His Worship Robert Grossi<br />
Mayor, <strong>Town</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Georgina</strong><br />
26557 Civic Centre Road<br />
Keswick, Ontario L4P 3G1<br />
Dear Mayor Grossi,<br />
On April 17, 2013, the Greater Toronto CivicAction Alliance (CivicAction) brought together senior and<br />
rising leaders to accelerate transportation investment for the prosperity <strong>of</strong> the Greater Toronto and<br />
Hamilton Area (GTHA).<br />
After a day at the CivicAction Forum: Our Region, Our Move, these regional and international leaders<br />
from business, labour, academia, not-for-pr<strong>of</strong>it and other sectors had this advice for Metrolinx and<br />
governments at all levels: Get on with it, make the most <strong>of</strong> it, and take better care <strong>of</strong> our money<br />
while you're at it.<br />
1. Implement revenue tools now with five principles in mind<br />
2. Maximize social and economic benefits by collaborating with communities and stakeholders<br />
3. Accountability and transparency are not optional<br />
4. Build support and trust through communication that "makes it real" and shows us how we will<br />
get the biggest bang for our buck. ·<br />
The attached report conveys the views <strong>of</strong> these leaders. They want their views to inform the Metrolinx<br />
Investment Strategy to fund the rest <strong>of</strong> The Big Move regional transportation plan, and to guide<br />
elected <strong>of</strong>ficials as they act on the strategy once it is submitted by June 1, 2013. Other cities in<br />
Canada and internationally, from Vancouver, to Los Angeles, to New York, to London, are tapping a<br />
range <strong>of</strong> new, sustainable sources to build better transportation systems.<br />
Now it's our turn.<br />
With new investment in our transportation system, we can build healthy and vibrant communities,<br />
compete globally, and stop eroding the time we have to do the things that matter most -like eating<br />
well, spending time with friends and family, and watching our kids grow up.<br />
Right now, if you haven't already, you can demonstrate to your constituents that you are committed to<br />
investing in a better transportation system by visiting your32.com and joining over 1000 residents and<br />
nearly 50 elected <strong>of</strong>ficials who have already pledged their support.<br />
And as you move forward with new investment, we urge you to act on these recommendations. Let's<br />
get on with building our future.<br />
Sincerely,<br />
Mitzie Hunter<br />

Preface<br />
On April 17, 2013, 300 civic leaders from across the Greater<br />
Toronto and Hamilton Area (GTHAl convened at the C1vicAction<br />
Forum: Our Region, Our Move. The event marked a milestone<br />
in CivicAction's Your32 campaign and in our region's efforts to<br />
tackle its traffic congestion cris1s.<br />
We're at a critical moment. Transportation in the GTHA has<br />
been chronically underfunded for decades and we have<br />
reached a breaking pomt. The time for talk is over. There are<br />
actions we can take to reduce congestion, such as spending<br />
existing tax dollars wisely, making work hours flexible, and<br />
car-pooling. We also need to invest significantly more in<br />
increased service and road, transit, cycling, and pedestrian<br />
infrastructure.<br />
From politicians to CEOs and labour leaders, from college<br />
presidents to students and community leaders, delegates<br />
are affected by the state <strong>of</strong> our current system and therefore<br />
highly motivated to make it better. They, along with members<br />
<strong>of</strong> CivicAction's Regional Transportation Champions Council<br />
an d Regional Co-Captains, pushed to accelerate the investment<br />
we need under the terms that are acceptable to GTHA<br />
residents.<br />
The event took place at a historic window <strong>of</strong> opportunity in the<br />
weeks leading up to June 1, 2013. That's the date by which<br />
Metrolinx must submit its recommendations to the Province<br />
and heads <strong>of</strong> GTHA municipal councils on how to pay for the<br />
rest <strong>of</strong> The Big Move- the approved 25-year, $50 billion plan<br />
that will dramatically improve how people and goods move<br />
across the GTHA.<br />
18<br />
Governments at all levels- munic ipal, provincial, and<br />
federal- will need to collaborate to ensure that our region<br />
has the transportation service and infrastructure 1t needs to<br />
continue to grow and prosper. To help our elected <strong>of</strong>ficials<br />
move forward on the path to action, CivicAction has launched<br />
the "pledge to get a move on," which calls on civic leaders,<br />
residents, and elected <strong>of</strong>ficia ls to support new funding sources<br />
that are dedicated, efficient, transparent & accountable,<br />
regional, fair, and sustainable.<br />
At CivicAction's your32.com, residents can pledge to be part<br />
<strong>of</strong> the solution and challenge their political leaders to do the<br />
same.<br />
Nobody wa nts to write a blank cheque. Governments need<br />
to assure the public that their money will be spent on<br />
transportation, and spent well. With unprecedented investment<br />
comes extraordinary opportunity. We need to ensure our<br />
transportation investment delivers the maximum social and<br />
economic impact for dolla rs spent.<br />
This report captures the recommendations that CivicAction<br />
Forum delegates want Metrolinx, governments, and elec ted~<br />
<strong>of</strong>ficials to heed as they move to build the transportation<br />
system we so urgently need.<br />
We all need to be champions for better transportation in our<br />
region.<br />
It's our region, our move. So let's get moving.<br />
With this report, CivicAction presents delegates' feedback to<br />
Metrolinx and GTHA elected <strong>of</strong>ficials as outlined in four key<br />
recommendations:<br />

unanimously passed the attached motion that we are "Not a Willing Host" community for<br />
Industrial Wind Turbine Projects.<br />
We are one <strong>of</strong> the many Ontario communities that have had no choice in the<br />
matter <strong>of</strong> whether we are willing and equipped to undertake having these mega projects<br />
invade and forever change the rural landscape <strong>of</strong> our community. Our municipality<br />
already has limited financial resources for maintaining our aging infrastructure and now<br />
we are being forced into straining these resources even further with having to hire<br />
solicitors, engineers and project co-ordinators, as small municipalities <strong>of</strong> our size do not<br />
have the human or economic resources to adequately deal with these highly technical<br />
projects in order to ensure our citizens are properly protected now and in the future.<br />
These projects are being forced onto communities with no regard on how this will<br />
impact these resources and more importantly the health and safety issues that are<br />
attributed to these IWT's.<br />
We are forwarding our motion to all Ontario municipalities, local M.P.P., Monte<br />
McNaughton and local M.P., Bev Shipley, as well as Ontario Progressive Conservative<br />
Leader, Tim Hudak and Ontario NOP Leader, Andrea Howarth for their support and<br />
endorsement.<br />

MOTION<br />
DATE: MAY 6, 2013<br />
MOVED BY COUNCILLOR CORNELISSEN<br />
SECONDED BY COUNCILLOR MCUNCHEY<br />
WHEREAS the Premier o'f Ontario has recently conveyed the Governments desire to<br />
limit Industrial Wind Turbine (IWT) Projects to communities that are willing hosts;<br />
AND WHEREAS Council for the Municipality <strong>of</strong> North Middlesex has received a clear<br />
message from its residents that they are not willing to host to IWTs in North Middlesex;<br />
AND WHEREAS Council for the Municipality <strong>of</strong> North Middlesex applauds the position<br />
taken by the Premier and the Government;<br />
AND WHEREAS Council represents all citizens within the Municipality, both those in<br />
favour <strong>of</strong> wind projects and those opposed. As a result, Council needs to maintain a fair<br />
and balanced viewpoint;<br />
AND WHEREAS council is very concerned that the Green Energy Act has substantially<br />
changed the rules for municipalitiE~s with respect to wind farm developments by<br />
removing municipal control over development applications through the traditional zoning<br />
rer

THEREFORE based on the consistent position <strong>of</strong> Council for the Municipality <strong>of</strong> North<br />
Middlesex and the input received from the community regarding IWf's, the Province <strong>of</strong><br />
Ontario and specifically thl~ Ministry <strong>of</strong> Environment be now advised that the<br />
Municipality <strong>of</strong> North Middlesex is "NOT A WILLING HOST" for IWT's;<br />
AND THAT this resolution be circulated to Premier Kathleen Wynne, as well as to the<br />

3. BACKGROUND I PROPOSAL<br />
Greengate Village Limited is in the process <strong>of</strong> fulfilling the conditions <strong>of</strong> draft plan<br />
approval in order to register its approved Draft Plan <strong>of</strong> Subdivision 19T-04G013.<br />
On June 9, 2008, Council considered Report PB-2008-0059 respecting the
40<br />
-Page 2 <strong>of</strong> Report No.PB-2013-0054-<br />
above noted lands and approved the aforementioned 57 lot draft plan <strong>of</strong><br />
subdivision and associated zoning by-law amendment applications submitted by<br />
1646182 Ontario Inc., the landowner at that time. The approved Draft Plan and<br />
conditions <strong>of</strong> approval <strong>of</strong> the draft plan are attached hereto as Schedules '2' and<br />
'3' respectively.<br />
On May 9, 2011 , Council considered Report PB-2011-0035 and approved a<br />
request by the current landowner, Greengate Village limited, for an extension to<br />
the draft plan approval review period from June 24, 2011 to June 24, 2014.<br />
The landowner's consultant, Bousfields Inc., has prepared and submitted a report<br />
entitled, "Urban Design and Architectural Control Guidelines" dated May 2013<br />
which was received as a consolidated document. The guidelines have been<br />
prepared in order to fulfill conditions 17 through 19 <strong>of</strong> the draft plan <strong>of</strong> subdivision<br />
and the intent is to establish urban design and architectural design objectives<br />
and performance standards for the subdivision. In consultation with the <strong>Town</strong>'s<br />
peer reviewer, Planning staff have been working with the applicant and their<br />
consultant to finalize the guidelines.<br />
Further, in accordance with condition 33, the landowner has prepared and<br />
submitted a draft amending zoning by-law and Planning staff have worked with<br />
them to finalize the by-law which will be presented to Council for passing at the<br />
next Council meeting. This matter is further discussed in Section 5.1 below.<br />
The purpose <strong>of</strong> this report is to seek Council's approval <strong>of</strong> the Urban and<br />
Architectural Design Guidelines dated May 2013, attached hereto as Schedule<br />
'4'. Staff note that the applicant's consultant will be giving a PowerPoint<br />
presentation <strong>of</strong> the guidelines during the Committee <strong>of</strong> the Whole meeting.<br />
Furthermore, in light <strong>of</strong> the timeframe that has lapsed since Council's approval <strong>of</strong><br />
Zoning By-law Amendment Application 03.933 submitted to implement the<br />
subdivision, Section 5.1 below provides a summary <strong>of</strong> the zoning matters and<br />
presents a final draft amending zoning by-law for Council's information (see<br />
Schedule '5').<br />
4. DISCUSSION:<br />
4.1 Urban and Architectural Design Guidelines:<br />
In accordance with draft plan approval conditions 17 through 19, the applicant is<br />
required to submit an Urban Design Report and Architectural Design Guidelines<br />
for Council's review and approval. Additionally, the applicant is required to enter<br />
into a subdivision agreement with the <strong>Town</strong> setting out that all development will<br />
proceed in accordance with Urban and Architectural Design Guidelines approved<br />
by <strong>Town</strong> Council. Further, the landowner is responsible for retaining a Design
41<br />
-Page 3 <strong>of</strong> Report No.PB-2013-0054-<br />
Control Architect to ensure compliance with same prior to building permit<br />
issuance (see Schedule '3').<br />
The Urban Design section <strong>of</strong> the report addresses matters relating to: (i) the<br />
overall neighbourhood structure (i.e. open space, the built form, parking<br />
standards and locations; (ii) the public realm streetscape and landscaping,<br />
fencing, street fixtures/poles/signs, utility boxes, vaults and service pedestals;<br />
and (iii) architectural elements such as architectural styles, special treatment for<br />
corner lots and high exposure rear/side elevations, setbacks from the streetline,<br />
massing and clustering, exterior colours and materials and driveways. Also<br />
addressed in the report is the implementation <strong>of</strong> the guidelines through the<br />
builder's Design Control Architect at the building permit stage.<br />
Planning staff retained an outside consultant to undertake a peer review <strong>of</strong> the<br />
Guidelines against the policies <strong>of</strong> the Keswick Secondary Plan and the<br />
associated Urban Design Guidelines appended thereto. The consultant<br />
recommended several changes to the Guidelines, including revisions with<br />
respect to the architectural care and treatment <strong>of</strong> corner lot models, upgrades for<br />
high exposure rear/side elevations for lots backing onto the open space/walkway<br />
(i.e. include bay windows, porch feature), front fa
42<br />
-Page 4 <strong>of</strong> Report No.PB-2013-0054-<br />
site specific provisions, and to apply an Open Space (OS) zone to the remainder<br />
<strong>of</strong> the lands.<br />
The 'R1-138' zone is proposed for the 12 m frontage lots located on the south<br />
and northeast sides <strong>of</strong> Tim Jacobs Drive (proposed internal subdivision road)<br />
while the 'R1-139' zone is proposed for the 15 m frontage lots on the north and<br />
northwest sides <strong>of</strong> the road. The amending by-law outlines the special standards<br />
for development in accordance with urban and architectural control guidelines,<br />
including provisions with respect to the minimum lot area, garage projections,<br />
fencing, porches, lot coverage and a reduced setback from the hypotenuse <strong>of</strong> the<br />
sight triangle on corner lots etc. (see Schedule '5').<br />
The Open Space (OS) zone will apply to the proposed stormwater management<br />
facility and park linkages; being the areas identified as Blocks 58, 59, 60 and 61<br />
on the draft approved plan (see Schedule '2'). Additional lands included in the<br />
OS zone are the existing stormwater channel/pedestrian channel which was<br />
conveyed to the <strong>Town</strong> as part <strong>of</strong> the subdivision process. Said lands are<br />
identified as <strong>Town</strong> Owned Land on Schedule '1' attached hereto. The OS zone<br />
permits a limited range <strong>of</strong> uses including conservation and forestry, park,<br />
refreshment booth and accessory buildings, structures and uses to any permitted<br />
use.<br />
As already mentioned, the draft amending zoning by-law will be brought forward<br />
for adoption at the next Council meeting.<br />

