Lev6e de la s6ance The City of Saint John November 26, 2015 Mr. Graeme F. Somerville 84 Beach Crescent Saint John, NB E2K 2E4 Dear Mr, Somerville: Subject: Lots South of Vulcan Street (PiDs 00002444 and 55147482) Thank you for your letter dated November 5, 2015 regarding the above noted properties. 1, along with City Staff, have reviewed the letter and provide the following response relating to your proposed ideas for the development of green space on the site. The lands were the former location of the Saint John iron Works and were the location of a boiler house for the former sugar refinery. With the recent adoption of the City's new Municipal Plan and Zoning By -law, these lands are located within the Uptown Primary Centre designation of the Municipal Plan and are Zoned Waterfront Commercial (CW). These areas are envisioned to accommodate mixed -use development such as commercial, community facility, port or residential land uses. Recognizing the strategic value of these lands, the Waterfront Commercial (CW) zoning requires that any development on these lands be the subject of a planning application that is reviewed by the City's Planning Advisory Committee and approved by Common Council. This includes the development of the site as green space. We have reviewed the proposal for development of the green space and other improvements to the site. However, due to the following considerations we cannot support the proposal at this time: • There is no confirmation that archaeological resources exist at this location. Should future development of the property occur, it would respect any Provincial requirements relating to archeological resources on the property. • The City currently has commitments on these lands with a prospective purchaser through an agreement of purchase and sale. P.O. Box 1971 C.P. 1971 Saint John, NB Saint John, N. -B. Canada E2L 41 Canada E2L 41-1 SAINT JOHN www.sainttoQ.ca Page I of 2 Mr. Graeme Somerville 324 Charlotte Street November 26, 2015 • Removal of the asphalt is not permitted. Due to environmental concerns associated with the former use of the site, the asphalt acts as the approved barrier capping the underlying soil. • No funds are proposed in the City's Capital Budget Program related to infrastructure improvements around the periphery of the site. Over the longer term, we understand that there may be potential through Saint John Waterfront Development to develop a lookout at the end of Sydney Street in conjunction with the eventual extension of Harbour Passage through the area. This potential lookout area could incorporate a panel outlining the history of the site. While the development of the site as green space is not supported at this time, City staff are available to review and discuss any additional information that you may find during the course of your research. Sincerely, �Je Trail, y Manager Cc: Jacqueline Hamilton, MURP, MCIP, RPP — Commissioner, Growth and Community Development Bill Edwards, P.Eng, — Commissioner, Transportation and Environment Services 3 Page 2 of 2 •': A Nova 9 2015 84 Beach Crescent, Saint John NB, E2K 2E4 CITY MANAGER November 5, 2015 Mr. Jeff Trail, Referred To c- VJ..d.� City Manager, City of Saint John, OT P. O, Box 1971, Saint John NB. r r' E21, 4L1 re: Lots south of Vulcan Street, PID 0002444 and PID 55147482 Lower Cove Graveyard Dear Mr. Trail, In May and June of this year Common Council approved my request for permission to conduct above ground (ie. electromagnetic and ground penetrating radar) surveys of the above lots in July and August of this year. Both surveys were conducted by Amec Foster Wheeler but, because of the quantity of trash under the surface, neither survey could detect either the presence of grave shafts or stone grave markers. While these findings were disappointing it did put to rest any lingering advice that `we should have done EM and GPR surveys'. However newspaper reports of statements in 1830 by former mayor Robert F. Hazen and in 1903 by then mayor Dr. W. W. White point to the existence of a graveyard in, or more likely covering all of, the two above numbered lots. There is also one indication that the site was used by the French inhabitants as a graveyard long before the arrival of the Loyalists in May of 1783. Furthermore there is evidence that this was the principal place of burial for 21 /2years before the Loyalist Burial Ground was opened in the fall of 1785. Exact records do not exist but there are indications the Loyalist Burial Ground may contain in the vicinity of 12,000 burials and the Lower Cove Graveyard in the vicinity of 10,000 burials. In view of the above statements may I suggest to Mayor Norton and Common Council that the above lots be set aside for development into a green space and suitably marked as to its historic relevance to the early days of Saint John. To do this a small part of the development would be undertaken by the City of Saint John. That, I suggest would be the installation of concrete curbing along the Charlotte, Vulcan and Sydney Street edges of the two lots and a concrete sidewalk alongside the Vulcan Street curbing. The larger part of the development would involve the removal of the chain -link fencing now 10 there as well as removing the asphalt and wild grass presently covering both lots, to a depth sufficient to eliminate the trash lying under the present surfaces. In conversation with A.rnec Foster Wheeler staff this work needs the use of a back -hoe with a blade bucket and the constant presence of an archeologist to guide the back -hoe in its digging. There is no suggestion that graves be excavated. To do this larger part of the restoration may I suggest that Saint John Waterfront Development be asked to undertake this aspect of the project. I have had informal discussion with Mr. Kent McIntyre, general manager of that organization and he is keen on the matter. It is my understanding from discussion with Waterfront Development that there is a plan to extend Harbour Passage around the southern perimeter of the south end. Should Harbour Massage proceed along Vulcan Street the presence of this graveyard may enhance the appeal of Harbour Massage. Maybe, at some time, the site should be declared a Provincial, or National, Historic Site although 1 have done no investigation of this possibility. Should you have any questions I can be reached at 632 -2020. I trust that I shall have the pleasure of hearing from you. Sincerely, f Graeme F. Somerville cc. Councillor Donna Reardon. cc.

