Welcome again Mr. Branch, and when you're ready, the floor is yours. 40 00:04:55,150 --> 00:04:55,790 Good evening. 41 00:04:58,120 --> 00:05:04,700 Glad to be back. So, I'm bringing the March 2026 update on the Google 42 00:05:04,700 --> 00:05:06,100 Manor Read Development Project. 43 00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:14,700 A quick snapshot status update, a project is tracking on budget, 44 00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:22,260 87% completion, currently scheduled for building turnover this September. Major 45 00:05:22,260 --> 00:05:24,780 activities including the building envelope, continue, 46 00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:28,660 mental-cladding along the outside. Inside the building we're 47 00:05:28,660 --> 00:05:34,060 continuing with our fit-outs and our iCAT, which is information communication, 48 00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:38,120 automation technology, those works are also progressing throughout the 49 00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:43,740 building. In terms of our ministry approvals, we are planning to make a 50 00:05:43,740 --> 00:05:45,100 submission shortly to the ministry. 51 00:05:48,260 --> 00:05:51,480 I think we, no, sorry, here we have a 52 00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:58,700 table, which I would like to show. Draw your attention as usual to the far-right column. Show 53 00:05:58,700 --> 00:06:03,960 in the variance. We're showing projected zero variance, which means we're tracking right 54 00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:04,600 to budget. 55 00:06:09,380 --> 00:06:15,720 Point of note with the construction management contract with L's Dawn. We are 56 00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:20,540 converting that to guaranteed maximum price. Understand this was, well, this has already 57 00:06:20,540 --> 00:06:26,300 been approved. Of course, just a quick recap, all risks that were previously shared were 58 00:06:26,300 --> 00:06:30,680 relating to scope, gap, delay, acceleration, or cost of work. There's now been transferred 59 00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:35,260 over to Ellis Don, like carrying all of that risk now moving forward. We're only carrying 60 00:06:35,260 --> 00:06:40,600 the contingency. We have for changes to scope, so any changes that are issued at this 61 00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:45,480 point will have a lot to carry a little small contingency for ourselves. It has been factored 62 00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:51,560 to the in the financial table I just showed you before, so we've accounted for 63 00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:54,180 it. 64 00:06:54,600 --> 00:07:00,600 I'm going risk to the project previously, the furniture, fixtures and equipment procurements, 65 00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:07,320 delay in procuring and delivering those and their potential to impact all project works downstream 66 00:07:07,320 --> 00:07:08,020 of there. 67 00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:14,860 At this point we have procured all the critical packages, large ones, furniture, all the TVs, 68 00:07:14,860 --> 00:07:18,420 AV equipment that's getting delivered to be installed. 69 00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:23,980 There's only one or two elements still to yet for purchase wars to be issued. 70 00:07:24,580 --> 00:07:29,800 So we've really mitigated this down to as much as you can without having the very last of it. 71 00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:37,920 Approaches, there are some items that will be done with credit card, close to the actual move in date or hand over date, I should say. 72 00:07:39,060 --> 00:07:47,540 Another risk we have is the Ministry approvals. We need them to issue the license for us to relocate residents into the new building. 73 00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:57,380 We are carrying a six week contingency if you like, for the amount of time for the Ministry to come to site, perform their inspection. 74 00:07:57,380 --> 00:08:04,840 And then for us to do any kind of follow-up for what we're anticipating to be some minor deficiencies, perhaps, that need to be addressed. 75 00:08:09,210 --> 00:08:12,810 Other risks that we've mentioned before, tariffs to construction materials. 76 00:08:13,550 --> 00:08:17,610 I have to tell you that all the steel and aluminum based materials have been delivered to sites. 77 00:08:17,890 --> 00:08:22,370 There's been no issue, or yeah, no issue with tariffs noted. 78 00:08:23,010 --> 00:08:25,770 So that's been taken care of. We can close this risk. 79 00:08:25,770 --> 00:08:32,070 Likewise, we are also anticipating possibly a similar impact to the furniture and fixed 80 00:08:32,070 --> 00:08:33,190 your equipment purchases. 81 00:08:33,710 --> 00:08:39,070 As I just explained, we've gone through most of the packages that almost all done that 82 00:08:39,070 --> 00:08:44,450 have been issued with no flagged issues that all impacts, I should say, throughout the entire 83 00:08:44,450 --> 00:08:44,910 process. 84 00:08:45,530 --> 00:08:47,990 So we're comfortable closing this risk as well. 85 00:08:50,460 --> 00:08:53,360 Critical decisions, none to be held this time. 86 00:08:55,910 --> 00:09:02,010 critical milestones may is going to be important month where we're going to fit out a lot 87 00:09:02,010 --> 00:09:07,870 of the mechanical completion in the, I'm sorry, complete a lot of the mechanical 88 00:09:07,870 --> 00:09:14,090 fit out throughout the building and as well as the ICAT and electrical rooms as well 89 00:09:14,090 --> 00:09:19,010 so that means that our building systems and commissioning can then start so that's all 90 00:09:19,010 --> 00:09:23,750 going to happen in May with the first element finishing in early May and the second 91 00:09:23,750 --> 00:09:25,190 at Stardian Lake May. 92 00:09:27,370 --> 00:09:31,190 And then in terms of highlights we have to date the Jade Park in 93 00:09:31,190 --> 00:09:36,690 Lot, as handed over to the city last year, late last year, we do have a couple landscaping 94 00:09:36,690 --> 00:09:42,390 deficiencies that we just need to be rectified the spring, just technically now, but I mean 95 00:09:42,390 --> 00:09:50,890 when the snow has melted away. So, well, wait for that. Building construction, we got a drone 96 00:09:50,890 --> 00:09:59,490 shot here of the building from the existing gold menors vantage point and you can see from 97 00:09:59,490 --> 00:10:04,530 right to left the north wing our cladding works continues. I mentioned earlier finishes are 98 00:10:04,530 --> 00:10:09,790 our progressing quite well throughout that portion of the building the center wing exterior works 99 00:10:09,790 --> 00:10:16,890 are completely done and we're doing our wall closing within the building so the interior walls 100 00:10:16,890 --> 00:10:23,210 steel studs have been set up. We've run all the electrical mechanical elements throughout the walls 101 00:10:23,210 --> 00:10:29,770 and now we're closing those in with a dry wall and insulation. And then south wing we're 102 00:10:29,770 --> 00:10:35,870 have the cladding as well that's commenced on the exterior and within the inside we are progressing 103 00:10:35,870 --> 00:10:41,310 with our paint priming. So going quite well throughout the building. Here's some more photos. 104 00:10:42,530 --> 00:10:48,910 little dark on this take but we have the fire suppression system shown to be installed here 105 00:10:48,910 --> 00:10:49,790 in this photo. 106 00:10:52,380 --> 00:10:55,660 This one is showing the corridors so you can see the level of finish with the 107 00:10:55,660 --> 00:10:58,100 paints happening throughout all the way down the corridor. 108 00:11:00,700 --> 00:11:02,200 This is one of the electrical rooms 109 00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:06,360 with the main electrical room. I should say we've got quite a large piece of equipment there 110 00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:12,980 on big gray box on the fire right corner and then you can see all the spools of wire 111 00:11:12,980 --> 00:11:17,780 hundreds of meters of wire that is run throughout the building. 112 00:11:19,060 --> 00:11:23,820 Exterior now we're showing the ribbox here. This is the building's exterior 113 00:11:23,820 --> 00:11:25,980 transformer. So that's been installed. 114 00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:30,820 The semi-private resident room entrance 115 00:11:30,820 --> 00:11:36,020 through several features here. You can see the track for the acoustic ceiling 116 00:11:36,020 --> 00:11:41,460 tiles at the very top. It's now been put in place. We have two cuts into the 117 00:11:41,460 --> 00:11:45,740 well with wires hanging from the top there that will be the nurse call system, the dome 118 00:11:45,740 --> 00:11:51,460 lights which get installed over the respective residence rooms. And then to the right and 119 00:11:51,460 --> 00:11:57,840 laughter either side the entrance we have a mill work cabinet with glass and this is both the 120 00:11:57,840 --> 00:12:05,520 glass components of memory box which holds elements of the residence life held there and the 121 00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:10,420 rest of the mill work acts as a cabinetry for personal protection equipment. So it's things like 122 00:12:10,420 --> 00:12:13,320 dressing gowns and gloves, 123 00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:19,660 just detailing some of the major cable that gets the 124 00:12:19,660 --> 00:12:24,240 run through this building and the aptly-nade cable tray. So that's well 125 00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:26,800 underway as you can see here. This photo is Evans up. 126 00:12:28,890 --> 00:12:29,890 Here we're seeing the 127 00:12:30,410 --> 00:12:35,910 hand hygiene sinks which are located along the corridors. You're now getting 128 00:12:35,910 --> 00:12:37,170 installed throughout the building. 129 00:12:39,450 --> 00:12:42,410 Shot showing the service lines that now 130 00:12:42,410 --> 00:12:47,370 completely wrapped in insulation covered with protective layer that even have the 131 00:12:47,370 --> 00:12:52,890 direction labels and identifying their services and their flow direction as 132 00:12:52,890 --> 00:12:58,930 well. So that work is completely done and then we can see the acoustic ceiling 133 00:12:58,930 --> 00:13:03,170 tile track is getting installed underneath. So it's getting ready for that to be 134 00:13:03,170 --> 00:13:07,670 completed. Mill work getting installed throughout the building. 135 00:13:10,420 --> 00:13:11,520 Last item here are 136 00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:18,380 ceiling or lift tracks, I should say, there's stalled along the ceilings for the patient 137 00:13:18,380 --> 00:13:19,040 lift system. 138 00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:22,260 This one here is taken from the perspective of the patient's room. 139 00:13:22,460 --> 00:13:24,580 They run over the residents room, sorry. 140 00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:29,260 They run over the residents bed and then out through into the washrooms. 141 00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:33,880 So this is the track you've seen continue through into that space. 142 00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:38,080 So you can see we had to cut the frames to allow that to happen. 143 00:13:38,300 --> 00:13:40,980 That's an intended feature, obviously, to make it work. 144 00:13:40,980 --> 00:13:41,400 so. 145 00:13:44,940 --> 00:13:46,100 Those are all highlights. 146 00:13:50,250 --> 00:13:53,350 Thank you. It's nice to see things progressing. I'll open the floor 147 00:13:53,350 --> 00:13:58,070 for any questions for Mr. Branch on his presentation. Go ahead, Councillor Filman. 148 00:14:00,350 --> 00:14:00,970 Thank you, 149 00:14:01,050 --> 00:14:07,930 orship, through you. A couple of questions regarding the conversion from construction management 150 00:14:08,870 --> 00:14:17,190 to guarantee maximum price. So I think if I'm correct, we went from originally fixed price 151 00:14:17,190 --> 00:14:20,830 to construction management, we're back to a maximum price. 152 00:14:21,330 --> 00:14:24,990 But I'm not really clear on the third bullet point 153 00:14:24,990 --> 00:14:29,490 that states the owner carries contingency for changing. 154 00:14:29,750 --> 00:14:33,150 Because when did that go back on the fixed cost contract? 155 00:14:33,810 --> 00:14:35,950 So what happens is the construction managers 156 00:14:35,950 --> 00:14:38,770 has to put a firm cost for what they think 157 00:14:38,770 --> 00:14:41,090 it's going to be to build what they have today. 158 00:14:41,610 --> 00:14:44,790 If you change that, let's say you add some new rooms 159 00:14:44,790 --> 00:14:46,950 or features to the building, that needs 160 00:14:46,950 --> 00:14:52,290 be compensated separately. They wouldn't be able to forecast that into the guaranteed maximum price. 161 00:14:53,630 --> 00:14:58,710 Okay, that's a good clarification, but anything else as far as extras from subcontractors 162 00:14:58,710 --> 00:14:59,970 and so on will be captured by... 163 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:10,760 By the fixed, when I say extras to the existing footprint and existing layouts and so on, there won't be extras along those. 164 00:15:11,020 --> 00:15:21,080 That's correct. And I noted there. You'll see the specific buckets of risks, the scope gap elements, cost of work, delay, celebrations, those extras, they are all covered in the GMP. 165 00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:28,620 And just to follow up question, so what prompted this conversion at this stage of the project? 166 00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:33,200 As you get further along and you have less to finish, 167 00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:39,440 you can grab a certain greater level of certainty into terms of putting a firmer price on it. 168 00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:47,980 So it was just a piece that developed along that we wanted to have a firm final price to present to you as what we believe the cost would be. 169 00:15:47,980 --> 00:15:52,160 as opposed to sharing the risk of reward as we've been doing up until that point. 170 00:15:53,300 --> 00:16:00,780 Okay, thank you and just one last question. Does this guaranteed maximum price stay within 171 00:16:01,520 --> 00:16:08,760 the budget that was set earlier? Yeah, that's right. I showed a table up previously and it showed 172 00:16:08,760 --> 00:16:13,680 all the costs and variance of zero and that that table doesn't incorporate the guaranteed 173 00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:17,720 maximum price. That's the latest. So yeah, absolutely. Okay. Thank you. Who's your 174 00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:18,240 mic questions? 175 00:16:20,870 --> 00:16:22,910 Thank you. Are there any other questions from Mr. Branch? 176 00:16:27,290 --> 00:16:28,170 Well, thank you very much. 177 00:16:28,230 --> 00:16:33,450 If you'd like to see on schedule on budget. So let's keep that up and we would forward to 178 00:16:33,450 --> 00:16:38,750 seeing the next update, which will bring us how much closer to completion. Excellent. Thank you. 179 00:16:38,750 --> 00:16:39,610 Thank you very much. 180 00:16:43,890 --> 00:16:47,850 Next item on our agenda here is item 5b. This is a presentation on a new 181 00:16:47,850 --> 00:16:50,290 higher hall locations for information purposes. 182 00:16:50,370 --> 00:16:53,510 This will be presented by consultants, Ryan Stitt, 183 00:16:53,690 --> 00:16:56,190 in Brandon, Florida, Luzzi, from Solter, Pylen, 184 00:16:58,870 --> 00:17:01,690 I'm realizing, as I've read that, Solter, P-10. 185 00:17:03,580 --> 00:17:05,600 Welcome, and the floor is yours when it's ready. 186 00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:35,040 Excellent. 187 00:17:35,140 --> 00:17:37,880 Well, thanks everybody for allowing us to speak today. 188 00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:41,120 We are new in front of Council, 189 00:17:41,460 --> 00:17:42,980 so we'll give a quick introduction to ourselves 190 00:17:42,980 --> 00:17:44,280 and then we'll get rid of the presentation. 191 00:17:45,380 --> 00:17:46,760 So we are Solter, Pylen Architecture. 192 00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:55,000 My name is Ryan Stitt. I'm the president of Salt Peeler Architecture and we do a vast amount of work in the public sector 193 00:17:55,000 --> 00:18:01,400 but specifically with interest in first responder facilities being fire paramedics and police. 194 00:18:01,760 --> 00:18:06,040 And we're very excited to be involved in this new project for Tim and Sears. 195 00:18:06,420 --> 00:18:09,820 Well, let it, Brandon, introduce himself as well here. 196 00:18:10,180 --> 00:18:14,260 Yeah, perfect. Thank you. I'm Brandon Bordelitz. I'm an associate at Salt Peeler and Project Architect. 197 00:18:14,260 --> 00:18:21,280 I'll be the one leading this project for its lifespan from our offices side of things and again, 198 00:18:21,520 --> 00:18:26,860 over my career, my focus has been primarily on fire facilities across six or seven different 199 00:18:26,860 --> 00:18:31,600 municipalities across the province and, you know, three or four others on going as well. 200 00:18:32,300 --> 00:18:38,180 So, keen area of our focus as we kind of help develop the vision for Tim and his new main fire 201 00:18:38,180 --> 00:18:38,740 hall. 202 00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:43,880 Yeah, it's a very quickly today, our agenda, we're going to talk about the programming of the 203 00:18:43,880 --> 00:18:49,600 talk about the site evaluation that we've gone through, look at the recommendations for site 204 00:18:49,600 --> 00:18:54,280 selection and then have a bit of an open discussion at the end we would assume as well. 205 00:18:56,730 --> 00:19:01,330 So as Ryan alluded to there, we have three main pieces for the conversation today. The first 206 00:19:01,330 --> 00:19:06,610 piece is programming. This is over viewing the existing facilities for Tim and Fire current 207 00:19:06,610 --> 00:19:11,250 needs that are not met by those facilities. Future growth potential and improvements to service 208 00:19:11,250 --> 00:19:17,370 delivery. This is done not in terms of a finalized design, but rather to give us an overall 209 00:19:17,370 --> 00:19:21,890 program to allow us to move to Stage 2, which is a test fit. This is reviewing that program 210 00:19:21,890 --> 00:19:27,050 against two sites that have been identified by City staff for review. We've done a preliminary 211 00:19:27,050 --> 00:19:31,090 evaluation of how that building program fits on that site as well as other constraints with 212 00:19:31,090 --> 00:19:36,310 those two properties, including review of future growth potential and review of zoning and regulatory 213 00:19:36,310 --> 00:19:40,650 constraints with those. And then based on that, we've developed some pros and cons of each location 214 00:19:40,650 --> 00:19:43,090 and provide a recommendation for next steps 215 00:19:43,090 --> 00:19:45,090 based on that evaluation of the two properties. 216 00:19:48,550 --> 00:19:51,350 So we'll start out with the programming and schematic elements. 217 00:19:52,270 --> 00:19:53,890 There are three, again, pieces that we 218 00:19:53,890 --> 00:19:57,470 reviewed during this phase with the Timmins Fire Group, 219 00:19:57,750 --> 00:19:58,770 as well as city staff. 220 00:19:59,230 --> 00:20:00,810 Starting off with the requirements for the building, 221 00:20:00,930 --> 00:20:03,630 we had initial discussions reviewing existing facilities 222 00:20:04,170 --> 00:20:06,610 with the chief deputy and members of staff. 223 00:20:06,970 --> 00:20:09,410 Identified current stressors in the existing facilities, 224 00:20:09,950 --> 00:20:12,330 as well as areas of best practice from other municipalities 225 00:20:12,330 --> 00:20:16,450 is that we've worked with and we've reviewed across the province for integration into a new 226 00:20:16,450 --> 00:20:21,710 facility. We've also reviewed the needs of fire service today, but also in a forward-looking 227 00:20:21,710 --> 00:20:26,930 manner for where the service looks to be as it grows in the coming years, identified items 228 00:20:26,930 --> 00:20:32,330 to improve level of service delivery by Timons Fire and looked at emergency operations facilities 229 00:20:32,330 --> 00:20:37,390 for emergency management and future growth as a regional emergency management Ontario hub for the 230 00:20:37,390 --> 00:20:42,450 building. These pieces of the program were then looked at from an organizational 231 00:20:42,450 --> 00:20:49,490 perspective. Key operational silos were reviewed, again, in a way to allow the best 232 00:20:49,490 --> 00:20:54,470 service delivery of the building. A review of shared versus private spaces throughout 233 00:20:54,470 --> 00:20:58,930 the facility, looking at administrative function, fire suppression, and decontamination, 234 00:20:59,090 --> 00:21:03,670 health and safety functions. And then these were all right-size for the needs of 235 00:21:03,670 --> 00:21:08,730 to men's fire, again, looking at future needs as well as industry standards, spaces are 236 00:21:08,730 --> 00:21:12,410 sized to be comfortable and functional while maintaining an overall efficiency of the 237 00:21:12,410 --> 00:21:14,350 building size and development. 