Presentations There were no presentations. 6. Delegations 6.1 Juliette Young, Kimberly Martin, Paulette Senior, and Dianne Barham Break the Chains Pickering Re: Anti -Black Racism Juliette Young, Break the Chains Pickering, joined the electronic meeting via audio connection. Ms. Young noted that Break the Chains Pickering is a diverse group of black residents and allies in Pickering, and introduced the team, noting that Kimberly Martin, Paulette Senior, and Dianne Barham were also present via audio connection to answer questions if required. Ms. Young stated that this group of 14 individuals came together in June 2020 to raise their voices against the ever present danger of residents in the black community, and that they held a protest at City Hall to raise awareness and address issues of anti -black racism in Pickering. She noted that in 2016, the black community made up 10.8% of Pickering's population, noting that number was much higher now, and that these residents have encountered anti -black racism in -2 city �h DICKERING Council Meeting Minutes July 27, 2020 Council Chambers 7:00 pm some form. She made reference to Stephen Lewis' 1992 Report to the Premier on Racism in Ontario, noting that the report concluded that at the heart of racism is anti -black racism. She noted that the black community is being shot, faces unemployment, have students that are dropping out of school, and that black employees are disadvantaged. She stated that we need to deal with anti -black racism at its roots and although Pickering Council established a statement against anti -black racism on June 3rd, much more needed to be done. Ms. Young requested that the City establish an anti -black racism task force to develop and implement an anti -black racism strategy to improve upon the systems that perpetuate anti -black racism, uncover and identify the racism that exists, collect race based data to identify and understand the race based gap, support black based businesses and offer more programs for the black community. She noted that she had become aware that the City is planning to create a task force but that Break the Chains was strongly opposed to the Cultural Advisory Committee (CAC) directing the task force as the CAC's mandate does not deal with matters of race but rather focuses on engaging support and advocating for cultural services which should not be confused with matters of race. Ms. Young questioned how the members of the CAC were positioned to establish an anti -black racism task force, how many members identified as black and what experience they had. Ms. Young further noted that the task force should be an independent entity, and that it should be community driven, led by the black community, and would report directly to Council and work collaboratively with City Staff. A question and answer period ensued between Juliette Young, Kimberly Martin, Dianne Barham and. Members of Council regarding: • the CAC's mandate, and whether the mandate speaks to matters of race, or if the Committee was more focused on multiculturalism, art, and the museum; • minutes of the June 16th CAC meeting and the comments regarding the same members of the black community attending events stating that those comments were offensive; • the importance of the task force being driven by the black community, and the need to include members that have in-depth knowledge of anti -black racism and what systemic anti -black racism is; • whether other groups such as Urban Alliance on Race Relations and the Canadian Caribbean Cultural Association could work together as part of the task force; and, • the requirement that the task force be independent from the City, and the importance of it being community led. Deputy Mayor Ashe requested that the City Clerk provide clarity on the minutes of the June 16th CAC meeting and the intent of the comments. -3- 6-4 ,/ DICKERING Council Meeting Minutes July 27, 2020 Council Chambers 7:00 pm Deputy Mayor Ashe noted that he does not believe that the intent in the minutes was to suggest that it was the same black people attending events, but rather that it was to suggest that the whole community is impacted by anti -black racism and apologized if there was a misunderstanding of the minutes. 