SUMMARY REPORT
Introduction

1.0
INTRODUCTION
In November, 2014 the Independent Electricity System Operator (IESO) released a Request for
Proposal for up to 300 MW of wind energy, as the first phase of its Large Renewable Procurement
(LRP) process. LRP responses are due September 1, 2015 and the IESO expects to award
contracts by the end of this year. The IESO undertook a Request for Qualification process (RFQ)
in 2014 to qualify eligible proponents (Applicants) to respond to the LRP. Capstone Infrastructure
Corporation (CIC) was one of the successful Applicants qualified to move forward into the LRP
stage. Capstone Power Development (Capstone), a subsidiary of CIC is managing the
development of the proposed Erie Shores Wind Farm 2 (the Project) through an affiliate, Erie
Shores Wind Farm II Limited Partnership (the Proponent).
A Public Community Meeting is required under Section 3.2.5 (c) of the LRP Rules, and a Public
Community Meeting Summary Report must be provided to the Clerks of the Project
Communities, and made public on the Project website. This Summary of the Public Community
Meetings held on August 25, 2015 (concurrently) is part of Capstone’s commitment to inform
and consult with local communities and stakeholders regarding the proposed Project. The Public
Community Meetings were organized by Capstone to present an overview of the LRP process
and to gather input and comments on the proposed Project. This Report presents a summary of
the consultation activities and feedback associated with these Public Community Meetings.

SUMMARY REPORT
Conclusion
August 27, 2015
3.0
CONCLUSION
Overall, there was a positive interest in the Project at both public meetings, and reaffirmation of
support for the successful integration of the first phase of the Erie Shore Wind Farm which is
currently operating in the Township of Malahide and Municipality of Bayham. A number of
attendees expressed interest in possibly hosting a turbine or other project-related infrastructure
on their properties.
Based on oral and written comments and questions received, concerns were raised with respect
to:
•
Impacts to wildlife;
•
Impacts to wetlands and water resources;
•
Impacts to woodlands (tree removal);
•
Noise regulations, EMF from turbines, underground and overhead lines;
•
Visual impacts from transmission lines (preference of underground lines);
•
Setbacks from residences and natural features; and,
•
Property values.
Capstone will continue to work with the municipalities and local residents to ensure these
concerns are considered in future planning and assessment of the Project, should a contract be
awarded under the LRP.

FRIDAY, AUGUST 7, 2015 n ST. THOMAS TIMESJOURNAL
Mother decides to withdraw from son and family
Dear Amy: My son — who
lives in the same town as I —
is married to a very bright,
strong, controlling young
woman with a child from a
previous marriage.
I treat the child as I do all
my grandchildren, as if she
has always been ours (as does
my son).
Holidays are always
spent with her family (I am
divorced) and although they
invite me to go with them, I
am not really “included” if
AMY
DICKINSON
ASK AMY
I go, so I now choose not to
attend.
I spend most holidays with
friends. There are no alternating holidays between her
mom and me. My son allows
this, so that tells me it’s just
fine with him.
There are pictures of her
family, their friends and his
father (and his wife) all over
their house, but not one
single family picture of all of
us.
They roll out the red carpet
for “dad” when he comes to
town, but they never come to
see me
— just down the road. They
rarely invite me to their place
unless they want me to do
something for them.
I stay out of their business,
offer help when needed, send
cooked meals because they
all work (as do I), make few
demands and ask for little.
I am not going to sever
the relationship, but all signs
tell me it is a poor emotional
investment for me and I
should work on emotionally
withdrawing from it. What do
you think? — SAD TO SAY
Dear Sad: You don’t need
to work on emotionally with-
drawing — because it seems
you’ve already pre-emptively
done this.
You present a narrative of
being ignored or overlooked
by your son and his wife,
but you don’t mention any
efforts you might be making
to include them. Emotional
investment and involvement
runs both ways.
Your daughter-in-law’s
family has invited you to
spend holidays with them,
but you say you didn’t feel
included. Do you invite them
(and your son’s family) to
your home? Do you spend
any one-on-one time with
your grandchild?
This situation is challenging. You might need to
work a little harder and be
more assertive to get a little
more of what you want —
for instance, give your son
and wife a framed photo of
all of you. You should also
determine not to be quite so
sensitive.

