Bag tags required for garbage delivery to Salford

Woodstock should have a different colour sticker than the townships 

By Mark Schadenberg

Reserve your thoughts about a reserve fund to replace an Oxford landfill until after the full scenario has been served.
There are 4 givens – in my opinion.

Oxford citizens have accomplished a remarkable dedication to improving all statistics when consideration is made for recycling, reusing, reducing, and diverting from the dump. Some strong local environmentalists like Bryan Smith of Sweaburg (Transition to Less Waste) are dedicated to nature, including several reuseit-palooza events where people donate useful items they don’t need anymore, and others take those exact same items home for free.
It is a given that it costs money to operate the County-owned landfill just east of Salford.
It costs money to bring the garbage to the landfill from Woodstock, Ingersoll, Tillsonburg and the 5 townships. 
The garbage pickup program is set up to be cost recovery, but there is exactly where the problem arises for Woodstock residents in paying $3 for each tag. In my neighbourhood, for example, there are 2 condo townhouse complexes on Cardinal across the street from each other, so a garbage truck may pick up -- in theory -- as many as 40 bags in the identical location. In the countryside, meanwhile, a truck could be picking up 1 bag every 200 metres. I fail to understand the Oxford logic on this calculation. Township residents should pay $3 (or more) per pink tag, while Woodstock, Tillsonburg and Ingersoll households should pay $1. At County Council Deb Tait and mayor Jerry Acchione voted no to the most recent sticker shock increase as did Deb Gilvesy (Tillsonburg mayor), but for some (unknown) reason Bernia Martin for Woodstock voted in favor.  

Circular Materials 
The Province of Ontario is now the sole collector of recyclable materials (Circular Materials) and in Oxford the third-party contractor for pick up chores is Emterra, but the true cost is supposed to be paid by the creators or producer responsibility of the recycling products. 
The County no longer accepts recycling at its Salford location. I fully realize the lack of volume makes it difficult to find a buyer for items collected and there is a significant cost in separating various forms of plastic, paper fibres, pop cans, etc. Woodstock has the same issue with no longer collecting recycling. There is a lot of givens, but the County should accept recycling products to assist nature in the diversion process -- it's smart and my name isn't David Suzuki.
Also, Circular Materials avoids collecting the recycling of commercial / industrial, so those companies have to register for a different system.  

Currently, only Woodstock and Southwest Oxford are utilizing the full system, which also includes diverting organics from the landfill. The little green buckets with a lid and wheels, and compostable bags is a great evolution.  
The Oxford dump is in Salford, and according to the 2026 county budget, the landfill plans an expansion by 2031 into a new area at their site.  
The Oxford County Waste Management & Education Centre officially opened in June 2018 -- a vast improvement over an old farm house as offices. The net-zero energy facility includes a solar photovoltaic system that produces enough electricity to offset the amount of electricity used by the entire Waste Management Facility.
The Oxford County Waste Management site has a link on the county website which includes a video for a virtual tour of what exactly happens at the landfill. The facility costs money to run and someday it will be full, but when is that as the County has created a reserve fund for that rainy day.
According to the County website, the current closing date for Salford is projected to be 2053. How much would a new facility, including an office and all start up expenses would be required 27 years from now? It's a great question.
Where the County – in my opinion – is falsely calculating its operating costs is that they have created 2 bank accounts, including a reserve fund to pay for a future dump when it’s required in 2 or 3 decades, and a second ledger for picking up garbage and transporting it to Salford. 

The County is big business with an overall budget of over $400 million with more than $275 million on the operating side. Municipal taxes for Woodstock residents went up by 5.2% in the 2026 County budget, which is a higher percentage than it really should be.  The big difference isn't necessarily landfill operations, but rather why did the County require 20 more full-time employees across the board.

There is no place in budget for Phase 3

Downtown Streetscape program doesn't fit into the numbers

By Mark Schadenberg

The 2026 approved budget for the City of Woodstock is divided into 2 segments – capital and revenue.

There was no designation of dollars for 2026 for Dundas Streetscape, and I will continue to vote against the idea. 

