BACKGROUND: Niagara South Condominium Corporation No. 11 has requested an amendment to Zoning By -law No. 79 -200 for a 705 square metre (7,585 square foot) parcel of land known as 5789 Kitchener Street, as shown on Schedule 1. The amendment is requested to permit the existing dwelling to be used for offices for physicians. Refer to Schedule 2 for the details of the development. The land is currently zoned Residential Single Family and Two Family (R2). The land is requested to be rezoned to a site specific General Commercial (GC) zone to permit the entire detached dwelling on the land to be used for offices. Surrounding Land Uses The Greater Niagara General Hospital lies to the south of the subject site while Highway #420 lies to the north. An office building is located to the west, while several single detached dwellings lie to the east. Circulation Comments 4310 Queen Street, P0, Box 1023, Niagara Falls, ON, Canada L2E 6X5 905 -356 -7521 www.niagarafalls.ca Niag ara ails CANADA Regional Municipality of Niagara No concerns from a Provincial or Regional planning perspective. Working Together to Serve Our Community Corporate Services Department Planning Development January 22, 2007 2 PD- 2007 -01 Municipal Works The subject property is serviced by a combined sewer system that reaches capacity during storm events. Therefore, runoff from the proposed parking area will need to be minimized, and will be looked at further through the site plan process. Planning Review A 1.5 metre (5 foot) wide road widening will be required along the frontage of the property. Parks, Recreation and Culture The landscape design will be reviewed at the site plan application stage. One tree is requested to be planted in the boulevard to the satisfaction of the City's Forestry Section. Fire Services No objection. Fire safety concerns can be addressed through the normal site plan and building permit processes. Building and By -law Services All required building permits to be obtained prior to commencement of construction. 1. The proposal complies with the intent and purpose of the Official Plan. The land is designated Residential in the Official Plan. Although Residentially designated lands are primarily intended for dwellings, a special policy allows the development of uses on the subject land that are ancillary to the Greater Niagara General Hospital, provided they are sensitive to the surrounding residential development. The proposed physician's office conforms to the Official Plan and this special policy as follows: The existing dwelling and most of the front yard landscaping will be retained, maintaining the residential character of the property and consistent with other existing residences on this street. Sufficient parking will be provided in the rear yard to service the office use. The proposed medical offices will be ancillary in nature and scale with the Greater Niagara General Hospital. The residence to the east of the subject land will be partially buffered from the new parking area by the existing wood fence. January 22, 2007 3 PD- 2007 -01 2. The requested zoning to a site specific (GC) zone is appropriate. Rezoning the property to a site specific (GC) zone with a special provision to limit the use for offices will ensure the property is used in a manner that complies with the Official Plan and is compatible to the surrounding residential development. To further ensure compatibility with adjacent dwellings, the building size should be restricted to the existing dwelling and the landscaping shown in front of the building on Schedule 2 should be protected. 3. Site Plan control will be applicable. Because of the conversion of the dwelling to commercial uses and the associated increase in the useability of the building, a site plan application and agreement will be required. The site plan process will address such matters as road widening, access, grading and drainage and landscaping. As there are no storm sewers in this area, stormwater management will be reviewed during the site plan process to ensure there are no adverse impacts on Kitchener Street or Highway 420. CONCLUSION: The requested amendment to change the zone to General Commercial (GC) to permit the existing dwelling to be used as offices for physicians can be supported for the following reasons: 1. The use complies with the Official Plan as it is in an area where uses ancillary to the Greater Niagara General Hospital, such as physicians' offices, are permitted. 2. The existing dwelling and front yard landscaping will be maintained in a manner that protects the residential character of the property and is complementary to adjacent residences.

Recognize Two Existing Dwelling Units RECOMMENDATION: 1. That Council approve the Zoning By -law amendment to recognize an existing second dwelling unit on the second floor; and 2. 41.8tall4ed. That the applicant work with City staff on landscaping. BACKGROUND: Niag ara ails C A N A D A Angelo Marino has requested an amendment to Zoning By -law No. 79 -200 for a 1,393 square metre (15,000 square feet) parcel of land known as 5056 Montrose Road, as shown on Schedule 1. In 2006, Council passed zoning by -laws to recognize one of the two existing dwelling units and to temporarily permit a retail store on the ground floor. The applicant is now requesting the second dwelling unit to be recognized. Schedule 2 shows details of the existing development. The land is currently zoned Light Industrial -736 (LI -736), which permits a dwelling unit, and Light Industrial -737 (LI -737), which permits a ground floor retail store for a maximum of three years. The LI -736 zone is requested to be amended to recognize the second dwelling unit. The two second floor dwelling units existed for some time contrary to the Zoning By -law until last year when one of the dwelling units was recognized as a caretaker unit by the passage of the above noted zoning -by -law. When Council passed this by -law, the second dwelling unit was to be r d. However, this second dwelling unit has not been removed and the appli wishes it to be recognized. 4310 Queen Street, P.O. Box 1023, Niagara Falls, ON, Canada L2E 6X5 905 -356 -7521 www.niagarafalls.ca Working Together to Serve Our Community Corporate Services Department Planning Development January 22, 2007 2 PD- 2007 -05 Surrounding Land Uses The property is located within the Northwest Industrial District. To the north and east of the property, there are a number of large industrial operations, including Niagara Block and the Regional Recycling Facility. To the south are some remnant residential uses mixed in with some small -scale commercial and Tight industrial operations. To the west, across Montrose Road, are the residential subdivisions known as Ascot Woods. A vacant parcel immediately to the southwest is being developed for a neighbourhood plaza (Shoppers Drug Mart). Circulation Comments Regional Municipality of Niagara Municipal Works Building By -law Services Planning Analysis The Provincial Policy Statement and the Ministry of the Environment's land use compatibility guidelines provide for the separation of residential use from industrial operations. However, as the apartment dwelling is existing, the proposed zone change will not increase potential adverse impacts. Regional Planning staff has no concerns from a Regional or Provincial planning perspective. No objections from a Municipal servicing or traffic perspective. All required building permits to be obtained prior to commencement of construction. Although a dwelling unit would not normally be supported in an industrial area due to potential land use conflicts, this second dwelling unit has existed for some time without any apparent conflicts with the surrounding industrial uses and can be considered under the non complying use policies of the Official Plan. The following is Planning staffs analysis of the application. 1. The second dwelling unit is in keeping with the policies of the Official Plan regarding non complying uses. The land is designated Industrial in the Official Plan. Dwelling units are not permitted on Industrially designated lands unless they are caretaker residential units accessory to a permitted industrial or commercial use, like the first dwelling unit approved by Council on this property. January 22, 2007 3 PD- 2007 -05 However, the Official Plan contains provisions for pre- existing non complying uses which have existed for some time and which have achieved a degree of stability. Recognition of such uses is not to negatively impact or impose a danger to abutting complying uses, contribute to the deterioration of the neighbourhood or interfere with desirable complying development in adjacent areas. Although the Region did not oppose the approval of one dwelling unit, they did express some reservations, noting its proximity to active industrial operations. The Region has reexamined its position on the second dwelling unit relative to Provincial Policy and has revised its comments to acknowledge that the existing second dwelling unit will not increase potential impacts. The proposal complies with the City's non complying policies as follows: 1. The apartment has existed for a period of time without any apparent land use conflicts with surrounding industrial uses, and a degree of stability between the uses has developed. Recognition of the additional residence will not increase any potential adverse impacts with respect to existing and future industrial operations. 2. The two dwelling units have achieved a degree of compatibility with the residential and small -scale commercial uses to the south of the property, and with the neighbourhood on the west side of Montrose Road. 3. Recognizing the second dwelling units will unlikely undermine the neighbourhood nor interfere with the development desired in the area. 2. The requested zoning is appropriate. The LI -736 zoning of the property permits one second floor dwelling unit in combination with a main floor permitted use. This zoning will be amended to recognize the second dwelling unit. To ensure the dwelling units are not expanded, the second dwelling unit will also be restricted to the second floor of the existing building. The LI -736 zoning recognizes the existing building configuration and landscaping on the property and no request was made to change these standards. However, during a recent site inspection, it was apparent the property does not meet the landscape requirements of the Zoning By -law. The LI -736 zoning requires 25% of the property be landscaped, including 15% of the required front yard to be landscaped. These requirements are based on the landscaped area presented by the applicant on Schedule 2. However, the landscape strip in the front yard labelled Area A does not exist and landscaping behind the building labelled Area B has now been paved. The landscaping is important to provide amenity space for the dwelling units and to improve the appearance of the property. This landscaping is to be reinstated to meet the current by -law requirements. The applicant should voluntarily enter into a site plan agreement with the City to ensure these matters are addressed or remove the pavement and install curbs and grass prior to the passage of the amending by -law for the second dwelling unit. January 22, 2007 4 PD- 2007 -05 CONCLUSION: 1. The requested Zoning By -law amendment to recognize a second existing dwelling unit within the building on the land can be supported for the following reasons: AB:cb Attach. The request complies with Official Plan policies with respect to non- Recommended by: complying uses. 2. To ensure existing non compliance matters with respect to landscaping are resolved, a site plan agreement should be executed or landscaping installed prior to passage of the amending by -law. Respectfully submitted: The dwelling unit has existed for some time without any apparent land use conflicts with surrounding industrial uses and recognition of it will not increase any potential adverse impacts.

