1984 DUDGF.'r
Auth~~!..!:.~urpos~~chievements and Objectives
The Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Authority adopted a comprehensive Watershed Plan on December 5, 1980, to
establish long-range goals in nine program areas specific to the 3467 square kilometres within Authority jurisdiction. 1'he
adoption of the Plan is in compliance with the direction of the Conservation Authorities Act to undertake a program designed
to further the conservation, restoration, development and management of natural resources and of the Province of Ontario to
study and investigate the watershed and prepare and file with its member municipalities and the Minister of Natural Resources,
a Watershed Plan
The Watershed Plan has been filed wit h , and concurred in by, the Authority's member municipalites and the Director, Central
Region, Ministry of Natural Resources The Authority, in the Plan, has identi f i ed the river valleys, the Lake Ontario
shoreline and the headwaters of the Oak Ridges interlobate moraine and the Niagara Escarpment as the major resources to which
its programs are applied
'rhe Watershed Plan is comprised of nine (9 ) interrelated programs
The basic requirement of the Authority is to provide protection to human life and property from the hazards of flood i ng and
erosion The Flood Control Program and three complementary programs, Erosion and Sediment Control, Storm Water Management ilnd
Conservation Land Management, establish the means to accomplish this objective and recognize the relationships between rural
and urban drainage, erosion and sedimentation, and flooding.
Flood Control Program - Provides for remedial measures, ~and acquisition and the administration of regulatory measures to
maintain flood plains unobstructed to ensure the passage of floorl flows
Erosion and Sediment Control Program - Provides for corrective works and the administration of regulatory measures to prob~ct
life and property.
Storm ~later Mana<J.ement Program - Establishes a basis for co-operative action by the Authority and its member municipalities
wITh-respect to water management problems and the preparation of master drainage plans.
~~ns~~~~!:.l~~_~~~~ Mana~~ent Program - Promotes conservation on private and public lands by provIding reforestation, habitat
improvement, stream Improvement and a cons.~rvat ion planning service
Lan1_~~i~!..~i~~ Program - Provides for the acquisition of flood plain and valley I an(ls, waterfront lands and environmentally
significant lands to ensure proper conservation I an(1 mi'\naqemen t 1'he hectares of land acquired by the Authority are
heing managed to achIeve the objectives of the Watershed Plan
Lal;e Ontario Waterfront Development pr~<Jr~i - This program has two components, fihorel ine Hanayement to reduce the hazards of
------rloodfng-and-erosfon atllie- an lake interface, and Development to create water-or ented recreation opportunities
1984 02 06
P<:1ge 1-2
Watershen Recreation Program - Enables the development and operations of recreation areas for public use and enjoyment, a
valuable ancillary benefit on conserv<:1tion lands
~~ritage Co~~~~~~t~~~-Krogram - Recognizes the special contribut"ion that an historical perspective gives to the understanding
of resource management
Community Relations Program - Establishes the means by which the Authority can communicate with the community in order to gain
understanding and acceptance of its conservation programs.
The 1984 Budget Estimates derive from the Watershed Plan reflecting a strong orientation to Water and Related Lann I1Clnagement
ProgrClms ann emphasizing planning, regulatory ann environmentally acceptable solutions to w<:1ter management problems The
Budget proposals also address a number of administrative matters
- disposition of municipal levies on hann
- provision fo r gappi ng , set at 1% of full-time W<:H]eS, salaries ann benefits
- identification and allocation of interest income
The adoption of this Budget will not enable the Authority to maintain the level of service provided to the community in 1983
and wi 11 not ennble the \'latershed Plan objectives to be implemented at the rate anticipated on adoption
Format of Presentation
'I'he 1984 Budget Estimates are based on the same program management format as the 1983 budget format. The format is designed
to identify more clearly the programs adopted by the Authority in its Watershed Plan In addition, the budget estimates are
organized into management units to more clearly identify and manage the Authority programs The principles of program budget
management have been used to develop the Budget
'I'here are five major types of Provincial grants available through the Ministry of Natural Resources to Conservation
Au thori ties
1 Administration
2 Water and Related Land Management
3 Conservation and Recreation Land Management
4 Speci a 1 Projects and Programs
Ii Supplementary Grants (not appl icable to MTRCA)
Commencing in the 1983 budget year, the ~linistry of Natural Resources recommends the payment of grants to authorities based on
a priority ranking system, using technical criteria, which compares the 'need' for individual projects in a province-wide
matrix

TO The Chairman and Members of the Black Creek Pioneer Village Visitor Centre
Building Sub-Committee, Meeting H/84, April 4, 1984
FROM: Warren E. Jones, Secretary-Treasurer
RE FINANCING
Attached is a copy of a communication prepared by Mr. R.K. Cooper, which
your Committee had before it at the time of making your recommendation to the
Executive Committee to award the contract to Mitchell Construction Limited. The
revenue and expenditure figures have altered slightly since that time, as
follows
REVENUE
Member Municipalities $ 588,539
Wintario 530,000
Lottario 1,250,000
M.T.R.C. Foundation 1,183,000
Interest 66,542
$3,618,081
=========
EXPENDITURES
Mitchell Contract Price $3,239,839
Architect's fees 250,000
Building permit and miscellaneous 29,293
Additions to contract (estimated) 60,000
$3,579,132
=========
This would appear to leave a surplus of revenue over expenditures for completion
of the building without furnishings, etc. in the amount of $38,949. I am not as
optimistic as the architect appears to be that the additions to the contract can
be held at $60,000 or less
The three elements of financing associated with the Visitors Centre which
confront the Authority are as follows
1. Cash Flow required to Complete the Building Construction
The amount to be raised by The Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation
Foundation is $1,183,000. To date the Foundation has raised in cash
approximately $350,000. $244,500 of this amount was received from the McNair
Estate. This leaves an amount of approximately $833,000 to be raised. It is
true there are some pledges coming due during 1984, 1985 and 1986 totalling
$202,650 and to date these pledges have been paid as scheduled. There is
also the matter of $40,000 from the Estate of Russell G. Birrell and a
further amount of $205,500 from the McNair Estate, but there is no indication
as to when these will be paid.
As your Committee is aware, the building will be completed on or about
August 31, 1984, and the Authority could be short cash flow of as much as
$800,QOO, or as little as $500,000 depending on the success of the
Foundation.
2. Equipment, Furnishings, etc.
As you can see from the adjustments to the revenues and expenditures above,
little if anything is left for items required under this heading to put the
building in a "turn key" situation, i.e. ready to open to the public. There
are many items under this heading and, without detailing everything,
generally they are as follows .
kitchen equipment, smallwares, glasswares, cutlery, etc. , service road,
seating, display cases, desks, pool and skating rink, landscaping,
maintenance building, dumb waiter, equipping museum and hallways, etc
B-66
- 2 -
I have again been over these items with the architect and it appears, to do
. the job properly, approximately $1,100,000 to $1,250,000 will be required to
equip and furnish the building.
Discussions are on-going between members of the Authority and officials of
the Federal Government, concerning possible federal assistance from the
Department of Regional Industrial Expansion as it relates to the tourism
industry perspective.
3. Operating Costs
A staff report dated 1983.09.12 to the Executive Committee projected a net
loss in the amount of $131,000 for 1985. The following is quoted from the
report for your information:
"The revised revenue and expenses attributable to the Visitors Centre for
1985 are as follows:
I Additional Revenue 12ll
Admission $ 94,000
Food & Beverage 13,OilO
Merchandise Sales 28,000
Other 9,000
$144,000
Additional Expenses
Operation & maintenance $154,000
Marketing 10,000
Staff 79,000
Administration & general 10,000
Insurance 22,000
. .$275,000
.
Projected Net Loss ($131,000)"
While the above projections may be reasonably accurate, yet we must be
prepared to accommodate a greater loss because of the many variables in
operating the Village, such as weather, impact by other attractions,
additional cost generated by the Visitors Centre, and also in view of the
Village financial operating experience during the years 1979 to 1983, as
follows:
1979 - 4,777 deficit
1980 - 1,998 deficit
1981 - 3,098 surplus
1982 - 104,355 defici t
1983 - 79,820 defici t
It may be the Authority should give consideration to retaining consultants
with expertise in the field of operating costs. This is particularly so,
bearing in mind that the basis for the Staff Report was prepared by Deloitte,
Haskins & Sells Associates in June 1981.
Financinq Cash Flow to Complete Construction
The Authority has various funding sources which are itemized below:
(a) Accumulated Authority surplus $267,381
(b) Food Service Equipment Fund 162,604
(c) Levies on hand 153,926
$583,911
The use of these funds would have the following consequences:
Traditionally the fund balances and levies on hand have been used by the
Authority as working capital reserves during the first four months of the year
. when revenues, grants and levies are minimal. The availability of such funds has
reduced the extent of borrowing from the bank and, in fact, has contributed
substantially to interest earned which the Authority uses to reduce its general
levy requirements.
8-67
- - 3 -
The Authority surplus is in fact an accumulation, over the years since
inception, of the excess of funding over expenditures However, the Authority I
surplus mainly represents the carrying value of inventories at Kortright Centre,
Black Creek Pioneer Village Gift Shop and Central Stores, and is not cash in the
bank. The expenditure of Authority surplus would therefore involve further
borrowing from the bank.
The expenditure of the balance in the Food Service Equipment fund may put
additional pressure on the general levy in the event additional or replacement
equipment is required.
The expenditure of levies on hand would severely limit the Authority's
ability to make use of provincial funding which may, from time to time, become
available This is more of a reality today in that the rules governing the use
of the provincial share of land disposition proceeds have been relaxed. Also the
use of levies on hand would require municipal approval.
Foundation 1
On December 31, 1983 the Foundation had approximately $614,000 in assets.
These funds are ear-marked for various purposes as shown on the attached
statement The use of all or any of these funds would require a determination as
to the legality of same and, of course, approval of the Foundation.
RECOMMENDATIONS
l. THAT Authority and Foundation funds not be considered for financing the
Visitors Centre.
2. THAT, should additional funds not be forthcoming, your Committee request the
Executive Committee at the April 18 meeting to recommend to the Authority at
the May 11 meeting that negotiations be entered into with the Municipality of
Metropolitan Toronto for the funding required to complete construction, equip
and furnish the Black Creek Pioneer Village Visitors Centre.

SCHEDULE 11011
TO The Chairman and Members of BCPV Visitor Centre Sub-Committee
Meeting #2/84, Wednesday, April 18, 1984
I
FROM W A McLean, Acting General Manager
RE STAFF REPORT ON VISITOR CENTRE ALTERNATIVES
At the last meeting of the Building Sub-Committee a report outlining the status
of financing for the Black Creek Pioneer Village Visitor Centre was considered
The Building Sub-Committee has recommended in part to the Executive Committee
that
"Should additional funds not be forthcoming, the Executive Committee
recommend to the Authority on May 11, 1984, that negotiations be entered
into with other agencies for the funding required to complete construction,
and to equip and furnish the Black Creek Pioneer Village Visitor Centre "
Another report on the agenda for this meeting advises that the Metropolitan I
Toronto Council has adopted a resolution requesting their Management Services
Department to consult with the Authority and prepare a report on Pioneer Village
financing
The Authority has two alternatives in approaching the negotiations referred to in
the Building Sub-Committee recommendation and the consultations referred to in
the Metropolitan Toronto Council resolution. The first alternative is to
reaffirm the phased approach which the Authority has taken to building and
bringing the Visitor Centre into service The second alternative is to seek
sufficient funding to bring the building into full service at one time
(a) The Phased Approach
The original decision by the Authority was to build the Visitor Centre in
two phases The first phase housing basic needed services and the second
phase housing space for expansion of the basic services, and the
introduction of additional services which it was felt would enhance the
enjoyment of visitors to the year round use of Pioneer Village. When it was
determined that there would be substantial cost saving in building the
entire structure in one phase, and that substantial funding from Lottario
was available to enable the construction of the building in one phase, the
decision was made to build the entire building The funding available was
insufficient to bring all of the services for Phase I and Phase II into
operation upon completion of the building and the Authority was advised that
it would be necessary to seek additional funds for these and phase them in
as funds became available
(b) Completinq the Entire Facility in One Phase
I n the report considered by the Building Sub-Committee at its last meeting,
it was noted that in addition to the S3 6 million provided for in the
present phase, Sl,200,000 is required to complete the building and all of
the facilities envisaged in one stage If this approach was taken it would
require staff, funding and bringing into a serviceable condition, all
programs in one budget year
Staff has given consideration to the two alternatives and while there is a
certain attraction to being able to complete the job in one budget year, we are
of the opinion that it is in the best interest of the Authority to reaffirm the
phased approach, for the following reasons
(1) The Review of the Mandate and Organization of the Authority, which has just
recently been circulated to the municipalities and the Authority points out
that the Authority is in need of a stable funding base for the Black Creek
Pioneer Village and in view of Provincial grant policies which limit
Provincial funding support for the Black Creek Pioneer Village, that
municipalities will be required to give strong support The report also
recommends that the Authority prepare and provide the municipalities with a
three year Marketing Plan for the Village in order that the municipalities
can be informed as to the funding needs The provision of services in the
Visitor Centre are intimately tied to the Authority's Marketing Plan and the
Authority's negotiations and consultations should be tied into the three
year period recommended in the Review
(2 ) If funds are sought to complete the entire project in one phase it is most
probable that the entire sum will come from a public tax base, likely
a-Iv
- 2 -
municipal. By developing the Village itself in stages, as well as other
similar projects (Kortright), the Authority has been able to significantly
reduce the call on municipal taxes by making possible, donations from public
. spirited individuals and companies. A phased approach will continue this
opportunity in respect of the Visitor Centre, to the benefit of the
municipali ties. It is acknowledged that significant assistance from the tax
base will be required, but again a phased approach will ease this burden in
anyone year.
(3 ) In making the recommendation to the Authority that the entire building be
constructed but that certain facilities and services be phased in upon
completion of the building, it was recognized that the phasing would have an
advantage in terms of bringing a very large facility on stream. The new
facilities could be put into use in steps, allowing in each step, for the
facility to be completed and operating properly before moving on to the
next. Our assessment of operating costs envisaged this phased approach.
When the present phase of the building is complete the entire structure with the
fOllowing functions will be available for public use

RECOMMENDATION I
IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT the phased approach for the completion of the Black Creek
Pioneer Village Visitor Centre be reaffirmed and be the basis for negotiations for
funding sources for the project and;
IT IS FURTHER RECOMMENDED THAT the staff be directed to prepare a suggested
phasing program over a three year period, and identify the capital and operating
costs identified with each phase Basis for operating costs to be updated
information from the consultant and staff reports already prepared.

PURPOSE
I
The purpose of this project is to permit The Metropolitan Toronto and
Region Conservation Authority to exercise the powers afforded by The
Conservation Authorities Act, R.S.O. 1970, Chap. 78, as amended, to
establish and undertake, in the area over which it has jurisciction,
a program designed to further the conservation, restoration,
development and management of natural resources in accordance with
that portion of the Erosion and Sediment Control Program of the
Watershed Plan which addresses a remedial erosion control works
program. The project covers a two year period, from 1985 to 1986.
The goal of the Authority through this project is to minimize the
hazards of erosion to life and property within the Municipality of
Metropolitan Toronto and is a continuation of work undertaken initially
in Project W.C.-60 "Erosion Control and Bank Stabilization in
Metropolitan Toronto", commencing in 1974, the "Interim Water and
Related Land Management Project", 1977-1981, and the most recent
'Erosion Control and Slope Stabilization Project 1982-1984'.
To achieve its goal the Authority has defined the following objectives:
(a) to implement a program gf remedial works for the control
of erosion;
(b) to recognize the importance of the natural valley character in
the design of remedial works wherever feasible;
(c) to continue to update and augment the current state of the art
regarding erosion control in the Authority's jurisdiction. In
implementing this project, the Authority will maintain an
erosion inventory file and will annually update a "Pool of
Erosion Priority Sites".
This project will be carried out in accordance with the requirements
of The Environmental Assessment Act and addressed in The "Class
Environmental Assessment for Erosion and Sediment Control".

LOCATION AND DESCRIPTTON
.
This project addresses itself to those watercourses within The
Municipality of Metropolitan Toronto which generally drain in excess of
1300 hectares and where it will be the policy of the Authority to carry
out erosion control works
On watercourses draining less than 1300 hectares the provision of such
works will be the responsibility of the municipality Exceptions to this
may occur where it is determined by the Authority and the municipality
that specific watercourses, or sections thereof, due to their physical
characteristics, warrant inclusion within the Authority's
. responsibilities rigure 1 indicates the location of those watercourses
generally draining in excess of 1300 hectares where the Authority will be
involved in erosion control works under this project
The Municipality of Metropolitan Toronto is designated as the benefiting
municipality for works carried out under this project Metropolitan
Toronto may, however, pass on their share to the local municipality if it
feels that the work cannot be justified on a regional basis
In view of the large number of sites requiring erosion control and s~ope
l stabilization work throughout Metropolitan Toronto and in order to fairly
assess which sites should be considered for work, for any given work year;
the Authority carries out its remedial works program on a technical
priority basis Therefore, the sites which appear on our erosion
inventory list and which are deemed to be the most hazardous are
considered for remedial works first.
The Authority currently maintains information on approximately 150 active
erosion sites on those watecourses in Metropolitan Toronto draining
generally in excess of 1300 hectares rrom this information, the
Authority has formulated a wpool of Erosion Priority Sites" (see Table 1)
for the purpose of developing its remedial works program.
In preparing for the erosion protection work program, continued monitoring
and updating of the data base is important in order to keep abreast of
changing site conditions Because erosion is dynamic, priorities can
change from year to year and sometimes even after a single storm. The
process of reviewing and updating priorities must be continued not only to
make the system equitable but also to adjust annual funding requirements

In evaluating and assigning priorities for erosion control works, three
major factors are considered potential effect to structures, valley wall .
conditions and river action. The potential effect on structures is deemed
the most important and accordingly given more weight than the physical and
geological conditions associated with the other two factors Determining
the potential effect on structures involves a number of parameters
including the state of erosion, distance to structures and the number,
size and type of structure(s) affected Valley wall conditions includes
the height of valley wall, slope angle, vegetative cover, groundwater
characteristics and the soil type and composition River action, as a
factor, considers the present river alignment as well as the potential
cutting action.
The following criteria will also be followed in carrying out erosion
control works
(a) For the purposes of ~rosion protection works, design blocks
shall be established and works undertaken on a design block
basis Design blocks shall be of a size to be technically and
economically feasible
(b) Where erosion protection work is proposed on private land,
the Authority shall require title to the land or an easement
where applicable and/or require a suitable financial contri~u-
tion from the benefiting owner(s)
(c) Erosion protection works will be analyzed on the basis of
cost/benefit, with acquisition cost being used as a principal
determining factor
Cd) Design criteria for erosion protection works are dependent
upon the nature of each specific problem Generally two types
of problems exist, the first and less common type, involves a
bank or valley wall instability in which slumping or major
rotational failure is involved due to inherent soil conditions
or overloading of the bank The more common type of problem
involves the river in coincidence with the valley wall.
Wherever possible, erosion control work shall be designed to
_ accommodate the 100 year flood for the 'coincident case'
_ accommodate the 10 year flow, in all other cases as a
minimum, based on the ultimate development of the watershed
_ permit channel overtopping with minimal danger to the
remedial work
.
_ decrease the velocity of the stream by flattening the
hydraulic gradient and minimizing the flow energy - by
incorporating meanders and/or controlled drop structures .
a-88
- 5 -
(e) In the design of all protection works, the Authority shall be
. cognizant of the natural surroundings and shall endeavour to
provide ancillary benefits, where appropriate.
(n Works shall be carried out in accordance with the requirements
of The Environmental Assessment Act and addressed in the "Class
Environmental Assessment for Erosion and Sediment Control"
Examples of a typical erosion problem and a typical remedial works
solution are shown in Figure 2 and 3. These figures also serve to
graphically illustrate some of the preceding criteria.
I The Authority ~ill develop a year~y program of erosion control works .
utilizing the "Pool of Erosion Priority Sites" to the limits of the "
approved annual funding allocation and in accordance with the criteria
developed for such work. Specific sites will be reviewed on an
annual basis and, to permit response to changes in priorities, work
will not be projected beyond a one year period In any year,
protection will be provided to those sites of highest priority which
satisfy the criteria established to the limit of the $500,000 identified
as the annual funding required within The Municipality of Metropolitan
Toronto

Conservation Authorities Act, R S.O 1910, Chap 18, as amended, to
establish and undertake, in the area over which it has jurisdiction,
a program designed to further the conservation, restoration,
development and management of natural resources in accordance with
that portion of the Erosion and Sediment Control Program of the
Watershed Plan which addresses a remedial erosion control works
program The project covers a two year period, from 1985 to 1986
The goal of the Authority through this project is to minimize the
hazards of erosion to life and property within The Regional Municipality
of Peel and is a continuation of work undertaken initially in the
"Interim Water and Related Land Management Project", 1977-1981, and

tOCTION AND DESCRIPTION
.
This project addresses itself to those watercourses within The
Regional Municipality of Peel which generally drain in excess of
1300 hectares and where it will be the policy of the Authority to
carry out erosion control works
On Watercourses draining less that 1300 hectares the provision of
such works will be the responsibility of the municipality
Exceptions to this may occur where it is determined by the Authority
and the municipality that specific watercourses, or sections thereof,
due to their physical characteristics, warrant inclusion within the
Authority's responsiblities. Figure 1 indicates the location of
I those watercouses generally draining in excess of 1300 hectares
where the Authority will be involved in erosion control works under
this project
The Regional Municipality of Peel is designated as the benefiting
municipality for works carried out under this project The regional
municipality may however choose to pass on their share to the local
municipality and the Authority will provide the necessary information
annually should this occur
.
In view of the number of sites requiring erosion control and slope
stabilization work throughout the Regional Municipality of Peel and in
order to fairly assess which sites should be considered for work, fur
any given work year; the Authority carries out its remedial works
program on a technical priority basis. Therefore, the sites which
appear on our erosion inventory list and which are deemed to be the
most hazardous are considered for remedial works first
The Authority currently maintains information on active erosion sites
on those watercourses in the Region of Peel draining generally in
excess of 1300 hectares From this information, the Authority has
formulated a "Pool of Erosion Priority Sites" (see Table 1) for the
purpose of developing its remedial works program.
In preparing for the erosion protection work program, continued
monitoring and updating of the data base is important in order to
keep abreast of changing site conditons Because erosion is dynamic,
priorities can change from year to year and sometimes even after a
single storm The process of reviewing and updating priorities must
be continued not only to make the system equitable but also to adjust
annual funding requirements

. The following criteria will also be followed in carrying out erosion
G
control works:
(a) For the purposes of erosion protection works, design blocks
shall be established and works undertaken on a design block
basis. Design blocks shall be of a size to be technically and
economically feasible.
(bl Where erosion protection work is proposed on private land,
the Authority shall require title to the land or an easement
. where applicable and/or require a suitable financial contribu-
tion from the benefiting owner(s).
(c) Erosion protection works will be analyzed on the basis of
cost/benefit, with acquisition cost being used as a principal
determining factor.
(d) Design criteria for erosion protection works are dependent
upon the nature of each specific problem. Generally two types
of problems exist, the first and less common type, involves a
bank of valley wall instability in which slumping or major
rotational failure is involved due to inherent soil conditions
or overloading of the bank. The more common type of problem
involves the river in coincidence with the valley wall.
Wherever possible, erosion control work shall be designed to:
- accommodate the 100 year flood for the · coincident case.'
- accommodate the 10 year flow, in all other cases as a
minimum, based on the ultimate development of the watershed
- permit channel overtopping with minimal danger to the
remedial work
'- - decrease the velocity of the stream by flattening the
hydraulic gradient and minimizing the flow energy - by
incorporating meanders and/or controlled drop structures.

