AUTHORIZATION Primary Author Commissioner/Dept. Head City Manager Mark Reade Jacqueline Hamilton Jeff Trail RECOMMENDATION That, effective January 1, 2018, Common Council authorize City staff to post public notices on the City's website instead of the local newspaper for Municipal Plan Presentations, Municipal Plan Amendments, Zoning By-law amendments, and Section 59 amendments (Section 39 amendments under the current legislation). EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Province of New Brunswick has assented to a new Community Planning Act that becomes effective January 1, 2018. The new legislation will allow City staff to post public notices on the City's website instead of the local newspaper for planning applications requiring Council's approval. The Corporate Continuous Improvement service has determined that an annual savings of at least $41,113 could be realized. There is opportunity for further savings by other service areas since the new Local Governance Act, which also becomes effective next year, also provides for web -based public notices. Saint John Water is currently exploring this opportunity. Posting Public Notices on the City's Website 12 -2 - The adoption process, public meetings, and public notification period will remain unchanged as required by legislation. Letters from the Planning Advisory Committee to neighbouring property owners will still be sent. The only change being recommended by City staff is the opportunity to post the public notices on the City's public website and not advertise in the newspaper. PREVIOUS RESOLUTION There are no previous resolutions of Common Council related to this matter. STRATEGIC ALIGNMENT This matter aligns with Council's advancement of a culture of continuous improvement to drive operational efficiencies. REPORT In May 2017, the Province of New Brunswick assented to a new Community Planning Act. This new legislation becomes effective on January 1, 2018. The new Community Planning Act provides the opportunity for New Brunswick municipalities to now advertise public notices for Council Applications' on their websites instead of local newspapers. The purpose of this report is to seek Common Council's authorization for City staff to begin posting Council Application public notices on the City's website in early 2018 for the reasons discussed below. SERVICE AND FINANCIAL OUTCOMES The consideration of this opportunity has been supported by the Corporate Continuous Improvement service. Using a DMADV (Define Measure Analyze Design Verify) methodology, the project team is finalizing the proposed new process for posting public notices. For Council's information, a draft standard operating procedure is attached. It is important to keep in mind that the only change being proposed is the posting of public notices on the City's website instead of the local newspaper. The adoption procedure, including public access to Council and Planning Advisory Committee meetings, and the length of public notification, will remain Posting Public Notices on the City's Website 13 -3 - the same as required by the Community Planning Act. In addition, the Planning Advisory Committee will continue notifying property owners by letter within 100 metres of a property subject to a Council Application. With respect to financial implications, between 2009 and 2016 there were 252 Council Applications (see Table 1 below). Table 1: Council Application Totals, 2009-2016 Based on current legislative requirements and a current average cost of $1,265 for each newspaper advertisement, there were about 307 advertisements placed in the Telegraph -Journal at an approximate cost of $388,355 during this eight- year period. The opportunity to only post future public notices on the City's website is expected to realize an annual savings of $41,113 for Council Applications (see Table 2 below). Council Applications Number Ads Cost Rezoning 166 166 $209,990 MPA & Rezoning 23 46 $58,190 Section 39 33 33 $41,745 MPA 9 27 $34,155 Zoning By-law 9 18 $22,770 Rezoning & Section 39 4 4 $5,060 Zoning By-law & MPA & Rezoning 2 4 $5,060 Zoning By-law & Rezoning 4 4 $5,060 MPA & Zoning By-law 1 3 $3,795 Zoning By-law & Section 39 1 2 $2,530 Totals 252 307 $388,355 Median (per year) 27 33 $41,113 Table 2: Council Application Costs, 2009-2016 Posting Public Notices on the City's Website 14 -4 - In addition, the new Local Governance Act will also come into force next year and will provide similar opportunity for other service areas to post their public notices on the City's website. This could result in much higher annual savings for the City overall. This matter is being explored by City staff, and Saint John Water is currently working towards using the website for their public notices next year. INPUT FROM OTHER SERVICE AREAS AND STAKEHOLDERS The Continuous Improvement project team is comprised of City staff from Growth & Community Development Services and Corporate Services, representing the Common Clerk's Office, Communications, Information Technology Systems, Financial Services, and Strategy, Continuous Improvement, and Performance Reporting.

