Dear Municipal leader,

Please accept this written request for a municipal proclamation.

Saskatchewan Multicultural Week is November 21-29, 2020. This year’s theme is “Who’s your Multicultural Superhero?” We all benefit when our communities welcome people from many cultures. Please see https://mcos.ca/events/sask-multicultural-week/superhero/ for more information.

Saskatchewan Multicultural Week is celebrated each November during the week that includes November 22nd. Saskatchewan was the first province to enact multiculturalism legislation in 1974, recognizing the right of every community to retain its identity, language, and traditional arts and sciences for the mutual benefit of citizens. In 1997, the Act was revised and a section of the Act states that the policy should preserve, strengthen and promote Indigenous cultures and acknowledge their historic and current contribution to development of Saskatchewan. More information is available on The Multiculturalism Act of Saskatchewan.

The Multicultural Council of Saskatchewan is committed to promoting, fostering, improving and developing multiculturalism in the economic, cultural and political life of Saskatchewan while working to achieve equality of all residents. MCoS is supported by Sask Lotteries through SaskCulture.

Thank you for your assistance. I look forward to hearing from you regarding this proclamation request.

Respectfully,

Rhonda Rosenberg Executive Director

City of Yorkton – Intent to Create Municipal Library & Apply to Change Boundaries

Pursuant to Public Notice requirements set out in sub clause 4.1 (2)(b) of The Public Libraries Act, 1996, notice is hereby given to:

(i) the chairperson of the board of any local library located within the area of the proposed change “Parkland Regional Library”; (ii) the chairperson of the Parkland Regional Library Board; (iii) the library director of each public library board affected by the proposed change “within the Parkland Regional Library” (iv) the council of any municipality located within the area of the proposed change “within the Parkland Regional Library”; and (v) the Provincial Librarian

On behalf of Yorkton City Council, this letter serves to notify you that at the Council Meeting of June 22, 2020, direction was provided to Administration to initiate the process for Yorkton to establish the Yorkton Public Library as a Municipal Library, and thus apply for a boundary change for the region.

There have been many factors that have influenced this decision, but ultimately under the current structure, the City of Yorkton is unable to implement efficiencies, improve service delivery, ensure effective leadership and determine focused and priority services.

The City of Yorkton recognizes the benefits of being part of the Parkland Region but ultimately needs to be able to deliver services for the best interests of the taxpayers of Yorkton. Yorkton City Council needs to be able to have a say and control services that Yorkton residents pay for. At present, the percentage share that Yorkton provides to the Regional Library System significantly exceeds the respective population percentage.

Prior to proceeding with this notice, we have had multiple meetings with the Parkland Regional Executive Board, but unfortunately have not been able to solve any underlying issues.

Attached is a formal public notice that is concurrently being sent to all required parties as above stated. A detailed list of recipients is also appended to this letter.

Sincerely, CITY OF YORKTON CITY OF YORKTON

CITY OF YORKTON PUBLIC NOTICE PROPOSED LIBRARY BOUNDARY CHANGE

The City of Yorkton hereby gives public notice pursuant to Section 4.1 of The Public Libraries Act, 1996 of its intention to change the library boundary.

Details:

On June 22, 2020, City Council approved a motion to establish a municipal library in Yorkton. The current Yorkton Public Library operates under the Parkland Regional Library system even though Yorkton residents pay for all of the operating costs. The objective of this change is to enable the City of Yorkton to directly manage and control the budget, set priorities and establish levels of service delivery for the Yorkton Public Library. In that regard, the City will be applying for a boundary change for the Yorkton Public Library by proposing the boundaries of the new municipal library be those of the existing City limits as outlined in the map below

Information: You can view this notice online at www.yorkton.ca There is a link to Public Notices on the home page.

Questions regarding the proposal can be directed to: Lonnie Kaal, City Manager Telephone: 306-786-1703 Email: [email protected]

Public hearing : Prior to applying for a boundary change and in accordance with Section 4 of The Public Libraries Act, 1996, City Council will hear all persons who are present and wish to speak to the proposal and all written submissions will be read verbatim unless the submitter is in attendance to speak on the submission on December 14, 2020 at 5:00 p.m. in City Hall Council Chambers, Yorkton, SK.

If you wish to provide written comments for Council’s consideration, they must be submitted by 9:00 a.m. on November 18, 2020. Written submissions must be directed to:

RE: Cemetery Bylaw Amendment

ISSUE: An amendment to Cemetery Bylaw No. 2018-03 to prohibit private columbaria has been prepared.

BACKGROUND: The Town received an inquiry from an individual regarding installation of a private columbarium at the Wadena Cemetery. The current bylaw permits columbaria and specifies that cremains be placed either in a niche or plot. There is nothing in the current Cemetery Bylaw that limits a private columbarium placed on a plot provided it meets the maximum size requirements prescribed for monuments.

The nature of the inquiry was provided to the Cemetery Committee for information. The Cemetery Committee recommended that the Cemetery Bylaw be amended to prohibit private columbaria due to the fact that the Town has a columbarium that we are promoting and to allow personal private columbaria throughout the cemetery would place these in direct competition with our present columbarium.

At the July 13, 2020 meeting Council authorized the preparation of amendment to Cemetery Bylaw No. 2018-03 to prohibit private columbaria at the Wadena Cemetery.

ALTERNATIVES: The author of the report is to identify all alternatives available to Council in this matter.

FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS: There are no financial implications.

ANALYSIS: A summary of the changes proposed in the draft bylaw amendment include: • Specifying that private columbaria are not considered a memorial • To correct a typo in terminology of ‘indigent’ persons • Change the references to Parks & Recreation Department/Director to Works and Operations Department/Manager • Specifying that private columbaria are prohibited.

The draft amendment was reviewed by the Cemetery Committee and no concerns were identified.

ADMINISTRATIVE RECOMMENDATION(S): “THAT Bylaw No. 2020-07, being a bylaw to amend Cemetery Bylaw No. 2018-03, be introduced and receive first reading.”

“THAT Bylaw No. 2020-07 be read a second time.”

“THAT Bylaw No. 2020-07 receive three readings at this meeting.” (*Note: Must be carried unanimously to proceed.)