PURPOSE
The purpose of this project is to permit The Metropolitan Toronto and
Region Conservation Authority to exercise the powers afforded by The
Conservation Authorities Act, R.S.O. 1970, Chap. 78, as amended, to
establish and undertake, in the area over which it has jurisdictionr
a program designed to further the conservation, restoration,
development and management of natural resources in accordance with
that portion of the Erosion and Sediment Control Program of the
Watershed Plan which addresses a remedial erosion control works
program. The project covers a two year period, from 1985 to 1986.
The goal of the Authority through this project is to minimize the
hazards of erosion to life and property within the Regional
Municipality of York and is a continuation of work undertaken initially
in the "Interim Water and Related Land Management Project", 1977-l98l,
and the subsequent 'Erosion Control and Slope Stabilization Project
for the Regional Municipality of York 1982-l984'.
To achieve its goal the Authority has defined the following objectives
(a) to implement a program of remedial works for the control
of erosion;
(b) to recognize the importance of the natural valley character in
the design of remedial works wherever feasible;
(c) to continue to update and augment the current state of the art
regarding erosion control in the Authority's juriSdiction. In
implementing this project, the Authority will maintain an erosion
inventory file and will annually update a "Pool of Erosion Priority
Sites".
This project will be carried out in accordance with the requirements
of The Environmental Assessment Act and addressed in The "Class
Environmental Assessment for Erosion and Sediment Control".

. LOCATION AND DESCRIPTION
This p~oject addresses itself to those watercourses within The
Regional Municipality of York which generally drain in excess of
l300 hectares and where it will be the policy of the Authority to
carry out erosion control works.
On Watercourses draining less than l300 hectares the provision of
such works will be the responsibility of the municipality.
Exceptions to this may occur where it is determined by the Authority
and the municipality that specific watercourses, or sections thereof,
. due to their physical characteristics, warrant inclusion within the
Authority's responsibilities. Figure 1 indicates the location of
those watercourses generally draining in excess of l300 hectares
where the Authority will be involved in erosion control works under
this project.
The Regional Municipality of York is designated as the benefiting
municipality for works carried out under this project.
In view of the number of sites requiring erosion control and slope
. stabilization work throughout the Regional Municipality of York
and in order to fairly assess which sites should be considered for
work, for any given work year; the Authority carries out its remedial
works program on a technical priority basis. Therefore, the sites which
appear on our erosion inventory list and which are deemed to be the
most hazardous are considered for remedial works first.
The Authority currently maintains information on active erosion sites
on those watercourses in the Region of York draining generally in
excess of l300 hectares. From this information, the Authority has
formulated a "Pool of Erosion Priority Sites" (see Table l) for the
purpose of developing its remedial works program.
In preparing for the erosion protection work program, continued
monitoring and updating of the data base is important in order to
keep abreast of changing site conditions. Because erosion is dynamic,
priorities can change from year to year and sometimes even after a
single storm. The process of reviewing and updating priorities must
be continued not only to make the system equitable but also to adjust
annual funding requirements.
In evaluating and assigning priorities for erosion control works,
three major factors are considered potential effect to structures,
valley wall conditions and river action. The potential effect on

. structures is deemed the most important and accordingly given more
weight than the physical and geological conditions associated with
the other two factors. Determining the potential effect on
structures involves a number of parameters including the state of
erosion, distance to structures and the number, size and type of
structure(s) affected. Valley wall conditions includes the height
of valley wall, slope angle, vegetative cover, groundwater
characteristics and the soil type and composition. River action,
as a factor, considers the present river alignment as well as the
potential cutting action.
I The following criteria will also be followed in carrying our erosion
control works:
(a) For the purp,oses of erosion protection works, design blocks
shall be established and works undertaken on a design block
basis. Design blocks shall be of a size to be technically and
economically feasible.
(b) Where erosion protection work is proposed on private land,
the Authority shall require title to the land or an easement
. where applicable and/or require a suitable financial contribu-
tion from the benefiting owner(s).
(c) Erosion protection works will be analyzed on the basis of
cost/benefit, with acquisition cost being used is a principal
determining factor
(d) Design criteria for erosion protection works are dependent
upon the nature of each specific problem Generally two types
of problems exist, the fi rst and less common type, involves a
bank or valley wall instability in which slumping or major
rotational fa ilure is involved due to inherent soil conditions
or overloading of the bank. The more common type of problem
involves the ri ver in coincidence with the valley wall.
Wherever possible, erosion control work shall be desinged to
- accommodate the lOO year flood for the 'coincident case'
- accommodate the 10 year flow, in all other cases as a
minimum, based on the ultimate development of the watershed
- permit channel overtopping with minimal danger to the
remedial work
- decrease the velocity of the stream by flattening the
hydraulic gradient and minimizing the flow energy - by

4.0 SUMMARY OF RECOHMEND~TIONS
Flood Plain Definition
1. The Committee recommends that the Regulatory Flood used to
designate Plood Plains in Ontario be the IOO-Year Flood and
will be defined by the water elevation having a return
period of 100 years.
2. The Committee recommends that consideration be given to
permitting the maintenance of a ~igher criteria, where
already adopted, subject to a full public review and
referral of this criteria to an appropriate hearing
tribunal.
3. The Committee recommends that all development within the
flood plain be permitted anywhere within the flood plain
subject to development being controlled both from
structural integrity during a flood as well as for the
potential to decrease channel capacity or channel storage.
The flood plain shall include all land below the water
elevations of the regulatory flood.
4. Structures below the high water elevation will be designed--
to be structurally stable and to provide a safe refuge from
water flows at the control elevation.
s. The Committee recommends that the analyses of the flood
plain include the definition of the floodway required for
the passage of flood waters associated with the lOO-year
flood.
6. The Committee recommends that a freeboard be established in
the definition of the Regulatory Plood level subject to
further research being carried out.

Two-Zone Concept
7. The committee recommends that the Two-Zone concept be
abandoned in favour of an approach whereby all areas within
, the flood plain as defined by the Regulatory Flood would be
considered as a conditional development area.
Special Policy Areas
. B. The Committee recommends that further use of Special Policy
Area designation be deferred until the implications of the
new Regulatory Flood and the recommendations on conditional
development can be assessed.
Responsibility for Implementation
9. The Committee recommends that the primary responsibility
for the implementation of flood plain management policies
. will be through the local municipalities under the new
Planning Act.
Modification to the Conservation Authorities Act
10. The Committee recommends that the necessary modifications
be made to the Conservation Authorities Act and other
relevant legislation to effect the transfer of responsi-
bility for the implementation of flood plain management -
policies from the Conservation Authorities to the local
government.
11. The Committee recommends that consideration be given to
amending the Conservation huthorities Act, to alter the
powers of Conservation Authorities so that these bodies
become advisors to participating local municipalities in
the administration of the watershed.

! Municipal Official Plans
12. The Committee recommends that municipal Official Plans
include policies in accordance with the appropriate section
of the new Planning Act to the effect that site plan
control provisions will be extended to embrace those areas
defined by the elevational line of the Regulatory Flood.
Amendment may also have to be made to the existing
legislation. ,
13. The Committee recommends that policies be incorporated in
the Municipal Official Plan which extend site plan control
to include lands currently designated by fill and
construction regulations.

FINANCIAL COMMENTS
The budget for the Humber Mouth Weir was increased by $40,000 by
reallocating funds from Metro Erosion Anticipated fund ing from the
F'rovince and the Federal Government under the Flood Plain Mapping Review
Program were not realized and therefore this activity has been eliminated
for 1984
PROGRESS REVIEW
Regular maintenance of Authority Water Control Structures and the
Operation and Maintenance of the Dams and Flood Warning System has been
carried out
The majority of the funds expended in Bolton Project to date has been the
payment of the holdback due under the contract The balance will be
expended on final restoration, which will be carried out this Spring
Terms of Reference and final engineering for the Pickering/Ajax and
Goodwood Projects are in progress
Construction on the Humber Mouth Weir is to begin very soon

FINANCIAL COMMENTS
Expenditures and revenues for the first quarter of 1984 are in line with
budget estimates and are on target for normal winter operation.
Attendance is significantly ahead of 1983 due to a complete lack of winter
operation last year. This year, January attendance was very good, loss of
snow cover in February eliminated most Area activities while March
attendance was about normal
.
~-!q~
PROGRESS REVIEW
During this period, six Conservation Areas and two Forest and Wildlife
Areas were open for winter recreation activities. The Albion Hills and
Bruce's Mill cross-country ski programs were well attended by the general
public on weekends during the first six weeks. Despite the loss of snow
during the last half of February, the group program operated successfully
at both areas. In Albion Hills, 3r173 students participated in the I
program, and l,470 in the Bruce's Mill program.
The Bruce's Mill Maple Syrup Demonstration was started two weeks early on
the last weekend of February in an attempt to take advantage of the mild
weather conditions. Unfortunately, weekend weather did not cooperate and
attendance was poor. Conditions were ideal for sap production during late
March and the demonstration operated successfully and was well attended.
The school tour part of the program had 4,707 participants, an increase of

Financial Comments
Vacation and Sick Pay transferred to Supervision from Administration for 1984.
This figure is inflated by the retirement settlement of a Senior Secretary. This
year's figures are reflecting the cost of the Promotion Officer's activities
which did not commence until after June in 1983.
Building Activities in 1984 include Doctor's House and Flynn which were charged
to the C.O.E.D. program last year. Also individual building costs charged in
Building Activities are now included under "Other".
Apart from the Vacation and Sick Pay account transfer, expenses are running at or
below last year.
Although the Village opened a week earlier this year, revenues from admissions
and house sales are down from last year. Gift Shop sales are above 1983 and also
at a higher percentage of budget.
Progress Review
Promotions Officer fully engaged in Operations. Full program of special events
with many new items, prepared and in place.,
Due to lack of funds and a negative response from Canada Works, five buildings
. cannot be opened and two are open on a temporary basis.

B-192
TO: Chairman and Members of the Executive Committee
I
FROM: Acting General Manager
RE: Review of the Metropolitan Toronto and Region
Conservation Authority, February, 1984
DATE: June 13th, 1984
In mid-March 1984 the report of the above noted Review was
circulated to all members of the Authority. It was
simultaneously circulated to the Authority's member
municipalities and the Province of Ontario. The report was
prepared at the request of the Authority, by a Policy Steering
Committee comprising three members of the Authority, the Chairmen
of the regional municipalities, the Chairman of Metropolitan
Toronto and the Assistant Deputy Minister, Southern Ontario,
Ministry of Natural Resources, on the advice of ~ Technical
Steering Committee comprising representation from the same
agencies. The report contains 31 recommendations dealing with
the Authority's organization and mandate.
The Authority is in receipt of resolutions from all member
municipalities making their comments and recommendations
concerning the Review. These responses from the municipalities
are attached as Appendix A to this report.
The method of conducting the Review, which involved all
participants at both the policy and technical level, and a
substantial number of interviews with persons and agencies
associated with the Authority, has assured that the
recommendations made in the report represent a firm body of
supportive opinion. The Authority is dependant upon the
confidence and support of its member municipalities and their
general support for the majority of the recommendations in the
report is a most important factor for the Authority in its
consideration of the recommendations.
.
.

.
My report to the Authority members on the Review will deal only
with the recommendations and the comments made by municipalities.
I will not be dealing with the text of the report. Members
should refer to the full text for the context in which the
recommendations were made.
The recommendations fall into three categories: mandate,
organization, and funding.
I
A. REVIEW RECOMMENDATIONS DEALING WITH MANDATE
1. The Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Authority
remain as a statutory corpo'rate body under the Conservation
A~thorities Act.
. 2. The Regional Municipalities and Metropolitan Toronto, which
.
comprise the Authority, seriously consider increasing their
municipal financial contributions as outlined elsewhere in
this report, in order to permit the Authority to achieve the
important objectives which will directly benefit these
municipalities in the future.
3. No change in the existing boundaries of the MTRCA should be
made..
4. The existing mandate of the- MTRCA remain for the ten program
objectives i,n which it is already involved.. This mandate
should not be expanded without the- concurrence of the
Province- for "core" programs and the municipalities for any
programs which are II non-core" and wh.ich. require funding,
support from munic'ipalities:..

I
5. In recreation and waterfront development, the Authority's
objectives shall have regard to the objectives of affected
Metropolitan or Regional municipalities.
6. Heritage programs administered and developed by the
Authority be compatible with the goals and objectives of the
metropolitan or regional municipality in whose area the
heritage project is located.
7. Major educational bodies should continue to use Authority
lands and the educational programs administered by the MTRCA
be set in consultation with these bodies. Funding of these
educational programs remain on the basis of cost recovery
from school boards as is now the case.
8. Outside of Metropolitan Toronto, the 'use of MTRCA lands by
municipalities be encouraged, provided such lands are used
for purposes not in conflict with MTRCA objectives. Where
such use is contemplated, it be on the basis of a token
lease-back arrangement in order to ensure MTRCA retains
ownership in the land. Any recreational development in
connection with the leased lands be at the cost of the local
municipality, and the Province be requested to outline a set
of permitted uses on these lands rather than direct where
municipal money might be spent.
COMMENT
All municipalities concurred in support of the recommendations
dealing with mandate. The Regional Municipality of Peel, in
addition, recommended that the ten program objectives in which
the Authority is arready involved, be expanded to include water
quality.

COMMENT
With respect to recommendation lO(a), the Regional Municipality
ot Durham recommended that when the Province permits the
Authority to elect its own Chairman, that should that Chairman
come from Metropolitan Toronto, the Vice-Chairman should come
from one of the regional municipalities and vice versa. This is
a matter that should be considered at such time as the Province
may permit the Authority to elect its own Chairman. With respect
to recommenpation 12 the Regional Municipality of Peel and the ,
Townships of Mono and Ajala recommended that the Townships of
Mono and Adjala appoint their representative to the Authority as
provided for in the Conservation Authorities Act. This would
have the effect of raising the number of members in the revised
Authority from 29 to 31 because Metropolitan Toronto would get an
additional member to match the total of the municipalities
outside Metropolitan Toronto. There was a rationale for having
all members of the Authority being representatives of regional
municipalities in that such a large proportion of the Authority
afea is governed by regional municipalities that the municipal
side of the Authority work was in fact a federation of regional
municipalities. This fact not withstanding" the Townships of .
B-.l~~
- 8 -
Mono and Ajala represent an important part of the headwaters of
. the Humber River, and they should remain a part of the Authority.
If they are a part of the Authority they are entitled to
representation. This is in keeping with the accountability
principle which the Review espouses. The Authority should
support the representation for Mono and Ajala as provided for in
the Conservation Authorities Act.
All municipalities with the exception of Durham, Mono and Ajala
I commented on recommendation 13, dealing with the appointment of
members to the Authority. The regional municipalities of Peel
and York agreed that,
-appointments be made by each Region and Metro in
accordance with its own standards and the term of
the appointment be consistent with the policies of
the Regional or Metropolitan Councils.'.
, All other municipalities supported the recommendatio~s for the
Executive Committee.
Metropolitan Toronto went one step further and specified the
standards by which its appointments would be made. Positions
taken by Peel, York, and Metro are consistent with the
Conservation Authorities Act, and in fact, leave the question of
the appointment of members to the Authority to the discretion of
the municipal councils. The Authority should support this
.
position.
With respect to rec'ommendat.ion 15, dea~ing with the Executive,
Committee, the Region of Peel took the position,
"that the Region of peel does not support the
continuation of a Metropol.itan' Toronto and Regional ,
Conservation Authority executiv~ Commdttee~.
The: Conservation Authorities: Act makes, three references to the-
Executive- Committee:- Section 19-1,
.
."-the- Authority may apPo'int a,n e-xecutive' Commi,ttee
from among the members- of the- Auth'ority..'..
B-200

I
Section 30-.1, subject to the approval of the Minlster,
"an Authority shall make regulations, (d) , delegating
all or any of its powers to the Executive Committee
except: ( 1 ) determination of the services of the
Secretary-Treasurer, ( 2) the power to raise money,
and ( 3 ) the power to enter into contracts or
agreements other than such contracts or agreements
as are necessarily incidental to the works approved
by the Authority".
Finally, Section 28-3,
"before refusing permission required under a regulation
made under clause l(b) ( e) or ( f) , the Authority, or
where the power to issue permission has been delegated
to its Executive Committee, the Executive Committee
shall hold a hearing to which the applicant shall be
a party".
-
This is in connection with the Fill and Flood Plain Regulations.
If there is no Executive Committee the matter of hearing and
appeal under the Fill and Flood Plain Regulations would have to
be dealt with by the full Authority. Thirty-one members is a
large number to function without an Executive Committee.
There is, however, reason to be concerned that there will be some
duplication between the functions of the proposed Finance and
Administration Standing Committee and the Executive Committee.
This will be particularly evident in areas of Personnel and
Budgets.
The Minister of Natural Resources, in a statement to the
legislature, dealing with flood plain management in Ontario on
Thursday, March 29, 1984, indicated as follows,
"also in the near future I will be discussing with
Conservation Authorities a more active involvement
of all Authority members in the decisions related to
their ongoing operations. This process will ensure
that through their appointed representatives all
member municipalities will actively participate in
the Authori ty" . .
8-201
- 10 -
. "I have noted in recent years that several Authorities
have moved away from having their Executive Committees
as the main decision-making body. I will be
encouraging other Authorities to pursue this same
approach where it is feasible".
In the matter of regulation administration the only alternative
to the Executive Committee under the Conservation Authorities Act
is the full Authority.
I An Authority re-organized along the lines of the Review
recommendations, were it not for its size and the question of
regulations, could operate without an Executive Committee.
Until such time as the Minister may make it clear what form of
encouragement he intends to offer to Authorities to remove
Executive Committees as the main decision-making body with
respect to regulations, it is considered that the Authority will
, be best served if it continues with an Executive Committee.
.
established as set out in recommendation 15. Because of the
uncertainty as to the Minister's intentions and the expected
duplication between the proposed Finance and Administration
Standing Committee and the Executive Committee, this question
should be re-examined at such time as the Minister makes his
intentions clear, but in not more than two years. The Minister
should also ensure that in amending the basis for membership of
the Authority, that the size will not increase as the population
grows.
Consistent with its recommendation that it does not support an
Executive Committee, the Region of Peel made. additional ,c,omments
concerning other recommendations which involved the Executive
Committee.