1.0 INTRODUCTION<br />
Intent <strong>of</strong> Guidelines<br />
These Guidelines apply to residential<br />
subdivision 19T-04G03 - Part Lot 6, Con<br />
3 (NG) in the Community <strong>of</strong> Keswick, as<br />
established in the Keswick Secondary Plan<br />
in the <strong>Town</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Georgina</strong>. Their intent is to<br />
establish urban design and architectural<br />
design objectives and performance standards<br />
for residential development which:<br />
1) Help to implement the goals <strong>of</strong> the<br />
Keswick Secondary Plan (Official Plan<br />
Amendment 93) including:<br />
•To provide an efficient, healthy, and<br />
safe community for the present and<br />
future residents <strong>of</strong> Keswick.<br />
• To promote and strengthen<br />
community identity.<br />
•To ensure that new development is<br />
integrated with existing land uses in a<br />
logical, orderly and efficient manner.<br />
2) Incorporate the Keswick Urban Design<br />
Guidelines, prepared for the <strong>Town</strong> <strong>of</strong><br />
<strong>Georgina</strong> by The Planning Partnership, in<br />
August 2003, where possible, having regard<br />
for the existing built form context and the<br />
established road pattern.<br />
In addition to addressing architectural<br />
treatment within the private realm, these<br />
Design Guidelines address public realm design<br />
issues such as:<br />
The creation <strong>of</strong> a sense <strong>of</strong> identity for<br />
the lands within the plan <strong>of</strong> subdivision.<br />
Connecting with the abutting lands to the<br />
north and east and ensuring compatibility<br />
between existing and planned subdivisions.<br />
The Developer and Builders shall comply<br />
with these Guidelines throughout the design,<br />
marketing and building process and shall only<br />
<strong>of</strong>fer for sale those dwelling designs given<br />
approval by the Control Architect. Approvals<br />
by the Control Architect do not release the<br />
Builder from complying with the requirements<br />
<strong>of</strong> the Project Engineer, the <strong>Town</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Georgina</strong><br />
or any other approval agency.<br />
1.1 COMMUNITY CONCEPT<br />
The new residential area comprises the<br />
subdivision located east <strong>of</strong> The Queensway,<br />
south <strong>of</strong> Dovedale Avenue and north <strong>of</strong><br />
Glenwoods Avenue with access directly <strong>of</strong>f<br />
Lownes Avenue and contains a mix <strong>of</strong> single<br />
detached dwellings.<br />
Other elements <strong>of</strong> the subdivision include:<br />
open spaces comprised <strong>of</strong> Blocks 58 and<br />
59 (see Figure 2);<br />
a stormwater management pond on Block<br />
61 between lots 33 and 34 (see Figure 2);<br />

a storm water channel on Block 60 at the<br />
southeast corner <strong>of</strong> the site; and<br />
a future road extension (i.e. Dovedale<br />
Avenue) directly north <strong>of</strong> lot 26 on Block<br />
64.<br />
tree-lined streets and an integrated network <strong>of</strong><br />
open space areas.<br />
1.3 GUIDELINE OBJECTIVES<br />
Existing residential uses lie to the immediate<br />
north and west <strong>of</strong> the draft plan. Lands to the<br />
immediate east are vacant and are owned by<br />
the applicant.<br />
Other uses in the immediate area include an<br />
Open Space/SWM facility directly to the south<br />
<strong>of</strong> the site. Further south, on the south side<br />
<strong>of</strong> the proposed storm water channel is an<br />
existing school property.<br />
1.2 DESIGN VISION<br />
The design vision for this development is<br />
to create an efficient, attractive, healthy<br />
and safe residential neighbourhood which<br />
creates a sense <strong>of</strong> identity through the<br />
design <strong>of</strong> housing, streets and open space<br />
that residents and visitors can recognize as<br />
characteristics <strong>of</strong> the community.<br />
The design and construction <strong>of</strong> new housing<br />
should integrate a variety <strong>of</strong> housing forms,<br />
and encourage the use <strong>of</strong> front yards and<br />
building facades to facilitate social interaction<br />
on the street and security within the<br />
community. Pedestrian comfort and amenity<br />
should be addressed through the provision <strong>of</strong><br />
The following objectives will be encouraged<br />
and articulated throughout these Guidelines to<br />
reinforce the community design vision:<br />
to provide an attractive enclave <strong>of</strong><br />
detached homes situated on a street well<br />
integrated within the existing framework <strong>of</strong><br />
streets;<br />
to provide attractive, high quality and<br />
pedestrian friendly streetscapes through<br />
attention to the design <strong>of</strong> the public realm,<br />
built form, architectural detailing and the<br />
appropriate siting <strong>of</strong> buildings;<br />
to provide an appropriate integration with<br />
the existing character <strong>of</strong> the Keswick<br />
Community, particularly the residential<br />
development adjacent to the morth;<br />
to ensure a harmonious variety <strong>of</strong><br />
architectural styles, building materials and<br />
colouring within the draft plan area;<br />
to identify specific design requirements for<br />
buildings located in high priority locations<br />
such as adjacent to open space areas;<br />
to provide sufficient flexibility within the<br />
Guidelines to promote innovation and<br />
variety; and<br />
to establish the requirements for a timely<br />
and fair implementation process.<br />

2.0 NEIGHBOURHOOD STRUCTURE<br />
2.1 INTRODUCTION<br />
The structure <strong>of</strong> the residential enclave, has<br />
been established in draft plan 19T-04G03, as<br />
shown on Figure 2, Context Map which lays<br />
out the street pattern, lotting pattern and the<br />
distribution <strong>of</strong> land uses within the existing<br />
framework <strong>of</strong> streets and open spaces.<br />
The opportunity for strengthening the existing<br />
neighbourhood can be realized through the<br />
implementation <strong>of</strong> the following urban design<br />
objectives:<br />
2.2<br />
conserving natural land forms;<br />
providing attractive streetscapes through<br />
attention to the relationship between public<br />
and private spaces, the design within the<br />
public spaces, and the identification <strong>of</strong><br />
priority private lots where appropriate;<br />
establishing landscaping and design<br />
principles for the public realm.<br />
HOUSING<br />
These guidelines are intended to encourage<br />
the provision <strong>of</strong> a variety <strong>of</strong> housing types,<br />
reduced front yard setbacks to reinforce the<br />
street edge, and garages located to minimize<br />

a varied streetscape. The architectural style<br />
<strong>of</strong> the dwellings should be compatible but<br />
should allow variation in height, side and<br />
front yard setbacks, massing and the ro<strong>of</strong>line.<br />
Buildings should have front walls parallel to<br />
the street to create a consistent view. Priority<br />
Lot unit designs should have special features<br />
emphasizing their role.<br />
2.3 ENTRY<br />
There are two points <strong>of</strong> entry into the<br />
subdivision, one from Lowndes Avenue to the<br />
west and one from Dovedale Avenue to the<br />
north.<br />
2.4 STREET PATTERN<br />
A new road (shown as Street 'A' on Figure<br />
2) having a 20 m right-<strong>of</strong>-way provides a<br />
vehicular connection between Lowndes<br />
Avenue to the west and Dovedale Avenue<br />
to the north. Lots 1 and 57 include frontages<br />
along Lowndes Avenue while lots 25 and 26<br />
include frontages along Dovedale Avenue.<br />
The new roads, including a future extension <strong>of</strong><br />
Dovedale Avenue within the draft plan will be<br />
designed in accordance with <strong>Town</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Georgina</strong><br />
municipal standards, recognizing the overall<br />
streetscape design proposed for the draft plan.<br />

2.5 OPEN SPACE<br />
The draft plan <strong>of</strong> subdivision includes open<br />
space blocks (i.e. Block 58 and 59). The<br />
natural features <strong>of</strong> these blocks are to be<br />
preserved as required by the Lake Simcoe<br />
Region Conservation Authority (LSRCA).<br />
Any future design work to these blocks will be<br />
in consultation with the LSRCA and the <strong>Town</strong><br />
<strong>of</strong> <strong>Georgina</strong>.<br />
Further, storm water management areas shall<br />
be designed in a manner that is safe and<br />
contributed to the overall design and appeal <strong>of</strong><br />
the open space areas and neighbourhood.<br />
i. On-Street Parking<br />
On-street parking shall be permitted on all local<br />
roads:<br />
- to allow for an efficient use <strong>of</strong> the<br />
public infrastructure;<br />
- to provide a separation between<br />
pedestrians and vehicular traffic;<br />
- to act as a traffic calming device;<br />
- to provide convenience for residents<br />
and visitors.<br />
It should be noted that the <strong>Town</strong> does have<br />
a Parking By-law which contains regulations<br />
respecting time limits on parking.<br />
2.6 BUILT FORM<br />
The built form plays a role in re-inforcing the<br />
community structure and in addressing the<br />
design objectives for the community. How to<br />
achieve these objectives varies depending on<br />
location and building type. Guidelines for built<br />
form are set out in the following sections.<br />
ii. Driveway Parking<br />
Although driveway parking is an essential<br />
part <strong>of</strong> the operation <strong>of</strong> a low density, groundoriented<br />
home, the intent <strong>of</strong> the urban design<br />
guidelines is to minimize the impact <strong>of</strong><br />
driveways and garages on the streetscape.<br />
The following design guidelines are<br />
established for driveway parking.<br />
62<br />
2.7 PARKING STANDARDS and<br />
LOCATIONS<br />
The intent is to allow and provide for sufficient<br />
parking for residents and visitors within<br />
residential areas while minimizing the impact<br />
<strong>of</strong> driveways, parking areas and dominant<br />
garages to the streetscape.<br />
pairing <strong>of</strong> driveways is encouraged on<br />
adjacent lots, where appropriate and<br />
feasible;<br />
adjacent to open space blocks driveways<br />
shall be located, away from the open<br />

acknowledging through design and<br />
landscaping, the role <strong>of</strong> streets as areas<br />
for recreation and socializing as well as for<br />
vehicular and pedestrian movement;<br />
providing views to natural features and<br />
important architectural features; and<br />
The design <strong>of</strong> the streetscape shall be<br />
generally in accordance with the street<br />
cross sections as shown in the Keswick<br />
Urban Design Guidelines.<br />
3.1 STREETSCAPE LANDSCAPING<br />
Streetscape landscaping should include:<br />
maintaining a consistent form <strong>of</strong> street<br />
tree;<br />
trees to be planted at a minimum 1Om<br />
interval;<br />
minimum caliper size in accordance with<br />
the <strong>Town</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Georgina</strong> Standards;<br />
the variety and species being selected<br />
Fences help distinguish the edge <strong>of</strong> the private<br />
realm, contribute to the landscape quality <strong>of</strong><br />
the neighbourhood, and identify the path to the<br />
front door.<br />
They should be low enough to maintain a<br />
view <strong>of</strong> the street from the front windows and<br />
porches.<br />
Enhanced fencing shall be provided around<br />
that portion <strong>of</strong> the rear and side yard which<br />
is adjacent to and/or highly visible from the<br />
street and public open space/park area. The<br />
enhanced rear yard fencing on all corner<br />
lots shall be <strong>of</strong> a privacy fence construction<br />
and shall be attached to the rear wall <strong>of</strong> the<br />
dwelling. Fencing is to be constructed by the<br />
builder and shown on the Master Landscape<br />
Plan.<br />
The maximum fence height shall be in<br />
accordance with <strong>Town</strong> Standards in the<br />
rear yard, as well as in the interior side<br />
yard to the mid point <strong>of</strong> the interior sidewall<br />
<strong>of</strong> the dwelling. The maximum height <strong>of</strong><br />

utility meters should be screened from view<br />
and incorporated into the overall design <strong>of</strong><br />
housing unit;<br />
note that hydro meters will be located on<br />
interior sideyards <strong>of</strong> housing.<br />
3.3 STREET FIXTURES, POLES AND<br />
SIGNS<br />
Street fixtures, poles and signs are important<br />
elements in the streetscape. Therefore, every<br />
effort should be made to ensure that they are<br />
co-ordinated in their design and placement.<br />
Character street lighting may be utilized.<br />
3.4 UTILITY BOXES, VAULTS AND<br />
SERVICE PEDESTALS<br />

4.0 PRIORITY LOCATIONS<br />
Priority locations are usually identified as lots<br />
which are located in positions <strong>of</strong> high public<br />
visibility within the public realm, or which have<br />
special requirements such as corner lots and<br />
lots adjacent to parks, walkways or open<br />
spaces.<br />
4.1 CORNER LOT DWELLINGS<br />
There are four corner lots within the<br />
development. The quality <strong>of</strong> the unit design<br />
on these lots should be reflective <strong>of</strong> the<br />
importance <strong>of</strong> their location. All elevations<br />
visible from public roads should have<br />
consistent level <strong>of</strong> articulation, window<br />
detailing and use <strong>of</strong> materials.<br />
the location <strong>of</strong> the main entrance or<br />
entrance feature, which is encouraged to<br />
be located on the flanking street;<br />
distinctive architectural features such as<br />
wrap around porches, recessed porches,<br />
turrets or bay windows<br />
providing rear elevations which are<br />
consistent with the front and flanking<br />
elevations in terms <strong>of</strong> materials, detail and<br />
design;<br />
privacy fencing shall be provided in<br />
accordance with Section 3.2;<br />
the provision <strong>of</strong> compatible architectural<br />
styles, elements and details for buildings<br />
on opposite corners;<br />
fencing should not be returned too<br />
far along the side elevation so as to<br />
obstruct architectural features on flanking<br />
elevations.<br />
65<br />
Built form at the corners should be<br />
emphasized through variation in massing,<br />
window style and/or use <strong>of</strong> wrap-around<br />
porches.<br />
The use <strong>of</strong> design elements such as bay<br />
windows facing the street is encouraged.<br />
The design <strong>of</strong> corner lot dwellings shall have<br />
regard for:<br />
architectural detailing, height and massing;<br />
the provision <strong>of</strong> generous windows,<br />
preferably into habitable rooms, on the<br />
flanking elevation;<br />
4.3<br />
HIGH EXPOSURE REAR/SIDE<br />
ELEVATIONS<br />
Dwellings which are located on reverse<br />
frontage lots, flank an open space block, or<br />
a pedestrian walkway enjoy a similar visual<br />
prominence as conventional corner lots.<br />
To ensure that the design <strong>of</strong> the dwellings<br />
contributes to the overall attractiveness <strong>of</strong> the<br />

5.0 ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN<br />
CRITERIA<br />
5.1 ARCHITECTURAL STYLES<br />
The design <strong>of</strong> housing for the subdivision is<br />
expected to show the identifiable influence <strong>of</strong><br />
traditional architectural styles compatible with<br />
those in the general vicinity. These guidelines<br />
are intended to assist the builder's architect<br />
to design products that are compatible and<br />
attractive in appearance, and are not intended<br />
to impose any particular built form or historical<br />
style.<br />
The following objectives related to<br />
architectural style should be taken into<br />
consideration in the design <strong>of</strong> units:<br />
traditional architectural styles that<br />
should influence the character <strong>of</strong> the<br />
neighbourhood include, but are not limited<br />
to, Georgian, Colonial, Victorian (Queen<br />
Anne, Old Ontario, Gothic Revival)<br />
ltalianate and Tudor Revival;<br />
the design <strong>of</strong> individual buildings<br />
should have characteristics <strong>of</strong> a single<br />
architectural style on all elevations - the<br />
mixing <strong>of</strong> dominant architectural styles<br />
shall not be permitted;<br />
detailing appropriate to a specific<br />
architectural style includes details for all<br />
visual elements such as front entrance<br />
designs, porch elements and dormer<br />
structures;<br />
projecting elements such as bay, bow,<br />
box bay windows, entry stoops, porches,<br />
porticos, ro<strong>of</strong> dormers, alcoves and<br />
balconies should provide detail and<br />
articulation appropriate to the architectural<br />
style;<br />
regardless <strong>of</strong> architectural style there<br />
should be a greater proportion <strong>of</strong> detailing<br />
and building elements (doors, windows,<br />
porches) on the elevations which are<br />
exposed to public view;<br />
a variety <strong>of</strong> elevation treatments should be<br />
provided between unit types and alternate<br />
elevations including symmetrical and<br />
asymmetrical elevations;<br />
minimum main ro<strong>of</strong> slopes shall be 6:12<br />
front to back and on hip ro<strong>of</strong>s the side<br />
slopes shall be 10:12. Lower ro<strong>of</strong> slopes<br />
will be considered where appropraite to the<br />
architectural style;<br />
porch ro<strong>of</strong> slopes may be a lower pitch<br />
minimum <strong>of</strong>4:12; and<br />
ro<strong>of</strong>s should display a variety <strong>of</strong><br />
architectural embellishments (dormers,<br />
gables) and these embellishments shall<br />
have s<strong>of</strong>fit trim consistent with the style <strong>of</strong><br />
the proposed architecture. Further, ro<strong>of</strong>s<br />
should have frieze boards on exposed<br />
elevations with 1.2 metre return or to a wall<br />
plane change.<br />

5.5 HOUSES WITH INTEGRAL FRONT<br />
GARAGES<br />
The following objectives related to integral<br />
front garages should be taken into<br />
consideration in the design <strong>of</strong> units in order<br />
to minimize the impact <strong>of</strong> the impact <strong>of</strong> the<br />
garage on the streetscape:<br />
a variety in the unit massing should<br />
be provided along all neighbourhood<br />
streetscapes; and<br />
the dwelling mass should be located closer<br />
to the street line in order to provide more<br />
"eyes on the street".<br />
the ground and second floor front wall <strong>of</strong><br />
dwelling shall be no greater than 3 metres<br />
behind the face <strong>of</strong> the garage;<br />
second floor over garage portion <strong>of</strong> the<br />
house must cover a minimum <strong>of</strong> 75% <strong>of</strong><br />
the garage width;<br />
where the face <strong>of</strong> a garage is situated in<br />
front <strong>of</strong> a dwelling, a porch or entry feature<br />
shall be provided that is flush with or<br />
forward <strong>of</strong> the garage;<br />
while it is intended that only attached<br />
garages are to be constructed in this<br />
development, where detached garages are<br />
constructed they shall be in the rear yard<br />
and shall be <strong>of</strong> the same architectural style<br />
and building material as the companion<br />
dwelling;<br />
builders will be requ ired to prepare plans<br />
for single car garage housing types, as an<br />
option for all detached lots. This is in order<br />
to provide the public with a choice in the<br />
marketplace;<br />
the garage mass should be integrated<br />
within the mass <strong>of</strong> the dwelling;<br />
porches shall be a useable depth with a<br />

detached units are that:<br />
To ensure the development <strong>of</strong> streetscapes<br />
with a variety <strong>of</strong> designs, alternative unit<br />
designs shall be <strong>of</strong>fered, providing different<br />
elevations for each floor plan layout.<br />
repeating popular elevations/models is not<br />
acceptable because it does not encourage<br />
variety nor promote neighbourhood<br />
identity;<br />
the siting <strong>of</strong> identical elevations side by<br />
side is not allowed;<br />
identical elevations shall be separated<br />
by a minimum <strong>of</strong> 2 dwellings and can not<br />
comprise more than 30% <strong>of</strong> a street block<br />
or be sited more than 3 times within any<br />
row <strong>of</strong> 1 0 dwellings;<br />
alternative architectural styles should<br />
provide different elevation massing, ro<strong>of</strong><br />
lines, front entry treatments, fenestration,<br />
detailing and building materials; and<br />
where certain models are popular,<br />
additional elevation treatments shall be<br />
<strong>of</strong>fered and sited to maintain streetscape<br />
variety.<br />
purposeful variations in setbacks should<br />
be applied to both sides <strong>of</strong> the street,<br />
simultaneously, where circumstances<br />
permit;<br />
variations in setbacks shall have regard for<br />
creating a continuous vis ual featu re along<br />
the street (rather than unrelated setback<br />
variations);<br />
increases in setback will be sought for<br />
dwellings on the outside <strong>of</strong> street elbows<br />
and curves unless constrained by lot depth;<br />
a minimum front yard setback <strong>of</strong> 5.0 metres<br />
is appropriate provided a minimum 6.0<br />
metre setback is provided between the<br />
face <strong>of</strong> the garage and the streetline; and<br />
front yard setbacks should be within a<br />
consistent range and be complementary to<br />
the immediate neighbours. In this regard,<br />
the houses located on Dovedale Avenue<br />
and Lowndes Avenue shall be setback so<br />
that there is a gradual transition in front<br />
yard set backs between adjacent lots.<br />

compatibility in height and massing<br />
between adjacent dwellings and dwellings<br />
on the opposite side <strong>of</strong> the street is to be<br />
provided;<br />
where bungalows or 1 1/2 storey dwellings<br />
are sited beside two storey dwellings, they<br />
shall:<br />
- comprise groupings <strong>of</strong> at least 2<br />
adjacent units;<br />
- employ raised front facades, steeper<br />
ro<strong>of</strong> pitches and increase ro<strong>of</strong><br />
massing (side gables, dormers) to<br />
provide an acceptable transition<br />
between these house types;<br />
2 storey dwellings sited among bungalows<br />
shall comprise groupings <strong>of</strong> at least 2<br />
adjacent units.<br />
EXTERIOR COLOURS AND<br />
MATERIALS<br />
The total streetscape shall be considered and<br />
co-ordinated when determining the colour<br />
and material scheme for individual lots. The<br />
selection <strong>of</strong> materials and colours shall<br />
be compatible with the architectural styles<br />
selected. A variety <strong>of</strong> colour packages shall<br />
be <strong>of</strong>fered to avoid monotony.<br />
identical colour packages shall be<br />
separated by a minimum <strong>of</strong> 3 dwellings/<br />
lots and shall not be sited on lots directly<br />
opposite from each other;<br />
compatible material colours are required<br />
within each colour package;<br />
garage door colours should harmonize with<br />
the main cladding colour and should not be<br />
dominant;<br />
ro<strong>of</strong> colour should complement the colour<br />
<strong>of</strong> wall cladding colour; and<br />
compatible colour packages shall be<br />
considered when providing transitional<br />
variations between buildings within the<br />
streetscape.<br />
Brick wall cladding is proposed as the<br />
primary wall cladding material on dwellings.<br />
Brick wall cladding must:<br />
-be used on all four elevations to a<br />
minimum height <strong>of</strong> the 1st floor<br />
- include brick detail such as arched<br />
lintels and headers, decorative brick<br />
banding, soldier coursing, and<br />
decorative brick detailing<br />
-use stone/precast window sills (no<br />
brick).<br />
Brick wall cladding is encouraged to<br />
include:<br />
- the use <strong>of</strong> complementary material<br />
such as stone as an accent, plinth or<br />
full cladding for some models<br />
- contrasting materials such as stucco,<br />
wood trim, or siding which is used only<br />

