Box 1971 Saint John, N.B. E2L 4L1 With all the problems we are hearing and reading about the city pension plan, it makes us wonder how the deficit can go from $40 million to $190 million in a relatively short time. In all phases of operations, the city appears to be spending more than they are taking in. Peel Plaza, the police station, parking garage and the new bus station together are very, very expensive. Did the bus station have to be this big? Could provisions not have been made to make extensions at a later date? Did the city have to cut bus service, and then buy two new buses worth approximately one million dollars? To most people spending $185,000 to place the gaudy panels over the expensive stone blocks at the bus station is a true waste of time and money. In order to increase revenue to help pay the bills, one of the things the city is going to do is increase the cost to use the fields. This does not seem fair to the children of this city, particularly where in a lot of cases the parents are volunteers who work to make sure leagues keep going. In order to save money all the lifeguards are going to be withdrawn from all the public beaches. I wonder what the city's liability insurers think of this. Mispec Park is another example; it was quoted in the Telegraph - Journal that the city manager stated that by closing the park the city would be saving $500.00 for the year 2012. I am not sure where this figure came from? At one of the council meetings in 2011, it was stated that the park would be open for 2011 and the city would run it themselves. In May, the water was hooked up, but the washrooms were never opened all year. A lot of people go to the park on a nice day. Last year there were 85 cars parked on the side of the road because the gates were locked. Where do you think all these people would have gone to the bathrooms? They only had one choice and that was the woods. People came out because the city said it was open. Garbage was seldom picked up and the grass was only cut 2 or 3 times all year The city received Mispec Park from the Federal Government after the end of the 2 °d World War. It was to be used for recreation by the people of Saint John and surrounding areas. During the war millions and millions of dollars was spent and many lives lost. Now, during peace time, $500.00 is too much to spend for people's enjoyment? There was a gradual deterioration at the park since 1945. Very little maintenance was done and slowly it wasn't the place it used to be. However, that changed in 1996. With the help from the city, the Provincial, Federal governments and volunteers, it was restored and more facilities added. Trails were created, the ball field restored and a playground added. As one of the top executives from Tourism New Brunswick stated a few years ago, Mispec Park was "New Brunswick's best kept secret." If we look at this year's Saint John Visitors Guide it states, that " Mispec Beach encompasses one of the premiere sandy beaches found on the Bay of Fundy. It is located on the eastern edge of Saint John just 20 minutes from the city centre with parking, picnic sites, playground, paved games court and a sports field. Free admission with canteen and washroom facilities." This would be as far from the truth as you could get. During the months of November and pecember, 2010, strong winds and high tides caused a lot of damage to the banks and stairs. Provisions were made by the N.B. Government under the EMOs 34 Disaster Assistance plan to have this type of damage repaired. Jan 14, 2011 was the deadline in which to register. City staff were advised of the damage and the deadline, but, as usual, the city missed the deadline. The EMO's adjuster and Mayor Ivan Court met on June 23, 2011. At this time EMO changed their position and would allow the city's claim to be presented. As of last week, it appears nothing has been done. We have the opportunity to get funds to do repairs on city land, but we're not doing it. What else are we missing? Who is in charge here? If any of the current council members would have seen the condition of the park last year, they couldn't help but be embarrassed. I believe strongly that we need a change in key staff members and in the way the city does business. I also feel one term in council is long enough. I am still waiting for two return calls from one of the present councillors. Good luck to the new candidates. Sincerel / =:Brian Harris 2921 Red Head Road Saint John, N.B.

Our Building Inspection Department was given a directive from council to take a more aggressive approach in dealing with this issue. In April 2009, Council affirmed a newly written by law. Since then, Council worked hard with the Provincial Government to get this new legislation passed. I believe, it is critical for Common Council to explore every opportunity at our disposal to achieve a significant reduction of the number of vacant /derelict buildings in Saint John. In my opinion, we need to understand the City of Saint John's Fire Departments capacity to deal with dilapidated and derelict buildings under the provisions of the Fire Prevention Act. I suggest that the Fire Chief present a brief written report with regard to exploring the possibilities and examining the potential of the fire department being utilized in a greater way to address vacant/derelict buildings. Motion: I propose that Common Council receive a brief written report with regard to the fire departments capacity to deal with dilapidated and derelict buildings under the provisions of the Fire Prevention Act.

Originally, there was a committee formed in 2008 to begin the process of developing a plan for the reconstruction of Rainbow Park. Fortunately, City Staff, Common Council, the Provincial and Federal governments quickly committed substantial resources to the concept plan developed through community consultation. This project, to date, represents a real commitment to reinvest in our recreational /park infrastructure and support the revitalization of our city's priority neighbourhoods. On May 24 1 arranged for Councillor Reardon and myself to meet with MLA Carl Killen, members from P.U.L.S.E (People United in the Lower South End) and staff from Leisure Services to discuss issues related to the completion of the Rainbow Park master plan. As a result of this meeting, I believe it's important to update Council and constituents with regard to the work planned for this summer and information about phase 2. Motion: I propose that the city manager present a progress report to Council with regard to Rainbow Park. This report should provide P.U.LS.E with the opportunity to update Council on the work they've undertaken with regard to the same.

City of Saint John Subject: External & Internal Communications Strategy for City of Saint John An external communication strategy which establishes and provides reliable and effective opportunities for sharing information and community consultation is critical to the overall success of the City of Saint John's customer service delivery model. An internal communication strategy which performs well as a result of clear expectations with regard to the reliability and frequencies of reports and updates will create synergies between staff, boards, agencies, commissions and Council. External Communication An external communication strategy should ultimately fulfill the expectations that all pertinent and appropriate information is being shared with the general public. There should be effective and various ways for citizens to interact conveniently with City Hall in order to share opinions, express concerns and make customer service requests. As we acknowledge the great work being done by our City's communications department, let's continue to pursue excellence as we seek to continuously improve and create opportunities for meaning dialogue between City Hall and the Citizen's of Saint John. As a part of this process, let's continue to support ways to enhance communication with citizens and City Hall by ensuring the: • Enhanced use of things such as press conferences in order to facilitate regular sharing of information with the public through local media • Further promotion of our City's new website. The establishment of our new website helped our municipality in delivering an outstanding online customer service resource with many useful features. For example, there is a resource comparable to "fixmystreet.com" which allows citizens to upload pictures of potholes when expressing concerns and submitting requests for work. • Implementation of a 311 Phone Service. In July 2008, 1 suggested the municipality create a 311 city phone service that would provide one number to access information on all city services. This phone system will create better accessibility, responsiveness and efficiencies by linking people with resources and vital service supports. "Same day response" standards and the tracking of inquiries are key elements of this system. • An increased number of Ward meetings. In January 2011, Council committed to holding additional Ward meetings where and when deemed appropriate. This year's budget allocates funds to insure we provide a greater number of meetings to engage citizens through consultation. • Increased use of Twitter. I have heard individuals express to me the importance of City Hall being more active in engaging the community by utilizing Twitter. Along with Facebook, this medium provides our organization with a new level of interaction with an ever - growing demographic. Twitter could also be another way to inform citizens of things such as snow bans. Internal Communication An internal communication strategy should ultimately fulfill the expectations that all pertinent and appropriate information is being shared between departments, Commissions, Agencies, boards and Common Council. Implementation of the following items may assist us in enhancing internal communication at City Hall: • In January 2009, 1 wrote Common Council expressing the need to create clear expectations to ensure an acceptable level of interaction between the agencies, boards and commissions with Common Council. After all, many of these bodies exist to offer advice to Council and it is imperative to ensure there is routine communication and reporting taking place. • Common Council should be made aware of all prospective projects being pursued by the City. • Council members should also be regularly informed of all community events and announcements /press conferences. This clearly is not an exhaustive list of current or potential future elements of our City's External and Internal Communication Strategy. 39 Motion: I propose that the city manager present a brief report to Common Council highlighting the key components of our City's internal and external communication strategy. This report will also provide an update on the action being taken with regard the various items outlined above.

Box 1971 Saint john New Brunswick Canada E2L 4L1 Re: Pension teach- in for Council members r City of Saint John Your Worship, as you know the pension plan for the City of Saint John is putting a huge strain on our ability to provide the services our city and its residents need to move forward to be the City we know we can be. I believe it would be very prudent for this new Council to get up to speed as quickly as possible on the workings of a pension plan in order to avoid any misunderstandings and/or mistakes in moving forward on this issue. also believe that it would be important for Council to consult with an expert in the field of pensions. I also believe that it would be important for Council to have a teach -in on pensions from a person that will provide a fresh look at how pensions are dealt with in other jurisdictions and arenas. To this end; I move that Council hire an expert in the field of pensions at the earliest possible date and that this pension expert not be from city staff in order to get a fresh view of pensions and the issues surrounding pensions.

Staff from Buildings and Inspection Services attended at the site while firefighting was still active. It was observed that the Building suffered significant fire and structural damage; the roof had completely collapsed, the third floor and a portion of the second floor had also collapsed. The exterior masonry wall structures were still standing but were not supported as designed due to the collapse of the roof and floor systems, and there was a concern due to the effects of the extreme fire temperatures on the brick -to -mortar bond. A significant portion of the interior of the Building was fire damaged beyond a reasonable point of repair. The Office of the Building Inspector was called to the scene and determined that the Building was in danger of collapse, it was not reasonably salvageable and a situation existed in which there was imminent danger to public safety and imminent danger of serious harm to it and the adjacent building. The Building Official determined that based on these findings, the building required demolition under the emergency provisions in section 190.041 of the Municipalities Act. This section authorizes an official to take any measures necessary to terminate the danger giving rise to the emergency, serve a notice on the owner after the action(s) was taken and provide details of the costs incurred. The costs are chargeable to the owner and become a debt due to the municipality. Section 190 of the Municipalities Act is attached for Council's reference. Pursuant to Section 190 of the Municipalities Act, and in consultation with the City's Purchasing Agent, a demolition contractor with the equipment and experience to undertake such a demolition, Galbraith Construction Ltd., was engaged to demolish the structure and remove the debris from the site to an 42 M &C2012 — 130 - 2 - May 29, 2012 appropriate disposal area. Equipment arrived on site at approximately 3:00 pm on April 25, 2012 and demolition began shortly thereafter. The Building was demolished, the debris removed, and the site made safe as of Friday, May 4, 2012. Pursuant to section 190.041 of the Municipalities Act, a Notice describing the demolition that was undertaken and the costs associated with that demolition was served on the owner of the property on May 29, 2012 (copy of the Notice is attached). Upon approval by Common Council, the outstanding invoice to the demolition contractor will be paid by the municipality and the owner of the property will be billed the full amount ($157,389.27) less the amount of the HST rebate that will be received by the City ($13,331.01) for a total of $144,058.26. Because the invoice is beyond the City Manager's approval level, Common Council approval is required to pay the outstanding invoice. The owner of the Charlotte Street property will then be invoiced by the City and in the event it is not paid, the Province of New Brunswick will be requested to reimburse the City and the amount will be placed on the property tax invoice. It is worthy to note that the property was protected by insurance and that staff has been in contact with the insurance company's representative on this file. RECOMMENDATION Your City Manager recommends that Common Council approve the expenditure of $157,389.27 for the demolition of the property at 127, 131, 135, 137, 139 and 141 Charlotte Street and 127 Princess Street, which will then be invoiced to the property owner.

As a result, I delivered an opinion to Council dated the 20th day of April, 2012 which in turn led to a resolution directing the preparation of an amendment to the Procedural By -Law which would provide for the Mayor's voting only in case of a tie, i.e. the Mayor would have a so- called "casting vote ". It is interesting to note from a historical perspective that the City Government Act (An Act to Amend An Act to Provide for the Government of the City of Saint John, 1936 (S.N.B. 1954, Chapter 159)) provides at s. 10 that the Mayor of the City shall vote on all questions. However, as noted in my opinion to Council dated April 20, 2012, it is the provisions of subsections 10.1(1) and (2) of the Municipalities Act which empower a municipality to adopt a by -law that would provide3 for the Mayor's voting only in the event of a tie: "10.1(1) Unless disqualified to vote by reason of interest or otherwise upon a by -law, resolution, motion or for any other purpose, each member present, including the mayor, shall announce his or her vote openly and individually, and the clerk shall record it, and no vote shall be taken by ballot or by any other method of secret voting, and every vote so taken is of no effect.

[my emphasis] It is clear from the above -noted provisions of the Municipalities Act that there are only two options available to municipalities of the Province respecting the Mayor's participation in Council voting: (1) vote on each matter with respect to which the Mayor is not disqualified, or (2) vote only in instances of a tie vote of the remaining Council members who are not disqualified. Pursuant to the authority given to the municipalities at section 10.1 of the Municipalities Act, we prepared an amendment to the Procedural By -Law which provides that the Mayor shall not vote except to have a casting vote in the event of a tie. It is in order for Council to give first and second reading to the attached amendment, if it wishes.

