Request for Proposal (RFP) packages were sent to 5 insurers, and the Municipality has received 3 bids in response. The lowest bid was received from BFL Canada, which was quoted at an annual premium of $200,803 + PST. Staff is recommending that the quote from BFL Canada be accepted for the period of April 1, 2013 to April 1, 2014, with the option to renew annually for a maximum of 3 annual renewals.

3 THE CORPORATION OF THE MUNICIPALITY OF KINCARDINE Council Agenda Page 3 of 12 Wednesday March 13, 2013 Origin: Expiry of current policy Existing Policy: GG.2.17 Procurement Policy Analysis: The Municipality of Kincardine s insurance policy with Jardine Lloyd Thomson is expiring on April 1, As per the Purchasing and Procurement Policy GG.2.17, for professional services $40,000 and above, a Request for Proposal (RFP) process must be followed. The RFP included the ability to extend the contract on an annual basis not exceeding 3 renewals, dependent on the performance and service provided. The 2013 operating budget includes $240,000 for insurance costs. The Municipality of Kincardine solicited proposals from the following insurers/brokerage firms: Stevenson & Hunt Miller Insurance Brokers/Frank Cowan Company OMEX Jardine Lloyd Thomson (JLT) BFL Canada Staff has reviewed the submissions in detail, and has summarized the key points in this report. Proposals were submitted by 3 firms, with annual premiums quoted as follows: (1) Frank Cowan - $217,016 (2) JLT - $218,746 (3) BFL - $200,803 The criteria used to evaluate the submissions consist of the following: A. Completeness of submission and project appreciation: The Municipality has requested $5 million primary coverage with a $45 million umbrella policy, for total coverage of $50 million. As JLT is our current insurer, their quoted premium for 2013 reflects this coverage. BFL s insurance coverage is also for $50 million, comprised of 2 layers: 1. Primary Policy - $5 million per occurrence/$10 million aggregate 2. Excess Policy - $45 million per occurrence These 2 policies work together seamlessly so that if a claim was to breach the primary limit of $5 million, the Excess policy would drop down to provide coverage up to the Excess policy limit. The Primary policy is the

4 THE CORPORATION OF THE MUNICIPALITY OF KINCARDINE Council Agenda Page 4 of 12 Wednesday March 13, 2013 first responder to all of the Municipality s liability claims. Only when a claim breaches the $5 million primary limit or when the $10 million primary aggregate is exhausted, would the Excess policy be triggered into action. Cowan s insurance coverage is also for $50 million, comprised of 3 layers: 1. Primary Policy - $15 million per occurrence/no aggregate 2. Follow Form Excess Policy - $10 million 3. Excess Policy - $25 million/$25 million aggregate To summarize, all 3 policies provide the Municipality with total liability coverage of $50 million as requested. The effect of layering essentially allows the insurer to reduce the premium, as the primary layer is the more expensive coverage and the umbrella/excess policy is less expensive to purchase. Most claims do not exceed the $5 million primary limit. Overall insurance coverage across all 3 firms was comparable, however there were some differences identified: Volunteer accident insurance: JLT s premium did not include this coverage, and if added this would cost the Municipality an additional $750 Voluntary medical payments: Cowan s premium did not include voluntary medical payment coverage Voluntary payment for property damage: Cowan s premium did not include this coverage Owned Automobile coverage: BFL s coverage provides replacement cost for vehicles, regardless of age. JLT s coverage provides replacement cost for vehicles less than 20 years old, and cash value for vehicles beyond 20 years old. This is increased to 25 years for fire vehicles. Cowan s coverage is similar to JLT s which is replacement cost on vehicles less than 25 years old. Given the high replacement cost of fire vehicles, the loss exposure is greatly reduced under BFL s coverage. B. Experience JLT: The Municipality has been insured with JLT for almost 15 years, since They are an established company providing municipal insurance management and risk management services for many years. They are very familiar with our Municipality and they have a strong relationship with us. JLT will also continue to provide aviation liability insurance coverage and volunteer firefighter insurance coverage, as these have been specifically excluded from the RFP. Cowan: This insurer is a leader in providing specialized insurance programs and risk management services to municipalities across

