NEW BUSINESS PBD-2015-07 NiagaraJRlls January 27, 2015 REPORT TO: Mayor James M. Diodati and Members of Municipal Council SUBMITTED BY: Planning, Building & Development SUBJECT: PBD-2015-07 Medical Marihuana Facilities & Sensitive Uses RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that Staff bring back to a future Public Meeting a definition and regulations governing Medical Marihuana Facilities and Sensitive Uses. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Council had previously been advised that Medical Marihuana Facilities are considered Agricultural land uses. It was later determined that Medical Marihuana Facilities would also be an industrial use under the term "Nursery for trees, plants, shrubs." Following the appeal of a recent Committee of Adjustment decision, Council requested a report outlining options to regulate such facilities. It has been determined that six of the twelve municipalities in Niagara Region define a Medicinal Marihuana Facility as a use. Of the six municipalities, four allow the use as-of- right in the agricultural zones and two permit it by site specific amendment only. Also of the six municipalities only two allow it as-of-right in the industrial zone and one permits it only by site specific amendment. Two municipalities have set a 70 metre (229 ft) separation distance between a Medicinal Marihuana Facility and a sensitive use and the three municipalities which only allow the use in agricultural areas have set a separation distance of 150 metres (492 ft) between the Facility and a sensitive use. Adopting a definition for a Medicinal Marihuana Facility and establishing regulations would allow City Council to distinguish the use from any other agricultural or nursery use in the City. It would also allow the City Council, through public engagement, to determine those zones where the use may be most appropriate. BACKGROUND This report responds to Council's direction from the January 2, 2015, Special Council meeting asking that Staff report back on the City's By-laws and options to deal with Medical Marihuana Facilities. Federal legislation dealing with the production, processing and distribution of Medical Marihuana changed in 2014. Council previously considered reports CD-2013-07 and PBD-2015-01. The first report advised that Medical Marihuana Facilities are considered to be an agricultural use; accordingly it would be permitted in the Agricultural zone (BL# 79-200), Rural zone (BL# 395-1966 Willoughby); Rural Agricultural (BL# 1538 Crowland) and BL# 79-69 (Humberstone). The report stated if an operator wanted to conduct this type of business in other than one of the agricultural 2 PBD-2015-07 January 19, 2015 zones, a zoning amendment and possibly an official plan amendment may be needed. Staff then became aware of the fact a Nursery for trees, plants, shrubs is a permitted use in the Light industrial (Li) and Prestige industrial (PI) zones in the urban area; this use does not distinguish the type of plants which may be grown. Unfortunately, this information did not make its way back to City Council. A review of what has happened with Medical Marihuana Facilities in other municipalities revealed that some towns and cities consider the use to be agricultural in nature while some view it as industrial in nature. Some municipalities permit the use in both the agricultural and industrial zones. The Niagara Falls situation is that the use would currently fall under both agricultural and industrial activities. The growing of crops, harvesting and delivery to market are all common agricultural activities without regard to a specific plant species. Therefore, Medical Marihuana Facilities have been considered an undisputed agricultural use in the City. The term Nursery for trees, plants, shrubs is undefined, but the common definition of a nursery would be for the growing of plants and the industrial zones allow fnr the nrnrcccinn nark, ri nn and of rrnrrlinrriv a ni irconni is an industrial use under the terms of the by-law and can establish as-of-right in the PI and LI zones. Some municipalities have taken a more direct approach to address Medical Marihuana Facilities and created a definition for the use and have incorporated additional regulations for these operations. ANALYSIS/RATIONALE Niagara Falls Official Plan The Good General Agricultural designation in the Niagara Falls Official Plan provides that the predominant use of land shall include crop farming, tender fruit and vineyards, dairy farming, livestock operations, nurseries and intensive greenhouse as well as forestry and conservation uses. The Official Plan also provides for Value Added Farm uses which are small scale uses related to the current on-site farming activity or surrounding farm operations that supports farming and adds value through processing, sales or distribution. This is consistent with the Region of Niagara Official Plan. Regional staff has been supportive of the other municipalities which have attempted to regulate this use. Regional staff has noted that Medical Marihuana Facilities are considered an agricultural use by definition in the Regional Official Plan and the processing and distribution of the product is supported by the Region's value-added agricultural policies. The City's Industrial designation provides for manufacturing, processing, reclaiming, recycling, warehousing, distribution, laboratory and research and storage as well as all forms of service industry. The policies provide that lighter; more prestige type industries will be located near residential areal and other sensitive -land i rices. General !ndi stria) 3 PBD-2015-07 January 21, 2015 and Heavy Industrial zones will be separated from residential areas in order to protect such areas from the effects of noise, heavy traffic and other offensive characteristics. Study of Medical Marihuana Facilities Should Council wish to study the appropriate locations for Medical Marihuana Facilities and prohibit the establishment of any such facility, it would most effectively be done by passing an "Interim Control By-law" under Section 38 of the Planning Act. This Section of the Act allows Council to freeze the establishment of any new Medical Marihuana Facilities until such a time as adequate public consultation has occurred and new regulations can be created for enactment. The City would have up to a year to conduct such a Study with a 1 year extension option. Alternatively, Council may wish to follow the path of several other municipalities and create a definition of a Medical Marihuana Facility to be added to the City's zoning by- laws and to add specific regulations for such a use. This method would by-pass the need for a Study, but would still necessitate the standard public consultation process. Definition of Medical Marihuana Facility Staff conducted a survey of the 12 area municipalities in Niagara Region and received a response that 6 of the municipalities have passed by-laws to define the use, 3 view the use as agricultural and have not defined the use and 2 municipalities did not respond. Each municipality has a slight variation of the definition, but the following is generally reflective of the definitions created. Medical Marihuana Grow and Production Facility means a building used for the cultivation, processing, testing, destruction, packaging and/or shipping of medical marihuana, licensed under the Marihuana for Medicinal Purposes Regulations to the Controlled Substances Act. In addition, several municipalities which chose to adopt a definition of a Medical Marihuana Facility also adopted a definition of a Sensitive Use. Generally that definition is as follows: Sensitive Use means a building or associated amenity area (indoor or outdoor) where humans may be adversely affected by adjacent industrial-type land uses including, but not limited to, day care facilities, hospitals, churches, schools, playgrounds, residential uses and similar uses. By including a specific definition, it would effectively be its own use and not automatically an agricultural use or an industrial use. In essence, if the City of Niagara Falls were to adopt such a definition, a Nursery for trees, shrubs, plants would not include a Medical Marihuana Facility. Nor would it automatically be an agricultural use. 4 PBD-2015-07 January 19, 2015 City Council would then be able to determine through the public consultation process, those zones where a Medical Marihuana Facility would be allowed. Location of Medical Marihuana Facilities Through Staff's survey of area municipalities it was found of those municipalities which defined the use, 4 municipalities added the use as-of-right to the Agricultural, Specialty Crop or Rural zones. While 2 added the use to the Agricultural/Rural zones, it was done with the proviso that such a use could only be established through a site specific zoning amendment, thus allowing Council ultimate authority over where the use would establish. Of the 6 municipalities which created a definition for Medical Marihuana Facilities, 2 allow the use as-of-right in the Industrial zone(s) and 1 allows the use in their industrial area(s) only by site specific zoning amendment. In addition, some of the municipalities specifically prohibited the use from establishing in a dwelling unit This nrnhihitinn is part nf the 7(114 lanislatinn hitt harause nf a legal challenge by individuals who were previously allowed to grow medicinal marihuana in their own homes, those municipalities have taken a belt and suspenders approach. The legal challenge is to be considered next month. Distance Separations The Province of Ontario has adopted the D6 Guidelines for Compatibility between Industrial Facilities and Sensitive Land Uses. The guidelines are to be used for differing classes of industrial land uses which have the potential to produce point source and/or fugitive air emissions such as noise, vibration, odour, dust and others through normal operations. The guidelines do not apply to agricultural operations. In determining the class of industry, uses would be assessed on operational aspects such as plant emissions, hours of operation, traffic movement and mitigation employed. A Class I industry is a small scale self-contained plant which has a low probability of fugitive emissions. There are daytime operations only, with infrequent movement of products and/or heavy trucks and no outside storage. A Class II industry is a medium scale processing and manufacturing business with outdoor storage of wastes or materials and there are periodic outputs of minor annoyance. Shift operations are permitted and there is frequent movement of goods and trucks during daytime hours. A Class III industry is a large scale manufacturing or processing business of large physical size with outside storage of raw and finished products, large production volumes and continuous movement of products and employees. It would have frequent outputs of major annoyance and a high probability of fugitive emissions. 5 PBD-2015-07 January 19, 2015 A Medical Marihuana operation is required to be conducted entirely inside and that there be no outside storage or processing. Processing and shipping would largely be day-time operations. Emissions of odours are to be mitigated and controlled. For all but size, a Medical Marihuana Facility would most closely fit under a Class 1 category. The Ministry of the Environment has identified potential areas of influence based on case studies and past experience. Accordingly, the Province has set the following guidelines for distance separation: • Class I - 70 metres • Class II - 300 metres • Class III - 1000 metres The following represents a general synopsis of the separation distances used by the surveyed municipalities. The Town of Fort Erie allows Medical Marihuana Facilities to be located the same 30 metre (98 ft) distance from interior and rear lot lines as greenhouses in the Agricultural zone, except where the facility abuts a residential zone, a residential use or a sensitive land use then the distance separation is increased to 70 metres (229 ft). However, the additional setback distance does not apply to existing buildings. Within Prestige Industrial areas, a Medical Marihuana Facility can be located as close as 6 metres (19.6 ft) to an interior lot line, but that distance increases to the same 70 metre setback where the use abuts a residential zone or use or a sensitive use. Again, existing buildings are exempt from the additional setback. Niagara-on-the-Lake requires a 70 metre setback from an interior or rear lot line where it abuts a sensitive use and requires a 3 metre (9.8 ft) wide buffer strip in the Agricultural zone. Within the Glendale Light Industrial zone, a 3 metre wide buffer strip is included for Medical Marihuana Facilities beyond the standard industrial setbacks. The Town of Port Colborne requires a 150 metre (492 ft) separation distance between a Medical Marihuana Facility and a sensitive land use in the Agricultural and Rural zones. In addition, a 1.5 metre (5 ft) planting strip is required along the lot line common with the sensitive use. Wainfleet requires a 150 metre wide setback between a Medical Marihuana Facility and a lot line of a Residential or Institutional zone or use. The Town of West Lincoln requires a setback of 150 metres between a Medical Marihuana Facility and a lot line. It appears a 70 metre setback has been most commonly set (including the City of Toronto), but that 150 metres has been used in the non-urban (agricultural) setting by some municipalities although it does not relate to the D6 Guidelines (which do not apply). Other Regulations adopted by the surveyed municipalities, included regulating the minimum lot size; lot coverage (sliding scale based on lot size); no outside storage, not permitted in a dwelling unit; limiting processing and distribution as an accessory/secondary use; requiring a 1.8 metre (6 ft) wood fence where more than 10% 6 PBD-2015-07 January 19, 2015 of the building is glass and artificial light is used. Some municipalities require a Medical Marihuana Facility to be subject to a site plan agreement. Options Council in considering next steps may wish to have regard to the following: 1. Determine whether to proceed with an Interim Control By-law to study Medical Marihuana Facilities versus proceeding to a public meeting under the Planning Act to introduce a new definition and regulations. 2. Establishing a new definition, in order for Council to choose which zones to permit a Medical Marihuana Facility (ie. would no longer simply be an automatic agricultural use or a nursery use). An Official Plan policy to direct this may be necessary. 3. Allow the use as-of-right in Agricultural and Industrial zones or only by site specific zoning amendment. 4. Determine the appropriate distance separation to be used, if determined annrnnriata FINANCIAL/STAFFING/LEGAL IMPLICATIONS There are no direct financial implications, except that MPAC may assess the crop production portion of the business as an agricultural use and the processing portion of the business as an industrial use. CITY'S STRATEGIC COMMITMENT Under the City's Strategic Priorities for Economic Vitality is to actively pursue economic development opportunities including the health related sector. Proceeding under the Planning Act process to adopt new definition provides an opportunity for civic engagement. LIST OF ATTACHMENTS None.

