2022-074 Office of the Chief Administrative Officer Public Meeting Report – Communal Services Draft Business Case Study Motion #: 112-22

Moved By: Seconded By:

Councillor Smith Councillor Higgs

Resolved That the Council of the County of Frontenac receive the Office of the Chief Administrative Officer – Public Meeting Report – Communal Services Draft Business Case report for information And Further That the matter be referred to the next County Council meeting to consider any changes necessary to the Business Case Study based upon public input. Carried Warden Doyle called on the County’s Director of Planning and the CAO to explain the purpose of the public meeting. A presentation was provided, a copy of which is attached to the record in the Clerk’s Office. Warden Doyle then invited those who were attending in person to come and speak. Ms. Kathleen Clayton asked if these systems are only being considered for future development or will they also be available for existing developments and systems, to which Mr. Gallivan gave the example of the Marysville Secondary Plan currently being undertaken now on Wolfe Island which contemplates this is where Township Council may consider allowing existing properties in Marysville to hook up to this system. Mr. Gallivan noted that in this case it would be at the owners expense and there is no obligation for existing homes to connect. In terms of follow up, Mr. Gallivan indicated that generally, the communal services study considered new development rather than existing residential areas. Warden Doyle then invited those attending virtually to speak. Ms. Brenda Martin asked, in terms of the Sharbot Lake public school site, how this site will access the lake water given the complex is in the middle of the village, to which Mr. Gallivan noted the intention will be for a pipe that will collect water from the lake and pump it up to the site. This will require environmental approvals from the Ministry of the Environment as well as the Mississippi Conservation Authority. As a follow up, Mr. Gallivan indicated that the pipes would be buried under public roadways and not under private lands. Ms. Cindy Deachman asked, in terms of the Asset Transfer policy, how the share structures will affect the overall project when assets are transferred in, and would shares be issued in lieu of, and will that dilute the share system as she is concerned with what is initially set up will change over time. Mr. Pender noted that when and if assets are transferred in, such as the municipal water system in Sydenham, this would need to be a decision of the Township of South Frontenac Council and the membership will decide how that happens. All participating municipalities will need to vote on the Special Public Meeting of Council Minutes July 13, 2022

PageMeeting 26 of 529 Minutes of Special Public held July 13, 2022

Page 2 of 5

types of shares. Ms. Deachman followed up by asking if, in 10 years a developer asks that an asset be transferred to the Municipal Service Corporation (MSC), how would that work, to which Mr. Pender responded that if an asset is coming from a private developer, it would be a direct purchase and sale or a cash deal as a MSC cannot have private shareholders. The developers would transfer the asset to the Corporation, not the municipality and this would be dealt with through a Plan of Subdivision agreement. Ms. Darlene Plumley asked if this affects a municipalities current Asset Management Plan to which Mr. Pender responded no as a MSC is a separate corporate entity. Ms. Cindy Deachman noted that the February 2021 report speaks about the viability of this system and asked what the scope of the conversation was with developers as smaller rural communities do not have large developments. Mr. Gallivan noted that this question had also come up during public sessions in Marysville and the answer is that the demand for new housing – and mixed housing - is going to be there. In terms of consultations with developers, there was one meeting with five developers as part of the 2019 study and each developer was positive about setting up a utility and indicated that it would make it easier for developers to create business plans and sell this to potential home buyers. Warden Doyle then invited any other persons wishing to make comments on or ask questions about communal services, to speak To questions raised by Councillor Revill regarding liability on the municipality should a catastrophe happen, Mr. Pender noted that the legal opinion from the County’s lawyers indicates there is no liability to municipalities and were a catastrophe to happen, the MSC could borrow. Council Revill noted the reports indicated there is a financial ask from all municipalities to set up the MSC and provide seed funding until the MSC had the ability to set this up, to which Mr. Pender noted that there is no ability for a MSC to ask for additional money from municipalities and the seed money is only to set up the MSC. Councillor Ron Vandewal asked if the municipality has to contribute seed money or just a letter indicating that if something were to happen it could support this, to which Mr. Pender responded that the initial contribution as laid out in report #2. Beyond that, any financial contribution is strictly voluntary. The entire system is set up similar to assuming a municipal road. The business case sets out the financial commitment over 5 years. Councillor Gerry Martin noted that there are two existing systems in North Frontenac and asked if we allow these private systems to become part of the MSC, to which Mr. Gallivan noted that there is the possibility if they asked to become part of this but the utility would need to inspect the existing system and would require the private system be brought up to standards prior to transfer; however this would be the utility and not the municipality taking on the private system. Deputy Warden Higgins asked why an MRA doubles the cost for developers, to which Mr. Gallivan noted the requirement that a municipality enter into an agreement should the developer go bankrupt, which then puts the municipality on the hook to fix it should Special Public Meeting of Council Minutes July 13, 2022

PageMeeting 27 of 529 Minutes of Special Public held July 13, 2022

Page 3 of 5

something go wrong. As such, based on research, no rural municipality will take that risk on without requiring the developer to put up the money and set up a trust fund, which doubles the cost of development. The utility takes this out as there will be no need for a municipal agreement as the structure is owned by the utility. This can be done through Plan of Subdivision agreements. In addition, the utility would not need to take the system over right away as if the system were to fail, it generally happens in the first few years. Deputy Warden Higgins noted the consultant had indicated in the report that communal services cannot be privately owned and this is incorrect and asked that this be reviewed again when discussed at Council. Mr. Pender noted that in Ontario, you cannot privatize municipal water systems. You can however do this with communal systems. If this MSC comes into being, it cannot sell those assets and that is what is referenced in the study. It doesn’t mean you can’t have one. Deputy Warden Higgins asked what would happen if we go with a MSC and a Township decides to opt out. Mr. Pender noted that the key point is that this is your Townships decision, and you can opt out. If you are outside of the MSC, the MSC cannot do work within your municipality in terms of water.

Corporate Services – Restricted acts after Nomination Day – Delegation of Authority to Chief Administrative Officer to authorize unbudgeted expenditures in excess of $50,000 related to the re-development of the County Administration Building and the Paramedic Station at 2069 Battersea Road

Recommendation Be it Resolved That By-law 2016-0006, being by-law to establish a Delegation of Authority Policy and to authorize the delegation of certain powers and duties under the Municipal Act, 2001, the Planning Act and other Acts, be amended to add Schedule C as follows:

  1. That in addition to those delegations of authority listed in Schedule B provided to the Chief Administrative Officer, the Chief Administrative Officer, or their delegate, is delegated the authority to: a. approve any expenditures, enter into any agreements and/or other legal documents, and incur any other liability for unbudgeted emergency expenditures related to the re-development of the County Administration Building and the Paramedic Station at 2069 Battersea Road;
  2. That upon the termination of this delegation of authority, the Chief Administrative Officer shall report to Council of any exercise of a power or duty delegated under this By-Law;
  3. That the delegation of powers and authority under this By-Law will only take effect and be limited to the time that County Council is subject to the restricted acts under Section 275 of the Municipal Act.

49Restricted of 529 acts after Nomination Day – Deleg… 2022-075 Corporate Page Services

Background Section 275 of the Municipal Act sets out Restricted Acts after Nominations Day for municipal councils. This is typically termed as “Lame Duck”. A Council can become Lame Duck in one or both of two separate time periods:

  1. The period from nomination day to Election Day (2 p.m. August 19 – October 24);
  2. From Election Day to the end of the term of Council (October 24 – November 14). Section 275 (2) of the Municipal Act states: Basis for determination (2) If a determination under subsection (1) is made, (a) after nomination day but before voting day, the determination shall be based on the nominations to the new council that have been certified and any acclamations made to the new council; or (b) after voting day, the determination shall be based on the declaration of the results of the election including declarations of election by acclamation. 2001, c. 25, s. 275 (2). For the Council of the County of Frontenac, these restrictions would apply if it can be determined that the new Council will include less than three-quarters of the members of the outgoing council or if 3 or more current members of Council chose not to run in the case of (a) or 3 or more current members of Council are not re-elected in the case of (b). The following restrictions are set out under Section 275 (3) of the Act should Council become “Lame Duck” in either scenario noted above: Restrictions (a) the appointment or removal from office of any officer of the municipality; (b) the hiring or dismissal of any employee of the municipality; (c) the disposition of any real or personal property of the municipality which has a value exceeding $50,000 at the time of disposal; and (d) making any expenditures or incurring any other liability which exceeds $50,000. Exceptions Under Section 275 (4) and (4.1) of the Act, clauses (3) (c) and (d) do not apply if the disposition or liability was included in the most recent budget adopted by Council if the budget was passed prior to nominations day and, nothing in this section prevents a municipality taking any action in the event of an emergency. Although “emergency” is not defined in this section of the Act, should Council wish to exercise its authority under this section, it should be prepared to defend its action in the event that a court challenge arises. Section 275 (6) of the Act states that nothing in section 275 of the Act prevents any person or body from exercising any authority that is delegated to them prior to

50Restricted of 529 acts after Nomination Day – Deleg… 2022-075 Corporate Page Services

nominations day. The hiring or dismissal of employees of the County of Frontenac is delegated to staff under the County’s Recruitment Policy HR-02-11 except those statutory positions which are appointed by by-law and as such, subsection (3) (b) above would also be exempt. Comment At its June 15, 2022 meeting, Council authorized the Warden and Clerk to enter into an agreement with Emmons & Mitchell Construction (2000) Ltd for the renovations and additions for a joint administration facility for the County of Frontenac and Cataraqui Regional Conservation Authority in the amount of four million, four hundred and ninety thousand ($4,490,000.00). On July 15th, all staff will have vacated the building and on July 18th, Emmons & Mitchell will have taken over the building. Although all the Contractors who submitted bids were eligible as determined by their attendance at the Pre-Bid Mandatory Site Meeting, a $50,000 unbudgeted expenditure or liability for a project of this scale may occur. At its May 18th meeting, Council authorized staff to proceed with a Request for Proposals (RFP) for the construction of a new two bay paramedic station located at 2069 Battersea Road, with final approval of the award of the project to be confirmed by Council. It was indicated to Council at that time, that the cost of construction and supply chain disruptions made establishing an accurate estimate extremely difficult and recognizing this uncertainty, preliminary budget estimates, including studies were in the $2 to $3M range.

Comment On July 5, 2022, Warden Denis Doyle declared the Emergency due to COVID-19 terminated in accordance with the Emergency Management Act 1990. Prior to Warden Doyle terminating the declared emergency, staff were consulted regarding any potential issues that may arise with this termination. In addition, this delegated authority was authorized in the event that Council would be unable to meet due to COVID-19 lockdown; however the County now has the ability to meet electronically should in person meetings not be an option. As such, this delegation of authority is no longer required. The use by the Chief Administrative Officer of this delegated authority was reported to Council as part of the Corporate Services – Annual Report on Delegation of Authority to Council on at its January meeting in both 2021 and 2022. For Council’s reference, those reports were Report 2021-003 and Report 2022-004. Strategic Priority Implications Priority 3

Re:

Corporate Services – New Loan Application to Ontario Infrastructure and Lands Corporation

Recommendation Be It Resolved That the Corporate Services – New Loan Application to Ontario Infrastructure and Lands Corporation report be received; And Further That Council of the County of Frontenac pass a by-law later in the meeting authorizing the submission of an application to Ontario Infrastructure and Lands Corporation (“OILC”) for the long-term financing of certain capital work(s) of the Corporation of the County of Frontenac (the “municipality”); and to authorize the entering into of a Rate Offer Letter Agreement pursuant to which the municipality will issue debentures to OILC. Background On June 8, 2022, Council authorized the Warden and Clerk to enter into an agreement with Emmons & Mitchell Construction (2000) Ltd for the Renovations & Additions for a Joint Admin Facility for the County of Frontenac and Cataraqui Regional Conservation Authority in the amount of Four Million, Four Hundred and Ninety Thousand ($4,490,000.00), subject to the approval by the Cataraqui Region Conservation Authority (CRCA). On June 15, both the County of Frontenac and Cataraqui Conservation endorsed recommendations to continue its participation in the Joint Administration Facility project.

55New of 529 2022-078 Corporate Page Services Loan Application to Ontario Infrastructu…

Comments The $4,490,000 submitted by Emmons and Mitchell does not include any contingency. Calculations to meet financial sustainability for our capital reserve balances are based off borrowing 50% of funds for building projects, with the remaining 50% coming from reserves. Staff recommend that the application submitted to OILC be for the amount of $2,500,000 to account for any cost overruns. If there are no cost overruns, the County would draw less from its capital reserves than originally anticipated. Staff reached out to TD Bank and OILC for pricing on a fixed rate 20-year debenture to borrow $2,500,000. OILC offered the lowest Interest rate of the two financing institutions. The indicative rate as of June 29, 2022 through Infrastructure Ontario was 4.66% on a fixed 20-year loan, though is subject to change between now and the execution of the rate letter. As part of the application for a loan with OILC, a by-law is required to approve the submission of an application for the long-term financing for the Administrative Building Redesign. The recommendation from staff is to pass the by-law later in the meeting. This by-law does not require the County to enter into a borrowing agreement immediately and would allow the County to borrow funds within the next 12 months. There may be a possibility to extend the timeline with Infrastructure Ontario beyond 12 months on an exception basis if required. Next Steps Should Council wish to borrow funds as soon as possible, the anticipated timeline from when the application is made to approval is 3 to 4 weeks after submission. Once the application is approved, OILC will then provide a rate letter with the final rate for the 20year debenture, which the Warden and the Treasurer will have authority to execute per the proposed by-law being considered at this meeting. The County of Frontenac would then be required to pass a second by-law to authorize the debenture after the rate letter has been received. In consultation with our investment advisors, Johnson, Johnston and Macrae Investment Group, and through the economists they work with at CIBC Wood Gundy, the overnight interest rate was anticipated to increase 75 basis points in July, with a further 75 basis point increase throughout 2022. No increases to the overnight rate are anticipated for 2023. On July 13, 2022, the Bank of Canada announced that the overnight rate would increase by 100 basis points. Despite the projected increases in overnight rates, long-term rates are projected to drop into 2022 through December 2023. Long-term borrowing rates would generally follow long-term interest rate trends. Staff will continue to monitor changes in interest rates.