Box 1971, C €y,' !-A .NAGER Saint John NB, E21, 4L2 Referred I cs Dear Mr. Train, Subject: Lots South of Vulcan Street (PIDs 00002444 and 55147482) Thank you for your letter of November 26, 2015 in response to mine of November 5'. The latter letter was intended for the Common Council and followed the same addressing format as was used in my letter of May 4, 2015 to Mr. Patrick Woods, your predecessor. In addressing that letter to Mr. Woods I followed the instructions of Councillor Donna Reardon and the letter reached its intended destination, ie: the Common Council. Apparently addressing procedures have change and I was not aware of that. It will be appreciated if you would see that my letter to you of November 5�" is placed before Council. Regarding your statement "Removal of the asphalt is not permitted. Due to environmental concerns associated with the former use of the site ....etc." This suggests that the subsurface has been excavated and examined. It would be appreciated if a copy of this study could be sent to me so that it can be examined by my archeological engineers and soil specialists. Finally, my letter of November 5" does give credible references (namely former mayor Robert F. Hazen (in 1830) and incumbent mayor Dr. W. W. White (in 1903) as to the existence of a graveyard south of Vulcan Street. There is thus no doubt of the existence of a graveyard there and the prospective purchaser should be made aware of this fact by your staff. Sincerely, Graeme F. Somerville cc.

AUTHORIZATION Primary Author Commissioner /Dept. Head City Manager Randall G. Pollock Jacqueline Hamilton I Jeff Trail RECOMMENDATION That Common Council assent to the submitted subdivision plan entitled "Amending Subdivision Plan — Plan to Accompany Lease from Canadian National Railway Company as Manager and Operator of Canadian Government Railways to Tim Donut Limited ", located at 199 Hilyard Street (PID 55090856 and 55090864), with respect to the vesting of the proposed municipal services easement. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The purpose of this report is to seek Common Council's assent to a municipal services easement to protect existing City piped infrastructure. PREVIOUS RESOLUTION There are no previous resolutions related to this matter. STRATEGIC ALIGNMENT It is in the interest of The City of Saint John to obtain easements for the protection and maintenance of municipal services. REPORT The attached plan of subdivision has been submitted that would create Lot 15 -01 (constituting the existing Tim Horton's on Hilyard Street) and Parcel "A" (to be consolidated with the adjacent Hilyard Place property.) This plan would also vest 10 Ma in the City a municipal services easement over Lot 15 -01 in order to protect existing municipal piped infrastructure (sanitary and storm sewer.) The location and necessary easement requirement has been confirmed by the Infrastructure Development division of Growth and Community Development Services. The purpose of this report is to recommend the necessary formal acceptance of the easement by resolution of Common Council. Often the vesting of municipal services easements is considered by Council in a recommendation from the Planning Advisory Committee when dealing with more significant subdivision and development applications where additional approvals are required. However, in this case there are no other approvals that require the consideration of the Committee, and the Community Planning Act does not require the Committee's involvement when only dealing with easements. The vesting of the proposed municipal services easement is supported by Infrastructure Development. Therefore Council's assent to the attached subdivision plan with respect to the proposed municipal services easement is recommended. SERVICE AND FINANCIAL OUTCOMES Not applicable.