The Capital budget is all about road and bridge improvements (Often including water and wastewater, but that’s a County portion of the expenditure), planned renovations and / or additions at city facilities, new building projects and saving for a rainy day with reserve funds.  Items on this list for 2026 were approved by City Council with the range including playgrounds, expanded trails, new artificial turf at Cowan Sportsplex indoor soccer pitch (Partially from a reserve fund created previously), upgrades in the technology department with equipment, new desks where required, replacing obsolete fleet like buses, perhaps a fire truck (2026 did include a new aerial truck), pickup trucks and maybe a snow plow or accessories for heavy equipment, but most certainly includes Asset Management plans for every area of the city especially roads overdue for visits from bulldozers for new infrastructure including actual roads and sidewalks.

The budgets for revenue or operating departments for 2026 were approved in early 2026 for all departments -- the museum and art gallery to parks and works, to technology and communications, police and library, to building permit issuing to health and safety, human resources, city clerks, management, city council, and of course financing. Revenue budgets include lines for insurance and all employee benefits.

If a candidate for Oct. 26 election is at your doorstep, be sure to ask them how the system works as the 2027 – 2030 projected budgets exist, but are most certainly not approved as in Woodstock we approve budgets year-by-year. The forecast, therefore, is a game plan for 2027 – 2030 -- or a pencil prognostication.

(Note: In nearby London there is a 4-year budget system that is analyzed and re-assessed each year for tweaking and modifications)

The forecasted years start with 2027 – to be addressed after the elections. Therefore, if you live on Kensington and Knightsbridge (Leinster to Bayswater and to Grosvenor) expect 2027 to be a summer of earth moving and road improvements. Also on the 2027 vision is George Street, Princess Street and Adelaide (Wellington to Riddell) plus more Wellington work to connect these east-west roads, along with Hunter Street from Vansittart to Oxford, and Sloane Street from Clarke to Springbank.    

 

Also, if you reside on Bain Street, for example, your neighbourhood is slated for 2029, but most certainly that could be modified as 2028 approaches, but likely will happen soon as Asset Management is my top priority. In other words, you can not and should not delay necessary road projects.

What about 2026?

And, if your curious about 2026 budget items, let it be added that the now-occuring dredging / cleanout of the Finch (Trevor Slater Park) stormwater management pond was penciled in for $1.9 million for 2026, while the soon-to-be-happening Victoria Street South project (to Main Street) in an extremely important Asset Management construction item still in this year’s calendar horizon.

All candidates should know these happenings as it’s public knowledge and easily attained information. If they don’t know what Asset Management is, don’t vote for them. Has your favourite candidate seen the expense line for re-paving a large parking lot at Cowan Sportsplex for $200,000?

Additionally in 2026, the City ordered a new aerial fire suppression truck with a cost over $2 million, but every year an amount is set aside to replace expensive vehicles so a reserve fund assists with this purchasing power. Reserve funds also exist for replacing the Butler Street bridge, the roof at the Finkle community complex, for this year’s replacement of the artificial turf at Cowan Sportsplex, and several others.

More money was budgeted for 2026 for: new plow truck, mini excavator back hoe,  guard rail replacements, pedestrian cross-over system, HVAC equipment at Cowan Sportsplex, roof RTU replacement at library, front office renovation at police station, portable radios for police force, storage bunkers at Van Ave fire hall, ball diamond re-development at Brompton, new training equipment for pool life guards, change room renovation at gymnastics centre at complex, completion of Cowan Fields cricket pitch, and basement repairs at City Hall.

Most important on the list of additions to reserve funds is an account for the Northeast recreation complex at Cowan Fields.   Yes, another trivia question to ask candidates about. As an aside, the expectations on this facility are exciting but a community-driven fundraising committee should be established. It’s interesting to note that many of the Pittock dam (Roth Park and Day-Use park sites also) improvements have occurred thanks to a family donation, and the brand new scoreboards at ball diamonds in Southside Park were also made possible due to a donation of funds from a local family.

The Cowan Park sports facility could be multi-use with a satellite library also, and maybe a daycare centre. The current components are 2 arenas, 1 pool, 1 gymnasium, and corresponding meeting rooms or offices. The Northeast planned complex is the future.

If you’re curious where Phase 3 of the Downtown Streetscape fits into the 2027 plans? It doesn’t. Enough spending on a budget line that is not necessary. The Peel Street road work on the south side of the Oxford Admin building was certainly necessary through the City’s comprehensive Asset Management Plan.

