Development Charges (D.C.)

Purpose: • To recover the capital costs associated with residential and non- residential growth within a municipality • The capital costs are in addition to what costs would normally be constructed as part of a subdivision (i.e. internal roads, sewers, watermains, roads, sidewalks, streetlights, etc.) • Municipalities are empowered to impose these charges via the Development Charges Act (D.C.A.)

Bill 108: “More Homes, More Choice: 's Housing Supply Action Plan” The following provides a brief overview of the proposed changes to the Development Charges Act (known as of June 6, 2019): • Changes to eligible services • Soft Services will be removed from the DCA and will be considered as part of a new Community Benefits Charge imposed under the Planning Act (i.e. parking, outdoor recreation, indoor recreation, library services, etc.) • Payment in Installments: • Over six years for rental housing, as well as non-residential developments will pay their DC in six equal annual installments • Over 20 years for non-profit housing, will pay their DC in equal annual installments • When DC Amount is Determined • Currently DCs are calculated at the building permit stage. The proposed change would have DCs calculated on the date of the application for Site Plan or zoning amendment

Bill 108: “More Homes, More Choice: Ontario's Housing Supply Action Plan” Community Benefit Charge (for soft services – outdoor recreation, indoor recreation, library and soft service admin studies ) • Municipality may, by by-law, impose community benefits charges against land to pay for the capital costs of facilities, services and matters required because of development or redevelopment in the area to which the by-law applies • These services may not include services authorized by the DCA • The amount of a community benefits charge payable shall not exceed an amount equal to the prescribed percentage of the value of the land as of the valuation date • The valuation date is the day before building permit issuance • All money received by the municipality under a community benefits charge by-law shall be paid into a special account • Transitional provisions are set out regarding the DC reserve funds and DC credits Note that the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing has hired a vendor to develop a preliminary methodology and draft percentages for the province’s consideration related to the Community Benefit Charge. The Ministry has also established a CBC Technical Consultation Group that will provide critical insight to the Ministry and assistance in guiding the work of the vendor. Meetings of the Technical Group have begun and will continue through the summer and early fall. 9 9

Methodology to DC Calculations

11

Methodology

1. Identify amount, type and location of growth 2. Identify servicing needs to accommodate growth 3. Identify capital costs to provide services to meet the needs 4. Deduct: i. Grants, subsidies and other contributions ii. Benefit to existing development iii. Statutory 10% deduction (soft services) iv. Amounts in excess of 10-year historical service calculation v. D.C. Reserve funds (where applicable) 5. Net costs then allocated between residential and non-residential benefit 6. Net costs divided by growth to calculate the D.C.

13

Council Resolution on Methodology

• When the D.C. by-law was passed in 2018, Council also passed the following resolution: • “That staff be directed to investigate new categories for non-residential development in the next complete Development Charges Study that takes into consideration the amount of overall use of water/wastewater based on the potential number of customers/visitors, employees and activities on site that may result in a higher consumption of water/wastewater.” • Note: Based on existing D.C. by-laws throughout the Province, no other municipality has calculated on this basis.

14

Page 12 of 201 8/23/2019

Strengths & Limitations to Council’s Requested Methodology

Strengths: • Ability to vary the charge to potentially better reflect the required infrastructure needs for different types of development activities. Limitations: • Current master plans do not embrace this methodology. Master Plans would need to be updated which would result in a much longer study process. • Assistance of an engineering firm would be required to gain insights to be able to estimate growth based on these parameters. • Potential changes of use in the future from a low water user to a high-water user or vice versa may result in issues with the sizing of pipes, storage, pumping stations, and/or treatment capacity being over or undersized. • Basing water/wastewater needs on number of employees/visitors may not reflect the actual consumption or discharge of water/wastewater. • Ability to justify at an L.P.A.T. hearing. 15

Non-Residential Rate Categories

• The Township has historically calculated one rate for all forms of non- residential development. • Calculating separate non-residential rates for specific categories of development may better align the charge to the type of development. • These calculations can be easily undertaken as growth information will be available to undertake these types of differentiated charges. • Commonly differentiated charges include: • Retail/non-retail charges • Typically the retail charge is higher than the non-retail (industrial, institutional, non-retail commercial) charge • Industrial/Non-industrial charges • Typically, the non-industrial charge is higher than the industrial charge • Industrial/Commercial/Institutional charges

Consideration of Area Rating

17

Consideration of Area Rating

Legislated requirements as per Bill 73: • Requires that municipalities must examine the use of area- rating but is not mandatory to impose. • While there are no specific “prescribed” services, this section identified that the background study must consider this to reflect the different needs for different areas.

18

9

Page 14 of 201 8/23/2019

Area Rating vs. Municipal-wide – General Perspectives • Municipal-wide: • Charges collected for a service can be spent anywhere throughout the municipality (or service area) without restriction. • A wider collection area results in a larger pool of D.C. revenue that can be used to fund growth-related projects sooner or to minimize the need for debt. • Fewer appeals to the D.C. by-law from developers occur, given their preference for the municipal-wide approach to funding growth-related infrastructure. • Collecting funds in one area and spending in another area may provide a perceived inequity as a result of the geographic separation.

19

Area Rating vs. Municipal-wide – General Perspectives • Area Specific: • Defining D.C. collection by individual areas ensures investment of those funds is in the areas where development is occurring. • Infrastructure that is to be funded from D.C.s may be delayed in areas where growth is not occurring. • Higher charge in one area vs. another may impact competitiveness where housing sales prices are similar for competing areas. • Area-specific D.C.s may encourage more development in built-up areas through increased densities and infill as D.C. rates may be lower in these areas. • Area-specific D.C.s increase the administrative requirements for the City related to accounting and reporting purposes (e.g. WW - one pooled service vs. many separate service areas). • Area-specific D.C.s can also increase the complexity where there are differing charges based on the services applicable and/or service areas that a development is located • Area-specific D.C.s may require additional debenture financing as funds are isolated to individual areas thus removing the ability to pool or access other D.C. contributions. 20

10

Page 15 of 201 8/23/2019

Area Rating vs. Municipal-wide – General Perspectives

• Non-Water/Wastewater/Stormwater Services • Services require a 10-year service standard to be calculated to establish an upper ceiling on the amount which can be collected from development. In the case of area specific charges, the average service standard is multiplied by the growth within the area to establish the area specific ceiling which significantly reduces the total revenue recoverable. • Area specific charges potentially cause equity issues transitioning from Municipal-wide to area specific. • Many services provided are not restricted to one specific area and are often used by all residents (e.g. roads, parks, recreation, library, fire, etc.).

21

Understanding the Growth Forecast

22

11

Page 16 of 201 8/23/2019

D.C.A. Requirements for Growth

• Several sections of the Act provide the framework for establishing the growth forecast: • S.5(1)5 – “The anticipated amount, type and location of development, for which development charges can be imposed, must be estimated” • S. 5(1)2 – “The increase in the need for service attributable to the anticipated development must be estimated for each service” • S. 5(1)4 – limited to a 10 year planning horizon for all services except Water, Wastewater, Stormwater, Services related to a highway, Fire, Police (and Toronto-York subway extension within Toronto)

23

D.C.A. Requirements for Growth

• The DCA speaks to “development” not population and employment growth (in certain instances you may have unit growth but no population growth) • Growth forecast can be longer for certain services, for example: • 20 years • To Official Plan build out • To servicing capacity (say for water or wastewater) • Other forecast • In certain instances, services may only be provided in certain areas…the forecast for that service would only be for that service area (e.g. for water, wastewater or storm)

24

Centre Wellington Growth Forecast

• For purposes of this presentation, the 2018 growth forecast will be shown however, the draft 2019 Growth Forecast will be available in the coming months for review. • This D.C. study will be focused on updating Services Related to a Highway, Water Services, Wastewater Services, Fire Protection Services, along with related studies. The time horizon for the growth forecast will be aligned with the 2041 growth forecasts used for the recent master plans (i.e. Water Supply, Fire, Transportation and Active Transportation) • Note that County lands may be included in the growth forecast based on further discussions related to existing plans/potential growth plans over the forecast period. 25

Local Services

29

Local Service Policies

• New section 59.1(1) and (2) of the Act “No Additional Levies” - prohibits municipalities from imposing additional payments or requiring construction of a service not authorized under the D.C.A. (updated as per Bill 73)

• Due to Bill 73, “no additional levies” clause, a Local Service Policy is required to be developed and approved by Council, through the D.C. study process, to clearly define what developers would be required to do as part of their development agreements versus what would be included in the D.C.