“THAT Bylaw No. 2020-07 be read a third and final time and adopted.”

DATE: September 17 2020

RE: Water Treatment Plant Monthly Summary - September

BACKGROUND: This report provides an update on monthly issues at the water treatment plant (WTP) and what we are doing to mitigate these issues to create potable drinking water for the Town of Wadena.

ANALYSIS: Since being taken off the Precautionary Drinking Water Advisory at the beginning of the month, our numbers have been within standards. Through monitoring and extra backwashes when needed, we have been able to keep our filter turbidity low to enter the clear well. Flushing has also been utilized to keep these numbers down.

Our filter sample points have been ranging from 0.13-0.23 NTU which has kept our distribution turbidity down. The lowest numbers of turbidity in the distribution system leaving the plant have been the week of hydrant flushing, September 14-17, with 0.12-0.30 NTU. Filter turbidity is being closely monitored.

A pot perm bath for both filters was completed on September 10th.

We have also started doing raw water iron and manganese testing to better monitor the fluctuations we have been experiencing. We have been dosing our pot perm to accommodate fluctuations. Our pot perm dosage is set at 5.10mg/l down from 6.20 mg/l at the beginning of the month.

By the end of September, the clear well lid replacement will be complete. This gets us into compliance, which was flagged in our last inspection by the Environmental project officer (EPO).

A request has been submitted to Council to authorize the unbudgeted replacement of the pot perm dosing pump. This pump should be changed from a diaphragm type dosing pump to a peristaltic type dosing pump to eliminate siphoning issues.

TO: Mayor and Council

FROM: Alyshia Neuman, Manager of Works and Operations

DATE: September 11, 2020

RE: Water Treatment Plant Dosing Pump

ISSUE: The Water Treatment Plant needs a new potassium permanganate dosing pump.

BACKGROUND: In accordance with the P2018-011 Procurement and Purchasing Policy, non-budgeted items over $2,000 must be authorized by a resolution of Council. In addition, the competitive procurement process for services with value of $2,001 - $25,000 requires the Town to obtain at least two quotes.

P2018-008 Waterworks Rates Policy specifies that the infrastructure fees set out in the rates bylaw will be transferred annually to reserves when the funding is not needed to finance utilities infrastructure needs in the current year.

An update was provided to Council on the potassium permanganate dosing pump at the September 8, 2020 meeting.

ALTERNATIVES: 1) Council can allocate funds to finance the purchase of a new dosing pump. 2) Council can wait until 2021 to budget for a new pump.

FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS: This item was not budgeted for in 2020. The cost of a new dosing pump ranges from $2,100 to $3,800 depending on whether a diaphragm pump or peristaltic pump is purchased.

2020 Water & Sewer Year to Date financials are attached. 2020 infrastructure fees can be used to fund the robotic cleaning and will result in a decreased transfer to the Utilities Reserve at the end of the year.

ANALYSIS: Over the last few months, Works & Operations have experienced siphonage issues with the current diaphragm pump as well as suspected improper dosage amounts used to treat raw water intake. We have been working on overhauling the chemical dosage system. This includes a secondary day tank with isolation valves that will include a calibration column for the new pump. The primary tank will be used for mixing chemical only.

A diaphragm dosing pump has been used for several years in the water treatment plant and has been replaced frequently, as there are several discarded pumps that have failed due to crystallization of the

potassium permanganate. Research was completed to compare our current diaphragm pump to a peristaltic pump for our application. This pump must be able to turn on and off with the plant as needed with a pre-set dosage and must not be able to siphon in any circumstance. A peristaltic pump does not siphon, has fewer parts and thus easier to troubleshoot and repair.

ADMINISTRATIVE RECOMMENDATION(S): “THAT the non-budgeted purchase of up to $4,000 for replacing the dosing pump at the water treatment plant be authorized.”

DATE: September 16, 2020

RE: Water Treatment Plant Outside Professional Advice

ISSUE: Councillor Eliason has requested that Council consider seeking advice from an outside waterworks professional to diagnose the water treatment plant and prioritize repairs.

BACKGROUND: The 2016 Waterworks System Assessment confirms that Wadena’s waterworks system is aging and much of it may require replacement or significant maintenance in the next 15 years. Associated Engineering was hired to prepare a 2020 Waterworks System Assessment. Administration is reviewing a draft, but the report also recommends investigating the construction of a new water treatment plant in addition to optimizing the current treatment system and chemical dosages for removal of manganese and iron.

The Town also hired Associated Engineering to complete a Water Treatment Plant Upgrade Conceptual Design Report in 2020 (attached). This report provides a summary of the 2020 Waterworks System Assessment and was used to support the funding application to the Investing in Canada Infrastructure Program for a new plant. The funding application was not successful.

ALTERNATIVES: 1) Council can allocate funds to hire a consultant to provide additional advice. 2) Council can consider implementing the recommendations that have been provided in previous assessments.

FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS: This item was not budgeted for in 2020. The cost of obtaining an additional assessment would likely depend on the scope of the work requested. In accordance with the P2018-011 Procurement and Purchasing Policy, non-budgeted items over $2,000 must be authorized by a resolution of Council. In addition, the competitive procurement process for services with value of $2,001 - $25,000 requires the Town to obtain at least two quotes.

ANALYSIS: The Town’s water treatment plant requires extensive maintenance to continue to reliably make potable water. TSL Mechanical, ATAP, and Municipal Utilities are all well-versed in water plant maintenance and operations and have been contacted to provide ballpark quotes to aid us in diagnosing the water

treatment plant and to prioritize repairs that are needed. At the time of writing this report, no quotes have been received.

ADMINISTRATIVE RECOMMENDATIONS: Feedback and direction from Council is requested on whether they wish to seek further advice and what the scope of the work would be. Consideration should also be given to implementing the recommendations provided in the existing reports.

