Inc. has submitted applications for Zoning By-law Amendment and Draft Plan of Subdivision proposing a residential subdivision consisting of 51 lots for detached dwellings, a block containing the Nesbit-Newman heritage house, and an open space block. The plan also proposes the extension of Cliffview Road northward to intersect with Park Crescent (see Submitted Plan, Attachment#2). The applicant is also requesting approval from Council to delete the extension of Surf Avenue to Cliffview Road and Downland Drive to Park Crescent from the West Shore Neighbourhood Plan. 31 Report PLN 21-13 October 7, 2013 Subject: Orchard Ridge (Pickering) G.P. Inc. (SP-2013-01, A 2/13) Page 2 The proposed development demonstrates appropriate infill development within the West Shore Neighbourhood that maintains the character of the established stable neighbourhood and implements the policies of the Official Plari. Proposed lot frontages and lot sizes are appropriate (with lot frontages proposed for the development ranging between 14.3 metres to 16.75 metres). The road pattern for the proposed development extends Cliffview Road northward to intersect with Park Crescent. This is the preferred road connection as it meets the City's road and lot grading requirements, effectively deals with stormwater issues, and protects the existing Nesbit-Newman Heritage house. The increase in traffic generated by this development will have a minimal impact on the surrounding community. Through the development of this site,Park Crescent and Cliffview Road will be urbanized so as to provide curbs and gutters, sidewalks along Cliffview Road, and appropriate stormwater management for the site. The lot depths are very deep to preserve and protect many of the existing trees on site. In addition, the applicant has agreed to provide a compensation plan for plantings at an off-site location on public lands. A pedestrian connection is also being proposed through the open space block in the northwest corner of the site. A holding provision will be placed on Lot 9 (directly beside the pedestrian connection) to ensure that the proposed pedestrian connection is designed to meet all safety and accessibility standards. Since the Statutory Public Meeting, held in April 2013, the Nesbit-Newman heritage house has been designated under Part IV of the Ontario Heritage Act. The designation of the property provides for a heritage lot which exceeds the size required by the Heritage Pickering Advisory Committee. Accordingly, staff recommend that Zoning By-law Amendment Application A 2/13 be approved, and that City Council endorse Draft Plan of Subdivision SP-2013-01, the related conditions of approval, and a housekeeping Informational Revision to the Official Plan to revise the proposed road pattern for the Neighbourhood (see Appendices 1, II and III). Financial Implications: No direct costs to the City are anticipated as a result of the recommendations of this report. 1. Background 1.1 Property Description The subject property is located on the west side of Park Crescent, north of Cliffview Road and south of Sandcastle Court (see Location Map, Attachment#1). The subject lands are approximately 4.9 hectares in area, with approximately 89 metres of frontage along Park Crescent. There is an existing hedgerow.of mature trees along the west property line of the site and clusters of trees surrounding the proposed block for the heritage home and along Park Crescent. 32 Report PLN 21-13 October 7 2013 Subject: Orchard Ridge (Pickering) G.P. Inc. (SP-2013-01, A 2/13) Page 3 Low density residential development consisting of detached dwellings and a park surrounds the subject lands. There is a substantial downward change in grade on the subject property from the west to the east towards Park Crescent, with a small area in the southwest corner sloping towards the existing residential properties on Cliffview Road. 1.2 Applicant's Proposal The applicant has submitted applications for approval of a Draft Plan of Subdivision and an amendment to the Zoning By-law to facilitate a residential development consisting of 51 lots for detached dwellings, a 0.26 hectare heritage block containing the Nesbit-Newman heritage house, and a 0.56 hectare open space block to be combined with Lookout Point Park (see Submitted Plan, Attachment#2). The applicant proposes to extend Cliffview Road to the north in order to intersect with Park Crescent. A pedestrian walkway is proposed through the open space block to provide a connection from Downland Drive to the Cliffview Road extension. 2. Comments Received 2.1 Public comments from the November 27, 2012 Open House Meeting On November 27, 2012, prior to the submission of the applications, the applicant held an Open House meeting to present area residents with future development plans for the subject property. The applicant presented three potential plans: • extending Cliffview Road north and east to connect with Park Crescent (the design subsequently proposed in the development applications) • extending Cliffview Road north about half way through the property, ending in a cul-de-sac; extending Downland Drive east and south to also end in a cul-de-sac, and connecting the cul-de-sacs with a walkway • extending Cliffview Road north and west to connect with Downland Drive Approximately ninety residents attended the Open House meeting. Some of the key concerns identified at this meeting included traffic, tree preservation, compatibility with the existing neighbourhood, and protection of the Nesbit-Newman heritage house. 2.2 Public comments from the April 8, 2013 Statutory Public Meeting and in written submission At the April 8, 2013 Statutory Public Meeting, approximately eighty residents attended the meeting and fifteen area residents voiced concerns with respect to the draft plan of subdivision and rezoning applications. The majority of their concerns related to whether the proposal was in keeping with the existing character of the established neighbourhood. 33 Report PLN 21-13 October 7, 2013 Subject: Orchard Ridge (Pickering) G.P. Inc. (SP-2013-01, A 2/13) Page 4 Specifically, the concerns identified are as follows: • ensuring protection/preservation of existing trees on the site • compatibility of the proposed lot frontage, lot area, setbacks and building height in relation to the existing neighbourhood • increased traffic impacts from the proposed development on surrounding streets • proposed street layout and how it will affect pedestrian and vehicular connections to the surrounding neighbourhood and the trail system along Lake Ontario • stormwater management for the site, as it relates to the existing problems with overland stormwater runoff causing flooding issues on properties along the east side of Park Crescent • ensuring that the proposed pedestrian connection will be accessible, maintained throughout the winter, and adequately lit; and • ensuring that the Nesbit-Newman property is designated under Part IV of the Ontario Heritage Act 2.3 Public comments from the September 17, 2013 Open House The City Development Department convened an Open House ahead of the Planning & Development Committee meeting (scheduled for October 7, 2013)to provide an opportunity for area residents to discuss the staff recommendations. Approximately forty residents attended the presentation given by staff. Some residents continue to have strong concerns with certain aspects of the proposal and do not agree with the staff recommendation. The concerns include the following: • the proposed street layout; in particular, that the Cliffview Road extension should connect to Downiand Drive rather than to Park Crescent • the impact of traffic anticipated to be generated by the development and a concern that'the submitted Traffic Operations Brief underestimates the amount of traffic • the urbanization of Park Crescent and Cliffview Road and the inclusion of sidewalks along Cliffview Road; and • lot frontages and other development standards being proposed are not consistent with the character of the surrounding neighbourhood 2.4 City Departments & Agency Comments Region of Durham • the subject lands are within the "Living Area" designation in the Durham Region Official Plan • the Region of Durham Planning Department has advised that this proposal conforms with the policies of the Regional Official Plan • the Phase I Environmental Site Assessment report, dated January 2013, indicates that there are no potential site contamination concerns on the subject lands 34 Report PLN 21-13 October 7, 2013 Subject: Orchard Ridge (Pickering) G.P.

