Re: Request for scientific review of the draft Compensation Agreement to offset the destruction of Bayly and
Squires Road portion of the Lower Duffins Creek Provincially Significant Wetland Complex
Dear TRCA Board Members,
We understand that Triple Properties Ltd. has applied to TRCA to obtain a permit to allow the destruction of the
portion of the Lower Duffins Creek wetland complex located on the property northwest of Bayly Street and
Squires Beach Road in Pickering.
We appreciate that while having stated its official opposition to this development within the wetland, TRCA is
required by the newly enacted changes to the Conservation Authorities Act to issue a permit for the destruction
of the wetland because a Minister's Zoning Order has been issued for the site. However, this permit can be
made conditional on the completion of a Compensation Agreement that meets the requirements of the
professional opinion and expertise of TRCA staff and Board, and is developed consistent with TRCA's Guideline
for Determining Ecosystem Compensation (June 2018).
Determining appropriate ecosystem compensation for the complete loss of wetland property of this size,
quality, value, location, and protective designation is a new challenge for TRCA. As a result, it is certain that the
quality and defensibility of the Compensation Agreement will be widely scrutinized by the public, media, and
development community, as well as being seen as precedent -setting.
As experts in the field of wetland function and conservation, we therefore request that the Board of TRCA pass a
motion committing to a formal review of the draft Compensation Agreement before its finalization and approval
by the Board. We suggest that the review be conducted by a minimum of three appropriately qualified academic
experts in the fields of wetland biology, hydrology, and conservation.
We are also requesting that the results of this expert review be made available to the public, who should then
be provided a 30 day period to also review the draft and provide comments. It is also important that the
Williams Treaties First Nations be consulted regarding their views of the draft and the academic assessment.
TRCA staff would then incorporate these reviews and comments in the production of their final draft to be
presented to the TRCA Board for approval.
Thank you for your consideration of our request.

BACKGROUND
TRCA requires supply and delivery of various erosion and sediment control ("ESC") materials
while completing a variety of engineering, habitat restoration, and trail building projects
throughout TRCA's jurisdiction. These materials are crucial for preventing erosion and sediment
deposition in the waterways adjacent to, and within TRCA's construction projects.
By establishing a Vendors of Record ("VOR") arrangement for the supply and delivery of erosion
and sediment control materials, Vendors are authorized to provide these goods and services for
a defined period of time and with fixed pricing.
In accordance with the contract documents for this VOR arrangement, staff may contact a
Vendor on the list with the material and delivery turn -around times required for their project with
a value up to $25,000 per project, per annum. Goods and services above this threshold will be
procured through a separate competition and are subject to TRCA's Procurement Policy.
Vendors will provide all resources required to service the divisional or program needs in
accordance with applicable laws, codes, standards, and terms and conditions of the VOR
agreement.
The VOR arrangement will be subject to annual review in order to confirm that the Vendors are
providing an adequate level of service and to update any applicable insurance, certifications, or
policies of the Vendors.
The term of this Vendors of Record arrangement is for two (2) years. TRCA has the option to
extend for an additional two (2) years, pending further Board of Director and TRCA staff
approvals at a later date.

