THE METROPOLITAN TORONTO AND REGION CONSERVATION AUTHORITY
1986 FINANCIAL PROGRESS REPORT NO. 4
GENERAL COMMENTS
This final financial report is provided in addition to the annual audited financial statements to facilitate
comparisons of budget to actual in a format which is consistent with the three previous progress reports and with the
original budget document approved by the Authority last March
An operating surplus of $147,235 has resulted for the year This amount includes $104,024 received from the
Foundation on account of the Visitors Centre construction expenditures incurred by the Authority in previous years The
balance can be attributed generally to higher than expected revenues
On the capital accounts a small deficit of $1,500 has resulted
Program Performance Appraisals are being conducted and should be available for circulation by the end of Apr i 1
These appraisals provide greater detail on actual program achievements in 1986 as well as identifying the many issues
faced by the Authority in 1986.
Page 2
OPERATING
Finance and Ad.inistration
A divisional operating surplus of $42,700 was achieved Expenditures in property management (taxes and insurance)
exceeded the budget of $87,820 but were offset by higher than budgeted Ministry grants, interest income, rental income,
savings achieved in borrowing costs and efficient operation of the rental properties portfolio
Water Resource
Minor program administration overexpenditures of $28,800 were incurred in wages, benefits, operation of the flood
control workshop, printing of the regulations handbook and computer equipment These were offset by reduced spending and
improved revenues in conservation services and other minor funding sources This resulted in a divisional surplus of
$5,700.
Field Operations
The division achieved an operating surplus of $43,500, mostly as a result of revenues exceeding targets Savings in
program administration of $15,100 resulted from a staff position remaining vacant longer than planned
Attendance at the Kortright Centre for Conservation came in at 3% below the 1985 actual as a result of declining
group bookings Revenues were maintained, however, with the production and sale of two major slide show presentations
The Conservation Area attendance is approximately 1% lower than in 1985 The reported attendance excludes the user
opportunities provided by the Sunshine Beach Water Park and equestrian activities at Claireville Revenues were 9%
higher than 1985 as a result of price adjustments reflected in the 1986 fee schedule and improved business from the
picnic and campground operations.
progra. Services
A year-end deficit of $7,800 resulted mainly in the planning and development program Overexpenditures occurred in
the Albion Hills Swimming Curtain project and the Bruce's Mill Ski Centre Project Underexpenditures in Boyd Site
Planning, Cold Creek Rifle Range, and Kortright main trail and service road partly offset higher spending
Overexpenditures in the Marketing Program were offset by underexpenditure in Administration which resulted from
deferral of the initial stage of a computerized booking/reservation system
"'-
page 3
Black Creek Pion eer Village
Attendance at the Village has increased by 19% over 1985 This is mainly a result of the North York Winter Carnival
which drew over 34,000 visitors Without Carnival attendance, the increase would be 6% over 1985 However, included in
the 1985 attendance figures are 12,000 visitors who were admitted free on the Family Day Celebration Therefore, the
real increase in paid attendance is up ll% over 1985 Revenue is up 14 % over 1985 due to a combination of a 16% increase
in admission revenue, removal of family rates and a 16% increase in giftshop sales
The divisional surplus of $63,100 includes approximately $104,000 received from the Foundation as further
contributions toward,lS the construction costs of the Black Creek Pioneer Village Visitors Centre The operation,
maintenance and administrative accounts incurred a deficit of $40,900 Overexpenditures in administration resu 1 ted from
unanticipated sick leave credit payments and a deficiency in the payroll benefits budget
Operation and maintenance overexpenditures are due to additional purchases of merchandise for re-sale, h ig he r
operating costs to keep buildings open to accommodate special groups and events, unbudgeted maintenance to ensure visitor
safety and a major repair to the flume at Roblins Mill Revenue from operations exceed the budget by $82,600 This was
achieved in spite of a reduced net contribution to revenue from food services of $34,500
The expenditure on development at the Village is $13 ,800, an underexpenditure of $197,700 This is because funding
for budgeted projects was not available
Vehicle and Equi~ent
The underexpenditure in Vehicle and Equipment is a result of the deferral of replacement of certain equipment
Vehicle and equipment expenditures are fully funded from the Reserves Fund
Food Service
The year-end result is a net revenue of $9,900 as compared to the budget of $70,000, a shortfall of $60, lOO Net
revenues are incorporated into the divisional operating results.
The shortfall in the snack bar operations is due to higher than budgeted cost of sales and the loss of employment
program subsidies available in prior years.
At Black Creek pioneer village, sales are higher than budgeted but higher than anticipated costs of sales, wages and
benefits, and advertising expenses reduced the net contribution to revenue to $8,000 from the budgeted $42,500, a
shortfall of $34,500.
Special projects
Special projects can be divided into two categories Employment Programs and Non-Employment Programs The
Employment Programs are Canada Works and Experience '86 The Non-Employment Program expenditure relates to wo r k s the
Authority undertakes as a result of special fund ing becoming available during the budget year Examples are the TAWMS
project and the Renewable Energy Program at Kortr ight All special project expenditures are fully recovered from the
sponsor.

CAPITAL
Metro Erosion
The Erosion and Slope Stabilization Project was overspent by $97,300 This is due to additional work at three
erosion sites, Maple Creek Farm, Warden Woods Park, and Burnhamthorpe, required as a result of the three major flood s
which occurred in August and Spetember. The budget allocation for Stanwood was transferred to Maple Creek Farm because
an agreement could not be reached with the affected residents at Stanwood on the scope of work and own contributions
Add itional funding is available to cover the overspending from re-allocation of provincial grant and levy-on-hand
Bella.y Road
Underexpenditures of approximately $267,000 were due to delays in completion of property transactions, changes in
design resulting in deletion of a major structure that had been planned for construction in 1986, and wet weather in
August and September, which delayed progress in many construction activities.
The sale of the surplus residential portion of the former Fysh Property was completed allowing the Authority to
acquire the parcel required at nominal consideration. However, since the acquisition of the property was reflected in
1985 expenditures, the 1986 sale proceeds have been netted against expenditures, accounting for the balance of the
reported variance.
Hazard Land Acquisition
A year-end overexpenditure of $771,000 has resulted, almost all of which has been or will be paid from surplus land
sale proceeds.
Acquisitions under the Project include
- Bifolchi in the Town of Caledon
- Di Domenico Property for the German Mills Channel in Richmond Hill
- Salamin Property in the Etobicoke Creek, City of Mississauga
- Croatian Estate Property in the City of Etobicoke
- Fish, Boygen, Gard i Homes and Underhill properties in the Weston, Woodbr idge and Bolton areas under the Humber
River Watershed
- The Abony Plumbing purchase of flood vulnerable lands in the vicinity of the Hinder property in the Don Hiver
Watershed
- Highland Creek Sand and Gravel acquisition
- Gravel pit rehabilitation transaction in the Greenwood area of the Duffin's Creek Watershed
page 5
Metro Land Acquisition
The status of the Metro Land Acquisition Project can be summarized as follows
- Hinder property for which $2 5 million was paid as the appraised value under the Expropriations Act; a final
settlement has not yet been determined.
- 276 acres of Ontario Land Corporation property in the Rouge River Valley was acquired with a value of $828,000
The underexpenditure results primarily from the delay in obtaining title transfer from the Province for the
Lakeshore Psychiatric Hospital Site. In addition, delays in expropriation proceedings have postponed payments f.or the
Hinder property and the Toronto Brickyard property.
Waterfront DeYelo~ent
Expenditures exceeded the budget by $163,520, mainly at Bluffers and Tommy Thompson Park The Bluffers Park
overexpenditure is due to extra costs for shoreline treatment. Dredging proved more difficult and costly than expected,
and some landscaping works were advanced from the 1987 program to 1986
The overexpenditure in Tommy Thompson Park is a result of extra consultant services required beyond the or ig inal
terms of reference for preparing detailed concept plans, plus extra costs for the workshop session
The overexpenditure was funded from re-allocation of provincial grant, levy-on- hand, and additional revenue from
landfi11ing at Sam Smith.

SCHEDULE "A"
1988 BUDGET GUIDELINES
SCHEDULE II A"
TO The Chairman and Members of the Finance and Administration
Advisory Board, Meeting #3, June 3, 1987
FROM James W Dillane, Director, Finance and Administration
RE 1988 BUDGET GUIDELINES
The following represents a list of issues which are relevant to the
process, presentation and content of the 1988 operating budget
L 1988 Budgetary Process
In 1986 a modified approach to ~zero-based budgeting~ was introduced
for the 1987 budgetary process This approach involved the identifi-
cation of a desired level (need leve 1) of expenditure and, in order of
least priority, reduction packages were ranked to achieve a. reasonable
level of expenditure to request from our funding partners
It is staff's intent to continue with the modified zero-based approach
with further refinements, including the recommendation from the
Executive Committee (Meeting 113/86 - October 17, 1986) to turn the
presentation around so that we have ~. , . a priority inclusion budget
rather than a priority reduction budget.~
The presentation of the 1988 budget will be in the following format
(a) A ~base~ or core budget will be determined by deleting from the
1987 final budget non-recurring or one-time expenditures including
such items as studies, major maintenance and development projects
Certain budgets which are primarily operating and maintenance in
nature will have a base of not more than 90% of the 1987 final
expenditure level. Those activities and services which will be
~protected~ within the core budget will be explained
(b) To the base will be added expenditure packages in order of
priority to arrive at the need level. A line will be drawn at the
. level for which funding will actually be sought. A statement on
the benefit derived from each priority inclusion will be
provided.
(c) Divisional and program budgets will be consolidated to provide an
overview of priorities on a corporate wide basis,
2. 1988 Budget Schedule
The attached schedule highlights the key dates within the budgetary
process timetable. The timetable spans a full ten months concluding
March 25, 1988 when the Authority will meet to consider the final 1988
budget. The schedule is designed to ensure that a preliminary budget
document is available for discussion with our principal funding part-
ners, the Municipality of Metropolitan Toronto and the Ministry of
Natural Resources, by their respective due dates.
3. Inflationary Guidelines
Staff is continuing to gather information on 1988 inflation forecasts
and on municipal wage settlements within the Authority's jurisdiction
A presentation will be made at the meeting on a proposed inflationary
guideline.
- 2 -
4 1988 Fee Schedule
A proposed fee schedule for admission, programs and services will be
presented in time for consideration by the Authority at its meeting on
October 23, 1987. As is customary, the schedule will not address
pricing for retail goods, for which pricing is generally determined by
wholesale costs and other market conditions
5. Wages and Benefits
Management are currently reviewing employee benefits, as directed
(Finance and Administration Advisory Board Meeting '6/86, Nov 26,
1986; Executive Committee Meeting 115/86 Dec. 5, 1986 ) A
presentation will be made to the October meeting of the Finance and
Administration Advisory Board. Additional costs, if any, will be
identified at that meeting.
Proposed permanent staff complement changes for 1988 will be presented
to the Board at its meeting in July. Additional costs which may
result will be identified at this time as well as within the
preliminary estimates.
RECOMMENDATION
1 THAT the Report on 1988 Budget Guidelines be received;
2 THAT the modified zero-based approach to the Authority's budget
process be continued with some alterations to enhance the clarity of the
presentation.
(NOTE A recommendation on the inflation guidelines will be presented at
the meeting.)

