Canada's auto industry has survived perhaps the most turbulent decade in its history. Despite significant downsizing, violent uncertainty, and significant barriers thrown up in its way, the industry is still here. And it still makes a crucial, disproportionate contribution to Canadian incomes, productivity, innovation, and exports. The Canadian Auto Workers union has developed a paper titled "Re-thinking Canada's Auto Industry: A Policy Vision to Escape the Race to the Bottom". This paper identifies I 0 key points: I. Implement an Integrated Auto Policy 2. Negotiate Canadian Manufacturing Footprint Commitments with All OEMs 3. A Consistent and Transparent Auto Investment Program 4. Accumulate Public Minority Equity Shares in OEMs With Major Canadian Operations 5. Investigate Possibilities of Building a Canadian OEM 6. Re-think Automotive Trade Policy 7.

Almost 40,000 jobs have been lost since the industry's peak in 2003; and WHEREAS over 100,000 Canadians are presently directly employed in the Canadian Auto Industry; and WHEREAS economic studies now suggest that for every job in a major auto facility a total of 10 jobs are supported throughout the region and national economy; and WHEREAS Canada has lost two more light vehicle assembly plants during the years since the financial crisis hit: The General Motors pickup truck plant in Oshawa (closed in 2008), and the Ford car assembly plant in St. Thomas (closed in 2011). This brings to 5 the number of light vehicle final assembly plants closed in Canada since the turn of the century; and WHEREAS in Canada we are scheduled to loss another light vehicle assembly plant within the next year. The General Motors Consolidated plant in Oshawa in June 2013 that will result in the loss of over 2,000 good jobs. WHEREAS in 1999 Canada's auto exports exceed our imports by $15 billion. This positive trend has ceased beginning in 2006.

The Town of Tillsonburg Municipal Policing Renewal Proposal Prepared by: Ontario Provincial Police Municipal Policing Bureau September 2012 Executive Summary The Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) has over 100 years of experience in providing effective community-based policing and protection throughout Ontario. The OPP has provided municipal policing services under contract for over 60 years and currently maintains contracts with over 140 communities across Ontario. The Town of Tillsonburg has requested a renewal of the current contract with the Ministry for OPP policing which expired on September 30, 2011. As a result of this request a renewal proposal for policing has been prepared. The renewal proposal addresses the level of policing services required to provide adequate and effective policing as set out in Regulation 3199 of the Police Services Act, Adequacy and Effectiveness of Police Services. To assist in determining an adequate and effective level of service, an analysis of the workload generated within the municipality during the past (four years) has been completed. This analysis allows the OPP to compare local occurrences and incidents with provincial averages to accurately determine the number of officers required. This renewal proposal reflects the integrated policing concept, incorporating a policing service contract for the Town of Tillsonburg with OPP highway patrol services and provincial responsibilities under one administration. The Oxford OPP Detachment will remain as the Administration/Operations Centre. The resources identified will continue to be deployed to the Town from this municipally owned facility located at 90 Concession Street, East, Tillsonburg, Ontario to ensure the policing needs of the Town are met. Administrative and support resources are shared and casted accordingly. The Oxford OPP Detachment Commander would be responsible to oversee all aspects of service delivery. The Detachment Commander, Staff Sergeant I Program Manager and Sergeant-Shift Supervisors will provide assistance and supervision to the identified complement in this renewal proposal. It is recommended that any existing Community Policing Offices (CPOs) located within the Town be maintained. CPOs facilitate the delivery of policing services, provide locations for the police and public to interact and maintain a visible police presence within the municipality. The OPP encourages the establishment of CPOs where appropriate. Where such offices exist they are usually equipped with a telephone and OPP network/NICHE capabilities. Any decision to establish CPOs in the Town of Tillsonburg rests entirely with Town Council as do all associated costs. The renewal proposal costs include a comprehensive range of services that are made available to the Town of Tillsonburg. For example, expenses relating to contract negotiations, arbitration, grievances, civil litigation, tendering/purchasing, information technology, fleet and telecommunications are included in the overall Ministry approved costing formula. These services often require considerable internal and external expertise and the high costs normally associated to such services are defrayed through the contract for OPP services. * Note -The most recently approved costing formula shall apply in the calendar year following its approval. OPP salary costs are comprised of two components: base salary and a Provincial Responsibility Incentive. The base salary costs outlined in this proposal are calculated using the top pay level of each rank, but the Provincial Responsibility Incentive is incorporated using the average cost for all seniority levels. These costs are reconciled annually to reflect actual costs for those officers providing service to the Town at their current salary level. Overtime is estimated at the provincial average of 7.2%, and will also be reconciled to actual usage at year-end. 3 If the Town of Tillsonburg chooses to accept this proposal* and renew the OPP policing services contract, the Oxford OPP Detachment will focus on meeting the Town's unique policing needs. Please Note: The following are not included in this proposal*: • The cost of maintaining the Police Services Board • The costs associated to establishing and maintaining CPOs • Any applicable revenues accruing to the municipality as a result of police activity (* Note-This renewal proposal expires six months from the date of presentation to Council. At that time the costs and service levels identified in the proposal will be subject to review and revision where necessary.) A complete description of services provided by the OPP and civilian governance issues is included in the accompanying document entitled "OPP Municipal Policing Framework -Supplement to OPP Proposal." The services described are included in the overall OPP costing formula. 5 OPP Cost Schedule for Municipal Policing for the Year 2013 (Based on 2012 Municipal Cost Recovery ForrnulaO) The following categories are taken into consideration when preparing the costing proposal: U niforrned Staff Salaries 8 (Based on 2013 salary rates) Overtime Rate 8 Shift Premium Contractual Payouts Rate 8 (Vacation and Statutory Holidays) Civilian Staff Salaries 8 (Based on 20 13 salary rates) Benefit Rates 8 Support Salaries and Benefits (cost per uniformed member) Other Direct Operating Expenses (ODOE) (cost per uniformed member, unless otherwise stated) 2013 Estimates Inspector $129,726 Staff Sergeant Staff Sergeant Sergeant $ 118,951 (Detachment Commander) $ 110,616 (Program Manager) Constable Part-time Constable $98,093 $87,240 $66,790 7.2% of uniformed staff salaries $678 per uniformed member-sergeant and below 3.8% of full-time uniformed staff salaries Court Officer Detachment Administrative Clerk Caretaker $57,255 $55,439 $46,961 24.9% uniformed staff(part-time 19.6%) 25.3% civilian staff(part-time 19.7%) 2 % overtime payments Communication Operators Prisoner Guards$1,381 Office Automation Support Telephone Support Operational Support 0 Communication Centre Operational Support 0 RHQ Municipal Support Vehicle Usage Telephone Office Supplies & Equipment Accommodation Uniforms & Equipment Cleaning Contract Mobile Radio Maintenance Office Automation -Uniform -Civilian $5,220 $354 $120 $3,907 $258 $837 $1,955 $8,258 $1,228 $448 $538 $1,167 $204 $786 $1,316 $1,648 (per civilian member) 0 Note that the Municipal Cost Recovery Formula is reviewed and updated annually.

LOCATION: The subject property is described as Part of Lot 34, 35, 36, Plan M25, in the Town of Tillson burg. The lands are located on the west side of Lisgar Avenue and south side of Devonshire Avenue, north of Hardy Avenue and east of Devon Court. The lands are municipally known as 210-230 Lisgar Avenue. BACKGROUND INFORMATION: COUNTY OF OXFORD OFFICIAL PLAN: TOWN OF TILLSON BURG ZONING BY-LAW: SURROUNDING USES: COMMENTS: (a) Purpose of the Application: Service Commercial 'Service Commercial-Existing Commercial Plaza (SC-E)' Surrounding uses include low density and medium density residential uses, and the Town of Tillson burg Community Centre Complex and associated sports fields to the south. This application was deferred at the November 12, 2012 Committee of Adjustment meeting to allow further information to be presented to Council. Council requested that neighbours be File No. A 09/12 Report No. 2012-297 Page 3 parking on both sides of Hardy Avenue between Lisgar Ave and the Tillsonburg Community Centre is a particular concern when emergency vehicles need to access the area, and this issue is exacerbated when the Hardy Avenue roadway is further narrowed by snowbanks. PRS recommend against allowing the exemption". Public notification of the application for minor variance was originally circulated to surrounding property owners on October 30, 2012, and a revised public notice was circulated on November 16, 2012. As of the writing of this planning report, no correspondence has been received from the public. (c) Planning Comments As noted in Community and Strategic Planning Office Report 2012-286; the subject property is a one storey commercial plaza constructed in the early 1970s. The plaza has an approximate gross floor area of 1927.2 m2 (20 737 ft2). The parking requirements for the existing uses in the plaza are outlined in the table below: Unit Type Size Parking #of Vehicle Rate Parking Spaces Required Large Vacant Unit (last use approx. 604.1 m2 (6500 W) 1/20 m2 30.2 10 years ago was a retail store) Restaurant/ Bar 442.4 m2 (4760 ft2) 1/9 m2 49.2 Vacant Space (Retail/ Business 109.8 m2 (1181 ft2) 1/20 m2 5.5 Use) Take Out Restaurant 141.7 m2 ( 1525 ft2) 1/20 m2 7.1 Vacant Space(Retail/ Business Use) 85 m2 (915 ft2) 1/20 m2 4.3 Vacant Space(Retail/ Business Use) 113.4 m2 (1220 ft2) 1/20 m2 5.7 Convenience (Retail/ Business Use) 163.5 m2 (1759 ft2) 1/20 m;! 8.2 Vacant Space (Retail/ Business 97.3 m2 (1047 ft2) 1/20 m2 4.9 Use) H& R Block (Retail/ Business Use) 170.1 m;! (1830ft2) 1/20 m;! 8.5 Total 124 The subject property currently provides 62 parking spaces, or approximately 50% of the minimum required parking spaces required by the Town Zoning By-law. As the construction of the plaza predates the current Town of Tillsonburg Zoning By-law No. 3295 (circa. 2008) and its predecessor, Town of Tillsonburg Comprehensive Zoning By-law No. 1994 (circa. 1977), the subject property would appear to enjoy legal non-conforming status with regards to its existing parking deficiencies. It should be noted that the required number of parking spaces for retail/ business uses in the plaza (as previously existed) is greater than the number of required parking spaces in this application. Alternatively, if the entire plaza was devoted to retail/business uses the plaza would still be deficient by 34 parking spaces. The owner of the plaza, in consultation with Town staff, agreed to measures to limit the number of required parking spaces, including instituting a combined maximum occupant load for the proposed assembly use and the existing bar in the plaza. File No. A 09/12 Report No. 2012-297 Page 5 subject property. The proposed variance will allow the applicant to lease the existing commercial space which has been vacant for a considerable period of time. (d) Summary: In light of the foregoing, it is the opinion of this Office that the applicant's proposal can be given favourable consideration. The relief that the applicant is seeking will not negatively impact the normal use and enjoyment of neighbouring properties and will allow for the full use of the commercial plaza. It is the opinion of this Office that the application for relief of the Town of Tillsonburg Zoning By- law Parking Standards to permit 77 parking spaces in place of required 94 parking spaces to facilitate an assembly use within the existing commercial plaza constitutes a minor variance and can be supported from a planning perspective. RECOMMENDATION That the Town of Tillsonburg Committee of Adjustment approve Application File A 09/12, submitted by Glendonna Corporation for lands described as Part of Lots 34, 35, 36, Plan M25 in the Town of Tillsonburg as it relates to: 1. Relief from Section 5.20.2., Motor Vehicle Parking Standards, to reduce the number of required parking spaces from 94 to 77 to facilitate an assembly use within the existing commercial plaza, subject to the following conditions: i. A building permit for the proposed assembly use shall be issued within one year of the date of the Committee's decision; ii. The applicant enter into an agreement with the Town to construct appropriate fencing on the parking lot boundary adjacent to residential properties, and provide a 1.0 m buffer and safety ballard between the rear of the plaza and the parking aisle.

PURPOSE To obtain Council approval to sell the Library building to the County of Oxford. HISTORY & DISCUSSION With Council's decision to move the library service to the County of Oxford, discussions subsequently took place with the County as to the sale of the building (bricks and mortar only; the land remains in the Town's name). The Town obtained an external appraisal that valued the building, excluding land, at $467,000. The County of Oxford obtained an opinion of value at $323,000 on a depreciated value basis or $332,000 on a residual value basis with a median value of $327,500. Town and County staff met to negotiate a value that is fair to both parties. Staff are recommending that the Library building be sold at a value of $400,000. The reasons for selling the library building are: • It puts permanency in the library location; • The library will remain in the downtown core for the longer term; • The County planned refurbishment of the building will then proceed in early 2013 which is a further long term decision and investment; • The sale helps to potentially mitigate Town transition costs to the County library system; • The sale price was determined as the average between the two values; a value that appears to be fair to all parties.

Implicit in this definition is the consummation of a sale as of the specified date and the passing of title from seller to buyer under conditions whereby: 1) buyer and seller are typically motivated; 2) both parties are well informed or well advised, and acting in what they consider their best interests; 3) a reasonable time is allowed for exposure in the open market; 4) payment is made in terms of cash in Canadian Dollars or in terms of financial arrangements comparable thereto; 5) the price represents the normal consideration for the property sold unaffected by special or creative financing or sales concessions granted by anyone associated with the sale.1 PROPERTY RIGHTS APPRAISED The property rights appraised are those of the iJLeasehold Estate Interest", as if free and clear of any existing financing. PROPERTY RIGHTS DEFINED "A leasehold estate is the right to use and occupy real estate for a stated term under the conditions conveyed in the lease." 2 1 (Canadian Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice, Appraisal Institute of Canada, 2010) 2 The Appraisal of Real Estate, (Canadian Edition, 1992), 114-115 METRIX Realty Group 6 Tillsonburg Public Library 2 Library Lane, Tillsonburg EXPOSURE TIME File#26691 Exposure time is the estimated length of time the property interest being appraised would have been offered in the market prior to the hypothetical sale at the estimated Current Market Value on the effective date of the appraisal. Reasonable exposure encompasses not only adequate, sufficient and reasonable "time", but also adequate, sufficient and reasonable effort. In addition to price, exposure time is a function of use and type of real estate. The subject site comprises an improved property located in a predominantly commercial area. Based on statistical data regarding days on market, discussions with brokers and information derived through analysis of comparable data, our opinion is that a reasonable exposure time for the subject would be approximately 3-6 months. MARKETING nME "Marketing time is an opinion of the amount of time it might take to sell a property interest in real estate at the concluded market value level during the period immediately after the effective date of an appraisal." 3 Our opinion is that a reasonable marketing time for the subject property is approximately 3-6 months. EXTRAORDINARY ASSUMPfiON For every hypothetical condition, an Extraordinary Assumption is required. According to the Canadian Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (CUSPAP 01/01/2010), an Extraordinary Assumption "refers to a hypothesis -either fictitious or unconfirmed -which, if not true, could alter the appraiser's opinions and conclusions". The following hypothetical conditions must be clear to the reader: 3 (Canadian Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice, Appraisal Institute of Canada, 2010) METRIX Realty 6roup 8 Tillsonburg Public Library 2 Library Lane, Tillsonburg SECTION 4 -LOCATION OVERVIEW TOWN OF TILLSONBURG ECONOMIC BASE POPULATION (2011 CENSUS) File#26691 • Town of Tillsonburg has a population of 15,301 and is located in Oxford County • Represents a population increase of 3.2 % over the 2006 census data • Part of the County of Oxford, comprising a total population of 105,719 people • Tillsonburg is the second largest centre within Oxford County, with Woodstock being the largest TRANSPORTATION • Tillsonburg is serviced by a network of well-maintained roads including Provincial Highway #3, which connects Windsor to Fort Erie • Tillsonburg is located approximately 25 kilometres south of Highway #401, Ontario's major service highway extending from Windsor to Quebec • Passenger rail services are provided by Via Rail in the City of Woodstock and Ingersoll • Freight transportation is provided by both Canadian National and Canadian Pacific, which have main lines running through Oxford County • Major international flight services are available within a one hour drive at Toronto's Pearson International Airport • Tillsonburg has an airport just north of the Town that has port of entry status and provides service for non-scheduled, charter, and private flights EMPLOYMENT • In the past, the flue-cured tobacco industry was an economic focal point and a major factor contributing to the growth of Tillsonburg • Today, Tillsonburg has a well developed business core and a diversified economic base including auto parts, agricultural industries, metal fabrication, food processing and a growing service sector • Tillsonburg is part of Oxford County, which is home to a thriving agricultural sector, with 2,342 farms and over 100 commercial and agri-business ventures METRIX Realty 6roup 10 Tillsonburg Public Library 2 Library Lane, Tillsonburg AREA/NEIGHBOURHOOD SUMMARY File#26691 The subject property is situated in the central sector of Tillsonburg.