Diodati and Members of Municipal Council City of Niagara Falls, Ontario SUBMITTED BY: Recreation & Culture SUBJECT: R&C-2015-01 Merger of Arts & Culture and Museums Advisory Committees RECOMMENDATION 1. That Council approve the merger of the Arts & Culture Committee with the Museums Advisory Board to form the Culture and Museums Advisory Committee. 2. And that Council approve the Terms of Reference for the Culture and Museums Advisory Committee as outlined in the report. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The City of Niagara Falls undertook the preparation of a Culture Plan through the 2013 capital budget process. TCI Management Consultants were hired November 2013 to complete the plan with the final report to be finalized June 2014. Community consultation occurred over seven months, the data collection phase consisted of the following; online individual and organization surveys, stakeholder interviews and Public Open Houses on March 6 and June 11, 2014. The final Culture Plan was presented at the July 8, 2014 Council meeting. City Council approved a motion that report R&C-2014-10-City of Niagara Falls Culture Plan and presentation be deferred to the next term of Council. One of the Culture Plan recommendations is to form a new Culture and Museum Committee. With Committee of Council appointments being advertised and finalized within the next month, staff recommends the merging of the two committees be implemented at this time. The committee recommendation is the first step to implement the Culture Plan. With limited staffing resources, the Culture portfolio will be the responsibility of the Museums division and the new committee will better align existing staff and community resources. 2 R&C-2015-001 January 27, 2015 BACKGROUND The Arts & Culture Committee was established by virtue of Bylaw No.91-40. The purpose of the committee is, "to foster, develop and unite artistic and cultural activities in the community". Goals of the committee are to support the development of Arts & Culture, to recommend to City Council arts and culture policies and interests and to recommend to council the allocation of municipal spending in the areas of arts and culture. In 2004, staff engaged in a review of all committees and appointments. The original staff recommendation was to merge the three major committees under the, then, Parks, Recreation and Culture umbrella (Recreation, Arts & Culture and Trails and Bikeways). The proposed merger did not occur at that time because of the different purposes of the committees. There was a concern that arts and cultural issues would take a "back seat" to sports and recreational issues. The current proposed merger would meld more compatible committees. The Museums Advisory Board was initially formed as the Museums Board in 1973, (Bylaw No. 73-23). General responsibilities included all matters related to staffing the museum, policy development, programming and annual reporting. In 2010, Niagara Falls History Museum joined the City of Niagara Fails, Recreation & Culture Department. Due to the governance change, the board became a committee of council. The committee terms of reference were revised to reflect the changes. The current committee provides input and assistance for fundraising events and sponsorships. It also provides input into the development of policies, activities and support. The capital fundraising campaign is complete and the role of the committee is once again in transition. ANALYSIS/RATIONALE TCI Management Consultants, the Culture Plan Steering Committee and community stakeholders collected community data, reviewed and researched other municipalities to develop a Culture Plan for the City of Niagara Falls. Throughout the process Culture was defined as: The full spectrum of arts activity: performing, visual, digital media, literary (opera to rap; highbrow to lowbrow), history and heritage, the range of services and facilities provided by the Niagara Falls Public Library, the full spectrum of competency: beginners, hobbyists, spectators, professionals and the public and private (commercial) suppliers of culture. 3 R&C-2015-001 January 27, 2015 The Culture Plan recommendations are a reflection of the feedback the consultants received from staff and the public. An internal implementation plan will be developed to reflect the City's strategic priorities. The draft Culture Plan recommendations were communicated to the public June 11, 2014. Recommendations were also presented to applicable Committees of Council and the Library Board. In general the Committees of Council support the recommendations. Culture Plan recommended; Reduce Number of Committees: Ultimately with the new term of Council, the City should consider merging the certain committees of council in order to reduce duplication, enhance committee mandate and encourage efficiencies. An immediate step to this effect would be to merge the Arts & Culture Committee with the Museum Advisory Committee to form the new Culture and Museum Committee (or possibly, simply `Culture Committee'). While each Committee has its own area of responsibility, it is felt that there is more to be gained in common cause and information—sharing in a merged Committee than might be lost through a lack of focus on each Committee's current sphere of influence. Culture Plan also recommended; Encourage Council Representation for MCH and Arts and Culture Advisory Committees: There are three Committees of Council that are Council's link to the arts, culture and heritage life of Niagara Falls: these are (1) the Municipal Heritage Committee, (2) the Niagara Falls Museum Advisory Board, and (3) the Arts and Culture Committee. None of these Committees has formal Council representation. Staff support, and have discussed with committee members, the merging of the Arts & Culture Committee with the Museums Committee. Both committees and staff have worked together to plan and implement the Niagara Falls Night of Arts hosted at the Niagara Falls History Museum. Culture stakeholders volunteered to plan and implement various 1812 events throughout the community and region. Agenda items and business arising from both committees have grown increasingly alike. The Niagara Falls History Museum celebrates the history and tells the story of the City's cultural past. The facility hosts various cultural events, including Thursday night programming; film series, dancing, poetry reading and new this winter, improv night. The Temporary Gallery and theatre space are available for programming and special events. Merging the Arts & Culture Committee and the Museums Advisory Board will enable streamlined action and decision making on a broader scope of projects including the implementation of the 2014 Culture Plan. The Terms of Reference for the merged Culture & Museums Committee is attached. 4 R&C-2015-001 January 27, 2015 FINANCIAL/STAFFING/LEGAL IMPLICATIONS With limited staffing resources, the Culture portfolio will be the responsibility of the Culture & Museums Manager, formerly the Museums Manager. The Public Art Advisory Task Force will be the responsibility of the Head of Curatorial Services, as the position is responsible for the City's Public Art and Museums collection. No additional staff positions are recommended at this time. Merging the Arts & Culture Committee with the Museums Advisory Board will form a stronger, collective community voice of culture and will reduce staff attendance at both committee meetings. CITY'S STRATEGIC COMMITMENT Parks. Recreation & Culture Strategic Plan 2007 (ten year plan) Action Plan #2 statsri• Review and Revise Parks, Recreation and Culture Committees. As stated in the plan "this structure is cumbersome, duplicates efforts and impedes efficient decision making. Committee structure should be revised to reduce its size and create a structure that parallels the Department's mandate and promotes effective decision making and use of staff resources".

As you know, the need for our services continues to rise. In November 2014 we hit a new, all time high of servicing 164 families in one day. We must continue to create new fundraising initiatives in order to meet this high demand. One of the fundraisers we are hoping to create for 2015 is Travelling Tapas. This is a revision of our Restaurant Ride event which we ran for several years until 2009 where attendees travel and dine at four restaurants within Niagara Falls, ending at one larger location for dessert and entertainment. We feel that we can bring back this event with a new brand and new partners, as there are many new restaurants that have opened since 2009, and we had several ticket inquiries from past attendees. Niagara Falls Transit was a key partner for our Restaurant Ride events, ands-eatly contributed to their success. We hope we can partner again with Niagara Falls Transit for our 2015 event, Travelling Tapas. As a partner in this event, Niagara Falls Transit would supply 4 buses and drivers on Sunday April 19, 2015 from 12pm-4pm, transporting 50 guests each to four different restaurants within Niagara Falls, starting and ending at the same location. In recognition of your support, we will gladly offer your drivers complimentary tickets to the event, and include Niagara Falls Transit as an event sponsor in all promotional materials, as we have done in the past. We hope we can count on your continued support of this event. I am happy to meet with you to discuss this further at your convenience.

The Coldest Night of the Year is a 2, 5 and 10km winter walk which provides participants with the opportunity to experience a hint of the challenges faced by those experiencing homelessness, while raising funds for our emergency support services for families living below the poverty line in Niagara Falls. Niagara Falls residents will walk with 85 other cities across Canada, who are raising money to help the homeless, hungry and hurting. The event will start and finish at St. Andrew's United Church and it is our hope that we reach our fundraising goal of$25,000.The cost to walk is a $25.00 registration fee, or free if participants under 17 raise a minimum of$75.00, and adults raise $150.00 in pledges. At this time, we would like to ask the City of Niagara Falls Councillors to create a team in the Coldest Night of the Year walk on February 21st. Councillor Victor Pietrangelo joined us for our first event in 2014 and we are delighted to have him participate again this year.

EDAW has been commemorated across Canada since 1988 by established eating disorder organizations, education and public health institutions, and concerned members of the public. It draws attention to the causes, prevalence and impact of eating disorders. Eating disorders are the number one cause of death among all psychiatric illnesses and are the third most common cause of death in teenage girls. In fact, 5-8%of Canadian girls will experience an eating disorder in their lifetime. However, eating disorders can develop in anyone, regardless of age, ethno-racial background, socioeconomic status,gender or ability. Unfortunately, stigma and secrecy still surround eating disorders, causing many people who are suffering to refrain from seeking help, and to struggle in silence. We know that through open, supportive dialogue, we can help break the shame and silence that affect nearly I million Canadians that are living with a diagnosed eating disorder and the millions of others who are struggling with unhealthy food and weight preoccupation. EDAW is a time to increase awareness about eating disorders, their impact and to shed light on the dangerous and pervasive myths that surround them. It is a time of year when Canadians can learn more about eating disorders and about the resources that are available for individuals and family members who are impacted by them. The National Eating Disorder Information Centre(NEDIC)was a founding member of the international drive to institute EDAW. Founded in 1985, NEDIC is Canada's oldest national organization dedicated to helping those with eating disorders. We provide education and information as well as support and referral for those with eating disorders,their families, friends and health care professionals. Since our toll-free helpline became available to Canadians from coast to coast in 2013, we have spoken with thousands of individuals, parents, friends, and teachers who are seeking help and information. It is through our outreach and education efforts, that we are able to support these individuals in their struggle to find hope and healing. Municipal recognition of EDAW would help to affirm the experiences of those with a friend, family member, or important person in their life who is dealing with this life-threatening mental illness, and draw attention to the need for eating disorder prevention, research, treatment,and resources. Attached please find the goals of Eating Disorder Awareness Week 2015. Please proclaim EDAW in Niagara Falls and help raise awareness and hope among the many who are impacted by this illness. For more information about Eating Disorder Awareness Week and this request,please contact me. Thank You.

It was our understanding from the council meeting that there was a hold on this until the Spring. Councillor Morocco had proposed playing soccer without any structure for the first season. We thought this was agreed to by all of Council? Now we are told that the netting and poles will be put up immediately? This action will be monitored with a presentation to be offered to the council with their recommendation's as to the effect it will have on the residents. We are not sure when this plan was proposed but it goes against the ruling at the Council meeting, in our opinion. After doing some research we found this information and feel that we have been duped by the City, the School and the board into thinking that no one was doing anything wrong with this project. We beg to differ; here is what we found out There is a thing called 'due process' that Municipalities must follow - one of the fundamental tenets of this process is communication (in lay-man's terms, letting the neighbours know of any material change in the use of a property that will or could affect the neighbours) - We would think that a 20' high fence adjacent to our property boundary would fall squarely into the category of 'material change of use'. Quite simply, we should have received a notice from the Planning Department that a material change was planned on the adjoining property and all of the neighbours adjoining that property should have been notified in writing and given the chance to object and, if necessary, appeal the decision to the Ontario Municipal Board (OMB). We have copied a section of the Planning Act, to help put this in the context of the Government's own words. The Planning Act sets out the ground rules for land use planning in Ontario and describes how land uses may be controlled, and who may control them. The Act is legislation passed by your elected provincial representatives to: • promote sustainable economic development in a healthy natural environment within a provincial policy framework • provide for a land use planning system led by provincial policy • integrate matters of provincial interest into provincial and municipal planning decisions by requiring that all decisions shall be consistent with the Provincial Policy Statement when decision-makers exercise planning authority or provide advice on planning matters • provide for planning processes that are fair by making them open, accessible,timely and efficient • encourage co-operation and coordination among various interests • recognize the decision-making authority and accountability of municipal councils in planning. The Act provides the basis for: • considering provincial interests,such as protecting and managing our natural resources • establishing iocai planning administration,including planning boards in northern Ontario(See Northern Ontario, No. 7 in the series.) • preparing official plans and planning policies that will guide future development • a variety of tools that municipalities can use to facilitate planning for the future • establishing a streamlined planning process which emphasizes local autonomy in decision- making • exempting official plans and official plan amendments from approval (See Official Plans, No. 2 in the series.) • regulating and controlling land uses through zoning by-laws and minor variances (See Zoning By- Laws, No. 3 in the series.) • dividing land into separate lots for sale or development through a plan of subdivision or a land severance (See Subdivisions and Land Severances, Nos. 4 &5 in the series.) • ensuring the rights of local citizens to be notified about planning proposals, to give their views to their municipal council and, where permitted,to appeal decisions to the Ontario Municipal Board (OMB) or in some cases, a municipal Local Appeal Body (LAB) where a LAB has been established by a municipality.The OMB and LAB are independent administrative tribunals responsible for hearing appeals and deciding on a variety of contentious municipal matters(See the Ontario Municipal Board No. 6 in the series.) • ensuring that approval authorities or the Ontario Municipal Board have regard to decisions made by municipal councils and approval authorities when dealing with the same planning matters • allowing provincial appeals only through the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing (See The Plan Review and Approval Process, No. 9 in the series). With some guidance from professionals that have had years of dealing with school boards and city councils, our plan is to officially appeal to the OMB. Instructions for this procedure will be handled by our lawyer. In our opinion, and hopefully in the opinion of the OMB Board, the planning act rules as shown above are being broken. To summarize, we believe that we are being bullied both by the school and the city council, in order to have their own way with this procedure. Hopefully the OMB will listen to our appeal and offer a justified resolution. Sincerely, The Residents McGarry Drive St. Michael's Avenue Dean Iorfida From: Dean Iorfida Sent: Monday, December 22, 2014 3:24 PM To: Joyce Morocco Cc: Alex Herlovitch Subject: RE: St Michael's High School Netting Joyce: The motion was the following, which was subsequently ratified when the minutes were approved: ORDERED on the motion of Councillor Thomson, seconded by Councillor Morocco that staff monitor the matter, assist the parties and report back to Council. Carried Unanimously with Councillor Pietrangelo declaring a conflict. Alex made the following comments in response to Mrs. Bordun's email, which I feel are pertinent and on point: Ken T I find the letter attached well intended, but mis-informed. I did speak with Mrs. Bordun yesterday and she advised me that the residents had been speaking with a lawyer. I assume that is how she comes to quote sections of the Planning Act. There are also two assumptions of what was meant by Council's November 11th motion which Dean cites in the email below: First - Mrs. Bordun assumed that the motion introduced by Councillor Morocco was that the netting not be installed and that after the first soccer season the situation be reviewed to see whether or not the installation of the netting is warranted. Second - I had talked to Dean following the meeting and it was our belief that everything was to be done as approved which meant that the netting go up and be monitored. The motion, as you can read, below, is not specific. As I have stated in the past and will repeat, the Site Plan Process under the Planning Act is not subject to consultation with the public in the same way as it is required for official plans, zoning and subdivision of land. The only person with the right to appeal a decision on a site plan is the owner; in this case, the School Board. So I am unsure as to how Mrs. Bordun and her neighbours think they will take this matter to the OMB as stated at the end of her letter. In hindsight, would have been better for the City or School to informally talk to the neighbours about the soccer field relocation and netting. At the time the application was being processed, it was believed nets to keep the balls from entering people's yards was preferable to not having any means of keeping balls from damaging adjacent properties. Since Mrs. Bordun's correspondence is addressed to All Members of Council, I assume that it will be placed on a future Council Agenda with direction for staff to report back. Accordingly, it is not my intention to respond to this letter now.

This has always been a priority for the auxiliary. • Many other community events We have been trying to recruit new members, but in today's society this has been a great challenge. People are very busy in their own lives today, and do not have the time to commit to small organizations like ours. Then along came the new Not-for-Profit Act legislation beginning this October. This Act creates a generous amount of paperwork for our organization, as well as added expense to hire a lawyer to make sure we are correct in all of our decisions. We feel this commitment involved would be beyond our scope. After lengthy meetings, we have decided to close the auxiliary. Our members, though saddened by this decision,feel it is our only recourse in view of all the contributing factors and recent events. Unfortunately, this derision may affect you in some way as we are unable to keep up with donating to your cause in the future. We ask that you please remove our name from your mailing list.

Diodati and Members of Municipal Council SUBMITTED BY: Clerks Department SUBJECT: CD-2015-01 Pan Am Games — Noise By-law Relief for Overnight Deliveries RECOMMENDATION That Council approve relief to the City's Noise By-law (2004-105, as amended) regarding overnight deliveries during the period of the 2015 Pan Am/Parapan Games (June 26 to August 15), subject to the delivery companies and receiving businesses following the suggested Code of Practice for Off-Peak Deliveries (OPD). EXECUTIVE SUMMARY In order to achieve the goals of a well-planned event, the Ministry of Transportation is encouraging off-peak business deliveries during the time period of the 2015 Pan Am/Parapan Games. Although such overnight deliveries are under the Time and Activity prohibitions of the City's Noise By-law, Council does have the authority to grant relief under the by-law for an event of this kind. Staff is supportive of the relief requested and does not foresee any issues. BACKGROUND Schedule 3, clause 9 of the City's Noise By-law (2004-105, as amended) restricts the time and activity of deliveries, outside of the tourist core, from between 9:00 p.m. one day to 7:00 a.m. the next day, 9:00 a.m. on Saturdays, Sundays and statutory holidays. In an effort to remove congestion from the Q.E.W. corridor during the 2015 Pan Am/Parapan Games (June 26 to August 15), the Ministry of Transportation (MTO) is encouraging off-peak deliveries (OPD) during the games. Similar programs have occurred during other large scale events (Vancouver Olympics) and the MTO conducted a pilot in Toronto in 2014, without issue or complaint. The MTO is requesting that municipalities "apply reasonable discretion in enforcement of noise by-laws" or be given appropriate approvals based on specific municipal (noise) by-laws. ANALYSIS/RATIONALE As indicated, the City's Noise By-law restricts deliveries, outside of the tourist core, from 9:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m. (9:00 a.m., on weekends). The by-law, does allow for relief to 2 CD-2015-01 January 13, 2015 provisions with Council approval. Previous Council approvals have related to special events, usually of limited duration, without incident. The By-law Services section acts on a complaint basis related to noise. In the past, the section has received complaints related to business deliveries; however, such complaints have been few. Also, in such cases By-law staff has worked with businesses to mediate any issues with neighbouring, usually residential, properties,. By-law staff does not expect that there will be issues over the relatively short duration of the time period and it is likely that the amount of OPD's to Niagara Falls will be minimal. Nonetheless, if need be, staff will deal with any issues on a complaint basis. To mitigate issues, the MTO has produced an off-peak delivery "Code of Practice", which provides tips to drivers and receivers on noise mitigation techniques. The MTO will be making presentations to the type of businesses that may avail themselves of the off-peak deliveries (i.e., Wal-Mart, Canadian Tire, Tim Horton's, McDonald's, LCBO, Beer Store et al.) and providing the businesses with the Code of Practice. If the parties adhere to the code, the impacts of the OPD's should be minimized. The City's Transportation Services department will work with the MTO on the broader transportation issues in anticipation of the games and has no issue with the OPD pilot. FINANCIAL/STAFFING/LEGAL IMPLICATIONS Council has the authority to provide relief to the Noise By-law to allow for off-peak deliveries during the duration of the PanAm/Parapan Games. Obviously, the games will have an economic impact on the Province and it is in all municipalities' interests to facilitate the smooth running of the games and minimize anticipated traffic issues.

The Games also present a unique opportunity to explore ways to improve transportation across the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area (GTHA) network. The Goods Movement Office (GMO) in the Ministry of Transportation (MTO) is running an Off-Peak Deliveries (OPD) Pilot to help reduce transportation demand at peak hours during the Games. All Games host municipalities are encouraged to partner with MTO to support OPD during the Games. OPD has proven itself in jurisdictions around the world. By shifting daytime deliveries to the evening and overnight periods, it reduces the number of delivery- related trucks on the road during the day. This has the potential to reduce delivery times, fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. GMO is interested in the City of Niagara Falls participating in the 2015 OPD Pilot which will run from June 26 to August 15, 2015 to coincide with the Games. Participation in the OPD Pilot will not only contribute to the management of congestion during the Games, but will provide valuable lessons on the potential of OPD for future consideration. For your reference, please find attached the 2015 OPD Municipal Toolkit and a related presentation. These materials will provide you with information to help determine if OPD is right for your municipality, and provide tips for implementation. To facilitate the planning of the OPD Pilot, we would appreciate a response as to whether your municipality will be participating, by 5:00 pm on February 27, 2015 and we will be contacting you over the coming weeks to discuss further. .../2 - 2 - Should you have any questions, or wish to learn more about the 2015 OPD Pilot, please contact: Matti ievv Verrall Senior Policy Advisor Goods Movement Office, Ministry of Transportation Of DJ to IDport i, intari o. :Ca 416-585-7344 With your support, we can work together to provide a positive transportation experience for visitors, spectators, residents and businesses during the Games.

We need strategies to help offset the impact of increased Games traffic on residents, businesses and visitors, especially during the peak daytime hours. Support for off-peak deliveries (OPD) is one such strategy that can alleviate congestion during peak-traffic periods. What is O O abo=.t? Off-peak deliveries defined Implementation of off-peak deliveries is a transportation demand management strategy that The term off-peak deliveries (OPD) means has proven itself in jurisdictions around the world. receiving and shipping goods after standard By shifting deliveries to the evening and business hours (typically between 7:00 p.m. and overnight periods, it reduces the number of 6:00 a.m.). delivery-related trucks on the roads during the '— "-tm'"" day. OPD's impact in other jurisdictions Several cities have tested OPD to help alleviate congestion during peak traffic periods and special events. OPD projects helped make the Olympics a success in both Vancouver in 2010 and London in 2012. In a recent OPD pilot in New York City, participating companies reported delivery costs were reduced by 30 per cent and delivery times were greatly improved. Within the European Union, Dublin, Barcelona and the Netherlands have all piloted night-delivery initiatives. (More details about these pilots are available in the P scurcas section of this toolkit.) Building on the best practices identified in other jurisdictions, the Ministry of Transportation (MTO) and City of Toronto in August 2014 undertook a successful four-week OPD pilot. The results and lessons learned are reflected in this toolkit. This toolkit is designed to help Ontario municipalities develop their own OPD pilots as part of their overall transportation plan for the TORONTO 2015 Games. If successful, OPD pilots may provide valuable lessons for future consideration. S 5 ``u Ox# Y 1111‘ 11..

P. By promoting off-peak deliveries as part of an overall Games transportation plan, municipalities can generate benefits for a broad range of people and organizations. OPD can help: • municipal transportation managers reduce traffic demand during peak periods and increase overall efficiency of the transportation system • carriers improve the efficiency and reliability of delivery schedules, reduce fuel and labour costs, and improve fleet utilization • businesses improve productivity by receiving goods during less-busy business hours • residents spend less time in traffic, waste less fuel and have more time available for other activities. Outside of the pilot, we currently deliver to some Canadian Tire stores in off-peak hours, which allows us— to cost-effectively manage our trarisportaiion network, and allows the stores to receive and move product to Ithe retail floor prior to the store opening every morning."

Potential synergies include: • information sharing during the planning phase • networking and industry introductions during the recruitment phase • collaboration and support in measuring the OPD impacts By working together, we can make the TORONTO 2015 Games a better experience for visitors, spectators, residents and businesses. "The MTO's off-peak delivery pilot has proven its potential to be an effective instrument in our toolbox of congestion-reduction strategies in preparation for the TORONTO 2015 Pan Am/Parapan Am Games. We hope that a broader application of off-peak deliveries can help us reduce daytime congestion during the Games, while continuing to serve the needs of the business community as well as broader community interests."

I}„✓ , .........i ,/ • syr A: Sample Code of Practice A documented code of practice provides businesses and delivery companies with simple, practical tips on how to minimize noise during off-peak deliveries (OPD). The sample below is based in part on the City of London's successful experience with OPD during the 2012 Olympic Games. Code of Practice for Off-Peak Deliveries Everyone can contribute to making the OPD project a success, Each and every delivery point and type of delivery has its own unique set of conditions and circumstances. These should be reviewed in advance on a case-by-case basis, and specific noise-reduction measures should be introduced, if needed. Participating businesses should make sure that staff, suppliers and carriers are aware of any OPD-related changes to their current delivery processes and the reasons for those changes. Drivers in particular can play a key role in minimizing noise during deliveries. As a handy reminder of the various tips and suggestions, keep a laminated copy of the code in the vehicle. General guidance Take some time to think about the likely sources of noise during off-peak delivery and servicing. How can the noise be reduced? • Use quieter delivery vehicles and equipment, where possible. • Make sure all equipment—both on the vehicle and at the delivery point—is in good working order and is maintained to minimize noise when in operation. • Ensure all staff involved in delivery understand the code of practice and know how to implement it. • Make sure all suppliers and carriers receive copies of the code of practice and are aware of its importance. H t ' Std REOURCES Tips for receivers to reduce noise during deliveries • Avoid using exterior bells, alarms or outdoor speakers at delivery points whenever possible. • Use a two-man team to reverse into docking areas where appropriate. If the lighting is adequate, hand signals can help reduce noise. • Ensure staff do not shout or whistle to get the attention of the driver. • Make sure the driver knows the precise location of the delivery point and is aware of any local access issues. • Make sure the delivery point is ready for the vehicle before it arrives. Gates and doors should be open to avoid the vehicle idling. • Ensure the delivery point and surrounding areas are clear of obstructions so vehicles can manoeuvre easily. • Ensure delivery-bay doors, gates and roll-up doors are well maintained to minimize noise when they are opened and closed. • Service any delivery equipment in advance to minimize noise. • Think about how to minimize contact between hard surfaces, particularly metal on metal, during the unloading/loading processes. For example, use rubber matting and buffering material between surfaces. v V • Keep doors other than the delivery door closed to ensure noise does not escape. • Where possible, prepare all returns, empty packaging, recycling and skids behind closed doors. Check that items are in the correct condition, loading position and at the right height before taking them out to your vehicle. This will minimize outdoor noise. Tips for drivers to reduce noise during deliveries • Plan ahead so you know where to find the exact delivery point and how to access it. • If you arrive early, do not wait near residential buildings. If possible, turn off the engine. • As you approach the site and manoeuvre your vehicle into position, be aware of the effect that noise can have on local residents. • Reduce air-brake noise as much as possible. • If possible, avoid backing up during deliveries to reduce the use of back-up alarm devices. As an alternative, where practicable, deliver curbside. • Where practical, notify staff at the delivery point ahead of your arrival so they can be ready for you. • Only use your horn during emergencies. • Do not whistle or shout to get the attention of store employees. • Talk quietly. Outside at night, voices carry a long distance. • Turn off the engine when not manoeuvring. Try to minimize repeated start-ups and over-revving. • Turn off refrigeration equipment before you arrive at the delivery point when possible. • If your radio is on, keep the cab windows closed.

