At the January 9, 2018 meeting, the timing, subject matter, and length of deputations without notice, should be reviewed. Since their inception in January of 2015, they have been moved from before the meeting, to being a regular part of the agenda. The timing was original a five minute period per person, for a total of 15 minutes, with staff present. The process was to be reviewed after a one year trial, and in an effort to have a good system for both residents and efficient use of time for meetings, a discussion by Council take place and decisions made by way of resolution become part of the process.

Page 4 of 63

Mr. Mayor and members of council. We are all familiar with the work of the taxation committee and the recommendation that Mr Scandlan strongly supported and made to you in Aug 2016. I want to speak to you at what I think is the issue at an ordinary citizen level. I attended every meeting of the committee from start to finish, often past 11 pm except for one when I was out of town.

The committee started from a position of seeking a fair and equitable solution, followed the principle of equivalent service, area rated those services where agreement was reached, some easy like sidewalks and streetlights, some more difficult like a portion of firefighting, and ultimately ran aground on the last remaining service which was policing. After lengthy discussion over 2 meetings the OPP Commander declared that the service provided was essentially the same in all areas of the municipality.

This statement was not accepted by all members of the committee nor all members of council. The principal regarding policing shifted from one of service to one of cost, with some expressing the opinion that much more of the policing time and hence cost was consumed in the urban area and therefore it was justified to area rate policing because of the cost differential. To justify this argument, we must ignore the fact that cost of rural transportation, snow removal, and waste collection was 720,000$ higher than the urban cost for these services.

Taxation and Leadership

John Stinson Re: Taxation and Leadership

Page 5 of 63

I decided to compare the total cost of policing plus transport,snow removal, and waste collection using extreme assumptions, all in favor of the rural case. So using table 6-4 from the report as the base case, I made the following assumptions.

1. Assume 75% of police costs are urban, ie 3x the cost of rural police costs

2. Assume urban roads are 2x more costly than rural roads to maintain. The report uses a 1.5x factor which was obtained from the Good Roads Committee recommendations. I doubled the penalty assigned to urban roads in my assumptions.

3. The report assumes the cost of snow removal is the same per KM. for urban and rural. I assumed that the cost of urban snow removal is 1.5x more costly than the assumption in the report.


Page 6 of 63

1. Base Case: No Area Rating for Police

Cost for policing is equivalent in rural and urban area Cost to provide services in rural area for roads, snow removaland garbage exceeds urban cost by $ 720,000 Therefore the total cost to provide services would be $720,000higher in the rural area than the urban area.

2. Assumptions Case, (all in favour of rural position)ie (75% police in urban area, 2xper km urban roads,1.5x per km urban snow)

Cost for policing in the urban area exceeds rural area by $ 543,000 Cost in rural area for roads, snow removal and garbage exceedsurban cost by $ 575,000

Conclusion:Even with these assumptions the cost to provide ALL the

services of police, roads, snow removal and garbage areessentially equivalent to both the urban and rural areas

* Note this could easily be verified y town staff


Page 7 of 63

In addition, from page 5-38 of the report, the following is a direct quote, " As part of the discussion with Committee, a question was asked regarding capital spending for roads over the last 10 years. The treasurer prepared a summary of spending which is included as Appendix E. This table identifies that 75% of road capital spending has occurred in the rural area." In other words 3 times as much spent on rural roads than urban roads over a 10 year period

The reality is that as residents of Greater Napanee we all use a different selction of services and we all get pretty darn good service from many points of view, and that council and staff do a good job of deciding where and how to spend money, both in the short and long term.

So now what?


Page 8 of 63

It seems to me that as a community we are at a fork in the road, or more accurately you are at a fork in your road. You can go in a direction of trying to find if there are any means possible to achieve area rating for police services. . Then you will be faced with the difficult choice of whether to actually do area rating for police, and provide a lower tax rate for half the people in Greater Napanee.

Although the taxation committee did not achieve it's goal of providing a fair and equitable solution that you all could support, it did achieve something very important. It did a very thorough and reasonable analysis of the services provided and the cost to provide them. If you choose to area rate only policing costs, this route is guaranteed to have half of your citizens feeling that they are treated unfairly. The taxation study now makes that clear for all to see, either from a cost or services perspective.

