Report to Council Development Services - Planning Public Meeting Report – Zoning Bylaw Amendment Report Date:
January 30, 2019
Application No:
Z-19/01
Owner:
548883 Ontario Limited (Briscoe)
Location of Property:
Concession 8, Part Lot 15, Part 1, Reference Plan 13R21788, District of Storrington, Township of South Frontenac, municipally known as 4065 Hiawatha Lane Purpose of Application: Rezone from from Resort Recreational Commercial Exception 4 (RRC-4) to Limited Service Residential – Waterfront (RLSW) as a condition of a consent application S-63-18-S Date of Public Meeting: February 5, 2019
Recommendation It is recommended that South Frontenac Council receive comments from the public and pending comments received to direct staff to prepare a bylaw to rezone the subject lands from Resort Recreational Commercial Exception 4 (RRC-4) to Limited Service Residential – Waterfront (RLSW) to rezone the one new lot created by consent application S-63-18-S.
Proposal An application has been submitted to amend the Township of South Frontenac Comprehensive Zoning Bylaw 2003-75 to rezone the subject property owned by 548883 Ontario Limited (Briscoe) from Resort Recreational Commercial Exception 4 (RRC-4) to Limited Service Residential – Waterfront (RLSW) in order to fulfill condition 8 of consent application S-63-18-S for the creation of one new waterfront lot that was processed by the Township in September 2018. Under the Planning Act, a public meeting is required to be held to receive comments from citizens on the proposed rezoning. With the information presented, planning staff are recommending that Council receive comments but defer passing a bylaw until a later Council meeting to allow staff to incorporate comments received.
Background The subject property has received provisional consent approval for application S-63-18-S for the creation for one new waterfront lot consisting of 76 metres of frontage on Hiawatha Lane and 305 metres of waterfront along Dog Lake consisting of 2.5 acres in area. The subject property is currently developed with a seasonal residential dwelling. An existing cottage and accessory building are located to the north of the dwelling which are required to be removed in order to meet Condition 8 of consent application S-63-18-S. The majority of the property is naturally vegetated. Hideaway Lane is located to the east of the subject lot. The retained lands consist of approximately 50 acres in area with approximately 900 feet of frontage along Dog Lake and over 1 km of private roads dissecting the property. No further development is proposed for the retained lands at this time. The retained lands owned by 548883 Ontario Ltd. (Briscoe) will continue to be zoned Resort Recreational Commercial Exception 4 (RRC-4). Provincial Policy Statement, 2014 The 2014 Provincial Policy Statement (PPS) provides direction on matters of Provincial interest related to land use planning and development. The PPS promotes efficient land use and development patterns that support strong, liveable and healthy communities, protect the environment and public health and safety, and facilitate economic growth. Section 2: Wise Use and Management of Resources of the PPS contains policies that encourage the protection of natural heritage, water, 1
Page 5 of 121
Report to Council Development Services - Planning agricultural, mineral and cultural heritage and archaeological resources for their economic, environmental and social benefits. The proposed rezoning will restrict the permitted uses on the lands to be added and the new lot being created to those that are compatible with a waterfront lot that is accessible by a private road. Frontenac County Official Plan, 2016 The subject property is designated as Rural in the Frontenac County Official Plan. Policies of the Rural designation speak to the lands utilized as an alternative location for those persons preferring a rural residential lifestyle. Low density residential development is desirable provided it is appropriately located. As the property contains an existing seasonal dwelling, the property complies with the Rural policies set out in the County Official Plan. Township of South Frontenac Official Plan, 2003 The subject property is designated as Rural in the Township of South Frontenac Official Plan. Policies of the Rural designation speak to permitting development that is consistent with maintaining the Township’s rural, natural heritage, and cultural landscape. The new waterfront lot received provisional consent on September 13, 2018 as the application conforms with the Official Plan. Township of South Frontenac Comprehensive Zoning Bylaw, 2003 The property is zoned Resort Recreational Commercial Exception 4 (RRC-4) in the Township of South Frontenac Comprehensive Zoning Bylaw. The intent of the RRC-4 zone is to permit uses that are compatible with a resort commercial use. As a condition of provisional consent, the severed lands are proposed to be rezoned to Limited Service Residential – Waterfront (RLSW) as the severed land is proposed to be used as a residential use with an existing cottage. The retained lands owned by 548883 Ontario Limited (Briscoe) continue to meet the provisions of the Resort Recreational Commercial Exception 4 (RRC-4). The Limited Service Residential – Waterfront (RLSW) zone is the most appropriate zoning for the lots that are accessed by a private lane and have water frontage.
Agency Analysis and Comments Comments were not required from KFL&A Public Health nor Cataraqui Region Conservation Authority as no new development was proposed for the creation of the new lot. Both agencies had no objections to the severance at the time of provisional consent.
Public Comments At the time of writing, no formal comments have been received from the public. The intent of the public meeting is to receive comments from the public.