If rolling kegs to the delivery point, use rubber matting. Consider using a dolly with pneumatic tires to move from the vehicle to the delivery point. • Quietly close vehicle doors. t Y'�6 ht':^ ,' .'t' $T+e, Y,'Ptd,�^' t :lr r' i + Y y r'f i 6 i ' .-11ESOURCES ._ -:r•*c�.-§4-^+4'i' w r?W?`es�'�.+ .,. ... 5.:-,:<�. .,_- .. t ,..as "i�. ..y_n a?.< ,mol . r.:,As for Customer Service Staff It is a good idea to provide a list of common OPD questions and answers to municipal staff, such as 311 customer service representatives, that interact directly with the public.

Where will the Off-Peak Deliveries Pilot take place? MTO is encouraging all Games host municipalities to voluntarily adopt an OPD as part of their own transportation demand-management strategy during the Games. How will noise related to night-time deliveries be managed? Industry participants will be encouraged to adhere to a code of practice to help mitigate noise during operations. The code of practice outlines noise mitigation measures for carriers, drivers and receivers. What role will the municipality play? Interested municipalities will develop an OPD pilot suitable for each jurisdiction then will seek appropriate municipal approvals for the pilot. For example, your municipality may wish to apply reasonable discretion in the enforcement of noise bylaws and continue monitoring noise complaints related to deliveries. ; ' h 'p'k is k Y S h g t ..

The four-week pilot was focused within the downtown Toronto area, where there is a high concentration of deliveries, traffic and several planned TORONTO 2015 Pan Am/Parapan Am Games venues. More than 30 businesses including five major carriers participated in the project. As part of the pilot, carriers tracked travel and delivery times between home base and their customers for two weeks during a business-as-usual or daytime period. Carriers then switched to off-peak hours and delivered to those same customers and tracked the same information to capture travel and deliverytime savings. Carriers, receivers and drivers were surveyed at the erid of the pilot to gather their opinions on the effectiveness of OPD. To capture the impact OPD had on residents, the City of Toronto monitored the number of noise complaints within the downtown pilot zone. Pilot results The pilot was a success. Most "I believe that our partnership during the OPD pilot was businesses and carriers that participated successful, and we need to continue down this road in the reported satisfaction with the pilot ; future. Operating in off-peak was beneficial for our operation results.

For a few short weeks, Ontario will take centre stage for athletic competition. During this time, it will not be "business as usual". The right transportation plan will balance the needs of Games participants and Ontarians, so we can all get where we need to be. 7 Goal is to help all partners: 1. Get athletes, officials and media to events safely and on time. Create a safe, accessible and positive travel experience for spectators. Transportation is Critical For Athletes Safe and reliable transportation to ensure athletes arrive prepared to give their best. For Spectators • Seamless and accessible travel across jurisdictions to show that Ontario is a great event destination. For Businesses • Keeping goods and employees moving to capitalize on new opportunities and maintain productivity. For Residents • Ensure residents can continue to carry out daily activities such as work, shopping and recreation. For Ontario • Elevate the region's reputation for hosting world-class events. he 4Rs for Games Travel Minimize the need to travel Allowing employees to telework Shift travel to Shift driving trips times with less to other modes congestion Allowing flexible work hours Encouraging employees to take transit or bike to work Shift travel to routes with less congestion Helping customers avoid road closures or parking restrictions This is not a one -size -fits -all exercise.

Many municipalities restrict deliveries between certain hours. The City of Toronto has a bylaw that prohibits "noise as a result of deliveries" between 11 pm and 7am. The 2015 Pan/Parapan American Games provides a unique opportunity to implement an OPD Pilot. MTO developed a two -phased pilot to test applicability of OPD in Ontario and help address Games -time transportation challenges. Phase One (August 2014): small-scale pilot in Toronto's downtown core. Phase Two (July, August 2015): coincides with the Games. For the purposes of this pilot, off-peak hours refers to anytime between 7pm and 6am. phase One: Background Location: Downtown Toronto Core (Bloor to Lakeshore, Dufferin to DVP) Length of Pilot: 4 weeks in August 2014 Data collected: Noise impacts Travel time Participant's experiences Partners/Participants: City of Toronto 5 carriers 30+ businesses (customers of carriers) Phase One: Noise Measured background and delivery -related noise at select delivery locations during business -as -usual and off-peak hours. At most of the downtown delivery locations the "urban hum" or background noise was enough to mask the majority of noise generated by delivery activity. In quieter neighbourhoods, noise related to deliveries was low enough to likely not disturb nearby residents. City of Toronto monitored 311 for any complaints related to deliveries during the pilot. No delivery -related noise complaints were received during the pilot.

(The slowest travel times occurs between 7am-10am and 3pm-7pm). Data reported by industry participants showed almcst all carriers noted some travel time savings from/to their distribution center (Whitby or Brampton). 2 carriers saw travel time savings of up to one hour. E3ased on an analysis of a sample of routes, MTO determined travel time savings from shifting to OPD could produce a financial savings for carriers. Due to the limited sample size and pilot period, MTO could not identify impacts on: Travel time savings associated with deliveries (from one delivery to another). Travel time savings for all road users. Extent of broader impacts of OPD (e.g., environmental savings) OPD Advantages Lower traffic volumes on provincial highways showed the greatest potential to decrease the travel time as it impacts the first and last legs of a carriers journey (e.g., warehouse to the first stop/ last stop to warehouse). Loading bays and freight elevators were not as busy in the off-peak hours, which offered the potential to decrease time spent at the delivery point. Drivers perceived Tess traffic, an increased ease in driving around and a decrease in driving -related stress. Increased availability of parking resulted in greater options for drivers to unload, along with the identified reduction in parking tickets. Increased productivity for businesses, as receiving staff could be brought in early to stock shelves before store opening. OPD Challenges Change management is difficult: Some carriers experienced an increase in customer complaints due to confusion amongst receivers around delivery times. For drivers and receiving staff who are accustom to daytime shifts, the switch to night shifts can be difficult. Operational adjustments may be required to adjust to changes in the work environment, e.g.: Retro reflective clothing and auxiliary lighting may be needed for curbside deliveries at night. Late hours and dark street may increase a drivers risk for unfavorable encounters with strangers. Carriers who have drivers collect money from receivers may want to find alternate collection options. Operating off-peak does not guarantee decreased travel times. Travel time between downtown stores have high volumes of intersections and traffic signals which reduces traffic speed. Some off-peak time periods on the provincial highway and city streets may still carry high volumes of traffic. Phase Two - Outline Location: City of Toronto and other volunteer municipal partners Length of Pilot: Games time (and potentially 2 weeks before the Games and up to 1 month after the Games) Objective: Support the Games: Alleviate network pressures in localized areas as a single component of the greater TDM strategy being implemented for the Games. MTO will actively educate on, and promote uptake of the OPD pilot to municipalities and industry. Support OPD policy analysis: Obtain additional data on benefits and experiences with OPD from interested municipal partners to inform Post -Games analysis. Municipal Toolkit Outreach To assist municipalities who may be considering OPD as part of their TDM plans, a municipal toolkit is underway, to share MTO's experiences and lessons learned. MTO will meet with appropriate staff from each Games host municipality in order to discuss OPD and its potential implementation for the Games. MTO will offer each municipality assistance with OPD right up to Games time and share valuable information obtained through the pilot with participating municipalities. Industry Outreach MTO will continue to encourage businesses and carriers to shift to off-peak deliveries during the Games. MTO will also be requesting voluntary data sharing and participation in interviews as part of the pilot. A key factor for success in Phase Two will be finding willing municipal and business participants. ntact infor Questions Matthew Velma!!

