Resolution # 43/11 Moved by Councillor O'Connell Seconded by Councillor Rodrigues WHEREAS In the spring and summer of 2008, during the public discussions regarding elimination of inental health beds at the Ajax-Pickering Hospital, members of Friends of the Ajax-Pickering Hospital wrote to the Minister of Health asking that the Rouge Valley Health System be dissolved and that the Ajax-Pickering Hospital be amalgamated with the Lakeridge Health Network; and WHEREAS The Ajax-Pickering Hospital is undergoing a major expansion of emergency care capabilities. There was also to have been an expansion of inental health in-patient services but RVHS decided last year to relocate all of those services to Centenary. Despite public outcry in opposition to this change, both the LHIN and the Courts have ruled that changes such as this one, within a healthcare corporation, are not subject to external review; and WHEREAS the projections indicate that the population of Durham Region will grow at more than twice the rate of any other community or county within the CELHIN. The total population of Durham will quickly and significantly exceed that of Scarborough; and WHEREAS As the Region's population grows it will be crucial to have a coordinated, Region-wide view to implementing and managing healthcare resources and none of these are more important than the critical care hospitals serving the Region. A single corporation focused on Durham Region is the simplest and most affordable way to realize this goal; and WHEREAS A Durham Region focus will significantly improve fundraising from all three sources within Durham Region: local and regional focus will appeal to the local nature of communities. As the communities of Durham Region grow from Pickering to Newcastle there is a legitimate expectation that a broad range of inedical services will be available here. NOW THEREFORE the Council for the City of Pickering supports a single hospital corporation for all communities within Durham Region; and, 3 ., ,,... ;._ ti��;��=, 1 �. °-� �.,�, i�.� � ������� i ': Council Meeting Minutes Monday March 21, 2011 7:30 PM Council Chambers That the Central East Local Health Integration Network be requested to explore how this goal might be best achieved to serve the residents of Durham Region; and, That all municipalities in Durham Region and the CELIHN be so advised.

We have been working diligently in obtaining signatures on petitions and speaking to our city councils to ask them to endorse Bi1122 because in every community there are grandparents and grandchildren whom are adversely affected by a forced separation. It has been reported that there are 100,000 children in Ontario who do not have contact with their grandparents often due to the death of a spouse, divorce, or a family rift. A.wedge between adult generations and grandparents separates grandchildren from their grandparents' love and support. In Ontario there are continuing difficulties in obtaining contact with grandchildren through the court system because the current Children's Law Reform Act does not recognize.a grandparent as an interested extended family member, but rather, a third party much like your next door neighbour or mailman. Bill 22, a private members Bill by MPP Kim Craitor amends the Children's law Reform Act. After passing second reading on Sept. 23`d 2010 it was referred to the Standing Committee on Social Policy where it is today. This common sense Bill will reunite families in Ontario yet it has died in three previous sessions of parliament even though all three parties voted unanimously in favour of Bill 22. Bi1122 contains a list of matters that a court must consider when determining the best interests of the child. The Bill amends the subsection to include a specifc reference to the importance of maintaining emotional ties between children and grandparents. The bill states that a person whom has custody of a child shall not unreasonably place obstacles between the child and the child's grandparents; and the court shall give effect to the principle that a child should have as much contact with each parent and grandparent as is consistent with the best interests of the child. Ultimately, this bill will give children a voice and opportunities to their family groups that they might otherwise not have. Quebec, BC and Alberta already have access laws that recognizes and enshrine a grandparent as an interested family member that can benefit a child when the courts are petitioned for access. Bill 22 is a necessary amendment to the Children's Law Reform Act so that children in Ontario can enjoy and attain the same privileges to their grandparents as other children enjoy in Quebec, BC, and Alberta. Also, fifty states have legislated laws that give.grandparents and grandchildren access to each other. It would be beneficial if the City of Pickering can recornmend that Bill 22 be legislated in order to see justice served in the name of love, integrity, and humanity. An endorsement from the City of Pickering would be appreciated and can be sent to Trevor Day, The Clerk for The Standing Committee on Social Policy, Email: trevor day@ontla.ola.org and a copy to josiechausse@hotmail.com Sincerely Yours i �_ � ' •-��--�.-,e:�-��.-t � c�: cGG��.� ;;. :. `Josephme Chausse Enclosures: Bi1122, Letters of support from MP's and MPP's; CAW support letters, City endorsements ��il 22 2oio An Act to amend the Children's Law Reform Act Note: This Act amends the Children's Law Reform Act.

