7. PLANNING MATTERS
7.1 Public Hearing – 84-86 Highfield Street – Objections Received
Mr. Budd advised Council that at the October 5, 2020 Regular Public Meeting, Moncton City Council resolved that a public hearing be scheduled for November 16, 2020 for the consideration of objections to the proposed Heritage Conservation By-law amendment Z-1116.4. By-law Z- 1116.4 was also given first reading by Council at the October 5, 2020 Council meeting.
Public notice • A notice of the public hearing was posted on the City’s website on October 6, 2020. • Statutory notices were published in the newspapers on November 7 and November 14, 2020 as per the Heritage Conservation Act requirements.
4 Séance ordinaire publique – Procès-verbal 3 16 novembre 2020 Regular Public Meeting – Minutes November 16, 2020
• In addition, Ashford Living Gordon Inc., owner of the subject property, was notified by mail dated October 6, 2020, as per the Section 56(1)(b) of the Heritage Conservation Act.
Ashford Living Inc. owns the property located at 84-86 Highfield Street. The property owner has applied for a building permit to demolish the subject residential building. This triggered an initial heritage review, as is the process for all demolition requests. The review has identified some heritage value associated with this property. The property is listed as a Local historic property on the Canadian Register of Historic Places after being approved for registration by motion by Council on March 21, 2005 through the Historic Places Initiative.
In April of 2020, the Planning Advisory Committee (PAC) approved a variance application for the 6-storey building. At that time, the subject building located at 84-86 Highfield was proposed to remain, with the exception of a small addition (not original) at the back that could be removed. The existing rear property line of the subject property is to be relocated closer to the building in order to accommodate exterior parking for the new development. The south property line of the subject property is to be relocated closer to the subject building in order to accommodate the proposed new development.
Administration is proposing option 3; however, are providing Council several other options to consider.
Option 1 - Convert to a Single Family Dwelling (“SFD”)
• Exterior cladding would stay the same • Windows and doors would have to be reduced from 19.5% to 10.2% of the building face • The interior to be renovated as a SFD with interior connectivity • Only one Kitchen and one electrical meter permitted
Option 2 - Convert to an Office Building • Non-combustible, traditional cladding is required on the South façade • Unprotected openings to be reduced to 14.2 %. Recommend removing 4 side windows and fire rating door as shown in yellow in a guiding sketch. • Interior conversion from a residential occupancy to an office.
Option 3 - Remain as an up down Duplex • Non- combustible, traditional cladding is required on the South façade • Unprotected openings to be reduced to 14.2 %. Recommend removing 4 side windows and fire rating door as shown in a guiding sketch.
Option 4 • Provide detailed drawings/reports sealed by an architect or fire protection engineer on how this Property line change will meet the 2010 National Building Code.
It was noted that Planning and Building Services have worked with the property owner in finding ways to save the building. Several scenarios were developed and shared with the owner. These include various potential uses of the building representing different approaches to bring the subject building to meet the National Building Code.
Patrick Gillespie - Developer: Mr. Gillespie reiterated that his company had not been made aware this building was a potential heritage building prior to the project being started. Off-loading anywhere else than Elm Street is not an option due to elevation and infrastructure surrounding the building. He noted that the house itself will require extensive work.
In favour of the by-law: Mike Sullivan – Mr. Sullivan supports the City’s position of adding 84-86 Highfield as a Heritage Property. He noted that there are very few Queen Anne structures left in the City of Moncton.
Marilyn Shaw-Guiset – Did not wish to speak.
Marthe Leger – Ms. Leger expressed her desire to preserve the building. She suggested that heritage buildings be placed on post cards to show the pride of the city’s heritage.
Theodore Lewis – Does not wish to speak.
Anne Marie and Ed Moore – Did not join the meeting.
The Clerk advised that 2 letters of support for the developer’s wish to demolish the building had been received. Mr. Boyd Anderson and Mr. Rob Cybulski sent letters of support; however, did not wish to address Council during the meeting.
Mr. Budd indicated that other Cities allow deliveries to buildings without parking lots or space, to shut down streets for unloading supplies. This option is being explored by the City of Moncton.
5 Séance ordinaire publique – Procès-verbal 4 16 novembre 2020 Regular Public Meeting – Minutes November 16, 2020
In response to a question from Councillor Butler, Mr. Gillespie indicated that when he purchased the said property, they were not aware that it was a protected property. He was told that the property was not designated heritage when he spoke to Building Inspection. Mr. Gillespie expressed that it is his option that this building is not salvageable.
Mr. Budd, in response to a question from Councillor Lawrence, explained the designated heritage properties grant process. He also spoke of the grants offered yearly by the Heritage Board, as well as Provincial grants that are available for developers to preserve buildings.
Mr. Gillespie reiterated the impossibility of accommodating large moving trucks on Elm Street. Demolishing property in question, it would allow for trucks to off load, and provide additional parking, as well as offer an entrance off Highfield Street. It was suggested that perhaps that the city allow for the parking spaces along Highfield be utilized for moving trucks, when needed.
In response to a question from Councillor Thériault, Mr. Doucet advised that the estimated amount of funding could be $325,000 - $500,000 for the project.
Councillor Thériault spoke of the dedication of the Heritage Board and the work they do for the protection of the city’s heritage properties. She noted that the Killam House is in need of repair; however, if it is demolished, its history will be demolished along with the property. She implored the property owners to reconsider the demolishing the property, and advised that they would have the full support of the Heritage Board behind them in restoring the property.
Councillor Léger questioned if the city could provide as a solution the closure of Highfield Street when needed for deliveries, even if it was one day a week. Possibly keep the façade of the building. Mr. Gillespie indicated that should Council adopt the by-law this evening that they (developers) will work with the City to find a solution.
Councillor Boudreau indicated that the matter lacks any elements of providing the applicant the legal implications. He spoke of the exorbitant amount of money to upgrade the inside of the dwelling. He reiterated that importance of listing heritage properties in a timely manner. He will be voting against the motion.
Mayor Arnold closed the public hearing @ 6:30 p.m.
Motion: That Moncton City Council proceed with the Heritage By-law Amendment being By- law Z-1116.4 to add 84-86 Highfield Street as a designated municipal heritage conservation area, and:
1) That Council give second and third readings to By-law Z-1116.4
Moved by: Councillor Thériault Seconded by: Councillor Léger
In response to a question from Councillor Lawrence, Mr. Landry indicated that an option Council could bring forth a subsequent motion that administration work with the proponent.
Mayor Arnold spoke of the importance to save our heritage buildings.
MOTION CARRIED Nay: Councillor Boudreau Councillor Butler
Councillor Lawrence brought the following recommendation before Council.
Motion: That Moncton City Council direct administration to work with the current owner of 84- 86 Highfield Street, Ashford Living Inc. to review options in an effort to assist them with future operational needs at this location and to report back to Moncton City Council with their findings.

The proposed signs will encroach over City-owned property as per the dimensions shown on the plans annexed hereto.
The City receives requests for encroachments from downtown businesses quite often. The approval of those requests has been considered “routine” and without significant concern (once City administration determine that the encroachment (either a sign or awning(s)), will not interfere with operations (i.e. snow removal), will be erected pursuant to the requirements of the National Building Code and due diligence on the part of the City is completed). Additionally, and as indicated below, the applicant (property owner) is required to provide and maintain liability insurance, indemnifying the City from potential liability associated with the encroachment.
RECOMMENDATION / RECOMMANDATION That an Encroachment Agreement be entered into between the City of Moncton and the owner of the property at 795 Main Street, Boris Holdings Inc., to allow the encroachment of the proposed signs, and that the Mayor and City Clerk be authorized to sign the Agreement and affix the Corporate Seal of the City of Moncton thereto.
ALTERNATIVES / AUTRES OPTIONS Refuse the request. These requests, as indicated above, are routine and approved as a matter of course.

100 Cameron St, Suite 5002 PO Box 903 Moncton, NB Canada E1C 8N8 INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
To the Members of Downtown Moncton Centre-Ville Inc.
Report on the Audit of the Financial Statements
Opinion We have audited the financial statements of Downtown Moncton Centre-Ville Inc., which comprise the statement of financial position as at December 31, 2019, and the statements of changes in net assets, operations and cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.
In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the entity as at December 31, 2019, and its its results of operations and its cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with Canadian accounting standards for not-for-profit organizations (ASNPO).
Basis for Opinion We conducted our audit in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the entity in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in Canada, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with ASNPO, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the entity's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the organization or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the entity's financial reporting process.
Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. As part of an audit in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
• Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the organization's internal control.