Source: CIBC Capital Markets, Economics and FICC Strategy Forecast Update, June 28, 2022

The County of Frontenac has the option to borrow at the onset of construction or to borrow at its conclusion. The trade-off the County faces if borrowing at the onset is that interest rate risk would be eliminated by providing certainty with the borrowing rate on debenture payments in exchange for starting interest payments early. To summarize, the three options available: Option 1 – Borrow at project onset •

Interest rate locked in for 20 years

Interest payments start at loan start (2022)

Cash flow for construction provided upfront

Option 2 – Enter into construction loan, finance project at conclusion •

Can borrow partial amounts through construction can be borrowed at a reduced rate through the construction phase (2022-23)

Interest-only payments made on amount of construction loan

Final interest rate uncertain, determined at the project conclusion when 20-year payments would commence

Option 3 – Borrow at project conclusion (or later in the project) •

Final interest rate uncertain

57New of 529 2022-078 Corporate Page Services Loan Application to Ontario Infrastructu…

Page 3 of 5

Can elect to borrow full amount between now and project conclusion

Cash flow to fund project would be received when debenture agreement is entered into

20-year payments would commence effective when the debenture was entered into

Given where long-term interest rate projections are currently for 2022 and 2023, there is little financial incentive to enter into the borrowing agreement at this time and to begin repayments of the loan prior to receiving loan payments. However, should long-term interest rate forecasts change, or should Council be sensitive to the risk of increasing interest rates, Council can direct staff to enter into the loan agreement with OILC prior to completion. Financial Implications There are no immediate financial implications with the submission of the application to provide authorization to enter into a long-term borrowing by-law with OILC. The subsequent financial implications would come later after Council entered into a debenture agreement with OILC. Assuming a rate of 4.66% and a start date in August 2022, if the County of Frontenac were to borrow before completion, they would incur $81,193 in debenture payments for 2022 and $194,864 in 2023 before receiving lease payments from CRCA to partially offset the debenture payments in 2024. CRCA’s portion is assumed to be fully financed, with their lease payment based on 31.8% of the total cost of construction. Annual payments would be $194,864 for the duration of the agreement beyond 2024 which would be offset by lease payments from CRCA of $120,761. No debenture payments were budgeted for 2022 for the Admin Building project. If the County were to borrow ahead of time, the County would have to fund the anticipated debenture payments through a combination of its stabilization reserve or through cost savings on other initiatives. The County has $157,721 budgeted for debenture payments in 2022 to payoff the final year of the debenture for Fairmount Home. That amount could be used to offset the payments in 2023 and would require an additional $37,143 be added to the levy in 2023 to make the debenture payments. Strategic Priorities Implications Priority 2 2.1

Explore new funding sources and invest wisely in critical long-term infrastructure.

To meet the needs of future capital projects, explore new sources of funding support (current and future programs), cost-sharing options and other potential economies.

Fairmount Home – Redevelopment Study

Recommendation Be it Resolved That the Council of the County of Frontenac receive for information the Fairmount Home - Redevelopment Study report prepared by G architects; And Further That the Council of the County of Frontenac direct staff to incorporate recommendations into the Fairmount Home’s Business Plan and Project Proposals for future consideration by Council. Background As directed by County Council’s Strategic Plan, staff were instructed to design a framework, explore options, and initiate plans for the development of a long-term care facility that will meet Fairmount Home’s mandate. In addition, under report 2019-089 at their regular Council meeting on July 17, 2019, Council authorized an allocation of $70,000 from supplemental provincial funding for the home’s study from staff. A Request for Proposal for Fairmount Home’s Redevelopment Study was issued in January 2022 and G architects was awarded the contract. Comment The Fairmount Home Redevelopment Study was completed by G architects in collaboration with WSP Canada Inc. who led the engineering review and Turner & Townsend who led the costing report.

Fairmount Home is an accredited, 128 bed long-term care home that last underwent a physical renewal in 2002-03 that was designed and constructed to meet the standards of care in the early 2000s. In the nearly 20 years, the long-term care sector has dramatically changed to a high acuity facility that deals with end-of-life care that often involves complex treatments for serious, chronic health conditions. The COVID-19 pandemic has further highlighted the need to address issues in the home including the need for isolation units, storage for personal protective equipment, and physical distancing, that cannot be achieved in the home’s small common areas such as dining halls, shared resident rooms, staff rooms, nursing staffs and administrative offices. The scope of the study explores the redevelopment by providing two options: Option 1: Review of the existing facility to determine if the existing facility can be renovated for an addition of newly granted 32 additional beds, forming an overall 160 bed facility. Option 2: Proposing a new built home for a 160 bed facility (including the additional newly granted 32 beds) while identifying potential uses for the existing facility. The Fairmount Home Redevelopment Study Report (Appendix A) provides preliminary spatial configuration for the proposed options based on the current equipment requirements and configurations. The report must be reviewed in conjunction with the Engineering Design Brief prepared by WSP Canada Inc. (Appendix B) and the Cost Report prepared by Turner & Townsend (Appendix C). Strategic Priority Implications Priority 2: Explore new funding and invest in infrastructure 2.2 Design a framework, explore options and initiate plans for development of a longterm care facility that will Fairmount Home’s mandate. Other Important and Continuing County Priorities Implement strategic plans for Fairmount Home Financial Implications There are no financial implications at this point. The County’s Annual Repayment Limit for debt is an estimated $3,963,591 per year. The Annual Repayment Limit is the most the County could pay in interest and debt repayments without obtaining approval from the Ontario Municipal Board. Based on a rate of borrowing of 5% and 20 year repayment period, the County of Frontenac would be permitted to take on a total of $46,857,000 in total debt; this would include any debt taken for Fairmount in addition to any other long-term obligations. As currently structured, the County would not be able to borrow the funds for Option 2 without either Recommend Report to Council Fairmount Home – Redevelopment Study July 20, 2022

WSP June 2022 Page 2

2.2.2.2 CAPACITY FOR EXPANSION Based on WSPs review of the existing drawings, there is no additional capacity planned in the existing fire protection system sizing for the proposed addition. Hydraulic calculations will be carried out to confirm in the design phase.

2.2.2.3 SCOPE OF WORK A new wet pipe sprinkler system will provide full coverage to all areas within the new wing of the facility. Standpipe coverage will be provided by fire hose cabinets located throughout the new wing of the facility in accordance with OBC. New piping will be routed back to the existing main fire protection header. Each new zone will be complete with an alarm flow switch, electronically supervised isolating Xkjj[h\bo lWbl[ WdZ _dif[Yjehwi j[ij connection. Flow of sprinkler water will be detected by the fire alarm system and signaled on the fire alarm panel. The sprinkler occupancy classification is generally light hazard. The kitchen, laundry and other service areas are ordinary hazard (group 1). Analysis of existing fire reservoir ongoing, to determine extent of upgrade requirements.

2.2.3 PLUMBING AND DRAINAGE 2.2.3.1 EXISTING SYSTEMS The main domestic cold-water service is located in the basement mechanical room. Two 25mm water lines provide water from the two drilled wells to the two 50,000 litre DCW reservoirs and the four 50,000 litre fire protection water reservoirs. A three-pump (12.5 l/s @480 kPa maximum) booster pump set boosts the DCW pressure to the building. DCW is distributed to fixtures throughout the building from a 75mm main. Water treatment includes a water softener and chlorine injection system, with backflow preventers in place to protect potable from non-potable water. Domestic hot water for the LTC is generated by four gas-fired fin-tube boilers located in the basement mechanical room. Each boiler has an output capacity of 152 kW, with two boilers serving the high-temperature (60.C) loop dedicated to the kitchen and laundry areas and two providing lower-temperature water (49.C) to the patient care areas. The 60.C and 49.C DHW is distributed via dedicated piping loops, each with a 50mm supply main and 25mm recirc main complete with an inline circulator. Sanitary drainage is collected from fixtures throughout the building and exits through a 150mm drain at the southeast corner of the building. Storm water is collected from fixtures throughout the building and exits through a 300mm storm drain at the south end of the building. The utility natural gas meter is located at the south-east corner of the building. The natural gas assembly is sized for 12,000 @CE =7v T.@. Most of these elements were installed as part of the 2004 renovation project. The 2015 Property Condition Assessment notes that the hot water generating equipment is nearing the end of its expected service life and is recommended to be replaced.

2.2.3.2 CAPACITY FOR EXPANSION Based on WSPs review of the existing drawings, there is no additional capacity planned in the existing plumbing systems sizing for the proposed addition.

2.2.3.3 SCOPE OF WORK FIXTURES

All plumbing fixtures in the new addition area will be as per the IPAC and Health & Safety standards to meet infection control and safety protocols, and low flow type for water conservation. Plumbing fixtures in accessible Wh[Wi m_bb Yecfbo m_j^ XWhh_[h \h[[ ]k_Z[b_d[i. uEWdZi-\h[[v eh [b[Yjhed_YWbbo ef[hWj[Z \WkY[ji m_bb X[ fhelided for hand hygiene sinks (HHS) where required, public washrooms and all other areas within the facility as deemed appropriate. Consideration shall be given to water flow, as well as fixture shape, size and design, with regard to splatter control and prevention of environmental contamination and will be determined in consultation with the user group. Q^[hceijWj_Y c_n_d] lWbl[i m_bb X[ fhel_Z[Z Wj [WY^ d[m fbkcX_d] _njkh[ m_j^ u^WdZi-\h[[v ef[hWj_ed. Emergency shower and eyewash stations will be provided in locations requested by the owner and where required for safety. All new exposed supplies to fixtures will be rigid chrome plated copper or stainless steel. All new plumbing fixtures will be in conformance with CSA Z317.1 and CSA Z8000. DOMESTIC COLD WATER

A new domestic cold-water branch will be run from the existing facility main to the new addition area. Refer to site development portion of report for analysis of existing well and reservoir capacity. The new domestic cold-water line will then distribute in the ceiling space to all new fixtures and equipment requiring cold water. The new domestic cold-water lines will be thermally insulated type L copper. All new equipment fixtures and branches will be isolated with ball valves. DOMESTIC HOT WATER

The existing domestic hot water generating equipment will be replaced by removed. New natural gas fired condensing domestic water heaters will be installed. The quantity and capacity of heaters will be determined during design development. The new plant will have the capacity to meet the all existing and new addition domestic hot water needs of the facility with any one tank out of service (N+1 redundancy) Two (2) new, duplex domestic hot water recirculation pumping systems will be provided. The water will be stored at 71°C (160°F). A line carrying 71°C (160°F) hot water will extend from the domestic hot water heaters. Fixtures on the existing higher-temperature loop in the kitchen and laundry areas will receive 71°C (160°F) hot water. Pressure compensated thermostatically controlled mixing valves will temper the water to provide 43°C (110°F) hot water to the piping serving the remaining fixtures. New supply and recirc piping mains will be extended from the existing headers to the new addition areas. New distribution piping will run to each new fixture requiring DHW. The new laundry room will be served by a new DHW branch connecting back to the existing higher-temperature DHW header. Water temperature in the building distribution piping will be monitored at all times. An alarm will annunciate at the building automation system as well as the nursing station serving the area where dangerous water temperatures are detected.

WSP June 2022 Page 4

The domestic hot water lines will be thermally insulated type L copper. All equipment, fixtures and branches will be isolated with ball valves. SANITARY DRAINAGE

Sanitary waste from fixtures in the new addition is proposed to be collected and conveyed through new underground sanitary drain piping and connect to the existing underground sanitary main serving the existing portion of the building. New sanitary piping will be extended from the new main to all new fixtures requiring sanitary drainage. Floor drains will be installed in the new serveries, soiled utility rooms, Janitor rooms, personal care rooms, laundry rooms, mechanical rooms and any other areas requiring sanitary drainage. All floor drains ultimately terminate, draining into the existing onsite sewage system. Based on an addition of 32 Long Term Care beds, an estimated sewage system daily design flow increase of 14,400L/Day is to be expected. Past projects have shown an average cost $20 per treated Litre to $25 per treated Litre of effluent can be used for an equivalent of a Class C cost estimate. (i.e the cost per treated litre can be multiplied by the increase in daily flow for an approximate cost for the increased daily design flow). To support this increased daily flow, an area of approximately 1,800m² should be allocated adjacent to the existing sewage system components as reserved space. Additionally, existing sewage system components may require upgrades or overhauling/refurbishing to be considered to be fit for re-use. Considerations should be given to shallow bedrock being encountered below ground surface when completing the detailed design of the system, along with any possible setback restrictions from existing drilled wells and regulatory limits. Sewage systems with daily design sewage flows greater than 10,000 L/day, an Environmental Compliance Approval (ECA) from the Ministry of the Environment, Conservation and Parks (MECP) is required. Since an existing ECA already exists for this property, it will need to be updated/amended to reflect the increase in flow and additional infrastructure. Timing constraints for MECP review and approval should also be considered as the review and approval process can be expected to take up to 9 to 12 months. STORM DRAINAGE

A new storm line will extend from the new addition area to the existing storm sewer on site. The new line will extend to each of the new roof drains. The drainage piping will consist of multiple rainwater leaders throughout the building to reduce horizontal lengths of piping

2.2.4 HEATING VENTILATION AND AIR CONDITIONING 2.2.4.1 EXISTING SYSTEMS Heating water for the building is supplied by three (3) natural gas fired fin-tube boilers, manufactured in 2003. Each boiler has an output capacity of 425kW with a peak efficiency of 81%. Hot water is delivered by circulating pumps to wall-fin, unit heaters, force flow heaters and reheat coils throughout the building. The 2015 Property Condition Assessment notes that the boilers are nearing the end of their expected service life and are recommended to be replaced. Patient rooms and common areas are served by rooftop air handling units RTU-1 to RTU-4, each with glycol heating coils, DX cooling, heat recovery, supply, return and exhaust fans. These units were installed as part of the 2004 renovation project and range in capacity from 2,930 to 4,395 l/s with 70kW of cooling. The facility is in the process of starting an HVAC upgrade Fairmount Home Redevelopment g Design Brief - DRAFT Project No. 221-04183-00 G Architects

of 529 Study 2022-077 FairmountPage Home 160 Redevelopment

WSP June 2022 Page 5

Kitchen and laundry areas are served by a 2,360 l/s natural gas-fired make-up air unit with DX cooling. Humidification is provided by two gas-fired steam boilers located in the basement mechanical room. The steam system includes a condensate receiver/feedwater tank, water treatment system, steam traps and piping up to the rooftop units. It is noted that the boilers are not operational at this time.