One of our most important assets, the overnight camp has been a part of our history for nearly 90 years. We want to ensure that this beautiful property located on the Belleisle Bay will continue to enrich lives for future generations. Camp Glenburn provides amazing experiences for children and youth. Each summer we have over 400 campers from the Saint John area participating along with 30 staff that are provided with a wonderful summer job. The camp environment has helped to instill self-confidence in youth and provide a unique environment for them to be unplugged, engaged and active. We are hopeful that this revitalization project is something that could be supported by the City of Saint John and that you will consider a contribution of $10,000. The $2,000,000 campaign will ensure that the facilities reflect the high level of programming that has consistently been provided for generations and will enable us to continue to develop the leaders of tomorrow. Thank you for taking the time to review this request and the attached Case for Support. I would be happy to answer any questions you may have regarding Camp Glenburn and the impact it has in our community. Sincerely, Shilo Boucher, CPA,CA President and CEO encl. &kilaini 18 Case for Support — Camp Glenburn Revitalization Camp Glenburn has a rich history of providing amazing experiences for children and youth. It is the only overnight Y camp in New Brunswick and has remained popular because it instills self-confidence, promotes learning outside of a classroom and offers all participants an opportunity to grow as individuals. It provides a unique environment that encourages participants to be unplugged, engaged and active. Currently serving over 600 campers each summer and 540 youth/adults through the outdoor education facilities Camp Glenburn enrich lives and help to create memories that last a lifetime. As well financial barriers are removed each year for 30% of our campers and participants. Vision Camp Glenburn will be a leader in providing opportunities for outdoor education, recreation and leadership for children, youth and families in New Brunswick. History Camp Glenburn's reputation as a safe, fun, skill -based camp has taken 89 years to build. Established in 1928 by the Saint John YWCA, the camp moved to its present location in 1949. Camp Glenburn has helped to shape children's lives for generations. Location Camp Glenburn is situated on 30 acres of beautifully forested land in the Kingston Peninsula. The waterfront property on the Belleisle Bay is a 40 minute drive from Saint John and 90 minutes from Fredericton and Moncton. Rationale This project is being undertaken to renovate and expand one of the YMCA of Greater Saint John's core assets. Camp Glenburn is at a pivotal point. There is considerable work to be done to ensure that the camp can continue to provide positive outdoor experiences for all who visit. The facilities need to reflect the high caliber of programming that has consistently been provided for generations. Renovations and construction will also provide opportunities for growth in the following programs that have been identified as important priorities for the YMCA: • Extended overnight camp program • Refreshed family camps and programs • New youth leadership programs and certifications • More weekend outdoor recreation programs There are many factors that will support Camp Glenburn's continued success. • It has a strong camper base • It has an engaged group of alumni • The Kennebecasis Valley has a large, growing community of young families Case for Support — October 2017 19 • The 3 Y's in New Brunswick have facilities' with strong memberships • It is the only Y camp and non -denominational camp in New Brunswick. Our goal is to ensure that Camp Glenburn's facilities are able to support and accommodate the population needs. A market study, conducted in 2015, indicated that outdoor education and connecting with nature are critical to the social and mental development of our youngest generation. Revitalizing Camp Glenburn will allow families, children, school groups, clubs and organizations across the province to reconnect with nature and grow in spirit, mind and body.