6.2 Paul White, President Fairport Beach Neighbourhood Association Re: Corr. 36-20 After Hours Response for By-law Enforcement Paul White, President, Fairport Beach Neighbourhood Association, joined the electronic meeting via audio connection to express concerns regarding the City's after hours response for by-law enforcement. Mr. White stated that the popularity of the Frenchman's Bay West Rotary Park beach area and the beach area in Cliffview Park, at Cliffview Road and Park Crescent, has overwhelmed the community on the West side. Mr. White noted that he has called the City's after hours line 4 times in the last 3 weeks, and not once has Staff come out to investigate the situation. He noted incidents of after hours parking, and questioned why there were no parking signs on the Bay Ridges Side, but none on the Fairport Beach side. Mr. White noted that if cars were parked on both sides of the street, it would be difficult for emergency vehicles to access the area, and that as there are no sidewalks, pedestrians must walk on the street creating safety concerns. Mr. White noted that his concerns were being expressed for the 400 homes he represents as President of the Fairport Beach Neighbourhood Association. He concluded by stating that he had reviewed the hours of operations for parks in Whitby, Oshawa and Ajax, and questioned why some parks in Pickering are open until midnight, noting that this late hour just invites trouble and that there should be consistency of park hours across the Region. A brief question and answer period ensued regarding whether Mr. White had obtained enforcement statistics regarding tickets issued after hours from the City's Municipal Law Enforcement Section. Deputy Mayor Ashe noted that the City is reviewing these issues and will follow up with the City's Municipal Law Enforcement Services regarding service delivery options. CJS f PICKERING Council Meeting Minutes July 27, 2020 Council Chambers 7:00 pm 6.3 John Currie Executive Director, Honouring Indigenous Peoples (HIP) Re: Corr. 32-20 Jake Farr, Mental Health Counsellor/Psychotherapist Authentic Self Counselling Services Request for By -Law change - Indigenous Land Acknowledgment John Currie, Executive Director, Honouring Indigenous Peoples (HIP), joined the electronic meeting via audio connection to provide information regarding the development of an Indigenous Land Acknowledgment Statement. Mr. Currie noted that he has been a Pickering resident for 25 years, is the President of the Rotary Club of Pickering and serves as an advisor on the City of Pickering's Cultural Advisory Committee. Mr. Currie acknowledged that the City has been working to establish a relationship with the Indigenous community, but noted the length of time that has passed since the initiative began. Mr. Currie stated that he has witnessed more harm than good when creating a land acknowledgement statement without input from the Indigenous community and that it creates colonialism and misses the point of what reconciliation is all about. He stated that the City needs to be reminded of the relationship to the land, that Pickering's lands are within the Williams Treaty Guidelines and that the City would need to work with the Mississaugas of Scugog Island in developing an Indigenous Land Statement. He noted that the City had been on track with developing the acknowledgment, but that COVID-19 had halted their process. Mr. Currie stated that the development of an Indigenous Land Acknowledgment must be done with respect, and that the Indigenous people have experienced numerous oppressions and genocide, and healing and patience are needed. Mr. Currie concluded, stating that the City has the opportunity to use the development of a land acknowledgement statement as a vehicle to build positive and equitable relationships and provide an opportunity to educate citizens. A question and answer period ensued between John Currie and Members of Council regarding: • the circumstances that have delayed the development of an Indigenous Land Acknowledgment Statement at the City of Pickering; • whether the Pickering Library's Indigenous Land Acknowledgment was appropriate for the City and if it captured all of the key components of a successful Indigenous Land Acknowledgment; • if the City should coordinate with the Library in developing their acknowledgement; and, • the timing of creating an Indigenous Land Acknowledgment Statement and the necessary amendments that would be required to the City's Procedural By-law to allow it to be read. -5- Gly,/ PICKERING Council Meeting Minutes July 27, 2020 Council Chambers 7:00 pm 7.

Ms. Carpino noted that the 23 members would be comprised of Pickering residents, stakeholder representatives, 2 Staff members and the Mayor. A question and answer period ensued between Members of Council and Ms. Carpino regarding: • the need to have the community involved, and what is envisioned for the size of the task force; • the role of the CAC in the formation of the task force noting that the task force cannot be led by the CAC; • whether the task force would be reporting directly to Council, and how this process would work; • why the CAC meeting on June 16th was not broadcasted and why the public was unable to participate in this meeting; • why the CAC meeting on July 7th was also not broadcasted and the procedural oversight that had caused this; and, • what role the CAC would play in the anti -black racism task force, and whether the task force should be independent from Staff.

