(UEM) has completed the Growth Management Strategy and Municipal Master Plan for the City of Kawartha Lakes (‘the City’). The purpose of the project was to address the long-term growth objectives in conformance with the Province of Ontario’s Places to Grow legislation. The project involved the completion of 4 major components: a Growth Management Strategy, a Municipal Servicing Assessment, a Transportation Master Plan and a Solid Waste Management Master Plan Update. Although the Municipal Engineers Association (MEA) Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (Class EA) process applies only to municipal infrastructure projects including roads, water and wastewater projects; the Municipal Servicing Assessment, the Transportation Master Plan and the Solid Waste Management Master Plan Update were completed as ‘Master Plans’ in accordance with the MEA Class EA process supported by the results of the Growth Management Strategy. Public and agency consultation is a key feature of the Municipal Class EA process. Through an effective public consultation program the proponent can generate meaningful dialogue between project planners and stakeholders (including Government Agencies and the public), allowing an exchange of ideas and the broadening of the information base, leading to better decision making. One of the principal aims of public consultation therefore is to understand and achieve resolution of differences of points of view, thus reducing or avoiding controversy. This Growth Management Strategy and Municipal Master Plan Project was undertaken to meet and exceed the consultation requirements of the Municipal Class EA process. Given that the project resulted in major recommendations regarding the long-term growth of the City, most aspects of the project utilized a more comprehensive public and stakeholder consultation approach than required under the Municipal Class EA process. Consultation activities undertaken included: • • • Consultation with key stakeholders including the Steering Committee, City Councilors and Senior Municipal Staff. Holding a series of public information centre’s (PIC’s)/public meetings at various milestone points during the study. The PIC’s/public meetings were held at multiple locations throughout the City to provide an opportunity for, and encourage participation from all residents of the City. Holding a workshop with representatives of the Development Community in the City of Kawartha Lakes • Placing relevant information on the City’s website for public and stakeholder review. • Preparing summary information for distribution at PIC’s/public meetings. • Publishing a Notice of Study Completion and making the Project Report available to the Page 3 Consultation Report Municipal Master Plan Project City of Kawartha Lakes February 2012 public and stakeholder for a minimum 30-day review period. • Holding one-on-one meetings with members of the public and/or other stakeholders, as required, to address specific issues. 1.1 Communication Strategy At the onset of the project, a Community Stakeholder Consultation & Communication Strategy was developed to establish a process to engage the community in the information sharing and decisionmaking process. Input received was utilized to make informed decisions during the study process. Engaging the community included informing, consulting with, involving, collaborating with and empowering individual stakeholders and members of the public. Different issues impacting the City, as well as individual growth areas, required varying levels of consultation. However, all levels of consultation and consultation activities were considered equally important. Consultation activities undertaken and associated communications ensured collaboration with the residents of the City, resulting in a process that allowed Council to work with the community to find solutions to issues and problems. The consultation activities undertaken will result in development that takes into consideration all information provided not only by Staff and the Consultant Team but as well as local residents and other stakeholders. By engaging the community, Council received diverse perspectives and solutions that added to the development of the Growth Management Strategy and Municipal Master Plan project while ensuring that the process leading up to the completion of the project was transparent, accountable and had input from the community. The objective of the Communication Strategy was to achieve a balance between the need to consider community input, reach timely decisions, provide information, maintain financial viability, and in certain situations, maintain confidentiality. The Communications Strategy supported transparency and a decision-making processes which was accountable to all stakeholders. Appendix A1 outlines the purpose, key tasks and strategy to achieve the objectives of the Community Stakeholder Consultation and Communication Strategy. This strategy included a number of mechanisms to seek the views of the community. It was the intent of the Consulting Team to ensure that consultation activities would identify the target audience, be creative by using different methods of consultation and establish a process of dialogue that leads to decisions that result in the evolution of the City of Kawartha Lakes in a fashion that reflects the values of the community. Appendix A2 is the Community Stakeholder Contact List. This document includes members of City Committees, City Staff, Council members, local residents and other community members that have expressed an interest in the project. This list of contacts was updated on an ongoing basis throughout the project. The list was the means by which stakeholders were tracked and contacted Page 4 Consultation Report Municipal Master Plan Project City of Kawartha Lakes February 2012 about project meetings, events and significant milestones. 1.2 Class EA Requirements for Master Plan Consultation Master Plan Projects address Phases I & II of the MEA Municipal Class EA process, and at a minimum the corresponding requirements for consultation. Phase I of the Class EA process is the Identification of the Problem or Opportunity. There is no ‘mandatory public contact point’ at this Phase. There is an opportunity for ‘discretionary public consultation to review the problem or opportunity’. Phase II of the Class EA process is the Identification and Evaluation of Alternative Solutions leading to the identification of the Preferred Solution. There is a ‘mandatory public contact point’ at this Phase. Upon the evaluation of alternative solutions and the identification of the preliminary preferred alternative solution, consultation is required with the public and review agencies. This point of consultation addresses consultation requirements on the identification of the problem or opportunity (if not previously done), identification and evaluation of the alternative solutions and the identification of the preliminary preferred alternative solution. After confirming the preferred alternative solution a second ‘mandatory public contact point’ is required during Phase II. This mandatory point of contact is the Notice of Completion. A mandatory 30-day review period follows the Notice of Completion. 1.3 Overview of Consultation Activities 1.3.1 Notices Public Notices were used to inform interested parties on upcoming project-related events. Public Notices were published in two local newspapers, Kawartha Lakes This Week and the Lindsay Post. Notices were issued for the following project milestones: • Project Initiation / Pubic Information Centre No. 1 • Public Information Centre No. 2 • Public Information Centre No. 3 • Project Completion Copies of these notices are included in Appendix B 1.3.2 Public Information Centre’s Three (3) Public Information Centre’s (PIC’s) were held during the study. Each PIC was held in two locations in the City, on different consecutive days – once in Lindsay and once in Coboconk. Each individual PIC included both a public open house as well as a public meeting component. PIC’s were hosted by members of the Consultant Team and City Staff. Additional details in respect to the individual PIC’s are discussed further in Section 2.1. Appendix C1 is a copy of the meeting notes from all PIC sessions; Appendix C2 the sign-in sheets from the PIC’s and Appendix C3 is a copy Page 5 Consultation Report Municipal Master Plan Project City of Kawartha Lakes February 2012 of the PIC handout materials. Open houses provide an informal opportunity for members of the public and other interested stakeholders to review project information and to discuss project issues with the Project Team. Public meetings are a more formal consultation tool and included a presentation by the Project Team followed by a question and answer session. 1.3.3 Workshops A workshop designed to specifically address the needs of members of the Development Community was held on January 26th, 2010. Additional details in respect to the Developers Workshop are discussed further in Section 2.2 1.3.4 City’s Website The City of Kawartha Lakes website (http://www.city.kawarthalakes.on.ca/ ) was a valuable projecttool.

While there is no justification from a land needs perspective to increase the settlement area boundaries, there is no requirements in the Places to Grow Growth Plan to reduce settlement area boundaries in cases where there is more than enough land to accommodate the forecast growth 1. Given that there is a surplus of development land is/will consideration be given to possibly removing land within the current settlement boundary? 2. In the event that the existing land total within settlement boundaries is to be maintained (notwithstanding a projected surplus) can/will consideration be given to possibly transferring lands? 3. Given that the location/alignment of current settlement boundaries in some cases, is neither practical nor realistic to allow for the planned and efficient extension of municipal infrastructure. Will the existing settlement boundary location/alignment be re-assessed?