The property was previously rezoned in 2005 to permit a convenience store and to recognize one of the two existing apartment units. The following Provincial and Regional comments are provided for your consideration. The property is located within the Urban Area Boundary for Niagara Falls according to the Regional Policy Plan. In addition the site is situated on the edge of an established industrial district and designated as Industrial in the City's Official Plan. Policy 1.7.1 (e) of the Provincial Policy Statement and land use compatibility guidelines of the Ministry of the Environment (Guideline D -6) provide for the separation of sensitive residential uses from industrial operations. In this instance the apartment dwelling already exists and will not result in a change in use that could increase any potential adverse effects. In this regard, Regional Planning staff has no concerns with this application from a Provincial or Regional planning perspective. Please send notice of City Council's decision on this application.

David Pounder Limited Recognition and Expansion of Place of Worship RECOMMENDATION: 1. That Council approve the Zoning By -law amendment to recognize an existing place of worship and to permit a building expansion, subject to the regulations outlined in this report; and 2. That the concerns raised about on street parking be referred to staff for further review. BACKGROUND: Niag ara alls CANADA Niagara Hindu Samaj has requested an amendment to Zoning By -law No. 79 -200 for a 0.21 hectare (0.5 acre) parcel of land known as 5284 Second Avenue, as shown on Schedule 1. The existing building on the land (formerly the Loyal Order of the Moose Lodge) was approved for its current use as a place of worship by the Committee of Adjustment in 1999. The applicant is now requesting a place of worship to be formally recognized in the Zoning By -law. A building addition, consisting of a ground floor place of assembly and a second floor dwelling unit accessory to the place of worship, is also proposed. Refer to Schedule 2 for the details of the development. The land is currently zoned Residential Single Family and Two Family (R2). The land is requested to be rezoned to a site specific Institutional (I) zone to recognize the place of worship and building configuration and to permit the addition. Surrounding Land Uses 4310 Queen Street, P.O. Box 1023, Niagara Falls, ON, Canada L2E 6X5 905- 356 -7521 www.niagarafalls.ca The property is surrounde use (the Masonic Tem my single detached dwellings. Another institutional to the east. Working Together to Serve Our Community Corporate Services Department Planning Development January 22, 2007 2 PD- 2007 -02 Circulation Comments Regional Municipality of Niagara Parks, Recreation and Culture Municipal Works Regional Planning staff has no concerns with this application from a Provincial and Regional planning perspective. No concerns. A landscape plan will be reviewed at the time of site plan application. There are no parking or traffic concerns with the application. The absence of a storm sewer in this area necessitates a further review of storm water management at the site plan stage. Legal Services The property is subject to a site plan agreement registered on title, reflecting the existing development. Fire Services No objections. Further review will occur at the site plan application and building permit processes. Building and By -law Services All required building permits to be obtained prior to commencement of construction. Public On tonight's agenda is a letter from the owners of 5270 Second Avenue who are concerned that the addition will overshadow their backyard and noted that parking for the place of worship sometimes spills out onto local streets. Planning Review Institutional uses have existed on the property for a considerable period of time and have achieved a degree of compatibility with surrounding uses. Recognizing the use of the property and permitting a minor addition will not adversely affect the way the property has functioned for some time. The following is a summary of Planning staff's analysis of the application: 1. The proposal complies with the intent and the purpose of the Official Plan. The land is designated Residential in the Official Plan. Residential dwelling units are to be the predominant use. A variety of ancillary uses, including places of worship, are permitted provided these uses are compatible with surrounding residential development. The proposal conforms to the Official Plan as follows: January 22, 2007 3 PD- 2007 -02 The existing place of worship is relatively small in scale. Similar to other places of worship and institutional uses in residential areas, it has achieved a degree of compatibility with the surrounding neighbourhood. The surrounding road network is sufficient to accommodate the modest amount of traffic expected from this change. The arterial road system can be readily accessed from the site without excessive infiltration through the residential community. Provided the small addition is set back from the westerly side lot line, as recommended later in the report, it is not expected to negatively impact surrounding residences. 2. The requested zoning amendment is appropriate. The Institutional (I) zone is appropriate but permits a wide range of institutional and community uses. Some of these other uses may impact on the surrounding neighbourhood or generate excessive traffic for local roads. To ensure the use is compatible with the surrounding neighbourhood and that the addition does not overshadow neighbouring properties, the following measures are recommended to be added to the site specific zoning by -law: Restrict the use to a place of worship and one ancillary dwelling unit. Require the west side yard setback of 5 metres (16 feet) rather than the requested 1.8 metres (6 feet). Institutional buildings typically are required to have a side yard setback of 5 metres. The reduced setback was being sought to correspond with the existing building's westerly setback. By maintaining the provision of a typical setback, this should alleviate concerns about overshadowing impacts on abutting properties. In addition, increasing this setback would break up the building's massing along its west side. The second floor dwelling unit is to be ancillary to the place of worship and will be limited to a residence for the religious leader and family. Control the height of the proposed roof top architectural features. These features, similar to church spires, are currently exempt from any height controls in the Zoning By -law. Due to the building's proximity to nearby dwellings, these rooftop features should be restricted to the height illustrated on Schedule 3, being 13.5 metres (44 feet). The required parking for a place of worship is one space per five persons. A total of 26 spaces is currently available on -site which is sufficient to meet zoning requirements for the expected occupancy of 100 persons. However, parking demands for the use occasionally spill out onto a local street. Residents appear to be affected because Second Avenue is a narrow street that cannot support on- street parking without affecting visibility. This matter is best referred to the Traffic and Parking Services staff so that measures involving parking matters can be considered on days when overflow parking is experienced. The existing use and building were allowed through change of use and minor variances through the Committee of Adjustment. The amending by -law will recognize these variances. January 22, 2007 4 PD- 2007 -02 CONCLUSION: 1. The requested amendment can be supported for the following reasons: the use complies with the intent of the Official Plan with respect to ancillary uses in residential areas; the use is not expected to generate excessive traffic and adversely affect surrounding streets; and Respectfully submitted: AB:cb Attach. controlling the use of the building, the building occupancy and the building configuration in the amending by -law, and increasing the westerly side yard setback of the addition, will ensure the proposal is compatible with the surrounding residential neighbourhood. 2. It is recommended that concerns with respect to on- street parking be referred to the Community Services Committee for further consideration.

Hopefully by January 22 I can have another letter on behalf of my neighbours as well. I am referring to City File: AM- 36/2006. After speaking with Andrew Bryce, I fully understand the plans the applicant is proposing and I would like you to take into consideration my views regarding this subject. Currently this place of worship is large enough; a dwelling unit could be added if necessary but does not have to be two storeys high and consist of additional place of assembly. On their days of worship, when they have a full house they are forced to park on the streets. The parking lot they have is not large enough for their needs. I am worried that after all the construction, once this place has expanded our street will still be full with parked cars on the side. I think that instead of making the building bigger, they should make their parking lot bigger as they do have enough land for that. If they do build the addition then they will expand and their parking will not be large enough again. There's already enough traffic on their days, and parking will always be a problem. Our house for example has two driveways and we're almost right at the corner of the bend so it's already hard enough to see vehicles when someone is pulling out of the driveway, but when there's cars parked an each sides of you it makes it even more difficult. This was always a quiet neighbourhood until this place turned into a place of worship. It is not an everyday thing so we are used to the noise and we don't mind it so much but this is a residential area and making it bigger is not better for us and the residents. Especially the kids and the elderly, and that's what is mostly around here. It is not a Hindu Society. Across the road from us there are 9 kids, including 5 less than 6 years of age. And these are the closest houses to this building. I have a 14 month old boy and yes the last thing I want is a two storey building going up right behind our fence. In my opinion being approved for the towers is more then enough. The construction around here has been crazy. If the building is too small then I guess it is not suitable, especially since it's not a residential place of worship. Another thing I would like to bring up is how this change will affect my family and our house. We have all been understanding and fair but this new addition will have a drastic effect on us and our house. My father has bought this house about 10 years ago and everyday he is working on it and he should be done renovating within the next few years. For the past 3 years one of his projects was the sun room, he has just finished the outside and his goal is to have it completed inside by I would say April or May. If this addition goes u• it will not only RECEIVED JAN 8 2007 PLANNING 8 DEVELOPMENT (e s ruin my mother's garden but it will defeat the purpose of my fathers work and the time that he has put in to all this. Shading is a major concern of ours. Andrew Bryce did mention that they could maybe change their plans a little but that really won't do much. Now the wall itself I believe will decrease the property value and my parents are going to get more information regarding that by the time of the Meeting. I have just had my father put in a door with a big window in it and a window beside the door. Last summer he has renovated my sun deck. The sun deck, the sun room and all new large windows are located on the back of the house where the future wall will go up. The addition will block the sun, the plans my family and I have had for the last ten years and the time my father has spent working on this house will all be a waste. When we purchased this house we bought it knowing there won't be anything on the other side of the fence, especially a two storey commercial building. This will affect all the neighbours and it is not in the resident's interest for this place to expand. Thank you for your time and consideration.

