BACKGROUND: David Hagerman has requested an amendment to Zoning By -law No. 79 -200 for a 662 square metre (7129 square foot) parcel of land known as 5007 River Road, as shown on Schedule 1. A two storey single detached dwelling and a detached garage exist on the property. The applicant proposes to use the existing dwelling as a cottage rental dwelling (rented to tourists for accommodation on a daily or weekly basis). Refer to Schedule 2 for details of the property. The land is currently zoned Residential Single Family and Two Family 2 (R2 -2) with special zoning provisions that would allow the dwelling to be used for bed and breakfast accommodations (tourist home). The R2 -2 zoning is requested to be amended site specifically to permit the existing dwelling to be used as a cottage rental dwelling, containing 4 bedrooms, and to reduce the required exterior side yard setback from 4.5 metres (15 feet) to 0 metres (0 feet) to recognize the existing building setback. Cottage rental dwellings are a relatively new form of tourist accommodation that are similar in scale to bed and breakfast accommodations. Where bed and breakfasts are typically owner occupied homes providing overnight guest accommodation and prepared breakfasts, cottage rental dwellings are complete dwellings (with kitchen facilities available for the preparation of meals) rented out to small groups of travellers. 023, Niagara Falls, ON, Canada 12E 6X5 905 -356 -7521 www.niagarafalls.ca Working Together to Serve Our Community ommunity Services Department Planning Development Surrounding Land Uses Although the surrounding residential community consists predominantly of single detached dwellings, there are numerous bed and breakfast establishments in the vicinity of the subject site, particularly on properties fronting onto River Road. There are also two nearby cottage rental dwellings, one several properties to the west at 4339 Bampfield Street and one several properties to the south at 5057 River Road, which were approved by Council in 2007. Circulation Comments May 12, 2008 2 PD- 2008 -38 Regional Municipality of Niagara No concerns. The application conforms to Provincial and Regional policies. Fire Services City Clerk The cottage rental dwelling is to be limited to 4 bedrooms, with a maximum occupancy of 2 persons per bedroom. Other Fire Services issues can be addressed at the licensing stage. The cottage rental dwelling is required to be licensed under the City Licensing By -law. Building and By -law Services A Change of Use Permit will not be required if the cottage rental dwelling does not exceed 4 bedrooms and is rented out in its entirety to a single group of travellers. Niagara Parks Commission, Parks, Recreation and Culture, Municipal Works, Transportation Services and Legal Services No objections. Planning Analysis 1. The proposal conforms to the Official Plan. The land is designated Residential in the Official Plan. Residential dwellings are intended to be the predominant land use. The land is also within the River Road Satellite Tourist District where bed and breakfast accommodations with up to four bedrooms for guests are permitted as long as the residential character of the area is maintained. Cottage rental dwellings have been permitted in the District where they were determined to be compatible with the surrounding neighbourhood. May 12, 2008 3 PD- 2008 -38 The proposed cottage rental dwelling conforms to the Official Plan as follows: CONCLUSION: A cottage rental dwelling is an alternative form of accommodation similar in scale to the bed and breakfast accommodations permitted by the Official Plan for this area. There are no changes proposed to the property and there is no expansion of the dwelling, therefore, the residential character of the property will be maintained. The cottage rental dwelling is not expected to generate any more traffic than a typical single detached dwelling. Provided the number of bedrooms in the dwelling is limited to four (the same limit of rooms that applies to bed and breakfast accommodations in this area), the scale of the use will not be increased, and the use of the dwelling as a cottage rental dwelling will be compatible with surrounding residences and other tourist accommodations that are already allowed. In recent years Council has approved several cottage rental dwellings in this neighbourhood. Given the special policies in the Official Plan and the area's proximity to tourist districts, a moderate concentration of small -scale accommodations of a residential character is acceptable for this area. Staff will continue to monitor the development of cottage rental dwellings in this neighbourhood to ensure that excessive concentrations do not impact the residential character of this neighbourhood. 2. The requested zoning is appropriate. The current R2 -2 zoning of this property applies to the entire area between Palmer Avenue and River Road, from Huron Street to John Street. Bed and Breakfast establishments (tourist homes) with up to four (4) bedrooms for guests are permitted as of right in this area. Similar to the guest rooms of a bed and breakfast, the cottage rental dwelling will be rented out on a short term basis to a small group of travelers. To ensure the cottage rental dwelling remains compatible with surrounding uses and consistent with the number of rentable rooms a bed and breakfast establishment is permitted to have, and to address Fire Services concerns, no more than four (4) bedrooms are recommended to be allowed to be used for overnight accommodation. As the Ontario Building Code limits occupancy to two (2) persons per bedroom, this would limit occupancy of the cottage rental to eight (8) persons. The requested amendment to permit the existing dwelling to be used as a cottage rental dwelling can be supported for the following reasons: May 12, 2008 4 PD- 2008 -38 1. The use complies with the Official Plan as it is in an area where small scale accommodations may be permitted. The use is of a residential nature, and is similar in scale to a bed and breakfast, which is already permitted. 2. Provided the cottage rental dwelling is limited to four (4) bedrooms, the use will be compatible with adjacent uses. Recommended by: Approved by: Respectfully submitted: A.Bryce:yb Attach.