AUTHORIZATION Primary Author Commissioner /Dept. Head City Manager Trevor Gamblin Kevin Fudge Jeff Trail RECOMMENDATION As provided in M &C 2015 -251, the City Manager recommends: 1) That Common Council reallocate surplus capital funds totalling $94,000 to fund the cost associated with the City Market Head Tower — Design Services for Proposed Renovations; and 2) That Common Council approve that the design work be based on moving select City departments /divisions into the City Market Head Tower. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The purpose of this report is to seek Common Council's approval to reallocate surplus funds previously approved in the 2014 (carry -over) and 2015 capital budgets, which have yet to be expended, to cover costs associated with the design fees for the Proposed Renovations to the City Market Head Tower. PREVIOUS RESOLUTION At a meeting of the Common Council held on December 22, 2014, the following resolution was adopted: "RESOLVED that as recommended by the City Manager in the submitted report M &C 2014 -233: Saint John City Market Head Tower — Design Consulting Services for Proposed Renovations — Award of Contract: 1) That Common Council award the Design Consulting Services for Proposed Renovations to the City Market Head Tower to the low 19 Spa bidder, Murdock and Boyd Architects, for the contract price of $154,000 plus HST; and 2) That the Mayor and Common Clerk be authorized to execute the necessary documents." STRATEGIC ALIGNMENT The City Market has been identified as a high priority by Common Council. The City Market Head Tower — Design Services for Proposed Renovations has previously been approved by Common Council, but funds are not currently allocated for the work. With the impending funding from Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency (ACOA) and the Regional Development Corporation (RDC), for the revitalization of the City Market, including the Head Tower, and the timelines associated with the work, it is imperative that design work start as soon as possible. ►:74101a9 In the 2014 capital budget, $270,000 was allocated to the Architectural and Engineering work that would be required for the rehabilitation of the City Market Head Tower. This funding was subsequently carried over to 2015, and was to include a provision for the partial demolition of the interior finishes to reveal representative portions of the structure to allow for "as- built" conditions to be verified prior to the commencement of design work. In spring of 2015, Facility Management staff and the Architectural and Engineering team looked at the cost - benefit of completing a wholesale demolition of the interior finishes in lieu of only a partial, representative sample, which was originally planned. It became apparent that a wholesale demolition of the interior finishes would give a better picture of the "as- built" conditions for the Architects and Engineers, revealing all concealed structural components. This would improve the accuracy of the design documents and potentially minimize unforeseen, extra costs during construction. More specifically, spending the extra money now to complete the wholesale demolition will save us money during the construction phase of the project. In addition, the demolition phase will soon be completed, thus reducing the overall construction cost and schedule at the time of the rebuild. Further to the above, approximately $175,000 of the original budget of $270,000 has been expended to date on the demolition work, which leaves $95,000 remaining to be put toward the actual design work. 20 am As can be seen in the table below, two additional 2015 capital projects each have a surplus after the work was completed and /or cancelled. Project Description Original Budget Expended to Date Surplus Demolition of Reversing Falls Restaurant $90,000 $22,000 $68,000 Overhead Door Replacements at Various Fire Stations $52,000 $26,000 $26,000 Total Surplus $94,000 It is recommended that the surplus associated with these two projects ($94,000) be combined with the remaining $95,000 originally budgeted for the design work to fund the Architectural and Engineering work that is required for the rehabilitation of the City Market Head Tower. The combined total of these sources of funding is $189,000. As provided by the resolution noted above, the design work was previously awarded to Murdock and Boyd Architects for a contract price of $154,000, which totals $174,020 including HST. Factoring in the HST rebate, the cost for the design work is $159,280.36. Staff recommends that the approximate $20,000 difference between the design cost ($159,280.36) and the combined surplus funds ($189,000) be used as a design contingency, which may be required once the demolition of the interior finishes reveals the existing structural conditions of the Head Tower. SERVICE AND FINANCIAL OUTCOMES As previously mentioned, the total cost of the City Market Head Tower — Design Services for Proposed Renovations is $159,280.36 factoring in the HST and HST rebate. City staff recommends that the remaining /surplus capital from previously approved 2014 (carry -over) and 2015 capital budgets for various projects (totalling $189,000) be reallocated to fund this project, which will include a design contingency allowance of approximately $20,000 including HST. The design work will be based on moving select City departments /divisions into the City Market Head Tower, thus, reducing the "footprint" of leased space required in the future.

AUTHORIZATION Primary Author City Solicitor City Manager John L. Nugent John L. Nugent Jeff Trail RECOMMENDATION That pursuant to section 4 of 1877 (15t Session) Statutes of New Brunswick, Chapter 8, the building at 261 -267 Crown Street currently encroaching upon the said Crown Street be permitted to continue encroaching "until such ... building be destroyed or materially damaged by fire, or shall become dilapidated or out of repair ...." EXECUTIVE SUMMARY A request was received on behalf of the owners of 261 -267 Crown Street to accommodate the encroachment of their building upon Crown Street, a public street. Evidence gathered indicates that the current building existed on site in 1875 and that the site was not affected by the Great Fire 1877. That being the case, Council may adopt a resolution permitting the encroachment. PREVIOUS RESOLUTION N/A STRATEGIC ALIGNMENT N/A REPORT This department received a request from Richard F. McPhee, solicitor for the owners of 261 -267 Crown Street seeking relief as his clients' building encroaches 22 -2- upon the Crown Street right -of -way. In the usual course the remedy is to request that Common Council advertise its intention to stop up and close that portion of Crown Street encroached upon, and if the street is stopped up and closed, to grant an easement "until such building be destroyed or materially damaged by fire, whereupon such easement and all rights incidental thereto shall cease ". However, in this instance, as 261 -267 Crown Street was not within the area burned during the Great Fire of 1877, if the owners can conclusively demonstrate that the building was extant at the time of the Great Fire then they could avail themselves of section 4 of 1877 (15t Session) Statutes of New Brunswick, Chapter 8: "... and provided also, that in case any dwelling house, storehouse or other building shall be standing and being on any such street or upon and over the sideline of any such street at the time of the passing of this Act, (5 Sept. 1877) in that part of the City of Saint John not within the burnt district in the third Section of this Act mentioned, it shall not be required that the same should be forthwith removed, but the same may be permitted by the Common Council of the said City to be continued until such dwelling house, storehouse or other building be destroyed or materially damaged by fire, or shall become dilapidated or out of repair, ..." The owners have provided information to confirm that a building of similar size and configuration to the current building was extant in 1875. The historic records do not allow a precise calculation of the dimensions of the pre -1877 building, but it does seem that it is the building currently on the site in question. The cinder -block foundation wall located along Crown Street frontage is of more recent age, replacing part of the old stone foundation still found at the sides and rear of the building. The cinder -block portion has been confirmed by City staff to be a replacement of part of the original stone foundation. That being the case, a resolution of Common Council will provide sufficient remedy.

