Description
2023-06-27 Township of Central Frontenac Regular Council meeting
A
We
Gather
is
the
traditional
and
unseated
territory
of
the
Algonquin
Nation
I
would
ask
everybody
to
put
their
phones
on
mute
and
hopefully
we
can
take
them
off
mute
when
we
leave
approval
of
the
agenda.
I
have
a
motion
moved
by
Lynn
clegus
seconded
by
Duncan
McGregor
that
the
rules
of
procedure
order
be
amended
to
move
number
nine
delegations
up
in
the
agenda
order
to
follow
number
five
mayor's
remarks
and
for
the
agenda
for
the
regular
council
meeting
held
June
27
2023
be
approved
as
presented.
Are
there
any
amendments?
Kathy.
A
Right
is
there
any
disclosure
pecuniary
interest,
in
general
nature
thereof
of
any
item
on
tonight's
agenda
by
any
member
of
council?
Nothing!
No,
ditch
we'll
note
that
in
a
minute
by
Duncan
McGregor
that
the
minutes
of
the
regular
council
meeting
held
June
13
2023
be
approved
as
presented
any
amendments
or
questions.
A
E
E
B
And
I
think
the
and
I
think
that
that
was
sort
of
discussed
sort
of
after,
but
there
was
no
motion
put
forth
not
to
accept
it.
The
garbage,
because
I
know
that
counselor
you
know
and
Bill
was
mentioning
that
he
could
certainly
do
it
for
them
on
the
side
and
I.
Think
I,
remember
the
mayor,
mentioning
that
is
not
our
property.
So
therefore
for
us
to
pick
it
up,
but
that's
why
at
that
point,
but
if
it
wants
to
come
forth,
then
would
have
to
come
forth.
E
Well,
they
do
bring
a
lot
of
Tourism
into
the
area
and
it
is
our
property,
and
that
was
what
was
explained
to
me
after
the
meeting
was
that
for
them
to
pay
to
pick
up,
the
garbage
is
a
bit
of
a
strain
because
they
they
fundraise
for
their
money.
They
do
apply
for
Grants
to
do
make
changes
there,
and
that
was
information
that
I
don't
think
we
all
receipt
kind
of
received
that
at
the
time
well,.
A
A
All
right
mayor's
remarks:
I
have
a
motion
to
read:
move
by
Lin
and
seconded
by
Duncan,
whereas
the
township
of
central
front
neck
recognizes
the
importance
of
agriculture
in
the
region
and
whereas
the
township
of
central
front
neck
believes
this.
A
strong
agricultural
economy
is
essential
for
enduring
communities
for
the
health
of
our
residents
and
to
establish
a
strong
community
in
support
of
food
security
for
our
citizens,
as
well
as
our
businesses
and
organizations
and
where's.
A
It's
certainly
huge
in
the
South
that
have
a
lot
of
big
active
Farms,
but
we
we
do
have
some
Hobby
Farms
that
might
welcome
visitors
as
well.
Certainly
you
can
buy
eggs
in
a
number
of
places
and
that's
a
good
thing
to
be
doing.
Okay,
mayor's
remarks.
Canada
Day
is
coming
up.
July
1st
we're
having
a
parade
we're
having
stuff
at
the
beaches
Arden's
having
stuff
as
well.
A
All
the
districts
are
no
I
shouldn't,
say
all
the
districts
I
know,
District,
Two
and
Three
are
going
to
be
putting
floats
in
I,
don't
know
about
Kennebec
or
hinchenbrook
anyway.
Those
who
will
be
on
the
float
we
have
to
meet
across
from
the
office
at
around
11
11
15
on
Canada
Day
and
then
go
from
there.
The
firemen
are
doing
a
pancake
breakfast
and
if
you
haven't
been
it's
excellent
and
good
Convoy
maple
syrup,
that's
the
best
part
of
Pancakes.
Is
the
syrup
anything
else
that
I'm
missing
July.
A
C
A
B
A
B
G
C
G
G
There
is
approximately
50
percent
of
those
municipalities
that
have
development
charged
bylaws.
We
do
have
up
in
the
north
there's
about
176
municipalities,
so
they're,
not
necessarily
the
hotbed
of
economic
growth.
So
many
of
those
municipalities
I
think
there's
only
eight
across
the
northern
realm
that
actually
have
bylaws.
So
in
the
South
there's
an
a
good
amount
of
municipalities
who
have
chosen
to
adopt
these
form
of
bylaws,
which
helps
them
Finance
infrastructure
to
accommodate
growth.
So,
if
I
go
to
the
next
slide,
please.
G
So
it
it's.
When
we
go
through
this
process,
we
do
calculate
for
both
the
residential
sector
non-residential.
There
are
municipalities
who
may
choose
to
only
charge
for
residential
growth,
but
not
not
the
industrial
or
commercial
or
institutional.
So
that's
something
just
to
clarify
the
second
bullet.
Just
talks
about
the
development
charges,
act,
actually
breaks
costs
or
infrastructure
costs
into
two
different
categories.
G
The
first
one
is
more
localized
cost
and
they
call
it
local,
local
servicing
under
the
act,
and
basically
it
says
that
very
localized
costs
are
the
responsibility
of
the
developing
landowner.
So
if
you
have
a
subdivision,
maybe
within
that
subdivision
you
might
have
roads,
perhaps
street
lights,
maybe
sidewalks.
You
know
more
of
the
urbanized
municipalities
or
areas
they
would
have
water
and
sewer
Etc.
So
those
costs
internal
to
the
subdivision
basically
are
the
full
responsibility
of
the
developer.
So
that
is
their
costs.
G
G
So
those
are
the
air,
that's
the
area
that
we
focus
in
on
when
undertaking
the
calculations.
So
as
part
of
the
process,
still
we
do
Define
developer
responsibilities,
clearly
in
the
report
and
then
what's
what
we're
picking
up
in
the
development
charge
next
slide
just
to
highlight
development
charges
have
been
around
for
about
65
years.
They
came
in
in
the
mid
50s
1950s
and
they
were
originally
under
the
planning
act
and
if
you've
ever
heard
the
term
lot
levees,
that's
development
charges.
G
It's
just
that
that
particular
point
they
were
imposed
under
the
planning
act
and
they
could
be
imposed
when
you
created
a
lot
so
either
by
subdivision
or
by
Severance.
When
those
New
Lots
were
created,
you
could
impose
the
charge
and
that's
how
they
got
the
nickname
lot.
Levies
from
the
mid
50s
to
basically
the
end
of
the
1980s
we
were
under
that
regime
and
there
was
a
if
somebody
wanted
to
appeal
the
bylaws.
G
They
would
go
to
the
OMB,
and
so
there
was
a
lot
of
case
law
that
really,
over
those
those
30
years
defined
many
of
the
calculations,
the
approaches
and
how
we
would
undertake
a
development
charge
study.
So
in
1989,
The,
Province
weaved,
together
all
of
that
legislation
and
they
came
out
with
the
First
Development
charges
act
in
1989.
G
and
you
can
see
as
we
move
through
time.
There
was
an
update.
There
was
a
change
in
1997
and
then
basically
for
the
next
almost
20
years,
there
was
no
changes
to
the
legislation,
but
since
2015
or
January
1st
2016,
you
can
see,
we've
had
six
modifications
to
the
legislation
which
are
initially
undertaken
by
the
liberal
government
in
2015-16
and
subsequent
the
conservative
government
since
2019..
G
So
there's
been
considerable
change,
some
of
those
I'll
kind
of
highlight
as
I
go
through,
but
the
more
to
advise
municipalities
who
are
currently
going
through
the
process.
What
the
changes
are
when
they're
looking
to
update
their
bylaws.
So,
as
you
can
see,
these
have
been
around
for
a
long
time.
The
one
thing
that
I
didn't
present
in
here
is
in
addition
to
this
legislation
and
the
corresponding
changes.
G
There's
there
is
175,
roughly
case
law,
so
OMB
alpat,
Lo
LT
decisions
that
basically
give
insights
into
how
we
do
the
in
calculations
or
some
interpretations
of
the
legislation.
But
that's
for
you
know
the
guys
like
me
to
read:
you
don't
have
to
read
it,
but
we
have
to
be
mindful
of
all
of
those
changes
in
order
to
properly
advise
our
clients
on
how
to
do
the
the
appropriate
charges
and
bylaws
next
slide.
Please.
G
So
if
we
at
a
very
high
level
as
I
say,
the
these
are
a
lot
of
details.
