DIRECTION TO STAFF
2008 CAPITAL & OPERATING BUDGET
NCIL
The City of SaInt John
On Saturday, December 15,2007, Common Council met in an Ope Committee format
to review a second draft ofthe proposed 2008 Capital and Operatin Budgets of both the
General Fund and Water & Sewer Utility.
At the conclusion of this meeting it appeared as though the majority of Council had
concluded that the proposed tax rate of $1.795 was acceptable and t e level of Capital
Investment was responsive to the needs of the community. Little di cussion occurred
with respect to the Utility Budget therefore staffhave concluded tha these documents
can be brought to Open Session at a time when Council so decides.
With respect to the Capital and Operating Budget, there did remain handful of issues
upon which staff was seeking direction. Staff was asked to present ese issues to
Council this evening and Council would be prepared to give directi
The items on which Council needs to provide specific direction are s follows:
RELATED TO THE OPERATING BUDGET:
1. Communications Budget:
That the City Manager be directed to alter the proposal for a Comm nication Unit so that
it will result in one additional position, plus some support from a thi d party if required.
Report to Common Council
Subject: Direction to Stqff - 2008 Capital and Operating Budget
2. Environmental Officer:
Page 2
That the City Manager be directed to increase the Establishment by dding a full time
Environmental Officer at an estimated additional cost for budget pu oses of $60,000 for
part year in 2008.
3 Pension Plan Alternatives Studv:
That the City Manager be directed to eliminate from the proposed b dget an amount of
$50,000, associated with taking an initial step of exploring longer te options related to
the Pension Funding Issue.
4 Cherry Brook Zoo (An over the weekend request)
That the City Manager be advised that Common Council is not prep ed at this time to
consider having the City reinstate itself as a core funding source ($1 0,000) for the
Cherry Brook Zoo. Should Council feel it appropriate to consider i . ecting some level
of funding on a one time basis, such amount would be charged to Co neil's Unspecified
Grants Budget.
5 Management Pav Scale:
That the City Manager be directed to decrease the proposed adjustm nt to the
Management Pay Scale from 3% to 2% for an estimated reduction 0 $75,000.
6 Waste Collection -Vulnerable Communities:
That the City Manager be directed to cease further consultation reg ing the concept of
a pilot project with respect to providing weekly waste collection to lnerable
neighbourhoods, currently planned to begin in July, 2008. The expe diture reduction
would amount to approximately $250,000.
7 Neighbourhood Develovment:
Report to Common Council
Page 3
Subject: Direction to Staff - 2008 Capital and Operating Budget
That the City Manager be directed not to proceed with the Neighbou hood Development
Initiative as currently envisaged. The expenditure reduction would ount to $150,000.
8 Establishment Changes:
That the City Manager be directed not to bring forth the recommend tion to increase the
Establishment by three administrative positions ( 1 in Finance, 2 in t e Clerk's Office).
This would be in addition to the one in Building Inspection and poss bly one in
Communications ).
Depending on Council's direction on one, some, or all ofthese quest ons, it would be
staff's intention to adjust the "One Time Write off of Capital Against Operating" by a
corresponding amount so that the Municipal Tax Rate of$1.795 rem ins unchanged.
1.
CAPITAL BUDGET ISSUES:
Rockwood Park 1
That the City Manager be directed to eliminate any funding from th City related
specifically to the Rockwood Park Development Plan, and establishl a new Capital
Budget line entitled "Unspecified Capital Initiatives ".
i
In this manner, Council is not committing to the Rockwood Park PI but would be
leaving the door open should they wish to do at some level after the receive more
detail. At the same time, such an approach may provide staff an op ortunity to consider
other infrastructure projects (River Road) if identification, enginee ng and design could
be accomplished.
2. Heritage Grants
er be directed to leave the funding for Heritage rants at $150,000

SAINT JOHN GENERAL FUND:
SUMMARY OF PROPOSED 2008 CAPITAL AND OPERA.,NG BUDGETS
PURPOSE:
The purpose of this report is to provide a summary for review and d~" cussion by
Common Council on the proposed 2008 Capital and Operating Bud et of the City of
Saint John's General Fund. If found acceptable to Common Counci , approval is being
sought for the necessary recommendations and resolutions that will llow the
Administration to proceed with these documents, serving as guideli,es for the
Administration when delivering the various services to the communi~y.
REVIEWING THE CONTEXT:
In considering these documents, it is appropriate that Common Cou cil be provided with
some appreciation of the context in which staff has compiled the intl rmation for both the
Capital and Operating Budget. Understanding the context is extrem ly important in as
much as if staff has misjudged or misunderstood both what we will all "Community and
Council Realities", then clearly the proposed resolutions will be fou d not to be
acceptable and staffwill need to be given further direction.
First, these documents have been prepared on the basis, or assumpti n, that the City of
Saint John is on the cusp of a significant growth period. Quoting fro recent
documentation provided by Enterprise Saint John,
"Saint John, New Brunswick, is uniquely positioned as one Eastern Canada's
fastest growing economies, driven in large part by the touris ,information &
communications technology, health sciences and energy sect rs.
REPORT TO COMMON COUNCIL

