ITEM NO CS 11026
MEETING DATE February 9 2011
SUBJECT Uniform collection services and further restrictions on curbside garbage
full user pa or clear bags
RECOMMENDATION
THAT Item CS 11026 providing information with respect to the transition to a truly uniform
collection service and further restrictions on curbside garbage as outlined within Item CS 11026
be received for information
AND THAT Option D full user pay as outlined within Item CS 11026 recommended in the
Waste Management Strategy for implementation in the next waste collection contract be
approved
RELATIONSHIP TO THE WASTE MANAGEMENT STRATEGY
The Waste Management Strategy recommends that at the beginning of the next collection
contract further restrictions on curbside garbage be implemented in order to increase waste
reduction reuse and recycling The strategy examined a number of options includingi An increase in the cost of additional bag tags so as to allow residents flexibility for
additional set outs while discouraging their use on a regular basis or
ii Transition to a fixed one bag limit for curbside garbage where residents are not permittedto purchase tags for extra bags or
iii Transition to a full user pay program which requires residents to purchase a tag or specialbag for all garbage set out at the curb with the revenues from the sale of tags or specialbags used to fund the collection and disposal of garbage reducing the cost passed on
through municipal taxes or levies
A full user pay system for garbage is included in the Waste Management Strategy implementationschedule for roll out early in the new collection contract
The Waste Management Strategy also recommended that depending on the success of earlier
curbside garbage restrictions a clear garbage bag program be considered in year 5 of the plan
Further the Waste Management Strategy recommends that the County transition to a trulyuniform collection service with the next collection contract which will commence in July 2012
This report will address the definition of eligible serviced unit in order that collection of
garbage organics and recyclables is provided where reasonable
BACKGROUND
Waste Management Department staff are currently working to develop the new County wide
collections Request For Proposals RFP for provision of regular waste collections only garbage
February 9 2011 Corporate Services Committee CS 11026 Page 2
recycling and organics This report will therefore address the Strategy recommendations with
respect to uniform collection services as well as the recommendation with respect to further
restrictions on curbside garbage Further restrictions to curbside garbage are needed as identified
in the Waste Strategy in order to continue to drive necessary waste reduction and increase
participation and capture rates in the blue box and green bin programs It is noted that any type of
restrictions may be seen as a reduction in service by residents therefore an extensive promotionand education campaign surrounding the implementation of any new program would be
necessary
Staff have provided below a brief description of various programs to further restrict curbside
garbage a comparison of the systems and later identified some of the ongoing issues that exist
including an analysis of the impacts of each of the options for Councils consideration
Since the Waste Management Strategy recommends a new Countywide collection contract to
begin in July of 2012 staff have begun to extend the existing collection contracts to that date
Working backwards from that date staff suggest the following optimal timelines be followed to
competitively tender the needed work
1 Mid March 2011 Request for Proposal let for collection work allow 2 months for bid
submissions2 Mid May 2011 Submission deadline for Requests for Proposal to be received by the
County 1 month analysis and recommendation to Council in June 20113 End of June 2011 Council endorsement ofpreferred Contractor
4 July 2011 July 2012 New Contractor order and acquisition of new equipment for
contract 12 month allowed for adequate time to acquire all new equipment and work out
details ofnew collection program and routing
Option A status quo
The status quo would maintain the existing system of bag limits as well as the existingavailability of bag tags at 2 each for additional waste It is noted that this system does not
provide an additional incentive to reduce and divert waste Remaining with this option wouldresult in disposal capacities continuing to decline and would require alternative disposalarrangements earlier than the two 2 year timeframe for garbage transfer outside of the Countywhich was scheduled for implementation in the Waste Management Strategy
Option B status quo plus increased bag tag cost for additional bags
This option would keep the existing bag limit but significantly increase the cost of bag tags for
additional garbage thereby allowing residents the flexibility for additional garbage while
discouraging their use on a regular basis The Strategy suggested that if this option were chosen
that the price of bag tags increase from the current 2 each to 4 per tag The increased cost of
bag tags would provide some monetary incentive to residents to do their part to reduce waste and
divert materials through the existing blue box and green bin programs if they are not alreadydoing so However the change to an increased cost of tags does not provide an incentive to
further reduce or divert waste for those already able to meet the one bag limit Staff notes that
the usage of additional bag tags for extra garbage in the county is minor with an average only 2
tags per household purchased in 2010 Therefore increasing the cost of tags would likely onlyhave a limited effect on waste generation and diversion rates
February 9 2011 Corporate Services Committee CS 11026 Page 3
Option C fixed one bag limit
The transition to a fixedone bag limit County wide would mirror the program utilized in Adjala
Tosorontio where residents are permitted to place only one bag at the curb and do not have the
option to purchase tags for additional garbage This program does provide incentive to reduce
waste generation and increase waste diversion through the existing blue box and green bin
programs It does however also remove all flexibility for additional garbage should a resident
have a medical need for additional waste or as a result of special events clean ups etc
It is noted that while this option would result in a reduction in the amount of garbage collected at
curbside it would also likely result in a significant increase in the amount of garbage delivered to
waste management facilities by residents An analysis of residential garbage drop off by
municipality indicates that AdjalaTosorontio residents deliver an average of 84 kgs of garbage
per household per month by far the highest of any municipality in the County versus the County
average of 33 kgs per household per month It would be anticipated that this type of program
would result in a significant increase in the amount of traffic to County waste management
facilities This option would potentially necessitate the addition of new waste management
facilities in order to adequately manage this garbage
Option D full user pay program
This option to further restrict curbside garbage was determined to be the most appropriate option
for the County through the Waste Management Strategy process as it provides the greatest
potential to increase diversion rates as compared to the other waste restriction options identified
Full user pay programs also called pay as you throw programs have been implemented in
approximately sixty 60 Ontario municipalities including Oxford County Wellington County
City of Stratford Northumberland County Quinte and the City of Belleville Attached as
Schedule 1 is information with respect to other Ontario municipalities utilizing a full user pay
system Currently the County of Simcoe and many other Ontario municipalities have what is
described as partial user pay systems where a limited number of bags are permitted prior to the
use of purchased tags or identifiable bags for additional garbage Full user pay refers to the fact
that all garbage bags must have a tag affixed or waste must be contained in special identifiable
bags in order to be collected Full user pay systems have the potential to result in both a reduction
in waste generation and divert waste through higher participation in waste diversion programs
based on the financial incentive to reduce waste
In a full user pay program the revenue from tagibag sales is used to cover the cost of the garbage
collection and disposal thereby eliminating the garbage collection and disposal cost passed on
through municipal taxes and levies the cost of diversion programs remains A full user pay
system for garbage can be more equitable as residents pay for the garbage that they are actually
producing rather than the existing system where residents that generate little garbage are doing a
good job of diverting waste are in effect subsidizing those that produce more garbage
A full user pay system would be an adjustment as residents would pay out ofpocket for weekly
garbage collection and disposal costs however this program provides the needed incentive to
reduce waste and actively participate in County curbside diversion programs
February 9 2011 Corporate Services Committee CS 11026 Page 4
Option E clear bag program
The final option put forward in the Waste Management Strategy for further restrictions oncurbside garbage is a clear garbage bag program This option was not scheduled forconsideration until year five S of the Strategy as it was included as a contingency to be utilizedif one of the three 3 restriction options Options B C and D identified above were not assuccessful as anticipated This option has been included in this report for consideration due torecommendation CS 0411 from the January 2011 County Council meeting
THATstaffbe requested to report on the potential increase in diversion rates by using clearplastic bags including the cost ofimplementation a comparison ofcommunication costs versusthe cost of implementing the clearplastic bagprogram and related matters
It is noted that although the resolution requested an analysis of clear bag program implementationcost versus the cost of a communication program the two are not mutually exclusive In fact anyprogram to further restrict curbside garbage would require a significant and sustained promotionand education campaign in order to support it A strong communications component is vital tothe success of any new waste management program With respect to costs for the school programversus implementation of a clear bag program referred to at the January Council meeting the netannual operating cost to the County for the schools Learning and Living Green program isapproximately 7000 in operational expenses for vehicle operating costs and staffing forcollection vehicle The portion of Staff cost from the 2011 budget required to provide assistancewith the School education program is estimated at approximately 46000 It is noted that theagreements with the local school boards for County provision of collection of divertible materialsare for a five year term Staff would not recommend cessation of the school program regardlessof any programs implemented to further restrict curbside garbage as the school program isworthwhile in its own right Early cessation of the school program would also likely have legalramifications and as the school program has already gained recognition cessation could result ina negative impact to the Countys image
A clear bag program is one where every bag of waste that is put out for curbside collection mustbe clear in order to allow collections staff to visually inspect the material and refuse collection ifthe garbage is seen to contain divertible materials This type of program is more of anenforcement based program than an incentive based program Clear bag programs can besuccessful in driving waste diversion ie getting residents to fully participate in blue box andgreen bin programs but do not assist in reducing waste generation in the manner that a full userpay system would
County staff has concerns with this type of program due to potential privacy issues This topicwas discussed some time ago with a representative of the Information and PrivacyCommission Although the Commission directed staff to documentation that addressed relevantprivacy considerations they were unable to provide further guidance on the matter noting theirobligation to remain impartial in the event they were required to investigate and render a decisionrelated to a privacy complaint Staff also sought guidance from a representative of the Office ofthe Chief Information and Privacy Officer Ministry of Government Services who identifiedprivacy considerations and the need to fully explore the privacy aspects prior to implementingsuch a program If Council were to direct staff towards this type of program more detailedresearch and legal advice into the privacy implications and any other infringements would be
February 9 2011 Corporate Services Committee CS 11026 Page 5
necessary
Some jurisdictions have developed somewhat of a workaround to the privacy issue by allowingresidents to have one opaque bag within the clear bag to contain sensitive items however it is
noted that a one opaque bag may not be large enough to contain items such as adult diapers or
other items of a sensitive nature and b the presence of this bag reduces the effectiveness of the
clear bag program by enabling divertible materials to be hidden in the garbage Another majorissue with this type of program is that it puts even more pressure on collections staff for
enforcement and on County Customer Services resources to address complaints Frequently the
Countys Customer Service Centre receives calls where residents feel that their neighbours are
receiving special treatment with respect to garbage collections Judgment calls will be needed to
collect a bag that contains perhaps a couple of small divertible items versus a bag that contains
one very visible divertible item in addition there is a human error component on the part
residents and on the part of collections staff Other municipalities have also noted
implementation issues with respect to the availability of suitable clear bags at retail outlets as well
as issues with residents not being able to utilize small typically white kitchen garbage bags to
contain garbage
Attached as Schedule 2 is information with respect to other municipalities utilizing a clear bag
program It is noted the many of the clear bag programs were implemented as the only restriction
on curbside garbage meaning that there was not restrictive bag limits in place in those
municipalities prior to the clear bag program being implemented Therefore those same results
could not be expected should the County move to a clear bag program as the County already has a
stringent bag limit in place More recently Durham Region and Markham piloted clear bag
programs both municipalities already had restrictive bag limits in effect much like those in the
County of Simcoes existing program Durham Region found that the clear bag pilot onlyincreased diversion by 37 while Markham found that the clear bag program actually had a
detrimental effect on diversion performance Both municipalities ultimately chose not to
implement a clear bag program The City of Guelph is another municipality that had had a long
standing clear bag program but has recently decided to move away from it in favour of an
automated container system