METRIX Realty 6roup 26 Tillsonburg Public Library 2 Library Lane, Tillsonburg SECTION 7 -HIGHEST AND BEST USE File#26691 Real estate is valued in terms of its Highest and Best Use. Highest and Best Use is defined as: The reasonably probable and legal use of vacant land or an improved property, which is physically possible, appropriately supported, financially feasible, and that results in the highest value. The four criteria the highest and best use must meet are legal permissibility, physical possibility, financial feasibility, and maximum profitability. Source: The Dictionary of Real Estate Appraisal Fourth Edition, 2002 Appraisal Institute To properly analyse highest and best use, two determinations must be made. Firstly, the highest and best development of the site as though vacant and available for use is made. Second, the highest and best use of the property as improved is analysed and estimated. The highest and best use of both the land as vacant and the property as improved must meet the four aforementioned criteria. Of the uses that satisfy the first three tests, the use that produces the highest price or value consistent with the rate of return warranted by the market is the maximally productive use. SUBJECT PROPERTY-As THOUGH VACANT Real estate as valued in terms of its Highest and Best Use for the land or a site, as though vacant, is defined as: "Among all reasonable, alternative uses, the use that yields the highest present land value, after payments are made for labour, capital, and coordination. The use of a property based on the assumption that the parcel of land is vacant or can be made vacant by demolishing any improvements." Source: The Dictionary of Real Estate Appraisal Fourth Edition, 2002 Appraisal Institute Given that the purpose of this appraisal is to estimate the Current Market Value of the subject building only, the land component of the subject property was not considered. Therefore, an estimate as to the Highest and Best Use of land was not completed. METRIX Realty Group 28 Tillsonburg Public Library 2 Library Lane, Tillsonburg File#26691 • While the subject building is located in a primarily commercial neighbourhood the subject building is intended for a public institutional use. The large primary space with a high ceiling clearance and little office space may limit its use as a retail shopping or office space. These physical features designed for institutional uses, may limit the buildings marketability to a small market of commercial end users. A commercial end user may have to commit to a substantial investment reconfigure the building for retail or office uses. FINANCIALLY FEASIBLE • Once the physically possible and legally permissible potential land uses have been determined, the next step in estimating the highest and best use is to determine which of these uses is likely to produce an income, or return, equal to or greater than the amount needed to satisfy operating expenses, financial obligations, and capital amortization. Financially feasible essentially refers to legal uses that are physically possible and have a sufficient demand to produce a positive return. • The subject property is located in an area characterized by primarily commercial uses. • The subject market for those uses that are Legally Permissible is fair. • Due to the physical features of the institutional subject building and its location in an established commercial neighbourhood, its marketability may be limited and potential lease rates or selling prices may have to be adjusted lower to entice investment from potential commercial users. MAXIMALLY PRODUCTIVE • Of the financially feasible uses, the use that produces the highest residual land value consistent with the rate of return warranted by the market for that use is the highest and best use. COMMENTARY It is our opinion that the Highest and Best Use of the subject property is a continuation of its institutional use. METRIX Realty Group 30 Tillsonburg Public Library 2 Library Lane, Tillsonburg File#26691 The Direct Comparison (Market) Approach is based on the proposition that an informed purchaser would pay no more for a property than the cost of acquiring an equally desirable substitute property with the same or similar utility. This approach is applicable when an active market provides sufficient quantities of reliable data that can be verified from authoritative sources. On the other hand, the Direct Comparison Approach is relatively unreliable in an inactive market or in an estimate of value related to properties for which no real comparable sales are available. Given that properties in the Leasehold Interest do not generally sell on the open market, and the unique physical nature of the institutional building in a commercial neighbourhood, no comparable properties exist. As a result, the Direct Comparison Approach was not utilized. The Income Approach concerns the present value of any future benefits of property ownership. Future benefits are generally indicated by the amount of net income the property will produce during its remaining useful life. After comparison of interest yields and characteristics of risk for investments of similar types and classes of property, this net income is then capitalized into an estimate of value. The subject Leasehold Estate Interest is owner-occupied. The Income Approach was not considered relevant and was not utilized. COST APPROACH This approach to valuation typically estimates the current market value of a property through a process of estimating the market value of the land as if vacant, and then adding to that the cost of constructing the building and site improvements and arranging tenancies, and deducting an estimate of accrued depreciation, if applicable, where depreciation should include physical deterioration, external obsolescence and functional obsolescence. Based on the subject Tenns of Reference, the market value of the subject land, as if vacant, was not estimated within this analysis. The appraiser's estimate of Current Market Value is based upon the Marshall & Swift Valuation Service Handbook, a recognized method of cost estimating. The appraiser has used the following to estimate the cost of the subject building and site improvements and depreciation values: METRIX Realty Group 32 Tillsonburg Public Library 2 Library Lane, Tillsonburg Functional Obsolescence File#26691 Functional obsolescence is the adverse effect on value resulting from design defects that impair the structure's usefulness. It can be caused by changes over the years that have made some aspects of the structure, material, or design obsolete by current standards. Inspection of the building an review of the plans and specifications for the subject building reveal modern features, good quality library facilities but lacks in functional office space and good quality office finish for private office uses. The large open concept floor layout with high ceiling heights may also limit it functional utility for any uses other than institutional uses. The open space may be desirable to those wanting to custom their own space; however it is the appraiser's opinion that the cost to do so may be significant and affect the marketability of the space. As a result, a functional depreciation level of 20% was warranted. External (Economic) Obsolescence External (economic) obsolescence is the adverse effect on value resulting from influences outside the property itself. These include changing property or land use patterns and adverse economic climates. Current market conditions within the overall retail real estate market were considered to be relatively stable. The subject building is located in an area of established retail, commercial and office uses with buildings designed for these purposes. A purchaser utilizing the subject building may only consider utilizing the subject building for retail or commercial uses at a discounted rate to accommodate a redesign of the building for these uses. Given that the property is considered to be institutional in nature and located in an established commercial retail neighbourhood, and has limited functionality for various other uses, an allowance for external obsolescence of approximately 15% was warranted. TOTAL DEPRECIATION Therefore, the total accrued depreciation for the proposed subject building and site improvements is 60%, rounded. The following tables summarize the criteria used in forming a replacement cost estimates of the subject property. METRIX Realty 6roup 34 Tillsonburg Public Library 2 Library Lane, Tillsonburg File#26691 SECTION 9 -SUMMARY AND FINAL ESTIMATE OF VALUE As a result of our investigation, and after taking all pertinent factors into consideration, it is our opinion that the estimated Current Market Value of the subject building, excluding land, in the "Leasehold Estate Interest", as if free and clear of any financing and on an all cash basis, as of October 23rd, 2012, is: FOUR HUNDRED AND SIXTY SEVEN THOUSAND DOLLARS ($467,000) The undersigned reserves the right to revise the opinions set out herein, including the final estimate of value, in light of any facts and conditions that become known subsequent to the date of the report, which have an impact on the conclusions reached.

PURPOSE To provide Council with information requested as a result of the Council Meeting of September 10, 2012. HISTORY & DISCUSSION The Town of Tillsonburg, reviewed an application for a Proposal to open and operate a Class 'A' Bingo Hall at Lisgar Heights Plaza, 230 Lisgar Avenue, Tillsonburg, Ontario at the September 1 0, 2012 Cou neil Meeting. A Report was brought before Council by the Director of Development and Communication Services. Council passed a resolution to allow the public to speak to the matter and Mr Robert Dowd, the applicant was invited to speak to the Application. Mr. Bruce Kendrick, Secretary to the Tillsonburg Lion's Club appeared before council and spoke against the proposal. The Lions indicate that if the Class 'A' Bingo hall was approved by Council they will lose 33% of their base and this will affect their ability to donate funds to the community. He also commented that in their opinion the Town could not support a Class 'A' Bingo Hall. Mr. Doug Dawson also appeared before Council to speak against the application. He noted that bingo is gambling and gambling addiction is a serious issue which should be considered when deciding this matter. liPage Development and Communication Services 2012 CONSULTATION/COMMUNICATION The City of Woodstock approved an application from Mr. Dowd to open a Class 'A' Bingo Hall in the City of Woodstock at their council meeting of Sept. 6, 2012 and Norfolk County approved a similar application from Mr. Dowd for an operation in Simcoe Ontario at their council meeting on August 21, 2012. FINANCIAL IMPACT/FUNDING SOURCE Proposal indicates an estimated $35,000 income for the Town as well as an increase in property taxes as the vacancy rate for the plaza will be substantially reduced.

