OVER THE BACK FENCE

Oh boy, it’s the first long weekend of summer and we’re all still hoping to gather with family and friends! According to the latest from Premier Ford, you can get together, outdoors, with a maximum of five people. And, this long weekend, you’ll be able to go golfing (with some restrictions, of course).

It’s been a trying year since we first got exposed to this deadly virus. Our healthcare professionals and other essential workers are tired, too. The word “thanks” isn’t enough for any of them; we are indebted for their hard work and dedication.

We have to think positive at this point. That’s the only way to move forward to the reopening of restaurants, gyms and our schools.

More and more major events in our communities are going virtual or being

cancelled again. It’s a new way of fundraising for many organizations and the people are coming together to help them. Over the first few months of this year, the Buckhorn Community Centre set a goal of $75,000 in their “Fuel the BCC” campaign and just recently, announced they had reached their goal! The generosity of people from near and far as well as businesses, has given a boost to this important venue in our community. I, for one, am looking forward to the day we can once again get on stage for dinner theatre ... I miss my friends, the joy of making people laugh. But we WILL be back! Stay tuned!

We know the seasonal residents are back or will be after the long weekend.

Our communities are in need of their economic boost and all we ask is that they play by the rules and keep us all safe. We’re all in this together, no matter where you come from. So please -- wear your mask, wash your hands and, most of all, be kind!

BUILD YOUR TRUST AROUND US.

Why place the comfort of your home and family in our hands? We know that building your trust doesn’t come from offering bargain basement prices, flashy promotions, or other fun and games. It comes from being there for you, friendly and professional, every day.

City Hall REFRESHING THE PLAN

At the Special meeting of City of Kawartha Lakes Council on May 11, Jennifer Stover, Director of Corporate Services shared a presentation with Council on the upcoming refresh of the existing 10 Year Financial Plan.

The updated Long Range Financial Plan, currently in draft form, will include a review of all the City’s tax supported budgets (Operating, Special Projects and Capital) with an objective of maintaining an annual 3 percent tax levy increase.

“The refreshed Plan will include lessons learned from the current plan, ensuring we have the flexibility to adjust to economic conditions each year, such as a pandemic. It will also take into greater account the impact that the Operating Budget has on long term finances by considering factors beyond our control, like weather patterns and WSIB costs. The end goal is to provide stability to residents so that the tax levy can remain affordable while we continue to look after assets and deliver the services defined by Council,” commented Stover.

Council will shape the direction of the new Plan by considering of a number of tools and approaches to ensure the Plan balances expectations and affordability including: • Reprioritizing the capital program or creating a dedicated capital tax levy • Creating a development charge policy with options to minimize debt • Reviewing the self-imposed debt limit and creating a debt policy supporting debt where the project “makes sense” • Exploring strategies to increase non-tax revenue to lessen operating pressures, review service delivery and review tax levy targets • Making provisions for key projects in the Special Project Budget, such as financing for the Wellness Centre in Coboconk

Staff are well underway with the Long Range Financial Plan to ensure that it can inform the 2022

budget deliberations. A draft Plan will come to Council by the end of September.

The current 10 Year Financial Plan is available for download on the municipal website.

The information presented will be considered by Council at the May 18 Regular Council meeting before adoption.

VIRTUAL PUBLIC MEETING

The municipality of Kawartha Lakes, in partnership with the project’s consultant, Dillon Consulting, will be hosting an additional virtual public meeting for the Fenelon Falls Second Crossing project on May 29, 2021. The purpose of this meeting is to inform seasonal and full time residents, within the areas of potential impact, of the study findings and recommendations.

Areas of potential impact include the Town of Fenelon Falls, the community of Baddow along Concession Road 3 and along the Burnt River near Concession Road 3.

The meeting will run from 10am to 11:30am and is available through a meeting link to be posted at www.kawarthalakes.ca/ffsecondcrossing by May 25.

Please check there for a meeting link.

If you’d like to participate please log into the Zoom Meeting by 9:55 am on the 29th. During the meeting there will be opportunities to ask questions.

