REPORT TO: Mayor James M. Diodati
and Members of Municipal Council
SUBMITTED BY: Chief Administrative Officer
SUBJECT: Niagara Region Transit Service Delivery and Governance
Strategy Report (Dillon Report)
RECOMMENDATIONS
1. Niagara Falls City Council endorses in principle the creation of a consolidated
transit system in partnership with the City of Niagara Falls, St. Catharines Transit
Commission, the City of Welland, and the Region of Niagara to develop a
regionally integrated transit system.
2. Staff be directed to develop a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between
Niagara Falls, St. Catharines, Welland and Niagara Region to develop a
governance framework and specify how key issues are to be addressed by all
parties along with next steps and timelines.
3. Niagara Falls City Council hereby requests that Niagara Region become formally
involved in and supportive of the consolidated transit model as recommended in
the January 2017 Niagara Transit Service Delivery and Governance Strategy
Report (Dillon Report) and endorsed by the Inter-Municipal Transit working
group.
4. Council supports the formation of the Transit Working Group, with
representatives from the 12 Municipalities and the Region of Niagara, to work
towards the implementation of the operational improvements outlined in the
Dillon report.
5. Council supports the transition of the current Inter Municipal Working group to a
Transit Steering Committee until a new governance framework is established in
the pending Memorandum of Understanding.
BACKGROUND
In 2010, the City of Niagara Falls, St. Catharines, and Welland made a proposal to
Regional Council to create a tri-city transit service which the three cities would operate,
to be funded by the Region and called Niagara Region Transit. The NRT was to
operate for 3 years with the intent that if successful, transit would be uploaded to the
Region through a Triple Majority process. Regional Council approved the proposal by a
solid majority and in September 2011 Niagara Region, the City of Niagara Falls, the St.
Catharines Transit Commission and the City of Welland entered into a pilot project
agreement to formalize the provision of inter-municipal transit services.
2
CAO-2017-002
February 28, 2017
Funded by the Niagara Region and jointly operated by Niagara Falls Transit, St.
Catharines Transit and Welland Transit ("transit operators") the Niagara Regional
Transit pilot provides transit connections to the communities of St. Catharines, Thorold,
Niagara Falls, Welland, Niagara-on-the-Lake, Port Colborne and Fort Erie.
In May 2015, prior to formalizing the NRT as a permanent inter-municipal transit service
and securing triple majority support from local municipalities, Regional Council agreed
to ask the cities of Niagara Falls, St. Catharines and Welland, as transit operators, to
work together to present a new model to the whole region.
At its meeting on June 23, 2015, City Council passed the following motion:
"That Council support the transits of St. Catharines, Niagara Falls and Welland
working together on how to best provide inter-municipal transit."
Since January 2016, an Inter-Municipal working group of mayors, CAOs and staff from
the local municipalities and Niagara Region have been working together to identify
alternative service delivery and governance options for inter-municipal transit services.
With support from staff and transit managers, the working group hired Dillon Consulting
to develop potential options for the future delivery of inter-municipal transit services for
consideration.
The working group identified key guiding principles in their work:
• Customer driven: continuously improve, respect established local service
• Unconventional solutions: investigate leading-edge technologies, explore
partnerships
• Integrated: be seamless with other modes of transportation, integrated with daily
GO train service, connect at hubs
• Economically responsible: balance costs, investments, explore alternative modes
of delivery
• Fair: respect existing investments of communities, collective agreements and
respect for taxpayers
Between February and December 2016 the consulting team met with transit managers,
stakeholders, transit union representatives, employers and transit users as well as
representatives of each of Niagara's 12 municipalities to discuss the region's transit
needs and challenges. In fall 2016 Dillon presented interim findings and
recommendations to local councils and the public to seek feedback.
In January 2017, the team presented the final recommendations in the report "Niagara
Transit Service Delivery and Governance Strategy." The Strategy outlines a
recommendation for a consolidated transit system for the region and identifies service
and technology enhancements including fare integration, trip planning, smart card
technologies and dynamic transit options. Also, in January, 2017, Regional Council
extended the IMT Pilot Project to allow time for decisions to be made regarding the
future of transit in the Niagara Region.
3
CAO-2017-002
February 28, 2017
Throughout this work, the working group and transit managers have found cooperative
ways to make the existing NRT pilot transit services the best they can be, to continue to
grow ridership and improve the service. This includes a number of improved route
changes to fulfill post-secondary student needs and service the new outlet mall which
started in September 2016. Also, a trip planner is now in place using the Transit App.
ANALYSIS/RATIONALE
City Council has identified the importance of public transit to enhance economic
development. This was identified in Council's 2015-2018 Strategic Priorities.
Council also supported that the transits from Niagara Falls, St. Catharines, Welland and
the Region work toward providing improved Inter-Municipal Transit. Combining local
and inter-municipal transit offers a number of benefits:
• Providing cross-boundary mobility to education and post-secondary institutions
(Brock University, Niagara College), employment opportunities, medical and
social services
• Supports transit ridership to future GO train service, reducing local congestion
and creating transportation options
• Facilitates economic development by businesses seeking a connected and
accessible workforce
• Contributes to a high quality of life for residents
• Supports sustainable community development
While the economic benefits of transit can be measured, other benefits of investing in
public transit are not always quantifiable. Access to employment, education, health and
services, reduced localized congestion and the ability to attract economic development
and a growing (and aging) population are benefits that serve an immeasurable public
good for the city and the greater economic region of Niagara.
Integration with Daily GO Train Service
In June 2016, the provincial government announced that daily GO train service to
Niagara will commence by 2021 to Grimsby and by 2023 to Niagara Falls and St.
Catharines. The Niagara GO business case and related studies estimate that the local
investment towards GO service will be approximately $40 million which has been
committed through Niagara Regional Council.
With GO Transit rail service being announced for Niagara Falls in 2023, an integrated
transit network that is able to seamlessly connect with GO is necessary for optimal
service delivery, not only within the City, but to and from neighbouring municipalities as
well.
WEGO Visitor Transportation System
WEGO is a visitor transportation system that has been servicing the tourism core since
2012. It is owned by the City of Niagara Falls and is operated by the City (Red and Blue
Lines) through an operating agreement with the Niagara Parks Commission (Green and
4
CAO-2017-002
February 28, 2017
Orange Line). It is not to be considered part of the service delivery governance review
and will remain under the control of the City of Niagara Falls.
Dillon Report
The study addresses two components:
1. Governance recommendations related to integrated transit in the region; and
2. Operational recommendations to improve inter-municipal transit services
including the structure of routes, services, fare integration and payment
technology and trip planning.
Recommendations #1, #2, and #3 of this report deal with the governance
recommendations of the Dillon Report. In recommendation #4 of this report, the Dillon
Report and its recommendations related to the operational recommendation, are to be
referred to the Transit working group.
The final report presents a governance strategy that recommends a consolidated transit
model that would see Niagara Falls, St. Catharines and Welland Transit systems
combine their services into one large consolidated transit system. The report states that
there are many details yet to be worked out in terms of spending authority and service
design decision making. Dillon does make clear that the Region must be formally
involved in funding and decision-making of inter-municipal routes.
The recommendation for consolidation calls for the creation of a new governing body
such as a municipal service board or commission made up of representatives from
Niagara Falls, St. Catharines, Welland and Niagara Region with advisory representation
from Niagara's municipalities involved with connecting transit services.
The detailed report and recommendations from the Dillon Report are to be referred to
the Transit Working Group who will continue to work towards the implementation of the
recommendations outlined in the study.
The report recommends improvements to inter-municipal transit services in Niagara by:
• Increasing the frequency of inter-municipal service so that buses arrive every 30
minutes during peak periods
• Extending service hours so that transit is available later in the evening
• Extending full weekend service that would have inter-municipal transit operating
on Sundays
• Eliminating duplicate routes and services to be reinvested
• Improving integration with other municipal transit systems
• Creating a new Niagara-West inter-municipal transit link
• Adding new dynamic transit services for low-demand and rural areas
• Integrating fare strategy, payment technology and trip-planning.
5
CAO-2017-002
February 28, 2017
Next steps
The Dillon Report outlines next steps:
1. Reach triple majority on the Region's involvement in transit. The Niagara Region
does not currently have jurisdiction under the Municipal Act, 2001, to be directly
involved in transit services without triple majority support from area
municipalities. Independent legal opinion sought through the working group has
confirmed that this triple majority approval is required even if the desire is to
maintain the status quo system set up through the NRT pilot.
The recommendation calls for the Region to be given "partial authority" for transit
as it related to Inter-Municipal connections. The Region would need to pass a by-
law to upload part of the lower-tier municipal jurisdiction to participate in
operating and maintaining a public transit system, conditional upon obtaining a
triple majority vote. Authority would only relate to "Inter-Municipal jurisdiction".
Local municipalities would not give up "local control" of the current systems.
The strategy recommended will not "regionalize" transit as a Niagara Region
service, but as a cooperative, consolidated service delivery structure which may
be compared to other cooperative regional arrangements such as provincial
offense court services which is run through a joint management board.
2. Negotiate an MOU related to consolidated transit model. Secure agreement and
commitment by all municipalities involved to work together and implement the
strategic direction through a signed memorandum of understanding to further
develop the implementation plan.
3. Refer the Dillon Report to the Transit working group to continue work on
operational issues.
Although the Dillon strategy outlines an aggressive timeline for implementation in 12
months, the working group is recommending a less aggressive implementation strategy
and phased-in approach based on staffing and resources, respect for the cooperative
nature of the working group and the need for municipal council support, as well as
potential opportunities for financial support and transit incentive programs from other
levels of government.
Municipal CAO's and transit managers are recommending that, pending the finalization
of an MOU related to a consolidated model, 2 new formal bodies be created to oversee
implementation: a Transit Steering Committee (made up of the current Inter Municipal
Working Group, with two additional regional members) and a Transit Working Group,
outlined below.