1 INTRODUCTION

Associated Engineering (AE) has been engaged by the Town of Wadena (the Town) to complete a conceptual design and cost estimate for Water Treatment Plant upgrades necessary to address issues identified in the 2015 Waterworks System Assessment prepared by KGS Group as well as those identified by AE resulting from the site visit on March 6, 2020 and the subsequent review of background information made available to AE by the Town. This report includes a population analysis, water demand projections, a water quality review, an analysis of the existing water treatment process, as well as a conceptual design for recommended upgrades to the existing treatment system, including a Class D cost estimate. AE is also providing the 2020 Waterworks System Assessment for the Town in parallel with this Conceptual Design Report.

1.1 Background The Town of Wadena is located on the border of the Quill Lakes, approximately 237 km east of at the intersection of Highway 5 and 35. The current water supply system for the Town consists of two wells located approximately 6 km south of the Town along Highway 35. At the time of this report, the Town was in the process of conducting GUDI (Groundwater Under the Direct Influence of Surface Water) assessments on the groundwater supply. (in accordance with WSA EPB 284). Based on the results of Phase 1 and 2 of the GUDI assessment, the Town has recently self-declared the supply as GUDI rather than proceeding with Phase 3 assessments.

The WTP was originally designed in 1961 as a groundwater treatment plant and was expanded in 1987. The expanded area now houses the The existing treatment process includes aeration, chemical oxidation, detention, followed by filtration and disinfection. The raw water flows through the tray aerator into the detention tank. Potassium permanganate is injected into the bottom of the detention tank for chemical oxidation. From the detention tank water overflows into two gravity filters. A chlorine gas solution is injected into the combined filter effluent for primary disinfection. Treated water is stored in the buried reservoir located behind the plant, water tower and Clearwell underneath the WTP building.

1.2 Scope of Work 00.docx

- The scope of this conceptual design is to review the available information, assess the existing treatment process, 4376 - recommend upgrades and provide a cost estimate for the recommended upgrades. The report will then be used by the Town to apply for grant funding for the project.

2 POPULATION AND WATER DEMAND ANALYSIS

The water treatment system for the Town must be able to provide a sufficient water supply to all residents and

businesses. Since the population of any community changes with time, it is important to ensure that a water system is Conceptual Design Report 2020 for Design Report Conceptual \ capable of providing enough capacity to support a growing population.

2.1 Projected Water Demand A historical water demand analysis and water demand projection were prepared and will be presented in the 2020 Waterworks System Assessment (WSA) Report. The following parameters from that report are used to predict the growth of the community and the related water demand projects for a 20-year design horizon. • A baseline 2020 population of 1134 people as provided by the Town. • An annual growth rate of 0.5%. • A per capita potable water demand of 510 L/cap-day which represents the 90th percentile of historical usage. • A maximum day demand of 1.7 based on historical records. • A peak hour factor of 3.75 based on Community Use Records for a community with a population between 1,001 and 2,000.

Results of the population and water projections are summarized in the table below:

3 WATER QUALITY AND TREATMENT ASSESSMENT

All drinking water in the province of Saskatchewan is subject to the standards that have been established by the Water Security Agency (WSA) in the Saskatchewan Drinking Water Quality Standard and Objectives (SDWQSO). The WSA has established limits for microbiological, chemical and physical parameters. Each parameter limit has been classified as either a maximum acceptable concentration (MAC), interim acceptable concentration (IMAC) or an aesthetic objective (AO).

Health Canada guidelines establish non-mandatory, health-based parameter benchmarks for drinking water quality. The provinces and territories use the guidelines to establish mandatory standards or aesthetic objectives within each province or territory.

Treated water quality records were compared to the SDWQSO and Health Canada’s Guideline for Canadian Drinking

Water to determine the effectiveness of the current processes. The test results were obtained from the SaskH2O Website.

3.1 Treatment Requirements 3.1.1 Iron and Manganese SDWQSO and Health Canada’s aesthetic objective (AO) for iron and manganese are 0.3 mg/L and 0.05 mg/L, respectively. In groundwater treatment processes, iron and manganese that have not been fully oxidized from their soluble forms into solid particles prior to or during filtration, are one of the leading causes of post-filtration turbidity. The reduction of iron and manganese results in decreased colour, taste and odour of water, as well as reducing the staining of laundry and plumbing fixtures.

3 Town of Wadena

The iron level in the raw water ranges from 2.6 mg/L to 2.7 mg/L and manganese levels in raw water range from 0.42 mg/L to 0.46 mg/L. The current treatment process is effective at reducing iron below 0.3 mg/L but based on the operator logs and the latest test of the distribution has difficulty removing manganese below 0.05 mg/L.

It is recommended that a water treatment process can reduce both iron and manganese levels to below Health Canada’s AO. The soluble forms of iron and manganese need to be oxidized into their insoluble forms and then removed by filtration technologies such as manganese-greensand filtration, biological filtration or hollow fiber membrane filtration. It should be noted that arsenic levels in the raw water exceed the provincial maximum acceptable concentration (MAC) of 10 ug/L however, the oxidation and filtration treatment process for iron and manganese typically also reduces arsenic. Water quality records would suggest that this is in fact occurring as treated water arsenic levels are 2 ug/L.

3.1.2 Ammonia The naturally occurring ammonia in the groundwater consumes free chlorine in the disinfection process, creating a combined chlorine or chloramine residual. Since free chlorine is consumed by ammonia, the ratio of free chlorine to total chlorine is very low when ammonia is present in the water, and chlorine dosage has not been high enough to ‘break’ the ammonia (also known as breakpoint). If the ratio of free chlorine to total chlorine is less than 10% to 20%, breakpoint has not been achieved, and the resulting free chlorine residual is generally considered inaccurate due to the interference that chlorine residuals have on the diethyl-p-phenylene diamine (DPD) test result for free chlorine. An unreliable free chlorine residual in turn results in an unreliable primary disinfection log credit. A stable free chlorine is one that makes up 70% to 80% of the total chlorine. If ammonia is present in the water, a stable free chlorine residual can only be obtained if breakpoint chlorination is achieved. For breakpoint to be achieved, a chlorine dose of eight (8) to ten (10) times the ammonia presence is required in addition to whatever constituents are present in the raw water that will consume or combine with chlorine. The current system is not able to remove the high amounts of ammonia without breakpoint chlorination. Levels of ammonia can be reduced with varying levels of success by air stripping, adsorption, biological treatment and demineralization processes. Recent test results of chlorine residual leaving the plant indicate a free chlorine residual of 1.0 mg/L and total chlorine residual is 1.3 mg/L. This would suggest that breakpoint is being achieved currently.

