Hugh Mackenzie
Huntsville Doppler<\/p><\/div>\n

Well, the shoe dropped at Queen\u2019s Park last week. Premier Ford announced a review of all Regional Governments in Ontario. They call it District Government here, but it is the same thing, so that includes us. The announcement is one that should be of no surprise to the people of Muskoka. The Premier said he was going to do it and now he has quick-started the process.<\/p>\n

Muskoka District Council has been kicking around municipal reform for years but has done next to nothing about it. Now, someone from outside is going to do it for them. A shame really, when we could have had a made-in-Muskoka solution.<\/p>\n

The good news, if there is any, is that the two individuals appointed as Special Advisors to the Premier and Minister of Municipal Affairs, to advise them on Regional Government reform, are both people with extensive municipal governance experience, albeit, in much larger urban areas than we have in Muskoka. Michael Fenn is a retired Deputy Minister and former CEO of Metrolinx and Ken Seiling was Chair of the Region of Waterloo, for more than three decades.<\/p>\n

<\/broadstreet-zone><\/strong><\/div>\n

The problem for these two gentlemen, is that when it comes to Regional Government, Muskoka is really an anomaly when compared to the other seven in the province. Muskoka\u2019s entire population would fit into a single local tier municipality in most of the other regions. Our geography is vastly different, and we are the only regional government that is totally \u201csmall town\u201d in nature. And so, what works for the \u201cmega\u201d regional municipalities in reaching the goals of efficiency and delivery of service, will be an entirely different ball game to what will work in Muskoka.<\/p>\n

Of course, as this review proceeds, there will be a renewed hue and cry for a single tier, \u201cOne Muskoka\u201d form of governance. It has actually already started, with a viewpoint from the District of Muskoka CAO, Michael Duben, that the proposed review by the Province is a good idea. From a person, under whose leadership District government has expanded extensively over the past several years, that can only mean one thing.<\/p>\n

It is well known that I believe a single upper tier municipal government in Muskoka is a mistake. District\u2019s budget and its payroll are already way out of control. If inefficiencies, duplication and power brokering are to be found anywhere in our municipal structures, they are to be found there. There is much more accountability at the local, lower tier level where budgets, expenditures and acquisitions are less viral and more transparent, than they are at the District level. For these reasons, I believe it is vital that the District of Muskoka does not<\/strong> control the consultation process, as the review of the municipal structures in Muskoka proceeds.<\/p>\n

There is a proposal being floated around by the District, that they form a Committee of the Area Mayors (and probably the District Chair) to act as a consultative body during the review being undertaken by the Province. This is a very bad idea. It is little more than a ruse for District control of the review process.<\/p>\n

<\/broadstreet-zone><\/strong><\/div>\n

Mayors in Muskoka have two elected responsibilities. The first is as Head of Council in their municipality and the second is as a Muskoka District Councillor. In some ways, it is a conflict but under our present system, a necessary one. In any event, there are times when the interests and priorities of the District and the interests and priorities of lower tier municipalities are different, and a review of municipal structures in Muskoka is one of those times.<\/p>\n

In my view the Mayors of Muskoka should meet as a group, completely independently of District Government and District officials, in order to take a good look at what needs to come out of this Provincial Review from their lower tier perspective and to make their views, and that of their Councils, directly known to the people conducting it.<\/p>\n

They, as mayors, can discuss and recommend what they need from an upper tier government and what they do not need. Indeed, they can determine if current operations that overlap individual municipalities and cannot be delivered locally, can instead be provided through a \u201cService Board\u201d managed by the lower tier municipalities, thus doing away with the entire upper tier of District government. Should District government still exist, they could recommend that the various District departments, in their entirety (and not just as subsidiaries) be placed in Muskoka’s different towns and townships so that all municipalities benefit from their economic impact.<\/p>\n

There are dozens of ideas that local municipalities can bring to the table that may not be in the best interests of the District power structure but will provide a real reduction in governance and red tape, better access to municipal services, increased efficiencies and more direct accountability. In my view, that is why it is imperative that the Mayors of Muskoka develop their own process, totally without influence or participation from the District. They should respond as mayors, not as District councillors, on behalf of their constituents, directly to the Provincial Review Advisors.<\/p>\n

It is no less than their duty and the future existence of our towns and townships in Muskoka may well depend on it.<\/p>\n