238 00:21:16,820 --> 00:21:20,400 So as noted, those program areas were divided into four key zones. 239 00:21:20,620 --> 00:21:24,800 These are color coded to reference to a floor plan that's a couple slides ahead in the 240 00:21:24,800 --> 00:21:25,180 presentation. 241 00:21:25,580 --> 00:21:30,480 The administrative function includes office space for senior leadership, fire prevention, 242 00:21:30,480 --> 00:21:36,740 training divisions as well as training larger training spaces to hold training exercises 243 00:21:36,740 --> 00:21:37,460 and classes. 244 00:21:38,040 --> 00:21:42,240 There's additional meeting and support space, public facing space for interaction with the 245 00:21:42,240 --> 00:21:49,060 public and other city staff and officials as well as a area for display of historic memorabilia 246 00:21:49,060 --> 00:21:51,820 and cultural artifacts from the Tumans Fire Service. 247 00:21:52,520 --> 00:22:00,460 There's emergency operations facilities included for future emergency management and regional 248 00:22:00,460 --> 00:22:09,780 and space allocated for timins volunteer firefighters, both office and kind of close cruise space on that side of things. 249 00:22:10,580 --> 00:22:15,960 On the suppression side, it mimics much of the other fire stations across the province. 250 00:22:16,240 --> 00:22:21,400 Crewquarters provided for active duty firefighters, including dorms, kitchen and work areas, 251 00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:29,380 an apparatus garage with a storage of maintenance of fire vehicles and storage and support spaces for equipment maintenance and response readiness. 252 00:22:30,300 --> 00:22:49,280 And then the third piece of the key programming there is the decontamination space. So this is separate space allocated for the health and safety of firefighters. It's space dedicated to the washing and decontamination of gear, including the trucks themselves, the apparatus, to minimize the negative impacts of toxins on long-term health care for firefighters. 253 00:22:50,080 --> 00:22:55,460 protocols in this area are growing, and the version of this put forward is kind of the current 254 00:22:56,800 --> 00:23:02,040 best foot forward approach that's being used across the province. In fact, it does, you 255 00:23:02,040 --> 00:23:07,020 know, go above and beyond to meet some of the health and safety needs that are coming up in the future 256 00:23:07,020 --> 00:23:09,100 across the province as well. 257 00:23:09,600 --> 00:23:12,860 And then there's the additional outdoor spaces that are required for the program, and these aren't 258 00:23:12,860 --> 00:23:19,200 necessarily identified on the floor plans, but includes crew patio space, a firefighter 259 00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:22,300 on site and future growth areas for outdoor training grounds. 260 00:23:26,380 --> 00:23:27,860 The numbers on this side are a little small, 261 00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:28,860 so I apologize for that, 262 00:23:28,920 --> 00:23:30,820 but we've put some kind of key bullet points here. 263 00:23:31,040 --> 00:23:33,040 Those four key program areas, like I said, 264 00:23:33,140 --> 00:23:35,720 we right-sized these comparing to current facilities, 265 00:23:36,200 --> 00:23:37,660 other municipalities across the province, 266 00:23:38,040 --> 00:23:39,260 and kind of functional needs. 267 00:23:39,760 --> 00:23:41,880 We've included a 25% gross up factor 268 00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:45,580 for unforeseen pieces of the program that may come up, 269 00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:49,080 but as well as services, building structure, et cetera. 270 00:23:49,640 --> 00:23:51,640 And this got us to a total expected gross footprint 271 00:23:51,640 --> 00:23:56,820 about a 40,000 square foot facility that includes both garage spaces, both the decompamination 272 00:23:56,820 --> 00:23:58,140 and the response garage. 273 00:23:59,940 --> 00:24:03,320 We then took those and put them into a preliminary schematic floor plan to show that 274 00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:08,280 organization, again, of the admin area towards the front of the facility to allow that public 275 00:24:08,280 --> 00:24:13,760 interface crew areas towards the rear adjacent directly to their response zone for the vehicles 276 00:24:13,760 --> 00:24:20,240 and the decontamination area to the top of that page north here to allow equipment and 277 00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:26,380 to be decontaminated on the one side and then brought round into the response side after they've been cleaned effectively. 278 00:24:27,300 --> 00:24:35,100 And going through this exercise, we're able to find some efficiencies in the layout of those spaces to come up with a footprint of this currently sitting around 36,000 square feet. 279 00:24:38,550 --> 00:24:44,010 Having that footprint allowed us to then move into the location review and evaluation of test fitting for sites. 280 00:24:45,150 --> 00:24:48,150 So looking at the location, the fit and regulatory requirements. 281 00:24:48,150 --> 00:24:52,510 again, the location needs to serve the needs of the fire department, response times, access 282 00:24:52,510 --> 00:24:57,790 to main roads, congestion, traffic maneuverability, fit relates to how well the proposed 283 00:24:57,790 --> 00:25:02,670 footprint sits on the site, is there ample space for the programming pieces required, both 284 00:25:02,670 --> 00:25:06,770 in the building and on site, and then obviously from a regulatory perspective, there is zoning 285 00:25:06,770 --> 00:25:11,930 requirements, external authorities, conservation authorities, and then services as well that 286 00:25:11,930 --> 00:25:18,130 have been reviewed at a preliminary level. So we were tasked with reviewing two sites 287 00:25:18,130 --> 00:25:23,330 identified by city staff, the first one is on Algonquin between Cedar and Balsam, currently 288 00:25:23,330 --> 00:25:31,230 a parking lot. The second one is along Highway 655, so we'll jump into each of those one by 289 00:25:31,230 --> 00:25:38,090 one here. So first site A, this is the in town parking lot site on Algonquin. The identified 290 00:25:38,090 --> 00:25:43,390 property is an ideal location in terms of central location in the core of the city, 291 00:25:43,390 --> 00:25:49,310 loss flexibility in response direction due to a banquet being right there. However, there are concerns 292 00:25:49,310 --> 00:25:54,910 with the tightness of this area allowing the circulation of apparatus vehicles in and out of the site. 293 00:25:55,250 --> 00:26:00,810 And when we jump to the one of the next couple slides, we'll see that with the building footprint 294 00:26:00,810 --> 00:26:06,010 sitting on there, that concern gets further increased because allowing vehicles to pull out of these 295 00:26:06,010 --> 00:26:13,290 garages and make the turns that these intersections is currently not feasible with how close we 296 00:26:14,630 --> 00:26:18,390 So the ideal building footprint, as I identified previously, is not a suitable fit for this 297 00:26:18,390 --> 00:26:18,770 property. 298 00:26:19,010 --> 00:26:22,410 It sits very close to property lines, restricting potential for some of those outdoor 299 00:26:22,410 --> 00:26:23,690 spaces noted. 300 00:26:24,970 --> 00:26:28,290 In a key manner, we would not be able to have any of the outdoor spaces aside from the 301 00:26:28,290 --> 00:26:31,850 vehicle aprons that we mentioned, as well as no potential for on-site parking. 302 00:26:33,290 --> 00:26:37,310 The footprint also encroaches into the site boundaries of non-city owned properties and 303 00:26:37,310 --> 00:26:39,390 existing businesses around that piece of property. 304 00:26:40,170 --> 00:26:45,370 And the property, in addition, has significant grade change towards the intersection of 305 00:26:45,370 --> 00:26:50,910 Algonquin and Balsam, meaning that fire vehicles responding out that way would likely 306 00:26:50,910 --> 00:26:56,810 have to contend with driveways that have significant sloping and or have been supplemented 307 00:26:56,810 --> 00:27:00,830 with retaining structures that may prevent the flow of those vehicles. 308 00:27:02,430 --> 00:27:05,890 And obviously, because of all this, the site does not allow for future growth potential as 309 00:27:07,590 --> 00:27:12,850 From a regulatory perspective, however this site would be a great fit, there's no limits 310 00:27:12,850 --> 00:27:17,110 on lock coverage setback or building height in this zone, so there is flexibility within 311 00:27:17,110 --> 00:27:18,110 the building form. 312 00:27:18,690 --> 00:27:23,570 However, looking at just the size of the garage space alone, even if we were to manipulate the 313 00:27:23,570 --> 00:27:28,530 administrative quarters by going into a multi-story scenario, we would still be encroaching 314 00:27:28,530 --> 00:27:33,430 on those neighboring properties, the garage space themselves, take up the entirety of the 315 00:27:33,430 --> 00:27:34,910 is currently sitting on property. 316 00:27:36,550 --> 00:27:39,610 These items do not also resolve any future growth potential 317 00:27:40,070 --> 00:27:42,310 for both the facility itself, 318 00:27:42,430 --> 00:27:44,130 as well as potential future training facilities 319 00:27:44,130 --> 00:27:45,130 that fire as identified. 320 00:27:47,880 --> 00:27:50,720 So site B is a location along Highway 655. 321 00:27:52,420 --> 00:27:54,640 The identified property is again noted 322 00:27:54,640 --> 00:27:57,100 as being beneficial while not right in the central core. 323 00:27:57,620 --> 00:28:00,840 It does allow response times to a different set of areas 324 00:28:01,520 --> 00:28:04,540 with some efficiency using both the highway 325 00:28:04,540 --> 00:28:08,040 and then it's close proximity to Algonquin for that response. 326 00:28:09,100 --> 00:28:13,260 It also allows for is an advantageous location for the future growth of the city, 327 00:28:14,240 --> 00:28:17,680 and presents the opportunity to consolidate with the Schumacher volunteer fire station 328 00:28:17,680 --> 00:28:20,100 to create a composite station with state-of-the-art facilities, 329 00:28:20,860 --> 00:28:24,580 so that a larger contingent of firefighting within the city 330 00:28:24,580 --> 00:28:28,520 of Timons can be carried out to a state-of-the-art equipment and facilities. 331 00:28:30,100 --> 00:28:33,080 The building fit on this property is no concern. 332 00:28:34,080 --> 00:28:37,940 It is a much larger property than even what we're showing here is an allocated use. 333 00:28:38,460 --> 00:28:41,580 There's sufficient lands for the building parking, fire vehicle circulation, 334 00:28:42,180 --> 00:28:45,460 as well as some of the other onsite amenities we noted, 335 00:28:45,660 --> 00:28:48,400 and expansion for future onsite firefighter training grounds. 336 00:28:49,720 --> 00:28:52,920 The one concern with the building fit on this site is obviously 337 00:28:52,920 --> 00:28:54,760 how close we would have to have driveways together, 338 00:28:54,760 --> 00:28:58,420 However, preliminary conversations with the MTO have been held 339 00:28:58,420 --> 00:29:00,840 to allow two driveway locations along the highway. 340 00:29:01,100 --> 00:29:03,540 Granted one is only used for emergency vehicle egress, 341 00:29:03,740 --> 00:29:06,280 which the main fire vehicle apron would be. 342 00:29:07,960 --> 00:29:09,620 From a regulatory perspective, 343 00:29:10,660 --> 00:29:13,360 nothing of great concern in the building form itself. 344 00:29:13,940 --> 00:29:17,520 That said, it is zone currently as a hazard zone. 345 00:29:17,800 --> 00:29:20,660 We do know that there are some poor sub-service conditions 346 00:29:20,660 --> 00:29:21,920 including tailings. 347 00:29:21,920 --> 00:29:27,260 preliminary discussions have been held with our team and with external groups as well to 348 00:29:27,260 --> 00:29:32,420 look at alternative options to either rehabilitate and or find alternative structural responses 349 00:29:32,420 --> 00:29:42,420 to deal with those conditions without incurring exorbitant cost. These conversations are ongoing 350 00:29:42,420 --> 00:29:45,120 and will continue as we move into the next phases of the project. 351 00:29:48,840 --> 00:29:51,200 So based on this and in summary 352 00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:55,800 We recommend that based on the content of this presentation and the due diligence to date, 353 00:29:56,520 --> 00:29:59,900 that there's an endorsement of a decision to proceed with the further work on the site. 354 00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:18,520 Education on Highway 655, to allow the project to proceed into a design development and detailed design stage. This will allow for further updates on costing, more detailed design of the building and site works, engagement of other engineering groups to do some further investigation on some of the conditions discussed in today's presentation. 355 00:30:19,380 --> 00:30:29,100 And the key factors for this recommendation for the Highway 655 site are the site fit, the amalgamation of Schumacher station, potential for future growth and expansion. 356 00:30:29,740 --> 00:30:34,820 access and flow of emergency vehicles the opportunity for onsite modern training grounds and the 357 00:30:34,820 --> 00:30:37,260 opportunities for onsite stormwater management. 358 00:30:39,460 --> 00:30:41,360 And we'd like to open it up for any questions 359 00:30:41,360 --> 00:30:47,380 of discussion. Thank you for the work done so far on this and for the presentations. We'll open 360 00:30:47,380 --> 00:30:53,260 it up for discussion. Go ahead, Councillor Gistana. Just a quick question. I see you alone to the fact 361 00:30:53,260 --> 00:30:58,680 that without, if you put it on 655, you'll be able to amalgamate 362 00:30:58,680 --> 00:31:04,160 with the Schumacher station, if we, I don't like to 655 site, personally. 363 00:31:05,480 --> 00:31:08,980 If we don't proceed, there's still going to be a Schumacher station, correct? 364 00:31:11,990 --> 00:31:16,350 We don't expect to hear what's in the corporation. 365 00:31:16,570 --> 00:31:21,150 Yeah, through your wish, by defer this to the chief for the comment on that item. 366 00:31:23,370 --> 00:31:23,570 Chief? 367 00:31:24,030 --> 00:31:24,630 Thank you. 368 00:31:24,630 --> 00:31:29,650 to be as a counselor. If we don't go to that location, that we aren't going to be in any 369 00:31:29,650 --> 00:31:33,810 where in the vicinity of Jamaica, we wouldn't be amalgamating out of the stations. 370 00:31:35,010 --> 00:31:41,070 Okay. So then what I'd like to see then is to look at me for myself personally, 371 00:31:41,790 --> 00:31:45,870 is to look at other sites. I don't find that site to be adequate. Thank you. 372 00:31:47,820 --> 00:31:48,660 Do you want to count to currently? 373 00:31:50,660 --> 00:31:51,960 Thank you. I have a couple of questions. 374 00:31:54,870 --> 00:31:56,710 First of all, I'll start off with thank you for 375 00:31:56,710 --> 00:31:59,250 presentations, they need some drawings or anything else. 376 00:31:59,590 --> 00:32:06,830 The President's site that we have, the existing fair hall, would that not the land there 377 00:32:06,830 --> 00:32:13,270 not be sufficient for an expansion or, I mean, you're fully aligned there. 378 00:32:13,730 --> 00:32:18,430 So is that a possibility of even looked at a possible expansion or not at the top? 379 00:32:19,530 --> 00:32:23,990 If I have a couple of questions, if we want to do one at a time, if we can? 380 00:32:29,920 --> 00:32:35,680 We did look at that site so that site does seem to be large in scale when you look at it. 381 00:32:35,940 --> 00:32:40,760 But in fact it's quite smaller than the other downtown site that we're looking at as well right now. 382 00:32:41,620 --> 00:32:46,360 The way the building situated right now is there's no back entrance into that building. 383 00:32:46,760 --> 00:32:51,360 So the facility that we're providing in the schematic plans right now is a dry through station, 384 00:32:51,520 --> 00:32:56,080 which allows the fire vehicles to enter from the back of the station and exit from the front of the station, 385 00:32:56,080 --> 00:32:59,560 which is the safest way to approach any fire facility. 386 00:33:00,240 --> 00:33:04,460 Because it is backing on to the future home property, 387 00:33:04,760 --> 00:33:06,720 there is no access to the back of that property 388 00:33:06,720 --> 00:33:07,620 for fire vehicles. 389 00:33:08,280 --> 00:33:10,840 So we limit that portion of it as well. 390 00:33:11,520 --> 00:33:13,060 If we were to build a building on that site, 391 00:33:13,260 --> 00:33:15,240 it would take up the existing footprint of the building 392 00:33:15,880 --> 00:33:18,540 and the footprint of the current parking lot as well. 393 00:33:18,960 --> 00:33:21,560 And we would end up with no parking on that property as well. 394 00:33:21,640 --> 00:33:24,180 So there's a few high-level items that we looked at 395 00:33:24,180 --> 00:33:29,660 Brennan, if you want to expand on those, that put us into a limitation of why we be looking 396 00:33:29,660 --> 00:33:32,980 at a suitable fit on the existing site to itself. 397 00:33:34,640 --> 00:33:39,820 Yeah, I think in addition to that, there was a stated goal in working with the Fire Department 398 00:33:39,820 --> 00:33:45,280 to provide a single story facility, which is in addition to the drive-through base, also the best 399 00:33:45,280 --> 00:33:52,640 practice for Fire Facilities across the province, it allows for safer response for active 400 00:33:52,640 --> 00:33:56,640 duty firefighters responding to a call not having to traverse stairs in an emergency or 401 00:33:56,640 --> 00:33:57,480 rush situation. 402 00:33:58,100 --> 00:34:02,080 It's the way that most departments across the province have moved towards and there would 403 00:34:02,080 --> 00:34:06,400 not be an opportunity to fit a single single story facility with all the needs of this 404 00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:09,620 station, including the decontamination procedures on that site. 405 00:34:09,940 --> 00:34:14,240 Because the decontamination procedures are garage space that we're showing currently is already 406 00:34:14,240 --> 00:34:17,040 larger than that existing building is on its own. 407 00:34:17,280 --> 00:34:21,100 We then are adding two additional bays for the decontamination garage and would still need 408 00:34:21,100 --> 00:34:23,540 find space to host the administrative functions. 409 00:34:24,600 --> 00:34:25,060 OK, thank you. 410 00:34:25,280 --> 00:34:27,700 I just wanted to hear if you had looked at it itself. 411 00:34:27,880 --> 00:34:33,720 I know the laneway in the back and the funeral home, obviously it's pretty hard to 412 00:34:33,720 --> 00:34:36,220 go there and what else you could possibly do there. 413 00:34:36,560 --> 00:34:37,600 So, thank you for that one. 414 00:34:37,660 --> 00:34:45,640 The other one was I guess the site conditions, the ground conditions on 655, we think you 415 00:34:45,640 --> 00:34:48,640 which is a little bit on that one. 416 00:34:48,920 --> 00:34:52,500 Soil samples, because we did do some, not taking years ago, 417 00:34:53,340 --> 00:34:59,680 and it's not the best soil to have anything constructed on, 418 00:34:59,880 --> 00:35:03,080 because I think if we did look at, 419 00:35:03,100 --> 00:35:04,980 or possible, 420 00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:09,120 recreational facility there. 421 00:35:10,340 --> 00:35:14,540 So, obviously, are you taking an information that we presently have 422 00:35:14,540 --> 00:35:17,360 and reviewing it and further tests will have to be done? 423 00:35:19,780 --> 00:35:23,900 Yeah, through your worship. That's correct. So on that property, 424 00:35:24,280 --> 00:35:29,100 where we're looking to place the fire station is not exactly where the proposed location for the 425 00:35:29,100 --> 00:35:34,060 rec center was. Now, the soils are similar in condition across that whole area there. We do 426 00:35:34,060 --> 00:35:38,540 know that there's tailings, but we do know that there's beb rock as well below those tailings. 