Diodati and Members of Council City of Niagara Falls, Ontario SUBMITTED BY: Finance Department SUBJECT: F-2014-44 Monthly Tax Receivables Report— September 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 September 30, 2014 were $25.5 million compared to $24.6 million in 2013. During September, tax receivables as a percentage of taxes billed increased slightly from 27.9% in 2013 to 28.2% in 2014. The City's finance staff has had continued success in resolving properties that are subject to registration for 2014. At this stage, 88.2% of properties have developed payment arrangements or have paid in full. There are currently thirty-one 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 lags slightly behind the collection history for 2013. Table 1 shows that taxes outstanding at September 30, 2014 are $25.5 million. This represents an increase from $24.6 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 November 11, 2014 F-2014-44 shows that the taxes owing from the commercial property class has increased from a year ago, whereas the residential property class has decreased. 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 nine months of activity. This table shows 88.2% of the tax accounts or 343 properties have been paid in full or the owners have made suitable payment arrangements. During September, nine accounts were paid in full. In addition, the number of accounts with suitable payment arrangements including full payments increased from 85.3% (August) to 88.2% (September). 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 the future. During the month of September, one registered property was redeemed. The outstanding taxes for registered properties represents 3.5% 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 September 30, 2014 is 28.2% which is a slight increase from 2013's value of 27.9%. The municipality has a record of full collection and earns significant penalty revenues to offset the higher measure.

Diodati and Members of Council City of Niagara Falls, Ontario SUBMITTED BY: Finance Department SUBJECT: F-2014-46 Treasurer's Write Off Report RECOMMENDATION That the property tax accounts listed in Table 1 be written off and expensed in 2014. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The City of Niagara Falls is responsible for billing and collecting property taxes on all assessable properties within the municipality. These annual billings include the annual taxes for the City, for the Region of Niagara and for the appropriate local school boards. The City is charged with the responsibility of collecting said amounts. From time to time the City is faced with the situation where tax collection options have been exhausted. Tax write offs totalling $12,070 are being recommended in this report with allocations to be made to City, Regional and School board revenue. The City's allowance for tax write offs has been budgeted and will be adequate to account for the City's proportionate share of $6,148. BACKGROUND The City's Finance Division conducted a tax sale in May 2014. Tax sales are conducted as the final step after all other collection actions have been exhausted. As a part of the tax collection procedure, staff continues to actively pursue delinquent property owners who fail to pay the taxes for their property. In most cases, the property owner will pay the balance owing but in some cases a tax sale is required to resolve the outstanding taxes. Tax sales in 2014 relate to properties that were registered in 2012. In May 2014, three properties were scheduled for tax sale. Of this, one was paid in full before sale, one was paid as a result of the sale and one resulted in a failed tax sale. A failed tax sale is one in which no bidders provide a submission for the tendered price amount. The failed tax sale property will become the City's property in 2014. November 11, 2014 F-2014-46 ANALYSIS/RATIONALE Section 354 (2) and 354 (3) of The Municipal Act, 2001 provides for the Treasurer of a local municipality to remove unpaid taxes from the tax roll and may write off taxes after an unsuccessful tax sale. Section 354 (2) of The Municipal Act states that "The Treasurer of a local municipality shall remove unpaid taxes from the tax roll if, (a) the council of the local municipality, on the recommendation of the treasurer, writes off the taxes as uncollectible, or (b) the taxes are no longer payable as a result of tax relief under section 319, 345, 357, 358, 362, 364, 365, 365.1 or 365.2 or a decision of any court". Section 354 (3) of The Municipal Act states that "A local municipality may only write off taxes under clause (2) after an unsuccessful tax sale under PART XI and may at that point write off the taxes whether or not the property vests in the municipality under that Part". Since City properties are not subject to property taxation, the City must write off taxes owing. Similarly, the Region and School Board taxes are written off and adjusted in the year end reconciliation with those bodies. Therefore, the properties listed in Table 1 should be written off. FINANCIAL/STAFFING/LEGAL IMPLICATIONS As stated, from time to time, staff will identify amounts that cannot be collected. The 2014 General Purposes Budget includes an allowance for taxes that are deemed uncollectible. Table 1 identifies an amount of $12,070 to be written off, which includes amounts for the City, Region and School Boards. The actual City portion is $6,148. The balance of $5,922 will be recovered from the Region and the School Boards. Once the property taxes are written off, staff will be able to vest the properties to avoid future taxation. Ownership of the properties listed will be subsequently reviewed and a decision will be determined as to whether the properties in question should be retained, or whether these should be deemed surplus land and subsequently sold.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Property owners are able to seek remedy from property assessments that are not accurate due to errors in preparation of the Assessment Roll or due to changes in specific circumstances. These remedies are available by virtue of s.357 and s.358 of The Municipal Act, 2001. This report is provided to Council periodically during the fiscal year to attain Council approval of the changes afforded under these sections. This is the second report for 2014. Adjustments totalling $187,172 are being recommended in this report with allocations to be made to City, Regional and School Board revenue. In the 2014 General Purposes Budget, an allowance has been established for these expenditures. At this time the allowance provided in the General Purposes Budget is adequate to account for the City's proportionate share of approximately $65,510. BACKGROUND This report is the second report this year in relation to s.357 and s.358 reductions. ANALYSIS/RATIONALE Section 357 and 358 of The Municipal Act, 2001 provides for the cancellation, reduction or refund of taxes for persons who were overcharged by reason of any gross or manifest error in the preparation of the Assessment Roll. November 11, 2014 F-2014-47 Appeals have been received and the applicants have been notified that the respective matters will be considered by City Council this evening. The Municipal Property Assessment Corporation has confirmed that the subject properties were assessed incorrectly in that these properties; had structures that had been demolished or removed, were damaged or razed by fire, have ceased to be liable at the rate it was taxed, became exempt, or a transposition, typographical, or clerical error was made. FINANCIAL/STAFFING/LEGAL IMPLICATIONS The 2014 General Purposes Budget provides an allowance for tax write-offs due to assessment appeals and tax write offs. Table 1 is a listing of all the properties that staff is recommending receive adjustments due to successful appeals. An amount of $187,172 in adjustments is listed. The City's approximate portion is $65,510 and has been accounted for in the 2014 General Purposes Budget. The balance of approximately $121,662 represents adjustments for the School Boards and the Region of Niagara. These adjustments will be made as part of the year end reconciliations.

Diodati and Members of the Municipal Council City of Niagara Falls, Ontario SUBMITTED BY: Municipal Works SUBJECT: MW-2014-50 Contract #2014-345-14 Chippawa Boat Ramp Park Shoreline Improvements RECOMMENDATION 1. That the Mayor and Clerk be authorized to execute the agreement for the shoreline works (Part 1 of the Tender) with TDI International; and 2. That staff not proceed with the awarding of Part 2 — Boat Ramp Expansion for reasons outlined in this report; and 3. That funding for the deferred work be referred to the 2015 Capital Budget deliberations for further consideration. That recommendation #1 be approved and that staff seek quotes with an upset limit of EXECUTIVE SUMMARY $50,000 related to Part works. The City of Niagara Falls has partnered with the Chippawa Public Docks Committee to undertake improvements at the Chippawa Boat Ramp Park. The Chippawa Public Docks Committee plans to expand the existing public docks at this site this fall/winter 2014. To allow for this shoreline erosion control improvements are needed. This contract is required to complete the necessary shoreline erosion control improvements at the Chippawa Boat Ramp Park. During the tender period City staff was requested to amend the tender document to include improvements to the existing boat ramp facility on-site. To facilitate the bidding of this work staff separated the tender into two parts. • Part 1 - Shoreline work as originally issued for tender (shoreline) • Part 2 - Expansion of boat ramp facility (boat ramp) Staff are proposing to proceed with Contract #2014-345-14 Chippawa Boat Ramp Park Shoreline Improvements Project Part1 (shoreline) work only at this time. The bid price of the low bid is within existing approved budget. The undertaking of Part 2 (boat ramp) works would require additional funding in the amount of $120,000. Given the election results, the Council does not have authority to approve this additional expenditure until the new Council is sworn in and the Capital Budget approved. Staff is recommending that Part 2 of the contract be re-tendered when/if the new funding is in place. BACKGROUND The Chippawa Boat Ramp Park is located along the Welland River at the intersection of Sodom Road, Main Street and Lyons Creek Parkway (see attachment #1). The park is the hub for public access to the Welland River for Chippawa area boaters. On July 8, 2014 Niagara Falls City Council approved report MW-2014-32, authorizing $50,000 in matching funds to access an awarded Niagara Region WaterSmart grant for shoreline improvements at the Chippawa Boat Ramp Park. This provided a project budget of up to $100,000. These shoreline improvements at the Chippawa Boat Ramp Park are necessary to facilitate the orderly and efficient development of new expanded public docks by the Chippawa Public Docks Committee. These docks will be both funded and constructed for the City by the Chippawa Public Docks Committee. The estimated value of these new docks is $125,000. ANALYSIS/RATIONALE A contract is necessary to enable the shoreline improvements at the Chippawa Boat Ramp Park. The planned shoreline work includes; construction of manufactured stone shoreline wall with riprap toe protection, forestry work, construction of sections of vegetated natural shoreline restoration, boat ramp erosion protection, post & rope barrier and related landscaping (see attachment#2). A tender call was issued for the project on Sept 23, 2014 with the planned closing on October 7, 2014. The tender estimate was $85,000. After issuing the tender, members of the Chippawa Public Docks Committee made a request of City staff to expand the shoreline improvement tender to include the expansion of the boat ramp facility on-site to allow for greater service capacity. This request was supported by 4 members of Council. In response to this request City staff issued Addenda 1 and 2 of the contract (see attachment #3). These addenda extended the tender closing to October 21, 2014 and included the boat ramp facility expansion for bidding. For flexibility in the contract award, City staff separated the project tender into two parts. These are; • Part 1 - Shoreline work as originally issued for tender (shoreline) • Part 2 - Expansion of boat ramp facility (boat ramp) The replacement of the existing concrete boat ramps at the Chippawa Boat Ramp Park November 11, 2014 - 3 - MW-2014-50 are not identified in the 10year infrastructure needs assessment for parks. Any significant construction delays may have a negative impact on the existing funding arrangements (including grants) that Chippawa Public Docks Committee have secured for the dock expansions. Seven (7) bidders responded to the tender call. Peninsula Construction submitted a non-compliant bid for Part 1 (shoreline) work. In addition CSL Group submitted a non-compliant bid for Part 2 (boat ramp) work but their bid for Part 1 (shoreline) met tender requirements. As a result, 6 acceptable bids were received for Part 1 (shoreline) and 1 acceptable bid was received for Part 2 (boat ramp). Based on the added expense and the current satisfactory physical condition of the existing boat ramps, City staff recommend that we proceed with Part 1 (shoreline) work only and that City Council award the contract to the low bidder TDI International (54 Cardigan Street, Guelph ON N1 H 3Z6) for the amount of $79,730.57(excluding HST). This bid is within the approved budget and meets all requirements. In light of the recent municipal election, less than three-quarters of the members of the new council will have been members of the outgoing council, which basically translates into the fact that three (3) non-incumbents were elected for the next Council term. As a result, the Council is restricted from certain acts or decisions under s. 275(3) of the Municipal Act (commonly referred to as the "lame duck" provisions). Council cannot make any expenditure or incur any other liability which exceeds $50,000m unless the expenditure had been previously approved in the budget. As Part 2 of the tender, the Boat Ramp Expansion, is not identified in the budget and exceeds $50,000, Council is restricted from approving the expenditure. FINANCIAL/STAFFING/LEGAL IMPLICATIONS The cost of the award of Part 1 (shoreline) work only is within the existing approved capital budget for this project. No additional funds will be necessary. This tender represents one part of the overall project and further expenditures will be made. Section 275(3)(d) of the Municipal Act restricts the out-going Council from committing any unbudgeted expenditure in excess of$50,000. CITY'S STRATEGIC COMMITMENT Promote awareness and opportunities for active living by providing accessible recreational facilities and green space for Niagara Falls residents.