c. REVIEW RECOMMENDATIONS DEALING WITH FINANCING
20. The Province be requested to increase its funding of core
programs from the present 55% support to 60%. Core
programs are defined as-
- Flood Control
~ - Erosion and Sediment Control
- Storm Water Management
- Land Acquisition
- Conservation Land Management
- Shoreline Management
21. The Authority not include for consideration of the
Authority Board any development or other work ln its core
I
programs without, in the first instance, receiving the firm
comments from the Regional or Metropolitan governments in
whose geographical area the proposed work is to be .
undertaken.
22. All future watershed recreation programs on Conservation
lands ln the first instance receive the approval of the
> Regional governmept affected betore being placed in the
Authority plans~ provincial approval be deemed to be
satisfied where programs meet present guidelines for
permitted use as established by the Minister of Natural
Resources~
~
-204
- 13 -
23. The Authority negotiate with the Metropolitan and Regional
governments to achieve a funding formula for watershed
recreation development based on:
- Province continuing to contribute as in the past.
- The benefitting municipal governments share the
development costs of each project on a discounted
equalized assessment basis.
24. The Authority negotiate with the Metropolitan and Regional
governments a funding tormula tor maintenance and operations
of watershed recreation programs based on:
- Province continuing to pay its traditional share.
- Contribution towards assigned costs of facilities and
sites by Metropolitan Toronto and the Region, within
which the facilities and sites are located, be on the
basis of per capita use by their respective residents;
and the balance of costs be funded through the MTRCA
municipal levy.
25. Agreements on an inter-municipal basis with respect to 24
above be negotiated between the Authority, the Regions and
Metropolitan Toronto under a 5 year phase-in principle,
which ensures the per capita contribution is reached by no
later than 5 years.
26. The Authority contract with the Province, Metro and Durham
for waterfront development to be tunded on the basis of:
- Province maintain at least its existing level of
contribution in dollar terms.
~
B-205
- 14 - .
. _ The Metropolitan government increase its contribution
to waterfront projects in Metropolitan Toronto in
accordance with the need ot the Metropolitan Council,
at no less than a 60% funding level.
_ Waterfront projects development in the Durham Region be

municipal agreement to be negotiated between Durham and
I Metro.
- The Regions of Peel ana York not contribute to MTRCA
waterfront development.
27. Each Regional government individually fund the municipal
share of Heritage project located in their regions.
, .
- 28. Metropolitan Toronto fund the entire municipal share of

Ministry of Natural Resources ana in addition, seeks funding
from the Government of Canada.
.
29. In matters of eaucation, the Authority continue to make its
assets available for the use of school boards, provided the
boards continue to fund these programs as in the past.
30. The Authority develop a 3 year program for submission with
its 1985 budget covering all aspects of education, marketing
and community relations.
.
B-206
- 15 -
COMMENT I
The municipalities reaction to the funding recommendations was
varied according to the effect that the recommendations were
expected to have on the municipalities. Metropolitan Toronto
indicated its interest in accelerating waterfront development
within Metropolitan Toronto and adopted a recommendation to
enrich the municipal portion of waterfront spending, provided the
provincial contribution did not decrease. Metropolitan Toronto
expressed concern with the inadequate funding arrangements for
Black Creek Pioneer village: the management of the Village:
indicated its willingness to be the sole municipal funder of the
Village: and directed its management services staff to consult
with the Authority and prepare a report on financing of the
Village for consideration of Metro's Budget Sub-Committee. The
Region of Peel, on the other hand, took the position that
"the Region of Peel is strongly of the opinion that
all municipalities in the watershed benefit from
Black Creek Pioneer Village and that the cost should
be shared by all municipalities in the Metropolitan
Toronto and Region Conservation Authority watershed".
Peel's corollary to this recommendation was that all
municipalities work with the Authority to seek additional funding
from the Ministries of the provincial government for the village.
The Regional Municipality of York concurred in the financial .
recommendations. The Regional Municipality of Durham for sees
substantially increased costs for Durham and did not concur in
recommendations 23, 24, 25, and 26, but did recognize the need
for change in funding arrangements and resol~ed that Durham
"stands prepared to enter into negotiations with
the other parties in the Metropolitan Toronto and
Region Conservation Authority to discuss some
changes in funding arrangements. Before doing so,
however, the Region must be in a position to
analyze the long-term capital spending 9rogram of
MTRCA and financial implications to the Region of
Durham".
.
B-20 7
- 16 -
All municipalities concurred in the process recommendations 20,
. The principles set out in the process
21, 22, 29, and 30.
recommendations are important-
- The Province is requested to increase both the dollar
value and proportionate share it pays towards core programs.
_ The Authority would receive the firm comments from the Regional
or Metropolitan governments affected before considering
I projects for core programs.
~
_ The approval of the Regional governments affected would be
required before recreation programs are included in Authority
plans.
- The Authority would continue to make its assets available to
. Boards of Education for outdoor learning opportunities and
these progF9ms would be operated on a cost-recovery basis as in
the past.
_ The Authority would develop a three year program for financing
its proposed education, marketing, and community relations
programs.
I All of these are important to a sound relationship between the
Authority and its member municipalities and the Authority should
concur in them.
The municipal portion of financing Authority work is based on the
principle of municipalities contributing in proportion to the
benefit which the Authority determines they will recieve. The
Conse,rva,tion Authorities Act requires an Authori ty to determine
bene,fit. Section 2.5: ( i) ,
;:...-
~when an Authority has determined the proportion of .
.
the total benefit of any project afforded to all
8-208
- 17 -
I
the participating municipalities that is affored to
each of them, it shall cause a notice containing a
statement of such apportionment to be sent to the
Council of each participating municipality by
registered mail, ( i i) any Municipal Council that
is dissatisfied with any such apportlonment may
within thirty (30) days after it received notice of
the apportionment, notify the Secretary of the
Ontario Municipal Board and the Authority, in
writing by registered mail, that it applies for a
review of the apportionment by the Ontario Municipal
Board .. .
Over the years the Authority has generally used one of two
formulas for determining benefit. For general conservation work
(education, recreation, conservation services, administration,
flood warning and similar generally applied programs) the
Authority has apportioned benefit to the municipalities on the
basis of the municipality.s equalized assessment. For certain
capital works where benefit accrues to a single municipality the
Authority has named that municipality as the benefiting
municipality. Only in the waterfront program has the Authority
varied from these two formulas. On the waterfront, Metropolitan
Toronto and Durham have been assigned 95% of the municipal
benefit and Peel and York have been assigned 5% of the municipal
benefit. This approach has served the Authority and the
municipalities well. In twenty-seven years only on three
occasions has it been necessary for the Ontario Municipal Board
.
to arbitrate an apportionment.
The Review, however, revealed that if the proportionate use of
conservation areas by residents of member municipalites was the
criterion for determining benefitr then the present forumla would
be inequitable.
.
6-209
- 18 -
t
Drawing on a recommendation made by the Robarts Commission, the
Review also concluded that Heritage projects of the Authority
should be the responsibility of the municipalities in which they
are located. For local museums and historical sites, this is a
sound principal. Based on origin of user statistics, a case for
inter-regional benefit of Pioneer Village could be made. The
Village itself is a collection of buildings and artifacts which
come from allover southern Ontario.
I
,
Recommendations 23 through 28 require the Authority to carry out
its responsibility to,
"determine the proportion of the total benefit of
any project afforded to all the participating
municipalities that is afforded to each of them",
I by negotiating with its member municipalities to achieve funding
.
formulas for its various facilities which are considered
equitable and supportable. This the Authority sh~uld readily
agree to do.
AUTHORITY RECOMMENDATIONS
I IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT the Authority concur in the principles set
out in recommendations 21, 22, 29, and 30 as follows:
_ The Province is requested. to increase both the' dollar value
and, proportionate: share it pays, towards cora programs..
_ The Authority would receive the fir.m comments from' the
Regiona~ or Metropolitan governments, affected before
consider'inq projects: for core- programs.-
, -
_ The- approval of the Regional governments affected would be.
.
required before, recreation programs are inc~uded in Authority
plans'.

- 19 -
I
- The Authority would continue to make its assets available to
Boards of Education for outdoor learning opportunities and
these programs would be operated on a cost-recovery basis as
in the past.
- The Authority would develop a three year program for financing
its proposed education, marketing, and community relations
programs.
IT IS FURTHER RECOMMENDED THAT the Authority concur in the
intent of recommendations 23 through 28 that there is a need to
review the basis on which benefit is determined for the
Authority's Watershed Recreation Programs and the Black Creek
pioneer village, and that in this connection that the staff be
directed to consult with the member municipalities with respect
to recreation and heritage programs which are compatible with the
aims and objectives of the municipalities, which the Authority
might undertake, and that the Authority agree to negotiate with
member municipalities with respect to appropriate designation of
benefit and the apportionment of costs with respect to such
programs.
IT IS FURTHER RECOMMENDED THAT the Authority concur in
recommendations 29 and 30.
.
D. IMPLEMENTATION
All of the recommendations in the Review Report which require
immediate implementation can be achieved by the Authority acting
itself, with respect to organlzation and negotiating with the
Province of Ontario and member municipalities, with respect to
financing, save and except the recommendations dealing with the
reduction of the number of members of the Authority, the
.
B-211
- 20 -
~
appointment of the Authority Chairman, the removal of the
Chairman's second and deciding vote, and the quorum requirements.
Of these, provincial action to give effect to the reduction of
the number of members of the Authority, is the only one that is
immediately required.
AUTHORITY RECOMMENDATIONS
I
In this regard, it is recommended that the Authority concur in
recommendation 31 of the Review of the Metropolitan Toronto and
Region Conservation Authority, as follows:
.as a matter of priority, the Ministry of Natural
Resources be requested to take such action as is
necessary to give effect to the proposed changes in
the Authority membership, and to expedite such
, approvals as may be required to ensure the Committee
structure of the Board and other items can be
implemented as soon as possible-.
SUMMARY RECOMMENDATION
IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT the Staff Report on the -Review of th&
Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Authority.' be
received, and the recommendations contained therein be adopted,
and further in this connection" that the Minister of Natural
Resources and the Councils of th& member municipalities be' so
advised.

REVIEW OF THE METROPOLITAN TORONTO
AND REGION CONSERVATION AUTHORITY.
The Parks. Recreation and Properly Committee submits the following report
(March 21,1984) from the Chief Administrative Officer:
Background
1. The review was forwarded to all members of Council on March 15, 1984. It originated
from discussions held between the Metropolitan Chairman, Chairmen of the Regions of Peel,
I York and Durham, the Chairman of the M.T.:!:tC.A. aJ.ld tha Executi"re Committee of the
Authority
2. For reference purposes, the following excerpts from parag~aphs in the Letter of
Transmittal are ofinterest:
"The review involved extensive consultations with members and staff
of the Authority, the Ministry of Natural Resources, various
departments of Metro, the Regional municipalities, and some
.organizations such as school boards, which make use of Authority
l?f'Ograms... "
, "U is impertant to note that this is a stat! report which, at this time, has
not been approved formally by the M.T.R.C.A.., any Regional
government, the Metropolitan government nor the Ministry of Natural
Resources. However, it is equally important to note it is a consensus
document, which the Policy Steering Committee mentioned above and
the Regional and Metro Chairmen have discussed.....
3. During the progress.ofthe review, to ensure adequate participation by the appropriate
Metropolitan staff, all draft reports were discussed in detail with the Commissioners of
Planning, Parks and Property and Management Services. Most of the detail work fell to the
Director of Operational Support in my office. As the Metropolitan Chairman and Controller
I W Sutherland \Vere on the Policy Steering Committee, the resultant report has received both
political and staff'input.
Comments
4- Some 31 recommendations, are contained in the report and most are self. explanatory
Rather than explain each, one . this can be done verbally at the Committee if it is the
Committee!s wish. there are some points which deserve elaboration.
5. The- review recommended. a reduction in the size of the Authority Board from 53 to 29
members. The changes to the Board, to the power and structure of the Executive Committee
and the Advisory BoardS (Standing Committees) cannot be made- withou.t Provincial
approvaL From various,' meetings at. the political and staff levels. my understanding is that.
the Province is willing to make- the changes providing. there is general consensus from Metro
and the sUI'!'ounding Regions. The- Authority Executive do not seriously object t9 the
reduction in size but, for understandable reasons, they believe that appointments to the
. Authority should not be-restricted to elected officials. Particular concern has been expressed:
by some, Authority Executive' Committel!'- members' at the poor" attendance- of Metr.o elected
officials. Tne reportanswers:thes&comments on pages 47 and 48.
.
B-2J:8 -2-
ASliuminK there IS acceptance of the concept that all mUnLcipal members of the I
Authority should be elected officials, considerable debate ensued regarding whether 01" not all
of the elected officials should be sitting members of a Metropolitan or Regional Council.
Recommendation No. 13 is quite specific:
"All Authority members be elected officials of Regional and
Metropolitan governments with the exception of the Provincial
appointees. Appointments be made by each Region and Metro in
accordance with its own standards and the term of the appointments
be consistent with the policies of the Regional or Metropolitan
Councils:"
On balance, this appears to be a proper solution in accordance with the other
recommendations contained within the report.
6. The present Executive Committee of the Authority, as is outlined on page 2 of Schedule
B of the report, felt the Executive Committee sho~ld be composed of:
- Chairman
Vice-Chairman -
-
- 4 Members representing Regional and Metropolitan governments
- 3 Standing Committee Chairmen
The difficulty with this opinion is that it does not reflect the reality of the funding of
the Authority Some 81 per cent. of the municipal share of Authority financing comes from
Metro, and it is possible that Metro could end up with only one member on the Executive
Committee if the opinion presently being voiecd by the Authority Executive Committee is
upheld. The review addresses this issue on page 51
Under the Conservation Authority Act. Metro is entitled to a number of municipal
representatives equal to the total of all the other municipal representatives. In my view, this
balance should be protected at the Executive Committee level.
7 The financial impact of the recommendations are addressed on pages 61 to 78 inclusive.
Page 76 outlines the impact of possible changes based upon the 1983 Levy'
Impact of Possible Change on 1983 Levy for Each Region and Metro
Based on 1983 Authority Budget ($000)

Metro +340 -216 +83 +207

Peel -19 +1~5 -35 + 101
York -18 -22 -39 -79
+368 - - +368
'" Assumes an increase in the Metro contribution higher than the existing level.
.
,
-3- B-219
The net change to ~letro, bused on t983 fi~ures, would have been an increase of
$207,00000, which in the main would result in increased Metro expenditure on the
. waterfront and for assuming the total municipal funding of. Black Creek Pioneer Village.
However, it will be noted that this is a projection which illustrates the financial
position after agreement has been reached with the Regions of Peel, York and Durham to
alter the existing financial arrangements regarding the cost of maintaining conservation
areas in the regions. The present financial arrangement is inequitable as can be seen from
the following table:
The 1983 Financial Picture Regarding
Levies for Recreation ($000)
Waterfront C.A. Black
Development Operations Creek Total %
I
Metro 686 919 350 1955 85
Durham 14 19 9 42 2
Peel 19 94 35 14.8 6
York 18 101 39 158 7
737 1133 433 2303 100
. Waterfront Development Levy is based on MNR commitments.
. Figures for C.A. operations and Black Creek Pioneer Village are budgetted amounts
, for net operating expenditures.
. .
In eff~t, Metro now funds $919-,000.00 for the conservation areas which in the main
are located in the Regions. In total share, Metro picks up 85 per cent., whereas from actual
surveys of people attending the conservation areas on a per capita. basis, Metropolitan .
Toronto residents represent around 60 per cent. of total use. In Durham, Metro residents
constitute only 50 per cent. of the users of the facilities, for they are, in the main, treated by
the residents of Ajax and Pickering as local parks. Durham pays only $19,000.00 towards
their'upkeep and. maintenance. It deserves remembering that Metro Parks pays the full cost
of maintaining our parks system which is on land leased from the M. T.R. C.A.
For understandable reasons outlined in the chart above, the Regions of Peel and
, Durham have no real desire to alter the' existing arrangements regarding the financing of
conservation areas. However, based on the recommendation that all Heritage Progrnms (i.e.
Black Creek) should be financially supported by the region in which they are located, this
means that Metro-would assume the municipal funding for Black Creek. As can be seen from
the above chart, Metro is already assuming the bulk of the financing with only limited say in
the operations of the Village.
If Metto is to assume Black Creek funding' in total, it is only equitable that Metro
should pay a reduced share of maintaining conservation areas located in the Regions.
8. As a companion to the financial matters mentioned. in 7 abOVlt, there' exist: two
problemsi.
A.. Agr-cement.. on, Sharing of Conservation' Maintenance: and o.perations,
(Recommendation No 24)'
.
.
8-220 - 'I -
An mtul."municlpal u~rcement b~tweel1 ~letro and the Rl:gLOns of Peel, York and
Durham will have Lo be negotiated as soon as possible. Until this is finalized, the I
savings to Metro cannot be re-directcd to increase the Metro share of waterfront
development. A negotiating team of the Commissioner of Parks and Property,
Metropolitan Solicitor and the Chief Administrative Officer should be
established to begin the negotiations.
B. Black Creek Pioneer Village:
As has already been stated, MetrQ now assumes the major share orthe municipal
funding of the project. Three years ago, the Metro Budget Sub,.Committee
seriously considered taking over the entire operation of the Village from the
Authority, because' of the large Metropolitan contribution and because of some
concerns as to how the Village was being run. However, the Budget Sub-
Committee decided against this because the Village now attracts museum
grants and contributions from corporations and estate donors which would
disappear if Black Creek Village became a part of the responsibility of the
Metropolitan Parks and Property Department. However, during the review of
the M.T R.C.A. this year, Metro staff again have expressed concern about the
operations ~fthe Village and the writer has seen enough-€vidence to indicate its
future development and control is unclear This opinion is not necessarily
shared by Authority staff. The fact is that the year 1984 will be a critical
funding year for the Village and, if the grants and donations which they are
estimating do not materialize, it may be necessary for Metro, some time in the
future, to take a further look at the relationship of the Village to the
Metropolitan Corporation.
9. Recommendations:
It is therefore recommended that:
(A) The recommendations in the Review of the Metropolitan Toronto and Region
Conservation Authority be adopted.
(B) The 13 Metropolitan officials to be elected to the re-constructed Authority be all
the: members of the Parks, Recreation and Property Committee, plus one
member representing each of the area municipalities to be 'elected by the
Metropolitan Council from among their number
(C) Metropolitan Toronto increase its contribution to waterfront projects in 1985 on
the basis that Provincial funding remain at least at its existing level and this
increase be in accordance with projects recommended jointly by the
Conservation Authority and the Parks, Recreation and Property Committee.
The increased Metro Capital Budget to be consistent with that which Metro has
placed in its capital budget over the last four years, and not at a level to which it
was reduced because of insufficient Provincial funding.
(0) Metropolitan Toronto assume the total municipal share of funding for Black
Creek Pioneer Village.
(E) A staff negotiating team of the Commissioner of Parks and Property,
Metropolitan SoliCitor and the Chief Administrative Officer be established to
give etTect to rec~mmendation No 24 (negotiating an inter-municipal agreement
for the operation and maintenance of conservation lands)
(F) This report, with CouncIl's recommendations, be forwarded to the Ministry of
Natural Resources and to the Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation
Authority for their necessary action. .
(0) Appropriate Metropolitan staff be authorized to take whatever action is
necessary in order to give etTect to the foregoing.

Authority being comprised as follows.

, (b) one Member of the Metropolitan Council from each.of the Area Municipalities;
and
. (c) si::: citizen appointments.)

"STUDY APPROACH"
.
.
B-235
. .
, . OVERVIEW OF THE PLANNING PROCESS
The planning exercise for Aquatic Park is to be undertaken in the I
context of a typical master plan which the Authority undertakes. The
process generally involves a review of background/site data, analyses of
recreational demand, establishment of constraints, identification of
alternatives and selection of the preferrred alternative. Figure 5
provides an'outline of the master plan area and the larger planning
area.
The Master Plan will follow the requirements of The Environmental
Assessment Act.
The process will also provide opportunity for a complete public
.consultation process through public meetings and/or open houses, as well
as contact with a broad range of interest groups and liaison with the
Provincial government. ,
.
2. STUDY APPROACH
The general study approach is outlined on the flow diagram (Figure 4).
The approach has been set up in five phases which include the following:
- Phase I - Zone Identification
- Phase II - Alternative Development Components
- Phase III - Concept Plan Development
- Phase IV - Master Plan
,
- Phase V - Report and Approvals
With the Master Plan adhering to The Enviornmental Assessment Act
requirements, the study approach incorportes the following
characteristics: .
- integration of the environmental concerns with the
.
planning and design process
.
- coordination of a public consultation process with

- development of an evaluation process to select the
planning options and their potential impacts
.
- continuous consultation with MOE's Environmental
Assessment staff and other appropriate government
departments and agencies.
PHASE I - ZONE IDENTIFICATION
Phase I of the Master Plan approach will provide an opportunity
to evaluate the site and establish planning zones for a range
of uses which will reflect the integrity of the resource and the
visitors experience.
This Phase will include a review of all background information, a
biophysical inventory, and review of Aquatic Park development schedule.
The product of this phase will be proposed general planning zones based
on an evaluation process and public comments and input. Confirmation of
the general planning zone(s) with the Task Force, Waterfront Advisory
Board (MTRCA), government agencies and the public will provide a basis
for subsequent phases of the master plan process.
PHASE II - ALTERNATIVE DEVELOPMENT COMPONENTS
Phase II of the process initiates the development and evaluation of
potential use components for each general planning zone(s) for Aquatic
Park.
,
Preferred components will be selected and evaluated based on criteria
such as site suitability~ environmental impact, cost, design
considerations, compatibility and public feasibility.