CAO-2017-002
February 28, 2017
The interim model recommended will build on the successful coordination and
cooperation between the existing transit providers throughout the duration of the NRT
pilot and the working group's exercises since January 2016.
The transit managers have played an integral role in implementing new routes,
scheduling changes new strategies to improve transit services with a cooperative and
user-focused perspective. The introduction of routes 40/45 and a new trip planner are
two recent examples of this.
This interim model to formalize the Transit Working Group and Steering Committee will
continue to build on the positive momentum and success of the working group while
financial, legal and governance decisions to implement the consolidated strategy are
developed.
FINANCIAL/STAFFING/LEGAL IMPLICATIONS
The Dillon Report identifies the need for a number of additional studies as part of the
next steps towards consolidation including organization and human resources support,
legal support and fees, branding, marketing and more. The Strategy estimates one-time
implementation costs between $700,000 and $1.3 million (to be shared between the
three municipalities and the Region) for integration of technology (i.e. fare boxes and
computer systems), City staff and the working group estimate that these transitional
costs could be higher.
Under the interim model, the City of Niagara Falls will continue to be responsible for all
costs associated with the operation of both Niagara Falls Transit and WEGO. The
Region will continue to fund and be responsible for all funding related to Inter-Municipal
Transit routes.
CITY'S STRATEGIC COMMITMENT
The recommendations of this report support Council's 2015-2018 Strategic Priority of
Economic Growth and Prosperity by strengthening public transit linkages between the
municipalities to assist in the movement of people for employment and education.

SUBMITTED BY: Finance
SUBJECT: F-2017-07
Monthly Tax Receivables Report—January
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 January 31, 2017 were $12.5 million
compared to $14.7 million in 2016. During January, tax receivables as a percentage of
taxes billed decreased from 8.2% in 2016 to 6.8% in 2017. The City's finance staff has
begun the tax collection process for properties that are subject to registration for 2017.
There are currently twenty-five 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 2017 improved during the month of January. Table 1 shows that
taxes outstanding at January 31, 2017 are $12.5 million. This represents a decrease
from $14.7 million in arrears for the same period in 2016. 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.
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,
2017, 317 properties were subject to registration. Table 3 summarizes the progress of
these actions after one month of activity. This table shows 48.0% of the tax accounts or
152 properties have been paid in full or the owners have made suitable payment
arrangements. During January, thirty-two accounts were paid in full.
2
F-2017-07
February 28, 2017
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 January, two registered properties were redeemed and
one property was registered. The outstanding taxes for registered properties represents
5.8% 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
January 31, 2017 is 6.8% which is a decrease from 2016's value of 8.2%. The
municipality has a record of full collection and earns significant penalty revenues to
offset the higher measure.

2016 Sleep Cheap Event and WonderFalls Pass
RECOMMENDATION
For the information of council.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The 2016 Sleep Cheap event raised $142,349. Overall, since its inception in 2004, the
event has raised $1,733,669. On the recommendation of the committee, grants were
issued to the selected recipients outlined in the attachment.
The 2016 Sleep Cheap event was once again enhanced by the sale of the WonderFalls
Pass. This pass provides Niagara Residents with an opportunity for discounted prices
to some of Niagara Falls must see tourist attractions. The 2016 WonderFalls pass sales
totalled $18,380. Staff recommends this amount to be transferred to a special purpose
reserve for WonderFalls Pass sales to be used to improve parks and playgrounds in
Niagara Falls. Overall, since its inception in 2015, the WonderFalls pass has raised
$39,330.
BACKGROUND
Sleep Cheap is a fundraising event held annually in the City. The Sleep Cheap event is
coordinated by the City in co-operation with members of the City's tourism industry.
The grant recipients are required to submit applications for funding. These applications
are reviewed and recipients are selected by the organizing committee. All groups
seeking grants must apply to the committee annually.
The WonderFalls pass is an initiative recommended to staff by Niagara Falls City
Councillor Victor Pietrangelo with the goal of raising funds to not only improve the parks
and playgrounds in Niagara Falls, but to make them more accessible. The pass
provides Niagara Region residents participating in Sleep Cheap the opportunity to visit
some of Niagara Falls must see tourist attractions at a significantly reduced rate. The
program runs for the same period as the Sleep Cheap event.

FINANCIAL/STAFFING/LEGAL IMPLICATIONS
The various tourism operators contribute all of the funds raised during the Sleep Cheap
event. Each of the contributing tourism operators receive a receipt for the funds
collected and contributed to the City. A committee made up of a Councillor, City staff
and tourism operators coordinate the event, collect the funds and determine the
recipients for the monies raised. Attached is the committee's recommended list of
recipients with the designated amounts.
The various tourism operators and City of Niagara Falls locations contribute all the
funds raised during the Sleep Cheap event for the WonderFalls Pass sales. Staff
recommends that these funds be allocated annually to a special purpose reserve
designated for improvement of parks and playgrounds in Niagara Falls.

