inclusion of a fire sprinkler suppression system from a health & safety perspective,

Finance staff have provided input and taken into consideration the two exceptions
affecting this project; the additional costs in the amount of $183,500 and the implication
of new harmonized sales tax (HST).
The additional costs identified are due to the inclusion of a fire sprinkler suppression
system which was not included in the original scope of work. Based on the restriction on
the RInC grant, we can only fund 50% of the total costs from Federal sources. This
implies that only 50% ($91,750) of the additional costs will be funded from the Federal
Gas Tax Fund. The remaining ($91,750) additional costs will be funded by an increase
in debt financing. The revised amount to debt-finance will be $411,750.
Effective July 1, 2010, the HST will come into effect. With the new HST, municipalities
will be charged 13% on most goods and services and subject to a rebate of 11.24%,
resulting in a net cost of 1.76% to the City.
It is difficult to determine what percentage of the work will be done prior to July 1, 2010
or after July 1, 2010 or to isolate the built-in PST component in the tender cost. This
makes it difficult to estimate. the net impact of this new HST implementation on the City
in terms of increase or decrease costs. The current estimated costs are based on the
existing rules as we are unable to estimate the implication of the new HST. Finance
staff will revisit the financial implication of this project at the completion of the project.
The overall net financial impact of the introduction of the HST to the City on all capital
projects commencing in 2010 will be analyzed at the end of our 2010 fiscal year.

Sustainability Implications: The rehabilitation of the Don Beer Arena, and in
particular the accessibility upgrades, will continue to encourage the development of
active, healthy lifestyles throughout the community.
The replacement of the existing mechanical plant will provide a more energy efficient
heating and cooling system, thereby lowering energy costs and reducing greenhouse
gas emissions. The intensive green, roof which is proposed over the new roof area will
serve to add insulation, improve the carbon balance and assist in storm water
management. The addition of an elevator to service the banquet hall will enhance the
accessibility of this facility.
Background: The Don Beer Arena Accessibility Upgrades and Environmental
Improvements was approved by Council in the 2009 Capital Budget.
The architectural firm of Jurecka+ Associates Architects Inc. was retained to provide the
final design, prepare tender specifications and technical support during construction.
. I
Tenders have been received which closed on Wednesday, February 17, 2010 for this
project.
An advertisement was placed in the DCN and.on the City's website. A mandatory site
visit was held on Wednesday, January 20, 2010 and twenty five (25) bidders attended
of which thirteen (13) bidders responded and submitted a bid for this project. Five (5)
addenda were issued during this tender call.
The bidding summary is attached.
The City's consultant, Jurecka + Associates Architects Inc., has undertaken the
necessary reference checks related to the general contractor and the sub contractors
and is recommending acceptance of the low bid, being Deciantis Construction Ltd.
The tender prices as received have all come in marginally higher than originally
anticipated during the budget process. The main reason for the higher pricing is the
inclusion of a fire sprinkler suppression system from a health & safety perspective,
which~was not included in the original scope of work. However, a portion of the
additional cost is eligible for funding under the Federal Gas Tax program, thus the over
expenditure will only marginally increase the required debt financing.
The Health & Safety Policy, WSIB Clearance Certificate and Workplace Injury Summary
Report issued by Workplace Safety & Insurance Board submitted by Deciantis
Construction Limited has been deemed acceptable by the Coordinator, Health & Safety.