• Subdivision Agreement Conditions - the Act provides coverage of such agreements to include “local services related to a plan of subdivision or within the area to which the plan relates”.

• Items to consider may include; collector & arterial roads, intersection improvements & traffic signals, streetlights & sidewalks, Bike Routes/Bike Lanes/Bike Paths/Multi-Use Trails/Naturalized Walkways, Noise Abatement Measures, Land dedications/easements, Water, Wastewater, Stormwater, and Park requirements. 30

Approach to the Calculation of the Charge

33

Capital Costs

• The current Capital Cost definition in the D.C.A. include: • Acquire land or interest in land • Improve land • Acquire, lease, construct or improve buildings, facilities and structures (includes furniture and equipment) • Equipment and rolling stock • Capital component of a lease for the above • Circulation materials for Libraries • Studies for above including a D.C. Background Study • Interest on money borrowed to pay for the above • Both “hard costs” (e.g. construction costs, equipment purchases, mobilization costs, etc.) and “soft costs” (e.g. design, project management, surveying, contingencies etc.) are eligible capital costs. • Note: often all soft costs are not identified in master plans. Adjustments to include these costs will be made accordingly to include in the D.C. capital

costs. 34

Service Standards

• Service Standard measure provides a ceiling on the level of the charge which can be imposed • Previously (D.C.A., 1989), provided that the D.C. be “no higher than” the highest level attained over the previous 10-year period. • D.C.A., 1997 provides that the ceiling is based on the “average of the past 10 years” • Impacts – generally lowers collection levels and may provide for spiral downwards if municipality does not keep up with construction of services • The D.C.A. requires a detailed review of service levels and requires consideration of both “quality” and “quantity” measures • This involves reviewing capital inventories in detail over past 10 years • The following provides for the information provided in 2014 D.C. study for fire stations. The 2014 square footages have been brought forward through 2018 and the 2014 values have been indexed to 2019 values

The Planning Coordinator indicated notice was mailed to prescribed persons, agencies and public bodies on June 13, 2019. A copy of the notice was advertised in the Wellington Advertiser on June 13, 2019. She confirmed the requirement for giving notice was completed on June 13, 2019.

Steven Wright, applicant, provided an overview of the proposed development stating it is an improvement to the existing landscape and will respect adjacent woodlots and wetlands. The development is a product of a Developer/Builder who is invested in this community and the development will allow for continued local employment opportunities. S. Wright stated estate lots are highly sought after and there is demand in the community to offer this type of housing.

Astrid Clos, planning consultant for the applicant, provided an overview of the zoning amendment application stating the existing use of the property includes turkey barns and a gravel pit. The property is within the Hamlet area in the County of Wellington’s Official Plan, which permits residential development. The plan consists of 40 residential lots on 2 new streets but will not provide direct access to JM Quarrie Drive.

Katie Fallis, area resident, expressed concern with the development and indicated approval of the subdivision is premature until sufficient studies have been completed. She expressed concerns including traffic impacts, pedestrian/bicycle connectivity between the existing and proposed subdivisions, lack of a neighbourhood park, financial impact of the development on taxpayers, creation of a bedroom community and lack of overall planning for Inverhaugh.

Mayor Linton asked if anyone else present would like to speak in favour or in opposition to the application.

Ken Musselman, area resident, stated there are 18 lots proposed that back onto his property with a proposed fence, which he believes is not sufficient and a buffer area should be required. Mr. Mussleman stated the location of the subdivision is good as its not taking away any significant agricultural land.

Ross McKenzie, area resident, stated the repurposing of the property is good, however expressed concern with the growing size of Inverhaugh as a hamlet. Mr. McKenzie stated the movement of people within Inverhaugh is constrained by lack of sidewalks and connections to existing subdivisions.

Mayor Linton provided Astrid Clos with an opportunity to respond to the comments and concerns expressed. Ms. Clos stated Council will not be making a decision as this meeting. She further added the Township has required a number of studies, which are being reviewed by Township staff or consultants. Mr. Musselman has meet with the applicant and they understand his concerns. Fencing is proposed to mitigate any concerns. Agricultural warning clauses in the Purchase and Sale agreement will be used. A. Clos provided clarified the property is entirely within the hamlet area and is not an expansion. Sidewalks are proposed on one side of the development and there is a proposed cut-fill balance on the site.

Mayor Linton asked for questions from members of Council. Councillor McElwain stated the existing noise berm associated with the aggregate operation is insufficient and any future berm should be higher to mitigate against the noise of the heavy equipment being used in the gravel pit. He further stated he is concerned with the hydrogeological and traffic impact studies and questioned if they considered the existing Swan Creek Subdivision. Councillor McElwain stated the Township’s strategic plan state the creation of complete communities, however Inverhaugh has been developed inconsistently.

Councillor Kitras questioned the current number of homes in Inverhaugh and how the 2 new developments will impact the hamlet. He expressed concern with the lack of a park and pedestrian/bike traffic. The County of Wellington needs to consider bike traffic and widening the shoulders to allow for bicycle lanes into Elora via Wellington Road 21.

Councillor MacRae questioned if the buffer between the development and Mr. Musselman’s property could include trees along the proposed fence and suggested looking into how the storm water management ponds could be integrated into the trail system. He expressed concerns regarding how recommendations in various studies will be implemented to include the restriction on housing types and water usage for residential pools.

Councillor Dunsmore stated not having a park in Inverhaugh is a concern.

Councillor Foster stated the traffic needs to be evaluated on Sideroad 4 and Wellington Road 21.

There being no further questions from Council, Mayor Linton indicated any comments can be forwarded to the Clerk, 1 MacDonald Square,

To: Mayor Linton and Members of Council Report: PLN2019-48 Prepared By: Mariana Iglesias, Senior Planner Date: 26 Aug 2019

RE: Partial Demolition at Listed Property – 210 Chalmers Street, Elora (Front and Side Porches)

Recommendation: THAT the Council of the Township of Centre Wellington approve the partial demolition request for the uncovered front porch and enclosed side porch and associated steps at the listed property municipally known as 210 Chalmers Street, Elora, in the Township of Centre Wellington;

AND THAT the property municipally known as 210 Chalmers Street, Elora, remain on the Township’s Municipal Heritage Register.

Report: The owner of 210 Chalmers Street, Elora, has provided a notice of intent to demolish the uncovered front porch and enclosed side porch addition and associated steps on the property in accordance with the notice requirements of the Ontario Heritage Act. The property is listed on the Township’s Municipal Register of Cultural Heritage Properties but is not designated. The owner has requested demolition due to poor structural condition and plans to build a new addition on the other side of the house. A photo of the porches is attached to this report for reference.

Since the subject property is listed on the Register, Council can either allow the demolition, or, propose to designate the property pursuant to Part IV of the Ontario Heritage Act to stop the demolition. The Heritage Committee has evaluated the application to demolish based on Ontario Regulation 9/06 "Criteria for Determining Cultural Heritage Value or Interest". The Regulation outlines three main categories: design, historical and contextual values. The reason for the listing of the subject property on the Municipal Register was due to the potential heritage value of the main dwelling as seen from the street. Planning staff and the heritage committee are of the opinion that demolition of the porches does not negatively impact the property’s heritage value.

Page 53 of 201 It is our recommendation that the porches be permitted to be demolished, but that the property remain on the Register due to the potential heritage value of the main dwelling.