REPORT TO: Mayor James M. Diodati
and Members of Municipal Council
SUBMITTED BY: Planning, Building & Development
SUBJECT: PBD-2017-06
26CD-11-2017-01, Proposed Plan of Condominium (Standard)
5837 Dunn Street
Applicant: Pinewood Homes (Tara Ltd.)
Agent: Al Heywood (Matthews, Cameron, Heywood Surveying)
RECOMMENDATION
1. That the Plan of Condominium be draft approved subject to the conditions in
Appendix 1.
2. That the Mayor or designate be authorized to sign the draft plan as "Approved" 20
days after notice of Council's decision has been given as required by the Planning
Act, provided no appeals of the decision have been lodged.
3. That draft approval be given for three years, after which approval will lapse unless
an extension is requested by the developer and granted by Council.
4. That the Mayor and City Clerk be authorized to execute the Condominium
Agreement and any required documents to allow for the future registration of the
condominium when all matters are addressed to the satisfaction of the City
Solicitor.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Pinewood Homes (Tara) Ltd. has applied to divide the apartment building, currently under
construction, into 56 dwelling units by registering a Plan of Condominium on the lands.
Planning Staff recommends the application for the following reasons:
• the Plan of Condominium will allow individual ownership of the units;
• the condominium will provide housing choices to City residents and will contribute
to the City's required 3 year short term housing supply;
• all applicable planning policies have been applied to the project and there are no
outstanding matters that need to be addressed by further public input; and
• City interests will be addressed through the fulfillment of conditions contained in
Appendix 1.

PBD-2017-06
February 28, 2017
BACKGROUND
Proposal
The applicant proposes to register a Standard Plan of Condominium on the 0.57 hectare
(1.40 acre) parcel of land known as 5837 Dunn Street. Refer to Schedule 1 to locate the
parcel. Site plan approval was granted in March, 2012 for the apartment building being
built on the lands. The shell of the building is completed and interior walls are now being
finished. The condominium will permit individual ownership of the 56 dwelling units. The
driveway, surface parking area, amenity area and landscaped open space will be owned
in common by the condominium. Schedule 2 illustrates the layout of the project.
Circulation Comments
• Regional Municipality of Niagara
— No objections, subject to meeting the conditions listed in Appendix 1.
• Municipal Works
- No objections, subject to meeting the conditions listed in Appendix 1.
ANALYSIS/RATIONALE
The subject lands are zoned Residential Apartment 5C Density (R5C) with special
regulations (R5C-882), in accordance with By-law No. 79-200, as amended by By-law No.
209-141. The R5C-882 zone permits a 5-6 storey, 56 unit apartment building on the
lands that are currently under construction. The applicant recently received approval from
the Committee of Adjustment (A-2016-019) to vary the front yard depth which allowed the
apartment building to be a full 6 storeys rather than a stepped down from 6 to 5 storeys.
Site plan approval was granted for the project in 2012 and the site plan agreement was
registered on June 17, 2013. Building Permits have been issued and the project is
proceeding in accordance with the approved plans. Final grading and landscaping are
still required to be completed. The City is holding a Letter of Credit (LOC) to ensure
compliance with the Site Plan Agreement. The LOC will not be released until all the site
works are completed to the City's satisfaction. To ensure site works are completed when
ownership is transferred to a condominium corporation, Staff recommend the inclusion of
a condition requiring substantial completion and certification of these site works prior to
final plan approval.
The majority of the standard development issues, including land use, servicing and
grading, transportation and landscaping have been addressed in previous Planning
approval (Zoning and Site Plan). The payment of cash-in-lieu of parkland dedication was
collected at the issuance of the Building Permit. Therefore, the conditions of approval are
generally limited to the provision of a community mailbox, provision of any necessary
facilities and easements and a final review to confirm zoning and site plan compliance
3
PBD-2017-06
February 28, 2017
prior to registration of the condominium. With the clearance of these conditions, the
proposed condominium will meet all applicable City policies.
Under Provincial regulations, public notice and the holding of a public meeting are not
required prior to Council approving a Standard Plan of Condominium. Matters of public
interest were addressed at the zoning approval stage.
FINANCIAL/STAFFING/LEGAL IMPLICATIONS
The proposed condominium will generate revenue through property taxes. There are no
other financial implications.
CITY'S STRATEGIC COMMITMENT
The proposed condominium provides for development as envisioned by the City's Official
Plan and Zoning By-law No. 79-200, as amended.

REPORT TO: Mayor James M. Diodati
and Members of Municipal Council
SUBMITTED BY: Transportation Services
SUBJECT: WEGO Advertising Contract Renewal
RECOMMENDATION
1. That the current Agreement with REV Publishing Inc. be renewed for two years
and,
2. That the Mayor and City Clerk be authorized to execute the necessary
agreement.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
REV Publishing Inc. is the current agency utilizing the WEGO system to generate
revenues for the City by selling advertisements within the WEGO fleet on the
infotainment monitors, as well as the interior cards displayed above the seating area. In
addition to these forms of revenue sources for the City, REV Publishing Inc. distributes
several magazines within the hospitality sector, which all feature WEGO transportation
advertisements that inform and encourage the reader to utilize the system while
enjoying their stay. The City benefits from this relationship both financially, as well as
through increased exposure to the visitors through the publications. REV Publications
have expressed interest in renewing the current Agreement for 2 years and staff are
supportive of this initiative. The current agreement will expire February 25, 2017.
BACKGROUND
The WEGO system relies on its stakeholder partners to assist in marketing the system
and the substantial in-kind compensation provided by the relationship with REV
Publishing is of significant value. Rev's in-room magazines, including; On The
Boulevard Magazine, Today Magazine, Niagara Dining Guide, and the Save-A-Buck
Coupon Booklet provide the WEGO system a substantial opportunity to further
broadcast its many transportation advantages to all visitors. With additional products to
sell its clients, REV can better package media buys, including our Infotainment
monitors, which provide a unique medium to promote Niagara Falls businesses and
events via video productions shown to the customers on the buses.
2
TS-2017-07
February 28, 2017
ANALYSIS/RATIONALE
The initial RFP only generated one proponent; therefore it is recommended that the City
renew the contract to the mutual benefit of both parties. REV Publications Inc. have
demonstrated a level of expertise with the Niagara Falls marketplace and the
exceptional marketing opportunity through in-kind publication advertisements is of great
value to the continued promotion of the WEGO system.
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS
Revenue from the one year extension will be $15,400 plus value added compensation
of a minimum of $120,125 in in-kind compensation advertising the WEGO
Transportation system in various publications.
CITY'S STRATEGIC COMMITMENT
This initiative is supported by Council's Strategic Priorities, which include a safe,
accessible, convenient, integrated and fiscally responsible transportation system.

Since the deployment of the new service in 2014 and the relocation into the new building
on Heartland Forest Rd., bus operators have had to commence and complete their
respective work assignments at locations other than the WEGO Facility on Heartland
Forest Rd. These changes have necessitated the securement of a space where staff can
have their lunches and utilize washroom facilities. The space being recommended at the
Shopping Centre has these amenities and can be accessed from the exterior of the
building from an entranceway close to the Transit platform. The City is looking to procure a
five (5) year lease rate with an option to extend the lease for another five (5) years.
BACKGROUND
There are not any routes passing by the new WEGO Facility, thus all operators taking their
lunch at this facility have to be shuttled there. In order to reduce costs and streamline the
operation another major Transit hub facility was needed to accommodate several routes
passing through that would meet the needs of our Operators for their daily lunch breaks as
well as provide a retail kiosk to sell transit media. Upon reviewing all the possible hubs,
the best solution to this situation is a vacant space within the Morrison/Dorchester
2
TS-2017-08
February 28, 2017
shopping centre near our Transit platform, which is serviced by six city routes, five regional
routes as well as service to Niagara College, Welland Campus.
The current portable lunch and washroom facilities have been outgrown and no longer
meet the required needs.
Thus, by securing this facility at a major Transit hub, the needs of our Bus Operators for
their lunch and washroom breaks will be addressed, as well as provide the City an
opportunity for a retail outlet to sell and update transit media and other City services.
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS
The Financial commitment to secure this space has been budgeted for within the 2017
Operating Budget. The monthly lease will be approximately $2,800.00.
CITY'S STRATEGIC COMMITMENT
This initiative is supported by Council's Strategic Priorities, which include developing and
implementing a comprehensive Transportation Plan and strengthen and promote
economic development within the City.