Mr. Bigioni noted that he would provide a memo update in regards to immediate action plans prior to the Executive Committee meeting on August 10th. Mr. Bigioni responded to further questions from Members of Council regarding whether By-law staff were working every weekend for the summer. Mr. Bigioni advised that due to the COVID-19 enforcement, it has been challenging to address some of these issues but that as the Provincial emergency declaration is lifted, it will provide relief to allow By-law Enforcement Officers to devote more resources to by-law and parking enforcement issues. Discussion ensued regarding the COVID-19 enforcement initiatives, noting that By-law Enforcement Officers had been subjected to abuse which created the need for Officers to pair up and work together to increase safety, further limiting the staff resources available for overnight parking patrols. Mr. Bigioni noted that there would be increased staffing for the upcoming long weekend. - 11 - qty,/, DICKERING Council Meeting Minutes July 27, 2020 Council Chambers 7:00 pm Resolution # 376/20 Moved by Councillor Brenner Seconded by Councillor McLean That Corr. 36-20 be referred to Staff for a review of service delivery options for after-hours enforcement, and that Staff report back in October 2020.

Beyond the "In Delivery" and "In Development" transit projects, City staff identifies the following transit projects that would assist in attracting transit riders and transit supportive development: a) the establishment of the Whites Road Priority Bus, extending from the. Pickering GO Station along Bayly Street to Whites Road to Highway 7 (and providing connections to lands in Seaton designated high density residential and Community Node, and to lands in the Seaton Innovation Corridor); b) the implementation of light rail transit along Kingston Road; and, c) the extension of GO rail service to Seaton. 2. Staff recommends that the Region only designate Regional Corridors adjacent to the arterial road corridors that are part of the High Frequency Transit Network; 3. Staff recommends that Transit Oriented Development policies and guidelines for Strategic Growth Areas (SGA) be tailored to the planned level of transit service, providing there is sufficient flexibility at the area municipal level to respect the local context of the specific SGA; 4. Staff supports the development of strategic and transportation -related policies in furtherance of Transit Oriented Development in Major Transit Station Areas, similar to those currently applied to Regional Centres; 5. Staff advises that a key issue that needs to be addressed to increase ridership from transit -supportive development is to allow closer traffic signal spacing to facilitate pedestrian crossings; - 14 - any 6h DICKERING Council Meeting Minutes July 27, 2020 Council Chambers 7:00 pm 6. Staff supports the designation of additional Transit Hubs in the Regional Official Plan, corresponding with designated or future Urban Growth Centres, Regional Centres, or Major Transit Station Area, and providing there is sufficient flexibility at the area municipal level to respect the local context of the specific location; 7. Staff advises that when assessing new development, and reconstructing or building new public roads, new Regional Official Plan policies that would better support planning for all road users include: a) policies indicating that a "complete street" includes the provision of sidewalks/multi use paths, boulevard planting and street lighting, and that it is a Regional responsibility to provide the pedestrian/cycling, planting and street lighting components of a complete street on Regional roads; b) policies allowing closer entrance and intersection spacing along arterials; and, c) policies allowing closer traffic signal spacing along arterials to assist pedestrian crossings, and in keeping with transit -supportive development; 8. Staff advises that the Regional Official Plan could recognize or plan for enhanced trail connections through areas such as hydro corridors, by including: a) an informational map in the Regional Official Plan showing existing cycling and pedestrian trail networks, identifying gaps and opportunities; and, b) a policy encouraging stakeholders (such as the area municipalities, conservation authorities, cycling and trail associations and committees,, etc.) to collaborate with the Region to pursue new cycling/trail connections. 