Head CAO Yves Leger Michael Baker/lan Fogan Brent McGovern RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that Common Council amend the list of Official Street Names and approve the following change: 1. Add the name "cour Aquarius Court". EXECUTIVE SUMMARY A new development off Fairville Boulevard, consisting of a new multi -unit residential and commercial building has been approved. The developer also has plans for another multi -unit residential building on the same property, as part of a second phase of development. Because the total number of uniquely addressed residences and businesses that will access the entire development through one entrance is greater than two, the private access into the development requires an official street name in order to meet NB 9-1-1 civic addressing guidelines. As per the City of Saint John Street and Public Space Naming Policy, Staff asked the developer to suggest a street name for the private access into the development and the developer suggested "cour Aquarius Court". This street name meets NB 9-1-1 guidelines and is therefore acceptable. PREVIOUS RESOLUTION None. REPORT A new development off Fairville Boulevard, consisting of a new multi -unit residential and commercial building has been approved. The developer also has plans for another multi -unit residential building on the same property, as part of a second phase of development. The second building would be built to the north- 13 -2- west of the first building, and would also be accessed from the one entrance into this development. Because the total number of unique civic addresses needed for the planned development that would be accessed through one entrance is greater than two, the private access into the development requires an official street name in order to meet NB 9-1-1 civic addressing guidelines. As per the City of Saint John Street and Public Space Naming Policy, this is not a commemorative name, therefore does not need to be referred to the Civic Commemoration Committee. Staff asked the developer to suggest a street name for the access into the development (see attachment) and the developer has suggested "cour Aquarius Court". The street name has undergone a technical review to ensure it does not currently exist and is not strongly similar sounding to existing streets in Saint John, nor in neighbouring communities and therefore meets NB 9-1-1 guidelines for street names. STRATEGIC ALIGNMENT Ensuring street names meet NB 9-1-1 guidelines aligns directly with Council's "Vibrant, Safe City" priority. SERVICE AND FINANCIAL OUTCOMES The costs to the City of Saint John for this are approximately $265 associated with installing the new street name sign at the intersection with Fairville Boulevard. INPUT FROM OTHER SERVICE AREAS AND STAKEHOLDERS Public Works and Transportation Services were consulted and will cover the costs from their operating budget.

Section 59 No Agreement Section 131 No Ag reement Other No WA PLANNING ADVISORY COMMITTEE August 16, 2023 Her Worship Mayor Donna Noade Reardon and Members of Common Council Your Worship and Councillors: SUBJECT: Rezoning Application — 351 Latimore Lake Road On July 24, 2023, Common Council referred the above matter to the Planning Advisory Committee for a report and recommendation. The Committee considered the attached report at its August 15, 2023, meeting. Mr. Bill Cook, the applicant, appeared before the Committee and expressed agreement with the staff recommendation. He noted his business does not generate high traffic volumes. In addition, he noted his current site on Oakland Avenue, is located next to a daycare. Nathalie Leclair and Preston Chiasson of 11 Likely Road appeared before the Committee with concerns about noise and clear cutting related to the proposed development. N'n11 C The City of Saint John The applicant reappeared before the Committee and noted that his company is not a large company with two employees plus himself and that the manufactured dwelling relocation business uses two trucks, a larger tractor trailer and a half -ton service truck. The larger truck and float are used a couple of times per week. The business operates from mid -May to mid -December. It was noted the proposed compound would be used to store the trucks and supplies. Manufactured dwellings would not be constructed or stored on the site. Responding to questions from Committee members, Mr. Cook noted he has been at the current location for 24 years with no complaints from neighbouring properties. With respect to concerns related to tree clearing on the site, he noted an area to accommodate two trucks and two floats would be cleared and that the compound would not likely be visible from adjacent properties. Mark Reade, Senior Planner with Growth and Community Services responded to a question from the Committee noting the approval of the rezoning allows for the permanent establishment of the proposed uses on the site. Page 1 of 4 23 Bill Cook 351 Latimore Lake Road August 16, 2023 No other persons appeared before the Committee and two letters were received with concerns regarding the development. Following consideration of the presentations and letters the Committee adopted Staff Recommendation to recommend approval of the rezoning.

Page 1 of 8 27 William Cook 351 Latimore Lake Road August 10, 2023 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The applicant is proposing to rezone the site to allow for the placement of a mini home at 351 Latimore Lake Road (PID 00334631) and structures associated with a manufactured dwelling transportation business on the adjacent parcel (PID 00421727). The rezoning would accommodate the relocation of the applicant due to their current residential property being acquired for the Retail Drive Realignment. Given the need for a site -specific zoning to accommodate both a residential and commercial use, staff are recommending the Integrated Development (ID) Zone with site specific standards based on the Rural Mixed Residential (RMX) and the Rural General Commercial (CRG) zones, subject to Section 59 conditions.

DECISION HISTORY There are no relevant past applications or approvals related to the subject application. ANALYSIS Proposal The applicant is proposing to place a mini home and construct an accessory building (three car garage) on the property located at 351 Latimore Lake Road (PID 00334631). Additional accessory building(s) and a fenced compound would be constructed on the property to the northwest (PID 00421727) to accommodate the applicant's mobile home and mini home transportation business. The portion of the site accommodating the business will be accessed through the property at 351 Latimore Lake Road. Structures associated with the commercial use will accommodate trucks, a trailer, tools, and equipment used in the moving and transport of manufactured dwellings. Site and Neighbourhood The subject site is in the Latimore Lake area of east Saint John, along the north side of Latimore Lake Road east of Hickey Road and Grandview Avenue. The site is currently vacant with a former dwelling and accessory building located in the southeast portion of the site demolished in between 2012 and 2014. The southeast parcel is zoned Rural Residential (RR) with the northwestern parcel zoned Rural (RU). The surrounding neighbourhood contains single unit dwellings and mini/mobile homes on properties zoned Rural Residential and Rural, vacant rural lands, and aggregate extraction operations zoned Pit and Quarry (PQ). The City's water treatment facility and the Little River Reservoir are located approximately 1 kilometre east of the site. Other non-residential uses in Page 4 of 8 30 William Cook 351 Latimore Lake Road August 10, 2023 the vicinity of the subject site include a vehicle repair garage zoned Rural General Commercial (CRG), located 1.2 kilometres east of the subject site along with a cemetery (Oceanview Memorial Gardens) and the Latimore Lake Community Centre located within a kilometre of the site to the west. The community centre and cemetery are zoned Neighbourhood Community Facility (CFN) and Park (P) respectively. Municipal Plan and Rezoning Municipal Plan Schedule `B' (future land use) of the Municipal Plan designates the southeast portion of the site (PID 00334631) as Rural Residential with the rear portion of the site (PID 00421727) designated as Rural Resource. The Plan contemplates commercial land uses in the Rural Resource and Rural Residential land use designation where they can complement the rural residential character and rural nature of the surrounding neighbourhoods. The Plan also supports the provision of manufactured housing in all areas of the City. An assessment of the