Page 2 of 72 February 21, 2023 2 of 15 Report No. PDS23-016 Executive Summary This report seeks Council’s approval of a Draft Plan of Subdivision and Zoning By-law Amendment application for the lands located at 5-70 Archerhill Court. Details of the proposal are as follows: The subject lands are currently comprised of 14 Estate Residential lots and Archerhill Court and are located at the northwest corner of Bayview Avenue and Vandorf Sideroad. The applicant proposes to rezone the lands from Estate Residential to Residential Third and Fourth Density, Public Open Space, and Environmental Protection, with site-specific zoning standards as outlined in Appendix ‘B’. The application has been subject to two Public Planning Meetings (June 2022 and January 2023) with revisions and updates being made to the proposal to enhance trail connections, improve access, increase park space, and also reduce density to now be 138 single detached units (originally 146, then 139, now 138). Over 3 hectares of the subject lands will be conveyed to the Town as Open Space blocks / Environmental Protection, and a further 0.458 hectares are to be dedicated as a community park along Vandorf Sideroad. The applicant proposes that the Town convey the existing public road known as Archerhill Court to the owner of the subject lands for the purpose of creating a new road network to be dedicated back to the Town. Conditions of Draft Plan of Subdivision approval have also been developed to comprehensively ensure the appropriate and orderly development of the lands, as outlined in Appendix ‘A’ of this report. Background Application History An initial pre-consultation package for the proposed applications was issued on January 15, 2021. The applications were then received by the Town on August 4, 2021 and deemed complete on September 22, 2021. Page 3 of 72 February 21, 2023 3 of 15 Report No. PDS23-016 A virtual Community Information meeting, hosted by the applicant, was held on January 20, 2022, to introduce the application to area residents and obtain feedback. The meeting was attended by 29 residents, representatives of the Town, and the applicant and their consulting team. In addition, a resident committee comprised of representatives of Monkman Court was created. The committee and the applicant met twice and continued communicating through the balance of the review process. A statutory Public Planning Meeting for subject applications was first held on June 14, 2022. At this meeting, Council passed a motion to receive Report No. PDS22-083, and to have comments be addressed by the applicant and presented back in a report to a future Public Planning meeting. The subject applications were revised to include improved access from Vandorf Sideroad, additional right in/right out access from Bayview Avenue, multiple trail access points, reduced density, and a larger and re-located community park. The revised plan was then presented again to Council and the public for review at an additional, non- statutory Public Planning Meeting held on January 30, 2023. Comments received from the public at the January 30, 2023, Public Planning Meeting were largely positive, and a summary of the comments received, and revisions made by the Applicant from both of these Public Planning meetings is included under the Public Comments section of this report. Location / Land Use The subject lands municipally known as 5 to 70 Archerhill Court are approximately 12.3 hectares (30.5 acres) in size and are located at the northwest corner of Bayview Avenue and Vandorf Sideroad. Currently, the area consists of 14 Estate Residential lots which accommodate 14 individual Estate Residential dwellings as well as a public road being Archerhill Court. The subject lands are considered self-contained as an enclave community. Surrounding Land Uses The surrounding land uses are as follows: North: Open space, environmentally protected lands and further north is a community consisting of detached dwellings. South: Vandorf Sideroad and a community of detached dwellings. East: Bayview Avenue and a community of detached dwellings. Page 4 of 72 February 21, 2023 4 of 15 Report No. PDS23-016 West: Open space, environmentally protected lands and then further west are employment area lands. Analysis Policy Context Provincial Policies: All Planning Act development applications are subject to provincial policies. The Provincial Policy Statement (PPS) provides policy direction on matters of provincial interest. These policies support the development of strong communities through the promotion of efficient land use and development patterns. The Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe is a guiding document for growth management within the Greater Golden Horseshoe (GGH) Area to 2051. The Growth Plan provides a framework which guide decisions on how land will be planned, designated, zoned and designed. The Lake Simcoe Protection Plan (LSPP) is a provincial document that provides policies which addresses aquatic life, water quality, water quantity, shorelines and natural heritage, other threats and activities (including invasive species, climate change and recreational activities) and implementation. The Oak Ridges Moraine Conservation Plan (ORMCP) provides