PHASE III - CONCEPT PLAN DEVELOPMENT
Phase III of the process involves the development of alternative concept
plans for the site which incorporates the selected components and their
supporting facilities. These plans could, depending on the selected
I components, provide locations for each component, particular management
principles, access (transit, cars, bicycles, pedestrians), and linkages
between components. These concept plans would be received with and
comment obtained from the Task Force, Waterfront Advisory Board.
government agencies and the public.
The concept plans would then be evaluated based upon an agreed
evaluation system-costs, environmental impact, quality/type of public
use opportunities, effect on management and operations, market
feasibility and resource management.
.
PHASE IV - MASTER PLAN
The Master Plan and Implementation program would be prepar'ed to reflect
the preferred concept and proposed actions to integrate the proposed
uses within the site. The implementation program would address the
costing, phasing, operation, financing, visitor programs and site design
guidelines including the coordination with the ongoing landfill
development and dredgeate disposal program.
PHASE V - REPORT AND APPROVALS
Preparation of the entire study and alternatives will be undertaken to
document all actions, review, and decisions for approval. This document
would be forwar.ded to the Task Force, Waterfront Advisory Board, MTRCA
Executive Committee and Full Authority for approval. Informal
government review would be undertaken prior to formal submission.

be completed under contract to the City of Scarborough
- maintenance of the shoreline of the Toronto Hunt Club
in accordance with the Authority'S access agreement will
be undertaken as will maintenance of shoreline which was
installed by MTRCA along Crescentwood Road in 1979

BRIEF TO
THE MINISTER OF NATURAL RESOURCES
OF THE .
PROVINCE OF ONTARIO
ON THE
, REPORT OF THE FLOOD PLAIN REVIEW' COMMITTEE
,
JUNE, 1984
.
B-264
-1-
INTRODUCTION
.
------------
------------
In September, 1982 the Government released a policy statement for the
management of flood plain lands in Ontario. Although municipal and
pUblic input had previously been sought, a number of municipalities and
individuals expressed concern and asked that the Minister of Natural
Resources provide them with an additional opportunity to comment on the
policies.
Accord ing ly, in August 1983, the Minister of Natural Resources
established the Flood Plain Review Committee (FPRC) to obtain public
comment and review. Mr. James Taylor, Q C., M P.P. for Prince
Edward-Lennox, was appointed to Chair the Committee The members of the
Committee represented a range of interests, including urban and rural
municipalities, real estate, consulting engineers, mortgage and
insurance, and a chamber of commerce.
The Committee held public meetings throughout Ontario during September
and October, 1983, and received some 300 briefs from municipalities,
conservation authorities, other agencies and individuals.
The Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Authority prepared and
submitted a brief to the Flood Plain Review Committee in October of
1983 This brief was also circulated to all of the Authority's member
municipalities. The Authority addressed 3 main issues regarding flood
plain management
(1) Regulatory Flood Criteria
(2) Flood Plain Management Implementation
( 3) Public Information and Consultation
and made 5 recommendations to the Committee on these issues (see
Append ix A)
Based on the input from the various public meetings and written briefs,
the Flood Plain Review Committee has submitted their report, The
Committee's report contains 13 recommendations which are included in
Append ix B
The Minister of Natural Resources, the Honourable Alan Pope, Q C tabled
the Flood Plain Review Committee Report in the Legislature on March 29,
198Q, and indicated that the report would be circulated to all
interested parties and that comments would be requested by June 30,
198Q
.
Prior to the Authority preparing its brief to the Minister, staff were
directed to meet with as many member municipalities as possible prior to
the Authority preparing its brief This would ensure that the comments
of the Authority would reflect as much as possible, the opinions of its
member and local municipalities
8-265
-2-
At the time of writing this report staff will have met with both staff
I and political officials of 14 municipalities Todate 7 have prepared
reports and recommendations for forwarding to the Minister.
As a result of these discussions this brief is submitted to the Minister
of Natural Resources as The Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation
Authority's position with regards to the Flood Plain Reveiw Committee
report.
The Flood Plain Review Committee's 13 recommendations included as
Appendix B suggest many sweeping changes to the way the administration
of flood plain management is handled presently. Changes are also
I suggested to the regulatory flood criteria Again the Flood Plain
Review Committee's recommendations can be grouped under the 3 main
issues listed earlier The general thrust of the recommendations can be
summarized as follows:
Regulatory Flood Criteria
The Flood Plain Review Committee recommends that the 1 100 year flood
become the minimum regulatory criteria with a higher level adopted only
through public review and referral of the criteria to an appropriate
, hearing tribunal. The Flood Plain Review Committees's recommendations
would also allow development within the 1 100 year flood plain unless
flood proofing was not feasible or the channel hydraulics were affected
adversely.
Flood Plain Management Implementation
The Flood Plain Review Committee's recommendations would give the
responsibility for the administration of flood plain management to the
municipalities with the conservation authorities acting in an advisory
role
I
Public Information and Consultation
The Flood Plain Review Committee's recommendations attempt to improve
the mechanisms for public consultation and participation in the
regulatory process. Improvements were also identified as being required
in public awareness and information programs The Committee also
recognized the need for better appeal mechanisms.
The Authority is of the opinion that
1 The level of protection that should be afforded to the residents of
the Metro Toronto Region should be the Regional Storm as defined by
. Hurricane Hazel or the 100 year whichever is greater and development
would not normally be allowed within the flood plain
6-266
-3-
2. The Conservation Authority is the appropriate agency to implement ,
flood plain management and flood plain regulations in that it is
empowered under The Conservation Authorities Act to make regulations
pertaining to flood plains and has acquired the technical expertise
to administer these regulations and it is the only agency with
jurisdiction based on watershed boundaries.
3. The main issue with regard to flood plain management and regulations
is not the standard of protection but how that standard is applied.
Although the Conservation Authority is given the power to enact
flood plain regulations, the policies and criteria by whioh the
Authority administers this power are the most important factors with
regard to aohieving publio acoeptance, munioipal support and at the
same time achieving the Authority's water management objeotives.
~. Public awareness is the key to obtaining acceptance of the
Authority's flood plain management programs and flood plain
regulations Public awareness is achieved through information
programs directed at both the general public and appropriate private
sector areas,
5. The Authority concurs with the Flood Plain Review Committee that
improvements are required in the appeal mechanisms and would support
changes to the Conservation Authorities Act which would enable
Authority decisions to be appealed to an independent tribunal such
as the Ontario Municipal Board This Authority would also support
changes in the appeal mechanism which would allow appeals by other
than the applicant. This would enable the municipality, adjacent
land owner and the Minister of Natural Resources to appeal on
Authority decision as well
The five points listed above were used as a basis for discussion with
both the Regional and local municipalities and as can be seen in
Appendix C, these positions were supported

AUTHORITY COMMENTS
I
------------------
------------------
As indioated the following comments were based on discussions with most
of Authority's member municipalities both Regional and looal. For these
disoussions the Authority grouped the Flood Plain Review Committee's 13
reoommendations into 4 major categories namely
(1) Regulatory Flood Criteria
(2) Flood Plain Management Implementation
(3) Publio Information and Consultation
(IJ) Appeal Meohanisms
,
The Authority comments are organized under these general headings rather
than on eaoh individual reoommendation, due to the fact that so many of
the 13 reoommendations are interelated
Regulatory Flood Criteria
The Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Authority strongly
believes that the Regulatory Flood for its area of jurisdiction should
continue to be based on Hurrioane Hazel. The question of what the
,
regulatory flood should be was addressed by the Authority in the
development of its Watershed Plan in 1980
The selection and use of the Regional Storm as the appropriate level of
protection to be afforded to the communities in the Metropolitan Toronto
region in both the 1959 and 1980 plans was based on the following
(1) Hurricane Hazel was an observed event centred over the Humber River
watershed in 195IJ. The flood levels were reoorded and establish
faotual data on whioh mapping and data projections can be based
,
(2) rt is not known whether Hurricane Hazel is the most severe flood
event to have affected this region Certainly, since the earliest
days of settlement, flooding has been a part of life near the
river S. As communities infringed on the river flats, damage caused
by flooding beoame more unacceptable culminating in the extensive
property damage and the loss of 81 lives during Hurricane Hazel
Damaging floods have occurred in the Metro region on the average
every 1-1/3 years Many of these events are classed as severe and
at least two in less than 100 years were oonsidered to be major
disasters
rn the last two decades alone there have been eleven recorded
significant flooding ooourrenoes Hurrioane Hazel was only one of
.
25 Tropical storms which passed over or came olose to Ontario in
the period 1QOO to 1970. Virtually every spring flood levels
exceeding the' 100 year flood line due to ice jams are experienced
at various locations throughout the watersheds.
8-268
-5-
(3) While the Authority was undertaking the hydrologic studies of the
.
watersheds under its jurisdiction for its 1980 Watershed Plan, a
unique opportunity was presented, when dealing with the Humber
River, to analyze and compare the flood flows that occurred during
Hurrioane Hazel to those that result from the caloulation of the
Regional Storm as defined in the Conservation Authority's
Regulation The Authority oarried out a study to analyze the two
floods and to see if they were in fact comparable.
Upon completion of the study, oonsidering the observed flow data
that was available for the Humber River during Hazel, it was
apparent that the simulated peak discharges resulting from the
Regional Storm oalculation are comparable. This is an important
point in that in confirms that the Regional Storm as defined in
the Authority's regulations correotly represents Hurricane Hazel
as it actually occurred.
( II ) Sinoe the Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Authority
has been involved in flood plain management and regulations since
.
1964 and has utilized Hurricane Hazel as the standard, all
municipal planning in the Metro region as it affeots valley land
has recognized this standard
(5) The level of the Regulatory Flood must also take into aooount the
partioular watershed oharacteristics Within The Metropolitan
Toronto and Region Conservation Authority area, the river valleys
are deep and well defined with relatively small flood plains As
a result flow velocities and depths are exoessive and extremely
hazardous. The proposition by the Flood Plain Review Committee
that development could occur anywhere within the 100 year flood
plain would prove disastrous in these areas
The Authority does agree however with the Flood Plain Review
Committee's report that in certain areas where the flood plain is
characterized as being very wide and having shallow depths and
low velocities that different criteria and approaches should be
oonsidered Flood plains with these oharacteristios although not
prevalent in the Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation
Authority's area of jurisdiction, do ocour in certain headwater
areas
The Authority has recognized that these areas do ocour and have
developed policies and criteria which recognize the neoessity to
deal with them on a different basis The implementation of Master
Drainage Plans for these headwater areas for example is one
.
approach which has been used successfully to date.
8-269
-6-
For these reasons, Hurricane Hazel has been accepted as the
standard for the Metro Toronto region since 1954 and was
I re-affirmed by the Authority and its member municipalities in 1980
For the most part, as well, the Authority's member municipalities
confirmed their agreement with the existing flood plain criteria in
their responses to the Flood Plain Criteria Policy Statement
released by the Province early in 1983, and again in their comments
being prepared on the Flood Plain Review Committee's report.
The use of the flood of record as the regulatory flood is also
supported by the Minister of Natural Resources who made the
following statement in his remarks to the Provincial LegiSlature
when he tabled the Flood Plain Review Committee's Report.
I
"The second thing that must be stressed is that we will
not support the lowering of flood protection criteria
in any part of Ontrio where the past history of flooding
reveals that higher criteria would be more appropriate"
A similar statement was made by the Minister in his comments to
the Standing Committee on Resources Development on the Ministry
of Natural Resources budget estimates for 1984/1985 on May 23,
1984
,
This further supports the Authority's position that Hurricane Hazel
remain as the regulatory flood since it is the flood of record and
as evidenced, the flood history for the Metropolitan Toronto and
Region Conservation Authority watersheds would substantiate its use
as the regulatory flood
Flood Plain Management Implementation
The implementation of any flood plain management program must be done on
I a watershed basis This is a fundamental premise that was recognized by
the Province of Ontario when it enacted The Conservation Authorities Act
in 1946. Unlike any other area of municipal or provincial involvement,
flood plain management, which includes flood control and flood plain
regulations, must be administered using the watershed as the planning
unit The implications of not proceeding on this basis would be
disastrous Flood plain policies and criteria, when developed on a
political, or some other, boundary cannot deal with the natural
hydraulic and hydrologic characteristics of any stream or river since
they are governed by the entire watershed
Since the Conservation Authorities Act specifically defines the
Authority's area of jurisdiction as the watershed, the Conservation
Authority is, therefore the logical agency to deal with flood plain
. management and regulations
8-270
-7-
This very basic premise was also supported by the Minister in his
comments to the Provincial Legislature when he tabled the FPRC report
and said, "that flooding problems can best be managed on a watershed I
basis" As indicated the Authority is the only agency with a watershed
based mandate.
The FPRC recommendations deal only with one aspect of flood plain
management i e flood plain regulation. This is but one of many
components included in flood plain management. Other areas such as the
construction of flood control structures, flood plain acquisition
programs and flood warning and forecasting are also very important
aspects of flood plain management. The shifting of one component to the
municipality as recommended, will only fragment and reduce the
effectiveness of the Authority's total flood plain management program
Although the Authority sees the "Standard" of protection to be afforded
to the citizens of Ontario as one of the key issues to be considered by
the Flood Plain Review Committee, the Metropolitan Toronto and Region
Conservation Authority perceiv~s that this is only a manifestation of
the real problem which is the administration of flood plain regulations
A reduction in the standard as suggested by the FPRC does not
necessarily reduce or eliminate the debate on the issue of flood plain
regulations In fact such a decision which may seem expedient in the
short term, may in the long term increase dramatically the flood risk of
the citizens of Ontario
In preparing its Watershed Plan, the Authority recognized the need ~r
flexibility in administering flood plain regulations This is
particularly true in areas where development has historically occupied
the floodplain The Authority has, therefore, developed policies which
permit flexibility in application of the standard depending on existing
development and valley configuration One such policy which the
Authority has supported and contrary to the Flood Plain Review
Committee's report still supports, is the "Special Policy Area" concept
for existing developed areas within the flood plain. The Authority does
agree however that streamlining the process of designation is required
The success of this Authority in achieving its objectives since 1964 is
more than ample justification that a common sense approach to any land
use regulation is more important than the regulation standard
The Authority in preparing its policies and operational criteria
recognized that the implementation of flood plain regulations must be
done in such a way as to recognize the valley type, existing development
and the flood plain characteristics As a result, Authority policies
were first based on valley configuration i e Headwaters, Well-Defined
Valleys, and Ill-Defined Valleys These categories were further refined .
based on whether the flood plain was developed or undeveloped
6-271
-8-
Finally it must also be pointed out that the existing Provincial Flood
Plain Policy No. 4 states
I
"Conservation Authorities are to continue to administer fill
and construction regulations, in accordance with the
Conservation Authorities Act;
Construction regulations made under the Conservation
Authorities Act may be rescinded for those areas where a
municipality has adopted Official Plan Policies and Zoning
Bylaws which comply with the objectives of flood plain
management, and in accordance with the procedural policies
established by the Conservation Authority and the Ministries
of Natural Resources and Municpal Affairs and Housing."
, The Authority believes this policy remains valid and should
be retained It allows the implementation of the construction
regulation component of flood plain management to shift to
the municipality - but at the option of the municipality, in
consultation with the local Conservation Authority and
relevant provincial ministries. Regulation for fill placement
and alteration to waterways regulations would remain with
the Conservation Authority.
Finally the recent review of the Authority's mandate and organization
, confirmed the Authority's role in watershed management and recommended
that existing program objectives contained within the Authority's
Watershed Plan remain
Public Information and Consultation
The FPRC report makes the comment that there is a need for "full public
consultation and participation in a well defined regulatory process with
built in appeal provisions". The Committee notes the need for better
public awareness and information regarding flood plain regulation, ~r
I
an "opening up" of the regulatory process and for improvements in the
way the system is administered
PUblic awareness programs can always be improved This Authority
recognizes that although it has made a good effort in achieving public
awareness of its regulations that continuing and additional work is
needed. This is an area where the Province, the Authority and the
private sector have a responsibility for public information programs
related to flood plain management and regulation. Both the Province and
the Authority must ensure that the regulations are made known not only
to the public but also t9 the many organizations that represent private
sector involvement in the development, sale, and financing of land.
These organizations must then ensure that their members are made aware
. that Provincial and Authority policies and criteria apply to flood plain
lands
B-272
-9-
0
Sufficient financing of such information programs is required and the
Province must place greater priority on this effort.
Appeal Mechanisms
The Authority is already on record as supporting a change in the present
appeal mechanisms for decisions made by the Authority under its Fill
Construction and Alteration to Waterways Regul~tions. The Authority
should make a decision under its regulations based sOlely on technical
considerations and any appeal should then be to an independent tribunal.
The Authority also believes that other parties such as the
Municipalities, the Ministry of Natural Resources or adjacent property
owners should also be able to appeal an Authority decision.
Should there be a change in the appeal mechanisms it must be made quite
clear as to what is subject to appeal Appeals can not challenge the .
existence of the regulation but only that it was drawn improperly or
technically incorrect Floodlines do not create flood plains - only
delineate them Only the Authority policies as to what may be allowed
or what may not be allowed should be subject to appeal

CONCLUSION
----------
----------
I
The debate on the issues of flood plain management has raged for at
least the last 5 or 6 years There have been various studies, reports,
policy documents and reviews, each addressing problems associated with
criteria, implementation policies and procedures The latest effort in
this regard is the report and recommendations of the Flood Plain Review
Commi ttee. Again there has been an attempt to resolve the inherent
problems in flood plain management by dealing only with the symptoms
Although everyone acknowledges that Conservation Authorities were set
up originally on a watershed basis for two reasons
,
(1) Water management can only be done on a watershed basis and;
(2) Each Watershed is unique with different characteristics,
problems and needs and requiring different water management
techniques and solutions.
this premise has been lost in past attempts by the Province of Ontario
to apply "Provincial" standards, to flood plain management
, It is this Authority's position that the objectives of the Province of
Ontario, the Conservation Authority and the Municipalities can be met,
not through the setting of another "Provincial" standard but through
returning to the original premise that watersheds are unique The
recognition that each watershed is subjected to different demands i e
Urban vs. Rural and that management techniques and solutions must be
developed individually, should go a long way in dealing with flood plain
management issues
The development of the various policies, management techniques and
I solutions must be done in conjunction with the municipalities
recognizing the watershed management on a watershed basis principle and
utilizing appropriate historic or design flood events as the basis for
regulation
It is with these principles in mind that the following recommendations
are made with respect to the nine watersheds under the jurisdiction of
the M.T R.C.A, It is hoped however that the general approach not the
specifics could be implemented across the Province and form the basis
for the development of individual watershed flood plain management
criteria
.
B-274 - 11 -
RECOMMENDATIONS
I
---------------
---------------
, The regulatory flood event for flood plain management for the MTRCA
area of jurisdiction should continue to be the Regional Storm
(Hurricane Hazel) or 1 100 year whichever is greater
2 The selection of the regulatory flood event for any watershed
should take into account watershed characteristics, land use and
historic flood events.
3. The Conservation Authority, as the sole agency having watershed
jurisdiction, continue to be responsible for developing and
implementing comprehensive programs to meet stated objectives for
flood plain management, including the administration of flood plain
regulations,
q Conservation Authorities in developing and implementing its flood
plain management policies and criteria, have regard for individual
watershed characteristics including valley configuration, existing
development, local community interests, and Provincial and Federal
flood damage reduction objectives.
5 Policy ~q of the present Provincial Flood Plain Management Policy
,
allows municipalities to assume the responsibility for the
administration of construction regulations subject to appropriate
Official Plan Policies and Zoning Bylaws being in place This
policy remains valid and should be retained
6 The use of Special Policy Area (S P A.) designations be continued
in existing developed areas where Regional Storm criteria cannot be
met The procedures by which S P.A, status is achieved should be
reviewed in order to streamline the process
7 The Conservation Authority, with the cooperation and support of the
Province, develop public information programs with respect to flood
plain management and the need for regulation of flood plain lands
8 Appropriate mechanisms should be developed to improve public
involvement and consultation prior to requesting Provincial
approval of fill and construction regulations.
9 Present appeal procedures should be modified to enable appeals of
Authority decisions to be heard by an independent tribunal instead
of the Authority's Executive Committee
I
10 Any revised appeal procedures should include provisions which would
allow appeals by the Minister of Natural Resources, an affected
municipality or an abutting property owner
- 12 - 8-275
11 Revised appeal mechanisms must clearly identify what is subject to
I appeal Only the Authority's decision or the technical accuracy of
the line should be subject to appeal not the existence of the
regulation.
12 Recognizing this Authority's opinion that appropriate
implementation of reasonable flood plain management policies is as
important or more important than the regulatory flood criteria, it
is recommended that the Ministries of Municipal Affairs and Housing
and Natural Resources, in conjunction with ACAO, develop
comprehensive training programs for Conservation Authority staff
covering the implementation and administration of flood plain
I regulations

