6.1 PL Report No. 12-2004 — Re: Planning Options for Industrial andCommercial Lands in Forest
At the request of Council, the Municipal Planner Dave Posliff submitted a report inresponse to issues in the community of Forest with respect to proposals and demandsfor commercial and industrial lands. There have been recent proposals for the northernpart of Forest for larger commercial parcels; however, Forest has a very limited supplyof commercial lands, particularly in the highway commercial designation. The availablelands are constrained by abutting land uses or topography and would be very difficult todevelop, especially for a large land consumer such as a car dealership or a motel. Thissituation prompted a discussion on the suitability of current land designations and theimpact on future land uses of Forest over the longer term.
After reviewing the in-depth report, Council agreed to initiate the process to declare theindustrial lands on the west side of Highway 21 "surplus to the Municipality's industrialrequirements" and invite commercial proposals from the private sector for those lands.

problems. As capacity through the newly constructed drain will increase, we North Middlesex wouldwould like to ensure that provisions forsufficient outlet protection occurs. We recommend that form ofenergy dissipater ( rip rap/rock chute) be incorporated into the design. We would like to be informed
of any subsequent meetings or design changesso
that we may follow the Perth South progress ofthe report and comment if necessary.

The Elliott -Moloy Municipal Drain is a 'tiled' watercourse. The receiving watercourse is the GoldenCreek Drain, a Class "C" drain (warm water with baitfish). It is to our understanding that no work is tobe done on, or along the Golden Creek Drain. If any work is to occur on the Golden Creek Drain we willneed to be notified as soon as possible as an Authorization Drain Maintenance will need to be issuedunder the Fisheries Act. This letter of advice is issued based upon the information as submitted to thisoffice.
In addition to the measures set out in the project proposal, the following mitigation measures, ifincorporated into the project, are intended to prevent any potentially harmful impacts to fish and fishhabitat:
i) work
shouldtake
place during periods of lowor no flow; ii) a sedimenttrap should be constructed at the outlet, and monitored through the construction period; iii) Thatprovisions for outlet protectionbe incorporated into the works. iv) that all activities, including maintenance procedures, should be controlled to prevent theentry of petroleum products, debris, rubble, concrete or other deleterious substances intothe water. Vehicle refueling and maintenance should be conducted away from thewater.
If the proposed works are carried out as described in the submission provided and if theadditional mitigation measures listed above are implemented, the proposed drainage works will not beconsideredas contravening Section35(1) of the Federal Fisheries Act. As such, an authorization underSection35(2) of the Fisheries Act shall not be necessary. However, if the scopeof works shouldchange appreciably or if the mitigation measures arenot implemented creatinga harmful alteration, disruption
or destruction of fish habitat (HADD), prosecution under Section35(1) of the Fisheries Act maybe initiated against the Municipality and
Contractor. I trust this information is clear. However, if you have anv further questions in this regard, please donot hesitate to contact our
office. Yours

Re: Second Quarter Water Report from OMI
Recommendation:
For Council Information
Report:
August 4, 2004
Although not a requirement by law we are presenting the second quarter Water Reportfor your general information. (Included separately in agenda package)
I have requested a couple of reporting changes that will help us interpret the report in a
more meaningful manner. I have also asked that the "Background Count' be shown foreach of the samples taken. And lastly I have asked that the "definitions' section be
expanded to show the acceptable levels in each category so it is evident as to which
sample was the one that produced the adverse result.
We are pleased to once again report that although there were a couple of adverse
results, the re -sampling showed there was not a problem with our water system or
supply.
These reports will be available for public viewing on the web and at the three MunicipalOffices.

