b) LSRCA Stories of Lake Simcoe: Science to Action General Manager, Integrated Watershed Management, Ben Longstaff, noted that as Board members are aware, reporting on the health of Lake Simcoe, along with protecting and restoring the lake, is an important part of the work undertaken by LSRCA. It demonstrates our commitment and allows us to share results for residents and interested stakeholders. The need was identified to share this information with non-technical yet engaged groups, residents, municipal staff, etc., and a unique approach to story telling through on a web-based tool was created. Communications Specialist, Nancie Knight, who led this initiative, shared this new product with Board members, noting this story series was created to inform, engage, and empower our local environmental groups and partners. This tool was selected so the already engaged audience could become more informed and use the information to take action in their own communities. The project team of GIS, Forestry, Restoration, Integrated Watershed Management and Communications worked collaboratively on this initiative. Ms. Knight took the Board through an online tour of the webpage.

Staff Report No. 33-20-BOD Page No: 1 of 6 Agenda Item No: Vb) BOD-08-20
TO: Board of Directors FROM: Katherine Toffan, Manager Finance DATE: July 16, 2020
SUBJECT: Second Quarter 2020 Financial Report & Year End Forecast
RECOMMENDATION: THAT Staff Report No. 33-20-BOD regarding LSRCA’s Second Quarter
Financial Report and Year-End Forecast for the period ending June 30, 2020 be received; and
FURTHER THAT Staff be directed to use deferred revenues from
prior years to fund 2020 AOP items where needed; and FURTHER THAT Staff be directed to use the Rate Stabilization
reserve to fund COVID-19 related expenditures from March through December 31, 2020.
Purpose of Staff Report: The purpose of this Staff Report No. 33-20-BOD is to provide the Board of Directors with a summary of financial activities for the period ending June 30, 2020, as they relate to the 2020 budget approved by the Board on April 3, 2020. Staff have also used this report to forecast, at a corporate level, the estimated year-end financial position of LSRCA, along with high level issues and trends that staff will be observing through the end of the year. Background: The Budget Status Reports have been developed for the use of the Board and management, use the same format as the approved budget, and provide a status update on the programs and projects that fall under LSRCA’s seven service areas: Corporate Services, Ecological Management, Education & Engagement, Greenspace Services, Planning & Development Services, Water Risk Management and Watershed Studies & Strategies. Issues:
The Corporate Budget Status report attached in Appendix 1 presents a deficit position of ($50K) on June 30, 2020. The drivers of this deficit are outlined in the table below:
Page 11 of 200
Staff Report No. 33-20-BOD Page No: 2 of 6 Agenda Item No: Vb) BOD-08-20
Staff have conducted a program and project review and forecast at Q2 through year end and have identified variances that will impact LSRCA’s year-end financial position. Summary of Financial Position on June 30, 2020 by Harmonized Service Area
Surplus/ (Deficit)
Drivers
Corporate Services (6) YTD shortfall in overhead revenue
Ecological Management (55) Spring tree planting and bulk seedling sales
Greenspace Services 9 Surplus from rental income on Aurora and Stouffville rental properties
Planning & Development Services
2
YTD small surplus from reduced discretionary spending
Overall Corporate (Deficit) on June 30 (50)
Relevance to Authority Policy: In keeping with LSRCA policy, this staff report has been prepared to provide a Q2 financial update on the current overall financial position, project expenditures, opportunities and risks as they relate to the 2020 approved budget, as well as highlight variances identified through the year end forecast. Impact on Authority Finances: a) Revenues Revenues generated are lower than anticipated on June 30. Main operational drivers of this are in our Tree Planting, Education and Planning programs. Other revenues budgeted in this area are Offsetting funds that cover Capital Projects which have also been slower to materialize at this time. COVID-19 is the main driver of the delay and loss of revenue at Q2. As the Federal/Provincial and Regional governments implemented guidelines and restrictions for businesses, certain areas of LSRCA’s operations were impacted more than others. LSRCA’s forestry program postponed the Spring tree planting to Fall 2020 and Spring 2021 which affected revenues through Q2. Forestry program staff were able to work with many of their clients to secure their commitment for the 2021 Spring planting season. The impact of the school closures on the Education and Engagement programs was that fee-based revenues usually generated by Spring and Summer programming were not realized by
Page 12 of 200
Staff Report No. 33-20-BOD Page No: 3 of 6 Agenda Item No: Vb) BOD-08-20
the end of Q2. The program work that has taken place through June has been supported with levy and Foundation donations and therefore is not posting a deficit position at Q2. Planning applications received and reviewed through June 30 have been lower than anticipated which results in lower than anticipated revenues. A summary can be found in Staff Report No. 37-20-BOD, Monitoring Report – Planning and Development Applications for the Period January 1 through June 30, 2020 (in this agenda). The impact associated with this loss is being offset within the program by decreased discretionary spending and a delay in hiring a budgeted replacement FTE position. Staff have worked with the program and project managers on a year-end forecast and will continue to monitor the ongoing impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on LSRCA operations. Revenue and Fee forecasts through Q3 and Q4 will be prepared and brought to the Board of Directors in our Q3 update. b) Expenditures: While staff have been redeployed to work from home since March 17th, there have been some operational savings identified in materials and supplies, mileage, and delays in hiring some of the budgeted permanent open positions. Our Forestry program expenditures for the 1st and 2nd quarters are reflected in the deficit position of Ecological Management service area. Staff in this program started the year planning and preparing for the Spring planting program, and once the pandemic hit staff had to continue to work through winding down that program. With the loss of this revenue, these expenditures have put a pressure on the program which is also reflected in our year-end forecast. c) Timing Variances: As outlined in Appendix 1, there are some year-to-date revenue and expense variances that can be attributed to timing. Timing variances occur when expenditures have not happened yet, and accordingly recognition of the related revenue is deferred until the project work commences. Projects in some service areas had to be deferred into Q3 and Q4 due to the COVID-19 restrictions. These restrictions and deferral of work will have a greater impact on the workload of staff in Q3 and Q4 but not on the overall financial position, as these projects are covered by Special Capital, Provincial and/or Partner funding. Key areas of these variances include:
i. Ecological Management - $2.5M of projects in the Ecological Restoration program include:
• Ecological Offsetting Capital Projects
• Grassland/Meadow Restoration
• Grants to Partner/Landowners for projects
Page 13 of 200
Staff Report No. 33-20-BOD Page No: 4 of 6 Agenda Item No: Vb) BOD-08-20
Projects currently underway or wrapping up:
• Cawthra Mulock Restoration
• Luck Property Wetland Restoration
• Goodyear Farm Restoration
• Circle Park Wetland Restoration
ii. Water Risk Management - $2.4M of projects in the Water Management/ Restoration program include:
• Water Balance Capital Projects
• LSPOP Capital Projects
• Grants to Partner/Landowners for projects
Projects currently underway or wrapping up:
• York Stormwater Management – Tamarac site
• Aurora LID Monitoring
• East Holland Monitoring
iii. Scanlon Infrastructure (see Appendix 2: Corporate Services Budget Status, Facility Management program). Construction is substantially complete. The move in date has been affected by COVID-19, but staff are currently working on moving out of the temporary-leased office to save cost of leasing until they move in, post pandemic.
d) High Level Forecast to the End of 2020: The Finance department has worked with program staff to develop a high-level forecast of revenues and expenditures through the end of 2020. The COVID-19 Pandemic has affected some areas of the organization, specifically in the fee-based programs and the forecast captures this. This forecast also includes assumptions on revenues materializing in late summer and fall as some areas return to work and Provincial restrictions are lifted, redeployment of current full time staff to areas where additional assistance is needed to complete 2020 AOP items and expenditures are incurred to address safety of staff as they return to work in the field. Through working with program managers, staff are forecasting a year-end deficit position of ($211K). Following are some risks and opportunities that the Board should be aware of: i) Delays in some of the projects have led to a shortfall in overhead being charged and a
resulting shortfall of overhead revenue back to the overhead program areas. The forecasted shortfall was ($96K). Staff have taken action to mitigate this shortfall by lowering discretionary spending and redeploying staff from the overhead program areas to complete work on special projects and AOP items where outsourcing or contracts were going to be hired to complete. This has resulted in savings of $56K to bring that pressure down to ($40K). The forecast was also built with the assumption that prior year deferred revenue could be used to fund a 2020 AOP item in the Office of the CAO’s program area.
Page 14 of 200
Staff Report No. 33-20-BOD Page No: 5 of 6 Agenda Item No: Vb) BOD-08-20
ii) The forecasted reduction in Planning fees, offset with savings in delayed hiring and reduced discretionary spending in the program are forecasted to result in a deficit of about ($100K). Program management will continue to monitor the volume of applications and spending within the program to ensure that this forecast projection does not increase. LSRCA has experienced surpluses from this program in past years which were put in reserves and if needed would draw on those for this year.
iii) A shortfall from some Municipal funding of Special Capital Levy has created a pressure of
($47K) throughout some program areas. There were adjustments made to discretionary spending that resulted in savings of about $31K to reduce that pressure to ($16K).
iv) There is an anticipated pressure in the Forestry program of ($57K) being forecasted at year
end. This is mainly due to the loss of the Spring planting program. Staff anticipate a Fall planting season which will contribute to the program revenues. Management helped mitigate the loss of the revenue by redeploying staff to address the need for increased maintenance and management of the conservation areas, as well as assisting with work in the Water Science and Monitoring group.
v) Education fees for Spring and Summer programming have not materialized. There is also
uncertainty around what the Province will decide for returning to school in the Fall. To mitigate the impact of lost fees, program management has redeployed staff to help with key deliverables in other areas, specifically Climate Change and Greenspace Services. This redeployment offset the need to hire contract staff in those areas and helped relieve the pressure to the Education program. Therefore, we are not forecasting a material impact on the year-end forecast due the lost Education program revenue.
vi) There is an anticipated shortfall in our budgeted Reserve transfers to Rate Stabilization and
Asset Management for 2020. The main driver of the shortfall to Rate Stabilization is the effect of reduced interest rates being earned through the One Investment Savings program because of the COVID-19 Pandemic. The main driver of the shortfall to the Asset Management is that funding budgeted for the transfer is needed to cover additional work and expense in the information technology management program. The additional work and expense in this area is not resulting in a deficit to the program but rather shortfall of available funds to transfer to reserve.
Finance staff will continue to monitor the ongoing financial position of the organization, conduct regular updates with program managers to ensure that the Q2 forecast assumptions are still in line with the forecast, and ensure that any future Provincial decisions related to the pandemic are assessed for financial impact to LSRCA. Staff will resume the hiring of budgeted staff to ensure that program outcomes are still achieved in 2020 but only with funding that does not impact the deficit/surplus (i.e. provincial funding, service level agreements, special capital projects etc.). Staff will also conduct a Q3 review against current forecast and bring back an update to the Board of Directors in October.