Behind
These,
but
I'll
hit
some
of
the
highlights
from
the
legislation.
So,
in
order
to
have
a
charge,
you
must
prepare
a
background,
study
and
I'll
go
through
some
of
the
the
calculation
or
some
of
the
things
we
have
to
do
therein,
and
once
we
have
the
study,
you
must
make
it
available
to
the
public
for
a
minimum
60
days.
G
So
it's
a
process
where
you
can
receive
input
from
the
general
public
and
that
input
would
assist
you
in
making
decisions
with
respect
to
the
bylaw
what's
contained
in
the
the
background
study
is
a
number
of
different
things
that
if
we
go
to
the
next
slide,
please
you'll
see
that
the
legislation
sets
out
several
steps
and
it
starts
by
saying
identifying
the
amount,
type
and
location
of
growth.
So
the
amount
would
be
you
know
how
much
in
different
areas.
G
You
know
if
you
have
an
urban
area
versus
the
outside
the
urban
area,
how
much
and
the
where
the
type
would
be
residential
versus
commercial
industrial
institution
and
then
obviously
the
location
helps
us
to
focus
in
on
those
areas.
In
order
to
see
what
servicing
is
needed
from
that
growth,
then
we
identify
the
servicing
needs
and
the
needs
translate
into
actual
capital
projects
and
infrastructure
costs.
So
what
the
cost
estimates
are.
We
must
make
some
deductions.
So
are
we
going
to
receive
any
Grant
subsidies
and
other
contributions,
which
would
then
be
deducted?
G
There's
not
a
lot
of
Grants
these
days,
but
in
the
past
we've
had
them.
We
need
to
consider
whether
there's
a
benefit
to
existing
development.
Basically,
what's
that
saying
is,
for
example,
if
we're
replacing
a
fire
station,
you've
got
a
4
000
square
foot
station,
we're
going
to
build
a
ten
thousand
square
foot
part
of
that's
replacing
something
that's
already
in
place,
and
then
we
would
just
cost
we
would
provide
in
the
costing
for
the
expansion
cost,
but
not
the
replacement
as
well.
G
If
they're
we're
overcoming
some
type
of
inherent
problem
in
an
area,
maybe
if
you've
got
water
servicing
and
there
you
have
low
water
pressure,
some
of
the
improvements
we
might
make
would
resolve
that
water
pressure
issue.
So
that
would
be
something
we
would
consider
as
well
as
benefit
to
existing
for
the
soft
after
services,
so
the
non-water
Wastewater
roads,
type
of
services
there's
a
calculation
that
we
have
to
do.
G
G
G
You
know
a
lake
could
be
purchased
from
another
neighbor,
so
the
Province
does
not
focus
in
this
service
standard
calculation
on
as
I
say,
those
more
water,
waste
water
and
storm
related
services.
And
then,
if
you
have
a
bylaw
moving
from
one
to
the
next,
we
have
to
consider
whether
you've
got
any
balances
in
the
reserve.
Fund
and
we'd
have
to
rationalize
it.
But
then
we
start
with
projects.
We
consider
some
deductions,
we're
left
with
a
net
cost
that
cost
must
be
split
between
a
residential
and
non-residential
benefit.
G
There's
many
different
ways
that
we
measure
that
and
then
once
we've
done,
that
we
divide
it
by
the
growth
and
that's
how
we
come
up
with
the
calculations
of
a
charge
for
on
the
residential
side
depending
on
the
type
of
home
and
then
the
non-residential
side,
and
that's
normally
measured
by
square
footage
of
buildings.
So
if
we
go
to
the
next
slide
in
very
very
simple
terms,
what's
the
cost
that
we
can
attribute
to
growth?
And
then
we
divide
that
in
by
the
growth
and
we
come
up
with
the
charges
so
for
residential.
G
Normally
we
have
low
density
so
singles
and
semi-detached
medium
densities,
which
would
be
townhouses
and
then
high
density,
which
is
apartment
so
we'll
come
up
with
charges
to
kind
of
reflect
the
size
of
the
units
and
basically
the
where
we
drill
down
more
to
what's
the
average
number
of
people
in
those
units
and
that
helps
us
to
vary
the
charge
based
on
the
the
the
size
for
the
of
the
residential
unit.
Non-Residential
is
expressed
on
a
cost
per
square
foot.
G
G
Next
slide,
please,
as
we
move
through
I
mean
what
the
councils
are
always
challenged
with
is,
you
know,
should
I
have
a
development
charger
not
such
as
yourselves
and
there's
no
mandatory
requirement
to
have
a
development
charge,
but
what
happens
is
ultimately
over
time
with
development
pressures?
And
you
know
perhaps
we're
getting
growth
now
and
may
warrant
improvements
to
roads
that
are
adjacent
to
the
subdivision
we
may
have
to
put
in
water
treatment
facilities
and
then
extend
servicing
to
those
developments
Etc.
G
So,
as
you
experience
growth,
there's
pressures
to
invest
in
infrastructure
and
the
two
bottom
ovals
basically
identified
that,
on
the
one
hand
side
you,
you
know
you
can't
you
can
recover
potentially
as
much
as
you
can
from
a
development
charge
from
those
developments
or
if
you
choose
not
to
have
development
charges,
then
what
happens
is
the
existing
taxpayer?
The
existing
Water
and
Wastewater
ratepayer
end
up
basically
subsidizing
New
Growth
because
they
will
pay
the
full
cost
of
those
that
infrastructure.
So
you
recover
what
you
can
so
they're
paying
their
fair
share.
G
G
G
We've
worked
with
I
remember
years
ago,
Renfrew
the
town
of
Ren,
through
their
growth
forecast,
basically
said
well
we're
not
going
to
grow
anymore
by
people,
but
what
we
were
seeing
is
they
were
building
about
50
units
a
year,
but
the
population
wasn't
changing
and
that's
because
when
you
get
into
some
of
the
detailed
demographics,
what
happens
is
over
time
new
homes
tend
to
have
a
higher
occupancy,
but
they
tend
to
decline
over
time.
So
an
example
I
built
my
house
25
years
ago.
G
I
have
three
kids,
so
there's
five
people
in
my
household,
the
kids,
are
no
longer
here.
I've
been
fortunate
to
you
know,
get
them
to
leave
the
nest
so
now
there's
only
my
wife
and
I
so
now
we're
down
to
two
people.
So
that's
a
factor
in
gee
we're
not
getting
any
growth
in
population,
but
we
are
having
about
50
units
per
year.
So
you
know
in
renfrew's
case
we
were
looking
at
the
fact
that
over
10
years,
they'd
be
building
500
units,
but
the
population
wouldn't
change.
G
You
can
still
impose
the
charge.
The
ACT
talks
about
development.
It
actually
doesn't
talk
about
Resident
population
or
employment
growth,
so,
just
to
clarify
that
we
have
different
planning
Horizons,
you
have
complete
flexibility.
Maybe
we
take
10
years
or
20
years
as
they're
planning
Horizon.
Maybe
we
use
the
official
plan
targets
when
we're
dealing
with
water
and
wastewater.
Quite
often
they
are
to
service
a
certain
capacity,
so
we
might
use
that
or
there
may
be
other
forecasts.
G
So
we
have
a
lot
of
flexibility
in
generating
those
forecasts
that
we
would
use
sometimes
as
well.
We
can
charge
Municipal
wide
or
we
may
be
allowed
depending
to
charge
on
an
area
specific
basis.
So
some
these
are
some
of
the
considerations
as
we're
going
through
the
study
that
we
would
engage
with
staff
and
then
subsequently
with
Council,
to
talk
about
the
approach
and
how
we
would
impose
the
charge
Municipal
wide
or
just
specifically,
on
certain
distinct
areas.
Next
slide.
G
Over
time,
the
number
of
services
have
been
narrowed
on
which
we
can
collect.
So
originally,
let's
say
back
in
1989.
We
could
collect
for
any
service
you
you
wish
to
that.
You
provide
and
you
wish
to
recover,
for,
as
you
can
see
now,
they've
narrowed
the
number
of
services
I
think
they've
captured
the
more
essential
services,
but
over
time,
they've
they've
continued
to
reduce
the
number
of
services.
G
H
G
G
There's
just
a
definition
of
capital
costs,
basically,
for
the
most
part,
any
cost
that
you
incur
as
part
of
a
capital
project
can
be
included
right
now
we
can
include,
we
can
include
land
or
and
I'll
come
back
to
why
it's
highlighted
we
can
include
land
or
once
we
have
the
land,
we
can
improve
it.
