Your Worship and Councillors:
On behalf of the Board of the Saint John Free Public Library, I am writing to ask that you consider declaring
February 26 to March 4, 2017 Freedom to Read Week in Saint John.
In support of Freedom to Read Week, the Central Library in Market Square will be featuring a display of banned
and challenged books during the month of February. You may be interested to know that the following books
have been challenged in Canada:
Bridge to Terabithia by Katherine Paterson

Smucker
The following declaration has been provided by the national Freedom of Expression Committee and will be used
around the country. It is our hope that you will add the voice of Saint John to this national initiative and make this
proclamation for our city:
FREEDOM TO READ
WHEREAS the right to pursue the truth through free inquiry is essential to democratic decision-making; and
whereas the freedom to read is the essence of free inquiry; and
whereas the freedom to read is under assault from left and right in our society;
therefore be it resolved that Saint John Common Council recognizes, reaffirms, and defends the right of the
citizens of this community individually to decide what he or she will or will not read (the freedom to read);
and further in support of this resolution, this Council, on behalf of the citizens of Saint John, proclaims this
city henceforth a Freedom to Read Zone in which the freedom to read is inviolable.
I encourage you to visit the Freedom to Read website to view lists of banned and challenged materials, articles and

REPORT
BACKGROUND
The approved 2016 & 2017 Water & Sewerage Utility Fund Capital Programs
include projects for the design, construction and construction management for
infrastructure upgrades to the Electrical Substation for the Musquash Water
Pumping Station.
This project includes funding necessary to engage engineering design and
construction management services to complete the following:
♦ Part A — Site Surveys, Preliminary Investigation and Data
Collection
♦ Part B — Preliminary Design, Cost Estimates and Design Report
♦ Part C — Conduct Public Consultation Process
♦ Part D — Detailed Design
♦ Part E — Tender Period Services, Materials Testing & Inspection,

♦ Part F — Construction Management
PURPOSE
The purpose of this report is to make a recommendation for consulting
engineering services for this project.
ANALYSIS
On December 22, 2016 with a comprehensive and detailed scope of work
document developed by staff, a proposal for consulting engineering services was
requested from CBCL Limited. In response to this request, CBCL Limited
submitted a proposal on January 10, 2017. Staff was previously authorized to
conduct direct negotiations with this consultant for engineering services for the
Musquash Water Pumping Station — Electrical Substation Upgrades.
A Review Committee consisting of staff from Materials Management,
Transportation & Environment Services, and Saint John Water was formed to
evaluate the submission.
Each member completed an independent review of the submission and,
subsequently, a Review Committee meeting was held to jointly discuss the
-3 -
information presented in the CBCL Limited proposal. The price contained in the
proposal was also evaluated by the Committee and staff negotiated with CBCL
Limited and settled on an acceptable consultant's fee to submit to Council for
approval.
The submission from CBCL Limited met all of the requirements of the request for
proposal in a manner acceptable to the Committee, with a cost effective bid for
the project.
POLICY — ENGAGEMENT OF ENGINEERING CONSULTANTS
Notwithstanding the City's Procurement Policy for engagement of Professional
Services, Common Council has authorized staff with the approval of M&C 2016-
282 to conduct direct negotiations for the engagement of an engineering
consultant for this project. The costs incurred by the consultant will be paid in
accordance with the terms of the Request For Proposal at the rates submitted
and accepted in the consultants proposal not to exceed the Recommended
Hourly Rates as contained in The Association of Consulting Engineering
Companies — New Brunswick fee guideline. The Construction Management
component of this project fee is based on an estimated 26 week construction
period. The final fee will be calculated based on the actual construction
management period.
SERVICE AND FINANCIAL OUTCOMES
The proposed cost of work from CBCL Limited to provide engineering design and
construction management services for this project is $354,775.00 including HST.
This cost is based on an estimated 26 week construction management period.
An amount of $200,000 is included in the approved 2016 Water & Sewerage
Utility Fund Capital Program for engineering design services for the Musquash
Water Pumping Station — Electrical Substation Upgrades project. The approved
2017 and proposed 2018 Water & Sewerage Utility Fund Capital programs
include funding for the construction and construction management components
of the project.
Engineering fees to cover the costs of design and construction management
generally do not exceed 15-20% of the total overall project cost, depending on
the nature of the project and the engineering services required. This upset fee is
approximately 12.9% of the total overall project cost, which is considered
appropriate for this type of work.

Mayor Lion Darling and Members of Common Council
15 Market Square,
Saint John, NB
E21, L 41.,1.
Dear Mayor Darling and Common Councillors,
I am writing to ask that you and. Common Councillors lend your support for the financial measures for
Canada's historic places included in Private Member's Bill C-323, An Act to Amend the Income Tax Act
(Rehabilitation ofHistoric Property) tabled in The House Of Commons on December 1, 2016.
Bill. C-323 includes the creation of:
- A 20% tax credit on eligible costs for rehabilitation work done to designated historic places
(commercial & owner -occupied residential),
- An accelerated Capital Cost Allowance (25%/50%/25%) for eligible capitalized costs incurred under
the same conditions of the tax credit (commercial only).
These two tax measures would transform the economic fundamentals for renewing historic places, and
would encourage building conservation of every size and type, from landmark cornmercial buildings to
modest homes.
Saint John, is a very old historic city. It has housing stock of hundreds of buildings built before 1917..All
of the owners of these buildings would benefit greatly with passage of this proposed bill.
There are many examples of the significant financial and environmental impact of heritage conservation:
- Studies show building rehabilitation generates upwards of 21% more fobs, including skilled jabs, than
the same investment in new construction,
The Commercial Heritage Properties Incentive Lund (CHPIL), a Canada -wide pilot program (2003 -
2008), was designed to test the benefit of a heritage tax credit. The results were impressive: federal
contributions of $21.5 million supporting 49 projects leveraged over 8 times more in private sector
investment ($177.2 million), and
- Building renewal and re -use capitalizes on materials and energy already invested, reduces
construction and demolition waste, and avoids environmental impact associated with new
development. A recent study shows that it takes from 1.0 to 80 years for a new "green" building to
mare up for the negative climate change impacts of its construction.
As the significant impact of this Bill will be felt in our own community, as well as nationally, I urge you
to support for the measures included in Bill C-323.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
k

Sir,
As a member of Horseshoe League Management Committee Saint John, I take this
opportunity to request you on behalf of all the members that we need a suitable, place where we can
pitch horseshoes during winter months. If we are fortunate enough to get the place in question we
intend to play two days horseshoe and three days washer -toss. Most of the players are passing through
twilight zone, hence it gives them a chance to do exercise and stay active.
At the same time we want to visit most of the schools to motivate students to get them
interested in the game of their choice. it is very alarming situation that the obesity —rate is 27% in Saint
John. if we succeed it will rnake big change in their habits and keep them away from video games or
tweeting. It will give us pleasure that we made a bit difference.

REPORT
BACKGROUND
The approved 2017 Water & Sewerage Utility Fund Capital Program includes
funding for repairs to the 1500mm Pre -stressed Concrete Cylinder Pipe (PCCP)
and Electromagnetic Inspection (EMI) scanning, including the design and
construction management services. The 1500mm diameter and 1350mm
diameter PCCP runs between Spruce Lake and the Irving Pulp and Paper (IPP)
Clear Well on the West side. During an EMI completed five years ago, it became
evident that sections of the 1500mm diameter pipe were distressed. This
project includes replacing one of those sections of pipe and repairing the joints
of another section of pipe. This work must take place when the watermain can
be dewatered so the repairs will take place during the planned Irving Pulp and
Paper shutdown this Spring.
TENDER RESULTS
In accordance with the City of Saint John's Policy for the Procurement of Goods,
Services and Construction, this contract was called by invitation to bid as the
work was valued at less than $100,000 plus HST. Four Contractors were invited
and three Contractors submitted bids.
Tenders were closed on January 24, 2017 with the following results, including
HST:
1. Galbraith Construction Ltd., Saint John, NB $ 55,775.00
2. Dexter Construction Company Limited, Bedford, NS $ 102,350.00
3. Fairville Construction Ltd., Saint John, NB $ 113,275.00
The Engineer's estimate for the work was $94,875, including HST.
ANALYSIS
The tenders were reviewed by staff and all tenders were found to be formal in all
respects. Staff is of the opinion that the low tenderer has the necessary
resources and expertise to perform the work and recommend acceptance of
their tender. Work will occur during an 84 hour window during the IPP
shutdown at the end of April/first of May 2017.
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS
The Contract includes work that is charged against the 2017 Water & Sewerage
Utility Fund Capital Program. Assuming award of the Contract to the low
tenderer, an analysis has been completed which includes the estimated amount
of work that will be performed by the Contractor and Others.