The Department of Environment and Local Government is currently accepting applications for funding until November 30, 2017 for the following 2018-2019 priority action areas: • Protecting the environment • Increasing environmental awareness • Managing waste M-11 -2- • Addressing climate change • Building sustainable communities PREVIOUS RESOLUTION N/A STRATEGIC ALIGNMENT The recommendation in this report supports Council Priorities related to Valued Service Delivery through asset management. SERVICE AND FINANCIAL OUTCOMES The cost for maintenance of the Spruce Lake Landfill (dredging of sediment ponds) is estimated to be $58,000.00. The total cost for completing the closure of the Howe's Lake Landfill is estimated to be $7,751,000.00 over a five year period. REPORT The former Spruce Lake Landfill was closed for use in 1997 and was permanently closed with the installation of a clayey soil cap, leachate collection piping and an engineered wetland. This was implemented in the late 1990's and early 2000's. The clayey soil cap, and engineered wetland is protecting the environment from leachate and has been performing as required to date. Through biannual flushing of the leachate collection pipes, it has been noted that the sediment ponds have been building up at the pond entry and discharge points. The buildup is not subsiding through the flushing process and will eventually cause blockages. To correct this, the sediment pond needs to be dredged to continue to operate effectively and as designed. Due to the fact that the landfill has been closed, the dredged material needs to be disposed of at Crane Mountain Landfill. The material needs to be transported in a way that there is no leakage into the environment, therefore specialized equipment and resources are required to perform these duties. The cost has been estimated at $47,450.00 for construction and $10,500.00 in engineering costs. This project meets the Environmental Trust Fund 2018-2019 priority action area of protecting the environment. The former Howe's Lake Landfill was closed for use prior to 1982. The site is approximately 23 hectares and is partially closed (one third closed). The partial closure took place from 2003 to 2007 and included the installation of a clayey -3 - soil cap and a piped collection system which directs leachate to the sewer system, then to the Millidgeville Wastewater Treatment Plant. To completely close the site the remaining two thirds needs to be capped with clayey cover and additional leachate collection system needs to be installed. The cost for a 5 year closure plan is estimated at $7,751,000.00. Phase one, which is being recommended for this application is estimated at $1,575,000.00 ($1,370,000.00 construction and $178,100.00 engineering costs). Phase one will provide 3.4 hectares of comprehensive cover on the landfill. This project also supports 2018-2019 priority action area of protecting the environment under the Environmental Trust Fund application. Our immediate goal is to pursue project funding through the Environmental Trust Fund under the current and subsequent rounds of funding, while also optimizing additional Federal — Provincial environmental funding sources (as applicable). The City's portion of overall project costs is yet to be determined, but will include in-kind design work and project management activities over multiple budget years.

The City's Cultural Affairs Office (CAO) estimates that there are well over 1,500 volunteers regularly involved in arts, culture and heritage activities in Saint John each year. They represent close to $3 million in value, based on over 220,000 volunteer hours per year. There are over a dozen pieces of public art in the Uptown of Saint John alone. If the arts and culture had a human face, it might look a bit like comedian Rodney Dongerfield. Despite making a multi -million - dollar contribution to the provincial economy, most arts enterprises get little respect. - Editorial, Saint john Telegraph -journal ... funding culture is neither an imposition of taste nor an act of charity — it is an investment in the health of the community. - Max Wyman It's not that you want to attack utilitarian values. Most of the [municipal budget] dollars that I'm trying to get is to fix sewers and to rebuild streets ... You've got to do that.... but if you only develop a three `P" government — Police, Pavement and Pipes — you're dead in the water today. The average 25 -year- !E:3 old is going to look at you and say: `Mr. Mayor, your city sucks. It's boring!' You have to add value. And you have to invest in arts and culture and people. - Glen Murray — Ontario Provincial Cabinet Minister and Former Mayor of Winnipeg ... [One] reason why the economy needs a strong cultural scene is that it helps to attract and retain labour. This is especially important for cities trying to draw smart professionals from around the world. The best and brightest workers are global citizens, and if they (or their families) are not pleased with the cultural amenities, they won't come.... [Another] reason, however, is the most important. To become the creative, innovative and imaginative citizens that our companies and governments want us to be, Canadians need to willingly 2 expose themselves to new ideas.

This represents an expenditure of $13.43 per capita. A survey conducted by Municipal Benchmarking Network Canada in 2015 of 8 Canadian cities showed that the average spending across those 8 cities was $27.32 per capita.'