Diodati and Members of Municipal Council SUBMITTED BY: Clerks Department SUBJECT: CD-2015-02 2014 Municipal and School Board Elections - Accessibility RECOMMENDATION That Council receive this report for information. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY During the preparations for the 2014 Municipal Elections, efforts were made to have all aspects of the election accessible to all candidates and eligible electors. When conducting an accessible election, attention was focused on providing barrier-free voting places, improvements to the ballots, accessible tools for marking the ballot, additional resources and staffing at the voting places, enhanced training initiatives and increased communications to the electorate and candidates. BACKGROUND This report fulfills requirement 12.1(2) of the Municipal Elections Act, 1996, as amended (MEA) that states "within 90 days after voting day in a regular election the Clerk shall submit a report to council about the identification, removal and prevention of barriers that affect electors and candidates with disabilities." ANALYSIS/RATIONALE For the 2014 Municipal Elections, the following initiatives were undertaken to assist candidates and electors with disabilities: Voting Places A review and assessment of all facilities were conducted prior to designating them as polling places. As has been the practice since 2000, a consultation took place with the City's Accessibility Advisory Committee prior to the determination of voting places. A post-election meeting with the Committee will occur, as has been our standard practice. An accessibility checklist was developed and used by election staff in conducting site visits. Each facility was checked for: barrier-free parking, barrier-free path of travel from 2 CD-2015-02 January 13, 2015 the parking lot/sidewalk, door operators or accessible doors, and adequate lighting. Photographs and measurements were taken as part of the site inspections. Places that were not accessible were either rejected as locations, or modifications were made to the facility or procedures associated with the location. If it was not feasible to make modifications, voting places were relocated or merged with other voting places in the vicinity. Under the Act, the Clerk has an obligation to "establish the number and location of voting places for an election as he or she considers most convenient for the electors". One of our considerations is accessibility, and not just in the barrier-free sense of the word. Staff is mindful of not having locations too geographically dispersed. Although the majority of voters will show up to the polls in automobiles, staff tries to ensure that people could walk to the poll, if necessary. In all, thirty-eight (38) voting locations were used on Election Day, plus an additional fifteen (15) locations at retirement/ nursing homes and hospital, as mandated under the Art Thera w ra alcn civ (F) Inratinnc i icari fnr ori_ianrc Vntinr, nvcr M fiuc Hay ncrinrl leading up to Election Day. Essentially, there were fifty-nine (59) locations used in all when all locations and times were considered. Some municipalities have employed "super polls" and City staff will consult with them on their experience. It should be noted that a "super poll" is using a single location for multiple polling stations. We have a number of these locations already. The determination of a "super poll" comes down to adequate size and parking to accommodate the number of voters, and election staff, that the poll will process. A "super poll" does not mean less election workers and it should be noted that the cost of locations is relatively nominal. Schools, for example, are mandated to provide their facilities to municipalities, at no cost. Unfortunately, this past election saw difficulties with the use of schools. Often locations for voting within schools was a considerable distance from parking lots and often entrance via the front doors was denied due to safety concerns, yet voters were often forced to negotiate through students during recess. As with each election, the Area Clerks will request that the school boards employ a Professional Development day on Voting Day 2018. On Election Day, election workers were instructed to verify the accessibility of the voting place using a checklist for accessible customer service. Specific initiatives included: • Additional portable disabled parking signs were erected at some polling places. 3 CD-2015-02 January 13, 2015 • Identifying and signing disable washrooms where none were marked, as well as providing directional signage to the washrooms. • School Boards, principles, facility managers, etc. were advised of deficiencies for voting day and asked to remedy them. • Deputy Returning Officers were given lists of potential deficiencies at their locations and asked to address them prior to the opening of polls. • Additional seating was provided in the voting place for elderly and disabled electors in order to make them comfortable as they completed paperwork and/or to allow them to rest. • Additional directional signage was placed on the boulevards and entrances to voting places to make the locations more easily identifiable. • The City's Building Inspectors and By-law Officers visited all of the voting places throughout the day providing additional signs and supplies as required. • Clerks Staff circulated the City throughout the day to ensure the accessibility of sites, and remedy concerns. • Additional election day staff were hired to work as greeters at entrances to visually monitor any accessibility concerns, assist with doors and elevators and help with parking congestion. Ballots The ballots for all races were again designed to include red ovals for marking. The ovals were drawn with thicker, darker red lines to allow them to be more visible by the voter. The colour red was chosen as to not jeopardize the marking process, since the optical ballot readers do not scan the colour red, thus allowing only the voters intended mark to be counted. Overall, this makes the ballot easier to read. In addition, the printed font on all ballots was made as large as possible given page and space parameters. The font, Arial 12, is a recommended font for communication to people with visual difficulties. All election communications were consistent with the Arial font. Voting instructions, with illustrations, were affixed inside each of the voting screens to assist voters in understanding how to mark their ballots. The ballots also have visual depictions helping explain how to vote. Voter Notification Cards included the wheelchair symbol encouraging those with mobility issues to vote at various advanced poll locations, which had greater barrier-free accessibility. 4 CD-2015-02 January 13, 2015 Tools & Equipment As has been the case for the last four elections, various sized magnifying sheets were available at all voting places to assist electors with the visibility issues. Pens and not pads were also available at the polls to assist in communication with electors who were deaf, deafened, or hard of hearing. In 2010, a touch screen vote tabulator for the visually impaired was employed for election purposes. Unfortunately, there were too many technical issues with it and a substantial rental fee. The machine resulted in only one cast vote associated with it. As a result, staff did not make such provision for this past election. Election staff will continue to monitor technological developments that will help the voting process and are not cost prohibitive. Election day staff was instructed that in cases where an elector with a disability was unable to attend a voting place, he or she may have appointed another person to act on their behalf. Proxy forms were available up to, and including, Election Day. Additional Resources and Staff In concurrence with the City's Customer Accessibility policy, support persons and service animals were welcomed in all voting places. A support person assisting an elector was required to take an oath, stating his/her commitment to confidentiality, and confirming that he or she would mark the ballot as directed by the elector. Election personnel were also available at the polls to assist a voter in casting his/her ballot. The election worker, in consultation with the person with the disability, determined the level of assistance required by the elector, and the best way to provide that assistance. Additional election day workers were hired this year to facilitate locations where further assistance may have been required, ie. to operate an elevator, assist with heavy doors or to simply offer their assistance. In total, 346 workers were used across the City at various locations for the 2014 elections, an increase of 20 workers from 2010. Training Election staff was trained on accessibility requirements, serving individuals with disabilities, and on special services available to assist electors. Specific procedures and the City of Niagara Falls Accessible Customer Service brochures were provided to each election worker as reference i i Iateriais. Election Day Workers were sought out in designated voting places with a view to having personnel on hand who knew the voting places intimately, and who knew how to respond in the event of an emergency, or where there were accessibility challenges. 5 CD-2015-02 January 13, 2015 Procedural changes were made to permit Deputy Returning Officers to take ballots to electors who were unable to leave their vehicles or to take ballots to another location within the voting place. Provided voting opportunities on the premises of 15 Senior/Retirement Homes within the City, along with the hospital, considered to be an institution in which 20 or more beds were occupied by persons who are disabled, chronically ill or infirmed and/or any retirement homes in which 50 or more beds are occupied. FINANCIAL/STAFFING/LEGAL IMPLICATIONS Municipalities are obligated to report within 90 days of voting day on the identification, removal and prevention of barriers that affect electors and candidates with disabilities. This report fulfils the obligation and will be sent to the Ministry of Municipal Affairs & Housing. CITY'S STRATEGIC COMMITMENT Ensuring barrier free accessibility in the community.

Diodati and Members of Municipal Council SUBMITTED BY: Finance SUBJECT: 2015-01 Monthly Tax Receivables Report— November 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 November 30, 2014 were $23.1 million compared to $22.6 million in 2013. During November, tax receivables as a percentage of taxes billed increased slightly from 13.3% in 2013 to 13.4% in 2014. The City's finance staff has had continued success in resolving properties that are subject to registration for 2014. At this stage, 89.2% of properties have developed payment arrangements or have paid in full. There are currently seventeen 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 November 30, 2014 are $23.1 million. This represents an increase from $22.6 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 shows that the taxes owing from the commercial property class has decreased from a year ago, whereas the residential property class has increased. 2 F-2015-01 January 27, 2015 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 eleven months of activity. This table shows 89.2% of the tax accounts or 347 properties have been paid in full or the owners have made suitable payment arrangements. During November, thirteen accounts were paid in full. In addition, the number of accounts with suitable payment arrangements including full payments increased from 89.0% (October) to 89.2% (November). 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 November, there was no change to the number of registered properties. The outstanding taxes for registered properties represents 6.9% of the total outstanding taxes at month end. FINANCIAL/STAFFING/LEGAL IMPLICATIONS Tax arrears as a percentage of taxes billed in a year is a performance measure that stakeholders utilize to analyse an organization's financial strengths. Niagara Falls, due to its high reliance on commercial assessment, is traditionally higher compared to municipalities of similar size. The percentage of taxes outstanding to taxes billed as at November 30, 2014 is 13.4% which is a slight increase from 2013's value of 13.3%. The municipality has a record of full collection and earns significant penalty revenues to offset the higher measure.

Diodati and Members of Municipal Council SUBMITTED BY: Finance SUBJECT: 2015-03 2015 Interim Tax Levy RECOMMENDATION That Council approve the 2015 Interim Tax Levy calculation and by-law providing for the 2015 Interim Tax Levy. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Corporation of the City of Niagara Falls requires a 2015 interim tax levy so as to provide the City with operating cash flow and to meet its statutory obligations for collecting taxes on behalf of the Region of Niagara and the local school boards. The statutory requirement of the City is to provide quarterly payments to both the Region of Niagara and the local school boards. The interim levy is calculated so that property owners will be billed amounts not exceeding one half of the previous year's annual taxes. The installment dates for the Interim Levy are February 27th and April 30th BACKGROUND The Municipal Act 2001 provides the City of Niagara Falls with the authority to issue an interim tax levy. Traditionally the interim levy has been made in February with two installment dates. The City of Niagara Falls requires a 2015 interim tax levy so as to provide the City with operating cash flow and to meet its statutory obligations for collecting taxes on behalf of the Region of Niagara and the local school boards. The statutory requirement of the City is to provide quarterly payments to both the Region of Niagara and the local school boards. ANALYSIS/RATIONALE The authority to collect this interim tax levy is prescribed in section 317 of the Municipal Act. The interim levy is subject to the following rules: 1 . The amount levied on a property shall not exceed the prescribed percentage, or 50 percent if no percentage is prescribed, of the total amount of taxes for municipal and school purposes levied on the property for the previous year. 2 F-2015-03 January 27, 2015 2. The percentage used in the levy may be different for different classes but must be the same for all properties in a property class. 3. Allows the municipality to use an entire years taxes for a property in the calculation of the interim tax levy in the situation that a full year was not charged in the previous year. Staff has developed the interim tax levy based on these rules and has determined that the amount due for the interim levy for each property will not exceed 50% of the annualized assessment used in determining the 2014 tax levy. The due dates for this interim tax levy are in accordance with the new Municipal Act. The interim bill will be due on two dates. As per the regulations outlined in the new Municipal Act, property owners must be provided 21 days notice before payment. The due dates are consistent with the regulation and will be February 27, 2015 and April 30, 2015. In 2014, these dates were February 28, 2014 and April 30, 2014. An interim levvina by-law is required to establish the amount of the interim levy. This has been prepared and appears on this evening's Council Agenda for passage. FINANCIAL/STAFFING/LEGAL IMPLICATIONS The internal need for cash flow and the external statutory obligation necessitate the interim tax levy. Failure to provide an interim tax levy could lead to increased short term borrowing by the Corporation and could result in unplanned interest expenses. An interim tax levy is required to ensure the provision of the required funds to minimize borrowing costs. firtN(21/), Recommended by: Todd Harrison, Director Fina ce Respectfully submitted: Ken Todd, Chief Administrative Officer A.

That the City enter into a Licence Agreement with The Niagara Parks Commission ("NPC"), with respect to the use of the interior of the schoolhouse, washroom facilities and parking lot located on the NPC lands, for the purpose of operating a historical museum known as the Willoughby Historical Museum located at 9935 Niagara River Parkway, Niagara Falls. 2. That the Mayor and Clerk be authorized to execute said Licence Agreement. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The following are the terms and conditions of the Licence Agreement: Premises: Interior of the schoolhouse and use of the washroom facilities and parking lot. Term: Three years commencing January 1, 2015. Consideration: Nominal ($1.00) annually. BACKGROUND In August of 2014, Council approved Report No. L-2014-15, a copy of which is attached hereto, with respect to a Licence Agreement with NPC for the Willoughby Historical Museum. Subsequently, negotiations with NPC resulted in certain minor amendments to the Licence and, accordingly, a new Execution By-law will be presented for the amended Licence. ANALYSIS/RATIONALE The proposed Licence will ensure the continued operation of the Willoughby Historical Museum, involving the display and maintenance of historical objects, the re-enacting of historical events, and the education of the general public with respect to the history of the people and events of Niagara. 2 L-2015-01 January 27, 2015 CITY'S STRATEGIC COMMITMENT The City's operation of the Willoughby Historical Museum is in keeping with its Public Art Policy as well as Council's commitment to customer service exceiience and the creation of a well planned City.

Diodati and Members of the Municipal Council The recommendation{s} City of Niagara Falls, Ontario contained in this report were adopted by City Council SUBMITTED BY: Legal Services SUBJECT: L-2014-15 The Niagara Parks Commission and the City License Agreement Willoughby Historical Museum Our File No. 2005-29 RECOMMENDATION That the City approve a new License with The Niagara Parks Commission ("NPC") with respect to the licencing of its building for the purposes of the Willoughby Historical Museum, located at 9935 Niagara Parkway, Niagara Falls ("premises"), and that the Mayor and Clerk be authorized to execute such License Agreement. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The following are the terms and conditions of the new License Agreement: • Non-exclusive License for use of the building located on the premises • Five year term ending on December 31, 2019 • Nominal annual consideration ($1.00) This Agreement is amended to provide clarity of the responsibilities of both parties. BACKGROUND The Willoughby Historical Museum was established in 1967 in a former one-room red brick schoolhouse (1916-1957) at the intersection of the Niagara Parkway and Weaver Road, approximately four kilometres south of the Village of Chippawa. The City has historically licensed this facility from the NPC for the License of the premises known as the Willoughby Historical Museum, which premises included the maintenance to the museum itself, which has historically been undertaken by the City, and the repairs and maintenance to the washroom facilities, parking lot and grounds, which have historically been undertaken by the NPC. This proposed License will now more accurately reflect the responsibilities of the parties, including the NPC's agreement to maintain and repair the roof at their sole cost and expense. August 12, 2014 - 2 - L-2014-15 ANALYSIS/RATIONALE The proposed License will ensure the continued public use of the lands for recreational purposes. FINANCIAL/LEGAL IMPLICATIONS There is a historical maintenance cost associated with the ongoing operation of this facility. CITY'S STRATEGIC COMMITMENT The City's operation of the Willoughby Historical Museum is in keeping with its Strategic Plan for the provision of Recreation and Culture and is supported by the City's Public Art Policy. As well, the proposed transaction is in keeping with the Council's commitment to customer service excellence, organizational efficiency and effectiveness, and the creation of a well planned City. i A Recommended by: Ken Beaman, City Solicitor Respectfully submitted: Ken Todd, Chief Administrative Officer S6 L-2015-03 Niagararalls January 27, 2015 REPORT TO: Mayor James M. Diodati and Members of Municipal Council SUBMITTED BY: Legal Services SUBJECT: L-2015-03 Lot Grading By-law Amendment Our File No, 2007-338 RECOMMENDATION That By-law No. 2007-260 of the City of Niagara Falls be amended by deleting section 34 therefrom and that the by-law in all other respects continue and remain in full force and effect. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Amendment of the Municipal Act causes deletion of section 34 of the by-law, to be desirable. BACKGROUND Section 34 of By-law No. 2007-260 of the City of Niagara Falls provides for an Appeal to the Ontario Municipal Board of a Decision of the Director of Municipal Works. Such an Appeal was available at one time. However, the Municipal Act has been amended and an Appeal to the Ontario Municipal Board is no longer possible. Although the by-law has a "saving" clause which provides that the balance of the by-law would remain in force even if section 34 were found to be beyond the powers of the municipality, out of an abundance of caution, it is recommended that this housekeeping amendment be undertaken. CITY'S STRATEGIC COMMITMENT The proposed amendment is in keeping with Council's commitment to organizational efficiency and effectiveness. Recommended by: Ken Beaman, City Solicitor Respectfully submitted: p Y Ken Todd, Chief Administrative Officer KB MW-2015-01 Niagaraflalls January 27th, 2015 REPORT TO: Mayor James M. Diodati and Members of the Municipal Council City of Niagara Falls, Ontario SUBMITTED BY: Municipal Works SUBJECT: MW-2015-01 Combined Sewer Overflow & Wet Weather Management Policy Applications to Niagara Region for Funding RECOMMENDATION That Staff be directed to submit an application to the Niagara Region for Capital Works projects identified in this report. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Niagara Region allocates funding in their Capital Budget each year to assist Local Area Municipalities in their efforts to mitigate the impacts of wet weather events on municipal wastewater collection systems and bypasses into the natural environment. The funding is awarded on an application basis. Project eligibility and allocations are evaluated by an independent working group who rank applications based on their ability to eliminate, reduce or control the identified problem. Applications must be accompanied by a resolution of Council endorsing its commitment to the project and submitted before the deadline of January 30th, 2015. The purpose of this report is to inform Council of the funding program and to seek authorization to submit the applications for the eleven (11) Capital projects listed in this report. The required resolution has also been included as part of the Council agenda. BACKGROUND The City of Niagara Falls has a well-documented history of chronic basement flooding and sewage discharges into the natural environment however over the past decade has made great strides to correct and reduce the impacts on public and private property during normal wet weather events. Recently, changes have been made to the Niagara Region's program (formerly CSO-MAP) which will provide more opportunity to advance solutions that suit the particular needs of the municipality. For example, in Niagara Falls we are continuing our efforts to separate the storm drainage and sanitary sewage in our combined sewer network as well as implementing other end-of-pipe solutions (like storage tanks) where the situation best fits. The new funding eligibility criteria now includes up to 60% subsidy for source control projects on private property which the City has been implementing through its own Weeping tile Removal Program Assistance Program (WRAP). A copy of the policy and funding eligibility criteria is attached for your review. January 27, 2015 - 2 - MW-2015-01 ANALYSIS/RATIONALE Eligible projects must be completed within three (3) years and must commence within one (1) year of approval. Staff has developed the following list of candidate projects for consideration based on the age, condition and performance of the existing infrastructure and their ability to meet the funding criteria. They can be categorized as follows; Sewer Separation Projects • Balmoral Ave./Maureen Cr./Timothy Cr. (Construction) • Fifth Ave. - Bridge St. to north limit (Construction) • Sixth Ave. — Bridge St. to north limit (Construction) • Clare Cr. — Brookfield Ave. to Coach Dr. (Design) • Fourth Ave. — Morrison St. to Bridge St. (Design) • Peer St. — Main to Grey/Grey Ave. — Peer to Robinson (Design) • Second Ave. — Morrison St. to Huron St. (Design) • Third Ave. — Morrison St. to Maple St. (Design) • Third Ave. — Hamilton St. to north limit (Design) End of Pipe Projects • Riverview Park CSO Storage Tanks (Construction) Source Control Projects • 2015 WRAP Program FINANCIAL /i ErAI !MPLI(CATIONS Funding commitments for the City's share of the identified projects will be considered during the 2015 Capital Budget deliberations. The City will be required to sign and execute a standard cost sharing agreement once the final funding has been confirmed. The estimated cost to complete the projects included in this year's application totals $9,030,370, of which $6,557,370 (72.6%) is funded from the City and $2,473,000 (27.4%) is funded by Niagara Region. CITY'S STRATEGIC COMMITMENT The recommendations are consistent with the Council's Strategic Priority to achieve the goal of infrastructure sustainability. LIST OF ATTACHMENTS 1.

This policy facilitates the shared funding of strategic, prioritized, and coordinated solutions that mitigate the impacts of wet weather events on municipal sanitary systems and the environment. The policy acknowledges the joint responsibility and shared role of the municipalities (Local Area Municipalities and the Niagara Region) in their efforts to timely eliminate, reduce, and report on the CSO's and wet weather flow as they negatively impact the health, safety, environment, and economy of Niagara. The policy promotes the "Optimal Solution", including the best return on investment, independent of ownership and partnership share between the municipalities for the benefit of all.

GUIDING PRINCIPLES 1. This applies to municipal projects for private side source control. It also applies to municipal systems themselves. 2. Project eligibility and funding percentages will be evaluated and established by the Policy Review Working Group. The ranking system for design and construction works will be based on the following order of priorities: 1. Elimination 2. Reduction 3. Control. 3, Applications will be approved subject to the following; • For a multi-year project, annual project applications are required for each new planning, design, construction or program phase, related to that funding request. • Funding is net of all third party funding, such that the Region and the Local Area Municipality benefit equally from any third party contributions. • Funding is for new projects; previously completed projects or projects that have already been started are not eligible. • Unless initiated within one year of approval, the funding allocation will lapse and a new application must be submitted. • Projects must be completed within three years of approval by Regional Council. Where a project is not completed within the three years, written notice must be provided to the Region, in advance of the deadline, and extensions for continued funding may be granted on a case-by-case basis. 4. The applicant will initiate, and make available, plans in support of projects including; PPCP, I&I and other relevant investigative studies. All future projects will be required to be supported by a recommendation within these studies.

Recommendations will be brought forward to Regional Council for consideration and approval subject to budget availability for the parties to execute the project agreement. DEFINITIONS Combined Sewers are sewers that are designed to contain both wastewater and stormwater runoff in a single pipe system. The term combined sewers includes sewers that are partially separated; the storm portion has been separated but the roof leaders or foundation drains still contribute stormwater inflow to the sewer system conveying sanitary flows. Combined Sewer Overflow (CSO) refers to the overflow of sewage to the natural environment from a combined sewer. During dry weather and small wet weather events (rainfall and snowmelt), combined sewers are designed to transport all flows to a treatment plant. During larger wet weather events the volume of storm water entering the combined sewer system may exceed the capacity of the combined sewer or the treatment plant. When this happens, combined sewers were typically designed to allow a portion of the untreated combined wastewater to overflow into the nearest stream, river or lake. Basement flooding can also result from surcharged sewers. Nia araRe ion CORPORATE POLICY Policy number le applied by IMS g• following policy approval SECTION NAME OF POLICY Public Works—Water and Wastewater Combined Sewer Overflow Control « Wet Weather Management Policy Page 4 of 4 Studies assess the capacity and performance of the wastewater system for both dry weather and wet weather conditions. The study will identify infrastructure constraints, recommend modifications to the system, and estimate overflows to the environment using computer models of the system calibrated using flow monitoring and precipitation data. CSO Studies include but are not limited to Pollution Prevention Control Plans, Inflow and Infiltration Studies, Flow Monitoring, and Extraneous Flow Studies. Projects that are undertaken to minimize the occurrence of overflows, and/or basement flooding. Projects that are eligible for funding under this Policy include, but are not limited to: sewer separation, source control, real time control, end of pipe, repair/rehabilitation/replacement of sewers. PBD-2015-01 NiagaraaalIs January 27, 2015 REPORT TO: Mayor James M. Diodati and Members of Municipal Council SUBMITTED BY: Planning, Building & Development SUBJECT: PBD-2015-01 Matters Arising from Municipal Heritage Committee Heritage Recognition Award Program RECOMMENDATION That Council support the creation of the City of Niagara Falls Municipal Heritage Recognition Award to be awarded annually by the Municipal Heritage Committee, recognizing the contribution of a heritage property owner to the preservation of heritage in the City. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Part of the Municipal Heritage Committee's mandate is to promote the City's heritage. In order to fulfill this, the Committee would like to recognize property owners in the City who have enhanced the quality of life in Niagara Falls through demonstrated commitment to the preservation of a heritage building, structure or property. Cultural and built heritage are valuable to the City as they provide a sense of identity through knowledge and memory and help to contribute to the quality of life in the City. Heritage buildings can be adapted for today's needs as demonstrated by the City who restored the former Stamford Township Hall into a landmark History Museum. Many private property owners have also restored their homes and preserved the buildings so that they can continue to be actively used. BACKGROUND Conservation is an umbrella term for the protection of historic places in Canada. Conservation can be further described as all actions or processes aimed at safeguarding the character-defining elements of an historic place to retain its heritage value and extend its physical life. In order to recognize those property owners who have conserved the heritage of their land, buildings or structures through preservation, rehabilitation, restoration or similar means, the Municipal Heritage Committee (MHC) is proposing a Heritage Recognition Awards Program. 2 PBD-2015-01 January 27, 2015 A property may be eligible for the award program because of its architectural style, association with a historic person or event, or is a significant landscape. All properties in the City of Niagara Falls are eligible, meaning, the property is not required to be listed on the Municipal Register of Heritage Properties, nor designated under the Ontario Heritage Act in order to be eligible. Eligible properties should have been preserved, rehabilitated, restored or conserved, either in whole or in part, during the previous 36 months. The Award will be issued for those properties which the MHC determines have satisfied a demonstrated commitment to the preservation of the City's cultural heritage, through investment of time, energy or financial resources. Nominations will be made in this first year by the MHC, but thereafter, will be received by the MHC from the general community and may be submitted by an individual, group or corporation for any property worthy of a Heritage Recognition Award. The non-monetary award will be given out at the Annual Heritage Info Event held during Heritage week (February 16-23, 2015). AN A`VcIcIDTApr MAI .n a Part of the Municipal Heritage Committee's mandate is to promote the City's heritage. In order to fulfill this, the Committee would like to recognize property owners in the City who have enhanced the quality of life in Niagara Falls through demonstrated commitment to the preservation of a heritage building, structure or property. The following questions will be used to determine if a property is eligible for recognition: Restoration: Does the project reveal, recover or represent the state of an historic place or of an individual component, as it appeared at a particular period in its history, as accurately as possible, while protecting its heritage value? Preservation: Does the project protect, maintain or stabilize the existing form, material and integrity of an historic place or of an individual component while protecting its heritage value? Rehabilitation: Is the project a sensitive adaptation of an historic place or of an individual component for a continuing or compatible contemporary use, while protecting its heritage value? Landscape: Does the project recognize the promotion, restoration or new design of heritage open spaces, sites, monuments and trails? 3 PBD-2015-01 January 27, 2015 FINANCIAL/STAFFING/LEGAL IMPLICATIONS None.

