ISSUE In order to finance relocating of the water and sewer mains due to the sliding of the west hill, a debenture in the amount of $3,500,000 is required. This project and its funding method was approved as part of the 2014 Capital Budget. The Bylaw has received first reading and has been advertised. No petitions were received. It now requires second and third reading.

BACKGROUND

The Town of Peace River has utility lines located on the west hill. Due to the sliding of the hill, the lines must be relocated in order to maintain services to the area. The cost associated with this relocation is estimated to be $3,500,000. The province has stated that there are no grants or other forms of funding available from them to help defer any of the costs. As such, Administration is recommending that a debenture be issued. First reading was given to Bylaw 1951. Council may pass a borrowing bylaw as per Section 258 of the Municipal Government Act. The estimated remaining debt limit for 2014 is $17,259,585.

Option 1 Give Second reading to bylaw 1951 and then give Third and Final reading. Advantages: Passing of the Bylaw allows the Town to issue the debenture needed for the project. Disadvantages: It would impact the Town’s debt and debt service limits Financial Implications: The Town must include the annual payment as part of its operating budget for the next 15 years.

Option 2 Do not give second or third readings to bylaw 1951 as amended. Advantages: None Disadvantages: The necessary project would not move forward Financial Implications: Alternative funding for the project would have to be determined

Recommendation: Option 1. Administration recommends that Council provide second reading to Bylaw 1951 and then give third and final reading to the bylaw to provide funding for the West Hill Utility Slide project and allow the project to proceed as planned.

PEACE RIVER File Number: 72/1 00 To: MAYOR AND COUNCIL DATE: SEPTEMBER 22, 2014 PRESENTER: TANYA BELL PREPARED BY: TANYA BELL, DIRECTOR OF COMMUNITY SERVICES

TOPIC: CURLING CLUB — REQUEST FOR ASSISTANCE ATTACHMENTS: LETTER

ISSUE

The Peace River Curling Club has requested the assistance of the Town of Peace River, for an issue with their facility. This report will provide Council information on the actions of Administration to address the concern.

BACKGROUND

Administration reviewed the letter of request by the Peace River Curling Club in May of 2014. At the time Administration had initiated a structural review of the Athabasca Hall, following the flood and requested the engineer to take a look at the Curling Rink while they were in the community.

A representative from the Peace River Curling Club was in attendance at the rink site while the engineer conducted his assessment. At the review, it was noted that snow had been piled up against the building during the winter months, which was felt to be the main cause of the water infiltration.

It is the recommendation of the attending engineer; Brent D. Fehr, P.Eng. Scheunhage Popek & Associates to keep snow piles away from the building as an immediate measure to relieve water issues. In addition, for the Town and club to monitor the building in the spring to see if this simple measure is enough to address the issue. If there continues to be water problems at the location, it may be necessary to excavate around the foundation and apply a new waterproofing membrane.

Administration will formally confirm this recommendation with the Curling Club and will follow up with them in the spring to assess if the measure was successful.

RECOMMENDATION

Administration recommends that the Town of Peace River Council accept this report for information.

Mayor Thomas Tarpey & Council Town of Peace River 9911-100 Street Peace River, AB T8S I S4

Your Worship and Members of Town Council,

RE: PEACE RIVER CURLING CLUB BUILDING POTENTIAL STRUCTURAL ISSUES

I am writing to advise you of a recent issue that has impacted the curling club. In March of 2014 our club experienced water seeping into the northwest side of our building. An initial examination of the issue at the time leads us to believe that there may be some breakdown of the cinder blocks and/or sealants that make up the foundation of the building in that location.

Our Board of Directors met on May 20, 2014, where the issue was discussed. The Board recognizes the importance of acting quickly to remedy the issue, but we are concerned that what may seem like a small project initially may grow into a more significant problem that the curling club frankly cannot afford to repair.

Pursuant to Section 11.la) of the lease agreement of May 3, 2011 between the Town of Peace River and the Peace River Curling Club, the Curling Club, as the tenant, shall at its own cost and expense, operate, maintain and keep the premises in good order and condition and promptly make all repairs and replacements to the premises when needed (both inside and outside, strudtural and otherwise).

Recognizing that the Town of Peace River is the owner of the building, considering the Peace River Curling Club’s willingness to comply with the terms of the rental agreement, and understanding the importance of the curling rink in Peace River as an invaluable recreational asset to the entire region, we respectfully request technical assistance from the Town in identifying the noted structural issues and planning for the necessary repairs.

Thank you for your consideration of this request. We look forward to your continued support.

ly,

Wolfe President Peace River Curling Club

iEAcE File: 74/300 To: MAYOR AND COUNCIL DATE: SEPTEMBER 23, 2014 PRESENTER: TANYA BELL, DIRECTOR OF COMMUNITY PREPARED BY: TANYA BELL SERVICES TOPIC: LAND LEASE ATTACHMENTS:

ISSUE

The land lease with Sagitawa Friendship Society has expired and Administration requires an enabling motion for the Mayor and CAO to sign the proposed lease agreement.

