NEW BUSINESS The City of Niagara Falls Canad Corporate Services Department CD- 2006 -17 Members: Clerk's Division 4310 Queen Street P.O. Box 1023 Niagara Falls, ON L2E 6X5 web site: www.city.niagarafalls.on.ca Tel.: (905) 356 -7521 Fax: (905) 356 -7404 E -mail: diorfida @city.niagarafalls.on.ca His Worship Mayor Ted Salci and Members of the Municipal Council City of Niagara Falls, Ontario November 20, 2006 Re: CD- 2006 -17 Accessibility at the MacBain Community Centre Dean lorfida City Clerk RECOMMENDATION: That Council receive the information contained in the report; and That the Niagara Region's Facility Accessibility Design Standards be adopted as a guide for development of future municipal facilities. BACKGROUND: In September 2005, the attached memo was provided to Council responding to concerns about accessibility at the MacBain Community Centre. As indicated at the time, the MacBain Community Centre did meet the Ontario Building Code standards for accessibility. A number of items, such as signage and curb cuts, were still outstanding. Also, although the City's Disability Advisory Committee had provided input to the architects, not every building facet of the facility could have been predicted at the meeting stage. Since that time, the Disability Advisory Committee and staff have worked toward making minor, minimal cost adjustments that have made the facility even more accessible. Committee member Brian Kon, who has advised on barrier -free design, was instrumental in making suggestions on where improvements could be made. Working Together to Serve Our Community Clerks Finance Human Resources Information Systems Legal Planning Development November 20, 2006 2 CD- 2006 -17 Some of the improvements implemented include: Door tensions were adjusted from 15 lbs. to a more appropriate 5.5 lbs. It turns out that the contractors had failed to appropriately set the tensions prior to occupancy. Toilets were too low. Committee member Gary Taylor donated risers so now there are accessible toilets on both floors of the Centre. The central curb cut was finalized. An additional curb cut was added at the north end of the sidewalk. The Disability Advisory Committee consulted on the location of additional disabled parking spots. The Centre now has nine (9) spots which are conveniently located to the south end of the front sidewalk. The spots are spacious and ideal for those who may need to get an assisted device out of a van. Striping to assist the visually impaired was placed in the Library. A wheelchair was donated for use of the patrons of the Centre. Municipal Works staff provided a curb cut on a traffic island on the south east corner of McLeod and Montrose and removed a mound of dirt on the north east side of the corner to allow those traveling to the Centre in scooters to have better and more seamless travel. Based on the experience with the MacBain Community Centre, the Disability Advisory Committee has specific suggestions related to the City's twin pad complex. A meeting has already taken place with Denny Bryan of BBA Architects. The Committee has made the following suggestions: Automatic doors, where possible. Accessible seats in the arena. Doorless washrooms. This will avoid issues with door tension. Variable ticket and concession counters. CONCLUSION: As indicated in this writer's memo of September 2005: Unfortunately, developers, architects, builders and labourers are not always up to speed on barrier -free accessibility. It will probably take a number of years for the building professionals to readily recognize and implement barrier free features that are not costly and will make buildings truly accessible. The Niagara Region recently adopted a 100 page document entitled Facility Accessibility Design Standards. The document provides guidelines for universal design in a myriad of areas including washrooms, entrances, drinking fountains, passage ways, amongst others. The City's Disability Advisory Committee has provided the document to the arena architects as a guide. It would be prudent of the municipality to adopt the Region's Facility Accessibility Design Standards document for consideration for future municipal facilities. An excerpt of the document is provided for Council's information and a full copy may be accessed at: http /www.regional.niagara.on.ca/ government works /operational- Support- Services. aspx November 20, 2006 Recommended by: Dean Iorfida City Clerk Approved by: cf;r T. Raven Executive Director of Corporate Services 3 Respectfully submitted: John MacDonald Chief Administrative Officer CD- 2006 -17 e� Clerk's Department Inter Departmental Memorandum To: Adele Kon Date: September 26, 2005 Director of Parks, Recreation Culture From: Dean Iorfida City Clerk Ext. 4271 Subject: Accessibility New Community Centre Adele: The City of 0 0F. Niagara Falls Canad On September 15 the City's Disability Advisory Committee toured the new Community Centre. Overall, the Committee members were impressed by the new building. As one of the community members mentioned the Community Centre looks like the type of facility found in a larger, more affluent community. It is certainly impressive. I have been hearing that there have been some comments that the facility is not accessible. Such comments are exaggerated. Although there are a number of areas where the Committee had concerns, many of the matters can be rectified with some minor changes that should not be costly as the attachment from Jason MacLean, Health Wellness Coordinator and Staff Liaison to the Committee, indicates. Also, when we visited there were still a number of matters that had not been finalized (i.e., a front curb cut, signage etc.). Secondly, the Community Centre, as with any building, has to comply with the Ontario Building Code and the accessibility requirements contained in that Act; therefore, the building is accessible under the letter of the law:... Contrary to what some people may think the Ontarians with Disabilities Act does not contain stipulations-as to accessible features (i.e., washrooms, ramps, doors etc.). It is always our Committee's hope that a building will exceed Ontario Building Code requirements, however, our Committee is realistic. Unfortunately, developers, architects, builders and labourers are not always up to speed on barrier free accessibility. It will probably take a number of years for the building professionals to readily recognize and implement barrier free features that are not costly and will make buildings truly accessible. The Disability Advisory Committee did consult with the staff, the architects and consultant on the Community Centre in 2003. The committee is comforted by the fact that there comments were considered. Of course, not every building facet could be predicted at the time of our meeting. An attached memo on parking provides an example of the "continued consultation between the Committee and the architects. It should be noted that our Committee is committed to working with the architect, Parks Rec staff and YMCA to ensure that the facility implements some barrier free improvements. It is appropriate that any future concerns are brought to the Committee's attention. A number of Committee members, such as Brian Kon, have experience in barrier free design (Brian will be providing a report to Jason in the near future). Bottom line, as Committee member, Sandy Bird mentioned to me: "our Committee should be a part of the solution. There are problems but they can easily be fixed."

