Dear Head of Council: To further support municipalities in delivering much-needed housing and other provincial priorities, I am pleased to inform you that our government intends to expand strong mayor powers to your municipality. Following previous expansions, we have seen strong mayors put these transformative powers into action to support growth, from proposing budgets to setting up organizational structures to proposing by-laws to help advance provincial priorities such as building more homes and constructing and maintaining infrastructure to support housing. Our government’s expectation is that you will make use of these powers in a similar way, supporting provincial priorities that will help our province and our communities grow. These priorities include supporting the construction of new homes, economic development and building infrastructure that supports community growth, including housing-enabling infrastructure like water and wastewater infrastructure, as well as roads, highways, transit and more. Heads of council in strong mayor municipalities can: • Choose to appoint the municipality’s chief administrative officer. • Hire certain municipal department heads, and establish and re-organize departments. • Create committees of council, assign their functions and appoint the Chairs and Vice-Chairs of committees of council. • Propose the municipal budget, which would be subject to council amendments and a separate mayoral veto and council override process. • Veto certain by-laws if they are of the opinion that all or part of the by-law could potentially interfere with a provincial priority, such as housing, transit and infrastructure. • Bring forward matters for council consideration if they are of the opinion that considering the matter could potentially advance a provincial priority. • Propose certain municipal by-laws if they are of the opinion that the proposed by-law could potentially advance a provincial priority. Council can pass these by-laws if more than one-third of council members vote in favour. …/2

Summary and Themes from Engagement

Page 22 of 199

• As per Appendix ‘D’: Feedback from Stakeholders • Conflicting ideas for use of these sites o sites should remain a hidden secret and be designed for use by only the local residents and neighbours o sites should be more of a destination location that would be part of a Tourism route with options for programming o Township shouldn’t invest any effort or funds into these sites • Maintain privacy between sites and Neighbours • More naturalization using native plant species and maintain as many mature trees as possible • Re-using materials for items such as structures, benches, posts • Ensure benches and garbage cans are on site • Use of more artifacts if possible (that can be protected) • Engage with the Conservation Authority on site design and features • Some residents feel that parking should be removed from sites and located elsewhere • Consider water access and portage routes at sites

Summary This report provides Council information on the Bellrock and Petworth Mills Concept Plans, Structural Reports and Class D Project Estimates. Recommendation This report is for information only. Background For many years, the Bellrock and Petworth Mills supplied products far and wide and played an important role in the History of this region. Being part of the fabric of this community, there are many residents that have a personal connection to these sites. Unfortunately, due to changes in ownership and a lack of upkeep over the years, these Mills fell into a state of disrepair. When the Township assumed ownership of these two mills (Petworth 2017 and Bellrock 2020), they were well beyond the ability to restore, and only minimal preservation could be considered. It is important to note that preservation is the processes of protecting, maintaining, and/or stabilizing the existing structural materials or individual components in order to protect its heritage value. Restoration is the process of accurately revealing, recovering or representing the state of the structure or individual components as it appeared at a particular period in its history, while protecting its heritage value. Background information can be found in reports from the February 6th, 2023 and December 5th, 2023 Council meetings.

Staff presented action plans and next steps to the South Frontenac Museum Committees as part of their Annual General Meeting Staff also received and reviewed information provided by the South Frontenac Museum and Historical Society. In March 2025 a Bellrock and Petworth Mills Projects Concept Stakeholder Meeting was held as an opportunity for the Public and Stakeholders to see the concepts in person, ask questions and provide any additional thoughts on the future of the site(s). It was also an opportunity to learn about other potential opportunities that are being considered to highlight the History and stories of the Mills beyond the sites themselves. There were 17 people in attendance, 5 comment cards returned, and 4 email response with comments following meeting. A summary of questionnaire responses and comments from Stakeholder meeting are included in Appendix D- Feedback from Stakeholders Concept Plan Development The concepts have been informed by the 66 questionnaires responses, additional submissions from individuals along with a review of information provided by the Museum and Historical Society. The consultants and Staff have worked to develop and present concepts for the Mills sites that are representative of the various perspectives shared. In saying this, it is clear by the numerous responses we received, that there are conflicting ideas for use of these sites. There were many people that feel that these sites should remain a hidden secret and be designed for use by only the local residents and neighbours. There were equally as many respondents that feel these sites should be more of a destination location that would be part of a Tourism route with options for programming. There are also individuals that feel that the Township shouldn’t invest any effort or funds into these sites. Therefore, just like any other Township recreation and leisure amenity, the concepts have been designed to benefit the residents of South Frontenac along with the broader regional community. This is similar to how the Mills operated for many years, by supporting both local and regional. Communication and Engagement Activities The Concept plan process and opportunities for involvement were communicated through many mediums. • • • •

Bellrock Mill Structural Inspection and Recommendations

To whom it may concern: Greer Galloway, via the undersigned, attended the site of the Bellrock Mill in South Frontenac Township on Friday, February 7th, 2025, to perform a structural inspection of the existing mill structure. The purpose of this inspection was to review the current condition of the remaining structural elements of the historic mill structure and to provide comments and recommendations for the adaptive re-use of these elements in creating a new park for the South Frontenac Township. Figure 1 below shows the condition of the site at the time of inspection.

Existing Site Conditions The timber framed roof and walls of the Bellrock Mill are no longer standing. The remaining structure is primarily concrete, stone and masonry elements including the existing sluice walls, mill floor slabs, concrete head wall, wing walls and a retaining wall at the East side of the site. The condition of the existing concrete and masonry elements throughout the site varies from fair to poor, with several failed elements observed around the sluiceway. At the time of our inspection there was a thick layer of snow on top of the site which limited visual observations of some elements, particularly the extent and condition of the existing concrete slab on-grade at each side of the sluiceway. The existing sluiceway structure starts at the North end of the site, where two concrete wing walls extend South from the roadway at the damn to the headwall which separates the upper and lower portions of the sluiceway. There is an opening at the base of the headwall in the center to allow water through into the lower sluiceway, as well as a second opening in the lower north side of the headwall which was actively flowing at the time of inspection. The concrete wing walls and headwall appear to be in generally fair condition with no immediate structural concerns. Continuing south from the headwall, the lower sluice walls appear to be a mix of stone masonry and parged concrete walls on each face of the channel. The condition of these walls varies from fair to poor to failed. Figure 2 shows a stretch of wall along the east side of the sluiceway, changing from parged concrete to stacked stone/masonry and back to concrete again.