427 00:35:39,340 --> 00:35:44,840 So we have taken the time to have considerations on what type of ground improvements would be 428 00:35:44,840 --> 00:35:50,300 necessary on that property, whether it be, you know, micro piles, 429 00:35:50,460 --> 00:35:52,640 helical piles, ram dagger appears. 430 00:35:52,820 --> 00:35:56,320 There are different systems that allow us to build on that property. 431 00:35:56,520 --> 00:35:59,500 So we don't have that much concern for what's there. 432 00:35:59,800 --> 00:36:01,960 Yes, additional testing will have to be taken. 433 00:36:02,080 --> 00:36:05,980 When a site doesn't have a purpose built, our purpose design facility, 434 00:36:06,820 --> 00:36:09,260 we don't necessarily know when a geotech consultant goes in there, 435 00:36:09,280 --> 00:36:11,220 what they're looking to design for in the future. 436 00:36:11,700 --> 00:36:14,720 So as we propose what the footprint of the building looks like 437 00:36:14,720 --> 00:36:19,080 further sampling would be done at the footprint of the building, but also in the drive 438 00:36:19,080 --> 00:36:23,500 aisles, the parking lots, so that we have those soil conditions so that our civil and 439 00:36:23,500 --> 00:36:28,700 our structural teams can develop the design to work alongside that as well. In saying that 440 00:36:28,700 --> 00:36:32,800 the downtown property, we would have the same situation. We'd be doing testing on that property 441 00:36:32,800 --> 00:36:38,060 as well and we don't know exactly what's on there as well. So there's always risks with 442 00:36:38,060 --> 00:36:44,420 ground in any type of development when we know it's not a greenfield site. So we'd be 443 00:36:44,420 --> 00:36:49,180 the same time on the downtown property as well. But to your point, you're absolutely right, 444 00:36:49,300 --> 00:36:53,880 there would be further testing on that property to have a full understanding of what the soil 445 00:36:53,880 --> 00:36:59,180 is entail for us. Okay, because anything can be built anywhere. It's just a don't anything with it 446 00:36:59,180 --> 00:37:05,580 comes across. Correct. And that's the always the nervous part. Yeah, we can build it. It's just 447 00:37:05,580 --> 00:37:11,660 it's going to constitute a lot more. So I'm glad you have that. I expected to use to do that. And 448 00:37:11,660 --> 00:37:20,720 And then the property that you're talking on 65 is owned by the mine, or is that city property? 449 00:37:23,680 --> 00:37:25,900 Yeah, that is city owned property. 450 00:37:26,080 --> 00:37:29,980 That location that we're at the furthest south end of the city. 451 00:37:30,000 --> 00:37:31,540 Any on portion of that property? 452 00:37:33,920 --> 00:37:39,840 So I guess MTOs any development they're looking at doing, would not? 453 00:37:40,340 --> 00:37:44,820 Yeah, there has been preliminary conversation with the MTO on the roadway expansion 454 00:37:44,820 --> 00:37:49,000 works there, as well as how that would tie into our driveway and expansion works 455 00:37:49,000 --> 00:37:55,880 along that area. And the same similar conversations have happened with utility authorities as well 456 00:37:55,880 --> 00:37:59,020 to make sure that we can get servicing to that portion of the piece of property 457 00:37:59,020 --> 00:38:02,780 because there is not currently servicing to that spot, that's the location. 458 00:38:03,760 --> 00:38:06,420 It's big enough to understand that. 459 00:38:06,580 --> 00:38:11,220 And of course, it's the exit of the site for emergency vehicles, 460 00:38:12,220 --> 00:38:16,060 whether where they're going to be going up to the corner six or two five 461 00:38:16,060 --> 00:38:17,380 and I'll go to go that way. 462 00:38:18,020 --> 00:38:22,260 It's not too worried about having getting their firemen there, 463 00:38:22,360 --> 00:38:25,720 because they're going to be already on the job at the site. 464 00:38:25,720 --> 00:38:34,560 So, look at not that's good. I know the intersection is scheduled this summer for construction. 465 00:38:35,880 --> 00:38:41,020 So, that would have to, I think, would have to take in the consideration as well. 466 00:38:41,580 --> 00:38:48,300 What we're going to do with that intersection, if we incorporate the fire hall there as those 467 00:38:50,350 --> 00:38:55,550 fire trucks and the aerials and what adults navigating that corner. 468 00:38:55,550 --> 00:39:06,770 The transports can do it now, so I don't think there is any issue, but at least it's going to be taken part of the reconstruction of the connecting link in that area. 469 00:39:07,550 --> 00:39:08,270 Thank you. 470 00:39:08,690 --> 00:39:09,550 Appreciate it. 471 00:39:10,530 --> 00:39:10,970 Thank you. 472 00:39:11,310 --> 00:39:11,630 Thank you. 473 00:39:12,150 --> 00:39:17,030 Raise an interesting point there that it would align well with the reconstruction. 474 00:39:17,330 --> 00:39:20,370 That's being planned for that intersection as well if that were the site that we're preferred. 475 00:39:21,350 --> 00:39:23,610 I have Councillor Feldman and then Councillor Black, go ahead. 476 00:39:25,830 --> 00:39:26,150 Thank you. 477 00:39:26,150 --> 00:39:33,250 Thank you for the presentation, and this is a very important project because we do want 478 00:39:33,250 --> 00:39:41,530 our firefighters having best possible facilities because they do humans work, so this 479 00:39:41,530 --> 00:39:42,430 is very important. 480 00:39:43,510 --> 00:39:46,370 And all you mentioned has part of the whole process. 481 00:39:46,570 --> 00:39:52,610 You consult it with probably the chief and other members of his group. 482 00:39:52,610 --> 00:40:02,130 And I wasn't sure if I heard that these were the only two sites or did you hear like maybe other possible locations. 483 00:40:03,190 --> 00:40:10,070 Because I know I did hear some possible locations from members of the firefighters. 484 00:40:10,830 --> 00:40:16,930 And so I'm just curious if there were any other ones considered other than these two. 485 00:40:18,370 --> 00:40:21,170 So we were only tasked to look at the two properties. 486 00:40:21,650 --> 00:40:24,930 We were tasked to look at any other property within this 487 00:40:25,890 --> 00:40:27,630 recommendation that we're providing today. 488 00:40:28,170 --> 00:40:29,550 So if there were other sites, 489 00:40:30,450 --> 00:40:33,610 not part of our investigation or our study at this time. 490 00:40:35,650 --> 00:40:36,950 Perhaps Councilor Feldman before you continue. 491 00:40:37,070 --> 00:40:39,610 I could see that Mr. Town would like to add on to that response. 492 00:40:39,830 --> 00:40:40,650 Go ahead, Mr. Town. 493 00:40:41,310 --> 00:40:42,330 Do you worship? So yes. 494 00:40:43,910 --> 00:40:45,250 So we did get creative. 495 00:40:45,490 --> 00:40:47,610 We did pitch a few sites to the chief. 496 00:40:47,610 --> 00:40:52,430 But again, he reminded us that there's a factor of response time for certain areas that we 497 00:40:52,430 --> 00:40:56,910 need to factor in as well, because at one point, yes, we did go to the very West and 498 00:40:56,910 --> 00:41:00,510 the timins to look at it, but then again, it doesn't meet the need of the downtown course, 499 00:41:00,630 --> 00:41:05,490 so we're affecting the response times of the central station itself and where it needs to get to. 500 00:41:06,090 --> 00:41:12,750 That's why we were limited. We did identify another spot, but again, it's not the most ideal, 501 00:41:12,750 --> 00:41:17,410 because it's the home of your park, the home of your park. 502 00:41:17,910 --> 00:41:19,950 It's the only other large piece of municipal property 503 00:41:19,950 --> 00:41:21,790 that we could do something there. 504 00:41:21,870 --> 00:41:23,390 But again, it's not feasible. 505 00:41:23,650 --> 00:41:25,110 At the end of the day, it's the park. 506 00:41:25,350 --> 00:41:27,730 It's a central feature within this community that 507 00:41:27,730 --> 00:41:29,470 that's something that we weren't going to entertain. 508 00:41:29,810 --> 00:41:31,970 So that's why that's, we battered that one 509 00:41:31,970 --> 00:41:34,510 out of the consideration we'll say. 510 00:41:34,810 --> 00:41:37,350 So we were left with those two close to the downtown core 511 00:41:37,350 --> 00:41:40,350 and with the ability to either amalgamate the Schumacher Hall. 512 00:41:40,350 --> 00:41:44,090 So we knew we were very limited just based on the response 513 00:41:44,090 --> 00:41:46,090 tied that the fire department needs. 514 00:41:47,230 --> 00:41:48,870 Thank you, I can appreciate that. 515 00:41:48,890 --> 00:41:51,510 I mean, the Hollinger Park was one that was raised 516 00:41:53,130 --> 00:41:54,770 from members of the department. 517 00:41:55,950 --> 00:41:57,650 And I wanted to leave it to the experts. 518 00:41:57,830 --> 00:42:00,130 I'm not here to start debating the merits of sites. 519 00:42:00,390 --> 00:42:03,990 I just think that the men and women that are doing that job. 520 00:42:04,190 --> 00:42:07,050 I want to respect them to give their input. 521 00:42:07,050 --> 00:42:13,270 because it's important and I'm sure it was taken, but I just wanted to confirm that this was 522 00:42:13,270 --> 00:42:22,850 all considered and so thank you for that. I have one more question. Have you started considering 523 00:42:24,770 --> 00:42:27,650 costing for the building or were not there yet? 524 00:42:29,800 --> 00:42:32,280 A three year worship, so we're not there yet. 525 00:42:32,280 --> 00:42:39,340 And this stage of the project allows us to move into that next phase of work to get to the 526 00:42:39,340 --> 00:42:42,400 point where we do start looking at costing in in greater detail. 527 00:42:43,460 --> 00:42:48,380 We know that with either site there is site specific costs that have to be developed from 528 00:42:48,380 --> 00:42:48,720 that. 529 00:42:49,120 --> 00:42:54,400 So as we look to select a site, that will allow us to understand what the the costing looks 530 00:42:54,400 --> 00:42:54,900 like. 531 00:42:54,940 --> 00:42:58,940 We're also at a point where at schematic design on the building design. 532 00:42:58,940 --> 00:43:03,080 And as we a little bit further along, it provides greater detail for us to get into that 533 00:43:03,080 --> 00:43:08,940 costing. So we haven't considered any costing specifically at this point while keeping in mind, 534 00:43:09,580 --> 00:43:15,220 you know, our historical knowledge of projects like this, I'm definitely understanding of where things may be trending, 535 00:43:15,520 --> 00:43:17,400 but nothing formally completed at this time. 536 00:43:18,320 --> 00:43:21,560 And I just like one follow-up question regarding the costing. 537 00:43:21,920 --> 00:43:25,400 I don't know how familiar you are with construction in Timons, 538 00:43:25,400 --> 00:43:36,040 But we often hear around this table and I don't like hearing it, but I want to raise it right now about, you know, the Timmins tax about the cost of construction in Timmins. 539 00:43:36,980 --> 00:43:46,140 And I will fully support this project, but it is not just open season on the resonance of Timmins that this gets built at any cost. 540 00:43:46,140 --> 00:44:03,060 And a lot may, at this point, just be urban legend or scuttle, but, you know, I'm hearing some numbers being floated around that it's two to three times the cost to build here in Timons for this particular structure and similar facilities and southern Ontario. 541 00:44:03,060 --> 00:44:10,460 And I think we have to be very prepared when that scope comes out to control that. 542 00:44:10,560 --> 00:44:16,140 It's just not simply we're going to charge more because it's Timons. 543 00:44:16,820 --> 00:44:23,080 We need this facility obviously, but I think it has to be managed very carefully and I'm 544 00:44:23,080 --> 00:44:29,320 just giving you the warning now because we are facing that incessantly and it's something 545 00:44:29,320 --> 00:44:37,280 that we want to be aware of prior to getting in to costing and so on. So I did want to make 546 00:44:37,280 --> 00:44:41,680 that suggestion tonight. So thank you very much. 547 00:44:43,820 --> 00:44:45,680 Thank you Councillor and let's go over to 548 00:44:45,680 --> 00:44:53,180 Councillor Black. Thank you, our ship. I have a few questions or points throughout that I'll go through. 549 00:44:53,660 --> 00:44:58,860 First is this is for information only tonight. There's no vote to proceed with this. 550 00:45:03,260 --> 00:45:03,740 Second, 551 00:45:07,200 --> 00:45:18,600 I guess I'll say fundamentally I'm not opposed to the site, but fundamentally I'm not in favor of the site yet, because I don't think I have the information to say whether I'm opposed or in favor to the site. 552 00:45:19,900 --> 00:45:26,820 I guess for me, it's slightly disappointing because it's not what I thought we were doing at the stage when we talked about this at budget time. 553 00:45:26,820 --> 00:45:32,320 I thought you guys would be kind of open-season on locations and doing a review of the city 554 00:45:33,220 --> 00:45:38,720 and what possible sites would make sense looking at call locations and service locations. 555 00:45:39,420 --> 00:45:43,900 So I guess I'll ask just for public awareness a few questions to the chief. 556 00:45:44,400 --> 00:45:49,880 In this if we proceed with this station as a single station full-time 557 00:45:50,880 --> 00:45:58,080 ten minutes volunteers, shoe macro volunteers, and one location, where do and will the full-time 558 00:45:58,080 --> 00:46:01,480 firefighters respond to fire calls in the city of ten minutes? 559 00:46:04,100 --> 00:46:08,440 Thank you. The full-time firefighters will respond to any white. 560 00:46:08,560 --> 00:46:08,940 We'll see. 561 00:46:10,100 --> 00:46:13,800 Where will the ten minutes volunteers are what it's currently? The ten minutes volunteers out of the 562 00:46:13,800 --> 00:46:18,440 ten minutes station respond to, will they respond to shoe macro calls as well if it's 563 00:46:18,440 --> 00:46:23,280 amalgamated station or. Correct. Okay, and the Schumacher volunteers will respond to. 564 00:46:24,700 --> 00:46:30,280 Timons. I like this as well. Yeah. So my follow-up question to that either to yourself, 565 00:46:30,560 --> 00:46:38,600 chief or to your group either one has discussions take in place about this proposed location with 566 00:46:39,380 --> 00:46:48,420 a full-time members. And by no means do I want to suggest that our members should dictate where our 567 00:46:48,420 --> 00:46:59,680 Or concerns or pros or cons that I think so have we talked with a the full-time members be the Timmants volunteers and see the Schumacher volunteers to see whether they are 568 00:47:01,240 --> 00:47:02,360 Ameniable to 569 00:47:02,880 --> 00:47:04,120 That change in response 570 00:47:04,920 --> 00:47:09,100 Required from them and that expanded service area and 571 00:47:09,100 --> 00:47:15,460 Any pros or cons of the location itself from their point of view and thank you. We're true 572 00:47:15,460 --> 00:47:29,620 Councillor, we, the Timmins volunteers and the Schumerke volunteers will be responding to the same place as they are right now at the back up to the full-time stations, which are, I think it has to be respond to Ward 3, Ward 5, 573 00:47:30,120 --> 00:47:30,520 because Ward 1. 574 00:47:30,620 --> 00:47:32,760 So currently the Schumerke responds to Timmins, as well. 575 00:47:35,740 --> 00:47:36,280 Appreciate that. 576 00:47:37,780 --> 00:47:47,140 And then my next question is, and this is perhaps the black question mark of the future 577 00:47:47,140 --> 00:47:52,860 of the city of Timmons, but obviously there has been publicly some presentations via the 578 00:47:52,860 --> 00:47:57,340 chamber on terms of future-mind activity and future-mind planning. 579 00:47:58,460 --> 00:48:05,880 In the area, I'll say, between haulage or pick currently and the McIntyre area, and this 580 00:48:05,880 --> 00:48:08,920 has been made of public presentation, so it is what it is. 581 00:48:09,140 --> 00:48:18,420 Have we had any consultation with the mining company as to this location and whether that's 582 00:48:18,420 --> 00:48:21,680 potentially interfering, and I understand we don't want to put things on hold for what 583 00:48:21,680 --> 00:48:26,240 may come from a mine, but I also don't want to build a 30 to 40 year facility, and what 584 00:48:26,240 --> 00:48:34,220 get swallowed up in 10 years. So I'm just curious to that. Yeah, we've had preliminary discussions 585 00:48:34,220 --> 00:48:39,920 with our partners at Discovery, but I see Mr. Tam feels like he'd like to take this one on, 586 00:48:39,960 --> 00:48:45,320 so go ahead, Mr. Tam. Through your worship, so again, just to reiterate what the Mayor just said, 587 00:48:45,720 --> 00:48:52,120 we've had some preliminary discussions on some of the activity that Discovery is coordinating 588 00:48:52,120 --> 00:48:57,240 or planning their next iterations for the next six amount of years, because the same thing goes 589 00:48:57,240 --> 00:49:02,300 with the Connecting Link project, all that other stuff. So we're trying to get to the table 590 00:49:02,300 --> 00:49:07,420 with them to understand what their plan is because at the end of the day we want to make sure 591 00:49:07,420 --> 00:49:11,680 as a misplay that we're spending the right dollars now and not turn it on and tear it up in 592 00:49:11,680 --> 00:49:17,340 three years we'll see. So we're trying to engage on going discussions and have these full 593 00:49:17,340 --> 00:49:21,780 some discussions on a regular basis, we're just waiting for them to get themselves organized 594 00:49:21,780 --> 00:49:23,720 as well, just to kind of get back to us and give us 595 00:49:23,720 --> 00:49:25,620 from plans themselves. 596 00:49:28,420 --> 00:49:31,340 So I guess what I'll say is I'm a little more willing 597 00:49:31,340 --> 00:49:35,700 to repair the connecting link that is damaged and needs 598 00:49:35,700 --> 00:49:38,080 to be repaired to continue to use it while the mine sorts 599 00:49:38,080 --> 00:49:40,060 of what they're going to do over the next 10 years. 600 00:49:40,840 --> 00:49:42,840 I don't know what the age of our current fire hose. 601 00:49:46,460 --> 00:49:48,360 Sorry, I thank you for the counselor. 602 00:49:48,600 --> 00:49:49,840 It was built in 1957. 603 00:49:50,700 --> 00:49:57,840 57 so we're 70 going on 70 years next year. I'm less inclined to put a 604 00:49:57,840 --> 00:50:04,480 facility that may last 70 years in a potential future mining location. So that's 605 00:50:04,480 --> 00:50:07,000 my concern with that and I understand no one's sitting in this room right now 606 00:50:07,000 --> 00:50:10,820 can tell us what's going to be in the future of discovery or not. I just think 607 00:50:10,820 --> 00:50:13,960 that needs to be a major consideration when we're talking about building a 608 00:50:14,600 --> 00:50:18,760 foundational piece of infrastructure in an area that is at least near a 609 00:50:19,360 --> 00:50:23,980 to what is currently being discussed and considered in the community. 610 00:50:25,580 --> 00:50:27,420 So for that, I have some hesitations. 611 00:50:28,480 --> 00:50:34,040 And then I'll circle back, you've clarified that members will still respond to the same areas. 612 00:50:34,380 --> 00:50:40,080 Have we, or have yourselves consulted with the members in terms of pros, cons? 613 00:50:40,460 --> 00:50:46,800 When you were collecting your list of pros and cons, do we consult with the frontline members to hear their pros and cons? 614 00:50:46,800 --> 00:50:51,720 of I guess the two locations you were presented with because you wouldn't have taken any other 615 00:50:51,720 --> 00:50:56,320 locations because that was an in your purview but was there any engagement done with current 616 00:50:56,320 --> 00:51:01,020 associations, full-time or volunteer in developing your pros and cons list? 617 00:51:03,200 --> 00:51:07,680 Through your worship I can answer this partially and then if the chief wants to expand on it I 618 00:51:07,680 --> 00:51:15,140 allow them to as well. So our consultation was pretty minimal in the sense of you know meeting 619 00:51:15,140 --> 00:51:17,260 while we were touring the existing facilities, 620 00:51:17,960 --> 00:51:19,640 but while we were touring the existing facilities, 621 00:51:20,600 --> 00:51:23,000 we did have those conversations that were more building specific 622 00:51:23,000 --> 00:51:25,620 and the challenges that we see within those buildings. 623 00:51:25,700 --> 00:51:28,260 We do know that the people that are kind of front-line, 624 00:51:28,620 --> 00:51:31,160 see the challenges every day, you know, 625 00:51:31,200 --> 00:51:33,480 know differently than the chief and the deputies that are in those buildings 626 00:51:33,480 --> 00:51:36,860 in here as well, right? So that was more of the conversation 627 00:51:36,860 --> 00:51:42,500 that we had regarding that and I'll let the chief speak on the site side of it as well. 628 00:51:44,040 --> 00:51:44,840 Thank you. 629 00:51:45,520 --> 00:51:52,320 Councillor, the international association firefighters, they provided a, they did a study through 630 00:51:52,320 --> 00:51:57,360 timings as far as call response times, and all that stuff in there, it was, it was a lot 631 00:51:57,360 --> 00:51:58,920 of work and a lot of great information. 632 00:52:00,240 --> 00:52:06,760 We have looked at these possibilities, there are a number of things that we were looking 633 00:52:06,760 --> 00:52:12,180 at, one would be in the future of timings and where the future is taking us, when we're expecting 634 00:52:12,180 --> 00:52:12,660 growth. 635 00:52:13,220 --> 00:52:22,760 as well as different supports that were putting through town to be able to make us get to the west end of town, for instance, 636 00:52:22,980 --> 00:52:25,000 like the lighting system to be all green. 637 00:52:25,240 --> 00:52:25,840 That sort of thing. 638 00:52:26,500 --> 00:52:29,500 And a four-laning six or fifty-five, so we can get there easy enough. 639 00:52:30,000 --> 00:52:40,820 Sort of thing. It was a lot of great information. There are particular portions of that study that aren't quite 640 00:52:40,820 --> 00:52:49,000 related directly involved with what it is, as far as our composition of firefighters. So it was 641 00:52:49,000 --> 00:52:57,100 looked at. The other problem is property, you know, and location of the best place to put 642 00:52:57,100 --> 00:52:59,180 this station, there's just no property available. 643 00:53:01,910 --> 00:53:02,870 Thank you for that, Chief. 644 00:53:04,590 --> 00:53:06,850 And given the responses need to go across the city, 645 00:53:06,970 --> 00:53:08,950 I'm not opposed to something that has highway access. 646 00:53:09,090 --> 00:53:12,490 I think it's a perk in terms of getting east or west 647 00:53:12,490 --> 00:53:16,290 in the city for the full-time cruise. 648 00:53:19,980 --> 00:53:23,700 I just, I would, if this was on the agenda for votes tonight, 649 00:53:24,340 --> 00:53:26,980 I couldn't support it, not because I don't want to support it, 650 00:53:27,200 --> 00:53:28,560 or that I won't support it in the end. 651 00:53:28,560 --> 00:53:32,760 I just don't think that there's been enough of that kind of information 652 00:53:32,760 --> 00:53:34,580 along the questions that I've asked. 653 00:53:34,920 --> 00:53:37,900 Even starting with the two sites, and I guess a third question, 654 00:53:38,240 --> 00:53:41,500 or another question would be, you mentioned current structure 655 00:53:41,500 --> 00:53:44,840 of the E-FIRE service right now. 656 00:53:45,040 --> 00:53:48,220 We're bonding out of one full-time fire hall, 657 00:53:48,560 --> 00:53:52,940 and I know in a zero-boat operating a fire hall, 658 00:53:53,200 --> 00:53:55,520 or at all throw that out there now as I preface this question, 659 00:53:56,180 --> 00:53:58,160 but would it make more sense given the growth 660 00:53:58,160 --> 00:54:01,780 to end dynamics, to have two potential fire halls. 661 00:54:01,860 --> 00:54:03,920 Can we do that with the same cruise, 662 00:54:04,000 --> 00:54:05,780 divide, and cruise, and still responding 663 00:54:06,220 --> 00:54:08,520 from both stations to all calls, potentially, 664 00:54:09,180 --> 00:54:12,700 but would you be able to get cruise, two calls sooner, 665 00:54:12,940 --> 00:54:14,180 or do you need that full compliment? 666 00:54:14,220 --> 00:54:16,420 That is at the station to start fighting the fire anyways. 667 00:54:18,220 --> 00:54:20,320 I'm just wondering what the breadth of this scope 668 00:54:20,320 --> 00:54:22,740 versus narrowing in, and we've dictated two sites, 669 00:54:22,880 --> 00:54:24,100 one of them we don't even own, 670 00:54:24,800 --> 00:54:26,660 and don't can't have the whole property 671 00:54:26,660 --> 00:54:30,980 without purchasing properties so that rules out that site off the start so we've really looked 672 00:54:30,980 --> 00:54:36,740 at one site in terms of making a decision that's going to potentially last the next 673 00:54:36,740 --> 00:54:41,920 70 years of fighting fires across the city of Devon. So I'm just wondering what structural 674 00:54:41,920 --> 00:54:44,180 changes we've possibly contemplated in that. 675 00:54:47,120 --> 00:54:53,280 Thank you. I'm not sure where I should be going with this but there is a possibility 676 00:54:53,280 --> 00:54:58,780 with future growth of the city and the future expectations is where the city is going 677 00:54:58,780 --> 00:55:06,280 ago is that we could look at multiple stations with multiple full-time people in those stations 678 00:55:06,820 --> 00:55:11,460 to respond to in a more efficient way than how we're doing it now with the composite 679 00:55:11,460 --> 00:55:12,760 part of it. 680 00:55:12,880 --> 00:55:15,400 And composite being full-time with volunteers. 681 00:55:17,140 --> 00:55:21,260 Yeah, and I'm note by no means was that question directed, should we change your volunteer 682 00:55:21,260 --> 00:55:22,280 hybrid structure? 683 00:55:22,980 --> 00:55:24,100 I don't want to get into that again. 684 00:55:25,620 --> 00:55:32,640 The final point I guess I'll make is that before this comes back, I would like to see some 685 00:55:32,640 --> 00:55:33,480 of the things that are referenced. 686 00:55:33,660 --> 00:55:39,680 We talked about response times, both for the current dynamics of Timmons and B for the 687 00:55:39,680 --> 00:55:40,220 plan group. 688 00:55:40,440 --> 00:55:45,440 So I would like to see the reports that I believe have likely been done internally, but to 689 00:55:45,440 --> 00:55:50,020 say, hey, these are the locations and these are where the major concerns are response 690 00:55:50,020 --> 00:55:58,420 times now, and these will improve or not improve with this location, as well as what we know 691 00:55:58,420 --> 00:56:03,460 we're trying to develop into Melrose and push north along that area and there's a lot more 692 00:56:03,460 --> 00:56:09,460 development in the west end of the community, historically over recent years, so I get the dynamics 693 00:56:09,460 --> 00:56:15,360 of wanting quick access to serve those areas as well. I'm glad we're not making this decision 694 00:56:15,360 --> 00:56:18,460 tonight because I just don't feel I have the information to get behind that. And I want 695 00:56:18,460 --> 00:56:22,580 to, as I said, I'm not opposed to this location. I won't go on record saying I'm opposed to 696 00:56:22,580 --> 00:56:28,180 it yet, because I do believe it has its benefits in terms of access across the community, 697 00:56:28,400 --> 00:56:31,560 but I'd just like to see a little more information before we get to that next step and 698 00:56:31,560 --> 00:56:36,280 see the wholesome picture that we've considered that I would strongly encourage that we have an 699 00:56:36,280 --> 00:56:42,720 in-camera meeting or at least the city officials at the top end of the city have that meeting with 700 00:56:42,720 --> 00:56:48,760 our mining company and fully understand what potential is in the next, I know we don't 701 00:56:48,760 --> 00:56:52,260 like saying, well, they might do something in 10, 20 years, but this is a 70 year 702 00:56:52,260 --> 00:56:52,620 facility. 703 00:56:53,000 --> 00:56:54,820 So it has to be taken into consideration in my mind. 704 00:56:57,420 --> 00:56:57,820 Thank you. 705 00:56:57,860 --> 00:57:00,780 Are there any other questions for our presenters while they're here? 706 00:57:01,920 --> 00:57:02,640 What's the extent of it? 707 00:57:04,120 --> 00:57:06,880 I've got no problem with the new fire hall. 708 00:57:08,140 --> 00:57:11,780 I think we need to, but how big is the current fire hall square footage? 709 00:57:15,970 --> 00:57:29,750 Do you have that or, but they're so, so then the easiest way to answer it is, is, is this fight, there's this new firehold going to be twice the size or three times the size of the current haul. 710 00:57:32,600 --> 00:57:43,820 By estimation, it would be likely in like the administrative and cruise bases likely on the double side on the garage space probably closer to the triple side, just because the current garage spaces are undersized. 711 00:57:44,640 --> 00:57:51,840 And they don't have that drive-through capability which increases the size of the garage base because you do have those clearances on both the front and the back of the base. 712 00:57:52,300 --> 00:57:57,120 And we're adding the decontamination base for health and safety protocols which don't currently exist. 713 00:57:57,380 --> 00:58:01,040 So on the garage side, likely closer to the order of magnitude to three times. 714 00:58:01,520 --> 00:58:04,380 But on the crew would administrative side closer to that double number. 715 00:58:05,980 --> 00:58:11,360 So just an observation, and I'm not educated in this, but just from what you're saying. 716 00:58:11,360 --> 00:58:18,140 That's why you can't find a piece of property as far as unconcerned because you want to build something three times the size and that's going to be an issue. 717 00:58:18,760 --> 00:58:25,360 So that's, you know what I mean? Like we need a new haul, but at the same time, like how many bays are going to be in this haul? 718 00:58:27,850 --> 00:58:28,570 Through your worship. 719 00:58:29,450 --> 00:58:40,810 Yeah, so the new, the new station will have three double length bays. So for six apparatus, and then two additional double length bays for the decontamination, which would not be where any vehicles are stored full time. 720 00:58:40,810 --> 00:58:42,550 that's purely for the purposes of washing, 721 00:58:43,030 --> 00:58:44,550 and decontaminating equipment and vehicles. 722 00:58:45,330 --> 00:58:49,050 So six apparatus parking spaces within the garage. 723 00:58:50,330 --> 00:58:51,810 Three-bit, three-vays double length. 724 00:58:53,270 --> 00:58:54,090 Do you have a final question? 725 00:58:54,330 --> 00:58:55,110 Can I take a start of it? 726 00:58:55,630 --> 00:58:55,930 Pardon? 727 00:58:56,110 --> 00:58:57,210 Do you have a final question? 728 00:58:57,670 --> 00:58:59,870 No, just I think that's the issue right there. 729 00:59:00,910 --> 00:59:02,590 That's why you can't find any property, 730 00:59:04,010 --> 00:59:05,790 because you're limited when you want 731 00:59:05,790 --> 00:59:07,490 to triple the size of a fire all. 732 00:59:07,810 --> 00:59:08,770 You want to have something else? 733 00:59:08,770 --> 00:59:09,170 That's a crit. 734 00:59:09,170 --> 00:59:09,890 It has a question. 735 00:59:10,510 --> 00:59:14,850 What's that comments or questions? You can comment or question. There's nothing in the procedure of buying it. 736 00:59:14,850 --> 00:59:19,510 I think I was just asking if you have enough question for presenters because they are here on their time. 737 00:59:20,190 --> 00:59:22,010 I just want to make sure we get one more question. 738 00:59:22,010 --> 00:59:22,070 Just one more question. 739 00:59:22,730 --> 00:59:23,510 One of your questions? 740 00:59:23,850 --> 00:59:24,150 The same comment. 741 00:59:24,410 --> 00:59:30,130 Through you to the CAO, we put aside $500,000 in the budget for this. 742 00:59:30,330 --> 00:59:33,890 Is this part of the $500,000 to the beginning of it? 743 00:59:35,150 --> 00:59:35,670 It's really nice. 744 00:59:36,430 --> 00:59:39,670 three years or so. Yes, this is part of the thank you. 745 00:59:40,590 --> 00:59:41,990 Councillor Curlie, a final question? 746 00:59:42,370 --> 00:59:42,850 Thank you. 747 00:59:43,630 --> 00:59:46,990 What would you time frame in order to come back? 748 00:59:47,150 --> 00:59:49,550 I mean, I'm worried about the soil condition, obviously. 749 00:59:50,330 --> 00:59:51,770 On that side, it's always been a concern. 750 00:59:52,370 --> 00:59:55,850 So what is your time frame coming back with those results? 751 00:59:56,170 --> 00:59:59,970 And, of course, it gives the city of opportunity to sit down with the mine. 752 01:00:00,000 --> 01:00:22,420 In and seeing as Councillor Black had mentioned, what's their future hold? It's something to bring back here, so I guess it gives us an opportunity to look at other sites as well, not saying they have, at least a little bit more input into it. So do you have a time frame? 753 01:00:24,920 --> 01:00:30,940 It wouldn't be fair for me to put a timeline on third party individuals that have to be part of those studies. 754 01:00:31,620 --> 01:00:35,420 I think it's fair that we could find out what their timeframes are to complete that work. 755 01:00:35,840 --> 01:00:41,920 If we were elected to do that, but we were talking about other people doing the testing, right? 756 01:00:41,960 --> 01:00:44,400 It wouldn't be our office specifically doing the testing. 757 01:00:44,560 --> 01:00:48,580 It is third party engineering groups and consultants that look at those details specifically. 758 01:00:48,580 --> 01:00:53,560 So we need to convey with that to understand what their availability is. 759 01:00:57,630 --> 01:01:00,530 Thank you, are there any other questions on this presentation? 760 01:01:02,230 --> 01:01:08,290 All right, well, understanding that there are still some conversations to be had at our level with some of our local partners. 761 01:01:09,190 --> 01:01:10,490 That will inform your timelines. 762 01:01:10,810 --> 01:01:15,870 We'll try to get on that immediately so that we can bring back whatever relevant information we can to you. 763 01:01:16,050 --> 01:01:17,710 I'm very excited about this project. 764 01:01:17,850 --> 01:01:19,470 Thank you for bringing this forward. 765 01:01:19,470 --> 01:01:23,670 obviously there are still some question marks, but it sounds like we're looking for information 766 01:01:23,670 --> 01:01:27,970 in data from the city side, so we'll make sure that we get that to Council for their 767 01:01:27,970 --> 01:01:28,730 consideration as well. 768 01:01:28,890 --> 01:01:29,790 Thank you. 769 01:01:30,030 --> 01:01:30,330 Thank you. 770 01:01:30,630 --> 01:01:31,290 Thank you, Council. 771 01:01:31,410 --> 01:01:32,290 Thank you, staff, as well. 772 01:01:32,870 --> 01:01:33,410 Thank you. 773 01:01:42,620 --> 01:01:47,160 All right, that brings us to the next item on the agenda being 5C, the Comprehensive Transit Master 774 01:01:47,160 --> 01:01:47,620 Plan. 775 01:01:47,840 --> 01:01:49,560 And this is presented by Mr. Krasal. 776 01:01:49,740 --> 01:01:50,280 Go ahead. 777 01:01:51,940 --> 01:01:52,400 Good evening. 778 01:01:52,680 --> 01:01:53,660 Your worship in Council. 779 01:01:53,660 --> 01:02:08,800 This report for 48 tonight is asking Council to approve the Council's approval in awarding the Transit Master Plan in integrated road optimization to GANET Fleming Canada ULC for the amount of $148,866. 780 01:02:10,320 --> 01:02:20,180 Tim is transit with the help of growth and infrastructure department issued in RFP earlier this year to see qualified consultants to develop a master plan with this integrated route optimization. 781 01:02:20,180 --> 01:02:25,480 We did have seven submissions, and again, a Fleming Score, the highest score of 95.8. 782 01:02:26,080 --> 01:02:31,240 Tim is transit did budget 200,000 for this activity, all of which was coming from baseline 783 01:02:31,240 --> 01:02:35,020 funding through the Canadian Public Transit Fund. 784 01:02:35,580 --> 01:02:47,220 I believe the reports explains the purpose of the master plan and what we're proposing, so if 785 01:02:47,220 --> 01:02:48,940 there's any questions, I can answer those now. 786 01:02:51,020 --> 01:02:53,240 Thank you, Councillor Cranney. 787 01:02:54,780 --> 01:02:55,900 Thank you. 788 01:02:56,640 --> 01:03:03,760 The I imagine the plan is to have some public meetings to move forward this throughout the city of different locations. 789 01:03:05,760 --> 01:03:09,400 Hopefully something will work because I know we're doing connecting Lincoln. 790 01:03:10,880 --> 01:03:16,620 We have an opportunity to put in all column slip lanes, so the buses have a chance to pull over. 791 01:03:16,660 --> 01:03:17,580 Pick up passengers. 792 01:03:17,580 --> 01:03:29,980 So this year, I guess, is to avoid having such an area and by having public meetings or 793 01:03:29,980 --> 01:03:36,080 a lot of public to have input and explain how this new system is going to work versus 794 01:03:36,080 --> 01:03:38,820 where it's being done presently, correct? 795 01:03:40,360 --> 01:03:49,440 The plans a little bit more robust than just, you know, like slip lanes and such, there 796 01:03:49,440 --> 01:03:56,000 is going to be a lot of public consultation, but a large part of this plan is setting 797 01:03:56,000 --> 01:03:59,460 the standards moving forward over the next 20 to 25 years. 798 01:04:00,160 --> 01:04:07,020 It's going to start with collecting data and setting benchmarking for where you need transit 799 01:04:07,020 --> 01:04:18,600 where transit should be. Looking at specific standards for distances between stops, service 800 01:04:18,600 --> 01:04:25,160 levels for different areas of the city, how you meet those standards, how do you move 801 01:04:25,160 --> 01:04:40,000 forward with growth and it's going to encompass a large group of data sets to provide a 802 01:04:40,000 --> 01:04:46,660 road map moving forward for transit. So most we reviewed all seven submissions. 803 01:04:54,080 --> 01:04:55,140 They're 804 01:04:55,140 --> 01:05:04,640 multiple public consultations, surveys, meetings with Council, and this is going to probably 805 01:05:04,640 --> 01:05:11,760 take in the neighborhood of 15 to 18 months to complete. There's a lot of work to be done 806 01:05:11,760 --> 01:05:22,880 here, but yeah, it will be all encompassing when it comes to reviewing transit and setting 807 01:05:22,880 --> 01:05:23,840 us up in the future. 808 01:05:24,900 --> 01:05:29,040 Thank you for that because I was one of my questions at the time for having you answered that. 809 01:05:29,320 --> 01:05:36,360 So in the interim, I know I've come to Council a number of times and in improving some 810 01:05:36,360 --> 01:05:43,020 of the local transit service in the East End could not heal in what that else and lake 811 01:05:43,020 --> 01:05:50,760 field apartments, how to or are we going to be able to improve some of that service starting 812 01:05:50,760 --> 01:05:59,740 now. This is being two years off. We know we have to improve the service. So will we be able 813 01:05:59,740 --> 01:06:09,760 to enhance or provide service? Everybody to enhance it.

We would caution against service level changes at this point in time. We also 817 01:06:27,250 --> 01:06:36,310 have some internal struggles with enhancing service with staffing levels and fleet levels. 818 01:06:38,470 --> 01:06:47,950 So, you know, we're as in all of our departments, we're struggling to stay at full complement 819 01:06:47,950 --> 01:06:52,630 and just provide the service that we're supposed to, so it'll be, it'll be 820 01:06:52,630 --> 01:07:02,790 a challenge to make any changes at this point in time, so I, you know, without, I, I would 821 01:07:02,790 --> 01:07:08,450 be hesitant to commit to additional service levels unless there's some, you know, extra 822 01:07:08,450 --> 01:07:13,690 money or funding or bodies thrown at us, but we still have to find these people, which is a 823 01:07:13,690 --> 01:07:13,870 struggle. 824 01:07:17,490 --> 01:07:19,250 Thank you, and Councillor Gisborne. 825 01:07:20,430 --> 01:07:22,230 Here comes some public input. 826 01:07:23,610 --> 01:07:29,270 First of all, thank you for that answer, because enhancing the service, I just read a couple 827 01:07:29,270 --> 01:07:29,970 of posts where we have to. 828 01:07:30,000 --> 01:07:58,600 To cancel routes, because we had a shortage of drivers. You know, and that's a good, that's began a challenge right there. And the item I put on the agenda for later will discuss the challenge of recruitment as well. The question I have is, if this is going to take 15 months, my concern is the main transit building and the way the washrooms are an open concept. 829 01:07:58,600 --> 01:08:18,620 Do we have to wait 15 months, or are we going to come with some kind of a plan to go with washrooms like they have at the library where you have to go get a key and you use the washroom and bring the key back to the lady at the desk or whoever's working at the desk. 830 01:08:18,620 --> 01:08:22,780 Because you know, it's it's a disaster and they're let's admit it 831 01:08:23,260 --> 01:08:26,980 Are we are we gonna do anything in the meantime or are we waiting for? 832 01:08:28,360 --> 01:08:30,740 The master plan to come back 833 01:08:33,240 --> 01:08:36,020 Mr. Krasal, will that be part of the scope of this transit master plan? 834 01:08:38,340 --> 01:08:40,120 I know our 835 01:08:41,040 --> 01:08:42,800 infrastructure if it's like our 836 01:08:44,160 --> 01:08:49,920 Locations and and such facilities will be looked at especially in our fleet will be looked at 837 01:08:50,860 --> 01:08:58,730 specifics in regards to ergonomic designs and stuff like the washrooms I'm I'm not sure 838 01:08:59,000 --> 01:09:09,740 really you know that's you know I guess it could be looked at but you know everybody I don't know what to say on that comment 839 01:09:09,740 --> 01:09:16,840 I mean we've been struggling with all our facilities with this you know these problems it's not just the 840 01:09:16,840 --> 01:09:21,860 terminal that we struggle with.