The intent of this standard is to apply to both the design and construction of new facilities, as well as the retrofit, alteration or addition to existing facilities, owned, leased or operated by the Region of Niagara. This standard particularly addresses the needs of persons with disabilities, including, but not limited to, persons who are mobility impaired, hearing impaired, visually impaired or cognitively impaired, persons who are deaf -blind and persons with limited stamina and /or dexterity. This standard is intended to encompass the intent of the Ontario Human Rights Code, in terms of respecting the dignity of persons with disabilities. The phrase respects their dignity' means to act in a manner which recognizes the privacy, confidentiality, comfort, autonomy and self esteem of persons with disabilities, which maximizes their integration and which promotes full participation in society." (Ontario Human Rights Commission) This standard embodies universal design that recognizes the broad diversity of people who use facilities. Universal design is defined as: "The design of products and environments to be usable by all people, to the greatest extent possible, without the need for adaptation or specialized design." The universal design philosophy is structured around the seven design principles listed below. (Refer to Appendix A for further information on the universal design principles and their guidelines.) This standard reflects minimum dimensional criteria required for adult persons. Prior to the design stage of a project, special consideration should be given to the function of the facility and the patrons who will use it. A review and upgrade of this standard may be required in some instances, particularly if a facility is designed primarily for the use of a particular type of user, such as children or older persons. Where conflicts exist between scoping and /or dimensional requirements of this standard and legislation enacted by the federal or provincial governments, the most accommodating requirements shall apply (i.e., the requirement(s) that will result in the most accommodating environment but never less than the minimum requirements of the current Ontario Building Code). The Facilities Management Division of the Region of Niagara shall review and/or update this standard every 3- 5 years, to reflect technological advancement and new construction practices, as well as changes to the barrier -free design requirements of the Ontario Building Code and the CSA Standard B651 Barrier -Free Design. This standard recognizes the concept of equivalent facilitation as a means to encourage new and innovative design ideas and solutions. Departures from particular technical and scoping requirements of this standard by the use of other designs and technologies are encouraged when the alternatives will provide substantially equivalent or greater access to the usability of the element and /or facility. Design departures from information provided and referenced in this standard should be carefully assessed to determine the validity of the application and may require review by a committee appointed for this purpose by the Region of Niagara. Dimensions used in this standard are in metric units. Nearest imperial equivalent dimensions are in parentheses. For the purposes of this standard, words and terms in italics have their meanings defined in Section 2.0. The Region of Niagara encourages all users of this standard to provide feedback, as well as to make proposals for changes, additions and /or deletions. The Principles of UNIVERSAL DESIGN NC State University, The Center for Universal Design 1. EQUITABLE USE: The design is useful and marketable to people with diverse abilities. 2. FLEXIBILITY IN USE: The design accommodates a wide range of individual preferences and abilities. 3. SIMPLE AND INTUITIVE USE Use of the design is easy to understand, regardless of the user's experience, knowledge, language skills, or current concentration level. 4. PERCEPTIBLE INFORMATION: The design communicates necessary information effectively to the user, regardless of ambient conditions or the user's sensory abilities. 5. TOLERANCE FOR ERROR: The design minimizes hazards and the adverse consequences of accidental or unintended actions. 6. LOW PHYSICAL EFFORT: The design can be used efficiently and comfortably with a minimum of fatigue. 7. SIZE AND SPACE FOR APPROACH AND USE: Appropriate size and space are provided for approach, reach, manipulation and use, regardless of user's body position, size, posture or mobility.

Proposed Apartment Development PD- 2006 -95 Doug Darbyson Director That Council not approve the Official Plan and Zoning By -law amendment application to permit the development of two 8- storey apartment dwellings, with a total of 196 units, on the subject land. Napev Construction Limited has requested amendments to the Official Plan and Zoning By -law for a 1.05 hectare (2.6 acre) parcel of land on the south side of Marineland Parkway, west of Stanley Avenue, as shown on Schedule 1. The amendments are requested to permit the development of two 8- storey apartment dwellings, with a total of 196 dwelling units. Refer to Schedule 2 for further detail. The lands are currently designated Tourist Commercial in the City's Official Plan. The Tourist Commercial policies would allow a variety of tourist commercial uses to be developed on the lands up to a height of four storeys. Residential development may also be permitted if the land is surplus to tourist commercial needs. The applicant has requested special site specific policies be added to the Official Plan to permit the height and density of the development. The subject lands are currently zoned Tourist Commercial which permits a variety of tourist commercial uses up to four storeys in height. The zoning of the land is requested to be changed to a site specific Residential Apartment 5F (R5F) zone to permit the proposed development. Working Together to Serve Our Community Clerks Finance Human Resources Information Systems Legal Planning Development November 20, 2006 2 PD- 2006 -95 The applicant originally proposed two 12- storey buildings containing a total of 150 units and presented the proposal at a neighbourhood meeting in August 2005. Concerns about the height of the project were raised by neighbouring residents. The applicant then lowered the height of the buildings to eight storeys, but increased the total number of units to 196 by increasing the massing of the buildings. The revised proposal initially included the use of the abutting City -owned Con Rail drain lands to the west. The drain was proposed to be enclosed and surface parking provided over it. This component was recently abandoned, and the applicant now proposes to provide most of the required parking in an underground parking garage. Surrounding Land Uses The site is surrounded mainly by vacant land. Portions of the abutting land to the south are wooded and intended to be developed in the future as part of the Thundering Waters Golf Course. The Drummond Park Village subdivision exists to the southwest which is comprised of semi- detached and single detached dwellings. Circulation Comments Regional Municipality of Niagara The Provincial Policy Statement (PPS) typically requires a comprehensive review for the conversion of employment lands. It has been verbally confirmed that the PPS's focus is on lands intended for manufacturing rather than for tourist commercial. The site is located at the southerly limit of the Fallsview tourist district and new tourist commercial development has been concentrated in the Central Tourist area. The City should consider if this subdistrict should be designated for residential purposes. Access points will need modification and further sight line investigation prior to site plan approval. A road widening along a portion of Marineland Parkway and a left turn into the development will be required. Parks, Recreation Culture Cash -in -lieu of parkland will be required for this development. Such amenities as an outdoor gathering area, play area, recreational trail and increased landscaping should all be considered. Municipal Works The developer should consider a watermain loop system for this development. The City could consider cost sharing on such a system to facilitate future development on adjacent lands. November 20, 2006 3 PD- 2006 -95 Sidewalks should be incorporated into the plan and constructed by the developer. Alternatively, the City could construct sidewalks at the developer's cost. Planning Analysis It may be desirable to have traffic directed eastward from the development to Stanley Avenue. Building By -law Services All required building permits to be obtained prior to construction. City and Regional development charges are applicable and payable at building permit stage. Fire Services No objections. Planning staff does not object to the development of the land for residential purposes provided the ensuing project is harmonious with surrounding development in terms of scale, height and density. However, Planning staff is of the opinion that the development is not in keeping with the building heights and densities contemplated by the Official Plan and is subsequently out of character with the surrounding low density residential neighbourhood. The requested Official Plan amendment does not meet the prerequisite criteria for an Official Plan change, as follows: 1. Conformity of the Proposal to the General Objectives of the Tourist Commercial and Residential Policies The land is designated Tourist Commercial and is part of the Fallsview Tourist Subdistrict. As this part of the subdistrict abuts low density residential dwellings, building heights are restricted to four storeys. Although the land is intended primarily for tourist commercial uses, multiple family residential developments may also be permitted if the lands are in excess of demand for tourist commercial purposes. The applicant's planner has provided an opinion that this land is surplus to tourist commercial needs and that the land would be more appropriately developed for residential purposes. The planner notes that the focus of new tourist commercial development has mainly been in the form of high -rise developments around the Fallsview Casino and the isolated nature of the area surrounding the subject land is claimed to impede its development for tourist commercial purposes. The planner stresses the primary concern should be