Letter from Pat Dunnill, Chair, Pickering Museum Village Foundation dated June 9, 2002 AUTHORITY: Municipal Act Report to Council OES 030-02 Subject: Proposed Hotel Restoration Project Date: Jtmc 18, 2002 Page 2 FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS: The Picketing Museum Village Foundation have made a commitnaent to fully t'tmd tile complete moving and restoration of the Brougham Central Hotel estimated at a cost of approximately 5500,000. The total City of Pickering costs for the Hotel Restoration Project are not knoxv~l at this time. An architect will be required to work xvittl stall' in ideiltit:ving all costs associated with the establishment of a ~nexv Program Operations Centre. There arc currently no funds ~a tt~c Museum Budget Ibr this work to take place in 2002. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The restoration of the Brougham Cer~tral Hotel ]las been identified as tile next major building pro.jcct at the Picketing Museum Village. Tile Hotel is currently used as tt~e operations center by stat'f and volunteers for education programs a~ld eye,its. The Picketing Mt~seum Village Foumdatiotl taavc agreed to financially support this i'cstoratiotn project contingent upon the City of Pickering's willingness to proceed with the establishment of a new Program Operations Centre. BACKGROUND: The restoratio~l of the Brougham Ce~tral Hotel at tt~c Pickct'irlg Nluscum Village has been identified as tile next major joint project for tho City of Pickcr-i~:, Picketing Museum Advisory Committee and the Picketing Museum Village Foundation. in 2001, the Pickering Museum Village Fo[mdation retai~lcd tho services of Andre Scheinman, Heritage Preservation Consultant, to undertake a Conservatio~ Stud\ of tiao Brougllam Central Hotel. The main objective of this study was to examinee and evaluate tile historic and architectural data associated with the Hotel a~ld devise a pla~ l-or its future usc, restoration and interpretation. The study identified that the most appropriate and respo~lsible approach to the future interpretation of this building would be to focus o~ tt~e documented hotel aspect of the building histo~~ and its many remaining unique constructiot~ features. Andre Scheinman reported that any future tbr the building is ?imf to require the urgent stabilization of the basic structure, followed by a program of ttlorot~gta exterior and interior conservation and restoration. Following the completion of ,Andre Scheinlan's stt~dv, represe~tatives from the Picketing Museum Advisory Committee, Pickering Museurnn Village Foundatiom and staff tnave been meeting to develop planning options for the Hotel Restoration Pro.jeer. Presently, tile Hotel site is the center of the Village on the highest elevatio~l o~ tile site. It is Llsed as ail operatio~ls center by staff and volunteers for events and educatio~a programs. \Vasl~roo~s, kitchen facilities, staff and volunteer Facilities and storage of artiCacts amd program materials arc all contai~qcd xvithi~l tile structure. It faces west and backs onto ttae Fence alo~g Green\rood Road. Ir'the Hotel is restored in its present location, relocation of these operations to ottler areas xvill create logistical problems for programs and events. The present site of tile Hotel is tt~e ideal location within the Village for an operation center for education programs and public events. Report to Council OES 03(t-02 Subject: Proposed Hotel Restoration Project Date: June 18, 2002 Paoe ~ The Brougham Central Hotel Restoration Project supported by the Picketing Museum Advisory Committee and Pickering Museum Village Foundation includes the following: 1. Restore the Hotel as a Temperance Hotel for interpretive purposes. In order to do this we need to remove the washrooms from this building. Move the Hotel to where the Drive Shed sits at the present time and turn it to face the path coming up into the village and returning it to its former vantage point in the village of Brougham. This requires that the Drive Shed be set back towards the edge of this manicured area. Bring in or create a building on the present Hotel site where the kitchen and xvashrooms could be housed, along with storage needed for day-to-day maintenance and teaching activities. This proposal has been reviewed by TRCA, Durham Health and City staff and is deemed doable. Attached is a letter dated June 9, 2002, from Pat Dunnill, Chair, Picketing Museum Village Foundation (PMVF) confirming a financial commitment from the PMVF to fund the complete moving and restoration of' the Brougham Central Hotel, including the moving of the Drive Shed. The funding commitment is contingent upon the City of Pickermg's willingness to commit to proceed in concert with the establishment of a new Program Operations Centre. We have looked at heritage houses on Airport Lands due for demolition. It is possible that one of these houses may serve the purpose of the Program Operation Centre on the Museum Village site. There will be a need to provide temporary kitchen and washroom facilities to continue program operations until a new program operations center is completed. In order to be able to submit requests for funds to funding organizations such as the Trillium Foundation and the Heritage Canada Foundation the Picketing Museum Village Foundation have identified they are required to arrange a ten (10) year lease of the Hotel from the City of Pickering.