Figure 2: East sluiceway wall showing sections of CIP, Parged Concrete and Stone Masonry There appears to be a concrete slab on either side of the sluiceway. The extents of the slab could not be fully confirmed due to the presence of snow and vegetation cover below at the time of inspection. It is presumed that the slabs are the floor of the former mill and likely end at the extents of the original building footprint. The exposed portions of slab on the West side of the channel appeared to be in fair to poor condition, with obvious signs of wear, cracking and delamination of concrete. The slab on the East side of the channel was in similar condition with the notable failure of the slab directly South of the East wing wall. This area is highlighted on Figure 3 below. This area poses a significant structural concern as the failure of the slab and adjacent wall below means that there is possible additional undermining of the slab in this area. Additional

Page 2 of 4

review may be required to determine the extent of the possible undermining prior to any construction activities in this area.

Figure 3: Failed East sluiceway wall section with undermined wall above. The last significant structural feature reviewed was the retaining wall along the East perimeter of the site. The retaining wall is in fair to poor condition. The wall is a mix of cast-in-place concrete, stone masonry and a section of apparent loose stacked stone just south of the proposed Shade structure (see Figure 4, below) There is a significant crack in the wall at the North side of the proposed shade structure, extending the entire height of the wall. The wall appeared to be otherwise secure at this location, however the presence of the crack, coupled with earth pressure behind the wall, is of concern and should be addressed prior to any public access.

Conceptual Design – Structural Comments Greer Galloway has reviewed the conceptual design for the proposed park, provided by the landscape architect. The existing sluiceway is a main feature of the park, with proposed railings along the edge of the watercourse, and a proposed bridge crossing the over the sluice from (North to South). The current state of the concrete is not suitable for supporting loading from new railings or for the new bridge. It is recommended that prior to installing new railings along the sluiceway, comprehensive concrete repair be completed along the sluiceway walls. It is anticipated that the wall repair would require cast-in-place concrete refacing with installation of welded wire mesh or drilled rebar dowels to repair and seal the existing wall, as well as to provide a sound base for anchoring the railings. For the bridge, it is recommended that the structure bear on new foundation elements (abutments or piles) located beyond the edge of the sluiceway. This will protect the sluiceway walls from bridge loading. A geotechnical investigation will be required to confirm the bearing capacity and recommend a foundation type. The bridge should be positioned such that the abutment sits between 500mm and 1000mm beyond the edge of the sluiceway. For the shade structure, we recommend either a pre-engineered or conventionally timber or steel framed structure. The columns for the shade structure should be supported on independent foundation such as pad & pier footings or sonotubes, pending the results of the geotechnical investigation. We do not recommend supporting any portion of the shade structure on the existing retaining wall or slab. The concrete portions of the wall along the East side of the site will require at a minimum crack injection and isolated concrete repairs. Due to the proposed use of the site as a public park, it is recommended that an analysis be completed to confirm the East perimeter wall’s ability to act as a retaining wall for the adjacent built-up earth. While it may have performed for many years in this capacity, the removal of the bracing effect of the previous mill structure is likely to have had an impact on the capacity of the wall. Based on the results of the analysis, rehabilitation of the wall shall take place. At minimum, crack injection and local concrete repairs will be required at the crack in the North face at the proposed shade structure location, prior to erection of the shade structure. The stacked stone portion of the wall should be removed and replaced with either cast-in-place concrete or reconstructed as stone masonry. The failed section of slab on the east side of the sluiceway, adjacent to the East wing wall, must also be repaired. It is anticipated that additional site investigations will be required to confirm the extent of undermining of the slab in this area, prior to completing rehabilitation design. At a minimum, a new sluiceway wall should be installed, with the undermined/missing material infilled with new. We trust this information is sufficient to your needs at this time. If you have any questions regarding the above, please do not hesitate to call. Yours truly, Greer Galloway, a division of Jp2g Consultants Inc.

Petworth Mill Structural Inspection and Recommendations

To whom it may concern: Greer Galloway, via the undersigned, attended the site of the Petworth Mill in South Frontenac Township on Friday, February 7th, 2025 to perform a structural inspection of the existing mill structure. The purpose of this inspection was to review the current condition of the remaining structural elements of the historic mill structure and to provide comments and recommendations for the adaptive re-use of these elements in creating a new park for the South Frontenac Township. A previous site visit was completed on January 20, 2025 to complete a topographic survey of the site. Figure 1 below shows the condition of the site at the time of the survey.

Page 45 of 199

Existing Site Conditions The only remaining structure at the Petworth Mill is the stone masonry exterior walls of the mill. The structure consists of two complete walls (South and West) and two partial walls (North and West) and is located in the Southeast corner of the site, north-west of the Petworth Road bridge. The South and West walls are roughly two stories tall. There is a ledge where the wall thickness decreases from roughly 900mm thick to 600mm thick. It is theorized that this ledge would have supported the wooden floor of the original mill building. The exterior grades slope dramatically from the West side, where the grade is level with the former upper floor, to the East side of the structure where the grade is level with the bottom of the structure, in the floodplane of the adjacent Nappanee River. At the time of our inspection, the entire bottom of the structure was flooded and frozen over with a thick layer of ice (see Figure 2 below)

Figure 2: Flooded and frozen inside of the mill, looking South – February 7, 2025

Page 2 of 4

Page 46 of 199

The existing walls are stone masonry, approximately 3ft thick at the base, with a ledge partway up where the wall steps back to be 2ft thick. The wall condition varies from fair to poor throughout the remaining structure. The South and West wall are in largely fair condition, with a minor amount of stone missing and aged /missing mortar typical of a stone structure of this age that has not been maintained or rehabilitated. The North and East walls are much shorter, with the majority of these structures missing due to previous failure. The walls begin in fair, stable condition at the corners with the South/West walls respectively but are in poor condition at the end of the walls. The exposed east end of the north wall is in very poor condition as seen in Figure 3 below.

Figure 3: East face of North wall with significant amounts of missing stones, mortar failure.