So
obviously,
if
you've
got
a
fire
station,
maybe
you
need
to
put
make
sure
that
they
have
water
at
the
station
and
sewage
electrical.
You
can
put
a
parking
lot.
G
You
can
do
the
Landscaping,
so
all
of
that's
improvements
to
the
land
you
can
acquire.
You
can
buy
an
existing
building.
You
can
lease
a
building
and
pay
the
development
charges
through
a
portion
of
that
lease
through
development
charges.
You
can
construct
your
own
or
you
can,
in
certain
cases
improve
buildings
where
we
can
demonstrate
that
that
Improvement
is
and
is
expanding
the
capacity
to
provide
the
service.
For
example,
you've
got
a
basement
Library,
it's
dead
storage,
maybe
you'd
like
to
renovate
that
and
turn
it
into
programming
space.
G
So
because
you're
expanding
you
know
the
the
areas
which
to
provide
the
service.
We
could
include
it
equipment.
Enrolling
stock
I've
talked
about
leases,
circulation
materials
for
libraries.
If
you
need
to
borrow
money,
the
interest
can
also
be
included
in
the
calculation.
So,
basically
it's
all
of
those
costs
can
be
included.
G
G
And
then
we
talked
a
little
bit
about
that
localized
service
and
actually
in
2016,
as
of
2016
The,
Province
kind
of
strengthened
the
local
service
policy
and
what
they
wanted
to
do
was
to
make
sure
that
it
was
very
clear
that
the
developers
are
going
to
be.
Your
policy
will
tell
them
what
their
responsibilities
are
and
what
we
include
in
the
DC,
and
it
basically
expressly
says-
and
you
cannot
over
charge
them-
you
can't
require
them
to
over
contribute
or
to
construct
works
that
you
haven't
rationalized
through
the
development
charge
study.
G
So
those
are
they
strengthened,
I
I
would,
it
would
appear.
Perhaps
some
municipalities
may
have
been
I
won't
use
the
term
abusing
the
system,
but
maybe
not
working
quite
in
the
favor
of
the
developers.
So
there's
been
in
complaints
so
now
they've
strengthened
that
so,
as
I
noted,
we've
got
these
this
local
service
policy,
which
is
probably
a
good
thing
to
be
communication,
very
clear,
on
what
their
responsibilities
are
and
if
we
go
on
to
the
next
slide,
I'll
just
show
you
some
examples
of
what
we
normally
include.
G
So
we
would
take
a
look
at
you
know
what
roads
are
going
to
be
built
by
the
developers,
so
obviously
internal
roads,
whether
they
be
you
know
of
a
you
know,
of
a
growl,
whether
they
be
asphalt
more
urban
standard
or
whether
they
be
a
rural
standard,
they
would
be
their
responsibility.
There
are
some
things
with
you
know
what,
if
you
have
a
collector
Road
running
through
the
middle
of
a
subdivision?
How
do
we
deal
with
that?
G
So
we
develop
policies
to
deal
with
the
roads,
intersection
improvements
and
potentially
traffic
signals,
street
lights,
sidewalks
these
trails
and
and
bike
routes,
noise
walls
like
abatement
measures,
land
education,
easements,
water,
Wastewater
and
storm
and
park
dedication
requirements.
So
these
are
the
normal
things
will
turn
our
mind
to
and
included
in
the
the
local
service
policy.
Next
slide.
G
And
this
basically
just
from
a
very
quick
representation
I
always
describe.
You
know
that
the
infrastructure
is
kind
of
a
hierarchy
and
you
can
see,
for
example,
let's
say
water,
you
have
small
internal
mains,
you
may
have
larger
mains,
you
may
have
some
localized
bumping
so
that
all
localized
stuff
would
be
the
developer
responsibility.
But
the
the
broader
costs
that
are
outside
of
the
subdivision
may
be
the
very
large
trunks.
G
There's
the
large
pumping
and
distribution,
there's
storage,
there's
water
treatment
and
then
there's
the
water
supply
so
that
higher
they
they
higher
level
infrastructure.
We
include
in
the
DC
and
that's
represented
in
the
blue
and
then
for
the
more
buff
colored.
That's
the
developer's
responsibility
and
we've,
given
you
water,
Wastewater,
storm
and
Roads.
As
an
example
of
that
next
slide,.
G
And
so
when
we
developed
the
the
development
charge,
there
are
mandatory
exemptions
and
then
there's
discretionary
exemptions,
so
the
mandatory
ones
are.
The
province
has
said
you
cannot
collect
for
these
these
different
instances,
so
you
can't
impose
your
charge
on,
let's
say
the
county
and
you
can't
charge
it
on
the
school
boards.
G
If
you
have
an
existing
industrial
building,
you
can
allow
them
to
expand
by
up
to
50
percent
and
that
first
50
percent
they
don't
pay
a
charge.
There
is
more
intensification
within
a
let's
say,
a
single
family
home.
So
you
can
add
two
additional
apartments
inside
an
existing
single
family
would
or
semi-detached
a
row
house
as
well.
G
They've
got
higher
density
development
exemptions,
including
if
you've
got
rental
residential
buildings,
there's
a
reduction
for
them
as
well,
and
I
violated,
affordable,
attainable
and
non-profit.
Those
are
new,
but
we've
not
got
a
definition
of
what
they
mean.
Yet
and
then
we've
got
as
I've
noted
residential
units
get
discounted
Below.
On
top
of
all
that,
Council
may
want
to
further
develop
some
policies.
You
want
to
maybe
reduce
the
charge
or
not
impose
that
at
all.
G
Maybe-
and
this
might
be
the
instance
as
your
phase
putting
in
a
new
charge,
you
may
consider
phasing
in
over
time
that's
eligible
and
then
part
of
our
policies
recognize
that
if
I
knock
down
a
building
and
then
you
replace
it
that
there
should
be
some
type
of
credit
or
some
type
of
recognition.
So
if
I
knock
down
a
single
family,
home
and
I,
replace
it
with
a
single
family
home,
this
shouldn't
be
a
charge.
So
we
develop
policies
in
conjunction
with
yourself
and
on
these
different
instances.
G
If
we
go
to
the
next
slide,
it's
kind
of
the
top
10
exemptions
that
discretionary
exemptions
we
see.
So
quite
often
places
of
worship
are
Exempted
bona
fide
farm
buildings,
so
we
may
charge
for
the
house,
but
a
lot
of
municipalities
don't
charge
for
bona
fide
farm
buildings,
Industrial,
Development,
downtown
or
infill
development,
Brownfield,
redevelopments,
hospitals,
university
colleges
and
non-profit
or
affordable
housing.
G
G
You
know
a
broader
reach,
I've
taken
look
at
some
different
jurisdictions.
You
can
see
United
counties,
Prescott
and
Russell
Lanark
Linux
and
Addington
Hastings
Renfrew
Etc.
Just
to
give
you
a
perspective
of
the
range
of
charges
that
kind
of
are
in
in
there.
You
can
see
that
Clarence
Rocklin
and
this
would
include
the
upper
tier
and
lower
tier
charges,
so
in
total,
in
Clarence
Rocklin,
there's
just
below
thirty
thousand
dollars
for
a
single
detached
unit
Russell.
Similarly,
you're
in
the
twenty
six
thousand
dollar
range
Mississippi,
Mills,
24
000..
G
So
you
can
see
those
municipalities
in
and
around
the
the
Ottawa
area
are
have
higher
charges,
so
just
basically
down
the
road
they're
around
sixteen
thousand
Quint
West
14
Renfrew,
just
under
12
and
then
South
Front.
Next
to
your
neighbor
is
that
10-6
and
Senator
Hastings
Etc,
so
you
can
see
quite
a
wide
range.
Some
of
these
include
Water
and
Wastewater,
which
tend
to
really
increase
the
charge,
and
then
some
are
basically
potentially
all
of
the
services.
A
This
is
certainly
something
we
have
grown
around
over
the
years
it
would.
It
would
be
a
matter
of
hiring
a
consultant
to
actually
go
out
and
bring
all
of
those
things
into
play
to
see
what
kind
of
a
number
we
might
be
looking
at,
but
certainly
the
the
phrase
that's
used
is
development
should
pay
for
development,
and-
and
this
is
why
development
charges
are
are
happening
so
much
in
so
many
communities.
A
So
at
this
point,
if
there
aren't
any
questions
or
comments,
thank
you
very
much.
It's
it's
a
very
interesting
topic
with
all
sorts
of
things
to
be
considered
and
something
that
this
Council
will
certainly
be
looking
at
over
the
next
a
couple
of
years.
If
not
this
year,
money
is
tight,
so
we
need
to
look
at
ways
that
we
can
bring
in
some
Revenue
to
help
with
some
of
the
pressures
that
we're
having.
So
thank
you
very
much.
Gary
and
I
have
a
motion
and
the
motion
is
moved
by
Duncan
and
seconded
by
Lynn.
A
F
A
A
I
So,
thank
you,
madam
mayor
council,
for
allowing
us
to
speak.
I.
Think
everybody
here
knows
me
so
I'm
not
going
to
introduce
myself
but
I
think
you
also
realize
that
I'm
not
Allison,
Robinson
Allison,
couldn't
make
it
today,
and
so
she
asked
me
to
just
fill
in
for
her.
So
I
I
want
to
start
by
just
giving
a
very,
very
brief
account
of
the
Charlotte
Lake
business
group.
I
So
the
reason
we're
here
this
evening
is
we
heard
that
there's
going
to
be
some
parking
restrictions
in
front
of
the
Cardinal
Cafe
and
we
are
concerned
that
this
is
going
to
be
a
problem,
an
issue
for
that
business.
So
now
I'm
going
to
turn
it
over
to
Greg,
Butler
Greg
and
his
wife
Christine
are
the
owners
of
Cardinal,
Cafe
and
I
I?
Will
let
him
speak
to
the
issue.
J
Thanks
for
letting
me
speak,
I
know
most
of
you
and
I've
served
most
of
you
coffee,
and
it's
been
a
pleasure.
So
yeah
me
and
my
wife
came
here
last
May
and
took
ownership
at
the
cafe
and
bought
a
house
in
the
village
and
we're
absolutely
loving
the
sense
of
community
here
and
all
the
support
and
we're
really
grateful
that
we're
able
to
have
a
voice
and
speak
about
this
matter.
J
Today
we
went
out
and
looked
at
it
and
mapped
out
some
spots,
and
we
both
were
in
agreeance
that
blocking
off
two
spots
beside
the
corner
would
be
the
best
for
the
for
allowing
visibility
to
be
made
safely.
On
that
turn
and
opening
up
the
other
spots
closer
to
my
entrance
to
allow
parking
there
that
way,
it
does.
It
keeps
everyone
safe
on
the
roads
and
it
still
allows
my
patrons
who
are
passing
through
to
stop
when
I
have
such
a
limited
parking
space
as
it
is.
A
D
K
We
also
chose
temporary.
We
also
chose
flexible
Bollard
because
it
is
not
a
permanent
solution.
It
still
is
a
trial,
so
I'm
very
comfortable.
Trying
trying
this
and
I
realized
the
the
revenue
generated
from
Vehicles
being
able
to
swing
in
Park
Quick,
get
a
coffee
and
keep
going
I
I've
been
there
in
front
of
the
store
and
watched
cars,
come
in
slow
down,
look
for
a
space
and
then
drive
on
because
they
couldn't
find
a
space
and
that's
not
what
we
want.
K
C
K
Vladimir
similar
to
other
kind
of
booming
Villages
that
encourage
tourism
and
cycling
and
walkability,
Greg
and
I
also
took
a
look
this
morning
at
the
possibility
of
utilizing
that
space.
If
there
was
room
and
Council
thought
it
was
safe
enough.
Obviously,
the
business
group
would
come
back
with
proposals,
but
other
communities
have
used
spaces
like
that
to
put
a
bike
rack,
even
a
picnic
table
areas
of
seating
for
like
restaurants
and
stuff,
if
you
get
into
bigger
cities.
K
Unfortunately,
that's
going
to
have
to
come
with
some
traffic
calming
measures
in
our
village,
because
it's
it
is
a
A
to
B
the
design
of
that
Highway
was
getting
vehicles
from
A
to
B,
but
I.
Think
traffic
calming
is
really
needed
through
the
village
of
Chevrolet
on
38,
but
I
just
wanted
to
kind
of
put
the
bugging
council's
ear
that
that
was
also
discussed
as
well
and
I
think
it
should
be
looked
at
in
the
future.
A
We're
going
to
do
traffic
calming,
we
need
to
start
south
of
the
village
where
there's
been
so
many
problems
with
speed,
and
it
will
start
with
a
public
meeting
or
a
few
public
meetings
before
we
do
anything.
We're
not
going
to
go
down
that
path
again,
where
we
go
ahead
and
do
something
and
then
have
tons
of
people
liking
and
not
liking,
so
certainly
down
the
road.
We
can
look
at
that,
but
for
tonight
we're
going
to
solve
the
parking
moved
by
Philip
and
seconded
by
Nikki.
A
The
council
received
a
letter
from
the
Charlotte
Lake
business
group
regarding
parking
on
road
38
for
information
and
further
that
stop
staff
re-evaluate
to
see
how
many
parking
spaces
can
remain
along
38
and
further
that
staff
create
a
parking
bylaw
for
Council
review.
So
the
agreement
you've
come
to
is
fine
with
us.
Let's
do
it
as
a
trial
basis
see
how
it
works,
any
other
questions
or
comments.
All
those
in
favor
motions
carried
unanimously,
always
good
when
it
can
be
worked
out.
A
A
E
A
quick
question:
I've
I've,
noticed
in
the
payables
report
and
it
wasn't
really
a
question
for
Michael.
So
that's
why
I
didn't
direct
it
I've,
never
seen
in
the
past,
where
we've
been
purchasing
boots
for
students.
Is
that
something
new
this
year
that
we're
going
to
be
purchasing
boots
because
with
10
15
students,
it
might
be
a
lot.
L
E
L
D
A
A
B
Under
our
employee
policy
for
permanent
employees
boots
are
boots.
We
do
pay
for
those,
but
anything
there's
nothing
specific
in
that
for
students
and
I.
Think
that's
where,
when
they're
coming,
when
students
are
coming,
that
is
one
of
the
rec.
You
know
one
of
the
provisors
that
we
ask
them.
If
you
have
you
have
your
own
safety
boots
to
bring
them,
we've
never
bought
any
safety
boots
first.
So
that's
why
I'm
surprised
about
that
as
well.

discussion.
All
those
in

carried.
H
L
A
draft
report
initially
so
I
apologize
to
council
I
didn't
catch
that
word.
I
am
hoping
that
it
would
be
approved
tonight
if
it
Council
had
any
issues
or
questions
I
just
take
it
back
and
bring
it
back
to
council.
So
that's
my
intention
for
tonight.
This
will
require
extensive
staff
resources
to
address
every
single
one
of
our
assets
to
determine
if
they
have
an
asset
retirement
obligation
or
not.
The
easiest
one
is
to
think
of,
as
the
other
mentioned
was
asbestos,
our
landfills,
any
other
legal
obligations
for
underground
tanks.
A
L
A
A
C
I
just
wanted
to
know
why
we
decided
not
to
send
any
firefighters
to
the
forest
fire
that
happened
when
there
was
a
call
for
volunteers
for
firefighters
to
go.
That's
one
of
the
questions
and
then
I've
noticed
we've
put
our
Furby
now
and
took
it
off.
Put
it
back
on
and
the
province
had
actually
had
a
fire
ban
on.
C
So
just
wondering
what
liability
we
have
if
we're,
not
in
conjunction
with
what
the
province
is,
is
suggesting
and
I'd
ask
Chris
about
the
Emergency,
Services
alert
and
if,
if
that
could
be
used
in
the
case
of
a
forest
fire
in
our
municipality
to
notify
residents,
because
there's
not
there's
not
really
good
method
of
communicating
to
the
residents.
If
there
is
an
active
forest
fire
streaming
across
the
municipality.
N
To
start
off,
the
the
fire
ban
is,
as
far
as
that
goes,
you're
correct,
I
had
looked
at
the
band,
because
I
felt
that
with
the
zones
that
we
only
had
a
portion
of
our
municipality
in
the
fire
zones
with
the
restrictions
with
the
province.
However,
through
a
workshop
session
last
Thursday,
which
they're
going
to
continue
doing
further
I
guess
until
the
fires
settle
down,
they
told
me
that
the
band
would
have
to
stay
on
for
the
whole
municipality
because
we
do
have
a
portion
in
the
restricted
zone.
N
N
N
Our
numbers
are
down
during
the
day
as
it
is,
but
because,
as
you
see
tonight,
we
have
an
automatic
Aid
agreement
that
we're
going
to
look
be
joining
in
with
North
Broad
neck.
That
I
felt
that
it
was
best
that
we
keep
our
people
back
here,
to
look
after
our
municipality
and
for
the
surrounding
areas
surrounding
municipalities.
So
that
was
that
was
the
reason.
I
did
that.
N
N
N
N
For
sure
I
mean
yes,
that
is
something
that
we
would
probably
do
in
joint
with
the
rest
of
the
municipalities
surrounding
municipalities
and
and
the
problems,
the
MNR
we've
been
working
closely
with
them.
I've
been
in
contact
with
them
every
week
and,
as
a
matter
of
fact,
they've
got
a
crew
of
four
Rangers
coming
to
our
pancake
breakfast
on
Saturday.
To
do
some
public
education
with
the
people
attending
that
as
well.
So.
A
N
Correct
amount
of
Mayor
they
they
started
this
last
Thursday.
They
felt
there
was
a
need
for
it:
sort
of
like
a
town
hall
meeting
with
the
all
the
municipalities
in
the
in
the
in
the
zone,
restricted
Zone
area
on
the
on
the
call
there
was
about
just
over
200,
and
they
they
explained
that
the
whole
process
and
what
it
is
is
not
so
much
as
the
the
fires
are
being
reduced,
but
the
resources
they
don't
have
the
resources
to
to
deploy
into
our
areas
into
the
South
and
to
the
east.
N
They
they
don't
have
anything
of
that
nature
as
well.
They
they
would
only
use,
as
they've,
been
doing
the
PSAs
with
with
the
local
radio
stations
and
Kingston,
and
that's
actually
I
got
some
feedback
on
that.
Last
week,
when
I
I
put
the
band
back
on
like
that's,
the
only
the
public
service
announcements
is
the
only
way
that
they're
getting
it
out
there.
H
A
H
H
N
D
E
N
N
E
Yes,
sessions.
I'm!
Sorry,
sorry
so
it
says:
Arden
for
May
training
was
five
Mountain
Grove
had
five
trainings
in
one
meeting,
Sherbert
Lake
had
one
meeting
and
12
trainings
Parham
had
one
meeting
six
trainings
and
one
other.
So
that
was
my
question
was
around
the
trend
number
of
trainings
12
in
sherbert
Lake,
whereas
five
or
six
for
the
other
three
three
Halls.
N
M
Yes,
Duncan
look
into
the
response
times
for
medical
calls.
The
medical
call
response
times
are
very
close,
if
not
over
the
15-minute
Mark,
which
is
the
time
we
negotiated
with
front
act,
paramedic
Service
as
far
as
our
response
goes,
because
the
call
times
are
getting
higher
in
your
reports.
Would
it
be
worthwhile
renegotiating
our
contract
with
the
county
to
reduce
the
number
of
calls
we
go
to
if
we're
not
being
effective.
Based
on
our
response
time,.
A
Times
just
speaking
as
a
county
counselor,
we
did
have
a
report
last
meeting
on
Paramedic
Services
and
their
response
times
are
definitely
not
what
they
should
be
and
and
they're
aware
of
that.
It's
the
nature
of
the
Beast
right
now
in
that
so
many
of
the
paramedics
and
the
ambulance
are
being
caught
at
the
hospital.
Ambulances
have
to
come
from
further
distances
to
do
that
call,
and
it's
just
a
vicious
circle.
A
It's
our
Health
Care
system
in
crisis
and
ambulance
and
First
Responders
are
just
a
part
of
that
rolling
problem
and
nobody
really
sees
a
fix.
Unless
the
hospitals
and
doctors
can
fix
get
fixed,
then
the
rest
will
see
the
the
Improvement,
but
up
until
then,
ambulances
can
sit
six
hours
at
kgh,
so
Parham
is
at
kgh,
so
Snow
Road
covers
Land.
Art
covers
it's,
it's
just
a
vicious
circle,
so
we,
if
you
can
negotiate
30
minutes
great
I,
doubt
that
that
will
happen,
though.
N
N
N
A
A
A
Now,
therefore,
it
be
to
resolve
that
Council
considered
passing
a
bylaw
later
in
the
meeting
to
authorize
the
mayor
and
the
CIO
clerk
to
execute
the
automatic
Aid
agreement
attached
to
this
report
for
the
provisions
of
ice
water,
rescue
and
fire
suppression,
services
for
the
township
of
North
Frontenac
questions
or
comments.
Philip.
C
Thank
you,
madam
mayor,
just
wanted
to
say
that
this
this
is
great.
I
was
happy
to
see
some
of
the
the
information
in
there
and
I
would
just
ask
that
going
forward
that
we
kind
of
keep
tabs
on
how
how
many
calls
we
are
responding
to
I.
Think
it's
great
if
we
all
work
together
and
it's
a
reciprocal
agreement,
but
if,
if
it
becomes
very
one
one-sided,
then
that's
my
concern
so
just
like
to
keep
an
eye
on
how
many
times
we
have
to
respond.
M
The
second
is
kind
of
a
point,
but
five
thousand
dollars
for
a
standby
fee
seems
very
low
for
the
dollar
amount
that
the
North
Front
fire
department
is
getting.
So
we
we
have
millions
of
dollars
of
fire
trucks
on
standby
and
five
thousand
dollars
seems
fairly
low
for
that,
and
then
the
third
point-
and
you
brought
it
up
during
the
last
motion-
was
just:
do
we
have
the
resources
in
central
front
and
act
despair
to
help
North
Frontenac
with
their
fires.
N
N
So
all
our
equipment
is
we
charge
for
that
when
we
respond,
the
five
thousand
dollar
standby
fee
is
to
cover
our
costs.
If
we're,
if
we're
canceled
on
route,
so
that
five
thousand
dollar
fee
is
pretty
pretty
much.
The
standard
five
to
eight
thousand
is
a
standard
fee
that
the
municipalities
allows
for
for
standby.
So
that's
just
to
cover
ourselves
if,
if
we're
turned
around
and
sent
back
to
our
station
before
before
we
get
to
the
incident,
so
our
cost
is
covered.
N
Yes,
our
resources
are
are
tight
for
sure,
but
North
reached
out
to
us.
They
have,
as
you
know,
some
concerns
and
and
they're
one
of
their
stations,
and
it
was
in
agreement
with
the
medicine
and
the
CEOs
and
the
fire
chiefs
that
we
would
work
together
to
try
and
look
after
the
residents
in
the
north,
not
all
of
North.
Obviously
so.
N
A
M
B
N
Yeah
mutilate
is
when
we
they
were
called
once
the
the
home
crew
arrives
on
scene
and
they
need
assistance.
They
will
call
for
assistance
from
a
surround
outside
municipality
automatic
Aid.
It's
an
agreement
that
we
would
automatically
run
that
call
so
to
to
assist.
That's
the
difference
they're
still
available
to
us.
If
we
need.
M
N
A
N
O
A
N
N
D
P
N
A
F
M
A
We
need
people
to
park
across
from
the
municipal
office,
but
walking
up
that
hill
is
no
treat
and
but
staff
everybody
seems
to
want
to
park
right
in
front
of
where
they
work,
which
is
great
but
there's
just
not
enough
parking
in
our
village
to
get
the
cars
off
the
street
during
the
day
or
evening.
There's
lots
of
places
to
park,
but
not
during
the
day.
K
Madam,
mayor
I
can
create
between
15
and
30
spots
of
parking
on
the
east
side
of
Matthew
Street
perpendicular
parking
across
from
the
Medical
Center
Road
on
the
Medical
Center
Road.
It
was
presented
in
the
Matthew
Street
project
and
taken
away,
and
we
actually
have
grant
money
remaining
to
that
would
pay.
For
the
majority
of
that
project.
K
But
if
Council
thought
it
was
a
good
idea,
we
could.
We
could
revisit
that
again
to
add
parking
on
Medical
Center,
Road
perpendicular
parking
there
we
own
lots
of
land
there.
It
could
go
all
the
way
from
the
Matthew
Street
and
I
could
Tire
it
in
with
the
parking
lot
at
b-long.
Restaurant.
Certainly.
A
For
summer,
it's
probably
not
great,
but
the
other
10
months
of
the
year
would
probably
be
a
good
fit
the
other.
The
other
problem
with
parking
is.
We
can
pass
all
the
bylaws.
We
know
we
want,
but
unless
we
can
enforce
them,
which
probably
means
hiring
a
part-time
bylaw
enforcement
officer
that
will
walk
around
and
check.
You
know
if
it's
a
two
limit,
Park
hour
parking
or
whatever
and
start
handing
out
tickets.
