PROVINCIAL POLICY STATEMENT DÉCLARATION PROVINCIALE The 2014 Provincial Policy Statement (PPS) provides policy direction on matters of provincial interest related to land use planning and development. Under Section 3 of the Planning Act, where a municipality is exercising its authority affecting a planning matter, such decisions “shall be consistent with” all policy statements issued under the Act. La déclaration de principes provinciale de 2014 (DPP) fournit une orientation politique sur des questions d'intérêt provincial liées à l'aménagement et l'utilisation des terres. Conformément à l'article 3 de la Loi sur l’aménagement du territoire, lorsqu'une municipalité exerce son autorité touchant une question d’aménagement, de telles décisions "doivent être conformes avec" aux déclarations de principes émises en vertu de la Loi. Section 1.1.3 of the PPS directs planning authorities to focus growth within the settlement areas. Also, land use patterns shall be based on densities and a mix of land uses which efficiently use land and resources, are appropriate for, and efficiently use, the infrastructure and public service facilities which are planned or available. L’article 1.1.3 de la DPP dirige les autorités d’aménagement de concentrer la croissance dans les zones de peuplement. En outre, les modes d'utilisation des terres doivent être fondées sur les densités et une mixité d’usage qui utilise efficacement l'utilisation des terres et des ressources, sont appropriés pour, et utilise efficacement, les installations d'infrastructure et de service public qui sont prévus ou disponible. OFFICIAL PLAN PLAN OFFICIEL The subject land is within the ‘Urban Policy Area’ designation according the Land Use Designation Schedule, as contained in the UCPR Official Plan. Also, the special Les propriétés visées sont situées à l’intérieur du ‘secteur des politiques urbaines’ selon l’annexe ‘A’ du plan officiel des CUPR. De plus, les politiques 47 DE PRINCIPES policies for Ivaco Rolling Mills establishes a 300 metres Influence Area in which the creation of a new residential lot is prohibited except for existing uses. When a new lot is created a covenant has to be registered on title to include the provision of a warning notice, noting the site’s proximity to Ivaco Rolling Mills’ facilities and the potential noise, vibration, emissions, and/or other adverse effects which may be experienced on their property from time to time. spéciales pour Ivaco Rolling Mills établissent une zone d'influence de 300 mètres dans laquelle il est interdit de créer un nouveau lot résidentiel, sauf pour les usages existants. Quand un nouveau lot est créé une clause restrictive doit être enregistrée sur le titre de propriété pour inclure une disposition d’avis de mise en garde, en notant la proximité du site aux installations de Ivaco Rolling Mills et le potentiel de bruit, de vibrations, d’émissions, et/ou d'autres effets indésirables qui peuvent être expérimentés sur leur propriété de temps en temps. ZONING BY-LAW The lot to be severed (A) and the lot to be retained (B) are within a Residential Two (R2) Zone. The lot to be severed and the lot to be retained meet the lot area and the lot frontage of the zone requirements for a residential use. RÈGLEMENT DE ZONAGE Le lot à être détaché (A) et le lot à être retenu (B) sont dans une zone résidentielle deux (R2). Le lot à être détaché et le lot à être retenu rencontre la superficie et la façade minimale du lot de cette zone pour un usage résidentiel. BUILDING DEPARTMENT COMMENTS The Chief Building Officer indicates that this is a property where there is actually two houses on the same lot. The owner proposes to create two lots on which a house will be on each lot. SERVICE DE LA CONSTRUCTION L’inspecteur en chef du bâtiment indique qu’il s’agit d’une propriété où il y a en fait deux maisons sur le même lot. Le propriétaire propose de créer deux lots dont une maison sera sur chaque lot. The location of the new property line from the existing buildings on these two new lots do not contravene any regulations from the Ontario Building Code, therefore the