Page 47 of 199

Conceptual Design – Structural Comments Greer Galloway has reviewed the conceptual design for the proposed park, provided by the landscape architect. The major structural features is a cantilevered deck / viewing platform overhanging the west wall of the mill structure. The viewing platform is shown as a cantilever extending to the East beyond the existing mill wall. In order to achieve a cantilevered deck structure such as this, it is recommended that the deck be supported on cantilevered steel girders fixed to a cast-in-place concrete foundation. The foundation will need to be sufficiently heavy or designed with a “toe” at the base leading away from the existing wall. The reason for this is to help resist the load of the cantilevered deck and prevent overturning, as well as to help distribute the loads down and away from the existing Mill wall. The existing wall itself is in fair condition given its age. There are cracks and broken/missing mortar throughout, as well as isolated missing blocks on the South face. It is recommended that prior to public access efforts be made to repoint the wall where needed to prevent further deterioration of mortar joints and continued failure/material loss from the wall. Additionally, it is recommended that the end of the partial North and East walls be addressed. This can be done in one of two ways. The first option is to repair the wall sections with new stone and mortar to make a solid, clean surface. The second option would be to cut back the walls to a point where they are solid. This will help prevent further deterioration of the partial walls and protect the public from the possibility of loose or falling material, as well as prevent accumulation of snow, ice or rain on the uneven wall sections leading to possible further damage. The same approach should also be taken at the top of the West wall to ensure no loose material remains that could pose a risk to users below the wall. We trust this information is sufficient to your needs at this time. If you have any questions regarding the above, please do not hesitate to call.

Conﬁrmation that any ground cover or plantings would be non-invasive There were some concerns about whether there should be parking at the sites (as proposed) from those that feel that these Mills sites are only going to serve the immediate neighbours. Speciﬁcally, at the Bellrock Mill site. o Remove parking from site and have parking on street instead o Have parking in another area of Bellrock Move the entrance from Mill Street to Main Street as the resident felt the grade into Mill Street was steep Sentiment shared by a few that there should be more greenspace, Eliminate parking and concrete areas. Concerns about maintaining privacy between Bellrock and Neighbours. More Tree plantings Question about the type of trees being planted Maintenance of forested area to remove dead trees, but leave lilacs Some comments about potential water access points and portage route at Bellrock More artifacts to be located closer to the parking area and not as far into the Mill Individual interested in any potential artifacts that may be available for display in a building in Yarker along the Napanee River More use of wood and natural landscaping Natural playground, sandbox or anything for kids Support for White Pine plantings Concerns of potential high water that could impact sites Signage about the Reynolds Family and ownership for over 50years.

The timeline of the project, from a Township ownership and SFMS project perspective, is as follows: • • • •

• • •

•

2017 (approx.) - South Frontenac purchased the Petworth Mill property. 2020 - South Frontenac purchased the Bellrock Mill property. 2021 – An engineering ﬁrm was contracted through members of the ‘Save the Bellrock Mill Committee’ complete a study on the mills. 2022 – The Recreation, Parks, and Leisure Master Plan that was approved and adopted by Council recommended work at the mill properties creating safe, informative and accessible parkettes. 2022 – The contract with the engineering ﬁrm was terminated by the Township due to not receiving any ﬁnal reports and lack of communication. Fall of 2022 – South Frontenac Township contracted another ﬁrm, WSP to complete a condition and feasibility assessment of the sites. December 2022 and February 2023-WSP Feasibility report and Staff report to Council o WSP determined that the sites where unsafe and to attempt restoring them is not feasible as they would be required to be brought up to today’s standards, including building and ﬁre codes and accessibility requirements. o The assessment determined that based on industry standards for historic restoration, the Bellrock Mill costs would be in the range of $1.2 to $2.2 Million to get to some level of Restoration. o As for Preservation of the Bellrock Mill: Preserving it would not allow for any Public access or to see the artifacts inside o Petworth Mill costs were estimated at just under 1 to 1.5 million for preservation in the state it was in. o These options and costs were presented to Council and the direction was to not move forward with restoration and focus on preservation where feasible, carefully removing artifacts and materials, along with obtaining concept designs. July of 2023 – South Frontenac Township with the support of the South Frontenac Museum Society hosted a meeting at the Bellrock Hall to discuss the next steps of the projects and discuss the idea of potential parkettes.

October of 2023- The following work was completed on site

Petworth Mill • •

•

Work began on site the week of October 10th, 2023. Minor tree pruning and removal was required to access the wall. The contractor only removed what was required to complete the work and the rest of the trees were left and to be assessed as part of the future design plans. The south wall was dismantled by hand to a high level with the bottom of the window openings and the west wall was leveled off to a consistent height. Removals were completed to only what is required for the walls to be safe and structurally sound. All materials taken off site and stored at a secured location to be used for future restoration projects.

Bellrock Mill • • •

• • • •

All building and conservation permits are approved and in place for the project. Work commenced October 2023 Minor tree removal was required to access the site with heavy equipment. The contractor only removed trees that impede on project space and was advised to save as many trees as possible. The structure was dismantled by demolition excavators with grabbles and removed in sections trying to preserve as much material as possible. All building materials were hauled off site to a secured location where it was inventoried and stored for future use. The demolition plan was designed to salvage as much of the machinery and equipment inside the structure as possible. The existing sluice remained in place and was fenced off for safety.

December of 2024- South Frontenac Township issued a Request for Quotation •

To obtain the services of an experienced Landscape Architectural Design Firm for the provision of preparing mill concept plans for the two sites.

January of 2025- South Frontenac Township awarded project to Lashley and Associates Corporation • • •

Zoning By-law Amendment Application PL-ZBA-2025-0009, Stonehenge Industries Inc. (Freeman), 4996 Battersea Road, Storrington District

Report Number:

2025-052

Summary This report provides Council with information about Zoning By-law Amendment Application PL-ZBA-2025-0009 for 4996 Battersea Road. If approved, the zone on a portion of the property subject to a consent application would change from Urban Industrial – Special Provision (UI-8) to Urban Residential – First Density (UR1). Council will review the proposal and invite public input at the statutory public meeting. Staff are recommending that Council pass a by-law during the Council meeting in which the public meeting is held, per Procedural By-law as Amended by By-law 2023-44. This planning matter is technical in nature because it fulfills a condition of consent approval. Recommendation That the Zoning By-law Amendment Application (File Number PL-ZBA-2025-0009) submitted by Stonehenge Industries Inc. (Freeman), regarding 4996 Battersea Road, Storrington District, be approved; That By-law 2025-28, attached to Report Number 2025-052, as Exhibit A, being a By-law to amend the zoning on lands known as 4996 Battersea Road, Part of Lots 7 and 8, Concession 9, District of Storrington, Township of South Frontenac be given first and second reading; and That By-law 2025-28 be presented to Council for third reading. Background The subject application is related to consent application PL-BDJ-2025-0008 for a one-acre lot addition from 4996 Battersea Road to 4958 Battersea Road. The consent application was approved subject to conditions by the Director of Development Services on March 20, 2025. The purpose of the rezoning application is to fulfill a condition that requires the severed parcel to be rezoned from Urban Industrial – Special Provision (UI-8) to Urban Residential – www.southfrontenac.net South Frontenac is a welcoming and thriving rural community.