J � EXPLANATORY NOTE NOTE EXPLICATIVE The Bill amends the Children's Law Reform Act to emphasize the importance of children's relationships with their parents and grandpazents. Subseciion 20 (2.1) of the Act requires parents and others with custody of children to refrain from unreasonably piacing obsta- cles to personal relations between the children and their grand- parents. Subsection 24 (2) of the Act contains a list of matters that a court must consider when determining the best interests of a chiid. The Bill amends that subsection to include a specific ref- erence to the importance of maintaining emotional ties beiween children and grandparents and the wil)ingness of each person aPPlying for custody to facilitate as much contact with each parent and grandparent as is consistent with the best interests of the child. Subsection 24 (2.1) of the Act requires the court to give effect to the principle that a child should have as much contact with each parent and grandpazent as is consistent with the best interests of the child.

Bi1122 has passed 2"d reading within the Legislative Assembly of Ontario and is currently awaiting a review by the standing committee on Social Policy. This Bill is designed to assist grandparents who have been denied access to their grandchildren. It also addresses the issues of denied visitation and possible custody arrangements. This Private Member's Bill will require the courts to look at the best interests of a child when there is an application submitted by a Grandparent. Please accept this letter as support for this worthwhile Provincial initiative to amend the Children's Law Reform Act that will emphasize the importance of a child's relationship with their parents and grandparents. As the Grandfather of 4 I fully support Bi1122. Yours truly, l� G�n-�� Joe Comartin, MP Windsor Tecumseh Parliamentary Off1ce: Suite 713 Justice BIdg6,AHouse of Commons, Ottawa, Ontario KiA 0i16 N 3.

King Township has contributed $3,000 to the early stages of this campaign, which will allow this citizen-based, charitable non-profit organization to continue with work on behalf of the citizens in each of the moraine's municipalities. In 10 years the Oak Ridges Moraine Land Trust has secured 3,317 acres, largeiy with Conservation Easements registered on title by willing land-owners. Through their own commitment to a healthy future, these land owners know that the moraine supports the headwaters of 65 rivers and streams, holds, cleanses and releases water and supports diverse species and ecosystems throughout each of our municipalities. This is not a campaign to purchase land. This is a campaign to help this organization negotiate and encourage securement and stewardship efforts that cost a fraction of what fee simple purchase would. The fund will support the many hours of work that go into builtling landowner relationships, explaining options antl benefits and ensuring that landowners understand the goals of protection and how it will benefit all publics. The Trust, even in pursuit of'donated' properties, often incurs expenses of $20,000 -50,000 per property through survey, appraisal, legal and other fees. The fun�+ �vi!! support direct ste��!ardsh!p acti�,�jtV p!1 Ia^c+s tha±lhe Trust does own and it will be leveraped to encourage further investment from other sources. And, it will allow the Trust to undertake a focused communications and outreach program to engage with thought leaders in each of our municipalities discussing not only the importance of the moraine but different forms of securement to aid in conservation and protection. We are all of us committed to the goals of the Oak Ridges Moraine Conservation Plan (ORMCP) which has been described as a model of a provincial plan with no precetlent antl implemented by our municipalities through Official Plans and zoning by-laws. One weakness we all face in this implementation is that cumulative impacts that local planning decisions have on the ecological functions of the moraine. ORIGINALTO: � j�j COPY 70: -� � CORR. FI�E KE APR. ACTION � m0—t � O ✓� -r q r- � f C.T l C� �). 2 65 Each application, each change on the moraine, adds up - arid it is this incremental change and destruction of ecological functions that slips beyond the reach of any one municipality to ensure that sound planning decisions protect these inter-related services. Organizations like the Oak Ridges Moraine Land Trust provide municipalities with another option for helping to protect the ecological functions that contribute to our healthy sustainable communities. "The Township of King strives to be a prosperous, vibrant community proud of its rural traditions and committed to balancing the benefits of accessibility with the values of its natural environment. " This is King Township's vision, and I'm certain you will hear echoes of your own. Economic, Social-Cultural and Financial values are not independent of Environmental goals they are intricately linked. Development press�res differ from ene end of the moraine to the other — as �ve face the loss or impairment of natural features I harbour some envy for our central and eastern moraine municipal partners at being able to engage in protection, now before iYs too late, because protection is less costly than remediation. I respectfully request that each of your municipalities give tlue consideration to contribute to the $ 1 Million Stewardship Fund of the Oak Ridges Moraine Land Trust — we all benefit and the work is not done yet.

