These funds were originally in the JOC project and were deleted from the final project budget. The JOC site provides staff with an economical option to have a hot site ready in the event of an emergency at Town Hall. Building a centre designated exclusively for this purpose is not economical. We made the investment already to build this centre and can leverage the existing infrastructure as it has adequate fibre optics Wide Area Network connectivity between the two sites (Town Hall and the JOC), as well a cooling systems, a generator and adequate space to be ready to serve this purpose. PERFORMANCE/ACTIVITY IMPACTS: The equipment will also be used to resolve our network backup capacity issue (currently our data runtime is exceeding our available after hours window due to the speed of the tape writing devices). Using new equipment, we move away from tape storage at an off site facility and bring our disaster recovery system internal to our network. Running over the network and to the JOC systems will speed up the backup process. EXPLANATION/HIGHLIGHTS Funding for this project will provide the necessary equipment for the core layer (servers/blades/SAN/databases) and distribution (inter-connectivity and routing), and network infrastructure (switches,connectors and routers). All of this equipment is included in this request. The Growth and New funding contribution will provide the equipment necessary to prepare for the transfer of the EOC from the Seniors Centre to the 1st floor JOC space. Project was included in the 2017 year in the 2016 Ten year Capital Investment Plan.

PERFORMANCE/ACTIVITY IMPACTS: Improve communications. EXPLANATION/HIGHLIGHTS Currently, we do not own radios for use in the event of an emergency. We have a few truck mounted units in winter vehicles but most of the fleet rely solely on cell phones. The use of two way radios enables broader communication to the entire network that would be able to facilitate faster response times in case we have an emergency. Purchase of these radios is a proactive approach to prepare the Town in the event of a town wide emergency. Class D estimate. Project was not included in the 2015 Ten Year Capital Investment Plan.

PERFORMANCE/ACTIVITY IMPACTS: To comply with municipal landscape standards. To comply with residential subdivision agreement requirements. EXPLANATION/HIGHLIGHTS In keeping with the Town's landscape standards, developers are required to plant street trees in all new development areas. The applicable development agreement provides for an option for the subdivision developers to plant street trees as part of their obligation or alternatively to pay the Town for the full value of the tree plantings costs including the ongoing maintenance and warranty costs. There are advantages to both the Town and the developers under this arrangement, the developer benefits by releasing themselves from long term warranty periods and municipal acceptance periods where their securities are held by the Town for several years. The Town benefits by having the cash on hand to plant trees as required at a time of our choosing. In addition, we have greater control of the site preparation and plant material selection process which has proven to be advantageous in the past. Fees charged to the developers are all inclusive of all costs associated with materials, labour, administration, maintenance and warranty and these fees are collected prior to execution of the development agreement. The following development areas are proposed for planting in 2017: Brookfield - 481 trees Metrus (DG Group) 174 trees Shimvest 435 trees Casing (Treasure Hill) 162 trees The trees will be planted by a qualified contractor following issuance and award by Council of a formal Tender process.

PERFORMANCE/ACTIVITY IMPACTS: Improve public safety. Promote connectivity and promote alternative modes of transportation. Determine most efficient and safest method of road crossing EXPLANATION/HIGHLIGHTS The Trails Master Plan identifies a grade separated crossing as a primary crossing of Wellington Street East, approximately 75 meters east of John West Way, This crossing is a major crossing for the Tim Jones Trail that is considered a higher priority in the opinion of staff due to to the number of trail users and the high volume of traffic on Wellington Street. Currently there is trail signage directing users to cross Wellington Street at the controlled intersection of John West Way and Wellington Street East however many trail users continue to cross Wellington St contrary to the directional signage. This situation poses a certain risk to trail users and thus the Master Plan recommendation to upgrade the crossing. Existing grades in this location are not conducive to either an underpass or over pass however staff are recommending that the matter be dealt with in two phases , Phase 1 shall consist of a review of the existing conditions and feasibility of an appropriate road crossing and to provide options, recommendations and cost estimates for the safest and most efficient method of crossing Wellington Street. Phase 2 would consist of potential detailed design and implementation of the crossing project which would be included in the 2018 capital budget for Council's consideration. Project was included in the 2017 year in the 2015 Ten Year Capital Investment Plan.

