A-13 t 1980 REPORT I TO THE 25TH ANNUAL MEETING THE METROPOLITAN TORONTO AND REGION CONSERVATION AUTHORITY On February l, 1981, The Hetropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Authority began its twenty-fifth year of activity I do not intend to describe for you the achievements of the Authority during the past 24 years, as there will be a number of opportunities in 1981 when we can observe, celebrate, and enjoy Authority achievements A special 'Silver Anniversary' report will be published at the beginning of 1982 that will outline the first 25 years of history of the Authority I do, however, wish to pay tribute to those who have made the achievements of the AutfJol-ity possible I first commend the Government of the Province of Ontario, which enacted The Conservation Authorities Act in 1946 The fundamental principles of the Act are to manage natural resources on a watershed basis; to give responsibilities to the local people in the watershed for initiating and developing effective resource management programs; and to provide financial and technical assistance These principles have formed a sound, effe,-tive, and successful method of operation for the 39 Authorities in Ontario The Conservation Authorities movement has had the support of three outstanding Premiers, and we are delighted that Premier William Davis has joined us today to celebrate the beginning of our twenty-fifth year Several departments and ministries of the Province of Ontario have administered the Authorities' movement, and we have always enjoyed an outstanding measure of support and guidance in our endeavours The Honourable James Auld, Minister of Natural Resources, is truly A-14 - 2 - representative of the kind of leadership which has stimulated the progress of our work The member municipalities of the Authority are its cornerstone Many changes have taken place in municipal organization during the past 24 years, including the establishment of three new regional governments within our area of jurisdiction, and the growth and development of The Municipality of Metropolitan Toronto The prime motive for the establishment of the Authority in 1957 was to take a more regional approach to resource problems in the Toronto region, and to enlist the support of The Municipality of Metropolitan Toronto in planning and financing effective conservation programs In the beginning, the role of Metropolitan Toronto and its Chairman was critical, and the following quote from the first Annual Report by Dr Arthur Herbert Richardson acknowledges our indebtedness to Metro "I am very grateful to Mr Frederick G Gardiner for hiz guid~ncc uod personal enccu~agcillent to me in this great work, which will mean so much to our people in the years to come " All four Chairmen of Metropolitan Council have upheld the Authority, and Paul Godfrey, the present incumbent, continues a tradition of support and guidance for which we are deeply indebted All of our municipalities have provided the same strong support for the work of the Authority As new regional governments have been formed, the Authority has developed the same kind of close working relationships that were developed with Metropolitan Toronto in the early days The Authority has had the support of the Chairmen of the Regional Councils, and all have given freely of their time and advice We welcome the continuing opportunity to work with Bob Forhan, Chairman of The Regional Municipality of York, Frank Bean, Chairman of The Regional Municipality of Peel and Gary Herrema, Chairman of The Regional Municipality of Durham It is recognized that the working relationships established A-IS - 3 - wi th our regional municipalities are essential for most of the resource management problems in the next 25 years I recognize, at this time, the contributions made by the Councils and staff of our municipalities The Authority looks forward to your continued support Finally, I must recognize the Authority members The Authority has enjoyed outstanding leadership from our four Chairmen Dr Arthur Herbert Richardson, Dr G Ross Lord, Fred A Wade, and Grant Henderson During the last 25 years, many people have served on committees, advisory boards, the Executive and the full Authority All have given generously of their time and energies to the advancement of conservation in our region I wish to acknowledge the contributions of all of these people, and I am sure they recognize that their support of the Authority will be of great value to the present and future generations I woulu alou lik~ to t:.hank t:.he members of our staff who havE', over the years, served us, and operated our many facilities All are dedicated conservationists without whose help we could not. have achieved our successes 1980 was another year of achievement for the Authority, and the following reports of the Advisory Board Chairmen detail our progress in the twelve-month period Mrs Florence Gell Vice-Chairman FLOOD CONTROL AND WATER CONSERVATION ADVISORY BOARD J.S. SCOTT The Flood Control Section of the Water Resource Division operated in A-16 - 4 - 1980 under the second year of the three year Interim Water and Related Land Management Project This project, which was prepared in 1978, provides a total of $11,400,000 for the three year term of the project and enabled the Authority to carry out the Flood Control Plan Review in preparation for the Authority's new Watershed Plan Funding was also provided for flood and erosion control works and the flood plain and headwater lands acquisition program During 1980, 217 61 acres were acquired under 