And that this comprehensive report serves as the guide for staff in setting priorities and strategic directions for making recommendations to Council concerning the services of Parks, Recreation Culture Division over the next ten (10) years. BACKGROUND: The project commenced in May 2005 with the closing of a Request for Proposal to the Strategic Plan for the Provision of Parks, Recreation, Arts Culture. The consulting firm of dmA Planning and Management Services was selected to complete the study. A Steering Committee with representatives from staff, various committees and the public worked with the consulting firm. Public input was also a critical component of the Strategic Plan and included community forums, community survey, and user groups interviews and surveys, as well as key informant interviews. The consulting firm will present the final report and their recommendations to Council on January 22, 2007. The purpose of the Strategic Plan is to serve as an instrument to strengthen and focus Niagara Falls' parks, recreation and cultural services delivery, and enhance the City's capacity to provide for these services now and into the future. 4310 Queen Street, P.U.

Also, Council approval may be required for an event requiring specific exemptions under the City's Noise By -law. Such exemptions are necessary if a proposed outdoor event is scheduled past 9:00 p.m. (If not in the exempted area as per By -law 2004 -105).

Applications for use of City facilities can be obtained from the Parks, Recreation Culture office. Previously, requests for Special Occasion Permits on municipal property were approved by Council. The reports have traditionally appeared on the Consent Agenda. Staff could not remember the last time in which Council raised a concern about the issuance of such permission; therefore, it is suggested that these requests be processed internally, which will also allow the requests to be processed more expeditiously during the summer months.

Each of our clients has been served with an Order pursuant to the provisions of the Property Standards By -law (the "By -law requiring the removal of basement living quarters based on the following provisions of the By -law: "cellar" means that portion of a building which has more than 50% of its height from finished floor to finished ceiling, below grade, and is below the first story" "habitable room" means "any floor area or a room in a dwelling unit used or intended to be used for living, sleeping, cooking, or eating purposes, including, but not limited to, a den, recreation room, fancily room, library room, sewing room or enclosed sun room" "non habitable room" means "any room in a dwelling or dwelling unit other than a habitable room, and includes any cellar, bathroom, toilet room, laundry, pantry, lobby, corridor, stairway, closet, crawl space, boiler room or other space for service and maintenance of the dwelling, or for public use, or for access to and vertical travel between story" in essence, these definitions in the By -law operate not only to prohibit basement apartments, but also living quarters, recreation rooms and even kitchens in dwellings in the City that are found in a lower level that has more than 50% of its height from finished floor to finished ceiling below grade.

Lawrence Dec 8. 2006 11:51AI 9056885814 Page 2 o.0403 P. 3/4 We do not believe that it is the intent ()idle City of Niagara Falls to impose a blanket prohibition on all living rooms in lower levels that are 50% below grade. While suclx prohibitions against habitable rooms in cellars may have made some sense years and years ago, newer home construction, living patterns and modem building and fire code requirements have rendered such a prohibition almost meaningless. Further, as you are aware, this Province is urging all municipalities to intensify in terms of residential uses. Consider, for example, the provisions of Bill 51 which allows municipalities to establish second unit policies as of right without appeal to the Ontario Municipal Board, It is also very interesting to note that the properties listed above are zoned Residential R2 and R3 permitting multi residential uses. Further, these basement residential units were used or occupied on November 16, 1995 and in our view are protected by Bill 120 (the Residents Right Act) There is no doubt that there are numerous kitchens, bedrooms, living quarters, rec rooms, etc. in dwellings throughout the City of Niagara Falls. We believe it is discriminatory to require the removal of living space in our clients' dwellings while allowing similar living accommodations throughout the municipality. For all of these reasons, our clients have appealed the Building Department's Orders to the Property Standards Committee. These appeals are scheduled to be held on December 13 We believe it would be appropriate for Council to address this anomaly in its Property Standards By -law. In our view, this can be done in either of two ways. 1, Council could grant the Committee of Adjustment power to grant a minor variance from the provisions of the By -law, Council has this power by virtue of Section 45(3) of the Planning Act which states; "A council that has constituted a committee of adjustment made by by -law empower the committee of adjustment to grant minor variances from the provisions of any by -law of the municipality that implements an official plan, or from such by -laws of the municipality as are specified and that implement an official plan, and when a committee of adjustment is so empowered, subsection 45(1) applies with necessary modifications," 2. Council could review and modernize the provisions in the By-law that deal with habitable /non habitable rooms below grade through amendment. The purpose of this correspondence is to ask that we be made a deputation at the next regularly scheduled meeting of Council to address this issue. Since it is likely that our request will be referred back to staff for a report, we would have no objection to having that matter set to a date which would allow adequate time for staff review of this issue, Dec. 8. 2006 11:52AM 9056885814 Page 3 By copy of this letter, we are providing notice to the Property Standards Committee that, at the December 13th hearing, we will be seeking to adjourn these matters in order to allow Council to address what is a very far reaching issue for all inhabitants of the municipality, If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact the undersigned or Mr. Richardson.

BACKGROUND: Niag ara alts CANADA At the December 11, 2006 Council meeting, a discussion occurred whether Niagara Falls should replace the term "alderman" for the more commonly used term "councillor A decision was deferred so that all members could be in attendance. Since the Council meeting, there has been discussion in the press in the form of editorials (see attached) and letters to the editor. Clearly, the term alderman is historic. Its origins, like most parliamentary customs in Canada, derive from the United Kingdom. An alderman is known as a municipal representative next in ranking to the mayor. There is some discussion as to whether the term is gender specific (i.e., not gender neutral). As the editorial from the Niagara Falls Review indicates, two dictionary definitions fail to mention gender, yet the historical origin of the word comes from a day when women were not part of the nobility and, therefore, did not hold municipal office. There has been much debate in the last number of years whether it is politically correct to call a female a title that has the suffix, man. Nonetheless, some female professionals prefer the more traditional nomenclature to the gender specific alternative. For example, many female thespians prefer to be known as an actor rather than the more gender specific, actress. Also, there has not been any discussion of changing the word "human" to something more gender neutral. Nonetheless, it does seem that most Ontario municipalities have switched to councillor, whether for gender reasons or not. The term, interestingly, only remains in the Niagara Region, with Niagara Falls, cr ,sby, Wainfleet and West Lincoln hanging onto the more traditional title. 4310 Queen Street, P.O. Box 1023, Niagara Falls, ON, Canada L2E 6X5 905 -356 -7521 www.niagarafalls.ca Working Together to Serve Our Community Corporate Services Department Clerks January 22, 2007 At the last Council meeting it was pointed out that the use of alderman distinguishes the lower -tier municipal representatives from the upper -tier Regional councillors. Although this is not the historical reason for retaining the aldermanic title it does provide a distinction. A couple of alternate and slang definitions of the word alderman that have been attached may give some councillors some pause! CONCLUSION: The term alderman has historical origins dating back to at least 19 century England. There is not overwhelming evidence to indicate that the term is gender specific, however, clearly other municipalities are more comfortable with the neutral, councillor. From a staff perspective, it does not make a difference.

