Taber Players July 7, 2017 Taber, AB

Diane Llewelyn-Jones – President Jocelyn Steinborn – Vice President Peggy Steed – Secretary/Treasurer

Members of the Town of Taber Town Council,

Thank you for the opportunity to present this proposal.

We consider ourselves one of the three groups which represent, and are the pillars of the Arts in Taber: The Arts and Crafts Society, The Taber Irrigation Impact Museum, and the Taber Players. Each Organization has a long history of influence and citizen participation. The Arts and Crafts Society and The Irrigation Impact Museum have their own buildings in which to run, expand, enhance and grow their societies. These were constructed by and continue to be supported by the town. In this 30th year anniversary season of Taber Players, we request to receive a home as well.

We, the Taber Players, propose the purchase of the Reinland Mennonite church located at 4418 52nd street to provide a permanent home for the Taber Players. We are asking the town to purchase this building, and have the same arrangements as the other two pillars of the arts in our community – that of paying the utilities.

We are aware that the town is continuing to pursue the construction of an arts/convention centre. We hope for the town’s sake that this will e uilt. It will serve many varying groups in the town. But each group has the staility of a hoe i whih to prepare to use the venue as a performance/presentation space. We do not. The needs of a functioning theatre and performing arts society are much more than a venue in which to present the finished product. The Mennonite church would serve each of these needs in an amazing and exciting manner. It is almost a turn-key situation.

Our experience over the last 30 years has established that no matter how wonderful the performance or content of the play, approximately 100 people on a given evening make themselves available to attend a live performance in Taber. There have been exceptions to this data, for instance when we presented A Christas Carol at Christas tie i 1999 ad whe we reated Tak 77 for the Milleial celebration in 2000. The centre will be a very conducive to these types of projects.

The benefit of this statistic in our community is that rather than preparing for and investing in months of rehearsal, gathering of props, building sets and costumes for the sake of two or three performances, our actors can hone their performance techniques and skills over a much longer run, for in front of a live audience is where the true learning and gaining of experience takes place.

We have provided the following photos of the space and a description of how each component would amply serve our needs.

The Building Heated and Air Conditioned. Has wheel chair access outside and inside. Location is one block from the highway, close to restaurants with possible links to dinner theatre experiences and sharing late night drinks or snacks after the shows. Plenty of parking. Change of purpose for the venue will require sprinkling throughout.

A lobby with a ticket window is already in place, and men and women bathrooms with classrooms on either side if expansion of these are needed for code considerations.

Performance space for regular season shows and small events No need for microphones with elaborate sound system as acoustics are pristine. Seats 100 people comfortably. Stage area will need to be enhanced.

Rehearsal space Large enough to recreate the dimensions of the performance space, thus no adjusting needed when moving to stage, and use of props and integral set pieces are readily available. Separate entrance from the outside as well as wheel chair access from within the building.

Acting and technical theatre classes, and Kids Theatre Camps in rehearsal Space

Rehearsal space is large enough to support active youth with a kitchen for snacks attached as well as direct access to the outside parking lot, and direct access to props, costumes and simple set pieces without disturbing upstairs performance activities and preparations.

Dressing rooms

Diretly uder the stage with diret aess fro the stage, e’s ad woe’s athroos ad 2 rooms which would serve as me’s ad woe’s dressig/ake-up rooms next to bathrooms. A separate door to the public entrance gives access to these rooms.

Storage of props and costumes

4 rooms in the basement just off the rehearsal space and beside the dressing rooms.

Storage of sets

As these are borrowed on a regular basis by schools and other community groups, and are too large and not able to be accessed inside the building a garage will need to be constructed in the corner of the lot for access to this storage.

When the town arranged to create a home for the Taber Players in the former Library, Court House and Police station, Taber Players formed the Arts Council of Taber to take care of this project enabling Taber Players to concentrate on their performances. The Arts Council of Taber began preparing the space and through fund raising, obtaining grants, and receiving in-kind donations $320,000.00 was spent on the hope of a home. The cost of the Mennonite church is $369,000.00, with the cost of sprinklers and fire alarm systems, and an eventual garage built for the use of staging added to that. We believe this would be a rewarding compensation for those in our community who invested in the original vision.

We thank you for your time and consideration.