27 separate transactions Land requirements for the Stouffville Channel were finalized and most of the property required for the Oak Ridges Channel was also acquired during 1980 The programs for Flood Control, Erosion and Sediment Control and Storm Water Management were completed in 1980 The draft programs were reviewed in detail by the various municipalities and their comments were used in redrafting these programs and form a part of the Authority's new W~t~~~~CG rlu~ which wa3 ad0pte~ by lh~ r..." ., .. . . . .,. -, ~_! , .. in Dt::\...t::mDE:r - ~ J.U.J....J... .t1.UL..UUJ...LL.y U.l. 1980 The Erosion Control Program of the Authority continued in 1980 under the Interim Water and Related Land Management Project Remedial works were undertaken in The Municipality of Metropolitan Toronto and The Regional Municipalities of Peel, York and Durham A total of 16 major sites were completed 6 of these in Metropolitan Toronto, 3 in Peel, 6 in York and 1 in Durhan The construction of channel improvements in the Town of Whitchurch-Stouffville was completed in 1980 with the official opening being held on October 17, 1980 This channel in conjunction with the Stouffville Dam offers a high level of flood protection to the former Town of Stouffville Maintenance of water control structures continued under the Operations and Maintenance Program during 1980 with the major work being the A-I? - 5 - repairs to the Milne Dam Control Building These repairs have been virtually completed with final restoration to be done in 1981 Improvements were made to the flood warning and flood forecasting system and were effectively employed during flood events The preliminary engineering study for the proposed channel improvements on the East Humber River at Oak Ridges was completed in 1979 It was originally anticipated that construction would commence in 1980, however due to difficulties in obtaining the necessary property, it is now necessary to carry out the entire construction during 1981 Planning and Policy staff reviewed 3034 Committee of Adjustment and Land Division applications, 1296 Ontario Municipal Board applications, 250 Zoning Amendment applications, 686 Draft Plans of Sub-divisions, 242 Official Plan Amendments, 152 Official and Secondary Plans, 242 Title Searches and 62 Niagara Escarpment Commission and Parkway Belt applications In addition, 140 Buildinq Permit applic~tion~ were processed With respect to enforcement of Ontario Regulation 735/73 for Fill, Construction and Alterations to Waterways, 46 Violation Notices were mailed and a majority of these were rectified to the satisfaction of the Authority The remainder are still being dealt with WATERFRONT ADVISORY BOARD M.J. BREEN The waterfront program continued to develop valuable facilities throughout 1980 which are being well used by the public The opening of Humber Bay East brings the total to five new parks opened under the waterfront program Significant progress was also made in other areas including Humber Bay West and Bluffers Park, as well as in the planning of future projects, particularly Colonel Samuel Bois Smith Waterfront A-18 - 6 - Area The parks are now providing opportunities for boating, kite flying, picnicking, fishing, swimming and other open space uses Colonel Samuel Bois Smith Park The master plan for tilis park was subj ected to the first hearing to be held under The Environmental Assessment Act After a lengthy hearing the Board recommended that the project should proceed, thereby giving a strong vote of confidence to the past waterfront accomplishments of the Authority and the very careful monitoring of its work, as well as reinforcing the importance of continued development of the Metropolitan Toronto shoreline for recreational purposes and improvement of the environment for our wildlife Humber Bay West Surface development of the completed landfill was advanced considerably during 1980 with the completion of headland armouring and rough grading of the site The base material for roads and parking lots was placed in preparation for paving in 1981 The site servicing was installed and the two boating clubs took advantage of the opportunity to extend servicing into their sites with plans to provide water and hydro-electric service on the docks in 1981 Humber College continued to operate a successful sailing instruction program at the site with plans to upgrade facilities in 1981 including provision of a classroom The College is developing a program at Humber Bay which can be transferred to the Colonel Samuel Bois Smith site upon completion of that area The main objectives for development in 1981 will be the paving of roads and parking areas and planting of trees and shrubs in preparation for an official opening in 1982 I A-19 - 7 - Humber Bay East The highlight of the year was the official opening of Humber Bay East by the Lieutenant-Governor of Ontario, The Honourable Pauline McGibbon This new park offers recreational opportunities centered on a pond system which is unique along the waterfront As with other waterfront parks developed under the Authority's Waterfront Program, the use of the area will increase rapidly and complement development and any redevelopment in the vicinity Western Beaches A survey of the Authority's property requirements was completed and a request for transfer of lands owned by the City of Toronto and The Municipality of Metropolitan Toronto was filed Bluffers Park Landfilling of an island land base for the Boating Federation proceeded in 1980, with completion expected by February, 1981 The Authority is