The Yonge Street core area is a significant feature of the Promenade area and supports an important commercial and retail community. The street parking plan on Yonge Street in the downtown core will be implemented as a pilot project to investigate the feasibility of on-street parking and pop-out patios at certain locations along Yonge Street from Wellington Street to Kennedy Street. LINK TO STRATEGIC PLAN: Supporting an exceptional quality of life for all, Objective 2: Invest in sustainable infrastructure - maintain and expand infrastructure. NOT APPROVED - PROJECT REFERRED BACK TO STAFF FOR MORE INFORMATION PERFORMANCE/ACTIVITY IMPACTS: The Yonge Street core area is a significant feature of the Promenade area and supports an important commercial and retail community. It is believed that the investment in this pilot project could allow for at least 10 years of use resulting in a reasonable return on investment and economic benefit to the Downtown core. Class "D" estimate EXPLANATION/HIGHLIGHTS Description of the concept plan and proposed "pop-out" patio locations: there will be 2 types of patios: - one will be an extension in front of restaurants with tables and chairs, where food will be served. - the other type will be a "by-pass", where benches will be provided for pedestrians to use. - there will be 9 pop-out patio locations on both sides of Yonge Street from Wellington Street to Church Street: 5 on the east side of Yonge Street and 4 on the west side. - the patios bump out features will be designed to allow for modular construction and assembly thereby making seasonal installation and dismantling relatively easy and efficient. - the patio elements will be constructed to allow for easy transport on trucks and compact storage which will be accommodated at one of the Town's properties. This approach should allow for many years of use. - the estimated cost for the "patio area" type is $20,000 and $12,000 for the "pass-by" type. A budget of $200,000 is requested for this project. - Town and York Region staff will conduct traffic surveys prior and during the implementation of the parking plan to assess and evaluate both locally and as it influences regional commuter behaviours.

NOT APPROVED - PROJECT REFERRED BACK TO STAFF FOR FURTHER INFORMATION PERFORMANCE/ACTIVITY IMPACTS: Provision of sports field facility to meet additional growth related needs. Increase in available hours for permitted sports field user groups. Maximize available and currently under utilized public lands through a joint partnership with a School Board. Demonstrates fiscal responsibility and sound business management between two publicly funded organizations. Reduction in duplication of facilities. EXPLANATION/HIGHLIGHTS The Parks and Recreation Master Plan recommends that additional soccer fields are required in order to meet the needs of Aurora's sports user groups growth related needs. Staff have identified a potential site for an additional full sized regulation soccer field facility on the existing Cardinal Carter Secondary School site. Staff have had several informal discussions with the YRCDSB officials in this regard and the Board has expressed an interest in further discussions in working toward a joint partnership arrangement with the Town. This arrangement would be similar to the current partnership that resulted in the construction and operation of the multi-purpose sports field at St Maximillian Kolbe Catholic High School . Cardinal Carter is an ideal location to accommodate an illuminated new sports field as it is not directly adjacent to existing residential properties. The site is large enough to accommodate a major facility and sufficient parking is available to support the facility. Currently, Cardinal Carter's natural turf grass sports field is not programmed or permitted to any Aurora based sports user groups due to frequently deteriorated field conditions and associated player safety concerns. Converting this facility to an artificial turf playing surface would be considered a win for the community on all fronts by virtue of the fact that an under utilized and poor condition facility would be transformed to a highly used facility for the benefit of both the School Board and the Town without the need to acquire additional land. Staff suggest that this project be approved in principal subject to the YRCDSB entering into a shared use construction and operating agreement with the Town wherein the capital /operating costs and of the ongoing operating terms of use are identified and agreed to by both parties. It is estimated that the facility will cost in the range of $2,000,000.00 to be split equally with YRCDSB. Project was not included in the 2015 Ten Year Capital Investment Plan.

These funds were originally in the JOC project and were deleted from the final project budget. The JOC site provides staff with an economical option to have a hot site ready in the event of an emergency at Town Hall. Building a centre designated exclusively for this purpose is not economical. We made the investment already to build this centre and can leverage the existing infrastructure as it has adequate fibre optics Wide Area Network connectivity between the two sites (Town Hall and the JOC), as well a cooling systems, a generator and adequate space to be ready to serve this purpose. PERFORMANCE/ACTIVITY IMPACTS: The equipment will also be used to resolve our network backup capacity issue (currently our data runtime is exceeding our available after hours window due to the speed of the tape writing devices). Using new equipment, we move away from tape storage at an off site facility and bring our disaster recovery system internal to our network. Running over the network and to the JOC systems will speed up the backup process. EXPLANATION/HIGHLIGHTS Funding for this project will provide the necessary equipment for the core layer (servers/blades/SAN/databases) and distribution (inter-connectivity and routing), and network infrastructure (switches,connectors and routers). All of this equipment is included in this request. The Growth and New funding contribution will provide the equipment necessary to prepare for the transfer of the EOC from the Seniors Centre to the 1st floor JOC space.