AND FURTHER RESOLVE THAT the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario be notified of Council's decision. PURPOSE To provide information for Council's review for the proposal for a new Class 'A' Bingo Hall in the Town of Tillsonburg in accordance with the provisions set out by the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario in order to make a recommendation to either approve or not approve the proposal to the Registrar of Alcohol and Gaming. HISTORY & DISCUSSION The Town of Tillsonburg, in conjunction with the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO) in March 2012 received a Proposal to open and operate a Class 'A' Bingo Hall at Lisgar Heights Plaza, 230 Lisgar Avenue, Tillsonburg, Ontario. See APPENDIX A to view proposal New Class 'A' Bingo Hall Proposal Mr. Robert Dowd, Chatham, Ontario, as a registered gaming supplier and owner and operator of two bingo facilities in Ontario, has submitted the proposal to be located at 230 Lisgar Avenue in the Lisgar Heights Plaza. The proposed operation will be open 7 days a week with one session each evening at 7:00 PM. The number of sessions will be increased if the demand warrants. The approximate prize money would be $3,000 to $4,000 per session of which about $2,500 will be a fixed amount with the remaining variable depending on the progressive style game being offered. The proposed new bingo facility will offer seating for approximately 240 patrons, but estimated attendance is around 100 patrons per session. liPage Development and Communication Services 2012 See APPENDIX B for letters submitted Residents Remarks: Resident remarked that the Bingo hall would be good for the area and would provide employment opportunities and improve the plaza with the addition of this business. This person stated that Tillson burg should encourage local businesses to locate in Tillson burg. Another resident was concerned that it would be detrimental to the community to have a dedicated bingo hall in this area. He states that many of the higher density apartments in the area house low income wage earners, single mothers and widows and the proximity of this bingo hall could encourage addiction to bingo. He also notes that our food bank and soup kitchens are running at full capacity and social agencies are stretched to their limits. He believes that the negative impacts outweigh any positive benefits to the community. The Bingo Country operators oppose this proposal as they are concerned that this opening will further dilute the already poor attendance of the Stratford, London and St. Thomas Region Bingo Halls. The Lion's letter indicates that in their opinion this Bingo Hall would drain the community, would create social problems and would not be in the best interest of the community. They state that the Town would lose charitable dollars and that the business model in the proposal is unworkable. Currently the participants at the Lions Bingo spend an average of $35.00 per night and the proposal suggests that participants would spend an average of $60.00 to $70.00 per event. They also note that in order to support the applicant's numbers they would need 1 00 players attending seven days a week. The Lion's state that they earn and contribute a great deal more than this proposal suggests to the community on a yearly basis. The Lion's letter also referred to the lack of parking in the area to support such an event. The applicant did provide two parking plans to address future parking needs. The parking issue is a planning matter and would be addressed at the next stage when reviewing the site plan documents. Chief Building Official: The building department have not received any applications relating to a Bingo Hall at this location. To confirm the parking provisions for this site we will require the applicant to identify all of the current uses in the building including the areas of each space/use. Section 5.20.2.1 and Table 5.20.2.1 in the Zoning By-Law outline the parking standards. County of Oxford Community and Strategic Planning Office has no comment on the Bingo Hall application. County of Oxford Social Services Office offered no comments but rather statistical data for review. Oxford County Social Services Office provided statistical data regarding the Lisgar Avenue Area that was drawn from Statistics Canada, 2006 Census. An estimated 2340 people live in the Lisgar Ave area, comprising 15% of Tillsonburg's population. The Lisgar Ave Area used to collect census data is bordered by North St.,Tillson Ave, Broadway and Concession Street. Oxford social services noted that when interpreting Social Risk Impact (SRI) factors, knowing the community as a whole is important. It should be noted that the Tillson Avenue Area has a higher percentage of seniors apartment buildings which can impact three of the 9 factors used to calculate the SRI (mobility in the past year, home ownership and government 31Page Development and Communication Services 2012 declining attendance and revenues to charities. By synchronizing efforts in delivering enhanced customer service, a place where players want to spend time with a variety of new products and technology, the entertainment experience will change. The customer, whether playing games, purchasing products or eating, will spend money and both charities and halls will benefit from the overall revenue. Electronic bingo has also been introduced to revitalize the bingo industry. The primary market area as delineated by a 10 km radius from the proposed new location is well beyond the primary market areas for the closest existing bingo halls, which are in London and St. Thomas. The study indicated that there would be no affect on these businesses. The proposed new facility may have a potential impact on the existing Tillsonburg Lions Club bingo which is held .5 km from the proposed site. This bingo facility is however a Class C hall operating only one session once a week and these proceeds are not shared by other Tillsonburg based charity organizations. The Class 'A' Bingo event would give many Tillsonburg based charities, including the Tillsonburg Lions Club, if they decide to participate, access to fund raising revenues. Fourteen local charities and service groups have expressed support and an interest in participating in a commercial bingo hall. The list can be found under No. 5 of the application proposal. See APPENDIX E to view Market Study Summary: In reviewing the proposal, the AGCO states that the Municipal Council may: a. Approve the proposal. b. Not approve the proposal. c. Hold a public meeting to obtain further information upon which to base their decision. d. Require additional information. In light of the foregoing, it is the opinion of staff that the applicant's proposal be approved. The proposed use complies with the Towns current zoning by-law and the County of Oxford Official Plan. The proposed bingo hall will have to comply with all Building code requirements The proposed use should not cause an adverse impact on adjacent property owners and can be considered desirable development of the subject property.

Further resolve that Council receive this report for information purposes." PURPOSE 1. This is a follow up to a request from Council that staff provides a report regarding a process to deal with the issue of the dumping of garbage without bag tags in the alley ways in Tillsonburg. HISTORY & DISCUSSION 2. In researching this topic the issue regarding illegal dumping became most predominant in alleys once the County of Oxford implemented the bag tag program in 2002. 3. Currently garbage is picked up by the County of Oxford's Waste Management contractor including alleys if placed at the edge of the alley and the bags are properly tagged. It has been an ongoing problem that bags are placed for pick up without tags and therefore are left behind. Staff has advised that this activity is most predominant on Fox Alley from Baldwin to Ridout and Cat Alley from Oxford to l!Page Development and Communication Services 2012 6. Although the by-law is in place and fines are an available avenue for by-law enforcement, illegal dumping continues to be difficult to enforce for the following reasons: i) In order to notify or lay charges on a particular individual Town staff need to observe the actual dumping taking place. If dumping is completed by use of a vehicle the license plate could be tracked and action taken, however, if dumping is completed by an individual on foot this could become complicated and in most cases would be difficult to apprehend and may require police involvement. Currently the Town does not have the available staffing to monitor or patrol the alleys on a regular basis in order to provide this level of service. ii) Complaints or a tip from the public is another avenue for enforcement staff to investigate. Staff in the past have followed up on complaints and have been successful on occasion in gaining compliance, however, in most cases the public cannot provide enough detailed information in order to follow up or lay charges. Tips provided from the public must be solid in order to accuse and lay charges and the complainant must be willing to attend court should a fine be challenged. iii) In the past it has been suggested that staff dig through garbage to try and find tips related to ownership. Once again this has been scrutinized legally if evidence found in the actual garbage is linked to the actual person(s) dumping. Staff has also refused work due to the unknown safety concerns related to digging though garbage as it relates to the Occupational Health and Safety Act. 7. Based on the difficulty of enforcement the untagged garbage continues to be a weekly issue. Currently the Works Department completes a regular weekly patrol of Fox and Cat Alley on Monday's to monitor garbage in these areas and will pick up any untagged or abandoned garbage that is located on Town property/alley. Works Department staff has advised that these patrols takes approximately 3f4 hour; and anywhere from fifteen to fifty bags are collected on a weekly basis. The garbage collected is taken to the Works yard and is disposed of in a dumpster. The cost for this service including tipping fees is approximately $10,352/year ($199.06/week). This was implemented to ensure that the Town remains clean and free of any potential health concerns. 8. POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS: 3jPage i) Deleting the bag tag program would permit all garbage to be collected. ii) By-Law Enforcement Patrols -This would require increased staffing and multiple hours to try and observe the actual violation. iii) Add additional "No Dumping" signage and incorporate/add the fine amounts onto the signage. iv) Increase public awareness by sending out notification to problem areas and place ads in the local paper. v) Investigate the option to require owners/landlords to provide private dumpsters for businesses and apartments in problem areas. vi) Provide weekly Works Department patrols to ensure that alleys remain clean.

Further resolve "The Town retain the Norfolk Oxford Municipal Drain through Station 000 to 160, Station 575 to 770 and recommend the abandonment of the Norfolk Oxford Municipal Drain from Station 160 to 575 and Station 770 to 1 +180 as per the K. Smart Engineering report dated October gth 2012." PURPOSE Pursuant to Section 84 of the Drainage Act, the Town of Tillson burg intends to abandon a portion of the Norfolk Oxford Municipal Drain within the limits of the Corporation of the Town of Tillsonburg. The Town appointed an independent Drainage Engineer from K. Smart Associates Ltd of Kitchener for the purposes of abandonment of the Municipal drain as per the Act. HISTORY & DISCUSSION As a result of the construction of the Harvest Subdivision Development, the municipality intends to abandon a portion of the existing Norfolk Oxford Municipal Drain and replace it with a new storm drainage system in conjunction with development agreements and approved subdivision engineering drawings. This portion of the storm drainage system was approved under the provisions of the Ontario Water Resources Act. The Norfolk- Oxford Drain was constructed under the Drainage Act by a Middleton Township. liP age ) ABANDONMENT REPORT for NORFOLK-OXFORD MUNICIPAL DRAIN Town of Tillsonburg County of Oxford Date: October 9, 2012 File No. 11-019 K.

