Attention: Mr, Tom Barber
Dear Mr. Barber:
RE: Wild Water Kingdom Ltd.
Improvements to Facilities
Further to our recent discussions, this will outline our proposal
with respect to improvements we would like to make to the Park
facilities this year and in the future as we contiue to work
towards our goal of making Wild Water Kingdom a {irst class
attraction. As mentioned, there are certain additions that would
be permanent improvements to the land such as the paving of the
parking lot and installation of permanent washrooms in the picnic
area, etc. These would be beneficial to the Authority as land
owners but would not directly produce any additional revenue to us.
We propose that the work be done and funded by Wild Water Kingdom,
on the following basis. We will guarantee that the percentage rent
payable to the Authority for the 1992 year will be at least the
amount paid to you in 1991. Any excess of the guaranteed
percentage rent otherwise payable will be split 50:50 between the
MTRCA and Wild Water Kingdom, and our portion would -:.hcn be
cr-edited towards the cost of these improvements in 1992. Sho~~d
the cost of the improvements not be fully reimbursed this year, we
propose that the Authority apply this shortfall towards the 19~3
percentage rent payable.
CR3. /elL
Mr. Tom Barber
May 8, 1992

We trust you will find our proposal fair and equitable and look
forward to hearing from you.
As always, we appreciate your consideration and cooperation with us
in this venture.
Yours very truly,
WILD WATER KINGDOM

MTRCA STAFF REVIEW GUIDELINES
USE OF AUTHORITY OWNED LANDS FOR
STORMWATER MANAGEMENT FACILITIES
INTRODUCTION
The control of stormwater runoff has long been recognized as a necessary part of
urban development. As such, the Authority's 1980 Watershed Plan set out a
program for the management of stormwater in order to meet watershed
management objectives, The Authority recognizes that, in certain instances,
stormwater management facilities may be considered a permissable use on
Authority owned lands, provided that the proposal complements other Authority
objectives and achieves a greater conservation benefit. The following Review
Guidelines set out a decision making framework based on specified performance
standards.
These Review Guidelines were prepared for use by Authority staff. It should be
noted that approvals obtained by following this process do not preclude the
requirement to obtain approvals from other regulatory agencies.
Puroose
In order to assess whether a stormwater management (SWM) facility is reasonable
in the proposed location, the MTRCA Staff Review Guidelines - Use of Authority
Owned lands for Stormwater Management Facilities have been prepared. These
Review Guidelines set out criteria to enable a careful evaluation and to ensure that
the proposal complies with the broad range of Authority program goals and
objectives.
The Review Guidelines are organized into three Phases:
Phase I: Conceptual Level
Phase II: Preliminary Design
Phase III: Detailed Design, Maintenance and Monitoring
Each Phase involves a series of iterative steps requiring action by either the
proponent or Authority staff. The eyaluation of any proposal to locate SWM
facilities on Authority owned lands will be phased in accordance with the level of
detail and decision making outlined within.
2
CR. cSt! /r1:L
PHASE I: CONCEPTUAL LEVEL
The purpose of Phase I is to determine if the proposed storm water management
(SWM) facility and its proposed location on Authority land is reasonable, based on
a review of fundamental Authority water and related land management objectives.
Stormwater management facilities will only be considered in those locations where
site characteristics are deemed to be appropriate and where the proposal will not
compromise the Authority's objectives (e.g. flood risk management, public use), as
set out in Step 2.
Steo 1: Information Reauired from Prooonent
The proponent must submit a written request identifying interest in using Authority
lands for stormwater management purposes. The request should generally indicate
and briefly describe the purpose of the proposed SWM facility, the rationale and
justification for location.
A locational map must be provided and shall illustrate:
. major road intersections
. existing contours
. valley/floodplain lands
. watercourses
. property limits
. existing vegetative cover (presence/absence)
. lands to be serviced by the proposal
. sub watershed boundaries associated with:
a) the existing drainage areas; and
b) the proposed SWM facility location
. existing and proposed land use designation and zoning within identified
subwatersheds

CR :w-fq 2-
Steo 2: MTRCA Staff Conceotual Review
** Requests for SWM facilities on Authority owned land will be
considered and coordinated for internal review by the Plan
Review Section.
Evaluation of the purpose, rationale and justification of the proposal shall be based
on its general compliance with Authority SWM policies, criteria and implementation
procedures.
Where the proposed stormwater management facilities do not conflict with any of
the following Authority objectives, the proposal would be suitable for further
consideration as outlined within Phases /I and 1/1.
. If the proposed SWM facility is located within the valley and stream corridor,
then the proposal must comply with the Valley and Stream Corridor
Management Program.
. The proposal shall be compatible with other uses which may have been
established or are being negotiated through existing/proposed Management
Agreements, easements, etc..
. The proposal shall not be considered if the Authority lands are the subject of
negotiation for sale, until such time as the negotiations are complete.
. The proposed location shall not conflict or interfere with current or planned
public use of Authority lands (i.e. recreation, education, trails, etc.)
. The proposed location shall not adversely affect any known archaeological,
heritage, architectural, or other cultural resources.
. If the proposed SWM facility is located outside the valley and stream
corridor, then the proposal must comply with the following objective:
. The proposed location shall not adversely affect valued resource
features such as a Significant Area (as defined in the Valley and
Stream Corridor Management Program), and/or a forested
area/woodlot, and/or wetland, and/or other natural heritage resources.