A
I,
don't
know
that
we're
prepared
to
do
that.
But
it's
something
that's
coming
down
the
down.
The
pipe
at
some
point
as
we
grow
and
get
busier
is,
is
a
bylaw
enforcement
officer
that
works
for
us.
Instead
of
the
agency
that
we
call
in
when
there
is
an
issue
again,
bylaws
are
only
as
good
as
we
can
enforce
them.
You
can
pass
all
you
want,
but
if
you
don't
enforce
them,
then
you
might
as
well
forget
putting
it
on
paper.
A
K
K
I
agree
and
I
just
wanted
to
make
it
really
clear.
Michael
our
Treasurer
could
probably
confirm
more
accurate
numbers
in
the
report,
if
requested
from
Council,
but
there
there
is
up
to
possibly
somewhere
in
the
ballpark
half
a
million
dollars
that
we
would
have
to
be
giving
back
to
the
government
if
we,
if
we
didn't,
create
something
as
an
extension
of
this
Matthew
Street
project
and
there's
ever
since
I've
started
before
I
started,
there's
been
a
need
for
parking
in
the
village.
K
That
was
part
of
the
reason
we
applied
for
a
three
3.2
million
dollar
Grant.
We
need
parking
got.
The
money
seems
like
a
no-brainer
to
me,
but
it's
they
would
have
to
be.
Kathy
and
I
have
been
strategizing
on
how
to
present
this
to
the
public.
So
we
just
have
to
it's
something
to
think
about
anyways.
A
A
B
K
So
Kathy
the
parking
study
was
taken
into
consideration.
It
was
given
to
the
engineer
who
designed
the
Matthew
Street
project
or
the
Chevrolet
Village
project,
originally
in
2019
when
the
design
was
done.
For
that.
So
that's
been
I've
got
that
and
that's
been
taken
into
consideration
and
it
was
an
expensive
study
and
it
said
we
need
parking
everywhere.
K
P
K
We
actually
are
a
little
behind
on
the
guardrail
getting
underneath
the
guardrails,
but
in
lots
of
cases
the
ones
that
need
to
be
the
sand
that
needs
to
be
taken
out
from
underneath
the
guardrails
actually
takes
care
of
the
weeds.
When
we
do
that
as
well,
so
we
don't
have
to
do
that
same
job
twice,
but
that
all
is
typically
every
year
happens
around
when
the
students
start,
we
got
lots
of
traffic
control
and
lots
of
bodies
to
make
sure
it's
done
safely.
So.
E
K
Through
Madam
mayor
councilor
Gowdy,
we
actually
discussed
different
options
today,
so
we're
really
lucky.
As
some
of
you
counselors
may
know,
we
were
really
lucky
for
years
and
years
to
be
grandfathering.
Pricing
from
a
really
great
company
that
was
came
from
up
north
to
come
down
and
sweep
our
streets,
and
this
year,
our
first
year
without
being
able
to
utilize
that
contractor
it
was.
It
was
a
struggle
to
get
contractors
up
here.
K
This
far
so
and
more
expensive
Road
supervisor
brought
an
idea
to
the
table
today
about
possibly
renting
and
operating
a
machine
ourselves
which
could
actually
be
a
financial
savings
as
well.
So
definitely,
if
that
doesn't
become
an
option,
what
we're
going
to
do
is
should
have
been
done
a
long
time
ago.
We
just
got
so
lucky
with
that
pricing
that
he
was
grandfathering,
we'll
have
to
formalize
a
contract
and
we'll
include
the
sidewalks
and
and
we'll
have
to
put
date
dead
dates
and
liquidated
damages
if
they
don't
show
up.
P
K
Through
Madame
Meredith
counselor
Meeks,
all
of
our
new
projects
that
we've
done
there's
been
a
we
designed
them
for
a
three
meter.
Lane
and
0.75
meter
surface
treated
shoulder
so
in
certain
situations.
It
will
look
like
there's
a
shoulder,
but
it's
because
we
did
wider
surface
treatment
for
our
old
existing
roads
that
are
quite
narrow
and
don't
have
a
shoulder.
It's
not
as
simple
as
just
adding
gravel
to
bring
up
that
shoulder.
Now
we
have
done
lots
of
gravel
Reclamation
to
bring
it
back
up.
K
We
did
it
on
38,
we've
done
major
contracts
on
38
for
that
Crow
Lake
was
not
built
properly
and
wide
enough,
and
only
paved
with
one
lift
of
asphalt.
There's
a
couple
engineering
flaws
with
that
in
2018
or
whenever
that
was
done,
but
anything
that
we're
reconstructing
from
here
on
out
is
is
includes
as
wide
as
shoulders
as
we
can
possibly
get.
We
can't
just
add,
gravel
because
to
add
a
proper
gravel
shoulder
you're
talking
a
full
Road
reconstruction.
K
So
if
you're
talking
about
something
like
Crow
Lake
Road,
where
some
of
it
we
don't
even
own
the
property
we'd,
be
buying
land
and
we'd,
be
reconstructing
meters
out
past
the
edge
of
payment
to
get
a
solid
enough
base
to
create
a
solid
enough
shoulder
with
proper
drainage
and
everything.
That's
not
a
false
shoulder
or
you
drive
off,
and
it
feels
like
a
shoulder
and
then
it
actually
disappears
underneath
the
weight
of
your
vehicle,
so
anything
that
we
are
reconstructing
we're
widening,
but
for
existing
roads
we're
doing
our
best
to
reclaim
the
gravel.
K
Through
you,
madam
married
to
counselor
Erwin
I
met
with
the
contractor,
who
did
the
project
today
and
I
actually
met
with
him
about
getting
pricing
for
the
extension
of
the
project
because
now
we're
talking
about.
If
we
come
to
council
with
a
report,
we
might
be
proposing
that
we
do
some
asphalt
at
the
beach
parking
lot
as
well
anyways
when
I
met
with
that
contractor.
K
We
observed
that
this
exact
same
application
of
topsoil
seed
and
the
same
methods
of
insulation
were
performed
on
both
sides
of
Matthew
street,
so
the
North
Front
Knack
telephone
company
yard
and
that
residence
yard-
and
it's
a
it,
comes
down
to
an
issue
where,
just
like
any
Village
we're
gonna
have
to
what
we're
gonna
it's
not
about
reseeding
or
resoding.
It's
about
the
maintenance.
So
ever
since
the
project
that
Resident
has
actually
stopped
maintaining
you
can
see
where
they
cut
the
grass
right
down
until
the
construction
and,
let's
just
let
weeds
grow
up.
K
K
So
we
need
to
look
at
if
the
resident
is
going
to
continue
to
not
maintain
that
we're
gonna
have
to
add
it
to
our
to
our
grounds
maintenance
contract
to
MOA,
because
it
does
it
looks
terrible
but
reseeding
or
sorting.
If
it's
not,
if
nobody's
maintaining
it,
it's
not
going
to
help
so
I'm
glad.
You
brought
that
up
to
my
attention
because
I
I
went
there
today
and
it
was
might
be
a
bigger
issue
than
just
throwing
some
more
seed
down
and
watering.
K
A
D
C
H
C
K
Very
frustrating
process
because
we
watched
it
when
we
were
there,
we
pay
for
it,
they
perform
it,
they
choose
their
contractors,
they
choose
their
methods
and
we
weren't
satisfied
with
their
methods.
There's
no
situations.
I've
ever
came
across
where
you
need
to
have
eight
ten
inches
of
asphalt.
You
always
do
a
pop
proper
base,
gravel
and
you
know
even
on
the
401,
you
only
need
brand
new
401.
K
You
only
need
four
inches
of
asphalt,
Max,
there's
areas
where
that
have
settled
now,
since
then
they
had
eight
10
12
inches
of
asphalt
just
because
it
was
quicker
for
them
to
do
it.
That
way,
and
the
the
grading
of
the
approach
is
it's
there's
no
engineering
performed,
there
was
no
survey
shots
taken
as
far
as
any
time
I
was
there
there.
It
was.
There
was
nothing
so
very
frustrating
process
watching.
K
Oh
counselor
Meeks
is
right.
There's
I
brought
forward
if
we
wanted
to
pursue
that
there
is
an
agency
and
I
had
it
in
that
activity
report,
but
now
I'm
drawing
a
blank
on
the
name,
but
it's
some
kind
of
a
Canadian
Transportation
agency
that
does
work
with
municipalities
when
they
feel
they've
been
wronged
by
the
rail
Authority.