Planning Analysis 3.1 The proposal conforms to the density provisions and infill policies of the Pickering Official Plan The Pickering Official Plan designates the subject property as "Urban Residential — Low Density Areas" within the West Shore Neighbourhood. Lands within this designation are intended primarily for housing at a net residential density of up to and including 30 units per net hectare. The applicant's proposal is to create a total of 51 lots for detached dwellings and a block to preserve the Nesbitt-Newman heritage house, on a net residential area of 3.72 hectares. This results in a density of approximately 14 units per net hectare. The density of this proposal is appropriate for an infill development in the West Shore Neighbourhood. Section 6.5 of the Official Pan states that City Council shall encourage infill development of vacant or underutilized blocks of land and the provision of compact housing form, having regard to housing type, architectural design and cost-effective development standards. The proposed development will result in an appropriate land use and efficient subdivision design within the built-up part of the City. 3.2 Proposed building height, yard setbacks and lot coverage will ensure the character of the established residential neighbourhood will be protected The Official Plan recognizes that neighbourhoods are the backbone of the urban system within Pickering and that these neighbourhoods range in size, shape and character. Section 2.9 of the Official Plan states that the City shall endeavour to maintain the different identities and characters of its neighbourhoods as they evolve over time. The subject property is located within an established residential neighbourhood consisting of detached dwellings on large lots with wide frontages. The Official Plan Section 3.9 (c) recognizes that in establishing performance standards, restrictions and provisions for Urban Residential Areas, particular regard shall be had to protecting and enhancing the character of established neighbourhoods, considering such matters as building height, yard setback, lot coverage, access to sunlight, parking provisions and traffic implications. 36 Report PLN 21-13 October 7, 2013 Subject: Orchard Ridge (Pickering) G.P. Inc. (SP-2013-01, A 2/13) Page 7 A variety of front yard depths and building heights currently exist along Park Crescent. The built form along Park Crescent varies, from single storey "cottage" style dwellings to new two, and two and a half storey detached dwellings. The built form along Broadgreen Street is traditional two storey detached dwellings. Properties to the south and east of the subject property along Park Crescent are currently zoned "R4", which requires a minimum lot frontage of 15.0 metres. The average lot frontage for the existing lots along Park Crescent is approximately 16.8 metres. Properties to the west of the subject property along Broadgreen Street are currently zoned "S' and "S1", which require a minimum lot frontage of 15.0 metres. The applicant is proposing to rezone the subject lands from "R3" to a site specific "R4" zone to permit 51 lots with minimum lot frontages ranging between 14.0 metres and 16.0 metres with site specific performance standards. Appropriate zoning standards are also requested for the block with the heritage home, and the open space block. The Official Plan Section 9.1 states that the City shall promote development at various scales which, through their adherence to principles of good, high quality community design, will produce built and natural environments in Pickering that offer enjoyment, comfort and safety for all users, and evoke a desirable image and sense of place for the City. The proposed development, when built with the recommended performance standards, as set out in the draft zoning by-law contained in Appendix II to this report, and summarized in Appendix IV, addresses such sensitive issues as building height, yard setbacks and lot coverage. The proposed performance standards adhere to the principles of good, high quality community design. In addition, these standards will facilitate dwelling designs that will maintain the existing character of the surrounding community, while increasing the intensity of land uses, as set out in the Official Plan Section 3.2. Residents commented that they would like assurance that the architectural design of the dwellings would be attractive and of a high quality. As a condition of draft plan approval, the applicant will be required to engage the services of a control architect who will prepare a siting and architectural design statement to the City's satisfaction, approve all models offered for sale and certify that all building permit plans comply with the City's approved architectural design statement. 3.3 Prior to the submission of the applications, two proposed road connections shown on the Neighbourhood Plan for West Shore were eliminated as options The West Shore Neighbourhood Map identifies several proposed new road connections including the westerly extension of Surf Avenue to connect with the northerly extension of Cliffview Road, and the easterly extension of Downland Drive to connect with Park Crescent (see Attachment#3, West Shore Neighbourhood Map). If Surf Avenue were extended to Cliffview Road, it would require the demolition of the Nesbit-Newman heritage home. The extension of Surf Avenue was considered inappropriate in light of Council's and the landowners desire to protect the heritage home. 37 Report PLN 21-13 October 7, 2013 Subject: Orchard Ridge (Pickering) G.P. Inc. (SP-2013-01, A 2/13) Page 8 A Downland Drive to Park Crescent connection was determined to be technically unacceptable in light of the steep grade that would result. The grade would exceed current City road grade (including sidewalk) standards. Further, the connection would increase stormwater flows onto Park Crescent, increasing the potential for flooding of properties on the east side of Park Crescent. The design would not meet the City's overland stormwater flow requirements. From an engineering perspective, this proposed connection was not acceptable. Proposed road connections to be explored by the applicant were therefore limited to the northerly extension of Cliffview Road to either Downland Drive or Park Crescent. 3.4 City staff have concluded that the proposed road connection between Cliffview Road and Park Crescent is the only viable option City Development staff preferred a "T" street pattern, with Downland extending to Park, and Cliffview extending to Downland. This pattern would provide optimum neighbourhood connectivity. With the elimination of the Downland to Park connection, the next preferred option was Cliffview Road to Downland Drive. This road alignment provided the next best level of enhanced connectivity within the Neighbourhood. This connection was also preferred by some residents who have consistently voiced concerns regarding the road pattern within the proposed draft plan of subdivision. Further review of the feasibility of a Cliffview to Downland connection was undertaken by staff and the applicant. The applicant prepared cross-sections showing the grading that would be required, and the resultant implications on lot grading and usability, and stormwater flows. Based on staffs review of the cross-section drawings, significant fill would be required at the north and west/central part of the site to raise the grade of the road and the adjacent new lots to match the grade of existing Downland Drive. As a result, the significant grade change required to match the lower Park Crescent elevation on the east side of the site had to be accomplished in the rear of the private properties. Most lots, despite being quite deep, would have only about 6.0 metres of useable rear yard, in many cases at the bottom of a steep slope in the order to 1:3. The steep slopes also work against appropriate stormwater management, and may be subject to potential erosion and maintenance problems over time. By contrast, the road extension of Cliffview to Park allows a significant amount of the change in grade to be achieved at the west property limit, in the rear of the lots on the west side of the Cliffview extension. Substantially less rear yard grade changes are required on the lots between Cliffview Road and Park Crescent, when Cliffview is designed to connect to Park. 38 Report PLN 21-13 October 7, 2013 Subject: Orchard Ridge (Pickering) G.P. Inc. (SP-2013-01, A 2/13) Page 9 Staff recommends the proposed alignment as it meets the City's engineering standards, as well as provides for the best management of stormwater overland flow, and maximizes usable lot area for all proposed lots. Although there will be no vehicular connection to the west, the proposed walkway connection to Lookout Point Park will enable pedestrian connections to the west. 3.5 While traffic volumes will increase in the Woodlands Neighbourhood with this development, the additional traffic will have minimal impact on local roads A number of area residents have continued to express concerns with respect to the impact of increased traffic levels that will result from the proposed development. Streets of particular concern included Park Crescent, Hillview Crescent and Oklahoma Drive. In response to the traffic concerns, the applicant submitted a Traffic Operations Brief prepared by GHD, dated June 4, 2013 (a copy of which is available for viewing at the City Development Department). The Brief examines the capacity, safety and efficiency of the proposed road network and resulting changes anticipated on the surrounding road network as a result of the proposed development. City staff approved the terms of reference for this traffic Brief prior to it being conducted. As a starting point, the study established the existing travel patterns, turning movements, and volumes on the adjoining roads and the intersections of: • Park Crescent and West Shore Boulevard • West Shore Boulevard and Oklahoma Drive • Hillview Crescent and Oklahoma Drive • Eyer Drive and Oklahoma Drive • Downland Drive and Whites Road • Whites Road and Oklahoma Drive/Granite Court Data was collected through counts undertaken on a weekday in May 2013, between the hours of 7:00 am to 9:00 am, and 3:00 pm to 6:00 pm. These times were selected to ensure that the traffic counts captured the peak of adjacent street traffic, as well as the activity at Fairport Beach Public School. From this data, it was determined that the weekday "morning peak hour" occurred between 7:15 am to 8:15 am, and the weekday "afternoon peak hour" occurred between 4:00 pm to 5 pm. The purpose in determining the peak hour is to set the base level at its highest. Then, the existing traffic volumes are combined with the estimated number of trips from the development site to identify the total weekday morning and weekday afternoon volumes. The conditions at the peak morning and afternoon hours are then modeled to assess the incremental impacts over the existing conditions. The assessment at peak hour gives the "worst case" scenario. If the worst case scenario meets acceptable service levels, the other hours will also met acceptable levels. 