it is my pleasure, on behalf of Uxbridge Township Council and staff, to present our fall/winter 2012 Community guide.

This year, the Township Council formally created a Community health Committee, consisting of individuals representing many different aspects of health Care. The mission of this Committee is to actively promote Uxbridge as a healthy community, focusing on health related education, awareness, prevention and communication.

As a first step, in this edition, we have started a process of having a section devoted to community health awareness and communica-tion topics. we have begun by listing the contact information for all the health-related services that currently exist in the community. over time, we will expand this to add more information about available programs and services.

Uxbridge already has many great facilities to encourage healthy living and recreation. our goal is to build on those, and to identify where there are opportunities to be even better.

i encourage you to be active, and be informed.

There are five standing Committees of Council. They meet on a monthly schedule as follows:Council & Committee Meetings

The Thomas Foster MemorialThe foster Memorial is located: 4 km north of Uxbridge on durham 1 (Conc. 7) on the east side of the road. 9449 regional rd # 1, Uxbridge

The Thomas foster memorial was built for $250,000 in 1936 on a hill in the countryside of Uxbridge Township. The Taj Mahal inspired its structure (Agra, india). The roof surfaces are copper tile, and the entrance doors, windows, tracery and all metal parts are bronze. The beautiful stained glass windows are the work of Yvonne williams, and are of hand-painted, fired and leaded glass, the colour and designs are harmonious and are distributed so as to flood the interior with soft, colourful light. The 22 kgold mosaics with also multi-colors give elegance to this magnificent building. The floors are of rich coloured terrazzo and marble mosaics, wrought in symbolic designs. on entering, one crosses the river of oaths on which floats water lilies and lily pads. in the general design of the floor beneath the great dome, the motion, typifying life, radiates from the greek letters “Alpha and omega” this in turn flank the “Chi rho” monogram in its early byzantine form. The Laurel wreath of victory over death encircles the centre motif. Above, the drum of the dome is pierced with 12 stained glass, leaded windows, that in the east being in the form of a gold cross on a rich blue ground. Circling the lower part of the dome, above the great arches in gold lettering on a field of graded blue mosaic is the inscription…‘Take this my body for it is done and i have gained a new life, glorious and eternal’.

Uxbridge fire depArTMenT

The Uxbridge fire department responds to a number of Carbon Monoxide Alarms throughout the Township.

our records indicate that the possible causes of these alarms can be attributed to:

vehicles left running in the garage or in the driveway with • the garage door and/or the doorway from the garage to the residence open or ajar.faulty or damaged door sweeps and/or weather stripping • allowing the Carbon monoxide to enter the home.the detector has been in service or manufactured prior to • 2004.

To ensure a safe environment for you and your family we sug-gest that you take extreme care during the winter season and refrain from idling a vehicle in the garage, or in the driveway for an extended period with either the garage door and/or the door from the garage to the residence open/ajar.

The fire department also recommends that you inspect the door sweep and weather stripping around the door from the garage to your home and replace any damaged materials. in doing so, this will assist in preventing this dangerous invisible and odorless gas from entering your home.

if you have any questions please contact the fire prevention officer Ken Maynard at 905-852-3393.

GREEN FLASHING LIGHTS

Legislation was enacted by the government of ontario through an amendment to the highway Traffic Act, 1990 (hTA, 1990) that allows firefighters to display a flashing green light on their personal vehicle when responding to emergencies. The use of flashing green lights on vehicles is restricted to the ontario fire service.

The purpose of flashing green lights is to help other drivers rec-ognize a firefighter en-route to an emergency and be courteous and yield the right-of-way. firefighters using the flashing green light do not have any special privileges and cannot break any traffic laws.

The motoring public is asked to recognize that firefighters dis-playing flashing green lights are responding to an emergency and it would be appreciated if you could yield the right of way in order to speed their response. Volunteer firefighters are serving their local community . . . and who knows they may be respond-ing to assist one of your neighbours or even your family.

THANKS FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION!

heriTAge Uxbridge

heritage Uxbridge is a committee commissioned by the Uxbridge Council to act as an advocate for the preservation and conserva-tion of heritage properties in the township.

The committee is made up of dedicated volunteers who carry out a number of on-going responsibilities throughout the year, working with the community and the township members assist-ing with and advising in matters related to heritage and cultural aspects. in past years, the committee has developed and orga-nized guided tours, and published articles and maps that help promote Uxbridge’s cultural heritage. further, the committee continues to maintain a close watch on the pickering Airport lands, and will endeavour to help protect any properties of his-torical value found within that area. it also produced a heritage district sign by-law to help promote a heritage ‘look’ in the downtown district and continues to recognize individual’s homes of heritage or cultural value through the pride plaque program.

