3 Council Minutes January 11, 2017 Ms. Goodwin stated that the Plan has been reviewed and accepted by the Lake Simcoe Conservation Authority (LSRCA) and staff are now requesting Council`s approval. With the adoption of the Lake Simcoe Protection Plan (LSPP) in 2009, municipalities within the LSRCA are required to prepare and implement a comprehensive stormwater management master plan. Ms. Goodwin also noted that as development increases surrounding Lake Simcoe, stormwater ponds need to be retrofitted and/or cleaned out, and properly maintained to increase the quantity of water they can handle and improve the water quality. Mr. Nyenhuis stated that excessive phosphorous levels has been the most significant cause of poor water quality in Lake Simcoe. It has led to the excessive growth of plants and algae in the lake, which contributes to decreased dissolved oxygen levels and the degradation of the critical habitat of coldwater species. The goal of the Stormwater Management Plan is to recommend improvements that will result in opportunities to minimize phosphorus, erosion, and changes in the water balance throughout the watershed. As part of the Management Plan, study areas throughout the municipality were reviewed, and specific recommended improvements were developed and have been incorporated into a 10-year capital implementation plan. These include stormwater pond cleanouts and retrofits. Mr. Nyuhuis noted that although the Stormwater Management Plan is requesting increased funding in 2019 to 2026, staff will look at the most effective ways to implement the recommendations while reducing costs. Council provided comments and questions of clarification which were addressed by staff and the consultant. CR Moved By: Seconded By: Councillor B. Loughead Councillor R.