proposal with respect to the policies of the Municipal Plan is provided in Attachment 2. The proposed development conforms to the policies of the Municipal Plan. Rezoning The applicant has requested a rezoning to accommodate a mini home and accessory building on the front portion of the property (PID 00334631) and a second accessory building and storage compound on the rear portion of the site (PID 00421727) to accommodate the applicant's mobile home and mini home transportation business. Given both a residential and commercial use are proposed for the site, along with the need to have the area providing access to the rear portion of the site having the same zoning as the portion of the site containing the commercial use, Staff are proposing to rezone the site to Integrated Development (ID). The ID zone provides for developments which consist of a combination of land uses, buildings, or structures in accordance with a specific development proposal described in a resolution or agreement in conjunction with Section 59 of the Community Planning Act. The ID zone does not provide for a prescriptive list of permitted uses and detailed design standards such as height and setbacks. Instead, a specific development proposal, such as the one proposed for the site, would be accommodated through a suite of Section 59 conditions and/or agreements that would outline the permitted uses and standards for the proposal including setbacks, height, and built form. Zoning By -Law and development considerations are discussed below with respect to the proposed development. Zone standards for the proposed site have been developed based on two of the City's zones: the Rural Mixed Residential zone, developed in 2020 to provide for additional inclusion of manufactured housing in the City's rural areas, and the Rural General Commercial (CRG) zone. The Rural General Commercial zone permits a range of commercial uses including a household contractor service which aligns with the scope of services provided by the applicant's manufactured dwelling transportation business. Page 5 of 8 31 William Cook 351 Latimore Lake Road August 10, 2023 A household contractor service is defined as an establishment that provides electrical, heating, painting, plumbing, or similar small-scale contractor service primarily to individual households, and includes the accessory sale of goods provided all materials are kept within an enclosed building and there is no manufacturing involved. While the activities associated with the use align with the general contractor service, this use has the potential to involve an outdoor storage compound in addition to accessory building(s). This can be accommodated through Section 59 conditions related to the location and buffering of the storage compound to minimize its visual impact. Specific Section 59 conditions recommended for the proposal are discussed below. Proposed Uses As the proposal is to rezone the site to Integrated Development (ID), the Section 59 conditions will need to define the nature of the commercial and residential uses permitted in the development. Currently the site generally permits residential and resource related uses. The following permitted uses are proposed by Community Planning which incorporate the additional uses from the RMX and CRG zones to provide flexibility for future uses of the site. These uses would be permitted in addition to the commercial use as proposed by the applicant. Artist or Craftsperson Studio; Home Occupation, subject to section 9.9; Bakery; Medical Clinic; Bed and Breakfast; Mobile or Mini -Home, subject to paragraph 10.11(2)(j); Business Office, subject to paragraph 11.11(3)(a); Outdoor Storage; Community Centre; Personal Service; Community Policing Office; Pet Grooming; Contractor Service, Household; Place of Worship; Day Care, Home, subject to paragraph 9.5(a); Retail General; Day Care, Neighbourhood, subject to paragraph 9.5(b); Secondary Suite, subject to section 9.13; Day Care Centre; Service and Repair, Household; Dwelling, One -Unit; Supportive Facility — minor; Dwelling, Two -Unit; Supportive Housing, subject to section 9.14; Garden Suite, subject to section 9.8; Veterinary Clinic; Zone Standards Community Planning recommend that for efficiency of administration, that zone standards be subject to Section 59 conditions that base specific development standards on existing provisions of the Zoning By -Law that are representative of the surrounding rural context. Specific elements will be regulated as follows: o Setbacks will be based on the standards of the Rural General Commercial Zone. o Parking and access to the site will be regulated through the existing provisions of the Zoning By -Law. Page 6 of 8 32 William Cook 351 Latimore Lake Road August 10, 2023 o Signage will be regulated through the signage provisions contained in Chapter 7 of the Zoning By -Law with the subject site considered to be a residential zone for the purposes of regulating signage. o Accessory Buildings and fencing will be regulated in accordance with Chapter 5 of the Zoning By -Law with the site considered a commercial zone for the purposes of regulating fences and accessory buildings. Outdoor Storage Outdoor storage will be a component of the proposed commercial use on the site. Staff recommend that this outdoor storage be subject to the following standards: (a) The storage area shall be completely enclosed by a wooden fence or a chain -link fence entirely covered by filler strips woven into the mesh or a walled structure or a berm, or any combination thereof, which may also include a gate; (b) The enclosure required by paragraph (a), including any gate, shall have a maximum height of 2.5, metres; (c) The enclosure shall not occupy any required yard or any area required for amenity or parking; and (d) Notwithstanding the above, an outdoor storage area may instead be enclosed with landscaping in accordance with paragraph 6.1(k) of the Zoning By -Law or by any combination of permitted structures, berms, and landscaping. Staff also recommend a condition requiring a detailed site plan be submitted with any permit application showing the location of site features including all buildings, the fenced storage compound, and regulated wetland boundaries, and parking and access areas. A preliminary site plan is provided as an appendix to the report. The development layout shown on the site plan will require Development Office variances related to driveway location and side yard and flankage yard setbacks. The site is proximate to a wetland. The New Brunswick Department of Environment and Local Government has advised that a Wetland and Watercourse Alteration permit and wetland delineation will be required. A delineation has been required and the wetland boundary is located approximately 15 metres further from the site than shown on Provincial wetland mapping. Temporary Use In addition to the rezoning application, Community Planning is proposing a temporary use approval to allow the site to be used for the applicant's proposal in advance of the completion of the rezoning application process. Page 7 of 8 33 William Cook 351 Latimore Lake Road August 10, 2023 A temporary use approval is granted for a one-year period. This would allow for the applicant, at their risk, to apply for the required development and building permits and commence work prior to the completion of the rezoning process. The intent of this approach is to provide the applicant with flexibility, if they require it, to commence work associated with the placement of the mini home and construction of the accessory buildings. Servicing and Traffic and Fire and Emergency Services Infrastructure Development is supportive of the proposed development Fire and Emergency Management Services is supportive of the overall concept and has no objections to the proposed uses. Conclusion Staff recommend approval of the application as it conforms to the overall intent of the Municipal Plan and the proposed Integrated Development zone aligns with the general uses permitted within the broader rural neighbourhood. The proposed temporary use approval will provide flexibility for the applicant to move forward with the development, based on their required timeline. Given this, staff recommend the rezoning to the Integrated Development zone, subject to Section 59 conditions. ALTERNATIVES AND OTHER CONSIDERATIONS No alternatives were assessed. ENGAGEMENT Public In accordance with the Committee's Rules of Procedure, notification of the proposal was sent to landowners within 100 metres of the subject property on August 1, 2023. Notice of the Public Hearing will be posted on the City of Saint John website on or before August 15, 2023.