Accordingly, if the City's arts facility funding through the GSJRFC is excluded, the City's 2017 funding of arts and culture equals $274,688 or less than 2/1 Oths of one percent of the City's total budget. If the one-time grant to ECMA is excluded, the City's spending is just over 1/10th of one percent. We recognize that hard times require public officials to make the most of every asset and to adopt policies that maximize a city's recovery potential. But the arts are a proven part of that mix. The arts are a recovery asset that supports jobs, stimulates commerce, stabilizes property values and provides many other economic benefits. Think about what it is that attracts people to Saint John and what makes Saint John unique and memorable (in a good way) to visitors. If the City is serious about its commitment to growth — that is, to increasing Saint John's population - then the very modest amounts currently allocated to arts, culture and heritage should not be reduced further. It's pretty strong — and clear. Set out below are some of Common Council's recent written commitments to arts, culture and heritage in the City of Saint John. The City of Saint John is committed to being a city in which the arts are accessible to all, artistic achievement cultural diversity and heritage are valued and celebrated, and the community's uniqueness and vibrancy are reflected in its arts, culture, and citizens, and in its commerce, buildings and facilities. - Saint John Arts and Culture Policy (adopted unanimously by Common Council, September, 2005) enhancesA vibrant arts and culture community andinteractions of residentsario ro es ,e ,. �, �: � ,� -aro ► and natural heritage belong to everyone « and should be « ,r and celebrated.r « occommodo - Municipalthe full spectrum of these resources will enhance quality of life and quality of place to ensure a lively, authentic and creati future for the City. ...

This amount should be sufficient to continue current arts and culture activities and provide some initial start-up funding needed for the reorganization outlined below. These funds ($240,000) could be allocated in 2018 as follows: 51 Cultural Affairs Office (4 months) $40,000 Saint John Community Arts Board (SJCAB) $10,000 Set-up of Arts Saint John (ArtsSJ)4 $10,000 ArtsSJ Executive Director & I staff (8 months) $70,000 ArtsSJ Operations/Grants (8 months) $95,000 Saint John Arts Centre (for City Gallery operation) $ 5,000 Public Art — Maintenance and Repair1$ 0,000 Total (20 18) $240,000 "Ill°iue I!!Iirqposed Iteoirgaii°ulizati iriii IIIINIaiY°uu Set out below is a proposed reorganization plan. January to April, 2018 1 — SJCAB and City will negotiate to conclude the following points: • make-up of new ArtsSJ Board of Directors, including City appointees (eg: Director of Community Planning and Development, Chair (or other nominee) of SJCAB, at least I member of Common Council and I member of Discover Saint John, remainder representing artists, arts organizations, business and the public); • long-term operating/grants funding for ArtsSJ (minimum of 5 years); and • agreed responsibilities and duties of ArtsSJ on behalf of the City. 2 — The City and SJCAB advertise for CAO replacement; may be a City short-term contract position (depends on timing, if needed), until ArtsSJ was established, when the interim CAO becomes ArtsSJ's Executive Director (ED). 3 — SJCAB takes steps to incorporate and organize ArtsSJ under NB Companies Act as a NFP, and seeks charitable tax status from CRA (may take as long as I year). 4 — Agreed City and other appointments made to ArtsSJ Board of Directors. 5 — City realigns its organization chart so that Director of Community Planning and Development is now responsible for current and new interim CAO and new ArtsSJ activities as they relate to City investment in ArtsSJ; and ArtsSJ reports directly and regularly to Director of Community Planning and Development. 6 — SJCAB is either reorganized to have specific representation from Common Council, Department of Community Planning and Development and the public (reduce numbers) to act as the City's conduit with ArtsSJ, or it is disbanded. 7 — The City and SJCAB assist ArtsSJ with office location and setup. 8 — ArtsSJ establishes working relations (and regular meetings) with SJCAB, Director of Community Planning and Development, Heritage Development Board, Discover Saint John, Saint John Arts Centre, Enterprise Saint John and Uptown Saint John —to ensure collaboration and minimal duplication of efforts focused on arts, culture and heritage. ArtsSJ establishes specific working relationships with Discover Saint John and Saint John Arts Centre to share marketing, communication and promotion functions and to ensure all arts -related activities are coordinated and comply with PlanSJ requirements. 9 — Saint John Arts Centre assumes responsibility for the City Gallery operation. May to December, 2018 9 — Current CAO resigns, SJCAB dissolves (if no conduit role with CP&D) and ArtsSJ begins active operations. 10 — ArtsSJ seeks additional funding via grants, sponsors, donations, etc. (partly dependent on charitable tax status) — the object being to be even more active than the current CAO/SJCAB have been. A draft position description for the CAO/ED is attached as Appendix A. 'Saint John Arts Council Inc. was active in Saint John 10 or 15 years ago, so that name may not be available. The SJAC acronym would also conflict with the Saint John Arts Centre. The new organization could be called Council for the Arts, Arts Saint John, ArtsSJ or other name.