The Town received an objection to the abandonment from Norfolk County. In January 2012 the Town ofTillsonburg appointed K. Smart Associates to prepare a report under Section 84(3) to address the abandonment of the Norfolk-Oxford Municipal Drain. DRAIN HISTORY Original Construction The Norfolk-Oxford Municipal Drain was constructed under a report prepared by John B. Dodd OLS, McDowell & Jewitt, dated December 14, 1962 which was adopted by Middleton Township Bylaw 70 on March 8, 1963. The report was prepared for the Township of Middleton in Norfolk County on a petition by the Department of Highways Ontario (DHO) for improved drainage and outlet for Highway 3 in Middleton Township and to the west to the CP Rail crossing in Dereham Township, Oxford County. In 1962 Highway 3 followed Simcoe Street into Tillsonburg. The report provided for approximately 4000' (1200m) of21" (575mm) to 18" (450mm) concrete pipe storm drain with sealed joints along the north limits of the Highway 3 right of way from the east side of the CP Rail crossing easterly (upstream) to the head of the drain approximately 1800' (550m) east of Mall Road (boundary between Oxford and Norfolk Counties). At the CP Rail crossing the outlet for the drain continued north along the east side of the CP Rail right of way for approximately 2500' (170m) to an outlet into the Big Otter Creek floodplain. The pipe drain north consisted of24" (600mm) diameter concrete sewer pipe with sealed joints. The plan for the Norfolk-Oxford Municipal Drain indicated that the watershed for the proposed drain would extend along Highway 3 for 4000' east of the head of the drain to Jackson Sideroad in Middleton Township, Norfolk County. The watershed plan also indicated that a small area of the frontage of all properties fronting on both sides of Highway 3 from the CP Rail crossing easterly to Jackson Sideroad was within the watershed of the proposed drain though no affected watershed areas were noted in the assessment schedule. The report noted that if any owner fronting on the Highway wished to connect to the drain for a storm drain outlet that permission would be required from municipal council, County Health Unit and DHO and a formula was provided for a payment to DHO for such connection. Research was not undertaken to determine if any of the affected municipalities have any record of subsequent connections to the drain as outlined in the Engineer's report. There is no record of any subsequent Engineer's reports on the Norfolk-Oxford Municipal Drain. The copy of the report that was reviewed came from Norfolk County. In this copy the assessment schedule for Middleton Township had been updated at some point in time to reflect the current parcels fronting on Highway 3. K SMART ASSOCIATES LTD Email: info@ksmart.ca www.ksmart.ca Norfolk-Oxford Municipal Drain Town of Tillson burg - 3 -October 9, 20I2 The Norfolk-Oxford Municipal Drain remains in place in the north part of the Simcoe Street road allowance from Mall Road westerly. This length of the drain would provide an outlet for the portion of the Simcoe Street road allowance that is north of the travelled portion of Simcoe Street as this area is lower than the travelled portion of Simcoe Street. The storm drain for Westtown Line north of Simcoe Street passes over the Norfolk-Oxford Municipal Drain and is connected to the new Simcoe Street drain. The design for the Simcoe Street storm drain included the subwatershed area in the road allowance north of the travelled part of the road. Therefore if the north part of the road allowance is improved in the future surface drainage can be directed to an outlet in the Simcoe Street storm drain instead of using the Norfolk-Oxford Drain. Tillsonburg -new development Until recently the parcel of land in Tillsonburg between Potters Road and Simcoe Street (Wilmer Atkinson parcel on I962 watershed plan) was farm land except for the McDonald's restaurant lot (Area I on the attached plan) in the northeast comer of CP Rail and Simcoe Street. The storm drain for the McDonald's lot is connected to the Norfolk-Oxford Drain. The residential lot in the northwest comer of Westtown Line and Simcoe Street was shown on the I962 watershed plan. In 2009/20 I 0 a new development for the "Harvest Retirement Community" was proposed for Area 4 and 5 on the attached plan. A new church was proposed for Area 3. Harvest A venue was proposed through the Area 3 and 4 development from Westtown Line westerly and northerly to Potters Road. A storm water management pond for the new development was proposed on the south side of Potters Road (Area 5) with outlet for the pond into the Norfolk-Oxford Municipal Drain approximately 20m south of Potters Road. Drainage plans for the new development indicate that the Norfolk-Oxford Drain will be rerouted easterly in a drainage easement along the south limits of the new church parcel (Area 3) to an outlet into the storm drain proposed for Harvest A venue. The Harvest A venue storm drain will outlet into the storm water managment pond in Area 5. The first phase of the Harvest Retirement Community has been developed and the road and drainage works noted above have been constructed. CURRENT STATUS OF NORFOLK-OXFORD MUNICIPAL DRAIN After the Norfolk-Oxford Municipal Drain was adopted by Middleton Township Bylaw 7D each municipality in which the drain was located was responsible for the drain in accordance with the provisions of the Middleton Bylaw and Section 74 of the Drainage Act. It has been noted in drainage case law that even though the I962 Engineer's report did not specify a working area or easement for the drain, an unregistered easement to each municipality does exist along the route of the Norfolk-Oxford Drain. The Harvest Retirement Community Storm Water Management Report noted that the Town would prefer to assume responsibility for the Norfolk-Oxford Municipal Drain and had initiated proceedings for abandonment of the drain under the Drainage Act. This statement is not a correct understanding of the status of a drain under the Drainage Act. The Town of Tillson burg is currently I 00% responsible for and in control ofthe Norfolk-Oxford Drain within the Town boundary. Ifthe drain is abandoned of status under the Drainage Act then the Town has no control or responsibility for the drain on private property. The Storm Water Managment Report did note that the Town will be securing easements for the drain. Such easements are necessary if the drain is abandoned of status under the Drainage Act so that the Town can retain control over the Norfolk-Oxford Drain on private property. 1\server\data\2011111-019\Engineering\Report\12-10-09 Norfolk-Oxford Drain 11-019 report.doc Norfolk-Oxford Municipal Drain Town of Tillson burg Station 575 to 770 - 5 -October 9, 2012 This length of the drain currently provides outlet for the storm drainage system on the McDonald's lot and the north part of the Simcoe Street Road allowance. This length of the drain should not be abandoned of status under the Drainage Act unless the Town first obtains an easement over this portion of the drain. If the drain is not abandoned the Town may wish to have a report prepared under Section 76 of the Act so that future maintenance on the drain or the drain outlet can be assessed to the lands and roads contributing to this length of the drain. Station 770 to 1 + 180 This length of the drain only provides outlet for the north part of the Simcoe Street Road allowance and should be abandoned of status under the Drainage Act. The above is the extent of the obligation of the Town ofTillsonburg with respect to the Norfolk-Oxford Drain. The following recommendations for the upstream portion of the drain are suggestions only to the other municipalities as this report is not applicable to these municipalities. Township of Norwich Station 1+180 to 1+435 This length of the drain only provides outlet for the north part of the Simcoe Street Road allowance and could be abandoned of status under the Drainage Act. Norfolk County The objection raised by Norfolk County is not applicable to abandonment proceedings in the Town of Tillsonburg since lands and roads in Norfolk County no longer use the Norfolk-Oxford Municipal Drain in Tillsonburg for an outlet. If Norfolk County wishes to have a secure outlet for the Norfolk-Oxford Municipal Drain in Norfolk County they have the following options: • Establish a mutual agreement with Oxford County for the use of the Oxford County Simcoe Street storm drain as an outlet for the Norfolk-Oxford Municipal Drain in Norfolk County • Petition for an outlet under Section 4 of the Drainage Act • Appoint an Engineer under Section 78 of the Drainage Act for a new report on the Norfolk- Oxford Drain in Norfolk County If Norfolk County wishes to assess future maintenance cost to the affected lands and roads then a new report should be prepared under Section 76 or 78 due to the changes in the drain watershed. REPORT COST The cost of this report is $2,500 and is assessed to the Town of Tillsonburg. This assessment of cost does not supersede any agreement the Town may have with others for the final levy of the report cost. \\server\data\2011\11-019\Engineering\Report\12-10-09 Norfolk-Oxford Drain 11-019 report.doc \ NORFOLK-OXFORD DRAIN REMOVED BECrn.CYJ.NQAllONS Em NQRFOLK-OXEQRp NYNIQPJ.'

FROM: Kathleen Musselman, MLEO, Municipal By-law Enforcement Officer Randy Vince, CRS-I, Roads Manager Geno Vanhaelewyn, CBCO, A.-Director of Development & Communications S.T.Lund, P.Eng., Director of Operations SUBJECT: TRAFFIC BYLAW CONSOLIDATION REPORT. RECOMMENDATIONS "Resolve that Council receives Operations Services Report OPS12-18- Traffic Bylaw Consolidation Report." Further that "the proposed consolidated traffic bylaw be made available to the public for 30 day comment." PURPOSE To review Traffic bylaw 2997 with amendments and consolidate into a new traffic bylaw including any proposed changes. HISTORY 8r. DISCUSSION Traffic bylaw 2997 as amended was prepared in 2002. A number of amendments and changes to traffic signage, parking etc have occurred since then and are summarized in the attached document" Amendments". In terms of proposed additions, a number of definitions have been added to clarify the bylaw. In terms of on street parking and stopping restrictions, a number of locations have been added including Quarter Town Line Road, which was recently reconstructed and widened slightly for the same use and capacity. Other proposed changes have been noted in the attachment "Traffic and Parking Bylaw" and as further described below. l!Page The proposed changes to the bylaw in more detail are based on the following: No StoPPing 1. Quarter Town Line Road. -Over the last decade this road has been reconstructed to allow for two lanes of traffic and turn lanes. Between intersections the road will support one lane of parking and it proposed to create this on the east side from Baldwin Street northerly to the north town limit except at intersections and either side of North street to allow for turning lanes. Safety concerns with traffic and parking adjacent to Msgr. O'Neil School are of particular concern and keeping parking on one side will not promote traffic weaving from side to side if the parking lanes are changed from one side to another. It is proposed to create parking on the east side to support Msgr. O'Neil School. A sight line issue with South Ridge School on the west side for SOm north of Southridge Rd. has no stopping proposed. 2. Park Avenue -Due to the narrow width of Park Avenue from Concession to Gowrie St. no stopping is proposed. 3. Tillson Avenue, Brock St-Oxford St. -West side -Too narrow given the current lane configuration. 4. Tillson Avenue, Fourth St-10m North of Fourth St. -West side -sightline issue. Prohibited Parking Refer to schedule 2 for the list of streets of the proposed changes and reasons. The existing prohibited parking on Glendale Drive, Victoria St. to Poplar Drive (both sides) has been requested by the public to be removed (allowed). Staff have reviewed this request and recommend that parking be allowed after reconstruction of the street which is planned for 2013 (Phase 1) and 2015 (Phase 2) subject to Council approval. Once reconstructed, the street will be able to support two lanes of traffic and parking lane (north side). In the meantime, it is recommended to remain prohibited since it would make the lanes on the narrow side and difficult should two large vehicles try to pass adjacent to a parked car. Loading Zones Refer to schedule 4 for the list of streets of the proposed changes and reasons. Lower Speed Limits Schedule 17b-New schedule to record lower speed limits( <50km/h) which are currently posted in the field. 31Page Summarv Staff have circulated the proposed consolidated Bylaw to Tillsonburg Polices Services and any comments have been incorporated. Staff recommend the proposed consolidated traffic bylaw made available to the public for 30 day comment. Subject to comments received, it is planned to bring the traffic bylaw back for final approval.

HISTORY &. DISCUSSION For many years there have been large letters placed on the side of a berm along the main fa<;ade of the Tillsonburg Cemetery. These letters spelled out the words "Tillsonburg Cemetery" and were made of concrete shapes. Parks and Recreation staff have been discussing options to rehabilitate the sign for over a year including adjusting the shape of the berm and adjusting the lettering. The letters have deteriorated over the years to the point where the crumbling cement was not worth repainting again. The berm is not of a consistent height and angle, so the final few letters are not properly visible, and not at all when there is snow. ljPage CONSULTATION/COMMUNICATION N/A FINANCIAL IMPACT /FUNDING SOURCE The staff time to remove the old letters and rehabilitate the area, and also to design and fully implement the sign replacement will be in the range of 60-75 hours. To date, about 2/3 of this time has been expended. The cost for the sign, metal, cement, and planting materials not already on hand will be approximately $3,500. These amounts are included in the 2012 cemetery wage, supplies and subcontractor allocations. PREPARED BY: Rick Cox, Director of Parks & Recreation APPROVED BY: David Samis, A/CAO DATE AUTHORED: November 14, 2012 3jPage PRS 12-19 Amended Agreement for Concession Operations DATE: TO: FROM: SUBJECT: November 26, 2012 David Samis, Interim CAO Rick Cox, Director of Parks & Recreation PRS 12-19 AMENDED AGREEMENT FOR CONCESSION OPERATIONS RECOMMENDATIONS RESOLVE THAT Council receive Report PRS 2012-19 Amended Agreement for Concession Operations, as information; FURTHER RESOLVE THAT the Agreement between the Town and Beres Catering be amended to reduce the monthly rental fee for the months of April through August in 2013 and 2014 to $300 plus applicable taxes. PURPOSE This report will provide Council with an explanation of the request by Beres Catering to amend their Agreement with the Town for the provision of concession operations at the Arena. HISTORY & DISCUSSION The Town entered into an Agreement with Beres Catering, effective October 2011. The Agreement was authorized in August 2011 and states, in part, that: During the term of this Agreement the Operator shall pay a monthly rental fee as agreed of $600.00 plus applicable taxes. Having operated the Concession for a full season, Beres Catering requested a reduction in their fees to reflect the very minimal sales activity for the months of April through August. The request was to eliminate the rental fee for those months for the entire duration of the contract. After discussion within the management team, staff replied with an alternative position, namely that of reducing the rent by 50% for the months of April through August for the remainder of the contract. Beres Catering has accepted this position, resulting in the following proposed amendment to the Agreement: liP age PRS 12-18 Toboggan Hill Agreement DATE: November 12, 2012 TO: David Samis, Interim CAO FROM: Rick Cox, Director of Parks & Recreation SUBJECT: PRS 12-18 TOBOGGAN HILL AGREEMENT RECOMMENDATIONS RESOLVE THAT Council receive Report PRS 12-18 Toboggan Hill Agreement for information purposes. PURPOSE This report will provide Council with an update on the status of the existing Toboggan Hill Agreement with the Tillsonburg Golf and Country Club (TGCC), and of the cost and staff time requirements for implementing the agreement for 2012-2013. HISTORY & DISCUSSION The Town entered into a Lease Agreement with the TGCC in December 2005. The new Agreement between the Town and the TGCC which was authorized in September 2012 states that the existing Toboggan Hill Agreement will remain in effect. The Toboggan Hill Agreement requires that: • the Town pay the TGCC an annual rent payment of $1.00 • the Town indemnify the TGCC of any liability with respect to the Hill • the Town provide proof of insurance coverage of a minimum $10Million • the Town monitor the Hill, place & maintain any safety fencing and signage required, and repair any damage to the grounds resulting from tobogganing or associated use. • Both parties meet each April to review the previous season and address any concerns. The Toboggan Hill Agreement renews automatically from year to year, unless the Town and the TGCC agree at the April meeting not to continue, or that either party provide the other written notice by September 1 of each year that they do not intend to continue with the agreement for the following winter. The Parks team spends approximately 30 staff hours getting the area set up before winter and cleaned up after the winter. During the winter, approximately 40 staff hours are ljPage Page '2 ot 6 ~ Schools 0 ~ Show All 0 J Demographics lfhe following demographic information will help you get a taste of the neighbourhood where this listing is located.

PURPOSE Staff are recommending to proceed to sell the surplus parcel of land on Glendale Drive, shown on the attached map, to the land owner who owns the abutting land at 63 Glendale Drive. HISTORY & DISCUSSION Council will recall that at the Council meeting of November 12, 2012, it passed By-Law 3668 to authorize the sale of Part 2, Part of Block A, Plan M-68 to the abutting land owner at 65 Glendale Drive. As a result of this authorization the neighbour at 63 Glendale Drive has approached the town to purchase a much smaller land locked piece along the ravine to the rear of their property. This piece as well has been used and maintained by the land owners over a number of years, is not a viable building lot on its own and would be of no use to anyone other than the abutting land owner. The property owner has provided an agreement of purchase and sale in the amount of $300.00 and a Reference Plan indicating this parcel as Part 3 on Reference Plan 8862. Staff are satisfied that this is a fair price for this parcel given the history and that all required documents have been provided. FINANCIAL IMPACT/FUNDING SOURCE Any funds generated from this activity would be allocated to reserves, and costs with regards to the property sale would be borne by the purchaser (i.e. survey, reports and legal costs).