So
it's
I
don't
know
the
success
rate
of
that.
But
as
long
as
Council
wanted
to
authorize
that
it's
something
we
could
look
into.
A
K
E
A
It
and
the
caution
is
they'll,
tell
us
to
put
another
100
000
in
it
and
we
can
fix
it
so
keep
that
in
the
back
of
our
minds,
because
it
obviously
needs
to
be
brought
up,
so
we
can
negotiate,
but
we
have
to
wait
till
next
year's
budget
we're
going
to
actually
do
anything
because
they
won't
pay
for
it,
we'll
be
paying
for
it.
It's
that
simple.
P
F
A
A
All
right
next
is
is
that
all
for
Rhodes,
okay
sand?
Oh
right
here
we
go

Was
it
that
was
in
regards
to
comments
in
regards
to
what
the
lawyers
had
given
us
during
a
closed
session?
Okay
and
that's?
Why?
Because
I
said
we're
not
following
the
procedural
bylaw
we're
not
and
because
he
said
the
the
fact
that
we're
doing
a
lot
of
it's
human
resource
issues
that
if
you
open
a
meeting,
you
have
to
do
exactly
the
same
as
we
do
Council.
So
you
have
to
have
motions
to
open.
B
C
A
Q
B
A
H
E
A
F
Q
Q
A
They
do
a
good
job,
but
they're
not
available
to
do
things
like
parking
Saturday
afternoons,
it's
hard
to
get
them
to
come
out
unless
it's
something
drastic
or
Sundays,
where
if
we
had
our
own
bylaw
enforcement
officer,
those
could
be
the
days
of
the
week
that
they
work
in
the
summer.
And
you
know,
but
again
it's
it's
another
position.
It's
more
money
and
and.
Q
E
E
A
Q
Thank
you,
madam
answer.
You
one
thing
that
staff
have
been
talking
a
lot
about
and
and
hoping
to
move
towards
is
a
system
of
the
administrative
monetary
penalties
to
replace
some
of
the
fines
and
penalties
that
are
in
our
existing
bylaws,
because
they're
they're
a
lot
easier
to
enforce
and
a
lot
cheaper
to
enforce,
because
we
don't
have
to
go
through
the
courts.
Q
A
I
believe
the
county
has
also
gone
into
that
that
process
instead
of
going
through
the
courts.
So
it
is
definitely
something
that
goes
hand
in
hand
with
the
bylaw
enforcement
officer,
because
otherwise
we
spend
a
ton
of
we
spend
more
money
in
lawyers
in
a
courtroom
than
we
get
back
from
the
fines
that
we're
living
for
whatever
the
infraction
was
so
definitely
that
that's
the
first
step,
I
think
of
of
moving
it
Forward
good
discussion.
Okay,
all
those
in
favor
of
the
motion
hear
it.
A
All
right
moved
by
Susan
and
seconded
by
Lynn,
whereas
the
draft
procedural
bylaw
has
been
brought
to
council
over
the
past
few
months
for
review
and
whereas
a
special
meeting
was
held
on
April
the
26th,
to
review
the
changes
in
further
detail
and
where
a
staff
have
made
the
necessary
changes,
as
outlined
outlined
by
Council,
and
are
now
proceeding
the
presenting
the
final
procedural
bylaw.
Now,
therefore,
it
be
it
resolved.
The
council
considered
passing
the
bylaw
to
enact
the
procedural
bylaw
as
presented
later
in
the
meeting
Philip.
C
B
Actually,
today,
when
I
was
in
with
the
with
the
other
Frontenac
clerks,
when
we
were
doing
the
interviews
for
the
Integrity
commissioner,
we
did
talk
about
the
Truth
and
Reconciliation
and
that
whole
piece
about
the
land
acknowledgment
we're
trying
to
finalize
some
things,
because
I
think
there's
sort
of
discrepancies
as
to
how
much
we
put
in
this
land
acknowledgment.
And
of
course
it
came
from
the
government
and
it
came
from
the
government
in
the
first
place
after
they
did
the
94..
D
J
C
B
Does
it
doesn't
say
it's
it's
in
regards
to
I
will
give
you
the
report
from
the
other
and
I
know.
Cindy
was
in
on
the
with
some
of
the
clerks
and
stuff
as
meetings
as
well
about
the
land
acknowledgment.
It
doesn't
say
about
that.
They're
talking
about
Truth
and
Reconciliation
and
making
some
but
land
acknowledgment
is
part
and
parcel.
But
I
think
there's
been
some
discussions
back
and
forth
and
it's
to
get
something
that
we
need
and
I
know
self
Frontenac
said
today.
B
C
B
H
C
Q
Well,
we
we
could
keep
it
in
the
bylaw.
I
would
suggest
we
keep
it
in
the
bylaw
and
just
agree,
maybe
not
to
do
the
land
acknowledgment.
Until
the
report
comes
forward.
I
know
the
county
initially
had
the
drafted
a
report
and
had
hoped
to
have
it
circulated
by
the
June
27th
meeting.
However,
there's
been
a
lot
going
on
with
with
the
various
clerks
in
the
Integrity
commissioner,
rfps
and
whatnot.
So
maybe
that's.
Q
A
Q
E
Okay,
just
further
to
a
comment,
you
made
madameer
I'm
glad
that
you
spoke
to
Chief
Doreen,
but
did
you
also
speak
to
the
Algonquin
Chief
as
well,
because
they
we
have
equal
parts
of
of
both
here
so
to
not
be
in
a
precarious
situation.
We
need
to
to
acknowledge
both
the
algonquin's
and
the
shabbats.
Well,.
A
I
we
do,
we
don't
recognize
the
shabbats.
We
are
recognizing
the
territory
of
the
Algonquin
Nation,
so
that
covers
both
mm-hmm
and
and
that's
why
it's
worded
the
way
it
is
to
be
inclusive,
but
if,
if
you'd
rather
I,
stop
doing
it,
I
can
do
that,
but
yeah
it's
up
to
you.
Would
you
like
the
land
acknowledgment
to
be
stopped,
raise
your
hands?
How
many
would
like
me
to
stop
doing
it?
A
A
Okay
defeated
so
no
procedural
bylaw,
but
we
are
going
to
be
saying
the
land
acknowledgment
because
we
agreed
to
that
all
right.
Let's
move
on
to
community
policing,
moved
by
Susan
and
seconded
by
Lynn
that
Council
received
the
minutes
from
the
community
policing
advisory
committee
meeting
held
January
30th
2023
for
information,
any
questions
or
comments,
all
those
in

buried.

don't
need

one
away!

you!

third
time
and
finally
passed
this
27th
day
of
June
2023..
H
H
A
A
I
have
a
motion
moved
by
Nikki
and
seconded
by
Phillip
that
the
Council
of
Central
front
not
put
on
hold
the
sale
of
the
old
Hanson
Brook
School
property
located
on
Long
Lake
Road.
Until
the
council
completes
our
strategic
planning
exercise
and
set
our
priorities
for
the
next
three
and
a
half
years.
I
believe
that
there
is
an
appetite
for
the
development
of
that
site,
as
in
addition
to
our
Township
discussion.
L
L
A
A
O
Susan
follow
up
just
to
follow
up
in
terms
of
the
the
benefit,
because,
during
the
the
election
campaign
for
the
property
Council,
one
of
the
things
that
complaints
that
I
repeatedly
heard
was
that
why
did
the
township
Buy
hinchenberg?
Why
did
the
township
Buy
the
sharper
Lake
School
site?
Are
they
spending
all
that
money
for
so
I
I
just
need
to
understand
the
benefit
If?
There
really
is
this
appetite
since
it
wasn't
what
I
heard
not
I'm,
not
saying
it's
not
out
there.
I
just
haven't
heard
it.
O
E
We
have
a
soccer
association.
That's
now
renting
space
from
the
school
board
to
have
soccer
soccer
league,
so
that
property
is
perfect
for
putting
a
couple
of
soccer
fields
in
ideas
have
been
brought
up
about
a
community
garden
on
the
housing
front.
The
city
of
Kingston
is
willing
to
invest
money
in
our
area.
E
If
we
bring
in
a
developer
to
it,
so
housing
has
been
brought
up
numerous
times
during
the
communal
service
discussions
and
that
being
the
property
that
it
is,
it
could
be
tied
into
if
we
could
find
a
developer
for
communal
services
and
putting
housing
in
I.
Just
think
that
we
missed
the
boat,
and
now
we
need
to
look
at
what
we
could
put
in
there
to
be
a
benefit
for
the
township.
