Description
TARGET START DATE AND END DATE: Use format Q4 2017 - Q1 2018
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
Provide a brief overview of the project and include the key goals, objectives and performance measures.
To implement an electronic Human Resources Information System (HRIS)/Payroll and Time and attendance system in order to
reduce and/or eliminate inefficiencies that exist with the present manual process.
LINK TO STRATEGIC PLAN : Guiding Principles - Transition to an electronic HRIS contributes to achieving the Strategic Plan guiding
principle of "Progressive corporate excellence and continuous improvement". It also strengthens the organization's objectives of
financial accountability and transparency by ensuring accurate, timely reporting of time and attendance, improved reporting
capabilities, and the ability of the organization to ensuring scheduling and management of attendance and salary budgets is
efficient, appropriate and effective.
PROJECT JUSTIFICATION/CAPITAL SERVICE LEVEL IMPACT:
Provide the reasons the project should be approved and what will be the impact of the project to service levels.
A new system will significantly improve processes. Current systems require significant manual tracking and duplicate entry in order to process
payroll, and has limitations for reporting and analysis. The goal is to have a system that facilitates four key objectives: scheduling and management of
attendance through an electronic system, eliminating dependencies on paper and manual processes, pay processing by integrating payroll codes
(and accounting requirements), with schedules, and time card records (electronic), controlled through electronic approvals and control processes.
This will improve accountability throughout the organization with respect to scheduling and attendance management, and reduce the possibility of
errors and corrections; to become the Human Resources Information System, replacing manual tracking and ad hoc tracking (in other systems),
resulting in comprehensive, accurate employee records. This will significantly improve the ability of the organization to ensure accurate and timely
processing of employment changes, report on key performance indicators, and facilitate employee and manager "self-serve" functionality; a system
that integrates payroll, scheduling and attendance, and HR information will dramatically improve the organizations ability to report on key metrics,
critically analyze work force management practices and identify areas of improvement.
PROJECT BENEFITS:
Explain the benefits of the project which could include Citizen/Client, compliance, financial, internal, learning & growth or utility benefits.
The ability to monitor and report more accurately on payroll and attendance matters will strengthen the organization's ability to ensure fiscal
responsibility with respect to wages spent in delivering services. Improves the organization's ability to ensure accuracy with respect to entitlements
related to sick time, vacation, benefits etc.; Electronic management of scheduling, time card and payroll processes will result in significant
efficiencies; This will help reduce the Town's liability with respect to incorrect or missed pay to employees; The ability to provide metrics with respect
to time and attendance, health and safety, performance and wages supports the CAO's efforts with respect to Performance Measurement.
IMPACT TO THE ORGANIZATION IF THE PROJECT WAS NOT APPROVED:
Please provide an explanation of what the outcomes would be if the project was not approved.
Continue the current manual processes and systems for managing scheduling, time cards, payroll and HR Information. The current process is
cumbersome, complex, with significant opportunity for error or omission. The ability to produce meaningful reports and data for analysis is limited.
Staff are working through these challenges, but time spent on these activities removes staff from other responsibilities.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
Provide a brief overview of the project and include the key goals, objectives and performance measures.
To undertake the annual replacement cycle purchases of IT equipment for the Town of Aurora. Funding for this initiative is required
annually.
PROJECT JUSTIFICATION/CAPITAL SERVICE LEVEL IMPACT:
Provide the reasons the project should be approved and what will be the impact of the project to service levels.
In order to maintain an acceptable fleet of computer equipment servicing the needs and requirements of the Town business,
the evergreening of this equipment is necessary.
In terms of desktop/laptop replacements we have 44 end user devices and monitors to be rolled out in 2018. We have
approximately 18 servers that will be end of life from a software and hardware perspective as of July 2019. The plan reflects
all of the desktops replacements and half of the servers to be completed in 2018. Leaving the other half of the servers for
2019.
PROJECT BENEFITS:
Explain the benefits of the project which could include Citizen/Client, compliance, financial, internal, learning & growth or utility benefits.