SUBJECT: 2008 GENERAL FUND
OPERATING AND CAPITAL BUDGETS
Our tourism numbers are showing significant growth, due i large part to a well
established special events and convention business, close pr ximity to the Us.
northeast, and our rapidly emerging cruise industry (200,00 passengers are
forecast to arrive in Saint John in 2007, up 54%from 2006). We also have 3
billion in major energy projects currently underway, and we lover $20 billion in
planned or potential incremental capital investments anticip ted over the next
decade.
Local employment numbers are up almost 30% over the pas decade (since 1996);
the highest increase of any urban centre in New Brunswick ver this same time
period. In addition, a staggering 61% of all new jobs creat in New Brunswick
over the past 12 months have been created right here in Sai t John. "
Specifically, as this growth applies to the municipality, the City has een informed that
its tax base has grown by 7.57% in the past year; the most signific t increase the City
has witnessed in more than a decade. Given the economic outlook, taff would have no
reason not to suspect that 2008 is the first year of a period during w ich the municipality
will experience considerable annual tax rate growth. It is in this co text that the 2008
Capital Budget is both aggressive and bold. It proposes significant 'nvestments in long
awaited necessary municipal infrastructure projects.
Secondly, the documents have been prepared within a month of Co mon Council having
accepted and endorsed Sustainability Principles, A Vision and most important to the
Administration, 20- Y ear Community Goals in the areas of Social, E onomic,
Environment, Infrastructure and Governance. These Goals have gu'ded staff in preparing
the documents that Council is considering this evening. The import ce of the work
undertaken by the Citizens Advisory Committee, the Vision 2015 C mmittee and finally
Common Council cannot be overstated. As we move forward, thes Principles, this
Vision and these Goals must become integral to every decision that s made and serve as
the guide rails for all civic services.
Thirdly, these documents have been prepared knowing that this is t e fourth and final
Budget to be considered by this particular Council. Reflecting on C uncil' s term and the
decisions that Council has made, staff has interpreted this Council a having been
generally:
Pro Growth and development, while not wanting to see parts of our community
being left behind.
Concerned with what has been described as "door step servi es", i.e. waste
collection, sidewalk maintenance, a visible police presence d appropriate green
space.
REPORT TO COMMON COUNCIL
PAGE 3
SUBJECT: 2008 GENERAL FUND
OPERATING AND CAPITAL BUDGETS
Sensitive to the increasing costs of municipal services to pro erty owners of this
community.
Appreciative of the importance of Arts, Culture, and our He
future growth prospects.
It is with these points in mind, that both the proposed Capital and erating budgets have
been compiled. Staff would hope that Council will be able to see w ere staffhas
attempted to be entirely consistent with the views of Council as has een expressed
during its term.
Fourth, the documents have also been prepared on the basis ofkno ing that some in our
community hold a very strong view that less government is better, t at the private sector
is more efficient and that citizens are overburdened by high costs, p rticularly in the area
of police and fire.
The City Manager is on record as having brought these views and c ncerns to Council's
attention on many occasions. Yet, through the town hall meetings, t e Visioning process
and weekly meetings of Council these concerns have seldom been r ised.
As a result, the Administration can only conclude that while a small sector of the
community might hold such opinions and have a platform to expou d upon them, the
wider community does not at all share this same view. The broader ommunity will
always need to be assured and demand that municipal services are bing delivered both
efficiently and effectively. Having said this, a review of decisions 0 this and previous
Councils would indicate that if anything, the majority of citizens w t to maintain the
current level of fire protection, witness an increasing police presenc in their
neighbourhoods and see an enhanced level of service being delivere to their doorstep.
The dichotomy of views on such matters is one of the great debates n municipal circles
and will no doubt continue for years. As for the Administration, its ole is to bring these
concerns to the attention of elected officials who in turn have the re ponsibility of
listening to the community and assessing the pulse of citizens on th ses issues. If a
majority of the Community share these views, the Administration w uld fully expect that
Council would give clear direction and that a complete and radical erhaul to the
methods and levels of service provided by Police, Fire, and Municip I Operations would
have to begin. To date, it would appear that in the City of Saint Jo such views are not
being embraced by the majority.
It is in this context that the proposed Capital and Operating Budget ave been compiled.
Finally, the documents have been prepared in a context of knowing that municipal
governance and financing is currently being reviewed by the Gove~ent of New
Brunswick. Council is reminded that the current arrangements bet wren the Province and

