ADJOURN BUDGET COMMITTEE MINUTES March 21, 2001 The following are the minutes of the Council meeting held at 2:00 p.m. in the Regional Council Chambers, 150 Frederick Street, Kitchener, Ontario, with the following members present: Committee Chair T. Galloway, Regional Chair K. Seiling, D. Bergman, J. Brewer, D. Craig, J. Haalboom, F. Kent, J. Martens, J. Mitchell, W. Roth, J. Smola, B. Strauss, S. Strickland, J. Wideman, L. Woolstencroft, and C. Zehr. DECLARATIONS OF PECUNIARY INTEREST UNDER THE MUNICIPAL CONFLICT OF INTEREST ACT None declared. BUDGET DISCUSSIONS Sexual Health Grants Committee members discussed how the sexual health grants are approved in other municipalities. Only 4 other Regions have a Planned Parenthood in their community. In some instances, the Health department would contract directly with the organization for service and it would not be treated as a grant. Dr. Kassam, the Chief Medical Officer suggested that the sexual health could be treated as part of the Community Health budget and not treated as a separate grantable agency. Committee members debated the mandate of the Ministry of Health and possible fee for service arrangements. Committee members asked for recorded votes on the sexual health grants. Planned Parenthood MOVED by S. Strickland SECONDED by L. Woolstencroft THAT the Regional Municipality of Waterloo approve a grant of $30,711 to Planned Parenthood Waterloo Region for the years 2001, 2002, 2003. CARRIED YEAS: D. Bergman, J. Brewer, D.

Agreements for Sexual Health MOVED by K. Seiling SECONDED by S. Strickland THAT the Regional Municipality of Waterloo authorize the Community Health Department staff to enter into purchase of service contracts with agencies to provide sexual health services as required by the Community Health Department, in accordance with Ministry of Health Guidelines and with the approved Community Health Department budget. CARRIED YEAS: D. Bergman, J. Brewer, D. Craig, F. Kent, J. Mitchell, W. Roth, K. Seiling, J. Smola, S. Strickland, J. Wideman, L. Woolstencroft, C. Zehr. NAYS: T. Galloway, J. Haalboom, J. Martens, B. Strauss. INFORMATION UPDATES Property Tax Position L. Ryan, Chief Financial Officer, provided an update on the existing budget position and previous direction given by Committee. L. Ryan explained how and where the budget was increasing based on the broad categories of: Police, Transferred Programs/Download Program/Unfunded Mandates, New Initiatives, Growth, Inflation/COLA/Other. The total budget increase is 6.25% however this increase is offset by assessment growth of 2.35%. Most of the increase can be attributed to Police(2.50%) and Transferred Programs/Download Program/Unfunded Mandates, New Initiatives(2.57%). Reserve Funds/Debt J. Martens continued to express his concern about the use of the Waste Water Reserve Fund to fund one-time projects. He questioned how these projects would have been funded if the use of the Reserve Fund was not approved. L. Ryan advised that the amount of debenturing would need to be changed substantially if the Reserve Fund was not used. L. Ryan informed Committee members about the various surpluses and the policies associated with surplus accounts. He also provided information on the reserve and reserve funds. Budget - 3 - 03//21/2001 J. Smola asked finance staff to provide copies of the various policies associated with reserve and reserve funds, purchasing, and debt. He asked that copies of these policies be placed in the Council library. Committee members asked a variety of questions related to the use of the following reserve and reserve fund: Winter Reserve Fund, General Insurance Reserve Fund, Environmental Insurance Reserve Fund, Sick Leave Liability, Workplace Safety & Insurance Board Reserve Fund, Tax Stabilization Reserve Fund, and Wastewater Reserve Fund. Committee members also debated debt levels and what they believed was appropriate. Area Rates Committee members asked how the area rates were being impacted as a result of the decisions. Committee members were particularly concerned about transit costs. D. Snow, Director of Transit, presented information on the new area rate for Cambridge. Committee members specifically asked for information on how the level of service had changed or how costs had increased. D. Snow explained how the service had changed and where the budget increases could be found. Some Committee members noted that Cambridge did not have or forward any reserve fund money for bus purchases when transit was transferred. Staff is trying to establish a “pay as you go” policy for the purchase of buses. Committee members asked that the same detailed information that D. Snow presented on Cambridge be prepared for the other municipalities and forwarded to Planning and Works Committee. Members also asked that updated information on ridership be included in the package. Committee members also discussed the blending of various area rates. G. Thompson, CAO, noted that it has always been the Region’s objective to harmonize the rates and the services over time.