land use and resource management planning direction on how to protect the Moraine’s ecological and hydrological features and functions. Official Plan Amendment No. 48 (OPA 48) was adopted by Council on October 22, 2003, to bring the Town of Aurora Official Plan into conformity with the ORMCP. The proposed applications are consistent with and conform to the directions of Provincial policy. The subject applications assist in achieving the Town’s goals and targets for density, population, and intensification, while also contributing to the development of a complete community with access the high-quality open spaces, parks and trails. The proposal represents an efficient and wise use of land to support a mix of housing and amenities for the community. York Region Official Plan (YROP): The subject lands are designated as Urban Area within the York Region Official Plan. The purpose of this designation is to accommodate residential uses as part of meeting Page 5 of 72 February 21, 2023 5 of 15 Report No. PDS23-016 required population and density forecasts. The subject applications conform to the York Region Official Plan. Town of Aurora Official Plan: The subject lands are designated as “Stable Neighbourhoods” in the Town of Aurora Official Plan. This designation permits ground-related residential uses with a maximum height permission of 9 metres (three storeys). Additional information regarding the heights of the proposed development is provided further in this report. Zoning By-law 6000-17, as amended: The subject lands are currently zoned as “Estate Residential (ER)” in the Town of Aurora’s Comprehensive Zoning By-law. The ER zone is characterized by larger setbacks and lot areas in a low-density neighbourhood setting. The current maximum height permission for the Estate Residential zone is 10 metres as of right. Additional information regarding the heights of the proposed development is provided further in this report. Proposed Applications Reports and Studies: Reports and studies submitted as part of a complete application were outlined in previous Report No. PDS22-083, dated June 14, 2022. Since the January 30, 2023, Public Planning Meeting, the applicant has also revised their Draft Plan to feature 138 units, which is outlined in Figure 4 of this report. All reports and studies pertaining to the subject applications remain available for public review and investigation as requested. Additionally, specific conditions of approval have been developed and included in the attached Appendix ‘A’ - Conditions of Draft Plan Approval for the applicant to satisfy prior to registration. One such condition is for the applicant to provide a Green Development Standards report prior to execution of the Subdivision Agreement to ensure the sustainable building design and development of the site, including through such measures as energy efficient appliances and home systems, electric vehicle charging, and renewable energy considerations. The applicant will have three years from the date of Draft Plan approval to satisfy the listed Conditions, with Council at its sole discretion being able to extend this approval period. Page 6 of 72 February 21, 2023 6 of 15 Report No. PDS23-016 Draft Plan of Subdivision: The Draft Plan of Subdivision proposes 138 single detached lots, a new road network, and dedicated blocks for environmental protection and a community park The applicant has revised the Draft Plan of Subdivision to accommodate a new lotting pattern inclusive of 138 new single detached lots. As shown previously, the proposal also features a road network with improved access from Vandorf Sideroad and right in/right out from Bayview Avenue, an enlarged and relocated community park, and blocks for environmental protection and open space along the east and west boundary areas. The 138 lots represents a reduction from the previously proposed 139 lots at the January 30, 2023, Public Planning Meeting, and the originally proposed 146 lots. The existing public road being Archerhill Court is intended to be replaced with a new 18.0 metre wide ‘ring road’ providing internal access for the enclave community. The park block has been relocated to front onto Vandorf Sideroad and has increased in size from the original submission by 0.32 hectares. As discussed at the January 30, 2023, Public Planning Meeting, this park will also be fenced to ensure appropriate risk management. Trail access and pedestrian mobility is also being improved through the development of local connections, including to the Holland River Valley Trail to the west of the subject area. In response to comments from the January 30, 2023, Public Planning Meeting, staff also evaluated the feasibility for an additional connection to the trail from approximately the midpoint of the subject area along the western boundary, but it was determined that the resulting tree clearing would lead to negative impacts on the forested area and natural features. There are also limitations due to grading at this location. The blocks dedicated for open space and environmental protection will be conveyed to the Town as a condition of Draft Plan approval. These blocks also incorporate the respective 10m buffer for woodlots (western block) and 30m buffer for