39 Report PLN 21-13 October 7, 2013 Subject: Orchard Ridge (Pickering) G.P. Inc. (SP-2013-01, A 2/13) Page 10 Based on existing traffic patterns, the Brief indicated that approximately 45% of trips are destined to/from the east (toward the Pickering Go Station) and 55% destined to/from the west (toward the Whites Road/Highway 401 interchange). The Brief identified that the new development would generate a total of 38 trips in the morning peak hour, and 52 in the afternoon peak hour. Based on Transportation industry recommended practice, a proposed development that will generate less than 100 new trips will have minimal effect on area roadways. The conclusions of the Brief confirmed that the proposed road pattern and the development of the 51 new lots would have minimal traffic impacts on the existing streets and intersections within the neighbourhood. All intersections would still operate at an acceptable level of service, and volumes are well below the road capacities. The Brief was reviewed by City's Coordinator, Transportation Engineering and he concurred with the method, assumptions and conclusions. 3.6 Nesbit-Newman Heritage House has been designated under Part IV of the Ontario Heritage Act On April 16, 2012, Council authorized the City Clerk to begin procedures to have the Nesbit-Newman heritage house designated under Part IV of the Ontario Heritage Act. Council's resolution stated that any lot established through a future • development process to accommodate the Nesbit-Newman heritage house had to be configured so as to distinguish the home within the neighbourhood and provide a reasonable property boundary to retain the heritage context, being approximately 135 feet (41.1 metres) in frontage on Park Crescent and 140 feet (42.6 metres) in depth. On July 8, 2013, Council passed By-law 7290/13 designating the Nesbit-Newman House under Part IV of the Ontario Heritage Act. The registered plan (40R-27959) submitted with the designation provides for a heritage lot with 41.3 metres of frontage along Park Crescent and 59.2 metres in depth, which exceeds the size of the heritage lot as approved by Council. 3.7 The subdivision design has very deep lots to enable a significant amount of tree protection, and restrictive covenants will be placed on the westerly lots to preserve the existing hedgerow of mature Black Walnut trees Residents expressed concerns with the loss of trees from the subject property. The proposed lot depths within the draft plan of subdivision will enable tree preservation. The lot depths along Park Crescent range from 44 metres to 68 metres to allow for the siting of dwellings to minimize the impact on existing trees along this road. The lot depths along the west side of the Cliffview Road extension range from 40 metres to 48 metres. These lot depths are provided to deal with changes on grade along this side of the property and to preserve and protect the existing hedgerow of mature Black Walnut trees along this property line. The majority of the native trees within the Open Space Block (Block 53), connected to Lookout Point Park, will be preserved. A copy of the subdivision plan showing the trees proposed to be preserved is provided as Attachment#4. 40 Report PLN 21-13 October 7, 2013 Subject: Orchard Ridge (Pickering) G.P. Inc. (SP-2013-01, A 2/13) Page 11 Section 10.12 of the Official Plan recognizes the importance that forests and hedgerows have in linking natural areas and providing a diversity of habitats. The . Plan encourages the protection of these areas from development and encourages stewardship practices where these areas are held in private ownership. Further, Section 10.3 of the Official Plan encourages protection of natural features through education, conservation easements and/or public acquisition where warranted. The applicant has agreed, as a condition of subdivision approval, to register restrictive covenants on title for the lots which back onto existing lots along Broadgreen Street. The restrictive covenants will ensure the existing trees, which will be on private property, cannot be removed by future owners. Along Park Crescent, the proposed driveways and service connections are located to minimize the loss of trees along the street line and retain portions of the stone wall associated with the Nesbit-Newman heritage house. The urbanization of Park Crescent may impact additional trees. Techniques to preserve as many trees as possible along the streetline will be required through the detailed engineering and construction management plans. 3.8 A compensation plan for loss of urban forest has been agreed to by the owner The Toronto and Region Conservation Authority (TRCA) has recognized that the removal of some parts of the wooded vegetation currently on the site will result in a loss of urban forest cover and the ecological function associated with the wooded vegetation as habitat. Due to the proposed loss of habitat, a compensation plan has been agreed to by the owner to provide a financial contribution for off-site tree planting on publicly-owned lands. 3.9 Park Crescent and Cliffview Road will be urbanized Residents have voiced concerns regarding the urbanization of Park Crescent related to the installation of sidewalks, curbs and gutters. The urbanization of Park Crescent is a cost sharing project between the applicant and the City to bring municipal services, including curbs and gutters, from the northern end of the subject lands to the bottom of Park Crescent and Cliffview Road. The construction of the Cliffview extension through the subject property will have a sidewalk on the west side. The urbanization of the existing Cliffview Road will also include a sidewalk along the west side of the road. A suggestion made at the September 17, 2013 Open House to connect the existing sidewalks along Sandcastle Court to the proposed sidewalk on the Cliffview Road extension. The sidewalk would be along the west side of Park Crescent, in front of the lots being developed as part of the proposed plan. After discussion, City staff from the Engineering & Public Works Department have agreed to this sidewalk connection. No other sidewalks are anticipated to be installed along Park Crescent. 41 Report PLN 21-13 October 7, 2013 Subject: Orchard Ridge (Pickering) G,P. Inc. (SP-2013-01, A 2/13) Page 12 At the Open House, a question was asked about whether hydro lines on Park Crescent would be buried as part of the urbanization. Staff from the Engineering & Public Works Department advise that this would be a significant cost and was not included within the budget for the urbanization. The extension of Cliffview Road will have buried hydro. The stone entry pillars to the Nesbit-Newman property and the stone wall along Park Crescent are important heritage features to be retained to the extent possible. This will be reviewed through the detailed design, engineering and construction management plans for the development. 3.10 Stormwater management will be dealt with through the development of the site and through the urbanization of Park Crescent and Cliffview Road Stormwater management was raised as a concern for residents along Park Crescent. The current drainage follows the slope of the property from west to east across the site. This flow is directed to an existing roadside ditch on the west side of Park Crescent. A small portion of the southwest corner of the site drains south towards the existing ditches on Cliffview Road. The proposed stormwater management for the site will convey a portion of the runoff to a future storm sewer on Park Crescent and a future storm sewer on Cliffview Road, which will be installed with the urbanization of this road network. The remainder of the site area will drain via overland flow across the lots fronting Park Crescent and on to the Park Crescent road allowance. Proposed lots fronting onto Park Crescent will be serviced with direct connections to the future storm sewer along the road. Storm services will be located within the driveways in order to minimize the impact on existing trees. The development will also provide rear yard catchbasins for the lots fronting the Cliffview Road extension to minimize the amount of flow to the proposed road allowance and to the lots fronting Park Crescent. Staff from the Engineering & Public Works Department have reviewed the stormwater management plan and are supportive of the approach proposed. 3.11 The pedestrian connection from Lookout Point Park to Cliffview Road extension will be further reviewed to ensure accessibility standards are met Concerns have been expressed regarding the compliance with accessibility standards and whether there would be winter maintenance of the proposed pedestrian connection from Lookout Point Park to the Cliffview Road extension. Engineering & Public Works staff have requested that a Hold provision be placed on Lot 9 (directly beside the pedestrian connection) until the details of the pedestrian connection have been reviewed and approved by the City. City staff will review the slope of the pedestrian connection to ensure safety and accessibility standards are being met, confirm lighting requirements, and address winter maintenance. 42 Report PLN 21-13 October 7, 2013 Subject: Orchard Ridge (Pickering) G.P. Inc. (SP-2013-01, A 2/13) Page 13 3.12 The proposal achieves a Level 1 sustainability rating Staff have reviewed the applications against the City's Draft Sustainable Development Guidelines and rated the draft plan as achieving a Level 1 score. The proposed draft plan incorporated many of the elements set out in the Guidelines including: • infill development on a vacant site • committing to the use of materials, such as permeable pavers, to achieve a 25% increase in permeability relative to conventional methods • committing to use native plant material for at least 75% of public landscaped area • incorporating a designated heritage building into the project • integrating the proposed development with the existing natural features in order to protect and preserve as many existing trees as possible • providing a voluntary compensation plan for the loss of existing trees Additional opportunities for element of sustainable development will be pursued at the building permit stage. 3.13 Technical Matters to be addressed as conditions of subdivision approval To ensure appropriate development, City, Region and agency requirements will be imposed as conditions of approval for the subdivision application. These conditions will address matters such as, but not limited to, on-site grading, landscaping, tree preservation, fencing, stormwater management and construction management. The conditions of approval set out in Appendix I to this report address these (and other) matters and it is recommended that Council endorse these conditions. 3.14 Zoning By-law to be finalized and forwarded to Council for enactment Staff supports the rezoning application and recommends that the site specific implementing by-law containing the standards attached as Appendix IV, and generally in the form attached as Appendix II to this report, be brought before Council for enactment following approval of the draft plan of subdivision. The intent of the zoning by-law is to implement specific performance standards including minimum lot frontage, lot area, yard setbacks, lot coverage and maximum building height to ensure that the proposal complements existing built pattern such as form, height and position relative to the street and to facilitate dwelling designs that would maintain the character of the existing residential neighbourhood. 43 Report PLN 21-13 October 7, 2013 Subject: Orchard Ridge (Pickering) G.P.