2.2.4.2 CAPACITY FOR EXPANSION Based on WSPs review of the existing drawings, the HVAC systems are not designed with capacity for the proposed addition.

2.2.4.3 SCOPE OF WORK The HVAC systems serving the new building addition will be designed in accordance with the Long-Term Care Home Design Manual and CSA Z317.2 Special requirements for heating ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) in health care facilities. All new spaces within the building addition will be fully air conditioned. Airflow within the building addition will be delivered in clean resident and staff areas and exhausted from dirty/soiled rooms to control odors and contaminated air. The building pressurization will follow recommended practices outlined in the LongTerm Care Home Design Manual and CSA Z317.2. Energy conservation will be achieved by recovering usable energy from building exhaust to pre-condition incoming fresh air. It is proposed to serve the building addition with several air handling systems to allow for scheduling where areas are not occupied all the time as well as to provide some redundancy in the event of equipment failure. The heating system for the building will also be designed with redundancy so that the building can remain occupied in the event of an equipment failure. RESIDENT BEDROOM AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM (RTU-1)

The resident bedrooms will be served by a new 6,000 l/s main air handling unit (RTU-1) and a 3,500 l/s dedicated outside air supply unit (DOAS-1). DOAS-1 will exhaust all resident washrooms and soiled areas within the new addition. DOAS-1 will have a dual-core type, 90% effective energy recovery module to pre-condition the outside air. In addition to heat recovery, the dedicated outside air supply unit will have a heating and cooling coil to condition the incoming fresh air to be delivered to the air handling unit serving the resident rooms. DOAS-1 will consist of: inlet/exhaust dampers, supply and exhaust fans, 25mm panel filters providing 30% filtration upstream of the supply and exhaust fans, heat recovery cores, DX cooling, glycol heating coil and an airflow station. RTU-1 will consist of:

Mixing section

Return fan

three (3) stage filtration system providing 90% filtration. The first stage consists of a 50mm three-stage panel filter that collects particulate and removes odors. The outer layer of media is made of polyester fibers for effective particulate collection. Removal of particulate extends the odor absorbing life of the carbon granules by preventing the millions of tiny pores from becoming clogged with dirt. The second stage is a substrate impregnated with a high density of granular, 60% minimum activity-rated carbon. The carbon imbedding process bonds the granules to the fibers preventing carbon settling or spilling. The third stage is made of polyurethane foam that serves as both a final filter for particulate collection and a protective covering for the carbon pad to prevent the granules from being dislodged. A cartridge filter section provides 90% final filtration. The third stage of filtration will be the final section in the supply air stream before the air exits the unit to the space.

DX cooling with multiple circuits for redundancy

Heating coil (glycol)

Supply fan

RTU-1 will recirculate returned air from the resident rooms mixed with fresh air supplied from DOAS-1. Humidity levels above 60% are conducive to mold growth, the mechanical systemws ability to remove moisture from outside air is critical to prevent high indoor humidity conditions, specifically for systems with high outside air flow requirements. Under high outdoor air humidity conditions, the dedicated outside air unit energy recovery module will exchange both latent and sensible energy from the incoming outdoor air to the outgoing exhaust air. After the outside air temperature and humidity is initially reduced by the heat recovery module, the cooling coil will further cool/dehumidify the air before delivering to RTU-1. The dedicated outside air unit cooling coil will be sized to handle all of the latent load associated with the incoming fresh air. The cooling coil within RTU-1 will further cool the air to be delivered to the resident rooms and associated space based on temperature sensors located within each RHA. Final temperature control in each resident room will be accomplished utilizing a terminal re-heat coil dedicated to each room. The building control system will constantly monitor the level of re-heat occurring within the space to determine an appropriate discharge air temperature from the unit. Humidifiers will provide 30% relative humidity to the space within the space during the winter months. A humidification boiler system will be installed to serve the new air handling units. Steam will be dispersed into the air stream through a short absorption distance manifold located in the air handling units. BASEMENT AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM (RTU-2)

A new rooftop unit will provide air conditioning and make-up air to the lower-level storage and laundry areas in the new addition. This packaged unit will consist of:

Inlet air damper and mixing section for economizer operation c/w airflow station for fresh air.

Return fan

Two(2) stage filtration providing 80% filtration c/w airflow station

DX cooling with multiple circuits for redundancy

Heating Coil (glycol)

Supply fan VFD

RTU-2 will be variable volume based on carbon dioxide and requirements for makeup air in the laundry area. HVAC DISTRIBUTION

Ductwork joints will be sealed. Air leakage tests will be carried-out on all ductwork systems to ensure leakage is below the minimum levels allowed by ASHRAE and SMACNA. Thermally insulated galvanized steel ductwork will distribute supply air. Supply air to each space will be through ceiling diffusers. Each bedroom will receive a minimum of four (4) air changes per hour of supply air. This equates to 59Lps (125 cfm) to each private bedroom. Fairmount Home Redevelopment g Design Brief - DRAFT Project No. 221-04183-00 G Architects

of 529 Study 2022-077 FairmountPage Home 162 Redevelopment

WSP June 2022 Page 7

Galvanized steel ductwork will carry the exhaust air from the washrooms, janitor rooms, soiled linen rooms, soiled utility rooms, and personal care centres. Exhaust air change rates will be:

washrooms: 12 air, changes per hour (minimum)

soiled utility: 10 air changes per hour

A ducted return system will be required; ceiling space will not be used as a return plenum. As per OBC 3.1.8.7, which was updated in January 2020, smoke dampers or combination fire and smoke dampers shall be installed in ducts or air transfer openings that penetrate an assembly required to be a fire separation where the fire separation serves a care or care and treatment occupancy. This includes non-rated (0hr) fire separations. Each smoke damper is required to be actuated based on a signal from a smoke detector in the duct. HEATING PLANT

The existing hydronic boiler plant will be replaced with a new plant consisting of three gas-fired boilers. The boilers will be sized such that the building perimeter heat will be fully operational with one boiler offline. The new boiler plant will distribute hot water through the existing piping loops to all existing equipment. New piping will extend from the existing supply and return headers to the new addition. Piping will distribute within the new addition ceiling space to new terminal reheat coils, perimeter heating, unit heaters and glycol heat exchangers serving the air handling units. The two 7.5hp and two 3hp existing heating water pumps are also recommended for replacement. Hydronic radiant ceiling panels will be used for perimeter heating. Each bedroom will be provided with a space thermostat to provide individual room control of both the radiant panel and terminal reheat coil serving each resident room. A heat-exchanger will be provided to serve air handling unit heating coils. On the secondary side of the heat exchanger, two (2) inline circulators (one run/one standby) will circulate hot glycol to feed the air handling unit heating coils. HEATING BOILERS STANDBY PROPANE SYSTEM

CSA Z317.2 requires where the primary heating unit is dependent on a combustible fuel source (whether supplied by a utility or stored on site) a standby fuel supply shall be stored on site. The intent of this Clause is to ensure that failure of the primary fuel supply does not cause a shut-down of the facility. The standby fuel supply on site is to allow for continued operation of the HCF in accordance with the requirements in CSA Z8000 for maintenance of essential services during catastrophic events. It is proposed that the standalone secondary fuel delivery system for the boilers would consist of propane storage tank with sufficient volume for 3 days (72hr) of boiler runtime. The total runtime should be confirmed in further discussion. NATURAL GAS

The existing natural gas service and meter may need to be updated to suit the revised loads for the building. The existing gas meter location is proposed to remain. Piping will extend from the meter to loads in the laundry, existing boiler room and for rooftop units. Natural gas will be distributed through the building at 2psi with pressure reducing valves located at each piece of equipment.

A central digital mixing valve will be provided to reduce the hot water temperature from 70°C to 60°C before it enters the piping distribution. Pressure compensated thermostatically controlled mixing valves will temper the water to provide 43°C (110°F) hot water to newly installed fixtures. A domestic hot water recirculation system will be installed complete with two new domestic hot water recirculating pumps operating in parallel for redundancy. Water temperature in the building distribution piping will always be monitored at locations required by CSA Z317.1. An alarm will annunciate at the building automation system as well as the nursing station serving the area where dangerous water temperatures are detected. Where existing distribution is reused, alarm sensors will be installed as required. Domestic hot water piping will be thermally insulated type L copper.

2.3.3.4 SANITARY DRAINAGE Sanitary waste from fixtures and equipment will be collected and conveyed through new underground sanitary drain piping to a new onsite sewage treatment and dispersal system. Drainage and vent piping will be PVC. Floor drains will be installed in the serveries, soiled utility rooms, Janitor rooms, personal care rooms, laundry rooms, mechanical rooms and any other areas requiring sanitary drainage. The new Long Term Care Home will be comprised of 160 beds, an estimated sewage system daily design flow of 72,000L/Day is to be expected. Past projects have shown an average cost $20 per treated Litre to $250 per treated Litre of effluent can be used to predict sewage system installation costs as per a Class C cost estimate equivalent. Those dollar values can be multiplied by the daily flow for an approximate cost for the new on site sewage system. To support this increased daily flow, an area of approximately 9,000 m² (0.9 hectares) should be allocated for the sewage system components as reserved space. Considerations should be given to shallow bedrock being encountered below ground surface when completing the detailed design of the system, along with any possible setback restrictions from existing drilled wells and regulatory limits. Sewage systems with daily design sewage flows greater than 10,000 L/day, an Environmental Compliance Approval (ECA) from the Ministry of the Environment, Conservation and Parks (MECP) is required. Since an existing ECA already exists for this property, it will need to be updated/amended to reflect the increase in flow and additional infrastructure. Timing constraints for MECP review and approval should also be considered as the review and approval process can be expected to take up to 9 to 12 months.

2.3.3.5 STORM DRAINAGE Storm water from the new building roof drains will be conveyed through new storm drains and connect to the new storm site services.

2.3.3.6 NATURAL GAS A new natural gas meter (by utility) will be provided. Piping will extend from the meter to various loads in the laundry and kitchen and to the new heating plant. Natural gas will be distributed through the building at 2psi with pressure reducing valves located at each piece of equipment.

2.3.4 HEATING VENTILATION AND AIR CONDITIONING The HVAC systems serving the building will be designed in accordance with the Long-Term Care Home Design Manual and CSA Z317.2 Special requirements for heating ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) in health care facilities. All spaces within the building will be fully air conditioned. Airflow within the building will be delivered in clean resident and staff areas and exhausted from dirty/soiled rooms to control odors and contaminated air. The building pressurization will follow recommended practices outlined in the Long-Term Care Home Design Manual and CSA Z317.2. Energy conservation will be achieved by recovering usable energy from building exhaust to precondition incoming fresh air. It is proposed to serve the building with several air handling systems to allow for scheduling where areas are not occupied all the time as well as provide some redundancy in the event of an equipment failure. The chilled water plant and heating system for the building will also be designed with redundancy so that the building can remain occupied in the event of an equipment failure.

2.3.4.1 RESIDENT HOME AREA AIR HANDLING SYSTEMS The resident home areas of the new building will be served by three main air handling systems (RTU-1, RTU-2 and RTU-3) and their associated dedicated outside air supply units (DOAS-1, DOAS-2 and DOAS-3). These systems will be located on the roof of the building. The systems will be interconnected with bypass ductwork which will allow each system to serve all of the resident bedroom areas in the event that one of the systems fails or is shut down for maintenance. Under this mode of operation, the resident bedrooms will receive 50% of the design airflow capacity. Each system includes a dedicated outside air supply (DOAS) module and an air handling unit. The dedicated outside air handling unit will exhaust all resident washrooms and soiled areas within the RE>wi WdZ ej^[h i^Wh[Z ifWY[i within the LTC area of the building. The dedicated outside air unit will have a dual-core type, 90% effective energy recovery module to recover sensible and latent energy from the exhaust air stream to transfer to the incoming outside air. The energy recovery module will reduce the energy required to condition outside air. In addition to heat recovery, the dedicated outside air supply units will have heating and cooling coils to condition the incoming fresh air to be delivered to the air handling units serving the resident rooms. DOAS-1,2 and 3 will consist of: inlet/exhaust dampers, supply and exhaust fans, 25mm panel filters providing 30% filtration upstream of the supply and exhaust fans, heat recovery cores, DX cooling, glycol heating coil and an airflow station. DOAS 1 and 2 will each have a capacity of 5,000 l/s; DOAS 3 will have a capacity of 2500 l/s. The air handling units (RTU-1, 2 and 3) will consist of: '

Three (3) stage filtration system providing 90% filtration. The first stage consists of a 50mm three-stage panel filter that collects particulate and removes odors. A cartridge filter section provides 90% final filtration. The third stage of filtration will be the final section in the supply air stream before the air exits the unit to the space.

'

Chilled water cooling coil

'

Supply fan

The resident air handling units will recirculate returned air from the resident rooms mixed with fresh air supplied from the dedicated outside air units. Variable air volume boxes will be installed for the common areas to allow set-back of airflow when these areas are not in use. The air handling units serving resident spaces will be designed to provide up to100% outdoor air in the event of an internal catastrophic event such as an infectious disease outbreak. They will also have the ability to operate in 100% recirculation mode in the event of an external catastrophic event causing poor air quality. Under these conditions, CSA Z317.2 allows the systems airflows to be reduced to 70% for resident care areas, which will lessen the load that is required for cooling and heating under peak conditions. Humidity levels above 60% are conducive to mold growth, the mechanical systems ability to remove moisture from outside air is critical to prevent high indoor humidity conditions, specifically for systems with high outside air flow requirements. Under high outdoor air humidity conditions, the dedicated outside air unit energy recovery module will exchange both latent and sensible energy from the incoming outdoor air to the outgoing exhaust air. After the outside air temperature and humidity is initially reduced by the heat recovery module, the cooling coil will further cool/dehumidify the air before delivering to the RHA air handling units. The dedicated outside air unit cooling coil will be sized to handle the latent load associated with the incoming fresh air. The cooling coil within the RHA air handling units will further cool the air to be delivered to the resident rooms and associated space based on temperature sensors located within each RHA. Final temperature control in each resident room will be accomplished utilizing a terminal re-heat coil dedicated to each room. The building control system will constantly monitor the level of re-heat occurring within the space to determine an appropriate discharge air temperature from the unit to minimize the use of reheat. Humidifiers will provide 30% relative humidity to the space within the space during the winter months. A humidification boiler system will be installed to serve the new air handling units. Steam will be dispersed into the air stream through a short absorption distance manifold located in the air handling units. As a part of option #2, three (3) resident home area air handling systems are planned as follows: '

RTU-1 serving the RHA areas of Levels 1&2 North (approx. 8,600 l/s)

'

RTU-2 serving the RHA areas of Levels 1&2 South (approx. 8,600 l/s)

'

RTU-3 serving the RHA areas of Level 2 East (approx. 4,500 l/s)

Galvanized steel ductwork will carry the exhaust air from the washrooms, janitor rooms, soiled linen rooms, soiled utility rooms, and personal care centers. For common RHA areas and non-resident care areas, thermally insulated galvanized steel ductwork will distribute supply air to all areas. Supply air to each space will be through ceiling diffusers. Final temperature control will be provided by variable volume airflow control boxes with integral hot water terminal reheat coils operating in conjunction with hot water perimeter radiation. A ducted return system will be utilized. The ceiling space will not be used as a return air plenum. As per OBC 3.1.8.7, which was updated in January 2020, smoke dampers or combination fire and smoke dampers shall be installed in ducts or air transfer openings that penetrate an assembly required to be a fire separation where the fire separation serves a care or care and treatment occupancy. This includes non-rated (0hr) fire separations. Each smoke damper is required to be actuated based on a signal from a smoke detector in the duct. Thermally insulated galvanized steel ductwork will distribute supply air to the food service area. Supply air to each space will be through ceiling diffusers. Exhaust ductwork will extend from the kitchen exhaust canopy to the kitchen exhaust fan on the roof. Dishwasher exhaust ductwork will be factory-built, zero-clearance to combustibles listed grease duct system.

2.3.4.7 HYDRONIC HEATING SYSTEM The heating plant will consist of three (3) dual-fuel (natural gas/propane) boilers located in the mechanical room.

3 ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS 3.1 EFI?ED $,5 ;MF6DH?ED E< ;M?HI?D= 7J?B9?D= 3.1.1 NORMAL POWER SYSTEM 3.1.1.1 DESCRIPTION OF EXISTING NORMAL POWER SYSTEM Electricity is supplied to the building underground via a 1000KVA-27.6KV-347/600V-3PH-4W pad-mounted transformer located exterior to the building on the west side of the site. The main “AAA” switchgear is located in the basement in Electrical Room S-014. The switchgear is rated for 1,200A, 347/600V, three-phase, four-wire. The building has separate Normal and Emergency Power electrical distribution systems (see “Emergency Power” for more). Power is distributed to electrical closets in the corridors before being supplied to the suites (and other loads). There is an electrical closet on every floor and wing. Each closet has a disconnect switch rated at 100A, 347/600V which provides a disconnecting means for 600/120/208V transformers and distribution and power (receptacle)

panelboards. There is an area of the Mechanical Room E-000 where electrical panels and transformers are located. Some panels are located in the Kitchen S-015, as well as in the electrical room of the Auditorium. There are several air-cooled step-down transformers throughout the building. These transformers step a portion of the 600V service down to 120/208V for localized low-voltage distribution. In Electrical Room S-006, there is an older 1968 vintage switchboard (“DP-2P”), which provides 200A, 120/208V, three-phase normal power to the Old House and Paramedics area. There are solar panels located on the rooftop above the south wing. The power generation system includes components on the south wing roof, a main panel mounted on the exterior wall of the stairwell from the south wing rooftop and in the main Electrical Room S-014. It has its own independent utility meter in the main Electrical Room S-014. The system is not tied into the building’s electrical system and provides utility offered rebates on the electricity bills. The system was installed in 2013. The building has undergone several renovations and additions since it was built in 1968. In 2004 there was an extensive renovation that replaced the majority of the electrical infrastructure, feeders and wiring. In 2014 the Auditorium was extended and extensively renovated.

3.1.1.2 EXPANSION SCOPE OF WORK Based on 12 months of peak demand information from the Electrical Utility, the peak demand of the facility is indicated on the September 19 2014 utility bill as 324 kW (342 kVA). An estimated load calculation was completed for the expansion space and the basic load was calculated at 39 kW, Elevator load is estimated at 15kW, mechanical equipment electrical load estimate is 201 kW and an additional 50KW was allowed for the new laundry area. The total estimated additional load being added to the existing distribution system was calculated at 305kW (342 kVA). Adding the existing peak demand load and the calculated load for the expansion produces a total estimate electrical load post construction of 629 kW (699 kVA). Therefore, based on the utility transformer being 1,000kVA there exists adequate spare capacity on the existing electrical service to accommodate the proposed 32 bed expansion. The existing Hydro One utility transformer (1000KVA-27.6KV-347/600V-3PH-4W) will require relocation to suit the proposed expansion due to the existing location conflicting with the proposed expansion layout. Existing high voltage primary conduit and wiring as well as the secondary low voltage conduit and wiring will be required to be replaced to suit the new location. New 347/600V distribution panels and new 120/208V panelboards complete with all associated transformers, conduit and wiring will be installed in the expansion area to serve the 32 new suites, associated mechanical equipment and auxiliary spaces.

3.1.2 EMERGENCY POWER SYSTEM 3.1.2.1 EXISTING EMERGENCY POWER SYSTEM Emergency power is provided by a standby diesel-fired 250kW (313kVA) (+10% tested overload capacity (1 hour duration)) generator. The generator was manufactured by Generac Power System (model SD250). It is located outside to the west of the building, adjacent to the utility-owned pad-mounted transformer and provides power through an automatic transfer switch to the fire pump and associated jockey pump, elevators, heating plant, one washing machine, roughly 50% of the lighting (which provides emergency lighting for the building), exit signs, one receptacle per resident room (intended for resident medical equipment like oxygen pumps), select receptacles in the kitchen and serveries, the nurse call system, the fire alarm system, selected pumps and mechanical equipment. The generator control panel has a dedicated 200A-3P breaker for the fire pump and a 400A-3P breaker for the remainder Fairmount Home Redevelopment g Design Brief - DRAFT Project No. 221-04183-00 G Architects

of 529 Study 2022-077 FairmountPage Home 173 Redevelopment

WSP June 2022 Page 18

of the building’s emergency power load. The only fuel storage tank is a sub-base generator mounted tank. The tank is double-walled, with a storage capacity of 183 gal of diesel. The existing transfer switch “ATS-1” is rated for 600A, 347/600V, and is located in the main Electrical Room S014. The fire pump has a dedicated automatic transfer switch skid mounted on the packaged fire pump assembly in Mechanical Room E-000. Emergency Lighting is provided by standard light fixtures powered from the emergency power system primarily with wall mounted battery packs connected to local and remote emergency light fixtures in electrical rooms. Exit signs are primarily LED signs that read “Exit” in red except in the Auditorium where in the 2014 renovation green pictogram exit signs were installed. The building has separate Normal Power and Emergency Power electrical distribution systems. Emergency power is distributed to electrical closets in the corridors before being supplied to the suites (and other loads). There is an electrical closet on every floor and wing. Each ground floor closet has a disconnect switch rated at 60A, 347/600V which provide a disconnecting means for a 600/120/208V transformer for emergency power (receptacle) panelboards. There is an area of the Mechanical Room E-000 where emergency power electrical panels and transformers are located. Some emergency power panels are also located in the Auditorium. Also, in the basement there is panel LP-E located in Electrical Room S-006. There are several air-cooled step-down transformers throughout the building. These transformers step a portion of the 600V service down to 120/208V for localized lowvoltage distribution. Weekly generator test reports indicate that the peak demand on the generator has been 180A. At this peak demand the generator is roughly between 50% and 75% loaded and the listed standby diesel fuel consumption at 75% loading is 16 gal/hour. Therefore, at the measured peak, there is less than 12 hours of fuel present. It is unlikely that the measured peak demand occurred with the 30hp fire pump running therefore actual hours of fuel usage will be less if a fire occurs during the peak. Per present day Codes (CSA C282-19 Emergency Power for Buildings, and CSA Z32-21 Long Term Care referenced by the latest version of the Ontario Building Code) this building (Long Term Care), a Class B Health Care Facility, requires a minimum of 24 hours of on-site fuel storage for the standby emergency generator at 100% generator nameplate. Therefore, we recommend provision be made for automatic filling of the daytank from additional on-site storage as the existing sub-base tank is not large enough to meet this demand. Per the 2021 Ontario Electrical Safety Code, a fire pump requires a dedicated automatic transfer switch (which it has), life safety loads require a dedicated safety switch (such as the fire alarm panel, nurse call system, heat, fire fighter’s elevator, resident room receptacles used for medical equipment and emergency lighting) and additional conditional loads are required to be on their own transfer switch. This third transfer switch is not present.

3.1.2.2 EXPANSION OF SCOPE OF WORK As indicated above the existing generator does not appear sufficient to serve the building with the proposed 32 bed expansion included. Based on the proposed site plan the generator would also be required to be relocated to suit the building expansion. Therefore, we recommend that the existing generator be replaced with a minimum 400kW (500kVA), 347/600V, three-phase, C282 compliant, TSSA compliant (24 hour runtime fuel capacity) generator c/w outdoor sound attenuated enclosure on a new concrete pad. Existing conduit to be reworked/extended to the new generator location, existing wiring to be removed and replaced with new fire rated feeder cabling to the existing ATS-1 and existing Fire Pump ATS. In order to meet the requirements of CSA Z32 for separate transfer switches for vital, and conditional electrical loads A new 600A-347/600V-3PH Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS) and associated electrical distribution system (Panels, breakers, transformers, etc.) will be required to be installed to accommodate conditional loads. The new unit will be designed to meet the requirements of CAN C282 Emergency Electrical

Power supply for buildings. A generator load bank connection box permanently wired to the generator main circuit breakers connection point will be in the vicinity of the new generator.

3.1.3 LIGHTING SYSTEMS 3.1.3.1 EXISTING LIGHTING AND LIGHT FIXTURES Existing Lighting systems include the following: '

Interior: Wall sconces with compact fluorescent lamps. Ceiling mounted fixtures with primarily T8 fluorescent lamps. Decorative surface mount ceiling fixtures with compact fluorescent lamps. Approximately 50% of the resident rooms had their lighting upgraded to LED. Majority of corridor lighting has also been upgraded to LED.

'

Interior Auditorium: Surface mounted, T-bar recessed and pendant hung LED light fixtures. There is also a track lighting system for performances. Lights are controlled by a variety of toggle switches, dimmer switches and occupancy sensors (Auditorium primarily). In the Auditorium there is a “nLight” Lighting Control System.

'

Exterior: Wall sconces with high pressure sodium lamps and decorative light sconces and under canopy lighting. The site light standards and bollards are a combination of high pressure sodium and LED. Exterior lights installed on the Auditorium are LED. The exterior lights are controlled by a contactor in turn controlled by the BACS, ahead of the lighting panel LP-BA1.

3.1.3.2 EXPANSION OF SCOPE OF WORK Lighting through-out the proposed 32 bed expansion will be served by new LED fixtures ranging from standard recessed troffers, downlights and wall sconces to the suit the proposed layout. New lighting controls to be installed including occupancy sensors, dimmers, daylight sensors and etc. as required to suit the proposed layout and the requirements of the Ontario Building Code (OBC), SB-10 and Energy Standard for Buildings Except Low-Rise Residential Buildings (I-P Edition) ANSI/ASHRAE/IES Standard 90.1-2013. Lighting levels will be as per CSA Z317.5-2017 (Health Care Facility) Illumination Systems in Health Care Facilities and IESNA (Illuminating Engineering Society of North America) and the long-term care facility design manual. The designed levels will be the higher of the two. LED dimmable drivers will be specified to allow for dimming of all areas. LED color rendering lamps at 3500°K will be used to allow for proper skin tone rendering. The above referenced standards require different lighting levels in resident rooms for health examinations and normal use. To accommodate these different lighting comfort levels within the resident rooms, multiple occupancy and/or dimmers will be used. The activity areas will have both general lighting and task lighting for the specific activity. All interior lighting will be powered by 120 volts, and all will have dimmable option. In resident rooms, the emergency lighting will be supplied from a vital system lighting panel.

