Ontario Government legislation established a Board of Management for the Inn, effectively removing it from Authority jurisdiction. On November l4, 1986, Metropolitan Council adopted Clause No. l5 contained .- in Report NO. 13 of the parks, Recreation & property Committee, recommending that Metropolitan Toronto enter into a lease with CN Hotels Inc. to manage the Guild Inn. The Authority approved the leasing to CN Hotels Inc. and the sale of chattels to it generally by Resolution Il92 of Meeting #8/86, held November 28, 1986. Following approval of the report by Metropolitan Council, CN Hotels Inc. began operating the Guild Inn under an operating agreement, pending execution of the formal documentation. A short time later and as final negotiations were proceeding, CN Hotels Inc. notified Metro that its parent company was entertaining offers for the sale of CN Hotels. Subsequently, CN Hotels advised that it would not be able to enter into the agreement, although it offered to continue to operate the Inn on an interim basis. After extensive discussions with Canadian and off-shore operations, tentative arrangements have now been concluded with Cogan Corporation to enter into an agreement similar to that previously undertaken by CN Hotels which the Board of Management of the Guild felt was most advantageous, in that it provided income, removed the liability for the exp~nses of the Hotel, and recognized the cultural heritage of the property. The matter was approved by Metropolitan Council at its meeting held March 1, 1988. Res. #13 Moved by: Helen White Seconded by: John MCGinnis THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE RECOMMENDS THAT WHEREAS The Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Authority is in receipt of a request from The Municipality of Metropolitan Toronto to enter into an arrangement for the continuing management of the Guild Inn; B-10 AND WaEREAS it is the oplnlon of the Authority that it is in the best interests of the Authority in furthering its objectives, as set out in Section 20 of The Conservation Authorities Act, to co-operate with The Municipality of Metropolitan Toronto; THAT the. Authority approve the leasing of the land and sale of chattels to Cogan Corporation, or such person as The Municipality of Metropolitan Toron~o may designate generally, as set out in a letter and accompanying materlal from Metropolitan Toronto to the Authority's solicitors dated February 19, 1988, either directly or indirectly through The Municipality of Metropolitan Toronto; AND FURTHER THAT the appropriate Authority officials be authorized to sign all necessary leases, bills of sale, documents, etc., to complete the leasing and sale, subject to the following: (a) the Authority obtaining all necessary approvals to enter into a lease of land and sale of chattels, including an Order-in-Cou~cil, pursuant to Section 2l of The Conservation Authorities Act; (b) the boundaries of the land to be leased, rights-of-way and easements to be retained over the leased land being satisfactory to Authority staff; (c) the lease and sale documents and all other releases and indemnities, if any, and all other materials required to complete the lease and sale, and all security given in form and substance satisfactory to the Authority's solicitor. CARRIED 1-3 M.T.R.C.A. -6- HEART LAKE DEVELOPMENTS COMPANY LIMITED AND PIRST CI'l'Y DEVELOPMEN'l' CORPORATION LIMI'l'ED -Ezcbange and Sale of Lands, City of Braapton (Btobicoke Creek Watersbed) A staff report was presented stating a land exchange with the above companies was authorized on November 14, 1984 by Resolution 1287. Upon issuance of an Order-in-Council in accordance with the provisions of The Conservation Authorities Act, the transaction was subsequently completed on February 27, 1986. In accordance with the provisions of the Agreement, a covenant was included in the TransferlDeed of Land from the Authority to Heart Lake Developments Company Limited and First City Development Corp. Limited, which read as follows: "RESTRICTIVE COVENANTS The Transferee covenants and agrees that no buildings shall be constructed on the. lands described.herein prior to the lands having a minimum elevation of 248.5 metres above sea level." As a routine process, when requests for disposal of Authority-owned lands are received, an extensive and complete technical and environmental review is carried out as to present and future Authority requirements prior to any parcel being declared as suitable for disposal. The technical comments during the review noted that while the parcel proposed to be disposed of consisted of table lands beyond the existing Flood and Fill Regulation Lines, the land had originally been acquired in connection with the proposed Snelgrove Dam and Reservoir. It was noted that while construction of this reservoir is a very low priority in view of current Authority plans and policies, it was felt essential that any disposal of land leave the Authority with a completely uncompromised option of ultimately carrying out the original dam and reservoir project. It was in this context that the condition for all lands involved in the proposed sale to be filled to a level in excess of the maximum possible water level was arrived at. In preparing final development plans, the owners have approached the Authority with an alternate method of accommodating its concerns for the dam and reservoir, while achieving a more reasonable development plan relating to existing grades of adjacent lands, as well as existing municipal roads and services. Authority technical staff are of the opinion that the proposed site plan addresses all of the concerns of the Authority.

Travel Trade promotion of this item has proved difficult since tours are generally priced on a 'per person' basis; also to compete in the local job market, Supplementary Staff wage rates will be higher than anticipated when the schedule was established. Establishing a cost for a guided tour at Black Creek and Kortright of $2.50 per person in addition to regular admission fees, discounted by 20\ for tour groups, will address this problem.

The main elements of the proposed settlement are as follows: a) 750174 Ontario Limited is to convey to the Authority a parcel of land containing 0.101 acres, more or less, being part of Lot 12, Registered plan 3806, Town of Richmond Hill, Regional Municipality of York, and in exchange the Authority is to convey to 750174 Ontario Limited a parcel of land containing 0.168 acres, more or less, being part of Lot 9, Registered Plan 3805, Town of Richmond Hill, Regional Municipality of York. The Authority property is part of a much larger acreage acquired from F. & G. Torriero in September 1987 under the Don River Watershed component of the Land Acquisition project. bl The Authority is responsible for payment of costs involved in. the completion of the transaction. cl The land exchange is being made by the Authority on the premise that no loss in value to the vendor's property will be incurred because of reconfiguration resulting from the land exchange. In this regard, the Authority is to guarantee the vendor that he will be able to sell his property with the new boundary configuration at some future date after April 15, 1990 and up to December 31, 1990 at no loss in relation to today's current market value. In the event the vendor is required to sell the property between April 15 and December 31, 1990 at less than current market value, the Authority will be required to purchase the property in its entirety. (The Authority of course would then be required to resell the lands not required for channelization works and thus be out an amount equal to the loss in value of the property.) In the event that the owner sells his property with the adjusted property boundaries at an amount in excess of the current appraised value of the original property prior to April 15, 1990, all obligations of the Authority with respect to guarantee or purchase of the entire property will immediately be at an end. Similarly, in the event that the vendor does not sell the property and does not call on the Authority to purchase the property beween April 15th 1990 and December 31 1990, all obligations of the Authority will be at an end.

CARRIED 1. Black Creek Pioneer village al Hydro Service - vaughan Section of the Village $50,000. A three-phase electrlcal service lS necessary to run the Nesbitt Sawmill when the steam boiler is not operating. This requires a new power service from Vaughan Hydro which can eventually be expanded to supply underground power to four other restored buildings in this part of the Village. bl Nesbitt Sawmill Boiler $75,000. Although the Nesbltt Sawmill will be powered most of the time by a hidden electric motor, it is important from the standpoint of authenticity that a replica of the original 1860's steam boiler be installed. The mill has been engineered so that, for special occasions, steam can be used. as the source of power. cl Audio-visual E~uiPment $20,000. There lS conSl erable conference and seminar use of facilities in the Visitors Centre by associations, commercial and industrial firms and government organizations. This has created a real need for audio-visual equipment both for in-house use and for external groups who rent our facilities. The equipment required includes screens, projectors, tables, recorders, microphones, V.C.R. unit, stage lighting, T.V. antenna, large T.V., screen and black-out curtains. d) Village Maintenance and Replacements $30,000. The Rose Blacksmlth Shop needs considerable structural roof repairs and re-shingling at an estimated cost of $l5,000. The fence surrounding the Fisherville Church Cemetery must be replaced at an estimated cost of $8,000. It is necessary to replace fifty tables in the valley picnic area at a cost of $7,000. e) Visitors Centre Ice Rink $250,000. Almost from the tlme that the Village opened in 1960, a natural ice rink has been produced each winter which has helped to attract school groups and weekend visitation during the winter months. The village has attempted to make skating one of the major components of its winter entertainment and recreation package. However, in many years the ice quality cannot be maintained because of climactic conditions. This leads to frustration and disappointment of visitors who may then decide not to make repeat visits. To guarantee good quality skating at Black Creek from November to March, it is necessary to have outdoor artificial ice. The visitors Centre was designed with an artificial ice rink but the mechanical equipment was removed from the contract because of budget restraints. It is anticipated that the guarantee of good ice will greatly increase the annual winter visitation to Black Creek. B-36 SECTION II - ITEMS FOR AUTHORITY INPORMATION contd. 2. Kortright Centre for Conservation $10,000. A review of the Master plan for the Kortright Centre is currently underway, and no specific projects are recommended at this time; however, to be in a position to receive donations from people who regularly contribute to Kortright, a general fund with a target of $10,000 is suggested. Later in 1988 specific projects will be brought forward for consideration. 3. Bruce's Mill $112,000. The target for 1988 should be the amount remaining to be raised for the restoration of the Mill building, $112,000. 4. Land Acquisition In the strategies which are being developed for the Authority on the recommendation of the Authority's Evaluation Committee, proposals for land acquisition will . be made in several categories. It is believed that there is a role for the Foundation in assisting with the land acquisition program. In this regard it would be helpful for the Foundation, in preparing itself to assist in the program, to establish a Committee from among Foundation Members whose interest would be land acquisition - in the same manner that committees have been established for Black Creek, Kortright and Bruce's Mill. 11-01 TORON'1'O AREA WA'l'BRSHED MANAGEMENT STRATEGY -Don River Water Quality Manageaent plan Developaent -Consultant Selection On an annual basis the Authority has participated on technical and steering committees of TAWMS and, through funding assistance from the Ministry of the Environment, has provided staff and administrative support for many of the TAWMS technical studies.

At the outlet of the culvert major erosion of the channel bed and walls has occurred. The culvert is undermined for a distance of at least 50 feet under Highway 401 and poses a serious risk of damage to the Highway. Downstream of the culvert outlet, a large Metro sanitary trunk sewer is also endangered. A scour hole at the outlet of the culvert has developed to a depth of approximately 4 metres and the situation deteriorates after each major rainfall event. Temporary repair measures have been attempted in the past by the Ministry of Transportation and Metropolitan Toronto as well as The Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Authority. All of the temporary measures have suffered serious damage and are in imminent risk of complete failure. Both the Ministry of Transportation and Metropolitan Toronto are prepared to commit emergency funds to the construction of permanent remedial measures. In an effort to develop a coordinated solution, staff proposes to retain a consultant to develop a design solution which provides protection to Highway 401, the Metro trunk sanitary sewer, and the natural channel of Highland Creek downstream. Funding for the remedial works will be provided by the Ministry of Transportation and Metropolitan Toronto while the Authority's contribution will be limited to the cost of the design investigation. The 1988 budget of the Authority makes no provision for this project. It is proposed, therefore, that the cost of the design investigation, estimated to be $15,000, be funded from the local priorities funding allocation from the Ministry of Natural Resources. The municipal portion of the funding will be obtained from the project for Erosion Control and Slope Stabilization in Metropolitan Toronto. The engineering firm of Cumming-Cockburn Limited reviewed the erosion problems throughout the Highland Creek watershed for the Authority in 1982 and is familiar with the problem at this site. Res. 155 Moved by: Brian Harrison Seconded by: Helen White THAT the firm of Cumming-Cockburn Limited be retained to prepare an engineering design for erosion control works in the vicinity of the outlet of the culvert which conveys the Malvern tributary of the East Branch of Highland Creek under Highway 401 at a fee not to exceed $15,000.

CARRIED SBCTIOII I - I'l'BIIS POR AUTHORITY CORSIDBRA'l'ION CORRBSPORDBRCB LAKUILL QUALI'l'Y -Letter fr08 tbe Minister of tbe Bnvironaent Earlier this year, the Ministry of the Environment released two reports by Trow Consultants Limited concerning the quality of fill material at Tommy Thompson Park. At Authority Meeting '2/88, staff was directed "to prepare an outline of a Fill Quality Control Program that could be implemented by the Authority and funded from revenues derived from lakefilling operations". Subsequently, staff met with senior officials of the Ministry of the Environment to review lakefilling procedures and identify ways in which the quality of the material could be more carefully controlled. MOE agreed with the approach suggested by Authority staff and, as a result, the Minister is now requesting that the Authority serve as the Ministry's agent to develop and implement the Lakefill Quality Control program for the entire Metropolitan Toronto waterfront. The Authority'S proposed program has many components, the most important of which can be summarized as follow~. Firstl~, the development industry, inclu~ing ocontractors,.excavatofs ~nd CQnsu~tants;.wo~rd:be~advised Othat soil testing for priority polLutants must be undertaken prior to excavation and the results must be submitted to MTRCA for review before tokens for the disposal of fill will be sold. Secondly, Bills of Lading would be issued by MTRCA at the time of the token sales in order to provide a check that the material coming to the site has actually originated from a project for which soil tests were approved. Thirdly, the control program would be funded by fees charged for use of the lakefilling sites. At present, the fee is $lO.OO per load and it is proposed that the fee be increased to $20.00 per load effective July 4, 1988. B-44 EXBCUTIVE COMMITTEE MEBTING '4/88, APRIL 29, 1988 SECTION I - ITBMS FOR AUTHORITY CONSIDBRATION contd. There are several other components to the program which are still being developed. The program would have to address the control of materlal from small untested sites, appropriate provisions for spot checks to monltor the program, and procedures to control the use of material from municipal projects such as sewer repairs where the quality of the material probably exceeds the current guidelines. The Ministry of the Environment wlll also be asked to review the current guidelines and adopt new guidelines based on further scientific analysis of soil chemistry in the Metro region. Res. 160 Moved by: John MCGinnis Seconded by: William McLean THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE RECOMMENDS THAT staff prepare details of a Lakefill Quality Control Program for consideration by the Authority at its Meeting j3 on May 6, 1988.