Page 107 of 201 Report to Council

To: Mayor Linton and Members of Council Report: CS2019-11 Prepared By: Pat Newson, Managing Director of Date: 26 Aug 2019 Community Services

RE: Bissell Park Multi-Use Pad MacDonald Project

Recommendation: THAT the Council of the Township of Centre Wellington approve the revision of the MacDonald Trust Fund Application for the Bissell Park Upgrades for the multi use surface, submitted by The Elora Rockers and the Elora Lions Club, to amend the recipients of the funding to include a third recipient: Keating Construction Inc.

AND FURTHER THAT as a condition of receiving the MacDonald Trust Funding, the Elora Rockers, The Elora Lions Club and Keating Construction Inc. provide to the Township a Joint Venture Agreement between all three recipients that reflects the relationship as joint recipients.

Summary: At the June 18, 2018 Council Meeting, the Elora Rockers and the Elora Lions Club were awarded $350.000 toward a project to upgrade the multi-surface pad at Bissell Park. This report provides the rational for staff's recommendation to revise the recipient group for this application/project.

Report: Staff received direction from Council to create a funding agreement for each of the eight successful recipients of MacDonald Trust Fund. The authority to sign each agreement was delegated to the Managing Director of Corporate Services. Staff are returning to Council for a request to amend the recipient group on this specific agreement. Through meetings with the recipient, it has been made evident to staff that Keating Construction Inc is a partner with the Lions and Rockers on this application and this project, and should have been included in the original application submitted to the Township. This was an administrative oversight by the applicant. It is the intention of the Rockers and Lions to use the resources of Keating Construction to build the project, and take advantage of in-kind donations through Keating Construction as part of the funding formula presented in the original application. This was the intent of the original application.

Page 108 of 201 Altering the recipient on this agreement does not change the intent of the application or project applied for, however Keating Construction Inc. as a recipient, has the resources, insurance requirements, in-kind contribution resourcing, and technical expertise to construct the project. Staff recommend altering the recipient to include Keating Construction Inc. so that the MacDonald Funding Agreement can be finalized and signed in order for this project to begin.

This project is unique to the other MacDonald Funding Agreements because the recipient is taking over the site to perform demolition and construction of a new multi- surface pad y at the Township. Bissell The park Park, a property owned b improvements will become property of the Township once the project is complete. The recipients are responsible for the budget, construction, and care and control of the site during demolition and construction. For the other MacDonald projects that involve improvements to properties owned by the Township, it is the Township that is taking responsibility for the construction and site control. For the Bissell Park improvements, the Elora Rockers and Elora Lions Club do not have the capacity to sign off on the liability and construction requirements without having Keating Construction as a named recipient on the application for the project. It is evident from the original application, signed by Tom Keating (Elora Rockers) and Jim Keating (Elora Lions Club), that Keating Construction was an implied partner with the Elora Rockers and Elora Lions Club. For Council's reference, the application submitted by the Rockers and Lions is attached to this report.

The requirement to have all three recipients provide a Joint Venture Agreement to the Township will provide for documentation to formally revise their application, and provide to the Township proper documentation of this change. This Joint Venture Agreement will be referenced as part of the MacDonald Funding Agreement.

Financial Implications: $350,000 was awarded to the recipients for this project to demolish the old and reconstruct a new multi-use pad at Bissell Park. The recipients are responsible to ensure that the project does not exceed their available funds of the MacDonald funding and project donations.

Consultation: This report was prepared in consultation with Dan Wilson, Managing Director of Corporate Services and with consultations from SV Law.

Page 111 of 201 A proposal for an upgrade to the multi-use recreational surface located at Bissell. Park in the heart of the Village of Elora

Submitted to the Township of Centre Wellington by The Elora Rockers Association and The Elora Lions Club for considerationin applicationto the MacDonald Trust Fund

January 30, 2018

Page 112 of 201 Introduction The MacDonald Family have beenrelentlesssupporters ofthe Elora Community Centre and all that our arena facility represents towards active livingand community. This proposal from The Elora Rockers Association and The Elora Lions Club would continue that legacy.

The Elora Rockers and the Elora Lionsare coming together with this proposalto build on the success and support in previous years towards BissellPark. The Elora Lions have been strong supporters of BissellPark with the construction of both the picnic pavilion and the boardwalk. And The Elora Rockers began fundraising towards the BissellPark Transformation Project in 2016 and made a presentation anddonation to the Township in 2017. This common interestin BissellPark has brought the two groups together with a collaborative joint proposal. For over 30 years volunteers haveessentially provided and maintaineda recreational surfacein BissellPark in Elorafor year round informal community activities accessible to all citizens. The formula of free informal multi—use‘year round activity accessible 24 hours a day continues to be successful. This approach enhances the quality of life for citizens of Elora,the Township of Centre Wellington (TCW)and manyfriends and visitors to the area. This multi—usefacility is currentlyperched on the foundational ruins of the T.E. Bissellimplement factorybuildings from 1930.

Due to its year round heavy use, this recreational area currently requires refurbishing and renewal to remaina visible crown jewel in the center of Elora. A broad communitybased legacy piece for the MacDonald Trust Fund to potentially support — along with direct and in kind funding from local contractors and supporters.

For consideration by TCW Council,this application proposes a reasonable facilities upgrade for the recreational surface in BissellPark. This facility is a working vision that has already proven its merit for our community year after year

Page 113 of 201 Qualification 1.1.1 — Based in the Village, and accessible to all TCW residents

The proposed upgrade would continue to be centered in the heart of the village, be accessible under the AODA and easily accessible to residents of Centre Wellington and area of all ages and genders and capabilities, at all times.

The renewed recreational surface in BissellPark location will be a widely visible source of pride and all year round use by citizens of the former Village of Elora. Allpeople driving in Elora on County Road 18 (aka Mill-StEast) will notice the recreational surface in Bissell Park.

Allpeople who walk through BissellPark (about 150 people per day) willsee and hear the activities on and around the recreational surface. And from volunteer records over a million participants have directly benefitted from centrally located single slab of asphalt to date. Through these multiple exposures this facility touches everyone in the Village of Elora and area. Many visitors to the area take part in year round activities on this surface.

An updated surface as specified in the detailed proposal willonly build on the success to date. A new foundation and walkways and lighting and improved design will make it more accessible, safe, and efficient. '

2 There is also the economic impact of maintaining house resale prices when access to open informal recreation is easily available. The location of the surface is central to the village.

Observations by volunteers for the past 25 years confirm the accessibility by » walker, wheelchair,four wheel moped,walkingfbicycle and car. Parents and guardians routinely dropoff all ages of surface users in all weather and easily make arrangements to return for pick~up. Often the users just stay longer and they find their own wayhome as the activities run on into thelate hours of the clayor night. There is ample parking and vehicle accessibility provided by existing upgrades and foresight by the Township.

There are no curbs or ledges or not at heightobstacles planned in the upgrade proposal that would block access to the entrance to the surface from the main BissellPark area. The leadershipcommittee have access to accessibility professionals that willvet the proposal and advise the construction.

Page 114 of 201 In Appendix 1 are a sampling of the local activities that have taken place on the recreational surface. This not ”just another ice rink”. Appendix 1 demonstrates a diverse impact to the Township, continues to build economicimpact, and shows a sense of pride and improve the quality of life in the villageand township. These activities have occurred over the last few years on the recreational and leisure surface at BissellPark based on directobservations from the BissellPark recreational surface volunteers. There are many more not listed. Howltomeasure the impact of the recreational surface facility? Volunteers are present every day of the year at the BissellPark surface.Observing the benefit in

calories burned, friendship, diversity,and joy. These are daily occurrences — and occur year-round.

The volunteers keep track of compliments from participants on the suitability of the ice surface, rink cleanliness and maintenance of the facility. There have been

over.1OO compliments and constructive suggestions this winterseason alone — from young children, teenagers, and adults. The.Bissell RinkFacebook page has had many friends andhits. Every single day in thelate fall andwinter the volunteers get asked — "How's the ice at Bissell?”. The surface has trulybecome a positive phenomenon in the village and surrounding area.