B-279
-1-
q.O SUMMARY OF RECOMMENDATIONS
I
Flood Plain Definition
1 . The Committee recommends that the Regulatory Flood used to
designate Flood Plains in Ontario be the 100-Year Flood and
will be defined by the water elevation having a return period
of 100 years.
2. The Committee recommends that consideration be given to
permitting the maintenance of a higher criteria, where already
I adopted, subject to a full public review and referral of this
criteria to an appropriate hearing tribunal.
3. The Committee recommends that all development within the flood
plain be permitted anywhere within the flood plain sUbject to
development being controlled both from structural integrity
during a flood as well as for the potential to decrease channel
capacity or channel storage The flood plain shall include all
land below the water elevations of the regulatory flood
,
q Structures below the high water elevation will be designed to be
structurally stable to provide a safe refuge from water flows at
the control elevation
5 The Committee recommends that the analyses of the flood plain
include the definition of the floodway required for the passage
of flood waters associated with the 100 year flood
I
6 The Committee recommends that a freeboard be establishedin the
definition of the Regulatory Flood level subject to further
research being carried out
Two-Zone Concept
7. The Committee recommends that the Two-Zone concept be abandoned
in favour of an approach whereby all areas within the flood plain
as defined by the Regulatory Flood would be considered as a
conditional development area
./2
.
6-280
-2-
I
Special Policy Areas
8. The Committee recommends that further use of Special Policy Area
designation be deferred until the implications of the new
Regulatory Flood and the recommendations on conditional
development an be assessed
Responsibility for Implementation
9 The Committee recommends that the primary responsibility for the
implementation of flood plain management policies will be through
the local municipalities under the new Planning Act
Modification to the Conservation Authorities Act
10 The Committee recommends that the necessary modifications be made
to the Conservation Authorities Act and other relevant
legislation to effect the transfer of responsibility for the
implementation of flood plain management policies from the
Conservation Authorities to the local government.
1 1 The Committee- recommends that consideration be given to amending
the Conservation Authorities Act, to alter the powers of
Conservation Authorities so that these bodies become advisors to
participating local municipalities in the administration of the
watershed,
Municipal Official Plans
12 The Committee recommends that municipal Official Plans include
policies in accordance with the appropriate section of the new
Planning Act to the effect that site plan control provisions will
be extended to embrace those areas defined by the elevationa1
line of the RegUlatory Flood Amendment may also have to be made
to the existing legislation
13 The Committee recommends that policies be incorporated in the
MuniCipal Official Plan which extend site plan control to include
lands currently designated by fill and construction regulations

Sub-Committee Meet1ng #1/84. Thursday, June 28, 1984
I FROM W.A. McLean, Acting General Manager
RE GUIDELINES FOR THE PREPARATION OF THE 1985 PRELIMINARY BUDGET
The 1985 Preliminary Budget will be the first "post-review" budget of the
Authority. Although the negotiations, which the Review calls for, to revise
funding formulas will not be complete, the 1985 Preliminary Budget should
address as many of the Review recommendations as possible. As well, the
budget must deal with continuing constraint, recommendations from our
"in-houseu program performance appraisal, and the setting of priorities.
(A) REVIEW OP THE METROPOLITAN TORONTO AND REGION CONSERVATION ADTBORITY
The Review recommendations deal with a number of subjects that will
directly affect the 1985 Preliminary Budget. The budget guidelines
should include provision for
(ll member and meeting costs reflecting a reorganized Authority
(Three standing committees, an executive and more frequent
Authority meetings):
( iil staff changes in Finance and Administration reflecting
recommendations for improved Controller and financial analysis
functions:
( ii i) acceleration of waterfront development for Metropolitan
Toronto:
(ill) Pioneer Village funding:
(v) projected capital budgets for five years;
. (vi) projected Marketing Plan budget (including facility
improvement) for three years:
(viil prepare and budget for a programmed maintenance schedule
(B) CONSTRAINT
It is almost certain that some form of wage and funding constraint will
continue in 1985 The budget guidelines should include provision for
(i) a salary schedule increase of 5%:
( iil private funding and franchising of non-core program elements
being used where possible, while remaining consistent with
program goals and objectives:
, ( ii i) use of volunteers being continued:
( iv) no new proJects should be added to the Foundation requests
until they can complete those that are currently in progress:
(v) prices charged for general admissions being reviewed taking
into consideration
visitor reaction
market survey information
length of stay
( vil prices charged for goods and services being reviewed taking
into consideration:
visitor reaction
market information
cost
(vii) operating schedules being reviewed taking into account
. monthly, weekly, daily cost/income ratios
staffing requirements
marketing information

(C) PROGRAM PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL I
The program performance appraisal completed for 1983 revealed some
issues that should be dealt with in the budget 1985 Preliminary
Budget Guidelines should include
(il provision for filling complement positions in the Water
Resource Division:
( iil limit use of special program funds to those which are
consistent with current priorities:
( Hil emphasize meeting existing program operating costs rather than I
embarking on new initiatives
(D) PRIORITIES
The Authority's diverse sources of funds, and the Provincial method of
allocating funds makes it necessary to think of priorities in two categories
which are basically not interchangeable from a Provincial funding point of
view. The Review of the Authority categorizes these as core and non-core
programs. Reductions in non-core spending does not necessarily make more
money available for core programs The 1985 Preliminary Budget Guidelines
should include priorities in terms of criteria which establish a rational
screening process for including elements of approved programs in two general
categories
Core Proqrams Non-Core Proqrams
Flood Control Waterfront
Storm Water Management Watershed Recreation
Erosion Control Community Relations
Shoreline Management Heritage Conservation
Land Acquisition
Conservation Services
Priority Criteria
(1 ) Required to complete an eX1sting proJect or program element already in
progress.
(2 ) Required to operate and maintain an existing program, program element or
facility on the basis established in the 1983 Program Performance Review,
or as contained in an agreement or legal requirement ,
(3 ) Required to initiate a program element or project which is presently on
an existing site specific priority list or forms a part of an approved
master plan
(4 ) Required to prepare a project or program element that will contribute to
existing program goals and objectives
Preliminary Budget information will include a statement of the consequences,
in terms of these criteria, of projects or program elements which are not
funded.
RECOMMENDATION
IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT the staff report "Guidelines for the Preparation of the
1985 Preliminary Budget" be received and the guidelines contained therein be
adopted

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
.
PURPOSE
The purpose of the Master Planning Study was the preparation
and approval of a Master Plan for the development, operation
and management of the Boyd Conservation Area owned and leased
by the Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Authority
, (MTRCA) .
The study was undertaken in a manner consistent with Ministry
of Natur al Resources guidelines for Master Planning, MTRCA
mandate, study goals and objectives, and Ontario's
environmental projection legislation.
The Master Plan documents:
.
- the scope and scale of site development
- locations for suitable site uses
- supporting facilities such as road access, parking,
water supply and waste disposal
THE SITE
.
The Boyd Conservation Area is 842 ha, located between
Kleinburg and Woodbridge in the Town of Vaughan, 2 to 3 k m
north of Metropolitan Toronto.
Two major conservation education faciltties are located on
site:
- Kortright Centre for Conservation;
- Boyd Field Centre
.
i
B-301
ln the southern part of the site is the 95 ha day use recrea- .
tion area, with its natural swimming, picnicking areas, and
parking for 500 cars with "overflow" parking for another
1,000 cars.
The site also includes the MTRCA tree shrub nursery.
The 300 ha north of Mackenzie Drive includes the 186 ha
former Glassco Property leased by MTRCA from the Ontario
Heritage Foundation. A proposal has been made by Authority
to develop a portion of this are a as a university-level
residenti al camp u s for conservation education studies.
The site is characterized by.
- ten designated as environmental significant areas,
- extensive flood plains,
- steep wooded valley slopes,
- 230 ha of natural forests;
- 51 ha of reforestation,
- 170 ha of agriculture,
- five buildings of historical interest,
- a number of known archaeological sites.
Ro ads adjacent to and traversing the site are directly ac c e s-
sible to major highways, including 400, 27 and 7, with
Highway 407 committed to early construction.
Main water supply is available to much of the site and
proposals currently being considered by Town exi st for water
supply improvements and the provision of sanitary sewerage to
the southern area.
I
i i
B- 302
I Kleinburg and Woodbridge are linked to the site by the Humber
River Valley system. The area is bounded by are estate-
residential subdivisions and agricultural land in cultiva-
tion.
Existing natural environmental and socio-cultural conditions
were analyzed to determine the extent to which they constrain
potenti al developments. Natural constraints are slopes,
vegetation, wildlife habitat and aquatic habitat. So c i 0 -
, cul tural conditions which are sensitive to potential develop-
ments include existing and committed on-site uses, fl 0 0 d
plains, environmentally sensitive areas, heritage resources
and existing and future off-site uses.
ISSUES
,
The study was initiated as a result of several issues
relating to the site, including.
- increased demand for recreational activities,
- 1 ack of integration among existing site uses,
- concentration of use south of Rutherford Road;
- unreliable water quality in existing swimming area,
I
- pressure for allocation of some land by outside agencies
and other functions of MTRCA,
- development of nearby recreational/cultural facilities
and potenti al effect on Boyd;
- increasing costs to operate and maintain the site.

STUDY PROCESS
I
The Master Planning Study has been prepared in accordance
with the requirements of the Conservation Authorities Act and
Environmental Assessment Act. Its five phases were:
Phase I
- Inventory and evaluation of existing and future
, conditions, including identification of sites suitable
for developmen~ and analysis of demand, based on site
investigation and document review.
Phase II
- Identification of potential uses for the site and evalu-
ation based on achievement of MTRCA goals and objec-
,
tives, environmental effect, comptab i 1 i ty and public
comment.
Phase III
- Preparation of optional concept plans and evaluation
based on facilities and activities offered, environ-
mental effects and market feasibility.
I
Phase IV
- Preparation of the Master Plan, including proposed deve-
lopments and their economic feasibility.
Phase V
- Documentation of the entire study.
III
vii
B-307
The public was provided with opportunities to comment on the .
progress and direction of the study (both informally and
formall y) during each phase of the study.
Open houses for public consultation were held on 17 February,
1983; 28 June 1983; and 15 September 1983, all at the
Kortright Centre for Conservation. S t u dy mat e ri a I was
displayed and explained at each open house and all comments
were documented. In addition, informal meetings were held
with government agencies and interest groups throughout the
study.
RECREATION SUPPLY AND DEMAND
The population in the total market area is over 5 million
people, with 300,000 within 30 minutes driving time of the
site, nearly 4 million within 30 minutes to 1 hour driving
time and about 1.2 million between 1 and 2 hours driving
time. The population for the market area projected for 1991
is 5.8 mill ion, with 464,000 within 30 minutes driving time.
There are a number of competing attractions nearby and in the
greater Toronto area, ranging from Canada's Wonderland and
the Town of Vaughan's parks to the CNE and Ontario Place.
Many of the attractions are conservation areas, some man age d
by MTRCA and others by the adjoining Hamilton and Hal ton
Region Conservation Authorities.
Attendance to the south day use area has declined, from over
300,000 in 1969 to 142,000 in 1982 as a result of such
factors as competing recreational opportunities, unreliable
swimming conditions and inability to meet the changing
recreation demands of the market. The Kortright Centre
.
vi i i
B-308
attendance, however, has increased steadily, from its openi ng
I
attendance of 30,000 in 1980 to over 77,000 in 1982. The
Boyd Field Centre serves eight School Boards and operates at
full capaci ty duri ng the school year. About 2,800 students
use the facility annually.
Trends in recreational activity include growing concern and
appreciation for the n at ur al environment, greater interest in
physi cal fitness and participation in recreational ac t i vi -
, ties. These trends indicate a probable increased demand fo r
facilities on the Boyd site.
POTENTIAL USES
Types of site use focused on resource management, conserva-
tion education and recreation and were identified based on
. uses permitted by MTRCA policy and programs, expansion of
existing site use, recreation demand analysis and public
comment.
Potenti al resource management uses include the Nursery,
reforestation and woodlot management, agri cul ture, improve-
ments of wildlife and fisheries habitats, stream and pond
improvements, gravel pit rehabilitation, and archaeological
I
preservation. This category of use is the most extensive and
would cover over 80% of the site in all optional concepts for
development.
Several of the potential conservation education uses already
exist, including the Kortright Centre, the Boyd Field Centre,
and the Nursery. In addition, the Glassco Residential Field
Centre and the Family and Demonstration Farms are proposed.
.
ix
8-309
A wide range of potential recreational developments were I
considered from water-based facilities through entertainment
to accommodation. Water-based facilities included fishing,
boating and swimming, possibly including a wave-pool and
water slides. Entertainment included amusement parks and
fairgrounds, possibly including the Woodbridge fairgrounds.
Other potential recreational facilities included picnic
areas, winter sports, horseback and cycling trails, hiking,
and motorcycle racing.
Those potenti a1 uses were evaluated, based on, for examp1 e
existing site conditions, demand, f e a sib i1 i ty . As a result
of that preliminary analysis, several potenti a1 uses were
eliminated. The remaining uses were subjected to a more
detailed evaluation of how they met the goals and objectives
of the study, their potenti a1, envi ro nmenta1 effects,
compatibility and pUblic comment.
The preferred uses then became the basis for the development
of alternative concept plans.
CONCEPT PLANS
The site's inventory and analysis identified areas that had
low environmental constraints and would be suitable for
development. From that site screening process, five optional
concept plans were prepared.
All concepts included the Kortright Centre, Boyd Fi e1 d
Centre, G1 assco Residenti a1 Field Centre and Nursery. All
emphasized resource management, which is the most extensive
use category.
I
x
I
B-310
Concept 1 focused on resource management and conservation
.
education, providing passive recreation only. Concepts 2a
and 2b were based on a moderate level of recreational use,
each proposing a recreational area with swimming pool and
campground but in different locations. Concepts 3a and 3b
were based on a relatively high level of site use, including
a recreation area with wave pool, water park and camping
f ac i 1 it i e s .
I
The concepts were evaluated and compared basis, using a wide
range of criteria including study goals and objectives,
potenti al effects of development, and public comment.
As a result of that evaluation, three of the five concepts
were eliminated - the low or passive recreation alternative
. and both high intensity recreation options. The pr e ferr ed
concept was developed as combination of the two moderate
intensity recreation concepts. The effects or changes which
might result from that concept, and possible necessary
mitigating measures to overcome any ~roblems, were identified
and described as the basis for the Master Plan.
I
MASTER PLAN
The Master Plan proposes a mix of site uses in a manner that
best met study goals and objectives, addressed the issues of
the area, and considered pUblic comment.
.
xi
B-311
Resource Management I
Most of the site will be used only for resource management.
Some management areas will have limited public access to
ensure minimal disruption to sensitive ecosystems while
others wi 11 be used for hiking trails and related interpreta-
tive events. MTRCA1s management plan is recommended to
encourage coordinated site planning and programs to e n h a n c e
and protect the resources of the entire site.
Conservation Education
The Kortright Centre will continue to be the focus of the
MTRCA's public conservation education programs.
Existing programs will be continued at the Boyd Field Centre,
including archaeological studies. Pub 1 i c access to the Fi el d
Centre will be discouraged to minimize disruption to school
studies. A tr ail wi 11 be developed to linking Fiela Centre
to Kortright to provide access to those facilities.
New facilities proposed for conservation education are'
- Family Farm
- Demonstration Farm
- Nursery Interpretative Centre.
The Family Farm is proposed east of the Kortright Centre. It
is a themed family attraction demonstrating and displaying
.
xii
, B-312
. southern Ontario farming practices, while also providing an
op portun i ty for recreation, s u c has h ay rid e san d pony rid e s .
Programs may include:
- History of agriculture,
- Orchard crop demonstration;
- Farm machinery demonstration,
- Farm animal d i s play ,
- Indian agriculture display;
, - Woodlot management,
- Farm energy display;
- Farm house renovation and period life style exhibit;
- Farm ponds display.
The Demonstration Farm is located on the north side of Major
Mackenzie Drive. This faCility will operate as a working
farm to promote, educate and demonstrate conservation
.
practices associated with farmi ng and rural residenti al deve-
lopment. The Farm will be used for seminars to explain
MTRCA's various conservation services and private lands
assistance programs and regulations, to farmers and the
public who live on or adjacent to MTRCA lands.
The proposed demonstrations would include:
I
- Fish pond development,
- Forest management;
- Wildlife management,
- Stream and watershed protection;
- Erosion control,
- Agri cul tural waste handling.
The Demonstration Farm would al so be the fo c u s for a new
equestrian centre.
.
xiii
B-313 ~
The Horseback Riding Trails are proposed throughout the .
existing agri cul tural areas north of Major MacKenzie Drive.
Trail use will be monitored and controlled to minimize
impacts on sensitive ecosystems.
The Nursery Interpretative Centre is proposed as an addi-
tional facility to complement the existing Nursery. I twill
be located near the Family Farm. Propagation facilities and
a small green house are proposed to d i s play a v a r i e ty 0 f
plant materials and their uses. A conservation planning
service would be offered. Demonstrations would identi fy the
uses of-
- native trees and shrubs for landscaping,
- shrubs for wil d 1 i fe,
- plant material for erosion control,
- plants for fall colour/winter interest,
- plant material for energy conservation.
Nursery displays and demonstrations would also be centered at
the existing Nursery_ Demonstrations such as pruning,
s pray i n g , transpl anti ng, container growing and plant mainten-
ance, are proposed for both the general public and profes-
sional s.
The opportunity to develop the Glassco Residential Field
Centre was maintained in the Plan. Shoul d it become feasible
to develop the Field Centre, its Master Plan would be
re-evaluated to ensure it is consistent with the intent of
this Master Planning Study.

Recreation
.
Recreational activities are dispersed throughout the site to
reduce the concentration of uses south of Rutherford Road and
to integrate recreation with conservation education. Uses
are located in areas of low biophysical constraint and
buffered from adjacent land uses.
Opportunities for swimming and picnicking will conti nue to be
, provided south of Rutherford Road but improvements are pro-
posed to existing picnic areas, swimming, parking and the
entrance. Existing picnic shelters and washrooms will be
used. A heated, dished swimming pool or similar man-made
facility of about 2500 m2 is proposed. Parking will be
reduced to about 925 spaces to control the number of visitors
and minimize disturbance to adjacent ecosystems. The
entrance wi 11 be improved to three lanes with three ticket
. booths and a turning circle will aid "turn-aways" when the
parking space is full.
The central part of the site has been mainly used for conser-
vation education. It is anticipated that a campground and
family farm would support and complement that use.
The family campground is proposed about 1 km south of the
I Kortright Centre in a low constraint area, outside high
quality ecosystems and heritage resources, and secluded from
resi denti a1 area. Campsites would be developed in two phases
of 120 sites and 90 sites. Site infrastructure would include
waste disposal, water supply, hydro, washrooms, laundry,
picnic, first aid, supervi sory f ac i 1 i tie s, and a small
commercial outlet. Operating rules would allow family
groups, maximum three day stays, and 24-hour supervision.
.

B-315
The Family Farm in addition to being a conservation education .
facility would also provide visitors to the Kortright Centre
with these recreational opportunities.
- hay and pony rid e s ,
- craft demonstrations,
- farm-themed playground,
- puppet shows.
The Kortright Centre will continue to serve as the trail head
for the Boyd as well as the centre for cross-country skiing.
Most of the area north of Major MacKenzie Drive will be used
for resource management in combination with conservation
education.
ECONOMIC EVALUATION
Projected attendance levels were used to determine the scale
and size of the facilities proposed in the Master Plan.
The annual attendance for swimming is projected at 146,000
persons annually, which assumes a more even distribution of
attendance during the week than is currently achieved.
The campground is expected to have an attendance between
50,000 and 56,000 annually, assuming 120 day season and a
family comprising four people.
The Kortright Centre1s annual attendance is projected at
146,000, assuming improvements such as marketing, accessibi-
1 i ty to pub 1 i c , and reprogramming oriented more towards
family entertainment as well as education.
.
xvi
8-316
The Family Farm is projected to accommodate 104,000 annual
. attendance and Horseback Riding is projected at 19,000
annually.
Projected attendance at all fa c i 1 i tie s to tal 520,000 with
assumed duplication of attendance and consequent projection
of 345,000 people visiting the site annually.
The estimated capital cost for the Master Plan developments
to tal slightly under $7 million (1983 dollars). The maj or
I
components of that cost are:
- Campground $845,000,
- Southern recreation area $2,735,000,
- Family Farm $1,125,000,
- Demonstration Farm $500,000,
- Nursery $25,000, Resource Management Program -
. $1 million,
- and servicing and road improvements $690,000.
Pricing levels are recommended which assume that all f ac i 1 i -
ties except one will be developed and operated by MTRCA. The
exception is horseback riding, for which a private operator
might be encouraged to locate in the Area.
I Projections of income and expenses for the campground assume
that 120 camping sites will be opened three to four years
after approval of this Study has been granted with the
remaining 90 sites - added five to six years after. The
campground is projected to show an annual operating profit.
Similarly, the swimming pool is assumed to produce a profit.
I n to tal , net revenues of about $44,000 will be generated by
the site developments.