The Committee considered the attached report at its August 15, 2023, meeting. The City of Saint John The applicant and owner of 50 MacAuley Avenue, James Chedore, was in attendance and expressed agreement with Staff Recommendation. He explained that the addition and subsequent creation of the additional unit was being built for his parents so that he could look after them in place as they age. Responding to questions from members of the committee, Thomas Lewallen, Planner with Growth and Community Services, confirmed no variances were required related to setbacks from property lines. With respect to the mix of One -Unit Residential (R1), and Two -Unit Residential (R2) zoning along the street, Community Planning Manager, Jennifer Kirchner noted that unless an individual property owner, or collectively as a street, approached the City with an application to rezone their properties, and outside of a newly adopted Zoning By-law, it was not appropriate to rezone landowners properties without their consent or awareness. No other persons appeared before the Committee and no letters from the public were received regarding the application. Following consideration of the presentation and Staff report, the Committee unanimously adopted Staff recommendation as presented below.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The applicant is requesting to rezone 50 MacAuley Avenue to facilitate the conversion an existing single-family home to a side -by -side duplex. The property is currently zoned One -Unit Residential (R1). Rezoning from One -Unit Residential (R1) to Two -Unit Residential (R2) is required to facilitate the conversion of the building addition into a second dwelling unit. Page 1 of 4 71 James Chedore 50 MacAuley Avenue August 10, 2023 RECOMMENDATION 1. That Common Council rezone a parcel of land having an area of approximately 841 square metres, located at 50 MacAuley Avenue, also identified as PID Number 55176341 from One -Unit Residential (R1) to Two -Unit Residential (R2). ANALYSIS Proposal The applicant is requesting to rezone 50 MacAuley Avenue to facilitate the creation of an additional dwelling unit to be located within an approved addition to the existing single-family dwelling. The new dwelling unit will be constructed within the addition to the existing building and will share a common wall. Currently zoned One -Unit Residential (R1), it is necessary to rezone the property to Two -Unit Residential (R2) in order to facilitate the conversion of the property from a single-family home to a two -unit residential building. The applicant will provide the requisite number of off-street parking stalls for the existing and newly created dwelling unit as mandated in the Zoning By-law. Site and Neighbourhood The subject site is located in the Millidgeville neighbourhood of the City. The property currently functions as a single-family dwelling. The broader neighbourhood contains various residential building types, with single-family homes, duplexes, and townhomes being the most common housing morphology. There are three schools within walking distance to the subject property, M. Gerald Teed Memorial School, Ecole Millidgeville North School, and Centre scolaire Samuel -de - Champlain. There are also a handful of nursing and retirement homes within the neighbourhood. While the neighbourhood is predominantly accessed via a personal vehicle, there is a sidewalk network along the eastern side of MacAuley Avenue that connects to arterial streets such as the intersection of Woodward and Millidge Avenue, providing access to bike lanes along University Avenue and Millidge Avenue as well as access to the City's bus network on routes 3N and 3S. Bus Route 3, traverse to and from McAllister Place in the East, with a connection point at King's Square Uptown, with its final point being the Saint John Regional Hospital and UNB. The property is located within the Stable Residential area of the Municipal Plan. The surrounding area is predominantly composed of Stable Residential, Low to Medium Density Residential, and Major Community Facility as designated in the Municipal Plan. With this diverse designation area, there are diverse commercial and service -based uses that will be beneficial for the future residents. This includes a nearby commercial node featuring grocery stores, pharmacies, and restaurants. Zoning and the Municipal Plan The subject site is currently zoned One -Unit Residential (R1) and accommodates serviced residential development in the form of one -unit dwellings and allows for the creation of a second dwelling unit in the form of either a garden suite or a secondary suite. Due to the size of the proposed second unit, it cannot conform with the requirements and intent of a secondary or Page 2 of 4 72 James Chedore 50 MacAuley Avenue August 10, 2023 garden suite. Therefore, in order to permit the conversion of half of the residential building into a second dwelling unit, the property must be rezoned to Two -Unit Residential (R2). Two -Unit Residential (R2) accommodates serviced residential development in the form of semi-detached dwellings, two -unit dwellings, and one -unit dwellings. Given that the area is predominant zoned R1 and R2 which both permit up to two dwelling units on each property, the proposed rezoning will not alter the density potential for the neighbourhood but will rather allow a different building typology than what is permitted in the R1 zone. The conversion of single-family dwelling unit into a side -by -side duplex fits neatly within the existing built form and neighbourhood context. Stable Residential Areas are intended to accommodate development at a scale and density consistent with the surrounding environment. Within the Stable Residential designation, housing of almost every form and density may be found and both the existing neighbourhood context and compatibility with the Municipal Plan goals will determine suitability of new proposals. Areas designated Stable Residential are expected to evolve over time from a land use and built -form perspective, but it is important that new and redeveloped land uses reinforce the predominant community character and make a positive contribution to the neighbourhood. Given the proposed scale and location of the proposal, combined with the analysis presented in the attached Municipal Plan policy analysis, the proposal conforms to the Municipal Plan. Infrastructure and Protective Services The City's Infrastructure Development, Building and Fire and Emergency Management Service Areas also reviewed the proposal. As per any proposal of this nature, the applicant will be required to apply for a building permit and meet all necessary City requirements. This includes meeting the standards of the National Building Code of Canada. No concerns were raised by the City's Service Areas. Conclusion The proposed conversion of an existing detached dwelling unit into a two -unit residential building is supported by the Municipal Plan and aligns with the established neighbourhood context and development patterns. The rezoning is recommended related to the development of the site.

Do you have a copy of the proposed building plans that will be implemented? They have been working on construction of what appears to be a garage for the past year plus and we are interested to know if that is what is being referenced in the letter received. PS - I don't love the idea of rezoning our residential R1 zone as it will negatively impact property values where my family has chosen to live/invest and caused increased traffic on an already busy street. That said I value of higher population density and increase tax revenue for city. Thanks! Cheers, Mark B.

