EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The applicant has requested a zoning amendment to permit a recreational use (a commercial children's playground) within the existing place of worship. This request can be supported because: • The Official Plan permits ancillary uses in residential areas including places of worship and recreational facilities. • Provided the floor area of the recreational use is limited to 500 square metres, the use will remain ancillary to the existing place of worship use and should not cause additional impacts on surrounding residents. • The modest amount of traffic generated by the proposed use is not expected to impact on surrounding residents. BACKGROUND Proposal An amendment is requested for 0.79 hectares (2 acres) of land known as 6970 Mountain Road (see Schedule 1). The applicant is requesting a recreational use (a commercial children's playground) be permitted in the basement of the existing place of worship. Schedule 2 shows details of the existing development. , ovember 8, 2010 - 2 - PD- 2010 he land is zoned Institutional (I -203) with site specific parking standards, being the greatk- f 1 space per 5 persons occupancy for religious services or 1 space per 12.2 squa. ietres of floor area for ancillary uses. The applicant is requesting a new site specet istitutional (I) zone to add a recreational use to the list of uses permitted on the proper modified parking standard is also requested, which would permit parking to be proviaF t a rate of 1 space per 40 square metres of floor area for a recreational use and 1 spa ,er 12.2 metres of floor area for other ancillary uses. The option of calculating park. , ased on the greater of occupancy for religious services or for ancillary uses would remal Site Conditions and Surrounding Land Uses he Mountain Park Church, a 1921 square metre building consisting of a sanctuary, offii rnd a day care, occupies the site along with associated parking. he land is bounded by single detached dwellings to the south, west and east an .cross from Fireman's Park which exists to the north. 3irculation Comments nformation regarding the proposed Zoning By -law Amendment was circulated tc livisions, the Region and the public for comment. The following summarizes :omments received to date: Regional Municipality of Niagara Fire Services No objections from a Provincial or Regional perspective. The propo- amendment will provide for an additional use to complement the exist) institutional uses on the property and supports the complete comma, concept. Transportation Services No objections. To ensure sufficient parking is provided, the park requirement for the recreational use should be added to the park requirement for the place of worship. No objections. If any Building Permits are required, further informatiot fire access routes and hydrant locations to be provided. Legal Services, Municipal Works, Parks and Recreation, Building Services No objections. Neighbourhood Open House A neighbourhood open house was held on September 21, 2010 which was attenae one neighbouring resident who backs onto the site's parking lot. The resident indicate had no concerns with the proposed use but expressed concern if additional curbin, fencing was constructed adjacent to his property. He noted he had an agreement wits church for occasional access to the rear of his property and was concerned new cur or fencing would interfere with this access. November 8, 2010 - 3 - PD- 2010 -89 ANALYSIS 1. Official Plan The property is designated Residential by the Official Plan. Residential lands are intended to be developed primarily with a variety of residential dwellings. Complementary uses, such as places of worship, recreational & community facilities and neighbourhood commercial uses may be considered where they are compatible with surrounding properties and conveniently and appropriately located to serve area residents. If they generate a significant amount of traffic they are to be located on collector or arterial roads. The proposed recreational use complies with the Official Plan as follows: The recreational use is a facility that will serve the surrounding community. This use will be subordinate to the main place of worship use of the property. • The land has been used for a place of worship for many years and is compatible with surrounding properties. The proposed use will be contained within the existing building and there will be no changes to the exterior of the building or the site. Existing buffering and fencing will remain. The addition of the recreational use is not expected to impact on surrounding residences. • The site is accessed from an arterial road which is planned to carry large amounts of traffic. Surrounding residents are not expected to be impacted by the traffic the proposed use will generate. 2. Zoning By -law The requested site specific I zoning would add a Recreational Use to the list of permitted uses on the site. The operation of an indoor facility providing climbing apparatus, slides and other children's play equipment would fall under the definition of a recreational use. The facility will provide for children's parties and gatherings for a fee. To ensure the recreational use remains subordinate to the place of worship the implementing by -law should limit the floor area to 500 square metres. The existing site specific zoning provides a shared parking formula, which allows parking to be provided either for the area dedicated for religious services or the ancillary areas, whichever is greater. This recognizes that a place of worship's sanctuary and ancillary areas are typically occupied at alternate times. The applicant has requested the shared parking formula be amended to allow parking to be provided either for the place of worship or for the recreational use and other ancillary floor areas. As it is not expected the recreational use would be open on Sunday mornings when the sanctuary is being fully utilized, this request is acceptable. There is sufficient parking on the site to accommodate the recreational use. The requested parking requirement of 1 space per 40 square metres of floor area for the recreational use is reflective of current by -law standards. FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS There are no financial implications with the proposal. ovember 8, 2010 - 4 - PD-2010-8 rITY'S STRATEGIC COMMITMENT he proposed development complies with the City's Official Plan in terms of ancillary us- residential areas. 1ST OF ATTACHMENTS k >~-x, 1,1-( LOO Alex Herlovitch, Director of Planning, Building & Developm( 'Respectfully submitted: Ken Tddd, Chief Administrative Officer iecommended by: Bryce:mb , ttach.

