(Mr. Lund and Mr. Maillais withdrew from the meeting)
Referring to the submitted presentation, Mr. Fudge provided an overview of the 2017
Consolidated Financial Statements. Notable achievements in 2017 include a reduction of
approximately $5M in debt from the General Fund; small surpluses in both the General and
Utility Operating Funds; increased investments in capital assets; and increased contributions to
Operating and Capital Reserves. Responding to a comment, Mr. Fudge noted that the principal
and interest paid to the General Operating Budget is approximately $16.5M which is equivalent

LTA [0000114L1:k]k1119a
1.3 April 2018 Year End Forecast
Mr. Fudge commented on the April 2018 status and year end forecast, adding that these are
early projections and subject to change. There is a $1.6M favourable variance on the revenue
side, largely the result of LNG Revenue. The LNG assessment was not appealed, which resulted
in an additional $2.1M in property tax revenue, triggering a claw back of $943K in the
unconditional grant. Secondment revenue, short term interest revenue, and parking revenue
also contributed to the favourable variance.
In terms of the year end predictions, a surplus of $1.29M is forecast, which represents 0.8% of
the budget. Responding to a question, Mr. Fudge confirmed that the surplus includes the
financial assistance received from the province.
Growth & Community Development, Police/PSCC, Fire & EMO Services, Transportation and
Environment Services, Finance and Administrative Services and Corporate Services, spoke to
their individual results and forecasts to date.
Moved by Councillor Reardon, seconded by Councillor Sullivan:
RESOLVED that the 2018 Year End Forecast, be received for information.
MOTION CARRIED.
Mr. McGovern reviewed the Saint John Water year-end forecast.
Moved by Councillor Reardon, seconded by Councillor Casey:
RESOLVED that the 2018 Year End Forecast for Saint John Water, be received for information.
MOTION CARRIED
Referring to the submitted report, Mr. Fudge stated that this is one of a suite of policies to
guide the development of a long-term financial plan and to promote fiscal responsibility.
Moved by Mayor Darling, seconded by Councillor Reardon:
RESOLVED that the Finance Committee recommends that Common Council approve the Draft
City of Saint John Capital Budget Policy FAS -005.
MOTION CARRIED.
1.5 LNG Revenue
Referring to the Operating Budget Policy's statement that non-recurring revenue be directed to
one time uses and not for funding on-going services, Mr. Fudge recommended allocation of the
net increase to Pay As You Go, in order to reduce the City's long-term debt.
Moved by Councillor Reardon, seconded by Councillor Norton:
RESOLVED that the Finance Committee refer the submitted report to Common Council with a
recommendation to allocate the additional revenue for the LNG facility ($1,157,174) to Pay As
You Go (Capital from Operating) for the purpose of reducing future borrowing needs; noting
that the recommendation is supported by Council's Operating Budget Policy FAS -004.
MOTION CARRIED.
1.6 Update on Flood Watch 2018
Referring to the submitted report, Ms. Graham provided an update on the 2018 flood, including
the costs to date, noting that costs and recovery is still on-going. The City's cost estimate for
the event must be submitted to the province by June 22nd. To date, the City has incurred over
$1M in costs, some of which will be covered either through insurance or NB EMO. Costs not
covered include regular wages, equipment costs, insurance deductible and non-refundable HST.
Overall cost to the City is approximately $308,000.
Moved by Councillor Reardon, seconded by Councillor Norton:

RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that Finance Committee:
• Approve of the project titled Engineering Investigations and Design for
$330,000 and submit to Common Council for the July 30th meeting for
approval.
• Approve the 2019 General Fund Capital Budget and submit to Common
Council for the July 30th meeting for receive and file.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The 2019 Draft General Fund Capital Budget focuses on investments for asset
renewal, while ensuring there is investments for new assets. The draft budget
addresses the infrastructure deficit by focusing on assets that are passed their
useful life and have a high degree of risk of failure that will have a negative
impact on providing services. The budget is coordinating reinvestments that can
have the largest impact on the infrastructure deficit and help achieve strategies,
such as growth of the city.
The budget also focuses on affordability and keeping borrowing to a maximum of
$12 million dollars. The last four capital budgets have been passed with a City
share of no more than $12 million and the 2017 long term debt has seen a
reduction due to this strategy. However, there has been a 1% increase in the
Bank of Canada's interest rate over the past year and the increase cost of
financing future debentures will have an impact on General operating budget.