EFFECTING PROPOSALS
A management coordination and management team is proposed to
undertake evaluation and moni tori ng in the Boyd Area, to
coordinate planning, development, operation, maintenance,
visitor programs and marketing, and to be responsible for
implementation of the Master Plan.
Concurrently, a program would be undertaken for marketing the
site and its component parts, fa r ex amp 1 e , a program for the
Kortright Centre might bring its attendance up to the poten-
ti a 1 which is now not being achieved. The components of the
marketing progr am wi 11 include
- increasing Kortright Centre attendance,
- attracting people to new facilities,
- encouraging a more even distribution of people
throughout the site and during the year.
The implementation s t rat e gy is established to repay the
capi tal costs over eight years, to schedule activities and
facilities to provide opportunities for conservation-
education and recreation while managing the si te I s resources,
and to schedule the provision of infrastructure in a logical
sequence.
Annual capital costs by year, are
- Year I - $ 125,000
- Year II - 150,000
- Year I I I - 1,150,000
- Year IV - 1,945,000

FINANCIAL COMMENTS
Based on the existing financial situation, expenditures to the year end will
be slightly under budget, including non-budget expenditures of an additional
$27,000 for taxes at Petticoat Creek, an additional $25,000 for the Bruce's
Mi 11 swimming curtain, $3,000 replacement of the compressor at Heart Lake and
$9,000 to replace the Cold Creek Electric Trap
Revenue projections would indicate a shortfall of approximately $100,000 at
year end, due to the elimination of swimming at Claireville and Boyd, a
spring and early summer which has not been exceptionally hot, and rain on
Sundays reducing group picnic functions.
Area Superintendents have been instructed to review their operations and
reduce expenditures to accommodate this revenue shortfall

Conse'rvation Planning, Tree Planting/Forest Management, So11 Conservation/
Sediment Control, and Fish and Wildlife Management.
,
(1) The objective of Conservation Planning is to implement the planning
component of the Conservation Land Management Program by providing
technical advice to private and public landowners, preparing technical
guidelines for internal and external use and preparing management plans
for Authority lands.
( 2) The objective of Tree Planting/Forest Management is to implement the
management component of the Conservation Land Management Program through
reforestation, farm tree and shrub plantings on private lands, forest
and woodlot management on Authority lands and operation and development
of the Authority nursery.
( 3) The objective of Soil Conservation/Sediment Control is to implement the
sediment control component of the Conservation Land Management Program
, through stream improvement, fencing and planting on private, public and
Authority lands.
(4 ) The objective of Fish and Wildlife Management is to implement the
extension of the fisheries potential of headwater streams by carrying
out fish management projects on cold water streams following priority
lists, and by producing approximately 45,000 rainbow trout annually.

Financial Comments I
Conservation Planning program expenditures are in line for the second quarter
period with 46.6% of the budget spent
Forest Management/Tree Planting programs have been very active throughout the
second quarter. Nursery operation expenditures and revenue figures are in
excellent position for this time of year when there is normally a higher
percentage of expenditures.
Resource management program expenditures are lower than normal for this
period due to projects shifted to the third quarter. Reforestation revenue
projections were exceeded and tree and shrub revenues will be met in the fall
following the Urban Wildlife Program implementation.
Soil Conservation/Sediment Control program budgets are following projections
as stream improvement projects begun in May are scheduled to end in August.
Fish/Wildlife Management budget projections are in line for the second
quarter
Progress Review

Financial Comments
Vacation, sick and statutory holiday pay plus Promotions Officer activities account_
for Supervision being much above 1983 figures Gift Shop has held down purchases
due to anticipated storage moves due to Visitors Centre operation Livestock has
gained by use of COED to end of June Expenses relative to building repairs are
now in UOtherU and this section includes some costs associated with temporary
relocation of Gift Shop, Gate House etc.
Progress Review
A varied and reinforced program of special events is working well to extend our
visitors on site.
However, attendance figures are relatively disappointing. The bulk of the apparent
increase in numbers comes from Education Tours.
Relocation of Gift Shop activities has greatly increased Gift Shop revenue at the
expense of Village craft sales to some degree These sales should receive a boost
once the mill is back in operation.

the project will be completed by September 15, 1984 Actual receipts amount to
approximately $2,650,000
During the preparation of the 1984 preliminary budget it was anticipated that the
Masonic Temple/Hardware Store (Tinsmith) would have been built in 1983.
Construction delays pushed the project into 1984, but through oversight the budget
was not changed before receiving final approval Expenditures in 1984 should reach
$55,000, all of which has already been donated by the Masons of Ontario.

1985 PRELIMINARY BUDGET

TO The Chairman and Members of the Budget & Finance Sub-Committee
. FROM: W.A. McLean, General Manager
RE 1985 Preliminary Budget Estimates
The 1985 Preliminary Budget has been prepared in accordance with the
guidelines established by the Executive Committee, as recommended to them by the
Budget and Finance Sub-Committee. The estimates have been reviewed by the
Functional Advisory Boards, with the exception of the Finance and Administration
Section.
, The 1985 ~reliminary Budget includes a $2,261,740 increase over the 1984
Budget, or an 11. 4% increase. As was pointed out in the Review of the Authority,
the Authority's work is increasingly shifting to an operational mode affecting
the non-core programs, thus requiring greater financial support from member
municipalities.
This is evident in the estimates. Although the total increase is 11 4%, the
increase in required levy for support and operations is 25.7%. The increase in
capital ~rograms is as ~er approved projects and is entirely subject to the
availability of the applicable provincial grants Project files have been
submitted to the province for all capital ~rojects, but no information is
available as to which will be approved for grant.
The support and operational costs require close scrutiny. There are three
factors on which decisions must be made
.
- the required provincial administrative support grants beyond 1984 level;
- the required operational subsidy (levy) beyond 1984 level;
- the expected level of revenue increases resulting from fee increases,
marketing activities and new facilities and programs.

The following charts show the details of the items which have been included
in the ~reliminary budget to meet costs in excess of the 5% inflationary factor
which has been built into the budget calculation. These items are listed in an
order of priority which takes into account the impact of having them deleted.
The same criterion was used in the reports on che budget to the Advisory Boards.

.
In the absence of information from the Province of Ontario as to which items
will receive grants, it is not possible to make a specific recommendation for the
deletion of any single item from the priority list at the preliminary stage. It
is clear that, in order to initiate a major maintenance program and start up the
Visitors Centre, 1985 will have exceptional but non-recurring increases. These,
together with mandatory increases and staff requirements, incidate a minimum levy
increase of 16%.
These needs should be thoroughly discussed with the province and the member
munciipalities prior to the approval process for the final budget.
RECOMMENDATION
, THAT the 1985 Preliminary Budget, as recommended by the Functional Advisory
Boards, be approved and appended, together with the staff report "1985
Preliminary Budget Estimates", to the Minutes of Executive Committee Meeting
U5/84, scheduled for October 3, 1984;
~ND FURTHER THAT representatives of the Authority meet with appropriate officials
of the member municipalities to present and discuss the Authority's 1985 Budget
requirements prior to the final budget process

1985 BUDGET
Authority Purpose, Achievements and Objectives
The Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation ~uthority adopted a comprehensive Watarshed Plan on December 5, 1980, to
establish long-range goals in nine program areas specific to the 3467 square kilometres within Authority jurisdiction. The
adoption of the Plan is in compliance with the direction of the Conservation Authorities Act to undertake a program designed
to further the conservation, restoration, development and management of natural resources and of the Province of Ontario to
study and investigate the watershed and prepare and file with its member municipalities and the Minister of Natural Resources,
a Watershed Plan.
The Watershed Plan has been filed with, and concurred in by, the Autllority's member municipalites and the Director, Central
Region, Ministry of Nptural Resources The Authority, in the Plan, has identified the river valleys, the Lake Ontario
slloreline and the headwaters of the Oak Ridges interlobate moraine and the Niagara Escarpment as the major resources to which
its programs are applied.
"'he Watershed Plan is comprised of nine (9) interrelated programs
The basic requirement of the Authority is to provide protection to human life and property from the hazards of flooding and
erosion The Flood Control Program and three complementary programs, ~rosion and Sediment Control, Storm Water Management and
Conservation Land Management, establish the means to accomplisll this objective and recognize the relationships between rural
and urban drainage, erosion and sedimentation, and flooding
Flood Control Program - Provides Cor remedial measures, land acquisition and the administration of regulatory measures to
maintain flood plains unobstructed to ensure the passage of flood flows
Erosion and Sediment Control Program - Provides for corrective works and the administration of regulatory measures to protect
life and property
Storm Water Management Program - Establishes a basis for co-operative action by the Authority and its member municipalities
with respect to water management problems and the preparation of master drainage plans.
Conservation Land Management Program - Promotes conservation on private and public lands by providing reforestation, habitat
improvement, stream improvement and a conservation planning service.
Land Acquisition Program - Provides for the acquisition of flood plain and valley lands, waterfront lands and environmentally
significant lands to ensure proper conservation land management The hectares of land acquired by the Authority are
being managed to achieve the objectives of the Watershed Plan
Lake Ontario Waterfront Oevelo has two components, Shoreline Management to reduce the hazards of
flood ng and erosion and Development to create water-oriented recreation opportunities

Page 1-2
Watershed Hecr:eation pr:ogram - Enables the development and oper:ations of recreation ar:eas for publ ic use and enjoyment, a
valuable ancillar:y benefit on conservation lands
Heritage Conservation pr:ogr:am - Ilecognizes the special contr:ibution that an histor:ical per:llpective gives to the under:standlng
of resource management
Communi~elations P~ram - Establishes the means by which the Authority can communicate with t:he community in order to gain
under:standTng and acceptance of its conser:vation progr:ams
In 1903 the Author:ity completed a pr:ogr:am per:formance appr:alsal of the Water:shed Plan 1'he Province of Ontar:io, together: wi th
the Author:ity member: municipalities conducled a review of the Authority's or:ganlzation and mandate 'rhe 1905 Budget Estimates
derive fr:om the Water:shed Plan, the per: I'onnance appr:aisal and the review of the Authori ty. 1'he budget addresses a number of
issues r:aiseJ in the r:evlew, including -
- str:engthenin<] financial control
- up gr:ading maintenance
- increased municipal support (or non-cor:e pr:ogr:ams
- incr:eased marketing effort
- illcr:eased pr:ovincial fund i ng for cor:e pr:ogr:ams
It also deals with -
- disposition of municipal levies on hand
- pr:ovision for: gapping, set at l't of full-time wages, salaries and benefits
- identification and allocation of inter:est income
'rhe adoption of this Budget will enable the Aut:hor:ity to exceed the level of ser:vice provided to the commlln i ty in 1904 but
will not enable the \~atenilled Plan objectives to be implemented at the rate anticipated on adoption.
For:mat of Pr:esentatiol1
'fhe 1905 Rudget Estimates are based on the same pr:ogram management format: as in recent year:s The format is designed to
Identify more clearly the programs adopted by the Authority in its Watershed Plan ]n addition, the budget estimates are
organized into management units to more clearly identify and manage the Authority pr:ogr:ams 'l'he principles of progrnm budget
management have been used to develop the Budget

TO The Chairman and Members of the Executive Committee, M T R C A
Meeting ~ 15/84, Wednesday, October 3, 1984
. FROM W A. McLean, General Manager
RE REVIEW OF FINANCIAL AND ORGANIZATIONAL ISSUES
The above noted report prepared by the Metropolitan Toronto Management Services
Department was tabled at Meeting ~ll/84 of the Executive Committee and the
General Manager was directed to prepare a report The Metro report dealt with a
number of issues and made recommendations for Authority action. Since that
report has been in the hands of Executive Committee members for some time, I will
not deal with the narrative but just the recommendations for Authority action.
-1. It is recommended that the Authority create a senior position such
as Corporate Comptroller to assume responsibility within the
organization for the custodial, administrative and financial functions
presently occurring, in addition to implementing and updating
management controls and improvements as noted in this report.-
I
This is a key recommendation in the report This function and position is
required In the recommended organization chart (Appendix A) it is identified as
Director of Finance and Administration. The recommended function of the position
is set out in Appendix B The Executive Committee at Meeting *12/84 authorized
the extension of the Secretary-Treasurer's post retirement service until December
31, 1985. This extension will provide for a smooth transition of the
Secretary-Treasurer's responsibilities in Finance and Administration to the
Director during 1985 The statutory responsibilities of the Secretary-Treasurer
will remain with him until his retirement at the end of 1985
82. It is recommended that the Authority develop an action plan
identifying the financial and management improvements required and a
timeframe for their implementation.-
I The following management improvements are cited
performance measurement for program outputs:
. management information reporting:
program costing and program activity structures:
new project criteria and standards:
budgeting improvements:
strategic planning:
long and short range operational planning:
program evaluation and review
Of these improved systems for performance measurement, long and short range
operational planning and program evaluation are now in place In a recent staff
replacement appointment, technical capability for budget analysis and management
information reporting was included An early task of the Director of Finance and
I Administration will be to deal with the financial management improvements
recommended Eighteen months will be required to deal with all recommendations
-3. It is recommended that the Authority approach the Ministry of Natural
Resources with proposals to change the subsidy policies governing
administrative costs in order to provide additional funding to meet the
needs identified in the Report.8
The restrlcting of administration grants to an inflationary increase each year
for the past several years, has meant that more and more 'administrative'
responsibilities have been decentralized and carried out as a part of operations
The thrust of the review recommendations is to strengthen the administrative
controls by centralizing and upgrading administrative control capability This
process has already begun With the other organizational changes proposed in
this report it is not expected that need for additional administrative funds in
excess of the inflationary costs will be great The review report points out,
that as the improved system begins to function, the savings in other areas will
assist in offsetting any additional costs
84. It is recommended that the Authority approach Metro Toronto and the
. Regions for assistance in implementing recommendations 2 and 3.-
The assistance of member municipalities will be sought, as required
B-426
- 2 -
-5. It is recommended that the Authority develop and implement a project I
review process as set out in this review.-
The project review process set out in the report includes the examination of
proJects using the following criteria
project justification-cost/benefit;
operating budget impact of the proposal for future years;
project concurrence, sign offs, etc. by affected Divisions;
. staffing implications;
evaluation of aternatives where applicable;
consequences of not approving or deferring the project;
project assessment or evaluation and measurement requirement to report
back on project results compared with estimates;
how the project relates to Authority goals and objectives
The process recommended is sound and should be adopted as Authority procedure
-6. It is recommended that the Authority direct the General Manager to
undertake discussions with M.N.R. officials to resolve operational
problems associated with the provincial project approval process.-
The problems referred to are
the length of time some approvals take thus making implementation
difficult within a budget year;
. annual as opposed to multi-year funding commitments for land acquisition
and waterfront development
The discussions recommended should be held
-7. It is recommended that the position of secretary-Treasurer be changed
to Director, Administrative Services, and that the General Manager
assume the statutory appointment of secretary-Treasurer.-
This matter was partially dealt with in Recommendation *1 When the present
Secretary-Treasurer retires at the end of 1985, action on this recommendation can
be taken
-S. It is recommended that the Deputy General Manager assume operating
responsibility for all program areas and that the existing
Administrator positions report directly to that position.
12. It is recommended that the Authority create a position of
Administrator, Program Development reporting directly to the Deputy
General Manager and with responsibility for the development and
implementation of policies and programs with respect to marketing and
information and food services for all program areas.- ·
These two recommendations, together with Recommendation *1 dealing with a senior
custodial position for administrative and financial functions, are the key
'organizational' recommendations
Much consideration has been given to the position of Deputy General Manager It
has been variously thought of as necessary by some and supurfluous, and
contributing to a top heavy management by others The Deputy General Manager
function as described in the review report is necessary, particularly under the
Authority's present management system of divisions based on program Given the
relatively small size of the Authority's operation, it is preferable to employ a
management system which vests the operational responsibility in management units
which can function in a coordinated manner under a senior executive and also
providing greater scope for senior managers to participate more fully in the
corporate management of the Authority The cost of a Deputy General Manager
saved, the funds will assist in meeting management improvement costs in other
areas, particularly finance and administration
The management units proposed are

PIONEER VILLAGE
The review report points out that it may be as well to have the Administrator of
. Historical Sites report directly to the General Manager until the current
development and administrative initiatives are complete and functioning The
Pioneer Village is a unit in itself unlike the field centres and the Kortright
Centre which are part of conservation areas, thus it can function as a discrete
unit. There are two exceptions, marketing and major maintenance which are
assigned to Program Services and Operations respectively
-9. It is recommended that the Planning Coordinator be eliminated and
responsibility for coordination of this activity be that of the
Administrator, Water Resource Division.-
The Planning Coordinator presently functions as an assistant to the General
Manager One of the functions is plan review respecting municipal official
plans This function can be assigned to the Water Resource Division The
General Manager will still require assistance in policy and planning coordination
including
report preparation:
direccing interdivisional activities;
research:
represent General Manager
.
The assistance to the General Manager should be retained A description of a
Planning and Policy Coordinator function is set out in Appendix B.
8-428
- 4 -
-10. It is recommended that the Personnel Officer no longer report
directly to the General Manager, but be transferred to the
Administrative Services Division and report to the Director of that
Division.-
This has been provided for in the assignment of functions in the foregoing
section
-II. It is recommended that the Authority create a new position, Manager,
Corporate Planning, reporting directly to the General Manager to assist
the General Manager in the development and implementation of Corporate
policies and programs.-
In the proposed alternative organization structure to that recommended in the
review report, the key responsibility for corporate planning lies with the
General Manager, acting on advice from senior managers
With the exception of the Director of Finance and Administration, the proposed
organization does not require engaging additional senior management staff A
cost comparison between the existing and proposed senior management organization
structure, based on actual 1984 salaries and recognizing increased
responsibilities to some individuals as a result of reorganization, would be
approximately $439,527 for the existing structure and $400,434 for the proposed
structure (based on 1984 dollars) The senior management complement is reduced
by one, the Deputy-General Manager The Directors' jobs are a realignment of
present responsibilities with the delegation of responsibility presently vested
in the General Manager's position to "Direct and Coordinate" the programs
assigned to them The review report envisaged this as being the main task of a
Deputy General Manager It is proposed that present staff would be assigned to
the realigned and upgraded positions as follows
Director of Water Resource Programs - J C Mather
Director of Program services - T E Barber
Director of Field Operations - P B Flood
W E Jones will remain as Secretary-Treasurer and perform in accordance with his
existing terms of reference until his retirement on December 31, 1985 R K
Cooper will continue as Administrator, Historical Sites Division, under slightly
modified terms of reference with respect to major maintenance at Pioneer Village
The system proposed represents a new approach to management for the Authority and
new assignments for senior management staff The performance of the system and
recommendations for modification should be reviewed periodically
RECOMMENDATIONS
It is recommended that the General Manager's report on "Review of Financial and
organizational Issues" be approved and in this connection, the General Manager be
instructed to take the following action .
(1 ) Make provision in the 1985 Budget Estimates to engage the services of a
Director of Finance and Administration to overlap with the pre-retirement
period of the Secretary-Treasurer;
(2 ) Develop an action plan and timeframe for the implementation of the
management improvements cited in the review, and seek the assistance and
advice of member municipalities as required;
(3 ) Develop and implement a project review process as set out in the review;
(4 ) Undertake discussions with Ministry of Natural Resources' officials to
resolve operational problems associated with the provincial project approval
process;
(5 ) Review the staff structure of the Authority and make recommendations for
appointments and reassignments of staff to give effect to the organization
structure and functions set out in Appendices "A" and "B" of this report by
January 1, 1985

