REPORT TO COMMON COUNCIL
MC2012-21
January 26, 2012
His Worship Mayor Ivan Court and
Members of Common Council
Your Worship and Councillors:
SUBJECT Saint John City Market - Lease of Space Stall No. E together
with the Adjacent Bench
BACKGROUND
Ms. Cindy Christie, doing business as The Butcher’s Daughter Gift Shoppe, hopes
to lease approximately three hundred thirty seven square feet (337 ft2) of leasable
area in the Saint John City Market, 47 Charlotte Street, Saint John, New
Brunswick, and described as stall “E”, together with adjacent bench premises
from the City of Saint John. Ms. Christie intends to operate continuously, actively
and diligently for the sole purpose of a gift shop for the sale of local and maritime
fine crafts and art, together with a variety of imported gifts of like quality. The
proposed use is considered appropriate in that it does not conflict with any
existing uses and will maintain similar utilization of the space in relation to the
previous occupant, Beckwith & Co. Limited.
In addition, Ms. Christie has in the past been a bench tenant and is familiar with
the protocols which govern the City Market and tenants. She has submitted all the
necessary documents and information required to enter into a lease agreement
with the City of Saint John.
The proposed Lease (attached) is highlighted by a term of five years with rent that
range from $31.00 per square foot (psf)in year one to $33.00 psf in the fifth year,
increasing year over year to reflect an increase for the consumer price index. The
Gross rent shall be paid in equal monthly installments, monthly in advance. There
is no Landlord’s base building work required prior to the tenant entering the space
and the tenant hopes to be open for February 1st, 2012. The Lease document as
attached has been prepared by the Legal Department and is standard and
consistent with the Leases granted to other tenants in the City Market.
62
MC2012-21 - 2 - January 26, 2012
RECOMMENDATION
Your City Manager recommends:
1. That The City of Saint John enter into a Lease of space for stall “E”
together with adjacent bench in the City Market with Cindy Christie, doing
business as The Butcher’s Daughter Gift Shoppe under the terms and conditions
as set out in the Lease submitted with MC2012-21, and further
2. That the Mayor and Common Clerk be authorized to execute the lease.

2.To explore the perceptions and experiences of potential-riders to:
1.understand why they are not using transit today;
2.identify ways to make transit more accessible, particularly to target stakeholders (low-income residents).
3.To identify innovative approaches, policies and practices that can lead to more sustainable transportation
solutions.
OUTCOMES
1.Archive of survey and focus group responses for future initiatives.
2.Report and recommendations specific to the transportation needs of low-income Saint John residents...
innovative approaches, policies and practices that can lead to more sustainable transportation solutions.
METHODOLOGY
•Best practices research in comparable communities across North America, with a regional focus.
•Targeted business community engagement (i.e. Those employing low-income workforce such as the retail and
service sector, select healthcare and education functions, unskilled labourers, etc.).
•300 resident interviews - target population low-income residents, particularly those in the workforce and