Brian Moreau and Tim McCluskey, the applicants, appeared before the Committee and spoke in favour of staff recommendation. The Committee asked the applicants if there would be any land abutting the lake that would include public access. Mr. McCluskey responded that there is no land on the subject side of the lake that is currently publicly owned, but that the applicants have included a small walking path that overlooks the lake. Mr. McCluskey added that the original intention was to make this path publicly accessible; however, residents of the surrounding neighbourhood advised that the path should be deeded and only granted access to residents of the area due to fears that the space will be misused. The Committee asked the applicants how they intended to ensure that the runoff from the proposed Treadwell Village Subdivision would not negatively impact the water quality of the lake. The applicants responded that they intend on preserving a portion of the forested areas of the properties by way of deed to ensure that natural filtration systems remain intact. The Committee asked the applicants what, if anything, were they intending on doing to preserve any existing unmapped wetland areas that may be disturbed by the build out of the proposed subdivision. Mr. Moreau stated that he was not aware of any unmapped wetlands, but would take precautions to ensure they are sustainably handled if they encounter any wetland areas. Page 1 of 2 66 Brian Moreau & Tim McCluskey Ash Street & Aspen Street December 9, 2015 The applicants added that they believe the proposed development of Treadwell Village Subdivision is in keeping with the direction established by PlanSJ, and that the build out of this community will help support the local school. No other persons appeared before the Committee regarding the application. Two letters were received expressing concern with the proposed subdivision. After considering the applicants' statements, the letters received and the attached report, the Committee approved the requested variances, and recommended that Council approve staff recommendation. RECOMMENDATION: 1. That Common Council assent to one or more subdivision plans, in one or more phases, in general accordance with the submitted Treadwell Village Subdivision tentative plan with respect to the vesting of the proposed public streets and future street. 2. That Common Council authorize the acceptance of any necessary municipal drainage easements. 3. That Common Council authorize the acceptance of money -in -lieu of the required land for public purposes (LPP). 4. That Common Council authorize the preparation and execution of one or more City /Developer Subdivision Agreements to ensure provision of the required work and facilities, including detailed site and drainage plans for the approval of the Chief City Engineer.

In addition, the Subdivision By -law authorizes the Committee to approve the names of new streets in a subdivision. The Act also authorizes the Planning Advisory Committee to grant reasonable variances from the requirements of the Subdivision Page 1 of 10 68 Tim McCluskey & Brian Moreau Treadwell Village Subdivision (200 Ash Street) December 4, 2015 By -law and Zoning By -law. The Committee can impose conditions. SUMMARY The applicants have submitted a proposal to subdivide six large parcels in the Treadwell Lake area of the City in order to facilitate the future development of approximately 44 residential lots. The lot sizes range from 5,350 square metres to 1.41 hectares, with the majority of the lot sizes being less than 6,000 square metres. Four of the proposed 44 lots, if approved, will abut Treadwell Lake. The proposed "Treadwell Village Subdivision" includes the development of "Water Lily Way ", which is a long rural road that extends from a proposed extension of Aspen Street to approximately 115 metres from Treadwell Lake at its nearest point. The proposed subdivision also includes five cul -de -sacs, two of which are short cul -de -sacs with the proposed names of "Wood Glade Court" and "Forest Glen Court ". Each of these cul -de -sacs, including the cul -de- sac at the northern terminus of Water Lily Way, contains four proposed lots. The subject area is located in the Rural Settlement Area land use designation of the City's Municipal Plan. The development of low density unserviced residential lots within this land use designation is in keeping with the direction of the Plan. Treadwell Lake is one of three Rural Settlement Areas identified in the Plan, which are areas intended to capture a small amount of residential development over the course of the 25 year lifespan of the Plan. The growth that occurs in these rural areas of the City is meant to help preserve the surrounding historical neighbourhoods and complement the existing character of the area. The proposed development includes several variances from the Subdivision By -law, as well as a variance from the Zoning By -law. These can be supported as they are minor in nature and have no apparent negative impacts on the surrounding community. RECOMMENDATION 1. That Common Council assent to one or more subdivision plans, in one or more phases, in general accordance with the submitted Treadwell Village Subdivision tentative plan with respect to the vesting of the proposed public streets and future street. 2. That Common Council authorize the acceptance of any necessary municipal drainage easements. 3. That Common Council authorize the acceptance of money -in -lieu of the required land for public purposes (LPP). Page 2 of 10 69 Tim McCluskey & Brian Moreau Treadwell Village Subdivision (200 Ash Street) December 4, 2015 4. That Common Council authorize the preparation and execution of one or more City /Developer Subdivision Agreements to ensure provision of the required work and facilities, including detailed site and drainage plans for the approval of the Chief City Engineer. 