BOAT RAMP NF-1 NF-1 2 MW-2014-51 November 11, 2014 NiagaraJalls REPORT TO: Mayor James M. Diodati and Members of the Municipal Council City of Niagara Falls, Ontario SUBMITTED BY: Municipal Works SUBJECT: MW-2014-51 Watermain Cleaning and Lining Pilot Project Cancellation and Reallocation of Funding RECOMMENDATION 1. Remaining funds from the Watermain Cleaning and Lining Pilot Project be reallocated accordingly amongst the proposed watermain replacement projects. 2. That the 2014 Capital Budget be amended to include the additional watermain replacement projects. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The proposed watermain replacement projects will collectively include the replacement of 2.8km of existing watermain in various locations by open cut construction. The recommended watermains have been identified for replacement by operations and infrastructure staff due to age, break history, and/or condition rating. The City has conducted topographical surveys in the identified areas and design is intended to be completed internally by City staff; however, design budget is required to complete geotechnical subsurface investigations. The results of the investigations are necessary to complete the final design and construction of the proposed watermain. It is recommended that the proposed geotechnical investigations be funded by reallocating the remaining budget from the previously approved Watermain Cleaning and Lining Pilot Project, which has been cancelled. BACKGROUND In 2013 council approved the Watermain Cleaning and Relining Pilot Program in the City of Niagara Falls. City staff researched new technologies and met with leading manufacturers and contractors. In Ontario, Cured-in-Place Pipe (CIPP) Lining and Cement Mortar Lining (CML) are both commonly utilized watermain lining technologies by Municipalities. CIPP liner is a Class IV structural liner (liner is considered a new pipe with November 11, 2014 - 2 - MW-2014-51 full structural capabilities). For CML, the liner is considered a Class I liner (liner relies on the existing pipe to provide the structural support). Class II and Ill are semi-structural liners and include technologies such as spray on epoxy and polyurethanes liners. These liners were not observed to be common practice in Ontario. As the class of liner increases, the cost of the liner typically increases concurrently. Through the research conducted, staff determined that additional information was needed to identify the class of watermain lining required. Echologics Engineering conducted a non-invasive condition assessment of the watermains selected for lining. The resulting Watermain Condition Assessment Report identified an average pipe wall thickness loss per watermain and a subsequent pipe classification rating. All tested watermain scored either a "moderate" or "poor" rating. A poor rating indicates a requirement for full structural liners; i.e., Class IV Liner, and a moderate rating indicates the need to look at a semi or full structural liner; i.e., Class II Liners or greater. Therefore, a semi or full structural liner would be required for the watermains in the Watermain Cleaning and Relining Pilot Program. Upon identification of the preferred liner, staff completed a review of known tenders. The results of the review indicated that watermain lining would likely prove more expensive than traditional open cut installation and restoration when installed in Niagara Falls. An internal memo outlining staff findings and recommendations was prepared and distributed. The memo recommended that the Watermain Cleaning and Lining Pilot Program be temporarily suspended and reviewed at a later date. Several watermains were identified for rehabilitation in 2014 by infrastructure and operations staff due to age, break history, and/or condition rating. Staff proposes to replace 2.8km of watermain with traditional open cut construction. Topographical surveys and design work will be completed by City staff; however, design funds are required to initiate geotechnical subsurface soil investigations. The investigations are necessary to complete the design and construction of the watermains. A summary of the proposed works and requested budget is provided below. PROJECT LIST LENGTH TOTAL Wedgewood Crescent 150m $10,000.00 Rendall Crescent 100m $10,000.00 Dorchester Road (McLeod Road to Jill Drive) 350m $15,000.00 Empire Place, Butler Place and Secord Place 340m $15,000.00 Vine Street, Coholan Street and Dayman Avenue 1,500m $45,000.00 Potter Heights and 285m $15,000.00 Wiltshire Boulevard (Cambridge Street to South Limit) Pettit Avenue (Doreen Drive to CNR Corridor) 75m $10,000.00 TOTAL 2,800m $120,000 November 11, 2014 - 3 - MW-2014-51 ANALYSIS/RATIONALE There is currently $282,951.13 remaining in the Watermain Cleaning and Relining Pilot Program. Staff has recommended that this program be temporarily suspended and reviewed at a later date. FINANCIAL/STAFFING/LEGAL IMPLICATIONS The 2.8km of proposed open cut watermain replacement projects were not approved in the 2014 Capital Budget; however, the remaining funding for the Watermain Cleaning and Relining Pilot Program will be used to fund portions of the project that require outsourcing (i.e. geotechnical investigation). CITY'S STRATEGIC COMMITMENT Implementation of the Capital Projects meets the intent of Council's Strategic Priorities to establish infrastructure investment priorities, and to strengthen and promote economic development within the City. LIST OF ATTACHMENTS 1. MEMORANDUM: Watermain Cleaning and Lining Pilot Program Research Summary and Program Recommendation 2. Watermain Cleaning and Relining Pilot Program Capital Budget Tracking Sheet •.J Recommended by: H ,.� Geoff Holman, Dire&tor of Municipal Works Respectfully submitted: Ken Todd, Chief Administrative Officer Livia McEachern Attachment#1 - MW-2014-51 City of Niagara Falls Municipal Works Department Memorandum TO: Geoff Holman DATE: April 17, 2014 Kent Schachowskoj Sue Wheeler James Sticca FROM: Livia McEachern RE: Watermain Cleaning and Lining Pilot Program Research Summary and Program Recommendation Watermain lining is a relatively young technology and new to the City of Niagara Falls; therefore, I have conducted research on the two most commonly used lining technologies in Ontario; Cured-in-Place Pipe (CIPP) Lining and Cement Mortar Lining (CML). I've looked at how they are being utilized municipally as a tool for asset rehabilitation in Ontario and the associated cost implications. Many municipalities have an annual program of watermain lining with annual budgets at or above one million dollars. These municipalities claim a savings over open cut replacement at a rate of one third the costs for CML and two thirds the costs for CIPP. However, the open cut replacement costs utilized for the comparison were from densely populated areas with high traffic counts and high utility volumes. Open cut replacement costs for Niagara Falls tend to be low when compared to larger congested urban areas. The data represented in Table 1 below was assembled from tender information available in Southern Ontario for municipalities from Sudbury to Peterborough from 2007 to 2014. The information is presented for the two more commonly utilized watermain lining techniques in Ontario, CIPP and CML. The CIPP liner is a Class IV structural liner (liner is considered a new pipe with full structural capabilities) and the estimated service life of the lined pipe is now 50 years from the date of the liner installation. For CML, the liner is considered a Class I liner (liner relies on the existing pipe to provide the structural support)and the estimated service life of the host pipe is not extended with the installation of the liner. Table 1: Summary of Watermain Lining Tender Results in Southern Ontario from 2007 to 2014 Liner Method CIPP & CML CIPP Only CML Only Costs per Meter $585 $795 $375 Sample Size 14 7 7 Average Cost of Tender $2,150,000 $3,687,400 $1,124,500 Average Size of Tender(m) 3,500 3,900 3,150 Working Together to Serve Our Community Page 2 Through my tender review, I noted that FerPal, located in Toronto (North York), was a repeatedly successful Contractor. Additional successful bidders included Aquarehab located in Quebec, Trisan in Schomberg, Main Rehabilitation in Toronto (Etobicoke), and New Tide Construction in Toronto. A local Contractor capable of watermain lining rehabilitation work, located closer to Niagara Falls than Toronto, was not found. No tender information was found for the Niagara Region. The closest municipality found to utilize watermain lining was the City of Hamilton, who currently holds a 3-year contract with FerPal at over$3 million per year. Typically, but not always, a correlation was observed between project size and contract price, such that more cost-effective tenders (lower costs per meter)occurred as contract size increased. As part of this review, FerPal, a prominent contractor for both CML and CIPP watermain lining, was contacted and questioned. FerPal noted that a minimum of 1.5 km of watermain lining was required for the price of CIPP watermain lining to become competitive with open cut watermain replacement. FerPal's estimation was based on open cut watermain replacement versus CIPP watermain lining in the Greater Toronto Area. The current budget for the watermain cleaning and lining program is $300,000, with approximately 283,000 remaining after the completion of Echologics recently completed Condition Assessment. The program includes approximately 640m of 150mm DI watermain and 70m of ductile iron (assumed) 100mm watermain. The estimated price, utilizing the estimates for price per meter above, to clean and line the 710m of watermain is shown in Table 2. Table 2: Estimated Costs to Clean and Line 710m of Watermain Liner Method CIPP & CML CIPP Only CML Only Costs per Meter $585 $795 $375 Costs for 710m of Local WM $415,350 $564,450 $153,750 As discussed in the Watermain Condition Assessment Report from Echologics (see summary presented in Table 3), no leaks were detected along the watermains at the six (6) sites tested; however, the average pipe wall thickness loss ranged from 17-53%. The pipes with pipe wall thickness loss ranging from 17-25% were considered to be in moderate condition (2 sites). The pipes with pipe wall thickness loss ranging from 36-53% were considered to be in poor condition (3 sites). Results for the final site (Oakes Park)were inconclusive. The pipe diameter was also noted as 100mm, which is too small to employ lining techniques. As a result of the Condition Assessment, the lining contract shall include 640m of watermain. Table 3: Summary of Echologics Watermain Condition Assessment Results (November 2013) Street Name Length (m) Predicted Pipe Pipe Classification Wall Loss (%) Wedgewood Crescent 135 45.1 Poor Wiltshire Boulevard 120 36.7 Poor Potter Heights 140 17.3 Moderate Pettit Avenue 175 24.9 Moderate Rendall Crescent 70 53.0 Poor Oakes Park 70 Inconclusive TOTAL/CONCLUSION 640 Structural Liner Required Working Together to Serve Our Community Page 3 A pipe in poor condition indicates a need to look at a full structural liner; i.e., Class IV Liner, and a pipe in moderate condition indicates the need to look at a semi or full structural liner; i.e., Class II Liners or greater. The CML Liner is a Class I Liner and does not offer structural pipe support. CIPP is more costly but it is a Class IV, full structural liner. Class II/III Liners include technologies such as spray on epoxy and polyurethanes liners. Tender information for Class II/III Liners was not found in Ontario. It should be noted that watermain breaks have been recorded on the two watermains with pipe wall thickness losses of 17.3% and 36.7%, respectively. CML is not recommended for use on pipes that have experienced watermain breaks. A full structural liner, such as CIPP, is strongly recommended when watermain breaks have occurred. In a similar sized project study, CIPP Lining of a similar scope took 10 weeks from onset to completion and residents were on bypass water lines for approximately 6 weeks. Due to the bypass requirement, lining is weather dependent and is typically completed during warmer months; from approximately the end of March to the end of October. It is possible to complete the lining during winter months if there are no services to the main and bypass is not required. The project steps that were undertaken are described briefly below and are typical of a CIPP lining operation. Please note that a local Contractor would most likely be retained for all steps excluding the watermain cleaning and lining, steps 4 to 11 below, which would be completed by the lining Contractor. CIPP Project Steps 1 Locate pipe. 2 Install temporary by-pass through water meters or garden spigots (bypass remains until step 14). It should be noted that access inside the home is required during this step. If water use is to be metered, additional steps may be required. 3 Excavate access pits at each end of the section. Access pits are required every 150m or at bends greater than 45 degrees. The restriction at bends greater than 45 degrees is due to the limitations with the camera equipment, not the lining process. Access pits are generally located at existing valves to coordinate valve replacement. 4 Clean pipe with metal chain reamer and water pressure jets. Swabs are then sent through to dry the pipe. Tuberculated material is settled out to the bottom of the access chamber and rising water is pumped to the sanitary or storm system as directed by the municipality. Settled tuberculated material is left in the base of the pit unless otherwise specified in the contract. 5 Closed-Circuit Television (CCTV) inspection to chain the service connections. 6 With specialized robotic equipment, insert plug in every service connection from inside the pipe. 7 Impregnate liner on-site by injecting the epoxy between the two layers of liner while pulling the liner in place. 8 Form the liner by sending swabs from one end to the other. 9 Circulate hot water for curing. 10 Perform hydrostatic pressure testing. 11 Reinstate service connections by drilling with specialized robotic equipment from inside the pipe. Services 50mm or greater cannot be drilled. These services must be reinstated by excavation. Excavation is also required if there are deficiencies at any of the service connections. 12 Disinfect the pipe. Working Together to Serve Our Community Page 4 13 Reconnect the water distribution system. 14 Remove temporary by-pass. 15 Restore site (access pits, etc.). For due diligence, a review of watermain replacement tender results from 2008 to 2013 in the City of Niagara Falls was completed and the results are provided in Table 4. Design costs were used or estimated to provide the total costs and all incurred installation and restoration costs were included. It should be noted that water services were replaced to property line with the open cut contracts and water services were not replaced in the reviewed lining contracts. Table 4: Summary of Open Cut Watermain Replacement Costs in the City of Niagara Falls from 2008 to 2013 Open Cut Watermain Replacement Statistics Costs per Meter $660 Sample Size 9 Average Cost of Tender and Design $574,000 Average Size of Tender (m) 1,005 It is anticipated that tender bids for 640m CIPP lining in Niagara Falls will exceed the allotted budget. The estimated price, utilizing the estimates for price per meter previously discussed, to clean and line 640m of watermain is shown in Table 5. Also included in Table 5 is the estimated open cut replacement cost for 640m of watermain. Table 5: CIPP Lining versus Open Cut Replacement Costs for 640m of Watermain Method CIPP Lining Open Cut Replacement Estimated Tender Cost $508,800 $422,400 Therefore, it is recommended that the watermain cleaning and lining program be temporarily suspended and reviewed at a later date until such time as one or more of the following has occurred: 1 Additional reductions in cost for CIPP watermain lining. 2 Launch of a new cost-effective Class IV lining technology. 3 Emergence of one or more local vendors. 4 Increase in contract size (over 1.5 km)from increase in City requirements or a partnership with one or more local area municipalities.

Diodati and Members of the Municipal Council City of Niagara Falls, Ontario SUBMITTED BY: Planning, Building & Development SUBJECT: PBD-2014-55 Matters Arising from Municipal Heritage Committee Update of Designating By-laws RECOMMENDATION That Council pass the updated Designating By-laws that are listed on tonight's agenda for the following properties: • 6151 Culp Street-James Ingle House • 3394-3428 Portage Road • 4891 Portage Road • 7820 Portage Road • 4851 River Road • 7906 Schisler Road • 3174 St. Patrick Avenue • 3360 St. Patrick Avenue • 2922 St. Paul Avenue • 3289 St. Paul Avenue • 4223 Terrace Avenue • 4761 Zimmerman Avenue EXECUTIVE SUMMARY In order to assist with the preservation of the heritage of the City, the designating by-laws for all properties designated under the Ontario Heritage Act are being updated. The updates relate to the legal descriptions and also the heritage attributes that in many cases were vague and incomplete. 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. The draft by-laws were sent to each property owner together with a letter explaining the reasons for the proposed changes.All property owners agreed with the proposed changes. 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 November 11, 2014 -2 - PBD-2014-55 when dealing with heritage properties insofar as heritage attributes are now better described. Each draft by-law was sent to the respective property owner to review and provide comments. All of the property owners agreed with the proposed changes. 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-2014-56 Soccer Netting at St. Michael's High School RECOMMENDATION For the information of Council. BACKGROUND This report is a follow-up to Council's motion of September 23, 2014, " that Staff report back on the approval of the soccer netting at St. Michael High School and attempt to remediate any negative impacts on the neighbouring properties." The complaints of the neighbours is that they were not consulted and that the netting will block their views and will devalue their properties. St. Michael's Highschool was constructed in 2002 and had an expansion at the back of the school in 2013. Behind the school are a soccer field and football field as well as other open playing fields. With the addition to the school and re-routing of the driveway behind the school, the space for the soccer field became too small, necessitating the relocation of the soccer field to the north east quadrant of the school property. The changes necessitated an amendment to the Site Plan for the property. The Site Plan revisions provided for the inclusion of netting suspended from poles along the rear lot lines of 5 residential properties on St. Michael Avenue and 1 property on McGarry Drive. The installation of the poles and nets has been of concern to the 6 abutting homeowners. The changes to the Site Plan were approved because they complied with the provisions of the Zoning By-law. Site Plan review is not subject to any form of legislated public consultation because site planning cannot take away property rights conferred by zoning. The school property has been zoned Institutional (I)since the time the subdivision plan was approved for the area. The zoning by-law includes a set of regulations for Public Services; the school board is considered to be a public board for the interpretation of this section of the by-law. Under the regulations, the poles which will support the netting are structures, but are not subject to any setback requirement from the lot lines. In reviewing the request for the site plan amendment, staff found that in addition to meeting the zoning the provisions, the netting would help prevent balls from being kicked into residential rear yards thus reducing the liabilities associated with damaged plants and properties. It would also reduce the impulse of a soccer player from traversing the 4 foot chain link fence to retrieve and errant soccer balls. Staff believed the School Board was being proactive in the plans to install the netting. November 11, 2014 -2 - PBD-2014-56 Staff followed-up the neighbour's complaints with Mr. Whittard, Principal at St. Michael's Highschool. The Principal stated that the netting would only be in place for 6 weeks in the spring during soccer season, plus a week or two on either side for installation or removal. In essence, the netting would be in place for only a fraction of the 52 weeks per year. Staff convened a meeting with the school Principal and the area residents on October 17, 2014. The Principal reiterated that the netting would only be up for a short period of time in the spring and would be taken down and put into storage. He stated the netting is too expensive to leave up for longer periods due to the deteriorating effects the weather would have on the netting. The Principal also stated that it was too expensive to remove the 16 poles at the end of soccer season to put into storage and that removal would also necessitate the purchase of an expensive trailer to haul the posts. The posts are black which are considered to be less visibly intrusive. It was explained that the netting would not block the view any more than the netting around the rink at a hockey game or that of a chain link fence. The residents wondered if the netting could not be moved away from the common fence line. At the end of the meeting, the Principal stated he would delay the installation of the posts and would look into one more option to determine whether it was financially feasible. On November 3rd, Staff spoke with the Principal to see whether or not the netting could be moved closer to and parallel to the end of the soccer field. The Principal reported that the cost to move the posts and thus the netting was in the $10,000 to $15,000 range and was outside the project budget. CONCLUSION There is no legislated requirement to consult with the public on site plans or amendments. In hindsight, much good will would have been served had the City or School contacted the six affected residents beforehand. It was found that the location of the poles and netting complies with the zoning by-law and there is no legal mechanism to have the poles removed. The netting will be up for only a short period each year. The poles will be minimally intrusive to the view. The Principal is sympathetic to the residents and has met on a number of occasions on this and other matters of interest to the abutting residents. Obviously a little give and take is necessary where a major school facility interfaces with residential properties. LIST OF ATTACHMENTS ► No attachments.

Diodati and Members of the Municipal Council City of Niagara Falls, Ontario SUBMITTED BY: Recreation & Culture SUBJECT: R&C-2014-14 Gale Centre Lighting Retrofit, RFT 55-2014 RECOMMENDATION 1. The contract be awarded to Osram Sylvania at the tendered price of $288,205.70 including HST; 2. The revised Capital Budget sheet for Gale Centre Energy Projects project be approved; and 3. That the Mayor and City Clerk be authorized to execute the necessary contract documents. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Gale Centre was opened June, 2010. After the first operating season was completed, staff recognized for Council that the energy costs were greater than anticipated. Council report RC-2012-05 provided direction to staff to look at opportunities to reduce utility costs at the facility. In the 2014 Capital Budget, $293,400 was approved for projects identified in the Gale Centre Energy Efficiency Review. Originally, improvements to the mechanical system were prioritized but timing challenges have led to the project being deferred until 2015. As a result, the lighting retrofit project which was originally slated for 2015, was tendered. The tender price is within the approved net expenditure and is further offset by 50% funding from the"save on Energy Retrofit Program". Similarly,the retrofit was identified in the City's Energy Plan and will result in a reduction of approximately 55% in electrical use annually. BACKGROUND City Council report R&C-2012-05 directed staff to implement the below recommendations: 1. Complete the review of the energy efficiency of the Gale Centre and prepare an update report to Council. Working with energy consultations staff reviewed the overall energy efficiencies of the Gale Centre and reported back to Council in 2013. Two capital projects, with a payback of 2.5 to 3.5 years were recommended: November 11, 2014 -2 - R&C-2014-14 • Retrofit the lighting systems at the Gale Centre to reduce utility costs and to improve overall lighting and controls. • Enhance the mechanical systems, instal variable speed pumps. 2. Reduce operation costs by shutting down one to two pads at the Gale Centre in the summer months. Operating two to three pads of ice during the summer months will assist in lowering utility costs and labour costs. During the months of May to late August ice is installed in three pads (2, 3,4). With the removal of ice in the spectator rink, pad one utility costs have been reduced by approximately $10,000 per month during the summer months. Staff continue to review the spring/summer ice utilization to determine if two or three pads of ice are required. ANALYSIS/RATIONALE The Tender Opening Committee, in the presence of the City Clerk, Dean lorfida, and the Director of Recreation & Culture, opened tenders on Thursday, October 30th, 2014. Contractor City Tender Price Osram Sylvania Mississauga $288,205.70 Weinmann Electric Ltd. Fort Erie $376,471.93 FINANCIAL/STAFFING/LEGAL IMPLICATIONS The City's Energy Plan identified two projects to reduce energy consumption at the Gale Centre. Originally, improvements to the mechanical systems at the Gale Centre were approved in the 2014 Capital Budget at the cost of$293,800. Due to project timing issues the project was delayed and will be budgeted in the 2015 capital budget. As a result, the second energy project identified in the energy plan was tendered.The lighting retrofit project will be completed during the winter season at no inconvenience to arena users.