compatibility with surrounding low density residential uses and claims a multiple family residential complex would be more compatible with surrounding developments than a tourist commercial development. He also claims that a higher intensity of use of this property is supported by the Provincial Policy Statement, given the site's location on an arterial road. Planning staff agrees with some of these arguments. The area has not been developed for tourist commercial purposes as intended. In addition, the Tourist Commercial designated land to the west of the site permits a non tourist commercial use (nursing home). Although November 20, 2006 4 PD- 2006 -95 the adjacent Thundering Waters Golf Course may spur development in this area, recent trends with other golf course developments indicate that this new development is just as likely to be in the form of residential development as commercial development. However, Planning staff disagrees that the development is compatible with surrounding development, and therefore, does not support the view that it meets the general objectives of the Official Plan nor the City's Residential and Tourist Commercial land use policies. To ensure the development is compatible with surrounding residential development, residential developments in tourist commercial areas are to be considered under the density and height policies that are contained in the Residential policies. These policies are not met as follows: This site is near a Minor Commercial district. Sites in close proximity to Minor Commercial districts are to have a maximum height of six storeys and a density of 100 units per hectare (40 units per acre). The development, at eight storeys and a density of 186 units per hectare (75 units per acre), is significantly larger in scale and nearly twice the density of a residential development contemplated by the Official Plan for this area. The density of the development also exceeds the density contemplated by the Residential policies for anywhere in the City (outside of the Central Business District), which is capped at 125 units per hectare. The surrounding residential development is not fully protected from the impacts of this development. Although no shadowing of surrounding residential developments is anticipated, semi detached and single- detached residences to the west and south will be overlooked by the development and subject to a loss of privacy. In addition, the number of units being sought in each of the apartment dwellings results in buildings that are greater in scale and massing than what is contemplated for this area. Appropriateness of the Site for the Proposed Use, Especially in Relation to Other Sites or Areas of the City Given its location on an arterial road near a Minor Commercial district, the site is appropriate for an apartment dwelling use. However, developments of the height and density proposed are more appropriately directed to the downtown or the centre of the tourist district, where high densities can support surrounding businesses and where surrounding commercial uses will not be impacted by the scale of the development. 3. Compatibility of the Proposal with Adjacent Land Use Designations Land use compatibility is typically achieved through the gradation in building heights and densities and the use of adequate separation distance between high -rise and low -rise buildings. Implementing adequate setbacks to nearby streets and generous landscaping will further mitigate the impacts of high density residential uses: Some of the building setbacks and standards sought indicate that this proposal represents an overdevelopment of the site. The underground parking garage extends to the front property line and close to the rear yard line, impeding the planting of substantial landscaping along November 20, 2006 5 PD- 2006 -95 the street line and in the westerly side yard. Side and rear yard setbacks for apartments are typically one -half the building height, particularly where such buildings are adjacent to low density residential. For a building this height, the resulting setbacks would be around 15 metres (50 feet), however, the westerly side and rear yard setbacks for the proposed development are only 1.5 metres (5 feet) and 11 metres (36 feet) respectively. Although the Con Rail drain provides some separation from the nearby low density residences, the lack of a westerly side yard means there is no opportunity to plant substantial landscaping to screen these residences. Buildings around the subject land are generally restricted to a height of four storeys or less. Despite current Official Plan policies, two sites to the northeast, located between the Hydro corridor and Stanley Avenue, have grandfathered approvals for 7 -8 storey hotels. Building heights in the range of 4 -6 storeys would assist in creating a gradation of building heights between the residences to the southwest and the approved hotels. A modest reduction in height, coupled with a reduction in building mass, would bring the development closer to what is contemplated by the Official Plan. 4. Availability of Adequate Municipal Services and Facilities for the Proposed Use and its Impact on the Transportation System The applicant has submitted servicing and traffic studies that indicate current infrastructure can generally support the development. However, additional infrastructure, including a watermain loop to service the site and nearby lands and a left turn lane into the development, should be provided. Should Council support the application, a hold symbol should be implemented through the site specific zoning. This symbol would be lifted once the necessary agreements to provide the infrastructure have been executed. 5. Need for the Proposed Use and the Extent to which Existing Areas of the City Designated for the Proposed Use are Developed or Available for Development Although the latest City statistics identify an inventory of vacant residential lands well in excess of the amount required under Provincial legislation to be available for development, Planning staff does not object to the use of the land for multiple family residential purposes. A residential development of an appropriate scale will complement the surrounding neighbourhood and provide additional housing choices for residents. In addition, nearby tourist areas which see a substantial number oftourists only at certain times ofthe year could be enhanced by the presence of year round residents. CONCLUSION: 1. The application to amend the Official Plan and the Zoning By -law to permit two 8- storey apartment buildings with a total of 196 units cannot be supported for the following reasons: It does not conform with the general objectives of the Official Plan, in particular, that residential areas are not protected from the adverse impacts of high -rise, high density development. The height and density of the development would be out of character with the surrounding residential uses. November 20, 2006 6 PD- 2006 -95 Prepared by: Andrew Bryce Planner 2 Approved by: AB:gd Attach. A development of this density would be better located in the Central Business District to support downtown businesses. 2. The applicant should consider scaling back the development to be compatible with surrounding residential area. Recommended by: Doug Darbyson Director of Planning Development 4' i r T.

Burden Director Re: F- 2006 -54 General Insurance Report RECOMMENDATION: That Council approve the 2007 Comprehensive Insurance Program from Frank Cowan Co. Ltd. at an annual premium of $862,159 (2006 $825,205) plus applicable taxes. The City's comprehensive insurance program is reviewed annually for the purpose of updating and revising the type and amount of insurance. The cost of the annual premiums for 2007 represents an increase of approximately 4.5% or $36,954 (taxes extra). The annual review showed several reasons why the annual premium has increased. Frank Cowan Company has advised staff that the Canadian Property Casualty Insurance marketplace continues to be susceptible to losses that have outpaced premiums coupled with reduced investment income. Increased storm and natural catastrophe activity in 2006 will put upward pressure on rates. Insurance markets continue to focus on specific types of business risks. This has reduced the number of specialty insurers who are willing to underwrite risks such as public entity. As a result, all insurance purchasers are affected. The public sector has experienced significant losses in the past few years. Some of these losses have been driven by landmark cases, but overall, frequency and severity of claims have increased dramatically. As well, the overall cost of claims, which takes into account escalating court awards, claims administration expenses and the ever increasing replacement costs of assets, has continued to rise. In addition, insurers and re- insurers have become extremely cautious about public entity liability exposures. Insurers are now experiencing the negative impact of claims from public services and the impact they are having on the public entity insurance. Working Together to Serve Our Community Clerk's Finance Human Resources Information Systems Legal Planning Development November 20, 2006 2 F- 2006 -54 The terms and conditions for the 2007 Renewal will be subject to the following: Continued support of the insurers No major changes in the loss experience of the City's portfolio No major changes in the re- insurance market that would adversely affect the underlying insurance No major exposure changes prior to renewal Attached to this report is a summary of insurance coverages, and a premium comparison to 2006. As per Council's direction, Staff's risk management team continues to implement a full risk management program. The program focuses on minimizing the risk of loss by reviewing existing standards of maintenance and security; identifying and evaluating new risks and developing effective measures to minimize these risks, developing a hazard reporting system, reviewing insurance claims, and reviewing the adequacy of insurance coverages.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY By resolution dated April 12, 2006, the City of St. Catharines has requested that the Region review and update the tax deferral eligibility criteria for low- income seniors and low- income disabled homeowners' property tax. (see Appendix A). Criteria were discussed at the June 16, 2006 Area Treasurers meeting resulting in the development of the attached draft By -law (see Appendix B) for which staff now seek approval. 