3.1.3 Turbidity For GUDI sources treatment guidelines require testing of raw water turbidity well as potable water. If the raw water turbidity levels are equal to or greater than 1.5 NTU, turbidity levels in the treated water should not exceed 0.3 NTU, and should never exceed 1.0 NTU. If the monthly average of the daily raw water source is less than 1.5 then turbidity levels in the treated water should not exceed 0.2 NTU and should never exceed 1.0 NTU. Raw water turbidity is not recorded for the plant as it has not been required as a groundwater plant, however, now that the Town has self- declared GUDI they must test raw water turbidity daily. Based on the 2019 operator logs the average turbidity in the potable water was 0.5 and the turbidity of the treated water was rarely below 0.3 NTU.

4 Town of Wadena

4 EXISTING INFRASTRUCTURE

4.1 Raw Water Supply The Town’s water is supplied to the water treatment plant through two shallow groundwater wells, Well No. 4 and Well No. 6. Both wells are located approximately 6 km south of the town along Highway 35. A 200 mm PVC line connects Well No. 4 to the supply main inside the well house and Well No. 6 is connected to Well No. 4. The Town also has Well No. 5 on the permit but does not use it as its capacity has worsened and it requires rehabilitation. The water is pumped through a 200 mm polyethylene line that was installed in 2002 from the well sites to the WTP. Details on the Town’s wells are summarized in Table 4-1 below:

Table 4-1 Raw Water System Summary

Item Well No. 4 Well No. 6 Year constructed 2002 2010 Well depth 18 m 27 m Maximum well yield capacity - - Recommended pumping rate - 11.4 Casing 200 mm nominal PVC 200 mm nominal PVC 7.6 m stainless-steel 10.6 m stainless -steel Screen 200 mm diameter 200 mm diameter

The Town has performed Groundwater Under the Direct Influence of Surface Water (GUDI) assessments up to the Phase 3 assessment and recently self-declared GUDI status. The raw water wells do not have backup power and in the event of a power outage cannot provide the WTP with raw water.

4.2 Existing Treatment System The WTP was originally constructed in the early 1960’s and is located on the south side of the town. The building is constructed of concrete blocks and was expanded in 1987. The expansion now houses the distribution pumps and separate chlorine room. The building consists of two levels, the main (ground floor) level, and the elevated filter level. The ground floor level houses the electrical, workbenches and process piping and electrical. The filter level houses the aerator as well as the air blower. The treatment process consists of chemical addition, aeration, detention, and direct filtration followed by disinfection. There is no backup power generator at the WTP and in the event of a power outage distribution pressure is maintained by the water tower’s head pressure until the engine driven standby pump can be turned on manually.

A flow diagram of the existing process is included in Appendix A. The process equipment includes chemical feed equipment, one aerator, one detention tank and two gravity filters.

5 Town of Wadena

The 200 mm supply line enters the WTP flows through a tray aerator. After the aerator the water flows through a 35 m3 retention tank that is reported to have baffles for additional detention time for chemical oxidation. Potassium permanganate is added to the bottom of the retention chamber for chemical oxidation. After the retention tank the water is split between two concrete gravity filters. After the gravity filters the treated water is pumped from filter effluent pumps to the plant clearwell/distribution pumpwell which is connected to the treated water storage reservoir. Before entering the clearwell, the filter effluent is dosed with a chlorine gas solution for primary disinfection. There is a blower which is used in conjunction with the standby distribution pump to backwash the filters. While one filter is being backwashed the other remains online. Currently there is no filter rinse to waste piping to allow the filters to ripen before discharging to the reservoir and may result in elevated turbidity in treated water. The filter piping, valves and effluent pumps are corroded and in need of replacement.

Major components of the water treatment system are summarized in the following table:

Chemical/Injection Location Storage Chemical Dosage Potassium Permanganate/ Bottom of retention chamber Liquid Solution 5.00 – 7.15 mg/L Chlorine Gas Solution/ North Filter Effluent Chlorine Gas 5.6 mg/L Note: Dosages provided by the Town

4.3 Wastewater Disposal The primary source of wastewater for the plant is from backwashing the filters and for the sink. All wastewater from the plant enters a sump located next to the filters which gravity drains to the communities existing sanitary system and sewage pumping station, located beside the plant.

4.4 Treated Water Supply Storage and Distribution Treated water flows from the filters into the clearwell located below the WTP. There is an additional underground storage reservoir located next to the existing clearwell.

4.4.1 Treated Water Supply Lines and Pumping Stations There are two 20 hp vertical turbine distribution pumps in the WTP which draw water from the clearwell and convey it to the water distribution system. The Town also has a standby natural gas driven engine pump in the event of a power outage, but this pump is required to be started manually. The distribution pressure is maintained temporarily until the standby pump can be started by the head pressure from the water tower. The pumps are used to maintain a distribution pressure of 32 m (46 psi). The table below summarizes details for the two distribution pumps and one standby pump.

Component Description • Goulds Pump Model: VIT-CT Distribution Pump No. 1 • Capacity: 20.2 L/s @ 45 m TDH • Motor: 20 hp • Goulds Pump Model: VIT-CT Distribution Pump No. 2 • Capacity: 20.2 L/s @ 45 m TDH • Motor: 20 hp • 80 hp natural gas engine driven pump Standby Pump • Capacity: unknown

7 Town of Wadena

4.4.2 Treated Water Storage The Town has one below ground potable water storage reservoir, a water tower as well as a clearwell that is used for pumping. The reservoir is located just behind the WTP and has a storage capacity of 1135 m3. The water tower has a storage capacity of 227 m3 and the clearwell located underneath the WTP has a capacity of 227 m3. A circulation pump and heater were installed in the water tower in 2012 and 2014, respectively. The treated water reservoir has an overflow that drains directly to the towns sanitary system, this should be blocked off to prevent backflow into the reservoir. A 250 mm steel pipe connects the reservoir to the clearwell which has a knife gate valve to allow the reservoir to be isolated from the clearwell.

4.4.3 Treatment and Disinfection Log Credit The Water Security Agency (Waterworks Design Standard, EPB 501) requires that all groundwater under direct influence of surface water (GUDI) facilities need to be adequately treated and disinfected on a continuous basis to ensure greater than or equal to 99.99% (4-log) inactivation of virus and 99.9% (3-log) inactivation of Giardia and Cryptosporidium. A minimum of 0.5-log Giardia and 2-log virus must be provided by the disinfection process. The Town recently self declared GUDI status after failing Phase 1 and 2 GUDI assessments. The existing treatment system of aeration, detention and filtration currently does not offer any log removal/inactivation credits for Giardia, Cryptosporidium or virus as it was designed for groundwater use. Therefore the current treatment system is not appropriate for a GUDI plant. Disinfection using chlorine is only capable of providing disinfection credits against giardia and viruses, but in order to obtain this credit, there must be a minimum free chlorine residual in place for a minimum contact time before entering the distribution system. This is referred to as CT (concentration x time).

The existing treatment process and storage volume with log removal/inactivation credits gained from primary disinfection is summarized in the table below.

5 WATER SYSTEM ASSESSMENT FINDING

5.1 Water Quality Issues The current treatment process is effective at removing the iron from the raw water, however it is not effective at removing manganese from the treated water. The manganese and iron in the raw water may require additional detention time to allow for chemical oxidation of the manganese, or if organically bound, may require more advanced treatment.

The other main water quality issue is the Town has recently self-declared GUDI status while not having the treatment capabilities for a surface water/GUDI source. Currently the only form of log removal/inactivation of virus and giardia is through primary disinfection, which is significantly compromised by the fact that all disinfected water initially enters the clearwell before entering the large reservoir, and therefore any contact time provided in the large reservoir cannot be considered in the CT calculations. The current treatment and disinfection system also does not provide any removal credit for Cryptosporidium, which require chemically assisted clarification and filtration or membrane filtration, typically part of a surface water plant.

Maximum allowable filtered water turbidity for a GUDI source is 0.3 NTU. The existing treatment system is not able to maintain filtered water turbidity below this limit.

9 Town of Wadena

5.2 Process Issues Currently the WTP uses the standby pump for backwashing the filters it is unknown what the capacity of this standby pump is so the filters may not have sufficient backwash flow rate. A separate pump for backwashing purposes would remedy this issue and allow backwashing during peak distribution demand periods. Additionally, there is no piping to allow filter rinse to waste after backwashing. This does not allow filters to ripen before discharging to the reservoir and may result in high turbidity levels in the treated water. The piping, valves and instrumentation are all badly corroded and in need of replacement in the filter gallery. The reservoir overflow is directly connected to the towns sanitary system and it is recommended that this be disconnected to prevent potential cross contamination from the sanitary to the reservoir. The treated water from the filters flows directly into the clearwell, where it is pumped from. Nothing is forcing the treated water to the reservoir which reduces the contact time available in the system.

5.3 Electrical and Controls Issues The main concern with the electrical system is the effects of a corrosive environment. The initial effects are unreliable operation of the equipment and accelerated deterioration. Longer term corrosion can result in safety issues from arcing contactors and breakers. The other main concern is that the area is congested making servicing difficult, as well as limiting expansion to support new process equipment.

6 PROPOSED TREATMENT SYSTEM UPGRADES

Based on the findings of the assessment, the most significant WTP issues are the inability to keep filtered water turbidity below 0.3 NTU, the inability to obtain the required log removal/inactivation credits from their existing treatment system as it was designed for groundwater purposes, as well and the inability to reduce the manganese levels in the treated water below the required aesthetic limit. The current capacity of the plant is sufficient, but the equipment has aged and is likely nearing the end of its usable lifespan. To address these issues, we proposed the following upgrade/replacement to the treatment system.

6.1 Proposed Upgrade – New Water Treatment Plant with Surface Water Provisions If continued use of the shallow GUDI wells is anticipated, then the new WTP must be a surface water treatment plant. If the town wishes to consider switching to new, deeper groundwater wells, then a new groundwater treatment plant is required. For the purpose of this exercise, we would propose a new reverse osmosis treatment system, with upstream oxidation and filtration and downstream UV disinfection and chlorination.

10 Town of Wadena

The proposed new WTP will consist of chemical oxidation, detention, manganese greensand filtration, followed by reverse osmosis (RO) membrane filtration. A UV system will be provisioned for following the RO membrane to achieve log removal/inactivation of Giardia and Cryptosporidium oocysts. Iron, manganese and arsenic will be converted from soluble form to insoluble form with potassium permanganate oxidation, with new above ground steel detention tanks providing time for the chemical reaction to occur. The filter effluent would flow into a membrane transfer/backwash supply tank. This tank will allow the filters to be backwashed with filtered water that has not yet been run through the RO membrane system. The tank will also hydraulically disconnect the filtration process from the membrane process. A transfer pump will pump water from the transfer tank to the RO membrane system for demineralization and ammonia removal. Anti-scalant will be fed into the membrane feed water to inhibit potential scaling on the membrane surfaces. Provisions for the addition of sodium bisulphate in the membrane influent will be included to ensure no oxidant remains in the membrane feed water as this would damage the membrane surfaces. A UV system may be required following the RO membrane filtration in order to achieve the required log removal credits for Giardia and Cryptosporidium should the source remain a GUDI supply. Sodium hypochlorite will be used for disinfection. Two new pumpwells would be constructed to allow isolation of any reservoir while still allowing for distribution pumping. The proposed process flow diagram, floor plan and site plan can be seen in Appendix A.

Table 6-1 Option 2 - Projected Water Demand

2020 2040 Maximum Day Potable Water Demand (m3/day)1 983 (12.4 L/s) 1,086 (13.7 L/s) Maximum Day Raw Water Demand2 1,380 (17.4 L/s) 1,524 (19.3 L/s) Notes: 1 22-hrs for maximum day and calculation for backwash. 2 The raw water demand is calculated based on RO membrane 75% recovery rate and 5% additional required for filter backwashing.

