MAYOR’S MESSAGE 

On behalf of Council and staff of the City of Barrie, I am pleased to present 

the 2008 Fall issue of the Recreation & Leisure Community Guide. This guide 

is a valuable source of information filled with details on the recreational and 

leisure programs offered by the City of Barrie. You will also find information 

on other programs and services offered by the city. 

Each day at City Hall, both Council and staff continue to move forward, 

ensuring that quality programs and services are delivered to the residents 

of Barrie. City Council continues to work hard ensuring that decisions made 

will have a positive impact on our city and that residents are receiving good 

value for their tax dollars. 

I encourage you to look through these pages and find something that you 

can enjoy with your family, friends or just something for yourself. Whether 

it’s participating in a fitness program, or updating your computer skills, 

there’s certainly something for everybody. 

The fall is a beautiful time in our city as the leaves slowly change providing 

a colourful backdrop to our many parks and recreational areas. I hope you 

have the opportunity to enjoy all that our city has to offer, from great dining 

and shopping, to a casual stroll along the waterfront, there’s so much to 

appreciate here. 

Sincerely, 

Dave Aspden 

Mayor

Barrie’s Cultural Wave 

Fall 2008, Volume No. 15 

InformatIon BulletIn 

2008 has been a time of positive change at the City of Barrie. One of those changes has been the addition of Rudi Quammie 

Williams. He is the new Director of Cultural Development, heading up the newly created Department of Culture. 

The function of the Department of Culture is directly aligned with Council’s Strategic Priorities in encouraging culture as an 

economic driver. In ensuring the long term sustainability of a vibrant cultural arts sector, the department’s focus is on the 

development of local artists and producers, public and private partnerships including public consultation with the citizens of Barrie, 

the introduction of a local Arts Advisory, and the development of an arts policy. 

There are many exciting, new cultural initiatives that the public is encouraged to participate in. The Arts Advisory will work with 

the city as a liaison and advocate for the arts community by providing input to the department of Culture on strategic issues such 

as infrastructure, policy and funding. 

This summer, City Council approved a multi-purpose performing arts centre to be located in the old Scotiabank building at the five 

points intersection. The facility will seat between 120-220 people. This is a wonderful opportunity for local performance groups 

to use a facility in the downtown core while providing a picturesque backdrop with great restaurants, shopping, and a beautiful 

shoreline. 

On route to this new facility, theatre goers will notice a larger than life mural on the new parkade on Collier St. The City has 

launched a competition, open to emerging artists, to submit entries appropriate for the wall of the new Collier Street Parkade. The 

selected mural will incorporate elements of Barrie’s past, present and future. A two thousand dollar honorarium from Heritage 

Barrie will be presented to the successful artist. 

From walls to trees, you could certainly say that this department is branching out! A tree carving competition called “Barrie’s Roots, 

The Spirits of The City,” in conjunction with Communities In Bloom, will provide a unique use of tree stumps located in three Barrie 

parks. Following a selection process, successful carvers will whittle their creations for all to enjoy. 

To help celebrate and support Barrie’s vibrant arts community, the Department of Culture has presented a total of $260 thousand 

dollars to community arts groups in 2008, through a granting process. In addition to these operating grants, this year, the City 

of Barrie awarded project grants to a number of arts organizations. Project grants allow arts organizations to apply for specific 

projects that are not necessarily part of their regular operations. 

Another way in which the Department of Culture intends to celebrate Barrie’s exciting arts community is by implementing an Arts 

Awards Program. This program will be a collaborative effort between the business community and the arts and culture sector, and 

will culminate in a gala evening held each fall. For information on the awards program and the Department of Culture visit the City 

of Barrie’s website at www.barrie.ca , call 729-4299 or 739-4220 Ext. 4299.

Fort Willow, Springwater - Heritage Park, Barrie 

The City of Barrie and The Township of Springwater have partnered to present the NINE MILE 

PORTAGE HERITAGE FESTIVAL. The Nine Mile Portage, once an ancient native trail and 

a transportation route for soldiers during the War of 1812, grew into the community we know as 

Barrie. Fort Willow has been developed at its terminus in Springwater - a spot where natives and 

soldiers once set-up camp to rest along the long journey from Kempenfelt Bay to the Nottawasaga 

River and Georgian Bay. 