1 FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS If the proposed By -law is adopted, the financial implication to the Region will be the interest carrying charges, estimated to be approximately $4,200 annually, for the deferred amount of taxes. BACKGROUND Property tax legislation passed in 1998 required upper and single tier municipalities to provide tax relief for assessment related tax increases for low- income seniors and low income disabled persons owning and occupying property in the residential class. Relief was to be provided in years of general reassessment. Legislation defined assessment related tax increases, however the definition of low- income seniors and low income disabled persons was to be determined by the municipality. Municipalities also had the responsibility of determining the amount of tax relief (all or part of the assessment related tax increase) and the type of relief (refund or deferral). The definition for tax increase has since been amended in Legislation to include all increases, budgetary or assessment related. Under the legislation, the maximum amount of tax relief to be provided is the difference between the taxes levied on the property in the year preceding a reassessment and the taxes levied in the year of a reassessment. REPORT Administration The Area Municipalities are responsible for administering the tax relief program for low income seniors and low income disabled persons as they are responsible for billing and collecting property taxes. Applications for tax relief are accepted and processed by the Area Municipality in which the individual resides. The Region has developed an application form that will be available on the Region's web -site and to each Area Municipality (see Appendix C). Current Program 2 CSD 132 -2006 October 11, 2006 The current tax deferral program has been in effect since 1998 and includes the following key elements: persons eligible for tax relief are low income seniors and low income disabled persons owning and occupying property in the residential property class; low income seniors are persons who are 65 years of age or older and in receipt of the monthly Guaranteed Income Supplement (GIS) program (or pending) and low income disabled individuals are persons who are in receipt of an increment paid under the Ontario Disability Support Program Act; tax relief is in the form of a deferral and no interest is charged on the deferred amounts; minimum amounts to be deferred are $200; CSD 132 -2006 October 11, 2006 the deferral period is 3 years; the applicants' property taxes must be current at the time of application; and if an eligible person for which tax relief has been granted ceases to be an eligible person, all tax relief ceases and the total amount deferred becomes a debt payable to the applicable Area Municipality. Options for Tax Relief Section 319 of the Municipal Act provides two basic tax relief options for upper and single tier municipalities. In each case the option may be applied to all or a portion of the tax increase: 1) refund /cancel all or a portion of the tax increase; or 2) defer all or a portion of the tax increase; Option 1 involves a refund or cancellation of the property tax increase. With a refund or cancellation, the Region and the Area Municipalities forego tax revenue equal to the amount of the refund or cancellation on an annual basis until such time as the property is sold or the applicant ceases to be eligible. This lost revenue would be recorded as a tax write -off. Option 2 involves a deferral of the property tax increase. Tax relief in the form of a deferral recognizes that eligible individuals own homes with a net asset value. When the home is eventually sold, the deferred taxes can be paid from the proceeds of the sale. The impact on the Region and Area Municipalities from deferred taxes is minimal as the impact is essentially limited to foregone interest. Recommended Approach The recommended approach is to provide tax relief based on a tax deferral of a portion of the tax increase. This option mirrors the tax relief currently provided but permits eligible homeowners to seek a deferral based on the total year over year tax increase, not just the assessment related tax change. Low income seniors and low- income disabled persons will benefit from the expanded definition of tax increase as the deferrals are now calculated on a larger amount. It is also recommended that a threshold deferral amount of $200 continue to apply. With this limit, low income seniors and low income disabled persons would be responsible for the first $200 of their property tax increase. The amount of the tax increase exceeding $200 would be the amount deferred. Interest will not be charged as it is prohibited by legislation. Cancellations or refunds (Option 1) are not recommended as they do not recognize the equity that homeowners have in their homes or the homeowner's ability to pay once the property is sold. In addition, the following limitations and criteria have been added to the program roughly based on suggestions outlined in the City of St. Catharines April 12, 2006 letter (Appendix A). 3 Accumulated amount of deferral cannot exceed 50% of the property's Current Value Assessment (CVA). Applicant must have owned a residential property within the Region for a period of 1 or more years. Documentation is required for proof of age, and receipt of Guaranteed Income Supplement (GIS) or Ontario Disability Support Program (ODSP). Together with the continued deferral option all but two of the criteria contained in the City of St. Catharines resolution have been satisfied. The recommendation for registering a lien on the property was determined not to be necessary as outstanding property taxes take priority. Also it is not recommend that a CVA threshold be adopted as CVA may not be an accurate indication of a homeowner's equity or ability to pay. Financial Impact The impact of tax relief as proposed in this report is dependant on the number of eligible applicants and the amount of their tax increases in excess of the $200 threshold amount. Analysis has indicated that approximately 90,000 residential properties have a tax increase greater than 3 Assuming 20% of these homes are owned and occupied by seniors and disabled persons, the number of potential properties would be 18,000. If it is further assumed that 25% of these homeowners qualify as low- income, the number of potential applicants could be 4,500. With a threshold amount of $200 and the Regional portion of the tax bill at 50 the maximum amount of deferred taxes for the Region would be approximately $98,000 per year. The actual impact to the Region would be the carrying charges of this amount. Based on the Region's current portfolio rate of 4.25 the annual cost to the Region is estimated to be $4,200.

Burden Director That effective January 1, 2007, the reimbursable mileage rate payable to City employees who use their personal automobiles on City business, be established at $0.50 per kilometre for the first 5,000 kilometres driven and $0.44 per km for all kilometres above 5,000. This report presents the annual review of the reimbursable rate per kilometre for employees who use their personal vehicles on behalf of the City. The annual review usually follows the Region of Niagara's practice of determining the reimbursable rate. During 2006, the Regional Council approved the adoption of the 2006 two -tier reimbursable mileage rate maximums as provided by the Department of Finance and enforced by the Canada Revenue Agency. This significant change resulted from three considerations: 1. To ensure compliance to the Canada Revenue Agency's employee taxable benefit rules. 2. The previous method of determining the reimbursable rate depended upon the Canadian Association of Automobiles' procedure for the valuation of relevant costs. CAA has discontinued the provision of this information. 3. The use of the two -tier rate provided by the Canada Revenue Agency effectively transfers the control over rate setting to the federal level of government. Working Together to Serve Our Community Clerks Finance Human Resources Information Systems Legal Planning Development November 20, 2006 2 F- 2006 -56 For 2007, the rates are based on the 2006 two -tier reimbursable mileage rate maximums as provided by the Department of Finance and enforced by the Canada Revenue Agency. Staff will continue to monitor the bulletins from the Canada Revenue Agency as they may impact the reimbursable mileage rate. Recommended by: Respectfully submitted: K. E.

At the request of City Council, staff reviewed the City's procedure regarding the payment of interest to water account holders who are required to maintain a deposit as a condition of their water account standing. Currently, the City does not pay interest on accounts with deposits, nor is there any provision in the 2006 Utility Budget for this expenditure. As Council is aware, the City's Water Bylaw authorizes the operating procedures and processes used to provide water and sewer services to residents. The annual Utility budget establishes the operating costs, the contributions to capital for distribution system improvements and establishes the annual rates and fees required from account holders to fund the system. In addition, Niagara Falls Hydro acts as the City's agent for billing, collection and maintenance of water accounts. City staff works with Hydro staff to maintain operating processes which support the application of the water bylaw. Niagara Falls Hydro's staff is implementing an overhaul to their information systems used to bill, collect and maintain hydro, water and sewer accounts. The required work to improve and upgrade the system is in its final stages of completion. It is expected that the new system will be operational in the first quarter of 2007. Working Together to Serve Our Community Clerks Finance Human Resources Information Systems Legal Planning Development November 20, 2006 2 F- 2006 -58 Staff recommends that the decision to pay water account holders an annual interest benefit on the security deposit held as a condition of their account standing, be referred to the 2007 Utility Budget. The readiness of the system and the costs associated with this decision will be identified for Council's consideration at that time. Prepared by: T. Harnson Manager of Finance Recommended by: K. E.