5 THE CORPORATION OF THE MUNICIPALITY OF KINCARDINE Council Agenda Page 5 of 12 Wednesday March 13, 2013 Canada. Through this arrangement, the Municipality would deal with Miller Insurance (located in Kincardine) as our broker. BFL: This broker is the largest privately-owned commercial insurance brokerage and consulting services firm in Canada. They have experience with all tiers of municipalities, and local public sector clients include: Township of North Huron, Municipality of Bluewater, and Municipality of Morris Turnberry. C. Services Offered All three firms are able to provide Risk Management and Claims Management services at no additional cost, which was specifically requested by the Municipality. This would include contract wording review, staff training, and claims analysis, and providing guidance and advice on risks affecting the public sector. D. Proponent s Financial Statements/Stability All three firms have provided financial statements for their associated insurance companies. No issues have been identified in this area. E. References Submitted All three firms have provided at least 3 municipal references as requested. Staff has contacted some of these references to gather more information. No significant issues have been identified through this process. F. Price Of the 3 quotes provided, BFL Canada has quoted the lowest annual premium at $200,803 (before PST). This is $17,943 (or 8.2%) less than JLT s quotation, and $16,213 (7.5%) less than Cowan s quotation. BFL s premium also included Voluntary Accident, which JLT did not include, as well as Voluntary Medical Payments, Voluntary Payments for Property Damage, and Incidental Garage Operations, which Cowan did not include. G. Interview Staff has been in contact with all 3 firms to clarify certain points contained within the proposals submitted. Recommendation: Based on the information submitted by all 3 firms, staff recommends that the insurance proposal for the period April 1, 2013 to April 1, 2014 be awarded to BFL Canada. Although the Municipality has a long-standing relationship with JLT, when insurance coverage and risk management options were compared across the 3 firms, the significantly lower premium provided by BFL makes this firm the recommended option. Community Plan and Integrated Community Sustainability Plan (ICSP) Considerations: N/A

6 THE CORPORATION OF THE MUNICIPALITY OF KINCARDINE Council Agenda Page 6 of 12 Wednesday March 13, 2013 Financial Considerations: The budgeted amount for 2013 for insurance costs, excluding aviation liability and volunteer firefighter coverage amounts to $240,000 plus PST. If the recommendation option is approved, the Municipality will be under budget by approximately $30,000. Options: 1.

THAT the Municipality of Kincardine Council approve the retention of the existing insurer, Jardine Lloyd Thomson, for the period April 1, 2013 to April 1, 2014 for the premium amount of $218,746 + PST. 3. THAT the Municipality of Kincardine Council approve the acceptance of Frank Cowen for insurance services for the period April 1, 2013 to April 1, 2014 for the premium amount of $217,016 + PST. 4. Do nothing at this time. Preferred Option: Option 1 Date to be considered by Council: Matters Arising CAO s Comments: I concur COW RECOMMENDATION (B) TRE Subject: Ontario Regulation 284/09 Report Summary: This report is being presented to Council in order to meet the requirements of Regulation 284/09 under the Municipal Act, Ontario Regulation 284/09 allows the Municipality to exclude from their annual budgets amortization, post-employment expenses, solid waste landfill closure and post-closure expenses; however the regulation does require that the Municipality report on the impact of these excluded costs. Municipalities must prepare a report about the excluded expenses and this report must be adopted by resolution. Origin: Ontario Regulation 284/09 Existing Policy: None

7 THE CORPORATION OF THE MUNICIPALITY OF KINCARDINE Council Agenda Page 7 of 12 Wednesday March 13, 2013 Analysis: Ontario Regulation 284/09 allows a municipality to exclude from its budget the estimated expenses all or a portion of the following: 1. Amortization expenses 2. Post-employment benefits expenses 3. Solid waste landfill closure and post-closure expenses If any of these expenses are excluded from the budget, the Municipality shall (a) prepare a report about the excluded expenses; and (b) adopt the report by resolution. The Municipality of Kincardine s 2013 budget, passed on February 21, 2013, excluded the following: 1. Amortization expenses of $5,328,000. Total amortization expense for 2012 is $6,075,000, and the 2013 budget includes $747,000. The annual financial statements include amortization expense on tangible capital assets as required by PSAB standards. Although the Municipality s 2013 budget does not include amortization expense in its entirety, provisions were made for contributions to capital and transfer to reserves funds for capital expenses amounting to $3,893,000. Therefore the overall net impact of amortization exclusion is $2,182, Future post-employment benefits expenses. PSAB standards do not require liabilities associated with post-employment benefits to be fully funded by setting aside any portion of the accumulated surplus as reserves and reserve funds. Employee Future Benefits include non-pension retirement liabilities for sick leave, extended health care, dental and life benefits, and WSIB benefits. Independent actuarial reviews are conducted to estimate the liability for financial reporting. In 2012, the expense recorded was $6,900 which would be a reduction to the accumulated surplus had this been included in the 2013 budget. 3. Solid waste landfill closure and post-closure expenses. PSAB standards do not require liabilities associated with solid waste landfill closure and post-closure care activities to be fully funded by setting aside any portion of the accumulated surplus as reserves and reserve funds. The 2012 expense recorded for the estimate in change was $184,000. The impact of solid waste landfill closure and post-closure expenses is a reduction to the accumulated surplus and is estimated to be $184,000 in 2013.