RECEIVED Nov 0 1 2010 PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT Planning, Building & Development Department Inter - Department Memorandum TO: His Worship Mayor Ted Salci DATE: November 8, 2010 and Members of the Municipal Council FROM: Alex Herlovitch Director of Planning, Building & Development Ext. 4231 RE: November 8, 2010 - World Planning Day November 8, 2010 is World Planning Day. This is an international event day intended to celebrate the accomplishment of planners throughout the world. The first World Planning Day was held in 1949. World Planning Day reminds us of the need for everyone to get involved in building our communities and making policies that will improve those communities. A planner is a trained professional who works to improve the quality of our environment and communities. Planners help plan and design new neighbourhoods, as well as, redevelopment within existing areas. They have unique skill sets to help facilitate discussion and establish land use compatibility through the preparation of planning documents such as official plans and zoning by -laws. Planners are generally members of the Ontario Professional Planners Institute who provide ongoing training and education in the planning field. The Institute promotes good planning, ensures members follow a code of conduct and conducts research on planning issues. Further associated membership is through the Canadian Institute of Planners at the national level. World Planning Day provides an opportunity for planners to recognize their profession and promote the values of planning in creating great communities. In recent years, planners have taken the lead in creating the healthier cities movement and promoting a cleaner environment and healthier lifestyles for area residents. Through the Provincial Government's launching of a "Smart Growth" initiative in 2001, planners assist to help reduce urban sprawl and urban decline, while working to ensure a healthy economy and encourage more livable communities. In 2006, the Province released the Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe and planners are actively involved in helping Councils manage growth within their municipality. Much of the focus today is on sustainable communities with an emphasis on good urban design, active transportation and green infrastructure. The planners within the City's Planning, Building and Development Division are very proud of their profession. Many staff spend considerable amount of time assisting residents and developers with their proposed developments. While sometimes it is difficult to accommodate the development inquiries of those who visit City Hall, it is important that we work together to ensure land use compatibility. As planning staff, we are required to implement the policies in the City's Official Plan and the provisions of the comprehensive zoning by -law. By commemorating World Planning Day, we recognize the importance of proper planning in creating our communities. By providing this memo, the City's planning staff wish Council to acknowledge November 8, 2010 as World Planning Day.