RULES FOR THE CONDUCT OF THE AUTHORITY - AMENDMENT
TO The Chairman and Members of the Executive Committee, MTRCA
Meeting #8, June 26, 1987
FROM James W Dillane, Director, Finance and Administration
RE AMENDMENT TO RULES OF CONDUCT
At Meeting #6 of the Executive Committee, the following
Resolution 167 was approved
"THAT the report of the Finance and Administration Advisory
Board be referred back to staff with the direction that the
Authority solicitors be consulted on wording for the
Authority regulation which would give effect to the
following points
(l) The existing rule providing that requests to appear as
delegations be made in writing continue to apply;
(2 ) Providing for each speaker to be allowed five minutes;
(3 ) Requiring groups to appoint a spokesman to speak for five
minutes;
(4 ) Giving power to the Executive Committee or the Advisory Boards
to suspend the Rules, should circumstances so warrant.
( 5) Where it is known that a large number of delegations is
requesting to be heard, a special meeting of the appropriate
Board, Committee, or Authority may be held explicitly to hear
such delegations "
Staff has reviewed the amendments to the Rules of Conduct with
Mr John T. Parkinson, Q C., representing the Authority's solicitors,
Gardiner Roberts. As a result of discussions with Mr. Parkinson, we are
recommending the following to accomplish the five points raised by the
Executive Committee:
(1) The existing rule providing that requests to appear as delegations
be made in writing continue to apply. Our solicitors have advised that
this is essential since it protects the Authority in the event that a
delegation, having requested verbally to appear before the Authority and
being granted permission to do so, might fail to appear and then accuse
the Authority of having taken action without adequately notifying the
affected party.
(2) Proposed Rule 47, which follows, would limit each speaker to five
minutes.
(3) Proposed Rule 47 also provides that spokespersons of groups be
limited to five minutes, and includes the requirement that a group should
appoint such person. This matter will have to be controlled by the
Chairman of the particular meeting.
(4 ) The authority for the Executive Committee or an Advisory Board to
suspend the Rules is provided for adequately in the present Rules 53 and
52 (d), which read as follows
"53. The Regulation governing the procedure of the Authority and these
Rules shall be observed in Executive Committee, Advisory Board and
Sub-Committee meetings as far as applicable, and the words Executive
Committee, Advisory Board or Sub-Committee shall be substituted for the
word Authority when such is applicable."
"52 The fOllowing matters shall have precedence over the usual order of
business
(d) a motion to suspend a rule of procedure or to request compliance
with the rules of procedure;"
- 2 -
Amendment to Rules of Conduct
(5 ) New paragraphs 41 and 41A, together with paragraph 44A, allow for
the holding of special meetings, whether the decision to do so is made
prior to the agenda being fixed or at the meeting itself
The recommendation which follows gives effect to the foregoing
Appended Schedule "A" illustrates how the new Section X will read in its
entirety when these amendments are included.
At meeting '7 of the Executive Committee, a resolution of the
Finance and Administration Advisory Board was adopted as follows
"THAT the Rules of Conduct for the Authority, Section II, Clause 2 ' (h) to
direct the staff of the Authority' be amended so that the Finance and
Administration Advisory Board has the authority to ask staff to prepare
reports. " Staff was requested to provide a suitable amendment to the
Rules of Conduct to accomplish this.
After discussions with our solicitors, it is the opinion of staff
that such an amendment to the Rules of Conduct is unnecessary '}:'he intent
of the Finance and Administration Advisory Board resolution is that staff
be in a position to prepare reports at the request of the Advisory Boards
It appears, from Section II, Clause 2 (h) , that only the Executive
Committee may direct staff. The intent of the Rules of Conduct is that
the Authority and the Executive Committee may direct staff to take certain
actions on behalf of the Authority and that no Advisory Board may direct
staff to take such action. In practice, staff has always responded to
requests of Advisory Boards for reports and other information so long as
it is of a routine nature and involves reasonable effort and time on
behalf of staff. Where reports requested by an Advisory Board involve use
of outside consultants or would in any way constitute the Authority taking
a direct action, such requests are referred to the Executive Committee or
the Authority.
It is the opinion of our lawyers that the Advisory Boards can
accomplish their desire to be able to request of staff that reports be
prepared without amending the Rules of Conduct. It is their opinion that
a simple policy statement, approved by the Authority, would be sufficient
Accordingly the Authority should be asked to approve the following
Staff be directed to respond to all requests made by an
Advisory Board for information and reports which concern
matters of a routine nature and further that such
requests will be duly noted in the minutes of the
Advisory Board and reported to the Executive Committee
and/or the Authority.
RBCOMIIBRDA'I'IORI
THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE RECOMMENDS
1 THAT Section X - Delegations - of the Rules for the Conduct of the
Authority be amended as follows:
(a) New paragraphs 41 and 41A be inserted:
41- When the Chairman of the Authority believes that a large
number of delegations will request an opportunity to address the
Authority or Executive Committee with respect to a particular
matter or matters, the Chairman may summon a special meeting of the
Authority or Executive Committee to deal with the particular matter
or matters and the provisions of paragraphs 34, 35 and 36 shall
apply as necessary.

In past years, consultants have experienced difficulties in the analysis of
cadmium in water samples because of the low detection limi t ( 0 2 ppb)
required The difficulties occurred because some analytical procedures
required pre-concentrating the water sample 10 to 20-fold prior to analysis,
making results for cadmium determlnation unreliable at the low detection limit
required These analyses form part of the Colonel Samuel Smith Environmental
Monitoring Programme, and limits are specified by the Ministry of the
Environment Inaccuracies could result in violation of the Authority's
agreement under the Environmental Asse.ssment Act
The Proctor & Redfern Group, which has the lowest cost proposal, proposes pre-
concentrating water samples 20-fold for cadmium analysis MacLaren's
Plansearch Inc , having the next lowest cost proposal, can undertake the
cadmium analysis without pre-concentration

6. WATERFRONT PROJECT 1987-1991
-Asbbridge's Bay park - Coatswortb Cut Dredging
In response to a request for immediate action from Metropolitan Toronto
and concerns of the Ashbridge's Bay Yacht Club regarding an interna-
tional sailing regatta scheduled to commence August 1, 1987, staff
hired a contractor for emergency dredging of the Coatsworth Cut.
Two quotations were obtained, as follows
Kay Equipment Ltd. - MObilization/Demobilization $3,600
- Dragline - 100 ton crane $ 145/hr.
- Bulldozer (Anchor) $ SO/hr.
Wilson Excavating - MObilization/Demobilization $3,600
- Dragline - 65 ton crane $ 125/hr
- Bulldozer (Anchor) $ 60/hr.
Wilson Excavating was committed to other projects and could not
undertake the work within the necessary time frame. Kay Equipment was
available immediately and, given the urgency for implementing the work,
staff authorized the contractor to mobilize and start dredging as soon
as possible.
Work began on July 16 and by August 1, significant improvements to the
channel conditions had been made so as to satisfy the major concerns of
the ABYC with respect to the regatta. The remainder of the work will
be undertaken in late August and early September.

GBNBRAL COMMENTS
An Operating surplus of $8,200 is forecast for the year. This can be broken down by division as follows
Surplus/(Deficit)
$
Finance and Administration (6,400)
Water Resource (2,900)
Field Operations 13,800
program Services (2,000)
Black Creek pioneer village 5,700

-------
-------
The surplus and deficits are explained in the following divisional comments.
On the Capital accounts, a balanced budget is forecast. Over-expenditures are projected for the Metro Erosion
Project, Hazard Land Acquisition Project, Waterfront Development project, and the Niagara Escarpment Land Acquisition
Project. These will be recovered from land sales, additional provincial grant and municipal levy, levy-on-hand, owners'
contribution, and additional revenue from landfilling.
The Metro Land Acquisition project is expected to be underspent by $4.3 million.
page 2
OPERATING
Finance and Adainistration
A divisional operating deficit of $6,400 is forecast for the year The more significant variances projected are
outlined below:
l. Errors and Omissions insurance coverage has been quoted at a prohibitively high cost. This policy will not be
renewed, resul ting in an under-expenditure of $12,000.
2. Interest expense is forecast at $10,000 below budget as a result of lower than anticipated capital works expenditures
during the first half of the year, particularly in relation to the Metro Hazard Land Acquisition project.
3. A further $11,000 savings will be achieved by reduced requirements within the meetings, miscellaneous and rental
property accounts.
4. Third party general liability insurance has been quoted at 10\ increase over last year, resulting in an
over-expenditure of $9,000.
5. Rental revenue and interest revenue are forecast at $5,000 and $7,000 over budget, respectively.
6. The budget identified a $52,000 shortfall in provincial grant in relation to non-revenue property taxes. Staff is
being advised that some form of -tax relief program- which may benefit the Authority will be introduced in the near
future. Lacking specific details of provincial leg islation in this regard, staff has chosen to continue to carry the
$52,000 as a projected deficit.
7. A grant has been received in the amount of $19,766 for the supplementary year-end expenditure claim made to the
Ministry of Natural Resources in respect to W&RLM taxes and insurance. Due to the uncertainty of the receipt of
payment, the amount was not recorded in 1986.
Water Resource
A deficit of $2,900 is projected for the year. This is a result of the addition of three contract technician
positions at a cost of $30,000 to deal with the backlog of plan review applications. The Ministry of Natural Resources
subsidizes $11,400 and the Lawyer's Letter on Regulations is expected to generate additional revenue of $26,000 In
add i tion, an over-expenditure of $8,000 is anticipated to cover the AES maintenance contract for word processors in the
amount of $4,800 and an educational tour in the amount of $3,200 for staff to study erosion and flood control in the
Un ited S ta tes .
page 3
Field Operations
Attendance at the Kortright Centre for Conservation is 17% higher than 1986. Revenue is up 32% over 1986. This is
a result of marketing promotions, better program content and excellent weather.
Attendance at the Conservation Areas is down 6% from 1986 but revenue is up 15%. This can be explained as follows
- The drop in attendance is mainly confined to three conservation areas - Claireville, Cold Creek and Glen Haffy.
Although Claireville attendance is down 20%, revenue is up 26% as a result of increased campground activities and
additional revenue generated from maintenance work performed for the Water Park.
The drop in attendance at Cold Creek (35%) is due to changes in method of counting attendance. Instead of using a
conversion factor for each car, the exact number of persons are being counted and charged for admission. Revenue is up
37% at Cold Creek.
Attendance at Glen Haffy has decreased by 15% and revenue has also decreased by 7% This may be attributed to the new
requirement of licenses for anglers.
- Although attendances at Albion Hills and Bruce's Mill are almost the same as last year, revenues are up 14% and 16%
respectively, This is a result of higher ski fees, higher maple syrup prices and a better ski program at Bruce's
Mill.
A year-end surplus of only $13,800 is forecast despite higher rev'enue at the Kortright Centre and Conservation
Areas, and under-expenditures in Administration due to delay in filling vacancies. This is because Field Centre
Operation is projected to result in a deficit of $17,000 due to loss of the March of Dimes Summer program and two weeks
closing because of water problems in January. In addition, extensive repair works to the river trails at the Kortright
Centre is required because of the summer floods in 1986.
prograa Services
A year-end deficit of $2,000 is projected as a result of over-expenditure in hiring a consultant to perform a
feasibility study on the Strategy for Public Use of Conservation Authority Lands. The Study was requested by the
Municipality of Metropolitan Toronto with Metro special funding of $15,000. However, the lowest bid received was
$17,000.
Black Creek pioneer Village
Attendance at the village is almost the same as 1986 Attendance at the North York Winter Carnival has decreased by
7% from 34,000 to 32,000 visitors. without the Carnival attendance, the village has a 2% increase in attendance from
97,000 to 99,000 visitors.
page 4
Black Creek pioneer village contd.
Revenue is up 11% over 1986 due to increases in admission (7%), gift shop revenue (13%), weddings revenue (75%), and
Visitors Centre rentals revenue (66%). Although attendance is only up 2% over 1986, the mix of attendees has changed to
fewer family admissions, fewer citizenships and more adult admissions, resulting in higher admission revenue Excluding
the North york Winter Carnival, admission revenue per capita has shifted from $1.62 to $1.70 and gift shop revenue per
capita has increased from $1.40 to $1.53.
A surplus of $5,700 is projected for the year as a result of higher than anticipated revenue from the gift shop and
Food Service. The projected over-expenditure in development in the amount of $37,300 pertains to the Nesbitt Sawmill
project Funding from The Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Foundation will be available to cover the
over-expenditure.
Vehicle and Bquipaent
Expenditures in the first half of 1987 are on target. No variances from budget are expected for 1987.
Food Service
The result of the first half of 1987 is a net revenue of $11,600 which compares to a net loss of $39,200 in 1986.
The year-end projected result is a net revenue of $50,000, $20,000 over budget and $40,000 over 1986. This is expected
to be achieved despite the fact that $48,000 will be charged to Food Service for utilities and maintenance,an amount
which was absorbed by the Village in 1986.
The increase in net revenue can be attributed to the closing of the Canada West Room except for special catering,
better opening hours for the Half Way House, modest increase in revenue and better management in cost of sales and
wages.
These net revenues are incorporated into the divisional operating results.
Special projects
Special Projects are divided into two categories: Employment programs and Non-Employment Programs. The Employment
programs for 1987 are Canada Works and Experience '87. The Non-Employment Program relates to works the Authority
undertakes as a result of special funding becoming available during the year.
Major projects in 1987 are the TAWMS Project, Provincial Rural Beaches Study, SCRAPE program, Ashbridges Bay Beach
Improvements, Toronto Hunt Club Erosion Control Project, Donalda Golf Club Erosion Control Project, Archaeological Master
Plan, Renewable Energy program at Kortright, Experience '87 Program and Canada Works Program.
All special project expenditures are fully recovered from the sponsor.

