Town of Bracebridge - G8 Project Proposal for Annie Williams Park
On January 21, 2009 I wrote to you outlining a number of projects that the Town of Bracebridge couldundertake in association with the 2010 G8 Summit. One of the projects listed was the construction of a newwashroom and storage facility at Annie Williams Park (See Appendix "A" attached for original project details).
Recently, a proposal was submitted by Bruce Kruger, who happens to be the Bracebridge Town Crier, for theconstruction of an open-air band shell in Annie Williams Park to serve as a focal point for musical andtheatrical performances and other cultural and community events. Details of Mr. Kruger's proposal areattached as Appendix "B".
After discussions with Town staff, I believe that there is a unique opportunity to combine the Town's initialproposal with the subsequent submission by Mr. Kruger lead'lng to the develop of a multi-functional structure atAnnie Williams park that could provide all of the suggested features. Attached as Appendix "C" is a locationmap for Annie Williams Park. As you are aware, the park is centrally located and is the focal point for manyTown activities.
In essence, the Town believes that there is an opportunity to construct one structure that would provide thewashroom and storage facilities that are badly needed at the park. Additionally, we believe through someinnovative design work, there is an opportunity to construct a new covered outdoor performance stage. Theperforming arts stage would serve as a gathering place for people and performances of all kinds, offering avenue for small bands, a single musical performer or small theatre companies. This could create a significantlong lasting economic development benefit for the Town from a tourism and cultural perspective.
Although detailed information regarding Summit plans is not currently available, we believe that this proposalcan have a close linkage to the G8 event. Our initial estimate for construction of the washroom and storagefacility was $150,000. The addition of a new covered outdoor performance stage will undoubtedly increasecosts to the $500,000 to $600,000 range. Subject to your comments and feedback from appropriate Federalstaff, the Town would be willing to initiate the development of a more detailed proposal for the project.
We greatly appreciate the opportunity to submit this project for your consideration. As indicated previously, Ilook forward to working closely with the members of the Local Area Leadership Group over the next two years.

Estimated Cost:
Between $500,000 to $1 ,000,000.

Expected Results:
Great public appreciation; the town would have an exceptional building for community oriented events, withsufficient funding landscaping could be built into this project. This would put Bracebridge on theSpring/Summer/Autumn scene for many tourist-oriented events to once again bring the multitudes to specialfunctions within our fantastic Town!

Town of Bracebridge - G8 Project Proposal for Annie Williams Park
Further to my April 8, 2009 memorandum, the Town of Bracebridge is pleased to provide some supplementaryinformation regarding the construction of a new washroom, storage facility and covered outdoor performancestage at Annie Williams Park (See Appendix "A" attached for location map).
New Multi-function Structure:
The proposed building will have a gross roofed area of approximately 7,500 square feet including the following:
A covered 1,600 square foot stage area for holding outdoor community theater events and other entertainmentevents that may require a larger outdoor venue. There will also be a stage wings area for the activitiesnecessary to support performances, including storage areas of approximately 2,800 square feet to be locatedon 3 sides of the stage.
The building will also include a space of approximately 1,100 square feet to accommodate accessible publicwashrooms. The washrooms will be available to park users during performance and during normal parkoperating hours. The addition of the new washroom facilities will replace the existing washrooms, which arewell beyond their useful life.
A roofed picnic shelter area will be attached to the south and east side of the building and will be available forpublic use. This area will be approximately 2,000 square feet in area.
A conceptual site plan is attached as Appendix "B". It is estimated that the cost of the building program will be$350,000.00
Site Servicing Costs:
The following site Servicing will be necessary to support the proposed building:
An upgraded electrical service will be installed to provide sufficient power for the stage and washroomoperation.
Upgraded water supply and sewage pump and force main will be installed to the new location. The length ofthis servicing will be in the range of 290 metres.
Because the events to be held at this venue will attract significantly more vehicles, it will be necessary toupgrade the existing driveway in the park from one lane to a 2-lane wide asphalt driveway.
The stone entrance gate will also need to be replaced to accommodate the widening of the entrance driveway.
Attached is a more detailed cost estimate for the site servicing. It is estimated that the cost of this servicing willbe approximately $259,000.00.