The purpose of this project was to obtain 1:2,000 scale flood plain mapping, on a priority basis, for watercourses identified within the Authority's Mapping Extension program. Generally, these are watercourses that drain less than l,300 hectares regulated by the Authority, but for which no previous flood plain mapping has been completed. In 1986 the Authority extended its l:2,000 scale topographic mapping to complete most of the valley systems in the City of Brampton, the Town of Richmond Hill and the Town of vaughan. This included the mapping of 22 valley systems, a total of 3,l60 hectares. In 1987 the Authority extended its l:2,000 scale topographic mapping along "ten valley systems in the municipalities of Scarborough and Markham. Approximately l,385 hectares of mapping was obtained. In addition, airphoto coverage suitable for the production of 1:2,000 scale mapping was estab- lished along seven additional valley systems located in the Towns of Markham and Whitchurch-Stouffville. Hydrologic studies for subsequent flood plain analyses were completed for the headwaters of the Rouge River Watershed in conjunction with the hydrologic analyses being carried out by the Authority under its Rouge River Watershed Study. In 1988 the Authority has received $70,000.00 under the FOR program. This amount is less than the requested funding level of $100,000.00; however, the Steering Committee of the FDR program remains committed to the full funding of the four year project. Additional funds will therefore be transferred to the Authority in October 1988 or allocated in 1989. The 1988 MEP project will complete the flood plain mapping of the 32 valley systems that were physically mapped in 1986 and 1987 under the FDR program. In addition, the flood plain mapping for an additional l5 valley systems, physically mapped by the Authority in 1981 through 1985, will be incorpor- ated within the 1988 project. The work will include hydrologic and hydraulic analyses, the plotting of the Regulatory flood plain, report preparation and flood plain map duplication. This work will be carried out in accordance with the terms, conditions and specifications of the Canadal Ontario Flood Damage Reduction program and will require the services of a consulting engineering firm. Res. 164 Moved by: John McGinnis Seconded by: Gordon patterson THAT staff request proposals from consulting engineers for the completion of the flood plain mapping within those valley systems physically mapped by the Authority in 1986 and 1987 under the FOR Program, as well as those valley systems that were physically mapped by the Authority under separate project arrangements in 1981 through 1985; AND FURTHER THAT the Authority thank the Federal Ministry of the Environment and the provincial Ministry of Natural Resources for their continued support for this very important flood control project.

This report, completed in March 1988, at a total cost of $29,l40.00, investigated various alternatives for shoreline protective works. In reviewing the two main alternatives, it became clear that further coastal engineering design techniques would be required to more accurately assess the costs and level of erosion protection for each. The original terms of reference for this study required a coastal engineering design only for the recommended alternative; in this case, the offshore armoured revetment. The consultant has recommended that further study be carried out on the headland-beach concept for shoreline protection. This additional study will utilize numerical modelling to design the beach units and assess their stability during the shifting of the beach material under changing wave conditions. This theoretical coastal engineering design data will provide more accurate information regarding the detailed beach configuration, beach profile and level of protection and maintenance requirements. Funds for this study are available under the "Project for Erosion Control and Slope Stabilization in Metropolitan Toronto 1987-1991". Res. 179 Moved by: William McLean Seconded by: Brian Harrison THAT the firm of Keith Philpott Consulting Limited be retained to complete the additional coastal engineering study for the Guildwood Parkway Erosion Control Project at a cost not to exceed $8,900.00.

As a result of that Audit, a number of deficiencies were identified and this has resulted in an assessment of $46,952.93. provision was made in the 1987 Budget to pay the assessment. Also, all Authority Divisions affected by the Report have been notified of the results and appropriate action has been taken to ensure compliance in future. To assist with this, a list of provincially and federally tax-exempt items will be available for distribution later this year. It is essential that Authority staff comply with the requirements set out in the Sales Tax Audit Report because, in the normal course of events, the Authority will be subject to post-audit review to ensure that compliance is achieved. The Ministry of Revenue staff who conducted the Audit did so in a very professional and reasonable manner. Finance staff worked closely with them and were able to clarify a number of issues which initially were of interest to the auditors but were dropped in the final analysis. There are always "grey areas" in the application of the provincial legislation surrounding sales tax and the Ministry staff proved quite reasonable in making interpretations. Staff is comfortable with the results of the Audit and satisfied that we can make all the necessary adjustments to ensure future compliance. Res.

During 1984 certain lands in the Woodbridge area of the Humber River Watershed situate south of Woodbridge Avenue and in the Steeles Avenue, Dufferin Street and Oakbank Pond areas of the Don River Watershed were formally placed under Agreement in a manner similar to the long-standing Management Agreement with the Municipality of Metropolitan Toronto. Authority-owned lands in the Kleinburg area were earlier made available to the Town of Vaughan for local park purposes and form a part of Binder Twine Park. The relationship between the Authority and the Town has worked well concerning the utilization of the lands under Agreement as in other municipalities where Management Agreements are in effect. During early 1988, detailed discussions commenced regarding the possibility of placing additional specific parcels of Authority-owned land under Management Agreement with the Town of vaughan for park and recreational purposes effective July l, 1988. The parcels involved consist of the following locations: (a) The former Fundale Park area - situated in the Humber River Watershed, north of Woodbridge Avenue and between Islington Avenue and Clarence Street; (b) Woodbridge Flood Lands - consisting of two parcels situate on the east side of Islington Avenue between Woodbridge Avenue and Willis Road; (c) West Don Flood Lands - consisting of a parcel situate on the east side of Dufferin Street, north of the C.N.R. line. The Authority is to retain all flood control responsibilities with the Town of Vaughan being responsible for maintenance of the lands on a day-to-day basis. The Town is to submit plans to the Authority involving all proposed development and no alterations to the existing grades or new development is to be carried out by the Town prior to receipt of written approval from the Authority. The Town also assumes responsibility for payment of realty taxes for all lands included under Agreement.

The lands acquired included flood plain, valley, table lands and a remnant parcel of table land held in the firm's ownership which the firm was anxious to include in the total sale. A similar transaction was arranged in March 1969 with C.N.R. for a total of 10.6 acres. The flood plain, valley and abutting table lands acquired under these transactions is situate within the Rouge River Valley, while the remnant table land parcel is situate south of a hydro line, immediately south of the boundary of the former Beare Road Landfill Site and is separated from the Rouge valley by the C.N.R. Rail right-of-way. The potential disposal of this 42-acre remnant parcel of land has been reviewed with the Parks and Property Department of The Municipality of Metropolitan Toronto who is in agreement with disposal, subject to the possibility of a small buffer strip being retained. The Authority has received a number of enquiries regarding purchase of this property in recent months for housing purposes and it would now appear to be an opportune time to proceed with disposal of this surplus parcel. A detailed technical review of the site was carried out by Authority staff and it has been concluded that a maximum of 35 acres of the totally potential surplus parcel should be disposed of with consideration being given to retaining the remainder for buffer purposes. The Authority currently has the opportunity of completing the purchase of some five crucial acquisitions at key strategic locations in the Humber River Watershed, the Don River Watershed and the Lake Ontario Waterfront where regular funding is not currently available. The Province of Ontario has been very supportive of allowing the Authority to retain the provincial share of revenue from land sales to be used for high priority land acquisitions in recent years and it is proposed that the funding from this sale be used for high priority land acquiSitions. Res. 198 Moved by: Brian Harrison Seconded by: John MCGinnis THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE RECOMMENDS THAT a 35-acre parcel of table land, parts of the former Tre Frazioni Ltd. and C.N.R. properties, being Part of Lot 2, Concession 3, City of Scarborough, Municipality of Metropolitan Toronto, situate south of the Beare Road Landfill Site, be declared as surplus to the requirements of the Authority, THAT the availability of this parcel of surplus land be circulated to the City of Scarborough to determine whether the City has any interest in acquiring this land at market value; THAT, failing which, the Secretary-Treasurer be directed to advertise this land for disposal, AND FURTHER THAT the Chairman of the Authority, together with the Chairmen of the Water and Related Land Management Advisory Board, the Conservation and Related Land Management Advisory Board and the Finance and Administration Advisory Board be established as a Committee to review all proposals received for the disposal of this land and to report further to the Members of the Authority concerning a recommendation with respect to ultimate disposal.

The site is located on the West Humber River watershed in the City of Etobicoke. The affected slope is approximately 90 metres in length and 13 metres high. A slope failure occurred at the rear of '43-47 Lakeland Drive in September of 1986 after the unusually heavy rainfalls of August and September. This was followed by a similar slope failure behind i3l-33 Lakeland Drive in March of 1987. Slope stability works were carried out at 135-41 Lakeland Drive in 1974. This work is located between the two problem areas and appears to be stable. Our annual review and monitoring of the site appear to indicate that the slope has stabilized somewhat; however, there are indications that the instability may be progressing along the slope from '45-47 Lakeland Drive. The nature of the slope stability is such that it is very difficult to accurately define the scope of the problem or to assess the degree of hazard and, therefore, in response to the concerns being expressed by the homeowners of '3l-35 and 143-47 Lakeland Drive, the Authority is proposing to carry out an Erosion Control and Slope Stabilization Study. The study will consist of a site investigation and analysis to determine the nature of ground movement and degree of hazard to the existing dwellings. The study will also include, if required, a discussion of alternative remedial works and recommendation of the most practical solution. Staff has reviewed the two proposals received and is prepared to recommend that Terraprobe be retained to carry out the study based on its technical merits as well as being the lowest price received. Funds for this study will be available under the Project for Erosion Control and Slope Stabilization in the Municipality of Metropolitan Toronto 1987-1991. Res. 199 Moved by: Brian Harrison Seconded by: Bryn Lloyd THAT the Authority retain the geotechnical engineering firm of Terraprobe Limited to carry out an Erosion Control and Slope Stabilization Study in the vicinity of 131-33 and '43-47 Lakeland Drive for the estimated amount of $ll,lOO.OO.

As funding has been available, work has progressed with the exterior of the building and almost all of the foundation work has been completed. In 1981, William T. Trick, Ph. D., P. Eng. was engaged to develop a technical description of the milling equipment and operation for the mi 11 and in 1982, Dr. Trick completed drawings and specifications for the restoration of the water-wheel with associated bearings and shafts and recommended work to be carried out for the restoration of appropriate milling equipment and other mechanical aspects of the mill that would have been functioning when the Grist Mill operated in the 1910 period. During the past year, the Foundation's Bruce's Mill Campaign has been quite successful and sufficient funds are now on hand to proceed with restoring the water-wheel and operating equipment along with necessary structural repairs which will permit pUblic access.

Both Lineman's Testing Company, who had previously done repairs to the Petticoat Creek system and K-Line Electric Ltd. were unable to assist at this time due to other repair commitments. Rondar Electric Ltd. provided a temporary transformer unit that permitted operations to continue during the opening weekend of June II and 12.

This cost includes the temporary transformer provided, a temporary replacement of the damaged unit while it is being repaired, all costs associated with the removal and installation of the existing unit and repair work. Final cost may be somewhat less depending on the extent of repairs required that can only be determined when the unit has been torn down.

The $48 million project was approved by the Minister of Natural Resources on September 6, 1985. Substantial progress has been made since that date on a number of important acquisitions in the Don and Rouge River Watersheds, as well as at the Lakeshore Hospital property. The Authority's master plan for the acquisition of floodplain and valley land, approved by the Province of Ontario in 1961, included provision for the acquisition of virtually all privately-owned floodplain land from the mouth of the Humber River to Steeles Avenue. While the majority of the lands included within this plan is now in public ownership, forming a substantial part of the Metropolitan Toronto Park system, it was brought to our attention earlier this year that a major private holding situate immediately south of Hwy. '40l, west of Weston ~oad, was being utilized for industrial purposes. This parcel, situate in the floodplain of the main branch of the Humber River, known as 70 Dee Avenue in the City of North York, was offered for sale to the Authority in March 1988. The property is owned by W.R. Draper Company Limited and HSM/JEM Investments Inc. and is inhabited by Arthur Press 1978 Ltd. The parcel consists of 2.57 acres, more or less, improved with an industrial building containing a total of approximately 8,500 square feet. Negotiations have been conducted with the owners and their solicitor, Mr. William Hershorn, The Thistletown plaza, 964 Albion Road, Suite '103, Rexdale, Ontario,.M9V lA7, and a tentative arrangement has been made to secure a three month option on the property at a proposed purchase price of $785,000.00, plus payment of vendor's legal costs. Staff is of the opinion that the subject site is a critical location for acquisition at this time and it is suggested that officials of the Municipality of Metropolitan Toronto and the Province of Ontario be requested to give consideration to inclusion of this property under the Hazard and Conservation Land Acquisition Project Within the Municipality of Metropolitan Toronto - April 1985. The proposed acquisition costs included in the original project were based on preliminary property estimates only and it is proposed that the funding for the acquisition of this property be derived from the existing total funding as earlier approved. Res. 1109 Moved by: Helen White Seconded by: Brian Harrison THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE RECOMMENDS THAT the Hazard and Conservation Land Acquisition project Within the Municipality of Metropolitan Toronto - April 1985 be amended to include provision for the acquisition of the W.R.

