(THI) and the Town ofTillsonburg with regard to the issue of 'Electrical Distribution System Expansions' in your community. We further request the opportunity to present the contents of this letter to the Town Council at their earliest convenience. Introduction In 2012 the Town ofTillsonburg hosted several Target Tillsonburg symposiums to gather information from local realtors, home builders and residential land developers. Our understanding is that the Town ofTillsonburg recognizes the need to foster growth and the Town was reaching out to stakeholders requesting input into how the Town could be more competitive and how to market the Town of Tillsonburg to attract residents to this community. Further we understand that over the past 5 years there have been very few (if any) new residential lots serviced in the Town. Hayhoe Homes has completed residential developments in the City of St Thomas for over 20 years. We consider ourselves to be community builders embracing the benefits of integrating residential land development with home building. In 2008 we started building homes in Tillsonburg; we have built the 50 homes in the Park Place community from 2008 to present (we purchased serviced lots on Park Place from the developer). Most recently Hayhoe Homes has completed the servicing of 52 residential lots on Colin Avenue under the marketing name Reynolds Way. We are excited about this development and the potential to provide continued employment to the construction sector through new home construction. We have worked cooperatively with the Town to complete the site servicing and currently have 6 homes under construction. Concerns Our biggest obstacle in continuing to invest and work in your community is the unfair treatment of residential developers by Tillsonburg Hydro Inc. As many of you will know the Ontario Energy Board (OEB) sets out methodology for cost sharing of Electrical Distribution System Expansions between the Local Distribution Company (LDC) and the developer. Simply stated the OEB methodology for cost sharing for electrical system expansions allows the LDC to bill the developer for the costs that they cannot recover from rates charged over a 25 year time- 1 BARRIE BOULEVARD, ST.

Relevant policies are included in the Attachments section of this report. The proposed severances will result in the enlargement of an existing residential lot and the creation of two vacant building lots with frontage along Wilson Avenue. The intent of the policies of the Low Density Residential designation is to ensure that the built form, massing and profile of new housing is well integrated and compatible with existing housing and established residential areas. The proposed development complies with the Official Plan policies (Section 8.2.4.1.1) respecting street-oriented infill development as the proposed lot fabric will be consistent with the characteristics of existing development on Wilson Avenue. The proposed lots will have similar street frontage, setback and spacing as existing development along the north and south side of Wilson Avenue. Existing lots within the immediate area around the subject lands have varied lot sizes and shapes. The proposed severances will create a lot fabric that is nearly identical to other lots immediately adjacent to the east and will not be out of character of the general nature of the lot fabric along Wilson Avenue. The existing lot fabric and building locations are shown on Plate 1 , attached to this report. Furthermore, all 'infill proposals' shall have regard for the location of vehicular access points, adequate existing municipal services, stormwater run-off, off-street parking and outdoor amenity areas. The proposed development is not expected to negatively impact any of the above concerns. Although the future townhouse/condominium development will be subject to a zone change and site plan approval, Planning staff and Town staff are generally of the opinion that the retained parcel will have adequate access from Wilson Avenue and is large enough to accommodate some form of future development. Detailed stormwater management reports, servicing studies and drawings, traffic impact studies, and planning justification reports will be required as part of the approval process for the proposed development. Given the above, Planning staff are of the opinion that the proposal maintains the general intent and purpose of the Official Plan respecting lot creation in Low Density Residential Areas.