Page..l of. .2 Should a woman on city council be referred to as alderman or aiderwoman? Is the perceived gender-neutral councillor preferable? Questions, questions, questions... It's worth dusting off the old -:and we mean` old office Oxford English Dictionary (circa 1968.:.at 2;51.5 pages we'd also hate to see the longer version) to see. what it has to say about the definition of alderman. Among the possibilities .are: A municipal officer ranking next to the mayor and still in the .city of London representing a ward: now, in_ England and Wales generally, a co -opted member of a borough or county council. In this light, it appears the term. alderman is actually gender neutral. However to be fair, another part of the definition refers to an alderman being a nobl.e or a man of high rank: In a later version (mid- 1970s) edition of the Concise Oxford Dictionary (1,566 pages for the record), the definition of alderman reads this way: Co -opted member of an English county or borough council, next in dignity to mayor. Fast- forward to a 2004 version of the Canadian Oxford Dictionary (1,815 pages for those who are still with us) and alderman is defined this way: A city councillor, esp. the elected representative of a district or ward No mention of gender. here, either. The reference to ward is intriguing given Niagara Falls city council is one of the few in the region elected at- large, rather than by award system, but that's an editorial for another time If there is one thing that is clear, the term alderman is steeped in tradition that takes us back to the roots of democracy in England. It's a discussion that provokes good arguments on both sides of the _issue, but given the proposed downtown redevelopment that could cost taxpayers $36 million or more, a recent bid to create a bigger arena for the city, and keeping taxes down, it's dear there are :bigger fish to fry. The title doesn't need to be changed. Councillor? Alderman? Does it really matter? After all, members of council will likely be called a lot worse at some point over the next four years. http:// www .niagarafallsreview.ca/webapp /sitepages /printable. asp ?paper= www.niagarafall... 12/14/2006 Alderman Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Page 1 of 2 Alderman From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia An alderman is a member of a municipal assembly or council in many jurisdictions. The title is derived from the Anglo -Saxon position of ealdorman, literally meaning "elder man," and was used by the chief nobles presiding over shires. Contents 1 United Kingdom 2 Republic of Ireland 3 Canada 4 United States 5 See also United Kingdom Although the term originated in England, it had no clear definition there until the 19th century, as each municipal corporation had its own constitution. It was used in England, Wales and Ireland, but was not used in Scotland. Under the Municipal Reform Act 1835, municipal borough corporations consisted of councillors and aldermen. Aldermen would be elected not by the electorate, but by the council (including the outgoing aldermen), for a term of six years, which allowed a party that narrowly lost an election to retain control by choosing aldermen. This was altered in 1910 not to allow outgoing aldermen to vote. Aldermen were finally abolished under the Local Government Act 1972 in 1974, surviving a few years later in Greater London. County councils also elected Aldermen, but not rural district and urban district councils. Councils can still create honorary aldermen, often a reward for long service. This award is used much more often in Northern Ireland than in England or Wales. Northern Ireland councils may additionally designate a quarter of their councillors as aldermen. In the Corporation of London, aldermen are elected for each ward, by the regular electorate, and until recently for life. To be a candidate to be Lord Mayor of London, it is necessary to be an alderman and to have been a sheriff. In Scotland, the office of "baillie" bore some similarities. Republic of Ireland In the Republic of Ireland the title was used by the first person elected in a multi -seat local government ward. The Local Government Act of 2001 abolished the title as part of a modernisation of local government, and as such none of the Councillors elected in the local elections of 2004 hold the title Alderman. Canada Historically, the term "alderman" was used for those persons elected to a municipal council to represent the wards. As women were increasingly elected to municipal office, the term "councillor" slowly replaced "alderman although there was some use of the term "alderperson Today, the title of "alderman" is rarely used, except in some cities in Alberta and Ontario as well as some smaller municipalities elsewhere in the country that (ail *ie 4 ft r,c a 1 rec w. http: /en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alderman 12/12/2006 alderman Wiktionary Page 1 of 1 alderman From Wiktionary English Noun alderman 1. a member of several municipal legislative bodies in a city or town 2.

At the December 11, 2006 meeting, Council passed a motion asking staff to prepare a report outlining the pros and cons of having the Chair of the Regional Municipality of Niagara elected at- large. The issue arose as a result of a recent Private Member's Bill sponsored by Erie Lincoln M.P.P., Tim Hudak. There are six (6) Regional municipalities in Ontario: Durham, Halton, Niagara, Peel, Waterloo and York. Of the six, two Regions, Halton and Waterloo, have direct election for their Regional Chair. In the other four Regions, the chair is not elected at -large but is first elected to Regional Council from a smaller lower -tier constituency before being selected by his or her peers on Regional Council. The Chair of Regional Council is elected within its own ranks. It should be noted that there has been discussion in Durham of direct election for their Regional Chair, with a number of lower -tier municipalities having a referendum question on their most recent municipal election ballot. In preparing for this report, the writer found a 1987 Municipal World article entitled "Should the Metro Chairman be Directly Elected Most of the same arguments, for and against, still apply regarding direct election of the Chair of an upper -tier municipality. The biggest argument for the direct election of a Regional Chair, and against the election from within or indirect election method of selecting the Regional Chair, is that the Chair cannot be held directly accountable by the electorate of the Region. With the indirect election, a candidate has run for a Regional Council seat in their lower -tier municipality only. They have not contested a seat Region -wide. 4310 Queen Street, P.O. Box 1023, Niagara Falls, ON, Canada 1.2E 6X5 905- 356 -7521 www.niagarafalls.ca ample, the electors of the eleven municipalities, other than opportunity to vote on the suitability of Peter Partington the Regional Chair. Working Together to Serve Our Community Corporate Services Department Clerks January 22, 2007 2 CD- 2007 -02 As a result, many view the indirect method of selecting a Regional Chair as undemocratic. In the Niagara Region thirty people (albeit, thirty duly elected people) make a decision that affects over 400,000 Niagara residents. The biggest argument against electing a Regional Chair at -large is the enormous expense of a Region -wide campaign. Using the election expense formula in the Municipal Elections Act, a candidate for a directly elected Regional Chair would be able to raise between $250,000 to $300,000 for their campaign. It is argued that the field of credible candidates becomes more restricted the more expensive the campaign. Only the most wealthy candidates would be able to raise sufficient funds to contest for the seat. Also, in a Regional Municipality with lower -tier municipalities of varying sizes, it is argued that it would be more difficult for a candidate from a smaller municipality to have the profile or financial backing to wage a credible campaign as that of a candidate in one of the larger municipalities. Despite the inherent logic in this argument, M.P.P. Hudak trumpets the fact that the Chair of Waterloo Region, Ken Seiling, is from the small community of Elmira (Woolwich). What Mr. Hudak fails to mention is that Mr. Seiling had been the Chair of Waterloo Region since 1985. He had established a profile well before direct election of the position took place. One of the benefits of the current method of choosing a Chair from within the ranks at Niagara Region has been an almost unwritten rule to rotate the chairmanship from around the Region; therefore, the Regional Chairs have been from various municipalities in the Region and there has been a trend to appoint a Chair from a smaller municipality after there has been a Chair from one of the larger municipalities. It is doubtful to say whether such a "rotation" would have taken place if the Chairs had been directly elected. One argument against the election from within the ranks method is that it is perceived to lead to divided loyalties. The candidate has contested the election to represent the interests of the lower -tier municipality, then when elected as chair, the councillor has to think in terms of the best interest of the entire Region. Unfortunately, there also still seems to be a lack of recognition or apathy toward Regional government. If the general public lacks an understanding of what Regional government does or who the players are, will they make an informed decision as to whom the Chair should be? On the other hand, directly elected Regional Chairs may enable the electorate to be more educated about the upper -tier level of municipal government. CONCLUSION: The pros and cons of direct election or election from within the ranks for Regional Chair have been outlined. Short of the Lieutenant Governor in Council making a regulation for the direct election of the Regional Chair, in Niagara the so- called triple majority would have to take place for a change to occur: the majority of Regional Council would have to be in favour. the majority of the lower -tier municipal councils in Niagara would have to be in favour. the total number of electors in the lower -tier municipalities in favour would have to constitute more than 50% of the electors in the Region. January 22, 2007 Respectfully submitted: 3 acDonald, Chief Administrative Officer CD- 2007 -02 Other than Mr. Hudak's Private Member's Bill, it is unknown whether there is a move afoot toward direct election of the Regional Chair in Niagara. If anything, there has been more discussion about certain lower -tier municipalities wanting to "leave" Regional government. Recommended by: City Clerk News Release Tim Hudak, MPP Page 1 of 1 asp; Close I Print November 23, 2006 Hudak Calls For Direct Election of Niagara's Regional Chair QUEEN'S PARK In the Legislature today, Erie Lincoln MPP Tim Hudak introduced a Private Member's Bill that, if passed, would ensure the Regional Chair of Niagara would be directly elected by Niagara taxpayers beginning with the next municipal election. Currently only 30 people (Regional Councillors and Niagara mayors) out of 426,550 Niagara residents have any direct say over who will be selected as the Regional Chair. "This legislation, if passed, will ensure that the Regional Chair will receive a mandate directly from the people who foot the bill Niagara taxpayers," said Hudak. "Direct election of the Chair will strengthen the Chair's hand in securing a better deal for Niagara from the Province or Federal Government." The direct election of the Regional Chair has been implemented successfully in two other regions of similar population to Niagara: Waterloo and Halton. Waterloo began electing their Regional Chair in 1997. Ken Seiling from the small community of Elmira, is the current Chair of the Waterloo Region. The people of Halton elected their first Regional Chair, Joyce Savoline in 2000. The Chair is currently held by Gary Carr. The Regional Chair is the head of a government that now spends some $740 million per year, a budget three times as much as those of St. Catharines, Niagara Falls and Welland combined. The Region is directly responsible for the delivery of big ticket items such as police, waste management, ambulance services, regional roads and public health. "A competitive region -wide race for Regional Chair will bring greater focus to regional issues and the Region's use of tax dollars," said Hudak. "Candidates for Regional Council will then take a more prominent stage to pronounce where they stand on regional issues and press their own plans for a better Region of Niagara." -30- Contact: Tim Hudak, MPP 416- 325 -8454 http:// www. timhudakmpp .com/news2.cfin ?newsid =522 1/7/2007 January 22, 2007 His Worship Mayor Ted Salci and Members of the Municipal Council City of Niagara Falls, Ontario Members: Re: F- 2007 -03 Property Tax Grant Low Income Seniors RECOMMENDATION: For the consideration of City Council. That Staff proceed with program. BACKGROUND: As the 2007 Budget deliberations are commencing, Finance staff is seeking direction in respect to 2007 grants. In previous years' budget discussions, Council had requested that Staff identify opportunities to provide relief to low- income seniors. Since 2004, the City has provided the Annual Low Income Seniors Water Rebate of $100 to qualified applicants, however, no program has existed for tax relief. In 2006, 625 applicants qualified for the $100 water rebate. An opportunity exists for Council to provide tax relief to qualified low- income seniors in the same manner as the existing water rebate. To maximize administrative efficiency, Staff recommends that if Council wishes to proceed with a rebate for tax relief, that the application process would be the same for both Low Income Senior Rebates.