Can you imagine a situation where the federal government decided that all the provinces west of Ontario would get a discount in their federal income tax rate of 5%, just because of their location. How would WE all feel.

So now the issue isn't really about taxation. It's about leadership!


Page 9 of 63

We all need your leadership to pull the town together. You have read the report and I think understand what the right answer is. To come to that conclusion you have to be prepared to accept 2 concepts.

First the concept that if the cost of one service is greater in the urban area, then the cost of the services that are greater in the rural area should be considered as well. Second that you will look at this issue not from an individual ward perspective but from the perspective of the whole of Greater Napanee.

Not all of your constituents had the time or inclination to attend all the committee meetings and sift through the huge final report. There are lots of people who don't understand what the rational is for equal taxation. If they do not understand the rational, then it is understandable that many do not support that point of view. Nobody wants their taxes increased, especially if they don't think it's fair. You need to help your constituents understand that this is the right thing to do, both because it is the fair thing to do, and it is for the good of the total community.

We invested a huge sum in the taxation study, more than 100,000$, plus another huge sum to develop a long term strategic plan. That strategic study has the town aspire to greatness, but also identifies the urban/rural divide as a critical challenge to overcome. Your leadership to resolve this issue fairly is critical

To Town of Greater Napanee Town Council: 15 Dec 2017

SHOULD OPP SERVICES BE AREA RATED?

On 22 August 2016, council voted to update our tax policy based on the report from the TaxPolicy Review Committee report. While council adopted the majority of the recommendationsin this report, they deferred until the end of this council’s term the decision if OPP calls forservice can be area rated within Greater Napanee. This is certainly a delicate topic. Icongratulate and encourage council to explore this issue in flail. The position of the tax reportwas that OPP calls for service should not be area rated as we all receive the same level ofservice. If there is a flaw in the logic that was presented in the 5100K report I very highlyrecommend that each council member clearly identi& what the flaw is. While exploring thissensitive topic, I also strongly encourage council to consider the significant indirect benefits theOP? provide, and not let “calls for service” (or direct benefits) dominate their discussion asSection 326 of the Municipal Act requires council to consider direct and indirect benefits.

Indirect benefits of policing make businesses feel safe to open places of work and stores wherewe can shop. Indirect benefits keep us safe when dangerous drivers are taken off the road.Indirect benefits facilitate tourists visiting Greater Napanee as they feel safe spending theirmoney in our community. Indirect benefits allow us to visit our public spaces without fear of oursafety. Indirect benefits keep us safe at night. Providing an exact measure of an indirect benefitis next to impossible, but it is clear that its positive impact in our community is enormous andmust not be underestimated. The number of people that receive an indirect benefit will outweighthe number of people that receive a direct benefit (or “call for service”) every single time.

For further consideration, Dr. Gary Slutkin is a specialist in infectious disease who hasexperience working for the World Health Organization who worked on a crime preventionproject. His claim is simple: Let’s treat violence and crime like a contagious disease. Just likethe best predictor of more flu is the presence of the flu, the best predictor of more crime is thepresence of crime. If you stop the crime, then the crime doesn’t spread and make more people avictim of crime. If you are not affected by the crime, it is because you have received an indirectbenefit of the crime not spreading to you. Dr. Irvine Wailer, the Canadian author of “SmarterCrime Control” which reviews thirty years of police and crime statistics also makes similarclaims. This means that a single OPP call for service results in the entire Greater Napaneepopulation receiving an indirect benefit of safety.

It doesn’t matter if you sit on the direct or indirect benefit side of the coin, everybody in GreaterNapanee receives the same level of service of called “safety”... and that’s why council shouldnot area rate our police services.