As part of the grant program, Enbridge contributes funds for the Enbridge Community Fund which is administered by the Municipality. The 2013 Budget, adopted February 21, 2013 by By-law No , included the sum of $130,300 for the purposes of the Community and Enbridge Community Grants. In the past, Enbridge has provided $50,000 annually, however, for 2013, $60,175 will be contributed. The additional $10,175 was not included in the budget, and therefore, the total grant monies available are $140,475.

19 Municipality of Kincardine Planning Report Application: Zoning By-law Amendment File No.: Z Date: March 6, 2013 TO: FROM: SUBJECT: Chair and Members of the Municipality of Kincardine Planning Advisory Committee Bruce Stickney, Planner for the Municipality of Kincardine County of Bruce Planning & Economic Development Department Application submitted by Wayne and Dale Chipman c/o Paul Wilken to facilitate the construction of a replacement single detached dwelling and sewage system. REASONS FOR AND NATURE OF THE APPLICATION: The lands are designated Residential and Natural Environment and are zoned R1-r Residential One Special and EP Environmental Protection. The applicant proposes to demolish the existing cottage dwelling and accessory building that are partially within the EP zone; and, replace them with a single detached dwelling and tertiary sewage disposal system. The replacement dwelling and sewage disposal system would encroach into the EP zone. The zoning would change from R1-r and EP to R1-ba and EP on the lands to permit development of a replacement dwelling and sewage disposal system on a seasonal road (requiring a limited services agreement ); and, further to change the maximum Lot Coverage (Principal Building) from 20% as required in the By-law for partially serviced lots, to 28% to accommodate the dwelling. Filling and grading of the lot and the design of structures would allow for an adjustment to the EP zone boundary such that the replacement building and sewage disposal system could be wholly contained within the R1-ba zone and would not encroach into the EP zone. CIRCULATION: The application was circulated to the mandated commenting agencies as well as to the public. One letter (see Appendix D ) of concern has been received related to the potential impact to views from Sandy Crescent. SUMMARY: The lands are currently designated for Residential and Natural Environment uses. The proposed development is to the east of the existing cottage, is an improvement to the long-term safety of the site and the Conservation Authority will be able to control design measures within their Permit Area to address the hazard associated with the new dwelling. CONCLUSION: The application is consistent with the Provincial Policy Statement, complies with the intent of the Municipality of Kincardine Official Plan and of the County of Bruce Official Plan. PRELIMINARY RECOMMENDATION: Subject to review of objections and submissions arising from the Public Meeting, I recommend that the proposed Zoning By-law Amendment File No. Z BE APPROVED, in accordance with the draft site-specific By-law attached.

Subject Lands II. MATTERS ARISING FROM AGENCY CIRCULATION Municipality of Kincardine: CBO no concerns. Page 2 Chipman c/o Wilken Z

21 Public Works Building location should be raised to provide proper drainage. COMMENT: Some filling is proposed. Saugeen Valley Conservation Authority (SVCA): A portion of the property is designated Natural Environment in the Municipality of Kincardine Official Plan. The Natural Environment designation recognizes flooding, erosion and dynamic beach hazards associated with the shoreline. The proposal will represent an improvement to the long term safety of the site as the SVCA will control design measures to address the hazard associated with a new building and provide greater setback to the dune features. Therefore, given the intent of the NE designation can be met, provided design details are confirmed..., the SVCA is of the opinion that the proposal appears to be consistent with the Municipality of Kincardine s Official Plan. The SVCA is not opposed to a proposed rezoning of the subject property in order to facilitate the proposed development provided the EP zone is revised to avoid the proposed development. The sewage disposal system will also need to be represented as outside the EP zone. Future development (including decks or other buildings or structures) to the west, north and south of the proposed development, in the EP zone, will not be agreeable to the SVCA. COMMENT: Section D7.5c) outlines the policy for delineation of the Natural Environment Area, as follows: The exact location of the boundaries of the Natural Environment Area shall be delineated in the implementing Zoning By-law. The proposed EP zone will follow the west side of the dwelling and sewage disposal system, such that both will lie wholly within the R1-ba zone, as recommended by the SVCA. Historic Saugeen Metis: HSM has no objection or issues with the proposed zoning by-law amendment, provided that the development maintains a minimum 30 metre setback from the Lake Huron Shoreline. COMMENT: The proposed development will be to the east of the existing developed area and substantially more than 30 metres from the shoreline. III. MATTERS ARISING FROM PUBLIC CIRCULATION A letter was received from a Sandy Crescent resident. Their concern seemed to be that this development may interfere with views of Lake Huron they now enjoy from their property. The R1-Residential One zone permits a Principal Building Height of 10.5 metres. Comment: Sandy Crescent lies north-east of the subject property, and north of the MacCaskill Road allowance (not immediately east); and, Sandy Crescent properties are elevated 10 metres above the subject lands due to their location on the plateau above the ancient shoreline bluff. No impact on the view from Sandy Crescent properties are expected, due to the proposed development. IV. MATTERS ARISING FROM PROVINCIAL INTERESTS, POLICY STATEMENTS OR PLANS Under Section 3(5) of the Planning Act, the Municipality shall be consistent with matters of provincial interest as set out in the Provincial Policy Statement (PPS). Section and Natural Hazards, provides policy directing development away from hazard lands adjacent to the shorelines of the Great Lakes... which are impacted by flooding hazards, erosion hazards and/or dynamic beach hazards, and further that no development shall occur within the hazard areas themselves. However, goes on to explain that development may be permitted where the effects and risk to public safety are minor so as to be managed or mitigated, for example, in accordance with flood-proofing standards, protection works standards, and access standards, where vehicles and people can safely enter and exit the area, where new hazards Page 3 Chipman c/o Wilken Z

22 are not created or existing hazards are not aggravated, and no adverse environmental impacts will result. COMMENT: The proposed development is an improvement over existing conditions on the property and will not aggravate the existing hazards. The setback to dunes will be increased with the result that the proposed development will have no environmental impacts to natural features. An Archaeological Assessment was not requested since the application involved the redevelopment of an existing lot that was extensively disturbed. Upon review of the PPS and relevant policies as identified in Appendix A to this report, the proposed Amendment is consistent with the PPS. V. MATTERS ARISING FROM COUNTY OFFICIAL PLAN The subject lands are designated Primary Urban Community that permits single detached residential development. Section provides a description of Hazard Land Areas and where they apply as follows: Hazard Land Areas include those areas that pose a risk if developed, due to the inherent site conditions, including flood and erosion susceptibility, steep slopes, organic soils or other physical conditions and are shown on Schedule A Although not shown on Schedule A for areas within Local Official Plans, these areas shall be continued within Local Official Plan boundaries, and shall be used in preparation of Official Plans and Zoning By-laws. COMMENTS: The Hazard Land Areas are designated as Natural Environment in the Kincardine Official Plan and are accurately delineated as the EP-Environmental Protection Zone in the implementing Comprehensive Zoning By-law. Upon review of the County of Bruce Official Plan (BCOP) and Primary Urban Communities policies as identified in Appendix A to this report, the proposed Amendment is consistent with the BCOP. VI. MATTERS ARISING FROM LOCAL PLANNING DOCUMENTS I Municipality of Kincardine Official Plan The subject lands are designated Residential and Natural Environment. Section D7.3, describes the Natural Environment designation as those lands having inherent natural hazards and are identified by the Saugeen Valley Conservation Authority. The boundaries of the Natural Environment Area are delineated in a conceptual manner and the exact location of the boundaries of the Natural Environment Area shall be delineated in the implementing Zoning By-law using a separate and restrictive classification and/or be appropriately protected through the use of SVCA Regulations. COMMENT: A single detached dwelling is permitted in the Residential designation. The proposed development will meet the requirements of the Kincardine Official Plan as the SVCA considers the entire property to be within their Regulation Area and will require written permission from the SVCA prior to development. The adjustment to the Natural Environment designation will be delineated and implemented by the proposed Zoning By-law Amendment using an EP zone. Upon review of the Municipality of Kincardine Official Plan (LOP) and relevant policies as identified in Appendix A to this report, the proposed Amendment is consistent with the LOP. Page 4 Chipman c/o Wilken Z

23 II Municipality of Kincardine Zoning By-law The By-law permits a single detached dwelling in an R1 zone. No person shall erect any building or structure, in any zone fronted by a Class Two (2) unless the owner has entered into a Limited Services Agreement with the Corporation. Lots that utilize partial services (i.e. municipal water and private sewage systems) are limited to a maximum Lot Coverage of 20% for the Principal Building (dwelling). This allows sufficient space for a typical Class Four Septic System. COMMENT: The proponent has proposed the use of a tertiary sewage treatment system that would occupy less space on the lot, and in turn permit a greater portion to be used for the principle building (dwelling). The proposed Zoning By-law Amendment would allow the maximum Lot Coverage to be increased to 28%, and require the owner to enter into a Limited Services Agreement. The proposed development will comply with all other provisions of the By-law. VII. None OTHER ISSUES / MATTERS Page 5 Chipman c/o Wilken Z

County of Bruce Official Plan 5.8 HAZARD LAND AREA Introduction Hazard Land Areas generally identify lands that pose a risk if developed, due to the inherent site conditions, but these areas may also include important environmental features. Specifically, Hazard Land Areas include, flood and erosion susceptibility areas, steep slopes, organic soils, or other physical conditions which are severe enough to cause property damage or potential loss of life if the lands were to be developed. Municipalities, Conservation Authorities and the appropriate approval authority shall be encouraged to Page 6 Chipman c/o Wilken Z

25 undertake floodplain and other mapping to define more precisely hazard lands and other environmental protection areas Areas of Application.1 Hazard Land Areas include those areas of identified Provincially Significant Wetlands (Class 1 through 3 wetlands) and Environmental Hazard Areas such as flood and erosion susceptibility areas, hazard lands, steep slopes or other physical conditions which are severe enough to cause property damage or potential loss of life if the lands were to be developed. These Wetlands, Environmental Hazard Areas and Floodplains are shown collectively on Schedule A as Hazard Land Areas..2 Although not shown on Schedule A, mapping for Wetlands, Environmental Hazard Areas and Floodplains shall be continued on within the boundaries of areas also covered by Local Official Plans. Where detailed shoreline, floodplain, slope or wetland mapping exists this mapping shall be used in the preparation of County Official Plan Amendments or Local Official Plans, and Zoning By-Laws. Where new development is proposed and detailed mapping is not available, the proponent shall be required to produce the necessary mapping General Policies.1 It is the policy of this Plan to prohibit any form of development including new residential, commercial, or industrial uses in Hazard Land Areas that would detract from the natural environment or be situated where environmental constraints exist. In addition to Section 3.1 of the Provincial Policy Statement concerning development and site alterations in hazardous lands and sites, the following must be considered... Existing Uses.3 Uses existing on the date of approval of this Plan may be recognized in the Zoning By-Law as legally conforming despite the Environmental Hazard area Zone in the implementing Zoning By-Law. The expansion or enlargement of non-conforming uses shall be discouraged..4 The replacement or rebuilding of an existing building destroyed by natural means beyond the control of the owner may be permitted providing it does not exceed the size or volume of the original building, is located at the same site, unless an environmentally more acceptable site is available and acceptable to the owner which will not aggravate the existing hazardous situation, and is for substantially the same use, subject to the approval of the local municipality and the appropriate approval authorities Great Lakes Shoreline Hazard Areas General Principles.1 Great Lakes Shoreline Hazard Areas are not a separate designation. These areas have been identified by the Province of Ontario and Conservation Authorities on mapping which includes shoreline floodplain, erosion and dynamic beach features Implementation.1 The boundaries of the areas designated as Hazard Land Area on Schedule A are not hard and fast lines, but are accepted as being flexible to some extent. The limits of the Hazard Land Area on the ground should be determined through consultation with the appropriate Conservation Authority, the appropriate Provincial authority, the local municipality, and by a site inspection and evaluation..2 Minor adjustments to the Hazard Land Area boundaries may be made without an Amendment to this Plan, in consultation with the appropriate Conservation Authority or appropriate Provincial authority, providing the abutting land use designation remains unchanged..3 In the absence of more detailed hazard land or environmentally significant area mapping, the boundaries of the Hazard Land Area as shown on Schedule A to this Plan, will be used as guides for the preparation of Zoning By-laws, which will implement the policies of this Plan and more accurately define the boundaries. Detailed hazard land mapping is available for much of the County, through the Conservation Authorities..4 Hazard Land Areas will be placed in a Municipal Zoning By-Law which will prohibit all buildings, structures and uses except those permitted in Section [Permitted Uses (Hazard Land Area)] of this Plan. IV. Official Plan of the Municipality of Kincardine D7 NATURAL ENVIRONMENT AREAS D7.3 General Principles Page 7 Chipman c/o Wilken Z