RE: Financial Support for Families of Missing Persons
Minute Item 8.2, CL 02-2017, Thursday, February 9, 2017
Regional Council at its meeting held on Thursday, February 9, 2017, passed the
following resolution:
Whereas, Niagara region resident Ashley Simpson has been missing
since April 2016;
Whereas, searching for a missing family member is costly and concern for
their safety is all-consuming;
Whereas, there is minimal support through the provincial Employment
Standards Act, and through federal Employment Insurance benefits, to
those whose work schedule is impacted due to efforts to find a missing
family member;
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED:
1. That Niagara Regional Council DIRECT the Regional Chair to draft a
letter to the federal Minister of Employment, Workforce Development, and
Labor requesting that a new category of Employment Insurance Benefits
be created for the families that are victims of missing loved ones;
2. That Niagara Regional Council DIRECT the Regional Chair to draft an
additional letter requesting that the provincial Ministry of Labour amend
the Employment Standards Act to provide the families of missing loved
ones the same supports as they would even if the disappearance is not
yet proven to be crime-related under reasonable circumstances (i.e. The
ESA provides for 52 weeks of leave for crime-related disappearance and
106 weeks for crime-related death);
3. That Niagara Regional Council DIRECT the Regional Chair to make an
official inquiry to other appropriate provincial and federal ministries (some
examples include Ministry of Corrections- under victims of crimes

legislation, Ministry of Community Services, Ministry of Justice, Provincial

crime related- we don't know if it is crime related yet), Ministry of
Indigenous Relations and Reconciliation), to assist with where additional
income supports could be legislated for the families that are victims of
missing loved ones; and,
4. That Niagara Members of Parliament and Members of Provincial
Parliament BE COPIED on the respective federal and provincial letters
and that a subsequent letter be sent to each Niagara MP and MPP and
local Councils requesting their support for this motion.
Your Council's favourable support is respectfully requested.

From: Dean lorfida, City Clerk

Re: Niagara Peninsula Conservation Authority Selection
On the Communications agenda is a correspondence requesting a change to how the
Board members are selected on the Niagara Peninsula Conservation Authority (NPCA).
The selection process, as per the Conservation Authorities Act, rests with the upper-tier
municipality (the Region).
The Region populates the Board with Regional Council members. If there is no interest
at the Regional Council, conceivably the Region could request a representative from the
lower-tier Council.
What is being proposed is that the Region defer to the lower-tier councils, the lower-tier
councils appoint citizens with relevant expertise and education.
A number of other Niagara Councils have already brought forward this request. For the
most part, the request has been provided solely for information or received and filed
(Fort Erie, Port Colborne, Thorold, Welland, West Lincoln, N-O-T-L). Pelham passed
the attached resolution.
RECOMMENDATION: For the Consideration of Council.
A Great City ... For Generations To Come
January 6,2016
Town and City Clerks of the Niagara Local Area Municipalities(LAM): agenda item for municipal council.
Re:NPCA Board Selection Process and Direction from Minister of MNRF
The events of the past year have revealed a collapse of confidence in the NPCA Board and in the governance of the
organization. On June 9,2016,Regional Council rejected a call for an independent forensic audit of the NPCA.
Nevertheless,beginning with St. Catharines on Dec.6,2016,eight Niagara municipal councils have passed resolutions
calling for such an audit(although Wainfleet and Niagara Falls have asked the NPCA itself to select the auditor).
Regional Council is clearly at odds with its own municipalities on the issue of the NPCA.At issue is the make-up of
the NPCA Board,eleven of whose members are regional councillors,and the current appointment process,by which
Niagara Region makes the appointments on behalf of the local area municipalities,*with the notable exception of
Thorold.
In her response of December 28,to the call for the province to step in to order a forensic audit of the NPCA,Minister
McGarry, in addition to stating that the government lacks the jurisdictional authority under the Conservation
Authorities Act,made this statement: "...The province oversees the policy relating to the conservation authorities but it
is municipalities like you, who have the sole authority to appoint the boards."(Italics mine).
It seems that Minister McGarry is calling on Niagara's local area municipalities to take a more active part in the
selection of their NPCA Board members,and that she suggests that it is within their authority to do so.
Therefore one way forward might be to change the current process,one which is not mandated by either provincial nor
municipal regulation,but is,in the Region's own words,simply"past practice".I note that,conversely,the practice of
other two-tier councils in making appointments to their Conservation Authority's Board gives authority to the lower
tier municipality to propose members for its Conservation Authority's Board.**This process gives more agency to the
local municipality,and provides for broader democratic participation,since community residents with appropriate
education, experience and a demonstrated concern and interest in conservation and environmental issues may thus be
considered for appointment.
I therefore propose that each Niagara local municipalities do the following:
1. Inform Niagara Regional Council and the NPCA Board that their municipality is recalling its representative on
the NPCA Board;
2. Hold an open and democratic selection process to determine who among its residents and/or elected council
members is best suited by education and relevant experience to sit on the Conservation Authority Board for the
balance of the current electoral term;
3. Once the above process has been completed,ask Regional Council to approve the municipality's appointment
so that he or he may then assume her/his seat on the NPCA Board.
My intent in submitting this request is that this proposal will be received and debated at each of the twelve
municipalities in Niagara-irrespective of any other discussions,past or future,regarding appeals for audits etc.
Further,each individual councilor in each municipality can expect to be contacted seeking their support to have this
matter debated at a council meeting in the very near future.
Sincerely,
Donna Cridland

Re:NPCA Board Selection Process and Direction from Minister of MNRF /page 2
* For the NPCA, the Board of Directors consists of the following representation from the three(3)participating
municipalities: 12 Members from the Region of Niagara, 2 Members from the City of Hamilton, and 1 Member from
Haldimand County.
The Councils of each of the respective participating municipalities has the responsibility to appoint their Members.At
the end of the respective appointed terms, the NPCA formally requests each participating municipality to appoint their
members.
For Niagara Region, the responsibility of appointing members belongs to their regional council. The past practice of the
regional council has been to offer a single appointment from each of their twelve local municipalities, in the following
order:
I The appointment is offered to the Regional Councillor or the Mayor of the local municipality:
a For St.Catharines,the offer is made to the 6 Regional Councillors and the Mayor. In the event there is more
than one elected representative that seeks the appointment, the regional council will vote on the
representative that will be appointed;
b For Niagara Falls, the offer is made to the 3 Regional Councillors and the Mayor. In the event there is more
than one elected representative that seeks the appointment, the regional council will vote on the
representative that will be appointed;
c For Welland, the offer is made to the 2 Regional Councillors and the Mayor. In the event there is more than
one elected representative that seeks the appointment, the regional council will vote on the
representative that will be appointed;
d For Fort Erie, Grimsby, Lincoln, Niagara-on-the-Lake, Pelham, Port Colbome, and Thorold, the offer is made
to the Regional Councillor and the Mayor respectively. In the event there is more than one elected
representative that seeks the appointment, the regional council will vote on the representative that will
be appointed from each of the respective local municipalities;
e For Wainfleet and West Lincoln, the offer is respectively made to each Mayor.
2 If neither a Regional Councillor nor the Mayor seeks the appointment from a respective local municipality, the
regional council contacts the local municipality for a recommendation. In the past, upon being notified of a
recommendation by the regional municipality,the local municipality has selected an elected member from their
council. The local councillor is then recommended to the regional council for approval, and the appointment is
made.
3 If no elected member of the local council seeks the appointment, the council selects a citizen residing in their local
municipality. The citizen is then recommended to the regional council for approval, and the appointment is
made.
For the City of Hamilton, it has been the past practice of their city council to advertise NPCA appointments on the city's
website and local media. Citizens apply for the appointment via an application form. If more than two citizens apply, the
council's selection committee interviews the candidates and makes recommendations to city council. Upon receiving
the recommendations, city council approves the recommendations and the appointment is made.
For Haldimand County, it has been the past practice of their county council to select an elected representative to be
appointed.

REPORT TO: Mayor James M. Diodati
and Members of Municipal Council
SUBMITTED BY: Planning, Building & Development
SUBJECT: PBD-2017-04
26T-11-2016-003 & AM-2016-022
Warren Woods Estates Phase 5 Draft Plan of Subdivision and
Zoning By-law Amendment Application
East Side of Garner Road North of Brown Road
Applicant: 1340258 Ontario Inc. (Robert O'Dell/Charles Lovracs)
Agent: Upper Canada Consulting (Jennifer Vida)
RECOMMENDATION
1. That the Warren Woods Estates Phase 5 Plan of Subdivision be draft approved
subject to the conditions in the attached Appendix A.
2. That the Mayor or designate be authorized to sign the draft plan as "approved" 20
days after notice of Council's decision has been given as required by the Planning
Act, provided no appeals of the decision have been lodged.
3. That draft approval be given for three years, after which approval will lapse unless
an extension is requested by the developer and granted by Council.
4. That the application to amend the Zoning By-law be approved as detailed in this
report.
5. That the Mayor and City Clerk be authorized to execute the Subdivision Agreement
and any required documents to allow for the future registration of the subdivision
when all matters are addressed to the satisfaction of the City Solicitor.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
1340258 Ontario Inc. has applied to subdivide 21.4 hectares of land located on the east
side of Garner Road, north of Brown Road into 290 lots for single detached dwellings, 11
blocks for 56 on-street townhouse dwelling units, a 0.81 hectare park block, a 0.03
hectare block for a trail connection, 5 blocks for a linear park, a 1.13 hectare block for
neighbourhood commercial, a 1.18 hectare block for storm water management and blocks
for road widening and reserves. The plan includes 3.6 hectares of land recently
transferred to the City through a joint arrangement with Hydro One and the developer.
The developer has also applied to amend Zoning By-law No. 79-200 to provide the
necessary regulations to permit the proposed dwellings, parkland and neighbourhood
commercial development and to place lands to the north, east and south of the
2
PBD-2017-04
February 28, 2017
subdivision under an Environmental Protection Area zone. Planning staff recommends
the applications, for the following reasons:
• The proposal complies with Provincial and Regional policies with respect to
achieving minimum density targets in a Greenfield Area;
• The proposal complies with the Official Plan and Garner South Secondary Plan
regarding the land uses expected in this portion of the City;
• The proposed zoning regulations for the residential lots and blocks will facilitate
compact form while maintaining an appropriate level of functionality for residential
use, and the requested open space zone for the park blocks will permit
recreational uses and trails;
• The proposed neighbourhood commercial zone will facilitate a small scale
commercial development to serve the local community while prohibiting sensitive
land uses in proximity to Cytec's manufacturing facilities; and
• Rezoning the wetlands, located to the north, east and south of the subdivision,
Environmental Protection Area (EPA) will protect these natural features, while
placing the storm water management ponds under the same EPA zone will
recognize the pond's function to treat storm water.
The conditions of draft plan approval, which address servicing, parkland dedication,
fencing, utility installation, and all other matters related to the development of the
subdivision, are listed in Appendix A.
BACKGROUND
Proposal
1340258 Ontario Inc. has applied to subdivide 21.4 hectares of land located on the east
side of Garner Road, north of Brown Road (see Schedule 1) into 290 lots for single
detached dwellings, 11 blocks for 56 on-street townhouse dwelling units, a 0.81 hectare
park block, a 0.03 hectare block for a trail connection, 5 blocks for a linear park, a 1.13
hectare block for neighbourhood commercial, a 1.18 hectare block for storm water
management and blocks for road widening and reserves. The plan includes 3.6 hectares
of land recently transferred to the City through a joint arrangement with Hydro One and
the developer. The subdivision is proposed to be developed in 2 stages; the first stage
including the proposed Warren Woods Boulevard, park and storm water management
blocks and the lots south of Warren Woods Boulevard, and the second stage being the
balance of the proposed development. Refer to Schedule 1 for details.
The applicant has also submitted an application to amend Zoning By-law No. 79-200
(AM-2016-022) to establish appropriate land use regulations for the development or
protection of the lands. The lands are zoned Light Industrial (LI), in part, Development
Holding (DH), in part, and Environmental Protection Area (EPA), in part, in accordance
with Zoning By-law No. 79-200. The applicant is requesting the zoning be changed to a
3
PBD-2017-04
February 28, 2017
site specific Residential Single Family IF Density (R1 F) zone, in part, to permit the
proposed single detached dwellings, a site specific Residential Mixed (R3) zone, in part,
to permit the proposed on-street townhouse dwelling units, a site specific Neighbourhood
Commercial (NC) zone, in part, to permit commercial uses on the proposed commercial
block with the exception of clinics, residential dwelling units and day nurseries, and an
Open Space (OS) zone, in part, for the various park blocks and proposed storm water
management pond.
The applicant is also requesting their land holdings immediately to the east, south and
north of the proposed subdivision be rezoned from LI, in part, and DH, in part, to
Environmental Protection Area (EPA), to protect natural features in this area.
Site Conditions Surrounding Land Uses
The majority of the lands proposed to be subdivided were previously used for agriculture
and are generally flat. A corridor formerly owned by Hydro One and now owned by the
City runs through the centre of the land. This corridor crosses the rechanneled Warren
Creek.
Lands to the north, north-east and south-east of the main part of the subdivision contain
Provincial Significant Wetlands. Lands to the south-west are vacant and are intended for
industrial purposes; a portion of the lands further to the south-west, across Garner Road,
are used for industrial purposes. Lands to the west are a mix of woodland and single
detached dwellings. Further to the east, across Warren Creek, the land abuts earlier
phases of the Warren Woods development where single detached dwellings exist or are
under construction.
Circulation Comments
• Regional Municipality of Niagara (the Region)
- No objections from a Regional or Provincial perspective, subject to the draft
plan being redlined to correct the Density Calculation chart and Land Use
Schedule. Requested conditions are included in Appendix A and address
archaeological, servicing and waste collection as well as required warning
clauses.
• Niagara Peninsula Conservation Authority (NPCA)
- Portions of the subdivision (Honeylocust Crescent and Lots 249, 250, 251 and
253) encroach within the 10 metre buffer from the adjacent Provincially
Significant Wetland that is recommended in the applicant's Environmental
Impact Study. NPCA cannot support the current subdivision design.
- Further preliminary details of stormwater management and grading are to be
provided to the NPCA for review.