In an effort to streamline costs and to help reduce the environmental impact, the desktop and laptop evergreening cycle changed to seven years in
2013. Server replacement schedules reflect on average a ten year cycle. Replacement cycle changes, have resulted in an uneven expenditure over
the next several years. Base on current IT inventories there is equipment that will be targeted for replacement in 2018. This amount will allow for the
replacement of those identified computers, laptops and servers/network infrastructure elements critical to our ongoing business operations.
IMPACT TO THE ORGANIZATION IF THE PROJECT WAS NOT APPROVED:
Please provide an explanation of what the outcomes would be if the project was not approved.
If this project isn't approved we will be delaying the work and piling it all on for completion next year before July 2019.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
Provide a brief overview of the project and include the key goals, objectives and performance measures.
The Town's current suite of core financial system tools will be replaced with a single integrated financial system that has: 1.
an open data structure, 2. a wholly integrated "procurement to payment" functionality, 3. an integrated budget & general
ledger system, 4. contract and project management capabilities, 5. has easy, intuitive and highly customizable reporting
capability, and 6. is properly sized and capable for our growing organization. The first phase of this large undertaking will
consist of staff defining the comprehensive specifications for the new system and its RFP development. As a key component
of this phase, staff will engage a financial systems specialist project manager consultant to assist in the development of the
town's business needs & specifications as well as its tender preparation/evaluation.
PROJECT JUSTIFICATION/CAPITAL SERVICE LEVEL IMPACT:
Provide the reasons the project should be approved and what will be the impact of the project to service levels.
The present suite of core financial system tools were acquired by the Town as stand alone components as the need for each tool
arose making the integration of these tools difficult. A rapidly growing demand for town services and an increasing complexity in
financial reporting requirements has progressively stretched the limits of the Town's present financial systems. Staff have
undertaken multiple initiatives in an effort to optimize its existing financial systems; however, these systems have now reached a
state where they are unable to meet the town's requirements in an effective or efficient manner. After considerable effort to maximize
the value from its existing financial systems, staff have now concluded that a new fully integrated financial system is necessary in
order to meet its current and future requirements. If a new financial system is not implemented or is delayed, the town's current
financial system framework's ability to meet staff's growing requirements will continue to deteriorate.
PROJECT BENEFITS:
Explain the benefits of the project which could include Citizen/Client, compliance, financial, internal, learning & growth or utility benefits.
The proposed fully integrated financial system would address the growing inability of the Town's collective current suite of
financial systems to meet its rapidly expanding and increasingly more complex financial requirements. This new financial
system would also allow the Town to achieve material process efficiencies and offer enhanced services to both external and
internal stakeholders.
IMPACT TO THE ORGANIZATION IF THE PROJECT WAS NOT APPROVED:
Please provide an explanation of what the outcomes would be if the project was not approved.
If a new financial system is not implemented or is delayed, the town's current collective financial system framework's ability
to meet staff's growing requirements will continue to deteriorate and the Town will be unable to achieve any of the noted
process efficiencies or enhanced stakeholder services noted above.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
Provide a brief overview of the project and include the key goals, objectives and performance measures.
This Roads Department dump truck has been in service since 2007. It is used for plowing/sanding/salting the roads in winter,
and
material hauling the other three season of the year. Due to the adverse conditions it performs in through the winter it is
susceptible
to above average corrosion on the frame and under carriage components. The vehicle is also experiencing increased driveline
related repairs which are beginning to cost more than the average maintenance costs for a truck of this size.
PROJECT JUSTIFICATION/CAPITAL SERVICE LEVEL IMPACT:
Provide the reasons the project should be approved and what will be the impact of the project to service levels.
As part of the fleet capital plan, this truck is due for replacement as it will require an increase in maintenance costs and
down time if
we continue to age the fleet. Downtime and unreliability are not desirable in times of need through the winter months when
quick
response to snow clearing on our roads is required.
PROJECT BENEFITS:
Explain the benefits of the project which could include Citizen/Client, compliance, financial, internal, learning & growth or utility benefits.
Increased staff productivity, less maintenance and downtime, lower operating costs.
