MEETING: GENERAL COMMITTEE

REPORT: RD-03-11

DATE: JANUARY 24TH, 2011

SUBJECT: PUBLIC ACCESS DEFIBRILLATOR (PAD) RENEWAL

SUGGESTED MOTION:

THAT we renew the agreement with Simcoe County Paramedic Services for the Public Access Defibrillator (PAD) housed at the Ramara Centre.

BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION:

It is time again for the annual renewal of the Township's agreement with County of Simcoe Paramedic Services for the defibrillator housed at the Ramara Centre. There are 3 options indicated in the Annual Fee Schedule. I recommend that we proceed with Option A at a cost of $300 which will cover 1 training session, recovery of any products that need to be replaced on a cost recovery basis, loan of equipment if being used or repaired and monitoring of the unit by the PAD program coordinator.

A letter of understanding (attached) and payment must be forwarded to the Simcoe County Paramedics upon agreement.

ALTERNATIVES:

That we not renew the agreement at this time.

STRATEGIC ISSUES:

The Strategic Issue that applies would be Safety and Security - To protect the lives, well being and property of our citizens with comprehensive and efficient protective, emergency and health related services for the betterment of the community. With the availability of the unit and trained staff the chance for response to an emergency situation is greater for the residents and patrons of the Ramara Centre.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

With the recommendation to choose Option A, $300.00 would be the base cost in the agreement.

MEETING: GENERAL COMMITTEE

REPORT NO: WD-02-11

DATE: JANUARY 24, 2011

SUBJECT: 33 OLD INDIAN TRAIL - ENCROACHMENT

SUGGESTED MOTION:

THAT the Township of Ramara enter into an encroachment agreement with the owner(s) of 33 Old Indian Trail to facilitate the building of a double car garage.

BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION:

Correspondence was received from the owner of 33 Old Indian Trail, dated December 10, 2007, asking the Township to release the drainage easement. The letter stated the reason for the request was for the addition of a double garage and that the owner would be willing to assume all Township costs associated with the release.

Staff prepared a report for the February 11,2008 General Committee meeting recommending "That the Township not release the 10 foot drainage easement at 33 Old Indian Trail, Lot 159, Plan M-934." This recommendation was adopted by Council on March 3, 2008.

On April 19, 2010, Council received a subsequent letter, dated March 29, 2010, from the owner of 33 Old Indian Trail re-requesting the release of the easement. The letter was received and forwarded to staff for a report.

The property in question has a 3 meter drainage easement on the east side of the property. The easement is entirely within the property lines of Lot 159, 33 Old Indian Trail and not split between properties.

The subdivision agreement stipulates drainage easements on all lots. The easements were put in place to divert road drainage to the canals.

On this lot, the elevation of the easement is higher along the mid-point. This causes water to flow toward the lagoon on the back half of the easement and to flow toward the roadside ditch at the front of the property.

The property on the east side, lot 158, is lower at the front than Lot 159, Any changes to the lot elevations without a drainage easement in place may cause water to flow across the front of the adjacent lot.

Page 17: THE CORPORATION OF THE TOWNSHIP OF RAMARA Documents/Agendas and Minutes/2011/2011-01... · 2011-01-24  · A well-connected trail network provides both health and economic benefits

In 2008, Dave Stephen, Manager of Environmental Services, also visited the location with regard to this request. He concurred that the drainage easement should not be released for the same reasons outlined above.

On November 8, 2010, Council received a letter from the owner at 33 Old Indian Trail requesting entering into an encroachment agreement with the Township to facilitate the building of a double car garage. Staff was requested to prepare a report.

The proposed encroachment is at the high point of the lot, will encroach five (5) feet and the owner agrees to assume all related costs, will build at the existing elevation and will not affect any existing drainage.

Staff feel this is an acceptable request.

ALTERNATIVES:

Deny the encroachment request.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION:

The owner will bear all costs pertaining to the encroachment agreement.

Previous encroachment agreements provided for a $35.00 per year fee for the consent to encroach.

STRATEGIC ISSUES:

Ensuring our drainage systems operate effectively falls under Municipal Services where we aim to provide our stakeholders with cost effective services and programs consistent with the community's financial resources, priorities and best interests.

RECOMMENDED ACTION:

That the suggested motion be adopted - that the Township enter into an encroachment agreement regarding 33 Old Indian Trail.

Respectfully submitted,

Manager

MEMO

TO: GENERAL COMMITTEE

FROM:

DATE:

RICHARD BATES, CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER

JANUARY 24, 2011

SUBJECT: ORIENTATION

Each department had prepared a 10 minute presentation for Council's orientation which I suggested would also be beneficial for the public to better understand local government. In addition, Council had requested an overview and update on Source Water Protection and the Lake Simcoe Protection Plan which we didn't get to.

If Committee concurs, I would like to schedule one presentation at the beginning of both General and Planning committee meetings if there are no deputations or public meetings. If there is a light night for Planning, I may schedule two.

Tentative suggested schedule:

Date

January 24 February 14 March 7 March 21 March 28 April 11 April 18 May 9 September 26 October 3 October 31