C) Proposed Alberta Urban Municipality Association (AUMA) Resolution

C. Armfelt stated that Mayor Prokop has requested that Council consider endorsing a resolution to be forwarded to the Alberta Urban Municipality Association (AUMA) from the Town of Taber, regarding the Cannabis Act (Bill C-45).

Council discussed the legalities of enforcing a potential Bylaw banning the sale of Cannabis, similar to municipalities that ban the sale of alcohol.

Council also discussed the background to the resolution that the introduction and first reading of Bill C-45 by the Government of Canada has instigated a process by which a significant extra burden and responsibility could be placed on communities to govern and direct a legal framework associated with the legalization and regulation of cannabis, thereby decreasing the capacity of the municipality to deal with other situations should they arise.

Council discussed the benefits and consequences of the proposed resolution to be brought forward to the Alberta Urban Municipality Association (AUMA).

RES. 279/2017 MOVED by Councillor Strojwas that Council authorizes the resolution of Cannabis Regulation, Not Pertinent to Province of Alberta, which states:

WHEREAS the Municipal Government Act states the purpose of a municipality is to provide good government, to provide services, facilities or other things that, in the opinion of council, are necessary or desirable for all or a part of the municipality, and to develop and maintain safe and viable communities; and, WHEREAS the fundamental powers, duties and functions of a municipality are essential to a well functioning person, family and community; and,

Council Request for Decision

Meeting Date: July 17, 2017

Subject: Updated Flag Protocol Policy C-9

Recommendation: That Council accepts the Flag Protocol Policy C-9, as presented.

As per Council’s request from their June 26, 2017 meeting, Administration made some amendments to the Flag Protocol Policy. Those changes have been highlighted for Council’s consideration. The Flag Protocol Procedure was also amended in conjunction and is attached for Council’s information. Town Administration contacted both the Office of Canadian Heritage (Protocol Division) and Provincial Protocol Office for further information on flag protocols. They provided some information that may be of interest to Council: - There are no such things as “federally mandated” flagpoles. As per Canadian Heritage, it is ultimately up to municipalities to govern their flagpoles as they see fit. The National Flag Etiquette is not law, and is only to be used as a common practice or guideline. As our contact at Canadian Heritage put it, “we will never tell you what to do with your flags and flagpoles, because each situation is different. However you choose to fly flags is up to you.” The etiquette is typically what is done with the National Flag, and what Federal Background: buildings will do with their flagpoles. - As per the Provincial Protocol Office, there is no true legislation regarding flags. Similar to Canadian Heritage, it is up to municipalities to decide how they shall govern their flags and flagpoles. Their etiquette is also common practice, but only a guideline. - Both Protocol Offices noted the same stance on flying two flags on the same flagpole. While it is more common for each flag to have separate flagpoles, it is not considered inappropriate the fly two flags on one pole, unless there are other circumstances or organizational policies which would prohibit that. Each Protocol Office noted several examples where two flags flew on the same pole simply because there wasn’t another pole, or because the municipality chose to organize the flags that way. Therefore, should Council decide to fly a flag under or above any other flag (such as a dignitary flag below the Canadian Flag), it is completely within their right to do so. While not common practice, it is an option available to all municipalities. For ease and to follow common practice, Town Administration chose to outline that two flags shall not fly on one pole in the Policy and Procedure.

Finally, Administration sought a quote for a removable flagpole for Council’s consideration. An estimated cost would be $2,650.00 for the flagpole, and an additional $300.00 for the base. If an additional flagpole were to be added, the amended Policy and Procedure would adequately govern its use.

Legislation / Authority: Municipal Government Act, Section 5

Council, management, and staff work together to promote a culture of service, both internally and externally, that demonstrates empathy, compassion, Strategic Plan Alignment: helpfulness, and professionalism. Foster cultural opportunities in Taber through improved venues, support of special events, and recognition of our cultural diversity.

No financial implication to approve the Policy. Financial Implication: Should Council approve a removable flagpole, the costs would be estimated at $2,650.00 for the pole and another $300.00 for the base.

Staff will lower and raise flags as necessary. Service Level / Staff Resource Implication:

Council requested a Flag Policy to better address the needs and expectations for Town-owned flagpoles. This policy addresses those needs while providing Justification: the community a space to express and celebrate those causes and events which occur in Town.

That Council approves the Flag Protocol Policy C-9 as amended. Alternative(s): That Council not approve Flag Protocol Policy C-9.

______Request for Decision Document Page 2 of 2 Template Version 1.0, 2014-06-05 Wailen Park Deficiencies Repair Strategy

1.0 Introduction A security deposit was taken as part of a Development Agreement between the Town of Taber and 13004258 Alberta Ltd. (Wailen Developments) with the understanding that the security would not be released by the Town until all requirements under the agreement have been met by the Developer. In a letter dated August 26, 2014 the Developer was notified that all deficiencies were to be addressed within 30 days. A follow up letter to the Developer dated October 7, 2014 indicated that has there were no observed improvements to the deficiencies that the Town would retain all security being held. As of March 31, 2017 this amount is $35,022.47, which has been held in operating reserves for the purpose of repairing deficiencies with the Wailen Development.

Today the public utility storm management dry pond, more commonly known as Wailen Park located at 4251 – 56th Avenue, has a number of deficiencies that are creating issues in terms of safety, maintenance, and overall function. These deficiencies include but are not limited to the graveled wheelchair ramp, the beach volleyball court, and the overall design of the space.

At a regular Council Meeting on May 23, 2017 Town Council was presented with this information with the understanding that once the funds were made available, Town Administration would explore the best way to mitigate the deficiencies with the space. This process would include engaging with surrounding residents.

The following resolution was made:

RES 227/2017: MOVED by Councillor Sparks that Council accepts the information the deficiencies of Wailen Park; and, that Council supports the spending of up to $35022.47 from Operating Reserves that was taken as a security to repair deficiencies with the Wailen Development, with Administration coming back to Council for final approval.

2.0 Public Engagement

Following the Council Meeting on May 23, 2017 Town Administration including Planning & Economic Development, Public Works, and Recreation got together to brainstorm on some ideas around Wailen Park and designed an online survey for residents to provide their feedback on the Park. The survey link was mailed to residents in the area surrounding the park as identified in Figure 1. The link to the survey was also included on the Planning and Economic Development Newsletter which was advertised through To of Taer ad Plaig ad Eooi Deelopet’s soial edia aouts. 11 individuals responded to the online survey and the results were evaluated and have be en taken into consideration into Administrations proposed plan. Full survey results can be found in Appendix A.

Figure 1: Area of mail out for Wailen Park deficiencies feedback

3.0 Proposed Plan

This proposed plan has been created by Town Administration based on feedback from the public, including the following key takeaways from survey:

- Currently extremely underutilized with only 9% indicating they use it more than once a month;

- One previously unidentified recreational use of the site is for sledding in the winter. Should ensure future development does not take this use away;

- 100% support for removing the volleyball court and re-sodding;

- Playground and Mini Soccer Field were the highest rated improvements. Mini Soccer Field is extremely cost effective and can be implemented right away whereas playground is likely part of a longer term improvement requiring additional funding. Basketball court had decent support and additional items such as skating and pickleball courts were recommended however given the location in a dry storm pond these would prove difficult to maintain and therefore have not been considered;

- Trees and picnic tables should be part of the plans;

- Removing the existing wheelchair ramp is supported. Over 60% believe it is not warranted to be installed. However, based on the extended responses this is somewhat conditional if there is a use in the space that could be used by someone in a wheelchair such as an accessible playground.

The proposed plan is split into three phases, as follows:

Phase 1

The goal of phase 1 is to mitigate current safety and maintenance concerns at the lowest cost possible to ensure that the public has a safe space to utilize and that Town staff do not get hurt or spend unnecessary amounts of time and money maintaining the site.

The phase includes:

 Removing the existing volleyball court structure;

 Removing the existing graveled wheelchair ramp;

 Removing the 7 large rocks located in the SW corner;

 Re-sodding the volleyball area and any area damaged by construction; and

 Installing a new irrigation system (pending Council direction on phase 3) The overall cost estimate for phase 1 is $25,000.00

Phase 2

The goal of phase 2 is to create a new recreational purpose to the green space that is low maintenance, low cost, and attractive to residents. Phase 2 will likely occur at the same time or have overlap with Phase 1. The phase includes:

 Planting of trees;

 Purchase and placement of 2 mini-soccer nets; and

 Installation of picnic tables. The overall cost estimate for phase 2 is $10,000.00

Phase 3 (optional)

This is an optional phase, with no funds available at this time. If pursued, the goal of phase 3 is to turn Wailen Park into a recreational hub for the surrounding residents. Phase 3 is not able to be fully funded within the budget and is dependent on future spending by Town Council.

The phase includes:

 Installing a playground structure. The overall cost estimate for phase 3 is undetermined at this point but the average structure varies dependent on size.

4.0 Recommendation

The recommendation of Administration for Town Council is to proceed with Phase 1 and 2 immediately in the summer of 2017.

Alternative 1: Proceed with Phase 1 and 2 immediately in the summer of 2017 and to allocate necessary funds needed for a playground structure.

Alternative 2: Provide further direction.

Appendix A – Wailen Park Public Survey Feedback Report Question 1: What is your age? (11 answers)

Of the 11 respondents the highest percentage at 36.36% was between the age of 25 to 34.

Question 2: How often have you used Wailen Park for recreation? (11 answers)

Of the 11 respondents, 9 (81.82%) indicated that they never used Wailen Park for recreation. Nobody indicated they used the park more than once a week.

Question 3: How have you used Wailen Park for recreation in the past? (11 answers)

Of the 11 respondents, 2 (25.00%) indicated they used the volleyball court and 2 (25.00%) indicated they used it for the green space – catch or soccer. 7 responded (87.50%) that they used Wailen Park for something other than those two uses, 6 of which said they never used the space and 1 indicated sledding.

Question 4: Do you agree with the phase 1 recommendation to remove the volleyball court and re-sod the area? (11 answers)

Of the 11 respondents, 10 (90.91%) agreed with the phase 1 plans and 1 indicated other and specified that the volleyball court was an eyesore. This can be assumed to be 100% support.

Question 5: Please rank the following future options from most (1) to least preferred (5)? (11 answers)

The 11 respondents ranked the options from 1 to 5 and were than weighted. The top 2 responses were playground (3.91) and mini soccer field (3.30). Playground had 55% indicate it as their most preferred but also has 20% indicate it as their least. Mini Soccer Field had 60% indicate it as their second or third prefered wth 0% indicating it as their least.

Question 6: Are there any other features that you would recommend be considered? (4 answers)

 A flower garden space and picnic tables. The drainage area with rocks is nice and I see folks enjoy it- but it needs a bit of attention in terms of cleaning out the tumble weed. Wheelchair/stroller access needs to be of a more organic design and not so jagged. Definitely needs more trees/shrus. It’s a spae ith tos of potetial ad there are a lot of young families in the area that would utilize it if it were more appealing.  Pickleball courts  Picnic tables  No matter what features are to be added needs to be re-sodded with good grass.

Question 7: The current wheelchair access is unsafe and will be removed. Do you feel it shold be replaced? (11 answers)

Of the 11 respondents, 4 (36.36%) feel it should be replaced and 7 (63.64%) feel it should not be replaced.

Question 8: Please provide any additioal coets that you ay hae… 7 asers

 As a resident near this park with a young family I am excited to see this park rejuvenated! It has a ton of potential and is a great area that is expanding quickly. Usable park spaces are priceless and I hope that one day it can be used to host a block party!  Pickleball/ multi-skatig ad asketall ourt siilar to Coaldale’s.  Not feasible for wheelchair access. Few more trees for shade.  If this space is to be updated then there needs to be some effort to take care of the field south of this park. The weeds should be mowed at least once a week or two so they don't spread into this park or become a fire hazard.  Unless you put in features for kids and adults there is no sense in making it wheelchair accessible.  I do not regularly pass by this park, but when I do I have never observed it being used for recreation.  Only replace the wheelchair ramp if there is something someone in a wheelchair can do down in the park.

When making its recommendation to the Legislative Assembly of Alberta the Commission will consider public input, population figures and relative population density throughout the province, common community interests, existing municipal and neighbourhood boundaries, and geographical features, including existing road systems, which suggest natural boundaries. The Commission is obligated to recommend constituency boundaries that respect the principle that each of our votes should be relatively equivalent to every Background: other vote, while allowing for adjustments required to maintain effective representation in all constituencies. The Electoral Boundaries Commission Act allows a variance of up to 25% in the average population of certain constituencies, if required to result in effective representation. However, effective representation can generally be achieved with variances much below this 25% maximum. The Commission will hold two rounds of public consultation with Albertans. The first round of public hearings took place around the province in January and February 2017 and formal written submissions were due February 8, 2017. As per the information on the Alberta Electoral Boundaries Commissions website, the second round of public hearings will be held in July and August of 2017 and formal written submissions are due July 16, 2017. The final report from the Alberta Electoral Boundaries Commission will be presented in October 2017, and after receiving the Commission’s final report, the Legislative Assembly of Alberta may pass legislation implementing those recommendations. If such legislation is implemented, Alberta’s constituency

Council Request for Decision

Meeting Date: July 17, 2017

Subject: Town of Taber Communications Survey Report

Recommendation: That Council accepts the 2017 Town of Taber Communications Survey Report as information.

One of the necessary steps to drafting a Communications Plan is to gain feedback from the public and incorporate their ideas and comments into strategic goals. The Town of Taber has never implemented a communications survey, so there was no tangible way to evaluate our current processes and how they work for our community. The report details the results of the survey in their entirety; only 3 responses were redacted because of their lack of objectivity and relevance to this survey and its intentions. The spirit of the remaining comments stand as a good lesson for future communications. This survey is a snapshot of the public’s perception at that time, and should be looked at in the context of the time the Background: survey was completed. As per Council’s direction at their February 13, 2017 meeting, two questions about video recording in Council meetings were asked. One was to gauge the level of interest in live-streaming and the other as recordings made available after the meeting. Both questions had the respondents’ majority in the “somewhat likely” section, indicating the public’s possible interest if such an initiative was to occur. Once Council is satisfied with the report, it will be posted on the Town of Taber website for the public to access at their convenience, as other reports have been in the past.

Legislation / Authority: Municipal Government Act, Section 3.

Council, management and staff work together to promote a culture of service, Strategic Plan Alignment: both internally and externally, that demonstrates compassion, helpfulness, and professionalism.

No financial implication at this time. Financial Implication:

Service level for communications processes will change in that staff will be Service Level / Staff asked to become more proactive in their communications initiatives. Resource Implication: Otherwise, staff level will remain status quo until new initiatives are implemented.

This survey provides one necessary link between the Town of Taber and its Justification: citizens. Surveys provide an opportunity for clear and honest feedback that will help Administration and Council provide higher service levels.

Council could ask for additional information. Alternative(s): Council could choose to ask for additional questions to be considered for the 2018 survey.

Pg. 01 Introduction

“Municipal government Introduction communications is a continuous The Town of Taber is a great place to grow, and that is the motto we try to live up to every day. cycle between In order to maintain that goal, the Town of Taber needs to involve and inform the public so they Council’s too can help foster a strong community spirit. Allowing the public to voice their opinions in as decision-making, many ways as possible allows for increased feedback, which in turn provides for better Administration’s decision making on the Town’s part. The more that Administration and Council understand project what the people of Taber need and want, the better we can provide those services to the implementation, taxpayers. and the public feedback According to the Canadian Public Relations Society, “more than half of PR professionals process.” (55.7%) indicated that their organization uses measurement and evaluation methods developed by [in-house] communication team[s] to measure public relations activities.” Previous to April 2017, no communications surveys were undertaken by the Town, thereby providing little evidence to suggest that current communications processes were effective. As the Town of Taber increases its communications presence, it needs to actively measure the success of those efforts and to adjust accordingly.

The results of this survey, in conjunction with other engagement measurements, will provide information that will allow the Town of Taber to better manage the way it informs the public. Citizens expect their government to be open, honest, and accountable, all of which the Town of Taber strives for continually. The more opportunities we give the public to provide their honest feedback, the better we can serve them.

Everyone has an active role to play in communications. Municipal government communications is a continuous cycle between Council’s decision-making, Administration’s project implementation, and the public feedback process. All three must work in conjunction to keep all parties fully informed. As long as this cycle continues to evolve and strengthen, the Town of Taber can continue to be a “great place to grow.”

Pg. 02 About the Survey

About the Survey

There are numerous ways to garner feedback from the public, but for the purposes of communications, it is best to get public opinion that is honest, uninhibited, and completely anonymous. This allows for the public to share how they truly feel, and for Administration to implement changes based on those results. Therefore, it was decided that an online survey would be most effective. In consideration of those who may not have had computer access, paper copies were also made available at the front counter of the Administration Building.