SPECIAL SESSION OF COUNCIL - December 18, 2017 Minutes

▪ in 2018, users will pay the same amount on an average bi-monthly water and sewer bill as they would have paid in 2008, although the rates are higher, the water usage is lower;

▪ in 2018 the Greater Napanee Utilities will be debt free as the debenture for water storage tank was paid in full at the end of 2017;

▪ the Impost Reserve balance is $1,275,892 and the Emergency Reserve balance is $255,214;

▪ a 1% rate increase is approximately $54,480 of additional revenue; ▪ it is proposed to supplement revenue with the capital and maintenance reserve

▪ to date in 2017 there are 34 new customers (28 residential); ▪ 3,266 customers, of which 88% are defined as residential; ▪ water conservation efforts by the public have had a significant impact on revenue

and appear to have stabilized; and ▪ the draft budget proposes a 1.9% increase to impost fees and a 1.9% rate

Mr. Dafoe reviewed the 2018 draft operating and capital budgets, highlighting the following:

▪ staff predict $106,710 projected year-end surplus from the 2017 budget; ▪ the proposed capital budget includes $2,300,000 for inground works for the

Dundas Street reconstruction Phase 2 project; ▪ bulk water sales are dependent on weather; ▪ Impost Reserves can be used towards the WPCP upgrade, if required; ▪ Emergency Reserve was established in 2009 after an extremely cold winter

when there were many frozen water lines that required repair; ▪ 1.9% increase will result in $103,512 in additional revenue; ▪ 2018 proposed impost rates; ▪ an explanation of the declining block rate structure and the approach to phase it

out as is being urged by the province; ▪ 2018 rate schedule summary; ▪ 2017 rate comparison with 9 area municipalities and that Greater Napanee rate

increases over the last few years have been very low compared to other municipalities; and

Council discussed the need to consider impost fees when secondary units are created, as currently there are none.

From: Minister of Infrastructure [mailto:[email protected]]Sent: December 28, 2017 3:34 PMTo: Minister of Infrastructure <Minister.M0Iontario.ca>Subject: A message from the Minister of Infrastructure / Un message du Ministre de linfrastructure

Dear Head of Council:

On December 13, 2017, the province approved a new municipal asset management planningregulation (0. Reg. 588/2017) under the Infrastructure for Jobs and Prosperity Act, 2015. It canbe found on Ontario’s e-Iaws website by following this hyperlink,

Improved asset management planning has been a key objective of the province’s MunicipalInfrastructure Strategy since 2012. Building on this objective, 0. Reg 588/2017 will helpmunicipalities take stock of their infrastructure challenges, better understand what importantservices need to be supported over the long-term, and seek new opportunities to addressinfrastructure challenges through innovative solutions.

0. Reg. 588/2017 comes after more than a year and a half of consultations with municipalities,stakeholders and the broader public. The new requirements will be introduced using a phasedapproach. Having heard from municipalities that the original timelines proposed for preparationof asset management plans did not provide adequate time for implementation, we haveincreased the phase-in period from four to six years, according to the following dates:

• January 1, 2018: Effective date of Regulation (there are no requirements that must be metat this time).

• July 1, 2019: Date for municipalities to have a finalized strategic asset management policy.

• July 1, 2021: Date for municipalities to have an approved asset management plan for coreassets (roads, bridges and culverts, water, wastewater and stormwater management) thatdiscusses current levels of service and the cost of maintaining those services.

• July 1, 2023: Date for municipalities to have an approved asset management plan for allmunicipal infrastructure assets that discusses current levels of service and the cost ofmaintaining those services.

• July 1, 2024: Date for municipalities to have an approved asset management plan for allmunicipal infrastructure assets that builds upon the requirements set out in 2023. Thisincludes a discussion of proposed levels of service, what activities will be required to meetproposed levels of service, and a strategy to fund the activities.

We have also addressed other important feedback heard during consultations, by:

• Removing the requirement for a licensed engineering practitioner to endorse completedasset management plans; and

• Reducing the level of detail required under the financial planning aspects of the regulation.

