GREENLANDS ACQUISITION PROJECT FOR 2016-2020 Flood Plain and Conservation Component, Etobicoke Creek Watershed Argo Caledon Development Inc. (CFN 61330) Moved by: Joanne Dies Seconded by: Gord Highet THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE RECOMMENDS THAT 0.24 hectares (0.59 acres), more or less, of vacant land, located east of Highway No. 10 and south of Old School Road, said land being Part of Lots 21 and 22, Concession 1, designated as Block 98 and 101 on draft M- Plan prepared by Rady-Pentek & Edward Surveying Ltd., Job No. 14-077, in the Town of Caledon, Regional Municipality of Peel, be purchased from Argo Caledon Development Inc.; THAT the purchase price be $2.00; THAT Toronto and Region Conservation Authority (TRCA) receive conveyance of the land free from encumbrance, subject to existing service easements; THAT the firm Gardiner Roberts LLP, be instructed to complete the transaction at the earliest possible date and all reasonable expenses incurred incidental to the closing for land transfer tax, legal costs, and disbursements are to be paid by TRCA; AND FURTHER THAT authorized TRCA officials be directed to take the necessary action to finalize the transaction, including obtaining any necessary approvals and the signing and execution of documents. CARRIED BACKGROUND Resolution #A161/15 at Authority Meeting #8/15, held on September 25, 2015, approved the Greenlands Acquisition Project for 2016-2020. Negotiations have been conducted with Mr. Justin Pica, Development Manager of M.A.M Group, acting as agent for the owner. Access to the subject lands will be achieved through adjacent TRCA lands. Attachment 1 is a sketch illustrating the location of the subject lands. Attachment 2 is an orthophoto illustrating the location of the subject lands. RATIONALE The subject lands fall within TRCA's approved master plan for acquisition for the Etobicoke Creek watershed as outlined in the approved Greenlands Acquisition Project for 2016-2020. Through the review of the Draft Plan of Subdivision 21T -12001C, TRCA staff established the limits of the open space land. Further, the subject lands are adjacent to TRCA lands to the east. Relationship to Building the Living City, the TRCA 2013-2022 Strategic Plan This report supports the following strategies set forth in the TRCA 2013-2022 Strategic Plan: Strategy 3 — Rethink greenspace to maximize its value Strategy 4 — Create complete communities that integrate nature and the built environment TAXES AND MAINTENANCE Based on TRCA's preliminary review of the environmental criteria for lands that are eligible to receive a property tax exemption under the provincial Conservation Land Tax Incentive Program, it would appear that the subject property will not be eligible for a tax exemption in 2019 and the taxes will be approximately $135 annually. Once the planned plantings are completed on the subject lands, TRCA staff will re-evaluate. It is expected that the subject parcel of land will not significantly impact TRCA's maintenance costs at this location, an assessment of the aggregate acquisitions in the area will be undertaken and the results will be integrated into TRCA's land management program and associated budgets. FINANCIAL DETAILS Funds for the costs related to this purchase are available in the TRCA land acquisition capital account.