Each was attended by a cross section of community stakeholders with the intention of providing some vision and direction for the development of arts and culture in the next 3-5 years. The Summits were presented and sponsored by the Board and coordinated by the Cultural Affairs Office. Each Summit was attended by approximately 120 delegates. The results of first Arts Summit, held in 2001, were chiefly responsible for the eventual formal appointment of the Board by Common Council, as well as the eventual restoration of funding to, and the reopening of, the Carnegie Building as the Saint John Arts Centre. o PEOPLE WAITING SCULPTURES SAVED The Board was instrumental in persuading Canada Post to keep the John Hooper sculpture People Waiting in Saint John, despite considerable lobbying by other communities, and to pay for its relocation and restoration costs. The public was consulted to help identify a permanent site. The popular public art was restored and located at the Barbour's General Store site at the foot of King Street. It remains one of the City's most popular attractions, for locals and visitors alike. o POST -SECONDARY ARTS EDUCATION FACILITY REVIEW In 2006 the Board created a Post -Secondary Education Sub -Committee to explore the possible establishment of an arts institution in City's uptown; through this work the Board was asked to participate in the True Growth Post -Secondary Education Strategy initiative. o CANDIDATES' FORUMS HELD In advance of municipal elections held 2004 and 2016, the Board hosted Candidates Forums for candidates running for Mayor and Common Council at the Saint John Arts Centre - to overwhelming success. o ROUNDTABLE WITH MINISTER OF CANADIAN HERITAGE Board invited and were successful in hosting a roundtable discussion with the federal Minister of Canadian Heritage in 2004. o CITY ADOPTS FIRST-EVER ARTS AND CULTURE POLICY Over the course of a number of months, the Board researched, drafted and presented to Common Council a comprehensive Arts and Culture Policy to Common Council for adoption. In September 2005, Common Council unanimously adopted Saint John's first Arts and Culture Policy. o ATLANTIC CULTURAL SPACE CONFERENCE Through the work of the Board, the City hosted the Atlantic Cultural Space conference in 2005. The Chair of the Board and the Cultural Affairs Office served on the Tri -Level Government Planning Committee. o BOARD PARTICIPATES IN "MAKING IT HAPPEN" FORUM The Board participated in a forum on redevelopment and revitalization in Saint John, held in 2005. It was attended by urban strategist and former Winnipeg mayor and Ontario Provincial Cabinet Minister Glen 0 6�1 Murray and urban cultural planner Dr. Greg Baeker. Authenticity, culture, and creativity underpin wealth creation and livability in Canadian cities. Successful communities work to strengthen links between diversity, arts, heritage, culture, economy and the environment. o FIRST-EVER COMMUNITY ARTS FUNDING PROGRAM ESTABLISHED In 2006, Common Council agreed to provide the Board with funds to establish the Community Arts Funding Program. This program was created to provide small grants to arts and culture organizations or groups, for festivals and special projects, to a maximum of $3,000. The program has been running successfully for the last 12 years. Over the 14 years between 2006 and 2017 about 350 applications led to about 250 small grants being made, totaling about $500,000. o CITY NAMED 2010 CULTURAL CAPITAL OF CANADA Following almost two full years of planning, the Board, on behalf of the City, submitted a comprehensive proposal to the Department of Canadian Heritage to have the City of Saint John designated a Cultural Capital of Canada during the City's 225`' Anniversary in 2010. Canadian Heritage provided $750,000, as part of the designation. This amount was leveraged to a total of $1.5 million when the Board formed the Saint John 225 Committee to oversee and manage the celebrations in 2010. o SAINT JOHN 225 CELEBRATIONS The Board, with the approval of Common Council, formed the Saint John 225 Committee responsible for implementing the Cultural Capital of Canada requirements to our federal submission. The major public art legacy from this celebration is the Shards of Time sculpture along Harbour Passage (near Fort La Tour). Although there were celebrations throughout 2010, much of it focused on the City's birthday on May 18`' o SAINT JOHN ARTS AWARDS: THE ORIGINALS As a result of federal funding received for the Cultural Capital of Canada designation, the Board celebrated excellence