If you have a question, please send it to mwillemse@ dillon.ca in advance of the meeting, so the project team can prepare.

The meeting will also be livestreamed on the City of Kawartha Lakes YouTube channel.

The purpose of the Fenelon Falls Second Crossing is to address the traffic concerns through Downtown Fenelon Falls and surrounding the existing bridge located on Colborne Street in Fenelon Falls. Roughly 15,000 vehicles per day travel through Fenelon Falls in the summer months and often, long vehicle delays occur during peak traffic hours along the bridge and at the intersection of Helen Street and Lindsay Street.

The options being considered to address traffic through Fenelon Falls include: in-town intersection design improvements, a second bridge crossing located in-town to the east of the existing bridge, a new by-pass around Fenelon Falls that would require a new bridge over the Burnt River at Concession Road 3, or the expansion of the existing Colborne Street bridge crossing in-town.

The municipality has hosted two previous public meetings as well as a presentation of the project to Council. Past meeting recordings and presentation materials can be found on the Jump In project page.

A MEAL ON US

Submitted by Susan Peirce

Members of Soroptimist International of Kawartha Lakes know the struggles that different businesses and individuals are facing today. Help is on the way!

Benefitting from this program are three groups of people: you – as a donor, will receive a charitable receipt when you support “a meal on us”, where “us” is the community.

You name a restaurant within the City of Kawartha Lakes that you want to support, and the Soroptimists will purchase gift cards/certificate(s), using 100% of your donation. Those gift cards/certificates will then be distributed to women and their families through your local food bank. Restaurants benefit from needed cash flow, and families who are struggling will have the opportunity to enjoy a meal without worrying about the cost of food, an opportunity that they would not otherwise have.

To stand behind their mission of helping women and girls, the Soroptimist Club will match donations to a total of $2,000 – making your money go twice as far – helping more restaurants and serving more women.

Donations can be made by e-transferring to treasurer@sikawarthalakes.org, or mailing a cheque to sikl, p.o. Box 365, lindsay on K9V 4S3. Be sure to include your name and address to receive your charitable receipt, and the name of the restaurant. A $20 minimum donation required for receipt.

You can check the progress of the community’s donations by going to their website www. sikawarthalakes.org, or their facebook page soroptimistinternational.KawarthaLakes.

Soroptimist is a global volunteer organization working to improve the lives of women and girls through programs leading to social and economic empowerment. 2021 marks the 100th anniversary of soroptimist globally, and ten years for the Kawartha Lakes club - making a difference in our community!

PUT OUT YOUR LEAF AND YARD WASTE

Spring leaf and yard curbside collection this year will take place in June. Residents are asked to please place leaf and yard material in dry paper bags. You can keep your bags dry by placing them in a storage shed, or under a tarp until your day of collection. Items placed in plastic bags will not be collected. Please do not rake or blow leaves into ditches. This creates blockage and can cause drainage issues.

Leaf and yard waste is to be placed at the curb by 7am on your assigned collection date (see below).

Additional yard waste can be bundled with string or twine, at a size less than three feet in length and 40 pounds in weight. Grass clippings, sod, root balls, stumps and branches over three inches in diameter will not be accepted for curbside collection.

Spring 2021 collection schedule • For residents who have waste and recycling collection on Mondays and Wednesdays, curbside collection day is Friday, June 4 • For residents who have waste and recycling

collection on Tuesdays and Thursdays, curbside collection day is Friday, June 11

Council has approved a pilot program for the inclusion of both high density multi-residential homes (three or more units), and trailer parks, until the end of 2022.

In 2022, the program will go to Council for review to confirm if it will continue for these locations in future years. If you’re unsure if you’re eligible for this collection or if you require additional information, please visit the curbside collection page at www. kawarthalakes.ca or contact Waste and Recycling at 705-324-9411 extension 1135.

OPENING OF TSW POSTPONED

CRAFT SHOW FROM HOME

The 39th Annual Buckhorn Spring Craft Show, a fundraising event for the Buckhorn Community Centre is going virtual this weekend.