LOCATION: The subject property is described as Part Lot 48, Plan M-86 in the Town of Tillsonburg. The lands are located on the south side of Jackson Court, south of Balazs Court and north of Clear Valley Drive, and are municipally known as 36 Jackson Court. BACKGROUND INFORMATION: COUNTY OF OXFORD OFFICIAL PLAN: TOWN OF TILLSONBURG ZONING BY-LAW: SURROUNDING USES: COMMENTS: Low Density Residential Special Medium Density Residential Zone (RM-1) Surrounding uses are residential, including street fronting townhouses and single detached dwellings File No. A 05/13 Report No. 2013-243 Page 3 It is the opinion of this office that the applicants' request for an increased lot coverage and increased permitted projection into the required rear yard depth for the proposed covered porch meets the nature and intent of the policies of the Official Plan and will not set an undesired precedent. The sides of the proposed covered porch will remain unenclosed and the porch will cover an existing concrete pad and will replace a temporary awning. The Hickory Hills Townhouse Development is characterized by increased lot coverages and reduced rear amenity spaces to accommodate one storey dwellings. The proposed development should not cause an adverse impact on adjacent property owners and can be considered desirable development of the residential property. (d) Intent and Purpose of the Zoning By-law: The subject property is zoned Special Medium Density Residential Zone (RM-1) in the Town of Tillsonburg Zoning By-Law No. 3295. The RM-1 zone provisions provide for an increased residential townhouse density (maximum of 40 units) and require a minimum rear yard depth of 7.5 m (24.6 ft) for street fronting townhouse dwellings. The Zoning By-law allows covered porches to encroach 1.5 m (4.9 ft) into the required rear yard depth and requires a minimum separation of 7.5 m (24.6 ft) between a lot line and permitted projection. The purpose of the rear yard setback and lot coverage provisions is to ensure that residential dwellings maintain sufficient setback to provide a buffer for neighbouring properties, adequate recreational and amenity area, and proper area for drainage. The proposed covered porch addition is considered to be part of the main dwelling rather than part of the outdoor amenity area, and therefore the said covered porch is required to comply with the setback and coverage requirements for the main dwelling. The proposed covered porch addition will comply with the remaining requirements of the Zoning By-law. Given that the proposed cover porch will be constructed on an existing concrete pad, no impact to the existing drainage pattern is expected and there will be no increase is impermeable surface. Planning staff are of the opinion that the requested relief from the Zoning By-Law represents a minor departure from the establishing zoning standards and is consistent with the overall intent of the zoning provisions. (e) Desirable Development/Use: The applicant proposes to construct a covered porch addition with an area of 16 m2 (172 ff). The proposed covered porch would extend 3.3 m (10.83 ft) into the required rear yard depth. The location of the proposed addition to the street-fronting townhouse dwelling is in keeping with the character of the surrounding residential neighbourhood and would not appear to have an adverse effect on the adjacent neighbouring properties. The proposed development will not encroach into the drainage easement at the rear of the property. Public notification of the application for minor variance was circulated to surrounding property owners on August 27, 2013. As of the writing of this planning report, no correspondence has been received from the public. The proposed increased lot coverage, increased permitted encroachment into the rear yard depth, and reduced minimum separation to the rear lot line for the covered porch is not anticipated to have adverse impacts to the neighbouring land uses. If approved, the reduced ldbqqrdCount~ ~ growing stronger. .. together 112.4 NAD_1983_UTM_Zone_17N © County of Oxford 0 Plate 1 -Location Map (with Existing Zoning and Parc'i:!'i(ines) File No.: A-05/13-Michael & Rita Hawrelluk Part Lot 48, Plan M-86, Town of Tillson burg-36 Jackson Court 56.19 112.4 Meters August 29, 2013 This map is a user generated static output from an Internet mapping site and is for reference only.