Page 1 of 5 110 Peter David O'Brien 90 Wilton Street August 10, 2023 RECOMMENDATION That Common Council rezone a parcel of land having an area of approximately 965 square metres, located at 90 Wilton Street, also identified as PID Number 55218192, from Two -Unit Residential (R2) to Mid -Rise Residential (RM). DECISION HISTORY There is no decision history on this site. ANALYSIS Proposal The applicant is proposing to rezone the subject site to Mid -Rise Residential (RM) to legalize an existing 7-unit building. The rezoning would bring the property into compliance with the Zoning By-law. The building consists of one 1-unit bedroom in the basement, one 3-bedroom unit on the main floor, two 2-bedroom units on the second floor, and one 2-unit and two bachelor suites on the top floor. The second floor units share an access into internal hallways, as do the third floor units but each floor has separate exterior access. Each unit is also provided with onsite parking. The property owner is submitting the application to legalize the multi -unit building which has existed for decades. Site and Neighbourhood The subject site is located on the Saint John East Side just south of Westmorland Heights area. The immediate residential neighbourhood is low density zoning which supports single and semi- detached homes. The houses in this area were built between the late 1920's and the early 1950's making it a well -established neighborhood. The broader surrounding area, including Bayside Drive, is characterized by having a mixture of land uses that supports a diverse range of housing typologies with varying densities, commercial uses, and community facilities uses. While the majority of the area is zoned for low density in the form of Two -Unit Residential, there is a dispersion of Low -Rise Residential and Mid -Rise Residential in the area with similar lot sizes and building typology as the subject site. The nearby commercial node along Bayside Drive is largely General Commercial (CG) and corridor commercial and includes a variety of restaurants, a car wash, a gas station and other small businesses. Community uses, including Bayside Middle School, Bayview School, the East Side Public Library branch, and a variety of churches also are present in the wider neighbourhood. The subject site is accessible by a variety of transportation options. The area is served by Saint John Transit Route 3, 9, and 33, with transit stops for Route 3 and 9 located across the street of the subject site and transit stops for Route 33 within 300 metres of the property. Routes 3 and 9 are main routes which provide connections between the University, the Regional Hospital, Uptown and McAllister Place. Route 33 is an East Side Route which connects the Uptown to the Little River Reservoir Park. Although Wilton Street does not feature sidewalks, pedestrian Page 2 of 5 111 Peter David O'Brien 90 Wilton Street August 10, 2023 movement is facilitated by sidewalks on Park Avenue on both the east and west sides, which connect to the wider pedestrian network. Municipal Plan and Rezoning Municipal Plan The site is designated as Stable Residential in the Municipal Plan. An analysis of the proposal with respect to the relevant policies of the Municipal Plan is provided in Attachment 2. The proposal conforms to the policies established within the Municipal Plan, which supports the diversification of housing typologies within established neighbourhoods. While a density target is not provided for Stable Residential areas, housing of almost every form and density may be found. Development proposals located within existing neighbourhoods should take into account the existing neighbourhood context and should reinforce the predominant community character and make a positive contribution to the existing neighbourhood. The rezoning application is for an existing 7-unit residential building which will not require any exterior alterations to support the legalization of the 7 dwelling units that have existed for decades. The proposed development is compatible with the vision established within the Municipal Plan, as the proposed development: • Provides densification in an area with existing municipal services. • Is compatible with surrounding land uses given the variety of existing building typologies and dwelling types found within the area, including other properties zoned for higher density. The proposal represents an opportunity to support additional density in a suburban context while retaining the community character, as the proposed development utilizes an existing building and no changes to the exterior of the building are required. The legalization of this development would also ensure the preservation of 2- and 3-bedroom dwelling units which are a housing typology needed within the City. As this is an existing building with a history of being multi -unit despite the zoning, it conforms to the neighbourhood context. From the analysis of the proposed development for alignment with the Municipal Plan Policies (Attachment 2), staff are of the opinion that the proposed development achieves the intent of the Municipal Plan based on the proposed use in the development. Zoning The Mid -Rise Residential (RL) Zone accommodates a range of medium -density residential uses ranging from a single -detached dwelling to multi -unit buildings. The RM zone is compatible with the surrounding development pattern and would bring the subject site into compliance with the Zoning By-law. The proposed 7-unit development aligns with the regulations established for the RM zone within the City's Zoning By-law. This includes the provision of the required onsite parking spaces to support the dwelling units. Page 3 of 5 112 Peter David O'Brien 90 Wilton Street August 10, 2023 Section 59 Conditions and The Affordable Housing Action Plan Common practice in the City of Saint John has been to include a Section 59 condition that limits proposed rezonings to a maximum number of dwelling units. The unit number caps have always been tied to the specific proposal presented as part of the rezoning process and have been used to tie a rezoning to a very specific development proposal. This trend has resulted in an increased number of Section 59 amendment applications being submitted to allow increases to the unit count within existing developments and occasionally in advance of new construction projects. These increases are often minimal in nature and are typically the result of design changes to the size of proposed dwelling units as opposed to expansion of the existing or proposed building footprint. With the adoption of the City's Affordable Housing Action Plan, staff are looking at amending previous practices to "permit/encourage various innovative housing models to help expand the supply of housing". While the applicant has proposed to rezone to Mid -Rise Residential to accommodate the seven existing units, staff undertook an assessment of the existing building and property to determine if there would be existing capacity for a possible unit increase in the future. If a proposal were to be brought forward to increase the unit count above the existing seven -units, it would be subject to the standards established in the RM zoning, as well as being required to meet the requirements of the National Building Code of Canada. The owner would also be required to apply for a Change of use Permit which will allow Building to review floor plans and conduct an inspection of fire separation and safety. While the existing building has a large footprint and lot size, based on the standards of the RM zone it does hit the threshold of lot area size for the number of units. It also has a limited capacity for parking. In the future, any expansion of residential use would require variance applications that require a staff review which acts as mechanism to limit growth on the site. Staff recommend not requiring any Section 59 conditions to restrict the site as the requirements of the Zoning Bylaw and the Building Code act as structures to limit the development of the site beyond the existing or future use. Conclusion The proposed rezoning to legalize an existing 7-unit residential development aligns with the policies established in the City's Municipal Plan and conforms to the City's Zoning By-law. The proposed rezoning will facilitate the continued use of the property as a low -density multi -unit building. Staff are recommending approval of the rezoning. ALTERNATIVES AND OTHER CONSIDERATIONS No alternatives were considered. ENGAGEMENT Page 4 of 5 113 Peter David O'Brien 90 Wilton Street August 10, 2023 In accordance with the Committee's Rules of Procedure, notification of the proposal was sent to landowners within 100 metres of the subject property on July 31, 2023. The public hearing notice will be posted on the City of Saint John website on or before August 14, 2023.

Yes About your Submission Topic of submission Taxi cabs don't appear to be properly regulated. Tourists returning to the airport are being transported in the most expensive way possible. We are part of a tour that used taxi cabs from uptown St John to the ST John airport. Two separate cabs using the freeway were charged C$50 on the meter whereas others taking another route were charged approx C$35. I only remember my cab #382. Our tour director also said she had been charged approx $50 untio realizing that she was overpaying because the drivers found the most lucrative route for themselves. I would suggest this is a PR negative that will be addressed unless you take action. Purpose for submission (what is the ask of council): Regulate the taxi cabs that take advantage of tourists and others in need of the service.

Executive summary There is no safe way for pedestrian traffic to walk to UNBSJ from the North End or Uptown areas. Any walker who seeks to travel to UNB by foot from Uptown has to walk on the narrow, rocky shoulders of either Samuel Davis drive or Sandy Point road. The university is a hub for many people in the city, some of whom seek to integrate eco-friendly or health conscious methods of getting to and from campus into their daily schedule. An addition of a sidewalk in either of these locations would ensure a safe method of walking to campus for those who seek to do so.