9. Staff supports incorporating into the Regional Official Plan future right-of- way width requirements for specific segments of arterial roads, particularly those sections within or adjacent to Strategic Growth Areas, as this may assist with development application review and Class Environmental Assessments (Class EA); - 15 - Gr, o(, DICKERING Council Meeting Minutes July 27, 2020 Council Chambers 7:00 pm 10. Staff advise that it is appropriate that the Regional Official Plan address using an integrated Class EA and Planning Act process in new growth areas to optimize the alignment and design of arterial roads as the combined processes would allow for a comprehensive evaluation, reduce duplication in meeting Provincial requirements, and expedite development; 11. With regards to the Region continuing its support for carpooling, staff recommends the Region: a) play a larger role in the provision of purpose-built commuter lots beyond the Small Urban and Rural Carpool Lot Program to implement commuter lots along major arterial roads and highways; b) continue its role engaging with area municipalities and businesses to promote carpooling programs in key destinations that provide connectivity to transit and active transportation networks both within and between municipalities in the GTHA; and, c) seek the use of more social media tools and real-time information to facilitate user participation and parking availability to enhance the effectiveness of carpool programs; 12. Staff identifies that the potential implications of emerging technologies on the Region's transportation system may include: a) opportunities to adapt existing infrastructure to improve mobility options, such as taking away a vehicular lane and reallocating it for cyclist and pedestrians; b) continued transformation and impacts to industry, labour, and consumer behaviour, and the resulting changes in travel patterns; c) increased demand for secure, reliable and widespread broadband infrastructure across the Region so that the many technologies (such as on -demand travel options for Uber or Lyft, car and bike sharing, etc.) are available to all; d) reduced individual auto use and ownership, and decreased share of transit users as users take advantage of the increase in fast, flexible, and convenient mobility options; - 16 - DICKERING Council Meeting Minutes July 27, 2020 Council Chambers 7:00 pm e) an increasing need for well connected and integrated physical transportation infrastructure so that users can easily transfer between transportation services and modes; and, f) increased disparity between lower and higher income communities, as many of the emerging technologies may be more expensive than traditional public transportation (since they require the use of a smart phone and internet connection). 13. Staff recommends that, in addition to supporting the Regional economic role of the ports, the Regional Official Plan also include a policy about the importance of maintaining the safety, security, and environmental protection of these waterfront employment lands to ensure the long-term use of the lands and future expansions or redevelopment, as necessary; 14. Staff recommends that supporting the Strategic Goods Movement while preserving a complete streets approach include design standards that not only best manage the movement of goods (e.g., implementing street elements for loading and deliveries, traffic calming, off -hour delivery programs), but also supports Durham Vision Zero to mitigate pedestrian/cyclist and freight conflicts; 15. Staff suggests the Region consider introducing an electric mobility strategy in relation to infrastructure, land use, and goods movement strategies as part of the Transportation System; 16. The Region is requested to assist Pickering in: a) working with VIA Rail and Metrolinx to implement high frequency service on the CPR Havelock rail line; and, b) identifying the appropriate location for a VIA Rail station along the CPR Havelock rail line within, or in proximity, to the Federal Pickering Lands as part of the transportation system component of Envision Durham. 17. The Region is requested to support Pickering's interest in establishing a VIA Rail stop at the Pickering GO Station to help increase higher order transit connections to and from the Region. - 17 - y DICKERING Council Meeting Minutes July 27, 2020 Council Chambers 7:00 pm Resolution # 379/20 Moved by Councillor Brenner Seconded by Councillor Butt That Report PD 2020-04 of the Planning & Development Committee Meeting held on July 13, 2020 be adopted, save and except Item 9.2.