After researching a number of other municipal communications surveys, the questions were designed to reflect the current nature of communications for the Town. In addition to this, a number of questions were asked to reflect what the public wanted to see more of from the Town, and whether the current pattern of information was relevant to their needs.

The 2017 Town of Taber Communications Survey is intended to be the first in an annual public survey that allows citizens to give feedback on how they receive information about the Town and its operations. Each year can be customized with new questions, based on communication initiatives of the past year and past survey results. This will allow the flexibility required to correctly measure the effectiveness of initiatives put forth following public consultation. Pg. 03 Constraints

Constraints

As aforementioned at the beginning of this report, it was noted that there is a large demographic in Taber who do not use computers or mobile devices on a regular basis, and an online survey may alienate them from participating. In order to provide the option for interested parties, a paper version of the survey was also made available at the Town Office. This is a relatively easy way to allow for both demographics to participate in the survey if they chose to do so.

Additionally, a survey is subject to the context of its time period. If a large news item were to occur during the open period of the survey, the results could be skewed. In the case of this survey, it is worth noting that a large news item did occur, that being the resignation of former Mayor De Vlieger on April 25th. The survey closed on April 28th, and all responses had been received before the time of the Mayor’s resignation, therefore there appears to be no chance of this news story affecting the results of this particular survey. The results of this survey reflect the former 7-person Council, and some comments made by respondents may no longer apply to the new 6-person Council. However, current events is a factor that must always be considered when analyzing results. Former news stories may also play a part in affecting participants’ feedback, and must be deliberated when the results are compiled.

First surveys may not always garner large response rates. As the public is given more opportunities over time to provide feedback, and become used to the idea that their feedback is a necessary link in the governmental process, participation will only increase. For the first Town of Taber Communications Survey, 74 responses were received.

Pg. 04 Survey Sections

Survey Sections

General Demographics These questions give a basic understanding of the age, gender, and location of the participants in this survey. It also gives us a general idea of who is paying attention to our communication efforts.

General Communications Designed in order to get a general sense of public satisfaction with the Town’s current schedule of information. These questions also outlined the methods in which the public receives their information.

Social Media This section of questions asked participants to indicate which types of social media they use and what they would prefer to see on the Town’s social media profiles.

The Corn Husk Chronicles As one of the Town’s more structured forms of communications to the public, these questions were designed to ask if they read the Corn Husk Chronicles, and whether they feel the information contained within them is relevant to them.

Communications about Council Meetings Specifically requested by Council, these questions asked if the public would consider watching a live-stream of Council meetings or a recording of Council meetings. This section also included questions focused on the Council Highlights posted after every Council meeting.

Website Communications In light of the Town looking towards a new website in the future, the questions in this section will be used to evaluate our current website and identify the needs for a future update.

Overall Town Communications In order to get feedback on overarching satisfaction with Town communications, the questions within this section will provide a general “grade” for current efforts of Town communications. Pg. 05 General Demographics

Pg. 35 Analysis

“The public’s feedback is an Analysis integral part of efficient

governmental Of the 74 respondents to this survey, 46% indicated they are satisfied with the Town of systems, and the Taber’s communications as a whole. While the small number of respondents makes up only public must never 0.88% of the entire population of Taber, the feedback provided gives Administration and be made to feel Council a few points to consider and move forward with: that their input does not matter. Providing more Timeliness of Communications: as indicated a few times within the responses, some opportunities for citizens feel as if the information they receive is outdated or behind the times. This is the public to give something the Town can greatly improve on with more organization and a focus on becoming feedback is not proactive instead of reactive. This will require applicable staff members to think more enough; reporting strategically about how their initiatives, projects, news, and announcements will be distributed on the outcomes to the public. The more proactive the Town becomes with its communications processes, the of that feedback more informed our citizens will feel. This in turn will increase satisfaction with the Town’s must also occur if communications as a whole. the public’s input is truly valued.”

Public Feedback Process: A number of respondents made note of former feedback being ignored or disregarded. The public’s feedback is an integral part of efficient governmental systems, and the public must never be made to feel that their input does not matter. Providing more opportunities for the public to give feedback is not enough; reporting on the outcomes of that feedback must also occur if the public’s input is truly valued. If Council and/or Administration decide to move in a different direction than the public provides input on, the reasons why need to be clearly communicated. With the changes to the Municipal Government Act coming in to effect in the fall, public participation policies will become a mandatory element to a number of governmental processes. The Town of Taber has the opportunity to be proactive and get started on that process. Pg. 36 Analysis

Transparency: Trust is the breath that is needed for a government to survive and thrive. So, Administration and Council needs to ask themselves how we can ensure that the Town of Taber is as transparent as possible to our citizens. It is noted within some respondent’s comments that there is a feeling of dissatisfaction with the transparency of local government. Right or wrong, that feeling is easily remedied with a number of small initiatives, and will go a long way in bridging the gap between decision-making and the trust of the public. Whether it is being available to the media to answer questions when they arise, releasing more data and answers on a more frequent basis, or even providing contact information, the public has every right to feel that they are represented and served by the Town of Taber to the best of our abilities and at all times.

Information in a Second: When a large project or event occurs, the public want access to necessary information at a moment’s notice. Town staff need to have that information at their fingertips for when the public is in need of it, and there cannot be just one staff member who is able to provide that information. When Administrative Staff feel informed, they feel more adequately prepared to provide the public with information. A number of large projects have been implemented within the last two years that required a great deal of information to be disseminated to the public, and the Town can learn from those successes and failures to provide a more well-rounded information cycle to both staff and public.

Neutrality: Governments walk a very fine line when dealing with contentious issues. The Town of Taber has tried very hard to maintain an air of neutrality in all of its communications, but public perception may not always be favourable to neutrality. Two respondents provide two polar opposite comments in regards to neutrality: “I feel it is important for the Town to take a neutral stance...” and “certain holidays that are historically religious deserve the respect they are do [sic].” While consensus may never be reached on what is true neutrality for a municipality, it is important for the Town of Taber to represent all of its citizens at all times. Facts are always neutral; they cannot be disputed or refuted as they simply are what they are. Communicating the facts more often and more openly will allow for the Town to maintain its neutrality as frequently as possible. Pg. 37 Next Steps

However, status quo is no longer efficient enough or useful enough for the also shows that public, and therefore the Town of Taber must forge ahead with modernized, creative, and there is still a long timely strategies to help combat the information void the public often finds with local way to go.” governments.

The results of this survey are being implemented into the strategic goals of a Town of Taber Communications Plan. Although the results of this survey are not all-encompassing as to the kinds of goals the Town must strive towards, they do provide a basic framework for what types of information our public want to receive. Once we understand the “what,” Town Administration is better able to deliver the “hows” and “whens” of communications. As aforementioned in this report, the Communications Survey is intended to be an annual gauge of the successes of current communication initiatives for the Town.

The survey results indicate that progress is being made towards an open and transparent government, but also shows that there is still a long way to go before they will click “extremely satisfied” every time. With the help of the public, Administration, and Council, the Town of Taber can craft a number of ways to get our information out in a more efficient and effective manner. Whether it is fostering a positive relationship with the local media, testing out brand- new forms of social media, or using our own staff as information ambassadors, the Town has an exciting path ahead of it when it comes to communications. We can build on what we have done and currently do, and become the frontrunners for municipal communications not only in our own community, but in Southern Alberta as well. The Town of Taber is a great place to grow, and improved communications initiatives will let us demonstrate that to the world. Pg. 38 Sources

Council Request for Decision

Meeting Date: July 17, 2017

Subject: Tax Penalty Waiver

Recommendation: That Council does not waive any amount of taxes and penalties.