POLICY—TENDERING OF CONSTRUCTION CONTRACTS
The recommendation in this report is made in accordance with the provisions of
Council's policy for the tendering of construction contracts, the City's General
Specifications and the specific project specifications.
SERVICE AND FINANCIAL OUTCOMES
A section of PCCP pipe on the 1500mm diameter raw water transmission main
needs to be repaired along with the joints of another section of 1500mm
diameter PCCP. This work has to happen at a time when the watermain can be
drained. At the end of April/first of May 2017 IPP is planning a shutdown. This
will afford the City the time to complete this project.
This project will be completed within the original approved financial budget.

contained in the proposal was also evaluated by the Committee and staff
negotiated with Dillon Consulting Limited and settled on an acceptable
consultant's fee to submit to Council for approval.
The submission from Dillon Consulting Limited met all of the requirements of the
request for proposal in a manner acceptable to the Committee, with a cost
effective bid for the project.
POLICY— ENGAGEMENT OF ENGINEERING CONSULTANTS
Notwithstanding the City's Procurement Policy for engagement of Professional
Services, Common Council has authorized staff with the approval of M&C 2017-
001 to conduct direct negotiations for the engagement of an engineering
consultant for these projects. The costs incurred by the consultant will be paid
in accordance with the terms of the Request For Proposal at the rates submitted
and accepted in the consultant's proposal not to exceed the Recommended
Hourly Rates as contained in The Association of Consulting Engineering
Companies — New Brunswick fee guideline. The Construction Management
component of this project fee is based on an estimated 20 week construction
period for each project location. The final fee will be calculated based on the
actual construction management period.
SERVICE AND FINANCIAL OUTCOMES
The proposed cost of work from Dillon Consulting Limited to provide engineering
design and construction management services for this project is $647,427.00
including HST. This cost is based on an estimated 20 week construction
management period for each project location.
The approved 2017 Water & Sewerage Utility Fund Capital program includes
funding for the design, construction and construction management components
of the project. Partial funding for each project will come from the Clean Water
Wastewater Fund.
Engineering fees to cover the costs of design and construction management
generally do not exceed 15-20% of the total overall project cost, depending on
the nature of the project and the engineering services required. This upset fee is
approximately 19.6% of the total overall project cost, which is considered
appropriate for this type of work considering there are large environmental
approvals components to these projects as the projects involve the replacement
of two wastewater treatment facilities.

Dear Mr, Mayor Darling,
As a follow-up to our email exchange, I am pleased to enclose an official Canadian
Red Cross Pink Day shirt to help you celebrate with us on February 22, 2101T
Pink Day has a special significance in Atlantic Canada, owing to its creation 10 years
ago in Cambridge, NS. When a student wearing a pink shirt was targeted by bullying,
students Travis Price, and David Shepherd responded by enlisting their peers to wear
pink in a show of support for the bullied student. At school the, next day, the hallways
were a sea of pink. This act of kindness launched a global movement: Pink Day is now
celebrated in more than 20 countries where schools, businesses,, organizations and
government wear pink to demonstrate their commitment to preventing bullying and
promoting kindness.
The tale of Pink Day's creation resonates strongly with those of us who work in
Respect Education, a Canadian Red Cross program focused on preventing violence
and abuse and promoting healthy, respectful relationships. Our Beyond the Hurt
program, implemented in middle and high schools across the City of Saint John, uses
a peer-to-peer delivery model to prevent bullying and promote a positive school
environment. Our Red Cross -certified Youth Facilitators, much like Travis, Price and
David Shepherd, are living proof of the positive impact young leaders can make.
Enclosed, please find additional information about our Beyond the Hurt program.
We thank you for accepting our challenge to tweet a picture of yourself wearing our
Pink Day shirt on February 22, 2017, using the official provincial hashtag #PinkDayNB.
We also invite your colleagues to join the challenge. Enclosed, please find information
you may share with them about how to purchase Pink Day shirts and participate in the
celebration.
If you have any questions or would like additional information on Respect Education
and our work, please don't hesitate to contact me. i can be reached via email at
alison.richarda.redcross,ca or by phone at 506-458-8445, ext. 5.