E
So
we
spent
just
over
a
hundred
thousand
to
tear
down
Charlotte
Lake
public
school
and
it's
sitting
there,
the
lot's
still
sitting
there
empty.
So
if
we
invest
a
hundred
thousand
and
we
bring
recreation
in
and
more
services,
possibly
housing,
it's
something
to
look
at
because
we
just
did
the
Strategic
plan
with
Frontenac,
County
and
housing
was
a
big
push
for
the
area.
H
A
O
Thank
you,
counselor
Nikki,
that
that
does
indeed
I
just
have
a
question
for
for
Cindy
I.
Think
when
we
talked
about
when
we
looked
at
the
Matrix
and
so
forth,
and
and
your
your
Research
indicates
that
you
had
we're
working
on
the
proposal,
the
request
for
proposals
and
that
you
have
been
keeping
a
list
of
people
who
were
interested
if
the
proposal
was
coming
forward.
O
Q
Through
you,
madam
mayor
to
counselor
Erwin,
yes,
I,
there's
been
at
least
four
individuals.
Who've
contacted
me,
contacted
me
and
they're
arranged
from
commercial
use,
housing
uses
and
a
mix
of
both
so
that
there's
some
some
interesting
ideas
out
there
for
sure
and
the
The
Matrix
I
think
provides
some
flexibility
to
allow
us
to
to
accept
or
not
accept
any
of
those
offers.
If
we
did
go
that
route.
Q
M
I
do
have
a
question,
though
so
just
so
I
understand
the
full
picture
here,
because
I
was
not
involved
in
the
purchase
of
the
school.
It
looks
like
we
purchased
school
for
a
hundred
and
ten
thousand
dollars
based
on
Charlotte
Lake
Public
School.
In
order
for
us
to
keep
the
property,
it's
going
to
cost
us
approximately
another
hundred
thousand
dollars
to
to
get
the
property
back
to
a
level
flat
piece
of
ground.
A

Q
Q
A
What
I've
been
told
there
is
some
asbestos,
but
it's
not
a
huge
amount,
but
what
they
found
at
the
Charlotte
Lake
public
school
was
the
paint
everything
is
enamel
which
has
asbestos
in
it,
and
even
though
they
thought
it
wasn't
a
lot,
it
turned
out
to
be
a
lot
and
that's
what
pushes
the
cost
up
so,
but
this.
So
what
you're
saying
here
is
is
leave,
leave
it
as
it
is
for
until
the
Strategic
plan
is
done
and
then
see
what
comes
out
of
that,
the
developers
are.
A
The
people
who
are
interested
now
will
probably
still
be
interested
two
or
three
months
down
the
road
and
we'll
have
a
better
idea.
What
people
think
about
where
we
should
be
going
with
it.
If
we
could
put
some
red
geared
income
housing
there,
it
would
be
fantastic
because
we
know
that
we
need
all
sorts
of
housing.
We
especially
need
housing
for
single
people
and
older
people
and
younger
people.

Q
C
P
I
was
just
going
to
say
when
I
talked
to
Mike.
It
was
only
like
a
thousand
dollars
a
year
for
the
school
for
grass,
cutting
and
stuff
like
that.
So
it's
not
a
huge
amount
that
we're
actually
putting
out
to
keep
the
school
for
now,
there's
Goodwills
on
it
and
septic
system
and
as
well.
We
use
it
for
backup
parking
and
the
fire
department
actually
trains
at
that
location.
A
L
A
All
right,
okay:
next,
we
have
moved
by
Philip
and
seconded
by
Nikki
that
staff
prepared
the
breakdown
and
costing
of
having
an
in-house
planner
for
the
township,
rather
than
subcontracting
the
planning
Services
out
to
the
county.
We
currently
have
a
backlog
in
the
planning
department
and
only
having
planning
staff
on
site.
One
day
of
the
week
is
not
helping
to
alleviate
this
issue.
I
would
like
to
see
the
difference
in
costs
between
the
two
options
and
for
it
to
be
considered
before
we
start
the
budget
process
in
October
for
2024.
A
E
A
A
O
O
O
I
wanted
this
on
on
new
business,
just
so
that
we
could
make
the
council
aware-
and
we've
been
talking
about
by
law
enforcement
and
parking,
and
all
of
that
so
we
I
understand
that
there
is
an
old
camping
sign
there.
I
I
saw
the
trailers.
There
were
two
trailers
on
the
weekends
against
the
trees.
It's
not
maybe.
H
D
A
A
Q
Oh,
thank
you
just
a
suggestion,
because
I
I
think
something
got
added
into
a
motion
earlier
in
the
meeting
about
working
on
a
parking,
bylaw
I
think
that
was
related
to
the
the
math
or
the
Cardinal
Cafe,
so
I
mean
we
can
certainly
incorporate
overnight
parking
and
in
that
bylaw
I
would
think
without
any
issue.
I
know
in
the
past
and
I
I
don't
know
if
it
was
last
summer
or
two
summers
ago.
Q
There
was
also
concerns
raised
at
some
of
the
boat
launches,
I
believe
because
I
think
there
had
been
some
I,
don't
know
if
it
was
boat
trailers
that
were
being
left
there
overnight.
So
I
think
that
has
been
an
ongoing
issue
too,
that
we
could
probably
address
in
that
by
law.
But
again
it
comes
down
to
the
enforcement
piece,
but
that's
something
that
amps
definitely
would
would
be
able
to
cover.
A
M
So
just
go
back
to
the
point
I
made
to
Tyson
earlier,
because
of
how
much
of
council's
time
is
involved
with
parking
as
a
whole.
I
really
do
think.
We
should
look
into
some
kind
of
parking
committee
to
deal
with
these
issues
throughout
the
entire
Township
proactively,
instead
of
it
coming
to
council
every
single
meeting
about
a
parking
issue
in
a
different
location,
but.
A
But
a
committee
tip
we,
we
typically
don't
appoint
committees
to
do
staff
work
they
they
are
the
ones
that
really
need
to
look
at
all
of
the
districts
and
not
just
one.
It's
it's.
It's
a
fine
line
between
committees
becoming
the
operations
people,
so
we
have
staff
that
can
do
it,
so
we
should
at
least
get
them
to
give
us
a
report.
Then,
if
we
think
they've
missed
something
we
can
certainly
let
them
know
what
we
think.
They've
missed
Cindy.
Q
A
A
E
A
H
E
E
A
Walk
it
over
to
the
township
office,
yep,
that's
a
simple
solution
without
a
resolution
without
a
resolution,
but
how
much
garbage
are
we
talking?
I
think
is
the
question
now
Caboose
Day
when
they
have
their
opening?
That's
going
to
be
probably
a
lot
of
a
fair
amount
of
garbage.
Although
yeah
there's
food
there,
they
have
food
and
drinks,
and
so
that
that
might
be
the
the
heaviest
part
of
the.
E
But
again
they're
bringing
people
into
the
township
that
day
that
might
go
to
the
Cardinal
and
get
a
donut
or
they
want
to
drink,
get
in
the
car
and
and
they're
cruising
around
and
oh
I
want
a
drink
before
I
head
home
or
they
stop
at
Mike
Dean's,
oh
I,
oh
there's
a
grocery
store,
I'll
grab
the
loaf
of
bread
or
the
bag
of
milk.
That
I
need.
E
A
A
H
A
A
D
E
We
know
more,
but
what
other
people
use
Municipal
land
for
a
tourist
attraction
in
our
Township,
like
that's
what
that's?
What
we're
talking
about
this
there?
They
are
promoting
a
tourist
attraction
on
our
land
on
Township,
only
land.
So
what's
who
else
in
the
township
will
be
coming,
knocking
on
the
door
that
has
a
tourist
attraction
in
the
township
on
Municipal
land?
We
already
pick
up
the
garbage
at
every
facility
site,
so
the
ball
diamonds
and
the
Halls
that
and
that,
so
what
what
other
I'm
lost?
What
other
yeah
I.
A
A
All
right,
okay,
I
think
we
need
to
have
a
bit
of
a
recess
after
we
go
well
not
yet.
We
need
to
we're
going
to
read
the
motion
to
go
into
closed
and
then
yeah.
Then
we
can
have
our
five
minute
break:
okay,
so
moved
by
Dan
and
seconded
by
Nikki
that
Council
moved
into
closed
session
pursuant
to
section
2392
of
the
municipal
act
to
discuss
a
proposed
or
pending
acquisition
or
disposition
of
land
by
the
municipality
or
local
board.