In accordance with Section 51(41) <strong>of</strong> the Planning Act, the decision <strong>of</strong> Council to<br />
approve the draft Plan <strong>of</strong> Subdivision 19T-07G01 and draft Plan <strong>of</strong> Condominium<br />
19CDM-07G02 was deemed to have been given on July 15, 2008, being the day<br />
after the last day for appealing the decision <strong>of</strong> approval <strong>of</strong> the plans. Accordingly,<br />
draft plan approval was scheduled to lapse on July 15, 2011 . However, <strong>Town</strong><br />
Council has since approved two extensions to these draft plans, the first from<br />
July 15, 2011 to July 15, 2012 (Council Resolution No. C-2011-0285) and a<br />
second extension from July 15, 2012 to July 15, 2013 (Council Resolution No. C-<br />
2012-0275). A copy <strong>of</strong> the approved draft plans and current approved draft plan<br />
conditions are attached as Schedules '3' and '4' respectively.<br />
On April 2, 2013, the applicant's agent submitted a request for a further<br />
extension to the draft plan approval review period, for a one (1) year timeframe,<br />
from July 15, 2013 to July 15, 2014. The applicant has indicated that they are in<br />
the process <strong>of</strong> clearing draft plan conditions and nearing registration <strong>of</strong> the plans.<br />
Accordingly, an extension is needed in order to fulfill the conditions <strong>of</strong> draft plan<br />
approval before the approval lapses (refer to Schedule '5').<br />
4. DISCUSSION:<br />
Section 51 (33) <strong>of</strong> the Planning Act permits approval authorities to extend the<br />
duration <strong>of</strong> draft plan approval provided that the extension is given before the<br />
approval lapses.<br />
The request for extension <strong>of</strong> draft plan approval was circulated to <strong>Town</strong><br />
departments and those external agencies that imposed conditions <strong>of</strong> approval.<br />
The request for extension <strong>of</strong> draft plan approval provides them an opportunity to<br />
review their conditions and make changes if required.<br />
The following internal departments and external agencies have provided<br />
comments in response to the notice, as <strong>of</strong> the date <strong>of</strong> the writing <strong>of</strong> this report:

comments submitted on entrance feature (refer to Schedule '6')<br />
Enbridge: No objection (refer to Schedule '7')<br />
Lake Simcoe Region Conservation Authority: No objection (refer to Schedule '8')<br />
Ministry <strong>of</strong> Transportation: No objection<br />
There were no unfavorable comments received from the circulated <strong>Town</strong><br />
departments and external agencies.<br />
4.1 Proposed Changes to Conditions <strong>of</strong> Draft Plan Approval<br />
Enbridge Gas Distribution Inc. have requested minor changes to the existing<br />
draft plan conditions, by letter dated May 2, 2013 (refer to Schedule '7').<br />
The Lake Simcoe Region Conservation Authority have also requested minor<br />
changes to the existing draft plan conditions, by letter dated May 15, 2013 (refer<br />
to Schedule '8').<br />
During the review <strong>of</strong> preliminary design concepts for the community entrance<br />
feature sign, staff began to have second thoughts about the suitability <strong>of</strong> this site<br />
to host such a sign. In this regard, the sign's location, being beyond the road<br />
allowances and at the far north/easterly edge <strong>of</strong> the sight triangle at the High<br />
Street/Burke Street intersection, is a considerable distance from the sight lines <strong>of</strong><br />
the travelled portion <strong>of</strong> High Street. In staff's opinion, this specific location<br />
coupled with the existing curve in the alignment <strong>of</strong> High Street, would result in a<br />
sign that would not be as noticeable or prominent as it should be to motorists<br />
travelling along High Street. The <strong>Town</strong>'s Economic Development Officer, Karyn<br />
Stone, concurs with the above, and believes that there are more appropriate<br />
locations for a Sutton Community entrance sign to consider, such as at the
89<br />
- Page 5 <strong>of</strong> Report No. PB-2013-0055 -<br />
intersections <strong>of</strong> High Street and Highway 48. She further notes that this matter<br />
will be examined more comprehensively through the Signage Strategy that is<br />
currently underway.<br />
Staff also advises that both the Downtown Sutton Merchant Association and The<br />
<strong>Georgina</strong> Heritage Committee have been consulted and are in support <strong>of</strong> the<br />
most recent design <strong>of</strong> the entrance feature, which is shown in Schedule '9'. It<br />
should be noted however, that the Heritage Committee has requested that the<br />
name on the sign feature include a reference to 'Historic Sutton', staff believe this<br />
is a good suggestion, and recommend that the entrance feature sign wording be<br />
amended to read as follows (or something similar):<br />
"Highfield Landing in Historic Sutton"<br />
In view <strong>of</strong> the above, staff is recommending that a revision be made to draft<br />
Conditions Nos. 1, 15, 27 and 28 to no longer require Council's approval <strong>of</strong> a<br />
Community Entrance Feature/Sign and that such conditions be changed to<br />
reflect the requirement <strong>of</strong> a project specific entrance feature being located on the<br />
Subject Land (i.e. not on a separate block to be dedicated to the <strong>Town</strong>) and that<br />
such sign feature shall include reference to 'Historic Sutton'.<br />
Comments received from the Downtown Sutton Merchant Association are<br />
attached hereto as Schedule '1 0'<br />
4.2 Proposed Changes to Draft Plans<br />
On December 6, 201 0, the Committee <strong>of</strong> Adjustment approved Consent<br />
applications in order to sever the two (2) residential lots, referenced as Lots 1<br />
and 2 on the draft plans. Concurrently, the Committee approved a Consent<br />
application for an easement for sanitary service <strong>of</strong> the two residential lots. It was<br />
noted in the staff report (PB-201 0-0117) that the servicing easement would be<br />
incorporated into a redlined revision <strong>of</strong> the draft plans. Subsequently, a fourth<br />
consent application for an easement for storm water management was needed<br />
over the easterly residential lot (referenced as Lot 1 on the draft plans), in favour<br />
<strong>of</strong> the Subject Land and was approved on March 7, 2011 . The conditions <strong>of</strong><br />
consent approval for each <strong>of</strong> the above noted consents have been fulfilled , and<br />
therefore, subject to the registration <strong>of</strong> the deed and plan, the residential lots<br />
have been legally created and thus separated from the plan <strong>of</strong><br />
subdivision/condominium.<br />
In this regard , with the above noted consents finalized in relation to the<br />
severance <strong>of</strong> the residential lots from the lands affected by the draft plans, staff<br />
recommend that the draft plans be amended accordingly. A copy <strong>of</strong> the draft M<br />
plan, now excluding the residential lots, and incorporating a servicing easement,<br />
is attached hereto as Schedule '11 '.
90<br />
-Page 6 <strong>of</strong> Report No. PB-2013-0055-<br />
Consequently, staff is also recommending that draft Conditions Nos. 31 to 38, as<br />
they relate to the heritage building located on Lot 2, be deleted. In this regard ,<br />
staff note that comparable conditions are contained in a Consent Agreement now<br />
registered against Lots 1 and 2.<br />
If granted an extension, the applicant will be required to finalize all outstanding<br />
conditions and obtain final approval for final plan registration by July 15, 2014, or<br />
again seek Council's approval for a further extension to the draft plan approval.<br />
5. CONCLUSIONS:<br />
Staff are <strong>of</strong> the opinion that the applicant has made reasonable progress towards<br />
fulfilling the conditions <strong>of</strong> draft plan approval and is moving toward final<br />
registration <strong>of</strong> the proposed plans <strong>of</strong> subdivision and condominium. In<br />
consideration <strong>of</strong> the above, staff supports the applicant's request for extension <strong>of</strong><br />
draft plan approval for an additional one (1) year timeframe, to lapse on July 15,<br />
2014.<br />
In addition, staff recommend that the existing draft plan conditions be revised as<br />
noted in Section 4. above. A copy <strong>of</strong> the revised draft plan conditions, which<br />
incorporate the proposed changes, and a copy <strong>of</strong> the revised draft plans are<br />
attached hereto as Schedules '12' and '13'.<br />

<strong>Town</strong> <strong>of</strong><strong>Georgina</strong>, Region <strong>of</strong>York<br />
On June 24th, 2008, the <strong>Town</strong> granted draft plan approval for the above noted development (plan<br />
<strong>of</strong> subdivision and plan <strong>of</strong> condominium). A note at the bottom <strong>of</strong> the draft plan conditions states<br />
the following:<br />
PURSUANT TO THE PLANNING ACT, R.S.O., 1990, AS AMENDED, APPROVAL OF TH1S<br />
PLAN OF SUBDIVISION AND PLAN OF CONDOMINIUM SHALL LAPSE IF FINAL<br />
APPROVAL FOR REGISTRATION HAS NOT BEEN GIVEN WITHIN THREE YEARS<br />
AFTER THE DATE UPON WHICH APPROVAL TO THE PLAN OF SUBDIVISION AND<br />
THE PLAN OF CONDOMINIUM WAS GIVEN, UNLESS APPROVAL HAS BEEN SOONER<br />
WITHDRAWN OR THE TOWN OF GEORGINA HAS EXTENDED THE DURATION OF<br />
THE APPROVAL.<br />
Subsequent extensions to both the draft plan <strong>of</strong> subdivision and draft plan <strong>of</strong> condominium were<br />
granted on June 13 th, 2011 (CW-2011-0310) and June 25th, 2012 (C-2012-0275). The extension<br />
granted on June 25t\ 2012, extends the approvals to July 15th, 2013.<br />
The development is comprised <strong>of</strong> 16 freehold townhouse units and a common element<br />
condominium for the private road and amenity space (See enclosed plan).<br />
Our client has submitted, what it believes, will be the final submission to the <strong>Town</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Georgina</strong>.<br />
The submission included engineering drawings, landscape plans and a composite utility plan. It<br />
is anticipated that the <strong>Town</strong> Engineering Department will be preparing a revised development<br />
agreement based on the last submission to the <strong>Town</strong>. Our client is anxiously awaiting the revised<br />
agreement so that it can be executed.<br />

It should also be noted that Zoning By-law 500-2011-0004 was approved by Council on March<br />
28 1 h, 2011. This by-law puts in place the site-specific provisions required to facilitate the<br />
construction <strong>of</strong> the proposed 16 townhouses.<br />
Our client is looking at registering the draft plans as soon as possible with construction to start<br />
immediately after registration. With the expiration date <strong>of</strong> the draft plan approvals apJ'roaching<br />
quickly, we respectfully request that the <strong>Town</strong> extend the period <strong>of</strong> time from July 15 , 2013 to<br />
July 15th, 2014.<br />
Finally, we enclose the prescribed fee <strong>of</strong> $3, 125.00.<br />

SUBJECT: Request for Comment - Entrance Feature - Draft Plan <strong>of</strong> Subdivision<br />
(19T-07G01)- 33 High Street<br />
At the Downtown Sutton Merchant's Association (DSMA) Board meeting held on<br />
Thursday, May 16, 2013, the Board reviewed the request for comment on the proposed<br />
entrance feature <strong>of</strong> draft plan <strong>of</strong> subdivision 19T-07G01 as provided by staff. This<br />
review was conducted because the named property is located at the entrance to<br />
Downtown Sutton and may impact the local businesses.<br />
The Board discussed the entrance feature and concluded that it will be a nice addition<br />
to the Downtown Sutton gateway. The Board liked the design and appearance <strong>of</strong> the<br />
feature, but the Board was concerned that an entrance feature to the Village <strong>of</strong> Sutton is<br />
now needed to ensure consistency <strong>of</strong> messaging. The Board was also interested in<br />
exploring opportunities to use the feature or the land around the feature to help promote<br />
Sutton Businesses and local festivals and events.<br />
If you require further information or clarification, please do not hesitate to contact the<br />
Business Retention and Expansion Coordinator.<br />