Gateway Signage Project
Further to discussions at General Committee with respect to the design of the Town's new gatewaysignage, the project team (including staff, contractor and contractor's designer) has considered severalsign sizes in conjunction with the actual site and the Town's corporate image (logo) and graphicstandards (logo standards).
It has been determined by the team that use of the Town's logo in a horizontal lay-out is unfeasible forthis purpose. After scaling the logo appropriately, the length of the rock/stone/sign required would exceedthe limits set by MTO (i.e. a 20 foot wide rock).
Following a site visit with the contractors and MTO, staff are proceeding with installation of the sign asfollows:
1. The sign will be constructed as part of a single rock as per the proposal submitted by GraphicEncounters in November;
2. The sign site be finished using appropriate landscaping as approved by MTO permit;
3. The "vertical" version of the logo be used;
4. That the vertical version of the logo be adjusted to reduce the size of the bridge/falls and increasethe size of BRACEBRIDGE to 14" in height and "The Heart of Muskoka" to a height of 10.5" (seeAppendix "A").
5. After a review of scientific literature on the topic of viewing times and highway signagespecifications, it has been determined that the Town's sign should be legible from 700 feet for aperiod of 7 seconds (i.e. travelling at 100 km/per hour).
6. The next steps in the process are:
a. Finalize the MTO approval for location #2 and the new permit for location #1. The signdesign for both locations will be identical.
b. An initial permit application for the sign at location #2 has been submitted to the Ministryof Transportation. It is proposed that Location #2 is approximately 1.4 miles south ofAlpine Ranch Road on the southbound lane of Highway 11. First revisions to the permitapplication are underway based on comments back from MTO.
c. The selection of the rocks for both sites is underway. The rocks are being sourced fromMuskoka quarries.

d. Once the rocks for the signs have been selected, the brushed aluminum lettering will befabricated. Ultimately, the colour of the rocks selected will dictate the colour choice forthe lettering in accordance with graphic standards (i.e. full colour, one tone of blue orblack). For this use, the option of using natural brushed aluminum for the lettering isbeing considered.
Although difficult winter conditions in December presented some challenges for staff and the signcontractor, staff are confident that, with rapid permit approvals, we will be able to meet the installationtarget date of March 31 st established for the project.
If you have additional comments or concerns please let me know by the end of January. We are in theprocess of completing revisions to our MTO applications.

Gateway Signage Project
Below is an update of the Gateway Sign Project that will progress quickly over the coming weeks.
The sign permits (both locations) from the Ontario Ministry of Transportation (MTO) were issued on March9th The Contractors' Traffic Control Plan was ap~roved by MTO on March 19th Additionally, as a resultof a new MTO requirement for 2010, on March 24 h, District Public Works Committee passed a resolulionsupporting our application.
The existing Gateway Sign at Highway 11 and Highway 118 was removed on March 30 and is currently atthe Town Hall. The bottom half will be scrapped immediately as it was damaged during that process (I.e.it was mounted on plywood).
Graphic Encounters, along with their landscape team located two feature granile stones in mid-Marchonce the snow had melted enough to look at the supply in Muskoka quarries. Last week, we visited thequarry and based on my approval the Contractors secured two feature granile stones that will act theanchor for the Town's graphic image. These stones will be picked up after the quarry opens on April1,t
A photograph of the "anchor rocks" is included below. Some preparation is required prior to selling (I.e.the uneven portion of the rock on the right) and once the anchor rocks are set they will be sandblasted tobring out the pink and black highlights.
7ct high X lQ'8" wiqe 7' highx lO'S"wide
The southbound site will require some significant site preparation including the building of a gravel baseappropriate drainage and a location "build up" using landscape rocks for which to mount the anchor signstone. It is expected that the southbound site will require less site preparation, however, the goal of theproject Is to produce two "identical" (or as close to identical as possible) entrances to the community.

The/learl ofMuskoka
The work plan is as follows:
MEMORANDUMDirector of Economic Development
• Location 1 (northbound) - anchor rock in place by April 7/8
• Location #2 (southbound) - site preparation beginning week of April 7'h; anchor rock in place by17'h
• Logo/sign mounted on rock by April 23'"
• Landscaping, lighting completed, and planting by April 30th
The logo application has not yet been confirmed. Once the anchor rock is in place, staff will work directlywith the Contractor to maximize the space to ensure that "BRACEBRIDGE" and "The Heart of Muskoka"are clearly visible to highway travelers.
The landscaping plan was revised (from the original proposal) in order to comply with MTO, maximumsize requirements. (i.e. size of planting bed plus anchor rock was required to meet the maximum size of 3m high X 6 m wide). This will require a review of the original landscaping, specifically plant materialslisting which is expected to be available next week.
With respect to the funding requirements, staff met with Federal staff monitoring the G8 projects lastweek. Discussions focused on challenges with completing the project over the fall and winter season andTown Staff provided an overview of completion schedule that will be well in advance of the G8. Staff istargeting total completion by end of April that will include the landscaping and plantings, provided that theweather continues to cooperate.
If you need additional information, please contact me.