DCS Report No. 49-2004 August 11, 2004
To: Mayor Cam Ivey and Members of Council
From: Paul Turnbull Director of Community Services
Re: Environmental Assessments — Proposed Pinery Forcemain and Grand Bend
Lagoon expansion
Recommendation:
That Dillon Consulting be engaged to carry out the Class EA study for the
Forcemain and Pump Station for the Pinery and for the proposed expansion of
the Grand Bend/South Huron Sewage Treatment facility as outlined in DCS
Report No. 49-2004.
Report:
As requested by Council Dillon Engineering is currently undertaking the development of a
Lambton Shores Sewage Master Plan that when completed, will provide the municipality with a
valuable planning document that will allow it to more effectively assess development proposalsand the expansion of its sewage collection and treatment infrastructure. This study is
underway and is expected to be completed later in October.
This report is in regard to two other sewage related projects that need to take place within
Lambton Shores and this is an update on those projects and is intended to receive Council
authorization to proceed.
Pinery Forcemain Proiect
Lambton Shores has been in discussion with the Ministryof Natural Resources for nearly a year
now on the plan to developa forcemainto direct flows emanating from the Pinery ProvincialPark to the Grand Bend Lagoons for treatment. A Draft Letter of Intent is in progress forthis project and a cost sharing formula has been agreed upon. It has also been agreed by bothparties that Dillon Engineering would undertake an EA on this forcemain project in tandemwith an EA for the Pinery Collection System. The estimatedcost for this project is 60,
000.00and cost will be shared between the Ministry and Lambton Shores on the basis of flows. We will await the executionof the Letter of Intent before proceeding with this project. In
summary this EA process involves: 1.
Refinement of the preferred site for the pumping station and preferred route for the forcemain
as recommendedinthe Grand Bend Servicing Master Plan. 2.
Public and agency consultation will be conducted as part of the Grand Bend Servicing MasterPlan. 050
3. The preparation of an inventory of the environment potentially affected by the project.
4. Documentation of the screening process in an Environmental Screening Report.
5. Following the completion of the report a "Notice of Completion" will be issued and
circulated as required by the Class EA.
Grand Bend/South Huron Sewage Lagoon Expansion:
As Council is aware with the proposed inclusion of sewage flows from the Pinery Provincial
Park as well as flows from other areas in the Highway #21 corridor north of the Ausable River
Cut pressure will be felt to expand the Grand Bend/South Huron sewage treatment facility. In
anticipation of the Ministry withholding any consideration or approval of the Forcemain projectpending the completion of an EA relating to the expansion of the treatment facility we feel it
would be prudent to proceed with that EA in tandem with the Forcemain EA.
This EA would determine:
1. A long term service area, including Hwy 21 corridor and South Huron lands
2. Sanitary sewage servicing needs that include assessment of the impact of developmentand the Pinery on the system.
3. The approximate timing and cost of construction of upgraded facilities including cost
sharing schedules over the next 20 years.
The cost of this work will be $66,000 with completion expected by mid November 2004.
Although most of the cost of preparing the Grand Bend Sewage Treatment Facility Service
Area Master Plan will be borne by the Municipalities, some of the cost can be shared with the
service area's major customers including the Pinery, South Bend Estates and other majordevelopers.
Summary
As Council can see, Lambton Shores is taking a strategic approach to the management and
expansion of its wastewater collection and treatment infrastructure. The Lambton Shores
Sewage Master Plan will assist that effort greatly.
I am seeking Council approval, at this time, to proceed with the EA's for the Pinery Forcemain
and Grand Bend/South Huron Sewage Lagoon expansion.

Re: Tax Rate Comparison
Recommendation:
For Information Only
Report:
Attached to this report is a comparison of the tax rates within the County ofLambton and a comparison of the Lambton Shores rate to neighbouringMunicipalities.
Similar to last year, the Lambton Shores tax rate is the sixth lowest of the elevenin the County of Lambton. The positioning of the municipalities is virtuallyunchanged from 2003. The municipalities that have rates that fall below theLambton Shores rate generally have a majority of rural area and typically do notsupply costly services such as street lights and paving.
When reviewing the Neighbouring Tax Rate comparison, please keep in mindthat the ratio's are set at the County level and vary from County to County. InHuron the commercial rate is a factor of 1.1% of the residential rate, in Middlesexthe commercial rate is a factor of 1.14% of the residential rate while in Lambtonthe commercial rate is a factor of 1.67% of the residential rate. In summary thecommercial rate is higher and the residential rate is lower in Lambton Countycompared to Huron and Middlesex Counties.
This report was to update Council on the first tier municipal rates within LambtonCounty and the surrounding municipalities.

That the request submitted by Jack Lasenby to repeal by-law 211997, passedby the Council of the Town of Bosanquet is approved, and thatall costs associated with the registration of the by-law, water line frontage
charge and the installation of a curb stop to service the property
be the responsibilityof the applicant/ propertyowner. Report:
When
the regional water line was installed in Bosanquet in the late 1990' s, many peoplewho owned vacant lots adjacent to their homes went through the process of deemingthe lots not to be in a plan of subdivision" to merge the lots together. In mostcases, the homeowner treated the lots as one large lot, and did not see the valuein receiving two water connections. Such was the case with lots 14 and 15, Plan512. Lot 14 had a house, and Lot 15 was vacant. The
owner is now interested in selling the properties individually, and has asked Councilto repeal By-law2-1997. With the repeal of the by-law, the lots will revert backto their original dimensions. No additional buildings were constructed after the lotswere "deemed" therefore; there should not be an issue of insufficient setbacks fromlot lines. As
noted above, the vacant lot did not pay the frontage charge associated with the waterlineinstallation, therefore, before water can be supplied to this property, the waterconnection fee, and any costs associated with the provision of a curb stop for theproperty will need to be paid. This should be noted on any zoning reports or tax certificatesissued for the property. In
addition to those costs, all costs associated with the registration of the by-lawin theRegistry Office in Sarnia would be the responsibilityof the property owner. Respectfully
ubmitted, Carol McKenzie