3.2.9 TELEPHONE/DATA SYSTEMS Telephone/data raceway system will be provided from the main telephone/data room to dedicated rooms located on the floors areas from the ground level to 2nd floor. All wiring from the dedicated rooms would be run in cable tray located in the main corridor and in conduit from the cable tray out to each room. All wiring would be FT6 rated and as described in section 2.5.#

3.2.9.1 WIRELESS DATA NETWORK Managed PoE switches will be provided at patch panels located in Equipment rooms (ER) Cat6 FT6 horizontal cables will be provided to wireless access points distributed to provide wireless connectivity to the entire floor area. Wireless access points will be mounted in accessible corridor ceilings throughout each wing. Cabling will be run in cable trays and conduit as described in section 2.8.

3.2.10 ENERGY REDUCTION Energy reduction would be archived by specifying energy efficient motors, motor drives, copper conductors, transformers, LED lighting and daylight harvesting lighting controls.

3.2.11 BUILDING METERING Building metering will be installed to meet ASHRAE 90.1. Advanced energy metering for the following will be installed. ' '

Whole-building energy sources used by the building; and Any individual energy end uses that represent 10% or more of the total annual consumption of the building.

The advanced energy metering will have the following characteristics. '

Meters will be permanently installed, record at intervals of one hour or less, and transmit data to a remote location.

Electricity meters will record both consumption and demand. Whole-building electricity meters will also record the power factor. The data collection system will use a local area network, building automation system, wireless network, or comparable communication infrastructure. The system will be capable of storing all meter data for at least 36 months. The data will be remotely accessible. All meters in the system will be capable of reporting hourly, daily, monthly, and annual energy use.

4 STORMWATER MANAGEMENT The proposed development will increase the imperviousness of the site. The post-development flow will likely need to be restricted to pre-development flow for the 2-year, 5-year, and 100-year storm events. HydroCAD 10.10-5a Stormwater Modelling software was used to calculate the pre-development and post-development flow conditions for the storm events with return periods of 2-year, 5-year, and 100-years for the site for both options (i.e., expansion and new building). The software uses the Modified Rational Method to optimize the system with various parameters such as time of concentration and peak flows. HydroCAD calculates the critical duration of the storm which is the duration that causes the highest peak flow at a given point in the watershed. The summary of pre- and post-development flows as well as storage requirements are summarized in Table 1 for the expansion option and Table 2 for the new building option (excludes new EMS facility). The HydroCAD modelling outputs have been provided in Appendix A. It should be noted that no topographic survey was provided and therefore, the flows were calculated based on the increase of imperviousness to the site to provide a high-level approximation for costing purposes only (not separated into outlets). Using the Ontario Flow Assessment Tool (OFAT), it appears that the stormwater in the western portion of the site drains to a watercourse located to the southwest which ultimately drains to Little Cataraqui Creek. A total area for the site was assumed to measure 9.78 hectares. Table 1: Pre- and Post-Development Stormwater Peak Flows (Expansion) FLOW EVENT

The use of Low Impact Development (LID) has been identified for potential use in cross and front yard drainage structures. The feasibility of a stormceptor and LIDs should be determined during detailed design.

Background On June 1, 2022, staff received correspondence from L. Bruce Cowle, of Madden, Sirman and Cowle, acting for Angela Nickerson, owner of the residence at 8327 Road 38 in Godfrey. This residence abuts the K&P trail and it was noted that a discrepancy in title was discovered, specifically an overlapping description between a section of the former railway land that is shown on old surveys as a “ballast pit” or “borrow pit”. When the title records were converted by the Ministry, some were left in the paper-based Registry Act. The client’s property was surveyed in 1970 and the 0.48 acre “borrow pit” was given its own legal description and is contained in the owner’s deed, FR739146. To clear the overlap, the property owner is seeking a quit claim deed for the parcel shown as a “borrow–pit” on the 1970 survey. Comment County Council, at its regular meeting held September 17, 2014, passed a County of Frontenac Land Use Policy which established a decision making framework for Council, staff and other stakeholders to ensure that the most efficient and least intrusive measure is applied to requests for use of lands owned by the County. The above request falls within the jurisdiction of the Land Use Policy. Staff are seeking authorization of council for the Warden and Clerk to grant a quit claim for this 0.48-acre parcel shown as a “borrow–pit” on the 1970 survey. Strategic Plan Alignment Priority 1

Get behind plans that build community vitality and resilience in times of growth and change.

1.2

Refine and invest in efforts to accelerate economic development — to grow businesses, attract more visits and expand the tax base.

1.3

Pursue proactive planning approaches that reflect local concerns and priorities within strategic regional planning policy so as to enhance service levels, manage rising demand for new housing and deal with new types of development.

Planning and Economic Development – Authorization to use Capital Reserve for Elbow Creek Bridge Replacement

Recommendation Be It Resolved That Council direct staff to proceed with the replacement of the Elbow Creek Bridge; And Further That Council authorize the use of $300,000 in reserve funds from the Capital Replacement Reserve for the removal and replacement of the Elbow Creek Bridge. Background The Elbow Creek Bridge was constructed in 2015 along with the Fish Creek Bridge by the Guardian Bridge Rapid Construction Company using a proprietary system of prefabricated bridge construction, consisting of fibreglass and wood. In 2017 it was discovered that the Fish Creek Bridge was failing as the material sealing the bridge deck was permitting water inside the structure, causing the wood to expand and push against the construction. After significant effort by staff to contact Guardian Bridge to remedy the situation, the deck was replaced in August of 2018. During the spring of 2021, it was discovered that a similar structural failure was taking place on the Elbow Creek Bridge. Subsequent investigations revealed that the bridge can support significant static loads but is in a deteriorating condition. In response, the County has erected physical barriers to limit the maximum size of bridge traffic to recreational trail vehicles.

At its regular meeting on December 15, 2021 County Council received Report 2021-123 and authorized the use of the capital replacement reserve to investigate options for the replacement of the Elbow Creek Bridge. Comment To determine options for rehabilitation or replacement of the Elbow Creek Bridge, Council authorized the single-source procurement of the engineering firm JL Richards to provide guidance. The report included 5 options: Option

Cost

Description

  1. Do Nothing (Not recommended)

$2,250/ Year

Keep the existing structure and limit access to pedestrian and cycling uses until it becomes untenable. The bridge could remain in service for up to ten more years

  1. Superstructure Replacement, Minor Substructure Repairs

$480,000 - $545,000

Remove deck and assess condition of exposed sections of substructure, replacing as necessary before installation of a prefabricated structure that utilizes substructure elements.

  1. Superstructure Replacement, Major Substructure Rehabilitation

$570,000 - $605,000

Remove deck and assess conduct detailed assessment of substructure. Once assessment is complete, substructure would be rehabilitated before the installation of a prefabricated structure that utilizes substructure elements. Use of substructure elements results in a lighter and cheaper superstructure.

  1. Structure Replacement, Multi Span

$1,175,000 $1,215,000

Remove entire structure including piers to 300mm below streambed) and replace it with a new multi-span bridge. The new substructure would consist of custom design cast-in-place concrete abutments and piers

$840,000 - $900,000

Remove the existing superstructure and replace it with a new single span prefabricated bridge supported on prefabricated abutments. The new abutments would be installed behind the existing abutments

  1. Structure Replacement, Single Span

over the existing substructure

After reviewing the significant cost estimates associated with each of the above recommendations, along with anticipated trail closures of four to twelve weeks, County staff consulted with the Upper Canada Snowmobile Region about experience with similar projects, and if cost savings could be realized through other approaches. The snowmobile club suggested that purpose-built prefabricated bridges, with a lower overall capacity could yield significant savings. Research indicates that a prefabricated bridge with a load rating of 20 tonnes could be purchased for approximately $100,000.00. Installation costs would likely be an additional $100,000 - $200,000. Subsequent to the options report outlined above, the County issued a request for proposals to procure engineering services to complete several bridge related projects on behalf of the County, including the contract management of a replacement solution for the Elbow Creek Bridge. Keystone Bridge Management was the successful bidder on this project, and the firms principal engineer conducted additional structural investigations of the existing bridge and bridge site, including an initial site visit with the Rideau Valley Conservation Authority. The choices were then narrowed to two potential options:

  1. Prefabricated Bridge Replace the existing bridge with a prefabricated single span “truss bridge” structure, with a limited load rating of 20 tonnes. The structure would be constructed and delivered by a third party and installed by a separate contractor. The site preparation and placement of the new bridge would be led by Keystone, however this option may require a closure of the trail for several weeks. To keep the cost of the new structure low, the new structure would have a limited load capacity of 20 tonnes Advantages: Very little work in water required with some fill and settlement required, but much less than the Culvert option. Disadvantages: A significant closure of the trail will be required to remove the existing bridge, prepare the abutments, deliver the new bridge and have it placed. Amount of fill may be difficult to estimate, resulting in additional costs. The bridge will be constructed to hold a maximum load of 20 tonnes.
  2. Culvert This option would see the replacement of the existing bridge gap with fill, which topped up periodically until the fill has settled and appropriately. Once the fill has settled, large concrete box culverts will be placed to ensure appropriate flow through the creek. The Rideau Valley Conservation Authority has been consulted on this option, and while Option 1 is preferred, would consider this option. Advantages: No long closures, no load limit on final product. Disadvantages: Amount of fill may be difficult to estimate, resulting in additional costs. There may be regulatory challenges with conservation authority or other regulatory bodies.

In both cases, the cost is estimated to be approximately $300,000.00 and the timeline for project completion is approximately 1 year. An additional solution was proposed by a local contractor at a lower cost and was also considered by Keystone. This solution involved use of a pair of steel “I” beams placed across the span on new abutments with a new bridge deck constructed on site. However, this option is a significantly larger construction and likely would displace existing aggregate at both abutment locations to a degree that is difficult to anticipate. This solution was quoted at less than $200,000 but risks associated with settlement are more likely and could be costly. Keystone does not recommend this option, and staff have concerns about ongoing costs/expenses with this solution. Initial conversations with the Trans Canada Trail, Upper Canada Snowmobile Region and Verona District ATV Club have indicated that some level of funding support may be available from each organization in partnership with the County for this project. Trans Canada Trail is requesting additional information about the project but could provide funding of up to 35% of the project (up to $105,000). They are seeking a commitment from motorized groups for matching funds as part of their requirements, and they consider the County to be a motorized partner. With a commitment to fund from the capital reserve, the Trans Canada Trail organization and other potential funding partners can have the confidence that the project will proceed. In terms of other partners, the Ontario Federation of Snowmobile Clubs (OFSC) could fund up to 70% of the project (up to $210,000). The application window for 2022 has closed, but County staff have been informed that this project should be submitted as soon as we are able in case additional funds become available. To submit for OFSC funding, procurement should be completed. In addition, the Verona District ATV Club has committed $6,000.00 towards the project. Staff are seeking approval to proceed with the bridge replacement using the capital reserve. Due to the nature of the bridge works involving abutments near the water, or even placing fill in the water, work must take place between the months of July and November to accommodate for nesting season early in the year and freezing and frost later in the year. As indicated above, there is interest from funding partners to support the project once the County has committed to move forward. Financial Implications County staff are seeking authorization to use $300,000 of the Capital Replacement Reserve to proceed with the replacement of the Elbow Creek Bridge. The new crossing will utilize either a prefabricated bridge or pursue the culvert option, subject to conservation approvals. Initial conversations with the Trans Canada Trail, Upper Canada Snowmobile Region and Verona District ATV Club have indicated that some level of funding support may be available from each organization in partnership with the County for this project.

The new FABExperiences.ca is an evolution of the original publication that provides a more accessible and user-friendly experience, as well as the opportunity to showcase the region to a national and international audience Comment The Frontenac Arch Biopsphere Network (FABN) has launched a new web guide to sustainable tourism for the Counties of Frontenac, Lanark and Leeds and Grenville called FAB Experiences, a project designed to develop and promote the Greater Frontenac Arch Biosphere Region as a Sustainable Tourism destination. The project is described as follows: “FAB Experiences will provide more convenient, userfriendly, and low-carbon-emission access through the development of a linked network of trails in Frontenac, Lanark and Leeds-Grenville counties paired with an accessible and engaging online tool that links together and supports the promotion of sustainable tourism products and services throughout the greater Frontenac Arch Biosphere (FAB) region” Project outcomes are described as the following:

  1. A new Tourism Product: FAB Experiences.ca: A one-stop-shop, fully accessible map with searchable and filterable listings showcasing tourism offerings throughout the greater FAB Region and linking them together through trails and routes promoting active transportation and rural tourism.
  2. Promotion of Rural and Remote Tourism Offerings: This web-based tool will support the development of rural and remote tourism offerings by highlighting their inclusion in route recommendations and by supporting offline use of the maps and GPS.
  3. Capacity Building and Sustainability: The initiative will advance the goal of a more sustainable and resilient local tourism economy by empowering businesses to sign on to the Charter for Sustainable Tourism as a member of the FAB Experiences program. Members will also have access to a comprehensive curriculum of workshops on Sustainable Tourism and training to adopt green practices in their day-to-day business. Workshops will also provide opportunities for cross-sector networking.
  4. Destination Development: By showcasing the tourism offerings of the three counties under one FAB Experiences initiative and by leveraging the UNESCO name, this initiative will expand the reach and marketability of the region as a distinct and diverse tourism destination and will capitalize on the shift in tourism trending toward demand for more sustainable and local travel options. This project will be primarily led by the team at the Frontenac Arch Biosphere network, with support from County staff to provide business contact information, GIS data and other advice as the project relates to Frontenac County.

