PURPOSE OF THE REPORT To obtain Council authorization to award Tender PRS2016 -23 for the provision and installation of Trails Way Finding Signage in accordance with the Procurement By-law. BACKGROUND Trails Master Plan Recommended a Parks and Trails Signage and Way Finding Strategy be implemented. The Parks and Trails Signage Strategy was initiated during the previous term of the Trails and Active Transportation Committee (TATC)and subsequently approved by Council as a multi-phased capital project. The need for trails wayfinding signage strategy and consistency in our parks signage was identified by the consulting firm that was engaged in producing the Trails Master Plan. It was noted by the Consultants that due to growth in the municipality,the popularity of our trails and the expanding trails system that users would benefit significantly by the Council Meeting Agenda Tuesday,July 12,2016 Item 5 Page -1 -70 - July 12,2016 -2 -Report No.PRS16-035 installation of way finding signage both on our trails and in our Parks system. Proceeding with Phase 1 of the Parks and Trails Signage Strategy fulfills recommendation 5-23 of the Council approved Town of Aurora Trails Master Plan as follows: Recommendation 5-23 That information signs be provided along the Trail and on the Towns Trail Map to identify the location /direction to transit access and publicly accessible washrooms and wast Council approved Capital Project No.73134 Trail Signage Implementation in 2015 Capital Budget In 2012,TATC recommended to Council that the Trails Way Finding Strategy be an approved project and that staff proceed to detail design and Tendering for the implementation of Phase 1 of a multi-phased Parks and Trails signage implementation project.Council approved this recommendation and staff submitted Capital Project #73134 Parks/Trails Signage Study and Implementation projec t in the 2015 Capital Budget. The project budget was approved by Council and staff proceeded with the detail design process.The design process was lengthy due to the complexity of the project which included multiple revisions and refinements that were re quired to ensure both the accuracy and effectiveness of the proposed Trail Signage.This resulted in additional time spent to complete the design process and the project could not be tendered in 2015. The signage design and tender preparation process was completed in late April 2016 and forwarded to Procurement for the issuance of the project Tender. COMMENTS TATC and Accessibility Advisory Committee (AAC)Endorse Trails Signage Strategy Both the TATC and the AAC had an opportunity to review and comment on the Signage Strategy as identified in following recommendations and staff included the majority of the recommendations and suggestions by these Committees in the proposed signage design project. The only exception to this was the recommendation from the AAC for inclusion of Braille Tactile Graphics. In addition,the new trails signage will be compliant with the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act (AODA)as follows: Council Meeting Agenda Tuesday,July 12,2016 Item 5 Page -2 -71 - July 12,2016 -3 -Report No.PRS16-035 Signage on Recreational Trails Providing clear signage can help users decide how best to enjoy the trail experience according to their needs and abilities.The trail head must have signage containing information about the physical characteristics of the trail[s. 80.9(1)8],including: length of trail; type of surface of which the trail is constructed; average and minimum trail width; average and maximum running slope and cross slope;and location of amenities,where provided. The following TATC recommendation was approved by Council on March 4,2014: THAT report TATC14-03 be received;and THAT Council adopt the following recommendations from the Trails and Active Transportation Committee meeting of February 21,2014;and THAT the Trails and Active Transportation Committee endorses the current Trails Signage Strategy. CARRIED On September 9,2014 Council approved the following Trails Signage Strategy recommendation with the exception of Braille: THAT report PR14-037 be received;and THAT Council approve the Trails and Parks Wayfinding Strategy save and accept for the inclusion of braille tactile graphics on trail signage. CARRIED As a result of completing the aforementioned review process,the TATC and the AAC both endorse Trails Signage Strategy. Phase 1 of the Parks and Trails Signage Strategy will involve trail entrance and information signs as well as way finding signage throughout the system.This type of signage is currently lacking and for those users who are unfamiliar with our trail system , it is likely these users could experience some level of disorientation and confusion with the trail route. Phase 1 of the project will be comprised of the Tim Jones Trail and the Klaus Wehrenberg Trail formerly known as the Holland River Valley/Nokiidaa Trail. Tender Number PRS2016-23 Signage for Parks &Trails was issued on the open market on May 4,2016 and a total of thirty -four (34)companies picked up bid Council Meeting Agenda Tuesday,July 12,2016 Item 5 Page -3 -72 - July 12,2016 -4 -Report No.PRS16-035 documents.On May 3,2016 the Tender Opening Committee received six (6)bids.Two (2)bids were deemed compliant.

COMMENTS Planning Considerations Provincial Policy Statement (PPS) The PPS encourages the development of strong communities through the promotion of efficient land use and development patterns.The proposed commercial development is being developed on an existing urban area which minimizes land consumption and uses the existing servicing infrastructure to provide services to a wider range of residents in the area.The proposed development is located along a major transit route which promotes alternative modes of transportation.The proposed amendments will encourage and provide opportunities for economic development and community investment.As a result,it is Planning Staff’s opinion that the proposed Official Plan and Zoning By-law Amendment applications are consistent with the PPS. Places to Grow Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe Places to Grow promote and encourages new growth in built-up areas of a community through intensification.The applications to amend the Official Plan and Zoning By-law Amendment to permit the proposed commercial development are consistent with the Places to Grow Plan by directing new growth to the built up areas and reducing dependence on the automobile through the development of a trans-supportive, pedestrian-friendly urban environment. Lake Simcoe Protection Plan (LSPP) The subject lands are located within the Lake Simcoe watershed and are subject to the applicable policies of the Lake Simcoe Protection Plan.The Lake Simcoe Conservation Authority reviewed the proposed applications with no further comments.A more detail technical review will be completed at the time of the Site Plan Application process.As such,it is Planning Staff’s opinion that the proposed amendments to the Official Plan designation and the Zoning By-law will conform to the Lake Simcoe Protection Plan. York Region Official Plan (YROP) The lands are designated “Urban Area”in the YROP.It is York Region’s opinion that the proposed Official Plan amendment is in keeping with the policies of the YROP.York Region has no objection to the general location of the proposed signalized intersection onto Bayview Avenue.Further detail technical engineering design will be review at the site plan application stages. Council Meeting Agenda Tuesday,July 12,2016 Item 9 Page -6 -123 - July 12,2016 -7 -Report No.PDS16-059 According to section 8.3.8 of the Region of York Official Plan,the proposed Official Plan Amendment will require approval by Regional Planning Committee and Council. Town of Aurora Official Plan -Area 2B Secondary Plan (OPA Number 30) The proposed Official Plan Amendment is consider to be appropriate and in compliance with the overall policies of the Official Plan Staff reviewed the policies to the Official Plan in context of the subject lands relative to the surrounding lands and consider them appropriate and in compliance with the overall policies of the Official Plan. As illustrated in Figure 2,the Applicant proposes to re-designate the Official Plan designation affecting the subject lands from “Convenience Commercial”to “Community Commercial”.The “Convenience Commercial”designation of land is intended to accommodate smaller scale shopping needs including convenience stores and personal service establishments.The total size of the subject land is approximately 2.5 hectares. Due to the size of the lot being much larger than a typical convenience commercial site, the Applicant proposes to maximum the subject lands by providing commercial uses that will serve a wider community.The intent of the “Community Commercial” designation is to provide opportunities for commercial development that will cater to weekly shopping and service needs of residents and business in the community including multi-tenant commercial buildings and supermarkets. The Town’s Peer Reviewer concurs with the findings from the Marketing Analysis to support the proposed supermarket use Section 3.4.3 d)of OPA No.30 recognizes supermarkets having an important role within the Community Commercial designation.A study to demonstrate adequate market support for such use is required.Urban Metrics Inc.was retained by the Applicant to conduct a Supermarket Demand and Impact Analysis on the subject lands. The analysis was peer reviewed by Scott Morgan &Associates Limited and concluded the following: The Marketing Analysis was prepared in accordance with good professional standards,contains no numerical inaccuracies,and is backed up by good empirical research; There are no short,medium,or longer term risks from a market standpoint to the existing inventory of supermarket /grocery space;and There is sufficient market capacity to support the subject Official Plan Amendment and rezoning applications in the short to medium term without damage to planned function. Council Meeting Agenda Tuesday,July 12,2016 Item 9 Page -7 -124 - July 12,2016 -8 -Report No.PDS16-059 The proposed Official Plan Amendment conforms to the general commercial policies of the Official Plan The subject property is located along a transit route and located at an intersection of two arterial roads and is within walking/cycling distance to service a wider community.A Traffic Impact Study was prepared by Cole Engineering demonstrates that the existing road network can accommodate the proposed development with no negative impacts. The Functional Servicing Study prepared by Cole Engineering indicates that there is adequate storm and sanitary sewer capacity as well as water supply available for the proposed development.The Environmental Impact Study prepared by Beacon Environmental indicates that there are no adverse impacts on surrounding land uses as the subject property is adequately separated from residential uses on all four sides. Staff are generally satisfied with the urban