Dear Mayor and Council
Re: 2018 National Public Works WeekMay 20 — 26, 2018"The Power of Public
Since 1960, public works officials in Canada and the United States have celebratedNational Public Works Week. This annual observance, which takes place during the thirdfull week in May, is designed to educate the public regarding the importance of ournation's public infrastructure and services. It serves, moreover, as a time to recognizethe contributions of public works professionals who work in the public interest to build,manage and operate the essential infrastructure and services of our communities. Theweek is organized by the Canadian PublicWorks Association (CPWA) and the AmericanPublicWorks Association (APWA)and is being celebrated for its 58”‘year in 2018.
The theme for the 2018 National Public Works Week /5 "The Power of Public Works. ”
This theme gives voice to the impact the many facets of public works have on moderncivilization. From providing clean water to disposing of solid waste, to building roads andbridges or planning for and implementing mass transit, to removing snow on roadwaysor devising emergency management strategies to meet natural or manmade disasters,public works services determine a society's quality of life.
As a steward of your municipality's public interest, we appeal to you to lend yoursupport to our efforts by issuing a proclamation of?cially recognizing May 20-26, 2018as National PublicWorks Week. Enclosed for your consideration is a draft proclamation.We hope to have all proclamations in our possession by April 13, 2018.
Together, the more than 30,000 members of CPWA and APWA in North America design,build,operate, and maintain the transportation, water supply, sewage and refusedisposal systems, public buildings, and other structures and facilities essential to oureconomy and way of life. Their dedication and expertise at all levels of government are acapital investment in the growth, development, economic health—and ultimate

Report
To: Mayor and Council
From: Jamie Doering
Date: March 27, 2018
Subject: By-Law 15-2018 Speed Limit
Recommendation
That Council rescind By-Law 70-2017,
And, furthermore, that Council approves By-Law 15-2018 to authorize speed limits within the Township of Greater Madawaska.
Background
The Speed Limit By-Law was adopted by Council in November 2017. Schedule "A" is a list of Township Roads and their Speed Limits.
Discussion
As discussed at the March 12, 2018 Council meeting the request is that Barrett Chute Road - from Calabogie Road to 3.4 Km South, the speed limit be reduced from 60 km/hr to 50 km/hr. There is a lot of traffic on this road and by reducing the speed limit on that section, the construction costs for the realignment of Barrett Chute Road in 2019, will be reduced.

April 3, 2018 Regular Council
Report
To: Mayor and Council
From: Jamie Doering
Date: March 6, 2018
Subject: Engineered Drawings For A Sand Shed in Calabogie
Recommendation
That Council approve proceeding with engineered drawings for a sand shed located at 12470B Lanark Rd, at a cost of $5,000.
Background
The Public Works Garage is located at 12470B Lanark Rd. The Municipality has no sand shed for the storage of winter sand for road activities in the winter months. The sand is exposed to the weather.
Discussion
With the sand being stored outside and exposed to the elements of rain and snow, a thick layer of frost covers the sand pile. The frost causes health and safety risks. When loading the trucks with winter sand, frozen pieces get mixed in with the material that is not frozen. When applying the material to the road, frozen pieces get lodged in the conveyor, not allowing sand to come off the spinner. The operators are required to stop the truck and remove the frozen pieces allowing the sand to come out. When going up or down a steep grade, the truck has no traction causing the operator to lose control. Also, when removing material from the pile with the backhoe, an overhang of frozen material is created causing a safety hazard. The frozen overhang of material breaks loose and falls to the ground. Pictures are attached showing the overhang.
Another concern is for the safety of ratepayers that come in and get sand. The Township will mitigate this by placing a smaller sand pile off to the side for residents to access sand without the risk of anything falling on them.
People Consulted
Public Works Staff and Leonard Emon, Facilities Manager
Financial Implications
Cost of the drawings are $5,000 which will be included in the 2018 budget.

Memo
To: Mayor and Council
From: Jamie Doering
Date: March 26, 2018
Subject: Waste Diversion Rates
One of the goals in 2017 for the Township was to increase our waste diversion rate at the Township Transfer Stations.
Township household waste along with organic waste goes to Lafleche Environment in Moose Creek, Ontario. The Blue Box recyclable materials are diverted from the waste stream and taken to Beaumen's in Renfrew for processing.
Household waste coming to the transfer station in 2017 was reduced by 23% from 2016. I believe this was in part due to a large business in the Township no longer bringing their household waste to the Township Transfer Stations.
The Township diverted 5% more Blue Box materials out of the waste stream in 2017, compared to 2016.
The Blue Box Diversion Rate has gone from 46% in 2015 to 51% in 2017.