Building Department do not have any objection with this proposed severance. L’emplacement de la nouvelle ligne de propriété par rapport aux bâtiments existants sur ces deux nouveaux lots ne contrevient pas aux dispositions du Code de bâtiment de l’Ontario, le service de la construction n’a aucune objection à cette demande d’autorisation. PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT COMMENTS The Public Works department recommends the Township takes the 3m widening for future infrastructure needs. SERVICE DES TRAVAUX PUBLICS Le service des Travaux publics recommande que le canton prenne l’élargissement de 3m pour les besoins futurs en infrastructure. If the 3m widening is refused Public Si l'élargissement de 3m est refusé, le Works recommends the Township service des Travaux publics takes 1.5m widening for future needs. recommande que le canton prenne un 48 élargissement de besoins futurs. 1.5m pour les PLANNING REVIEW EXAMEN URBANISTIQUE The proposed severance will consist in the creation of a new lot intended for residential purposes. At one point in time, each of the two houses were built on separate lots. Over time the two lots were merged by the registry office. Now the owner wishes to eventually sell the lots separately. In order to do so the approval of a consent application is required. With the new UCPR Official Plan policies, the proximity of Ivaco Rolling Mills limits residential lot creation. However, since the residential dwellings are existing there is no prohibition. La division proposée consiste en la création d'un nouveau lot destiné à des fins résidentielles. À une certaine époque, chacune des deux maisons ont été construites sur des lots séparés. Au fil du temps, les deux lots ont été fusionnés par le bureau d'enregistrement. Maintenant, le propriétaire souhaite avoir la possibilité de vendre ses lots séparément. Pour ce faire, l'approbation d'une demande d’autorisation est requise. Avec les nouvelles politiques du Plan officiel des CUPR, la proximité de Ivaco Rolling Mills limite la création de lots résidentiels. Toutefois, étant donné que les maisons sont existantes il n'y a aucune interdiction. The Land Surveyor indicated that the road widening of Lisgar Street would be of a width of approximately 2.3 m positioning the new property line at 25 cm (10 inches) of the existing house. Following a site visit the Director of Public Works indicated that the acquisition of the full road widening would be the preferred option but a 1.5 m strip of land would be acceptable. If a 1.5 m strip of land is transferred to the Township for road widening purposes the new property line would then be at 1.12 m of the existing house. The Planning Department has no objection to the proposed 1.5 m road widening. Furthermore, the UCPR will impose as a condition the maximum allowable road widening of Longueuil Street which is anticipated of being a widening of at least 5 m. L'arpenteur-géomètre a indiqué que l'élargissement de la rue Lisgar serait d'une largeur d'environ 2,3 m faisant en sorte que la nouvelle ligne de propriété serait à 25 cm (10 pouces) de la maison existante. Suite à une visite du site, le directeur des Travaux publics a indiqué que l'acquisition de l'élargissement complet de la rue serait l'option préférée, mais une bande de terre de 1,5 m serait acceptable. Si une bande de terre de 1,5 m est transféré au Canton à des fins d'élargissement de la rue, la nouvelle ligne de propriété serait alors à 1,12 m de la maison existante. Le Département d’urbanisme n'a pas d'objection à la proposition de 1,5 m d’élargissement. En outre, les CUPR imposeront comme condition l'élargissement admissible maximal de la rue Longueuil, qui est prévu d'être un élargissement d'au moins 5 m.

Conclusion: Conclusion: I am satisfied that the proposed lot creation is consistent with the 2014 Provincial Policy Statement and complies with the policies of the United Counties of Prescott and Russell Official Plan, I am of the opinion that the application is acceptable from a planning point of view, and should be granted, subject to the above-stated conditions.

