That Council approve the Official Plan and Zoning By-law Amendment application: (a) to protect environmentally sensitive lands; (b) to apply more contemporary zoning regulations for the Montrose Business Park; and (c) to update the schedules which illustrate industrial areas where adult entertainment parlours and body rub parlours may be allowed, all as discussed in this report. 2. That Council adopt the Official Plan amendment and pass the two zoning by-laws on tonight's agenda to implement the changes. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This is a staff initiated Official Plan and Zoning By-law amendment to protect environmentally sensitive lands, to provide more contemporary zoning regulations to guide the development of the Montrose Business Park and to ensure the schedules contained in Zoning By-law No. 79-200 properly illustrate where adult entertainment parlours and body rub parlours are permitted. The application can be approved for the following reasons: significant natural areas in Montrose Business Park will be protected through the proposed Official Plan policies and zoning regulations; the proposed Business Park zoning conforms with the City's Official Plan with respect to industrial development and will facilitate the development of a high quality business park; and the housekeeping changes to the schedules illustrating where adult entertainment parlours and body rub parlours are permitted to locate will remove those lands from the schedules which can no longer be considered for these uses because of recent amendments to the City's Official Plan and Zoning By-law. January 25, 2010 - 2 - PD-2010-01 BACKGROUND Proposal Council deferred this application at its November 16, 2009 meeting so that the application could be revised to include an Official Plan Amendment as well as a zoning amendment for the environmentally sensitive areas. Montrose Business Park -Environmental Lands Changes are proposed to the Official Plan designations and the site specific zoning of Montrose Business Park to place Provincially Significant Wetlands and a natural corridor under an Environmental Protection Area designation and zoning. The Montrose Business Park is designated Industrial, in part, and Environmental Protection Area, in part, by the Official Plan and is zoned Prestige Industrial (PI-278), in part, and Hazard Land (HL) in part, in accordance with a by-law passed in 1992. The portion of the Business Park affected by the wetland and the natural corridor will be placed under the Environmental Protection Area designation in the Official Plan and a new Environmental Protection Area (EPA) zone to protect these areas from disturbance. The location of the Montrose Business Park is shown on Schedule 1 and the zone boundaries are shown on Schedule 2. Montrose Business Park -Prestige Industrial Lands Changes are also proposed to the site specific PI-278 zoning that affects Montrose Business Park to introduce contemporary zoning terminology and regulations. Updates to Schedules in By-law No. 79-200 That Illustrate Where Adult Entertainment Parlours and Body Run Parlours Are Permitted As a housekeeping measure, these schedules are proposed to be updated to remove former industrial lands that have been redesignated and rezoned for residential use and industrial lands that are now within 300 metres (1000 feet) of these new residential areas, in accordance with the required separation distances in the Official Plan. In addition, industrial areas where adult entertainment and body rub parlours are not a permitted use are proposed to be removed from these schedules. The lands which could be used for these uses are shown on Schedule 3. This amendment makes no changes to where these uses are actually permitted but is proposed to ensure. readers of the by-law are not mislead by the out of date schedules. Circulation Comments Information regarding the proposed zoning by-law amendment was circulated to City divisions, the Region, agencies and the public for comments. The following summarizes the comments received to date: Regional Municipality of Niagara No objections to the proposed Montrose Business Park zoning. The zoning will facilitate the development of the Business Park while protecting natural heritage features. January 25, 2010 - 3 - PD-2010-01 The By-law Schedules illustrating where adult entertainment parlours and body rub parlours are permitted includes areas that have natural heritage features. These areas should be zoned Environmental Protection Area. (Note: This will be undertaken either as part of the City's comprehensive zoning review which is on-going or the secondary plan process). Niagara Peninsula Conservation Authority No objections to placing Provincially Significant Wetlands under an Environmental Protection Area designation and zoning. A small tributary and significant woodlands lie on the balance of the subject lands. Future s#udies may need to be completed to determine that there will be no significant negative impact on these environmental features prior to development. Transportation Services No objections. The proposed parking rates for the business park are similar to Institute of Transportation Engineers Parking Generation Rates. Municipal Works, Building and By-law Services, Fire Services and Legal Services No objections. ANALYSIS Official Plan The lands are designated Industrial, in part, and Environmental Protection Area, in part. Industrial areas are intended for a wide range of industrial uses. The Official Plan directs that zones be established that group together businesses with similar characteristics, such as prestige type businesses. Environmental Protection Area lands are to be maintained in their natural state. In addition, development is prohibited in natural areas such as significant wetlands, regardless of the land use designation. The proposed Environmental Protection Area designation is intended to protect significant natural areas in the Park. These areas were identified in a study completed by the City's environmental consultant (Lisa Campbell and Associates). The study identifies a Provincially Significant Wetland and a natural corridor to provide for wildlife movement between wetland areas, as natural areas that should be protected. Currently only the main branch of Warren Creek is protected under the Environmental Protection Area designation. As such, a proposed designation will protect a larger area which is identified as a significant natural area. The Official Plan's Natural Resources policies already mandates the protection of significant environmental features regardless of land use designation. However, placing the subjeot natural lands under an Environmental Protection Area designation (rather than leaving them under an Industrial designation) communicates to the public and prospective purchasers of lots in the Park the location of the environmental lands that are to be protected. January 25, 2010 - 4 - PD-2010-01 Montrose Business Park -Environmental Protection Area (EPA) Zone The proposed EPA zone corresponds to the same area as the proposed Environmental Protection Area designation. To ensure that Official Plan, Regional and Provincial .policies requiring the protection of natural areas are adhered to, the proposed 'EPA zone is more limited in uses permitted than the current HL zone, limiting the use of land to a recreational trail. A properly designed recreational trail will not impact on the natural areas. Although the environmental study was completed in 2005, the determination of the layout of the lots was not completed until recently. With the completion of the lot layout it is now possible to establish the final zone boundaries. Comments from the Niagara Peninsula Conservation Authority (NPCA) indicate there may be additional woodlands and an intermittent watercourse outside the proposed EPA designation and zone. These areas were not identified as being significant in the aforementioned study. It is recommended that future site plan applications in the park be reviewed by NPCA to determine the need for a further Environmental Impact Study or Tree Saving Plan. Montrose Business Park -Proposed Prestige Industrial Zone The current zoning (introduced in 1992) restricts uses to prestige and light industrial type uses, research and development facilities, publishing and printing establishments and complementary commercial uses. In accordance with Official Plan policies, these uses are similar in nature and character. The proposed by-law simplifies the terminology used for permitted uses, using such terms as "office" and "production and data processing establishment" to reduce the number of terms used. To focus on business development and eliminate any conflicts with planned commercial areas, certain commercial uses such as home improvement warehouse retail outlets, new car agencies, personal service shops, banks, restaurants and health centres have been deleted. To ensure the Business Park is developed to a high standard with quality aesthetics as envisioned by the Official Plan, the current by-law establishes minimum lot and building areas and implements generous building setback and landscape requirements. These standards have been retained in the new by-law. Mapping Delineating Where Adult Entertainment Parlours and Body Rub Parlours are Permitted To minimize adverse impacts on more sensitive land uses and to avoid exposure of these uses to families and children, adult entertainment parlours and body rub parlours are restricted to industrially zoned lands provided the properties are located a minimum of 300 metres (984 feet) from residential, institutional, open space and other similar community/institutional uses, and a minimum of 100 metres (328 feet) from a controlled access highway. These requirements were implemented in 2002, by incorporating schedules into By-law No. 79-200 that illustrate which industrially zoned lands meet the above noted setbacks and can be used for adult entertainment parlours and body rub parlours. a Since 2002, certain industrial areas have been rezoned for residential and open space purposes including the Fernwood Subdivision (north of Lundy's Lane west of Garner Road ), the Thundering Waters Golf Course and associated residential development and Warren Woods residential lands south of the hydro corridor. To reflect these changes, Schedule "C" January 25, 2010 - 5 - PD-2010-01 should be updated to delete these areas to reflect the associated separation distances. I n addition, adult entertainment parlours and body rub parlours were never permitted in the Montrose Business Park due to the prestige business oriented image and therefore this area should also be deleted from Schedule "C". Schedule 3 of this report illustrates the areas which will be deleted from Schedule "C" as a housekeeping change, while Schedule 4 illustrates the industrial areas where adult entertainment parlours and body rub parlours will still be permitted. The Regional Municipality of Niagara has noted that Schedule 4 illustrates some lands where significant natural features exist and requests these areas be deleted from Schedule "C" of By-law No. 79-200. These features are located within Warren Woods (west of the QEW between McLeod Road and Brown Road) and the Thundering Waters areas, both of which have been approved by Council to develop for residential purposes. Secondary Plans are underway which will accurately delineate the natural areas and guide the future zoning for these areas. It is best to deal with the Region's request at the time of establishing zoning for the Warren Woods and Thundering Waters neighbourhoods. CITY'S STRATEGIC COMMITMENT The new zoning for Montrose Business Park will assist in providing a setting to attract businesses and therefore, will support Council's strategic priority of promoting economic development in the City.

That Council approve the Official Plan and Zoning By-law amendment application to redesignate and rezone Parcel 1 Residential and a site specific Residential Low Density, Grouped Multiple Dwellings (R4) zone respectively and rezone Parcel 2 a site specific Residential Low Density, Grouped Multiple Dwellings (R4) zone that also permits the uses allowed by the Residential Single Family and Two Family (R2) zone. 2. That holding (H) provisions be applied to the lands to ensure environmental and noise issues are addressed prior to development. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Official Pfan and Zoning By-law amendment can be approved for the following reasons: • The proposal is consistent with Provincial, Re Tonal and Cit tannin promote the provision of a mix of compatible housing and thee efficientu selof land a'nd infrastructure. The application of holding (H) provisions to the lands will ensure any environmental concerns on the arena site are addressed and any noise impacts from Highway 420 are mitigated prior to development. BACKGROUND Proposal The City-initiated applica#ion is to change the Official Plan designation and zoning on Parcels _ 1 and 2 (see Schedule 1) to allow future residential development. Parcel 1 is 1.2 hectares (3 acres) and Parcel 2 is 3,130 sq. metres (33,692 sq. ft.). These lands contain the Stamford and Jack Bell arenas and associated parking .lots that have been declared surplus by the municipality and will be offered for sale. The existing Prince Edward Park is to remain. A concept plan for Parcel 1 is shown on Schedule 2. January 25, 2010 - 2 - PD-2010-09 Parcel 1 is designated and zoned Open Space in both the City's Official Plan and Zoning By-law No. 79-200. The designation is proposed to be changed to Residential and the zoning changed to a site specific Residential Low Density, Grouped Multiple Dwellings (R4) zone to permit the property to be developed for townhouses. Parcel 2 is designated Residential by the Official Plan and is zoned Open Space. The zoning of this parcel is proposed to be changed to a site specific R4 zone which will permit the property to be developed for one family detached, semi-detached and duplex dwellings or an apartment building. This matter was first presented to Council in July 2009. At that time, Staff were recommending Parcel 1 be rezoned to Residential Single Family and Tw.o Family Zone (R2), the same zone that applies to the surrounding residential lots. This would have allowed Parcel 1 to be developed with single detached, duplex and semi-detached dwellings. Council deferred the matter and directed staff to prepare a development concept for multi- familydwellings on Parcel 1 and consult with neighbouring residents. Schedule 2 illustrates a concept plan for 33 dwelling units that was presented to neighbours at an open house held on December 7, 2009. Surrounding Land Uses The surrounding properties are developed primarilywithsingle-detached dwellings. Highway 420 is located directly to the north and a City park exists at the corner of Prince Edward Avenue and Cook Street abutting Parcel 1. Circulation Comments Information on the requested Official Plan and Zoning By-law amendment was circulated to City divisions, the Region, agencies and the public for comment. The following summarizes the comments received to date: Regional Municipality of Niagara No objection from a Provincial or Regional planning perspective. A Phase 1 Environmental Site Assessment is required for the arena site. A noise study is required to investigate noise impacts from Highway 420 and recommend mitigation measures. A holding symbol (H) should be included in the by-law to ensure completion of the above noted studies as well as a filing of Record of Site Condition with the Ministry of Environment. Ministry of Transportation A minimum setback of 14 metres (46 feet) is required from the Highway 420 property line fQr all above and below ground structures including internal roads, required parking and services. Specific development applications will require - further review and permits from the Ministry. January 25, 2010 _3 . .Parks Recreation and Culture PD-2010-09 There is a 4.76 hectares (11.76 acres) surplus of neighbourhood parkland in the Drummond Planning District. Prince Edward Park is 0.4 hectares (1 acre) in size, classified as a neighbourhood park and is not intended to accommodate active uses such as baseball diamonds. Improvements to the playground equipment are subject to the City's capital budget and could come from cash-in-lieu of parkland payments. Municipal Works No objections. Municipal services are available and can support the proposed development. All requirements for development will be addressed through the review of future planning applications. Transportation Services No objections. Lands for various necessary road widenings and daylighting triangles will be retained by the City. Legal Services, Fire Services No objections. Neighbourhood Open House A neighbourhood open house was held on December 7, 2009. Three (3) neighbours attended and expressed concerns about the loss of the arena site as parkland and requested at least a portion of Parcel 1, along the north side of Cook Street extending east from Prince Edward Park, be retained as parkland. The residents asked if there would be improvements to the playground equipment in the Park, and noted they would like a baseball diamond. One neighbour questioned if sewers and water lines in the area would support the development. ANALYSIS Provincial Policy and Regional Policy Plan The subject properties are located within the Urban Area Boundary and within the Built-up Area. Both Provincial and Regional policies promote the provision of a mix of compatible housing and the efficient use of land and services within the built area. Because of the current land use and the close proximity to Highway 420, several studies, including noise and environmental site assessments, will have to be undertaken before the lands can be developed for residential purposes. January 25, 2010 - 4 - ~ PD-2010-09 Official Plan Parcel 1 is currently designated Open Space in the Official Plan reflecting its current use for recreation. Parcel 2 is designated Residential indicating that it can be developed for housing. Given that there is sufficient parkland in the Planning District to serve~area residents, the highest and best alternative use of Parcel 1 is for residential purposes and the designation should be changed accordingly. The Official Plan encourages compatible infill developments that contribute to the City's supply of housing units and make efficient use of existing services. The lands are located along a collector road (Frederica Street) which permits development of multiple unit dwellings, including townhouses and low rise apartment dwellings, up to 50 units per hectare (20 units per acre). The proposed development will contribute to the City's housing supply without the need to extend municipal services. Zoning The proposed R4 zone on Parcel 1 would allow a more efficient use of urban lands through townhouse development rather than development of single or semi-detached lots. The height and massing of the proposed townhouses are compatible with the surrounding dwellings. The site would have adequate landscaping to fit in with the surrounding neighbourhood and there is an opportunity to develop the units on the south side of Frederica Street to front onto this street, providing a street presence ~to complement the single detached dwellings on the north side. of the street. Sufficient transportation and servicing infrastructure are available to serve the development. The standard R4 zone permits townhouses .and apartments. A site specific R4 zone is recommended to limit the site's development to townhouses. The provisions regulating minimum lot area per unit are proposed to be increased from 250 square metres (2,691 square feet) to 350 square metres (3,767 square feet) which reflects the design presented to area residents. The development concept as shown on Schedule 2 has been designed with most of the units oriented toward an internal and private driveway to minimize the number of driveways to Frederica or Cook Streets. This concept requires an increase in building lot coverage from 35% of the lot area to 40%. This coverage is consistent with the coverage permitted for surrounding lands and will not create any impacts. It is recommended the townhouse dwellings have a setback of 4.5 metres (15 feet) from all three street frontages (Prince Edward Avenue, Frederica Street and Cook Street). The units that flank onto the rear of the lots fronting-onto Glenholme Avenue should have a setback of1.8 metres (5.9 feet) from the lot line. In addition the side yard setback for the semi- detached dwelling should be 1.8 metres. Rear amenity areas for the units are to be 7.5 metres (24.6 feet). In order to allow the flexibility of having townhouse units front onto Frederica Street with garages in the rear yard, the amenity areas for these