Page 1 of 22 `C:d Fundy Regional Service Commission ♦ Commission de Services Regionaux de Fundy DRAFT 2024 FRSC Budget BACKGROUND/PAST RESOLUTIONS As part of the 2024 FRSC budget development process, the FRSC Board adopted budget evaluation criteria and timeline on June 5th, 2023. The six criteria that guided the development of the 2024 FRSC budget include: 1. Incrementality: The FRSC remains in a "start-up" mode as it navigates the onboarding of its new mandated services, and the Commissions is experiencing demands and pressures to adapt quickly to build new processes, structure, and ultimately, value. The Commission's ability to adjust will take -time, and highest -impact and -need priorities should be pursued in the immediate future. 2. Regional Strategy: The FRSC will adopt a five-year regional strategy, which will provide a vision for the Fundy Region and an inventory of actions to be integrated into annual work plans and budgets. Actions identified in the strategy will invite opportunities to access funding from the Government of New Brunswick. 3. Delivering Valuable Service: The FRSC is a service provider, with over ten years of delivering valuable service to the Fundy Region as a professional public sector organization. The FRSC will strive to deliver early and lasting services within its new mandate. Value can originate from service gaps or service improvements, with an objective of upholding economies of scale and cross -community collaboration. 4. Financial Capacity: The FRSC respects the financial capacity of its members, including the acknowledgement of the organizational and financial transition experienced at the local level as result of the local governance reform agenda. 5. Continuous Improvement: The FRSC will seek opportunities to generate cost savings and new revenue opportunities through an embedded culture of continuous improvement. This will include maximizing the opportunity to access third -party funding, including those originating from the Government of New Brunswick and the Government of Canada. 6. Accountability and Transparency: The development of the annual FRSC budget will be guided by a commitment to be transparent and intentional throughout the process. The FRSC will build ample opportunity for feedback amongst members, invite predictability into the development process, and ultimately uphold strategic and responsible financial decision making. This mandate included a sequence of interactions within the development and decision -making process (see timeline as Attachment #3). As part of this sequencing, the budget document (report and summary budget) was reviewed with the FRSC Executive Committee and the regional group of chief administrative Page 2 of 22 fi"M Fundy Regional Service Commission • Commission de Services Regionaux de Fundy DRAFT 2024 FRSC Budget officers prior to the submission of this report to the FRSC Board of Directors, and as a result, valuable feedback was received and adjustments were made to the documents. On August 3rd, 2023, the FRSC Board of Directors received a staff report on preliminary themes of the 2024 FRSC Budget, which outlined a variety of drivers that are influencing the development of the 2024 budget, including: • Opportunities and challenges associated with the landfill. • Successfully leveraging Government of New Brunswick funding to offset new costs on the Commission. • Continued human resource pressures. • Projected cost -savings through regional facilities. • Fixed costs for regional economic development and tourism promotion. The Government of New Brunswick's Regional Service Delivery Act stipulates parameters in the budget approval process for regional service commissions under Article 28: "A Board shall not vote on a budget for the Commission, borrow money or set fees for services unless the Commission has given written notice of the vote and a copy of the proposed budget, borrowing or fees to its members that are local governments and to the Minister at least 45 days before the vote." The FRSC Board of Directors' vote to initiate the 45-day review period requires a "simple majority of all members present", while the vote to adopt the budget, currently scheduled for October 24t", 2023, requires "2/3 of the voting members present, who represent at least 51% of the total population represented by all the voting members present." FINANCIAL, ECONOMIC, ENVIRONMENTAL, AND SOCIAL CONSIDERATIONS The approved 2023 FRSC budget included an operating budget of $18,337,205 and a capital budget of $2,249,000. The draft 2024 FRSC budget proposes a budget of $19,342,626 and a capital budget of $ 1,078,000 (see summary budget document in Attachment #5). Approximately 94% of the expenses within the draft 2024 FRSC budget fall within three service areas, including: (1) solid waste, (2) regional facilities; and (3) regional economic devlepoment and tourism promotion. Below is a breakdown of membership fees within the parameters of the draft 2024 budget (as the solid waste service is supported through tipping fees, the below information removes solid waste service expenditures as part of the membership fee breakdown): Page 3 of 22 1iW Fundy Regional Service Commission Commission de Services Regionaux de Fundy DRAFT 2024 FRSC Budget FRSC Member 2023 Member Fee Proposed 2024 Member Fee City of Saint John $4,252,066 $4,102,705 Fundy Rural District $590,577 $613,717 Town of Grand Bay Westfield $266,760 $277,101 Hampton $443,036 $447,451 Town of Quispamsis $977,028 $1,010,744 Town of Rothesay $717,817 $704,986 Fundy -St. Martins $364,497 $380,750 Total: $7,611,782 $7,537,454 As outlined in the above table, the draft 2024 FRSC budget results in some members projected to require additional membership fees, while others are projected to require a reduction in membership fees. There are a variety of variables that impact this distinction, including: • The percentage of funding originating from each FRSC member for regional economic development and tourism promotion is to change due to the original agreement that formed Envision Saint John. In 2024, the FRSC's financial obligations to Envision Saint John grew by $168,300 to a total of $ 3,002,000, but according to the original agreement that formed Envision Saint John, the City of Saint John's portion is to remain at their 2023 investment level in 2024. • To determine a per member fee, the Commission divides total costs proportionally, according to an equation that evaluates each community's percentage of the region's total tax base and population. To calculate this equation, the Government of New Brunswick distributes an annual breakdown of population and tax base numbers for each community, which each regional service commission is to use in the development of their budget proposals. The 2024 budget is to be developed with 2021 population and 2023 tax base numbers (see table submitted by the Government of New Brunswick in Attachment #4). As the population variable remains consistent with assumptions used for the 2023 budget, it is the tax base numbers that alter proportionality in the draft 2024 FRSC budget. In other words, membership fee impacts occurred for FRSC members that experienced a larger fluctuation in tax base change in 2023. • Additional budget expectations for Community Planning and Building Inspection Services are only applied to Fundy -St. Martins and Fundy Rural District. REPORT General The 2024 FRSC budget development process is one that sought to introduce greater transparency and predictability, including various touchpoints with the FRSC Executive Committee and the FRSC Board of Directors (as outlined in Attachment #3). The FRSC continues to be in a period of transition due to the recent local governance reform program, which introduced six new mandated services to regional service commissions in 2023, and the addition of the "social mandate" for the FRSC in 2024 (which is expected to include homelessness, poverty reduction and mental health). Page 4 of 22 `C:�1 tR Fundy Regional Service Commission Commission de Services Regionaux de Fundy DRAFT 2024 FRSC Budget The draft 2024 FRSC budget (see summary budget document in Attachment #5), which points to a continued immersion into the Commission's new mandate and value that it intends to deliver to its members and the Fundy Region. It is the responsibility of the FRSC administrative team to present a budget for the Board of Directors consideration, and the budget should uphold the highest level of financial due diligence, alignment with the Commission's objectives and mandate, and set a sustainable course for the organization. The FRSC Board of Directors will be asked whether the proposed 2024 FRSC budget responds to the needed financial resources of the Commission, and sufficiently equips the Commission to succeed in the delivery of its new legislative mandate. 