Report to Council Development Services - Planning Public Meeting Report – Zoning Bylaw Amendment Report Date:
January 30, 2019
Application No:
Z-19/02
Owner:
Doornekamp (Agent: Pritchard)
Location of Property:
Concession 3, Part Lot 20, District of Bedford, Township of South Frontenac, municipally known as 114 Northwood Lane
Purpose of Application: Rezone from from Rural (RU) to Residential Limited Service Waterfront (RWLS) as a condition of a consent application S-96-18-B Date of Public Meeting: February 5, 2019
Recommendation It is recommended that South Frontenac Council receive comments from the public and pending comments received to direct staff to prepare a bylaw to change the zoning on the subject lands from Rural (RU) to Residential Limited Service Waterfront (RWLS) to rezone the lands severed from 88 Northwood Lane to enlarge an abutting property addressed as 114 Northwood Lane by consent application S-96-18-B.
Proposal An application has been submitted to amend the Township of South Frontenac Comprehensive Zoning Bylaw 2003-75 to rezone the subject property owned by Rene Doornekamp from Rural (RU) to Residential Limited Service Waterfront (RWLS) in order to fulfill condition 8 of consent application S-96-18-B to have the severed lands be rezoned to create a consistent zone with the benefitting lands. Under the Planning Act, a public meeting is required to be held to receive comments from citizens on the proposed rezoning. With the information presented, planning staff are recommending that Council receive comments but defer passing a bylaw until a later Council meeting to allow staff to incorporate comments received.
Background The subject property has received provisional consent approval for application S-96-18-B for the conveyance of a lot addition from an existing rural property located at Part Lot 20, Concession 3, District of Bedford, municipally known as 88 Northwood Lane, to an abutting property municipally known as 114 Northwood Lane. The subject property has frontage on Northwood Lane with water frontage on Bobs Lakes and is developed with an existing residential dwelling. The parcel will increase in size from 0.9 acres to just under 2.0 acres which will bring the lot closer to compliance with the current provisions for waterfront residential lots. The increase in lot size will provide the owner with the ability to construct a garage on the property. The retained lands consist of approximately 53 acres in area with approximately 500 metres of frontage along Green Bay Road and Northwood Lane. No further development is proposed for the retained lands at this time, though sufficient area exists for future development. The retained lands will continue to be zoned Rural (RU). Provincial Policy Statement, 2014 The 2014 Provincial Policy Statement (PPS) provides direction on matters of Provincial interest related to land use planning and development. The PPS promotes efficient land use and development patterns that support strong, liveable and healthy communities, protect the environment and public health and safety, and facilitate economic growth. When assessing consent applications on rural 1
Page 9 of 121
Report to Council Development Services - Planning lands, planning authorities must comply with Section 1.1.5.1 of the PPS; this section requires application of relevant policy of Section 1: Building Healthy Communities, Section 2: Wise Use and Management of Recourses, and Section 3: Protecting Public Health and Safety by the approval authority. Section 1: Section 1.1.5.2 of the PPS permits limited residential development on rural lands including resource-based recreational uses and Section 1.1.5.4 promotes development that is compatible with the rural landscape and can be sustained by rural service levels. The proposed lot addition will increase the benefitting lands to create a lot that brings the lot closer into compliance the Limited Service Waterfront Residential zone provisions in the Township’s Zoning Bylaw. Section 2: Wise Use and Management of Resources of the PPS contains policies that encourage the protection of natural heritage, water, agricultural, mineral and cultural heritage and archaeological resources for their economic, environmental and social benefits. Rideau Valley Conservation Authority reviewed the proposal within the context of Section 2 of the PPS. RVCA have no objection to the lot addition. Section 3: Protecting Public Health and Safety directs development away from areas of natural or human-made hazards where there is an unacceptable risk to public health or safety or of property damage. The application was circulated to the Rideau Valley Conservation Authority for review of natural hazards under the PPS. RVCA did not note any natural hazards on the subject property. County of Frontenac Official Plan, 2016 The County of Frontenac Official Plan is a framework for guiding development in the County through the management and protection of the natural environment and by providing direction and influence on growth patterns. It is focused on the six themes of economic sustainability, growth management, community building, housing and social services, heritage and culture, and environmental sustainability. Section 3.3 Rural Lands provides policies for all lands outside of the settlement areas. The Plan recognizes that rural lands are used as an alternative location for those preferring a rural lifestyle. The proposed consent application will increase the size of the befitting lands to bring the lands closer into compliance with the Township’s Official Plan. Township of South Frontenac Official Plan, 2003 The subject property and benefitting lands are designated as Rural in the Township of South Frontenac Official Plan. Policies of the Rural designation speak to permitting development that is consistent with maintaining the Township’s rural, natural heritage, and cultural landscape. Section 5.7.4 Rural Residential Policies permit limited non-agricultural development within the Rural area. As a rule, the minimum lot sizes are to be 2 acres (0.8 hectares) with 76 metres (250 feet) of frontage along a public road; the retained lands will exceed these requirements. The proposal will bring the benefitting waterfront residential lands closer into conformity with the policies for lot sizes for waterfront residential lots. Township of South Frontenac Zoning Bylaw The subject property is zoned Rural (RU) in the Township Zoning Bylaw. The intent of the Rural zoning is to permit a variety of uses including agricultural and residential. The benefitting lands are zoned Limited Services Residential – Waterfront (RLSW) in the Township Zoning Bylaw. The consent application will increase the size of the benefitting lands to come closer to being in compliance with the zoning provisions. Planning staff are of the opinion that the most appropriate zone for the severed parcel is RLSW to recognize that the lot is accessible by private lane and has frontage along Bobs Lake and to be consistent with the benefitting lot.
Agency Analysis and Comments Comments were not required from KFL&A Public Health nor Rideau Valley Conservation Authority. Both agencies had no objections to the severance at the time of provisional consent. 2

Karin Steiner-Bell, Director and Christine Bell, re: New Leaf Link - 2019 Budget Karin Steiner-Bell provided an overview of the role of New Leaf Link. Currently they are offering a two day per week program which is already funded however they would like to expand their program to three days per week and are asking Council to consider funding the extra day within the 2019 budget.

b)
Will Waddell and Kari Cunningham on behalf of Bluewater Cottagers Association, re; Massassauga Road - 2019 Budget
Page 14 of 121 Minutes of Council January, 22, 2019 Will Waddell circulated to Council members and staff photos of the road condition of Massassauga Road. He noted there is a constant stream of mud and drivers have to go very slowly. He felt that the use of salt and sand has added to the deterioration of the road. In estimating the revenue through taxation for property owners in the area he felt there should be something done for the road as there has not been anything done in years other than grading. Kari Cunningham, on behalf of the Blue Water Park Association asked for Council’s consideration into fixing the road. Councillor Revill suggested that Council request an update from the Director of Public Services on the surface material. He noted that he is aware of times when the road was “tricky” to drive on and felt this warrants review. Councillor Ruttan noted that Massassauga Road is not unlike other roads in South Frontenac and supported Councillor Revill’s suggestion for a report as he felt this is a consistent problem with this road. c)
Andy Adamson, Director and President, Portland District and Area Heritage Society, re: 2019 Budget Mr. Adamson spoke to the plans for new presentations in 2019 with a focus on the World War 1 era with regular revolving displays which will broaden the museums appeal and be more valuable to all South Frontenac residents. They are appreciative of the storage for artifacts that have been made available at Glendower Hall. To accomplish these goals a funding request of $3000 in the 2019 budget would be used towards the process of developing a strategic plan. Deputy Mayor Sleeth inquired about their process to present a “South Frontenac Museum” campaign. Mr. Adamson indicated that the goal is to have their signage changed to take to local festivals and events for promotion before the annual general meeting.
d)
John Fuller, Stair Step Lane, Battersea, re: 2019 Budget and Tax Increase Mr. Fuller voiced his concerns about the change in budget that involves the transition from a flat rate for waste management of $120.00 to being rolled into the tax levy. This resulted in a 6.3% increase in his taxes and he felt this was unfair to those with higher assessments. Mr. Fuller felt this should have been better communicated to the taxpayer as the flat rate had been a standard practice for 20 years.