So again, we're seeking the proposed bi-law be approved and enacted by Council to award the Waterman Lining on Riverside, 922 01:15:31,250 --> 01:15:36,150 drive, so basically surely to Metagree Bridge, to furpile construction in the amount of 923 01:15:36,150 --> 01:15:44,990 4 million, $950,000 plus HST. So again, we've experienced a lot of water main breaks on 924 01:15:44,990 --> 01:15:51,610 Riverside Drive. We have reliant portions of that portion on Riverside over the last few 925 01:15:51,610 --> 01:15:56,250 years. So in advance of preparing for the next few segments of the connecting link, 926 01:15:56,410 --> 01:16:00,890 because we realized that we didn't need to do a full scale excavation. We can get away and 927 01:16:00,890 --> 01:16:04,490 energy with water mean relining. So again, that's both the two 928 01:16:04,490 --> 01:16:09,050 clomers we want to reline. So that's the approach we would like to 929 01:16:09,050 --> 01:16:12,070 take and then that will help us save some connecting link dollars when 930 01:16:12,070 --> 01:16:16,570 we do into the actual reconstruction portion of it. Again, this was also 931 01:16:16,570 --> 01:16:20,330 an identified item in the 2026 budget. And again, we received two 932 01:16:20,330 --> 01:16:24,390 tenders and both were compliant.

I never looked at any 998 01:20:22,110 --> 01:20:25,710 grants to apply for this one. We can start looking now just to see if there is anything that we can 999 01:20:25,710 --> 01:20:29,590 natural and try to apply for, but we started this because again, it's a maintenance project 1000 01:20:29,590 --> 01:20:34,870 so a lot of our maintenance activities, the rehab stuff, we haven't really found any programs 1001 01:20:34,870 --> 01:20:35,230 that are there. 1002 01:20:35,790 --> 01:20:36,950 But we can double check again now. 1003 01:20:37,450 --> 01:20:37,890 Thank you. 1004 01:20:41,170 --> 01:20:41,750 Thank you. 1005 01:20:42,890 --> 01:20:45,910 You know, for the questions, it's going to 5G, sorry. 1006 01:20:46,490 --> 01:20:47,950 The TISDLE Reservoir Contract Extension. 1007 01:20:48,250 --> 01:20:57,890 Again, TISDLE TISDLE TISDLE TISDLE TISDLE TISDLE TISDLE TISDLE TISDLE TISDLE TISDLE TISDLE 1008 01:20:57,890 --> 01:21:03,530 for the design and construction contract administration for the Tizzle Reservoir with WSP Canada to 1009 01:21:03,530 --> 01:21:13,310 increase the contract value by $966,000 and $29 and $37 plus HST. So WSP was originally retained to 1010 01:21:13,310 --> 01:21:18,470 provide contract administration as site inspections for the Tizzle Reservoir project. So the initial 1011 01:21:18,470 --> 01:21:26,330 fee in scope was essentially to rehab and move an in-ground structure with the change and we went 1012 01:21:26,330 --> 01:21:29,490 with the more and above ground water elevated tank. 1013 01:21:30,210 --> 01:21:34,170 We changed the little change the scope to and allow for this. 1014 01:21:34,410 --> 01:21:37,810 So we now the scheduled project completion is June 30th, 1015 01:21:37,930 --> 01:21:38,570 the 2027. 1016 01:21:38,930 --> 01:21:43,170 So this is just to account for that change in the extra time needed 1017 01:21:43,170 --> 01:21:45,670 to help us get us to deliver the new reservoir 1018 01:21:46,210 --> 01:21:47,810 or elevated tank, I'll see. 1019 01:21:52,930 --> 01:21:54,450 I'll just add any questions for your clarification. 1020 01:21:58,030 --> 01:21:59,150 All right, see none? 1021 01:21:59,150 --> 01:22:07,150 So on to five H now, that's the lease with Walbitton, Walbitton, Walbitton, Walbitton claim works, and this is presented by us more. 1022 01:22:07,590 --> 01:22:08,370 Thank you for your leadership. 1023 01:22:08,810 --> 01:22:10,770 So we're asking Council to approve another lease. 1024 01:22:10,990 --> 01:22:12,270 They keep trickling in. 1025 01:22:12,290 --> 01:22:14,230 This ones with Walbitton claim works. 1026 01:22:14,390 --> 01:22:16,550 They rent space upstairs at the Mac. 1027 01:22:17,530 --> 01:22:21,230 And this lease generates 2,286 dollars plus HSD. 1028 01:22:25,230 --> 01:22:26,850 Are there any questions? 1029 01:22:26,850 --> 01:22:29,190 Let's see, now. 1030 01:22:30,430 --> 01:22:40,270 It's going to 5. I, the annual council of remuneration, presented by Ms. Moore, thank you, Worship. So, we're asking council to approve the annual report on council of remuneration. 1031 01:22:40,510 --> 01:22:50,590 This report lists all the earnings and expenses paid in 2025 for council and the boards that they're appointed to. It's an annual report that's required by the municipal act. 1032 01:22:53,100 --> 01:22:53,780 Are there any questions? 1033 01:22:56,320 --> 01:23:01,340 Okay. So, you know what's going to 5. Jay, the purchase of a new ice reserve, the ice reserve, sir, presented by Mr. Palman. 1034 01:23:03,420 --> 01:23:11,680 Thank you, Worship. Tonight, we're requesting Council Authorization to purchase a new electric 1035 01:23:11,680 --> 01:23:17,080 ice-resurforcer for use by the Recreation Department for the Mount Joy Arena. The current 1036 01:23:17,080 --> 01:23:25,580 ice-resurforcer as a model 2007 is near end of life. It is the oldest ice-resurforcer in our 1037 01:23:28,580 --> 01:23:34,300 The total of four bids received for the tender, Zamboni Company Limited was the lowest 1038 01:23:34,300 --> 01:23:40,040 bidder with a bit of $163,270 plus HST. 1039 01:23:41,240 --> 01:23:46,140 Council did budget $140,000 for the new unit in the 2026 budget. 1040 01:23:47,100 --> 01:23:52,860 The additional $23,000 will come from a project that we have to cancel the RCHDill and 1041 01:23:52,860 --> 01:23:58,220 sportsblocks. We didn't receive the necessary grant funding to proceed with that project. 1042 01:23:59,120 --> 01:24:01,980 So that's where the additional additional funds will come from. 1043 01:24:07,470 --> 01:24:09,450 Thank you. Are there any questions for clarification? 1044 01:24:11,920 --> 01:24:17,460 Seeing none, we'll go on to item 5K. Please, the temporary designated in-campment location for spring summer of 1045 01:24:17,460 --> 01:24:20,080 2026. That's presented by Mr. Landers. Go ahead. 1046 01:24:21,760 --> 01:24:27,640 Thank you. Your worship sometime ago. We were tasked with trying to find an in-campment location. 1047 01:24:27,640 --> 01:24:34,620 You'll recall last year we went through a process made some recommendations of potential sites. 1048 01:24:36,180 --> 01:24:42,380 And, and here we are again still discussing this matter. 1049 01:24:43,480 --> 01:24:46,800 The in looking at the sites that have been previously identified. 1050 01:24:48,240 --> 01:24:51,960 Two of them remained still somewhat relevant for consideration. 1051 01:24:51,960 --> 01:25:02,120 We did also speak with other landowners outside of just city owned property to try to determine 1052 01:25:02,120 --> 01:25:08,680 if there's other parcels of land that might make sense. 1053 01:25:09,280 --> 01:25:18,200 And nothing seemed to be readily available or suitable for what we're looking to do. 1054 01:25:18,200 --> 01:25:22,120 So in any event, we've got three sites that we've identified 1055 01:25:22,120 --> 01:25:26,700 two from the last time around, and then there's sort of 1056 01:25:26,700 --> 01:25:28,540 the status quo site, I guess. 1057 01:25:30,060 --> 01:25:34,680 So Pine Street, south, was identified last year. 1058 01:25:35,480 --> 01:25:39,800 And that's some distance down Pine Street. 1059 01:25:42,720 --> 01:25:46,880 There's some of the concerns with that, or just the sheer distance 1060 01:25:46,880 --> 01:25:59,740 from many services that almost individuals might require food banks access to health and 1061 01:25:59,740 --> 01:26:00,900 social supports, etc. 1062 01:26:03,320 --> 01:26:07,020 Some of the operational implications with that would be we'd 1063 01:26:07,020 --> 01:26:14,820 have to figure out some sort of transportation system or process how to ensure enforcement 1064 01:26:14,820 --> 01:26:23,240 activities occur on on a site, there would be transportation costs, or weekly cleanup costs. 1065 01:26:24,100 --> 01:26:31,420 Some level of security would probably be required and some level of land clearing might 1066 01:26:31,420 --> 01:26:32,880 be required as well. 1067 01:26:33,180 --> 01:26:41,040 We also looked at the snow storage at the snow dump on spruce street south, which is further 1068 01:26:41,040 --> 01:26:48,520 down from the current ad hoc site behind the living space. 1069 01:26:51,560 --> 01:26:57,820 So, what you know, what you have there is, you'd be pushing traffic further into another 1070 01:26:57,820 --> 01:27:02,240 neighborhood, perhaps upsetting a different neighborhood, 1071 01:27:04,520 --> 01:27:07,720 there would be some issues around, 1072 01:27:08,520 --> 01:27:16,700 Look, that's a usable site that public works uses regularly for snow dump in the winter, 1073 01:27:16,900 --> 01:27:23,520 so you'd have to clear out any encampment before that, because, frankly, we're out of spaces to put snow. 1074 01:27:24,220 --> 01:27:30,380 It was this year, but otherwise, you know, in hauling it from there, we really have to find space. 1075 01:27:31,100 --> 01:27:33,280 We use that site for hazardous waste. 1076 01:27:33,760 --> 01:27:37,040 Public works uses that site for asphalt. 1077 01:27:38,240 --> 01:27:40,700 Things that have been pulled up. 1078 01:27:41,740 --> 01:27:45,540 So there are some challenges with the current usefulness of the site. 1079 01:27:46,620 --> 01:27:50,140 Again, we'd be looking at, we'd be looking at cleanup costs, 1080 01:27:51,040 --> 01:27:52,760 safe pedestrian access. 1081 01:27:53,460 --> 01:27:55,720 I'm lighting, I think, would be a challenge as well, 1082 01:27:55,720 --> 01:28:06,280 or some basic supports there, and then we've got the status quo site, which is where 1083 01:28:06,280 --> 01:28:12,020 we, you know, where the encampment just has created itself, and that's behind the living 1084 01:28:12,020 --> 01:28:19,060 space. And the real problem, there's what's happened to the neighborhood and what this 1085 01:28:19,060 --> 01:28:23,460 accountment has done in terms of neighborhood concern, 1086 01:28:28,640 --> 01:28:33,890 it's, in looking at it, it's probably 1087 01:28:33,890 --> 01:28:38,470 likely that even if we select another site in accountment and in accountment will continue 1088 01:28:38,470 --> 01:28:45,710 to arise there, just from the, you know, if someone's, people's access to the services 1089 01:28:45,710 --> 01:28:53,010 that exist at the living space, so, you know, we don't have, I mean, unless we went to 1090 01:28:53,010 --> 01:29:01,010 week-end enforcement does well to move people out of those sorts of spaces. I'm sure it would be 1091 01:29:01,010 --> 01:29:09,650 you know the weekend issues for that neighborhood would not change as you still see much of the same. 1092 01:29:10,710 --> 01:29:15,630 If we are if Council is thinking that that's you know that 1093 01:29:20,180 --> 01:29:22,880 sorry if Council is is thinking 1094 01:29:22,880 --> 01:29:26,340 that moving an account and the most of over-talked my time. 1095 01:29:27,140 --> 01:29:32,200 An account location is inappropriate to another area. 1096 01:29:33,780 --> 01:29:39,180 Staffs have just some level of fencing that occur around there to at least give some space 1097 01:29:39,180 --> 01:29:44,860 between the residents that live there, whose yards have been used as a pass through, and 1098 01:29:44,860 --> 01:29:51,110 are, you know, on people's way to the current and camp in sight. 1099 01:29:51,110 --> 01:29:59,710 So there would be way to perhaps fence off, you don't tie vect defenses or wrap the fences in a way that. 1100 01:30:00,000 --> 01:30:14,060 You know, the people who are living in the area, you know, not watching what's happening in that lane. We not, not stuck seeing, you know, people's private lives happen publicly in an encampment. 1101 01:30:16,100 --> 01:30:19,980 So, you know, those are, those are considerations for council. 1102 01:30:19,980 --> 01:30:22,580 in any event. 1103 01:30:25,560 --> 01:30:33,120 With that site, I mean we're still going to have to clean it. We would still have to do all those things that we're currently doing. 1104 01:30:35,140 --> 01:30:40,140 And those are the three considerations that we came forward with for council. 1105 01:30:43,170 --> 01:30:46,610 Thank you. So I'll be in the forward for questions on that and we'll start with Councillor Black. 1106 01:30:48,980 --> 01:30:55,240 Thank you, Your Worship. First question is the recommendation is to ask Council for Direction 1107 01:30:55,240 --> 01:31:04,440 Ice soon. We need a resolution for this for like to designate a site as the preferred 1108 01:31:04,440 --> 01:31:09,980 in-campain site. So my question is will we be adding that tonight because we're going to be 1109 01:31:09,980 --> 01:31:17,380 into spring melt soon and assuming that there's consensus tonight on one of the sites. 1110 01:31:19,180 --> 01:31:25,860 I guess for me, you mentioned some of the issues we may have when we designate this site, 1111 01:31:26,000 --> 01:31:32,260 we will be able to enact or other bylaws and remove encampments from any other sites that 1112 01:31:32,260 --> 01:31:34,260 pop up in the community, correct? 1113 01:31:39,920 --> 01:31:45,260 So look to be further, the legal situation just keeps rolling with this. 1114 01:31:45,460 --> 01:31:50,360 Our understanding of it as it stands now is that yes, we could 1115 01:31:51,420 --> 01:32:03,120 So, if an encampment springs up in the Allanger Park, you know, we could direct them to one of these sites if they're deemed appropriate. 1116 01:32:04,780 --> 01:32:08,660 So, it's not to say we won't face challenges, every community is facing legal challenges. 1117 01:32:09,760 --> 01:32:17,900 I will accept that, I guess my hope is that we will enact our bylaws until a court tells us that we can't after we designate the site. 1118 01:32:17,900 --> 01:32:34,940 I think we're at that stage where we have through other boards and whatnot, a group of people, or agencies that are from what I'm told on board to help with whatever site is selected from Council. 1119 01:32:36,780 --> 01:32:41,400 So, it is my hope that all those part of agencies do come to the table and we select one. 1120 01:32:41,400 --> 01:32:50,040 I am not in favor of leaving it where it is currently, but neighborhood has endured that far too long as it is right now. 1121 01:32:51,800 --> 01:32:58,720 And suggesting that we will leave it there and monitor it more judiciously is not going to be any ease of mind, 1122 01:32:58,780 --> 01:33:05,400 because if we could accomplish solving resident concerns by just monitoring it, then we should have been doing that for the last three years. 1123 01:33:07,100 --> 01:33:35,220 I earlier, when these alternative sites proposed came, the Spruce Snowdump was dismissed from that list before it even got out to public circulation because Council wasn't in favor of that list, which to me only leaves one of these three sites as a possible option there has been pushed back on that site obviously previously so I'm not sure it's a great option but to me it's the only option that remains on the table of the three that are listed. 1124 01:33:38,380 --> 01:33:41,060 Thank you. Councillor Cirling. 1125 01:33:42,560 --> 01:33:43,680 Thank you. 1126 01:33:43,760 --> 01:33:47,800 Yeah, there's not much of a, but there is only one choice of what's been listed. 1127 01:33:49,400 --> 01:33:58,170 And from that, I guess it's the cost you talked about some fencing cost possible. 1128 01:33:59,830 --> 01:34:02,790 This is not going to be we provide the land. 1129 01:34:03,570 --> 01:34:05,930 Hopefully the other agencies come on board. 1130 01:34:05,930 --> 01:34:14,310 The dollars needed for operations, you know, you talked about cleanup, would fall back on us, 1131 01:34:14,950 --> 01:34:18,550 but where is the dollars going to come from? 1132 01:34:18,730 --> 01:34:30,120 Is this part of, we'll see, DSAB will be somewhat responsible for dollars being put towards 1133 01:34:30,120 --> 01:34:36,800 this for the homeless, I guess, down in that incantment area, where is the dollars going 1134 01:34:36,800 --> 01:34:42,600 We come from, or do you have an idea because, as I say, the sites that have been chosen, 1135 01:34:43,240 --> 01:34:47,640 I think, and I'll be quite, well, in front of me, it's the Pine Street, I believe, is what 1136 01:34:47,640 --> 01:34:56,040 we're going to, and I should say, we recommend going forward on Pine Street, but there is constant 1137 01:34:56,040 --> 01:34:56,760 about it. 1138 01:34:56,820 --> 01:35:01,000 And I don't see it where it should all fall into the city of Timons, 1139 01:35:03,180 --> 01:35:04,880 to do everything, to put 1140 01:35:04,880 --> 01:35:10,020 out there. We've been putting, putting out the bill for a long time, or putting the bill 1141 01:35:10,020 --> 01:35:17,640 for a long time on what's taken place behind in a round living space. So I think it's time 1142 01:35:17,640 --> 01:35:25,160 that we find an alternate location, whether it's the intern until something's definitely come 1143 01:35:25,160 --> 01:35:32,460 so later on. But something has to be done, that would be the site in the intern. But again, 1144 01:35:32,460 --> 01:35:35,360 going back to dollars and cents. I don't know if there's 1145 01:35:35,360 --> 01:35:38,820 a French dollars through D-sab, there are other agencies. 1146 01:35:41,240 --> 01:35:44,820 It can't keep falling back on us. It's a great bottom line. 1147 01:35:49,900 --> 01:35:54,500 Through your worship, I don't know where the money comes from. No one's helped so far. 1148 01:35:55,040 --> 01:36:01,480 D-sab did have some funding that they had applied for, but we weren't able to 1149 01:36:01,480 --> 01:36:07,480 utilize that. So I can't speak on behalf of the funding that the 1150 01:36:07,480 --> 01:36:10,420 the DSAP has, things have certainly changed a lot since 1151 01:36:10,420 --> 01:36:14,840 when I worked there. I don't, I don't know, I'm just assuming 1152 01:36:15,400 --> 01:36:18,640 this is our cost. Like I said, there hasn't been 1153 01:36:18,640 --> 01:36:23,220 assistance with these costs today. I don't know why they're 1154 01:36:23,220 --> 01:36:26,180 why I don't know it was going to come to the table for us. 1155 01:36:28,680 --> 01:36:32,360 Perhaps to that, I would also just add that for those council members that were sitting 1156 01:36:32,360 --> 01:36:39,320 around the CVSB board table, you'll recall that when we were proving the 2026 homelessness 1157 01:36:39,320 --> 01:36:44,340 prevention plan, the allocations of the fund that we have under the HPP funding, the 1158 01:36:44,340 --> 01:36:50,000 homelessness prevention program that given the fact that there was no new money that we were 1159 01:36:50,000 --> 01:36:54,300 using, we had the same allocation as previous years. We weren't able to entertain, as 1160 01:36:54,300 --> 01:37:03,040 board, any new requests for funding for a portion of that allocation that essentially, you know, 1161 01:37:03,040 --> 01:37:06,660 that the allocations were to maintain current service levels. 1162 01:37:07,900 --> 01:37:14,320 So to that, no, we don't know where any capital funds would come from to build a accomplices 1163 01:37:14,320 --> 01:37:20,740 work, and given that information, we know that for 2026, there doesn't seem to be any operational 1164 01:37:20,740 --> 01:37:24,000 funding at a partners level, either, and I'm just talking about one partner. 1165 01:37:24,000 --> 01:37:29,240 So, of course, that's not the full list of partners that could potentially come and assist us with this. 1166 01:37:30,370 --> 01:37:57,570 So, a possibility of new agencies, no other dollars coming in in order for us to move in cabinets or to a site that would be one site versus a number of sites around the city, it fall back on 100% of the taxpayers cost to move them or say this is a site. 1167 01:37:57,570 --> 01:38:03,890 It's not a moving, this is going to be the site that we're bringing forward for them to 1168 01:38:03,890 --> 01:38:11,090 set up and they don't have to worry about what's coming behind later and saying you have 1169 01:38:11,090 --> 01:38:11,990 to move again. 1170 01:38:13,810 --> 01:38:20,370 It's unfortunate if we have to put the whole bill, it's whether or not there's any avenues 1171 01:38:20,370 --> 01:38:29,070 for extra funding, whether we flow it to the province, decide, flows it or under agencies 1172 01:38:29,650 --> 01:38:37,150 look for funding for this. Not for their own use, but we have to get funding other agencies 1173 01:38:37,150 --> 01:38:42,810 on board in order to make this happen versus the way it's starting to sell. 1174 01:38:43,210 --> 01:38:47,760 Be a taxpayer. Thank you. Councillor Filman. 