This event celebrates the signifi cance of the historic route in the development of our two 

communities and to the history of Canada. Festivities include a hike along the trail, as well as the 

opportunity to see period re-enactors at Heritage Park and Fort Willow. An amazing spectacle 

that will take you back in time!

Parks and Recreation 

Strategic Plan - 2008 

In 2008/09 the City of Barrie will go through the process of developing a set of underlying core 

principles and values that will be based upon the fundamental vision of the future of Recreation 

Service Delivery and Parks Planning and Management within the City of Barrie. The plan is 

intended to provide direction to the municipality for planning and policy development in the area of 

Parks and Recreation. Included will be a statement of mission, an analysis of strengths and 

weaknesses and an outline of the strategic directions designed to support and realize the vision. 

The strategy will further contain detailed action to implement each strategic direction. 

Some components of the project may include: 

Building A Healthy Community 

Customer Relationships 

Leisure Opportunities and Services to Foster a Sense of Community 

Integration and Optimization of Parks and Recreation Service Delivery 

Sustained Fiscal Responsibility 

Sustainable Leadership of our economic and natural heritage with Integrity and Diversity 

Assess Deployment of Human Resources 

Reduce Barriers to Participation in Leisure Activities and Promote a Recreation System 

that is Inclusive & Accessible. 

How Can You Get Involved 

There will be opportunities for public forums and surveys for both the general public and defi ned 

stakeholders. These will be your opportunity to express your opinions about future needs and 

preferences, as well as identify gaps in service/programs and facility development. 

Please watch for this information in upcoming brochures as well as the City Page published each 

Friday in The Barrie Examiner. There will also be notices posted through our website at:

PRESCHOOL SKATES - PROGRAM CHANGES 

As part of our ongoing program improvements, the following changes will be implemented into our 

Preschool Skating program: 

* In accordance with ORFA (Ontario Recreation Facilities Association) guidelines for skating programs 

✰ No Strollers on ice 

✰ No Shoes, boots, etc on Ice, EVERYONE on the ice MUST be wearing skates. 

✰ No pucks, sticks, etc - this can be accomodated in our NEW Shinny program. 

✰ All children must skate on their own and may not be carried while on the ice. 

✰ Approved skate aids ONLY will be allowed - no chairs etc. 

✰ For Children to Age 6 only AND Parents/Caregivers ONLY - no school age participants. 

To help facilitate these changes we will now be providing staff as On Ice supervisors. Staff will help ensure a safe 

and enjoyable experience for all participants. 

In an effort to ease the transition of these changes there will be No Fees charged for this program until January 

2009. At that time regular Public Skating fees will come into effect for child participants. Parents will not be 

charged but must be present to supervise their children. 

Childcare will be available for infants at Holly, East Bayfi eld and Allandale Recreation Centre. Please see our 

childcare information in the Fitness Section for fees. 

PUBLIC SKATING - Maximum numbers on the Ice reduced 

* In accordance with ORFA (Ontario Recreation Facilities Association) guidelines. 

As of Fall 2008 the Maximum number of participants on the ice during a Public Skating session will be capped at 

160. To be able to offer access to as many people as possible we have modifi ed our public skating schedule to 

have two (2) time slots back to back during our busy periods.

HEADS UP ON HELMETS 

USE your head - CHOOSE the Right Activity - Get the RIGHT Helmet - WEAR IT EVERY TIME 

Why Should I wear a Helmet - A fall from even 2 feet (60 cm) can cause permanent brain damage - a 

helmet can save your life. Helmets lower your risk of serious head injury by 85%. Be a role model - children 

who see adults and friends wearing a helmet are more likely to wear their own. 

PICK ONE YOU LIKE AND WEAR IT EVERY TIME 

Choosing a Helmet - For Ice Skating you should choose a 

multi impact type helmet such as a hockey helmet 

- Make sure there is a safety sticker inside look for CSA, ASTM, CPSC or SNELL 

- There should NOT be any decorations, paint or stickers on the helmet 

- Helmets have a life span of about 5 years. There should not be any cracks, dents or other damage 

- NEVER wear a hat or wear a high pony tail under a helmet.

