Adjournment REPORT TO COMMON COUNCIL .�a 4 February 2011 Zrz two,; His Worship Ivan Court City of Saint John and Members of Common Council Your Worship and Councillors: SUBJECT: 2011 Capital Budget The proposed 2011 General Fund Capital Budget is attached for Council's consideration and approval. The net cost of capital expenditures incurred by a City is financed by way of formal debt obligations. The annual payments on these debt instruments are made through the operating budget and financed through the tax rate. As previously reviewed with Council during preparation of the Operating Budget, the City has a number of outstanding commitments that have yet to be completed and there is some uncertainty about future revenue streams for operations. The approach to the 2011 Capital Budget parallel's that employed in the operating budget — fulfill existing commitments and exercise caution when incurring future obligations. The total capital expenditure target for 2011, apart from Peel Plaza, is $23.5M. In practical terms this means finishing off outstanding general capital projects previously approved by Common Council ($11.62M), limiting the borrowings for new capital projects ($12.03M) and covering the City's share of the cost of the Peel Plaza development ($18.2M). Carry Forward Amounts - (Schedule A) A number of projects approved in the 2009 and 2010 general capital budget have yet to be completed or if the work has been completed payments are still outstanding. Delays can arise due to land acquisition issues, timing of tender awards, and securing environmental approvals etc. These projects are summarized in the attached schedule. It is anticipated that the projects will be completed in the current year and/or final payment will be made on outstanding amounts. Peel Plaza - (Schedule B) The contracts for the Architect, the Police HQ, the Parking Garage and Underground Infrastructure Upgrades have now been awarded. Construction work on the various components is underway and work on the public plaza will not begin until 2012. A summary of the cash flows (based on the contracted amounts) for the development are included for information purposes. The net projected cost of the project remains within the original envelope approved by Common Council. The actual cost will vary according to site conditions, change orders and other onsite adjustments as work proceeds. The projected costs are factored into our overall borrowing provisions. New Projects - (Schedule C) The total capital submissions exceeded $78.OM for 2011. Given that the requests far exceeded the available funding, the projects were screened based on the following factors: • Public /Employee Safety — must address safety issue in the community /workplace • Council Priority — must contribute directly to achievement of a Council Priority • Protection of Assets — must protect the use /investment of an existing asset • Strategic Investment — must advance the strategic interests of the community • Contractual Obligation — must fulfill a contractual or legislative obligation Projects that met one of more of these factors were considered for inclusion in the spending envelope. A final selection was made based on the available funding. A full listing of the submissions is attached in Schedule D. The major portion of the funding is allocated to road works and storm drainage. A number of additional projects are proposed to address social, cultural and economic needs within the community. Council will note that a total $5,396,000 largely from the Gas Tax Funding program is available to reduce the overall borrowing requirements of the City. Conditional Approvals - (Schedule E) Several major projects were submitted for Council's consideration during 2010 that are dependent on securing capital financing from sources other than the City. While each of these projects addresses identified needs within the community an immediate funding allocation from the City, without the full project funding in place, will preclude undertaking other pressing projects in 2011. A City commitment to offer financial support may however assist the project sponsors in advancing their respective projects by securing the needed contributions from other funding partners. These additional contributions will help the City to proceed with the various projects at a fraction of the total cost. 2 It is proposed that the funding for these projects be identified and that payment of the funds is to be conditional on satisfying certain requirements. If the projects do come to fruition then the City contribution will be assessed against future borrowing envelopes. The City needs certainty with respect to its financial obligations and it is therefore proposed that each of the conditional approvals expire on December 31, 2012. Trade and Convention Centre One of the projects proposed for conditional approval is the upgrade to the Trade and Convention Centre. The current facility is dated and needs a timely retrofit in order to have a competitive offering in the convention market for Saint John. This is a strategic investment and staff is recommending that this project be identified as an economic development priority. The total value of the needed upgrade is approximately $10.OM. A project of this magnitude requires federal and /or provincial support. The fact that this is a City owned facility, that the project is tender ready, that other communities have improved their competitive capacity, that an investment by the Province of NB and /or the Federal Government will be recovered through various sales and income taxes, that an active convention centre supports demand for airport services, that there is broad tourism industry support for this project, that employment creation is one of the direct spinoffs and the fact that bars, restaurants, taxis and retail outlets all derive economic spinoffs from convention business are but a few of the reasons for giving priority consideration to this project. This approach does not diminish the merit of the other projects but simply recognizes that there is an immediate opportunity to make a joint investment that will yield community wide benefits, while failure to remain competitive will also have negative consequences. Deferrals - 2012 Several capital expenditures are not included in the current year envelope but should be included in the 2012 capital funding envelope. Advance approval will allow tenders for the projects to be called in 2011 with the actual expenditure only taking place in 2012. The following projects are recommended for advance approval. Pugsley Park - EcoHub ($895,000) — this project will be a focal point for public access on the waterfront in the area adjacent to the Hardman development. It will be an attraction for local residents, tourists and cruise ship passengers alike. The project already benefits from a funding commitment from TDBank in support of the EcoHub interpretation concept and is tender ready. The requisite land leases have been finalized and both the Port Corp and Hardman have indicated that the 3 project will not conflict with their planned developments and will in fact add value to the overall development of the waterfront. A tender call in the fall of 2011 will allow the work to be completed in 2012. Fire Pumper Truck ($500,000) — this type of truck has a useful life of 15 -20 years. In accordance with the Apparatus Replacement Program, adopted by Council in Feb 2006, this new truck will replace a 1996 Spartan Pumper which will be removed from front line service and placed in active reserve, where it will replace an aging reserve pumper. This advanced approval is necessary to allow staff to finalize specifications for tendering in 2011 and for delivery and payment in 2012. Transit Buses ($900,000) — similar to the situation with fire equipment, there is significant lead time from booking the order for a vehicle to actual delivery. The Transit Commission has made considerable progress in reducing the average age of the fleet and consequently the cost of maintenance and repairs. Advance approval will allow for two of the four requested buses to be ordered in the current year. Transit staff have advised that the replacement cycle will have to be accelerated in future years in order to retain an acceptable average fleet age. Input from Other Sources Staff of the various departments, Waterfront Development, Transit Commission, Uptown Saint John and the Finance Department have provided input in the development of the capital budget. Conclusion The capital budget represents a major financial commitment for the community. As with the operating budget, the City must exercise caution in the face of uncertainty about future revenue streams. The proposed budget will allow for a number of outstanding project files to be closed out in the current year, fulfill ongoing obligations and provides new investments for Council priorities such as customer service, flood control, economic development and road reconstruction. Contributions from the Gas Tax Fund will lower the actual borrowing costs of the City. Recommendation That Common Council, Approve the 2011 Capital Budget in the amount of $19,520,528 (gross) with contributions from Other Sources of $7,485,528 yielding a capital budget in the amount of $12,035,000 (net) as set out in Schedule C, and Give advance approval to three projects in the 2012 Capital Budget, namely the Pugsley Park EcoHub ($895,000), the acquisition of Two Transit Buses 4 ($900,000) and the acquisition of a new Fire Pumper truck ($500,000), and further, That the Saint John Trade and Convention Centre retrofit be identified as an economic development priority of Common Council.