LIFE
n ADVICE
New mother deals with disconnected granny
Dear Amy: When I got
married almost three years
ago, my parents were less
than supportive. Basically,
they do not approve of my
husband, and (despite his
efforts to provide for our
family) they probably never
will.
I became pregnant with my
parents’ first grandchild. I was
excited and told my mother
right away. Her reaction was
to say, “Well, I really hope you
aren’t.” That shocked me to
my core. I eventually let go of
that hurt.
When my son was born,
my mother didn’t come to
visit until my son was almost
2 weeks old, and she only
stayed for two days.
I try not to judge my ownmother against my motherin-law, but my mother-in-law
has been an absolute angel.
AMY
DICKINSON
ASK AMY
I feel fully supported and
appreciate her hands-on
help.
I recently found out that
we’re expecting our second
child.
I told my mother right
away, hoping that with almost
three years of marriage under
my belt she might be at least
a little joyful, but again, no
excitement, no smile or hug
or any other sort of positive
reaction. Am I hoping for too
much from her? How should
I address my needs, or should
I just let it go? If it weren’t for
my mother-in-law, I’d be at a
total loss for any parental support in my life. — HOPEFUL
IN THE MIDWEST
Dear Hopeful: At this point
you should assume that your
mother’s reaction has everything to do with her, and very
little to do with you.
You might gain some
insight by communicating —
not about your goals and your
disappointment in her, but
about her own life. She may
have been ambivalent about
her own abilities as a mother.
Start by saying, “Mom, your
reaction to my pregnancies
has been less than enthusiastic. Are you worried
about me as a mother? Are
you worried about you as a
grandmother?”
The more you understand
about her, the less surprised
you will be by her reactions.
Ultimately you will have to
accept your mother’s deficits
and raise your children joyfully with people who are
open and loving toward them.
Unfortunately your mother
might not ever get there, and,
yes, then it will be time to let
it go.
Dear Amy: I read the letter
from “Stuck,” about his wife,
who picked on him and their
kids, blew the criticism out of
proportion and belittled and
verbally abused them. That
was my mother. A small thing
would set her off, and then
it would turn into hours of
tirade. When I tried to go into
my room to do homework
or get a moment’s piece, she
followed me and called me a
coward.
My mother was bipolar and
this behavior was how her
mental illness manifested, so
n FOOD
NEW YORK — Cooking
for family is fun for actress
Valerie Bertinelli. Cooking
for Betty White was intimidating.
For the debut of Valerie’s
Ho m e C o o k i n g , h e r n e w
Food Network show premiering Saturday (12 pm
ET), Bertinelli invited costars White, Jane L eeves
and Wendie Malick from the
now-defunct T V Land sitcom Hot in Cleveland for a
meal.
“It was a little nerve-racking because Betty doesn’t
like too many things,” Bertinelli said of her 93-year-old
colleague. “She likes tuna
fish, she likes hot dogs, she
likes Red Vines (candy) and
vodka. So what am I going to
make for Betty?”
Vodka sounds like a nice
start. Bertinelli settled on
a tuna salad with an Italian
twist.
Growing up in an Italian
family, it was “food, God
and garlic in our house,” she
said. The 55-year-old Bertinelli has fond memories of
learning to make pasta from
scratch as a young girl, and
has long enjoyed cooking
as a way to bring family and
friends together.
She’s hoping the 10-episode Valerie’s Home Cooking is enough of a success
to merit a second season so
she can go back to a culinary
“boot camp,” full days of trying out recipes with no worries about cleaning up.
Bertinelli sipped a green
drink during an interview
backstage at the Today show
this week. She’s on a sugar
detox after co-hosting the
Kids Baking Championship
for the Food Network, where
some sampling was in order.
“When the Food Network
came on, I had it on all the
time in my house,” she said.
“Some people had CNN on, I
had the Food Network going
on all the time. To be on it
now is really surreal.”
The former teen sitcom
star of One Day at a Time
you raise so well) is that
parents must protect their
children. I hope the man who
described himself as “Stuck”
in a family with a verbally
abusive spouse is inspired to
act on behalf of himself and

Dear Amy: You were way
too harsh on “Just a Girl
Doing Her Job,” who didn’t
want to talk to co-workers
outside of the office. She
sounds like an introvert to
me, and it can be very depleting to interact with people if
you are introverted. — MORE
UNDERSTANDING
Dear Understanding: “Just
a Girl ...” didn’t describe feeling uncomfortable interacting
with co-workers, but she did
express with frankness that
she simply isn’t interested in
them.

sitting down calmly and reasoning did no good. She was
unwilling to get help, until
legal action was threatened
by her landlord, whom she
verbally threatened.
It took until her 70s to get
help and now, in her 80s and
with proper medication, she
is able to have relationships
she couldn’t have before.
If the mom won’t get help,
the husband and kids should
leave. I wish that every time
my father threatened to take
us and leave, he had followed
through.

Dear Been There: This is a
devastating account of what

jobs again following the cancellation of Hot in Cleveland after six seasons. She
and her co-stars loved the
ro l e s b e c a u s e t h e y p ro vided meaningful jobs in an
industry where middle-aged
and older actresses are not
exactly a hot commodity.
“Then they cancelled us
because they wanted to put
on younger shows,” she said.
She’s particularly proud
of Wolfgang, her 24-yearold son with rocker Eddie
Van Halen. He’s playing in
his dad’s band, and now that
he’s gotten older, Bertinelli
is over the concerns she had
about him going out on the
road as a teenager.
She rode in the tour bus
recently with Wolfgang to a
show, and for the first time
he played and sang for her
some of the songs he had
written. Mom was a puddle.
“I said, ‘Thanks a lot for
that, Wolfie!’” she said. “‘Now
I have to put on a whole new
face of makeup.’ I was sobbing.”
