Celebre, Principal Planner — Development Review, appeared before the Committee, and through the aid of a power point presentation, provided an outline of the proposed application, indicating the location of the subject lands as well as the current land uses.

He also stated this development would not fit in with the look of the neighbourhood. Colin Walcott, 602-7 Roanoke Road, North York, appeared before the Committee stating he would be moving into this development next year. He noted his concerns over limited parking and the number of people per square foot in the area, noting this would be too much volume of people in a confined area.

David Sim, 1000 Rambleberry Drive, Pickering, appeared before the Committee, noting his concerns with the high density, and the level of turnover rate, questioning whether this would increase with the density.

That the originally proposed By-law has been modified since the public meeting on November 6, 2017, and Council confirms that no further public meeting under the Development Charges Act, 1997 (S.12) is necessary as a result; 12. That the City Clerk be instructed to undertake the By-law passage notification provisions under the Development Charges Act, 1997 and Ontario Regulation 82/98; 13. That the By-law attached to this report be approved at this meeting of Council; and 14. That the appropriate staff of the City of Pickering be authorized to give effect thereto. Executive Summary: As required under the Development Charges Act, 1997 a complete review of development forecasts, servicing needs, financial implications and financing requirements has been undertaken by the consultants: Watson & Associates Economists Ltd., and staff of the City of Pickering. This has resulted in the identification of significant capital expenditures required for future development as contained in the Council approved Official Plan for the City of Pickering. Financing for these projects will come from Development Charges (DC) for the development related portion, and the tax levy, or other sources of revenue as may be available, for the portions attributable to existing development or for increases in the level of service. In summary, the total Residential Single and Semi Detached Unit Development Charge has increased by 1.8% for lands outside of Seaton and decreased by 7.5% for lands within Seaton. The decrease for the development charge within Seaton is due to the capital programs for the municipal wide services such as Parks and Recreation and Stormwater Management decreasing while costs for Transportation have increased which are excluded from the DC charge for Seaton. Construction costs for roads within Seaton are recovered through the Seaton Financial Agreement (FIA). The October 5th version of the 2017 DC Study included a substantially higher DC apartment rate with an increase of 21.6% above the current rates. The City received comments from the Development Community regarding the proposed increase as it relates to their future building plans. Historically, each new condominium tower generates the equivalent of 1% assessment growth for the City. To encourage downtown intensification, while the City transitions from a "moderate to strong 42 Report FIN 28-17 December 11, 2017 Subject: 2017 Development Charges Background Study Page 5 current DC rate. Apartments can take many years to plan for and construct, and units are typically sold far in advance of the issuance of building permits (which is also the time the development charges are paid to the City). Therefore, in order to minimize the impact on developers, the City will delay the implementation of the new rates for lands outside of Seaton by three years, or until December 31, 2020 and will continue to apply the existing rates that will be indexed every year on July 1st The non-residential Development Charge rates are decreasing 28% for lands outside of Seaton, 16.1% for Seaton lands and 7.4% for the Prestige Employment Land in Seaton. The decreases are attributable to the increase in the gross floor area forecast. All rates, residential and non-residential, being recommended continue to be one of, if not the lowest, in Durham Regibn. This positions the City of Pickering to be competitive and attractive for economic development. It is important to note that the Chief Administrative Officer, the Directors and staff of all Departments providing services for new development have been involved in this Study and concur with this report and its Recommendations. In addition, the By-law maintains the form of the previous By-law. In summary, this study provides the foundation that will allow the City of Pickering to grow. The capital program is comprehensive and includes significant projects as shown below.

The residual amount of $151.9 million is more commonly referred to as "City Share" and this dollar amount will be funded from property taxes, senior level grant funding (such as Federal Gas Tax) or debt. The "City Share" funds the 10% statutory deduction for soft services, the "benefit to existing" deduction and the post -period benefit. The Development Charge Act requires municipalities to reduce the growth -related net capital costs associated with "soft services" by 10%. Soft services include services such as recreation, parks and libraries. Additional infrastructure that is to be put in place, that will provide benefits to the existing population, must also be funded from a source other than DC's. This is commonly known as the "benefit to existing" reduction. Typically, these reductions are funded through the property tax base. Some of the infrastructure that is planned to be built within the DC By-law will serve future population and employment-related growth beyond the life of this study and therefore, some of the capital project's cost will be allocated to future DC studies. This allocation of cost to future years is referred to as "post period benefit". Some of the Seaton -related capital projects may reflect this deduction. In the interim, these costs will be funded by the City and then recovered through the next DC Study planned for 2021. The financial challenge to the City is the funding of the City Share component estimated to be $151.9 million. Council should consider, starting in 2019, a special levy of at least 1% to help fund the City share costs. Discussion: In simplest terms, DC rates are calculated as follows: Growth -Related Capital Costs Growth Forecast (Population) As the above equation shows, the DC study in its simplest terms is a growth related capital budget. Growth -Related Capital Program The 2013 DC study capital forecast included the Seaton FIA. The FIA exempts the Seaton Development Area from the transportation component of the City-wide DC until Seaton has reached certain development targets as specified in the FIA. (It is anticipated that the Seaton landowners will reach these targets by 2031). This results in a lower overall DC rate for Seaton as compared to the rest of Pickering. The DC Capital program was developed by staff from all departments. Staff first reviewed the 2013 DC study and removed projects that have been completed; then the timing and costs of projects that had not been completed were updated in the context of the new growth forecast or new/improved information that is now available. Lastly, 44. Report FIN 28-17 December 11. 2017 Subject: 2017 Development Charges Background Study Page 7 projects were added to the program that are required to service the additional growth included in the 2017 DC Background Study. In the 2017 DC Background Study, some adjustments have been made to the service categories in order to better reflect our current growth -related needs. The "Operations Services" category will be re -allocated to a new category "Other Services Related to a Highway" and to "Parks & Recreation Services". The "Protective Services" category has been expanded to include By-law & Animal Enforcement Services. Historically, the "Protective Services" category only included fire protection. However, Finance staff, working with the consultant, explored the opportunity of adding new services and their corresponding capital programs for DC funding under this category. The benefit of this change is that an animal shelter is now included in the Study with vehicles related to both By-law and Animal Services. Table One shows that the DC Eligible Costs in the 2017 Study have increased by 37.3% from the 2013 study.

DC Debt Financing for Clements Road Operations Centre & Seaton Fire Hall As Members of Council may recall, the Clements Road Operations Centre includes development charges as a major funding source ($9.2 million). The Operations Centre component of the Development Charge Reserve Fund did not have sufficient funds to meet the financial obligations and therefore, the City had to borrow funds to address the DC funding shortfall. The debt financing costs (including principal and interest) related to the development charges shortfall is included in the 2017 DC Background Study. In other words, there is no cost to the Pickering taxpayer for the DC funding shortfall. The current Seaton Fire Hall building timetable is to start construction in 2019. Approximately, 97.5% of the fire hall's cost will be funded from the Protective Services DC component and this reserve fund component does not have sufficient funds. The City will have to borrow funds to cover the DC funding shortfall and the financing costs (principal and interest) have been included in the DC rates. Public Engagement Process On October 17th, staff reached out to the development industry by distributing the 2017 DC Background Study, dated October 5, 2017 and holding a stakeholder consultation on November 1st. At this meeting, representatives from the Development Industry expressed some concerns regarding the proposed increase to the two bedroom DC rate and the change to the demolition credit from ten to five years. However, the Development Industry was also pleased with the moderate increase to the "rest of Pickering" DC rates and with the decrease in the Seaton rates. Subsequent to this meeting the City held a Public Meeting on November 6th. As a result of the input received at the public meeting and subsequent correspondence, Watson & Associates has produced an Addendum to their October 5, 2017 Study, Attachment 1., which captures any changes resulting from the foregoing. Competitive DC Rates The graph below shows that Pickering's proposed single detached residential DC rate is competitive in comparison with both its Durham Lakeshore neighbours and other GTA comparators. Pickering will maintain a very competitive position, especially given its proximity to Toronto. Out of all the communities that border Toronto, Pickering has the lowest DC rates. 46 Report FIN 28-17 December 11, 2017 Subject: 2017 Development Charges Background Study Page 9 $60.000 $50,000 S40,000 530,000 S20, 000 $10,000 $o Single and Semi Detached Whitby Oshawa Ajax Clarington Rest of Rest of Seaton Seaton Pickering Pickering (Current) (New) (New) (Current) S per sq. ft 25.00 20.00 15.00 10.00 5.00 Lower Tier u Pickering Region Education Commercial 1 1 Whitby Oshawa Clarington Ajax Rest of Rest of Seaton Seaton Pickering Pickering (Current) (New) (Current) (New) Lower Tier ri Pickering w Region Education 47 1 Report FIN 28-17 December 11, 2017 Subject: 2017 Development Charges Background Study Page 10 $35,000 $30,000 $25,000 $20,000 $15,000 $10,000 $5,000 So Indexing 1 1 Apts. 2 Bedroom + i Whitby Oshawa Rest of Ajax Rest of Clarington Seaton Seaton Pickering Pickering (New) (Current) (New) (Current) Lower Tier II Pickering ►i Region Education Based on our current DC By-law, DC rates shall be adjusted annually as of July 1 each year based on the Non-residential Building Construction index in order to keep DC revenues current with construction costs. The previous indexing was done on July 1, 2017, and would be due for indexing again on July 1, 2018. Staff are proposing that the new DC rates be indexed starting on July 1, 2018. Transition to New Rates The proposed rates will come into effect on January '1, 2018. Any complete building permit applications received after January 1, 2018 will be subject to the new DC rate. Proposed Major By-law Policy Changes Under the 2013 DC By-law, property owners were given development charge credits when they demolished an existing building or dwelling. These development charge credits have a ten year life. The ten year time period does not encourage development. Instead, it allows inactivity. After demolition while a property sits vacant, the City and the Region only receive property taxes based on the vacant land property tax rate. The 2017 DC By-law proposes to change the ten year DC credit period to five years. The five year period should provide sufficient time for any rezoning or planning approval changes, and will encourage future redevelopment. A quick survey of the GTA municipalities clearly indicates that the large majority of municipalities uses the five year demolition credit rule and a few have even adopted a four year credit rule. 48 Report FIN 28-17 December 11, 2017 Subject: 2017 Development Charges Background Study Page 11 Under the 2013 By-law, farm buildings were exempt from all DC charges. The 2017 DC By-law proposes to change the full exemption for farm buildings to a partial exemption by imposing a DC charge for transportation, other services related to a highway and protection services. These DC components are related to farm activity. Attachments: 1. November 22, 2017 Addendum to Development Charges Background Study, 2017, City of Pickering 2.

Summary of Revisions made to October 5, 2017 Development Charges Background Study 1. Background Commensurate with the provisions of the Development Charges Act (D.C.A.), 1997, the City of Pickering has undertaken a Development Charges (D.C.) Background Study and has distributed the study to the public. The following provides a summary of the key dates in the D.C. by-law process: • October 11, 2017 — Public release of the City's 2017 D.C. Background Study; • November 1, 2017 — Stakeholder Consultation; • November 6, 2017 — Public Meeting; and • December 11, 2017 — Anticipated passage of D.C. By-law. The purpose of this addendum to the October 5, 2017 D.C. Background Study is to provide for refinements to the background information in the study and to implementation policies in the draft D.C. By-law. The refinements, which are minor in nature, are detailed in the subsequent sections of this report, and will form part of the 2017 D.C. Background Study for Council's consideration and approval prior to adoption of the D.C. By-law. 2. Discussion Subsequent to the public release of the 2017 D.C. Background Study, further review by City staff in response to comments received at the November 1, 2017 stakeholder consultation session and November 6, 2017 public meeting, has resulted in necessary refinements to the 2017 D.C. Background Study, and proposed D.C. By -Law. These refinements include: • revisions to project titling within the anticipated capital needs listings for Parks and Recreation, Administration Services, and Stormwater Management Services; • inclusion of a D.C. transition policy for residential apartment dwelling units outside of the Seaton Community in the proposed D.C. By-law; • revisions to the indexing provisions in the proposed D.C. By-law; Watson & Associates Economists Ltd. H.IPickering12017 DC StudylReport12017 DC Addendum.docx 51 Page 2. • corrections to replacement cost estimates used in the historical service standard calculations for the Operations Centre within the Other Services Related to a Highway and Parks and Recreation Services; and • minor textual and formatting updates to the proposed D.C. By-law. The following subsections summarize the necessary changes. 2.1 Anticipated Capital Needs for Parks and Recreation, Administration, and Stormwater Management Services The anticipated capital needs listing for Administration Services included a projected titled "Pickering Airport Feasibility Study". The title of this project has been changed to more accurately reflect the scope of the undertaking. As such, the title of the project has been, revised to "Community Engagement on Economic Impact and Employment — Highway 407 Corridor". Within the capitar needs identified for Parks and Recreation Services, the titling for project #75 "Trail — Bayly Street from Go Station to Church Street" has been revised to read "Trail — Bayly Street from Go Station to Hydro Corridor". Similarly, the anticipated capital needs listing for Stormwater Management Services contained a titling error for projects #15 and #16, i.e. Petticoat Creek Erosion Control — Design; and Petticoat Creek Erosion Control - Construction. The titling of this projects has been revised to Pine Creek Erosion Control — Design; and Pine Creek Erosion Control — Construction respectively. £2 D.C. By -Law Transition. Policy for Residential Apartment Buildings Outside of the Seaton Community The calculated D.C.s in the 2017 Background Study result in more significant increases in the charges for apartment dwelling units as compared to other low and medium density dwelling units. By comparison, calculated D.C.s for single and semi-detached dwellings and other multiples dwelling units would increase between 2%-4% from current rates, whereas apartment dwelling units would increase between 17%-22%. This variance is attributable to changes in the underlying persons per unit (PPU) occupancies of these dwelling units, as witnessed in the 2006 and 2011 Census'. Having regard for the number of high-density residential developments proceeding through the development approvals process outside of the Seaton Community, City staff are proposing a transition period to implement the calculated D.C.s for apartment dwelling units. As such, the proposed D.C. By-law has been amended to include a Watson & Associates Economists Ltd. H:IPickering12017 DC StudylReport12017 DC Addendum.docx 52 Page 3. provision to maintain D.C.s at current rates for apartments dwelling units outside of the Seaton Community, until December 31, 2020. Commencing January 1, 2021 the full calculated D.C.s for apartment units would be imposed. Moreover, during this transition period the D.C.s for apartment dwelling units outside of the Seaton Community would be subject to annual indexing consistent with the provisions identified in Section 2.3 below. 2.3 Indexing The 2017 D.C. Background Study and proposed D.C. By-law included provisions for annual indexing of the D.C.s commencing on July 1, 2019. Based on the City's intent to maintain its current timing for indexing the D.C., which is consistent with the Region of Durham, and the transition policy proposed in Section 2.2 herein, this provision has been revised as follows: All D.C.s will be subject to mandatory indexing annually on July 1st in accordance with provisions under the D.C.A. On July 1, 2018, D.C.s for all development types, with the exception of residential apartment dwelling units outside of the Seaton Community, will be subject to indexing based on the change in the most recently available index for the prior six-month period. For residential apartments outside of the Seaton Community, the D.C.s shall be adjusted for the change in index for the most recently available annual period. Commencing on July 1, 2019 all D.C.s shall be adjusted for the change in index for the most recently available annual period. The difference in application for apartment units outside of the Seaton Community reflects that no change is being proposed to those D.C.s from July 1, 2017 indexing at the time of by-law passage (i.e. January 1, 2018). 2.4 Service Standard Calculation Revisions Further review identified that the replacement cost estimates for the Operations Centre within the historical service standard calculations for Parks and Recreation Services and Other Services Related to a Highway was mistakenly overstated (i.e. $514/sq.ft. vs. corrected value of $315/sq.ft.). This correction, by adjusting the historical level of service cap for these services, does not impact the calculation of the charge. However, these items have been corrected for accuracy and future reference. Table 2-1 summarizes the changes to the 2017 D.C. Background Study in this regard. Watson & Associates Economists Ltd.

Accordingly, the revised pages are appended to this report: • Pages 32, 35, and 40 — reissued to reflect changes in Section 2.1; • Pages 27, 37, 91 (Depots and Domes), and 95 (Parks and Recreation Facilities); • Pages 56 to 57 —revised to reflect indexing provision in Section 2.3 and the transition provision described in Section 2.2; • Draft D.C, By-law — revised to reflect transition provision in Section 2.2, indexing provision in Section 2.3 and minor textual and formatting edits; and • Appendix F — reissued to reflect changes in page numbering. 4. Process for Adoption of the D.C. By-law The revisions provided herein form the basis for the D.C. by-law and will be incorporated into the 2017 D.C. Background Study to be provided to Council and the general public prior to Council's consideration and adoption of the proposed D.C. by-law on December 11, 2017. If Council is satisfied with the above noted changes to the 2017 D.C. Background Study and D.C. By-law, then prior to by-law passage Council must: • Approve the 2017 D.C. Background Study, as amended; • Determine that no further public meetings are required on the matter; and • Adopt the new D.C. By-law. Watson & Associates Economists Ltd.

H:IPickering12017 DC StudylReport12017 DC Addendum.docx 55 Page 27 Accounting for $254,000 related to reserve fund deficit position, the total D.C. eligible capital costs that have been included in the calculation of the charge are $25.1 million. The allocation of net growth -related costs for fire services between residential, and non- residential development is 78% and 22% respectively, reflective of the incremental growth in population and employment over the forecast period. Non-residential costs have been further allocated between development occurring on prestige employment lands within Seaton (36%) and all other areas of the City (64%) based on the incremental distribution of non-residential employment. 5.1.2 Parks and Recreation The City currently maintains approximately 345 acres of active developed parkland, 478 acres of passive parkland, and maintains 23.2 kilometres of trails and multi -use paths. Furthermore, the City utilizes 531,000 sq.ft. of recreation and parks operations facility space in providing parks and recreation services. To assist in the provision of services through the aforementioned facilities, parks and trails inventory, the City utilizes 186 vehicle and equipment items. The City's level of service over the historic 10 -year period averaged $2,662 per capita. In total, the maximum D.C.-eligible amount for Recreation and Parks Services over the 10 -year forecast period is approximately $198.0 million based on the established level of service.standards. The 10 -year capital needs for parks and recreation services to accommodate growth have a total gross capital cost of approximately $176.9 million. These capital needs are comprised of future parkland and trail development, additional indoor recreation space needs, and additional parks maintenance vehicles and the share of operations facilities related to parks. Approximately $15.7 million has been deducted to reflect the benefit to the existing of the identified projects, and.a further $17.4 million has been deducted to account for development benefits post -2027. The statutory 10% deduction applicable for recreation and parks totals $14.1 million. Approximately $16.5 million has been deducted from the D.C. recoverable capital costs recognizing the existing reserve fund balance, resulting in net growth -related capital costs for inclusion in the D.C. calculation of approximately $113.4 million. As the predominant users of parks and recreation services tend to be residents of the City, the forecast growth -related costs have been allocated 95% to residential development and 5% to non-residential development. Non-residential costs have been further allocated between development occurring on prestige employment lands within Seaton (3.6%) and all other areas of the City (64%) based on the incremental distribution of non-residential employment.

Calculation 5.2.1 Other Services Related to a Highway The City provides operations services related to transportation services, defined by the D.C.A. Services Related to a Highway. These services include roads operations facilities, vehicles, and equipment. These services are provided through the use of 181 vehicles and equipment items, and 52,700 sq.ft. of facility space. The average level of service provided over the historical 10 -year period based on this inventory is $184 per capita. When applied to anticipated growth over the 2018-20231 period, the per capita level of service produces a maximum D.C. eligible amount for library services of $16.0 million. The gross capital cost included in the D.C. calculation for the forecast period to 2031 totals $15.1 million. The capital cost estimates include additional vehicles and equipment items, as well as the growth -related share of the new Operations Centre and the Northern Satellite Operations Centre (including land). There is a current reserve fund balance of $154,000, recognizing the benefit to development having already occurred, which has been deducted from the D.C. eligible costs. The resulting net growth -related capital cost of approximately $15.0 million has been included in the D.C. calculation. The forecast growth -related costs have been allocated 74% to residential development and 26% to non-residential development (8% prestige employment lands within Seaton and 18% in all other areas of the City) based on the incremental growth in population and employment. 5.2.2 Stormwater Management Stormwater management needs provided in the increase in need for service reflect those in addition to the local service requirements of development, and include erosion control works, conveyance control, new facilities and water quality treatment. In total, the gross capital cost estimate for these needs over the 14 -year planning period total $52.3 million. After deducting approximately $41.5 for benefits to the existing development and $1.0 million for current reserve fund balances, the net D.C. eligible costs for inclusion in the calculation of the charge is approximately $9.9 million.

H:IPickering12017 DC StudylReport1Pickering DC Background Study-Final.docx 79 Page 139 Appendix F Draft Local Service Policy This Appendix sets out the City's General Policy Guidelines on Development Charges (D.C.) and local service funding for Services Related to a Highway, Stormwater Management, and Parkland Development. The guidelines outline, in general terms, the size and nature of engineered infrastructure that is included in the study as a D.C. project, versus infrastructure that is considered as a local service, to be emplaced separately by landowners, pursuant to a development agreement. The following policy guidelines are general principles by which staff will be guided in considering development applications. However, each application will be considered, in the context of these policy guidelines as subsection 59(2) of the Development Charges Act, 1997, as amended (D.C.A.) on its own merits having regard to, among other factors, the nature, type and location of the development and any existing and proposed development in the surrounding area, as well as the location and type of services required and their relationship to the proposed development and to existing and proposed development in the area. A. SERVICES RELATED TO A HIGHWAY Roads: Development will be required to provide local services including roadworks, sidewalks, walkways, local storm sewers, streetlights, structures, utilities and other items identified in a subdivision or development agreement, for all roads, and/or lanes a) within the plan of subdivision, b) existing, that have lots fronting onto it, c) adjacent to the plan of subdivisions but not separated by a reserve, and required to provide access from the development to an open and maintained road. The reserve will only be required where the municipality requires restricted access. Traffic Control: Development will be required to provide all traffic control measures (including fencing, line painting, pedestrian signals, and tactile warning surfaces) identified through the approval process on roads a) within the plan of subdivision, and b) adjacent to the plan of subdivision or c) intersecting the plan of subdivision. Should the development be of a large enough scale to be required to install a signalized intersection, identified through the approval process, the City will supplement the cost only if the signalized intersection is one identified in the by-law. Watson & Associates Economists Ltd. - H:IPickering12017 DC StudylReport\Pickering DC Background Study-Final.docx 80 Page 140 B. STORMWATER MANAGEMENT The following guidelines are used to identify Stormwater Management Facilities internal to development: a) the conveyance system within creeks internal to a development whereby local benefit is apparent or re -alignment is necessary for the development of adjacent lands; b) a share of the cost of culverts based on the local benefits derived; c) all stormwater management facilities, outfalls and localized creek or channel improvements related to a development plan will be cost -shared among all landowners within the planning area through Developer Cost -Sharing Agreements; and d) any stormwater quality and quantity control measures required to mitigate impacts of development (i.e. SWM ponds, superpipes, oil -grit separators, low impact development measures (LIDs), such as bioswales, rain gardens, infiltration trenches, rain barrels, offsite plantings etc.). All minor/local stormwater management facilities internal to a development (including storm sewer pipe networks, stormwater management ponds, plunge pools, creek/channel stabilization measures, LIDs etc.), are the responsibility of the direct developer under section 59, subsection (2) of the Development Charges Act (as a local service), thus have not been identified in this study. Development will be required to provide a storm sewer system sized to include all upstream lands and/or proposed developments, including the outfall section of the storm sewer to an approved location. The storm sewer system may also require and must include all lands and/or easements, structures, erosion and sedimentation controls, quality and quantity measures (SWM ponds, oil -grit separators, LIDs etc.) and restoration and/or replanting programs. Should over -sizing for upstream development be required, a front -ending agreement or site-specific development charge (amending by-law) will be reviewed and implemented if deemed appropriate. C. PARKLAND DEVLOPMENT With respect to parkland dedication, it is assumed that landowners, as part of their subdivision agreements, will be required to undertake rough and fine grading for overland flows and to seed and provision of municipal services (water, sanitary, storm, and electrical) to.the property line. The parkland development costs included in the D.C. are supplementary to that work. Watson & Associates Economists Ltd.

Fire Vehicles Justification for the replacement cost estimates used for the Quint/32m Aerial Fire Truck was requested. The replacement cost estimate for the Quint/32m Aerial as contained in the City's 2017 D.C. Background Study is based on recent tenders for similar vehicles (i.e. $1.5 million). 4. Trails Development Further explanation was requested for the change in the historical inventory of trails and the replacement cost ($/m) of multi -use paths. The historical inventory of trails provided by the City between the 2008-2017 period was re-examined during the preparation of the 2017 D.C. Background Study to reflect current inventories. The inventory of assets presented in the trails development historical level of service standard calculation sheet represents a more accurate depiction of that inventory than was included in the 2013 D.C. Background Study. Updates in this regard are commonly witnessed in the preparation of D.C. background studies. Furthermore, the replacement cost estimates for multi -use paths of $150/m has been conservatively updated by the City to reflect recent construction tenders.

That Council receive Information Report CS 30-17 regarding Lake Front Water Damage. Executive Summary: The City of Pickering experienced excessive damage and numerous service interruptions throughout the summer at both Beachfront Park and Rotary Frenchman's Bay West Park. The record high Lake Ontario water levels coupled with high spring and summer rainfall and wind storms contributed to conditions that caused significant erosion, floodingand storm damage. Throughout the spring and summer of 2017, TRCA continued to issue daily bulletins, warning of high water levels and risks of flooding. Historically, Lake Ontario lake levels are at their highest in the month of June and their lowest in the month of December. In 2017, Lake Ontario peaked on the 29th of May, at a level of 75.88 metres. This represented the highest recorded water level since records started in 1918. This level was 3 cm above the next highest level recorded in June 1952. The average water level over the last ten years is 75.07 metres or 81 cm below this year's high. This information report is to inform Council of the lake front water damage, erosion and flooding experienced in 2017 within the City of Pickering. Financial Implications: Public Works will continue in 2018 to respond to flood and storm damage to keep beachfront amenities open to the public utilizing existing operating budget. Should the level of damage be similar to that experienced in 2017, staff may be required to seek additional funds in the 2019 Current Budget. Key forecasted capital projects should incorporate flood and storm resilience in the design of any vulnerable projects. For example, the 2020 Capital Forecast includes the planned Waterfront Splash Pad Redesign/Replacement at a cost of $200,000.00 and the 2021 Capital Forecast includes the Beachfront Park Boardwalk Replacement at a cost of $1,340,000.00. The designs of these projects must consider lake level and storm affects in the design to ensure a more resilient and robust structure. 99 CS 30-17 December 11, 2017 Subject: Lake Front Water Damage Page 2 The design of the Rotary Frenchman's Bay West Park Master Plan is complete and has considered recent high lake levels and flood resilience. The 2019-2020 Waterfront Park Needs Assessment has been reflected in the 2017 DC Background Study at a cost of $100,000.00 and should also include a deliverable that addresses flood and storm resilience in the recommendations of the final report. Discussion: The lake front of both Beachfront Park and Rotary Frenchman's Bay West Park are not protected by break walls or shore walls and are vulnerable to storm damage even in years of normal Lake Ontario water levels. The record high water levels in 2017 together with saturated ground from high rainfall led to conditions that caused excessive flooding and beach damage even after average wind storms. During spring and summer of 2017, the City issued seven service disruption notices related to various waterfront closures caused by flooding, erosion and/or excessive debris. Excessive damage was caused to areas including the following: • Boardwalk o The boardwalk was under water on several occasions and was completely covered by sand and debris after severe storms. The flood water lifted sections of the boardwalk which are no longer level and boards are broken in several locations. Staff has spray painted trip hazards and installed safety cones in the worst areas. In the short term, Public Works staff will complete repairs in spring 2018. In the long term, the boardwalk must be re -built, and this project is reflected in the 2021 Capital Forecast. • Playground o The playground was closed multiple times due to sand and rock debris from storms and flooding. The beach on the south side eroded causing unsafe conditions for use of the slide. The beach level will need to be permanently re -instated to use the slide. • Beach volleyball courts o The beach volleyball courts were inundated by sand almost a third of the way up the posts. The sand build-up and high water levels made the courts unusable all summer. The beach level will have to be dug out, stones removed and re -levelled with clean sand to open the beach volleyball courts in 2018. • Picnic benches o The picnic benches were inundated and partially buried by storm debris and sand shift. The benches have been dug out and relocated. • Memorial benches o Memorial benches close to the shore line were undermined by water erosion, resulting in sixteen benches being relocated. 100 CS 30-17 December 11, 2017 Subject: Lake Front Water Damage Page 3 • Splash pad o The water all summer was up to the south side retaining wall causing gravel and rocks to be swept into the splash pad during wind events. Staff will clear storm debris as needed in 2018. • Millennium Square o Millennium Square flooded on numerous occasions. Sand and debris was swept into the square frequently. Staff will clear storm debris as needed in 2018. • Harbour entrance arms o The record lake water levels exceeded the maximum design water height. Many of the fill and fines in the riprap construction of the break walls has been washed out and will need to be replaced. Engineering staff are investigating the extent of any remedial work needed. • Beachfront Promenade o High water levels washed out the road completely, bisecting the road and connecting Lake Ontario to Frenchman's Bay. The gravel roadway deteriorated with severe potholing that could not be adequately repaired due to the saturated condition of the road base. The parking lot was flooded at the edge of Frenchman's Bay and the edge could not be seen, making it unsafe to use. Curbs and ironstone was added to the Frenchman's Bay side of the parking lot to reinstate the edge and prevent vehicles from getting too close to the water. • Sand beach o A significant section of beach was eroded into the lake. The remainder was covered with almost three feet of sand and stone from storm events. Piles of wood and other debris were removed from the beach on a regular basis. Heavy equipment will be needed in spring 2018 to remove rocks and debris and re -grade the sand beach back to its previous condition. Large volumes of wood and debris washed up onto the City's beachfront. Stone and sand was swept up onto the beach to a depth in places of over one metre. Sections of Lakeshore were eroded into the lake and can never be recovered. The attached photographs illustrate the level of damage (see Attachment #4). Public Works repeatedly assigned crews to clean up, regrade beach levels and pump water to try to maintain a level of service only to find that days later another storm would undo their hard work. Beachfront Promenade was for a significant tirrie, completely cut off by flooding that extended from Lake Ontario across the road to Frenchman's Bay, completely cutting off the Pickering Rouge Canoe Club's access by road. Based on equipment, labour and materials used on emergency repairs (not routine maintenance), the 2017 cost was in the order of $55,000.00. This work was absorbed by the existing 2017 Public Works operating budget, however the true cost is that regular maintenance and repair tasks elsewhere in the City had to be sacrificed to make resources available for emergency beachfront repair. Public Works is well equipped to deal with emergency events, and does so almost routinely. The City must, however, consider a 101 CS 30-17 December 11, 2017 Subject: Lake Front Water Damage Page 4 complete reinstatement of infrastructure at the lake front with a more resilient and robust design, better suited to stand up to future severe weather events and high lake water levels. Future Trends Starting in April 2017, floodwaters along the shores of Lake Ontario closed roads, inundated homes, and destroyed break walls. Shore side residents saw the lake rise almost one meter above its normal levels, eroding away shorelines and threatening homes. Lake Ontario receives water from precipitation, runoff from the surrounding basin, and water from the Niagara River. In the spring of 2017, all three sources dumped more water than normal into Lake Ontario. From January 2017 to June 2017, the Niagara River swelled to higher than average levels. The Niagara River added almost a half a meter, relative to historical averages, to Lake Ontario. April 2017 to May 2017 hammered the Lake Ontario basin with record-breaking precipitation. Since the Great Lakes are connected, current water levels in Lakes Superior, Michigan, and Huron, which rose to record highs three years ago, set the stage for 2017 flooding. Between January 2013 and December 2015, these lakes experienced the most rapid rise in water level ever recorded. As a result of high precipitation, Lake Superior rose 0.6 meters during that time, whereas Lakes Michigan and Huron, which hydrologists think of as one vast body of water, ros.e one meter. The flooding of Lake Ontario thus was a story three years in the making. We went from record lows over a 100 year period to a record high in just five years. In other words, extremes may become more common. Lake Ontario stretches 310 kilometres, spanning the U.S. border with Canada between the state of New York and the province of Ontario. On both sides of the border, residents and politicians called on managers of the Moses -Saunders Dam located near Cornwall, Ontario, (Attachment #2) which regulates water levels of Lake Ontario, to increase outflow from the lake into the St. Lawrence River. The International Joint Commission (IJC) is the U.S./Canadian organization that regulates bodies of water that cross or span the border. Approximately 10,400 cubic metres of water rush out of the Moses -Saunders Dam every second. That represents the highest flow rate the IJC will allow. Residents downstream along the St. Lawrence River, all the way northeast to Montreal, were also fighting back floodwaters in 2017. Any additional flow of water from Lake Ontario would have overwhelmed them further. Additionally, any increased water flow would increase riverbank erosion, which reduces depths along the critical commercial navigation route of the St. Lawrence Seaway, potentially jeopardizing the safety of ships or halting commercial navigation. The IJC have therefore set the maximum flow rate of the Moses -Saunders Dam at 10,400 m3/s. Plan 2014 The International Joint Commission, after 14 years of scientific study and public engagement, advanced "Plan 2014" as the preferred option for regulating Lake Ontario and St. Lawrence River water levels and flows. 102 CS 30-17 December 11, 2017 Subject: Lake Front Water Damage Page 5 Plan 2014 was designed to provide for more natural variations of water levels of Lake Ontario and the St. Lawrence River, and is intended to restore the ecosystem health. It will continue to moderate extreme high and low levels, better maintain system -wide levels for navigation, frequently extend the recreational boating season and slightly increase hydropower production. More year-to-year variation in water levels are believed to improve coastal health. The result in this is that larger fluctuations in Lake Ontario water levels may be expected, including the potential for high water levels similar to those experienced in 2017. Lakeshore communities should take into account the potential lake level fluctuations and potentially higher risk of flooding and storm damage in years of high precipitation. Next Steps Staff anticipate significant costs to return Beachfront Park and Rotary Frenchman's Bay West Park to the pre -flood conditions and fully open all amenities for full use in 2018. Staff's concern is that if the water levels and storm conditions return in future years, we may be spending funds re- building only to have a repeat of the damage and repair costs. Prior to any decision to expend staff resources and direct funds to reinstating the original conditions, staff are recommending that a thorough review of both Beachfront Park and Rotary Frenchman's Bay West Park's amenities and design be completed. This review, to be led by a consultant, is reflected in the 2017 DC Background Study as Waterfront Park Needs Assessment in years 2019 to 2020, at a cost of $100,000.00. With the planned development of Seaton and the increase in population growth expected in the City Centre, now is an appropriate time to review the amenities provided at the City's lake front, and plan for future development and the level of service needs of a growing population. This will avoid significant expenditure for repair and reinstatement in 2018 that would not be compatible with the long term vision for the City's lake front. The 2020 Capital Forecast includes the planned Waterfront Splash pad Redesign/Replacement for $200,000.00. Again, the design of this project will consider lake level and storm affects in the design to ensure a more resilient and robust structure. The current location suffers, with high lake water levels, from rocks and debris thrown onto the Splash pad needing frequent clean up to ensure safe use. The 2021 Capital Forecast includes the Beachfront Park Boardwalk Replacement for $1,340,000.00. The design of this project will consider lake level and storm affects in the design to ensure a more resilient and robust structure. Until replacement, Public Works will continue to maintain the boardwalk in a safe condition for public use and respond as necessary to future flood and storm damage. The Rotary Frenchman's. Bay West Park Master Plan consists of three phases in the 2018, 2019 and 2020 Capital Budget and Forecast and includes the reconstruction of Beachfront Promenade and the construction of pedestrian trails and other park amenities. The design of this project is complete and has considered recent high lake levels and flood resilience. The reconstruction will provide a more robust road to the parking lot with improved boat launch access beyond. The first 103 CS 30-17 December 11, 2017 Subject: Lake Front Water Damage Page 6 phase consisting of the west end of Beachfront Promenade reconstruction will be completed in 2018, subject to budget approval.

David Ryan, Mayor Debbie Shields, City Clerk 137 Schedule A to By-law No. 7594117 Statement of Significance Description of Property The property known municipally as 940 Whitevale Road, located on the north side of Whitevale Road east of the Hamlet of Whitevale and is located within the Whitevale Heritage Conservation District, which is designated under Part V of the Ontario Heritage Act. Statement of Cultural Value or Interest The main built resource on the property is a stone house built circa 1860, known as the William Major House. The house is a representative example of a Georgian style dwelling with Gothic Revival features, reflecting the transition between the two styles in the mid -19th century. The William Major House is.a rare example of two features that combine Georgian and Gothic design including the extra wide gable and the Palladian style window with Gothic tracery, both unusual features that may reflect regional preferences. The window is also found in the Bentley House in the Hamlet of Brougham. The William Major House provides a representative example of stone construction in the late 1850s and early 1860s, including the use of local fieldstone, the coursed, cut -stone treatment, of the facade, quoins at corners, voussoirs over openings and roughly coursed rubble stone at the rear and side elevations. The. property is associated with the development of local agriculture in the mid -19th century. The house was built by William Major. Major was a well-known cattle and horse breeder, and was descended from John Major who is credited with initiating settlement in the area. The property is visually and historically linked to the surrounding agriculture fields which were farmed by members of the Major family for 144 years. The property is important in defining and maintaining the heritage character of the Whitevale Heritage Conservation District and the Whitevale Road corridor. Heritage Attributes The heritage attributes of the property at 940 Whitevale Road include: • overall form and proportions of the stone building including the T-shaped placement of house, kitchen tail and woodshed • the stone construction using local fieldstone, Targe quoins at corners and voussoirs over openings the. Georgian Classical style of house including low-pitched gable roofs, symmetrically arranged openings, centre -hall plan, five -bay facade, central door with glazed transom and sidelights and wide plain frieze, molded cornice and eave return • the Gothic Revival elements including the wide low -pitch centre gable • the Palladian style (three-part) window with an elliptical stone arch • the central light displays a nine -over -six wood sash; within the rounded profile of the upper sash, the top row of sash lights have a pointed arch pattern; the side lights are 3 -over -two wood sash, also with a pointed arch top • surviving multi -pane six -over -six double hung window sash • brick chimneys with corbelled tops 138 1 Location Map File: Designation By -Law }KE� fG City Development DepartmentDate: • Property Description: Part of Lot 26, Concession 5, being Part 12, 40R-24276 (940 Whitevale Road) to Lands Subject By -Law 7594/17 SCALE: 1:5,000 THIS IS NOT A PLAN OF SURVEY. ••�:�•�; .••:
