CURRENT STATUS■ Midland Municipal Cultural Plan (the “Plan”) prepared in
2013 and adopted in 2014
■ Plan specifically contemplates a regional approach to cultural planning:– Section 3.2: “The call for greater collaboration reached beyond
the Town of Midland to the wider region. ... regional alliances and joint strategies set a precedent for similar potential action in the cultural area. … Mechanisms to support ongoing dialogue with neighbouring municipalities on cultural development issues were called for. … The importance of culture and heritage cited in both the Economic Development Strategy Action Plan and the Huronia Area Tourism Strategy open up opportunities to leverage recommendations in these plans to advance a regional cultural agenda.”

■ 2017 Trillium Grant was regionally based
■ Two goals of the Plan are to :
1. “promote cultural activity”; and
2. “celebrate & leverage cultural resources”
CMC believes that the most effective and appropriate was to achieve these goals is on a regional basis by establishing a Joint Cultural Committee (“JCC”)

Council Report
COMMITTEE: Transportation and Environmental Services COMMITTEE CHAIR: Councillor Michel Mayotte SUBJECT: Dedicated Gas Tax Funds for Public Transportation
Agreement (2018/2019 Allocation) REPORT: RDS-2019-05
REPORT HIGHLIGHTS
The purpose of this report is to seek Council’s approval to enter into a new Gas Tax Funding Agreement with the Ministry of Transportation.
Based on the funding formula outlined in the Dedicated Gas Tax Funds for Public Transportation Program, the Town of Penetanguishene is eligible to receive an allocation of $84,174 for this program year (2018/2019).
Two signed copies of the Letter of Agreement and the required supporting by-law are to be submitted to the Division Services and Program Management Office of the Ministry of Transportation by January 31, 2019.
Due to the tight timelines for the submission of the signed agreement and by-law this report has been brought directly to Council for approval.
RECOMMENDATION THAT Council enter into a Letter of Agreement with Her Majesty the Queen in Right of Ontario (as represented by the Minister of Transportation) for the provision of Gas Tax funding for the Town of Penetanguishene Transit System. AND THAT a by-law for the contribution agreement be brought forward by staff for council approval. BACKGROUND The Ministry of Transportation has a formula based funding agreement with each municipality in Ontario that provides a public transit system. Moving forward, the Town will be in a position to receive a funding allocation on an annual basis, provided we continue to sign the Letter of Agreement and implement the necessary by-law. Due to the tight timelines for the submission of the signed agreement and by-law this report has been brought directly to Council for approval. A copy of the executed by-law and two signed Letters of Agreement must be submitted to the Ministry of Transportation by January 31, 2019. The Ministry of Transportation realizes that this deadline may not be achievable considering that the agreement package was not received by the municipality until January 22, 2019.

Appointments to the Main Street Art Ad Hoc Committee PL-2019-05 Page 46 of 124
The Corporation of The Town of Penetanguishene
Council
recruited volunteers to participate on the Ad Hoc Committee using the Midland Mirror and the Town’s social media in December 2018 and January 2019. By January 31, 2019 eleven (11) residents of the Town have put their names forward representing a variety of stakeholder and interest groups including the arts community, downtown businesses, indigenous community, francophone community and interested residents. Additionally, Quest Art School and Gallery has indicated their interest in assisting the Town in the project and in discussion with staff have indicated that they could participate as a resource to the Ad Hoc Committee. Staff are recommending that Council accept and endorse all those who have put their names forward to participate on this Committee and as such have made that recommendation. There is a significant level of interest in the Project and each of the residents have provided some information with respect to their history and interest, which are included in this report as Attachment #1. ANALYSIS The original Staff Report (PD-18-64) that was considered by Council in December of 2018 recommended an Ad Hoc Committee consisting of a total of seven (7) members including a member of Council, representing various stakeholder groups and industry sectors. The proposed stakeholder groups included: Advisory Committee members, Arts Community, Downtown Businesses, Indigenous Community and the Francophone community. The Town has received interest from several residents, more than anticipated, to fill the recommended positions. There has been interest from six (6) residents who have put their name forward from the arts sector and two (2) residents with no specific affiliations who have an interest in assisting the Town on this project. The remaining stakeholder groups all have representation from residents. Given the level of interest from residents in this project, it is recommended by staff that all those submitting their names be appointed to the Ad Hoc Committee. The inclusion of four (4) additional residents to the Ad Hoc Committee does not have any negative impacts and may result in additional engagement by the Town’s residents. It should be noted that staff were anticipating a volunteer from the Indigenous Community after a meeting on February 6, 2019, which unfortunately was cancelled due to inclement weather. Our understanding is that the meeting has been rescheduled and that the volunteers name will be forthcoming prior to February 13, 2019. Staff suggest that the name be added to the Motion as a friendly amendment to the Motion. Additionally, Virginia Eichhorn Executive Director and Curator of the Quest Art School and Gallery has indicated her interest in assisting the Ad Hoc Committee and noted her involvement with similar projects in the City of Kitchener and the Town of Owen Sound. Options for Consideration Option #1 (staff recommendation)

My name is Anthony Orsatti I’m a penetang local and main st business owner and owner of the only art gallery in town . I’ve travelled many continents and worked many projects of many mediums . Art is my complete life for over 2 decades . I am an Award winning artist and painter and I’d love to offer my skills and knowledge in the way of contemporary realism and my view all aspects of life when designing art for the public , many considerations need to be taken when dealing with art in the community and I’d love to help the project. I’m available 24/7 for any meetings and such unless I’m temporarily out of province/ country working an art convention or show for week or two at a time . I can offer a lot of input from different styles to sales pitch and budget, or earth friendly and politically correct art . I’m just a local business and home owner trying to keep the town a beautiful historic place as it should be and encouraging good quality art and its representation. Thanks Anthony Orsatti

Dear Andrea As a resident of Penetanguishene, I am excited to hear about the art project on main street. I am in favor of any and all downtown improvement projects. My husband and I moved to Penetanguishene 3 years ago from Hamilton. I am retired from a job with the Provincial Government. I was very involved in volunteer positions with the City of Hamilton. I am passionate about volunteerism and I am an art appreciate. I have previously served on the Committee Against Discrimination in Hamilton and been a member of Hamilton Art Council prior to moving to Penetanguishene. I have witnessed the boost in the economy in Hamilton due to the support of the arts community and the overall improvements to downtown living. I hope you will consider me as a volunteer for this very important undertaking. Thank you Jean Miller

Hi Andrea I am fairly new to Penetanguishene, moved here 2 years ago. So I hope I qualify to apply to be on the committee. My name is Judith Davies, I am 67, a retired nurse. (Was a nurse for 47 years) I am married to Alan who is also retired. He was a paramedic for 41 years. We live on Poyntz Street. We moved to Penetanguishene as we loved the people and the area. We have so much beauty here. My reason for wanting to be on the committee is, I would love to get involved with a project that will make our little town even more inviting, more beautiful and be even more interesting to visitors. There is so much history here, to be able to tell that history through art would give us such an opportunity to tell Penetanguishene’s story and to preserve it for future generations. I was wondering if this could be considered - There is a very white wall on the left hand side of the road as you leave Penetanguishene, just past Thompson. To see a mural painted on that would really brighten up the entrance to our town and also be a topic of conversation as people leave on county road 93. Thank you for reading my email. I would be honoured to be part of the committee. I can see it would be so much fun and so interesting. Judith Davies

Dear Betty, I would be interested in participating on this project. My wife and I are bicycle touring cyclists and in the last 3 years have bicycled over 10,000 kms through small towns in Canada and the USA. The art in some of the towns we bicycled through is what always makes us remember them by. I would be happy to compile some photographic images as examples. Look forward to your response.