Mayor -John Lessif Clerk -Donna Wilson File No. A-09/12 TOWN OF TILLSONBURG COMMITTEE OF ADJUSTMENT DECISION OF COMMITTEE Page 1 of2 WE, the undersigned members of the Town ofTillsonburg Committee of Adjustment, do hereby attest that the following was the decision reached by us at the meeting held on Monday November 26, 2012. OWNERS/APPLICANTS: Glendonna Corporation Ltd. 401-35 Church Street, Toronto ON M5E 1T3 LOCATION: AGENT: Kevin Wilson 1904-907 Beach Ave. Vancouver, ON V6Z 2R3 Part of Lot 34, 35, 36, Plan M25, municipally known as 210-230 Lis gar Ave, Town ofTillsonburg, County of Oxford. PURPOSE OF APPLICATION: An application has been received seeking relief of section 5.20.2 (Motor Vehicle Parking Standards) to permit 77 parking spaces in place of required 94 parking spaces to facilitate the addition of an assembly use within the existing commercial Plaza. DECISION: APPROVED That the Town ofTillsonburg Committee of Adjustment approve Application File A 09/12, submitted by Glendonna Corporation for lands described as Part of Lots 34, 35, 36, Plan M25 in the Town ofTillsonburg as it relates to: 1. Relief from Section 5.20.2., Motor Vehicle Parking Standards, to reduce the number of required parking spaces from 94 to 77 to facilitate an assembly use within the existing commercial plaza, subject to the following conditions: i) A building permit for the proposed assembly use shall be issued within one year of the date of the Committee's decision; ii) The applicant enter into an agreement with the Town to construct appropriate fencing on the parking lot boundary adjacent to residential properties, and provide a 1.0 m buffer and safety bollard between the rear of the plaza and the parking aisle. Members concurring in above ruling: John Lessif Mark Renaud David Beres Mel Getty Marty Klein Chris Rosehart Brian Stephenson Minor Variance Application No.A 09/12 Objection I am appearing as a resident and owner along with my wife Dag of property on 20 Devo:t:tp_.4(.,tl-J Court. I am objecting to the application for Minor Variance to vary the required parkinii(or the proposed Change in Use from Retail to a Bingo Hall. I will be referring to By-Law 3295, and amendments thereto which is the Town's Comprehensive Zoning By-Law passed in April 14th, 2008. Pursuant to the Town's Comprehensive Zoning By-Law definitions: 4.8 "ASSEMBLY HALL", means a building or part of a building in which facilities are provided for such purposes as meetings for civic, educational, political, or social purposes and shall include a banquet hall and private club. However, if we are talking about a Bingo Hall, the correct use is: 4.143 "PLACE OF ENTERTAINMENT", means a motion picture or other theatre, amusement arcade, arena, auditorium, public hall, billiard or pool room, bingo hall, bowling aHey, or dance hall; but does not include any other place of entertainment or amusement otherwise defined or classified herein. Bingo Hall is not specifically defined otherwise. Theref()re ,the~appRcp.tionis.nicorrect.iftfie-usewhiehisbeingappli~d for as a Change in' ·use is aBingoHall With respect to the issue of Legal Nonconforming Status which the Planning Report indicates the subject property enjoys, I would draw the Committees attention to Section 5.21.3 which states: 5.21.3 HOW NON-CONFORMING RIGHTS LOST ---- Non-conforming rights shall be consideredto be exth_lguished in the following situations: (a) where a building or structure containing or otherwise used in connection with a non-conforming use is more than 50% accidentally damaged or demolished and is not repaired and reoccupied within one (1) year; (b) where the non-conforming use is discontinued for a period exceeding six (6) months; The Planning Report indicates the subject building has been vacant for 10 years. spaces in the Interior Sideyard of the building adjacent to a Residentially Zoned Area. Section 5.24.3 does not permit any parking areas within a required Interior sideyard or rearyard of Commercial Developments adjacent to Residential Zones. Therefore th~ prQposedp<trkingspaces-wol.ildnot be permitted. No add-itional parking spaces are· therefore being provided.: In addition, Section 5.14 of By-Law 3295 requires loading zones to be provided separate from parking spaces. These have not been shown on the proposed site plan. At least one loading area of11.5 by _2~Sf~etis to he-proyid~d~. Section 5.24.11 of the By-law requires all motor vehicle parking must be provided on the same lot. The Notice for this hearing states that it is anticipated that parking from the subject site will be displaced onto the adjacent streets. This is clearly not the intent of the Zoning By-Law. This clearly creates a situation which is inappropriate, undesirable and not in the best interests ofthe Public Good. Creating a situation which requires vehicles to park on residential streets in the Lisgar Heights Subdivision which by comment of the Parks and Recreation Staff is already under pressure from events at the Community Centre is inappropriate and undesirable. Devon Court and Alba Ave are particularily vulnerable as it is a quiet area with young children and no sidewalks. -----. --·-----· --------~----------------- Therefore clearly,this application for parking r131iefis.notminor, does not carry outthe ---------- -. intent ofthe ~oni.ng By~L,aw ~t:lciis noj:appq>priate ()r d_esiraqle. Any one ofthesewould require the application not to beC\J>proved. With respect to the issue of Hardship to the owner, opportunites continue to exist to rent out the space for retail which will not have the adverse parking impact that is proposed from this Place of Entertainment. I would ask that I have an opportunity to ask questions or make further submissions as this hearing proceeds. Thank you Committee for giving me this opportunity to make this submission. I am providing a copy of this to the Secretary and would thereby request written notification of the Decision of the Committee. HERITAGE AND BEAUTIFICATION COMMITTEE MINUTES FOR SEPTEMBER 12, 2012 DATE: Wednesday, Sept. 12, 2012 LOCATION: Marwood Lounge, Community Centre TIME: 2:00 P.M. 1. Meeting to Order: called by Chairperson Kathy McCormick at 2:00P.M. 2. Attendance: Donna Peirce, Brian Stephenson, Kathy McCormick, Kelly Batt, Marian Smith, Paul DeCioet, Sue Saelens -All Present 3. Approval of Agenda for Sept. 12 -approved by Donna P and seconded by Sue 5aelens 4. Approval of Minutes from May 9. 2012 meeting -approved by Brian Stephenson and seconded by Marian Smith 5. New Business: a) Horticultural Society Auction and plant sale was very successful and the funds raised go to design and plant flowers in beds found around the Town of Tillsonburg. Members are reminded that meetings are scheduled for the first Tuesday of each month at 7:30 at the Seniors Centre in the Community Centre with speakers and other activities. b) Tillsonburg Tree Planting project report shows that about 13,000 trees have been planted to date. There is a surplus of money in the account with additional funds added from sponsors and money raised for the planting of larger trees. A possible site might be Cadman Park -the idea of planting a combination of larger trees and having children plant the small trees to experience 'live tree planting.' A discussion of tree types-black oak possibly, hardwood trees will grow from broken-off branches so possibly a variety of hardwood trees may be chosen. Looking at the 'trail project' continuation for spring of 2013. Need to clear the grass and vines to prepare for the planting projects in the spring. c) Signage for the covered loads going to Transfer Station {Newell Depot) is up and the wording is identical to that recommended to Council in our Committee's letter and motion, dated May 9. 2012. d) Sue Saelens will formulate a letter to go to Oxford County's Waste Management Calendar asking that the signage at j) Kelly Batt presented a document called "Committee/Staff Liaison Policy" to our members. It outlines the need for staff liaison persons from the Town and Council to Town Committees. Basically the policy establishes the fact that Committee members (volunteers) need guidance, advice, and information from liaison persons. The expertise from liaison representatives helps Committees move in a direction that enables ideas to become projects that are then approved and completed through due process. This policy is a welcome document to all Committees since it outlines the basic direction that Committees can and must follow in order to accomplish their goals. A copy of this document is filed. k) The property recognition project to be tabled for later. Meeting was adjourned at 3:20 p.m. Next Meeting is scheduled for 3:30p.m., Wed., November 21 at the Marwood Lounge in the Community Centre To County Council Woodstock, Ontario November 21, 2013 Attention: Oxford County Waste Management Calendar Committee From: Heritage and Beautification Committee in Tillsonburg RE: This fall our Committee was successful in putting up signage at the Newell Transfer Station in the Tillsonburg area. We were concerned with the spillage of debris along the routes taken by citizens in our area. The signage states that under the Highway Traffic Act, it is the responsibility of persons to secure their loads and if they fail to comply with the law, they can and will face fines if caught. We are hoping that we can add this information to the Calendar if possible so that we can continue educating the public about this responsibility. Our goal is 100°/o compliance with this law. As to the wording in the Calendar, perhaps a contact person is needed from our Committee. Contact person if there are any questions or concerns could be Susan Saelens at (519-409-0385). Thank you for your consideration and help with this matter.

Dr. Kara has done so much to help poor and disadvantaged people, that it would take a lot more than five hundred words to tell about his efforts. This man is so kind and caring, that he goes out of his way to help people. During the earth quake that destroyed Haiti, He called all the patients and people he knew who might have had family members in that country to provide them with kind words and financial help. People from as far away as Kitchener and Tillsonburg. Another thing that he is well known for is his ability to connect and help with young people and especially those who got into trouble and heading down the wrong path. He reached out to them and has done so very successfully over the years. as a result, has preserved and enriched a lot of lives. Another thing that he has been doing for a long time, is to help people without medical coverage. For some people he gives medication free that they need but could not afford to buy it. Often from his sample stock. Also he forfiets his fee for some who are not covered by ohip and who are financially desperate. He also educates victims and families about child abuse, bullying, drug abuse, racism and domestic violence. This gentle human being is never too busy to help his fellow human. Dr. Kara is truly an exemplary canadian. He helped people in several neighborhoods. His work transcends borders, helping in Tillsonburg, Kitchener, Waterloo, cambridge, London and beyond. He transforms the experiences of people whose lives were once characterized by hopelessness, failure and despair, to a place of renewed hope, all because he cares about his fellow canadians. To whom it may concern, It is of my personal opinion that Brad Bennett ofTillsonburg, ON. is a worthy recipient ofthis year's Queen's Diamond Jubilee Medal Award. I hope the efforts of this letter inspire you to be of similar opinion! Brad has been involved in a wide variety of community activities within Tillson burg and the surrounding area for many years. These contributions include, but are limited to: The Woodstock Rotary Club, the Canadian Cancer Society (Past President), the Woodstock Rowing Club, Tillsonburg Youth Basketball, as well as, the Church Council of St. Paul's United Church. Brad currently sits as a member of the Tillsonburg District Memorial Hospital's board of directors, and was previously appointed chairperson (2008-2009). His assiduous attitude toward work and volunteerism showcase a person who appreciates the community he so selflessly serves. Currently practicing law within the firm of Gibson, Bennett, Groom, & Szorenyi he is also very proud to be a contributor of the town's infrastructure. Thanks very much for your time and consideration. Best regards, David Bennett. November 12, 2012 We would like to nominate Steve Kyle and Sonja LaRose for the Queen's Diamond Jubilee Medal. Steve Kyle is the organizer of Tillson burgs Relay for Life event raising funds for the Canadian Cancer Society. Sonja LaRose is the woman behind this man, the secretary, the information tent manager and the team recruitment convenor for Relay for Life. The Tillson burg Relay For Life started in 2002 and this coming year will be the 12th year of this community supported event. This event has surpassed the $2,000,000.00 mark in fund raising for the Canadian Cancer Society thanks to the generosity and efforts of a great many people. The committee its self now has more than 75 members who help to oversee over 400 volunteers. This yearly event is a memorable premiere community experience that not only raises a lot of money for the Cancer Society but enriches the lives of the people in our Community and surrounding areas. With 50% of the money going to research and 30% delegated for patient services Steve, Sonja and the Committee should be assured that they are making a difference in the lives of Tillsonburg and surrounding area families. Steve and Sonja were colleagues at Courtland Public School, Steve was the Principal and Sonja was the secretary. These 2 people have worked together for years and when it came time for retirement they decided they were not yet finished. They took on the commitment of the Tillsonburg Relay for Life and brought their team of colleges to the table to help them. These 2 individuals devote their time year round to this event and make it run so smoothly. Steve Kyle is a family man, a loving husband, father and grandfather. He ensures that members of our community living with cancer have supports and stay connected to help anyway he can. Sonja also a family oriented individual, loving wife, mother and grandmother devotes her time to the administration behind this event. She is the "go to gal" for all information before, during and after the Relay. Sonja keeps the event flowing and everyone on schedule. Steve and Sonja have dedicated a large portion of their life to this cause and it would be such a honour to see them recognized for their efforts although if you knew them as well as we do this is not why they do what they do every year. They really do want to make a difference and in 12 years we believe they have. All you would have to do is attend 1 Tillsonburg Relay for Life That was the message shared during the annual Canadian Cancer Society's Relay For Life, a 12-hour overnight event held Friday and Saturday at Annandale Public School in Tillsonburg. Participants came from all over the region, including London, St. Thomas, Langton, Almyer and Tillsonburg. "There's got to be close to a 1 ,000 or more people here tonight -it's an amazing crowd," said Steve Kyle, organizer for the 2012 Relay For Life. "It's a perfect evening, not too hot or too cold so this is wonderful." Each year, thousands of Canadians are diagnosed with cancer and many more are personally touched by the disease. The Relay for Life brings together survivors, their family and friends, as well as members of the community in the fight against cancer. While there was no theme for this year's event, a number of teams dressed up in costumes and had a theme or a signature look to their group. Teams participating in this year's Relay For Life included the Tumornators, Angels Among Us, Jesse's League, The (ECI) Smurfs, UFC: Ultimate Fight for Cancer, ABC, The God Squad, Gramm a's Girls, The Wild Bunch and Jackie's Butterfly Brigade. Year after year, Kyle said he is amazed at the team spirit and sense of celebration that is showcased at the Relay For Life in Tillsonburg. "You can just feel the energy, it's amazing. We see all these young folks dancing and everybody is having fun," he added. "There's so many amazing displays, and every year it's different," said Kyle. "It's incredible with the imagination and enthusiasm that is put into each team." The event kicked off Friday evening with opening ceremonies that included speeches and welcoming remarks from dignitaries, special guests and organizers, a blessing and prayer as well as the release of pigeons. That was followed by the survivor's victory lap and the Relay For Life team parade around the track at Annandale school. One other highlight Friday night was the lighting of luminaries -an emotional and inspiring ceremony in remembrance of loved ones lost to cancer and those who are currently battling the disease. Kyle noted the tremendous amount of community support that makes the Tillsonburg Relay For Life such a great success. "Support comes from all the communities around because they all contribute," he said. "Courtland gives us tents and London gives us radios to communicate back and forth. We can't express our gratitude to all these people who make a contribution here." Approximately 40 teams, including local businesses and community groups, registered and took part in the 2012 Relay for Life in Tillsonburg. Every year for the past eleven years, the event has raised close to $200,000 locally and this year raised just over $25,000 of that through online donations. To date, more than $2 million dollars has been raised in Tillson burg for the Relay For Life and the fight against cancer.