Withan updated facility all of the activities and more would be safer, have reduced liability risk, be easier to conduct and have broader seasons of use. Hence more potential for interaction of an even more diverse group of citizens. Informal mixing of gender orientations, skilllevels, broad diverse backgrounds and ages leads to more tolerance and confidence. This has been observedmany, many times over by surface volunteers. This is where people just get along without rules or supervision.Disagreementsoccur, however they don't last long and solutions are worked out by all ages. Only a low level of technology is needed for all the informal recreational surface activities. Physicalexercise and movement in all types of weather is the norm. Motion is lotion, especially with no rules or worries.

A larger, safer, more accessible, and with tried—and-true professional construction willexpand the use of the facility, add more visiblepride, build the

/‘Ax

Page 115 of 201 interaction of users, and improve the safety and quality of the fitness andleisure experience to our citizens.

One may certainlyask, ”The surface has pretty much workedfor over 30 years — why change?”

A few reasons:

Safety. The broken cement piers that edge out into the playing surfacefrom the T.E Bissellfactory ruins pose a safety hazard. Volunteers have tended to many children and adults over the years with cuts and concussions from impact with these piers. There have been fiveminor incidents so far this 2017-18 season. Consideration is needed for a facility with fencingto stop pucks and other items from striking people watchingor preparing to play (e.g. putting shoes or skates or otherequipment on). The boards are poorly constructed and are a hazard to users as the metalstrapping has sharp and damaged edges that can catch on skin or clothing. And children are getting splinters fromthe deteriorating plywood. Three unexpected falls have been caused in the 2018 skating season due to the strapping — observed by volunteers. The lighting of the facility wouldbe modestly upgraded to meet the needs of the entire surface. These items reduce liability and risk.

Accessibility. The surface and entrances are wearing out. Uneven, and broken down asphalt is not an easy surface to access, to playon, land on, lie down on, or to roll wheels on. Accessibility for mobilityimpaired citizens can be markedly improved. Flatter entrances,walkways to the surface, protected areasin the design, less steep inclines, and accessible entrances and resting areas are required. Currently there is no accessibility between the gazebo, surface and the new washrooms. Volunteers are becoming discouraged. Maintaininga deteriorating uneven surface with poorly constructed loose boards with square corners, unwanted drainage from the ice, and the poor resiliency of warm asphaltto weather change

— is difficult and more and more time consuming.

Volunteers work daily in the very early hours. With the condition of the surface, removing snow and debris and cleaning of the surface is difficult with a loader or blower or shovel. The deteriorating surface and boards catch and abruptly stop a

Page 116 of 201 front end loader and snow blower and shovel.The boards were poorly constructed with exposed metal strapping that stops loadersand shovels abruptly from cleaning the edges of the surface. Hence the surface edges cannot be maintained.

A level larger smooth concrete surface with round corners and smooth boards would be maintained in less time than the current old surface. Equipment can navigate a larger surface more safely and efficiently. Given the demand on this centrally located public facility an upgrade to the surface and boards needs to be .

' considered. l

Modern dasher boards would be more efficient to be taken down and put back into place - if necessaryfor special events. All ages need to participateat the same time. Due-to the popularity and the numbers of people using the surface, all ages are having difficulty in participating together with different activities. A complementary area to provide safe use by very young or very old needs to be considered. A relatively inexpensiveouter ring to the surface is proposed. This would provide a safe walking and skating area outside the enclosed area (see proposed diagram). This would provide a type ofinexpensive skating path concept. A concrete surface, not black hot asphalt. It needs to be larger for broader use, and level and more at grade for drainage and freezing and heaving foundation issues. This willrequire removal of the old asphalt surface and cement ruins, and some excavation and levelling.

The ice surface season used to be longer (126 days on average in the 1990's). The average since 2005 has been 91 days of good ice. The shoulder seasons where the temperatures hover around freezing are currently not well utilized. This could be extended with the addition of coolant piping in an upgraded white—was.hed concrete surface. Considerationfor passive cooling byjust adding coolant material alone to the concrete surface piping (no compressor) would extend the ice season.

The needs of the community continueltochange. More people need more informal open air places to gather without time constraints. As the downtown of Elora goes through significant changes there may be more visitors andresidents

Page 117 of 201 looking for quick — on demand casual exercise opportunities that a larger more appealing and safe facility in BissellPark would provide.

The Township would likelybe faced with upgrading the facility in the future — this proposal moves this idea from a strict TCW capital cost to more of a community initiative.

Efficiency. The upgrade would use less water, take less time to maintain, provide more use opportunities and be safer and even more accessible to participants and organizations. ‘Theproposal complements the existing TCW investments in Bissell Park and the philosophy of the TCW Community Initiated Projects Policy‘2015.

The gazebo would not need to be flooded and maintained as a ”kiddy rink” surface. It was not designed as such and willwear out sooner with continued water and ice around its support posts.

Overall in many respects, the new surface would provide overall more efficiency for township staff and volunteers.

Better use of township and volunteer investments. The Lions gazebo could be better lighted and connected (walkway) to the upgraded surface. Thiswould make better use and accessibility of the gazebo for a preparation area and

gathering and rest areas for participants. ‘

Awalkway to the new washroom andutility building from the gazebo and surface area would make the building more useful and accessible to participants and volunteers. ..

And access to the boardwalk and path wouldbe improved and accessible. The Farmers Market could have an additional area to work from and in future, potentially an outdoor covered site away from adverse elements; The Lions boardwalk, and the footbridge investments are all complemented by this proposal.

Opportunities for community service. These would be significant as informal recreational activities grow and _become more diverse. Students can attain community volunteer hours associatedwith the facility (as they do to a limited extent now). The focus for the foreseeable future is to have the facility run and ' maintained by volunteers and local business as it has done for over 25 years.

Page 118 of 201 For example: Deboers Equipment has donated over 2700 days of new equipment rental free of charge for snow removal for the winter rinksurface at BissellPark. There would be additional opportunities for local business to be involved in equipment and facility, logistics, and maintenance donations (e.g. shovels, edging equipment, bleachers, lighting, fencing, painting, railings, signage, and ramps etc.).

Merit and achievement opportunities. These would be numerous given the number of activities that would occur at the facility. Localvolunteers are many and they can relive many pressures on township staff and resources. Localand relatively unorganized leagues and competitions willonly increase at a visible appealing, safe and accessible upgraded facility.

Page 119 of 201 Qualification1.1.2 — Serving needs not alreadyaddressed in the Township

The focus of this facility would be open air, no cost informal recreational and leisure activities, unsupervised, with minimal time constraints, that are as diverse as they are multi—agedand accessible. Alloccurring in a safe enclosed area. As such, this type of centrally located open air activity is not available elsewhere around the village of Elora.

This is a formula that is already being proven as successful at the BissellPark surface for over 30 years. BissellPark itself is a mecca of motion and activity by the majestic Grand River. This upgraded facility would only add to the beauty, and pride in Eloraand the use of BissellPark overall. The list in Appendix 1 indicatesthe diversity of activities that have been held on _ the surface at Bissell Park. There are very limited, if any similar areas for these to occur elsewhere in Elora. People of all ages need informal, unscheduled, on their own time, opportunities to be active.’ The surface at BissellPark provides just that at no direct cost and without being tied to any digital technology.

Qualification1.1.3 — Documented support In Appendix 4 are notes ofsupport. The Elora Rockers are providing leadership to this proposal and have many community connections including: communityleaders, sports, volunteers, organizations, and a network of local contractors. Contractors who canrally to partially offset the costs of this project. Many members of the Elora Rockersare also members in the Centre Wellington Contractors Association who is another valuable supporter of this project.