municipalities selected to welcome the Acadian youth participants, ln fact, more than 1,100 athletes are expected
to converge in June 2020 on the municipality chosen to host the 41't "Finale des Jeux de IAcadie." The numerous
economic, omda[, technical and other spin-off benefits generated by the "Finale des]eux de |'Acadie" make it a
showcase event with immeasurable positive impact onthe communities responsible for hosting it, Astudy ofthe
tourism and economic impact of the "Finale des Jeux de |'Aoadie" has demonstrated that some 27,000 visitors
attend the various sports competitions and generate economic spin-off benefits totalling more than $1.2million
for the host municipality and an additional $4OO,0U0for the host province as a whole. Far beyond this economic
impact' however, the social impact of hosting the games cannot be understated in terms of fostering and
promoting the volunteer culture that develops throughout the community along with the awareness that when
wmwork together, m/ecan achieve anything!

ANALYSIS
Proposal
The City of Saint John owns the subject site and Real Estate Services has initiated the sale of
the property and is actively recruiting market interest in these lands. Any sale of land will be
subject to Council approval. The property is for sale as Common Council has deemed it surplus
as the City of Saint John does not require the site, and the Saint John Arts Centre has
confirmed that it does not require the site for any purpose. The proposed Section 39
amendment is to facilitate the sale and potential future development of the site by rescinding
three Section 39 conditions imposed on the site in conjunction with the February 16, 2009
Municipal Plan Amendment and rezoning for Peel Plaza. These Section 39 conditions have
either been fulfilled or are no longer relevant.
Site and Neighbourhood
The subject site is located in the Uptown area of the City's South Central Peninsula on a
prominent corner at the intersection of Carleton Street and Peel Plaza. The site was identified
by the City as being potentially included in the Peel Plaza development, which was the
comprehensive redevelopment of several sites, to include the police headquarters, law courts, a
multi-storey parking garage, and a public plaza that is associated with the Saint John Arts
Centre. While adjacent to the redeveloped properties, the subject site was not ultimately
included in the redevelopment. The subject site has a historic building, which is currently vacant,
but was recently used as a business office. The remainder of the site, previously used as a
parking area, is vacant with an open grassed area.
Municipal Plan and Zoning
The subject site is designated Primary Centre by the Municipal Plan and it is zoned Uptown
Commercial (CU). The Uptown Commercial (CU) zone allows for a wide variety of commercial
uses appropriate for the Uptown location of the site.
The three Section 39 conditions the proposed amendment would rescind are related to the Peel
Plaza development and are no longer relevant as the subject site was ultimately not included in
that project. In addition, the conditions have already been met, as the project is now complete.
The rationale for the proposed rescinding of the three Section 39 conditions is as follows.
Page 4 of 7
84
City of Saint John 50 Carleton Street January 13, 2017
• The condition requiring the City to provide the public with an opportunity for input on the
final design of the public plaza prior to its construction relates to the public plaza that
was constructed on the adjacent property to the south of the subject site. This public
consultation was conducted and the final design of the plaza reflects the feedback
received. The green space on the subject site was not incorporated in the public plaza;
therefore, this condition is not relevant to the subject site.
• The condition requiring municipal servicing to be provided to the satisfaction of the Chief
City Engineer or his designate is no longer relevant as the municipal servicing for the
redevelopment has already be constructed and approved. In addition, if the site is
developed in the future, Infrastructure Development staff has commented that "any
required extension of municipal services is the full responsibility and cost of the
developer. The developer's engineering consultant must submit detailed engineered
drawings and design brief to the City for review and approval of the City for any
proposed service extensions."
• The condition requiring the development to be in accordance with a detailed drainage
plan has been met and is no longer relevant as this requirement is included in the new
Drainage By-law, which applies to all properties. In addition, if the site is developed in
the future, Infrastructure Development staff has commented that "The developer's
engineering consultant must provide a detailed engineered storm water management
plan and design report indicating how storm water collection and disposal will be
handled. Any upgrades/extensions to any existing municipal infrastructure required to
service any proposed development is the developer's full responsibility and cost to
complete. Detailed engineering plans must be submitted by the developer's engineering
consultant to the City for review and approval of the City prior to determining this."
The proposed Section 39 amendment would facilitate the sale and future development of the
site by removing conditions related to its development that are no longer relevant. The site was
not required by the City of Saint John for the Peel Plaza redevelopment, and the Saint John Arts
Centre has confirmed that it does not wish to use the site, as a result, it has been deemed
surplus and is currently listed for sale. Any potential future development on the site would be
subject to Municipal Plan policies, Zoning By-law requirements, and Infrastructure Development
requirements as outlined above.
Conclusion
Staff support the proposed Section 39 amendment to rescind three conditions, and thereby
facilitate the sale and future development of the subject site. The Section 39 conditions are no
longer relevant as they relate to the Peel Plaza redevelopment and the site was ultimately not
included in that project. In addition, the conditions have already been met, as that project is now
complete. Any future development on the site would be subject to Municipal Plan policies,
Zoning By-law requirements, and Infrastructure Development requirements, which ensure that
development meets community standards.