Potential Illegal Dumping Impacts
Staff notes that any further restrictions to curbside garbage could have the potential for increasedillegal dumping Of the options the strict one bag limit restriction would have the most potentialfor a negative effect as residents would not have the flexibility to purchase additional tagsbagsfor additional waste Generally speaking when a new program to restrict garbage isimplemented there are some increases in the incidence of illegal dumping but they are generallytemporary in nature
Potential Impacts to Waste Levy
With respect to the potential impact to the County waste levy all of the options with theexception of full user pay would result in the waste levy remaining relatively unchanged Using2011 budget estimates a full user pay system would eliminate the garbage collection and disposalcost from the basic waste levy no optional collections bringing it from approximately 150 perhousehold to 70 per household a savings of approximately 80 per household with residentsrequired to purchase tags or bags to fund the cost of garbage collection and disposal
Potential Promotion and Education Cost Impacts
With respect to estimated promotion and education costs staff note that the Waste ManagementStrategy suggests that a 7 per household annual cost for promotion and education of all waste
management programs be implemented for the first five years of the new program in order to
engender the necessary behavior changes necessary to support the programs For comparisonpurposes the 2011 Waste Management Department operating budget included approximately 5per household for promotion and education including development printing distribution etc
necessary for all waste management programs As identified earlier in this Item a significantand sustained communications component is vital to the success of any major system changeThis is particularly true with respect to waste reduction initiatives as it is more difficult to achieveas it requires a sustained change in consumer attitudes and behaviors
Potential Impacts to the Customer Service Department
Customer Service will be impacted by any program changes These impacts would be most
significant with options D or E Based on experience with other significant changes such as
reduced garbage limits and implementation of the organics program Customer Service wouldneed to staff up for a few months leading up to the change and for the first six months after
program implementation Any of these options would also likely result in a new normal level ofincreased calls as was seen with implementation of the green bin program The call relatedtargets average speed of answer average talk time and average abandonment rate are
negatively impacted during the first six months after program implementation
Potential Impacts to County Waste Facilities
With respect to the potential impact of any of the options to further restrict curbside garbage on
County waste management facilities it is noted that all of the options with the exception of
Option A Status Quo and Option B Status Quo plus increased costtag are likely to result in
February 9 2011 Corporate Services Committee CS 11026 Page 7
traffic increases at waste management facilities Of the options the strict one bag limit restriction
could have the most potential for a negative effect as residents would not have the flexibility to
purchase additional tagsbags for additional waste Additionally the option for clear bags would
require some type of enforcement at waste facilities to ensure that residents are not circumventingthe curbside enforcement It is noted that many County waste management facilities are alreadyimpacted with long scale line ups at certain times of the week Saturday morning in particularFacilities also have issues with the lack of space for needed diversion programs lack of queuingspace and in some cases poor traffic flow within the sites due to their small size all of which
would be negatively impacted by the increased traffic that would result from implementation of
any of these options
Issues with Existing Garbage Collection System
Following is an outline of some significant issues with the Countys existing garbage collection
system The issues are first discussed and following is an analysis of how they might be
addressed through the options identified
Uniform Collection Services Seasonal
Public consultation during the Waste Management Strategy process indicated that the majority of
residents were in favour of a uniform level of collection service The Waste ManagementStrategy recommended that the definition of an eligible serviced unit be reexaminedparticularly with respect to seasonal areas Currently many roads in seasonal areas are very small
and not maintained to municipal standards Historically the County has provided curbside
collection services only on those roads which received service prior to County assumption of
waste management Additional areas of service were added when municipal amalgamationoccurred in 1994 particularly in Severn Township where many areas had not received waste
collection services previously Typically residents on small and private roads receive curbside
collection if the truck can access the street and turn around safely Many roads however onlyreceive collection at central collection points meaning residents must bring materials out to a
common collection point where their road meets an accessible route These common collection
points have significant issues as it is impossible to enforce bag limits ownership of waste is not
identifiable litter from animals getting into garbage and illegal dumping of unacceptablematerials are also major concerns As units without ownership of waste were not eligible for
the green bin program seasonal areas utilizing common collection points have also remained at
the previous two bag limit for garbage
In order to provide collection services to seasonal areas consistent with those provided to other
residents in the County the following requirements to be included in the new collections RFP in
order to address both the uniform service level recommended in the Strategy as well as the issues
outlined above
a All highly seasonal areas will be required to receive waste collection service early in the
week preferably Mondays thereby reducing the amount of time that waste is retained at
the location and reducing the impact by animals
b The successful collections proponent will be required to utilize specialized collection
vehicles such that they can service even small roads which historically did not receive
service thereby eliminating the majority of central collection points This would enable
ownership of waste making enforcement of bag limits and provision of green bin services
February 9 2011 Corporate Services Committee CS 11026 Page 8
viable and it is anticipated reducing litter impacts as well as the incidence of illegaldumping
Other issues regularly encountered in highly seasonal areas are with respect to an inequitycommonly expressed by seasonal residents in that they pay for waste collection services yearround yet only utilize the service for a portion of the year As restrictions on curbside garbage in
the form of bag limits have been applied over time the issue has become exacerbated It is notedthat staff feel that Option D full user pay best addresses the concerns of these residents as theywould only be charged through purchase of bag tags for the garbage they generate when theyattend their seasonal property Additional issues are encountered with residents in municipalitiesthat apply the waste levy based on assessment values rather than the actual cost of service themethod by which the County waste levy is collected remains at the prerogative of the Town or
Township but has been recommended by County staff to be done on a per unit utility basis This
results in a resident with a valuable waterfront property having a very high assessment payingsignificantly more for waste services than the actual cost of service and not receiving the benefit
of service year round
Uniform Collection Services Industrial Commercial and Institutional ICI
The lack of uniform levels of collection service is not limited to seasonal areas but includes a
significant number of Industrial Commercial and Institutional ICI locations as well The
County has legislated authority to provide waste collection services to residential locations with
up to 5 units per location Multifamily complexes with greater than 5 residential units per
property are considered by the province to be commercial for which the County does not have
legislated authority for provision of waste services However when the County assumed
responsibility for waste management in 1990 it generally maintained the same service as was
provided by the local municipality meaning that in some municipalities services are provided to
ICI locations situated in downtown areas in some municipalities collection services were
provided to any ICI location that requested it and in other municipalities little to no service was
provided to ICI locations In 2007 staff sought direction from Council with respect to ICI
locations through report WMS 07004 the report resulted in direction from Council to maintain
the status quo ie not adding any additional ICI locations but to not take away service from
those locations already receiving it This resulted in waste collection service being grandfatheredat a variety of ICI locations and as no new services were to be added to the ICI sector theywere not eligible for the green bin program and maintained their previous bag limit The baglimits for ICI locations which receive service are also an area of inconsistency depending on
the situation bag limits may be two 2 bags five 5 bags or in some situations remains almost
unlimited In addition it is almost impossible to enforce bag limits at ICI locations as it is
unclear how many units there are at a particular location the number of units within a location
can change frequently and there is often a mix commercial and residential within one buildingwith each having different bag limits This has resulted in a lack of uniformity confusion and
frustration New businesses often enquire for provision of service and are turned down based on
Councils 2007 direction however often their neighbouring businesses receive collection service
and they are assessed the waste management levy on their taxes by the local municipality It is
recommended by staff that utilization of Option D would best address many of the issues
presented in the ICI sector
Over time Waste Management staff have worked to compile a list of locations where ICI
service is provided however the list is incomplete and there is much disparity between what is
February 9 2011 Corporate Services Committee CS 11026 Page 9
on the listing and what is actually receiving collection For example during the summer of 2010
the Waste Management Dept coop student was tasked with determining the extent of ICI
collections in some municipalities it was found that many more ICI locations were actuallyreceiving collection service than what we were aware of This is due to the lack of information
with respect to ICI locations when the County took direct responsibility for collections and due
to the fact that reviewing of lengthy lists is onerous to collection staff In some cases ICI
locations were found to be receiving excessive garbage collection service and in most cases ICI
locations were found to not be participating in waste diversion programs The current system is
inequitable and does not encourage diversion in the ICI sector
The Strategy recommendation to provide uniform collection service therefore must also consider
collection service to the ICI sector It is important to note that each element of the waste systemis interconnected and in order to move forward with waste reduction and diversionprograms a
truly standardized system is needed Waste Management Department staff has considered this
complex subject for some time and while uniformity as to who receives collection service is very
desirable it is not practical to limit ICI locations to a single bag nor is it practical for the
County to continue to provide collection services to large generators of waste or to continue with
the current system of disparity between locations Therefore Council should also consider what
the option to further restrict garbage would do to address the issues identified in seasonal areas
and in the ICImultiresidential sectors in order to determine which option is preferred
Analysis ofVarious Programs Effectiveness In Addressing Issues Identified
Below is an analysis of the various options presented earlier in the report and their potentialimpact to the uniform collection issues outlined above
Program Type UG7
Option A status quo Does nothing to address issues Does nothing to address issues identified

Option B status quo Does nothing to address the ongoing 9

Conclusions
An analysis of the various pros and cons of each of the options presented is attached as Schedule
3 Staff recommends that Option D full user pay system provides the highest potential for
reduced waste generation increased utilization of diversion programs addresses many of the
concerns with seasonal and ICI units Additionally it is considered the most equitable optionfor all serviced units but implementation will require careful communication with respect to the
removal of the waste collection and disposal costs from the waste levy This will be problematicin municipalities which have not changed to the utility type cost per unit
Council could consider implementation of a full user pay system either at the commencement of
the new collection contract effective July 1st 2012 or at some point shortly after that in order to
limit the number of significant changes occurring simultaneously If option D is selected Council
could consider use of an identifiable bag rather than a tag for a full user pay program as this
would also address existing compliance issues resulting from utilization of over sized bags and
containers This would also assist in the future should Council wish to further consider
implementation of a clear bag system the use of an identifiable bag could simplify a potentialtransition to a combined full user payclear bag program should further enforcement be deemed
necessary at some point
Should Council determine that a full user pay system is the preferred method for further
restrictions on curbside garbage some limit on the number of bags permitted would be necessary
particularly for ICI and multiresidential locations It is not reasonable for collection vehicles to
collect large amounts of garbage at any particular location for a variety of reasons includinghealth and safety space limitations traffic flow and for roadside aesthetics Larger generators of
waste would find it more economically utilizing the services of a private contractor for front end
or bin collection services rather than purchasing tagsbags and this would ensure that Countydisposal capacities would not be adversely impacted In reviewing ICI including multifamilylocations with over 5 units locations reviewing data from the partial ICI curbside audit and
looking at the economies of front end bin costs versus purchasing bags in full user pay systemstaff has determined a reasonable limit would be 10 bags per location weekly Any locationICI multifamily or combination thereof which produces more than this should be directed to
seek private service
As staff are currently working to finalize the new collections RFP which should be let in March in
order to meet established timelines Council direction with respect to uniform collection services
and further restrictions on curbside garbage recommended in the Waste Management Strategywith the new collections contract are necessary
FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
As any further restrictions on curbside garbage are not contemplated to be implemented until the
commencement of the new waste collection contract there is no impact to the Solid Waste
Management Department 2011 operating budget as a result of this Item The potential future
financial implications of the various options to further restrict curbside garbage are outlined below

ITEM FOR CORPORATE SERVICES COMMITTEE
SECTION Solid Waste Management
ITEM NO CS 11027
MEETING DATE February 9 2011
SUBJECT 2010 Curbside Waste Collection Information
RECOMMENDATION
THAT Item CS 11027 providing an update with respect to curbside collections in 2010 be
received for information
RELATIONSHIP TO THE WASTE MANAGEMENT STRATEGY
The waste management strategy recommends that a number of key system performance indicators
should be monitored andor measured on a regular basis and that total tonnes collected for all
material streams be reported on an annual basis
The waste management strategy also recommends that the existing waste collection contracts be
extended to July 2012 and that a collections RFP be let for a County wide collection contract
which would increase the efficiency and cost effectiveness of collection services
BACKGROUND
1 Collection Contracts
One collection contract set to expire June 30 2010 was extended The extension allows for a
common end date in 2012 for all collection contracts recommended in the Waste Management
Strategy
2 Tonnages Collected
Below is a 20092010 tonnage comparison of curbside collection data as provided by the
collection service providers Note that this information portrays only the basic level of service
weekly garbage organics and recycling and excludes all optional collection materials
Material Type 2009 Tonnage 2010 Tonnage 2009 to 2010 Difference
Garbage 3808940 3839342 1
Recycling 2236667 2309088 3
Organics 1155262 1145976 1
Totals 7200869 7294406 1
Staff is pleased to report that the 2010 recycling tonnages increased by 3 Organic tonnages
remained virtually unchanged compared to 2009 This is not entirely unexpected as there is often
a drop in participation in organics programs after the first year as some residents initially
enthusiastic about the new program stop placing out their green bins regularly Garbage
tonnages remained virtually unchanged compared to 2009 even though there was a 2 increase in
February 9 2011 Corporate Services Committee CS 11027 page 2
serviced units over the previous year It is anticipated that the implementation of the LearningLiving Green program other promotion and education initiatives and further restrictions on
curbside garbage collection recommended for implementation during the new curbside collectioncontract will drive increased diversion and waste reduction
When the total 2010 tonnage collected at curbside is compared with 2005 prior to theimplementation of the 2 bag limit and the organics program we have seen a 34 reduction ingarbage collected while the total number of units receiving garbage collection increased by 14during this same period