CORP0227-07/01 revised Report CS 15-11 Subject: Liverpool Road - Road Works, Storm Sewer, Streetlighting, Boulevard Reconstruction and � Wharf Street Sidewalk Installation April 18, 2011 �� Page 5 Sustainability Implications: This project will allow for improving the roadway geometrics and vehicular flow in this area and complete the implementation of the Great Lakes Nautical Theme for Liverpool Road. The new road works will reduce maintenance costs for the next several years. This project will also allow for new sidewalk construction and completion of the Waterfront Trail segment on Liverpool Road promoting pedestrian mobility. Background: As part of the 2007 Roads Capital Budget and the 2007 External Subdivision Budget, Liverpool Road Reconstruction was approved as a construction project. This section of Liverpool Road falls within the City's Planning & Development Department's Policy with the Great Lakes Nautical Theme Development Guidelines. There are special landscape and streetscape requirements that govern the way the City infrastructure is to look in this area. Part of this initiative was to place the overhead hydro wires underground. This has been completed from the Millennium Square to Annland Street, with the last section from Wharf Street to Annland Street being recently completed. Engineering Services staff have recently met with Veridian Connections to determine the feasibility of continuing this practice north to Krosno Boulevard. Veridian Connections provided the City with the details of complexities and costs associated with continuing this practice. After discussions, it was determined that it would not be financially feasible to continue any further, as the estimated cost would be prohibitive. The redevelopment of the Wharf Street Marina in recent years has generated the need to provide a safe pedestrian connection to Liverpool Road. This matter was addressed in a Report to the Planning & Development Committee PD 04-08 and Council Resolution #132/08 approved the installation of a sidewalk on the north side of Wharf Street. Tender No. T-1-2011 was issued on Friday, March 11, 2011 and closed Wednesday, March 30, 2011 with ten bidders responding. The low bid of $378,832:50 (HST included) submitted by Concord Paving Inc. is recommended for approval. A reference check for Concord Paving Inc. has been completed and is deemed acceptable by the Supervisor, Engineering & Capital Works. The Health & Safety Policy, a current WSIB Workplace Injury Summary Report and Certificate of Clearance issued by Workplace Safety & Insurance Board as submitted by Concord Paving Inc. have been reviewed by the Coordinator, Health & Safety and deemed acceptable. The Certificate of Insurance has been reviewed by the Manager, Finance & Taxation and is deemed acceptable. In conjunction with staff's review of the contractor's previous work experience, check of references submitted and the bonding available on this project, the tender is deemed acceptable, pending receipt of proof of Confined Space Awareness Training and a list of employees trained in confined space.

We have recently received notice from the Owner advising that to date, the units on Block 18, Plan 40M-1827 have yet to be constructed or transferred into separate ownership and therefore another Part Lot Control By-law is required, as By-law 6791/07 expired on September 17, 2009. Attached is a location map and a draft by-law, enactment of which will exempt Block 18, Plan 40M-1827 from the part lot control provisions of the P/anning Act thus allowing 12 units to be created on parcels of tied lands (`potls') and the transfer of those potls into separate ownership.