Expected future growth of the City can be accommodated by local infrastructure, hospitals, etc. Lindsay water and wastewater system can accommodate any demands placed on them by communities that may be connected to the systems in the future. Health care not part of this study. Referred him to EMS Study Jan 27, 2010 Mr. Ron Fevang PIC #3 Comment Sheet Commented that there is a strong need for a cycling plan in the Transportation Master Plan including trails for cycling/walking. Also commented that cycling/waking trails are not compatible with ATV’s, and that ATV’s should be limited to the northern part of the City where there is a connection to trails in Haliburton. Does not believe that ATVing should be promoted in the southern portion of the City when there are no authorized connections to surrounding municipalities. The Trails Master Plan which was completed prior to the Municipal Master Plan project recommended improvements to trails and cycling including restrictions on use. The Transportation Master Plan supports those recommendations and provides recommendations for on and off-street cycling and pedestrian facilities. A Cycling Network Study is required to confirm the need for cycling routes and to address connectivity issues. Page 18 Consultation Report Municipal Master Plan Project City of Kawartha Lakes Date Jan 27, 2010 Name Ms. Marian Sweetnam February 2012 Type of Interaction PIC #3 Comment Sheet Nature of Comment Received Consideration of Input Supports the cycling component of the Transportation Master Plan. Cycling is important to support tourism in the City. The Transportation Master Plan should consider developing bike lanes through Lindsay. A green way is needed through Lindsay to connect the two conservation areas. ATV’s should be promoted in the northern part of the City and not south of Lindsay. The Trails Master Plan which was completed prior to the Municipal Master Plan project recommended improvements to trails and cycling including restrictions on use. The Transportation Master Plan supports those recommendations and provides recommendations for on and off-street cycling and pedestrian facilities. A Cycling Network Study is required to confirm the need for cycling routes and to address connectivity issues. Page 19 Consultation Report Municipal Master Plan Project City of Kawartha Lakes Date Jan 27, 2010 Name Ms. Ellen Woodward February 2012 Type of Interaction PIC #3 Comment Sheet Nature of Comment Received Consideration of Input Commented that the Transportation Master Plan should include all transportation needs including cycling, walking, trails, pathways and bike lanes. Suggests that it is a misguided conclusion that ATV’s/snowmobiles provide an economic impact in or around Lindsay, and that the studies used to support this conclusion were not relevant to the area. Further, that the Trails Master Plan was primarily a rail trail plan and not supported by Council. Finally, that a land use policy for the City of Kawartha Lakes should support a green way for non-motorized use through Lindsay. The Trails Master Plan which was completed prior to the Municipal Master Plan project recommended improvements to trails and cycling including restrictions on use. The Transportation Master Plan supports those recommendations and provides recommendations for on and off-street cycling and pedestrian facilities. A Cycling Network Study is required to confirm the need for cycling routes and to address connectivity issues. UEM confirmed with the City that the Trails Master Plan was endorsed by Council in principle. Page 20 Consultation Report Municipal Master Plan Project City of Kawartha Lakes Date Jan 27, 2010 Name Mr. Allen Macpherson February 2012 Type of Interaction PIC #3 Comment Sheet Nature of Comment Received Consideration of Input Commented that the cycling component of the Transportation Master Plan needs to go further to ensure that future road upgrades consider the addition of cycling lanes. Suggests that the tourism benefits of snowmobiles/ATV’s are location/area specific and should not be considered as a general policy for the entire City. Further that ATV tourism has limited impact on the City and should not be a Transportation Policy. The Trails Master Plan which was completed prior to the Municipal Master Plan project recommended improvements to trails and cycling including restrictions on use. The Transportation Master Plan supports those recommendations and provides recommendations for on and off-street cycling and pedestrian facilities. A Cycling Network Study is required to confirm the need for cycling routes and to address connectivity issues. Additionally, concerned that the Trail Master Plan was used as a basis for some of the policies included in the Transportation Master Plan but that it was never approved by Council. Comments that a separate motorized trail plan and policy is needed. A green way should be established between Lindsay and Ken Reid Conservation Area. UEM confirmed with the City that the Trails Master Plan was endorsed by Council in principle. Page 21 Consultation Report Municipal Master Plan Project City of Kawartha Lakes Date Jan 27, 2010 Name Ms. Barb Macpherson February 2012 Type of Interaction PIC #3 Comment Sheet Nature of Comment Received Consideration of Input The Trails Master Plan which was completed prior to the Municipal Master Plan project recommended improvements to trails and cycling including restrictions on use. The Transportation Master Plan supports those recommendations Believes that since the Trails Master Plan was not and provides recommendations approved by Council, few steps have been taken for on and off-street cycling and towards implementing the recommendations set forth. pedestrian facilities. A Cycling Specifically ATVs, which are argued to result in Network Study is required to negative impacts for the City, especially in urban confirm the need for cycling areas. routes and to address connectivity issues.

Question and Answer Period- Approximately 7:20 p.m. Tom Mohr (South Adelaine, Lindsay) Q: How to achieve 50 pp/ha? A: (Bernie) Accomplished by varying housing types within the area. For example, to get single family home areas to a reasonable density necessary to vary housing types such as the inclusion of townhouses. The idea of the 50 pp/ha is to use the land efficiently. Auston Evans, Lindsay Q: Where does this growth come from? A: (Bernie) A population growth of 9 million people has been allocated to the Greater Horseshoe Area by 2031. This growth has been distributed over the Greater Horseshoe Area, in varying amounts to each municipality. Dave Simser, Cameron Q: What is the rational of the ‘Places to Grow’ legislation? A: (Bernie) ‘Smart growth’ is the rationale to deal with South Ontario urban sprawl. The idea is to slow down sprawl to accommodate the increase in population and encourage growth and development in urban cores. Raymond McMurray, Lindsay Q: Are there social impacts with population growth? A: (Bernie) It is hard to label these social impacts. But, there are many good social impacts of intensifying areas e.g. increased safety (accessibility to police), increased quality of development, increased accessibility, etc. Pat Thorston, Komigo Q: How to accommodate the landfill, sewage treatment plant, water treatment plant with the increased population. A: (Wayne) UEM will asses infrastructure condition & deficiencies. This will affect where municipal servicing funds will be invested. UEM will take growth projects and account for how the new population impacts infrastructure with a preferred development plan. Proper public services and ensuring the public is protected will be the prime concerns. Warren Hartigan, Bobcaygeon Q: Are developments on hold until study is done? A: (Bernie) Some developments are committed already; draft plans have been approved and can proceed if they satisfy the Official Plans requirements and servicing. Dave Simser Q: How does the City of Kawartha Lakes stand up to other areas with respect to ‘Development Charge’? A: (Andrew) The city is looked at favorably relative to GTA and other municipalities in terms of development affordability. Meeting notes prepared by: Urban & Environmental Management Inc.