Reports Requiring Direction
a)
2019 Draft Budget Staff reviewed the taxation primer and budget document and addressed questions. Council provided the following direction and or comment: • Staff were asked to bring forward a report on the Massassauga Rd, addressing the condition, cause and what has been done to date. • Canoe/Kayak ramp was DEFERRED pending discussion and prioritization by SFRC. A Local entrepreneur on Buck Lake has invented a relatively inexpensive solution. Councillor Sutherland to forward contact information. • The Public Services Committee is asked to investigate and consider a large item pick up program. • Council was supportive of New Leaf Link and directed staff to provide a $2000 Community Grant and a subsequent Council Grant of $2000 this year and commit a $4000 Council grant in 2020. Staff were directed to inquire if CF or NF provide any funding given that they have residents participating in the program. • Staff were directed to include the museum grant of $3000 • Council was supportive of increasing community grants by $20,000 and directed the Corporate Services Committee to revisit the scope and terms of the grant program to include supporting festivals and events . • Staff were directed to add a further $20,000 of contracted brushing to the 2019 budget. Staff were asked to confirm the dollar value of brushing budgeted to be done by staff. • Staff were asked to look at alternatives for funding these two initiatives. • Staff, members of Council and Inverary Youth to sit down and discuss a long term viable solution and to bring back recommendations • Council was supportive of the Mechanic, however the priority needs to be on addressing the PW fleet and only if there is excess capacity or an emergency should the mechanics deal with the Fire Fleet. • Staff confirmed to Council that trees will be addressed as they are
Page 22 of 121 Committee of the Whole January 26, 2019 identified in the various cemeteries. This may force the budget line over budget, but that this would likely be balanced out over the entire budget. • Staff confirmed that there is no new staff to support a night shift included within the budget • The Lake Study grant program was the subject of debate, however no funds were directed to this. Page 16: • Line 32 There was no support for creating a commuter parking lot. The funding will be HELD in the budget for staff to report back on what it would take to provide a turnaround for Township trucks • Line 33 Guide rails: the Public Services Committee was asked to explore with staff alternatives to the type of guiderail we install and if there are alternatives for different situations • Line 35 and 36 Storrington and Hartington Fuel Systems both put on HOLD, pending a report detailing the need, the frequency of use, the alternatives and what cost savings would be generated • Line 56 Keeley renovations, Council not opposed to the need, however project placed on HOLD until the plans are brought forward to Council and the basis for the cost estimate is clarified • Line 58 relocation of communication tower is not supported if the only benefit is improved convenience for grass cutting. Staff to report back if there is improved reception anticipated or if there is a need for the space occupied by the current tower. • Line 59 Council expressed concern about the life span of the building covers. Staff explained that while there is warranty value still left, when the labour cost with this builder is factored in it is more affordable to go with an alternate. The roof is currently patched and needs to be ultimately replaced. • Line 67 OPP generator to be placed on HOLD, further discussion on the requirements raised by the OPP need to take place Page 17 • Line 88 Dog park – on HOLD pending a breakdown of costs; Council supportive of walkway, but the community should be funding all other amenities • Line 89 Gilmour Point – HOLD pending the plans and cost estimate being brought forward to Council for adoption • Line 90 – outdoor movie screen to be removed • Line 91 – staff were questioned why the Storrington expansion was not considered as part of the original scope of work. Page 18 • Council questioned how they could better support Pubic Services in being more fiscally responsible and accountable for costs. Is there a better way to determine the costing estimates. Do we have the staff expertise and time in house to formalize these calculations. Is there a better alternative to loose estimates. Are there cost estimates prepared that Council is unaware of? Is the contract language reviewed externally and does it protect our interests well enough? Do staff have the skills and time to provide oversight and review of design, prior to approval and construction? A report from the Public Services Director is required on this matter. • Staff were asked when Council approved the new street vane signage used in Harrowsmith. Concern on its visibility was raised. Page 8 • Staff were asked the cost of an additional police officer for speed enforcement. It was pointed out that even if council funded another officer, s/he would still be called to priority calls and not be exclusively focused on speed. Page 11 • Staff were asked for the amount of money spent on maintenance of public works half ton vehicles, so that a comparison to electric vehicles could be calculated • Staff will need to provide a clear rationale, address questions and explore options before Council will endorse a night shift

Please be advised that Hamilton City Council at its meeting of December 19, 2018, approved Item 7.3, which reads as follows: 7.3 Maintaining the Voters" List for Municipal Elections WHEREAS, concerns over the quality of the Municipal Voters List is not a new phenomenon;
WHEREAS, in 2012, the Association of Municipal Managers, Clerks and Treasurers of Ontario (AMCTO) published a Voters List Position Paper and since that time has been advocating for transformational changes to the way that Ontario creates and maintains the Voters’ List for municipal elections; WHEREAS, the Preliminary List of Electors, which forms the Voters’ List in Ontario, is supplied by data from the Municipal Property Assessment Corporation
(MPAC); WHEREAS, despite the incremental changes made by MPAC, MPAC has a limited ability to fix the currency and accuracy issues that impairs the current
Page 26 of 121 Maintaining the Voters’ List for Municipal Elections
Page 2 of 4 process and the Voters List continues to be flawed with data inaccuracies and outdated information; and, WHEREAS, a transformational solution to the way that the Voters’ List is created and managed is required;
THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED: (a) That the Council of the City of Hamilton supports the re-establishment of the multi-stakeholder working group between the Ministry of Municipal Affairs, Ministry of Finance, AMCTO, MPAC, Elections Canada and Elections Ontario in exploring and identifying ways to create and maintain the Voters List for Municipal Elections; (b) That Council requests an update be provided from this Voters’ List Working Group on the transformational solutions being discussed; (c) That representatives from MPAC be invited to a future General Issues Committee meeting to hear the City of Hamilton’s concerns (attached
hereto) and advise the City on what steps MPAC will be taking in the future; (d) That a letter of concerns respecting the Voter’s List for Municipal Elections and a request for investigation be forwarded to the Ombudsman’s Office; and,
(e) That a copy of this motion, respecting the Voter’s List for Municipal Elections be circulated to all municipalities and the Association of
Municipalities of Ontario (AMO).
On behalf of Hamilton City Council, we thank you for your consideration respecting this very important matter and look forward to your response. Sincerely,
Stephanie Paparella Legislative Coordinator

Page 27 of 121 Maintaining the Voters’ List for unicipal Elections
Page 3 of 4 The City of Hamilton is looking to the Working Group to find resolutions that would include, but not be limited to, the following matters that were encountered during the 2018 municipal election process:
(a) Neighbours on the same Voter Notification Cards (VNC); (b) Polling locations not matching the address; (c) Incorrect mailing addresses; (d) Electors showing up at an address who had never lived there;
(e) Addresses outside of the polling subdivision; (f) Incorrect names on the VNCs;
(g) Entire buildings missed; (h) Completed the EL15 last Election and still not on the Voters List; (i) No units listed in buildings; and, (j) Electors who had lived at their residence for many years not receiving a VNC.
The responsibility of adding the Applications to Amend, Correct and Delete forms has now been downloaded from MPAC to the municipalities. In the case of the City of Hamilton, it required the inputting of over 27,000 applications into the Datafix program;
with the legislated deadline for inputting these applications being 30 days from Election Day, which became a very labour intensive and time-consuming task. Forms that could not be inserted into the Datafix program within the 30-day deadline, were not accepted by MPAC; leaving some of the elector submitted corrections undone and to remain incorrect for the next election. MPAC has agreed to keep the Voter Look Up program available all year round rather than just in an election year; leaving the obligation of improving the Voters List with the elector and the municipalities. It was suggested that a campaign be commenced by preparing a drop off card for every household in the city (each municipality would manage their own). This card could include all aspects of adding, correcting and deleting information from the Voters’ List. It should also include how to deal with situational voters such as borders, tenants, family members and students.
After the drop off program has concluded, and in conjunction with the appropriate communications strategy, municipalities should continue, on a quarterly basis, to remind electors to check the Voter Look Up program on their respective municipalities website to ensure their information is correct. In an election year, this program could be expanded to a monthly basis and include radio and print advertisements to reinforce to the elector that the responsibility of ensuring they are correctly included on the voters list on Election Day is their own.
Page 28 of 121 Maintaining the Voters’ List for Municipal Elections
Page 4 of 4 Municipalities continue to pay for and use an inaccurate, outdated product (voters list). Unless there is a proactive strategy in place for the preparation of a much more accurate voters list for all municipalities, the same issues will most likely occur in 2022.

