City of Saint John
Appointment of Arbitrator
Contract 2005-27 - Debly Enterprises Ltd.
Street Reconstruction on McAllister Drive
The City of Saint John entered into Contract 2005-27 with Debly Enterprises Ltd. for
Street Reconstruction work on McAllister Drive (Rothesay A venue to Majors Brook
Drive) in the City of Saint John. The Contract called for the backfilling of the pipe
trenches on McAllister Drive to be done with pit run gravel material but the City
subsequently requested Debly Enterprises Ltd. to instead do the backfilling of the said
trenches using shale rock, geotextile fabric, and geogrid. A dispute arose between the
City and Debly Enterprises Ltd. with respect to the amount to be paid for the substituted
materials. Debly Enterprises Ltd. has given the City notice that it wishes to have the
dispute put before a Board of Arbitration. The arbitration procedure requires each party
to appoint an arbitrator and those persons in turn appoint the third arbitrator.
Debly Enterprises Ltd. has notified the City that it has appointed Michael Whitford as an
arbitrator. The City should now appoint an arbitrator. City staff contacted Mr. Gordon
Mouland, P. Eng., to determine whether or nor he would agree to be appointed as an
arbitrator and he has agreed to do so if the City wishes to appoint him. Mr. Mouland
advised that he and his company have done work for the City and will be doing work in
the near future for Debly Enterprises Ltd. He indicated that he can act impartially with
respect to the arbitration and would treat each party equally and fairly. The solicitor for
Debly Enterprises Ltd. has confirmed that her client does not object to the appointment of
Mr. Mouland as an arbitrator.
The adoption of the attached resolution in Open Session would be in order if Common
Council wishes to appoint Mr. Mouland as an arbitrator with respect to the resolution of
the above dispute.
Yours truly