5. That the Planning Advisory Committee grant the following variances from the requirements of the Subdivision By -law that would: a. permit Lots 4, 5, 6 and 7 to abut the shore of Treadwell Lake, whereas the Subdivision By -law requires a street or Land for Public Purposes along the shoreline; b. reduce the minimum right -of -way width for the proposed extensions of Ash Street and Aspen Street, between their existing terminus and the intersection of Water Lily Way, to approximately 20.12 metres, whereas the Subdivision By -law requires a minimum width of 23.1 metres; c. permit the intersection of Ash Street and Water Lily Way and the intersection of Aspen Street and Water Lily Way to be four -way intersections, whereas the Subdivision By -law requires a T- intersection; d. permit the proposed cul -de -sac at the end of Ash Street to be constructed in the shape of a "P" rather than symmetrical about the centreline or "reverse -P "; and, e. increase the maximum length for a cul -de -sac to approximately 400 metres where Water Lily Way extends south of Ash Street, and to approximately 121 metres where Ash Street extends eastward past Water Lily Way, whereas the Subdivision By -law permits a maximum length of 105 metres. 6. That approval of the above variances be subject to the following conditions: a. The subdivision be developed in accordance with the Public Health Act and the On -site Sewage Disposal System Regulation; b. The subdivision be developed in accordance with the Clean Water Act and the Water Well Regulation; and, c. That a report, prepared by an engineer or geoscientist, be submitted prior to approval of the final subdivision plan that: i. Demonstrates the sustainability of the water supply, the acceptability of the anticipated water quantity and quality, and negligibility of potential impact on existing water users; and, ii. Demonstrates the suitability of the soils of the land to accommodate the anticipated on -site sewage disposal systems. 7. That the Planning Advisory Committee grant a variance from the requirements of the Zoning By -law that would reduce the required frontage of proposed Lots 1, 4, 5, 21, 22, 23, 28, 29, 39 and 40 to be a minimum of between approximately 30.25 metres and 58.28 metres, as generally illustrated on the submitted site plan, whereas the Zoning By- law requires a minimum frontage of 60 metres. Page 3 of 10 70 Tim McCluskey & Brian Moreau Treadwell Village Subdivision (200 Ash Street) December 4, 2015 8. That the Planning Advisory Committee approve "Water Lily Way ", "Wood Glade Court" and "Forest Glen Court" as street names for the proposed subdivision. DECISION HISTORY Our files indicate that there is no development history for the subject properties. ANALYSIS Proposal The applicants propose to develop a rural residential subdivision, in one or more phases, consisting of approximately 44 unserviced lots. The subject site is zoned Rural Settlement Residential (RS), and is located in the Treadwell Lake neighbourhood in East Saint John. The subject site currently consists of six separate PIDs (excluding the future right -of -way), totaling approximately 32 hectares in area. The proposed "Treadwell Village Subdivision ", if approved, will be accessed by Ash Street in the south - eastern portion of the site, and by Aspen Street in the north- western portion of the site (see attached tentative subdivision plan). The proposed subdivision includes five cul -de -sacs at various locations in the development. There are two cul -de -sacs that extend off of the proposed "Water Lily Way ", which optimises the use of the land in the midway section of the subdivision by providing access to four additional lots. The termination point of Water Lily Way in the northern part of the development also ends in a cul -de -sac, which is abutted by four proposed lots. The two cul -de -sacs in the southern portion of the site are not blocked off by proposed lots as these roads are intended to be extended at some point in the future to facilitate the continued development of the Treadwell Lake Rural Settlement Area. The tentative subdivision plan includes an approximate 2,205 square metre private access (walkway) that extends from the eastern portion of the proposed new road, and continues through the forested area to the edge of the property where it abuts Treadwell Lake. The applicant has indicated that this is a feature of the proposed Treadwell Village Subdivision that would be accessible to the residents of the neighbourhood to use as a scenic walking path, offering a shared lookout over the lake. The City's Infrastructure Development Service has indicated that it will be the responsibility of the developer to ensure that the necessary agreements and /or easements are in place for the residents of the neighbourhood to utilise the private access. The City will not be responsible for the design, construction or maintenance of this site feature. The tentative subdivision plan also includes a five -metre drainage easement illustrated along the eastern property line of Lot 5. The drainage easement is a necessary feature of the proposed subdivision to ensure water runoff is sustainably managed and does not negatively impact any individual parcel. Page 4 of 10 71 Tim McCluskey & Brian Moreau Treadwell Village Subdivision (200 Ash Street) December 4, 2015 Site and Neighbourhood The subject site is located in the rural part of East Saint John, approximately 700 metres north of the Saint John Airport. The subject site is comprised of six long, narrow parcels that have a total area of approximately 32 