It’s been a rough year for small, craft-based businesses, so the BCC is not charging for them to participate. This is a great way for you to help them!

Over the weekend, there will be prize giveaways and children’s activities online, and, of course, your chance to view and purchase the work of talented local artisans.

Follow the links online at www. buckhorncommunitycentre.com from May 21 to 24.

NO FIREWORKS IN TRENT LAKES

From Municipality of Trent Lakes Facebook

This Victoria Day long weekend we’d like to remind residents and visitors that the setting off of fireworks is not permitted at anytime this weekend. This is in accordance with By-law B2019-103 regardless of whether they are being sold at local stores or not.

You can read a copy of the by-law at the following link: https://www.trentlakes.ca/.../Doc.../B2019-103Fireworks.pdf

There are prescribed periods in a calendar year that the setting off of fireworks is permitted but NOT

Trees, Cedars, Evergreens, Perennials, Shrubs, Garden Center Complimentary Design Consultation

the Victoria Day long holiday weekend. Please check the by-law for the permitted times of the year. Contact our office in advance of the long weekend with any concerns or questions you may have. Phone 705-7383800, or 1-800-374-4009 or email info@trentlakes.ca • Fireworks are not permitted at any of our public beaches.

• If you own a cottage/home that you are renting, make sure your tenants know in advance that there are no fireworks allowed this long weekend.

• Do not engage in fireworks outside of the prescribed periods of By-law B2019-103. By only permitting fireworks during prescribed periods it permits our community to prepare for any individual requirements or special needs.

Fireworks can trigger post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) episodes and emotional flashbacks for our military service veterans, people who experienced war zones and also children/adults with autism or other sensory stimulation disorders.

Fireworks also frighten pets that might resort to unpredictable “flight” escapes, risking becoming lost or hurt.

Remember to adhere to all social distancing and health measures to ensure that you and your loved ones enjoy a safe and happy Victoria Day weekend.

If you decide to opt for s’mores around a bonfire in place of the fireworks – be sure to obtain a Burn Permit. They are available at all waste transfer stations or directly online from the website at https://www. trentlakes.ca/en/live/burn-permits.aspx

MARINAS COVERED UNDER STAY-AT-HOME ORDER

May 21, 2021 - The Kawartha Promoter

The final draft of the 10-year Paramedic Service Master Plan has been presented to Council. The plan, which will be implemented over the course of 2022 to 2031, was developed jointly with staff from Kawartha Lakes Paramedic Service and Concepts Consulting and looks to address resourcing needs and gaps for our growing and aging community.

Kawartha Lakes, along with all municipalities across Ontario, is currently facing what is known as the “Aging Tsunami”, a term used to describe the fast rate at which populations are experiencing aging demographics. Senior age cohorts bring different levels

of demand for emergency services, as do younger individuals and population growth. Using provincial population models, the consultants presented predictions to demand increases over the next decade, looking at a possible 54% growth in call volumes and a 57% increase in hours of resources required.

One of the main goals of the Paramedic Master Plan is to implement actions now to help flatten the demand curve quickly approaching. This includes: • Scaling up the use of paramedicine • Creating a 9-1-1 awareness campaign to help inform the public about appropriate use of emergency services • Creating alternative pathways that will allow paramedics to consider different approaches that may not require transfers directly to the hospital • Utilizing dispatch enhancements such as the upcoming Advanced Medical Priority Dispatch System

“The Master Plan is designed to use real-time analytics to best prepare the municipality and our Paramedic Service to meet future needs and challenges,” stated Chief Randy Mellow, Kawartha Lakes Paramedic Service. “The plan incorporates growth, demographic composition, health status and public expectations around service delivery for our residents. It explores mitigation strategies as an approach to manage patient demand and will continue to evolve as different measures, such as provincially legislated new models of care, become available.”

Another objective of the Paramedic Master Plan is to ensure that as demand increases, service delivery including response time does not deteriorate.

A proposition to consolidate facilities was brought forward, looking at service implications if a new location was selected. For example, the consultants discussed that moving the Lindsay response station from St. David Street to Angeline Street North would decrease the average response time from just under four minutes to two minutes and 27 seconds.