REPORT TO COUNCIL CLERK’S DEPARTMENT
AGENDA DATE:
February 5, 2019
SUBJECT:
Ad Bag Delivery/Local Newspapers
RECOMMENDATION: Open BACKGROUND: At the inaugural meeting of Council on December 4, 2018 Mayor Vandewal served a notice of motion that ad bags no longer be thrown alongside the road by local newspapers distributors. At the December 18, 2018 Council meeting Council directed staff to review the regulations with regard to ad bag delivery and to review the options for restricting the practice of them being thrown alongside roads in South Frontenac. The Waste Management By-law 2005-98, Part VII, Clause 40 states that “No person shall throw, place or deposit waste, refuse, debris or garbage on private property or Municipal property, on any roadway within the boundaries of the Municipality or any property owned or operated by any such local board thereof within the authority of the owner or occupant of such property”. If a littering problem exists which requires enforcement, this would be the basis to address the issue. A report came before Council on April 25, 2017 from Forbes Symon, Manager of Development Services. At that time there were two local newspapers being delivered door to door throughout the township. The Regional Director for Distribution of Metroland (Frontenac Gazette at that time but no longer operational) indicated they had an established proactive code of conduct designed to minimize associated littering concerns and had a cottage reduction program whereby the number of papers placed in newspaper boxes on “cottage” routes were reduced in the fall and increased again in the spring. The Frontenac News continues to use Canada Post to deliver their product as mail to individual mail boxes and community mail boxes. Staff reached out to Rob McLellan, the Distribution Supervisor for Eastern Ontario Communities for Post Media about this concern. The “Frontenac This Week” is produced and printed by “Kingston This Week” a local newspaper with distribution in the city and includes portions of South Frontenac for their “Frontenac This Week” distribution. Mr. McLellan was very receptive to assisting with this concern and indicated that residents who do not wish to receive the newspaper can contact the distribution office by calling Mr. McLellan at 544-5000 Ext 547147 and providing their civic number and street address to have it cancelled, or the service suspended. In order to address the issue of having newspapers left alongside township roads, staff recommends that we initiate an awareness campaign of the problem and provide residents with the alternative of having newspaper deliveries cancelled. The newspapers that are discovered after the snow is gone that were delivered throughout the winter could also be included as part of the focus for Pitch-In Week in April, weekly advertising and social media. Another alternative would be to provide a box at the township office whereby interested residents could pick up copies of local newspapers instead of having them delivered.

Citizen Appointee to Police Services Board
RECOMMENDATION: That By-law 2019-08, being a by-law to amend By-law 2019-05, to appoint a citizen to the Police Services Board be approved. BACKGROUND: Council will recall that at the January 22, 2019 Council meeting, appointments were made to various committees for the Council term 2018 to 2022. Two citizens submitted their names for consideration to the South Frontenac Police Services Board – Edward Puszkar and Mike Nolan. Council appointed Edward Puszkar, however Mr. Puszkar has since indicated that he would like his name removed for consideration. Staff recommends the appointment of Mr. Nolan to the Board as he initially indicated his interest in this position. A by-law has been prepared and presented for Council’s consideration.

REPORT TO COUNCIL DEVELOPMENT SERVICES DEPARTMENT AGENDA DATE:
February 5, 2019
REPORT DATE:
January 31, 2019
SUBJECT:
Assumption of Road Widenings
RECOMMENDATION: The recommendation is that Council pass By-law # 2019-07 to assume road widenings as part of common highways. BACKGROUND: As consent applications are approved to create new lots in the Township, owners are sometimes required to dedicate land for road widening purposes where the subject land abuts a public road. The Planning Department needs to be shown that the road widening has been registered and transferred to the municipality before final approval of a consent is given. Attachment #1 hereto indicates where certain lands have been dedicated to the Township as a condition of consent approval - now to be assumed. The ownership of the road widenings shown on the attachment have already been transferred to the Township, but they still need to be assumed as part of the system of public highways. By-law #2019-07 would so assume these road widenings. By-law #2019-07 includes road widenings that have been deeded to the Township since mid-2017 (the last time a road widening assumption by-law was passed). It also includes a number of road widenings that have been requested to be assumed by lawyers representing purchasers, where through real estate transactions it became apparent that a previous road widening had not been assumed by the Township. FINANCIAL/STAFFING IMPLICATIONS: N/A ATTACHMENTS: Attachment 1:
Location maps showing road widenings to be assumed through By-law 2019-07. Maps are ordered to correlate with the numbered list of road widenings in the by-law. For example: Attachment #1 – see #1, By-law 2019-07 shows the location of the first road widening listed in By-law 2019-07.

REPORT TO COUNCIL DEVELOPMENT SERVICES DEPARTMENT AGENDA DATE:
February 5, 2019
REPORT DATE:
January 30, 2019
SUBJECT:
Long Bay Camp, Bobs Lake Request to Create Right-of-Way
RECOMMENDATION: THAT Council authorize the Clerk and the Mayor to sign the acknowledgements and direction to facilitate the transfer and creation of a right-of-way over Part 7, RP 13R18972 in favour of the owners of Long Bay Camp, Bobs Lake BACKGROUND: Planning staff were recently approached by Mr. Dave Heeley of Barker Wilson LLP. Mr. Heeley is acting on behalf of the current owner of the Long Bay Camp on Bobs Lake, Burridge Road. There is currently a purchase and sale agreement to sell the Camp. Through the due diligence of the purchaser’s lawyer, it has come to the attention of the parties that there was never a right of way registered over Part 7 of RP 13R18972 in favour of the Camp. In 2008, the Township worked with the owners of the Camp to facilitate the severance of a house along Burridge Road that was surplus to their requirements. In order to facilitate the severance, a portion of an unopened road allowance (Parts 2 & 7) was stopped up, closed and sold to the Camp. The Camp provided Part 6 of RP 13R-18972 to the Township in exchange for the closing of Parts 2 & 7. Shortly after the transfer, the Camp owners applied to South Frontenac Committee of Adjustment to create a new lot that included the surplus house and the closed road allowance (Parts 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, and 8). This lot is addressed as 1659 Burridge Road. When the deed was created for 1659 Burridge Road, a right-of-way for access in favour of Long Bay Camp was registered on Parts 4 and 11 (Campground Lane). Parts 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7 and 8 were transferred to the owner of 1659 Burridge Road without reserving a right-of-way over Part 7. At the same time that the lot was created (1659 Burridge Road) the Township was deeded a road widening (Parts 10, 11 & 12). A by-law was never passed assuming these Parts as part of the common highway. Mr. Heeley has requested the Township pass an assumption by-law to make Parts 10, 11 and 12 part of the common and public road. Planning staff are supportive of passing an assumption by-law for these Parts and have prepared a separate report and assumption by-law that includes assuming Parts 10, 11 & 12, RP 13R18972, along with several other road widenings. This report will also be presented at the February 5th Council meeting. The lawyers involved in the current sale of the Camp are working to establish a rightof-way in favour of the Camp over Part 7 which is part of the 1659 Burridge Road property. Based on the review of property file information and documentation relating to the severance application, it would appear that not reserving a right-of-way over Part 7 was an omission at the time the deed was registered for 1659 Burridge Road. Our strength is our community.
Page 45 of 121
REPORT TO COUNCIL DEVELOPMENT SERVICES DEPARTMENT
Mr. Heeley is requesting the Township be willing to receive the transfer of Part 7 from the owner of 1659 Burridge Road and hold title to this parcel of land for approximately 10 minutes. Long enough for Mr. Heeley to register a right of way over Part 7, using the Townships authority to do so. Once the right-of-way is registered, Part 7 will be transferred to the owner of 1659 Burridge Road, with the benefit of a right-of-way over Part 7. The other option for Mr. Heeley is to go through the regular consent process to apply to the Committee of Adjustment to create a right-of-way over Part 7. This process could take as much as 6 months and would impact the sale of the Camp. Planning staff and the CAO have reviewed the proposal by Mr. Heeley and have no concerns about to entering into the acknowledgement and direction to facilitate the creation of the right-of-way over Part 7 in favour of Long Bay Camp. This will resolve a long standing legal access issue. Council authorization is required for the Clerk and the Mayor to enter into the acknowledgement and direction to facilitate the transfer and creation of the right-ofway over Part 7. FINANCIAL/STAFFING IMPLICATIONS: None – all legal expenses will be covered by the current owner of Long Bay Camp.