CHILDREN’S PHYSICAL ACTIVITY 

PROGRAMS & FEDERAL TAX CREDITS 

Effective January 1, 2007, a federal tax credit is 

available to cover eligible fees for enrolment in a 

physical activity program for children under 

16 years of age. The Children’s Fitness Tax Credit 

will cover eligible fees up to $500 for enrolment in 

a physical activity program per calendar year. A 

separate disability tax credit is available for DTC 

- eligible children up to 18 years. This credit is to 

facilitate access by children and youth to 

physical activity and recreation programs, to help 

them maintain a healthy active lifestyle. 

An eligible program will “support children’s participation 

in all programs that signifi cantly contribute 

to their fi tness.” Programs must have an age-appropriate 

level of physical activity. In keeping with 

Canada’s Physical Activity Guide, eligible programs 

must provide: 

• 30 minutes of sustained moderate to 

vigorous physical activity per session for 

children under the age of 10. 

• 60 minutes of sustained moderate to 

vigorous physical activity per session for 

children over the age of 10. 

This will include many sports, as well as recreational 

activities such as dance lessons. The defi nition 

also recognizes that cardio-respiratory activity is 

not always present, especially when children are 

learning a new sport or skill. The defi nition will take 

into account the general nature of the activities and 

the benefi ts of long-term involvement. 

In addition, the defi nition will recognize the different 

types of eligible programs offered by sport and 

recreation providers including: 

• Seasonal programs, lasting 8 weeks with a 

minimum of one session/week 

• Children’s camps of one week or fi ve consecutive 

days where 50% of the program time is devoted to 

physical activity; 

• Membership in a club, association or other 

organization for two months, more than 50% of the 

programs must be eligible 

• A portion of family membership covering a child’s 

participation in an eligible program will be eligible

Preschoolers will have fun developing basic water skills while learning to be in a swim class independently. Parents 

and the instructor will teach them to get in and out of the water safely, open eyes and blow bubbles under water and 

jump into shallow water. Classes 1-3 parents will be fully involved. Classes 4-6 parents will sit at the side while the 

preschooler becomes more independent. Finally, classes 7-10 the preschooler will participate independently. 

Preschoolers will have fun developing basic water skills. We’ll help them jump into shallow water and teach them to 

get in and out of the water safely, to open their eyes and blow bubbles underwater. They will try floats and glides on 

their front and back and experience floating wearing a PFD.

while submerged, progressing toward being able to do 10 cycles. Using a buoyant aid, they will move through the 

water unassisted working on kicking and gliding on their front and back (1-3m). 

Preschoolers will jump into chest deep water independently and return to the wall. They will continue to develop 

skills such as exiting the water safely with a PFD, kicking on their front and back (1-3m), front and back floats with 

an aid, submerging and exhaling. 

Advanced Preschoolers will learn to do solo jumps into deeper water and exiting the water safely. They’ll learn to 

support themselves at the surface (5-10 sec.) and to recover objects from the bottom in deeper water with their eyes 

open. They will practice moving forward and backward wearing a PFD (3-5m) and master front and back kicks 

(3-5m). New challenges will include the introduction to front and back crawl (3-5m).

EAST BAYFIELD C.C. SWIM LESSONS - FALL 

1. We DO NOT allow parents/guardians to watch lessons on the deck. Thank you. 

We ask that you exit the pool area and view your child’s lesson from the viewing gallery. 


3. For cleanliness and health reasons, we do not allow shoes/ boots in the shower area or on the pool deck when bringing your child(ren) to 

their class. 



DID YOU KNOW - 

During most lesson times, a DECK SUPERVISOR is available to answer 

questions, address concerns and to provide a link between you and the busy instructor. Don’t wait 

until the last class; speak to the Deck Supervisor immediately.

bags, boxes and newsprint. Please see our website www.barrie.ca for a complete 

list of bin liner options. Yard waste is not accepted in the organics program so please

of your bin during the winter: 

- keep your organics cart in the garage. 

- line your bin with crumpled newspaper, boxboard, fibre egg cartons or 

large paper bags. 

- put food waste in cardboard boxes or paper bags, or wrap in newspaper 

before putting them in the curbside bin. 

- try putting your lined kitchen organic container in the freezer and then 

place it in curbside bin just prior to collection.