CARRIED 1-8 TBRMIRA'l'IOR OP TBRARCY -Property: Dorotbea Milligan and Jacqueline Clarke Maple Creek Par. During the early 1960's, the Authority expropriated 37.324 acres of Highland Creek floodplain land near Lawrence Avenue East and Galloway Road in the then Borough of Scarborough from Dorothea Milligan and her daughter, Jacqueline Clarke. Situate on the property at the date of expropriation was a frame structure utilized by the owners to operate a catering business for weddings and banquets. Compensation for the expropriation was agreed to by Minutes of Settlement in October, 1964 issued by the Ontario Municipal Board. The Authority was required to lease back to the former owners 4.3l9 acres of the property, including the frame building for a period of five years and three months from October 1, 1964. This lease was later extended for an additional year to December 31, 1970. On January l, 1971, the property was turned over to The Metropolitan Corporation under the master Valleyland Agreement between the Authority and the Municipality of Metropolitan Toronto and the property c~ntinued to be leased by Metro to the former owners. Recent inspections by the Scarborough Fire Department indicate that extensive renovations to the building are required to comply with fire and safety standards. After extensive review and discussion, it has been determined that it is in the best interests of the Authority and the Municipality of Metropolitan Toronto to terminate the tenancy effective December 3l, 1988 and arrange for demolition of all remaining buildings on the property.

As was done with the 1988 preliminary estimates, explanations will be provided as to what is included in the so-called 'base' budget and additional explanations for each level of spending over and above this base. In 1987 and 1988, the preliminary estimates represented the consolidation of divisional and program budgets with an overview of priorities on a corporate-wide basis. While this is a useful method of viewing expenditure information, it is frequently difficult to evaluate corporate priorities unless they are related to the various provincial funding programs. Accordingly, for the 1989 preliminary estimates, staff will be presenting the priority ranking in terms of the various types of grant funding for which the Authority is eligible. In this way, we can anticipate the provincial grant and evaluate program and divisional priorities in terms of available provincial funding. b. 1989 Budget SChedule Appendix FA.l47 highlights the key dates within the budgetary process timetable. The budget process commences in June 1988 and concludes with the approval of the 1989 final budget at Meeting 12 in March of 1989. The schedule is designed to ensure that preliminary estimates are available for discussion with our municipal funding partners and the Ministry of Natural Resources as required in their own budgetary processes. c. Inflationary G~idelines The following inflationary forecasts for 1989 have been identified: MCLeod Young weir 4.2' Royal Bank 4.5' Conference Board of Canada 4.8' Woods Gordon 4.8' The average inflationary rate predicted for the Metropolitan Toronto area is 4.6'. In its recent request for a ten-year financial forecast, the Municipality of Metropolitan Toronto has suggested a rate of 5'. In 1988, the estimate of inflation for budget purposes was 4.5'. Given the foregoing, staff is prepared to recommend that we use 4.5' as a guideline except where more specific revenue and expenditure estimates are available. d. 1989 Fee Schedule The proposed fee schedule for admissions, programs and services will be presented in time for consideration by the Authority at its meeting on October 28, 1988. As has been the Authority's practice, the fee schedule will not address pricing for retail goods, for which pricing is determined by wholesale costs and other market conditions. Res. Ill6 Moved by: Gordon Patterson Seconded by: Brian Harrison THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE RECOMMENDS THAT the report on 1989 budget guidelines be received~ AND FURTHER THAT a 4.5' general inflationary guideline be applied in the preparation of the 1989 preliminary estimates, except where more specific revenue and expenditure estimates are available.

Staff identified, in the Employee Attitude Survey conducted last year, that they would welcome the opportunity to learn more about computers. A number of respondents suggested that the Authority provide some form of assistance to enable employees to purchase their own computer equipment for home use. There are advantages to the Authority in providing some assistance to employees. Given the growing number of computerized functions, staff training on computers is becoming increasingly important. Experience shows that people who have their own computers are much more creative in investigating new applications, new software and new approaches to solving computer problems. Once the basic computer literacy threshold is achieved, the learning curve diminishes greatly and the employer's "cost of learning" declines. The Authority is in a position to offer to employees computer equipment at the same price paid by the Authority, a price reflecting volume discount and the desire of our chosen supplier, Best Computers, to continue to do volume business with the Authority. Appendix FA.l49 illustrates the equipment which would be offered. Employee Commitment . Employees would be asked to identify a package of equipment they wish to purchase. . The employee will accept full responsibility for the equipment from the time it is delivered, including maintenance, trainiqg, software, etc. . The employee would also have to agree that the equipment would not be resold for one year. Authority Commitment . The Authority would facilitate the ordering of the employee equipment from Best Computers. . The Authority would arrange delivery of the equipment.to one location . An orientation session may be organized to instruct employees on how to set up and operate the equipment they have purchased. . To be eligible to participate in the Payroll Deduction Plan, the employees would have to be full-time staff and would sign an undertaking that, should they leave the employ of the Authority prior to the conclusion of the payroll deduction, they would reimburse the Authority fully for the remaining payments, and failing that, they would allow the Authority to deduct outstanding payments from their vacation or other outstanding wages/salary. . Each full-time employee participating in the Payroll Deduction Plan would be eligible to receive up to $l500, to be repaid over 26 regular pay periods. . The Authority would accept no responsibility for equipment purchased by the employee. Computer Supplier Commitment . Sest Computer Systems would agree to provide equipment to the staff of the Authority at the same price as offered to the Authority. . The computer supplier would agree to provide warranties and support to each employee as set out in their standard contract.

With regard to the foregoing proposal, the Authority would incur some costs in terms of the staff time necessary to organize the ordering and delivery of equipment. In addition, the Authority's systems analyst might provide an initial two- or three-hour orientation seminar during which purchasers would have the opportunity to set up the equipment at an Authority facility and learn the basics of how to connect the various pieces and start the machine working. This contribution of staff time is a reasonable investment in training of a large number of Authority staff. In terms of actual costs, the payroll Deduction program would be minimal and could be absorbed by the Accounting Section. The Authority would lose some interest earnings on the monies paid to the supplier when the equipment is purchased. If, for example, 30 employees were to utilize the $1500 payroll deduction, the Authority would lose over one year interest revenue of about $2,000. Given the benefits to the Authority of increased computer skills, this investment of approximately $70. per person seems reasonable. The Employee purchase plan would be made available to full-time staff who could participate in the payroll Deduction program and to part-time and seasonal staff and Members who could participate but would have to make an outright purchase of the equipment. Employees and Members would have to agree to participate before a certain close-off date. The program would conclude within one year and a decision as to whether it would be offered in 1989 would depend on pricing received from the Authority's cc . ~ter equipment suppliers. Res. 1117 Moved by: Gordon Patterson Seconded by: Helen White THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE RECOMMENDS THAT the Authority support an Employee Computer purchase plan as a one-time opportunity to be extended to all staff and Members of the Authority, THAT full-time staff of the Authority be offered the opportunity to use a payroll Deduction program to a maximum of $1500. and covering not more than 26 pay periods to assist in the purchase of computer equipment; AND FURTHER THAT staff report to the Finance and Administration Advisory Board on participation in the program and the final cost involved in the payroll Deduction part of it.

These reaches are mostly in small tributaries of the main watersheds with drainage areas less than 1,300 hectares. There are three components to this mapping program: topographic mapping, engineering studies (hydrology and hydraulics), and preparation of flood line maps. Topographic mapping for the required sites has been initiated under the Canada/Ontario Flood Damage Reduction Program (F.D.R.P.) under a project entitled M.T.R.C.A. Mapping Extension program (MEP) . Eleven of the sites for which topographic mapping was completed in 1986 and 1987 are on the Rouge River in the Towns of Markham and Richmond Hill. Twenty-seven mapsheets were required to map these sites. In 1987, the firm of Marshall, MaCklin, Monaghan Ltd. was retained to interface the hydrology developed for the Rouge River Urban Drainage Plan Study with that of the Authority's Mapping Extension Program. This hydrology study is now complete. For the eleven sites on the Rouge River previously noted, only the hydraulics study and map preparation are required to complete the floodline mapping. ", this end, terms of reference were prepared for this work and approved by J.R.P. Four firms were invited to submit proposals, as follows: R. E. winter and Associates Limited - $40,260.00 R. V.

CARRIED 8-125 EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE MEETING 18/88, AUGUST 12, 1988 SECTION I - ITEMS FOR AUTHORITY CONSIDERATION 1-9 FINANCE AND ADMINISTRATION ADVISORY BOARD MEETING 14/88 JULY 29, 1988 1-9.1 MAJOR MAIN'l'BNANCB RESERVE In the course of finalizing the 1987 Financial Statements, a decision was made to place a portion of the 1987 surplus, $30,000, into a reserve fund for major maintenance. In discussions with Metropolitan Toronto Budget Sub-Committee Member, Mr. Moorish, Metro agreed that this was a reasonable use of surplus funds but requested that we clarify how the reserve would be used. Major maintenance is defined as significant repair, replacement or upgrading of existing facilities beyond routine maintenance carried out on an annual basis. In 1987 the Authority began to evaluate major maintenance requirements of all its facilities. Staff is continuing this evaluation and is now in a position to recommend a policy regarding future major maintenance funding. The Authority operates a growing number of buildings and facilities. This property is now valued at about $23,200,000 for insurance purposes. The valuation of this property grows annually as a result of inflation and facility improvements. provision should be made to accommodate extraor- dinary items which are of high cost and those of an emergency nature. While the Authority maintains a vigorous program of routine maintenance, at some point major maintenance is required. For example, the Authority's Head Office is now more than 15 years old and will soon require a new roof at a cost of about $100,000. Similarly, Field Centres and the Kortright Centre for Conservation may require major roofing repairs in the tens of thousands of dollars. The Black Creek pioneer Village Visitors Centre at some point in its future will require a new roof and new air conditioning equipment. The cost of such repairs will be well beyond the ability of the Black Creek budget to support in anyone year. The purpose of the Major Maintenance Reserve is to facilitate emergency repairs that are unbudgeted and to reduce the budgetary impact of major maintenance. A recent example of emergency repairs is the need for a new electrical transformer at Petticoat Creek. The $30,000 cost of repairing the transformer was not budgeted and had to be absorbed in the Field Operations budget by deleting other maintenance items. Emergencies which occur at the beginning of the year may be absorbed in the Budget by deleting other items. This could have a negative impact on planned major maintenance. However, the same emergency repair occurring late in the year when maintenance budgets have been fully expended could not be absorbed and would result in the Budget being overspent. The Major Maintenance Reserve acts as a contingency fund for such emergency repairs. Also, the Reserve would be used to match dollars to alleviate the single year impact of a high cost maintenance project, such as a new roof. While it is difficult to estimate the actual amount needed to sustain the Reserve, staff has used l' of total insured property value as a rough target against which to measure growth of the Reserve. Based on current insured values, the target is in the order of $232,000. It is recommended that new projects, involving creation of capital facilities that will eventually have major maintenance requirements, should be budgeted in such a way that l' of the initial capital cost of the facility is contributed to the Reserve. Also, contributions based on known existing major maintenance requirements would be required to ensure the fund reaches its target of l' of insured value. Staff has prepared a list of high cost major maintenance items that are likely to occur over the next ten years. This list will be used to forecast needs and to establish contribution levels required to ensure that sufficient funds are available in the Reserve. Finally, where in a given year the Authority found itself in a significant surplus position, it is recommended that a portion of that surplus, at the direction of the Authority, might be placed in the Major Maintenance Reserve. B-126 EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE MEETING 19/88, AUGUST l2, 1988 SECTION I - ITEMS FOR AUTHORITY CONSIDERATION 1-9 PINANCE AND ADMINISTRATION ADVISORY BOARD MEETING 14/88 JULY 29, 1988 1-9.1 MAJOR MAINTENANCE RESERVE contd. Funds from the Reserve would only be expended at the direction of the Authority. At the beginning of each fiscal year, as part of the budget process, expenditures from the fund for high cost items would be identified. On approval of the Budget, staff would be authorized to spend up to these amounts. Emergency situations would require approval of the Executive Committee where the expenditure exceeded the spending limits of staff (e.g. in excess of $25,000). Emergency situations involving major maintenance would be tabulated at year end and, if existing budget conditions could not cover them, a request would be made of the Authority for approval to transfer the necessary funds from the Reserve. Creation of the Major Maintenance Reserve serves to enable the Authority to plan its future major maintenance requirements and reduce the budgetary impact of significant projects on a year over year basis. This would smooth the budgetary increases normally required which is something desired by the Authority's funding partners - particularly Metropolitan Toronto. Res. '144 Moved by: William McLean Seconded by: Clarence Jessop THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE RECOMMENDS THAT the following policy for a Major Maintenance Reserve be adopted: . the target value of the Reserve be equal to not less than l' of the total insured property values of the Authority, . funds from the Reserve may be used to finance emergency major maintenance items for which funding was not budgeted and for which annual operating budgets are insufficient, . funds from the Reserve be expended upon major maintenance items identified by staff as high cost items requiring funding in addition to that which may be provided for in the annual operating budget, . contributions to.the Reserve be made by Operating Divisions on the basis of a formula relating to known major maintenance requirements, . for new capital projects which will have future major maintenance requirements, an amount equal to l' of the total capital cost of such facilities be contributed to the Reserve in the year following that in which the capital cost is incurred, . in a given year where the Authority has a surplus of revenues over expenditures, the Authority may direct that all or a portion of that surplus be directed to the Major Maintenance Reserve, . staff report to the Authority at least annually on the status of the Major Maintenance Reserve.