A few years ago, an award called the ‘Heritage Appreciation Award’ was established by the committee to recognize those individuals “for taking the initiative and action to preserve our past”. several local businesses, including rutledge Jewellers and the Tin Mill, have received this award. This year we will con-tinue to award local area heritage farms.

The heritage sign by-law guidelines is used as a reference to determine award recipients, and the boundaries include the entire township. information about how to receive this award along with ideas on improving building facades, windows and general landscapes in keeping with a heritage appearance, can be found in the heritage Uxbridge sign guidelines at the Township’s office.

2012 will also see the committee continue with initiatives associ-ated with the “downtown revitalization” project and the plans and policies that will guide the township with its development of the downtown core. further, the committee continues to maintain a close watch on the pickering Airport lands, and will endeavour to help protect any properties of historical and cul-tural value found within that area.

Last year the community of Leaskdale and the Lucy Maud Montgomery foundation saw themselves proud, as its origi-nal presbyterian church known mainly for its connection to Lucy Maud, received a provincial heritage designation. if you would like more information about this committee or have any questions about heritage Uxbridge heritage, please contact pat Mikuse at [email protected] or robin Coombs at [email protected]

ROAD WATCHWhat is Road Watch?A new community initiative designed to improve road safety by creating greater awareness and giving residents an opportu-nity to participate in identifying and reporting dangerous and aggressive driving in the Township of Uxbridge.

Why have Road Watch?To help reduce Motor Vehicle Collisions and potential injuries and fatalities in the Township of Uxbridge.

What is Aggressive Driving?Aggressive driving is defined as excessive speeding, tail- gating, failure to stop and any other unsafe driving that puts others at high risk for collision or injury.

How does Road Watch work?Citizen report forms may be used any time you observe an act of aggressive driving. record as much information as you can about the particular aggressive driving incident that you witnessed. This information will help the police in monitoring high risk areas in our community. To complete the report, include the license num-ber, the make and colour of the vehicle, the location (as exact as possible) and the nature of the incident. when you send in the report, it is important that you sign it. This helps safeguard the system against abuse. be assured that your personal information is for statistical use only and is held in the strictest of confidence. drivers reported will receive a letter from the police, describing the unsafe or aggressive driving incident that was witnessed. if a driver is reported more than once, the police will make personal contact with that individual regarding the reported problems in person or by telephone.

subsequent offenses may result in enforcement action by the police depending on the severity of the incident. remember, this is your opportunity to make our roads safer – the same roads you use everyday.

Citizen Report Forms may be picked up at any of the follow-ing drop box sites:

Canadian Tire• fast eddies diner• Annina’s bake shop & Cafe• Joy Village Market• shell – Coppins Corners• L.C.b.o – Uxbridge• Leaskdale Country store • Motor Licensing office• Quaker Village Variety store• sandford general store• Uxbridge public Library• Uxbridge Township office •

WINTER PARKING BY-LAWplease be advised that by-law 89-52 prohibits overnight parking from nov. 1 until April 1 between the hours of 2 am and 7 am on roadways and municipal lots within the Township of Uxbridge.

for residents living on regional roads please consult regional by-law 44-2006 for winter parking provisions.

WINTER SIDEWALK RESPONSIBILITIESby-law 2008-160 states; every owner or occupant of any building, whether such building is occupied or not, and every owner of any land within the boundaries of the Township, shall clear away and remove or cause to be cleared away and removed any slush, snow and ice from any sidewalk adjacent to any building or land within twenty-four (24) hours after the accumulation of such slush, snow or ice.

furthermore by-law 2008-160 also prohibits the deposit-ing of slush, snow and ice onto a highway or sidewalk.

MAILBOXESThe Township of Uxbridge would appreciate every resident checking their mailboxes before winter for rotten posts and to ensure the mailbox is securely attached to the post. by ensur-ing your mailbox is structurally sound, the probability of snow coming off the wing and plow in the winter and damaging your mailbox will greatly be reduced.

WINTER GARBAGE AND BLUE BOX COLLECTION TIPS

1.• do not place your blue boxes, green bins or garbage on snow banks or on the road.2.• put your waste containers out at the end of your driveway so they do not interfere with snow clearing equipment.

SNOW SAFETY parents remind your children that it is dangerous to play or build forts in snow banks adjacent the roads. The snow plow opera-tors may not see them. Children should never use streets and roads for sleeding or sled sown hills that enter onto a roadway or parking lot.

SAFETY AROUND SNOW REMOVAL EQUIPMENTsnow removal equipment use distinctive flashing blue lights to warn you that operations are underway. when these lights are on, slow down and stay well behind the plow to avoid flying snow and sand. drive with you headlights on and avoid driving in the snowplow’s blind spots. if you must pass the plow, be sure there is enough visibility to avoid the snow coming from the plow’s blade.
