-an independent legal review by E. Veldboom of the law firm the TGB is using for the Macey Bay Trailer Park project (Wier Foulds) found that the advice provided by Wier Foulds was reasonable and sound.

– Council is considering having, or arranging for, a public meeting on the Site Plan for the Macey Trailer Park sometime after the OMB decision. A peer review of all the supporting reports will also be completed.

– a public meeting was held to review the potential changes to our Official Plan and Zoning Bylaws as a result of the Provincial  requirement to protect municipal water intakes from contaminants (Source Water Protection). There are 3 intakes in or near the Township – Port Severn, MacTier and Tay Township. Chemical usage at the Oak Bay Golf Course will be reviewed.

-due to staffing issues, the TGB is not able to coordinate the Canada 150 Gala planned for the Delawana on June 30, 2017. If anyone is interested in coordinating this evening event please contact me directly. Much of the organization has already been done.

-costs estimates for a third party consultant to review and conduct a lake wide survey on revisions to the Gross Floor Area limit of cottages on Six Mile Lake were between $10K and $25K. Council requested that the two lake Assoc. meet with the TGB planner to determine common ground and discuss the need and who pays for any survey. A planning report is expected in the next few months.

-The video taping of the Committee of Adjustment proceedings will begin with the new Council in Jan. 2019.

-staff and a few Councillors will be working on a report to Council for snow removal in driveways and private road entrances. This is more of a senior’s issue.

-an updated Animal Control By-law was approved. Council requested that the requirement for seasonal residents to purchase dog tags be removed from the update since most have city tags already.