Discussion ensued regarding the words "existing neighbourhoods" in the Motion, and whether this refers to infill construction, with Members of Council noting that the intent of this Motion was for construction that is occurring within an existing neighbourhood, such as Chestnut Hill in Bay Ridges. Resolution # 388/20 Moved by Councillor Brenner Seconded by Councillor Butt WHEREAS, the Province of Ontario enacted legislation under Section 451.1 of the Municipal Act, 2001, S.O. 2001, c. 25, removing all powers for a municipality to prohibit and regulate with respect to noise caused by any construction; And Whereas, the City of Pickering understands the need for construction projects and services in a municipality associated with the healthcare sector, including new facilities, expansions, renovations and conversion of spaces that could be repurposed for healthcare space, to be completed in a timely manner by permitting such construction without any time limits; And Whereas, the Province further enabled any other construction activity in a municipality to take place between the hours of 6:00 am and 10:00 pm, seven days a week; - 24 - Gly od DICKERING Council Meeting Minutes July 27, 2020 Council Chambers 7:00 pm And Whereas, by removing the ability of a municipality to regulate construction noise when it impacts established residential communities, residents rights to reasonable enjoyment of their property have been breached, including young children and persons that are being disturbed and impacting their ability to sleep; And Whereas, the City of Pickering Noise By-law regulates activities prohibited by time, including the operation of construction equipment from 7:00 am to 7:00 pm on Sundays and statutory holidays; Now Therefore be it resolved that the Council of The Corporation of the City of Pickering request that the Legislation be amended to exclude residential construction where it is part of an existing neighbourhood, enabling municipalities to enforce its own noise by-laws; And that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to the Premier of Ontario, all Durham MPPs and the Region of Durham. Carried Unanimously on a Recorded Vote 11.3 Property Tax Rebates - Heritage Properties Having previously declared a conflict of interest, Councillor McLean did not take part in the discussion or vote on this item. Members of Council provided a brief overview of the motion, noting that the intent of the motion is to encourage property owners to protect the City's heritage, and that the start date of this rebate program would be consistent with the beginning of the 2021 tax year. It was noted that this program is designed to help residents that own heritage homes, and is not available for non-residential buildings. A question and answer period ensued between Members of Council and Stan Karwowski, Director, Finance & Treasurer, regarding: • whether this program would be supported by the Region of Durham, or if the rebate program would only apply to the City and school board portion of taxes; • whether existing owners of heritage homes could apply for the rebate program, or whether it was only for new homeowners; • if residents could apply for the rebate program to help maintain certain heritage features on their homes; - 25 - C1111 ey! DICKERING Council Meeting Minutes July 27, 2020 Council Chambers 7:00 pm • how many heritage homes there are in Pickering, and what the financial impact would be on the City if all of the homeowners who owned heritage properties were to sign up for the program; and, • if industrial and commercial property owners could apply for the rebate program. Resolution # 389/20 Moved by Councillor Brenner Seconded by Councillor Butt WHEREAS, a heritage property tax rebate may be applied to designated properties and properties located in a designated heritage district; And Whereas, there are 17 properties within the City that are individually designated under Part IV of the Ontario Heritage Act (OHA); And Whereas, there are 77 properties in Whitevale that are designated within its Heritage Conservation District under Part V of the OHA and, 24 of these are without historical or architectural importance, but are legally designated; Now Therefore be it resolved that the Council of The Corporation of the City of Pickering: 1. Directs staff to develop a Heritage Property Tax Rebate Program in discussion with the Heritage Pickering Advisory Committee, and a report and corresponding By-law be brought back to Council before the December 14, 2020, last Council meeting of this year; and, 2. That the Pickering Heritage Property Tax Rebate Program be developed with the following guiding principles: a. The program has a start date of January 1, 2021, with a Heritage Property Tax Rebate amount established at 20 percent; b. Only residential properties (or the portion of the property classified as residential), designated under Part IV or Part V of the Ontario Heritage Act, are eligible for the rebate; c. Any property receiving a Heritage Property Tax Rebate requires the property owner to enter into a Heritage Conservation Agreement (HCA) with the City of Pickering respecting preservation and maintenance of the property; - 26 - C4 �f PICKERING Council Meeting Minutes July 27, 2020 Council Chambers 7:00 pm d. The HCA will be permanently registered on title and the agreement will permit City staff on an annual basis to conduct either an exterior or interior inspection of the property at a mutually agreeable date and time; e. To receive a Heritage Property Tax Rebate, there must be no un- paid property taxes, or other monies owed to the City of Pickering; and, f. The Heritage Property Tax Rebate shall be repaid in full by the owner for every year there is non-compliance with the HCA. Note: The disposition of this matter was determined through the referral motion below Resolution # 390/20 Moved by Councillor Cumming Seconded by Councillor Pickles 1. That the Notice of Motion, Property Tax Rebates - Heritage Properties, be referred back to Staff to clarify the number of designated heritage homes that would be eligible to take part in the program, the potential costs of the program to taxpayers, and identification of the number of homes designated under the Heritage Act that are owned by either the Provincial or Federal Government with consideration of excluding those properties from the program; and, 2. That Staff report back at the September 14th Executive Committee meeting. Carried 11.4 Strengthening Land Use Policies and Guidelines for the Waterfront/Nautical Village Members of Council provided an overview of this motion, noting that there have been two applications in the waterfront area recently that have caused great concern in the community and that residents wanted assurance that this won't continue. It was noted that the development of Land Use Policies and Guidelines for the Waterfront/Nautical Village is a step in the right direction and that development vision should not be driven by developers. - 27 - DICKERING Council Meeting Minutes July 27, 2020 Council Chambers 7:00 pm Members commented that these Guidelines would build upon the Waterfront 2001 Interim Report Task Force on the Pickering Waterfront and that it is clear that the waterfront is a people place, and not a place for intensification, and that the development of these Guidelines would include the engagement of the community and other stakeholders. Discussion ensued regarding development at the waterfront, with Members of Council noting that it is not only the residents that live at the waterfront that don't want development there, but all City of Pickering residents who enjoy this space. It was noted that now is the time to make the development of these Guidelines a priority. Kyle Bentley, Director, City Development & CBO, responded to Members questions pertaining to the result of this process, noting that the outcome could include Official Plan amendments, neighbourhood guidelines, policies, etc., and that the City would likely retain a consultant to review what has already been completed. Cathy Rose, Chief Planner, noted that she has done some research into interim control by-laws (ICB), and that the typical purpose of an ICB is to prevent something from occurring which is already permitted by existing zoning provisions. She further noted that an ICB could possibly specify that no new applications could be submitted, and that this may be an opportunity that the City could explore as opposed to trying to prevent an applicant from submitting an application. She further noted that Staff would consider what an ICB could permit, and what it would restrict. Members of Council expressed concern with the implementation of an ICB, noting that this may take away people's rights as it may limit what they are able to build on their own properties if they live within the area that is restricted by an ICB. Resolution # 391/20 Moved by Councillor McLean Seconded by Councillor Brenner WHEREAS, in 1997, the City of Pickering adopted the Waterfront 2001 Interim Report Task Force on the Pickering Waterfront; And Whereas, the Task Force Report provided a foundation for the development of a vision for the Nautical Village, and Council adopted the Liverpool Road - 28 - cty PICKERING Council Meeting Minutes July 27, 2020.

Ms. Eddy noted that as many Staff fall under the collective agreement, the City would have to bargain with the Union to make any amendments to the agreement, but that preliminary discussions are ongoing regarding work from home possibilities due to the spacing issues for Staff. Ms. Eddy further noted that the Work from Home Procedure was being utilized for the time being, and once the COVID-19 pandemic has passed, any remote working opportunities would be addressed through bargaining. Councillor Brenner advised that his request was more of a visionary and philosophical exercise to find new ways for the. City to conduct business, and that he would provide notice this evening, and have further discussions with the Interim Chief Administrative Office and the Director, Human Resources to decide whether to proceed with bringing forward the Notice of Motion. 14.4 Councillor Butt noted that he had discussed the Notice of Motion pertaining to the use of barbeques in City Parks with the Director, Legislative Services & City Solicitor, who had advised that the City's current by-law allows for the use of small propane tanks and Coleman stoves in City Parks.