Township of South Frontenac Staff Report Number: 2025-052

Page 108 of 199

First Density (UR1). This change is required so that the enlarged property at #4958 is entirely within the residential zone. Under the Planning Act, a public meeting is required to be held to receive comments from the public on the proposed rezoning. The subject property is located on Battersea Road in the Battersea Settlement Area. A watercourse flows through the southeast corner of the property. This watercourse takes water from Cedar Lake to the Milburn Creek Wetland and Loughborough Lake. The east side of the property contains two manufacturing buildings, an industrial freezer, an accessory dwelling unit, and several former agricultural buildings. The Owner produces dog food on the property. Application and Supporting Documents

This application did not require department and external agency reviews. Public Comments

No comments were received at the time this report was written. Planning Analysis The Director of Development Services had consideration for the applicable policies of the Provincial Planning Statement 2024, County of Frontenac Official Plan, and Township of South Frontenac Official Plan, as well as the provisions of Zoning By-law No. 2003-75, in the decision to grant provisional approval to the consent application. The Provincial Planning Statement 2024 (PPS) states that healthy, integrated and viable rural areas should be supported by accommodating an appropriate range and mix of housing in rural settlement areas, and promoting diversification of the economic base and employment opportunities through goods and services, including value-added products. The County of Frontenac Official Plan, consistent with the PPS, promotes mixed use development in settlement areas, as well as ways to enhance the local employment based in settlement areas and along major transportation routes. The Township of South Frontenac Official Plan also promotes residential development as well as opportunities for a varied and balanced industrial/commercial base in the settlement areas. The area of 4958 Battersea Road will increase from one acre to two acres as a result of the lot addition. This will make the property compliant with the minimum lot area requirements of the Official Plan and the Zoning By-law. This property is zoned UR1, but the lot addition is zoned UI-8. The zone on the lot addition needs to be changed from UI-8 to UR1 to match that of the benefitting lands and to only permit residential uses. www.southfrontenac.net South Frontenac is a welcoming and thriving rural community.

Township of South Frontenac Staff Report Number: 2025-052

Page 109 of 199

The retained lands will continue to be used for the existing industrial business, compliant with the Urban Industrial and UI-8 zones. The size reduction does not impact the operation and viability of the business. The existing uses of the retained lands and the benefitting lands have co-existed for decades. Land use compatibility will be reviewed through site plan control when/if a major business expansion is proposed in the future. Conclusion It is the opinion of staff that the proposed zoning by-law amendment is consistent and conforms to the Provincial Planning Statement 2024, the County of Frontenac Official Plan, and the Township of South Frontenac Official Plan. It also represents good planning for the subject lands. Staff are recommending that Council pass a by-law during the Council meeting in which the public meeting is held, per Procedural By-law as Amended by By-law 2023-44, as the planning matter is technical in nature. Specifically, the Director of Development Services had consideration for all applicable policy in the decision to grant provisional approval to the consent application, and the proposed by-law will fulfill one of the conditions.

Zoning By-law Amendment Application PL-ZBA-2025-0027, Asselstine, Part of Lot 6, Concession 7, Hartington, Portland District

Report Number:

2025-053

Summary This report provides Council with information about Zoning By-law Amendment Application PL-ZBA-2025-0027 for a property with frontage on Holleford Road and Road 38 in Hartington. If approved, a holding symbol will be placed on the Rural zone on this property. The holding symbol will require a hydrogeological assessment and terrain analysis demonstrating there will be an adequate water supply for any proposed development. Council will review the proposal and invite public input at the statutory public meeting. Staff are recommending that Council pass a by-law during the Council meeting in which the public meeting is held, per Procedural By-law as Amended by By-law 2023-44. This planning matter is technical in nature because it fulfills a condition of consent approval. Recommendation That the Zoning By-law Amendment Application (File Number PL-ZBA-2025-0027) submitted by Asselstine, regarding Part of Lot 6, Concession 7, Hartington, Portland District, be approved; That By-law 2025-29, attached to Report Number 2025-053, As Exhibit A, being a By-law to amend the zoning on lands known as Part of Lot 6, Concession 7, District of Portland, Township of South Frontenac be given first and second reading; and That By-law 2025-29 be presented to Council for third reading. Background On August 8, 2024, the Committee of Adjustment approved consent application PL-BDJ2024-0040 for a new lot. The purpose of the application was to separate the property into two with the new lot line corresponding to the Hartington Settlement Area boundary. The severed parcel is within the settlement area. It will be approximately 6.8ha in area with 85m frontage on Holleford Road. The retained parcel is outside the settlement area, in the Agricultural designation. It will be approximately 9.5ha in area with 250m frontage on Road www.southfrontenac.net South Frontenac is a welcoming and thriving rural community.

Township of South Frontenac Staff Report Number: 2025-053

Page 114 of 199

The retained lands contain a solar panel which the owner wishes to have on a separate parcel. The agricultural use of the lands is proposed to continue. One of the conditions was to place a Holding Symbol on the Rural zone on the severed parcel, instead of the standard condition requiring a well driller’s report. The Holding Symbol would not be removed until it is demonstrated to the satisfaction of the Township that there will be an adequate water supply for any future development. The condition acknowledges there is no development proposed at this time, and the resident concerns about potential groundwater impact from an unknown future use. Under the Planning Act, a public meeting is required to be held to receive comments from the public on the proposed rezoning. Application and Supporting Documents

This application did not require department and external agency reviews. Public Comments

No comments were received at the time this report was written. Through the consent application process, the Committee of Adjustment heard resident concerns about:

the availability of water in the area and concerns about the impact additional development would have on the availability of water,
site contamination from the property at the corner of Road 38 and Holleford Road which was a former gas station, and
the unknown future use of the severed parcel. Planning Analysis The Committee of Adjustment had consideration for the applicable policies of the Provincial Planning Statement 2024, County of Frontenac Official Plan, and Township of South Frontenac Official Plan, as well as the provisions of Zoning By-law No. 2003-75, in the decision to grant provisional approval to the consent application. The Provincial Planning Statement 2024 (PPS) states that healthy, integrated and viable rural areas should be supported by accommodating an appropriate range and mix of housing in rural settlement areas, and promoting diversification of the economic base and employment opportunities through goods and services, including value-added products. The County of Frontenac Official Plan, consistent with the PPS, promotes mixed use development in settlement areas, as well as ways to enhance the local employment based www.southfrontenac.net South Frontenac is a welcoming and thriving rural community.