M905458-5711 Ignoring sign should mean paying the price « Back Updated 3 days ago It's a three -way stop sign few people seem to obey It was pretty obvious after parking near the corner for a few minutes and watching a number of cars as they approached the intersection. Some drivers take a quick look to see if the coast is clear and continue on their way Maybe someone at city hall sent them a letter saying they are exempt, don't need to stop and the sign is meant for everyone else but them. Some drivers make a halfhearted attempt to stop, they pump the brake once and think that's good enough. To them, a rolling stop is just as good as a full stop Few drivers actually come to a full stop. Just a thought, but if Niagara Regional Police Chief Wendy Southall has a police officer working traffic who isn't too busy one day, it's an assignment worth considering. It just might be a money maker -- hint, hint. The three -way stop is on Beaver Valley Way and the residents who live there have finally had enough. It's a fairly short street, but it's wide so drivers clip along and make wide tums without slowing down. The street can get busy at times because it connects Beaverdams Rd., with the Beaver Valley subdivision. Neighbours have watched cars jump curbs, one car took out a fence a few years ago and recently a car rolled over and took out a green hydro box on the boulevard. That last accident was a wake -up call for those who live on the street. A number of the kids in the neighbourhood had been sitting on the box five minutes before the accident. Fortunately, someone was watching over those kids when they decided to move and play in the backyard. "We want people to slow down," said Amanda McAlpine, who would like to see a speed bump put in, but has already been told that's not likely to happen because it's a short street. We've had issues. There used to be a median, but that was taken out. We have already been to city hall and have contacted police." At first, they had a two -way stop That wasn't working. So, it was changed to a three -way stop. That worked for a short while, but drivers soon began to ignore it. McAlpine said her two children, ages 4 and 6, were in shock to see the hydro box they used to play on destroyed. Donna Armstrong, who has lived on the street six years, said the problem continues to get worse. "It's dangerous. I can't even get out of my driveway People just ignore the stop sign," said Armstrong, who refuses to let her grandchildren play near the sidewalk. She made that decision after a driver hit the curb in front of her house. She doesn't want to see anyone get a ticket, but maybe that's the kind of reminder some drivers need before they start to pay attention. "It has gotten out of hand. It's just a matter of time, someone is going to get killed," said Armstrong, adding it's the last thing anyone wants to see happen. "We really don't know what else to do The stop sign is just not working." Mary Ann McRae, who has lived on the street for about 10 years, and has two children ages 11 and 6, said it's time to try a speed bump because, so far, nothing else has worked. She has talked to neighbours who live around the corner near the park and they are having similar problems with speeders. eview lere's just no respect. A few people stop because they know children are here, but some of them drive like , niacs You can't have your kids out here " true that we can't have a police officer on every corner or put in speed bumps on every street, but wher re's a problem such as this and it continues to get worse, someone better take another look. a people who live there are telling you the three -way stop is not working because drivers are ignoring it at leaves few options. You can put in a speed bump and wait to see if things improve, or get a cop out there t thing one moming and keep writing tickets until the drivers in that neighbourhood get the message ip means stop ciuto @nfreview com Copyright © 2010 Niagara Falls Review Windows Live Hotmail Print Message Page 1 of 1 Accident in Beavervalley Wed.

At approximately 7pm Wed. Oct 6th a gentleman drove through a 3 way stop, speeding, crashed into my front yard taking out the hydro box and my tree. My chiild and the neighbours child had been sitting on that green hydro box only 5 minutes before this happened. The disregard of the 3 way stop and the speeding that occurs in this subdivision on a daily basis is unbelievable and something MUST be done about it now before there is a fatality. We have asked for speed bumps to be put in place and have been denied. What is it going to take for someone to listen to our concerns? This accident last night has my child extremely upset and feeling like he can not play in his own fron yard without concern for his safety. I BEG you to please look at the attached photos and help us do something to fix this issue before one of the many childern that play on our street is seriously hurt or worse.

Table 1 shows that taxes outstanding at September 30, 2010 are $26.5 million. This represents a slight increase from $26.1 million in arrears for the same period in 2009. Finance staff continues to actively pursue property owners in arrears. Table 2 provides the breakdown of outstanding taxes by assessment class. The majority of outstanding taxes are for residential and commercial properties. The chart shows that the taxes owing from the commercial property class has increased slightly from a year ago. Finance staff takes specific collection actions for properties that are subject to registration. These action steps have been outlined in previous reports. At January 1, 2010, 405 properties were subject to registration. Table 3 summarizes the progress of these actions after nine months of activity. This table shows 86.6% of the tax accounts or 351 properties have been paid in full or the owners have made suitable payment arrangements. During September, four accounts were paid in full. In addition, the number of accounts with suitable arrangements including full payments increased from 84.5% (August) to 86.6% (September). vember 8, 2010 - 2 - F - lance staff continues to make every effort to have accounts paid in order to avow, ., _gistration process and the associated costs related to that process. ible 4 identifies the properties and associated tax arrears scheduled for tax sales I r Ture.