CARRIED II-5 WOODBR"IDGE CIIAIDIELS CLEAR-OUT -Huaber River Watershed At Executive Committee Meeting #6/88, under Res. 'l04, staff was directed to investigate the condition of the Humber Channel in the woodbridge area and report back to the Executive Committee on what steps, if any, are required to clean it. The WOOdbridge Flood Control Channels were built in 1962 and are located on the Humber River at the confluence of the Main and East Branches, in the Town of Vaughan. On the Main Branch the channel extends from Highway #7 upstream to the Board of Trade Golf Course, located west of Clarence Street in Woodbridge. On the East Branch, the channel extends from the confluence east to Islington Avenue. The channel is basically a rip rap and grass lined channel with two' large concrete weirs located at the beginning of each channel on the two branches. The total length of the channel is approximately 1850 m. Regular maintenance activities carried out on the channel include inspec- tion, debris and vegetation removal and rip rap repairs. Major maintenance has included periodic clean-out of sediment. In the past the Authority has removed the sediment at a time when it was felt the capacity of the channel was reduced to the point where the risk of flooding was significantly increased. A major clean-out of the channel was last carried out in 1985. Sediment has again built up to the point where staff feels it should be removed and is therefore proposing that this be carried out in 1989 at an estimated cost of $30,000.00, subject to funds being available. Staff has prepared and submitted a Major Maintenance Project file for the clean-out of the WOOdbridge Channel to the Ministry of Natural Resources for ranking and 1989 funding consideration. Res. USl Moved by: Emil Kolb Seconded by: Lois Hancey THAT staff report on the clean-out of Woodbridge Channels be received, AND FURTHER THAT the Ministry of Natural Resources be requested to approve the clean-out of the Woodbridge Channels at a total estimated cost of $30,000.00 as part of the Authority's 1989 Major Maintenance program.

Draper Company Limited and HSM/JEM Investments Inc. Property Humber River watershed At Authority Meeting #5/88, held on Friday, July 29, 1988, Resolution #128 was approved, as follows: "THAT the Hazard and Conservation Land Acquisition project Within the Municipality of Metropolitan Toronto - April 1985 be amended to ~nclude provision for the acquisition of the W.R. Draper Company Limited and HSM/JEM Investments Inc. property at a total purchase price of $785,000.00, plus costs, "THAT the appropriate Authority officials be directed to approach officials of the Municipality of Metropolitan Toronto and the Province of Ontario to obtain the required approvals, "AND FURTHER THAT the appropriate Authority officials be authorized and directed to take whatever action may be required to give effect thereto, including the obtaining of any additional necessary approvals and the execution of any documents." As directed, staff has consulted with officials of the Municipality of Metropolitan Toronto and the Province of Ontario. It is their opinion that it would not be appropriate at this time to amend the Metro Toronto Hazard and Conservation Land Acquisition Project, given the funding uncertainty brought about by the Torvalley decision. However, Metro officials are supportive of the purchase of the Draper property. It was agreed that the general Land Acquisition Project might be a more appropriate vehicle. While funding is not included in the budget for this project in 1988, there is some indication that the Province would provide additional funds to cover the provincial share. Metropolitan Toronto officials said that the municipal share may have to be included in the 1989 fiscal year. Authority staff is confident that funds can be found and is proceeding to review this with provincial staff. Res.

CARRIED B-140 EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE MEBTING IlO/88, SEPTEMBER 7, 1988 SECTION I - ITEMS FOR AUTHORITY CONSIDERATION 1-3 REQUEST FOR SPECIAL POLICY AREA STATUS BY THB CITY OP YORK POR '!'BE BLACK CREEK DAMAGE CENTRES The Ministry of Natural Resources is in receipt of a request for approval in principle from the City of York for a Special policy Area designation. The area in question is located within the regional storm floodplain of the Black Creek between Weston Road and Jane Street. This area was designated as a damage centre by the Authority in its 1980 Watershed plan, recognizing it as requiring special status due to the level of development, the importance of the area to the community and the fact that acquisition is not a viable flood protection option. Also, a flood control channel had been constructed in the 1960's and offers 1 in 100 year flood protection or greater. The request for approval in principle for Special Policy Area status by the City of York is to bring the Authority's damage centre designation in conformity with the Provincial Flood Plain Policy. As part of this process, approval by The Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Authority is required in support of the City of York's request. Authority staff has been working with the City of York, the Ministry of Natural Resources and the Ministry of Municipal Affairs on this issue for some time and will continue as the process for Special policy Area status proceeds. Staff is therefore recommending that the Executive Committee recommend approval the City of York's request for approval in principle of a Special policy Area for the Authority's damage centre entitled: "Humber River - Black Creek - Weston Road to Rockcliffe Boulevard - Site 1..

CARRIED B-164 EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE MEETING 111/88, SEPTEMBER 30, 1988 SECTION III - ITEMS FOR REPERRAL TO ANOTHER BOARD III-l TWINNING OP THE HUMBER RIVER PROJECT At meeting #14/87 on October 30, 1987, the Executive Committee instructed staff to investigate the request from York L.A.C.A.C. to participate in the Twinning of the Humber River with the Humber River in Yorkshire, England. staff has attended several meetings with the L.A.C.A.C. representatives from municipalities that front along the Humber River. In addition to the twinning proposal, the group has suggested that the Humber River be designated a heritage river by the Federal Government. A program called "Celebrate the Humber" has been put in place for october 15, 1988. Each L.A.C.A.C. group will be responsible for organizing an event such as a picnic, nature tour or display on that day. In support of this effort, Authority staff will be presenting a film, slide show and talk on Humber River flooding (Hurricane Hazel) at the Kortright Theatre. Long term objectives of the group include the following: a) To twin the Humber Rivers in Metro Toronto and Humberside b) To promote the Humber River heritage resources through the Heritage Designation. c) To encourage the Authority to coordinate long term community group efforts at rehabilitation of the forest, wildlife, water and publiC use resources along the Humber River. The Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Authority has been identified by the L.A.C.A.C. groups as the most suitable agency to pursue the long term objectives. The current level of activity is limited. The "Celebrate the Humber. project has the potential to be an annual event that could attract strong community support for conservation efforts. In addition, the heritage resource of the Humber River valley could be developed as part of a Heritage Trail program in cooperation with local municipalities and L.A.C.A.C. Continued participation in this project could involve limited promotion, project coordination and committee liaison. Funding requirements would be limited to that required to support technical staff.