Report
To: Mayor and Council
From: Luke Desjardins
Date: March 27, 2018
Subject: By-Law 11-2018 Transfer of Old Addington Road to Joseph McMahon and By-Law 14-2018 Acquisition of portion of Church Street
Recommendation
That Council declares as surplus a portion of the former public highway known as Old Addington Road and located in Lot 10, Concession 3, in the geographic Township of Griffith;
And that Council approves By-law 11-2018 to stop up, close, and transfer said road allowance to Mr. Joseph McMahon;
And that Council approves By-law 14-2018 to acquire and assume as a public road that portion of Church Street which encroaches onto Mr. McMahon's property.
Background
Joseph McMahon, and his lawyer David Stewart, contacted the Township regarding a portion of Old Addington Road which exists on the McMahon property and is in the Township name. Old Addington Road no longer exists in this location and the owner wishes the lands be transferred from the Township to himself. Other sections of the former Old Addington Road were closed by By-law 19-80.
Mr. McMahon has seen to the preparation of the attached survey (49R-19097). Part 2 on the survey is the remnant portion of Old Addington Road. As well, part 4 on the survey is an encroachment of Church Street onto Mr.McMahon's property.
Discussion
By-law 30-2016 Sale and Disposition of Road Allowance, specifically excludes lands that were former highways from the procedures of that by-law, therefore no advertisement or public notice has been recommended.
People Consulted
David Stewart, lawyer for the applicant, CAO, Councillor Hunt.
Financial Implications
It is recommended that the Township cover the cost of any transfer and registration which is anticipated to be less than $2000.

Background Under section 6 of By-law 14-2016 (Noise By-law), No person shall conduct or permit a Special Event without a permit issued in accordance with the By-law. A Township permit must be held prior to the holding of a special event. A Special Event means an exhibition, concert, festival and other organized amusements held for profit or otherwise at which one hundred people or more attend. Calabogie Motorsports Park (CMP) has applied for permits for the following special events:
1. Vintage Road Racing Association (VRRA) to be held from Friday, June 22nd, 2018 through to Sunday, June 24th, 2018.
2. Vintage Road Racing Association (VRRA) to be held from Friday, July 27th, 2018 through to Sunday, July 29th, 2018.

April 3, 2018 Version 1
Regular Council
As per 2016 and 2017, CMP has applied for four Special Event permits for the upcoming race year.
The applications indicate that noise from the events will be below 65 dBA as required by the special event permit under the Noise By-law. The timing and duration of the events will comply with the By-law.
Noise testing for each of the events will be conducted by Township staff on a minimum of one day per event.
As a note, the application for the Ted Powell event for Saturday, August 25th stated a start time of 8:00 a.m. The applicant was informed that the Noise By-law stipulates a 9:00 a.m. start time for special events. The application was then amended but the applicant projected a clear preference to begin the event at the earlier start time, in part so it would end earlier in the day. This may warrant future discussion between the Township and track operators.
People Consulted
None.
Financial Implications
An application fee of $100 per event ($400 total) has been submitted along with the applications.

Report
To: Mayor & Council
From: Allison Holtzhauer
Date: March 23, 2018
Subject: Policy 2-35 Hours of Work and Overtime
Recommendation
That Council approves Policy 2-35 Hours of Work and Overtime dated March 12, 2018, as presented.
Background
As per the report prepared by the Public Works Manager regarding Work Plan and Planning, with staff supporting each other in the Public Works Department in all ends of the Township and due to the vastness of the Township, a significant amount of time can be spent in transit thereby reducing the number of hours in a day actually spent maintaining the roads.
Discussion
The proposed wording in the attached policy would provide the Public Works Manager with the opportunity to have his staff work longer days and less time travelling to job sites. As part of the revisions to the policy the Manager would advise Council when the hours shift from 8 hour work days to 10 hour work days.