Buckhorn & Area 2021

The Master Plan also looked at staffing needs, highlighting as front-line demand grows, the need for resources to support that demand will also increase.

This includes looking at enhancing administrative and logistics support.

Council received the presentation and report, recommending the municipality uses the findings of the Master Plan to inform future strategic planning and department objectives as well as budgeting forecasts.

BUY LOCAL IN SAFETY

The farmers’ markets are returning for the 2021 season, with the enhancement of strict safety protocols from the Haliburton, Kawartha, Pine Ridge District Health Unit.

Farmers are ready with their products to be sold at the five markets across Kawartha Lakes. Working from a now familiar COVID-safe operating plan, organizers are ready to implement even more stringent protocols during the provincial Stay At Home Order.

Capacity limits have been set to 25 percent during the extended Stay At Home period, meaning the request of one shopper per household is even more important for customers to observe. Volunteers will once again be reminding customers to maintain distancing, use hand sanitizer and do self-assessments prior to entering the markets.

Vendors will also be continuing increased sanitization between customers and will assist customers in picking items for purchase, as there is a no-touch procedure to reduce contact with products.

Opening dates for Kawartha Lakes markets include: • Lindsay Thursday Farmers’ Market on Thursday, May 20 from 10am to 3pm at Wilson Fields on St. Joseph Street, Lindsay • Fenelon Falls Farmers’ Market on Friday, May 21 from 9am to 2pm at 45 Bond Street, Fenelon Falls • Lindsay Farmers’ Market on Saturday, May 22 from 7am to 1pm on Victoria Avenue between Kent Street West and Peel Street, Lindsay

While various forms of markets will be opening, the focus is on access to local food and farm products in a safe manner. Shoppers are reminded not to gather or loiter at the market. After making essential purchases, shoppers should return home so others may attend and to prevent large gatherings from being formed.

The benefit of shopping at Farmers’ Markets is not just in the freshness of the products, but also in the opportunity to support local growers and bakeries who bring their products straight from their fields and kitchens.

ONLINE AUCTION IN SUPPORT OF THE ARTS

Kawartha Art Gallery, in partnership with Curated, is presenting an online fundraising auction of a selection of paintings, collages, prints and drawings by the Canadian abstract painter, York Wilson (1907 to 1984). The York Wilson Auction runs until Thursday June 3, 2021.

The crop plan for this season includes beets, carrots, kale, garlic, cherry tomatoes, squash, turnips and an assortment of microgreens and sprouts.

During the 2020 season, Brandeston Farms donated almost 2,500 pounds to local organizations, including Kawartha Lakes Food Source.

You can find out more about their share programs by visiting their website at www.brandestonfarm.ca.

YOU CAN’T SPELL ‘COMMUNITY’ WITHOUT ‘UNITY’!

By Jaxon Burk

We have seen our communities come together in times of celebration and innovation. This past year, we have also seen our communities come together when faced with adversity. Many things have changed over the course of a year, but one thing has remained the same – pride in community.

Most recently, the new Wellness Centre has been at the centre of such community pride. When the project first began, more than 150 people attended the community meetings for the Wellness Centre and over 450 people told us what gaps in service they would like to see filled in. The message was heard loud and clear – a new Wellness Centre to serve Kawartha Lakes is not only needed, but also welcomed and supported. As the project has progressed, the excitement for the Wellness Centre has only increased. How our communities have begun to come together to make the new Wellness Centre a reality has been inspirational.

On May 1, 2021, the Jump in the Lake Challenge made a big splash in the community! The Challenge saw 600 donations sponsoring 39 people to endure the cold waters of 8 different lakes across the Kawarthas and Haliburton. The results totalLed in a whopping $53,337.69 towards the new Wellness Centre – more than double the goal.

Lake Associations, local businesses, and residents are also showing their support. Pictured here are the Coboconk & District Lions Club who are showing their enthusiasm for the Wellness Centre with their pledge of $10,000 for the Wellness Centre over the next few years. Thank you, Coby Lions!

This has been an outstanding launch of our $1

million community fundraising project for the new Wellness Centre – and we are only just beginning! The community is proving once again that there is nothing we can’t accomplish when we all join together.

We welcome all to join us in the efforts to make the vision of the new Wellness Centre a reality!

To stay updated on the progress of this project and information about how to get involved, visit www.WellnessCentreNorth.ca or email jwilson@ coboconknorland.ca.

We would love to hear from you!

PROVINCE GIVES GREEN LIGHT TO LONG WEEKEND GOLF

Premier Doug Ford, along with provincial health experts, has announced plans for reopening the province, gradually, to help people get back to some semblance of normalcy amid the continuing pandemic.

It will be a gradual, three-step approach, said Ford.

Some outdoor recreational amenities, including golf courses and tennis courts, will be allowed to reopen on May 22, abiding by local health unit rules.

As well, outdoor gatherings for the long weekend will be allowed for up to five people.

Ford also said, “Today, we’re seeing increasingly positive trends. Working with public health officials, we’ve created a plan to safely reopen in the coming weeks.”

• Step One: An initial focus on resuming outdoor activities with smaller crowds where the risk of transmission is lower, and permitting retail with restrictions. This includes allowing outdoor gatherings of up to 10 people, outdoor dining with up to four people per table and non-essential retail at 15 per cent capacity.

• Step Two: Further expanding outdoor activities and resuming limited indoor services with small numbers of people where face coverings are worn. This includes outdoor gatherings of up to 25 people, outdoor sports and leagues, personal care services where face coverings can be worn and with capacity limits, as well as indoor religious services, rites or ceremony gatherings at 15 per cent capacity.

• Step Three: Expanding access to indoor settings, with restrictions, including where there are larger numbers of people and where face coverings can’t always be worn. This includes indoor sports and recreational fitness; indoor dining, museums, art galleries and libraries, and casinos and bingo halls, with capacity limits.

Deputy Premier and Minister of Health Christine Elliott said that before each phase is implemented, the decision to proceed will be with the utmost caution.

She said each step will be approximately three weeks, with Phase One to start the week of June 14.

Several questions still remain about the reopening of schools. Premier Ford said, “Reopening the schools could increase cases by 11 percent. We are working closely with the science experts to ensure it is done safely.”

HISTORY IN NEED OF REPAIR

Submitted by Bonnie Jane Harris

Just over a hundred years ago, lumber baron Mossom Boyd’s son, W.T.C. Boyd was a significant figure in Bobcaygeon. With many achievements under his belt, none was more enduring than the dry stone wall built around Edgewood, his family estate.

That unique construction, using not a single trowel of mortar, ensured it’s still around today.

You’ll see the 400-foot stretch of it on the Case Manor side of Canal Street near the corner of Hwy. 36. You’ll also see the wall is now in need of serious repair. The Environmental Action Bobcaygeon (EAB) volunteers are determined to rescue it. The Edgewood dry stack wall was completed in 1890 through 1891 and will undergo a full restoration for its 130th milestone birthday this year.

Cultural Significance

The Edgewood wall at 28 Boyd Street is a rare and excellent example of nineteenth-century dry stack stone wall construction. Early Ontario settlers built them in many areas of the province, but this is one of only two remaining in Kawartha Lakes. The Boyd family paid farmers $1 for each wagon load of stones brought to the site.

A dry stone wall requires a high degree of technical achievement through its construction method, and it has been recognized by UNESCO (United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organizations) for its picturesque and cultural significance within

agricultural and rural landscapes and for its technical merit.

Building one is a rare skill these days and the cost of expertise and labour is significant.

Volunteers Are Prepared

With more than 15 years of local volunteer involvement -- everything from distributing energy efficient light bulbs and building Wilderness Park to involvement in the Bobcaygeon Farmers’ Market, the historical walking tour, community gardens, safe pathways, and an Active Transportation Plan for the Village of Bobcaygeon -- EAB has the expertise and community experience needed to save the wall. The group has already had the Edgewood wall protected through a heritage designation and has engaged worldrenowned waller, John Shaw Rimmington, to work on the project and will also train a few local volunteers.