Normand Sauvé Municipal By-law Enforcement Officer 113 SERVICES DE GARDE CHAMPLAIN DAYCARE SERVICES : REPORT TO COUNCIL : SEPTEMBER2016 1) Ministry of Education /Ministère Éducation: - Attended a meeting with the Ministry to go over all of the new changes that came in effect in August and those in effect next January. It was a great occasion to get answers to important questions regarding these changes. - Comtés-Unis/United Counties : - Reçu le dernier versement de la subvention annuelle et nous avons remis aux employés , le premier versement de la subvention salariale. - Rencontre du regroupement des services de garde de Prescott-Russell. 2) Atelier des Petits Champlain :. - La superviseure Mad. Normand est allé à un colloque à Toronto où les coûts d’admission et l’autobus étaient payés par les Comtés-Unis. 3) Garderie Champlain Day Nursery : - Le projet d’installation de salle de bain est en suspens jusqu’à l’approbation du Ministère. Centre Éducatif Champlain Learning Centre : - Attended a meeting in Kemptville at the CDSBEO headquarters regarding partnerships with community groups for day programs. As of now and for the next 2 years, there is no space available at St-Jude for these programs. This meeting will be held every year to let the population know when there is space available in the different schools of this school board. 4) Garderie Champlain-PJP St-Grégoire :. - Le service parascolaire va bon train et nous sommes choyés de pouvoir continuer à partager le gymnase, la bibliothèque et la salle d’ordinateurs. 5) Varia : - Following a request from Council regarding licensing and enrollment, you will find attached a description of how licensing is done, our present enrollment and how the ratios work. - On September 4th, I celebrated 26 years working at the daycare. We have grown since 1990 and I greatly appreciate Council’s support and trust all those years. I am always surprised when I meet new parents that come in to register their child and I recognize them from when they used to come at the daycare. Time flies. Respectfully submitted by : Marie Pageau Handfield RECE C Coordinator 114 LICENSING CHAMPLAIN DAYCARE SERVICES 1) Since 2014 there are new licenses requirements and the Ministry of Education asked us to update our licenses to reflect the maximum number of children that we can have in the rooms that we have. All this is based on square footage ex: for each child in attendance in a toddler or preschool program, you need 2.8 square meters per child of play space, so for 10 children you need 28 square meters of free space with no obstructions. For the school age program, you need 2.58 square meters per child. 2) Since then, when the Ministry did their license renewal, they asked us to verify the capacity of spaces we could offer in all our rooms and they produced a license according to these measurements so that if we want to expand our services we know our limits with the area we have. This was to save time and visits from the Ministry. 3) A perfect example is at St-Jean-Baptiste in L’Orignal where we have at our disposition 2 rooms at the daycare and 4 rooms at the school-age level which gives us a capacity greater than the enrollment that we have . When we ask for space, we base our calculations on the current year for the next year but in this case we know that we can expand our services up to the capacity on the permit before asking for a license modification. The same applies to St-Grégoire and St-Jude. For Garderie Champlain at 79 Derby, the daycare was built to accommodate 39 children regardless of the enrollment.

Many projects will be undertaken. Highlights: Director Brigitte Duguay-Langlais stated that Mélanie Joly, federal Heritage Minister, has been tasked with reviving the Action Plan for official languages. Ms. Duguay-Langlais will be pressing to the Minister that francophone immigration to outlying areas is not just about immigration and filling the job market per se, but that it can play a major role in revitalizing whole communities. Cases in point: immigrant families have been welcomed in Clarence-Rockland, Crysler; and a woman was able (just a few days ago) to settle in L’Orignal at the Centre Marguerite. A fivemember family in Clarence-Rockland is either attending the Moi, j’apprends literacy centre (parents) or school (the children). Hawkesbury welcomed a family of three whose members became permanent Canadian residents. Saint-Phar Désir, who heads the Economic and Social Council of Ottawa-Carleton, suggested that the University of Ottawa and other postsecondary institutions could poise themselves to study what are the needs of the job market in Prescott-Russell as well as Stormont-Dundas-Glengarry. What labour/specialized workers do farms need? What do communities need? How much influx of New Canadians do schools need to stay viable within the communities? Who do manufacturing plants need to keep running? What enrolment numbers do post-secondary institutions need from New Canadians to keep offering the various programs? National Job Fair (Montréal), mid-October: The United Counties of Prescott and Russell has rented some booth space and