The meeting was held to discuss how we can ensure that duplication doesn't occur. The group discussed how we can work more efficiently together and create synergies that benefit our municipalities and Region. A meeting is being planned with the above noted reps and the Regional Chair and NETCO staff to develop strategies on how we can be more effective and efficient in our service delivery. Thanks, Serge Dean Iorfida 1/29/2007 9:38 AM Serge: At staff we discussed having a memo in the agenda indicating that the Region and the various BDD's were studying the duplication issue.

(416) 585 -7000 Telec. (416) 585 -6470 www.mah.aov.on.ca 06 -30034 Premier Dalton McGuinty has forwarded a copy of your e -mails of September 24 and April 28, 2006, with regard to municipal restructuring and funding. As Minister of Municipal Affairs and Housing, it is my responsibility to help ensure that all Ontarians enjoy the security that comes from living in financially viable and sustainable municipalities that deliver the services expected from local government. I understand that residents in some municipalities continue to have concerns about the governance structures of their municipalities. Let me say once more that I am willing to consider a restructuring proposal that contemplates an alternative governance structure, provided that the following criteria are met: approval and submission of the proposal by local council or the appropriate councils (in two -tier municipalities); demonstrated property -tax fairness for all residents; and demonstrated fiscal self- sustainability for all proposed new municipalities. As you can appreciate, the decision to change a municipality's structure is an extremely complex and important undertaking. Therefore, any restructuring proposal would need to clearly demonstrate a detailed level of analysis that is supported by substantive evidence and consultation, which such an issue warrants. Ontario That being said, restructuring is not this government's priority, and there is no provincial funding available for municipal restructuring. The costs of developing and implementing a proposal would therefore be borne by the municipality. /1 /2 Mr. Norm Puttick 2 The McGuinty government has made it a priority to work in partnership with the municipal sector and has taken major steps forward with significant new investments in Ontario's municipalities. For example, the 2006 Ontario Budget provided the Region of Niagara and lower -tier municipalities that form the Region with various funding through the Ontario Municipal Partnership Fund (OMPF), Move Ontario, and the Ontario gas -tax rebate program. The Province is building on its partnerships with municipalities by launching a joint review aimed at improving the delivery and funding of municipal services for Ontario families including housing, health and social services. The Provincial Municipal Fiscal and Service Delivery Review will be conducted by both orders of government, and a public report will be released in the spring of 2008. Thank you for bringing your concerns to the attention of the government.

Simply put do I understand IF a municipality meets certain criteria you are willing to consider a restructuring proposal as outlined in your letter of Nov 17? The costs "borne" by the municipality? I spent 35 yrs as Alderman on the City of Niagara Falls Council and was just elected to the Region of Niagara as councillor. I will upon 1 hope your early reply been a" yes" will begin to bring together those in Regional Niagara to pay and bring a plan that will be far superior then we now have. The year 2008 is too far off for us to discuss returning cost of housing,health and social services to the Province or some other appropriate accommodation. In closing I have met you many times at AMO etc and having been elected in 1966 I saw Regional Govt implemented and sat in on all the who does what" etc. I really appreciate your encouragement.

We have been trying to figure out how we could work together and without duplication (with some success), but we never really put pen to paper on the subject. Thanks to your inquiries and questions, we have finally done so. Your questioning of our collective and individual processes also highlights the importance of the Ontario Ministry of Tourism Destination Development mandate in that there must be a concerted effort on the part of ALL of the municipalities and the Region as a whole to ensure that the Tourism Industry in Niagara thrives and grows. Working together is the only way we can accomplish this. I am pleased to tell you that Patrick and I are now meeting on a regular basis (almost weekly) to discuss plans and initiatives. It has been many years since there has been this level of cooperation between the two organizations and I have every confidence that this will flourish especially under the new Destination Development Strategy currently being developed. I have also attached a copy of the Destination Development Org Chart for your information. It includes the names of the people serving on each of the individual committees as you can see Niagara Falls is very well represented.