1175 01:38:47,760 --> 01:39:00,620 Thank you, Worship. Through you to the CAO, my question is previously when there was discussions about finding alternative location for the shelter. 1176 01:39:01,680 --> 01:39:07,720 There seem to be a lot of pushback, specifically from Mishegawa tribal council. 1177 01:39:07,720 --> 01:39:16,460 So, I'm curious, has there been any revisiting of that site on the shelter to potentially 1178 01:39:16,460 --> 01:39:25,820 do something for the encampment and living space? Are you able to comment on whether there's 1179 01:39:25,820 --> 01:39:27,700 been an appetite to revisit? 1180 01:39:31,170 --> 01:39:35,630 Unfortunately, I can't speak to any discussion about moving the shelter 1181 01:39:35,630 --> 01:39:40,750 itself. I haven't been involved in those so I'm sorry and just to fall 1182 01:39:40,750 --> 01:39:44,630 thank you for that but getting to the point at hand with the 1183 01:39:44,630 --> 01:39:50,130 encampment. At this time we can't really look at where we're getting the 1184 01:39:50,130 --> 01:39:58,790 funding. This has to be done. It's not desirable to have an open, you know an 1185 01:39:58,790 --> 01:40:02,890 open book or whatever else we want to get funding from somewhere but if not I 1186 01:40:02,890 --> 01:40:09,930 the residents deserve that and we'll just have to find a way to make that happen. I don't 1187 01:40:09,930 --> 01:40:15,730 think we can really waste more time trying to decide where we can get funding because as you 1188 01:40:15,730 --> 01:40:22,730 said it's just it hasn't come and the prospects of it coming are probably slim to none and that 1189 01:40:22,730 --> 01:40:30,890 would be my comment for my colleagues we have to find a way and I'd be in full support. I know 1190 01:40:30,890 --> 01:40:37,610 residents would be in full support of that expenditure if it provide it for a safe and 1191 01:40:39,210 --> 01:40:46,730 desirable location for foreign campments and to move them away from residential neighborhoods. 1192 01:40:51,660 --> 01:40:54,040 Any other questions or comments? So yes, Councillor Gistondidge. 1193 01:40:54,300 --> 01:40:59,670 Yeah, I think I think the CAO and his report hits it pretty pretty good. 1194 01:41:00,460 --> 01:41:04,820 Unless you move the shelter, okay? You need to move the shelter. 1195 01:41:04,820 --> 01:41:08,880 The public went into the McIntyre arena and said, 1196 01:41:08,880 --> 01:41:11,620 get the shelter out of residential three years ago. 1197 01:41:13,240 --> 01:41:15,180 Now, the went to D-Sab, D-Sab said 1198 01:41:15,180 --> 01:41:17,540 we're going to move the shelters, not as easy as it seems. 1199 01:41:18,260 --> 01:41:21,200 If you don't move the shelter, the report is correct. 1200 01:41:21,280 --> 01:41:22,740 Everybody's going back to the same spot. 1201 01:41:23,720 --> 01:41:26,440 So the best you're going to get away with, okay, 1202 01:41:29,920 --> 01:41:32,460 is advancing that I and Megan discussed 1203 01:41:32,460 --> 01:41:41,840 and said, put a fence along there, okay, and protect those residents so that people can't climb over the fence you go through their yards. 1204 01:41:43,560 --> 01:41:48,220 If we all of a sudden, I don't think we should allow in Catman's period. 1205 01:41:48,960 --> 01:41:53,980 You move the shelter, make it bigger, there is no tents or lots of room in the shelter, but we haven't done that yet. 1206 01:41:54,500 --> 01:41:57,980 The problem is, they're going to go back to the same spot. 1207 01:41:57,980 --> 01:42:07,480 If you put it down pine street and say one site for encampments is something that we've 1208 01:42:07,480 --> 01:42:10,700 voted on, we agreed to, we just can't find that one site. 1209 01:42:11,580 --> 01:42:20,880 So if we put it down pine street, then we basically would be telling which is what the idea 1210 01:42:20,880 --> 01:42:25,280 of one site is, is this is where you're going to go. 1211 01:42:26,220 --> 01:42:32,120 You're not going to put a tent anywhere, you feel like, because right now the way it seems 1212 01:42:32,120 --> 01:42:35,840 in the city of Timons, it's almost like, and we've got to get away from that. 1213 01:42:35,960 --> 01:42:43,180 We've got to start a changing routine of everybody where people think you can just come 1214 01:42:43,180 --> 01:42:49,280 to Timons and do whatever you want, do whatever you want, open drugs, set up a tent here, 1215 01:42:49,440 --> 01:42:52,700 set up a tent there, like there's got to be something. 1216 01:42:52,700 --> 01:42:57,430 You know, I don't know if time streets the answer, we keep struggling with this. 1217 01:43:00,480 --> 01:43:07,580 You know, I think it's at all, and I think we agree, maybe we don't agree. The shelter has to move. 1218 01:43:07,580 --> 01:43:13,100 If the shelter doesn't move, everybody goes back to the same spot. That's the routine. 1219 01:43:15,020 --> 01:43:20,420 You know, and, and, and, and, and I think I think about the funding when when when when 1220 01:43:20,420 --> 01:43:27,000 was on the D-SAB and the HPP funding that's there that you would think that the D-SAB, 1221 01:43:27,020 --> 01:43:35,300 one of that HPP funding, would give us some money for helping to clean up around there. 1222 01:43:35,540 --> 01:43:39,780 But no, that's unfortunate, but that's just the way it is. 1223 01:43:41,020 --> 01:43:44,780 But there is no resolution, okay? 1224 01:43:45,460 --> 01:43:52,540 You know, the bottom line is, is like I said, we can't just let people do whatever they feel like. 1225 01:43:53,040 --> 01:43:56,660 There's people that are struggling out there, we get it. 1226 01:43:56,780 --> 01:44:05,020 But it's also seriously impacting the lives of people that are in that neighborhood and anywhere around there. 1227 01:44:05,160 --> 01:44:10,640 But we haven't landed on anything yet. We haven't landed. So we have to mitigate the best we can. 1228 01:44:10,640 --> 01:44:29,460 So if we require a resolution to put that fence up and pay for it so that these residents don't have to, you know, the tieback that you talked about that you don't have to look across and see what's going on or you fence off that area and don't allow tents there. 1229 01:44:30,460 --> 01:44:34,740 Those are our options, but there is no resolution on the table. 1230 01:44:34,740 --> 01:44:44,260 You know what I mean? We have nothing to vote on. There is a report, okay? I was going to bring a resolution a couple of meetings ago, but I didn't know if there was support. 1231 01:44:45,540 --> 01:44:53,700 So, and engaging the listening to the conversation, I still don't think there's support. 1232 01:44:54,400 --> 01:44:58,160 So, you know, am I going to bring a resolution for fencing? 1233 01:44:58,560 --> 01:44:59,920 No one can't misperry it. 1234 01:45:00,000 --> 01:45:29,980 Bring them out to Pine Street. This is something we got to work out together. Somehow, you know what I mean? Like we can't, we can't just let people that do whatever they feel like at the expense of, you know, and not like I said, understanding that it's not easy living in a tent either. I still don't think people should be living in a tent. I really don't think so. So, anyways, I just, I'm looking to see a resolution, but I think the best we can do for now is that that fencing to help the residents for now. 1235 01:45:31,220 --> 01:45:35,800 Councillor, any other questions or comments, come back to your Councillor Filman? 1236 01:45:37,120 --> 01:45:41,760 Just to conclude, I know we have to move on, but respectfully, I don't really agree with 1237 01:45:41,760 --> 01:45:46,140 my colleague's view that we're not in support, all I've heard is support around the 1238 01:45:46,140 --> 01:45:46,520 table. 1239 01:45:46,860 --> 01:45:52,060 If you want to bring a resolution, I know I would support it, and I haven't seen evidence 1240 01:45:52,060 --> 01:45:59,960 of not wanting to support a one-site for encampments and the shelter to move the shelter 1241 01:46:01,900 --> 01:46:09,620 to take all these steps. I haven't seen any wavering at the table. We just haven't, as you 1242 01:46:09,620 --> 01:46:14,220 said, gotten it done, but bring a resolution, and I know it would get support around the 1243 01:46:14,220 --> 01:46:21,160 table. And as the CAO stated, we can say this is where you put your tents, et cetera, but 1244 01:46:21,160 --> 01:46:26,380 you state it yourself. Councilor goes on, which is that people are just going to go back 1245 01:46:26,380 --> 01:46:33,140 to where they're comfortable, and to manage and monitor that is going to be, you know, 1246 01:46:33,140 --> 01:46:38,780 what challenges has been to this state. So I did want to kind of take exception to saying 1247 01:46:38,780 --> 01:46:44,260 there was not support that, you know, you're not really sure where we stand. I know where 1248 01:46:44,260 --> 01:46:49,080 I stand, and it's to move this, and to get it done. 1249 01:46:49,980 --> 01:46:55,480 Well, just a point of information, if I can just respond, very simple, why do I have to 1250 01:46:55,480 --> 01:46:59,880 the resolution. Okay, I have resolutions on that. I have everything. I don't 1251 01:46:59,880 --> 01:47:03,620 I have to bring it. Well, no, it's the point of information. I'm still 1252 01:47:03,620 --> 01:47:06,900 thinking of you. Just to clarify, you know what I mean? Why do I have to 1253 01:47:06,900 --> 01:47:10,080 break it? Thank you. Yeah, we're a council. Somebody else could. Thank you. 1254 01:47:10,340 --> 01:47:13,980 Council, it gets done. You're welcome. Are there any other comments? 1255 01:47:16,080 --> 01:47:19,920 No. Okay. Well, I, I, yes, 1256 01:47:20,080 --> 01:47:23,700 go ahead, Council. Just for clarification. Are we voting on this tonight? 1257 01:47:25,890 --> 01:47:26,010 For 1258 01:47:26,010 --> 01:47:31,950 There is no resolution that being said there has already been one item added to this agenda this evening 1259 01:47:31,950 --> 01:47:34,190 I don't see why we couldn't have another 1260 01:47:34,950 --> 01:47:40,110 Okay, when would you like us to wait for notice emotions to request the two thirds required to do that? 1261 01:47:40,370 --> 01:47:48,810 No, we could do it following this discussion so if there is a desire to have a resolution added to the agenda that is something that can happen 1262 01:47:48,810 --> 01:47:54,450 So as I was going to stay, I was just going to clarify that around the HPP funding, since I 1263 01:47:54,450 --> 01:47:58,530 am the one that brought it up, and it was stated here around the table that the DSAP has not 1264 01:47:58,530 --> 01:48:03,030 given the City of Timons, any money of that HPP to help with the cleanup, and that is accurate, 1265 01:48:03,550 --> 01:48:08,130 but I do just want to clarify that the distribution of the HPP funding, the allocation 1266 01:48:08,130 --> 01:48:12,610 of HPP funding is done through an RFP process, and the City of Timons did not respond to the 1267 01:48:12,610 --> 01:48:18,010 RFP with a request for any support to help with the cleanup, so I just want to put that clarification 1268 01:48:18,010 --> 01:48:26,450 out there. That being said, Councillor Gistonna, and I do agree on one thing, that there is no ideal 1269 01:48:26,450 --> 01:48:31,990 option presented in this report. And though we might want to continue looking at a potential 1270 01:48:31,990 --> 01:48:38,650 designated location for an encampment site. In the meantime, I would support the installation of 1271 01:48:38,650 --> 01:48:45,810 a fence of fencing. As Councillor Filman mentioned, I believe there was support to the idea of 1272 01:48:45,810 --> 01:48:50,030 worrying that, I myself had asked if we could get costing, 1273 01:48:50,230 --> 01:48:52,250 if we had already asked for costing, or if we could get costing, 1274 01:48:52,410 --> 01:48:53,710 or I'm fancy, now that I see that here, 1275 01:48:53,710 --> 01:48:57,910 I see that this is definitely a low-cost mitigation measure 1276 01:48:57,910 --> 01:49:00,130 that we could put in place to just provide some 1277 01:49:00,130 --> 01:49:02,170 reprieve to the neighbors that are in that area, 1278 01:49:02,270 --> 01:49:04,470 because as we've all acknowledged, whether or not 1279 01:49:04,470 --> 01:49:08,150 we designated in the cabinet site, there will still be a certain 1280 01:49:08,150 --> 01:49:10,830 level of activity happening in that lane way. 1281 01:49:11,550 --> 01:49:15,210 People pedestrian traffic going back and forth to the emergency 1282 01:49:15,210 --> 01:49:18,450 the shelter there. And so I would be in support of installing the 1283 01:49:18,450 --> 01:49:23,650 fencing behind the residences that are on that block on spruce. I'd 1284 01:49:23,650 --> 01:49:25,970 be in support of either one of the options that were presented here. They're 1285 01:49:25,970 --> 01:49:29,790 just the straight fencing with a walking path or the gates for each individual 1286 01:49:29,790 --> 01:49:34,370 property. And so that I think I would defer to what the residents prefer. And that 1287 01:49:34,370 --> 01:49:38,370 area, knowing that again, if we have it as an insight, there will still be activity 1288 01:49:38,370 --> 01:49:43,190 back there. If we decide to move forward with one of the sites presented here tonight, 1289 01:49:43,190 --> 01:49:47,030 and I should just mention that there is no resolution here because every time we've brought a 1290 01:49:47,030 --> 01:49:50,330 resolution it hasn't gone any further and so rather than putting all the eggs on one 1291 01:49:50,330 --> 01:49:54,650 basket we wanted to talk. Have the discussion around council based on the information provided 1292 01:49:54,650 --> 01:50:02,250 in this report where we would like to take this item. So with that said, should we want to continue 1293 01:50:02,250 --> 01:50:06,630 to move forward with the designated site at one of the locations presented? I do believe that 1294 01:50:06,630 --> 01:50:11,530 if we're going to do that we should still consider installing the fencing behind those residences 1295 01:50:11,530 --> 01:50:12,570 on on stress. 1296 01:50:14,590 --> 01:50:19,110 With that being said, I've presented a few new ideas here, and so I can to open the floor 1297 01:50:19,110 --> 01:50:21,010 for further questions or comments. 1298 01:50:21,230 --> 01:50:21,870 Do you want to read the comments? 1299 01:50:21,910 --> 01:50:22,390 Do you want to read the comments? 1300 01:50:23,110 --> 01:50:23,750 Go ahead. 1301 01:50:24,830 --> 01:50:24,990 Go ahead. 1302 01:50:24,990 --> 01:50:28,830 If you're interested, but I would just like to move that we designate the fine sheet location 1303 01:50:28,830 --> 01:50:37,890 as the albeit temporary one site in campus site for the spring summer of 2026, so that we 1304 01:50:37,890 --> 01:50:41,150 can enact and follow our bylaws as required 1305 01:50:42,270 --> 01:50:45,310 and that we proceed with the fence as mentioned. 1306 01:50:49,080 --> 01:50:50,360 I see with the fences as well. 1307 01:50:50,360 --> 01:50:51,800 I'm sure they're building up. 1308 01:50:57,990 --> 01:50:58,050 Yes. 1309 01:50:58,050 --> 01:50:59,410 Why should you self-location? 1310 01:51:04,370 --> 01:51:06,430 I'm not real self-located with the installation of fence. 1311 01:51:11,390 --> 01:51:14,770 Knowing that we might have some minor editing to do 1312 01:51:14,770 --> 01:51:16,970 to the wording here of the resolution. 1313 01:51:17,190 --> 01:51:18,790 I'll ask if there is a seconder. 1314 01:51:19,710 --> 01:51:21,150 Seconded, Guy Councilor Curley. 1315 01:51:22,590 --> 01:51:31,290 And this is to add this resolution to tonight's agenda, of course, so if the resolution could be read, as you noted it, and then of course, we could refine it if necessary. 1316 01:51:33,170 --> 01:51:33,670 Thank you, Worship. 1317 01:51:34,590 --> 01:51:42,370 A resolution needs to be resolved that council designate the fine street self location as the temporary encampment site and that fencing be installed behind living space in the lean way. 1318 01:51:43,810 --> 01:51:49,490 So the resolution for our consideration is actually a motion to add that resolution to tonight's agenda. 1319 01:51:49,990 --> 01:51:53,630 That was moved by Councillor Black and secreted by Councillor Curley. 1320 01:51:54,810 --> 01:51:58,430 And so all in favor of adding the resolution to tonight's agenda. 1321 01:51:59,570 --> 01:52:02,690 Okay, that's carried unanimously, so we will add that as item. 1322 01:52:10,880 --> 01:52:13,560 Okay, let's go ahead and just consider the resolution. 1323 01:52:13,740 --> 01:52:16,440 Now that we're already added here, we're the item. 1324 01:52:17,480 --> 01:52:19,160 Thank you for that suggestion, Mr. Palmer, 1325 01:52:21,550 --> 01:52:23,970 so we've heard the resolution. 1326 01:52:24,370 --> 01:52:27,590 We will now require a mover and a seconder for that resolution, now that it's been 1327 01:52:27,590 --> 01:52:29,970 and that's moved by Councillor Black and Secretary of State by Councillor... 1328 01:52:30,000 --> 01:52:32,400 I guess on a pitch. Is there any discussion on the resolution? 1329 01:52:34,340 --> 01:52:40,740 Councillor Lee Sam? Thank you. We're just a few questions, though. If we do go with Pine Street, is there a cost to 1330 01:52:40,740 --> 01:52:45,660 moving people back and forth? Is there a security issues? Are we responsible for anything that 1331 01:52:45,660 --> 01:52:51,820 happens on that site? Because Council has decided that this is a campsite. Are we putting ourselves 1332 01:52:51,820 --> 01:52:58,700 in jeopardy by not having any control? Any way of transportation or any responsibility of what we've 1333 01:52:58,700 --> 01:53:00,860 decided to put these people in this location. 1334 01:53:01,500 --> 01:53:03,680 So that's just a question before we make this vote. 1335 01:53:04,280 --> 01:53:06,820 I'm not in favor without any of those costings 1336 01:53:06,820 --> 01:53:08,280 or those responsibilities. 1337 01:53:09,000 --> 01:53:10,740 So I think it would be those questions 1338 01:53:10,740 --> 01:53:12,780 that we should be answering before we decide 1339 01:53:12,780 --> 01:53:15,000 this is where the encampment is going 1340 01:53:15,000 --> 01:53:17,260 without having any of the responsibilities 1341 01:53:17,260 --> 01:53:20,440 that we've made to decide on this location. 1342 01:53:24,040 --> 01:53:25,500 Thank you, Councillor Riseum. 1343 01:53:25,920 --> 01:53:26,860 And I'm going to go to Councillor Murray. 1344 01:53:28,900 --> 01:53:29,460 Thank you. 1345 01:53:31,520 --> 01:53:37,420 Yeah, I just, I really think that residents deserve predictability, rules, accountability, 1346 01:53:38,940 --> 01:53:42,660 designated site, does allow for enforcement, monitoring, and clear expectations. 1347 01:53:43,640 --> 01:53:46,500 Some things that don't exist in unmanaged contaminants. 1348 01:53:46,620 --> 01:53:48,020 So I think that's sort of where my thoughts are. 1349 01:53:48,180 --> 01:53:50,960 But certainly appreciate what Councillor Wasell shared as well. 1350 01:53:50,960 --> 01:53:52,400 I think that adds to the conversation. 1351 01:53:53,400 --> 01:53:56,620 So I think, curious to hear what other people are going to say as well. 1352 01:53:56,700 --> 01:54:00,580 But I think residents, certainly in the area right now, 1353 01:54:00,580 --> 01:54:07,280 where we do see a lot of tents, have endured quite a lot. 1354 01:54:08,200 --> 01:54:11,080 And thinking about other areas of our city 1355 01:54:11,080 --> 01:54:14,400 and what the impact could be to other parts of the city 1356 01:54:14,400 --> 01:54:16,720 if we decide to just move it from one place to next. 1357 01:54:17,360 --> 01:54:18,940 So I'm a little bit reluctant to do that, 1358 01:54:19,580 --> 01:54:22,500 but curious to hear what other people have to share as well. 1359 01:54:25,170 --> 01:54:25,730 Councillor Convint. 1360 01:54:25,990 --> 01:54:28,670 Thank you, Your Worship and Councillor Rosal is correct, 1361 01:54:28,850 --> 01:54:32,450 which is why I think even if we do pass the resolution, 1362 01:54:32,450 --> 01:54:36,990 Okay, it's going to be that, you know, we're going to put the fence up. 1363 01:54:37,090 --> 01:54:42,090 We know people are going to still have tents up in behind a living space. 1364 01:54:42,550 --> 01:54:49,390 But in the meantime, we're going to transition into the pine street location because we're 1365 01:54:49,390 --> 01:54:53,250 making a decision to say if you're going to have tents, this is where it's going to be. 1366 01:54:53,710 --> 01:54:56,090 And we're not going to come down with an iron fist right away. 1367 01:54:56,410 --> 01:55:01,130 We're going to take time to find out, you know what you're talking about, but we're going 1368 01:55:01,130 --> 01:55:10,050 transition into a one site. So that's what I'm looking at in terms of, because like I said, 1369 01:55:10,150 --> 01:55:13,930 we are going to put defense there. We know there's going to be people. This isn't going 1370 01:55:13,930 --> 01:55:21,390 to happen April 1st or May 1st. It's going to take a while, I think, before we can transition 1371 01:55:22,230 --> 01:55:27,810 people into that kind of setting. So I have no problem beginning the process. I don't know 1372 01:55:27,810 --> 01:55:29,350 if we have to amend the resolution. 