This situation also poses a safety hazard for the motoring public Hence, because there is no dwelling on the severed property, the road segment is barricaded ever-,' winter. The property changed hands in 2001 and it is the new owners intention to build a permanent dx~elling on this property. To provide safe year round access, it has been determined by staff that the xenical alignment of the road would have to be improved The Solicitor for the City has advised that the developer }las fulfilled its obligation of tile Development Agreement in order to satisL' the condition or' the Land Division application for allowing a building permit to be issued Tile City must be able to perlbrm year round maintenance on this road to provide access to tile property and specifically the future building Bids for T-8-2002 were received on \Vednesdav.

Attached to the letter is a more detailed summar~ of what is being requested by Can-Son Recycling Limited. Also attached to this Report is a n~emorandum from the Director. Planning 8,: Development wherein it is noted that the current site currently experiences functional restrictions with respect to truck traffic and that the amendment provides for outside storage whereas the current site plan recognizes that all activity at this site x~'ould be contained within the existing building. Based on these concerns, the Director has recommended that Council oppose this application. Also attached to this Report is a memorandum from the DMsion }lead. Municipal Property & Engineering indicating that the proposed amendment would have a major impact on traffic on Toy A~enue and Quartz street and also a major impact on businesses using the intersection of' Toy A~enue and Bayly Street. The addition of residential waste x~ould create problems for the area businesses due to odours and animals. In 1998, Can-Sort Recycling I,imited made application to amend the same Certificate of Approval to increase the maximum metric tonnage of solid non-hazardous waste received per da)' from 150 to 750 metric tonnes, increase the site storage of x~aste from 250 to 1.000 metric tonnes and to accept solid non-hazardous institutional waste. Council strenuously opposed this application in 1998 and I have attached tbur resolutions that x~ere passed by Council in 1998 setting ()ut its ohiections. Based on the tbregoing, I would again recommend that Council oppose this current application to amend the Certificate of Approval submitted by Can-Sort Ret:cling Limited and request that a Hearing be held under the Environmental Protection Act as noted in the letter dated May 22, 2002 from the Minist~ of the Environment and Energy.

'TO REPORT# PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT MEMORANDUM June 18, 2002 To: From 7 S ubj ect: Bruce Taylor City Clerk Nell Carroll Director, Planning & Development Application for Amendment to The Ministry of Environment and Energy Certificate of Approval No. A390421 Can-Sort Recycling Ltd. Part of Lot 18, Concession 1 1048 Toy Avenue City of Picketing This Department has completed an initial review of the above-noted matter. It is our understanding that the applicant seeks Ministry approval to increase the amount and t.vpe of waste processed on-site, and to add outdoor storage of recyclables as a permitted activity. Based on this understanding and our concerns respecting functionality of the site, it is recommended that City Council oppose the applicant's request for revision to the Ministry of Environment and Energy's Certificate of Approval pertaining to the subject site. Increased processing limitations for the site will likely increase truck traffic to a site that currently has several site function restrictions. The large size of the building in relation to the lot area, severe limitation of on-site maneuvering space, substantial truck traffic and periodic occurrences of unapproved outdoor storage all contribute to the opinion that the site currently functions at capacity. Based on the limited information available for review respecting the proposal, we cannot provide support for any expansion in use of the facility. Bruce Taylor June 1 Pa~e 2 I am not aware of any pre-consultation between the applicant and the City respecting this proposal, certainly not with the Planning & Development Department. It is possible that further discussions between thc City and the applicant could provide a better understanding of tile application and lead to a more positive Departmental response. Revisions to the approved site plan and or proposed site operations could potentially bring some level of support for elements of' the applicant's request. The proposal n'my also require a peer reviexv IYom a consuhant well versed in waste management matters, to assist Council in £ormulating its position. The follov, mg comments are provided lbr your consideration. Proposal Can-Sort Recycling Ltd. has applied for an amendment to the Nlinistrv of Enviromnent and Energy (MOEE) Certificate of Approval which is applicable to the waste processing, recycling and transfer facility that operates at 1048 Iov Avenue/there are tv,'o buildings on the property al 1048 To}' Ave. this certificate pertains to the portion oi'ti~e site and the building that fronts on thc north side of' Quartz Street). A map idcntif:,dng the location of the site in question is attached. The current certificate of approval, which was originally isstied in 1992 and revised in 1998, permits Can-sort to process commercial and industrial non-hazardous v:aste (primarily construction waste), to remove recyclables such as scrap metals, cardboard and wood. Residual waste, once tile recvclables are removed, is then shipped to approved landfills. The current request is generally to increase thc amount and t}'pe of waste processed on- site, and to add outdoor storage of recvclables as a permitted activity. Planning & Development Staff are not aware of any restrictions on the source of tile residential waste proposed to be processed on site. it is our understanding that the proposal may be to accept waste from any source within tile Province. City Council has previously expressed concerns respecting a Picketing facility accepting waste from outside Picketing / the Region of Durham. It is our understanding, from mtbrmation obtained from the NIinistrv of Environment and Energy WEB site and discussions with Ministry Staff that the proposed amendments to thc current Certificate of Approval are as follov,'s: Bruce Taylor ,-, i-fA(2i-~ ;~. 2 ~ June 18, 2002 Page 3 Current Certificate tmendments to certificate of (as am~ maximum waste received and shipped per day -300 tomaes maximum on site storage at any one time of solid unprocessed waste, processed material and residual waste -400 tonnes all residual waste and recovered recyclable material to be stored within enclosed buildings -waste disposal site (processing) (processing terminology refers to a maximum of 199 tonnes of waste leaving the site ) permitted to accept: soil non-hazardous commercial and industrial xvaste (excludes hazardous xvaste, liquid industrial waste, pathological waste, agricultural waste, processed organic waste, domestic waste, and hauled storage) Hours of operation Monday to Saturday 6:00 am.

Wardaousing, storage of goods and materials, waste transtkr and recycling, waste processing, and freight transfer uses are permitted in the Gc~Jer~l EmFi~o'me~t Area. The current usc of the property, and the proposed changes to the use which would result IYon~ the requested ~endments to the Certificate of Approval. contbnn to the policies of the Picketing Official Plan. 'I'he property is zoned "*lC O" Associated Industrial by Zoning By-law 2511, as amended by By-law 223486. This zoning permits manufacturing or industrial uses, as well as warehouses and distribution depots, light manufacturing plants for the processing of goods and materials, and outdoor storage in any yard. except the fi'om yard, so long as tile area used for outdoor storage does not exceed 30 percent of the area of the lot. The current use of the property, and the proposed changes to the use which would result from the requested amendments to the Certilicate of Approval. con]ply with the applicable zoning by-law. Site Plan There is currently an approved site plan, S35/88 (R 95), which governs tile subject property. The approved site plan alloxvs Ibr trucks to access and exit the site in an orderly maimer based on traffic flow infoiqnation available at tile tinqe of site plan approval. The building on the site is quite large in comparison to the lot area. This design recognized the applicant's proposal to contain all activity v:ithin the building, with most all remaining site area utilized and required for truck manoeuvring. Consequently. despite the fact that limited outdoor storage is pennitted by the zoning bv-laxx, tile site plan did not identit\,' or permit any outdoor storage bins. The subject site currently exhibits functional restrictions. Tile site cannot contain all vehicle activity associated with the operation. Currently the operation requires that trucks back up on Quartz Street {a City public strectL to enter the building and load material. An increase in the waste processing limits may require queuing of trucks on Quartz Street, resulting in traffic and environmental problems. Further, the large coverage of the building on the lot leaves very limited area for the provision of buffering from adjacent uses. The Certificate of ApprovaI issued bv tile MOEE establishes limitations on site activities. Any expansion to the amount of material received, shipped, processed and / or stored on- site will increase site activity on a site that is already very confined. O40 Bruce Taylor June 18, 2002 Page 5 Ministry staff advised that the City may request an extension of time to respond to the ~'equested revision to the Certificate of Approval applicable to the site. However, the Ministry may not consider such a request if it results in a significant time delay.