Page 115 of 199

in settlement areas and along major transportation routes. The Township of South Frontenac Official Plan also promotes residential development as well as opportunities for a varied and balanced industrial/commercial base in the settlement areas. These policy documents require development to have appropriate water and sewage services, and to protect groundwater resources. The severed parcel is in a settlement area. However, it is zoned Rural (RU). The RU zone allows a variety of agricultural uses and agricultural-related uses. It also allows a single detached dwelling. The proposed holding symbol will restrict development of any of the permitted uses until such time as it is demonstrated that there will be an adequate water supply for the proposed use. The Owner indicated that there is no development proposed at this time. Staff note that an application for zoning by-law amendment would be required in order to permit a different use on the parcel, or to permit multi-lot or multi-unit residential development. Such an application would require the submission of technical studies, including a hydrogeological assessment and terrain analysis, so that the proposal could be appropriately assessed within the applicable policy framework. It would also be subject to a public consultation process. Conclusion It is the opinion of staff that the proposed zoning by-law amendment is consistent and conforms to the Provincial Planning Statement 2024, the County of Frontenac Official Plan, and the Township of South Frontenac Official Plan. It also represents good planning for the subject lands. Staff are recommending that Council pass a by-law during the Council meeting in which the public meeting is held, per Procedural By-law as Amended by By-law 2023-44, as the planning matter is technical in nature. Specifically, the Committee of Adjustment had consideration for all applicable policy in the decision to grant provisional approval to the consent application, and the proposed by-law will fulfill one of the conditions.

Public Meeting for Zoning By-law Amendment Application PL-ZBA-20250031, Willes (The Boulevard Group), 102904001011600, Sydenham Road

Report Number:

2025-054

Summary This report provides Council with information about Zoning By-law Amendment Application PL-ZBA-2025-0031 for a property south of 2527 Rutledge Road on Sydenham Road. If approved, the Rural zone on a portion of the subject lands would be changed to a Rural Industrial special exception zone. The RI-XX zone would permit a variety of industrial uses and specify performance standards. Consistent with Council’s Procedural By-law, Council will receive comments from the public on the application through the public meeting. Staff will bring a more detailed report considering applicable policy and public comments, as well as providing a recommendation to Council on this application at a future meeting. Recommendation This report is for information only. Background The subject property is 26.3ha (65 acres) with approximately 25m frontage on Rutledge Road and 655m frontage on Sydenham Road. The property consists of a mix of forest and open field. The Owners intend to apply to sever a 1.6ha (4 acre) lot on Sydenham Road. They propose to construct a 21,474sq.ft. (1,995sq.m.) single storey building for warehousing and distribution of a shipping pallet safety system product, potentially adding a manufacturing component in the future. A consent application would be submitted if Council approves a zoning by-law amendment that would permit the proposed use. The draft by-law that was submitted with the application would change the zone in the area of the proposed lot from RU to RI-XX. The proposed RI-XX zone would include an extensive list of permitted uses. It would also include performance standards that are www.southfrontenac.net South Frontenac is a welcoming and thriving rural community.

based on the proposed warehousing and distribution building including a minimum of 8 parking spaces, a minimum of 1 loading space, and a minimum 4.0m front yard. Under the Planning Act, a public meeting is required to be held to receive comments from the public on the proposed rezoning. Application and Supporting Documents

The application and supporting documents can be accessed through the Township’s CivicWeb Document Center, https://southfrontenac.civicweb.net/filepro/documents/114028/ Planning Justification Report A Planning Justification Report (The Boulevard Group, March 2025) was submitted in support of the application. The report assessed the appropriateness of the proposed zoning by-law amendment in the context of the surrounding area as well as its conformity with the applicable policy and regulatory framework. It included a land use compatibility assessment (“D-6 Assessment”). The consultant also provided wording for the proposed RI-XX zone. The proposed by-law is Exhibit A to this staff report. Conceptual Drawings A conceptual site plan (The Boulevard Group, Revision 2, December 2024) was submitted to demonstrate how the proposed lot would be developed. Floor plan and building elevation drawings were also provided to help with visualization. Hydrogeological Assessment A Hydrogeological Assessment (CCR Environmental Inc., February 25, 2025) was submitted in support of the application. The consultant completed the assessment on the understanding that all process water would be brought to the site and no process water would be disposed of in the sewage system. The well water would only be for staff consumption and the sewage system would be for domestic use (e.g. kitchen, washroom). The report concluded that the drilled well is capable of sustaining, long-term, water supply for a five-person factory capacity with low potential for water quantity impacts to existing neighbouring properties. It recommended that the developer retain a qualified water treatment company to provide effective treatment options for filtration and disinfection. The Hydrogeological Assessment is being reviewed by a third party consultant on behalf of the Township. Traffic Brief A Traffic Brief (DRP Engineering & Design, October 5, 2024) was submitted in support of the application. The consultant completed the assessment on the understanding that the development will have minimal traffic activity, including daily employee parking, limited www.southfrontenac.net South Frontenac is a welcoming and thriving rural community.

Township of South Frontenac Staff Report Number: 2025-054

Page 122 of 199

truck deliveries, and infrequent service vehicle visits. The report concluded that an access point can be safely located at any position along the site’s frontage, and that the minimum traffic generated by the site will result in a negligible impact on the surrounding road network. They do not anticipate any traffic concerns from the proposed development. The Traffic Brief is being reviewed by Public Services. Department and Agency Comments

Department comments were not received before this report was finalized. Public Comments

No public comments were received before this report was finalized. Discussion The proposed zoning by-law amendment will need to be assessed against the applicable policies of the Provincial Planning Statement 2024, County of Frontenac Official Plan, and Township of South Frontenac Official Plan, as well as the provisions of Zoning By-law No. 2003-75 as amended. A detailed policy analysis will be provided in a subsequent report to Council following the public meeting. The report may include a by-law for consideration by Council. Staff anticipate that the draft by-law will need to be refined based on the forthcoming detailed policy analysis and consideration of comments received at the public meeting.