May 14 2015 Bylaw department posted a notice /order to comply on the front door of the property identified as roll #4450320. May 15 2015 the Bylaw department talked to the property owner and advised him to take the items to the dump which was free at that time. June 1 2015 the work was not completed and the bylaw department reminded him to clean up and he promised to complete it that day but nothing was done. June 3 2015 the owner was told that a contractor would be sent to complete the work. June 7 2015 the contractor completed the work. June 10 2015 TOT received the invoice in the amount of $874 and the TOT paid the contractor and charged the property owner tax account per the MGA section 550(1) and 553(1). The balance owing on this roll #4450320 prior to 2017 taxes is $1,488 which includes property clean up charges and penalties. Once the charges have been added to the tax roll it is considered Taxes Background: owing. July 16 2015 TOT sent a letter to the property owner advising that the cost of work was added to the tax account. The owner of the property identified as roll # 4450320 sent two letters to the Town office regarding the charges pertaining to yard clean up on the property. The letters indicate that there were many things missing after the cleanup. These letters were passed over to Bylaw area to make a follow up. June 14 2017 the Mayor received a letter from the property owner. The owner again listed items reported missing from the property at the time of clean up and has indicated that he is only willing to pay $240 for cleanup and not the arears amount of $1,488. This implies that he wants all the penalties removed. But $252 is penalty that would have been incurred without the cleanup charges. Note: The cost associated with cleanup is $1,236 plus $252 penalty that would have been incurred without the cleanup charges totalling the arears amount of $1,488

Subject: Information for Council

Recommendation: That Council accepts the material received in this Agenda Item as information.

The Town receives communication on an on-going basis that is likely of interest to Council. In most cases, this communication is provided simply as information to Council and no comment is needed. In some cases, though, Council may wish to seek clarification on the matter from its administration or from the originator of the communication, or even to challenge the matter through Council discussion. Placing the communication on Council’s agenda allows these opportunities. The relevant communication for this Council agenda is: 1. MNP Whistleblower Hotline – Ethics Alert Statistics for the period of April 1, 2017 – June 30, 2017, are attached, confirming no calls for the service during this period.

2. A Certificate of Appreciation from the Honourable Martin Shields, Member of Parliament, Bow River, along with a House of Commons Canada 150 commemorative coin was received for the Town of Taber. Background: The Certificate details the recognition of outstanding contributions made to our community as Canada celebrates its 150th anniversary of Confederation.

3. Mayor Prokop has signed a letter of support on behalf of Council for Protein Innovations Canada’s application to become an Innovation Supercluster. Protein Innovation Canada (PIC) is a not-for-profit, pan- Prairie consortium comprising of members of our regional agri-food supply chains such as private grain, pulse, and ingredient firms, producer groups, industry associations, food processing centers, R&D organizations, universities and colleges, and provincial and regional governments. Their focus is on positioning Canada to be a global leading source of high-quality plant protein and related food ingredients to contribute to Canada’s economic growth and international trade balance. Alberta Food Cluster represents the province of Alberta within PIC and has chosen to focus their attention to the Edmonton region and the Lethbridge/Taber region.

Council Request for Decision

Meeting Date: July 17, 2017

Subject: Standing Item - Council Requests

Recommendation: That Council uses this standing agenda item opportunity to address administration about their concerns, ask questions and direct municipal resources.

The Municipal Government Act only allows Mayor and Council to act by resolution or bylaw, not separately through individual direction to administration. If one member wishes to see action on a certain item that requires the deployment or diversion of municipal resources, that does not mean all or even a majority of the other six members want Town resources used in that manner. Also, it is likely that all of Council and the public want to know about issues of concern and interest in Taber, so this conversation should be shared for better governance. Background: To assist in this information sharing and ensure agreement on the relative importance of activities, and to facilitate a common understanding, Council established a standing item on Council agendas that would allow the Mayor and Councillors to raise issues of individual concern. This allows discussion amongst Council and with administration on how best to deal with these concerns. It is an opportunity for Council to provide suggestions or direction to administration as to how best to proceed. The intention of this RFD is for items to be brought forward from the floor at the meeting.

MGA Section 153 (General Duties of Councillors), Section 154 (General Duties Legislation / Authority: of Chief Elected Official, Section 180 (Methods in Which Council May Act); Section 249 (Civil Liability of Councillors)

Goal: Make the Town of Taber an employer of choice, where employees are Strategic Plan Alignment: self-assured, valued, respected and viewed as the corporation’s strongest asset.

The financial implication will vary depending on the discussion outcomes but Financial Implication: should consider the alignment of Town facility and service provision with the approved budget.

Having a regular Council discussion about service levels will improve the ability Service Level / Staff of administration to meet the expectations of Council rather than dealing with Resource Implication: the requests of individuals on an ad hoc basis.

This will bring administration efficiencies and the better alignment of services Justification: and expenditures with the budget. It will also help improve communication protocols and adherence to the Municipal Government Act.