AMO Conference in Ottawa was held last week

Doug Ford spoke for 22 minutes as a keynote address 

Compiled by Mark Schadenberg

AMO is the Association of Municipalities of Ontario and the 400+ communities in the province gathered for their annual convention last week in Ottawa with Premier Doug Ford among the guest speakers.

A link to the full 22-minute speech is below, but I have created a synopsis of sorts.

Mark Critch is among the hosts of the show This Hour Has 22 Minutes, but Ford’s dialogue was timed in at 22:43.  

Doug Ford at AMO on August 17

Ontario’s desire is to raise the strongest economy anywhere in the G7. 

These paragraphs capture his podium time.

There is a million more people working than in recent years, large companies are investing in Ontario and paying taxes, so Ontario has attracted $235 billion in investment since 2018 and good paying jobs in every corner of the province. Ontario had 52,000 new jobs in July.

He did refer to the economy as ‘uncertain times’, but government has created conditions to attract investment.

‘Ring of Fire’ roads are under construction and are ahead of schedule by 5 years. There is $22 billion in economic possibilities in the north.

Priorities also include paved runways to the area -- airports to move people and supplies and mining materials.

Another priority is a pipeline from Alberta to Sarnia for gas production – a pipeline made by Canadian workers with Canadian steel. Northern Shield Energy Corridor is transformational, noted Ford.

The data centre ‘playbook’ was discussed and the importance of keeping Canadian data in Canada. Data sovereignty in our hands, but with our ‘natural competitive advantages’, clean hydro system, world-class workforce, and, but projects must strengthen Ontario and must invest in local infrastructure, strict environment standards including water and noise, cooler climate, available land, and maintain control of our sensitive data.  Safeguarding information, so will rely on cities to help build the future, which will help build municipal facilities and broadband infrastructure, while attracting revenue to the province.

“Ontario will choose only the best projects.” When it comes to data centres.

More hospitals and schools and better transit, and improved roads and bridges– a plan to build with a $236 billion plan. Hospitals’ total is $64 billion for new sites or additions, and $22 billion on larger K-12 schools or new schools, billions on long-term care, and $6.4 billion on colleges and universities. Can’t deliver world-class services without a strong economy.

The $8.8 billion committed to affordable housing is a partnership with the federal government.

Reducing development charges (DCs) up to 50% on the construction of new homes. Woodstock council did this. (Some communities have pledged a number higher than 50%). A detached home under construction in Woodstock previously included a DC of about $25,000 for road expansions, but more importantly recreation and cultural facilities. Townhouses and apartments had a much lower rate.

Buyers of brand new homes could save up to $200,000 along with HST reduction on new homes built, plus reduction in DC charges.

Province is assisting municipalities by building more jail cells, fixing bail system, closing safe injection sites, cleaning up drug quantities available on the street, clearing encampments, cracking down on crime so people are more safe.

Ring Of Fire

Investing in world-class recreation facilities across provinces to build and upgrade arenas, playing fields, and pools as they are community gathering places. It’s the Community Sports and Recreation Fund. Projects are always over applied (over subscribed) so, get your plan into the province now for eligible projects.

Never been more optimistic about this province’s future. He said this despite the on-going tariff issues with the U.S. in various economic sectors. Ford says his talks with U.S. state officials and industry leaders, share his thoughts on worrisome tariff additions due to unstable economic forecasts. ‘Build the most successful economic partnership in the entire world, and create lasting prosperity . . . across North America.”  

Ford mentioned how proud he is of front-line workers battling forest fires and a ‘national fire strategy’ to buy 60 more water bomber planes.

My thoughts . . . 

It’s easy to create a capsule of a speech that appears to be all good news, but Ford has had his share of missteps (in my opinion) in recent years, including this list I have compiled. Ford has been the Progressive Conservation - Premier since 2018.

Created a system of ‘Strong Mayor’ powers and the expanded it basically to municipalities with 7 or more elected members on council.

Green belt land swap controversy. 

Paying $28 million for a plane, but then selling it.

Reducing the number of conservation authorities to 9. Less environment accountability.
Changed the locally-based recycling program to a producer-created system

Tunnel under 401 proposed.

