SUMMARY:Public Information Centre: York Street Project
DESCRIPTION:The County of Prince Edward will share more information about the York Street reconstruction project including the detailed schedule at a Public Information Centre on Thursday\, October 16. \nThe information centre will take place from 5 – 7 pm inside the Rotary Hall at the Prince Edward Community Centre (375 Picton Main Street). \nIf you are unable to attend the meeting in person\, the information will be posted on the County website the next day. \nThe municipality is tackling this project on York Street in Picton to ensure nearly 400 residential and commercial properties continue to have reliable sanitary sewer service. This project is a high priority because of the deteriorating condition of a large trunk sanitary sewer that runs underneath York Street. \nCounty Council awarded the tender in the amount of $855\,941 plus HST for the project on September 23 to Cobourg Development Services Ltd. Council approved the project in the 2024 capital budget. \nIn addition to replacing the existing sanitary sewer\, the project includes replacing the watermain\, installing a new asphalt roadway and sidewalk\, and adding a curb and storm sewer to accommodate the curb. \nReconstruction work on York Street will take place between Picton Main Street and Mary Street this fall and next spring — no work will take place during the winter months. Because of long-standing issues with soil stability in the area and to avoid damaging adjacent buildings\, the design team considered unique ways to replace the pipe without digging a trench. \nTo accommodate the most viable replacement method\, the municipality will have to close the eastbound lane of Picton Main Street for several weeks in the late fall this year. Temporary traffic signals will ensure one lane of traffic always remains open. Signage will direct drivers to an alternate route around the construction using Walton Street\, King Street\, and Paul Street. \nIf you have questions about this project\, please contact Jeff Shortt\, Project Manager\, at 613.476.2148 extension 1007 or email jshortt@pecounty.on.ca.

SUMMARY:Climate Action Plan: Public Consultation
DESCRIPTION:The County of Prince Edward is taking action on climate change as a participant in the Partners for Climate Protection (PCP) program. The input and feedback from the public is crucial as the municipality and the community work toward creating a Climate Action Plan for both mitigating and adapting to the impacts of climate change at both the municipal and community level. \nBackground\nCounty Council declared a climate emergency in 2019. In 2021\, the municipality took another step in implementing effective measures to mitigate climate change when it became an active member of the Partners for Climate Protection (PCP) program. \nThe PCP program is a national network of more than 400 municipalities with the shared goal of taking action against climate change and reducing local greenhouse gas emissions. As a member of the PCP program\, the municipality is committed to meeting five milestones over the next 10 years: \n\nMilestone 1: Creating a greenhouse gas (GHG) inventory and forecast\nMilestone 2: Setting emission reduction targets\nMilestone 3: Developing a Local Action Plan\nMilestone 4: Implementing the Local Action Plan\nMilestone 5: Monitoring and evaluating progress\n\nThese steps are followed by the corporation and by the community in a collaborative approach to developing a plan to address climate change. Municipal staff are leading the portion of the action plan aimed at reducing the GHG emissions within the local government’s direct control or influence. The Climate Action Plan Working Group is responsible for quantifying the GHG emissions generated within the community as a whole. \nAt each of the consultation events\, participants are invited to: \n\nLearn more about the work being done by County staff and the Climate Action Plan Working Group\nExplore the initial GHG findings\nPut forward their views on proposed actions as well as their own suggested remedies. All viewpoints will be taken into account as we develop the way forward for the County.\n\nLearn More: https://haveyoursay.thecounty.ca/climate-action-plan

SUMMARY:Public Consultation Centre: Picton Master Servicing Plan
DESCRIPTION:The County of Prince Edward is undertaking a Master Servicing Plan Study to determine infrastructure needs for water\, wastewater\, and stormwater for the Picton/Bloomfield serviced area\, to support future growth and planned developments in the area. \nThe recently completed Regional Water Supply Servicing Master Plan identified the preferred alternative of connecting Picton/Bloomfield to the Wellington Drinking Water System and obtaining full servicing capacity from a new regional water treatment plant in Wellington. This preferred alternative has been incorporated into the Picton Master Servicing Plan. \nThe Master Servicing Plan Study is being carried out in accordance with the requirements of Approach 2 for Master Plans of the Municipal Class Environmental Assessment Process\, which is an approved process under the Environmental Assessment Act. Phases 1 and 2 of the EA process will be completed. \nThis is the second Public Consultation Centre (PCC) being held in relation to this study. This second PCC will present the preliminary preferred recommendations and seek public feedback on the information presented. The PCC will follow an open-house format. Project team representatives and County Staff will be available to answer questions and discuss next steps. \n  \n

SUMMARY:Public Information Meeting: Queen Elizabeth School redevelopment
DESCRIPTION:The County of Prince Edward will host a public information meeting on Wednesday\, September 25 for the Queen Elizabeth School redevelopment. \nThe meeting will take place at the Rotary Hall inside the Prince Edward Community Centre (375 Picton Main Street) from 6-8 pm. \nThe goal of the meeting is to present the history and plans for the redevelopment and to give the public the opportunity to better understand and provide input to the re-development project. \nAt the meeting\, municipal staff will give a brief presentation before seeking neighbourhood resident input toward best use of the site at Barker and Centre Streets\, inviting a conversation on an integrated affordable housing model. \nFollowing the public meeting\, staff will consolidate the comments and feedback and provide them to the prospective partners for use as they refine their proposals.

SUMMARY:Public Information Centre: Organics Management Facility

These costs will increase in coming years due to growth and inflation. \nThe study will evaluate options for managing organic waste on a County-operated site. The study will evaluate several properties currently owned by the municipality as potential sites for operating a compost facility. The study will look at the requirements for developing a composting facility\, potential impacts to people and the environment\, possible technology choices\, and cost and make recommendations for a path forward. \nFollowing the PICs\, staff and the consultant for this study will complete the evaluation\, considering the feedback received at the PICs. Another PIC will be held in August to present the results of the review before the study outcomes are presented to Council in September 2024. \nIf you have questions regarding this study\, contact Albert Paschkowiak\, Environmental Services and Sustainability Supervisor\, at 613.476.2148 extension 4004 or email apaschkowiak@pecounty.on.ca.