The increase of tonnages and conversion to a transI'cr station indicate that truck traffic to and fi'om the site. using Quartz Street and Toy :Xxcnuc will increase. Delays at the intersection of Toy Avenue and Bayly Street. which is unsignalized, will cause traffic impacts for other businesses on the street and may interfere with access to the Tim Horton's on the corner of Toy Avenue and Ba)'iy Street. A wip generation and traffic impact assessment is required to be submitted lbr review to determine if the amendment can be supported, and if improvements are required in the Ibnn of traffic signals or othe~vise. O42 Bruce Taylor Subject: Application for Amendment to Certificate of Approval Can-Sort Recycling Limited. ](~45 Toy Avenue June 17, 2002 Page 2 It is our interpretation that the existing Certificate of Approval allows for 300 tonnes of waste to be accepted per day, 199 tonnes of waste to be removed per day and 400 tonnes of storage at any one time. Outside bin storage is not allowed. The amendment is to add 100 tonnes of incoming waste daily and 200 tonnes of onsite storage. The application is not clear on whether an increase of waste removal is being applied for, and what form the outdoor storage will take and what amount will be stored outdoors. Additional information is required in order to comment on this aspect. It should be noted that the site is small (0.80 hectares) and traffic flow through the site is limited and difficult. A revised site plan to indicate the flow of traffic and site storage location (s) is required before any increases can be supported Due to the proximity and nature of surrounding businesses, the addition of residential waste is not recommended. Issues due to odours, animals etc. will be apparent and will atTcct neighbouring properties. Outdoor bin storage was removed from the 1998 application to the Ministry of the Environment for a Certificate Approval due to concerns fromthe City of Pickering. Due to the size of the sitc. and its configuration with adjacent properties, the outdoor storage is still not appropriate.

O5O REPORT TO COUNCIL FROM: Bruce Taylor. AMCT, CMM City Clerk DATE: June 17. 2002 REPORT NUMBER: CL 22-02 SUBJECT: Pickering/Ajax/Whitby Joint Animal Control and Service Agreements RECOMMENDATION: 1. That Clerk's Report CL 22-02 regarding the status of the Pickering/Ajax/Whitby Joint Animal Control and Service Agreements be received for information. ORIGIN: Resolution passed by Town of Ajax dated June 10. 2002 AUTHORITY: Section 210 of the Municipal Act FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS: Not applicable EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The purpose of this Report is to extend the time limit set out in Resolution #46/02 passed on March 4. 2002 to withdraw from the PAW Animal Control Service on condition that the Town of Ajax partners with the City of Pickering on establishing an animal control service. BACKGROUND: Please be advised that Council passed the following resolution at its regular meeting of March 4, 2002: WHEREAS in 1982, the municipalities of Pickering, Ajax and Whitby purchased the Animal Control Centre located at 4680 Thickson Road North in the Town of Whitby from the Ontario Humane Society but continued to allow the Ontario Humane Society to provide animal control services under contract to the three municipalities; and Report to Council CL 22-02 Subject: PAW Joint Animal Control and Serx'ice Agreements Date: June 17. 2002 Page 2 WHEREAS in 1985, due to increasing costs and decreasing service, the municipalities of Picketing, Ajax and V~'hitby decided to jointly undertake the entire animal control operation and entered into agreements to provide for such service: and WHEREAS in a Sen'icing Agreement dated December 31, 1985, the Iow'n of Whitby agreed to provide the sen'ices of pound-keeper and animal control officer for the three municipalities; and WHEREAS this Servicing Agreement may be terminated on December 31 year by any of the three municipalities upon six month's prior written notice; and WHEREAS in an Animal Control Agreement dated December 31, 1985, the responsibilities of the three municipalities respecting the establishment of a joint animal control service and a joint board of management, in addition to criteria related to the premises, contract services, indemnification and agreement termination are set out; and WHEREAS this Animal Control Agreement may be terminated on December 31~' in any year by any of the three municipalities upon six month's prior ,a'ritten notice; and WHEREAS the Animal Control Agreement proxides for the equal distribution of properD' and related assets: and WHEREAS the Council of the Corporation of the CiD' of Pickering would like to improve the Level of service to our residents and their animals particularly in areas such as adoptions, enforcement, animal disposal, public relations and education; and WHEREAS the animal control operation can be operated at a cost saving to residents if the Town of Ajax partnered w'ith the City of Picketing to provide such an operation; NOW THEREFORE the Council of the Corporation hereby resolves that subject to the Council of the Town of Ajax agreeing to partner ~ith the CiD' of Picketing to provide an animal control sen'ice that: 1. Pursuant to Section 19(1)(b) of the Servicing Agreement, notice is hereby given that the City of Picketing wishes to terminate the Agreement on December 31, 2002. 2. Pursuant to Section 15(1)(b) of the Animal Control Agreement, notice is hereby given that the City of Picketing wishes to terminate the Agreement on December 31, 2002. AND FURTHER THAT prior to the deadline of June 30. 2002 to terminate the Servicing Agreement and the Animal Control Agreement, that the Councils of the Town of Ajax and the Cit~' of Picketing come to an agreement on such issues as the location and ownership of the animal shelter, the management of the shelter, the level of service to be provided by the staff of the animal shelter and the staff of the shelter; Report to Council CI. 22-02 Subject: PAW Joint Animal Control and Service Agreements Date: June 17. 2002 Page 3 AND FURTHER THAT a copy of this resolution be forwarded to the Council of the Town of Ajax to seek its agreement to partner with the Ci~ of Picketing in providing an animal control service commencing January 1, 2003. Since the passage of the above resolution, the Chief Administrative Officers and Clerks of the three municipalities have met twice to discuss improvements to the PAW Animal Control Service and have agreed to continue to meet in the Fall to discuss further improvements. Also, the PAW Joint Animal Control Committee endorsed a wide range of service improvements at its meeting of March 20, 2002 which Pickering Council approved at its regular meeting of April 15. 2002. Attached to this Report is a letter from the Clerk of the Town of Ajax dated June 13, 2002 advising of a resolution passed by Ajax Council advising that it does not endorse Pickering's resolution to withdraw from the PAW service agreement at this time, in order to allow for staff`to review and for recommendations to be made later in 2002. IT is important to note that the resolution passed by Pickering Council on March 4. 2002 to withdraw from the PAW Animal Control Service was conditional upon the Town of Ajax agreeing to partner with Pickering in the establishment of a joint animal control service. Further, the resolution goes on to state that prior to the deadline of June 30, 2002 to terminate the Servicing Agreement and the Animal Control Agreement, that the Councils of the Town of Ajax and the City of Pickering come to an agreement on such issues as the location and ownership of the animal shelter, the management of the shelter, the level of service to be provided by the staff of the animal shelter and the staff`of the shelter. Since the Ajax Council has deferred any decision on withdrawing from the PAW animal control service and partnering with the City of Pickering on the establishment of a joint service, the various deadlines set out in the resolution passed by Pickering Council on March 4, 2002 are no longer valid. I would recommend that Council receive this Report for information and await the final decision of Ajax Council, which should be made later in 2002. ATTACHMENTS: 1.