Box 150, Niagara Falls, Ontario, Canada L2E 6T2 Web Site: www.niamarattarks.con General Manager Dear Andrew We are the owners of 5007 River Rd and we are interested in having the property rezoned so that we can use it as a vacation rental property(cottage rental). Our intention is to rent to one group of travellers. We have been doing the cottage rental business for .over 8 years. We have properties up north in Parry Sound and last year we bought a cottage rental property in Niagara on the Lake. The cottage in Niagara on the Lake is a property that is licensed by the city where building and fire inspections took place. The properties are in good standing with the city and the neighbours. We have strict regulations where we limit the number of people to use the property. In the north we regulate it because of the septic systems and in NOTL due to regulations as well as having a strict upkeep of the property. The purpose of this letter is to outline the proposed use of the property at 5007 River Rd. We would request the property be zoned for the use of up to 8 people. Our intention is not to rent out single rooms for daily or monthly use, rather the entire house for periods of 2 days or more to vacationers. The rooms will have 1 king size suite on the third level, and 3 queen rooms in the 2 floor, There will also be one room for a desk and chair. There is a living room, dining room, kitchen and the basement will be used for laundry facilities. The house has a special character to it that we have maintained and hope to attract a higher end clientele. In Niagara on the Lake we have an independent booking agent that helps us maintain the property and gets our bookings. We have a very successful working relationship in NOTL and Suzanne will be working with us in Niagara Falls. Bookings get done via telephone calls or the internet and are confirmed on line prior to arrival. Payments are made via credit card again prior to arrival. You may call Suzanne for references on how we deal with her and our properties. Suzanne Lefebre 905-468-8985 (niagararentaWsympatico.ca) We submit this letter for your consideration and further discussion.

Parcel 1 is zoned Residential Apartment 5B Density (R5B -227) with site specific provisions permitting the development of a 3 storey, 20 unit apartment building with a flat roof. The land known as 7175 -7189 Drummond Road is zoned Institutional (I) and is occupied by a place of worship and an associated parking area; the portion of this land behind 6209 -6311 McLeod Road, identified as Parcel 2 on Schedule 1, is vacant. The applicant is requesting a new site specific R5B zone be applied to Parcels 1 and Parcel 2 to permit a 3 storey, 24 unit apartment building, as shown on Schedule 2. A future severance application is required to sever Parcel 2 from 7175 and 7189 Drummond Road and merge it in title with Parcel 1. A site specific provision permitting an increase in height from 10 metres (32.8 feet) to 12.5 metres (41 feet) to accommodate the peaked roof is also requested. Due to the height of the peaked roof and the desire to construct the building with the same side yard setback as the approved apartment building with a flat roof, a reduction to the required westerly interior sid yard width is requested from 6.25 metres (20.5 feet) (one half the building hei metres (15.7 feet). 4310 Queen Street, P.O. Box 1023, Niagara Falls, ON, Canada L2E 6X5 905 356 -7521 www.niagarafails.ca Working Together to Serve Our Community Community Services Department Planning Development May 12, 2008 2 PD- 2008 -42 Surrounding Land Uses The property abuts single detached dwellings to the north and west. The properties to the west and south, although occupied by single detached dwellings, are zoned Transition Residential Multiple (TRM). The TRM zone acts as a holding zone that permits existing development until the lands are approved for multiple residential development. On the east is a place of worship and a motel. Circulation Comments Regional Municipality of Niagara No objections. The proposed development is supported under the Provincial Growth Plan, Provincial Policy Statement and the Regional Policy Plan, which all promote residential intensification and more affordable forms of housing. Municipal Works No objections. There are adequate services available for the proposed development. Servicing and grading details will be reviewed at the site plan stage. Transportation Services No objections. A traffic study is not required. Parks, Recreation and Culture No objections. Cash in lieu of park land will be required at the appropriate stage. Landscape details will be reviewed at the site plan stage. Building Services Fire Services All required Building Permits to be obtained prior to commencement of construction. No objections. Fire safety concerns can be addressed through the normal site plan review. Resident Comments One letter has been received, requesting adequate fencing to screen noise and lighting impacts, and citing concerns about grading and drainage. May 12, 2008 3 PD- 2008 -42 Planning Analysis 1. The proposed development supports Provincial policy initiatives. Recent changes to the Planning Act require City planning decisions to comply with Provincial policy documents. The Provincial Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe stipulates that by the year 2015, the City is to achieve 40% of new residential growth within the urban area. Additional infill projects similar to this one will be needed by 2015 for the City to reach the above noted intensification