two employees will be there on behalf of the municipalities. Elected officials were encouraged to attend and to spend some time manning the booth in order to gain knowledge of francophone immigration issues. Speaking of the Job Fair: in 2015, participating organizations and schoolboards compiled a list of 240 New Canadians who were seeking employment or to relocate in one of the five counties (PR+SDG). For 2016, agencies will organize a visit of this area for fair attendees on November 24, 2016. In February 2016, over 50 New Canadians were bused to Cornwall to attend a job fair. A snowstorm prevented some businesses from being there, but a banking institution conducted on-the-spot interview and hired some of the visitors. Francophone schoolboards in Ottawa and elsewhere in Ontario saw just a portion of the Syrian refugees influx in the last year, despite gearing up for it. Some English-languages schoolboards devoted much more recruiting effort. The schoolboards have made changes to their strategy. What This Means for Champlain Township: As with other municipalities, this Municipality will become a home for future workers/ratepayers. Prospective employers must be matched with specialized workers who accumulated some experience abroad; our school boards must be ready to greet the children. Champlain Township can become a welcoming location for New Canadians who choose to live in our region. Respectfully submitted, Jacques Des Becquets September 29, 2016 116 Ontario East Municipal Conference 2016 Context: The Ontario East Economic Commission once again held its annual conference at the Ambassador Hotel in Kingston. Numerous topics were covered over these few days (September 13-16) and the Economic Coordinator attended on Thursday exclusively. Highlights of the various meetings attended: Energy East Pipeline (hosted by TransCanada Pipelines Ltd. and Eastern Mainland Project (natural gas)) Energy demand is likely to go up a further 32% by the year 2040, hence the importance of tranporting oil to markets. Canada imports 736,000 barrels a day (2015 numbers), so it needs a steady homegrown supply. Energy East claims to have a 10-minute response time if its sensors along the pipeline don’t send back a signal; should a spill occur, the company is “100% responsible” to pay for the cleanup and to reimburse local authorities. Federal/provincial/local revenue is estimated at $435 million once the oil flows in that system. Construction was slated for 2018 and 2019 but the disruption of the National Energy Board’s hearings in Montréal by protesters may curb this schedule as the Board has not yet met again to discuss issues and recommend a course of action. The Eastern Mainland Project (natural gas) claims it will create 6,400 jobs in Ontario when it converts one of two existing lines for the transportation of oil. Special guests (ministers Jeff Leale, Bill Mauro, M.P. Kim Rudd, M.P.P. Lou Rinaldi and Dr. Roseann O’Reilly Runte, from Carleton University) Ms. O’Reilly Runte announced the creation of a website portal for job opportunities throughout Eastern Ontario, in collaboration with other postsecondary institutions and muncipalities to form the Eastern Ontario Task Force. This website will highlight some of the 29,000 jobs available. http://newsroom.carleton.ca/2016/09/15/eastern-ontario-task-force/. In addition to reminding the audience about the Throne Speech’s announcement of a portion of the tax credit on Ontarians’ hydro bill, Jeff Leal (Minister of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs) announced upcoming intake periods for the former RED Program, now under the umbrella of the Job Prosperity Fund. Its community development and business streams will remain active. Deadlines to be announced either by late fall or next winter. Municipal Affairs Minister Bill Mauro announced upcoming reviews of the Municipal Act, of the Municipal Conflict of Interest Act and of the Ontario Municipal Board. 117 Addressing Economic Development Issues Ron Higgins (mayor, North Frontenac) explained the structure of the 14-member Rural Mayors’ Forum of Eastern Ontario and how members dealt with a number of issues in very small municipalities, from equipment procurement to attracting investors to O.P.P. billing. Their strategy was to create an action plan and to prioritize the next steps. Creating a Destination – Economic Benefits of Place-Based Design Cobourg’s Wendy Gibson and resource person Paul Moulin (Dillon Consulting) explained how the Town of Cobourg rejuvenated it beachfront and downtown sectors by creating a “sense of place”. The Town bought some old lakeside abandoned reservoirs from an oil company and set about transforming this land. Between 1989 and 1992, a 214-slip marina and a trailer park were created (possible expansion to come). A sizeable portion of the 18,000 resident population now skates in a public square near the beach. Cobourg adopted its branding “Ontario’s Feel-Good Town” and people – and some 900 businesses and services – have been using this slogan. The Power of Teeny Tiny Places (by OMAFRA’s Karen Fischer and Katie Nolan) Some Ontario hamlets lack big-ticket