2023 FRSC Budget Development The 2023 budget development process for the FRSC was unique, as the development of the budget as well as the authority to approve the budget fell within the responsibility of the Minister of Local Government and Local Governance Reform. Feedback received from Board members during this period highlighted the frustration of the 2023 budget development process. The assumptions within the 2023 FRSC budget attempted to predict the demands on the Commission because of the new mandated services, which included new and added costs, including: • Human resources (role of chief executive officer, executive assistant). • Capital costs for Fundy regional facilities. • Regional economic development and tourism promotion. • New office space. In addition, the 2023 budget also invited a new geographic composition of the FRSC membership, which included the invitation of new members and expanded existing members. Overview of 2024 Budget Development Process The development of the 2024 FRSC was informed by a variety of important inputs, including: • Feedback from FRSC Executive Committee and FRSC Board of Directors. • Approved 2024 budget development criteria. • Fundy Regional Strategy. • 2023 work plan update. • Long-term office solution. • Past budget outcomes, trends, what we learned from 2023, including recent Q2 financial update. • Regional Facilities Committee 2024 budget recommendations. • Capital demands on landfill. • Membership survey results on per diem and meeting expenses. In addition to the above, the budget was developed through input from FRSC employees, who are involved in existing service delivery. The internal budget exercise yielded a large inventory of needs, but after the Page 5 of 22 1IW Fundy Regional Service Commission Commission de Services Regionaux de Fundy DRAFT 2024 FRSC Budget completion of an evaluation of highest impact needs (though the 2024 budget development criteria), the inventory was reduced to those that should be presented in the draft budget included in this report. As indicated previously, on June 5th, 2023, the FRSC Board adopted six criteria to guide the 2024 budget development process. Staff has assembled a table to qualify how the draft 2024 FRSC budget supports the approved criteria: Criteria Qualification Incrementality The FRSC must walk before it runs, and the transition into the new mandated services will take time, including the time needed to demonstrate value and impact. This will remain a challenge for the Commission, as it manages the expectations of partners, stakeholders, and customers. The draft 2024 budget proposes important incremental enhancements, which will equip the Commission in the successful delivery of its new mandates. The changes provide a core level of service, which is commensurate with the expectations of the new legislative mandate, the Fundy Regional Strategy, the work associated with the four new standing committees, among other expectations placed on the Commission. Regional Strategy The FRSC Board of Directors adopted the Fundy Regional Strategy on August 3rd 2023, which outlines a total of 84 actions over the next five years (including 23 actions in 2024). The draft 2024 FRSC budget, and the corresponding 2024 work plan, assumes the delivery of several important deliverables form the Fundy regional Strategy, including, among others: • Introduce a regional sub -committee for local emergency management organization representatives. • Initiate a regional climate mitigation and adaptation strategy. • Pursue an education and awareness campaign to support the Commission's transition. • Further define the Regional Strategy scorecard to ensure adequate targeting and evaluation framework. • Report back to the FRSC Board on needed changes to the four new standing committees after a year of operations. • Develop a regional community development asset map and needs assessment. • Introduce proposed go -forward structure for the Community Development Committee. • Launch a new Dial -A -Ride program. • Build partnership to deliver enhanced cultural awareness, diversity, and inclusion awareness and programing in the Fundy Region. • Pursue Rural plans for Fundy -St. Martins and the Fundy Rural District. Page 6 of 22 Fundy Regional Service Commission Commission de Services Regionaux de Fundy DRAFT 2024 FRSC Budget • Establish a train traffic and safety community committee. • Study landfill gas utilization alternatives. Delivering The draft 2024 FRSC budget builds from the success of strong and valuable service Valuable Service delivery that the Commission has upheld over the past decade. Solid waste, community planning, and building inspection service have had years to mold and refine programing and value to customers, and these two services will be adequately resourced to maintain this trajectory into 2024. For the new mandated services, demonstration of value has already begun with through the engagement process of the Fundy Regional Strategy and the Commission's request for stakeholder and partner guidance on how the FRSC can bring new value to the Fundy Region. The vision, goals, values, and action outlined in the Fundy Regional Strategy ultimately define where the Fundy Region believes the Commission can bring new value, and the most effective method for the FRSC to deliver on new value is to accept this guidance, and in turn, pursue the actions outlines in the Strategy, continue to be guided by the four standing committees and the FRSC Board of Directors. Financial While there are new expenditures identified in the draft 2024 FRSC budget, Capacity deliberate efforts were made to diminish the impact on FRSC members, acknowledging the ongoing financial transition occurring across the Fundy Region due to the local governance reform agenda. If adopted, the draft 2024 budget will yield tremendous value to the Fundy Region, the mandate of the Commission, local government collaboration, among others. The FRSC's access to funding through the Government of New Brunswick has also reduced the burden of the new expenses identified in the 2024 budget. In addition, the draft 2024 FRSC budget will continue to maximize the leverage funds and investments from the Government of New Brunswick, including: • Regional Services Support Fund. • Working NB. • Department of Health.* • Local Governance Reform Implementation Fund.* • Regional Development Corporation.* The Government of New Brunswick has chosen to design the Regional Services Support Fund to regional service commissions by decreasing the available funding to local governments and rural district through the Community Funding and Equalization Grant ("CFEG"). The draft 2024 FRSC budget includes continued calls on the Government of New Brunswick to introduce more sustainable funding for Page 7 of 22 `ff- A Fundy Regional Service Commission Commission de Services Regionaux de Fundy DRAFT 2024 FRSC Budget the local government and rural district landscape, which should include funding supports to the expanded mandates of regional service commissions and continued annual investment into local governments and rural districts. Continuous For the landfill, continuous improvement invites enhancements in our collective Improvement diversion efforts, which does result in a reduction in revenue for the landfill. While the resulting impact is to revisit existing tipping fees, the Commission should maintain its commitment towards waste diversion and environmental sustainability. The draft 2024 FRSC budget invites continued opportunities for landfill related cost mitigation and new revenue streams, including possible cost savings with an approved height EIA and increased electrical revenue from the new gas wells. There are also continuous improvement efforts occurring within the Fundy regional facilities, as there is evidence of deliberate efforts towards operational cost containment, new revenue generation, and sustainability planning in many of the facilities, which has led to a reduction in the rate of increase of costs across the facilities. Accountability The process to develop the 2024 FRSC budget introduced added transparency and and Transparency predictability, which included the approval of budget criteria, responsibilities to the FRSC Executive Committee, integration with the regional group of chief administrative officers, and reporting on preliminary themes to the FRSC Board of Directors. In addition, the budget was developed through the collective expertise of the FRSC administrative team, including the oversight and guidance of the FRSC's Chief Financial Officer. Finally, the legislative requirement of a 45-day review period prior to voting on the FRSC budget is another valuable step in upholding transparency and accountability. * Funds identified with "*" remain tentative and will be integrated into budget assumptions once finalized. Key Highlights of Draft 2024 FRSC Budget Cross Service Area Adiustments There are a variety of cost pressures that are themes across service areas, and adjustments were made in the draft 2024 FRSC budget to respond to these pressures, including: • Integration the assumptions from the recently approved collective agreement with the unionized workforce. • Cost of materials and fuel continues to place pressure on the Commission's operations. • Inflation. Page 8 of 22 Fundy Regional Service Commission (CVE Commission de ServicesDRAFT 2024 FRSC Budget Regionaux de Fundy • Adequate training budgets for new portfolios and service areas. Corporate Costs The corporate section of the draft 2024 FRSC budget experienced the most significant changes, as the Commission is changing how it supports service delivery across departments. Prior to describing these adjustments, there is merit in defining the FRCS starting point for corporate costs. All regional service commissions remain in a "start-up" phase, which is especially transformational for the Fundy Region. For the past decade, the FRSC has primarily maintained a focused attention on the minimum requirements (solid waste management and local planning), while many other commissions across the province have experienced steady administrative growth in expanded and cooperative services during that same period. The 2023 operating budget made some initial adjustments to the corporate budget, which invited a starting point to embark in the management and delivery of the six new mandated services. By early 2023, it was evident that the existing resource allocations to support the new mandated services were insufficient for the demands placed on the FRSC. As a result, an immediate restructuring of existing employee roles and responsibilities was completed to overcome resourcing pressures. In order for the Commission to adequately resource the four new standing committees and begin in the implementation of the adopted Fundy Regional Strategy, there is a need for additional human resources. The adjustments in the draft 2024 FRSC budget for corporate costs include: 1. Redefining "corporate" — Since the creation of the Commission, an overwhelming majority of the budget was focused on the solid waste service, as it played the largest role in supporting regional service delivery. As a result, many of the needed corporate costs to support the Commission have historically been embedded within the solid waste service budget, however as the Commission evolves into new areas, the corporate costs must now support various services areas. For example, communications support was historically a solid waste service budget expenditure, but it would no longer be accurate to categorise the Commission's communications needs as only falling within the solid waste service budget. 2. New office space — The FRSC continues to pursue its long-term office space initiative, and it is expected to be completed prior to 2024, which will invite some added costs. These costs, similar to other "corporate" costs, are distributed across various service area budgets. As the nature of FRSC operations shift, so do the partners, customers, and stakeholders who interact with the Commission. While we will maintain an office presence at Crane Mountain, a new office is required to support staffing and the volume of meetings being hosted by the Commission. The Commission is projected to host over 80 official Board or committee meetings in 2024. 3. Adjusting proportional staff support towards services areas — As part of the 2024 budget development exercise, staff completed a review of existing time commitments across service Page 9 of 22 `Me] CVEFundy Regional Service Commission Commission de Services Regionaux de Fundy DRAFT 2024 FRSC Budget areas. Many FRSC employees divide their time across various budget categories, and as such, their salaries are divided accordingly, which is captured in the corporate budget. 4. Additional resources to "enabling" services— Enabling services include all back -of -office supports that help each service areas achieve its outcomes, including information technology, human resources, finance, and legal. There were no adjustments in cost in the 2023 operating budget for enabling services as a result of the onboarding of the new mandated services to the Commission. The FRSC's "enabling" services are currently delivered through part-time employees or on -call service through third parties. The volume of demands on these enabling services have increased dramatically with the invitation of added mandates to the Commission. Details of the value and impact of these expanded services, which includes ongoing operational demands and strategic projects, are outlined in Attachment#1. 5. Additional human resources — The draft 2024 FRSC budget does propose the introduction of additional budget allocation to introduce new portfolios into the FRSC's establishment. These new portfolios will ensure that there is adequate resourcing to, amongst others: • Support the four new FRSC standing committees. • Support the Commission's ability to deliver on various medium- and long-term plans. • Guide and monitor the implementation of the Fundy Regional Strategy. • Modernize and build efficiency in existing FRSC processes. • Enhance the Commission's outreach, engagement, and relationship across the Fundy Region. Similar to point #2, these new portfolios will support various budget categories, and as such, their salaries are divided accordingly, which is captured in the corporate budget. Details of the value and impact of these new portfolios are outlined in Attachment #2. 6. Outcome of per diem/meeting survey — As a result of a recent surveying exercise with the FRSC Board of Directors, the 2024 budget proposes the following adjustments: • The past chair, the vice chair, and the chair shall receive $100 per FRSC Executive Committee meeting, in addition to existing per diem commitments as outlined in the FRSC Procedural By-law and by FRSC resolution. • Committee chairs of the four existing FRSC standing committees, shall receive $100 per month, in addition to existing per diem commitments as outlined in the FRSC Procedural By-law and by FRSC resolution. • The FRSC shall offer light food and beverage refreshments for its committee and community meetings. Page 10 of 22 MAN Fundy Regional Service Commission (CVE Commission de ServicesDRAFT 2024 FRSC Budget Regionaux de Fundy 7. Consulting needs —The Commission is also in need of enhancements to existing corporate budget allocation to third -party consultants, who will be sought to execute components of future initiatives that cannot be achieved within the skillset of the FRSC team. While the FRSC will gain enhanced capacity and expertise as a result of additional resources outlined previously, the scope of 2024 initiatives require greater technical expertise from consultants. Solid Waste Service As outlined in the Fundy Regional Strategy, the FRSC "aims to transform waste management, promote sustainability, and optimize operations for a more efficient and environmentally conscious future." Consistent with this, to alleviate significantly above inflation cost increases, Crane Mountain Landfill successfully integrated cell construction within its own operations for Cell #9 in 2022 & 2023, a successful first for the Commission resulting in significant cost benefit. However, due to a variety of regulatory changes and continued increasing costs, those savings have been absorbed and the landscape of the solid waste service will be subject to some additional challenges for the 2024 budget. The first indication of this was on the 2023 MCBB application, approved by the Board and supported by the member communities. The application showed a projection of a $135 tip fee for 2024 due to inflation and other external pressures. Some major external factors include: 1. Loss of MSW tonnage (700 MT) from the former Musquash LSD due to new regional boundaries from local government reform. 2. Loss of MSW tonnage (4000 MT) from the City of Saint John due to garbage bag limits imposed on their residents. 3. Loss of MSW tonnage (800 MT) for one year due to local government transition agreements. 4. Insurance increases due to an uncompetitive market in landfill insurance coverage. 5. Increase in cover material aggregate costs due to unbudgeted 50% increase in 2023. 6. Increase in leachate management due to increases in rainfall event severity from climate change. The following tip fee changes are proposed as a reflection of market value: Tipping fees 2023 rate Proposed 2024 rate Member $123/tonne $135/tonne Industrial, commercial, institutional $123/tonne $135/tonne Construction and demolition $30/tonne $35/tonne International ship's waste (After 'dig' charge) $200/tonne $250/tonne Asbestos ($500 minimum) $100/m3 $125/m3 Scrape Service $25 per $35 per Compostable organics $40/tonne $50/tonne Per bag cost $1 $1.50 Page 11 of 22 171 CVEFundy Regional Service Commission Commission de Services Regionaux de Fundy DRAFT 2024 FRSC Budget Risks in 2024 also to be mitigated include the proposed federal regulations on landfill methane emissions which will increase requirements on capital infrastructure for gas recovery. These regulations also propose exclusion of landfills on the carbon credit market limiting options for landfill gas utilization and partnerships, eliminating a possible new revenue stream. Further inflationary pressures and supply chain issues are also a concern entering into 2024. Though not able to be captured in the 2024 budget, Solid Waste Services will be attempting to mitigate overall cost increases over the coming year to influence future budgets for 2025 and beyond. Some opportunities include leveraging cost benefit from recycling operations under the provincial Printed Paper and Packaging (PPP) program in 2024, pursuing increased height approvals through the provincial EIA, securing a local long term aggregate source to eliminate annual market fluctuations, and possible increases in electrical production through new landfill gas well (21 new wells installed in summer 2023) design technology to provide better fuel supply reliability to our generator. Though it is expected there will be benefits realized in 2024 from these initiatives, they cannot be reliably reflected into the 2024 budget document. The Commission's