goal. 2. The requested amendment conforms to the Official Plan. The land is designated Residential by the Official Plan. Residential lands near Minor Commercial areas, schools and parks, with access on to an arterial road, such as the subject site, can be considered for apartment dwellings if compatible with surrounding development. Such apartments are to be limited in height to 4 to 6 storeys and limited to a maximum density of 100 units per hectare (40 units per acre). The requested amendment conforms to the Official Plan as follows: The proposed apartment building represents a minor expansion of a previously approved apartment building site. The height of the proposal (3 storeys) and its density of 70 units per hectare (28 units per acre) are within the height and density contemplated by the Official Plan for this site. As the site has direct access on to an arterial road (McLeod Road) local roads will not be impacted. The site abuts a Minor Commercial district to the east and is close to schools and parks. Transit services are available on McLeod Road which provide ready transportation to other parts of the City. Provided the changes recommended below are undertaken, the proposed development is compatible with surrounding development. The additional height is requested to accommodate a peaked roof feature to better reflect the character of the surrounding dwellings. Setbacks, in excess of 23 metres (76 feet), will be provided from the residential properties to the rear. The proposed development also reflects the general character of development along McLeod Road, which has a mix of single detached dwellings, townhouses, low rise apartment dwellings and commercial buildings. To better reflect the existing streetscape along McLeod Road and provide increased setbacks and extra buffering for dwellings to the rear, it is recommended the building be moved forward approximately 3 metres (10 feet) toward McLeod Road and the 2 parking spaces in front of the building be relocated to the rear yard. This will result in a landscaped front yard setback of May 12, 2008 4 PD- 2008 -42 10 metres (33 feet), equivalent to the dwelling to the west, and will provide additional room for parking, landscaping and amenity space in the rear yard. 3 The requested zoning is appropriate. The applicant has requested the R5B zone be applied to the whole of the land with site specific provisions to permit the development. This zone is appropriate for a development of this scale and density. Building height is measured to the top of the roof. As such, current zoning standards would allow the applicant to build a 3 storey apartment building with a flat roof. However, the applicant wishes to construct the building with a pitched roof (see Schedule 3 for elevations). The additional height required to accommodate the pitched roof is recommended as this will provide a design that is complementary to the surrounding single detached dwellings. It is recommended the amending by -law limit the building to three storeys while allowing this pitched roof design. The zoning by -law requires a side yard setback of one half the building height. If the proposed building were built with a flat roof, it would have a height of around 8.5 metres (28 feet) and an interior side yard of 4.25 metres (14 feet) would be required. Because the height of the building with a pitched roof is 12.5 metres (41 feet), a side yard setback of 625 metres (20.5 feet) is required. Instead of providing a 6.25 metre side yard, the applicant wishes to provide one side yard having the equivalent to a building having a flat roof. This is acceptable because a 3 storey building with a pitched roof is not expected to have any greater impacts than a building with a flat roof. In addition to the site specific side yard, several other special provisions should be included to achieve the proposed site design changes outlined earlier. The amending by -law should secure the following measures: A minimum rear yard setback of 25 metres (82 feet) and a maximum front yard setback of 10 metres (32.8 feet) to ensure the building is sited in the best location. The provision of a maximum front yard setback will provide for a building setback consistent with adjacent dwellings. Landscaped front and westerly side yards, to provide a pleasing streetscape and buffer lands to the west. A 3 metre (10 foot) wide landscaped open space strip between any parking and the rear lot line, to buffer residences to the rear. A 4.5 metre (15 foot) wide landscaped open space strip between any front yard parking and the front lot line. The landscaping can be readily provided with the proposed redesign recommended above. The applicant is in agreement with these improvements. May 12, 2008 5 PD- 2008 -42 4. Site Plan Control is applicable. At the site plan stage such matters as grading and servicing, landscaping and fencing, lighting and garbage facilities will be detailed and reviewed. The site plan agreement will ensure surrounding properties are not adversely impacted by the grading of the subject site, and that lighting for the development does not project on to surrounding properties. CONCLUSION: The proposed Zoning By -law amendment can be supported for the following reasons: It conforms to Provincial policies and with the Official Plan policies that apply to the area. The requested increase in height to accommodate a pitched roof design will not increase impacts on the neighbouring properties. Incorporating site specific zoning provisions will ensure the greatest degree of compatibility.

