Creemore development contingent on sewage capacity

by Trina Berlo Clearview Township officials have initiated a Creemore Water and Wastewater Master Servicing Plan to look at options for freeing up more sewage capacity and allow for development to proceed.

The 18-month process will include public engagement to address all problems at the waste water treatment plant (WWTP), and lead to a design process for expansion.

Township staff and engineers at RJ Burnside have been working with Creemore developers (Tribute, Zeng and Lamb), who have agreed to pay for the $350,000 study.

In the meantime, Clearview staff has initiated an Assimilative Capacity Study (ACS) of the Mad River, required to take the WWTP from its constructed capacity of 860 m3/d beyond 1,400 m3 of capacity, to accommodate the wastewater discharges from the

anticipated development. Due to a number of factors relating to the membrane filtration system, the capacity of the WWTP is very limited and well below the intended capacity.

Te s t i n g h a d i n d i c a t e d t h e r e was WWTP capacity for 108 new residential units but Clearview’s Director of Public Works Mike Rawn said that forecast has now been reduced by about 10 per cent. That capacity has been allocated to condo units, which use less capacity than single detached homes, the development of the old school, and some infill lots.

Outside of the scope of the Master Servicing Plan, Tribute’s consultants are in discussion with Creemore Springs Brewery with regards to a pre-treatment concept for brewery effluent.

“The Wastewater Treatment plant design will be heavily influenced by what is done with effluent from

Creemore Springs Brewery,” states a memo from engineer Jeff Langlois.

“Ultimately, the wastewater treatment plant needs to be capable of handling the discharges from Creemore Springs Brewery (as defined in the overstrength agreement) in combination with the discharges form other current and future users of the municipal system.”

Tribute Communities is looking to apply the allocation to the Alliance Homes development, off Mary Street.

Plant improvements, more frequent replacement of the membranes, and possible pre-treatment of the brewery’s effluent would all help to free up interim capacity while a plant expansion plan goes through the ministry approval process and is potential completed post-2024.

“Between all of these engineering companies, I’m sure we can come up with some good things for Creemore,” said Rawn.

Stayner – Clearview’s Canada Day Parade organized by volunteers from the Central Ontario ATV Club. The Parade starts at 10 a.m. at Station Park and ends at the Stayner Arena.

Join in the Stayner Heritage Society’s celebrations at Centennial Park, 240 Brock St. from 1 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. with Heritage Homes tours, silent auction, photo booth and family activities, plus the country sounds from The Dusty Roads Band. Also, 150 free cupcakes will be given out to commemorate the town of Stayner’s 150th anniversary.

Free public swimming at Stayner Centennial Pool, 255 Oak St., is from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m.; free lane swim from 5 p.m. to 6 p.m.; free public swim, from 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m., sponsored by the Stayner Lions Club.

Throughout Clearview – Between June 29 and July 3, find 13 flags in local parks and heritage sites throughout Clearview Township.

There are 18 geocaches hidden throughout Clearview Township. This week, there will be Canada Flag pins in the containers. Find the geocaches and keep the pins.

Businesses are encouraged to decorate and take part in the Clearview Chamber of Commerce best-dressed contest. Snap a picture and email to clearviewchamber@gmail.com. Win a 2023 Chamber membership.

Group aims to take on Mad River restoration projects

by Trina Berlo Local community members are partnering with staff at the Nottawasaga Valley Conservation Authority (NVCA) to undertake restoration work along the Mad River.

Volunteer Jesse Wright, who works as a local fishing guide and fish habitat restoration coordinator with Water First, is leading the community effort, in partnership with the NVCA’s Restoration Biologist Laura Wensink and Stewardship Services manager Fred Dobbs.

Wright said through other watershed related volunteer work he came to know Dobbs, who was interested in putting together a group of people willing to do restoration work on the Mad River.

The NVCA looks to work with local volunteers on projects such as this, and will match funds raised.

“Our community did have a big response as far as openness to volunteer to do some work,” said Wright.

Throughout the spring, the Friends of the Mad River have been meeting and planning habitat restoration work in partnership with the NVCA. To build momentum, the group has planted trees, and on Tuesday they hauled tires out of the river at Glencairn Conservation Area. They are gathering data and monitoring the river in preparation for

a larger scale bank stabilization project between Creemore and Glencairn that has been identified as a priority.

Working with landowners, the group will work to stabilize the bank of the river and add tree cover to stop erosion and create shade. The eroding bank is eating away at the adjacent farmland at a significant rate but also increases the phosphorus level of the river when the nutrient rich soil gets into the water, while the vegetation keeps the river at the optimum temperature for healthy fish habitat.

“When the river runs on a hot day through an area that has no shade or cover it heats up to a point that it can change 2˚C over two kilometres and that can be the difference between suitable fish habitat and an area that trout [and other species] can’t live in because it’s too warm,” said Wright.

For the initial phase of the habitat restoration project, the Friends of the Mad River will be looking to raise between $8,000 and $10,000 this year to support data collection and design plans.

The group is currently investigating ways to accept donations. Anyone wishing to get involved or support the project financially is welcome to contact Wright at jkwright.79@gmail. com.

CARA CORNER

CARA held its Annual General Meeting last Saturday at the Station on the Green. This was our first in-person meeting in three years so it was great to see everyone again. We noted with great regret the loss of two directors since the pandemic began: Jim McCartney who had been active for many years, and more recently, Peter Goddard who was also a great supporter.

Recent activities have included the campaign against ATVs on Creemore roads, participating in the review of the Clearview ward system and continuing to monitor local land developments.

We have also contributed modest amounts to support local initiatives. The financial statements were presented, directors elected and officers announced. We then reviewed the status of local real estate development that CARA has been monitoring.

Alliance – CARA settled its OMB case with Alliance and Clearview in December 2007. CARA has always been in favour of development, but at the time we had tried to scale back 485 homes being built on that 100-acre property, which would have doubled the size of Creemore. We have good settlement agreements with Alliance and Clearview that include phasing of the development and a Liaison Committee.

The first release of homes (15) has been built and sold. Alliance plans to build the remaining 10 homes along Mary Street (a four-plex and a six-plex), likely as condominiums. In 2021, Alliance sold the rest of the development to Tribute Homes, a large, well-respected developer and home builder in the GTA. THE BRIX – This development by MDM Developments was formerly the MacIntosh Meadows of Creemore development. CARA was not a participant in the OMB hearing that gave MacIntosh approval to build 72 condominium units. The CARA Board met with the new owner of this development a couple of years ago. As we have no settlement agreement covering this development, we follow progress in the press. It appears from last month’s Globe and Mail article that sales are going well with prices of the units continuing to increase rapidly.

Old School Redevelopment – Based on the publicly available information, this project looks like a good addition to housing stock in the community. It appears they must have resolved the flood plain issue with the Nottawasaga Valley Conservation Authority.

Culture and Sports Hall of Fame inductees for both 2019 and 2021 and supporters gathered June 14 for a dinner and awards ceremony at the Stayner Community Centre, where he newly renovated entranceway will serve as the permanent home of the Hall of Fame, showcasing the winners on plaques and interactive display.

2019 Young Leader in Sport Award – Sarah Harris In 2019, at the age of 21, Sarah Harris stepped up to be head coach of the New Lowell Minor Baseball Junior Rookie Team. Without a certified coach the team was at risk of folding. She devoted countless hours on and off the field teaching the players aged 6-8 the skills of the game, promoting self-esteem, developing social skills, and game preparation. Harris continues to be an active member of the local executive.

LETTER

Time to rethink this and truly “Shop Local” Editor: The June 3 Creemore Echo had an advertisement for a wonderful beef and wine pairing dinner, featuring Ontario beef and wines from California.

California, USA is 4200 kms away, or 40 hours driving. British Columbia, Canada, Okanagan wines are a bit closer at 3900 kms away, or 39 hours of travel. The province of Ontario has over 180 wineries to chose from, many

of them award winning and located just a couple hours south of Creemore. Or closer yet, Creemore Hills Winery is five kms away or a six-minute drive.

Granted, wines from California really are quite tasty but maybe it’s time to rethink this and truly “Shop Local” to support local businesses… or least the Canadian economy.

SPORTS

Cardinals take two from Twins The 11U Creemore Cardinals improved their record in the York-Simcoe Baseball Association regular season to 8-0 on Sunday with two wins over the Midland-Penetang Twins.

In Game 1, Reece Fuller, Cooper Duits and Brayden Foulds combined to strike out 14 batters over five innings in a 12-3 win. Thomas Weldon had two hits including a three-run home run.

In the second game Keenan Reynolds led the way going two-for-two at the plate with a pair of walks, three runs, three stolen bases and two RBI in a 12-2 win. This pair of wins puts the Cardinals in first place in the 11U select division with eight regular season games remaining.

The Cardinals are in Chatham this weekend for their second tournament of the season.

9U baseball This week, the Creemore Cardinals hosted Ivy. An all around great effort from the team came up short but the team continues to improve every week.

Great plays came from Seth, Si, Adair and Noah on the infield with Zygy scoring the lone run. Griffin’s hard hit double was the highlight at the plate.

The Cardinals host Angus on Saturday.

ZONING BY-LAW AMENDMENT - NOTICE OF PASSING The Decision: In consideration of all written and oral submissions made relating to the subject Zoning By-law Amendment, the Township of Clearview Council has made a decision regarding an application to amend Comprehensive Zoning By-law 06-54. The amendment has been considered under the requirements of the Planning Act RSO 1990 c.P.13 and applicable regulations. The purpose of this notice is to make you aware of Council’s decision on the matter.

Date of Passing: By-law No.: 22-26 Last Date of Appeal:

Monday June 13, 2022 Thursday July 14, 2022

The Proposal: Project No.: 2022-033 The purpose of the meeting is to provide notice that the Council for The Corporation of the Township of Clearview will be holding a public meeting under Section 34 of the Planning Act, R.S.O. 1990, C.P. 13 as amended, to inform the public and provide opportunity for public comments on the proposed update to Comprehensive Zoning By-law 06-54 for the Municipality of the Township of Clearview.

The Zoning By-law is a statutory document that sets out the specific permitted land uses and development standards that apply to properties in the Township of Clearview.

Our Zoning By-law was passed in 2006 and is generally amended each year in order to make sure that it is as accurate and up-to-date as possible.

The purpose of the proposed housekeeping amendment seeks to simplify wording and clarify the intent of ambiguous provisions and proposes: 1. To reduce the pool setbacks in the Agricultural and Rural Zones to 1.8 metres; otherwise, many smaller lots in these zones would not be able to accommodate pools given the current larger setbacks.

2. To ensure absolute clarity, we have added that Bed and Breakfasts are not short-term rentals, even though this is already covered off in the definitions.

3. In the Agricultural Zone an asterix “ * ” is used to describe what uses are permitted on lots that have been created as surplus dwelling lots. These lots are generally 1.5 hectares in area or less. The uses permitted on these small lots are: conservation uses, passive recreation use, single detached dwelling, accessory dwelling unit, home occupation, home industry and single accessory apartment.

The intent of the provision is to ensure that these residential properties in the agricultural area are used for residential purposes.

This amendment will serve the public and staff better as it can take research to determine whether a lot was a surplus dwelling lot and sometimes the history is unclear. Further, regarding these uses, lots that are 1.5 hectares in area or less should be treated consistently.

4. In the Agricultural Zone, clarify where to measure the setback for a farm produce sales outlet and accessory farm winery and cidery from a neighbouring dwelling.

5. Reduce the front yard setback in the Rural Zone from 15 metres to 10 metres to match the Agricultural Zone setback.

6. Add a Fire Hall as a permitted use in the Institutional Zone.

7. Change the exception number of the C1-6 Zone at Huron and Ontario Street to a C1-8 as staff found that there are two C1-6 Zones that are different, a duplication that was not found when the By-law was originally passed in 2006. There is no other change other than the number assigned, however, the whole subsection has to be deleted and replaced in order to distinguish it from the other C1-6. This is done in the text of the By-law as well as on the schedule to the By-law.

8. Amend the definition for “attached” as the public has misinterpreted the words ‘enclosed breezeway’. This is proposed to be replaced with the wording ‘enclosed corridor’ along with more detailed clarification.

9. Amend the definition of passive recreation to be more clear.

10. Delete the accessible parking space regulations from the definition of a parking space that are inconsistent with the accessible parking regulations found in the General Provisions

section of the By-law.

11. Delete Plan 111 from the Lot of Record definition to recognize this Plan located in Duntroon in the Special Policy designation of the Official Plan.

12. Remove the Environmental Protection Zone that covers legally existing dwellings on the following properties: a) 2581 Fairgrounds Road South; b) 2203 Concession 11 South c) 6205 Concession 6 Sunnidale d) 2403 Concession 8 South Nottawasaga e) 2531 Creemore Avenue f ) 3778 Centre Line Road g) 5262 Concession 2 Sunnidale h) 11 and 2849 Hogback Road i) 11, 15 and 17 Elgin Road j) 5247, 5253 and 5259 County Road 9 13. Correct the zoning on the Edenvale Airport Lands from the Airport Industrial Zone MA-1 and MA-1(H1) to the Airport Industrial Zone MA Zone.

14. Correct by adjusting and shifting the Environmental Protection (EP) zoning on 5560 and 5572 Sunnidale-Tosorontio Townline to reflect the historically cleared area.

The effect of the proposed amendment is to make the By-law more current, easier to understand, consistent and more defensible.

The subject application concerns all lands within the Township of Clearview.

There are no associated applications.

Your Rights to Appeal: A notice of appeal must: i. be filed with the clerk of the municipality, ii. set out the reasons for the appeal, and iii. be accompanied by the fee required by the Local Planning Appeal Tribunal.

Only individuals, corporations and public bodies may appeal a by-law to the Ontario Land Tribunal. A notice of appeal may not be filed by an unincorporated association or group. However, a notice of appeal may be filed in the name of an individual who is a member of the association or the group on its behalf.

No person or public body shall be added as a party to the hearing of the appeal unless, before the by-law was passed, the person or public body made oral submissions at a public meeting or written submissions to the council or, in the opinion of the Ontario Land Tribunal, there are reasonable grounds to add the person or public body as a party.

For more information on making an appeal, please visit: https://olt.gov.on.ca/.