wetlands (eastern block), as required by the LSRCA and shown in the proposed Draft Plan. In total, the open space blocks for environmental protection account for over 3 hectares of the subject lands, equating to over 25% of the total area. The following is a further breakdown of the proposed Draft Plan of Subdivision: Page 7 of 72 February 21, 2023 7 of 15 Report No. PDS23-016 Proposed Land Use Area Site Coverage Residential – 138 Single Detached lots 6.326 ha 51.3% Community Park Space 0.458 ha 3.7% Open Space Environmental Protection Blocks 3.189 ha 25.9% Reserve Blocks along Vandorf Sideroad and Bayview Avenue 0.010 ha 0.1% Internal Road Network 2.322 ha 18.8% Storm Outlet and Overland Flow 0.030 ha 0.2% Totals 12.334 ha 100% The 138 single-detached lots are proposed to contain lot sizes ranging from 11.0 metres to 18.3 metres, with an average lot depth of 32.0 metres. Zoning By-law Amendment: The Zoning By-law Amendment application with site-specific provisions and standards is required to enable the proposed higher density built form As outlined in Appendix ‘B’, the applicant proposes to rezone the subject lands from “Estate Residential” to “Detached Third Density Residential (R3)”, “Detached Fourth Density Residential (R4)”, “Environmental Protection (EP)”, and “Public Open Space (OS1)”, with site specific zoning standards and exceptions. Final zoning performance standards will be evaluated by staff in detail prior to the implementing Zoning By-law Amendment being brought forward to Council for enactment. The Town’s R3 and R4 zoning categories permit 10 and 11 metre height permissions respectively. The current Estate Residential (ER) zoning for the subject property also permits a 10 metre height maximum as of right. Once siting and architectural details are finalized by the applicant, details will be reported back to Council regarding the specific heights of the dwellings on each lot, with the applicant confirming their general intent to abide by the 9 metre maximum of the Stable Neighbourhoods designation, but also recognizing that further details will come and some potential increases may be required based on the individual conditions and the siting of each lot. Once details are known, the exact heights of the proposed Page 8 of 72 February 21, 2023 8 of 15 Report No. PDS23-016 development will be reviewed as part of Council’s future enactment of the related Zoning By-law Amendment. The following is a table to generally compare the differences between the existing Estate Residential zoning requirements with the proposed R3 and R4 zoning and site- specific standards and exceptions: Parent ER Zone Requirements Proposed R3 and R4 zoning with site specific zoning standards and Exceptions R3 Exception R4 Exception Permitted Uses Detached dwellings, second suites, home occupations Detached dwellings, second suites, home occupations Detached dwellings, second suites, home occupations Lot Area (minimum) 8,000 m2 460 m2 345 m2* Front Yard (minimum) 15 m 4.5 m* 4.5 m* Rear Yard (minimum) 22 m 7.0 m* 6.5 m* Interior Side Yard (minimum) 9 m one side 4.5 m other side 1.2 m one side 1.5 m other side 1.2 m one side 0.6 m other side Exterior Side Yard (minimum) 15 m 6 m 2.4 m* Lot Coverage (maximum) 15% 50%* 50% Page 9 of 72 February 21, 2023 9 of 15 Report No. PDS23-016 Parent ER Zone Requirements Proposed R3 and R4 zoning with site specific zoning standards and Exceptions R3 Exception R4 Exception Height (maximum) 10 m 10 m 11m Note: Asterisks (*) indicate site-specific zoning standards. As mentioned, final zoning performance standards will be evaluated by staff in detail prior to the implementing Zoning By-law Amendment being brought forward to Council for enactment. Department / Agency Comments In general, all circulated agencies are satisfied with the proposed applications and have included the necessary Conditions of Draft Plan approval to ensure the orderly and responsible development of the site The proposed applications were circulated to all internal and external agencies for review and comments. In general, all circulated agencies are satisfied with the revisions and have no further comments at this time. Any remaining technical matters can be resolved prior to the enactment of the subject Zoning By-law Amendment and prior to the execution of the subdivision agreement, with detailed conditions of approval also outlined in Appendix ‘A’ of this report. Development Engineering The sewers and watermain have capacity available for the proposed development. Storm water management is also accommodated. Draft Plan conditions addressing matters as it relates to detailed design have also been developed, for inclusion into a future Subdivision Agreement. The assumed public road known as Archerhill Court will be removed at the sole cost of the owner of the subject lands. A by-law is required to be enacted to close Archerhill Court before it is conveyed to the owner of the subject lands, with a future report to be brought back to Council. Page 10 of 72 February 21, 2023 10 of 15 Report No. PDS23-016 Operations – Parks Parks staff have no concerns with the proposal. Revisions have been made to relocate and increase the size of the park block, and trail connections have been