Mr. Andrew Bryce City ofNiagara Falls, Planning Development 4310 Queen Street, PO Box 1023, Niagara 'Falls, Ontario, Canada L2E 6X5 Dear Mr. Bryce, PLANNING DEVELOPMENT I'm writing to express my concerns in the development of the twenty-four unit apartment complex just west and adjacent to 6247 McLeod Road. I've been a resident of 6312 Hawkins Street for 54 years and throughout that time the property behind my home had been left unused and water from my property had drained into a catch basin on that vacant lot. My concerns are as follows: Concern number one is that the noise and the lights from the cars and homes to be built behind my home will be disruptive to me and my yard. I would like to ask for the construction of a solid fence of at least ten feet at the back of my property, the idea of this being to deflect any headlights, or noise associated with closing doors and running engines. My second concern is the drain that is situated behind my home where the water from my yard currently runs, is situated where the proposed parking lot will be placed. I want to be assured that if the parking lot is raised the water will not pool at the base of my property. I request that a catch basin be placed at the property line or that new parking lot to be placed at or below my existing grade level. Signed, F. G. Martin I do not oppose the construction of this project if my concerns are addressed. 6312 Hawkins Street Niagara Falls, Ontario L2G 3135 May 12, 2008 His Worship Mayor Ted Salci and Members of the Municipal Council City of Niagara Falls, Ontario Members: Re: PD- 2008 -44 26CD -11- 2008 -01, Draft Plan of Condominium (Conversion) 5521 Drummond Road (West Side), South of Frederica Street Owner: Skyview Drum Apts. Ltd. (Angela lannuzziello) RECOMMENDATION: 1. That the Plan of Condominium be draft approved subject to the conditions in the attached Appendix. 2. That the Mayor or designate be authorized to sign the draft plan as "approved" 20 days after notice of Council's decision has been given as required by the Planning Act, provided no appeals of the decision have been lodged. 3. That draft approval be given for three years, after which approval will lapse unless an extension is requested by the developer and granted by Council. 4. That the Mayor and City Clerk be authorized to execute the Condominium Agreement and any required documents to allow for the future registration of the condominium when all matters are addressed to the satisfaction of the City Solicitor. BACKGROUND: Nice ara cells CANADA PD- 2008 -44 The applicant proposes to convert the existing 56 -unit rental apartment to a condominium. The plan of condominium subdivision will permit the individual ownership of each unit with the common areas (e.g., hallways, driveways and open space) shared by the condominium corporation. There is no new construction proposed. The property is on the west side of Drummond Road, south of Frederica Street as shown on Schedule 1. The building layout, open space and parking /driveway areas are illustrated on Schedule 2. There are no public meeting or notification requirements for condominium conversion applications under the Planning Act. However, in accordance with City procedures, Staff provided notice of this Council meeting to consider the application to the tenants of the units for information and as a courtesy. The owner has also advised that information was provided to the tenants regarding the proposed condominium conversion. 4310 Q een;Street, P.Q. Box 1023, Niagara Fails, ON, Canada 2E 6X5 905- 356 -7521 www.niagarafalls.ca Working Together to Serve Our Community Community Services Department Planning Development May 12, 2008 2 PD- 2008 -44 Provincial Landlord and Tenant Legislation The Residential Tenancies Act (2006) is the Provincial legislation applicable to all landlord and tenant matters. This Act contains specific sections to protect existing tenants in cases of condominium conversions. Tenants cannot be evicted due to a conversion and have the right of first refusal to purchase a converted unit. Municipal Rental Housing Policies The City's Official Plan states that rental accommodation shall be protected and discourages the conversion of rental units to condominiums when the vacancy rate is below three percent. Although tenants' rights are protected by Provincial legislation, the removal of rental units should not adversely affect the supply of affordable rental housing in the municipality. The most current vacancy rate information available from Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC) is from the survey conducted in October 2007. The data indicates a vacancy rate of 3.2% for all surveyed apartment units in Niagara Falls. The City -wide rate has decreased from 5.1% in 2006, but the CMHC figures exceed the Official Plan three percent vacancy rate threshold. Although it is desirable to maintain existing rental accommodation, the removal of these units should not have an adverse impact on the City's overall rental housing supply. The building contains 34 one bedroom apartments and 22 units with two bedrooms. The applicant not yet established the estimated selling prices for the proposed condominium units. However, it is anticipated the unit prices would provide additional affordable housing within the City. Regional Rental Housing Policies The Region's Policy Plan states that Regional Council will not support the conversion of rental housing to condominium ownership if the supply of affordable rental housing will be adversely affected a vacancy rate of three percent or more is considered desirable for a healthy rental market. The vacancy rate throughout the major urban centres of Niagara is 4.0% for all apartment units. On this basis, the Region is not opposed to the conversion of these apartment units. However, the Region notes that the vacancy rate in Niagara Falls has declined considerably over the past year. Regional Planning staff advise that there could be future impacts on the supply of rental housing in the City if the downward trend in the vacancy rate continues. Site Assessment The apartment development was constructed in two phases. The 3- storey section at the rear of the land was built in 1963 and the 4- storey portion near Drummond Road was built in 1973. These apartments were constructed in compliance with Zoning By -law provisions in place at that time and a site plan that has since expired. The property is currently