Given the RO membrane recovery rate of 75%, an additional well will be required for this upgrade option to meet the design capacity with the largest well out of service. Well rehabilitation and well capacity pumping tests are also recommended for both wells to confirm the current service condition. Additionally, it is recommended to investigate finding a true groundwater source by drilling deeper wells. If this is possible then the UV system would not be required.

6.2 Process Wastewater Water usage can be used to estimate the wastewater generated. Wastewater can be composed of process wastewater from the treatment plant, sanitary waste from water users and extraneous such as weeping tile, sump pumps, and surface drainage. Conservatively, wastewater generation rates have assumed 100% of raw water usage of the Town is returned to the sanitary sewer to provide allowances for inflow and infiltration. The projection of potable water demand and process wastewater generated from the WTP from the proposed upgrades to the WTP are summarized in the table below:

11 Town of Wadena

Table 6-2 Projected Process Wastewater

A further assessment of the existing wastewater lagoon system is required to determine if it has the required capacity for the proposed upgrade, or if an expansion to the system is required.

7 COST ESTIMATE

A Class D cost estimate has been prepared to identify the expected cost of construction for a new WTP for the Town. The estimated total project cost is $9.60M, which includes a 30% contingency, 15% for engineering and 6% PST. A detailed breakdown of the cost can be seen in Appendix B.

8 RECOMMENDATIONS

Based on the above discussion, we recommend that the Town proceed with the construction of a new water treatment plant. The new plant would include new pumpwells, a transfer tank, a new building which will house a new electrical room and backup generator and an area for the new detention tanks, greensand filter, RO membrane filtration system and will have provisional space for a UV system in the event it is required for surface water treatment. We also recommend investigating further if deeper wells that are not under the influence of surface water are possible to be used for the raw water supply.

RE: Tool Cat Repair

ISSUE: The Tool cat needs repairs that were not budgeted for in the 2020 calendar year.

BACKGROUND: In accordance with the P2018-011 Procurement and Purchasing Policy, non-budgeted items over $2,000 must be authorized by a resolution of Council. In addition, the competitive procurement process for services with value of $2,001 - $25,000 requires the Town to obtain at least two quotes.

ALTERNATIVES: 1) Council can allocate funds to repair the tool cat. 2) Council can wait and budget for repairs in 2021.

FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS: This item was not budgeted for in 2020 and was intended to be repaired in 2021. The amount remaining in the GL account 530-290-114 TS-Repair- Tool cat is $1,413 and the amount needed to repair the machine is $4,000. Year to date revenues in Transportation exceed the budget by $1,580 and the remaining $1,000 needed can be absorbed in other Transportation budget lines (TS Financials attached).

ANALYSIS: We have done some maintenance on the Tool cat but the hubs on the wheels have finally let go and the tires are sitting at an outward angle, this was intended to be fixed in 2021, but did not make it. We need: • Bearings, a new shaft, boot kits for both wheels, an arm, ball joint and snap rings.

We use the Tool cat for multiple jobs around town including snow removal. The machine has been down for approximately 3 weeks and we have seen an impact and we are worried the effect over the winter it will have not having access to this machine. Without it we will not be able to clean main street sidewalks for the businesses for one example.

ADMINISTRATIVE RECOMMENDATION(S): “THAT the non-budgeted purchase of up to $4,000 for repair the tool cat be authorized.”

RE: Recreation Centre Kitchen Tender

ISSUE: There were no tenders were submitted for Recreation Centre Kitchen.

BACKGROUND: At the August 10, 2020 meeting, Committee of the Whole decided to proceed with putting a tender opportunity out to the community for the Recreation Centre Kitchen instead of a volunteer run kitchen due to COVID-19 restrictions.

ALTERNATIVES: 1) Council can choose to not open the kitchen for 2020-2021 season. 2) Council can consider hiring additional employees. 3) Council can consider bringing in vending machines to offer snack foods.

FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS: There are financial implications to consider with all alternatives.

ANALYSIS: Alternative 1: Closing the kitchen would bring in zero revenue for the 2020-2021 season – however it would not affect the budget for 2020 because the kitchen was open for the majority of 2019-2020 winter and the revenue is recognized in 2020 budget.

Alternative 2: Hiring additional employees to stock and run the kitchen and be trained in safe food handing and understanding and complying with current COVID-19 guidelines and public health order would cost the Town of Wadena at least two Parks and Recreation Labourer I $12.57 per hour (2019 rates).

Alternative 3: Vending machines would cost the Town to stock machines.

ADMINISTRATIVE RECOMMENDATION(S): “THAT the Recreation Centre Kitchen not open at this time and be reconsidered if the public health guidelines change allowing operations to be more feasible.” TO: Mayor and Council

DATE: September 15, 2020

RE: Request for Proposals for Insurance Services

ISSUE: Councillor Sobchyshyn has requested that Council consider a Request for Proposal (RFP) for Insurance Services to give opportunity to local insurance providers.

BACKGROUND: Municipal insurance is a comprehensive liability insurance plan that secures the Town’s resources in case of claims or damages against it. It also shields the Town from the impact of liability claims and other risks that would affect the ability of the Administration and Council to govern, provide services, and look after the well-being of our taxpayers. With enough financial cover, municipal governments can focus on providing essential services and promoting the growth of local businesses, rather than accumulating deficits in claims that would otherwise be settled out of a limited operating budget.

The Town of Wadena has been using SUMAssure for its municipal insurance for several years.

ALTERNATIVES: 1) Council can authorize Administration to issue RFP for Insurance Services. 2) Council can deny the request to issue RFP and continue using SUMAssure to provide Insurance Services for the Town of Wadena.

FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS: There is no financial implication to issue RFP. In the future it will give us the opportunity to review proposals that could provide best value for our money.

ANALYSIS: SUMAssure is an insurance program owned and governed by subscribing members of SUMA and administered by Aon Reed Stenhouse. Its Board is made up of municipal elected officials and Chief Administrative Officers. SUMAssure provides specialized insurance for municipalities and their core coverage includes liability, municipal errors & omissions, property, boiler & machinery, crime and legal advice and expenses. SUMAssure also provides municipalities with information bulletins, newsletters, webinars, and an online portal to access insurance advice and information as part of their service.

The Town of Wadena paid $62,455.84 to Aon for our insurance premium 2020. We have had at least 18 claims in the past three years and have utilized their free legal advice program through DAS Legal. To change insurance providers for 2021 would be very challenging before our SUMAssure renewal is due in October. To prepare and advertise an RFP would take at least six weeks. To review, evaluate and contact references will take an additional two weeks.

The renewal process is lengthy and involves reviewing the coverage, all properties and their values, completing an inventory of equipment and machinery to be included in the insurance, and discussion of possible risks.

ADMINISTRATIVE RECOMMENDATION(S): “THAT Administration prepare a Request for Proposal for insurance services in 2021 for the following year’s insurance services to give opportunity to other insurance providers.”

RE: Review on Suspension of Late Payment Charges and Water Service Disconnections

ISSUE: Whether or not late payment charges and water service disconnection for non-payment of accounts be suspended or implemented.

BACKGROUND: On June 16, 2020 Council through resolution #236-20 extended the suspension of late payment charges for both utility accounts and accounts receivables and utility disconnections for non-payment until September 30, 2020 to provide financial relief for customers during the COVID-19 pandemic.

ALTERNATIVES: 1) Continue departure from current bylaw/policies and suspend late payment charges and utility disconnections. 2) Implement current bylaw and process interest calculation and implement current utility collection policy as normal.

FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS: The Town has lost approximately $2,500 in revenue from interest/penalties from both utilities and accounts receivables and $800 revenue from reconnection fees since the suspension of late payment charges in April 2020.

ANALYSIS: We are currently in Phase 4 of the Re-Open Saskatchewan Plan. Approximately 80% of our local businesses are open, kids are back to school, banks are operating on their regular hours, civic facilities are open for public and private rentals, different groups have started registration for dance, skating, hockey, among others.

The Town has provided financial relief to residents and business for the last 6 months. Aside from various recommended guidelines from the provincial government in order to prevent the spread of the virus, everything seemed to be pretty much back to normal, or some people have accepted the situation as the “new normal”.

ADMINISTRATIVE RECOMMENDATION(S): The resolution made in June implements disconnections for non-payment and late payment charges for utility accounts and accounts receivable effective October 1, 2020; however, if Council wishes to continue the suspension, a resolution is required.

RE: Wadena Van Corporation Municipal Grant

ISSUE: Whether or not Council wishes to suspend payment of the municipal grant to Wadena Van Corporation.

BACKGROUND: Due to the risks related to COVID-19 pandemic, the Wadena Van Corporation suspend their operations on March 18, 2020. At the June 16, 2020 meeting, Town Council discussed the operations of Wadena Van Corporation due to requests received to use the Handi-van. Council directed the CAO to send a letter was sent to the Board offering support in resuming service, however at that time, the Board was still not comfortable to resume with the operations. On July 13, 2020 Committee of the Whole meeting, a question was asked whether the Town should be providing the municipal grant to the Wadena Van Corporation if they are not operating.

ALTERNATIVES: 1) Council can choose not to give the municipal grant to the Wadena Van Corporation. 2) Council can do nothing, and Administration will release the budgeted funds as scheduled.

FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS: There is no financial implication as the grant was budget for in 2020.

ANALYSIS: Wadena Van Corporation fundraised for the acquisition of the Handi-van to provide paratransit services to seniors and persons with disability in Wadena and area. Subsequently, the Board transferred ownership of the van to the Town of Wadena but continued to operate the Handi-van operations with support from the Town.

Since 2015, the Town has been granting $2,000 per month for eight months of the year in accordance to the Council resolution below from the January 15, 2020 Regular Council Meeting:

12-15 Wadena Van Corp. Sobchyshyn, Kolach That, to help the Wadena Van Corporation with the costs of the transit-van operation, a monthly grant of $2,000 be paid to the Corporation, for eight months of the year (Jan, Feb, Mar, Apr, Sept, Oct, Nov, Dec). Carried

On September 1, 2020, the Wadena Van Corporation Board decided to resume the Handi-van operations with certain conditions due to COVID-19.

ADMINISTRATIVE RECOMMENDATION(S): Administration recommends continuing to pay the municipal grant as budgeted for 2020.

RE: Lane Closure

ISSUE: A formal lane way closure must be reconsidered by Council to complete the subdivision application process for C. Szymesko’s application to Government Relations.

BACKGROUND: Council recommended the approval of the subdivision to at the June 16, 2020 meeting. The only outstanding item is the road closure for the lane way.

In accordance with The Municipalities Act section 13(4) and Public Notice Bylaw No. 07-2005, Council shall ensure that public notice is given before initially considering permanently closing a lane to provide any person a right to have their objection heard. The process to close a road or lane way is attached.

ALTERNATIVES: 1. Council can approve the request deeming that the lane is no longer needed for use by the public. 2. Council can deny the request.

FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS: There are no financial implications as all costs are to be borne by the subdivision applicant.

ANALYSIS: The request is to permanently close the lane way behind lots on the north side of Portage Drive and Anton Place to relocate the laneway further to the north to accommodate a subdivision application.

Administration has complied with the requirements of the public notice process pursuant to The Municipalities Act and Public Notice Bylaw No. 07-05. The notice (attached) were posted at the Town Office, Town website and sent directly to the adjacent property owners.

ADMINISTRATIVE RECOMMENDATION(S): “THAT the lane on the north side of Portage Drive and Anton Place is no longer needed for use by the public and that Administration be authorized to proceed with it’s closure.”

RE: Tax Concession Request

ISSUE: A verbal request was presented to Council from B. Langlois of Kabri Construction for redevelopment of 100 Main St S.

BACKGROUND: P2003-004 Tax Concession Policy establishes guidelines for Council’s consideration of granting property tax concessions (attached). The granting of property tax concessions is solely at the discretion of Council.

The Municipalities Act (section 295) allows Council to exempt any property from taxation in whole or in part for economic development. Council may enter into an agreement with the owner for not more than five years and impose any terms and conditions they see fit. Any exemption by Council to school taxes must be granted in accordance with The Education Property Tax Act. Beginning in 2018, legislation provides Council with the authority to exempt school taxes provided the exemption is less than $25,000 and not more than 5% of the Town’s total Education Property Tax remittance.