grateful for the Federal assistance for final armouring of the exterior shoreline, which was completed by the end of October with the successful armouring of Hardpoint #8 Dredging of the northwest corner of the harbour in preparation for dock construction by the Boating Federation in the spring of 1981 began in early November and was completed by mid December Completion of interior shorelines on the northerly and westerly ends of the island was achieved in the same time period The Boating Federation looks forward to adding a maximum of 250 slips in 1981 and the mooring capacity of the island will have been reached Discussions are ongoing with the Federation, its four member clubs, and Metro Parks to finalize the division of the island land base East Point Park The final report and drawings for the site plan preparation for East Point Park have been received from Hough Stansbury Michalski and Associates Limited Discussions are now underway with the Metropolitan A-20 - 8 - Toronto Parks and Works Departments, as well as the Borough of Scarborough, regarding implementation which is expected to begin in 1981 Ajax Waterfront Grading and cultivation of the lands between Harwood Avenue and the filtration plant were undertaken in preparation for seeding in the spring of 1981 Environmental Monitoring This Authority has been monitoring waterfront projects for six years to ensure that its work is environmentally sound The waterfront monitoring program continued in 1980 with diving surveys b~ing completed at Bluffers, Ashbridges and Humber Bay to full document sediment types and to monitor changes in sediment which are expected to occur as the la:1dfillz m~t.urc A program was also desigi1ed Lo cuuLiuue th~ evaluation of fishing potential around the landfill sites in preparation for a more extensive experimental fisheries enhancement program in 1981 The results to date are positive in that the number of species found around landfill sites is higher than in similar open lake areas. Shoreline Management Shoreline erosion control works were continued in the Borough of Scarborough along Crescentwood Road, but the attempts to construct shoreline protection along Kingsbury Crescent were delayed due to difficulties in obtaining title to the shoreline Completion is proposed for 1981, as well as initiating work at other high priority sites in the Borough. Shoreline protection was completed at two Borough of Etobicoke parkettes, Superior Avenue and Norris Cresent The major objectives of the 1980 development program were met, and in addition a considerable amount of final armouring for Humber Bay West, which was proposed for construction in 1981, was advanced to 1980 This will enable the completion of Humber Bay West sooner than anticipated I A-21 - 9 - A most rewarding aspect of the 1980 experience on the waterfront is the continuing strong public support of the facilities that are being created Our accomplishments have been so well received that the waterfront areas are among the most highly used in the Metropolitan Parks system This support indicates the need for continuing waterfront development which can be accomplished by the preparation and approval of a third Five-Year Project to begin in 1982 The major new initiatives of that Project will be the construction of Colonel Samuel Bois Smith Park, East Point Park, Aquatic Park and the Guild Inn Waterfront Area, and the Ajax/Pickering shoreline CONSERVATION LAND MANAGEMENT ADVISORY BOARD E V. KOLB Two major programs, Conservation Land Management and Watershed Recreation are the concern of the Conservation Land Management Advisory Board In 1980 the Board recommended new directions for these programs as a part of the Watershed Plan The Conservation Land Management Program, including the reforestation of large blocks of land, the use of the Authority nursery products for erosion control and wildlife habitat development and the enhancement of the countryside and valley systems has continued to expand as the value of these programs continues to be recognized The development of a new nursery building in combination with the expanded nursery operation, will meet increased demand and provide additional products for the various applications of established programs, including increased activity along the Metropolitan Toronto waterfront, and the erosion control programs throughout the river systems of the Region The special projects undertaken, especially the Strategic Planning for Ontario Fisheries (S P 0 F ) program, funded by the Ministry of Natural Resources, to improve the cold water fisheries habitat within our ri ver A-22 - 10 - systems, has met with a great deal of interest and will continue to be an important program supported by the Ministry of Natural Resources The Thackeray Landfill Rehabilitation Program undertaken in cooperation with and funded by Metropolitan Toronto was continued and will result not only in a better understanding of the requirements of the rehabilitation of sanitary landfill sites but also will provide an aesthetically pleasing landscape upon completion Land management work applied to urban valley systems is a part of the expansion of the program and included plantings which will contribute to the stabilization of the soils, the reduction of the sediment entering the streams by an overland route, and the development of an aesthetically pleasing landscape that will provide wildlife habitat in a corridor system linking the waterfront areas with the upland areas of our Region Wat~rshed R~cre=tio~ Prog~a~ The major development of Conservation