economic drivers or even municipal staff to take care of economic development, but it is possible to highlight natural or man-made assets in order to attract tourists. Examples: Highlands East has become a geocaching Mecca; Queensborough now sports a festival for kayak enthusiasts. Small municipalities must remain true to what they are (authentic) and ensure that they can support the claims they make in their branding. Since municipal staff can’t do it all, good communication – and actions – must exist between staff and volunteers which create and run events. To participate in “community revitalization” also equates to “economic development”. Whichever group participates in Community Economic Development (CED) must commit the time to see projects through and to see said projects continue in time. Be realistic with expectations of the outcome. Economic Development – Where Are We on Collaborating on Regional Priorities? The Eastern Ontario Leadership Council developed a strategy in 2014 for the 113 local governments it represents over an area of 149,000 km2 which centered on: 1. Workforce Development and Deployment; 2. Transportation Intelligent Systems; 3. Technological Innovation and Integration. A major issue which municipalities are accutely aware of, says Ontario East’s Dan Borowec, is that out of an estimated 26,500 employees, a full 35% will retire in the next five (5) years. There is a pressing need to plan for succession in this 118 workforce as well as anticipating what the jobs of the future will be, whether in the municipal, private or technological (and manufacturing) realms. In terms of investment and work opportunities, Princeton, N.J.-based Boyd Consultants conducted a comparison of 24 North American economic regions and Eastern Ontario emerged in first place (manufacturing costs, available labour, etc.). Even the energy costs were factured in and were found not to be “drastic”. Panelist David Fell (CEO, Eastern Ontario Regional Network, EORN) questioned if present models of local governments are right for effective collaboration. He stated that Eastern Ontario residents’ requirements for high-speed internet have jumped 50% each year for the last three years. In pushing for broadband across this vast region, “EORN has become a platform for development”. In the aftermath of 9-11, municipalities and all other levels of government have become keenly aware of proper public safety digital coverage (including cellphones). Furthermore, Mr. Phelp contends that there is “a huge business case” for developing intelligent driverless cars as efficient transportation modes. “You have to keep looking to the future,” he added, as well as convincing senior officials to look at this emerging technology. Consultant Kathy Wood explained that the Leadership Council was concentrating on the end goals. As outlined above, job requirements – if only in the municipal world – have become pressing. There is also a need for rapid response training for manufacturers and for transition programs for military employees (with bases in Petawawa, Ottawa and Kingston) coming back to civilian life. Also 3-D manufacturing processes are already being integrated in everyday production of goods; people will have to be trained for this. Alluding to the Intelligent Transportation Systems refered to earlier, Ms. Wood contends that Eastern Ontario will have to study how to best benefit from a proposed second VIA train passenger line and how to capitalize strategically for a proposed expansion of the Picton port. According to a Ryerson (Toronto) study, Eastern Ontario is a strong selfemployment region. Stakeholders must ponder how to benefit from this point. Ontario East’s Dan Borowec suggested that levels of government (federal or provincial) who fund economic development initiatives like to help specific clusters, agri-food, high tech and aerospace being three of them. Respectfully submitted, Jacques Des Becquets September 19, 2016 119 Ottawa River Festival 2017 Context: Ottawa River Festival regional coordinator Annie Grenier invited representatives from the participating riverfront municipalities to a conference call for a discussion surrounding proposed events rd during the Festival (tentatively scheduled for Thursday, June 29 to Monday, July 3 , 2017, inclusively). Of note are some deadlines to meet to submit funding applications to Canada 150 as well as Ontario 150 and possibly Celebrate Ontario. Highlights: Clarence-Rockland is continuing with a sizeable participation in the Festival (piggybacking with Canada Day celebrations). Some of the municipalities have worked their funding applications along the lines of “a sense of community” (community party, “local champions” and proposed play in Alfred-Plantagenet), “inclusion of seniors”, a celebration of Mr. Edwards and his sawing mill (Clarence-Rockland), the presence of the First Nations (“Capturing the Spirit of the Kitchissippi”, Clarence-Rockland) and of the Métis (Hawkesbury). This Economic Coordinator mentioned that the Recreation Committee has recently directed Champlain Township to ask for Canada 150 funding around winter activities st such as the