For Council's information, attached is the report to Council that was submitted at the May 7, 2012 meeting with background and discussion of the proposed changes to the Animal Control By -law, which received first and second reading at that meeting. Staff of Buildings and Inspection Services will be available to discuss this issue and answer any questions at the June 4t' meeting. RECOMMENDATION Your City Manager recommends that this report be received and filed. Respectfully submitted, Amy PoN th, P. Eng., MBA Deputy Commissioner Buildings and Inspection Services P 'ck Woods, CGA C anager 116 OPEN SESSION M &C 2012 —120 May 3, 2012 His Worship Ivan Court And Members of Common Council Your Worship and Councillors: SUBJECT 7.7 City of saint John Animal Control — Update on Contract Discussions with SPCAAR and Amendments to the Saint John Animal Control By -law BACKGROUND During this year's budget deliberations, Common Council reduced the budget for animal control services from $155,000 per year to $80,000 per year. For several years, the City has contracted with the SPCA Animal Rescue ( SPCAAR) and its predecessor to provide animal control services, with the most recent contract having expired on January 31, 2012. Although the SPCAAR continued to provide animal control services to the City for the month of February, the recent reduction has understandably rendered the City unable to receive the same services from the SPCAAR that it has in past years. Since Fall 2011, Staff has been exploring alternatives for the provision of animal control services. Staff solicited the marketplace for service providers by issuing a formal request for expressions of interest in October 2011, with limited response. This was followed by meetings and/or discussions with various possible providers to no avail. The option of in -house animal control was also explored. Staff has been working with the SPCAAR to arrive at mutually acceptable terms and conditions of a service contract. Staff believes an arrangement with the SPCAAR is the best alternative for the City at this time. ANALYSIS Contract Discussions for Dog Control Services For the last number of months, Staff has been working with the SPCAAR to determine what level of service can be provided to the City for the $80,000 that has been allocated in the 2012 budget, recognizing that the service Ievel will have to be reduced. 117 M&C2012 120 - 2 - May 4, 2012 Four key safety issues were identified that must, at a minimum, be enforced: 1. Response to complaints that a dog has bitten or attempted to bite a person, 2. Response to complaints of dogs running at large, 3. Response to injured dogs, and 4. Response to after -hours emergencies as required by the Saint John Police Force. It became clear during negotiations that to stay within the budgeted amount of $80,000, enforcement would be focused on safety issues only. The enforcement of cat control was not considered to be a safety matter. The SPCAAR provided figures to support their explanation of costs to provide dog control only or both dog and cat control. It was clear during the negotiations that the provision of both dog and cat control is a service that is not affordable within the approved budget. Accordingly, the discussions focused on the provision of dog control services only. In approving the reduced 2012 budget, Common Council was aware that animal control services would likely be focused on dog control only. Having said this, the SPCAAR has stated that the cost to deliver dog control services to address the four key safety issues is approximately $105,000. The City budgeted $80,000 for this service, which has resulted in discussions with the SPCAAR respecting how the gap might be bridged. In order to bridge the funding gap and to ensure safety issues are addressed, a number of alternatives were discussed, including the provision of in -kind services by the City. The alternatives considered included the provision of garbage removal, lawn mowing, property maintenance, computer systems support, vehicle maintenance, and snow plowing. The City has also considered, as an in -kind service, demolishing the previous shelter building owned by the SPCAAR and located at 134 Taylor Avenue in the City's North end. It is now a vacant building; a portion of the roof is completely missing and it is the subject of vandalism. There have been reports of children in the neighbourhood entering the building unlawfully. Buildings and Inspection Services and the Fire Department have received numerous complaints about the condition of the building. Given its location in a priority neighbourhood, its proximity to schools, the number of children in the area and its dilapidated condition, the building is considered a hazard to the safety of the public, and is the subject of enforcement under the Unsightly Premises and Dangerous Conditions By -law. If the previous shelter building is not repaired or demolished by the SPCAAR in a satisfactory time period, it is likely that a Notice to Comply to repair or demolish the building will be issued to the SPCAAR within the next 6 months. Demolishing the previous shelter building is considered by Staff as the preferred option; it solves the issue of the funding gap between the City and the SPCAAR and it protects the Crescent Valley neighbourhood from the dangers that may come about with this vacant building in the community. There is capital funding 118 M &C2012 —120 - 3 - May 4, 2012 set aside for demolitions of a strategic nature and it is Staffs view that this proposed demolition would represent a "win -win" for both the City and the SPCAAR. Staff has proposed, subject to the approval of Common Council, to demolish the previous shelter building, in addition to the budgeted amount of $80,000. In turn, the SPCAAR has signaled that it is prepared to provide, for a period of one year, dog control services so that the safety concerns identified above would be addressed. It must be stressed to Council; however, that discussions are still ongoing with the SPCAAR regarding certain outstanding details. Once these discussions have concluded to the satisfaction of both parties, a contract reflecting all terms will be provided to the SPCAAR's Board as well as to Common Council for review, consideration and approval. By -law Amendments Cat Control Staff of Buildings and Inspection Services consulted with the City Solicitor's Office on the issue of required by -law amendments given that there will be no enforcement of cat control with the reduced budget for animal control services. Through these discussions and considering the legal opinion provided by the City Solicitor's Office, it is recommended that any reference to cat control in the Animal Control By -law be removed since the City will not be enforcing any provisions regarding cats. This will mean that the City will no longer be licensing cats, nor will it be responding to complaints of cats running at large or cats that appear to be diseased or injured. Eliminating the provision of cat control service may be considered a step backward by some. In 1996, the Dog Control By -law was amended to include cats, and was subsequently renamed the Animal Control By -law. At the time, the SPCAAR's predecessor was dealing with stray cats as part of their shelter operation and asked Council to consider including cat control in the by -law. The inclusion of cats was intended to help control the stray cat population and to help support ongoing funding for the SPCAAR's predecessor. Proponents of cat control argue that it addresses a health and nuisance problem that comes with stray cats, of which there are many in the City. Stray cat volumes will likely increase without cat control. Another view is that property owners should not have to be subjected to the nuisances caused by a neighbour's cat — this includes public parks and playground property. Some opponents of cat control believe that it is inherent to a cat's disposition to run at large and feel that they should not be subject to impounding if they are roaming the neighbourhood. Some are also opposed to the requirement that cats wear tags and collars due to the concern that the collar may get snagged in a tree or fence and cause injury or death to the cat. 119 M &C2012 —120 -4- May 4, 2012 For Council's information, the volume of cats being impounded under the current by -law has been typically five to six times as much as dogs. On average, the SPCAAR has seized and impounded approximately 200 dogs and 1200 cats per year that were found running at large in the City. Without cat control, it is unclear what will happen to the stray cats that are normally seized by the SPCAAR through the City contract. Another issue to consider that comes with the removal of cat control is that there no longer will be City response to cats that have been injured or appear to be diseased. From time to time, there are calls to Animal Control when a citizen finds an injured or sick cat. Animal Control would pick up the cat and provide medical treatment or euthanasia, whichever was necessary. With the removal of cat control from the by -law, this service will no longer be provided. Other By -law Amendments In addition to the removal of cat control from the by -law (and the subsequent renaming of the by -law to the Saint John Dog Control By -law), staff is recommending other relatively minor amendments. One that is somewhat more significant than strictly a housekeeping item is the length of the "holding period" for a dog once it has been impounded. Currently, the by -law requires that an owner has 48 hours within which to claim their impounded dog before it is officially "released" for adoption or destruction (only in very rare cases would a dog be destroyed — typically only if it is sick or seriously injured). Staff is recommending the holding period be increased to 72 hours. The 48 hour holding period has been problematic at times — it can be difficult to locate an owner within that time period, especially with weekend and holiday hours. It is always in the best interests of the dog, owner and Animal Control officer to reconnect lost dogs with their owners. Adding another 24 hours to contact the owner and have the dog returned to his home is the best outcome of impounding. A review of other by -laws in the Province has shown that all of our neighbouring municipalities, as well as Fredericton have a holding period of 72 hours; Moncton's holding period is 96 hours. Where the majority of the expenses of seizing and impounding a dog is realized in the first 24 hours of impound, adding 24 more hours to the holding period will not result in any additional expense to the City, but offers a better service to citizens and increases the chance of a dog being reunited with its owner. Other minor housekeeping amendments to the By -law are recommended, including: Modifying the by -law to consider actual veterinary practices concerning the frequency of required vaccinations; 120 M&C2012 120 - 5 - May 4, 2012 * Removing the requirement to license breeders and kennels, as this jurisdiction is now with the Province of New Brunswick under the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act; • Clarifying what fees dog owners may face when claiming a dog that has been seized and impounded because it was running at large; these fees include required medical care upon impound and boarding fees; o Exempting dogs in the confines of a municipal Off -Leash Dog Park from the running at large provisions of the By -law; and • Modifying the fine structure so that is reflective of the Municipalities Act as it currently exists. INPUT FROM OTHER SOURCES The City Solicitor's Office has prepared the attached Saint John Dog Control By- law which is reflective of the changes outlined in this report. RECOMMENDATION Your City Manager recommends that Common Council enact the attached Dog Control By -law, giving first and second reading thereto at its meeting of May 7"', 2012, which removes any provisions regarding enforcement of cat control and addresses the items identified in this M &C 2012 -120.

June 1, 2012 Mayor Norton and Saint John Common Council City Hall PO Box 1971 Saint John, New Brunswick E21, 4L1 Dear Mayor Norton and Council Members: Saint John YMCA -YWCA 130 Broadview Ave. Saint John, NB E2L 5C5 506 - 693 -YMCA (9622) www.saintjohny.com On behalf of the Saint John Y, I am requesting the opportunity to meet with Common Council in closed session to discuss the pending land acquisition and update the new council about the upcoming development for the Saint John Y. The Province of New Brunswick has committed to transferring a parcel of land, currently owned by Social Development, to the Saint John Y. The City of Saint John is an integral part of this important community development and has already shown support by closing two streets as well as approving re- zoning of the land. Everyone at the Saint John Y hopes to continue the positive momentum that is so evident in our community. Thank you for your consideration and all of your support to date. Sincerely, Shilo Boucher, CA President and CEO, YM -YWCA of Greater Saint John City of Saint John Honourable Mayor and Council June 11, 2012 The Multicultural Association of Saint John Inc. is a non - profit, non - partisan, non - denominational multicultural association that was formed in 1980 and provincially - incorporated on November 8, 1984. Our Mandate is to actively promote New Brunswick's Policy on Multiculturalism, its goals and objectives throughout the Greater Saint John Region. We are guided by the following principles: • to promote and encourage cultural diversity, its exchange and understanding in Saint John and the surrounding communities. • to develop capacity building initiatives that will allow the Association to coordinate and facilitate communication between individuals, groups, industry, businesses and government with respect to ethno - cultural groups and their heritage for Saint John and its surrounding communities. • to develop and provide resources and opportunities for organizations and individuals that wish to present, promote or protect their diverse cultural assets within Saint John and its surrounding communities. • to assist in the transition and orientation of newcomers and in the process of increase the retention of newcomers to Saint John and its surrounding communities through assisting, hosting, facilitating and or sponsoring various community events, programs, projects and initiatives as they relate to the principles and philosophy of Multiculturalism. Since April 9, 2007 the Multicultural Association of Saint John Inc. has actively delivered a diverse range of multicultural programming activities, events and initiatives to a broad range of stakeholders throughout the City and Region through a sole representative and primary point of contact for our non -profit multicultural association. Our programming and services are aimed at all stakeholders, in all sectors (business, health and education) and all community and public institutions. Participation — Equality — Appreciation — Preservation (Heritage /Culture) - Education Business Sector: We have hosted a Cross - cultural and sensitivity training workshop for stakeholders who seek to ensure a more welcoming and inclusive workplace environment for everyone. For example: Karibuni Workshop and March Multicultural Film Series (a Special Project funded by the Province of New Brunswick Population Growth Secretariat) in 2009, and funded in part with Citizenship and Immigration Canada's (Alberta) and the New Brunswick Museum). Enhanced Orientation and Settlement Services (2008/2009/2010 /2011 /2012): This is a service we provide to newcomers and potential newcomers/business entrepreneurs who seek customized information that specifically meets their needs and interests. MASJ works with registered, approved and accredited Immigration Specialists (Korean, Persian) who's clients arrive in Saint John on a `Site Visit' and an opportunity to provide prospective newcomers visiting our area/region to choose Saint John and provide them with information on our city and region that will best meet their needs and those of their family. MASJ Inc. `sells the city', and promotes our 123 city and region, its diversity, its opportunities and offerings, providing market specific research (when requested) and referrals to other community stakeholders that may be of interests of themselves or their family members (ie. arts, culture, schools, existing programming and services, cultural communities, profession or interest groups etc.). Health Sector: We provide a Newcomer Volunteer Program — Multicultural Tele- Translator Program, to our region's front -line Healthcare workers, which not only provides meaningful opportunities for newcomers to actively participate and volunteer their linguistic skills in a volunteer capacity and at the same time ensure better access to healthcare, healthcare services and timely healthcare information (2011/2012) and a Human Right. Education Sector: Community and Public Institutions: We promote, develop and encourage the development of a Multicultural curriculum development, event development, Human Rights presentations, multicultural event facilitation, coordination and referrals services to local, regional, provincial and international organizations who have indicated an interest in highlighting and celebrating our culturally diverse community, city and region as a priority in ensuring a more welcoming and inclusive community and region.

(Asian Heritage Gala Celebration 2009/2011/2012, Battle of the Arts (2011/2012) Multicultural Enhanced Settlement and Orientation Services: Welcoming and providing customized information on all sectors (business, health, education, and community) to potential newcomers to our region from around the world and in order to encourage settlement in Saint John and the Region, since April 2007. Multicultural Policy Development: Through our primary representative the MASJ Inc. Executive Director has actively represented the Multicultural Association actively at local, municipal, regional, provincial, and national policy consultations, round tables and event advocating the benefits of more inclusive policy development and the importance of ensuring a more welcoming and inclusive workplace environment for everyone. (2009/2010/2011 /2012). For example: Canadian Cancer Society Run For The Cure Planning Committee 2010, KV Early Learning Centre, The ONE Change Inc., Asian Heritage Month Planning Committee (2009/2011/2012), Battle of the Arts 2011/2012, Emergency Preparedness Think Tank Event (2009), Canadian National Sport Policy Consultations (2011), Municipal Policy Development Consultations (2010/2011), and the Multicultural Association of Saint John Inc.'s sole representative will present on behalf of the Association at the up- and - coming Atlantic Human Rights International Conference `Inclusion in Education' in Fredericton New Brunswick on June, 14, 15 and 16th in Fredericton New Brunswick. OUR CHALLENGES: The Multicultural Association of Saint John Inc. has actively delivered these much - needed programs and services without benefit of active municipal support an office or access to a space to operate from since April 2007. The M.A.S.J. Inc. has now successfully sought and received approval of a small amount of funding support from the Federal Government of Canada to support two (2) Celebrate Canada events for Saint John for National Aboriginal Day on June 21, 2012 and Canadian Multiculturalism Day on June 27, 2012. The Multicultural Association of Saint John Inc. continues to advocate better support to remedy this situation as soon as possible. 124 Further, the result is that the broader community and all interested stakeholders (youth, youth -at -risk, seniors, ethno - cultural and cultural community groups, newcomers, immigrants, refugees, citizens, individuals), and all sectors (business, health and education) and all community /public institutions are prevented and excluded from the opportunity to access these much - needed Multicultural Programming and Services, and in our view infringes on and could be viewed as a direct violation of New Brunswick's Policy on Multiculturalism, which supports Human Rights To the best of our knowledge and understanding, existing `multi - cultural' resource space is "at capacity". Further requests seeking access -to and use -of office and resource space has been deferred to the City of Saint John who (as we understand it) retains the authority to provide this much - needed in -kind support to the Multicultural Association of Saint John Inc. We would welcome the opportunity to be actively supported by the City of Saint John, Mayor and Council. Specifically, to establish an office and welcoming centre for the Multicultural Association of Saint John Inc. to operate from that includes a fully accessible washroom facilities (men and women), accessible training/rehearsal space, board room, accessible resource space, a Welcome Reception Area and kitchen facilities, as soon as possible. This much - needed support will provide: • A more effectively and efficiently deliver its programming and services throughout Saint John and region to those who need them most — everyone and in some cases does not exist at all. • The Multicultural Association of Saint John Inc. with the operational capacity to further develop its multicultural programming and services to best meet the needs of our city and region, • The Multicultural Association of Saint John Inc. with the operational capacity to seek further support from various levels of government and all stakeholders in the on -going development and implementation of multicultural programming and services that are welcoming and inclusive of all who wish to participate. • Will permit the M.A.S.J. Inc. Board of Directors to be able to continue to support its primary and sole representative in her good work for our communities and city, as mandated. • Will provide a accessible Multicultural Association that actively promotes New Brunswick's Policy on Multiculturalism, its goals and objectives throughout the Greater Saint John Region. • Will ensure better municipal support for Human Rights in Saint John, New Brunswick. It is clear that a more active community and a strengthening of community and public institutions to include newcomers with more accessible opportunities for all stakeholders to be become better able to participate is needed.

To alleviate the need to issue numerous bid documents throughout the year for various equipment as needed, Materials Management in conjunction with IT have chosen to issue a tender call to establish standing offers for various equipment. The tender closed on Wednesday May 16, 2012 with 7 companies submitting bids. A summary of the bids received is enclosed for your review. ANALYSIS: The following list itemizes the computer network equipment required categorized by blocks of like items. Block A - HP Network Components (eg. Servers) Block B - EMC Components (eg. Storage Devices) Block C - Cisco Switch Components Block D - Boardroom Audio Visual Equipment Block E - Patch Cables Block F - Backup Tapes Block G - Rack Mount Ups Terms of the tender call specified the City's intention to split the award of this tender to more than one vendor by block where all items within one block will be awarded to one vendor. 130 PAGE 2 ANALYSIS CONT'D: The tender call also provided provisions to compare bid prices with established Provincial agreements for the same products. Where Provincial pricing was found to be more advantageous, the particular block would not be awarded and the City would exercise its right to "piggy back" and purchase from the Provincial Agreement. Pricing for items in Block `B" - EMC Storage Components were lower on the Provincial Agreement established with Unis Lumin and therefore we will exercise our option to piggyback on this agreement. FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS: The standing offers will be established for a two (2) year term with the possibility of extending for an additional one (1) year at the City's option. Estimated equipment requirements for 2012 and 2013 are listed below: Funds are available in the IT department's operating and capital budgets to cover the cost of required equipment for 2012. 131 Estimated Usage Block Equipment Type 2012 2013 Block A - HP Network Components $200,000 $170,000 Block B - EMC Components $30,000 $30,000 Block C - Cisco Switch Components $50,000 $50,000 Block D - Boardroom Audio Visual Equip. $20,000 $20,000 Block E - Patch Cables $7,000 $5,000 Block F - Backup Tapes $2,000 $2,000 Block G - Rack Mount Ups $1,000 $25,000 Total $310,000 $302,000 Funds are available in the IT department's operating and capital budgets to cover the cost of required equipment for 2012. 131 PAGE 3 RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the tender for the establishment of a standing offer agreement for computer equipment, for a 2 year period with an option to renew for an additional year, be awarded to the low bidder for each block, as indicated below.