Zoning By-law Amendment Application PL-ZBA-2025-0001, Trousdale (P.A. Miller Surveying Ltd.), 1125, 1127 and 1137 Willy’s Lane, Fourteen Island Lake

Report Number:

2025-055

Summary This report recommends that Council pass a by-law to change the zone on a property on Willy’s Lane on Fourteen Island Lake. The zoning on portions of the subject lands would change from Rural (RU) to site-specific Limited Services Residential – Waterfront zones (RLSW-145 and RLSW-146). These zones would acknowledge that the two proposed lots would be accessed by a private lane. They would also permit one of the lots to have two cottages and three sleeping cabins, and allow one of the lots to be one acre in size. Recommendation That the Zoning By-law Amendment Application (File Number PL-ZBA-2025-0001) submitted by Trousdale (P.A. Miller Surveying Ltd.), regarding 1125, 1127 and 1137 Willy’s Lane, Fourteen Island Lake, be approved; That By-law 2025-27, attached to Report Number 2025-055, as Exhibit A, being a By-law to amend the zoning on lands known as Part of Lots 3 and 4, Concession 11, District of Portland, Township of South Frontenac, be given first and second reading; and That By-law 2025-27 be presented to Council for third reading. Background The subject property is 220 acres on Fourteen Island Lake with access by Willy’s Lane. The lands consist of forest and wetland. There are six cottages on this property. According to MPAC, these cottages were constructed between 1940 and 1965. All the buildings are set back less than 30m from the highwater mark of Fourteen Island Lake. The Owner desires to sever two waterfront lots. Lot 1 would be 2.0ha (4.9 acres) and contain two of the cottages and their accessory buildings (including three sleeping cabins). These cottages are addressed 1125 and 1127 Willy’s Lane. Lot 2 would be 0.4ha (1.0 acre) and contain one of the cottages and their accessory buildings (including one sleeping www.southfrontenac.net South Frontenac is a welcoming and thriving rural community.

Township of South Frontenac Staff Report Number: 2025-055

cabin). This cottage is addressed 1137 Willy’s Lane. Consent applications will be submitted if Council approves the zoning by-law amendment. Council held a public meeting under the Planning Act on March 11, 2025. Councillor Morey asked whether the boundaries of Lot 2 could be extended to Willy’s Lane and/or along the shoreline to achieve the minimum lot area requirement (2.5 acres). Councillor Trueman asked if there would be enough space for a sewage system on Lot 2. Paul Miller, agent for the application, explained the rationale behind the size and shape of the lots and the considerations for sewage system installation. It is the owner’s intent to retain the remaining cottages on the larger property. The proposed one-acre lot area includes sufficient land for a new sewage system more than 30m from the lake, should one be required in the future. Staff explained the process to request permission to enlarge the buildings that are located less than 30m from the highwater mark, in response to a question from Mayor Vandewal. Jim Pine spoke on behalf of himself and Susan Pine in support of the application. They lease the cottage at #1125. Tim Brown, 1270 Willy’s Lane, clarified that their property has a registered lease for access over Willy’s Lane. They wanted to ensure that they would not lose this access as part of the consent applications. Staff confirmed that legal access would carry forward. Mr. Brown also raised concern about lane maintenance. It was suggested that it would be beneficial for the residents on the lane to work out an agreement for maintaining the lane, as it is not something that can be dealt with through the zoning by-law amendment and consent applications. Quinte Conservation indicated on February 15, 2025, that it had no objection to the rezoning application as presented. They noted that a permit under O. Reg. 41/24 would be required for any development and site alteration within 30m of floodplains and wetlands and within 45m of any watercourse. Discussion The proposed zoning by-law amendment was assessed against the applicable policies of the Provincial Planning Statement 2024, County of Frontenac Official Plan, and Township of South Frontenac Official Plan, as well as the provisions of Zoning By-law No. 2003-75 as amended. The property is designated Rural, except for wetlands, which are designated Environmental Protection. The property is zoned Rural (RU), except for the wetlands at the south end of the property, which are zoned Environmental Protection (EP). The proposed lots are far removed from all the wetlands. The PPS and County Official Plan speak to permitting resource-based recreational uses, including recreational/seasonal dwellings, as well as residential development that are sensitive to the surroundings and where site conditions are suitable for the provision of appropriate sewage and water services. www.southfrontenac.net South Frontenac is a welcoming and thriving rural community.

The Township Official Plan permits a wide range of uses in the Rural designation including limited service residential uses. The type and amount of development on ‘Rural’ lands must maintain the rural character, natural heritage, and cultural landscape in the Township. The Zoning By-law permits one dwelling per lot, and one sleeping cabin accessory to a dwelling on waterfront lots. Proposed Lot 1 would contain two existing dwellings and three existing sleeping cabins. Section 5.7.7 of the Township Official Plan requires any lot created for limited service residential purposes to have a frontage, size and shape that is appropriate for the proposed use and that conforms to the Zoning By-law provisions. These policies require lots to be a minimum of 1.0ha (2.5 acre) in size with 91m water frontage and 76m frontage on a private road. The municipality may consider reductions to these requirements provided the overall intent of the Official Plan is maintained. The RLSW-145 zone will require Proposed Lot 1 to have a minimum 2.0ha (4.9 acre) lot area, double the minimum waterfront lot area requirement. The lot would have the required minimum 91m water frontage, measured between side lot lines. The actual shoreline length would be 176m. The lot is accessed by Willy’s Lane, but it would not technically have lot frontage on the lane as defined in the Zoning By-law. The RLSW-145 zone acknowledges that the lot would have 0m frontage on Willy’s Lane. The depth of the lot would provide flexibility for locating new buildings or sewage systems at least 30m from the highwater mark of Fourteen Island Lake, should any development be proposed in the future. Proposed Lot 1 would contain two existing cottages and their accessory buildings (including three sleeping cabins). The RLSW-145 zone will recognize the existing two cottages and three sleeping cabins. These buildings would continue to be legal non-conforming uses for the purpose of section 5.10.2 of the Zoning By-law due to their age and locations less than 30m from the highwater mark of Fourteen Island Lake. The RLSW-146 zone will require Proposed Lot 2 to have a minimum 0.4ha (1.0 acre) lot area, recognizing that the lot is on a long, narrow peninsula, and is already developed. The lot has 285m of shoreline, but only about 25m water frontage, measured between side lot lines. The RLSW-146 zone permits the lot to have 25m waterfrontage. The lot would not have frontage on a private lane due to its distance from Willy’s Lane, however it would have a right-of-way over the retained lands to the lane, and on the lane itself. The RLSW-146 zone acknowledges that the lot would have 0m frontage on Willy’s Lane. The reduced area and frontages would not impact the continued use of the lot. The depth of the lot would provide flexibility for locating a sewage system at least 30m from the highwater mark, should one be required for the existing cottage in the future. Conclusion It is the opinion of staff that the proposed zoning by-law amendment is consistent and conforms to the Provincial Planning Statement 2024 and the County of Frontenac Official www.southfrontenac.net South Frontenac is a welcoming and thriving rural community.