Also of note are the El_oraLions who have already invested in BissellPark. The _ Elora Lions gazebo will be integral to this project as a shelter for preparation and recovery from activitieson the recreation surface. Down the road this gazebo could be converted to a warming area for participants in recreational activitiesin ’ colder months. The Elora Lions are also invested in BissellPark as they have constructed a widely used board walk through out the Park. The Elora Lions are also putting a cash donationfor the facility in this proposal.

I

T Proposed Projectand Budget

Overview

The leadership committee for this facilityproposal have experience managing and administrating multi—milliondollar capital projects, businesses, and grants in both government and non—government settings. This experience is reflected in a fair and reasonable proposal. Project statementof proposed scope, cost and timing This proposal is for an upgraded outdoor recreation and leisure facility located at the current site of the BissellPark recreational surface in BissellParkin the heart of the village of Elora. The focus of the facility would be for open air, informal recreational and leisure activities, unsupervised, with minimal time constraints, that are as diverseas they are multi—agedand accessible.

The project cost would require a $350k allotment from the MacDonald trust fund, as well as $125k from other sources of donation, fundraising, and in—kind

contributions — for a total estimated capital project cost of $475k.

It is anticipated that the project would have a 2 year time frame to full _ completion. Construction could be conducted in a Sept—December period.If optimal weather and project trade co—ordinationoccurs, there may only minimal interruption in the winter/summeruses for the basic surface.

Operating costs would be minimal. These would follow the pattern already established over the past years between the BissellRinkvolunteers and local businesses, and the TCW. This model has proven sustainable for the past 25 years for this facility and the upgraded facility as proposed would be no different. It is

being planned and designed with that precise goal in mind — to not overreach on

~ the vision create a practical, resilient, and proven facility model — and be financially sustainable.

Many small communities in Ontario have an outdoor rink surface exactly similar to the one in this proposal (e.g. MacDouga|| Township, Tay Township, Carling Township, Parry Sound, and Conestogo for a few examples).

10

Page 121 of 201 The project would be overseen and administrated by an implementation team with leadership from the Elora Rockers and the Elora Lions organizations and proposed membership from the TCW. A description of the lead organizations of _ this proposal is in Appendix 2. The implementation team wouldalso oversee the appropriate communications

related to this project — fully respecting the needs of the TCW. A communications plan would be developed by the implementation team. Communityconcerns and suggestions would be promptly responded to directly with the appropriate follow- up actions taken.

The implementation team would also complete the appropriate notes, signage, and ceremonyof appreciation and thanks to acknowledge and thank the donations and contributions to the completion of this project. Facility description

See Appendix3 fora draft sketch of thefacility. Proposed features

(Note: the proposeddesign details may need to -beadjusted by the advice of the implementation team and the degreeof success of the application process)

— A total footprint site of 105ft wide by 190 ft. long - running inthe same orientation and centered in the same location as the existing asphalt ruins site;

- A finished concrete surface on newfootings — to be white—washedperiodically;

- Coolant piping installed for immediate passive use. Down the road ifwarranted some active periodic use with a renewable energy compressor couldbe considered if operating costs werefeasible. (Consultation with two other townships revealed that they made a mistake by not having the foresight to install piping in their outdoor rinks);

— Capped dasher boards (clear see-through or standard construction as in the Elora Arena and many other small community outdoor surfaces. Details willbe determinedby the implementation team.)

— An inner recreational surface with dimensions of 85’x170’ (smaller than the current Elora Arena surface)

11

Page 122 of 201 — An 8 foot wide extension of the concrete surface outside of hockey boards around thefull oval for free skating, elder skating, strollers,walkers, wheelchairs, walking and running (an inexpensive ”skate—path”concept). This would have a safety railing;

— New 6 to 8 foot protective fencing at each end and corners of the interior surface;

- The existing high-quality basketball nets would be re—orientedto the sides of surface to reduce the damage they are currently receiving from pucks, balls, rings, snow removal equipment, and vandalism. This would allow a larger playing surface for 2-court basketball;

— Double doors to allow machinery and vehicles if needed. These double doors at the south/eastcorner of the facility would be designed for year-round access and durability;

—Participant door at north/eastcorner area that is accessible and durable and safe;

— New lighting for the free skate rim, the new paths, and the gazebo;

— New walkways to washroom building and gazebo from the upgraded surface. These would be durable enough for clearing with a snow blower;

_—Completedrepairs to the Elora Lions Gazebo;

— Landscaping will improve grades for accessibility and any tree removed in the construction will be replaced by 5 new trees.

— The proposal is not in the flood plain of the Grand River.

The proposal would call for a local construction process to include design and engineering as well as construction. This would utilize services routinely used within these contractors. The implementation team would oversee and ensure the requirements of the TCW (such as registration, contractor of record, -liability etc.).

The Elora Rockers has since grown to over 75 alumni and players, From the last two years they have ear marked the BissellPark multi—usesurface upgrade to receive $10k.

BissellPark Mu|ti—use Recreational Surface Upgrade — MacDonald Trust Fund Application

Dea r TCW,

This is a note of support for the proposed upgrade to the recreational surface at BissellPark in Elora. This is a proposal for an upgraded facility that would be used year—round,be accessible to all citizens in Elora and area, nicely complement existing townshipfacilities, and build on an existing successful model of recreation and leisure in Bissell Park.

Riverfest has beena very successful cultural festival in Eloraand willbe celebrating its 10th anniversary. The proposed upgrade to the recreational surface in BissellPark would be an excellent improvement for a 2"“stage area for the festival. This would help build the community benefits of Riverfest in the heart of Elora and area;

Riverfest Elorawillcontinue to support the activities that enhance BissellPark. We look forward to working with Dave Alvesand the group toward this wonderful goal.

Sincerely, - , f D4/xr?s‘TM9-l"\:’ Shawn Watters

BissellPark Multi-use Recreational Surface Upgrade — MacDonaldTrust Fund Application

Dear Community Services AdvisoryCommittee,

This is a note ofsupport for the proposed upgrade to the recreational surface at BissellPark in Elora.

My wife Barb and l and family have lived in Elorafor 38 years and we have maintainedthe BissellPark rink for the past 26 years. We were Citizens ofthe Year for volunteerism in the community, minor sports, school council, and the work with the BissellPark Rinkin 1997. it is always wonderful to be thanked as a volunteer —there are of "course many others who have dedicated much more volunteer -time than us in our wonderfulcommunity.

Many hours are spent watching and talking to the diversity of participants in BissellPark. It has become a real centerpiece to the Village.

However now it could use some renewal. The proposed upgrade looks to be a reasonable and creative idea for a year—round,accessible, efficient, used by all facility, and a perfect complement the wonderful existing township facilitiesin BissellPark. It would build on everyone’s success at BissellPark to date. This includes the Township, the Riverfest festival, the work of the Elora Lions and many many other year—round groups, and participants. in the past two years I havehad the dedicated assistance of long time Eloraresident Tim Grier. Tim is a retired writer for the CBC. Young Tim Anderson — who is currently maintaining the Beatty Park rink- has also helped at BissellPark. As long as our bodies are goodto go — we are committed to continuing our work at BissellPark.

Sincerely, F

DearCouncil — Township of Centre Wellington,

This is a note of support for the proposed upgrade to the recreational surface upgrade at BissellPark in

Elora.Thisis a proposal for an upgraded ' facilitythat would be used year-round, be accessible to all citizens in Elora and area, nicely complement existing township facilities,and build on an existing successful model of recreation and leisure in BissellPark. The community is very appreciative of the opportunity for applications to the MacDonald Trust Fund. However we recognize that with the breadth of contractor expertise resident in the Eloraarea, there may be a further opportunity to contribute to the Bissellmulti—usesurface upgrade. Ifthe BissellPark multi—usesurface upgrade proposal is successful, our organization would commit to working with the implementation team for the project to explore ways to offset the project costs either th rough.providing volunteer labour or approaching our supplier members for support on materials. The BissellPark multi—use surface upgrade is a worthwhile community project for the TCW to support with the MacDonaldTrust Fund.