I have been informed that the request for approval should be addressed to you. On those dates we will be hosting a two‐day Spring Fling Music Festival Fundraiser at the Ken Garrett Memorial Park located at 4010 Moreland Dixon Road in Inverary. This will be a multi‐event fundraiser to assist the Inverary Youth Group to complete required renovations at the park.

Subject: Noise By-Law Exemption Request for June Hello Wayne, Myself and Adam Lake would like to be present for the Tuesday February 5 council meeting. In response to the questions that you have asked: Will this be a family event or an adult only function? Yes this will be a family event with an area that will contain children specific activities. Will there be alcohol sold at the event? Yes there will be alcohol sold at the event. A designated, fenced in area will be identified and will be under the Little Texas Roadhouse Bar and Grill liquor license. Volunteers with the appropriate SmartServe certification and volunteers with Security licenses will be assigned to the area. No alcohol will be permitted outside of the designated area. Will there be food sold at the event? Yes, it is anticipated that there will be four food trucks on site for this event. Have permits been obtained from the LCBO and Public Health? Not at this time – my original contact with the Township said to hold off until a noise by-law exemption was approved for the event. Representatives have been contacted, but nothing formal has been initiated. Will there be marque style tents, or staging erected? Yes there will be a stage as well as tents at the event. Has a building permit been obtained from the Township? Not at this time – as noted above, I was advised to hold off until a noise by-law exemption was approved for the event. Is appropriate insurance in place that indemnifies the Township? We will need a copy Yes – Little Texas Roadhouse Bar and Grill’s insurance will be in place for the event. Have the OPP been engaged in the event planning discussions? Will they be present at the event? The OPP will be contacted (upon receiving a noise by-law exemption) and it is anticipated that they will be present at the event. Thank you, Kimberley Allan

REPORT TO COUNCIL OFFICE OF C.A.O.
AGENDA DATE:
February 5, 2019
SUBJECT:Code of Conduct, Complaint Protocol and Council Staff Relationship Policy RECOMMENDATION: That a Bylaw to be developed subject to final feedback from Counicl BACKGROUND: Changes to the Municipal Act require Council to adopt a Code of Conduct including a complaint protocol and a Council Staff Relations Policy by March 1, 2019. Jointly the Frontenac’s have engaged an Integrity Commissioner to interpret, apply and enforce the Code and Policy. The attached policies have been before Council twice now and are brought forward for a final time to prior to scheduled adoption on February 19. Councillor Sutherland has raised specific questions about the Code and these have been forwarded to the Integrity Commissioner for comment (see indented questions and responses quoted below). I have questions on three clauses:
- Section 2.2 point six says “….to maintain and promote trust in the Township.” There is an ambiguity in this statement that could cause unreasonable conflict. Part of a Councillors job is to question activities of the Township that they think are not in the public interest. Some would argue that this questioning could undermine public trust in the Township. For instance, public trust in built by the Township making sound financial decisions and proper oversight of finances. If a Councillor suspected that there was poor oversight, it would be reasonable, if not expected, that they would raise this concern for discussion. This questioning should not be restricted by a possible complaint under the Code of Conduct that questioning the Township’s practices is undermining trust in the Township. My suggestion is that that last clause be left out. RESPONSE: Section 2.2 comprised the key principles that underlie the Code and aid in its interpretation and application. Section 2.2 and its articulates of the principles do not comprises operational standards that may be enforced. I think a council member raises questions about matters promotes the public trust as opposed to undermining it. None of my municipalities have questioned or objected to the inclusion of this particular wording or clause.
- Section 4.1 (g), I am not sure what the internet is of the clause “respect council’s Decisions making Process.” For instance, would this preclude a Councillor from supporting an LPAT challenge to a decision of Council? Or preclude a Councillor from advocating to overturn a decision of Council. Barring any further clarity on the meaning the words, the clause “and respect Council’s decision-making process,” should be removed leaving the sentence to read “accurately communicate the decisions of Council even if they disagree with Council’s ultimate determinations and rulings.” RESPONSE: I do not have a problem with the council member’s suggested wording. In fact, I am taking note of it as the language and the intent of the modification is very good.
- Section 7 (2) is too permissive. For instance, point (c) allows a Councillor to receive services that are voluntarily provided. This seems to allow a contractor to Our strength is our community.
Page 52 of 121
REPORT TO COUNCIL OFFICE OF C.A.O.
voluntarily fix your deck or a caterer to supply your party for free when that contractor or caterer could be bidding for Township contracts. Similarly (g) the figure of $300 is too high for gifts from parties engaged in business with the Township. Even though these gifts would have to be disclosed, that is not sufficient: they should be excluded if there is the appearance of improper influence. RESPONSE: The dollar amount in Section 7.2(g) is really a policy decision for Council to make. I have seen dollar figures as low as (I think) $50 and as high as $500. Section 7.2(c) could certainly be scoped and clarified. Based on this feedback, changes have been proposed and are highlighted in yellow in the attached document (grey highlighting is the original language) Furthermore in the Council Staff policy, Council asked that the language be adapted to reflect the less formal communication between members and staff. These changes have also been highlighted in yellow with the original language shaded in grey. With Council’s concurrence, a bylaw will be drafted to adopt the Code including the delegation of enforcement to the Integrity Commissioner, the complaints protocol and the Council Staff relationship Policy FINANCIAL/STAFFING IMPLICATIONS: ATTACHMENTS:

A Member shall not accept a fee, advance, gift, gift certificate, cash, hospitality or any form of personal benefit connected directly or indirectly with the performance of his or her duties except as provided in Section 7.2. A gift, benefit or hospitality provided with the Member’s knowledge to a Member’s spouse, child, or parent, or to a Member’s staff that is connected directly or indirectly to the performance of the Member’s duties is deemed to be a gift to that Member. Any doubt concerning the propriety of the gift should be resolved by the Member not accepting or keeping it.
7.2
For greater clarity, despite Section 7.1, a Member is entitled to accept any compensation, remuneration or benefits authorized by law but shall not accept any gift or benefit other than in the following circumstances: (a)
such gifts or benefits that normally accompany the responsibilities of office and are received as an incident of protocol or social obligation;
(b)
a political contribution otherwise reported by law, in the case of a Member running for office;
(c)
services provided without compensation by persons volunteering their time;
(c)
services provided without compensation by persons volunteering their time, as it relates to an election campaign or charitable event;
(d)
nominal tokens, mementos or souvenirs received as an incident of protocol or social obligation that normally accompanies the responsibilities of elected office or at a function honouring the Member;
(e)
food, lodging, transportation and entertainment provided by provincial, regional and local governments or any agencies or subdivisions of them or by the federal government or by a foreign government within a foreign country, or by a conference, seminar or event organizer where the Member is either speaking or attending in an official capacity as a representative of the Township;
(f)
entrance fees or food and beverages consumed at banquets, receptions or similar events, if: (i)
attendance serves a legitimate municipal business purpose related to the normal business of the Township,
Page 59 of 121
(ii)
the person extending the invitation or a representative of the organization is in attendance, and
(iii) the value is reasonable and the invitations are infrequent; (g)
gifts not having a value greater than $300;
(g)
gifts not having a value greater than $XXX
(h)
benefits received as a door prize, raffle or similar draw at an event, conference or seminar attended by the Member; and
(i)
any gift or benefit, if the Integrity Commissioner is of the opinion, before the gift or personal benefit has been accepted, that it is unlikely that receipt of the gift or benefit gives rise to a reasonable presumption that the gift or benefit was given in order to influence the Member in the performance of his or her duties.
7.3
A Member who has received and accepted a gift or benefit pursuant to Section 7.2 shall file a disclosure of the gift or benefit indicating the person, body or entity from which it was received together with the estimated value of the gift or benefit in accordance with the Disclosure Statement set out in Appendix “A”. The list shall be provided to the Clerk on an annual basis commencing on March 31 of every year and shall be a matter of public record.