CAPITAL
Metro Erosion
The Erosion and Slope Stabilization project is projected to be overspent by $89,000. The over-expenditure will be
funded by owners' contributions and additional provincial grants and levy. This can be explained as follows
Fallingbrook - unexpected owners' contributions totalling $66,000 allows the scope of work to expand.
48 Barkwin Drive - the initial phase of the engineering study has confirmed that the problem is not as serious as
anticipated. Therefore, the second phase of the study will not be required, which will produce a
saving of $3,000.
Glenorchy - The nature of the erosion was more serious and complex than expected, which necessitated additional
soils investigation that cost $7,000. .
Fishleigh Drive - Erosion problem at this site has become very serious, necessiting a study to be undertaken this year
in order for remedial work to be done in 1988 A special funding program by the Ministry of Natural
Resources will provide $8,700 of the total cost of $18,700.
Waterfront Development
An over-expenditure of $205,000 is forecast for the Waterfront Development Project The over-expenditures will be
funded mainly from additional revenue for landfilling at Sam Smith and the balance from additional grant and levy The
volume of fill at Sam Smith is much higher than expected due to higher construction activity in Etobicoke, and an
unexpected closing of a waterfront fill site in Mississauga. The sites where over- and under-expenditure occurred are as
follows
Humber Bay West - One of the navigation aids budgeted for has now been installed by Transport Canada. This saves the
Authority $10,000.
Bluffers Park - The responsibility for all of the landscaping of the marina site was accepted by MTRCA after 1987
budget estimates were submitted. In addition, some work planned for implementation in 1986 was
deferred until 1987. Construction costs have risen substantially this year due to the high volume of
landscaping work currently underway. As a result, the project is expected to be overspent by
$200,000.
Ashbridge's Bay - Delays in receipt of approvals for the dredging work resulted in higher equipment rates In addition,
since the lake level is much lower than predicted earlier, additional dredging will be necessary at a
cost of $10,000.
Tommy Thompson Park - A $5,000 over-expenditure is expected due to operating costs which are higher than anticipated
page 6
CAPITAL contd.
Hazard Land Acquisition
The Hazard Land Acquisition project is forecast to be overspent by $396,700. The over-expenditure relates to
acquisitions throughout the rest of the Authority's watersheds, and included the Hullmark Developments Property in the
City of Etobicoke as well as lands situated in the City of Scarborough required to facilitate the Authority's Shoreline
Management works. The funding for the over-expenditure will be available f rom land sale proceeds.
Acquisitions under the project for the first half of 1987 include
- 162 acre Crown water lot property at Colonel Samuel Smith Park in the City of Etobicoke.
- Negotiations were finalized with property owners in the second phase of the Fallingbrook Road Design Block in the City
of Scarborough This will facili tate the commencement of the shoreline protection works in this area.
Metro Land Acquisition
The status of the Metro Land Acquisition Project can be summarized as follows
- Expropriation of 43 acre former Toronto Brick property in the Borough of East York was carried out The Authority's
appraised value of $4.1 million was paid as an advance. A final settlement of the compensation is still under
discussion.
- The province has announced that approximately half of the 63.5 acre Lakeshore Hospital property in the City of
Etobicoke along the Lake Ontario Shoreline will be transferred to the Authority. Negotiations are currentlty underway
to determine a purchase price
The projected under-expenditure of $4.3 million relates to the fact that the Authority had earlier anticipated that
the entire 63.5 acre Lakeshore Hospital property would be made available to the Authority
Niagara Escarpment Land Acquisition
Acquisitions of the 30 acre Baker property and the 84 acre Weir property in the Town of Caledon were completed in
the first half of the year
The project is expected to be overspent by $400,000 to acquire two more properties in the Town of Caledon
Fund ing wi 11 be available from the Ontario Heritage Foundation to cover the over-expenditure

In 1986, parking revenue represented 39% of the Conservation Area revenue total
of $1,246,390.
The cost of collecting parking fees calculated as a percentage of the total
parking fees collected, are as fo llows
Albion Hills 20.1%
Boyd 13.3%
Bruce's Mill 7. 5%
Claireville 10.3%
Cold Creek 11.9%
Glen Haffy 21 4%
Greenwood 28.0%
Heart Lake 9.5%
Petticoat Creek 10.9%
The Authority's Conservation Areas were originally developed using funds
contributed by both the Province and the member municipalities This
arrangement reflected the philosophy that all citizens share in Conservation
/2
-2-
Area development Member municipalities also contributed to the operation and
maintenance of Conservation Areas through Municipal Levy which, in 1987
accounted for 57 6% of the total operating funds needed The balance of
operating funds are contributed by Area users through various fees including a
charge for parking
Objective B 10 of the proposed Strategy for Public Use of Conservation Lands
received at the Conservation and Related Land Management Advisory Board Meeting
14/87 recommends that the principle of free access to Conservation Areas be
considered in the long term In order for this objective to be met however, it
will be necessary to provide alternate sources for operating funds currently
covered by parking fees. In 1986 this amounted to $410,514 and is estimated at
$521,050 for 1988 Even if the Areas with the highest percentage costs of
collection, Albion Hills, Glen Haffy and Greenwood are considered a shortfall in
excess of $100,000 for 1988 could be anticipated if parking fees are eliminated
As well gate attendants provide access control and a source of visitor
information The control aspect is particularly important at Glen Haffy where
the weekday attendant also supervises the fishing ponds to obtain creel census
information and ensures fish limits are obeyed.
The strategy envisions new facili ties, programs and services in Conservation
Areas which will produce net revenues. The strategy presupposes that revenue
from private sector development will be used to contribute to capital
development costs and that net revenues from fees for programs and services
developed in the conservation areas would become available to replace parking
fees once major capital development has been completed. Staff feels that
elimination of parking fees is desirable and feasible but that at present
parking fees cannot be eliminated at Conservation Areas until the new
development is we 11 underway without requiring a significant increase in
municipal levy

/.I.S"
IMPACT Of PRIORITY ADDITIONS
The budget for Black Creek does not contain any new initiatives for 1988 In order to reduce the budget to 88.7t of the 1987
base, the following reductions have been .ade: close six restored buildings, stop repairs to boardwalks and fences.
postpone repairs to the Roblin's Mill f1 u.e wh1 ch .wi 11 prevent the production of flour, cut .a1ntenance of Village roads,
cut restored building aaintenance, not stain the cedar siding on exterior walls of the Visitors Centre, not restore the
budget for Village artisans and interpreters to the 1986 level, don't install the hydro service which is necessary to open
the Nesbitt Sawaill, don't open the Nesbitt Saw.ill.
( 1 ) The Village provides visitors with a representation of life in a rural Ontario cross-roads co..un1ty prior to
confederation. In order to portray the environ.ent of 1867, the artisans and interpreters in the homes and shops
depict the various occupations of the residents. A considerable aaount of Village attendance depends on repeat
visitation which often co.es froa word of .outh. The closure of even one of the restored buildings open at the
present t1.e, would have a detri.ental effect on attendance. Staff is consistantly getting co.pla1nts about the five
building which are not open Sawyer's Ho.e, Nesbitt Saw.ill, Dalziel Barn, R1ch.ond Hill Manse and the Dominion
Carriage Works.
( 2) See detail for #1.
( 3) Repairing the boardwalks is an on-going progra.. If they are not kept in good repair, they become dangerous
Boardwalks are needed for the elderly, disabled and children in strollers. The average life of a walk is about ten
years.
(4 ) A portion of the Roblin's Mill fluae was replaced in 1986. The re.a1nder .ust be done in 1988 in order to operate the
ail 1 .
( 5) The Village roads need extra aa1ntenance to bring the. to a reasonably good standard. Once the roads are improved, an
annual aaount of about $3,000 should keep the. in shape.
I/- b.
(6 ) See detail for #l.
(7) See detail for #l.
(8) It is alaost thirty years since soae of the buildings received .ajor .a1ntenance. or restorations when they were
brought to Black Creek. With 300,000 people going through the buildings each year there is a need for constant
aa1ntenance. Besides painting four or five buildings every year. it is necessary to re-roof some buildings, and
verandahs and roofs need aajor repairs or replaceaent on a regular basis.
(9 ) The stain on the wood siding of the exterior walls of the Visitors Centre is not protecting the wood, and thus
presents a aajor cost in the near future.
(10) See detail for #l
(11 ) See detail for '1.
( 12) This aaount for staffing the Village buildings was re.oved froa the 1987 budget. The result is that there are many
t1.es when there is not enough staff to aeet a1n1aal requ1reaents and buildings have been closed The S22,400 will
restore the staffing to the 1986 level.
( 13) A three-phase electrical service is necessary to run the Nesbitt Sawa111 when the steae boiler is not operating
This requires a new power service froa Vaughan Hydro. which can eventually be expanded to supply underground power to
four other restored buildings in this part of the Village.
( 14 ) The Nesbitt Sawa111 will add a new and very interesting de.onstration to Black Creek Village I t wi 11 generate Qood
publicity and give visitors soaethtng entirely new to see and talk about. Two trained artisans will be necessary at
all tiaes. In order to operate seven days per week. there will be three persons added to the seasonal staff

FROM W.A. McLean, Secretary-Treasurer
RE SUB-COMMITTEE REPORT ON HONORARIA, PER DIEM AND
EXPENSES FOR AUTHORITY MEMBERS
L Terms of Reference
The Sub-Committee on remuneration was created by the Executive
Committee at its Meeting #4/87 held on April 24, 1987. Its terms of
reference were to review the benefits and remuneration paid to members of
the Authority, the Chairman and the Vice Chairman. The Committee was to
report to the Executive Committee through the Finance and Administration
Advisory Board.
2. Meetings
The Sub-Committee, consisting of Mayor Lorna Jackson, Mayor William
McLean and Mr. Gordon Patterson met on May 8th and reported to the Finance
and Administration Advisory Board on June 3rd (see Appendix 1) . The Board
deferred the report of the Sub-Committee and requested that additional
information be provided. The Sub-Committee met again on June 26 and a
report and additional information were sent to the July 29th meeting of the
Finance and Administration Advisory Board. A copy of the report of the
Sub-Committee to the Finance and Administration Advisory Board and relevant
extract from the Minutes of Meeting 14/87 which was held on July 29th are
attached as Appendices 2 and 3.
The report of the Finance and Administration Advisory Board was
adopted by the Executive Committee on August 21 and referred to the meeting
of the Authority held on September 11th.
3. Comparative Remuneration
The Sub-Committee considered the following information
a) other conservation authorities
By georgraphic size, populations served and organizational
structure, only the Grand River Conservation Authority is
comparable with the M.T.R.C.A. The 1987 rates paid by the Grand
River Conservation Authority were
Chairman $34,500/yr. + mileage allowance
Vice Chairman $51/day.
Members $51/day.
Among six other conservation authorities surveyed whose size,
structure and population served were not comparable to that of the
M.T.R.C.A. or the Grand, there was a considerable range in salaries
paid:
Chairman - from $2,500/yr. + $33.80 per diem to $10,920/yr.
Vice Chairman - from $33.80 per diem (1986) to $1,675/yr. +
$42.50 per diem.
Members - from $33.80 per diem (1986) to $51.00 per diem
The remuneration paid by the M.T.R.C.A. in 1987 is:
Chairman $21,808.57 + a vehicle
Vice Chairman $ 8,331.85/year
Members $ 54. 34/diem.
- 2 -
b) Other special purpose bodies
After considerable discussion the Sub-Committee had agreed that
comparisons with other special purpose bodies were difficult
because no other organization was similar in mandate, scope and
responsibilities to that of the M.T.R.C.A. Nevertheless, the
salaries paid to appointed officials in various bodies were
reviewed

or a total of 215% over the IS-year period.
5. Job Descriptions
There is no job description for Members appointed to the
Authority. In 1985, job descriptions for the Chairman and Vice Chairman

report.