Sincerely,

To: Mayor Linton and Members of Council Report: CS2019-10 Prepared By: Pat Newson, Managing Director of Date: 26 Aug 2019 Community Services

RE: Amending Agreement Victoria Park Elora Licence Agreement

Recommendation: THAT the Council of the Township of Centre Wellington Council authorizes the Mayor and Clerk to execute an Amending Agreement between the Township and Grand River Conservation Authority (GRCA) for the Licencing Agreement for Victoria Park (Elora) lands.

Summary: In 2010 GRCA and the Township executed an exclusive licence agreement to occupy and use the Lands commonly referred to as Victoria Park Elora. An Amending Agreement has been prepared to update the terms of the original agreement. Both GRCA and The Township are desirous of continuing the arrangement under the terms of the Maintenance Agreement from 2010 with these amendments.

Report: Item 1. Schedule A defines the "Lands" of the licence agreement. This requires amending to accurately reflect the "Lands" included as part of the licence agreement. Both the 2010 agreement and the Amending Agreement are attached to this report and Schedule A of each, depicts the land area revisions to the agreement. For reference there is a land description map attached to this report for the Victoria Park Elora lands that clarifies land ownership for the park.

Items 2&3. The minimum insurance requirement has been increased from $2 Million to $5 the reflects and parties both for standard acceptable an is which Million recommendation by the insurance providers.

Item 4. The Indemnity Clause has been updated to reflect that the GRCA does not own the lands adjacent to the water. The previous Indemnity Clause 6(d) of the agreement referenced "structures located in the waterway" which is inaccurate.. This was a requested change by the GRCA, and acceptable to the Township.

Page 134 of 201 Financial Implications: None

Consultation: Prepared in consultation with Matt Tucker, Manager of Parks & Facilities Operations.

Attachments: ● Signed Agreement 2010 ● Amending Agreement 2019 ● Land Descriptions for Victoria Park

To: Mayor Linton and Members of Council Report: COR2019-66 Prepared By: Satnam Chauhan, Municipal Law Date: 26 Aug 2019 Enforcement Officer

RE: By-law Enforcement Annual Report - 2018

Report: In April of 2018, the Township of Centre Wellington hired a full–time Municipal Law Enforcement of education and awareness providing purposes the for Officer of Township By-laws, conducting inspections and investigations, responding to complaints, obtaining compliance, mediating and negotiating with residents with respect to possible by-law violations and providing property owners with a reasonable amount of time to bring by-law violations into compliance.

Previously, the Township’s Building Department provided by-law enforcement services while also being tasked with reviewing and inspecting building permits. Due to the timely nature of building permit inspections and reviews, there simply was not enough time for the building inspectors to keep up with their primary tasks and by-law enforcement. This resulted in a backlog of approximately 80 files. In addition to the 80 outstanding files from 2017, By-law Enforcement Services received 147 additional complaints in 2018.

Based on statistics obtained from the Townships records management program, staff has compiled a list of the amount and types of complaints registered and their respective outcomes. The statistics show a sharp incline in the increase of by-law related complaints as follows:

• In 2017, the Township received a total of 90 by-law related complaints • In 2018, the Township received a total of 147 by-law related complaints • In 2019, as of July 24th, the Township has received a total of 163 by-law related complaints.

As you can see, the department is on pace to exceed 200 by-law related complaints by the end of the 2019.

The charts in Appendix A illustrates that in 2018, the Township received 77 Property Standards Complaints; 37 Zoning By-law complaints; 8 Sign By-law complaints; 15 Fence By-law complaints; and 1 Site Alteration By-law complaint. Furthermore, a total of

Page 159 of 201 57 orders or notices were issued, and an additional 53 by-law related matters were brought into voluntary compliance through education, business cards with notes, and/or door knockers. Additionally, 5 charges were laid, 110 have been brought into compliance, and 27 complaints were non-violations requiring no enforcement.

In 2019, By-law Enforcement has continuously received increasing amounts of by-law related concerns. As of July 24th, Township Staff has received 163 complaints, a 110% increase on last year’s totals with 23 weeks remaining in the calendar year.

The Door Knocker program, established in late 2018, is a valuable tool providing an opportunity for the Officer to obtain compliance without the issuance of an order or notice. The program allows staff to outline items of non-compliance as per Township By-laws and provide an opportunity for property owners to repair/replace/remove items in an expeditious manner. Additionally, the Door Knocker program saved the Township added costs associated with drafting and mailing orders/notices via regular mail and registered mail. In some cases, an order or notice was required if the property owner failed to comply within the prescribed time listed on the door knocker.

Public Outreach has been an important part of providing residents with education and raising awareness with respect to Township By-laws. Staff has attended Key Project open houses where Township residents can meet and discuss by-law related concerns, and obtain information on what By-laws are enforceable within the Township. Partnering with the Guelph Humane Society for community events has also provided residents with an opportunity to understand the distinction between the two agencies and which agency to contact, depending on their concerns.

Challenges for By-Law Enforcement

In 2018, 52% of all complaints and in 2019, 57% of all complaints have been Property Standards related. The Property Standards By-law provides specific authorities under the Building Code Act which requires minimum prescribed times for non-emergency orders to bring Property Standards By-law contraventions into compliance. Under Section 15.3(1), an owner or occupant may appeal an Order to the Property Standards Appeals Committee within 14 days from being served the Order. Additionally, section 27(2) states, that if a Notice or Order is served by registered mail, the service shall be deemed to have been made on the fifth day after the day of mailing. As a result of these compliance requirements, a Property Standards Order must incorporate the 14 days to file an appeal of the Order, along with 5 days to be deemed served via registered mail. Should the property owner fail to comply with an Order, the next step in the enforcement process is issuing charges under the Building Code Act for failing to comply with an Order.

With respect to minor maintenance matters such as excessive grass growth, refuse and debris, stagnant water, yard waste, snow and ice removal, graffiti, overgrown trees, shrubs, and bushes, etc., providing a minimum of 19 days to comply with minor maintenance matters can be excessive and cause greater harm, prolong clean up

Page 160 of 201 efforts and the enjoyment of the neighbourhood. A Clean Yards By-law under the Municipal Act allows for municipalities to resolve minor maintenance matters in an expeditious manner, while ensuring compliance. There is no minimum amount of time required, failure to comply with an Order would permit the municipality to enter onto the property and remediate the contraventions, with all costs associated collected in the same manner as property taxes.

A Clean Yards by-law would resolve issues that would typically be common of a resident to be able resolve on their own in a timely manner, and prevent any appeals of the matter (as is permitted under the Property Standards By-law). The Township would be able to issue an Order with a 24 hour, 3 day, 7 day compliance, or another specified amount of time deemed appropriate by the By-law Officer. Failure to comply with the Order would result in the Township retaining a contractor to bring the items within the Order into compliance. Most municipalities have taken this approach to resolve these types of issues.

Future Projects As the Township’s population rises, so will the amount of by-law related complaints. Township staff is actively working on projects in anticipation of this growth. Some key projects include the following:

• Drafting By-laws: o As the community grows, there is a clear need to review, draft and adopt new by-laws to meet the growing demand of the Township. Staff has identified three key by-laws that can provide the Township with effective tools with respect to maintaining a beautiful and clean Township. A Clean Yards by-law will provide the Township with a tool to resolve minor maintenance matters in an expeditious manner, while a Littering By-law will address illegal dumping and littering on private and public properties, including highways. Together, these two by-laws will allow Township staff maintain a clean and beautiful Township. o Additionally, Township staff is currently working on a revised Animal Control By-law that is currently out for public consultation, a Public Tree By-law to protect trees on municipal property and a Noise By-law to name a few.

• Community Engagement: o Staff plan on organizing and participating in public events that promote clean living and community clean up days. Education and engagement will be at the forefront of all by-law advancements because an informed public will promote healthy and clean living. o Staff will also be creating Do’s and Don’ts educational material and videos to share with the public. This document will illustrate how to be a good neighbour and maintain compliance with Township by-laws.