These additional personnel will be allocated from other Service areas leading to no net establishment mcrease. BACKGROUND At its October 11, 2011 meeting, Common Council "RESOLVED that as recommended by the City Manager in the submitted report M&C 2011 -254: Solid Waste Management Service — Collection Decision Common Council: 1. Understand the value of a change to a full "in- house" solid waste collection model — effective September 4h, 2012; The first recommendation supports that "Four additional personnel at the entry Skilled Worker level would also be added to the solid waste complement to handle the increased scope of operations" as written in the submitted report. ANALYSIS Four personnel at the entry Skilled Worker level are expected to be re- allocated from other Service areas to meet this requirement. Two personnel will be added from the Saint John Water establishment and two personnel will be added from the Parks and Public Service establishment. The overall establishment will remain at 293. FINANCIAL ANALYSIS As these positions are included within the current permanent establishment level of 293, there is no additional financial impact on the General Fund Operating Budget. 154 Transportation & Environment Service — Establishment Change June 13, 2012 Report to Common Council, M &C 2012- Page 2 RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that Common Council approve the addition of four permanent full time employees (two positions from Saint John Water and two positions from Parks and Public Spaces Service) to support the Solid Waste Management Service - Outsource Decision.

Patrick Woods, CGA City Manager 155 REPORT TO COMMON COUNCIL June 11, 2012 M &C 2012 -138 His Worship Mayor Mel Norton and Members of Common Council Your Worship and Members of Council: SUBJECT: 47 Sewell Street (PID # 00038588) Retaining Wall at the Corner of Sewell and Dorchester Streets BACKGROUND 4v? a M The City of Saint johu In 2009, a fire at 47 Sewell Street resulted in significant damage to the structure at this location. Following the fire, the property was sold and it is currently owned by Commercial Properties Limited (CPL). Like similar buildings constructed in the late nineteenth and early twentieth century, this building's foundation was constructed against the streets and /or property lines, thereby unintentionally supporting street and sidewalk networks. On July 25, 2009, the fire damaged building at 47 Sewell Street was demolished under the direction of CPL. There was serious concern with public safety with respect to the stability of the remaining stone foundation wall acting as a support structure, which wall is no longer laterally supported, and the significant drop in elevation from street surface to ground surface of the lot. Currently, the old stone foundation wall is essentially acting as a retaining wall for a portion of Sewell and Dorchester streets (including the sidewalks). Said stone foundation wall was obviously not designed for this purpose. ANALYSIS M &C 2011 -203 provided information to Council on potential impacts to street infrastructure, and suggested remediation options to stabilize the slope face along both Sewell Street and Dorchester Street. At the August 15, 2011 session of Common Council, it was resolved that "Council approve construction of a retaining wall as proposed by Commercial Properties Limited and as per the agreement submitted with said report, subject to the approval of engineering plans by the Chief City Engineer and further, authorize the Mayor and Common Clerk to sign the documents. " Unfortunately, that Agreement was taken to Council prior to final approval by Commercial Properties Limited. The agreement provided that upon completion of the wall construction, the footprint of the wall would be conveyed to the City. CPL has now indicated they are not willing to convey the footprint of the wall to the City. CPL will however provide a Bill of Sale to the City for the wall (once 156 M &C 2012 -138 June 11, 2012 Page 2 constructed) with ownership for the wall going to the City; retain ownership of the land on which the wall will sit; and grant an easement to the City for same, as well as an easement for access and for maintenance and repair. FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS The cost of the retaining wall remains the same as provided to Council on August 15, 2011. CPL has provided a lump sum quoted price of $135,000 plus HST as per the attached agreement to construct a design -build pre -cast recon block retaining wall at this site. Following completion of construction of the retaining wall and upon the City receiving an easement for the retaining wall (of which there shall be no cost to the City for said easement), the City shall contribute 50% of costs incurred but no more than half of the price quote of $135,000 plus HST, which includes engineering costs. Any cost savings on the cost of the new retaining wall shall be shared equally between the City and CPL. RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that : 1. Common Council amend its August 15, 2011 resolution by deleting "with said report " and replacing it with "with M&C report No. 2012 -138 dated June 11, 2012. 2. The City enter into the Cost Sharing Agreement generally in the form as is attached to M &C No. 2012 -138, dated June 11, 2012 with Commercial Properties for the construction of the a retaining wall at the corner of Dorchester and Sewell Streets.

Work of this Harbour Cleanup project involves the construction of a lift station at Chesley Drive, new sanitary sewers and force main on Chesley Drive, Hilyard Street, and Station Street that will convey flows from the North end of the City to the newly constructed lift station at Harbour Station. One component of this Project is the redirection of sanitary flows from the HMCS Brunswicker facility to the proposed lift station 10A. Design engineering has determined that the reconfiguration of gravity collector sewers in the vicinity of Fort Latour Drive is problematic due to the congestion of existing underground infrastructure (water mains, sewer lines, oil lines, natural gas lines, power lines) that particularly complicate the collection of sanitary sewer flows from the HMCS Brunswicker facility The most functional and least risky solution involves re- locating the HMCS Brunswicker's sanitary sewer lateral to Chesley Drive rather than to its current location on Fort LaTour Drive, thereby eliminating the risks associated with excavating & installing a new collector sewer pipe through the maze of existing infrastructure. Staff have met and discussed this strategy with Department of National Defence (DND) staff, and DND agree that this is the logical solution, as the risk of damaging significant existing underground infrastructures (& resultant environmental/safety issues) is greatly reduced. DND is willing to allow the City to relocate their sanitary sewer lateral as part of the scope of this project. 176 DND are willing to allow the City, at no cost to the City, to enter the HMCS Brunswicker property to execute this work under the terms and conditions set out in the attached Letter of Intent/Access Agreement. The relocated HMCS Brunswicker sewer line, when installed, will remain a DND responsibility going forward. RECOMMENDATION: 1. That The City of Saint John enter into an agreement with Department of National Defense upon the terms and conditions of the Letter of Intent/Access Agreement attached to M &C 2012 -139, and, 2. That the Mayor and Common Clerk be authorized to sign all necessary documentation. Respectfully submitted, 16;374�u� Ken Forrest, MCIP, RPP Commissioner Planning and Development J.

Patrick Woods, CGA City Manager BI:111 :• REPORT TO COMMON COUNCIL M &C2012 -158 June 13, 2012 His Worship Mayor Mel Norton and Members of Common Council Your Worship and Members of Council: SUBJECT: Completion of the Outdoor Plaza Work — Harbourfront Residences at Three Sisters BACKGROUND an The City of Saint john At the March 17, 2008 meeting of Common Council, Council authorized the execution of a Section 39 Agreement to govern the development of a new residential development located at 230 Water Street/243 Prince William Street. At paragraph 8, the Agreement provides: 8. That the City will carry out the following work and /or services at its sole cost and expense: b) i) Retain the services of Daniel K. Glenn Ltd to prepare working drawings and specifications to design the outdoor plaza between the two buildings of the development and the sidewalk onwards to the closed street formerly Murder Hill, referred to in Article 8(e) which design will include sidewalks, ornamental lighting, landscaping, waterproofing, parking lines, and furnishings and other work associated with or resulting from the above mentioned improvements, which specifications for the work shall be of similar quality and standards as set out in the specifications for the proposed Three Sisters Plaza. The drawings and specifications shall be subject to the approval of both parties, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. b) ii) The City shall carry out the work arising out of the plans and specifications set out in article 8(b) except for the waterproofing which shall be carried out by the Developer and the City shall contribute $20,000.00 towards the cost of waterproofing the Plaza and further provided that the maintenance, repair, and replacement of the plaza and 190 M &C2012- 158 June 13, 2012 Page 2 any landscaping, furnishings, and lighting therein shall be carried out and paid for by the Developer after the work is completed. c) Coordinate the design and construction of the work described in article 8(b) so as to ensure the work is completed by the date the Developer proposes to complete construction of the first building of the development. ANALYSIS As indicated above, the City is contractually obligated to construct a public outdoor space on what is essentially the roof of the Harbourfront Residences at Three Sisters condominium building. Staff has worked with the Glenn Group (formerly Daniel K. Glenn Ltd.) to develop the design drawings and specifications for this space, which is accessed from Prince William Street. Typically, once the drawings and specifications for a project are complete, the City would proceed to public tender for construction. For this project, a public tender call for construction is not feasible nor is it desirable. Many of the components of the outdoor space are integrated into the building itself and their construction would impact the integrity of the building. As a result, the contractors working on the building need to be responsible for the construction of the plaza as well. The City's Procurement Policy does allow for non - competitive sole source bids under special circumstances. As indicated above, the construction of the outdoor plaza affects the structural integrity and weather - tightness of the building. For this reason, staff have requested a cost proposal for the work from the building contractor. This approach has been reviewed with the City's Purchasing Department and Aith the Commissioner of Administrative Services. The cost proposal received from the building contractor, Milestone Construction, exceeds the approved budget for this project. Staff have worked with the Glenn Group and Milestone Construction to review the proposed cost and to identify areas for potential cost savings while still allowing for the construction of an outdoor space of similar quality of the original design. One such area where a cost savings was identified was in the supply of the decorative light standards for the plaza. In order to save an estimated $12,000 plus HST cost for the purchase of new decorative light standards, the City will re -use existing decorative light standards that are currently in stock. FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS A total of $323,000 has been provided in the 2012 General Fund Capital Program for the completion of the Outdoor Plaza. After costs for consulting services and waterproofing of the Outdoor Plaza are subtracted from the available funds, a total of $274,810 is available for construction of the Outdoor Plaza. 191 M &C2012 -158 June 13, 2012 Page 3 The submitted cost for construction of the plaza from Milestone Construction is $318,391.08, including the City's estimated HST rebate, resulting in a budget shortfall of $43,581.08. This budget shortfall will be managed within the overall 2012 General Fund Capital Program. RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the construction of the Outdoor Plaza at the Harbourfront Residences at Three Sisters be awarded to Milestone Construction at the submitted price of $347,854 and further, that the City Solicitor be directed to draft an appropriate agreement for this work subject to the future review and approval of Common Council.

The Plan received approval from the Province on February 21, 2012. During the process of adopting the Municipal Plan, there were three development applications that were either in the approvals process or had received prior approval in advance of the Plan receiving final reading and now require amendments to the Municipal Plan to allow for their eventual development. 3795 Loch Lomond Road (PIDs 55214910 and 00329144) The landowner, Dan Estey, submitted an application to rezone a parcel of land having an area of 8.2 hectares from "RS -l" One and Two Family Suburban Residential to "RR" One Family Rural Residential in order to permit the development of a rural residential subdivision in November 2011. Common Council held a Public Hearing and gave first and second reading to the rezoning on January 30, 2012 and gave third reading to the rezoning on February 13, 2012. As the rezoning was occurring concurrently with the adoption process for the new Municipal Plan, the lands do not have the proper Municipal Plan designation to permit the rural residential development. An amendment to the Municipal Plan is required to redesignate these lands from Rural Resource to Rural Residential in order to recognize this now approved development. 193 M &C-- 2012 -162 -2- June 14, 2012 Abigail Place (2377 Loch Lomond Road PID 55196588) This 12 lot Rural Residential Subdivision received the assent of Common Council on February 28, 2011, and approval of the Development Officer on March 2, 2011 prior to the adoption of the Growth Strategy and Plan SJ. As this is a previously approved development, an amendment to the Municipal Plan is required to redesignate these lands from Rural Resource to Rural Residential in order to recognize this previously approved development. 356 Eldersley Avenue (PID 00330159) Lands for this 12 -lot rural residential subdivision were rezoned from "RS -1" One and Two Family Suburban Residential to "RR" One Family Rural Residential in 2004 and the subdivision plan received the assent of Common Council on July 5, 2004. As this is a previously approved development, an amendment to the Municipal Plan is required to redesignate these lands from Rural Resource to Rural Residential in order to recognize this previously approved development. RECOMMENDATION: That Common Council authorize the initiation of the process to consider the following amendments to the Municipal Development Plan: 1. Rural Resource to Rural Residential for the properties at 3795 Loch Lomond Road shown on the attached map, being PID numbers 55214910 and 00329144; 2. Rural Resource to Rural Residential for the property at 2377 Loch Lomond Road shown on the attached map, being PID number 55196588; and 3. Rural Resource to Rural Residential for the property 356 Eldersley Avenue (PID) shown on the attached map, being PID number 00330159.

The building's roof has collapsed and there is fire damaged debris, bricks and glass scattered around the building, in the grass and on the sidewalks of Victoria and Cunard Streets. The fire caused the collapse of the building's roof and chimney, destruction to much of the building's interior finishes and damage to portions of the upper exterior walls. There is fallen debris on the floors of the building and the window panes are broken in several locations. Fire - damaged materials are hanging from the building, broken and loose glass is hanging in window frames and there is debris on the property. The debris that is hanging from the building may become loose, fall and cause harm to anyone passing close by and the debris on the ground is dangerous. The building was occupied by the daughter of the deceased owner until the time of the fire and has since remained vacant. The building is not structurally sound and it is not safe to enter. This individual has attempted to keep the building secure since the fire, however, she reported that recently, a board at the front ground level of the building was removed and that copper was stripped from the building. This individual was attempting to re- secure the building as quickly as possible, but she expressed concerns in keeping it secure. 203 M &C2012 -150 -2- June 15, 2012 Because the building is a hazard to the safety of the public by reason of dilapidation and unsoundness of structural strength and by reason of it being vacant and unoccupied, a Notice to Comply was issued on May 29, 2012. On that same day, the building was posted with the Notice and service was affected on the deceased owner's daughter as next of kin. On May 30, 2012, two daughters of the owner met with staff and advised that they were concerned with the building's dangerous state, that the building was not insured and that the estate of their deceased parent has not been settled as the executor of the will predeceased the owner. They stated that they did not have the financial means to repair or demolish the building and staff explained the process of cost recuperation as outlined in Section 190 of the Municipalities Act. Compliance with the Notice was required by June 13, 2012. An inspection conducted the following day found that there had not been compliance. Attached for Council's reference are the Notice to Comply that was issued, the affidavit attesting to service of the Notice on the daughter of the owner and an affidavit attesting to the building's posting. Also included are photographs of the building. The Municipalities Act indicates that where a Notice to Comply has been issued arising from a condition where a building has become a hazard to the safety of the public by reason of dilapidation, unsoundness of structural strength, or being vacant or unoccupied, the municipality may cause the building to be demolished. As required in the Act a report from an engineer is attached, forming part of the issued Notice to Comply, and provides evidence to the building's condition and resulting hazard to the safety of the public. As is written in the Act that a municipality must commence in the proceedings of remedial action, approval of Common Council is required prior to starting demolition activities at this property. Cost of the demolition work is approximated at $25,000 to $30,000 and will take approximately 4 weeks before it is complete. Staff will seek competitive bidding in accordance with the City's purchasing policy and the cost of the work will be billed to the registered property owner's next of kin. If the bill is left unpaid, it will be submitted to the Province with a request for reimbursement. Staff in the Province's Department of Finance has been made aware of the circumstances surrounding ownership of the building and their suggestions on how to settle the estate have been forwarded to the next of kin. 204 M &C2012 -150 -3- June 15, 2012 RECOMMENDATION Your City Manager recommends that Common Council direct one or more of the Officers appointed and designated by Council for the enforcement of the Saint John Unsightly Premises and Dangerous Buildings and Structures By -law, arrange for the demolition of the building at 53 Victoria Street (PID # 55036461), in accordance with the applicable City purchasing policies.

AA 20131 WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP WOMENS TACKLEFOOTBALL SAINT JOHN, NEW SRUNSW/CK CANADA June 11, 2012 City of Saint John Mayor and Council, Your endorsement of the 2013 IFAF Women's World Tackle Football Championship helped the host committee obtain the rights to bring this great event to Saint John. (Council meeting Oct 2011) In the planning of the $1.09 million budget we hoped to receive funding from all levels of government. We realize Saint John is unable to provide cash funding, however, the committee is asking the City of Saint John to secure the Canada Games Stadium for 12 days starting July 31 - Aug 10, 2013 as an in kind sponsorship for no charge. The Canada Games Stadium refurbishment was largely due to the City of Saint John providing over $2 million to create a community field facility in 2010. With 8 countries coming to Saint John it is a wealth of investment as outlined in the attached Economic Impact study by the Province of New Brunswick. We are moving forward with the Province of NB and the Federal Government on a proportional cost share and are at our deadline (Formerly May 31,2012 adjusted to June 3,2012) for support. Any intervention from council would be appreciated as it will be disheartening to the people of Saint John and New Brunswick to lose such a great opportunity. Your response is awaited, Sincerely, Larry E Harlow Chairman, 2013 Football Fever 30 Parkwood Ave Saint John,NB E2K 51-8 241 3FpOTBALL FF L� j` ...CATCH IT ! Sport Tourism Economic Assessment Model (STEAM) Report 2013 IFAF Women's World Tackle Football Championships Preamble: The results of this pre -event economic impact analysis are intended to act as a guide and are not considered definitive of the actual event. All projections should be considered the event's potential economic impact. The projections are based on standardized spending estimates that may or may not reflect that of the event's attendees. In addition, the projections are based on the organizer's assumptions regarding attendance, composition and characteristics. These forecasts are subject to uncertainty and evolving events, therefore actual results may vary from forecasted results. Additionally, these forecasts only recognize the economic benefits of the event, and do consider any displacement or substitution costs that may occur as a result of hosting the event. The combined total of visitor, capital, and operational spending as a result of hosting the 2013 IFAF Women's World Tackle Football Championships are estimated to total $3,385,000. These expenditures will generate a total of $6,575,000 of economic activity in the province, of which $4,467,000 will be in the City of Saint John. The Championships will support a total of $1,901,000 in wages and salaries for New Brunswick as a whole. The net increase in economic activity in the province as a result of aggregate spending due to the event is $2,900,000 (GDP). The total level of taxes supported by the Championships is estimated at $1,208,000. Of this, $532,000 is allocated to the provincial government. The STEAM is based on the Canadian Tourism Research Institute / The Conference Board of Canada TEAM model, which is the pre- eminent economic impact assessment model in Canada. TEAM has been created using a sophisticated input /output methodology and econometric modelling techniques, and utilizes the latest data available from Statistics Canada in addition to incorporating the local and provincial tax structure of communities.