in the arts by holding the first-ever Arts Awards. The awards, entitled, The Originals, are presented to the winners in twelve different categories, including: Visual Arts, Emerging Artist, Literary Arts, Dance, Theatre, Popular Music, Classical Music, Film and New Media, Arts Organization, Arts Supporter, Patron of the Arts (Business), and Lifetime Achievement Award. The Board has produced four Originals events (2010, 2012, 2014 and 2017). o BOARD CREATES THE PROGRESSION AWARD The Board commissioned and created the Progression Award in 2010, a Saint John Community Arts Board award to an individual, organization, or event demonstrating community appreciation and support of artistic and cultural activities. The award has been presented to Saint John Energy (2010), Saint John 225 (2012), Asian Heritage Month (2015) and Sculpture Saint John (2017). o SCULPTURE SAINT JOHN The Board was responsible for the formation of the New Brunswick International Sculpture Symposium Inc. (Sculpture Saint John) in 201 I. Four members of the Saint John Community Arts Board also served on the Board of Directors of Sculpture Saint John during it first two to four years to ensure it could operate on its own. The event is held biennially along the waterfront. Sculpture Saint John's international sculpture symposium goes for six weeks in August and September, and it attracts over 150 applications from sculptors all over the world. The fourth edition of Sculpture Saint John will take place in August and September 2018. By its completion in 2020, Sculpture Saint John will have added 38 beautiful granite sculptures to public spaces throughout southern New Brunswick, including at least nine in Saint John. o CURRENT PROJECTS OF THE BOARD 1.

Arts Policy: The Board is conducting a complete review of the Saint John Arts and Culture Policy, which is 12 years old. Public input sessions will be held, in all four Wards, in 2018. 3. Canada 150 Project: The Board is overseeing the Canada 150 Moments project, which will highlight, through videos and images, the variety of projects assisted by the Saint John Community Arts Funding Program. E 6191 COUNCIL REPORT M&C No. 2017-283 Report Date October 20, 2017 Meeting Date November 27, 2017 Service Area Transportation and Environment Services His Worship Mayor Don Darling and Members of Common Council SUBJECT: Recommendations - Amendment to Solid Waste By -Law M-2, A By - Law for the Storage, Collection and Disposal of Solid Waste in the City of Saint John OPEN OR CLOSED SESSION This matter is to be discussed in open session of Common Council. AUTHORIZATION Primary Author Commissioner/Dept. HeadL4 City Manager Katherine Shannon Michael Hugenholtz m I Jeff Trail RECOMMENDATION That Common Council gives First and Second reading to the attached By -Law for the Storage, Collection and Disposal of Solid Waste in the City of Saint John, By - Law Number M-2. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The purpose of this report is for Council to approve the recommended Solid Waste By -Law changes to allow a more effective and efficient service for the removal of solid waste, to eligible residents of the City of Saint John. PREVIOUS RESOLUTION N/A STRATEGIC ALIGNMENT The recommended By -Law supports the Council Priorities related to Sustainable Infrastructure and Community of Choice. 67� -2 - SERVICE AND FINANCIAL OUTCOMES The City of Saint John's Transportation and Environment Services Solid Waste Department collects solid waste from approximately 24,000 household units in a two (2) week cycle within eight (8) hour days, Monday through Friday. In 2016 there was a total of 14,106.44 tons of refuse and compost collected from eligible residents of the City of Saint John. The total tipping fees paid for 2016 was $1,276,177. The Fundy Region Solid Waste tipping fee structure is as follows: $108.00 per ton for refuse, $28.00 per ton for compostable material, $28.00 per ton for construction and demolition material and $216.00 per ton for unsorted material (refuse and compostable material). By approving the proposed Solid Waste By -Law, the city has an opportunity to be more efficient in its solid waste collection and identify some cost savings for the citizens of Saint John. This is achieved through more specific packaging requirements and removing the pickup of construction and demolition material. More specific packaging requirements provide less opportunity for the city to be charged for unsorted material and help improve containment issues in the environment. It also provides a safer work environment for operators who must lift and reach into garbage containers daily. Other notable changes in the By -Law are listed below. These changes allow the City to operate in a more efficient, safe manner and aid in having the property owner to adhere to the bylaw. 