EROSION CONTROL AND SLOPE STABILIZATION .
IN METROPOLITAN TORONTO
1985 PROGRAM
INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this report is to outline the progress of the Erosion
Control and Slope Stabilization Project for Metropolitan Toronto; which
is designed to carry out the following
(a) Major erosion control and slope stabilization remedial works
conducted on a priority basis for watersheds draining in excess of
1,300 hectares,
In view of the large number of sites requiring erosion control and bank
stabilization work throughout Metropolitan Toronto, major remedial work
is undertaken on a priority basis Using the original priority ratings
listed in the MacLaren report of 1970 as a starting point, the rate of
progress and deterioration of these sites is assessed annually and
ranked accordingly The priorities within this pool change continually
in response to the dynamics of the erosion process at each site, and
therefore we strive to ameliorate the list with a steady influx of
technical data on site conditions The current top priorities are
reflected in the major remedial work program for 1985 and the 'Pool of
Priority Sites' which are found in respective sections of this report
The current pool of priorities will be reviewed regularly during 1985 to
accomodate any significant changes and the possible inclusion of new
sites Also lncluded in the 1985 work program are four minor remedial
work sites This type of work is designed to be preventative in nature,
whereby the immedlate implementation of a small amount of protective
work will prevent the development of a serious and more costly problem
in the future
1985 is the first year of the 1985 - 1986 Project for Erosion Control
and Slope Stabilization in Metropolitan Toronto This project has
budgeted $519,100 00 for the 1985 program

EROSION CONTROL AND SLOPE STABILIZATION
IN THE REGIONAL MUNICIPALITY OF PEEL
~ 1985 PROGRAM
INTRODUCTION
Given the number of sites requiring erosion control and slope stabilization
work throughout the Region of Peel, major remedial work is undertaken on a
priority basis The original priority ratings listed in the Erosion Inventory
and Priorities Study of 1977 were used as a starting point in assessing the
rate of progress and deterioration of erosion sites A 'Pool of Erosion Sites'
was prepared from this study and is continually updated with new sites
experiencing erosion problems The technial priorities within this pool are
reviewed on a regular basis to reflect the dynamics of the erosion processes at
each specific site
The annual work program, which was formulated on a priority basis using the
1985 'Pool of Erosion Sites', and the sites bearing high priority ratings are
listed if> the respective sections of this report
I
It should be noted that in the Region of Peel, the municipal share of the costs
of erosion control program are passed on to the local municipalities As a
result, the erosion priority pool is given with relative priorities on a
regional basis and divided to coincide with the three local municipalities
within the Region of Peel, namely, the Town of Caledon, -the City of Brampton
and the City of Mississauga
1985 is the first year of the 1985-1986 Project for Erosion Control and Slope
Stabilization in the Regional Municipality of Peel The budget for the 1985
Work Program is $30,000 00

Summary
Aquatic Park Environmental Study .
1978-1982
1 INTRODUCTION
The Eastern Headland, often referred to as the Leslie Street Spit, extends in
a south-westerly direction from the filled Crown land located at the base of
Leslie Street in Toronto It is a man-made peninsula, or spit, extending
five kilometres into Lake Ontario The total land area is 101 ha , and the
water embayments comprise an additional 46 ha
Construction of the site was initiated in 1959 for the purpose of providing
expanded port facilities However by 1972, the Toronto Harbour
Commissioners determined that the entire Eastern Headland was no longer
required for port expansion, and alternatively a large portion of it could be
made available to the public in the form of an Aquatic Park In 1973 the
Province of Ontario appointed the MTRCA as its agent for the development of
this site
Since the initiation of the MTRCA planning process for Aquatic Park in 1974,
site conditions have changed dramatically through the processes of natural
succession Accordingly, the MTRCA deemed it appropriate to initiate a new
master planning exercise for Aquatic Park To this end a Task Force was
formed in January 1983 to assist the Authority in the preparation of a
Master Plan for Aquatic Park
The planning exercise is being undertaken as a typical MTRCA master plan
One of the many inltial steps in this process involves reviewing information
concerning the site's biophysical resources It is intended that the
eomprehensive information contained in this five-year study will provide
valuable input to the master plan process and assist the Task Force
throughout this planning process ,
Objectives of the Study
The primary objectives of the study were to determine the environmentally
significant areas of Aquatic Park, to determine present successional trends,
and to predict possible future trends These background data would then be
available for input into the preparation of a Master Plan
Study Process
In order to accomplish the objectives of this study, a detailed analyses of
vegetation, soils, birds, mammals, reptiles and amphibians, fish, and
butterflies and skippers, was undertaken
.

. 2. VEGETATION
Eleven distinct community types were identified, which collectively contain
278 species of vascular plants Of these, 14 have been identified as being
nationally and/or provincially and/or regionally rare, while a further seven
are accorded the status of regionally uncommon Many of these are pioneer
plant species which quickly became established on the bare substrate of the
newly built headland. Several of these rare and uncommon species have
recently experienced a decrease in abundance or have disappeared altogether
in response to rapid successional changes.
3 ~
,
Areas of the headland used by nesting Ring-billed Gulls contained soils with
excessive to high nutrient levels This is due to the high concentration of
nesting birds which add guano to the soil at an estimated rate of 42
tonnes/hectare/year The most nutrient poor soils were found in areas where
scrub cottonwood and willow grow.
A comparison of 1978 and 1980 soil data has determined that the presence of
nesting gulls has resulted in an increase in the nutrient content of the
. soils There has also been a notable increase in the depth of leaf litter
since 1978 In general the headland's soils are improving in structure as
organic matter is incorporated and presently exhibit distinct soil horizons
4. ~
Between February 1978 and September 1982 a total of 207 species of birds
were observed at Aquatic Park Of these, 162 were recorded only during
spring and fall migration. The remaining 30 species resided at the site
throughout the summer, of which 27 provided irrefutable evidence of breeding
I The distributions of gull, tern and night-heron colonies, as well as the
specific nest locations of less abundant species were recorded on maps at
the conclusion of each field season Comparison of these maps indicates how
the areas occupied by gulls and terns have undergone a series of expansions
and contractions, as a result of associated vegetational changes.
5 MAMMALS
Three species of small rodents, Deer Mouse, House Mouse and Meadow Vole,
were captured in 1980 No House Mice were found in 1982, suggesting that
this pest is now absent from Aquatic Park
.
/3
B-478
- 3 - .
By employing both the Schumacher Method and the Lincoln Index, population
density estimates were derived for Deer Mice and Meadow Voles In 1980 Deer
Mice averaged 40 6 individuals per hectare In 1982 the mean population
estimate was calculated at 102 9 individuals per hectare, a considerable
increase over the previous total Both estimates exceed the average of
20-27 individuals per hectare recorded elsewhere in southern Ontario
Frequency of capture data per Meadow Voles suggest that this species also
experienced a significant population increase between 1980 and 1982
Incidental observations made over the course of the three field seasons have
revealed the presence of 13 additional mammal species on the headland
6 REPITLES AND AMPHIBIANS
The herpetofaunal diversity of Aquatic Park is restricted to four resident
species Although each is common in terms of abundance, the low diversity
is indicative of the relatively young age of the headland and will likely
increase overtime A fifth, regionally rare species, the Blanding's Turtle,
has been recorded on only one occasion and is likely now absent from the
. site
7 FISH
To date, a total of 42 fish species and one additional hybrid have been
recorded from the water surrounding Aquaic Park An investigation of the
feeding habits of the Common and Caspian Terns nesting at Aquatic Park has
revealed that several of the fish species found offshore constitute a major
portion of the birds' diet
8 BUTTERFLIES AND SKIPPERS .
A total of 28 species of butterflLes and skippers were recorded at Aquatic
Park during this study While most are commonly found throughout the area
under MTRCA jurisdiction, several are of regional interest One species,
the Buckeye, is an extremely local breeder in the Province and is only found
at Aquatic Park due to the widespread presence of its larval foodplant,
slender-leaved Gerardia
During the months of September and October it is not uncommon to observe
hundreds of Monarch butterflies passing through the area en route to their
wintering grounds in Mexico

9. SUCCESSION
.
The original vegetational mosaic of Aquatic Park was characterized by
opportunistic plant species able to withstand nutrient poor soil, exposure
to wind desiccation and soil moisture deficiency Of the 152 vascular
plants known from the site by 1916, the vast majority were grasses and weedy
herbaceous perennials
More recently, extensive groves of Eastern Cottonwoods and Sandbar Willows
have become established along the margins of the peninsulas The higher and
drier interiors of the peninsulas have remained bare. While these open
distal portions continue to support large numbers of nesting Ring-billed
I Gulls, the rapid growth rate of cottonwoods and willows at this site has
recently caused a reduction in the amount of nesting habitat available
From 1916 to 1982, the diversity of plant species, the total biomass and
density, and the number of distinct vegetation communities have all
increased One of the most pronounced successional trends has been an
increase in the number of woody stemmed tree and shrub species from 12 in
1918 to 29 in 1982.
Although the number of distinctive plant communities has also increased
. (from seven in 1918 to 11 in 1982), the most significant change has been
the increased complexity and iternal structure of these communities
Willows and cottonwoods have more than doubled in size since 1916
The forest canopy has become more dense and closed, eliminating shade
intolerent species from the understorey and ground cover strata
Much of Aquatic Park is presently experiencing a rapid transition from a
pioneer community of low herbs to an immature deciduous woodlands Current
successional trends suggest that, if allowed to change naturally, these
. woodland areas will develop an increasingly more stable community structure
Changes in the composition of the breeding bird community has closely
paralled the successional sequence of vegetation and habitat Prior to 1915
only two colonial ground nesting species, Common Tern and Ring-billed Gull,
occupied the headland In the past decade however, rapid changes in the
height and diverSity of the vegetation has been accompanied by a
correspondingly rapid increase in the diversity and abundance of breeding
birds The transition from an early to a mid-seral stage of avifaunal
succession is marked by the appearance of tree and shrub nesting species
.
/5
B-480
- 5 -
.
Since the headland was constructed the dominant faunal feature of the site
has been its large Ring-billed Gull colony Changes in the relative
population of this and other species are indicated in the accompanying
table Several bird species that once nested are now absent This pattern
of specles replacement and turnover is characteristic of primary ecological
succession
Future changes in the composition of breeding bird communities will be
strongly influenced by habitat changes As the physiography of the
vegetation increases in complexity, a greater range of avian niches will
become available, leadlng to an overall increase in bird species diversity
Ground nesting species will decline in abundance and within several decades
it is anticipated that much of the site will be unsuitable for gulls and
terns
10 ENVIRONMENTALLY SIGNIFICANT AREAS
Based on the information obtained as a result of this study, the MTRCA in
1982, designated Aquatic Park as an Environmentally Significant Area ( ESA)
The environmental significance of Aquatic Park has been determined on the
basis of the following the area has a high concentration of nesting colonial
waterbirds, the area is a significant stopover for migratory birds; the area
possesses suitable habitat for nesting populations of bird species with
limi ted representation in the MTRCA region and the Province of Ontario, and
the area supports 36 nationally/provincially/regionally rare specles of
plants and animals
11 THREATS TO THE ENVIRONMENTALLY SIGNIFICANT AREAS
Actual and potential threats to the significant biophysical resources of the
site were addressed in this stud Y
,
Dune areas, sandy beach strands and wet meadow are ephemeral habitats which
presently support many of the headland's rare plants The continued
existence of these significant plant associations are threatened by
processes of natural succession
.
Many of the significant pioneer plants which originally covered extensive
areas of the headland have either decreased in abundance or disappeared
altogether Displacement from open sandy areas has been caused by the
presence of nesting gulls
A number of natural and man-induced threats to the area's significant fauna
have also been recognized Common Tern colonies are subject to periodic
flooding as a result of storms and fluctuating lake levels

. Predation by Great Horned Owls, Red Fox, Racoons and Skunks has been
implicated in reduced reproductive success experienced by Black-crowned
Night-Herons, Ring-billed Gulls, and Common and Caspian Terns
Vegetational succession and competition for nest sites by Ring-billed Gulls
have been cited as factors in the progressive annual decline of nesting
Common Terns at Aquatic Park.
The detrimental effects of human intrusion into a gull or tern colony ranges
from wanton destruction of eggs and chicks to disturbance of incubating or
brooding birds. The latter results in prolonged exposure of eggs and
I chicks to temperature stress and predators
Several Great Lakes studies have noted a correlation between high toxi~ant
levels in fish and reproductive failure in fish-eating birds. While there
is yet no evidence to suggest that contaminants have had a detrimental
effect upon the nesting gulls, terns and night-herons of Aquatic Park, the
presence of these compounds in Lake Ontario fish nevertheless poses a
potential threat

ADDENDUM .
Aquatic Park Environmental Study Update, 1984
1 INTRODUCTION
Periodic visits were made to Aquatic Park during the summer of 1984 to
monitor environmental changes which have occurred at the site Time and
manpower restrictions did not allow as complete an inventory as has been
conducted in previous years Field work was therefore concentrated on
reassessing the significant floral and faunal aspects of the site to
determine changes in the status, abundance and distribution of rare and
uncommon vascular plants and rare breeding birds
2 VASCULAR PLANTS
2 1 Nationally Rare Species
Previous botanical inventories had revealed the presence of four nationally
rare species at Aquatic Park Winged Pigweed (Cycloloma atriplicifolium)
could not be found and is presumed to be no longer extant This is not
unexpect.ed since the species is typical of a pioneer successional stage and
had been undergoing a gradual decline in abundance in recent years
Two late season emergents, Engelmann's Umbrella-sedge (Cyperus engelmannii)
and Rusty Umbrella-sedge (C ferruginescens), continue to form extenshe
low-lying mats on exposed mudflats and sandy beach strands These species
flower in September and October and are entirely dependent upon dropping
lake levels
Three-square Bulrush (Scirpus americanus) continues to thrive along ,
shorelines and 1n wet meadow habitat
2 2 Provincially Rare Plants
Bushy Cinquefoil (Potentilla paradoxa), once considered the dominant ground
cover species at Aquatic Park, has decreased in abundance since 1982
Although still widespread, its distribution has become fragmented into
isolated pockets The decline of this species is primarily due to the
maturation of willows and cottonwood scrub, eliminating much of the ground
cover stratum At present, Bushy Cinquefoil is restricted to sandy
shorelines and the open edges of the gull colonies
.
/2
8-485
- 2 -
110 2 3 Regionally Rare Plants
The distribution of Baltic Rush (Juncus balticus) is largely unchanged,
forming dense clumps at base of each peninsula Golden Dock (~
maritimus) occupies sandy shoreline habitat, and like the two
umbrella-sedges is dependant upon fluctuating water levels Sea-rocket
(Cakile edentula), a distinctive "dune~ species, has been all but eliminated
from the headland. Once dominant on the sandy ridges of Peninsula 0, this
species is now confined to a small stand numbering 12 individual plants
It presently grows in an open sandy area where repeated human disturbance
has prevented the invasion of willow saplings.
I Wormwood (Artemesia campestris ssp caudata) is prevalent around the
perimeter of the open gull nesting areas. The distribution of this
species, which flowers after the birds' departure, appears to have
increased slightly. Other regionally rare species (Aquatic Sedge, Woolly
Sedge, Prairie Panic Grass and Redhead Pondweed) could not be located, and
are probably no longer extant on the headland
Several stations of Moss-like Love-grass (Eragrostis hypnoides), a small
creeping grass not previously known from Aquatic Park, were found, usual~y
in assoc1ation with umbrella-sedges
I
2.~ Regionally Uncommon Plants
The majority of the six species in this category were previously known from
individual plants All but one, False Pimpernel (Lindernia ~), went
unaccounted for
A small patch of Virginia Lyme grass (Elymus virginicus) was found on the
edge of Peninsula C This species is only known from four other sites in
the MTRCA watershed.
.
3. ~
3.1 Breeding Species
Mid-summer censuses of colonial waterbirds conducted by Canadian Wildlife
Service personnel revealed the following population figures (totals reflect
approximate numbers of nesting pairs)
Ring-billed Gull 75564
Herring Gull 92
Common Tern 1350 .:.!:
Caspian Tern 215 .:.!:

The resident Ring-billed Gull population did not show an increase over 1982 .
figures, but remained relatively constant However the availability of
suitable habitat has decreased, suggesting that nest density has increased
Efforts to prevent gulls from nesting on the new endikement were highly
successful
Herring Gulls continued to nest in loosely scattered colonies throughout
the headland and, in numbers, displayed neither an appreciable increase nor
decrease
Common Terns colonized large portions of the new endikement despite the
presence of teathered birds of prey Elsewhere on the headland this
species had mixed nesting success Several low-lying islands were
inundated with water as a result of late spring storms, causing egg
loss and subsequent desertion Many of these displaced terns apparently
renested on the new endikement Vegetation removal, combined with the
placement of wooden tern decoys, were successful in attracting over 800
pairs to a sand ridge at the north tip of Peninsula C
All breeding Caspian Terns were again confined to the traditional
sand-gravel hummocks on Peninsula B This species is now well established
at this site and is apparently thriving The gradual increase in the
number of nesting pairs suggests that this species is better able to
compete with Ring-billed Gulls for choice nesting sites and also less
susceptible to human disturbance and predators
Black-crowned Night-Herons continued to nest in groves of tall cottonwoods
on Peninsula B This species has not given any strong indication of
expanding either in numbers or distribution
Great Black-backed Gull (Larus marinus) and California Gull (Larus
californicus) have not bred at Aquatic Park since 1982
,
3 2 Migrant Species
Aquatic Park as a whole is still extremely attractive to a great variety of
birds during spring and fall migration Since 1982 a number of migrant
species have been recorded for the first time, bringing the cumulative bird
species total to 266 The establishment of breeding territories by several
migrant species, Willow Flycatcher (Empidonax traillii) , Yellow Warbler
(Dendroica petechia), and Northern Waterthrush (Seiurus noveboracensis)
indicates that wooded habitats are becoming increasingly more favourable as
nesting sites Two species, Black-billed Cuckoo (Coccyzus americanus) and
Barn Swallow (Hirundo rustica) successfully nested at Aquatic Park for the
first time in 1984
. I
By 1 ate summer when lake levels subside the exposed shorelines continue to
attract a great diversity of waterbirds

FINANCIAL COMMENTS
Under the Metropolitan Toronto Water Pollution Committee Program, total
funding for the improvements to the Humber River Mouth have been made
available through the MOE This has enabled the Authority to complete
the work at an estimated total cost of $170,000.00 This represents
a $70,000 increase over the approved 1984 budget bue does not affect the
- overall budget since the Provincial grant is being paid by MOE not MNR
Anticipated funding from the Province and the Federal Government under
the Flood Plain Mapping Review Program were not realized and therefore
this activity has been eliminated for 1984
PROGRESS REVIEW
Regular maintenance of Authority Water Control Structures and the
. Operation and Maintenance of the Dams and Flood Warning System is being
carried out on an ongoing basis
Work on the Bolton Project is complete
Remedial flood control work in Pickering/Ajax is in progress.
The contract for rehabilitating the Goodwood Pumping Station has been

Metro Erosion budget was restored to $400,000 in flex funding allocations
Delays in OMB approvals for the Metro share of the Bellamy Ravine funding
postponed the start of the planned studies and design work until
September It will be difficult to complete all of the work by year end
The shoreline management program is on target
The total budget for shoreline management is increased by $40,000 00 to
cover the cost of proposed emergency erosion control measures at
Gibraltar Point at Toronto Islands Provincial grant for this work came
from deletion of The Coatsworth Cut dredging from the major maintenance
budget
PROGRESS REVIEW .
The final approval for the Highland Creek Project has been received and
remedial works are scheduled for later this year
Major remedial works at Raymore Drive and Moorevale Park Ravine in Metro
have been completed Also four Erosion Control and Slope Stability
Studies have been awarded and are in progress
The remedial works in York are in progress and are nearing completion
while the works in Pe~l are scheduled for latter this year

- the core of that portion of the revetment proposed for construction in
1984 at South Marine Drive has been completed and final armouring is
expected to be completed by October 17th
- the construction of the next stage of shoreline protection at Lakehurst
Crescent was completed on September 27th The work included protection
of a sanitary sewer in accordance with an agreement between MTRCA and
the City of Scarborough

FINANCIAL COMMENT
Construction was underway at all sites over the summer period with the
exception of East Point Park where work will be undertaken in October and
November
MNR approval was received to reallocate $30,000 from East Point
Environmental Assessment to East Point Park Development
MNR had advised that dredging of Coatsworth Cut originally budgetted in
major maintenance must be financed from capital development and therefore
funds have been reallocated from Sam Smith Waterfront Area to cover that
work

Progress Review
..
Planning The Boyd Master Planning Study Report is currently being revised
to address comments received from the various agencies, groups
and individuals during the pre-submission review These changes
and the final printing of the report should be completed by
mid-November at which time the Plan will be submitted for formal
approval under the Environmental Assessment Act.
Development Construction of the Claireville Washroom and Refreshment Building
was delayed during the third quarter pending the selection of a
new site for the facility.
Originally, the building was to be constructed in the south day
use area to serve the needs of the water based recreationists
However, a recent proposal to develop a water park in this area
has eliminated the need for such a facility
The building will now be located west of the Highway 50 entrance
in Claireville's most attractive picnic areas
Approval of the new site plan and septic system has now been
obtained and construction is to commence the third week in
October
Sundry Conservation Area development is essentially complete
Gravel has been purchased for the construction of the first phase
of the pedestrian path linking Indian Line with Claireville
However, there is a shortage of labour under the Canada Works
program to complete this work.