News Release
Ontario Supporting Municipalities to Ensure Safe Transition to Federal Cannabis Legalization March 9, 2018
Province Also Investing in Police Training, Investigations, and Public Education Ontario is stepping up support for municipalities and law enforcement to help ensure communities and roads are safe in advance of the federal government's legalization of cannabis.
The province will provide $40 million of its revenue from the federal excise duty on recreational cannabis over two years to help all municipalities with implementation costs related to the legalization of cannabis.
In addition, Ontario is taking further steps to ensure a safe and sensible transition for communities and people by:
Increasing the capacity of local law enforcement, including the Ontario Provincial Police, by funding sobriety field test training for police officers to help detect impaired drivers
Creating a specialized legal team to support drug-impaired driving prosecutions Increasing capacity at the province's Centre of Forensic Sciences to support toxicological testing
and expert testimony Developing a program to divert youth involved in minor cannabis-related offences away from the
criminal justice system Creating a Cannabis Intelligence Coordination Centre to shut down illegal storefronts and help
fight the unsafe and illegal supply of cannabis products Providing public health units with support and resources to help address local needs related to
cannabis legalization Raising awareness of the new provincial rules that will take effect when cannabis is legalized
federally.
Ontario's plan to create fairness and opportunity during this period of rapid economic change includes a higher minimum wage and better working conditions, free tuition for hundreds of thousands of students, easier access to affordable child care, and free prescription drugs for everyone under 25 through the biggest expansion of medicare in a generation.
QUICK FACTS
Funding will be distributed to municipalities on a per household basis, adjusted to ensure that
each municipal government receives no less than $10,000.
If the province’s portion of the revenue from federal excise duty on recreational cannabis for the
Page 55 of 92
first two years of legalization exceeds $100 million, the province will provide municipal
governments with 50 per cent of the surplus.
The Ontario Cannabis Act includes strong deterrents to discourage illegal cannabis activities,
including high fines for individuals or corporations convicted of illegal selling or distribution, tough
provincial penalties for driving while impaired and zero tolerance for young, novice and
commercial drivers who drive with cannabis in their system.
ADDITIONAL RESOURCES
Preparing for Cannabis Legalization in Ontario
QUOTES
"Today marks an important step in our commitment to deliver a safe and sensible framework for the federal legalization of cannabis. Ontario’s funding approach, developed in partnership with AMO and
the City of Toronto, will provide municipalities with access to funding in advance of federal excise revenues. Ontario will work collaboratively with municipalities and the federal government to continue gathering data on the incremental costs of implementation." — Charles Sousa, Minister of Finance "Cannabis use and distribution will be strictly regulated after legalization by the federal government. This funding will ensure that Ontario’s municipalities have dedicated resources for cannabis
enforcement. Ontario will continue working with law enforcement agencies to protect our communities from illegal cannabis activity, and to keep impaired drivers off the road. " — Marie-France Lalonde, Minister of Community Safety and Correctional Services "As federal cannabis legalization approaches, we want to ensure Ontarians are protected from the dangers of drug-impaired driving and the sale of illegal, unregulated – and potentially unsafe cannabis. That is why it is so important that our municipal and enforcement partners have the tools they need to take down illegal cannabis stores, better detect impaired drivers and prosecute offenders." — Yasir Naqvi, Attorney General of Ontario "We know municipalities will play a key role as the federal government moves forward with the legalization of recreational cannabis. That is why we engaged with municipalities early in this process. The advice received from municipal partners helped inform our decision making. Our government respects the role of municipalities in the legalization of cannabis and we know we can rely on their valuable input as we continue to navigate this process together." — Bill Mauro, Minister of Municipal Affairs
Page 56 of 92
"Cannabis legalization will impact municipal governments across Ontario and AMO is pleased that the province is providing upfront funding to help local governments respond to local needs. Legalization is new for everyone and both the province and AMO recognize the need to monitor and measure the real costs as implementation unfolds." — Lynn Dollin, President, Association of Municipalities of Ontario

Memo
To: Mayor and Council
From: Darryl Wagner
Date: March 28, 2018
Subject: Water Tanker Replacement
The 3000 gallon water tanker located in the Calabogie Fire Hall has been permanently taken out of service due to new legislation from the Ministry of Transport with regards to new measurement standards for frame deterioration.
Options to address the water tanker are:
• purchase a new or used 3000 gallon tanker
• purchase a new or used tanker with less capacity
• purchase a chassis and install existing tank
• relocate the 3000 gallon tanker at the Griffith Fire Hall to Calabogie Fire Hall and purchase a smaller capacity, new or used tanker for the Griffith Fire Hall
Manufacturers have been contacted for quotes on the various options.This item will be discussed at a Fire meeting and a recommendation will be coming forward to the April 23, 2018 Council meeting.
In the interim the department is addressing the decrease in water supply by having the Griffith Fire Hall on standby.