Question and Answer Period- Approximately 11:25 a.m. Q: No lakeshore developments are addressed at this Pubic Information Center. There was a study on lakeshore developments six (6) years ago that was underfunded. There needs to be a new shoreline study that eventually needs to go into the official plan. A: (Bernie) Not all lake issues are addressed in the terms of reference nor are addressed as part of this study. Page 1 of 3 City of Kawartha Lakes OPA Growth Strategy & Servicing Master Plan Public Information Center Meeting Notes Saturday, May 23, 2009 Q: People want larger lots in non-urban areas, is this covered in your study? How do we make our opinions known? A: (Bernie) We will take your comment and compare to the official plan, although the province opposes very large lots. A: (Bernie) We will put your comment in the Municipal Master Plan Report, since, you raised your question in a public meeting. Q: It seems that the province wants infrastructure dollars to be spent wisely. The tax base here is small. Has the municipality/province looked at what happened in the past? The municipality should look at what they think they can do best and concentrate on that. Where are the services for the aging population? How are we protecting tourism? How are we protecting our lakes? A: (Bernie) The province wants available resources used wisely & effectively. Tourism and addressing the medical needs of an ageing population is not part of this study. Q: It is hard to raise a family in this City; we have to drive regularly to Peterborough. Is there going to be infrastructure to sustain ourselves and growth of jobs? Are roads going to be built as a way to get us out of the community to work? Is this part of your mandate? A: (Bernie) I agree that it is necessary to have a better ratio of jobs to living here. This study will lead to where growth will happen within the City. A: (Wayne) UEM will look at sustainable transportation that is multi-mobile, within the City and with external systems. UEM will also be looking at transit, pedestrian pathways, snowmobiles, etc. UEM’s role is to implement ‘Places to Grow’ legislation with a vision of what infrastructure & municipal services are needed to support existing population and projected growth. Q: What about the areas outside the urban centers? I am concerned that the hamlets are not doing much to attract businesses. A: (Wayne) Your concerns in regard to business growth in the hamlets will be documented but employment growth in the hamlets is limited without full services. Q: There is no official that is acting responsible in regard to dying fish. Where is the larger plan? Water quality is decreasing? Where is the vision for our community? A: (Wayne) UEM will look at infrastructure and its impact on development as we go forward. The City is concerned about water quality, and has discussed pollution control plant overflows with UEM. The City has asked UEM to look at the natural environment and not to further endanger the quality of life of lakes within the City. Q: Are septic tanks going to be looked at in this study? A: (Wayne) we will develop suggestions and potential policies, but we will not do an analysis on the condition of septic tanks. Q: When Lindsay reaches capacity at the Water Treatment Plant, why not build a new treatment plant in a hamlet to let that hamlet grow? A: (Bernie) UEM will look at plant capacities and how to address this issue of Water Treatment Plant capacity. Page 2 of 3 City of Kawartha Lakes OPA Growth Strategy & Servicing Master Plan Public Information Center Meeting Notes Saturday, May 23, 2009 Q: Businesses are looking for people that are educated. How is the City addressing this? A: (Ken): The City is diversifying its economy, not to be dependent on large factories (like Ford). We are talking to colleges and trying to create links. The City is undertaking a ‘Community Sustainability Plan’ report that will set the framework for decision making. A: (Steve S.): The issues brought up at this meeting are the same issues that are brought up at council meetings. Seasonal residents and tourism are very important to the City. Q: Is the quantity of water going to be reduced due to development? What is going to happen to the hamlets in terms of infrastructure? Q: We do not have an identity in Kawartha Lakes to build from. How are we going to make decisions that are in the interest of all of Kawartha Lakes? A: (Bernie) There are many components to this municipality each with their own identity. MHBC will have a section in the report on identity to better define the City of Kawartha Lakes. Q: The City has an aging population. Where will the community growth come from? A: (Bernie) At the present an aging population and the demographics of a community affect needed amenities and housing types. Immigration of the movement of people out of the Greater Toronto Area will impact the population of Kawartha Lakes. A: (Ken) You are correct we need to modify infrastructure as the population ages. The initiatives that are on their way will positively impact the big picture. The ‘Clean Water Act’ set in place the idea of source water protection both surface & sub-surface. This has caused municipalities to create policy initiatives. There are a number of nonvisible things going on to address a number of issues brought up at this meeting. A: (Steve S.) About a year ago we had a meeting on identity and strategic plan for the City. We are close to finalizing the official plan. A: (Ken) We are working on integrating village municipal plans into one (1) broad official plan for the City. Wayne Wood thanked those attending and indicated future meetings will be held late summer or early fall and that anyone wanting to be on the contact list could e-mail or call the UEM office.

Page 3 of 3 City of Kawartha Lakes Growth Plan Strategy & Municipal Master Plan Public Information Centre No. 2 in Coboconk Meeting Notes Wednesday, December 9, 2009 ATTENDANCE: Kawartha Lakes: Chris Darling – Director of Development Services Ken Becking – Director of Public Works Lance Sherk – Economic Development Doug Elmslie – Councilor Emmett Yeo – Councilor Dave Hodgson – Councilor [email protected] [email protected] UEM: Wayne Wood - UEM Project Manager Steve Ahluwalia - UEM Junior Engineer [email protected] [email protected] MHBC: Bernie Hermsen – MHBC Partner [email protected] Public: Open house - approximately 7 persons from the public attended. Presentation - approximately 7 persons from the public attended. Presentation Wayne – Wayne asked everyone if we could delay the presentation to 7:10 PM for people showing up later due to snowy weather conditions. Wayne – UEM in association with MHBC has developed a plan that conforms to the Ontario Places to Grow legislation. This Municipal Master Plan includes a number of components – transportation, solid waste, water & wastewater, and a number of other studies. The project will be completed in early 2010. Another Public Information Center will be held near the end of January where study conclusions will be presented. Currently, the population and employment projections are being finalized. Bernie – The growth plan strategy for this project examined land use and growth forecasts to help the City anticipate land use demands to 2031 to identify servicing requirements & costs. Significant influence on this study is the Ontario Places to Grow legislation. The Province has forecasted growth to 2031 for the City to be 100,000 persons with 27,000 jobs. Another policy direction is the 40% residential development density by 2015 with 50 people per hectare in some areas. The City has a present density of approximately 20-30 persons per hectare. There are opportunities to apply for some relief from this policy direction. The built areas of the four (4) urban growth centers is where the 40% intensification is to take place. The provincial policy statement focuses on services areas for intensification and development to accommodate a range & mix of housing and employment opportunities. MHBC was faced with the challenge of reviewing land use for UEM to examine servicing requirements & costs. City of Kawartha Lakes OPA Growth Strategy & Servicing Master Plan Public Information Center No.2 Meeting Notes for Coboconk December 9, 2009 The province and this Master Plan study have identified four (4) urban growth areas and 30 settlement areas, with growth to be focused on such existing growth areas. Development on full municipal water and sewage services is preferred according to MOE policies and the City of Kawartha Lakes Official Plan. MHBC is going to recommend an adjusted target of 40 persons per hectare with 30% intensification within the existing built up areas. The recommended allocation of forecasted population has taken into account cottage conversions. These people are seniors converting their cottages to permanent residences. In terms of job supply, a large amount of the jobs were provided in 2001-2006. There are two (2) options for growth in Omemee. If the municipal services are not upgraded then Omemee’s growth can be accommodated in Lindsay. Lindsay has vacant land growth and intensification development capacity to accommodate the population, households, and employment forecasted for 2031 for the entire City. The alternative intensification of 30% is recommended for all new residential units after 2015. The alternative Greenfield density target is recommended to be 40 people per hectare. Thus the density and housing unit mix will need to change to meet targets. Wayne – Along with the population and employment growth projections, UEM is looking at servicing requirements and costs. Generally, water & wastewater treatment plants are significant costs for growth as well as existing development. The Lindsay water pollution control plant (WPCP) upgrades will likely increase the rated capacity of the plant to accommodate some growth. The 2006 Lindsay water treatment plant (WTP) upgrade will accommodate growth until approximately 2027 with upgraded pumping. An expansion of the WTP and WPCP will be required approximately one (1) year sooner if Omemee is supplied piped water from Lindsay and the Omemee sewage plant can't be expanded. The City is undertaking an upgrade of the Lindsay WPCP that is scheduled to take place in the next few years. This upgrade is mainly for operations but will also accommodate future growth. The next expansion of the Lindsay WPCP is estimated to be required