6. Conclusion and Recommendation
After considering all the information presented above, the
Sub-Committee to review remuneration agreed upon the recommendations that
were put before the Authority at its meeting on September 11. Therefore,
the Sub-Committee wishes to reiterate the recommendation of the Executive

MORICIPALITY OF METROPOLITAN TORORTOz 1987-1991
-proposed Erosion Control Work at Lawrence Avenue, West Branch of
Highland Creek, City of Scarborough
The problems at this site were identified during flood events in 1986,
but severe localized thunderstorms in the summer of 1987 have caused
the erosion to accelerate significantly so that it is threatening the
bridge abutments on Lawrence Avenue, a major pedestrian/cyclist path
and a Metro sanitary trunk sewer. Given the hazard associated with the
erosion, staff is recommending that funds be reallocated from 1987
activities where under-expenditures are forecast.
Metropolitan Toronto has been advised that the realloca~ion of the
Authority's grant funds would only provide protection to the pathway
and sanitary sewer, and therefore the Roads Department is preparing to
stabilize the riverbanks within the road allowance.
The cost breakdown for proposed Authority remedial work is as follows
Mobilization, access preparation
and sediment control $ 3,000
Installation of the armourstone
riverbank protection 64,000
Construction of the armourstone
weir 12,000

FROM EVALUATION AND REVIEW COMMITTEE
RE REPORT OF THE EVALUATION AND REVIEW COMMITTEE
The Evaluation and Review Committee was established by Authority resolutlon
* 128 and given the responsibility tOI
. 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;
. make such recommendations to the Executive Committee as it
may deem appropriate;
. report to the Executive Comllittee at lea.t annually.
At its fir.t lIeeting, the Co..ittee agreed to review existing Authority
progra.. in ter... of their pertinence to the conservation issue. of to-day
and more illportantly the direction. which the program. are taking to deal
with the i..pact of growth trend. on watershed resources.
At two subsequent ..eetings, staff were requested to outline their views as
to the current status of exi.ting prograll., the lIajor issues which must be
faced it current trend. are to be dealt with, and the opportunities which
exi.t for progra. develop..ent to deal with these issue..
Waterfront Develop.ent
The Authority ha. had a waterfront progra. since 1970. Over the seventeen
year. of involve..ent, enorllou. advance. have been lIade in waterfront
acce..ibility, n u. be r and variety of recreational opportunitie., and the
a.ount of .horeline in public owner.hip. Por the pa.t ten year. the
waterfront proqra. ha. had increa.inq lIunicipal .upport, but decreasing
Provincial fundin9 .upport. The current project 1987-1991 is funded for
1987 at 1/3 of tbe level at which the .unicipalitie. have agreed to on a
lIatching grant ba.i.. The i..ue. which .ust be faced it current trends are
to be dealt with arel
. The progra. ha. been so succe.sful, and interest in
waterfront facilities is so high, that the facilities created are
being used beyond their capacity. The very successful Lake
Ontario salllon fi.hing ha. added to the problell. There simply is
not roo. for everyone at the existing site..
- 2 -
. Provincial funding is an issue Current members of the
provincial legis lature do not necessarily identify with a plan
that was developed 30 years ago In the work that has been done
we have not glven the province the profile they deserve for their
part in the program The Metro area must compete with other
shoreline communities for waterfront dollars which have not
increased since 1972-
. We depend on land created through lake filling for increasing
waterfront access. The availability of land fill site s 1n
addition to providing new land, provides disposal site s close to
construction areas for clean excavated materials. There are no
satisfactory alternatives for disposal. Although Authority
testing of finished sites indicates no permanent deterioration of
the shoreline or water quality, the Ministry of the Env1ronment
continues to show concern. A report on this subject from M.O E
is expected later this year. The resolution of the land fill
question is essential if a crisis is to be avoided.
. The Authority as the manager of the shoreline has made a
difference. The conservation approach to the waterfront plan has
meant emphasis on the shoreline as a natural resource. Aspects
of the original plan which recommended use of the shoreline under
the Authority's jurisdiction for high rise residential were
deleted in favour of open space and recreational uses. This has
not been the case in the central sector which is not under the
jurisdiction of the Authority. Settinq aside areas for
environmental purposes has played a larqer role (Quffins,
French.ans 8ay, Rouqe, Petticoat, and HUllber marshes, Tommy
Thomp.on Park) .
Our role a. the environ.ental .anaqer i. tenuou.. Waterfront
fundinq is for capital work, not manaqe.ent and operations.
. The u.efulness of our land holdinq. in the Prenchmans Bay
area i. 11mi ted by the lack of a land connection between
Petticoat Creek and Frenchman. say. This i. important for access
to Frenchman. Bay. Virtually no funds are available for
Waterfront land acquisition at this ti.e.

is currently func1ec:t fro. a different . pocket- than Waterfront
develop.ent, it i. of relevance becau.e acce.. opportunities are

The re.olution of the i..ue. facing the Authority in the Waterfront Program
will provic:te the opportunity to take the progra. in the future direction

Headwater Area
It 1S the stated object1ve of the Author1ty to retain the headwater zone _ :1
a condition that wi 11 ensure tha t the water in the streams w1ll be of a
quality and quantity suitable for the maintenance of a high level
groundwater recharge, retention of a fisheries resource the minimizat10n of
the downstream 1mpacts of increased flooding, and reduct10n of erOS1on and
sedimentation.
This is not a new direction for the Authority. Earlier programs
and policies were related to the retention of the headwaters zone
Further, Authority progralls for upstreall erosion control, bank
stabilization, reforestation and fisheries retention have all been
successful in maintaining the source areas.
A re-examination of Authority policies and programs ill necessary because of
increased pressure on the headwaters zone to accomllodate additional
residential, recreational and mineral aggregate de.ands which is also
encouraged by improv.m.nts to transportation services including the proposed
developllent of major highways. The loss of agricultural and forest lands
to more active u.es requires the strengthening of previous Authority efforts
to maintain the headwater. zone.
The Authority's involve..nt in the headwaters area has included:
. The WatersheeS Plan (1980) and its new Storm Water Management
progra. aeSeSressed lIany of the concerns for upstream development.
While this progra. has achiev.d more control of development
specific to flood and erosion control, it does not address
mainten.nce of base flow, infiltration for groundwater retention
or water qu.lity in source ar....
. A lull in the econollY in the late 70's and early 80's
sugge.teeS that concern. for the heaeSwaters did not need
priority. The urgency felt in 1977 wa. dissipated in the
collap.e of building initiatives, only to be revived with
the .cono.y and construction starts in the mid-80's. Direct
i.pact includ.d both con.truction of housing and aggregate
extraction, an activity closely associated with d.velopment.
. The Authority undertook to study and designate
Environ.entally Significant Areas across its jurisdiction
This resulted in a 1982 Report identifying and describing site s
In the five years since completing this report, the Authority has
had only 11.i ted success in providing protection to these areas
because of its lack of regulatory powers for this purpose. To
date, the major n.gativ. impact. have been in the lowe r and
middle sections of the watersheds. As development extends
outward, the headwaters of Envi.ronmentally Significant Areas
will also obe affected.
- 4 -
The issues in respect of the headwaters area are related to current
pressures brought about by an expanding urban area
. increased demand for aggregate
. subdivision of land for residential use
. lack of identity of the Oak Ridges moraine as an
unique resource
. no comprehensive policy for managing the headwaters
The Authority has long recognized the importance of the headwaters,
particularly the Oak Ridges moraine, as an area of infiltration and
groundwater recharge. The filtering abilities of the constituent sand and
gravels, contribute to high source area water quality. It must be
recognized that in the headwater area where our rivers begin, the 10.. of
quality due to lack of management can nega te efforts and sub.tantial
expenditures which are being made to improve quality further down.tream.
Since its earlie.t day., the Authority ha. had progra.. to enhance the
headwater. and contribute to water.hed .anage.ent th"rough refore.tation and
stream improve.ent activitie. on it. own and private lana.. It has also
provided public recreation opportunitie. of it. land. at Albion Hills,
palgrave and Glen Haffy.
The potential negative impact. from changi.ng land use, particularly to
accommodate new develop.ent, could be significant. La.. of area. for
infiltration would recluce grouneSvater recharqe potential, water quality
woulcl be i.paireeS, the fi.herie. re.ouree would be lo.t, aneS the rate of
ba.e flow wouleS be affeeteeS.

Watershed Management and the Rouge Study
The Authority has well established programs for flood and erosion control
In addition to the remedial measures which form a large part of these
programs, the Authority places considerable emphasis on achieving its
watershed management objectives through its 'plan review' (commenting on
municipal plans) and regulation administration. The Authority's plan review
activity has contributed to achieving flood control objectives, particularly
since 1980, when the Authority added Storm Water Manage.ent, and Master
Drainage Planning to the advi.ory services it provide. to municipalities
Through the 1960's and early 1970's, the Authority al.o commented to
municipalities on the effects of proposed developments on wa te r quality.
Through a policy report entitled, 'Pollution Control and Recreation', three
zone. were recognizedl an urban zone, a develop.ent zone and a headwaters
zone. Comments of the Authority ba.ed on this report were related to the
way that sanitary .ewage would be handled in each of the zones.
With the develop..nt of the York-Durham ae.er and .a te r .yste. which results
in .o.t ...aq. b.inq treated at lakefront treatment plant. and services
beinq estended to the heart of our watershed., the planning zones and
po11cie. in the Authority position have become irrelevant. Since the
mid-1970'. there ha. been a vacuum in policy dealinq with overall watershed
quality, particularly .ater quality. With the rapid population growth
brought about by the current building explo.ion and no comprehensive
approach to environm.ntal quality, a crisia is developing over the future of
our valleys. In dea11 ng with this concern, there are a number of issues
- 6 -
. Responsib1.11.ty for environmental quality is fragmentea among
several agencies The Authority has the responsi bi li ty for
overall watershed management but the components of management are
spread among mun1.c1.palities, and the Ministries of Na tura 1
Resources, Environment and Agriculture and Food.
. The judgement in the suit which the Scarborough Golf Course
brought against the City of Scarborough and the Authority
highlighted the responsibilities of public agencies having
jurisdiction to ensure that they properly discharge their
mandate.
. The science by vhich reasonable quality standards can be set
and ameliorative measures proposed is not ve 11 advanced. Current
capabilities are largely subjective.
. Storm vater drainage is a major contributor to quality
degradation both from urban and rural areas. Drainage sources
are diffuse and technically very difficult to deal vi th. Streams
cross political boundaries so that drainage is.ues cannot be
dealt vith by a single lIunicipality.
The Authority is trying to deal with the evolVing issue. of Water.hed
Management. In 1986, the Water and Related Land Manage.ent Advisory Board
requested staff to prepare a report outlining a role for the Authority in
water quality a. a co.ponent of it. vater.hed manag..ent.
The Rouge River Watershed Study i. i.portant becau.e it i. a real attempt to
deal with the i..ue. affecting environ.ental quality on a watershed basis.
. It deal. with frag.ented jurisdiction, and intermunicipal
relationship. by bringing all partie. to the table as equals in
developing the .tudy and evaluating re.ult. for the purpose of
. negotiating .tandard.
. assigninq role. which will be comple.entary
. dealinq with up.trea. and down.trea. i..ue.
. It contribute. to .cientific knowledge by developing .ode li ng

a.eliorative .ea.ure..
. The .odel. being u.ed are effective only for fairly large