The conference is a chance to speak to the various Provincial Ministers regarding issues and concerns of the municipalities. SCOR EDC Board members met with 14 Ministers and leaders of the opposition. SCOR EDC Board members met with key Ministries including, Rural Affairs, Economic Development, Trade and Employment, Infrastructure, Training Colleges & Universities, Citizenship & Immigration, and Agriculture & Food. The discussions were small urban and rural focused on the issues of sustainable infrastructure for SCOR communities, employment solutions for youth and targeted immigration attraction to fill employment gaps in our aging communities. Minister of Infrastructure Glen Murray was sympathetic to the issues facing rural and small urban municipalities in dealing with aging infrastructure. "Rural Ontario faces high infrastructure costs due to the scale and nature of the communities we serve. We have more miles of roads and bridges and other infrastructure per resident than more densely populated cities", comments Chuck Hall, SCOR EDC Treasurer. "We need support from the Province and need to be more innovative, sharing costs and partnering with neighboring municipalities on infrastructure and "'1Unicipal asset management costs." ) Minister of Rural Affairs, Jeff Leal, was very supportive of SCOR's efforts and offered support on a number of projects that SCOR brought forward to the Ministry of Rural Affairs. He praised SCOR and their progress to date, and committed to the continuation of the close relationship between the two organizations. The Ministry also announced the re-launch of the Rural Economic Development Program (RED) which has two streams: Planning and Implementation Streams. http://www.omafra.gov.on.ca/english/rural/red/ Minster of Economic Development and Employment, Eric Hoskins has taken SCOR's recommendation regarding the thresholds for job creation for businesses under advisement for Southwestern Ontario Development. http://www.ontario.ca/business-and-economy/southwestern-ontario-development-fund Minister of Training Colleges and Universities, Brad Duguid, was very positive and applauded SCOR's work with the Workforce Planning Boards and other education stakeholders in the region to focus on collaborative solutions that provide efficient and effective solutions to our youth employment and skills shortages issues. "These are complex issues that need to involve all stakeholders for us to make meaningful changes", comments Jim Oliver, SCOR EDC Vice-Chair. "The Board members met with several Ministries at AMO and SCOR continues to be highly regarded and recognized by upper levels of government. SCOR continues to advocate for key issues that will help strengthen our communities. This is a job that requires long-term vision and we are making definite progress on a number of issues. We have some exciting projects and collaborations that we will be pursuing in the months to come and have had commitments from a number of Ministries to assist in these efforts." comments John Lessif, Chair of SCOR EDC.

This year will mark the 13tl' Anniversary of our Awareness Day which recognizes the education, skills, commitment and dedication of Early Childhood Educators and Child Care Staff. The Ontario Coalition for Better Child Care (OCBCC), the Canadian Union of Public Employees (CUPE) and our other labour pat1ners representing child care workers across Ontario are asking that Wednesday. October 30, 2013 be proclaimed as Cltild Care Worker.& Early Childhood Educator Appreciation Day in accordance with the attached resolution. Many groups are recognized by way of Municipal Resolution. Such a day allows the community to recognize the work of various groups and to acknowledge the contributions they make in the lives of community members. Many children, families and communities benefit from the work of child care workers. Child care also contributes to the economic life of communities. Research shows the many economic benefits accrued from affordable, accessible high quality child care. These benefits come from the number of people employed in the child care industry and because the availability of child care allows parents to work and to contribute to the economic life of society. Even if your Council does not issue official proclamations, there are many ways for your municipality to participate in and celebrate this special day. We ask your Council to sponsor public announcements, display our posters and distribute our buttons. Many municipalities also organize events and contests for the day or have Councillors or the Mayor participate in events hosted by child care centres within the municipality. A list of ideas and examples is attached. We hope that your proclamation of this day of appreciation, or your active supp01t, will encourage and promote a day of community recognition for child care workers. Please fax the attached order to request posters and buttons to help you raise awareness and celebrate. Please advise us of your participation in this day of recognition so that we can acknowledge your community's role in celebrating child care workers across Ontario on October 301h. Please direct any correspondence on proclamations and/or celebration activities to the attention of Sarah Declerck, by mail: CUPE, 80 Commerce Valley Drive East, Markham, Ontario, L3T OB2 or by fax at 905-739-3999.