• Parking Enforcement:

RE: By-law Enforcement Procedures

Summary: In April 2018, the Township hired a full time Municipal Law Enforcement Officer. The role of the Municipal Law Enforcement Officer is to raise awareness and provide education regarding Township by-laws, conduct inspections or investigations, respond to complaints in a timely manner, achieve voluntary compliance wherever possible, issues warnings, lay charges or issue tickets when other avenues have been exhausted or matters escalate. A copy of the Municipal Law Enforcement Officer's job description is attached.

Council adopts by-laws that establish, maintain and reflect community standards. These by-laws encourage residents and businesses to be responsible and respectful of their neighbours and contribute to the health, safety and vibrancy of our community. The goal is to provide a customer service approach to by-law enforcement with an emphasis on education and voluntary compliance.

Report: At the request of Council, staff has prepared by-law enforcement procedures pertaining to a) the filing of valid complaints, b) the inspection and/or investigation process, c) determining the best method of gaining compliance, and d) the prioritization of complaints. Other matters such as use and maintenance of a Township vehicle, uniforms, use of proper identification and record keeping have also been included.

Why Develop a By-law Enforcement Procedures? The development of by-law enforcement procedures allows Council to outline, in a public way, the goals of the Township's by-law enforcement program and to set clear expectations and standards for by-law enforcement. By-law enforcement procedures provide the framework for which Council and residents can evaluate the enforcement process and is a useful tool for training staff. Managing public expectations regarding enforcement with limited resources is a challenge and establishing by-law enforcement procedures can assist in managing these expectations while promoting transparency and accountability.

Page 166 of 201

What Should By-law Enforcement Procedures Consist of? Effective by-law enforcement procedures contain the following information, which are based on administrative fairness principles:

• is written in plain language, easily understood and applied; • sets out clearly what the policy is intended to achieve; • is flexible enough to cover a variety of circumstances where staff must exercise discretion; • does not fetter staff in exercising discretion by requiring them to take the same steps in each case, regardless of the circumstances, or discouraging individual responsibility for decisions; • sets out considerationsthe relevant staff should take into account when exercising discretion; • sets out its relationship to - and accurately reflects - governing legislation and by- laws; • is communicated to staff; • is readily available to the public (posted on website); and • is reviewed and revised as appropriate.

How to Apply By-law Enforcement Procedures? The Township of Centre Wellington has chosen to apply a customer service oriented approach with an emphasis on education and voluntary compliance when applying by- law enforcement. The municipality shall generally operate on a complaint based process with respect to by-law enforcement with the exception of a violation that poses an immediate threat to health and safety.

Properly applied by-law enforcement procedures should achieve three (3) goals:

• result in similar cases being treated in a similar way, • provide Township staff with guidance on, and limits to, exercising discretion, • provide the public with clarity and detail on how and why enforcement decisions are being made.

How do we Provide Information to the Public? Any by-law enforcement program is enhanced by clear and accessible public information. Making information available and accessible to the public helps to manage public expectations about enforcement. By-law enforcement information is most easily provided through the website and should include:

• all current bylaws • enforcement procedures • information regarding the complaints process, including any applicable forms • information regarding any appeal processes

Page 167 of 201 • contact information for by-law enforcement staff

Access to information-law enforcement provides process, transparency of the by improves accountability and may reduce the time spend answering questions.

The Officer Enforcement Law Municipal in with working i currently staff s Communications and Planning and Development to improve access to information, in particular, and preparation the website, the process filing complaint the through accessibility of educational materials, attendance at open houses, and community outreach, etc.

In the event the department grows and additional Officers are added to the compliment, a Standard Operating Procedure, which includes step-by-step instructions to assist all Officers in carrying out routine and complex operations, will be developed. The purpose of a Standard Operating Procedure is to achieve efficiencies, quality output and uniformity of performance, while reducing miscommunication and failure to comply with industry regulations.

RE: Operating Results - June 30, 2019

Report: This report provides a quantitative (Attachment A) and qualitative analysis (Attachment B) of the Township’s operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2019.

The attached qualitative analysis was completed at a “high level”. The approach taken for identifying significant variances was to review the operating results for the six months for each department and highlight those variances that are material in nature to that specific division. Therefore, a variance that may be significant to one division (i.e. Emergency Communications) may not necessarily be noteworthy in another department (i.e. Public Works).

As it is still early in the year, it is difficult to provide conclusions concerning year end variances. A number of variances are due to timing of budget recognition and seasonal effects that impact many divisions. As such, comparisons to prior year(s) are provided to highlight areas that may be problematic. Township staff will continue to monitor budget variances and take appropriate action, if able, to ensure negative variances are minimized by year end.

Most operating departments were either under budget or did not exceed their budget significantly once adjusted for seasonal and timing impacts at June 30th.

Specific details ificant concerning sign variances are summarized in the attached qualitative analysis.

Consultation: The preparation for this report was done in consultation with: • Various Township staff responsible for operations • Lisa Gatto – Supervisor of Accounting & Taxation

Attachment B

Township of Centre Wellington Operating Results For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2019

QUALITATIVE ANALYSIS

The following represents a summary of all significant operating variances for the six months ended June 30, 2019.

General Government

Mayor & Council The favorable variance is due to low usage of the health care spending account of approximately $11,000 compared to the annual budget amount. This is offset by an unfavorable variance in administrative expenditures resulting from a timing issue concerning the payment of AMO membership dues. An unfavorable variance of $4,100 for conference expenditures is offset by meeting per diems paid to councilors that was $5,000 lower than anticipated at June 30th.

CAO & Human Resources Favorable variance is mainly due to a full year budgeted for the part-time Digital Media Associate contract and the position was not filled until July 2019. There is also a favorable variance of $5,000 for the management training line item at June 30th.

Legislative Services Favorable variance is mainly the result of a new full-time position (Legislative Services Coordinator) approved in the 2019 Budget for a full year and the position was not filled until May 2019.

Financial Services The unfavorable variance is due to the timing of invoices received and paid for association/membership fees, office supplies and professional fee line items at June 30th. It is expected that these line items will be close to budget at December 31st.

This is partially offset by favorable variances due to higher than expected revenue for new roll number fees and lower usage under conferences, seminars and training expenditures than projected at June 30th. It is anticipated that training expenditures will be close to budget by year end as finance staff are registered for seminars and conferences in the second half of the year.

Page 188 of 201

Information Technology & Services The favorable variance is due to an increase in the management fee that is charged by the Township to Centre Wellington Communications (CWC) for overseeing the operations of the company. This increase was approved by the CWC board in May. Furthermore, minimal use of professional fees for technical support and lower than anticipated training expenditures to June 30th have augmented the favorable variance.

General Administration The favorable variance is mainly due to tax write-offs, professional fees, insurance premiums and seasonal related expenditures that were lower than anticipated at June 30th.

This is offset by postage expenditures that are 90% of the annual budget (Budget = $32,500) at June 30th. It is expected that this line item will not vary significantly from budget at year end.

WSIB and insurance claims are lower than expected to June 30th. Although these items do not have an effect on the Township’s surplus/deficit, it positively impacts the respective WSIB and Insurance Claims reserves.

Protection to Persons & Property

Fire Department The favorable variance is partially due to volunteer wages which were 45% of budget (Budget = $470,000) at June 30th. Standby fees were $20,200 lower than anticipated at June 30th due to less volunteer firefighters on weekly standby as a result of staff shortages. Also the timing of the 2019 billing for dispatch fees by the City of Guelph has created a further favorable variance of $27,900 at June 30th. The annual billing for dispatch services was received and paid subsequent to June 30th. The favorable variance is partially offset by the annual insurance premium payment for volunteer firefighters being processed and paid in June versus July.

Total revenue for the department is at 69% of the annual budget (Budget = $93,000), mainly due to burn permit revenue collected to June 30th. Revenue balances are slightly higher when compared to prior year amounts at June 30th.

Page 189 of 201

Building Department Building revenue is approximately 62% of the annual budgeted amount resulting in a favorable variance of $138,000 at June 30th. In addition, vacant building official positions, due to turnover, and a delayed start for a contract position have further contributed to the favorable variance.