Watershed Recreation
The Authority, at lIleeting .5/87 approved the circulation of a report
entitled, 'Strategy for Public Use of Conservation Authority Lands' , to our
lIlunicipalities for comment. The strategy stresses the importance of the
30,000 acres of conservation land acquired by the Authority since 1957 and
the need to continue to manage the majority of these lands as natural areas.
The strategy identifies sites at Heart Lake, Albion Hills, Cold Creek,
Bruce's Mill and Clare.ont which are currently operated aa conservation
areas and which are in need of modest investments to upgrade and
rehabilitate existinq recreation facilities. The strateqy also identifies
sites at Claireville, Boyd, Greenwood and Petticoat Creek which are capable
of major re-development to upqrade the recreation facilities offered The
strateqy indicates that approxi.ately one-half of the investment needed on
these properties can cOllle fro. the private sector. These sites are located
in the major qrowth areas of our watershed and are adjacent to Metropolitan
Toronto.
The CO.llittee concurred in the several recolllllendations of the strateqy and

The Authority has been operatinq Black Creek Pioneer Vi llaqe and its
predecessor, the Edqe le y Pioneer MuseulI since 1957. In the past 27 years,
it has qrown froll a slllall reqional IIlUaeUII into an internationally r e no wn
institution. The most spectacular develop.ent has been the $5,000,000
Visitor Centre which opened in Decelllber, 1985. wi th the exception of the
visitor Centre, all capital development in recent years has been funded
- 8 -
through the Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservatlon Foundatlon and
Ontario Lottery funds However, the operatlon of some of the herltage
buildings has not been possible because of restraints on Authority levy
funding. On October 23rd, the Authority approved a funding request to the
Minister of Culture and Communications asking for 50' towards costs not met
by Village operating revenue and 50' funding from Lottery funds for
development projects.
Long term approved plans for the Black Creek Conservation Area include the
eventual development of three distinct living heritage areas. The first is
a pre-whi te (Huron) village on the six acre Parsons Si te located on BlaCk
Creek north of Finch Avenue. The second is a small pioneer farm located
on the Dalziel area, north and west of Steeles and Jane Streets. The third
is Black Creek Pioneer Village which is a well-established settlement
village of the lB60's.
The issues arel
. the gaining of special funding status with the Ministry
of Culture and Communication.
. opening of restored buildings.
. development and interconnection of the Indian Village
and the Pioneer Farm with Black Creek Pioneer Village.
. development of the main floor of Halfway House as a
public dining area.
There are many aspects connected with the development and interconnection of
the Indian Village which make it a tenuous proposal at best -- cost,
relationship to adjacent co..unity, acce.s, and alternative sites. The main
objective currently i. to continue to protect the Parsons Indian Site.

Conservatlon Education ...
The Authorlty's watershea Plan includes a Conservation Awareness Program
....hich has as its goal the communication to watershed residents, the
Authority's goals and objectives, the development of an awareness and
appreciation of natural resources and the Authority's ro le in their
management and the promotion of the Authority's public education and
recreation faci li ties. The Authority's education efforts continue to be a
key component in achievlng this goal through the programs presented to the
many groups, both youth and adult, that make use of the faci li ties provlded
at the residential and day use fie ld centres, Kortright Centre for
Conservation and the Black Creek Pioneer Village. The success of the
education program has stemmed from the Authority's ability to respond to the
needs of both the education community and the general public in the
development of its facilities and by providing high-calibre, we ll-trained
staff capable of developing prograllls to relay the Authority's message to
user groups. To continue to achieve the goal established in the Watershed
Program, the fOllowing issues IIIUSt be addressedl
. A clearly defined message that the Authority wishes to
present to its watershed residents must be developed. At the
same time, an internal comllunication system which provides
for maximum interaction between the education staff and other
Authority technical staff needs to be developed to ensure
that the program content is current and up-to-date, and is
addressing the priorities of the Authority.
. The Authority has established i tse if as a leader in
providing residential outdoor and conservation education
experiences, establishing four centres to date. The education
cOIl.unity has identified the need for additional facilities
to lIIeet its goal of providing more residential experiences.
The Authority has identified potential locations - Glassco
ca. pus - to lIIeet these needs. However, a review of Authority
lands is required to ensure that the 1II0st suitable locations
have been identified. The Authority must continue to work with
the Boards of Education in the develop.ent of new sites to allow
the Authority to reach an even greater audience with its message.
. Existing Authority faci li ties have the capabili ty of handling
larger numbers than are currently be i n 9 serviced. This provides
the opportunity to reach out to new audiences of adult and
special interest groups. This will require the development of
an effective marketing and prollotional program to target these
groups and attract them to our facilities. New programs and
exhibits e.9. rural beaches project information can be developed
as we 11 as working with professional research gr'oups that will
permit the Authority to present ita role in resource management
. As a large public landowner, the Authority is obligated to
identify its archaeological resources. This is being achieved
through th!l current archaeological heritage inventory proJect
which will provide an expanded information base for planning
purposes. This will result in the need for the Authority to
decide its role in any development of these resources

STAFP REPORT ON
REPLACEMENT or HIGH SPEED/HIGH VOLUME COPIER
FOR ADMINISTRATION PRINTING OPERATIONS
TO Chairman and Members of the Executive Committee, M T ReA
Meeting US, November 20, 1987
FROM James W Dillane, Director, Finance and Administration
RE REPLACEMENT OF HIGH SPEED/HIGH VOLUME COPIER FOR ADMINISTRATION
PRINTING OPERATIONS
purpose
This report recommends the acquisition of a high speed/high volume
copier to replace existing equipment which is no longer able to provide
either the quantity or quality of output required in our printing
operation. In addition, existing equipment is experiencing increasing
amounts of down time and rising repair costs.
Background
The Authority Head Office printing operation now includes three
photocopiers
. Xerox 9200 - rated 100,000 copies per month
(now running 108,000)
- installed January 1983
- first introduced by Xerox in 1974
- now providing poor copy quality
- requires excessive operator involvement,
with very limited productivity features
. Xerox 7000 - rated at 7,000 copies per month
(now running 9,lSO)
- installed December 1975 (acquired as
used equ ipmen t)
- introduced in the fall of 1965
- copy quality is poor and support for
maintenance soon to disappear.
. Xerox 104S - rated 28,000 copies per month
- installed in March 1985
- introduced in spring of 1983
- current volume of 31,SOO is well above rated
volume which is causing problems of
maintenance and product quality
As a result of problems with copiers and rising volume
requirements, we initiated a review of our photocopier needs. This report
addresses the replacement of our high volume/high speed copier (Xerox 9200)
and further recommendations will be coming forward with respect to the
small and mid-range copiers.
Aside from maintenance of the equipment and poor quality caused by
over-use of the machine, the Authority has experienced considerable growth
in the demands for copy material. In particular, the printing operation
has experienced a considerable demand for agendas, minutes, reports and
other material associated with the meetings of the Authority, Executive
Committee and the Advisory Boards.
Equipment Requirements
One consideration in this review was our desire to make better use
of our printing equipment and more efficient use of staff time. The
printing operation now includes two Gestetner offset presses, one of which
is more than 20 years old and is used extensively to produce flyers and
brochures on coloured paper with single colour ink. Use of an offset press
for this type of material is most efficient in high volume runs The
material once produced must be stored and may become out-of-date if not
circulated immediately.
- 2 -
Acquisition of a high vOlume/high speed copier with of fset quality
pr inting would enable the print shop to handle brochures and flyers on an
'as needed' basis with practically no set-up time and no storage
requirements For example, a brochure which may eventually require 10,000
copies can be printed on an 'as needed' basis in increments of 100, 1,000,
2,000 copies The flyer would be handled only once and mailed immediately,
rather than having to be printed, stored and handled a second time as each
distribution occurs. Also, the flyer will be updated eas ily and wastage
minimized
Selection Process
The selection of the high volume copier involved the preparation of
a list of specifications which staff at the Print Room felt were the
minimum that the Authority required Because there are very few producers
of high volume copiers, a decision was made not to spend time and money
advertising widely, but rather to directly approach these suppliers and
request proposals from them based on our spec if ica t ions. The following
companies were contacted Xerox, Kodak, Cannon, IBM , Sharpe and
Gestetner. I.B.M., Sharpe and Gestetner declined to quote because they do
not produce equipment with sufficiently high volume. Xerox, Kodak and
Cannon all submitted proposals.
At our request, Xerox supplied a model 1090 in August for test
purposes. Kodak declined to provide equipment but did invite staff to
visit their facility and have the appropriate equipment, a Kodak 235,
demonstrated. In addition, staff visited the Regional Municipality of Peel
which uses Kodak equipment to discuss with them the operating
characteristics
Cannon has no single piece of equipment which can provide all of
the necessary requirements and meet the Authority's volume needs Their
quotation to us required placement of two pieces of identical equipment in
our print Room. Each machine would be capable of handling up to 100,000
copies per month, which is a minimal requirement and leaves no latitude for
future growth. The key problem here is that we do not have space to
operate two machines, nor can we manage our staff so that one operator can
effectively handle both pieces of equipment. Accordingly, we have not
considered the Cannon proposal any further. The Members should be aware,
however, that when we look at medium-range equipment, Cannon and other
suppliers will certainly be asked to quote.
Spec if icat ions
Attached as Appendix 1 to this report is a description of the
spec if ica t ions for each piece of equipment Xerox 1090, Kodak 235 and
Cannon 8570. As noted, we do not believe the Cannon product is acceptable
The Xerox 1090 and Kodak 235 are similar pieces of equipment. Listed in
Appendix 1 beside each characteristic is an asterisk indicating fundamental
requirements to meet our needs. In particular, we requued the follow ing
. volume in excess of 200,000 copies per month and ideally up to
400,000.
copy speed in the range of 90 to 100 copies per minute
. variable reduction and enlargement in the range of 64% to 150%
. computer forms feeder and capacity of handling various paper
sizes.
. automatic multi-set two-sided copying.
. quantity selector, up to 9,999.
message display indicator
. image shift program
. stapling unit up to SO sheets per set.
automatic collating
. output tray capable of holding up to 1,000 sheets
copy contract selection to lighten or darken originals
cover insertions and sheet insertions
electronic auditron
. service support including 4-hour minimum attention to calls