That the City enter into a joint Lease Extension Agreement with The Regional Municipality of Niagara (the "Region ") and the Niagara Falls Bridge Commission (the "Bridge Commission ") with respect to the lease of the premises located on Buttrey Street and described as Part of Part 4 on Reference Plan 59R- 11659, Niagara Falls (the "demised premises ") and; BACKGROUND L -1U1 U -'19 2. That the Mayor and Clerk be authorized to execute said Lease Extension Agreement. In 2002, the City and Region jointly purchased the lands described as Parts 2, 3 and 4 Plan 59R -11659 as part of the lands to be developed for a future high rate treatment facility and sewage pumping station. On April 5, 2002, the City and Region entered into a Lease Agreement with the Bridge Commission (the "Lease "), to permit the Bridge Commission to continue to use the demised premises (Part of Part 4 on Plan 59R -11659 with an area of about 0.142 acres) for parking purposes. According to the terms of the Lease, rent was to be negotiated prior to the commencement of the renewal term, 2007 to 2012. Owing to work Toad issues at the Region, these negotiations did not take place until recently. The rent thus remained the same for the period 2007 through 2010. The Region has prepared the Lease Extension Agreement and is recommending that the rent remain at the existing rate of $1,061.11 annually for the remainder of this second term. It is the Region's proposal to continue this second term of the Lease Agreement at the same rate as the initial term and negotiate a new rate for the next renewal term (2012- 2017) if the Lease is renewed. Staff have no basis upon which to question the Region's reasoning and recommendation.

Since 2004 the City of Niagara Falls has partnered with the University of Waterloo to develop a high quality database of it's wastewater collection system that has been used to access pipe conditions and help us to make better decisions on the timing and type of repairs /replacement of the sewer system. Additional research and analysis is proposed to validate existing deterioration models for various types of pipe materials so that more accurate assumptions can be made regarding our PSAB reporting of the amortized value of our wastewater collection system. The partnership involves the Cities of Cambridge, Waterloo as well as the University. Partners have been asked to contribute $20,000 per year for the three year research period. The University intends to leverage these contributions with the National Sciences and Engineering Council to fully fund the project. Three major elements will be included in this project; • Hydraulic Simulation Model - this model will help to quantify the intersection of ground water and surface water flow so that we can better understand the interaction that occurs between leaking watermains and fractured sewers. • Infrastructure Condition Model - this model will define the performance indicators that will be helpful in assessing the need to repair versus replace aging pipes. ovember 8, 2010 2 MW -201 O h� Control and Optimization Model - this model will help us determine approL water /wastewater rates and reserves are needed to ensure a sustainable systen the long term. NALYSIS /RATIONALE order to complete this research it is necessary to have data from existing network ,ty of Niagara Falls, having one of the older systems in the Province, is a good fit t( oject. In the past staff have relied on reactive responses to develop its capital for - r infrastructure replacement. Indicators like, number of breaks, number of blockau pe age have been used to make multi - million dollar decisions. ne proposed models will help the City predict with more accuracy where the risk uulure will be which will allow us to plan, coordinate and properly fund the nece= - eventative maintenance or replacement. he City's contribution in terms of cash and in -kind contribution will put us on the'E- dge of technology and best management practices in the industry. =INANCIAL IMPLICATIONS he City's contribution of $20,000 per year will be funded in the Wastewater Utility B ver the next three years. This contribution represents a new expenditure item ewer budget for 2011. In -kind contributions will include staff time associated wit ollection and coding of data. :CITY'S STRATEGIC COMMITMENT he recommendation is consistent with Council's Strategic Commitment to cont Monitor the efficiency of the organization.