PREVIOUS RESOLUTION
N/A
STRATEGIC ALIGNMENT
The proposed 2019 General Fund Capital Budget is aligned with Councils'
priorities, Capital Budget Policy, Asset Management Plan, Central Peninsula
Neighborhood Plan, Play SJ, Move SJ and Plan SJ.
REPORT
The 2019 General Fund Capital Budget aligns with Council's priorities to support
investment in creating a Vibrant, Safe City, offering Valued Service Delivery,
Growth and Prosperity and being Fiscally Responsible. The budget also aligns
with the recently approved Capital Budget Policy and the Asset Management
Policy.
The Finance Department received over $25 million in capital budget requests
from service areas for 2019. The requests exceed the $10-$12 million that the
City has established as a financial measure to keep long term debt from growing
to an unsustainable level. Long term debt for the General Fund declined by
$5.04 million over 2016, resulting in an ending balance of $112 million for 2017.
The proposed 2019 General Fund Capital Budget totals $18,292,275 of which
$6,295,166 is to be funded from other sources (gas tax, reserves, government
funding, etc.) and the remainder $11,997,109 is to be funded by debt issue
($11,990,130 in 2018).
2019 CAPITAL BUDGET HIGHLIGHTS
The capital budget decision making was guided by the recently approved Capital
Budget Policy, along with the Asset Management Plan. These plans assist in
addressing the infrastructure deficit, while ensuring replacing existing assets is
balanced with new assets and is aligned with Council Priorities and various City
of Saint John plans, with Plan SJ being the overarching plan.
Capital Budget Policy guided staff in prioritizing the capital budgets based on the
following criteria:
1. Mandatory
2. Risk
3. Priority of Council
4. Positive Financial Impact
5. Discretionary
The capital budget is investing heavily in asset renewal in order to address the
large infrastructure deficit identified in the State of the Infrastructure Report as
AW
-3 -
part of the Asset Management Plan and the allocation of 90% asset renewal and
10% in new assets as stated in the Capital Budget policy. This allocation is a
temporary measure and future capital budget will be guided by the Long Term
Financial Plan.
State of the Infrastructure (SOTI) Report
The General Fund infrastructure deficit was $219.4 million with an estimated
replacement cost of $1.09 billion for those assets. The largest portion of the
deficit identified relates to Transportation and Environment. The majority of
projects being recommended as part of the capital budget have an "F" letter
grade, as measured in the SOTI report, meaning the asset is at high risk of failure
and near or beyond its useful life.
Transportation & Environment
Storm & Transportation
There is $2.99 million in storm and street reconstruction projects. The projects
include street sections on Wentworth Street, Metcalf Street, Mecklenburg
Street, Queen Square North and Chipman Hill and all are past their useful lives.
These projects also include replacing water and sewerage infrastructure as part
of the reconstruction.
The Central Peninsula Neighborhood plan is also being leveraged as part of the
streets being reconstructed. A portion of St. James Street will be reconstructed
in 2019 and several other sections of St. James Street will be considered for the
2020 budget. St. James Street has been identified as a key corridor in the
neighborhood plan and this is a great opportunity to leverage key reinvestment
in assets that align with other City plans.
The capital budget also includes $5.1 million for asphalt resurfacing and
sidewalks and curbs renewal. The key reinvestment in the roads is critical to
ensure roadways maintain or increase the overall PCI and to stop roadways
falling into reconstruction phase. Overall capital investment in roads is $6.77
million which is an increase of 24.36% over 2018 ($5.44 million). Also it is
anticipated there will be $1.7- $2.0 million that will be funding road work
included in the 2019 operating budget.
Saint John Transit
The capital budget recommends replacing two handi buses for a total of 200K.
These buses are past their useful life and will not pass inspection in 2019.