Garbage Garbage Garbage Garbage Garba e Garba e
51395 51837 52580 48714 38089 38393First full year with one bag garbage limit and organics program
Curbside diversion rates for the basic level of service weekly garbage organics and recyclablescollection remained the same 4710 in 2009 compared to 4737 in 2010 The 2010 diversionrate is a significant increase over the 2005 diversion rate of 2837 for the basic level ofcollection service Staff notes that this diversion rate is not reflective of the Countys overalldiversion rate which is determined when the annual Waste Diversion Ontario datacall iscompleted and which includes curbside optional collection programs and facilities based garbageand diversion programs such as shingles drywall wood waste scrap metal electronics etc TheCountys overall diversion rate in 2009 was 571 we expect this to be one of the top municipalrates in Ontario when this data is published The overall diversion rate for 2010 has yet to becalculated
3 Garbage Tags
There are 140 garbage tag outlets located in the County In 2010 258470 tags were distributedwhich is a decrease of 4 from 2009 This indicates an average purchase of 20 tags perhousehold in 2010 compared with an average of 23 tags per household in 2009 This average iscalculated using the unit counts for all municipalities except for AdjalaTosorontio which did not
participate in the tag program
4 Medical Exemptions
The medical exemptions program was initiated in 2005 to provide residents who may produceadditional waste due to a medical condition some relief from the bag limit through provision of25 free garbage tags per year Residents must submit an application form authorized by theirphysician to be eligible for the exemption and can reapply annually for up to 5 years withoutrequiring an additional physician authorization In 2010 188 requests were received whichincreased from 144 requests received in 2009 Of the 188 medical exemption requests 32 were
from new users It is noted that a significant number of medical exemption requests are receivedfrom group homes rather than individual residents

Mayor and Council
It has been requested by the Chair of the Alliston Business Improvement Association
ABIA that council approve the circulation of a copy the licensing bylaw for
Methadone clinics to all municipalities in Ontario
In consideration that some business communities in other municipalities are experiencing
difficulties which appear to be related to similar clinics this would appear to be a
reasonable request

of the Town of New Tecumseth
on March 7 2011
The Accessibility Advisory Committee met at 700 pm on Thursday February 3 2011 in the
Victoria Room of the Town of New Tecumseth Administration Centre Alliston Ontario
A quorum of the members was achieved
The following items were dealt with
1 ELECTION OF CHAIR VICE CHAIR
The committee elected Geoffrey Ball to the position of Chair and Donna Jebb to the
position of Vice Chair
2 AUDIBLE PEDESTRIAN SIGNALS
The Committee discussed their previous recommendation to Council that audible
pedestrian signals be placed one in each of the three communities The recommendation
had been referred to the 2011 budget It was noted that the item has been placed below
the line in the 2011 budget deliberations
The Accessibility Advisory Committee recommends that
Council be advised of the Accessibility Advisory Committees concern about the Audible
Pedestrian Signals item being placed below the line in the 2011 budget and
That Council reconsiders the project for completion in 2011
3 TOTTENHAM FOUR CORNERS ACCESSIBLE PARKING SPOTS
The committee reviewed an email request to add an accessible parking spot at the South
West corner of Queen Mill Street in Tottenham and to eliminate one parking spot to
make room for trucks It was decided by the committee that this location is not a viable
location for an accessible parking spot The committee will review the need for additional
parking spots and preferred locations in Tottenham Beeton and Alliston It was also
suggested that this citizen request is not an accessibility issue but a traffic issue related to
a proposed truck bypass for Tottenham and will be referred to engineering
4 ACCESSIBILITY ISSUES FOR THE 2010 MUNICIPAL ELECTIONS
Report ADMIN201105 was distributed for review The committee recognized that there
was a shortage of accessible parking at the Beeton voting location This issue had also
been noted by the Clerks Department and will be addressed before the next election
5 BYLAW ENFORCEMENT OF PRIVATE ACCESSIBLE PARKING SPOTS
The committee discussed the feasibility of requiring that accessible parking spots
in private retail lots be enforced by authority of the Town to discourage people who do not
have permits from parking in accessible spots This issue is seen by the Committee as a
barrier to the disabled in our community and thus falls under this committees mandate It
is understood that a bylaw officer cannot patrol the grounds of a private business and that
the business must invite a bylaw officer onto the property It is also understood that the
Town cannot initiate this request

Feb 3 2011
The feeling is that the businesses are not aware that they can approach the Town to dothis enforcement as the hospital has done The Accessibility Advisory Committee iswilling with the Towns approval to meet with the BIAs to advise them of this possibility
The Accessibility Advisory Committee recommends that
Council direct staff to bring forward a report to research and advise of some optionsthat would address enforcement of accessible parking in private retail parking lots in theTown

That the Capital Budgets for the Town for the years 2012 2015 be received
OBJECTIVE
To provide Council with an updated version reflecting Council direction of the Draft 2011
Operating and Capital Budgets for the Town Water and Wastewater operations
BACKGROUND
The 2011 Budget process started in September 2010 when the Management Team was
advised of the 2011 Budget Guidelines Process and Timetable Guideline expectations for the
2011 Operating Budget were to reflect the minimum cost required to maintain the existing level
of service
Council Working Sessions occurred on January 6th January 18th January 31st 2011 and
February 8th 2011 The Public Input Session was held on January 12th in Alliston
In accordance with the Towns Public Notice Policy the Council of the Town of New Tecumseth
provided public notice on February 14th 2011 that they intend to adopt the 2011 Operating and
Capital Budgets for the Town Water and Wastewater operations at a special Council meeting to
be held on Monday March 7 2011
In recent years and again this year the Town has worked towards approving its Operating and
Capital budgets as close to the beginning of the calendar year as reasonably possible By
doing so we have realized a number of benefits such as receiving more competitive prices for
ReportFIN201106March 7 2011Page 2 of 5
capital projects that are tendered before the contractors become busy in the summerconstruction season
COMMENTS AND CONSIDERATIONS
The updated Draft of the 2011 Operating and Capital Budgets for the Town Water andWastewater operations is included as Attachment 3 for Councils consideration The packagealso includes as Attachment 41 items that have been discussed at the various workingsessions and the Council direction received regarding these items
FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS
The Draft Budgets before Council contain the following key financial highlights
TOWN BUDGET
The Municipal Tax levy amount is 19208207 which is a 595346328 increaseover last year after taking into consideration the impact of growth The previouslyapproved OPP contract which includes complement additions accounts for 174 ofthis increase leaving the increase for all other Town operations including Capital to be154
The taxation impact of the Capital projects proposed is 381150 however this amountis funded by various reserves and as a result there is no taxation levy impact resultingfrom Capital related projects The draft Town budget includes Capital Works to becompleted in excess of 263 million dollars however it should be noted that some ofthese projects are developer funded and subject to the development timing
There are no additional new staff complement proposed in the draft 2011 Town Budgets
Based on a net Municipal Tax Levy of 19208207 a residential home that had anassessed value of 283477 in 2011 which is the 2011 average value of a residentialhome in New Tecumseth would have an estimated increase of its taxes of 5787 or
approximately 199 over 2010 The majority of the increase is related to the phaseinincrease in assessment value
Finance staff note that the County of 5imcoe have not established their 2011 tax ratesand ratiosrelated policies for the various property classes This process is expected tobe enacted by April 30th Any changes to the 2011 tax ratios versus those that wereused in 2010 will have a direct impact on all Municipal tax rates and the exampleprovided would require recalculation

WATER AND WASTEWATER BUDGETS
The draft budgets are balanced budgets
Both the Water and Wastewater budgets include a provision to increase rates by
approximately 25 effective April 1 2011 The amendment to the Fees and Charges
Bylaw to reflect these changes is included as Attachment 2
The draft budgets include capital projects funded by water rates in the amount of3000
Other capital works are included in the draft budgets that are funded by other sources
such as development charge and gas tax reserves
There are no additions to the staff complement proposed within the draft Water and
Wastewater budgets
LONG TERM INDEBTEDNESS
Finance staff have updated the Annual Repayment Limit ARL incorporating projects in the
draft budget that are proposed to be debenture funded The updated ARL amount is
2435951 This is the yearly limit the Town would be allowed to incur for principal and interest
payments on debt related charges above and beyond the Towns current and proposedindebtedness
This limit would allow the Town to incur additional longterm debt for the following amounts and
term
20000000 for a 10 year period31500000 for a 20 year period38100000 for a 30 year periodor a combination of the above
The draft 2011 Budgets propose to debenture approximately 15 Million for the following
Capital projects
2011 Road Upgrade program 11 millionThe User rate portion of the Tottenham WaterWastewater Master Plan 430thousand This project was approved to be funded by debenture within the 2009
budget
Gnu 3
ReportFIN201106March 7 2011Page 4 of 5
The Town continues to be well within its updated ARL The Town after incorporating theprojects proposed to be debenture funded in the draft 2011 budgets will continue to havecapacity for future capital works that may require longterm indebtedness as their fundingsource
EXCLUDED EXPENSES
For 2011 and subsequent years in accordance with Ontario Regulation 28409 Budget MattersExpenses attachment 4 the Town is required to prepare a statement to be adopted by
resolution regarding expenses not included in the Budget For New Tecumseth the excludedexpenses are post employment benefit expenses and amortization depreciation of tangibleCapital assets The regulation requires Municipalities to estimate the change in the accumulatedsurplus by not including these expenses along with the impact on the future Tangible Capitalasset funding requirements of the Town
A Total accumulated Postemployment benefit liability for the Town as at December 312009 was1891436 The estimated net expenses for 2010 is approximately 21million with the 2011 estimate not available The current year change between 2009 and2010 was approximately 200000 Post employment benefits include such items as
accumulated vacation retirement gratuities WSIB claims net and benefit extensions to
employees after retirement
The net cost of WSIB claims to the Town along with confirmed retirement gratuities are
included within the Draft 2011 Budget However such items as accumulated vacationand certain other post retirement benefits are not While there would be an expenserecorded on the Town books to fully state the future liability the current budget processis accommodating the year to year change
B Amortization expense on Town tangible Capital assets in 2009 was 6230944Preliminary estimates for 2010 on 2011 are currently not available however it is
expected that the 2011 expense would at least be similar to the 2009 levelThere are no provisions within the 2011 Draft budget that accommodates the
replenishment of reserves to replace the Towns assets and infrastructure Capitalprojects that are being undertaken in 2011 are being funded by existing reserves and
long term indebtedness As indicated in an earlier budget report one of the municipalfiscal health indicators that the Province employs relates to the levels of reserves
maintained by Municipalities With the reduction in contributions to reserves that hasoccurred over the past number of years New Tecumseth continues to have low levels ofreserves The lack of reserves has a significant impact on the funding of future asset
replacement and will result in either projects being funded by long term indebtedness or
from the current year taxation levyThe overall impact on the Towns accumulated surplus would be approximately 62million dollars which is the current year estimate of the amortizationdepreciationexpense that has been excluded