The city council passed a resolution supporting the creation of a National Dementia Strategy through Bill 356, currently before the federal House of Commons. This private member's bill was introduced by Nickel Belt MP Claude Gravelle. Across Canada 747,000 people are living with dementia, in Oxford County alone, there are over 1850 people. This number is expected to increase 30% by the year 2020. There is urgency to the matter, as more and more families struggle to find the appropriate care for people with dementia, whether at home, in the community, or in a long-term care facility. Locally in Oxford County, there is a lack of respite care options for people with dementia and their caregivers. In-home respite services are lacking for those who do not require assistance with activities of daily living (i.e. bathing) leaving caregivers to find other options at a high cost. Due to a shortage. of respite beds in long-term care homes, longer respite breaks for caregivers are almost impossible to schedule. In Oxford County, many clients live in rural areas where respite programming such as Adult Day Programs are not available and transportation options to programs are minimal. Without respite options for caregivers to get a much needed break, premature admission to long-term care homes becomes the only option for family members who are over stressed and therefore no longer able to care for the person with dementia. If a person with dementia and their caregiver is eligible to receive home care support services, there is often frustration with the inconsistency of home care providers. Many families report they are not able to build rapport with home care providers due to this inconsistency which can impact the person with dementia's willingness to accept help, leaving the caregiver to carry a further burden. A lack of respite services is just one of the struggles faced by people with dementia and their caregivers in Oxford County. Other struggles include but are not limited to long waiting lists to see ALZHEIMER SOCIETY OF OXFORD 575 PEEL STREET, WOODSTOCK, ONTARIO N4S 1K6 TEL: (519) 421-2466 FAX: (519) 421-3098 WEB SITE: www.alzhelmer.ca/oxford E-MAIL: info@alzheimer.oxford.on.ca CHARITABLE REGISTRATION NUMBER: 13049 8058 RROOOl , i; '/ ( ,--A I z h e i m e r ,\·,,· (,-( · i c' / ·~ ~ NEED FOR ACTION: Dementia Care Strategy His or Her Worship Mayor & Honorable Members of Council, Every 5 minutes a new case of dementia is reported in Canada. Many countries have recognized the urgency and impact of Alzheimer's disease and related dementias and develop strategies accordingly. Canada does not have a strategy to support the people, health care system or communities that are affected by this devastating disease. On behalf of the Societe Alzheimer Society we thank all municipalities who have passed or are discussing this matter at a future municipal meeting. A Dementia strategy assures that we work collaboratively towards providing the best care for the people in your community affected by this disease. In building awareness and through sending a resolution to the government of Ontario and Canada requesting urgent action, we may put into place a plan for action reducing the fiscal expenditures. As of September 2013 we have received over 6o resolutions from municipalities across Ontario and the support continues to grow, please help us in building awareness.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Earlier in 2013, Council asked Staff to update Council on the vacant land inventory within the municipality. BACKGROUND As part of the tracking of residential development activity started early in 2013 by staff within the Department of Development and Communications Services, the attached spreadsheet was created. Staff from Oxford County Public Works use this sheet to assist in the water and sewer servicing allocation for Tillsonburg. On a quarterly basis this tracking sheet is sent to Oxford County Staff. The tracking sheet currently shows an excess of 372 vacant services lots and 711 unserviced lots. Staff were asked about the absorption rates of these lands. As Council will recall the quarterly reports present building permit activity by category. Currently staff are expecting over 50 single detached permits to be issued in 2013. Within the Department marketing expertise and programs are underway to market and attract residents and development to the community to utilize these lots.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Earlier in 2013, Council asked Staff to present to Council how municipally owned employment lands are valued. This report addresses that request. BACKGROUND Tillsonburg owns approximately 142 acres of lands dedicated for economic development purposes. Of these lands 58 acres is serviced with the remaining being unserviced. The municipality predominantly owns lands in the following locations: • Clearview Drive • Highway 3 • Rokeby Road • Lincoln Street The lands within the Highway 3 Business Park staff have been working to value these lands on the input costs to bring the lands to market. STAFF REPORT DEVELOPMENT & COMMUNICATION SERVICES Title: SUMMARY OF AIRPORT HANGAR LAND LEASE PROCEDURES Report No.: DCS 13-70 Author: ANNETTE MURRAY Meeting Type: COUNCIL MEETING Council/Committee SEPTEMBER 9, 2013 Date: Attachments: RECOMMENDATION RESOLVE THAT Council receive Report DCS 13-70 Summary of Airport Hangar Land Lease Procedures; and, FURTHER THAT the land lease rate for existing and new hangar developments be held at $0.29 per square foot annually subject to an annual review provided by December 31 of each calendar year. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The purpose of this summary is to provide Council with an overview of how Tillsonburg Regional Airport tenants are invoiced for their hangar land leases as well as to provide the current rate of land leases and rationale behind the lease rates. Up to and including 2011, land lease invoices were issued and reconciled through the Finance Department. Commencing in 2012 the responsibility for invoicing moved to the Airport in order to provide a higher level of service by making it easier for customers to make their payments. Additional benefits include making it easier for Airport staff to manage accounts receivables and revenue forecasts. Invoicing for property taxes continues to be administered through the Finance Department as they are best suited to manage this aspect of the land leases. Land lease invoices are billed annually and are due 60 days after receipt. Historically, the invoices were issued after the final property tax costs were known and this tended to be in the last quarter of the year. Staff have been progressively moving the invoice date to earlier in the year in order to reflect the lease terms. All invoices are tracked by airport staff and are entered into a spreadsheet for ease of tracking.

