Subject: 2013 Insurance RFP
Report Summary: The purpose of this report is to address the upcoming
insurance renewal requirement for the period of April 1, 2013 to April 1,
2014, as the Municipality’s existing contract for insurance services with
Jardine Lloyd Thomson is expiring in the current year.
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.
THE CORPORATION OF THE MUNICIPALITY OF KINCARDINE
Council Agenda

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, 2013. 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
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 1998. 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
THE CORPORATION OF THE MUNICIPALITY OF KINCARDINE

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.

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
acceptance of BFL Canada for insurance services for the
period April 1, 2013 to April 1, 2014 for the premium
amount of $200,803 + PST.
2. 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.

TRE 2013-03
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,
2001. 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:

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 $2,182,000.
2. 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.

Recommended Allocation
Subject: 2013 Community & Enbridge Community Grants Allocation
THE CORPORATION OF THE MUNICIPALITY OF KINCARDINE
Council Agenda
Page 10 of 12
Wednesday March 13, 2013
Report Summary: The 2013 Budget approved by Council on February
21, 2013 through By-law No. 2013 – 017 included funds for Community &
Enbridge Community Grants. The recommended allocation of the grants
is set out in the attached listing.
Also, Enbridge has provided formal notice to the Municipality that, while
they will continue to support and invest in the community, their program, in
association with the Municipality, will come to a close with this 2013
distribution of funds as they intend to assume administration of their
Enbridge grant program.
Origin: 2013 Budget
Existing Policy: GG.3.5 Allocation of Community Grants
Analysis: The Municipality has offered grants to cultural, heritage, arts,
tourism, and community groups for several years. Policy GG.3.5 sets out
that the program is to provide funds to cultural, heritage, arts, and tourism
or community groups, which will have a positive impact on the quality of
life in the community of the Municipality of Kincardine; to provide a fair and
equitable process for the disbursement of community grants; that all
applications are to be evaluated in a comparative context based on the
purpose and objectives of the applicant and the funding available in the
grant program.
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. 2013 - 017,
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.
As noted above, Enbridge intends to assume administration of their grant
program commencing in 2014. The Municipality and Enbridge will work
together to ensure applicants are aware of the change in the process for
next year to ensure a smooth transition.
$25,000 of the Community Grants is provided to minor sports groups
based on a formula that includes facility costs and enrollment numbers of
the particular group.

Attached is a listing of the applications for both grant programs and the
recommended allocation for 2013. It is a difficult task as each group
represents a component of the community, yet, the amount requested
from the groups is substantially higher than the budgeted amount. In
developing the recommended allocation, factors taken into consideration
included (not in any particular order): purpose and scope of the grant
program as set out in GG.3.5; in-kind support from the Municipality for an
event/group; other financial support already provided to the group by the
Municipality; Enbridge support; minor sports allocation.
Community Plan and Integrated Community Sustainability Plan
(ICSP) Considerations: Preservation and promotion of the Municipality’s
heritage and cultural diversity.
ICSP: Continue to appreciate the role of the arts in economic
development, tourism and community; Preserve the Municipality of
Kincardine’s cultural heritage; Promote the Municipality of Kincardine’s
cultural diversity.
Financial Considerations: The 2013 budget includes $130,300 for the
Community and Enbridge Community Grant programs plus Enbridge
provided an additional $10,175 bringing the total available to $140,475.
Options:
1. Accept the allocation of Community & Enbridge
Community Grants as recommended.
2. Modify the recommended allocation of Community &
Enbridge Community Grants.
3. Take no action at this time.

Zoning By-law Amendment
Z-08-13.21
March 6, 2013
TO:
Chair and Members of the Municipality of Kincardine Planning Advisory
Committee
FROM:
Bruce Stickney, Planner for the Municipality of Kincardine
County of Bruce Planning & Economic Development Department
SUBJECT:
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-08-13.21
BE APPROVED, in accordance with the draft site-specific By-law attached.

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 3.1.1 and 3.1.2 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, 3.1.6 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-08-13.21
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 5.8.3 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-08-13.21
II Municipality of Kincardine Zoning By-law 2003-25
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.

HAZARD LAND AREA
5.8.1
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-08-13.21
undertake floodplain and other mapping to define more precisely hazard lands and other environmental
protection areas.
5.8.3
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.
5.8.5
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.
5.8.6
Great Lakes Shoreline Hazard Areas
5.8.6.1 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....
5.8.7
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 5.8.4 [Permitted Uses (Hazard Land Area)] of this Plan.

D7.3
Official Plan of the Municipality of Kincardine
NATURAL ENVIRONMENT AREAS
General Principles
Page 7
Chipman c/o Wilken
Z-08-13.21
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....
#77
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.
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.
D7.5
Policies
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:
Page 8
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;
Chipman c/o Wilken
Z-08-13.21
iii)
Vehicles and people have a way of safely entering and exiting at all times;
iv)
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.