I am objecting to the application for Minor Variance to vary the required parkini(or the proposed Change in Use from Retail to a Bingo Hall. I will be referring to By-Law 3295, and amendments thereto which is the Town's Comprehensive Zoning By-Law passed in April 14th, 2008. Pursuant to the Town's Comprehensive Zoning By-Law definitions: 4.8 "ASSEMBLY HALL", means a building or part of a building in which facilities are provided for such purposes as meetings for civic, educational, political, or social purposes and shall include a banquet hall and private club. However, if we are talking about a Bingo Hall, the correct use is: 4.143 "PLACE OF ENTERTAINMENT", means a motion picture or other theatre, amusement arcade, arena, auditorium, public hall, billiard or pool room, bingo hall, bowling alley, or dance hall; but does not include any other place of entertainment or amusement otherwise defined or classified herein. Bingo Hall is not specifically defined otherwise. Therefore, the application is incorrect if the use which is being aQplied for as a Change in Use is a Bingo Hal With respect to the issue of Legal Nonconforming Status which the Planning Report indicates the subject property enjoys, I would draw the Committees attention to Section 5.21.3 which states: 5.21.3 HOW NON-CONFORMING RIGHTS LOST Non-conforming rights shall be considered to be extinguished in the following situations: (a) where a building or structure containing or otherwise used in connection with a non-conforming use is more than 50% accidentally damaged or demolished and is not repaired and reoccu ied within one (1) year; (b) where the non-conforming use is discontinued for a period exceeding six (6) months; The Planning Report indicates the subject building has been vacant for 10 years. As the Committee is aware, in order for a Minor Variance to be approved, it must meet all four items in the Four Point test relating to Section 45.1 ofthe Planning Act: This test has long been recognized by the Ontaio Municipal Board in hearing Appeals to Minor variance applications. 1. Is the application minor? 2. Is the application desirable for the appropriate development of the lands in question? 3. Does the application conform to the general intent of the Zoning By-law? 4. Does the application conform to the general intent of the Official Plan? It is important to note that to consider any application a minor variance it must meet all four tests. The Planning Report on tonite's agenda has identified the required Parking under the current By-Law as 124 spaces. This does not take into account what is being proposed. The Parking Requirement for a Place of Entertainment is 1 parking space for each 10 square metres of building or twice the parking requirement of a retail space. In this case an additional 31 parking spaces from the original retail use which appears to have been vacant for 10 years. This in fact would be a total of 154 parkings space to be provided ifthe proposed use was meeting current requirement. The current spaces being provided are said to be 62.This is a significant difference. Section 5.24.1.9 of the Comprehensive Zoning By-Law providing the following with respect to building that existed at the time the By-Law was passed. This would be the case of the subject: The parking area requirements referred to herein shall not apply to any building in existence at the date of passing of this By-Law so long as the floor area, as it existed at such date, is not increased, and the building or structure is used for a purpose which does not require more parking spaces according to Section 5.24.2 of this By-Law than were required by its use at the date of Qassing of this By-Law. If an addition or change of use is made to a building or structure as it existed at the date of passing of this By-Law, then additional parking spaces shall be provided to the number required for such addition or change in use. Clearly the the application is proposing a change in use. The intent of the by-Law is that additional spaces would be provided. The Planning Report has indicated that the applicant is proposing to mark out additional on site parking spaces. The provided site plan with the Application shows these parking spaces in the Interior Sideyard of the building adjacent to a Residentially Zoned Area. Section 5.24.3 does not permit any parking areas within a required Interior sideyard or rearyard of Commercial Developments adjacent to Residential Zones. Therefore the _Rro_Rosed _Rarking s_Races would not be permitted. No additional parking spaces are therefore beingj)rovided. In addition, Section 5.14 of By-Law 3295 requires loading zones to be provided separate from parking spaces. These have not been shown on the proposed site plan. At least one loading area of 11.5 by 29.5 feet is to be provided. Section 5.24.11 of the By-law requires all motor vehicle parking must be provided on the same lot. The Notice for this hearing states that it is anticipated that parking from the subject site will be displaced onto the adjacent streets. This is clearly not the intent of the Zoning By-Law. This clearly creates a situation which is inappropriate, undesirable and not in the best interests of the Public Good. Creating a situation which requires vehicles to park on residential streets in the Lisgar Heights Subdivision which by comment of the Parks and Recreation Staff is already under pressure from events at the Community Centre is inappropriate and undesirable. Devon Court and Alba Ave are particularily vulnerable as it is a quiet area with young children and no sidewalks. Therefore clearly, this a_RQlication for Qarking relief is not minor, does not carry out the intent of the Zoning By-Law and is not a Qropriate or desirable. Any one of these would require the application not to be aQ roved. With respect to the issue of Hardship to the owner, opportunites continue to exist to rent out the space for retail which will not have the adverse parking impact that is proposed from this Place of Entertainment. I would ask that I have an opportunity to ask questions or make further submissions as this hearing proceeds. Thank you Committee for giving me this opportunity to make this submission. I am providing a copy ofthis to the Secretary and would thereby request written notification of the Decision of the Committee.

Public Participation and Information Sharing The City will ensure that it is open and accountable to its stakeholders through implementing processes outlining how, when and under what rules meetings will take place. The municipality's meetings will be open to the public when and as required under the Act. The City has adopted processes which ensure that participation by the public can be meaningful and effective through timely disclosure of information by various means including: • procedure by-law • strategic plan • corporate plan • deputation rules • records retention by-law • planning processes • notice by-law • freedom of access process pursuant to legislation" In August of 2011, following a comprehensive staff review, Council adopted Chapter 105 of the City of Orillia Municipal Code, being the Procedure By-law for Local Boards and Committees. This was followed by training sessions for the secretaries and staff assigned as resources to the various boards and committees.

ORILLIA 105.13 AUGUST2011 Re-thinking the Auto Industry: A Policy Vision to Escape the Race to the Bottom Canada's auto industry has been to hell and back over the last decade. 50,000 good auto jobs disappeared, due to global financial turmoil, recession, plant closures, and surging imports from offshore. In 1999 we ranked as the 4th largest auto producer in the world -an incredible national achievement. Today we aren't even in the top ten. The industry reached the breaking point in 2009 ... but then pulled back from the brink, with the help of government intervention and sacrifices by auto workers and other stakeholders . Yes, the industry has endured terrible times. But the industry, and the people who make it work, are still here. We survived. And we're still making an enormous, disproportionate contribution to Canada's GDP, xports, productivity, and innovation. 112,000 Canadians are still directly employed in auto manufacturing. Counting spin-off jobs, almost 400,000 Canadians depend on the continued presence of this vital sector. The bleeding of jobs has mostly stopped, for now. Canada's production share of overall North American sales has actually increased since the meltdown. Output and exports have partly rebounded. A few jobs have even come back (unfortunately, just a tiny proportion of the jobs that were lost). Vehicle sales are growing strongly, suggesting more opportunity (and huge corporate profits) in the years ahead. But Canada's auto sector is at a historical crossroads. We survived the crisis of 2009 . Government measures (including "Canadian manufacturing footprint" deals with major automakers) were important. But what comes next? An overvalued loonie makes our costs look 25% more expensive than they are. And the continuing "race to the bottom" (where corporations take advantage of desperation and repression in low- wage regions to boost their already-fat profits) threatens our ability to win future investments. The future of our industry can never be guaranteed at the bargaining table. As a country, we need a strong, effective, modern strategy to preserve a far share of these good jobs. We need a National Auto Policy.