IMPACT TO THE ORGANIZATION IF THE PROJECT WAS NOT APPROVED:
Please provide an explanation of what the outcomes would be if the project was not approved.
Without replacement, this aging truck will require more repair investment, will consume more fuel than a comparable current
model, and be susceptible to increased downtime due to unforeseen mechanical failures.

73198 Field Renovation Norm Weller Park
Parks, Recreation & Cultural Services
Final Approved Budget 2018
Description
TARGET START DATE AND END DATE: Use format Q4 2017 - Q1 2018
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
Provide a brief overview of the project and include the key goals, objectives and performance measures.
To make improvements to Norm Weller Soccer Field by upgrading the drainage and adding sports field lighting converting this
fields designation from Class "B" to a Class "A" meeting demands of the AYSC. Improvements to the field would provide safe
playing conditions to users and ensure the facility is available for all groups during the playing season.
PROJECT JUSTIFICATION/CAPITAL SERVICE LEVEL IMPACT:
Provide the reasons the project should be approved and what will be the impact of the project to service levels.
Drainage and sports light systems were not included during the 1990's when the park was originally constructed. This field is in very
good health and a desirable location due to its playing surface. Depending on the amount of rain received, this field can be out of
commission for two to three days, which results not only in lost revenue but also an inability to provide sufficient playing facilities for
the user groups as the demand for these types of fields are high.
The field is located between 2 schools and is positioned north/south. Placement of sports lights would be on the east and west
sides of the field and would have little to no effect on the residential houses to the south as light would be cast towards schools on
either side of the field. This project has been identified in the 10 year Capital Plan and soccer fields of this size are also identified as
being in shortage in the Parks and Recreation Master Plan, so maximizing the use of this field is necessary.
PROJECT BENEFITS:
Explain the benefits of the project which could include Citizen/Client, compliance, financial, internal, learning & growth or utility benefits.
Soccer enrollment has increased significantly over the years and the need for Class A facilities have grown. Lighting the field
would allow for extended play into the evenings and during spring and fall when daylight hours are shorter. Revenues would
also be increased as a result of the renovation.
IMPACT TO THE ORGANIZATION IF THE PROJECT WAS NOT APPROVED:
Please provide an explanation of what the outcomes would be if the project was not approved.
Continued inability to provide the user groups with required amenities for use, which could be compounded by the potential
loss of the Magna lands in the future.

To replace an aging playground structure in Hamilton Park and increase safety and usability for residents.
PROJECT JUSTIFICATION/CAPITAL SERVICE LEVEL IMPACT:
Provide the reasons the project should be approved and what will be the impact of the project to service levels.
Hamilton Park has been in service since the mid 1990's. While the playground is functional, it is outdated and unattractive to
the neighborhood children. There are some significant wear patterns to the decking/platforms that have been identified during
monthly playground inspections in the past year. Two of the three spring toys have been removed as they posed safety
concerns. This playground will be replaced with a more functional, practical structure inclusive of some of the latest and
desirable features on the market, so children can enjoy the amenity to is fullest. The fall protection surfacing will also be

Final Approved Budget 2018
Description
TARGET START DATE AND END DATE: Use format Q4 2017 - Q1 2018
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
Provide a brief overview of the project and include the key goals, objectives and performance measures.
To replace an aging playground structure at Copland Park increasing safety and usability for residents and neighborhood
children.
PROJECT JUSTIFICATION/CAPITAL SERVICE LEVEL IMPACT:
Provide the reasons the project should be approved and what will be the impact of the project to service levels.
Copland Park playground was installed in 1998 and is extremely well used by neighbouring residents and day care groups that
operate out of a facility adjacent to the park.
The structure is showing its age significantly through wear patterns on the decks/ platforms and degradation of the plastics on
slides/molded plastic features due to UV and cold. These deficiencies have been identified by our certified playground inspectors
as part of the monthly inspections of the equipment and were also highlighted within an independent audit undertaken in 2016.