provided. Staff reviewed the ability to provide an additional trail access along the western boundary of the site, but this is not warranted due to negative impacts resulting from tree clearing as well as grading issues. The proposed park will also be fenced to ensure appropriate risk management, and conditions of Draft Plan Approval have also been provided. Traffic Analyst The proposed applications support and encourage active transportation and will enhance connectivity of the Lake-to-Lake route by ensuring suitable connection opportunities. The appropriate conditions of Draft Plan Approval have also been developed and included in Appendix ‘A’. Central York Fire Services Central York Fire Services has no objections to the proposed applications. Draft Plan conditions addressing matters as it relates to detailed design are incorporated and will be included in a future Subdivision Agreement. Lake Simcoe Region Conservation Authority (LSRCA) The LSRCA has no further comments and advises that all comments related to functional review have been addressed for the proposed applications.

Details on the specific heights will be presented to Council as part of the enacting Zoning By-law Amendment. Advisory Committee Review No review required. Page 13 of 72 February 21, 2023 13 of 15 Report No. PDS23-016 Legal Considerations Section 34 (11) of the Planning Act states that if Council refuses the zoning by-law amendment application or fails to make a decision on it within 90 days after the receipt of the application, the applicant (or the Minister) may appeal the application to the Ontario Land Tribunal (OLT). Section 51(34) of the Planning Act states that if Council fails to make a decision on the subdivision application within 120 days after the receipt of the application, the applicant may appeal the application to the OLT. If Council approves or refuses the applications, then the applicant, Minister, or a public body or specified person (as defined in the Act) that made oral or written submissions may appeal to the OLT after receiving notice of Council’s decision. These applications were received on August 4, 2021, and therefore, the applicant may appeal to the OLT at any time. A future report and by-law will be brought to Council to stop up, close and convey Archerhill Court to the owner of the subject lands In order to remove and replace Archerhill Court with the new proposed right-of-way shown on the draft plan, Council will be required to enact a by-law to permanently close Archerhill Court, which will be presented to Council as part of a future report dealing with the proposed purchase of Archerhill Court by the applicant. A draft plan condition has been included requiring the applicant to purchase Archerhill Court prior to approval of the final plan. In accordance with the notice requirements of the Town’s Public Notice By-law, notice of the intention to pass the by-law must be given at least 14 days prior to Council’s consideration of the by-law by posting an informational sign on the side of Archerhill Court. The by-law will not take effect until the by-law is registered on title. Financial Implications All applicable fees and charges relating to this development will be collected as required by applicable legislation, agreement, or policy. The approval of the proposed development will also add to the Town’s assessment growth over the coming years. Page 14 of 72 February 21, 2023 14 of 15 Report No. PDS23-016 Communications Considerations All public meeting signage and notification requirements as per the Planning Act were met relating to the review of the subject applications. Subject to Council’s decision on the subject applications, additional Notice of Decision/Notice of Passing requirements will be met, including providing appropriate information on appeal rights to the applicant and public. Climate Change Considerations To understand and mitigate impacts of greenhouse gas emissions resulting from the application, the preparation of a Green Development Report has been included as a required draft plan condition of approval for the subject application. The proposed subdivision is to include direct trail access and opportunities for sustainable building design and energy efficiency.

Page 47 of 72 Page 48 of 72 100 John West Way Aurora, Ontario L4G 6J1 (905) 727-3123 aurora.ca Town of Aurora General Committee Report No. CMS 2 3 -0 06 Subject: Church Street School – Asset Management Prepared by: Robin McDougall, Director of Community Services Department: Community Services Date: February 21, 2023 Recommendation 1. That Report No. CMS23-006 be received; and 2. That a new capital project with total budget authority of $173,000 be approved for the refinishing and repainting of Brevik Hall, Aurora room, boardroom, gallery, and ancillary spaces in the Church St school to be funded from the facility asset management reserve; and 3. That a new capital project with total budget authority of $187,000 be approved for the refinishing and repainting of Aurora Museum & Archives and Aurora Cultural Centre administrative spaces to be funded from the facility asset management reserve. Executive Summary Church Street School was originally built in 1885 and Aurora is proud of this heritage building. The facility has had several repairs and maintenance projects over the years to help preserve its longevity and charm. The last major renovation was completed in 2008. As we near the opening of the Aurora Town Square, the use of the school will continue in coordination with the new build. Future repairs would be anticipated in the school through asset management, and a phasing of the construction project has opened a window of time to enable these repairs to be done prior to occupancy which also provides an opportunity to align the look of the old historic building with the new addition before the facility opens. Building Condition Assessment will be completed on the existing and new facility once the Aurora Town Square project is complete to determine the 10-year capital plan. Page 49 of 72 February 21, 2023 2 of 7 Report No. CMS23-006 Hardwood floor refinishing and repainting for Brevik Hall, Aurora room, boardroom, Gallery and ancillary spaces will be needed to help preserve the heritage charm. The administrative spaces for the Aurora Museum and Archives (AMA) and the Aurora Cultural Centre (ACC) need some refinishing and a few revisions to provide more functionality. Aurora Town Square construction schedule phasing has presented an opportunity to perform these asset management projects in advance of the facility opening eliminating future disruption in service. Background Church Street School has undergone a variety of capital repairs over the years, including many exterior brickwork and window repairs, most of these repairs were completed starting in 2008. In 2019, a few capital projects were approved while a few more were anticipated 2020. With the Aurora Town Square project being considered, the 2019 and 2020 projects were deferred and added to the overall project tender to be completed at the time of the construction. Some of these include LED lighting retrofit, brick repairs, door repairs, exterior signage, and minor wood floor repairs and repainting in the high traffic corridor areas. These projects will be carried out by the contractor. Other asset management items are anticipated in the near future through an upcoming Building Condition Assessment. The timing of the capital project would provide a window of time to permit these additional asset management projects to be completed prior to occupancy. This opportunity would enable the additional spaces in 22 Church Street to be updated to align with the new addition. Page 50 of 72 February 21, 2023 3 of 7 Report No. CMS23-006 Analysis Building Condition Assessment will be completed on the existing and new facility once the Aurora Town Square project is complete to determine the 10-year capital plan. In 2020, Council approved a Building Condition Assessment (BCA) study to be completed on all Town facilities. This study has just completed at the end of 2022; however, the Church Street School was not yet reviewed due to it being part of an active construction project. It is planned that once the Town Square project is complete, a BCA will be conducted on both existing and new construction to develop the 10-year plan for this facility. As such, we do not have a current BCA report for the Church Street School. However, staff anticipate additional spaces within 22 Church Street school will be captured in the BCA report to be completed in the capital plan for future repair. Staff have learned of the opportunity to be proactive and want to take advantage of the spaces being vacant, therefore, they are presenting these projects to Council for consideration. The work could be deferred until the BCA report is completed, but it would result in a disruption of service to complete the capital work and the cost would likely be higher than today’s estimate. Hardwood floor refinishing and repainting for Brevik Hall, Aurora room, boardroom, Gallery and ancillary spaces will be needed to help preserve the heritage charm. Back when the repainting and wood floor repairs were identified as priority asset management projects in 2019 and 2020, the focus of the work was on the high traffic corridor areas. The Brevik Hall, Aurora room, boardroom, Gallery and ancillary spaces were not deemed priority at that time as they had less wear and tear. However, when the spaces were emptied, the extent of repair was realized. It is anticipated through the next Building Condition Assessment (BCA), these spaces would be captured as future capital repair projects. Completing this work now versus later would limit the future disruption in service and be more cost effective as the space is empty. The cost estimate for the refinishing and repainting of these spaces is approximately $173,000 including contingency. The administrative spaces for the Aurora Museum and Archives (AMA) and the Aurora Cultural Centre (ACC) need some refinishing and a few revisions to provide more functionality. Page 51 of 72 February 21, 2023 4 of 7 Report No. CMS23-006 With the AMA and ACC staff vacating their areas during construction, it is more evident that the floor tiles and carpeting need to be replaced in both areas soon. Repainting would also be beneficial to touch up scuffs, scratches and fading over the years. Previous painting and flooring work would have