beyond 2031 and will be required approximately one year sooner if sewage is piped from Omemee to Lindsay. Approximately 20% of Omemee’s existing urban area gets water from the Victoria-Glen WTP. Currently in Omemee, work is being considered by the City to find additional local water & expand the WTP. A local water supply solution is needed to support growth unless water is piped from Lindsay. Omemee’s WPCP is over capacity seasonally and does not meet Pigeon River discharge criteria. As well, sewer infiltration adds unnecessary treatment & discharge demands. Current studies and plans for engineered wetlands, spray irrigation & new headwork’s will support growth if successful. The Fenelon Falls WTP has minor supply/treatment deficiencies, and planned operational upgrades will support growth beyond 2031 without expansion of the plant. The existing water distribution system should be extended to service existing unserviced areas as well as growth. For Fenelon Falls wastewater, expansion of the collection system is planned for existing unserviced areas and growth. Upgrading of the WPCP will be required soon to address operational efficiencies and regulatory requirements for the plant. Completion of the planned plant upgrades should be capable of supporting growth beyond 2031. The Bobcaygeon WTP is site constrained for possible future expansion, and the estimated expansion year is beyond 2031. Ongoing leak repairs and a recommended water conservation program if successful should further delay expansion of the plant. The Bobcaygeon WPCP is a modern, well-maintained facility with capacity to support estimated growth. The estimated expansion year is beyond 2031. The sewage treatment plant is also site constrained for future expansion which could result in neighbor concerns. Some settlement areas have partial municipal services. There is some servicing capacity available in those settlement areas where municipal water is available. Approximate costs per new lot serviced in the Page 2 of 4 City of Kawartha Lakes OPA Growth Strategy & Servicing Master Plan Public Information Center No.2 Meeting Notes for Coboconk December 9, 2009 settlement areas range from $7,000 in Pontypool to $10,000 in Bethany. Water servicing costs for settlement areas are much greater than for the urban growth areas, with the possible exception of Omemee. For wastewater, only Coboconk and Kings Bay have sewage treatment plants. Infill of settlement area boundaries will be on private systems that will be assessed on a case-by-case basis. The Ministry of the Environment (MOE) could limit development on private sewage disposal systems in some settlement areas because of groundwater contamination. The transportation section of this Master Plan is almost complete. UEM has collected & updated existing traffic counts, developed growth rates, developed & calibrated traffic models, reviewed collision experience, inventoried & assessed parking, and assessed existing traffic conditions. Currently, UEM is working on identifying improvements to accommodate traffic demands, and prioritization of improvements. UEM will review the current capital program and project commitments, document transit improvement opportunities, review active transportation, identify fleet/equipment requirements, prepare Master Plan recommendations, and prepare an implementation schedule. Currently, the City has a weekly curbside waste collection program for all permanent single-family residences, all seasonal residences, some multi-residential, and industrial/commercial/institutional properties. There is an alternating weekly collection program for blue and green boxes. In 2008, the Residential Waste Diversion Rate was 41%. As the City grows, more of the existing landfill capacity will be consumed by waste and there are opportunities to increase this diversion rate beyond 41%. Emerging technologies will allow for an extended life of the existing landfill site to what was projected in the past. UEM has reviewed waste management programs in other municipalities. The City of Kawartha Lakes could benefit from the knowledge from such similar programs. Question & Answers 1. Question: There is a solid waste management committee looking at separation of organics and other issues; is UEM aware of this committee work? It would be good if UEM could attend our committee. Wayne: Our work is consistent with what the solid waste committee is doing and we welcome the opportunity to sit in with the committee. 2. Question: There was already a fleet study undertaken by Watson & Associates. Wayne: Yes, there has been work done on fleet as part of the D.C. study. We are using available reports as directed by Council to build on and to check if the fleet can meet future needs. We regularly meet with Watson & Associates to ensure consistency between our respective project work for the City including Master Plan conclusions affecting development charges. 3. Question: What is the level of detail under this Master Plan for capital costs for bridges for example? Wayne: This Master Plan is kept at a high level including capital costs. We will continue and have been looking at growth and its affect on bridges but not a detailed analysis of every bridge in the City. 4. Question: With respect to the projection of jobs & housing, is it mostly retirees from Toronto? Bernie: Yes, a significant amount of people may be retirees from Toronto. Approximately four (4) million persons are moving to the GTA in the next few years, with a range of lifestyles. So a range of lifestyles in the City would be accounted for to provide programs and services to live, work, and play. A retiree who cannot afford a cottage on a lake will possibly buy within an urban area. There will be retirees coming to the City with a range of incomes. The difficulty from a planning perspective is looking at land demand from a top down approach in accordance with the Places to Grow Legislation. Page 3 of 4 City of Kawartha Lakes OPA Growth Strategy & Servicing Master Plan Public Information Center No.2 Meeting Notes for Coboconk December 9, 2009 5. Question: Some people still want to live in bedroom communities which has been taken into account; such as Hamlet (settlement) areas. Bernie: Municipal and provincial governments are looking for full municipal servicing for future growth. Private services are difficult to administer and take up extra land. There will still be development in the hamlets/settlement areas but most will be directed to the urban growth areas. 6. Question: Waterfront property constitutes a large amount of the total land development. Bernie: Yes, and it will be increasingly difficult and expensive to service this type of land. 7. Question: Can you elaborate on the forecast for jobs? Does this forecast form a healthy tax base for the City? Can you explain the population projections for the number of retirees from other areas projected to move to the City? Bernie: I agree, the employment projections are conservative and we hope that other forms of a more steady tax base will develop. Also, the population projections and respective age groups are just projections which might not occur. 8. Question: Can you further discuss piping to Omemee? Wayne: There have been Council resolutions for staff to follow, and a made in Omemee solution is being pursued for sewage treatment but not for water treatment. There may be potential for groundwater as a local water supply in Omemee. The problem is that the aquifers vary in elevation thus causing reliability issues. Also, the existing private wells may have some health concerns. Groundwater may be used as an interim solution with the long term solution of piping treated water from Lindsay open as an option. 9. Question: As a taxpayer, I am concerned with the costs of piping to Omemee, and the capital costs should be based on what people can pay. Wayne: If you transfer the Omemee growth population to Lindsay there is available water servicing capacity. This will have a relatively small impact on the Lindsay water treatment plant expansion. All Master Plan recommendations will have estimated costs to Council with options. 10. Question: Why is Omemee a growth area? Bernie: Historically Omemee has a sizable urban boundary. When the province did the study for Places to Grow the existing urban boundary was used as for this study Meeting notes prepared by: Meeting notes prepared by: Urban & Environmental Management Inc.

Presentation Wayne – We are going to have an approx. 40 minute presentation that will review the Growth Plan Strategy & Municipal Master Plan. Bernie Hermsen a MHBC Partner, Greg Tara General Manager of UEM, and I – Wayne Wood UEM Senior Engineer will be conducting the presentation. UEM in association with MHBC has developed a plan that corresponds to Places to Grow legislation, this Municipal Master Plan includes a number of components – transportation, solid waste, water & waste water, and a number of smaller studies. Another Public Information Center will be held near the end of January where study conclusions will be presented. Currently, the population and employment projections are being finalized.

Wayne – This Public Information Center is going to summarize where we are to date, the final conclusions of our study will be presented at Public Information Center 3. Along with the population and employment growth projections, UEM is looking at servicing requirements and costs. UEM used historic reports to create the municipal master plan when possible as directed by council. Generally, water & wastewater treatment plants are significant costs for growth as well as existing development. The Lindsay water pollution control plant (WPCP) upgrades will likely increase the rated capacity of the plant to accommodate some growth. The 2006 Lindsay water treatment plant (WTP) upgrade will accommodate growth until approximately 2027 with upgraded pumping.

The City is undertaking an upgrade of the Lindsay WPCP that is scheduled to take place in the next few years. This upgrade is mainly for operations but will also accommodate future growth. The next expansion of the Lindsay WPCP is estimated to be required beyond 2031 and again will be required approximately 1-year sooner if sewage is piped from Omemee to Lindsay. Approximately 20% of Omemee’s existing urban area gets water from the Victoria-Glen WTP. Currently in Omemee, work is being considered by the City to find additional local water supply & expand the WTP.