zoned Residential Apartment 5B Density (R5B) in accordance with Zoning By -law No. 79 -200. Although compatibility with the surrounding properties has been established over the years, the condominium conversion process provides the opportunity to achieve site improvements in keeping with current development standards and to formally recognize acceptable zoning by -law deficiencies. May 12,2008 -3 Building Permit records for the apartment no longer exist. A staff review of available information indicates that 55 apartment units were in the building when the 1979 zoning by -law was passed (11 units in the first building and 44 units in the larger building including 4 basement units that were listed starting in 1975). Information submitted with the application states that 5 units are now in the basement for a total of 56 units. This number of units does not comply with the minimum lot area requirements of the R5B zone. Regardless of rental or ownership, compliance with zoning and construction safety standards for the extra unit is needed. The existing development provides 63 parking spaces for the 56 apartment units whereas the current zoning would require 78 spaces. The submitted plan proposes additional parking in an attempt to satisfy the zoning standard. However, the proposed driving aisles do not meet the width requirement and several of the spaces would potentially interfere with garbage truck movements. The applicant advises that there is sufficient parking on the site for residents /visitors and that no complaints have been received. The property is also near a transit route and shopping. Staff is satisfied that the parking situation can be recognized through a variance application. A plan showing the existing layout and dimensions of the spaces and driving aisles is needed to determine if a minor redesign is possible and the extent of the variances. The height of the 4- storey section (11.65 metres /38.2 feet) and minimum north side yard width (5.35 metres /17.6 feet) do not satisfy the current zoning provisions and should also be addressed through variances. Private waste collection service is provided. The garbage container is north of the building near the east end of the parking garage and stored in the open. An enclosure is required to screen the garbage area from residents and abutting properties. The Region requests a condition to formally advise purchasers that the site does not satisfy the Region's policy for waste collection. Minor driveway aisle changes may be needed for fire access to the north side of the building. Privacy fencing would normally be required along the west limit of the parking area next to the rear yard of the abutting residence. However, there are existing trees that could be impacted by fencing installation. The land is within an old plan of subdivision (prior to typical parkland requirements) and cash -in -lieu of parkland dedication based on the raw land value is requested as permitted by the Planning Act. CONCLUSION: The proposed conversion of the existing apartment development to condominium ownership can be supported. The rights of the current tenants will be safeguarded through the requirements of the Residential Tenancies Act. The condominium will provide additional affordable priced units to the housing market. The requested conditions of approval are listed in the Appendix. Recommended by: Approved by: Respectfully submitted: R.Wiison:gd Attach.

(Mark Basciano) RECOMMENDATION: 1. That Council approve the application for a Rehabilitation Grant, subject to meeting the program requirements including entering into an agreement with the City. 2. That the Mayor and Clerk be authorized to execute the related agreement. BACKGROUND: Niag ara alts CANADA The City has received a Rehabilitation Grant Application under its Brownfield Community Improvement Plan for the former Triebacher Schleifmittel Manufacturing Plant along the west side of Stanley Avenue, north of Thorold Stone Road. The property is currently vacant and 19.5 acres in size. The property has been subject to a series of severance applications which will divide the property into five parcels for future light industrial use which could include such uses as a contractors office, light manufacturing and assembly, and a wholesale business. One of the conditions attached to the approval of each severance is the preparation of a Record of Site Condition which will be prepared following the successful remediation of the land. A location map is shown in Appendix 1 and a site plan showing the lots to be created and potential buildings is attached as Appendix 2. The former industrial use produced silicon carbide and aluminum oxide used in manufacturing of abrasives. Approximately 13,550 cubic metres of soil with concentrations of PAH's, petroleum hydrocarbons and heavy metals will be removed from the site.

Box 1( ara Falls, ON, Canada L2E 6X5 945 356 -7521 www.niagarafalls.ca Working Together to Serve Our Community Community Services Department Planning Development May 12, 2008 The intent of the Rehabilitation Grant Program is to provide a financial incentive in the form of an annual grant for up to 10 years to help offset the costs of remediation, rehabilitation and redevelopment of the brownfield property. The payment of the Rehabilitation Grant occurs following redevelopment, reassessment and payment of the first year of the reassessed tax amount. The amount of grant provided is based upon the actual remediation and other eligible costs and the maximum amount cannot exceed the estimates provided in the application. The Region who is a partner in the redevelopment of brownfields will share in the payment of the grant proportionally. There is a significant economic benefit with the redevelopment of the subject site. Not only will the large property be remediated to a desirable standard that will permit light industrial development, there will be new buildings constructed and the creation of dozens of new jobs. CONCLUSION: This application represents the City's first Rehabilitation Grant received under the Brownfield CIP. The remediation and redevelopment of the former Triebacher Schleifmittel site will be of great benefit to the City by cleaning a site that has been Tying idle and derelict for a number of years in a prime gateway location in the City. Based upon the above, staff recommends approval of the Rehabilitation Grant Application for 3807 Stanley Avenue.