David Landriault FCIA University of Waterloo, Waterloo, Ontario, Canada Municipalities and regions need assistance in addressing the complexities involved in their strategic planning for their water and wastewater investments. To address this need, the objective of the applicants' research is to integrate hydrologic, infrastructure, and control & optimization models into a single strategic planning and analysis system for drinking -water and wastewater network asset management. This will be a critical contribution to the research partners' knowledge -base for implementing Ontario Ministry of the Environment (MOE) financially sustainable drinking -water and wastewater system legislation. It will also help answer other questions. For example, the on -going practice of introducing alternative sources of water such as brown -water and storm -water collection will have a profound impact on the system in the context of this legislation. This impact will be in terms of altering water demand, revenue, pipeline deterioration, sewage treatment requirements over time, etc. For multi - decade -long planning horizons, we need to model and predict the interdependencies and trends of factors such as water and wastewater treatment capacity, consumer demand, level of service, consumers' satisfaction, changes in the water rate, infiltration and inflow, losses in treated water and therefore income, etc. As part of an optimal management strategy, revenues collected from the water rate charged against the billable water consumed would be used to balance all system expenditures, across multi- decade -long planning horizons. We propose to develop the strategic planning and analysis system in partnership with multi -tier water management organizations in order to answer and deal with some of these critical questions. Three major elements will be integrated into the strategic planning and analysis system as follows: First, a hydrological simulation model will be enhanced to quantify the interaction of groundwater and surface water flow with engineered structures representing the water and wastewater distribution. This interaction occurs due to leaking water mains as well as sanitary and storm sewers, Second, an infrastructure model for the watermain and sanitary sewer network will be enhanced. These enhancements are: (1) Further define performance indicators in order to quantify the condition and operation of the infrastructure, (2) Survey and estimate its actual current condition, (3) Project its deterioration over time under potential future operational conditions, and (4) Estimate the present value of the infrastructure as well as inflation in capital works and operation and maintenance. Third, a municipal control & optimization model will be developed to simulate the impact of alternative management strategies. The strategies involve balancing the revenue from prescribed water rates multiplied against the amount of potable water consumed as well as wastewater discharged, against expenses needed to fund the above system expenditures. The optimal management strategy will involve minimizing total costs while maximizing system reliability, with a sustainable capital reserve to account for financial, engineering and hydrologic uncertainties. Partner Contributions: The following partners have been approached to support this research: The City of Waterloo, The City of Kitchener, The City of Cambridge, The Region of Waterloo and The City of Niagara Falls. All partners are asked to contribute $20,000 per year for the three -year duration of this research. The proposal will be submitted to the National Sciences and Engineering Council (NSERC) as a Collaborative Research Development (CRD) grant, with NSERC effectively matching the partners' cash approximately 2- for -1.

That Council adopt the new and updated Environmental Policies to the Official Plan as modified in response to public input. 2 That the amendment be forwarded to the Niagara Region for approval. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The draft policies forwarded to Council on June 28, 2010 have been reviewed in response to public input and have been modified, where appropriate, to address those concerns The draft policies update the Official Plan in accordance with upper tier documents such as the Provincial Policy Statement and Regional Policy Plan. The natural heritage policies of the City's Official Plan have remained mostly unchanged since their approval in 1993. The draft policies have been prepared to reflect the numerous changes and updates done at the Provincial and Regional level to strengthen the protection of the natural environment. Updated mapping on wetlands, water features and woodlands are reflected in the draft schedules and appendices proposed for the Official Plan The City held an open house in November 2009 for the draft policies. Input and comments on the draft policies to update the Official Plan's natural heritage policies were received at the mandatory Public Meeting held and closed on June 28, 2010. In response to the comments received, modifications have been made to the draft policies or mapping. However, in some cases, the comments received would create a conflict with Provincial or Regional policy and could not be reflected in the draft documents. Council deferred adoption of Official Plan Amendment No. 96 (OPA No. 96) at their July 19, 2010 meeting to allow the receiver /manager for Grand Niagara Resort to review the maps in relation to their development. Planning Staff had intended on bringing the policies back to Council in late August however more time was needed by Grand Niagara Resorts and a response deadline of October 8, 2010 was set ember 8, 2010 - 2 - PD -2011 , sponse has been received from Glen Schnarr & Associates Inc on behalf of Gr=f gara Resorts. The main concern expressed were in regards to a Provincially Signifk tland and a Significant Woodland, both located north of the intersection of Brown R Crowland Avenue and the possible further requirements for environmental stu: ugh future planning applications. The hotel /residential portion of the developme wn outside of all identified natural heritage features Provincially Significant Wetland (PSW) mapping was produced by the Minlst' rural Resources and came into effect in January 2010. The City is required b \. vincial Policy Statements (PPS) to prohibit development and /or site alteration with V, accordingly, it is shown on Schedule A to the amendment Significant Woodla also regulated under the PPS to the extent that an environmental impact study - completed prior to any site alteration. The City has included the woodlands map Jrporated into the Niagara Region's Policy Plan into its Natural Heritage pail lsistent with the PPS. It is noted that the woodland at the end of Crowland Avenue , affect the draft golf course layout for Grand Niagara. The PSW would require a Jcation of one hole in the draft design. Through verbal discussions with City staf 7sultant for the developer has recognized that changes are mandatory and have luded on the City's mapping. If need be they will address these matters witi ,pective agencies and not through this amendment. e site specific zoning by -law for the Grand Niagara applies a holding provision 3idential /hotel portion of the development which requires the completion vironmental impact study through the condominium agreement or site plan c( )cess The by -law is currently awaiting approval at the Ontario Municipal Boara nsultant had originally requested that a provision be added to the draft Do empting these lands from the new policies, however, he has recognized tha quirement of the site specific zoning are in line with the draft policies once the r mes into effect. e attached chart identifies the modifications made to the policies based on coma - ceived with the circulation and public meeting as well as where changes could ade pose parties who submitted request for changes have been notified of this eve eeting ST OF ATTACHMENTS Schedule 1 - Modifications Chart ecommended by: t espectfully submitted: 3erardi gd 'ach iuko Alex Herlovitch, Director of Planning, Building & Deveioc Kdn Todd, Chief Administrative Officer PDR\2010 \PD- 2010 -59, AM- 2009 -024, New Enviro Policies - Nov 8 Council.wpd November 8, 2010 - 3 - SCHEDULE 1 Modifications made the April 2010 Draft Environmental Policies PD- 2010 -59 Policy Modification Requested by (please refer to Amendment No 96 as the modifications have resulted in a change in numbering from the draft) 12.1.3 A reference to determine through preconsultation ways to NPCA "minimize potential adverse impacts" of development on adjacent lands is reworded to "avoid or minimize negative impacts ". 12.1.5 This policy on the site design adjacent to natural heritage UEM features is modified the terms so that the terms "no negative impact" is replaced with "no significant negative impacts ". 12.1.10 This policy intends to protect of natural heritage features UEM, regardless of the land use designation currently applying to Grand it. The modification qualifies the natural heritage features Niagara as those identified through an EIS and previously Resorts unmapped. 12.1.12 A policy regarding the Treed Moraine along the Niagara Staff Parkway is included. It was inadvertently omitted in the draft policies. 12 1.20 The last sentence of the policy has been modified by UEM deleting "as previously addressed in sufficient detail in a comprehensive review" so that a scoped EIS is not contingent on a full EIS having been completed previously. 12 1.21 A new policy is added to outline when the extent of an EIS Staff may be reduced. 12.1.23 The phrase "contiguous woodlands and wetlands" is added NPCA to the list of potential linkages and natural corridors in this policy. 12.1.24 In response to a concern regarding the identification of UEM conceptual only corridors on a Schedule to the Official Plan, Potential Natural Heritage Corridors has been removed from Schedule A -1 and added to Appendix III -E A modification to Policy 12.1.24 refers to this change. 12.1.25 A reference to NPCA approval of an EIS has been modified UEM to City or Regional approval. (The NPCA is to be consulted, but is not the approval authority for an EIS). ember 8, 2010 - 4 - PD -2010= 12 1.27 A clarification has been made that the City will consult with Works the appropriate agencies regarding the need for hydrogeological studies. 12.1 32 In order to clarify what is meant be the phrase "a key NPCA hydrologic feature ", it has been replaced with the more descriptive phrase "surface water features such as a water course or wetland or area with a ground level water table ". 12 1 34 The reference to water taking permit approvals has been NPCA modified to clarify that the NPCA will need to be satisfied in terms of water quality and quantity and the Region /City will need to be satisfied in terms of land use and future impacts. 12 1.37 The restriction to development or site alteration below the Grano top of a valley bank has been qualified by adding `unless Niagara approved by the Niagara Peninsula Conservation Authority' Resort5. to recognize such works as bridge abutments, rehabilitation works, etc. 12 1.43 A sentence has been added to this Policy dealing with the J Grano preservation and maintenance of natural areas (including treed areas beyond significant woodlands) to direct the reader to the wooded areas identified on Appendix III. These areas are based on the City's Urban Wooded & Treed Inventory and Assessment Study (1993). 12.2.2 The wording of this Policy has been amended to note that Staff the areas within the Urban Area Boundary that are developed and are within a registered plan of subdivision and thus have been evaluated through an EIS (against the known heritage features) are not shown as adjacent lands on Schedule A -1. The rewording includes the definition of development as per the PPS. 12 2.3 The approval of new environmental mapping is amended to NPC/- apply to "the appropriate authority" rather than just the Niagara Peninsula Conservation Authority. 12 2 13 The 30m vegetated buffer around Provincially Significant NPCA Wetlands as well as fish habitat have been removed from the list of features within the EPA designation and relocated within the ECA designation list of features (Policy 12.2.16). 12.2.16 A new policy has been added to address the vegetated Staff buffer around Provincially Significant Wetlands in terms of identification of its extent through an EIS and the limitation of uses November 8, 2010 -5- PD-2010-59 12.2.26 The protective buffer for fish habitat has been revised to be NPCA in line with NPCA policies such that a 30m is still required for Critical fish habitat but 15m is required for Important and Marginal fish habitat. Changes to Proposed Chanaes to Schedule A Schedules - the 30m buffer surrounding Provincially Significant Wetlands (PSW) or NPCA Wetlands >2ha in size has been removed - fish habitat has been moved to the ECA land use designation and a 15m buffer applied to Important and Marginal fish habitat - a notation (No. 3) has been added to lands owned by Cytec until the status of the NPCA wetlands on those lands have been confirmed (possibly former sludge ponds) Schedule A -1 - add a dotted line to represent the 30m vegetated buffer around PSWs and NPCA Wetlands > 2ha in size - added a notation regarding the 30m buffer as illustrative - fish habitat has been moved to ECA land use designation and a 15m buffer applied to Important and Marginal fish habitat - Potential Natural Heritage Corridors moved to Appendix III -E - the adjacent lands within the Urban Area Boundary that are located within a registered plan of subdivision are removed from the schedule. Changes to -Map 3 to Amendment No. 96 is renamed "Appendix III -A - Inventory of Appendices Natural Heritage Features -Map 1" - Map 4 to Amendment No. 96 is renamed "Appendix III -B - Adjacent Lands to the Inventory of Natural Heritage Features on Appendix III -A" and the legend changed accordingly. -Map 5 to Amendment No. 96 is renamed "Appendix III -C - Inventory of Natural Heritage Features -Map 2" -Map 6 to Amendment No. 96 is renamed "Appendix III -D - Adjacent Lands to the Inventory of Natural Heritage Features on Appendix III -C" and the legend changed accordingly. Other Modification Requests Other suggestions and comments were received from the public input which did not result in modification to the policies. ► Two property owners requested that the natural heritage features identified on their lands be removed. Removal of these features and the associated land use designation would be inconsistent with the treatment of other lands within the municipality and would not be in conformity with upper tier documents. ► It was noted at the public meeting that the mapping did not identify natural heritage features found on the Oldfield Subdivision on the north side of Ramsey Road. The noted features were recently identified through an EIS completed for the subdivision application and are not reflected in MNR or NPCA mapping as of yet. The identification and protection of these features will be accommodated through the current application process. ember 8, 2010 _ 6 _ PD -2011 A suggestion to identify the NPCA lands on Garner Road as EPA woulo inconsistent with the Region's and City's policies to identify publicly owned ia as ECA. A definition for a `dripline' was suggested at the public meeting has not h( added as the term is not used in the policies. The qualification of term `minor' with respect to changes in mapping suggested by the NPCA, is subjective and a detailed description may result + r need for future Official Plan amendments to deal with unforeseen situation. The NPCA has confirmed that diversions to Shriners Creek should be inciu; as the mapping used is the most recent issued (April 2010) No changr- mapping has been made as it must be initiated by NPCA. The diversions w noted at the Public Meeting. A request to have all EIS subject to City approval (instead of Region in cases) would be inconsistent with the Regional Policy Plan.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Requesting Council approve the continuation of the Toys for Tickets program that allows parking ticket recipients the option of donating Christmas gifts in lieu of payment for parking tickets. The program has collected approximately $8,000.00 in gifts over the past three years. The gifts are distributed equally between the two charities supported by the City of Niagara Falls, Project S.H.A.R.E. and the Salvation Army. BACKGROUND Staff researched and found that various other municipalities have had success with this initiative. Residents are happy to help with a charitable donation, and the City can promote goodwill during the holiday season. Staff is recommending the following plan of action and guidelines: the program will be advertised in the local papers prior to and during the campaign. • parking control staff will include information on the windshield of the vehicle when issuing tickets, to inform recipients of the campaign, and the details regarding payment. • eligible parking infractions will be tickets issued between November 8 and December 7, 2010. Tickets may be "paid" in Finance with a donation December 8 to Dec 10, 2010. This will allow city staff to collect the toys in sufficient time for distribution by the local charities. Jovember 8, 2010 2 TS -201( tall has investigated and found out that there is no central "toy drive" organize! pened discussions with numerous charitable agencies regarding this project etermined during that Project S.H.A.R.E. and the Salvation Army are the two prin !ye charitable agencies in Niagara Falls.

Through the implementation of the pool this Plan, the City intends to play a major role in the protectic conservation of resources. Niagara Falls has an abundance of natural heritage features du( location between two Great Lakes and along the Niagara River The within the northerly extent of Carolinian Forests in Canada which bf high number and diversity of plant and wildlife. The conservation ar. use of natural resources is important to ensure that clean air and war, -2- be part of the City's future It is recognized that natural heritage features do not exist in isolation and that the health of these features is intrinsically connected and dependant on the health of heritage features both near and far away. Consequently the function of the natural heritage system shall be assessed on a watershed scale, exceeding lot boundaries, and in some cases, municipal boundaries. Within each watershed area, subwatershed plans and environmental impact studies will be utilized to identify, assess and protect the City's flora, fauna and water resources not only on a site specific, but also on a cumulative basis. General Policies 12.1.1 The City supports an ecosystem approach to the identification, protection and enhancement of our natural heritage resources that addresses: a) the interrelationships between air, land, water, plant and animal life, and human activities; b) the health and integrity of the overall landscape, within and beyond the City's boundaries; and c) the long term and cumulative impacts on the ecosystem. 12.1.2 The City shall encourage and support the efforts of the Ministry of Natural Resources, the Niagara Peninsula Conservation Authority and the Region of Niagara to protect, maintain, rehabilitate or improve the quality of the natural heritage features resources within the municipality in accordance with environmental and natural resource management legislation. 12 1.3 Land owners shall be encouraged to consult with the Ministry of Natural Resources, Niagara Peninsula Conservation Authority and the Region of Niagara prior to commencing work of any kind on or adjacent to an area containing natural heritage resources in order to determine the means by which to avoid or minimize negative impacts. 12.1 4 Schedules A and A -1, along with Appendices III -A, III -B, III -C, III -D and III -E to this Plan detail the natural heritage features that are located within the EPA or ECA designations of this Plan as well as linkages and natural corridors, water resources, Municipal Drains and other natural heritage features 12.1 5 When considering development or site alteration within or adjacent to a natural heritage feature, the applicant shall design such development so that there are no significant negative impacts on the feature or its function within the broader ecosystem. Actions will be undertaken to mitigate any unavoidable negative impacts. 12 1 6 The Natural Heritage Policies shall apply when developme- site alteration is proposed on lands within the City tha' adjacent to a natural heritage feature identified within the Oft Plan of a neighbouring municipality, the Regional Niagara Plan or by the Ministry of Natural Resources 12 1.7 Prior to undertaking major public work projects on or adjac(- an area containing natural heritage resources, the Cit\, consult the Ministry of Natural Resources and /or the Niaf.