Report
To: Mayor and Council
From: Teri McDonald
Date: March 27, 2018
Subject: Policy #3-18 Community Sign
Recommendation
That Council approve Policy # 3-18 Community Sign, as presented.
Background
The Calabogie and Area Business Association (CABA) purchased and installed a Community Sign on Calabogie Road, near the Murphy Road intersection. The sign was used as a way to inform the public of upcoming community events. When CABA disbanded, the Township took over the upkeep and updating of the sign.
Discussion
Over the years there has been an increase of requests from Community Groups, Committees and a local Church to have their events displayed on the sign. There have been instances where all events could not be displayed at the same time. This policy is to keep the Community Sign use on an equitable basis.

Page 78 of 92
MINUTES - Regular Council March 12, 2018
8.03.5 Association of Municipalities of Ontario Local Share Proposal Resolution No.42-18
Moved by Councillor Murphy Seconded by Councillor MacPherson
WHEREAS the Township of Greater Madawaska, through the Association of Municipalities of Ontario Local Share proposal will receive $843,131 in annual sustainable funding and all communities in Renfrew County will receive a total of $26,541,120 which municipalities will be obligated to invest in planned improvement of vital municipal infrastructure;
AND WHEREAS the Association of Municipalities of Ontario (AMO) estimates that municipal governments face an annual shortfall of approximately $4.9 billion dollars over the next 10 years as they struggle to maintain current services and address their local infrastructure gap;
AND WHEREAS local municipal governments simply cannot close the $4.9 billion gap using property taxes alone, as tax bills would need to double over the next decade, having an enormous negative impact on our economy, our seniors and low-income residents hardest of all;
AND WHEREAS the Local Share proposal demonstrates a dedicated 1% sales tax could generate $2.5 billion annually for municipal infrastructure and services, the Local Share proposal would help to bridge the gap, while helping municipal governments manage the pressure on property taxes;
AND WHEREAS municipal governments own more than twice as much of Ontario’s infrastructure as federal and provincial ownership combined, our roads, bridges and other assets are in need of repair and investment, needed repair and work that has been delayed because of a lack of consistent and sustainable funding;
AND WHEREAS municipal governments across the County of Renfrew and the Province of Ontario need and will continue to need a variety of dependable, multi-year and sustainable funding sources to repair, maintain and build strong communities today and in the future;
AND WHEREAS municipal governments provide services such as police, fire and ambulance services; roads and bridges, public transit, water and wastewater treatment, recreational programs, waste management, social housing, and public health, all of which is mandated by the senior levels of government in Ontario and Canada, these services are delivered while receiving only 9 cents of every tax dollar raised in Ontario;
AND WHEREAS the Canadian and Ontario governments are almost wholly dependent upon municipal infrastructure for the generation of economic activity in our communities, economic activity from which they derive tax revenue, and are reluctant to consistently and equitably invest in renewing or improving the municipal infrastructure they benefit from utilizing;
Page 7 of 16
Page 79 of 92
MINUTES - Regular Council March 12, 2018
AND WHEREAS The Local Share ensures that everyone who uses municipal services - residents, businesses and tourists - helps to pay for them as they are renewed, expanded or repaired;
NOW THEREFORE Be it Resolved that Council of Greater Madawaska strongly supports the Local Share Proposal developed by the Association of Municipalities of Ontario and believes it to be crucial to the economic well being of our community as it will assist in the timely repair, replacement or renewal of municipal infrastructure which is utilized daily to support the local, provincial and national economy.
AND FURTHER that a copy of this resolution be sent to the Honourable Premier Kathleen Wynne, Doug Ford, Leader of the Progressive Conservative Party of Ontario, Ms. Andrea Horwath, Leader of the Ontario New Democratic Party, to the Association of Municipalities of Ontario, County of Renfrew local municipal councils and the City of Pembroke."