I'm not sure there will be a huge appetite to once again go down the 'amalgamation' path. My concern is that the prospect of the Economic Development review and the Governance review at this time will undo much of the hard work of the last term to build a more collaborative 'one voice' atmosphere with area municipalities. I also think we need to let Council's Strategic Planning process for the new term unfold further before introducing these potentially divisive proposals. We also need to consider the significant efforts already underway in conjunction with area municipalities to achieve better efficiency and service delivery these include the Planning Review,a review of Transportation Roads) Water Wastewater and an internal review of our Payroll /Human Resources areas) To be very candid the Economic Development function is relatively small in comparison to some of the others. We also have to be sensitive to our capacity to undergo a number of significant reviews in parallel. The potentially negative impacts on day to day service delivery and workplace culture cannot be underestimated! This is not to say these aren't worthy of further review It is more a matter of timing and process. In the alternative you may wish to take a more staged approach and ask for some information regarding the Economic Development functions to better inform any future decisions regarding a major review. For example as I mentioned earlier some comparisons with other like sized Regions /Municipalities of budget resources programs offered, and an outline of the respective roles of the region and local programs will provide some better perspective on the degree of duplication service levels and level of investment and performance in the combined economic development functions in Niagara As well, by raising these issues during the Council planning sessions they can be framed as strategic initiatives for the new term to achieve more cost effective and integrated service delivery with our local municipal partners.They can also be introduced as a vehicle to potentially support a more effective execution of the recently developed Economic Growth Strategy another major effort in conjunction with area municipalities and the local private sector The introduction of Notices of Motion without the appropriate background now could prove both counterproductive and divisive. The approach needs to be sensitive to both the current fragile state of Niagara's economy and the burden of Niagara taxpayers.