hectares. The proposed subdivision is bordered by Treadwell Lake in the south - eastern portion area of the site, a large forested area to the north, and approximately 12 single -unit dwellings abutting the western side of the site along Aspen Street. The subject site is a large undeveloped area that varies between approximately 100 and 135 metres above sea level. The area subject to the current subdivision application is currently accessed by Aspen Street to the north and Ash Street to the south. The developed area to the west and south of the site is characterised by low density residential land uses, as well as Loch Lomond Elementary School located at the corner of Evergreen Avenue and Loch Lomond Road. Municipal Plan The subject site is primarily located in the Rural Settlement Area land use designation on Schedule B of the City's Municipal Plan. (The portion of the site immediately adjacent to Treadwell Lake is designated Park and Natural Areas.) The Rural Settlement Area land use designation is designed to recognise historic rural communities in the east side and west side of the City. The Plan identifies three rural communities as part of the Rural Settlement Areas, which includes Martinon to Ketepec, Lorneville and Treadwell Lake. The majority of these neighbourhoods were originally built as cottage areas, but have become predominantly year- round residences in recent decades. The Municipal Plan targets approximately 95% of residential growth over the next 20 years to be located within the Primary Development Area, and approximately 5% of new residential growth to be directed toward the Rural Settlement Areas. Growth in these latter areas is intended to be low density residential development that will complement the character of the existing communities. The modest amount of growth targeted for the Rural Settlement Areas is intended "to support their continued vitality and to maximize existing investments in community infrastructure ". New development is meant to be compatible with the surrounding community, and leverage existing public investments, including schools, parks, community centres, and municipal infrastructure. The development of new roads in the rural areas of the City is generally not encouraged by the Municipal Plan. However, Policy LU -93 states that Council shall "discourage new residential roads in the Rural Areas except in areas designated Rural Settlement Area ". The proposed development includes one long rural road with the proposed name "Water Lily Way ", as well as two proposed cul -de -sacs: "Forest Glen Court" and "Wood Glade Court" and extensions of Ash and Aspen Streets. Page 5 of 10 72 Tim McCluskey & Brian Moreau Treadwell Village Subdivision (200 Ash Street) December 4, 2015 The applicants have indicated that the southern portion of the proposed subdivision will be developed as part of the first phase of a multi - phased project. As such, the proposed extension of Ash Street, as illustrated on the tentative subdivision plan, will occur as part of "Phase One ". The applicants have also proposed an extension to Aspen Street, which is proposed to vest as a "Future Street" beyond Water Lily Way, in order to provide access for future development. The build out of the northern part of the subdivision, including the extension of Aspen Street, is expected to occur in conjunction with later phases. Construction of the future street will be the responsibility of the developer of the adjacent lands to the east of the subject site at the time that area is subdivided and developed. Variances The proposed Treadwell Village Subdivision requires a variance from the standards of the Zoning By -law to reduce the minimum required frontage of several lots to range between approximately 30.25 metres and 58.28 metres, as illustrated on the attached tentative subdivision plan, whereas the By -law requires a minimum of 60 metres,. The majority of the lots that require a reduction to the minimum required frontage are located in the five cul -de -sacs. When the frontage of these lots is measured from the required setback point of ten metres, which was the standard under the previous By -law, the frontage is much closer to (or greater than) 60 metres. Lot 4 and Lot 5 in the southern portion of the proposed subdivision illustrate a proposed frontage of 46.15 metres and 49.51 metres respectively. Although the frontage of these lots represents an approximate 20% reduction in the required minimum frontage, both of these lots are large and have adequate area to preserve the character of a rural subdivision. The issue of smaller frontages for lots on cul -de -sacs has been identified to be addressed in an upcoming "housekeeping" amendment /update of the new Zoning By -law. Subdivision In addition to the variance required from the standards of the Zoning By -law, the proposed Treadwell Village Subdivision requires the following variances from the City's Subdivision By- law: 1. To permit four of the proposed lots to abut a lake, whereas the Subdivision By -law requires a street or Land for Public Purposes along the shoreline. 2. To create two four -way intersections, whereas the Subdivision By -law permits only T- intersections. 3. To allow the proposed "P "- shaped cul -de -sac turnaround at the end of Ash Street, whereas the Subdivision By -law requires a cul -de -sac to be symmetrical about the centreline or "reverse -P ". 