Location: The revision affects lands known as Part of Lot 11, Lots 12 & 13 Plan 175, Part 1, Plan 40R-11659. The subject lands are approximately 4.9 hectares in area and are located on the west side of Park Crescent, north of Cliffview Road and south of Sandcastle Court. Basis: Through the review of Draft Plan of Subdivision SP-2013-01 and Zoning By-law Amendment A 2/13, implementation of some of the proposed.road connections indicated on Map 12 of the Official Plan, proved to be undesirable or inappropriate. The deletion of Surf Avenue to Cliffview Road is appropriate to ensure the retention of the designated Nesbit-Newman heritage property. The deletion of the extension of Downland Drive to the extension of Cliffview Road is appropriate as options to connect Downland Drive to either Park Crescent or Cliffview Avenue resulted in road grades that exceeded City standards, inappropriate lot grading, reduced lot usability, and difficulty controlling stormwater runoff. However, a proposed road connection from the extension of Cliffview Road to Park Crescent can be achieved. Thus, the deletion of the proposed road connections from Surf Avenue to the extension of Cliffview Road and the extension of Down land Drive to the extension of Cliffview Road are appropriate, and maintain the intent of the Pickering Official Plan. Approval of Informational Revision 19 will assist in keeping the Pickering Official Plan up-to-date. Actual The City of Pickering Official Plan is hereby revised as shown on the Revision: Exhibit A attached, and listed as below: 1. On Map 12, Neighbourhood 2: West Shore: • Delete the "New Road Connections (Proposed)" extending Downland Drive to Park Crescent, and Surf Avenue to Cliffview Road Implementation: A copy of how Map 12, Neighbourhood 2: West Shore would appear after the approval on Informational Revision 19 is provided as Exhibit B. 66 Exhibit A MAP 12 NEIGHBOURHOOD 2: WEST SHORE 1.4E1 L'u= °==Pi'%1=i;tTtii F i 1 ._� �� i7`� ® � IIIIIIIII!IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIh���������� i�7o-�i=���`' <<t�� 11111111110 1111111112:1211111M1111111!!!!!/1111111 I♦�IIIIIOIIIIIIIIII 11111111111∎0111 111111 3• IY A zt III inn mum!

That Report CR 11-13 regarding the "City of Pickering Five Year Accessibility Plan (2012-2016); Report on 2012 Achievements" be received for information. Executive Summary: The City of Pickering's 5 Year Accessibility Plan (2012-2016) is the City's first multi-year plan developed to meet the requirements of the Ontarians with Disabilities Act, 2001, s.o. 2001, c.32 (the "ODA") and the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act, 2005, s.o. 2005, c.11 (the "AODA"). The Plan considers all departments of the City of Pickering as well as the Pickering Public Library. The 5 Year Accessibility Plan was developed by a staff team representing all City departments. The Plan included consultation with the City's Accessibility Advisory Committee, and was approved at a Meeting of Council dated April 16, 2012 (Council Resolution #60/12). Each Standard under the AODA includes a schedule of deadlines that the municipality must meet. This report provides Council with an update on 2012 achievements related to the 5 Year Accessibility Plan (2012-2016) and the City's status in relation to those compliance deadlines. The City of Pickering has met the requirements of the Provincial Accessibility Standards and, in many areas, has exceeded them. The attached report entitled "5 Year Accessibility Plan (2012-2016): Report on 2012 Achievements" provides a more detailed summary. Financial Implications: In 2012, approximately $300,000 committed in the approved 2012 Current and Capital Budgets was utilized to meet the 2012 requirements of the 2012-2016 Accessibility Plan. These expenses primarily consist of the various facility upgrades that were completed in 2012. Discussion: The ODA received Royal Assent on December 14, 2001. The purpose of the ODA is to improve opportunities for people with disabilities and to provide for their involvement in the identification, removal, and prevention of barriers to 79 Report CR 11-13 October 7, 2013 Page 2 their full participation in the life of the Province. Under the Act, all municipalities are required to prepare annual accessibility plans, make the plans public and consult persons with disabilities. The AODA became law on June 13, 2005. Under this landmark legislation, the government of Ontario will develop mandatory accessibility standards that will identify, remove and prevent barriers for people with disabilities in key areas of daily living. The standards will apply to private and public sector organizations across Ontario. The province has been working with representatives from the disability community, as well as public and private sector organizations to develop accessibility standards. Standards were developed to achieve real results in stages. They set milestones that must be reached every five years or less, so that Ontario is accessible to people with disabilities by 2025. I he five standard areas under the AODA include: Customer Service; Information and Communications; Employment; Transportation; and Built Environment. In 2012, four (4) of the proposed Standards were in effect: • Customer Service Standards • Information & Communications Standards • Employment Standards • Transportation Standards Customer Service Standards — Highlights: The City of Pickering was in compliance with the Customer Service Standards by the deadline of January 1, 2010 and has completed the reporting requirements with the Accessibility Directorate of Ontario. Highlights include: • Accessible Customer Service Training provided to 120 city staff and is incorporated in the orientation of new staff Information & Communications Standards — Highlights: Under the Communications and Information Standards, the City met the mandated goals. Highlights include: • Launched new City of Pickering website that meets World Wide Web Consortium Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (VVCAG) 2.0, AA standards • Launched new Pickering Public Library website that meets World Wide Web Consortium Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0, Level A. • Conducted staff training to create accessible documents • Updated Writing Style Guide • Ensuring that public Emergency Procedure and Plan documents are available in alternate formats which meet the needs of persons with disabilities. Employment Standards — Highlights: The Employment Standards were met by the City of Pickering by the January 1, 2013 deadline. These standards include: 80 Report CR 11-13 October 7, 2013 Page 3 • Ensuring that policies and procedures are in place to provide individualized Workplace Emergency Response Plans for any employees with a disability. • Informing employees that such emergency plans and assistance are available to them when required because of a disability. Transportation Standard — Highlights: Because the City of Pickering does not operate a public transit system, the only requirements under the Transportation Standards were those relating to the licensing of taxicabs which have been met by the City of Pickering. These standards include: • Ensuring that owners and operators place vehicle registration and identification on the rear bumper. • Ensuring that owners and operators provide this information in alternate formats to persons with a disability, upon request. Built Environment Standard — Highlights: Although the proposed Built Environment Standards were not in effect in 2012, the City of Pickering continued to remove physical barriers throughout its facilities and has taken the proposed Built Environment Standards into consideration when planning new facilities and renovations to existing facilities. Highlights include: • Automatic doors installed at the Pickering Civic Complex, Pickering Recreation Complex Arena, East Shore Community Centre, Claremont Community Centre, Pickering Museum Village and Public Washrooms at Millennium Square. • Ramps installed at various sites at the Pickering Museum Village and East Shore Community Centre • Accessible water fountains at the Pickering Public Library. • First accessible raised bed in the Valley Plentiful Community Garden. It is important to note that Pickering's Accessibility Advisory Committee were very active in 2012 hosting an Accessibility Event, updating policies, and reaching out to residents and staff. The "5 Year Accessibility Plan (2012-2016): Report on 2012 Achievements" is attached and provides a more complete overview of the City's achievements in 2012.