PD- 2006 -90 Doug Darbyson Director RECOMMENDATION: 1) That Council approve the request and pass the by -law included in tonight's agenda to designate Block 111, Registered Plan 59M -92, as exempt from Part Lot Control. That the applicant be required to notify the City when the separate deeds have been registered. BACKGROUND: The applicant has submitted a request to remove this property along Dorchester Road, north of Calaguiro Drive, from Part Lot Control (see attached letters and Schedule 1). This process enables the division of lots or blocks within a registered plan of subdivision. The general intent of removing Part Lot Control is for the minor redesign of subdivision lots or the separation of semi detached or on- street townhouse units. The subject land is within the second phase of the Calaguiro Estates plan of subdivision. Construction has proceeded in this section of the plan since mid -2002 when a new subdivision agreement and CN Rail requirements were addressed. Council has previously approved Part Lot Control applications to allow the relotting of portions of the subdivision. This minor redesign included surplus City parkland and closed portions of the original alignment of Dominic Crescent that were sold to the applicant. As part of these revisions, a proposed Regional pumping station was enlarged and relocated to the northwest corner of the plan. The subject land (Block 111) was the original location for the pumping station. Therefore, the land was surplus to the. Region and sold to the applicant to be combined with the two abutting building lots. The attached extract from Reference Plan 59R-1-1579 (Schedule 2) shows the proposed configuration of Block 111. The block was acquired from the Region as one parcel rather than in two separate parts. Approval of a Part Lot Working Together to Serve Our Community Clerks Finance Human Resources Information Systems Legal Planning Development November 20, 2006 2 PD- 2000 -90 Control by -law is required so that a property line can be created to allow the parcels to be divided and merged with the abutting Lots 1 2 in the subdivision. The applicant's solicitor has confirmed that the respective lots and part blocks will then be consolidated as combined parcels for all future transactions. The land is appropriately zoned Residential Single Family 1 A Density (R 1 A) through site specific Zoning By -law No. 2001 -134. CONCLUSION: The removal of Part Lot Control will permit the division of the block to create two small triangular parcels. These portions will be combined with the abutting lots as originally intended when the land was purchased. The use ofthis Planning Act mechanism is appropriate. The applicant should advise the City when the land transactions described in this report have been completed. The by -law to designate the lands as exempt from Part Lot Control is included in tonight's Council agenda.

BACKGROUND: PD- 2006 -94 Doug Darbyson Director In October, members of the Planning and Development Division attended a CHMC workshop on the outlook for Ontario's economy and the housing market. The workshop was attended by both the public and private sector, the latter primarily by home builders and financial institutions. CMHC presented its forecast information for 2007, with a roundtable discussion taking place after on issues such as the current labour market and demographic trends, the impact of the Greenbelt, the location of future development and the effect of urbanization on the type of housing being built. Recently, there have been several threats to Ontario's economic performance: high energy prices, the high Canadian dollar, a sluggish manufacturing sector, and a slowing of the United States housing market. However, manufacturers and exporters have mitigated the effects of the high Canadian dollar though investment in new technologies to become more efficient and productive. Consumer income and spending have also increased. As a result, the Ontario economy has remained resilient and is predicted to grow modestly in 2007 at a rate of 2.7 slightly behind the national economic growth of 3 CMHC predicts that certain sectors will either outperform or underperform next year, specifically: Outperform: oil and gas, machinery manufacturing, mineral extraction, computer and electronics, transport and warehousing and domestic service sectors. Underperform: motor and vehicle parts, forestry, textiles and apparel, tourism, furniture and aerospace equipment. Working Together to Serve Our Community Clerks Finance Human Resources Information Systems Legal Planning Development November 20, 2006 2 PD- 2006 -94 Of note in the above is the underperformance of the tourist sector. Tourism Niagara representatives commented at the workshop that the decline in U.S. travel to Canada due to security issues and the future passport requirements have had, and will continue to have, a negative impact on tourism. Niagara Regional Housing Market CMHC presented information on three different aspects of the housing market: resale market conditions, demand factors (demographic and economic) and new construction. The resale market is forecasted to slow down into 2007 mainly due to the rapid increase in prices. However, prices will begin to slow next year, not expecting to rise by more than 3%. On top of this, demand will be affected by a stagnant job market and that mortgage carrying costs are rising. Counterbalancing these factors, Niagara continues to experience a migration of people into the region and more affluent people are purchasing new houses which is resulting in a strong demand for housing. This demand is reflected in an increase in popularity of multiple housing, specifically townhouses. New construction of multiples is forecasted to increase in 2007, however, starts for single detached dwellings are slated to drop which will result in an overall decrease in housing starts for the year. Roundtable Discussion During the roundtable discussion, a number of conditions were discussed that centred around the supply and demand of housing in general. Labour Market: The region currently has a median income lower than the Ontario median income, being comparable to Thunder Bay. This is due to the loss of manufacturing where wages are traditionally higher than the service sector. The construction sector is endeavouring to attract workers as the average age of this labour force is increasing rapidly. Currently the construction sector is a major employer in the region. Demographics: Niagara is losing people in the 19 -30 year old age group at a rate faster than the national average. Other areas outside of the GTAH area, such as Kitchener Waterloo, are also losing young people. In Niagara, there is an influx of baby- boomers and retirees who are have incomes that are above the median for the region and are driving up the cost of housing. A significant number of baby- boomers work outside of the region. Transportation: Transportation is seen as a significant hurdle to the future development of the region. Improvements such as the widening of the QEW, extending GO Transit (GO buses are to be brought into Niagara on an experimental basis in 2007) and the future Niagara -GTA corridor will improve the situation and may stem the outflow of young people. A number of attendees spoke ofthe advantages that an intra region transit system would have in transporting people who do not have a car to work places in different areas of the region. Affordable Housing: The escalation of housing prices is resulting in an increasing demand for affordable housing. Regional Housing reported that there is a current waiting List of 4,300 households for affordable housing. New houses are out of reach for people of the income level that require affordable housing and houses that are affordable usually require substantial renovations, the cost of which make the ultimate cost in the range of $200,000.00. Smaller lots will not solve the affordability problem, however, smaller multiple -unit housing types such as quadruplexes may. November 20, 2006 3 PD- 2006 -94 Potential Impacts on Niagara Falls Niagara Falls is already beginning to experience a certain number of the impacts noted above. Council is aware of two significant proposals to redesignate Industrial lands to Residential lands in anticipation of future residential growth. Inquiries have been received recently regarding the development of affordable housing units. Anecdotal evidence supports the influx of baby- boomers and retirees, which is also supported by the proposals for "lifestyle communities" such as the Grand Niagara development. Council's recent authorization of a growth management Official Plan review is well timed. The growth management strategy that will be produced during this review will provide Council with a plan that will set the course for the future growth of the city. Staff will continue to monitor the housing market and any impacts experienced due to trends identified by CMHC. Manager of Policy Planning Recommended by: Doug Darbyson Director of Planning Development Approved by: The Greenbelt: The Greenbelt Plan has effectively pushed development north of Barrie and into Niagara's southern tier. This has resulted in GTA home builders moving into these non- traditional areas and land prices rising. (Residential land prices in Stoney Creek are currently $300,000/acre.) General opinion is that the modest growth rates predicted for the Niagara area in the Province's Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe are far below what is anticipated. Future Employment: Given the influx ofbaby boomers and retirees, several attendees were of the opinion that future employment will be in the service sector that provides for that segment of the population, specifically health and clinical services. This would result in an increase in the median wage for the region and would assist in stemming the outflow of young people. avenda Executive Director of Corporate Services JB:tc Attach.

BACKGROUND: Proposal The applicant proposes to register a Vacant Land Condominium over the 1.214 hectare (3 acre) site to create vacant units (e.g. lots) for the future construction of 22 townhouse dwelling units and four semi detached units all with access from a private driveway. The property is located on the west side of Kalar Road, at the intersection of the future roadways Forestview Boulevard and Desanka Avenue (see Schedule 1). The land is described as Block 276 within the Deerfield Estates Subdivision. The proposed condominium layout is illustrated on Schedule 2. The application for plan of condominium subdivision will permit the individual ownership of each unit of land in the development with the private driveway, visitor parking and some landscaped areas shared by the condominium corporation. Working Together to Serve Our Community Clerks Finance Human Resources Information Systems Legal Planning Development November 20, 2006 2 PD- 2006 -96 Planning Process This development has proceeded through various planning approvals and consultation with the public. The site is a planned multiple residential block within the Deerfield Estates subdivision that received draft approval in February 2006 and was recently registered. Zoning By -law No. 2006 -56 was passed by Council on March 20, 2006 to zone the land Residential Low Density, Grouped Multiple Dwellings (R4) with special provisions. The Committee of Adjustment approved a variance application (A- 38/2006) for the property on October 24, 2006. This approval allowed reductions to certain yard and dwelling unit separation requirements, a minor increase in lot coverage and recognized the semi detached dwellings within the development. These changes to the zoning reflect the submitted plans. The project has been designed for compatibility with surrounding land uses and contributes to the mix of available housing types in the area. The vacant land condominium process is a relatively new method of dividing property into "units" of land. When the plan is registered, the units are then sold much like lots or blocks in a typical plan of subdivision and building permits can be issued. This process eliminates the need for site plan approval. Conditions of Approval Several issues related to the development of the land were addressed through the underlying subdivision plan (ie. parkland dedication, sidewalks). However, there are site specific issues for the condominium proposal. Approval of plans for servicing/grading, the private driveway and landscaping /fencing are required. The designation of a fire access route through the development, if required by Fire Services, is requested as a condition. The future construction of the dwellings will need to satisfy zoning regulations. The internal driveway design must meet Regional access requirements for waste collection vehicles or alternate private garbage pick -up is needed. CONCLUSION: The proposed Draft Plan of Vacant Land Condominium will allow the separate ownership of the land units for the construction of townhouse and semi detached dwellings in the future. The conditions of approval are listed in the Appendix. Prepared by: Richard Wilson Planner 2 Recommended by: Doug Darbyson Director of Planning Development RW:gd Attach.

The following Provincial and Regional planning comments are provided for your consideration. These lands are within the Urban Area Boundary for Niagara Falls according to the Regional Policy Plan. The subject property is a block of land in the Deerfield Estates plan of subdivision that was recently granted final approval by the City. Regional and Provincial interests for this subdivision will be fulfilled through the City's subdivision agreement with the developer. The City should ensure, however, that the Deerfield Estates plan and the subdivision agreement are registered prior to granting draft approval of the current vacant land condominium plan. The Region provides curbside waste collection for condominium developments in accordance with the Region's "Collection of Waste by Way of Entry on Private Property" policy (see attached copy). This requires, among other matters, that the internal driveway is designed to permit waste collection vehicles to safely turn around. Regional Public Works staff has advised that the proposed layout for the condominium development does not comply with Regional requirements. More specifically, the length of the driveway in front of Units 8 and 15 exceeds the Region's 15 metre limit for reversing waste collection vehicles. Therefore, the plan should be modified to meet the Region's waste collection policy. In conclusion, Regional Planning staff has no objection to draft approval of the draft plan of condominium from a Regional or Provincial planning perspective subject to the following condition: Yours truly, 2 1. That the draft plan of condominium be modified to comply with the Regional Municipality of Niagara's "Collection of Waste by Way of Entry on Private Property" Policy (PW 2.

Proposal: 25 -Unit Townhouse Development Location: Deerfield Estates Block 276 W/S of Kalar Road, south of Forestview Boulevard In the City of Niagara Falls City File: 26CD -11- 2006 -02 Our File: D.11.04.66.642640417 (ID #5491) Waste Collection on Private Property A R r ivrr j\ OCT 3 0 2006 Regional Municipality 1. of Niagara PLANTING Regional Niagara Public Works Department has reviewed the above referenced Circulation of Draft Plan of Vacant Land Condominium and provide the following comments: We cannot support this site layout, as submitted. Since June 1, 2000 the Region has provided on -site household waste collection to private sites that provide a drive through road system (i.e. collection vehicles are not required to reverse in order to exit the site). New developments that are not large enough to provide a drive through street type collection may provide a cul-de -sac at the end of the roadway; again to avoid a backing -up manoeuvre. I n April of 2002, the Region also agreed to consider a dedicated 'T' turnaround area for restricted infill properties, where a through roadway or cul-de -sac could not be provided. In our opinion, the subject site layout does not comply with any of the options allowed, noting that a review of the proposed layout indicates that Units #8 and #15 are not able to receive waste collection, as the driveway is longer than the standard 1 5-metres for reversing waste collection vehicles. It has been our experience that purchasers of homes in these sites expect that their waste will be collected by the Region and quickly request that the Region does so, even though the developer has indicated that private collection will be the method of collection. This leaves the Region with the unfavourable situation of having to deal with the affected residents after the fact and the potential to subsequently compromise the Region's policy. Therefore, we would encourage the municipality to discuss this matter with the developer in hopes that an alternate layout can be achieved that would permit all units to receive municipal waste .collection or alternately private collection service. We trust that the foregoing Regional comments will be appropriately incorporated into any agreement entered into by the City with this applicant. i j St evens, C.E.T.

It is one of the rare cases where Council is required by law to respect the order of the O.M.B. and pass the by- law (i.e., you can not vote against the passage of the by -law). The O.M.B. decision is included for your information and Assistant City Solicitor, Ken Beaman offered this background: The lands that are the subject of this by -law are located in Chippawa and are illustrated in Schedule lof the by -law. The existing zoning of this land which was put in place by council in 1996, permitted a selection of residential land uses. The Applicant sought a change in the permitted residential uses. At the same time, the applicant sought certain minor revisions to the approved plan of sub division of these lands. The matter came before council on March 20, 2006. Staff recommended approval of the by -law and Plan of Sub- division. Council voted against the staff recommendation and the Applicant appealed to the Ontario Municipal Board. The board heard two days of evidence in September of 2006 and on October 26, 2006 issued an order in favour of the applicant. Both the by -law and the plan of sub division were approved. In making this order, the OMB has ordered that the city enact the attached by -law. Council is required by law to respect this order.

Ronald K. Webb DECISION DELIVERED BY J. FLINT AND ORDER OF THE BOARD Queensway Chippawa Properties Inc. (the Company) owns a vacant 43.336 hectare property in the former Township of Chippawa, now the City of Niagara Falls (the City). In 1996 a zoning by -law and draft plan of subdivision were approved for the north portion of the property to permit a development of 136 single- detached, 62 semi- detached and 18 residential townhouse units. Nothing has been built to date. The Company would now like to revise the plan of subdivision, and develop the remaining land in a similar fashion. It is already zoned in anticipation of such development subject to a holding provision. To these ends, the Company filed a revised plan of subdivision and a new plan of subdivision for the south portion. The Company also applied for a zoning by -law amendment for the entire property. The City of Nia applications and the Company appealed. ra a s re PL060322 use e 2 PL060322 The subject property is located at the northwest corner of Sodom Road and Willick Road in the southeast region of the urban area of Niagara Falls. To the north is a subdivision of 53 single- detached dwellings developed prior to 1996 by the same company; to the east along Sodom Road there are scattered residential Tots, an arena, a restaurant and cash crop farmland. There are residential Tots on the south side of Willick Road. On the west, the subject property abuts the rear yards of residential properties on Lyons Creek Parkway, a "dead end" road that runs south from Lyons Creek Road. Lyons Creek flows between these roads. It is a navigable body of water leading to the Welland River. The subject property contains at least three notable elements: a creek known locally as Hunter's Drain is located near the eastern boundary and across the north part of the property. There is a small heritage cemetery near the mid -point of the Willick Road frontage and a significant woodlot at the southwest corner of the property. Except for the creek bed, the terrain is generally flat. The subject property is designated Residential and Environmental Protection Area in the City of Niagara Falls Official Plan and Residential Development Area in the Chippawa Community Secondary Plan. The property is zoned in part Residential Mixed (R3), Residential Mixed Holding (R3 -H), Hazard .Land (HL), Open Space (OS) and Neighbourhood Commercial (NC). Mr. Mark D. Yarranton, a qualified land use planner, testified in support of the application. The two participants, Mr. Jim Mancuso and Mr. David Jackman were opposed. The City of Niagara, while party to the hearing, called no witnesses. Mr. Yarranton told the Board that the 53 -unit subdivision of single- detached dwellings on land immediately north of the subject property is Phase 1 a three phased development planned by the Company. The 1996 plan for the north portion of the subject property is Phase II. It contains wide shallow lots to be developed with one and one -half storey dwelling units. The revised plan changes the configuration of the lots. They are now narrower and deeper in order to accommodate single- detached, semi- detached and townhouse dwellings up to two storeys in height. Phase III, that includes most of the balance of the property, provides for a mix of housing types and contains a centrally located park and storm water management pond, a pedestrian link to Lyons Creek Parkway, and network of local and collector roads that that are coordinated with 3 PL060322 those of Phase II. There is also an emergency -only access to the subdivision from the north end of Lyons Creek Parkway. The heritage cemetery, the woodlot and the park and storm water management area are proposed to be deeded to the City and zoned Open Space (OS). The environmentally sensitive land in the vicinity of Hunter's Drain is to be zoned Environmental Protection Area (EPA), and the majority of the land will be developed with a mix of housing types. The Company will also develop a walking trail near the creek. A portion of land between the creek and Sodom Road in the southeast corner of the property, and another portion near the EPA zone at the northeast will not be developed at this time. Zoning for those parcels is Development Holding (DH). Mr. Yarranton noted that housing types within the subdivision have been located so that single- detached units are on the perimeter, semi detached units are located throughout, and townhouses are located internally near the park. Storm water flows are directed westward from the pond towards Lyons Creek through a channel beside the pedestrian walkway. Approximately one -third of the run off will be accommodated in this fashion. The remainder of the storm water run off will drain via Hunters Creek. Over the course of a day, Mr. Yarranton provided detailed planning evidence in support of the application. His testimony and opinion that the application conforms to the Provincial Policy Statement and both the Niagara Region and City of Niagara Falls Official Plans_ was unchallenged and uncontradicted. He noted in particular that the EPA zone is consistent with Conservation Authority standards and, except for a pedestrian trail, is to be left in a naturalized state. All agencies support the application. However the City Engineering Department reports that at this time there is sewer capacity for only 129 new residential units. The Company plans to build them at the north end of the property. Development of the remaining units is subject to a holding provision. Mr. Yarranton also reviewed the proposed plan of subdivision against the fourteen criteria of section 51(24) of the Planning Act that regulates land divisions. In his opinion, the application subject to the revised conditions entered as Exhibit 9, meets all relevant criteria and represents good planning. 4 PL060322 Both participants live on Lyons Creek Parkway and their properties back onto the proposed Phase 111 plan. Their primary concern is water management, followed closely by fears that their road will be closed to Lyons Creek Road. Their residential lots are wider than those proposed to be located behind them and they do not like the prospects of having two or three lots directly behind them, each containing a two- storey dwelling. They prefer the new houses be set further away from their houses and /or a berm or green belt established as a buffer. They also regret the loss of the natural ambience and wild life, and worry about the effects of development on the woodlot. However, storm water management is the most pressing issue for them because several property owners on Lyons Creek Parkway. have experienced flooding and damage to their homes. The participants maintained that the existing drainage system on their street is inadequate for the amount of storm water that is generated and their sump pumps are running twenty -four hours a day. There is strong objection to any development that will' exacerbate this situation. The Board finds it understandable that there should be an outcry from residents who are faced with a development where a walkway into their quiet "dead end" residential community could be used by motorized vehicles, where their local road connection to the main highway is closed, the nearby woodlot that they enjoy is threatened, and their back yard privacy is reduced; and, worst of all, there is "no guarantee" that their existing year -round flooding and drainage problems will not be made worse. The Board finds, however, that during the course of the hearing these issues were addressed. Solutions were presented and positively received. For example, it was the evidence of Mr. Yarranton that the Site Plan will include mechanisms to prevent motorized vehicles from using the walkway and also insure that the widest lots in the subdivision back onto the Lyons Creek Parkway properties. The closure of Lyons Creek Parkway is not part of the application. The woodlot, that is highly valued for its quality and ambience, will be deeded to the City for maintenance and protection. Only a nature trail designed to Conservation Authority standards will be permitted in the EPA zone. Moreover, the number of residential units built at any one time will be determined by sewer capacity; and the entire project is subject to Site Plan Control where traffic safety is addressed. 5 PL060322 The Board finds that the serious and sometimes dangerous flooding drainage situation on Lyons Creek Parkway g and y t hat was reported by residents, already exists and cannot be attributed to the proposed subdivision. Prior to 9 water management development, the City requires engineering studies and r plans for the subdivision to insure that storm water will be managed on site and will not add experienced by Lyons Creek Parkway dd to the y residents. The Board notes that the City has acknowledged that there is a flooding problem in the Lyons Creek neighbourhood and has commissioned a study, Y Parkway y, that includes citizen input, to find a solution and ways to implement it. This news was welcomed by the artici ants. P p As reviewed by Mr. Yarranton, the applicable planning instruments development in Ontario municipalities g nts governing p ies rnclude the Provincial Policy Statement, Provincial Places to Grow legislation and Official Plans. The Provincial Policy Statement mandates the efficient use of land, services and infrastructure; the the Places to Grow policies direct residential intensification to settlement areas in lands for specific uses, in this protect agricultural land; and Official Plans designate la t his s case, residential and environmental protection. Based on the unchallenged professional opinion of the planner, the Board finds that this application g three. PP conforms to all The Board also finds that the concerns raised by the participants can be addressed by Site Plan Control, the Zoning By -law and, in the case of flooding on Lyons Parkway, by the City in response to an independent study. g yons The Board, therefore, allows the appeal. The City of Niagara Falls is directed to amend By -law 96 -242 as set out in Attachment 1. The Draft Plan of Subdivision hereby as Attachment 2 is approved subject to the conditions entered as Y hereby attached as Attachment 3. s Exhibit 9 and The Board so Orders. "J. Flint" J.