• Hydro One Networks Inc. (Hydro One)
• No objections.
• Municipal Works, Transportation Services, Parks Design, Fire Services, Enbridge
Gas, Bell Canada, and Canada Post
• No objections, subject to the conditions included in Appendix A.
• Cytec Canada Inc.
- Requests a warning clause be added to all purchase and lease agreements,
warning future residents of Cytec's manufacturing facilities.
Neighbourhood Open House
A neighbourhood open house was held on January 18, 2017 and was attended by 3
residents, representatives of the developer and City staff.
Two residents on Sweet Chestnut Drive (Warren Woods Phase 3 subdivision) asked if the
trees behind their house would remain. It was noted that the mature trees form part of a
Provincially Significant Wetland south of the subdivision that would be protected by the
requested zoning. The land beyond the trees would be developed for the proposed
subdivision.
The owner of a large parcel of land on the west side of Garner Road, opposite the
proposed subdivision, noted he had no concerns with the proposed development, but
inquired about developing his land for residential or industrial purposes. Staff summarized
the policies affecting his land, noting the eastern part of the parcel had a Provincially
Significant Wetland on it and the western part of the land was designated Industrial. Staff
noted that the development potential of the land for residential was limited due to the
Wetland; the western part could be used for industrial purposes, but would need to be
serviced.
ANALYSIS/RATIONALE
1. Provincial Policy Statement and Growth Plan
The applications are consistent with the Growth Plan and Provincial Policy
Statements as follows:
• the applications involve the development of land known as a Greenfield
area within the urban boundary;
• although the proposed subdivision has a density of only 43 jobs and
persons per hectare (below the Provincial target of 50 jobs and persons per
hectare), in combination with other existing and approved development in
5
PBD-2017-04
February 28, 2017
the Garner South Secondary Plan, a density of 54 jobs and persons per
hectare is achieved which meets the minimum density targets; and
• the proposed subdivision contributes to the City's supply of lots and blocks
for single detached and townhouse dwellings.
2. Official Plan (Garner South Secondary Plan)
The lands proposed to be subdivided are designated Residential, Low Density, in
part, Residential, Medium Density, in part, Open Space, in part, and
Neighbourhood Commercial, in part, under the Garner South Secondary Plan. A
small part of the lands (the Warren Creek crossing) is designated Environmental
Protection Area. The proposed development complies with the Garner South
Secondary Plan as follows:
• the lots proposed for detached dwellings comply with the densities expected
under the Residential, Low Density designation;
• although the Secondary Plan discourages reverse lot frontages along major
roads, the 17 lots with reverse lot frontages along Garner Road are less
than ideal, but are acceptable since the layout reduces the number of
entrances onto Garner Road for traffic safety;
• the blocks proposed for townhouse dwellings comply with the densities
expected under the Residential, Medium Density designation. Although the
units are located a bit further north than shown on the Secondary Plan Land
Use Schedule, the intent of the Secondary Plan in providing a mix of units in
this area is met;
• a neighbourhood park will be provided in the location specified by the
Secondary Plan to serve residents of this subdivision. The park is
sufficiently sized to serve the neighbourhood;
• the subdivision meets the minimum density requirements of the Secondary
Plan, in combination with previous approved phases;
• the commercial block is in the location specified by the Secondary Plan and
will be developed with a neighbourhood serving plaza. Due to the block's
location within 2 kilometres of Cytec Industries where sensitive uses are
prohibited, certain uses including a daycare, clinic and residential units are
proposed to be excluded from the standard list of permitted uses; and
• provided the modifications outlined in the conditions of approval are
undertaken the abutting wetlands will be preserved and protected by an
appropriately sized buffer.

PBD-2017-04
February 28, 2017
3. Zoning By-law Amendment
The lands are currently zoned LI, in part, and DH, in part, in accordance with
Zoning By-law No. 79-200. The lots proposed for detached dwellings are
requested to be zoned a site specific R1F zone that is similar to the one
established in previous phases of the Warren Woods development. The changes
to the standard R1 F regulations are summarized in the following table:
ZONE REGULATION EXISTING REGULATION PROPOSED REGULATION
Minimum lot area 320 sq. m 225 sq. m
Minimum lot frontage 10 m (interior lot) 8.2 m (interior lot)
12 m (corner lot) 10 m (corner lot)
Maximum projection of a 1 1.5 m
or 2 storey porch into the
required front or exterior side
yard
Minimum rear yard 7.5 m 7 m
Minimum interior side yard 0.9 m 1.2 m (one side)
0.6 m (other side)
Minimum exterior side yard 3 m 2.4 m (to dwelling)
6.0 m (to garage)
Maximum height 10 m 12.5 metres and 2.5 storeys
Maximum lot coverage 45% None (controlled by setbacks)
Minimum landscaped open 30% 25%
space
Maximum driveway width 55% of lot frontage 60% of lot frontage
The blocks of land intended for on-street townhouses are requested to be placed
under a site specific R3 zone. The changes to the standard R3 regulations are
summarized in the following table:
ZONE REGULATION EXISTING REGULATION PROPOSED REGULATION
Minimum lot area 200 sq. m 165 sq. m
Minimum lot frontage 6.5 m 6 m
Minimum front yard 6 m 3.5 m to dwelling
6 m to garage
Minimum rear yard 7.5 m 7 m
Minimum interior side yard 3 m 1.5 m
Minimum exterior side yard 4.5 m 2.4 m to dwelling
6 m to garage
Maximum height 10 m 12.5 metres
Maximum lot coverage 40% None (controlled by setbacks)
Minimum landscaped open 30% 25%
space