BACKGROUND

The Sagitawa Friendship Centre leases the Town owned property identified as Lot R, Block 16, Plan 3409HW on which their building is located. This building is currently used for the Ground Level Youth Centre and other programming that Sagitawa offers.

The lease is a standard Town land lease, developed by our legal advisor, which had been for a term of 10 years.

Therefore, Administration is recommending updating the lease with the following provisions, pending Council’s direction;

- Rent -$1.00 per year 15t, - Term —5 years —January 2014 to December 31, 2019.

As this is a land lease there is no requirement for repairs and maintenance or reference to any building related clauses. The lease will also include a standard clause of a 1 year termination by either party. A five year term is being recommended as per our Legal Council advice for land leases.

Town Council reviewed the lease proposal at its regular meeting on June 23w, 2014, at which time Council was interested in additions to the lease.

The motion of Council stated: -moved that the Council direct Administration to inquire of our legal counsel what the Town’s rights are with respect to requiring a copy of the Sagitawa Friendship Centre’s bylaws, annual reports, and financial statements, and, if the Town of Peace River is permitted to all three, to amend the contract to reflect that.

Administration reviewed the issue with the Town’s Legal Advisor and the recommendation is for Administration to request a copy of the Club’s Bylaws, to confirm the dissolution clause as a requirement prior to signing the agreement. In addition, that the organization’s annual financial statements and evidence of the club’s society status would also be requested as a requirement prior to signing the agreement and that every year with the payment of the lease fee these items would be required to submit to the Town.

Page 19 of 205 Page 20 of 205 Page 2

It was advised that these items would not necessarily be included within the lease agreement, only if there were a financial interest on the Town’s behalf, such as a debenture on the building/property or if there were Town owned assets involved. In this particular case, the lease is only for land and does not include any financial interests.

RECOMMENDATION

Administration recommends that the Mayor and CAO be authorized to sign a lease agreement with the Sagitawa Friendship Society for the use of the land situated on of Lot R, Block 16, Plan 3409HW, for a term of 5 years; at a rate of $1.00 per annum and furthermore that the CAO be authorized to administer and manage the lease agreement including the provision of any consents, approvals and notices.

In addition for the Sagitawa Friendship Society to provide the following documentation prior to the formalizing of the agreement and every year after when payment of the lease is due;

- Annual financial Statements

- Copy of current society Bylaws

- Evidence of the Society’s status

PEACE RIVER

To: MAYOR AND COUNCIL DATE: SEPTEMBER 25, 2014

PRESENTER: KATE CHURCHILL, MUNICIPAL PLANNER, MMSA PREPARED BY: KATE CHURCHILL— MUNICIPAL PLANNER, M MSA

Topic: PROPOSED SUBDIVISION— MD 135 — MMSA FILE 14MK054 ATTACHMENT: SUBDIVISION APPLICATION SCHEDULE B—IDP REFERRALSYSTEM SCHEDULE A— IDP URBAN EXPANSION AREAS FUTURE LAND USE MAP—TOWN OF PEACE RIVER MDP

ISSUE Through the process established by the Intermunicipal Development Plan, a subdivision application from Municipal District of Peace No. 135 has been submitted to the Town for comment. As a neighbouring municipality, the Town of Peace River has the opportunity to provide feedback to the County’s Subdivision Authority.

BACKGROUND

The subdivison application for Pt. NW 28.83.22.W5M is in the Municipal District of Peace No. 135 north of Highway 2. The proposal is to subdivide from the Y4 section 10 lots (a total of 36.62 acres) for country residential use. The subject site is currently used for agricultural purposes and is approximately 500 metres west of the Town.

The proposal is consistent with the currently established planning framework in the region, including the Intermunicipal Development Plan (IDP), and is within the Primary Referral area of the IDP (see attached map). The subject site is also within the Urban Expansion Area (see attached map) of the IDP, which is the area that is recognized as important to the future growth of the Town and “proposed developments [must] be compatible to the long-term land use patterns for the area” (pg. 10). The adjacent land use within the Town is zoned residential and an ASP (St. Germaine Creek ASP, 2009) proposes low density housing.

The Municipal Development Plan (2010) notes that the Town’s 2010 land base is “insufficient to accommodate its long term growth needs” (pg. 9). The MDP identifies 1,087 acres of developable residential land within the 2010 boundaries, where much of the supply is located in farm land in the southwest, an area tempered by environmentally sensitive lands and challenging topography (see attached map). The Town of Peace River Growth Study (2006) supports this position and identifies areas to the east and west as appropriate expansion areas.

While the proposal is compatible with current land use in the area, it may interfere with the Town’s future expansion capabilities and administration wished to ensure that Council is aware of the development.

An IDP review process has been initiated and future meetings should address the issue of development within the Urban Expansion Area.

Page 41 of 205 Page 2 of 2

OPTION 1— Report to the MD 135 subdivision authority that “The Town of Peace River has no concerns regarding this proposed subdivision.”

ADVANTAGES: N/A

DISADVANTAGES: Allow development that may impact the Town’s ability to expand in the future.

FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS: N/A

OPTION 2— Report to the MD 135 subdivision authority that “The Town of Peace River has concerns regarding this proposed subdivision, given the current supply and location of developable residential land in the Town and the Town’s need to expand in the future. The Town of Peace River would request a hold on further subdivision within the Urban Expansion Area of the IDP, pending an update of the IDP.”

ADVANTAGES: Allows the Town and neighbouring municipalities the opportunity to asses the Town of Peace River’s future expansion needs.

DISADVANTAGES: May impact the intermunicipal relationship.

FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS: N/A

RECOMMENDATION

Report to the MD 135 subdivision authority that “The Town of Peace River has concerns regarding this proposed subdivision, given the current supply and location of developable residential land in the Town and the Town’s need to expand in the future.

• ATCO Gas and Pipelines Ltd. - North Franchise Fee & Property Tax for 2014

ISSUE To request Council’s direction with respect to the ATCO Gas franchise fee charged in the Town of Peace River.

BACKGROUND The Municipal Government Act permits a municipality to grant a franchise for the supply of natural gas. The Town of Peace River has had a series of agreements with ATCO Gas since 1958. The most recent agreement was signed in 2010 for a term of 11 years.

Pursuant to Clause 4(a) of the franchise agreement, the Town has the ability to review and change the franchise fee percentage annually. The franchise fee is passed along by ATCO Gas to each consumer (not necessarily property owners, but gas customers) as a separate charge on the natural gas bills based on their energy demand. ATCO Gas collects the revenue and then pays it to the Town. These funds are used to reduce the total amount required to be raised by property taxes.

If there is to be a change to the franchise fee, the Town must advise ATCO Gas by November 15th of each year.

Currently, the Town of Peace River has a franchise fee percentage of 24.7%. Council has the option to raise this percentage if they wish, to a maximum of 35%.

The following are the franchise fees charged by other northern municipalities.

Municipality Fee Percentage Berwyn 31.20 Donnelly 30.00 Grimshaw 33.80 Girouxville 27.40 Grande Prairie 29.60 Hines Creek 30.00 McLennan 24.00 Nampa 21.54 Rycroft 23.30 Sexsmith 25.00 Slave Lake 28.00 Spirit River 31.80

The current franchise agreement calculates the franchise fee using Method A which includes the property taxes within that calculation. Method A & P. which is used by most municipalities, shows the franchise fee and the property tax fee as separate items on the ATCO Gas utility bills. The revenue collected is the same;

Page 70 of 205 Page 2 however, the customer is made aware which portion of the fee is collected to pay for ATCO Gas & Pipelines Ltd. property taxes.

BUDGET IMPLICATIONS

The current 24.7 percent franchise fee would raise an estimated $463,730 based on ATCO’s forecasted 2015 delivery tariff revenue. This amount would include approximately $101,410 in property taxes.

Each one percent (1%) increase in franchise fees would result in an additional $18,775 in revenue.

An increase of 5.3 percent in franchise fees would raise an additional $99,505 based on the 2015 forecast delivery tariff revenue of $1,877,449.

It can be argued that franchise fee increases have less of an impact than a property tax increase as it is collected from all ATCO Gas customers rather than just taxable properties resulting in a greater equity for all property owners. Unlike municipal property taxes there are no exemptions.

OPTIONS

1. Increase the franchise fee charged by ATCO Gas from 24.7% to 30% effective January 1, 2015 and request ATCO Gas to amend the agreement to use Method A & P to calculate the franchise fee. 2. Increase the franchise fee charged by ATCO Gas from 24.7 % to _% as determined by council. 3. Do not change the franchise fee charged by ATCO Gas.

RECOMMENDATION

Administration recommends that: 1. ATCO Gas & Pipelines Ltd. be advised to increase the gas franchise fee rate from 24.7 percent to 30 percent effective January 1, 2015; and 2. Administration be authorized to approach ATCO Gas & Pipelines Ltd. to amend the current Franchise Agreement to use Method A & P to calculate and collect the franchise fees.

Attention: Mr. Kelly Bunn Chief Adiministrative Officer

Re: ATCO Gas and Pipelines Ltd. Franchise Agreement Clause 4(a)

Dear Sir:

Pursuant to Clause 4(a) of our franchise agreement, the municipality has the ability to change the franchise fee % in 2015; this request must be received by ATCO Gas in 15th writing prior to November If you are considering changing the franchise fee in 2015, please contact us as soon as possible to begin the process

As you are aware, ATCO Gas pays the Town of Peace River a franchise fee. The franchise fee is collected from customers in the community based on a percentage of our Delivery Tariff. In the Town of Peace River this percentage is 24.70%.

In 2013, our Delivery Tariff revenue in the Town of Peace River was $1,862,000.00. Our forecast Delivery Tariff revenue for 2015 is $1,877,449.00. Therefore, based on the current franchise fee percentage, the forecast 2015 franchise fee revenue would be $463,730.00.

We trust you will find this information useful, and, if you have any questions or require anything further, please do not hesitate to call me at (780) 539-2430.

Sincerely,

Senior Manager, Grande Prairie Operations

P p TOWN OF PEACE RIVER Request for Decision PEACE RIVER File: 31/142.2 To: Mayor and Council Date: September 16, 2014 Prepared by: Renate Bensch, Dir. of PRESENTER: Kelly Bunn, CAO Corporate Services Topic: ATCO Electric Franchise Agreement ATTACHMENTS: • Letter from ATCO Electric

• ATCO Electric — Rider A Municipal Assessment

ISSUE To provide council with options regarding the ATCO Electric franchise fee percentage being charged by the Town of Peace River.

BACKGROUND In 2006, the Town of Peace River entered into a Franchise Agreement with ATCO Electric for a term of 10 years. Under the terms of the Agreement the annual franchise fee charge was set at five (5) percent. The percentage being charged may be reviewed and changed annually. The costs are passed on directly to the residents of Peace River by ATCO Electric.

In 2009, the franchise fee percentage was increased from 5% to 6% percent and in 2013 the fee was increased from 6% to 7%.

Below is a breakdown of franchise fee percentages being charged by various northern communities:

Municipality Percentage High Level 10.50 Fairview 7.50 Falher 6.25 High Prairie 6.25 Grimshaw 6.00 Grande Prairie 7.75 Manning 6.00 Slave Lake 9.40 Rainbow Lake 7.75 Valleyview 5.25

BUDGET IMPLICATIONS Based on a 7% franchise fee, the Town anticipates receiving approximately $505,070 in electric franchise fee revenue in 2015. This amount is in addition to the property taxes paid by ATCO Electric.

Each increase of 1% in the franchise fee would result in an additional $72,153 in revenue.

OPTIONS

1. Do not increase the ATCO Electric franchise fee percentage in 2015. 2. Increase the ATCO Electric franchise fee percentage by 1%. 3. Increase the ATCO Electric franchise fee percentage by a percentage determined by council.

Page 74 of 205 Page 12

RECOMMENDATION

Administration recommends that ATCO Electric be advised that the franchise fee charged by the Town of Peace River will remain at 7% for 2015.

Re: Distribution Revenue Forecast for 2015 Franchise Fee Your Franchise Agreement allows for an annual change to the franchise fee percentage. However, a certain procedure must be followed, before the fee can be changed. This letter will help you with that procedure. The steps needed to change the fee are: 1. Your Municipality must decide if a change is required and what the new fee percentage should be. ATCO Electric will provide revenue estimates to help you with this (if the new fee is greater than the pie-approved cap in your franchise, a different process is required). 2. Tn accordance with the Alberta Utilities Commission (AUC) Decision approving your Franchise Agreement, you must publish a public notice of the proposed change in the local newspaper with the greatest circulation. This notice must include the effect of the proposed change for the average residential customer. ATCO Electric can estimate the new charges and the effect on an average customer bill. We recommend that fee change notices be published before Oct 14, 2015. 3. Residents have must have at least 14 days from the publication of the notice to make their concerns known to the Municipality and the Municipality is to respond to these concerns. 4. The Municipality will advise ATCO Electric by letter of the new fee percentage. This letter is to include a copy of the public notice, publication details (date and paper), and any comments the Municipality wants to include on the public response. 5. ATCO Electric will apply to the AUC to change the rate. Copies of the Municipality’s letter and notice will be included with ATCO Electric’s application. ATCO Electric must receive the municipality’s request (complete with a copy of the notice) before December 1, 2014 in order to obtain AUC approval and start billing the new fee January 1,2015. 6. The AUC must approve the change to ATCO Electric’s rates. Provided the Commission is satisfied that proper notice was given and no one has complained directly to the Commission, this approval should come quickly. 7. Once the rate change is approved, ATCO Electric will start to charge and remit the new fee. The following information will help you decide on the appropriate fee percentage. Current Fee Current Fee Distribution Revenue Estimated 2014 Estimated 2015 Percentage Cap Previous calendar year Distribution Revenue Distribution Revenue 7% of distribution 20 % $6,097,573.55 $6,897,975.76 $7,215,282.64 Revenue

To estimate the franchise fee, multiply the fee percentage by the estimated Distribution Revenue. When calculating your revenue requirements please remember that this fee is paid in addition to the linear taxes on the distribution system.

We are available to discuss this with you in more detail. If you have any questions or comments please call me at (780) 624-6743.

Topic: INSTALLATIONOFASURVEILLANCECAMERA

ATTACHMENTSPUBLICWORKSPERMISSIONSIGNATURES CAMERAQUOTE

IssuE Public Works would like to install a good quality outdoor camera on the outside of the Public Works Shop aimed at the entrance gate.

BACKGROUNDEarlier this year, an unknown person and vehicle rammed the entrance gates to the Public Works Shop located at 9510 — 92 Avenue causing approximately $3,000.00 worth of damages and it is not known if anything was stolen once they gained access. It is felt that a surveillance camera would ensure that should this happen in the future the Town will have recourse for compensations and can forward this information on to the Police. The camera will be mounted on the Southwest corner of the building and will be aimed directly at the entrance gate. This proposed camera has been brought up with personnel at the Public Works Shop and no one has objected to the placement or usage of this surveillance camera and signed a permission sheet (attached). The Union is aware of this request and Lisa Rybchuk, President of the CUPE898, has signed the permission slip. The purchase and installation of this camera will be less than $5,000.00.

OPTION 1— Install Camera

ADVANTAGES: Any damage to the Town property occurring after work hours will be caught on camera and costs can be recouped.

DISADVANTAGES:None.

FINANCIALIMPLICATIONS: Up to $5,000.00 to be taken from Operating Budget.

OPTION 2— Don’t install Camera

ADVANTAGES: None.

DISADVANTAGES: Should property damage occur in the future, Public Works would not recoup damages if there is not a reliable witness.

FINANCIALIMPLICATIONS: None.

RECOMMENDATION

Subject: FW: update on NCDC and the transition to the Northwest Transportation Advisory Council Attachments: transportation committee.docx

From: Daniel Dibbelt [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: September-14-14 1:37 PM To: [email protected] Subject: update on NCDC and the transition to the Northwest Transportation Advisory Council

Dear NCDC Members,

As you are aware NCDC has come to a close and as of October 16 will no longer exist as an entity. The lack of funding and interest from the British Columbia Provincial government as well as the termination of participation by the federal government which was the impetus to create the NCDC, along with the loss of membership from BC municipalities has left the NCDC Management Board no option but to cease functioning.

As such, no invoices will be sent for membership to the NCDC for its fiscal year 1014/2015.

Upon notification of the pending closure of the NCDC a number of Alberta communities stepped forward to look for ways to recreate an entity that would carry forward the important work of advocating for northern municipalities as well as northern trade corridors.

The Peace Region Economic Development Alliance (PREDA), an alliance of some 27 Peace Region municipalities, and the Regional Economic Development Initiative (REDI) an alliance of municipalities in the Mackenzie region of Alberta have come to an agreement to form the Northwest Transportation Advisory Council (NTAC) to carry on the work of NCDC. This new council, through funding from the two alliances have agreed to fund, manage and provide administrative services on an interim basis to assess the need and desire of past NCDC, and present PREDA and REDI members to form a new organization to move forward with the work previously undertaken by the NCDC.

The alliances will keep the new Council running until March 31, 2015. During this time work will carry on to promote and advocate for northern trade corridors, keep members informed on transportation issues, and educate members on the chain supply of moving commodities via northern routes. All NCDC members will be grandfathered into the new council and will receive all information and be invited to attend meetings, symposiums and tours coordinated by NTAC. Additionally, all members of PREDA and REDI will automatically be included as members of NTAC as well.

In March when the alliances are approaching their regular membership invoicing, a separate invoice, based on the former NCDC membership rates will be sent out to all membeis of NTAC. The invoices will be payable to PREDA, however the funds are strictly earmarked for the NTAC. Should there be sufficient interest from members to move ahead with NTAC, NTAC will carry forward. Please note NTAC, while operating under the alliances, is a separate entity umbrella under the alliances and membership in one of the alliances is not required.

As both alliances are providing the resources to fund and operate NTAC, an interim Board of Directors will be appointed, with five members from each alliance. While we are still awaiting confirmation from proposed board members, PREDA is proposing that the five NCDC board of directors originating from the PREDA region; Carolyn Kolebaba, Veronica BIiska, Charlie Johnson, Kevin O’Toole and Leanne Beaupre be assigned on the interim basis from PREDA. REDI will appoint their five members and you will receive notification of who they will be once confirmed. Additionally the Chair or designate of each alliance holds a non-voting position on the Council as well.

Page 152 of 205 I have attached the interim Terms of Reference of the NTAC. We anticipate holding a meeting in October for the new Board of Directors to review the Terms of Reference and begin the work of creating a long term Terms of Reference including the potential of opening up the board to all members, regardless of geographic location or membership in one of the founding alliances. Additionally the interim Board of Directors will help develop the new mandate and direction of the Council.

As a past member of NCDC you will receive all information and notices and are welcome to attend meetings to provide any input you or your organization may have in the direction of the NTAC.

We are grateful to the both REDI and PREDA for their dedication to moving northern goods and improving northern corridors and their willingness to partner to pursue an opportunity to carry on some of the great work NCDC did as well as to pursue new opportunities.

The NCDC website will continue on with a redirection to the PREDA and REDI websites. We will be developing a new page for the alliances dedicated to NTAC, which we will notify you when complete. NCDC’s mailbox will stay open until March 2015 and the NCDC phone number will be redirected to PREDA to handle enquiries. NCDC finances are being wrapped up and the bank account will be closed in the coming weeks.

We do ask that if you are in you budgetary planning process for you organization, you consider allocating funds for NTAC for the 2015/16 year. We appreciate you may be unsure at this time if you would support this council, however, you would then have the option of whether you join or not. The fee structure for NTAC will be the same as NCDC and I have attached the NCDC fee structure for your reference.