Council. In particular, the emphasis on using trails to promote the region as well as developing a sustainable approach to tourism are key shared goals between the plan and this project. In addition, the use of online mapping to create guides and help visitors discover experiences in the region was a core strategy recommended in the Destination Plan to support the identified areas of focus: Outdoor Recreation, Culinary Tourism and Arts, Culture and Heritage. County staff have met with the Frontenac Arch Biosphere team and are confident that Frontenac County can operate as a partner on this project without losing focus on existing projects identified in the 2022-2026 Business Plan. This project is scheduled to be completed by the end of November 2022, and the Frontenac Arch Biosphere network is seeking to formalize the partnership through the signing of a memorandum of understanding. Strategic Priority Implications Priority 1.2: Refine and invest in efforts to accelerate economic development — to grow businesses, attract more visits and expand the tax base Priority 2.1: To meet the needs of future capital projects, explore new sources of funding support (current and future programs), cost-sharing options and other potential economies. Financial Implications No financial commitments have been made by Frontenac County for this project, however the Frontenac Arch Biosphere Network will compensate up to $1500 per month for staff time and County participation.

Planning & Economic Development - Authorization to participate in the RTO 9 Drive for Excellence Program

Recommendation Be It Resolved That the Council of the County of Frontenac receive the Planning & Economic Development - Authorization to participate in the RTO 9 Drive for Excellence Program Report; And Further That County Council authorize staff to enter into a Memorandum of Understanding with Regional Tourism Organization 9 (RTO 9) in order to participate in the Drive for Excellence Program Background In 2009, the Ontario government reviewed Ontario’s tourism industry. The study recommended creating tourism regions, each led by a regional tourism organization, to make Ontario’s tourism industry stronger and more competitive. Regional boundaries were developed after extensive consultation and submissions from industry partners and 13 regions were created across Ontario. The industry indicated that the regions need to be sustainable, capture unique product clusters and integrate existing brands and partnerships. The ministry also considered factors such as the tourist’s perspective, travel patterns, common markets, natural landforms and existing infrastructure.

Frontenac County is bridged by two regional tourism organization: RTO 9 (Southeastern Ontario) encompasses the Township of the Frontenac Islands and the Township of South Frontenac. RTO 11 (Ontario’s Highlands) contains the Townships of Central Frontenac and North Frontenac. Economic Development staff work with both regions to strengthen tourism product and to promote Frontenac County as part of each region. In 2021, Frontenac County partnered with both regional tourism organization to create the Regional Destination Development Plan, approved by County Council earlier this year. Comment Regional Tourism Organization 9 (RTO 9) has designed a partnership program specifically to support the established destinations that make up the region, called “Drive for Excellence.” Working with their agency of record, Alphabet Creative, RTO 9 offers a suite of services and programs to support destination development throughout Southeastern Ontario. This program allows destinations such as Frontenac County to self-identify their current readiness and to make use of professional services and marketing support to fulfill local needs. Working with the team at RTO 9, County staff have identified the need to capture a range of updated professional photos of the region across the Summer, Fall and Winter seasons. By working with RTO 9 on this project, the tourism organization will also have access to these assets for their own promotional efforts (which benefits Frontenac County). In addition, after several conversations with Tourism operators across the County, the need to support and train local businesses in packaging experiences has been identified. Through the Drive for Excellence program, RTO 9 can construct a workshop or series of workshops to support this type of product development in Frontenac. Strategic Priority Implications Priority 1.2: Refine and invest in efforts to accelerate economic development — to grow businesses, attract more visits and expand the tax base Priority 2.1: To meet the needs of future capital projects, explore new sources of funding support (current and future programs), cost-sharing options and other potential economies. Financial Implications The initiatives identified as part of the 2022-23 Drive for Excellence program have an estimated value of approximately $15,000.00. No matching funds are required from Frontenac County to participate in this program.

Planning and Economic Development – Request to Declare Lands as Surplus for the Purpose of a Right-of-Way over the Frontenac K&P Trail at PT LT 16-17 CON 1 and PT LT 16 CON 2, Geographic Township of Hinchinbrooke, Township of Central Frontenac

Recommendation Resolved That the Council of the County of Frontenac receive the Planning and Economic Development report – Request to Declare Lands as Surplus for the Purpose of a Right-of-Way over the Frontenac K&P Trail at PT LT 16-17 CON 1 and PT LT 16 CON 2 in Geographic Township of Hinchinbrooke, Township of Central Frontenac; And Further That in accordance with By-law Number 17-1995, the Council of the County of Frontenac pass a by-law at a future meeting to declare the subject lands surplus for the purpose of granting a right-of-way over part of the K&P Trail right-of-way for the purpose of accessing this newly created lot. And Further That Council of the County of Frontenac authorize staff to execute the necessary legal agreements to provide the above-noted legal right-of-way to the adjacent landowner subject to the following conditions:

  1. All surveying and legal fees be borne by the landowner;
  2. The right-of-way across the K&P Trail shall be surveyed to ensure access from Ball Road to both lots located along the western edge of the K&P Trail, a length of approximately 160 metres, as per the concept drawing included in Appendix A of this report;
  3. The crossing location will also provide public access to the K&P Trail from Ball Road, and this access will be reflected in the final agreement. A small parking area will be constructed on County property south of the Ball Road access at a future date, pending appropriate approvals.

Page 286 ofDevelopment 529 2022-084 Planning and Economic Request to Declare Lands as S…

4. The trail crossing on County lands will be upgraded, at the expense of the applicant, to the Frontenac County Private Roads (Lanes) Study standards, and in such a way to ensure the trail surface will not be exposed to unnecessary damage or deterioration from the improved crossing. Consideration will also be given to drainage. This work will be completed to the satisfaction of the Manager of Economic Development, or their designate. Background On December 13, 2021, at the regular meeting of the Committee of Adjustment for the Township of Central Frontenac, provisional consent was granted for the creation a rightof-way over the subject property to the K&P Trail to provide access to two new lots that were the subject of Township of Central Frontenac consent application numbers B-1121-HI & B-12-21-HI. Condition 7 of Application B-11-21-HI required the applicant to obtain a legal crossing/access across the K & P Trail to gain access to the retained lands. The applicant is seeking an easement over the K&P Trail to satisfy the conditions of the approvals, which include the following provision: Prior to stamping the Schedule for consent, the Township must be satisfied that an easement for access over the K&P Trail has been obtained from the County of Frontenac. If it is not possible or practical to register this easement prior to stamping the deeds, the Township will require the solicitor for the applicant to provide a signed copy of the Transfer of Easement, as well as an undertaking to register the easement as soon as possible once the severed lot has been created. a.

The access will extend approximately 160 metres (525 feet) south along the K & P Trail from a gate located on the northern limit of Ball Road to an existing gate that provides access to the retained lands.

A letter of application was made and received by the County on May 31, 2022. With the provisional approval from the Township of Central Frontenac, staff recommend approval of the crossing, with conditions. Comment County Council, at its regular meeting held September 17, 2014, passed a County of Frontenac Land Use Policy which established a decision-making framework for Council, staff and other stakeholders to ensure that the most efficient and least intrusive measure is applied to requests for use of lands owned by the County. The above request falls within the jurisdiction of the Land Use Policy and the right-of-way agreement will be on title for the subject property that will benefit from the easement. The proposed location of the right-of-way is an established trail crossing used by the current owner for transporting farm equipment. Following the consent application, staff note that it is the intent of the owner of the severed lot to place the lot up for sale on the west side of the K&P Trail. Staff will require improvements to the crossing in order to minimize impact of farm equipment or other large vehicles on the trail. It is a requirement that these upgrades be completed prior to the registration of the easement.

County staff support the creation of this right-of-way access, also intending to utilise it as a public access point to the K&P Trail. At a future date, a small parking area will be constructed at this location. Complaints have been received by the County and the Township of Central Frontenac with respect to trail users parking their vehicles along Ball Road. The parking area will support 2-3 vehicles and will ensure safe access for trail users and reduce concerns from local residents about use of Ball Road for parking. Staff are seeking authorization of council for the Warden and Clerk to establish a legal trail crossing with deeded access on title for the severed property located on the west side of the trail.

Planning and Economic Development – Operational Update and requirement for trail passes on the Frontenac K&P Trail

Recommendation Be It Resolved That County Council receive Report 2021-051 “Planning and Economic Development – Operational Update on the Frontenac K&P Trail” And Further That staff be directed to renegotiate the partnership agreement with the Verona District ATV Club to implement a trail pass requirement in 2023. Background At Council’s regular meeting on October 20, 2021, County Council approved the Frontenac K&P Trail Management Plan. This plan outlines the operational standards for the Frontenac K&P Trail, and includes information on risk management, construction, economic development, and partnership development. The annual maintenance approach and budget is set through this plan. Comment The use of the K&P Trail has remained consistent since the growth experienced during the pandemic. This results in the need to manage the effects of trail use on a regular basis in order to keep the experience attractive, interesting, safe and enjoyable for all. The Frontenac K&P Trail Management Plan has laid an excellent foundation for trail management, and several initiatives described in this report are outcomes from the plan.

Page 290 ofDevelopment 529 2022-087 Planning and Economic Operational Update and requir…

Maintenance The Frontenac K&P Trail Management Plan outlines a maintenance standard for the K&P Trail to ensure the trail remains a high quality, safe and enjoyable experience for all users. The surface is graded annually to improve drainage and prevent the formation of potholes. This is combined with compaction and, in some areas, treatment to mitigate dust. In 2022, the trail was graded only on the motorized sections between Verona and Clarendon Station, consisting of approximately 47.5 kilometres, and dust treatment was applied in villages and near sensitive areas throughout this section, amounting to approximately 28 kilometres. By late June vegetation often encroaches significantly into the trail, especially along the non-motorized sections located south of Verona. In some places, up to a metre, or 1/3 of the travelled portion of trail can be encroached upon with grasses and branches, which are potentially hazardous to cyclists. Mowing and brushing took place during the week of July 4 and crews will return in late August. In 2022, all bridges along the K&P Trail will be inspected to OSIM standards. Small and urgent repairs will be immediately addressed, with larger repairs scheduled for the following year. Significant capital repairs will be planned for and added to the County’s Asset Management plan. Capital Development Verona Trailhead A number of trail improvement projects are underway through the Investing In Canada Infrastructure Program (ICIP), Community, Culture and Recreation Stream (CCR). This multi-year funding has been directed to safety and access improvements throughout the trail. Most notably, the Verona Trailhead has been substantially upgraded and improved to provide access to the K&P Trail. However, this program has also funded several kilometres of edge protection along sections of the trail with steep edges, and the purchase of 40 benches for installation at appropriate intervals along the trail. These installations are scheduled to take place in September and October. Elbow Creek Bridge Replacement The Elbow Creek Bridge remains restricted to trail traffic only. Report 2022-081 provides background on the status of this bridge, and requests authorization to use the capital replacement reserve to proceed with the removal of this bridge and the installation of its replacement. Development Phase 6: Clarendon to Wilbur Land acquisition efforts continue in North Frontenac, with trail rehabilitation planned for 8 kilometres between Clarendon Station and Snow Road Station this fall. Negotiations continue with landowners in the Snow Road Station area.

Policy County staff have been working to develop policy to ensure the trail is maintained appropriately and that issues are identified and responded to appropriately. This includes some policy required to assist in the enforcement of unwanted behaviour such as travelling at high speeds, damaging signs, failing to yield to other users and so forth. Policy also includes consideration of crossings, fencing concerns and other land use items. A key policy discussion over the past year is regarding the requirement of trail passes for motorized users. Trail Pass At its regular meeting on January 19, 2022, following a presentation from Mr. Wayne Robinson, County Council considered Report 2022-005 and directed staff to enter into negotiations between the Ontario Federation of Snowmobile Clubs, the Eastern Ontario Trails Alliance and the Ontario Federation of ATV Clubs on the development of a Joint Usage Agreement for the K&P Trail. The Verona District ATV Club has had a partnership agreement in good standing with Frontenac County for the past 3 years. With 200 members, the club is relatively small compared to others in Eastern Ontario (Renfrew ATV Club has over 3000 members). As a result, a key barrier identified to growing the club’s membership is the lack of a requirement for a trail permit for motorized users. Almost all multi use trails require permits or passes for motorized use in Eastern Ontario. Renfrew County is currently in the process of establishing a revised agreement with the Renfrew ATV Club to require a pass on the Algonquin & K&P Trails, which is consistent with permit requirements in Lanark County. While the Verona District ATV Club can offer some financial support to capital projects and maintenance each year, the benefits of the partnership with the club continue to keep the resources required by the county for trail administration at a manageable level. Some key benefits of the partnership include: •

Trained Club “Ambassadors” (also referred to as wardens) patrol the K&P Trail every weekend from May until November. These Ambassadors engage with and support the trail community while also identifying any minor or major maintenance needs.

Club members organize to keep the trail clear of trees and other debris after storms. One of the club members is a certified arborist and has assisted in the removal of some difficult and dangerous tree limbs.

Assistance with small repairs, monitoring and clearing of culverts, and brushing/trimming high visibility areas.

Assistance with dust control in difficult locations

Coordination of portable washroom facilities in key locations

The volunteer “eyes” on the trail are of immense value to County staff, saving countless hours of patrols and investigations for the Manager of Economic Development. The same can be said of the minor repairs and culvert clearing. This work, if not completed by volunteers, would require additional seasonal staff to support trail operations. County staff recommend that an agreement be negotiated with the Verona District ATV Club to require an Ontario Federation of ATV Clubs pass in 2023 to remain consistent with neighbouring Counties with similar multiuse trails that connect to the K&P Trail. Staff also acknowledge that there are other groups and organizations with pass systems in Eastern Ontario, such as the Eastern Ontario Trails Alliance. As such, staff also recommend that the County remain open to additional partnerships with these groups, but that they be required to have reciprocal agreements with existing partners to ensure fairness and transparency. It is the understanding of County staff that the Verona District ATV Club requires an OFATV pass, but also honours the passes of the Eastern Ontario Trails Alliance. Trail Bylaw County staff have begun to draft a trail bylaw, along with a schedule of fines that would be implemented through an Administrative Monetary Penalty. This work has been delayed due to staff changes in both the clerk’s office and on the economic development team. The bylaw will continue to move forward but does need to be reviewed from a legal perspective before it can be presented to Council. This bylaw is aimed at preventing unwanted behaviour on the trails and to support the positive work of trail volunteers and ambassadors. Economic Development & Tourism This year the Economic Development Team launched two new programs targeted at connecting trail users with businesses in the community: a signage program and the Frontenac mobile phone application. In addition, our trail counters have now been operational for a full year and are beginning to provide interesting insights into who is using the trail and when. Business Signage Program The signage program is a pay-to-play program where businesses can purchase a presence on the trail in the form of wayfinding signs, as well as directional arrows near their place of business. Over a dozen businesses are participating in the first year of the program. This program is a cost recovery program, aimed at recuperating the expenses associated with the creation and installation of the signs.