With the restoration work permit in hand, EAB plans to begin the restoration of this Bobcaygeon gateway location landmark this summer.

How You Can Help

With a total estimated cost of $70,000, the volunteers are off to a good start with grants from both the Bobcaygeon C.H.E.S.T. and Million Dollar Makeover funds, a commitment from Sienna Senior

Living /Case Manor, and a private donation. They recently received the good news that the Bobcaygeon Horticultural Society is committing $10,000 to the project, with $5,000 now to kick off the project and another $5,000 further on in the restoration process.

A fun local fundraiser for the remainder will highlight the unique structure of the dry stone wall.

Let us work some magic for you.

Campaign lead Ann Adare says, “You can donate to the project at four levels, each representative of one of the unique aspects of dry stone wall construction.

Foundation ($25 to $499 donation) is the first, then Through Stone ($500 to $999), then Heart Stone ($1,000 to $4,999), and Top Stone ($5,000 plus). All donors will be recognized for their contributions over $25, no matter what level. Both our community residents and our thousands of visitors will have the opportunity to learn of our Boyd heritage and the unique craftsmanship of dry stack walling via plaques that will be placed at the site.”

“With our community’s help, we can ensure our important and beautiful structures live on and preserve our history for future generations,” says Environmental Action Bobcaygeon co-president Richard Fedy.

“It’s to everyone’s advantage to restore and protect our local heritage,” agrees project co-chair Stephen Slack. EAB Co-president John Bush points out that, “This project is also a perfect fit with our work on the Active Transportation plan.”

EAB, in partnership with the Community Foundation of Kawartha Lakes, is pleased to announce the Edgewood Stone Wall Fund is now in place to facilitate community donations. The Foundation is uniquely positioned to provide financial management and team expertise to assist the Edgewood wall team with fundraising efforts.

BEACH PARK UPDATE

The Bobcaygeon Beach Park Redevelopment project is currently experiencing a pause as a result of COVID-19. In light of the most recent Stay-at-Home order, and with the health and safety of construction staff and the community in mind, a decision was made to interrupt the work occurring onsite. Staff continue to complete administrative tasks associated with the project to ensure that the redevelopment will be completed on time. The re-opening date of Bobcaygeon Beach Park is set for Spring 2022 and remains on schedule at this time.

Completed project activities to date include, completion of all site servicing, including sanitary, water and electrical conduit being 50% complete. Boat dock anchors, bridge abutments and the pedestrian bridge are in place.

The newly reconstructed maintenance building is well underway with the slab excavation, concrete floating slab, underfloor piping, conduit and block walls completed. The main washroom building has had excavation for building footings along with having the concrete footings and concrete walls poured.

Block walls and underfloor piping and conduit have also been completed.

COMMUNITY PARTNERS TALK ENVIRONMENT

On Monday May 17, the Kawartha Lakes Environmental Advisory Committee (KLEAC) held its first virtual Environmental Roundtable Summit.

A diverse group of environmental partners and stakeholders, consisting of all KLEAC Members and a dozen guests from across the community, identified issues and collaborated on ideas to help the environment.

“A big thank you to everyone that joined and contributed to the Roundtable,” commented Tracy Richardson, Councillor and KLEAC Member, and Pat Warren, Chair of KLEAC. “The discussion was a major step towards recognizing the environmental issues we face and finding future opportunities to address those issues collectively. We look forward to collaborating further and working together to improve Kawartha Lakes’ environment.”

A variety of issues and ideas were shared during the meeting, with 14 deputations in all. A few key focus areas included: 12

May 21, 2021 - The Kawartha Promoter

Enhancing green spaces and shorelines

Members identified supporting green spaces and water systems across Kawartha Lakes as one of the key objectives going forward. Canopy Project Kawartha Lakes, presented their work and success to date in increasing our tree canopies, particularly in urban areas. Organizations like Kawartha Conservation, Couchiching Conservancy and Kawartha Land Trust and the Lake Management Planning Committee continue to protect, manage and regulate natural resource features through planning and monitoring.

More local groups like Environmental Action Bobcaygeon and Fenelon Forward have driven a variety of environmental initiatives in and around their respective towns and expressed the need for balancing Kawartha Lakes growth and development with the environment.

Maintaining Kawartha Lakes’ trails

A number of groups and members highlighted the value of Kawartha Lakes’ unique trail systems and the importance of maintaining and expanding our green corridors. Work is being done by the Kawartha TransCanada Trail and Kawartha Lakes Green Trails Alliance to promote compatible and sustainable trail systems within the community and abroad for both residents and visitors. Similarly, the Walk Lindsay Advocacy Group and Kawartha Cycling Club acknowledge the value in Kawartha Lakes’ trails and the role they play in promoting active and healthy ways of getting around. More work is being done to help maintain the trails in an effort to promote healthy lifestyles and to keep the towns throughout Kawartha Lakes connected to support the economy.

Education and awareness

Everyone recognized the need to further drive awareness and education around the environment to promote more sustainable living within the community. The Gamiing Nature Centre and Kawartha Field Naturalists have been fostering public interest and promoting environmental protection through educational programming. The Kawartha Lakes Library is also endeavouring to drive awareness by using green spaces to offer story walks and partnering with other groups in educational programs.

For more details on the work that’s being done and to view the full discussion, please see the recording on Kawartha Lakes YouTube.

FIREWORKS IN CKL

This week, Council approved new measures around consumer fireworks use in Kawartha Lakes. The changes to the By-law will help to regulate use and promote safety awareness around when and where it is appropriate to set fireworks off. Consumer fireworks are Class 7.2.1 fireworks for recreational use that do not require a special license to purchase.

“Fireworks are often used to help celebrate special days or events and although they are entertaining, they are dangerous and require safety precautions when in use,” commented Fire Chief Mark Pankhurst. “With the new restrictions, we hope to reduce the amount of calls for complaints of disturbances to people and animals and ensure that safe practices are always top

of mind.”

Under By-Law 2007-236, permits have always been required for all types of display fireworks (professional fireworks such as pyrotechnic) and for consumer fireworks being discharged in public spaces, such as a park. The amendments to the By-law require residents obtain a permit should they wish to discharge consumer fireworks on their own property for an event outside of the designated days and times outlined below.

The updated By-law limits the use of consumer fireworks without a permit to the following holidays:

• Victoria Day

• Canada Day

• Family Day

• Indigenous Peoples Day

• Labour Day

• New Years Eve

Understanding that celebrations may take place on different days, the By-law also authorizes consumer fireworks without a permit the day immediately before and the day immediately following the listed holidays.

In addition, fireworks on these days will only be allowed to be set off between dusk and 11pm. Should residents wish to use fireworks outside of authorized days, a consumer fireworks permit for a special event must be obtained.

To obtain a permit for consumer fireworks for a special event or celebration, residents will be required to fill out an online application form for review and approval by the municipality and pay the required fee. There is currently an application on the website for a permit to hold a public display of display or consumer fireworks that will be updated shortly to include the new regulations. Fire Services will require an application to be submitted 14 days in advance for a consumer fireworks special event application.

An online map will also be made available shortly where residents can view the locations of approved permits for displays of fireworks in their area. This is extremely helpful for those who have small children or animals, such as outdoor livestock, to be able to prepare themselves in advance for the noise and other circumstances.

SALSA WITH A PURPOSE

The Kawartha Lakes Food Source (KLFS) is launching their own brand of salsa with a social purpose.

Unlike massive multi-national corporations who pocket profits from product sales, the proceeds from KLFS Salsa are invested into operating expenses such as rent, allowing them to continue to deliver food access and food literacy programs within the City of Kawartha Lakes.

In early 2020, KLFS put an online poll out to the community asking them what type of KLFS food product they would be most interested in purchasing.

Salsa won by a landslide, with over 70% of respondents choosing it over the alternative options.