Toronto second airport – Billy Bishop to expand or not. Costly consultations and projections before shelved by federal government.

Permitting sale of beer in all variety stores. Cost for the plan was over $1.4 billion

Pouring out Diageo whiskey when Amherstburg bottler was announced to be shuttered. This is on the list as Crown Royal is made in Gimli, Manitoba.

Green belt land swap. (Yes, I'm repeating myself. Precious property (Wetlands and green space) can not be sold to developers or utilized for highway construction.)

Ministerial Zoning Orders to over-step municipal plans for growth and where industry could be built.

Not protecting Indigineous land rights.

Bill 5 passing weakens protections against the environment and wildlife.

Provincial Property Statement on intensification -- building up and not out, but also permitting excessive ARUs in R1 zoned areas.

Woodstock was told that OMAFRA property was deemed surplus and would be sold only for residential only -- not a commercial plaza as an example.

Creating system where Ontario hires managers for regional governments in geography like Waterloo Region and Niagara. Could Oxford be next?

Under funding some services like healthcare (hallway healthcare and not enough front-line health professionals). Doctors, nurses, social workers are all needed.

Is funding for Hart Hubs arriving to each project fast enough during crisis of overdoses?

Province is about 20,000 beds short in its commitment to long-term care facilities.

What changes could occur long-term in school board administration, including elected trustees.

Funding shortfalls to a school system to allow for proper number of educational assistants in the classroom.   Woodstock did receive its highly-anticipated Turtle Island elementary.

Skills Development Fund department money misspent and directed poorly by the cabinet portfolio.

Moving the Ontario Science Centre.

Wellness centre and spa transformation of Ontario Place.

Created camera speed traps and then eliminated program.

Created and encouraged mandatory bike lanes and then eliminated the program.

Reducing the number of weeks that Queen’s Park sits.

Feel free to comment with more to add to the list over the past 8 years

Plus other controversies driven by his cabinet ministers like renting in hotels when they live near Queen’s Park.

Some disputes were in areas I would applaud the provincial legislature including stricter access to ‘freedom of information’, including access to government cell phones. All elected officials, including those on city council, are pressured to often in areas such as transparency by citizens who don't watch council or read the agendas.

Understanding fully the issues at the municipal and county levels

only happens when you follow happenings at Queen's Park

Legion and Chamber to host a Woodstock municipal election debate

Mayor and Deputy Mayor debate set for Oct. 2

(Edited; Info Added)

A public debate for candidates is a terrific way to determine who you might vote for, especially when there's a great range of issues discussed.

Anyone seating on council MUST make a decision and be prepared to answer about their thoughts on an agenda item, including concise reasoning. It's never easy and it shouldn't be easy as often a lot is at stake, especially during budget season.

The first debate announced for the Oct. 26 election for Woodstock has been announced and it's at 7:30 a.m. on Friday, Oct. 2 at the Legion Branch 55 building on Dundas Street.

Mayor & Deputy Mayor candidates are invited

I will not be participating, but I'm also not permitted to as the Woodstock District Chamber of Commerce has announced that it will be a forum for candidates for Mayor and Deputy Mayor only. Lots to discuss, therefore, as the questions will surround City happenings and the County's level of government.

On Thursday, Oct. 1, from 4 - 6, there will be an open house meet-and-greet for all candidates running for all 4 levels / positions. A terrific opportunity to chat with me 1-on-1 or others. That Chamber sponsored event will take place at South Gate Centre on Old Wellington Street South.

Mike Crabbe is the General Manager of the Chamber and it's an exceptional association to join for events, mentoring, networking and marketing

Going forward -- As I see information posted anywhere, including social media, I will promote those events / planned debates here. 

I'm looking forward to a great campaign for a City - County Council position.

Also, refer to this site for lots of election details and my resume as many posts on social media I have seen have been slanted or incomplete, and that also refers to other candidates as well.

A Chamber 'Save The Date' Reminder !!

On the buses; a mode of transportation

City's transit system could change significantly soon

By Mark Schadenberg

Woodstock Transit is on par with other municipal services as City staff, including drivers, go above-and-beyond to create a mode of transportation that is not perfect but ideal for the times as costs and deficits must be considered along with routes and scheduling times.

