Counties make room

L’ORIGNAL | The United Counties now has a plan to deal with accessibility concerns for residents of Prescott-Russell. The United Counties of Prescott-Russell council (UCPR) approved a five-year acces- sibility plan along with a new integrated ac- cessibility policy during its Sept. 25 public session. The goal of both the plan and the policy is to bring the UCPR and its member municipalities in line with the provincial government’s Integrated Accessibility Stan- dards (ISR) included in the 2005 Accessibil- ity for Ontarians with Disabilities Act. The five-year plan runs from 2013 to 2017 and features a list of goals for each year. The first year’s objectives include rede- signing the UCPR website and its content to meet the World Wide Web Consortium’s content accessibility guidelines, revising the counties human resources department procedures for job offers and other mat- ters to meet ISR guidelines, interior and/ or exterior renovations at public housing units and other UCPR buildings in Russell and Hawkesbury and other locales to meet accessibility standards. The social housing refits will continue in 2014 and next year’s capital works budget will also include mon- ey for exterior work on counties buildings and other facilities along with installing ac- cessible pedestrian walk signals in Cassel- man at the intersections of County Roads 3 and 7 and at the intersection of Principale Street and Laflèche/Racine Streets. The three years from 2015 to 2017 will feature more modifications of county road intersections to meet pedestrian accessibil- ity needs, improvements of counties build- ings, and replacement of exterior lighting in social housing buildings, plus a continual maintenance improvement plan for future accessibility concerns at UCPR buildings.

Aerial survey for groundwater study
VISION@EAP.ON.CA PRESCOTT-RUSSELL
If there is a plane doing circles around your property do not be alarmed. It may be just looking for water. The Ontario Geological Survey (OGS) is doing an aerial survey this fall of Eastern Ontario to collect data for a study on On- tario’s groundwater sources. Survey results will help the OGS better understand and map the structural bedrock geology that determines where groundwa- ter reserves are located in the region and how those sources flow. The information and results will be avail- able to the general public and will become part of planning studies for the City of Ot- tawa, local conservation authorities, and other government agencies and stakehold- er groups concerning use of and impacts on local aquifers and other groundwater sources.