While this playground replacement was reflected in the 10 Year Capital Plan, it was not due for replacement till 2020. Due to its
condition assessment it has been moved forward in the budget to 2018 with the strong recommendation it be replaced. Drainage
within the playground needs to be increased as it was not sufficient when the playground was originally installed, as the park as a
whole is constructed on an active water detention area.
PROJECT BENEFITS:
Explain the benefits of the project which could include Citizen/Client, compliance, financial, internal, learning & growth or utility benefits.
By replacing the aging structure, children in the surrounding area will have an inviting space to play that will keep them active
and engaged with their peers. Risks will be significantly lowered as the structure will be built as per the latest CSA
standards, therefore the Town will help mitigate the associated hazards and increased costs incurred to keep aging
infrastructure in a safe state for the public.
IMPACT TO THE ORGANIZATION IF THE PROJECT WAS NOT APPROVED:
Please provide an explanation of what the outcomes would be if the project was not approved.
The Corporation could be liable as the asset ages and safety becomes further compromised.

Description
TARGET START DATE AND END DATE: Use format Q4 2017 - Q1 2018
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
Provide a brief overview of the project and include the key goals, objectives and performance measures.
To remove unmanageable vegetation in traffic circles on Mavrinac Blvd - continuation from 2017 project.
PROJECT JUSTIFICATION/CAPITAL SERVICE LEVEL IMPACT:
Provide the reasons the project should be approved and what will be the impact of the project to service levels.
Since the introduction of traffic circles in the 2A and 2B development areas it has been difficult to maintain the landscaped centre
island features in these turning circles. The maintenance has been made significantly more difficult with the ban on herbicides that
were most effective in limiting weeds and unwanted vegetation that is constantly present in these landscaped areas.
This has resulted in increased costs associated with frequent manual removal of the unwanted vegetation in an effort to maintain
these areas to an acceptable state of appearance. It has become increasingly evident that a change in the landscape is necessary
to improve efficiency and appearance. In addition, there have been occasions where plant material has created a visual obstruction
for motorists and the associated safety related concerns.
It is proposed to remove all herbaceous plant material and replace it with more manageable turf grass, decorative rock and trees.
PROJECT BENEFITS:
Explain the benefits of the project which could include Citizen/Client, compliance, financial, internal, learning & growth or utility benefits.
Increase ongoing landscaping maintenance efficiencies. Decrease in ongoing maintenance requirements. Improved area
aesthetics. Improve sight lines and traffic safety.

72201 Work Station Refresh Carpet Paint
Infrastructure & Environmental Services
Final Approved Budget 2018
Description
TARGET START DATE AND END DATE: Use format Q4 2017 - Q1 2018
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
Provide a brief overview of the project and include the key goals, objectives and performance measures.
The office facilities are dated and we are not using the Town Hall space to maximize optimal space planning requirements.
The goal is to balance out space requirements and refresh the work space. Most of the system furniture is original and
requires an ergonomic update and revised space plan. Carpet is thread worn in areas and overall the working environment has
not been updated in decades.
PROJECT JUSTIFICATION/CAPITAL SERVICE LEVEL IMPACT:
Provide the reasons the project should be approved and what will be the impact of the project to service levels.
The plan is to space plan the floor plate and team discussions on workflows and what staff requirements are and to have
standards for job functions. Workstations would be either refreshed/replaced with new workstations and the flooring would be
replaced with carpet tiles and walls would be repainted to one building standard. Each year, we would renovate a section of
the building and continue until all the work spaces are completed. This is a multi-year plan as we want to slowly phase in
sections of the building with minimal disruption.
PROJECT BENEFITS:
Explain the benefits of the project which could include Citizen/Client, compliance, financial, internal, learning & growth or utility benefits.
As the Town grows in population and the needs/demands increase, we need to be able to adapt to the changing work
requirements, currently we have very little swing space and no room to grow. Reworking the existing space is more cost
effective than building additions.
IMPACT TO THE ORGANIZATION IF THE PROJECT WAS NOT APPROVED:
Please provide an explanation of what the outcomes would be if the project was not approved.

43038 Water Meter Replacement Program
Infrastructure & Environmental Services
Final Approved Budget 2018
Description
TARGET START DATE AND END DATE: Use format Q4 2017 - Q1 2018
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
Provide a brief overview of the project and include the key goals, objectives and performance measures.
Water meters are an important component of Aurora's Municipal Drinking Water System. Every residential, industrial,
commercial, and institutional customer is equipped with a water meter to track consumption. This ensures that each
individual customer is being billed for only the water they consume. The average life span of a residential water meter is 20
years
LINK TO STRATEGIC PLAN
Supporting an exceptional quality of life for all - Objective 2: Invest in sustainable infrastructure - Maintain and
expand infrastructure to support forecasted population growth through technology, waste management, roads, emergency
services and accessibility.
PROJECT JUSTIFICATION/CAPITAL SERVICE LEVEL IMPACT:
Provide the reasons the project should be approved and what will be the impact of the project to service levels.
Water meters are mechanical devices and like all mechanical devices wear with age. For this reasons they need to be
replaced so that the Town can ensure that the water meters are providing as accurate measurements as possible. Water
meters were installed here in Aurora in 1990, we currently have approximately 15,000 service connections and water meters.
PROJECT BENEFITS:
Explain the benefits of the project which could include Citizen/Client, compliance, financial, internal, learning & growth or utility benefits.
The age of the majority of our water meters have hit 20 years old. Water meters are most accurate for the first 10-15 years, their
accuracy decreases as they wear to the benefit of the consumer. This reduction in accuracy has a negative impact on the revenue
stream for the Town of Aurora and it increases our water loss. This project is being funded from the water reserve, however, will be
overseen by both IES and Corporate and Financial Services Departments as it relates to metering and revenues.
IMPACT TO THE ORGANIZATION IF THE PROJECT WAS NOT APPROVED:
Please provide an explanation of what the outcomes would be if the project was not approved.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
Provide a brief overview of the project and include the key goals, objectives and performance measures.
To provide a Town-wide bridge assessment in accordance with the MTO's Ontario Structure Inspection Manual (OSIM). The
need for mobility requires that Ontario's highway system be kept in good repair. Structures are a vital part of this system and
the efficiency of the system is impaired if these structures fail or their long-carrying capacity is reduced. To avoid such
failings, an effective and systematic inspection of the structures on the highway network is required. The project includes:
- hiring a structural consulting engineer to assess the condition of all bridges and large culverts on Town's highways
- provide a condition rating for all these type of structures
- provide recommendations for general maintenance, rehabilitation and/or replacement
PROJECT JUSTIFICATION/CAPITAL SERVICE LEVEL IMPACT:

42072 Vandorf Sideroad Culvert and Ditch Repair
Infrastructure & Environmental Services
Final Approved Budget 2018
Description
TARGET START DATE AND END DATE: Use format Q4 2017 - Q1 2018
Q4 2017 - Q3 2018
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
Provide a brief overview of the project and include the key goals, objectives and performance measures.
To provide funding for the replacement of an existing 1.0m diameter CSPA culvert that crosses Vandorf Sideroad
approximately 280m east of Bayview Ave and to regrade approximately 30m of existing ditch so that it flows to this culvert.
PROJECT JUSTIFICATION/CAPITAL SERVICE LEVEL IMPACT:
Provide the reasons the project should be approved and what will be the impact of the project to service levels.
The culvert on Vandorf Sideroad has broken creating a hole by the edge of the road's south shoulder, which occurred where
the culvert had once been lengthened. The culvert has inadequate cover over it making replacement of the broken portion of
pipe unadvisable. The roadside ditch is draining away from the culvert and needs to be directed to drain towards it. As a
result, proper drainage will occur and safety hazard and maintenance concerns due to the broken culvert will be rectified.
Work includes: replacing the entire length of existing CSPA culvert with a new multi-barreled culvert that will have improved
cover over it; regrading of approximately 30m of ditching to improve and re-direct drainage to this culvert; reinstatement of the
roadway where the culvert is being replaced and ditch vegetation where the ditch is being regraded.
PROJECT BENEFITS:
Explain the benefits of the project which could include Citizen/Client, compliance, financial, internal, learning & growth or utility benefits.