During our consultations, we also heard that it is important to align the new asset managementplanning regulation and the asset management planning requirements under 0. Reg. 82/98 to

17-12-28 Minister of Infrastructure Correspondence Re: New Municipal Ass... Page 22 of 63

the Development Charges Act, 1997. In response to this feedback, an amendment has beenmade to 0. Reg. 82/98 to provide that on July 1, 2024, the sections of this regulation that set outthe content for asset management plans in respect of transit services will be repealed. After thisdate, the asset management plan content requirements in respect of transit services in supportof development charge by-laws will be found in 0. Reg. 588/2017. The repeal of the provisionsin 0. Reg. 82/96 has been post-dated to align with the date of full phase in of the requirementsin 0. Reg. 588/2017. The requirements in 0. Reg 82/98 will continue to apply until July 1, 2024to municipalities that are preparing asset management plans to support a development chargeby-law in respect of transit services.

I also wanted to advise that the ministry is planning to collect information from municipal assetmanagement plans, such as levels of service and financial planning information, but thisinformation collection has not been set out in the regulation. We continue to work with ourpartners at the Ministry of Municipal Affairs to plan for the collection of this information throughthe Financial Information Return. We are proposing that this information would be collectedstarting in 2025 (one year after the final requirements of 0. Reg. 588/2017 are phased in). Afterthe initial submission in 2025, municipalities would submit asset management planninginformation every time their plan is updated (at least every 5 years). More information will beprovided on the ministry’s proposed data collection processes in 2018.

Lastly, we heard that many municipalities will need additional support to help withimplementation of 0. Reg. 588/2017. To address capacity concerns, we will be providing up to$25 million over the next five years in dedicated funding for asset management planning toolsand supports. This funding will be targeted to build municipal capacity through coaching andcommunities of practice, as well as support to get planning activities done (e.g. conditionassessments) in small communities. More details will be provided in 2018.

0. Reg 588/2017 will provide a strong basis for improved asset management planning and setthe stage for advancing Ontario’s Municipal Infrastructure Strategy as we work together toaddress municipal infrastructure challenges collaborativety. If you have any questions, pleasecontact us by emailing MunicipalAssetManagementontario.ca.

Dear Mayor Gordon Schermerhorn:

Every February Heart & Stroke celebrates Heart Month by holding its Canvassing Campaign. During this month, nearly 90,000 volunteers participate across all provinces in Canada. They selflessly brave the cold and give their time by canvassing in person and online to collect donations to help us further our mission – fund breakthroughs to prevent disease, save lives, and promote recovery. This year Heart Month will focus on sharing the signs of heart attack.

Since our founding in 1952, Heart & Stroke funded research has been the engine driving relentless progress in heart disease and stroke prevention and care across Canada. Over the past six decades, the generosity of our donors has enabled us to invest $1.45 billion into life-saving research – research that has revolutionized the prevention and treatment of heart disease and stroke. The impact of these advances has been extraordinary, such as a 75 per cent reduction in the rate of death from heart disease and stroke. Despite that remarkable progress, our work is more urgent than ever because heart disease and stroke are the #1 killer of women globally, yet only one fifth of women in Canada identify this as their biggest health concern.

As a volunteer-based health charity, we strive to tangibly improve the health of every Canadian family, every day. February is recognized as Heart Month in Canada and the Heart & Stroke Belleville/Kingston and Surrounding Area office respectfully requests your proclamation of February 2018 as Heart Month in the Town of Greater Napanee. I would be grateful to receive notification of approval of this proclamation. To this end, I have enclosed a draft ‘Proclamation’ for your reference. If I may provide any additional information, please contact me at your convenience. I can be reached by email at [email protected] or 613-384-2871. Sincerely,

While reviewing information regarding Resolution 371 /16 and consulting with othermunicipal stakeholders, the Province announced its intention to pass a new PoliceServices Act. This legislation will change the way municipalities interact with the OntarioProvincial Police and could create additional costs for municipalities in proactive policingmatters. Preparing an appropriate correspondence to the Province requiredconsideration and discussion of the future impacts of these legislative changes.

Staff have had discussions with other municipal CAO’s, staff within the OPP, and theGreater Napanee Police Service Board in developing this information. It should benoted that the majority of legislative changes will come from regulations expected to bedeveloped during 2018. It appears that many governance changes may not take placeuntil 2019.

I trust the attached questions, if answered by the Province, will provide the informationsought under Resolution 371/16 and additional clarification to legislative changes.These answers will be important considerations to assist in determining future taxationpolicies, as they relate to policing.

It should be noted that the information sent to the Province will include the Tax PolicyReport prepared by Watson and Associates for Greater Napanee Council, but thelengthy report was not included as an attachment to the Council agenda.

Town of Greater NapaneeRequest for Direction from the Provincial Government of Ontario

On Public Policy Matters Relating toOPP Police Billings and Future Policing Governance

January 2018

Summary

The nature of policing and how we look at communities of interest for policing will change with theamendments proposed to the Police Services Act. The Council of the Town of Greater Napanee isseeking direction from the Province on the following three public policy questions, so that themunicipality can act accordingly when developing local budgets and safety planning initiatives.

1. Does the Province believe municipal Councils should have the autonomy and authority toestablish local levy areas within a municipal political boundary, to reflect differences in callsfor service data?

2. Given the larger areas that detachment resources are shared over and the reduced influenceof local municipal Councils to deal with policing issues, does the Province agree that calls forservice should be billed equally within the detachment or Police Services Board area asopposed to “municipal political boundaries”?

3. Given that Community Safety Plans will attempt to establish the best way to reduce futureneeds for calls for service in a municipality and that the majority of agencies represented onmunicipal planning committees will have very broad organizational areas of influence; doesthe Province agree community safety plans should be developed for OPP Detachment Areas orPolice Services Board Areas instead of “municipal political boundaries”?

Background

Greater Napanee is a rural/urban municipality in eastern Ontario that was created by the 1998amalgamation of four townships and one Town. The former Town of Napanee was the only municipalityin the County of Lennox and Addington paying for policing at the time, so a section of the Minister’sOrder, allowed for Greater Napanee to area rate the Ontario Provincial Police contract costs. TheCouncil of Greater Napanee eventually used this authority to create a two-rate system of taxation thatwas originally based on this differential, but over time never made substantial adjustments to reflectcosting or legislative changes.

The Municipal Act grants the authority for municipalities to create variations in taxation based ondifferences of services received through localized area rates. This is common with items such assidewalks and streetlights. During a citizen committee review of our provision of services, it wasquestioned at length whether or not this variation could apply to policing (if all residents receive theservice from a single municipal wide OPP contract). A copy of the Watson & Associates Report isincluded for information. The Council passed the following resolution to further explore this issue:


RESOLUTION #371/16: Kaiser & Cole

That this new taxation policy consider ‘Method 4” of the Taxation Policy Review

Committee Final Report in so far that we take the area-rating offire services,

streetlights and sidewalks as included in the report;

And finally, that we not leave the OPP issue alone, such that we seek dialogue with the

OPP and/or the Province to find a clear and final decision as to whether or not the

‘calls for service”for the OPP can be area-rated within a given municipality; and that

we seek that decision within this term of Council;

And that the phase in period be changed to 5 years, with the first year having already been done.

Mayor Schermerhorn requested a recorded vote.

Schermerhorn

No: Councillor Lucas

Yes: 6 No: I

As a result of the recorded vote the resolution was declared CARRIED.

In 2015, after years of consultation, a new billing model for the OPP was implemented which requiresmunicipalities to pay based on a property count system for basic proactive police costs and then alsopay additionally for reactive calls for services.

Greater Napanee participated on provincial working groups that established recommendations goingforward for the new formula being used. Prior to 2015, police costing was based on a staffing approach,where a municipality paid according to the staffing requirements, needed to respond effectively todetachment workload. Under the previous formula, if a municipality had no recorded activity, they couldin theory, pay nothing toward OPP policing costs. Taken to the extreme, if there were no calls for servicein the Province, the OPP would incur no costs and have to bill nothing to municipalities. It was identifiedthat this made no practical sense. A very detailed process took place to determine, what exactly the

base cost of providing an OPP service to the Province was. These costs are shared evenly across theprovince by those that receive OPP services, based on an established number of property counts.