PERFORMANCE/ACTIVITY IMPACTS: To comply with municipal landscape standards. To comply with residential subdivision agreement requirements. EXPLANATION/HIGHLIGHTS In keeping with the Town's landscape standards, developers are required to plant street trees in all new development areas. The applicable development agreement provides for an option for the subdivision developers to plant street trees as part of their obligation or alternatively to pay the Town for the full value of the tree plantings costs including the ongoing maintenance and warranty costs. There are advantages to both the Town and the developers under this arrangement, the developer benefits by releasing themselves from long term warranty periods and municipal acceptance periods where their securities are held by the Town for several years. The Town benefits by having the cash on hand to plant trees as required at a time of our choosing. In addition, we have greater control of the site preparation and plant material selection process which has proven to be advantageous in the past. Fees charged to the developers are all inclusive of all costs associated with materials, labour, administration, maintenance and warranty and these fees are collected prior to execution of the development agreement. The following development areas are proposed for planting in 2017: Brookfield - 481 trees Metrus (DG Group) 174 trees Shimvest 435 trees Casing (Treasure Hill) 162 trees The trees will be planted by a qualified contractor following issuance and award by Council of a formal Tender process.

PERFORMANCE/ACTIVITY IMPACTS: Improve public safety. Promote connectivity and promote alternative modes of transportation. Determine most efficient and safest method of road crossing EXPLANATION/HIGHLIGHTS The Trails Master Plan identifies a grade separated crossing as a primary crossing of Wellington Street East, approximately 75 meters east of John West Way, This crossing is a major crossing for the Tim Jones Trail that is considered a higher priority in the opinion of staff due to to the number of trail users and the high volume of traffic on Wellington Street. Currently there is trail signage directing users to cross Wellington Street at the controlled intersection of John West Way and Wellington Street East however many trail users continue to cross Wellington St contrary to the directional signage. This situation poses a certain risk to trail users and thus the Master Plan recommendation to upgrade the crossing. Existing grades in this location are not conducive to either an underpass or over pass however staff are recommending that the matter be dealt with in two phases , Phase 1 shall consist of a review of the existing conditions and feasibility of an appropriate road crossing and to provide options, recommendations and cost estimates for the safest and most efficient method of crossing Wellington Street. Phase 2 would consist of potential detailed design and implementation of the crossing project which would be included in the 2018 capital budget for Council's consideration.

Prescribed forms for inspection requests that are accessed and used by outside clients will ensure greater accuracy of information. This will also alleviate miscommunication or misunderstanding as to the details of the inspection request. On-line complaint submission will be instantly viewed by staff. Project was not included in the 2015 Ten Year Capital Investment Plan.

APPROVED PENDING A FURTHER REPORT TO COUNCIL PERFORMANCE/ACTIVITY IMPACTS: To develop a new additional park in the 2C development area. To improve and enhance a natural habitat area. To increase the diversity and quality of a provincially significant wetland area for the benefit of a host of migratory birds and various other flora and fauna. EXPLANATION/HIGHLIGHTS The community wildlife park has been in the planning and development stages for a number of years. The conceptual design was presented to Council by Aurora resident and wildlife specialist David Tomlinson at the Council meeting on January 28, 2008. Further to Council's adoption of the Wildlife Park Concept Plan, staff have continued to work to evolve the plan with the most recent work involving a lengthy hydrogeologic study which occurred over a 12 month period. The purpose of the study was to verify the availability of both surface and ground water in the vicinity of the park required to maintain and support the functionality of the proposed aquatic features contemplated in the Tomlinson concept plan. The completed study determined that water is available in sufficient quantities to facilitate the overall function of the park aquatic features and proposed habitat areas. Next steps, involve the refinement of a detailed final design of the wildlife park, Council and stakeholder approvals. Current estimates to build the wildlife park as contemplated in the conceptual design are approaching five million dollars however the actual cost estimates will be further refined through the upcoming detailed design phase . In addition to the detailed design work , part of the work will also be geared toward developing the ongoing management requirements for the park and the annual financial impacts associated with managing the wildlifepark . Staff will present a phased in construction plan. Project was included in the 2017 year in the 2015 Ten year Capital Investment Plan.