Room Bookings at City Hall 

If you are a registered charitable or non-profit organization, you may book 

a meeting room in City Hall. There is a fee for non-profit organizations; 

registered charitable groups may use the facility free of charge unless booking 

on a weekend or holiday. For more information, please contact the City Clerk’s 

Office at 739-4205. 

Sign By-law 

The City of Barrie has a comprehensive sign by-law regulating the placement 

of signs. Contact Municipal Law Enforcement at 739-4241 or visit 56 Mulcaster 

Street, Barrie to obtain information BEFORE you erect ANY sign. 

Smoke Alarms 

It is provincial law that every home have at least one working smoke alarm, 

preferably one on each level. It can be either electrically wired or battery 

operated. 

Snow Clearing 

The City of Barrie has assigned a priority to each street in Barrie. The priority 

for snow clearing is as follows: 

1. Four lane major arterials, transit routes, some industrial roads 

2. Collectors (i.e. Grove Street) and all other industrial roads 

3. Residential streets 

The City’s use of a priority snow removal system may explain why your street 

has not been plowed and the street next to you has. During or after a snowfall, 

major roads and collector routes are cleared first to ensure that emergency 

service vehicles can travel safely. In an ongoing snowfall situation, the City 

concentrates first on the priority streets. Secondary and residential routes are 

cleared as required and may receive a similar service but not 24 hours a day, 

seven days per week. For more information, please call 739-4255. 

Do not place your recycling boxes on top of a snowbank. This presents difficulties 

to the collectors as it makes it harder for them to reach the recycling boxes to 

empty them. Instead, please place your recycling boxes in your driveway so that 

they are safe from the road and easier for the collectors to reach. 

Try to keep recycling boxes a few feet away from the road and snow bank. This 

prevents your recycling boxes from being damaged or buried by snow plows, 

collection trucks and other traffic. 

Street Numbering Requirements 

• House numbers must be clearly visible from the road or highway 

• Must be plain legible numbers on a contrasting background 

(example black number on white background) 

• Must be a minimum of 4 inches in height 

Street Sweeping 

Street sweeping is a 3 step process. The first step is to flush the street. Street 

sweeping in the City of Barrie is done by a contractor and starts mid-April and 

continues to mid-May. Sweeping will be started in high demand areas and work 

outward. It takes approximately one month to complete the sweeping of the city, 

however, it is very weather dependent. 

Tax Office 

You can reach the City of Barrie Tax Office directly by calling 739-4230 during 

regular business hours (8:30 a.m. - 4:30 p.m. Monday to Friday).

Tax Payments - Pre-Authorized Payments 

There are 3 pre-authorized payment (PAP) plans offered to all City of Barrie 

taxpayers: 

1. MONTHLY (for properties NOT in arrears) 

The interim bill (issued in January, and based on 50% of the previous years 

annualized taxes) is divided into 5 equal installments from January to May. 

The final bill (issued in May/June) is divided into 5 equal installments from 

June to October - no interim tax bill will be issued; the final tax bill will indicate 

the amount of installments from June to October. installments are withdrawn 

from your bank account on the last business day of each month. 

2. DUE DATES (for properties NOT in arrears) 

Withdrawals will be made on the due dates indicated on the interim and final 

tax bills. 

3. ARREARS - for properties and businesses with tax arrears 

Must enter into an acceptable payment schedule with finance staff (call 

739-4230). Agreed-upon monthly payments will be withdrawn on the last 

working day of each month. Both interim and final tax bills will be issued. 

Penalty/interest will be added based on existing policy. Once the tax account 

is paid-to-date, taxpayer will be able to choose either “Monthly” or “Due Date” 

options. 

Payments can also be made in person by cash, debit card, cheque, and postdated 

cheque in the Finance Department, 70 Collier Street, 8:30 a.m. - 4:30 

p.m., Monday to Friday. Payments can also be made through any chartered 

bank in Canada (include your tax stub), electronic transfer through your 

financial institution (check with them for details), after hours drop box at 70 

Collier Street (cheque and stub) or mail your payments (must be received on 

or before the due date to avoid penalties and interest charges). Credit cards 

are not accepted for tax payments. 

Traffic Signals and Signs 

Call 739-4255 (press #4) if traffic signals are malfunctioning or if stop or yield 

signs are down. 