Diodati And Members of the Municipal Council City of Niagara Falls, Ontario SUBMITTED BY: Transportation Services Department SUBJECT: TS-2014-32 Lowell Avenue - Parking Review RECOMMENDATION That a 2-hour parking limit, except by permit zone, is established on both sides of Lowell Avenue from a point 22 metres south of North Street to a point 80 metres south of North Street. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The recommended parking control will allow drivers to park for up to 2 hours, except for the abutting residents who will be eligible to acquire a parking permit and be able to park for up to 12 hours. BACKGROUND Lowell Avenue is a local residential road that extends two and one-half blocks from North Street to a dead end south of Latshaw Street. The road is 10 metres wide with a sidewalk on each side. There are no signed parking controls on Lowell Avenue except for a corner parking restriction which is present on both sides of Lowell Avenue from North Street to a point 22 metres south of North Street. Lowell Avenue is one block west of the Greater Niagara General Hospital. Staff carried out a parking review of Lowell Avenue earlier this year. The concern stemmed from hospital staff parking on Lowell Avenue for the duration of the day to avoid paying for parking at the hospital. Observations revealed that vehicles were regularly seen parked on both sides of Lowell Avenue generally in the northern half of the road segment. Residents were given the opportunity to comment on the parking situation and their parking preference via a questionnaire. However the minimum response rate for the block was not achieved as only five of the 24 residents replied, representing a 21% response rate. Staff recommended the installation of a corner parking restriction on both sides of Lowell Avenue to prevent motorists from parking their vehicles too close to the intersection. ANALYSIS/RATIONALE November 11, 2014 -2- TS-2014-32 Staff was recently asked to reassess the parking situation. Additional site investigations identified that the parking pattern has remained consistent. Up to twelve(12)vehicles have been seen parked on this road segment during the day. Although a general consensus was not achieved for the entire block,the five homeowners that did respond to the questionnaire all reside near North Street and each preferred to establish some form of a parking restriction. One additional resident identified that they would like the restriction extended to include the frontage of their home. Given the foregoing, Staff is recommending that a 2-hour parking zone, except by permit is established on both sides of Lowell Avenue from a point 22 metres south of North Street to a point 80 metres south of North Street. The restriction will encompass each of the respondent's homes. FINANCIAL/STAFFING/LEGAL IMPLICATIONS The installation of the signs is carried out by Transportation Services staff. The labour and material cost has been accounted for in the 2014 General Purposes Budget. The estimated cost to install the signs is approximately $700. 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 A stop sign is warranted facing eastbound and westbound motorists on Hamilton Street at Homewood Avenue. In each case drivers will be required to stop before entering the intersection. BACKGROUND City Staff has been requested to investigate the feasibility of installing a stop sign at the intersection of Hamilton Street at Homewood Avenue.Currently,there is no control at the study location. ANALYSIS/RATIONALE Study results indicate that stop control is warranted at the intersection of Hamilton Street at Homewood Avenue. The visibility triangle requirement for the basic right-of-way rule is not met,thus warranting additional controls. This is common in developed residential areas with buildings and fencing normally constructed within the visibility clear zone. A collision review revealed that no collisions have been reported at this intersection in the previous three-year period. FINANCIAL/STAFFING/LEGAL IMPLICATIONS The installation of the stop signs is to be carried out by Transportation Services staff. The labour and material costs are accounted for in the approved 2014 General Purposes Budget. November 11, 2014 - 2 - TS-2014-35 Cost studies estimate that the cost to install the signs is approximately $300.

Diodati and Members of the Municipal Council City of Niagara Falls, Ontario SUBMITTED BY: Transportation Services Department SUBJECT: TS-2014-36 Banker Avenue between Emery Street & Summer Street Parking & Intersection Control Review RECOMMENDATIONS 1. That a parking prohibition, except by permit zone is established on both sides of Banker Avenue between Emery Street and Summer Street. 2. That a stop sign is installed facing southbound motorists on BankerAvenue at Summer Street. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The recommended parking prohibition is supported by the majority of residents to mitigate concerns with hospital staff parking on Banker Avenue for the duration of the day. A visibility review determined that a stop sign is warranted facing southbound motorists on Banker Avenue at Summer Street. Drivers will be required to stop before entering the intersection. BACKGROUND Banker Avenue is a local residential road that extends from Emery Street to Summer Street. The road is 8.9 metres wide with a sidewalk on each side. There are no signed parking controls on Banker Avenue. Banker Avenue is one block south of the Greater Niagara General Hospital.The concern stemmed from hospital staff parking on Banker Avenue for the duration of the day to avoid paying for parking at the hospital. Observations revealed that vehicles were regularly seen parked on both sides of Banker Avenue. Staff have identified a visibility concern at the intersection of Banker Avenue at Summer Street. Currently, the intersection does not have any form of traffic control. City Staff has conducted a review to determine whether a visibility problem exists, and whether any remedial action is necessary. November 11, 2014 -2- TS-2014-36 ANALYSIS/RATIONALE Parking questionnaires were delivered to each household on Banker Street requesting the homeowner's input as to the preferred parking regulations.Of the 13 questionnaires delivered, 8 responses were received yielding a 62 percent response rate.All respondents indicated a preference for a form of parking restriction. Six requested"no parking except by permit,one requested a limited time parking of 2 hours, one requested no parking at anytime. The questionnaires indicated a consensus towards a parking restriction with the No Parking, Except By Permit restriction on either side of BankerAvenue being the preferred restriction. In accordance with the results, staff is recommending that a No Parking, Except By Permit restriction is established. The intersection visibility study results indicate that stop control is warranted at the intersection of BankerAvenue at Summer Street. The visibility triangle requirement for the basic right-of- way rule is not met, thus warranting additional controls. This is common in developed residential areas with buildings and fencing normally constructed within the visibility clear zone.

That parking and stopping prohibitions be installed on Brown Road and Kalar Road; and, 2. That the bicycle lanes be designated by municipal by-law. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY To ensure unimpeded traffic mobility on Brown Road and Kalar 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"and"no stopping" restrictions on both sides. These regulations are consistent with those established on newly reconstructed arterial roads in this part of the City. BACKGROUND Brown Road between a point 50 metres east of Kalar Road to a point 530 metres west of Kalar Road as well as Kalar Road between Brown Road and a point 100 metres north of Brown Road is currently being reconstructed. Designated cycling lanes will be provided in both directions within the limits of the construction project. An urban cross-section consisting of a curb and gutter on both sides and a boulevard and sidewalk on the north side of Brown Road and the west side of Kalar Road will be provided. Street light poles will be provided that is consistent with an urban setting. These improvements are being carried out to accommodate traffic future growth in the Warren Woods area to the immediate north. ANALYSIS/RATIONALE Currently,there are no signed parking/stopping restrictions present on either Brown Road or Kalar Road within the limits of the construction project. November 11, 2014 -2- TS-2014-37 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 on both sides of the road with the exception of a "no stopping" restrictions on both sides within 60 metres of the Brown Road and Kalar Road intersection. The reconstruction project is expected to be completed in November 2014. FINANCIAL/STAFFING/LEGAL IMPLICATIONS The installation of the signs is carried out by Transportation Services staff.

Diodati and Members of the Municipal Council City of Niagara Falls, Ontario SUBMITTED BY: Transportation Services Department SUBJECT: TS-2014-38 Administrative Monetary Penalties System (AMPS) Hearing Officer Services Agreement RECOMMENDATION 1. That Council approve entering into a one year trial agreement with the City of Thorold for the services of a Hearing Officer for the purpose of addressing parking infractions through the Administrative Monetary Penalties process. 2. That the Mayor and Clerk are authorized to execute the necessary agreements. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Earlier this year Council approved (report TS-2014-15) the implementation of the Administrative Monetary Penalty System (AMPS) to replace the Provincial Offence Act (P.O.A.) Court System for Part II parking matters, as well as the service of a Hearing Officer to support the new process. The City of Thorold has spearheaded the move to AMP by passing the necessary bylaws and hiring a Hearing Officer and as a cost cutting measure have offered to provide a shared Hearing Officer to local communities to address disputed parking infractions for one year trial period (includes administration costs), to allow for evaluation of the process. BACKGROUND Recent amendments to the Municipal Act allow municipalities to establish a system of administrative penalties for the enforcement of parking and licensing By-laws. The changes also permit a municipal council to delegate its quasi-judicial and administrative functions to individuals appointed by the municipal council, such as an officer, employee, or agent of the municipality. The City of Thorold has moved forward with the AMP process and the hiring of a Hearing officer. To reduce the overhead cost of the Hearing Officer and to maintain a level of un bias review of parking matter disputes, the City of Thorold has offered the shared services of this individual through an agreement to perform hearings regarding contested infractions in a Quasi-judicial format that would be held at the City of Thorold as it is central to all the municipalities looking to enter into the agreement. The use of a shared hearing officer would reduce cost for each municipality. November 11, 2014 -2 - TS-2014-38 ANALYSIS/RATIONALE The City of Thorold, Town of Grimsby, Town of West Lincoln, Town of Niagara on the Lake and the City of Niagara Falls considering sharing the Hearing Officer appointed by the City of Thorold. Hearings are scheduled to be held the third Tuesday of the month at the City of Thorold as a central location for all municipalities. Each municipality would have the ability to have hearings monthly on the assigned date, increasing the cities resolution time and customer service performance. The agreement proposed is a one year trial agreement as all Municipalities are unfamiliar with the new AMP process and will evaluate the process and results upon completion of that year. FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS The agreement to share a hearing officer with the City of Thorold is estimated to cost$800. annually. CITY'S STRATEGIC COMMITMENT The AMPS will work in conjunction with the City's goal of providing improved customer service as it will allow more timely resolution of parking matters, while at the same time providing greater control over the cost recovery for parking infractions. / 17 Recommended by: K6 Karl Dren, Director of Transportation Services ‘21414j\)-.

RE: World AIDS Day Proclamation Whereas HIV/AIDS remains an urgent public concern worldwide, in Niagara it is estimated that more than 550 people are living with HIV. Whereas HIV related stigma and discrimination can prevent people from getting the treatment and care needed to strengthen their health and well-being. Whereas myths and misinformation about HIV related issues limits people's capacity to make healthier choices which contributes to the spread of HIV infections. Whereas we recognize the important role the community of Niagara has in achieving the World Health Organizations goal of"Getting to zero: zero new HIV infections. Zero discrimination. Zero AIDS related deaths" by 2015. Therefore, the Niagara Falls City Council proclaims December 1st, 2014, World AIDS Day.

PURPOSE To respond to the direction provided to staff at the April 2, 2014 and April 23, 2014 Corporate Services Committee meetings. BUSINESS IMPLICATIONS This report presents an update to the estimates from CSD 24-2006 related to the financial implications that may be involved in a disbandment of the Niagara Regional Police Service in order to enter into an agreement for policing services with the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP). Similar to 2006, the estimates are preliminary and exclude additional costs that may be required for the OPP related to capital, facilities and equipment. It also excludes the costs related to a joint implementation team. The process to undertake a detailed cost assessment, including several important considerations previously noted by the OPP, is outlined in report CSD 167-2005. REPORT Under Section 5 of the Police Services Act (PSA), a municipality may utilize one of several options in order to provide policing services, including establishing a police force (either independently or jointly) or contracting services from the OPP. The OPP, which fall under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Community Safety and Correctional Services, services such contracts through its Municipal Policing Bureau. In 2006, report CSD 24-2006 was presented to Regional Council and included information related to the cost of policing services, as well as a preliminary estimate of the transition cost to move towards OPP-provided policing services. As requested by 1 CSD 74-2014 September 3, 2014 Council in April of 2014, an update to those 2006 estimates has been undertaken and the additionally requested supplemental information has been compiled. Current OPP-Serviced Municipalities 324 municipalities receive police services from the OPP's Municipal Policing Bureau. Information related to population and land area has been compiled based on the most recent census data (2011), and is summarized below and in Appendix 1, with the full list of Municipalities provided in Appendix 2. Table 1: OPP-Serviced Municipalities — Statistics based on the 2011 Census Average Median Largest Smallest Population 6,541 3,731 73,214 0 Land Area (km2) 386 299 3,083 2 These municipalities are serviced from a combination of OPP facilities including: • 77 host detachments • 89 satellite offices • 7 headquarters (5 regional, one divisional, and one general) As such, there is an average of 1 detachment/satellite office for every 2 municipalities receiving the service. Moratorium on OPP Municipal Policinq Contracts Since October of 2013, the Ministry of Community Safety and Corrective Services (MCSCS) and the OPP have suspended the negotiation of contracts for municipal policing services beyond the December 2014 timeframe pending the conclusion of the OPP billing model review (the Review). This Review is intended to address the expressed concerns of municipalities and recommendations made by the Auditor General in the 2012 Audit. The intent of any change is to work towards the recovery of municipal policing costs in a way that is clear, fair and consistent for all who use OPP services. The Review has included municipal engagement sessions in 2013, as well as an OPP Working Group consisting of several Provincial ministries, the AMO, and the Associations of Police Services Boards. The AMO also convened a steering committee to provide input on the process, with a final report released from that Committee in April of 2014. Further detail on the process can be found on the OPP's website at: http://www.opp.ca/ecros/index.php?id=594 At the time of finalizing this report. the MCSCS announced the establishment of a new billing model which will be utilized beginning January 1, 2015. Given the timing of this 2 CSD 74-2014 September 3, 2014 announcement, Regional staff will be preparing a memorandum to Corporate Service Committee to be circulated as part of the addendum for the September 3f0 committee cycle with details of the new model. Update to the Comparison of Policing Costs by Municipality Included within CSD 24-2006 was an excerpt from the data compiled annually by BMA Management Consulting Inc. that compared the cost of policing by municipality. An updated comparison has been included as Appendix 3 to this report based on the 2013 annual municipal study prepared by BMA. The 2013 BMA study segregates municipalities by population size, and can be summarized as follows: Table 2: Avera.e Police Cost per Capita (per 2013 BMA Stud ) Average Police Average Police Total Population Operating Cost per Operating Cost Per Capita Capita* <15,000 $209 ( $210 15,000 — 29,999 $239 $243 30,000 — 99,999 $289 $296 >100,000 $307 $318 Region (Upper Tier) $229 $237 * Total operating cost includes amortization and financing costs. The smaller sized municipalities (up to 29,999 residents) are predominantly serviced by the OPP, versus the communities larger than 30,000 residents which are mostly serviced by municipal forces. The comparable cost for the Niagara Region Police Service amounts to $299 per capita for operating cost, and $313 per capita for total cost'. As noted in CSD 24-2006, as well as in the annual BMA Study, Police costs will vary significantly between municipalities based on a number of factors including, but not limited to: • Geographic &demographic considerations (urban/rural, social, economic, etc.) • Service levels & specialized services • Daily inflow/outflow of commuters, tourists, etc. • Specialized facilities (casinos, border protection) Based on the Region's Financial Information Return to the Ministry of Municipal Affairs & Housing. 3 CSD 74-2014 September 3, 2014 It should also be noted that the cost for other municipalities included in the BMA comparison may change materially going forward once the aforementioned OPP billing model review process is finalized. Update to the OPP Cost Alternative Analysis (CSD 24-2006) Report CSD 24-2006 presented a preliminary estimate of $28.7 million in disbandment/transition costs that could be involved in a conversion to OPP-provided policing services, based on input provided by the Police Services Board. In providing that figure, it was noted that additional costs for capital assets, facilities, and equipment may also be required at the request of the OPP. Utilizing the same framework, the estimate from 2006 has been updated in consultation with NRPS staff as follows: Severance/Loss of Status Payments to NRPS Members > Senior Uniform members $3.0 million > Senior Civilian members $3.0 million > Civilian members $23.5 million Subtotal $29.6 million Banks (Approximate Cost of Paying Out Accumulated Time Banks) > Sick bank payout (net of reserve) $5.2 million > Annual leave payout $2.8 million • Other Time banks (e.g. Float, Special Leave) $2.5 million Subtotal $ 10.5 million Equipment, Training &Legal Expenses > Replace firearms $0.9 million > OPP Training $2.2 million > OPP Uniforms $1.1 million Subtotal $4.1 million > Legal Costs (of negotiating severance packages and $0.8 million participating in OCCPS disbandment hearing) Preliminary Total (excluding capital) $45.0 million As summarized above, when updated from 2006 to 2014 the $28.7 translates to $45.0 million. As in 2006, this total is preliminary and does not include additional costs that may be required for facilities, equipment and vehicles. It also excludes the costs related to a joint implementation team. These additional amounts could be significant. Vehicles, for example, could total approximately $12 million should replacement of the fleet be required. 4 CSD 74-2014 September 3, 2014 A comparison of the 2006 to 2014 figures is provided in Appendix 4. The largest difference between the figures relates to the cost of severances as a result of the changes that have occurred in the length of service and salary since 2006. The process to undertake a detailed cost assessment, including several important considerations previously noted by the OPP, is outlined in report CSD 167-2005.

To fulfill this mandate, each municipality and police agency creates and implements strategies, policies and business models that meet the specific needs and priorities of their local communities. The key objectives provided by Police Services include: • Crime prevention • Law enforcement • Victims' assistance • Maintenance of public order • Emergency response services Each municipality's results are influenced to varying degrees by a number of factors,including: • Non-residents: daily inflow and outflow of commuters and tourists, attendees at cultural, entertainment and sporting events, or seasonal residents (e.g. post-secondary students) who require police services and are not captured in population-based measures • Specialized facilities: airports,casinos, etc.that can require additional policing • Demographic trends: social and economic changes in the population Police costs will vary significantly based on a number of factors including, but not limited to: • Geographic mix(urban/rural mix) • One-time special events • Proximity and quantity of higher risk facilities(e.g.correctional, mental health facilities) • Service levels • Incident of more complex crimes • Specialized services(e.g. Emergency Task Force, Emergency Measures, Marine Unit,etc.) • Accounting and reporting practices Revenue&Expenditure Analysis&MPMPs 140 BMA 11 .