We were the first provincial and inter - provincial league for senior players and the first provincial league for U 18 players. In 2010 Canada entered the first ever Women's World Tackle Championship and brought home silver. This upstart program cost each player over $4,000 to participate. In 2013 we will host the first ever World Tournament of its kind in Canada for eight teams from around the world with over 500 participants including players, coaches, support staff and officials. The final eight will be determined through elimination tournaments where necessary, with only Canada and gold medal USA receiving exemptions. Today in 2012, Canadian athletes prepare to embark on a journey to achieve their personal goals of representing their country on home field in Saint John,NB. Our mission and goal is to provide a world class tournament that will leave a legacy fund for female athlete, coaching and officiating development.

As per the attached recommendation from the Saint John Waterfront Development Corp discussions are ongoing to finalize a formal lease for the use of the space and the final lease will be presented to Common Council for approval within 90 days. Recommendation That Common Council approve the attached Occupancy Agreement respecting the between the City of Saint John and Her Majesty the Queen in Right of Canada as represented by the Minister of Fisheries and Oceans and that the Mayor and Common Clerk be authorized to sign the Interim Occupancy Agreement. Respectfully submitted, )'s, trick Woods, CGA C144 MANAGER 259 Report to Common Council June 15, 2012 On June 14, 2012 a tentative lease agreement was reached between Saint John Waterfront Development (SJWD), acting as agent for the City of Saint John, and Public Works and Government Services Canada ( PWGSC), acting on behalf of the Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO) regarding the lease of buildings and premises, known as Lot 2008 -2 on the Canadian Coast Guard site (now known as Fundy Quay). The final federal government processing of this lease will take upwards of three weeks and is subject to final approval by the City of Saint John. The closing date for the purchase and sale of Lot 2008 -2 will be on June 27, 2012 and this compressed timeline has resulted in the following measures to be put in place to ensure an efficient lease and closing transaction; 1. Monday, June 18 : SJDC and PWGSC to finalize lease terms 2. Tuesday, June 19 : Submit offer to lease to PWGSC 3. Thursday, June 21 : DFO lease approval 4. Friday, June 22 : PWGSC - issue a Letter of Award Since the final executed lease will not be available for Common Council on June 18, 2012 an "Interim Occupancy Agreement" has been prepared to provide for post closing continued occupancy for DFO on the terms of the lease. The final executed lease commencement date will coincide with the closing date. Highlights of agreement: • Three year lease with DFO option to terminate after two years with 6 months notice - essentially guaranteed revenue for 2.5 years. • Annual rental rate for buildings and premises = $436,000 • DFO will pay taxes for Lot 2008 -2 = estimated to be $123,000 • DFO responsible for all repairs and maintenance for all buildings, structures, and property for the term of agreement. Therefore, Saint John Waterfront Development recommends the approval of the Interim Occupancy Agreement to avoid extending the closing date for the purchase.

Box 1971 Saint John, NB Canada E2L 4L1 I www.saingohn.ca 267 M & C #2012 -145 June 14, 2012 His Worship Mayor Mel Norton and Members of Common Council Your Worship and Councillors: SUBJECT: Potential Stop -up and Closure and Subsequent Sale of Vimy and Freedom Courts BACKGROUND: City of Saint John The Province of New Brunswick has agreed to convey a 1.2 hectare (3 acre) parcel of land located east of Churchill Boulevard and south of Somerset Street to Elias Management Group Inc. The Elias Group proposes to develop a seniors multi -unit residential building on the site with possible future buildings as well. In order for this proposal to proceed, Elias had submitted a request to Council to stop -up and close two City owned streets; Vimy and Freedom Courts (see attached survey plans). Once closed, it was the intent of the Elias Group to purchase the closed parcels of land in order to create the land holding required to accommodate the intended development. Common Council, at its May 7, 2012 meeting (M & C #2012 -122) resolved to set the Public Hearing date of June 18, 2012 for consideration of the stop -up and closure of both Vimy and Freedom Courts. In addition to the above, Council had also resolved to authorize the Elias Group to make application for variances from the standards of the City Zoning By -law that involve in part, the "to be" closed streets. This application is to be considered by the Planning Advisory Committee at its meeting of Tuesday, June 19`}', 2012. ANALYSIS: Real Estate and Planning staff has met with the Elias Group and the Province to discuss the proposed street closures, of which the most recent meeting was held on June 70' City staff expressed reservation with the request to close both publicly owned streets as this would prevent the future construction of a street and/or pedestrian connection through this site to a large developable adjacent parcel, which is owned by the City. .: Closure of Vimy and Freedom Courts - 2 - June 14, 2012 The City owned land is comprised of two properties, identified as PID #'s 411876 and 371948 (see attached map). In total, this property occupies an area of approximately 3.65 hectares (9 acres). Due to the challenging topography of this site, municipal services would need to be extended from Churchill Boulevard via Freedom or Vimy Courts to service this City property. Providing greater access into and out of this neighbourhood was envisioned by the Crescent Valley Plan, which was prepared by the Province and is strongly supported by the City's Municipal Plan. Better access would facilitate development in this Intensification Area and enhance the existing transportation network for vehicles, transit users and pedestrians. From the site plan that Elias Group has submitted to the City, the proposed building crosses the total width of Vimy Court while Freedom Court is only partially encumbered. Shifting the building off the Freedom Court right -of -way is appropriate and desired to ensure continued public access is available to the City owned property. In addition, it would also align with the proposed access on the opposite side of Churchill Boulevard for the intended YM/YWCA development. The proponent for the senior's complex has agreed to withdraw his request to have Freedom Court stopped -up and closed. A copy of this letter is attached to this report for Council's review. City staff further discussed with Elias Group /Province the need to further extend Freedom Court to the rear of the Provincial property which abuts the City owned land. Discussion ensued regarding the possibility of realigning and reconstructing Freedom Court, along with the municipal infrastructure contained within it. To minimize the need to shift the senior's housing complex on the site towards Somerset Street, City staff agreed to consider the above mentioned options, which would be detailed in a cost sharing agreement between the City and Elias/Province. As these discussions occurred only recently, staff has not had an opportunity to investigate and prepare a legal document that would contain the above in a Purchase and Sale Agreement of Vimy Court, should it be stopped -up and closed. Should this approach become the preferred solution, staff will be back to Council to set out the approach and seek Council's approval. In the essence of time and to not jeopardize the process for the Public Hearings for consideration of the street closures, Council, if it is in agreement with the recommendation contained in this report would allow for first and second reading of the By -law to stop -up and close Vimy Court with the intent that third reading would be withheld until staff brought forward details in a legal document to accommodate the realignment/reconstruction of Freedom Court. Also, it is recommended that the Public Hearing proceed as advertised for the consideration of the street closure for Freedom Court but that First and Second Reading not be given. 269 Closure of Vimy and Freedom Courts 3, June 14, 2012 RECOMMENDATION: Whereas Common Council by resolution adopted May 7, 2012 fixed June 18, 2012 as the date for the Public Hearings to consider the stopping -up and closing of Vimy and Freedom Courts, and Whereas the advertisements required by the Municipalities Act have occurred. It is recommended: 1. That Common Council hold the said Public Hearings; 2. That should Common Council desire to proceed to stop -up and close Vimy Court, it should proceed with First and Second Readings only; and that Third Reading be held in the event that an agreement is reached by the City of Saint John with Elias Management Group Inc. and the Province of New Brunswick for the reconstruction of Freedom Court; and 3. That Common Council postpone First and Second Readings for the stopping -up and closing of Freedom Court. Respectfully submitted, F Ke7Vorrest, MCIP RPP Commissioner of Planning and Development J.

The repeal is now law and the pension plan can be managed as a by -law. A lot of work was put into completing this process and it is imperative that we keep the momentum going. The Province has also introduced significant changes to the Pension Benefits Act that will allow us to explore reform options that did not previously exist. On Wednesday senior staff and I met with the Superintendent of Pensions and Susan Rowland, the Chair of the Provincial Task Force on Protecting Pension Plans. At the conclusion of our meeting the task force indicated that if requested by Council, they would be willing to work with each of our four labour groups and management to provide a recommendation to Council for a pension solution. Ms. Rowland has requested that no bylaw amendments to the pension plan be put forward while the discussions are ongoing. I recommend that we ask the Task Force to take on this task. This will provide our City with an arm's length and independent means by which an affordable and sustainable pension solution can be prepared. INI Mil itM1���111�[I]i;� It is recommended that: Common Council request the assistance of the Provincial Task Force on Protecting Pension Plans to work with the plan members (active and retired) and the City of Saint John to explore options and provide an affordable and sustainable pension reform recommendations) and /or solution.

However as we all know our streets are in terrible condition. Perhaps we could re- arrange our work priorities so that our Work Crews in each area of the city could be empowered so as to fix all the "Pot Holes and major Cracks" first before we start re- paving entire streets. I fully realize that we are short of funding but it would be better to repair all the streets first with the funding that we have instead of just re- paving a few streets. The condition and appearance of our streets is not just important to all of our citizens but if we want to "Sell our City" and be "Open for Business" then we must be aware of the importance to maintain it.

If this is not possible would request that we engage a knowledgeable and Independent Pension Expert to meet with us as soon as possible so that we can all have questions answered that we might have to move us forward on the Pension issue. Names to be provided by Council. In my opinion this is of upmost importance to have someone that is fully knowledgeable on Pension Issues so that we all can be informed. I fully realize and appreciate that several members of our Senior Staff are knowledgeable but I believe that we need someone who specializes in this field and who is independent from the city.

Canada E2L4L1 296 The City of Saint John June 18, 2012 His Worship Mel Norton and Members of Common Council Your Worship and Councillors: Subject: Pay -by -Phone parking option for parking customers As you are aware Common Council has approved increases in parking fees and fines. Providing customers with convenient methods of payment for the increased rate in fines is one way in which we can secure more timely payment. In addition, convenient payment for parking violations, helps customers from delaying payment, therefore avoiding unnecessary fine increases and even potential appearances in traffic court. Customers currently can pay for hourly /daily parking at parking lots, metered and display parking using cash or credit. A convenient way in which customers in many of Canada's most dynamic cities avoid a violation at an expired meter or pay & display location is through payment by mobile phone or also know as a pay -by- phone. One example is Vancouver, where customers can pay parking meters from their cellphone, get a text warning before the meter expires and top up the meter with the amount of minutes required to avoid a violation without going outside. This approach simplifies paid parking for our customers. The technology is currently being used in many Canadian Cities such as Vancouver, Winnipeg and Calgary. Some reports suggest that revenue can be boosted from implementing the service. Pay -by -phone options are widely being adopted and can help eliminate obstacles or challenges to accessing our business areas, such as Uptown Saint John. This is what customers and our citizens are coming to expect from their city, service provider and the Parking Commission of Saint John. Motion: Direct the Parking Commission to investigate the feasibility of a pay -by -phone parking system and report back to council with a recommendation in six weeks.

Canada E2L 4LI 297 //,5-- June 18, 2012 His Worship Mel Norton and Members of Common Council Your Worship and Councillors: Subject: Text -to -Pay (Mobile Payment) option for paying parking tickets As you are aware Common Council has approved increases in parking fees and fines. Providing customers with convenient methods of payment for the increased rate in fines is one way in which we can secure more timely payment. In addition, convenient payment for parking violations helps customers from delaying payment, therefore avoiding unnecessary fine increases, mailing reminders, processing of summonses and appearances in traffic court. Customers can currently pay for parking tickets by mail (cheque or money order); in person at the Payment Centre (cash, cheque, money order, interac, Visa, MasterCard, Amex) or after hours payment slot; and telephone (Visa, MasterCard, or Amex). Text -to -pay is a safe and secure transaction that allows for payment without a credit card or banking information. The charge using a text -to -pay system (mobile payment) is added to your mobile phone bill or deducted from your balance on a pre -paid account. This allows a customer who receives a violation to quickly pay using a mobile device, without the use of cash, cheque, or credit card. Text -to -pay (mobile payment) options are widely being adopted and can help eliminate obstacles or challenges for timely payment. Lowering the barrier for payment is one way in which the quality of service we provide becomes more aligned with the tax rate and the city is better positioned to secure funds in a timely manner from this revenue stream. Motion: Direct the Parking Commission to investigate a text -to -pay (mobile payment) system for submitting parking violations and report back to council with a recommendation in six weeks.

Background: If we look at Harbour Station, where people bought floor tiles for $75.00 each, or the Imperial Theatre, Lily lake Pavilion and the Horticultural Society involvement with that project, this makes perfect sense to me. We can involve interested partners and create a People's Park built and owned by the public. Obviously we would need a coordinator and there would have to be standards adhered to but we could have trees planted and benches donated in memory of loved ones. Plaques on the donated items would recognize the donors. Details could be worked out if council likes the concept.

Canada E2L 4L7 299 The City of Saint John June 18, 2012 Your Worship and Members of Common Council Subject: Revenue Generating Routes for Saint John Transit Commission Motion: Be it resolved that Saint John Common Council request the Saint John Transit Commission to investigate revenue generating routes to Sussex potash mines and Point Lepreau generating station to transport workers from Grand Bay Westfield, Saint John, Rothesay, Quispamsis and Hampton to the Sussex mines and reverse route to point Lepreau. Further to this, may council request that the transit commission closely inspect the Cruise ship passenger business, in an effort to gain some business in tourism. Additionally discussions could be held with the new District Education Council for transporting students throughout the new Southern New Brunswick Anglophone School District in an effort to increase revenues. By generating more revenue at peak and preferred times there would be more funds to restore and improve service during low traffic times. Background: During the election campaign, many people were concerned about cutbacks to transit services. We all know that City transit is subsidized and the price of a ticket only covers about 50 percent of the cost to transport the customer. I feel we need to take the focus off finding more funding to subsidize transit and try to generate more revenue wiithout raising the cost of fairs within the City. This would in no way hinder or restrain the commission if they are looking at other ways to improve services in the short term, but provide revenue for long term sustainability.

I am well aware that everyone is waiting and hoping that the Province is going to come thru with a major proposal which will cure our pension woes in short order. Personally, until I see the exact proposal, I consider this to be an unrealistic hope, although I would like nothing better than for this albatross to be taken off our backs and the deficit eliminated. Since I cannot imagine that this is going to happen in months, let alone weeks, I feel that we must address the makeup of the Pension Board immediately. We cannot let this sit for weeks or months with the excuse that we are waiting to hear from the Province who are going to save us. The Citizens expect us to act. The new Pension Board would be an "interim" board, serving at OUR pleasure, and can be disbanded if and when we decide. As Council now has control over our Pension Plan, have we also the option of changing the legislation concerning the makeup of the Pension Board? MOTION: That The City Solicitor prepare a concise report for Council outlining the procedure by which we will be able to disband the current pension board and appoint a new interim board made up of qualified financial professionals who will advise us on current pension issues, as required, and be part of the team who will make recommendations and advise us concerning the proposed Provincial Pension Plan or such other such Plan at such time as may be prudent.