Transient Marina 

The City of Barrie offers a total of 50 spaces for transient docking at the 

Marina and the Bayfiled St. boat basin. These boatslips can accommodate 

vessels up to 60’ in length, and all have 30 amp power hook-ups and access 

to potable water. 

The docking rates are $25/night. To ensure availability for as many visitors 

as possible there is a one week limit on the length of time a boat may utilize 

a transient berth. Some of the transient docks may be reserved in advance 

by phone at (705) 739-4218 or by email marina@barrie.ca 

Tree Planting on Boulevards 

In a new subdivision, it is the developer’s responsibility to place boulevard 

trees. Residents on older streets can request a boulevard tree by calling 739- 

4255. Providing requests meet the utility set back criteria, they will be placed 

on a waiting list for available trees. Boulevard trees removed by Forestry staff 

are automatically added to the waiting list. 

Tree Trimming 

The City’s Forestry section of Parks Operations trims trees on boulevards, 

in public parks and trims trees and bushes back when they are obstructing 

traffic signs, or the view of motorists at an intersection. The City does not trim 

trees on private property. For more details, call 739-4255. 

Water Hydrants 

Why not adopt a hydrant and take care of it in heavy snowfalls? When 

high snowfalls make our hydrants nearly invisible, some residents take the 

initiative to shovel out their nearest hydrant. This ensures them of quick action 


by the Fire Department in an emergency. A contractor is responsible for 

clearing snow off all hydrants when necessary, but with over 2,900 hydrants 

it is difficult to get to them all quickly. For more details, call 739-4255. 

Water Supply 

The City of Barrie is fortunate to have an abundance of ground water (ground 

water is the water located in the saturated zone of the earth’s crust). The 

Barrie potable ground water supply has grown from a single well and reservoir 

that were located at the corner of Mary and Simcoe Streets, to a system today 

of fourteen wells, five booster pumping stations and six reservoirs. 

The Barrie wells range in depth from 61 metres below ground level at the 

elevation of Kempenfelt Bay to 110 metres below ground level further inland 

from the bay. The double wall, gravel pack construction of the Barrie wells 

make them very secure from bacterial contamination. The water treatment 

process for the well supplies in Barrie consists of chlorination for disinfection, 

and the addition of sodium silicate, which is used to keep iron in solution.

Water Conservation Tips 

1. Position sprinklers to avoid watering patios, driveways and walks. 

2. Sweep driveways and walkways instead of washing with a hose. 

3. Keep the blades of lawn mowers sharp; dull blades 

tear the grass, leaving it open to disease and heat stress. 

4. Avoid cutting grass when it is wet. 

5. Leave grass clippings on the lawn as they are an 

excellent source of nitrogen. 

6. Use mulch in gardens. Mulch keeps soil cool and 

moist, controls erosion and discourages weed growth. 

7. Aeration of lawns helps give soil a fresh start by 

reducing compaction, improving penetration, drying wet soils and helping 

oxygen and organic materials to reach the roots, thereby maximizing the 

uptake of nutrients by the grass. 

For more information about Water Conservation, 

call 739-4254.

ADOPT-A-PARK/TRAIL PROGRAM 

The City of Barrie’s Adopt-A-Park/Trail Program has 

been established as a community service program for 

volunteers to assist in keeping our community green 

spaces safe from vandalism and free from garbage. 

Under the program, the registered participant agrees take ownership of a

at City Hall, City Recreation Centres, and the Barrie Public Library. 

PLAYGROUNDS 

All City playground areas are unsupervised. Parents and guardians assume 

all risks for children playing on equipment. Users are cautioned that 

the shock absorption of falls onto the safety surfacing is reduced by freezing 

temperatures and compaction due to heavy use. The Leisure, Transit 

and Works Department regularly inspects all equipment for 

maintenance purposes, however, we appreciate calls from the public 

notifying us of any broken or vandalized park equipment when observed. 

Please call the PLAYGROUND NUMBER at 739-4262.

Environmental Protection Areas 

FENCING POLICY 

It is the City of Barrie’s policy to fence Open Space, Parkland and 

all Environmental Protection lands where residential lands abut 

City property with 5’ chain link fencing to: 

* to prevent private encroachments onto public lands 

* prevent family pets from running illegally off leash through 

sensitive natural areas and chasing wildlife 

* prevent yard waste dumping. Although yard waste is organic 

matter, dumping changes the soil layer under tree canopies and 

can crush or suffocate the root network lying just beneath the soil 

surface. Residents are asked to use the municipal yard waste 

collection service. Please report any illegal dumping to Municipal 

Law Enforcement at 739-4241. 

Residents are not permitted to remove City fencing and install 

gates for personal access. This is considered damaging City 

property and homeowners will be required to re-instate the 

damaged fence or will be billed for repairs. Please report any 

damaged fencing to the Leisure, Transit and Works Department 

at 739-4223. 

SNOWMOBILES, ATVs, DIRTBIKES etc. 

ARE NOT PERMITTED IN CITY GREENSPACES 

PARK REGULATIONS 

Your cooperation in following several rules that have been 

established to maintain our safe and beautiful parks is appreciated. 

1. By-law 87-76 requires dog owners to clean up after their dog 

with the City limits. 

2. Dogs must be kept leashed in all City parks. 

3. Dogs are not allowed on beaches at Johnson, Minets Point or 

Tyndale Park. Designated walkways in Centennial, Heritage 

and Allandale Station Parks permit leashed dogs only. 

4. Motorized vehicles other than authorized vehicles are not 

allowed in parks. This includes snowmobiles, motorbikes or 

automobiles. Irresponsible vehicle users can do tremendous 

damage to our lovely parks and natural areas. 

5. For the safety of all park users, golfing is not permitted in City 

parks. 

6. Alcoholic beverages are not permitted in City parks.

GARDENING ON THE CITY BOULEVARD 

Residents have shown an interest in expanding their gardens onto the City boulevard in front of their homes. Boulevard gardens celebrate 

our civic pride by beautifying our neighbourhoods and diversifying our urban biomass. Homeowners can also participate in the Communities 

In Bloom program and contribute to Barrie’s national reputation as an award winning municipality. 

Before starting your boulevard garden, pick up a copy of the Boulevard Garden Guidelines and register your garden with the City. This will 

help prevent conflicts with snow removal, servicing and public safety. Registered garden owners will receive warning prior to any works on 

their boulevard in timer to remove plant material. Non-registered gardens will be given no notice and sod will be reinstated on the boulevard. 

REGISTER TODAY - IT’S EASY!: Pick up a copy of the form at City Hall, The Library or download one from the City web page at 

www.city.barrie.on.ca under Community > Parks > Boulevard Gardens. Sign and submit to any City facility. You’re ready to garden! 

PESTICIDE USE POLICY 

The City of Barrie uses the Plant Health 

Care System combined with maintenance 

standards to reduce pesticide use on 

municipal land to the point of elimination. 

Private property owners are actively 

encouraged to practice healthy lawn and 

garden strategies to eliminate the need to 

use pesticides. 

Pick up your FREE BROCHURE at City 

Hall, City Recreation Centres or the Library 

for great tips on how to grow a healthy lawn 

without using pesticides. 

FALL LAWN CARE TIPS 

As temperatures cool and fall rains begin, grass will 

regain its green colour. 

1. Fertilize in September and October with a slow 

release mineral or organic fertilizer. 

2. Aerate if needed - do not dethatch, makes turf 

vulnerable to diseases. 

3. Overseed and reseed bare patches with mixture 

of pest resistant seeds. Early September is best 

time, when temperatures are in the high teens, ideal 

for germination. 

Information also available at www..barrie.ca 

under Community > Parks > Pesticides.

STREET TREE PLANTING PROGRAM 

The City of Barrie can be proud of its commitment to beautify and 

improve the urban environment through the introduction of trees on municipal 

boulevards. The Street Tree Planting Program exists for the many 

benefits trees provide to our city. 

Trees generate oxygen and remove greenhouse gases, filter dust and 

pollution, decrease heating and cooling costs, provide 

windbreaks and increase property values. 

Trees also act as privacy screens, create food and habitat for wildlife 

and add to the natural beauty of our city. 

All new subdivisions are required to be planted and maintained by 

the subdivision developer until final assumption by the City. The City 

provides replacement trees in established areas of the City provided the 

location conforms with minimum setback standards and is clear of all 

utilities (Note: some trees can not be replaced for various reasons, such 

as new or existing utility or traffic safety 

setbacks can not be maintained resulting in the site being 

inappropriate for planting another tree). 

If you would like to request a tree, please call the City of Barrie at 

739-4223 to have a request form completed. Trees will be 

planted as soon budgets permit during the annual tree planting 

contract. If you would like more information on the Street Tree 

Planting Program, please check out the City of Barrie website at: 

http://www.city.barrie.on.ca/ and follow the links: 

Community > Recreation Information > Parks > Our Urban Forest. 

Currently, there is a 2-year waiting period between the time of tree 

removal (or request for a new tree) to the actual replacement tree 

being planted. Staff are working to reduce this time limit, however 

several main factors cause this delay: 

1. In the case of mature tree removals, the stump and sometime 

major roots must be removed prior to replanting the boulevard. 

Generally, stump removal is a contracted service that is completed 

in the fall of each year. 

2. Replacement planting is a contracted service that only takes 

place once annually, in the spring (preferably) or fall of the year; 

and 

3. Budgets are not unlimited: each new replacement tree is in 

excess of $300 plus administrative costs. 

Did You Know? Native plants have adapted to local climatic 

conditions over thousands of years; once established they are able 

to stay healthy with little watering and without the use of chemical 

pesticides or fertilizers. Native plants are also important to the 

survival of our urban wildlife, such as songbirds and butterflies, 

since they provide essential food and shelter. Whenever possible, 

choose to plant native species. 

TREE CARE “TO DO” LIST 

General Management Practices That Improve Tree Health 

Watering 

1. Keep the soil moist but not soaked; over-watering may cause 

leaves to turn yellow or fall off. When the soil is dry beneath the mulch, it is 

time to water. Typically, a young tree will require 

5-10 gallons (20-40 litres) of water per week, depending upon rainfall and 

temperature. The best way to water is let a hose trickle into the mulch 

underneath the tree, until the desired amount of water is applied. Continue 

watering until mid-fall, reducing the amount as temperatures lower. 

2. Water your trees during dry spells. Infrequent, but deep soaking 

preferably during the early morning hours is recommended to develop a 

deeper root system, improving a trees tolerance to drought. 

3. Trees have extensive root systems, which spread from the base in 

all directions far beyond the crown limit (dripline) of the tree. The absorbing 

roots, responsible for water uptake, are located in this area in the upper 20- 

30cm of the soil. It is important to provide water for all of these roots. 

4. Young, newly planted trees are more sensitive to the water regime 

than the older established trees. Transplanted trees require more frequent 

watering, until the root system is established. The volume and frequency of 

watering also depends on the type of the soil. Clay soils hold water longer 

than sandy soils. Trees in clay soils need to be watered slowly over a longer 

period of time. Trees in sandy soils require watering more often. 

5. Do not water the canopy of the tree, except where it is specifically 

recommended. Damp leaves may promote foliar disease development. 

Mulching 

Place organic mulch (wood chips, bark, pine needles) in a layer 2-3 inches 

(7-10 cm) deep around the tree base to keep the soil moist for longer periods 

and encourage healthier roots. Mulching is good practice to preserve soil 

moisture content. 

Mulching also: 

* Prevents soil compaction in tree root zones. 

* Reduces weed competition. 

* Protects the main stem from injuries caused by lawn equipment. 

* Improves physical and chemical properties of soil. 

NOTE: Mulch must be kept away from the tree bark or it will cause the bark 

to decay. 

TREE CARE “DON’TS!” 

Activities That are Detrimental to Tree Health 

1. Do not mound mulch and / or soil into a mountain around the 

tree, a small bowl is best, as illustrated in the adjacent 

illustration. 

2. Never pile rocks, mound soil or build structures around the tree, 

as it will cause harm to the roots (by preventing water and 

oxygen from reaching the roots). 

3. Avoid any unnecessary excavating, grade changes, soil 

compaction, root cutting or hard resurfacing around trees as 

these activities destroy vital roots which may lead to tree decline 

or death. 

4. Never cut the main leader (center branch at the top). 

5. Avoid tying, nailing or attaching anything to the trunk of the tree. 

6. Refrain from using salt or herbicides around trees.