Beyond base costs, municipalities pay for reactive services, based on a fixed rate per classification of call.Various locations that use OPP services have diverse levels of use. The higher a municipality’s callvolumes, the larger the reactive portion of your OPP billing will be in any given year. To avoid largeswings, especially in smaller communities, a rolling average of call volumes is used. This reflected the

reality of 2015; municipalities could negotiate a contract with the OPP to receive enhanced levels ofservice or to retain the right to have a Police Services Board for their municipality. A municipality caninfluence the implementation of OPP resources through local Police Services Boards. This variableportion of the bill also reflected that municipalities had some ability to control factors within theircommunity that influence crime.

Greater Base Amount: Properties 7,641 @ 191.35 = $1,462,105

Calls

for Service: 1.1746% of all municipalities = $1,770,757

________

Base Amount: Properties 6,942 @ 191.35 = $ 1,328,352

Calls for Service: 0.6041% of all municipalities = $ 910,680


Proposed changes to the Police Services Act, are creating changes to the ability of local jurisdictions to

effectively manage the variable portion of their bill. The proposal to alter the number of Police Services

Boards to closely align with Detachment geography will reduce local representation and input in the use

of police funds raised through municipal taxation. Community Safety Plans will be required by all

municipalities but the prescriptive nature of the representation required on the oversight committees

will create an imbalance between local and regional input. These changes in the landscape of policing

could result in local municipalities being required to cover the variable portion of the OPP bill within

theirjurisdiction, but having reduced say on Police Services Boards that help implement detachment

operations. Community Safety Plans will ultimately help determine how community based programs will

be delivered to help pre-empt OPP service calls; but those plans will be developed based on regional

agency concerns rather than local municipal objectives.

Having considered these continuing changes to both the provision of service, the cost of services and

governance of policing; all Provincial Ministries having a stake in the policing portfolio need to bring

recommendations forward to answer complex but fundamental questions facing Ontario, regarding the

funding of OPP policing services.

Considering that base OPP costs are divided equally across municipal users; the particular issue that this

correspondence wishes to address is how defined an area will the Province allow a municipality or group

of municipalities receiving OPP services, to assess and tax the variable portion of the bill. It is clear from

the OPP that they have the ability to attach calls for service data to individual civic addresses. In fact,

this data is used to bill municipalities for the calls for service (variable) portion of the bill.

As an example, Greater Napanee is an

amalgamated municipality with possibly four

distinct communities of interest within it. The

communities of interest do not necessarily

follow the former municipal boundaries prior

to the 1998 amalgamation. Council has in the

past allowed for a differential in tax rates for

policing. This was based on the Minister’s

Order at the time of amalgamation and the

determination of Council in 2000 that there

was a difference in the provision of service.

The OPP provides a single service to the

municipality under a contract but various

areas within the community would have

varying numbers and types of calls for service.

Example: Billing within an area of influence

Base Amount: Properties x @ 191.84 =

Calls for Service: x% of all municipalities =

No net change to the total Municipal or

Provincial Billing


1. Does the Province believe municipal Council’s should have the autonomy and authority toestablish local levy areas within a municipal political boundary, to reflect differences in callsfor service data?

The Napanee OPP Detachment currently patrols in three different Counties, seven municipal lower tierjurisdictions and one self governed territory. Should this detachment have one Police Services Board,there may be no need for any of the individual political jurisdictions to have a contract with the OPP

unless they have service enhancements. A typical contract has little affect on the overall cost. Theproposed larger Police Services Board will be influencing the use of detachment resources, not the localmunicipality. It is unlikely in a detachment this size; the Police Services Board would have any more thanone representative from each municipal jurisdiction (if one representative per municipality is evenpossible).

Napanee Detachment Environmental ScanDetachment Overview

The Napanee Detachment provides policing servicesto the County of Lennox and Addington, TyendinagaTownship, the Town of Deseronto, and the BarrieWard in North Frontenac Township. The total area isover 300,000 square hectares with2,284 kilometres of roadway, 124 inland lakes andextensiveLake Ontario and Quinte Bay shoreline.

Napanee Detachment patrols the King’s Highway 401,from the western boundary of Hastings County, 76kilometres to the eastern boundary of Lennox andAddington, and Highway 7 across Lennox andAddington County.

The Napanee Detachment is the administrative hostclustered with the Loyalist and Kaladar satellitedetachments.

Example: Billing within a Detachment Area of influenceBase Amount: Properties within detachment y @ 191.84 =

Calls for Service: y% for a detachment of all OPP Detachments municipal workload =

Example: Billing within a Police Services Board Area of influence

Base Amount: Properties within Police Services Board z @ 191.84 =

Calls for Service: z% for a Police Services Board of all OPP municipal workload =

These examples create no change to total Provincial Billing. Municipalities could pay based on

percentage of weighted assessment of Detachment or Police Services Board total cost

2. Given the larger areas that detachment resources are shared over and the reduced influence

of local municipal councils to deal with policing issues, should calls for service be billed equally

within the detachment or Police Services Board area as opposed to “political communities of

interest”.


The proposed amendments to the Police Services Act requires all lower tier or single tier municipalities

to develop a Community Safety Plan. The purpose of these plans is to develop strategies to influence the

requirements for future reactive policing in a positive manner and as a result, reduce the numbers of

calls for service. However, when considering the operational area of the Napanee Detachment, can the

OPP effectively and efficiently operate in a manner that can respond to potentially eleven vastly

different community safety plans? (assumes the 3 upper tiers also wish to voluntarily develop plans as

opposed to sitting on a number of lower tier processes.)

The other issue with community safety plans is the Police Service Act is prescriptive in representation

required on committees to develop these plans. Other than the OPP, consider two additional members

of Greater Napanee’s potential committee. The Kingston, Frontenac and Lennox and Addington Health

Unit has a jurisdiction covering two Counties. Their staff could potentially sit on nine different

committees. As an organization, they will want to have a common set of goals and vision. This means

that the Greater Napanee (16,000 population with four potential communities of interest internally)

plan will have to reflect needs from across two counties and a city of 160,000 people. How reflective

will this be of local social issues affecting specific policing issues?

The Algonquin and Lakeshore District Catholic School Board would have representation on the

community safety planning committee and their operational jurisdiction is very wide reaching. They only

have one elementary school within Greater Napanee but their vision and mission would include

community influences from the diverse communities they serve. This further reduces the ability for local

issues to be specifically addressed in the plan.

Operational effectiveness of an OPP Detachment deserves fair consideration. It is possible that the

Napanee Detachment of the OPP will have to operationally administer up to eleven community safety

plans having a great deal of overlap in regional attendees at committee meetings. This would in effect

re-create the workload that is proposed to be eliminated, by decreasing the number of Police Service

Boards within a detachment. This could also further increase political involvement in detachment

operations, as Community Safety Plans might be seen as an opportunity for local Council to dictate

department resources. This could blur the line between Council and Police Service Board functions.

If the general thought process is that crime prevention cannot be addressed within isolated pockets of

geography and requires much broader social changes to effect future policing needs; then the Province

may need to consider the size of geographical boundaries that make sense for dividing reactive policing

costs.

3. Given that Community Safety Plans will attempt to establish the best way to reduce future

needs for calls for service in a municipality and that the majority of agencies represented on

municipal planning committees have very broad organizational areas of influence; should

community safety plans be developed for OPP Detachment Areas or Police Services Board

Areas instead of “political areas of influence”?

The Council of the Town of Greater Napanee respectfully requests answers to these three questions

prior to the municipal elections to be held in 2018. This information is vital for the newly elected Council

to effectively make determinations on budget taxation policy, crime prevention strategies and future

OPP contract negotiations. When responding, the Province may wish to consider that a single approach

to each answer may not work in all regions of Ontario. Some flexibility at the local level may be required.

Greater NapaneeStaff Report to Council GREATER FOR MANY REASONS



Prepared By: Mark Day, Deputy CAOffreasurerJill Drew, Tax Clerk

Presented By: Mark Day, Deputy CAOlTreasurer

Re: Unsuccessful Tax Sale Properties — Old Heritage ParkSubdivision

Staff Recommendation: That Council receive for information the Unsuccessful TaxSale Properties — Old Heritage Park Subdivision;And further that Council approve option 3) and that the properties be declared surplusonce vested by the municipality and advertised for sale;And further that Council approves that any future sale proceeds relating to theseproperties be applied to general operating revenue and transferred to our Allowance ofUncollectible Accounts and our Assessment Appeal Reserve.