1373 01:55:30,330 --> 01:55:33,150 But I think it's finally a step in the right direction, finally. 1374 01:55:33,690 --> 01:55:36,330 But just some kind of things to work out, like he said. 1375 01:55:37,410 --> 01:55:42,330 We're not, I don't know if Councillor Black wants to amend the resolution, but this 1376 01:55:42,330 --> 01:55:43,530 is not an overnight thing. 1377 01:55:43,570 --> 01:55:50,070 This is a transition working with the agencies, knowing that this is going to happen, 1378 01:55:50,350 --> 01:55:51,310 get ready for it. 1379 01:55:51,370 --> 01:55:52,630 We have now made a decision. 1380 01:55:53,210 --> 01:55:57,570 So if you want to put a timeline on it, an amendment, then if that's going to satisfy 1381 01:55:57,570 --> 01:56:05,050 people, whether it's 90 days or 120 days. And if we don't accomplish those goals within 120 1382 01:56:05,050 --> 01:56:10,530 days or 90 days, then it comes back to this table for further consideration. That's, I think 1383 01:56:10,530 --> 01:56:15,090 that would appease this council. What's else, maybe? A little bit? That we're not doing this like 1384 01:56:15,090 --> 01:56:19,270 just, right away. I wouldn't, I wouldn't vote in support of that. So what's important is that the 1385 01:56:19,270 --> 01:56:23,410 resolution, as it reads, says that we are designating that site. And so we might want to consider 1386 01:56:23,410 --> 01:56:31,310 the wording around this in this resolution, if we want to clarify around, you know, dates, 1387 01:56:32,270 --> 01:56:37,230 but it will take effect, or if we want to clarify that we're identifying the site for a designated 1388 01:56:37,230 --> 01:56:41,550 site, rather than designating the site, those are all things to consider. I'll come back to 1389 01:56:41,550 --> 01:56:48,110 Councillor Black Go ahead. Thank you, Your Worship. We've been at this for three years through 1390 01:56:48,110 --> 01:56:55,230 multiple iterations. Last December meeting, we were told there's, I don't know what the number was, 1391 01:56:55,350 --> 01:57:03,050 but I think it was over 30 partner agencies at the table, over 60, maybe. However many there are 1392 01:57:03,050 --> 01:57:10,830 many partner agencies that are committed to making a one-site solution working many agencies that 1393 01:57:10,830 --> 01:57:14,930 recognize that they don't want encampments popping up 1394 01:57:14,930 --> 01:57:22,070 in parks and streets and laneways and for multiple safety. 1395 01:57:22,270 --> 01:57:23,250 There are going to be cost involved. 1396 01:57:23,350 --> 01:57:25,430 There are costs involved with this issue now. 1397 01:57:25,590 --> 01:57:29,730 We have endured costs cleaning up taking care of facilities, 1398 01:57:29,910 --> 01:57:32,430 sending by-laws, sending police, sending fire, 1399 01:57:33,090 --> 01:57:35,390 to all these sites for three years. 1400 01:57:35,390 --> 01:57:50,350 And in addition to that, we have had residents share numerous stories with the burdens that they have faced, whether it be, you know, people in their yards, people doing things in the yards, people defecating in their yards. 1401 01:57:51,590 --> 01:58:01,570 So I am prepared to move on this. I understand that there are going to be fall-up reports that are going to say, hey, if you want to consider a transportation service, here's the cost of a transportation service. 1402 01:58:01,570 --> 01:58:11,330 Hey, if you want to consider the security or anything else there, there are going to be additional costs and additional reports that council is going to have to vote on whether they do it or not. 1403 01:58:11,670 --> 01:58:19,710 However, what this accomplishes tonight is a dedicated site that will stop the random popping up in any laneway and anyone's yard. 1404 01:58:20,090 --> 01:58:28,090 I don't know how many businesses have called me in the last two years and they've had fires up against the structures because people have had tents up against the structures and started fires to stay warm. 1405 01:58:28,670 --> 01:58:36,470 So, I would like to move on this, and I would request a recorded vote, to me, it's time 1406 01:58:36,470 --> 01:58:38,090 to take our residents in some way that long enough. 1407 01:58:38,250 --> 01:58:40,650 I understand there's going to be cost, and that's going to come out of cost of residents 1408 01:58:40,650 --> 01:58:41,450 as well. 1409 01:58:43,590 --> 01:58:49,930 They cost of a loss of life of having a fire started beside some person's residents or 1410 01:58:49,930 --> 01:58:56,550 business, where they sleep as well, through no fault of their own, the only fault being 1411 01:58:56,550 --> 01:58:59,970 we couldn't take action over the course of three years. I'm not well in the live with that anymore. 1412 01:59:00,570 --> 01:59:05,070 It's time for us to move on with this and I agree with fellow council members that 1413 01:59:05,070 --> 01:59:09,990 shelter relocation has to remain on the table. This is not that issue tonight. This is taking 1414 01:59:09,990 --> 01:59:15,850 a step in the right direction to solve the free roaming encampments set up anywhere in our city that 1415 01:59:15,850 --> 01:59:21,750 has existed for many years and needs to come to an end with a dedicated site. So I would request 1416 01:59:21,750 --> 01:59:22,970 to record it, but tonight. 1417 01:59:24,430 --> 01:59:27,390 Well, are there any other questions or comments around? 1418 01:59:27,870 --> 01:59:28,750 Well, I don't. 1419 01:59:28,830 --> 01:59:29,510 Just a question. 1420 01:59:29,510 --> 01:59:32,450 I'm looking around the room to see if anyone is raising their hand 1421 01:59:32,450 --> 01:59:33,990 to be able to speak at this moment. 1422 01:59:38,260 --> 01:59:39,020 Councillor Custone of it. 1423 01:59:39,040 --> 01:59:40,440 You still have a reason to send that. 1424 01:59:40,440 --> 01:59:42,380 OK, yeah, very little or go ahead. 1425 01:59:42,960 --> 01:59:45,640 So what I'm just a question to Councillor Blacks. 1426 01:59:45,900 --> 01:59:50,280 So if we do this now, should we not put, 1427 01:59:50,300 --> 01:59:53,420 are you open to a friendly amendment for like 90 days? 1428 01:59:53,420 --> 01:59:56,880 because I mean, what's that? 1429 02:00:02,680 --> 02:00:27,040 So, thank you. This is the way the discussion is supposed to be taking place where we're finally maybe agreeing on something and you're limiting our ability to like a question through you to the CAO. If we pass this tonight, okay, how long before that site is ready, you got to clear trees correct? 1430 02:00:27,660 --> 02:00:29,160 Is it even our right? 1431 02:00:29,260 --> 02:00:30,040 Is it on a bit? 1432 02:00:30,140 --> 02:00:30,800 Question three. 1433 02:00:30,980 --> 02:00:32,600 Can you please turn your microphone off? 1434 02:00:32,720 --> 02:00:33,780 You no longer have the floor. 1435 02:00:33,920 --> 02:00:34,220 Why? 1436 02:00:34,960 --> 02:00:36,140 It's a question through. 1437 02:00:36,240 --> 02:00:37,020 Thank you. 1438 02:00:37,040 --> 02:00:39,660 And I'm not actually going to give the floor to Mr. 1439 02:00:39,700 --> 02:00:40,740 Lenders at this moment. 1440 02:00:41,120 --> 02:00:44,020 I just want to take control back of this conversation a little bit 1441 02:00:44,020 --> 02:00:46,180 because now discussion is happening with 1442 02:00:46,180 --> 02:00:49,240 people being called on and having the floor appropriately. 1443 02:00:50,020 --> 02:00:52,420 So I would just like us to slow this down a little bit 1444 02:00:52,420 --> 02:00:55,500 so that we know who's turned it actually is to speak. 1445 02:00:55,500 --> 02:00:57,400 because there's a lot of back-and-forth that's happening. 1446 02:00:58,200 --> 02:01:00,060 This is indirected to anyone personally. 1447 02:01:00,680 --> 02:01:02,440 Well, yeah, it is, actually, to be honest. 1448 02:01:02,520 --> 02:01:03,760 I raise my hands, so. 1449 02:01:04,160 --> 02:01:09,380 I think what the concerns are is that without a plan, 1450 02:01:09,540 --> 02:01:11,740 that's been developed for one of these sites. 1451 02:01:12,740 --> 02:01:15,260 The other questions about, are we opening ourselves up 1452 02:01:15,260 --> 02:01:15,840 to liability? 1453 02:01:16,100 --> 02:01:20,000 Who's responsible if an incident occurs on that site? 1454 02:01:20,680 --> 02:01:21,460 Chetara, Chetara. 1455 02:01:22,220 --> 02:01:24,440 The reason there wasn't a resolution on tonight's agenda 1456 02:01:24,440 --> 02:01:30,840 was because staff was looking for direction on which one of these options to continue to advance, 1457 02:01:31,180 --> 02:01:35,760 which one of these options for which option do we develop the operational plan? 1458 02:01:36,120 --> 02:01:40,620 How do we get to a point where we can be telling people that this is a site that they could 1459 02:01:40,620 --> 02:01:45,760 be utilizing for encampments? Because as Councilor Guest Onovitch acknowledged, it's not tomorrow. 1460 02:01:46,080 --> 02:01:51,580 That site is not ready for us to have as the designated encampments site without, in my opinion, 1461 02:01:51,580 --> 02:01:53,060 And this is where I have questions 1462 02:01:53,060 --> 02:01:55,280 without opening ourselves up to liability. 1463 02:01:56,480 --> 02:02:00,040 And so I would tend to agree that perhaps rather than 1464 02:02:00,040 --> 02:02:02,020 designated the site with a resolution tonight 1465 02:02:02,020 --> 02:02:04,320 without putting any kind of parameters, details 1466 02:02:04,320 --> 02:02:09,300 around effective dates around operational plans 1467 02:02:09,740 --> 02:02:12,740 that we might end up encountering some issues. 1468 02:02:12,920 --> 02:02:15,720 And so I do agree that we might want to consider 1469 02:02:15,720 --> 02:02:18,160 amending this resolution if it's not actually meeting 1470 02:02:18,160 --> 02:02:20,360 the purposes or answering all of the questions 1471 02:02:20,360 --> 02:02:48,860 that we have. Not suggesting that we slow this down. I'm recognizing that spring is here. I'm just saying that rather than identifying this, well, I don't know. I don't know if we does it doesn't need this site and tomorrow people are being told that this is the site can utilize for a command if we then open ourselves up to liability or for the risks. So that is a concern of mine with moving forward. I do want to see that site. That fence go up. 1472 02:02:48,860 --> 02:02:53,040 I personally wanted to see a little bit more information about how we can make the Pine Street 1473 02:02:53,040 --> 02:02:59,520 self-location work if that's the preferred location from council. This resolution however isn't 1474 02:02:59,520 --> 02:03:03,780 doing that. And so I just want to share my concerns that have been voiced by some other 1475 02:03:03,780 --> 02:03:08,440 counselors that I don't know if I can support this resolution as it's written. Simply because right now 1476 02:03:08,440 --> 02:03:13,780 as it's written, it states that as soon as this resolution's passed, that is now or designated 1477 02:03:13,780 --> 02:03:18,860 it in camp and say, and I'm not sure what that means for the miscellity at this time. 1478 02:03:19,620 --> 02:03:20,440 Councillor Gistard on it. 1479 02:03:21,600 --> 02:03:25,440 I'm going to tell you what it means as soon as we've hold on it, if there's enough votes, 1480 02:03:25,920 --> 02:03:30,180 administration has identified a site, and we're going to say that's the site. 1481 02:03:30,580 --> 02:03:35,060 Now if administration comes back at the next council meeting and says, oh, that's not 1482 02:03:35,060 --> 02:03:36,780 good anymore, then we'll deal with it. 1483 02:03:36,900 --> 02:03:40,820 But tonight we're, we're, we're designating that as the in-campments site. 1484 02:03:42,360 --> 02:03:48,340 Let's all. It can't go on spruce tree site because there's- 1485 02:03:48,340 --> 02:03:50,180 I'll give the Florida Council, Curly.

A discussion 1540 02:08:32,740 --> 02:08:36,740 around and wasn't quite clear, went to response, 1541 02:08:37,360 --> 02:08:38,700 response to winter events. 1542 02:08:38,880 --> 02:08:41,360 I'll hand this one over to Councillor Custone of it. 1543 02:08:41,500 --> 02:08:43,760 Okay, thank you, your worship, I'll make it very clear. 1544 02:08:45,340 --> 02:08:51,340 So I think for me, you know, we've, we've, we've, we had that storm in December. 1545 02:08:51,900 --> 02:08:53,200 We just had 30 centimeters. 1546 02:08:53,980 --> 02:08:55,880 We had more snow today. 1547 02:08:57,680 --> 02:08:59,580 There's more snow coming tomorrow. 1548 02:08:59,580 --> 02:09:11,480 we've never seen nothing like this, okay? And, you know, the city does a good job of putting 1549 02:09:11,480 --> 02:09:18,240 everything on Facebook, but I think it's time that the public hears from their local elected 1550 02:09:18,240 --> 02:09:28,980 officials if they so choose. When you have that much snow, okay? And we've never seen 1551 02:09:28,980 --> 02:09:34,460 You know what I mean? Like it's like our snow dumps are full. There's nowhere else to put it. People 1552 02:09:35,720 --> 02:09:42,400 In their own yards or whatever, they have nowhere to put it. Okay, this is unprecedented. So 1553 02:09:43,160 --> 02:09:48,920 I think I think what it is is I think we just have to give people a heads up that 1554 02:09:48,920 --> 02:09:51,380 Everybody is frustrated, okay? 1555 02:09:51,800 --> 02:09:55,520 But we have to keep in mind that there are roads to do 1556 02:09:56,540 --> 02:10:02,160 sidewalks to do, hydrants to do, and then you got water breaks on top of that, and then you 1557 02:10:02,160 --> 02:10:10,060 got pod holes on top of that, and you combine that with the fact that we have trouble getting 1558 02:10:10,060 --> 02:10:17,180 workers like everybody else. You look at transit on Facebook, they had to cancel a couple of 1559 02:10:17,180 --> 02:10:23,960 roots, do two shortage of drivers. So that's a challenge that we have to overcome, okay? 1560 02:10:24,620 --> 02:10:27,380 And, you know, we appreciate the work that's being done. 1561 02:10:27,380 --> 02:10:34,440 We appreciate the patience of the residents, and I think the next six weeks, four to six 1562 02:10:34,440 --> 02:10:38,800 weeks where the weather getting milder, it's going to be very tricky for us. 1563 02:10:39,440 --> 02:10:41,020 Because you've got tons of snow. 1564 02:10:41,360 --> 02:10:42,220 Where do you put it? 1565 02:10:42,340 --> 02:10:43,920 You've got pod holes coming. 1566 02:10:44,000 --> 02:10:45,460 You've got water breaks coming. 1567 02:10:45,940 --> 02:10:52,280 As long as the public understands, everybody is doing the best that they can, this is unprecedented. 1568 02:10:52,280 --> 02:11:00,000 But when I brought the report forward that we're going to get in June saying that if this is the norm, 1569 02:11:00,940 --> 02:11:08,020 then we're going to have to come up with a strategy moving forward to deal with this kind of stuff. 1570 02:11:08,360 --> 02:11:09,420 But this is unprecedented. 1571 02:11:09,720 --> 02:11:15,500 And I wanted a chance, you know, like I mean, I've been frustrated. 1572 02:11:16,080 --> 02:11:18,120 I've been driving the administration nuts. 1573 02:11:18,120 --> 02:11:48,100 Okay, I understand it, but now I'm understanding the whole, you know, the whole picture and, you know, I had it on the agenda for last meeting and then I kind of, or maybe it was this meeting, but I pulled it off and I said, no, I think we need to hear from every member of council and the mayor can speak and say this is this one's tricky, this one is that's that's that you look out your window and that's a ton of snow, okay, so that's those are my comments and I welcome in the other comments. 1574 02:11:48,120 --> 02:11:49,080 Thank you, Oursham. 1575 02:11:52,320 --> 02:11:52,880 Thank you. 1576 02:11:53,080 --> 02:11:54,880 Does anyone have any questions for clarification? 1577 02:11:55,260 --> 02:11:55,980 Any comments? 1578 02:11:56,460 --> 02:11:57,040 Councillor Curley. 1579 02:11:59,370 --> 02:11:59,570 Thank you. 1580 02:12:00,590 --> 02:12:02,190 The head has been tough here. 1581 02:12:02,810 --> 02:12:05,330 It just looked like we're getting caught up the street to get wide. 1582 02:12:06,470 --> 02:12:09,430 The crews are out there and hauled out of no idea. 1583 02:12:09,790 --> 02:12:13,150 I think we've lost count on how many loads to the dump. 1584 02:12:13,270 --> 02:12:14,070 I knew it used to be. 1585 02:12:14,190 --> 02:12:15,790 I think a weekly report. 1586 02:12:15,970 --> 02:12:21,350 I think we've given up on how many loads are actually being hauled out here and trying to find 1587 02:12:21,350 --> 02:12:26,630 new sites where to put the snow. So they've done a good job in that regard. Of course, 1588 02:12:26,710 --> 02:12:32,050 the extras snow is given to say shoes and of course we have to be open to catch 1589 02:12:32,050 --> 02:12:37,170 basins and it just keeps on going and of course now on the whole season of definitely 1590 02:12:38,270 --> 02:12:39,110 taking place. 1591 02:12:42,360 --> 02:12:47,160 So I guess going forward, I know there's a little schedule a lot or the unfortunate 1592 02:12:47,160 --> 02:12:50,760 part is to, is the push schedule, let's say what's going to get done and then we get snow. 1593 02:12:50,760 --> 02:12:53,180 And then we, that has to get altered as well. 1594 02:12:53,700 --> 02:13:02,080 So I don't know if there is any crystal ball out there saying we're going to do X-Street on Friday 1595 02:13:02,080 --> 02:13:07,540 because we get a stonestorm and it changes itself around. 1596 02:13:08,000 --> 02:13:11,180 So I don't know if we could put more information. 1597 02:13:12,480 --> 02:13:19,640 I know on our Facebook page that Amanda puts the notices out there that's information given 1598 02:13:19,640 --> 02:13:26,560 to hurt a post on there we have if we can possible put more out there because your 1599 02:13:26,560 --> 02:13:31,460 everybody probably is getting calls while yourself getting calls what's going to happen 1600 02:13:31,460 --> 02:13:36,820 next and where are you going next all sorts of issues about the snow and it is getting 1601 02:13:36,820 --> 02:13:43,500 narrow. Streets that were wide two weeks ago are now down to the one and a half lanes so 1602 02:13:43,500 --> 02:13:49,460 it's where it's going to go next are we going to be using in the next little while I 1603 02:13:49,460 --> 02:13:50,260 So it's going to melt. 1604 02:13:50,460 --> 02:13:52,080 It's supposed to melt this year, 1605 02:13:54,400 --> 02:13:55,120 more contractors. 1606 02:13:55,900 --> 02:13:56,200 We did. 1607 02:13:56,360 --> 02:13:57,340 We were fortunate for a while. 1608 02:13:57,520 --> 02:13:58,820 We put in a number of contractors. 1609 02:13:59,680 --> 02:14:03,140 I believe our budget for snow removal, 1610 02:14:05,480 --> 02:14:09,280 that was eaten up probably by Groundhog Day. 1611 02:14:10,120 --> 02:14:16,280 But what are we going to be doing going forward financially? 1612 02:14:16,300 --> 02:14:17,320 We have to keep going. 1613 02:14:17,320 --> 02:14:20,780 regardless of the cost, but contractors are obviously 1614 02:14:21,400 --> 02:14:25,380 several of our saviors here, and now we're going to continue going 1615 02:14:25,380 --> 02:14:26,600 down that pathway. 1616 02:14:31,020 --> 02:14:35,520 These are a lot of additional questions that are being managed by 1617 02:14:35,520 --> 02:14:39,480 relevant departments. So I'm not sure if there's specific information that we're looking 1618 02:14:39,480 --> 02:14:41,860 for, we can request that in the form of a report. 1619 02:14:43,760 --> 02:14:48,480 I wouldn't want to start high-poiled the sizing around what's going to happen next. 1620 02:14:48,480 --> 02:14:51,480 We would have to request that information from staff so that it could be 1621 02:14:53,620 --> 02:14:57,260 right to provide us with the additional information. 1622 02:15:00,000 --> 02:15:00,180 And 1623 02:15:02,420 --> 02:15:13,940 so, essentially, I'm leaving it to operations and if they tell us that we need more contractors, which I know is a challenge and not, you know, on our end, but on the contractors end, there are availability. 1624 02:15:14,800 --> 02:15:23,360 If there's anything more that's needed, I would assume that staff, I know that staff will come forward with those reports for additional required requests for additional resources. 1625 02:15:23,500 --> 02:15:29,460 But in terms of what do we do going forward after this season, we do have the report already coming at the end of June. 1626 02:15:29,460 --> 02:15:38,190 Councillor Comin.