DearSirMadame
Re 2011 Municipal Policing Costs Estimates Ontario Provincial Police
Please find attached the estimated OPP policing costs for your municipality for the 2011
calendar year in accordance with the contract between your municipality and the Ministry of
Community Safety and Correctional Services
The negotiated 2011 salaries have been used to complete this estimate for uniform and
civilian members Current benefit rates have been included in the annual estimate and will
be applied to the final year end reconciliation247 for uniform officers and 243for
civilian staff
We wish to advise you that the 20092011 collective agreements were predicated on the
ability of the OPPA torenegotiate 2011 salary and benefit rates The OPPA has initiated
action torenegotiate the 2011 salary and benefits for uniform and civilian members and
therefore the rates quoted in the 2011 estimates may be subject to change In the event that the
2011 rates are successfullyrenegotiated a notification ofthe rate changes will be sent to your
municipality The 2011 monthly billings will not be revised specifically to reflect any salary
rate changes resulting from therenegotiations The 2011 reconciliations will be based on
salary rates in effect for 2011
Please note that interest will be charged on overdue accounts and it is applied retroactively to
outstanding balances
To effectively reduce the variance between the estimates and yearend policing costs a
partial credit for Provincial Services Usage PSU has been deducted from the 2011 total
estimated policing costs thereby reducing monthly billings throughout the invoicing year
The PSU credit compensates municipalities for the deployment ofofficers to other areas in
response to investigations or other occurrences deemed to be provincial responsibilities
Municipalities are being credited for one half of their municipalitys average PSU
experience to a maximum of five percent of their 2011 estimate Adjustments for actual
PSU experience will be reflected in the yearend reconciliation2

Attention Mayor and Council
The chair of the Economic Development Advisory Committee EDAC Robert Glozier Iam requesting that the value of the Community Improvement Plan CIP be increasedfrom5000000 to 15000000The reasoning behind this request is borne out in the EDAC business plan and the
strategic plan both ofwhich call for promotion of the CIP program which allows grantsup to 5000000 per eligible property If this promotion is successful we could run out
of money very quickly thereby tossing cold water on the program which may be hard to
restart This program has proven successful in the past helping to improve the face ofour downtowns
I endorse this request

The purpose of this report is to investigate and report back to Council on truck turningmovements at the intersection of Mill Street and Queen Street in the Community of Tottenhamprimarily concerning the eastbound right truck turns from Mill Street to the southbound lanes ofQueen Street
BACKGROUND
At the Council meeting of January 24 2011 Ms Brenda Horan presented a deputation toCouncil concerning the truck turning movements at the intersection of Mill Street and QueenStreet in Tottenham and submitted a petition entitled Stop the Trucks The location of theintersection is illustrated in Attachment No 1 The petition is in response to accidents that haveoccurred at the intersection in recent years involving truck movements particularly the right turntruck movements at the southwest quadrant of Queen Street and Mill Street
As a result Council passed resolution 2011004 and provided Staff with the following direction
Moved by Councillor StoneSeconded by Councillor Haire
BE IT RESOLVED THAT the deputation of Brenda Horan be received
Report ENG201108March 7 2011 Page 2 of 7
AND FURTHER THAT the newspaper article of the New Tecumseth Times
regarding safety at the intersection of Mill and Queen Streets be received
AND FURTHER THAT the petition of concerned citizens entitled Stop the
Trucks be received
AND FURTHER THAT the matter be referred to staff to report back to the
Committee of the Whole meeting on March 7 2011 to provide options for safetyimprovements regarding the tuming of large trucks at the intersection of Mill and
Queen Streets in Tottenham
There is a past history with respect to the issues to truck traffic at the Queen and Mill Streets
intersection The ongoing conflicts have prompted staff to provide reports to Council in 2003 and
2004 These reports have been included as additional background to this report as
Attachments 2 and 3 respectively
COMMENTS AND CONSIDERATIONS
The existing intersection is very typical of many established downtown core intersections where
the existing buildings are built out to the property lines and having a zerosetback with no
daylight triangles at the corner property limit This existing conditions constrain the ability to
redesign the intersection to provide more adequate turning lane widths and larger turning curb
radii to effectively accommodate the larger transport truck of todays trucking industry without
acquiring additional right of way and removing existing buildings
In response to Councils request Staff retained the services of Ontario Traffic Inc to undertake
two 8hour traffic counts of the intersection to obtain current traffic volumes and turning
movements The two counts were conducted on February 15 and 17 2011 The results of the 8
hour traffic count confirmed that the average daily traffic along Queen St and Mill Street is
approximately 9500 and 2800 respectively and that approximately 280 trucks of various
sizes Class 6 or greater ie more than 3 axles utilize the intersection from all approaches
during the busiest 8 hours
The number of right turning trucks from the eastbound approach on Mill Street to the
southbound approach on Queen Street is approximately 2024 trucks during the 8 busiest
hours which represents approximately 60 of the total right turns of all vehicles during the
same8hour period 22 trucks 365 all right turn vehicles
Staff visited the intersection to observe truck traffic patterns and witnessed several trucks
negotiate the right turn movement The existing intersection stop bar on Queen Street for the
northbound traffic south approach has been previously adjusted back approximately 10m from
its standard location to allow truck encroachments into the opposing northbound lanes It was
evident that the ability to successfully complete the right turn movement was largely dependanton the skill of the driver While several transport trucks successfully completed the turn several
others did not and encroached onto the sidewalk by as much 10m It is noted that all transport
trucks attempting the right turn movement are required to encroach into the opposing
northbound lanes on Queen Street in order to successfully complete the southbound right turn
Report ENG201108March 7 2011Page 3 of 7
The right turn truck movements of the other 3 intersection quadrants did not appear to be as
much of a concern as the number of recorded right turning vehicles of those quadrants were
much less and appeared to have more room to complete the turn without impacting thesidewalks
Staff reviewed the County of Simcoe Master Transportation Study dated July 2008 thatidentifies a future bypass around Tottenham The County Road 10 Bypass would serve to bypass the regional traffic around the Tottenham downtown core which would effectively redirectthe majority of the large transport trucks from this intersection The proposed Bypass isidentified as a County shortterm priority 1 10 years Staff contacted Mr Jim Hunter CountyTransportation Construction Manager and he advised that to date no actions have been
initiated to move the project forward This Bypass will provide the ultimate solution to the truck
traffic concerns at this intersection and the County could be requested by Council to initiateactions to move this project forward
As an interim solution until the County of Simcoe constructs the Bypass Staff investigated four
4 alternatives that may offer various degrees of improvement to address the right turn truckmovement concern of the southwest quadrant A summary of each Alternative is as follows
Alternative No 1 Further Stop Bar Adjustments
As noted above the existing stop bar for the northbound traffic has been previously adjustedback from intersection approximately 1 Om from its typical location to permit truck encroachmentinto the opposing northbound lane The typical location of a stop bar is a minimum of 1Om backfrom the crosswalk lines which are located immediately adjacent to the sidewalk ramp at theintersection
Based on Staffs visual observations of the truck movements it was noted that this alternative
would involve further adjusting of the stop bar location by an additional 57m away from thecurrent 100m adjusted location being a total of 1517m from the intersection as illustrated inAttachment No 4 The additional 5 to 7 m is based on the observation that when a vehicle was
not parked at the northbound Queen Street stop bar the trucks would use the additional spaceto make the turn While this would provide additional pavement area in the northbound lanes toassist trucks in successfully completing the right turn it does not directly prevent trucks from
encroaching onto the sidewalk when a driver miscalculates the manoeuvre and shortcuts theturn Further the additional offset distance of the stop bar from the intersection would create an
abnormally large gap between the intersection and a stopped vehicle whereby negativelyimpacting the operations of the signalized intersection and potentially creating driver confusionThis alternative would also require the elimination of one 1 street parking space on the eastside of Queen Street south of Mill Street to provide adequate space for the stop bar adjustmentand to reinstate the existing right turn queuing lane for vehicles Refer to Attachment No 4 for a
sketch depicting the conditions
Based on the above description Staff does not suggest that Alternative No1 be considered
Report ENG201108March 7 2011Page 4 of 7
Alternative No 2 Prohibit Right Turn Truck Movements
This alternative would involve prohibiting right turning truck movements at the intersection and
redirecting trucks to other Town owned roads Redirecting truck traffic to other roads is not a
preferred option because the current road matrixes of the alternate routes are not designed for
heavy trucks In addition the existing intersections are primarily unsignalized and lack the
proper large turning radii for Class 6 and greater commercial vehicles thus creating problems at
other locations Considering that the alternate routes are not engineered for heavy truck traffic
and that reconstructing those roads and intersections would be required this upgrade would be
similar to the works of the County Road 10 Bypass around the Tottenham downtown core
Further prohibiting right truck turns at this intersection would directly impact the local industryon Industrial Road
Prohibiting right turns at the intersection would result in trucks being redirected to other alternate
routes to access Highway No9 such as
From Industrial Road westerly on Mill Street 4th Line to the AdjalaTecumsethTownline southbound to an unsignalized intersection at Highway No9
From Industrial Road westerly on Mill Street 4th Line to the AdjalaTecumsethTownline southbound to 3d Line eastbound to County Road 10 southbound to a
signalized intersection Highway No9 It is noted that the road surface of the 3d Line
between the AdjalaTecumseth Townline and County Road 10 is only surface
treated and not designed to carry high truck volumes
Industrial Road easterly on Mill Street to Sideroad 10 or 15 southbound to an
unsignalized intersection at Highway No9
Prohibition of truck turning movements at this intersection could be considered following the
construction of the Tottenham Bypass by the County
Based on the above description Staff does not suggest that Alternative No2 be considered
Alternative No 3 Installation of Sidewalk Bollards aloe Southwest Quadrant
This alternative would involve the installation of two 2 bollards immediately behind the curb on
either side of the pedestrian ramp of the southwest intersection quadrant The bollards would
serve as a shortterm solution to address the safety concerns of sidewalk encroachment bytrucks The bollard detail for this location is illustrated in Attachment No 5
As illustrated in Attachment No 6 this simple design would provide physical protection of
pedestrians and property by effectively eliminating the ability of trucks to mount the curb and
encroach onto the sidewalk Essentially the visible bollards would act as deterrents and force
the truck trailers to remain outside of the pedestrian area on the sidewalk
It is anticipated that the bollards will be impacted by trucks on occasion and therefore it is
recommended that they be very durable and highly visible for the benefit of all motorists The
bottom of typical transport trailer box is 12m above the ground Therefore the proposed bollards
Report ENG201108
March 7 2011 Page 5 of 7
would be 15m in height above grade and would be anchored 15m into the ground total length30m The bollard would be a 200mm 0 steel caisson post filled with concrete It is proposedthe bollards be painted in bright yellow with reflective paint and markings to ensure highvisibilityThe bollard installation is in accordance with the Ministry of Transportation MTO Roadside
Safety Manual 1993 and conforms to the Clear Zone requirements The Clear Zone offsetdistance specified for this scenario is a minimum of 05 metres between the edge of pavementand face of bollard The bollard detail proposes to keep the bollard back075m from the edge of
pavement
As part of the installation and as an added measure of caution for pedestrians hatched yellowpaint lines would be placed to delineate an area between the two 2 bollards to the face of curbas illustrated in Attachment No6
This alternative effectively addresses the current conflicts at the southwest quadrant of the
subject intersection Staff estimates the cost would be approximately 9000 to install two 2200mmO standard bollards The source of funding for this work would need to be identified andcould be added to the draft 2011 Capital Budget
Based on the above description Staff supports Alternative No3
Alternative No 4 Extend Industrial Road North to Count Road 14 5th Line
Industrial Road currently runs north from Mill Street West for a length of approximately 530meters to a dead end This alternative would involve the extension of Industrial Road
approximately 850 meters north to County Road 14 5t Line
Currently the Town does not have a right of way corridor in a proposed alignment of theextension between the current north dead end of Industrial Road and County Road 14 and
therefore would prompt the need to acquire additional lands
The implementation of this alternative would trigger the need to undertake a Class C
Environmental Assessment EA due to the alignment and proximity of the Beeton Creek
running parallel to the proposed road extension
The road extension had been included in the 2008 Development Charge DC BackgroundStudy The Developers as part of their appeal of the 2008 Development Charge proposed toremove this project and provided a report by Mark Engineering dated June 2010 The reportsuccessfully demonstrated that this extension was not an eligible Development Charge projectand was subsequently removed from Development Charge By Law Prior to the removal fromthe ByLaw the costs to construct the extension were estimated at2365 million not includingland acquisitions Therefore the cost to undertake this alternative would need to be fundedentirely by the Town or the landowner upon development of the lands
This alternative does not effectively address the current intersection conflicts as a standalonesolution Without the prohibition of truck turning at the subject intersection trucks will be
permitted to continue to turn right as the preferred short route It would be recommended that
upon the Industrial Road extension project being moved forward that a prohibition for certain
Report ENG201108
March 7 2011Page 6 of 7
truck turning movements also be given consideration at the Queen and Mill Streets intersection
The turning prohibition would effectively redirect truck traffic to the signalized intersection at
County Road 14Nolan Road and County Road 10 and back out of the community
Based on the above description Staff does not suggest that Alternative No4 be considered
CONCLUSION
The ultimate longterm solution to address truckturning movements at the intersection of Queen
Street and Mill Street would be the implementation and construction of the County Road 10 By
pass around Tottenham However the County has not undertaken actions to initiate that project
Accordingly the County of Simcoe could be requested by Council to initiate actions to move this
project forward
As described above in Alternative No3 Staff has identified a short term solution to address the
safety concerns involving the encroachment of rightturn truck movements onto the sidewalk at
the intersection of Queen Street and Mill Street by the installation of two 2 bollards
immediately behind the curbline This alternative provides physical protection of pedestriansand property by effectively eliminating the ability of trucks to mount the curb and encroach onto
the sidewalk The installation of the bollards could be completed in a timely manner
Staff would continue to monitor the traffic operations of the intersection following the installation
of the bollards to identify if any new negative impacts have been introduced with the installations
and to further observe the traffic patterns at the intersection
FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS
The estimated cost to supply and install two 2 bollards as described in Alternative No3 would
be approximately9000 Currently there is no 2011 Capital or Maintenance budget item for
this work
The funds could be included in the 2011 Capital Budget with the funding source being the Tax
Rate Stabilization Reserve