design/architectural and built form components of the plan Under the provision of Official Plan Amendment No.30,the proposed development is subject to the Wellington Street East Corridor (Area 2B)Urban Design Guidelines.The Urban Design Guidelines identify the subject property as a secondary gateway into the Town.The Planning Partnership has been retained to peer review the urban design and architectural components of the development.The Planning Partnership are satisfied with the architecture and built form components of the plan.A detailed evaluation of the proposal will occur through site plan review and approval prior to the execution and registration of the Site Plan Agreement.Sign-off on building plans will also be required. Zoning By-law 2213-78,as amended To implement the proposed commercial development and to achieve the goals and vision of the urban design guidelines,the applicant has requested to re-zone the subject lands from ‘Rural General (RU)Zone’to the zone categorization of ‘Shopping Centre Commercial (C4)Exception Zone”.Recognizing that each site and development proposal has differing characteristics,the proposed site specific provisions are necessary to apply specificity to the bylaw with respect the proposed site development being considered by Council.In addition,the amendments will allow flexibility to the commercial uses while still providing a general framework to achieve the overall goals and objectives of the Urban Design principles. Furthermore,Planning Staff have evaluated the implementing Zoning By-law in the context of the Official Plan.As a result,Planning staff are of the opinion that the proposed rezoning is appropriate and consistent with the development standards of the Town and compatible with adjacent and neighbouring development.

TOWN OF AURORA Additional Items for Council Meeting Tuesday,July 12,2016 Item 12 Page -1 July 12,2016 -2 -Report No.CFS16-022 PURPOSE OF THE REPORT To assist Committee in developing budget preparation directives for the 2017 Operating Budget for Council consideration. BACKGROUND During the 2016 Budget process,it was a considerable gain in efficiency and effectiveness of the process for Council to give clear budget direction to staff in advance of preparing the operating budget.When the target was achieved and presented,only minor changes were made by Council through the addition of some new priority special projects or initiatives.These additions were net zero to the tax rate as they were funded from reserves. In the intervening period,the Finance Advisory Committee and Council have finalized and approved a pair of foundational documents regarding the annual budget;the Council Budget Principles,and Council Budget Process documents.These documents, posted on our website in the Budget page,contain statements of agreed fundamentals to be upheld during the preparation of the annual budgets of Council. COMMENTS Key principles for the 2017 budget development. (numbering corresponds to the numbered Principles in the Council Budget Principles document) 2)The budget process will include the use of the On-Line Citizen Budget tool to allow residents the opportunity to provide input into budget priorities. 5)Council will undertake to complete the budget review and approval prior to the commencement of the 2017 calendar year. 8)Council will not rely on budget surplus from one year to support or mitigate budget pressures in the following budget year. 10)Council and staff will continually look to implement changes in technique,tools,or approaches in delivering all services and functions which would reduce cost,or improve efficiency or effectiveness of our work. 12)Council is committed to adequately fund infrastructure renewal through annual increases to infrastructure reserve contributions.These additional increases will be part of the Fiscal Strategy Budget,and may require overall budget increases beyond inflation for the residents of the Town. Additional Items for Council Meeting Tuesday,July 12,2016 Item 12 Page -2 July 12,2016 -3 -Report No.CFS16-022 13)The operating budget shall include outlooks for the next three years,for a total of four years,to allow the current budget to be considered within the context of the Town’s short term future funding requirements. 14)A Special Phasing Budget will be used to continue to phase in the expected sharp increase in Fire Services costs with the anticipated addition of a new crew currently being added to Central York Fire Services.This Special Phasing budget will be funded from a portion of the growth revenue. 16)Inflation is recognized as having a direct impact on the Town’s costs of delivering its existing services.Residents and Council should expect their base taxes to increase by inflation each year,with the Fiscal Strategy Budget pushing this tax increase beyond inflation in efforts to reposition the Town’s long range financial situation. 18)While the Town is intent on advancing strategic priorities,it is likely not possible to advance all issues in every year,and the Council will need to make these key priority decisions in a scarce resource environment. 19)Innovation,efficiencies,maintaining service excellence and service improvements come through the continuous learning and development of our staff.Training and development funding will be provided in the budget. 21)The Province is providing the opportunity for additional revenue to municipalities through deliberately holding the line on school tax rate increases.To accept this additional funding,the municipalities must increase their local portions by a rate higher than inflation,failing which the opportunity to accept this additional funding is lost. Finance Advisory Committee has some budget concerns to be considered In past discussions with Finance Advisory Committee and with General Committee there are other specific budget concerns that need to be addressed in the 2017 budget as follows: 1)Ongoing concerns that there are some budget line items which are historically underfunded or overstated such as utilities among other items.These corrections need to be made and adjusted in the 2017 budget. 