4(6) Collection limits, such as bags or containers, may be established by policy of Common Council 4(10) Compost only shall be placed in a plastic (aerated) organics cart as supplied by the Fundy Region Solid Waste Commission. 4(11) Any stationary storage container used for collectable solid waste must have contents placed curbside (outside container) on collection day. 4(12) No chemicals are to be applied to garbage to deter animals. 5(7) Any solid waste deemed not acceptable for curbside collection must be removed from the curbside or an approved collection site within one hour after the Commissioner's normal shift ends on the scheduled collection day. 5(11) The registered owner, or their agents, principals or officers, of a property or vehicle from which solid waste has been placed in violation of the provisions 61FA of this By -Law shall be deemed responsible for the violation and subject to the penalties prescribed in Section 8. 5(12) Owners of commercial establishments shall provide information on their solid waste collector, including company or individual name, address, telephone number and collection schedule when requested by the Commissioner or his representative, within five business days of such request. Fundy Region Solid Waste Commission landfill weigh slips may be required for verification. Failure to comply with such request shall be a violation of this By -Law subject to the penalties prescribed in Section 8. 7(1) Support for Neighbourhood Clean -Up initiatives. 9 Increased violations fines from $70 to between minimum $150 to maximum $1000. These updates also aid the Fundy Region Solid Waste in working towards waste diversion. In a study conducted by the AET Group in November of 2014, Fundy Region Solid Waste found "Within the residential waste profile, Compostable Organics is the number one item found in the garbage, followed by Paper & Plastic materials." (2014 Fundy Region Waste Composition Study) Through the educational campaign associated with these bylaw changes, we have an opportunity to inform citizens of the ways they can help with waste diversion and limiting environmental contamination. Citizens will learn how to actively participate in helping to keeping our City clean and visually appealing. INPUT FROM OTHER SERVICE AREAS AND STAKEHOLDERS The City Solicitor's Office has reviewed the proposed By -Law.

Canada E2L 4L1 E:11.1 Received Date November 21, 2017 Meeting Date November 27, 2017 Open or Closed Open Session His Worship Don Darling and Members of Common Council Your Worship and Councillors: Subject: Ashburn Road Background: Off Ashburn Road there is a small gravel road, also considered Ashburn Road, that has 2 houses on it and serves as an entry way into Rockwood Park. The road and the land it sits on belong to the PNB Dept. Natural Resources. The PNB has stated to me that they will not service the road because they have no need to use it for anything just like other roads that they own on crown land in New Brunswick. The road is currently not being serviced by anyone except the homeowners who are left to gravel it, repair it and the snow removal yet the public uses it, the Saint John public, to access the Saint John owned Rockwood Park but yet we are leaving it up to the residents of this road to maintain it not only for themselves but for Rockwood Park too. This isn't fair in my opinion to these homeowners or the users of Rockwood Park. It definitely shouldn't be the homeowners responsibility to maintain this road that the public uses to access this city owned public park. If you were to visit the road Rockwood Park has signage directing the public to the trail via this road, see pictures I have attached. There are Rockwood Park signs both at the top of the road and the end of it and Rockwood Park users are on the road all of the time using it. Currently the road is in disrepair and has been for quite sometime because no one is servicing it except the homeowners who have no other choice. Our Rockwood Park customers are also contributing to the wear and tear of this road that the homeowners are left to service themselves. This is wrong in my opinion to burden private citizens with this. SAINT JOHN P.O. Box 1971 Saint Jahn, NB Canada E2L 4L1 I www.saintjohn.ca I C.P 1971 Saint John, N. -B.