Over the course of the past year, KLFS has been quietly working away at product ideation, recipe development, marketing assessments, and regulatory 14

May 21, 2021 - The Kawartha Promoter

compliance. The final recipe was developed in collaboration with George Brown College’s Food Innovation and Research Studio, and the salsa was produced by KLFS staff and volunteers alongside the knowledgeable employees of the Ontario Agri-Food Venture Centre.

To date, they have produced 3,000 jars of salsa which will be on local store shelves on May 20 of this year. Each jar of salsa will be priced at approximately $4.99. Retail locations will include Reid’s Valu-Mart, Farmer’s Butcher Shop, Mariposa Woolen Mill, Fresh FueLL and Burns Bulk Food. Additionally, KLFS will be partnering with the Kawartha Box to have the product included in an upcoming bundle. Salsa will also be available for sale at assorted events such as farmers markets, so keep your eye on KLFS’ social media for these pop-up purchasing opportunities.

“Our hope is that this social enterprise will help KLFS be financially resilient in the midst of any future economic uncertainty,” says Heather Kirby, Executive Director at the Kawartha Lakes Food Source. “The project will be an ongoing, self-sustaining source of revenue that compliments our regular fundraising efforts. Diversifying our streams of income is a priority for our team as a way of mitigating risk and ensuring we can always be relied on by our member agencies and our community during times of need.”

“We would like to express our sincere thanks to Community Foundations of Canada for providing us the initial grant through their Investment Readiness Program to fund this project,” adds Kirby.

Horoscopes

May 21 to June 4

By Melodie McCullough

Aquarius (Jan. 21 to Feb. 19) Practise the art of listening well, Aquarius – with “the ear of your heart”. There are so many things we miss when we don’t do this. You will be amazed at what you hear!

Pisces (Feb. 20 to March 20) “Love keeps the cold out better than a cloak.”: Henry Wadsworth Longfellow.

Pisces – accept love into your heart and home! Don’t fear it. If without love at the moment, be open to finding someone new. If already with love, embrace those people chance you can. And remember, love isn’t always of the “romantic” kind. It can be found anywhere!

Aries (March 21 to April 20) Aries, do you have a ‘Gratitude Jar’? If not, why not? It’s a healthy activity to think – every day – of things for which we are grateful.

Write them out and put them in a jar, so you can go back and delight them any time you want.

Taurus (April 21 to May 21) “What others think of you is none of YOUR business.”: Alexandra Eidens. It can be hurtful, and who needs that, Taurus? Focus instead on being true to yourself and stop worrying what foolish fools think!

Gemini (May 22 to June 22) Pause before judging, Gemini, and be wary of making assumptions – about people, about happenings, about everything. The truth is often hidden!

Cancer (June 23 to July 23) In these unusual times, Cancer, it is wise to be selective regarding how you

spend your time and energy, and especially with whom your share your “COVID” bubble. Take care!

Leo (July 24 to Aug. 23) Patience is often an unpleasant, but very necessary, trait to have, dear Leo. Practice it on small things, and then work up to larger things. Try it!

Virgo (Aug. 24 to Sept. 23) Virgo, you have the ability to make great connections with all different kinds of people and to gain their trust. Use this positive characteristic judiciously!

Libra (Sept. 24 to Oct. 23) We can’t go far to visit and enjoy the ‘normal’ things now, Libra. But we still have our imaginations – and there is nothing wrong with using them to amuse ourselves. Generations, caught up in unsavoury situations, have done so to make it through the days.

Scorpio (Oct. 24 to Nov. 22) In case you’re wondering during this period, Scorpio, you are more than capable of making decisions for yourself and choosing your own intentions. Of course, you are also responsible for the outcomes of those choices!

Sagittarius (Nov. 23 to Dec. 21) Sagittarius, shun gossip! It can bring hurt and misunderstandings to vulnerable people – and it’s highly likely to be untrue.

So do yourself and others a favour – keep your mouth closed.

Capricorn (Dec. 22 to Jan. 20) Don’t over-extend yourself, Capricorn, during this phase. Take it easy! In both mental and physical pursuits, know what triggers stress you and avoid them.