4. To increase the maximum length for a cul -de -sac to approximately 400 metres where Water Lily Way extends south of Ash Street, and to approximately 121 metres where Ash Street extends eastward past Water Lily Way, whereas the Subdivision By -law permits a maximum of 105 metres; and, 5. To reduce the required width of a residential street to approximately 20.12 metres, whereas the Subdivision By -law requires a minimum width of 23.1 metres. Page 6 of 10 73 Tim McCluskey & Brian Moreau Treadwell Village Subdivision (200 Ash Street) December 4, 2015 The City is currently undergoing the process of updating the existing Subdivision By -law, which has been in place for over 30 years. The proposed new Subdivision By -law does not include the requirement for T- intersections, nor does it preclude a lot from abutting a shoreline. As such, the first two variances mentioned above can be supported. The third and fourth variances speak to the need for traffic to flow safely through a cul -de -sac, which can be achieved through By -law policies that regulate the design and length of the cul -de -sac. A cul -de -sac with the shape of a backwards 'P' allows vehicles to follow the natural flow of traffic as they turn through the cul -de- sac in a safe manner. Creating a maximum length of the cul -de -sac is another mechanism to help limit traffic speed and increase safety. However, a cul -de -sac designed in the shape of a `P' as proposed does not necessarily produce an unsafe environment. A safe turning radius is provided in the proposed design. The applicant does not own the adjacent land, and is therefore incapable of constructing a backwards `P'- shaped or symmetrical turnaround area without moving the proposed extension of Ash Street to the south, which is not recommended. In addition, with only one lot with frontage on this portion of the proposed extension to Ash Street, it is anticipated that minimal traffic will occur in this area. Finally, the applicants are seeking a variance to reduce the required width of a rural road to approximately 20.12 metres, whereas the Subdivision By -law requires a minimum width of 23.1 metres. The proposed variance is intended for the extended lengths of Aspen Street and Ash Street prior to the intersections with Water Lily Way. The applicants are proposing to construct the extension of Aspen Street and Ash Street with the same width that the existing streets currently have, but will widen the right -of -ways after the intersections to ensure the By -law standards are met. Approval of the proposed variances is recommended, subject to several conditions that relate to the need to develop the subdivision in accordance with the Public Health Act, the On -site Sewage Disposal System Regulation, the Clean Water Act, and the Water Well Regulation. These Provincially legislated controls are designed to maintain a high level of public safety, and should be adhered to through every step of the development process. In addition, a condition requiring a report from a geoscientist or an engineer that demonstrates the suitability and sustainability of the soil and water supply in the subject area is also recommended, as this will be a requirement under the new Subdivision By -law. Land for Public Purposes (LPP) As a prior condition of approval for a proposed subdivision, the Subdivision By -law requires 10% of the area of a proposed subdivision in the rural areas of the City to be set aside as "Land for Public Purposes" (LPP). The current applicant is proposing to submit money -in -lieu of LPP as this area of the City includes the Loch Lomond School, which has an existing playground that the community would have access to. In addition, the large lots sizes of the proposed Page 7 of 10 74 Tim McCluskey & Brian Moreau Treadwell Village Subdivision (200 Ash Street) December 4, 2015 subdivision allow for onsite leisure spaces, which results in less need to create new public spaces to meet this need. The City's recreational master plan, "PlaySX, provides Council the direction to consider money - in -lieu of LPP when possible as the City is currently well served with the existing inventory of public parks and playgrounds. The Plan suggests that the quality of green spaces is more important than the quantity. Therefore, money -in -lieu of LPP can be supported. Street Names In addition to the variances discussed above, the Treadwell Village Subdivision requires PAC approval for "Water Lily Way" as a proposed new street name for the main street of the subdivision, as well as "Forest Glen Court" and "Wood Glade Court ", which are short cul -de- sacs off Water Lily Way. City staff have indicated that these names meet the NB911 guidelines and are acceptable. Conclusion The applicants are seeking to subdivide six large lots on the City's east side to facilitate the development of approximately 44 unserviced rural lots. The subject site is located in the Treadwell Lake Rural Settlement Area on Schedule B of the City's Municipal Plan. This land use designation recognises the long existing neighbourhoods in the City's rural areas, and allows for a modest amount of growth over the course of the current Municipal Plan. Low density residential development in these areas is meant to preserve the vitality of these communities, and complement the existing character. The proposed subdivision requires several variances from the standards of the Subdivision By- law, as well as a variance from the zoning By -law. These variances can be supported as they have no apparent negative repercussions on the surrounding community. Approval for the proposed subdivision is recommended, subject to the conditions outlined in the report. The recommendation provides for Common Council's assent to the plan with respect to the internal street layout, as well as Council's authorization of the required municipal drainage easement, acceptance of money in lieu of LPP, and authorization of the necessary City /developer subdivision agreement(s). ALTERNATIVES AND OTHER CONSIDERATIONS No other alternate considerations are proposed for this application.