W m Q CL DECEIVED John and Hilary Ainslie, OCT 2 1 2014 6476 Huggins Street, Unit 41, OFFICE OF Niagara Falls, ON L2J 1G9 Ken Todd, 1 THE ADMINISTRATOR October 14, 2014 Chief Administrative Officer, City of Niagara Falls, Dear Ken, I write regarding the disposition of a property at 6915 Lundy's Lane that I have owned since 1958 on the north-west corner of Lundy's Lane and Dorchester Road in the City ofNiagara Falls. As you will see on the accompanying map,this property, now owned jointly by my wife and myself, is slated to become a right turn lane from Dorchester Road onto the Regional Road ofLundy's Lane. When you see the traffic backed up from the lights at this intersection in every direction, one realizes it is long overdue. This project was to have been started in 2008, but due to the objections of a few residents, and a Regional Councillor who lived nearby who didn't wish any trees removed, it was postponed until an indefinite time in the future. The future, in that I am now over 81 years of age and long since retired, has, for us, already come. The last tenant we had, now over 70, has already left, leaving the premises empty and therefore with no rent coming in. With the fact that the building has to be demolished to make room for the right turn lane to be constructed,the building is obviously unrentable and unsaleable, as you will read below. We realize that with the building being on such a prime location at one of the busiest intersections in the city, it is not surprising that the Municipal Property Assessment Corporation assessed its value at$363,000 back on January 1, 2012. In the meantime, with the phased in assessed value of$327,000 for 2014, and jumping $18,000 per year in each of the following years, as seen in the accompanying notice from the MPAC, our city taxes have grown to over$11,000 per year. Such taxes, along with the expenses of upkeep, have for the past several years been greater than the rental income could ever cover. We have had to pay the difference out of our Old Age pensions! Now, with no rent coming in, the taxes and upkeep eat up the entire Old Age pensions of both my wife and myself! You can see the problem, a problem we know the City Council can help us with, in conjunction with the Niagara Region, which has indicated they will share the cost. Already, we have had to borrow money three times this year, from our line of credit against our townhouse, in order to pay the bills. And with the final quarterly tax bill corning October 30th, we will have to do so again! We don't wish to lose our home! >>> over >>> We have met with Councillors from both the City and the Region and, without exception, all have seen that we are in an untenable situation and realize we must be helped sooner rather than later. The Mayor seemed very supportive when we met with him at City Hall. It was therefore with shock that a call came from the Mayor's office just days ago advising us that nothing is slated to be done for at least 10 years, (I would be 91 years old!), and that we should therefore put the property on the market for sale or rent! As you will read below,this is completely unrealistic. And,by the way, such decisions should never be made by the financial or planning departments, (the latter advising me this year of the 10 year wait), but by our elected representatives! Here are the reasons the building cannot be sold or rented, as the message relayed by Cathy Crabbe of the Mayor's office suggested. Once the Johnny Rocco's restaurant opened across the street, parking became restricted on Dorchester Road and we had to put in a four car parking lot to accommodate those working in the building as well as the patients. With four staff in the front office, there was no parking left for any staff or clients in the back office. This resulted in those renting the back moving out! As the building was used as a dental office, it was divided into small rooms suited to the purpose and having lead lined walls for using X-ray machines that were wall mounted, all of which would require hugely expensive renovations. But there would still be insufficient parking! We were therefore in contact with our Realtor, (who of course would benefit from such a sale), and being an honest fellow whom I have known for many years and knows the property well, he advised us that no one would put money into either buying or renting our property unless he got it at a fire-sale price to gain big money from the city when the turn lane was built. We are not asking for the whole Thorold Stone Road to Lundy's Lane project to go forward now, only that the City and Region purchase our property now. All we desire is a fair compensation from the City and Region as quickly as possible, hopefully before the year is out. To do this, one of the Councillors advised us that we should contact you early so that you could get the matter placed on the agenda of the November meeting. And this we are now asking. We have supported the City promptly with our taxes for over 50 years, so turn about is fair play! Many thanks for your help. Sincerely, John S. Ainslie City Hall 4310 Queen Street P.O.

At our meeting, held on October 21 , 2014, you had an opportunity to outline your desire that the City purchase your property at the corner of Lundy's Lane and Dorchester Road. As you are aware, Lundy's Lane falls under the jurisdiction of the Regional Municipality of Niagara and Dorchester Road falls under the jurisdiction of the City of Niagara Falls. I have since had an opportunity to discuss with staff whether or not there is a need for the City of Niagara Falls to purchase this property, at this time. Staff has advised me that the Environmental Assessment(EA)for this project has expired, due to the fact that it is more than ten (10) years old and, therefore needs to be redone. Also, any reconstruction at the corner of Lundy's Lane and Dorchester Road is more than ten (10) years off and is not currently planned in our 10 Year Capital Forecast. Similarly, Regional staff has confirmed that Lundy's Lane reconstruction is more than ten (10) years off, as well. As this project has no current EA and is not contained in the 10 Year Capital Forecast, staff's position is that the City is not in a position to acquire the property, at this time, and would recommend that you proceed with your efforts to actively market the property. Your correspondence, along with a copy of my response to you, will be placed on the Council Agenda on November 11, 2014. Yours truly, 7 ! 41 / 7' f , Ken Todd KT:kk Chief Administrative Officer Clerks Department Inter-Department Memorandum TO: Mayor James M. Diodati DATE: November 11, 2014 & Members of Council FROM: Dean lorfida City Clerk Ext. 4271 RE: Committee of Adjustment Vacancy Mark Cahill, Committee of Adjustment member, has resigned, leaving a vacancy on the CofA. The Committee has two meetings remaining in the Council term, though the committee continues to sit until the committee appointments are made for the 2015-2018 term. Conceivably, there could be a few meetings in 2015 before the new committee is approved. Despite the few meetings remaining, the CofA would like to see the vacancy filled because it is anticipated that long-time CofA members Chuck Antonio and Jack Collinson will not be returning for next term. Filling the vacancy, will allow someone to get a feel for the committee, with the experienced members present. Of course,the fill-in may not necessarily be reappointed for next term. The General Terms of Reference to Advisory Committees of Council indicates that the filling of vacancies can be decided by: ► not filling the vacancy ► going to the runner up list from the beginning of the Council term ► accepting a recommendation from the advisory committee. No recommendation has been made. The list of applicants from the beginning of the term is below. When the last vote to fill a vacancy occurred in June 2012, the only applicants to receive votes were Joseph Mrozek (2), Damian Frank Franze (1) and John Anstruther (1). Ted Alguire John Anstruther Bill Benson Clarke Bitter John Bonadie Tony Caruso Damian Frank Franze Anna Lee Nicolina Maruca Rudy Mascarin Shane Mitchell Joseph Mrozek Renni Piscitelli Veena Shahani Dr Ken Smith Jeanette Tossounian Staff have prepared ballots, should Council wish to vote to fill the vacancy. RECOMMENDATION: For the Consideration of Council )0113 Working Together to Serve Our Community Clerks Department Inter-Department Memorandum TO: Mayor James M. Diodati DATE: November 11, 2014 & Members of Council FROM: Alex Herlovitch, Director of Planning, Building & Development Dean lorfida, City Clerk RE: Chippawa West Plan of Subdivision - Emergency Access Petition The attached petition has been submitted to City Council to request that the emergency access route between Mann Street and Lyon's Parkway be opened as a permanent street. The request should be referred to staff for a full report as the design, development and interconnection have a long and complicated history. In addition, the road authority for Lyon's Creek Road is the Regional Municipality of Niagara, not the City. The Chippawa West Phase 2 Plan of Subdivision was approved in 1996 and was designed to be developed in stages. Due to servicing constraints and rates of housing absorption, development was postponed. In 2004, the developer began discussions to revise the plan of subdivision. During the review process, the design and street pattern were hot topics of discussion among the public, agencies and the developer. Planning Staff Report PD-2006- 24 recommended approval of the plan of subdivision and noted that "Block 368 at the northwest is required for emergency access for this plan ...". Following various presentations made by residents of Willoughby Drive, Lyon's Parkway, Lyon's Creek Road, Nassau Street and Willick Road, a motion to approve the report with conditions was defeated. With the application denied, the developer appealed Council's decision to the Ontario Municipal Board (OMB). The OMB approved the plan of subdivision on October 26, 2006 based on submissions by the developer and two area residents. The OMB approved the plan of subdivision with the condition that: "The developer dedicate Block 368 to the City as an emergency access for this development and Lyon's Parkway. This access shall be required at least until there is a street connection to Willick Road. If it is determined that Block 368 is no longer required in the future for access or intersection alterations, this land shall be returned to the developer." Working Together to Serve Our Community Before Council takes a position on the request contained in the petition, members should: • have regard for the Board order, which provides that the emergency access route is to be reviewed after there is a connection to Willick Road; • solicit input from those residents who participated in the OMB hearing; • involve the developer in the discussions, as they still own Block 368; • consult with the Region as to whether there would be any impact on the intersection Lyon's Creek Road and Lyon's Parkway; • obtain the input of the Niagara Falls Fire Services Department and other EMS agencies; • receive comments from the City's Municipal Works, Planning and Recreation/Parks departments; and • send notification to those who participated in the Council debate, which resulted in the 2006 denial, as they may be opposed to the opening of the emergency access and have not been involved in the recent discussions/communications. RECOMMENDATION: That the matter be referred to staff for a report and that public notice be provided, akin to the Planning Act.

This is a demand for safe and adequate access to the Lyons Creek Community. For too long we have been chained into our community so as to appease individuals who are of the impression that this new community infringes on the lifestyle they had prior to its development. i Our community is being held at ransom and our safety placed at risk, simply to appease the selfish desires of a few. We are TAX paying residents that demand expeditious action to address the concerns and requests made in this petition signed by Sixty-Nine (69) residents of the New Lyons Creek AND residents on Nassau & Sutherland (Hunters Creek). Please acknowledge receipt and next actions. Submitted by the concerned residents of Lyons Creek 2 TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN: As residents of the new Lyons Creek community in Chippawa it has come to our attention that there may be a proposal to have the roadway between Mann Street and Lyons Creek Parkway (which accesses Lyons Creek Road) permanently closed off. Lyons Creek community was given approval by the Ontario Municipal Board on the premise that there are at least two accesses to the community. To date there is only one usable access: Mann Street & Sodom Road. The 2nd access which was added to gain the OMB's approval at Mann Street and Lyons Creek Parkway has been chained off and labeled an "emergency access" only. The excuses provided as to why this road is not opened up as a 2nd access road do not make sense. We have been told that the access is too close to the bridge and is a visual hazard to motorists and the increased traffic would increase the hazard. This is a red herring. The intersection of Oakwood and Montrose (for example) is at least twice as close to the bridge, much busier and poses greater visibility challenges. The closure of this road causes safety and environmental concerns for the following reasons: 1. It is labeled as an emergency access however no emergency vehicles are able to get through in a timely fashion in case of an emergency. It would take time to cut down or unlock the chain fence which given the delay in response time could be a matter of life or death for someone in our community. 2. Some of our children catch their school bus on Lyons Creek Parkway and if closed this inhibits them from getting to their bus. 3. By having this access chained this road cannot be maintained in the winter which amplifies the safety concerns in the above two points. 4. By forcing all residents to drive an additional 1-2 kms twice a day needlessly increases emissions produced by these vehicles straining the environment. We also believe that opening up this 2nd access for this community as soon as possible would ease the increased traffic pressure on Sodom Road. Concerns about the speeding, lack of pedestrian ways, and the bottle neck at Sodom and Lyons Creek Road have already been raised. As well, complaints from another community off Sodom Road about individuals driving through that community in order to bypass the bottleneck have been raised. Simply open the road and this will remove much of this pressure! We live in a community that is all but exiled in Niagara Falls. There is no seamless connectivity to anywhere. We understand that the City council had denied the development of this community, however the denial was overturned by the Ontario Municipal Board as the project presented by the developer was solid and contributes greatly to the development of Niagara Falls. It is not difficult to feel that the indifference being shown to this is a result of the unwelcome circumstances in which it has come to being. However the fact is this Lyons Creek Community exists and it consists of TAX PAYING home owners who have as much rights to the basic considerations afforded to all. We, the home owners and our families cannot continue to expose ourselves and loved ones to the hazard that the lack of adequate access poses and suffer the indignity of being barricaded and segregated simply because we bought into this community. We respectfully submit this Petition to have the access road between Mann Street and Lyons Creek Parkway opened up permanently for the reasons submitted above. 1. -). .Y.:L. 3. .L. . -• ---44 -1 ,. • ,---,- ‘... , 4. ...

RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that: 1) the Chippawa West Phase H Plan of Subdivision be draft approved subject to the conditions in the attached Appendix; 2) 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) draft approval be given for three years, after which approval will lapse unless an extension is requested by the developer and, subject to review,granted by Council; and 4) the application to amend the Zoning By-law be approved as detailed in this report to provide the necessary land use regulations to guide the development of the subdivision. BACKGROUND: Proposal The applicant proposes to develop a 43.336 hectare (107.082 acre) site for a residential plan of subdivision containing a mix of dwelling types and a total of 626 units. The property is located on the west side of Sodom Road, north side of Willick Road and southeast of Lyon's Parkway and Lyon's Creek Road(see Schedule 1). The north section of the property was granted draft plan approval in 1996 which is proposed to be modified. A new subdivision application has been submitted for the south portion of the site. The applicant wishes to combine the land into one draft plan of subdivision. Working Together to Serve Our Community Clerks • Finance • Human Resources • Information Systems • Legal • Planning&Development I• March 20,2006 -2 - PD-2006-24 Schedule 2 illustrates the revised subdivision layout. The street pattern provides connections to Sodom Road and Willick Road with emergency access from Lyon's Parkway. The overall subdivision proposes 239 lots for single-detached dwellings, 92 lots(184 units) for semi-detached dwellings, 24 blocks(133 units)for on-street townhouses and a block of land for 70 townhouse condominium units. There are 26 lots designed with frontage onto Willick Road. Additional blocks of land in the plan are proposed for stormwater management,parkland,valley land/floodplain,walkways,emergency access and future development. The site is currently zoned, in part, Residential Mixed (R3), Residential Mixed - HoIding (R3-H), Hazard Land(HL), Open Space(OS) and Neighbourhood Commercial (NC),through Zoning By-law No. 79-200 as amended by site specific By-law No. 96-242. The applicant has requested the zoning of the land be changed to a special Residential Mixed (R3) zone for the single-detached lots, semi- detached lots and on-street townhouse blocks, the Residential Low Density, Grouped Multiple Dwellings(R4) zone for the townhouse condominium block, the Open Space(OS) zone for the park and stormwater management area, the Environmental Protection Area (EPA) zone for the valley land/floodplain and the Development Holding(DH) zone for the future development block. Public Consultation The Planning Act requires that a Public Meeting be held to receive input on subdivision proposals prior to making a decision. Council held the Public Meeting for this plan on June 27, 2005. Several residents spoke at the meeting and letters were submitted. Concerns were raised regarding the number of townhouse units in the plan, lot sizes,density, walkway and emergency access to Lyon's Parkway and traffic in the area. The required Public Meeting for the zoning amendment is satisfied through tonight's meeting and provides another opportunity for public comment. Planning Review Various matters were considered in assessing the proposed plan of subdivision and zoning amendment. Based on this analysis,approval is recommended subject to minor revisions and detailed conditions of approval for the subdivision and with modifications to the requested zoning amendment. The review of the applications is addressed under the following headings. Existing Development Approvals The Region approved a draft plan of subdivision in 1996 for the north portion of the site containing a mix of single-detached,semi-detached and on-street townhouses. This existing plan is designed as an "adult lifestyle" community with a first phase of 216 units. The development consists of small bungalow homes on shallow lots(25 metres/82 feet to 28.5 metres/93.5 feet in depth). The subdivision layout includes passive linear parkland,walkway and emergency access to Lyon's Parkway and a large block of land (south section) that requires a further subdivision application. The overall net density (residential units on only residential land)of this first phase is 25.7 units/hectare(10.4 units/acre). The developer has dedicated a 8.427 hectare(20.8 acre) site containing a high quality woodlot to the City on the north side of Willick Road, east of Ort Road, to satisfy a condition of this existing approval. Several extensions to this draft plan have been granted by Council and staff has granted a temporary extension pending the review of the current applications. Council passed By-law No. 96-242 for the plan that includes site specific R3 zoning regulations for the construction of dwellings on the land. March 20,2006 -3- PD-2006-24 Surrounding Land Uses The subdivision abuts existing single-detached houses and some vacant lots to the northwest on Lyon's Parkway and Lyon's Creek Road. There are single-detached dwellings,a stormwater management pond and restaurant located to the north. Several homes exist along both sides of Sodom Road in this area. A new townhouse project is located at Sodom Road and Weinbrenner Road. The Chippawa Arena and undeveloped land for future residential use are on the east side of Sodom Road. There is a cemetery on the north side of Willick Road and large lots on private services(within the Urban Area Boundary) on the south side of this street. A municipally-owned woodlot is located to the southwest. Official Plan The City's Official Plan designates the majority of the property Residential which permits a variety of housing forms. The floodplain of the Hunter Drain watercourse on the north and east part of the site is designated Environmental Protection Area. A compatible mix of dwelling types, lot sizes and densities is promoted by the Official Plan to provide a full range of housing opportunities and potential affordable housing. The large subdivision proposes a community design concept with various residential dwelling types,parkland and natural areas. Single-detached lots and environmental areas are located at the boundaries of the plan abutting existing single-detached uses. The development will be compatible with the existing and future surrounding uses. The proposal is consistent with the Provincial Policy Statement. The Official Plan indicates that the overall net density of residential development is generally limited to 25 units/hectare(10.1 units/acre). Density increases can be considered adjacent major open space features. With revisions proposed by staff, the overall net density of the development will be approximately 25.9 units/hectare (10.5 units/acre). The Official Plan permits on-street and block townhouses to a maximum net density of 50 units/hectare (20.2 units/acre). The net density of the townhouse portions of the plan is calculated at approximately 34.2 units/hectare(13.8 units/acre). The submitted plan is in keeping with these Official Plan policies. Housing Mix Targets The policies of the Official Plan are refined through neighbourhood and community secondary plans to provide guidelines for development. A basic planning principle of such plans is to provide a range of residential housing types for various ages, family sizes and incomes. Typically, secondary plans indicate a target housing mix of 70% single/semi-detached units and 30%multiple residential units. This proposed subdivision provides 67.6% singles/semis and 32.4% on-street and block townhouses which is consistent with the targeted distribution of dwelling types. Servicing Constraints The development of this subdivision will be affected by both market demand and the limited servicing capacity in the Chippawa Community. There are separate sanitary and storm sewer systems in the area, however,many homes have foundation drains connected to the sanitary sewer system. During major rainfalls, stormwater discharges into the sanitary sewer system which has historically resulted in basement flooding and sewer overflows. The City is initiating capital works projects in 2006(Weeping Tile Monitoring and Pollution Control Plant/CSO Abatement Municipal Class EA)to identify problems and needed system improvements. There is existing capacity in the Chippawa system to allow an estimated 129 additional residential units at this time. Municipal Works staff recommend a condition of approval to phase the subdivision in accordance with servicing capacity. ,T March 20, 2006 -4- PD-2006-24 Subdivision Design The developer has undertaken revisions to the plan based on issues identified during the review process. The subdivision proposes a compatible mix of dwelling types and lot sizes for single-detached housing, semi-detached dwellings,on-street townhouses and block/condominium townhouses. The road pattern and lotting represents an efficient use of urban residential land. The townhouse locations in proximity to the open space areas and main roadways are appropriate. The proposed standard lot depth of 33 metres (108.3 feet) is an increase from the existing approved plan and is similar to recent plans approved in the City. The rear yards of single-detached lots abut the rear yards of the homes on Lyon's Parkway. A condition is requested to locate only single-detached lots with access on Streets "1"and "2"to minimize driveways to these collector roads. The size of some on-street townhouse blocks are to be reduced to permit a maximum of 6 units per block as defined in the by-law. Lots fronting onto Willick Road are needed as services will be constructed along this road in the future which will also allow lots on the south side of Willick Road(within the Urban Area Boundary)to connect to municipal services. Block 368 at the northwest is required for emergency access for this plan and secondary access to the Lyon's Parkway cul-de-sac (over 500 metres in length) - this block also allows options for Lyon's Parkway access if intersection changes occur at Lyon's Creek Road. Walkways are provided to the City woodlot and also midway along Lyon's Parkway(Block 366 primarily serves as a stormwater outlet and functions as an additional access). The valley land (Blocks 357 & 358) will be protected and dedicated to the City with the intention of establishing a recreational trail in the area. The cemetery land is to be buffered with the addition of abutting land. The size and location of the park and stormwater area create a large, central open space feature. The plan will be phased depending on servicing capacity and to include a mix of dwelling types and required facilities. A traffic impact study and traffic calming techniques are required. There maybe future parking restrictions on certain streets to ensure adequate fire access. Fencing will be provided abutting all public lands. Sidewalks are required in accordance with standard municipal practice. Zoning Amendment The R3 zone category provides development standards for single-detached and semi-detached lots and on-street townhouse blocks. The request is to modify the existing site specific R3 zoning by-law. Staff recommends that the requested R4 zone standards applicable to the block/condominium townhouse site include a minimum amenity area of 7.5 metres(24.6 feet)at the rear of each townhouse unit. The size of the proposed townhouse block provides various unit layout options. The valley land/floodplain will be in an Environmental Protection Area(EPA)zone. The park block,stormwater management area and several smaller blocks at the entrances to the plan will be zoned Open Space(OS). The Development Holding (DH) zone is a suitable interim zoning category for the future development of land at the southeast of the plan along Sodom Road. The following chart presents information on the R3 zone development standards for singles,semis and on-street townhouses. The City standard by-law provisions,existing"adult lifestyle"plan requirements and the staff recommendations for the current plan are shown. Changes to the typical R3 zoning provisions are illustrated,other standards such as the minimum rear yard setback for all dwelling types is maintained at 7.5 metres (24.6 feet).

These types of zoning standards are evident in the Neighbourhood's of St.Davids plan of subdivision at the north limit of the City. The lot area and lot frontage requirements are being increased for single-detached dwellings in the plan compared to the existing site specific zone and standard R3 zone. A narrower lot and unit design is proposed for semi-detached dwellings and some of the on-street townhouses and the requested zoning changes are minor. The recommended front yard setbacks allow space to park a vehicle in the driveway and permit covered porches. The same interior side yards are proposed for singles and semis regardless of height while on-street townhouses will provide greater side yards. The maximum lot coverage provisions account for the reduction in setbacks and differentiate between singles/semis (50%) and townhouses(60%). These coverage figures represent potential building footprints and actual dwelling coverages will likely be reduced with architectural design features. In accordance with the limited servicing capacity, the development area beyond the first phase will be zoned with a Holding (H) provision. Regional Comments The Regional Planning and Development Department supports the approval of this development. The plan provides a variety of dwelling types and densities with the potential for affordable housing. Regional Public Works request conditions regarding the entrance onto Sodom Road and servicing. Regional Planning also reviewed the subdivision with regard to Provincial policies. Conditions are requested for stormwater management,lot grading,drainage,sedimentation and erosion control plans, as well as an archaeological assessment and confirmation of the cemetery boundary abutting the plan. TT March 20, 2006 -6- PD-2006-24 Agency Comments The Niagara Peninsula Conservation Authority requests conditions relating to the protection of the watercourse fisheries habitat,storrnwater management and floodplain issues. Canada Post advises that the residents will be served by Community Mailboxes and requests typical conditions. In addition,the developer will be required to enter into separate agreements with several utility companies. CONCLUSION: The Chippawa West Phase II Draft Plan of Subdivision is an appropriate development of the site. The design applies contemporary planning principles. The application is consistent with the Provincial Policy Statement and complies with the policies ofthe Official Plan. The recommended Zoning By-law amendment will provide suitable regulations for the construction of the dwellings and also to protect the watercourse. The required conditions of approval are listed in the Appendix.

Myself and many of my neighbors are deeply concerned and opposed to the proposed zoning bylaw amendment application which would allow on-street townhouse blocks, grouped multiple dwellings,and townhouse condominium blocks. The reason for this objection is that we will be connected to this proposed new neighborhood by both an emergency access road(that will be our future and only access road when the east end of Lyons Creek Parkway is cut off from Lyons Creek Rd due to the current unsafe intersection of these two streets)and a walkway leading from the highest density area of the proposed townhouse blocks right into the heart of our existing neighborhood. This would allow an obvious drop in property values, quality of life,security and integrity within our adjoining quiet dead end street.We as a newly built neighborhood did not invest in the average range of$250,000 to$300,000 dollars per house on our street with 60 foot frontages so we could be located right next door to a major townhouse development. Bad enough is the postage stamp sized lots proposed throughout phase II ,,that we also have to live next door to a major townhouse development.Just look at the density numbers and averages that are proposed here and you get the picture of what this area would look like in ten years time. The developer is not just intending on mixing in just a few town houses within this new neighborhood as is commonly done elsewhere.This developer wants to introduce 24 blocks of townhouses which would allow 133 units plus a huge block of 70 townhouse condominiums in one building. I will be quite frank about this proposal. This type of wholesale townhouse development is not the type of quality of life that I or my neighbors want adjoining to the street I or my neighbors live on. From the Townhouse examples found in the past within the boundaries of Chippawa„,„specifically the Willoughby drive area,,,this type of development not only does not work in this area„but it's also is a giant step backwards in the healthy development of a thriving waterfront community. Should this application go any further than this first stage„please let me know of your intentions in case a petition to support this letter needs to be generated. i look forward to your reply.

The report recommends that the Chippawa West Phase II Plan of Subdivision be draft approved subject to the condition in the attached Appendix; and 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;and that draft approval be given for three years, after which approval will lapse unless an extension is requested by the developer and,subject to review, granted by Council; and the application to amend Zoning By-law be approved as detailed in this report to provide the necessary land use regulations to guide the development of the subdivision. The Clerk advised that a public meeting was now being convened to amend the City's By-Zoning By-law to consider Chippawa West Phase II Draft Plan of Subdivision.He advised that Notice was given by First Class mail in accordance with the Planning Act on Monday, February 27, 2006 and to all owners of land within 120 metres of the land and also by posting a sign on the property in question. He informed that anyone wishing to receive notice of the Recommendation Report,Zoning By-law amendment shall leave their name on the sign in sheets outside the Council Chamber. The Deputy Director of Planning and Development reviewed the recommendation and provided the following information. Planning Analysis Official Plan Majority of the property is designated Residential Hunter Drain watercourse is designated Environmental Protection Area(EPA) Mix of dwelling types, lots sizes and densities is promoted by the Official Plan. Subdivision proposed a community design concept with various residential dwelling types, parkland &natural areas. Single detached lots and environmental areas are located at the boundaries of the plan abutting existing single-detached uses. Townhouses&apartments located along collector/arterial roads or with direct access to collector system with proximity to open space areas. Development will be compatible with the existing and future surrounding uses. Proposal is consistent with Provincial Policy Statement. OP indicates the overall net density of residential is 25 un/ha(10.1 un/ac) Development will have overall net density of 25.9 un/ha(10.5 un/ac) OP permits on-street&block townhouses to a max. net density of 50 un/ha. (20.2 un/ac) Development had net density of townhouse portion at 34.3 un/ha(13.8 un/ac). 11 -4- March 20, 2006 Housing Mix Targets Typically,target housing mix of 70%single/semi-detached units&30%multiple residential units. This subdivision provides 67.6% single/semi-detached and 32.4% on-street and block townhouses. Servicing There are separate sanitary and storm sewer systems in the area, however, stormwater discharges into the sanitary sewer system have historically resulted in basement flooding. The City is initiating capital works projects to identify problems and the needed system improvements. There is existing capacity in the system to accommodate an estimated 129 additional residential units. Staff recommend a condition to phase the subdivision in accordance with servicing capacity. Subdivision Design -Draft Plan of Subdivision in 1996 for 216 units. -Overall net density of this 1'phase is 25.7 un/ha. -Applicant wishes to combine all the land into one subdivision plan. -The required public meeting on the subdivision was June 27, 2005. -Subdivision proposes a mix of dwelling types and lot sizes. -Road pattern and lotting represents an efficient use of urban residential land. - Standard lot depth of 33 m. (108.3 ft) is similar to recent plans approved in the City. -Rear yards of single-detached lots abut the rear of detached lots on Lyon's Pkwy. -Size of some on-street townhouse blocks are to be reduced to permit a max.6 un/block. -Block in northwest is required for emergency access for this plan&secondary access to the Lyon's Pkwy Cul-de-sac. -Valley land will be dedicated to the City with intention of establishing a recreational trail in the area. -Cemetery land is to be buffered with the addition of the abutting land. -Park and stormwater area create a large, central open space feature. -Traffic impact study and traffic calming techniques are required. - Fencing and sidewalks are required in accordance with standard municipal practice Zoning Amendment - R3 zone provides development standards for single-detached and semi-detached lots and on-street townhouse blocks. -5- March 20, 2006 -Staff recommends that the requested R4 zone standards applicable to the block include a minimum amenity area of 24.6 ft at the rear of each townhouse unit. -Park block, stormwater management area and small blocks at the entrances to the plan will be zoned Open Space(OS) -Development Holding(DH)zone is a suitable interim category for the land southeast of the plan along Sodom Rd. -The proposed revised zoning standards apply"new urbanism" principles to create a walkable community with homes closer to the street and garages set back. -Lot area and lot frontage requirements are being increased for single-detached dwellings compared to the existing R3 zone. Conclusion -Chippawa West Phase II Draft Plan of Subdivision is an appropriate development of the site. -The design applies contemporary planning principles; -The application is consistent with the Provincial Policy Statement and complies with the policies of the Official Plan; -The recommended Zoning By-law amendment will provide suitable regulations for the construction of the dwellings and also to protect the watercourse. Recommendation It is recommended that: 1. The Chippawa West Phase II Plan of Subdivision be draft approved subject to the conditions in the attached Appendix; 2. 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 or the decision have been lodged; 3. Draft approval be given for three years, after which approval will lapse unless an extension is requested by the developer and,subject to review,granted by Council; and 4. The application to amend the Zoning By-law be approved as detailed in this report to provide the necessary land use regulations to guide the development of the subdivision. Jack Appleton, 10558 Willoughby Drive,was informed that Willick Road would be upgraded in conjunction with this project. Greg Chisholm,4855 Lyons Parkway,questioned the design of the subdivision with its intensification of townhouses.He also expressed concerns of the smaller size of the lots backing onto Lyon's Parkway. Paul Groot, 8909 Nassau Avenue, had some traffic concerns. Mr. Groot was advised that a traffic impact survey is a requirement. Terry O'Reilly,a Chippawa resident,had some concerns of how close the developer would be building to the Willick cemetery. He was advised of the buffers. -6- March 20, 2006 Mike Dill, 4694 Lyons Creek Parkway, expressed his concern with the size of the lots. Mr. Dill indicated that the way this plan is done, he would share his backyard with 2 or 3 people. He also requested a larger map with more detail. Darren Murphy, 4610 Wiilick Road, is currently on a septic system. He was informed that the development of this project would make access to City services possible. Darren Steedman,representing Metrus Development,advised that the staff report was very thorough and agreed with recommendations. The original plan was in 1996,the plan has been updated to reflect changes in the Provincial policy statements.There is an increase of single family dwellings from the original plan also increasing the width of units and extending the depth of lots. He outlined the phasing of the project, the internal intensification done to mitigate affects on neighbouring properties, the housing mix, the centrally located park and that a traffic study will be done, which could lead to other possible entrances into the subdivision.

Ronald K. Webb DECISION DELIVERED BY J. FLINT AND ORDER OF THE BOARD Queensway Chippawa Properties Inc. (the Company) owns a vacant 43.336- hectare property in the former Township of Chippawa, now the City of Niagara Falls (the City). In 1996 a zoning by-law and draft plan of subdivision were approved for the north portion of the property to permit a development of 136 single-detached, 62 semi- detached and 18 residential townhouse units. Nothing has been built to date. The Company would now like to revise the plan of subdivision, and develop the remaining land in a similar fashion.

To these ends, the Company filed a revised plan of subdivision and a new plan of subdivision for the south portion. The Company also applied for a zoning by-law amendment for the entire property. The City of Niactara balls refusea the applications and the Company appealed. LEGAL DEPT. OCT 3 0 2006 ACTION DISCUSS INFO - 2 - PL060322 The subject property is located at the northwest corner of Sodom Road and Wi!lick Road in the southeast region of the urban area of Niagara Falls. To the north is a subdivision of 53 single-detached dwellings developed prior to 1996 by the same to the east along Sodom Road there are scattered residential lots, an arena, company; c a restaurant and cash crop farmland, There are residential lots on the south side of Willick Road. On the west, the subject property abuts the rear yards of residential properties on Lyons Creek Parkway. a "dead end" road that runs south from Lyons Creek Road. Lyons Creek flows between these roads. It is a navigable body of water leading to the 'Weiland River. The subject property contains at least three notable elements: a creek known locally as Hunter's Drain is located near the eastern boundary and across the north part of the property. There is a small heritage cemetery near the mid-point of the WiHick Road frontage and a significant woodlot at the southwest corner of the property. Except for the creek bed, the terrain is generally flat. The subject property is designated Residential and Environmental Protection Area in the City of Niagara Falls Official Plan and Residential Development Area in the Chippewa Community Secondary Plan. The property is zoned in part Residential Mixed (R3), Residential Mixed-Holding (R3-H), Hazard Land (HL), Open Space (OS) and Neighbourhood Commercial (NC). Mr. Mark D. Yarranton, a qualified land use planner, testified in support of the application. The two participants, Mr. Jim Mancuso and Mr. David Jackman were opposed. The City of Niagara, while party to the hearing, called no witnesses. Mr. Yarranton told the Board that the 53-unit subdivision of single-detached dwellings on land immediately north of the subject property is Phase I of a three-phased development planned by the Company. The 1996 plan for the north portion of the subject property is Phase Il. It contains wide shallow lots to be developed with one and one-half storey dwelling units. The revised plan changes the configuration of the lots. They are now narrower and deeper in order to accommodate single-detached, semi- detached and townhouse dwellings up to two storeys in height. Phase III, that includes most of the balance of the property, provides for a mix of housing types and contains a centrally located park and storm water management pond, a pedestrian link to Lyons Creek Parkway, and network of local and collector roads that that are coordinated with - 3 - PL060322 those of Phase II. There is also an emergency-only access to the subdivision from the north end of Lyons Creek Parkway. The heritage cemetery, the woodlot and the park and storm water management area are proposed to be deeded to the City and zoned Open Space (OS). The environmentally sensitive land in the vicinity of Hunter's Drain is to be zoned Environmental Protection Area (EPA), and the majority of the land will be developed with a mix of housing types. The Company will also develop a walking trail near the creek. A portion of land between the creek and Sodom Road in the southeast corner of the property, and another portion near the EPA zone at the northeast will not be developed at this time. Zoning for those parcels is Development Holding (DH). Mr. Yarranton noted that housing types within the subdivision have been located so that single-detached units are on the perimeter, semi-detached units are located throughout, and townhouses are located internally near the park. Storm water flows are directed westward from the pond towards Lyons Creek through a channel beside the pedestrian walkway. Approximately one-third of the run off will be accommodated in this fashion. The remainder of the storm water run off will drain via Hunters Creek. Over the course of a day, Mr. Yarranton provided detailed planning evidence in support of the application. His testimony and opinion that the application conforms to the Provincial Policy Statement and both the Niagara Region and City of Niagara Falls Official Plans was unchallenged and uncontradicted. He noted in particular that the EPA zone is consistent with Conservation Authority standards and, except for a pedestrian trail, is to be left in a naturalized state. All agencies support the application. However the City Engineering Department reports that at this time there is sewer capacity for only 129 new residential units. The Company plans to build them at the north end of the property. Development of the remaining units is subject to a holding provision. Mr. Yarranton also reviewed the proposed plan of subdivision against the fourteen criteria of section 51(24) of the Planning Act that regulates land divisions. In his opinion, the application subject to the revised conditions entered as Exhibit 9, meets all relevant criteria and represents good planning. - 4 - PL060322 Both participants live on Lyons Creek Parkway and their properties back onto the proposed Phase Ill plan. Their primary concern is water management, followed closely by fears that their road will be closed to Lyons Creek Road. Their residential lots are wider than those proposed to be located behind them and they do not like the prospects of having two or three lots directly behind them, each containing a two-storey dwelling. They prefer the new houses be set further away from their houses and/or a berm or green belt established as a buffer. They also regret the loss of the natural ambience and wild life, and worry about the effects of development on the woodlot. HowA/P�/pr, storm orator manarPmPnt is the most nrPssinn iSSuo for them hor:allse several property owners on Lyons Creek Parkway have experienced flooding and damage to their homes. The participants maintained that the existing drainage system on their street is inadequate for the amount of storm water that is generated and their sump pumps are running twenty-four hours a day. There is strong objection to any development that will exacerbate this situation. The Board finds it understandable that there should be an outcry from residents who are faced with a development where a walkway into their quiet "dead end" residential community could be used by motorized vehicles, where their local road connection to the main highway is closed, the nearby woodlot that they enjoy is threatened, and their back yard privacy is reduced; and, worst of all, there is "no guarantee" that their existing year-round flooding and drainage problems will not be made worse The Board finds, however, that during the course of the hearing these issues were addressed. Solutions were presented and positively received. For example, it was the evidence of Mr. Yarranton that the Site Plan will include mechanisms to prevent motorized vehicles from using the walkway and also insure that the widest lots in the subdivision back onto the Lyons Creek Parkway properties. The closure of Lyons Creek Parkway is not part of the application. The woodlot, that is highly valued for its quality and ambience, will be deeded to the City for maintenance and protection. Only a nature trail designed to Conservation Authority standards will be permitted in the EPA zone. Moreover, the number of residential units built at any one time will be determined by sewer capacity; and the entire project is subject to Site Plan Control where traffic safety is addressed. - 5 - PL060322 The Board finds that the serious and sometimes dangerous flooding and inadequate drainage situation on Lyons Creek Parkway that was reported by residents, already exists and cannot be attributed to the proposed subdivision. Prior to development, the City requires engineering studies and water management plans for the subdivision to insure that storm water will be managed on site and will not add to the problems experienced by Lyons Creek Parkway residents. The Board notes that the City has acknowledged that there is a flooding problem in the Lyons Creek Parkway neighbourhood and has commissioned a study, that includes citizen input, to find a solution and ways to implement it. This news was welcomed by the participants. As reviewed by Mr. Yarranton, the applicable planning instruments governing residential development in Ontario municipalities include the Provincial Policy Statement, Provincial Places to Grow legislation and Official Plans. The Provincial Policy Statement mandates the efficient use of land, services and infrastructure; the Places to Grow policies direct residential intensification to settlement areas in order to protect agricultural land; and Official Plans designate lands for specific uses, in this case, residential and environmental protection. Based on the unchallenged professional opinion of the planner, the Board finds that this application conforms to all three. The Board also finds that the concerns raised by the participants can be addressed by Site Plan Control, the Zoning By-law and, in the case of flooding on Lyons Creek Parkway, by the City in response to an independent study. The Board, therefore, allows the appeal. The City of Niagara Falls is directed to amend By-law 96-242 as set out in Attachment 1 . The Draft Plan of Subdivision hereby attached as Attachment 2 is approved subject to the conditions entered as Exhibit 9 and hereby attached as Attachment 3. The Board so Orders. "J. Flint" J.

(Submitted photo) NIAGARA FALLS - Jason Rhodes has returned home from the trip of a lifetime, raising more than $7,000 for charity, seeing everything the country has to offer and meeting dozens of new people along the way. The 18-year-old Niagara Falls resident recently spent 81 days riding his bike from Victoria, B.C. To St. John's, Nfld., in support of Wellspring Niagara, a locally based agency that provides cancer patients and their families with various types of support. The St. Paul Catholic High School graduate got off to a difficult start though — as he ended up with food poisoning only three days into his adventure. He had to take it slow at first, but once the virus made its way out of his system — he had no problem kicking it into high gear and continuing his trek, which he titled the Coast to Coast Rhode Trip. "It took me a solid four or five days to regain energy," said Rhodes when meeting with Bullet News Niagara on http://bulletnewsniagara.ca/index.php?p=Sections&id=2085 1/4 11/5/2014 Falls resident rides across Canada-Bullet News Niagara I Niagara Falls,Welland,Thorold,St Catharines,Fort Erie Friday. "I'm kind of glad one of the biggest challenges was at the beginning of the trip," he added. www:al floor n canada.com Travelling across mountainous terrain for most of the first half of the trip was a major challenge, especially since preparing for the high-altitude points of the ride is something he couldn't really do while in Niagara, before he embarked on his mission. "You just can't train for it in this area," he said. Entering Saskatchewan, the flat terrain to most would seem like a less difficult stretch of the trip — but riding against strong winds definitely had an impact. "The headwinds were very, very bad," said Rhodes. In 2010, Rhodes' mother was diagnosed with breast cancer and their family started using the programs and services provided by Wellspring Niagara — so it was an easy decision to select the organization as the benefactor of his mission. "It's my way of giving back to them," he said. Raising a total of $7,550 to date is certainly rewarding and he considers it the most important reason he decided to take the ride — but it's also about setting personal goals and gaining life experience. "You learn so much — not only about yourself— but about the country," said Rhodes. http://bul I etnewsni agara.ca/i ndex.php?p=Sections&i d=2085 2/4 11/5/2014 Falls resident rides across Canada-Bullet News Niagara i Niagara Falls,Welland,Thorold,St Catharines,Fort Erie The Niagara College student also said hospitality of the many people he met along the way was incredible and something he will cherish for the rest of his life. Whether it was someone paying for a meal, putting him up for a night in their home or even a simple honk of a horn from passing motorists — he said it went a long way and kept him motivated. "That's what helped me get through some of those rough days," said Rhodes. While in Laval, Que., Rhodes was able to meet up with Niagara Falls boxer Mike Strange — who was in the middle of his BoxRun, also a journey across Canada. "That was really awesome and it was totally unexpected," he said. Strange's dedication to his cause and their brief time with one another was a huge inspiration for Rhodes, as he pointed out the day after they were together— he rode 175 kms in one shot. "He just sheds inspiration. I had a lot of energy and it was probably from meeting him," said Rhodes. His bike weighs about 25 pounds and his essentials like food, his tent and other items added another 30 to 40 pounds. Before the trip, he went on a few practice runs — one from Niagara Falls to Fort Erie along the Niagara Parkway and the other from Niagara Falls to Oakville, which he said was helpful. "It's all about adapting once you're out there — you just have to go with the flow," he said. Rhodes also has a Facebook page he used to document his travels.

SCHEDULE "B" to By-law No. Description of Property — Oswald House, 2922 St. Paul Avenue The Oswald House is located on the northeast corner of St. Paul Avenue and Church's Lane. Built circa 1845, the house is an excellent example of a Regency style cottage, and retains most of its original components. It holds a prominent position on the street corner bordered on two sides by a stone wall with iron fence. Statement of Cultural Heritage Value or Interest James Oswald was an American-born businessman who, along with his brother, owned the Stamford Springs Brewery in nearby St. David's. It was one of two breweries in operation in Niagara Falls at the time; both were said to have been the largest industries in the city during this period. The Stamford Springs Brewery was built in 1836 by John H. Sleeman, a renowned brewer throughout Upper Canada. Sleeman sold the brewery to Mr. I.A. Hatt, who later sold it to Mr. Oswald. By 1876, the operation spanned seven buildings, indicating the business' growth and success. When the brewery closed in 1918, it was converted to a dance hall and also a spring water bottling works. Oswald also owned the Whirlpool Inn, another designated property in the City of Niagara Falls, for nearly 30 years. In addition to his own business operations, Oswald was also a business partner of Samuel Zimmerman, another very prominent businessman in the area. Attributed as the founder of the Town of Clifton, Zimmerman enlisted Oswald and other contractors to aid in the reconstruction of the Welland Canal, the Grand Trunk railway, and several other business ventures throughout the Niagara area. The James Oswald House is one and a half storey dwelling with a symmetrical five bay façade. Built in a rectangular form, the exterior of the house is stucco with a rubble stone foundation. The house has a low pitched gable roof clad in fibre glass shingles, with a small shed dormer facing the west (front). The dormer, which contains a horizontal window opening, is a later addition to the house, built sometime after 1927. Two large inset chimneys are located approximately a quarter of the roof length in from the gable ends. The west (front) facade features a central door and two sets of French doors on either side. Photographs taken in the early 20th century show louvered shutters on either side of these French doors, but they have since been removed. The central doorcase features the original six panel door flanked by 4 paned sidelights and pilasters on either side. The house features a broad veranda, characteristic of the Regency style, along the west (front) and south facades of the house. The verandah once extended along a portion of the rear facade, but has now been filled in and forms part of the interior living space. The veranda has a bell cast roof supported by wooden trellis, known as "Stamford Treillage". The treillage consists of two posts with diamond pattern lattice between. Each treillage is interconnected with an elliptical wood arch which springs from a small wood corbel. In the spandrel of the arch is an open fan like pattern in wood. The upper level of the house features two windows on either gable end that have had the original 6 over 6 windows restored. On the south façade, beneath the veranda, are two more French doors. A stone wall with iron fence borders the property on two sides. The iron work, completely restored in 2011/2012, is said to have been brought to Canada from England and may have been added later, circa 1860. The fence is made of cast iron, in a scroll work pattern and is mortised to the stone caps with lead. The stone wall is comprised of rubble stone with cut stone caps. Caps of two different widths are present. Those on the east/west section (Church's Lane) are wider than those used on the north/south (St. Paul Ave) section. At some time, one wider cap, salvaged from a demolished part of the east/west section of the wall was used to replace a cap in the north/south section suggesting that the wall was damaged and repaired at some time. The fence features a gate in the centre of the fence along the west side. Prior to the extensive restoration work completed in 2006, the house had several small additions at the rear of the house. These additions were removed in favour of one large addition to the rear of the house including a garage. Description of Heritage Attributes Key exterior features that embody the heritage value and are important to the preservation of 2922 St. Paul Avenue include the following heritage attributes: • one and a half storey dwelling with a symmetrical five bay façade • stucco exterior with a rubble stone foundation • low pitched gable roof clad in asphalt shingles • two large inset chimneys • central door features the original six panel door flanked by 4 paned sidelights and pilasters • two sets of French doors on either side of central door with another two sets on the south elevation (six sets total) • broad veranda along the west (front) and south facades of the house featuring a bell cast roof supported by a wooden trellis, known as "Stamford Treillage" • treillage consists of 2 posts with diamond pattern lattice with interconnected elliptical wood arches springing from a wood corbel • two 6 over 6 sash on either gable end • stone wall with iron fence bordering the property on two sides; made of cast iron, in a scroll work pattern and is mortised to the stone caps with lead • owned by James Oswald, a prominent business man in the Niagara area, owner of one of the most profitable industries of his time, and business partner to Samuel Zimmerman, founder of the Town of Clifton • proximity to Portage Road and on the corner of two historic streets in the former Township of Stamford CITY OF NIAGARA FALLS By-law No. 2014- A by-law to amend By-law No. 95-255, being a by-law to designate 3174 St. Patrick Avenue, known as the Russell Cottage, to be of cultural heritage value and significance.

SCHEDULE "B" to By-law No. Description of Property — Russell Cottage, 3174 St. Patrick Avenue Russell Cottage is located at the corner of Brock Street and St. Patrick Avenue, near the designated Stamford Green. The one storey dwelling is characterized by its large front verandah with diamond-patterned Stamford treillage. Statement of Cultural Heritage Value or Interest Erected circa 1830, Russell Cottage dates to the earliest settlement of the former Township of Stamford. Built on land of the original 1805 Crown patent to the Stamford Presbyterian Church, early owners of the home included Rheddy Cusack and Andrew Rorback who may have been responsible for its construction. Andrew Rorback came to Canada from New Jersey about 1799. He was a store keeper and conducted a saddlery business. He was adjunct of the Second Regiment of the Lincoln Militia in 1813 -14, and in 1837 -38 commanded the Regiment with the rank of Lieutenant Colonel. Matthew Ottley, the third owner of the home is attributed with the changes which provide much of its current form. Several other prominent members of the community have resided in the dwelling including Grace Russell, the widow of the first minister of the Presbyterian Church of Stamford. Grace Russell would have retained her high social standing in the community because of the very important role the church played in the settlement of the Stamford area. Following her ownership, the house became known as the "Russell Cottage ". The house is a simple ell-shaped one-storey dwelling, built in the local Regency vernacular style. Blending details from early styles of 19th century architecture, the house was constructed in two distinct phases. The first phase of the house predates 1830 and forms the south extent of the current house. This portion sits on a mortared stone foundation and exhibits early construction techniques such as the use of logs for floor joists and roof rafters. The second phase of the dwelling was erected circa 1830-35, and utilized sawn lumber with plaster walls on split accordion lath. It was constructed on the north side, perpendicular to the original house, with its gable end facing St. Patrick Avenue. The house features an asymmetrical four bay façade, whose informal arrangement of openings adds to the picturesque qualities of the dwelling. The front entrance is positioned under the northwest gable end, and contains a modern four panel door with an elliptical window pane. A large verandah extends across the west (front) façade, and is the dominant architectural feature of the building, characteristic of the Regency style. The verandah features a rare example of early porch joinery. The verandah has a bell cast roof supported by wooden trellis, termed by Anthony Adamson and Marion McRae in the book the Ancestral Roof as "Stamford Treillage" The trellis consists of two posts with diamond pattern lattice between. Each trellis is interconnected with an elliptical wood arch which springs from a small wood corbel. In the spandrel of the arch is an open, fan-like pattern in wood. Window openings on the west (front), north and east (rear) façades of the early phases of the house retain the original 6 over 6 window sash with plain trim. Vinyl siding and aluminium soffit and fascia have been applied over the original clapboard siding and wood eaves. The gable roofs feature eave returns characteristic of the Classical revival style and asphalt shingles. Modern additions are located to the rear of the original structures.