Sent: January -06-17 1:24 PM
To: Reade, Mark
Subject: Proceed with aplication to ammend municipal plan
Good Afternoon Mr Reade
We have been talking and would like to proceed with the application to ammend the municipal plan as
we had discussed in December. We don't forsee any problems in respect to DOE and getting a permit to put a
culvert in as it has already been done twice on the adjacent lots. Please let me know if there is anything else
you need. When would it go before council and would i be able to or need to attend to attend any meetings
pertaining to it. I know you had mentioned ads in the paper and the time it takes but other than that any info
would be greatly appreciated. As you know it is only our intention to build a home by my father as he is
getting older and it has always been somewhere I love to be. It will not impact infrastructure or in any way be
debtrimental. It would only add to the tax base in a city which is trying to do so. Again i thank you for your
time with this matter and look forward to hearing more from you.
Regards
100
Stephen Faulder
To the Planning Advisory Committee
I Stephen Andrew Faulder am respectfully submitting this application for the subdivision of my
father's property located at 180 Cosy Lake Road (PID # 55005425 ) . It is mine and my wife's intent to
build a home on the divided property. We are requesting to split the lot in two. There would then be
two single family homes an good sized lots with no future subdivision. I do not feel that doing this would
in any way burden existing infrastructure nor will it require any, except for garbage/ compost removal
which I'm more than happy paying the city of Saint John for. I am also happy to increase the city s tax
base and be a resident of the city. I would like to say that my father has had the property since 1993 and
we built the existing house on it shortly thereafter. l have lived and worked In Saint John most of my life
since immigrating here with my parents in 1979 at the age of 5, I'm 42 now. I have been fortunate
enough to be able to stay here. I am proud to say I haven't had to join the bandwagon and go out west
for work. I love the province, the Maritimes and the city of Saint John and it has long been a dream of
mine to build here, by my bad and In Saint John. My wife and I see this as an opportunity to build our
dream and as we both work In the city would love for it to be there. I have also spoken with the
neighbors up and down the street and none of which have any concerns with our plans. it is with that I
formally submit this application for subdivision. I thank you for your time with this matter and I await
your reply.
Respectfully,
Stephen Faulder

Subject: Training for Appointees to City ABCs
Background: Much of the city business, and a significant amount of the city's budget, are managed by
citizens appointed by council. While new councilors receive training and orientation every 4 years, many of
our appointees, while having qualifications and motivation, may not have the skills and knowledge about
governance and Robert's Rules to that would make them most effective.
I believe our staff have the expertise and knowledge to put on an annual training session that would educate
our appointees in their general role inside the organization and provide them with basic training in
governance and how effective meetings run.
Motion:
Appointees of the City of Saint John to Agencies, Boards, and Commissions must attend training on city
governance and Roberts' Rules of Order (with any City of Saint John adaptations) within one year of being
appointed to their position. Current appointees would be grandfathered, but invited to these sessions.
Respectfully Submitted,
(Received via email)