The Frontenac App The Frontenac mobile phone application launched on June 28, 2022. The app incentivizes trail users and other visitors to Frontenac County to discover nearby businesses through the collection of points, and some businesses may offer rewards. The app uses geolocation to allow for points collection and shows distances to various businesses and attractions based on where the user is located. As of the writing of this report there are 18 locations available to collect points, and 10 locations where points can be redeemed for a reward in the form of a discount or free product or service. Businesses can shift and change the rewards offered as they feel necessary. Examples of rewards include: •

50 points for a 10% discount from a purchase over $25 (Asselstine Hardware)

100 points for a 10% discount (Rockhill B&B)

50 points for a free 1 hr consultation (Kingston Hockey Development Centre)

50 points for a free donut, muffin or croissant (Cardinal Café)

To date, there are 131 registered users on the app, but so far no rewards have been redeemed.

Trail Counts There are 10 Trail Counters distributed throughout the 70 kilometres of the K&P Trail operated by Frontenac County between the City of Kingston and Clarendon Station. These counters collect data as trail users pass by and report on time, day, type of user and direction. This information is useful for maintenance and infrastructure planning but also demonstrates the market potential of the trail for local businesses, when combined with survey data that provides insight into purchasing habits and interests. The two charts that follow share the type of use month by month across all 10 trail Counters and the total and average use trends between January 1 and June 30, 2022.

Financial Implications The operating costs for trail maintenance, marketing and management initiatives described in this report are included in the annual budget. A continued partnership with the Verona ATV Club reduces the need for County staff to inspect the trail on a regular basis and to hire contractors to resolve small repairs. If a Trail Pass is required for ATV/ORV, managed by the Club and its Ambassador, an increase of financial support from the club can be expect. Over the past three years, the club has contributed approximately $6,000 directly to capital projects such as the Hinchinbrooke Station parking area and the Elbow Creek Bridge Replacement. This is in addition to renting portable washrooms and the purchase of garbage receptacles.

Recommendation Recommendation Be It Resolved That the Office of the CAO – Approval of Proposal for Paramedic Station at 2069 Battersea Road report be received; And Further That the Council of the County of Frontenac authorize the Warden and Clerk to enter into an agreement with Wemp & Smith Construction Ltd. for the design and build of a paramedic base at 2069 Battersea Road in the amount of $2,499.960. Background On May 18, 2022, Council authorized the staff to proceed with a Request for Proposals (RFP) for the construction of a new two bay paramedic station located at 2069 Battersea Road, with final approval of the award of the project to be confirmed by Council. Staff will conducting interviews and completing due diligence prior to the meeting and will provide further details during the Council meeting. Comments On June 15, 2022, staff issued the Request for Proposal for the design-build of the proposed Paramedic Station. The Request for Proposal closed on July 13, 2022 with four bids received: Bidder DC&F Corp. Wemp & Smith Construction Ltd.

JCB Construction Canada Inc.

$3,699,474.60

The low bidder, DC&F Corporation, did not provide costing based on Post-Disaster Construction standards. Section 2.4 of the RFP required design-build contractors to follow the Ontario Building Code for design of the Station including all provisions for the construction of a post-disaster building. When asked for clarification, DC&F Corporation was unable to provide an estimate on cost to build the station to Post-Disaster Construction standards. As well, DC&F omitted items priced by other bids such as, the cost for a hydro connection, the required permitting for septic installation and winter construction. As such, staff are unable to confirm they exact price of their bid. Based on DC&F Corporation’s response, the evaluation team deemed Wemp & Smith Construction Ltd. as having submitted the lowest eligible bid.

Financial Implications The budgeted amount to construct a new paramedic station was $1,530,000 for the 2022 budget. Given the recent increase in construction costs, the estimates provided in report 2022-055 on May 18, 2022 were for a build in the $2-$3 million range. The new building would be a capital expense and subject to the LSR cost sharing agreement with the City of Kingston. Based on the 2022 budget rate, the County’s portion of the total expense would be 20.304%. The County portion of the new building could be funded through the Stabilization Reserve or borrowing. Given the uncertainty around cost considerations and interest rates, staff will report back to Council at a later date with a preferred option. Strategic Priorities Implications Priority 2 2.3

Explore new funding sources and invest wisely in critical long-term infrastructure.

Develop plans within a changing legislative and service delivery landscape to provide additional facilities for Frontenac Paramedics that will effectively meet steadily growing demand for services and accommodate more paramedic training.

Comments Construction is set to begin on July 18th, as County of Frontenac Administration Staff abatement of building took place on July 15th. In terms of a Lease Agreement with the CRCA, the driving factor for lease payments was dependent upon the square footage occupied by each party, and the execution of the lease agreement was to be completed once the detailed designs were finalized. With all designs now finalized and borrowing details, through Report 2022-078 also on today’s agenda, an agreement has been drafted and reviewed by Cunningham Swan which has been approved by all parties. Staff are recommending that Council now authorize the Warden and Clerk to execute the Lease Agreement, which is attached to this report as Appendix A. Strategic Priority Implications Priority 3 Champion and coordinate collaborative efforts with partners to resolve complex problems otherwise beyond the reach Specifically, the objectives that support this strategy states that the County will continue to pursue collaborative opportunities to achieve service and cost efficiencies and other economies through cost-sharing and shared services. This priority identifies the CRCA as a current and potential project partner Recommend Report to County Council Office of the Chief Administrative Officer – Authorization to enter into a Lease Agreement with the Cataraqui Region Conservation Authority (CRCA) for a Joint Administrative Facility July 20, 2022 Page 2 of 3

In addition, shared facilities reduce the overall environmental footprint required to occupy two separate facilities. Depending upon outcomes/options in terms of a shared facility, the overall greenhouse gas footprint of the County could be reduced because of this project, thereby assisting in meeting our GHG emission requirements as noted in the County’s Energy Conservation and Demand Management Plan. Financial Implications Based on the schedule provided from the contractor, occupancy for Cataraqui Conservation would begin January 1, 2023, with full completion of the building on January 1, 2024. The amount of the lease payments will be finalized after construction is complete and subject to the total cost of construction and the interest rate at the time of borrowing. The lease payments by Cataraqui Conservation would begin after substantial completion for a term of 20 years. The current estimated lease payment by Cataraqui Conservation would be $120,761 per year, based on the total cost of the building and a 31.8% allocation of costs determined by its share of dedicated space. This indicative lease payment is based off the cost of borrowing for an estimated construction cost of $4,640,000 and an interest rate of 4.66% over a 20-year term. Under the lease agreement, the cost of utilities would be excluded from the lease payment. Cataraqui Conservation and the County would be responsible for their own costs for internet and telephone service. Joint costs, such as hydro, natural gas, snow clearing, janitorial services, common area maintenance, technology and capital replacement, and alarm and security costs would be shared in accordance with the 68.2%/31.8% allocation in relation to square footage as “Additional Rent” in the agreement.

Office of the Chief Administrative Officer – Public Meeting Report and next steps regarding Communal Services Draft Business Case Study

Recommendation Resolved That the Council of the County of Frontenac receive the Office of the Chief Administrative Officer – Public Meeting Report and next steps regarding Communal Services Draft Business Case report for information And Further That the Council of the County of Frontenac approve the Business Case Study based on all input from the Townships and the Public; And Further That the Business Case Study be forwarded to the member municipalities with a request for their consideration prior to August 18, 2022; And Further That Council direct staff to begin the implementation of step 5, being by drafting agreements and documents for approval by all Councils. Background Prior to final consideration of the creation of a Municipal Service Corporation (MSC), a municipality must prepare a Business Case Study (BSC) and receive public input. In June, 2019, County Council formally endorsed the Frontenac Communal Services Study.

Page of 529 Officer Public Meeting Repor… 2022-290 Office of the Chief320 Administrative

As part of that endorsement, County Council also directed staff to “investigate financial models and utility models that can be used to significantly reduce the municipal financial risk of approving development on communal services and entering into a Municipal Responsibility Agreement (MRA) and report back to Council.” Subsequently, in June, 2020, Council passed a motion to create a ‘Communal Services Governance/Operations Review Committee’ to review different governance models to manage communal systems. The Committee is comprised of the four Mayors of the Townships as well as four citizens that have expertise in land development, civil engineering, financing, and governance. Also, representatives from the Ministry of Environment, Conservation and Parks and the Ministry of Municipal Affairs have attended the sessions to assist with any questions with respect to the Municipal Act, the Planning Act, and the Water Resources Act. A consulting firm was retained to report directly to the Committee and to assist in the following:

Conducting a review of governance and management structure best practices and governance structures in Ontario;

Developing a set of governance models to be considered; and

Recommending a preferred governance model for the Frontenac region.

Since August, 2020, the committee has held six meetings to review the options for how best to manage communal systems. The consultants delivered a final report to the governance committee at their meeting held on April 7, 2021, which recommended the use of the Municipal Service Corporation (MSC) as the preferred model, in part for the following reasons:

Comment The Public Meeting held on July 13, 2022 saw four (4) members of the public attend in person and fourteen (14) attended virtually. Four members of the public raised questions and concerns regarding either site specific developments or how private systems or assets would affect shares in a MSC. Members of Council also raised questions again regarding how private assets would be incorporated into a MSC and the effects on municipalities. One comment was made by Deputy Warden Higgins that the consultant had indicated in the report that communal services cannot be privately owned and stated that this is incorrect and asked that this be reviewed again when discussed at Council. A copy of the minutes of the public meeting are attached to this report as Appendix A.

Moved By: Seconded By:

Councillor Smith Councillor Higgs

Resolved That the Council of the County of Frontenac receive the Office of the Chief Administrative Officer – Public Meeting Report – Communal Services Draft Business Case report for information And Further That the matter be referred to the next County Council meeting to consider any changes necessary to the Business Case Study based upon public input. Carried Warden Doyle called on the County’s Director of Planning and the CAO to explain the purpose of the public meeting. A presentation was provided, a copy of which is attached to the record in the Clerk’s Office. Warden Doyle then invited those who were attending in person to come and speak. Ms. Kathleen Clayton asked if these systems are only being considered for future development or will they also be available for existing developments and systems, to which Mr. Gallivan gave the example of the Marysville Secondary Plan currently being undertaken now on Wolfe Island which contemplates this is where Township Council may consider allowing existing properties in Marysville to hook up to this system. Mr. Gallivan noted that in this case it would be at the owners expense and there is no obligation for existing homes to connect. In terms of follow up, Mr. Gallivan indicated that generally, the communal services study considered new development rather than existing residential areas. Warden Doyle then invited those attending virtually to speak. Ms. Brenda Martin asked, in terms of the Sharbot Lake public school site, how this site will access the lake water given the complex is in the middle of the village, to which Mr. Gallivan noted the intention will be for a pipe that will collect water from the lake and pump it up to the site. This will require environmental approvals from the Ministry of the Environment as well as the Mississippi Conservation Authority. As a follow up, Mr. Gallivan indicated that the pipes would be buried under public roadways and not under private lands. Ms. Cindy Deachman asked, in terms of the Asset Transfer policy, how the share structures will affect the overall project when assets are transferred in, and would shares be issued in lieu of, and will that dilute the share system as she is concerned with what is initially set up will change over time. Mr. Pender noted that when and if assets are transferred in, such as the municipal water system in Sydenham, this would need to be a decision of the Township of South Frontenac Council and the membership will decide how that happens. All participating municipalities will need to vote on the Special Public Meeting of Council Minutes July 13, 2022

Page of 529 Officer Public Meeting Repor… 2022-290 Office of the Chief327 Administrative

Page 2 of 5

types of shares. Ms. Deachman followed up by asking if, in 10 years a developer asks that an asset be transferred to the Municipal Service Corporation (MSC), how would that work, to which Mr. Pender responded that if an asset is coming from a private developer, it would be a direct purchase and sale or a cash deal as a MSC cannot have private shareholders. The developers would transfer the asset to the Corporation, not the municipality and this would be dealt with through a Plan of Subdivision agreement. Ms. Darlene Plumley asked if this affects a municipalities current Asset Management Plan to which Mr. Pender responded no as a MSC is a separate corporate entity. Ms. Cindy Deachman noted that the February 2021 report speaks about the viability of this system and asked what the scope of the conversation was with developers as smaller rural communities do not have large developments. Mr. Gallivan noted that this question had also come up during public sessions in Marysville and the answer is that the demand for new housing – and mixed housing - is going to be there. In terms of consultations with developers, there was one meeting with five developers as part of the 2019 study and each developer was positive about setting up a utility and indicated that it would make it easier for developers to create business plans and sell this to potential home buyers. Warden Doyle then invited any other persons wishing to make comments on or ask questions about communal services, to speak To questions raised by Councillor Revill regarding liability on the municipality should a catastrophe happen, Mr. Pender noted that the legal opinion from the County’s lawyers indicates there is no liability to municipalities and were a catastrophe to happen, the MSC could borrow. Council Revill noted the reports indicated there is a financial ask from all municipalities to set up the MSC and provide seed funding until the MSC had the ability to set this up, to which Mr. Pender noted that there is no ability for a MSC to ask for additional money from municipalities and the seed money is only to set up the MSC. Councillor Ron Vandewal asked if the municipality has to contribute seed money or just a letter indicating that if something were to happen it could support this, to which Mr. Pender responded that the initial contribution as laid out in report #2. Beyond that, any financial contribution is strictly voluntary. The entire system is set up similar to assuming a municipal road. The business case sets out the financial commitment over 5 years. Councillor Gerry Martin noted that there are two existing systems in North Frontenac and asked if we allow these private systems to become part of the MSC, to which Mr. Gallivan noted that there is the possibility if they asked to become part of this but the utility would need to inspect the existing system and would require the private system be brought up to standards prior to transfer; however this would be the utility and not the municipality taking on the private system. Deputy Warden Higgins asked why an MRA doubles the cost for developers, to which Mr. Gallivan noted the requirement that a municipality enter into an agreement should the developer go bankrupt, which then puts the municipality on the hook to fix it should Special Public Meeting of Council Minutes July 13, 2022

Page of 529 Officer Public Meeting Repor… 2022-290 Office of the Chief328 Administrative

Page 3 of 5

something go wrong. As such, based on research, no rural municipality will take that risk on without requiring the developer to put up the money and set up a trust fund, which doubles the cost of development. The utility takes this out as there will be no need for a municipal agreement as the structure is owned by the utility. This can be done through Plan of Subdivision agreements. In addition, the utility would not need to take the system over right away as if the system were to fail, it generally happens in the first few years. Deputy Warden Higgins noted the consultant had indicated in the report that communal services cannot be privately owned and this is incorrect and asked that this be reviewed again when discussed at Council. Mr. Pender noted that in Ontario, you cannot privatize municipal water systems. You can however do this with communal systems. If this MSC comes into being, it cannot sell those assets and that is what is referenced in the study. It doesn’t mean you can’t have one. Deputy Warden Higgins asked what would happen if we go with a MSC and a Township decides to opt out. Mr. Pender noted that the key point is that this is your Townships decision, and you can opt out. If you are outside of the MSC, the MSC cannot do work within your municipality in terms of water.