CARRIED
BACKGROUND
TRCA is in receipt of a request from Pattison Outdoor Advertising LP (Pattison) to amend the
terms of the proposed master lease for the construction and operation of both electronic and
static advertising signs on TRCA-owned lands.
At Board of Directors Meeting held on June 26, 2020, Resolution #A99/20 was approved as
follows:
THAT WHEREAS Toronto and Region Conservation Authority (TRCA) is in receipt of a
proposal from Pattison Outdoor Advertising LP, to enter into a Master Lease for the use
of TRCA-owned lands located at various locations for outdoor advertising;
AND WHEREAS it is in the best interest of TRCA in furthering its objectives as set out
in Section 20 of the Conservation Authorities Act to cooperate with Pattison Outdoor
Advertising LP, in this instance;
THEREFORE, LET IT BE RESOLVED THAT TRCA enter into a Master Lease with
Pattison Outdoor Advertising LP, for the use of TRCA land for outdoor advertising;
THAT the following locations be included in the Master Lease:
(1) Part of Lot 5, Concession 9, Northern Division, Toronto Gore, City of
Brampton, Regional Municipality of Peel
(2) Part of Lot 6, Concession 8, Northern Division, Toronto Gore, City of
Brampton, Regional Municipality of Peel
(3) Part of Lot 17, Concession 2, East of Centre Road, Chinguacousy, City of
Brampton, Regional Municipality of Peel
THAT staff be directed to work with Pattison Outdoor Advertising LP or any other
interested party for additional outdoor advertising sites that may be identified;
THAT the Master Lease with Pattison Outdoor Advertising LP be subject to the
following general terms and conditions:
(I) The term of the lease will be for five years, with three further renewal options
of five years each, at TRCA's sole option;
(11) Pattison Outdoor Advertising LP will pay a share of the gross revenue of 35%
in years one to five and 40% for three subsequent lease renewals;
(111) Each sign will have minimum annual guaranteed base rent payment;
(1 V) Pattison Outdoor Advertising LP will be responsible for any permitting
approvals required for the construction and operation of the advertising signs;
(V) Pattison Outdoor Advertising LP will be responsible for any costs associated
with the construction and operation of the advertising signs and associated
equipment;
(VI) TRCA receive up to 12.5% of available advertising time at no cost to TRCA;
(VII) The final terms and conditions of the Master Lease be satisfactory to TRCA
staff and solicitor,
(VIII) The sign(s) not be illuminated between 11:00 pm and 7:00 am or as
regulated by local municipal guidelines.
THAT archeological reviews be completed with any mitigative measures being carried
out to the satisfaction of TRCA staff at the expense of Pattison Outdoor Advertising LP,-
THAT
P;
THAT the CEO be granted delegated authority to approve the addition of another 11
sites proposed by Pattison Outdoor Advertising LP to the Master Lease that comply
with TRCA policies and procedures;
AND FURTHER THAT authorized TRCA officials be directed to take the necessary
action to finalize the Master Lease, including obtaining any necessary approvals and
the signing and execution of documents.
Due to the financial commitment associated with the construction and installation of the
advertising signs, Pattison has requested greater security for the initial term of the agreement by
amending the term from five years with three further renewal options of five years each, at
TRCA's sole discretion, to a term of ten years with two further renewal options of five years
each, at TRCA's sole discretion. TRCA staff have also identified that the form of the agreement
should be amended from a lease to a licence to reflect its contents more accurately.
RATIONALE
When finalizing the terms and conditions for the Master Lease agreement, Pattison requested
that TRCA consider amending the initial term from five years to ten years to recognize the
financial commitment associated with the construction and installation of the advertising signs.
TRCA staff reviewed the proposal to determine its feasibility.
TRCA cannot enter into lease agreements for terms longer than five years without provincial
approval; however, upon further review of the content of the agreement, it was identified that the
agreement was more reflective of a licence agreement than a lease agreement, and therefore
the request for an extended initial term could be considered.
Amending the terms of the agreement from an initial five year term with three five year renewal
options to an initial ten year term with two five year renewal options does not change the total
length of the term (twenty years) but does permit Pattison time to recuperate their initial financial
commitment and also allows TRCA the opportunity to fully evaluate the benefits and impacts of
outdoor signs on TRCA property.
Relationship to Building the Living City, the TRCA 2013-2022 Strategic Plan
This report supports the following strategies set forth in the TRCA 2013-2022 Strategic Plan:
Strategy 3 — Rethink greenspace to maximize its value
Strategy 7 — Build partnerships and new business models
FINANCIAL DETAILS
As noted at the Board of Directors June 26, 2020 meeting, the annual base rent for the three
signs is projected to be a minimum of $57,500 per site for the first 10 years. The annual base
rent will be re -negotiated when renewal options are exercised by Pattison. The base rent
amount will be paid to TRCA irrespective of Pattison Outdoor Advertising LP sales performance.
In addition, Pattison Outdoor Advertising LP will provide a revenue sharing program that would
see TRCA receive 35% in years one to five and 40% in years six to twenty of the gross
advertising revenue from space and time sold less the annual base rent. The revenue sharing
percentage remains at 40% for the duration of the lease to offset capital costs to replace,
upgrade and maintain the signs and screens as they age.
The Master Lease with Pattison Outdoor Advertising LP does not exclude TRCA from dealing
with other interested parties, however, they will undertake to evaluate all TRCA lands to
establish additional optimal locations for signs. These sites will be vetted by all appropriate
TRCA staff, and if acceptable, be added to the existing Master Lease with projected revenues to
be negotiated at that time.

CARRIED
BACKGROUND
In the spring of 2017, water levels in Lake Ontario reached levels higher than had ever been
measured since record keeping began in 1918. The effect of the high water levels and
associated flooding was felt along the entire length of Toronto's waterfront, especially Toronto
Island Park where over 800 residents, almost 30 businesses, and two schools were forced to
adapt to rising waters and service disruptions. In response to the high lake event, both TRCA
and City of Toronto staff worked to prevent damage and the loss of property and assets through
emergency flood mitigation efforts, including the deployment of over 45,000 sandbags, 1,000
meter bags, and a dozen industrial pumps. Despite these efforts, Toronto Island Park was
closed for 88 days between May 4 and July 30, 2017 due to the flooding. The closure of the
Islands during peak season presented a major disruption in tourist and recreational activity
which is an important source of revenue to the City and local businesses. The Park also
experienced significant shoreline erosion, damage, and debris accumulation over the spring and
summer of 2017. The flooding resulted in the activation of the City of Toronto Emergency
Operations Centre and in notable financial impacts, including millions in damages and municipal
revenue loss.
In 2018, TRCA worked with the City of Toronto to repair damaged areas and install temporary
proactive measures to protect strategic areas from potential future flooding. During this time,
TRCA retained W.F. Baird & Associates Coastal Engineers Ltd. (Baird) through a competitive
procurement process to complete a study to assist in planning for and responding to future flood
conditions. The study consisted of the following four major components: i) Flood
Characterization, ii) Flood Risk Assessment, iii) Flood Mapping and iv) Flood Mitigation
Alternatives.
In the Spring of 2019, Lake Ontario once again experienced unprecedented water levels,
surpassing the previous 2017 record by ten centimeters. Despite higher water levels, lessons
learned from the 2017 event, along with the proactive mitigation measures implemented in
2018, reduced the impact of flooding. Flood mapping developed as part of the Baird study
allowed for the effective deployment of resources in response to rising water levels. The study
also provided background information that informed the ideal placement of short-term mitigation
measures to address the flood levels, including the ideal placement of sandbags and other
efforts. During this time, a total of 22,000 sandbags were placed, 14 Aqua Dams were installed,
and previously installed pumps were operated and/or maintained. While strategically placed
short-term mitigation measures helped to reduce the impact of the 2019 high lake level event, a
long-term solution is needed to provide adequate and sustainable flood protection.
Without timely and significant action, Toronto Island Park will continue to experience similar, if
not worse, socio-economic and environmental impacts to what has been experienced during
past flooding events. While TRCA and the City of Toronto work diligently each year to deploy
temporary mitigation measures to protect the park, its residents, and businesses, it is evident
that long-term flood and erosion mitigation measures are required to provide a cost effective
and sustainable solution. Due to the increasing frequency of high lake level events and the
continued vulnerability of residents, businesses, and public spaces within the Toronto Islands,
the City of Toronto has partnered with TRCA to undertake the Toronto Island Park Flood and
Erosion Mitigation Project (the "Project"). The goal of the Project is to develop long-term flood
and erosion mitigation measures to protect the Islands from future high water level and flooding
events.
As part of the Project, TRCA staff will work closely with the City of Toronto who is currently
developing a Master Plan for Toronto Island Park. While the City -led Master Plan will be a
strategic document that establishes focus items for park improvements, the TRCA-led project
will be the driver of shoreline protection measures and will act as a foundational element to the
overall Master Plan vision. As the projects will be running concurrently, staff from the respective
teams have established a coordinated approach to managing these initiatives.
The Project will be undertaken through Conservation Ontario's Class Environmental
Assessment (EA) for Remedial Flood and Erosion Control Projects. Planning and
implementation of the Project has been phased to expedite critical works on an emergency
basis in order to prioritize repairs and maintain accessibility for emergency services throughout
the remainder of the Class EA planning process. A declaration order, officially initiating the
Class EA process, was issued to the Ministry of Environment, Conservation and Parks (MECP)
and Conservation Ontario on February 19, 2020 requesting exemption from the compliance
requirements stipulated under the Environmental Assessment Act for emergency works. As part
of emergency works, which were undertaken in the winter and spring of 2020, approximately
500 meters of critical roadway was raised along Lakeshore Avenue and Cibola Avenue to
maintain emergency vehicle access, 125 meters of beach curb was installed at Ward's Island to
provide protection to the ferry dock terminal and interim flood mitigation measures were installed
at the Island Water Treatment Plant to help maintain critical plant operations.
The remaining flood and erosion mitigation works will be developed in accordance with the full
Class EA requirements. In support of the Project, TRCA requires the services of a qualified
coastal engineer to complete a detailed site investigation and develop conceptual design
alternatives for several identified project areas (see map attached). The scope of work includes
a baseline inventory of existing site conditions, completion of a coastal analysis, and subsurface
geotechnical investigation to support proposed conceptual designs at each site. Through the
investigation of these environmental conditions, as well as consultation with members of the
public and other stakeholders, conceptual design alternatives will be developed and evaluated
to select preferred approaches for long-term flood and erosion control at Toronto Island Park.

CARRIED
BACKGROUND
Lambton Woods is a 21.6 hectare Environmentally Significant Area (ESA) located at 1193 Royal
York Road, on the west side of the Humber River between James Gardens and Lambton Park, in
the City of Toronto.
The City has been working for several years to manage natural environment trails in parks and
ravines to ensure the protection of the forests and natural areas while allowing for compatible
recreational uses. In 2019, the City developed a Concept Trail Plan which identified areas where
improvements are required. One area requiring improvement is a pedestrian bridge that crosses
a tributary of the Humber River which is the focus of this assignment.
In July 2019, following significant weather events, the bridge was closed off to pedestrians due
to safety risks associated with the bridge's physical condition and significant erosion of the
bridge abutments. Pedestrians continue to cross the tributary via a narrow downstream area;
this informal use is causing additional degradation and erosion of the banks and is a safety
concern.
In fall 2014, the City retained Peter T. Mitches & Associates Limited to design a pedestrian
bridge and complete a geotechnical investigation (geotechnical report prepared by Chih S.
Huang & Associates Inc. in September 2014). To further inform the design, Aquafor Beech
Limited was retained in 2018 to complete a synoptic level geomorphic and drainage assessment
of the study area. Planmac Inc. was subsequently retained to complete the design process in
December 2019.

Section III — Items for the Information of the Board
RES.#69/21 - 2020 YEAR END FINANCIAL REPORT
Receipt of Toronto and Region Conservation Authority's (TRCA)
unaudited financial report as of December 31, 2020 for informational
purposes.
Moved by: Jack Heath
Seconded by: Joanne Dies
IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT the 2020 Year End Variance Report for the year ended
December 31, be received.
CARRIED
BACKGROUND
As part of TRCA's financial governance procedures, this report presents the 2020 year-end
financial report, which covers the spend rate of expenditures and recognition of revenue for all
of 2020. For the purposes of this report, TRCA's four categories of revenue have been
combined into one category titled 'Revenue' in the attached financial charts. This includes:
• Authority Generated: Revenues raised through activities such as user fees, retail,
rentals, program fees, event fees, and investment and interest income.
• Government Funded: Municipal, federal and provincial grants and contract services.
• Levies: Operating and Capital levies from municipal partners.
• Reserves: Accumulated surplus which is intended to finance unforeseen costs related to
ongoing operations or unfunded capital expenses for the organization.
RATIONALE
TRCA believes in transparency and accountability for its spending, revenue recognition and
performance of service delivery objectives against approved budgets, for both the organization
and for each project and program as an individual endeavor. This is further supported by
TRCA's core values which prioritize accountability of staff to be increasingly responsible for their
actions, behaviors and outcomes. TRCA recognizes that all projects and programs offered have
cost implications and that all costs incurred are in support of services being practical and
affordable. Transparency throughout the budget management process is achieved in part
through the analysis and reporting on year to date revenues/expenses as compared to the
current fiscal year budget. In addition, TRCA regularly meets and shares information on budget
expenditures and variance with municipal and government agency partners throughout the year
and when preparing budgets for the upcoming year. In order to improve the accuracy in
reporting anticipated issues in expenditures, TRCA established a seasonal forecasting baseline
using historical data from the past three years to estimate the seasonal variances within each
program area.
Relationship to Building the Living City, the TRCA 2013-2022 Strategic Plan
This report supports the following strategy set forth in the TRCA 2013-2022 Strategic Plan:
Strategy 9 — Measure performance
FINANCIAL DETAILS
The operating and capital report by Service Area and underlying Program Areas are provided in
Attachments 1-5 respectively. The attachments provide a summary analysis of expenditures
and revenues to date and the variance explanations by Program Area. The variance threshold
for both revenues and expenditures are +/- 10% and $500,000 from anticipated. Variances
within these thresholds are deemed to be within the expected range.
A summary of the year end capital budget is shown in Table 1 below.

