Your Worship and Councillors:
Re: Peel Plaza Project
At the April 20'h meeting of Common Council Mayor Ivan Court requested that the Project
Manager bring forward a report to Council with respect to expenditures and committed
expenditures to date for the Peel Plaza Project. As Council is well aware this is a project which
would see an investment by the City of Saint John, the Province of New Brunswick, the Parking
Commission, the Police Commission, and the private sector which will likely, in total, exceed
$100,000,000. The Province of New Brunswick and the City of Saint John working together with
these commissions and consultants have formed partnerships which will expedite the process
and will result in economies of scale.
Members of Council and persons employed by the media have in recent days requested that a
report be provided that would outline at a high level the expenditures related to this project to
date. Following is a very basic breakdown of expenditures that the City has experienced over
the last 10 years in the development of this project. It must be noted that these expenditures do
not include any monies spent by the Province of New Brunswick in the development of the Law
Courts building.