p 506.862.1991 I f 506.862.1993 I infolathielgreene.ca I www.thielgreene.ca 36 INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT, continued
• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
• Conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the organization's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the organization to cease to continue as a going concern.
• Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of presentation
The financial statements were prepared in accordance with Canadian accounting standards for not-for-profit organizations (ASNPO).
Revenue recognition
Special levy, program income and interest income is recognized as revenue in the year received or receivable, if the amount to be received can be reasonably estimated and collection is reasonably assured.
Contributions received for capital purposes are recognized as an increase to the capital surplus in the year received or receivable, if the amount to be received can be reasonably estimated and collection is reasonably assured.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, continued Measurement uncertainty
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Canadian accounting standards for not-for-profit organizations requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. Significant areas requiring the use of estimates include: allowance for doubtful accounts and estimated useful lives of capital assets. Such estimates are periodically reviewed and any adjustments necessary are reported in earnings in the period in which they become known. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Financial instruments
Financial instruments are recorded at fair value when acquired or issued. In subsequent periods, financial assets with actively traded markets are reported at fair value, with any unrealized gains and losses reported in income. All other financial instruments are reported at amortized cost, and tested for impairment at each reporting date. Transaction costs on the acquisition, sale, or issue of financial instruments are expensed when incurred.

7. BANK INDEBTEDNESS
The Corporation has an established line of credit, to a maximum of $40,000, with interest at prime plus 1.25%, all of which is unused as of December 31, 2019.
As security for the line of credit, the Corporation has pledged a general security agreement and assignment of receivables.
8. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Corporation is exposed to various risks through its financial instruments. The following analysis provides information about the Corporation's risk exposure and concentration as of December 31, 2019.
(a) Market risk
Market Risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Market risk comprises three types of risk: currency rate risk, interest rate risk and other price risk. The Corporation is not exposed to significant market risk.
(b) Credit risk
Credit risk arises from the potential that a counter party will fail to perform its obligations. The Corporation is exposed to credit risk from property owners on assessed levies. An allowance for doubtful accounts is established based upon fa ctors surrounding the credit risk of specific accounts, historical trends and other information. The Corporation has receivables from a significant number of property owners which minimizes concentration of credit risk.
(c) Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that an entity will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with financial liabilities. The Corporation is exposed to this risk mainly in respect of its receipt of funds from property owners, the government and other related sources, and accounts payable. The Corporation mitigates this risk with an established line of credit.

9. ECONOMIC DEPENDENCE
The Corporation's special levy revenue is dependent on the approval of the levy rate by its non-residential users (stakeholders) as well as approval by the municipal council of its operating budget for the year.
The municipal council shall not approve a budget unless it publishes a notice disclosing the following information at least once weekly for two weeks in a newspaper having general circulation within the municipality disclosing the following information: its intention to approve the budget; the extent of the levy needed to implement the budget; and the period during which objections (by stakeholders) may be made.
A by-law must be enacted by Council each year to implement the levy on all non-residential properties within the BIA.
If the council does not approve a budget for any year, no levy shall be imposed in that year and the by-law made with respect to that business improvement area shall be deemed to be repealed as of January 1 of that year. The Corporation would therefore not receive the special levy revenue and it is management's opinion that continued viable operations would be doubtful.

Alcide Richard, Director of Design and Construction . Tanya Carter, Purchasing Manager . Jean-Guy Leger, Transportation Coordinator PURPOSE / OBJET To seek approval to terminate the City’s current Standing Offer agreement with Neptune Security Services Inc. for the provision of School Crossing Guard Services, and enter into a new agreement with the 2nd lowest Bidder having responded to Quotation #QP19-098, being Walker’s Security. BACKGROUND / CONTEXTE The City of Moncton is responsible for the management of a School Crossing Guard Program for the Moncton area, and requires the services of a qualified firm to provide trained School Crossing Guards and administer the School Crossing Guard Program on a day-to-day basis. The School Crossing Guard Program consists of employing adults to supervise and expedite children’s street crossing activities at designated school crosswalk locations. Their primary responsibility is to assist students to cross the street safely. They are not expected to act in the capacity of an enforcement officer. School crossing guards are only required to provide services during the regular school term (September to June), ensuring that students move safely to and from school; they are not responsible for street crossing services for associated school facilities or programs, such as daycare facilities, after-school programs, etc. Quotation #QP19-098 was awarded to Neptune Security Services Inc. by the City of Moncton at the Regular Public Council meeting held August 19, 2019, and a three (3) year Standing Offer contract was established for the period beginning Sept. 1, 2019 and continuing through to June 30, 2022. Regrettably, Neptune Security has repeatedly failed to deliver a satisfactory level of service in accordance with the provisions of their agreement, despite several attempts by Administration to work with the firm to resolve on-going contract performance issues. Under Article 34 of the Terms and Conditions detailed in Quotation #QP19-098, the City reserves the right to terminate its Contract with the successful Bidder, as follows: 34. The City of Moncton reserves the right, in the event that the successful Bidder fails to comply with the Terms & Conditions, and Specifications outlined in this Quotation document, to cancel this Contract within thirty (30) calendar days of receipt of written notice and award it to another Vendor without penalty or action against the City. This will include, but not be limited to, unsatisfactory performance by the successful Bidder or his / her employees, inability to meet service requirements, use of inexperienced / unqualified staff, poor workmanship, non- 53 CITY COUNCIL REPORT RAPPORT AU CONSEIL DE VILLE performance of the Contract terms, unresolved problems, response times later than indicated on the Bidder’s Response Sheet, and / or significant or repetitive deficiencies. The City maintains the right to determine the level of performance and quality of service that is satisfactory.