These committed capital projects are in essence earmarked when funds are transferred out. ~towever, these same reserve funds must earn interest income even when the unspent funds are not in its' custody. Based on our auditor's recommendation, ~ve have re-instated the 2001 opening balance for 2000 unspent carrv-over and likewise not booked any unspent comnqltmenls for capital projects in 2001. The unspent amounts arc $1,007.505 and 5321,539 respectively. Tile total of this commitment together with the OPG collection totaled 55,079,044 making the true balance of reserxes and reserve limds available at 522,148,643. Fund balances at this value approximate fund balances in the last three years. Future pressure on these balances will be experienced as the trend to keep up with the replacement costs and construction of infrastructure to keep pace with the gro~vth of tile City. Also, declining developer contributions and lower interest income based on current economic conditions, all contribute to an ever challenging financing picture.

Projected sa\'incs zcncrated by the transfer to Schedule 2 are estimated to be in excess of $~90,000 per ar~nut~t for 2002 and beyond. As Schedule 2 operates on the sell-insured principle, the savings in 2002 and 2003 will be transferred to this reserve fund to build up the fund balance in the even! of anv catastrophic claim-related costs, which may occur. It is anticipated that the savings in 2004 arid beyond will be reflected in thc departmcntal budgets and an annual transfer to maintain an appropriate balance in the fund will be included in the Current Budget process.

ORIGIN' Director, Corporate Services & Treasurer :\UTHORITY: lnvesm~ent Policy ~Report TR 10/98) Municipal Act, R.S.O. 1990, as amended. Regulation 438/97 FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS: None EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: Thc lbllowing report and attachments represent a summary of thc investment activity and year end balance in the portfolio. Investment activity for the year 2001 totaled approximately $116.8 million with avear end balance in the portfolio of approximately $31.0 million. Current Fund investments arJ limited to one year or less and Reserve and Trust Funds 10 years or less under the Co'uncil approved policy. BACKGROLrND: The City's investment portfolio is comprised of two main areas: Reserve Funds, and balances available in the Current Fund when not required to meet current operating expenditures. This latter balance can vao' greatly depending upon many factors including the quarterly receipt of property taxes. ReserYe Funds are invested through the Current Fund and investments are undertaken as one consolidated pool of funds. Interest earned is credited to the appropriate fund. As the Treasurer of the City of Picketing there are certain information and opinions that I must report, under Provincial Regulation, to the Committee and Council. I feel that the portfolio performed well during 2001 with an average yield of 4.1 per cent on short term investments. Thc average return on long term investments including internal loans was 6.5 per cent. The attached schedules arc included as part of the information requirements.