Amendment to Noise By-law

Report Number:

2025-051

Summary The purpose of the Report is to provide Council with background information regarding a recommended amendment to By-law 2015-41, As Amended, “A By-law to Prohibit and Regulate Noise Within the Township of South Frontenac” (Noise By-law). Recommendation That Council approve the proposed amendment to the Noise By-law, as outlined in Exhibit A of Report Number 2025-051 related to the definition of “point of reception”; That By-law 2025-31 be given first and second reading; and That By-law 2025-31 be presented to Council for third reading. Background On August 4, 2015, Council enacted By-law 2015-41, “A By-law to Prohibit and Regulate Noise Within the Township of South Frontenac”. This By-law provides the Township of South Frontenac with the ability to regulate and prohibit noise that is likely to disturb residents. The Noise By-law has been amended on four occasions since September 2022. Discussion/Analysis Following consultation with the Township Solicitor, staff recommend that the definition of “point of reception” be amended to provide clarity which will assist in the application of the Noise By-law. The current definition of “point of reception” reads as follows: “o) “point of reception” means any point on a premises where noise from other than those premises is received;”. Staff recommend that the existing definition be deleted in its entirety and be replaced with the following: “o) A point of reception shall refer to: www.southfrontenac.net South Frontenac is a welcoming and thriving rural community.

Automatic Aid Agreement with Central Frontenac

Report Number:

2025-049

Summary The purpose of the Report is to provide Council with background information necessary for consideration of renewing an Automatic Aid Agreement with the Township of Central Frontenac Fire Department. Recommendation That Council renew the automatic aid agreement with Central Frontenac, attached to Report Number 2025-049 as Exhibit A for the provision of fire protection services in specific areas of each municipality. That the contract be renewed with a 60-day termination clause by either party. Background In 2024, the Township of South Frontenac entered into an automatic aid agreement with Central Frontenac. During 2024, South Frontenac assisted Central Frontenac on six occasions under this agreement and Central Frontenac Assisted South Frontenac on two occasions under this agreement. Due to geographical distances and conditions, it is sometimes advantageous for Fire Departments to immediately require assistance from the Fire Department of a neighbouring municipality at the same time that the alarm is forwarded to the Fire Department within whose jurisdiction the incident occurred. The Automatic Aid Program is created to provide vital fire protection services which will ultimately improve the level of public safety for the residents. Automatic Aid is intended to be used on a day-to-day basis in order to meet the following objectives: a. Ensure the closest fire station immediately responds to an emergency, irrespective of existing municipal boundaries; b. Assemble an adequate fire attack crew. This crew may be made up of personnel and equipment from two or more Fire Stations; and c. Provide equipment and personnel, particularly at the boundaries of municipalities, where protection may be otherwise limited. www.southfrontenac.net South Frontenac is a welcoming and thriving rural community.

Township of South Frontenac Staff Report Number: 2024-81

Page 178 of 199

Discussion/Analysis Fire Departments in Frontenac County are dispatched through dispatch atoms. Each municipality contains a number of dispatch atoms. A dispatch atom is a geographic area in which response levels are pre-programmed into an automatic dispatch system to assign the closest and most appropriate resources by incident type. The agreement attached as Exhibit A deals specifically with South Frontenac fire dispatch atoms 102, 103 and 304 listed under schedule A and pictured under schedule B of the agreement. These atoms are serviced by South Frontenac Fire Station 1 (Bradshaw) that has a total of 6 personnel and South Frontenac Fire Station 2 that has a total of 5 personnel. Currently Station 3 (Verona) with 10 personnel is required to be dispatched to all emergencies within the affected atoms to ensure an adequate level of personnel on scene to mitigate the emergency. Central Frontenac Parham Fire Station with a staff of 20 personnel can respond quicker than Station 3 and with significantly more personnel. Additionally, the agreement further addresses Central Frontenac fire dispatch atom 601 where there is limited staff and no pumper truck at the Piccadilly Fire Station which is staffed with a unit for medical responses. South Frontenac Fire Station 3 is in close proximity to the Central Frontenac border and can respond quicker within the first 8 km of Central Frontenac fire atom 601. Therefore, an automatic aid agreement ensures the closest fire stations immediately respond to an emergency, irrespective of existing municipal boundaries and assemble an adequate fire attack crew. This automatic aid agreement gives each municipality an immediate response improvement with increased protection for residents within the affected areas. The agreement will be reviewed annually at which time response data, risk, staffing levels and response times will be reviewed. Financial Implications The financial impact is minimal and within the normal operating budget given the anticipated low number of response for each municipality to the affected areas.

Page 180 of 199 Automatic Aid Agreement This Agreement made in duplicate this _______ day of _______________, 2025, Between The Corporation of The Township of Central Frontenac (Hereinafter called the “Central Frontenac”) Of the First Part and The Corporation of The Township of South Frontenac (Hereinafter called the “South Frontenac”) Of the Second Part Whereas Section 2 (6) of the Fire Protection and Prevention Act, Chapter 4, Statutes of Ontario, 1997, authorizes a municipality to enter automatic aid agreements with other municipalities to provide and/or receive fire protection services; And Whereas both Central Frontenac and South Frontenac operate fire protection services and manages assets suitable to meet municipal responsibilities required by the Fire Protection Act, through a fire department situated within Central Frontenac and South Frontenac; And Whereas both Central Frontenac and South Frontenac are prepared to make available fire protection services to each other, in their respective areas; Now Therefore in consideration of the mutual covenants, conditions, considerations and payments herein contained, Central Frontenac and South Frontenac mutually agree as follows:

Introduction Due to geographical distances and conditions, it is sometimes advantageous for Fire Departments to immediately require assistance from another Fire Department at the same time that the alarm is forwarded to the Fire Department within whose jurisdiction the incident occurred. The Automatic Aid Program is created to provide vital fire protection services which will ultimately improve the level of public safety for the residents. Automatic Aid is intended to be used on a day-to-day basis in order to meet the following objectives: a. Ensure the closest fire station immediately responds to an emergency, irrespective of existing municipal boundaries; b. Assemble an adequate fire attack crew.