Moved by: Joanne Dies Seconded by: Gord Highet WHEREAS Toronto and Region Conservation Authority (TRCA) is engaged in a project that requires facility management services for TRCA's new administrative office building: AND WHEREAS TRCA solicited proposals through a publicly advertised process and evaluated the proposals based on the criteria outlined in this report; THEREFORE, THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE RECOMMENDS THAT RFP No. 10020114 for facility management services be awarded to Bouygues Energies and Services at a cost of $386,411 plus applicable taxes, for a five (5) year term, to be expended as authorized by TRCA staff; THAT TRCA staff be authorized to approve additional expenditures to a maximum of $57,963 (15% of the term of the total fee), plus applicable taxes, in excess of the contract cost as a contingency allowance if deemed necessary; THAT should TRCA staff be unable to negotiate a contract with the above-mentioned proponent, staff be authorized to enter into and conclude contract negotiations with other Proponents that submitted proposals, beginning with the next highest ranked Proponent meeting TRCA specifications; AND FURTHER THAT authorized TRCA officials be directed to take whatever action may be required to implement the contract, including the obtaining of necessary approvals and the signing and execution of any documents. CARRIED BACKGROUND The Long Term Office Accommodation Project and the Long Term Office Accommodation Working Group (LTOAWG), was established on May 23, 2008 by Authority Resolution #A126/08, to determine the office accommodation needs of TRCA over the next 30 years and recommend a comprehensive, cost effective solution. Following numerous studies and reports from this working group, on February 27, 2015 Resolution #A23/15 approved 5 Shoreham Drive as the preferred site for the new headquarters and on February 24, 2017, staff reported at Authority Meeting #1/17 that all six of TRCA's participating municipalities, had approved the Project and the allocation of $60,000,000 in new and existing capital funding. In May 2017, TRCA retained Jones Lang LaSalle Canada (JILL) as its project managers for the Project. In September 2017, TRCA retained the services of an integrated design team, led by ZAS Architects and Bucholz McEvoy Architects, to proceed with the development of the project design, planning and approvals, and construction administration. This was followed by a Request for Qualifications and Proposals which resulted in the selection of Eastern Construction Company Limited to provide pre -construction services throughout the design and procurement stages and to provide construction management services for the construction of the new facility which includes the issuance of tenders to various construction trades, as approved through Resolution #A216/17 on November 17, 2017. The integrated design approach is a comprehensive holistic approach to design which brings together specializations usually considered separate during the design and implementation phases. Through the design development process, an analysis of the proposed building operation and facility requirements resulted in the need for a third -party facilities management firm to provide specialized input to the integrated design team. Further, their involvement would continue during the pre -operations and final commissioning of the building during construction while offering service management and relocation/mobilization plans at the time of building occupancy. The facilities management services would then be transferred to the daily operations of the new administrative office building. This would encompass some of the following services: • whole building performance reporting and audits; • inspections; • quality management and satisfaction surveys; • service request management; • implementation and monitoring of computerized word order systems; • sub -contractor management (cleaning, site security, waste disposal etc.); • environmental management; • risk assessment and management; • energy management; • capital planning, financial management, and reporting. The importance of a facilities management provider is crucial to the daily and long-term operations of the new head office building. As TRCA strives to design for an efficiently high-level building, it is the operation and maintenance that will allow it to meet those expectations. By including for the facilities management firm early in the design development phase, it is a value- added service to ensuring TRCA's sustainability and performance targets are reached. RATIONALE RFP documentation was posted on the public procurement website www.biddingo.com on February 6, 2019 and closed on March 13, 2019. Four (4) addendums were issued to respond to questions received. A total of eighteen (18) firms downloaded the documents and four (4) proposals were received from the following Proponents: • Bouygues Energies and Services • Black and Macdonald Ltd. • Cushman and Wakefield Ltd. • Dexterra Integrated Facility Management An Evaluation Committee comprised of staff from Corporate Services reviewed the proposals. The criteria used to evaluate and select the recommended Proponent included the following: Criteria Maximum Score Technical Proposal: Corporate Structure, Background 10 Previous Experience on Similar Work 10 Organization and Resources 20 Service Delivery 25 Environment and Sustainability 25 Pre -Start up and Mobilization 10 Sub -Total — Technical Proposal 100 Fee Proposal: Start-up & Mobilization Fee 10 Management Fee 25 Extra Services Fee (average of all rates) 5 Sub -Total — Fee Proposal 40 otal 140 Through the evaluation process it was determined that Bouygues Energies and Services provided the most comprehensive proposal that showed the proponent clearly understood TRCA's requirements set out in the RFP. This understanding of the unique nature of the project combined with the most competitive fee structure resulted in that Bouygues Energies and Services being the highest scoring Proponent. Therefore, it is recommended that contract No. 10020114 be awarded to Bouygues Energies and Services at a cost of $386,411 plus 15% contingency, plus applicable taxes, it being the highest ranked Proponent meeting TRCA specifications. Proponent's scores and staff analysis of the evaluation results can be provided in an in -camera presentation, upon request. Relationship to Building the Living City, the TRCA 2013-2022 Strategic Plan This report supports the following strategic priority set forth in the TRCA 2013-2022 Strategic Plan: Strategy 1 — Green the Toronto region's economy Strategy 10 — Accelerate innovation FINANCIAL DETAILS Although funding available for the project totals $63,538,000, TRCA continues to work towards a budget of $60,000,000, with the $3,538,000 in funding made available by the Minister of Natural Resources and Forestry to be applied to the cost of construction financing. If the total $60,000,000 in funding is not required from TRCA's partner municipalities, then the amount/term of their obligations will be reduced accordingly. Further to this point, TRCA staff continue to review and apply for provincial, federal and other funding opportunities through various grants and programs and was recently notified that TRCA has been shortlisted for consideration under the NRCan Green Construction through Wood Program grant. The financial terms of the agreement with Bouygues Energies and Services to provide facility management services are as follows: Item Cost Start up and Mobilization $106,927 Management Fee - $55,896.71 x 5 yearsi $279,484 Sub -total $386,411 15% Contingency $57,962 Total $444,374 1 The management fee is adjusted yearly based on the labour component of the Consumer Price Index (CPI).