Their primary responsibility is to assist students to cross the street safely. They are not expected to act in the capacity of an enforcement officer. School crossing guards are only required to provide services during the regular school term (September to June), ensuring that students get safely to school and are not be responsible for street crossing services associated with other school facilities or programs, such as daycare facilities, after-school programs, etc. The successful Supplier shall be responsible for the recruitment, hiring, scheduling, payroll administration, training, supervision, and management of all School Crossing Guards to be provided under the scope of this Agreement.

Administration has included information in this report related to a status update on the City’s Strategic Plan action item ‘Finalize process pertaining to location of schools within the City’; BACKGROUND / CONTEXTE School site planning remains an issue of strategic importance to the City of Moncton. Included under the Social Pillar of the 2020 City of Moncton Strategic Plan identifies the following key action item: “Finalize process pertaining to location of schools within the City.” Administration has been working closely with representatives of the District scolaire francophone Sud and Anglophone East School District to improve the school site selection and long-range planning processes. This has resulted in ongoing Joint Administrative Meetings (with City and district representatives), meetings with provincial administrative representatives of the Department of Education, Early Childhood Development and Department of Transportation of Transportation and Infrastructure. The City of Moncton has worked closely with our District partners to develop a draft School Site Recommendation Policy and Procedure framework, to be potentially adopted and implemented by each school district (see attached October 9, 2020 correspondence). Administration has also spearheaded a City of Moncton School Site Planning Working Group to share information and work collaboratively for the long-range planning of school sites within the City of Moncton. The principal aim of the Working Group is to strive to align, as best possible, the planning goals and objectives of the Districts with that of the City’s long-term growth and development strategy. To date, the City and our District partners have received limited proactive cooperation from the Province in moving this draft Policy and Procedure framework forward, as feedback on making the draft framework compliant with provincial legislation remains outstanding. Although the City, Districts, and Province are slowly moving in the right direction, as evidenced by the recent appointment of the City of Moncton Director of Planning and Development to the facility Education Specification Committee associated with the construction of the new Bessborough-Hillcrest K-8 School, the City remains largely removed from the school site selection process. In this instance, the City was consulted after-the-fact, which has historically and continues to remain an issue of principal concern to the City. These recent events echo a similar top-down approach taken with the site selection process of Moncton High School, contrary to the request of the City to be more involved via a community participatory approach (see attached February 17, 2009 correspondence with Moncton City Council resolution). 59 CITY COUNCIL REPORT RAPPORT AU CONSEIL DE VILLE Ultimately, the City seeks to play a supportive role with the Province and our School Districts in the school site selection process, helping to build healthy communities and resilient neighbourhoods by providing City resources in key areas such as Planning and Development, Engineering, and Parks and Leisure Services. Notwithstanding events to date and outstanding concerns, the City remains optimistic that the provincially driven school site selection process can be improved upon, thereby moving away from a top-down technocratic approach to a more collaborative and inter-organizational approach, as per national best practices. To reflect the concerns of Moncton City Council regarding the ongoing relocation of existing schools, consequential disruption and restructuring of established neighbourhoods and communities, and the top-down school site selection process, follow-up will continue with Education and Early Childhood Development and the Department of Transportation and Infrastructure. RECOMMENDATION / RECOMMANDATION That Moncton City Council adopt the following resolution introduced by Councillor Charles Leger at the regular public meeting on November 16, 2020: WHEREAS the Province has the primary responsibility for school facilities planning, site location, and management. WHEREAS the City of Moncton has 22 public schools located in various neighbourhoods throughout the City WHEREAS the City has committed to work collaboratively with the Province in the area of school planning, as per policy ED-6 of the City’s Municipal Plan. WHEREAS the City promotes community interaction and engagement by encouraging schools to be integrated as important community focal points in neighbourhoods, as per policy ED-9 of the City’s Municipal Plan. WHEREAS the City supports the minimization of school planning costs and encourages more compact ‘smart growth’ built forms and cities, as per policy ED-10 of the City’s Municipal Plan. WHEREAS the provincial Planning Guidelines for Educational Facilities outline minimum school site areas as a “rule of thumb”, and indicate that these areas may be reduced in urban areas. THEREFORE be it resolved that: the City of Moncton correspond with the Province of New Brunswick, urging them to: 1) Engage the City in the school site exploration process, before a decision has been rendered on the location of a new school; 2) Conduct a review of the minimum school site area guidelines included in the Planning Guidelines for Educational Facilities, taking into consideration the minimum site areas outlined in other provincial jurisdictions; and 3) Continue to work with the City and local school districts in finalizing and implementing a new district School Site Recommendation Policy and Procedure framework (as included in the City of Moncton 2020 Strategic Plan), allowing for a more integrated, collaborative, and transparent school planning process.