Strategic Priorities Implications The establishment of a Procedural By-law Review Committee falls under the Other Important and Continuing County Priorities identified in Councils 2019-2022 Strategic Priorities, specifically: • •

Continually improve customer and financial services. Maintain a strong organization and positive work culture through leadership, human resources, training and development, physical and IT infrastructure, and partnerships.

Financial Implications The costs associated with Committees that are not legislated is the cost of covering mileage of the Committee members. Given the current global health crises, meetings will continue via virtual electronic format, or in person should current conditions improve. As a result, any costs associated with the establishment of this Committee would be minimal. Organizations, Departments and Individuals Consulted and/or Affected County Council

The addition of this definition helps Council better understand that a failure to vote is actually a vote in the negative.

“Advisory Committee” means a committee established by Council to act in an advisory capacity to Council on operational and strategic issues during the full term of Council.

The definition of Committee under the Act is only if 50% of the members are also members of one or more councils or local boards. This definition reflects more Committees in which Council has established for Citizen appointees with only 1 or 1 Council reps.

This definition differentiates Committees with only Agreed Council members (such as the CAO Performance Appraisal Review Committee and the Administrative Building Design Task Force, so that in the definition of “Closed Meeting” that it only permits Standing Committees to go into closed session. Committees with Citizen Appointees should not have the ability to go into closed session as members of the public hold no accountability and should not be privy to confidential and sensitive information.

“Motion to Postpone” means a motion by which action on a pending question can be put off, within limits, to a definite day, meeting, or hour, or until after a certain event.

This is intended to replace the Motion to Defer. Roberts Rules of Order states that a motion to defer should be avoided, since it is often subject to vague usage.

Would be added to the motions section as well. Clerk keeps an abeyance list and provides list to Senior Leadership team for review. Report comes to Council at end of their term regarding the status of the outstanding list of items.

Section 2, 2.3

“Ombudsman” means the Ombudsman appointed under the Ombudsman Act

The County no longer appoints its own Ombudsman so this makes clear that the County’s Ombudsman is the Ontario Ombudsman and that any complaints made under Subsection 223.13(1) or Subsection 239.2(1) of the Act default to the Ontario Ombudsman

“two-thirds majority vote” means an affirmative vote of at least twothirds of the Members present at a meeting

There are some motions, such as the waiving of the Procedural By-law, which require a 2/3 vote. It is key to identify this as well as have the minutes reflect when a 2/3 vote is received as the Ombudsman is also able to investigate when a municipality has not followed its Procedural Bylaw.

The discussion also included a suggestion to have Deputations assigned a specific time in the agenda; however for most meetings, this would require the additional procedure of having to pass a motion to waive the procedural by-law when closed meetings do not run late or there is no closed meeting on the agenda. It was determined that of the closed meetings throughout the year, the likelihood of them running late is slim and the recommendation from staff that should a meeting be running late, that it adjourn and carry on at the end of the meeting is the best

The Committee opted for a mix of what the County of Renfrew was doing, with the addition of parental leave, as well as restrictions by Hastings County about which meetings should be in person such as Inaugural, Budget and other meetings where the majority of Council required it. The Committee also opted to include the provisions of Haliburton that restrict a member to only being able to participate two times per year, with any additional participation being permitted only with permission of the Warden. Unlike Haliburton, the Committee and staff felt that the Clerk should not be responsible for providing such permission.

Staff have consulted with a pier around the status of items already voted on and passed at a meeting before quorum was lost. As suspected, staff are not able to act on resolutions passed prior to council losing quorum valid and can staff act on those in the absence of a confirmatory by-law being passed. Council enacts a confirming by-law to confirm all the decisions made up until the point the by-law is introduced. This ensures that the County complies with the legal requirement under the Municipal Act that it act by by-law.

Not sure if this section is still relevant or required given that we now have electronic meeting provisions as well as the ability for a member to send his/her alternate if they are unable to attend.

Office of the Chief Administrative Officer – Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) and Balanced Scorecard Update

Recommendation This report is for information purposes only. Background County Council embarked on a Service Delivery and Organizational Review in the fall of 2013. At that time, KPMG, the successful consulting firm, recommended undertaking a Lean review of 2 processes. Since then, the County of Frontenac has made a commitment to quality and quality improvement in all of its processes. The County has been working towards establishing a culture of continuous improvement across the organization by engaging staff through training and participation in project teams that use Lean Six Sigma methodology. As part of this commitment to quality and quality improvement, County staff have developed Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) along with a Balanced Scorecard to provide Council with a view of how effectively the organization is achieving its operational goals. Comment Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) are an important aspect of measuring and demonstrating how an organization is achieving its key objectives. County staff have developed meaningful indicators that align with the goals and objectives of each department. These KPIs are reviewed and compiled each year to provide Council and staff with insights and track trends over time. The KPIs align with four perspectives: Customer Focus, Financial Performance, Process Improvement, and Learning and Growth. This allows us to generate a Balanced Scorecard for the organization as a whole and identify opportunities for improvement.

2021 was another difficult year as County staff continued to deal with the realities of the COVID-19 pandemic. In most cases it was all-hands on deck as staff worked to address shifting needs and priorities. Many staff continued to work remotely from home, and this made it difficult to undertake process improvement initiatives as we have in previous years. Our staff have been resilient and learned a lot of lessons through the course of the pandemic. We’ve applied these lessons and continue to strive towards our targets. Customer Focus: The County strives to improve customer focus and engagement and aims to provide efficient and effective services. This remains a top priority across the organization. In 2021, we achieved our targets in 15 out of the 26 KPIs. This is down from previous years and can be attributed to a few factors described below:

  1. Frontenac Paramedics came up short on 2 of their 6 Legislated Response Time targets. (CTAS-4 and SCA). However, it should be noted that in both cases this was within one percentage point of the target.
  2. Our social media KPIs have always focused on increasing followers. We have recorded significant increases year over year, but this trend has started to level out. As a result, we have shifted our focus towards tracking engagement as opposed to followers. This should give us a better sense of engagement going forward.
  3. Attendance management continues to be a focus for improvement and a number of positive results have been realized. Staff fatigue and recruitment challenges have had a significant impact on operations. However, our staff continued to show resiliency through another difficult year. Financial Performance: Since 2016, the KPIs related to financial performance have trended steadily upward. This speaks to the financial stability of the organization. Return on investment continues to improve and we have had success receiving grant funding. In 2021, we achieved our targets in 8 out of 15 KPIs. Even where we didn’t achieve the target we continue to trend positively upward. Most notably, our Long-Term Sustainability continues to improve. In 2016, this KPI sat at 70.67% and by 2021 it has risen to 89.07%. Process Improvement: Process improvement remains an important function of our efforts to engage staff and work towards changing the conversation from “we have always done it that way” to “how can we do it better?” In 2021, we achieved our targets in 15 out of the 21 KPIs. This is similar to our results in 2020 as there were some challenges undertaking process improvement initiatives as the organization dealt with the day-to-day uncertainties of the pandemic. Learning and Growth: We continue to grow as an organization and invest in staff training and opportunities. This has helped us to attract top talent and develop both technical and leadership skills. As a result, our Learning and Growth KPIs have remained stable. In 2021, we achieved our targets in 12 out of the 14 KPIs. This is a slight improvement from 2020. Staff were not able to attend in-person conferences and training workshops but have found ways to engage in virtual offerings.

Overall, in 2021, we achieved 50 out of 78 KPI targets.

Sustainability Implications Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) allow us to identify opportunities to improve our processes. Combined with our Lean efforts this helps staff implement innovative solutions that allow us to provide more effective and sustainable services to our customers. Financial Implications The LIFT program provides staff with the tools and training to identify and eliminate waste in their day-to-day processes. Through the efforts of Lean project teams we aim to realize efficiencies and cost savings across the organization. Savings come in the form of staff time, space, processing, resources, operational savings, and wait days.

RE:

Senior Housing County Funding

Background The County has provided finances to assist each Township to provide senior housing within the respective jurisdictions. In the case of North Frontenac that funding equals $337.5K. Since February 2018 North Frontenac has been assessing how, when and where to build such a facility. To that end we conducted a survey to find out the actual need and the resulting feedback was that most seniors would like to stay in their homes versus moving to senior residence. On May 16, 2018, North Frontenac requested that the County Council reallocate funds to keeping seniors at home which was rejected. North Frontenac Council did not want to lose out on the County funding so we embarked on a study to find out what we should build and where. Our options for land and affordability dictated that we were not comfortable to move ahead and decided to approach the County Since that time, we have been actively trying to identify a solution including partnering with Central Frontenac in their senior housing project, which would also require County Council approval Research By Deputy Warden Higgins and Councillor Martin Comments Since 2018 North Frontenac Council has been focused on keeping senior residents in their homes for as long as possible based on a survey of our seniors.

Pageof457 ofFrontenac 529 Request by the Township North Re-allocation of Seniors Hous…

North Frontenac has also been trying to identify a senior housing option as well due largely in part the amount of funding ($337.5K) being provided by the County. After working on this since 2018 North Frontenac Council has looked at many options for a senior housing facility and in the end, we decided not to invest in a facility for the following reasons.

  1. Location for a facility is very limited
  2. Costs have dramatically increased
  3. Only serves up to 5 seniors or couples
  4. Does not align with the wishes of our seniors as per our survey Our options are to either to decline the funds being provided from the County as the current stipulation requires a facility, or another option is to ask County Council one more time to reallocate the funds to allow us to keep our seniors in their homes. We decided to request reallocation of the County Funds, as much has changed since we asked in 2018. It is our opinion that as a lower tier municipality we owe it to our residents to comply with their wishes and based on the input received we are moving towards building a Seniors Reserve Fund to accommodate our seniors to stay at home. Recently, in partnership with the County, we implemented a Paramedicine program to assist our seniors and others that require medical related assistance versus traveling to medical facilities which supports our plan to keep seniors in their homes. In the County’s strategic plan, it states. Champion and coordinate collaborative efforts with partners to resolve complex problems otherwise beyond the reach of individual mandates and jurisdictions. Work with the townships, other municipalities and levels of government on broad infrastructure issues — ranging from environmental concerns to regional transportation strategies for residential, social and economic purposes, and access to funding. In North Frontenac our strategic plan states. Support opportunities for seniors to stay in their homes •

Pageof458 ofFrontenac 529 Request by the Township North Re-allocation of Seniors Hous…

North Frontenac has decided that we will focus on keeping seniors at home and not build a senior’s residence due to local needs, limited assistance to all seniors in North Frontenac, affordability and trying to do our part to limit the need for seniors to require senior housing or Long-Term Care (LTC). In addition, the last few years of the Pandemic has shown the risks of senior’s congregating in LTC and senior housing facilities from a health perspective. The pandemic has also shown us how valuable it is to care for seniors in the comfort of their own homes and avoid the need for accessing overloaded medical facilities. By providing our seniors with in-home support from simple yard maintenance to Paramedicine allows our seniors to stay together and live in a secure, familiar, and comfortable setting for as long as possible. To that end, North Frontenac Council will be transferring our $100K in funds that were allocated to a senior housing facility over to a Seniors Reserve Fund. We are asking the County Council to consider this report and to approve the transfer of the County related funding allocations of $337.5K to North Frontenac’s Seniors Reserve Fund. This will allow for a well-funded startup Reserve that would be maintained for our seniors through regular top ups to the Reserve by North Frontenac. This program would allow us to assist all of North Frontenac seniors’ population versus a select few that would have access to a senior housing facility. To implement this program North Frontenac Council has invited our local community services organization to attend the July 15th Council Meeting to discuss options for providing home maintenance to seniors in North Frontenac, for Council’s consideration on them managing this program on our behalf due to their track record and their experience in dealing with such matters. To that end we are putting a motion forward (seconded by Councillor Martin) that the County transfer the $337.5K which was previously allocated to a senior housing facility to North Frontenac’s Seniors Reserve Fund.