BACKGROUND: Prior to 1993, the Committee of Adjustment was comprised of five (5) members inclusive of its chairman and all members were appointed by Council from the general public. In 1993, Council expanded the membership to seven (7) (5 public, 2 Council). In 2000, Council increased the Committee's compliment further to nine (9) members (5 Council and 4 public). In 2003, the Committee's complement reverted back to seven (7) members, (5 public, 2 Council). Three members constitute a quorum. Section 44 (1) of the Planning Act provides that Council may establish a Committee of Adjustment that is composed of such persons, not fewer than three, as Council considers advisable. Public appointees to the Committee serve for the term of the Council that appoints them (four years) whereas if members of Council are on the Committee, they are appointed annually. The Ontario Association of Committees of Adjustment has forwarded to the City a survey conducted in 1994 which indicates that the average Committee of Adjustment complement is five (5) members. Of the 147 municipalities surveyed, the majority, 77 was comprised of non elected appointees. Given the date of this survey, staff conducted a recent poll of all municipalities within the Niagara Region to determine how Committees of Adjustment operated locally. It was found that nine (9) of the 12 municipalities within the Region had a complement of five (5) members. Other than Niagara Falls, Port Colborne is the only other municipality in the Re n w th members of Council on the Committee of Adjustment. 4310 Queen Street, P0. Box 1023, Niagara Falls, ON, Canada L2E 6X5 905- 356 -7521 www.niagarafa lls.ca Working Together to Serve Our Community Corporate Services Department Planning Development January 22, 2007 2 PD- 2007 -03 Section 44(1) of the Planning Act provides the Council with the authority to appoint persons to the Committee of Adjustment to act on Council's behalf. Most Committees of Adjustment across Ontario do not include political appointees in order that the decision making responsibility is placed at arm's length from the local Council. The importance of delegated authority should be considered by Council in determining the degree of political representation required for the proper functioning of the next Committee of Adjustment. If Council wishes to be apprised of the Committee's actions, decisions and /or minutes of the Committee could be provided to the Council. It should be noted that prior to the appointment of Council members to the Committee of Adjustment, Planning staff would bring matters to the attention of Council in the event that the Committee was overextending its mandate or significantly deviating from Council's policies. Staff could continue this role should Council so desire. CONCLUSION: The streamlining of the Committee of Adjustment to five members would correspond with other decisions to reduce the size of public bodies in accordance with the good governance model and be in keeping with the size across most of Ontario. Sufficient safeguards can be implemented to ensure Council is kept informed of the Committee's activities. 1. Council consider the membership to the Committee of Adjustment be set at five (5) members; and 2. Council consider whether or not they wish to maintain the practice of appointing two (2) Council members to the Committee.

BRODERICK, Thi letter is in response to the request from you and John MacDonald to Q.C., L.S.M. p q y provide information to assist City Council and Niagara Falls Hydro in dealing W.A. AMADIO with the above noted subject. J.B. HOPKINS The Corporation of the City of Niagara Falls (the "City is the owner and G.A. KIRKHAM sole shareholder of Niagara Falls Hydro Holding Corporation "Holdco Holdco in turn is the owner and sole shareholder of two subsidiaries I.M. GILBERTI t Niagara Falls Hydro Inc. which is the core operating business and the holder R. B. BURNS of the Provincial electricity distribution licence "LDC and Niagara Falls Hydro Services Inc. which is the retail services business "Servco In M. DIGIROLAMO essence, therefore, Niagara Falls Hydro is a family of three companies, Holdco, LDC and Servco with by far the main business being the electrical COUNSEL: distribution business of LDC. E. P. LUSTIG D.F. MARINELLI (1945 1997) For all intents and purposes, the terms of office for the directors of the Boards of each of the three companies referred to above run concurrently with the term of City Council. It is therefore now appropriate for Council to consider appointments to the Boards. Strictly speaking, Council needs only to make the appointments to the Board of Holdco. Holdco is then responsible to make appointments to the Boards of LDC and Servco. As a practical matter, however, since the City in reality controls both LDC and Servco through its ownership of Holdco, it is desirable for Council to CERTIFIED BY Ta:[t. LAW SOCIETY :t.s A SPEc.:IAI I:s1 IN t:tVI►,. La:T. Gr1.Tlr:►r. t FLUENT IN BOTH Ir L €.AN AND FR E NC11. 4.iANGr.A.GE s determine the governance structure for the three companies having regard to current circumstances. The purpose of this letter is to give City Council and Niagara Falls Hydro information that it requires in order to determine the governance structure for the Niagara Falls Hydro family of companies in order to permit the appointments to be made to the Boards of Directors. This letter will provide both background information about this matter together with an option that Council may wish to consider in making a determination respecting this matter. It should be understood, however, that in considering the option contained in this report for a governance structure, Council should be aware that this is an option only that has been worked up with Niagara Falls Hydro Staff and City Staff and is presented to facilitate discussion and hopefully assist Council in its deliberations. It is not, however, to be considered prescriptive since Council has a wide latitude of potential options in this matter subject only to applicable corporate law. A brief chronology of events relevant to this matter is as follows: Prior to 2000 Niagara Falls Hydro functioned as a public utility with an elected Commission to govern its affairs. The Commissioners were elected as part of the municipal election cycle with a term concurrent with the Council's term. In addition to the four elected Commissioners, the Mayor also served as a member of the Commission. In 2000 as a consequence of the reorganization of the electricity industry by the Government of Ontario, municipalities were given direct ownership of their electrical utilities. At that time the City opted to retain the utility and incorporate it under the Business Corporations Act. The incorporation produced the Niagara Falls Hydro family of companies (Holdco, LDC and Servco) referred to above in order to allow for the separation of licenced distribution business from the retail business as required by law. By virtue of this incorporation, all three Boards of Directors were effectively constituted with the same ten members comprised of the Mayor, one member of City Council appointed by City Council and seven members of the public also appointed by City Council and the President of Niagara Falls Hydro. The appointments were made in accordance with procedure set out in the incorporating documents including a list of qualifications for Directors as shown in Schedule "A" attached hereto. The term of the first Board of Directors was made concurrent with the term of Council. In 2003 the composition of the Board of Directors of the Niagara Falls Hydro family of companies was amended to provide for nine members including the Mayor, three members of City Council appointed by City Council, four members of the public appointed by City Council and the President of Niagara Falls Hydro. OPTION: An option for Council to consider for the governance structure of the Niagara Falls Hydro family of companies going forward in 2007 is shown in Schedule "C" attached hereto. Under the option: Last year Council agreed in principle to the merger of its LDC with the LDC of PenWest Hydro. PenWest Hydro LDC is itself a merged LDC formed by Pelham, West Lincoln and Lincoln. Under the term sheet and related documents for the merger with PenWest, the merged LDC (Mergeco) will have an eight person Board of Directors with four members from Niagara Falls and a total of four members from the three municipalities comprising PenWest. The merger is in the process of being completed as a result of the recent decision of the Government of Ontario to allow the merger to be concluded without transfer tax. It is anticipated that the final merger documents and arrangements will be concluded in the Spring of this year. The effect of the merger from a governance standpoint will be to create a new merged distribution company (Mergeco) with a Board of Directors consisting of eight members including four members from Niagara Falls. Last year Council approved changes to the Boards of the Niagara Falls Hydro family of companies to comply with the requirements of the Provincial Affiliate Relationship Code "ARC The ARC requirements promulgated by the Ontario Energy Board require that one -third of the members of the Board of Directors of an LDC be independent from any affiliated body. Since the City, Holdco and Servco are all affiliates of LDC it was necessary to change the composition of Holdco by removing three of the private citizen appointments therefrom and by changing the composition of Servco by removing all of the Directors except the President of the LDC in order to comply with ARC. These changes resulted in the current governance structure as shown in Schedule "B" attached hereto. A. Holdco would have a Board of Directors consisting of all nine members of Council. Although Holdco is a holding company for the two operating subsidiary companies (LDC and Servco) and will only meet a few times a year in a supervisory role, it may be appropriate, with the proposed merger to be concluded shortly, for all members of Council to participate on the Holdco Board to i. Share the responsibility for the governance of the City's single most valuable asset; ii. Supervise the operating companies particularly in the post merger era when the LDC will be a merged company with three other municipalities; and -4- iii. Make decisions on major items involving the merged LDC in accordance with the term sheet and related documents approved by Council in principle last year. The Directors' compensation for Holdco could be based on the current per meeting allowance now provided to members of the Board. B. LDC would have a four member Board of Directors consisting of two private citizens and up to two members of Council (including the Mayor) all appointed by Holdco. This would be consistent with the Niagara Falls component of the Mergeco Board (ie. Four members of the eight member Board) when the merger is concluded in accordance with the term sheet and related documents approved by Council in principle. This structure would also be consistent with the ARC rules that must be complied with. The Directors compensation for LDC could be the same as exists presently for the LDC until the merger is concluded. PenWest should probably also be consulted before matters are finalized to ensure that there is consistency within Mergeco's Board respecting composition and remuneration. C. Servco would have the same governance structure that it currently has consisting of the President of Niagara Falls Hydro as the sole Director. In reality, as explained earlier in this report, LDC is the core operating business and Servco currently is a very minor business that handles billing activities with the City. The above Option would provide Council with a governance structure geared to the post merger scenario that also complies with the ARC requirements. The LDC could simply become the Niagara Falls representation on the Mergeco Board without having to make further changes as shown in Schedule "C In this sense, it appears to be both logical and practical, however it is only an option for Council to consider to facilitate discussion and is not the only option available.