been completed in approximately 2008 in these administration spaces. It is anticipated that the BCA would identify these areas for future improvements. In order to ensure the spaces are not only updated with new flooring and paint, but a few other minor revisions are also proposed to make the spaces more functional. This includes the removal of the glass partition within the Museum office area (former archive space) and the addition of drywall and cable drops to prepare an office space for the manager while maintaining the rest of the space as open concept. As for the ACC area, in consultation with the Executive Director, staff are recommending adding a wall to separate the boardroom from the existing administrative space and removing some of the old millwork, thereby, increasing functionality and usefulness of both the boardroom and ACC’s office area. Historically, the boardroom use was very limited as it shared the space with the ACC staff member. This scope would also include the need to purchase office furniture (workstations/desks) for the Town’s Cultural Services staff. The office furniture that the staff were using previously were primarily basic tables without partitions and not designed for efficient use of space. Originally, the plan was to recycle workstations from the Town Hall refresh project, however, this project has been put on hold for the last two years, thus not generating a surplus of furniture that could be reallocated to the Museum staff. Completing this work now versus later would limit the future disruption in service. The cost estimate for refinishing and revisions of these spaces is approximately $187,000 including contingency. Aurora Town Square construction schedule phasing has presented an opportunity to perform these asset management projects in advance of the facility opening eliminating future disruption in service. Initially, the Aurora Town Square construction project was to be delivered as one entire project (Library addition, square, school renovations and addition), but the General Contractor (GC) has been able to segment out the project in phases. An example was the delivery of the Library Addition in October 2022. There may be an opportunity for the Town to get into the Church Street School in advance of the full project completion or just after occupancy but before the Town and ACC move back in. This arrangement Page 52 of 72 February 21, 2023 5 of 7 Report No. CMS23-006 would be determined and planned for with the general contractor. Regardless of the timing, the opportunity has presented itself for the Town to be proactive and procure the work for these projects before opening the facility eliminating future disruption in service. Advisory Committee Review Not applicable. Legal Considerations As the Aurora Town Square project continues, the General Contractor remains responsible for and in control of the areas that still form part of the ongoing project as the constructor. Once the General Contractor completes their work and relinquishes control of the Church Street School building, the Town could undertake a separate project in that facility. However, to avoid various significant ramifications under the Occupational Health and Safety Act, R.S.O. 1990, c. O. and contractual implications, any work at the Church Street School by the Town will need to be undertaken after the General Contractor has completed that phase of the work and the Town has assumed control of the building from the GC. Financial Implications As the opportunity has presented itself for the Town to proactively complete the above noted necessary Church Street School asset management work prior to final occupancy it is recommended that two new capital projects be approved at this time as presented in Table 1. Table 1 Recommended Church Street School Asset Management Capital Project Name Description Requested Budget Authority Church Street School Hardwood Refinishing & Painting Refinishing & painting of Bravik Hall, Aurora Room, Boardroom, Gallery, and other ancillory spaces 178,000$ Church Street School Administrative space refinishing and painting Refinishing & repainting of the AMA and ACC administrative spaces.187,000$ 365,000$ Page 53 of 72 February 21, 2023 6 of 7 Report No. CMS23-006 It is recommended that both these proposed projects be fully funded from the Facility Asset Management reserve. Neither of these projects were specifically included in the Town’s recently approved 2023 ten-year capital plan, but sufficient funding availability is anticipated through included building condition assessment requirement placeholders within this plan. Communications Considerations The Town will inform residents about the information contained in this report by posting it to the Town’s website. Climate Change Considerations The recommendations from this report will increase greenhouse gas emissions by way of contractor vehicle emissions as they deliver product to site or attend site to complete the work. But this would be the case, whether this work is completed now or in the future. Through procurement guidelines, contractors will be encouraged to follow good practices for limiting greenhouse gas emissions (i.e., fuel efficient vehicles, anti-idling, etc.). Link to