Page 96 of 121 Frontenac Community Arena Report to Arena Board
AGENDA DATE: Wednesday January 16, 2019 SUBJECT: Ice Resurfacer Replacement The following report was prepared to provide information and a recommendation on the replacement of the Arenas Ice Resurfacer. RECOMMENDATION THAT The Arena Manager recommends that the Arena Board approve the purchase a new electric ice resurfacer funded by a combination of Capital Reserve, grants and donations. AND THAT, the Arena Manager recommends purchasing the Engo Red Wolf over the Olympia Millennium Electric. BACKGROUND The Frontenac Community Arena currently has a 2000 model year Olympia Millennium Propane ice resurfacer purchased used in 2002. Typically Ice resurfacers have a 15-18 year life cycle depending on usage and conditions. Our current Olympia continues to have maintenance issues and we are starting to experience more frequent service disruptions as a result. As part of the 2019 Budget process the Arena Manager is recommending the replacement of the current Ice Resurfacer with a new unit. In order to get a better sense of costs, the Arena Manager undertook a Tender process using Biddingo. Through the Tender Process we requested information on both Propane and Electric options and received a response from two Companies. These being ResurfIce Corp (Olympia) and Joe Johnson Equipment (Engo Red Wolf) with three machines being considered. The recommendation supporting an electric ice resurfacer over a propane unit, is based on the life cycle cost analysis along with the greatest value, being the environmental and health benefits offered by a zero emission ice resurfacer. The life cycle cost analysis attached demonstrates lower operating costs along with the following the environmental and health benefits:
Environmental Benefits:
The Frontenac Community Arena continues to take strides to reduce our energy consumption from both a cost savings factor and reduced environmental impact. Over the past few years, the arena has selected replacement equipment that meets this goal. An electric ice resurfacer will emit Zero emissions compared to emissions from a 4.3 L V6 propane powered unit. Therefore no carbon monoxide (CO) and nitrogen dioxide (NO2) will enter the atmosphere.
Public Benefits: Significance Factor
The Frontenac Community Arena continues to focus on providing a healthy and positive space for the Public. This includes giving consideration to the replacement of equipment that directly impacts on the health and safety of the staff and public. The purchase of a new ice resurfacer will increase the quality of ice produced, thus decrease the potential risk to users. The Frontenac Arena is also obligated to monitor the indoor air quality and limit the carbon monoxide and nitrogen dioxide as set out by the guidelines of several agencies. (Province of Ontario Public Services Health & Safety Association, Ontario Recreation Facility Association, Ministry of Labour) An electric ice resurfacer will improve the indoor air quality by eliminating the (CO) and (NO2) emission that collects near the surface of the ice resulting in players inhaling potential dangerous exhaust gases. An electric ice resurfacer will also eliminate the risks posed from leaking propane tanks. The noise level output of the propane powered resurfacers combustion engine ranges between 70-85 DBA with the Electric engine producing less than 5 DBA.

Page 97 of 121
Staff Benefits: Significance Factor •
Increased Safety for operators o Operators will no longer be exposed to CO and NO2 fumes o No risks due to leaking propane tanks We have had several incidents of propane leaking inside building when connected to machine or leaking outside in storage cage. There have been 8 incidents in past 3 years Outside leaking enters building through the fresh air feed Inside leaking presents a great risk to operators and potential for fire hazard o Reduced noise levels o Eliminate physical strain with handling propane tanks (30lbs empty to 60lbs full) Two tanks are carried/connected to machine each morning and removed end of day.
Building Envelope and Ice Making Benefit
The overhead exhaust fans must be turned on to vent the arena of dangerous emissions when a gas powered ice resurfacer is in use. This results in the dry air being pulled out of the arena and thus working against the dehumidification system resulting in increasing the load on the dehumidification and refrigeration system. Exhaust fans are operating 120 mins/weekday and 270 mins weekend days.
Unit Comparisons
The recommendation to purchase the Engo Red Wolf over the Olympia Millennium Electric is based on the life cycle costs, delivery date restrictions, unit specifications, information gathered from references, product demonstration, service support and the increased safety provided by the Engo quick blade change system. The Engo is also one of the only Electric Ice Resurfacers that was designed and built electric ground up as opposed to the Olympia Electric that is based on a gas model. The ‘life cycle cost analysis’ and ‘unit specification differences’ attached demonstrates lower costs and additional benefits between the two electric units being considered.
BUDGET IMPLICATIONS Unit Price: $165,000 Grants and Donations: $5,813 Hydro: $2813 (confirmed) Donations: $3000 Note: Our Minor Hockey organization and a few of our Leagues are willing to contribute an estimated $3,000 with the condition that we purchase an electric ice resurfacer.
Total to be funded from Capital Reserves: $159,187.00 Potential Additional Funding: The Arena Manager has submitted a grant application to Trillium to cover up to 75% of the Capital costs. Successful recipients will be notified by the end of January.
Other Considerations:
Does the Arena Board want to divest of the current Ice Resurfacer or keep it to support potential outdoor rink surface, loaner unit or other rationale? The approximate value if sold would be: $8-18K

We will do an off ice training session to begin. This is where we go over the entire machine including the maintenance. Next we drive out to the ice surface with the conditioner raised and have the Ice Crew get used the steering, spray system for ice building/maintenance and the feeling of the tight 13ft turning radius. The next training step, we have everyone operate the machine with the conditioner down using the machine to scrap and flood the ice. I also share with the crew my over thirty years’ experience in the industry and ice making tips that should help them with the operation of all the ice making equipment. That being said, I usually stay onsite for at 2 to 3 days to make sure everyone is trained and comfortable with the equipment.

Chestemere replaced their Olympia propane powered ice resurfacer with an Olympia Electric model. They were also considering the Zamboni Electric and the Engo Red Wolf. Although the Red Wolf was less expensive than the Olympia Electric, Staff were concerned that the Engo would need to be sent off site for repairs and maintenance whereas the Olympia could be serviced on site. During the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics in the Electric Olympia had multiple mechanical failures. It is unclear if the specifics failures are attributed to the Electric drive system or the ice making components. The article does provide some details that lead me to believe that it wasn’t a failure of the Electric drives system. ‘On Sunday, the first machine belched hot water and waste ice shavings onto the racing surface, delaying the women’s 3,000-metre event. Then on Monday, the backup unit also malfunctioned, gouging grooves in the ice that took more than an hour to fix.’ Halton Hills had a bad experience with their early market Electric Olympia ice resurfacer purchased in 2010 and opted to go back to propane powered. The report cited that the technology wasn’t there yet and they had some issues that took it out of service. Battery not able to keep up with a twin pad arena and the Electric Olympia was too large for the leisure ice. Switched from Propane to Electric Zamboni citing life cycle savings, reduced environmental impact and improved air quality inside arena.
In speaking to Joe Johnson Equipment (Engo supplier). If service can’t be done on site, they will send the Engo to repair location in Ottawa and provide us with a loaner unit. I have contacted Olympia myself, referencing the Vancouver Olympics experience to find out if the new Olympia M electric technology has been improved over the early market model. Olympia will not provide comment on this issue.
We are only operating a single pad arena. I have contacted Olympia myself, referencing the Halton Hills report to find out if the new Olympia M electric technology has been improved over the early market model. Olympia will not provide comment on this issue.
Switched from Propane to Electric Zamboni citing impact and improved air quality inside arena and not having to run exhaust system. “I don’t have to turn the fans on and don’t have to replace 100 percent of the air,” VanAntwerp said. Switched from Propane to Electric Zamboni turn reduced energy consumption and have a cleaner operation. Ottawa has 4 electric units and were planning to purchase 8 more due to the environmental benefit This was a controversial decision amongst staff and Councilors. and long term cost savings. They however opted not due to the initial costs of purchasing 8 electric units at one time.