In a previous post, I mentioned that I believe buses should start at 5 a.m., so those employed with a start time of 6 can utilize the convenience. Currently, those 6 a.m. workers are unable to use the service as the first bus routes each morning leave the depot at Dundas and York at 6 a.m. A similar conundrum exists for those on a shift ending at midnight as transit ends weekdays at 10 p.m.

Would it cost a lot more to extend hours 5 a.m. to 1 a.m. weekdays? Most certainly. Would there be an increase in ridership for this notion? I’m confident to indicate -- most certainly. Would the amount the City subsidizes each fare change? Likely no, but the overall annual deficit of the program would increase due to wages and benefits, depreciation and maintenance on the vehicles, signage and bus stops, fuel, and insurance.

The City transit department, which has its office at 944 James with engineering, building inspectors, works, water, and others – is currently revamping the bus system and it’s a task analyzed approximately every 4 years. Should there be more bus routes? Should the buses have more cross-over maps so you transfer at Dundas and York for sure, but also at various other locations scattered around the Friendly City for your convenience and timing? Should the buses go farther east than Queenston and Upper Thames on the north side of Pittock. Has the time arrived that buses should complete a circle route. around Pittock featuring perhaps Devonshire to County Rd 4 and then the 17^th back to Vansittart? (The trek could go both ways on its route.) South of the 401, has the time arrived for transit to move eastward to Alyea instead of turning at Jack Ross on Pattullo? Eastwood is now part of Woodstock, so should buses visit the Oxford Grill on Highway 2?   

As a part-time taxi driver, I wouldn’t declare a conflict if hours were extended to 5 a.m. – 1 a.m. each weekday as it’s an improvement or enhancement of an existing amenity.

The 2026 City budget indicates wages for the calendar to be projected at $886,000 for full-time staff and $565,000 for part-time drivers, while transit fares to be guesstimated at $800,000. The City additionally receives money from ‘dedicated gas tax’ at around $600,000, advertising quota at about $85,000 revenue, and an annual transfer of funds from a portion of monies Woodstock receives from Gateway Casino.

As for expenses on the operating / revenue ledger total expenses are just over $4 million, including wages.

Let’s understand that all municipal services are subsidized – the library with no late fees, swimming lessons, free admission to museum and art gallery, police and fire departments, ice-time and ball diamond rentals, free tennis and pickleball hours, city events like Cowapolooza and Fall Fest, and several more.

The Bus Transit Study began late last year and included online participation and an in-person public meeting. City Council will have to approve all changes, so the final report could include options and many possibilities or simply indicate that the full report is recommended to be passed. 

Citizens must realize that senior staff always include a recommendation with their report and in the case of transit it would likely be stipulated that any-and-all changes would take effect on Jan. 1, 2027 or another date depending on a timetable to print maps or whether it’s an early decision to be determined by the next council.

The Paratransit program could also see significant alterations. 

See the transit pages on the city website for more details and updates as they are revealed and made public after council’s approval.

I will publish a link to the full report when it’s issued by transit.

Working part-time for Kendall Cab reveals . . .

So many stories in the City of Woodstock

By Mark Schadenberg

Story time.

I’m extremely proud of my 8 years (2 terms) now on Woodstock City Council and that tenure can certainly not be wrapped up in one word: Experience. I would suggest I earned the resume to be a city council member well before 2018 as can be observed quickly in my background / list of accomplishments.

I think it’s a safe guess for anyone reading this that even though Woodstock’s population has eclipsed 50,000 in the past 4 years – the role of being on city council is first and foremost about community service, and lending your local knowledge, concise understanding and skills in countless areas to make this city a great place, but with strong guard rails on spending. I can let you know, each-and-every topic of debate is multi-pronged and overlaps many other concerns and priorities. It truly is a tangled web that must be fully comprehended in its complexity.

The elected city council-only position has a remuneration of less than $40,000 per year with very little in the way of benefits (dental, eye appointments, etc). In actuality, the only true additional compensation I receive is for monthly mileage to attend UTRCA board meetings in London as true participation requires face-to-face board room discussion as opposed to a Zoom connection.