Board Attendance Tish and Ethel had communicated to Fran that they would be unable to attend this meeting. 2008 Budget Discussion: Tax levy from the city is the same as last year actual. Bell cannot implement their Single Reach phone in Niagara Region. Victor is trying to find another provider. Therefore he suggests leaving the $500 in the budget. There is currently no deadline for the new website. Concern was expressed that we have already lost one year and it needs to be in place for this season. Victor is developing the timeline and estimates it will be ready in 2 to 3 months, this year for sure. It is important that he does his homework properly and not rush the project, but it is a priority. Vaxxine is our current host supplier and the new member website is being developed by another company Webnet Logics. The graphics on our current website are outdated and need to be revised. Motion by Ross to accept the budget as presented.

Rick Gosling City Advisor As in every other community in Ontario, Seniors are the fastest growing segment of your constituency. And this growth is not in Ontario alone. The trend to older populations is a worldwide phenomenon. With the rise in numbers, we are also seeing a rise in cases of Elder Abuse. As you know, Elder Abuse takes a number of forms, ranging from financial exploitation and neglect to psychological and even physical harm. Like other forms of abuse, Elder Abuse is abetted by silence. A community that is unaware of the causes and the nature of Elder Abuse and is not exploring possible means of prevention and redress is putting its Seniors at risk. Community awareness is a critical first step to ending Elder Abuse. For the past five years, Toronto Residents In Partnership has taken up challenge to have municipalities across the Province recognize the signs and consequences of Elder Abuse. At TRIP's invitation, the City of Toronto was the first city in the world to proclaim an Elder Awareness Month in June 2002. The numbers today continue to grow. Won't you join the mayors and councils across the beyond and the GTA to officially proclaim June Elder Abuse Awareness Month in your community? Toronto Residents In Partnership is a not- for profit organization whose members are dedicated to the promotion of racial, ethnic, religious and communal understanding, co- operation and harmony. We would be happy to offer our support and our assistance in publicizing your community's participation in this initiative. North York Civic Centre, 5100 Yonge Street, Lower Level, Toronto, ON.

Liberty Street as shown on Plan 35 (also known as Gladstone Avenue) is a small strip of land road allowance located between two private properties, neither of which is used as a `road', as shown hatched on Appendix "A" attached. This road allowance runs from Stamford Avenue to Highway 420 and is 42.672 metres or 140 feet in length and approximately 521 square metres in total size. Legal Services has received requests to permanently close the road allowance and convey it from both of the abutting land owners. The road allowance is currently subject to a Licence Agreement with Vann Outdoor Advertising dated January 14, 1994 for the purpose of erecting a sign and is attached as Appendix "B This Licence Agreement which is without an expiry date provides for the right by the City to terminate it on 30 days written notice. No notice to terminate has as yet been issued with respect to that Licence Agreement, however there is ample time prior to the completion of any sale within which to provide such notice. Working Together to Serve Our Community Clerks Finance Human Resources Information Systems Legal Planning Development ti4 MIL H Z W V April 24, 2006 2 L- 2006 -09 These requests have been received since February 20, 2006, and have been circulated to all City departments, the result of which was that Staff had no objections to the road allowance being permanently closed, declared surplus and conveyed. The first step in proceeding to sale, given that this is an open road allowance, 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 subject lands be permanently closed. Recommended by: ren I. Kelly City Solicitor Approved by: T.

BACKGROUND: Niag ara ails C A N A D A The Niagara Regional Police coordinate the Emergency 911 event at Oakes Park each year for elementary schools. The goal is to educate the children on the various essential emergency services. In 2007, approximately 800 children participated in this event. This year, the Niagara Regional Police are working with the Canadian Armed Forces to bring a CH -146 Griffon SAR (Search and Rescue) Aircraft to the event. The aircraft will be landing at Oakes Park at 8:00 a.m. on Wednesday, June 4, 2008, and departing at 2:00 p.m. The Niagara Regional Police will circulate notices to the residents surrounding Oakes Park notifying them of the event and the arrival of the aircraft at 8:00 a.m. In the Niagara Region, this same aircraft has landed at A.N. Myer, Westlane, St. Michael and Beamsville high schools for Career Day events. These events were very successful and there were no reported issues. The Canadian Armed Forces has received approval from Transport Canada to enter this restricted air space. The Canadian Armed Forces personnel do a sweep of the property for FOD, (Foreign Objects and Debris) that can become airborne prior to the arrival of the aircraft. The children will all be kept out of the park area until the aircraft has landed. As requested by the City's insurance company, the Region of Niagara will be adding the City of Niagara Falls to its aviation policy as an additional insured and a written agreement with the Region with a ro. ndemnit provision to protect the City of Niagara Falls will g P Y P p Y g Road, Unit 1,Niagara Falls ON, Canada L2H 3N3 905- 356 -7521 www.niagarafalls.ca be prepared.