UEM will review the current capital program and project commitments, document transit improvement opportunities, review active transportation, identify fleet/equipment requirements, prepare Master Plan recommendations, and prepare an implementation schedule. Greg –The solid waste services the City provides is weekly solid waste pickup, blue & green box collection, serving the industrial commercial and institutional (ICI) - business sector, organics collection, and hazardous waste collection. The City collects curbside waste weekly from all permanent single-family residences, to all seasonal residences, to some multi-residential and IC&I properties. The City has a good diversion rate of 41% a rate 50 to 60% is achievable. However, the ICI sector has little incentive to help. Study issues include handling seasonal residents solid waste, opportunities with other municipalities regarding shared facilities & services, the establishment of a facility within the City of Kawartha Lakes for processing of materials collected through the blue box (containers) and green box (fibers) programs, results of the pilot source separated organics (sso) program, and the role of landfills in the long-term. The preferred alternative will be determined using net effects analysis. With regard to seasonal residents there are questions about providing year-round service, and service for island residents. Also, public versus private blue and green box program is being evaluated. Consideration is being given to whether the SSO program be implemented City wide. Waste processing facilities are for recyclables, residual waste, and organics. Recyclable fibers is processed at the Metro Waste Recovery Facility in Scarborough, containers are processed at the Northumberland material recovery facility. Residual waste is disposed of at one of the City’s five active landfills. Organics are processed at the Lindsay-Ops Landfill, Laxton Landfill and at the closed Lindsay Street North Landfill, and there is a pilot Program for SSO organics are composted in open windrows at the Fenelon Landfill. Wayne – Public Information Center No. 3 will emphasis population and its impact on infrastructure. The preliminary dates for this public information center are January 28 & 29, 2009. Question & Answers Question (Mr. Hattson): Why were the existing deficiencies at the sewage plant and landfill site not corrected before this study was undertaken? Leachate from the landfill site is getting into the water. Wayne: This issue deals solely with operational concerns and is beyond this study, we will notify the engineering department of your concern in writing. Question (Mr. Green): Are the dollar values in your presentation in today’s dollars? Why hospitals are not considered infrastructure? Wayne: Yes, the dollar values in the presentation are in today’s dollars. Hospitals were not considered in this master plan, but I am hopeful the City will give this plan to hospitals, etc. This might be one of our Page 3 of 4 City of Kawartha Lakes OPA Growth Strategy & Servicing Master Plan Public Information Center Meeting Notes December 10, 2009 recommendations to council that referrals be made to hospitals/etc. The emergency medical services report is going to be made compatible with this study. Question (Ms. Coward): There is a high conversion rate of seasonal to full time residents; will those seasonal residents be included in the transportation master plan? Wayne: This issue is not addressed in the transportation master plan. There are some that argue private roads should not be changed to public. Question (Mr. Green): Does the population forecast for the four (4) urban areas and the recommended allocation discourage severances? Bernie: Not as a result of this study. In 2005 the province adopted the provincial policy statement including severances; the province has been tightening up and now there is little opportunity to severe a lot. Question (Bernie): Frank Smith had a question during the presentation, but I deferred him to the question and answer period. He happened to leave before the question and answer period started, can I get his contact information to inquire about the question he had.

Presentation - approximately 10 persons from the public attended. Presentation G. Taras –Brief introductions of the consulting team were made. B. Hermsen – Presented Growth Management Strategy section. W. Wood – Presented the Water & Wastewater Servicing and Transportation. G. Taras – Presented the Solid Waste and Next Step sections. Question & Answer Question (J. Armstrong) – Did you look at water & wastewater linear systems? Is ageing an issue? Answer (P. Flood) – We did look at linear and vertical infrastructure, including water treatment, water mains, wastewater treatment, sanitary sewers, and sewage pumping stations. Ageing is an issue for horizontal infrastructure and the City does manage these assets in terms of expected life to determine when replacement will be necessary. Also there are technologies to help the linear infrastructure including tunneling and lining of pipes to reduce costs. Question (Unkown) - Is there any issue with storm infrastructure being connected to the sanitary system. Answer (P. Flood) – In older areas of the City there are downspouts still hooked up to sanitary sewers, these areas were typically constructed in the 1920’s when there weren’t records of such instances. Staff is continually looking into finding these leaks into the system. Page 1 of 2 Question (E. Tuson) – Are there any inflow & infiltration recommendation for this study? Answer (P. Flood) – Inflow & infiltration recommendations are below the Master Plan level. Inflow and infiltration in the Lindsay system is limited to extreme wet weather events. UEM did look at trunks with inflow & infiltration issues and staff is aware of it. Question (Unknown) - When will there be studies on the effect of septic tanks on Lakes? Answer (C. Darling) – There have been discussions with the conservation authority to improve water quality this will include looking at septic systems. Question (J. Armstrong) – Does the transportation section of the Municipal Master Plan include safety issues? Answer (P. Monaghan) – There was a collision safety analysis done and it was found that the collision rate in the City was not above provincial averages. Question (E. Tuson) – Is there room for the projected 2031population of 100,000 in if no growth were to occur in the hamlets? Answer (B. Hermsen) – Yes. Question (Unknown) - The Growth Management Strategy & Municipal Master Plan did not address water front issues. Answer (C. Darling) – Water front designated areas allow certain development in those areas. The update to the Draft Official Plan 2009 will be updated on this issue. Question (E. Tuson) – What about THM’s (Trihalomethanes ) in the Lindsay Water Treatment Plant will this cause a change in process? Answer (P. Flood) – The City adjusts dosing at the plant regularly to compensate for THM’s. This project concentrated growth related issues and hydraulic reserve capacity. Page 2 of 2 City of Kawartha Lakes Growth Plan Strategy & Municipal Master Plan Public Information Centre No. 3 in Coboconk Meeting Notes Thursday, January 28, 2010 ATTENDANCE: Kawartha Lakes: Chris Darling –Director of Development Services Doug Carroll - Manager of Planning Dave Kerr – Engineering Doug Elmslie – Councilor Steve Strangway – Councilor Ric McGee – Mayor UEM: Wayne Wood – Project Manager Greg Taras – General Manager Steve Ahluwalia – Engineer [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] Public: Open house - approximately 8 persons attended. Presentation - approximately 8 persons attended. Presentation G. Taras –Brief introductions of the consulting team were made. G. Taras – Presented the Growth Management Strategy. W. Wood – Presented the Water & Wastewater Servicing and Transportation sections. G. Taras – Presented the Solid Waste and Next Step sections. Question & Answer Question (M. Barkwell) – The province projects approximately 3,000 more jobs by 2031. Answer (G. Taras) – Yes, the province projects approximately 3,000 from 2006 to 2031. Now a significant number of these jobs have already been created. An example of this is the jobs created by the Lindsay Jail. Question (P. Arkwright) – The effect of the population projections on fish & wildlife? What about waterfront houses with private septic’s affect on the environment? Where will Hwy 35 be expanded? Where are people going to go in terms of transportation? Some areas already get very congested. Answer (G. Taras) – The Places to Grow legislation is meant to prevent urban sprawl outside the built boundary minimizing the effect on fish & wildlife. Answer (D. Kerr) – The City is working with the conservation authority, roundtable groups to find solutions to water contamination, an aspect of this is septics near lakes. Additionally there are source water protection plans planned for the year 2011-2012 for added protection to municipal water intakes from fertilizers and stormwater. Page 1 of 3 Answer (W. Wood) – Hwy 35 south of Hwy 7 is being discussed by the Ministry of Transportation and the City. UEM recommends that Hwy 35 north of Hwy 7 should also be looked at as well. In terms of transportation there will be periods of congestion. Typically transportation systems are designed for a typical situation not a peak. Question (M. Barkwell) – What does intensification mean in terms of the type of housing? What does that mean in terms of water & wastewater services? Answer (G. Taras) – There will be a variety and combination of housing types including single/semi detached, townhomes, apartments, etc to meet the population targets. Answer (W. Wood) – Severances occur on lots with municipal water & wastewater. Question (B. Jackett) – If we wanted to build a Church in a Greenfield area can we use a tilebed? Answer (W. Wood) – That is up to the approving authority. They need to follow the provincial policy. The whole idea of Places to Grow legislation is to allow for growth on full municipal services. In some rural areas the health department is the approving authority. Answer (D. Kerr) – We want to follow the provincial policy when possible, but for example some existing occupied lots are still on private septics. Question (J. Webster) – Who pays for proposed sewer pipes? Answer (W. Wood) – Developers work with the City to determine if up front funding or developer funding is required. Question (B. Jackett) – Why can’t we grow outside the built boundary? Where is projected employment going to take place? Answer (W. Wood) – The City has more land inventory than required under Places to Grow and therefore the City may not be able to consider development outside the settlement boundary based on Provincial Policies. There will be an opportunity for change every five (5) years under the Places to Grow land review exercise. Also Council can reassign development to other parts of the municipality. Projected employment is expected to take place in the urban areas particularly Lindsay. Question (J. Webster) – This Master Plan is a meaningless exercise? Answer (W. Wood) – We have to work within the Places to Grow legislation. Question (M. Barkwell) – What about properties that are designated for Intensification but the owners do not want to develop the land? Answer (G. Taras) – This will be reassessed every five (5) years under Places to Grow. Answer (D. Elmslie) – Also the Official Plan will be reviewed in 2010/2011. Question (B. Jackett) – What is the cost of the Lindsay Pollution Plant upgrade and what is the Plant’s impact on the lake? Answer (W. Wood) – The upgrade to the Lindsay Pollution Plant is identified in the report with a cost in the order of $17 million dollars. Answer (D. Kerr) – The plant will be designed for better energy efficiency and the lagoon system will be upgraded. Flemming College is helping design wetlands. To meet discharge criteria water samples are taken up/downstream of the plant. Question (J. Webster) – How long has the Source Separated Organics Pilot Project in Fenelon Falls been in place? Answer (G. Taras) – Since 2007 with a pilot program that collects the organics and composts organics. Question (R. McGee – Mayor) – Did you look into the recommendation of piping to Omemee? Answer (W. Wood) – Local aquifers to provide water supply to Omemee is an interim solution to the long term solution of piping to Lindsay. Question (J. Webster) – What if we want to develop land outside the settlement boundary? Page 2 of 3 Answer (W. Wood) – The City has more land inventory than required under Places to Grow and therefore the City may not be able to consider development outside the settlement boundary based on Provincial Policies. There will be an opportunity for change every five (5) years under the Places to Grow land review exercise. Also Council can reassign development to other parts of the municipality. Answer (Doug Carroll) – The Ontario government says the City can modify urban designation and potentially reassign to full serviced urban areas of the municipality. There have been examples of Greenfield areas within the city and the owners have chosen not to develop. Question (B. Jackett) – Why not let the City grow naturally instead of considering Places to Grow boundaries? Answer (W. Wood) – The province is trying to limit the intrusion of development into Greenfield areas and to require land that is to be developed to be fully serviced. Page 3 of 3 PROJECT PURPOSE – GROWTH MANAGEMENT STRATEGY STUDY The purpose of the City of Kawartha Lakes Growth Management Strategy Study is to develop a strategy to plan for growth and manage growth in a sustainable manner that addresses economic, social and environmental considerations. The study will: Growth Management Strategy Study Public Information Centre #1 May 2009 • Examine land use supply and demand and existing and planned infrastructure to better understand how and where the City of Kawartha Lakes should grow over the long term planning horizon to 2031 • Identify and assess growth alternatives for the City • Recommend a preferred growth alternative • Provide a framework and guiding document from which decisions regarding servicing systems, transportation and other city-wide considerations can be addressed and importantly coordinated. THE CLASS EA APPROACH WILL BE FOLLOWED LEGISLATION CONTEXT – PLACES TO GROW PLAN The Province’s forecasted growth to 2031 for City of Kawartha Lakes: 100,000 people (additional 28,000 from 2001) 27,000 jobs (7,000 more jobs from 2001) Key policy directions: • Majority of growth to settlement areas • Direct growth to built-up areas through intensification and redevelopment • Municipal water and waste water systems are the preferred form of servicing Official plans to be updated to conform to the Places to Grow Plan by June 16, 2009. Separate amendments are being prepared for this purpose. • LEGISLATION CONTEXT – PROVINICAL BUILT BOUNDARY LEGISLATION CONTEXT – PLACES TO GROW POLICY DIRECTIONS • A minimum of 40% of all residential development will be within built-up areas by 2015. • More compact land use patterns in greenfield areas proposed through use of a density target of 50 persons or jobs per hectare. • Growth Plan establishes an opportunity for the Minister to approve an alternative intensification target and permit an alternative density target to ensure the density target is appropriate given the characteristics of the community. • No urban growth centres or major transit station areas identified within the City of Kawartha Lakes. • Protect and manage natural areas and agricultural lands • • New multiple lots and units for residential development may only be allowed in rural areas in site specific locations where approved zoning or designation permitted the development as of June 2006. Settlement area boundary expansions only considered as part of a municipal comprehensive review. Source: Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe • The Province’s approved Built Boundary has identified: – 4 settlement areas of Lindsay, Bobcaygeon, Fenelon Falls and Omemee as having a delineated built-up area. – The built-up area is the area within which the intensification target for the City is intended to be achieved. – 30 hamlets in the City were identified as “undelineated” built up areas. These are typically smaller, unserviced or partially serviced hamlets with limited capacity to accommodate significant future growth. 1 LEGISLATION CONTEXT – PROVINCIAL POLICY STATEMENT (2005) • The Provincial Policy Statement (PPS) establishes the following policy directions: – Land uses managed to meet the full range of current and future needs of residents – Growth focused to existing settlement areas – Sufficient land through intensification and redevelopment and, as required, designated growth areas, to accommodate an appropriate range and mix of employment opportunities, housing and other land uses to meet the projected needs for time horizon of up to 20 years – Cost effective development standards to minimize land consumption and servicing costs – Municipal sewage services and water services are the preferred form of servicing – Ensure necessary infrastructure and public service facilities are or will be available – Optimize existing infrastructure and public service facilities before consideration is given to developing new infrastructure and public service facilities. – Protection of prime agricultural areas – Protection of employment areas GROWTH MANAGEMENT STUDY PROCESS • Work completed to date: Population and Housing Analysis Population and Housing Projections Employment Projections Residential Land Supply Inventory Employment Land and Vacant Building Inventory – Preliminary population, household and employment projections have been prepared – Designated development land capacity has been assessed • Future steps will include: – – – – Employment Analysis We are here Finalize land need calculations to 2031 Determine growth alternatives Work towards a preferred growth alternative The results from Phase 2 will inform the completion of a municipal Master Plan.