The purpose of the Ontarians with Disabilities Act, 2001 (ODA) is to improve opportunities for people with disabilities and to provide for their involvement in the identification, removal, and prevention of barriers to their full participation in the life of the province. Under the Act, all municipalities are required to prepare annual accessibility plans, make the plans public and consult persons with disabilities. The Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act, 2005 (AODA) became law on June 13, 2005. Under this landmark legislation, the government of Ontario will develop mandatory accessibility standards that will identify, remove and prevent barriers for people with disabilities in key areas of daily living. The standards will apply to private and public sector organizations across Ontario. The province has been working with representatives from the disability community, as well as public and private sector organizations to develop accessibility standards. Standards were developed to achieve real results in stages. They set milestones that must be reached every five years or less, so that Ontario is accessible to people with disabilities by 2025. The five standard areas under the AODA include: Customer Service; Information and Communications; Employment; Transportation; and Built Environment. All of the standards have been developed and are now law. Customer Service Standard is the first standard developed to become a regulation. It came into force on January 1, 2008 and is now the law. Public sector organizations were required to comply by January 1, 2010. Private sector organizations will be required to comply by January 1, 2012. The standard addresses business practices and training needed to provide better customer service to people with disabilities. Integrated Accessibility Regulation (IAR) is an amalgamation of the Information and Communications Standard, Employment Standard, Transportation Standard and Built Environment Standard. The Integrated Accessibility Standards became law on June 3, 2011 with a variety of compliance dates ranging from 2011 to 2021. On January 1, 2013, the IAR was amended to include Design of Public Spaces (Accessibility Standards for the Built Environment). 1 83 Accessible Information and Communications Standards address the removal of barriers in access to information. The standards include information being provided in person, through print, a website or other means. Employment Accessibility Standards address paid employment practices relating to employee-employer relationships, which include recruitment, hiring, and retention policies and practices. Accessible Transportation Standards have been identified as crucial for people with disabilities. Access to transportation is needed for going to work or school, shopping and other aspects of daily life. This standard is to address aspects of accessible public transportation. Accessible Built Environment Standard addresses access into and within buildings and outdoor spaces and will build on Ontario's Building Code. Beginning in 2016, through the Design of Public Spaces Standards (Accessibility Standards for the Built Environment), public and private sector organizations will have to meet accessibility requirements when constructing and maintaining new or redeveloped elements of public spaces including: • Recreational trails and beach access routes • Outdoor eating areas for public use • Outdoor play spaces (such as playgrounds) • Exterior paths of travel (such as walkways across parks or between buildings) • Accessible on- and off-street parking • Service counters and waiting areas Enhancements to accessibility in buildings will happen at a later date through Ontario's Building Code, which governs new construction and renovations in buildings. The City of Pickering's 5 Year Accessibility Plan (2012-2016) was prepared by city staff, endorsed by the Accessibility Advisory Committee and Pickering Council, and is designed to position the municipality to meet ministry compliance for all standards. A core accessibility staff team made up of staff across all departments meet every two months to review the plan and to report on their progress on their respective action items. The following is a summary of 2012 Achievements of the City of Pickering 5 Year Accessibility Plan (2012-2016). 2 84 City of Pickering 5 Year Accessibility Plan (2012-2016): 2012 Achievements A. Customer Service Standard Staff Training Accessible Customer Service Training is included as part of Pickering's Employee Orientation Program. Sessions are held monthly for all new staff. In 2012, 120 staff received Accessible Customer Service provided by our Customer Care Centre staff. This includes all new hires, Camp staff and Operations summer/term employees. This also includes ensuring municipal volunteers are trained. Staff continue to promote and reinforce the importance of ensuring accessibility standards are met. Customer Care Centre staff are a key resource for other department staff should they have questions related to the standard, and the best service delivery methods. The Customer Care Centre is a single point of contact should anyone require any documentation or information in an alternate format. This is the simplest and most streamlined approach to centralize any requests, and to field enquiries. B.Accessible Information and Communications Standards City Hall Signage As part of the municipal service delivery review, a staff team was established to look at signage within City Hall, not only as it relates to service delivery, but also to incorporate accessibility standards. A proposal was submitted for 2013 budget consideration, which has subsequently been approved. This project is included in our 2013 work plan. Website The City of Pickering's new website, launched in May 2012, has been developed to meet WCAG 2.0 AA standards. This is the highest standard that can be attained, and legislatively, it is not required until 2021. Through the development of the website we wanted to ensure that we surpassed the minimum requirements. Some key features include enhanced search functions, BrowseAloud screen reading capability, text resizing, Google Translate, and a section dedicated to Accessibility which provides easy access to resources including: • Annual Accessibility Plan • Accessible facilities and services • Navigation Tips • Quick Links ✓ Accessibility Advisory Committee ✓ Accessible Customer Service Statement ✓ Community Resources ✓ Language Resources ✓ Program Cancellations & Service Disruptions 3 85 ✓ Seniors & Persons with Disabilities Snow Clearing Program ✓ Temporary Road Closures ✓ Accessibility Standards for Customer Service Policy • Comments and Feedback • Applicable By-laws Adobe Acrobat X Training - January 2012 Staff recognize that PDF documents available through the website may not be fully compliant, and staff members are working towards updating all new PDF documents to be accessible by December 2013. A dedicated staff team comprised of a cross- representation of department representatives received Adobe Acrobat X training, to learn how to create accessible PDF's. The intent is that these staff will be designated as train the trainers, and will be a key resource to staff within their departments. This team is working on creating resource documents and related procedures in order to support training requirements. i -.. , is ,„•' 1 _ , lial . VP- 1 S 44120 , a Creating Accessible Documents Training Staff partnered with Accessibility Experts in October 2012 and provided training space and support to their sessions. In turn, staff were able to offer training to key staff in Pickering's bid to support our train the trainer initiatives. Writing Workshop A Writing Workshop was held in September 2012 that included a section on accessibility requirements in which 20 staff participated. This was the third workshop held in the past two years. To date, 80 staff members have participated and another workshop is being planned for 2013. 