TO: Board of Directors FROM: Bill Thompson, Manager, Watershed Plans and Strategies DATE: July 10, 2020
SUBJECT: Climate Change Mitigation Strategy for the Lake Simcoe Watershed
RECOMMENDATION: THAT Staff Report No. 34-20-BOD regarding the Climate Change
Mitigation Strategy for the Lake Simcoe watershed be received; and FURTHER THAT the Climate Change Mitigation Strategy be
approved.
Purpose of this Staff Report: The purpose of this Staff Report No. 34-20-BOD is to seek the Board’s approval of the draft Climate Change Mitigation Strategy for the Lake Simcoe watershed. A summary of the strategy is attached for your information and the entire strategy is available through the following link: Climate Change Mitigation Strategy for the Lake Simcoe Watershed Background: Climate projections for the Lake Simcoe watershed, developed to support LSRCA’s Climate Change Adaptation Strategy predict that average annual temperature in the watershed could increase by 5.5°C by the end of the century. However, predictions further suggest that the temperature increase could be limited to 3°C if effective action is taken to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Recognizing the importance of both adjusting to the changing climate, and taking action to minimize the change, the LSRCA Strategic Plan identified a priority action as being the development of both Climate Adaptation and Climate Mitigation strategies as companion documents. ‘Climate change mitigation’ refers to a broad suite of activities that could be undertaken to either reduce greenhouse gas emissions, or to increase their sequestration (i.e. the absorption of carbon in trees or other natural features). To assess the range of options available to LSRCA,
Page 22 of 200
Staff Report No. 34-20-BOD Page No: 2 of 3
Agenda Item No: Vc) BOD-08-20
the Climate Change Mitigation Strategy was based on an estimate of both emissions and sequestration across the watershed, with emissions estimated both geographically, and based on broad economic sectors. Further, population projections were used to estimate how emissions may change in coming years. Currently, emissions in the Lake Simcoe watershed are estimated as being 3,809,500 tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent per year, or 7.44 tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent per capita. Over 80% of these emissions were associated with transportation, home heating, and heating of buildings in the industrial, commercial, and institutional sector. However, forests and wetlands in the watershed absorb (or sequester) 20% of this amount in a year. Depending on the level of action taken to curb emissions, or increase absorption by trees and wetlands, changes in net emissions in the Lake Simcoe watershed by 2031 could range anywhere from an increase of 57% to a decrease of 19%. Recommendations for action were developed in a series of internal and partner workshops. These workshops included representatives from watershed municipalities, regional/county health units, and neighbouring Conservation Authorities, and were intended to help identify potential mitigation efforts that would both be effective, and within the conservation authority mandate. These workshops resulted in the identification of 18 recommendations, which fall under 5 goals: 1. Provide leadership in the field of climate change and carbon sequestration by continuing to
support and provide resources to our municipal partners 2. Effectively communicate the necessary information to educate and empower people within
the Lake Simcoe watershed to take action to combat climate change within their communities
3. Provide the tools and resources that will allow LSRCA and our municipal partners to apply best practices to their carbon reduction or sequestration efforts
4. Use the tools and resources to expand and build upon our collective knowledge and understanding of climate change mitigation and carbon sequestration
5. Support municipalities in incorporating carbon sequestration into community design and energy plans
The implementation of the Climate Change Mitigation Strategy will be focused and directed through an implementation plan, which will identify actions, responsibilities and timelines. The principles of adaptive management will also be applied to track the progress and effectiveness of recommendations and modify as required.

Issues: There are no issues identified with this project. Relevance to Authority Policy: The Climate Change Mitigation Strategy was identified as a priority action to support Goal Two of LSRCA’s Strategic Plan - to improve knowledge and increase certainty through excellence in research and scientific knowledge. Impact on Authority Finances: It is not expected that the implementation of the Climate Change Mitigation Strategy will have any immediate impact on Authority finances, however there is potential for the re-allocation of existing funds. External funding opportunities will be pursued to assist in the implementation of strategy recommendations. Summary and Recommendations: It is therefore RECOMMENDED THAT Staff Report No. 34-20-BOD regarding the Climate Change Mitigation Strategy for the Lake Simcoe watershed be received; and FURTHER THAT the Climate Change Mitigation Strategy be approved.

Climate Change Mitigation Strategy for the Lake Simcoe watershed
Executive Summary
Overview and Purpose Climate change is a major environmental threat currently facing society and will require local collective action in order to mitigate its potential detrimental impacts. In the Lake Simcoe watershed, increased air temperature and changing precipitation patterns are projected to have significant impacts on the ecology of the lake and watershed (LSRCA 2019). The extent of these impacts will depend on actions society takes to reduce greenhouse gases both locally and globally. Based on current efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions; for example, using public transit and carpooling as an alternative way of commuting, a changing climate could mean an increase in average annual temperature of 5.5°C. However, if we are able to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and increase carbon sequestration, the increase in average annual temperatures may only reach 3°C. Although this difference may seem small; it will greatly improve and sustain the health of the Lake Simcoe watershed. The Lake Simcoe watershed supports a variety of different land use types, the most significant of which for the purposes of the Climate Change Mitigation Strategy include urban areas (including residential, industrial, commercial, and institutional), agricultural areas (including both intensive and non-intensive agriculture), and natural heritage features. With respect to mitigating the effects of climate change, this rich and varied landscape provides opportunities to reduce emissions (e.g. urban areas) and increase sequestration (e.g. increase natural features). As growth and development proceed within the Lake Simcoe watershed, urban areas are expected to expand into the agricultural areas, further increasing the challenge of mitigating greenhouse gas emissions.
In order to engage the public and our municipal partners in taking further action to reduce emissions, as well as alter our own programs and services to better consider climate change mitigation, we recognized that a more widespread and strategic approach was required. The approach taken in developing the Climate Change Mitigation Strategy was first to develop an inventory of the greenhouse gas emissions and carbon sequestration in the Lake Simcoe watershed and then to develop scenarios of possible future emissions and sequestration, depending on levels of effort invested. Quantifying current and future watershed wide greenhouse gas emissions was used as the basis for the development of 18 recommendations for action. The next phase of the strategy will require implementing these recommendations and monitoring the results.
This Climate Change Mitigation Strategy is unique and the first of its kind as it views climate change across a watershed boundary, whereas typically, these types of strategies are specific to political boundaries. However, while watershed-wide, this strategy focuses on actions that LSRCA can undertake and recognizes that action from all sectors across all political boundaries is required.
The goal of creating this strategy is to determine what actions should be taken to be most effective considering the LSRCA mandate, and to determine how we can work together with our municipal partners and the public to decrease our carbon footprint and reduce the impacts of the anticipated changes.

Emissions Inventory and Forecast The watershed-wide greenhouse gas emissions inventory and forecast provided us with a better idea of which sectors and areas within the Lake Simcoe watershed were “hotspots” for emissions and allowed us to begin thinking about how we can better direct what is delivered in our programs and services. Using 2016 as the baseline year, the results indicate that businesses and residents in the Lake Simcoe watershed produced a total of approximately 3,809,500 tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent, or 7.44 tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent per capita. The transportation, residential, and industrial, commercial, institutional sectors produced the highest greenhouse gas emissions within the watershed and together were responsible for over 80% of the total emissions. The emissions for all sectors are generally greater in the more urbanized southern end of the watershed, and lower in the more rural northern end of the watershed. However, if we are to continue with our “Business as Usual” way of life, the anticipated growth within the watershed will undoubtedly affect greenhouse gas emissions in the watershed. An emissions forecast to 2031 was developed and predicted that with this future growth and development, total emissions within the Lake Simcoe watershed could increase 45 percent from the 2016 baseline.
Carbon Sequestration Determining the Lake Simcoe watershed’s greenhouse gas emissions inventory and forecast helped us to understand the current and future distribution of emissions across the watershed. However, it is also important to consider the critical role that natural features such as forests and wetlands play in offsetting carbon emissions, through carbon sequestration.
Research conducted in partnership with Lakehead University and the University of Toronto estimates that wetlands and forests in the Lake Simcoe watershed sequester an estimated 632,212 tonnes and 126,827 tonnes, respectively, of carbon from the atmosphere annually.
In order to develop a projection of potential future sequestration rates, two land-use scenarios were developed: a “full build out” scenario that assumes that any forest or wetland which is not protected by provincial or municipal policy would be lost to development, and a “restoration” scenario that assumes that the targets established in LSRCA’s Natural Heritage System Restoration Strategy (2018) are achieved.
Carbon Budget These estimates of carbon emissions and sequestration were compiled into a watershed-scale carbon budget, to examine which parts of the watershed are experiencing net emissions, and which are experiencing net sequestration. Projections of both emissions and sequestration were combined into two projected future carbon budgets: the “business as usual” and the “targets met”. The “Business as Usual” scenario where population growth proceeds as projected, and no specific action is taken on emissions reduction, predicted an increase of 57% in net emissions from the 2016 baseline. The “Targets Met” scenario, where population growth is balanced by LSRCA and watershed municipalities achieving their emission reduction and sequestration targets, predicts a 20% reduction in net emissions.