BACKGROUND: Staff has begun the process for advertising for citizen volunteers for various advisory committees to Council. Advertisements were placed in the Niagara Falls Review and an application blank is downloadable from the City's website. Most of the appointments will be done at the next Council meeting. It was necessary, however, to do the appointments for the Public Library Board because the Public Libraries Act stipulates that appointments must be made within 60 days after the Council's first meeting. The February 5 Council meeting would have been one day after the deadline under the Act. A list of th candidates for the Library Board is attached. Council members have been provided with a copy of the application blanks for the candidates. As done last term, with regard to council member appointments to various agencies, boards and committees, a questionnaire will be sent around and Council members are to fill in their preferences. Last term, councillors were able to amicably work out their various appointments. It may be necessary, however, to have a vote if there are more councillors interested than positions available. The questionnaire will be distributed after staff receives input on Committee of Adjustment and Hydro Board composition, which are the subject of other reports on this evening's agenda. Our Council has used a secret ballot process for making citizen appointments. Ballots have been drawn up with interested volunteers' names, councillors fill out their ballot secretly, two staff scrutineers are appointed and a tally of the successful candidates is announced. 0 Queen Street, P.O. Box 1023, Niagara Falls, ON, Canada 1.2E 6X5 905- 356 -7521 www.niagarafalls.ca Working Together to Serve Our Community Corporate Services Department Clerks January 22, 2007 Although there has been an inherent logic in such secrecy, it is contrary to the Municipal Act. The Act states the following: Except as provided in section 233, no vote shall be taken by ballot or by any other method of secret voting, and every vote so taken is of no effect. The exception under s. 233 occurs when the Region, for example, votes on a Regional Chair from amongst its members, the vote may be conducted by secret ballot. The Municipal Statute Amendment Act also allows a presiding officer to be designated by special ballot. It is staff's responsibility to advise Council that the secret ballot process followed in past years is contrary to the Act. Although the practice has not been challenged, that does not give it legitimacy. Also, as Council is well aware, there is a movement toward more openness and transparency in all Council decisions. With the multiplicity of candidates and committees, it would be impractical and time consuming to do a hand vote or viva voce (voice) vote; therefore, staff is proposing that preassigned ballots will be distributed to Council members. Members will vote by ballot and a tally will be done. A motion, duly seconded, appointing the successful candidates will be made after the tally has been done. The ballots will be kept by the Clerk in the Council meeting file and available for examination. The proposed voting process will be efficient, expedient, meet the requirements of the Municipal Act and ensure the openness and transparency of the Council's decision.

BACKGROUND: Borrowing for Current Expenditures The Municipal Act makes provision for the Council to authorize the Mayor and Treasurer to borrow from time to time such sums as the Council considers necessary to meet the current expenditures of the Corporation for the year. The City of Niagara Falls may be required to borrow, from time to time, a sum or sums not exceeding in the aggregate $23,000,000.00. These temporary borrowings are necessary to pay for obligations prior to the collection of taxes. Staff recommends Council approve the borrowing of a sum or sums not exceeding in the aggregate $23,000,000.00. This amount is the limit established originally in 1993. On November 5, 2001, City Council approved Report F- 2001 -65 and enacted borrowing by -law No. 2001 -234 that specifically refers to the acquisition of the CNCP Railway Corridor. Staff advises that the 2006 borrowing by -law should include the Standby Letter of Credit in favour of the CNCP to cover the demolition cost of the International Rail Bridge. 0 Queen Street, P.O.

Council City of Niagara Falls, Ontario BACKGROUND: Niag ara alts CANADA Members: Re: IS- 2007 -01 Maintenance Management Application RECOMMENDATION: That Council approve the purchase, development and implementation of the Cartegraph Citizen Request, Work and Asset Management system. In September, 2002 Finance received approval to purchase Vadim software to fulfill its financial requirements. At that time it was determined that the General Ledger would remain a true financial system and that Maintenance Management would provide the divisions with the tracking and project management system that they required. In 2004 when the financials were fully functioning the task of setting up Maintenance Management began. After a year of meetings, with divisions, the committee [Finance and IS staff] were ready to proceed. Information Systems began entering into the test environment of the Maintenance Management system supplied by Vadim. Unfortunately this testing was short lived. In the fall of 2005, Vadim made a business decision to discontinue support of its Maintenance Management application and replace it with Cartegraph modules. The committee decided to halt the implementation of the Vadim Maintenance Management system. While Vadim was negotiating with Cartegraph the committee began reviewing the new product. It was determined at that time to consider, again, the application Work Manager from Direct IT. This application has been installed at the Service Centre for many years but was not being used to its actual potential. Throughout 2006 meetings were held with all divisions where demonstrations of both products were provided. In November final meetings were held with the vendors. Information Systems staff reviewed the products and made the decision to recommend the Vadim /Cartegraph solution. We then met with Finance, Municipal Works and a UEM consultant and all agreed that the Cartegraph product will fulfill all of our requirements for Maintenance Management and the impending impact of the PSAB legislation. 4310 Queen Street, P.O.

BACKGROUND: 656508 Ontario Limited has requested an amendment to Zoning By -law No. 79 -200 for the former Warren Avenue right -of -way and the former Canada South Railway lands between Murray Street and Robinson Street, as shown on Schedule 1. By -law No. 99 -106 was passed by Council on May 17, 1999 to permit the lands between Murray Street and Robinson Street, east of Fallsview Boulevard, to be used for off -site parking for the Skylon Tower development and other uses on the lands. A Holding symbol (H) was placed on the above noted right -of -ways to ensure the owner of the adjacent lands entered into an agreement with the City with respect to the specific parking rights and layout of uses on the subject lands. The said owner is now entering into encroachment agreements with the City as discussed below. The conditions of the Holding symbol have been met as they apply to the subject land, therefore the holding symbol can be lifted from these lands. Related to this matter and also on tonight's agenda for Council's consideration is a by -law seeking authorization for the Mayor and Clerk to execute agreements permitting 656508 Ontario Limited to encroach on the subject lands. A pedestrian bridge over the former Warren Avenue and a pedestrian walkway on the former Canada Southern Railway Company lands are constructed. This agreement will now facilitate pedestrian linkages between the Skylon Tower and the Murray Street pedestrian bridge and Fallsview Casino to be opened. 4310 Queen Street, PO. Box 1023, Niagara Falls, ON, Canada L2E 6X5 905- 356 -7521 www.niagarafalls.ca Working Together to Serve Our Community Corporate Services Department Planning Development January 22, 2007 2 PD- 2007 -04 Overview: The Holding symbol can be removed from these lands as the conditions for its lifting have been met as follows: The above noted encroachment agreements define the rights of the applicant to construct the bridge and the pedestrian walkway on the subject land, and also secure the rights of the City to terminate this agreement should the lands be required for public purposes including the development of a people mover system. A site plan agreement has been executed for adjacent lands. The site plan identifies sufficient parking for uses on adjacent lands without developing parking on the subject lands. At the time of passage of the original By -law No. 99 -166, negotiations were ongoing with respect to purchasing the former Canada Southern Railway lands. Now that the lands have been acquired by the City and the City can better control the use of the lands, a holding symbol on these lands is no longer necessary. To remove a holding symbol. the City is only required to give notice to those who have requested notice in writing. This notice has been provided to the lessee of the lands (656508 Ontario Limited), the Region and Niagara Parks Commission. Council's decision to remove the Holding symbol comes into effect upon passage of the amending by -law and cannot be appealed. The Holding (H) symbol also applies to the former railway right -of -way north of Robinson Street. As this parcel is not subject to the above noted walkway agreement and its future use for the People Mover or any other acceptable use has not been finalized, it is appropriate to leave the Holding symbol in place on this other right -of -way parcel. CONCLUSION: With the execution of the related site plan and encroachment agreements, the conditions pursuant to placing the former Warren Avenue right -of -way and the former Canada Southern Railway lands south of Robinson Street under a Holding symbol are satisfied. Therefore, this Holding symbol can be lifted. Recommended by: Respectfully submitted: AB:gd Attach.

BACKGROUND: On January 26, 2006, the City of Niagara Falls entered into a Subdivision Agreement detailing the terms and conditions of development for the Garner Village Estates Project. The project contained a number of servicing elements that were designed to accommodate other developments beyond the limits of the Plan. This list of services included the extension of McGarry Drive to Garner Road including watermains, sanitary and storm sewers and sidewalks. In addition some of the services were oversized to convey flows to and from new development to the north. Section 44 of the Subdivision Agreement states: The City shall pay to the Developer the sum of $103,427.93 which represents the total cost sharing of services set out in Schedule "D" after crediting the Development Charges payable by the developer as set out in Schedule "F." Payment for constructed works shall be made at such time that the forty -five (45) day construction lien hold back has expired, all claims resolved and payment made to the contractor. The City will receive a written request from the Developer for payment of the City's share of the constructed works along with a Statutory Declaration signed by the Contractor that they have been paid the full amount."

BACKGROUND: As indicated in report MW- 2006 -125 when staff requested an extension of the interim amendments to the existing City's by -law there were a number of comments being provided and questions asked from a number of stakeholders in the process. On January 10, 2007, another request was received by staff to meet on the by -law as a result of the responses by City staff to the questions asked. In order to provide the necessary time not only to meet with the stakeholders and provide the draft of the proposed by -law well in advance of a public meeting staff is once again requesting an extension to the interim amendments. Based on the comments we have received to date staff is anticipating that at the Council meeting when the new by -law is being considered it is most likely that it would not be passed that evening and that further meetings with stakeholders will need to be carried out. Accordingly, it is staff's suggestion that the extension of the interim amendments be in place until the passing of the new sign by -law. Committee's concurrence with the above recommendation would be appreciated. Recommended by: Respectfully submitted: Ed Dujlov is n it g ector of Municipal Works 4310 Queen Street, P.O.

A major issue is the extent to which the downtown area can be re- merchandised and redeveloped to tap into these extensive consumer dollar flows. We realize that the City has made strong efforts over the past several years to plan for an orderly redevelopment of the downtown and investment interests have appeared on the horizon. We also appreciate that you want a complete perspective on both the economic costs and the economic benefits of the proposal currently before the City We believe that the accompanying study program will help you gain that economic perspective through a high level review of the costs and benefits of the proposal and establish timely criteria and goals for this potential retail resurgence in the downtown. It will also put you in a position to establish the extent and timing of municipal efforts and contributions to this potential Please call if' you have any further questions on our proposal Please note that we are relying on City staff and their engineering consultants to provide us with the cost information for infrastructure improvements, parking structures, urban streetscape improvements etc. We anticipate that the study program itself will take eight to ten weeks to production of a draft report for review by City staff.

As a result of this testing, DataFix has been able to optimize the performance of the MW application to accommodate municipalities of all sizes. 3.4. Reliability All hardware used to support the MW application utilizes extensive fault tolerance features, including RAID -5 disk arrays and redundant power supplies. In addition, all servers and communications equipment are protected through the use of Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS). To ensure the quality and accuracy of the MW system itself, DataFix has built a set of rigorous and comprehensive test plans. These plans encompass application functionality, data inputs and outputs, and performance. 3.5. Compatibility MW can coexist and work in a complementary manner with existing municipal electoral systems. Because the default output from MW is a file using the VNF format, any existing systems should be compatible. 3.6.

Box 1023 Niagara Falls, ON L2E 6X5 Your Worship, We are pleased to announce that the first week of February 2007, is Canada's White Cane Week (WCW). This year it is February 4 -11. In partnership with the Canadian Council of the Blind (CCB), VoicePrint., Canada's 24/7 audio newsstand, is writing you today for your support in the form of an official proclamation letter from the Office of the Mayor saluting WCW 2007 Since 1946, due to the CCB's initiative, the first week of February has traditionally been "White Cane Week" in Canada. The purpose of WCW has always been educational. Over the years, the WCW program has evolved to reflect the changing situations of people who are blind and vision restricted. But one thing has stayed constant: the CCB and VoicePrint are united in their efforts to break barriers. Established in 1990, VoicePrint, a division of the National Broadcast Reading Service Inc, a registered charity, brings full -text audio recordings of articles from more than 600 publications to all Canadians but particularly the 4.5 million of us who can't access this information due to, for example, blindness or other vision restrictions, learning or physical disability, low literacy skills or just getting older. With the help of more than 800 volunteers, VoicePrint delivers a steady and timely flow of information that is essential to the decision- making needs of our audience. In Niagara Region and Hamilton alone, we have 38 volunteers who read "spoken -word" articles, listings and ads from local papers (Niagara Falls Review, Hamilton Spectator, Hamilton Mountain News, St. Catharines Standard, Welland Tribune, The Voice of Pelham, Port Colborne Leader, Dunnville Chronicle, Niagara News Thorold, Niagara Advance NOTL, Fort Erie Times) in an effort to expand community news and information to vision- and print- restricted citizens. Trained to carry out all aspects of creating accessible local print news, our Local Broadcast Centre volunteers are the program editors, producers and webmasters. They read from community newspapers (including Grocery) to give print restricted Canadians access to information via a webpage dedicated to their town, city or area on our accessible website: voiceprintcanada.com. WCW emphasizes the equal capabilities and talents of people who are blind and vision restricted and VoicePrint is committed to promoting this message and empowering Canadians with accessible information, the white cane and beyond. Help us acknowledge the CCB and VoicePrint's efforts in the form of an official proclamation of WCW 2007.

I seem to be hearing that my sentiments ie. that we are extending our efforts to act democratically so far that they are now becoming undemocratic are shared. From: "Carolynn loannoni" <ioannoni Dean I agree that this is not the way to appoint people. There is no upside and will only cause problems. The voting booth whether for appointments or elections have always been private, and thats the way it should be. Carolynn Jim Diodati 01/22/07 11:10 AM Dean, I have to agree with Janice. It's not a secret vote, it's a public but anonymous vote (just like an election). Let's take it a step further and have all of the City's electorate publicly report who they voted for, and keep it on file. Maybe we need clarification from the Ministry of Municipal Affairs. There is no upside that I can see. Jim From: Dean lorfida To: Janice Wing Subject: Re: appointments Janice: Yes, ballots attributable to each specific Council member. I don't disgaree with anything you say and you are correct that the purpose of that aspect of the report was to inform Council that the secret ballot is contrary to the Municipal Act. This issue came to the fore recently at the Region when Councillor Puttick challenged their process for appointments at the Region (albeit Councillor appointments). Unfortunately, there is no legislation that I can find that would justify the secret ballot process even for citizen appointments. Although I can appreciate it puts Council in an uncomfortable position, I would argue that the reason why we have the candidates fill out applications and list their credentials /qualifications /volunteer experience is so that Council will choose based on the best qualified candidate. Thanks Dean "Janice Wing" <janice_wing @cogeco.ca> 1/22/2007 9:07 AM Hi Dean, have a question about the Public Library Board Appointments report: When you say "staff is proposing that preassigned ballots will be distributed to Council members," do you mean that these ballots will be directly attributable (ie. by including Council members' names on the ballots assigned each) to the respective Council members and that these members' votes will be on the public record? I appreciate movement toward greater openness, transparency and accountability, and probably no one on this Council has been a greater advocate of this than I. There do have to be, however, in my opinion, reasonable limits to everything. I would think that where the Council members are required to make a selection of one community- minded citizen over another is one such place. Being able to determine how a Council member voted may foster the selection of purely political appointees ie. selecting people in return of past favours (eg. feeling compelled to vote for those who hosted Council members' election signs, worked on their campaigns, or whatever), rather than purely on the basis of whose application indicates that best candidacy for the position and the most to offer to that particular board or committee. My other concern with your report is the proposal that the ballots "be kept by the Clerk in the Council meeting file and available for examination" and the potential for embarrassment to which this may open applicants. If anyone from the community is able to view the ballots, it would be all to easy for someone who is not friendly to a given applicant to embarrass that person by publicly broadcasting such news as Joe Smith or Mary Jones did not receive a single vote when they ran for a given position or positions. realize and accept that it is your responsibility to inform Council of potential problems with various practices as you identify them. I think in this particular case, however, those past practices are more in keeping with the spirit of democracy than the more politically correct proposed alternatives. janice CC: Bill Matson; Council Members January 22, 2007 MW- 2007 -01 His Worship Mayor Ted Said and Members of the Municipal Council City of Niagara Falls, Ontario Members: RECOMMENDATION: BACKGROUND: Niag ara ails CANADA Re: MW- 2007 -01 Contract 2007- 146 -05 Watermain Replacement Portage Road from Elizabeth Street to O'Neil Street St. Paul Avenue from O'Neil Street to Riall Street That the unit prices submitted by the lowest tender Alfidome Construction be accepted and that the Mayor and City Clerk be authorized to execute the necessary agreement.

"The league did not set a deadline for Melnyk to sell the IceDogs." To: The Committee to Review the Mississauga IceDogs Proposal From: Bernadette A. Secco Date: January 14, 2007. TSN.ca Canada's Sports Leader July 12, 2006 3:08:20 PM The Mississauga IceDogs presentation to council on Monday, January 8, 2007, and comments made on the radio, Internet blogs, The Review, North Bay Nugget, Windsor Star and TSN raise the following questions and concerns: 1. Basically, all the Mississauga IceDogs need is a place to call home for the 2007/08 season. Since the City of Niagara Falls welcomes 14 million visitors a year it can probably find room for a few more hockey players and staff. It will cost Niagara Falls taxpayers absolutely nothing to have the IceDogs play in an existing facility for one year. 2. As a bonus, the experience will provide much needed quantitative data on the amount of support for Jr.A hockey in Niagara Falls, before any tax dollars are spent on construction. IceDogs fans blog that the announced attendance in Mississauga is about 1000 per game. If Mississauga (pop. 650,000) has 1000 fans at the 5400 seat Hershey Centre would a Jr..A team in Niagara Falls need a 3000 or 5000 seat arena? 3. Past council approved spending $18M on a twin -pad complex with a 3000 seat main arena. The IceDogs proposal is to spend $35M on a 5000 seat arena with options for conventions, concerts, community events, etc. Can Niagara Falls sustain four attractor /convention centres? 4. The current rumour is that the province will soon announce a convention centre on Stanley Avenue. City council has already approved the Hilton's 56 -story hotel with a convention centre, instead of parking. The local group `Fair Share', has the province reviewing Falls Management's contractual agreement to build a convention centre /attractor. The IceDogs' arena /convention centre would be the fourth such facility. Should Niagara Falls taxpayers shoulder the higher price tag of an arena /convention centre when there are three convention centres to be built without city tax dollars? Committee to Review the Mississauga IceDogs Proposal January 14, 2007 Pg. 2 /2 5. On January 8, 2007, council was told a prompt response was needed so the architect could begin working on the drawings for a speedy construction and September 2008 opening. Why would an architect be working on drawings before the location is finalized, the property purchased, the traffic studies and environmental assessments etc completed and approved? Is there another reason why this eleventh -hour proposal has come to Niagara Falls? Is this a tactic to pit Niagara Falls against a proposal to bring the IceDogs to North Bay? Why the rush if the OHL has not imposed a deadline for the sale of the team? 6. The proposal suggests there will be financial benefits to Niagara Falls when the many "If's" are met. In the recent past, Niagara Falls taxpayers made infrastructure investments for the new casino on the same basis of "If's promises and expectations. To date, the anticipated financial benefits to the City have not yet been realized because of those "If's What steps will be taken to reduce the `If's" and guarantee Niagara Falls taxpayers will not be taking another hit in a well- intentioned but less than ideally negotiated public private partnership? I humbly request the committee and council consider the above and not be blinded by the bling of the IceDogs proposal. Respectfully submitted by, Bernadette A. Secco "It was cheaper to buy the IceDogs and move into their building than to build a new arena." "The league did not set a deadline for Melnyk to sell the IceDogs."

And as we discussed, it is my opinion, that council deliberating one project 'in camera' at the request of the proponent when not required under the Municipal Act sets a precedent for any proponent or supplier to request and expect their contract will be discussed 'in camera' without public scrutiny.

While I respect the proponents' right to not have this played out in the papers, I still feel that we need to be included in this process. My main concern, as always, is how this will affect the community user groups and the community arena project. From what I have read, this project will not help the user groups in as far as any additional ice surfaces, it in fact will directly reduce our ice allocation next year as the Jr. A team will take over whatever number of hours they need to operate and then there will be a trickle down effect as the displaced user groups scramble to recoup the ice that is lost. I suspect that not only will the user groups be short changed of hours in Niagara Falls, they most likely will have to go to surrounding communities in order to make up for the lost time when the "bumping" process starts to accomodate the Jr. A. team. am very hard pressed to endorse such a project at the expense of the community arena project. I can only imagine the financial ramifications of a $35 million investment in an arena with only a $5 million investment from the proponent. As you are aware, the community arena project is already well under way and I hope that you remember all the hard work and investment already made by the community towards this project, not only by the Arena Steering Committee and the Recreation Committee but also the monies already paid to retain an Architect who has already designed our community twin pad arena. We have always in the past tried to keep clear that we do not want these two types of projects to be confused. I do not believe one can be interchanged with the other. They both serve two different purposes. One is entertainment/tourism related and the other directly effects the quality of life for our community use. I would ask that you please review all that has been done for our community arenas and I can only hope that the committee that was appointed to review this proposal asked all the appropriate questions on how this will affect the community and its user groups. Again, we were not involved in this process at all, so we have no idea what has been proposed nor what has been discussed and I hope that a decision in favour of this proposal would not be rendered without our input.

Myself and Steve attended. It was requested that I provide these summary notes to you. In turn it was asked that you provide to Mayor and Members of Council in advance of the January 22, 2007 meeting of Council. General Background The Junior B's and Junior C's, (represented by Terry Masterson and Mick Wolfe) had requested a meeting with staff following the January 8, 2007 presentation regarding the recent OHL proposal from the Capital Sports Management to Council, City of Niagara Falls. The general purpose of the meeting of January 19, 2007 was to allow each hockey club to provide staff with their comments, concerns and opinions regarding this latest proposal and specifically the potential impacts it would have to each Club in the community. These comments would in turn be provided to the CAO by staff. Key Issues Communicated by the Junior B's and Junior C's to PRC Staff: Both Clubs, with very long standing history (35 years) in the community conveyed there support of hockey, including the OHL in our community and that in expressing their concerns about the current proposal it should not be viewed as either Club being against an OHL facility that brings signficant private sector funding to support the private facility. The lack of consultation and communications as the Clubs now understood a decision (front page of the Review, January 19, 2007) was being made by Council is of serious concern to both Clubs. The priority for both Clubs is ensuring an appropriate community arena /facility that meets the needs of the Clubs and the community in Niagara Falls. A community facility should not be sacrificed /negated to instead support or fund a private sector initiative. The B's expressed their continued support, consistent with the JDS proposal review process, of wanting to remain in a community arena with at least 2000 seats, prefer 3000 seats with dedicated offices, dressing rooms, revenue streams continued. The Club conveyed that sharing space in a new OHL franchise would not be viable unless their current service levels, including offices revenues sources (consistent with what is provided at Memorial) were sustained such as board advertising which are provided by the City to the Club. The impact to the Club, if an OHL team was housed in any transition, (ie: 2 years) was a concern to the B's and would they be expected to move out of Memorial arena to accomodate the OHL team. The viability of the C's to remain at Chippawa, as the team has already expressed their interest via a letter to staff in relocating to the new community twin pad arena (which has the support of the B's) would also be a concern. The limitations of Chippawa as a facility for their continued presence in the community is a factor. It was conveyed that the comments from the January 8, 2007 presentation regarding a twin pad arena at a cost of approximately $7.3 Million would not provide the community with the type or quality of community facility that is being planned at this time. The term 'tin can like arena' was used by the Clubs as very little features or community space would be achievable in an arena built for this cost and Council should understand what type of facility can be provided for this cost. The need of the community ice users, many of whom were represented on the arena steering committee, is not just about an extra 'ice surface' (ie: one basic pad) but also addressing the state of the 3 aged arena facilities, they are 'embarrassing' and file: /C: Documents% 2 0and% 20Settings1kh1011Local %20Settings \Temp \GW }00001.HTM 1/19/2007 1 cigu z, 01 replacement needs /costs to meet community demand for the next 10 to 20 years, which included tournament use. The need to have facilities the community is proud of is also an important issue for the user groups who support them as taxpayers. The success, with over $700,000 pledged /raised in approx 8 weeks was seen to reflect the sentiment of the community and they support this community facility. The impact to the fundraising campaign to increase to 3000 seats from the original 2001 was a signficant concern. It was conveyed that the ability to resurrect this very successful community campaign is likely impossible now. The view was expressed that if the community was told originally that in order to support an expansion to 3000 seats that community direct funding was needed for $1.5 million. Now the City is prepared to invest/spend approximately $35 M of taxpayer monies for an OHL facility which would question why the financial support of the community was needed to expand to 3000 seats and it may be very difficult to find community residents or corporate firms to support this campaign, which is now on hold (with none of the $700,000 deposited and many of the cheques now dated as post 6 months). the history of former OHL clubs in Niagara Falls was mentioned and that each Club stressed the need for a marketing and business plan to ensure this OHL project is viable. The ability of such a facility to draw and secure A entertainment (or B or C) was questioned and what studies support achieving about 100 major events per year in Niagara Falls given where the City Falls is geographically situation and is surrounded by other entertainment centres like Buffalo, Hamilton, two casinos with theatres (Senceca USA, and Avalon), as well as Hamilton, Mississauga, and Toronto. The Clubs expected that prior to any decision being made by Council regarding the OHL proposal that formal consultation would include them as well as other user groups. Request to Staff Staff was requested to provide the summary notes of this meeting to the CAO and in turn ask that they be forwarded to the Mayor and Members of Council. Denyse Morrissey, B.A., M.P.A.

You are correct that there is a by -law on our agenda related to the execution of an agreement between the City and Henry Joseph for the preparation of an economic evaluation (see attached). I can let the mayor know that Aaron has requested to speak, however, he would be limited to speaking to the by -law only. Also, I am not sure why Aaron would want to speak to an agreement that he is not a party to, especially in light of the fact that Mr. Joseph has already completed months of work. Sincerely, Dean "Marcus Mizrachi" <mizrachi @outsidetbb.com> 1/19/2007 11:06 AM Aaron doesn't want to change the agenda. He just wants to speak on the Henry Joseph matter. He will be brief.