4 86 Corporate Writing Guide The Corporate Writing Guide was updated to include additional resources related to Accessibility and Writing for the Public. The Guide includes the following sections: • Document Design (use of colour, font choice, spacing and alignment) • Layout (page design, use of tables) • Printing and binding documents • Electronic documents • Presentation materials • Alternate formats • Accessibility Communications Checklist Information & Communications Standard Overview Members of the Corporate Communication Team, along with selected department representatives, attended a training session in July 2012 providing an overview of the requirements of the Information & Communication Standards. Website Content Managers Website Content Managers received training in March 2012. In addition, Content Management System procedure has been developed to ensure that standards are maintained. Ongoing support and training will be provided to content managers. Municipal Matters — Employee Newsletter Staff have a regular feature in Pickering's employee newsletter to keep staff apprised of any updates and initiatives. In 2012, two issues of our newsletter were distributed to all staff and included features on accessibility initiatives within the municipality. Pickering Public Library The Pickering Public Library created a new policy in 2012 that incorporates both the Customer Service Standard and the new Accessible Information and Communications Standard. This policy was posted on our website and it includes a feedback mechanism. This policy makes it clear that we will consult with the individual to select a suitable format, handle requests in a timely manner and ensure that disabled clients are not charged more than any other person in the community. Signs that highlight key points from the new Accessible Information and Communications Standard were posted at all our service desks to draw client attention to this pertinent information. Training on all relevant Accessibility standards has been incorporated in the training plan for new hires. Two of our staff attended training on creating documents in accessible formats. An Information and Communications procedure was developed to support and guide staff. For instance, this procedure outlines the hiring process for a sign language interpreter because Library programs are considered information sharing and everyone in the community should be able to attend. 5 87 The Pickering Public Library has arranged to provide accessible materials where they exist. We routinely provide resources in large print, audiobooks, ebooks and online databases for online learning and research. A special magnifier was purchased in 2012 to ensure that clients can read print material in-house. Through a partnership with the CNIB, we can provide resources in Braille and Daisy - reader audio books for anyone with a visual or print disability. With the support of the CNIB, we can now be the public library for the visually disabled in our community. The Library continues to digitize its local history collection so that it can be accessible. The Local History Librarian is willing to research and digitize primary documents based on individual requests. The Library's website was overhauled to meet World Wide Web Consortium Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0, Level A. C. Employment Accessibility Standards Emergency Planning During 2012, the City of Pickering's Human Resource Division ensured that Workplace Emergency Plans include individual plans for those employees who may require assistance because of a disability. Emergency Responders, located in all facilities, are provided with information from these individual plans, with the employee's consent, in order to provide appropriate assistance to an employee during an emergency situation. Policy Development The Pickering Public Library created an Accessible Employment Standards policy in 2012. This policy outlined the Library's commitment to: • ensure that employees are provided with the accessible formats and communication supports to do their job and to access information that is generally available to other employees in the workplace • develop individualized workplace emergency plans for an employee with a disability and alter them if an employee moves to a different branch • notify employees and applicants that they will be accommodated during the recruitment, assessment and selection process in a way that takes into account their accessibility needs • outline our commitment to put work processes in place for employees who are absent from work due to a disability and need disability-related accommodations in order to return to work. This policy was reviewed with all library staff. Our commitment to accommodate applicants during the recruitment process is outlined on the Job Opportunities section of our website. 6 88 D.Accessible Transportation Standards Taxi Licensing Because the City of Pickering does not operate a public transit system, the only requirements under the Transportation Standards for 2012 were those relating to the licensing of taxicabs. • Ensuring that owners and operators place vehicle registration and identification on the rear bumper. • Ensuring that owners and operators provide this information in alternate formats to persons with a disability, upon request. E. Accessible Built Environment Standard The City of Pickering continued to examine its physical facilities to identify and remove physical barriers to enable persons with disabilities to fully participate in programs and events in those facilities. The following upgrades were made in 2012: City Hall • 3 Automatic door openers to provide access to meeting rooms which are used for public meetings and consultations: the main committee meeting room and the tower meeting room/lunchroom area. Pickering Public Library • New accessible water fountains were installed at the Pickering Central Library.

Pickering Museum Village The Pickering Museum Village is a collection of heritage and reproduction buildings presented in an 1800's village setting. Several of the heritage buildings have public display areas on the second floor, As it is impossible to provide full access to these areas without considerable destruction to heritage features of the buildings, Museum staff has provided photographic versions of the displays with accompanying information. These can be viewed on the accessible main level of each of the buildings. The village setting of the Museum requires considerable travel from one building to another and around the exterior displays and gardens. To provide assistance for visitors who may have difficulty walking theses distances, the Museum, in 2012, acquired a transport wheelchair for their use. • 4 automatic door openers installed: the exterior entrance to the _ _ public washroom areas"" " ; both interior public ;'. washrooms and the =- interior doorway from , 1,, the meeting room to the - = 11 washroom area (< Fil (11I b 1 �.. • Improved ramps to 3 s' ' Et l �{'.. ;- heritage buildings: the c ^" r g,s Oddfellows Hall, the Temperance House and the log Redman House Brougham Temperance House house. 9 91 City Parks During 2012, the City's Parks Operations installed the first accessible, raised bed in the Valley Plentiful Community Garden. This was in response to a request from a long-time member of the community garden and the plan is to install more raised beds in 2013. 1 .' } MAw � IM gel q t B T y'. jot 4 a 1 1 -•r+�'�. } 1 "" m1 .

In 2012, Dunbarton Indoor Pool also had a chair lift installed so patrons with mobility problems can access the pool. Day Camps The City of Pickering Day Camp programs provided integrated camp experiences for approximately fifty (50) children with disabilities. The City's Integrated Services program provided one-on-one support to these children which enabled them to participate in a variety of camp programs. All camp staff received training in accessible customer service, as well as awareness and specific practical training in how to support children with disabilities. 11 93 G.The Pickering Accessibility Advisory Committee The Accessibility Advisory Committee held a total of nine meetings in 2012 and participated in the following initiatives: 1. Accessibility Awareness Event: • Held 2" annual Accessibility Awareness Event on Sat. November 5th, 2012. • Pickering Town Centre— Centre Court, 11 am — 3 pm • Included a combination of speakers and entertainers with the focus being on "abilities in our community" 2.