(RioCan) Agent: Joel Farber, Folger Rubinoff Proposed Expansion Niagara Square RECOMMENDATION: 1. That Council approve the Zoning By -law amendment application to permit the floor area of Niagara Square to be increased as anticipated by the City's Official Plan, a reduced parking standard, an increased lot coverage and reduced building setbacks to McLeod Road, subject to the modifications outlined in this report. 2. That the amending by -law include a holding provision (H) to remain in place until a development agreement is executed with the applicant, securing the appropriate share of off -site roadway improvement costs as determined by an ongoing functional corridor study for McLeod Road. BACKGROUND: PD- 2007 -08 The amendment is requested for 7555 Montrose Road (Niagara Square) which is a 22.3 hectare (55 acre) parcel of land, as shown on Schedule 1. The amendment is requested to permit a proposed expansion of the shopping centre, including a new Canadian Tire store as well as several other smaller commercial buildings, as shown on Schedules 2 and 3. The land is zoned Planned Shopping Centre Commercial (SC -331) which permits a maximum gross leasable floor area (GLFA) of 44,150 square metres (475,242 sq. ft.). The maximum GLFA is proposed to be increased to 50,000 square metres (538,213 sq. ft.) to reflect the maximum floor area permitted by the Official Plan and to accommodate the 4310 Queen Street, P.O. Box 1023, Niagara Fails, ON, Canada L2E 6X5 905- 356 -7521 www.niagarafalls.ca g Together to Serve Our Community Corporate Services Department Planning Development February 5, 2007 2 PD- 2007 -08 proposed development. The applicant is also requesting site specific provisions to be applied to the lands to reduce the minimum parking standard to one (1) space per 20 square metres (215 sq. ft.) of GLFA, increase the building coverage from 25% to 35 reduce the minimum building setback to the property boundary adjacent to McLeod Road from 18 metres (59 feet) to 3 metres (10 feet) and reduce the minimum building setback to the original street centreline of McLeod Road from 34.76 metres (114 feet) to 19.5 metres. Surrounding Land Uses The Niagara Square shopping centre and Cineplex Odeon cinemas are located on the land. Industrial uses lie to the west and south of the land. Vacant land and commercial uses lie to the northeast, bordering the QEW. Vacant lands (intended for a significant major commercial development) and the McBain Community Centre lie to the north. Circulation Comments Regional Municipality of Niagara The proposed amendment to increase the floor area conforms with the City's Official Plan (Amendment No. 60). Municipal Works There are no concerns with the requested changes to the parking and lot coverage standards. However, in exchange, the City should secure increased landscaping on the periphery of the site. Construction of the proposed Canadian Tire store will result in the loss of a woodlot. Efforts should be made to retain or transplant trees within increased landscape strips along adjacent streets. A replanting program using native species would also be appropriate. The current southbound right -in entrance into the site from Montrose Road should be converted into a full signalized intersection to ensure proper access. Adequate underground services exist to accommodate the development. A reduction in the parking standard from one (1) space per 18 square metres of GLFA to one (1) space per 25 square metres of GLFA has been adequately demonstrated in a traffic and parking study submitted by the applicant. February 5, 2007 3 PD- 2007 -08 Building By -law Services Ministry of Transportation (MTO) Legal Services Fire Services Planning Analysis Road improvements recommended in the applicant's parking study are to be considered further in the ongoing functional corridor study for McLeod Road. A 1.52 metre (5 foot) road widening is sought along the entire length of the McLeod Road frontage of the property to protect for future transportation corridor improvements identified in the Region of Niagara's Arterial Road System Plan report. All required building permits to be obtained prior to the commencement of construction. All buildings to be located outside the 14 metre setback from the QEW. Building and Land Use Permits to be obtained from the MTO prior to construction. At the site plan stage, review of stormwater management and site grading will be completed. MTO has reviewed the traffic and parking study and requests modifications to benchmark traffic numbers to ensure conformity with MTO standards. In addition, the report should consider additional development (subject to an Official Plan amendment) at the southeast corner of McLeod Road and the QEW. There is an easement in favour of the City over a portion of the property to the east of the existing shopping centre. No objections. Approval of the application will implement the maximum GLFA established by the Official Plan. Subject to the modifications outlined in this report, the other requested changes to the existing provisions are acceptable. The following is Planning staff's analysis of this application. 1. The proposal complies with the intent and the purpose of the Official Plan. The land is designated Major Commercial and is located within the Niagara Square Retail District. In order to strengthen the District and ensure it's function as the City's regional retail shopping destination, Council adopted Official Plan Amendment No. 60 (OPA No. 60), permitting Niagara Square to expand to 50,000 square metres. February 5, 2007 4 PD- 2007 -08 This District is intended to be anchored by Niagara Square and to be supported by free standing box outlets and other multiple groupings of medium and smaller retail outlets. The proposal conforms to the Official Plan as follows: Increasing the GLFA cap in the Zoning By -law to 50,000 square metres will match the maximum GLFA cap contained in the Official Plan. The addition of a large retail store (Canadian Tire) will provide an additional anchor for this shopping centre and should assist in strengthening this node's role as a regional shopping destination. The balance of the additional floor space will provide for other retail, restaurant and commercial outlets that will reinforce this node's regional function. The Official Plan also seeks to retain existing tree cover, where possible, and requires a tree study where significant woodlots are affected by development proposals. An existing woodlot will be removed by the proposed Canadian Tire store development. The Region has indicated that trees in this woodlot should be saved where possible in landscape strips along the property boundary, or a replanting plan using native species should be implemented. A tree study, completed by the applicant, indicated that most of the trees were in poor condition and that there was no potential of relocating trees. After further discussions with City and Regional staff, the site plan was modified to save a significant tree near the corner of McLeod Road and Pin Oak Drive. A planting plan, incorporating native species around the oak tree and on a wider landscape strip north of the Canadian Tire building, should be secured through the site plan approval process. 2. The requested zoning is appropriate. The requested change to the current SC -331 zoning of the property will permit a maximum GLFA of 50,000 square metres (538,213 sq. ft.) for the entire development, consistent with the cap contained in the Official Plan. In addition, the following requested or recommended changes are appropriate. A reduction in the parking requirements to one (1) parking space per 20 square metres of GLFA will provide adequate parking for existing and future uses. Although an even lower parking standard (one space per 25 square metres or 259 square feet of GLFA) was demonstrated in the applicant's parking study, the applicant has opted to proceed with a more conservative standard. As the amount of required parking is being reduced, the requested increase in building lot coverage from 25% to 35% can be considered. The site is large enough to accommodate a higher intensity of development while maintaining adequate traffic circulation and good urban design. Provided landscaping and building setbacks are provided as recommended in this report, this increase is acceptable. February 5, 2007 5 PD- 2007 -08 Staff recommends a minimum 15% of the land be provided as landscaped open space, and the landscape strip along McLeod Road and Montrose Road adjacent to the Canadian Tire development be increased to 6 metres (19.7 feet). A minimum landscaped open space coverage of 15% and a 6 metre wide landscaping strip are requirements for other developments in the area, including the commercial lands on the north side of McLeod Road and the McBain Community Centre, and is needed to buffer the large parking area from adjacent streets and provide room for snow storage. Staff also recommends a provision be added to the amending by -law to treat the entire Niagara Square as one lot. This will allow individual parcels to be severed in the future without creating zoning issues. In addition to the foregoing, the application requests a reduction in the building setback to McLeod Road from 18 metres (60 feet) to 3 metres (10 feet). Staff recommends this setback be increased to 6 metres (19.7 feet) after the 1.5 metre (5 foot) road widening is taken for the following reasons: An 18 metre yard setback is required to ensure the large buildings typically built on SC zoned lands do not adversely impact surrounding streets and properties. SC zoned lands on the north side of McLeod Road are required to be set back 12 to 18 metres (40 to 60 feet) from this street. Ideally, the Canadian Tire store would be set back a similar distance, however, to avoid conflicts with the access driveway between this store and the Cineplex Theatres, a reduced setback of 6 metres is recommended. The Canadian Tire garden centre (located adjacent to McLeod Road) is an accessory open storage use that normally is not complementary to the streetscape nor is it engaging to passersby and therefore should be located in a less visible spot. The applicant is not willing to relocate the garden centre and therefore it should be screened by dense plantings to provide for a pleasing streetscape. The recommended 6. metre building setback would accommodate the recommended landscape strip and a proposed landscape strip and allow for a dense landscaping screen. A 6 metre landscape strip would provide greater opportunities to replace native species and trees that will have to be removed for the project to proceed. 3. A hold provision is recommended until traffic matters are dealt with. Due to the significant current and pending development applications along McLeod Road, The Ministry of Transportation (MTO) and the Region anticipate that the increase in traffic will necessitate significant improvements to McLeod Road and its associated intersections and bridges. A coordinated approach to road improvements is necessary due to the multiple jurisdictions and infrastructure ownership. Although the applicant has submitted a traffic study that identifies lane improvements and signalization of intersections adjacent to the site, it is anticipated that additional potentially expensive improvements will be needed along the corridor, due to the cumulative effects of traffic increase from each development. To ensure the City is not burdened by the cost of these improvements, it is necessary to arrange a cost sharing agreement with the affected developers. February 5, 2007 6 PD- 2007 -08 Staff has met with representatives of MTO and the Region, who concur that the McLeod Road functional study currently being conducted by the Region incorporate traffic generation from each proposed development and recommend the overall infrastructure needs. As these improvements are necessitated by new developments, the associated costs should be shared among the developers. Therefore, the MTO and the Region have requested that the additional floor space proposed on Niagara Square be placed under a hold provision until cost sharing agreements are executed. To ensure the applicant is not unduly delayed by a lengthy corridor study time period, it is recommended the cost sharing development agreement allow the option of binding the applicant to paying his share of costs prior to completion of the functional study. CONCLUSION: 1. The requested amendment can be supported for the following reasons: it implements the maximum floor area cap of 50,000 square metres (538,213 sq. ft.) of GLFA established by the Official Plan for Niagara Square; and the addition of the Canadian Tire Store, along with the additional floor areas, will help to strengthen the Niagara Square node and assist in its function as a regional shopping destination. 2. Increasing the proposed building setback from McLeod Road from 3 metres to 6 metres (19.7 feet) will be more consistent with surrounding development and provide room to effectively screen the garden centre. 3. A hold provision is recommended to be placed on the land until cost sharing for road improvements are determined and secured through the appropriate development agreements.

City of Niagara Falls Your File: AM- 05/2006 This application proposes revisions to the Planned Shopping Centre Commercial (SC) zoning on the Niagara Square lands to increase the Maximum Gross Leaseable Floor Area (GLFA) from 44,150 square metres to 50,000 square metres and to modify the parking and the lot coverage requirements. These revisions would facilitate the development of a new 8,696 square metre store in the northwest corner of the site. The proposed store would be separate from the existing mall structure. Amendment No. 60 to the Niagara Fails Official Plan which was approved in 2005 permits the development of Niagara Square as a regional shopping centre containing approximately 50,000 square metres of gross leasable floor area. The proposed revision to the zoning by -law to increase the leasable floor area conforms with Official Plan Amendment No. 80. The proposed revisions would also reduce the parking requirements for the shopping centre. No traffic /parking study has been submitted to this Department to justify the reduced parking standards. However, if the City is satisfied that the reduced parking standards will be adequate, we would have no objection to this revision. Regional Planning staff are not opposed to the proposed increase in lot coverage. However, as a trade -off we would encourage enhanced landscaping, especially around the perimeter of the shopping centre and landscaping details throughout the parking lots to minimize the "sea of asphalt° appearance.

In that letter, we indicated that we were not opposed to the rezoning because the proposed expansion conformed with the approved Official Plan Amendment No. 60. Since our March 1S letter, it has come to our attention that the site of the proposed store contains a small woodiot. This woodlot was identified by the City's woodlot inventory that was completed in the 1990's. The woodiot is also shown on the Region's electronic mapping system. However, the Region's Core Natural Heritage map recently adopted as part of Regional Policy Plan Amendment 187 does not identify the woodlot site as part of the Core Natural Heritage System. Notwithstanding the Core Natural Heritage map, the site does contain a woodlot and as such may satisfy the definition of a woodiot under the Region's Tree Conservation By -law. As a result, a Tree Saving Plan prepared by a qualified consultant should be submitted to the City as part of the approval process. The Plan should include an inventory of the woodiot that identifies any significant tree species, assesses the overall health of the woodiot and evaluates any connections to adjacent natural heritage areas. It is expected that this inventory would form the basis of any recommendations in the Tree Saving Plan. Yours truly, David J. Farley Director of Planning Services c: Councillor W.

The plan provides extensive details on the inventory of existing trees on the site including those that have been planted as part of the landscaping provided for the existing Niagara Square development. The Region's Tree and Forest Conservation By -law, however, is intended to address development that may affect natural woodlands that form part of the natural heritage system. In this regard, the woodlot that requires consideration for tree preservation is located at the southeast comer of Pin Oak Drive and McLeod Road where the new Canadian Tire store is being proposed. Unfortunately there does not appear to be any efforts for tree preservation provided as all existing trees will be removed. The Region's Tree and Forest Conservation By- law stipulates that development through a site plan agreement is exempt from the By -law where a Tree Saving Plan is approved and included in the agreement. The definition of a Tree Saving Plan" with minimum requirements is attached for your information. While it may be necessary to remove most of the forested area, there should be efforts made to retain existing trees either through increased landscaped strips along McLeod.Road. and[or.Pin Oak Drive or through transplanting trees within these areas. Further, a replanting program using native species would also be appropriate. This would more closely reflect the intent of the Region's Tree and Forest Conservation By -law.

As a resident of Niagara Falls, I am for the second year, requesting that you help us reach our goal by making an executive proclamation declaring this special week in February. I am the parent of a nearly 3 year old child, Kristopher Wilson, born with a Congenital Heart Defect called critical aortic stenosis. He has undergone 2 valvuloplasty procedures so far and will endure many, many more procedures throughout his entire life, including open heart surgery, unless of course medical advances are made, and minimally invasive techiques are made available to repair his heart defect. For more information about CHD Awareness week participants and activities, please see www.tchin.org /aware. I would be extremely proud if my city would participate in making February 7 -14th a special week to recognize people born with heart defects, to remember loved ones who lost their battle to CHD, and to honor the dedicated health professionals who work with us. I have included a rough draft of what I imagine a proclamation would look like., or statistics that you might include in one. I would be most grateful if you could sign the proclamation as soon as possible so that we can recognize this in the month of February. Congenital Heart Defects are the number one cause of death under the age of one and the number one birth defect. Your honouring of this event, and reading at council meeting, thus airing on cable 10, will have a profound impact on thousands of families and individuals. I thank you for your time and consideration. Respectfully, Mr. Rob Mrs. Theresa Wilson and children, Emma and Kristopher treewilson1975 or rwilson29 @cogeco.ca see sample proclamation below WHEREAS, Congenital Heart Defects are the most frequently occurring birth defect and the leading cause of birth defect related deaths worldwide; and WHEREAS, Families across Canada are facing the challenges, hardships and uncertainties of raising children with Congenital Heart Defects; and WHEREAS, Currently one of every 85 children is born with a Congenital Heart Defect and one of every 250 adults has a Congenital Heart Defect; and WHEREAS, Some Congenital Heart Defects are not diagnosed until months or years after birth; and WHEREAS, Undiagnosed Congenital Heart conditions cause many cases of sudden cardiac death in young athletes; and WHEREAS, Despite these statistics, newborns and young athletes are not routinely screened for Congenital Heart Defects; and WHEREAS, A disproportionately small amount of funding is available for Congenital Heart Defect research and support; and WHEREAS, Congenital Heart Defect Awareness Week provides an opportunity for families whose lives have been affected to celebrate life and to remember loved ones lost, to honor dedicated health professionals, and to meet others and know they are not alone; and WHEREAS, The establishment of Congenital Heart Defect Awareness Week will also provide the opportunity to share experience and information with the public and the media, in order to raise public awareness about Congenital Heart Defects; THEREFORE, Be it resolved by Mayor Ted Salci of Niagara Falls, that February 7 -14, 2007, be proclaimed as Congenital Heart Defect Awareness Week and encourages all citizens to increase awareness, education, and services for Congenital Heart Defects which each year affect thousands of babies in Canada. Corporate Services Department Clerk's Division Inter Department Memorandum NiagaraJalls CANADA TO: Mayor Ted Salci DATE: February 5th, 2007 Members of Council FROM: Dean Iorfida City Clerk Ext. 4271 RE: Request for Exemption Under Noise Control By -law 2004 -105 Staff has received the attached request for an exemption under its Noise Control By -law from the contractors working on improvements to Highway 405. As is custom in major repairs to 400 series highways, construction is lengthy and usually takes place overnight. Nighttime construction minimizes traffic impacts on the community. The Noise Control By -law (2004 -105) prohibits construction 7:00 p.m. and 7:00 a.m. during the week days and between 7:00 p.m. and 9:00 a.m. on weekends and statutory holidays. Section 7 of the noise by -law does allow for an application for an exemption under the by -law, however, such an exemption is not to be in excess of six (6) months. The construction in question is slated from June 2007 to November 2008. Council faced a similar situation prior to work commencing on the Niagara Tunnel Project. The solution was to amend the by -law. Report CD- 2005 -07, pertaining to the Niagara Tunnel Project, states: Currently, Schedule 4 of the noise by -law exempts the following: 4. Incidental noise from any activity of the City or the Regional Municipality of Niagara, their employees, agents or contractors, associated with the construction, repair, performance or maintenance of essential municipal services. It would seem reasonable to include Ontario Power Generation and ,even, Niagara Falls Hydro under this section of the by -law. Unfortunately, staff did not contemplate this at the time of drafting the by -law. Staff is proposing an amendment to the Noise Control By -law that will exempt the superior levels of government their agents or contractors that are engaged in the construction, repair, performance or maintenance of an essential public service. RECOMMENDATION: That Council approve the amendment to Noise Control By -law (2004 -105) listed under the by -law section of the agenda.

Highway 405 from QEW to the Queenston- Lewiston Border Crossing. Subject to confirmation of project funding, the MTO intends to tender this work to begin in June 2007 and will continue until November 2008. In addition, the Contractor's operations will be restricted in the Contract by traffic constraints that will limit the Contractor's ability to utilize some access points to off -peak periods only. It is anticipated that, in order to meet the above construction schedule under the operational constraints, the Contractor may choose to carry out some work at night. We, therefore, would request an exemption to the City of Niagara Falls Noise Control By -Law for this work. The construction at night will generally include embankment repairs on the Highway 405 /Stanley Avenue W -N /S Ramp. Other night works on the Highway 405, within the limits of the City of Niagara Falls, also include the following activities: Highway 405 Concrete base repair and hot mix paving, 8.2 km 0 Structural bridge rehabilitations at St. Paul Avenue twin overpass (eastbound and westbound structures) Roadside safety improvements Ground mounted sign replacements (9) and new ground mounted signs (2) The use of machinery at night will include: Saw cutting machine Trucks, backhoe and crane Milling machine 2655 North Sheridan Way, Suite 280, Mississauga, Ontario L5K 2P8 (905) 823 -4988 fax (905) 823 -2669 www.ecoplans.com e -mail: ecoplans @ecoplans.com Although the Contractor's working hours can not be predetermined at this time we request that works be permitted between 7:00 p.m. on any day to 7:00 a.m. the following day, Monday to Friday; and 7:00 p.m. on any day to 9:00 a.m. the following day, for Saturday.

This requirement is necessary because of two factors. Firstly, the Corporation requires operating funds so as to meet its financial obligations. In addition to the requirement for its own operating needs, the Corporation must also meet its statutory obligations for collecting taxes on behalf of the Region of Niagara and the local school boards. The statutory requirement of the City is to provide quarterly payments to both the Region of Niagara and the local school boards. Both of these factors necessitate the interim tax levy. Failure to provide an interim tax levy will lead to increased borrowing by the Corporation and will result in increased interest expenses. An interim tax levy is required to ensure the provision of the required funds to minimize borrowing costs. The authority to collect this interim tax levy is prescribed in section 317 of the Municipal Act. The interim tax levy is subject to the following rules: 1. The amount levied on a property shall not exceed the prescribed percentage, or 50 percent if no percentage is prescribed, of the total amount of taxes for municipal and school purposes levied on the property for the previous year. 2. The percentage used in the levy may be different for different classes but must be the same for all prope ies in a property class. 0 Queen Street, PO, Box 1023, Niagara Falls, ON, Canada L2E 6X5 905 -356 -7521 www.niagarafalls.ca Corporate Services Department Finance February 5, 2007 2 F- 2007 -04 3. Allows the municipality to use an entire years taxes for a property in the calculation of the interim tax levy in the situation that a full year was not charged in the previous year. Staff has developed the interim tax levy based on these rules and has determined that the amount due for the interim levy for each property will not exceed 50% of the annualized assessment used in determining the 2006 City tax levy. The due dates for this interim tax levy are in accordance with the new Municipal Act. The interim bill will be due on two dates. As per the regulations outlined in the new Municipal Act, property owners must be provided 21 days notice before payment. The due dates are consistent with the regulation and will be February 28, 2007 and April 30, 2007. In 2006, these dates were February 28, 2006 and April 28, 2006. An interim levying by -law is required to establish the amount of the interim levy. This has been prepared and appears on this evening's Council Agenda for passage. Recommended by: AF:jd K. E.

BACKGROUND: Niag ara alts CANADA L- 2007 -06 Part 2 as shown on Reference Plan 59R -9107 is a small strip of land located west of Stanley Avenue and northwest of Portage Road, as shown hatched on Attachment "1 This road is approximately 358.2 square meters in area. Legal Services has received a request from 1251600 Ontario Limited to permanently close the road and convey it to them so that it can be incorporated into their future development. The request was received November 23, 2006, and was circulated to all City departments, the result of which was that Staff had no objections to the road being permanently closed, declared surplus and conveyed to 1251600 Ontario Limited. The first step in proceeding to sale, given that this is an open road, is to permanently close the road, with any declaration of surplus or sale to follow the registration of that closure. As such, it is our recommendation that the road be permanently closed. 0 Queen Street, P.O.

Municipal Register of Heritage Properties Recent amendments to the Ontario Heritage Act require a municipality to keep a register of properties of cultural heritage value and interest. This register is to contain all designated properties and may also contain all properties believed to be of cultural heritage value and interest to the community. The register provides an open and accessible database ensuring information about our built and cultural heritage is available to all. Since the inception of the Municipal Heritage Committee (formerly LACAC) in the late 1970s, an Inventory of Heritage Resource Properties has been maintained as a registry. The registry is updated on a regular basis. To reflect changes in the Heritage Act and Provincial direction, this inventory should be adopted as the Register of Heritage Properties. The register is available on the City's website. A hard copy is attached for Council's information. Recommended by: PB:gd Attach.

That the changes to the 2006 Cemetery Fees, as specified in the attached Cemetery Fee Schedule, be approved effective March 1, 2007. 2. That following City Council's approval, the 2007 Cemetery Fee Schedule be forwarded to the Ministry of Consumer and Commercial Relations, Cemeteries Branch, for review and approval. In reviewing the recommended annual cemetery rates, a comparison with the fees of other cemeteries, including municipal, and private operators is undertaken. Approximately ten municipal cemeteries were surveyed recently to compare prices, including municipal cemeteries within the Niagara Region and a number of municipal cemeteries outside the region including Brampton, Oakville, Kitchener and Owen Sound. The recommended fees, as attached, reflect a 3.% overall increase for lot sales, interments and cemetery surcharges. Stamford Green Columbarium (cremation niches) fees reflect an increase of 8 consistent with the business plan to ensure these columbarium prices are increased, incrementally, overa five- yeartime line to be in line with the Fairview columbarium fees.