The effect of the proposed amendments would be to change the delivery date of Council's agenda kit from the Friday immediately preceding a regular Council meeting to the Tuesday immediately preceding such meeting. We have prepared and arranged translation of the amendments in question. The changes listed below have been made to reflect the clear intention expressed in Mayor Norton's correspondence. Those changes are as follows: (1) We changed reference to "officials" of the corporation to "officers" of the corporation. (2) We added a sentence at the very end of Section 8.7 which is exactly the same as the last sentence to Section 8.6. This was required in order for the by -law to be consistent. (3) At Section 8.10, we changed that portion of the provision which read "...the 4:00 pm Monday deadline established by Section 8.10 and before 4:00 pm on the Thursday" to "...the 4:00 pm Monday deadline established by Section 8.9 but before 4:00 pm on the Thursday ". The Monday deadline referred to in Section 8.10 is established at Section 8.9. P.O. Box 1971 Saint John, NB Canada E2L 4L1 I wwwsaintjohn.ca I C.P. 1971 Saint John, N. -B. Canada E2L 4L1 303 Common Council June 14, 2012 Re: Amendment to Procedural By -Law City Solicitor Page 2 (4) Section 8.11 references requests received by the Clerk "pursuant to Section 8.11" respecting items for the Supplemental Agenda. This appears to be a typo. We have changed the latter to "Section 8.10 ", as 8.10 is the provision which stipulates that a request may be made to the Clerk for her to include in a Supplemental Agenda a submission filed after 4:00 pm Monday deadline. (5) At Section 8.14, there was reference to "a matter automatically tabled pursuant to Section 8.14 ". This also was another typo. We changed it to Section 8.13, which provision provides for a matter to be automatically tabled. At Section 8.14, we also reworded the sentence "at the same meeting that it is tabled" to "at the same meeting at which it is tabled" and moved it to the beginning of the sentence. This, we felt, made the sentence more clear. (6) At Section 8.15, it was stated: "Any matter included on the Supplemental Agenda for a regular meeting ... ". We removed the words "for a regular meeting" as we felt that they were superfluous. Having sent the amendments to be translated, the translator responded with the advice that there are a number of internal inconsistencies in the current French version of the by -law which lead to uncertainty in its interpretation. We reviewed the French version and agree. We therefore recommend that Council direct the Common Clerk to have the entire French version of the Procedural By -Law revised to properly reflect the English version.

Ltd. - City Lands Common Council received at its meeting of the 4th day of August, 2009, correspondence from Mr. Walter Vincent respecting possible development of property owned by 501631 N.B. Ltd., Southern N.B. Railway (NBSR) and the City of Saint John, Mr. Vincent, in his correspondence, described himself as the controlling shareholder of the numbered company. The land is in the Seaside Park vicinity and indeed the City land in question is a portion of the Park. As you can see this matter has been outstanding for some time and in fact the topic was first raised in the 1990's and in 2007 1 provided Common Council with a written opinion respecting the prospect of an easement over City property in order to provide access to the property of the numbered company. Councillor Farren had inquired of me in 2011 as to the status of the referral of this matter and I replied that it was "firmly on the back burner ". That was not written facetiously but rather in realistic recognition of the circumstances of this matter and other land related files requiring attention. We are now able to advise Council with respect to Mr. Vincent's request and it will begin with a brief background of the proposed development and the City's involvement to date. The numbered company (the "Owner ") has title to two (2) parcels of land lying to the south of the portion of the New Brunswick Southern Railway line which runs from Lancaster to the Port; it is a portion of the Carleton City of Saint John Branch Railway. The most southerly lot is bounded on the east by Seaside Park, on the north by City land expropriated for the Western Beaches collector sewer, on the west by lands owned by the City and on the south by the Bay of Fundy. The second parcel is bounded on the north and east by lands owned by New Brunswick Southern Railway ( "NBSR ") and on the south by City land expropriated for the above -noted collector sewer. The Owner most recently submitted a proposal in May of 2008 through the Terrain Group to develop the above -noted lands together with parcels of land owned by the City and NBSR. The original proposal was to construct a seventy -nine (79) unit townhouse development on an extension of the western end of Sea Street with a tie into the southern end of Bardsley Avenue. In June of 2008 the Planning Department, as per the long- established process, circulated a memorandum to various City Departments and utility providers outlining the Owner's _- proposal. While the memorandum noted that the proposed development required a SAINT JOHN P.O. Box 1971 Saint John, NB Canada E2L 41 I www.saintjohn.ca I C.P. 1971 Saint John, N. -B. Canada E2L 4L1 -------� 309 2 Common Council June 14, 2012 rezoning and subdivision approval, it further noted quite correctly that before any approvals are sought three issues required resolution: (1) the need for an agreement between the City and the Owner for the purchase of City property required to access the Owner's land; (2) a similar agreement between the Owner and NBSR for the purchase of land owned by the latter; and (3) the need for an agreement between the Owner and NBSR permitting the Owner to cross a working rail line. The City land required by the Owner was the southern portion of Seaside Park and a right to cross the lands expropriated by the City for the collector sewer. The Owner proposed a land exchange whereby the City would be given part of the lands the Owner would acquire from NBSR and a portion of the Owner's lands, while the Owner would receive the southern portion of Seaside Park and parts of four (4) parcels of City -owned lands. The Owner proposed to accomplish its development in several phases, the first of which proposed to extend Sea Street westwardly into Seaside Park. Responses to the Planning Department memorandum were varied. Building Inspections advised that because of the geography of the land, engineered soil reports would be required to ensure that slope failure would not occur. Municipal Operations commented that there should be no buildings over sewers and that City lands should not be sold. Development requirements for water quantity and pressure, storm water collection and disposal, sewers and road construction were itemized. Additionally the response from Municipal Operations raised three (3) issues: (1) slope stability; (2) access to and from the development, and (3) Seaside Park. The response from the Fire Department pertained to street design, the turning of fire apparatus in a cul -de -sac, fire separations in the units and hydrant installation. The response from Leisure Services also raised the issue of the sale of part of Seaside Park. In August of 2008 the Owner, through Terrain Group, advised the City's Real Estate Department that the Owner had not been successful with its negotiations with NBSR and proposed an alternate arrangement between the Owner and the City under which the City would convey 1.6 hectares of Seaside Park to the Owner and the Owner, in turn, would convey 2.4 hectares to the City. Of this 2.4 hectares, 1,2 hectares is steeply sloped along the shore and, accordingly, is not suitable for development. The Owner's revised development proposal would see thirty (30) townhouse units built on an extension of Sea Street. This alternate proposal, however, still required the extension of Sea Street, the land exchange between the Owner and the City as well as the required rezoning and subdivision approvals. In September of 2008, Staff determined that the land exchange proposal put forward by the Owner was not in the City's best interests because the lands to be conveyed to the City were largely unusable owing to the aforementioned steep slope. Moreover, the lands the Owner was seeking to have conveyed to it by the City are perceived to be part of 310 3 Common Council June 14, 2012 Seaside Park and, accordingly, Staff anticipated considerable opposition from residents should part of Seaside Park be sold for development. Finally, Staff could not support the extension of Sea Street without an alternative access. This position was communicated to Terrain Group in September of 2008. Though it is a matter of policy and not of law, we have consulted with the Commissioner of Development & Growth who has advised that he continues to be of the view that disposition of the City lands in question is not advisable. It should be noted that the Owner first approached the City in the mid -1990s with a proposal for development. At that time, the Owner's development proposal required that it obtain land from the City and NBSR. The Owner endeavoured to negotiate terms with the City and NBSR and was not successful in that regard. The outstanding issues at that time were access over the working rail line, secondary access and the heavily sloping topography of the land. In 2007, 1 wrote to Common Council advising that "the City, as owner of the lands comprising the former Shoreline Railway, has the authority to grant a right of way over its lands to 501631 N.B. Ltd. for the purpose of providing ingress, egress and regress. However, any such right of way must be upon such terms and conditions that will ensure the City's use of its lands is not jeopardized or interfered with by any use or user of any rights of way ". I have nothing to add today to my advice to Common Council of 2007. The foregoing is a synopsis of the consideration given by Civic Administration to the Owner's development propositions. Mr. Vincent concluded his correspondence with the following: "If the City chooses to leave matters as to re- zoning as they are with no change in policy, I then ask the City to purchase the property I run or control at a fair price for further development of the property as housing or recreation as the City sees fit." The matter of the possible rezoning is within Mr. Vincent's control — he may apply to rezone his lands if he chooses. However without the City lands required for his proposed development, the usefulness of a rezoning is questionable. With respect to Mr. Vincent's request that the City purchase his land for fair market value, there is in my opinion no legal obligation upon the City to do so. Respectfully Submitted, Jo 311 REPORT TO COMMON COUNCIL M & C 2012 -163 June 14, 2012 His Worship Mayor Mel Norton and Members of Common Council Your Worship and Members of Common Council: 71n I The City of Saint John SUBJECT: Customer Service — Proposed 2012 Improvements and CRM Software Early Adopter Agreement BACKGROUND On November 3, 2008, a resolution was approved that directed the City Manager to present a report to Common Council on the implementation on a 311 municipal phone service and /or other methods of improving customer service for the City of Saint John. Outcomes expected as part of this resolution included customer service improvements that address accessibility, responsiveness, consistency and quality of municipal services. City staff has conducted extensive research and design work to develop a solution that will support the achievement of desired customer service improvement outcomes. Council was updated on the progress of customer service improvement initiatives on April 12, 2010 and July 18, 2011. The following list outlines progress on improving customer service since 2009. Review of best practices from Halifax, St. John's, Calgary and Edmonton to gain knowledge on customer service improvements carried out by these municipalities. Call for proposals issued for a Customer Service Management Centre to seek qualified professional firms to provide and implement a customer service software solution. Discovery process undertaken with the preferred customer service software solution to determine if it would meet the City's needs. Launch of a redesigned web -site for the City of Saint John. The goal was to provide better access to information on the City's service offerings, enhance customer service and improve accountability for service results. 312 M &C 2012 -163 Customer Service — Proposed 2012 Improvements Page 2 of 7 Evaluation of Sungard ONEsolution Customer Relationship Management (CRM) software as an option to provide better integration with existing financial and work order systems and reduce costs associated with purchasing software licenses. Completion of high -level design requirements to implement a customer service solution using a phased approach. Identification of requirements included extensive research on best practices related to customer service in the public sector, evaluation of public input obtained through engagement activities, and analysis of the City's current operations. Completion of an initial set of service level standards for many of the City's public facing services as part of the 2012 service -based budget process. Performance management of customer service expectations by engaging an independent market research firm to conduct annual citizen surveys designed to access residents' satisfaction with service delivery and identify community priorities on behalf of the City. Outreach and relationship building between the City and the community as a result of extensive public engagement initiatives undertaken as part of P1anSJ. Public engagement provides opportunities to ensure that service delivery addresses public interests and create better awareness of what the community can expect with respect to service delivery. On -going customer service training for City employees, particularly through the career development system for the outside workforce. Other service areas have taken the initiative to obtain similar training that focuses on the soft skills required to provide good customer service. Expectations around customer service are being better communicated with employees with the implementation of the performance review system. Customer service is identified as a core competency for all employee groups. This report outlines a direction for Common Council to consider for improving customer service to our citizens in 2012. ANALYSIS In developing a customer service solution, input was collected through public engagement to identify suggestions to improve the City's customer service. Citizens expressed concerns on their ability to contact the `right' service area and inconsistent follow -up to service requests during ward meetings. The City's 2011 annual citizen survey conducted by Ipsos Reid was also used as a tool to obtain input into the development of a customer service solution. The survey revealed that citizens are generally satisfied with their contact with City staff, although indicated room for improvement around the speed and timeliness of service and ability to resolve issues. Citizens offered suggestions (Figure I) related to ease of access, better communications, and prompt response to service calls and inquires as improvements to customer service. 313 M &C 2012 -163 Customer Service — Proposed 2012 Improvements Page 3 of 7 ABI TO CGNTACF SERV TH[ UTY Citizens Suggest Improvements FOR WQUQLX IRI[SOR SlR41C! 0[i1V[RY r to Customer Service...