Holborn Director, Engineering & Public Works Subject: Eurasian Water-Milfoil Weed — Frenchman's Bay - File: A-1440 Recommendation: 1. That Report ENG 01-13 of the Director, Engineering & Public Works regarding Eurasian Water-Milfoil Weed on Frenchman's Bay be received for information; 2. That staff be directed to include funding requests during the preparation of the 2014 to 2016 budgets for continued support for this initiative; and 3. That staff report back to Council annually regarding the status of the Milfoil weed presence in Frenchman's Bay. Executive Summary: Over the past few years, Eurasian Water-Milfoil, an invasive aquatic weed, has been quickly re-colonizing Frenchman's Bay. During the summer of 2012, its growth began to cause problems for the boaters and paddlers by binding up propellers, keels and paddles. Members of the boating community and residents around the bay formed the Allies of Frenchman's Bay Association with the focus of jointly combating the Milfoil weed problem. The group researched the various control methods and recommended an integrated management plan through the use of the Milfoil Weevil, herbicide treatment and dredging. They obtained quotations for the said works and prepared a contribution plan which included some funding from the City of Pickering over a four year period. In early August 2013, approximately 20,000 Milfoil Weevil eggs and larvae were stocked in the bay, in an area where the Eurasian Water-Milfoil growth was the thickest adjacent to Bruce Hanscombe Park. Financial Implications: As part of the 2013 Current Budget, Council approved a grant up to $30,000 as the City's share for the first year of the program. Requests for future funding requirements will be considered during the annual budget approval process as follows: $20,000 for year 2 (2014), $10,000 for year 3 (2015) and $750 for year 4 (2016) for a total of$60,750 over the four year period. 95 Report ENG 01-13 October 7, 2013 Eurasian Water-Milfoil Weed — Frenchman's Bay Page 2 Due to this year's cooler weather and higher water levels the Milfoil weed growth was not as extreme. As such, fewer weevils were introduced into the bay than originally proposed, thus reducing the City's share of the cost to $8,325.00 for 2013. Discussion: For a number of years the Toronto and Region Conservation Authority have been monitoring the growth of aquatic vegetation on Frenchman's Bay. Over the summers of 2011 and 2012, they witnessed the complete re-colonization of aquatic plants over the bay. This was due to the improvement of water clarity, low water levels and hot, sunny summers. The positive aspect of this re-colonization was that the aquatic plants provided excellent fish and wildlife habitat. The problem was that 20 percent of the bay was being re-colonized with the invasive Eurasian Water-Milfoil. The spread of this weed needed to be kept in check before populating the entire bay. The spring and early summer of 2013 were colder and wetter than the previous years and the bay water levels were higher. As such, the Eurasian Water-Milfoil growth was slower to start and less aggressive this year than in 2011 and 2012. In light of this, a smaller test pilot site using the Milfoil Weevil was introduced in an area where the Eurasian Water-Milfoil growth was the thickest, adjacent to Bruce Hanscombe Park, to assess its suitability in combating the Eurasian Water-Milfoil on Frenchman's Bay. Eurasian Water-Milfoil Eurasian Water-Milfoil (Myriophyllum spicatum) is an aquatic plant native to Europe, Asia and Northern Africa that was introduced to North America in the 1940's and is believed to have been introduced to Frenchman's Bay in the 1960's. This plant is problematic due to its aggressive growth, forming large floating mats that prevent light penetration for the native aquatic plants, depleting oxygen levels and adding nutrients to the water during plant decay. This in turn displaces the natural aquatic vegetation impacting fish and wildlife, increases algae growth and degrades the water quality. Due to its density, Eurasian Water-Milfoil impedes navigation of both large and small boats by binding up propellers, keels and paddles. It increases threat to public safety and may eventually have an economic impact, affecting property values around the bay, tourism and retail services. Allies of Frenchman's Bay Association During the fall of 2012, the following organizations and businesses were invited to be part of the Allies of Frenchman's Bay Association (formerly the Frenchman's Bay Eurasian Water-Milfoil Steering Committee): • Pickering East Shore Community Association (PESCA) • West Shore Community Association (WSCA) • Frenchman's Bay Yacht Club • Pickering Harbour Company • Pickering Auxiliary Rescue Association (PARU) • Swan's Marina • DSCC No. 185 (Dockominium) 96 • Report ENG 01-13 October 7, 2013 Eurasian Water-Milfoil Weed — Frenchman's Bay Page 3 • Pickering Dragon Boat Club • Pickering Rouge Canoe Club The Toronto and Region Conservation Authority and City of Pickering were also invited to attend as stakeholders of the Bay. A number of the Allies of Frenchman's Bay Association members have spent a significant amount of time researching Eurasian Water-Milfoil and the various management tools that have been used to control the plant historically. They have spoken with other municipalities that have been combating this issue to get an understanding of what has been tried and what methods have been successful. Some of the methods being used include: • Mechanical Harvesting • Rotovation (underwater rototilling) • Continuous Laminar Flow Aeration System • Hydraulic dredging • Herbicide • Biological weevils Through the research done, they are recommending that an integrated management plan approach be used. This includes the use of biological weevils in areas not affected by boat traffic and adjacent to natural shorelines. Areas along hard shorelines and around docks could be treated with a Ministry of Environment approved aquatic herbicide (Reward). Hydraulic or pneumatic dredging is recommended along key navigation channels as a means to deepen the channel and remove the problematic aquatic vegetation. The Continuous Laminar Flow Aeration System is being further researched to confirm its costs and suitability for use in dock areas. Milfoil Weevil The milfoil weevil (Euhrychiopsis lecontei) is a marine insect which is native to North America that specifically feeds on Eurasian Water-Milfoil. The weevil, which is fully aquatic, spends the summer submersed on plants, producing 3 to 4 generations over that time. The last generation of adult weevils develop wing muscles which enables them to migrate to shore to overwinter in dry soil and leaf litter. An adult weevil grows to be 2 to 3 millimeters in length. The milfoil weevil destroys the water-milfoil plant by `mining' into the stem and eating it from the inside out, disrupting the flow of carbohydrates and nutrients that give the plant the ability to grow in the summer and survive in the winter. The plant also loses its buoyancy and will sink to the bottom of the water as it dies, leaving an opening for the desirable aquatic plants to re-establish. Milfoil Weevils are naturally found in the area and have no known negative impacts on people, animals, fish or other vegetation. In order to combat the Eurasian Water-Milfoil, a company called Milfoil Solution Inc. recommended stocking the bay with a significantly higher number of milfoil weevil than 97 Report ENG 01-13 October 7, 2013 Eurasian Water-Milfoil Weed - Frenchman's Bay Page 4 what is naturally found in the water, starting with 40,000 in the first year, and 35,000 and 10,000 in the following two years. The weevil stocking occurs in June to early July. An initial survey is conducted prior to stocking with a follow-up survey 6 to 8 weeks later after the weevils have established multiple generations in order to track progress. Reward Herbicide One of the herbicides being considered is Reward Landscape and Aquatic Herbicide. This herbicide is non-selective and as such will kill the milfoil as well as other native plants such as Coontail and Duckweed. As such, it should only be used around dock areas and hard shorelines where it is not suitable to stock the milfoil weevil. Reward herbicide has been approved for use by the Ministry of Environment though permits will still be required from the Ministry of Natural Resources for each application. 2012 Estimated Costs for Milfoil Weevil and Herbicide Treatments The Allies of Frenchman's Bay Association obtained quotations during the summer of 2012, for treatments using weevils and herbicides for a total estimated cost of$169,521 over four years. Based on these estimated costs, they were proposing a four-year funding contribution plan that included funding from the City of Pickering for approximately 35% of the cost. The balance of the costs would be covered through funds provided by the other stakeholders and fundraising. The amount requested from the City was $30,000 for year 1 (2013), with projected costs of$20,000 for year 2 (2014), $10,000 for year 3 (2015) and $750 for year 4 (2016) for a total of $60,750. The cost for dredging would be borne solely by the boat clubs and dock owners. 2013 Treatments and Associated Costs Due to the spring and early summer of 2013 having cooler temperatures and more rain and the bay having higher water levels, the milfoil weed had a late start and its growth was not as extreme as the previous two years. As such, it was decided that a test pilot site would be established in an area where the Eurasian Water-Milfoil growth was the thickest adjacent to Bruce Hanscombe Park. In early August, 20,000 Milfoil Weevil eggs and larvae were stocked in this area, to weaken the standing milfoil population over the remainder of the 2013 season and to build an overwintering population of weevils that will return to the water early in 2014. Milfoil Solutions, who provided the treatment will monitor their success and provide further recommendations in 2014, depending on the future growth of the milfoil. The cost for the treatment for 2013 was $23,600 with the City's share being $8,325.00. Frenchman's Bay Yacht Club dredged the area around their docks and a channel to the harbour entrance during the spring of 2013. Pickering Harbour Company are proposing to dredge around their docks during the fall of 2013. TRCA has advised that they will also continue to monitor the plant growth within Frenchman's Bay. 98 Report ENG 01-13 October 7, 2013 Eurasian Water-Milfoil Weed — Frenchman's Bay Page 5 4i:A:toillife'4%0;44 c • - r 0 • sF View looking across the ba with Eurasian Water-Milfoil in foreground (2012) ��,i':.1 l ICY f, �� k .-:i ;; Mat A • , .-0,wil■ .411111111166,---i. 4{' .: Ja.. _ ,__,..qe,ji . l - - -4111111111:, p, 4 y .A: 's _ —, — w y ..41 i-.li3S'G.... — ..

REPORT# GI 1 -I 3'- EWM 101 Eurasian Water-M><lfoal THE BASICS What is it? Eurasian water-milfoil(Myriophyllum spicatum)is an aggressive, invasive,rooted aquatic perennial plant. What is its origin? Eurasian water-milfoil(EWM)is native,to Europe, Asia, and Northern Africa, and it was likely introduced to North America in the 1940s. EWM has spread to 45 U.S. states and three Canadian provinces(Ontario,Quebec, and British Columbia). Why is it a AN ECOLOGICAL THREAT problem? EWM: • Forms large, floating mats of vegetation preventing light penetration for native aquatic plants. • Displaces natural aquatic vegetation,negatively impacting fish and wildlife habitat. • Depletes aquatic oxygen levels and adds nutrients to the water during plant decay which can potentially increase algae growth and degrade water quality. • Plant fragments can travel long distances out of water(if kept moist)by boat,boat trailers,bait buckets, etc. A HUMAN HEALTH CONCERN EWM: • Can increase threats to public health and safety. A RECREATIONAL IMPEDIMENT_ EWM: • Impairs recreational use such as swimming, boating, and fishing. AN ECONOMIC FACTOR EWM: • • Reduces waterfront property values and impacts real estate sales. • Impacts water related tourism,hospitality,and retail services. • Increases expenditures on prevention and control if proactive action not taken. 114 i,.1__..a :h.NIE.N�.i.z.� ,C REPORT# �"!'� 1 -13 0 4,4b> L‘,.„ What does it EWM has delicate, feather-like leaves comprising of 12 - 16 look like? pairs of leaflets on each leaf. Leaves are mostly the same length; the tips are square with a snipped off appearance. Leaves are arranged in whorls(circles)of three to five leaves around each stem. The stem is thick as or thicker than a pencil, and is long and spaghetti like in appearance. EWM plants can grow to 9 metres(30 feet)in length with the majority of the branching occurring at the surface. How does it EWM grows quickly and spreads easily. It grows in depths grow and of up to 8 metres of water....deeper depths if the water is spread? clear...and is tolerant of many water pollutants(e.g. sodium, chloride,etc.). It grows in any type of aquatic substrate: it prefers sand to silt type substrates. While EWM produces seeds, it reproduces primarily through fragmentation,which occurs naturally when the plant flowers at the end of its annual growing season. Fragmentation can also occur through manmade disturbances such as power boating and sailing. Once fragmented,the pieces are dispersed by wind and water movement,eventually sinking to the bottom and taking root. Once rooted the plant is further propagated through root division ....runners that creep along the bottom. EWM tends to invade disturbed areas(e.g. altered waterways)where native plants cannot adapt to the . alteration;EWM does not spread rapidly into undisturbed areas where native plants are well established. How do you Once established EWM can not be eradicated. It can only eliminate EWM? be controlled through various management methods. 115 -.TTACNMENi. 3,... TO REPORT# ENG ( -13 of a? MILFOIL WEEVIL (Euhrychiopsis lecontei) ‘tt 110 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Q: How big is an adult weevil? A: The adult weevil grows to 2-3 mm in length(about this size: • ). Q: What is its food source? A: The marine insect which is native to North America appears to prefer Eurasian water-milfoil over its native host,northern water-milfoil. The milfoil weevil is highly specific to water-milfoils. • Q: What is the life cycle of the weevil? A: Like other insects,the weevil goes through the egg,larvae, and pupa stages before reaching the adult stage. The weevil has the potential to cause damage to water- milfoil plants at every stage in its life cycle. The weevil is fully aquatic and spends the summer submersed on plants. The adult female weevil lays approximately 2-3 eggs per day on the growing tips of the plant.The eggs hatch into larvae after 3-6 days and the larvae begin feasting on the plant's growing tips for several days.The larvae then burrow into the plant's stems where they feed on the tissue within the stems for 5- 10 days. After 7 -12 days in the pupal stage,the weevil emerges as an adult where it feeds on the upper leaves of the milfoil plants while reproducing. Weevil reproduction throughout the summer may produce 3 -4 generations of weevils. The last generation of adult weevils develops wing muscles which enable the weevil to migrate to shore where it overwinters in dry soil and leaf litter. Q: What effect does a weevil have on Eurasian water-milfoil? A: The weevil destroys the whole plant by `mining' into the stem and eating it from the inside out. The tunneling disrupts the flow of carbohydrates and nutrients, impacting the plant's ability to grow in the summer and survive in the winter.The plant also loses its buoyancy due to the weakened stems and will sink to the bottom as it dies. As a dying Eurasian water-milfoil plant sinks to the bottom an opening in the plant canopy is created enabling other desirable aquatic plants to grow and eventually replace the invasive species. 116 ATTACHMENT .3._ TO REPORT# ' Iv 6, Q: What factors impede the reproduction of weevils? A: Water temperature,parasites,pathogens,water depth,and other factors affect the population of weevils.High nutrient levels in the water will accelerate Eurasian water-milfoil growth making it difficult for weevils to control. Water bodies with natural shorelines will achieve higher weevil densities than shorelines with vegetation replaced by retaining walls,rip rap,mown grass,and sand.Natural shorelines may provide better habitat for overwintering adult weevils.As the density of Eurasian water-milfoil decreases,the weevil population will gradually decline to a self-sustaining natural population level. Q: Will weevils become problematic by infiltrating shoreline homes or biting household pets when they come on land in the fall? A: No. Milfoil weevils have no known negative impact on people, animals,fish or desirable vegetation. 117 ■ CC W o 5 —, 0 cx � a a o C ate- W a 0 'a Z O_ Lt-+ N l> L� w-4 J l N m I N < C7 '-i W CC L H ' v a `n w 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 O O J 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 O O O O O O O O O O O p ,� CQ �f 0 t!1 O v] u) t1'I LP) ul Vl O Li."

Under the provisions of Section 357 of the Municipal Act, reduction of taxes due to fire, demolition, exemption, assessment change or error is allowed. Change in realty tax class can translate into lower property taxes if the property moved from industrial to commercial tax class or commercial to residential tax class. Demolitions and other physical changes to a property, such as filling in a swimming pool, or damage caused by fire or flooding, result in a reduction in assessment and a corresponding reduction in property taxes. Seven of the applications in Attachment 1 had their assessments reduced to reflect fire damage or demolition. Seventeen of the applications referred to in Attachment 1 had their assessment class revised to a class with a lower tax rate. 128 Report FIN 21-13 Date: October 7, 2013 Subject: Section 357/358 of the Municipal Act—Adjustment to Taxes Page 2 Thirteen of the applications in Attachment 1 have no changes to their assessment, as MPAC has verified that they are ineligible. Section 358 of the Municipal Act allows taxpayers to have their assessments revised by MPAC where they believe that they have been overcharged due to a gross or manifest clerical error on the part of MPAC. On this basis, taxpayers are allow to seek reduction of their assessments for the current year as well as the two prior years. This section of the Act allows for the reduction of taxes due to such errors, once confirmed by the Regional Assessment Office of MPAC. Two of the applications referred to in Attachment 1 were incorrectly assessed by MPAC as having a finished basement, and this report will adjust the related accounting transactions to reflect the correct assessments for all eligible years. The purpose of Sections 357/358 is to allow the municipality and MPAC to quickly rectify assessment classification changes, and prior year's errors quickly without having the property owner having to go through the formal assessment review process.