Subject:

SFFR Pumper and Tanker Purchase

Report Number:

2025-050

Summary This report outlines the rationale for request of approval to purchase a new pumper and tanker in advance of Fleet and Equipment Asset Management Plan and schedule. Recommendation That Council authorize the purchase of a new pumper with an upset limit of $725,000 and a new tanker with an upset limit of $690,000 for a total of $1,415,000 and; That the purchase be funded from the Fire Equipment Reserve in the amount of $300,000 and the remaining amount of $1,115,000 be funded and borrowed from the Asset Investment Reserve with repayment taking place in 2026 ($739,500) and 2027 ($375,500). Background During annual inspection in January 2025, Pumper 331 (2007 Pierce) failed annual safety inspection due to breakdown and deterioration of the apparatus frame rails. The spare pumper (2009 Spartan) that was purchased when Pumper 351 was being repaired under an insurance claim, was then moved into fulltime service at Station 5 and the insurance repaired pumper was put in service as Pumper 331 at Station 3. During annual inspection in January 2025, Pumper 361 (2006 Kenworth) failed annual safety inspection due to holes in the frame rail. The truck was taken out of service and Pumper 321 was relocated to Station 6 leaving Station 2 without a pumper. In April, Pumper 321 was returned to Station 2 and currently Station 6 does not have a pumper. During annual inspection in March 2025, Tanker 371 (2011 Kenworth) failed annual safety inspection due to significant breakdown and deterioration of the apparatus frame rails. The truck was taken out of service and currently Station 7 does not have a tanker. All 4 trucks that have failed frame rails have been housed for a period at Station 7 where there is significant moisture in the building including the November 2023 Council authorized replacement of P371 (2006 Pierce Pumper).

We’re currently in discussions with Leeds and 1000 Islands to borrow their training pumper for Station 6 until we can obtain a replacement pumper. Our KFLA Mutual Aid partners have been notified and kept updated on our truck status. We have implemented a formal truck undercoating protection program to prevent future frame rot. Discussion/Analysis We have considered repairs to frame rails, replacement of frame rails, purchase of used trucks and replacement of trucks which are detailed below. Pumper 331 Repair estimates in the $200,000 range were not considered as the truck is scheduled for replacement in 2027. This piece of equipment is currently being replaced by the use of the spare pumper that was purchased (2009 Spartan) that was purchased when Pumper 351 was being repaired under an insurance claim. Pumper 361 Consultation with an MTO engineer determined that the rails could not be repaired. A repair estimate is approximately $200,000 to replace the truck frame rails. As the truck is scheduled for replacement in 2026 this option was not considered. An assessment of the availability of a used fire apparatus in the market has been conducted taking into consideration availability, accessibility, location, costs and age. We have been unsuccessful in sourcing a suitable used replacement pumper in Canada. We sourced a used 2022 E-One pumper with a 1250 gpm pump and 750-gallon water tank out of the US for $950,000 USD. We sourced a new 2024 Dependable Freightliner Commercial Pumper out of the US for $671,171 USD. We sourced a new 2025 Freightliner Pumper with a 1500 gpm pump and 1250 poly tank out of the US for $483,000 USD. We sourced a new 2025 Freightliner Dependable Commercial Pumper with a 1500 gpm pump and 1,000 gallon water tank for $674,171 plus HST and equipment out of Brampton, Ontario from a vendor of record that was used for our last two apparatus purchases. Estimated delivery 4 weeks. Tanker 371 This truck is 14 years old and should have up to 11 years of continued service life. This truck is the same as Tanker 351 that just incurred a $67,000 expense for the leaking tank. Consultation with an MTO engineer determined that the rails could not be repaired. www.southfrontenac.net South Frontenac is a welcoming and thriving rural community.

Multiple venders of record from both the mechanical aptitude specializing in Heavy Vehicle Mechanics and Emergency Vehicle Technicians have advised that replacement of the frame rails would bare an initial cost of approximately $200,000 with an out of service date of 3 to 6 months. Heavy emphasis was placed on the complexity of repairs that would essentially require the complete dismantling of all components of the fire apparatus from the frame (including the pump, water tank, engine, transmission). Additional complications could quickly arise resulting in escalating costs of additional hundreds of thousand of dollars and increases in time. Due to the significant damage to the rails of the truck, this action has been discouraged. An estimate of $414,520 plus taxes was received to remove the tank and remount on to a new Kenworth T480 commercial chassis. If this approach was considered we’d have a new truck, and chassis however would be faced with replacing the pump and tank in 2031. However, this tank is the same age and style as the tank on tanker 351 that was recently repaired for $67,000. An assessment of the availability of a used fire apparatus in the market has been conducted taking into consideration ready availability, accessibility, location, costs and age. We have been unsuccessful in sourcing a suitable used replacement pumper in Canada. We sourced a 2025 Freightliner Commercial Tanker with a 1500 gpm pump and 3000gallon poly tank out of the US for $491,000 USD. We sourced a 2025 Kenworth Dependable Commercial Tanker with a 1000 gpm pump and 3000 gallon tank for $659,575 plus HST and equipment out of Brampton, Ontario from a vendor of record for our last two apparatus purchases. Estimated delivery 4 weeks. Financial Implications As Tanker 371 did not pass safety in March 2025, there is an immediate need for a replacement tanker. This is an unforeseen cost that is (11) years ahead of the regular useful life of 25 years. Replacement cost for a new tanker is estimated at an upset limit of $725,000. As Pumper 361 did not pass safety in January 2025, there is an immediate need a replacement pumper. This truck was scheduled for replacement in 2026. Replacement cost for a new pumper is estimated at an upset limit of $690,000. NFPA 1912 The Standard for Fire Apparatus Refurbishing was amended in 2016 to recommend that front line trucks be replaced at 15 years with new front run trucks while maintaining 15-to-20-year trucks as spares. We have taken the approach of extending the useful life cycle to 20 years for a pumper and 25 years for a tanker and squad. This may require reconsideration and reworking of the Long-Term Fleet Plan to find a reasonable and affordable balance. The purchase will partially be funded from the Fire Equipment Reserve in the amount of $300,000. The remaining funding of $1,115,000 will be borrowed from the asset investment reserve with repayment taking place in 2026 ($739,500) and 2027 ($375,500) instead of planned equipment purchases. www.southfrontenac.net South Frontenac is a welcoming and thriving rural community.