Area facilities during 1980, concentrated primarily in the Claireville Conservation Area and the Indian Line Campground The beach facility at Claireville was improved with a variety of plant materials to provide shade, windbreaks and visual enhancement A major erosion area located just south of the beach area was improved and stabilized through the use of gabion structures to prevent further siltation of the reservoir The expansion of the Indian Line Campground continued with the installation of water and electrical services The preliminary development for 1981 identifies a continued funding for this expansion and it is anticipated that at least 25% of the new campground will be available for use this coming season One of the main concerns of the visitors to our Conservation Areas, as identified in the Visitor's Survey undertaken in 1979, was the need for improved washroom facilities Reacting to this, an improved facility . - 11 - A-23 was created in the Bruce's Mill Conservation Area which will provide a heated washroom facility for use year 'round and is located adjacent to the Maple Syrup Pavilion The Maple Syrup Program is a very popular spring activity in the Bruce's Mill Area Funds donated through The Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Foundation enabled the Board to begin the restoration of the Bruce's Mill The funds provided enabled the completion of the perimeter foundation, construction of a shelter over the weigh scale and the completion of the cedar shake roofing on the two mill extensions As additional funds become available, interior work will be undertaken to provide an interpretative program for visitors to the Area and as well using the Mill building for some of the program activities that take place in the Area With the completion of the Watershed Plan, the direction for the planning component of Conservation Areas will be to undertake Master Plans or Master Plan updates of existing Conservation Areas to provide for Provincial nlJpIOVdl of addit.i.onnJ fUl1ning fnr fncilities required by the various locations The initial program will be for the Boyd Conservation Area, including the educational facilities Under the auspices of 0 CAP (Ontario Career Action Program), a student was hired to undertake a survey and investigation of the Conservation Areas and their facilities to evaluate their potential for providing services for disabled persons This program, when complete, will identify changes in the facilities already existing and, as well, provide direction for new facilities which will not prohibit their use by disabled people The Conservation Areas operations reflected our dependence on the weather conditions The Ski Program in 1979 operated fully but was curtailed in 1980 because of the lack of snow The canoeing and windsurfing programs at Claireville Conservation Area, continued to be popular during the summer months The Board recommended a new program A-24 - 12 - for waterskiing at Claireville in cooperation with the Ontario Waterski Association, and an agreement is being drafted for the 1981 season The promotion of our programs and activities was aided through two special events A special day to honour the Ajax 25th Anniversary was held at the Greenwood Conservation Area and a day featuring the Niagara Escarpment was held at the Glen Haffy Conservation Area A number of displays and programs relating to the Authority's work and concerns were provided on these two days and were well received by those who attended A special feature of the Glen Haffy Day was a presentation by Dr Walter Tovell on the geology of the Glen Haffy Area Ongoing events such as the Claireville Open House to promote the Canoe Program and the Bruce's Mill Open House to promote the Ski Programs were well attended and all of these special features provide an opportunity for radio, newspaper and television promotion of our facilities The Authority has vast land resources on wnicn watershed recreation opportunities can be provided A special Executive Sub-Committee studied "marketing" requirements to ensure tha t the community is aware of the opportunities at its doorstep, and the development of a marketing plan was approved for 1981 The Watershed Recreation Program provides an understanding of resources and their management thlough recreation Substantial visitation levels, increased revenues, and strong municipal and provincial funding support are required to continue this program HISTORICAL SITES ADVISORY BOARD M.W.H. BIGGAR "During 1980, the Historical Sites Advisory Board made considerable progress toward implementing several planning activities important to - 13 - A-25 the future of Black Creek Pioneer Village These activities include finances, marketing and operations Finances have a major impact on an operational facility and Black Creek Pioneer Village is no exception As one of the Authority's principal operations, it is noteworthy that its revenues total approximately 85% of its expenditures Initiatives have been undertaken to uring revenues and expenditures more in line Additionally, government support through a museum grant from the Ministry of Culture and Recreation has again this year been made available Further, efforts are being undertaken and financial support is being sought by appealing directly to volunteer organizations in our communit.y During 1980 Black Creek has received support from the Ministry of Correctional Services through its volunteer workers program Recent initiatives have resulted in fund ing from various private organizations such as the C W Jeffreys Chapter of the I ODE , the Junior League of Toronto, the Southern Ontario Unit of the Herb Society of Ontario, and the Dunnington Grubb Foundation It is appropriate that future efforts expand on these initiatives On the expenditure side, the situation in 1980 has been difficult and has warranted some strong measures First, a number of buildings which have been acquired and are being restored will be closed to the public in 1981, unless special funding provisions are forthcoming Second, the monthly expenditure pattern has been under close scrutiny, and where possible budgets have been, and will be reviewed for special constraint measures Notwithstanding this regimen, it is our objective to manage Black Creek Pioneer Village so that it continues to be recognized as a respected institution within the museum field It is important for attendance, and for future revenues, that the Village obtain selected collections such as the Hi Ida Hu 11 collection, supported by Wintario and the Ministry of Culture and Recreation Perhaps more important, however, is the esteem with which both the Village and its staff are held in the museum field It is noteworthy that Russell Cooper, Administrator of the Historical Sites Division, won the Award of Merit from the Canadian A-26 - 14 - Museum Association for his "exemplary professional work in developing Black Creek Pioneer Village " Appropriate marketing initiatives which focus on clients who are perhaps new to the Authority's many facilities must be developed over the next several years One example of an innQvative technique employed at Black Creek Pioneer Village was the participation in the "Fun Trek" campaign run by Dominion Stores, whereby Dominion Stores advertised widely facilities such as Black Creek and purchasers of a book of coupons for admission did so on a discount basis Approximately 3,900 visitors to Black Creek utilized these coupons Winter activities last year were severely curtailed by unseasonably mild weather, and poor attendance was experienced for the first three months of 1980 A new spring program "Maple Sugar Time" provided the necessary initiatives to spur attendance figures which remained well ahead of last year until the fall Unfortunately, the fall Festival experienced poor weather conditions, which affected tittandanc~ However, tU1.dl attendance for 1980 was virtually the same as last year Revenues from admissions, sales and other sources were up appreciably during the year Consistent with the Province's plan to support the tourist industry immediately to the north of Metro is the Authority's plan to construct a Visitors Centre at Black Creek Pioneer Village As a condition precedent to submitting an application for funding to Wintario, it is essential to complete a formal feasibility study Preparations for this study are well in hand and it is hoped that the study will be completed and the application made in the early spring In the meantime the Visitors Centre plan for development continues to be of prime and vital importance to the future of the Village In the area of operations, several important events occurred Mr John Downing completed his two year term as Honourary Reeve at the Village, and his contribution has been very much appreciated It is hoped that he will continue his very important involvement and interest A-27 - 15 - I Bishop Allan A Read, who in the past has shown a keen interest in Black Creek with the annual Rogationtide Service and lhe annual Outdoor H~nn Sing, is the new Honourary Reeve 'l'he Author i ty and the Vill<lge are very fortunate to be able to attract dedicated and talented individuals such as Mr Downing and Bishop Read Further, the Historical Sites Advisory Board has undertaken several studies of its own during the past year One deals with a contingency plan for the eventual development of the area northwest of Jane Street and Steeles Avenue which, in turn, would have a major impact on the existing Village Another deals with food services offered at the Village and provides a framework for fu rther review A third study is in the development stage and will focus on revenues such as those derived from the Village's gift shop These studies are being carried out with the cooperation of the staff and are expected to promote economy, efficiency and effectiveness in the Village At this time I would like to exlellu U"'y appreciation Lo t.he ITlembers of the Historical Sites Advisory Board whose expertise and unstinting efforts have made 1980 a successful and productive year INFORMATION AND EDUCATION ADVISORY BOARD DR. T.H. LEITH 1980 has been the busiest and most productive year in Information and Education since the establishment of the Authority The usual mu1~iplicity of communication techniques have been successful in communicating to the residents of our watersheds the varied Authority programs Included in the information program was the printing and distribution of half a million pieces of literature, the continuous flow of news and photo releases to the media, and 200 one-minute fi 1m cl ips of Authority and Foundation activities were distributed to T V stations () A-28 - 16 - for use in their public service programming The Authority is deeply indebted to all media for its generous support Some of the special events included The Arbor Day 1980 Honour Roll Award Presentations, the Garden Party, the Authority's Watershed Tour and BDO, the participation in the 25th Anniversary Celebrations of the To\.m of Ajax and the Official Opening of - Humoer Bay East 'Naterfront Area, by The Honourable Pauline McGibbon, Lieutenant-Governor of Ontario; - Lake St George Conservation Field Centre, by The Honourable James Auld, Minister of Natural Resources; - Whitchurch-Stouffville Flood Control Channel, by Mayor Eldred King To maintain and attract new visitors to'the Conservation Areas, Black "_"'.....,,. 1"'1.:...................._ "Y':,,___ __..:I J..'-_ 'fr__..L....!_"-.L..

STEPHENSON During 1980, the Foundation surpassed the $3,000,000 plateau for funds raised since its inception in 1961 This achievement largely reflects the voluntary and dedicated efforts of Mr Elgin H Card, who took over the Chairmanship and main fund raising responsibility in 1967 The Members of the Foundation extend to him their sincere and grateful appreciation for his contribution and leadership In October, Mr Card retired from the Chairmanship but continues to serve as a Director and Member of the Executive Committee Mr William H Stephenson was elected to succeed Mr Card as Chairman Earlier in the year at the Annual Meeting Mr Maurice Morrison was ~l~~t~n PreRident succeedinq Mr David Melnik, Q C , and Mr Wayne L Naughty, C A , WctS ~l~~L~d Vicc-?~csid~nt In its fund raising, the Foundation gratefully acknowledges the generous donations by business, industry, group organizations, estates, foundations, and individuals Also, the important financial and technical support given by departments of the Government of Canada, the Province of Ontario and municipal bodies for various projects and programs The larger part of the $222,365 raised through the Foundation during 1980 was directed toward the Kortright Centre for Conservation to provide additional exhibits and displays We have been successful in obtaining the financial backing of a number of leading industries for the cost of producing specific units at the Centre and we can look forward to future similar support Other funds were raised for restorations of several buildings in Black Creek Pioneer Village and the flour and feed mill in the Bruce's Mill Conservation Area There were also contributions to endowment funds operated for Black Creek Pioneer Village and the Kortright Centre for Conservation as well as the B Harper Bull Conservation Fellowship Awards Fund, which we are anxious to build up to increase the number of annual scholarships - 19 - A-31 Because of new limitations on the amount of support which can be obtained from Wintario for capital projects, there will be a heavier demand for donations from the public sector and the Foundation '.Ii 11 need to intensify its activities during 1981, particularly for completing the exhibits and restorations programs presently underway Donations of up to $10,000 toward the B Harper Bull Scholarships would also be a desirable achievement Competition for public funds is becoming extremely intensive and more professional However, there is high and growing interest in the Authority's heritage and conservation projects and we are confident that we can continue to attract strong support Individual members of the Foundation propose to undertake more active personal fund raising roles in 1981 and the financial support of all Authority members is again solicited THE ~~~TE~SHED PL~~ Reference has been made throughout this report to the Authority's Watershed Plan Planning has always been an important part of the Authority's approach to resource management Through its process the Authority has been able to bring together the goals of its member municipalities and the Province of Ontario and devise projects which contribute t~ the achievement of these goals in accordance with the principles of conservation management A major planning step was taken in 1980 with the adoption of the Authority's Watershed Plan encompassing all the resource management interests of the Authority This Plan is comprised of ten separate but interrelated programs and sets out goals, objectives and policies to guide the work of the Authority over the next ten to twenty years The Plan, however, is not intended to be a static document but will be reviewed and revised to reflect both the evolving resource management needs of the community and advances in resource management technology It will continue to be refined through discussions with the Authority's I A-32 - 20 - member municipalities and all other agencies having responsibilities related to resource management The adoption of the Watershed Plan by the Authority took place at a special meeting December 5th, 1980 Prior to that, the Plan had been circulated to all member and local municipalities for discussion and comment Presentations were made by Authority members and staff to municipal councils and to the Provincial Cabinet Committee on Resources Development Extensive revisions were made in the Plan to best address the concerns of these groups With the Watershed Plan as the background policy framework, the Authority will now develop and adopt the necessary projects to implement its program objectives The projects will define the priorities of the community for the immediate future and will require input, review and approval from the member municipalities and ~le Province The Plan is the first step toward the achievement of the comprehensive resource management goals of the Authority during the 1980' s The work of the Authority as charted in the Watershed Plan will continue to give emphasis to addressing flood and erosion problems on the Authority's watersheds Remedial works, regulations and land acquisition will be employed as the primary techniques in this work Communication ties with municipalities and the Province of Ontario will be strengthened The conservation management of Authority lands will emphasize the quality of the resource base and continuing opportunities for education and recreation experience Over the past twenty five years the positive impact of Authority work in the communities it serves has been enormous The continuance of the work will, as in the past, be dependent upon community support and understanding, reflected in a growing confidence among the partners in the conservation enterprise, the Authority, the municipalities, and the Province of Ontario, in each other's ability to contribute to the work within their mandates A-33 SCHEDULE liB If THE METROPOLITAN TORONTO AND REGION CONSERVATION AUTHORITY MEMBERS -

The Authority has identified the region's river valleys, the Lake Ontario shoreline and the headwater areas of the Oak Ridges interlobate moraine, and the Niagara Escarpment as the major resources to which its programs are applied. Each Conservation Authority in Ontario has been directed by the Province of Ontario to:- "Study and investigate the watershed and prepare and file with its member municipalities and the Minister of Natural Resources, a Watershed Plan " See report of the Working Group on the Mandate and Role of the Conservation Authorities of Ontario (1979) The Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Authority adopted a Watershed Plan on December 5, 1980 The Plan will be filed with its member municipalities and the Minister of Natural Resources. The Watershed Plan is comprised of ten (10) interrelated programs:- Flood Control Program Provision for protection of human life and property from the hazards of flooding and erosion is a basic requirement and the core of the Watershed Plan and the Flood Control Program. This program provides for remedial measures, land acquisition and application of regulatory measures to leave flood plains unobstructed to pass flood flows. Three programs complementary to the Flood Control Program recognize the relationships between urban drainage, erosion and sedimentation, and floOding. Erosion and Sediment Control Program The Erosion and Sediment Control Program is aimed at protecting life and property through corrective works as well as preventing future hazards through development control Storm tvater Mana~ement Program The Storm Water Management Program details cooperative action between the Authority and its member munic~palities on water management problems and preparation of master drainage plans. Conservation Land Management Program The Conservation Land Management Program promotes conservation on private and public lands by providing for reforestatation, habitat improvements, stream improvements and a conservation land planning service Shoreline Management Program The Shoreline Management Program aims at reducing erosion and flooding hazards along the Lake Ontario Shoreline through application of protective works, acquisition and planning and regulatory controls. Page I-2 Land Acquisition Program To ensure proper conservation land management, the Land Acquisition Program provides for acquisit~on of flood plan and valley lands, waterfront lands and environmentally signifcant lands The Authority has acquired 26,600 acres of land that are being managed to achieve the objectives set forth in the Watershed Plan Watershed Recreation Program AND Lake Ontario Waterfront Development Program: A valuable ancillary use of conservation lands is the development of recreation areas for public use and enjoyment The Watershed Recreation Program and the Lake Ontario Waterfront Program are designed to meet this need. Heritage Conservation Program The Heritage Conservation Program recognizes the special contribution that a historical perspective gives to the understanding of resource management Community Relations Program: All of the efforts of the Authority in its conservation programs are dependent upon community understanding and acceptance. The Community Relations Program establishes the means by which the Authority can communicate with the community The 1981 Bud~et Estimates have been prepared on the basis of programs included in the Watershed Plan, and comparison with previous activities is difficult Based on previous budget systems since 1~57, 62 5% of the Authority's capital and development budget has been devoted to Water and Related Land Management, 24.5% has been devoted to the Lake Ontario Waterfront, 10 8% to Conservation and Recreation Land Management, and 2.2% to Outdoor and Conservation Education The 1981 Budget Estimates provide for the completion of the Interim Water and Related Land Management Project 1979 to 1981, the Waterfront Project 1977 to 1981, and the Supplementary Waterfront Project 1980/81. FORMAT OF PRESENTATION The 1981 Budget Estimates are based on a new format. The format is designed to more clearly identify the ten programs adopted by the Authority in its Watershed Plan. In addition, the budget estimates are organized into management units to more clearly identify and manage the Authority programs. The principles of program budget management have been used to develop the 1981 Budget Estimates There are five major types Of Provincial grants available through the Ministry of Natural Resouces to Conservation Authorities:- 1) Administration 4) Special Projects and Programs 2) Water & Related Land Management 5) Supplementary Grants (not applicable to M.T.R.C.A.) 3) Conservation & Recreation Land Management PAGE I-3 AUTHORITY PROGRAMS (1) Finance and Administration a) Program Administration b) General Expense c) Property Acquisition and Maintenance & Management (2) Water and Related Land Management - Flood Control a) Program Administration b) Erosion and Sediment Control - Metropolitan Toronto - Peel, York, Durham c) Flood Control - Planning and Remedial Measures - _ River forecasting operations, Maintenance Water Control Structures - Maintenance, Small Darns, Channels, Erosion Controi Sites (3) Water and Related Land Management - Waterfront a) Program Administration b) Capital Development c) Lake Ontario Waterfront - Shoreline Management, Remedial Works, Capital - Shoreline Management, Maintenance (4) Conservation Land Management a) Program Administration b) Watershed Recreation - Planning - Conservation Area Development - Operations and Maintenance c) Conservation Land Management - Planning - Conservation Management - Conservation Management (Fish Rearing) - Operations and Maintenance (5) Information and Education a) Program Administration b) Community Relations - Information - General - Resource Management - Planning, Market Analysis _ Conservation Education - Supervision, Operations, Maintenance - Supervision, Operations, Maintenance (Kortright) c) Conservation Education Development PAGE 1-4 (6) Historic Sites a) Program Administration b) Operations & Maintenance c) Capital Development Expenditures on administration, operations and maintenance and current programs comprise the Authority's General Levy on all participati~g municipalities apportioned on the basis of equalized assessment as supplied by the Province of Ontario Expenditures on capital programs are financed as a Capital Levy on municipalities based on levies designated in specific projects I~TERHl \'lATER AND RELATED LAND MANAGEMENT PROJECT 1979-1981 ~he year 19~1 is the final year of the three-year Interim Water and Related Land Management Project This project enables the Authority to establish and undertake a program designed to conserve, restore, develop and manage the natural resources of the watershed within the area of its jurisdiction The project will be finalized in 1981 to the extent of available Provincial cash flow and authorized municipal levy as approved by the Ontario Municipal Board. \1ATERFRONT PROJECT 1977-1981 The year 1981 is the final year of the second phase of the Waterfront Project 1977-1981 The total approved expenditures and authorized municipal levy, as approved by the Ontario Municipal Board for the project, is $22,000,000 In 1980 the Province of Ontario and The Municipality of Metropolitan Toronto approved the supplementary Waterfront Project 1980-1981, and additional funding in the amount of $1,984,000 The two projects will be finalized in 1981 to the extent of available provincial cash flow and authorized municipal levy as approved by the Ontario Municipal Board \'lATERSHED PLAN In 1981 the Authority will adopt projects to implement the programs in the approved Watershed Plan, and will request approval of the projects from its member municipalities and the Province of Ontario The funding for these projects will commence in 1982 PAGE 1-5 THE 1981 LEVY The apportionment of the 1981 municipal levies is based on the 1979 equalized assessment figures for 1980 taxation purposes as supplied by the Province of Ontario In accordance with the policy adopted by the Authority, the Regional Municipalities of Durham, Peel and York will be levied an amount equal to 100% of the 1980 taxes paid by the Authority for revenue producing conservation areas within those munici- pali ties Within Metropolitan Toronto, Authority lands are not subject to taxation PROVINCIAL FUNDING The provincial grant structure used in these estimates is based on the following approved percentages - Administration 50% Water and Related Land Management 55% Conservation and Recreation Land Management 50% Waterfront Plan 50% The Authority has received approval for the following level of funding from the Province of Ontario to finance the programs set forth in the 1981 Budget Estimates.

Reynolds presented a brief progress report, stating that this Twenty-Fifth Anniversary year is an important time for the Authority, few other authorities equaling its record of age, and none its accomplishments. The recent death of former Mayor of Toronto William Dennison was noted with regret. Mr. Dennison was formerly an active member of the Don Valley and The Metropolitan Toronto & Region Conservation Authorities who carried support of conservation into his other activities A further loss has been sustained in the death of Mrs. Francis Kortright. Frank Kortright played an outstanding part in various aspects of conservation. His memory is perpetuated by the Kortright Centre for Conservation, in which Mrs. Kortright took a deep interest. Her passing marks the end of an important era for the conservation movement. Mike Garrett has become a member of the "Sons of Martha", an award of high merit made to very few of its members by the Association of Professional Engineers of Ontario. Dr. Reynolds reminded the members of two forthcoming events: The Honour Roll Awards Programme (formerly known as Arbor Day) will be held on Friday, May 22 at the Authority Office, commencing at 2:00 p.m The next meeting of the full Authority is scheduled for Friday, June 19, at the Community Hall, Woodbridge, in association with the dedication of the R. GRANT HENDERSON FLOODWAY **** Mr. G.B. Sinclair expressed his conviction that a very strong budget presentation could be addressed to the Executive Committee of the Metropolitan Toronto Council.