CARRIED B-166 EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE MEETING 112/88, OCTOBER 14, 1988 SECTION I - ITEMS FOR AUTHORITY CONSIDERATION The following items, 1-1.1 to I-l.5, were recommended at the Finance and Administration Advisory Board Meeting 15/88, held September 28, 1988. 1-1.1 1989 PRELIMINARY ESTIMATES Res. #186 Moved by: Gordon Patterson Seconded by: William McLean THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE RECOMMENDS THAT the 1989 preliminary operating and Capital Estimates, which include those approved by the Conservation and Related Land Management Advisory Board and the Water and Related Land Management Advisory Board, Appendix FA.195 as appended, be approved: AND FURTHER THAT appropriate representatives of the Authority, including the Chairman of the Finance and Administration Advisory Board, meet with appropriate officials of the member municipalities and the province to present and discuss the Authority's 1989 Preliminary Operating and Capital Estimates prior to submission of the final budget. CARRIED 1-1.2 ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICE CBARGE POR WRITTEN RESPONSES REGARDING AUTHORITY POLICIES AND REGULATIONS The following report and recommendation were recommended to the Finance and Administration Advisory Board by the Water and Related Land Management Advisory Board at its Meeting '6/88, held September 23, 1988. The purpose of the report is to review the current administrative service charge for written responses regarding Authority policies and regulations and to discuss a process within which this service charge can be reviewed and updated annually, based on increased costs for providing this service. BACKGROUND The issues providing the rationale for the initiation of the administrative service charge are: 1. The tremendous volume of correspondence received annually by the plan Review Section of the Authority,' in excess of over 2,000 title search requests, 1986. 2. The limited human resource base of the plan Review Section to expeditiously process the high volume of correspondence, processing time approximately 1-3 months behind schedule, 1986. 3. Continued provincial underfunding Gf Authority preventative and enhancement programs, particularly, funding of administration for augmenting staff resources. 4. The trend developing in other conservation authorities to implement a user pay approach for similar functions of their plan input and review programs. Further, the administrative service charge was to be implemented for the recovery of some of the costs associated with these written responses such as photocopying, stationery, postage, typing, etc. The fee was not being charged for the information itself nor would it be charged for requests requiring verbal responses only. Revenue generated by the administrative service charge would be allocated to improve the overall efficiency of the plan Review section and to shorten the response time for title searches and other plan input and review activities. The above administrative service charge of $20 per request for written responses was implemented, effective June 1, 1987. A contract position within the plan Review Section was established to facilitate the process. B-167 EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE MEETING 112/88, OCTOBER 14, 1988 SECTION I - ITEMS FOR AUTHORITY CONSIDERATION I-l.2 ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICE CHARGE FOR WRITTEN RESPONSES REGARDING AUTHORITY POLICIES AND REGULATIONS contd. DISCUSSION As a direct result of implementing the administrative service charge, there is no current backlog in the response for title searches. The contract technician who was retained to expedite this process has responded to approximately 3,000 lawyers' letters within the last twelve months. This figure compares to the 2,100 lawyers' letters that were processed in 1986. The increased volume and the increased administrative costs, both real and inflationary, associated with the processing of the lawyers' letters have necessitated a review of the $20.00 fee. In this regard: - it is expected that the volume of lawyers' letters received will be maintained or will continue to increase gradually, - costs associated with the processing of the lawyers' letters, such as photocopying, stationery, postage, typing, etc., are expected to increase over time as a result of inflation and increased costs of materials, - it is expected that current shortfalls in provincial funding for program administration will continue, - since adjoining conservation authorities currently implement a similar administrative service charge, there may be merit in establishing some consistency in the fee structure itself. It is, therefore, recommended that the administrative service charge for lawyers' letters be increased to $30.00 effective January 1, 1989. In addition, it is recommended that a review of this fee be made annually as part of the Authority's budget preparation process. The Authority's approval of the $20.00 administrative fee did not include a process for on-going review and/or fee adjustment. For this reason, the recommended fee increase and process for review are being brought forward now as a separate item from the 1989 Authority Budget. The approval of the preliminary Estimates would, in the future, address any proposed change in fee. It is recognized that the user pay approach for conservation authority plan input and review programs covers a much larger range of issues. In this regard, staff will be bringing to Water and Related Land Management Advisory Board Meeting 17 a repor~'on the establishment of a processing fee for applications received under the Fill, Construction and Alteration to waterways Regulations. Res. #187 Moved by: William MCLean Seconded by: Emil Kolb THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE RECOMMENDS THAT the proposed increase to the Administrative Service Charge for Written Responses Regarding Authority policies and Regulations to $30.00, effective January 1, 1989, be approved, AND FURTHER THAT a review of the Administrative Service Charge be approved as part of the Authority's annual budget preparation process. CARRIED B-168 EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE MEETING 112/88, OCTOBER 14, 1988 SECTION I - ITEMS FOR AUTHORITY CONSIDERATION I-l.3 1989 FEE SCHEDULE The proposed 1989 Fee Schedule was recommended to the Finance and Administration Advisory Board by the Conservation and Related Land Management Advisory Board at its Meeting #4/88, September 23, 1988. Res. #188 Moved by: Emil Kolb Seconded by: Gordon Patterson THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE RECOMMENDS THAT the fee schedule, Appendix CR.23 herewith, for the 1989 operating season, to become effective January 1, 1989 except where noted, be approved. CARRIED 1-1.4 RECORDS RETENTION POLICY A centralized filing system to store and maintain the Authority's records has been implemented. The centralized system provides for storage of documents in a proper facility within Head Office and frees up valuable floor space by eliminating inefficient filing cabinets. We now have about 17,600 files in the Central Filing System. Eventual capacity is about 20,000 files. Documents are also held in storage at a number of Authority facilities including Black Creek Pioneer village, the Bolton Records Centre and various other locations. The Central Filing System deals only with records stored at Head Office. Documents stored at other sites will be dealt with as time permits. Staff is in the process of establishing a computerized inventory of records stored in the Central Filing System. This inventory will be extended to include records held in inactive storage and those held off-site. In addition, we have been introducing a system of microfilming which meets standards set by the Government of Canada to enable the documents recorded in this format to be legally recognized. To continue the development of the Authority's record management system, it is necessary to adopt a Records Retention Policy which will provide specific retention periOds for various categories of documents. The Records Retention policy gives staff authority to destroy those records which are no longer needed. The policy attached to this report has been reviewed by senior staff and the Authority's solicitors. The Policy was prepared after study of Records Retention policies generally in use in ontario municipalities and as recommended by the provincial government. ~ The policy is a conservative one which ensures that records cannot be destroyed without permission from the Director responsible or the General Manager, and provides that, if there is any doubt as to the appropriateness of the destruction of the document, it. can be retained as long as necessary. As staff works with the system and our review of existing documents continues, further refinements are anticipated resulting in the destruction of some documents now designated as being required for lengthy periods. For example, the Authority has malntained its financial records well beyond any legal requirement. This has been done because there was no authoriza- tion from the Authority to destroy these records. The retention schedule takes into account the requirements of agencies such as Revenue Canada and the Ontario Ministry of Revenue in terms of the time frame for keeping records. Wherever necessary, we have consulted provincial legislation governing records and staff has been sensitive to the need to keep records in areas where future litigation may result. It is anticipated that this policy and the attached schedule, Appendix FA.17S, will be amended from time to time as the system is used and refined. Res. #189 Moved by: Gordon Patterson Seconded by: william MCLean THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE RECOMMENDS THAT Records Retention Policy, Appendix FA.175 herewith, be approved. CARRIED B-169 EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE MEETING 112/88, OCTOBER 14, 1988 SECTION I - ITEMS FOR AUTHORITY CONSIDERATION 1-1.5 ADJUSTMENTS TO PERSONNEL POLICIES B-1, B-3 AND 8-6 Through the Authority's insurance brokers, the Alexander Group, staff has negotiated an adjustment to Employment Benefit pians which provides improved benefits at no additional premium cost. The following changes to Employee Benefit Policies are recommended: Group Insurance The life insurance benefit currently provides an amount of insurance equal to 200% of annual earnings to a maximum of $150,000. It is proposed that the maximum be increased to $200,000. Long Term Disability Full time employees are currently eligible to receive 75% of salary or wages up to a monthly maximum of $3,500 provided the employee has been employed for a minimum of 15 weeks and continuously disabled for 15 weeks. It is proposed that the monthly maximum be increased to $4,000. Early Retirement provisions There is no provision in the Authority's personnel policy for employees taking early retirement to continue to participate in any of the Authority's benefit plans. Given the increasing trend towards early retirement and use of the "90 factor", it is prudent to offer employees some option to continue to participate in group plans. It is proposed that those employees who elect early or "90 factor" retirement may, at their own cost, continue to participate in the Authority's Dental Plan, Major Medical plan (with restrictions on the amount of "outside Canada" coverage) and life insurance plan at 100' salary at the date of retirement. This would cover those employees from the date of early retirement until age 65. Res. 1190 Moved by: Lois Hancey Seconded by: Gordon Patterspm THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE RECOMMENDS THAT Personnel policy B-1, Group Insurance Plan, be amended to provide for maximum life insurance benefits of $200,000, as in Appendix FA.189, THAT Personnel policy B-3, Long Term Disability, be amended to provide for a monthly maximum benefit of $4,000, as in Appendix FA.19l, AND FURTHER THAT personnel policy B-6, pension Plan, be amended to include an Early Retirement claus~, as in Appendix FA.193. ~ CARRIED 1-2 A GREENSPACE PLAN POR THB GREATER TORONTO AREA At meeting '5/87 held July 24, 1987, the Executive Committee appointed an Evaluation and Review Committee consisting of Mr. William Foster, Mrs. Lois Hancey, Mr. william G. MCLean, Mr. Gordon patterson, Mr. Emil Kolb and Mr. John MCGinnis to evaluate, annually, the Authority's programs and Objectives in relation to the goals and future direction of the Authority, and to receive the annual program performance review conducted by staff. As a part of its responsibilities, the Evaluation and Review Committee recommended that staff be directed to prepare strategy papers which would be forward-looking and to set out an approach to the conservation of the renewable resources in the area under the jurisdiction of The Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Authority in the coming decades. over the past several months, this work has been undertaken and has resulted in the preparation of A Greens~ace plan for the Greater Toronto Region. This plan sets out a conservatlon program which lS complementary to the Authority's Watershed plan, and is largely in response to the urban expansion which is characteristic of the Greater Toronto Region. B-170 EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE MEETING 112/88, OCTOBER 14, 1988 SECTION I - ITEMS FOR AUTHORITY CONSIDERATION 1-2 A GREENSPACE PLAN FOR THE GREATER TORONTO AREA contd. In addition to recommending the continuance of the existing flood control, erosion control and land acquisition programs, the Plan recommends new initiatives in the Authority's headwater area; a leadership role for the Authority in bringing together provincial and municipal interests as they affect resource management in the urbanizing portions of our waterSheds, and a strengthening of the provincial commitment to the waterfront program. The plan includes the strategies already approved by the Authority for access to and public use of Authority lands. The Plan also makes recommen- dations with respect to conservation education and an approach to dealing with archaeological resources on Authority lands. When put together, these elements provide a framework for greenspace in the area under the Authority's jurisdiction which can be described as a continuous waterfront land area linked to the headwaters by green corridors within the major river valleys. This land assembly, in addition to providing essential greenspace, provides a basis for trail linkages. It is anticipated that A Greens ace plan for the Greater Toronto be the basis for the commltment by provinclal and munlclpa governments to managing resources in the greater Toronto area. In order to provide a means of dealing with the proposals, the following steps should be taken: .oiscussion and approval by the Authority, .Submission to the province of Ontario, member municipalities and interest groups for comment and support, .Submission to the Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Foundation for information and support, .Submission to neighbouring conservation authorities for information and support, .preparation of projects for adoption ~y the Authority which will provide the required funding. Res. 1191 Moved by: William McLean Seconded by: Lois Hancey THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE RECOMMENDS THAT A Greenspace plan for the Greater Toronto Region be received, Appendix AM.66 as appended to the Authority minutes, and adopted as a guide to supplement the Watershed plan (1986); AND FURTHER THAT A Greenspace Plan for the Greater Toronto Region be submitted to the province of Ontarlo, Councils of the Authority's member mun ic ipali ties, interes~.groups, The Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Foundation and neighbouring conservation authorities for consideration and support, and that these agencies be advised that represen- tatives of the Authority would be prepared to make a presentation to them.

B-174 EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE MEETING 112/88, OCTOBER 14, 1988 SECTION II - ITEMS FOR AUTHORITY INFORMATION The following item came before the water and Related Land Management Advisory Board Meeting .6/88, held on September 23, 1988. 11-1 CLEAN OUT OF RIVER CHANNEL - OAK'RIDGES VICINITY -Humber River Watershed At Executive Meeting #9, August 12, 1988, it was resolved: "THAT in response to a request from residents in the area, staff be directed to examine the possioility of clearing the waterway approximately 210 feet from Wendy Way to east of the channel in the Oak Ridges Area". Staff has reviewed the request and has prepared the following report. The reach of channel which is of concern lies between wendy Way and Parker Avenue in Oak Ridges on the East Humber River. This is a 70m length of natural river channel, averaging 3-5m in width, which connects the Oak Ridges Meadows (a natural marsh area) located to the east of Wendy Way through to the Authority's Oak Ridges Channel Improvements which begin at Parker Avenue and continue west. The Authority owns the property identified as 678 and 771 on the property plan which includes most of the Oak Ridges Meadows and the natural low flow channel between the Parker Avenue and Wendy Way road allowances. All our lands in this area are under agreement with' the Town of Richmond Hill. Mr. and Mrs. Ritza, who have requested the clean out, live at No. 2 Wendy way. The Authority was also contacted by Mr. Ritza, through Councillor T. Simpson, in January of this year regarding the possibility of cleaning out the channel through the marsh to their property. Mr. Ritza's concerns included: (a) improving the channel for skating, (b) improving the duck viewing opportunities by reducing aquatic vegetation along the channel, and (c) reducing the number of mosquitoes. Staff from the Resource Management and Engineering and Development Sections investigated the problem at that time and recommended against the clean out because it would not have any significant impact on: (a) improving waterfowl production, (b) decreasing the mosquito population, or (c) improving t~ drainage. Generally, staff feels that this is a natural wetland which does not need to be disturbed. Staff advised Mr. Ritza at that time of our position and further advised Councillor T. Simpson jn writing on July 14, 1988. Staff has also reviewed this recent request which only concerns the cleaning out of the transition channel between the marsh and the Authority's Channel Improvements at parker Avenue. G~nerally, our clean out of flood control channels involves the removal of major obstructions which may impede flows. In this case there is no major obstruction, however, much of the natural channel has filled in with aquatic vegetation, which staff feels does not represent a significant obstacle under high flows. We also feel the clean out would have little or no impact on improving the drainage under low flow conditions. In addition, there is no practical way to control the growth of the aquatic vegetation and therefore this would require regular clean out to control the aquatic growth. For these reasons staff is recommending against cleaning out this section of the watercourse at this time. Res. #197 Moved by: William MCLean Seconded by: Brian Harrison THAT Mr. and Mrs. Ritza and the Town of Richmond Hill be advised that the Authority will not be cleaning out the East Humber channel between wendy way and parker Avenue in the foreseeable future. CARRIED B-175 EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE MEETING 112/88, OCTOBER 14, 1988 SECTION II - ITEMS FOR AUTHORITY INFORMATION The following items, II-2.1 & II-2.2, were recommended at the Finance and Administration Advisory Board Meeting 15/88, held September 28, 1988. II-2.l USE OF FAX MACHINES IN THE TENDERING PROCESS At its meeting on September 7, 1988, the Executive Committee approved the following resolution: "THAT staff prepare a report and recommendations for the Finance and Administration Advisory Board regarding the use of FAX machines in the tendering process, "AND FURTHER THAT a legal opinion be obtained in this regard." The use of FAX machines in the tendering process has been discussed with municipal staff involved in the Ontario Public Buyers Association. Accepted practice is to use FAX transmissions for informal quotations and proposals. Where sealed tenders are requested, FAX transmissions are not acceptable. There is no way to guarantee the integrity of the tender process using FAX transmissions. At the Authority's office, at least one individual would have an opportunity to see the tender price. No matter how careful we might be, the Authority could be open to allegations that a supplier's prices were known to staff in advance and possible collusion could occur. Given the general practice of the Ontario public Buyers Association, and Authority staff review of procedures, it was decided not to go to the expense of obtaining a legal opinion. Res. #198 Moved by:' Gordon Patterson Seconded by: Lois Hancey THAT the Authority's procedures for purchase of goods and services exclude the use of FAX transmission when sealed tenders are required, AND FURTHER THAT tender documents include a statement advising suppliers of this procedure. CARRIED II-2.2 NATURAL GAS PURCBASBS The following item was referred to the Finance and Administration Advisory Board by the Conservation and Related Land Management Advisory Board at its Meeting '4/88, held on September 23, 19~8. Res. 1199 Moved by: william McLean Seconded by: Brian Harrison THAT an investigation be made through the Association of Municipalities of ontario or with Metropolitan Toronto of the savings to be effected by the purchase of natural gas from GASAMO. CARRIED B-176 EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE MEETING 112/88, OCTOBER 14, 1988 SECTION II - ITEMS FOR AUTHORITY INPORMATION 11-3 PLOOD CONTROL PLANNING AND REMEDIAL MEASURES -Structural Inspection and Operation Review Stu~y for Stouffville Dam The Stouffville Dam was constructed in 1969 at a cost of $125,000 as the first component of a flood control scheme which was designed to provide a high level of flood protection to the downtown core of Stouffville. The second component involved the construction of a channel through the downtown core in 1980. The channel was designed to function in conjunction with the dam. The existing operations involve draining the reservoir in the late fall (winter storage level) and filling the reservoir in the spring after the critical spring runoff conditions have abated. Over the last few years cracking along the walls of the spillway, which supports the deck, has occurred and has become progressively worse. Seepage has also been occurring along the fracture lines at an apparently increaSing rate. The extent of craCking and seepage along the walls of the spillway has caused concern regarding the stability of the structure. The causes for these cracks are not apparent and we are proposing to retain an engineering firm to carry out a structural investigation and analysis of the dam and recommend any repairs which may be required. In addition, we would like to have an engineering firm investigate the impact on the flood control capabilities of the dam and channel if we were to revise our operational procedures to maintain a winter storage area by eliminating or reducing the additional storage achieved by emptying the reservoir in the late fall. The purpose of the study would be to: 1. carry out an inspection and analysis of the cracking which has appeared along the walls of the concrete spillway structure of the dam and review, if required, alternative means of correcting the problem and recommend the most feasible solution for remedial works, and 2. review our existing operational procedures and analyze the impacts on the flood control capabilities of establishing a winter storage level. We are in receipt of a proposal from MIE Consulting Engineers Limited for the consulting services to carry out a structural investigation and operational review study for the Stouffville Dam, for an estimated amount of $9,750.00. Staff is prepared to recommend that MIE consulting Engineers Limited be retained to carry out th~ study based on its technical merits. MIE has a great deal of experienc€ in the repair of small dams and furthermore, the principal of the firm was involved in the original design and construction of the Stouffville Dam. Funds for this study will be available' under the Flood Control Planning and Remedial Measures Program Account Number 112-20-000. Res.

CARRIED B-177 EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE MEETING '12/88, OCTOBER 14, 1988 SECTION II - ITEMS FOR AUTHORITY INFORMATION II-4 EAST POINT PARK -Small Craft Harbour Environmental Assessment Study Consultant selection . The Authority has an approved master plan for East Point Park (between the Easterly Filtration plant and Highland Creek Sewage Treatment Plant) comprising of approximately 56 ha of land overlooking a 25 m high bluff with 1,700 m of Lake Ontario Shoreline. In 1980, the Authority had a master plan update and site plan preparation study carried out by Hough Stansbury. A study carried out by the City of Scarborough - Economic Development in 1985, titled: "Biological, Economic and Social Analysis of the Scarborough Sport Fishery", recommended that: nThe M.T.R.C.A. initiate the existing plan for East point as soon as possible to accommodate the growing demands of the boating public". This study also suggested that the most immediate development considerations at East Point should be the construction of launching ramps and parking facilities for public access to the sports fishery off the Scarborough Bluffs. To provide the launching basin and ultimately the small craft harbour, the Authority is required to: i) undertake engineering and site design studies, and i i) submit an environmental assessment in accordance with the Environmental Assessment Act. The Authority requested proposals to undertake the environmental assessment from four firms: Gore and Storrie Limited, MacLaren plansearch Inc., Hough, Stansbury and woodland, and Ecoplans Limited. We are in receipt of three proposals with Gore and Storrie Limited declining. All consultants submitted on the basis of the Terms of Reference prepared by staff and an indicated project budget of $40,000.00 in 1988. The Terms of Reference have been submitted t9 the Ministry of Natural Resources for approval. Staff recommends that, based on th~ content of the proposal, the project team's experience in ot~er similar projects as well as the Metropolitan Toronto waterfront, the firm of Hough, Stansbury and Woodland Limited be retained at a fee not to exceed $40,000 in accordance with their proposal dated October l3, 1988.

ENCROACIIMEIITS ONTO AU'l'BORITY LARDS ROSSMULL CRESCEII'J.', TOWN OP VAUGBAR At Executive Committee Meeting '4/77, March 23, 1977, recommendations contained in a staff report regarding .Encroachments onto Authority Owned Lands. was adopted. Specifically, the Authority would not permit encroachments onto its lands and staff was directed to locate and correct any existing encroachments. This action was necessary to protect the Authority's title to its lands, as it is possible for an adjacent owner to establish legal rights to Authority lands through possession, i.e. encroachment and long term use. The report also recommended that where structures encraoched, their immediate removal was to be requested. Failure to comply would result in the Authority exercising its rights through proper legal process. At the rear of homes on Rossmull Crescent, in the WOOdbridge Section of the Town of vaughan, the subdivision lot grading resulted in fill encroachment. Staff is pursuing the resolution of this with the developer and builders. Individual homeowners have also placed structural encroachments on Authority lands as follows: Lot 98 Wrought Iron Fence, Swing Set and Sandbox Lot 100 Wooden Garden Shed on Concrete pad Lot 101 Wooden Retaining wall In addition, almost all of the 13 homeowners have encroached with vegetative plantings - gardens, shrubs and trees. Repeated requests to remove encroachments during the past year have been ignored by the homeowners. A legal opinion has been obtained from Gardiner, Roberts. They have advised that the Authority is well within its rights to physically remove the encroachments, due notice and warnings of the consequences having been provided to the owners. The structural encroachments are of the most concern at this time as the vegetative material problem will be resolved along with the fill encroachment.problem. 3-196 EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE MEETING '13/88, NOVEMBER 18.1988 SECTION 11- ITEMS FOR AUTHORITY INFORMATION 13.

A budget of $150,000 has been included in BCPV budgets in recent years with the expectation that The Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Foundation would raise the necessary revenue. The maintenance facility is necessary to safely store various types of equipment now accommodated in makeshift storage areas throughout the Village. In 1988, there is sufficient surplus in the Finance & Administration Division budget to fund a modest maintenance building. The surplus results from interest earnings well in excess of planned revenue. The budget of $l50,000 for a maintenance building can be reduced to $100,000 by completing a modest prefabricated structure which can be improved as time and funds permit.

THE METROPOLITAN TORONTO AND REGION CONSERVATION FOUNDATION FEASIBILITY STUDY In the Authority's Strategy for the Public use of Conservation Authority Lands the plan calls for a substantial increase in funding to achieve the objectives. Rather than just requesting an increase in municipal levy and provincial grants it was recognized that new sources and innovative methods of funding must be found. private sector lease agreements not only provide for the needed facilities but, through lease payments, provide additional funds to the Authority for the improvement and development of facilities. The Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Foundation has been effective in the past in providing funding for facilities for the Heritage and Conservation Education programs. The staff is of the opinion that,with the increasing interest in the environment, the Foundation could playa very significant role in the Greenspace program by funding land acquisition and inter-regional trail system, as well as continuing project and facility funding for projects such as Black Creek pioneer Village, the Kortright Centre for Conservation and Cold Creek Conservation Area. The staff has had a number of meetings with representatives of the Foundation, its Executive Committee and Members with respect to the increased funding requirements of the Authority. The Foundation was very supportive of the need to substantially increase the amount of funds raised annually for the Authority. It was concluded that the Foundation does not currently have the organization or the resources to raise $1 million per year and, in this regard, the Foundation's Executive Committee decided that a professional feasibility study should be undertake to determine the feasibility of raising $1 million annually and the staff a facility requirements to raise this level of funding. The Authority has been asked to fund this study, which is estimated will cost $25,000. The staff has investigated private sector funding in a variety of organizations in eastern and south United states, Western Canada and the Toronto Region and has cqncluded that with the proper organization, staff, suitable projects and financial assistance from the Authority for the first two or three years, the Foundation can make a much greater annual contribution than the $150,000 - $200,000. it is currently' raising. As a matter of policy, the Authority has set aside a portion of the lease- revenues from private sector recreation developments (such as the Water Park for Conservation Area Development. It is the opinion of staff that these funds invested in the Foundation will allow it to increase its fundraising capabilities resulting in a substantial increase in funding for Conservation Area Development. Resl225 Moved by: Gordon Patterson Seconded by: Helen White THAT the thrust of the proposal to develop a fundraising strategy be supported, THAT as an alternative to a feasibility study done by a consultant, the Foundation establish a fund raising unit with professional staff, THAT the first responsibility of this unit be to develop a fund raising plan with a variety of strategies to assist the Foundation raise at least $1 million annually, AND FURTHER THAT staff report on the funding that would be required from the Authority to establish this unit.

FOOD SERVICES AT BLACK CREEK PIONEER VILLAGE The village offers three areas of food service to its regular visitors: the Half Way House, the Cafe and the patio (seasonal) . The Canada West Room is used for group functions. The Half Way House appeals to and accommodates approximately 15% of the visitors, with the remaining 85% to be accommodated on the Patio and in the Cafe. The Half Way House and the Cafe are always available when the village is open to the public. The Cafe has experienced a number of problems: - In its current form the cafe is unable to adequately service large groups of customers that occur on weekends, in mid-day and when the school tours are at their peak, - The layout and method of service does not allow for the add it ion of staff to cover peak periods, and requires a high labour content at low levels, - The current labour shortage within the Metropolitan Toronto region has resulted in an increase of approximately 45% in labour costs ($5.00 - $7.00), - The noise created by the school groups due to the confined area and the tile floor, has resulted in customer complaints. This problem noise has also interfered with the use of the theatres when school groups use the student assembly area, - The sales of approximately $1.50 per visitor, including Half Way House where sales top $7.00 to $8.00, are well below the average fo for attractions similar in nature - this can be explained in part by the above. The patio offers a fast food service and the following has been observed: - While it is less costly to operate at low periods, it can be geared up to provide service to large numbers on weekends, mid-day and during school tours (450 seats) with portable equipment, - Not economical to operate both the patio and the Cafe, except at a few peak days (20 maximum), - Cleaning costs are much less for the patio than for the Cafe; - Outside area is more in keeping with an outdoor attraction, - Extremes of weather limit the use of the facility and is a major drawback. It is concluded that the most appropriate and economical area for food service for the majority of visitors at the Visitors Centre would be the patio, if it had protection from the weather. It is proposed that approximately 100 of the 450 seats be covered by a series of canopies and side curtains, to provide both indoor and outdoor seating. 6-200 EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE MEETING 113/88.

FLOODPLAIN MAPPING FOR THE RAINBOW AND ROBINSON CREEKS HUMBER RIVER WATERSHED The Town of vaughan has retained the firm of Cosburn Patterson Wardman Limited to prepare a master drainage plan for the Rainbow and Robinson Creeks (Humber River Watershed). The main objective of this plan is to develop a comprehensive storm drainage strategy which will satisfy specific watershed management goals and objectives including flood control, erosion control, sediment control, water quality and environmental concerns while allowing development within the subwatershed to proceed. One component of this study is the preparation of floodplain mapping. The MTRCA is currently carrying out a program to develop floodplain mapping for many watercourse reaches under its jurisdiction which were not mapped when its watershed plan was prepared in 1980. These reaches are mostly in small tributaries of the main watersheds with drainage areas less than 1,300 hectares (the approximate cutoff area used in the Watershed plan) and includes four (4) reaches of both the Rainbow and Robinson Creeks. These reaches were topographically mapped in 1987 under a project entitled MTRCA Mapping Extension program and funded by the Canada/Ontario Flood Damage Reduction program (F.D.R.P.) . Ten mapsheets were required to map these sites (see attached). Instead of initiating a new project to complete the floodline mapping for these reaches, it would be cost-effective to upgrade the floodline mapping component of the Town of Vaughan's study to F.D.R.P. and MTRCA specifications. Cosburn Patterson Wardman Limited has estimated the cost of the additional work as follows: - field surveys: $ 5,000.00 - hydraulic model calibration: 3,500.00 - map and report preparation & presentation: 6.500.00 Total $15.000.00 B-206 EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE MEETING 113/88.

Staff have been informed by letter (copy attached) that the Nelson quarry is closed due to a truckers strike and are unable to supply stone at this time. As we would like to schedule delivery as soon as possible, staff are recommending that the second lowest bidder, Wiles Transport, be awarded the contract at their tendere~ prices. This represents additional costs of $400.00 for the rip rap stone and $1.350.00 for armour stone. based on the estimated volumes of 2,000 tons (rip rap stone) and 3.000 tons (armour stone) . Due to the urgency in supplying the stone at this time, staff are recommending awarding the contract to Wiles Tr~nsport. Wiles Transport has been contacted and can meet our supply requirements as required. The increased costs will be offset by reducing the required volumes accordingly to keep within the approved budget.

DECEMBER 9. 1988 SECTION I - ITEMS FOR AUTHORITY CONSIDERATION 6. PROVINCIAL CONTAINER REPUND POLICY At its meeting #6/88, held September 16. 1988, the Authority. on a motion proposed under New Business. adopted Resolution #161: "THAT the Authority petition the province to reconsider its position on refunds for soft drink and juice containers, AND FURTHER THAT support in this petition be requested from the Association of Conservation Authorities of Ontario." Authority staff, in responding to this direction, have reviewed relevant Ontario Regulations and interviewed staff of the Ministry of Environment and Ontario Multi-Material Recycling Inc. (OMMRI), to determine the Province's policy and that part which we are requesting be reconsidered. The Province, since 1985, has had regulations in place which incorporate the following: I. Minimum refunds for refillable containers of: 15; for up to 350 ml size 30 for 351 ml - 1 litre 40 for over I litre Refunds will be more if a higher deposit is charged. 2. Recycling programs for non-refillable containers, 3. A ratio between percentage of refillable containers permitted and recycling targets and established dates for achieving each, 4. Reporting requirements for brand users, The Province has taken a position which favours recycling over re-use for a number of reasons: (a) A recycling program addresses a wide range of materials and containers, inClUding, "but not limited to those for soft drinkS, (b) Reuse of containers is not be practical over time due to contamination, (c) Recycling shares responsibility among government, industry and the public Ontario Multi-Material Recycling Inc. (OMMRI) was established by funding from the soft drink industry to develop the 'Blue BOX' program. To date, the industry has contributed $20 million to this program and further funding will be provided as municipalities opt to participate. The 'Blue Box' can be used for a range of household materials including, not only soft drink and juice containers, but also jars, bottles and metal cans. This program, according to OMMRI staff, has made Ontario a leader in North America for recycling initiatives. Based on our review, the province's position appears to have much to support. At issue remains the fact that litter in parks is a problem and that the cost for clean-up is borne by the parks management agency, either the municipality or the Authority, not by the manufacturers or the user. The Province's policy puts an onus on the distributor for refunds, on the manufacturer for reuse and on the manufacturer, municipality and the public for recycling.

PROCESSING FEE: FILL, CONSTRUCTION AND ALTERATION TO WATERWAYS REGULATION The purpose of this report is to discuss the introduction of a fee for processing applications under the Fill, Construction, and Alteration to Waterways Regulations. BACKGROUND The idea of initiating a processing fee for our Regulations has been discussed both at this Authority and at the Association of Conservation Authorities of ontario (A.C.A.O.) level. These discussions have been precipitated by the growing demands on Authority plan Input and Review programs. To date, no consensus on this issue has been reached, however, two authorities in southwestern Ontario have a fee in place. The Credit valley Conservation Authority has also just recently received approval to implement a processing fee for its Regulations beginning January 1, 19S9. Currently, no other Central Region conservation authority has a fee in place. To put the issue into a local context, processing fees are commonplace with our member municipalities, in fact, its prov ided for in Section 68 ( 1) of The planning Act. User pay has been in place for our recreation programs, education programs, and conservation services programs for some time. In 19S7, we extended this principle to the Plan Input and Review program by initiating the processing fee for written responses to solicitors on property compliance - this fee will be adjusted upward effective January I, 19S9. In addition, there has been a recognized need for the Authority to explore new avenues of revenue generation in all program areas as reflected within our new strategic management plan "A Greenspace plan for the Greater Toronto Region" October 1988. RATIONALE FOR CHARGING A FEE The obvious reason for exploring alternative sources of revenue is the continuing struggle to meet the needs of our clients yet balance our annual budget. our needs already exceed the level of program funding available. The plan Input and Re~iew program is exceptionally vulnerable to these types of constraints since the program is labour intensive but client controlled. The demands on our plan review function have steadily increased. For example within the period from 1983 through 1987, the volume of Official plans and Official plan Amendments has increased by 55', the volume of subdivisions has increased by 370', applications and variances from land division committees and committees of adjustment has increased by 85', and in the three years covering 19S5 through 19S7, the number of applications approved under the Regulations has increased by 30'. In 1987, we initiated a fee for written responses to solicitors on property compliance based on the user pay principle. We are recommending that this same principle be utilized by initiating a processing fee for applications under the Regulations. B-216 EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE .14/88. DECEMBER 9. 1988 SECTION I - ITEMS FOR AUTHORITY CONSIDERATION ITEM REFERRED FROM THE FINANCE , ADMINISTRATION ADVISORY BOARD 16/88 7. PROCESSING FEE: FILL, CONSTRUCTION AND ALTERATION TO WATERWAYS RBGOLATIOR (con't) The revenue will support and maintain the current staffing of the plan Review Section. Without additional revenue, staffing will be pared down unless other Authority programs are discontinued or further constrained. In addition to the eight full-time staff complement, the plan Review Section has generally employed four technicians, on contract, since mid - 1987. One contract position has dealt with the solicitors' request/response on property compliance. The remaining three have assisted our plans Analysts in clearing a 6 to l2 month backlog in plan review activities. These positions are critical to service delivery, particularly as we carry out our program and Section review. Staff is rec~ending the initiation of a processing fee for app1iciations under the Fill, Construction. and Alteration to Waterways Regulations. The balance of this report deals with the implementation of a fee. POLICY EXEMPTIONS There are three general categories of applicants: individuals. public agencies, including the municipalities, and all others. We have no reciprocal arrangements with any of these groups, therefore, no exemptions are recommended except for the following situation: An exemption is recommended for applications made by regional or local municipalities for projects on lands owned by the Authority but under management agreement with the municipality. POLICY IMPLEMENTATION DATE It is recommended that the fee be effective as soon as possible, either on or after January I, 1989 pending adequate notification to all interested and affected parties. Approval of the policy now allows for the continuation of the current contract technician positions within the Authority's 1989 Budget based on the 1989 Budget Estimates previously reviewed. FEE STRUCTURE It is recommended that the fee be based on the cost of the service required to process an application under the Regulations. However, as with most of our other user fees we would not look to recover lOOt of all direct and indirect costs. 00 PEE FOR ALL APPLlCA'I'IORS? Applications received under the Regulations are submitted for approval to (a) fill within a regulated area, ( b) construct within a flood plain and/or (c) alter a watercourse. The majority of applications received involve combinations of the above. The only reason to consider a graduated fee schedule would be to fairly account for the tangible benefit of the work to the applicant and/or the variance in time (therefore cost) to process the different types of applications. In this regard, B-21i EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE 114/88, DECEMBER 9. 1988 SECTION I - ITEMS FOR AUTBORITY CONSIDERATION ITEM REFERRED FROM '!'BE FINANCE , ADMINISTRATION ADVISORY BOARD 16/88 7. PROCESSING FEE: FILL, CONSTRUCTION AND ALTERATION TO WATERWAYS REGULATION (con't) all applications require the same base level of service: review of application, acceptance of design, processing through the committee and site inspection(s). A graduated fee does not seem appropriate. Also, we don't want to implement a system that creates an in house information and administrative burden. ORE FEE FOR ALL APPLICANTS? The Credit valley Conservation Authority (CVCA) has adopted a fee schedule based on three categories of applicants: personal Residence/property Owners, Member Municipality and Others. The CVCA established a lower fee for personal Residence/ property Owners and Member Municipalities ($45.00 per application as opposed to $100.00 per application for Others) in recognition of their ongoing financial support to the Authority and the non-financial motive of the proposed work. A fee structure based on applicant seems reasonable and would be relatively easy to implement. We concur with the categorization of applicants as established by CVCA with minor modifications. We therefore propose the following: I. personal Residence: This category encompasses all of the watershed residents, or agents acting on their behalf, who make an application for work on their individual personal residence. 2. Regional & Local Municipalities: This category requires no further explanation. 3. Other: This category includes any application other than that made on behalf of an individual for work on their personal residepce or regional or local municipality and would certainly include utilities, residential developers, contractors/developers/owners of industrial and commercial properties. This category title has been purposely left general so as to provide an umbrella for those applications that do not naturally fall into categories II and '2. A review of our applications processed for approval from 1985 to present indicates that approximately half -of the permits issued are to corporations, etc., approximately one-quarter of those issued are to municipalities, and approximately one- quarter are for personal residence. AT 1IIIA'I' AIIOOlI'!' SHOULD THB I'D BE SE'!'? It is difficult to quantify the cost of the Authority's Regulations program. At any given time there are over nineteen full-time staff who are involved directly with the program, with varying levels of effort. Two Divisions, Water Resource and Field Operations, assign staff to the program on a routine basis. Three Sections within the Water Resource Division are directly involved in the Program. Other operating costs such as printing, postage, travel, expenses, per diems, etc. add to the total cost of the program. 8-218 EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE 114/88.

CONSTRUCTION AND ALTERATION TO WATERWAYS REGULATION (con't) CONCLUSION In consideration of the above, and in consideration of the fees being initiated by the CVCA, the following fee schedule is recommended: U personal Residence: $45.00 per application '2 Regional and Local Municipality: $45.00 per application 13 Other: $l50.00 per application RENEWALS: The process for permit renewal is similar to that for solicitors' enquiries and therefore, it is recommended that the renewal fee be tied to (the same as) the solicitors' enquiries fee. Approximately 10 to 20 renewals are issued annually. REVISIONS: The process for revising approved permits is similar to that for processing an application under the Regulations and therefore, it is recommended that the fee be discounted by 50\ of the fee for processing applications under the Regulations. Approximately 10 to 20 permits are revised annually. EXEMPTIONS: Applications made by regional or local municipalities for projects on lands owned by the Authority but under management agreement with the municipality shall be exempt from the processing fee policy. FEE REVIEW: It is recommended that the fee for processing applications under the Regulations be reviewed annually, commencing 1990, as a component of the Authority's budget preparation process. Any change in the fee structure will be brought forward for approval as a separate item.

CONVERSION OF TWO SEASONAL POSITIORS AT BLACK CREEK PIONEER VILLAGE TO PERMARER'!' STA'!'OS: DELETION OP TWO POSITIONS Black Creek pioneer Village has two vacant full-time complement positions entitled "Artisan-. These full-time positions have been vacant for several years because Artisans are now hired on a seasonal, rather than a full-time basis. In contrast, there are two "Interpretive Coordinator" positions which have functioned on a seasonal basis, but are required full-time. The "Interpretive Coordinator" positions function as assistant supervisors of 80 to 90 Artisans and Interpreters. In addition to the day-to-day supervisory responsibilities, the Interpretive Coordinators assist with the preparation (staff, materials, exhibits) for all special events. The 1989 preliminary budget reflects the complement adjustment to come into effect with the adoption of the budget at the end of March, 1989. The request for complement adjustment is being made now because the Coordinator positions are required over the winter period to prepare for the 1989 special events program and to assist with the care and cleaning of the artifacts. The additional benefit cost of the complement adjustment for the period December, 1988 to March, 1989 will be about $2,700 or $8,lOO annually. Res.1241 Moved by: John MCGinnis Seconded by: Gordon Patterson THAT the two Artisan complement positions at Black Creek Pioneer Village be deleted and that two complement positions entitled "Interpretive Coordinator- be created.

FOOD SERVICES 3-YBAR PLAN (1989-1990-1991) In March of 1987, the Authority established a Food Services Section and internalized its food service operation. prior to 1987, this service was operated under a "Management Fee Contract" (1983 to 1986) and by a series of catering contracts prior to 1983. During the past one-and-a-half years, the quality of food and service has improved resulting in significant increases in gross sales especially in group functions. The result has been more program revenues to offset facility maintenance and service costs, increased reserve funds for improved facilities and equipment, and net revenues applied to the operations and maintenance of the public use facilities. See App.III (Bar Graph). This three-year plan has been prepared in response to a request from the Executive Committee.

REPORT OF THE 1988 MEETING: EMPLOYEE SUGGESTION AWARD SUB-COMMITTEE The Employee suggestion Awards Sub-Committee met on November 18. 1988 to consider twelve suggestions received during 1988. The Committee recommends that three awards be granted this year. Mrs. Margaret Hesp of BlaCk Creek pioneer Village suggested that evergreen trees be grown on village property for use in the Christmas programme rather than using artificial trees or bringing evergreens from outside suppliers. Mr. Brian Crozier and Mr. Gary valiant of Bruce's Mill Conservation Area jointly suggested that fax machines be used at Authority work locations, thus, greatly reducing the need of costly travel between locations and head office. A six month pilot project will be initiated in January to test the efficiency and cost effectiveness of the suggestion. Res.,244 Moved by: Lois Hancey Seconded by: Emil Kolb THAT an award of $25.00 be granted to Margaret Hesp for her suggestion that evergreens be grown at Black Creek pioneer village for use in the Village's Christmas Programmes.

CARRIED B-246 EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE MEETING 117/88, FEBRUARY 10, 1989 ITEMS FOR AUTHORITY CONSIDERATION 1. THE CORPORATION OF THE TOWN OF VAUGHAN -&- M.T.R.C.A. -Disposal of surplus Authority-owned lands As a result of the re-alignment of Jane Street where it intersects Steeles Avenue, the Authority is the owner of a remnant parcel of land consisting of 4.3 acres. more or less, of table land. part of which was acquired from J.W. Dalziel and S. Hastings in the 1950's. as well as the portion of the former road allowance acquired from The Corporation of the Town of Vaughan in 1987. The site is triangular in shape and is bounded on two sides by arterial roads, and on the east side by light industrial use. A detailed technical review of this site was carried out by Authority staff and it has been determined that it is not required as a part of BlaCk Creek Pioneer Village and is surplus to the Authority's needs for conservation purposes. It is proposed that the lands be advertised on a basis to solicit development, lease and sale proposals, with interested parties being invited to submit proposals to the Authority for consideration. It is suggested that a Committee consisting of the Chairman of the Authority, together with the Chairmen of the Water and Related Land Management Advisory Board, the Conservation and Related Land Management Advisory Board and the Finance and Administration Advisory Board, be established to review proposals received and provide a recommendation to the Members of the Authority concerning disposal or development of these lands. During the staff review of the disposal of this parcel, consideration has been given to the utilization of this location for Authority Administrative Offices. While current thinking is that an extension should be included on the current Shoreham Drive site. the funding from this transaction would facilitate any required addition to the existing Administrative Offices that may be required. Res. '270 Moved by: Emil Kolb Seconded by: Lorna Jackson THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE RECOMMENDS THAT a 4.3 acre parcel of Authority-owned table land, situate on the existing north east corner of Jane and Steeles, being Parts of Lot 1, Concession 5 and Part of the road allowance between Concessions 4 and 5, Town of Vaughan, Regional Municipality of York, be declared as surplus to the requirements of the Authority, THAT staff attempt to have this property removed from the Parkway Belt, THAT the availability of this parcel not required for conservation purposes be circulated to the Regional Municipality of York and the Town of Vaughan to determine whether they have any interest in leasing or purchasing these lands at market value and failing which, THAT the Secretary-Treasurer be directed to advertise the availability of these lands and invite proposals, AND FURTHER THAT a Committee be established, consisting of the Chairman of the Authority, together with the Chairmen of the Water and Related Land Management Advisory Board, the Conservation and Related Land Management Advisory Board and the Finance and Administration Advisory Board, to review all proposals received and to report further to the Members of the Authority concerning a recommendation with respect to ultimate utilization.