Strategic Plan The Church Street School asset management projects support the following Strategic Plan goals and key objectives: Supporting an exceptional quality of life for all in its accomplishment in satisfying requirements in the following key objectives within these goal statements: Invest in sustainable infrastructure Celebrating and promoting our culture Promoting service accountability, excellence, and innovation Alternative(s) to the Recommendation 1. Council may provide further direction. Conclusions Both capital requests are anticipated costs in the near future and would be funded from the Asset Management reserve whether they are completed now or in the future. With Page 54 of 72 February 21, 2023 7 of 7 Report No. CMS23-006 the opportunity to complete the work while the space is vacated, staff would recommend being proactive in mitigating the disruption in service by completing the work prior to the opening of Aurora Town Square.

That Report No. CMS23-004 be received; and 2. That Council authorize Non-Standard procurement, under section 2.7 of the procurement policy for Piggyback Purchasing, to award the supply, delivery, and installation of systems furniture to Teknion under the terms of the Vendor of Record (VOR) agreement; and 3. That Council approve the procurement as a standing offer as defined under section 5.2 Standing Offers in the Procurement Policy. Executive Summary This report summarizes the request to authorize the award of Non-Standard Procurement number 2023-28-CMS-F for the Piggyback Purchase under the terms of the Vendor of Record (VOR) arrangement held by the Province of Ontario, Ministry of Government and Consumer Services (MGCS). The existing VOR expired in 2021 and a Non-Standard Procurement agreement was in place until it expired December 31, 2022. Piggyback Procurements and procurements greater than $250,000.00 are considered Non-Standard Procurements and require Council approval A standing offer will enable the Town to manage this procurement across multiple budgets Page 56 of 72 February 21, 2023 2 of 6 Report No. CMS23-004 Background The existing VOR expired in 2021 and a Non-Standard Procurement agreement was in place until it expired December 31, 2022. The Town has participated in this program and had an agreement with Teknion through the Vendor of Record (VOR) since August 2015. The previous VOR expired in 2021. To meet immediate recurring business requirements, a Non-Standard Procurement agreement was established while the Ministry of Government and Consumer Services (MGCS) was issuing and evaluating their open competition and this interim agreement expired December 31, 2022. The MGCS’s Vendor of Record (VOR) for furniture has provided the opportunity for the Town to make use of extensive discounts that have been applied to various projects over the last five (5) years. The new Furniture VOR Tender #13685 agreement was effective as of March 1, 2022 and is set to expire January 31, 2024. The agreement could potentially be extended to January 31, 2026, as MGCS has the sole discretion to exercise two extension options which are available at up-to one-year each. The agreement offers different groups of chairs (general and specialty) and furniture (system and free standing) which will result in similar prior cost savings due to the MGCS’s competitive bid process. This is why the Town has piggybacked on this process in the past. Town has primarily used Teknion as our standard for various reasons including a committed plan to compatibility of their product and compatible pieces across product lines, particularly the Leverage line that the Town utilizes. In addition, Teknion products are known for their quality, durability, environmentally sustainable practices as well as offering an excellent warranty and integration of replacement parts. Analysis Piggyback Procurements and procurements greater than $250,000.00 are considered Non-Standard Procurements and shall comply with the reporting and approval requirements. The MGCS has several Vendor of Record (VOR) arrangements as a result of their open competition procurement processes that allow other government agencies to take advantage of the discount pricing structures offered to the province. One of these arrangements is for the acquisition of the supply, delivery, and installation of office furniture, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the MGCS RFB Page 57 of 72 February 21, 2023 3 of 6 Report No. CMS23-004 Tender 13685. Entering into this agreement will allow the Town to purchase systems furniture taking full advantage of the extensive discounts offered through the provincial VOR program. The manufacturer offers a substantial discount between 66% to 77% depending on the product group, off their list price structure, with an additional 1% discount for large orders over $25,000 which is based on the Vendor of Record (VOR) pricing. Section 2.7 of the Procurement Policy permits Piggyback Purchasing. This enables the Town to piggyback on an existing procurement by accepting the results of a competitive Procurement process of another government agency or public authority where the provisions of the original Solicitation Document allow for such a piggyback, or when the