units can be provided on their interior side. January 25, 2010 - 5 - PD-2010-09 Separation distances between townhouse blocks are governed by the Ontario Building Code. Therefore, reducing the minimum distance between townhouse dwellings (where two exterior walls face each other and both contain windows for habitable rooms) from 15 metres (49.2 feet) to 5 metres (16.4 feet) is consistent with the codes and is appropriate. The proposed R4 zone for Parcel 2 will combine permitted uses and standards of both the R2 and R4 zones and is intended to provide development options for potential developers of this land. The usable depth of the property is limited by the MTO's 14 metre setback from Highway 420. As such a small, low-rise apartment may be the best option for the site. Based on the minimum lot area provisions of the R4 zone, the size of the parcel would permit a maximum of 15 apartment units. Alternatively, single or semi-detached homes could be constructed on the land based on the regulations contained in the R2 zone. Utilizing minimum lot frontage and lot area criteria of the R2 zone, approximately 7 lots for single-detached. homes or 5semi-detached lots (10 dwellings) could be created on this parcel. In accordance with Regional comments, an Environmental Site Assessment and Record of Site Condition will be required for the arena site (Part 2) prior to future residential development. This evaluation will address any potential concerns regarding the past use of the property. Although there is a noise attenuation wall along Highway 420, a noise study is required for Parcels 1 and 2 to address possible issues including specifics for any warning cla-uses or construction requirements to mitigate highway noise. These two matters are recommended to be addressed through the inclusion of holding (H) provisions. The H provisions would be removed when the required studies are completed. Documentation of the Heritage Value of the Two Arenas The Stamford Memorial and Jack Bell arenas have an associated value to the community because they have long served as skating/hockey facilities. Stamford is a memorial arena in recognition of the soldiers who served during World Wars I and II. Jack Bell arena is named after a local resident because of his work with Stamford Minor Hockey and Stamford Figure Skating Club. The arenas were built in 1949 and 1973, respectively. Prior to the sale of the land and demolition of the buildings, aphotographic/video record of the arenas should be undertaken. FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS Proceeds from sale of lands will be used to off-set costs of Gale Complex. CITY"S STRATEGIC COMMITMENT The proposed redesignation and zoning will facilitate the sale of these surplus lands, providing revenue to off-set the cost of the City's new 4-pad arena.

As 2010 is Canada's Olympic year, this theme is particularly relevant. Across Canada, sports and recreation activities have always played a central role in building social cohesion and community involvement. A display is being planned as part of the Heritage Showcase at Niagara Square Shopping Centre from February 12-14, 2010 as a kick off to Heritage Week 2010. A proclamation is included in tonight's Council agenda. Since 1974, Heritage Canada, a national organization has recognized the third Monday in February as Heritage Day. In 1985, the Ontario government expanded the day to a full week in order to recognize Ontario's rich and diverse heritage. According to the Ontario Heritage Trust, many heritage-based organizations and municipalities have used the Heritage Day and Ontario Heritage Week as a vehicle to stimulate awareness of heritage resources and heritage related issues within their communities. In Niagara Falls, during 2009, the Municipal Heritage Committee recommended two properties for designation, the Earl Thomas House on Pine Grove Avenue and the former school at Green's Corners (previously the Parks, Recreation and Culture building) at 7565 Lundy's Lane assisting in preserving two further examples of the heritage of Niagara Falls. As the Municipal Heritage Committee recognizes the importance of the City's heritage, they welcome this week as a time to share their enthusiasm and excitement with the residents of Niagara Falls and hope to heighten the awareness of the City's heritage through events such as the Heritage Showcase at Niagara Square and would encourage all to attend. To this end, the Municipal Heritage Week would ask that Council proclaim the week of February 15-21, 2010 as Heritage Week in the City of Niagara Falls.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Regional Niagara Bicycling Committee (RNBC) is seeking Council's support for its report on Priority Actions (proposed work plan) through 2Q11 (Appendix 1) and proposed' revisions to its Terms of Reference {Appendix 1O, in order to effectively achieve the three strategic directions identified in its Strategic Planning report which was endorsed by Regional Council in March 2008,. IcP a7-2oa9 PWA 1 '[ 3-2009 November 2b, 2009 Page 2 This report provides same background information on the strategic directions identified in a Council approved RNBC Strategic Planning report and the work that began subsequently to identify priority projects for the RNBC task farces to undertake in 2009 to 2011,. Some estimates on funding requirements are set out to help inform on-going departmental budget deliberations, Some discussion is provided on the proposed revised Terms of Reference which will help shape the structure, mandate and operation of the RNBC to support the strategic areas of focus and priority actions outlined. In preparation for the next term of Re~ionat Council, if is suggested that discussions begin to review and refine the current sub-committee structure on a variety of active transportation initiatives to better resource this broader work. These initiatives are consistent with Strategic Objectives B - "Community and Social Well- Being", D - "Environmental Stewardship", and E - "integrated Transportation System" in Council's Business Plan. FINANCIAL, IMPL[GATIONS As the designated lead department Public Works, through its Transportation Services Division, generally is responsible for funding the supporting ac#ivities of the RNBC through its approved operating and capital budgets, subject to Regional Council approval, The exact amount of funding required far any given year fluctuates depending on the nature of the studies, projec#s or events proposed by the RNBC for a particular year. The RNBC has estimafied costs for those projects which might require special consideration by Public Works, other affected departments and Regional Council (see Appendix I) over a 3 year period. In order for these projects fo move forward in a timely manner, the RNBC is requesting that Council approve the list of priority actions so that staff can designate funds for these expenses within approved current and future operating/capital budgets,. This also allows the Region to take advantage of other Provincial and Federal funding programs that arise like the recent Federa! infrastrucfiure stimulus program and the MTO Transportation Demand Management initiafiive.. The RNBC also benefits from the significant professional expertise of its volunteer committee members which generates a substantial in-kind financial contribution to the Region.. Two examples of this work include the preparation of Terms of Reference and work program for a new Regional signage and way finding program, as well as two editions of an award winning Bicycling Map for Niagara.. PURPOSE This report seeks Council's support for a list of proposed Priority Actions (work plan) to be undertaken by the RNBC through fio 2011 (Appendix I) as well as proposed revisions to the Committee's Terms of Reference (Appendix ll) in order to effectively achieve the three strategic directions identified in its 2007 Strategic Planning report,. ICP 57-2009 PWA 113-2009 November 25, 2009 Page 3 REPOR'T' Backgt-ound; The RNBC undertook a strategic planning exercise beginning in November 2006 which resulted in a final Report on Strategic Planning Issues in November 2007. This report was received by Council in March 2008 at which time Gouncil approved the three strategic areas of focus that would guide the work of the RNBC for the foreseeable future. The -RNBC will work towards the implementation of Council's approved Regional Bikeways Network to ensure dedicated space for cyclists, including the implementation of a bicycle signage program:. 2.. The RNBC will assist Niagara municipalities and other stakeholders with the development and implementation of relevant planning documents, inclusive of land use and active transportation plans that support enhanced in€rastructure (inter-~ connected, multi-modal pathways and trails -both on-road and off-road, facilities such as bike storage/parking at destinations and on buses, etc:) for walking and.cycling. 3.: The RNBC will maintain and expand its partnerships with other local, provincial and bi-~ national groups and communities to facilitate and promote cycling for transportation, recreation and tourism purposes through education, encouragement and outreach activities for cyclists of all ages and abilities. Since mid-2008, the RNBC has continued to work towards the implementation of its three strategic priorities by developing a list of Priority Actions for each of its three task forces comprising Nefinrork, Policy Planning and Education & Enforcement {Appendix f). Fallowing that exercise, the Committee updated its Terms of Reference (Appendix II} to better reflect the context within which the RNBC operates. RNBC Identified PriorityActions. The following is a list of some of the more significant priority actions that the RNBC and its three task forces propose to undertake, subject #o funding and staff resources, in partnership with others through to 2011: 'l. Network • Design and implement a bikeways signage and way finding program.. • Continue the implementation of Regional Niagara Bikeways Master Plan Network, including support to municipalities and other agencies. 1GP 57-2009 PWA 113-20x9 November 2v, 2009 Page 4 2. Policy Planning Work with municipal staff and stakeholders to incorporate the Regional Bike network and supportive cycling policies in local municipal planning documents (schedules) including but not limited to transportation master plans, official plans and recreation master plans.. This includes development of mode( focal policies., Continue to provide input, advice & comments on issues/undertakings, related planning studies & initiatives (as requested) that may have a bicycling component whether at a regional, municipal; provincial, bi-national or private sector level (i..e.. Waterfront Trust, Niagara Parks Commission and other trail building bodies, including US partners (i.e, Niagara 1812} for cross border connections,. 5. Education and Encouragement • Develop a third edition of the Regional Bicycling Map (e.g,. secure budget, preliminary data verification, etc} as well as cast to possibly reprint 2~d edition of map,. Update RNBC d'tspfay and resource materials far outreach and advocacy purposes at community venues and trade shows.. This work supports several Strategic Objectives identified in Regional Council's Business Plan {i.e.. Objectives B - . "Community and Social Weil-Being", D - "Environmental Stewardship", and E - "Integrated Transportation System"). Adequate- Regional staff and funding resources will need to be allocated if the RNBC is to effectively carry out These initiatives in partnership with significant volunteer assistance that brings considerable expertise to the table.. R1VBG Revised Terms of I:eference: Proposed revised terms of reference have been prepared to reflect a renewed focus far the RNBC as outlined in the approved 2008 Strategic P[an., Additional information is provided on the vision, mission and areas of strategic focus which help to bring better alignment with Provincial and Regional policy directions., A revised committee structure, including task farces and ad hoc working groups, will deaf with specific issues and projects identified in the RNBC's work plan,. From a broad perspective, the vision is: "To establish and have the Niagara Region recognized as the premier bicycie- friendly communify in Ontario, where cyclists of all ages and abilities can cycle in safe and enjoyable environments for transportation, recreation and tourism purposes. " Looking to the Future on Active Transportation: Over the past 15 years, the Niagara Region has played a leadership role in supporting active transportation initiatives that are well recognized across the Province. Work on the RNBC, the Greater Niagara Circle Route Committee, the Healthy Active Living Commiifiee ICP 57-2009 PWA 113-2009 November 25, 2009 ~~ Page 5 and, more recently, the Active Transportation Niagara Committee, has made Niagara a friendlier, more supportive place to bicycle, hike and walk for both recreational and utilitarian pursuits. To carry out this work, however, significant staff, volunteer and political rnvolvement has been required,. Looking forward then to the next term of Council, it may be desirable to begin re-examining the existing sub-committee structure to perhaps streamline and better resource this work. As noted in the October 5, 2009 report of the Council Organization Review Committee (GORC), a process should begin to review and refine the current sub-committee structure, including active transportation initiatives, with a future report back to GORC. CONCLUSION Significant attention has been given over the past three years to the strategic areas of focus and priority projects that the RNBC could be involved with over the next few years,. Regional staff and volunteer involvement on this very active, results-oriented committee has helped to make Niagara one of the premier bicycle-friendly destinations iri the Province, An ambitious list of possible projects has been identified in Appendix I, many of which will require ongoing staff and funding support., Regional Council's continued support for such initiatives is required all of which contribute and support Council's broader business plan goals and objectives,.

(CP 57-2009 PWA 113-2009 November 25, 2009 Appendix !(-Page 23 Appendix I:1~istox~ical Context o_ f the RIV~3C As noted in Section 1.0 Rationale in this Perms of'Reference, the 1995 Regional Bicycling Study concluded that in order to be successful in encouraging bicycling in Niagara, three things were needed: i) staff' committed to bicycling initiatives; ii}political support fox bicycling initiatives; and, iii} an active Bicycling Committee. As such Regional Council agreed to establish a bicycling advisory committee, under the then Public Works and Utilities Committee, to dhect the implementation of the study. It was viewed that the Conarnittee could play a useful, active role in providing input on a wide range of topics and issues related to bicycling.. In August 200.3, the Region completed a final report on the Regional N'iagaYa Bikeways Master Plan, as part of~the Niagara Region Transportation Strategy.. The plan built upon and updated the work done in the 1995 Bicycle Master Plan and outlined a 20-year strategy for identifying network priorities and setting out the implementation tools necessax,y to develop aRegion-wide on and off--road bikeways network.. Ten principle objectives were developed for the Bikeways Master Plan: 1. Develop an understanding of the current and future demand for cycling in the Niagara region.. 2.. Provide a comprehensive review of the cycling network, including levels of'safety of'aIl users. 3.. Develop an appropriate network to meet the full range of existing and future cycling needs in the Niagara. region.. 4.. Review.jurisdiction xales with respect to funding mechanisms . 5,. Develop appropriate standards, facilities, programs and implementation methods(appx•oaches„ 6.. Review the implementation status of'the existing Regional bikeways system and estimate the financial costs associated with improving the system. 7.. Define the implementation priorities.. 8.. Integrate long team roads and trails systems planning. 9.. Improve co-ordination of work among local agencies, as it relates to on and off-road cycling facilities. 14.. Deliver a Master Plan and Implementation Strategy that: ciaxif es the roles of Regional staff; the RNBC, local municipalities, the Niagara Parks Commission and other paxtner~s; provides a bikeways network development plan and implementation priorities; provides recommended planning and design guidelines fax developing the network; acrd estimates the costs fox implementing the Plan oven the next twenty years,. The Plan provided a unique opportunity to promote a healthy lifestyle, tourism and economic opportunities throughout the Niagara region, and was based on a significant amount ofmunicipal and public input. (CP 57-2009 PWA 113-2009 November 25, 2009 Appendix 11-Page 24 Regional Council approved the Regional NzagaYa Bikeways Master Plan on ,January 24, 2405 (subject to further discussion with local municipalities on the bicycle network).. Section 9..3 of~the PIan set out a proposed List of amended general bicycling policies, one of~ which affirmed the provision of a forum fox public and agency input into Regional cycling decisions through the Regional Niagara Bicycling Cornmittee.. The RNBC was tasked to: -~ pxovrde rnput on cycling rssues, projects, policies and programs on an ongoing basis; - examine opportunities for cycling routes along abandoned railway right-of-ways, utility corridors, waterways and other linear corridors; - monitor the implementation of the Regional Niagara Bicycling Network and support programs; - participate as volunteers in bicycling initiatives and programs; and - provide as part of~an annual report, a list of recommended on and offWroad bikeway network implementation priorities for the subsequent year, based on the Regional Niagara Bikeways Master Plan or other route opportunities as they arise.

Niagara~alls CA V:1UA REPORT TO: His Worship Mayor Ted Salci and Members of the Municipal Council SUBMITTED BY: Clerks Division SUBJECT: CD-2010-01 Location of Standing Committee Meetings RECOMMENDATION CD-2010-01 January 25, 2009 That Council receive the information and continue the practice of holding Community Services and Corporate Service mee#ings in Committee Room #2 prior to the regular Council meeting. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Due to logistics and past practice, the Community Services and Corporate Service committees of Council have been held in a committee room, as opposed to Council Chambers. Having the committee meetings in Council Chambers between 4:00 and 7:00 p.m. would cause logistical difficulties. Dispensing with committee meetings and bringing everything to Council is possible, however, the earliest the Council meetings could begin would be 6:00 p.m. based on Cogeco's availability. BACKGROUND At the November 30, 2009 meeting, a motion was approved to have staff look into and report back on the possibility of having the standing committee meetings in Council Chambers. ANALYSIS/RATIONALE Anything is possible with regard to arranging our Council and committee meetings, however, the current format and location of our meetings occur for reasons of convenience and logistics. As far as this writer can determine, since the mid-eighties, and perhaps earlier, Finance and Municipal Works-related committees have been held on Mondays prior to the regular Council meetings. In 1995, these committees, which are composed of all members of Council, were named the Community Services and Corporate Services Committees in reflection of the Corporation's organizational structure. The meetings have always been held in a committee room in City Hall (i.e., not in Council Chambers). Until the late nineties, the locations of the committee rooms were on the second floor. When office space was needed in Planning, a new large sized committee room was made in the basement of City Hall. The 2004 review of committees recognized that the distinction between regular Council January 25, 2010 - 2 - CD-2010-01 and committee was minimal. Nonetheless, staff has tended to send reports that are more technical in nature, reports that may elicit more frank discussion and debate and items that require public consultation (i.e., Parking and Traffic reports) but are not public meetings under the Planning Act, to committee. In the last six months or so, there has been a greater effort to assign the appropriate reports to their respective committee. It should be noted that these meetings are open to the public, covered by the press and, often, the stakeholders or affected parties are given notice on their particular items of interest; therefore, the principles of openness and transparency are being upheld. Also, Council members are also free to move an item "upstairs" to the Regular Council agenda if they get such a motion approved. Another reason why a committee room is used .prior to 7:00 p.m. is that the Council Chambers requires set up for Cogeco coverage and presentations. The Cogeco crew usually arrives while Council is in Committee (approximately 4:00 p.m.). All items could be sent to the regular Council agenda; however, due to the availability of Cogeco and set up of Chambers, the earliest the regular meetings could begin is at 6:00 p.m. Last year, Council spent, on average, five (5) hours in committee or Council meetings on Mondays. Although afive-hour meeting could be accommodated from 6:00 p.m. on, there were five occasions when meetings exceeded six (6) hours. Although it is possible to have all items upstairs, and have all items broadcast, some members of the public are intimidated by the prospect of appearing before the cameras. The committee setting allows more informality with regard to procedure and is less intimidating for the speakers. Finally, staff wants the Council members to be comfortable with the meeting process and always welcomes comments and suggestions on how to improve or streamline the meetings. Council may, however, want to wait until the next term to institute any major changes to the agenda process. FINANCIAL/STAFFING/LEGAL IMPLICATIONS There are no financial implications. CITY'S STRATEGIC COMMITMENT To improve the efficiency of the organization. Recommended by: Dean I rfida, it Clerk Approved by: K. E. Burden, Executive Director, Corporate Services Respectfully submitted: K n Todd, Chief Administrative Officer DI Niagara~alls cannot REPORT TO: His Worship Mayor Ted Salci and Members of the Municipal Council City of Niagara Falls, Ontario SUBMITTED BY: Finance SUBJECT: F-2010-01 Monthly Tax Receivables Report -November RECOMMENDATION F-2010-01 January 25, 2010 That Council receive the Monthly Tax Receivables report for information purposes. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The City of Niagara Falls continues to exhibit increased tax receivables due to the slowdown in the economy. Tax receivables as a percentage of taxes billed has increased from 14.9% to 15.7% with $25.4 million in taxes outstanding as of November 30, 2009. The City's finance staff has had success in resolving 90% of properties subject to registration for 2009. Lastly, twenty-five properties are scheduled for tax sale in the next year. BACKGROUND This report is being provided as part of the monthly financial reporting to Council by s#aff. It is also submitted to our banking institution for compliance with our banking agreement. ANALYSIS/RATIONALE The tax collection for 2009 lags behind the collection history in 2008. This is consistent with historical trends in taxation years when the economy has slowed. Table 1 shows that taxes outstanding at November 30, 2009 are $25.4 million. This represents an increase from $23.8 million in arrears for the same period in 2008. Finance staff continues to actively pursue property owners in arrears. The percentage of taxes outstanding to taxes billed in 2009 is 15.7 % versus 14.9% in 2008. Table 2 provides the breakdown of outstanding taxes -total by assessment class. Consistent with previous months, the majority of outstanding taxes are for residential and commercial properties. At the present time, with final tax billing completed, the ratio of uncollected taxes by property class has remained virtually the same. Finance staff takes specific collection actions for properties that are subject to registration. These action steps have been outlined in previous reports. At January 1, 2009, 364 properties were subject to registration. Table 3 summarizes the progress of these actions after eleven months of activity. This table shows 90% of the tax accounts or 330 properties have been paid in full or the owners have made suitable payment arrangements. During November, ten accounts were paid in full. January 25, 2010 - 2 - F-2010-01 Finance staff continues to make every effort to have accounts paid in order to avoid the registration process and the associated costs related to that process. Four hundred and five properties are subject to registration at January 1, 2010 of which 120 properties have suitable payment arrangements on file. Finance staff have begun sending the first notifications as this action step has been successful in resolving some tax payers issues in prior years. The total accounts to be notified were 285 as of November 11, 2009. Table 4 identifies the properties and associated tax arrears scheduled for tax sales in the future. During the month of November, three registered properties were redeemed. The outstanding taxes for registered properties represent 7.9% of the total outstanding taxes at month end. FINANCIAL/STAFFING/LEGAL IMPLICATIONS Tax arrears as a percentage of taxes billed in a year is a performance measure that stakeholders utilize to analyse an organization's financial strengths. Niagara Falls, due to its high reliance on commercial assessment, is traditionally higher compared to municipalities of similar size. The percentage of taxes outstanding to taxes billed as at November 30, 2009 is 15.7 %. The municipality has a record of full collection and earns significant penalty revenues to offset the higher measure.

The statutory requirement of the City is to provide quarterly payments to both the Region of Niagara and the local school boards. The interim l evy is calculated so that property owners will be billed amounts not exceeding one half of the previous years annual taxes. The installment dates for the Interim Levy are February 26, 2010 and April 30, 2010. BACKGROUND The Municipal Act 2001 provides the City of Niagara Falls with the authority to issue an interim tax levy. Traditionally the interim levy has been made in February with two installment dates. The City of Niagara Falls requires a 2010 interim tax levy so as to provide the City with operating cash flow and to 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. ANALYSIS/RATIONALE 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: The amount levied on a property will 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 properties in a property class. January 25, 2010 - 2 - F-2010-03 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 2009 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 dine dates are consistent with the regulation and will be February 26, 2010 and April 30, 2010. In 2009, these dates were February 27, 2009 and April 30, 2009. 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. FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS The internal need for cashflow and the external statutory obligation necessitate the interim tax levy. Failure to provide an interim tax levy could lead to increased short term borrowing by the Corporation and could result in unplanned interest expenses. An interim tax levy is required to ensure the provision of the required funds to minimize borrowing costs.

Felicetti Niagara,Falls (AN.4 DA REPORT TO: His Worship Mayor Ted Salci and Members of the Municipal Council City of Niagara Falls, Ontario SUBMITTED BY: Finance SUBJECT: F-2010-04 Year End Tax Receivables Report RECOMMENDATION F-2010-04 January 25, 2010 That Council receive the Monthly Tax Receivables report for information purposes. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The City of Niagara Falls ended the tax year with an increase in taxes collected. Tax receivables as a percentage of taxes billed decreased from 11.6% in 2008 to 11.2% in 2009. Taxes outstanding as of December 31, 2009 was $18.1 million. The City's finance staff has had success in resolving 92% of properties subject to registration for 2009, however, thirty-four properties are scheduled for tax sale in the next two years. BACKGROUND This report is being provided as part of the monthly financial reporting to Council by staff. It is also submitted to our banking institution for compliance with our banking agreement. ANALYSIS/RATIONALE The tax collection for 2009 improved during December after lagging behind during the previous eleven months. Table 1 shows that taxes outstanding at December 31, 2009 are $18.1 million. This represents a decrease from $18.6 million in arrears forthe same period in 2008. Finance staff continues to actively pursue property owners in arrears. The percentage of taxes outstanding to taxes billed in 2009 is 11.2 % versus 11.6% in 2008. Table 2 provides the breakdown of outstanding taxes -total by assessment class. Consistent with previous months, the majority of outstanding taxes are for residential and commercial properties. At the present time, with final tax billing completed, the ratios of uncollected taxes by property class have remained virtually the same. Finance staff takes specific collection actions for properties that are subject to registration. These action steps have been outlined in previous reports. At January 1, 2009, 364 properties were subject to registration. Table 3 summarizes the progress of these actions after twelve months of activity. This table shows 92% of the tax accounts or 336 properties have been paid in full or the owners have made suitable payment arrangements. During December, six accounts were paid in full. January 25, 2010 - 2 - F-2010-04 Finance staff continues to make every effort to have accounts paid in order to avoid the registration process and the associated costs related to that process. Four hundred and five properties are subject to registration at January 1, 2010 of which 120 properties have suitable payment arrangements on file. Finance staff have commenced collection activities by sending first notifications. This action step has been successful in resolving collection issues in prior years. Table 4 identifies the properties and associated tax arrears scheduled for tax sales in the future. During the month of December, three registered properties were redeemed and eleven properties were registered. The outstanding taxes for registered properties represent 5.6% of the total outstanding taxes at month end. FINANCIAL/STAFFING/LEGAL IMPLICATIONS Tax arrears as a percentage of taxes billed in a year is a performance measure that stakeholders utilize to analyse an organization's financial strengths. Niagara Falls, due to its high reliance on commercial assessment, is traditionally higher compared to municipalities of similar size. The percentage of taxes outstanding to taxes billed as at December 31, 2009 is 11.2 %. The municipality has a record of full collection and earns significant penalty revenues to offset the higher measure.

This is an annual provision made to ensure that, if required, staff can utilize short term borrowing to meet operational requirements. Staff has prepared the borrowing by-law and it is included in the by-law agenda. This by-law is ready for approval given the Council's approval of the recommendation in this report. ANALYSIS/RATIONALE Staff recommends Council approve the borrowing of, if necessary, a sum or sums not exceeding in the aggregate $24,000,000.00. These temporary borrowings may be necessary to pay for obligations prior to the collection of taxes. FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS The short term borrowing facility is provided within the City's banking agreement with Scotiabank. Short term financing, if required, will be provided through the City's operating line of credit. The recommendation and by-law approved tonight will ensure that the City would have adequate cash requirements for operations should this be necessary.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Finance division compiles a listing of all user fees charged by the City's division for services provided. A listing of the various fees are printed in a user fee booklet and published on the City's website. The fee increases included in the 2010 listing are reflective of inflationary costs. Proposals for new user fees or significantly higher userfees structures will be brought forward by individual departments throughout the year, as required. It should be noted that the planning fees have been increased by the implementation plan outlined in the D.A.A.P. review. Building permit fees will be increased in accordance with the same review, later in the year after the required public meeting is held. BACKGROUND The City has a significant number of userfees that are charged forthe delivery of services. The fees are reviewed regularly to ensure that the amount charged are reflective of the objectives of the division and Corporation. The attached list of fees require Council approval. The effective date of the new fees will be immediate. FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS User fees provide approximately 6.5% of the annual revenues in the proposed 2010 General Purposes Budget. Userfees generated bythe City provide an opportunityforthe City to offset operating costs without tax increases. The changes to the user fees are reflective of inflationary costs. New fees or significantly increased fees will come forth in separate Council reports. Council will recall that the fees charged in the development application process (DAAP) both in the planning and building departments were to increase over the next two years. Building permit fee increases will be brought forth later in the year and are subject to a public meeting. Planning fees have been increased based on the approved implementation plan. January 25, 2010 - 2 - F-2010-06 The 2010 user fee booklet is compiled and will be published by the Finance Division. Changes in respect to the individual user fees for 2010 have been considered as an integral part of the 2010 Budget. As per the Municipal Act, 2001, a copy of the Schedule of Fees booklet will be available for public inspection and will be available online.

These types of operations include service requests coming in from the public for snow removal, potholes, etc., but would also be used by internal staff to monitor, maintain, and budget for roads related-operations. The project is expected to last up to ten weeks at a cost of approximately $7,500 per week. Billing from AGL will be bi-weekly. FINANCIAUSTAFFI'NG/LEGAL IMPLICATIONS The services required for implementation of the CarteGraph PavementView module will be financed from Special Purpose Reserves dedicated to the replacement of Information Systems.

BACKGROUND Since 1963 the City has leased the demised premises to the Boys' & Girls' Club of Niagara for use by it of a facility which provides, among other things, programs and services to children and youths of the community. The original Lease Agreement and the extension of same has now expired. The Boys' & Girls' Club of Niagara wishes to continue leasing the demised premises from the City in order that it may continue to provide its services to the community. The proposed Lease is for a term of ten years, with an option to terminate by either party upon 90 days written notice. As the Boys' & Girls' Club of Niagara is currently undertaking fundraising efforts in order to afford itself an opportunity to locate to a new facility, the aforementioned 90 day option to terminate would allow for such an event. ANALYSIS/RATIONALE The proposed Lease will provide the Boys' & Girls' Club of Niagara with the opportunity to continue its current relationship with the City, thereby allowing it to continue to offer its programs and services to the children and youths of the community uninterrupted, while at the same time affording it the opportunity to relocate in the future. CITY'S STRATEGIC COMMITMENT The strengthening of partnerships such as the City's relationship with the Boys' & Girls' Club of Niagara is a strong focus of the City's community development model.

That the Mayor and City Clerk be authorized to execute the necessary contract documents. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The construction of this sanitary sewer on Kalar Road and Paddock Trail will serve as an integral part in addressing the chronic basement flooding occurrences in this area. These works were identified in the Kalar Road Environmental Assessment Study that was prepared in 2007 as an overall strategy in addressing basement flooding conditions in the Kalar Road Pumping Station tributary area. BACKGROUND This area has been subject to chronic basement flooding occurrences during intense rainfall events due to the connection of weeping tiles to the sanitary sewer system which was the standard practice at the time the homes were constructed. The City undertook an Environmental Assessment Study in 2007 which reviewed the various options on how to address this matter. The preferred option involved multiple solutions involving disconnection of weeping the and downspouts and improved lot grading as well as the construction of sanitary sewers on Kalar Road, Paddock Trail, Lexington Court and Thorold Stone Road. These works will be done in phases as follows: Phase 1 - Kalar Road from Paddock Trail Drive to Kalar Road Pumping Station. (current) -Paddock Trail Drive from Aintree Drive to Kalar Road. - Easement from Lexington Court to Kalar Road. Phase 2 - Kalar Road from Kalar Road Pumping Station to Thorold Stone Road. (future) -Thorold Stone Road from Kalar Road to Cardinal Drive. The current contract is for Phase 1 works only. January 25, 2010 _2- MW-2010-05 The Tender Opening Committee, in the presence of the City Clerk' representatives Mr. Ray Miller, Manager of Supply & Services and Mr. Bill Matson, Manager of Clerk's Services opened tenders on Tuesday, January 19, 2010. Tender documents were picked up by fifteen (15) Contractors and five (5) bids were received. Listed below is a summary of the totalled tendered prices, excluding GST, received from the Contractors. The tenders were checked and the corrected bids are shown bold and marked with an asterisk (*). 1. Baiocco Construction St. Catharines 2. Alfidome Construction Niagara Falls 3. Provincial Construction Niagara Falls 4. Centennial Construction Niagara-on-the-Lake 5.

This contractor has performed similar type projects for the City. We are of the opinion that this contractor is capable of successfully undertaking this project. The Engineer's estimate for this project was $5,363,300.00. Timing of tenders for construction, when the planned schedule permits, can play an important role in how competitive the market will be, based on prospective bidders work loads. The project is scheduled to be completed within 140 working days of construction start. FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS The Phase 1 work was included in the approved Municipal Works Capital Budgeter 2009 with a budgeted expenditure of $6,220,751:00. This is the first of two phases for the construction of the improvement works. The recommended expenditure is forthe amount of $4,087,995.80 from Account #12-3-410019-030000. COMMITMENT TO COUNCIL PRIORITIES Implementation of the Capital Project meets the intent of Council's Strategic Priorities to establish infrastructure investment priorities, and to strengthen and promote economic development within the City.

RECOMMENDATION That Council approve the request and pass the by-law included in tonight's agenda to designate Lots 186-213 (Inclusive), Registered Plan 59M-354, as exempt from Part Lot Control. 2. That the owner be given four years to create the new parcels and notify the City when the separate deeds have been registered. 3. That staff register the Part Lot Control by-law after all servicing matters identified in this report are addressed to the satisfaction of Municipal Works. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The proposed removal of Part Lot Control for the subject lands can be supported based on the following: The approval will permit the relotting of the properties to create small frontage lots for single-detached dwellings in response to market demand. The use of this PlanningAct mechanism is appropriate and zoning by-law approvals are in place to permit the lotting modifications. The development of this portion of the subdivision allows the installation of a required permanent sanitary sewer connection for the seniors home to the south. BACKGROUND Proposal River Realty Development (1976) Inc. has submitted a request to remove properties on Armelina Crescent, the south side of Glavcic Drive (east of Mary Drive) and the east side of Desanka Avenue from Part Lot Control (see attached letter and Schedule 1). This Planning Act process enables the division of lots or blocks within a registered plan of subdivision. The general intent of removing Part Lot Control is for the minor redesign of subdivision lots (relotting) ortheseparation ofsemi-detached oron-street townhouse units. January 25, 2010 - 2 - PD-2010-08 ANALYSIS The subject land is within the Deerfield Estates plan of subdivision (59M-354) that was registered in November 2006. The subdivision was approved with a mix of single and semi-detached dwellings, on-street townhouses, block townhouses, a school site, parkland and a woodlot area. Lots 186 to 213 (inclusive) represent 28 of the lots in the plan originally intended for semi-detached dwellings (56 units). The applicant proposes to reconfigure these parcels to allow the creation of 51 small frontage lots (minimum 9.5 metres/31.2 feet) for single-detached dwellings. The attached preliminary Reference Plan (Schedule 2) indicates the proposed division of the land. (A similar relotting proposal in the subdivision was approved by Council in 2007 for portions of Mary Drive and Milomir Street to create 47 small frontage lots on land originally designed for on-street townhouses and semi-detached homes). The land is currently zoned Residential Mixed (R3-743) through site specific Zoning By-law No. 2006-56 (garages are to be constructed with each dwelling unit). This zoning category permits single-detached and semi-detached dwellings as well as on-street townhouse dwelling units. The Committee of Adjustment approved a variance application (A-2009- 037) on December 8, 2009 to facilitate the proposed single-detached lots and the future construction of houses. The approval allowed reductions to minimum requirements for lot area, lot frontage and side yard width and an increase in the provisions for maximum lot coverage. Although semi-detached housing is being eliminated in the subdivision, the smaller lot singles provide an alternate lot size and contribute to the mix of available housing types and sizes in the area. The owner and builders feel this lot size will address market demand for smaller single-detached dwellings. Approval of a Part Lot Control by-law is required so that new property lines can be established over the lots. A by-law time limit of four years has been requested to allow for the servicing, construction and market absorption of the 51 lots. Given the size of the overall subdivision and phasing, as welt as additional residential development in the area, this timeframe is acceptable. The proposed lotting changes necessitate servicing and easement alterations to the subdivision plan. The existing municipal easements for rear yard catchbasins must be relocated based on the revised lotting to satisfy City requirements. New servicing drawings and an amendment to the Subdivision Agreement are to be completed. The development of this section of the Deerfield Estates subdivision enables the City to correct the temporary sanitary servicing arrangement for Dorchester Meadows Retirement Home to the south that has existed. for several years. Through the approval of a 2007 severance application by River Realty located to the north along Kalar Road, a connection to the Kalar Road sanitary sewer was permitted. This servicing approval was based on the future removal of the existing retirement home from the Kalar Road sewer and the redirection of the sanitary flows to the Deerfield Estates system when available. The service connection change is the responsibility of River Realty. CITY'S STRATEGIC COMMITMENT Council's priority is to strengthen and promote economic development in the City. The approval of the request to remove part lot control will allow new residential construction to meet market demands.

That the Mayor and City Clerk be authorised to enter into an agreement to purchase. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The current Transit fireboxes have been in service for twenty years and are in need of replacement. They have met their useful lifespan and no longer function accurately to; register fares paid, accept new fare .media, and store data for management to review for service design. Of concern, the availability of parts to maintain the current fireboxes is extremely~limited. The latest generation of fireboxes offer Transit staff a host of new tools to better market and manage the service provided. These technology enhancements will greatly improve Transit management's ability to; reduce fare evasion and fraud, .accept multiple media forms, reduce the costly overhead associated with printing and managing the media, collect a rich source of customer data, as well as provide unlimited opportunities to further market the service via unique, targeted initiatives. The software flexibility these fireboxes afford, also make them extremely adaptable to communicating with and accepting other transit systems' fare media. This will make connections with other service providers, such as; the People Mover and GO Transit much more seamless in the near future. BACKGROUND The present fireboxes were purchased through a Request for Proposals, which was issued in 1988. As noted, the availability of parts to maintain the current fireboxes is very limited. The most recent replacement components were used units sourced from a Transit agency in Grand Rapids, Michigan who were replacing their fireboxes with current technology. This scarcity of replacement parts, coupled with the lack of reliability of these older fireboxes has made them a costly, time consuming chi lenge to maintain in service. In addition, the lack of reliability causes disputes between the customers and bus operators when the coin reading mechanism fails to accurately register fares. January 25, 2010 -2- ANALYSIS/RATIONALE TS-2010-10 Advancements in farebox technology .have created an entire new dynamic for Transit systems. The ability to adapt to the needs of customers has been tremendously improved. Current multi-media Transit fares may be; time based (daily, weekly, monthly), special event based (conventions), organization based (hospitality sector, post secondary student customers), or token based (ten rides). Further, when smart cards are introduced into our service, the cards will communicate with the fareboxes and share information. Therefore, the fareboxes will collect information about the type of card accepted, where and when it was read, and even notify the customer when it is time to reload the card with Transit fares. All this data collection will better equip Transit staff with information to design and implement services, which meet the needs of our evolving community and customer base. The Request for Proposals generated interest from two vendors; Fare Logistics, and Garival who represent GFI fareboxes. Each of these respondents were provided .and accepted the opportunity to demonstrate their equipment to Transit staff on site. These presentations were extremely valuable and afforded staff the ability to; review, test, challenge, and learn what each manufacturer supplied and how it may be placed into service within Niagara Falls Transit's unique operating environment. A committee representing Maintenance, Operations, and Administration were responsible for analyzing the design and functionality of the fareboxes. An Evaluation Criteria Form was implemented by the Committee to rate the two submissions. Upon completing the evaluation, the Committee selected the Fare Logistics Voyager farebox based on its open architecture, philosophy, and cost. Of particular interest to the Committee was Fare Logistics non proprietary hardware and software, which utilizes componentry and programs manufactured by a host of vendors and thus, are readily available at competitive prices. The advantage of the open architecture, adaptable software is that it can be programmed to accept and manage an ever changing host of fare media and thus, offers tremendous flexibility and opportunity. Quotations were as follows: Fare Logistics $561,884.00 Garival $913,360.00 FINANCIAL The purchase of Transit Farebox replacements was included and approved in the 2009 Capital Budget. The estimated cost included in the budget was $600,000. As is shown above, the staff recommended tender is within the budgeted amount. Provincial Gas Tax grants are the funding source for the .purchase and these are presently held in reserves.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Request that Council approve the renewal of a one year contract with the Canadian Corps of Commissionaires with a proposed 2% increase over 2009 rates. The Commissionaires have .provided staffing for parking enforcement officers, crossing guard coordination and building security for the City of Niagara Falls for the past nine years. The parking control officers are essential to maintaining the proper flow of traffic, regulating parking bylaws and responding to public concerns over residential parking violations. BACKGROUND In 2000, the Request for Proposal process was initiated, whereby, the Canadian Corps of Commissionaires was the successful bidders. Council approved athree-year contract with the .Hamilton Office of the Corps. During the last 5 years, Council approved one year extensions to this agreement. Over the past eight years, the Hamilton Office has maintained high standards and a consistent turn out of Officers. The corps also provides customer service training sessions for its Parking Control Officers and will continue to do so on an ongoing basis. The Corps provides parking control services staff and crossing guard coordination (Corporal position) for Transportation Services for the City of Niagara Falls, and Security through Building Services. January 25, 2010 - 3 - TS-2010-1~ The 2010 extension includes a 2% increase from 2009 contract rates. There is no increase to the administration fees. The estimated total cost increase for 2010 will be an additional $8,300. per year for parking control and school crossing co-ordination costs resulting in a total cost of $423,549. The Security Coordinator position is not a new position or an increase to the complement, but reflects the additional work being performed by security staff officers to schedule, train, maintain personnel files and man the security desk. ANALYSIS/RATIONALE The Canadian Corps of Commissionaires provide an essential service in regulating parking conditions traffic flow and maintaining safety zones and school crossings for the City of Niagara- Falls. A review of local municipalities identified that larger municipalities such as St. Catharines utilize the Canadian Corps of Commissionaires to provide all parking enforcement services, while smaller municipalities such as Niagara-on-the-Lake use staff for parking enforcement as only two to five enforcement officers are required in these smaller communities. FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS Parking Control officers issue parking violations to vehicles in contravention of City or Regional bylaws which in turn generates revenue to support the staff compliment and provide an extra source of revenue for the City of Niagara Falls LEGAL IMPLICATIONS Canadian Corps of Commissionaires issue parking infractions based on municipal and regional parking bylaws and defend such issuance in an Ontario Provincial Court when contested by the recipient of the infraction. .Recommended by: /~~-t' Karl Dren, Directo~Transportation Services Approved by: Respectfully submitted: Jo Castr , Director of Building Services Ed Dujlovic,~ Executive Director of Community Services Ken Todd, Chief Administrative Officer Paul Brown ~~~ ~ .. .~~~~~ REPORT TO: His Worship Mayor Ted Salci and Members of the Municipal Council City of Niagara Falls, Ontario SUBMITTED BY: Transportation Services SUBJECT: TS-2010-12 Response to "Toys for Tickets Campaign" RECOMMENDATION That the Toys for Tickets program be continued in 2010 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY TS-2010-12 January 25, 2010 Toys for Tickets campaign takes the value of a parking infraction and allows it to be substituted with the donation of a toy or gift card of equal or greater value. These donations are then given to local charities during the second week of December so they may be distributed as Christmas gifts to families in need. BACKGROUND In 2009, Council directed staff to proceed with the implementation of the third annual "Toys for Tickets" campaign. All parking violations issued between November 9 and December 4 were eligible to be paid through this program. The public is made aware of the program through the newspaper ads and an insert included with each infraction issued during the campaign. The following outlines the ticket values and the amounts contributed to the Salvation Army and Project S.H.A. R.E. Tickets Issued Nov 9 to $ Value of Dec 4th 2009 2,159 Tickets $52,017.00 Tickets Paid through $ Value of Value of Actual 2009 Toys for Tickets 113 Tickets $2,675.00 Contributions $3,100.00 Program Tickets Paid through $ Value of Value of Actual 2008 Toys for Tickets 113 Tickets $2.360.00 Contributions $3,082.00 Program = Tickets Paid through $ Value of Value of Actual 2007 Toys for Tickets 99 Tickets $1,975.00 Contributions $2,506.00 Program January 25, 2010 - 2 - TS-2010-12 ANALYSIS/RATIONALE The City received 13% more than the face value of the parking ticket in gifts, coupons and gift cards, which were then distributed equally to Salvation Army and Project S.H.A.R.E.