TOWN OF GEORGINA<br />
REPORT NO. PB-2013-0056<br />
FOR THE CONSIDERATION OF<br />
THE COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE<br />
JUNE 17, 2013<br />
SUBJECT:<br />
APPLICATION FOR DEEMING BY-LAW APPROVAL<br />
ANATOL Y & IRINA BER<br />
LOTS 22 & 23, PLAN 205<br />
848 CRESCENT BEACH ROAD, CRESCENT BEACH<br />
1. RECOMMENDATIONS:<br />
A. THAT REPORT PB-2013-0056 PREPARED BY THE PLANNING DIVISION<br />
DATED JUNE 17, 2013 RESPECTING AN APPLICATION FOR DEEMING BY<br />
LAW SUBMITTED BY ANATOL Y & IRINA BER, AS IT AFFECTS LOTS 22 &<br />
23, PLAN 205, BE RECEIVED.<br />
B. THAT COUNCIL APPROVE THE APPLICATION SUBMITTED BY ANATOLY &<br />
IRINA BER TO DEEM LOTS 22 & 23, PLAN 205 NOT TO BE LOTS ON A<br />
REGISTERED PLAN OF SUBDIVISION FOR THE PURPOSES OF SECTION<br />
50(3) AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 50(4) OF THE PLANNING ACT,<br />
R.S.O. 1990.<br />
2. INFORMATION:<br />
Owner:<br />
Agent:<br />
Property Description:<br />
File Number:<br />
Anatoly & Irina Ber<br />
llya Ber<br />
(refer to Schedules '1' through '4')<br />
848 Crescent Beach Road, Crescent Beach<br />
Lots 22 & 23, Plan 205<br />
Roll #: 130-611<br />
06.189<br />
3. PROPERTY DESCRIPTION:<br />
The subject property is located in Crescent Beach, south <strong>of</strong> Lake Drive East on<br />
the west side <strong>of</strong> Crescent Beach Road, and is legally described as Lots 22 & 23<br />
on Plan 205 (refer to Schedules '1' and '2'). A Plan <strong>of</strong> Survey submitted by the<br />
applicant dated 1973 illustrates. that a bungalow straddles the common lot line<br />
between Lots 22 & 23, Plan 205 (refer to Schedules '3' through '5'). In this
154<br />
- Page 2 <strong>of</strong> Report No. PB-2013-0056-<br />
regard, although the property would appear to function as one landholding, a<br />
deeming by-law has not been passed by Council and registered on title to the<br />
subject property, therefore in accordance with the provisions <strong>of</strong> the Planning Act<br />
Lots 22 & 23 are separately conveyable from one another.<br />
The property is designated Serviced Lakeshore Residential Area on Schedule<br />
'A', Land Use Plan, to the <strong>Town</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Georgina</strong> Official Plan and is zoned<br />
Residential (R) on Map 5 to Schedule 'A' <strong>of</strong> Zoning by-law No. 500; both <strong>of</strong> which<br />
permit single family dwellings and accessory uses, buildings and structures.<br />
4. DISCUSSION<br />
The purpose <strong>of</strong> the subject application is to enable the owner <strong>of</strong> the subject<br />
property to receive a building permit for a 4.27 metre X 7.32 metre (14ft. X 24ft.)<br />
prefabricated storage shed which is to be placed on Lot 23, south <strong>of</strong> the existing<br />
dwelling (refer to Schedules '5' and '6'). Pursuant to Zoning By-law No. 500, no<br />
accessory building, structure or use shall be erected or established on any lot<br />
until the main building to which it is to be accessory to has been erected.<br />
Therefore, the owner has submitted a deeming application in order to deem Lots<br />
22 & 23, Plan 205 not to be lots on a registered plan <strong>of</strong> subdivision for the<br />
purposes <strong>of</strong> Section 50(3) and in accordance with Section 50(4) <strong>of</strong> the Planning<br />
Act R.S.O. 1990. In this respect, Lots 22 & 23, Plan 205 would merge in title<br />
under common ownership creating a single landholding, and would no longer be<br />
separately conveyable.<br />
Should Council approve the subject deeming application, the resultant parcel<br />
would have a lot area <strong>of</strong> 1,702 square metres (.17 HA) and 30.48 metres (100ft.)<br />
<strong>of</strong> frontage on Crescent Beach Road .<br />
A site plan illustrating the location <strong>of</strong> the proposed shed, exterior elevations and<br />
a cross-section provided by the agent are attached as Schedules '6' and '7'. Staff<br />
have confirmed with the agent that in accordance with Zoning By-law No. 500,<br />
the location <strong>of</strong> the proposed shed is to be within the southern interior side yard<br />
and will not encroach into the front yard. In consideration <strong>of</strong> the foregoing and<br />
upon review <strong>of</strong> the submitted plans, Staff advise that the proposed shed and<br />
location <strong>of</strong> same, pursuant to approval <strong>of</strong> this application, would comply with the<br />
provisions <strong>of</strong> Zoning By-law No. 500.<br />
The agent has submitted a copy <strong>of</strong> the transfer deed indicating that the entire<br />
landholding is held in common ownership, thereby permitting the by-law to be<br />
registered on title. Once the Deeming By-law is registered on title, the subject<br />
lots can no longer be conveyed separately from each other.<br />
5. CONCLUSION:<br />
In consideration <strong>of</strong> the above, Staff are satisfied that the subject application<br />
conforms with Zoning By-law No. 500 and the Official Plan, and represents good
155<br />
- Page 3 <strong>of</strong> Report No. PB-2013-0056-<br />
planning. In this respect, Staff have no concerns with the subject deeming<br />
application and recommend approval <strong>of</strong> same.<br />
Should Council approve the subject application, Staff will bring forward the<br />
subsequent By-law for Council's passing at the next Council meeting, being June<br />
24, 2013.<br />

FOR THE CONSIDERATION OF<br />
COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE<br />
JUNE 17, 2013<br />
SUBJECT:<br />
REDUCTION IN SPEED LIMIT<br />
OLD SHILOH ROAD<br />
RECOMMENDATION:<br />
1. THAT REPORT NO. OED-2013-0032 DATED JUNE 17, 2013 WITH<br />
RESPECT TO THE REDUCTION IN SPEED LIMIT ON OLD SHILOH<br />
ROAD BE RECEIVED FOR INFORMATION.<br />
2. THAT A BY-LAW BE PASSED TO AMEND THE TRAFFIC BY-LAW TO<br />
ESTABLISH A 60 KILOMETRE PER HOUR SPEED ZONE ON OLD<br />
SHILOH ROAD FROM VICTORIA STREET WEST TO BRIDGE NO. 4.<br />
BACKGROUND:<br />
In 2012, staff were contacted by a new resident with concerns about walking on the<br />
road. The resident asked for a speed reduction from 70km/hr to 40km/hr. Further, the<br />
resident compared Old Shiloh Road to Warden Avenue, Woodbine Avenue and Old<br />
Homestead Road and spoke <strong>of</strong> speed reductions on those streets.<br />
REPORT:<br />
There are 17 properties located on this section <strong>of</strong> Old Shiloh Road. The <strong>Town</strong> has<br />
reduced speed limits <strong>of</strong> a similar nature in front <strong>of</strong> properties on Catering Road (north <strong>of</strong><br />
Baldwin Road) and on Cryderman's Side Road (south <strong>of</strong> Baldwin Road) to 60km/hr.
168<br />
2<br />
It is recommended that a by-law be passed to amend the Traffic By-law to change the<br />
speed limit from 70km/hr to 60km/hr at this location on Old Shiloh Road. As a result we<br />
are anticipating a reduction in speed, reduced complaints and a safer neighbourhood.<br />

BACKGROUND<br />
The minutes <strong>of</strong> the Committee <strong>of</strong> the Whole Meeting <strong>of</strong> May 21 , 2013, indicate that<br />
Councillor Smockum, seconded by Councillor Szollosy, put forth the following resolution:<br />
"RESOLUTION NO. CW-2013-0116<br />
That report No. DES-2013-0003 entitled 'Regional Fire Consolidation' be received and<br />
referred to staff to report back to Council to identify the costs associated with part time<br />
volunteer firefighters and the total costs."<br />
DISCUSSION<br />
Staff understanding <strong>of</strong> the discussions that took place on Report No. DES 2013-0003 on<br />
May 21 , 2013 differs from the direction captured in Resolution No. CW-2013-0116.<br />
Staff's interpretation <strong>of</strong> the discussions was that Council had referred the report back to<br />
include an avenue for the review <strong>of</strong> fire response to EMS calls.
172<br />
-Page 2 <strong>of</strong> Report No. DES-2013-0005<br />
CONCLUSION<br />
Staff respectfully request that Council clarify that the focus <strong>of</strong> the staff report back was to<br />
be the inclusion, in the proposed review, <strong>of</strong> fire response to EMS calls.<br />

4. Pension agreement<br />
OMERS provides pension services to more than 428,947 active and reUred members and<br />
approximately 968 employers. Each year an independent actuary determines the funding status <strong>of</strong><br />
OMERS Primary Pension Plan (the Plan) by comparing the actuarial value <strong>of</strong> invested assets to the<br />
estimated present value <strong>of</strong> all pension benefits that members have earned to date. The most recent<br />
actuarial valuation <strong>of</strong> the Plan was conducted at December 31, 2012. The results <strong>of</strong> this valuation<br />
disclosed total actuarial liablilties <strong>of</strong> $69,122 million In respect <strong>of</strong> benefits accrued for serv~lth<br />
actuarial assets at that dale <strong>of</strong> $59,198 million indicating an actuarial deficit <strong>of</strong> $9,92 if n.<br />
Because OMERS is a multi-employer plan, any pension plan surpluses or deficit~ oint<br />
responsibility <strong>of</strong> Ontario municipal organizations and their employees. As a result,th does<br />
not recognize any share <strong>of</strong> the OMERS pension surplus or deficit. A.<br />
Contribution rates range from 8.3% to 12.8% depending on the level <strong>of</strong> earn~~ng the year<br />
$65,659 (2011 - $61,398) was contributed to OMERS by the Library B f ~V't services.<br />

Independent Auditor's Report<br />
To the Members <strong>of</strong> Brfar Htll Cemetery<br />
We have audited the accompanying consolidated ftnandal statements <strong>of</strong> Brfar Htll Cemetery, which<br />
comprise the consolidated statement <strong>of</strong> financial position as at December 31, 2012, and the consolidated<br />
statement <strong>of</strong> operations and accumulated surplus, and consolidated statement <strong>of</strong> cash flows for the year<br />
then ended, and a summary <strong>of</strong> significant accounting policies and other explanatory lnfonnatlon.<br />
Management's Responslblltty for the Flnanctal Statements<br />
Management Is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation <strong>of</strong> these consolidated financial<br />
statements In accordance with Canadian public sector accounting standards, and for such Internal control<br />
as management detennlnes Is necessary to enable the preparation <strong>of</strong> the consolidated financial statements<br />
that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.<br />
Auditor's Responsfbutty<br />
Our responsibility Is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit.<br />
We conducted our audit In accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards. Those<br />
standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain<br />
reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material<br />
misstatement.<br />
An audit Involves perfonnlng procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures In the<br />
consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgment, Including<br />
the assessment <strong>of</strong> the risks <strong>of</strong> material misstatement <strong>of</strong> the consolidated financial statements, whether due<br />
to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers Internal control relevant to the<br />
entity's preparation and fair presentation <strong>of</strong> the consolidated financial statements In order to design audit<br />
procedures that are appropriate In the circumstances, but not for the purpose <strong>of</strong> expressing an opinion on<br />
the effectiveness <strong>of</strong> the entity's Internal control. An audit also Includes evaluating the appropriateness <strong>of</strong><br />
accounting policies used and the reasonableness <strong>of</strong> accounting estimates made by management, as well as<br />
evaluating the overall presentation <strong>of</strong> the consolidated financial statements.<br />
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained Is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our<br />
audit opinion.<br />
Opinion<br />
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, In all material respects, the financial<br />
position <strong>of</strong> Briar Hill Cemetery as at December 31, 2012 and the results <strong>of</strong> Its operations and Its cash flows<br />
for the year then ended In accordance with Canadian public sector accounting standards.<br />
Other Matters<br />
The financial statements <strong>of</strong> Briar Htll Cemetery for the year ended December 31 , 2011 were audited by<br />
another auditor who expressed an unmodified opinion on June 25, 2012.<br />

The year over year change in the accumulated surplus/( deficit) <strong>of</strong> $1,774,063<br />
reflects the consolidated annual deficit, as indicated in the Consolidated<br />
Statement <strong>of</strong> Operations and Accumulated Surplus. This decrease is<br />
comprised <strong>of</strong> several amounts as summarized in Table 2 below.<br />
It is important to note that the deficit <strong>of</strong> $1,774,063 occurs since the <strong>Town</strong>'s<br />
annual investment in its reserve funds and tangible capital assets was less than<br />
the annual amortization (depreciation) <strong>of</strong> its tangible capital assets.