REPORT TS 200401
Tottenham Truck Traffic Issues
OBJECTIVE
The purpose of this report is to provide Council with the results of the review of the truck traffic issues
in Tottenham and seek direction on whether the suggested truck prohibitions and improvementsshould be carried out
BACKGROUND
At the February 2d 2004 Council Meeting staff were directed to arrange a meeting with the Countyof Simcoe Councillor Aldridge Councillor Prothero Councillor Norcross Mayor MacEachern and
Deputy Mayor Milne to discuss concerns with respect to the volume of traffic travelling through
Beeton and Tottenham
Mayor MacEachern Councillor Aldridge Councillor Prothero Brendan Holly and Mark Aitken Jim
Hunter and Christian Meile from Simcoe County attended a meeting on March 1 st 2004
County staff had conducted a ByPass Study for the Community of Tottenham in the fall of 2003 and
presented the following items
AADT Traffic Summary for County roads in southeast Simcoe CountyTraffic Summary for the Tottenham area
Individual traffic volume counts
Individual turning movement counts
Based on the Study information County staff indicated that traffic volume does not warrant a by
pass The volume would need to be twice as much The volume of truck traffic passing throughTottenham represents 6 of the total vehicles Members of Council considered the volume of truck
traffic excessive and trucks turning at Mill and Queen Streets is a major problem In addition the
truck traffic can be expected to be much higher during the potato and sod harvesting seasons It
was suggested that trucks passing through Tottenham should be prohibited from doing so and trucksthat are destined for Tottenham businesses mainly Industrial Road should be prohibited from
making turns at Mill and Queen Alternative routes that are efficient would need to be identified It
was decided that County staff would conduct a traffic count that focused on the heavy truck traffic
volumes and destinations
A second meeting on April 1st 2004 to review the results of the heavy truck traffic study was
attended by Mayor MacEachern Deputy Mayor Milne Councillor Aldridge Councillor ProtheroBrendan Holly and Jim Hunter and Chris Dockerty from Simcoe County
Based on the survey the heavy truck traffic volume can be divided into two 2 main groups
a The majority of the heavy trucks plus or minus 70 pass right through Tottenham in a
northsouth direction
J xi N
Report TS 200401
August 16 2004 Page 2
b The remaining heavy truck traffic plus or minus 30 originates at the Industrial park on the
west side of Tottenham
The heavy trucks were identified as coming from the following trucking companies Gibson
Transport One World Logistics Nissin Clark Trucking and potato trucks It was concluded that a
prohibition of through truck traffic be considered and the trucks could be prohibited from making turns
at the intersection of Mill and Queen or at least prohibited from making right turns Alternative
routes for the trucks would need to be established The trucks hauling to Honda could use Highways
50 and 27 The truck companies outlined above would be notified of the Towns intentions and No
Through Truck Traffic signs could be posted at Highway 9 and the 14th Line The truck traffic
originating from or destined to Industrial Road would use the AdjalaTecumseth Townline or the 10th
Sideroad and the 4th Line Ideally all trucks from Industrial road would use the 4th Line west and
Townline however there are three 3 concerns
1 The 4th Line west of Tottenham is in very poor condition and would need to be upgraded at an
estimated cost of 4500002 The Townline is maintained by AdjalaTosorontio and may have to be upgraded to
accommodate heavy truck traffic during half load season
AdjalaTosorontio staff advised that the use of the Townline by trucks has been a contentious
issue for many years and they would not support the Townline being used as a truck bypassroute
3 There is a sight distance problem at the north leg of the intersection of the a Line and
Townline Slow turning trucks from westbound to southbound would be a problem Warning
signs for the southbound motorists and flashing lights would not solve the problem
An alternative would be to have trucks from Industrial road use the 4th Line east and VP Sideroad
south to Highway 9 This has the disadvantage that trucks would be directed along Mill Street East
that presently does not experience heavy truck traffic Some intersection improvement works would
be necessary at the 4th Line and 10th Sideroad however the cost would be minimal There is also a
sight distance concern at the intersection of Highway 9 and 10th Sideroad however it is believed that
this can be overcome with pavement markings that designate a centre truck turning lane on Highway9 MTO concurrence and approval would be required
A combination of the above two 2 alternatives could be considered Truck traffic destined for
Industrial Road could use the Townline and 0 Line east and 10th Sideroad This would overcome
the sight distance problem at the intersection of 4th tine and Townline and would also increase truck
traffic on Mill Street East to a lesser extent Extension of Industrial Road northerly to County Road
14 is identified in the Tottenham Secondary Plan The Development Charge Background Studyestimated the cost to be1021000 Ultimately when this road is constructed it will provide a route
for traffic from the north to access Industrial Road without going through the centre of Tottenham
On May 31 St 2004 a meeting was held with three 3 of the major trucking companies than contribute
to most of the north south through traffic These companies indicated a willingness to cooperate
with the Town by diverting truck traffic away from Tottenham where feasible However most of the
trucks in question are travelling between Schomberg and Alliston Further investigation showed that
some of the trucks from these companies travelling through Tottenham actually originated from the
west and the companies have advised that they have instructed their drivers to use Highway 50
ry
Report TS 200401
August 16 2004 Page 3
Letters were sent to the companies on Industrial Road indicating that the Town is looking at the
feasibility of implementing turning prohibitions at Queen and Mill Streets Based on the responsesthat we received the issues identified are
a There is a school crossing on Mill Street East
b The road grade and the railroad track on Mill Street need to be modified
c The intersection at 10th Sideroad and 4th Line needs to be improved
d The 4h Line needs to be monitored to ensure that it can withstand truck traffic during load
season
At a meeting on July 12 2004 attended by Deputy Mayor Milne Councillor Prothero and Brendan
Holly the above noted issues were discussed
The major trucking companies in the area have diverted long distance truck traffic to routes other
than Tottenham Road however the short haul trips from Schomberg to Alliston continue to use
Tottenham Road Signage could be installed requesting truckers to use alternative routes howevera bypass route in close proximity to Tottenham is not readily available Although from a traffic pointof view the volume of truck traffic can be accommodated within the road geometrics of Tottenham
Road the liveability of the street within the core of Tottenham is impacted significantly AccordinglyCouncillor Prothero recommended that Council be requested to pass a bylaw prohibiting throughtruck traffic on Queen Street in Tottenham The short haul truck traffic trips originating and destinedfor locations outside the Town could use Highway 27 and Highway 50 and the local truck traffic
associated with the agricultural industry would use rural roads outside the Tottenham core to access
the County and Provincial highways
The truck traffic generated by the companies on Industrial road in Tottenham would not be governedby the No Through Truck Traffic prohibition There is a concern with respect to the Industrial Road
truck traffic making right turns at the intersection of Mill Street and Queen Street A turn prohibitionwould detour trucks along Mill Street to the east and southbound trips could use Sideroad 10 to
access Highway 9 however northbound trips would be diverted through Beeton because the 6th and
7th Lines are not considered desirable detour routes for the trucks Diverting trucks through Beeton is
not an acceptable solution The main concern with the trucks turning right is the conflict with
pedestrians especially school children Councillor Prothero has requested that a truck rightturnprohibition be implemented only during the hours when the children are going back and forth to
school
Subsequent to the meeting staff contacted the School Board and they advised that TottenhamPublic School classes start at 855 am and end at 330 pm Lunch is from 1155 am to 1255 pmIt is unlikely that school children would be crossing the intersection during the lunch period becauseof its distance from the school A truck turning prohibition could be implemented between 800 am
900 am and 330 pm 500 pm The companies would have to schedule their truck trips toaccount for this turning prohibition
In addition to the abovenoted truck traffic prohibitions pedestrian safety bars could be installed
along the curb line of the northwest and southwest corners of the Mill Street and Queen Streetintersection This would help prevent school children from stepping onto the roadway except at the
proper crossing location at the intersection where warning signs would be installed to caution
pedestrians about the truck traffic
Report TS 200401
August 16 2004 Page 4
At the July 26 2004 Council meeting staff was directed to
provide a report to the August 16 2004 Committee of the Whole meeting with respect to
truck traffic in downtown Tottenham
Accordingly this report has been prepared and staff is seeking direction from Council with respect to
Prohibiting truck traffic on Queen Street in Tottenham
Prohibiting right turns at the intersection of Queen Street and Mill Street between 800 am
900 am and 330 pm 500 pm
Installing pedestrian safety bars at the northwest and southwest comers of Mill Street and
Queen Street
The suggested prohibitions will impact how the business on Industrial road and trucking companiesconduct business
Residents and business owners on Mill Street East and the residential subdivisions off Mill Street will
be concerned about truck traffic that they currently dont experience If the prohibitions are
implemented we can expect complaints from residents especially with respect to the school crossing
on Mill Street East
FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS
The estimated cost of installing truck prohibition signage including large information signs at Highway
9 and 14h Line is 500000 The estimated cost to install pedestrian safety bars at the northwest and
southwest corners of Mill Street and Queen Street is 800000
This project is not included in the approved 2004 Capital Budget Accordingly if Council wishes to
proceed with the project in 2004 a funding source would have to be identified such as the Tottenham
Core Parking Capital Project ENG112004 a copy of the Capital Project detail sheet is included as