Moved by: Joanne Dies Seconded by: Gord Highet WHEREAS Toronto and Region Conservation Authority (TRCA) is engaged in a project that requires the supply and delivery of 100,000 tonnes of 100-700 millimetre core stone material; AND WHEREAS TRCA solicited tenders through a publicly advertised process; THEREFORE THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE RECOMMENDS THAT Request for Tender (RFT) No. 10020798 for the Ashbridges Bay Treatment Plant Landform Project be awarded to Dufferin Aggregates at a total cost not to exceed $3,367,000, plus applicable taxes, to be expended as authorized by Toronto and Region Conservation Authority (TRCA) staff; THAT TRCA staff be authorized to approve additional expenditures to a maximum of $336,700 (10% of the project cost), plus applicable taxes, in excess of the contract cost as a contingency allowance if deemed necessary; THAT should TRCA staff be unable to negotiate a contract with the above-mentioned proponent, staff be authorized to enter into and conclude contract negotiations with other Proponents that submitted quotations, beginning with the next lowest bid meeting TRCA specifications; AND FURTHER THAT authorized TRCA officials be directed to take whatever action may be required to implement the contract, including the obtaining of necessary approvals and the signing and execution of any documents. CARRIED BACKGROUND On May 2, 2012, TRCA was notified of the Toronto Council decision on April 10 and 11, 2012 to direct Toronto Water to enter into a joint initiative with TRCA to lead an Environmental Assessment Study that considers a landform, south of the Ashbridge's Bay Wastewater Treatment Plant, to provide for the construction of the Coatsworth Cut stormwater treatment wetland and combined sewer overflow high -rate treatment facility, and integrate with other projects planned for the area. At Authority Meeting #5/12, held on June 22, 2012, RES.#A96/12 provided staff direction to lead the Environmental Assessment Study, in collaboration with Toronto Water, Parks, Forestry and Recreation, Toronto Waterfront Secretariat, and Toronto Waterfront Revitalization Corporation. TRCA then proceeded to undertake a Conservation Ontario Class Environmental Assessment (Class EA) to support the advancement of the project, resulting in the study entitled "Ashbridges Bay Erosion and Sediment Control Project — Conservation Ontario Class EA". This Class EA study identified a preferred alternative that consists of erosion and sediment control structures that integrate with the lakefill area required for the City's planned facilities and provides a long-term solution to address the sedimentation issue with the Coatsworth Cut navigation channel which TRCA currently maintains through a $250,000 per year dredging program. In June 2014, Toronto City Council authorized the finalization of the Environmental Study Report for the Class EA and authorized Toronto Water to undertake the detailed design of the Ashbridges Bay Treatment Plant Landform Project as a joint initiative to be led by TRCA. TRCA coordinated the detailed design for the Ashbridges Bay Treatment Plant Landform in 2017, incorporating, the approved design concepts as outlined in the City of Toronto's Coatsworth Cut and Don River and Central Waterfront EAs and TRCA's Ashbridges Bay Erosion and Sediment Control EA. The detailed design process was completed in 2018 and a permit application was submitted to Transport Canada. Department of Fisheries and Oceans and Ports Toronto authorizations and permits are currently in progress. On April 16, 17 and 18, 2019, City Council authorized the General Manager, Toronto Water to proceed with the construction of the Ashbridges Bay Treatment Plant Landform in accordance with the detailed design completed by the TRCA in 2018. In addition, the General Manager, Toronto Water, was authorized to negotiate, enter into, and execute, one or more agreements as may be necessary with the TRCA for the construction of the Landform on an actual direct construction cost recovery basis plus a reasonable administrative fee not to exceed five percent of the project cost, satisfactory to the General Manager, Toronto Water, and on such terms and conditions as are acceptable to the General Manager, Toronto Water, and in a form satisfactory to the City Solicitor. At TRCA's Board of Directors meeting #4/19, held on April 26, 2019, RES.