Subject: Zoning Bylaw Standards to address Seasonal Car Shelters
Background:
Currently snow shelters for vehicles and pedestrians can be installed throughout our community without
municipal regulation. While they serve in protecting vehicles and people from inclement weather during the
winter months, they can detract from the aesthetics of our neighbourhoods, among other land -use
considerations, especially when they remain beyond the winter season.
Motion:

RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that Common Council adopt the following resolution:
RESOLVED that the Mayor and Common Clerk be authorized to execute the
attached Memorandum of Understanding between the City and the New
Brunswick Community College.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
This particular MOU is to establish a relationship between the City of Saint John
and New Brunswick Community College. In view of the opportunities that the
Fire Training Centre has presented both in terms of providing a first class training
facility and a platform for revenue generation that leverages the expertise of the
Saint John Fire Department, we have been in discussions with the New
Brunswick Community College (NBCC) respecting mutually beneficial partnership
opportunities.
NBCC has particular expertise and skillsets that are expected to very nicely
complement those of the Saint John Fire Department. In addition to the
excellence that NBCC bring to the table in research and instruction, they also
have particular expertise in understand the training market and identifying third
party funding opportunities and navigating the associated processes.
111
-2 -
The purpose of the attached MOU is to formalize the exploration and viability of
those opportunities and, should such opportunities be identified, it is anticipated
that we would be returning to Common Council at a future date with a further
and more expansive MOU that addresses the particulars of those opportunities,
how revenues would be allocated and the obligations of each party in the
delivery of programming.
PREVIOUS RESOLUTION
N/A
STRATEGIC ALIGNMENT
This MOU is directly aligned to Common Council priorities. This MOU supports
fiscal responsibility in that it will attempt to leverage the NBCC relationship
opportunity to generate revenue and identify alternate sources of funding. This
MOU also supports the fire services efforts to explore training improvements
and enhancements through innovation and by developing partnerships with
community organizations. The development of specialize emergency response
capability is critical to growth and prosperity within the industrial environment.
SERVICE AND FINANCIAL OUTCOMES
The attached MOU could lead to a more robust training environment and as
such help ensure that emergency responders are as competent in acquisition
and maintenance of necessary skills. The attached MOU may also help identify
third party funding that will help support the development of a world class
emergency services training facility. A world class emergency services training
facility could be an effective component of the fire service revenue generation
program.

Exploration of Partnership Opportunities for Training and Research in Fire Fighting
Objective of Agreement
To collaborate on the exploration of opportunities for the development and delivery of
firefighting courses on topics such as flammable fuels, industrial fire brigade, storage tanks,

Both partners recognize the importance of providing world class training experiences, and
being able to market those offerings for their mutual financial benefit. The partnership will rely
on delivery of results, as measured by volume of course offerings, quality of those courses and
the revenues generated from these new activities.
Both partners recognize that the results of the exercise of exploring opportunities of the nature
and variety described above will inform the contents of a subsequent agreement that will