AUTHORIZATION Primary Author Commissioner/Dept. HeadL4 City Manager Marc Doucet Michael Hugenholtz m I Jeff Trail RECOMMENDATION Your City Manager recommends Common Council authorize the Mayor and Common Clerk sign the attached Bill of Sale which transfers the ownership of four'Cargotecture' temporary art installations to the City of Saint John (CSJ), from Discover Saint John (DSJ). REPORT In the summer of 2017 DSJ held the 'CARGO-TECTURE DESIGN COMPETITION'— a Canada 150 funded project that saw regional artists compete for the opportunity to turn cargo shipping containers into works of industrial art. The winning designers were then granted funding to execute their designs at the Area 506 Festival on Long Wharf in August 2017. The completed containers can be seen in Appendix A. As per the funding agreement established between DSJ and the Canada 150 Fund, at the conclusion of the Area 506 festival the four winning'cargotectures' need to be signed over to new owners who will display the art for public viewing. DSJ has since approached the City of Saint John Parks and Recreation Department (CSJPR) to find suitable locations for their placement and ask that CSJ sign the Bill of Sale found in Appendix B. CSJPR/DSJ staff agree that the best installation locations are as follows: Tin Can Beach, Harbour Passage, Chown Field and the Rockwood Park Mountain Bike Skills Park. Exact locations marked on GIS maps can be seen in Appendix C. -2 - SERVICE AND FINANCIAL OUTCOMES By accepting ownership of these temporary art insallations, CSJ is not obligated to maintain them and retains complete authority in deciding when they shall be removed. All costs associated with the delivery and installation of these art pieces will be at the expense of DSJ and CSJ will not incur any ongoing maintenance costs. Once these installations are deemed unsafe or unattractive, a local metal recycling company will remove them for the value of the scrap metal.

I've tried in December 2014 bo all Councillors and Mayor; November 2016 for which I received a reply that I would hear from the City Manager and never have (I want a reply from Council, not the City Manager); May 2017, for which your Common Clerk says was never received! My question is very simple. "Why does the Saint John Police, Department provide policing or highway #1 through our City with no compensation by the Province?"' This is not done by KV (Rothesay) Police or the Fredericton Police; why are we?

Norton' Subject: tduestio nr Police Dept, Budget Mayor & Councillors Not knOlfflng causes me to ask and just perhaps... —some members, of Council may share the same concern or question. Please do not, confuse "need" with "financial respoursibilifl(" and my question is: Route I: This is a Provincial & Federal designated highwaythat runs through our City, Dexter is responsible for, the highway and Dept. of Transportation & Infrastructure is responsible for the Harbour Bridge. In all other parts of the Province — Route I & 2 are under the carp, & control of the RCMP so,..... Q. by is the Saint John Police Dept. providing any CoVerage on Route 1 and the Harbour Bridge? Better still., Q, Is the City of Saint John being reimbursed for the cost of the Saint John Police providing coverage? Take a few examples: I: When the major bridge repairs were being done a few years, ago, we had a police car at each end of the bridge during peak traffic hours. 2: T'his week, when we had lobster all over the road, City Police provided traffic control. 3: City Police respond to Motor Vehicle accidents on Route I Within the City. 4: 1 believe our City Police have had radar set up on Route I a number of times. 5. RCMP will even call ahead to our City Police if they have an erratic driver on Route I that is about to enter City fimits. The Police Commission should be asked if they have isolated and identified this cost in their budget presentation to Council. If my assumption is correct, I think it would be wise to have a conversation with the Province on file City being reirnbursed or, for the RCMP to take over this coverage. "Just trying to be helpful and identify where there could be some savings in tile Police budget."