As noted in Table 2 above, the 2012 operating surplus is $184,663. The<br />
<strong>Town</strong>'s approved 2013 Budget includes provisions for the prior year (201 2)<br />
annual operating surplus in the amount <strong>of</strong> $200 thousand and the amount <strong>of</strong><br />
$184,663 will be carried forward to 2013 from the prior year.<br />
The 2012 Capital Fund Balance reflects a deficit <strong>of</strong> $2,678,508. This deficit<br />
reflects those capital projects that are not yet completed and will be funded from<br />
development charges and Federal/Provincial grants, as well as specific capital<br />
projects that have been completed and are to be funded by future tax levy<br />
revenues (internal borrowings) as provided for in the approved 2013 Budget.<br />
Budget Variances<br />
The Consolidated Statement <strong>of</strong> Operations and Accumulated Surplus contains<br />
the actual revenues and expenditures for the fiscal year and the budgeted<br />
amounts which are not audited.<br />
It is important to note that the "budgeted" amounts are stated in accordance<br />
with PSAB and do not include inter-fund transfers, such as contributions to and<br />
draws from reserves. Note 3 to the Financial Statements provides a<br />
reconciliation <strong>of</strong> the <strong>Town</strong>'s approved 2012 Budget to the Budget as stated in<br />
the Consolidated Statement <strong>of</strong> Operations and Accumulated Surplus.
223<br />
- Page 4 <strong>of</strong> Report No. DAS-2013-0024 -<br />
Budget variances evident on the Consolidated Statement <strong>of</strong> Operations and<br />
Accumulated Surplus are primarily due to capital investments that have been<br />
expensed, since they are not "tangible" capital assets, such as studies and<br />
minor capital items. Many <strong>of</strong> these amounts will be <strong>of</strong>fset by equivalent<br />
revenues or transfers from reserve funds.<br />
Tangible Capital Assets<br />
As reported on the Consolidated Statement <strong>of</strong> Operations and Accumulated<br />
Surplus, in 2012 the <strong>Town</strong> expensed a "net loss on disposal <strong>of</strong> tangible capital<br />
assets" in the amount <strong>of</strong> $855,383. This loss reflects the residual <strong>of</strong> the<br />
sale/disposal proceeds <strong>of</strong> the asset less the net book value <strong>of</strong> the asset.<br />
Table 3 below provides a breakdown <strong>of</strong> those transactions comprised within the<br />
net loss.<br />

Schedule 1 <strong>of</strong> the <strong>Town</strong>'s Audited 2012 Consolidated Financial Statements<br />
includes a Summary <strong>of</strong> Tangible Capital Assets by Asset Category.<br />
At the end <strong>of</strong> the 2012 fiscal year, the historical cost <strong>of</strong> the <strong>Town</strong>'s tangible<br />
capital assets is $462.1 million. Of this cost, $108.7 million is the portion <strong>of</strong> the<br />
cost that represents the service life <strong>of</strong> the tangible capital assets that has<br />
already been consumed and amortized as an expense. In 2012, the <strong>Town</strong>'s<br />
annual amortization expense was $10.2 million. The remainder <strong>of</strong><br />
$354.3 million (Net Book Value) is to be amortized in future years and it is this<br />
amount that is shown on the Consolidated Statement <strong>of</strong> Financial Position.<br />
As noted on Schedule 1 <strong>of</strong> the Consolidated Financial Statements, Summary <strong>of</strong><br />
Tangible Capital Assets by Asset Category, the <strong>Town</strong> had capital work-inprocess<br />
totalling $21 ,555 at the end <strong>of</strong> the 2012 fiscal year. This amount
224<br />
- Page 5 <strong>of</strong> Report No. DAS-2013-0024 -<br />
reflects the capital project for the rehabilitation <strong>of</strong> six bridges that was still in the<br />
pre-construction stage.<br />
Cash Flow and Liquidity<br />
The <strong>Town</strong>'s cash and temporary investments <strong>of</strong> $24.8 million reflect a increase<br />
<strong>of</strong> approximately $5.0 million during the 2012 fiscal year, as detailed in the<br />
Consolidated Statements <strong>of</strong> Cash Flows. That portion <strong>of</strong> the <strong>Town</strong>'s total cash<br />
and temporary investments that is restricted with respect to their use is<br />
$412.8 thousand as described in Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial<br />
Statements. This amount reflects cash amounts that must be spent in<br />
accordance with Planning Act and Development Charges Act provisions, as<br />
well as the Federal Gas Tax Agreement.<br />
Taxes receivable at December 31 , 2012 was 8% <strong>of</strong> the total annual taxes billed,<br />
considerably lower than 2011 at 9.7%. This decrease is primarily attributable to<br />
active collection efforts and may be partly attributable to the slow recovery <strong>of</strong> a<br />
weak economic climate. The <strong>Town</strong>'s Treasury staff continue to monitor the<br />
level <strong>of</strong> taxes receivable and provide personal assistance to taxpayers through<br />
individual payments plans. The reduction in taxes receivable balances<br />
improves the <strong>Town</strong>'s cash flow position.<br />
Long Term Debt Position<br />
Note 13 <strong>of</strong> the Consolidated Financial Statements includes a summary <strong>of</strong> the<br />
<strong>Town</strong>'s long term debt. At the end <strong>of</strong> the 2012 fiscal year following principal<br />
payments <strong>of</strong> $1 .3 million, the <strong>Town</strong> held long term debt obligations totalling<br />
$12.7 million for the W illow Beach servicing project that will be recovered from<br />
water/wastewater local improvement levies against benefitting properties.<br />
In 2012, the <strong>Town</strong> made the final principal and interest payments in full<br />
satisfaction' <strong>of</strong> long term debt related to the Ice Palace Redevelopment.<br />
Also in 2012, the <strong>Town</strong> purchased a parcel <strong>of</strong> land on Lake Drive and fully<br />
funded the acquisition through discretionary and obligatory reserves. The <strong>Town</strong><br />
also entered into a mortgage agreement with the vendor. The balance <strong>of</strong><br />
mortgage payable in the amount <strong>of</strong> $1,450,000 is included in the total long term<br />
debt reported on the Consolidated Statement <strong>of</strong> Financial Position.<br />
CONCLUSION:<br />
This report presents the <strong>Town</strong>'s Audited 2012 Consolidated Financial<br />
Statements for adoption and provides information to Council regarding the<br />
<strong>Town</strong>'s financial activities and its financial position for the 2012 fiscal year. The

such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation <strong>of</strong><br />
consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to<br />
fraud or error.<br />

our audit. We conducted our audit tn accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing<br />
standards. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and<br />
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial<br />

disclosures In the consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the<br />
auditor's judgment, Including the assessment <strong>of</strong> the risks <strong>of</strong> material misstatement <strong>of</strong> the<br />
consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk<br />
assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity's preparation and fair<br />
presentation <strong>of</strong> the consolidated financial statements fn order to design audit procedures that<br />
are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose <strong>of</strong> expressing an opinion on the<br />
effectiveness <strong>of</strong> the entity's internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the<br />
appropriateness <strong>of</strong> accounting policies used and the reasonableness <strong>of</strong> accounting estimates<br />
made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation <strong>of</strong> the consolidated<br />
financial statements.<br />
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a<br />
basis for our audit opinion.<br />
Opinion<br />

ffnancfal position <strong>of</strong> The Corporation <strong>of</strong> the <strong>Town</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Georgina</strong> as at December 31, 2012 and the<br />

We were not engaged to audit, review or apply any procedures to the 2011 consolidated financial<br />
statements other than with respect to the adjustments and, accordingly, we do not express an<br />
opinion or any other form <strong>of</strong> assurance on the 2011 consolidated ffnandat stat ements taken as a<br />

1. Summary <strong>of</strong> significant accounting policies (continued)<br />
Accrual accounting<br />
Revenues are recorded on the accrual basts <strong>of</strong> accounting, whereby revenues are recognized as they are<br />
earned and measurable. Expenses are recognized in the period goods and services are acquired and a<br />
liability is Incurred or transfers are due.<br />
Non-financial assets<br />
Non-financial assets are not available to discharge existing liabilities and are held for use in the provision <strong>of</strong><br />
services. They have useful lives extending beyond the current year, and are not intended for sale in the<br />
ordinary course <strong>of</strong> operations.<br />
Tangible capital assets<br />
Tangible capital assets are recorded at cost, which Includes all amounts that are directly attributable to<br />
acquisition, construction, development or betterment <strong>of</strong> an asset. The cost, less residual value, Is<br />
amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives as follows:<br />
Land Improvements<br />
Buildings and building components<br />
Transportation network (includes roads, sidewalks, bridges<br />
and structures, street lights, etc.)<br />
Vehicles<br />
Machinery and equipment<br />
Information technology<br />
Library collection<br />
Pumping stations<br />
Sanitary sewer<br />

Assets are amortized in the year <strong>of</strong> purchase or in-service date. Annual amortization is charged in the<br />
year <strong>of</strong> acquisition for pooled assets. Assets under construction are not amortized until the asset is<br />
available for productive use, at which time they are capitalized.<br />
The <strong>Town</strong> has a capitalization threshold <strong>of</strong> $20,000 for all assets In the general category and $50,000<br />
for all assets In the infrastructure category (except land improvements which have a threshold <strong>of</strong><br />
$20,000). Individual assets <strong>of</strong> lesser value are expensed, unless they are pooled because, collectively,<br />
they have slgnlflcant value. Examples <strong>of</strong> pools are computer systems, library collection, and<br />
streetlights. The <strong>Town</strong>'s threshold for pooled assets Is $20,000. The Library pools all <strong>of</strong> their assets<br />
and their capitalization threshold is $10,000.<br />

Contribution <strong>of</strong> tangible cao!tal assets<br />
Tangible capital assets received as contributions are recorded al their fair value at the date <strong>of</strong> receipt,<br />
and that fair value is also recorded as revenue.<br />
Interest capitalization<br />
Interest Is capitalized during the period <strong>of</strong> construction whenever external debt is issued to finance the<br />
constructlon <strong>of</strong> tangible capital assets.<br />
Leases<br />
Leases are classified as capital or operatlng leases. Leases which transfer substantially all <strong>of</strong> the<br />
beneflts and risks incidental to ownership <strong>of</strong> property are accounted for as capital leases. All other<br />
leases are accounted for as operating leases and the related lease payments are charged to expenses<br />
as Incurred.<br />
Employee future benefits payable<br />
Vacation entitlements are accrued for as entitlements are earned.<br />
The <strong>Town</strong> accrues for its obligations under other ruture employee programs and the related costs. The<br />
<strong>Town</strong> has adopted the following accounting policies:<br />
- The cost <strong>of</strong> the benefits earned by employees Is actuarially determined using the projected benefit<br />
method prorated on service and management's best estimate <strong>of</strong> retirement ages <strong>of</strong> employees and<br />
expected health care and dental costs.<br />
- The present value <strong>of</strong> the cost <strong>of</strong> providing employees with other Mure benefit programs Is expensed<br />
when employees earn these entitlements through service.<br />
- Net actuarial gains and losses related to the employee benefits are amortized over the estimated<br />
average remaining useful life <strong>of</strong> the employees.<br />
Pension Plan<br />
The Municipality Is an employer member <strong>of</strong> the Ontario Municipal Employees Retirement System (OMERS),<br />
which is a multi-employer, defined benefit pension plan. The Board <strong>of</strong> Trustees, representing plan<br />
members and employers, Is responsible for overseeing the management <strong>of</strong> the pension plan, Including<br />
investment <strong>of</strong> assets and administration <strong>of</strong> the benefits. The Municipality has adopted defined contribution<br />
plan accounting principles for this Plan because insufficient information is available to apply defined benefit<br />
plan accounting principles. The Municipality records as pension expense the current service cost,<br />
amortization <strong>of</strong> past service costs and interest costs related to the future employer contributions to the Plan<br />
for past employee service.<br />