PBD-2017-04
February 28, 2017
The requested regulations can be supported for the following reasons:
• The regulations facilitate compact form;
• as the regulations are similar to the regulations which apply to the earlier
phases of the Warren Woods development to the east, continuity in building
design is promoted;
• a lot coverage regulation is unnecessary because the development of the
compact lots will be adequately addressed by building setbacks; and
• the building setbacks maintain adequate separation distances between
dwellings and the street and contribute to the desired built-form.
A site specific NC zone is requested for the proposed neighbourhood commercial
block. This zone will permit all the uses permitted under the standard NC zone
save and except a daycare, clinic and residential units, and will be subject to the
standard NC zone regulations.
An OS zone is also requested for the park and trail connection blocks as well as
the storm water management pond. This zone will permit the uses contemplated
in the park, as well as recreational trails. However, the storm water management
pond is not intended to provide any active or passive recreational use. As such,
staff recommend that this pond be zoned EPA.
The applicant has also requested the Provincially Significant Wetlands (PSW) and
associated buffers to the north, east and south of the subdivision be placed under
an EPA zone. The EPA zone will protect the natural features associated with the
PSW.
4. Subdivision Design and Conditions of Approval
The proposed subdivision contains a mix of lots for single detached dwellings and
blocks for on-street townhouses. The lots range in frontage between 8.2 and 15
metres. In order to meet minimum density targets, the majority of the lots have
frontages between 8.2 and 10.4 metres.
The proposed subdivision includes lands owned by the applicant, as well as a
former Hydro One transmission corridor which was recently transferred to the City.
The former transmission corridor is to be used for a new central road connecting all
phases of Warren Woods development west of Kalar Road. The agreement with
Hydro One is that the balance of the lands be used for public purposes. The plan
shows a linear trail along the north side to connect with other trails and parks in the
area. Hydro One retains the right to put transmission lines over the corridor in the
future. The developer wishes to complete servicing and road construction along
the corridor in advance of the subdivision agreement for Phase 5. This will enable
existing emergency access encumbering six properties in Phase 3 to be removed.
8
PBD-2017-04
February 28, 2017
Because the City owns the corridor, the developer will be required to enter into a
Servicing Agreement to permit the servicing work within the corridor including the
construction of the planned road and trails to municipal standards. Securities
based on the cost of the work will be necessary and included in the Agreement.
Reference to the Servicing Agreement will be included in the Subdivision
Agreement for Phase 5.
The amount of parkland on lands held by the developer amounts to about 5.3% of
the plan area or about 0.06 hectares. As the City is only entitled to require the
dedication of 5% of a subdivision at no charge for parkland under the Planning Act,
the park will have to be reduced otherwise the City will need to purchase the land
over 5%. Although the Land Use Schedule on the subdivision plan reports that
10.7% of the land being subdivided is being dedicated as parkland. Roughly half
this land is within the corridor already owned by the City. As such, this land cannot
be considered as part of the parkland dedication.
The additional lands owned by the applicant to the north, east and south of the
plan of subdivision contain natural heritage features which are to be preserved.
The NPCA has noted that portions development at the south end of the subdivision
(including part of Honeylocust Crescent and Lots 249, 250, 251 and 253) encroach
into the 10 metre buffer of the adjacent Provincially Significant Wetland that was
recommended by the applicant's consultant. The NPCA cannot support the plan in
its current configuration. To address this concern, a condition has been added to
Appendix A requiring the plan be revised as required by the NPCA to provide the
necessary buffer. This may entail shifting Honeylocust Crescent northward and
reducing the size or eliminating certain lots.
Conditions are included in the Appendix to deal with other typical matters of
concern of the NPCA, including the submission of stormwater management and
grading details for NPCA review and approval, provision of silt fencing during
construction and permanent chain link fencing to protect these areas. In addition,
recreational trail development within the wetlands and buffer areas will be subject
to the approval of the NPCA.
A portion of the lands to be subdivided are within a 2 km radius of the Cytec plant.
This area cannot be used for residential or assembly purposes. Therefore, the
lands are to be used for storm water pond, park, employment, environmental and
commercial uses. At Cytec's request, a warning clause will be required to advise
future residents of the presence of their manufacturing facilities and has been
included in Appendix A.
The balance of the conditions in Appendix A are standard conditions of draft plan
approval and include the dedication of necessary road widenings and daylight
triangles, installation of municipal services, road and pathway construction,
provision of utilities to the subdivision and the naming of streets in accordance with
City policy.
9
PBD-2017-04
February 28, 2017
There are no concerns with registering the subdivision in two phases; however a
separate subdivision agreement will be required to secure necessary works in
each phase. The conditions of approval reflect this.
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS
The proposed development will generate development charge contributions and property
tax revenue for the City. There are no other financial implications.
CITY'S STRATEGIC COMMITMENT
The proposed development supports the Vibrant and Well Planned City Strategic Priority.
This Strategic Priority targets the implementation of the Strategic Plan for provision of
Parks, Recreation, Culture and Arts. The development of the proposed trail system,
which is intended to link with other proposed trails, will comply with this Strategic Plan.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The Niagara Falls Archery Club Inc. has made a request to lease 25 hectares of City
owned land on the north side of Sherk Road between Sodom Road and Niagara River
Parkway. The City initiated zoning by-law amendment is to permit the Club to establish
an archery facility, including a stationary archery range, parking area and associated
buildings and structures on the north-east corner of Sherk Road and Willoughby Drive
and a walkable archery range on other parts of the lands. The amendment will also
permit a public park. The amendment is recommended for the following reasons:
2
PBD-2017-05
February 28, 2017
The establishment of small scale, passive recreational uses and accessory uses
such as trails, board walks, footbridges and picnic facilities that will not interfere
with natural heritage features or their functions are permitted on lands designated
Environmental Protection Area as well as Environmental Conservation Area.
Ancillary uses including: parking areas, interpretive centres, conservation shelters
and other related uses that are compatible with the ECA designation are also
permitted subject to the completion of an Environmental Impact Study. As such,
the proposal to establish a stationary and walkable archery range and ancillary
uses on the lands conforms with the intent and purpose of the City's Official Plan.
An Environmental Impact Study has been completed that demonstrates that the
proposed archery club will not adversely impact the natural heritage features and
habitat on the lands, subject to tree replacement, environmentally sensitive
construction methods for the parking lot, adequate setbacks from significant
environmental features and timing of tree removal to avoid the bird breeding
season;
Site specific zoning on the north-east corner of Sherk Road and Willoughby Drive
will permit the more intensive components of the archery facility, including a
stationary archery range and parking area, in a location with less sensitive natural
heritage features. The amendment will also permit a public park in this location;
and
Site specific zoning on the balance of the lands to permit a walkable archery
range on existing trails and new trails authorized by the Niagara Peninsula
Conservation Area will assist in limiting impacts on more sensitive natural heritage
features.
The Niagara Falls Archery Club Inc. will be required to enter into a lease agreement with
the City to cover such matters as the construction of a stationary archery range and
parking area, improvements necessary to Willoughby Drive between Sherk Road and the
driveway into the facility to City standards, securing the property, warning signage and
insurance.
BACKGROUND
Proposal
The Niagara Falls Archery Club Inc. has made a request to lease approximately 25 ha of
City-owned lands located on the north side of Sherk Road, between Sodom Road and
Niagara River Parkway. Refer to Schedule 1 to locate the lands. The City has initiated a
zoning amendment to permit an archery facility on the lands. The more intensive
components including a shooting range, parking area and associated picnic area,
portable storage unit and portable toilets are proposed to be located on the north-east
corner of Sherk Road and Willoughby Drive. Refer to Schedule 2 for further detail.
Existing trails on the lands are proposed to be used for a walkable shooting range. New
trails on the lands will first require authorization from the Niagara Peninsula Conservation
Authority.
3
PBD-2017-05
February 28, 2017
The lands are currently zoned Rural, in part, and Conservation and Open Space, in part,
in accordance with By-law No. 395, 1966. The City proposes to rezone the lands to
several Environmental Protection Area zones, in accordance with Zoning By-law No. 79-
200, with site specific provisions permitting the archery facilities, including a shooting
range, a parking area and associated picnic area and accessory structures. In addition,
the proposed zoning would allow existing trails to be used as a walkable shooting range
and only permit new trails and bridges on the lands, subject to authorization from the
Niagara Peninsula Conservation Authority.
Site Conditions and Surrounding Land Uses
The subject lands are comprised of two parcels which are located on the east and west
side of Willoughby Drive. The parcels are occupied by forest, wetlands, and cultural
meadows and crossed by a watercourse. The parcel on the west side of Willoughby
Drive has an informal trail which extends westward from Willoughby Drive. There is also
a system of informal trails near the east end of the easterly parcel.
The parcels are separated by Willoughby Drive, which is a municipally owned road