26 #77 The Natural Environment designation is comprised of those lands having inherent natural hazards such as flood or erosion susceptibility, steep slopes, poor drainage, areas of organic soils, and other physical conditions which, if developed upon, could cause loss of life, property damage, social disruption or result in the degradation of the environment. Council shall, therefore, require these type of lands to be retained in a natural state... The Natural Environment designation as shown on Schedule A is based upon one or more of the following features: c) The one in 100 year flood level along the Lake Huron Shoreline as indicated on the Saugeen Valley Conservation Authority Flood Risk Maps for the Municipality of Kincardine plus a: i) Flooding and Erosion Hazard Limit - being a 15 metre allowance for wave uprush, erosion and other water related hazards, measured horizontally landward from the 100 year flood line; And where appropriate a: ii) Dynamic Beach Hazard Limit - being a dynamic beach allowance of up to 30 metres measured landward from the Flooding and Erosion Hazard limit to recognize areas of inherently changeable accumulations of shoreline sediments. D7.5 Policies Interpretation of the boundaries of the Natural Environment designation should be based upon evaluation of the above information and any other applicable policies of this Official Plan. However, for the exact location of the flood line or other hazardous feature on any property, the owner is advised to review the detailed mapping available at the Saugeen Valley Conservation Authority, and to obtain their input, interpretation, and recommendation. Natural heritage features are identified and can only be modified by the Ministry of Natural Resources. Other provincial ministries shall bo included in consultation when required. Hazard lands are identified by the Saugeen Valley Conservation Authority. Minor adjustments to the boundaries shall not require an amendment to this Plan. The following policies apply to the Natural Environment designation: a) The erection of buildings and structures or the placing or removal of fill of any kind, whether originating on the site or elsewhere, within a Natural Environment Area are generally prohibited. Minor extensions or enlargements of existing buildings and structures shall be discouraged... c) The boundaries of the Natural Environment Area are delineated in a conceptual manner on the attached Schedule A, 'B' and 'C'. The exact location of the boundaries of the Natural Environment Area shall be delineated in the implementing Zoning By-law. d) Development and site alteration shall not be permitted within the floodway portion of the floodplain, as defined by the Regional Storm flood. e) Replacement of existing buildings or structures damaged by natural causes may be permitted if the hazard risk does not increase from the original condition... k) If more detailed Natural Environment and Natural Heritage mapping becomes available and is recognized by the Municipality, or should flood control or similar works be undertaken, to the satisfaction of the Municipality and the Saugeen Valley Conservation Authority, which result in major changes in areas designated Natural Environment, then this Plan may be amended as required. l) It shall be the policy of this Plan that in considering an application for the redesignation of lands designated Natural Environment for other purposes, Council will consider redesignation, if all of the following can be satisfied: i) The hazards can be safely addressed and new hazards are not created or existing ones aggravated. This may include preparation of an engineering study to the satisfaction of Council and the SVCA; ii) No adverse or negative environmental impacts will result, and it has been demonstrated that there will be no negative impacts on the natural features or the ecological functions for which they have been identified. The Municipality, in consultation with the SVCA shall require an Environmental Impact Study to be prepared, at the proponent's expense, in accordance with Section D7.6 of this Plan; Page 8 Chipman c/o Wilken Z

27 iii) iv) Vehicles and people have a way of safely entering and exiting at all times; The development does not include institutional uses, emergency services (excluding emergency services specifically for water rescue), or involve hazardous substances, and; v) The advice, or approval where required, of the Conservation Authority shall be obtained. m) Where development or site alteration is proposed and detailed mapping is not available, the proponent shall be required to produce the necessary mapping. n) It shall be the policy of this Plan that the areas designated Natural Environment shall be zoned in a separate and restrictive classification in the implementing Zoning By-Law and/or appropriately protected through the use of SVCA Regulations. o) Written permission may be required from the Saugeen Valley Conservation Authority pursuant to Ontario Regulation 169/06 Development, Interference with Wetlands and Alterations to Shorelines and Watercourses where development or site grading is proposed within a Regulated Area as shown on schedules filed with the SVCA where such mapping exists or otherwise generally within or near the Natural Environment designation. In areas that are subject to the SVCA Regulation No. 169/06 and where the intent of the Natural Environment designation is being maintained, the Municipality has the option of relying on the regulatory role of the SVCA through their Regulations to implement the intent of the hazards relating to the Natural Environment designation along the shoreline areas of Lake Huron.