#A58/19 provided staff with direction to negotiate and enter into and execute one or more service agreements with the City of Toronto to construct the Ashbridges Bay Treatment Plant Landform. A comprehensive implementation phasing plan for the landform was prepared as part of detailed design. Construction of the Landform will be split into three components and three corresponding cells, which will be constructed from west to east. Each phase involves the construction of a confinement berm to isolate the fill area from the lake, the filling of the cell, the construction of a protective headland -beach system, and submerged shoal habitat features. There is a central and east breakwater, which together, provides a long-term solution to address the sedimentation issue within the Coatsworth Cut Navigation channel which TRCA currently maintains through a $250,000 per year dredging program. Given the scope of the Landform Project, an estimated five to six-year phased approach is required to construct the works commencing in 2019. The phases are as follows and are depicted in Figure 1: • Phase 1 — Construction of the Cell 1 confinement berm, filling of Cell 1, and construction of the headland -beach system and submerged shoals associated with Cell 1 • Phase 2 — Construction of the east breakwater • Phase 3 — Construction of the Cell 2 confinement berm, filling of Cell 2, and construction of the headland -beach system and submerged shoals associated with Cell 2 • Phase 4 — Construction of the central breakwater • Phase 5 — Construction of the Cell 3 confinement berm (revetment) and filling of Cell 3 RATIONALE The timing and need for fill material to construct the Landform overlaps with the generation of surplus fill materials from three other Toronto Water projects in close proximity to the Landform site: the Don River and Central Waterfront (Phase 1) Tunnel, the Ashbridges Bay Treatment Plant Outfall Tunnel, and the Ashbridges Bay Treatment Plant Integrated Pumping Station. Transfer of fill material generated by these projects to the Landform will offset costs otherwise incurred to dispose of the excess material off-site. Transfer of up to 1.2 million cubic metres of fill material from the three above -noted Toronto Water projects to the Landform Project can generate up to $21 M of savings to those projects - compared to the cost of hauling the fill material to an alternate disposal site. The Landform construction sequencing plan was developed to maximize this opportunity by aligning the construction schedule of the three other projects with the construction schedule of the Landform, and there is little room for schedule slippage. Construction of the Landform must begin in 2019, with the construction of the Cell 1 berm and east breakwater completed by March 31, 2020. Delaying the project will result in the loss of the 2019 in -water construction window, in addition to $3.3M of lost savings and 171,000 cubic metres of fill material redirected to another site. In order to ensure that a July start is achievable, TRCA has undertaken the necessary pre -planning procurement work to put the project in the position to move forward with implementation upon execution of the service agreement with the City of Toronto. The material required to construct the confinement berm for Cell 1 is the focus of the pre -planning work. Material required for construction of the breakwaters, confinement Cells 2 and 3, along with the headland -beach system and submerged shoals, will be procured through separate contracts. A Request for Tender for general contractors for materials required to build the first cell of the Landform was publicly advertised on the public procurement website www.biddingo.com on April 4, 2019. A mandatory meeting and site tour was held on April 11, 2019. The RFT closed on April 18, 2019. Two addendums were issued to respond to questions received. A total of 12 firms downloaded the documents and submissions were received from the following Proponent(s): • Atlantis Marine Construction Canada Inc. • Dufferin Aggregates • Glenn Windrem Trucking • Lafarge Canada Inc. • Metric Contracting Services Corporation • Seeley and Arnill Construction The Procurement Opening Committee opened the Tenders on April 18, 2019 at 11:30am with the following results: Proponent Fee (Plus HST) Dufferin Aggregates $3,367,000 tlantis Marine Construction Canada Inc. $3,493,000 Metric Contracting Services Corporation $3,688,000 Glenn Windrem Trucking $4,050,000 Seeley and Arnill Construction $4,120,000 Lafarge Canada Inc. $4,995,000 Staff reviewed the bid received from Dufferin Aggregates against its own cost estimate and has determined that the bid is of reasonable value and meets the requirements as outlined in the RFT documents. Therefore, it is recommended that contract No. 10020798 be awarded to Dufferin Aggregates, a division of CRH