If you have any questions, please email Dan Dibbelt at [email protected] or call 780-527-6232.

We look forward to working with you.

REDI and PREDA

Page 153 of 205 REDI/PRE DA Northern Transportation Advicory Council Terms of Reference (draft)

1. Background The REDI and PREDA alliances has established the transportation committee to create the opportunity for its members to pursue transportation initiatives that will support the movement of northern Alberta commodities to tide waters as well as to advocate for the development of transportation corridors in northern Alberta. Additionally the committee supports the development of corridors that link to other provincial or territorial corridors that would benefit northern Alberta.

2. Purpose a. The transportation committee will monitor and disseminate information to its membership with regard to transportation developments and corridors potentially impacting northern Alberta. b. The transportation committee will both research and facilitate the research of topics that may impact or influence the development of corridors that may impact northern Alberta. This may include working with other research entities to ensure the interests of northern Alberta are taken into consideration. c. The transportation committee will coordinate workshops, forums, and tours to educate and inform its membership of transportation issues and opportunities that may benefit or threaten northern Alberta. This may include workshops or forums featuring leaders in transportation or industry, elected government officials to advocate for northern transportation priorities and tours to facilities such as the Port of Churchill or other locations that may benefit northern Alberta d. All events will be conducted in a cost recovery model. e. The transportation committee will advocate for northern transportation routes with all levels of government, prepare appropriate resolutions to move forward to government and facilitate meetings with government elected officials to advocate for its priorities. f. The transportation committee will pursue grants to carry with all and any of its research, projects or day-to-day works.

3. Membership

Membership to the committee is open to all levels of government, non-government organizations, economic development organizations, industry and industry organizations. Membership is based on the attached fee structure. Members are not required to be a member of either alliance.

Page 154 of 205 4. Governance

The transportation committee falls under the joint REDI/PREDA umbrella and is administered by PREDA. PREDA will manage the administration, financial and day-to-day management of the committee.

PREDA will be responsible for invoicing and all bookkeeping and will keep transportation committee funds independent from PREDA funds. All funds are to be used exclusively for the transportation committee.

The transportation committee will ensure fair and equal representation from its members and between the two alliances. The committee will consist often appointed representatives, five from each alliance. Additionally the appointed representatives will elect a Chair and two Vice- chairs, one from each alliance on an annual basis.

The transportation committee will meet three\four times per year. Meetings may held in conjunction with a committee workshop or seminar. Location of each upcoming meeting to be determined at the end of each meeting.

Quorum shall be six members with a required three members from each alliance. In the event that either or both alliances no longer wish to participate in the transportation committee, and the committee is dissolved, any and all funds will be divided equally among the alliances after all outstanding costs are paid out. Each alliance is required to give three months’ notice of a desire to dissolve.

5. Funding and Budget The annual anticipated operating costs of the transportation committee is estimated to be $36,000. Based on the Northwest Corridor Development Corporations funding model and Alberta membership the transportation committee could adopt this model, and assuming membership is consistent the committee is viable.

Membership fees would coincide with REDI/PREDA membership invoicing and would be above and beyond alliance membership and at the discretion of the alliance members.

Stakeholders interested in building on regional collaboration in follow up to the C2H initiative approached the Northern Alberta Development Council (NADC) at a working session held in May 2014, to facilitate holding this meeting. The NADC has offered to support the establishment of this initiative and provide secretarial support for a period of one year, if there is stakeholder interest, but it is imperative that a northern Champion take the lead. The NADC believes water management! training is an important initiative and will significantly impact the area we serve.

We hope you will be able to join us. Please confirm your attendance by September 30, 2014 with Kim Pinnock, A/Manager of Projects and Research, NADC Peace River office at 780-624-6432 or email [email protected]. If you are interested in this initiative, but are not able to attend please let us know, so we can include you on future correspondence.

r Emergency Response: Plan to Practice

Tuesday October 7r 2014 Grande Prairie, 1:00 pm — 4:30 pm

Ajoint learning opportunity for CAO’s,,Council Members, Board Members, Water Owners, Water Managers, Public Works Managers, and Operators.

Massivefloods in June of 2013 devastated swaths of Southern Alberta. It was clear that these extreme events presented challenges that hampered the ability of some WTPsto contend with the incoming water conditions with the resources and standard operating protocols in place. Inaddition to water treatment challenges, communities were faced with inundated or overwhelmed wastewater facilitieswhich had to discharge partially or untreated wastewater Into receiving streams. Liftstations and collection systems also were severely impacted with flooding and silt.

The recent catastrophic events offer lessons, not only from the standpoint of water and wastewater infrastructure system vulnerabilities, but also real consequences. Some of the key lessons learned from front line operators and from the efforts and perspectives of front line assistance providers willbe shared with an aim to provide insights Into future events of similar nature to increase awareness of available resources, inform optimal response, and develop strategies for consideration.

SEPTEMBER 1, 2014

To the honourable Mayor Thomas Tarpey,

The Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation — Prairies/NWTRegion respectfully requests that you, as Mayor of Peace River,officiallyproclaim the month of October as Breast Cancer Awareness Month and lend your voice to a very important cause.

Breast cancer continues to be the most common cancer amongst Canadian women: an estimated 24,400 women will be diagnosed with the disease this year and 5,000 willdie of it. For our team at the Canadian

Breast Cancer Foundation — Prairies/NWT Region, these statistics show how important it is to recognize the seriousness of breast cancer and reflect the need for well-funded research and awareness projects. th On the Sunday, October 5 2014 the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation CIBCRun for the Cure willbe held in 65 communities across Canada to raise much needed funds. In 2013, we celebrated with over 130,000 runners and walkers who, together helped raise over 27 million dollars to create a future without breast cancer.

With the help of so many generous people from cities and towns across the country, we hope to exceed last year’s figures and invest those donations in the best, brightest minds in breast cancer research and advocacy in Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta. An official proclamation of Breast Cancer Awareness Month from your council would go a long way to strengthen our efforts.

If you like, our team would be happy to provide you with pink ribbons, brochures from our breast health series and any other informative materials you require. We can also arrange free seminar sessions on

breast health and the work we do here at the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation — Prairies/NWT Region.

Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.

Sincerely,

Jennifer Brigden Marking & Communications Officer

Dear Mayor Tarpey,

I am pleased to inform you of the availability of the program materials for the federal Gas Tax Fund (GTE) and confirm that $208 million in GTE funding will be provided to Alberta’s municipalities in 2014.

The renewed GTE provides long-term funding for Canadian municipalities to help build and revitalize local public infrastructure while creating jobs and long-term prosperity. Additional flexibility to address specific local infrastructure priorities is provided by expanding the range of eligible GTE project categories, which now include recreational and cultural infrastructure, broadband connectivity, disaster mitigation infrastructure, and brownfield redevelopment, in addition to the previous categories.

Further information on program terms and conditions is provided in the GTE program guidelines, now available at www.municipalaffairs.alberta.ca/gastaxfund.cfm.

Your 2014 GTF allocation is $365,690. It is based on your 2013 population and was calculated using the funding formula established under the previous GTE program. Your GTF allocation is subject to your municipality entering into a funding agreement with the Government of Alberta. Funding agreements will be forwarded to municipalities for signing shortly.

August 8, 2014

Honourable Greg Weadick Minister of Municipal Affairs MLA for Lethbridge-West Legislative Office 404 Legislature Building 10800 97 Avenue Edmonton, AB Canada T5K 2B6

Dear Minister Weadick:

Effective water and wastewater management is essential for fostering socially, environmentally and economically sustainable communities. Northern Alberta Elected Leaders (NAEL), at their meeting in La Crete on July 4, 2014 confirmed their desire to see dedicated government funding provided to small communities (less than 10,000), for water and wastewater system maintenance and upgrades.

Safe and effective delivery of drinking water and proper wastewater disposal systems are costly services. Many small communities must look at replacing or upgrading aging infrastructure in order to meet current standards. Recent reduction in funding for municipal water and waste water treatment in the Ministry’s most recent budget affects the ability of small operations to maintain quality standards and recruit/train qualified technicians. Funding dollars from sources such as the Municipal Sustainability Initiative (MSI), are needed to provide other essential services, leaving small communities searching for additional support to provide this important service.

We respecifully urge you to consider funding for water and wastewater treatment outside of the current MSI allotment and allocate additional funding for small communities struggling to maintain safe and effective water and wastewater systems. The NAEL group will meet on November 14, 2014 in Grande Prairie. I invite you to attend and engage with northern elected leaders on this important topic. To confirm your attendance, please contact Chelsea Ferguson at the Northern Alberta Development Council office, 780-624-6338. We look forward to hosting you in Grande Prairie.

Warmest Regards,

Veronica Bliska NAEL Chair Reeve, Municipal District of Peace No. 135

August 8, 2014

Honourable Greg Weadick Minister of Municipal Affairs MLA for Lethbridge-West Legislative Office 404 Legislature Building 10800 97 Avenue Edmonton, AB Canada T5K 2B6

Dear Minister Weadick:

Since 2007, support through the Municipal Sustainability Initiative (MSI) has provided significant benefit to many northern communities. Our members value this funding and are concerned that recent funding realignments and the elimination of the MSI Operating Program (2016) could translate into loss of services for small communities.

On July 4, 2014 in La Crete, NAEL members supported a request to see a review of MSI operating funding, including an impact analysis of the new funding parameters on small community sustainability.

While members support funding of regional projects, as provided through the Alberta Community Partnerships Program, we urge you to consider maintaining the existing MSI operating grants, utilizing the existing funding criteria. Flexible funding is needed to support regional collaboration, while allowing communities the freedom to prioritize and resource local projects as needed.

Our members will meet in Grande Prairie on November 14, 2014. We invite you to join us and share with our members the ministry’s direction for MSl and the rationale behind funding realignments. Please confirm your availability with Chelsea Ferguson, Northern Alberta Development Council, 780-624-6338. We look forward to hosting you in Grande Prairie.

