Request for Volunteers
The Town of South Bruce Peninsula is seeking volunteers to participate in the Lead
Sampling Program implemented by the Province of Ontario. In order to participate, your
residence must be connected to a municipal water system.

Sources of Lead in Drinking Water

In the past, lead, a naturally occurring metal, was used in piping, solder, brass fittings
and other water service components. It has also been used in water distribution system
fittings.

Health Concerns

Excessive lead exposure has been linked to decreased intellectual and behavioural
development, hearing loss and birth and fertility difficulties. Unborn children and children
under the age of six absorb lead easily and are more susceptible to the harmful effects
of lead.

Short-term consumption of lead concentrations above 0.01 mg/L does not necessarily
pose risk to human health although the Ontario Drinking Water Standards state that the
maximum allowable concentration for lead in drinking water is 0.01 mg/L.

The Lead Sampling Program and You

When you volunteer to participate in the Lead Sampling Program, you will be contacted
by a Town of South Bruce Peninsula staff member to set up a convenient sampling
appointment.

On your appointment date, you will be visited by Ontario Clean Water Agency (OCWA)
licensed operators who will require approximately 45 minutes of your time. The OCWA
operators will run your tap water to flush the lines. The operators will then wait
approximately 30 minutes before taking the required lead samples. Samples will be sent
to an accredited laboratory for testing.

Volunteers will receive a report outlining the testing results.

Volunteer NOW

Contact the Town of South Bruce Peninsula 519-534-1400 ext 130 to participate in the
Lead Sampling Program.

For more information on lead in drinking water, visit www.ontario.ca/drinkingwater or call

Town of South Bruce Peninsula
Request for Proposals
For

A "Comprehensive Review" Of Land Use Polices and Land
Use Designations Within the Wiarton Primary Urban Area

Prepared by:

COUNTY OF BRUCE
PLANNING & ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT

Wiarton Urban Area Comprehensive Review - Request for Proposals 1
April 24, 2008
1. Introduction

The Town of South Bruce Peninsula invites Requests for Proposals to undertake a
"Comprehensive Review" of land use polices and land use designations for the Wiarton Primary
Settlement Area, as contained within the Town of South Bruce Peninsula Official Plan.

This review will be undertaken in regard to the redesignation of certain lands currently
designated for industrial, commercial, or rural uses, to residential use designation south of the
urban community of Wiarton.

2. Background/Location

The Town of South Bruce Peninsula is a lower tier municipality within the County of Bruce.
The Town consists of the southern portion of the Bruce Peninsula and is bordered to the west and
east by Lake Huron and Georgian Bay respectively.

The Town is the result of the amalgamation of the former Townships of Albemarle and Amabel,
the former Village of Hepworth and the former Town of Wiarton in January 1999. The
community has a population of approx. 8090 with a significant percentage of seasonal residents.

In the early 1990's, prior to municipal restructuring in the County, the Town of Wiarton annexed
lands from the former Amabel Township. The purpose of the annexation was to provide growth
and expansion opportunities for the Wiarton urban area. The lands were subsequently brought
under control of the Town of Wiarton Community Land Use Plan and the Wiarton
Comprehensive By-law. The predominant land use designation for the lands was and still is
"Highway Commercial and Industrial" (Appendix A).

3. Issues

The need for a comprehensive review has been brought about by the range of development issues
within the annexed lands. There have been proposals to redesignate some lands from
"Industrial" to "Residential", and proposals to expand the size of the urban boundary.
Additionally, the Municipality has been struggling with the proper way to plan for and then
provide sewer and water services, storm water management, internal road networks, and
cycle/pedestrian access.

The Municipality is also aware that prior to converting "employment lands" to another use, or
expanding the urban envelope, a "Comprehensive Review", that meets the minimum
requirements of the Provincial Policy Statement (PPS) shall be required (Appendix B).

3.1 Given the types of growth that may be expected to occur in the Wiarton plan boundary, is
there enough land designated for future growth?

3.2 Are the subject lands appropriately designated within the area?

Wiarton Urban Area Comprehensive Review - Request for Proposals 2
April 24, 2008
3.3 Are the existing development polices as found in the exiting official plan adequate to
provide for proper growth for the area over the next 20 years?

3.4 Is there a sufficient rational to expand the limits of the existing urban envelope and/or to
convert some of the employment lands to other urban type designations?

4. Required Elements - Project Delivery and Public Participation

The Council places high value on creativity and innovation in project delivery and public
participation methods. There is a general feeling that standard methods of public participation
are becoming somewhat time worn (such as surveys, open houses, public meetings). This is not
to say that these methods should be ruled out, but we ask those responding to the RFP to use
creativity and imagination in engaging the public in this process.

The following minimum components shall be required:

i) The consultant shall be required to report to a project steering Committee that
shall be appointed by Council. The consultant shall meet with the steering
committee at least once in every proposed project phase;

ii) The consultant shall ensure that the public is engaged in a meaningful way in each
stage of the process;

iii) The consultant shall provide background information/reports in format that is
suitable as supporting documentation for any required official plan amendments,
and zoning by-law amendments.

iv) The Consultant shall ensure that all statutory requirements of the Planning Act are
met.

As a guideline to consultants only, Council would expect the process might include the following
standard elements:

Phase I: Summary of Background information/ Preliminary Issues/Actions Identification
Phase II: Preliminary Issues/Actions Refinement
Phase III: Official Plan Policy Development/mapping; Plan Amendment preparation;
Proposed Zoning By-law amendments.
Phase V: Adoption by local Council

5. Availability of Background Material

It is expected that the successful consultant shall make use of existing background information.
However, the consultant shall be required to provide updates to existing data where required.
Existing background data that is available to the consultant includes:
Existing official plans and maps from all areas covered
Existing Zoning By-laws

Wiarton Urban Area Comprehensive Review - Request for Proposals 3
April 24, 2008
Bruce County Official Plan, and associated background report
Digital Parcel fabric, geo-referenced, including associated O.P. and zoning layers
Sewer and water capacity and infrastructure information
Bruce County Housing Study

6. Deliverables

The consultant shall provide to the Council twelve complete paper copies of the all documents in
a format suitable for adoption, along with associate schedules. The consultant shall also provide
one digital copy of all text documents in a MS word format. Digital map files shall be provided
that in ESRI shape file format ­ georeferencing on base maps must be maintained by consultant
in the development of any new thematic layers.

7. Pricing

All prices must be in Canadian Funds and include Goods and Services Tax and Provincial Sales
Tax separately, where applicable. The proposal shall include the following:
- A summary of the method of costing used.
- A summary of the major work components and the prices/estimates assigned to each
phase including an estimate of the number of hours that will be required for the issues
identified in section 4 broken down by level of staff assigned to each of the phases.
The scope of the engagement may only be broadened with express written authority
of the Town.
- The set fees should indicate all aspects of the Request for Proposal.
- Any report or item over and above the terms, conditions and specifications as outlined
shall be detailed complete with pricing per addition.

8. Study Timing

Response to this RFP should provide timing details for each phase in the project. Council has
estimated that the study should have a total duration of 6 months from start to finish.

9. Notification and Critical Dates

Manager who will be responsible for liaison, cost control and invoicing, maintaining the project
schedule and who will represent the consultant in matters pertaining to all aspects of reporting.

Up to date curricula vitae shall be provided for each team member in an Appendix.

In making a submission, the proponent agrees that the Town of South Bruce Peninsula has the
right, at its own discussion, to reject any non-compliant submissions and that the lowest, or any
submission will not necessarily be accepted.

Fundamental to this competition is the selection of a Proposal that, in the opinion of the Town, is
in the best interest of the Town. To this end, the proponent, in making a submission, agrees that
the Town reserves the right to select a proposal that may be non-compliant and may not be the
lowest price proposal.

COUNTY OF BRUCE
PLANNING & ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT

Growth Management Strategy (Sauble Beach) ­ Request for Proposals 1
April 24, 2008
1. Introduction/Issues

The Town of South Bruce Peninsula invites Requests for Proposals to undertake a growth
strategy for the core area of Sauble Beach. The growth strategy shall be in the form of an official
plan amendment to the existing local official plan.

The existing plan policies are found in the local official plan for The Town of South Bruce
Peninsula. The Towns plan, as well the Bruce County Official Plan, designate the Sauble Beach
area as a "Primary Settlement Area".

The Town of South Bruce Peninsula is currently undertaking an environmental assessment that is
investigating municipal sewer and water services for the core area of Sauble Beach. If Council
makes a commitment, through the EA process, to provide such services, a review of existing
official plan development polices and zoning regulations will have to be undertaken.

The growth strategy should consist of the following elements as a minimum:

1.1 The development of new servicing policies
1.2 The development of new land use designations an land use polices for the designations,
including provisions for mixed used neighborhoods
1.3 The development of new site plan control policies
1.4 The development of new zoning regulations to implement the new land use policies

2. Required Elements - Project Delivery and Public Participation

The Council places high value on creativity and innovation in project delivery and public
participation methods. There is a general feeling that standard methods of public participation
are becoming somewhat time worn (such as surveys, open houses, public meetings). This is not
to say that these methods should be ruled out, but we ask those responding to the RFP to use
creativity and imagination in engaging the public in this process.

The following minimum components shall be required:

i) The consultant shall be required to report to a project steering Committee that
shall be appointed by Council. The consultant shall meet with the steering
committee at least once in every proposed project phase;

ii) The consultant shall ensure that the public is engaged in a meaningful way in each
stage of the process;

iii) The consultant shall provide for at least one statutory public meeting prior to
Council adoption;

iv) The Consultant shall ensure that all statutory requirements of the Planning Act are
met.