I don't know why it was, it was amended on the fly at the last meeting, so it was just inadvertently reattired. 1839 02:32:50,240 --> 02:32:57,120 Okay, so we'll withdraw this resolution from the agenda then, and we'll go right on to item 8G please Mr. Palmitir. 1840 02:32:57,120 --> 02:32:57,680 I'm 1841 02:33:17,650 --> 02:33:18,810 sorry, thank you, Worship. 1842 02:33:19,470 --> 02:33:23,070 Moved by Councillor Kuzanov, it's second by Councillor Curley, whereas Councillor the City 1843 02:33:23,070 --> 02:33:26,710 of Timmins has directed that enforcement service department, working a junction with 1844 02:33:26,710 --> 02:33:31,530 public works department and contractors as required to clean up specific areas of town, in 1845 02:33:31,530 --> 02:33:35,670 an effort to beautify the city, and reduce the negative impact that the garbage has on 1846 02:33:35,670 --> 02:33:39,670 the neighborhood and surrounding property owners, and covering the costs of those cleanups. 1847 02:33:40,310 --> 02:33:44,330 And whereas there are other properties throughout Timmins that require clean up through an 1848 02:33:44,330 --> 02:33:49,550 of the property owner due to circumstances outside the property owners control that the garbage 1849 02:33:49,550 --> 02:33:53,150 accumulation is causing a negative impact on the neighborhood and surrounding owners. 1850 02:33:53,790 --> 02:33:58,370 And where does council city timids is committed to providing clean and beautiful neighborhoods 1851 02:33:58,370 --> 02:34:00,130 for our residents to enjoy? 1852 02:34:00,710 --> 02:34:05,390 Now, therefore, we resolve the council here by direct enforcement services department to provide 1853 02:34:05,390 --> 02:34:09,430 notice to property owners that council has directed the immediate cleanup of their property 1854 02:34:09,430 --> 02:34:13,170 with the assistance of the public works department or contractors if necessary 1855 02:34:13,170 --> 02:34:16,350 and that the cost to clean up the property would be covered by the city. 1856 02:34:19,480 --> 02:34:20,140 Councillor Gistandert. 1857 02:34:20,940 --> 02:34:22,500 Here we go, Mr. Clean. 1858 02:34:24,300 --> 02:34:32,140 Anyways, this all stems from, we're always splitting hairs of where we're going in terms 1859 02:34:32,140 --> 02:34:33,020 of cleaning up. 1860 02:34:33,040 --> 02:34:39,420 This goes back to last year, we spent $100,000 cleaning up around the shelter. 1861 02:34:40,240 --> 02:34:45,020 There was one property in particular, which was an empty lot, okay? 1862 02:34:45,020 --> 02:34:51,940 So what had happened is garbage had blown, got onto that empty lot, somebody reported that a lot, okay? 1863 02:34:52,520 --> 02:35:01,300 And it was a private owner, and they got flagged by by law, and they had to go in and clean up, okay? 1864 02:35:01,300 --> 02:35:03,440 And this is happening all around the city. 1865 02:35:03,640 --> 02:35:08,740 I have a situation in Schumacher where I have an apartment building, okay? 1866 02:35:08,740 --> 02:35:14,800 And they have a dumpster in the back that they're supposed to use. 1867 02:35:15,260 --> 02:35:17,400 They keep putting their garbage in the front. 1868 02:35:17,820 --> 02:35:22,440 There's an empty lot in between the two buildings. 1869 02:35:24,560 --> 02:35:28,040 And they're putting all their junk on this empty lot. 1870 02:35:28,140 --> 02:35:30,880 The guy has a beautiful building beside it. 1871 02:35:31,400 --> 02:35:35,200 And what happens is because of the policy, 1872 02:35:35,200 --> 02:35:47,120 Okay? The guy that owns the empty lot is responsible to clean it. We need to stop doing this, okay, to our own private residents. 1873 02:35:48,220 --> 02:36:04,140 Unfortunately, it's not just the shelter where this is taking place. It's taking place in other areas, in timings, and also in Schumacher, where this resolution is going to hopefully, 1874 02:36:04,140 --> 02:36:10,800 And I've discussed this with the community and safety and well-being coordinator to give the authority 1875 02:36:10,800 --> 02:36:14,920 for us to get a contractor in there and 1876 02:36:14,920 --> 02:36:25,600 Just go and clean it up because if somebody gets into the garbage and then we take two or three days to get there the garbage blows all over the place 1877 02:36:25,600 --> 02:36:28,480 That's not what we're looking for, okay? 1878 02:36:29,200 --> 02:36:30,680 We have 1879 02:36:31,600 --> 02:36:41,300 So many residents that take care of their properties and take pride in, you know, how the city looks. 1880 02:36:42,100 --> 02:36:48,160 Unfortunately, we have some residents that don't care. 1881 02:36:49,260 --> 02:36:53,400 And then what happens is this is the trickles down to the neighbors. 1882 02:36:53,400 --> 02:37:03,280 Okay? And so what happens is there is no recourse on on anybody on this. So the 1883 02:37:03,280 --> 02:37:08,940 just of the resolution is the complaint comes in. It's on private property. 1884 02:37:09,080 --> 02:37:13,940 Somebody gets into a dumpster and throws the garbage all over the place. Okay? 1885 02:37:14,340 --> 02:37:18,620 We got to get in there and clean it up. Okay? And we got to do it quick. And we can't 1886 02:37:18,620 --> 02:37:26,080 public works. If it's on private property, they won't go on private property. They'll go on public property. 1887 02:37:26,740 --> 02:37:29,980 We've got to stop splitting hairs. Get in there. Get a car. 1888 02:37:30,000 --> 02:37:39,820 We have to pay for it, unfortunately, but in the end, it doesn't punish private landowners and it keeps our community clean. 1889 02:37:40,340 --> 02:37:43,240 That is the gist of this resolution. Thank you, Your Worship. 1890 02:37:45,450 --> 02:37:47,810 Here we go, and I'll open the floor for discussion. 1891 02:37:49,230 --> 02:37:49,970 Councilor Feldman. 1892 02:37:51,650 --> 02:37:52,490 Thank you, Ourship. 1893 02:37:54,390 --> 02:38:12,390 Directed to Councillor Guzonovich, like in fundamentally, I understand what you're saying that there are perpetrators dumping garbage on innocent, maybe landowners, which, you know, on the surface seems quite unfair, 1894 02:38:12,390 --> 02:38:19,530 but I don't know how we can manage that because we run the risk when we say Council has 1895 02:38:19,530 --> 02:38:24,910 directed the immediate cleanup. It seems like it's contravening like policies or procedures 1896 02:38:24,910 --> 02:38:31,010 we already have in place and it could potentially set up where even that landowner that 1897 02:38:31,830 --> 02:38:38,910 potentially is complaining about others dumping on the site could start knowing that the city will 1898 02:38:38,910 --> 02:38:45,290 go and automatically clean it up, could potentially just dump garbage and not take care of 1899 02:38:45,290 --> 02:38:45,930 his own garbage. 1900 02:38:46,330 --> 02:38:55,550 So I like it and spirit, but I think there's a lot of open-dans that could create a real 1901 02:38:55,550 --> 02:39:03,950 juggernaut for an already restrained by law and public works department. 1902 02:39:03,950 --> 02:39:07,690 So I just would like some more clarification on how 1903 02:39:07,690 --> 02:39:12,970 how this could work without, you know, potentially opening 1904 02:39:12,970 --> 02:39:14,850 up a Pandora's box. 1905 02:39:16,310 --> 02:39:17,150 Well, thank you. 1906 02:39:17,290 --> 02:39:17,910 Your word should be another one. 1907 02:39:17,930 --> 02:39:20,730 Well, I would like to practice by saying that I will give the 1908 02:39:20,730 --> 02:39:23,290 floor to you because the question was directed at you. 1909 02:39:23,710 --> 02:39:26,590 So please, Councillor Custon, if you can share your opinion on how 1910 02:39:26,590 --> 02:39:29,170 you think that this could work, you might want to pose the same 1911 02:39:29,170 --> 02:39:30,770 question to enforcement staff. 1912 02:39:30,770 --> 02:39:41,830 No, no, I think I think personally I've put in 400 service requests 90% of those are for property standards issues. 1913 02:39:42,930 --> 02:39:45,710 So we know who the frequent flyers are. 1914 02:39:46,010 --> 02:39:47,990 We know where the problem spots are. 1915 02:39:48,370 --> 02:39:50,690 Okay, so if we want to split hairs on the bylaw, 1916 02:39:51,310 --> 02:39:59,530 I trust the judgment of the bylaw department as well as the community safety and well-being coordinator. 1917 02:39:59,530 --> 02:40:09,690 Okay, to administrate this and there will be no issues because, like I said, we know who the property owner starts. 1918 02:40:09,790 --> 02:40:12,870 It's always the same people, the same complaints. 1919 02:40:13,330 --> 02:40:19,890 And if somebody is taking advantage, like Councillor Feldman is saying, I'm sure we'll figure it out somehow. 1920 02:40:20,170 --> 02:40:20,630 We'll figure it out. 1921 02:40:20,750 --> 02:40:28,290 But I'm talking about mostly, what we're talking about an area where you go from Schumacher to around the shelter. 1922 02:40:29,110 --> 02:40:37,030 this is, you know, when we do the spring bylaw blitz, okay, which has been a very successful 1923 02:40:37,030 --> 02:40:45,130 blitz, the bylaw knows where they're going. Okay, they know who is, like I call it in 1924 02:40:45,130 --> 02:40:50,650 frequent flyers and not respecting other people's property that live, I'll give you an example, 1925 02:40:51,650 --> 02:40:57,830 is there's one property in Schumacher where they don't even put their garbage out, all winter, 1926 02:40:57,830 --> 02:41:05,190 They just throw it in the back yard until the springtime comes and then a complaint comes in from from me 1927 02:41:05,190 --> 02:41:08,950 The contractor goes in there bylaws ends to clean the garbage up 1928 02:41:09,670 --> 02:41:14,470 But right here. This is this is pretty simple for us to do because we know where we're going. They basically. 1929 02:41:16,950 --> 02:41:17,750 How's it back? 1930 02:41:20,820 --> 02:41:21,340 Thank you worship 1931 02:41:21,340 --> 02:41:30,660 a little confused with the example that was just given because under this we would clean that up 1932 02:41:30,660 --> 02:41:33,440 at our costs, which isn't desirable. 1933 02:41:34,280 --> 02:41:37,660 To me when we had some discussion about this, 1934 02:41:38,620 --> 02:41:43,180 it was to starting to surround some of the problems, 1935 02:41:43,400 --> 02:41:44,980 which I feel for residents, right? 1936 02:41:45,080 --> 02:41:47,820 If you're in a neighborhood that has increased activity 1937 02:41:47,820 --> 02:41:50,400 that no neighborhood wants it, whether it be needles 1938 02:41:50,400 --> 02:41:54,580 or other materials I get wanting to support those residents 1939 02:41:54,580 --> 02:41:59,200 and help them address what is a systemic community issue 1940 02:42:00,760 --> 02:42:06,480 in continually littering their property with potentially hazardous 1941 02:42:06,480 --> 02:42:11,760 whether it be needles or other bio-hazard materials, 1942 02:42:13,820 --> 02:42:14,840 but to have a blanket 1943 02:42:14,840 --> 02:42:22,460 city is going to clean up. Any garbage areas, I don't know how we would ever 1944 02:42:22,460 --> 02:42:28,740 manage that and how you separate the good from the bad, you know, I have 1945 02:42:28,740 --> 02:42:35,180 Some pesky bears, my neighborhood that if I don't put my garbage away in my garage, it ends up all over my 1946 02:42:35,180 --> 02:42:39,080 yard, and it sucks to clean it up, but it's my fault, so I clean it up. 1947 02:42:40,900 --> 02:42:45,120 So I'm potentially in favor, and wasn't in favor of supporting residents in dealing with 1948 02:42:45,120 --> 02:42:50,680 some of our systemic issues in the community, and trying to support our business community 1949 02:42:51,120 --> 02:42:55,960 that may wake up due to some of our other challenges that we're trying to address with, you 1950 02:42:55,960 --> 02:43:04,020 matter that is clearly from people being where they shouldn't be and doing things they shouldn't be doing. 1951 02:43:04,700 --> 02:43:11,600 But I don't know that I could support a blanket. We're going to clean up any garbage that's on private property. 1952 02:43:15,680 --> 02:43:16,480 Council currently? 1953 02:43:18,140 --> 02:43:22,820 Thank you. I do have a little bit issue just the way it was worth it. 1954 02:43:27,290 --> 02:43:32,730 example. If, well, in a residential part, so the tenants living there just throwing it 1955 02:43:32,730 --> 02:43:38,430 in their backyard and we're sending our crews in later to clean it up. 1956 02:43:40,700 --> 02:43:41,180 Okay, find it 1957 02:43:41,180 --> 02:43:46,380 and then you're contract are going into clean up as long as the cost is put on their 1958 02:43:46,380 --> 02:43:52,860 tax bill. So long as long as it's covered, I don't want to see our us pick it up to 1959 02:43:52,860 --> 02:44:00,100 for everything that's going on here. So in some cases it's you need to do that, but another 1960 02:44:00,100 --> 02:44:07,200 one's known, it has to be applied to their taxes. So I guess they'd have to have each 1961 02:44:07,200 --> 02:44:13,380 case a merit for each case and how to apply. And I don't know if there's any words that 1962 02:44:13,380 --> 02:44:22,520 can be put in here, allow and discretion for what areas that we would send our crews in 1963 02:44:22,520 --> 02:44:28,580 clean up or contract it clean up. So I don't know if anybody can think of a words to put in here 1964 02:44:28,580 --> 02:44:36,440 the resolution so it's not wide open to narrow it down. So that's why only concern on this one. 1965 02:44:36,780 --> 02:44:37,440 Thank you. 1966 02:44:38,000 --> 02:44:39,460 Okay, any other discussion? 1967 02:44:42,240 --> 02:44:43,620 Right. See none like T-Country Standard? 1968 02:44:44,080 --> 02:44:44,220 Yeah. 1969 02:44:44,420 --> 02:44:48,040 When you talk about systematic, this is systematic. 1970 02:44:49,100 --> 02:44:57,940 very much so. And the reason I say that is, in Schumacher, for example, we, there's 1971 02:44:57,940 --> 02:44:59,960 organizations that place people in death. 1972 02:45:00,000 --> 02:45:07,220 Housing, sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't work. When it doesn't work, this is what happens. This is systematic. 1973 02:45:08,880 --> 02:45:22,600 Like through you, your worship to the clerk, the clerk can outline how we deal with this one property in Schumacher, where this is systematic and there's nothing we can do. 1974 02:45:22,600 --> 02:45:27,320 Nothing. Can you explain the clerk, please? 1975 02:45:28,460 --> 02:45:30,840 Nothing we can do. 1976 02:45:31,200 --> 02:45:34,900 Mr. Pointeer, can you just an example of that's being brought forward? 1977 02:45:35,100 --> 02:45:36,180 Thank you, Your Worship. 1978 02:45:37,360 --> 02:45:39,400 If I may thank you, Councillor Gibbs-Anavich. 1979 02:45:39,520 --> 02:45:45,340 I believe I'll answer your question and I'll also answer Councillor Kerley at the same time. 1980 02:45:46,260 --> 02:45:51,900 Yes, so the situation is very difficult to deal with in Schumacher 1981 02:45:51,900 --> 02:46:01,640 because the individuals creating the problem have a number of issues and there's a number of 1982 02:46:01,640 --> 02:46:09,400 agencies involved and unfortunately the mess is being left on a neighboring property so we're 1983 02:46:09,400 --> 02:46:15,200 unable to use our current properties or using our current property standards bylaw would penalize 1984 02:46:15,200 --> 02:46:21,100 the neighbor who is not offending the bylaw. So in the prior example or the tenants are throwing 1985 02:46:21,100 --> 02:46:25,320 garbage in the backyard, when we send the crews into clean it up, that's after we provided 1986 02:46:25,320 --> 02:46:30,700 notice, followed the process, and then we charged those costs associated with that cleanup 1987 02:46:30,700 --> 02:46:32,140 back to the property taxpayer. 1988 02:46:33,280 --> 02:46:38,560 In this example here, in this resolution, in Calcirc is on which remember this, I was requesting 1989 02:46:38,560 --> 02:46:44,060 that the addresses be added to this resolution, so it's site specific to an address, and 1990 02:46:44,060 --> 02:46:45,360 we go in and we clean it up. 1991 02:46:45,580 --> 02:46:50,120 And if it becomes a problem later, council would then have to bring another resolution back 1992 02:46:50,120 --> 02:46:55,660 authorizing us because this resolution, as it stands, is contradictory to our current property 1993 02:46:55,660 --> 02:46:56,660 standards process. 1994 02:46:58,640 --> 02:47:04,440 And I had, and yes, so if you want to prove this resolution, it would be profitable if 1995 02:47:04,440 --> 02:47:06,140 the addresses were on it. 1996 02:47:06,420 --> 02:47:10,960 If there are no addresses, I would recommend that we just let the property standards process 1997 02:47:10,960 --> 02:47:20,000 play out and unfortunately there are instances where our property standards would be not 1998 02:47:20,000 --> 02:47:26,060 fair to enforce on a non-defending property owner that's getting the garbage or dealing with the 1999 02:47:26,060 --> 02:47:32,280 brunt of the problem.
