought feedback from both members of the public and the Committee with respect to Trail signs, which in accordance with the IASR, must include the following:
The length of the trail. The type of surface which the trail is constructed. The average and minimum trail width. The average and maximum running slope and cross slope. The location of amenities where provided.

AGENDA ITEM #c)
The draft sign attached as Appendix A is in line with the Design of Public Spaces regulations which the Manager of Economic Development had spoken about with the committee at its May 29th meeting. These signs are 18”x24” and will be posted at almost every intersection along the trail. Depending on available funding, it may take several years to implement signage along the entire length of the trail; however these signs are required by legislation as part of the current construction project from Tichborne to Sharbot Lake. Appendix B illustrates the signs along the City of Kingston portion of the K&P trail. The County signs were adapted to be consistent with the City of Kingston signs to make wayfinding and navigation from the City portion to the County portion of the trail more user friendly and accessible, and users would not be required to decipher two different types of signage. Staff are seeking feedback and support from the Committee regarding these proposed signs. Sustainability Implications Creating barrier-free communities through accessibility planning will enhance the County’s goal of sustainability in both the social and economic pillars of the County’s sustainability plan. As stated in Directions for Our Future, social sustainability is based on equity, diversity, connectivity, democracy and a good quality of life. It further states that economic development takes health, community, education, and environmental and social objectives into account. Financial Implications There are no direct financial implications associated with this report.