Diodati and Members of Municipal Council SUBMITTED BY: Planning, Building & Development SUBJECT: PBD-2015-02 Telecommunication Facility Consultation 3516 Marshall Road Fontur International on behalf of Signum Wireless RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that Industry Canada be advised that the City of Niagara Falls has no objection to the construction of a 60 metre (196 ft.) self-supporting telecommunication structure with an equipment shelter at its base and perimeter security fencing on the lands known as 3516 Marshall Road. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The proposal to erect a 60 metre (196 ft.) self-supporting telecommunication tower on the lands known as 3516 Marshall Road can be supported based on the following: • the proposal is within the agricultural area on a property not currently being farmed and is located an appropriate distance from neighbouring residences and the Niagara River Parkway; and • the self-supported tower is set well back from Marshall Road and will support the co-location of services for wireless carriers. BACKGROUND Fontur International Inc. is the agent for Signum Wireless who has proposed a telecommunication tower on a property located on the southwest intersection of Willoughby Drive and Marshall Road. The 3 ha (7.4 ac) property is zoned Rural (A) in accordance with By-law No. 395, 1965 and currently contains an auto wrecking business. The tower and related radio equipment shelter will be located 76 metres (250 ft.) south of Marshall Road and 140 metres (460 ft.) west of Willoughby Drive within the fenced compound area of the auto wrecking business. Industry Canada is responsible for the licensing and approval of telecommunication equipment and facilities. As part of the application process, proponents of new systems are required to consult with local municipalities and the public in accordance with local protocols. 2 PBD-2015-02 January 27, 2015 The City adopted a Consultation Process for Radio Telecommunication Facilities in July, 2008. The protocol requires the proponent of a facility to hold a public information meeting and to forward any written or oral concerns/issues received from the public to the City to form part of their deliberation of the proposal. If concerns have been raised, the method by which the proponent has dealt with it must also be forwarded to the City. The decision of Council serves as a written response to Industry Canada on behalf of the City for the proposal. ANALYSIS/RATIONALE As per the City's Consultation process, an information package and notice of the December 4, 2014 information meeting was sent to property owners located within three (3) times the height of the proposed installation (180 metres or 590 ft.) and advertised in Niagara This Week on November 5, 2014. The proponents have not received any written or oral comments or questions from the public. The location proposed for the tower is consistent with the siting criteria of the City's protocol for telecommunication towers. This tower is 1.2 km (0.75 miles) west of the Niagara Parkway, which is considered a scenic roadway, and would be visually buffered from the Parkway by a large Provincially Significant Wetland along the Marshall Road allowance. The nearest residence is located approximately 330 metres (1,082 ft.) to the nnrfhx.nrc=. t Tha city pInn ciIIhmitteri with the rrnnnncy el indi ute an exic+inn berm r r , between the tower compound and the westerly property line. According to the applicants, the proposed 60 metre tall self-supporting tower would provide the infrastructure needed for reliable coverage and capacity into residential areas along the Niagara Parkway, Sodom Road, Willoughby Drive and towards the Canada-USA border. The self-support lattice design of the tower allows for up to 4 different carriers to install their equipment on the tower. Other designs, such as monopole towers with flags, are more limited in terms of co-location. While monopoles may be more attractive, the advantage of the proposed design with its co-location capability is that fewer towers are needed to provide coverage in the area. The information package was circulated by Planning staff to other City Departments and no objections to the proposal were received. FINANCIAL/STAFF/LEGAL IMPLICATIONS There is no financial, staff or legal implications with the City as a result of the request for support of the telecommunication tower. CITY'S STRATEGIC COMMI T MEN T The proposal is supported by the Well Planned City Strategic Priority in that it provides telecommunication services in an area of the City which is currently underserviced. 3 PBD-2015-02 January 27, 2015 LIST OF ATTACHMENTS Appendix 1 — Location Map Appendix 2 — Site Plan ➢ Appendix 3 — Photo Simulation Recommended by: Alex Herlovitch, Director of Planning, Building & Development Respectfully submitted: 114t-iik-Ak Ken Todd, Chief Administrative Officer F.Berardi:mb Attach.

Diodati and Members of Municipal Council SUBMITTED BY: Planning, Building & Development SUBJECT: PBD-2015-03 DB-2014-004 Deeming By-law Application Lot 60, Plan 3 Village of Niagara Falls Now City of Niagara Falls 5645 Ferry Street Applicant: Portage Bakery RECOMMENDATION That Council pass the by-law appearing on tonight's agenda to deem Lot 60, Plan 3 Village of Niagara Falls (5645 Ferry Street), to no longer be within the registered plan of subdivision, to enable it to merge with Lot 61, Plan 3 except Part 1, Plan 59R-9032 (5845 Gladstone Avenue). EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Portage Bakery has requested that Council pass a Deeming By-law under the Planning Act for Lot 60, Plan 3 Village of Niagara Falls (5645 Ferry Street) to no longer be within the registered plan of subdivision to enable it to merge with the adjoining lands to the east, Lot 61 Plan 3 except Part 1, Plan 59R-9032 (5845 Gladstone Avenue) and become one parcel. The subject lands are zoned General Commercial (GC). The necessary deeming by-law is included in tonight's agenda. BACKGROUND Proposal Portage Bakery has submitted a request to deem Lot 60, Plan 3 Village of Niagara Falls (5645 Ferry Street) to no longer be within the registered plan of subdivision. This will allow the lands to merge with the adjoining lands to the east, Lot 61 Plan 3 except Part 1, Plan 59R-9032 (5845 Gladstone Avenue) and become one parcel. The subject lands are located on the northwest corner of Ferry Street and Gladstone Avenue. Refer to Schedule 1 for the location of the lands. ANALYSIS/RATIONALE The lands are zoned General Commercial (GC), in accordance with Zoning By-law No. 79-200. This zoning permits the lands to be developed for commercial purposes. Currently Portage Bakery exists on 5845 Gladstone Avenue and a commercial building is 2 PBD-2015-03 January 27, 2015 existing on 5645 Ferry Street. The applicant is proposing to replace a portion of the existing roof for the building municipally known as 5845 Gladstone Avenue. As the proposed roof will be approximately 0.64 metres from the westerly lot line, the applicant must provide a 2 hour non-combustible construction to comply with the Ontario Building Code (OBC) requirements. This has resulted in an increase in the cost of construction. The applicant is requesting to deem Lot 60, Plan 3 (5645 Ferry Street) to no longer be within the registered plan of subdivision as this will allow 5845 Gladstone Avenue to merge with 5645 Ferry Street. This will eliminate the lot lines and will allow the lands to be treated as one parcel. Once the lands are merged the applicant can proceed with standard construction which will be cost effective. A deeming by-law removes the special status granted to a whole lot within a registered plan of subdivision for the purpose of subdivision control under the Planning Act. The applicant's registration of the requested by-law would allow the legal merger of the subject lands. FINANCIAL/STAFFING/LEGAL IMPLICATIONS There are no financial implications. CITY'S STRATEGIC COMMITMENT The proposal proposa supports Councii's strategic priority of strengthening and promoting economic development in the City.

That Council approve the request and pass the by-law included in tonight's agenda to designate Block 74 on Registered Plan 59M-401, as exempt from Part Lot Control for a period of two years; and 2. That the developer be required to notify the City when the new deeds for the lots have been registered. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Kenmore Homes has requested that Council pass a by-law to exempt the land from being subject to Part Lot Control to allow the transfer of ownership of the six freehold townhouse units currently under construction on Block 74. The request can be supported based on the following: • the use of this Planning Act mechanism is an acceptable alternative to a consent because the block is located within a registered subdivision; • the by-law will permit a deed to be created for each townhouse dwelling unit and permit each property to be sold; and • the zoning permits the proposed parcel sizes. BACKGROUND Proposal Kenmore Homes has submitted a request to have Part Lot Control removed from Block 74 (7201 to 7229 Stacey Drive) in the Optimist plan of subdivision. The subject lands are illustrated on Schedule 1. The removal of Part Lot Control is a planning tool that is 2 PBD-2015-004 January 27, 2015 intended to allow minor boundary adjustments to lots and blocks within registered plans of subdivision. In this case, the removal of Part Lot Control is requested to allow the creation of separate parcels for each of the six on-street townhouse dwelling units that are under construction. Refer to Schedule 2 for further detail. ANALYSIS/RATIONALE The block of land is located within the Optimist plan of subdivision (59M-401) which was registered in 2013. The subdivision contains a mix of lots for single-detached dwellings and blocks of land for on-street and block townhouses. A Building Permit was issued in August, 2014 to permit the on-street townhouse dwellings to be constructed on the subject block of land. The proposed parcel configurations are shown on the attached reference plan (Schedule 2). The block is zoned Residential Mixed (R3-974) by Zoning By-law No. 79-200, as amended by By-law No. 2013-005. The proposed parcels comply with the zoning regulations regarding the lot size, lot frontage and number of units. The Zoning By-law permits a maximum of six on-street townhouse dwellings on Block 74. Part Lot Control provisions under the Planning Act prevent lands that are within a registered plan of subdivision from being LUILLe divided W:1LU.U1 d It id sever. Municipalities have the ability to exempt lots and blocks from Part Lot Control to allow lot lines to be reconfigured or part of a lot or block to be conveyed without a consent. Approval of the Part Lot Control by-law is required so that property lines can be created between the dwelling units to allow their sale with each unit having a separate deed. Part Lot Control has been requested to be lifted for two years to allow for flexibility in scheduling real estate closing dates and to consider market absorption of the units. This time period is acceptable given the amount of new residential development in the area. The developer should be required to notify the City when the new deeds have been created to assist in addressing and record keeping. FINANCIAL/STAFFING/LEGAL IMPLICATIONS Development charges were collected at the time of Building Permit issuance. CITY'S STRATEGIC COMMITMENT Council's priority is to strengthen and promote economic development in the City. The application is consistent with this priority. 3 PBD-2015-004 January 27, 2015 LIST OF ATTACHMENTS ➢ Schedule 1 — Location Map ➢ Schedule 2 — Proposed Lots Recommended by: &gy(‘`' ld20 Alex Herlovitch, Director of Planning, Building & Development Respectfully submitted: Ken Todd, Chief Administrative Officer A.Bryce:mb Attach.

That the applicant be required to notify the City when the new deeds for the parcels have been registered. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 1340258 Ontario Inc. has requested that Council pass a by-law to exempt Block 194 on Plan 59M-388 from being subject to Part Lot Control to allow the sale of the individual dwelling units in a four unit, on-street townhouse dwelling. Rear yard access easements for the middle two units and maintenance easements on the exterior portion of the end units are also being created through this process. The request can be supported based on the following: • the use of this Planning Act mechanism is an acceptable alternative to a consent because the block is located within a registered subdivision; • the zoning permits the proposed parcels sizes; and • the by-law will permit deeds to be created for each new parcel and permit them to be sold. BACKGROUND Proposal 1340258 Ontario Inc. has submitted a request to have Part Lot Control removed from Block 194 in the Warren Woods Phase 2 plan of subdivision. Block 194 is located on west side of 2 PBD-2015-05 January 27, 2015 Dogwood Crescent. A four unit, on-street townhouse dwelling has been constructed on the block. The dwelling is known as 8679-8685 Dogwood Crescent. The subject lands are illustrated on Schedule 1. The removal of Part Lot Control is a planning tool that is intended to allow the creation of separate parcels for each of the existing on-street townhouse dwelling units. Rear yard access easements for the middle two units and maintenance easements on the exterior portion of the end units are also being created through this process. Refer to Schedule 2 for further detail. ANALYSIS/RATIONALE The subject block is located within the Warren Woods Phase 2 plan of subdivision (59M- 388) which was registered in 2012. The subdivision contains a mix of lots for detached dwellings, semi-detached dwellings, and blocks of land for on-street townhouse and group townhouse dwellings. The subject block has an on-street townhouse dwelling (4 units) constructed thereon; the proposed parcels are shown on the attached reference plan (Schedule 2) to separate the 4 units. The subject block is zoned Residential Mixed (R3-854) by Zoning By-law No. 79-200, as amended by By-law No. 2009-51. A Building Permit was issued to allow the on-street townhouse dwelling to be constructed in accordance with the R3-854 zone. The proposed parcels comply with the zoning regulations. Part Lot Control provisions under the Planning Act prevent lands that are within a registered plan of subdivision from being further divided. Municipalities have the ability to exempt lots and blocks from Part Lot Control to allow lot lines to be reconfigured or part of a lot or block to be conveyed without a consent. Approval of a Part Lot Control by-law is requested so that each unit in the on-street townhouse dwelling can be sold with its own parcel of land. Rear yard access easements for the middle two units and maintenance easements on the exterior portion of the end units are also being created through this process. Part Lot Control has been requested to be lifted for three years to allow for flexibility in scheduling real estate closing dates and to consider market absorption of the units. The applicant should be required to notify the City when the new deeds have been created in order to update municipal records. FINANCIAL/STAFFING/LEGAL IMPLICATIONS As the on-street townhouse dwelling already exists, there are no financial implications. CITY'S STRATEGIC COMMITMENT Council's priority is to strengthen and promote economic development in the City. The application is consistent with this priority. 3 PBD-2015-05 January 27, 2015 LIST OF ATTACHMENTS Schedule 1 - Location Map Schedule 2 - Proposed Parcels n Recommended by: /A/ Alex Herlovitch, Director of Planning, Building & Development Respectfully submitted: Ken Todd, Chief Administrative Officer A.Dilwaria:mb Attach.

