District of Muskoka EnviroHub
The District of Muskoka announced the launch of its new Envirohub.

The online portal will be a source of information on the District’s environmental programs, initiatives and project partners. 
The EnviroHub features everything from Muskoka’s Climate Change Strategy and the Greenhouse Gas Initiative to its Lake System Health Program and Floodplain Mapping projects.

COVID-19
We should all follow the Ontario Public Health Guidlines when it comes to protecting ourselves and others from COVID.


“As we move through the stages of the reopening of the economy there is an increased risk of resurgence of COVID-19 transmission in our communities.
“Our businesses and organizations that are open to the public have worked diligently to prevent the spread of COVID-19, and many appreciate patrons and clients wearing a face covering,” said Dr. Gardner.A face covering means a medical or non-medical mask or other face coverings that covers the mouth and nose.  A face covering is an extra step to reduce the risk of COVID-19 transmission, and is key for the continued successful reopening of the local economy and to safeguard our residents against the virus in circulation now.

MLA GOOD NEIGHBOUR CODE
​For many cottagers a Muskoka summer is a short, action packed six or eight weeks of waterfront bliss. It is a time to be active, spend time with family and above all, have a good time. In our desire to have the best summer ever, our judgement of appropriate and considerate behaviour can sometimes get a little off track. For that reason, the MLA has developed a Good Neighbour Code.We know full well that most of us already subscribe to these common-sense behaviours but often guests or renters may not be aware of some of our historical Muskoka etiquette.

SHORT TERM RENTALS 2020
Separately, as part of a public consultation process that began in early 2019, the Town of Huntsville has enacted bylaw 2019-122, which is an act to regulate short-term rentals in our area. This by-law has a significant impact on the rental of cottages in our area.
Please view following page for more detail.

PROPERTY TAXES
The Town of Huntsville has waived the penalty for late payment of interim tax payments for the twomonth period from April 1 to May 31, although encourages property owners who can to please pay according to their original due date. MPAC has announced that the 2020 Property Assessment Update has been postponed so that property assessments for 2021 will continue to be based on the 2016 assessment.

DISTRICT WASTE MANAGEMENT
There has been no change to our collection days, however the District requires that all garbage be securely contained, sealed and tied in garbage bags. Material for recycling in clear bags must also be sealed and tied while recyclables in bins must be secured so materials don’t overflow or blow/scatter. Although the Stisted landfill site remains open, the District requests that residents postpone nonessential trips and only drop off items if absolutely necessary.