RECOMMENDATION
That Council grant Freedom of the City to the following cadet units:
➢ No. 9 Rodney Sea Cadets, formed 1927
➢ No. 1691 Saint John Army Cadets, formed 1940
➢ No. 161 CK Beveridge Air Cadets, formed 1942
➢ No. 527 Simonds Air Cadets, formed 1950
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The purpose of this report is to recommend that Common Council grant the
Freedom of the City to the four local cadet units and that a ceremony be
arranged in September 2017.
PREVIOUS RESOLUTION
Council adopted the following resolution on July 11, 2016:
"RESOLVED that the Request for Freedom of the City from 161 CK Beveridge Air
Cadets be referred to the City Manager."
REPORT
Common Council received a request from the 161 Squadron, Royal Canadian Air
Cadets, in July 2016 to be granted the Freedom of the City honour. The request
was referred to the City Manager for a report and recommendation. Since that
time, a small working group consisting of the Deputy Mayor, the City's Cultural
Affairs Officer, Harold Wright and Major Kim Allan, the Area Cadet Instructor
Cadre Officer for Southern New Brunswick, has been working on this file.
`§F:3
-2 -
History and Origins
The Freedom of the City is considered the highest honour the City can bestow
upon a person or persons. In Saint John, the honour has been granted to
individuals who have made significant contributions to the City and to groups
and military units with historic ties to the City.
Since 1901, Common Council has bestowed the Freedom of the City to over 170
individuals and/or groups (see Appendix A). Some of the qualities and criteria
used to describe past Freedom of the City recipients are:
• Identified with cultural and educational life in NB
• Contributed to educational development of many of the citizens of NB
• Served Canada with honour and distinction in both peace and war
• Showed great interest and devoted a great deal of time and effort toward
the promotion of the welfare of fellow citizens
• Exemplified the highest standard of good citizenship and community
service throughout life, and set an example in leadership
• Prominently identified with the business community and made significant
contribution to the economic development of Saint John and the
Province of NB
The City's authority to award Freedom of the City is derived from Provincial
legislation. An Act to authorize the Common Council of the City of Saint John to
confer the Freedom of the said City upon any person or persons in certain cases,
(1901) 1 Edw. 7, C. 44, provides:
Whenever the Common Council of the City of Saint John shall, by a unanimous vote
thereof, declare that it is desirable to confer the Freedom of the said City, upon any
person for the purpose of Honourable Distinction, it shall and may be lawful for the said
Council, and it is hereby authorized and empowered so to do.
Freedom of the City for Individuals
The Freedom of the City has been awarded to numerous individuals since 1901.
Some notable recipients are: Charles Gorman (1926); Eleanor Roosevelt (1956);
Philip Oland (1970); K.C. Irving (1984); Fred Ross (1999); J.K., Jack and Arthur
Irving (2012); Dr. Richard Currie (2012)
Traditionally, a ceremony has been held for the Freedom of the City recipient
and a formal dinner/banquet has been arranged. The Mayor and Council attend
the event and a number of guests are invited to honour the recipient.
Mel
-3 -
Freedom of the City for Military Units
The Freedom of the City for military units is traditionally granted to units with
historic ties to the area and it is often accompanied by a celebratory parade
through the city.
It is customary for military recipients who have received the award to exercise
the Freedom of the City by marching through the streets of the City "with flags
flying, fixed bayonets and drums drumming".
The Mayor plays an important ceremonial role in this event by giving greetings to
the military units, inspecting the units and presenting the Freedom of the City
certificates.
Freedom of the City for Cadet Units
It is important to note that the cadet units are not considered military units.
They can be described as civilian organizations supported and funded by a
national civilian organization. Examples of cadet units include: The Navy League
of Canada (1895); the Army Cadet League of Canada (1909-1971), and the Air
Cadet League of Canada (1941).
Although Saint John has never conferred Freedom of the City on a cadet corps, it
has been done in Dieppe, Fredericton, Oromocto, Sussex, and St. Stephen.
The working group for the current Freedom of the City request has
recommended that Council consider honouring the four local cadet units
together rather than honouring only one individual unit. Harold Wright recently
submitted a letter to the City Manager in which he wrote:
In the 90 years since the cadet movement began in Saint John (Sea Cadets 1927), it is
estimated that about 20,000 local young males and females have benefited from the
cadet program. They have contributed to the social, cultural and economic well-being of
Saint John. An appropriate thank you would be to award the cadet units, either
singularly or as a group, with this City's highest civic honour, the Freedom of the City of
Saint John.
Should Council decide to grant Freedom of the City to the four cadet units, it is
proposed that a ceremony would be arranged in September 2017. A large event
could be arranged with the four cadet units, affiliated military units who were
previously awarded Freedom of the City, and the Saint Mary's Band.
It is anticipated that the costs associated with this proposal would be limited to
the printing and framing of the Freedom of the City certificates as well as some
staff time and possible in-kind support from the City. The cadet units would be
responsible for the majority of the planning and execution of the ceremony.
`IWel
-4 -
STRATEGIC ALIGNMENT
The recommendation aligns with the Council priority of a Vibrant City.
SERVICE AND FINANCIAL OUTCOMES
The anticipated cost associated with awarding Freedom of the City to the four
cadet units is approximately $1000. Staff time and some in-kind services from
the City may also be required.

which also have our Freedom! of the City and they could be invited to exercise their

Squadron, RGeneral CAF I have had an informal discussion with the staff of Vance,
the Chief of the Defence Staff, to have him join us on that weekend.
Your Cultural Affairs officer and: I have discussed this a few times to formulate
this request for the cadets. Should Council hon!our these youth with, the Freedom then
perhaps you would appoint a small Committee to organize such a weekend parade.

RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that Council endorse the Procedural By -Law Amendments
attached as appendix "A" and that staff be directed to prepare the amendments
for 1St 2nd and 3rd reading.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
At the January 23, 2017 Committee of the Whole meeting, the City Manager was
directed to report back to Council with suggested Procedural By-law
amendments to address the by-law provisions respecting correspondence from
the public and agenda publishing dates.
The staff recommendations are contained in the draft Procedural By -Law
Amendment attached in Appendix "A" to the report.
PREVIOUS RESOLUTION
The Committee of the Whole adopted the following resolutions on January 23,
2017:
1) RESOLVED that staff be directed to draft an amendment to the
Procedural Bylaw to address the following issues respecting public
correspondence:
• Must be delivered in person, by mail, email or fax
• Be addressed to Council or a Committee
• Be legible
131
-2-
• Include the name and mailing address and telephone number of the
author
• Not contain language which is defamatory, offensive or disrespectful to
anyone
• Personal information and opinion contained in the letter will form part of
the public record unless the author of the communication requests the
removal of his/her personal information
• If in the opinion of the Clerk, a City official should consider any
communication before the Council meeting, the Clerk may:
➢ Forward a copy to the appropriate City official
➢ The City official may then submit the report directly
to Council or Committee in response to the
communication.
2) RESOLVED that staff be directed to draft amendments to the Procedural
Bylaw to address the following issues the City Manager raised:
• The challenge of publishing the Council agenda within the existing bylaw
timeline (Wednesday)
• Preferred options to publish on Thursday or Friday
• Supplemental Agenda considerations
• Concurrent release to Council and the public
REPORT
It is suggested that the proposed new public correspondence provisions in the
Procedural by-law will enhance customer service, Council meeting efficiency and
provide structure and clear guidelines for the public and City staff.
Staff is recommending that the by-law be amended to change the agenda
publishing date to Thursday for Council members and Friday for the public. This
change would allow staff to deliver a more complete and final agenda package
and reduce the need for supplemental agenda items and revisions. In addition,
it will provide the necessary time needed to translate the agenda into French, as
required by the Official Languages Act, prior to the agenda being uploaded to the
city's website.

SELLER'S REPRESENTATION An agency agreement to list a Property for sale exists between an Agent and a Seller. When a
REALTOR', on behalf of the Agent, represents the !Seller, he or she is the SELLER'S AGENT and accordingly must do what is
best for the Selleir of the property, The SELLER'S AGENT is normally called the LISTING AGENT because the seller and the
SELLER'S AGENT have formed a written contract called a listing agreement.
BUYER'S REPRESENTAVON When a REALTOR', on behalf of the Agent, represents the Buyer, he or she is the BUYER'S
AGENT' and his or her primary obligations are to the Buyer. Ideally, this relationship should be confirmed in a written
agreement that specifies the Buyer's obligations, explains the services that the REALTOR' will provade and specifies how
much wall be paid for these services and who will be paying.
DUAL REPRESENTATION When both the Buyer and Seller are represented by the same REALTOR' or by different REALTORS'
licenced with the same Agent, this creates a type of dual representation situation where the REALTOR"s duty of
confidentiality and loyalty to both the Buyer and Seller come into conflict. This places limitations upon the type of
representation that can be provided. This is referred to as DUAL AGENCY. If you find yourself involved un a DUAL AGENCY
relationship, before making or receiving an offer, both you and the other party will be asked to consent in writing to this new
DUAL AGENCY relationship.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
This form does rot create an Agency relationship. Its purpose is to ensure that all parties understand and acknowledge the
types of representation that may occur.
I have read and understood this form and acknowledge that:
