NEW BUSINESS PBD-2014-43 Niagaraj 'nlls August 12, 2014 REPORT TO: Mayor James M. Diodati and Members of the Municipal Council City of Niagara Falls, Ontario SUBMITTED BY: Planning, Building & Development SUBJECT: PBD-2014-43 Request for Grant to Relieve Payment of Double Permit Fees Due to Commencement of Construction Without a Building Permit— Pinewood Homes (Niagara) Ltd. RECOMMENDATION That Council respectfully decline the request of Pinewood Niagara Builders for a grant or rebate of penalty in the amount of $6,519.70. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Building By-law 2013-178 dictates that any person or corporation, who commences construction without first receiving a permit to commence such work, shall in addition to any other penalty pay an additional fee equal to 100% of the amount calculated as the full permit fee. This additional permit fee was assessed with respect to each of the five building permits for the 6873 to 6855 Freeman Street townhouse development due to the commencement of construction prior to issuance of the building permits. A meeting on site with City Staff and a representative from Pinewood Niagara Builders confirmed that works had been completed for the townhouse units prior to the issuance of permits. As such the additional permit fees were requested to be paid prior to issuance of the building permits for this development. The builder, Pinewood Niagara Builders, did pay such fees to allow their building permits to be issued, however did so in protest. They have subsequently submitted the attached letter requesting consideration for reimbursement of the additional building permit fees paid. BACKGROUND Through the passing of the Building By-law 2013-178 the requirement for payment of double permit fees was reinforced from language in previous versions of the building by- law. The purpose of the requirement for additional fees is to account for the additional works necessary due to the commencement of construction which exceeds that of work required where the building permit process is followed. The use of such a mechanism has been challenged in the court system and upheld as it represents a reasonable fee for the additional works caused by the commencement of building without a permit. August 12, 2014 - 2 - PBD-2014-43 After the building permit applications had been made, it came to the attention of Building Services staff that construction had allegedly commenced on the sites despite the fact that the permits had yet to be issued. Upon investigation of the site it was confirmed that Lor struction had indeed commenced and been completed beyond the property line with the installation of services. The works had been done without building permits and without proper inspections. Upon confirmation of this work, Building Services staff issued the appropriate Building Code Order to Comply requesting the permits be obtained prior to construction continuing. Further to the issuance of an Order to Comply, Building Services Staff notified the applicant, Pinewood Niagara Builders, that additional building permit fees would be required due to confirmation of the construction without a permit. In response to this notification a meeting was requested on site. The meeting on site with City Staff and a representative from Pinewood Niagara Builders confirmed that works had been completed to extend the water and sewer service pipes from the property line into the site in preparation for the construction of the townhouse units. As such the need for the r,orom mi+ foc in nr, r,linri r.n ,i+h +hn ..+n ..F +L... ����I,J�.. D. I.. .... .. , r.. nL �. v n i 1/4.1/4../II IrJIICAI IL.c vviu I u Ic i cquII I I IGI IW UI a IG LJUIK.111 Ig uy-lave vvaj also confirmed. In order to allow their building permits to be issued, Pinewood Niagara Builders did pay the additional $6,519.70 which was required prior to the release of the toe nilm its Since the payment of these additional fees was in protest, the attached correspondence received from Pinewood Niagara Builders is submitted as the request of the applicant for consideration for reimbursement of the additional paid fees. The building by-law does not provide for an ability of staff or council to waive such fees and thus any reimbursement of fees would need to be addressed through a grant provided by Council in the amount of the additional fees. ANALYSIS/RATIONALE At the May 8, 2012 Council, direction was provided for double permit fees under the Ontario Building Code for constructing without a permit. Building Services staff has followed the provisions of the Building By-law and have applied the additional permit fee requirement fairly and justly as it has done on other instances. The language of the by- law was prepared in regard to this issue to ensure fairness to all in the assessment of these fees. For this purpose the assessment of such fees is not discretionary, it is mandatory for all, thus eliminating any perceived favouritism or special treatment. Furthermore the establishment of such fees has been justified as part of the cost recovery mechanism for Building Services as mandated by the Ontario Building Code. FINANCIAL/STAFFING/LEGAL IMPLICATIONS The collection of the additional fee is within the authority of the municipality identified through the Building By-law. Since this fee is warranted and justified through the by-law and there is no ability to discretionally waive such fees, the only recourse should Council wish to approve reimbursement of the paid fees would be to do so through the August 12, 2014 - 3 - PBD-2014-43 issuance of a grant in the amount of $6, 519.70. This grant would need to be funded by the municipality and not through the revenues collected for building permits. CONCLUSION The builder in question is well aware of the rules and requirements for permits to be obtained prior to the commencement of construction and despite their reasoning it was confirmed that construction had in fact begun without a permit. The additional fees charged for the Building Permit have also been confirmed to be applicable. Council had previously requested that double fees be set as a dis-incentive to any builder who proceeds with construction in advance of a building permit having been issued. Therefore in order to not set a precedent whereby the provisions of the by-law are circumvented thus creating unfair treatment to all; it is respectfully recommended that the request for reimbursement for the additional fees be denied.

Diodati and Members of the Municipal Council City of Niagara Falls, Ontario SUBMITTED BY: Planning, Building & Development SUBJECT: PBD-2014-48 Request by Niagara Olympia Homes for Consolidation of Conditional Permits at Pettit Avenue Development RECOMMENDATION That Council approve the proposed amendment to the building by-law to modify the requirements for fees and deposits with respect to conditional permit agreements and that provisions within the amendment be considered to have been in effect since of June 16, 2014. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Correspondence from Niagara Olympia Homes has been received requesting reconsideration of the current conditional permit process employed by Building Services. The current permit process, conditional or otherwise, requires that a separate building permit be obtained for each building being constructed on a site. The request by Niagara Olympia Homes is to consolidate all of the buildings under one permit thus eliminating the need to obtain, and provide payment for, individual permits for each of the structures being constructed. Unfortunately, consolidation of permits as requested is not permitted since the Ontario Building Code legislates that construction of every building requires a permit. If the buildings being proposed were all one structure, Building Services would be able to consider them one building and require only one permit. However since the proposed construction involves multiple independent buildings a permit is required for each building. As an example, if a residential home was being constructed and a detached garage was also proposed on the same lot, a separate permit would be required for each of the structures. Since this practise is dictated by the Ontario Building Code, it cannot be modified by the municipality as would be the case if it were a requirement of a municipal by-law which can be modified by Council. Therefore Building Services is unable to accommodate the request of Niagara Olympia Homes to consolidate all of the permits into one. In light of the request however Staff has reviewed the current fees and language of the building by-law to determine if it would be possible to reduce the associated fees and provide flexibility with regard to the related deposits for conditional permit agreements. August 12, 2014 -2 - PBD-2014-48 The Building By-law 2013-178 currently requires that a fee of $1,500 be paid in addition to the regular building permit fees for the issuance of a conditional permit. These fees are assessed to recover the costs associated with the additional efforts required internally to process and administer a conditional permit agreement. When considering the fee for conditional permits in establishing the new Building By-law in late 2013, the worst case scenario was used and a cost of$1,500 was set. After further consideration brought about by the real life scenario of the Niagara Olympia Homes project, the by-law has been reviewed and it has been determined that the cost of $1 ,500 is unreasonable to expect for many smaller projects which may require the use of a conditional permit. For this reason, Staff are respectfully recommending through the proposed amendment to the Building By-law to reduce the required fee to $500. This fee is more representative of the more common process involved in most conditional permit agreements as opposed to the worst case scenario figure. Further ..1 V_ the _ _I of r Further to u fe reduction fees, the proposed amendment wiii also provide additional improvement to the language in the schedule of fees to address the need for deposits relating to the conditional permit agreement. The sole purpose of the deposits is to provide the municipality with securities to demolish the building should the applicant not follow through with their obligations under the conditional permit agreement. The flexibility provided by the proposed language will allow staff to work with the applicant while establishing guidelines for the continued requirement of such deposits. Both aspects of the proposed amendment to the by-law will serve to allow the conditional permit agreement process to be more accommodating the development community. BACKGROUND Typically conditional building permits are utilized where approvals have yet to be granted to satisfy the compliance of applicable law therefore restricting the ability to issue a building permit. The use of the conditional permit agreement allows for an agreement to be struck between the municipality and the applicant whereby the applicant agrees to remove the building construction in any case where approvals are ultimately not granted. In exchange Building Services can allow construction to proceed for an agreed upon stage. In the situation at hand with the Niagara Olympia Homes project the need to proceed prior to approvals is not the reason for the use of the conditional permit process. Approvals have been granted in respect to the project and the Site Plan agreement is in place save and except for the submission of the necessary securities that would allow for final legal registration of the agreement. As long as the securities for the site plan agreement remain outstanding, the site plan agreement cannot be formally put in place. August 12, 2014 - 3 - PBD-2014-48 Planning Building and Development staff has made significant efforts to work with Niagara Olympia Homes to assist in facilitating the issuance of their permits for this project despite the outstanding securities. It must be stressed that the need for the securities and registration of the site plan agreement are paramount to ensure that the provisions of the agreement are legally binding and the development is constructed in accordance with the provisions stipulated within it. ANALYSIS/RATIONALE The amended conditional permit fee will more accurately represent the additional costs incurred for the issuance and administration of conditional permit agreements. This fee is fairer to applicants which will permit the process to be less prohibitive due to cost. The requirement for proper securities to be taken provides for assurances that the City will possess the necessary funds to correct any defunct projects that do not comply with the terms of the agreement without the need to burden the tax base for the associated costs. Ultimately the deposits are returned in full as part of the issuance of the full building permit, if they have not had to be drawn upon during the process. FINANCIAL/STAFFING/LEGAL IMPLICATIONS Through the implementation of the proposed amendment to the Building By-law, fees associated with conditional permit fee agreements will be reduced to $500 from the original $1,500. Retroactively dating the effective date of the amendment to June 16, 2014 will effect five conditional building permits all of which being issued to Niagara Olympia Homes for their construction on the Pettit Avenue project. The result of this amendment will see Niagara Olympia Homes be reimbursed $1,000 for each of the permits they previously obtained for a total of $5,000. Any future conditional permit submission will be charged the amended rate of $500. CONCLUSION While Building Services is unable to accommodate the request of Niagara Olympia Homes to consolidate all the necessary permits into one due to legislative requirements, efforts have been made to lessen the financial impact for the necessary permits to facilitate the project moving forward. Furthermore the effective date of the amendment being retroactive to June 16, 2014 will allow for Niagara Olympia Homes to be refunded a portion of the conditional permit fees which were previously paid under protest. It should be noted that while Planning Building and Development staff will continue to work with applicants to facilitate their projects, it cannot be encouraged for conditional permits to utilize to forego paying the necessary securities for development agreements as it severely undermines the ability of the municipality to protect the interest of both the tax payers and the City.

The Project on Pettit Avenue is a proposed 69 unit retirement complex which will benefit our aging population, attract retirees to the city and provide consumers for neighbourhood businesses. As provided by city by-laws Niagara Olympia Homes applied for a conditional permit agreement so that construction could begin on the foundation and footings for the main buildings and the garages. A conditional building agreement is a legal device which allows building to commence even though all city requirements for a building permit have not been met. In exchange the city places the burden of liability upon the builder. The conditional permit agreement still means that the builder must seek individual building permits as required by the city. When submitting my application for a conditional permit agreement for the Pettit Avenue Project I was told that the agreement would only cover the main building and each garage would need a separate agreement. The cost for a conditional permit agreement is 51,500.00 ( this fee was set out to achieve administrative cost recovery ). Because the project on Pettit Avenue has 12 more garages to be built the administrative fees for obtaining a conditional permit agreements for the project would be $19,500.00 Clearly this amount goes well beyond cost recovery. The garages are part of the approved site plan and in order to build as efficiently as possible it is important that the garage foundations are built at the same time as the main building. To date I paid 57,500 for 5 conditional permit agreements ($1,500.00 x 4 garages = $6,000 paid under protest and 51,500.00 for the main building). While still 8 more garage foundations require to he built due to the site conditions. These garages have always been part of the site plan and are integral to the success of the project. The building department is asking for another 512,000.00 ($1,500.00 x8) to duplicate 8 more conditional agreements. It is not reasonable or fair to expect that a separate agreement to he drawn for each of the garages. Since it is one property/ one project it only makes sense to have one agreement addressing all the structures. Therefore I am asking Council: to include all 12 garages on the main Conditional Permit (have one Agreement instead of 12 duplicates Agreement) and reimburse Niagara Olympia Homes the $6.000 paid under protest. Thank you for your consideration Respectfully George Bandi President of Niagara Olympia Homes � i I�HV-LV 1,4-v4 NiagarraaagIls August 12, 2014 REPORT TO: Mayor James M.

The tender for Contract No. 2014-13, Robinson Street Sewer Separation and Full Road Reconstruction (Main Street to Stanley Avenue) was opened on Tuesday, July 29, 2014. Construction was proposed to start after September 2, 2014. Three (3) bids were submitted. The contract amount available for the construction portion of this project in the 2014 Capital Budget is $2,100,685. The low bid for the project was submitted by Centennial Infrastructure (Niagara) Inc. in the amount of$2,095,274. However, this bid was corrected by staff, in accordance with tender procedures, due to errors in the tender document, resulting in a revised bid by Centennial Infrastructure(Niagara) Inc. of$2,260,319. With this adjustment, Centennial Infrastructure (Niagara) Inc. was no longer the low bid. As a result, the low bid became Provincial Construction (Niagara Falls) Limited at $2,231,873. Although the low bid, the bid from Provincial Construction (Niagara Falls) Limited was $131 ,873 over the approved Capital Budget amount for this project. Due to the fact that the low bid is $131,873 over the approved budget, and due to the fact that only three (3) bids were submitted, staff decided to cancel this tender and re tender the project in the Fall 2014.

Diodati and Members of the Municipal Council City of Niagara Falls, Ontario SUBMITTED BY: Planning, Building & Development SUBJECT: PBD-2014-42 AM-2013-016, Zoning By-law Amendment Application 6479 Montrose Road Applicant: 2372198 Ontario Inc. c/o Angelo Butera Agent: Michael Allen, ACK Architects Proposal: 3 Storey, 30 Unit Apartment Building RECOMMENDATION That Council approve the Zoning By-law amendment application to change the zoning of the property to a site specific Residential Apartment 5B Density (R5B) zone to permit the construction of a 3 storey, 30 unit apartment building, as detailed in the report. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Angelo Butera has requested a Zoning By-law amendment to rezone the property known as 6479 Montrose Road a site specific Residential Apartment 5B Density(R5B)zone which would permit the construction of a 3 storey, 30 unit apartment building. The amendment can be supported because: • it will assist the City in achieving intensification targets established by the Province for the City's built-up area; • it will make a more efficient use of urban land and existing infrastructure; • the subject land is located on Montrose Road which is identified in the City's Official Plan as an arterial road. The proposal to develop a 3 storey, 30 unit apartment building on the land is within the intent and purpose of the City's Official Plan; • the development will assist in providing additional housing choices in the neighbourhood; • the apartment building is of the same height as apartment buildings already existing in the neighbourhood and will be compatible with surrounding land uses; • Montrose Road is capable of accommodating the modest traffic generated by the development; and • the project is transit supportive. August 12, 2014 - 2 - PBD-2014-42 BACKGROUND Proposal The applicant has requested a Zoning By-law amendment for the 0 39 hectare (1 acre) parcel known as 6479 Montrose Road. The amendment is requested to permit the construction of a 3 storey, 30 unit apartment building. Schedules 2 and 3 show details of the proposal. When the application was first filed, a 4 storey, 31 unit apartment building was proposed to be sited on the north side of the property. A neighbourhood meeting was held in May. In response to some of the concerns raised by area residents and the Region, the height of the building was reduced by a storey, shifted southward and the entrance to the building and the driveway were relocated to the north side of the property. The land is currently zoned Residential Single Family 1D Density (R1 D), in part, and Residential Single Family and Two Family (R2), in part, in accordance with Zoning By-law No. 79-200. The zoning of the land is requested to be changed to a Residential Apartment 5B Density (R5B) zone with site specific lot area, landscaped open space and parking regulations. Planning staff had previously encouraged a land swap with the rear church lands to the north to facilitate the completion of Laurentian Court off Armstrong Drive. This exchange never materialized. Site Conditions and Surrounding Land Uses The property is currently vacant and was formerly occupied by a single detached dwelling. There are a number of mature trees on the property, particularly towards the rear. A place of worship and associated parking and amenity areas are located to the north and west of the subject land. Most properties located to the south contain single detached dwellings. A mix of dwellings, include single detached and semi-detached dwellings and two, 3 storey apartment buildings, are located to the east. 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 from a Provincial or Regional perspective. The proposal will help the City achieve intensification targets for new development within the City's built-up area and will provide additonal housing choices in the neighbourhood; The project will make a more efficient use of urban land and existing infrastructure and provide a choice of housing in the area; August 12, 2014 - 3 - PBD-2014-42 - A Phase 1 Environmental Site Assessment completed by the applicant has concluded the land is suitable for residential land use. No further environmental investigation is recommended. - A Noise Brief completed by the applicant concludes that the project as designed and certain features are sufficient to meet Ministry of Environment guidelines. The Region will review the need for warning clauses at the site plan approval stage. The Region has no concerns with the location of the driveway now that it has been shifted to the north side of the property. A three (3) metre road widening will be required from the property to achieve the required right-of-way width of 13.1 metres as meassured from the centreline of Montrose Road. • Transportation Services No objections to the rezoning. The site is serviced by weekday and weekend transit service. • Municipal Works, Parks Design - No objections to the rezoning. A servicing/grading plan, detailing how stormwater will be dealt with, and a landscape plan will be required at the site plan stage. A cash-in-lieu of parkland dedication will be required when the project is developed. • Fire Services. Legal Services, Niagara Falls Transit, Building Services - No objections to the rezoning. • Resident Comments - A total of seven (7) letters of objection were received on the original and revised proposal. Some of the letters express concerns about the earlier 4 storey proposal, including the building height and whether it fits in with the surrounding neighbourhood, and the orientation of the building entrance towards properties to the south. Other letters cite concerns about traffic, loss of privacy, the potential of lower income housing, lighting and garbage and impacts on surrounding property values. Neighbourhood Open House Eight neighbours attended a neighbourhood open house held on May 1st to introduce the initial 4 storey, 31 unit proposal to area property owners. Concerns were expressed about the height of the building and resulting loss of privacy for adjacent residents, the orientation of the building entrance adjacent to properties to the south, traffic impacts, the potential of low income housing, trees to screen abutting properties, lighting impacts and the condition of the existing property (dead and dying trees and drainage). August 12, 2014 -4 - PBD-2014-42 The applicant's architect noted the project would not be developed as low income housing, but as a condominium corporation owned by a single entity, with the individual units rented out at market rates. When asked what changes they would like to see to the proposal, residents indicated a building with a maximum height of 2 storeys to reflect surrounding development, and moving the building entrance to face Montrose Road. Seven neighbours attended a second neighbourhood open house which was held on June 25`h to present the current 3 storey, 30 unit proposal to area property owners. The neighbours present reiterated concerns about loss of privacy and asked questions about site plan control, tree planting, the waste disposal enclosure and lighting. The applicant's architect indicated that larger, tree spaded trees would be planted to provide buffering for neighbours and the waste disposal will be fully enclosed to deter any rodents. The applicant also indicated that lighting would conform to current site plan standards to mitigate Imparts nn ci irrni inrlinn racirlPntc ANALYSIS 1. Provincial Policy Statement and Growth Plan Provincial policies require 40% of all residential development to occur through intensification within the City's built-up area by the year 2015. To meet this target further development of multiple unit housing within established areas of the City is necessary. Approval of the requested zoning will assist the City in meeting its intensification targets and make a more efficient use of urban land and existing infrastructure. 2. Official Plan The subject property is designated Residential in the City's Official Plan and located within the built-up area. New housing units (intensification) are to be designed to blend into the existing lot fabric, streetscape and built form of a neighbourhood. A harmonious mix of housing is encouraged so that at any one time a variety of housing types will be available. Apartment buildings up to 4 storeys in height and 75 units per hectare should be located on collector roads and designed with a street presence that is in character with the surrounding neighbourhood. In addition, setbacks should be appropriate for the building height proposed and greater where abutting lands are zoned for single or semi detached dwellings. The proposed development complies with the Official Plan as follows: The development makes use of an underutilised parcel of land and will broaden the range and supply of housing in the neighbourhood. - The subject property is located on Montrose Road, an arterial road, which is expected to carry high traffic volumes. - The building is 3 storeys in height. Thirty dwelling units represents a minor rounding up of one unit to a density of 76 units per hectare. The proposal has the same number of storeys as the nearby apartment dwellings. August 12, 2014 - 5 - PBD-2014-42 The project is designed to maintain the current streetscape character by being proposed in line with the front yard of the place of worship to the north. In response to the concerns of area residents and the Region the driveway was shifted to the north side of the property. This design will reduce the potential for the noise impacts on adjacent properties to the south. It also makes the entire south side yard available for landscaping which can assist in screening the building. The developer has agreed to address this at the site plan approval stage. The subject property is adequately separated from dwellings to the north and west by a property containing a place of worship. Montrose Road can accommodate the traffic from the development. The applicant has provided a traffic brief for the development which identified peak hour traffic generation of 19 vehicles, or an average of 1 new vehicle trip for every 3 minutes. The Regional Municipality of Niagara, who has jurisdiction over Montrose Road, has no concerns with respect to the additional traffic generated by this development and is pleased that the driveway has been shifted to the north side of the property. The site is located on a bus route. 3. Zoning By-law The current zoning of the property (R1 D and R2) permits single detached, semi- detached and/or duplex dwellings. The zoning of the lands is requested to be changed to Residential Apartment 5B Density (R5B) with site specific regulations to accommodate the proposed apartment dwelling. The proposed development meets most of the standards contained in the R5B zone, including front and rear yard depth, side yard widths and building height. The following chart compares the current standards of the R5B zone with the proposed regulations: Standards Proposed Minimum Lot Area 133 square metres/unit 130 square metres/unit Minimum Number of Parking 1.4 spaces/unit 1.25 spaces/unit Spaces Minimum Landscaped Open Space 35% of the lot area 34% of the lot area The requested site specific regulations are supportable. The minor reduction in the lot area allows the number of allowable dwelling units to be increased from 29 to 30. The requested parking standard reduces required parking from 42 spaces to 38 and allows for retention of desired landscaping. The minor reduction in parking can be supported given the site's location on 2 transit routes. The proposed one percent reduction in landscaped open space will not result in any visual impacts on surrounding properties. Although not requested, the minimum front yard setback should be increased from 7.5 metres to 22 metres to ensure the project maintains the existing streetscape as noted above. August 12, 2014 - 6 - PBD-2014-42 4. Site Plan Control/Condominium Approval Prior to obtaining a Building Permit, the developer will be required to obtain site plan approval. Many of the concerns that have been raised by surrounding neighbours would be addressed through the following - The submission of a stormwater management plan to demonstrate surrounding properties will not be adversely impacted by storm drainage. - The submission of lighting details to ensure that floodlighting does not project onto surrounding properties. - The submission of a tree preservation/landscape plan. This plan would determine if any of the trees on the property are appropriate for saving and would detail the planting of species which will adequately buffer ci irrni inning properties. - Details of the waste disposal enclosure. To address resident concerns, the enclosure should be sealed. As an alternative to seeking site plan approval and then condominium approval, the applicant could apply for condominium approval only, but construction would not be able to commence until after draft approval granted. The same requirements u�✓r vvui was The .:�ui�i that apply to site plan approval would apply to condominium approval. FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS The proposed development will generate development charge contributions and cash-in -lieu of parkland payments for the City. One of the area residents' concerns is that the proposal will have a negative impact on property values. Although this issue is raised from time to time, it is not a planning matter. CITY'S STRATEGIC COMMITMENT The proposal is supported by the Well Planned City strategic priority in that it provides for infill development that occurs in an orderly and efficient manner to take advantage of existing infrastructure.

The proposed site change will have many negative effects on the surrounding area. No other building in the near surrounding area is as tall as the proposed,this will greatly block the view by surrounding houses and offer far less yard privacy. The proposed low income portion of the building will affect our safety and security in a negative manner in an otherwise safe, secure and family friendly area. I would go to support a maximum of a two story building on the property, as that is common in our neighbourhood. Amongst the neighbours I have spoken to I have not found any support for this proposed project. We feel that this will affect our property values in such a manner that all properties around will feel a need to contact MPAC for a reassessment and probable lowering of our property values.

My house is adjoining 6479 Montrose Road on the south side of the lot. The garbage bins are at the end of my yard practically leaning on my fence. This will attract all kinds of animals such as racoons, skunks, rats and the foul odor will cause an awful smell in my backyard living space. How can I have bbq's and friendly gatherings when the people who live in the new building will have the ability to watch me and my guests 24/7? This is unfair to me and all who live around that building. My privacy and theirs will be eliminated. This property is zoned to be an R1 or R2 and that is how it should stay. An apartment building would ruin the character of this neighbourhood. In conclusion, I am writing this letter to oppose an apartment building being built on 6479 Montrose Road. I am also opposing the zoning amendment for same address. This is NOT beneficial to my family or my backyard living. The only one it does benefit is the developer.

The new proposed building runs completely across the width of my whole two properties(approx. 150 feet) and against my large fence. That is approximately 10 family units looking onto my yard. It will feel like my family and I will be on exhibit. I purchased the house I live in almost 20 years ago because of the privacy it offered and I've made it into my home. I would not have purchased this house if I had any idea a 3 story apartment building could potentially be built there. \N;th that in mind, my property value will diminish greatly with potentially 10 families peering into my yard. Who wants to buy that?Would you? This type of building being erected in an established, low-rise neighbourhood is unfair to all of us who live around it, especially the adjacent properties. Did you know you can see about 6.5 miles away from 22 feet in the air(3rd floor balcony)? I understand trees, buildings and pollution could hamper that 6.5 mile view, but not into my backyard. There will be no buffer.The proposed building is too high for that property which in turn totally invades my privacy and many other homeowners' privacy in the surrounding area. I also have concerns about large diesel garbage trucks and idling vehides by the entrance of the building. This would be negatively affecting the quality of air in my backyard and the surrounding backyards. peaking of quality of air in my backyard, the huge garbage bins along my fence don't impress me either. What about traffic?The list goes on... Flea_. be advised that this letter is my second formal written submission to advise you that I am Otto any change in the Zoning for 6479 Montrose Road, Niagara Falls and furthermore am STRONGLY OPPOSED to an apartment/condo building being constructed in a residentially zoned, low-rise neighbourhood. It is zoned an R1 or P2 and that's how it should stay. One family borne or two family semi/duplex. That is acceptable. In conclusion, and by copy of this letter given to the Mayor, all Members of Coundl, the C1ty Clerk, Director of Ranning arid Renner 2, I ask you to deny any zoning changes to the property at 6479 Montrose Road due to the negative impact it would have on my family and the surrounding properties.

We purchased our property(on Badger Rd) in large part to the lack of rear neighbours and the privacy. We are not comfortable with having so many units overlooking our yard. We have a deck that we enjoy and more importantly we have young children who play with their friends out there. The thought of apartment units having a clear view of that is unacceptable. With the proposed con'stru:icnn there would also be the need for Jut pst'er units and we are not fond of having garbage which may cc cony not be maintained on a regular bask, in our backyard. This '.Viii cause odour and could attract wildlife. Again, unacceptable. 0 units rrue ?n:s how many cars? Coming and going, doors slamming and exhaust fumes!! There is also the concern over the lights Ji the building =i5 wellas the lights that would , � required in the parking lot. How can you enjoy your backyard with bright lights beaming all night long? Again, with small children, we do not want these lights outside their bedroom windows. In summary,we think this is a ridiculous proposal for the area and would hope that the city would think of the homeowners in the area surrounding this complex. .ic ` E JUN 26201t4 PLANNING Planning 0 Scanned File: ri August 6, 2014 Mr Andrew Bryce City of Niagara Falls-Planner 2 4310 Queen Street Niagara Fats Ontario L2E 6X5 RE: Zoning By-law Amendment Applicario 1-Cif2 File:AM-2013-018 for 6479 Montrose Road Dear Mr Bryce, My name is Steve Lambert and I own two properties on Badger Road, Niagara Falls. I am writing to you to express my concern and opposition about the pending decision to build a 3 story, 30 Unit apartment building behind my home, basically in my backyard. The fact that the developer has decreased the building from four stories to three stories is not a solution.This makes the building even longer now covering both of my properties, allowing 10 families,20 windows and 10 patio doors, to peer into my backyard at all times. My privacy will disappear and so will any leisure activities that I once enjoyed in my yard, like hot tubing, family bar-b-queues, swimming in my pool,etc. The developer has changed the plans to move the driveway to the ether side of the building,which in effect, moves the building even closer to my property. Now on top of no privacy, allowing for my yard to also be the garbage pit from people throwing things off their balconies i.e. Cigarette butts. I also have concerns about the garbage bins right ai my fence and varmints like rats, raccoons and skunks. What about the smell?This would he in very close proximity to my fence line, negatively affecting the quality of air in my backyard. The traffic congestion trying to get from Badger Road to Montrose Road already takes up to 10 minutes to merge into traffic,what is going to happen adding.30 more families and their visitors to that? Increased traffic poses a safety risk to the public and puts unnecessary congestion on our street. The road is not accommodating enough for all the traffic. Please be advised that this letter is my formal written submission to advise you that I am OPPOSED to any change in the Zoning for 6479 Montrose Road, Niagara Fails and furthermore am STRONGLY OPPOSED to an apartment/condo building being constructed in a residentially zoned, low-rise neighbourhood.

Diodati and Members of Council City of Niagara Falls, Ontario SUBMITTED BY: Finance Department SUBJECT: F-2014-35 Monthly Tax Receivables Report RECOMMENDATION That Council receive the Monthly Tax Receivables report for information purposes. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This report is prepared monthly to provide Council with an update on the City's property tax receivables. Outstanding taxes as of June 30, 2014 were $22.5 million compared to $22.9 million in 2013. During June, tax receivables as a percentage of taxes billed decreased from 36.1% in 2013 to 35.6% in 2014. The City's finance staff has had continued success in resolving properties that are subject to registration for 2014. At this stage, 83.3% of properties have developed payment arrangements or have paid in full. There are currently thirty-six properties 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 Tax collection for 2014 improved slightly during the month of June. Table 1 shows that taxes outstanding at June 30, 2014 are $22.5 million. This represents a decrease from $22.9 million in arrears for the same period in 2013. Finance staff continues to actively pursue property owners in arrears. Table 2 provides the breakdown of outstanding taxes by assessment class. The majority of outstanding taxes are for residential and commercial properties. The chart August 12, 2014 F-2014-35 shows that the taxes owing from the commercial property class has decreased from a year ago, whereas the residential property class has increased. 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, 2014, 389 properties were subject to registration. Table 3 summarizes the progress of these actions after six months of activity. This table shows 83.3% of the tax accounts or 324 properties have been paid in full or the owners have made suitable payment arrangements. During June, twelve accounts were paid in full. In addition, the number of accounts with suitable payment arrangements including full payments increased from 78.4% (May) to 83.3% (June). 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. Table 4 identifies the properties and associated tax arrears scheduled for tax sales in iIL IC future. During 1I_IC10nth of June, two registered properties vvere rcuCc. ied arid six properties were registered. The outstanding taxes for registered properties represents 3.9% 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 June 30, 2014 is 35.6% which is a slight decrease from 2013's value of 36.1%. The municipality kInn a record 'of full collection and earns significant nonc,Ry rovonUoc fv offset the higher measure.

Diodati and Members of the Municipal Council City of Niagara Falls, Ontario SUBMITTED BY: Human Resources/ Fire Services SUBJECT: HR-2014-02 Epinephrine Auto Injectors RECOMMENDATION That the Fire Department equip all front line trucks with Epinephrine Auto Injectors (EAI's), both adult and child doses; and That staff continue to monitor the City of Hamilton pilot project before determining whether to place EAI's in all municipally owned buildings. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Anaphylaxis is a serious allergic reaction that is rapid and can cause death if not responded to quickly. The use of an epinephrine auto-injector, when properly administered, may relax muscles to make breathing easier and reverse a sudden drop in blood pressure. Staff was directed to investigate the efforts of the City of Hamilton related to the introduction of epinephrine auto-injectors (EAI). A recommendation report at the May 13th meeting, and various deputations, lead to Council directing staff to take the lead regarding the provision of EAI's, municipally. Since that time, staff have done their due diligence, investigating the legalities, practicalities and logistics of implementing Council's direction. BACKGROUND INFORMATION At the May 13, 2014, meeting Council considered recommendation report CD-2014-07, Epi-Pens. Council heard from a representative of Pfizer Canada, producer of EAI's known as Epi-Pens and a local restaurateur, who promotes allergy-free products at their establishment. The approved motion of Council from the meeting was "that the city take the lead by having staff investigate the provision of Epinephrine Auto-injectors at all City facilities, and on Fire Trucks, and consider a bulk purchase of the Epinephrine Auto-injectors. Since the meeting, a group of staff have been doing their due diligence, investigating costs, legislative authority and liabilities related to Council's motion. AugusA........4 A2f OAAA 2f IIn nAAA nn t �c, w I`Y - c - 111N-cv IN-vc The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) cites the leading cause of anaphylaxis is food allergy, especially allergies to peanuts and tree nuts. However, medications like penicillin, insect stings and latex can also cause allergic reactions. MAID states that symptoms can begin within several minutes to several hours and can involve skin mucosal tissue. (tissue lining the respiratory and GI tracts) Trouble breathing and or a drop in blood pressure (pale, weak pulse, confusion, loss of consciousness) are other symptoms. In May 2005, the Ontario government passed into law, Bill 3: An Act to Protect Anaphylactic Pupils, which affects all publicly funded schools in Ontario. Named "Sabrina's Law" in honour of Sabrina Shannon, the law became effective January 1, 2006. This law requires that every school board in Ontario establish and maintain an anaphylaxis policy. It also requires that principals develop individual plans for pupils at risk of anaphylaxis. It is the first legislation in the world to protect children with life threatening allergies. CaiII.c's Law is specifically. ue igled km- VI 1ari0 schools defining LC requirements of teachers and principals alike. Further to this, Section 20 (g) (Duties of Teachers) of Regulation 298 under the Education Act speaks to a teacher's legal obligation to ensure that all reasonable safety procedures are carried out. Currently, there is no pending legislation that would require public facilities to make available EAI's. As outlined in CD-2014-07, the Hamilton Board of Health, in April, approved the recommendation of a one-year pilot project, at a cost to the City of Hamilton of $82,000. The program will see security guards at Eastgate and Jackson Square malls trained to recognize and respond to a severe allergic reaction. In conjunction with the pilot project, Anaphylaxis Canada will be providing education to the general al public and promoting personal lal al..l..0untability plans Io U Ione that I lave allergies and their own EAI. At the end of the pilot project, McMaster University will share their findings so City of Hamilton officials can make informed decisions on the initiative going forward. ANALYSIS/RATIONALE The average response time within the urban boundaries for the Niagara Falls Fire Service is approximately 5.5 minutes. Given the fact that they our Fire Services personal are extensively trained, the preferred location for the EAI's would be to equip the Fire Services vehicles. Response times of EMS providers would be similar. To administer, the Fire Department will require a standing administration order from the Medical director, which will not be an issue. The order will have limitations as to when Firefighters will be allowed to administer the EAI's. Although representations at the May 13th Council meeting spoke to the ease of administering the EAI's, as in the Hamilton pilot project, it is prudent to train the administrators of the EAI's. Firefighters will require about 2 hours of training annually for the bi-annual certification March 26, 2013 -3 - HR-201.401 Similarly equipping all City facilities would require a similar order from the Medical Director. Dr. Doug Munkley, Medical Director, Niagara Fire Fighter Defibrillation Program advises against the practice of making EAI's in publicly owned facilities. (see attached letter) "The drug epinephrine is not without significant side effects. Its use when not administered by the individual who is actually having the allergic reaction is considered by the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario as a "controlled medical act".... Further, it is my medical opinion that having epinephrine auto injectors available for use by the public in City owned buildings is not advisable. This is by no means an accepted public health measure at this time." FINANCIAL / STAFFING/ LEGAL IMPLICATIONS All front line trucks will require two, Adult & Child EAI's. An EAI is approximately $125.00 per pen. The anticipated budget costs are between $7,500 to $10,000. The EAI's have a shelf life of 18 months. As this expense has not been budgeted, it is suggested that the program be implemented for 2015. As outlined in the analysis section, a directive from the Medical Director would be necessary to authorize the use of EAI's. The Medical Director will issue such a directive for front line Fire personnel but is recommending against expanding the order for all City staff. Nonetheless, staff that are trained in first aid can assist a person to take their own prescribed EAI, which is standard Provincial practice. Staff will continue to monitor the Hamilton test project, which will possibly establish protocols for all municipalities. CITY'S STRATEGIC COMMITMENT This project is intended to support Council's strategic priority to improve the community health and safety and customer service excellence.

As you are aware, at present your staff are trained, certified and able to administer a patient's own epinephrine by auto-injector should they encounter an individual in severe distress from anaphylaxis. It would be my opinion that it would be beneficial to allow your fire fighters to have access to their own supplies of epinephrine injectors, to be used when a patient has a past history of severe allergic reactions and does not have their medication available. This would involve some additional training for your staff and would necessitate carrying both adult and pediatric epinephrine injectors. There are several Fire Departments in Ontario that have recently started a similar program providing this care prior to the arrival of EMS personnel. Further, it is my medical opinion that having epinephrine auto injectors available for use by the public in City owned buildings is not advisable. This is by no means an accepted public health measure at this time. I am aware of only one similar program in Hamilton that has as yet not been started and it will be run only in a single location and is being studied as a research project if it proceeds. The drug epinephrine is not without significant side effects.

Niagara Falls firefighters are certified by me and are therefore authorized to use epinephrine when responding to calls for severe allergic reactions.

Feei free, as usual, to contact me if you any questions or concerns regarding these issues. Yours sincerely, Dr. Doug Munkley Niagaraft0 May 13, 2014 REPORT TO: Mayor James M. Diodati and Members of the Municipal Council City of Niagara Falls, Ontario SUBMITTED BY: Clerks Department SUBJECT: CD-2014-07 EpiPens RECOMMENDATION Tkat the Public Health Department of the Regional Municipality of Niagara be formally requested to rr'enitor the Stock Epinephrine Auto-injector Pilot Project, overseen by the City of Hamilton, through tkieir Public Health Services and, if the pilot project is successful, consider implementing such a proem in Niagara. That the city take the lead by having staff investigate the provision of Epinephrine Auto- injectors at all City facilities, and on all Fire Trucks, and consider a bulk purchase of the Epinephrine Auto-injectors EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Staff was directed to investigate the efforts of the City of Hamilton related to the introduction of epinephrine auto-injectors (EAI), also known as EpiPens. The City of Hamilton has introduced a pilot project, which could be a model for other jurisdictions to follow. If such an initiative was to be undertaken in Niagara, it would be more appropriately the jurisdiction of the Public Health Department. Increased public awareness should be encouraged through education. BACKGROUND At the Council meeting of November 12, 2013, during new business, Council directed that staff "investigate the Hamilton By-law that requires restaurants to have EpiPens." From the major manufacturer's website, an EpiPen is described as a disposable, pre-filled automatic injection device that administers epinephrine, a medication, in the event of a severe allergic reaction. Anaphylaxis is a serious allergic reaction that is rapid and can cause death if not responded to quickly. The use of an EpiPen, or epinephrine auto- injector, when properly administered, may relax muscles to make breathing easier and reverse a sudden drop in blood pressure. The research by Hamilton Public Health Services (HPHS) indicates that food allergies affect up to 2.5% of the adult population and 6 to 8% of children less than three years of age. The initiative in Hamilton came about at the urging of the Rotary Club of Ancaster after a Stoney Creek girl died after suffering anaphylactic shock after eating an ice cream cone at an area mall. May 1 2+ 2014 - 2 - vD-q/14 rt., u1 -07 ANALYSIS/RATIONALE When Council directed staff, the inference was that the City of Hamilton had passed a by- law requiring that all restaurants have an EpiPen on the premises. As the s��pporting reports and minutes from the City of Hamilton and Board of Health indicate, Hamilton City Council has taken a cautious and incremental approach and has not implemented a mandatory requirement for stock epinephrine auto-injectors (EAI) at Hamilton food establishments. After directing Public Health staff in April 2013 to come back with a report, in October 2013. Hamilton City Council directed that HPHS work with McMaster and Anaphylaxis Canada to develop an epinephrine auto-injectors pilot program that could be implemented at a Hamilton mall nr nationally food od outlet chain. On April 22nd, the Board of Health �.0 +v approved the recommendation of a one-year pilot project, at a cost to the City of Hamilton of $82.000, that will see security guards at Eastgate and Jackson Square malls trained to recognize and respond to a severe allergic reaction. In conjunction with the pilot project. Anaphylaxis Canada will be providing education to the general public and promoting personal accountability plans for those that have allergies and their own EAI. At the end of the pilot project, McMaster University will share their findings so City of Hamilton officials can make informed decisions on the initiative going forward. The HPHS reports do not contemplate making the provision of EAI's mandatory or impose punitive measures. through a by-law, for not having them. The efforts are focussed on education and the pilot project setting benchmarks and best practices, going forward. An analogy is the introduction of defibrillators in public spaces. Success of the defib program has been achieved through training and public education, not through enforcement or mandatory measures. introducing a by-law making it mandatory for restaurants to have EAi's without first instituting a training program would not be prudent. In the Hamilton project, it has been decided that due to the transient nature of restaurant staff, it is more advisable to train security staff than front line workers. Not contained in the reports, but based on viewing the Board of Health proceedings in April, overtures to the Provincial Restaurant Association were made- The position of the Association was that the provision of EAl's should be strictly voluntary. Any attempt to force the requirement of EAI's is likely to be challenged by the industry, especially without providing appropriate training. Nonetheless, restaurants or malls that do have trained personnel could certainly use that information as a selling point to their clientele. The Hamilton initiative is laudable and may be the model, if successful, for other jurisdictions to follow. Staff would recommend that the lead on such an initiative, locally, should be done through the Public Health Department at the Region. In addition, if the provision of EAI's were to be mandatory in restaurants, it would be more appropriate that monitoring and enforcement be done through the Pubic Health Department, who regularly inspect restaurants, as part of their NiagaralnfoDine program. As public education and training should precede any enforcement action, staff would also encourage Anaphylaxis Canada to engage in public information sessions through local organizations such as the Chamber of Commerce or Niagara Falls Tourism. May 13, 2014 - 3 - CD-2014-07 FINANCIAL/STAFFING/LEGAL IMPLICATIONS At this point, the staff report is an encapsulation of the efforts of the City of Hamilton. as opposed to an analysis of how the City of Niagara Fails could implement a similar initiative, with inherent financial, staffing and legal implications. The Hamilton reports outline the impact and stress the pilot project will have on the HPHS resources, indicating the project is a major undertaking_ In addition, as outlined, public health issues are in the sphere of the upper-tier municipality. CITY'S STRATEGIC COMMITMENT The fostering of a healthy and safe community is one of the Council's strategic priorities. As a result, the Region's Public Health Department should be encouraged to monitor Hamilton's pilot project to consider a similar initiative for Niagara. In addition. public education on EAI's should be fostered and encouraged.

That the Mayor and Clerk be authorized to execute the aforementioned documents on behalf of the City. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This Parks License is required for the continued use of the Convention Centre hydro corridor. The Parks License permits the City to enter the hydro corridor for maintenance purposes. BACKGROUND Council will recall that the Convention Centre was constructed on property fronting on Stanley Avenue that the City purchased for this purpose. The parking lot is situated to the west of the Convention Centre site. The City has leased the parking lot lands from the Region. There is a Hydro corridor between the Convention Centre site and the parking lot lands. This License will permit the City to continue uninterrupted use of the Hydro corridor lands for the next five years. ANALYSIS/RATIONALE The proposed Parks License will ensure the continued public use of the lands for recreational purposes. August 12, 2014 - G - L-2U14-13 FINANCIAL/LEGAL IMPLICATIONS No taxpayer funds will be used for this expenditure. The renewal cost is $5.00 per year for a five year term.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The following are the terms and conditions of the new License Agreement: • Non-exclusive License for use of the building located on the premises • Five year term ending on December 31, 2019 • Nominal annual consideration ($1.00) This Agreement is amended to provide clarity of the responsibilities of both parties. BACKGROUND The Willoughby Historical Museum was established in 1967 in a former one-room red brick schoolhouse (1916-1957) at the intersection of the Niagara Parkway and Weaver Road, approximately four kilometres south of the Village of Chippawa. The City has historically licensed this facility from the NPC for the License of the premises known as the Willoughby Historical Museum, which premises included the maintenance to the museum itself, which has historically been undertaken by the City, and the repairs and maintenance to the washroom facilities, parking lot and grounds, which have historically been undertaken by the NPC. This proposed License will now more accurately reflect the responsibilities of the parties, including the NPC's agreement to maintain and repair the roof at their sole cost and expense. August 12, 20 14 - G - L-2014-15 ANALYSIS/RATIONALE The proposed License will ensure the continued public use of the lands for recreational purposes. FINANCIAL/LEGAL IMPLICATIONS There is a historical maintenance cost associated with the ongoing operation of this facility. CITY'S STRATEGIC COMMITMENT The City's operation of the Willoughby Historical Museum is in keeping with its Strategic Plan for the provision of Recreation and Culture and is supported by the City's Public Art Pnlicy.

That the contract be awarded to the lowest bidder V. Gibbons Contracting, at the tendered price of $789,597.75. 2. That the Mayor and City Clerk be authorized to execute the necessary contract documents. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY In order to provide a safe travelling surface for the opening of the new Niagara Falls Transit Facility, as well as to address ongoing issues with deteriorated road conditions, City staff have completed the design, and tendered the work for, the proposed reconstruction of Brown Road from Montrose Road to approximately 60m east of Kalar Road and Heartland Forest Road from Brown Road to Chippawa Creek Road. Tenders for this contract were opened on Tuesday July 29th 2014. The lowest bid of $789,597.75 was received from V. Gibbons Contracting and is being recommended for acceptance. This contractor has completed various projects of this nature in the past and we are of the opinion that this contractor is capable of completing the prescribed works. BACKGROUND Brown Road from Montrose Road to approximately 60m east of Kalar Road and Heartland Forest Road from Brown Road to Chippawa Creek Road are currently in very poor condition. With the upcoming (Fall 2014) opening of the newly constructed Transit Facility on Heartland Forest Road, these sections of roadway will receive increased traffic flow including heavy bus traffic. In order to ensure the safety of the travelling public and that the road will not deteriorate further due to the heavy bus traffic, these sections of roadway will have to be properly reconstructed, including the installation of a full-depth granular base and asphalt paving as opposed to just localized repairs or a surface treatment. Staff have employed Hallex Engineering to perform a full-scale soil analysis, geotechnical investigation and road design. The roadway will be reconstructed in accordance with the design provided by Hallex, which included considerations for the increased traffic and August 12, 2014 _7_ MW-2014-29 heavy bus loads that will result from daily operations when then new Transit facility officially opens in the Fall of 2014. The Tender Opening Committee in the presence of the City Clerk, Dean lorfida, the Manager of Supply and Services, Dave Butyniec, and the Supervisor of Construction Services, Eric Lallouet opened tenders on Tuesday July 29, 2014 at 2:00 p.m. for the above noted contract. Tender documents were picked up by five (5) Contractors and three (3) bids were received. Listed below is a summary of the totalled tendered prices, excluding HST, received from the Contractors. The tenders were checked and no corrections were necessary. Firm City Tender Price Corrected Bid 1. V. Gibbons Contracting Stevensville $789,597.75 2. Norjohn Contracting Niagara Falls $814,276.00 3. Rankin Construction St. Catharines $814,356.00 ANALYSIS/RATIONALE The lowest tender was received from V. Gibbons Contracting in the amount of $789,597.75. 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.

Diodati and Members of the Municipal Council City of Niagara Falls, Ontario SUBMITTED BY: Municipal Works SUBJECT: MW-2014-34 Buckley Avenue Storm Sewer Tunnel Tender Award - Contract#2014-269-12 RECOMMENDATION 1. That the contract be awarded to the selected bidder Marathon Drilling Co Ltd. at the tendered price of $1,789,000.00. 2. That the Mayor and Clerk be authorized to execute the necessary contract documents. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY As part of ongoing Sewer separation activities in areas serviced by Combined Sewers within the City, staff have identified the section of Buckley Avenue between Park Street and Queen Street/Valley Way as a priority project. It will provide separated sewer outlets for the drainage areas to the south on Buckley Avenue and to the west towards Victoria Avenue. Due to construction issues encountered on a previous project at Park Street and Buckley Avenue, and due to the configuration of some of the existing buried infrastructure on the subject roadway, it was decided that the best implementation strategy was a trenchless (tunnelling) methodology as opposed to the more traditional open cut trench approach. Due to the specialized nature and inherent complexity of tunnelling projects, it was also decided that an evaluated tender approach be utilized for analysis and eventual award recommendation. This methodology would also consider such criteria as: understanding of the project, contractor qualifications, experience, past performance on similar projects, and innovation and value added approaches into the tender bid analysis. The recommended contractor scored highest on all the design team's reviews and was also the lowest bid received. BACKGROUND Infrastructure staff have identified the need to have a storm sewer on Buckley Avenue between Park Street and Queen StreetNalley Way. Provisions for a stub connection were included in the Park Street construction project (2006-165-06) in 2006. Given the difficulties that were encountered during construction, the storm sewer stub was never installed. A:.gust 12 201^ - 2 - ^":^:-2014-3, During the construction on Park Street a large void had been created under the road due to a leak in the watermain. The weight of the construction equipment caused the road to collapse into the void causing the intersection of Buckley Avenue and Park Street to collapse. The collapse damaged the Bell and hydro infrastructure in the area. It is for this reason that the stub was not installed at that time, as it was decided not to risk further damage to the Bell and Hydro infrastructure. The storm sewer on Buckley Avenue will be used as the storm outlet for the streets south of Queen Street. Completing this project will allow City staff to begin separating the sewers and reconstruct the side streets in this area of the City. City staff retained Associated EngineeringCp (AE)to complete the design for this project. The initial design was to install the storm sewer a using open cut trench methodology. As it ie design progressed, it became clear that using traditional open cut methodology was not feasible. The reasons for not using traditional open cut methodology are as follows: • given all the existing infrastructure in the road, the only clear alignment for the storm sewer is under the sidewalk on the east side of Buckley Avenue. If there was any type of cave in of the trench, the house foundations maybe affected. • There is a 1.8m diameter combined sewer located a few meters west of the proposed alignment of the new storm sewer. There is a chance that this sewer could collapse if left unsupported. It is not possible to remove this sewer as part of the construction, given the large upstream drainage area that has not been separated. This sewer will need to remain in service until all the tributary upstream area has been separated. • The geotechnical report indicated bedrock is present on the south end of the sewer (Valleyway and Queen Street). This would have to be broken and excavated from the trench requiring large equipment and significant vibration and noise. The intersection of Buckley Avenue, Valley Way and Queen Street would have to be closed for an extended period of time. Given the above mentioned concerns, the design was revised to look at a trenchless (tunnelling) solution. AE has a trenchless technology group out of their Edmonton office. This group was brought in to oversee the design and tendering of this project. At AE's recommendation, City staff retained the services of Coffey Geotechnics Inc to complete a Geotechnical Baseline Report (GBR) and a Geotechnical Information Report (GIR). These reports establish the underground baseline conditions that a contractor should expect to encounter during the tunnel excavation and help mitigate the risk associated with tunnelling. This information was used by the contractor to set their unit prices for the tunnel work and to help select the type of equipment they will use to complete the tunnel. The Design Team will also use this information for determining if additional payment is warranted during construction. Only conditions that are different than what has been identified in the GBR and GIR reports will be eligible for additional payment. Given the complexity of tunnelling, City Staff and the project team at AE, decided it was best to use an evaluated tender instead of the traditional lowest price received. This would allow the design team to score each contractor under various categories and select the August 12, 2014 - 3 - MW-2014-34 most qualified contractor for the project. This will reduce the chances of an inexperienced contractor being awarded the project, based on a low tender price. ANALYSIS/RATIONALE A public opening was not conducted for this contract, as the bids must be evaluated and scored before a winning contractor is announced. Bids were received by the City Clerk, Mr. Dean lorfida and the Project Manager, Chris Anders, on Tuesday June 22, 2014, at 4:00 PM. Tender documents were picked up by thirteen (13) contractors and three (3) bids were received. Listed below is a summary of the tender prices, excluding HST, received from the Contractors. Contractor City Tender Price Corrected Bid Marathon Drilling Co. Ltd Greely, ON $1,789,000.00 CRS Tunnelling Oakville, ON $4,377,000.00 Baiocco Construction St. Catharines, ON Disqualified The tender document stipulated that a two envelope submission was required. Failure to provide the required documentation in the first envelope will result in the second envelope not being opened. The bid from Baiocco Construction was disqualified as they did not include all of the required documents in the first envelope. Their bid was returned to them by the City Clerk, with the second envelope unopened. Each of the submissions were evaluated by each member of the design team and were scored based on the criteria outlined in the tender document. All of the design team members selected Marathon Drilling Co. Ltd. as the successful contractor. Prior to informing Marathon Drilling Co. Ltd, that they were the successful contractor, an interview was conducted to ensure they had a sound understanding of the project. This contractor has performed similar type projects throughout Ontario. We are of the opinion that this contractor is capable of successfully undertaking this project. The Engineer's estimate for this project was $2,000,000.00. FINANCIAL/STAFFING/LEGAL IMPLICATIONS The project was included in the approved Municipal Works Capital Budget for 2013 with a budgeted expenditure of $2,600,000.00. CITY'S STRATEGIC COMMITMENT The recommendations are consistent with Council's Strategic Priority to achieve the goal of infrastructure sustainability. neiy usi ice, 2014 -4 - IVIVV LU 14-J4 LIST OF ATTACHMENTS i.

Diodati and Members of the Municipal Council City of Niagara Falls, Ontario SUBMITTED BY: Municipal Works SUBJECT: MW-2014-38 Contract # 2014-351-14 - Tender Award Fernwood Park and Trail Development Project RECOMMENDATION 1. That the tender with the revised project scope from Touchstone Site Contractors Inc. (650 Allanburg Road, Thorold ON. 1_2V 1A8) for the Fernwood Park and Trail Development Project in the amount of$275,895.45 (excluding HST) be approved. 2. That the Mayor and City Clerk be authorized to execute the necessary contract documents. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This contract is necessary to complete development of a new neighbourhood park and a section of the new recreational trail in the Fernwood subdivision. Work will include a new playground area with accessible playground equipment, concrete curbing, asphalt pathways, seating areas and related landscaping. Furthermore work will also include drainage improvements within the Fernwood Woodlot adjacent to the rear yard of residents on Tapestry Court. All bids received were over the tender budget $315,000. To advance the project on budget, Staff reduced the project scope by deferring a portion of the trail development. Staff are recommending Contract #2014-351-14 Fernwood Park and Trail Development Project be awarded to the low bidder, Touchstone Site Contractors Inc. With the revisions to the project scope, the contract value is within overall budget forecasts. BACKGROUND Fernwood Park (9260 Hendershot Blvd) is a new neighbourhood park situated within the Fernwood Subdivision. Refer to attachment #1. The 0.1 hectare (0.25 acre) park was dedicated to the City of Niagara Falls in partial fulfilment of the statutory parkland dedication requirements. The purpose of Fernwood Park is to provide the residents of the Fernwood subdivision with the standard level of service for neighbourhood parkland. Fernwood Park will contain amenities that will include an accessible neighbourhood playground, accessible pathways, seating, picnic space, a free play area and related landscaping. Selection of the rAun uSt 771 LAAT -L - MW-2 01.4-33 playground equipment was conducted through RFP21-2014. The Fernwood Trail is situated adjacent to the ctnrmwater management facilities fnr the Fernwood Subdivision. Once completed the (900 metre long) Fernwood Trail will extend from Garner Road to the West limit of Hendershot Blvd and will also connect to Fernwood Park. The trail will be paved with asphalt and feature seating areas, signage and landscaping. In 2013, City staff were made aware of drainage issues along the south limit of the Fernwood Woodlot adjacent to the rear yard limits of residences on Tapestry Court. These drainage issues caused intermittent localized ponding along the interface between the Fernwood Woodlot and properties on Tapestry Court. City staff, with assistance of the Niagara Peninsula Conservation Authority, developed a .plan to resolve ll Ie drainage Issues through ditch improvements. ANALYSIS/RATIONALE A contract is necessary to facilitate the development of Fernwood Park and Trail. Work will include site grading, playground area construction, concrete curbing, asphalt paving, concrete pavement, site furniture installation, topsoil placement, turf seeding, signage installation, armourstone, and tree planting. In addition ditching and tile drainage work has been included in the contract to address drainage issues within the Fernwood Woodlot. A tender call was issued for the project on July 8, 2014 with the closing on July 22, 2014. 4 bidders responded to the call. Contractor City Tender Price Corrected Bid Touchstone Site Contractors Thorold $336,991.45 Stevensville Lawn Service Stevensville $355,875.00 $355,925.00 Peninsula Construction Fonthill $388,938.71 Garden Grove Landscaping Waterdown $406,052.34 Staff completed a thorough review of each bid and found the bid submitted by Touchstone Site Contractors Inc. for the amount of $336,991.45 (excluding HST) was the lowest bid and met all necessary requirements. Unfortunately all four bids received were above the tender budget of $315,000. Given the neighbourhood importance of advancing this project in a timely fashion, City staff and consultants met with the low bidder and developed a way to reduce the cost of the project. This was accomplished by reducing the project scope by deferring approximately 340 metres of trail. The resulting project cost from the scope reduction is $275,895.45+HST. The reduced project scope still includes approximately 500 metres of paved trail to be constructed. Refer to attachment # 2. The lowest bidder for the Fernwood Park and Trail Project did not change due to the proposed project scope changes. No price adjustments were requested by the bidder even though there were significant material unit reductions between the original project scope August 12, 2014 - 3 - MW-2014-38 and the revised project scope. The deferred section of trail may be implemented in the future with other trail works that include the eventual elimination of the existing construction access from Lundy's Lane. FINANCIAL/STAFFING/LEGAL IMPLICATIONS The expenditure in this tender for Fernwood Park and Trail was approved with the 2014 Capital Budget with a program budget of$365,000. 90% funding for this project is funded through development charges. At the present time there are no revisions to the budget expenditures or funding sources. The expenditure in this tender for Fernwood Woodlot/Tapestry Court drainage was approved with the 2014 Capital Budget in the Ditching Improvement Project with an overall program budget of $25,790. At the present time there are no revisions to the budget or funding sources. This tender represents one part of the overall project and further expenditures will be made. The tendered price is within the overall budget forecasts.

Many of the properties were originally designated prior to the 2005 update to the Ontario Heritage Act which included Regulation 9/06, Criteria for Designation. There have been changes in terminology and language in the Heritage Act and this update is reflective of these changes. These draft by-laws were reviewed by Planning & Building staff. ANALYSIS/RATIONALE The purpose of amending and updating the by-laws is to update the terminology and legal descriptions of each property. The by-laws also assist by guiding any future restoration by specifically outlining the heritage attributes that contribute to the heritage value and interest of the property. The update was also done in part to assist the Property Standards Officers when dealing with heritage properties insofar as heritage attributes are now better described. August 12, 2014 - 2 - PBD-2014-41 Each of the draft by-laws were reviewed by staff in the Planning & Building divisions. Accordingly, staff recommend that Council pass the by-laws.

Diodati and Members of the Municipal Council City of Niagara Falls, Ontario SUBMITTED BY: Planning, Building & Development SUBJECT: PBD-2014-44 DB-2014-002 Deeming By-law Application Lot 26, Plan 137 and Block 'A', Plan 59M-70 Applicant: Angela Pasquale Proposed Residential Development RECOMMENDATION That Council pass the by-law appearing on tonight's agenda to deem Lot 26, Plan 137 and Block 'A', Plan 59M-70, to no longer be within the registered plans of subdivision, to enable them to merge. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Angela Pasquale has requested that Council pass a Deeming By-law under the Planning Act for Lot 26, Plan 137 and Block 'A', Plan 59M-70 so that they will no longer be within their respective plans of subdivision. This will allow the lands to merge and become one parcel. Once the lands are merged the applicant intends to file consent applications to divide the land into two new lots for single detached dwellings. The lands are zoned Residential Single Family (R1C) in accordance with Zoning By-law No. 79-200, which permits single detached dwellings. The applicant also intends to file minor variance applications that will facilitate the intended dwellings. The necessary deeming by-law is included in tonight's agenda. BACKGROUND Proposal Angela Pasquale has submitted a request to deem Lot 26, Plan 137 and Block `A', Plan 59M-70, to no longer be within their respective registered plans of subdivision. This will allow the lands to merge. The subject lands are located on the northeast corner of Bonnie Street and Waters Avenue. Refer to Schedule 1 for the location of the lands. The lands are zoned Residential Single Family (R1 C), in accordance with Zoning By-law No. 79-200. This zoning permits the lands to be developed for single detached dwellings. The owner wishes to create two building lots for single detached dwellings. Deeming the subject lands to no longer be within the registered plans of subdivision will allow the lands to merge. Future consent applications will be filed to allow the creation of the new desired lots. Refer to Schedule 2 for details of the future lots. August 12, 2014 - 2 - PBD-2014-44 A deeming by-law removes the special status granted to a whole lot and a block within a registered plan of subdivision for the purpose of subdivision control under the Planning Act. The applicant's registration of the requested by-law would allow the legal merger of the subject lands. CITY'S STRATEGIC COMMITMENT The proposal supports Council's strategic priority of strengthening and promoting economic development in the City.

Diodati and Members of the Municipal Council City of Niagara Falls, Ontario SUBMITTED BY: Planning, Building & Development SUBJECT: PBD-2014-46 26CD-11-2014-01, Proposed Plan of Condominium (Standard) 3659 Stanley Avenue Applicant: 1671312 Ontario Ltd. c/o Chris Hawkswell Agent: Brent Larocque, The Larocque Group RECOMMENDATION 1. That the Plan of Condominium be draft approved subject to the conditions in Appendix 1. 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. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Chris Hawkswell has applied to divide an office/industrial building, currently under construction, into 8 units and to create a 9th unit of vacant land intended to be developed with self storage units by registering a Plan of Condominium on the lands. Planning staff recommends the application for the following reasons: • the Plan of Condominium will allow individual ownership of the units; • all applicable planning policies have been applied to the project and there are no outstanding matters that need to be addressed by further public input; and • City interests will be addressed through the fulfillment of the conditions contained in Appendix 1. August 12, 2014 -2 - PBD-2014-46 BACKGROUND Proposal The applicant proposes to register a Standard Plan of Condominium on the 1.55 hectare (3.8 acre) parcel of land known as 3659 Stanley Avenue. Refer to Schedule 1 to locate the parcel. Site plan approval was granted last year to guide the development of an 8 unit office/industrial building and a self storage complex on the lands. The building is currently under construction and the self storage complex is planned. The applicant proposes to register a Standard Condominium on the lands to permit individual ownership of the 8 office or industrial units and the self storage complex as a 9th unit. In addition 84 separate parking units are proposed to be created. The driveway and landscaped open space will be owned in common by the condominium. Schedule 2 illustrates the layout of the project. Circulation Comments • Regional Municipality of Niagara - No objections. The Region does not provide internal waste collection to industrial uses, therefore waste collection is limited to curbside pickup along Stanley Avenue. If private collection is provided instead, a warning clause should be put in to all Offers and Agreements of Purchase and Sale or Lease. A condition has been requested to this effect. • Fire Services, Enbridge, Canada Post - No objections, subject to meeting the conditions listed in Appendix 1. ANALYSIS/RATIONALE The zoning of the property was changed to a site specific Light Industrial (LI-671) zone in 2004. This zone permits the industrial/office complex that is under construction. Site plan approval was granted for the project in 2011. Building Permits have been issued and the project is proceeding in accordance with the approved plans. Paving and landscaping are still required to be completed. The City is holding a Letter of Credit (LC) to ensure compliance with the Site Plan Agreement. The LC will not be released until all the site works are completed to the City's satisfaction. The majority of the standard development issues, including land use, servicing and grading, transportation and landscaping have been addressed in previous Planning approvals (Zoning and Site Plan). Therefore, the conditions of approval are limited to the provision of a community mail box and Bell Canada services, provision of any necessary facilities and easements to Enbridge, a warning clause with respect to waste collection, and a final review to confirm zoning and site plan compliance prior to registration of the condominium. With the clearance of these conditions, the proposed condominium will meet all applicable City policies. August 12, 2014 - 3 - PBD-2014-46 Under Provincial regulations, public notice and the holding of a public meeting are not required prior to Council approving a Standard Plan of Condominium. Matters of public interest were addressed at the zoning approval stage. FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS The proposed condominium will generate revenue through property taxes. There are no other financial implications. CITY'S STRATEGIC COMMITMENT The proposed condominium provides for development as envisioned by the City's Official Plan and Zoning By-law No. 79-200, as amended.

Diodati and Members of the Municipal Council City of Niagara Falls, Ontario SUBMITTED BY: Planning, Building & Development SUBJECT: PBD-2014-47 Matters Arising from Municipal Heritage Committee Repeal of Portion of Designating By-law for 6137 Lundy's Lane RECOMMENDATION That Council pass the repealing By-law that is listed on tonight's agenda for the property located at 6137 Lundy's Lane and known as the Battle Ground Hotel Museum. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY In order to complete the land transfer to the Region of Niagara, that resulted from a road widening taken by the Region, itis necessary to repeal a portion of the Designating By-law that is on title to the Battle Ground Hotel Museum at 6137 Lundy's Lane. The by-law will reflect the legal description of the property minus the road widening. As the property is designated under the Ontario Heritage Act and the subject of an easement in favour of The Ontario Heritage Trust, both the Municipal Heritage Committee and the Trust have been consulted and neither have concerns that the removal of this portion of the property will affect the Reasons for Designation of the property. ANALYSIS/RATIONALE It is proposed that a new Schedule "A" reflective of the new legal description be inserted in the Designating By-law. The new legal description results from a road widening that was taken by the Regional Municipality of Niagara for road improvements. Accordingly, staff recommend that Council pass the by-law.

Diodati And Members of the Municipal Council City of Niagara Falls, Ontario SUBMITTED BY: Transportation Services Department SUBJECT: TS-2014-17 Niagara College Summer Bus Service Extension RECOMMENDATION 1. That Niagara Falls Transit services are provided fare free to Niagara College students residing within the City of Niagara Falls from May 1 , 2014 through August 31 , 2014 in return for $15,316.00 from the Niagara College Student Administrative Council. 2. That the Mayor and Clerk are authorized to execute the necessary agreements. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Niagara Falls Transit and the Niagara College Student Administrative Council initiated a Summer Service for the benefit of their students residing within our city in the Spring of 2009. The program has proven to be mutually beneficial to the parties and they have asked to extend their Agreement with the City to provide service for the Summer of 2013. In return for allowing the students to ride our buses' fare free, their Student Administrative Council will be providing Niagara Falls Transit a one time payment of $15,316.00. This initiative will further provide an opportunity to promote our services to younger customers within our community in the hope they will continue to patronize the service beyond their post secondary years. There will be no additional costs incurred by Transit staff as the students are riding on the conventional municipal service. BACKGROUND Niagara Falls Transit has been providing this fare free service to Niagara College students residing in Niagara Falls throughout the months of May through August inclusive since 2009. To indicate which students are eligible to receive the service, Niagara College Student Administrative Council issues a sticker to their student member that is applied to their I.D. Cards. Simply presenting this I.D. Card to our Bus Operators allows them to ride fare free. August 12, 2014 - 2 - T5-2014-17 The Niagara College Student Administrative Council purchases this service to allow their students who are registered for Summer courses to utilize Niagara Fails Transit to connect to services traveling to both of their campuses. FINANCIAL/STAFFING/LEGAL IMPLICATIONS This program will provide an additional source of defined revenue and will not create any additional expenses. There are no staffing or legal implications. CITY'S STRATEGIC COMMITMENT The Transit Strategic Plan and Ridership Growth Strategy support council's Strategic Priorities to; identify and evaluate alternative sources of revenue, and continue to monitor and improve the efficiency of the organization.

Diodati and Members of the Municipal Council City of Niagara Falls, Ontario SUBMITTED BY: Transportation Services Department SUBJECT: TS-2014-20 Brock University Students' Union Transit Agreement RECOMMENDATION: 1. That the City enter into a one year Agreement with the Brock University Student's Union. 2. That Niagara Falls Transit services be extended to the Brock University Campus from September 2014 through April 2015 at full cost recovery. 3. That the Mayor and City Clerk be authorized to execute the necessary agreement. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The most recent Agreement to provide transportation service between Niagara Falls and Brock University for the benefit of the students residing within Niagara Falls expired on April 30, 2014. Transit staff have been in discussion with the Brock University Students' Union Executive to review the route, schedules, and term of the Agreement to best meet the needs of their members. This new one year term will ensure Niagara Falls Transit services are provided at full cost recovery for the hours of service provided between the two municipalities. In addition, a Municipal Levy will be applied to capture revenue for the trips taken by students on Niagara Falls Transit within the city from September through April. BACKGROUND: The Niagara Falls Transit service to Brock University was implemented in September 1992 as an express bus operating on a fixed route between Niagara Falls and the Brock University campus in St. Catharines. The service is provided September through April to ensure the students residing within our city have an opportunity to travel to and from the Brock Campus to attend their daytime and evening classes, as well as their exams. For the 2014/2015 school year, the hourly rate will be $92.93 per hour, which provides Niagara Falls Transit with full cost recovery for the provision of service between the two August 12, 2014 - 2 - TS-2014-20 municipalities. In addition to the hours of service the Students' Union has purchased from Niagara Falls Transit, a Municipal Levy funding formula has been introduced to capture revenue from the students for the trips they are taking within our city on Niagara Falls Transit from September through April. This Agreement also has a Fuel Escalation Clause to protect the City should the price of diesel fuel increase dramatically. Further, any fares collected by non student customers choosing to utilize this service to travel to the Brock Campus in St. Catharines are retained by the City. FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS: Thic one year Agreement with the Brock University Students' Union will provide N!agara Falls Transit with revenues of approximately $195,300. These revenues will allow the service to operate between Niagara Falls and St. Catharines at full cost recovery. CITY'S STRATEGIC COMMITMENT: The provision of service between Niagara Falls and the Brock Campus supports the City's 2011 - 2014 Strategic Priorities which include: Infrastructure Sustain Ability, Convenient, Accessible, and Sustainable Transportation, Customer service Excellence, and a Healthy and Safe Community.

Diodati and Members of the Municipal Council City of Niagara Falls, Ontario SUBMITTED BY: Transportation Services Department SUBJECT: TS-2014-24 Prospect Street - Heavy Vehicle Restriction RECOMMENDATION That a "No Heavy Vehicle" restriction that includes buses with an "Up to $5,000 Fine" tab is established on Prospect Street between Drummond Road and Portage Road. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The recommended heavy vehicle prohibition on Prospect Street between Drummond Road and Portage Road will reduce the impact of heavy vehicles including bus traffic using Prospect Street as a shortcut route. BACKGROUND Observations were carried out to address concerns from an area resident that highway coach bus drivers are using Prospect Street as a shortcut to avoid Highway 420 when it becomes congested during the summer tourist season. Prospect Street is a local roadway that extends 525 metres between Drummond Road and Valley Way. The roadway is in good condition. Prospect Street is the closest alternative for eastbound traffic that has exited Highway 420 at Drummond Road to continue eastbound. ANALYSIS/RATIONALE Data collected over a week in June 2014 identified that there is bus traffic primarily eastbound on Prospect Street. A heavy vehicle prohibition is recommended on Prospect Street between Drummond Road and Portage Road to reduce the impact of heavy vehicles on the residential road. The restriction will prevent drivers from using Prospect Street as a shortcut. Bus drivers may use either Lundy's Lane or Valley Way as they are suitable parallel collector/arterial roads that are constructed to accommodate heavy vehicle traffic. The proposed restriction does not apply to school buses, emergency vehicles or delivery vehicles that have a destination on Prospect Street. August 12, 2014 -2- TS-204-24 FINANCIAL/STAFFING/LEGAL IMPLICATIONS The installation of the "No Heavy Vehicles" signs are to be carried out by Transportation Services staff. The labour costs are accounted for in the 2014 General Purposes Budget. Studies estimate that the cost to install the signs is approximately $1,400. CITY'S STRATEGIC COMMITMENT This initiative is supported by Council's Strategic Priorities, which include ensuring that environmental, health, and social benefits direct transportation planning and design decisions related to walking, cycling, and public transit.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The recommended heavy vehicle prohibition on Jepson Street between Victoria Avenue and Valley Way will reduce the impact of heavy vehicles using Jepson Street as a shortcut route. BACKGROUND Observations were carried out to address a concern from an area resident that transport truck drivers are using Jepson Street to/from the commercial plaza on the west side of Victoria Avenue south of Jepson Street. Jepson Street is a local roadway that extends from Valley Way to Victoria Avenue and then continues easterly to Palmer Avenue. The section of Jepson Street west of Victoria Avenue is in fair condition. Jepson Street will be surface treated this summer under the overlay program. Many of the east/west roads in the neighbourhood are restricted to heavy vehicle traffic between Stanley Avenue and Victoria Avenue, including but not limited to Morrison Street, Valley Way, McRae Street and Stamford Street. ANALYSIS/RATIONALE A heavy vehicle prohibition is recommended on Jepson Street between Victoria Avenue and Valley Way to reduce the impact of heavy vehicles on the residential road. The restriction will prevent drivers from using Jepson Street as a shortcut. Truck drivers may use either Falls Avenue (formerly Roberts Street) or Bridge Street as they are suitable parallel arterial roads that are constructed to accommodate heavy vehicle traffic. The proposed restriction does not apply to school buses, emergency vehicles or delivery vehicles that have a destination on Jepson Street.

TS-2014-26 NiagaraJglls August 12, 2014 REPORT TO: Mayor James M. Diodati and Members of the Municipal Council City of Niagara Falls, Ontario SUBMITTED BY: Transportation Services Department SUBJECT: TS-2014-26 Transit Agreement with the Town of Fort Erie RECOMMENDATION: 1) That the municipality enters into an agreement with the Corporation of the Town of Fort Erie to supply transit service at full cost recovery. 2) That the Mayor and City Clerk be authorized to execute the necessary agreement. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The Town of Fort Erie is interested in Niagara Falls Transit providing service between their community and Niagara Falls for the September 2014 through April 2015 period, which aligns with the school years' for Niagara College and Brock University. This one year agreement will be provided at an hourly rate, which ensures all costs associated with the provision of service are fully recovered. BACKGROUND: The Town of Fort Erie has requested Niagara Falls Transit supply inter-municipal bus service between Niagara Falls and Fort Erie. This service began six years ago in September 2008 and serves as an educational and employment link between the two communities. The service will commence on September 2, 2014 and continue through to the end of April 2015, which will address the needs of the post secondary school customers who account for more than 70% of the ridership. In addition to the student traffic, the service attracts riders who travel into Niagara Falls for employment opportunities. The service is provided from the Walmart store in Fort Erie to the bus platform at the Target Plaza in Niagara Falls and thus, provides connection options to other Niagara Falls Transit buses for these customers. FINANCIAL/STAFFING/LEGAL IMPLICATIONS: The Service Agreement for the September 2014 through April 2015 will be the same as the 199n1A - 2 - TS-2014.26 previous years'. The hourly rate will be$92.93 per hour, which recoups all costs associated with providing this inter municipal service. Based on the number of hours provided, the September 2014 through April 2015 service period will generate approximately $129,720 CITY'S STRATEGIC COMMITMENT: The provision of service between Niagara Falls and Fort Erie supports the City's 2011 - 2014 Strategic Priorities which include: Infrastructure Sustainability, Convenient, Accessible, and Sustainable Transportation, Customer service Excellence, and a Healthy and Safe Community.

Diodati And Members of the Municipal Council City of Niagara Falls, Ontario SUBMITTED BY: Transportation Services Department SUBJECT: TS-2014-27 McLeod Road - Parking & Traffic By-laws RECOMMENDATIONS 1 . That various parking, stopping and standing prohibitions be installed on McLeod Road between Kalar Road and Pin Oak Drive; and, 2. That the bicycle lanes be designated by municipal by-law. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY To ensure unimpeded traffic mobility on McLeod Road once the road improvement project is completed and keep the bike lanes free of parked vehicles, Staff is recommending that the study area consist of a combination of no parking, no stopping and no standing restrictions on both sides. These regulations are consistent with those established on Kalar Road several years ago. BACKGROUND The study section of McLeod Road is currently being reconstructed to four lanes. Designated cycling lanes will be constructed in both directions. An urban cross-section consisting of a curb and gutter, a boulevard and sidewalk will be provided on each side. These improvements are being carried out to accommodate future growth with continuing residential development in the subdivisions west of Kalar Road. ANALYSIS/RATIONALE Currently, standing restrictions are not present at existing transit stops, and parking/stopping restrictions are not present on McLeod Road in vicinity of Pin Oak Drive. To ensure unimpeded traffic mobility and keep the bike lanes free of parked vehicles, Staff is recommending that the study area consist of a "no parking" restriction with the exception of"no standing" restrictions at transit stops and "no stopping" restrictions within 60 metres of signalized intersections. August 12, 2014 -2- 15-2014-27 Appropriate signing will be installed when the road construction project is close to being concluded. The reconstruction project is expected to be completed by the end of summer. FINANCIAL /STAFFING/LEGALFINANCIAL/STAFFING/LEGAL IMPLICATIONS The installation of the signs is carried out by Transportation Services staff. The labour and material cost is accounted for in the 2014 General Purposes Budget. The estimated cost to install the signs is approximately $2,600.

Diodati and Members of the Municipal Council City of Niagara Falls, Ontario SUBMITTED BY: Transportation Services Department SUBJECT: TS-2014-28 Barker Street between Carlton Avenue & Corwin Avenue Parking Review RECOMMENDATION That a parking prohibition is established on the north side of Barker Street from Corwin Avenue to a point 75 metres east of Corwin Avenue. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The recommended parking restriction is supported by the two abutting residents to mitigate concerns with parked vehicles obstructing sight lines and damaging the grass boulevard. BACKGROUND A parking review had been carried out on Barker Street between Corwin Avenue and Carlton Avenue. The request was initiated by a resident who expressed concerns with parked vehicles restricting sight lines and experiencing difficulty when exiting their driveways, in addition to vehicles damaging the grass boulevards. Barker Street extends in an east/west direction. The section of Barker Street between Corwin Avenue and Carlton Avenue is approximately 7.0 metres in width and consists of a grass boulevard and a concrete sidewalk on each side. The area is residential. At the present time, parking is restricted on the south side of Barker Street between Corwin Avenue and Carlton Avenue. ANALYSIS/RATIONALE Parking questionnaires were delivered to each household on this section of Barker Street requesting the homeowner's input as to the preferred parking regulations. Approximately half of the petitioned residents provided a response, though an overall consensus was not obtained. Although the response rate for the entire street was low, responses obtained from the two homeowners on the north side of Barker Street immediately to the east of Corwin Avenue revealed a strong desire for a parking restriction. Thus, to ensure unobstructed visibility for these homeowners, Staff is recommending that a parking prohibition is established on August 12, 2014 -2- TS-2014-28 the north side of Barker Street from Corwin Avenue to a point 75 metres east of Corwin Avenue encompassing two properties. Approximately eight (8) on-street parking spaces will remain on the north side of this road segment between the end of the proposed parking restriction and Carlton Avenue. The two property owners where the restriction will be implemented are in favour of the parking prohibition. FINANCIAL/STAFFING/LEGAL IMPLICATIONS The installation of the signs is carried out by Transportation Services staff. The labour and material cost is accounted for in the 2014 General Purposes Budget. The estimated cost to install the signs is approximately $200. CITY'S STRATEGIC COMMITMENT This initiative is supported by Council's Strategic Priorities, which include ensuring that environmental, health, and social benefits direct transportation planning and design decisions related to walking, cycling, and public transit.

Diodati and Members of the Municipal Council City of Niagara Falls, Ontario SUBMITTED BY: Transportation Services Department SUBJECT: TS-2014-30 Swayze Drive - Traffic Operations RECOMMENDATION 1 . That this report be received and filed. 2. Staff are to conduct a public meeting (PIC) with area residents in September 2014. 3. Staff recommendations for traffic calming will be outlined in a future report to Council. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Staff is in the process of developing alternate traffic calming plans for Swayze Drive in response to Council's directive and residential concerns. Upon completion the options will be shared with the public via an open house meeting anticipated to be held in September following summer vacation season. Based on the comments received at the public meeting and the technical assessment, staff will recommend the preferred plan to Council. Should there be financial implication related to construction/purchasing costs will be included in the 2015 budget deliberations. BACKGROUND Correspondence was received in August 2013 regarding vehicle speed and a request to install traffic calming measures on Swayze Drive. To address this concern staff reviewed files and carried out studies to determine whether traffic calming measures were warranted based on traffic conditions in the field. The results of the study indicated that a collision problem is not present, however, the operating speed was noted to be 65km/h. Given that the operating speed exceeds 10km/h over the 50 km/h speed limit the area qualified for traffic calming measures under the "City's Speed Control Policy." Thus, to assess residential interest in permanent traffic calming measures, questionnaires were delivered to all residents on Swayze Drive in November 2013. Of the 141 questionnaires delivered 37 responses were returned representing a 26% response rate and an 18% support for speed control devices. Under the Speed Control Policy a minimum of 51% of residents must be in support of installing speed control devices. August 12, 2014 -2- TS-2014-25 As a result of the low response rate correspondence was delivered to residents in January 2014 indicating that the Niagara Regional Police would be requested to carry out enforcement on Swayze Drive, however traffic calming devices were not being pursued due to their not being a consensus amongst the residents. In May 2014, staff received additional enquiries from the same requisitioner requesting staff to reconsider the results of the questionnaire and eliminate the 100+ condos/townhouses from the survey and consider only the 32+/- households. Furthermore, it was identified that there has virtually been no police enforcement. Staff once again reviewed the questionnaire to assess whether there was a consensus if the condos/townhouses were eliminated from the survey. Support for speed control devices was still not acquired based on the responses received only from the single family homes. Council at their meeting July 8 2014, directed staff to prepare a report recommending alternate traffic calming measures other than speed humps as they are not desired by residents. Alternate suggestions were the use of radar boards, stop signs, pavement markings and signs. Furthermore, staff was requested to consider pavement markings and signs for children crossing Swayze Drive. Staff are in the process of assessing alternate traffic calming measures on Swayze Drive. Included in the assessment will be the use of chicanes, rumble strips, road narrowing, traffic circles, radar speed boards, warning signage and pavement markings. Upon completing several options a neighbourhood meeting will be held with the residents illustrating the alternatives. Based on residential input and technical assessment staff will then recommend a preferred traffic calming plan with a follow-up report to Council thereafter, anticipated in November. ANALYSIS/RATIONALE To curtail the speed of traffic on Swayze Drive traffic calming devices will be evaluated and recommended for installation. The process will include meeting with the public and the preparation of a follow-up report to Council. FINANCIAL/STAFFING/LEGAL IMPLICATIONS There is no financial implication at this time. Once a preferred traffic calming plan is recommended the financial implications will be identified.

Description of Property — Old Stamford Township Hall, 5810 Ferry Street The Old Stamford Township Hall is a two-storey civic building located at the south west corner of Ferry Street and Sylvia Place. The building's eclectic Italianate appearance changed little over the years. Statement of Cultural Heritage Value or Interest In 1873, the Stamford Township Council ruled in favour of the creation and financing of a township hall. Enlisting noted architect and contractor John Latshaw, the purchase of a 100 x 156 ft. lot was made for the building's construction. The Township Hall was erected the following year in December 1874. Due to its size, the Council rented out space in the building to the local community, reserving the ground floor for Township use. The basement was let to the Drummondville Fire Department which was housed there until 1913. In 1876, the Drummondville Concert Band began using the hall's stage and auditorium for practice sessions. This began a long tradition in local entertainment,i ent, as the stage and auditorium became the setting for concer ts, socials, plays, religious meetings, and even school classes. In 1881, the neighbouring Town of Clifton changed its name to the Town of Niagara Falls. The following year, the Village of Drummondville became the Village of Niagara Falls. During that time, the Township Council signed an agreement with the Village of Niagara Falls for joint use of its premises. However, in 1904 the Town and Village of Niagara Falls amalgamated to become the City of Niagara Falls, and opted to use the old Clifton Town Hall located on Queen Street at Erie Avenue for its political affairs. After unsuccessfully trying to sell the building, the Stamford Township Council retained ownership until 1963 when it too amalgamated with the City of Niagara Falls. In 1971 , the Lundy's Lane Historical Society was given the Township Hall for use as a museum of City and Township history. A large scale restoration project was conducted in 2010 which included the addition of a two storey structure added to the building's west elevation. Several aspects of the original building were restored, including its roof, windows, and masonry. The Old Stamford Township Hall is two storeys, with a symmetrical, three bay façade. Its exterior is limestone laid with ribbon pointing. Designed with a high basement, the foundation of the building features a base string course made of larger ashlar masonry. The hip roof is high-pitched and features gable ends on the north (front) and south (rear) facades. It is covered by cedar shingles, believed to be an alteration from the building's original terne-plate roof. The roof cornice and overhanging eaves are supported by decorative brackets and are accentuated with wooden dentils. A gingerbread feature is set into each gable. Four red brick chimneys project from the east and west sides of the hipped roof. The south east chimney was rebuilt as part of the exterior restoration and renovation project in 2010. The roof vents, similar to those originally built on the structure, were replaced during 2010 renovations. Evidence of an internal gutter system was found during the restoration. It has since been replaced with an external metal gutter attached to the eaves. _ On the north (front) facade, the central entrance is flanked by two windows. The door features a divided transom, and a semi-circular window originally containing the municipal coat of arms. The front entrance has a segmental arch composed of stone voussoirs and keystone with a date stone just above. All the windows on the north (front), east and south (rear) façades were removed, restored ed and re- installed during the 2010 restoration. The first floor windows are double-hung, 4 over 4 wood sash in segmental arched openings. The windows on the second floor are round headed 2 over 2, and shorter in proportion. A variation of a Florentine window is located above the entrance door and is repeated in the gable above. The east facade consists of six windows on the first and second floor. These windows have segmental arch openings with double-hung, 4 over 4 sash and a limestone surround. The basement level features a set of large wood doors under a segmental stone arch. These doors originally provided access for the Drummondville Fire Department. The west facade is connected to a two storey addition to the structure through a glazed walkway. The addition does not attempt to imitate the style of the original building, but instead contrasts with the existing structure through more modern construction. The original west facade still exists between the two structures, although it has been altered to accommodate the new addition to the site. It features preserved ribbon pointed masonry and restored windows original to the building The stone retaining wall on the north and east property lines was originally introduced in the 1930's. During the 2010/2011 restoration/renovation it was demolished and replaced with a concrete wall utilizing the original stone work as a veneer. The wall still incorporates building stones and plaques from various demolished buildings in the Niagara area. On the north east corner of the property is the Queen Victoria Memorial Fountain. Originally located at the northwest corner of Main and Ferro Street in 1901 it proved to be too much of a traffic hazard, so was moved to the northwest corner of the site in 1923 and during the restoration project in 2010/2011 was moved to its present location at the north east corner of the property. This move was necessary as it was located within the footprint of the new addition. The contextual value of the former Stamford Township Hall lies in its affiliation with the original settlement of Niagara Falls and County of Lincoln. As a centre of political and social activity in the community, the building's multiple uses have remained an intrinsic part of the area. The building's uses assist in understanding the history and development of the Township of Stamford and its relationship to the City of Niagara Falls.

Description of Property — Battleground Hotel, 6137 Lundy's Lane The Battleground Hotel is a one and a half-storey building of the early i 9t" century and novo functions as a cultural heritage museum at the centre of the lands involved in the 1814 Battle of Lundy's Lane. With its front temple facade and clear Classical revival elements the building was extensively restored in 2001 to its c. 1850 appearance. Statement of Cultural Heritage Value or Interest The land on which the former hotel was built had originally belonged to Thomas Millard Sr., one of the first ten settlers in the Stamford Township. In 1836, Adam Fralick purchased approximately 20,000 sq. ft. (1,858 sq. m.) of this land for the purpose of constructing a tavern. Offering lodging, food and drink to travelers, the business quickly benefited from its location on the Historic Lundy's Lane Battlefield, and Fralick's also owned the adjacent Battlefield observation tower. What began as a simple storey anrd a half rlwellinn was further exnanrieri to accommodate a growing numbers of tourists. The Hotel continued to be passed through the Fraiick family until it was sold to James A. Lowell in 1898. Eventually, the lot was acquired by Ruth Evelyn Redmond, who donated the land and building to the City in 1996. As a testament to the City's earliest forms of tourism, the Battleground Hotel remains a noteworthy site in one of the most historically significant areas of Niagara Falls. Consistent with the Classical revival style, the building is symmetrical in appearance and features a seven bay facade. Originally consisting of a "T" shaped structure, the "T" shaped void was later filled in by two single storey structures with lean-to roofs, behind the east and west wings. The primary gable contains a recessed centre porch, and forms a classical temple facade. This umbrage is supported by two Doric order columns, and contains three points of entry, most likely reflecting the building's use as an inn. The centre door features six raised panels and two incised panel pilasters with simple capitals supporting a plain stepped entablature. Along the front (south) facade are six 12 over 12 restored windows, as well as three 9-light windows along the south facing gable end. The fenestration for the east, west and north elevations consist primarily of 12 over 8 and 8 over 8 sash. The trim of the windows are plain and flat, and feature louvered shutters fixed with a centre cross-rail. Constructed on a rubble stone foundation, the structure is finished with clapboard siding, and features frieze, sill and beaded corner boards in the same colour and material. Eave returns, another element of the Classical revival style, are also evident. Galvanized copper roofing is used on the east side of the Tavern's lean- to to avoid weather complications associated with the shallow pitch, whereas cedar shingles comprise the primary and south facing gable ends. A remnant of the Cornice gutter was found insitu in the attic area formed by the western lean- to-roof. Inside, the east parlour retains its fireplace and mantel with pilasters, baseboards and trim, and panels beneath the windows. A simple, yet early, banister is intact on the second floor, as well as the sponge painted walls on the first floor. Evidence of split lath and plaster, an early construction technique, was found in some locations. The Battleground Hotel is one of many historical sites designated for its heritage value in the area due to its association with the 1814 Battle of Lundy's Lane. Although the building had been built after the Battle had occurred, it's creation and success were directly impacted by the Battle's legacy. Furthermore, both the building and its original owner, Adam Fralick, had heavily assisted in the development of early tourism in the Niagara Region. With Fralick's construction of a third observation tower in the area and the Hotel's commercial success, the structure is instrumental to understanding the history and evolution of tourism in the City of Niagara Falls. Description of Heritage Attributes Key exterior features that embody the heritage value and are important to the preservation of 6137 Lundy's Lane includes the following heritage attributes: • primary gable with eave returns typical of the Classical revival style • central front door with simple square profiles featuring 6 raised panels, two pilasters with heavy cornice, and a plain stepped entablature • temple façade form, characteristic of Classical Revival style, supported by two Doric order columns (restored) • symmetrical façade with a seven-bay arrangement providing a balanced appearance • 12 over 12, 12 over 8, and 8 over 8 sash window arrangement and fixed louvered shutters • refurbished clapboard siding • rubble stone foundation • cornice gutters restored on second floor roof • cedar shingles used on the primary gable and south facing gable end • retained interior features in the east parlour, including a fireplace with mantle, baseboards and trim and panels beneath the windows • Original banister and sponge painted walls. • association with Adam Fralick, owner of the house and key player in the development of early tourism in the Niagara region • proximity to other properties designated for their heritage value in relation to the Battle CITY OF NIAGARA FALLS By-law No. 2014- A by-law to amend By-law No. 2006-142, being a by-law to designate Cummington Square to be of cultural heritage value and significance.

Description of the property — Cummington Square Cummington Square is a public park which has been used continuously as a place of commemorative and social activities by the residents of Chippawa, and surrounding area, from the time it was set aside in the original village plan by Chippawa's founding father, Thomas Cummings and his family. Statement of Cultural Heritage Value Cummington Square is part of the original Crown patent of 200 acres granted in 1784 to Thomas Cummings. Thomas Cummings was a founding father of Chippawa and a leading citizen. Thomas Cummings and his son, James, were prominent merchants contributing to the early economic development of Chippawa. Cummings and his descendants dedicated the lands to the municipality as a village square and site for a Town Hall. A Town Hall was never built on the site. The Square is flanked on ail four sides by streets. Centrally iocated in the Chippawa business district, it serves as the hub of activity surrounded on three sides by commercial buildings. Many of these same 19th and early 20th century buildings still face the Square. Cummington Square is a public park which has continuously served as the centre for community activities. Citizens have gathered here, year after year, to enjoy music played in the bandstand, attend a memorial event or to participate in one of the many public functions. The Square has been used to honour those who fought in the World War I, World War II and the Korean War. The Square is an urban park providing a passive open space dedicated for the use of all citizens. The Square holds significant cultural value because of its association with an early settler and business operator, its connection to early commercial life, its importance as a public place for civic activities and its presence as a park used to recognize the contributions of the community's residents. The shape of Cummington Square is that of a rectangle having had a portion of the Square taken in 1958 to create parking spaces along the east side. The Square is a level plot of ground covered with grass and crossed by concrete pathways. The light poles and heads are modern; photographs of the original fixtures are available. The bandstand occupies the location and footprint of the first bandstand erected in the 1920's. The current structure is much altered from the original appearance, such that it is difficult to identify any significant architectural features. It is the location, shape, size, general form and long history as a place for music which are of importance. The cenotaph/war memorial including the fence and flag pole, are important elements physically and socially. These elements were altered during an upgrading of the square in the late 1990's. They are maintained by the City in consultation with the Royal Canadian Legion - Chippawa Branch 396, as is a commemorative plaque located on the base of the bandstand. A Parks Canada heritage plaque is located in the Square which outlines the history of the Chippawa. The plantings, furniture and fixtures are part of a masterplan prepared by the Parks, Recreation and Culture Division. Maintenance, repair and general management customary to the upkeep of the grounds, bandstand, structures and its systems shall continue as a matter of course. Key features that embody the heritage value and are important to the preservation of Cummington Square include the following heritage attributes: • The location and layout of the square being flanked on all four sides by streets • Continuous use as public park • Name of Cummings family that donated the land for the civic square • The band stand although not original allows the square to continue to be used for public gatherings whether it is for entertainment or memorial occasions. • Cenotaph and memorial plaques CITY OF NIAGARA FALLS By-law No. 2014- A by-law to amend By-law No. 83-280, being a by-law to designate 8196 Cummington Square West, known as the Chippawa Town Hall, to be of cultural heritage value and significance.

Description of Property — Chippawa Town Hall, 8196 Cummington Square West The Chippawa Town Hall is located at the intersection of Main Street and Cummington Square in the former village of Chippawa. Its solid, rectangular form exhibits Classical revival style elements, and remains as one of the only original façades of the designated Cummington Square. Statement of Cultural Heritage Value or Interest The settlement of Chippawa had originally functioned as the southern annex of the Niagara peninsula, and was the origin of boat navigation routes above the falls and rapidg With the opening of the Welland Canal 1829, Chippawa had "pening the Welland u.��.. vui ia� in i iau become a thriving town, with a wide variety of business establishments that framed the Cummington Square. Initially, the land for the Chippawa Town Hall had been owned by James Cummings. It was purchased by Fraser and Stephenson in 1841 for the operation of a general store. The structure was built a year later, and after the dissolution of the Fraser-Stephenson partnership, was sold to the Chippawa Council sometime between 1851 and 1865. The council, intending to use the structure as a town hall, had their offices moved into the upper floor of the building. During this time, the lower floor was rented out to tenants who continued to use it for grocery and dry goods trade. Over the years, part of the space upstairs was rented out for dances, church benefit shows, religious plays, and local civic association meetings. The remaining area was used to conduct political business for the town, establishing the building as a civic landmark. After the amalgamation of the Village of Chippawa with the City of Niagara Falls in 1970, the building became a community centre and continues to offer a variety of craft classes and goods to nearby residents. With a symmetrical three bay façade, and elegant ashlar limestone finish, the Chippawa Town Hall is an excellent example of the commercial vernacular of the Classical revival style. The two storey building is rectangular in form and features a shingled mansard roof. Though the northeast (front) façade is composed of ashlar limestone blocks, the foundation and side façades of the building are composed of course rubble, a prevalent building material of the area at that time. The lower storey of the northeast (front) façade is evenly divided by four plain pilasters with Doric capitals. The central entrance is recessed and contains a 12- light, wooden door with a transom. The entrance is flanked by two large plate glass windows that have pilasters on either side. An unornamented frieze separates the first storey from the second storey and is capped by a simple cornice. The transition from the limestone material of the front façade to the rough stone foundation seen on the south side is achieved through massive quoins at corners of the building. The front facade's balanced appearance is achieved by three windows with plain sills located above the frieze. These windows are all 2 over 2. Five more windows of the same design can be found on the southeast façade, but have much more decorative surrounds. These windows have large limestone surrounds, sills and lintels. A central clock tower is clearly visible above the other buildings in the area, and is shaped not unlike a dormer. The tower has a row of wooden eaves brackets, and is topped by a mansard roof and a simple, grey weathervane. Records show that the current mansard roof was a later addition to the structure, built sometime in the late 19th century. This would explain the contrast between the Classical revival elements of the structure and the Mansard roof of the Second Empire style. Photos from the early 20th century show a row of wooden eave brackets, similar to those below the current clock tower, placed along the soffits of the roof. Also shown in the early photos are sets of two, rounded dormers with attached finials, located on the northeast, northwest and southeast sides of the roof. As one of the only remaining original facades left fronting on the Cummington Square, the Chippawa Town Hall is a visual reminder of the history and character in what is still an active meeting ground for residents. Contributing to the community's social, political, and economic development, the building's characteristic Classical architecture and engaged social history establishes Chippawa Town Hall as a local landmark.

Description of Property — Copper Beech Tree, 6110 Lundy's Lane The Copper Beech Tree is located within the Drummond Hill Cemetery and is marked with a granite marker beside the tree that tells the story that it was planted in 1914 to mark the 100th anniversary of the Battle of Lundy's Lane. Statement of Cultural Heritage Value The City of Niagara Falls is indeed fortunate to have a tree such as the Copper Beech Tree, in our community. It has strong historical significance and is known to be planted in 1914 to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the Battle of Lundy's Lane which took place on July 25, 1814. Drummond Hill was the focal point during the battle which began at twilight on July 25, 1814. It was described as being the most fiercely fought and the bloodiest battle of the War of 1812. The action centred on the heights of Lundy's Lane; now known as Drummond Hill, where the British artillery was set up. The fighting ceased around midnight but not before 900 soldiers had perished and 60 deceased horses fell upon the battleground. Hundreds of the dead were burned in a funeral pyre nn the north side of the hill where they collapsed in battle. The location of the Copper Beech is a contributing factor for why this tree has become a cultural icon. The Lundy's Lane Battlefield Master Plan says of the copper beech tree, "... it dominates the hilltop and provides a sense of repose and grandeur ...". It is the most purposeful of the landscape features and provides a focus to the site. The Cooper Beech Tree at Drummond Hill Cemetery has become a local and regional cultural iC011 due to its historical associaiiori with the War of 1812 and in particular, the Battle of Lundy's Lane. Its colour symbolizes the blood that was shed while its dominant size and shape demonstrates the overall importance of the battle. The designation of the Copper Beech Tree not only raises public awareness of the importance of trees but also the importance of the history and heritage of Niagara Falls and to the events as well as the individuals who participated in the war of 1812. Key elements that reflect the heritage value of the copper beech tree include: • The strong cultural associations the city has for the tree including the memorializing of the War of 1812, more particularly, the Battle of Lundy's Lane in 1814. • The orientation to Drummond Hill, enhancing the tree's visibility and marking the location of a significant battle. • Bark with elephant hide appearance • Tree's rounded form with branches close to the ground • Deciduous aspect of the tree resulting in leaves unfurling in the spring as soft green, gradually changing to a rich russet colour in the summer and ultimately to a tawny bronze colour in the fall. • Its species, (Fagus sylvatica) which is not commonly found in the Niagara Peninsula or elsewhere in Southern Ontario. • Longevity of the tree at this particular location.

Description of Property — Stamford Green, 6212 Portage Road The Green is located between Portage Road on the west and St. Paul Avenue on the east and Stamford Green Drive on the north. The 3.5 acre wedge shaped piece of land is said to be one of the only village greens in Canada. Statement of Cultural Heritage Value The Stamford Green is held by the Stamford Green Board of Trustees for the citizens of Niagara Falls as a public park. The lands were once part of the grounds of the residence of Captain Robert Dee and were transferred to the Board of Trustees by his son, Dr. John Dee. In 1908, Dr. Dee sold the lands for the sum of $1,000 provided they remained as a public park for all time to come. Furthermore, Dr. Dee stipulated that "No buildings are to be erected and no trees are to be planted theleon" to which it was further added that a "...fence is never to be erected". The deed provides that the southerly two-thirds of the site can be levelled and that the remainder is to be kept in its natural state. The Trustees are authorized to carry out these conditions and maintain the covenants imposed by Dr. Dee. The Board of Trustees are empowered to appoint new members to the Board in the event of death or resignation of any of the Trustees. The northerly portion of the property is a level grassed plot of land. A historic stone and bronze marker erected in 1929 by the Historic Sites and Monuments Board of Canada is located at the northeast corner to recognize the significance of the Portage Road from Niagara Falls to Queenston. There are no trees on this portion of the site. The s.-�:"+`ler v third ofe-ti e s e is elineated �y a war mem r ial er ectee_ ill 1 d h # � h ^I Q4� a,„, now enhanced with plantings including pyramidal oak trees and evergreen and deciduous shrubs. South of this is a single maple tree with a small stone marker with bronze plaque and evergreen shrubs. At the gore end of the Green is a large Colorado spruce tree, ground plantings and a sign identifying the Green. These latter plantings and sign were added by the City in the late 1990's when it took over the maintenance of the grounds. The Green has been the site of a number of important events over the years, including: holiday sports, country fairs, village festivals and militia musters. It was also the site of a commemorative arch erected in 1860 for the passing entourage of the Prince of Wales, later King Edward VII. The Stamford Green is significant because of its unique status in Canada, its association with an important person during the settlement of Stamford Township, its historic role in community events and reverence with which it is held by the residents of the City. For these reasons, it is worthy of recognition as a place of historic importance which should be protected under the Ontario Heritage Act. Key Heritage attributes that reflect the historical value and are important to the preservation of the Stamford Green are as follows: • Its rarity, being an open greenspace that has not been significantly changed or planted on since the early 20th century. • Association with prominent early settlers in Stamford Township, Capt. Robert Dee, and his son Dr. John Dee. • Historic role in community events and militia musters; • Site of visit in 1860 by Prince of Wales, later King Edward VII • Large open landscape in contrast to surrounding development on Portage Rd. • Proximity to Portage Road, a major transportation link between Niagara Falls and Queenston; • Preservation as an open greenspace CITY OF NIAGARA FALLS By-law No. 2014- A by-law to amend By-law No. 2000-79, being a by-law to designate a property known as the Stamford Green, located at 6212 Portage Road, to be of cultural heritage value and significance.