While contact with the City is viewed as satisfactory, survey results clearly indicate that citizens are looking for improvements to service delivery (e.g., roadway maintenance 22% somewhat satisfied in 2011). Citizen perception of customer service is often shaped by whether or not they got what they needed in terms of service delivery (e.g., Was the pothole filled? Did I get the building permit? Is there a recreation program available in my neighbourhood ?). While service delivery process improvements are not within the scope of this project, better communication and access to information will help to improve customer service. Access to information related to service levels helps to build better awareness of what citizens can expect as a result of the City's service offerings. As part of the extensive research and analysis undertaken to determine how to improve customer service, the City has identified some guiding principles. The goal of the City's customer service improvement initiative is to enhance citizen contact experience and accessibility to information and services. This will be accomplished by: providing a consistent and timely approach and response to service requests; improving the ability to manage, monitor and measure service requests to identify priorities for improving service; and empowering all employees to provide quality customer service through training and development. In order to achieve these objectives, the City will focus on delivering several customer service improvement initiatives. While work will be planned to move several of these initiatives forward in 2012, progress has been made on a number of these initiatives and is described below. 314 M &C 2012 -163 Customer Service — Proposed 2012 Improvements Page 4 of 7 Customer Service Policy — Creation of a high -level Common Council approved policy statement the will guide the City in providing quality customer service. The policy outlines how we deliver quality customer service and the principles that guide our actions. A draft customer service policy has been developed for Council's consideration. The policy was developed by a cross - functional staff team and incorporates best practices, the Community's vision and goals, Council's priorities, PlanSJ directions and public engagement feedback. Corporate Customer Service Level Standards — Development of customer service standards that provide direction corporately in how we provide customer service; bringing consistency and reliability to the delivery of service across the organization and the customer experience. An example of service standards include response times for follow -up on service requests (not necessarily service delivery). Draft standards that will incorporate best practices are in the process of being prepared by a cross - functional staff team for the City Manager's consideration. Service Request Mapping — Documentation of processes related to each type of service request from the time request is received until completion, providing a means to ensure that everyone involved in customer service understands how service is delivered. These process maps provide a means to better communicate service expectations and a basis for service improvement. Current state process maps for the most common requests for service in Transportation & Environment and Saint John Water have been completed. Mapping of service requests will continue in these service areas, with other service areas being incorporated into the implementation of a customer service solution over time. Service Delivery Standards — Documentation of service level standards that support continuous improvement of service delivery, allowing the City to better communicate service delivery expectations with citizens and enhance the customer service experience. Examples include response time for pothole repair (based on priority) or water leak repair (based on priority). The City completed a service -based budget as part of the 2012 operating budget process. The service -based budget links service levels (expectations) with budget allocations. As a result, service delivery standards for many of the City's public facing services have been established. The City is contemplating a core service review that looks at what services the City should be delivering and to what extent. As a result, service levels will continue to be refined in support of improved customer service. Customer Relationship Management (CRM) Software — Implementation of technology based tools (including a knowledgebase that supports better communication and information to citizens on service delivery) that will enable the City to better manage service requests and interact with citizens in a more consistent and efficient manner. An agreement has been prepared for CRM software (attached), with review and input from the City's legal and purchasing services, for Council's consideration. Once the software has been purchased the implementation (process design and training) can begin. Customer Service Training Program — Development of a comprehensive customer service training program for all levels of employees in the corporation. The program will be built around the City's customer service objectives, processes and standards as developed to support improvement of customer service. 315 M &C 2012 -163 Customer Service — Proposed 2012 Improvements Page 5 of 7 In implementing each of these improvement initiatives, the City must consider the model it will use to deliver customer service. One option is a centralized model that provides citizens with easy access to municipal service through a single point -of- contact whether it is by telephone (i.e., one number concept), walk -in or on -line. The other option is to continue with the existing decentralized model where each service area is responsible for its customer service processes. Service improvement in the decentralized model would involve better coordination of customer service expectations with the introduction of corporate standards. A long -term solution for the City would be to work toward the implementation of a centralized customer service model. This model focuses on the creation of a corporate Citizen Contact Centre that would be responsible for coordinating service requests (initiation and follow -up with citizens), managing customer service standards, reporting on results and evaluating them to identify areas for service improvement. Requirements for a contact centre in terms of staffing, space and technology have been evaluated based on the City's current call volumes. Implementation costs for a contact centre are estimated to be in the range of $150,000 to $200,000. This estimate is considered to be a one -time cost to the City that would include software, training (limited), equipment and furniture. It should be noted that the proposed budget for implementation can only be achieved if the City is able to obtain customer service software (CRM) at no cost. In September 2009, the City released a proposal call for a customer service software solution. From the responses, the preferred proposal was estimated to cost the City $450,000 and sufficient funds were allocated in the 2010 Capital Budget (with carry over to 2011). While this software would have met the customer service objectives outlined in the proposal call, significant effort and resources would have been required to integrate the proposed solution with the City's Sungard financial and work order systems. In 2011, City staff evaluated a new Customer Relationship Management (CRM) software product from Sungard that will better integrate with the City's financial and work order systems. The City is being afforded an opportunity to enter into an early adopter agreement (attached) to evaluate the system and determine how it will best support the delivery of quality customer service. By agreeing to install, evaluate and test this new software for Sungard the City can obtain the software license free of charge, resulting in savings of approximately $400,000 from the original capital budget estimate. The early adopter agreement also provides the City with an opportunity to evaluate Sungard's new ONEsolution platform to determine if the software will meet the City's customer service needs before purchasing a license, essentially minimizing the risks associated with obtaining software. While customer service software will support better tracking and follow -up to citizen requests to service, it will also provide a means to measure performance related to established service level standards. The City's current software applications do not easily support performance measurement. If the City does not take advantage of the early adopter agreement with Sungard, there would be a requirement to issue a new proposal call for a customer service software solution. As a result, the City would have to purchase software licenses in the range of $150,000 to $400,000. The 2012 capital budget allocated $40,000 for customer service. 316 M &C 2012 -163 Customer Service — Proposed 2012 Improvements Page 6 of 7 Operating costs associated with the contact centre are estimated to be approximately $530,000. These costs include staffing (wages and benefits), on -going training, equipment and technology requirements. It is envisioned that staffing costs would be offset by reorganizing existing human resources from across the organization, resulting in on -going operating costs in the range of $75,000. However, given establishment reductions to a number of administrative positions as a result of the 2012 operating budget, there would be challenges to achieving this reorganization in the short-term. The operating cost estimate is also based on providing centralized customer service during core business hours. Additional operating costs would be required to provide 24 -7 access (or increased hours of service) to City services. Cost efficiencies may be realized by integrating with the City's Public Safety Communications Centre to provide 24 -7 service and will be analyzed if further consideration is given to the implementation of a centralized customer service model. Implementation and operating cost estimates do not take into account space requirements. The City is currently working on evaluating its space requirements with the implementation of the organization realignment and the Police Commission set to move into its new headquarters in the fall of 2012. Once the City completes its space audit these additional costs can be worked into the operating budget as required. Considering the costs associated with the implementation and operation of a Citizen Contact Centre and the City's current economic challenges, it is recommended that a focus is placed on implementing improvements to the City's current decentralized customer service model. These improvements consist of the deliverables listed above, more specifically the introduction of corporate customer service standards and implementation of CRM software. The focus will be on ensuring that customer service solutions are scalable to support the implementation of a centralized model in the future. While this approach does not support an immediate move to a one - number customer service concept, City staff will evaluate the current telephony system and implement improvements to support easier access to municipal services and information. Access will be further enhanced through continued improvements to the City's website. The primary focus for 2012 will be a phased implementation of customer service standards and a software solution that supports a coordinated, corporate approach to managing requests for service. While the customer service policy and related service standards will be introduced corporate wide, the implementation of the CRM will be phased in by service area. Training will be carried out to support the implementation of these two customer service improvements as required. The annual citizen survey and the City's call volumes indicate that Transportation & Environment Services and Saint John Water receive the most citizen contacts. As a result, CRM implementation and related processes will be implemented for these service areas in 2012. These service areas currently operate collectively under an informal one - number citizen contact centre (658 -4455) configuration providing 24 -7 access to service. This phase of implementation will essentially act as a pilot project to support the future development of a centralized (one - number) citizen contact centre, therefore requiring input from all service areas and consideration 317 M &C 2012 -163 Customer Service — Proposed 2012 Improvements Page 7 of 7 of public input to ensure that processes will achieve customer service objectives. An implementation plan for remaining service areas will be developed for 2013. FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS By entering into the Early Adopter Agreement, Sungard Public Sector Inc. will waive the capital cost for purchasing the ONEsolution CRM software. The City will incur implementation costs of approximately $20,000. This is a planned expenditure and as such funds are available in the approved 2012 Capital Budget. INPUT FROM OTHERS The City's Legal and Purchasing services have reviewed the Early Adopter Agreement and are supportive of the recommendation. The Common Clerk's Office has reviewed the agreement and will participate in the evaluation of the software to ensure that it meets requirements related to records management and privacy legislation. Corporate projects of this nature require committed human resources to ensure the successful delivery of planned objectives. The project will be supported by staff within the Strategic Services area. The Transportation & Environment and Saint John Water service areas have reviewed the project requirements and are supportive of the initial phase of implementation. RECOMMENDATIONS It is recommended that Common Council: approve a phased approach to customer service improvements that includes implementation of customer service standards and a software solution that supports a coordinated, corporate approach to managing requests for service in 2012; and authorize enrollment into an Early Adopter Software Agreement (attached) with Sungard Public Sector Inc. for Customer Relationship Management (CRM) software.

Patrick Woods, CGA City Manager 339 M &C -2012 -154 June 15, 2012 His Worship Mayor Ivan Court and Members of Common Council Your Worship and Councillors: SUBJECT: Municipal Plan Amendment & Rezoning Application 1000 Latimore Lake Road BACKGROUND: City of Saint John On May 7, 2012 a public presentation was made with respect to an application to amend the Municipal Plan to permit a Light Industrial operation on lands currently designated Rural Resource Area. This application also requires a rezoning from "RR" One Family Rural Residential and "RS -1M" One and Two Family and Mobile Home Suburban Residential to "I -1" Light Industrial. The 30- day initial objection period for the Municipal Plan Amendment application expired on June 6, 2012 and Common Council is now being asked to decide if it wishes to proceed with fin-ther consideration of this application, or not. At this stage, if Council would like to proceed with further consideration of this application it can be referred to the Planning Advisory Committee for a recommendation; a public hearing date will then be set and authorization for advertisement will be granted. In this case, the Report to Council describes circumstances in which Council should consider in deciding how this process should proceed. ANALYSIS: Applicant Proposal In January of 2012, the applicant's submitted plans to the Planning & Development Department requesting a preliminary review by staff to determine what approvals, if any, were required to proceed with their proposal for a 340 M &C- 2012 -154 -2- June 15, 2012 landscaping and property maintenance business on the above noted property. The proposed property is located outside of the Primary Development Area on land designated Rural Resource Area, which is a land use designation that does not contemplate or support the location of industrial land uses. The proposal would require a lot adjustment to expand the existing residentially zoned lot that fronts onto Latimore Lake Road, the building of an indoor storage facility for equipment, and the building of an outdoor storage yard for materials and parking. The proposal also contemplates an office space at the front of the proposed storage building to accommodate support staff. There would not be any retail services for the sale of goods to the public, such as the sale of planting materials; rather the applicant would utilize the site for the operation of their private landscaping business. Staff undertook a preliminary review of the proposal and had discussions with the applicant with respect to the anticipated staff recommendation. The applicant was verbally advised that pending approval of the Municipal Plan, which at that time was in the final stages of the legislated approval process, this proposed land use would require not only a rezoning but a Municipal Plan Amendment in order to permit it. The applicant was also advised that if they were to proceed with the submission of a formal application for this development, staff would be challenged to provide Council with a recommendation for approval given the guidance from the Municipal Plan. Municipal Plan Guidance The Municipal Plan for the City of Saint John, approved by Council on January 30th, 2012 and by the Province of New Brunswick approximately two weeks later in February of 2012, does not contemplate or support industrial uses outside of the Primary Development Area (PDA) on unserviced land. The Plan recognizes and supports the continued investment in industrial land uses, as this is an industrial City and growth in this sector is considered critical to our economic prosperity. However, the Plan recognizes that industrial land uses can and do have significant impacts on the quality of life of residents when they are sited in close proximity to residential neighbourhoods. In this instance, the applicant's own residential subdivision is located adjacent to the proposed landscaping business, a mobile home park is located to the north -west of the subject site, and rural residential development is located all along Latimore Lake Road. In the past, the City approved a couple of spot rezoning applications to Light Industrial in this area. To the north -west of the subject site, a machining and fabrication operation was approved and to the east a convenience store was approved. In both instances, the land was rezoned to "I -l" Light Industrial to accommodate the uses. Today, the Municipal Plan encourages, over time, the relocation of such existing incompatible industrial uses to properly designated and zoned industrial areas, as good community planning practices recognize and seek 341 M &C- 2012 -154 -3- June 15, 2012 to minimize the inherent conflict that siting industrial uses near residential uses, and vice - versa, creates. When examining proposals for new industrial land uses, such as this proposal, the Plan supports locating such development in appropriately designated and zoned industrial areas, which are located inside the Primary Development Area where they can be serviced with full municipal services, and where they are not in close proximity to residential areas. The intent is to minimize the potential for land use conflicts and ensure new industrial development is connected to municipal services. In this instance, the proposal is on land located approximately 4.2 kilometers from the edge of the Primary Development Area in the Rural Area of the City, where the Plan does not contemplate such land uses. The Rural Areas are intended for resource -based development to preserve the environmental features and functions of rural lands, protect the rural character of the area, and facilitate the continued use of rural areas for rural resource uses, where appropriate and where permitted. RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the application by Kimberly Wilson and Douglas Cyr for a Municipal Plan Amendment and Rezoning be received and filed, and not proceed to the Planning Advisory Committee for further evaluation, for the following reasons: 1. The application for an industrial use in the Rural Resource Area is not in conformity with the intent of the Municipal Plan; 2. The proposed location is well outside of the Primary Development Area; and 3. There is existing residential development in close proximity along Latimore Lake Road.