all municipalities with respect to the level of Unconditional Grant ding, expires at the
end of2008. Ifthis review is anything at all like the most recent r iew in the area of
post secondary education, Council should not expect to see some tw aking of the existing
system, but rather sweeping reforms in all areas where municipalitie and the Provincial
governments interact.
THE 2008 CAPITAL BUDGET:
With this as the context, the 2008 Capital Budget has been compile
both aggressive and bold and proposes a total investment of $54.8
anticipated municipal borrowings of approximately $37.5 million.
. As indicated, it is
illion with
Previously, it was indicated that Saint John i~ on the "cusp" of ape od of growth. It is
for this reason that proposed investment and borrowings are at an precedented level.
In essence, Council is being asked to approve significant investmen s now in anticipation
that tax base growth in the future, coupled with new provincial/mun cipal finance
arrangements, will be sufficient to cover the oebt payments without ndue hardship on
taxpayers.
Many of the proposed investments in the Capital budget can be, and should be, tied
directly to the 20- Y ear Community Goals. For example,
GOAL: Our City has a strong sense if community and belo ging. We have
active and healthy lifestyles supporte by diversity of parks nd open spaces,
recreation facilities and programs, c ltural and social event and public
gathering places.
In response, the Capital budget proposes a n mber of initiatives.

proposed that;

Clearly the most significant response to this oal is the investment p oposed to construct
a new Transit Facility, the life span of which is expected to be fifty ears.
However, also proposed is the acquisition of four more new low rid r buses along with
one Para Transit Vehicle for a total investme t of $1 ,875,000.
Finally, included in the Capital Budget is an ount of $1 00,000 id ntified as a Mobility
Transportation Study. Staff would anticipat that this would be a m ~or initiative and
would require funding support from other p ners if it is to proceed This is in fact a
regional study and should deal with all mode of transportation.
GOAL: Our City insists on the highest stan ard of quality in archit cturallandscaping,
infrastructure management and urban desig . Our natural built he itage is a key
component in developing new and renewed laces to live, work, pIa and learn.

It is anticipated that this development will in act be of the highest q ality, that it will
help ensure the complete restoration of the C megie Building, that i will have
appropriate public gathering spaces and be in total compliance with ouncil's approved
Arts and Cultural Policy. Staff remains con dent that through the u coming
consultative process, Council's priorities can all be met in this regar .
This concludes the overview of the proposed Capital Budget. As in icated, staff would
hope that it is not only seen as meeting majo infrastructure needs, b t is very response to
the 20 Year Community Goals.
THE 2008 OPERATING BUDGET.
Once again, staff has referenced the Comm . ving at the
proposed recommendations. In addition, sta fhas considered certai challenges and
expectations of this particular Council as it n ars the end of its man ate.

$1.795 per $100 dollars of assessment. As i
expenditures are expected to increase by 6.3
slightly more than $110 million.
Staff is able to state that the proposed Opera .ng Budget will result i
level of services that the community has exp rienced in 2007.
In order to make this commitment and at the same time be responsi e to the community
goals and Council's expectations and challe ges, certain operationa effectiveness in
program delivery are to be implemented as ell as expenditures are oing to have to be
aggressively managed. Even more specific, 0 be successful in mee ing these 2008
Operating Budget targets, Council and the P lice Commission are g ing to have to be
successful in negotiating contracts (particul ly with Fire and Polic with wage
settlements less than what are being experie ced in other communit es and more in line
with that being proposed for management st ff (2%). Information r garding recent
settlements would indicate that this is a sign ficant risk, particularly when both
Bargaining Units have the option of proceed ng to binding arbitrati n.
At the same time, the Operating Budget refl cts the City's legal obI gation to ensure that
the Current Service Cost of the Employee P nsion Plan is being fun ed. This is the
single largest factor for having to increase t e total of all employee enefits (Health,
Dental, WCB, UIC, CPP and Pension from 1% to 24%).

Now, to touch on a few of the highlights or rovisions within this b dget that deserves
specific mention.
SUPPORTING NEIGHBOURHOOD DEVELOPMEN
As the City's enters a period of economic gr wth, it would appear t be coming more
important that consideration be given to dev loping plans, program and other initiatives
to ensure that certain neighbourhoods are no being left behind.
At the same time, there are other neighbour ods that are not neces arily vulnerable, but
for whatever reason, feel disconnected from ity Hall or the decisio s of Common
Council
An envelope of $150,000 is proposed in the perating Budget to de I with this issue.
This envelope will fall under the responsibil ty of the Deputy City anager, who will in
turn work with Vibrant Communities, Hum Development Counci , Community
Development Officers in Leisure Services, eighbourhood Police fficers and the
Provincial Department of Community Servi es in an effort to ensur appropriate
processes and programs can be developed. his is not about provi ing grants to any
third party organization. It is about showin leadership and awaren ss of the issue that
may become magnified in the next decade. inally, it is not about t e City going it
"alone". This envelope should only be mad available by Council, f in fact an amount
equal or more than $150,000 is forthcoming from other stakeholder and levels of
government and Council is satisfied that pos'tive and measurable re ults can be achieved.
IMPROVING COMMUNICATIONS:
It has been clear to staff that this Council ha embraced the concept of improved
communications both internally and externa ly by the City of Saint ohn. As evidence of
this fact, one only needs to refer to the Com unications Audit that as commissioned by
Council in the fall of 2006.
The Operating Budget has identified the nec ssary resources for a t 0 person
Communications Unit. In future years, staf would envisage the ual commitment to
this program might amount to $400,000 to $ 00,000 ifthe City is g ing to effectively
provide taxpayers, ratepayers, employees an stakeholders real and actual information
on a timely basis.
City staff is totally supportive of this initiati e and have been for m y years. However,
financial restrictions have always prevented his initiative from risi g to the top of the
pile.

ENHANCING AND DEVELOPING INDUSTRIAL PA KS:
PAGE 10
The Operating Budget contemplates a higher evel of marketing, pro oting and
managing of the City's Industrial Parks.
Council had appointed a Review Committee 0 review the activities
Industrial parks, which in turn made a numbe of recommendations.
recommendations were subsequently endorse by Saint John Indus al Parks and the
City Manager. The next step is to move tow ds implementation an therefore the
funding to the company ahs been increased fr m $82,500 in 2007 to 275,000 in 2008.
MAINTAINING APPROPRIATE SERVICE LEVELS:
- BUILDING INSPECTION AND BYLAW EN
In anticipation of a rapid period of growth, th re are certain sectors 0 our community
that will demand an enhanced level of servic . Most notably, additi nal resources are
going to have to be provided in the area ofB ilding Inspection and y-law Enforcement.
This issue has been brought to the attention 0 elected officials and t e City Manager by
contractors, builders and citizens as the dep ent has recently stru gled to keep up with
the increased volume of activity. As a simpl example, the number fbuilding permits
issued in 2006 amounted to approximately I, 00 and are anticipated 0 rise to 2,000 in
2007. As Council is aware, the issuance of a Building Permit is just he start of the
process and each permit issued than initiates series of inspections tough the
construction period, all of which are time sen itive. The same incre se in volume is also
being experienced in the area of Bylaw Enfo ement.
As a result, an additional staff resource, coup ed with the necessary t ols to perform this
function, is being proposed in the 2008 Oper ting Budget.
Finally, staff would be remiss if we did not aw to Councils attenti n, certain initiatives
contemplated as we near 2008. Within the e isting Fleet Replaceme t Program and
approved program, a focus will be on acquiri g additional appropria e equipment to
enhance the Sidewalk Snow Plowing Progr . In addition, the Bud et recommends an
increase to Community Arts Board to allow t e Board to deal with s me of the workload
challenges it faces. Unspecified Grants and ublic Celebration bud ts have also been
increased to reflect the requests being made fCouncil. Finally, the Common Clerk's
budget has been increased to recognize the a ditional workload to b generated should
Council decide to implement a Standing Co mittee form of Gove ent and to
recognize the increased role the City will pIa with the Cities ofNe Brunswick
Association in 2008.

And Members of Common Council
The City of Saint IOhn
Your Worship and Members of Council,
SUBJECT: SAINT JOHN WATER (UTILI FUND)
PROPOSED 2008 OPERA TIN AND eAPIT AL BunGE S
PURPOSE OF REpORT
This report covers four matters of business or Saint John Water:
1. Proposed 2008 Water and Sewerage tility Fund Operating udget;
2. Proposed 2008 Water and Sewerage tility Fund Capital Bu
;. Proposed 2008 user rates for utility s rvices; and
+. Plan for 2008 to focus on preparing fI r the future, a year of t ansition.
TIME FOR RENEWED STRATEGIC DIRECTI
Water - Safe, Clean, Healthy; Water and nvironmental Outeo es Essential for Saint
John I, the strategic direction for water a d wastewater services adopted by Council,
acknowledged the crucial need for modem tandards in these esse tial services. There is
a clear determination in the community to d exactly that; Saint Jo n is moving forward.
Wastewater (harbour) clean-up is well und rway, but the vitally i portant conversion to
full drinking water treatment is a huge un ertaking that remains efore us. Along with
these high profile service upgrades is the s stainability of existin infrastructure assets.
Securing value for money over the Ion -te and ensuring reliabil' y of services requires
a substantial, never-ending investment in enewal funding in ev ry operating budget.
Debt financing of renewal (re)construction i quite simply not prud nt; nor is it ultimately
sustainable. Our community's future is ine tricably linked to the hree central pillars of
the Saint John Water mandate: high quali y drinking water, a cl an environment, and
sustainable asset management (public assets conservatively valued t over $Y2 billion).

SUST AINABILITY
Sustainability means meeting the needs of the present without co promising the ability
of future generations to meet their own nee S.2 The first line in this community's vision is
truly exciting; setting out a clear and positi e challenge for Saint J hn Water.
"Our Saint John, Canada's first ci , leads the nation a an example of a
sustainable community."
Vision 2015, Saint John's Program of Exc !lence, provides the fr mework for becoming
that sustainable city, with our ten sustainabi ity principles guiding ansfonnation.
1 . Provide a long-term vision for Sain John based on the pill s of sustainability:
social! cultural, environmental and economic.
2. Recognize and incorporate the val ed and distinctive ch acteristics of Saint
John - including its human, cultur 1, historical and natura attributes - in our
vision and planning for a sustainabl city.
). Engage the entire community of Saint John In he planning and
implementation of sustainable solut ons.
+. Respect Saint John's natural ec systems. Act as a custodian for the
biodiversity and natural ecosyste s of Saint John, and rotect and restore
them.
,. Model the development of Saint Jo on the characteristics of natural systems.
6. Strive to minimize Saint John's eco ogical footprint.
7. Achieve long-term economic stabili y and social security i
8. Foster communication among c mmunity groups an organizations to
emphasize sustainability as a comm n shared goal.
9. Promote sustainable production and consumption thr ugh the use of
environmentally sound technologie and effective demand an agement.
1 O. Establish a systematic process of continual improvemen, based on action
planning, accountability, transparen y and good govemanc
These principles provide much needed cont xt for the evolution of aint John's water and
wastewater services.

BACKGROUND
Saint John Water is a municipal public util ty funded separately b, the users of water and
wastewater services, as prescribed by the .M unicipalities Act ofNe N Brunswick.
The utility serves over 60,000 citizens, plus thousands of visitOls, students and people
who work in Saint John, as well as the industry, businesses and public institutions that
make up our socio-economic fabric. The ra e-paying customer basI consists of:
GQ. 13,645 flat-rate accounts, covering 16,845 dwelling units with water service
and 16,580 with wastewater;
GQ. 2,919 industrial, commercial, and in'titutional (lCI) meterec accounts; and
GQ. City of Saint John (General Fund) t; r fire hydrant services and storm drainage
capacity provided by the utility's combined sewers (sanitary and storm water).
Daily water production averages around 44 million imperial gallon~ per day (lGPD); over
16 billion IG or 73 million cubic metres annually. Over 90% of a I consumption goes to
ICI customers; most of that to the two large t water users.
Ratepayers have invested heavily in thei utility services in ret-'ent years - pursuing
increasingly higher quality expectations for potable water, enpanced environmental
protection and harbour clean-up, and improved service reliabi ity. Rates have risen
steadily for all user classes. Residential fla -rate charges, for exarr pIe, have increased by
over 76% since 2000, from $395 per year t( $696 in 2007:

The governments of Canada and
New Brunswick have helped us with
substantial investments in water and
wastewater infrastructure. Otherwise
rates would have been much higher
or progress much less. In the late
1990s, $6.5 million went into
sanitary upgrades West and North.
Since the beginning of the new
millennium, $3.34 million was
shared in the expansion of the
Millidgeville WWTP and $1.85
million for a Churchill Boulevard collector sewer; $53.2 million
harbour clean-up through the Strategic I frastructure Fund an an additional $5.53
million from the Municipal-Rural Infrastru ture Fund. Water stor ge capacity West has
been enhanced substantially with assistance in the amount of $3.4 million; and Gas Tax
contributions have added another $1,260,00 to asset rehabilitation d upgrading.
Our Business is Your Water /
Bottom Line This generous support, over 68,500,000 since 2000 has allowed the City
to moderate utility user rates, and enabled th community to advanc service standards.

REVIEW OF RATES AND RATE STRUCTU
In 2002, a business plan review evaluated he user rate structure a d revenue needs of the
utility. The study presented a rate model d financial framewor for Saint John Water.
After consultation and feedback from the ommunity, a somewh t revised approach was
recommended by staff and adopted by Co ncil. The next generati n of financial analysis
(initiated in 2006) has studied rates and rat structure options. Its oals were clear pricing
policies and public assurance that equity is reflected in the rates c ged for services.
Two requirements are fundamental to eq itable cost allocation d an appropriate rate
Structure for utility customers: first, a so id set of principles u on which to base the
system of charges; and, secondly, a logical pproach for developm nt of the rate structure
and rate calculations. People must see equit and fairness in what t ey pay for services.
A final draft of the report has just been eceived; the consult ts' findings and their
recommendations will be presented In 0 en session to Council A dialogue with the
public and utility customers should then nsue. Stakeholder fee back, from individual
citizens to large water users, will be among the considerations that ouncil must weigh in
setting a course for this important matter of ublic and financial po icy.
THREE ESSENTIAL PUBLIC SERVICES
1 . The Drinking Water Service pro ides safe, good qualit potable water to
residential, institutional, municipal commercial and ind trial customers of
the utility. Currently, drinking ater receives limite treatment only;
disinfected (with chlorine) in acco ance with Health Ca ada Guidelines for
Canadian Drinking Water Quality d fluoridated for de tal health reasons.
The service is regulated under the Clean Environment A t - Water Quality
Regulation - and delivered under an Approval to Ope ate issued by the
Minister of Environment to the City of Saint John.
2. The Industrial Water Service p ovides some industri s with sufficient
quantities of raw (untreated) wat r to support operatin processes. This
service should be expanded to deliv r treated wastewater e uent (grey water)
to industries which could utilize this resource.
). The Wastewater Service provide collection, treatment and disposal of
municipal wastewater; collected and transported to treatme t facilities through
a system of sanitary sewers and astewater pumping st ions. Wastewater
schemes, treatment facilities and as ociated collection mai s are operated in
compliance with the Clean Enviro ment Act - Water Qu lity Regulation _
under Approvals to Operate issued b the Minister of Envir nment to the City
of Saint John. The service is also r gulated under the Fed ral Fisheries Act
and the Canadian Environmental Pro ection Act, 1999.

CHARTING THE FUTURE DIRECTION
Decemberntl'.2007
Page 7
It is time to update our strategic direction r utility services; to s t a course aligned fully
with Vision 2015. The strategy needs to cl arly specify required s rvice upgrades, secure
commitment to asset sustainability, and ma out a positive, yet pra atic financial plan.
It would be prudent to focus attention on se
g the future course.
Safe, Clean Drinking Water Water is ess tial to life and good ealth; its quality must
be assured by reliable protective barrier and comply with a I safety parameters _
delivered to consumers in a state that is clear, colourless, od urless and free of all
disease-causing micro-organisms (pathoge s) or harmful chemical. Upgrades are needed
to enable the City to assure safe, clean dri ing water. The Actio Plan for Safe, Clean
Drinking Water being prepared must we gh a series of compl x considerations and
articulate a representation that is both comp lling in terms of need d sound technically.
Saint John Harbour Clean-Up Harbo r clean-up is about ood health, economic
prosperity and quality of life; it's about a s stainable future. We e not there yet; much
work remains. The demands are large, with several major construe ion projects, including

Infrastructure Deficit Municipal infrastruc re across Canada is t a "breaking point";
with the Federation of Canadian Municip lities highlighting an infrastructure deficit3
affecting communities, large and small. FC has called for speci I measures to address
this crisis; to set the course towards effe tive and sustainable anagemeni of these
invaluable public assets. Saint John has so e of the oldest operab e water infrastructure
in Canada; these systems need substantial in estment.

Future Rates and Rate Structure Options A comprehensive stu y has been undertaken
to help clarify water and wastewater pricin policies; to assure sys em users that equity is
reflected in the user charges for these se ices. A rate system ba ed on solid principles,
with logical structure and rate calculatio s, will be defendable in any public forum.
Consultants will be making recommendat ons on rates and how those rates should be
equitably structured over the utility's div se customer classes. reliminary indications
are that some fairly significant changes cou d be proposed. Those hould be validated and
reviewed publicly with users before Counci sets future By-Law rat s for all customers.
Community/Customer Consultation Trans ormation will continu well into the future;
people need to be engaged in the change an challenge that will be the "order of the day".
Unresolved Rate AgreementsThe City of S

Financial Management Plan for the Utili A financial model ill guide policy and
major decisions, enhance the effectiveness of long-term planning, provide a context for
management of the utility, help maximize eturn on utility inves ents, and ensure the
public and other stakeholders understand ow their money is be ng used. The cost of
upgrading to modern standards and achievi g asset sustainability ill be very high; the
plan must optimize available funding altern tives and achieve best alue for ratepayers.

PROPOSED 2008 OPERATING BUDGET
The proposed Operating Budget, attach d as Appendix "A", outlines the utility's
operating plan for 2008.
Expenditure Budf!et
Total proposed expenditures are $29,733,1 4, essentially the sam
the costs projected for general operations, utility administration
associated with the utility's sizeable capital onstruction programs.
as 2007. These cover
d the fiscal charges
General Operating Expenses Antici ated operating costs fI r 2008 have increased
by 0.56% to $17,494,608. Reflected in this arginal increase are si ificant reductions in
several cost lines - to offset general infla .onary trends in good and services, special
funding of the utility's share of pension pI obligations (with $1 2,677 from ratepayers
and $118,880 recovered from employees), contractual obligation related to wages and
increased cost of employment benefits (fro 21% to 24.5% ofpa 011). Every effort was
made to minimize negative impact on "capi 1 from operating" und r fiscal charges.

Fiscal Charges The impact of capi al improvements, part cularly in wastewater
(harbour clean-up) along with much ne ded renewal of agin infrastructure assets,
underlies utility fiscal charges. The $12,23 ,516 total (down 0.74 0) is related directly to
funding of upgrades and securing the reliability of infras cture. The financial
implications of another large capital pro am in 2008 will be elt in future budgets;

Infrastructure Deficit As importan as the high profile wastewater upgrades
taking place and the planned drinking wa er enhancements is an urgent call for major
investment in renewal of aging infrastructu e. Saint John has a seri us deficit in its utility
infrastructure, something common to olde cities across the cou try. It represents "the
total additional investment needed to re air and prevent det rioration in existing,
municipally owned infrastructure assets,,4. ignificant for renewal funding are firm "pay
as you go" pledges in operating budgets; as a primary commitment each year. Otherwise,
it would be unrealistic to expect true value for money over the 10 g term. "Capital from
operating" amounts under fiscal charges need to be maximize . Debt financing for
renewal-type (re)construction is patently un ise and, quite simply, ot sustainable.
Revenue Budeet
The proposed revenue schedule reflects th fact that several imp rtant policy questions
will come before Council in the coming m nths; matters ranging om an action plan for
safe, clean drinking water to possible ch nges in rates and rat structure. Council's
decisions will provide much needed clarit and a renewed directi n; one that could see
several noteworthy changes. We believe, t erefore, that it would e prudent to hold the
line for 2008 - to allow time for new policy directions to be pres en ed publicly, discussed
with stakeholders, thoroughly analyzed ith recommendations prepared, and a fair
opportunity for Council to weigh available ptions.
User-pay and balanced budgets are fund mental to water utili y financing in New
Brunswick; "revenues in" cover "expendit res out". Total budge ed revenues for 2008
are projected at $29,733,124; a slight increa e over 2007, as summ 'zed in Table 3.

Drinking Water Model Water system are complex, multi-di ensional networks of
many interactive components; these must ometimes operate un er extreme conditions
with infrastructure of uncertain reliability. reat care has to be tak to ensure the system
is operated safely, with assurance of reli ble service delivery. omputer-based water
models have been researched and software options reviewed. Sy tern modeling will be
invaluable for planning operational shut downs, evaluating s stem expansion and
modifications, determining water age in t e system, reviewing eatment and storage
options, organizing flushing sequences and reparing for maintena ce shutdowns.
Westmorland Road Water Booster Station Improvements will in lude electrical system
replacement, new pumps and motors, and t e installation of flexib e pipe connections to
permit ground movement without damaging facility infrastructure.
Park Street Water Pumping Station An an 'quated diesel pump ill be replaced with a
new electrical generator; with the capability to power the entire sta ion in the event of an
outage. Upgrades will improve several elec 'cal components.
Morna Heights and Greenwood Wastewater Facilities These acilities, one in the
West and the other East, do not meet e fluent discharge stan ards. While planned
upgrades to the trickling filter treatment rocesses are not expe ted to bring effluent
discharges into compliance with regulatio s, a better level of eatment needs to be
achieved and effluent quality raised. These i terim improvements ill allow operations to
continue while permanent treatment solutio s are researched, plann d and budgeted.
Service Profiles and Programs The tree public services f Saint John Water
(drinking water, industrial water and waste ater) are being organ zed into new service
profiles through the Vision 2015 service efinement process. Th formal adoption of
program methodology will help enhance m agement of service q ality, scope, time and
costs. The systems approach focuses on panning, communicatio and reporting, with
clear objectives and performance measures.
Preventive Maintenance (PM) Strengt ening of PM procedu es at utility facilities
is an ongoing priority; designed to extend he useful life of equi ment, ensure service
reliability and contribute to safer work en ironments. Only thro gh high maintenance
standards can effective and efficient utilizati n of utility facilities b achieved.
Water Quality Sampling A full range 0 bacteriological, inorg nic and organic tests
of the City's drinking water is undertaken in accordance with the s pIing plan approved
by the Department of Health. Testing for tri alomethanes, for exa pIe, occurs quarterly
at points around the distribution system wi the highest potential THM levels. Staff is
working to continually enhance testing meth ds and water quality r porting.
Energy Efficiency Saint John Water wil continue to work wi h the City's Energy
Manager towards improving energy efficie operations; potential
remains for reduction in the utility's energy

Sewer Use By-Law / Standards Sewe s can be seriously mis sed: from cooking fats
flushed down drains to heavy industrial e fluents released into t e system. Fats solidify
and clog up mains and manholes, cutti off normal sanitary flows. Vile industrial
effluents, which have no place in a s 'tary system, can seri usly upset biological
processes at treatment plants. Environm ntal obligations can be compromised and
approvals to operate violated. A sewer us by-law, based on a odel developed by the
Canadian Council of Ministers of the Envi onment (CCME), will e proposed to Council
- bringing with it much more rigorous stan ards and more costly nes for violators.
Un i-Directional Flushing Expansion 0 UDF across the water istribution system will
continue. The use of technology to plan flushing sequences d generate invaluable
system data will lead to more thorough cl aning of mains, reduc d flushing times, less
wastage of water, more organized valve ma ntenance and fewer cl udy water problems.
Infrastructure and System Records Up-to date and accurate reco ds will continue to be
a high priority; eventually leading to the 11 digitization (automat" on) of utility mapping
(above and below ground) and data. Relia Ie knowledge of infra tructure location, type
and condition is vitally important for opera 'ons, particularly in em rgencies, for planning
and engineering purposes, and for the safe aring of rights-of-wa
ater priority; the first
protection standards,
lic and dealing with
king water.
Watersheds Diligent management of wa ersheds is a drinking
protective barrier for drinking water quali y. Enforcing watershe
installing safety features, monitoring acti ity, educating the pu
illegal dumping are part of the larger effort 0 ensure safe, clean d .
PROPOSED 2008 WATER & SEWERAGE RA ES
Concurrent with utility budget proposals e ch year are recommen ations on the rates to
be charged for services. User-charges mus cover operating costs and enable the service
obligations of the utility to be met: to prote t the natural environm nt, to provide drinking
water that meets the Guidelines for Can ian Drinking Water uality, and to assure
reliability of the infrastructure upon which t ese services depend.
It is proposed that 2008 rates be held at 20 7 levels; as such, no B -Law changes will be
needed.
Gl1 Residential Rates The residenti I flat rate would rema n at $696; a water
charge of$316.36 and a sanitary se er charge of $379.64. he sewer charge is
120% of the water charge.
Gl1 leI Metered Rates Rates for etered industrial-com ercial-institutional
customers would remain as shown in Table 4, with no chang from 2007.
Customers should expect, however, that ra es will rise in the fut re; to cover operating
expenses and the lion's share of much need d capital investments i their utility.

PRO POSED 2008 CAPITAL BUDGET
Underlying the capital investments bein1 proposed for 2008 ~re the utility's core
obligations to the public: safety of drink ng water, the elimina ion of environmental
contamination and related public health c( nsequences, and susta nable management of
infrastructure assets. Ever more rigorous re ~latory standards are <: Iso making operations
much more demanding; recently highlighte( in the Province's thror e speech.
The proposed Capital Budget totals $45,03,,000; with $24.1 millipn coming from other
government partners and just over $21 million from utility customc: rs. The thirty-one (31)
projects being contemplated for 2008 are Ii ted in Appendix "B"; . 11 designed to address
the community's most pressing water atld environmental nee~s. The public must

Proiect Manaeement Capacity
A critical concern is capacity of professio al engineering resourc s to manage this huge
capital construction program and the vario s design projects bein undertaken; to protect
the substantial public investment and assur attainment of the City s objectives. Although
consulting firms will be extensively utilize , engineering resourc s are stretched beyond
a reasonable limit; one not sustainable ov r the long term. Wh e feasible, operations
managers have taken on capital projects an technical support staf is fully engaged.
It is our intention, with the blessing of Cou cil, to engage needed rofessional staff (on a
permanent basis) to manage this large an very demanding wor load. Positions would
not be added to the establishment, but p ople set against those filled by incumbents
expected to retire in the next five years or o. The cost of these h man resources would
be charged directly to the capital projects fo which they are respon ible.
We believe that this mechanism will help meet today's critical eds and, at the same
time, help the organization prepare for its fu re and the impending surge in retirements.
2008 Capital Hiehliehts
Harbour Clean-Up - Wastewater Treatmen
costs, are four projects related to Saint John
Most notable, ith the lion's share of
arb our Clean-Up, all lly cost-shared:
1. The Eastern Wastewater Treatment acility and outfall ext nsion (phase "A"),
estimated at $32,760,000 in 2008 50% of overall projec cost). The project
should soon complete environment assessment.
2. Lift Station #4, near the Marco P 10 Bridge, estimated t $5,910,000. The
central challenge with this project is land and right-of-way cquisition.
3. The Bayside Drive sanitary forcem in, estimated at $3,480000, is also facing
land issues (that could delay progre s).
+. The Spar Cove Road Lift Station #22) has been fast tra ked to coordinate
construction with the Brunswick Pi eline installation near t e lift station site.
Safe, Clean Drinking Water Most significa t among water projec s for 2008 is funding
($450,000) for the water treatment prelim nary design process; 0 understand exactly
what systems are needed to assure safe, c ean drinking water. is is the foundation
phase; a key step in evaluation of both tec ical water treatment equirements (for our
particular raw water) and financing alternati es for these much need d upgrades.
Infrastructure Renewal Twenty-two ( 2) infrastructure rene al projects address
pressing customer service, safety and relia ility concerns: 12 for water systems at an
estimated cost of $5,675,000 and 10 for sani ry infrastructure valu at $1,990,000.

To: Woods, Pat; Gormley, Elizabeth
Cc: Farrell, Lynda
Subject: Item 5.15 (consent agenda)
The recommendation in this item requires the addition of "...provided however that the City's Legal Dept. will act
for the City on closing." I'll speak to it at the meeting if you'd like.
The Agreement referred to in the recommendation, contains a purported appointment of legal representation for
the City; no authority to do so exists and consequently the need for the amendment.