My Other Hat

This submission today, therefore, is actually more about my part-time work as a cab driver for Kendall. Meeting the citizens of Woodstock in all walks of life has contributed greatly to my empathy and connections to all residing in The Friendly City at this time. Cab-time conversations range from the transit system to parks, the Downtown streetscape project to homelessness (unhoused), population growth and taxation to rinks and pools, and everything else under the sun.

Customers range from an 8-year-old needing to arrive at school or providing transportation for the elderly on their way to shopping, medical appointments or church. Lots of families have 1 car, so they rely on Kendall to get a spouse to work. Many teenagers have jobs in retail or fast food and need a ride. Each person – the ones who are regulars who like to chat – each have a different and unique story.

The fares also include patients / clients of the 461 Dundas methadone clinic, or the Oxford County Community Health Centre (OCCHC) on Metcalf, CMHA, Wellkin, Indwell, Ingamo and DASO, Operation Sharing / The Inn, the hospital, and doctors’ offices. Each and everyone has a different story – life experiences, and usually wit and humour also, and sometimes chatter about the Blue Jays or Leafs.

Also, a few taxi riders have their fares covered by Ontario Works or perhaps ODSP (Ontario Disability Support Program) or WDDS.

Three quick tales. About three months ago, I brought a woman in her 80s to Walmart. She utilizes a walker for mobility, so upon arrival I exited the car to retrieve her walker from the back hatch. While I was doing this, the customer stole my money pouch which resembles a pencil case. At this point, I had about $120 collected. (More than 50% of payments are either debit or credit card nowadays, plus charges also include no actual cash) When she entered the store, I switched my tablet to ‘available’ but quickly noticed my money had vanished. I entered the store, found her, and she said that she thought my money holder was hers, but she did give it back. It’s sad to see that a senior feels it necessary to resort to stealing to buy daily needs, but today’s cost of living is certainly difficult even though she resides in a geared-to-income building.

As a member of the Woodstock Environment Advisory Committee (WEAC) and the UTRCA board, I have coordinated 1 area along the Pittock Lake trails for the springtime Thames River Cleanup program. This past April, my crew included an Indwell resident who has an almost-daily personal dedication to pick up garbage along Devonshire and elsewhere in that neighbourhood. Someone giving back to their community as best they can. (Note: Read previous post about garbage and landfill.)

I would add that driving a cab is certainly in-part community service (and it is), but that I wouldn’t be employed in this role if I did not require the dollars / salary, and didn’t enjoy people. Many of the Kendall crew of drivers are very courteous and kind to the clientele.

As a taxi driver, the long days, which sometimes can be more than 10 hours, do include moments of quiet down time between calls, so those opportunities are ideal for phone calls, reading agendas, texting or emailing, or simply standing on a curb and enjoying fresh air.

Recently, I’ve had the almost-sad task of delivering 2 older women to The Inn who are unhoused. I would be extremely surprised if either has an addiction, but life circumstances have led these friends to not have accommodations. They’re on a waiting list, but physical limitations translates into only being able to consider main-floor apartments. As said, everyone at The Inn has different backgrounds.

As a city council member, and with concern for the future plans of the former YMCA and its renovations over the next 16+ months, I chatted with Operation Sharing executive director Tim Dukes about these 2 particular residents of The Inn. Again, every story is different. The Inn is for the unhoused and there are many reasons why these 2 in particular (or dozens of others) are utilizing their services. I truly hope the caring employees of The Inn will have a place to work when the Y opens as a 24/7 shelter. (I have previously posted that the county paid too much for the Y, should not have sole-source the architect, should have consulted neighbours before closing the deal, should be more prepared on the topic of security and services to be offered to residents such as storage of belongings, and the county also did not consult sufficiently with local first responders and Woodstock council).

Among the many stories are why encampments have become the destination for many as there are empty beds every night at The Inn. 

At the same time, many people with drug addictions continue to be fully employed with a home, and can still take advantage of the Oxford County Hart Hub (Homelessness and Addiction Recovery Treatment) – a service calling 369 Huron home until 16 Graham is ready with its approximate 50 hospital / care beds. Everyone does own a unique story.

The connections between employment with Kendall and fully understanding the community with all its facets, is a link in the overall chain of my hands-on knowledge about Woodstock and Oxford. On Oct. 26, Vote Mark Schadenberg for City & County Council.