FABN 2017 Annual Report 2b
Overviewb Frontenac Arch Biosphere Network (FABN) has experienced many forces inciting change in 2017. The Periodic Review was administered by International Coordinating Council (ICC) for the Man in the Biosphere (MAB) program. Recommendations were made by Canadian Commission for UNESCO (CCUNESCO) to address the findings of the Periodic Review. A new Strategic Plan was formed for the coming year; and a goal of strengthening our partnerships was set as a priority. This report is organized into activities from 2017, that FABN has been a participant or has completed. It is organized into the three functions of biosphere reserves, in order that we can look to where our efforts have been, and where we can increase our efforts in the future.
Visionb The Frontenac Arch Biosphere Network has contributed to strengthening sustainable community development, celebrating the interconnectedness of nature, livelihood, wellbeing and culture, for this and future generations.
Missionb To implement the UNESCO Man and the Biosphere programme to improve the relationships between people and their environments.
Highlightsb Ontario Trillium Fundbb During 2017, an Ontario Trillium Fund grant was obtained by former Executive Director, Ellie Bennett, in order to extend the Landon Bay Nature Camp. The grant was for the sum of $323,000, over a period of three years. This grant will enable the FABN to administer and expand the Landon Bay Nature Camp, which has seen tremendous success and support from the community.

BIOSPHERE RESERVE FUNCTION OF CONSERVATION: protecting cultural diversity and biodiversity, including genetic variation, species, ecosystems and landscapes and securing services provided by such diversity
Indigenous Engagementb 2017 was a year of reconnecting with our Indigenous partners. Frontenac Arch Biosphere Reserve (FABR) is located within the ancestral Haudenosaunee territory and the unceded Algonquin ancestral territory.
During the first part of the year, we participated in a national biosphere event Co-Building Sustainability and Reconciliation, held in the Manicouagan Biosphere Reserve and the ancestral territory of the Innu of Pessamit. The sessions, workshops, and exchanges, were meant to create a space where biosphere reserves could embrace reconciliation and foster meaningful relations with Indigenous partners, that can guide Canadian biosphere reserves from intention to action, as expressed in the Lima Action Plan. This past summer was the last walk of Josephine Mandamin, an Anishinaabe Nokomis, who partook in the 5,500+ km walk from Duluth, Minnesota to Matane, Quebec, to be the voice of the water, to emphasize our need to understand that it is alive and precious. FABN was honoured to provide local recommendations and a picnic supper to the Water Walkers as they passed through the biosphere in July.

FABN 2017 Annual Report 4b
By the end of the year, FABN participated in the Eastern Ontario Model Forest Annual Christmas Forest Seminar, where the theme was the Importance of Indigenous Engagement in Forestry. Though the seminar was forestry based, many of the concepts were not specific and could be used laterally within the biosphere model. The seminar was invaluable as it expressed the importance of involving Indigenous communities pointedly at the beginning of a project. Determining how Indigenous communities/people will use data, will foster involvement through that knowledge. Another important point, involvement of Indigenous people is specifically noted in Canadian legislation and the Constitution Act, and, as pertaining to biosphere reserves, in the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples referring to “free, prior and informed consent”.
Partner Workshops: UNESCO Week for Peace and Sustainable Development, “Achieving Education for Sustainable Development by Enhancing Partnerships between Indigenous Peoples and UNESCO Biosphere Reserves”
Shoreline Round Tableb In 2017, a Shorelines Round Table was created to address local development issues. The round table saw many organizations connect around the issues pertaining to shoreline conservation and restoration. Representatives from FABN, Cataraqui Region Conservation Authority (CRCA), Township Leeds and the Thousand Islands (TLTI), Charleston Lake Association (CLA), Thousand Island Watershed Land Trust (TIWLT), Algonquin to Adirondack Collaborative (A2A), Thousand Islands National Park (TINP), Leeds-Grenville Stewardship Council (LGSC), United Counties of Leeds and Grenville (UCLG), Watersheds Canada, Nature Conservancy of Canada (NCC), and Thousand Islands Area Residents Association (TIARA) were present. The group can provide science-based information, best practices, and review to inform decision-making and planning around shorelines. Currently, there are 11 sub-watersheds in the CRCA made up of lakes, streams, wetlands and coastal areas. A valuable result would be to have the information, knowledge, resources etc. assembled into one source document, and distributed to all the partners of this collaboration. The group plans to meet in 2018 to further create an amalgamation of the ideas and information garnered from the meeting.

BIOSPHERE RESERVE FUNCTION OF DEVELOPMENT: fostering economic and human development that is environmentally and socially sustainable and culturally appropriate.
All Trails Lead to Destinationsb This region is extremely well positioned to become one of the most significant trails destinations in Canada. Through a collaboration among the partner groups, a landscape level connection of trails is created. Trails are an important and key feature that highlights the unique region of the FABR. It is imperative that they are coordinated, well developed and a properly maintained system. The trails strategy allows the communities within the biosphere to be fully engaged with their surrounding trail system. The Biosphere Trails Council is this region’s Regional Member of the Ontario Trails Council. In collaboration with 40 regional trails owners, government ministries and agencies, trails interest groups and various stakeholders, the Biosphere Trails Council has completed a broad trails strategy. The strategy aims to address concerns, needs and issues that would help propel this region to become that trails destination.

BIOSPHERE RESERVE FUNCTION OF LOGISTICS SUPPORT: facilitating demonstration projects, environmental education and sustainable development education and training, research, and monitoring. While education, research, monitoring and capacity enhancement are seen as components of the logistic or knowledge-generation function of biosphere reserves, they are also integral to the conservation and development functions.
Queen’s Universityb Every year since 2009, Queen’s University School of Environmental Studies has partnered with FABN, to produce research and analysis in support of ongoing activities within the biosphere. These reports encompass themes of: biodiversity, species at risk, climate change, carbon accounting, trails, food, governance, community health and more. The reports are generated by students enrolled in ENSC 430 (Honours Projects in Sustainability), which was held during two semesters this past year (2017-18). The course is a capstone course, applying and integrating learned material in the fourth year. It is described as the “Interdisciplinary study of the scientific, socio-political, and economic aspects of selected local, national, or global issues related to environmental sustainability.”, and is administered by Dr. Ryan Danby and Dr. Graham Whitelaw. http://www.queensu.ca/ensc/ensc-430 As a partner, FABN provides a presentation on the biosphere to new students (September 2017). Following this, a short list of topics the biosphere views as a priority for the coming year, is provided to the students, and a field trip through the Frontenac Arch Biosphere Reserve is organized. In 2017, topics of interest to FABN were shortlisted to the following: Climate Change Trend Data (LAP B7, SDG 13), Ecosystem Services (LAPB7, SDG 15), Education Strategy 8-80 (LAP B7, SDG 4), Shoreline Development (LAP B7, SDG 12), Trails Manual (LAP B7, SDG 12). All of the topics have been parallelled to the Lima Action Plan (LAP) and the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDG), as outlined in our mandate. Students presented the following research initiatives in March 2018: Ecosystem Services in the FAB, Education Strategy for the FAB, Climate Change Trends in the FAB, Waterfront Stewardship in the FAB and Haliburton, Trail Unification in the FAB, and Comparative Analysis of Shoreline Development in the FAB. The reports can be used to direct future project development and initiatives for FABN, as well as, to aid in policy decisions by local governments.