The deed provides that the southerly two-thirds of the site can be levelled and that the remainder is to be kept in its natural state. The Trustees are authorized to carry out these conditions and maintain the covenants imposed by Dr. Dee. The Board of Trustees are empowered to appoint new members to the Board in the event of death or resignation of any of the Trustees. The northerly portion of the property is a level grassed plot of land. A historic stone and bronze marker erected in 1929 by the Historic Sites and Monuments Board of Canada is located at the northeast corner to recognize the significance of the Portage Road from Niagara Falls to Queenston. There are no trees on this portion of the site. The southerly third of the site is delineated by a war memorial erected in 1949 and now enhanced with plantings including pyramidal oak trees and evergreen and deciduous shrubs. South of this is a single maple tree with a small stone marker with bronze plaque and evergreen shrubs. At the gore end of the Green is a large Colorado spruce tree, ground plantings and a sign identifying the Green. These latter plantings and sign were added by the City in the late 1990's when it took over the maintenance of the grounds. The Green has been the site of a number of important events over the years, including: holiday sports, country fairs, village festivals and militia musters. It was also the site of a commemorative arch erected in 1860 for the passing entourage of the Prince of Wales, later King Edward VII. The Stamford Green is significant because of its unique status in Canada, its association with an important person during the settlement of Stamford Township, its historic role in community events and reverence with which it is held by the residents of the City. For these reasons, it is worthy of recognition as a place of historic importance which should be protected under the Ontario Heritage Act. Key Heritage attributes that reflect the historical value and are important to the preservation of the Stamford Green are as follows: • its rarity, being an open greenspace that has not been significantly changed or planted on since the early 20th century. • Association with prominent early settlers in Stamford Township, Capt. Robert Dee, and his son Dr. John Dee. • Historic role in community events and militia musters; • Site of visit in 1860 by Prince of Wales, later King Edward VII • Large open landscape in contrast to surrounding development on Portage Rd. • Proximity to Portage Road, a major transportation link between Niagara Falls and (li iaanctnn • Preservation as an open greenspace CITY OF NIAGARA FALLS By-law No. 2014- A by-law to amend By-law No. 2001-176, being a by-law to designate the Stamford White Oak Tree, located on the east side of Portage Road at Carman Street, to be of cultural heritage value and significance.

SCHEDULE "B" to BY-LAW NO. Description of the property — Stamford White Oak Tree The Stamford White Oak tree is located on the east side of Portage Rd at Carman Street and opposite Stamford Green. The tree is thought to be over 300 years old and given its proximity to Portage Road means this tree has witnessed many travelers while serving as a guide post. Statement of Cultural Heritage Value The location of the White Oak is a contributing factor to why it has become a cultural icon. Portage Road was considered to be a vital link in the transportation route between Lake Ontario and Lake Erie. It is well documented that Portage Road was used to move troops and supplies from lake to lake during the War of 1812. The White Oak is thought to be the only tree remaining from the original forest growth that covered the Stamford Township. Trees were obstacles to the pioneer. He had to cut them down and remove the logs before he could plant crops. The White Oak's proximity to Portage Road is probably what saved it. In 1983, the tree was deemed to be unhealthy and a safety risk due to branches that were falling off and was scheduled to be removed. The public rallied around the tree and saved it. The City of Niagara Falls and the Niagara Falls Heritage Foundation shared the $7,500 cost of medicating and pruning the tree in hopes of preserving it for another 100 years. The average diameter of a mature white oak measured at breast height is said to be between 2 and 4 feet. The Stamford White Oak had a diameter of 5'1" with a circumference of almost 16 ft. at the time of original designation in 2001. Key attributes that reflect the heritage value of the Stamford White Oak Tree include: • Location of the White Oak tree in proximity to Portage Rd. a well-documented transportation link between Lakes Erie and Ontario. • Longevity of the tree at this particular location • Thought to be only tree remaining from original forest growth in Stamford • Link to the history of Stamford representing a unique value to public because of its size, age and historical association to the City.

Description of Property — Willoughby Township Hall, 11211 Sodom Road The Willoughby Township Hall is a small one-storey civic building located on Sodom Road. Situated in the former Willoughby Township, the building has an intrinsic cultural and historical value to the community. Its simple form and styling represents the type of rural public building common in Ontario in the late 19t century. Statement of Cultural Heritage Value or Interest The Township of Willoughby was settled in 1784; with most of its pioneers coming from the disbanded Butlers' Rangers. Settling along the river and inland creeks, Willoughby received its name in 1792 from Lieutenant-Governor John G. Simcoe. The following year, Simcoe had the Town Offices Act passed at Niagara, which gave Willoughby its first officials. In 1798, a Crown Patent for 400 acres of land was granted to Samuel Street which included the lot on which the Hall is situated. Despite the land's marshy interior and the setbacks from the War of 1812-1814, Willoughby became an incorporated township in 1850 with a Reeve and Councillor. This local political body had no meeting place to conduct township business so monthly meetings were held in various inns and taverns. In 1877, after 27 years of these transient meetings, the township council, under Reeve William Marshall, purchased lands for a permanent township hall. On March 31 , 1877, Jacob Morningstar conveyed one acre of land in the southeast part of Lot 12, Concession 3 to the Corporation of the Township of Willoughby for $75. The Willoughby Township Hall, a one storey clapboard building was erected that same year. In addition to its political usage, the building was also used for church and social programs and was the regular setting for community concerts and stage performances. Notably, two important township organizations began there. The Willoughby Women's Institute, founded in 1907, and the Willoughby Volunteer Fire Department. The Women's Institute has met at the Hall monthly since its inception, while the Fire Department is now located directly across the road. With the amalgamation of Willoughby and the City of Niagara Falls in 1970, the political usage of the building ceased. However, it has continued to serve the community as a meeting place for various social groups in the area. The Willoughby Township Hall is a one storey building with a symmetrical three bay façade. Although its appearance has been altered since its construction in the late 19th century, the building's round headed windows and medium pitch gable roof are still reflective of the building's vernacular Italianate style. Its simple rectangular form features a rear addition on the west (rear) façade and a cement block addition on the south façade near the southwest corner. Both additions were most likely constructed sometime during the mid 20th century. The building's original clapboard exterior has since been covered with asbestos siding. Its medium-pitch roof was likely clad in wood shingles, originally, but has most recently been replaced by asphalt shingles in 2009. On the ridge of the roof near the rear of the structure, is a corbelled brick chimney. The Pact (front) facade is symmetrically arrangerdl with a round headed wind^w on either sine of a central doorway. A modern roofed porch protects the front entrance. The door is a replacement of the original double door. From historic photos, it originally featured a semi-circular fanlight and a round-headed hood mould. Above the door was once a bull's-eye opening that had its mullion arranged in a swirl pattern and featured raised letters and date stone around its perimeter. This window has since been removed. The building's windows consist of round-headed 4 over 4 sash with plain sills. In addition to the two located on the east (front) facade, three more windows are located on the north façade of the building and two on the south façade. The third window on the south façade had been removed with the introduction of the cement block addition. The windows were restored in 2008. To the north of the building is a board and batten maintenance structure, reflecting the rural nature of the area. The Township Hall represents the last vestige of the former rural Township now lost to amalgamation of communities through regionalization of the county government. It is the tangible evidence of the community pride and spirit which developed around the agricultural settlement of Welland County. The Township Hall has a strong historical significance to the area as it was used widely by the community. Description of Heritage Attributes Key exterior features that embody the heritage value and are important to the preservation of 11211 Sodom Road includes the following heritage attributes: • one storey civic building with a symmetrical three bay façade • exterior asbestos siding, a replacement of the original clapboard exterior • medium-pitch roof clad in asphalt shingles, a likely replacement of the original wood shingles • round headed window on either side of a central doorway on the east (front) façade • round-headed 4 over 4 sash windows with plain sills • two windows on the east (front) façade, three windows on the north façade and two on the south façade (originally three) • location of many community group activities • strong significance to the history and development of the Willoughby Township and several of its key political figures.

Description of Property - Carnegie Library, 5017 Victoria Avenue The Carnegie library is a two storey civic building located at the corner of Victoria Avenue and Armoury Street. Serving the Niagara Falls community for over 100 years, the structure features elements of the Neo-classical style and several Beaux Arts elements. Statement of Cultural Heritage Value or Interest In 1909, the Andrew Carnegie Foundation provided a grant of $15,000 for the erection of a Free Public Library Building in the City of Niagara Falls. The building's location on the corner of Victoria Avenue and Armoury Street was chosen specifically for its ease of access for residents. After the purchase of the lot, building plans were drafted and produced by the firm of Robertson and Nichols. William Nichols was described as "one of the best known, artistic, architects in Niagara Falls", and he designed and supervised the erection of many of the finest buildings in the area. The Carnegie library first opened its doors in February 1910, and was used as the city's main library for the next 64 years. The library contributed to the growth of its citizens by providing an inclusive forum for learning. Most notably, the structure contained a variety of books donated from the community and supplied space for seminars in lecture halls. Although the library was closed in 1974, the Carnegie library continues to contribute to the historic character of the area and has been adaptively reused for office space and remains a working part of the community. The Carnegie library's symmetrical design, polychromatic exterior, and subdued, yet rich decorative details are signature characteristics of the Neo-classical revival style. It is a classical display of symmetry with a centrally located main entrance and balanced five bay façade, the central three of which project forward. It features a truncated hip roof with a shallow pitch, two closed pediments with detailed entablature, and a centered portico with square, yellow brick columns and pilasters. The two-storey building is composed of red brick laid in stretcher bond, and sits atop a raised limestone block basement set in an even course with a quarry face finish. Red ribbon-pointing is used for emphasis. The sides of the steps leading up to the centre portico were originally made of wood, but have since been reconstructed using the same materials as the foundation. Along with a built-in cornice gutter, the roof's entablature features a series of wooden dentils and flat modillions, while detailed egg-and-dart decorative bands are found along the top of the portico columns and the roof's architrave. A yellow brick decorative band can also be found above the building's foundation and along its frieze. The front gable pediment contains a red brick tympanum, and features a semi-circular fanlight containing four pie-shaped panes. Alternating long and short yellow brick quoins are placed at the building's corners. The most dominant feature of the Carnegie library is its large two-pane and Venetian-style windows. Originally designed to respond to the need for natural light, almost all of the Ontario Carnegie libraries share this feature, and the design and placement of the windows contribute to the building's overall symmetrical arrangement. The building's uild'ng'S L acades consist of 1 over - sash windows with either lead glass or pebble glass transoms, and centrally located Venetian-style windows. A splayed, yellow brick arch with a raised, brick keystone is used at all window openings except for the 2 over 2 sash basement windows that have a rowlock arch. Between 1901 and 1923, the Andrew Carnegie Foundation had generously provided funds to build 2,509 libraries across North America and Great Britain. Of these, a total of 125 libraries were built in Canada. The Niagara Falls Carnegie library is believed to be the 67th to be built, and stands as one of the 95 remaining Carnegie Libraries in all of Ontario. The structure is considered a rare and special building both locally and provincially. 11r4srtriptinn of HPritaric AttrihiitpQ Key exterior features that embody the heritage value and are important to the preservation of 5017 Victoria Avenue include the following heritage attributes: • polychromatic exterior of red brick laid in stretcher bond and yellow brick • raised limestone foundation with quarry face finish, and red ribbon mortar • symmetrical five bay facade with the central three bays projecting forward • truncated hip roof, including a central gable with a closed pediment • centred portico and square, yellow-brick columns and pilasters • egg-and-dart decorative band above portico columns • i1 tailAd iPiit:ibl dirt with v11i'iriipn, rt ntiig nnri wnrripn hk r..k mndillinnct • large 2-pane and Venetian-styled windows • splayed, yellow brick arch with raised keystone above 1st and 2nd floor windows; a rowlock arch can be found on the basement windows • lead glass transom found above front entrance • built in cornice gutter • alternating long and short, yellow brick quoins • connection to philanthropist Andrew Carnegie and other Carnegie libraries in North America and elsewhere • designed and supervised by noted local architect William Nichols • the 67th to be built and one of the 95 remaining Carnegie libraries in all of Ontario CITY OF NIAGARA FALLS By-law No. 2014- A by-law to amend By-law No. 98-113, being a by-law to designate the property at 5049 Victoria Avenue, known as the Niagara Falls Armoury, to be of historic and architectural value and interest.

Description of Property — Niagara Falls Armoury, 5049 Victoria Avenue The Niagara Falls Armoury is located at the southwest corner of Victoria Avenue and Armoury Street. Built in the style of a late medieval fortress, it is an architectural landmark, with cultural and historical significance to the local community. Statement of Cultural Heritage Value or Interest The Niagara Falls Armoury was constructed in 1911, as a part of a national campaign to reform and expand the Canadian Active Volunteer Militia. It was constructed to serve as the regimental headquarters of the local armed forces. The building was designed by military architect T.W. Fuller and built by the Robertson Construction Company, whose works primarily included many of the other civic buildings in the City, such as the neighbouring Carnegie Library and the Logan Block on Queen Street. The building is constructed of red brick stone foundation, sills, window surrounds, corbels, capping and decorative shields. Initially serving the Lincoln militia, and later the Lincoln and Welland militia, the Niagara Falls Armoury quickly became an integral part of the social and cultural history of the area and functioned as both a training and recruitment centre. The building created a strong military presence in the City and generated a significant amount of national patriotism and local pride among those who served during the First World War. Since then, the Armoury has had a continuing role in military action throughout the Second World War, the Korean War, and until the base's closure in 1998. The design of the Niagara Falls Armoury is inspired by medieval fortifications, and uses a substantial architectural form to create an impression of impregnability. The building is constructed of red brick laid in common bond and a quarry-faced limestone foundation which due to the high foundation, makes the building appear higher that its two storey construction. Carved limestone blocks are also used for the building's decorative elements. It is asymmetrical and features a seven-bay façade, the centre of which is a massive front entrance, emphasized by a projecting surround and triple Tudor Gothic arch. The square plan of the building incorporates various wall treatments which step out at the corners to simulate the appearance of defense towers. The northeast "tower" in particular is distinguished by its relatively massive size and detailed decorative features. This design element combined with the projected features makes it a focal point of the building. A crenellated parapet with limestone accents is located at the northwest corner. Underneath the parapet is a series of stone corbels that run across the front (east) and north façades, while rows of plain buttresses are found around the structure. Three flush stringcourse bands of carved limestone, contrast with the red brick on all sides of the building. Several narrow false openings with limestone sills can be found on the front (east) and north façades. The building has been modified by a covering of paint. The first storey window openings are relatively simple, featuring an arrangement of tall 1 over 1 sash with plain limestone sills. The second storey, in contrast, contains paired sets of 1 over 1 sash windows with transoms above. These windows feature a decorated limestone sill and lintel, with a matching limestone mullion in between. All of the window and door openings are recessed into the building. The front (east) façade of the north tower contains a distinct second storey window, with a raised limestone surround, corbels extending from the sill and a recessed stone crest found above the transoms. Two similar crests are found on the north side of the tower. A more detailed crest, found in the centre of the front (east) façade, features the Ontario coat of arms. The front (east) façade features a prominent date stone above the entranceway, reading "19" "Armoury" and "11". A large field gun, captured from Kaiser Wilhelm's forces at the Battle of Amiens on August 8, 1918, is located on the north corner of the property in front of the building. This gun was donated to the City by Dr. flames F. Barry, who was the medical officer for the Second Canadian Infantry Battalion which captured the gun. It was accepted by Mayor, Harry P. Stevens in October 1918. The gun was completely refurbished in 1966 and is slated for restoration again in 2014. The Niagara halls Armoury is one of the eleven drill halls built in Ontario between 1896 and 1918 through a campaign spearheaded by Frederick Borden, the Minister of Militia and Defense (1896-1911). Borden helped to lead an unprecedented reform which turned the Canadian militia from a disorganized, poorly equipped citizens' militia into a competent fighting unit. As a testament to the development of the Active Volunteer Militia, this armoury is unique in design, which helps to enhance its local identity.