Firstly, environmental. This area contains portions that are low and boggy. Will you be adding more flood problems? This area stores water — why pave over more land? 44 more septic tanks in the Loch Lomond watershed does not seem like a good idea. Secondly, monetary. Why was all the time and money put into plan SJ if it is to be ignored and further development in the hinterland of the city to be considered? I believe there is plenty of vacant land closer to the city core. Thirdly, president has been set. Did you not already turn down a nearby subdivision on Loch Lomond Road in the recent past? Fourthly, infrastructure. The streets in the old part of the neighborhood are far too narrow to support any further traffic. In this past winter we went for months not being able to pass two cars on the streets. You should drive down Evergreen, the old part of Hemlock, and the old part of Ash before you consider adding more cars to this neighborhood. Loch Lomond Road is far too busy, narrow, winding and poorly maintained. Rush hour traffic often moves at a snail's pace when any moisture hits the pavement. A 15 minute drive can turn to a 45 minute crawl to work. Into this you want to add another 44, 88 or 132 cars? Finally, school. Loch Lomond Elementary school may be seen as a selling point to further development in this area. However, the truth is that the school is full to the brim with children bussed in from further outside the city. No room exists for future families within this neighborhood. Children of families who would potentially purchase lots in this area face the possibility of being bussed further into the city to attend other empty schools. Any one of these reasons should be enough to stop this development. But all five together must make you pause to investigate further before granting this application. I hope you come to the obvious conclusion that this application should be denied. Randy and Paula Moore :. Lockhart, Lynda From: External - Planning Sent: December -04 -15 8:35 AM To: Kliffer, Jody Cc: Lockhart, Lynda Subject: FW: Aspen Street and Ash Street - Addition to existing subdivision From: John Mac [ mailto :johnmacdonaid63Cabamail.com] Sent: December -04 -15 8:00 AM To: External - Planning Subject: Aspen Street and Ash Street - Addition to existing subdivision Dear Sirs /Madams, With growing concern for the health of our existing lakes and waterways, do our city planners really think that this proposal is a good idea? With no sewerage system to service the Loch Lomond Lakes area, this proposed subdivision will flush much grey water into the ground near Treadwell /LochLomond Lakes - a major water source for the city. Surely there are large parcels of land closer to the city and within piping distance of Saint John's Brand New sewerage control system! This is one reason we oppose this sub- division plan. Our second concern is access to the area. There are only two streets exiting to Loch Lomond Road.Lakeside Drive 8s Evergreen Ave.To enter or exit from Lakeside Drive with the increasing traffic8vspeed along LL Road, along with poor visibility because of a curve/ dip at this junction, is almost suicidal. That leaves Evergreen Ave, a street designed and built to service some homes but mostly cottages built in the mid nineteen hundreds.These narrow streets were never built or upgraded to accommodate the traffic created by the 1 87 existing homes,let alone a newly proposed sub - division. LOCH LOMOND ELEMENTARY School is at the entrance of Evergreen Ave.If you would like to see traffic snarls and confusion, drop by some morning between 7:30 - 9:00 AM. and observe buses coming and going; parents dropping off children; residents of the area trying to exit onto LL Road on their way to work. When the school has a special event, there can be as many as fifty cars parked along both sides of Evergreen, Hemlock, and carried over to LL Road! Maybe the city planners should look at alternative exits to this new proposal such as the Cosy Lake Rd. to the west or around Treadwell Lake to Johnston Rd on the east.OR,talk to our provincial MLA's and create a brand new access exit /entry onto the Airport Arterial. For these reasons, we are totally opposed to this sub - division. Macdonald 50 Aspen Street 17 Ash Street 17 Ash Street John /Margaret Megan MacDonald Darci Northrup Mayor Mel K.

Box 1971 Saint John, NB E2L 41_1 November 3, 2015 Your Worship and Councillors, Can behalf of the East Coast Music Association's Board, its general members and staff, I am writing to express my sincere appreciation to the City of Saint John for its pledge of $125,000 in support of the ECMAs, which are confirmed to take place in Saint John from April 19 -23, 2017. The enthusiasm and professionalism of the local team spearheading the move to attract the ECMAs to Saint John has been extremely impressive from the outset. I am also confident that the city's first class amenities will ensure a successful event and attract music enthusiasts from across Atlantic Canada and beyond to enjoy this five -day celebration of East Coast talent. The ECMA has been devoted to furthering the careers of Atlantic Canadian musicians and industry professionals for the last 27 years. By doing so, we have also helped build a regional and professional music industry in our corner of the world, one that supports and develops the careers of both the artists and the industry. We look forward to bringing the ECMAs to the city of Saint John. Once again, thank you for supporting this dynamic and creative industry.