In order to realize this, the Primary Development Area has been established, inside which the vast majority of development is planned to occur over the planning period. The adoption of an urban growth boundary for the City is not a new idea; in fact, previous Municipal Plans for the City have included similar concepts. Over time, however, amendments to previous Municipal Plans allowed rural development to take place, which undermined efforts to further urbanize the City. The Primary Development Area is a statutory component to the Municipal Plan. Council should evaluate proposed amendments to the boundary of the Primary Development Area utilizing the guidance found in Policy LU -9 and the general intent of the Municipal Plan. Council shall: Policy LU -5 Establish the Primary Development Area (the PDA) as shown on the Future Land Use map (Schedule B). The PDA includes the lands currently serviced with municipal water and wastewater or those intended to be serviced with this infrastructure over the planning period. Policy LU -6 Intend that the PDA form the growth boundary of the City. Lands within the PDA are the priority areas for accommodating future growth over the planning period, to capitalize on investments made in existing infrastructure. Policy LU -7 Intend that all lands outside of the PDA are considered Rural Areas and will be governed by the policies that address Rural Area development in the Municipal Plan. Policy LU -8 Not permit development serviced with municipal water and wastewater services beyond the boundaries of the PDA without first changing the boundaries of the PDA which will require an amendment to the Future Land Use map (Schedule B). 54 72� CITY OF SAINT JOHN MUNICIPAL PLAN 352 Council may. Policy LU -9 Consider amending the boundaries of the Primary Development Area boundary when: a. A comprehensive review of the Municipal Plan has taken place, as outlined in the Implementation Chapter of the Municipal Plan. b. Notwithstanding (a) above, an amendment to the Future Land Use map (Schedule B) may be considered outside of the comprehensive review period as a result of an application to accommodate an unanticipated large -scale industrial development. In such cases, the PDA should not be expanded unless the industrial development is consistent with Policy LU -75 of the Municipal Plan. 3.5 Land Uses within the Primary Development Area Within the Primary Development Area, there are Intensification Areas, Employment Areas, Corridors, and Other Areas. Each of these land use sections contains corresponding land use designations to guide growth and development. Intensification Areas are intended to receive the most growth and development over the planning period; however, in each land use designation the type and density of development will differ. Employment Areas follow a similar approach containing employment designations to recognize the various needs of different types of employment. A Commercial Corridor has been designated along Rothesay Avenue to accommodate the specific needs of business along that thoroughfare, and Other Areas recognizes the remaining land use designations within the Primary Development Area. CHAPTER THREE I LAND USE 55 353 Industrial Areas The City's economy is founded on its industrial and manufacturing operations, and the community is poised to continue its strong growth in sectors related to these activities. The City recognizes that while these industrial and manufacturing operations are critical to our economic growth, industrial land uses can significantly affect the quality of life in adjacent neighbourhoods and they must be carefully located to maximize their benefit to the community. As a result, lands appropriate for industrial development should be retained for future industrial use. In order to address this, the Municipal Plan establishes two industrial designations to steer industrial uses to their most appropriate location: the Light Industrial designation and the Heavy Industrial designation. The City also plays an important role in supplying the land required to accommodate industrial growth through its ownership of Saint John Industrial Parks Limited (SJIPL). SJIPL will help to ensure that an appropriate supply of land is available in the Light Industrial and Heavy Industrial designations within carefully planned industrial parks to fuel the community's future growth. General Industrial Policies Council shall: Policy LU -71 Concentrate major new industrial developments in Industrial Parks. Policy LU -72 Prohibit residential development in industrial areas to avoid potential land use conflicts. Policy LU -73 Establish provisions in the Zoning Bylaw to limit commercial and retail uses in industrial areas and to limit the scale of retail sales associated with industrial uses. Policy LU -74 Encourage the relocation of incompatible light and heavy industrial uses located throughout the City to properly designated and zoned industrial areas. Policy LU -75 Recognize that the community's significant industrial base gives rise to the potential for unanticipated large -scale industrial developments that cannot be accommodated by the lands currently designated Industrial in the Municipal Plan. Council may consider applications to re- designate additional lands to Light or Heavy Industrial or Rural Industrial on the Future Land Use map (Schedule B) and shall consider the following in evaluating such proposals: a. Adequate lands designated for Industrial development are not available or there is a demonstrated need for the proposed industry to be sited in a particular location; CHAPTER THREE I LAND USE 81 354 b. Appropriate studies are conducted by the applicant to satisfy Council that the proposed lands are located an appropriate distance away from incompatible land uses or it is demonstrated that appropriate mitigative measures can be implemented to address any community and /or environmental impacts associated with the development; c. Due consideration is given to site suitability including such considerations as transportation needs, necessary municipal servicing, landscaping and buffering; and d. There are clearly demonstrated social and economic benefits to the proposal. Policy LU -76 Create the Heavy Industrial land use designation on the Future Land Use map (Schedule B). The Heavy Industrial designation is intended to accommodate industrial operations which may or may not generate noise, heavy truck traffic, smoke, dust, heat, particulate matter, or highly visible outdoor storage, which extend beyond the property line. All of the uses permitted in the Light Industrial designation are intended to be permitted in the Heavy Industrial designation, except as specifically excluded by the Zoning Bylaw. Uses in the Heavy Industrial designation will generally utilize the City's water and wastewater systems. 82 CITY OF SAINT JOHN MUNICIPAL PLAN 355 Policy LU -77 Require that Heavy Industrial uses which emit pollution be required to provide appropriate separation distances and /or buffers from incompatible uses, as provided for in the Zoning Bylaw or as specifically required by Council. Policy LU -78 Establish provisions in the Zoning Bylaw to require that appropriate hazard and risk assessment studies be prepared prior to permitting certain intensive Heavy Industrial uses in the City. Policy LU -79 Generally prohibit the designation of land as Heavy Industrial which is not located in an Industrial Park specifically designed to accommodate such uses. Policy LU -80 Notwithstanding policy LU -75, recognize there are a number of existing capital - intensive heavy industrial facilities in the City that are not located in industrial parks. Council may consider the re- designation of lands that are contiguous with these existing uses to Heavy Industrial without an amendment to the Municipal Plan, provided that the proposed use is generally compatible with the surrounding land uses, appropriate mitigation measures are provided, transportation needs can be accommodated, and municipal servicing is adequate to service the proposed expansion. Light Industrial Areas Council shall: Policy LU-81 Create the Light Industrial land use designation on the Future Land Use map (Schedule B). The Light Industrial designation is intended to accommodate industries which generally do not create nuisances, such as noise, heavy truck traffic, smoke, dust, heat, particulate matter, or highly visible outdoor storage, which extend beyond the property line. Examples of such industries include, but are not limited to, light manufacturing and assembly, warehousing, wholesaling, distribution, research & development activities, equipment or vehicle servicing, sales or rental. Uses in the Light Industrial designation will be connected to the City's water and wastewater systems. Policy LU -82 Establish provisions in the Zoning Bylaw that: a. Limit outdoor storage in Light Industrial areas and, where it exists, require that it be screened from adjacent uses and public areas and kept in a neat orderly manner; b. May require certain light industrial activities to be located within enclosed buildings; c. Permit only limited ancillary activities, such as offices, that are used directly in conjunction with the light industrial use. CHAPTER THREE i LAND USE 83 356 3.6 Lard Use Designations outside the Primary Development Area 3.6.1 Rural Areas a c d W z F W d F O The City is a large municipality which is comprised of over 300 square kilometers of land. Council has identified that urban development is most appropriately located within the boundaries of the Primary Development Area (PDA). The Municipal Plan carefully manages land uses beyond the PDA in the Rural Areas to preserve the environmental features and functions of these lands, protect the rural character of these areas, and facilitate the continued use of these lands for rural resource use, where appropriate and permitted. In order to manage land use in the Rural Areas of the City, the Municipal Plan creates four land use designations which apply to the City's Rural Areas: CITYSTRUCTURE LAND USE RURALAREAS Pural —4 Rural Resource Area Resource .AiQa Rural --4 Rural Settlement A.iea Settlement kea Ruiitl —4 Rljral Industrial Area Industrial Area Stable Area —4 Rural Residential .'uea CHAPTER THREE I LAND USE 89 357 General Policies Council shall: Policy LU -93 Discourage new residential roads in the Rural Areas except in areas designated Rural Settlement Area. Policy LU -94 Establish provisions in the Zoning Bylaw and the Subdivision Bylaw to limit subdivision development in the Rural Areas outside the Primary Development Area. The City shall generally require that new lots outside the PDA have a minimum lot area of four (4) hectares (40,000 square metres) except as otherwise provided in a specific rural land use designation. Rural Resource Area The majority of the lands within the City's Rural Areas are located in the Rural Resource Area designation. These lands are intended to facilitate resource related activities, where appropriate, such as forestry operations, agriculture, fisheries, and extraction activities, including pits and quarries. Limited residential and other land uses may be contemplated. Council shall: Policy LU -95 Create the Rural Resource Area designation on the Future Land Use map (Schedule B). Council intends that land within the Rural Resource Area designation shall generally remain in their natural state, or, subject to regulation and required approvals, be used for appropriate resource uses including forestry operations, agriculture uses including livestock operations and the fishery, and extraction activities, including pits and quarries. 90 '3 'G WS) CITY OF SAINT JOHN MUNICIPAL PLAN 358 Policy LU -96 Provide that pits and quarries may be located in the Rural Resource Area designation provided the land is rezoned to the Pits and Quarries Zone. The Pits and Quarries Zone defines the specific performance standards for their operation, and the rehabilitation of operative and inoperative pits and quarries. In considering applications to rezone a property to the Pits and Quarries Zone, Council shall ensure the proposed use can demonstrate compliance with all of the zone provisions, including: a. Compatibility with and /or minimal impact on existing adjacent land uses; b. An appropriate location and acceptable hours of operation; c. A stormwater management plan; d. Incorporation of site development measures which will assist in the control of smoke, dust, odour, toxic materials, vibration and noise; e. Compliance with required setback, yard, and separation distances from existing roads or uses; f. The provision of visual screening; g. Acceptable location for buildings and equipment; h. Inclusion of necessary safety and protective measures; i. Acceptable location of entrances and exits, and the designation of acceptable hauling routes; j. Demonstrated compliance with signage and landscaping provisions; and k. Measures to ensure future rehabilitation of the site. Policy LU -97 Consider permitting limited residential development in the Rural Resource designation. Residential development shall only be permitted on newly created lots that have a minimum lot area of four (4) hectares (40,000 square metres) and have direct access to an existing public or private street. Policy LU -98 Consider permitting new residential development in Rural Resource areas provided that it demonstrates compatibility with existing resources related uses. Policy LU -99 generally not accept the dedication of new public streets within the Rural Resource Area designation unless Council determines that the new roadway is necessary to provide safe access to the development or is necessary to improve connectivity between developments in the general area. CHAPTER THREE I LAND USE 91 359 Council may. Policy LU -100 Consider requests to re- designate lands from Park and Natural Area to Rural Resource Area provided that the land does not contain environmentally significant features, a demonstrated potential exists for a resource - related use of the land, and any environmental and /or community quality of life impacts from the proposal can be mitigated to a level deemed acceptable by Council. Plural Settlement Area The City has expanded over time, through amalgamation, to incorporate a number of historic rural communities, several of which are identified in the Municipal Plan as Rural Settlement Areas. These Rural Settlement Areas are Martinon to Ketepec, Lorneville and Treadwell Lake. These communities are where additional small scale rural residential and supporting commercial and community uses will be permitted. Any new, low density residential development in these settlements is intended to be compatible with a rural lifestyle and with the existing community character. New housing will support the existing character and vitality of these settlements and utilize the existing community facilities that are already established in these areas. Permitting small scale residential growth in these Settlement Areas is intended to better utilize the City's investments in community infrastructure in these places and ensure this lifestyle choice can continue. Policy LU -101 Create the Rural Settlement Area designation on the Future Land Use map (Schedule B). Council intends that lands within the Rural Settlement Area designation are to be developed in a way that is consistent with the character and form of the existing community. The development of low density housing with private on -site water and wastewater systems is permitted, as are appropriate commercial uses, community facilities, home occupations, and parks. S,- Ir: 92 �� � Sj CITY OF SAINT JOHN MUNICIPAL PLAN 360 REPORT TO COMMON COUNCIL M & C 2012 -155 OPEN SESSION June 18, 2012 Mayor Mel Norton and Members of Common Council Your Worship and Councillors: SUBJECT: Peel Plaza Project Update Background Oily {rf 5.HdTil. Tphn A number of years ago the City of Saint John identified the need for a new police headquarters to meet the operational requirements of the Police Force. At about the same time, the Province of NB identified the need for a new integrated justice building to modernize and centralize their operations in the City of Saint John. It was patently obvious that certain efficiencies and cost savings could be realized should the parties jointly engage in their respective developments. The Province of NB preferred an uptown location for their new facility. After extensive discussion with the City of Saint John, it was determined the Peel Plaza site would be advantageous for both parties. Because of the projected occupant load (number of persons in the facility) of the Law Courts, a significant public parking component was identified as being necessary. This presented an opportunity to the Saint John Parking Commission to partner with the Province and construct a new parking structure. Collectively, decisions were made to proceed at a site "North of Union" with an integrated development. The development would include a new police headquarters, a new provincial law courts, a new municipally owned parking garage, street and infrastructure renewal in and surrounding the site, and the construction of a new public space (Peel Plaza). It is anticipated that this aggressive development in the uptown would yield ancillary benefits to the community: Potentially trigger additional development in the uptown area. Set the development bar for further renewal in the area. Build on the substantial public infrastructure in the area, Arts Centre, pedway, etc. Create public facilities and public space, which will be a lasting source of pride in the community. 361 M & C 2012 — 155 - 2 - June 18, 2012 During the land assembly process required for the development, the City of Saint John also acquired peripheral properties with the expectation that these properties would become part of the overall development, or be redeveloped by the private sector subsequent to substantial completion of the project. These properties have become known as the ancillary development lands. The purpose of this report is to provide Common Council with an update of the project; specifically the construction status, and financial status. Cost Sharing Opportunities One of the key decision - making factors influencing the City's decision to proceed with this development was the Provincial participation and cost sharing. The Province of NB, very early on, acknowledged both the operational and financial advantages in partnering with the City for their development. The Province indicated a willingness to cost share with the City on those elements which mutually benefit the Province. Specifically, the Province agreed to cost share in the construction and operation cost of the common areas of the police facility (holding area, booking area, vehicular and pedestrian tunnels); the capital construction costs and maintenance for 180 parking spaces in the new parking garage; and a $500,000 contribution toward the development of the public park. The Province also indicated a willingness to pay a proportionate share of annual property taxes for each of the municipally owned buildings. Notwithstanding the Provincial government's willingness to cost share in the project, it remained incumbent upon the City to critically examine the development options to ensure best possible value for money. In this regard, the City of Saint John fully investigated a possible P3 scenario. This scenario would see a third party designing, building, operating, maintaining, and financing the development over a 30 -year period. The City would essentially be tenants of the facility throughout this concession period, following which; full ownership and operational cost would be the responsibility of the City. This very in -depth analysis unfortunately did not result in a financial benefit to the City of Saint John. In fact, it was determined a traditional procurement process would result in a significant savings to the City as opposed to the P3 scenario. Given the above, the City began the traditional tendering process. Progress to Date Police Headquarters: In July of 2010, the City of Saint John called tenders for the construction of a new Police Headquarters, and subsequently awarded the contract to Pomerleau Inc. in the amount of $20,675,000 +HST. As of May 31, 2012, construction is approximately 73% complete, with progress payments having been made of 362 M & C 2012 — 155 -3 - June 18, 2012 $14,545,659.00 +HST. The projected substantial completion is mid -late July 2012. As with any construction of this complexity, several adjustments and /or change orders are necessitated as construction proceeds. To date, there have been approximately 160 proposed changes to the project. Many of these proposed changes were deemed necessary and instruction was provided to the contractor to carry out the work. Several proposed changes are currently being assessed by the project office. For Council's information, the dollar value of approved changes to date is $642,562.74 and further proposed changes totaling $346,731.34 are pending. The above additional costs are within the budget envelope approved by Council (see attached spreadsheet). The Project Manager advised Common Council, prior to award of the contract, that it was typical to expect tender price overruns in the order of 7 -12% for this type of project. Contingency funding was set aside by Council. At this time, it is anticipated that the Police Headquarters will be completed within the budgeted amount identified by Common Council. Parking Garage: In October of 2010, the Saint John Parking Commission called tenders for the construction of a new parking garage and subsequently awarded the contract to PCL Constructors Canada Inc. in the amount of $16,546,400 +HST. As of May 31, 2012, construction is approximately 57% complete with progress payments having been made of $9,439,467.68 +HST. The projected substantial completion is mid -late October 2012. As with any construction of this complexity, several adjustments and /or change orders are necessitated as construction proceeds. To date, there have been approximately 20 proposed changes to the project. Many of these proposed changes were deemed necessary and instruction was provided to the contractor to carry out the work. Several proposed changes are currently being assessed by the project office. For Council's information, the dollar value of approved changes to date is $212,143.17 and further proposed changes totaling $81,247.83 are pending (net). The above additional costs are within the budget envelope approved by the Parking Commission (see attached spreadsheet). The Project Manager advised the Parking Commission, prior to award of the contract, that it was typical to expect tender price overruns in the order of 7% for this type of project. Contingency funding of 4.5% was set aside by the Parking Commission. At this time, it is anticipated that the Parking Garage will be completed within the budgeted amount identified by the Parking Commission. Infrastructure: An integral part of the Peel Plaza development is the renewal /reconstruction of below - ground and surface infrastructure in the immediate area. Infrastructure has been (is being) renewed on Union St. between St. Patrick and Wellington 363 M & C 2012 — 155 - 4 - June 18, 2012 Row, Wellington Row, Carleton St. from Wellington Row to the end, Hazen St. /Chipman St. /Peel St. complete, now called Peel Plaza. This project was awarded by Council in August of 2012 to Gulf Operators in the amount of $5,390,000. To date we have made progress payments in the amount of $4,032,497.89 +HST. As of May 31, 2012, construction is approximately 75% complete. The projected substantial completion is Summer 2012. The infrastructure renewal, particularly on Union St, was extremely complex due to the large volumes of buried infrastructure located below the surface (see Slide #12). The contractor performing the work encountered a number of "surprises" as the street was excavated. These surprises resulted in a number of adjustments being made in the contract to accommodate the required changes in scope. There were a number of change directives /orders issued to the contractor in this regard. The total amount of the project approved by Council is $6,190,000. It is anticipated that the cost of the infrastructure component will be within the approved budgeted amounts. Public Plaza: The public park, or plaza, is the last component of the development to be constructed. The total amount approved by Council for this project is $2,500.000. Of this amount, $500,000 is being contributed by the Province of NB. This being the truly public component of Peel Plaza, significant public input was requested by the City in regards to landscaping specifications. A number of public sessions were held and significant input was considered by the City's architect in the development of the specifications. The views expressed by the public were often divergent, but had the affect of providing a balanced approach to what would be the final product. Tenders for this project were issued in March 2012, with closing date of June 13, 2012. A subsequent report will be provided to Council dealing with award. The above four projects comprise the essence of Peel Plaza. Peripheral to these construction projects are the issue of public art, and the disposition of the ancillary lands. No decisions have been made by Council on either of these issues. With respect to public art, Common Council has set aside an amount of $200,000 (see attached spreadsheet). There has been no clear direction provided by Council as to how this funding allocation is to be spent. The City owned ancillary lands are comprised of two adjacent buildings on Union St.; two adjacent Jellybean buildings (so- called); former Synagogue — Carleton St.; and 364 M & C 2012 — 155 - 5 - June 18, 2012 upper three floors of the new Parking Garage. There has been some discussion by a subcommittee of the Peel Plaza Steering Committee regarding the appropriate marketing /disposition of these properties. Planning and Development Office have assembled and packaged preliminary call for proposals for each of the identified parcels. No decision has been made as to the timing as to when these will be sent out for public offering. Simply put, each of the four constituent projects of Peel Plaza now have a final completion date later than that initially envisioned. All of these projects, however, are within budgets approved by Common Council at this time. Respectfully submitted, Wm. Edwards, P.Eng. J.