It has already killed tens of thousands of ash trees. The Municipal Arborists and Urban Foresters, a Committee of the International Society of Arboriculture and the Ontario Urban Forest Council are working to raise awareness about EAB and the environmental and economic fallout. Public property owners, homeowners, businesses, institutions, and utilities will have to deal with thousands of ash trees before they become a liability and bear the cost of implementing programs to deal with this terrible loss to our urban forest. Effective EAB programs involve the following: • Identifying ash trees, size and locations (an inventory) • Monitoring the distribution of the pest within local areas • Identifying and treating trees worthy of preservation • Tree removal on public and private lands, and disposal of wood waste • Replanting replacement trees. Currently, neither the Federal nor Provincial Governments are providing sufficient financial/management support to municipalities for implementation of any part of an EAB program. With the CFIA recently announcing they were moving the EAB regulated zones up to the French River area by early next year. Therefore, we have prepared the attached proclamation calling for A FEDERAL and PROVINCIAL ROLE IN URBAN FORESTRY. Attached is a proclamation we are sending to Clerks across Ontario. We are seeking your Council's endorsement of this proclamation and would ask that you present this to your respective Council for consideration. Thank you for your assistance in bringing this to your Council's attention.

TTFN Joan August 22, 2013 To Mayors and Councils, 80 Commerce Valley Drive, East., Suite 1 Markham, ON L3T 082 Phone: 905-739-9739 • Fax: 905-739-9740 Web: cupe.on.ca E-mail: cupeont@web.net We are writing to ask that you and your Council endorse a day of recognition for the many people who work providing care to children in your community. This year will mark the 13th Anniversary of our Awareness Day which recognizes the education, skills, commitment and dedication of Early Childhood Educators and Child Care Staff. The Ontario Coalition for Better Child Care (OCBCC), the Canadian Union of Public Employees (CUPE) and our other labour partners representing child care workers across Ontario are asking that Wednesday, October 30, 2013 be proclaimed as Child Care Worker & Early Childhood Educator Appreciation Day in accordance with the attached resolution. Many groups are recognized by way of Municipal Resolution. Such a day allows the community to recognize the work of various groups and to acknowledge the contributions they make in the lives of community members. Many children, families and communities benefit from the work of child care workers. Child care also contributes to the economic life of communities. Research shows the many economic benefits accrued from affordable, accessible high quality child care. These benefits come from the number of people employed in the child care industry and because the availability of child care allows parents to work and to contribute to the economic life of society. Even if your Council does not issue official proclamations, there are many ways for your municipality to participate in and celebrate this special day. We ask your Council to sponsor public announcements, display our posters and distribute our buttons. Many municipalities also organize events and contests for the day or have Councillors or the Mayor participate in events hosted by child care centres within the municipality. A list of ideas and examples is attached.