Deferred revenue - obligatory reserve funds<br />
Deferred revenues represent user charges and fees which have been collected but for which the related<br />
services have yet to be performed. These amounts will be recognized as revenues in the fiscal year the<br />
services are performed. The <strong>Town</strong> receives development charges and cash-in-tieu <strong>of</strong> parkland under the<br />
authority <strong>of</strong> provincial legislation and <strong>Town</strong> by-taws. These funds, by their nature, are restricted In their use<br />
and, until applied to specific capital works, are recorded as deferred revenue. Amounts applied to<br />
qualifying capital projects are recorded as revenue in the fiscal period they are expended.<br />
Reserves and reserve funds<br />
Certain amounts, as approved by the <strong>Town</strong> Council, are set aside in reserves and reserve funds for future<br />
operaUng and capital purposes. Transfer to/from reserves and reserve funds are an adjustment to the<br />
respective fund when approved.<br />
Revenue recognition<br />
Taxes are recognized as revenue in the year they are levied.<br />
Charges for sewer and water usage are recorded as user fees. Connection fee revenues are recognized<br />
when the connection has been established.<br />
Sales <strong>of</strong> service and other revenue is recognized on an accrual basis.<br />
Investment Income<br />
Investment income eamed is reilorted as revenue In the period eamed. Investment Income eamed on<br />
development charges (obligatory reserve funds) is added to the fund balance and forms part <strong>of</strong> the deferred<br />
revenue balance.<br />
Government transfers<br />
Government transfers include entitlements, transfers under shared cost agreements, and grants. Revenue<br />
is recognized for unconditional entitlements and grants In the period received or receivable. Revenue is<br />
recognized for conditional entitlements and grants In the period the associated expense Is incurred.<br />
Revenue Is recognized for transfers under shared cost agreements in the period the costs are incurred.<br />
Use <strong>of</strong> estimates<br />
The preparation <strong>of</strong> financial statements in conformity with Canadian public sector accounting standards<br />
requires management to make esUmates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts <strong>of</strong> assets and<br />
liabilities and disclosure <strong>of</strong> contingent assets and liabilities at the date <strong>of</strong> the financial statements, and the<br />
reported amounts <strong>of</strong> revenues and expenses during the reporUng period. The principle estimates used In<br />
the preparation <strong>of</strong> these financial statements include the useful life and valuation <strong>of</strong> tangible capital assets.<br />
Actual results could differ from these estimates.<br />

17. Pension agreements<br />
OMERS provides pension services to more than 428,947 active and retired members and approximately<br />
968 employers. Each year an Independent actuary determines the funding status <strong>of</strong> OMERS Primary<br />
Pension Plan (the Plan) by comparing the actuarial value <strong>of</strong> Invested assets to the estimated present<br />
value <strong>of</strong> all pension benefits that members have earned to date. The most recent actuarial valuation <strong>of</strong><br />
the Plan was conducted at December 31, 2012. The results <strong>of</strong> this valuation disclosed total actuarial<br />
liabilities <strong>of</strong> $69,122 million In respect <strong>of</strong> benefits accrued for service wlth actuarial assets at that date<br />
<strong>of</strong> $59,198 million indicating an actuarial deficit <strong>of</strong> $9,924 mtltfon. Because OMERS is a multf·employer<br />
plan, any pension plan surpluses or deficits are a joint responslbfllty <strong>of</strong> Ontario municipal organizations<br />
and their employees. As a result, the <strong>Town</strong> does not recognize any share <strong>of</strong> the OMERS pension surplus or<br />
deficit.<br />
Contributions In 2012 ranged from 8.3% to 13.9% {2011 - 7.4% to 14.1%) depending on the proposed<br />
retirement age and level <strong>of</strong> earnings. As a result $1,378,064 (2011 - $1,205,372) was contributed to<br />
OMERS for current year services.<br />