The meeting was productive; with groups sharing information on major projects that will impact traffic flows during the 2012 construction season. During the March 2012 meeting NBDOT advised that they were planning to close the two eastbound lanes of the Harbour Bridge beginning the week of April 15, 2012 to continue rehabilitation of the provincial asset. The two remaining lanes would serve east and west traffic over the bridge. This highlighted the need for a coordinated approach and comprehensive communications program to advise network users and other stakeholders on what to anticipate in 2012. The process continued with a second meeting on May 30 and included local utilities Saint John Energy, Enbridge Gas, Bell Aliant, Irving Refinery, and Rogers, in addition to NBDOT, Police Force, Transit and the City's Transportation and Environment Services Division. The 2012 construction season will again have many large projects with impacts to traffic flows on major traffic arteries. The purpose of this report is to update Council on current and planned roadway construction and the steps being taken to help mitigate impacts on users of the transportation network. ANALYSIS The second phase of the Harbour Bridge project (eastbound lanes of the structure) is anticipated to proceed, but at the time this report was being drafted NBDOT was unable to give a firm timeline for the start of construction - pending the outcome of ongoing contractual discussions. The Harbour Bridge project, once underway, will have an impact on traffic in a very significant way and will require a combined public communications effort between NBDOT and the City to keep motorists updated on construction activities and alternate routes. Access to Harbour Passage for pedestrians and cyclists will not be affected until work actually commences at the Harbour Bridge site. 395 M &C2012 -147 June 12, 2012 Page 2 The One Mile House Interchange project schedule has been affected also as the project was being constructed by the same contractor as the Harbour Bridge rehabilitation project. Traffic flows will be affected at times when the One Mile House Interchange project recommences. The City of Saint John also has a number of major construction projects under both the General Fund and Utility Fund Capital Programs that will have an impact on traffic arteries. A map identifying the location of 2012 City projects is attached. Projects that will have a significant impact on traffic are highlighted later in this report. Communications — Construction Information Keeping citizens informed is a key component of a successful construction season. Operations, Engineering, SJ Water, Saint John Police and Communications will work together with SJ Transit, SJ Parking Commission, NBDOT, the Active Transportation Group and the various other utilities and contractors to ensure that the public is kept informed on projects, delays and changes to traffic patterns. The various groups will also work together to promote information regarding alternate routes and modes of transportation. The public should consider car pooling, public transit, and employers may wish to consider alternate hours of operation to help reduce traffic at peak times when the Harbour Bridge rehabilitation project recommences. A coordinated communications campaign is being initiated to keep the public informed on construction progress throughout the season, along with impacts on the highway and road networks and various forms of transportation. The following will be utilized to communicate information to the public: • Public information sessions for major projects where required (example: separate reports on this council agenda advise of planned Public Information Sessions for the Champlain Heights Water Pumping Station Upgrades project and Beach Crescent/Alward Street Sanitary Sewer Installations); • The weekly construction updates report that is sent to the media and posted to the City's website each Friday. The weekly update for June 8, 2012 is attached for information; • Placement of the attached City of Saint John Projects Map on the City's website; • Utilizing "Insight" to detail project information; • Construction/traffic information in summer safety campaign radio advertising; • "Spot" traffic advisories and disseminating through various channels; • Onsite information signage where needed; • Working with Destination Saint John and the Visitor Information Centres to keep visitors /tourists informed; 396 M &C2012 -147 June 12, 2012 Page 3 • Distributing information through the Board of Trade magazine "Currents" (circulation 5,000). Saint John Harbour Bridge As stated in the Analysis section, the 2012 Harbour Bridge rehabilitation project has yet to recommence and there are ongoing contractual discussions being undertaken by NBDOT. Once construction timelines are known, staff will coordinate communication efforts with NBDOT. One Mile Interchange Good progress was being made on construction of the One Mile Interchange previous to the contract interruption. A closure of Rothesay Avenue at the intersection with Russell Street will be required this season when work recommences to allow for overhead beam placement. City Projects The attached City of Saint John Projects Map for 2012 includes projects under several categories: • Asphalt Maintenance Resurfacing • Street Reconstruction • Water and Sewer Renewals • Harbour Clean-Up Program Generally, the asphalt maintenance resurfacing projects are carried out in stages: asphalt cold milling, structure adjustments and paving. These projects are normally of short duration with each location taking a few days to complete depending on length of roadway to be resurfaced. Water & Sewer Renewals and Harbour Clean -Up collection and forcemain piping projects require trench excavation in roadways and will result in lane reductions, but there will be full road closures only in special cases where buried infrastructure is complex. Street Reconstruction projects normally involve underground infrastructure renewals and replacement of roadway granulars in preparation for new curb, sidewalk and asphalt installations. This type of construction work normally requires full road closure. From the Projects Map, the following projects will result in significant impacts to traffic flow. • Somerset Street Reconstruction — Samuel Davis Drive to Wellesley Avenue (will likely result in road closures and detours) • Broad Street/Crown Street Forcemain & Sewer - Charlotte Street to Haymarket Square (lane reductions) • Hilyard Street/Chesley Drive Forcemain & Sewer (lane reductions and detours) 397 M &C2012 -147 June 12, 2012 Page 4 • Main Street West/Harding Street West Forcemain & Sewer (lane reductions and detours) • Rothesay Avenue Microsurfacing — Russell Street to McAllister Drive (lane reductions) • Thorne Avenue Forcemain — Russell Street to Egbert Street (lane reductions and detours) • Rothesay Avenue Forcemain — Reserve Street to Frederick Street (lane reductions) Traffic disruption could be subject to change depending on particular design and/or construction circumstances. Detailed traffic control plans will be developed with contractors and design consultants for all major construction projects. In addition to those identified above, other planned projects shown on the Projects Map should be less disruptive. There will also be normal operational and maintenance activities carried out by Saint John Water and Transportation & Environment Services crews. These are smaller in scope and usually only disrupt traffic on a street or street sections for a relatively short period. Staff will also be communicating with other local utilities — Enbridge Gas, Bell Aliant and Saint John Energy — to exchange information about their work activities in order to coordinate respective programs and plans. CONCLUSION Many construction projects and activities have begun or are planned for the 2012 construction season. Agencies are coordinating their public communications effort and this will continue as projects progress. Despite these, the public should expect disruption to traffic flows. Patience and understanding on the part of all network users will be important. RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that Common Council receive and file this report.

FINANCIAL POSITION/RESULTS For the period ended as at April 30, 2012, the Saint John Police Force was under budget year -to -date by $333,758 or 4.45 %. There were six key expense categories that contributed to this budget variance. 1. Salaries and Wages were under budget by $268,050. 2. Overtime costs exceeded budget by $106,255. 3. Wage costs for On -Call and Court Time were over budget by $24,381 4. Fringe Benefits were under by $33,243. 5. Good and Services were over budget by $163,101. M Chris Waidschutz, Chairman and Members of the Board of Police Commission June 5, 2012 Page 2 Subject. 2012 Operating Budget — April Financial Results Budget Analysis REVENUE Revenue exceeded budget projections by $25,793 which for the most part is funds recovered for overtime paid to officers to work Extra -Duty assignments. Budget Revenue Source Variance Prisoner Lodging Accident Reports Taxi Licences Security Clearances Secondments and Peacekeeping Missions Extra -Duty Billings SALARIES AND WAGES (1,000) $2,336 $20,611 ($1,585) ($19,428) $24,859 $25,793 Salaries were under budget by $268,050 and this is associated with the number of police and civilian vacancies that have not been filled to achieve a balanced budget for 2012. OVERTIME Saint John Police Association The overtime costs were over budget by $103,818. The Patrol Division accounted for $70,380 and the Criminal Investigation Division was over budget by $29,838. This variance in overtime for both divisions is mitigated by $24,793 in revenue that was recovered from billings to third parties for extra -duty assignments. OTHER PERSONNEL COSTS On -Call Pay On -Call Pay is over budget by $12,204 and the weekly on -call allowance has been discontinued for some areas to minimize the impact on the 2012 budget. 407 Chris Waldschutz, Chairman and Members of the Board of Police Commission June 5, 2012 Page 3 Subject: 2012 Operating Budget — April Financial Results Court Time - Local 61 The cost for court time exceeded budget by $13,052. GOODS & SERVICES The various Goods and Services accounts were under budget by $163,101. However, there are a number of key expense categories that are showing under budget due to billings not being received or processed at the end of this reporting period. RECOMMENDATION Y It is recommended that the Board accept and approve this Financial Report for the period ended as at April 30, 2012 and forward a copy to Common Council as required under Section 7 (3) of the New Brunswick Police Act.

Council adopted the City Manager's recommendation that the development of a proposed dwelling at this location not be approved, on the basis that satisfactory arrangements have not been made for street access and other services. Mr. Byers has now submitted the attached letter, dated April 26, 2012, requesting that Common Council consider his situation and allow the temporary placement of the mini home on the lot. ANALYSIS: Section 27 of the Mobile Horne Parks By -law authorizes Common Council to permit the placement of a mobile home on a property for a temporary period of up to one year. In the past, Common Council has approved such requests on compassionate grounds, such as poor health or financial hardship. In fact, Mr. Byers was previously granted such approval on April 5, 2004 (which was subsequently renewed once). At the time of the original temporary approval, Mr. and Mrs. Byers resided in the house on the adjoining property (1285 Red Head V,– — – — –_ 419 M&C -2012 -107 -2- May 1, 2012 Road) and the purpose of the mini home was to provide accommodation for his daughter, who was assisting with the care of Mrs. Byers. The present circumstances are somewhat different from the usual situation, in that there does not appear to be any particular reason why the mini home needs to be located on the subject property (as opposed to some other location in the City where it would be permitted as of right), other than the fact that the land is already owned by his daughter. However, the applicant does suggest in his letter that there are grounds for some consideration of this request due to the unique circumstances of the family. In light of the above, Council may wish to exercise its discretion under the Mobile Home Parks By -law. RECOMMENDATION: If Common Council wishes to exercise its discretion pursuant to the provisions of the Mobile Home Parks By -law, the following resolution would be appropriate: "RESOLVED that Common Council approve the location of a mobile home at 1287 Red Head Road (PID Nos. 55009716 and 55009724) for a temporary period of one year, pursuant to Section 27 of the Mobile Parks By- law."

Patrick Woods, CGA City Manager Attachments 420 April 26, 2012 80 Laura Drive Quispamsis E2E 694 Ken Forrest P.D. Box 1971 Saint John New Brunswick E21-41-1 Mr. Forrest, I am writing in regards to my property at 1287 Red Head Rd. In 2004, i was able to receive permission on compassionate grounds to place a mini home on our lot. In 2005 1 relocated to Alberta. We returned to Saint John in 2009 and we have been forced to live with our daughter. I am appealing for similar consideration at this time. My wife is in failing health and I am required to be with her each day because she is unable to be left on her own. My wife and I are both retired and are on fixed income. My daughter will assist us in purchasing a mini home so we will not be required to pay rent. I have contacted my neighbours and there is no opposition to my request to place my mini home on the lot. I understand if permission is granted, my file will be reviewed each year. I fear if we are unsuccessful in our application we will be forced to move from Saint John. Thank you for considering my request. Sincerely yours, -"'j-Z4 t4��L� Stephen Byers 848 -2120 6091943 421 It .i ,,.4 l h M& C-2012-63 March 22, 2012 His Worship Mayor Ivan Court and Members of Common Council Your Worship and Councillors: ,� n1 aty of tlalnt JdM 5- ECr Proposed Mini Home on Undeveloped Section of Paisley Street 1287 Red Head Road BACKGROUND: On J=Uary 5, 2004, Mr. Stephen Byers applied for a building permit to construct a one - family dwelling, consisting of a mini home, to be placed on a permanent foundation, at the above -noted site (1297 Red Head Road). The location of the site is illustrated on the attached neap. At the time, Mr. Byers owned and lived in a house on the adjacent property (1295 Red. Head Road). 1W. Byers was advised that the permit could not be approved because satisfactory, arrangements had not been made for the supply of the necessary street access and services in this subdivision. The matter was considered by Common Council at their meeting of Mardi 8, 2004 pursuant to Section 40 of the Zoning 13y-Lzw, which provides as follows: No building may be erected in the City in respect of whick in the opinion of the Cnrmci4 saEisfactory arrangements have not been made for the sirpply of ekamc p nver, water, sewerage, streets or other services of facilities. At the meeting of March 9, 2004 Cormcil decided not to permit the development of the above noted lot as there were significant deficiencies with the access to the prngerty and site services. However, on April 5, 2004, Council did approve the temporary placement of a mini home on the property for a one year period pursimnt to the Mobile Home Parks By -law. 422 M & C — 2011 -- 63 .2- Marrh 22, 2012 In 2006, Mr. Byers and family relocated outside of the Proninc;e and sold the site of the mini home to his daughter, Debora Gallant. Common Councn7 granted an additional one -year temporary approval at its meeting of May 23, 2006 and Mir. Byers's niece inhabited the mini home while the family was out of province. The mini home has since been moved from the property. Aerial photos from 2006 and 2010 showing the subject site are attached to the report. Mr. Byers's own residence on the adjacent property at 1285 Red Head Road was sold in a mortgage We in April of 2006. In February of 2011, Ms. Gallant reapplied to place a mini home on the property on apermawnt basis, necessitating consideration by Common Council pursuant to Section 40 of the Zoning By -law. At its moo ft of March 14, 2011, Common Council denied the request based on the same considerations as were cited in Council's denial of the request back in March of 2004. W. Byers has now submitted the attached letter, dated March 13, 2012, once again requesting reconsideration of the proposal to allow the mini home as a permanent dwelling on the site, with no accompanying upgrading of the street. ANALYSIS: The Paisley Street subdivision was approved in 1979 as Phase 3 of Woodlawn Park. The developer went out of business shortly afirsward. As this was prior to the time when the City required developers to provide a letter of credit or other security to guarantee the completion of all street work and services, the subdivision remains unfinished Today most of the lots in the unfinished development are owned by a single company (not the original developer). The subject site actually consists of two of the subdivision lots, each having dimensions of 18.3 metres by 37.7 metres (60 feet by 123 feet), for a total area of approximately 1380 square metres (14,850 square feet). The properties to the west of the site along Paisley Street were accessed by means of a "reserved road" that was part of an earlier tmserviced development, known as the Gene D. Wong Subdivision (approved in 1958). The access consists of shared gravel drix eway located within the right- of-way. This land has not bees developed d as a street, but the City plow does go in as far as the property to the west along Paisley Street (the applicant's former residence at civic 1285 Red Head Road) and their backs out to Red (lead Road. The applicant has had discussions with both Engineering and Planning dating back to at least 1992 and the requirement to develop the street has been known to therm since at least that date. The applicant is proposing to place a dwelling, consisting of a mini home on a permanent 6oundation, on the graved pad when a mini home was previously 423 M&C-- 2011 -63 .3- located with a temporary approval under the Mobile Home Parks By -law. This area is beyond the driveway for the existing dwellings closer to Red Head Road, although the driveway was extended by the applicant in conjunction with the earf ier temporary approval. The dwelling would have access to the municipal sewer along the Paisley Street right -of way and electrical and telephone services were previously extended to the site. Potable water would be obtained from a private well and vehimdar, access would be from the extension to the gravel driveway that was previously constructed. As was the case previously, the applicant does not propose to make any improvements to Paisley Street, 1. Existing City Policy The subject site lies just outside ofthc edge of the Primary Development Arm and is designated Rural Residential by the Municipal Plan. The designation of the site under the previous Municipal Plan was Low Density Residential. The site is currently zoned "R -1B" One Family Residential, which permits a one_ faunify dwelling'. As noted in the Background section of this report, however, Section 40 of the Zoning By -law states that: No building may be erected in the City in respect of whick in the opinion of Cow w d, satisfactory arrangements have not been made for the supply of electrical power, water, sewerage, streets, oi° other services or facilities. 2. Input from Other Sources Municipal Operations and Engineering advises that the street and servicing situation has not changed since the time of the previous request in 2011 _ At that time, the department indicated that this is an undeveloped action of street right- of-way and the street and sun-ices, must be upgraadcd to City standard for development to occur. A sanitary sewer main is available on Paisley Street for connection although municipal water and storm sewer are not available. It was also noted that other lots exist adjacent to this undeveloped right -of - -way and approval of this request may lead to further requests for development, If the development is approved, detailed site and drainage plans will be required by Municipal Operations and Engineering for review and approval as part of the Building Permit process. ' A mini home with a minimum width of 4.8 metros (15.7 feet) and a minimum giaand floor area of 89 squm metres (958 square feet) is considemd to be a one-w4 dwelling, pmvkled flint it is attached to a permanwi founAftm and complies VA& an Building Code requbvCnenIs far a ono- family dwelling. 424 Mmvh 22, 2012 r -- - M & C — 2011 -63 -4- March 22, 2012 Building and Inspection Services has also advised that its comments are unchanged from previously. The development will be requited to meet the same standards applicable to other mobile or mini homes regarding foundations, anchorage, etc. The Fire Department previously advised that they had no objection to the proposal, provided that the development adheres to all pertinent sections of the National Building Code and National Fire Code- 3. Financial Implications As suggested by Mumc ipal Operations and Engineering, the most significant concern with this proposal is the potential for finther requests for building permits for the other lots on this undeveloped street, some ofwbicih are closer to lied Head Road than the subject site. Other developers are required to complete the installation of streets and services in conjunction with their subdivision developments, and this situation should be no diffe=nt. At the very least, the applicant should proAde a minimum "country road standard" paved access and temporary turnaround; however only the use of the existing driveway is being proposed. This, in tarn, will make it more difficult for the remaining lots further along Paisley Stred to be serviced properly in the future, as the developer would have to build a longer section of the street including the area in front of the applicant's lots. As noted by Municipal Operations and Engineering, the road and services should be extended as development occurs. There are many existing lots in the City that do not have developed access or services— It is the policy of the City to not issue building permits for these lots unless the street and services are upgraded. This situation has not changed and the applicant has not provided any new information that would result in a change in staff s recommendation. It is recommended that Common Council not approve the development of the proposed dwelling on PID # 55OD9716 and 55009724, Paisley Street, as satisfactory arrangements have not been made for street access and other services. fly submitted, Ken Forrest, MCIP, RPP Commissioner Planning and Development MRft 425 J.

I moved to Alberta to be closer to our grand children. i have since retired and would like to spend my retirement In the City of Saint John. The city sewer line and power lines are already in place. There is a catch basin located at the front of the property. I have received a letter from E.R. Steeves Ltd stating, 'Given the fact that the proposed residence would be attached to the city sewer...E.R. Steeves Ltd see no reason why a water well cannot be constructed on this property.' I understand the road may require upgrades to meet the municipal standard, however, I have no requests for any improvements nor will I require any such upgrade to meet my needs. I have contacted my neighbours and they have no objection to my mini home being placed on the pad. Thank you for reviewing my request, Sincerely yours, !r." .� .,a.... •.�- ' ' ; * J ; >, stmn Byers X w rV ter,. I • 429