Analysis of the Quotations
As can be seen in Appendices 1 and 2, the Xerox 1090 and Kodak 235
both provide features which meet the requirements established by Authority
staff. Both machines also produce almost identical quality of copies
Both have similar service arrangements and reputations for maintenance
which would present no problem The key advantages of the Xerox equipment
are its higher run speed, 92 copies/minute vs 8S copies on the Kodak and
the enlargement capability which is not available on the Kodak 235 Given
the environment in which this machine will run, the fact that the Kodak
equipment is much noisier would create problems. A visit by staff to peel
Region demonstrated that the Kodak equipment will be noisier than Xerox.
Staff has had the advantage of using the Xerox equipment for more
than two months and are quite satisfied with the quality and operating
characteristics. While some initial start-up maintenance was required,
there has been no equipment failure, which speaks well of the quality of
the product.
In summary, in considering the features of the equipment required
by staff, review of the Xerox 1090, Kodak 23S and Cannon 8570, the Xerox
1090 appears to be the best product
Cost Analysis
Appendix 3 which follows illustrates the cost comparison, both for
outright purchase of equipment and leasing. The Xerox 9200 which we
currently lease has 28 months to run on its lease at a cost of
$580.63/month. Our service costs for the 9200 continue to rise and,
effective october 1, will be approximately $.Oll/copy, or at our current
volume of 100,000 copies per month, $1100.00 per month Xerox has advised
that 9200 service costs will continue to increase because this equipment is
no longer in production and is rapidly being replaced. To undertake the
leasing or outright purchase of the new equipment, it will be necessary to
buyout the existing lease on the 9200, the total cost of which would be
$20,394.5S. Because this is a Xerox product and a Xerox lease, there are
internal advantages to them in refinancing the 9200 lease in favour of a
new product
Our purchase price comparison provides for a final purchase price
for the Xerox product which is less than the Kodak 23S or the two Cannon
8570.
Funding
This item was not budgeted in 1987 provision for increased lease
costs is included in the 1988 Preliminary Estimates.
our analysis of lease costs reveals that the Authority will pay in
the order of 16.5% per annum interest charges. The Authority's net
interest costs are in the order of 9%. It is proposed that the purchase be
financed from the vehicle and Equipment Reserve Fund and repaid over five
years using funds budgeted in the copier account. As mentioned, funding is
provided for in the 1988 preliminary Estimates.
If at year end a surplus is available, all or a portion of the
purchase price will be accommodated and the draw against the Vehicle and
Equipment Reserve Fund reduced. The amount budgeted in 1988 will be
reduced accordingly in the Final Budget to recognize the outright purchase
of the equipment in lieu of leasing.
Summary
To overcome problems of poor quality copying, increasing
maintenance costs with associated down time and to meet rising quantity
requirements, staff is recommending the acquisition of a new high
speed/high volume photocopier for the Administrative Office print Room
After careful review of equipment, staff has identified two products which
meet Authority requirements, the Xerox 1090 and the Kodak 23S The Xerox
1090 provides more features and meets more of the basic requirements that
the Authority has established. Review of equipment in operation confirms
- 4 -
the Xerox 1090 is most effective and that the Kodak 235 will constitute a
major noise problem if located in the work room. The Cannon 8570 has been
rejected out of hand because two pieces of equipment would be required for
which no room is available. The Xerox 1090 is the most cost-effective
purchase as documented in Appendix 3 to this report
RECOMMENDATION
THAT the proposal from Xerox Canada Inc. for the acquisition of a Xerox
1090 high volume/high speed photocopier be accepted at a cost of $78,111 08
plus provincial sales tax;
AND FURTHER THAT staff be directed to take the necessary action to enter
into a contract with Xerox Canada Inc for provision of this equipment

RBPOR'l' OF JIEB'l'IRG 11/87 OF TIlE EMPLOYEE SUGGESTION AWARDS SOB-COMMITTEE
Mr. Paul Nowak, currently the Superintendent of the Claireville
Conservation Area, was a Lead Hand at the Boyd area when he submitted the
suggestion that all conservation area signs be grouped together in an
-information board- format. The comprehensive information board concept
would provide convenient information access for our visitors and would
entail less on-going maintenance than conventional signs. The
Sub-Committee recommends an award of $50.00 to Mr. Nowak
Ms. Beth Clifford-Graham, an interpreter at Black Creek Pioneer village,
suggested that the Authority design special occasion cards, e.g. Merry
Christmas or Happy Birthday, that would hold a day pass to any of the
Authority's facilities. The cards would then be sold as gifts. This
suggestion will be implemented at Black Creek pioneer Village for this
Christmas Season. The Sub-Committee recommends an award of $7S.00 to Ms
Cli f ford-Graham.

TO The Chairman and Members of the Finance and Administration
Advisory Board, M T R C A , Meeting #6/87, Wednesday, November

FROM T E Barber, Director, Program Services
RE FOOD SERVICES PROGRAM
At meeting #16/86 of the Executive committee, held on January 16, 1987,
the following resolution was adopted
"Res. 221
THAT Report #1/86 of the Food Services SUb-Committee, as appended as
Schedule "A" of these Minutes, be received 1
AND FURTHER THAT the following action be taken
(a) Authority Food Services be managed by the Authority following the
termination of the contract with Dalmar Foods Limited 1
(b) The staff be authorized and directed to advertise and appoint a
Food Services Manager by contract to conclude by December 31, 1987;
(c) The appropriate Authority officials be authorized and directed to
extend the present management agreement with Dalmar Foods Limited
until such time as a Food Services Manager be appointedl
(d) The staff be authorized to retain the services of Dalmar Foods
Limited, as required, to provide member status in the Dalmar
purchasing group and advisory services on a regular basis, for a
fee of $2,200 a month;
(e) The staff be directed to develop an organization chart for the Food
Services section, and to make recommendations for a regular staff
complement for key supervisory/management and other positions
required on a fUll-time, continuing basis, with the appointments to
take effect January 1, 1988 "
At that time, it was agreed that staff would report back, prior to the
end of the year, on the evaluation of the program Subsequently, the
Finance and Administration Advisory Board, at its meeting #4/87, held on
July 29, 1987, adopted the following resolution
"Res. 36.
THAT the General Manager report to the Finance and Administration
Advisory Board on the Food Service Program by the end of 1987 "
The attached report to the Chairman and Members of the Food Services Sub-
Committee, dated Friday, January 23, 1987, is provided as background
information for the Board.
The position of Food Services Manager was extensively advertised, and
over 100 applications were received Lane Ayr was appointed Food
Services Manager, on contract, effective April 7, 1987 He was given
full accountability for the Food Services Program as of July 1st, 1987
At that same meeting the Finance and Administration Advisory Board
reviewed and recommended to the Authority a Food Services establishment
of twelve regular staff positions These positions, outlined in the
attached organization chart, were subsequently approved by the Authority
at its meeting #6/87 on September 11, 1987 There are an average of
sixty (60) supplementary employees, giving a ratio of 1 to 5 regular to
supplementary staff
2
To The Finance and Administration Advisory Board,
Meeting #6/87 - Wednesday, November 25, 1987 Page 2
A major objective of the Food Services operation was to reduce the food
and labour costs in 1986 from 40 8% and 36 65% respectively, to
acceptable industry norms As of the end of June these costs were 39 4%
and 33 4%, and at the end of October 38 9% and 34 6% This reduction has
been evident in all areas, but most significant in the snack bars and at
Black Creek Pioneer Village, and is a combination of greater volume of
sales and better cost control
The reduction of food and labour costs is the greatest factor
contributing to the forecasted increase in net revenues for 1987
Improvements in inventory, cash control, security procedures and cost
accounting have been implemented For example, drop safes have been
installed at both the Kortright Centre and Black Creek pioneer Village
The deposits at the Village are being done twice a week by a security
service
Considerable reorganization of budget with a cost accounting system for
each location and/or function has been initiated, and is being used
concurrently with the present system until the end of the year It is
proposed to utilize the new system in 1988 It will report revenues and
expenditures at each location for both visitor services and group
functions
Changes in service at Black Creek Pioneer Village included operating the
cafe for both cafeteria and table service during the period of January to
March 1987; opening the Half Way House in March and operating it
continuously since that time, with improved menUSl designating the Canada
West Room for group functions and peak days only
The refreshment stands at the Conservation Areas have produced more net
revenues than for the past several years Good weather this summer has
resulted in increased attendance at the Areas
The Authority experimented with mobile units for better service to the
visitors, especially group picnics It would appear that they offer
potential for increased sales and service, and therefore, increased net
revenues.
More attention has to be given to menu selection in themed programs,
especially at Black Creek, the Kortright Centre and Bruce's Mill, and for
outdoor group functions to reflect setting and program More standard
menus at the snack bars and Conservation Field Centres will be
implemented in 1988.
While some improvements have been made to the Food Services Program,
especially the quality of food and presentation, further training and
development of both regular and supplementary staff is required to
improve the service and will be undertaken in 1988.
An Equipment Reserve Fund was initiated in 1983 to repair or replace
furnishings, fixtures and equipment. The annual contribution is
_currently 4% of sales This fund has permitted the replacement and/or
repair of furnishings, fixtures and equipment at all locations, and has
increased from approximately $20,000 in 1983 to $63,000 as of October 31,
1987
It became obvious that while the repair or replacement of furnishings,
fixtures and equipment was adequately covered by the reserve fund,
funding was required for improvements to kitchens, eating areas and
washrooms and the reserve is now used for leasehold improvements The
major item under this category was washroom renovations at the Half Way
House ($8,500) in early 1987
Expenditures have never reflected the true, direct cost of services when
those services represent a substantial portion of the cost of operating
the building
To The Finance and Administration Advisory Board,
Meeting #6/87 - Wednesday, November 25, 1987 Page 3
starting in January of 1987 the cost of services for the food operations
for the visitors Centre, Black Creek pioneer village ($4,000 per month)
were charged to Food Operations, to give more realistic expenditures and
net revenues.
The accountability of the Food Services Manager to the Director of
Program Services has clarified the accountability for the performance and
improved communications for both the Director and the Manager
The staff has investigated alternate methods of purchasing and concluded
that being part of a larger purchasing group provides the Authority with
savings in both purchasing and administration. Consequently an
arrangement has been made for the Authority to purchase food and related
supplies through the suppliers to Metropolitan Toronto Hames for the
Aged, at their current prices The Authority will, therefore, save the
Dalmar fee of $26,400 per annum, commencing in January of 1988
The attached graph illustrates the net revenues from Rill Foods for a
four (4) year period 1978-l981, the comparative net revenues for the
period 1983-1986 under Dalmar Foods management fee, and the forecasted
revenues for 1987, under Authority management.
The Authority operated system has improved food services to its visitors
and has resulted in improved net revenues in the first part year, when
compared to the results of a management fee system, or a catering
contract.
It is anticipated that cost of both regular and supplementary staff will
increase considerably more than the consumer price index in 1988 It is
also anticipated that these costs will be at least offset by increases in
pricing, increased productivity, increased volume in group sales, and
reduced costs for purchasing

IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT the report regarding the Food Services Program be

FROM T. E. Barber, Director of Program Services
U: AUTHORITY FOOD SERVICES
rro. rebruary 20, 1959 to F.bruary 28, 1983 the Authority had exclusive
concesaion agreements for all its food s.rvices with the following
organizations:
- The Canadian National Institute for the Blind 1959-l972
- Canteen of Canada 1973-1977
- Warren Rill Catering Limited ft 1978-1983
In 1982 a Sp.cial Task rorc. on rood S.rvice. evaluated the sy.te. and s.rvice
and conclud.d that the conce..ion agr..m.nt. were not providing the s.rvice.
to the satisfaction of the Authority as outlined in the attached Task rorce
aeport (Pages 7 and 8).
This report s.t forth the sp.cific objectiv.s which were to provide a quality
food s.rvice, attractiv. to the visitor, while maxi.izin9~p.t r.v.nue. T~e
Task Fore. consid.red four alt.rnativ.. for the provision of food s.rvice.
at the Autbority'. public u.. facilities:
(1) An .xclu.iv. food conc.saion agr....nt for all outl.t.
(existing sy.t..);
(2) Multipl. food conc...ion agr....nt. for the various components
. (refr..hment .tand., Half Way Hou.e, Conservation Field Centre.
and tbe Kortright Centre for Con.ervation);
(3) An Authority admini.tered food s.rvice syste.,
(4) A "Management r..- food conce.sion agre.ment, award.d on a
basis similar to the pre.ent operation of the food service
at the Con.ervation rield Centres.
Th. Task Force concluded tbat th.r. w.r. many advantage. to an Authority
admini.tered food s.rvic. .y.tem, waich could .liminat. many of the
defici.ncie. exp.ri.nc.d und.r the .y.te. of an exclu.iv. food concession
agr....nt.
How.v.r, it wa. r.cognized that an Authority ad.inist.red sy.te. would have
so.. d.fieience.:
(1) the succe.. of the total syste. would depend on the
experti.. of tbe rood Services Manager;
(2) the rood S.rvice. Manager would serve three operating
divi.ions, making overall accountability diffiCUlt,. other
than reporting to the G.n.ral Manager;
(3) the rood S.rvice. Manager would not be able to draw on
th. exp.rti.. of an exp.rienced catering fir.;
(4) the rood S.rvice. Manag.r would not have the buying
pow.r of a large cat.ring firm.
It was concluded that the advantage. of an Authority operated system at that
time, combined with the exp.rtise and guidance of a competent caterer operating
on a -manage..nt fee- basis, would offer the Authority the best opportunity to
achieve its food service Objectives.
After extensive advertising and evaluation of detailed proposals, the firm of
Dal.ar Foods Limited was selected to manage the Authority's Food Services