Replacing the culvert and completing minor ditch regrading, will improve the road's drainage and will remove the safety hazard
and maintenance concerns associated with the broken culvert and compromised road shoulder.
IMPACT TO THE ORGANIZATION IF THE PROJECT WAS NOT APPROVED:
Please provide an explanation of what the outcomes would be if the project was not approved.
Further deterioration of the culvert and erosion of the culvert if it is not replaced.

To redevelop the Town of Aurora website to update technology, reduce inefficiencies, increase community engagement and
improve service delivery to residents and visitors.
PROJECT JUSTIFICATION/CAPITAL SERVICE LEVEL IMPACT:
Provide the reasons the project should be approved and what will be the impact of the project to service levels.
Council has expressed the need for a new updated website for the Town in response to complaints from residents. In
addition, technology has improved since the existing website was developed which will enable us to improve the user
experience.
With the increase in social media content, video, PlaceSpeak - the Town's online community engagement platform and text
message alerts, a new website will be required to better promote content and ensure residents are able to access the most
timely, relevant and engaging content.
The redevelopment of the website will also present an opportunity to move the site from its existing serving in Newmarket to a
different server that is able to provide more consistent service, while ensuring the highest levels of network security.
PROJECT BENEFITS:
Explain the benefits of the project which could include Citizen/Client, compliance, financial, internal, learning & growth or utility benefits.
Improved navigation and search functionality making it easier for the community to find what they are looking for. Increased
community engagement through the delivery of more relevant content, opportunity for more advanced reporting and analytics to
assist with ongoing improvements to the user experience, ability to better promote revenue generating programs and services, more
stable back-end reducing outages and website down time, ability to automate many of the functions that are currently conducted
manually by staff, thereby saving staff time.
IMPACT TO THE ORGANIZATION IF THE PROJECT WAS NOT APPROVED:
Please provide an explanation of what the outcomes would be if the project was not approved.
Staff would have to continue with the time-consuming and manual processes, reducing the time Communications is able to
spend on other tasks. Website would not be able to undergo significant changes and improvements and the Town would be
unable to address the concerns of residents.

TARGET START DATE AND END DATE: Use format Q4 2017 - Q1 2018
Q2 2018 - Q4 2018 Conditional Approval - Additional Information Required
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
Provide a brief overview of the project and include the key goals, objectives and performance measures.
This project is the 2nd phase of the Audio/Video project that started with the Holland Room and Council Chambers last year.
Phase 2 of the consultant engagement was to examine the rest of the boardrooms throughout Town Hall and the off site
boardroom facilities with the goal of analyzing the needs in the room, taking inventory of the existing equipment and
proposing new future proof ideas for equipment replacement and efficiencies. This project provides the necessary money to
make equipment changes in the boardrooms as identified by the consultant.
PROJECT JUSTIFICATION/CAPITAL SERVICE LEVEL IMPACT:
Provide the reasons the project should be approved and what will be the impact of the project to service levels.
Leveraging current technology and proposing process changes for the more efficient use of meeting room resources and
equipment will improve service levels. With new technology, the time spent finding a free boardroom, driving to another offsite
meeting and setting up portable equipment can be reduced. Saving staff time to focus on more important things.
PROJECT BENEFITS:
Explain the benefits of the project which could include Citizen/Client, compliance, financial, internal, learning & growth or utility benefits.
The benefits are internal in nature. They include reducing travel between sites for meetings (leveraging conferencing),
improved efficiencies in boardrooms by having access to files needed to be displayed quickly and easily with meeting
participants - increasing production during meetings. As well as to reduce our carbon footprint by further reducing our
printing and better leveraging our electronic files.
IMPACT TO THE ORGANIZATION IF THE PROJECT WAS NOT APPROVED:
Please provide an explanation of what the outcomes would be if the project was not approved.
Staff would continue to use existing boardrooms, some with limited to no technology in place for their meetings. Staff will
have to continue to use old methods for meetings (in person vs virtual/conference) as well as to spend more time coordinating
meetings and resources instead of investing in more productive use of time.