capital budget has historically been focused exclusively on solid waste, which remains the case in the draft 2024 budget. The 2024 budget maintains $550,000 in the operating budget for annual capital maintenance and proposing a total borrowing of $1,043,000. In the event the Commission proceeds with increasing the maximum height of the landfill through the 2023 EIA process, the capital costs associated with Cell #10 would not be required in 2024. Community Planning and Building Inspection Service With the proposed 2024 budget, this service area will now be equipped to continue delivering exceptional customer service for community planning and building inspection service for Fundy -St. Martins and the Fundy Rural District, proceed with the development of rural plans, all while also enhancing the Commission's medium- and long-term planning capabilities that will have impact across all service areas (recognizing that cross -service enhancements will not be charged to this budget). Regional Economic Development and Tourism Promotion Our existing master service agreement with Envision Saint John includes defined annual investments, including $3,002,000 in 2024. The Commission will attempt to continue accessing existing and new Government of New Brunswick funding to support the delivery of regional economic development and tourism promotion for the Fundy Region. ional Soort. Recreation and Cultural Infrastructure (Regional Facilities During the August 3rd FRSC Board meeting, a resolution was adopted to include the recommendations from the Fundy Regional Facilities Committee into the assumptions of the 2024 budget. These recommendations included a 2024 operating investment of $3,003,637 (after accounting for 2022 carry- over) in addition to a 2024 capital budget of $1,528,250. For the 2024 budget, capital costs are approximately $100,000 higher than 2023, while the operating costs for the facilities are approximately $400,000 less than 2023, resulting in an approximate $300,000 savings (before applying corresponding Page 12 of 22 tR Fundy Regional Service Commission Commission de Services Regionaux de Fundy DRAFT 2024 FRSC Budget corporate related costs to the service area). An important theme for 2024 will be to continue monitoring the facilities abilities to contain costs, invite continuous improvement efforts, and pursue new revenue generation opportunities. This oversight is primarily overseen by the administrative leadership and Boards of each respective facility, although there is a need to activate more deliberate oversight of the Saint John Trade and Convention Centre in the coming months. Other Service Areas: • The other services all require more dedicated support and a larger "allocation from corporate services" was included in the draft 2024 budget to ensure the successful delivery of the services. • The Community Development budget will see additional resources to effectively deliver on a more accessible and expanded Dial -A -Ride program in 2024. Regional Services Support Fund and the FRSC As part of the Government of New Brunswick's local governance reform agenda, the Community Funding and Equalization Grant ("CFEG") would experience incremental reductions over five years, which would eventually result in the maintenance of the existing equalization portion of the grant. The corresponding funding from the reductions from the CFEG supports the creation of the Regional Services Support Fund ("RSSF"). The RSSF offers support to regional service commissions in the delivery of their regional strategies, and each commission is required to submit an application to the Government of New Brunswick to access the fund. Each commission is provided a maximum quantity of funding availability for their region, which must meet defined eligibility, including that the funding can only support up to 50% of costs incurred on the commission. In 2023, the FRSC received $957,830 from what is now referred to as the RSSF, and in 2024, the FRSC is eligible to receive $1,474,467. It should be noted that the FRSC's portion to the RSSF is expected to expand by 20% each year for the coming four years (2024-2027), and it is expected that the RSSF will grow to over $3 million upon completion of the four years. It should be noted that the allotment of each regional service commission from the RSSF is determined by a formula entrenched in regulation. Factors such as the tax base and population can have an impact on the annual allotments to each commission. Page 13 of 22 `IFW Fundy Regional Service Commission • Commission de Services Regionaux de Fundy DRAFT 2024 FRSC Budget The draft 2024 FRSC budget proposes accessing the maximum of $1,474,467 from the RSSF, in order to support (at 50% of cost) of the new mandated services as defined through the Fundy Regional Strategy. These funds will support a variety of costs across six budget categories in the draft 2024 FRSC budget, including: Service Area Proposed 2024 RSSF Allocation Corporate $134,981.00 Tourism Promotion $282,654.00 Economic Development $837,254.00 Community Development $123,735.00 Regional Transportation $62,451.50 Public Safety $33,391.50 Total: $1,474,467.00 As part of the recommendations within the report, the FRSC Board is requested to apply to the Government of New Brunswick's RSSF with the assumptions outlined in the draft 2023 FRSC budget. Next Steps With the adoption of the outlined resolutions in this report, the FRSC Board will initiate the 45-day review period for the draft FRSC 2024 budget, which will be circulated to each Member. It is during this period that the FRSC can collect feedback and determine if adjustments are warranted prior to a final vote on the budget (currently scheduled for October 241", 2023). ATTACHMENTS 1.

Our heritage grant program supports homeowners in neutralizing some of the high costs of intervening in heritage buildings, incentivizing the preservation of our incredibly rich heritage and over the past three years, has faced significant challenges due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. As you may be aware, the heritage grant program has encountered challenges stemming from the stipulation that all work must be finalized by the 31st of November in the grant year. Regrettably, the compounding effects of the global shortage of construction materials and skilled workers, exacerbated by COVID-19 restrictions, have significantly impeded numerous projects from meeting this deadline. Consequently, we have observed a decline in the proportion of grants that have been fully disbursed. Despite an annual funding allocation of $80,000 for the program, in 2021, only 68% of the approved funding was distributed, with a slight improvement to 83% in 2022. It is important to note that any unused funding from the grant cannot be carried forward to the following year. This restriction has placed additional strain on our heritage grant program, limiting our ability to support important projects and initiatives aimed at preserving and promoting the rich heritage of our city. However, it is with great pleasure that we inform you of the growing interest in the heritage grant program as the economy gradually recovers. As of the beginning of August 2023, 100% of the allocated funding for the program has already been conditionally approved, and we have reached an additional 38% of applications on the waitlist, resulting in a balance of over $30,000.00. With a budget of only $80,000, the Heritage Grant Program has supported $587,595 in development and improvements in the City's Heritage Conservation areas this year. This clearly illustrates the strong demand for heritage projects and highlights the positive impact they have on our community. Given these circumstances, we kindly request that the City of Saint John Common Council consider the following factors when evaluating our appeal for an additional funding: iRU] 1. The exceptional circumstances caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, which resulted in delays and challenges for numerous heritage projects. 2. The increased interest in our heritage grant program over the years. 3. The inability of many projects to meet the 3 V of November deadline due to the shortage of construction materials and workers. 4. The unavailability of cant' -forward funding, which has limited our ability to support heritage projects in the past. We firmly believe that by providing $40,000 as extra funding this year, we can mitigate the loss of work experienced during the COV ID-19 pandemic and support the completion of important heritage projects in our city. The additional funding will not only contribute to the preservation of our rich cultural heritage but also stimulate economic growth and community development. On behalf of the Heritage Development Board, I would like to express our gratitude for your attention to this matter and your continuous support of our efforts to protect and promote the heritage of Saint John. We remain committed to working collaboratively with the Common Council to ensure the success and sustainability of our city's heritage. Thank you for your time, consideration, and ongoing commitment to our shared heritage. Yours sincerely, amie Watson Chair, Heritage Development Board iPle.] M&C No. 2023-202 Report Date August 30, 2023 Meeting Date September 05, 2023 Service Area General Counsel SUBJECT.