Amazing Placesb The Amazing Places (AP) project completed it’s Ontario Trillium Foundation funding in April. The accomplishments of Amazing Places in 2017 include expansion of AP’s to 20 sites within the biosphere, development and placement of supporting signage (Brockville Train Tunnel), development and delivery of communication products (resources include branded permanent signage, movable signage, rack cards and a staff training program called “Ask Me About Amazing Places”). Throughout the spring, summer and fall, the Rideau Trails Association organized a series of hikes to designated Amazing Places trails and historic sites. We integrated the program with the Biosphere Network’s regional trails initiative by highlighting Amazing Places that can be reached by hiking, biking or paddling. In the fall, funding continued with a provincial Tourism Development Grant as the project entered the marketing phase. We worked with tourism consultant Trish Manning of Manning Consulting Llc. to design a workshop to present in early 2018 to give local business training on how to market and package Amazing Places experiences.

“Leeds-Grenville is blessed with an abundance of beautiful natural areas to explore and FABN’s Amazing Places program is a great way to showcase them,” said Leeds-Grenville MPP Steve Clark. “I’m so pleased this funding through the Ontario Tourism Development Fund will allow the Biosphere to expand the program and encourage even more people to visit our region.”
Partner Workshops: TLTI Tourism Summit. FABN participated on a panel discussion and talked about Amazing Places and integrating it into tourism marketing. Ellie Bennett and Liz Harder hosted a booth with information on AP and FABN.
FAB Experiencesb The FAB Experiences (FAB Exp) was a guide and website used to connect visitors and locals to authentic experiences in this region. By partnering with municipalities, conservation groups, artists, food producers, parks, and historical sites, all located within a five hour drive from three major cities, FAB Exp supported other tourism marketing efforts. It consisted of several parts; an annual Guide with maps, a website, social media, weekly email broadcasts, events connections, and news articles. The purpose of the guide was to bring connectivity of experiences by any means of travel road, cycling, hiking, paddling, and/or snowshoeing - connecting users with local businesses, accommodations, heritage, natural landscapes, as well as, stories, events, resources and services. For the past two years, FABN has printed and distributed 30,000 copies with great success.

FABN 2017 Annual Report 10b
“With so many things to see and places to visit, it’s always good to know where to turn when you are planning out your trip or need a little help while you are on your way. FAB Experiences Guide Community Services is a great place to start.”
Fulford Academy Field Tripb On 12th October 2017, FABN organized a field trip pilot project with Fulford Academy to deliver high-quality educational programming to educate children about the Biosphere region and issues related to the Man and the Biosphere program. The aim is to build partnerships with schools in the Frontenac Arch Biosphere region and to build equipment and resources for use by multiple schools. Feedback from the Grade 9 field trip: “The Frontenac Arch Biosphere team was very helpful in planning our day and meeting our expectations.” “I enjoyed having the handouts and knowing what I had to explain to the students before we went there.” “Our goals for this trip included exposing our students to different types of rocks and layers. We also wanted our students to observe evidence of glaciation, as well as to investigate the
Page 115 of 121
FABN 2017 Annual Report 11b relationships between biotic and abiotic factors in different ecosystems. All of our expectations were met!” “I thought the whole experience was well organized and very engaging for our students. I would be interested to do this same trip again, perhaps earlier in the school year so that abiotic comparisons between the forest ecosystems may be more revealing.” “The entire day was a fantastic experience for both the students and the staff. The activities were cleverly spaced out to maximize student engagement and there were ample opportunities for both scientific exploration and for observation of the geology of the area.”
Thousand Islands Community Bioblitzb The Canada 150 Thousand Islands Community Bioblitz was held at the Landon Bay Centre, Thousands Islands National Park, on June 16/17, 2017. The event was organized as a partnership between the FABN, the Frontenac Arch Biosphere Foundation (FABF), the
Page 116 of 121
FABN 2017 Annual Report 12b Kingston Field Naturalists (KFN), Parks Canada (PC), and the Canadian Wildlife Federation (CWF). The Kingston Field Naturalists run an annual Bioblitz event, which usually attracts around 60 people. This year, the Bioblitz became a part of the Bioblitz Canada 150 program, and the Frontenac Arch Biosphere Network received funding through the Canadian Wildlife Federation to facilitate the event. The event this year ran for 24 hours and attracted 107 participants, connecting people in the region with nature and taxa experts. The total number of species inventoried on iNaturalist was 810. The list of inventoried species documented during the Bioblitz is available in iNaturalist here: https://www.inaturalist.org/projects/thousand-islands-bioblitz-bioblitz-des-mille-iles, project ID: 12743. Bird sightings were also recorded in eBird.
Testimonials: “I liked the bird walk, especially the big (peregrine) falcons. The caterpillars were good, too." Kiki Olivier Tailfeathers, Age 6, Gananoque, ON “The Bio blitz was a very educational and eventful event. I learned a lot about insects, birds and how to catch bugs. Also I loved that their was so much selection of activities to do. It was a fabulous event and I can’t wait for more of them to come.” William Kizell, Age 13, Brockville, ON “The Bio blitz was very fun when we caught dragon flys and fish, it was so much fun! I also thought it was a very fun when we learned about birds (I loved that part). I am very happy I went!” Kathryn Kizell, Age 11, Brockville, ON

Other Noteworthy Eventsb Communications with Canadian Governmentbb
In 2017, the FABN was honoured to meet with Dr. Dianne Saxe, the Environmental Commissioner of Ontario. Dr. Saxe is described as “a tough but fair watchdog over Ontario’s environmental, energy and climate performance, and guardian of the Environmental Bill of Rights, 1993 (EBR).” https://eco.on.ca/staff/dr-dianne-saxe/. Dr. Saxe relayed that Ontario needs more success stories and would like FABN to be able to contribute in this regard. As a result of this meeting, Steve Clark, our MPP, wrote a letter of support to the Ministries of Tourism, Culture and Sport, and Transportation to provide signage for the FABR.
Of note in 2017, was the first Canadian Biosphere Reserves Association (CBRA) “Day on the Hill”. The non-partisan event was to raise awareness of the impact that Canada’s 18 biosphere reserves have on the landscape. CBRA Executives met with Minister McKenna to discuss how CBRA can help Canada meet its 2020 Biodiversity Goals and Targets.
Tourism Officeb Two summer students were hired to run the information office and worked on projects related to events coordination, Bioblitz, trails project, and a presentation at Charleston Lake Association camp. The office was open from May 24 to August 25, 2017 from 9am-5pm. The total number of visitors was 2,323, with July being the busiest month and Saturdays being the busiest day. b