Warmest Regards,

Veronica Bliska NAEL Chair Reeve, Municipal District of Peace No. 135

Dear Ms. Bliska,

Thank you for your letter of August 8, 2014 requesting dedicated funding to small communities for water and wastewater system upgrades. The ministry appreciates that this is a priority for your communities. Municipal Affairs has several grants available to municipalities that might assist with the maintenance and upgrade of water and wastewater systems.

Firstly, under the Municipal Sustainability Initiative (MSI), municipalities determine projects and activities to be funded based on local priorities, within the program guidelines. Eligible capital infrastructure projects include both water and wastewater systems. MSI will provide $11.3 billion over the life of the program, in addition to the $1 billion increase in Budget 2014 (over three years) resulting from the Basic Municipal Transportation Grant consolidation.

Municipalities can allocate funding for operating and small capital water and wastewater expenses under the 2014 MSI operating program guidelines. The ministry is considering options for extending the phase-out period for the funding. When a decision is made regarding the MSI operating program, it will be reflected in the 2015/16 Budget. MSI operating remains at $30 million for this year.

The second grant, the Alberta Community Partnership (ACP), encourages municipalities to work together on regional priorities. The Intermunicipal Collaboration (IC) component of ACP is intended to fund partnerships led by municipalities with populations of 55000 or less. IC requires that two or more municipalities work together to explore strategic approaches to new or enhanced regional municipal service delivery, such as water and wastewater, shared administration, or governance. New to the IC component is support for the implementation costs, such as capital costs and limited term operating costs for pilot projects.

The MSI and ACP are complementary programs with different primary functions. ACP supports planning and implementation of improved municipal service delivery that strengthens the region, while MS$ supports infrastructure needs. Together they provide support for long-term local regional priorities.

The third grant is the Gas Tax Fund (GTE). GTF provides long-term funding for Canadian municipalities to help them build and revitalize their local public infrastructure while creating jobs and long-term prosperity. The new GTF agreement will cover the 2014-24 period, and Alberta will be allocated more than $1 billion for the first five years of the program, with $208 million expected in 2014. 2014/15 GTF allocation amounts to individual municipalities and program guidelines will be available after the program launch, expected soon. Water and wastewater infrastructure projects are eligible for GTF funding, including expenditures associated with planning, design, construction, and rehabilitation. Under the GTF, municipalities determine projects to be funded based on local priorities, within the general qualification criteria set out in the program guidelines.

Finally, there is the Small Communities Fund (SCF). Alberta is expected to receive $94 million over 10 years under the Small Communities Fund, a component of the New Building Canada Fund that provides funding to municipalities with populations under 100,000. We are working with our federal counterparts to ensure that the SCF agreement is in the best interest of Alberta’s municipalities and that appropriate criteria are in place to meet local, regional, and provincial priorities. The draft SCF agreement provided by the federal government lists water and wastewater infrastructure as eligible project categories. More information outlining Alberta’s approach, including the application process and more detail on project criteria and thresholds, will be provided in the fall, with a call for SCF projects likely occurring in early 2015. The timing of the application submission will give all municipalities equaL opportunity to access the SCF and will not reduce the total funding allocated under this program.

If you require any additional information about the MSI or ACP programs, please contact Marie Juengel, Director, Grant Program Delivery, toll-free at 310-0000, then 780-422-8105, or at [email protected]. If you would like to speak to ministry staff about the Gas Tax Fund or the Small Communities Fund, please contact Jason Waywood, Director, Grant Accountability, toll-free at 310-0000, then 780-641-9238, or at Iason.wavwood @ gov.ab.ca.

Attention: Mayor and Council

Dear Mayor Tarpey and Councillors;

RE: Mackenzie Municipal Services Strategic Plan 2015 — 2019

This is to confirm that the General Board of the Mackenzie Municipal Services Agency approved the Strategic Plan, 2015 to 2019 at their meeting of August 22, 2014. As there were no amendments to the draft that was presented to the Councils, the plan as presented is considered to be final, this includes the funding formula as contained therein. A copy of the final plan, as adopted, will be forwarded to your office in the next couple of weeks.

In terms of the service contracts, the Agency will be forwarding these at a later date, possibly in November in order to allow time to determine if there will be new members joining. If the Agency does attract new members, this would lower the annual requisition for all members. It is important to note, that the requisition amount will not be higher than what was initially presented to you in our delegation.

The final step in this process will be to forward the invoice for the 2015 service year. This will be hopefully by the end of November, providing we have the membership confirmed at that time.

I want to take this opportunity to thank all our members for the support and assistance that has been provided through this process. The Agency is determined to provide the services outlined in the Strategic Plan in a professional, timely and cost-effective manner. The Board and Staff are looking forward to the challenges that this next phase in the future of the Agency will bring and sincerely hope to meet all your expectations.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call our office.

Yours truly,

Karen Diebert Manager, Mackenzie Municipal Services Agency