Project Manager Paul Flood - Project Engineer Greg Taras – Project Planner Steve Ahluwalia – Engineering Support Patrick Monaghan – Transportation Support [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] MHBC: Bernie Hermsen – Senior Planner [email protected] Development Community: Workshop - approximately 27 persons from the development community attended. The registration list of attendees is included as Attachment “A” to these notes. Presentation G. Taras – Welcomed everyone and introduced the consultant team and City of Kawartha Lakes staff in attendance. He requested that all representatives of the development community, City staff and any others in attendance introduce themselves. The format for the workshop was outlined and included brief introductions, presentation by the Consultant Team, identification of developers’ concerns, response to developers’ concerns and general discussion. B. Hermsen – Presented the Growth Management Strategy. W. Wood – Presented the water & wastewater servicing and transportation sections. G. Taras – Presented the solid waste section. Part A: Developers’ Question & Concerns During the first part of the Developers’ Workshop, participants were asked to identify issues related to the Growth Plan Strategy and Municipal Master Plan project. No discussion of issues was undertaken at this time. Issues were identified and noted for further discussion in the next part of the workshop. The following lists the participant and the issue identified. Jim Mackey - Will a request to the Province for a reduction in density affect the population growth projections? Rather than reducing densities, higher densities could be beneficial in Fenelon Falls by reducing servicing costs per unit because of the rock. Susan Hawkshaw - How does Places to Grow legislation reach the practical level for implementation? Greg Defreitas - Were existing and future development lands examined for possible environmental constraints? Have potential ESA areas been identified and excluded? Roger Cunnington - What is the approval process for this Master Plan project and how long for the Province and the City to finalize it? We need to finish this so that development can proceed. Thomas Rees - How does the population growth allocation consider and/or affect already planned and committed developments? Darryl Tighe - Also respecting the present Fenelon Falls urban growth boundary, will there be any consideration to transfer urban area from one location within the City to another for practical development taking into account infrastructure? Existing landowner in Fenelon Falls has large property transected by existing growth boundary (east side). Can minor adjustments be made? (e.g. slip of the magic marker). In other words, can we shrink the urban boundary a little in one location and enlarge it in another to make growth more reasonable regarding overall land-use and servicing? Heather Sadler - Again, how does Places to Grow legislation reach the practical level? In addition to the 30,000 foot level Master Plan overview, on the ground, how will development & servicing policies be implemented fairly? Joe Matys - Similar questions on horizontal/individual development site servicing. Mike Barkwell (President of Kawartha Lakes Real Estate Association) - Similar questions as above for Fenelon Falls and overall City on how the urban growth boundary mapping lines were developed and might be adjusted. Will the new Official Plan have more settlement in Fenelon Falls? Raising the existing 10 m building height restriction in Fenelon Falls would help to achieve provincial density targets. Is a second bridge being recommended for Fenelon Falls? Natalie - Similar questions/concerns to those already raised. Tim Burke - What are the key assumptions on population growth? Has there been a sensitivity analysis completed? Will there be allowance or adjustments for future changes in the actual growth rate? Ron Swain - Similar to Tim’s questions/comments on the percentage intensification target (i.e. could adjustments result in the reassignment of the population growth distribution)? Calculations also affected by phasing of development. Can we also discuss water & wastewater and storm water management infrastructure? Page 2 of 6 Michael Smith - What is the rationale for recommending a decrease in intensification and what is the effect on persons/ha, employment/ha, distribution of population? Is there a need to stage development? Is there a need for a second bridge in Fenelon Falls and is there a long term transportation plan? Marty Stollar - Have a number of questions and concerns regarding the presentation and the overall planning process. Also have specific questions on the Growth Management Study, the servicing master plan, sewage collection in Lindsay, and the identification of intensification sites. Angelo Orsi - How were the population projections calculated? Province seems to be legislating/acting otherwise than free-market choices for settlement location and housing type. How can they force growth to specific areas? Economic viability needs to be considered. How does the legislation and Master Plan anticipate this? How do we meet those projections in intensification areas? Determination of economic viability is systematic with servicing decisions. Austin Evans - Can we discuss Parkside & Logie St in Fenelon Falls? I have similar questions on Fenelon Falls growth boundary and intensification percentages. Tom Scanlan - What is the justification for recommending a decrease in intensification from Places to Grow legislation? Fenelon Falls has high servicing costs. Large scale servicing and intensification projects are more affordable on a per unit basis. The 10 m height restriction is also an agreed issue. Is stormwater management part of this Master Plan? Ashley Mason - Have similar issues to those already identified. John Wood - Would like to discuss new Official Plan map schedules, new types of development, hamlet development constraints and ecology & sustainability issues. In particular, would like to discuss previous draft plan applications, approved developments & flexibility regarding the legislation and today's issues. Bill O’Neill - No comment. Tom Jarvis - No comment. Part B: Discussion of Issues and Comments During the second part of the Developers’ Workshop the Consultant Team and/or City of Kawartha Lakes staff provided a response to the questions, comments and issues identified in the first part of the workshop. Responses were provided based on similar comments/issues, rather than a response to each individual. The following identifies the responses provided. In some instances, further questions/discussions ensued. Participants’ further questions/comments and the response are also identified in this section. Answers Bernie Hermsen (MHBC Planning Consultants) - The Places to Grow legislation, passed in June 2006, changed regulated intensification and greenfield population rates drastically with a high degree of provincial involvement. There have been some issues with interpretation of the legislation at the local level and there have also been a few Ontario Municipal Board hearings on this. In the areas outlying the GTA, (e.g. Brant County, Wellington County, and Peterborough), there is no designated growth centre, and in those places, the Minister has considered density reductions. Kawartha Lakes is in a similar situation and as such, the Consultant Team believe that it is reasonable to request a similar density reduction. Page 3 of 6 The Province is targeting 40% intensification by 2015 but is not suggesting the housing type to achieve this objective. The intensification goal is for 40% of all development applications to be greater than the provincial objective for increased population and employment density per acre. Environmental lands as identified in the Official Plan were removed from the land supply during the inventory process. Development applications submitted before the Places to Grow legislation was passed fall under transition policies as long as the same plans are carried forward. The City of Kawartha Lakes currently has more designated growth land than required to meet the legislation. This is why the transfer of development land allocation from one urban center to another has not been brought up with the Province. The height restriction for development in Fenelon Falls can be addressed in secondary plans and development applications. Population growth and density are the primary issues of the provincial legislation. Hemsen Planning Consultants was hired by the Province to develop long term population projections. The Places to Grow strategy for Kawartha Lakes will be reviewed every five years similar to official plans and development charges. As for ensuring that people come to this area, it will be dependent on the dynamics of the City. The economics of development of greenfield, intensification, and redevelopment areas is expected to continue to apply. If the agreed intensification targets are not being met by 2015 the potential greenfield development areas could be cut back to encourage higher densities. Heather Sadler - The province will try and make sure that the desired population and densities are achieved and infrastructure investment will be an issue. Angelo Orsi – The Places to Grow legislation seems flawed and it might not work. Greg Taras (UEM) - We anticipate recommending that the City submit a request for a decrease in intensification, but the province could reject this. Michael Smith - What about assignment of population to urban areas and hamlets? Bernie Hermsen (MHBC) – Based on the existing settlement boundaries, the City has enough designated development land to accommodate the growth projections to the year 2031 which is the horizon year for this Master Plan. Buildout populations have also been estimated for the existing vacant land supply and intensification which, as noted in the presentation, is well beyond the 2031 analysis year. Chris Darling (City of Kawartha Lakes Director of Planning) - The process that the City will follow is that the draft Official Plan will be adopted. Then, once the Growth Management Study and Municipal Master Plan are completed and approved by Municipal Council, then the Official Plan will be updated to reflect the growth strategy. Additional Official Plan work is also anticipated for Fenelon Falls. Marty Stollar - Historical populations, growth rates, and numbers for 2009 might not be dismissible. Bernie Hermsen - We have and will continue to review and consider available population statistics. Page 4 of 6 Paul Flood (UEM) – With respect to stormwater management (SWM), the MOE guidelines are reliable and will continue to be followed in accordance with current City development & servicing policies. Local infrastructure requirements for new & infill developments is typically not in the capital budget and therefore was not evaluated in detail for this Master Plan. SWM and other local horizontal servicing requirements for new developments will continue to be evaluated on a case-by-case basis with the developer typically responsible for the servicing and related costs. Stormwater management for most developments will typically rely on lot level controls in accordance with MOE guidelines. There are a couple of communal/regional SWM facilities that will be required for the development of the NW Lindsay area. Marty Stollar - Lindsay development has been frozen in the past due to sewage treatment plant capacity, and we don't want this to happen again. Can you expand on the pollution control plant upgrades that are listed for 2011? Paul Flood (UEM) - The next Lindsay WPCP expansion will have to be completed for when the population reaches approximately 33,000 which is expected slightly beyond the horizon year of 2031. The 2011 plant upgrade, although mostly for operational improvements, is expected to add some additional capacity for growth by virtue of the improvements that are made. Wayne Wood (UEM Project Manager) - The Master Plan is being formulated to avoid development in the City being frozen. For a plant upgrade or expansion, typically the City and their engineers would start the plant performance analysis and corresponding design at least 5 years in advance (i.e. when the plant reaches about 80% of rated capacity including allowance for committed and ongoing developments). City staff actively monitor collection system and sewage plant flows to anticipate upgrade and expansion needs. There is also the various planning, servicing, and capital cost reviews every 5 years to ensure good planning, as mentioned previously. Marty Stollar - We should be careful not to believe the sewage treatment plant expansion is needed later than might be necessary, and this should be clarified in the Master Plan. Council must understand that the planning for expansion, the approvals, design and construction need to be completed well in advance of the estimated date when new capacity is required. Only in this way will a development freeze, as was previously experienced, be avoided. This will also be important for the DC bylaw. Did you only rely on old reports for the Master Plan, or were new studies completed? Were the old reports critically reviewed? Wayne Wood (UEM) - UEM undertook a thorough review of available servicing reports and related information. In some areas we did conduct additional data collection and analysis to review/confirm previous study findings and related recommendations. Over 100 reports were examined related just to water and wastewater servicing. Many other reports were also reviewed related to the other components of this study. In some cases, previous capacity, cost, and budget timing estimates were adjusted for updated reliability. Marty Stollar - Are the deliverables for this project going to be available for review by the public? If so, will they be provided in digital form? Wayne Wood - Yes, there will be a summary report and all information for the Master Plan project will be available electronically. Some background information will be available digitally, however, much of it was received by the Consultant Team in hard copy, and it was not the mandate of this project to convert it to electronic files. Page 5 of 6 Marty Stollar - A developers’ meeting was originally included in the workplan for early February 2009 when the Master Plan Study was being initiated, however it did not take place at that time. How was the intensification and greenfield inventory completed if there was no contact with the development community? Bernie Hermsen - The areas were identified through existing mapping and meetings with planning staff. Additional sites were examined that had development potential. Also, at the two previous sets of public information centres, public input helped to identify other areas. The process was intended to be all inclusive. Marty Stollar - A June 2009 engineering report on servicing the Northwest area of Lindsay did not consider the intensification of Drainage Areas 7, 8, & 15. This could limit the residential development potential of this area. Is there reliance on the Lindsay Sanitary Sewer 2007 design report and/or talks with staff? Were the inflow allowances of this report revisited? The report to Council indicated that you signed off on this. Bernie Hermsen - We did not sign off on that issue. Wayne Wood - We do not want to limit intensification. We talked to City engineering and operations staff, and we visited the various major servicing sites. In our review, we choose to amend some of the conclusions and recommendations of the available servicing reports. Paul Flood - The infiltration & inflow allowances identified in the previous reports by others have been reviewed and updated by UEM. Additional sewer flow analysis will be recommended in the Master Plan. Wayne Wood - Regarding the second bridge in Fenelon Falls, our analysis from a traffic growth prospective indicates that another bridge is not necessary. However, we are aware of the existing structural and emergency condition issues. Z:\UEM\Projects\2008\400\08-409 Kawartha Lakes Municipal Master Plan\D.