RE: AUTHORITY FOOC SERVICES
This fee provides direct management for the program and includ9s:
(1) selection, supervision and direction for the Food
Services Manager;
(2) Advice to the Authoritiy on all food service matters;
(3) Menu planning and other industry expertise;
(4) Meabership in the Calmar Purchasing Group.
Calmar Foods provides the Manager and the Administrative Assistant and is
reimbursed the full cost by the Authority. All costs, including food and
staff (up to 50 during the peak operating season) are paid by the Authority
and the Authority receive. all revenues.
In order to determine the effectiv.n... of the current -Managem.nt F.e-
syst.m, with the Authority providing food services in conjuction with Dalmar
roods Limited, a review wa. completed in November of 1986. Interview. with
Calmar and Authority statf re.ulted in the identification of seven is.ue. a.
follows:
1. Authority Objectives
2. Wages
3. Menu Developm.nt
4. Inventory/Ca.h Cont:ol/Audit
5. Buying Power
6. Staff Tr.ining and Development
7. Organization and Reporting R.lationship.
The r.view contirmed that visitor. .r. the principal client group and that
.ervice and satistaction has priority over net revenue. ror example, the
busin... person having lunch in the Canada We.t Room at Black Cr.ek Pioneer
Villag., is not nec....rily compatible with the requirement of the Village
visitor ~ho would pr.t.r to have lunch in the Half Way Hou.e.
The Vi.itor Centre Cate and Canada We.t Roo. have incr..sed the number of
r.staurant .eat. from 90 in the Half Way Hou.e, to a total ot 410, or 4.6
time. the pr.viou. tot.l. The.e number. do not include the patio seat.
(between 300 and 400). It is obvious th.t there is just not enough business
in relation to cost to .upport both the Canada W.st Room and the Half Way
Hou.e being open, except for special event. when a very large attendance i.
anticipat.d.
The pr.ctice, as of January 1, lt87 of using th. Canada West aoo. tor group

aE: AOTHORITY FOOD SEaVICES Page 3
Menu selection must provide for customer preference. Where appropriate, it
should reflect the setting. It is particularly important that some food
reflect tbe historic "authenticity. a~ Black Creek Pioneer Village.
.
It has been concluded that improvements are required in the inventory, cash
control, security procedure., 'cost accounting at each location. Senior
Manage.ent and the rinance and Administration Division have initiated a
detailed study of the require.ents in these areas for the Pood Services
Section, leading to an operating .anual that will permit all employees to be
familiar with the procedures and their re.pective roles. Additional Staff
training and development in both the prOvision of food and visitor information
regarding the Authority, clearly needs to be improved through a planned
program assigned to a specific individual.
Seing associated with tbe considerabley larger Calmar Foods PurChasing Group
lowers the cose of food to ehe Authority and ensures delivery to remote field
location. and should be continued.
The review concluded tbat the reporting relationship of the Food Service
Manaqer to Dal.ar rood. Limited, the Staff Pood Service. St.ering Committee and.
the Director ot Program Services resulted in so.e contusion and difficulties
in accountability tor the program. It was concluded that the Staff Pood
Service Steering Committee should be disbanded, Dalmar rood. should have an
advi.ory re.ponsibility and the Director of Program Service. should have total
accountability for tbe operation of tbis section.
It is true that the rood Service. progra. has not achieved the-very hiqh
expectations for service or net reveQue that were sat forth in the Task Porce
Report of 1982. However, there have been sub.tantial improvement. in the
program wben compared to the .ervice offered by previous caterer..
Onder the previous food .ervice aqreement the food service equipment was the
property of tbe Authority. Consequently, tbe replace.ent and/or repair of
this equipment wa. the re.pon.ibility ot tbe Autbority.
In 1984 aa !quipmeQt Reserve rund for the replacement andlor repair ot food
service. equipment was established, with annual contribution. fro. the food
service. operation. The annual contribution i. currently 4' of gro.. revenue.
OVer the last three years the equipment in all the kitchens has been improved
considerably. The Authority has al.o been able to upgrade the .atety
standards of the food .ervice. operation, using the fund. available in the
Equipment ae.erve rund. As of December 31, 1986 the Pund has a balance of
$65,510.
Many more maintenance co.t. are now being charged to the food service.
operation. This maintenance wa. also being provided by Authority funds
under the previous cataring contract.
Attached i. an analy.i. of gross and net revenue for the food service
operation co.paxin9 the pa.t four year. with the previous caterer.
Maintenance co.ts and rood Service Equipment Re.erve annual contribution. have
been added to tbe net revenue. produced by the current Pood Service operation
to more accurately compare net revenua..
The .tatf have concluded that the appointment of a qualified and competent
Pood Service. Manager reporting to the Director of Program Service., i. the
key to improving the service and reducing the overall food and labour co.t.
fro. 40.8' (actual 1986 tor food cost.) and 36.6' (actual 1986 labour costs)
clo.ar to acceptable industry norms, thus increasing the net revenue. credited
to the Authority progr.... It i. also concluded that Dalmar rood. should ~e

1987 PIRARCIAL PROGRESS REPORT NO. 3
october 31, 1987
GENERAL COMMENTS
An Operating surplus of $239,500 is forecast for the year. This can be broken down by division as follows
Surplus/(Deficit)
$
Finance and Administration 162,200
Water Resource (34,500)
Field operations 138,400
Program Services (3,700)
Black Creek pioneer village (22,900)
239,500
--------
--------
Recommendations for the disposition of surplus funds will follow with the presentation of the 1987 financial
statements and 1988 final budget.
On the Capital accounts, a balanced budget is forecast. Expenditures are projected to exceed budget for the Metro
Erosion Control project, Hazard Land Acquisition project, Waterfront Development project, and the Niagara Escarpment Land
Acquisition project. These will be recovered from land sales, additional provincial grant, levy-on-hand, owners'
contribution, and additional revenue from landfilling.
The Metro Land Acquisition project is expected to be underspent by $4 8 million.
Page 2
OPERATING
Pinance and Ad.inistration
A divisional operating surplus of $162,200 is forecast for the year. An analysis of the more significant variances
follows:
I. Interest expense will be $10,000 below budget while interest revenue will exceed budget by approximately $192,OOO as
a result of major expenditures within the capital program occurring later in the budget year than originally
anticipated, particularly in relation to the Metro Hazard and Conservation Land Acquisition Project. Interest rates
have also been higher than assumed.
2. The forecast provides for the purchase of a high volume photocopier (pending appropriate expenditure approval) and
for the financing of the purchase price ($78,000) by a temporary borrowing from the Vehicle and Equipment Reserve
This expenditure and related financing account for the major variances reported under administration (equipment
account) and other funding (V I". E Reserve).
3. Errors and Omissions insurance has been discontinued resulting in a saving of $12,000. Employee Bonding and
Dishonesty insurance has been renewed at $7,000, $3,000 over budget.
4. property taxes on non-revenue producing properties are $24,000 below budget. Third party liability insurance has
come in at $9,000 over budget. The budget had identified $52,000 as a potential other source of income (tax rebate)
for taxes on non-revenue producing properties. It is unlikely that this amount will be forthcoming and consequently
no provision has been made in the accounts.
5 Cost of operating the print shop will exceed budget by $7,000, reflecting a greater demand for printing services
6. Expenditures on the Authority's rental portfolio will exceed budget by $17,000. This variance can be attributed to
realty taxes ($ll,OOO) and major maintenance ($6,000). Rental revenues are expected to exceed budget by $10,000
7 The office renovation project will exceed budget by $5,000, due to higher than anticipated costs of moving computer
equipment and electrical installations.
8 The hiring of a consultant for the Employee Benefit Survey approved by the Board accounts for $6,000 of the
over-expenditure in administration costs.
9 A provincial grant in the amount of $19,766 related to 1986 tax/insurance expenditures was received in this year
Due to uncertainty of receipt, this amount was not recorded in the accounts in 1986
page 3
Water Resource
A deficit of $34,500 is projected for the year This is a result of the addition of three contract technician
positions ($30,000) to deal with the backlog of plan review applications and a Plan Review Technician ($22,000) to handle
"lawyers' letters" on Regulations. The Ministry of Natural Resources subsidizes $8,250 and the administrative charges
for "lawyers' letters" on Regulations are expected to generate additional revenue of $26,000. In addition, an
over-expenditure of $8,000 is anticipated to cover the AES maintenance contract for word processors in the amount of
$4,800 and an educational tour in the amount of $3,200 for staff to study erosion and flood control in the United States.
The Conservation Services Operations is projecting a deficit of $9,500 due to the unexpected need to remove trees in the
Authority-owned valley lands which are hazardous to adjacent properties.
Pield operations
Attendance at the Kortright Centre for Conservation is ls% higher than 1986. Revenue is up 19% over 1986. This is
a result of marketing promotions, better program content and excellent weather.
Attendance at the Conservation Areas is up 5% from 1986 and revenue is up 14%. This can be explained as follows
- Although Claireville attendance is down 4%, revenue is up ll% as a result of increased campground activities and
additional revenue generated from maintenance work performed for the Water Park
- The drop in attendance at Cold Creek (42%) is due to changes in method of counting attendance Instead of using a
conversion factor for each car, the exact number of persons are being counted and charged for admission. Revenue is up
19% at Cold Creek.
- Attendance at Albion Hills is up 5%; revenue is up 17% over 1986 due to higher ski fees.
- Attendance at Bruce's Mill is up l6%; revenue is up 25% This is a result of higher maple syrup prices and a better
ski program at Bruce's Mill.
- Petticoat Creek's attendance and revenue are up substantially, 27% and 31% respectively This can be attributed to
increased swimming pool activities during the hot summer months.
A year-end surplus of $138,400 is forecast as a result of an exceptional year at the Conservation Areas. Revenues
in all Conservation Areas except palgrave and Boyd have exceeded their budgets.
progra. Services
A year-end deficit of $3,700 is projected primarily as a result of over-expenditure in hiring a consultant to
perform a feasibility study on the Strategy for Public Use of Conservation Authority Lands The Study was requested by
the Municipality of Metropolitan Toronto with Metro special funding of $15,000. However, the lowest bid received was
$17,000.
page 4
Black Creek pioneer village
Attendance at the village is down 3% from 1986 but revenue is up 3%. The revenue increase ~an be attributed to an
11% increase in gift shop revenue and a 45% increase in weddings revenue and Visitors Centre rentals revenue. Although
attendance is down 3% from 1986, the mix of attendees has changed to fewer family admissions, fewer citizenships and more
adult admissions, resulting in higher admission revenue Excluding the North York Winter Carnival, admission revenue per
visitor has shifted slightly from $2.06 to $2.10 and gift shop revenue per visitor has increased from $1 32 to $1 51
A deficit of $22,900 is projected for the year as a result of the drop in admission, buildings and photography
revenues despite higher revenue from the gift shop, weddings and Food Service. The projected under-expenditure in
development in the amount of $293,500 pertains to the parking lot lighting and maintenance workshop projects since
funding for the projects is not available.
Food Service
The result of the first ten months of 1987 is a net revenue of $50,800 which compares to $13,900 in 1986. The
year-end projected result is a net revenue of $60,000, $30,000 over budget and $50,000 over 1986. This is expected to be
achieved despite the fact that $48,000 will be charged to Food Service for utilities and maintenance,an amount which was
absorbed by the village in 1986.
The increase in net revenue can be attributed to the closing of the Canada West Room except for special catering,
better opening hours for the Half Way House, modest increase in sales, better management in cost of sales and wages, and
the reduction of management fee to Dalmar Foods Ltd.
These net revenues are incorporated into the divisional operating results.
Special projects
Special projects are divided into two categories Employment Programs and Non-Employment programs. The Employment
programs for 1987 are Canada Works and Experience '87. The Non-Employment program relates to works the Authority
undertakes as a result of special funding becoming available during the year.
Major projects in 1987 are the TAWMS Project, provincial Rural Beaches Study, SCRAPE program, Ashbridges Bay Beach
Improvements, Toronto Hunt Club Erosion Control project, Donalda Golf Club Erosion Control project, Archaeological Master
plan, Renewable Energy Program at Kortright, Experience '87 program and Canada Works program
All special project expenditures are fully recovered from the sponsor.