Diodati and Members of Municipal Council SUBMITTED BY: Planning, Building & Development SUBJECT: PBD-2015-06 Various Community Improvement Program Applications Request for Extension of Commercial Building & Façade Grant Approvals Applicant: Keefer Developments Ltd. RECOMMENDATION That Council approve the extensions of approval for the Commercial Building and Façade Improvement Grant Agreements to January 31, 2016 for: 1. 4351-4357 Queen Street and 4755-4763 Valley Way; and 2. 4670-4672 Queen St; 4664-4666 Queen St.; 4600-4610 Erie Ave and 4786 Queen St. provided that payment on all taxes owed are received by the city on or before January 30, 2015. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The application can be supported for the following reasons: • The commercial and façade improvements proposed under the Community Improvement Program (CIP) applications have been initiated and an extension would allow for the completion of the improvements. BACKGROUND In January 2014, Council approved six Commercial Building and Façade Improvement applications. The agreements for these grant applications are dated January 29, 2014 and are set to expire at the end of January 2015. The applicant has completed some of the works proposed through the improvement programs and has requested an extension to the Approval Agreements to complete the remainder of the works (Appendix 1). The Grant Incentive Programs under the CIP were intended to assist in the rehabilitation and renovation of the Downtown in a timely fashion and included an expiration deadline of one year from the date of approval. In this way funds allocated by the City for improvements can be put into action in the short term where needed rather than be tied up for unspecified amounts of time. 2 PBD-2015-06 January 27, 2015 ANALYSIS/RATIONALE Out of the six applications submitted for the Commercial Building and Façade Improvement Grants, four of the properties have received new roofs, and all require completion of their façades (Appendix 2). The applicant has a number of improvement projects underway within the Downtown area including residential renovations on three of the subject properties, one of which has been completed. The applicant has illustrated a commitment to improve the properties on which the Commercial Building and Façade Improvement Grants have been approved and on their other properties currently being renovated within the Downtown. It is the intent of Keefer Developments Ltd. to complete all works by the end of 2015. An extension of the Approval Agreements to January 31, 2016 can be supported by Staff. The CIP Application process requires that property taxes be paid in full at the time of submission. The status of the property taxes has been included within the Financial Implications section of the Staff reports of new applications. The CIP Agreements, that are a standard condition of grant approval, contains a clause (Section 6.3) that allows the City to nullify the agreement if taxes have not been paid in the last 90 days (installment periods).

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. 4 TS-2015-01 January 27, 2015 Reco1111ne,ided by: ' Karl Dren, Director of Transportation Services Respectfully submitted: Ken Todd, Chief Administrative Officer TS-2015-02 Niagaraalts January 27, 2015 REPORT TO: Mayor James M. Diodati and Members of Municipal Council SUBMITTED BY: Transportation Services Department SUBJECT: TS-2015-02 Transit Agreement with Niagara College Student Administrative Council RECOMMENDATION: 1. That the City enter into a one semester Agreement with the Niagara College Student Administrative Council be extended from January 2015 through April 2015, at cost recovery. 2. That the Niagara Falls Transit municipal trips be captured and invoiced back to Niagara College Student Administrative Council in the form of a `U Pass' Levy. 3. That the Mayor and City Clerk be authorized to execute the necessary agreement. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The most recent Agreement to provide transit service between Niagara Falls and the Niagara College Campuses for the benefit of the students expired on December 31st, 2014. Transit Staff, together with the College's Student Administrative Council, have established a new Agreement, which includes additional revenues as compensation for all municipal trips the students are taking on the conventional transit service. The new `U Pass' levy will commence this Winter Semester (January 2015 through April 2015) with new technologies being introduced to accurately capture for the number of trips the students are taking within the city. After the Winter Semester, the counts will be verified and the per trip `U Pass' levy of twenty-five cents will be applied and invoiced to Niagara College's Student Administrative Council. BACKGROUND: For many years, transit services have been purchased by Niagara College's Student Administrative Council to provide student transportation to the Welland and Niagara-on- the-Lake Campuses for the Fall and Winter Semesters. While the cost of the services between Niagara Falls and the two Campuses were recovered, the cost for municipal 2 TS-2015-02 January 27, 2015 trips to travel to the Target Plaza where the Niagara College buses depart/arrive, were not being captured. With a steadily growing post-secondary student market in our city, the number of municipal trips taken on Niagara Fails Transit throughout the community by this group has grown dramatically. The level of service provided for this semester is at an hourly rate of $92.93 per hour, which provides cost recovery for the provision of service beyond our municipal borders. In addition, commencing in January 2015, every Niagara Falls Transit municipal trip taken by the students attending Niagara College will be charged back to their Administrative Council at a rate of twenty-five cents per trip. The total number will include trips to & from Target Plaza where the students make connections to the Campus buses, as well as any other non-school trips taken municipally. The Student Administrative Council have agreed to the twenty-five cent per trip `U Pass' levy as a starting value and understand that this levy will be subject to increase in the subsequent school years. To capture all the Niagara College student passenger trips taken on Niagara Falls Transit fnr the crhnnl vAar a ` mart ctirkar' is hainn annliarl to the cti irlcnt I fl rrarric of all the Niagara College students residing in Niagara Falls. This sticker has a chip imbedded within it, which will be read by the fareboxes when the student taps their card on the boxes as they board. Our fare collection system will accept and retain all these individual trips for a specified period of time and thus, transit staff can enable and disable the acceptance of these `smart stickers' based upon our Agreement with Niagara College Student Administrative Council. For the Winter Semester, the total student passenger trips will be all the trips taken between January 2, 2015 and May 1, 2015. The cost of these stickers (approximately $8,000) is being split evenly between the City and the Student Administrative Council and it is their responsibility to distribute the stickers to the students. The stickers will have a useful life in excess of three years to capture the span of most students' post-secondary school careers. Further, if additional buses are required to address capacity issues to the Campuses, the added costs will be the responsibility of the Student Council. This agreement also has a "Fuel Escalation Clause" to protect the City if the price of diesel fuel increases dramatically. In addition, any fares collected by non-student customers choosing to utilize this service to travel to the Campuses are retained by Niagara Falls Transit. ANALYSIS/RATIONALE The increasing number of post-secondary students residing in our community and utilizing Niagara Falls Transit service for municipal trips has identified the need to establish a `U Pass' Levy. This is not a unique arrangement, as both Welland and St. Catharines' public Transit systems have imposed a levy on the post-secondary institutions as well. This `U Pass' Levy may generate in excess of $50,000.00 in an entire school year and thus, approximately half that amount per semester. 3 TS-2015-02 January 27, 2015 FINANCIAL: The second semester agreement with the Niagara College Student Administrative Council to provide transit services between Niagara Falls and the two campuses will provide revenues in excess of $300,000.00. This includes the financial commitments of half the cost to purchase the `smart stickers', which will be approximately $4,000 and `U Pass' levy revenues will be approximately $25,000. CITY'S STRATEGIC COMMITMENT: The provision of service between Niagara Falls and the Niagara College Campuses supports the City's 2011 - 2014 Strategic Priorities which include: Infrastructure Sustainability, Convenient, Accessible, and Sustainable Transportation, Customer service Excellence, and a Healthy and Safe Community.

THIS AGREEMENT dated as of the th day of January, 2015. BETWEEN: NIAGARA COLLEGE STUDENT ADMINISTRATIVE COUNCIL INCORPORATED Hereinafter referred to as "NCSAC" - and - THE CORPORATION OF THE Lu CITY OF NIAGARA FALLS Hereinafter referred to as the "City" WHEREAS NCSAC and the City have discussed the implementation of the Universal Transit Pass ('U Pass') for full-time students registered in the Fall and Winter Semesters of Niagara College ("Eligible Students") with the exception of those students in programs not required to pay the Student Activity Fee; AND WHEREAS approval was obtained for this agreement (the "Agreement") by Council for the City on January , 2015; AND WHEREAS approval for this proposal was obtained through a vote in a referendum amongst the full-time student membership of NCSAC; NOW THEREFORE THIS AGREEMENT WITNESSETH that in consideration of the sum of ONE DOLLAR ($1.00) paid by each of the parties to the other, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows: 1. Term For the purpose of the Agreement the "School Year" commences in September and ends the following calendar year in April. The term of this Agreement is for the Winter Semester commencing on January 1, 2015 and ending on April 30th, 2015 . 2. Total Fee a) For the 2015 Winter Semester, NCSAC shall remit to the City a total fee of TWO HUNDRED AND EIGHTY THREE THOUSAND AND EIGHT HUNDRED AND EIGHT 22/100 DOLLARS $283,808.22. NCSAC shall make payments to the City according to the payment schedule outlined in Article 10 of this Agreement. The total fee payable is not subject to reduction and does not include the provision of additional buses or the `U Pass' levy. 2 b) In addition to the cost associated with the service hours provided to the Welland and Niagara-on-the-Lake campuses (Schedule 'A'), there will be a `U Pass' levy to capture the costs associated with the number of trips the students take on Niagara Falls Transit within the municipality. This `U Pass' levy will be calculated by multiplying all the trips (not including transfers) the students take within Niagara Falls during the School Year at a reduced per trip fare. For the January, 2015 through April, 2015 inclusive Winter Semester, the number of trips the students take will be multiplied by a twenty-five cents per trip fare to determine the total `U Pass' levy for this period of time. This amount will be forwarded to NCSAC by invoice for payment in May, 2015. NCSAC acknowledges that all fees and increases anticipated herein are based on the City supplying one bus in accordance with the service schedule outlined in Schedule "A". In the event that more than one bus or additional services are required, NCSAC shall be responsible for all additional costs associated therewith. The City will provide a separate invoice and record schedule to NCSAC for any additional buses required based on the current hourly rate, with a minimum of two (2) hours, and based on bus and personnel availability. 3. Fuei Surcharge In addition to the charges calculated in accordance with Article 2 above; in the event that the cost of diesel fuel increases during the School Year, such that it exceeds the base rate, NCSAC hereby agrees to pay a fuel surcharge, to be known as the "Fuel Surcharge Fee" and calculated as follows: On or before the 30th day of September 2014, the parties shall agree on a price/liter for diesel fuel, which shall be known as the "Base Rate". The Base Rate will be calculated based on the average price of diesel fuel/liter, plus ten percent (10%). At the end of the School Year the City shall calculate the average diesel fuel price/liter by dividing the total of the monthly average diesel fuel price/liter by eight (8), which shall be known as the "Average Rate". The Base Rate shall then be subtracted from the Average Rate and multiplied by the number of liters of diesel fuel consumed during the School Year in the execution of this Agreement. Example: Approximate total liters of diesel fuel used during School Year 20,000 Average Rate for the School Year $1.36/liter Base Rate $1.32/liter 20,000 x ($1.36 - $1.32) = $800 (Fuel Surcharge Fee) The parties further agree that the Fuel Surcharge Fee, if applicable, shall be paid to the City, in full, by the 31st day of May 2015. 3 4. Identification Eligible Students shall be entitled to unlimited ridership privileges on Niagara Falls Transit regular routes during the School Year when a valid Niagara College Photo Identification Card is produced to the Bus Operator upon entry. It is understood that there is no expectation for service to be provided beyond which is scheduled. In the event a passenger does not produce a valid Niagara College Photo Identification Card or cash fare, they will be refused access to the bus. The nature and format of the acceptable identification will be subject to the approval of the City and NCSAC. NCSAC will supply each Eligible Student with a Niagara College Photo Identification Card. This card must also have affixed to it a sticker that will indicate the student is enrolled in the 2014-2015 validity period. NCSAC will supply the City with information and copies of the `U Pass' stickers that will be accepted by Niagara Falls Transit Bus Operators and keep the City informed of any changes or alterations to the Photo Identification Card or sticker. The City will accept Niagara College Photo Identification Cards without a `U Pass' sticker for a `grace period', which will be provided to NCSAC prior to the commencement of the School Year. 5. Assignment The `U Pass' is not assignable. Any student who is found to have breached the conditions of the use of the `U Pass' will have the privilege revoked without rebate. 6. Confiscated Passes The City reserves the right to check the validity of a `U Pass' with respect to the identity of the user of the Pass and the validity of the Pass itself and to further deny use of the Pass, for cause, as stated in the general policies of the City. `U Passes' that are being used inappropriately will be confiscated by the Bus Operator and will be forwarded to the office of Niagara College Campus Security with an explanation of the circumstances of the abrogation to Campus Security and to the NCSAC within twenty-four (24) hours of the confiscation. In the event that the student does not produce a valid `U Pass' they shall be instructed to pay the cash fare or be refused access to the bus. 7. Non Student Ridership NCSAC acknowledges that non-eligible students or individuals who do not possess a `U Pass' may use the services provided by the City under this Agreement upon payment of the applicable cash fare as set by the City. The City is not required to account or remit said cash fares to NCSAC. 4 8. Responsibility of Service The City will not be held responsible for service disruptions due to unforeseen circumstances (i.e. weather, accidents, traffic congestion, detours, striking workers, mechanical breakdowns, etc.). 9. Service Interruptions In the event of a period of sustained interruption of regular service exceeding ninety-six (96) consecutive hours, being four (4) school days, the City's liability will be limited to a reimbursement to NCSAC on a basis of a "Daily Rate". The Daily Rate is defined as the total fee paid by NCSAC to the City in that school year divided by the total amount of operating days in that school year multiplied by the amount of days without service. Said reimbursement will be paid to NCSAC within thirty (30) days of resumption of service. 10. Payment Schedule Payment for the Winter Semester (Schedule 'A') shall be made to the City no later than March 31st, 2015. If additional buses (service) were agreed upon and provided by the City to NCSAC, the payment for these additional hours of service will he determined by the City and invoiced to NCSAC at the completion of the Fall and Winter semesters for payments by January 31st, 2015, and May 31st, 2015.