The report asked that the request be deferred to the 2017 Capital Budget Process. NOT APPROVED - REFERRED BACK TO STAFF FOR MORE INFORMATION PERFORMANCE/ACTIVITY IMPACTS: The benefit of this proposed building would be that it would provide change room and shower facilities particularly for out of Town players. In addition, this could result in an increase in permitted usage. EXPLANATION/HIGHLIGHTS The Aurora Youth Soccer Club is seeking funding to construct a new club house at Sheppard's Bush. The building would include a kitchen, bathrooms, 4 change rooms and meeting rooms. The building would be be approximately 3700 square feet in size. The land on which the club house would be built is part of the Ontario Heritage Trust Lands and is leased by the Town. The Lake Simcoe Conservation Authority has management jurisdiction over portions of the lands. The proposed building would be situated within a hill on the property and both authorities will permit the project. In addition, Parks and Recreation do not object to the placement of the proposed building. Staff have prepared a Class D estimate for this project, based on the information provided by the AYSC. Project was not included in the 2015 Ten year Capital Investment Plan.

The Yonge Street core area is a significant feature of the Promenade area and supports an important commercial and retail community. The street parking plan on Yonge Street in the downtown core will be implemented as a pilot project to investigate the feasibility of on-street parking and pop-out patios at certain locations along Yonge Street from Wellington Street to Kennedy Street. LINK TO STRATEGIC PLAN: Supporting an exceptional quality of life for all, Objective 2: Invest in sustainable infrastructure - maintain and expand infrastructure. NOT APPROVED - PROJECT REFERRED BACK TO STAFF FOR MORE INFORMATION PERFORMANCE/ACTIVITY IMPACTS: The Yonge Street core area is a significant feature of the Promenade area and supports an important commercial and retail community. It is believed that the investment in this pilot project could allow for at least 10 years of use resulting in a reasonable return on investment and economic benefit to the Downtown core. Class "D" estimate EXPLANATION/HIGHLIGHTS Description of the concept plan and proposed "pop-out" patio locations: there will be 2 types of patios: - one will be an extension in front of restaurants with tables and chairs, where food will be served. - the other type will be a "by-pass", where benches will be provided for pedestrians to use. - there will be 9 pop-out patio locations on both sides of Yonge Street from Wellington Street to Church Street: 5 on the east side of Yonge Street and 4 on the west side. - the patios bump out features will be designed to allow for modular construction and assembly thereby making seasonal installation and dismantling relatively easy and efficient. - the patio elements will be constructed to allow for easy transport on trucks and compact storage which will be accommodated at one of the Town's properties. This approach should allow for many years of use. - the estimated cost for the "patio area" type is $20,000 and $12,000 for the "pass-by" type. A budget of $200,000 is requested for this project. - Town and York Region staff will conduct traffic surveys prior and during the implementation of the parking plan to assess and evaluate both locally and as it influences regional commuter behaviours. Project was not included in the 2015 Ten Year Capital Investment Plan.

NOT APPROVED - PROJECT REFERRED BACK TO STAFF FOR FURTHER INFORMATION PERFORMANCE/ACTIVITY IMPACTS: Provision of sports field facility to meet additional growth related needs. Increase in available hours for permitted sports field user groups. Maximize available and currently under utilized public lands through a joint partnership with a School Board. Demonstrates fiscal responsibility and sound business management between two publicly funded organizations. Reduction in duplication of facilities. EXPLANATION/HIGHLIGHTS The Parks and Recreation Master Plan recommends that additional soccer fields are required in order to meet the needs of Aurora's sports user groups growth related needs. Staff have identified a potential site for an additional full sized regulation soccer field facility on the existing Cardinal Carter Secondary School site. Staff have had several informal discussions with the YRCDSB officials in this regard and the Board has expressed an interest in further discussions in working toward a joint partnership arrangement with the Town. This arrangement would be similar to the current partnership that resulted in the construction and operation of the multi-purpose sports field at St Maximillian Kolbe Catholic High School . Cardinal Carter is an ideal location to accommodate an illuminated new sports field as it is not directly adjacent to existing residential properties. The site is large enough to accommodate a major facility and sufficient parking is available to support the facility. Currently, Cardinal Carter's natural turf grass sports field is not programmed or permitted to any Aurora based sports user groups due to frequently deteriorated field conditions and associated player safety concerns. Converting this facility to an artificial turf playing surface would be considered a win for the community on all fronts by virtue of the fact that an under utilized and poor condition facility would be transformed to a highly used facility for the benefit of both the School Board and the Town without the need to acquire additional land. Staff suggest that this project be approved in principal subject to the YRCDSB entering into a shared use construction and operating agreement with the Town wherein the capital /operating costs and of the ongoing operating terms of use are identified and agreed to by both parties. It is estimated that the facility will cost in the range of $2,000,000.00 to be split equally with YRCDSB. Project was not included in the 2015 Ten Year Capital Investment Plan.