Council requested that staff provide an update on the status of York Region Community Enhancements related to the Southeast Collector Sewer and the Duffin Creek Water Pollution Control Plant Expansion. This memorandum provides the requested update. In accordance with the Ontario Superior Court of Justice, Minutes of Settlement between the City of Pickering and York Region, related to the application that was before the Ontario Superior Court of Justice (Court File No. 63891/09), staff have been working with York and Durham Region staff and their consultants to further the discussions towards completion of a community enhancements plan. The following clauses were incorporated into the Minutes of Settlement executed July 19, 2010. 1. York.Region (a) reaffirms a commitment to undertake or fund mutually agreed upon community enhancements with a total estimated value, including contingencies, of up to $10.32 million, based on approximately $8.0 million of enhancements related to the Southeast Collector Trunk Sewer project (the "SEC") and $2.32 million related to the Duffin Creek WPCP Stage 3 expansion project, over the period 2011 to 2015, subject to delays that are beyond York Region's control (e.g., labour disruptions, shortages of material, receipt of necessary approvals, etc.); 125 2. The City of Pickering will: (c) convey, at no additional cost to York or Durham Region, any and all right-of-ways, road allowances and easements within the Duffin Creek WRCP site; The Minutes of Settlement were finalized (signed by both parties) by the end of July, 2010. In September, 2010, a City staff enhancement team was assembled in order to advance discussions on potential enhancement projects related to the SEC. Four meetings with staff from Durham Region, York Region and their consultant have occurred since October, 2010. A summary table is being prepared to identify, describe, categorize and prioritize enhancements that will be recommended for final approval. Currently, work is underway to complete feasibility assessments and cost estimates for individual projects. There is still a requirement to determine who will deliver the projects, timing of the projects and details with respect to the design and approvals process. York Region has advised that updated information will be provided in early April. City staff are working towards having a report on the community enhancement plan available for Council in June, 2011 to coincide with commencement of the SEC construction contract. Enhancements related to the Duffin Creek Water Pollution Control Plant expansion that have not been completed to date consist of implementing the City's Waterfront Trail Concept Plan and renovations to the Heritage Building (Linton Farmhouse) that was relocated from the expansion site to the east side of Montgomery Park Road. Discussions resumed in November, 2010 to review the City's WaterFront Trail Concept Plan, discuss timing for construction of the works and to discuss a management agreement format for the Waterfront Trail on Region of York/Durham lands. York has since commissioned a consulting firm that will advance the drawings from a concept plan to detailed construction drawings and specifications for City and TRCA approval. Further discussions and decisions are required on the ownership or lease arrangements and suggested uses for the Linton Farmhouse building. York has agreed to provide a public washroom addition, and City staff have recognized potential for limited use of the main building without the requirement of major structural or aesthetic interior renovations. In anticipation of moving forward with enhancement projects this year, staff have recommended $1.5M in the Roads Capital Budget for infrastructure projects and $1.5M in the Parks Capital Budget for recreation projects, to be funded by York Region. These funds could be used for any of the enhancement projects related to SEC or Duffin Creek WPCP that are to be undertaken and delivered through City of Pickering procurement. At its meeting of March 21, 2011, Council also questioned an element of By-law 7117/11 that proposed the conveyance of.land to TRCA, namely part of Lakeview Drive, being Part 7, 40R- 24977 and Conmara Avenue, Plan 406. Further �information on this matter is forthcoming. April 4, 2011 Update on York Region Community Enhancements, and Road Closures/Conveyances Related to Duffin Creek Water Pollution Control Plant Expansion Page 2 126 As such, staff have prepared a replacement by-law to stop-up and close, declare as surplus and authorize conveyance only those lands required by the Region of York and the Region of Durham, as set out in the Minutes of Settlement related to the Duffin Creek Water Pollution Control Plant. Lands originally recommended by staff to be conveyed to TRCA are included in the replacement by-law for the purpose of stopping them up, closing them and declaring them surplus only. The conveyance of the lands remains tabled as per Resolution #60/11. Attached is a map identifying the lands referenced in this memorandum, and a draft by-law for the consideration of City Council at its meeting scheduled for April 18, 2011. I trust this information is adequate in order for the City of Pickering to continue to fulfil and abide by the requirements of the Minutes of Settlement. � RH: ds Attachments April 4, 2011 Update on York Region Community Enhancements, and Road Closures/Conveyances Related to Duffin Creek Water Pollution Control Plant Expansion Page 3 127 128 The Corporation of the City of Pickering . � �` �. . . / t ti ,� . q` ,., � ..p � Being a by-law to stop-up and close various road allowances as public highways, declare lands surplus to the Corporation and authorize conveyances to The Regional Municipality of York and The Regional Municipality of Durham in support of the Duffin Creek Water Pollution Control Plant expansion.