Financial Implications:

As per the attached Schedule “A” the total tax adjustment is $1,307,150.27 with theTown of Greater Napanee’s portion representing $1,084,331.57. Staff recommendthese amounts be covered using our Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts, ourAssessment Appeal Reserve and/or our prior years Unrestricted Surplus. Further detailswill be presented after 2018 budget deliberations based on consultations with ourauditors.

It is expected that any future proceeds generated from the sale of these properties willhelp offset these adjustments and be transferred back to our Allowance for UncollectibleAccounts and our Assessment Appeal Reserve to replenish these accounts.

Tax sales were held for the properties listed in Schedule “A” on April 14, 2016. Therewere no successful bids received. Because of the unsuccessful tax sale, we havebasically four options:

1) Attempt to re-advertise the properties for tax sale within two years;2) Write-off a portion of the taxes to reduce the cancellation price and register a

new Tax Arrears Certificate and repeat the entire tax sale process;3) Carry out due diligence inspection of the property prior to registering a notice of

vesting with the view to resell the property at whatever price the municipalitywishes;

4) Do nothing and let the taxes accumulate in hope that at some point marketconditions will make the property more marketable for the owner.

Discussion:

The properties listed in Schedule “A” once formed part of the old Heritage ParkSubdivision. Numerous discussions were held with MPAC (Municipal PropertyAssessment Corporation) on how to proceed to get the properties listed consolidatedand ready for tax sale process.

Staff recommend that Council proceed with option 3) above and register a notice ofvesting with the view to resell the property at whatever price the municipality wishes. IfCouncil approves this approach, at a future meeting, Staff will present to Counciloptions on how to proceed with the future sale of the listed properties.

Discussion:

The properties listed in Schedule “A” once formed part of the old George Lyons Motorsproperty.

Since this property used to part of an old gas station and car dealership, there isuncertainty as to the condition of the property. Staff recommend that an environmentalassessment be conducted to determine the best options for the property. Once theresults of the environmental assessment our known, Staff will be in a better position tobring forward to Council a report with options.

Greater NapaneeStaff Report to Council



Prepared By: Mark Day, Deputy CAOlTreasurerJill Drew, Tax Clerk


Re: 2018 Pending Tax Sale Properties

Staff Recommendation: That Council receive for information the 2018 Pending TaxSale Properties report.


Financial imphcations will be known after the tax sales have been conducted. Reportedcancellation prices are subject to adjustments during the sale process. A successfulbidding process would result in sale proceeds equalling or exceeding the finalcancellation price. Staff will report to Council options after the tax sale process has beencompleted for the properties listed in Schedule “A” —2018 Pending Tax Sale Properties.




Financial Services - 2018 Pending Tax Sale Properties Page 46 of 63


The Tax Sale process is our best tool in trying to collect unpaid taxes. The Tax Saleprocess is a very restrictive process that is regulated by the Municipal Act. Recently,changes were brought forward by Bill 68, Modernizing Ontario’s Municipal LegislationAct, 2017. These changes have now been proclaimed and came into force on January1, 2018. These changes will soon be shown on e-Laws. Some of the highlights of thesechanges that have Tax Arrears Certificates registered after January 1, 2018 include:

> More options for advertising tax sales;Cheques certified by a credit union are acceptable in tax sales;

> Extension agreements do not have to be authorized by a by-law;> Expedited tax registration and tax sale for cancelled corporate properties> Municipalities will not be able to apply for payments out of court for funds that

were more than the cancellation price.

Moving forward, Staff will continue to monitor the effect of these changes andimplement them in our procedures.

Discussion:

Staff have made a concerted effort to collect our outstanding taxes through the Tax Saleprocess. We have concentrated on properties that have had large outstanding balancesand have been in the Commercial, Industrial and/or Vacant Land categories.

Personally, I would like to thank our Tax Clerk, Jill Drew for all her effort and duediligence in moving these properties through the process to advance our corporateobjectives. Each file is unique, and time consuming, that create challenges in thecollection process.
