That the County of Frontenac Planning Advisory Committee recommend to County Council the approval of the 2021 work plan for the Planning and Economic Development as it relates to planning matters; and Further, that the Director provide an overview to County Council as part of the 2021 budget deliberations as well as the Councils of the three municipalities which the department provides planning services.

Councillor Doyle indicated that Option 2 in regards to staffing should not impact the municipality if we can adjusting the fees to cover the additional staff member. He indicated that there should be flexibility with these fees. Deputy Warden Vandewal asked if there are any other cost saving methods in the recommendations for the service delivery review other than speeding up applications or giving delegated authority. He indicated that he has spoken to his council and that South Frontenac will be seeking delegation for the approval of plans of subdivision application following the approval of the new Township Official Plan.

Councillor Higgins asked for clarification in regards to Mr. Gallivan’s 2021 Business Plan; he noted that it seems to strictly be focused on planning and inquired about staffing considerations for the economic development side of the department.

AGENDA ITEM #a)

Councillor Higgins asked if some of the workload that is being completed by the planning department in regards to enforcement can that be addressed by a by-law officer instead of being completed through planning. Ms. Rueckwald answered that planning staff are involved when concerns of non-compliance are related to the zoning bylaw; typically by-law enforcement of the CAO consults with planning staff to ensure the by-law is interpreted correctly. The property owner often then speaks to planning staff through a pre-application meeting to determine how, if at all, the infraction could be brought into compliance. 8