Welcome and Introductions UEM introduced the project and transportation planning work that has been done to date. The purpose of the meeting is twofold: to obtain comments from the ministry regarding the preliminary TMP findings circulated the previous week and to obtain an understanding of the ministry’s long term plans for the highway corridors in and around the city. 2 3 The MTO remarked that it has no facilities in Bobcageon and Fenelon Falls and has no comment on the TMP findings here. Omimee is covered by a collecting link and improvements to the link are subject to MTO review and approval. However, MTO has no comment on the Omemee findings. Comments will be limited to the Lindsay area. As a general comment, MTO was surprised that the TMP conclusions did not go further in some areas. It was also surprised that capital costs for improvements to non-City infrastructure was shown in the City’s Improvement Plan. UEM confirmed that these improvements will be removed from the table. • MTO noted the following planning initiatives: INFO INFO INFO UEM Meeting Minutes City of Kawartha Lakes Transportation Master Plan No. Agenda Item • Hwy 35 south of Hwy 7, the Ministry has EA approval for the widening from 4 lanes to 5 lanes, to include a continuous left turn lane. This project is in detailed design with completion expected this fiscal year and construction beginning in the next. Action by INFO • This project will include a realignment of the access to the trailer park (Riverwood Road) to make a four legged intersection. This road will become a municipal road. • The MTO is currently rehabilitating and widening the Scugog INFO River Bridge to a four lane structure. This work was initiated as a result of the deteriorated condition of the existing structure. The ministry hopes to finalize an EA for the widening of Hwy 7 from Angeline Street to Hwy 36 by April, 2010. The work will extend beyond Hwy 36 to Slant Road and to just past Angeline Street. Widening the Hwy 7 corridor to the west is a possible long range improvement. • MTO indicated that it has identified capacity challenges at the Angeline Street intersection with Hwy 7. It has studied the possible grade separation of this intersection as a longer term solution. A vision for what the City sees for the Angeline Street corridor to the north is required so that alternative improvements at the highway can be identified and assessed. Some of these may include provision of dual SB left turn lanes, which will require additional property (McEwan property and eventual restriction of access with SB left lanes). MTO has reports and traffic studies available that will provide traffic forecasts and alternatives under study. MTO to make these available to the City/UEM for consideration in the TMP. • MTO confirmed it is completing an EA proposing to realign the Hwy 7/35/Kent Street connection where Hwy 35 from the north will be realigned to the west to connect to Hwy 7 with Kent Street realigned to the north to connect into Hwy 35. INFO MTO INFO • MTO also confirmed it plans to close the existing Colborne Street intersection with Hwy 7, and to realign Colborne Street to the south to intersect the highway at Monarch Road. MTO indicated that Colborne Street may need to be extended across the highway to Elm Tree Road in the future and that this should be considered in the TMP. UEM Page 2 of 3 Meeting Minutes City of Kawartha Lakes Transportation Master Plan No. Agenda Item • MTO was surprised that a widening of Hwy 35 north from Colborne Street to Thunder Bridge Road to four lanes was not identified in the TMP findings. UEM will review this again. Action by UEM • MTO advised that it has EA clearance for the widening of Hwy 35 from 4km south of Hwy 7 to Hwy 115. This widening will include a high standard divided arterial cross section similar to that used for Hwy 115. INFO 4. UEM confirmed that results of its further review will be vetted with MTO prior to being finalized. All communications to be forwarded through Cheryl Tolles. UEM 5. MTO indicated that available planning reports will be forwarded to UEM in approximately one week. MTO 6. Next Meeting To be determined Meeting adjourned at 11:00 am.

Page 3 of 3 Meeting Minutes City of Kawartha Lakes Municipal Master Plan Subject: Meeting with Representatives of GO Transit and Metrolinx Date/Time: February 25th, 2010 / 1:00 pm Location: Metrolinx Offices, 9th Floor, 20 Bay Street, Toronto Present: Distribution: Briana Illingworth Andrew Hope Karen Woo Jeff Bateman Metrolinx Metrolinx Metrolinx GO Transit Wayne Wood Sean Norman UEM UEM UEM to distribute draft copy of Intermunicipal Transit Assessment to all present for review and comment The following summarizes the discussion at the meeting and action items arising from the meeting: No. 1. Agenda Item Welcome and Introductions Action By INFO W. Wood provided a general overview of the Growth Management Strategy and Municipal Master Plan project with specifics provided in regard to the Transportation Master Plan component. W. Wood also discussed the EMS project which is currently underway in the City of Kawartha Lakes 2. Commuter Rail Link to Peterborough Metrolinx representatives confirmed that a feasibility study for a commuter rail link to Peterborough has been completed. In February 2010, the study was submitted to the Federal and Provincial governments for consideration. Further: • • • Metrolinx was responsible for completing the Study and was not the driving force behind the Study Metrolinx has fulfilled its obligations under the Terms of Reference The proposed route (along the existing Havelock subdivision) would see a single stop in the City of Kawartha Lakes (Pontypool) INFO Meeting Minutes City of Kawartha Lakes Municipal Master Plan • • • 3. Metrolinx made no assumption on a potential service provider (i.e. Go, VIA, or other private service provider) No decisions have been made about next steps Given the amount of upgrades, approvals, and detailed designs required, several years of work would be required before the line could be operational GO Bus Service to the City of Kawartha Lakes INFO J. Bateman from GO Transit confirmed that there is currently no GO Bus service to the City of Kawartha Lakes. However a park-and-ride lot was recently constructed south of the City (at 115 and 35) along the Peterborough GO Bus line. This provides some access for residents of the City to GO services. J. Bateman indicated that GO Bus service to the City (specifically Lindsay) is likely only in the longer term planning horizon (i.e. beyond 5 years). The introduction of this service could be encouraged by the expansion of intramunicipal transit within the City. 4. Intermunicipal Transit Assessment UEM UEM to provide draft Intermunicipal Transit Assessment to Metrolinx and GO Transit representative prior to finalization (n.b draft copy was provided by UEM, comments and suggestions were made by Metrolinx/GO and incorporated into final version) Meeting adjourned at 2:00 pm. These minutes were prepared by Sean Norman and are based on an interpretation of the items discussed during the meeting.