SUBJECT Tottenham Traffic Issues
OBJECTIVE
To update Council on the status of traffic issues in Tottenham raised by the Tottenham
Public Safety Committee
BACKGROUND
Council received correspondence from the Tottenham Public School Safety Committee
who expressed concerns with traffic issues in Tottenham and this report is being
brought forward as to where staff are with the issues
COMMENTS AND CONSIDERATIONS
Staff has met with the County Engineer to discuss the Tottenham traffic issues
specifically with Tottenham Road improvements Traffic reports and traffic counts and
the study of a Tottenham bypass
The County Engineer indicated that he would review their records and give the Town
staff copies of traffic reports they have and the traffic counts that were taken To date
staff has not received the information As there have been numerous staff changes at
the County staff will continue to try to obtain this information
The County Engineer also stated that an Environmental Study would need to be
undertaken if a bypass is to be looked at for the community of Tottenham If Council
wishes to pursue this then Council would need to pass amotion requesting the Countyto commence a bypass study of Tottenham Staff are in agreement with the direction
the County Engineer gave since the Tottenham Road is a County jurisdiction Other
traffic issues for the Tottenham Road have been raised by other committees and the
bypass study should address these such as the truck turning at the Mill Street Queen
Street intersection
Staff also met with the OPP and the School Board representatives and the Tottenham
Public School Safety Committee to deal with safety concerns around the school The
meeting was very constructive on how The Town OPP and school can try to create a
safer environment for school children in the area of the school The safety concerns for
the school were around the following times 830 930 am 300 400 pm The
Safety Committee will work with the parents as to children pickup of their children and
also work with the bussing company on how the busses will pick up the children

factors in assessing the impact on the financial statements our audit opinion and the matters reported

the financial statements are free of material misstatement caused by error or by fraud Our audit

REPORT CAO201105
SOLAR PROJECTS ON MUNICIPAL LAND BUILDINGS
RECOMMENDATION
That Report CAO201105be received
And that staff be authorized to issue an RFP for the lease of 3 municipal building roofs for the
purpose of rooftop solar projects
OBJECTIVE
The purpose of this report is to bring forward a green energy initiative for Council consideration
and direction
BACKGROUND
The Green Energy and Green Economy Act 2009 passed into law on May 14 2009 authorizes
a feedin tariff or FIT Program This program is implemented by the Ontario Power Authority and
provides energy developers with a long term power purchase agreements at rates or tariffsthat support investment in green technologies including biomass biogas landfill gas onshore
wind solar photovoltaic PV and waterpower
The Province indicated at the time of the establishment of the program that the development of
renewable energy was being encouraged to help Ontario phase out coalfired electricitygeneration boost economic activity and the development of renewable energy technologies and
create new green industries and jobs
A number of new companies have been formed to take advantage of the opportunitiesrespecting renewable energy and the FIT program The Deputy Mayor has been approached byone of the companies and has forwarded the information on to staff In addition staff havereceived information from a number of other companies offering this program includingPowerStream AMO LAS Services etc encouraging the Town to review the potentialdevelopment of solar PV on municipal landsbuildings and the Environmental Issues Task
Force in 2010 identified the implementation of solar panels as a potential project to investigatefor the current term
COMMENTS AND CONSIDERATION
There are several options open to the municipality to pursue a renewable energy project The
Town could pursue a joint equity ownership for the project between interested parties and the
municipality could undertake a project as a sole owner or could enter into a lease
arrangement for rooftops of municipal buildings with a private company for the installation of
the solar panels
In an option where the Town participates in a renewable energy project directly it will be
necessary to contribute depending on the nature of the Towns role all or some of the capitalcosts involved in the project which would include engineering costs to determine thestructural integrity of the installation on the roof the panels themselves and other related costs
Report CAO201105March 7 2011 Page 2 of 2
associated with the installation A number of building owners have elected to enter into simplelease arrangements whereby the building owner receives rental payments for the rooftop and
assumes no risks associated with the project and no obligations to invest any capital
The term of the leases are 20 years to match the power purchase agreements the corporationhas with the Province and rental payments to the building owners are often structured as
either a onetime upfront payment or annual payments over the 20year term An example of
possible rental rates to assist Council in the consideration of this matter is included in the
Confidential Attachment 1 It should be noted that it is very important that this document
remain confidential at this time to ensure that the identified corporation is not adversely
impacted should they participate in a subsequent bidding process
In consultation with the Manager of Parks Recreation and Culture who is responsible for Town
facilities it is recommended that the Town as an initial project consider leasing 3 Town
municipal rooftops in a strict landlord tenant relationship and not engage directly in renewable
energy projects and issue a Request for Proposals to consider the opportunities that may
exist Further opportunities may be explored in addition to the initial 3 sites as the program is
further explored
In reviewing the Town buildings and their suitability for the installation of solar panels havingregard for size location and condition staff recommend that the following buildings be
considered as an initial project
Joint Operations Building 6558 8 Line Beeton
Outdoor ice rink 139 Queen Street Tottenham
New Tecumseth Recreation Centre 7300 Industrial Parkway
Should Council wish to pursue this initiative staff would recommend that an RFP be issued
that would require interested parties to submit a proposal that would require the proponent to
be responsible for all related costs including but not limited to the costs of all engineering work
FIT program application fees and costs supply and installation and removal of solar
panelsrequired equipment connection to the distribution grid and that would provide a highrental rate to the Town
Further the proponent would be required to ensure that they would be responsible for all costs
related to any damage that may occur to the roof and that all appropriate safeguards be taken
in the process Appropriate opportunities will also be required to be provided to enable the
Town to undertake necessary maintenance work at no cost to the Town for the temporary
removal or relocation of the panels Further the RFP would require that such matters
aesthetics and other potential impacts be addressed
Report CAO201105March 7 2011Page 3 of 3
FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS
In the event that an RFP is issued and a successful proponent selected the Town would
receive revenue from the rent of Town roofs The amount would depend on the rate in the
successful proposal awarded by the Town

attached as Attachment 1 which provides additional background information on the plannedprojects for this property
COMMENTS AND CONSIDERATIONS
In order to accommodate the construction of the driveway parking lot and other future planneddevelopments it has become necessary to reduce the number of arable acres currently leasedto the tenant In accordance with the lease agreement the annual lease payment is due on the31St day of October of each year of the agreement and in this regard staff contacted Mr
Whiteside and advised him of the pending reduction of farmable acreage at the property
Report ADMIN201118
March 7 2011 Page 2 of 2
While construction was underway in late 2010 it was determined that the lease payment would
be calculated on a total of 91 acres for 2010 a reduction of 1 acre and that once site plandocumentation was received by the Town that an amendment to the original agreement would
be prepared setting out the total acreage available to the tenant for farming purposes to the end

L1N COMMENT A CONSIDERATIONSKQROAC
Council has approved a Master Plan for the development of the Banting Homestead HeritagePark and established a Banting Heritage Park Coordinating Committee to provide advice to
Council on the implementation of the Plan
At the Council Meeting of July 12 2010 upon the recommendation of the Committee Council
approved of the location of the parking lot and driveway Construction is planned for the fall of
2010
The SFBLF retained an architectural firm to undertake the design die renovationrestoration
of the Farm House and an adjacent heritage room Schematics of the future Diabetes Outreach
Centre have also been prepared to demonstrate to future donors the speck plans and program
being implemented by the SFBLF It will be necessary for the SFBLF to prepare a detailed site
plan for the development of these buildings to address all of the usual matters including
servicing lighting fire protection etc
As a first phase the SFBLF will proceed with the restoration renovation of the Farm House and
adjacent Heritage Room To enable this work to proceed expeditiously some details for the site
plan must be undertaken prior to the availability of a building permit
Council had approved 150000 in the 2010 Capital Budget for work on a number of projects to
advance the implementation of the Master Plan One of those projects listed was the restoration
of the Octagonal Drive Shed which has been beautifully completed through a joint project of the
Alliston Lions Alliston Rotary The restoration of the Farm House has been identified as a
priority for the Town and the SFBLF have assumed the responsibility to raise the funds and to
undertake this work
Accordingly it is recommended that the capital budget funds not required to complete the
driveway and parking lot be redirected to assist with the necessary support work to facilitate the
issuance of a building permit to undertake the work on the Farm House Funds not required for
that purpose may be used for other Banting Homestead related projects to ensure that the
overall implementation of the Master Plan moves forward in a coordinated and efficient manner
Recognizing that the Town owns the BantingRomestead lands it is also important to assure
donors to the SFBLF programs that the Town as Owner consents to the construction of the
buildings and the operation of the programs on the Homestead lands Accordingly a resolution
has been prepared that the SFBLF would be able to share with potential donors or file with grant
applications to address any concerns regarding the matter of the property owners consent
It will be important as this project moves forward to have the rights and responsibilities relatingto the SFBLF programs clearly established in the form of an agreement with the Town Staff
have enjoyed a very positive and productive working relationship with the SFBLF and continue
to work towards the successful implementation of the programs as part of the Master Plan As
part of that work staff will wont with the SFBLF on an agreement to bring hack to a future
meeting that will address all required and appropriate matters as the development proceeds

FARM WORKING DOGS AMENDMENT TO CANINE CONTROL BYLAW2008110
RECOMMENDATION
That Report ADMIN201121be received
And that Council approve the amendment to Canine Control Bylaw 2008110 to include a
definition for Farm Working Dogs and to exempt such dogs from licence fees
OBJECTIVE
The purpose of this report is to seek Council approval for an amendment to the Canine Control
Bylaw2008110 to include a definition for Farm Working Dogs and to exempt such dogs from
annual licence fees
BACKGROUND
In July 2008 Council approved an amendment to the Canine Control Bylaw that provided for a
definition for Livestock Guardian Dogs and added this type of dog to a list of assistance service
and working type dogs for which licence fees are not required
In 2010 it was brought to the attention of the Canine Appeal Committee that there are a number
of working farms in New Tecumseth that use dogs to assist in the herding andor protection of
livestock that do not meet the definition of Livestock Guardian Dogs It is apparent that these
Farm Working Dogs play a vital role for livestock farmers in the management and protection of
their herds or flocks The Committee requested staff to review the Bylaw and bring forward a
proposed amendment that would provide the same privileges for Farm Working Dogs as forLivestock Guardian Dogs and other working dogs
COMMENTS AND CONSIDERATIONS
The Canine Control Bylaw currently provides for the exemption from licence fees for a numberof service dogs therapy dogs hunting dogs and working type dogs It is recommended that an
amendment to the Bylaw provide for a definition for Farm Working Dogs under Section 11 as
follows
Farm Working Dog means a dog other than a Livestock Guardian Dog that is trained to and
actively assists its owners with the herding andor protection of livestock and where the
owners can demonstrate that they are active livestock producersfarmers
In order to exempt these dogs from licence fees Section 39 should be deleted in its entiretyand be replaced by the following
391 Assistance dogsservice dogs including therapy dogs police working dogs livestock
guardian dogs farm working dogs and dogs in the custody of the Alliston and District