THE CORPORATION OF THE TOWN OF GEORGINA<br />
REPORT NO. DAS-2013-0025<br />
FOR CONSIDERATION OF<br />
COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE<br />
ON JUNE 17TH' 2013<br />
SUBJECT:<br />
PROPOSED COUNCIL/COMMITTEE STRUCTURE AND<br />
PROCEDURAL BY-LAW UPDATE<br />
RECOMMENDATION:<br />
1. THAT REPORT NO. DAS-2013-0025 DATED JUNE 17, 2013 ENTITLED<br />
PROPOSED COUNCIL/COMMITTEE STRUCTURE AND PROCEDURAL BY<br />
LAW UPDATE BE RECEIVED BY COUNCIL;<br />
2. THAT COUNCIL AUTHORIZE STAFF TO PROCEED TOWARDS<br />
IMPLEMENTATION OF A HYBRID COUNCIL/COMMITTEE MEETING<br />
STRUCTURE WITH AN IMPLEMENTATION TARGET OF FALL 2013;<br />
3. THAT COUNCIL AUTHORIZE STAFF TO PREPARE AND PRESENT FOR<br />
CONSIDERATION, AN UPDATED PROCEDURAL BY-LAW;<br />
4. THAT COUNCIL AUTHORIZE STAFF TO NOTIFY THE PUBLIC OF INTENT TO<br />
IMPLEMENT CHANGES TO THE COUNCIL/COMMITTEE STRUCTURE,<br />
RECEIVE PUBLIC COMMENTS AND REPORT SAME FOR COUNCIL<br />
CONSIDERATION BEFORE IMPLEMENTATION.<br />
PURPOSE:<br />
This report speaks to procedural reform proposed to improve the political and administrative<br />
processes. As stated in a similar report received by the council <strong>of</strong> the <strong>Town</strong> <strong>of</strong> Whitchurch<br />
Stouffville, "Procedural by-laws are fluid documents which evolve over time. They are amended<br />
in order to achieve efficiencies, incorporate best practices and reflect changing needs." The<br />
<strong>Town</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Georgina</strong>, like the <strong>Town</strong> <strong>of</strong> Whitchurch-Stouffville, is experiencing a time <strong>of</strong> "changing<br />
needs".<br />
BACKGROUND:<br />
The Municipal Act requires municipalities to have Procedural Bylaws to govern the calling, place<br />
and proceedings <strong>of</strong> meetings. The <strong>Town</strong>'s procedural by-law was adopted in 2002, and<br />
amended in 2004, 2006 and 2007.<br />
Given the growth period for which we are preparing, it is necessary to undertake a review <strong>of</strong> all<br />
<strong>Town</strong> processes to ensure we are positioned to best deal with the growing business at hand.
255<br />
Page 2 <strong>of</strong> Report No. DAS-2013-0025-<br />
In anticipation <strong>of</strong> increased volume <strong>of</strong> reports and matters before Council over the next few<br />
years, staff have investigated the best practices <strong>of</strong> other municipalities and provide the following<br />
report for consideration.<br />
Council should be commended on the fact that the <strong>Town</strong>'s current practices already reflect<br />
several streamlining initiatives; such as,<br />
o<br />
o<br />
o<br />
o<br />
REVIEW:<br />
By-laws being read in one motion<br />
Unwritten motions which expedite the process<br />
Televised or streaming <strong>of</strong> meetings for public information<br />
Consentagenda<br />
Staff have reviewed the various Council/Committee structures available for consideration. The<br />
approaches taken vary broadly. Municipalities appear to individually consider what works<br />
effectively for their community needs and demands. Listed below are four <strong>of</strong> the most<br />
commonly used structures:<br />
1. Council with Standing Committees i.e.: Finance, Planning<br />
This is the most cumbersome and politically/administratively time consuming structure.<br />
Adopting this method would not achieve the current goals <strong>of</strong> the corporation. Staff does not<br />
recommend this structure and therefore have not provided further detail.<br />
2. Council with Committee <strong>of</strong> the Whole (COWl/General Committee<br />
With this structure it is intended that informal discussion be encouraged at COW with<br />
recommendations forwarded to Council for ratification. This system is most effective when<br />
all reports and recommendations are heard at the COW level and ratified at Council. With a<br />
high volume <strong>of</strong> approval demands this system becomes less effective in meeting the needs<br />
<strong>of</strong> the <strong>Town</strong>.<br />
3. Council meetings only<br />
This is the most streamlined approach; however, it could be assessed as being too<br />
progressive. In this format the informality <strong>of</strong> Committee discussion is eliminated and public<br />
participation could be diminished because <strong>of</strong> intimidation <strong>of</strong> only being able to delegate in a<br />
formal setting; therefore, staff does not recommend this structure at this time.<br />
4. Hybrid Approach<br />
This structure sees the collapse <strong>of</strong> Council and Committee <strong>of</strong> the Whole into one meeting,<br />
one agenda, one set <strong>of</strong> minutes.<br />
o<br />
o<br />
The Clerk <strong>of</strong> the <strong>Town</strong> <strong>of</strong> Whitchurch-Stoufville indicated that they have tried a<br />
number <strong>of</strong> procedures over the years, but this current hybrid structure (in existence<br />
since 2008) is by far the most efficient system they have had.<br />
In a recent training session attended by the <strong>Georgina</strong> Clerk, the Committee in<br />
Council structure was discussed and immediately a former staff member <strong>of</strong>
256<br />
Page 3 <strong>of</strong> Report No. DAS-2013-0025 -<br />
o<br />
Whitchurch-Stouffville indicated that she had worked within this structure in<br />
Whitchurch-Stouffville and spoke very favorably to the hybrid approach.<br />
The parliamentarian facilitating the session also indicated that municipalities are<br />
finding efficiencies in the hybrid approach.<br />
Pros <strong>of</strong> the Hvbrid approach:<br />
• The process is progressive<br />
• The agenda format is simple allowing ease <strong>of</strong> public understanding<br />
o One standard agenda format (refer to draft- Attachment #1)<br />
• The confusion <strong>of</strong> what items go to which meeting is eliminated, the agenda process is<br />
more co-ordinated<br />
• Navigating the website to find agendas keep it like it is far easier than the current<br />
system<br />
• The hybrid approach is simply a formalization <strong>of</strong> the approach the <strong>Town</strong> is already<br />
following. In a true Council/COW structure staff reports are only channeled to COW<br />
meeting; however, to deal with volume <strong>of</strong> reports and to expedite turn-around times,<br />
staff have been channeling reports directly to Council meetings<br />
• Allows for addendums to only be permitted in genuinely urgent situations<br />
• Customer service will be enhanced by eliminating ratification delay<br />
• To accommodate specific matters, reports can be scheduled to a day or night meeting;<br />
therefore, increasing transparency, accountability and accessibility<br />
• Allows Council to deal with increasing volume <strong>of</strong> business<br />
• Allows reports and ratification <strong>of</strong> decisions to be considered weekly rather than biweekly;<br />
therefore, increasing productivity <strong>of</strong> the <strong>Town</strong>'s business and approval frequency<br />
• Allows greater immediacy <strong>of</strong> decision making and disposition <strong>of</strong> matters<br />
• Currently "Council" meetings are only held at night. The Hybrid approach sees Council<br />
meetings alternating between day and night times (assuming that the existing 9:00<br />
am/7:00pm schedule is maintained) ; thereby, accommodating residents who are not 9<br />
to 5 oriented and increasing access at the public to "Council" meetings<br />
• Allows Council to continue to deliberate and speak to matters in an informal manner<br />
prior to ratification by Council<br />
• Increased productivity <strong>of</strong> meetings should allow us to move to three (3) meetings per<br />
month, which will allow for one (1) week per month for much needed staff time to do<br />
project work.
257<br />
Page 4 <strong>of</strong> Report No. DAS-2013-0025 -<br />
Perceived Cons <strong>of</strong> the Hvbrid Approach<br />
o<br />
The democratic process may be perceived to be compromised<br />
Definitions <strong>of</strong> democracy-<br />
1. government by the people, in which the supreme power is vested in the people and<br />
exercised directly by them through or by their elected agents through a free electoral<br />
system<br />
2. A state <strong>of</strong> society characterized by formal equality and privileges<br />
3. A system <strong>of</strong> government by the whole population or all the eligible members <strong>of</strong> a<br />
state, typically through elected representatives: a system <strong>of</strong> parliamentary<br />
democracy<br />
4. A system <strong>of</strong> government by the whole population or all the eligible members <strong>of</strong> a<br />
state, typically through elected representatives.<br />
The six (6) principles <strong>of</strong> democracy are still upheld under the hybrid approach:<br />
i. All members are equal-they have equal rights and responsibilities.<br />
ii.<br />
iii.<br />
iv.<br />
The organization is run with impartiality and fairness. The rules are applied<br />
equally and fairly to all and not just a few. There is no favoured group within<br />
the organization that will get preferential treatment or who considers itself<br />
above the law.<br />
Ideas come from the members and are presented to the assembly to decide<br />
upon. Everyone gets the right to present ideas, speak to these ideas, and<br />
vote on the ideas, not just a select group.<br />
The majority rules but the rights <strong>of</strong> the minority and absent members are<br />
protected.<br />
v. Everything is accomplished in the spirit <strong>of</strong> openness, not secrecy. Members<br />
have the right to know what is going on within the organization by attending<br />
meetings, inspecting the <strong>of</strong>ficial records and receiving notices and reports<br />
from committees, <strong>of</strong>ficers, and boards.<br />
vi.<br />
Leaders come from the people through an election process which is fair and<br />
not slanted so a favored group can control the organization. When a leader's<br />
term <strong>of</strong> <strong>of</strong>fice ends, he or she returns to the people. A hierarchy <strong>of</strong> power<br />
doesn't exist; it is shared equally. All members have the right to be<br />
considered for <strong>of</strong>fice.<br />
o<br />
Sober second thought - one might argue that the reflective time between introduction,<br />
recommendation and decision making on an agenda item is reduced; however, it is<br />
<strong>of</strong>fset by an earlier distribution time <strong>of</strong> the agenda, well in advance <strong>of</strong> the meetings, so<br />
that Council have increased advanced contemplation time to present their position for<br />
debate, if necessary, at the meeting.<br />
The opportunity for sober second thought may appear to be missing with the change in<br />
structure; however, the ability to defer to another meeting is always a very viable option.
258<br />
Page 5 <strong>of</strong> Report No. DAS-2013-0025 -<br />
o<br />
Loss <strong>of</strong> Tradition - as indicated earlier in this report, progress is necessary to improve<br />
the political and administrative processes and reflect changing needs. While the<br />
fundamental core <strong>of</strong> the Council/Committee structure remains, it is merely evolving to be<br />
more in line with the requests, needs and wants <strong>of</strong> the community. Therefore, staff<br />
believes that tradition is not lost and that the democratic process remains and, in fact, is<br />
enhanced through this proposal.<br />
Other Considerations:<br />
• The timing <strong>of</strong> delivery and posting <strong>of</strong> agendas<br />
o<br />
o<br />
o<br />
o<br />
Staff is proposing a five (5) calendar day delivery and posting <strong>of</strong> agendas prior to the<br />
meeting versus the 3 or 4 that has become commonplace. Administratively, in order to<br />
achieve a 5-day delivery <strong>of</strong> an agenda prior to the meeting, it will be necessary that staff<br />
reports are submitted to the CAO at least 2 weeks (14 days) prior to the meeting date.<br />
<strong>Agenda</strong> delivery greater than five days prior to the meeting would delay the processing<br />
<strong>of</strong> <strong>Town</strong> business and defeat the goals <strong>of</strong> the structure change.<br />
Earlier delivery allows longer review time for Council<br />
Allows public to review, research, and contact their representative or <strong>Town</strong> staff to<br />
submit comment - allows for best quality input from residents before Council make<br />
decisions<br />
Improved timelines increases citizen information and input<br />
• Rogers have notified that they will provide day time coverage; thus increasing public<br />
awareness due to televised coverage <strong>of</strong> all meetings<br />
• The current by-law to delegate routine powers to Staff could be expanded to include minor<br />
approvals where parameters have been defined, ultimately enhancing customer service<br />
through more expedient approvals and reducing the workload at Council meetings. Staff<br />
will bring forward a subsequent report with recommendations regarding the <strong>Town</strong>'s<br />
delegation by-law.<br />
Procedure Bviaw considerations:<br />
Should Council wish to proceed with the structure change, staff will prepare and submit a report<br />
with a revised Procedure By-law in support <strong>of</strong> the change. This report would also speak to<br />
Procedure By-law amendments requested recently by members <strong>of</strong> the public. Some procedural<br />
highlights are as follows:<br />
• Closed session would remain at the end <strong>of</strong> the meeting, so as to accommodate the public<br />
who wish to attend or view the televised open session.<br />
• Rescind versus reconsider - in Section 7.26 (b) <strong>of</strong> the existing procedural by-law<br />
"reconsider'' and "rescind" have been used interchangeably. This requires correction, as<br />
rescind is to make void; whereas, reconsider is to consider again, especially with intent to<br />
alter or modify a previous decision; not interchangeable.<br />
• Public input - It is customary for Council as elected <strong>of</strong>ficials to seek information from the<br />
public to make informed decisions; therefore, increased opportunities for public input and<br />
citizen engagement can be achieved through the following:
259<br />
Page 6 <strong>of</strong> Report No. DAS-2013-0025-<br />
o<br />
o<br />
o<br />
Early Distribution <strong>of</strong> <strong>Agenda</strong>s - which would allow for the public to contact their<br />
representative on agenda items prior to the meeting and similarly for Council to gain<br />
input from their constituents prior to discussions at the Council table<br />
Speakers to Items on the <strong>Agenda</strong> - while there is no evidence that a request to speak<br />
has ever been denied, this would formalize the ability for a member <strong>of</strong> the public to give<br />
notice <strong>of</strong> request to address Council on an agenda item. The public member would be<br />
heard at the time the matter is considered by Council, and would not be listed as a<br />
separate Deputation on the agenda. (refer to attached procedures from the <strong>Town</strong> <strong>of</strong><br />
Whitchurch-Stouffville - Attachment #2)<br />
Summary Highlights <strong>of</strong> the business conducted at the Council meeting- this information<br />
posted to the website following the Council meeting would further inform the public <strong>of</strong><br />
Council business (please note this practice has commenced)<br />
o Council Representatives - the public also has the option to contact their Council<br />
representative to voice their opinion.<br />
• Communications/feedback form - can be made available at the reception desk, posted on<br />
the website and also available, as requested, through staff. Once received by the <strong>Town</strong><br />
<strong>of</strong>fice the form would be directed to the appropriate department and/or Council for response.<br />
• Transparency and Accountability - the principles <strong>of</strong> Transparency and Accountability<br />
under The Municipal Act would be upheld with the above-noted recommendations.<br />
• Duration <strong>of</strong> deputations - <strong>of</strong> the municipalities researched the average allotted time for<br />
deputations was 5 minutes; however, Council always has the option to waive the rules <strong>of</strong><br />
procedure to permit a longer time, but should clearly state the extended time allowed when<br />
granting the time extension.<br />
• Presentations<br />
o<br />
o<br />
o<br />
The time limit for a public presentation would be ten (1 0) minutes and may be<br />
extended at Council's discretion by a majority vote <strong>of</strong> Council members present at<br />
the time <strong>of</strong> the presentation.<br />
Presentations invited by the <strong>Town</strong> or Council; such as, government or agency<br />
representatives, etc. should be given a reasonable time limit established at the<br />
discretion <strong>of</strong> Council.<br />
Consultants whose services are engaged by the <strong>Town</strong>, and staff presentations would be<br />
heard at the time the staff report is presented. The Clerk, when advised by staff, would<br />
list the consultant on the agenda index with the staff report. Absence <strong>of</strong> the consultant's<br />
name from the agenda index would not preclude them from presenting.<br />
• Adjournment time - research indicated that the average time for a meeting curfew is four<br />
(4) hours, which is within the parameters set in our current by-law with an adjournment time<br />
<strong>of</strong> 11:00 p.m. Day time meetings could be a little less restrictive to be more in line with<br />
business hours and loss <strong>of</strong> productivity due to fatigue would be <strong>of</strong> lesser concern than in an<br />
evening meeting.
260<br />
• Electronic <strong>Agenda</strong> - Staff recommends implementation <strong>of</strong> an electronic agenda in order to<br />
streamline and expedite delivery. The electronic agenda can be implemented through<br />
s<strong>of</strong>tware that permits Council and staff to write comments directly onto the document for<br />
ease <strong>of</strong> access during the meeting. The agenda can be displayed on screen for ease <strong>of</strong><br />
reference by the gallery and other viewers. Staff will bring forward a subsequent report with<br />
recommendations to Council regarding electronic agenda implementation.<br />
• Financial considerations - Time and supplies are the obvious cost savings to be realized<br />
under the hybrid approach. Less obvious is the potential for reduction in overtime when<br />
specific staff need only attend one meeting. The immeasurable financial gain would be in<br />
only dealing with a matter once and responding accordingly to the public.<br />
NEXT STEPS:<br />
Staff will notify the public <strong>of</strong> the intent to implement the structural change, receive comments,<br />
and report same for Council consideration before implementation. The implementation target for<br />
the new Council/Committee Structure and accompanying Procedure By-law being Fall 2013.<br />
CONCLUSION:<br />
As stated in the Whitchurch-Stouffville report "the proposed consolidation <strong>of</strong> the Council meeting<br />
structure (hybrid approach) will simplify the administration <strong>of</strong> meetings and make it easier for<br />
residents to understand Council's decision making process".<br />
Staff is <strong>of</strong> the opinion that the proposed system will best serve the current needs <strong>of</strong> Council, the<br />
public and staff. Should the demand for a high volume <strong>of</strong> reports diminish in the future, the<br />
Council/COW structure could be reinstated if desired by Council.<br />

3. BACKGROUND:<br />
On June 3, 2013, at the meeting <strong>of</strong> the Committee <strong>of</strong> the Whole, Council was<br />
presented a report on the level <strong>of</strong> creative input and public engagement<br />
undertaken to date with respect to the Branding Strategy. This report also<br />
presented the designs provided by the consultants and the public's feedback on<br />
these designs and taglines. In response, Council indicated that they were not<br />
satisfied with the level <strong>of</strong> public engagement and creative input received to date<br />
and further, were not satisfied with any <strong>of</strong> the consultant designs submitted to<br />
date. In summary, Council wished to see a change in the project's methodology<br />
using a more ground-up, community-oriented approach.<br />
The intent <strong>of</strong> branding <strong>Georgina</strong> is to concisely define the municipality's promises<br />
to stakeholders and to subsequently deliver upon those promises to all<br />
stakeholders. This process will establish the foundation which is needed for<br />
ensuring consistency in all messaging and assist the <strong>Town</strong> in marketing its assets<br />
to a broader audience.<br />
4. DISCUSSION:<br />
In response to Council's concerns, staff propose that design charrettes be held<br />
within the community to draw on local creative talent to develop logo concepts.<br />
Staff recommend that three separate charrettes be held to ensure that the<br />
opportunity to participate is extended to all members <strong>of</strong> the community.<br />
Focus groups will then be held to evaluate the designs created by the community<br />
and the top three consultant-generated designs with the intent to refine the number<br />
<strong>of</strong> designs to six. The top six designs as selected by the focus groups along with<br />
any comments made will then be forwarded to the consultant to prepare for<br />
Council consideration and subsequent street testing and evaluation through a web<br />

Council with the test results.<br />
5. FINANCIAL IMPACT:<br />
The financial impact resulting from the proposed methodology is expected to be<br />
minimal and will be accommodated within existing budgets.<br />
6. CONCLUSION:<br />
Staff believe that the revised project methodology will satisfy Council's desire to<br />
see increased community creative development while ensuring that the objectives<br />
<strong>of</strong> the project are met. Staff will provide updates throughout the remaining stages<br />
<strong>of</strong> the project to ensure that Council is informed <strong>of</strong> the project's progress.
