Mayor's Message We are happy to bring you the 2016 Mapleton Community Guide. The overwhelming uptake for the community guide in 2015 was remarkable.

This is a local guide produced in Mapleton with a goal to keep residents and visitors informed on what Mapleton has to offer.

Mapleton is a great place to live, work and play. We are a community rooted in farming traditions, with a variety of outside activities and culture.

We are growing not only agricultural based business and industry but also traditional and innovative enterprises. Our community groups, volunteers and residents are a giving community. Their collective efforts have demonstrated the importance of community and the strength of Mapleton.

We invite our residents and welcome visitors to explore and enjoy the great benefits Mapleton has to offer.

I am honoured to represent the residents of Mapleton as Mayor. It is my goal to have council and staff work together to provide the best results for the community. We are not only planning for tomorrow but for future generations and we must ensure there is investment in Mapleton’s infrastructure to allow for positive growth that will make a lasting impact on our municipality for years to come.

I look forward to everyone enjoying and using this made in Mapleton Community Guide that is a true testament of our community.

Neil Driscoll, Mayor

Mapleton combines solid traditional Canadian values that stem from our agricultural roots with the innovation needed to make our community prosperous and attractive for work and play.

Steps are taken to prevent errors but sometimes they do occur. We are sorry for any inconvenience this may cause. Please contact the Township of Mapleton at 519.638.3313 if you notice an error or omission.

Building Department and By-Law Enforcement Why do you need a building permit?

A building permit is your formal permission to begin construction or demolition. The Township of Mapleton Building Department must approve plans for any new structure, addition, or renovation.

Building permits are necessary to ensure that zoning requirements, fire and structural safety standards are met as required by the Ontario Building Code.

The building department promotes and assists with building development in keeping with Federal, Provincial, County and all other applicable law to ensure safe structures for our residents, businesses and visitors.

Who is responsible for obtaining a building permit?

The property owner is responsible for ensuring there is a building permit for the project they are undertaking. Contractors often apply and obtain permits as part of their contract with the property owner.

When is a permit required?

A permit may be required for:  the construction, renovation or demolition of a building  to change the use of a building  the installation, alteration, extension, or repair of on-site sewage systems A permit is not required for a building occupying an area less than 10 square meters (107 ft²), unless it contains plumbing or is attached to another structure. All buildings must comply with the applicable setbacks of the zone in which the structure is located, as per the Township of Mapleton’s Zoning By-Law. Grand River Conservation Authority approval may also be required for construction projects. Property owners are encouraged to visit www.grandriver.ca to determine if any of their property falls within a GRCA regulated area.

Property Taxes Property tax billing occurs twice a year. Interim billing is sent out in February for March & June installment payments and Final billing is sent out in August for September and November installment payments.

Failure to receive a tax bill does not relieve the property owner from payment of taxes nor from penalty of late payment. If a tax bill for the wrong property is received, return it to the municipal office immediately. If a mortgage company is responsible for paying property taxes on your behalf please forward the tax bill to them.

If the property has changed ownership, send the bill to the new owner or return it to the municipal office, indicating who purchased the property. To avoid misdirected mail, please advise the municipal office of any changes in mailing addresses.

Property Assessment The Municipal Property Assessment Corporation (MPAC) has the role of accurately valuing and classifying properties in Ontario in accordance with the Assessment Act and the regulations established by the Ontario Government.

When your municipality/local taxing authority sets property tax rates, your assessed value and classification are used to determine your property taxes. page 14 | section 1

CARBON MONOXIDE IS KNOWN AS ‘THE SILENT KILLER’

BECAUSE YOU CAN’T SEE IT, TASTE IT OR SMELL IT. The only way to detect the presence of the deadly gas is to install a carbon monoxide alarm.

On October 15, 2014, the Ontario Government formally enacted a new law - The Hawkins-Gignac Act - making carbon monoxide alarms mandatory in all Ontario homes at risk of CO. This revision to the Ontario Fire Code, supersedes any existing municipal by-laws.

Now, no matter the age of your home, if you have any oil, propane or gas-burning appliances, furnace or water heater, a wood or gas fireplace, or an attached garage or carport, you must have working carbon monoxide alarms installed near sleeping areas.

ONTARIO’S NEW CO ALARM LAW BRINGS A CONSISTENT LEVEL OF PROTECTION TO ALL ONTARIANS.

For more information visit the Office of the Fire Marshal at www.mcscs.jus.gov.on.ca or contact the Municipal Office. www.mapleton.ca

Trees for Mapleton Mapleton Youth Action Council

Trees for Mapleton is helping farmers adapt to climate change and develop a green infrastructure for the stability of food production and a healthy community.

Wind breaks are a production tool, just like seed, soil, drainage and machinery.

The Mapleton strategy includes wrapping every 100 acres with windscreens, buffering all waterways with trees, wrapping all forest fragments with windbreaks, planting shelterbelts around all farmsteads, linking forest fragments, and planting living snow fences. The potential is 5 million trees in Mapleton Township.

Positive Impacts:      

Increased farm income Ability to adapt to climate change Reduced carbon footprint Decreased road maintenance & salt Increased stability Positive Stewardship

Roots of Mapleton Township

3

The Mapleton area was originally a part of the Queenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Bush held by the government of Upper Canada as Clergy Reserve.

The land in the Township was surveyed in two sections during the 1840s.

The South-East section known as the former Peel Township was surveyed

by Robert Kerr in 1843 and the North-West section known as the former Maryborough Township was surveyed by Patrick Callaghan in 1849. The land at that time was surveyed into farm lots of 200 acres. Most settlers claimed deeds to land parcels from 50 acres to 100 acres.

Who was settling in Mapleton?

People who emigrated from Britain and European countries made their way down the St Lawrence River and Lake Ontario to York, known today as Toronto. From York they travelled northwest to settle on unclaimed land which we live today.

Before slavery was abolished in the United States many black slaves escaped to Canada. There was a thriving black farming community with two schools and a British Episcopal Church in the southern section of the Township before the land was surveyed.

What did Mapleton Look Like?

As the early settlers made their roots and set up lives they quickly established various churches of their choice. Today we can only see the existence of many rural churches by the small abandoned cemeteries that have outlasted the buildings that once dotted the landscape.

The community thrived and activity grew, many small hamlets spread across the Township. In these small hamlets there were tradesmen who supplied the necessities of life for the settlers. Each hamlet attracted blacksmiths, harness and wagon makers, carpenters and masons, shoemakers, tailors and dress makers, millers, and general store keepers. Mail was delivered by stage coach to most of the hamlets and kept people connected.

Able Moore and family on their Farm, Con 16 Lot 17, Peel Township, ca. 1878. www.mapleton.ca

section 3 | page 47

Roots of Mapleton Township Change came when the Grand Truck Railway was built through the Township in the early 1870â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s. Stations were established at Alma, Goldstone, Drayton and Moorefield. The ease of shipping and receiving goods at these centres spelled the demise of most of the other hamlets. Small clusters of houses still show the sites of some of Mapletonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s original hamlets.

Today our township is a mix of large farms and urban settlements with many industries and businesses serving not only our local area but often a global market.