6. In 2004, the Town underwent a process to establish a new graphic image to represent the Townunder the tagline, "The Heart of Muskoka".
7. Midway through the branding process, a sign was approved and installed includingelectrical/lighting at the approved MTO location on the southerly boundary. Additionally, a planfor landscaping was developed and implemented.

These itemswill be purchased from an existing supplier.
8. Electrical work for traffic lights will be undertaken by Dawson Incorporated as required by theDistrict Municipality of Muskoka.
9. Staff in the Public Works Department have met with the various contractors to determine the mostefficient and effective methods to undertake the proposed work. Additionally, staff has receivedcomments from several downtown BIA business members who have voiced concerns thatundertaking the work during business hours may have a detrimental effect on commercialoperations. As a result, and in recognition of the business concerns received, staff recommendthat the majority of disruptive work be undertaken outside of normal business hours as much asfeasible. Accordingly staff are proposing a schedule whereby work would be undertaken betweenthe hours of 6:00 p.m. and 12:00 a.m. By undertaking the work during this time, staff believe thiswork can be completed in a shorter time frame, thereby minimizing the overall impact of the entireproject on the downtown.
10. Providing the Municipal Clerk with authority to grant exemptions to the Noise Control By-lawthroughout the month of November until 12:00 a.m. will enable the contractors to complete thenecessary road works with as minimal disruption possible to the daytime traffic flow in downtownBracebridge.

Doug Sainsbury - Chairman Airport CommissionOctober 30, 2008G8 Summit - Huntsville - 2010
In the Fall of 2007 the Airport Commission, together with the stakeholders at the airport, put together astrategic plan. The plan outlined a number of goals and strategic actions that were required to ensure thecorltinued success of this regional asset. With the G8 Summit cOming to Huntsville in a couple of years anumber of the initiatives need to be addressed in the near future in order for the Airport to make a significantcontribution to the success of this event.
Both options call for the re-establishment of CAN PASS that was taken away after 9-11. We feel this will beessential to service the traffic into the airport during the G8 summit.
Option 1: This option details the items the airport needs to find funding for over the next two to three years inorder for it to maintain its current level of service and year to year growth. This option inclUdes resurfacing theeXisting runway, enlarging apron & taxiways, installing an electrical generator and renovating the terminalbuilding.
Option 2: This option increases the width and length of the runway to accommodate small jets and provides for • fuelling station for them. A small addition would be put onto the terminal building that would include a
wheelchair accessible washroom (there is no room to make the current washrooms in the terminal wheelchairaccessible) and a car rental/taxi office, A second septic bed would be added together with a fire hydrantinclUding necessary piping to draw water from Roberts Lake.

In order to respond effectively andmeet the challenges associated with the upcoming G8 Summit, WPSHC along withregional partners are prepared to extend responsibility and capacity to meet G8emergency health care needs with financial assistance from the Federal Government.
Objectives:
a. To protect the essential infrastructure and safe guard community health centreresponse and maintain WPSHC business continuity in the face of external threats.
b. To lift community information communication technology broadband bydeveloping ICTinfTastructure at WPSHC in collaboration with the Town of ParrySound and its Fire Hall site.
c. To harden the infrastructure of31 Municipal Emergency Operation Centres, 7First Nation Centres and 6 Nursing Stations based on the health centres hub sitestatus and outreach.
d. To offer a strong second line ofdefense when direct community facilities arepotentially over whelmed.
e. To provide the latest medical assessment technology including (CT Scanner,PACS, EHR, LIS), thus avoiding travel time delay (access for everyone)

Dear Mayor Coates:
On behalf on Minister Clement, thank you for submitting a 2010 G8Summit project proposal for the Visitor Information Centre (also Chamber of Commerceoffice) walkway repairs.
The response to the Minister's call for G-8 project proposals has beenremarkable. As ofMay 30, 2009, we have received over 232 proposals, totalling morethan $254 million, far exceeding our expectations. Unfortunately, budget limitations,funding requirements and competing priorities restrict our ability to fund all of these localG8-related initiatives. Consequently, we have determined that the focus and priority offederal support for community based, G8 Summit-related projects will includepromotional activities for the area, infrastructure and legacy projects.
The department has reviewed all proposals received in accordance with theabove considerations. Projects supported under the G8 Infrastructure and Legacy Fundhave been or will be announced shortly.
Unfortunately, I regret that we will be unable to support your proposalunder the G8 Infrastructure and Legacy Fund. However, I encourage you to visitFedNor's website to determine whether your project meets its program criteria and/orspeak with either ofthe FedNor officers listed below regarding consideration of yourproposal.