While sequestration is an important consideration in climate change mitigation, projected increases in greenhouse gas emissions are much greater than projected increases in sequestration. This clearly indicates that LSRCA cannot take climate action alone, and that a collaborative approach between municipalities, other government agencies and the private sector will be necessary to achieve success. What LSRCA can do, however, is optimize the carbon sequestration benefits of the work we do including increasing our focus on wetland creation, and working with municipalities to enhance urban tree canopies, particularly in new developments.
Recommendations This Climate Change Mitigation Strategy has developed a set of 18 recommendations for action under five over-arching goals. These recommendations will build upon the LSRCA’s programs and services and help us collaborate with our municipal partners and the public to further reduce the carbon footprint of the Lake Simcoe watershed. These recommendations focus on creating new and enhancing existing LSRCA programs, services and operations, as well as working with watershed municipalities to enhance urban tree canopies.
Goal 1: Leadership
Provide leadership in the field of climate change and carbon sequestration by continuing to support and provide resources to our municipal partners.
1. Continue to play a leadership role in municipal climate change working groups to help coordinate municipal climate mitigation activities and build expertise in carbon capture and sequestration in watershed municipalities.
2. Work with emerging municipalities who are net emitters to develop their capacity for climate change mitigation and carbon sequestration efforts.
3. Using LSRCA's Corporate Carbon Reduction Strategy as a guiding template, advise municipalities/organizations in the development and implementation of their own Corporate Carbon Reduction Strategies.
4. Work with municipalities to help them develop or update their trail strategies/trail master plans in order to help connect trail systems and create a stronger active transportation network within the watershed.
5. Work with the Lake Simcoe Conservation Foundation to create a fundraising program which enables donors to support projects that will offset their carbon footprint
Goal 2: Education & Communications
Effectively communicate the necessary information to educate and empower people within the Lake Simcoe watershed to take action to combat climate change within their communities.
6. Develop a Climate Change Engagement Strategy that will serve to educate LSRCA staff on our current climate change strategies, educate the public on local climate change impacts and mitigation actions, as well as engage a more diverse audience in order to leverage additional perspectives and support for programs.
7. Through the Annual LSRCA Conservation Awards, keep up to date with what community members/organizations are doing and recognize those who have gone above and beyond to help combat climate change within their community.
8. Expand current climate change educational programming to include public workshops as well as resources and tools so watershed residents can engage in climate change mitigation/carbon sequestration efforts within their homes and communities.
Page 27 of 200
9. Develop and provide climate change and carbon sequestration focused materials for teachers and students.
Goal 3: Tools & Resources
Provide the tools and resources that will allow LSRCA and our municipal partners to apply best practices to their carbon reduction or sequestration efforts.
10. Periodically update the emissions inventory, projections, and landcover mapping, while also considering emerging technologies and methodologies in order to provide an accurate accounting tool for the watershed.
11. Use LSRCA's Natural Heritage System Restoration Strategy, and data from sequestration studies, to identify areas within the watershed that are not reaching their full carbon sequestration potential, as well as additional areas that could sequester substantial carbon if restored to natural habitat.
Goal 4: Build Knowledge
Use the tools and resources to expand and build upon our collective knowledge and understanding of climate change mitigation and carbon sequestration.
12. Building off York Region's expertise in carbon capture of urban forests, expand the implementation of Urban Forest studies to other watershed municipalities. Use the results of these studies to further our understanding of the current and potential carbon sequestration in urban canopies.
13. Explore the carbon sequestration potential of grassland habitats within the Lake Simcoe watershed. 14. Research and estimate the co-benefits and value of low impact development/green infrastructure
from a carbon reduction/sequestration perspective.
Goal 5: Sustainable Communities
Support municipalities in incorporating carbon sequestration into community design and energy plans.
15. Conduct a review of municipal planning policies to identify best-in-class approaches to 'complete community' design at a local level and convene a workshop with municipal planners and climate change staff to develop template policies as necessary.
16. Promote the uptake of energy efficiency design charettes with industry partners such as developers and builders.
17. Work with others to refine the accounting of carbon sequestration by individual trees, with a long-term goal of developing a community scale carbon budget calculator that would help municipal planners and developers progress towards 'net zero' communities.
18. Support municipalities in developing or updating Green Development Standards that include carbon budgets as a consideration.

TO: Board of Directors FROM: Susan McKinnon
Manager, Budgets and Business Analysis DATE: July 16, 2020
SUBJECT: LSRCA’s 2021 Budget Assumptions
RECOMMENDATION: THAT Staff Report No. 35-20-BOD regarding the recommended
budget assumptions for the 2021 fiscal year be approved.
Purpose of this Staff Report: The purpose of this Staff Report No. 35-20-BOD is to seek the Board’s approval on the recommendations for 2021 budget assumptions for the operating and capital budget development process. Background:
Context for Recommendations: External Research and Comparators
In previous years, the Budget Committee was responsible for reviewing budget assumptions and making recommendations to the Board of Directors. Staff report 50-19-BOD, approved December 11, 2019, recommended the discontinuation of LSRCA’s Budget Committee and that budget assumptions and associated discussion be returned to the full Board of Directors.
Research and Policy Decisions Impacting Levies
The levy increase requested from our municipal partners includes salary increases due to COLA and step, inflation, investment in strategic initiatives and funding for asset management.
a) COLA and Step
Staff reached out to various municipalities and conservation authorities to gather information on projected 2021 cost of living adjustments (COLAs). The Region of York, City of Barrie and the Region of Durham are our largest municipal partners and thus were used as comparators. Each has a Canadian Union of Public Employees (CUPE) agreement with their workers and the COLA
Page 29 of 200
Staff Report No. 35-20-BOD Page No: 2 of 5
Agenda Item No: Vd) BOD-08-20
from that agreement is used as a comparator. The CUPE agreements that end in 2020 have COLAs ranging from 1.74% to 1.80%. Due to the impact of COVID-19 and end dates of the agreements, no new CUPE agreements have been negotiated or ratified yet for 2021.
Toronto and Region Conservation Authority (TRCA) and Nottawasaga Valley Conservation Authority (NVCA) are LSRCAs neighbouring authorities and are used for comparators. TRCA usually uses the City of Toronto’s agreement with CUPE 416 COLA to set their COLA assumption. The City of Toronto currently has an agreement with CUPE 416 for 2.00% until the end of 2022. NVCA generally uses the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for Ontario. They have not made a budget assumption yet but are considering a low COLA increase for 2021. The CPI for March 2020 was reported as 0.90% by Statistics Canada compared to 1.90% for March 2019.

NVCA CPI for Ontario no assumptions yet 1.90% 1.80%
b) Inflation
Staff use Bank of Canada’s inflation targets and inflation forecasts to determine inflation rates for the budget assumptions. The Bank of Canada’s 2021 Inflation target is 2.00% and the forecasted 2021 inflation rate is between 1.70% and 1.80%. c) Strategic Initiative Strategic initiatives driven out of the new strategic plan (under development) will be included in future budgets, commencing with the 2022 budget.
d) Asset Management Asset management costs will be incorporated into the 2021 budget, but the full asset management financial strategy (under development) will be put in place for 2021. The long-
Page 30 of 200
Staff Report No. 35-20-BOD Page No: 3 of 5
Agenda Item No: Vd) BOD-08-20
term funding strategy for asset management will require additional investments to address the infrastructure gap and will require Board of Directors’ approval.
Lessons Learned From 2020 Forecast
Staff will use the 2020 forecasting to assist in assumptions for the 2021 budget. The current forecast projects a minor deficit for 2020 with the main driver being COVID-19, which has impacted revenues and expenditures. LSRCA does not require additional support from our municipal partners to fund the minor deficit. A complete summary can be found in this agenda, Staff Report No. 33-20-BOD, Second Quarter 2020 Financial Report & Year End Forecast.
a) Revenues COVID-19 resulted in a loss of fees in education and tree planting, delays in fees from planning & permit applications, offsetting and a shortfall in overhead revenue to corporate services due to delays in funded projects. The 2020 forecasts indicated no change to the 2020 donation revenue from Lake Simcoe Conservation Foundation (LSCF); however, staff will continue to work with LSCF to determine the level of support that should be anticipated for 2021. Interest income is also forecasted to be significantly below budget for 2020. Staff will continue to monitor and make necessary adjustments to the budget assumptions for the interest earned on invested funds.
b) Expenditures The forecast showed a reduction in some spending due to staff working from home, delays in hiring and redeployment of staff. New costs for staff returning to work will need to be taken into consideration. Staff will continue to monitor the 2020 forecasted results for the remainder of the year and work with the Executive Leadership Team (ELT) to reflect any anticipated impacts to the 2021 budget. Issues: a) Board of Directors’ Direction Required Staff will develop the budget to meet our Annual Operating Priorities (AOPs), legislative responsibilities and our strategic plan. Staff will look for efficiencies, program reductions and review our fee schedule. Following that, staff will use these Board approved budget assumptions to build the operating and capital budgets and determine the amount of municipal investment required. With that in mind, staff request a range for the COLA and suggest a maximum cap to the levy increase to allow them to continue to work with changing municipal guidelines.