Supplier is willing to do so. These types of purchases are considered non- standard procurements and require Council approval if the total projected spending will exceed $250,000. All purchases are subject to sufficient budget availability. Without the VOR program, this would result in individual tenders for each project and introduction of various manufactures and product lines. Adding different furniture systems would complicate the design of new workspaces, cause inefficiencies with misaligned product, limit the ability to reuse existing furnishings and require management of multiple service providers. Piggybacking on the MGCS’s contract from their open competition process will enable the town to continue with its existing systems furniture standard providing consistency throughout all Town facilities, creating equality among workspaces, enabling significant cost savings, and reducing administrative burden for these furniture procurements. A standing offer will enable the Town to manage this procurement across multiple budgets Office furnishings will be required to accommodate growth within the Town as there are major projects that will require systems furniture, including the Aurora Town Square project and the Stronach Aurora Recreation Complex Gymnasium Addition. This will also include on-going changes within various facilities and departments throughout the corporation. Depending on needs and new project requirements, the dollar value, size and complexity of each order will vary. Establishing a Standing Offer, as outlined in section 5.2 of the Procurement Policy, will establish the procurement with the vendor but does not set up the contractual commitment until a purchase order is issued. Per the Procurement Policy this standing offer will fix the pricing (discount off list price) for the duration of the Standing Offer. Page 58 of 72 February 21, 2023 4 of 6 Report No. CMS23-004 Typically, a standing offer can be issued through an open competition managed by the Town. In this case, the contract used for the piggyback was run through an open competition by MGCS resulting in it being a non-standard procurement and requiring Council approval to establish the standing offer. The Town could elect not to enter the VOR program which would result in individual tenders for each project and introduction of various manufactures and product lines, increased cost, and longer procurement process Funding associated with this agreement has already been approved through the budget process or capital project reports. This includes the Aurora Town Square, Stronach Aurora Recreation Complex Gymnasium Addition, and on-going changes within various facilities and departments throughout the corporation. In using the standing offer, each project will order against the procurement to create the purchase order (the commitment to purchase). Advisory Committee Review None Legal Considerations Upon authorization of the procurement by Council, Town staff will have authority to negotiate, finalize and enter into an agreement, pursuant to the Town of Aurora Procurement Policy. The agreement will be reviewed by Legal Services. Financial Implications The Town’s standard office furniture line is Teknion. They are a Canadian made system with many benefits over products made outside of Canada. This includes, local delivery and installation services, no additional costs due to long haul delivery or added costs due to exchange rates or logistical coordination. Under the terms of the proposed vendor of record agreement with Teknion, the Town may receive substantial price discounts of up to 77 percent of list price. It is very likely that the town would be unable to appreciate savings to this degree through any other procurement arrangement. The product line with Teknion also provides a streamlined space planning process without time consuming procurement processes for each individual project. Using one Page 59 of 72 February 21, 2023 5 of 6 Report No. CMS23-004 manufacturer and dealer base reduces the time spent space planning, quoting, installing, and reconfiguring parts. Communications Considerations The Town will inform residents of the information contained in this report by posting the report to the Town’s website. Climate Change Considerations The recommendations from this report will decrease greenhouse gas emissions as Teknion is a local supplier vs other that would require delivery from another provinces or countries. Link to Strategic Plan Promoting service accountability, excellence, and innovation. We will continue to explore opportunities to further strengthen partnerships with neighbouring municipalities and continue to pursue partnerships/initiatives to drive efficiency and potential cost savings. Alternative(s) to the Recommendation 1. The Town could elect to not enter the VOR program which would result in individual tenders for each project and introduction of various manufactures and product lines, increased cost, and longer procurement process. Conclusions It is therefore recommended, based on the above noted information, that a Non- Standard Procurement be authorized through the MGCS VOR agreement for the supply, delivery, and installation of system furniture and within approval budgets.