allowance. The road has an unimproved clay surface at this location. The parcels are
mainly surrounded by wooded or scrub lands, with rural residences and agricultural
lands to the south-east.
Circulation Comments
Information about the requested Zoning By-law amendments was circulated to City
divisions, the Region, agencies, and the public for comments. The following summarizes
the comments received to date:
• Regional Municipality of Niagara (the Region)
Regional staff is of the opinion that the proposal maintains the intent of
Provincial and Regional policies and do not object to the proposed zoning
amendment, subject to the comments from the NPCA.
• Niagara Peninsula Conservation Authority (NPCA)
— No objections to the proposed zoning by-law and the proposed zone
boundaries. Further comments on the EIS will be provided; recommended
mitigation measures should be implemented and undertaken during
construction An NPCA permit will be required for all development and site
alteration, including new trails, proposed within a wetland, watercourse or
within 30 metres of these features.
• Municipal Works
— No objections. The Willoughby Road ROW between Sherk Road and the
proposed driveway will need to be constructed to the City's rural standards
and the ROW north of the driveway entrance chained off. It is
4
PBD-2017-05
February 28, 2017
recommended that the use of Willoughby Drive and the improvements
necessary to the ROW be addressed in a license agreement.
• Legal Services, Transit, Fire Services, Enbridge
No objections.
Neighbourhood Open House
A neighbourhood open house on the proposal was held on January 23, 2017. The
meeting was attended by surrounding property owners as well as members of the
Archery Club.
The neighbouring property owner to the west voiced concerns that arrows may pose a
hazard to people on his property. Archery Club members noted that the existing trail that
is proposed to be utilized for target shooting ends a significant distance from his property
and that targets would be oriented such that shooting would be directed away from his
property. They also noted they would consult with the neighbour if any new trails were
proposed to be created in the vicinity of his property.
Another neighbour was concerned about the driveway that was originally proposed off
Sherk Road. When informed that the access was recommended to be relocated off of
Willoughby Drive, as shown on Schedule 2, the neighbour was no longer concerned.
A third neighbour noted a nearby property had been used for late night partying and
expressed concerns that the archery range may be used for similar activities. Club
members assured the neighbour that archery activities would cease at dusk, and the
property would be secured with a gate and with signage to prevent trespassers.
ANALYSIS
1. Official Plan
The subject lands are designated Environmental Protection Area (EPA), in part,
and Environmental Conservation Area (ECA), in part, and Good General
Agriculture, in part, in the City's Official Plan. The EPA designation applies to
Provincially Significant Wetlands, NPCA regulated wetlands greater than 2 ha in
size, Provincially Significant Life ANSIs, significant habitat of threatened and
endangered species, floodways and erosion hazard areas and environmentally
sensitive areas that are intended to be preserved. The ECA designation applies
to significant woodlands, significant valley lands, significant wildlife habitat, fish
habitat, significant Life and Earth Science ANSIs, sensitive ground water areas,
and locally significant wetlands or NPCA wetlands less than 2 ha in size.
Small scale, passive recreational uses and accessory uses such as trails, board
walks, footbridges, fences, docks and picnic facilities that will not interfere with
natural heritage features or their functions are permitted under both the EPA and
ECA designation. Uses ancillary to the above noted uses including: parking areas,
5
PBD-2017-05
February 28, 2017
interpretive centres, conservation area shelters, and similar uses are only
permitted on those lands designated ECA. These uses are only permitted where
an Environmental Impact Study (EIS) demonstrates, to the satisfaction on the
Region and Niagara Peninsula Conservation Authority (NPCA), that there will be
no adverse impacts to the adjacent natural heritage features.
An EIS was completed by North-South Environmental Inc. to ensure the use of
the lands by the club did not have adverse impacts on the natural heritage
features on the site. The study found that the development complies with
applicable Provincial, Regional and City natural heritage policies and regulations
as noted below:
- Adequate setbacks can and will be provided from the Provincially Significant
Wetlands;
- Loss/disruption of habitat due to tree removal to accommodate the archery
range and the parking lot can be offset by planting new trees around the
periphery of this development and removing trees outside of bird breeding
season (April to July);
- Impacts of runoff from the parking lot and archery range/picnic area can be
addressed by erecting erosion control fencing during construction and
constructing a bioswale around the parking lot; and
- The existing trail system is acceptable, however a small portion of the trail
west of Willoughby Drive should be rerouted as it comes close to several
clusters of white wood aster (an endangered flowing plant).
The NPCA is reviewing the EIS and will be providing formal comments shortly.
They have noted in the interim that the recommended mitigation measures listed
above should be implemented during construction.
2. Zoning By-law
The regulation of the use of the lands is proposed to be shifted from Zoning By-
law No 395 to Zoning By-law No. 79-200 because the later by-law contains the
EPA zoning which was created to identify and protect natural heritage features.
The standard EPA zone limits permitted uses to conservation, existing agriculture,
wildlife management and works of a Conservation Authority (i.e. flood control).
Three site specific EPA zones are proposed to be established on the lands with
additional uses and regulations as follows:
EPA-1038 —This zone is proposed to be applied to the portions of the site that are
designated EPA and have the most significant natural features such as
Provincially Significant Wetlands, watercourses and floodplains. This zone will
limit additional uses to existing trails, new trails and footbridges authorized by the
NPCA, and a walkable archery range on the trails.
6
PBD-2017-05
February 28, 2017
EPA-1039 — This zone is proposed to be applied to the portions of the site that are
designated Environmental Conservation Area and have natural features such as
significant woodlands. This zone will limit additional uses to existing trails, new
trails and footbridges authorized by the NPCA and a walkable archery range on
the trails.
EPA-1040 — This zone is proposed to be applied to the portion of the site that is
designated Environmental Conservation Area on the north-east corner of Sherk
Road and Willoughby Drive and which is intended to be used for the stationary
archery range and associated uses and facilities. This zone will permit a public
park, stationary archery range and accessory buildings and structures (which
could include a storage/maintenance building and portable sanitary facilities).
The following site specific regulations are recommended for the EPA-1040 zone:
ZONE REGULATION PROPOSED REGULATION
Minimum setback of a stationary archery range, parking
area and associated buildings and structures from the 20 metres
Willoughby Road right of way, save and except for one
driveway
Maximum setback of a stationary archery range,
parking area and associated buildings and structures 65 metres
from the Willoughby Road right of way
Minimum setback of a stationary archery range, parking
area and associated buildings and structures from the 26 metres
Sherk Road right of way
Maximum setback of a stationary archery range,
parking area and associated buildings and structures 135 metres
from the Sherk Road right of way
Minimum setback of a stationary archery range, parking
area, and associated buildings and structures from 15 metres
lands zoned EPA-1038
Maximum floor area of all buildings and structures 186 square metres
Maximum height of buildings or structures 6 metres
Maximum number of parking spaces 30
7
PBD-2017-05
February 28, 2017
The requested amendments are appropriate for the following reasons:
• Limiting the use of the lands zoned EPA-1038 and EPA-1039 to existing
trails, new trail and footbridges authorized by the NPCA and a walkable
archery range along these trails will assist in ensuring trail construction and
usage is in keeping with the recommendations of the EIS.
• The uses proposed in the EPA-1040 zone will accommodate the intended
activities of the Archery Club and alternatively a public park; and
• The proposed standards of the EPA-1040 zone will provide a safety zone
around the archery range, the setbacks from the nearby wetland
recommended in the EIS and setbacks from Sherk Road and limits on the
size and height of buildings and structures to mitigate impacts on
surrounding properties.
The amending zoning by-law is included in Council's agenda for passing.
3. Lease of the Lands to Niagara Falls Archery Club
The Niagara Falls Archery Club will be required to enter into a lease agreement
with the City to address matters of the use of the land. The following matters
should be addressed in the lease:
- Removal of trees, construction of the archery range, and the planting of 112
replacement trees in accordance with the EIS;
- construction of the parking lot and driveway and placement of buildings and
structures in accordance with City standards (Building Permits to be applied
for as required);
- construction of the portion of Willoughby Road between Sherk Road and the
driveway into the range in accordance with City standards for a rural cross
section;
- securing the property including gates at the driveway into the parking lot and
advisory signage;
- signage as necessary to ensure safe usage of the walkable archery range;
and
- necessary insurance for the usage.
Staff is authorized, through this report to prepare the necessary lease agreement.
8
PBD-2017-05
February 28, 2017
4. Tree Removal
The EIS included a Tree Saving Plan to demonstrate the location, health and
potential impact to the trees in the vicinity of the stationary archery range and
parking area. A total of 56 trees greater than 10 cm DBH are proposed to be
removed based on the current site plan. In order to mitigate the impact of tree
removal on breeding birds, tree removal has to occur outside of the breeding bird
season, generally from mid-May to mid-July. In order to ensure that the Archery
Club is not delayed a further season, it is recommended that Council authorize the
necessary tree removal provided that such tree removal is completed prior to April
1, 2017.
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS
The lease agreement will need to address insurance and liability to ensure the City is
protected in case of an accident.
CITY'S STRATEGIC COMMITMENT
The proposal does not impact on any of the Strategic Priorities.