Investment in Strategic Priorities: 0.00% (2020:0.00%) b) Staff May Require Flexibility to Meet Future Municipal Targets Staff have initiated conversations with municipal partners and will continue to be engaged with them. In August, LSRCA has invited all municipal partners to participate in an on-line financial update to review guidelines and any issues arising with the development of the 2021 budget. From initial conversations, staff have learned that many budget approval dates have been pushed back and that municipalities are having difficulties establishing firm financial targets which may result in a need for them to adjust these guidelines later this year. Due to this difficulty in establishing firm targets, LSRCA will recommend a maximum increase to allow flexibility to meet future municipal targets.

Right Honourable Justin Trudeau, Prime Minister of Canada Office of the Prime Minister 80 Wellington Street. Ottawa, K1A 0A2
Dear Prime Minister Trudeau,
During the recent election campaign, both the Conservative Party of Canada and the Liberal Party of Canada committed to the re-establishment of the Lake Simcoe Clean-Up Fund.
As you know, $59 million was invested from 2007 to 2017 by the previous Conservative Government, until the fund was cancelled in 2017. During the 10 years, well over 200 projects were supported. Scientists immediately found evidence the fund was working, as phosphorous outputs were reduced, lake water quality began to improve, native fish species were breeding in the watershed – including fish that hadn’t done so in many years. The fund also helped improve shoreline naturalization and stormwater retention ponds.
This was all accomplished in collaboration with stakeholders, municipalities, conservation authorities, and just about everyone that had an interest in ensuring this beautiful watershed and important part of our eco-system was healthy and sustainable for future generations.
As local M.P.’s and Candidates, we were very pleased when Conservative Leader Andrew Scheer made restoring the Lake Simcoe Clean-Up Fund a key part of our platform in June 2019, when he announced our “Real Plan for the Environment”.
We were equally pleased when, just two days before the advanced voting started, Chrystia Freeland stood on the shore of Kempenfelt Bay with two local Liberal candidates, to announce that an elected Liberal Government would re-establish the Lake Simcoe Clean-Up Fund with an investment of $40 million over four years.
Prime Minister, we believe that communities, and indeed all Canadians, benefit when political parties agree on the importance of issues like re-establishing the Lake Simcoe Clean-Up Fund.
1a)
Page 34 of 200
Because of the clear commitment and pledge by Ms. Freeland on October 9, 2019, and on behalf of everyone in Central Ontario who has a vested interest in Lake Simcoe, we are asking that funding for the re-establishment of the Lake Simcoe Clean-Up Fund be included in the budget as soon as possible. In addition, the governance model for the fund worked very well to achieve the results it did from 2007-2017.
Considering Ms. Freeland’s announcement, we respectfully request that the governance and funding model which provided oversight and allocated money for the Lake Simcoe Clean-Up Fund be the exact same model to what was in place when you do re-establish the new round of funding you committed to. Furthermore, we would be very pleased to work with the Environment Minister and others to assist in providing information on the previous structure(s) that were in place.
We look forward to receiving your commitment, with a date that we can expect the funding to start. We will be sure to share the good news with our constituents and everyone who loves calling the shores of Lake Simcoe home.
Best Regards,

Dear Minister Wilkinson,
Re: The Pefferlaw Dam
I wish to bring to your attention an urgent matter that has recently developed within my constituency
concerning the state of the Pefferlaw Dam.
Located in Pefferlaw, Ontario within the Town of Georgina, the Pefferlaw Dam has spanned the
Pefferlaw River since 1823. It is a local landmark with considerable historical significance that
continues to bring substantial environmental, economic and practical benefits to the entire
community.
Unfortunately, the Lake Simcoe Regional Conservation Authority (LSRCA) recently determined that
there were structural and safety concerns with the Pefferlaw Dam that require it be closed. This
has prevented the installation of seasonal stop-logs, drastically affecting both the reservoir and the
river and putting the future viability of the dam into question.
I am recommending that the rehabilitation of the Pefferlaw Dam be considered for any eligible
federal funding as soon as possible. Previously, Environment Canada funded phosphorous input
reduction and shore erosion projects on the upper Pefferlaw River through the 2007-2017 Lake
Simcoe Clean-Up Fund, which would be compromised if the dam’s current state persists.
While the final costing of the required rehabilitation work is still to be determined, it is estimated to
be between approximately $400,000 and $600,000 at this time – although that may increase when
further structural examinations are conducted.
The LSRCA has committed to resuming its examination of the dam once the provincial restrictions
are lifted on these activities. In the meantime, the conservation authority has begun consultations
with the municipality and Province of Ontario about the funding implications of this project –
however, it is evident that both the ability of the Province of Ontario and Town of Georgina to fund
this unanticipated expenditure is especially constrained due to the budgetary realities of the present
situation.
1c)
Page 39 of 200
As the Government of Canada looks to stimulate economic growth and job-creation in the weeks and
months ahead as the COVID-19 pandemic is contained, community-focused infrastructure projects –
especially those with positive implications for the environment – will be critical. The rehabilitation of
the Pefferlaw Dam would be one such project.
Of course, the Pefferlaw Dam and entire Lake Simcoe watershed would also benefit from the
reinstatement of the Lake Simcoe Clean-Up promised by your Government last fall.
As you can appreciate, the Pefferlaw Dam is of great importance to the entire Pefferlaw community,
and I truly appreciate your attention to this matter.
I remain committed to working with you and our colleagues in the House of Commons to ensure that
Canadians come out of the present situation stronger than ever, whilst still ensuring that our
environment and communities are taken care of.
Yours truly,

Re: Update on Conservation Ontario’s Client Service and Streamlining Initiative – Reporting on the Timeliness of Section 28 Reviews
Dear Premier Ford:
Conservation Ontario is the network of Ontario’s 36 Conservation Authorities (CAs). In April, 2019 I wrote to you to advise of Conservation Ontario’s new Client Service and Streamlining Initiative. The initiative was created to support actions outlined in the provincial Housing Supply Action Plan, and identifies a number of actions to improve client service and accountability, increase speed of approvals and reduce red tape and regulatory burden. This initiative is intended to help the Province address the lack of housing supply, while at the same time not jeopardizing public health and safety or the environment in the process.
A great deal of progress has been made through this initiative, including the training of over 300 staff in client-centric approaches, the creation of 5 template guidelines for CAs and the establishment of a client-centric checklist for CAs in high-growth areas. Further information on our progress can be found on our website. Today, however, I want to highlight the results of our first quarter reporting on the timeliness of our CA Section 28 permit application reviews. In June, 2019 Conservation Ontario set new, challenging targets to improve client service and increase the speed of approvals. Through the Conservation Ontario Client Service Standards for Conservation Authority Plan and Permit Review (2019) guideline, best practice timelines were developed in response to industry concerns regarding timeliness of CA approvals. These best practice timelines represent a significant overall reduction compared to the expectations described in the Policies and Procedures for Conservation Authority Plan Review and Permitting (MNRF, 2010), including a 52% reduction in the overall timeline for major permit applications and 42% for minor permit applications.
I am pleased to report that the high-growth CAs were highly successful in issuing permits within the Provincial timelines and the Conservation Ontario best-practice timelines. From January 1st – March 31st, 2020 the high-growth CAs issued a combined total of 1077 permissions. During that same period, 12 of the 14 high-growth CAs issued over 96% of all permits within the Provincial timelines, and over 92% within the Conservation Ontario best practice timelines. Now, more than ever, we recognize the importance of providing superior client service and timely approvals as the Province commences economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic.

June 23, 2020
Since April 2019, Conservation Ontario has been working with Ontario’s conservation authorities (CAs) to make improvements to CA plan review and permitting activities through the Conservation Ontario Client Service and Streamlining Initiative. The Initiative was created to support actions outlined in the provincial Housing Supply Action plan, and identifies a number of actions to improve client service and accountability, increase speed of approvals and reduce red tape to help the Province address the lack of housing supply, while at the same time not jeopardizing public health and safety or the environment in the process.
To support timely reporting of CA Section 28 permit application reviews, Conservation Ontario developed a template which outlines a consistent reporting framework for permit review and approval timelines. Consistent with the new “Client Service Standards for Conservation Authority Plan and Permit Review”, the template identifies “best practice” timelines which were developed in response to industry concerns regarding timeliness of CA approvals.
These “best practice” timelines represent a significant overall reduction compared to Provincial expectations described in the Policies and Procedures for Conservation Authority Plan Review and Permitting (MNRF, 2010), including a 52% reduction in the overall timeline for major permit applications and 42% for minor permit applications.
Conservation Ontario worked with a group of 14 high-growth CAs to prepare reports consistent with the reporting framework outlining their progress towards meeting the ‘best practice’ timelines for the first quarter of 2020.
For permits issued outside of the timelines, CAs identified constraints which contributed to the small percentage of permits not meeting the targeted review times. Many CAs cited the need to increase uptake in pre-consultation processes and improve the quality of submissions to ensure a faster review and approval timeframe.

FIRST QUARTER PERFORMANCE RESULTS
From January 1st – March 31st, 2020 the high-growth CAs issued a combined total of 1077 permits. The CAs were highly successful in issuing permits within the provincial timelines and the CO best-practice timelines. 12 high-growth CAs issued over 96% of all permits within the Provincial timelines, and over 92% within the CO best practice timelines.

To address these constraints and continue to increase the speed of CA approvals, Conservation Ontario is developing a pre-consultation guidance document which outlines best practices for pre-consultation between CAs and their clients. Through a more robust pre-consultation process, CAs can ensure that all necessary information is received from clients to process permit applications in a timely manner with minimal resubmissions.
Beginning in 2021, the high-growth CAs will post annual reports to their websites on their permit review and approval timelines. In the meantime, Conservation Ontario is committed to working with Ontario’s conservation authorities to improve client service, increase the speed of approvals and reduce red tape, while continuing to protect public health and safety, and, the environment.

Staff Report No. 36-20-BOD Page No: 2 of 7 Agenda Item No: 2 BOD-08-20
Purpose of this Staff Report: The purpose of Staff Report No. 36-20-BOD is to provide the Board of Directors with an update on ownership and the findings of the Pefferlaw Dam structural assessment and recommendations. Background: The Pefferlaw Dam is located in the Town of Georgina on the eastern edge of the village of Pefferlaw and is comprised of two parcels of land (Attachment 1) on either side of the dam and spillway. A dam has been located at this site since the 1880s. Originally, the dam was constructed and used for the purpose of powering mills onsite and on adjacent lands. In its current state, the dam is essentially a local amenity. It is an aesthetic and historical focal point within the village and it creates a small reservoir that provides recreational benefits to local residents (ex. canoeing, kayaking, paddling) and dedicated water access for a small number of private residential properties. The Lake Simcoe Region Conservation Authority (the Authority) has operated the Pefferlaw Dam since the early 1980s after the adjacent properties were conveyed to the Authority by the Town of Georgina, to access government funding to repair and rehabilitate the dam. After the repairs were completed, our records indicate that the dam was intended to be transferred back to the municipality; however, for reasons that are undocumented, the transfer never happened. To that end, the Authority has continued, in-good-faith, to operate the dam annually with the installation and removal of stoplogs and flashboards to create the reservoir. In the fall of 2019, the Authority retained D.M. Wills Associates Limited to undertake a visual inspection to provide information regarding the condition, operation, and safety of the dam. A Dam Inspection Report, dated December 2019 identified 10 recommendations. The highest priority issues were identified as follows: concrete in a number of locations on the dam is in poor condition and repairs were required for the flashboards and posts (this work was completed by Authority staff); and erosion behind the downstream armour stone retaining walls that required immediate minor work to ensure the truss/railing is sufficient for fall arrest and as an anchor point for maintenance staff. Due to staff safety concerns the decision was made to not install the stop logs in the dam structure until a detailed assessment of the dam could be completed. Staff brought forward a series of recommendations to the delayed March 2020 Board of Directors’ meeting (held instead on April 3rd due to COVID-19). The recommendations included requesting clarity on dam ownership from the Province, undertaking a detailed structural and safety assessment of the dam and when appropriate, consultant with the Town of Georgina, the Province, and the community on the future of the dam.
Page 48 of 200
Staff Report No. 36-20-BOD Page No: 3 of 7 Agenda Item No: 2 BOD-08-20
Issues: 1. Dam Ownership Update
The Authority retained Premier Title Services Inc. in 2019 to complete a detailed investigation into the ownership titles and chain of custody for the Pefferlaw Dam and the two parcels on either side of the dam. Based on the detailed investigation only a small section of the eastern side of the dam falls within the eastern parcel that was conveyed to the Authority (Refer to Attachment 1), therefore prompting Premier Title Services Inc. to deduce that ownership of the dam remains inconclusive. The general assumption dating back to the 1980s was the ownership, maintenance and operation of the dam was included as part of the two parcels of land on either side. It was not until the detailed property title review was commenced that the dam ownership was identified as being in question. The two parcels adjacent to the dam were conveyed to the Authority from the Town of Georgina in 1982 for the sole purpose of accessing provincial dam infrastructure funding available to conservation authorities. The intent was to complete the dam reconstruction and repairs and return the lands to the Town of Georgina. This transfer never occurred. In order to confirm who owns the dam, with Board of Directors approval, staff have requested that the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry (MNRF) undertake an investigation into the ownership of the dam and associated lands. This includes the lands which the reservoir occupies when at full pool. MNRF recently notified staff that due to the current closure of Ontario ministry buildings, a formal response will not likely be provided until staff are able to return to their office and access archives and historic files. 2. Structural Assessment of the Pefferlaw Dam
The Authority retained D.M. Wills Associates Ltd. to undertake a detailed structural assessment of the dam and associated bridge, truss, and safety supports. The inspection work completed by D.M. Wills Associates Ltd. included concrete assessment of the dam, detailed inspections of the bridge and truss, a loadings and structural assessment of the bridge and truss and provision of recommendations with cost estimates for rehabilitation work. The detailed report can be found attached (Attachment 2). A summary of these results and recommendations follows: Structural and Concrete Assessment:
• The concrete assessment indicated there are three areas requiring remediation: o The outer concrete areas of the dam are in poor to fair condition with delamination,
spalling, scaling and some cracks in the face of the dam; o The eastern dam abutment is recommended for full replacement; and o The eastern slab needs partial replacement or significant grouting.
Page 49 of 200
Staff Report No. 36-20-BOD Page No: 4 of 7 Agenda Item No: 2 BOD-08-20
The above-mentioned works are recommended to occur within the next one to five years. The cost estimate for these remedial works is $368,065. The cost for design and technical supervision is $55,210. The total cost estimate excluding staff time and administration is $423,275. Bridge and Truss Assessment: A detailed bridge and truss assessment was completed including a detailed load model to evaluate impacts from variety of uses and to evaluate adequacy and function. The assessment concluded that the truss can be operated safely at this time, as long as critical welding repairs are completed prior to operation. The findings also concluded that the operation truss either be completely rehabilitated or replaced within 5 to 10 years to realize the life 75-year life span of the dam. Two alternatives were presented:
• Truss rehabilitation at an approximate cost of $52,650, OR
• Truss replacement at an approximate cost of $61,750.
These cost estimates do not include technical oversight or administration. A life cycle cost analysis was completed to compare the alternatives to evaluate best value. The analysis concluded that the full replacement of the truss was the preferred alternative as it had a lower life cycle cost due to reduced maintenance into the future. The total cost estimate including $9,260 for design and supervision is $71,010. The condition of the pedestrian bridge is similar to the condition of the operational truss. The rehabilitation of the bridge can be completed, or it can be replaced if the operational truss is to be replaced. The approximate construction cost for truss and bridge rehabilitation is $137,159 and the cost for full truss and bridge replacement is $165,570. The total cost estimates including design and supervision are respectively $157,732 and $190,430. These cost estimates do not include staff time or administration. These works are recommended to be completed in the next 5 to 10 years. Operational Status: In the immediate future, the dam can be returned to operational status upon completion of the remedial repairs and welding to the operational span truss. The approximate cost for these repairs including welding, oversight and staff time is $5,000 to $6,000. If this work is completed by the beginning of August, this will allow the reservoir to be viable for the remaining 2020 season. Water levels will increase dependent on flow during the period of stoplog and flashboard installation. The fall arrest system is adequate but does not extend across the entire dam structure. Future recommendations include a full extension of the system. The operational status of the dam into the future is dependent on the remedial and restoration works required and recommended by D.M. Wills Associates Ltd. If it is determined that the dam
Page 50 of 200
Staff Report No. 36-20-BOD Page No: 5 of 7 Agenda Item No: 2 BOD-08-20
should remain operational beyond 2020, the dam rehabilitation and concrete substructure restoration work must be completed within the next one to five years to ensure the integrity of the structure, annual operation and to meet its intended 75-year design life. General Recommendations and Costs: There is substantial remedial work required in the next decade if the dam is intended to be maintained to meet the original 75-year design life. Immediate work to operate the dam in 2020 is minor with a cost of $5,000 to $6,000. This work could be completed in a short timeframe and the stoplogs could be placed into the dam following normal protocols. This typically takes a few weeks to complete and the timeframe is dependent on flow rates of the river. The recommendations for concrete rehabilitation and truss replacement put the approximate cost for these total works at an estimated $494,285. If it was determined that full replacement of the truss and bridge were preferable, the total cost of all remedial and rehabilitation works would be approximately $613,705. 3. General Issues
Flood Control Structure: The Pefferlaw Dam was not designed or built to be a flood control structure. There has been some misconception in this regard as often dams can be used to mitigate flooding by storing excess water. This is not the case with the Pefferlaw Dam which is wholly used to create an artificial reservoir for recreation purposes. The dam itself actually poses a flood risk in the winter and spring which is why the Authority undertakes the removal of the stoplogs every fall to reduce the risk of ice jams that could lead to a dam failure. Given that the Pefferlaw Dam has no role in flood control, low water augmentation, waste assimilation or as a drinking water reservoir, the benefit of the structure is strictly for recreation. Its continued operation by the Authority has been a legacy to support the Town of Georgina and otherwise this activity does not fall within the mandate of the Lake Simcoe Region Conservation Authority. Our current watershed development policy prohibits the creation of on-line ponds or impoundments, and the benefits to removing on-line structures to restore natural waterways are well defined and documented to improve ecological health. This knowledge is the rationale behind the Lake Simcoe Region Conservation Authority stewardship efforts to remove or mitigate the impacts of online ponds and dams. As such, we have provided funds and sought grant money to assist with dam removal projects. One of the most recent, and very successful examples of this, was our own significant dam bypass and rehabilitation project at Scanlon Creek. The Scanlon Creek dam was constructed in 1970 to replace an old mill dam and was a concrete structure similar to the Pefferlaw Dam. Costs to remove the structure were prohibitive,
Page 51 of 200
Staff Report No. 36-20-BOD Page No: 6 of 7 Agenda Item No: 2 BOD-08-20
therefore a bypass channel was created in order to remove the reservoir and restore the Scanlon Creek to its natural form allowing for fish passage. This project was extremely successful and Scanlon Creek and the surrounding ecology are now thriving. Impact on Authority Finances: To operate the dam for the remainder of 2020 is relatively inexpensive with costs estimated at $5,000 to $6000 to complete remedial welding excluding supervision and oversight. The total cost estimate to implement the required engineering recommendations is either $494,285 or $613,705, based on either remediation or full replacement of the truss and pedestrian bridge. These cost estimates do not include technical oversight, administration, or staff time. The Authority does not have the reserve or capital budget available to undertake the recommendations outlined in the dam inspection report. As the structure is not for the purpose of flood control there is no ability for the Authority to seek funding through the province under the Water Erosion Control Infrastructure program. Summary and Recommendations The Pefferlaw Dam and reservoir are a significant recreational asset to the local community and in one form or another, has been in place for well over a century. The Pefferlaw Dam provides no formal flood control function, but rather is operated annually by installing and removing stoplogs to prevent the flood risk created by the dam in the winter and early spring seasons. In principle, the Authority does not support the existence of dams unless they provide flood mitigation, low flow augmentation, waste assimilation functions, and/or are drinking water reservoirs. In 1982, the property and dam were conveyed to the Authority from the Town of Georgina for the sole purpose of accessing dam maintenance funding from the Province. Upon completion of the rehabilitation works in the 1980s, the property was to be transferred back to the Town. For reasons that are not documented, this transfer has not occurred. The maintenance of the two abutting properties is still completed by the Town, with dam operations conducted by the Authority. There are several challenging issues regarding the Pefferlaw Dam:
• The costs to rehabilitate the dam to meet the 75-year life cycle are substantial.
• The Authority does not have reserve or capital budget available to rehabilitate or maintain the dam or a mechanism.

The following is a list of recommendations for consideration by the Board for next steps moving forward. 1. That the Board direct Authority staff to complete remedial welding on the truss supports of the
Pefferlaw Dam as soon as possible. 2. That the Board approve a request to the Town of Georgina to share the cost to complete the
remedial welding works. 3. That upon completion of the welding repairs, Authority staff install the stoplogs, and following
the Dam Operational Plan remove them again in the Fall to comply with provincially approved operating protocols.
4. That the Authority maintain the closure to pedestrian access over the bridge on the dam structure.
5. That the Authority continue to seek confirmation of ownership of the dam structure from the Province.
6. That the Authority, with the Town of Georgina, undertake community consultation regarding the current and future status of the Pefferlaw Dam.
7. That the Board approve a recommendation that the Authority permanently discontinue operation and stoplog management of the Pefferlaw Dam after the fall 2020 removal of the stop logs.

Introduction
In response to the recommendations within the 2019 Dam Inspection Report completed
by D.M. Wills Associates Limited (Wills), the Lake Simcoe Region Conservation Authority
(LSRCA) has retained the services of Wills to complete a Concrete Condition
Assessment (CCA) and Structural Evaluation of the truss over the operational span of
the Pefferlaw Dam and the reporting thereof. This Structural Design Memorandum has
been prepared to summarize the findings of both the CCA and Structural Evaluation
and provide alternatives for the rehabilitation of the structure. A life cycle cost analysis
has been completed to recommend the most cost effective alternative to address the
deterioration of the operation span by considering the expected costs over the life of
the structure for each alternative.
1.1 Background
The Pefferlaw Dam is located on the Main Branch of the Pefferlaw River approximately
200 m south of Pefferlaw Road in the Village of Pefferlaw, Town of Georgina, Regional
Municipality of York.
The substructure of the dam was originally constructed in the early 1880’s. The original
purpose of the dam was to provide water storage to power three (3) mills located on
the watercourse. Mill races were constructed on both the east and west sides of the
Main Branch of the Pefferlaw River to channel water to the mills. The mills have since
ceased operations. The downstream channel and the headpond provide recreational
uses and contribute to the general aesthetic of the area, as the former mill sites
downstream of the dam have been redeveloped as a municipal park and a number of
residences have been constructed adjacent to the headpond. Several residences
have docks constructed on the headpond.
A major rehabilitation of the dam was completed in 1982, which included construction
of the current steel truss pedestrian bridge, concrete repairs of the piers and
substructure elements, and construction of a fish ladder (now removed). In 1990 the
structure was converted from a twin sluice configuration to a single sluice.
The dam consists of a 31 m long concrete gravity structure with a 20 m long earth
embankment on the west side and a 30 m long earth embankment on the east side.
The concrete gravity structure includes a 13 m long concrete weir topped with timber
flash boards on the left (west) side of the structure, a 4.8 m wide sluiceway with timber
stoplogs in the middle of the structure and a 7.2 m long overflow weir on the right (east)
side of the structure. There are concrete aprons below the weirs and the centre
sluiceway as well as concrete wingwalls on both the left (west) and right (east) sides.
Access across the dam is provided by a 1.1 m wide steel truss approach spans, and a
1.82 m wide steel truss operation span. The truss bridge is supported on a stub concrete
abutment located behind the dams east wingwall, by steel posts at the sluiceway piers,
and on a bearing seat at the dams west wingwall. The west approach span has existing
fall arrest anchorage in place, while the operation span and east approach span do
not. The dam is accessed from Pefferlaw Road, which is located approximately 200 m
Page 59 of 200
Pefferlaw Dam Structural Design Memorandum
Lake Simcoe Region Conservation Authority
D.M. Wills Associates Limited Page 2 Project Number 19-5381
north (downstream) of the structure. Access by motorized vehicles is available via a
gravel road on the west side of the Pefferlaw River. A gate at Pefferlaw Road restricts
unauthorized vehicles from accessing the west side access road. There is a secondary
gated access on the east side of the Pefferlaw River that could be used as an
emergency or maintenance access to the east side of the dam.
1.2 2019 Dam Inspection Summary
Wills conducted an inspection of the Pefferlaw Dam in November 2019. The inspection
was generally comprised of visual inspection of the various elements of the structure, as
well as documentation via several methods including - underwater, on ground, and
aerial photography and videography, sketches, and physical measurements. Following
the inspection, Wills provided the LSRCA with ten (10) recommendations.
Of the ten (10) recommendations presented in the Dam Inspection Report, LSRCA has
opted to move forward in addressing four (4) recommendations, listed below:
1. Undertake a concrete condition assessment of the dam;
2. Complete a structural evaluation of the truss bridge and develop repair or
replacement options;
3. Confirm that the truss/railing has sufficient capacity to act as a fall arrest anchor
point for use by operators during stoplog operations; and
4. Complete a new Dam Safety Review.
This report has been prepared to address recommendations 1-3 listed above.
1.3 Reference Documents
The following documents were available in preparation of this report:
Dam Inspection Report, D.M. Wills Associates Limited, December 2019.
Draft Limited Condition Survey Report, Bridge Check Canada, June 2020.
Original Tender Drawing (D3), Marshall Macklin Monaghan Ltd., May 1982.
Concrete Condition Assessment
Wills retained the services of Bridge Check Canada Ltd. to complete a limited condition
survey of the dam in accordance with the requirements of the MTO Structural
Rehabilitation Manual (2007). The condition survey consisted of a delamination and
concrete deterioration survey on all exposed concrete components, as well as coring
and physical testing of concrete core samples to determine air entrainment and
compressive strength. A total of twelve (12) cores were extracted from across the
structure; three (3) from the west abutment and retaining wall, two (2) from the east
abutment and retaining wall, two (2) from the west apron slab and weir, three (3) from
the east apron and weir, and one (1) from each of the east and west piers.
Page 60 of 200
Pefferlaw Dam Structural Design Memorandum
Lake Simcoe Region Conservation Authority
D.M. Wills Associates Limited Page 3 Project Number 19-5381
The findings of the limited condition survey report indicate that the majority of the
concrete elements are experiencing deterioration in the form of wide cracks,
efflorescence staining, delamination, and spalling, with areas of light, medium, and
severe scaling. In general, the concrete elements of the dam are described as being in
fair to poor condition, as summarized below:
East Abutment / Retaining Wall in poor condition.
West Abutment / Retaining Wall in fair to poor condition.
East Weir in fair condition.
East Apron in poor condition.
West Weir in fair to poor condition.
West Apron in poor condition.
East Pier in fair condition.
West Pier in fair to good condition.
The concrete cores tested for compressive strength results ranged from 21.7 MPa to
57.1 MPa. The original tender drawings for the dam restoration completed in 1982
specified a minimum concrete strength of 28 MPa, therefore the east abutment and
retaining wall, west abutment and retaining wall, and west pier each recorded one
concrete core with a compressive strength lower than the intended design strength
(26.6 MPa, 21.7 MPa, and 24.5 MPa, respectively). In core samples where reinforcing
steel was encountered, the steel was in good condition with no evidence of surface
corrosion.
Delamination planes were noted in three (3) of the twelve (12) cores (25%), however,
these cores were extracted from areas where delamination was known to be present
through surface sounding. The depth at which the delamination planes were recorded
ranges between 15-190 mm, with an average depth of 163 mm. Large aggregate was
encountered below the 1982 rehabilitation work in several of the cores, which is
common for early concrete dams.
Two (2) cores were extracted to determine the air entrainment of the existing concrete.
The West retaining wall was found to not be air entrained, and the east weir was found
to be air entrained.
The entirety of the Limited Condition Survey Report can be found in Appendix B.
2.1 Concrete Rehabilitation
Based on the extent of deterioration noted in the concrete condition assessment and
remaining service life of the structure, rehabilitation of the concrete elements is required
to extend their useful life. Given that deterioration is primarily attributed to the surface
concrete, rehabilitation through crack injection and typical localized shallow depth
removal and patch repairs is considered suitable. If the cumulative area of
delamination and spalling on any given element covers the majority of the exposed

D.M. Wills Associates Limited Page 4 Project Number 19-5381
face, partial or complete refacing of the concrete element should be considered.
Complete replacement of the east abutment retaining wall is recommended, and
partial replacement or grouting below the east apron slab will be required.
The approximate cost to implement all concrete rehabilitation recommendations is
$368,065. The detailed preliminary cost estimate can be found in Appendix C.
Pedestrian Truss Bridge – Operational Span Evaluation
The pedestrian truss bridge spans the entirety of the structure and is comprised of
coated square HSS steel sections for the truss elements and a galvanized grate walking
surface. The operational span, located between the east and west piers, includes an
opening for stoplog operation. Erected in 1981, the steel truss is in year 39 of an
assumed 75-year design life.
The 2019 Dam Inspection reported that the east and west spans are in fair condition,
with coating failure and minor corrosion throughout. In addition, the inspection report
indicated that the operational span is in poor condition with wide cracks in some
corners of the square HSS. A bearing seat failure in the form of a spall was found at the
southwest bearing of the west abutment. As a result of the 2019 Dam Inspection, an
evaluation of the operational span has been completed.
The evaluation included creation of a model of the existing operational truss in SAP2000
as shown in Figure 1, including member dimensions from the design drawings that were
verified onsite, and design strengths from the drawings. Various loading scenarios were
applied to determine the demand on the elements of the operational truss to
determine if elements of the truss are overstressed.
Figure 1 – Pefferlaw Dam Access Bridge SAP2000 Model

Lake Simcoe Region Conservation Authority
D.M. Wills Associates Limited Page 5 Project Number 19-5381
The operational span of the pedestrian bridge was analyzed using the following loads:
Pedestrian Live Load of 3.95 kPa as per CHBDC, Clause 3.8.9
Wind Load of 0.96 kPa
Log stockpiling load (Max. five (5) of 200x300x4890 timber logs)
It was determined through the evaluation that the effect of the storing of stoplogs is less
than the effect of the specified pedestrian live load. Furthermore, it was determined
that the cracking at the end vertical HSS of the middle truss section are not due to
overstressing. The operational span truss was found to be capable of carrying the
above mentioned loads, and the anchorage at the pier posts were determined to be
adequate.
As there is no fall arrest anchorage provided across the operational span, the truss was
also analyzed for the following load:
Fall Arrest Load of 8 kN with a Factor of Safety of 2.0 (16 kN total) as per the
Occupational Health and Safety Act, Construction Projects Regulation (O. Reg.
213/91, s.16)
It was determined through the evaluation that the top chord of the truss has inadequate
capacity to be used as a fall arrest anchor. The operation span truss was found to be
capable of carrying the fall arrest load if the anchor was located on the bottom chord
at the convergence of diagonals and at the end posts. All fall arrest systems and
anchorage should be verified to be in compliance with O. Reg. 213/91, s.16.
Figure 2 – Fall Arrest Anchor Possible Locations
Page 63 of 200
Pefferlaw Dam Structural Design Memorandum
Lake Simcoe Region Conservation Authority
D.M. Wills Associates Limited Page 6 Project Number 19-5381
The existing fall arrest system does not span the operational span of the truss. However,
the existing system on the western span, comprised of a steel cable passing through
eyelets welded to L-shaped HSS members which are fastened to the underside of the
approach truss, should be assessed and if suitable can be extended over the
operational span. Preferably new supports erected on top of the concrete piers would
remove the fall arrest system from the truss altogether. This approach to the extension of
the existing fall arrest system separates the operational span truss from the fall arrest
system, which is preferred when considering future maintenance or replacement of
either element.
Notwithstanding the adequacy of the existing truss structure, the following
recommendations are presented as a result of the evaluation:
Repair cracks at the operation span truss end vertical HSS.
Repair concrete and repair the bearing seat at the west abutment.
Recoat structural steel.
Review current fall arrest anchorage practices and modify as necessary.
Based on the findings of the structural evaluation of the pedestrian truss bridge, two (2)
alternatives for addressing the condition of the operational span are considered for
further evaluation.
3.1 Alternative 1 – Truss Rehabilitation
Alternative 1 has been developed based on the recommendations of the structural
evaluation and is comprised of the rehabilitation of the pedestrian truss bridge through
weld repair, recoating of the structural steel over the operational span, as well as repair
of the spalled concrete under the bearing at the west abutment. Alternative 1 is
considered to be a short term solution and is intended to realize the remaining service
life of the structure (36 years).
The approximate cost to implement Alternative 1 is $52,650. The detailed preliminary
cost estimate can be found in Appendix C.
3.2 Alternative 2 – Truss Replacement
Alternative 2 addresses the recommendations from the structural evaluation through
replacement of the operational span of the dam. Similar to Alternative 1, this alternative
includes rehabilitation of the spalled concrete under the bearing seat at the west
abutment. The purpose of Alternative 2 is to provide LSRCA with a long term solution
and determine which of the short and long term solutions provides LSRCA the best
value.
The approximate cost to implement Alternative 2 is $61,750. The detailed preliminary
cost estimate can be found in Appendix C.

D.M. Wills Associates Limited Page 7 Project Number 19-5381
3.3 Life Cycle Cost Analysis
In order to determine which alternative to address the condition of the operational
span presents the best value to LSCRA, a Life Cycle Cost Analysis (LCCA) is required. For
the purposes of the LCCA, the costs related to the concrete rehabilitation have been
discounted from each alternative, with the exception of the bearing concrete repair
required under both Alternatives. The resulting net present value of the costs of
Alternatives 1 & 2 are $67,902 and $63,959, respectively. At the end of their respective
life cycles the cost to replace the truss was entered to represent a truss replacement at
the dam in the future. Service lives of 35 and 75 years were assigned to Alternative 1
and 2, respectively, with 75 years used thereafter to represent subsequent truss
replacements.
The results of the LCCA, found in Appendix D, indicate that there is greater value in
replacing the operational span of the truss as opposed to its rehabilitation.
Conclusion and Recommendations
Having been constructed in 1981, the pedestrian truss bridge across the Pefferlaw Dam
has progressed through 39 years of its assumed design life of 75 years. The 2019 Dam
Inspection and subsequent Limited Condition Survey revealed several sources of
deterioration across the dam which require intervention in the form of replacement
and/or rehabilitation. Two (2) alternatives have been developed with consideration
given to short and long term effectiveness, and the costs compared.
Alternative 1, truss repair / rehabilitation, was developed as a short term solution with
the aim to address deterioration noted during the field investigations. Alternative 2, truss
replacement, was developed to provide LSRCA with a long term solution against which
Alternative 1 could be compared through an LCCA in order to determine which
alternative presents the best value. Based on the results of the LCCA, Alternative 2 is the
recommended rehabilitation solution for the Pefferlaw Dam. As stated in Section 3.2,
the cost to implement Alternative 2 is $ 61,750.
The scope of this assignment limited evaluation of the pedestrian truss bridge to the
operational span. Given that the protective coating of the structural steel is in poor
condition across both the approach and operational spans, consideration should be
given to the complete replacement of the pedestrian access bridge. If the structural
steel over the operational span is replaced and no remedial work completed on the
remainder of the pedestrian bridge, an additional rehabilitation of the remaining
structural steel will be required in the next 5 – 10 years as deterioration progresses in the
form of corrosion and section loss. Consideration should also be given to rehabilitating
the Substructure Concrete during this rehabilitation cycle. If no remedial work is
completed on the Substructure Concrete, an additional rehabilitation of the east
abutment and truss bearing seat will be required in the next 1 - 5 years and
rehabilitation of the remainder of the substructure within the next 5 – 10 years.

Completing all of the recommended work under a single contract will result in savings
on items related to mobilization, construction layout, and environmental protection.
Furthermore, replacement of all structural steel would be aesthetically preferential.
Note that completion of a Dam Safety Assessment is required prior to undertaking the
recommended concrete rehabilitation work as the Ministry of Natural Resources and
Forestry will require this information prior to issuing a permit for the work under the Lakes
and Rivers Improvement Act. The current Dam Safety Assessment is outdated as it was
completed in 2008 and the Hazard Potential Classification, Inflow Design Flood, and
Hydraulic Capacity should be confirmed to determine if additional measures beyond
those identified in this report are required. The current Dam Safety Assessment also
identified stability deficiencies with the existing dam that should be addressed. Given
this the estimates provided in this report should be considered a lower bound for the
estimated concrete rehabilitation cost.
The general rehabilitation work, associated costs, and recommended timeline for
implementation are tabulated below:

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT FINDINGS
Pefferlaw Dam, Pefferlaw Brook Watershed, Pefferlaw, ON
1.0 INTRODUCTION
Bridge Check Canada Ltd. was retained by D.M. Wills Associates to carry out a limited dam condition
survey for Pefferlaw Dam under Lake Simcoe Region Conservation Authority’s request. This report
presents Bridge Check Canada Ltd.’s findings, through the field investigations and laboratory testing, for
Pefferlaw Dam located on Pefferlaw Dam Conservation Area (44°18'50.0"N 79°11'50.8"W). First‐time field
investigations were carried out on May 22, 2020. The investigation included delamination survey and
concrete cover survey for all concrete components that are in the DRY (2 piers, 2 abutments, 2 overflow
weirs with apron slabs, and the west retaining wall), extraction of twelve (12) x 3‐4” diameter concrete
cores and Laboratory testing. Core locations were determined by D.M. Wills engineer on site.
A micro drone was used to take aerial photos of the structure (Photos P1 and P2). Bridge Check Canada
Ltd.’s staff have received proper training to operate the drone.
The site, constructed circa 1981. The reinforced cast‐in‐place concrete dam consists of 2 piers, 2
abutments, 2 overflow weirs with apron slabs, steel access bridge, concrete west retaining wall and gabion
walls on the northeast and northwest sides.
Photo P1 in Appendix E shows a view of the north elevation of the site. Photo P2 in Appendix E shows a
view of the south elevation.

2.0 METHODOLOGY
In general, the procedures followed to conduct the condition survey and delamination survey were those
defined in Part 1 of the MTO Structure Rehabilitation Manual (2007). This assignment involved the
observation and recording of surface defects, delamination detection, grid layouts (1.0 m x 1.0 m),
concrete cores, concrete cover meter survey, and physical testing of the concrete cores.
The delaminations in the concrete were detected by striking the surface with a heavy hammer and
noting the change in sound being emitted. It should be mentioned that, while this method is quite
reliable, it may not detect delaminations at a depth greater than 100 mm. The hammer sounding
method was used for all accessible vertical and overhead surfaces. If the striking object is highly
resonant, the difference between sound and delaminated concrete may be difficult to distinguish.
Therefore, additional care was taken when interpreting the sound produced. The chain drag method has
been found to be the most suitable for detecting delaminations on the exposed horizontal concrete
surfaces. The chain is moved from side‐to‐side in a swinging motion along the surface of the concrete. A
change in the normal ringing sound to that of a dull sound would normally indicate that a delaminated
area had been encountered. A heavy chain (2.2 kg/m with 50 mm links) has proved to be most suitable,
especially, in areas where there is interference from traffic noise.
The areas and locations of patches, spalls, delaminations, exposed reinforcement, honey‐combing, wet
areas, scaling and other observed defects were recorded.
The concrete cover over the outer layer of reinforcing steel was measured using an approved MTO cover‐
meter (Elcometer Protovale 331). The covermeter measures the disturbance in a magnetic field and the
magnitude of the disturbance is proportional to the size of the bar and its distance from the probe. The
cover to the top bar in the top mat was measured nearest the grid point or by taking an average of the
bars on either side of the grid point. The value recorded was the cover to the uppermost bar nearest to
the intersection of the grid lines. A cover meter survey was carried out for the accessible exposed concrete
components.
Twelve (12) cores {3 west abutment and retaining wall, 2 east abutment and retaining wall, 2 west apron
slab and weir plan, 3 east apron slab and weir, 1 each east and west pier}, in compliance with the
requirements of D.M. Wills engineer on site. The inside of the core holes was examined carefully for cracks
and the condition of the concrete. All the test samples were reinstated to their original condition using
MTO‐approved products.
Enclosed with this report are detailed condition survey summary sheets, survey equipment and calibration
procedures, core photos/sketches, core logs, site photos, laboratory test results and drawings.

Staff Report No. 37-20-BOD Page No: 1 of 4 Agenda Item No: 3 BOD-08-20
TO: Board of Directors FROM: Melinda Bessey, MSc, MCIP, RPP Director, Planning Ashlea Brown Acting Director, Regulations DATE: July 8, 2020
SUBJECT: Monitoring Report – Planning and Development Applications for
the Period January 1 through June 30, 2020
RECOMMENDATION: THAT Staff Report No. 37-20-BOD regarding monitoring of planning
and development applications for the period January 1 through June 30, 2020 be received for information.
Purpose of this Staff Report:
The purpose of this Staff Report No. 37-20-BOD is to provide the Board of Directors with an update on the progress of planning and development applications submitted to the Lake Simcoe Region Conservation Authority for the period January 1 through June 30, 2020.
Background:
A summary of the total number of applications for this period is shown in the attached Tables 1, 2, and 3. These tables summarize the number of applications received by application type and by municipality, as well as the number of pre-consultations, non-application technical reviews and general inquiries. The type of applications reviewed and processed are statutory requirements under the following legislation:
Planning Act (Table 1)
• Official Plans, Secondary Plans, Community Plans and Amendments
• Comprehensive Zoning By-Laws and Amendments
• Consent and Minor Variance Applications
• Plans of Subdivision and Condominium
• Site Plan Applications
Page 195 of 200
Staff Report No. 37-20-BOD Page No: 2 of 4 Agenda Item No: 3 BOD-08-20
Conservation Authorities Act (Tables 2 and 3)
• Section 28 Permit Applications
• Public Information Requests (PIR)
• Site Clearances
• Solicitor Inquiries
Other Legislation (Table 2)
• Undertakings in accordance with the Environmental Assessment Act
Tables 4, 5, and 6 summarize the total number of planning and development applications and inquiries for the period January 1 through June 30, 2019.
Planning Act Applications
In general, the total number of applications reviewed under the Planning Act as of June 30, 2020 was 17% lower than the total number of applications reviewed during the same period in the previous year. The areas of variance of application submissions are as follows:
Applications for Plan of Subdivision/Condominium
• During the same time period last year, 44 applications for Plan of Subdivision were submitted. This year we have received 18. This decline may be attributed to a number of factors, most notably being servicing allocation. It is also noted that while the number of new applications for subdivision is lower, we are receiving a high volume of detailed design resubmissions seeking final approval for subdivision applications which were received between 2017 and 2019.
Committee of Adjustment Applications
• The number of Committee of Adjustment Applications (Minor Variance and Consent) are down by 42% and 33% respectively. It is assumed that this is the result of COVID-19 where legislation was passed (Bill 189 and O.Reg 73/20) to suspend limitation periods and procedural timelines under any statute, regulation, rule or by-law in effect in Ontario. The result was a “pause” on various forms of litigation and administrative proceedings to allow parties, adjudicators, local authorities, and the Province to effectively respond to the changing needs of the crisis. In the land use planning context, this suspended all timelines under the Planning Act. As a result, many of our member municipalities ceased holding Committee of Adjustment hearings and stopped circulating these applications to us for review. This timeline suspension ended on June 22, 2020 and we have already noticed an increase in the number of these types of applications being submitted as municipalities commence Committee of Adjustment hearings again.
It is important to note that we now track pre-consultation review as shown in Table 1. This tracking was not implemented until Q3 of 2019, accordingly, the comparative calculation of applications has only considered applications submitted under the Planning Act and not pre-consultations. Per the report provided to the Board of Directors on May 22, 2020 (30-06-20

Service Delivery Improvements Planning and Development) LSRCA Planning and Development staff are encouraging proponents to pre-consult with our team prior to submitting their applications. For larger development sites, we are strongly encouraging that a stormwater management / Low Impact Development Design Charrette be held with LSRCA Staff, Municipal Staff, and the proponent. This provides all parties the opportunity to identify any constraints or design challenges early in the process and the chance to brainstorm together to find solutions to these matters. We are learning that working together to establish these key agreements in principle, is resulting in a more streamlined technical review of Planning Act applications, which in turn results in more timely approvals.
Conservation Authorities Act Applications
The number of applications received as of June 30, 2020 under the Conservation Authorities Act was 7% lower than received during the same period the previous year. We generally see an increase in permit applications in the spring of each year as people start to prepare for their summer construction projects and as the site conditions are favorable for larger development and infrastructure projects to proceed. It is assumed that the cause of the reduced number of applications under the Conservation Authorities Act is COVID-19. The pandemic has caused a great deal of uncertainty in the industry – mainly related to when construction projects were able to proceed. This decrease in applications can also be related to the decrease in the Planning Act applications noted above.
Currently, we adhere to the Service Standard Timelines specified by the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry (MNRF) through the “Policies and Procedures for Conservation Authority Plan Review and Permitting Activities” (2010) document. However, as part of the commitment to improve client service and accountability, the LSRCA has adapted Conservation Ontario’s “Client Service Standards for Conservation Authority Plan and Permit Review”. The LSRCA provided a first quarter report to Conservation Ontario on our timelines and we have met or exceeded all required timelines for 98% of the Section 28 applications and inquiries.
Tables 3 and 6 summarize the customer service statistics for the first six months of 2020 and 2019, respectively. As a result of the pandemic we have not been able to offer our in-person counter service, however, the Regulations Analysts have been providing responses to all inquiries through email, telephone, or video conferencing. The number of inquiries is 10% less than last year, it is assumed that this is a result of our offices not being open for “walk in” inquiries.
Issues:
The statistics presented in the attached tables do not provide any indication of the complexity of the applications. Many of the new development applications are being proposed on lands that have previously been overlooked due to the constraints that are associated with them. The statistics also do not provide a clear indication of the amount of staff time which is focused on pre-consultation and design charrettes.

Relevance to Authority Policy:
Client service and satisfaction has been identified as an important guiding principle in LSRCA’s Strategic Plan 2016-2020. As previously reported, in response to Bill 108, Conservation Ontario has engaged senior conservation authority staff in a streamlining initiative that provides a commitment to improve plan and permitting review through improving client service and accountability, increasing the speed of approvals, and reducing red tape and regulatory burden. Monitoring the number of applications processed is important to ensure customer service targets are met.
Impact on Authority Finances:
The LSRCA Planning and Development department operates on a cost recovery rate of 100% for the review and processing of planning and permit applications. This reduction to application numbers impacts the department’s budget. Accordingly, department management have been working with the Finance Department through a budget forecasting exercise to gain an understanding of how to proceed for the remainder of the year. Continued monitoring of application numbers is important to understand staffing requirements of the departments and to assess revenue generation against the approved budget. Through our pre-consultation meetings with proponents, it is expected that we will see a higher number of applications in the second half of 2020.
Summary and Recommendations:
It is therefore RECOMMENDED THAT Staff Report No. 37-20-BOD regarding monitoring of planning and development applications for the period January 1 through June 30, 2020 be received for information.
Pre-Submission Review:
This Staff Report has been reviewed by the General Manager, Planning & Development and Watershed Restoration Services, and the Chief Administrative Officer.