This report was brought forward to the HR Committee on April 14, 2008 and is now presented for the information of Council. BACKGROUND: According to the Provincial government, municipalities pay more than $100 million in Workers Compensation costs each year. In Ontario, 1,800 employees each week lose time from work due to workplace accidents and injuries. There are more than 300 deaths that occur in the workplace each year. The cost to Ontario workplaces and communities of these accidents and injuries is immeasurable and creates enormous personal pain and hardship to employers, workers and their families. Research indicates that many of these accidents and injuries may be preventable. As Council is aware, The Workplace Safety and Insurance Board has launched a new initiative to seek cooperation from municipalities to improve its awareness and commitment to workplace health and safety practices. Following the presentation from the Honourable Steven Mahoney, Chair of the Workplace Insurance and Safety Board, Council approved a "Community Charter" on March 17, 2008 to visibly demonstrate this commitment within our community. The City of Niagara Falls, as an important employer within our community, must improve its own health and safety record and practices. Evidence to this fact was provided by the Ministry of Labour in December 2007, who informed the City that it is being designated as a "High Risk" employer. This is based on analysis of lost time injury rates for almost 700 public sector employers. During.. the period from 2004 -2006, The City of Niagara Falls averaged more than 300 lostime injury days per year and $33,000 per WSIB claim, compared with the indust ge of approximately $7,000 per claim. 4310 Queen Stree ox 1023, Niagara Falls, ON, Canada L2E 6X5 905 -356 -7521 www.niagarafalls.ca Working Together to Serve Our Community Corporate Services Department Human Resources May 12, 2008 2 HR- 2008 -01 During this three -year period, the Corporation's costs for WSIB averaged more than $600,000 per year. The WSIB costs for 2007 were even higher, exceeding more than $2 million. This increase was due to three expensive WSIB claims resulting from new and retroactive "presumptive legislation" for firefighters and the additional costs associated with Niagara Transit. Although no life threatening injuries and only one injury reported as "critical" during the 2004 -2006 period, at an average of 20 days lost time per claim, WSIB claims within the Corporation have resulted in workplace injuries and illnesses that were more permanent and longer -term in nature. Better claims management and injury prevention practices may have also helped to mitigate these costs and facilitate earlier return to work programs. The Ministry of Labour is conducting workplace inspections at various City locations over the coming months. It has already resulted in fifteen administrative orders including a workplace violence risk assessment, mandatory training on hazardous materials, an asbestos inventory on all facilities, and compliance orders on internal workplace inspections. In the City of St. Catharines, a similar exercise has resulted in more than 100 work orders. Failure to comply with these orders and /or Ministry of Labour guidelines under the Occupational Health and Safety Act, can lead to fines for individuals and the Corporation, including the criminal prosecution of employees, supervisors, directors and senior staff. In recognition of the need for better claims management and an improved health and safety culture, the Human Resources division restructured the Health and Safety function in October 2007. This change led to the hiring of a new Claims Coordinator and Health Services Specialist who will focus on return to work programs, preventive safety measures, training and workplace wellness. WSIB Statistical Overview For the period of 2004 -2006, the following is an overview of the most common injuries and illnesses resulting in compensable lost time for the Corporation. The data does demonstrate the importance of preventive training and education in areas such as ergonomics, slips /falls and material handling: City of Niagara Falls (WSIB Claims) Location 2004 2005 Low Back/Torso Arm/Shoulder/Hand Head /Neck Leg Ankle 12 10 11 21 20 11 2006 19 25 15 10 critical injury is defined in the OH &S Act as an injury of a serious nature that places life in jeopardy, produces unconsciousness, substantial loss of blood, fracture /amputation of a leg, arm, hand or foot, Loss of sight, bums to major portion of the body. May 12, 2008 3 HR- 2008 -01 The following is a breakdown, by City divisions, of those who reported health and safety incidents over this three -year period. While Fire Services reported the highest number of incidents, this may also be a result of better documentation and improved reporting systems to record and track incidents within this division. City of Niagara Falls (Reported Health Safety Incidents) Division Fire Streets Garage Parks (Forestry) Parking/Traffic 2004 52 2005 16 2006 37 12 12 SUMMARY: By reconfirming its commitment to build healthier and safer workplaces within the City of Niagara Falls, Council has supported the Ministry's efforts to develop and adopt a "Community Charter The Corporation can be a model employer by demonstrating its leadership and renewed commitment to workplace health and safety. With Council's support, staff deems health and safety as an important and immediate priority and will take the appropriate action to improve the record of health and safety within the Corporation.