carnival as opposed to focusing entirely on July 1 celebrations. The Town of Hawkesbury can no longer greet the Power Boating people at the marina (owners are no longer interested). Nor can it redirect the power boats towards the federal dock as Le Chenail normally has a full slate of activities during that time. The United Counties paid $11,000 in marketing/advertising for the Poker Run (power boats) in 2016. This will be the topic of a discussion in October. It is uncertain at this point if the power boaters will be invited back on the river. Mustang Poker Run organizers are hesitant to organize the 2017 event on the Saturday as it is Canada Day. It would be possible to run it on the Sunday. Although tests are still being conducted and reports from consultants are forthcoming, AlfredPlantagenet should take possession of the former École catholique élémentaire Saint-Joseph in Lefaivre in order to expand the premises to a marina and have some of the activities tie in with the Ottawa River Festival. Foire gourmande: The Réseau agro-alimentaire de l’Est de l’Ontario will be meeting in October and discussing any further participation within the Ottawa River Festival. Attendance was down this year at its Clarence-Rockland location. June-July is not conductive with harvested products. Hawkesbury intends to devote less resources to the actual River Festival and more resources in summer-long programming. The Bike Fest (motorcycles) took on a life of its own during the Labour Day weekend (Saturday) with 7,000 motocycles and upwards of 10,000 people (namely campers) and some of these people were a captive audience to the Sunday Auto Show. What is relevant to Champlain Township: st Ottawa River Festival: can we count on the L’Orignal volunteer Firemen for July 1 and on the Knights of Columbus (Benoît Bonneau) for its family beach picnic on the Sunday? Are there new/other events which should be listed in the promotions (radio, print and otherwise)? Funding: Did the Township also apply to Celebrate Ontario? The United Counties intends to at least ask for marketing money while letting individual municipalities ask for funding of their own.

Proposed Library “depot” in L’Orignal We have been discussing opening a small library depot in L’Orignal for people in that area to order books from our library to be picked up in L’Orignal. We may also offer a small selection of books that patrons can choose from. We haven’t worked out the details yet and will need to find a suitable drop-off/pick-up point in the L’Orignal area. 3 125 Head Librarian’s Report for September 2016 Stepping Stones I met with Jan and John Milnes this week to discuss a book they have written called “Stepping Stones”. The book is a novel based on the stories of young immigrants to Canada, including British Home Children, and follows the paths of two fictitious characters and one real-life youngster, John Buchan, from Scotland. It is estimated one in ten Ontarians is a descendant of a British Home Child. Arriving in Canada as a young teenager, John Buchan was first indentured to a farmer in Cassburn. He eventually branched out on his own, met and married a girl from Vankleek Hill - Betty Pollard - and they finally became the owners of two farms in Apple Hill, Glengarry, where they settled with their family. Jan and John will make a presentation on the subject of British Home Children on Wednesday, November 9 at 7 pm. We invite all those interested in listening to this page of history to attend this talk and, if the mood strikes, to buy their book. Staff Meetings We hold monthly staff meetings which help us prepare for upcoming events as well as any issues that arise as a result of our day-to-day activities.

The report is available through the UCDSB website at www.ucdsb.on.ca In keeping with UCDSB School Closure Policy 413, this Board approval to undertake a pupil accommodation review will set in motion a range of interconnected processes for consultation that will conclude with final decisions by the Board of Trustees on March 23, 2017. Final decisions will be based upon a final report from Board staff that will be presented to Trustees on February 15, 2017. I am writing to also inform you that, as a part of the pupil accommodation review process, the Board will be seeking a formal response from municipalities and community partners to the draft recommendations contained in the above noted Initial Staff Report. Your formal response can be forwarded, by Wednesday, February 1, 2017, to the attention of Superintendent Phil Dawes at [email protected]. Additionally, please be aware that we will be hosting a meeting for each of the Eastern and Western regions of our Board to review the information provided in the report that will be used to receive feedback throughout the accommodation review process. Please note that this meeting is simply intended to provide an overview of the contents of the report to assist your eventual development of a formal response. Accordingly, this meeting is being organized for the purposes of staff. Elected members of your organization that choose to attend are kindly asked to act as observers only.