ALTERNATIVES: 1. Council could approve the request as presented and enter into an agreement for tax exemption. 2. Council could approve the request with conditions and enter into an agreement for tax exemption. 3. Council could propose an alternate agreement. 4. Council could deny the request.

FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS: There are no financial implications in 2020, as taxes will not be levied on the property until 2021. Granting the tax concession as requested would result in an adjustment of approximately $6,000 per year.

ANALYSIS: Mr. Langlois addressed Council as a delegation on September 8, 2020 and outlined his plans to renovate the rooms of the motel in year one, open the rooms and renovate the restaurant in year two, and fully open business in year three. Mr. Langlois verbally requested a three-year tax concession of 100% of both municipal and school taxes.

This request exceeds guidelines/limits of the Town’s Tax Concession Policy. The policy indicates that applications must be received in writing and that existing commercial-industrial buildings where a vacant building is purchased and a new business is established, may receive 50% for the 1st year property tax and 25% for the 2nd year property tax after the business has been in operation for one full year. The policy is designed to protect the Town by only providing tax concessions once construction of new buildings is complete or businesses have been established for one year.

Council can depart from the existing policy and enter into an agreement with the owner. Terms and conditions of the agreement should be considered if Council is concerned about risks associated with development progress and the timeline for opening of the business.

ADMINISTRATIVE RECOMMENDATION(S): Administration recommends entering into an agreement to provide a tax concession with the owner to support economic development for whatever percentages and timelines Council feels is appropriate. If Council wishes to provide a tax concession, Administration would like feedback from Council on any terms and conditions for the agreement, and recommend that the agreement be drafted by the Town’s solicitor then brought back to Council for review.

“THAT Administration be authorized to prepare a tax concession agreement in consultation with the Town’s solicitor to support redevelopment of 100 Main St S.”

RE: Council & Committee of the Whole Meeting Location – October 20

ISSUE: The October 20, 2020 council and committee of the whole meetings can not be held at the Community Legion Hall due to a prior booking for the provincial election advance polls.

BACKGROUND: At the September 8, 2020 meeting, Council moved meetings from the Wadena Recreation Centre mezzanine to the Community Legion Hall north club room until further notice to allow for physical distancing requirements due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

ALTERNATIVES: 1) Council can hold the October 20, 2020 meetings at the Wadena Recreation Centre. 2) Council can cancel the meetings.

FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS: There are no financial implications.

ANALYSIS: The provincial election advance polls booking can not be altered. School of Dance is booked in the mezzanine at the Recreation Centre on October 20 and would need to be rescheduled or cancelled.

ADMINISTRATIVE RECOMMENDATION(S): “THAT Town Council and Committee of the Whole meetings be held at the Wadena Recreation Centre on October 20, 2020.”

TO: Mayor and Council

FROM: Jennifer Taylor, Chief Administrative Officer

DATE: September 15, 2020

RE: Town Office Hours

ISSUE: Councillor Sobchyshyn requested that Town Office hours be reconsidered at the next Council meeting.

BACKGROUND: At the March 17th meeting, Council resolved that the Town Office be closed to the public effective immediately and until further notice. At the May 19, 2020 meeting, Council authorized the opening the office Tuesday and Thursdays from 9am to 12pm. At the July 13, 2020 meeting, Council authorized the opening of the office Monday to Friday from 9am to 1pm.

ALTERNATIVES: 1) Remain open to the public from 9am-1pm Monday to Friday. 2) Extend hours to open from 9am-4pm Monday to Friday effective October 13, 2020. 3) Resume regular hours effective October 13, 2020.

FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS: There are no financial implications.

ANALYSIS: Municipalities need to make the decisions about what is best for their citizens and staff as the province moves through the phases outlined in the Re-Open Saskatchewan Plan. Council needs to take into consideration the safety of citizens and as an employer, the safety of staff. Municipalities, no matter what their decisions are, need to continue to provide the following government and community services: • All water/wastewater utilities; and • Resources deemed essential by the municipality (i.e. administration, public workers, etc.).

In accordance with provincial government guidelines, the Town office adheres to the following when open to the public: • Customers must hand sanitize upon entry. • Two-metre distancing between individuals should be maintained and there is a limit of two customers in the front office at one time. • Besides customers, business-related visitors should be limited to essential services only. • Encourage customers to use credit or debit cards for payment. • Conduct business remotely (e.g. conference calls, video conferences, email), whenever possible.

• Limit the exchange of papers (e.g. signing contracts). If documents must be exchanged, leave them on a clean surface while maintaining a two-metre distance. • Avoid sharing pens and office equipment. Disinfect after each use. • Enhanced cleaning and disinfection between every customer.

Services continue to be provided to residents over the phone, applications are being sent in electronically, payments are being made online, over the phone, through the mail, and through the drop box on the front door. In most cases, there is little need for residents to visit the office in person with the variety of options available.

Without accounting for COVID cleaning protocols, the two Administrative Assistant positions are very busy, as the reorganization of staff earlier this year eliminated an Administrative Assistant position and added a Parks & Rec position. The current hours enable staff to have dedicated time to focus on completing day-to-day tasks without having to clean and disinfect between customers. During the pandemic there are more sick days taken than under regular circumstances which also causes strain on the front office to serve customers and meet administrative duties. There is no ability to provide additional staffing without hiring another Administrative Assistant.

Public notice of the call for nominations for the municipal elections was published on September 14 and specified the current office hours for the nomination period ending on October 7. Extended hours should not take effect until after nominations close on October 13 to not interfere with the legislated notice.

All staff meetings are being held during hours when the office is closed to the public so that Administrative staff can fully participate in meetings without having to attend to the front counter. Administration recommends not opening to the public until 9am on a permanent basis so that all internal meetings can be held uninterrupted between 8 and 9am.

ADMINISTRATIVE RECOMMENDATION(S): Administration’s preference is to continue as is, Monday to Friday from 9am to 1pm. Although very busy, staff feel they can continue to manage under the current hours.