SCHEDULE "B" to By-law No. 2014- Description of Property —Alexander-Robinson House, 3289 St. Paul Avenue The Alexander-Robinson House is located near the junction of St. Paul Avenue and Portage Road, opposite Stamford Green. The large storey and a half house, the central portion which dates to c. 1821 has a distinctive roof arrangement due to wings being added to either end of the central portion of the house. Statement of Cultural Heritage Value or Interest Historical/Associative Value As one of the first storekeepers in the former Township of Stamford, Hugh Alexander was a merchant and magnate by trade. Born in 1780, Alexander first came to the area in 1782 with Thomas McMicking. In 1811-12 he first began operating a shop and sailing vessel out of Fort Erie, and proceeded to open an additional store in Stamford circa 1813. There, he sold dry goods along the historic portage road that connected Queenston to Chippawa. In 1813, Alexander joined the 3rd Lincoln militia as a lieutenant. In addition to being captured in Albany for his ties with the United Empire Loyalists, his vessel was captured by the enemy, his home and shop in Fort Erie were destroyed, and his store in Stamford was looted. After re-establishing his businesses, Alexander died in November 1817 and was buried in the Stamford Presbyterian cemetery. After his death, Alexander's widow, Susannah Alexander, had signed a lease for two and a half acres of land from the Trustees of the Stamford Presbyterian Church. The church, in an effort to gain revenue and to stimulate growth in the area, required that all lessees build on their land within two years of signing. As Susannah's lease was signed in 1819, the building was then believed to have been built circa 1821. In George Seibel's book The Niagara Portage Road: 200 Years, further evidence is found that suggests the centre portion of the Alexander-Robinson house was the store that Hugh owned and operated in his lifetime. This suggests that the building may have actually been built circa 1813. The property's original two and a half acres of land were divided and sold in the 20th century. The house is located on an approximate 4,940 sq. ft. (1,510 sq. m.) lot. From 1913 to 1995, the house belonged to the Robinson family, from which it derives its name, and continues as a dwelling. Design/Physical Value The Alexander-Robinson House is a storey and a half, rectangular post and beam building with a five bay façade. Although originally finished with clapboard siding, the building's exterior has been covered with white stucco. Evidence of the house's construction suggests that the centre portion of the house was the original structure built on the property while the north and south wings were later additions to the building. During restoration work it was discovered that the oldest portion of the house had log floor joists. The dwelling's most dominant feature is a distinctive roof arrangement, which incorporates three gables across the east (front) façade. Of these, the two end gables are large and dominant, while the centre gable is more a dormer which pierces the original eave. The off-centre position of the main entrance contributes to the asymmetrical arrangement of the east (front) façade. The four-panel front door consists of two upper panels which are glazed. Similarly, the building's fenestration consists of segmental openings with wood surrounds and 2 over 2 sash windows, which contain 19th century glass. The windows feature wood louvered shutters. Before renovations had occurred in the late 1960's, the house featured a hip- roofed verandah. It was supported by several decorative posts consisting of two slim shafts connected at the top and bottom with an arch and base. These posts feature a molding from which brackets extend to support the eave. This provides the building with Italianate style features. The verandah has since been replaced by a gabled portico supported by two Doric order columns. The portico's pediment features a series of dentils, and an applied decorative ornament in its tympanum. Contextual Value The Alexander Robinson house is connected to the development and history of the historic Portage Road. As the home of one of the earliest merchant storekeepers of record in the Township of Stamford, it is a cultural landmark of the area, and is intimately linked to the history of the Stamford village.

SCHEDULE "B" to By-law No. Description of Property — Mitchell Cottage, 3360 St. Patrick Avenue Mitchell Cottage is located at the southeast corner of Russell Street and St. Patrick Avenue, near the designated Stamford Green. As one of the only remaining log structures in the area, the one and a half storey dwelling is an architecturally significant site in the City of Niagara Falls. Before it was amended in 1996, the original by-law designation had included the lands adjacent to the property. The house is now settled on an area of 7,688 sq. ft. (686 sq. m.). Statement of Cultural Heritage Value or Interest Erected circa 1805, Mitchell Cottage dates to the earliest settlement of the former Township of Stamford, and is one of the oldest buildings in the City. The house was built on a part of the 200 acres of land granted to the Stamford Presbyterian Church in the original 1805 Crown patent. The church, in an effort to gain revenue and stimulate growth in the area, proceeded to divide the land and lease properties in perpetuity. The house is believed to have been first owned by John Mitchell, from which it derives its name. Although little is known about Mitchell and his time in Stamford, a documented history of the house's ownership has been carried from 1837 when it was leased to John Hawkins up until its current ownership. Built prior to the War of 1812, it would have originally stood as a modest log cabin. Much of the additions to the structure, including its enlarged size and refined front entrance, are tentatively attributed to Hawkins' residency in the 1840's. The house's most important characteristic is its log cabin understructure, together with the addition of Classical revival features early in the second quarter of the nineteenth century, makes it an architecturally significant structure. It is a one and a half storey dwelling with a medium pitched gable roof with asphalt shingles. The 4 bay façade has an asymmetrical appearance due, in part, to the later addition, different window sizes and the irregular alignment. It rests on a stone foundation. The first storey of the house is covered with a white stucco exterior, while the top half storey is finished with clapboard siding. The north façade contains a typical gable end form, while the south gable end has the rake extending further towards the east. The eaves then extend along the east elevation to the centre of the house, which creates an unusual roof structure. Both gables feature eave returns typical of the Classical revival style of the mid-19th century. Two inset brick chimneys are located on either end of the roof. A shed dormer is centred above the front entrance. It incorporates three double hung sash windows and has clapboard siding. This addition, like the two similar dormers on the east (rear) façade of the building, was constructed in the 20th century, in response to the need for more living space. A long one storey addition was built in 1978 and extends from the east (rear) façade towards the back of the lot. The front entrance is designed in a style known as "Georgian Wilderness". Placed in the centre of the west (front) façade, the opening it features four pilasters with Doric capitals. The six panel door is capped by a detailed architrave and flanked by two recessed 5-light panels. It is the west (front) façade's that contributes to the asymmetrical arrangement of the building. On the left of the west façade is a pair of 6 over 6 sash windows with plain surrounds. In contrast, the right portion of the façade contains a single 12 over 12 sash window with moulded trim. All windows feature pairs of inoperable louvered shutters. The north façade of the building is plain except for two double hung sash windows located on the top half storey. All of the windows were restored in 2003.

SCHEDULE "B" to By-law No. 2014- Description of Property — Old Saint John the Evangelist Anglican Church, 3394-3428 Portage Road. Old St. John the Evangelist Anglican Church is located on the north side of Portage Road, opposite the designated Stamford Green. The church was built in the Gothic Revival style, and features pointed window arches, buttresses, and a stout bell tower. Statement of Cultural Heritage Value or Interest Built in what was originally known as Stamford Township, the Old St. John's Anglican Church is situated along the historic portage road that connected Queenston and Chippawa. The area was colonized by English loyalists, and consisted primarily of orchards and businesses related to the carrying trade. Prior to 1825, the community's Anglican congregation had no place of worship and services were often held in the Stamford Presbyterian Church. However, with the arrival of Lieutenant-Governor Sir Peregrine Maitland in 1822, there was greater incentive for the erection of an Anglican church. The land on which the church was built was donated by Captain R. H. Dee, Esq., and through Maitland's patronage, the building was erected in 1825. St. John's first pastor was Reverend William Leeming, who was a prominent figure within the Anglican Church, and was instrumental in the building of this and two other churches in the City. Serving the Anglican community for a span of five generations, the church congregation moved in 1957 to a newer St. John's Anglican Church. The old building was leased to the Lundy's Lane Historical Society for several years, and as it began to deteriorate, a separate heritage group with the express purpose of restoring the old church was formed. The Old St. John's Stamford Heritage Association Incorporated was established in 1977 as a non-denominational, charitable organization, and completed restoration of the building in 1988. Restoration was completed in accordance with a plan prepared by Baird Sampson Architects. Since 1990, the building is used as a columbarium and museum. The Old St. John's Anglican Church is an early example of the vernacular Gothic Revival style. The one-storey building features a symmetrical, three-bay façade. An entryway that projects forward from the building is likely a later addition and is enclosed by a six paneled double door with a plain trim. The entryway is made of local limestone, with stucco finish. The roof is cedar shake and features a simple gable with eave returns. The gable's fascia boards and eaves exhibit highly decorated molding. Above the front entrance is a shorter pointed arch opening with a 9-light window, also containing interlacing glazing bars. A square date stone is located above the entryway. A trilateral apse is situated at the east end (back) of the church. Three triangular buttresses on the south side were later additions to the building, most likely erected to correct structural problems on the side of the building. Centered over the roof's ridge is relatively short, square tower that is set back slightly from the front façade. Finished with clapboard siding, the tower originally included corner buttresses which have since been replaced with corner boards. It has a plain entablature, four pinnacles, and a short bell cast metal spire. Situated on each side of the tower is a pair of lancet openings, covered by louvers, and containing a small quatrefoil and four colonettes. The building's windows are primarily restored, pointed arch openings with plain sills and simple moulded trim. Each opening contains an 18 over 24 sash window with interlacing glazing bars. As one of the earliest Anglican churches in the province, the Old St. John's Anglican Church is an architectural and culturally significant site with deep rooted connection to several prominent figures in the area. It is intimately connected to the history of the historic Portage Road and to that of Stamford Green. Given the buildings place in the history of the province and the Anglican Church, it is also the subject of an easement held by the Ontario Heritage Trust, only one of two such properties in the City.

SCHEDULE "B" to By-law No. 2014- Description of Property — Glenview Mansion, 4223 Terrace Avenue The Glenview Mansion is located above Terrace Avenue, positioned high above River Road on a large property with mature trees. Although seemingly hidden from the rest of the area, its' imposing size and solid masonry construction is evidence of the wealthy country manor. Statement of Cultural Heritage Value or Interest The Glenview Mansion, built in 1870, was owned by three prominent men in the City's history. John Drew, the builder and first resident of Glenview, was an accomplished mason and contractor whose professional skills and community involvement helped to develop the Town of Clifton/Niagara Falls. The second owner, Dr. John Ferguson, made his fortune constructing railroads, canals and water works for the improvement of the Niagara area. He served as a Member of Parliament for the Welland County (1882-1891) and helped develop tourism near the Whirlpool. During the time he owned Glenview, it became not only a prosperous agricultural estate, but also one of the towns' main social venues hosting the most prominent people of Niagara. The third owner of the home, R. P. Slater, was an influential businessman and developer who served several terms as mayor and who was instrumental in bringing hydroelectric development to Niagara Falls, ushering the City into the twentieth century. Thus, for the first fifty years of its existence, Glenview was at different times a locus of civic, government and industrial power in Niagara Falls. The Glenview Mansion is a remarkable example of Italianate vernacular architecture from the mid-Victorian period. The two-storey detached dwelling features a symmetrical three bay facade. The main section of the building, which includes the front (east) facade, is situated away from the entrance to the property. From this main section, two rectangular tails of decreasing width extend to the west of the site. Currently, the exterior is painted stucco while the foundation is made of rubble stone. From historical photographs, its original exterior of brick is found on many of the decorative elements of the house, including the three-sided projecting bay windows on the front (east) façade, the raised quoins on all exterior corners of the building, and the curved hood moulds over the window and door openings. Brick was also used to construct the three remaining chimneys positioned near the northeast, southeast, and southwest corners of the houses' main section. The building's low pitch hip roof is typical of the Italianate architectural style. It features broad eaves with tongue and groove soffit and a moulded fascia. It is supported by large paired brackets. A small wooden gable with cornices forms the roof of the projecting central bay on the front (east) façade. The gable forms a closed pediment with a deeply recessed tympanum and raking courses of small, regularly spaced brackets which give the building the impression of a Classical dentil course. In the centre of the tympanum is a decorative round window flanked by triangular panes. The roof on the main section terminates in a flat deck, originally supporting a wood frame belvedere. The roof bears several shed dormers that were built for lighting purposes. The front (east) façade contains two of dormers on either side of the pediment, one faces the south and a larger dormer is located on the north. Each dormer contains a horizontal sliding window. The front entrance consists of a modern steel double door, with a large glass panel with a segmental transom. On either side of the entrance is a three-sided projecting bay, each side containing a rectangular 2 over 2 sash window with hood mould. These same window styles are found on the second storey of the façade. In the centre of the second storey are narrow paired windows set with round headed openings with hood moulds. On the south façade, the house's main section features six rectangular window openings with a keystone decoration. Along the extending tails are several more segmental openings, either with a keystone or hood mould used for decoration. Alterations are evident along the north façade, where only one segmental window exists on the upper floor and of the two on the ground floor, one has had the bottom half blocked up and covered with stucco. Originally, the property is said to have contained a number of outbuildings, including a grist mill, stable, and a tennis court to the south of the house. These have disappeared with time and with the subdivision of the original property. A significant change to the façade was the removal of the original mid-Victoria era porch. Located on the front (east) façade, the porch was an open wood structure with a raised deck and side railings. Although still in place in the beginning of the 20th century, it had been replaced with the present overhang by 1955. Another original porch, attached to the midsection of the south wall has survived in situ. It features a sloped roof and four chamfered support posts topped with a curved scroll bracket. Description of Heritage Attributes Key exterior features that embody the heritage value and are important to the preservation of 4223 Terrace Avenue include the following heritage attributes: • Italianate vernacular architecture from the mid-Victorian period • large two storey detached dwelling • rectangular form, with a square main section and two rectangular tails • current stucco exterior and rubble stone foundation • brick was used for many of the decorative elements of the house • three chimneys near the northeast, southeast, and southwest corners • low pitch hip roof, typical of the Italianate architectural style • broad eaves with tongue and groove soffit supported by paired brackets • small wooden gable with raking cornices • closed pediment with recessed tympanum and brackets • shed dormers • modern metal double doors, with glass panels and segmental transom • 2 projecting bays containing 2 over 2 sash windows with hood moulds • the porch on north side has sloped roof, four posts with curved scroll brackets. • connected to several prominent figures in the history of the City of Niagara Falls including John Drew, John Ferguson, and R.

SCHEDULE "B" to By-law No. 2014- Description of Property — Bampfield Hall, 4761 Zimmerman Avenue Bampfield Hall is located on Zimmerman Avenue near the Morrison Street intersection. Its recognizable Gothic attributes are an integral part of the area's unique historical character, which in turn contributes to the wider heritage setting of the City. Statement of Cultural Heritage Value or Interest As one of the most prominent families in the City of Niagara Falls, the Bampfields played a crucial role in the City's economic and commercial development. Having emigrated from Devonshire, England in 1834, they had initially resided in Kingston, Ontario before settling in Niagara Falls around 1860. Shortly after their arrival, they had commissioned the construction of their first home on Bampfield Street (now known as the "First Bampfield House"), and had lived there for over a decade. In 1872, James Bampfield purchased the subject property from John H. Cannon for a sum of $600. The construction of the house itself, attributed to Margaret Bampfield's distaste for their first home, is believed to have been completed circa 1875 based on an increase in property value in subsequent years. As a leading citizen of the Town of Clifton, James Bampfield had owned and operated the Great Western Restaurant at the C.N.R Station on Bridge Street, and held stock in the Niagara Falls Electric Light and Power Company. He was also the owner of the Mortimer and Bampfield Insurance Company, later known as the Morningstar and Bampfield Insurance Company. James and Margaret Bampfield moved into the small cottage next to the property near the turn of the century when their son, John Joseph Bampfield, a customs collector and former City Alderman, occupied the larger house. The property remained with the Bampfields until it was finally sold by the family in 1969. Bampfield Hall is a two storey dwelling with a rubble stone foundation. Its exterior is composed of bricks laid in stretcher bond which has been painted over several times since the mid-20th century. First coated in white and then a bright blue, the brick was painted in 2009 in a method known as "re-painting" to match the original look of the house. The building incorporates an asymmetrical three bay facade and a three storey square tower. In accordance with the Second Empire architectural style, the tower features a high-pitched mansard roof with bracketing beneath the eaves. The tower's original iron cresting was re- established in 2007, and is now placed on the roof's ridge. The tower also incorporates a gabled dormer on each façade containing bull's-eye openings. Its current aluminium siding is a replacement of the original scalloped slate shingles. The roof was originally clad in slate shingles and is built in the jerkin head style. Like the tower, it features iron cresting along the ridge of the roof. The gables exhibit gingerbread trim with drop finials at their ends, an element of the Gothic revival style. Also in keeping with Gothic revival architecture are the paired lancet windows found beneath each of the gables. These windows, as well as featuring a flat brick arch and moulded trim, each share a mullion. The space between the pointed windows contains a recessed wooden panel with an ornamental decoration. Extending across the front (east) façade, and part way into both the north and south façades, is the building's characteristic veranda. Restored in 2004 and again in 2013, the veranda features a closed gable pediment, dentils and fish scale siding. It is supported by several plain columns with simple capitals. The pediment itself is supported by four of these columns and features dentils, heavy crown moulding and a fish scale pattern tympanum. The front entrance, located in the base of the tower, retains the cut and etched glass panel in the upper section of the door. Apart from the paired lancet windows found beneath the gables and the singular lancet windows located on both the front (east) and north façades of the tower, the rest of the fenestration consists primarily of segmental windows. A paired segmental 1 over 1 window with moulded trim is placed on the left of the front entrance. A singular segmental window with similar surrounds was placed to the right of the entrance. On the south façade is a triangular bay window featuring two segmental window openings, a bracketed entablature and wooden pilasters. The north façade features a short segmental 2 light window with a flat brick arch. The windows retain their original sash. An additional two wings are attached to the back of the building. The first wing is one and a half storeys in height and is visible from the north façade. The second wing is one storey and features a relatively high gable.