2)An Aurora Museum Services and Programming multi-year plan was received by Council,although no additional budget funding was approved in 2016 towards this plan.However,some one-time cultural funding was committed specifically for a multicultural community event and live music strategy but not for the museum multi-year plan.Council will need to provide staff with clear direction with respect to expected service levels and funding direction to any expansion of services and provide funding beyond the base budget funding to provide such services. Additional Items for Council Meeting Tuesday,July 12,2016 Item 12 Page -3 July 12,2016 -4 -Report No.CFS16-022 3)During the 2016 final budget approval,there were several comments that in future budgets,the Library,Cultural Centre Board and Historical Society should each receive a clear budget target in advance of final budget preparation as does each department of the Town.If Council feels differently,clarification should be made at this time so that clear budget direction can be provided to these groups by staff in the budget process. Based on the highlighted principles and the three items above,it is recommended that the following budget directions be approved for the preparation of the 2017 operating budget: Base Operating Budget: 1)The overall Aurora net tax increase for the Base Operating be limited to the reported July 2015 to June 2016 Consumer Price Index (CPI)for the Toronto Area. 2)All fees,rates and charges are to be indexed by the same CPI reported value, and new revenue sources identified. 3)Within the Base Operating Budget,staff will address current budget underfunding in identified areas such as utilities,and certain program revenue line items.Such corrections may be funded from growth revenue,but program and service extensions for growth must also be accommodated within the expected growth revenue. 4)For strategic priorities separately identified by Council,a further levy increase should be considered for such new funding.Council may consider a multi-year phased approach to increasing service levels;and 5)After accommodation of the budget underfunding,the Cultural Centre Board,and the Historical Society will each receive a clear budget funding allocation early in the budget development stage for their consideration when preparing their business plans;and 6)A current plus three year forecast will be prepared,and will include a staffing needs analysis and forecast for the same period.This forecast must include information on plans for the administration to adapt to the changing growth horizon as the Town transitions from a greenfield growth municipality to one of slower intensification type growth. Phase-In Budget 7)The Phase-In budget strategy currently approved for Fire Services expansion will be funded from within the inflationary and growth components of the Base Additional Items for Council Meeting Tuesday,July 12,2016 Item 12 Page -4 July 12,2016 -5 -Report No.CFS16-022 Operating Budget,as applicable,with any excess planned increase being a separate component of the overall tax increase. Fiscal Strategy Budget 8)In addition to the base budget increase for inflation,a 1%dedicated Fiscal Strategy tax levy increase will be imposed to fund additional contributions to Infrastructure Reserves in accordance with the long range fiscal strategies adopted in the recent Ten Year Capital and Asset Management Plan. LINK TO STRATEGIC PLAN Developing the annual budget supports all aspects of the Strategic Plan.Specifically, this report supports the Plan principles of Leadership in Corporate Management, Leveraging Partnerships,and Progressive Corporate Excellence and Continuous Improvement. ALTERNATIVE(S)TO THE RECOMMENDATIONS 1.Council may provide amendments to the proposed tax rate increase and directions to staff for the preparation of the draft 2017 operating budgets.In this event,it is recommended that Committee consider specific direction for the Town Departments, separate from direction for the Library,Historic Society,Aurora Cultural Centre and Fire Services budget components. 2.Council may choose to provide direction with respect to increased levels of service in a manner,together with the funding source for such. FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS It is anticipated that strong assessment base growth from new structures (not reassessment increases)will occur for another two years,following which growth is anticipated to wane sharply.New revenue from growth is necessary funding to extend existing services at their same levels to these new residents and businesses.Inflation is a reality that if not accommodated on the full revenue side (taxes and all other revenue sources),dilutes funding available for base services,resulting in dilution of service.Accordingly,inflationary increases to taxes and service fees are necessary and should be expected by Council and taxpayers.In addition to inflation,residents and Council need to recognize that infrastructure sustainability funding is a significant funding requirement for all municipalities and should be expected as incremental beyond inflationary adjustments.In its Budget Principles document,Council has made very transparent that its reference inflationary indicator is the July to June annual CPI published by Statistics Canada for the Toronto area.This public declaration eliminates the possibility of manipulation of the CPI value in any part of the annual budget process.