The city council passed a resolution supporting the creation of a National Dementia Strategy through Bill 356, currently before the federal House of Commons. This private member's bill was introduced by Nickel Belt MP Claude Gravelle. Across Canada 747,000 people are living with dementia, in Oxford County alone, there are over 1850 people. This number is expected to increase 30% by the year 2020. There is urgency to the matter, as more and more families struggle to find the appropriate care for people with dementia, whether at home, in the community, or in a long-term care facility. Locally in Oxford County, there is a lack of respite care options for people w ith dementia and their caregivers. In-home respite services are lacking for those who do not require assistance with activities of daily living (i.e. bathing) leaving caregivers to find other options at a high cost. Due to a shortage of respite beds in long-term care homes, longer respite breaks for caregivers are almost impossible to schedule. In Oxford County, many clients live in rural areas where respite programming such as Adult Day Programs are not available and transportation options to programs are minimal. Without respite options for caregivers to get a much needed break, premature admission to long-term care homes becomes the only option for family members who are over stressed and therefore no longer able to care for the person with dementia. If a person with dementia and their caregiver is eligible to receive home care support services, there is often frustration with the inconsistency of home care providers. Many families report they are not able to build rapport with home care providers due to this inconsistency which can impact the person with dementia's willingness to accept help, leaving the caregiver to carry a further burden. A lack of respite services is just one of the struggles faced by people with dementia and their caregivers in Oxford County. Other struggles include but are not limited to long waiting lists to see ALZHEIMER SOCIETY OF OXFORD 575 PEEL STREET, WOODSTOCK, ONTARIO N4S 1K6 TEL: {519) 421-2466 FAX: {519) 421-3098 WEB SITE: www.alzheimer.ca/oxford E-MAIL: info@alzheimer.oxford.on.ca CHARITABLE REGISTRATION NUMBER: 13049 8058 RR0001 ....__. Alzheimer ,, ,(" ·:i'' li..• il··· OXFORD specialists for diagnosis and treatment and difficulties navigating the health care system. People with dementia and their caregivers need to be strong advocates in order to receive the care they require from the health care system. Sadly, there are many that are unable to advocate for themselves, do not have the support of others to advocate for them, or are so overwhelmed that they have difficulty advocating for services and thus are left to navigate this disease on their own without appropriate care. Many other industrialized countries have taken a lead in developing and implementing a coordinated approach to dementia through various strategies. These include the United Kingdom, Malta, France, the Netherlands, South Korea, Norway and Scotland. Canada is lagging behind, with no strategy for supporting people affected by dementia across the country. With your support, this could change. We support the Alzheimer Society of Sudbury-Manitoulin in working with their local municipality in passing such an important resolution, and wish to see similar success in our region. Thank you for considering this resolution. For more information, please contact Shelley Green, Executive Director of the Alzheimer Society of Oxford at 519-421-2466 ext 222. Sine~ Shelley Green Executive Director /ch cc: Deputy Mayor Mark Renaud "Alzheimer r NEED FOR ACTION: Dementia Care Strategy His or Her Worship Mayor & Honorable Members of Council, Every 5 minutes a new case of dementia is reported in Canada. Many countries have recognized the urgency and impact of Alzheimer's disease and related dementias and develop strategies accordingly. Canada does not have a strategy to support the people, health care system or communities that are affected by this devastating disease. On behalf of the Societe Alzheimer Society we thank all municipalities who have passed or are discussing this matter at a future municipal meeting. A Dementia strategy assures that we work collaboratively towards providing the best care for the people in your community affected by this disease. In building awareness and through sending a resolution to the government of Ontario and Canada requesting urgent action, we may put into place a plan for action reducing the fiscal expenditures. As of September 2013 we have received over 6o resolutions from municipalities across Ontario and the support continues to grow, please help us in building awareness.

His legislation calls for a national plan that includes the development of strategies in primary health care, in health promotion and prevention of illness, in community development, in building community capacity and care partner engagement, investments in research and other (advisory board, objectives, investment in research, and caregivers and more) Now therefore, the City of INSERT YOUR TOWN HERE calls on all levels of government and the Federation of Municipalities to adopt a national dementia strategy, and urges all citizens of our communities to become more aware and engaged concerning the far-reaching effects of this devastating disease. ......, u <1J . ......, 0 L.. c.. c 0 ·-....., ro N ·--co ......., ·-> (]) ~ 1... co ~ lf) ·-...J (JJ ~ co ...J Lake Lisgar Revitalization Project Progress Report Phases 3 and 4 Phase 3: Community Infrastructure Improvement Fund I Project Description: •!• New energy-efficient lighting and windows; •!• Repair of building foundation; •!• Parking lot safety and accessibility improvements; •!• Infrastructure repair of part of the Trans Canada Trail; •!• Extension of public lake walkway; •!• Wheelchair accessibility and safety improvements to public scenic landings; •!• Provision of safe lake access; •!• Upgrade booms and netting.