SCHEDULE "B" to By-law No. 2014- Description of Property — Doran-Marshall-Burke House, 4851 River Road The Doran-Marshall-Burke house is located on the northwest corner of Ellis Street and River Road. The house and its carriage house are well preserved and excellent examples of Queen Anne revival style architecture. The main house features a large rounded corner tower and yellow brick composition and is often seen in textbooks of architecture in Ontario. Statement of Cultural Heritage Value or Interest The Doran-Marshall house was built in 1886 by William Lowry Doran, a prominent businessman in Niagara Falls. Along with his brother Charles, he owned the Dominion Suspender Co., one of the city's earliest manufacturing industries. Doran was one of the original investors of the city's first electric plant, the Niagara Falls Electric Light and Power Company. In fact, the Dominion Suspender Co. building was the first factory to receive electricity from the company. Doran also served as one of the original members of the Niagara Falls Board of Trade in 1889. The building's second owner was John W. Marshall, a well-known educator and Senior Inspector of Public Schools. The public elementary school on St. James Street in the city of Niagara Falls was named in his honour. John Marshall was a devout Presbyterian and a member of the Drummond Hill Presbyterian Church and clerk of the Kirk Session. He was also on the executive of the Board of Education of the Presbyterian Church in Canada. During its time, the Doran- Marshall Residence served as an unofficial social club and was often the hub of social activities. Design/Physical Value The Doran-Marshall-Burke house is a two storey structure built in the Queen Anne revival style. It is constructed of yellow brick laid in stretcher bond, with dichromatic brick work used on the building's decorative features. Limestone blocks make up the building's foundation, while further stonework is used on the building's corbelled southwest corner. Shingling is also used on portions of the south façade. Much of the building has been restored through efforts beginning in the late 20th century. The building's front façade faces towards the east and is made up of a complex rectangular shape with multiple-gables and articulated façades. A large, curved verandah, restored in 1988, extends across the east (front) and south sides. It has modern steel roofing, dentils under the eaves, and several Doric order columns. On the east (front) façade, the verandah terminates in a closed gabled pediment, under which is the building's front entrance. The south end of the verandah ends in an enclosed porch area (a modern alteration by the current owner), with a low-pitch gabled roof and eave returns. The porch features a Palladian window. Adjacent to the porch is a multi-paned rectangular window with a heavy stone jamb and sill. On the second storey, directly above this window, the wall is dressed in half-cove shingling and is projected forward from the building. Featuring another multi-paned rectangular window with detailed surrounds, the half-cove shingling of this storey continues up into the gable end where an aureole window is in place. Additionally, two windows identical to the detailed opening on the corner tower are found on the first storey of the east (front) façade. Notably, the house features a rounded tower on the southwest corner. The tower's cone-shaped roof is supported by several wooden brackets and is clad in alternating rectangular and scalloped cedar shingles. A rectangular window opening is incorporated into the tower, and features a round, brick hood mould with corbelled label stops and a plain limestone sill. A brick pattern of alternating yellow and red bricks is found directly beneath the hood mould. An outset brick chimney is located on the south façade and another on the west (rear) façade. The house features a multi-gabled roof with a built-in cornice gutter. It is decorated with scalloped cedar shingles, dentil moulding, and acorn drops under the eaves. The east (front) façade features two gable ends dressed in vertical wood slat siding, each containing an ogee window opening with plain surrounds. On the gable closest to the corner tower, brackets are placed on either side of the ogee window and support a simplified pediment. The coach house is located in the northwest corner of the property. It is an "L" shaped building, with the longest section extending towards the south end of the property. The longest section of the structure features a medium-pitch hip roof with a shingle dressed shed dormer. The roof is cedar shingles which were restored in 2011. On its south façade is a window opening, with a simplified pediment and matches the shape and materials of the roof. On the east façade of the coach house are four 24 light windows with segmental arches. The coach house has been converted to a dwelling and is used as part of the current bed and breakfast operation of the property.

SCHEDULE "B" to By-law No. 2014- Description of Property — John Thomson Jr. House, 4891 Portage Road The John Thomson Jr. House is situated on the historic Portage Road near the Morrison Street intersection. Having been built in 1825, the house is a well- preserved example of the Loyalist architectural style, as exhibited by the building's balanced façades, inset chimneys and gable roof. Its large square form and simple dressings belies the house's beautiful ornamental details, especially in its front portico and dormers. Statement of Cultural Heritage Value or Interest Settling along various points of the Niagara River, the Thomson's were pioneer settlers of the former Township of Stamford. Archibald Thomson, of Hawick, Scotland, immigrated to America in 1773, subsequently moving to Upper Canada six years later as a Loyalist and a member of the Butler's Rangers. He was joined by his brothers John and James Thomson in 1785. John Thomson resided at Whirlpool Farm and worked as a private contractor with the Portage Syndicate, who operated a transportation network which hauled goods from Queenston to Chippawa along the Portage Road. After further clearing and cultivation of his land, Thomson operated a small saw mill and two limestone kilns through the resources extracted from his property. At the time of writing, the property is used as the site of the Niagara Parks Whirlpool Golf Course, which extends to the edge of the Whirlpool Ravine. The house was built in 1825 by John Thomson Jr., a prominent citizen of the Stamford Township, and the son of John Thomson. It was his brother, James Thomson, who took over the Whirlpool Farm and the lime business after their father's death in 1814. The property was once part of a large farm that extended to Stanley Street from Drummond Road. A small section at the rear of the house is dated back to circa 1800, where it is believed to have been the site of the first meeting of the Free Masons in the Stamford area. The John Thomson Jr. House is a two storey building with a symmetrical five bay facade. It is constructed of solid limestone blocks laid in even course with a quarry faced finish, with a stone foundation. Evidence of ribbon pointing can be found on portions of the house. Built in the Loyalist style, the house would have originally been a one and a half storey structure with a low-pitched gable roof and no dormers. An early change to the roof structure has led to the building's current high-pitch gable form, which incorporates three shed dormers along the front (west) façade and three inset chimneys. The roof is clad in asphalt shingles and features decorative brackets and wood mouldings beneath the eaves. The clapboard gable ends, feature a projected entablature supported by brackets and fan-like wood detailing. Centered above the building's front entrance is the largest of the dormers which features brackets beneath the eaves and incorporates a closed pediment with a fantail tympanum. The center dormer features a paired rectangular 2 over 2 sash window with a shared wood mullion between. Carved wood panels are found beneath the window. Two more panels are positioned on either side of the window, mimicking the appearance of louvered shutters. The other two dormers are smaller in size and simpler in form. Both contain a 2 over 2 sash window. Like the gable ends, the dormers all feature fan-like ornamental siding and brackets beneath the eaves. The front (west) façade features four 2 over 2 windows with plain trim and louvered style shutters. In the centre is a hip-roofed portico containing the building's front door. Supported by four Doric order columns, the portico was likely added in the 1890s. Brackets jut out from the columns, decorated with fan- like ornamentation and diamond pattern motifs. The wooden door features pilasters, recessed panels and sidelights. On both the north and south façade are four recessed 2 over 2 sash windows with plain trim and sill. Several rectangular openings are located on the foundation level of the building. To the rear of the north façade is a long rectangular structure which is incorporated into the main building. Composed of the same limestone blocks and featuring a medium-pitch gable roof, the structure contains several double hung sash windows and a simple wooden barn door. On the rear (east) façade of the main structure is a square addition dressed in wooden shingles.

Ingles House, 6151 Culp Street The John Ingles House is a simple one and a half storey dwelling located at Culp Street and Corwin Avenue. The house could date from as early as 1850, but stylistically the steep angle of the centre gable reaching the main roof is closer to a building form found in the 1870's. The house is of the simple Gothic Revival Cottage style, popular during that time across Ontario, a form of picturesque architecture made popular in the mid- 19th century. Statement of Cultural Heritage Value or Interest Charles Leycester Ingles first came to the Niagara District as a traveling missionary in 1847. He had been educated at Kings College in Windsor, Nova Scotia and at the Theological College in Coburg, Ontario. He was ordained by Bishop Strachan of Toronto in August of 1847. The following year, he took charge of the Parish of Chippawa during the illness of Rev. William Leeming, eventually staying on as his assistant and curate. Ingles married Jemima Murray in 1851 and together they had three sons and two daughters. His son, John Chamberlayne Ingles, became an engineer, Harry Ingles a Barrister, and Charles Ingles Jr. the Archdeacon of York. It was Jemima Murray's mother who donated the land on which All Saints Anglican Church was built. In 1863, upon Rev. William Leeming's death, Ingles became the Rector of the parish of All Saints Church in Niagara Falls, and St. John's Church in the former Township of Stamford. In 1886, John Ingles purchased Lot 13 on the north side of Culp Street for a total of $1,450. The price of the lot in comparison to other properties in the area suggests that the house was most likely built prior to Ingle's purchase. The Ingles sold Lot 13 on Culp Street to Frank H, Perry in 1909, who then sold the house to Mary Davy in 1910. Mary Davy then sold part of Lot 13, (100 foot frontage) to Harry G. Acres. It was on this property that H.C. Acres built his home in 1924, and which part of this house became the offices of H.G. Acres Consulting and subsequently became the offices for the Y.W.C.A. The John Ingles House is a one and half storey structure with a symmetrical three bay façade. It rests on a limestone foundation and has a stucco exterior. In the centre of the south (front) façade is an open porch, supported by paired columns, and topped by a broken pediment. The ceiling of the porch is arched within the pediment. Within the porch is the building's front entrance, featuring sidelights, a glazed transom, recessed panels and drip mold. Two, 2 over 2 sash windows with drip molds, larger size than those on the side façades, make up the rest of the balanced three bay façade. In the peaked central gable end is a 1 over 1 sash window with plain trim and drip mold. The building's simple rectangular form, Jerkin head roof, and central peaked gable are characteristics of Gothic Revival style. Currently, the roof is clad in asphalt shingles, while its gables ends are clipped `suggesting' earlier thatched roof styles. A large outset brick chimney is placed on the east façade of the building, flanked on either side by 2 over 2 sash windows with plain trim and simple drip molds. A one storey square addition projects from the rear of the house. This elevation also features two 2 over 2 sash windows with similar surrounds.

SCHEDULE "B" to By-law No. 2014- Description of Property — Holy Trinity Church, 7820 Portage Road The Holy Trinity Church is located on Portage Road on the northern edge of the former Village of Chippawa. This simple one storey building is distinguished by its Gothic revival details, including the massive aureole window in the centre of the façade and its tall aluminium steeple. The church is set back substantially from the property line, with a wide, paved roadway leading to the front entrance. There is a cemetery surrounding the church on three sides. Statement of Cultural Heritage Value or Interest In February 1818, the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel in Foreign Parts received a signed petition at the express request "of prominent persons" for an Anglican parish in the former Village of Chippawa. Signed by twenty-one of Chippawa's leading citizens, it was in March of 1820 that the Rev. William Leeming was sent from England to Upper Canada in order to begin his duties. Serving the parish for over 43 years, it was under Leeming's guidance that plans for the construction of a church building was first made. The first church was completed in 1821 and was a white frame structure with Gothic windows and a steeple. Disaster struck however, when on the evening of September 12, 1839, the church was destroyed by fire. This incident and others perpetrated in the Niagara area was suggested to have been the work of self-styled Patriots following the Mackenzie Rebellion of 1837-1838. The congregation met ten days after the church's destruction and the decision to rebuild was soon made. John G. Howard, an English architect, renowned for his work on dozens of church buildings in Upper Canada, was enlisted for the design of the new building. Using the foundation of the original church, work began early in 1841, and had advanced sufficiently by August of that year to have Bishop John Strachan come from Toronto to lay the cornerstone. The new Holy Trinity opened for worship in 1842. Notable people who have attended this Church are King Edward VII, then Prince of Wales, Jenny Lind, the famous Swedish Opera singer and Laura Secord, who was in regular attendance at this church until her death. The architectural details of Holy Trinity Church are indicative of the Gothic revival style, as characterized by the building's lancet windows and tall steeple. Despite being built in the early 1840's, the building's details are reminiscent of earlier styles of architecture, emulating the structure of the original church building before its destruction in 1839. The church is one storey in height with a symmetrical three bay façade and composed of brick laid in Flemish bond, with limestone accents, including the quoins. The church is built on the remainder of the original building's stone foundation. Noted Architect, Peter J. Stokes, in his 1977 report described the stone foundation as `random coursed, hammer- dressed rubble capped by a cut and tooled stone plinth.' The report was prepared in order to prioritize necessary restoration work. The plan of the building is rectangular in form with a central entrance in the base of the projecting tower. It features a low-pitch gable roof clad in asphalt shingles with a boxed cornice and decorated frieze. The front gable is concealed from the street by two large wooden parapets with crenellated cornices, which flank the projecting tower, more typical of mediaeval churches. A brick addition was added to the rear of the structure on the northeast corner in 1958. Concrete stairs lead to the lancet entranceway on the south (front) façade. The front entrance contains a wood six panelled double door, a recent replacement of the previous eight panelled doors. Above the entryway is a recessed tympanum with carved diamond pattern decoration. Surrounding the tympanum is a solid limestone arch featuring carved voussoirs of alternating length. Found directly above the entryway is a beautiful aureole window with a heavy limestone surrounds and interlacing glazing bars. Like the pointed arch found over the entryway, the surrounds feature heavy limestone surrounds with carved voussoirs of alternating length. Nearing the top of the tower are dentils and block modillions. Place over the vent of the tower is a modelled outline of a lancet window with interlacing glazing bars. Between the four finials on each corner of the tower is a larger, decorated steeple. The original copper steeple was replaced with aluminium in 1991. The rest of the three bay façade consists of pointed arch double lancet window openings with stained glass glazing. Based on photographic evidence, the building's original windows with interlacing glazing bars were replaced sometime during the 19th century. Each of these windows was shortened, and feature a brick arch with a limestone key and spring stones. The east and west façades are nearly identical, in that they both consist of four pointed arch double lancet window openings with stained glass glazing, plain sills, brick arches, and limestone key and spring stones. The windows of the building were restored in 1983. On the north (rear) façade of the building is a stained glass triple light Gothic window opening with flamboyant style tracery. Serving the community for over 170 years, the Holy Trinity Church has had an active role in the development of the former Village of Chippawa. Built along the early transportation route of the area, the church was and is still a place of many community gatherings. In the surrounding cemetery are the remains of many of Chippawa's founding citizens and early supporters of the church.

SCHEDULE "B" to By-law No. 2014- Description of Property — Lyon's Creek Church, 7906 Schisler Road The Lyon's Creek Church is a one-storey red brick structure located on Schisler Road in the former Township of Crowland. With ties to the Methodist church and its development in the Niagara area, the building's plain details and simple form reflect the rural nature of the community. Originally, the designating by-law for the site included the adjacent cemetery found to the east of the lot, but has been altered to include only the property on which the church is situated. Statement of Cultural Heritage Value or Interest In 1786, Major George Neal became the first Methodist preacher in Niagara, and held religious meetings in various homes and barns in the Township of Crowland. After nearly twenty years of these temporary gatherings, a Methodist meeting house was built on the site in 1806, in an area known then as "White Pigeon". The site served as a soldier's barracks during the War of 1812-1814 and had even played a small role in the Battle of Cook's Mills in October 1814. Many of the area's earliest settlers are buried in the adjoining cemetery, including Henry and Joanna Buchner, Crowland's first white settlers, and several United Empire Loyalists of the Colonel Buchner branch. The huge oak in the adjacent cemetery is over 250 years old. After nearly sixty years of use, the meeting house was replaced with the current church building in 1861. From a church history book, it is known that the carpentry in the church was done by Alex Hurst and the brickwork by John Sennet. Like most other Methodist churches in Canada at the time, Lyon's Creek became part of the United Church of Canada in 1925. The church is no longer used as a religious building, but was sold in 2009 has since been converted for use as a residential building. The Lyon's Creek church is one storey with a symmetrical three bay façade. The exterior is composed of red brick laid in stretcher bond with a rubble stone foundation. Iron reinforcement bars have been installed on the upper walls at the level of the window arches to assist in the stabilizing of the walls. It features a medium pitch metal gabled roof, with plain soffit and fascia. It is rectangular in shape measuring 9.14m x 12.80m (30' x 42') with an addition on the east façade. The additional structure was erected in 1957 to accommodate a Sunday School room. In the front gable end is a large square date stone (1861). The front entrance located on the north (front) façade features a simple rectangular wooden door with a segmental 5-light transom, a rowlock arch and a plain limestone threshold. On either side of the entryway is a segmental window opening, with a multi-pane, coloured glass arrangement. Like the front entrance, the windows also feature a rowlock arch and a plain limestone sill. Above the arches is a raised brick stringcourse band that runs the course of the façade. The fenestration on the east and west façades are similar to the front, with three segmental window openings on the west façade and two on the east façade.