This is offset by an unfavorable variance for professional fees of $11,900 related to legal assistance concerning various zoning and building code violations.

It is important to note that year end surpluses resulting from building permit operations are required to be transferred into a stabilization reserve fund in accordance with the Building Code Act. Conversely, year-end deficits resulting from building permit operations are required to be funded by the stabilization reserve fund. The current balance in the reserve is approximately $1,879,000.

Stray Animal Control The favorable variance is due to dog tag revenues that were 91% of the 2019 budgeted revenue of $89,000 at June 30th. As the deadline for obtaining a dog tag without penalty is April 30th, it is possible there may be a small negative variance for this cost centre at year end. Procedures implemented subsequent to the April 30th deadline to follow up on delinquent accounts have resulted in dog tag revenue achieving 93% of the budget by July 31st which is consistent with the prior year.

Livestock Act No significant variances.

By-Law Enforcement No significant variances.

Other Protection to Persons & Property No significant variances.

Emergency Communication The favorable variance is due to minimal use of the provision for emergency supplies expenditure line during the first half of 2019.

Other Township Departments

Public Works Significant favorable variances are:

Bridges and Culverts is 33% (2018 = 52%) of the annual budget (Budget = $128,400). Bridge and culvert repairs are scheduled for the second half of the year.

Grass cutting and weed spraying is 16% (2018 = 13%) of the annual budget (Budget = $112,200).

Page 190 of 201

Brush and tree removal is 17% (2018 = 29%) of the annual budget (Budget = $185,500). Further tree removal has taken place in July and August, and brush removal is scheduled for the Fall.

Ditching is 4% (2018 = 9%) of the annual budget (Budget = $94,200).

Curbs, Gutters and Basins is 14% (2018 = 11%) of the annual budget (Budget = $63,300).

Shoulder maintenance is 30% (2018 = 12%) of the annual budget (Budget = $102,200). Gravel is to be added to shoulders in the Fall.

Grading is 29% (2018 = 44%) of the annual budget (Budget = $268,400). Additional grading is planned for the Fall.

Significant unfavorable variances are:

Snow related cost centres are 69% of the annual budget (Budget = $1,328,000) at June 30th (2018 = 60%). Historically, the first 6 months of the year account for approximately 70% of the annual expenditures for the snow related cost centres.

Bituminous pavement patching is 65% (2018 = 61%) of the annual budget (Budget = $135,500).

Street cleaning is 78% (2018 = 71%) of the annual budget (Budget = $93,200).

Safety devices are 73% (2018 = 44%) of the annual budget (Budget = $137,200). Aging infrastructure has resulted in numerous repairs this year to traffic signals.

Dustlaying is 69% (2018 = 76%) of the annual budget (Budget = $327,900).

Gravel resurfacing is 93% (2018 = 89%) of the annual budget (Budget = $409,200).

Fleet fuel and repair costs are 58% (2018 = 69%) of the annual budget (Budget = $710,000).

Streetlight related cost centres have an unfavorable variance of approximately $100,000 due to the elimination of the streetlight area rate in the 2019 budget.

Page 191 of 201

Cemeteries Cemetery revenue is 42% (2018 = 53%) of the annual budget at June 30th.

Expenditures are 23% (2018 = 40%) of the annual budget mainly due to various monument and grounds related maintenance line items being under budget at June 30th. Expenditures for these maintenance items are typically higher in the second half of the year.

Health The unfavorable balance is due to snow removal and landscaping costs at the Centre Wellington Community Medical Offices that are 93% (2018 = 93%) of the annual budget at June 30th.

Crossing Guards Wages paid to crossing guards accounts for the negative variance at June 30th. This is due to a variation between the equal distribution of the wages budget for crossing guards throughout the year and the seasonality of wages paid to crossing guards. It is expected that the variance from budget at year end will be minimal.

Parks & Recreation Revenues at the Sportsplex and ECC are approximately 53% (2018 = 51%) of the annual budget (Budget = $2,003,500) at June 30th. Historically revenue is slightly higher in the second half of the year for these two facilities. Therefore revenues should be close to, or exceed, budget by the end of the year.

Expenditures at the Sportsplex and ECC are approximately 51% (2018 = 49%) of the annual budget (Budget = $2,960,835) at June 30th. Repair and maintenance, utility and snow removal costs for the two facilities are higher than expected for the first quarter of the year. Staff will continue to monitor these negative variances throughout the year and make adjustments, if necessary, for the 2020 Draft Budget.

Parks expenditures were 30% (2018 = 27%) of the annual parks budget at June 30th. Parks expenditures are typically around 30% to 35% in the first half of the year as water costs for splash pads, parks, and maintenance costs are higher in the second half of the year.

Administrative costs had a favorable variance of $20,100 at March 31st. This is mainly due to seasonality of operations for the Parks and Recreation division as certain labour costs were under budget at June 30th as expected.

Page 192 of 201

Fergus Grand Theatre Revenue is 39% of budget (Budget = $92,750) at June 30th. The unfavorable variance is due to the seasonal nature of the theatre. Specifically, the majority of the theatre’s revenue is earned during the fourth quarter of the year.

$3,200 of the shortfall in revenue is for in-house productions as in some circumstances performer and artist fees are paid in advance of performance in order to secure bookings. It is anticipated that in-house productions will breakeven by year end as many of the shows are presented in the fourth quarter of 2019.

Other Cultural Services The unfavorable variance is mainly due to the timing of Canada Day events. Canada Day celebrations were at 85% (2018 = 70%) of the annual budget at June 30th.

Other Social Services Snow removal costs for behind the Fergus Library is 99% of the annual budget (Budget = $40,000) at June 30th. This is offset by lower than expected costs to June 30th for labour and equipment expenditures in the Fergus and Elora downtown areas. Labour and equipment costs are typically higher in the second half of the year due to expenditures associated with watering and maintaining gardens and green spaces.

Heritage The favorable variance is due to minimal expenditures for all budgeted line items in this division as of June 30th.

Victoria Park Seniors’ Centre The favorable variance is due to the surplus from programming activities exceeding expectations at the end of the second quarter. This is partially offset by a negative variance for snow removal expenditures at June 30th.

Planning Department The favorable variance is due to revenue being 59% of the annual budget (Budget = $185,000) at June 30th.

Committee of Adjustments No significant variances.

Economic Development $13,200 of the favorable variance is due to unspent funds in the marketing expenditure line (19% of the annual budget spent) at June 30th.

Payment of the annual invoice from the Business Centre Guelph - Wellington in the first half of the year for small business training and support results in an unfavorable variance of $7,300 at June 30th. However the actual realized variance at year end will be $600.

Page 193 of 201

Tourism The favorable variance is partly due to provincial grant funding received for hiring students to assist in the Tourism office.

The wayfinding sign repair and maintenance line has a favorable variance of $7,300 and is offset by marketing expenditures which exceeded expectations by $9,500 at June 30th. It’s expected these line items will not result in significant variances from budget at year end.

General Expenditures and Revenue

Rental Buildings The unfavorable variance is due to the timing of payment for building insurance costs for the Elora Drill Shed and West Garafraxa office. Insurance costs represent 47% of the total budget for this cost centre.

Taxation and PIL’s Regular taxation revenue is approximately 91% billed as of June 30th as in prior years. Final bills for commercial, industrial, and multi-residential properties are issued in August.

Supplementary taxation revenue shows an unfavorable variance due to timing of supplementary/omit runs. Subsequent to June 30th, $212,000 was collected (101% of the annual budget). This is due to various phases of large subdivisions being assessed by MPAC in 2019 (i.e. Summerfields, and Beatty Hollow).

Net Debt The favorable variance is due to differing repayment terms for each debenture. Variance at the end of the year will be insignificant as each debt related budget line item is based on an amortization schedule for each debenture.

Other Revenue and Expense The favorable variance is due to investment income exceeding expectations.