19 Maria Street Penetanguishene, Ontario L9M 1L5 January 2, 2019 Town of Penetanguishene 10 Robert Street West Penetanguishene, Ontario L9M 2G2 Dear Ms. Betty and Town of Penetanguishene Council, For the past 16 years, I have dedicated my efforts, as both a staff member and volunteer, to planning and promoting arts and cultural pursuits in our area. I was born and raised in Penetanguishene and continue to make it my home. I am excited about the prospect of including public art as part of the recent reconstruction project and I ask that you consider my application to be a member of the Main Street Art Project Committee. I am currently employed as the Cultural Development Coordinator with the Town of Midland and previously I was the Director of Quest Art School + Gallery. My association with Quest Art began in fall 2002 and the development of their original gallery located in Penetanguishene. I possess a Bachelor of Fine Arts from the University of Ottawa and I can contribute a knowledge of contemporary visual arts in Canada, in addition to the contacts and personal relationships I have with many Simcoe County-based artists, cultural organizations and groups. I am able to conceive, plan, develop and secure the partners and the funding necessary for small- and large-scale projects, such as Quest Art’s recent North Simcoe Canada 150 Mural Project. In my role with the Town of Midland, I formulate new learning, networking and promotional opportunities for local creatives and continue to develop community engagement projects. I have extensive grant-writing experience and knowledge of funding opportunities and have discussed this project with Deputy Mayor Dubeau. I thank you for considering me for this committee and I may be reached at [email protected] or 705-427-2324 should you have any questions. Sincerely, Karen Lacroix Mealing

COMMITTEE: Council COMMITTEE CHAIR: Mayor Doug Leroux SUBJECT: Community Based Strategic Plan
REPORT: CAO-2019-01
REPORT HIGHLIGHTS
The development of a Community Based Strategic Plan was recommended by the Service Delivery Review undertaken in 2017;
Strategic plan would identify the Town’s principles and values, the collective will of the residents, and identify physical and fiscal resources;
The benefit of having a Strategic Plan is that it will improve accountability and transparency, provide clear defined direction for departments, staff and the organization, and the tools to measure performance against the plan;
A large part of the project will be engaging the residents, businesses and other community service based groups and agencies to identify and define the key values held by the community with respect to services and future vision for the town;
Through the Town’s procurement process, staff are proposing to engage a consultant to facilitate and conduct the entire strategic planning process with assistance from Council, staff and the community.
RECOMMENDATION THAT Council approve the issuance of a request for proposal for consultation services for the development of a Community Based Strategic Plan; AND THAT Staff proceed as per the Town’s procurement policy with the tendering process; AND FURTHER THAT Staff report back to Council with an update following the Request for Proposal process. BACKGROUND The last strategic plan adopted by Council was for the 2014-2017 term and was created internally. It was identified in the Service Delivery Review performed by Blackline Consulting Inc. in 2017, that the Town’s strategy required updating to reflect the Town’s current situation, the needs of the constituents and key performance indicators. The development of a strategic plan will provide clear defined direction for departments and the ability to measure performance against plan metrics which will enhance accountability and transparency and the efficient operation of the Town.

ANALYSIS Being the start of a new term of Council, it’s the ideal time to analyze the critical issues that face the community and require Council’s attention. It’s recommended that, with the guidance and assistance of Council and staff, this process be completed through the engagement of a neutral and objective third party, experienced in the development of strategic plans. Key deliverables for the project are:
Developing a corporate mission, strategic vision and related goals
Determining key values and principles to guide our direction and decision making
Recommending actions to achieve strategic vision and goals
Listing strategic issues relevant to Penetanguishene
Summarizing the strategic planning process
Providing performance measurement tools for application during the implementation phase
Developing a communication and marketing plan A large part of the project will be engaging the residents, businesses and other community service based groups/agencies to identify and define the key values held by the community with respect to key services and future vision. A part of that process will include a comprehensive public consultation process that will be guided by the consultants. The goal and intent of the plan is to achieve a strategic scope that is reflective of the principles, values, physical and fiscal resources, and collective will of the residents. By focusing on a longer term and vision for the Town, the plan can be utilized over a longer period and by more than one term of Council. Rather than simply reacting to change, the Town can use the strategic planning process to also examine issues and concerns. Project goals will include creating a community that is sustainable, providing opportunities for business and economic growth, ensuring healthy lifestyles for our residents and protecting social and cultural connections. While community sustainability doesn’t necessarily imply growth or expansion, it does imply change. The decisions made, or not made, will shape how a community develops and prospers. The results of this project not only have countless benefits for Council but it will assist staff in making appropriate recommendations that are consistent with the corporate mission, vision and goals. From the issuance of the RFP for the consultant to the engagement of the residents and considering time for analysis and report preparation, this process could take in excess of six months. Staff are therefore recommending that the RFP for consulting services be issued immediately upon approval. This will also permit this term of Council to derive the maximum benefit from the developed plan.