The RASC is Canada's leading astronomy organization, with over 5000 amateurs, educators and professionals. The volunteer members of our 28 Centres, many in Ontario, offer outreach and awardwinning science education programs across Canada. We are very concerned about light pollution in our communities. As observers of the night sky, we are among the first to notice the impact of light on our communities. However, the effects of light pollution extend to health issues for all citizens, environmental issues for wildlife, and the negative impact on climate through higher than necessary energy use through overlighting. Many communities are considering the switch to LED lighting with a view to reducing the use of electricity. Depending on the design of the lighting, this can result in reduced light pollution or significantly worse light pollution. We have attached an information sheet on light pollution. We would respectfully request that this be treated as a 'communication to council' and included in the minutes of your council meetings. You are welcome to contact us for more information: http://rasc.ca/lightpollutionabatement An international organization on light pollution is here: http://darksky.org/ Best regards, Peter Hiscocks Chair of the Committee on Light Pollution Royal Astronomical Society of Canada, Toronto Chapter advicefinal.txt 4K 183 https://mail.google.com/mail/?ui=2&ik=43e3ba7566&view=pt&search=inbox&th=15734ba0e52baf62&siml=15734ba0e52baf62 1/1 Artificial lighting has been a great boon to our cities, towns and villages. Lighting can improve safety and make us feel more secure. The way we light our towns and villages is changing. Significant savings in energy costs can be achived by with LED (light emitting diode) technology, so many municipalities are converting from existing fixtures to LED. However, even though LED lighting may save money, it is no guarantee of good lighting design. Some versions of LED lighting have been excellent, some have been terrible. Bad lighting design is a hazard to human health, damages wildlife populations and destroys our view of the night sky. Fortunately, it is not difficult or expensive to do lighting that avoids these problems. Here are some of the points to consider when doing a conversion or retrofit. 'Glare' occurs when a light fixture shines directly into a person's eyes. LED lighting can be a serious source of glare, which is unpleasant and interferes with human ability to see properly. Look for a lighting BUG specification that has a glare zero rating (G0 in the specification). Ensure that the light emitting surface is not readily visible, but is directed to the ground or other surface. The 'colour temperature' is a measure of the colour of the light, measured in degrees Kelvin. Older fixtures tend to have a warmer glow, with a colour temperature around 2000 Kelvin. LED fixtures are much colder, with a colour temperature around 4000 Kelvin. The light is a cold white, and contains a large blue component. Blue light at night has been implicated in health problems and should be avoided. White LEDs often contain a large component of harmful blue light. In contrast to older lighting technologies, LED lighting is relatively simple to control. It can be directed to cause less light trespass on adjacent properties. And it can be made 'intelligent' which allows the lights to be adjusted which reduces light pollution and saves energy. For example, street light levels can be reduced during the late night hours. It is important that LED fixtures have the capability of electronic control when they are purchased: it can be prohibitively expensive to add later. The beauties of the night sky - stars, planets and the milky way - are hidden from view in the large cities of Ontario. City kids are growing up without seeing these natural wonders. In rural areas and the streets of smaller municipalies wonderful views of the the night sky are still possible. The night sky can be protected for this and future generations by 184 using moderate levels of lighting and 'fully shielded' fixtures with a bug rating 'uplight zero' (U0). In summary: - Avoid overlighting: use the minimim light level that allows good vision - Prevent glare: shield and aim lights so that they illuminate nearby surfaces and do not shine into the eyes of a human observer. - Preserve the night sky: aim lights downward, shield them to prevent stray light, use the minimum necessary light level. - Minimize light trespass: ensure that public and private lighting do not trespass on adjacent properties. - Choose a warmer colour temperature: avoid lighting with a pure white or strong blue component. The 'colour temperature' should be less than 3000K. - For new lighting installations use lighting that can be automatically adjusted to best suit requirements, reducing light when it's not needed.