Box 6000 Fredericton, NB E3B SHI Dear Minister Cardy, RE: Need For a More Integrated and Coordinated Approach for Future School Site Planning The City of Moncton was pleased to recently learn that the Provincial government is open to reforming the educational governance system to facilitate increased municipal input into the development of future school sites. Although the City, School Districts, and Province are slowly moving in the right direction, as evidenced by the recent appointment of the City of Moncton Director of Planning and Building Services to the facility Education Specification Committee associated with the new construction of the BessboroughiHillcrest K-8 School, the City still remains largely removed from the school site selection process. Ultimately, the City seeks to playa supportive role in the school site selection process, helping to build healthy communities and resilient neighbourhoods by providing City resources in key areas such as Urban Planning, Engineering, and Parks and Leisure Services. Finalizing the process pertaining to location of schools within the City was identified as a priority item and as such is included under the City of Moncton 2020 Strategic Plan's social pillar. Early involvement would ensure a more orderly approach to school site location selection, which in tum would not only help meet Provincial objectives, but would also help to minimize the need for costly City infrastructure upgrades to deal with traffic impacts or the ability for students to safely walk to school. ... /2 tel/tel 506 856 .4343 [email protected] [email protected] 63 Office of the Mayor Bureau de la mairesse CITY OF MONCTON VILLE DE MONCTON Honourable Dominic Cardy October 9, 2020 Page 2 Early involvement would also provide better community integration, including the ability for students to actively engage in after-school extracurricular activities and sports, walk to schools; thus reducing the need for busing or parent drop-off, eliminating greenhouse gas emissions (GHGs) and large parent drop off parking lots, etc. Moncton High School remains a case in point, yielding many lessons learned on why a collaborative effort would have produced more positive results. City administration met with representatives of the School Districts and the Deputy Ministers of Education and Early Childhood and Transportation and Infrastructure over 1 year ago (on September 4, 2019). At this meeting, the City and School District partners from Anglophone East and Francophone Sud presented a new proposed School Site Recommendation Policy and Guideline. This proposed framework would establish a more cooperative, consistent and structured process, to be used in conjunction with making school site recommendations to both the District Education Council and the Province. The issue of legislative compliance associated with the School Site Recommendation Policy and a new collaborative school site planning approach was discussed at this meeting. Despite follow-up correspondence on May 11, 2020 (attached), the City and School Districts have yet to receive any detailed comments feedback on how this proposed framework is non-compliant with the Education Act or now any recommended changes would render the documents compliant. The City continues to work with our School District partners in improving the long-range planning for schools. This is intrinsically linked with the school site planning process and should help address some of the challenges encountered to date. We remain positive and committed to improving the planning for schools in the city, be it for school site selection or broader long-range planning, and firmly believe that a communicative and cooperative approach will only strengthen the existing provincial Policy 409 - Multi-year School Infrastructure Planning and Planning Guidelines for Educational Facilities. As referenced in the PC Government Policy Platform, schools are much more than places to be educated; they are community hubs. Having the ability for the City to provide facts and information early in the school site selection process would be beneficial for everyone. .../3 64 Office of the Mayor Bureau de la mairesse CITY OF MONCTON VILLE DE MONCTON Honourable Dominic Cardy October 9, 2020 Page 3 We look forward to finalizing the next steps regarding this important collaborative approach. ~~j d$tp7i1{t Dawn Arnold, Mayor C: Honourable Blaine Higgs, Premier of New Brunswick Hon.