REPORT OF TEROER OPERIRG SUB-COMMITTEE 111/88 TOIIII'f' THOIIPSOR PARK -Gull Control In May 1984, The Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Authority received title to a major portion of Tommy Thompson Park from the Ministry of Natural Resources. With this land transfer, the Authority inherited environmentally significant plant and animal communities and a ring-billed gull population in the magnitude of ~ 80,000 pairs. In order to maintain the significant amenities of Tommy Thompson Park in accordance with the recommendations of the Environmentally Significant Areas Stud Y (MTRCA 1982), to keep our options open for future implementation of the Master Plan. and to allow for continued construction of the site, restriction of the ring-billed gull nesting habitat is required. Between 1984-1988 a Gull Control program has been undertaken and has proven highly successful. B-252 EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE MEETING 117/88, FEBRUARY 10, 1989 ITEMS FOR EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE CONSIDERATION 8. REPORT OF TENDER OPENING SUB-COMMITTEE 111/88 TOMMY THOMPSON PARK -Gull Control contd. Terms of reference for the 1989 Gull Control Program were prepared and forwarded to the Ministry of Natural Resources and Ministry approval was received January 27, 1989. A list of five consultants was developed and quotations for a two-year Gull Control Program to be undertaken from March 28, 1989 to June 9, 1989 and March 26, 1990 to June 8, 1990 (final approval for the 1990 program to correspond with budget approval for the year) were requested from each firm. Two bids were received, as follows: .ill.! 1990 ~ Bird Control International $26,475.00 $27,975.00 $54,450.00 Intercept Bird Control 18,700.00 19.822.00 38,522.00 Since the Gull Control program is an essential component of the continuing management and development of Tommy Thompson Park, and it is closely scrutinized by a number of special interest groups, the general public and the Canadian Wildlife Service, it is imperative that the Authority has in place a quality, highly professional program. After reviewing the two submissions received. staff recommends that the lowest bidder (Intercept Bird Control) ~ be awarded the contract for the following reasons: - Staff has contacted the applicable references supplied by this bidder and found them unwilling to provide written or verbal comments on his performance. - The bid submitted is substantially lower than the known value of this contract over the past three years: 1986 - $26,200. (3 month contract) 1987 - $21,900. (2-1/2 month contract) 1988 - $25,100. (2-1/2 month contract) - The supplied breakdown of costs relating to the pyrotechnical devices suggests that the quantity is insufficient to meet the program's requirements. The second bidder, Bird Control International, has been awarded the contract for the past five years and, during this time, has demonstrated a high degree of professionalism and competency that has been reflected in the overall success of this program. Res. 1279 Moved by: William McLean Seconded by: Brian Harrison THAT Bird Control International, be awarded the 1989 Gull Control Program at Tommy Thompson park for a period of up to two and one half months, commencing and terminating at the discretion of the Authority, with the cost not to exceed $26,475.00, AND FURTHER THAT Bird Control International be awarded the 1990 Gull Control Program pending 1990 budget approval and the successful completion of the 1989 program. CARRIED B-253 EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE MEETING 117/88, FEBRUARY 10. 1989 ITEMS FOR EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE CONSIDERATION 9. SILVER STREAMS FARMS At Executive Committee Meeting ill/88, the following resolution was adopted: THAT the letter from Mr. and Mrs. Raymond Watford be received, AND FURTHER THAT staff investigate the matter of water supply from the Little Rouge and report back to the Executive Committee. The letter outlined the difficulties occurring in the river water used for the Watfords' farming operation due to the nature of the development in the area over the past few years. The Watfords have stated their irrigation system becomes clogged approximately three to four times a year with a "blue clay" sediment and is a result of upstream development (paving of Bayview Avenue and the construction of a railway overpass at 19th Avenue). In response to this letter, Authority staff reviewed our past comments and conditions for development in this area and visited the Watfords' farm and upstream area. The nature and source of the sediment problem were still unclear after field investigation. especially as the Watfords ind ica ted the sediment was not associated with storm events. Staff approached the Ministry of Environment and the Town of Richmond Hill for their support in trying to trace this problem. On January 17, 1989, Authority staff met with representatives from the Ministry of Environment, Town of Richmond Hill Public Works and Region of York Engineering to review the collective experience with this sediment problem and to develop a plan to diagnose the source and to suggest remedial measures. After some discussion, it was decided that the problem and its source would have to be better documented before remedial actions could be suggested. To this end the following tasks were assigned: 1. Town of Richmond Hill Public Works will continue their efforts to trace the past information related to Silver Stream Farms. They will also compile and circulate the minutes of the joint meeting. 2. Region of York Engineering will check their files on all upstream industries that may be affecting water quality. 3. Ministry of Environment will begin a sampling program to collect base-line data. They will arrange for the Watfords to notify them when the "blue clay" sediment appears so that samples can be taken. The Watfords will be supplied with bottles and trained to collect a representative sample should the event occur on a weekend. The turn-over time on the base-line samples will be six to eight weeks. Secondly Ministry of Environment will check the well records for the area to see if there is a chance that the well supply could be increased to meet some of the on-farm watering requirements. Authority staff will attend a second meeting on March 29, 1989 with the same parties to review the report on the background sampling done by the Ministry of Environment and to discuss the matter further. Res. 280 Moved by: Lois Hancey Seconded by: William McLean THAT staff report on the discussion meeting regarding Silver Stream Farm's sediment problem be received; AND FURTHER THAT future actions regarding this matter be referred to the Water and Related Land Management Advisory Board for their consideration. CARRIED B-254 EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE MEETING 117/88, FEBRUARY 10, 1989 ITEMS FOR EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE CONSIDERATION 10. THE REPORT OF THE SUB-COMMITTEE TO REVIEW THE DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE MEMBERS OF THE AUTHORITY -Further information At its meeting on November 23, 1988, the Finance and Administration Advisory Board considered and discussed the following recommendations of the Sub-Committee to Review the Duties and Responsibilities of Members of the Authority: a) "The Role of the Municipally Appointed Member" and "The Role of the provincially Appointed Member" be approved as definitions of the duties and responsibilities of Members of the Authority; b) The person selected as the Vice-Chairman of the Authority receive per diem for all regular meetings attended and where the Vice-Chairman acts for the Chairman, at the Chairman's request, per diem shall be paid at the rate of two times the regular per diem payment, c) There be no change in the current practice of paying Chairmen of the Advisory Boards the regular per diem rate, d) When the Executive Committee authorizes the appointment of a Sub- Committee to deal with a specific matter, the current practice of paying Members of such Sub-Committee a per diem for all meetings attended in connection with the matter, be continued, e) The Members' per diem be increased to $75 for 1989 and in each subsequent year, be increased in the same proportion as the economic increase authorized for staff. The Board decided that these recommendations should be referred back to staff to provide appropria~e substantiating information with respect to the recommendation on the Members' per diem. On January 9. 1989, the General Manager received a letter from the Ontario Municipal Board indicating that the Board was not prepared to approve the increase in the Chairman's honorarium as proposed by the Authority. The Ontario Municipal Board has requested and is awaiting direction from the Minister of Natural Resources concerning an appropriate mechanism to evaluate honoraria and per diems paid to Members of Authorities. Given this information, it is unlikely that a further request from this Authority to increase the Members' per diem to $75 would receive approval at the Ontario Municipal Board. Accordingly, it is suggested that staff prepare a submission to the Minister of Natural Resources which would set out, in detail, an appropriate system to properly evaluate honoraria and Members' per diems. The same principles and practices could be used as are applied in determining the salary and wages of Authority staff. This system employs benchmark positions among comparable organizations. For the M.T.R.C.A., the comparable jurisdictions are the Towns of Vaughan and Markham, the City of North York, the Municipality of Metropolitan Toronto and the Regional Municipality of Peel. Tbe following resolution was reco..ended by tbe Finance and Adainistration Advisory Board at its aeeting on January 20, 1989. Res. .281 Moved by: Gordon Patterson Seconded by: Helen White THAT staff be directed to prepare, for the Finance and Administration Advisory Board, a detailed submission for presentation to the Minister of Natural Resources for the purposes of determining the honoraria and per diem of members of The Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Authority; AND FURTHER THAT, following consideration by the Authority, the report be circulated to other authorities.

Res. i282 Moved by: Gordon Patterson Seconded by: Lois Hancey THAT the Report on Banking Services, Appendix FA. 319, be received; AND FURTHER THAT staff be directed to ensure that in the coming year the recommendation for acceptance of banking services be based on a proposal call to all acceptable financial institutions. CARRIED 12. ACCOURTING COMPUTER SYSTEM -Approval of Consulting Services The 1989 Preliminary Estimates of the Authority included provision for up to $100.000 to be spent to upgrade the accounting system. Fund ing is from the computer reserve fund, which was established for that purpose. Staff has met with a number of consultants and conducted a preliminary review of the Authority's requirements and available vendors. Also staff has consulted with similar organizations involved in new accounting computer systems. Authority staff requires assistance to confirm the user needs analysis which we are now completing, to prepare a request for proposal and to identify suitable vendors, ensuring that as many vendors as possible have the opportunity to bid for our requirements. Later we shall need assistance in a detailed evaluation, demonstrations and negotiations with selected vendors. Staff contacted the Regional Municipality of Peel and the Municipality of Metropolitan Toronto to determine appropriate consulting services. Discussions were held with the following consultants: T.L.W. Enterprise Inc. - A small firm specializing in accounting systems ($8,000 - $IO,OOO), R.I. (Bob) Perry and Associates - Also a small firm specializing in general systems development and strategic systems planning ($7.000 - $10,500), Computer Partners International (1986) Limited - A medium-sized consulting firm providing a broad selection of systems related services ($6,000 - $10,000), Woods Gordon - A large consulting firm which is the management consulting arm of Clarkson Gordon ($10,000 - $14,000). In the final analysis, staff believes that cost comparison is not as relevant as the experience offered by the consulting firms and their demonstrated ability with respect to accounting systems. As a result of discussions with these firms and informal discussions with several others, our conclusion is that Woods Gordon offers the best experience and the assurance of on-going support. With smaller firms, since there is limited back up, there may be a problem if the individual assigned is unable to continue. The breadth of experience that we were hoping for is diff icult to establish in some of these cases. It is also important that the consultant be independent of any supplier and have broad experience with a wide variety of vendors of both software and hardware. B-256 BXECUTIVE COMMITTEE MEETING 117/88, FEBRUARY 10, 1989 ITEMS FOR EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE CONSIDBRATION 12. ACCOUNTING COMPUTER SYSTEM -Approval of Consulting Services contd. In conclusion, staff believes that Woods Gordon will best meet the consulting needs of the Authority in this matter and we are recommending that approval be given to hire the firm of Woods Gordon. An upset limit of $10.000 is recommended for this consulting assignment. Should additional funds be required, a further request will be brought before the Executive Committee. Res. 1283 Moved by: Gordon Patterson Seconded by: Lois Hancey THAT staff be directed to contract for the services of the firm of Woods Gordon to provide assistance in the selection of an accounting system and that approval be given for spending up to $10,000 for this purpose, AND FURTHER THAT staff be directed to report to the Finance and Administration Advisory Board on progress in the selection of an accounting system, and to the Executive Committee should any additional funds for consulting work be required.

CARRIED 14. PROCESSIRG FEE FOR APPLICATIORS UNDER ORTARIO REGULATION 293/86 -Hearings At Meeting 114/88 the Executive Committee had before it a staff report recommending the initiation of a fee for processing applications under Ontario Regulation 293/86. In addition to approving the fee and fee structure as recommended by staff, the Executive Committee further recommended that: "staff be directed to investigate and report back to the Executive Committee, the possibility of having a hearing fee which would be an increment to the previously approved fees." Careful review of this item results in a recommendation by staff that a separate fee, specific to those applications brought forward as hearings, not be implemented. The rationale is as follows: 1. The initiation of the fee is to cover some of the costs associated with the processing of applications under Ontario Regulation 293/86. In this regard, applications being brought forward for approval incur similar processing requirements as those brought forward to a hearing. Both types of applications require staff review, staff reports, site visits. and the attention of the Executive Committee. Applications scheduled as hearings may require more intensive staff preparation than do those being recommended for approval. These efforts, and related costs, may be offset, however, by those which are incurred subsequent to the approval of proposed works under the Regulation. It is probable that additional processing fees may only be justified in those instances where an application is approved following a hearing. In all other instances, it is not feasible to determine an exact cost associated with the pre- or post-approval processing requirements. B-257 EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE MEETING 117/88. FEBRUARY 10. 1989 ITEMS FOR EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE CONSIDERATION 14. PROCESSING FEE FOR APPLICATIONS UNDER ONTARIO REGULATION 293/86 -Hearings contd. 2. Notwithstanding item (1) above. the implemenation of a processing fee for applications scheduled as hearings may result in the perception that the additonal fee is being charged to dissuade applicants from pursuing their right for a hearing as provided for under the Conservation Authorities Act. R.S.O. 1980. 3. There is no way to predetermine if an application made under Ontario Regulation 293/86 will be processed for approval or scheduled as a hearing. This determination can only be made following the review by staff. In addition, Authority senior staff reviews each application prior to the scheduling of hearings to ensure that this process is effectively implemented. In preparing this report staff looked at various alternatives for a processing fee for hearings. In general the alternatives could be categorized into two types: i) where the Executive Committee could choose to award costs to the Authority, in the form of some set fee, following each hearing, or i i) the fee for all applications could be increased with refunds issued if the application does not require a hearing. The administrative effort required for either of these alternatives would increase the processing requirements and associated costs. For the reasons noted above, staff recommends against the initiation of a processing fee specific to those applications that result in a hearing. Res. #285 Moved by: William McLean Seconded by: Lois Hancey THAT staff report on a processing fee for those applications under Ontario Regulation 293/86 which result in a hearing be received, AND FURTHER THAT the approved schedule of fees for the processing of applications under Ontario Regulation 293/86 remain as approved by the Authority at Meeting '9/88 and no processing fee for hearings be established.