Ten capital revenue and fourteen capital expenditure variances are explained in Attachment 5.
At year end, capital budget will net to approximately $0, as the current $22.6 M surplus of
revenue over expenditures is associated with 2020 deliverables including implementation of the
Scarborough Waterfront Project, Albion Hills Master Plan and Bolton Camp Site Improvements
which have not yet been completed and will be deferred into 2021 as part of the year-end
financial closing.
A summary of the year end operating budget is shown in Table 2 below.
Table 2 — Year End Operating Variance
Nine operating revenue and six operating expenditure variances are explained in Attachment 5.
TRCA staff are still finalizing 2020 year-end and there are anticipated impacts such as the
potential for Canada Emergency Wage Subsidy (CEWS) revenue.
DETAILS OF WORK TO BE DONE
As TRCA's financial governance procedures and systems continue to evolve over time, internal
processes for in -year billing from vendors, invoicing of customers and recognition of deferred
revenue/internal recoveries will become a greater area of focus for the organization.

Attachment 5: Variance Explanations
CAPTIAL REPORTABLE VARIANCE NOTES - EXPENDITURES (Figures in 000's)
A
The lower than anticipated expenditures are due to the delay of in-person consultation for the Carruthers Creek
Watershed Plan as a result of COVID-19. Additionally, the Remedial Action Plan Fund Transfer account budgeted
$0.5 M of expenditures which was not required as these expenditures were budgeted and captured in project
accounts. Once this is taken into account, the variance is $103 and 7% which is within the acceptable threshold.
B
Expenditures are lower than anticipated due to cost recoverable contracted services for Toronto Stormwater
Management Pond Maintenance and Retrofits which was budgeted as single year project and then modified in -year
to be a multi-year initiative. Once this is taken into account, the variance is $311 and 5% which is within the
acceptable threshold.
C
The lower than anticipated expenditures are due to delays for a number of cost recoverable projects with the City of
Toronto including: Humber Bay Park East Major Maintenance, Sunnyside Park Revetment Maintenance and
Ashbridges Bay Major Maintenance. Additionally, agreement delays for Phase 1 of the East Don Trail and Ashbridge's

Order (MZO);
AND WHEREAS the application includes a proposed ecosystem compensation

the permit and requested a Hearing take place;
AND WHEREAS the Executive Committee reiterates the position of the Board of
Directors, as adopted at the October 23, 2020 Board of Directors meeting (amended

Significant Wetlands, and on this basis does not support development of this site as per
the MZO approved by the Province;

TRCA's Living City Policies, would customarily recommend declining the issuance of a
permit in support of development within a Provincially Significant Wetland and,

issue permission for a development project that has been authorized by a MZO under the

shall not refuse to grant permission for a development project that has been authorized
by a MZO, outside of the Greenbelt, under subsection (3) despite, (a) anything in section
28 or in a regulation made under section 28; and (b) anything in subsection 3 (5) of the
Planning Act;
AND WHEREAS all material related to an application subject of a Hearing must be
distributed to Board members and the applicant in advance of the meeting and no new
information may be introduced at the Hearing;