BEETONTOTTENHAM BIA OFFICE SPACE
RECOMMENDATION
That Report ADMIN201122 be received
And that Council approve the use of space at the old Tottenham Library for the purposes of an
office for the BTBIA Coordinator along with specific storage space
And that the meeting room space continue to be provided to the BTBIA for their monthly
meetings at no charge in both Beeton and Tottenham
OBJECTIVE
The purpose of this report is to seek Council approval for the use of space at the Old Tottenham
Library for the purpose of an office for the BTBIA
BACKGROUND
Since January 2008 the BIA Coordinator role has been provided to the Alliston BIA and the
BeetonTottenham BIA by one individual working out of the Economic Development Office In
2009 due to the severe space shortage in the Administration Centre the position moved to the
Monument Building once the renovations were completed and work for both BIAs was carried
out from this location Recently as a result of an increasing workload the Alliston BIA hired a
dedicated staff person who works from the one workstation available at the Monument Building
resulting in a need for space for the Coordinator providing assistance to the BTBIA
COMMENTS AND CONSIDERATIONS
The BTBIA Coordinator is currently working in substandard space located in the Administration
Department The new BTBIA has requested that space be provided in a location in downtown
Beeton or Tottenham so that the Coordinator will have a presence in the two downtowns and so
that the Coordinator will be more conveniently located for the business membership
As Council is aware the space currently occupied by the Alliston BIA in the Monument is leased
from the Town for a nominal sum This building was donated to the Town by the developer of
the Shoppers Drug Mark property after the Town designated the building as being of historic
significance The ABIA agreed that the Towns13 share of the renovation grant 137400could be taken from the Downtown Revitalization Reserve using the funds secured from various
developers for downtown improvement purposes Following the renovations the ABIA entered
into a 20year lease agreement with the Town for the use of the building for which they pay all
maintenance costs In turn the ABIA leases 23 of the space to the Alliston S District Chamber
of Commerce for market rent plus 23 of the utility costs to allow them to recover the funds
originally contributed for the renovations The ABTA has access to one workstation and use of
the boardroom and the balance of space is occupied by the Alliston Chamber
Report ADMIN201121March 7 2011 Page 2 of 2
As a similar situation is not available for the BTBIA the group is seeking space in a Town
owned building or facility that can be provided to them at no charge In investigating the
available space it appears that the only suitable location would be in the old Tottenham LibraryA small office at the front of the building has been provided to the OPP for the ESO but there is
ample space to create an office for the BTBIA when still retaining the meeting space used bythe community at the rear of the building No similar space is available in Beeton The Chair of
the BTBIA is supportive the Tottenham Library location and has indicated that funds can be
provided for the required minimal renovations The Manager of Parks Recreation and Culture
has advised that the work can be carried out for1000
The BTBIA is anxious that the office be available as soon as possible and Councils approval is
sought to permit the renovations to be undertaken by Town staff and for the office space to be
used by the BTBIA The BTBIA will also use the meeting room space on occasion for its
monthly meetings however it is their intention to rotate the meetings between Beeton and
Tottenham
FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS
The BTBIA will reimburse the Town for the cost of the renovations up to1000

REPORT HR2011 01
WSIB SCHEDULE CONSIDERATIONS
RECOMMENDATION
That ReportHR201101 from the Manager of Human Resources be received and
That Council approve a recommendation from staff to maintain the Town of New Tecumseth
Schedule 2 status with the Workplace Safety and Insurance Board WSIB
OBJECTIVE
To provide information and a recommendation for Council regarding the WSI Act Schedule 1
and Schedule 2 options
BACKGROUND
On May 3 2010 Council approved the following recommendation in Report HR 201001
Presumptive Legislation for Firefighters WSI Act
That staff review whether there is an advantage for the municipality to elect to move to
WSIB Schedule 1 from Schedule 2 and bring a report forward to Council at a future
meeting
The Corporation of the Town of New Tecumseth is currently listed as a Schedule 2 employerunder the WSI Act Schedule 2 employers include firms funded by public funds from the
federal provincial and or municipal governments firms legislated by the province but self
funded and a number of other firms who are privately owned but involved in federally regulatedindustries such as telephone airline shipping and railway
Under the Workplace Safety and Insurance Act Schedule 2 employers are recognized 0
separate and distinct from all other employers who fall under Schedule 1 The fundamental
distinction is this while Schedule 1 employers operate under the collective liability insurance
principle Schedule 2 employers do not They are individually responsible for the full cost of the
accident claims filed by their workers The WSIB maintains full authority over the Schedule 2
claims entitlement process and bills actual benefit costs plus an annual administration fee
currently 2176 to Schedule 2 employers
Some Schedule 2 employers have exercised the option of switching to Schedule land as a
result the WSIB has municipalities school boards and other Schedule 2 employers splitbetween the two Schedules Larger employers are increasingly choosing to remain in Schedule2 or to transfer back to it
As a Schedule 2 Employer the Town carries two types of protective insurance One is referred
to as Excess Indemnity Insurance This insurance has had varying deductible amounts which
are determined by the insurer Currently the deductible is 500000 The other insurance is
ReportHR201101March 7 2011 Page 2 of 4
referred to as Occupational Accident Insurance which will cover the deductible of the Excess
Indemnity Insurance if the claim fits the requirements of the insurance Occupational illnessesare not covered by the Occupational Accident Insurance
In 1998 the Town of New Tecumseth moved from Schedule 1 to Schedule 2 as it was
determined at that time that the switch from paying insurance premiums to paying the actual
accident costs would generate a considerable savings
On May 3 2007 the Workplace Safety and Insurance Act was changed to provide fulltime
municipal fire service employees compensation for certain types of cancer or heart damagesuffered within 24 hours of responding to an emergency that is presumed to be the result of his
or her employment in the municipal fire service In early 2010 the government then added a
regulation that extended this compensation to all firefighters including part time and volunteerand fire investigators More than 150 municipalities submitted resolutions endorsing theextension of the legislations presumptive provisions to volunteer and parttime firefighters
The implementation of Presumptive Legislation for Full Time Part Time and Volunteer Fire
Fighters causing the potential for large WSIB claims for municipal employers triggered a
review of our claims costs and an investigation into the feasibility of switching The Town of New
Tecumseth back to Schedule 1
COMMENTS AND CONSIDERATIONS
Following is a chart compiled by a representative from the Towns Excess Indemnity Insurance
Company Jardine Lloyd Thompson Canada Inc which analyses the costs to New Tecumseth
since it moved into Schedule 2 The analysis compares actual Schedule 2 costs incurred with
costs that would have been incurred if the Town had remained in Schedule 1
It should be noted that since the implementation of the Presumptive Legislation the Schedule 1
premiums for Rate Group 845 which is the rate group that municipalities fall into have
increased by 156 over 2010 and it is rumoured that a similar increase is planned for 2011
Since the comparison in the chart ends at 2010 these increases are not reflected
ReportHR201101
March 7 2011 Page 3 of 4
It is more valid to look at claim costs on an incurred basis The liability for each claim arises in the year in
which the accident occurs notwithstanding that frequently the costs of that claim are paid over two years or more This
table is a meaningful comparison of the real cost of claims with Schedule 1 premiums

The analysis indicates that even though the Town has incurred two large cost occupationalillnesses which were covered by the Excess Indemnity insurance but not covered by the
Occupational Accident insurance the costs are still lower than if the Town had been in the
Schedule 1 formula and paying premiums
Consequently staff respectfully recommend that the Town at this time remain in Schedule 2
While there was a possibility that some larger claims may have come forward due to the
retroactivity of the Presumptive Legislation this has to date not been the case If Council
choose to have the Town remain in Schedule 2 staff will monitor the costs annually and if due
to larger claims the savings are no longer being realized will come forward with a further reportfor Council consideration

REPORT ENG201110
STREET NAME REVISION
WEST ALLISTON II RIZZARDO EAST DEVELOPMENT
RECOMMENDATION
That Council receive Engineering Report 201110 and
That the following street name be assigned for use within the West Alliston II Rizzardo EastDevelopment Plan of Subdivision NTT06001
PREVIOUSLY APPROVED NAME PROPOSED NAME
Falkner Road Holt Drive
OBJECTIVE
The purpose of this report is to seek approval from Council for the revising of a previouslyapproved street name within the West Alliston II Rizzardo East Development Plan of
Subdivision NTT06001 located in the Community of Alliston
BACKGROUND
The Rizzardo Bros Holdings Inc Plan of Subdivision NTT06001 is located northwest of the
intersection of King Street and Industrial Parkway in the Community of Alliston as illustrated on
Attachment No 1
In 2000 Council approved by Resolution 200062 six 6 street names for the roads within the
West Alliston II Draft Plan of Subdivision One 1 of the six 6 approved street names was
Falkner Road This street is a continuation of the existing Falkner Road within the SchickedanzSubdivision to the east of King Street
Staff while attempting to assign the civic addresses to the first phase of the West Alliston II
development discovered that when Falkner Road was originally constructed to the east of KingStreet within the Schickedanz subdivision and the municipal numbering assigned the
numbering was started at the intersection with King Street and ascended easterly towards the
intersection with Anderson Road As a result the addressing of the lots located on the new
section of Falkner Road west of King Street within the Rizzardo subdivision cannot continue in
a numerical order
COMMENTS AND CONSIDERATIONS
As previously noted in order to assign the civic numbering within the Rizzardo subdivision the
numbering will have to begin at the intersection with King Street and ascend westerly This
Report ENG201110
March 7 2011 Page 2 of 2
creates the problem that both roads are currently named Falkner Road This scenario would
potentially create two properties within the municipality with the same legal address
Staff investigated options of renaming Falkner Road east and west of King Street by modifyingwith a prefix and or a suffix however these options would still create issues and could cause
confusion with Emergency Services
Falkner Road within the Schickedanz subdivision east of King Street currently has 25 existingresidents established on this street with 24 additional building lots to be constructed all of
which have been assigned civic addresses by the Town in 2005 Staff does not recommend
changing theexisting street name as this would then require those existing residents to changethe legal description of any documents relating to their municipal address
For the above reasons Staff recommends renaming Falkner Road within the West Alliston II
Development with the next available Veteran name on the Alliston Veterans Names for Streets
list in keeping with the TownsStreet Naming policy as outlined in Resolution No 2010132
The next name to be utilized is Holt This name does not conflict with any names currently in
use Therefore Staff is recommending that the use of Holt Drive be brought forward at this
time to replace the current Falkner Road approved by Resolution 200062
The Developer has been notified and is in support of the street name revision Further the
developer agrees to accept all costs associated with the change including theresubmission of
registered M Plans R Plans AsBuilt and all associated legal documents necessary to
commit to remedying the Towns concerns

PARSONS ROAD WATER RESERVOIR EXPANSION AND PUMP UPGRADES
ENGINEERING FEES UPDATE
RECOMMENDATION
That Council receive Report ENG201111
That Council approve engineering fees in the amount of1730000 for services by RV Anderson and
Associates Ltd to undertake a shortlisting of qualified general contractors in advance of the tender
call for the Parsons Road Water Reservoir Expansion and Pump Upgrades as part of the 2011
Capital Budget process
That Council approve engineering fees in the amount of2470000 for services by RV Anderson and
Associates Ltd to undertake the Permit To Take Water Application process including hydrageologicalinvestigations required for dewatering operations during construction of the Parsons Road Water
Reservoir Expansion and Pump Upgrades as part of the 2011 Capital Budget process
OBJECTIVE
The purpose of this report is to present Council an update to the engineering fees for services by RV
Anderson and Associates Ltd for increases in the scope of work for the project and to approve the
additional fees required to complete the works as required for the Parsons Road Water ReservoirExpansion and Pump Upgrades as detailed in correspondence from RV Anderson and Associates Ltddated February 28 2011 Attachment 1
BACKGROUND
The original objectives for the Parsons Road Water Reservoir Expansion and Pump Upgrades were
first identified in the TownsWater Distribution and Storage Master Plan completed in 2007 which
provided a broad highlevel understanding of the potable water requirements to support the Towns
future growth to the year 2031 The two main objectives to be achieved through this project were to
secure the required water pumping capacities and storage requirements to meet the Towns growth to
2021
In March of 2009 Council awarded RV Anderson and Associates Ltd RVA the detailed design and
contract administration for the reservoir expansion and pump upgrades as detailed in report ENG
200911 where the project objectives were refined during the preliminary design based on theinformation available on the site Subsequently RVA provided the Town with a more comprehensiveunderstanding of works necessary to meet the project objectives
In March of 2010 Council passed Resolution 2010040 to receive and accept the Preliminary DesignReport PDR dated February 1 2010 as detailed in report ENG201008 with the followingrecommendations
Report ENG201111MARCH 7 201Page 2 of 6
That Council receive the Preliminary Design Report dated February 1 2410 for the
Parsons Road Water Reservoir Expansion as prepared by RV Anderson and Associates
Ltd
That Staff is directed to have R V Anderson proceed with the detail design of the
Development Charge works including the required additional pumping capacity works
That the Parsons Road Water Reservoir Expansion And Pump Upgrades as detailed in
the Preliminary Design Report be included in the 2011 Capital Budget process for
consideration
The PDR further refined the required works required to complete the reservoir expansion and pump
upgrades including the need for additional engineering services in the amount of 157800 for final
design tendering and contract administration The additional scope of works included in the PDR
consisted of increase in pump capacities sizes requiring structural modifications to the facility new
hatches in the roof electrical modifications and SCADA upgrades increase in standby generatorpower requirements necessitating the replacement of the existing generators and the addition of a
new washroom to meet Ministry of Environment guidelines The PDR further identified that additional
contract administration services would be further evaluated at a later date once the comprehensivefinal design had been completed
COMMENTS AND CONSIDERATIONS
RVA has completed the comprehensive detail design for the Parsons Road Water Reservoir
Expansion and Pump Upgrades and has identified additional works required to complete the projectupgrades and meet the project objectives
Subsequent to the PDR the detail design revealed that it would be necessary to review the existingwater distribution connections and to prepare a contingency plan to address a secured water supplyfor the Town and Honda during construction RVA provided a quotation in the amount of 14100 for
additional services Staff approved the additional fees from the approved project contingency funds of
24586
It was further identified by Powerstream that the increased power demands of the proposed pumps
would require an independent new transformer and upgraded power supply to the facility RVA
provided a quotation in the amount of 10800 for additional services Staff further approved the
additional fees from the approved project contingency funds
RVA has suggested to the Town that for a project of this magnitude and complexity it is
advantageous to solicit bids from experienced and qualified contractors in advance of the tender call
It is imperative that water distribution flow be maintained to both the Town and Honda during the
construction of the facility Therefore the selection of a competent and experienced contactor is
essential to the successful completion of the project and avoiding water disruptions
As such RVA has recommended that the Town consider a shortlisting process that would prequalifygeneral contractors The advantages are two fold it would help to avoid any potential issues that may

secondly can provide a better opportunity for equally experienced qualified contractors to providecompetitive bids while helping to increase the quality of the finished product RVA has submitted a
quotation for the services required to undertake the shortlisting process in the amount of 17300 as
detailed in their correspondence dated February 28 2011 Accordingly it is recommended that a
short listing process be followed
It has also been determined by RVA that based on the findings of the soil investigations completed byAlston Associates it will be necessary to undertake a dewatering program during the construction ofthe new concrete reservoir It is anticipated that the water taking will be in excess of 50000 Uday formore than 30days and therefore it will be necessary to obtain a Category 3 Permit To Take Water
PTTW which requires the preparation of a Hydrogeological Study to determine the impact of the
proposed dewatering
The PTTW application process can take as long as 812 weeks to receive approvals from the Ministryof Environment The PTTW can be left for the Contractor to obtain as part of the construction
process however this often results in delays in the construction schedule and provides the potentialfor corresponding claims for additional costs for winter work and dewatering activities Further if it is
completed in advance of the tender call then the Town should stand to receive better pricing from thebidders as the required hydrogeological information will be included within the contract and thisunknown element is removed
Therefore it is recommended that the PTTW application and associated hydrogeologicalinvestigations be completed by RVA as part of their design services and preparation of the contractdocument RVA has submitted a quotation for the services required to undertake the PTTW
Application process in the amount of 24700 as also detailed in their correspondence of February28 2011
FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS
Based on the finalized detail design which incorporates the additional scopes of work RVA hasidentified that the revised estimated construction cost for the Parsons Road Water Reservoir
Expansion and Pump Upgrades has been estimated at666400000
The draft 2011 Capital Budget includes two project sheets for this project

RVA has acknowledged that the fees for Contact Administration are higher than as described in the
Preliminary Design Report and identify the increases are attributable to the following items
Construction duration The original Request for Proposal had estimated that the construction
would begin in 2010 and last for 36 weeks The construction is now scheduled to begin in
2011 and it is estimated that it will take 15 months 64 weeks to complete
Cost of living increase Due to the additional scope of works the final engineering designwork has been extended for the project by more than one year While the original Request for
Proposal required that RVA carry their 2009 fees until the end of December 2010 RVA has
now adjusted their 2011 billing rates and they have been applied to estimate the engineeringfees
Additional items have been added to the scope of work since the Preliminary Design Reportwas issued including a redesign of electrical components to provide adequate power supplyto the new pumps a sanitary connection for the facility new transformer and power supplydesign These items will require additional work during construction for coordination shopdrawing review and general contract administration duties
The fees for Contract Administration are shown in the project costs and authorization to issue a
purchase order to RVA will be requested at the time the tender award expected in June of this yearFees for the Contractor Short Listing and PTTW application are requested at this time to allow the
project to proceed

Attention Mr Doug Austin
Senior Engineering Coordinator
Dear Mr Austin
Re Request for Additional Engineering Fees
Parsons Road Pumping Station and Reservoir Upgrades Town of New Tecumseth
We have prepared this letter to provide you with the details of our request for additional engineeringfees for work and expenditures that are above the scope identified in the Request for Proposal
PROJECT STATUS
RV Anderson Associates Limited was retained to work on this project in March 2009 Our
engineering budget for the project as per the Purchase Order totals 24568000 It was bid based
on the Terms of Reference of January 21 2009 and the recommendations presented in the WaterDistribution and Storage Master Servicing Plan of 2007
The Preliminary Design Report outlined the additional engineering fees of 58500 61500 less
3000 credit associated with the increased scope of work for Preliminary and Final Design of the
Parsons Road Reservoir and Pumping Station Upgrades
The Preliminary Design Report also identified that there would be additional engineering fees for
contract administration and inspection associated with the increased scope It was agreed that these
fees would be evaluated at a later date once the construction contract has been awarded
On July 23 2010 the Town approved additional engineering fees in the amount of 14100 to revise
the distribution connection to the Honda Plant and to prepare a contingency plan to address the
operation of the Parsons Road Pumping Station during construction
On September 14 2010 the Town approved additional engineering fees in the amount of1080000for the design of a new transformer and power supply including a soils resistivity study
The following table provides a snap shot of the approved project budget to date up to the periodending December 31 2010 Please note that we have included the initial budget for Contract
Administration submitted with the Proposal and adjusted the total fees accordingly

ADDITIONAL ENGINEERING
During the preliminary design works a number of items were identified that are in addition to the
scope identified in the Request for Proposal which will affect the engineering fees for Contract
Administration and Inspection
As per our telephone conference discussion of February 1 2011 the Town has expressed interest in
short listing General Contractors to help ensure a quality product and reduce potential issues
encountered during construction
We have described the activities and provided a breakdown per item of the estimated additional
engineering fees in the following paragraphs The costs include disbursements exclude HST
1 General Contractor Short Listing
Short listing general contractors for complicated upgrades where uninterrupted operation of the
existing facilities must be maintained would help to avoid any potential issues that may be
encountered during construction with regard to contractors capabilities and experience Additionallyrestricting the bidding to only a short list of experienced general contractors can provide a better
opportunity for equally experiencedqualified general contractors to provide competitive bids while
helping to increase the quality of the finished product
There are two issues associated with this change of direction Firstly the schedule towards tenderingand award of the project would be impacted A second issue is the engineering fees associated with
the completion of this task To enable the Town to make an informed decision we provide the
following information on these two critical items
Project Schedule
The short listing of General Contractors would involve creating an Expression of Interest terms of
reference that would be clear and transparent to prevent any legal challenges or ramifications The
document would describe the project in general terms list the submission and previous experience
requirements explain how the evaluation of submissions would be completed including breakdown
of scoring structure and request a minimum of three Engineer or Owner references for the General
Contracting company Project Manager and Site Superintendant Part of the submission
requirements would also ask the Contractor to submit a letter stating their commitment to submitting a
bid if short listed

Mr Doug Austin 3 RV Anderson Associates Limited
February 28 2011
Once the EOI is closed we would review the submissions and contact the references to ask a set of
predetermined questions to each A score would be assigned to each question level of experienceetc The results would be summarized as part of the evaluation of the general capabilities of the
Contractor The result of the evaluation and scoring would be used to short list 4 to 5 GeneralContractors to submit bids on the project
The following table compares the current project schedule with a modified schedule including a
General Contractor short listing process Please note that we have assumed that Council approvalwould be required to initial the Short Listing process however approval would not be required to
approve the short list of General Contractors

2 Permit To Take Water
Based on the information provided in the Geotechnical Report by Alston and Associates the
dewatering for the construction of the Reservoir is anticipated to be higher than 50000 Uday for a
period longer than 30 days This dewatering scenario requires a Category 3 Permit to Take Waterwhich requires the preparation of a Hydrogeological Study to determine the impact of the proposeddewatering
The Permit to Take Water can be left for the Contractor to obtain as part of the construction process
however it is our experience that this often results in delays in the construction schedule and
corresponding claims for additional costs for winter work and dewatering activities
With regard to the engineering fee to complete a Category 3 Permit to Take Water for the project we
have estimated a total upset limit of24700 including disbursements HST1 The scope of work
would include the followingOursubconsultant Golder Associates would perform the necessary investigations and
studies required to determine the rate of dewatering required during construction
All drilling activities would be conducted by a MOE licensed Water Well Contractor
Construction and testing of one pumping well to perform a pump test and insitu hydraulicfalling head test to estimate the hydraulic conductivity and dewatering drawdown
characteristics of the sand
Analysis of groundwater samples for metals nutrients pterolium hydrocarbons and volatile
organic compounds and potential discharge to the culvert along Parsons Road
Recommendations for onsite water treatment management and contingency plans duringdewateringWindshield survey of the surrounding 500 m to assess impacts on potential groundwaterusers and to identify any potential contaminant sources
Preparation of Report for comment and completion of Permit to Take Water ApplicationpackageFollow up communication with Ministry of Environment regarding application package
Incorporation of dewatering and recommended mitigation measures and contingency plansinto Contract Documents
3 Additional Engineering Fees Associated with Contract Administration
With the additional scope identified through the Preliminary Design process the tender periodassistance construction duration and inspection shop drawing review and coordination requirementshave increased from the initial scope identified in the proposal In 2009 it was agreed that the
Contract Administration and Inspection fees would bereevaluated when the project reached
construction
Although the scope of work included in the tender documents has increased from the initial scope of
work there will only be 4 or 5 short listed bidders which would allow us to maintain the Tender
Period Assistance fee estimate included with the proposal
We have estimated the following fees for the increase in scope for Tendering and Contract
Administration and included the initial fees submitted with the Proposal for comparison purposes

We would like to acknowledge that the Contract Administration fees presented in the above table are
higher than our preliminary estimate provided in the Preliminary Design Report and 75 DesignConstruction Cost Estimate
We would like to identify the following items which relate to the increase in engineering fee estimate
Construction duration The proposal had identified construction would begin in 2010 and last
for 36 weeks The construction is now scheduled to begin in 2011 and it is estimated that itwill take 15 months 64 weeks to complete
Cost of living increase The preliminary design and the final design engineering work were
delayed for the project by more than one year Our firm as many others applies annual
salary increases which is a direct cost of operation The staff involved in the design on this
project has had their billing rates reviewed and adjusted for 2011 above the 2009 rates listed
in the proposal Their new billing rates were used to estimate the above engineering fees
Additional items have been added to the scope of work since the Preliminary Design Report

was issued including the automated gate sanitary connection transformer and power supply
design These items will require additional work during construction for coordination shop
drawing review and general contract administration duties
Please note that the above Contract Administration fees were estimated based on a monthlysite meeting which is typically what is required for a project of this magnitude
In the event that the contract duration is shorter than 15 months we would reduce our budget by21000 per month In the event that the contract duration extends beyond 15 months we would use
the same monthly amount to request additional fees
It is an accepted industry practice thatengineering fees are in the order of 10 to 15 of the total
construction costs with approximately half of the fees associated with preliminary and final designand the other half associated with contract administration In comparison the table below compares
the engineering fees assuming that all the additional fees have been approved by the Town in

Based on the above information we are confident that we have been able to provide the Town with
good engineering services at a highly competitive cost for the Parsons Road Reservoir and PumpingStation Upgrades
Therefore we kindly ask that our request for additional engineering fees for the items that the Town
wishes to pursue as described in this letter be approved by the Town of New Tecumseth