FINANCIAL COMMENTS
I
Based on the existing financial situation, expenditures to the year end wilT
be slightly under budget ($8,000), includi~g non-budget expenditures of an
additional $27,000 for taxes at Petticoat Creek, an additional $25,000 for
the Bruce's Mill swimming curtain, $3,000 replacement of the compressor at
Heart Lake and $9,000 to replace the Cold Creek Electric Trap.
Revenue projections indicate a shortfall of approximately $27,400 at year
end. This is due to elimination of swimming at Boyd and Claireville and the
loss of swimming at Brucels Mill as a result of poor water quality.
Area Superintendents have been instructed to review their operations and
reduce expenditures to accommodate this revenue shortfall.
PROGRESS REVIEW
. During the third quarter of 1984, seven Conservation Areas and two Forest and
Wildlife Areas were open for recreation activities.
The swimming program concluded in all Areas on Labour Day. During the
season, the lifeguard in-service training progra~ was upgraded through weekly
drills in each Area and concluded with the First Annual Lifeguard Competition
won by the Petticoat Creek staff.
At Albion Hills, the monthly Rambling Hills Riding Club horse shows cqncluded
in September as did the Family Camping season with total camper days being
down approximately 800 from 1983. The Ontario Orienteering Championships
were held at Albion Hills in September with 175 participants.
During July, an Antique Car Show was held at Bruce's Mill and at Glen Haffy,
the Fishing Derby was agafn run successfully with prizes provided by
Labatt's.
During the summer, the Ontario Water Ski Association held tournaments at
their site in the Claireville Reservoir. Three canoe courses were conducted
with a total of 20 participants. The August Rodeo was a well run and
. entertaining event but attendance was considerably less than anticipated.
B-504 C-5
At Cold Creek during this period, three Hunter Safety Courses with a total of
52 participants were conducted The Clubs concerned held successful Husky ..
Dog shows and a model airplane "Fun-Fly" A Bow Hunting Seminar planned for
Labour Day weekend was cancelled due to lack of registration Club sponsored
turkey shoots commenced in September

Program Objective
The Conservation Land Management Program of the Watershed Plan identifies six
principle objectives which are carried out by the following activities
Conservation Planning, Tree Planting/Forest Management, Soil Conservation/
Sediment Control, and Fish and Wildlife Management.
( 1) The objective of Conservation Planning is to implement the planning
component of the Conservation Land Management Program by providing
technical advice to private and public landowners, preparing technical
guidelines for internal and external use and preparing management plans ,
for Authority lands
( 2) The objective of Tree Planting/Forest Management is to implement the
management component of the Conservation Land Management Program through
reforestation, farm tree and shrub p1antings on private lands, forest
and woodlot management on Authority lands and operation and development
of the Authority nursery
( 3) The objective of Soil Conservation/Sediment Control is to implement the
sediment control component of the Conservation Land Management Program
through stream improvement, fencing and planting on private, public and
Authority lands
( 4) The objective of Fish and Wildlife Management is to implement the
extension of the fisheries potential of headwater streams by carrying
out fish management projects on cold water streams following priority
lists, and by producing approximately 45,000 rainbow trout annually.

Financial Comments
Vacation, sick and statutory holiday pay plus Promotions Officer activities account
for Supervision being much above 1983 figures. Livestock has gained by use of COED
. to end of June. Expenses relative to building repairs are now in "Other" and this
section includes some costs associated with temporary relocation of Gift Shop, Gate
House etc.
Proqress Review
A varied and reinforced program of special events is working well to extend our
visitors on site.
Attendance figures continue to rise. Approximately one-half of the increase in
numbers comes from Education Tours
Relocation of Gift Shop activities has greatly increased Gift Shop revenue at the
expense of Village craft sales to some degree. House sales should receive a boost
now the mill is back in operation.

Comments
Total expenditures, including holdbacks on the Visitors Centre amount to
$3,192,878, representing approximately 87\ of the project budget. It is estimated
I the project will be completed by approximately November 1, 1984. Actual receipts
amount to approximately $2,690,000.
During the prepa~ation of the 1984 preliminary budget it was anticipated that the ;
Masonic Temple/Hardware Store (Tinsmith) would have been built in 1983.
Construction delays pushed the project into 1984, but through oversight the budget
was not changed before receiving final approval. Expenditures in 1984 should reach
$55,000, all of which has already been donated by the Masons of Ontario.
Village staffroom is 2/3 completed and will be complete in November.

1. INTRODUCnON
The case for recreation as an increasingly central element in man's quest III
for fulfillment, no longer needs to be made. Significant changes in the
industrial production process, stimulated by technological advances, have
diminished the role of work as source of meaning, satisfaction and
direction in people's lives, thus challenging its dominating place on western
society's scale of values.
In all industralized countries, but more specifically on the North American
continent, individuals and governments alike have come to realize that the j
non-work portion of people's lives is occupying an increasingly important
place, not only quantitatively, but more particularly, as a potential source
of human growth and development, hence, the acknowledged importance
attached to recreation as one of the central values in human existence.
Governments at all levels, in their efforts to improve the quality of life of
their citizens, have progressively become involved in the provision of
recreation opportunities with a view to making these as meaningful and
valuable as possible.
In this process, it has become recognized that the municipal government
ought to be the focus of this involvement, since it is the closest to the
people and is therefore, in the best position to respond quickly and
effectively to the expressed needs in matters of recreation.
.
The role of the Provincial Government in the application of this principle is
crucial for a variety of reasons. First of all, since the municipalities are
creations of the provinces and depend on provincial enabling legislation to
permit. them to offer recreation programs, areas and facilities, it is
imperative that the Provincial Government enacts legislation that enables
municipalities to provide programs and services. The province also has the
responsibility to ensure that the municipalities h~ve the capacity to
respond adequately to the demands of their constituents. This requirement
becomes especiall y pressing in times of shrinking resources and,
.
paradoxically, growing demands.
Another reason for the Provincial Government's involvement in community
B-560
-
, - 2-
..- recreation stems from its ability to respond to needs of an extra-municipal
'"
t. __ nature; needs that are not peculiar to a given municipality, but that are
common to all citizens of Ontario. The current fitness promotion programs
- are a good example, as are the many initiatives in the area of tourism.
I -
I The pattern of growth of recreation in Ontario has resulted in the
involvement of a multiplicity of ministries in the recreation field, albeit in
r most cases, as a consequence of programs with a different primary
I
L .. purpose, for example, the Ministry of Community and Social Services
lr- through its Elderly Person's Act, the Ministry of Natural Resources through
\. - its Parks Assistance Act, and the Provincial Secretary for Resources
r- Development through its Niagara Escarpment Planning and Development
) Act.
,-.
r-
. F or the purpose of ensuring efficient use of available resources, consisting
,--
in support programs and balance in services, it is essential that these
r -. involvements be based commonly agreed philosophy and
" on a upon
!
,- universally accepted policies. Therefore, the Ministry of Tourism and
,- Recreation, as lead ministry in the area, has initiated discussions with
J
other ministries, municipal governments and various client groups,
resulting in the formulation of a number of policy statements contained in
- this document.
i
I These statements are not meant to curtail the autonomy and/or freedom of
-L
operation of other agencies involved in the provision of recreation
I programs and/or services, but rather to offer comprehensive guidelines
t I
".4 within which all elements of the Ontario recreation system can function
r -. . and develop in an effective and coordinated manner.
I
....J. .
r
! 2. DEFINITION OF TERMS
\0-
r -
I a) Policy
..
r-' A policy is a consciously chosen course of action directed towards
I
!
- some end.
r'
J
i
'--'
~Jj-::>O J.
- 3-
This implies that a policy aims at achieving specific goals and
..
objectives, thus providing direction to those who are charged with its
implementation.
b) Leisure
.
Leisure is seen as a concept of time, more specifically, un-obligated
time or discretionary time; time that it left after a person has
fulfiUed his/her obligations, be they work, physiologically, or socially
related; therefore, time one can occupy as one wishes. ,
It is important to realize that this concept is not exclusively a
quantitative one; being able to use the available options pre-supposes
that one's basic subsistance and survival needs are met, otherwise,
one is not able to freely dispose of whatever un-obligated time one
has. This pre-requisite places a heavy responsibility on government
agencies whose mission is to enhance the quality of life of all
citizens.
c) Recreation
Recreation is defined as "all those things a person or group chooses to
do in order to make leisure time more interesting, more enjoyable
and more satisfying". .
This definition was unanimously accepted at the 1971f. Conference of
Provincial Ministers responsible for Sport and Recreation and further
enunciated in the Interprovincial Recreation Statement, adopted in
October, 1983.
The central element of this definition is that of choice which, in turn,
implies the freedom to choose, freedom and choice are central to the
recreation concept and their recognition and safeguarding, basic to
any government involvement.
.
The second element is the fact that recreation activities can be
pursued individually as well as collectively. Again, the choice is a
B-562
,--
- 4-
r- personal one and opportunities ought to be provided for both options.
II
r-- The last aspects to be noted are those of satisfaction, interest and
,
i enjoyment, indicating that recreation experiences ought to be
i
-- emotionally, psychologically, socially and intellectually enriching.
, I
Crucial to all of this is the fact that recreation is a personal concept,
,.....
! . and that its focal point is the individual as a total human being, a
person who is not only worker but also player, who is not solely a
I
[-- rational being, but a creature with emotions, dreams, fantasies,
\ spontaneity, needs and desires; who is not simply a cog in the social
, . hierarchy, but a communicator, living in relation with his/her
I
I environment, with inter-personal relationships and experiences and
L_
r- - with an increasing quest for the quality of his/her life.
\
Government programs and services must provide opportunities in
,-- which all these aspects can find expression and development, thus
'L
. creating the conditions in which people can live their humanness to
,-- the fullest.
l
d) Recreation Contexts
I For a good understanding of the multifaceted recreation concept, it
i is essential to see it in the various contexts in which it is applied.
. I
!-- There are, first of aU, the Provincial Recreation Organizations, each
I
i
....... representing a specific area of interest. They are created to provide
r- a focus for comparable local organizations. They include provincial
oJ sports governing bodies, professional and/or volunteer provincial
,- recreation organizations, as weU as special interest groups.
,
'--
Regional organizations form the second context. These refer to a
I -.
.. - wide range of public and private institutions and agencies, organized
'-'
II to support activities at a multi-community level, examples are
,--
I recreation agencies and activities operated counties and regional
i
i
- governments, Conservation Authorities and Regional Sports Councils.
[ .-
'--
~-563
- j-
A third context is formed by local or community recreation .
organizations, such as municipal government agencies, multi-service
agencies such as the YMCA's, interest groups such as minor hockey
associations, local craft associations, girl guide organizations and
many more. They also include commerical ventures, such as bowling
alleys, fitness clubs and, finally, the educational institutions with
facilities that are accessible to the general public.
e) Community Recreation
j
The network of organizations, commerical, public and volunteer,
mentioned in the previous section, constitutes the spectrum of
Community Recreation.
It ensures the availability of recreation opportunities to those who
live in Ontario's municipalities; it is not patterned after a stereo-
typed model, but manifests itself in various forms; it is flexible in its
operational policies and procedures, based as it is on the expressed
needs and desires of people living under widely varying socio-
economic and environmental circumstances.
f) The "Lead Ministry" Concept
The concept of a lead Ministry refers to the situation where a number .
of ministries have an involvement in a given policy area and where,
for the purpose of ensuring efficiency, consistence and effectiveness,
one ministry is charged with the responsibility of ensuring the highest
possible level of cooperation between all ministries concerned
through the medium of inter-ministry cooperative mechanisms.
3. BASIC PRINCIPLES
1. Every resident of the province has a right to participate in recreation .
activities commensurate with his/her needs.
B-564
r' .
\ - 6-
,
~
.-. 2. The primary responsibility for identifying and meeting recreation
~
needs rests with the individual citizen; in other words, he/she is
i his/her own best recreation resource.
!
r- 3. The responsibility for the provision of recreation opportunities,
i beyond those supplied by the individual citizen him/herself is shared
.
, -
by many public, private and volunteer organizations, with the
,......
I emphasis on those operating at the local level.
l _
I
r-' 4. Community Recreation should form a well planned, effective system,
I
I
,.. based on the principles of citizen participation and of consultation
,- with and among the various organizations and agencies concerned.
,
,
-- 5. Provincial and local governments must playa major role in fostering
i cooperative planning for recreation services and programs.
, I 6. The partnership between volunteers and professionals continues to be
'--
i the cornerstone of any recreation syStem.
r~ 7. Recreation policies must be developed and implemented in a manner
\ which is understandable and acceptable to the public and conform to
current values and realities.
I 8. One of the basic tenets of a Recreation Policy must be a careful
. ' -
evaluation of social, environmental and political conditions.
f
....-
9. Recreation policies must ensure that the principle of local autonomy
/-~ and determination is reinforced and protected.
\
l..J
r- ID. Recreation policies must be flexible in their application,
'-.. comprehensive in their approach and clear, complete and concise in
- their formulation. They must be evaluated periodically to determine
I - whether or not their stated objectives have been achieved. To this
'--'
. end, targets ought to be established against which performance can
r--
I be measured.

,
,. POLICY STATEMENTS
I
i.. _ 1) The Provincial Government, through a designated"Lead Ministry: shall
.
support the development of community reaeation through-out the
!
i province of Ontario.
r
Governments have become increasingly complex and inter-dependent,
-' requiring a high level of inter-governmental and inter-ministerial
\ cooperation and coordination.
I
-
· r One of the most effective ways of achieving this is through the lead
,
\
"- Ministry concept, which ensures that the activities of all ministries
{ - involved in a given policy area are executed in cooperative fashion,
; avoiding duplication of resources and attaining a high level of
" -
r- administrative and operational effectiveness.
;
'--
.. The role and mandate of the Ministry of Tourism and Recreation is to
promote the social and economic well-being of Ontario, its
._~
communities and its citizens, by encouraging the stimulation,
{"., development and support of tourism and recreation opportunities and
\
. L_' activities, and by aSsuming an advocacy role in these areas within
~-- Government, among Governments, and between Governments and the
I
I
I
i private sector.
'--
,--.
~
.o-;}Ol

Therefore, in the area of community recreation, the Ministry of
Tourism and Recreation will play the role of "lead Ministry" for the ..
purpose of ensuring an effectively operating system of inter-
ministerial relationships, for the benefit of those the system intends
to serve.
2) It will be the ongoing responsibility of the Government to support the
development of community recreation programs and policies which
are consistent with the needs of the residents of the respective
communities.
~ost ministries, including the Ministry of Tourism and Recreation,
have provincial as well as a local responsibility.
For example, the Ministry of Tourism and Recreation, in order to
carry out this dual responsibility, incorporates both head office and
field service functions; the Recreation Division of the Ministry's head
office, located at Queen's Park, Toronto, is responsible for the
development of recreation programs and initiatives aimed at the
provincial and regional level; the development and delivery of the
Ministry's recreation programs that .are aimed primarily at the local
level, is the responsibility of the regional and district offices, which
are located through-out the province. These offices form the
communications link between the respective communities and the
Ministry. .
Furthermore, as part of its ongoing responsibilty, the Provincial
Government will, through the appropriate structures:
- Undertake a thorough review of all existing government
recreation programs and of the roles and relationships between
ministries, for the purpose of optimizing the services provided;
- Study and analyze trends to keep provincial policies and
recreation plans relevant; .
.
- Pursue an active and continuing investigation into the economic
,-- .:;)-.JUO
- lO-
r-
and social benefits of recreation and its impact on the provincial
~ economy;
--.
I Prepare a comprehensive list of recreation problems and issues
-
,- requiring research, giving special emphasis to applied research
\
\ projects with practical applications for practi tioners and
f'~ communities.
3) The Provincial Government, through its Lead Ministry will, in the
r-
I development of provincial reaeation policies and initiatives, ensure
.1
I
, ..
continuing liaison with provincial, regional and local organizations.
r-
I
1
i This policy the citizens of Ontario input into the
,-- guarantees
r-' development of policies, programs and procedures that will affect
I
l them. In order to accomplish this in a productive and practical way,
( - the Provincial Government will, through the designated lead Ministry,
I
I maintain continuing contact with recognized groups at provincial,
t
'I
regional and local levels. -
f--
I
\. of provincial interest, the government will, through
In matters
.. appointed officials of the provincial staff and tt\e lead Ministry,
!
I
-- maintain liaison with:
r
r
I - the Association of Municipalities of Ontario, as representative
. agency of the elected members of municipal governments;
r-
I
1
~
- the Parks and Recreation Federation of Ontario as representative
L body of provincial recreation organizations;
roO - when appropriate, with specific provincial recreation
,-- organizations on matters pertaining to their particular activities
f and/or mandates.
\
-
r- In matters of regional interest, the lead Ministry will, through
"
., appointed representatives of its regional offices, maintain liaison
I
~
with:
, -~
I .
i
-
B-569 -11-
- regional affiliates of the Association of Municipalities of Ontario;
.
- regional affiliates of member organizations of the Parks and
Recreation Federation of Ontario;
- when appropriate, with specific regional organizations offering
recreation services.
At the local level, the lead Ministry will, through its community
consultants, maintain liaison with:
,
- designated representatives of the Municipal Governments;
- representatives of local agencies providing recreation services.
The Provincial Government will, furthermore, establish other
communication mechanisms in situations requiring special attention.
4) The Provincial Government will encourage and support cooperative
planning of reaeation services at the provincial, regional and local
levels.
The intent of this policy is to clarify the roles of the government
agencies at the provincial, regional and local levels in the provisiQn
of recreation and to encourage cooperative planning for the purpose .
of attaining the most effective use possible of the available
resources.
.
To this end, the Ministry of Tourism and Recreation, as Lead
Ministry, will, at the provincial level, establish a structure
comprising, where appropriate, the ministries involved in the
provision of recreation programs and services, for the purpose- of
ensuring a cooperative approach to the development of legislation,
policies or programs affecting recreation.
.
At the regional level, in view of the fact that recreation programs
often affect several municipalities, the Ministry of Tourism and
Recreation will encourage regional organizations providing such
B-570
~ - 12-
,- programs, to cooperate closely with agencies of the municipalities
~ concerned, to ensure that local needs are met and resources utilized
efficiently.
At the local level, in keeping with the principle that the municipal
r-
I governments have the primary responsibility for stimulating and
I
l
assisting the development of community recreation, the Ministry of
r~ Tourism and Recreation will encourage and support the municipal
I
\ governments in the execution of their enabling and facilitating role
, ,.--. among all organizations providing recreation programs and services.
\.
Recognizing the vital contribution made by a host of voluntary
cultural, sport and recreation agencies, private clubs, churches,
educational institutions and commerical enterprises, this policy
i
i intends in no way to limit or curtail the autonomy or activities of
.
.. these organizations; its sole purpose is to achieve the highest possible
r level of cooperation in th~ planning and development of recreation
~ l
I
I
..- programs, services and facilities.
i
5) In the allocation of provincial resources, the Provincial Government
.- will give priority to those recreation programs and services that are
developed through a cooperative planning process.
I
1 To ensure the best possible use of resources at all levels of recreation
..!
service delivery, it is essential that cooperative planning take place
r among the various organizations and agencies concerned.
i
\.
,- Recognizing this, the Ministry of Tourism and Recreation will
!
I encourage organizations requesting its services and support, to apply
(
this principle to their planning processes.
--
Furthermore, the principle of public participation should be an
! essential element of the planning process, involving those affected by
--
the programs and services to be developed, as "valued partners and
-.-
! significant contributors".
I
'--
,. - On the basis of these considerations, the Ministry will, at the
,
'--
B-571
-13-
provincial level, support provincial agencies and org~izations in ~
those projects that retlect these principles.
A t the local level, priority for support will be based on the same
considerations, with emphasis on the involvement of the agencies and
individuals concerned.
6) The Provincial Government will provide appropriate consultative
services to all recreation service organizations involved in Community
Recreation. ,
The purpose of this policy is to stress the importance of the provision
on a continuing basis, of consultative services for the development of
community recreation.
Within the Ministry of Tourism and Recreation, the major
responsibility for the provision o~ these services rests with officials
of the field staff who assist municipal authorities in identifying the
relationship between their specific needs and the current Ministry

Finally, they strive to develop leadership skills, to increase
participation in recreation programs and in the discussion of
recreation related issues, and they encourage cooperation and proper
planning of recreation services and facilities.
The specialized resources of the Ministry's head office become
involved whenever needed.

programs.
9) The Provincial Government will establish liaison with appropriate
ministries of other provinces as well as the Federal Government, for
the purpose of facilitating inter-provincial planning for recreation
activities of a national or international scope.
The 1978 Federal/Provincial Conference of Ministers responsible for
recreation and sport, confirmed that the primary jurisdiction in the
field of recreation rests with the provincial and territorial
governments.
Therefore, the Provincial Government will, in dealing with matters
and concerns of national interest affecting Ontarions, cooperate with
the other provincial/territorial governments. It will reocognize the
inter-provincial/territorial mechanisms centred around the
Conference of Provincial/Territorial Ministers as the focus for
cooperation, as agreed upon in the Inter-provincial Recreation
Statement, released by the Ministers in Fredericton, New Brunswick,
October, 1983.