Sports and Recreation
There is $75,000 identified for asset renewal targeting continued investments at
Dominion Park and Rockwood Park.
The Canada Games Aquatic Centre will see $295,000 in capital for replacement
of a portion of its roof, accessibility lift replacements and some piping
replacement. Upgrades to water treatment are also being proposed to mitigate
a potential health hazard. The equipment is rated "F" since the majority is from
1983 and well past its useful life.
The Lord Beaverbrook Rink needs to install a new ammonia gas detection system
for $35K which will mitigate public risk of ammonia exposure.
Corporate, Finance & Administration
Fleet — Funding of $2.5 million from the fleet reserve is included to ensure the
City has the equipment and fleet required to provide necessary public services
without having to increase borrowing. The average age of vehicle being replaced
is past useful life by five years.
Information Technology - The City's information technology is key in supporting
Council and staff initiatives, as well as supporting effective and efficient delivery
of the services provided to residents. The proposed budget includes $575,000 to
replace firewall and network infrastructure with the funding all coming from the
computer reserve fund.
Facility and Equipment Renewal — This budget includes $540,000 to replace
windows well past useful life at Fire station #4 and Adelaide Street facility, as
well as exterior work at Fire Station #8 and Municipal Operations building at
Rothesay Avenue. Ice surface equipment at Peter Murray arena is being
replaced, as well as work at fleet garage due to safety issues and some heat
pump installations.
There are also two major relocations anticipated in 2019 which is City Hall and
North Depot relocations. The relocation of the North Depot and fit up has a
budget of $250,000 and the City Hall relocation and fit up has $3.5M allocated.
Growth and Community Development
The Trade & Convention Centre's request of $82,775 is for the replacement of
their function chairs that have surpassed their useful life is being proposed.
Harbour Station has been allocated $160,500 to replace 1993 equipment, a 1980
floor scrubber as well as building infrastructure that have surpassed useful life.

New Capital Investment
The recently approved Capital Budget policy recommended a temporary
measure of 90% of the capital spend on infrastructure renewal and 10% on new
assets and service enhancements. The recommended budget has 90.91% of
assets for renewal 9.09% for new assets
Saint John Fieldhouse — The City has committed $3.36M over three years and
2019 is the second year of that commitment for $1.4M (2020 - $564,400). This
funding commitment was made before the Capital policy was approved,
however in the future projects like this would not be borrowed for since the
asset does not belong to the City of Saint John.
Parking - The budget earmarks $62,000 for enhancements to the City's parking
meters. These new meters are a service enhancement for customers and have
an operational savings as there is no printed parking slips.
Playgrounds - The City is currently working on a partnership that will see a
significant investment from a third party that would see an enhancement to an
existing playground or a new playground. The City is earmarking $200,000 for its
contribution.
It should be noted that two of the projects (Chipman Hill and Westworth Street)
listed in the draft program were formally announced funding on July 10, 2018
under the Clean Water Wastewater Fund. Given the funding commitments that
have been made and to allow commencement of design work relating to these
projects it is being recommended that early approval by Finance Committee and
subsequently by Council be granted.
CONCLUSION
Planned capital expenditures total $18,292,275, with $6,295,166 is to be funded
from other sources (gas tax, reserves, government funding etc.) and the
remainder $11,997,109 funded through debt. The annual funding from other
government programs, along with Council's fiscal restraint, has helped reduce
projected borrowing costs while still investing in needed infrastructure
improvements.
The long term financial plan will set out a 10 year capital budget, that will guide
decision making to ensure strategic reinvestments are being made, at the right
time, the infrastructure deficit in being addressed, fiscal responsibility is being
maintained, while ensuring the City continues to invest in assets to help with
growth.

FINANCE COMMITTEE REPORT
Report Date July 17, 2018
Meeting Date July 19, 2018
Chairman Councillor Merrithew and Members of Finance Committee
SUBJECT. 2.2 Finance Committee Report 2019 Utility Fund Capital Budget. docx
OPEN OR CLOSED SESSION
This matter is to be discussed in open session of Finance Committee.
AUTHORIZATION

RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that Finance Committee:
• Approve of the project titled Engineering Investigations and Design for
$205,000 and submit to Common Council for the July 30th meeting for
approval.
• Approve the 2019 Utility Fund Capital Budget and submit to Common
Council for the July 30th meeting for receive and file.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The draft 2019 Utility Fund Capital Budget reflects the financial challenges faced
by the Utility after the completion of the largest municipal infrastructure project
in the history of the Province of New Brunswick, the Safe Clean Drinking Water
Project (SCDWP).
The Utility is proposing a very limited capital budget for 2019 that focuses on
leveraging monies from other levels of government for investments being made
by the Utility. Increased debt, limited growth, a large infrastructure deficit and
escalating rates are challenges facing the Utility for both the medium and long
term. A new rate structure to be completed in 2018, along with the Long Term
Financial plan to be completed in 2019 will provide the road map for the Utility
to deal with these challenges.
01
-2 -
PREVIOUS RESOLUTION
N/A
STRATEGIC ALIGNMENT
The proposed 2019 Utility Fund Capital Budget is aligned with Councils'
priorities, Asset Management Plan, and Capital Budget policy.
REPORT
The proposed 2019 Draft Utility Capital Budget is a total of $7,595,500. Funding
from other sources, (Gas tax, government funding, etc.) is $2,896,480 and Saint
John Water's share is $4,699,020 and will be funded from pay as you go.
The completion of the Safe Clean Drinking Water project and Harbour Cleanup
has caused the Utility's long term debt to peak at just over $107 million at the
end of 2017. This significant debt coupled with escalated rates, stagnant growth
and pending changes to industrial rate structures will be challenging for the
Utility as it tackles the infrastructure deficit. The deficit as reported to Council as
part of the State of the Infrastructure report is approximately $214,362,470
which represents almost half of the City's infrastructure deficit.
The completion of the rate study in 2018, along with the Asset Management Plan
and Long Term Financial plan will guide the Utility's decision making around
asset replacement and how to fund the infrastructure deficit to ensure services
are reliably provided to rate payers while balancing the ability to fund more
investments in infrastructure renewal.
Infrastructure Renewal — Water and Sanitary
There are several proposed street rebuild projects that are included in the
budget and these are projects that involve the general fund. These projects have
assets underground and are at a high risk of failure due to their age and material
type. Numerous streets within the draft program have terra cotta sanitary
sewers, some of which were installed in 1889 & 1895 and cast iron watermain
installed in the early 1900s.
The total capital for the Utility on street rebuilds is $2,435,500 and these street
sections include; Chipman Hill, Wentworth Street, Queen Square North,
Mecklenburg Street, Metcalf Street and St. James Street.
St. James Street is a prime example of leveraging assets that need to be replaced
and aligning with the City's priority of growth. This street was listed on the
Central Peninsula Neighborhood plan as key corridor and this transformational
-3 -
project will be coordinated between; Transportation, Water and Growth and
Development.
Other projects for 2019 that benefit both the Utility and help to grow Saint John
are projects such as; Beach Crescent Lift Station and Lakewood Heights Sanitary
System, as well as a project to regain capacity within the Millidgeville Sewer
Shed. These projects are all geared towards asset renewal and environmental
protection, while creating capacity on the system for growth initiatives without
having to build new infrastructure — a best use of assets.
The budget also includes phase sixteen of watermain cleaning and lining that will
continue to extend the life of these assets while minimizing the need for
investment by lining as opposed to replacing. Michael Crescent and Ellerdale
Street will see the renewal of service connections. All with the goal of improving
service reliability.
The last portion of the Safe Clean Drinking Water project has been included as
well as the installation of a permanent Orthophosphate System as part of the
West side well system. The 2019 budget will include a flood mapping plan for the
East Branch Musquash system and a mitigation plan to alleviate risk from future
flooding.
It should be noted that two of the projects (Chipman Hill and Wentworth Street)
listed in the draft program were formally announced funding on July 10, 2018
under the Clean Water Wastewater Fund. Given the funding commitments that
have been made and to allow commencement of design work relating to these
projects it is being recommended that early approval by Finance Committee and
subsequently by Council be granted.
Conclusion
In conclusion, the 2019 budget is focused on leveraging Utility investments as
much as possible and while it will not achieve much in terms of reducing the
infrastructure deficit, key projects have been chosen that are long past their
useful life and have a high risk of failure. There are several projects that are
asset renewal that are being done to extend the life of the asset but a number of
these projects have a dual purpose, having a positive impact on growth.
The 2019 Draft Utility Capital budget is a smaller, strategic and prudent budget.
Until the Utility can firmly wrap up the SCDWP, complete the rate study and its
long term financial plan, an austerity budget is the best plan.
SERVICE AND FINANCIAL OUTCOMES
The 2019 Utility Fund Capital budget will be funded from the operations (pay as
you go) and from other sources of funding.