The direct and indirect cost to the Ontario economy amounts to a staggering $15 billion annually. Ontario municipalities paid more than $100 M WSIB costs last year. More importantly, the social and emotional costs of a devastating workplace incident on the families, friends and neighbours in our communities are incalculable. Based on simple and effective principles, this Charter affirms a municipality's commitment to building safer workplaces for their employees and providing leadership for the employers and families in their communities.

That staff be directed to proceed with the installation of temporary traffic signals at the intersection of Victoria Avenue and the Niagra River Parkway in cooperation with the Niagara Parks Commission, 2. and further that the ownership of the existing storm outlet for Victoria Avenue be secured via an easement through Niagara Parks Commission lands. Municipal Works and Planning Department staff have been working with staff from the Niagara Parks Commission to resolve potential traffic impacts that may occur as a result of recent development activities near the Victoria Avenue/Niagara Parkway intersection. The results of a traffic impact study indicate that various road and intersection improvements will be required upon the completion of the Great Wolf Lodge, Ripley's Aquarium and other local developments. Improvements include but are not limited to the addition of through, left/right turning lanes, signalization and road realignment within the corridor bound by Whirlpool Road, Niagara River Parkway, Victoria Avenue and Bridge Street. The Great Wolf Lodge is scheduled to open this spring, while the Aquarium is tentatively scheduled for completion in 2007. Although other developments in the area have been tentatively proposed, formal applications have not yet been received. Overall improvements will ensure that the level of service of operation is satisfactory given the projected volumes in 2015 including the traffic generated by the developments. It is anticipated that all improvements will be needed on or around 2015, however, the staging of improvements will be dependant on development proposals.

In past years, there have been requests from fire fighting personnel to become actively involved in selection and purchasing process of fire apparatus. Approximately four years ago, we began a lengthy process of appointing an apparatus committee composed of interested individuals from our suppression section, mechanical section and Supply and Services section. Our committee became educated through product research, meetings with mechanics and manufacturers, attending trade shows and benefiting from internal expertise and experience. The recommendation is a result of a teamwork and cooperation to achieve the best vehicle that meets our needs given budgetary considerations. The specifications design process focused on safety of personnel within the vehicle while responding and while operating the vehicle at emergency scenes. Pumper trucks are our primary response vehicles within the fire department. They perform water pumping through multiple lines, carry quantities of various size of hose and have equipment storage for a variety of response types. A pumper was approved and ordered in 2007. Included in that tender document was the provision to purchase an additional pumper truck, which has been identified for the 2008 Capital budget. There was no commitment to the second vehicle purchase, but the manufacturer initiated production of the second vehicle in order to realize production efficiencies. This also secured pricing for Niagara Falls with a strong Canadian dollar at that time. An estimated date for the 2008 Capital budget approval of February was provided to the manufacturer. With this in mind, vehicle modifications specific to the Niagara Falls truck could be held off until approval was completed. The extended budget approval process this year creates a situation where the _manufacturer needs to finish the vehicle and requires a commitment without furth 4310 Queen Street, P.O.

The City of Niagara Falls, like other municipalities that are experiencing growth in their residential sector, has been repeatedly asked by the development community to reduce the road allowance widths in new "greenfield development" projects to improve land use efficiencies and accommodate higher densities that are being encouraged by the Province. The Warren Woods Plan of Subdivision is one of these projects where the City's standard road cross section creates some challenges. Our current 23 meter wide road cross section was designed to handle traffic volumes that would be typical for a collector road with provisions for transit vehicles and on- street parking. Our current 20 meter wide road allowance is suitable for a local road function. Staff has been asked to consider a hybrid of the two road cross sections that effectively combines the benefits of the two current standards but reduces the boulevard width by 0.925 meters on each side. This reduction can be achieved by incorporating a joint utility trench alignment and shifting the sidewalk closer to the roadway. This new cross section will still permit a paved roadway width of 9.15 meters which is sufficient to handle transit vehicles and on- street parking. The only drawback from the reduction of the boulevard width may be that there could be less room for snow storage. While this standard is a departure from our past practice, staff has carefully reviewed the matter with Transportation Services Planning and Operations staff and has reviewed the matter with the various uti r tat install their plant in the municipal road allowance. This new standard will pro alternative to the development community and is consistent Been Street, P.O.