CAPITAL
Metro Erosion
The Erosion and slope Stabilization Project is projected to be overspent by $131,900. The over-expenditure will be
funded by owners' contributions and additional provincial grants and levy. This can be explained as follows:
South Marine Dr. - delay in slope work due to unavailability of fill results in an under-expenditure of $50,000.
Fallingbrook - unexpected owners' contributions totalling $45,000 allows the scope of work to expand.
Kingsbury and - delay in expropriation process results in an underexpenditure of $75,000 for Kingsbury and $55,000 in
Crescentwood Crescentwood.
Lakehurst - Works planned for 1988 are accelerated to this year to utilize the underexpenditure in Kingsbury.
Fishleigh Drive - Erosion problem at this site has become very serious, necessitating a study to be undertaken this year
in order for remedial work to be done in 1988.
Scarborough College
I". Highland Creek - Erosion problems at these sites have become more serious than originally expected, necessitating
accelerating the work to be done in 1987.
Tyndall Nursing Home
The project has to be delayed to 1988 because of problems in reaching an agreement with property owner.
waterfront Development
An over-expenditure of $228,000 is forecast for the Waterfront Development Project The over-expenditure will be
funded from additional revenue for landfill at Sam Smith. The volume of fill at Sam Smith is much higher than expected
due to higher construction activity in Etobicoke, and an unexpected closing of a waterfront fill site in Mississauga.
The sites where over- and under-expenditure occurred are as follows:
Sam Smith - An under-expenditure of $120,000 is projected due to consultant advice against armouring in 1987, to
allow for development of flatter underwater slopes over the winter season
Humber Bay West - One of the navigation aids budgeted for has now been installed by Transport Canada This saves the
Authority $10,000.
page 6
CAPITAL contd.
Waterfront Development contd.
Bluffers park - The responsibility for all of the landscaping of the marina site was accepted by MTRCA after 1987
budget estimates were submitted. In addition, some work planned for implementation in 1986 was
deferred until 1987. Construction costs have risen substantially this year due to the high volume of
landscaping work currently underway. As a result, the project is expected to be overspent by
$208,000.
Ashbridge's Bay - This project is going to be overspent by $130,000 to complete beach filling as drowning occured in
July. In addition, delays in receipt of approvals for the dredging work resulted in higher equipment
rates, and, since the lake level is much lower than predicted earlier, additional dredging will be
necessary at a cost of $lO,OOO.
Tommy Thompson park - A $5,000 over-expenditure is expected due to operating costs which are higher than anticipated
Hazard Land Acquisition
The Hazard Land Acquisition project is forecast to be overspent by $526,700. The funding for the over-expenditure
will be available from land sale proceeds.
Acquisitions under the Project include:
- 162 acre Crown water lot property at Colonel Samuel Smith Park in the City of Etobicoke at nominal cost.
- Hullmark Developments Ltd. property, being a 100-acre parcel of flood plain and valley land situate in the West Humber
valley in the City of Etobicoke ($190,000) .
- F. I". G. Torriero property, being a one-acre residential property required for the German Mills Channelization Project
in the Town of Richmond Hill ($250,000) .
- A number of small shoreline parcels along Lake Ontario in the Fallingbrook and Kingsbury and Harding areas, required
for shoreline management works.
- Staff is proceeding as expeditiously as possible to complete acquisition of remaining lands required to facilitate
early construction of the German Mills Channel
page 7
CAPITAL contd.
Metro Land Acquisition
The status of the Metro Land Acquisition Project can be summarized as follows
- The purchase of the Bathurst Manor Day Camp and Swim Club Limited property, containing approximately 17 acres more or
less, situate in the West Don River valley in the City of North York, at a purchase price of $3 5 million, was recently
approved by the Members of the Authority. Staff is proceeding quickly to obtain the remaining formal approvals
required, in an attempt to complete this transaction prior to December 31, 1987.
- Expropriation of 43 acre former Toronto Brick property in the Borough of East York was carried out. The Authority's
appraised value of $4.1 million was paid as an advance. A final settlement of the compensation is still under
discussion.
- The province has announced that approximately half of the 63.5 acre Lakeshore Hospital property in the City of
Etobicoke along the Lake Ontario Shoreline will be transferred to the Authority. Negotiations are currently underway
to determine a purchase price.
The projected under-expenditure of $4.8 million relates to the fact that the Authority had earlier anticipated that
the entire 63.5 acre Lakeshore Hospital property would be made available to the Authority.
Niagara Escarpment Land Acquisition
, Acquisitions of the 30 acre Baker property and the 84 acre Weir property in the Town of Caledon were completed
earlier in the year.
While negotiations are continuing on a number of other potential purchases, no other significant expenditures are
expected during the balance of the year.
Funding will be available from the ontario Heritage Foundation to cover the over-expenditure.

Introduction
After meeting with representatives of Management, The Alexander Consulting
Group was commissioned to conduct a survey of the attitudes of the
employees of M.T.R.C.A. This survey was conducted in the form of a
confidential questionnaire which was distributed to all employees
throughout the organization. 67% of employees returned completed
questionnaires to The Alexander Consulting Group.
The overall goal of this study was: to determine it the M.T.R.C.A. is
receivinq value tor the money it invests in its employee benetits proqram.
The following four objectives were established to help determine employees'
perceptions of the value of their benefits:
l. To measure employees' understanding of the benefit program.
2. To assess employees' expectations of the Authority's
benefit program.
3. To identify how receptive employees are toward change
in their benefit program.
4. To determine a ranking of benefits that are most and
least important to employees.
In the Executive Summary of this report, we have outlined our findings in
relation to these objectives. We also have made some recommendations for
an action plan that could be developed to address the issues raised in this
survey. The balance of the report contains specific detail and
documentation on the findings highlighted in the summary.
We are pleased to submit this report to the M.T.R.C.A., and are available
at your convenience to discuss the findings in more detail.
Sincerely,

ANALYSIS OF SURVEY DATA
Choice
The Authority's benefit program is designed to meet the needs of family
groups. A large proportion of the Authority's employee group, however, is
without dependents (52%) and under the age of 34 (43%). Many of the
benefits are not seen as being necessary for the majority of employees at
the present time. It appears that the plans have been designed to meet the
needs of the minority. "There should be more flexibility in our benefits,"
says one employee, "to allow individuals to choose. The package is geared
to older, more established employees."
Another employee points out that: "Two employees of equal job category
should get the same total benefit value, i.e. OHIP premiums are different
for single and married and the cost of benefits for female employees on
maternity leave should also be provided to male employees to use toward
other benefits."
Yet another employee says: "There isn't enough information about what
benefits exist. I seldom use many of the benefits, and would do away with
some in exchange for others that I need."
In future, as the demographics of the Authority's employee group changes --
as employees mature and begin to have families, for instance -- interest
in, and use of, the current benefit program may increase. An issue for the
Authority to consider is whether to modify the existing program to meet the
short-term needs of current young workers who do not have families;
communicate the longer-term benefits of the program to all employees; or
modify the program to give more choice to all employees.
If employees could select four additional items to include in the benefit
package, the majority would choose the following:
#1 - Vision care
#2 - Flexible hours
#3 - Education leave
#4 - Leaves of absence/RRSP payroll deduction (tied
for fourth place)
i~e
' ,The Alexander
0,,_. ConsulttngGroup
Imoortance
Employees ranked elements of their current benefit program in the followin
order of importance:
#1 - OHIP
#2 - Extended health care
#3 - Vacations
#4 - Pension plan
#5 - Long-term disability insurance
#6 - Dental care
#7 - Sick leave plan
#8 - Life insurance
Factors determining employees' decisions to join the Authority were ranked
as follows:
#1 - Nature of jOb
#2 - Type of business
#3 - More responsibility
#4 - Better career advancement
#5 - Working conditions
#6 - Salary
#7 - Benefits
#8 - Vacation
#9 - Pension
If these same employees were considering chanaina employers, however, the
following factors would rank in importance:
#1 - Nature of job
#2 - Salary
#3 - Better career advancement
#4 - Working conditions
#5 - Type of business
#6 - More responsibility
#7 - Benefits
#8 - Vacation
#9 - Pension
If changes were to be made at the Authority, employees rank the following
areas as priorities for improvement:
#1 - Opportunity for advancement
#2 - Internal communication
#3 - Training
#4 - Job content
#5 - Pay
#6 - Quality of staff
#7 - More modern equipment and technology
The benefit program ranks #11 in this list of priorities

The Alexander
In Summary _' Consulting Group
1. From the perspective of the responding employees the M.T.R.C.A. is not
getting the best value for the money spent on non-legislated benefits.
2. There is an identifiable group, younger employees
without dependents, who tend to undervalue the
benefits more than the rest of the employees.
3. Though the majority of employees do not think they are getting the
the best value, 86% think the money spent on benefits is wisely
spent.
4. In general, the benefit plan is a low priority with
employees in terms of the need for change.
5. Though change is a low priority, approximately 30%
of the employees are receptive to change.
Recommendations
1. Education
There is a need to educate your employees about their benefits. The
emphasis should be on the application of the benefit, not specific
details of the plan.
The low number of respondents who would replace their benefits
indicates that it is the intent of the benefit, not the details, which
needs to be stressed.
2. Chanae
The benefit package is not perceived as being responsive to the needs
of employees without dependents. The current demographics suggest
this group of employees is substantial. If the Authority expects to
always employ a substantial number of younger employees without
dependents, there is merit in considering change.
There is definite interest in more flexibility in exchanging benefits.
There is also an interest by a third of the employees to contribute to
an improved plan. There is merit in re-designing the plan to allow
for more flexibility. This plan re-structuring is consistent with
what many other organizations are considering.
3. Review
Questions of a general organizational nature were included in the
survey. They were primarily included as a measure of overall
satisfaction. 74% of the responding employees agreed with the
statement, "Overall, the Authority is an excellent place to work."
If we had found a negative impression of the benefits, we would have
examined the relationship to overall satisfaction. Our review shows
that further analysis is not required.

FOR AUTHORITY INFORMATION
6. CORRESPONDENCE
The General Manager reported receipt of correspondence, dated January 4, 1988,
from The Association of Conservation Authorities of Ontario concerning Bill 68
- "An Act to promote the Conservation of Certain Land" (short-titled
"Conservation Land Act, 1987) , given 1st Reading in the Legislature December
14th, 1987
B-221 -6-
The Act makes provision for lands determined to be of natural significance,
such as wetland The owners of such lands would be made a rebate on municipal
taxes the Authority is the owner of a number of parcels of land eligible
under the program Provision has been made in the 1988 budget for such
rebate, which is expected to considerably assist the Provincial cash flow thi~
year The Authority recommended to the Minister of Natural Resources that the
legislation include conservation authority lands which have been developed for
recreation and which produce revenue The Minister has r~sponded as follows
" The primary purpose of the program was clearly to remove any financial
disincentive to acquire or retain natural areas in a pre-development
state It was with this in mind that revenue-producing Conservation
Authority lands were excluded from the program The Ministry of
Natural Resources is satisfied that the "Conservation Lands Tax
Reduction Program" properly focuses on those categories of land which
are most in need of being retained in a natural and undeveloped state
"
As instructed, the General Manager also requested the support of The
Association of Conservation Authorities of Ontario The matter was considered
and referred to the Executive Committee of the Association for review and
report