(TED) SALCI, MAYOR First Reading: Second Reading: Third Reading: November 20, 2006 November 20, 2006 November 20, 2006 THIS AGREEMENT made as of the 1st day of November, 2006. BETWEEN: 1.0 The Project: THE CORPORATION OF THE CITY OF NIAGARA FALLS and CANADIAN PACIFIC RAILWAY and STUDIO V ARCHITECTURE, PLLC IlayE 1 Hereinafter called the "City" Hereinafter called "CP" Hereinafter called "Studio V" The City and CP wish to retain the services of Studio V to assist them in finding creative solutions to add value to an underutilized asset and integrate the former CP Railway Bridge into the Niagara Falls Downtown Strategic Implementation Plan, hereinafter referred to as the "project" the particulars of which are: 1.1 The Bridge and Right of Way: The former CP Railway Bridge traverses the Niagara River gorge and crosses the international boundary line between Canada and the United States with approximately half of the structure located in Canada, in the City of Niagara Falls, Ontario, the other half of the structure is located in the United States, in the City of Niagara Falls, New York. The railway right of way is a linear band of land that varies in width and extends from Queen Street, Niagara Falls, Ontario, Canada to the center of the bridge from the Canadian side. The study will also take into account the existing additional bridges on the Canadian side located at: Zimmerman Avenue, Park Street, Cataract Avenue and River Road. 1.2 The Nature of the Project: Hays 2 Studio V will undertake a feasibility study for the adaptive re -use of the existing former railway bridge, in the City of Niagara Falls, Ontario, Canada. The study will look at potential new uses and planning solutions for the structure, adding new structures on top of, around, under, or adjacent to the existing railway bridge and will illustrate how they will impact the bridge, the surrounding land and the Niagara Falls Downtown Strategic Implementation Plan. The purpose of this study will not be to explore the economic implications of creating new commercial or vehicular border crossings, rather, the goal will be to find a use or uses that are sufficiently viable, economically attractive and compelling so that a suitable developer can be found for the bridge, with the ultimate goal being a successful sale of the bridge, its development and integration into the revitalization of the Niagara Falls, Ontario Downtown. 1.3 Project Assumptions: For the purposes of this study, it will be assumed that, 1.3.1 All or nearly all of the proposed development and re -use of the bridge will be focused on the Canadian side. 1.3.2 Some form of barrier will remain in place to ensure border security that is equivalent to, or more extensive than, the current barrier at the center of the bridge. 1.3.3 The proposals for the bridge will incorporate or co- ordinate some portion of the adjacent former railway right of way, integrating the bridge into the surrounding urban fabric with areas adjacent to the bridge considered as an additional part of the study. 1.3.4 As per the approved Downtown Strategic Implementation Plan, that the bridge at Zimmerman Avenue may be removed, the bridge at Park Street may be retained, the road at Cataract Avenue may be removed (although the existing bridge may remain in place) and the bridge at River Road that leads onto the main structure of the bridge over the gorge will remain in place. 1.3.5 Adaptive re -use of the existing structure, including additional static loads from new structures and public access, may be reasonable and that this additional loading may even be possible given the degradation of the existing structure over time with little maintenance, given the significantly higher dynamic loads which it was originally designed to take. 2.0 Scope of Work: 2.1 Phase 1- Concepts: An assumption based upon preliminary discussions during the SIP between Walker Group and engineers that specialize in the re -use of former industrial structures, which would need to be reviewed and validated by a qualified and licensed engineer following this feasibility study, based on appropriate uses and concepts developed for the bridge. 2.1.1 Phase I shall begin, fourteen (14) days after, the date that this Agreement has been executed by all of the parties. 2.1.2 Studio V shall, within twenty -one (21) days of Phase I beginning, provide to the City and CP the following deliverables: 2.1.2.1 research into adaptive re -use of former railway and other industrial structures; 2.1.2.2 three (3) re -use proposals, each to contain: 2.1.2.2.a 2.1.2.2.b 2.1.2.2.c Hays 3 concept images, illustrating existing or proposed adaptive re -use of industrial structures and other suitable examples; basic plans, sections and digital three dimensional models from existing conditions (approximate unless a full survey of the existing structure is available from CP) for the three concept images; and six (6) copies of Programming Concepts showing approximate total areas and a brief description of potential program uses. 2.1.3 On receipt of Phase I deliverables, all three parties shall review and discuss the re -use proposals prior to moving forward with Phase 11 of this Agreement. This meeting shall be held either in Niagara Falls, Ontario, Canada or by way of a Conference Call at a mutually agreed upon time. At the conclusion of this meeting a determination will be made as to whether or not the City and CP will require Studio V to continue to Phase II of the Project. fIayc 4 2.1.4 In the event that a decision is made to go no further with the project, this agreement will come to an end, with the Fees as set out in paragraph 3.1 below only applying in addition to any outstanding reimbursable expenses to date. 2.1.5 In the event that a decision is made to go further with this project, Phase II obligations shall apply. 2.2 Phase II Design Development: 2.2.1 Phase II shall begin, fourteen (14) days after, the date that a meeting has been held as set out in Paragraph 2.1.3 above and a decision has been made to go forward with Phase II of this Project. 2.2.2 Studio V shall, within twenty -eight (28) days of Phase 11 beginning, further develop the three (3) re -use proposals and provide to the City and CP with respect to each one revised: 3.0 Compensation Payment: 2.2.2.1 Programming Concepts six (6) copies; 2.2.2.2 Concept Plans six (6) copies; 2.2.2.3 Concept Sections six (6) copies; 2.2.2.4 Concept Perspectives six (6) copies; and 2.2.2.5 Planning Diagrams and text to illustrate how the three (3) re -use proposals will be integrated into the Niagara Falls Downtown Strategic Implementation Plan. 3.1 The City and CP agree to pay to Studio V a fixed fee of thirteen thousand, six hundred and fifty dollars, payable in United States currency, ($13,650.00 U.S. Funds) upon an on -time completion of Phase 1 of this Agreement, which fee is exclusive of any required taxes and reimbursable expenses. 3.2 In the event that a decision is made to proceed to Phase 11 of the Project, the City and CP agree to pay to Studio V a further fixed fee of thirteen thousand, six hundred and fifty dollars, payable in United States currency, ($13,650.00 U.S. Funds) upon an on -time completion of Phase 11 of this Agreement, which fee is exclusive of any required taxes and reimbursable expenses. flays 5 3.3 The City and CP agree to provide Studio V with a retainer in the amount of four thousand, ninety -five dollars, payable in United States currency, ($4,095.00 U.S. Funds) representing thirty percent (30 of the fixed fee for each phase of the agreement. The retainer to be paid to Studio V following the execution of this agreement, and to be deducted from the last invoice due to Studio V in conjunction with this Agreement. 3.4 Studio V shall invoice the City at completion of Phase I with payment due within fifteen (15) days after the date of the invoice. In the event that the project proceeds to Phase II, Studio V shall invoice the City at completion of Phase II with payment due within fifteen (15) days after the date of the invoice. 4.0 Reimbursable Expenses; 4.1 In addition to the fixed fee compensation referred to above, Studio V shall be entitled to be reimbursed for reasonable and actual out -of- pocket expenses, subject to the prior approval of the City, in connection with the project, at Studio V's cost and without mark up.