Canada Group Inc. at a total cost not to exceed $3,367,000, plus 10% contingency, plus applicable taxes, it being the lowest bid meeting TRCA's specifications. Relationship to Building the Living City, the TRCA 2013-2022 Strategic Plan This report supports the following strategic priorities set forth in the TRCA 2013-2022 Strategic Plan: Strategy 2 — Manage our regional water resources for current and future generations The supply of materials outlined in this report will provide long term shoreline erosion control to existing City of Toronto facilities while providing a landbase for new City of Toronto infrastructure including a High Rate Treatment Plant as identified in the Don River and Central Waterfront EA. Strategy 7 — Build partnerships and new business models By collaborating with the City of Toronto on this large-scale waterfront construction initiative, which aligns closely with both City of Toronto and TRCA priorities, we are strengthening our municipal relationships and demonstrating our ability to deliver on these types of projects. Strategy 12 — Facilitate a region -wide approach to sustainability The implementation of this project involves the integration of three Class EAs (two City of Toronto led and one TRCA led) which will allow for a new High Rate Treatment Plant allowing the City of Toronto to better address the treatment demands of a growing city, provide long term erosion control to the Toronto shoreline and waterfront infrastructure, and address the sedimentation issue within the Coatsworth Cut navigation channel which TRCA currently maintains through a $250,000 per year dredging program. FINANCIAL DETAILS The estimated project cost for construction of the Ashbridges Bay Treatment Plant Landform Project is $96.0 million net of all applicable taxes ($97.7 million net of HST recoveries). TRCA will work with the City of Toronto to further refine the implementation budget prior to signing a service agreement to undertake the work. The contract for RFT 10020798 will not be awarded until an agreement is in place with the City of Toronto that will facilitate transfer of funds to TRCA allowing the recovery of all implementation expenses on a cost recovery basis plus an administrative fee (to not exceed 5%). Funds to support the contract for RFT 10020798 will be recovered through the service agreement and tracked under account code 183-02.

Moved by: Jack Heath Seconded by: Linda Jackson THAT the 2019 Budget, and all projects and programs therein, be adopted; THAT TRCA staff be authorized to amend the 2019 Budget, to reflect actual 2019 provincial transfer payment allocations to set the amount of matching levy required by the Conservation Authorities Act; THAT the cost of property taxes imposed by municipalities be included as additional levy to the participating municipalities where the lands are located, excluding the cost of property taxes which are passed on to a third party under a lease or similar agreement; THAT, except where statutory or regulatory requirements provide otherwise, TRCA staff be authorized to enter into agreements with private sector organizations, non-governmental organizations or governments and their agencies for the undertaking of projects which are of benefit to TRCA and funded by the sponsoring organization or agency, including projects that have not been provided for in the approved TRCA budget; AND FURTHER THAT authorized TRCA officials be directed to take such action as may be necessary to implement the foregoing, including obtaining approvals and the signing and execution of documents. CARRIED RATIONALE Enclosed in Attachment 1 (2019 Budget) is the recommended 2019 Budget, which is composed of operating and capital projects and programs. As a note, the financials within the 2019 Budget are rounded to the nearest thousand, which leads to minor addition differences within the document. Municipal Approvals Preliminary budgets are prepared each year for submission to TRCA's partner municipalities. Staff meet with municipal staff throughout the year, as required by the budget processes and schedules are set out by each participating municipality. Presentations are made to partner municipality staff and their respective committees and councils. The funding identified in the recommended apportionment of the levies reflects the amounts that the partner municipalities have approved in their 2019 budgets. Contributions from the City of Toronto and the regional municipalities of Durham, Peel and York have received council approval. The Township of Adjala-Tosorontio and the Town of Mono have been advised of TRCA's levy request. Notice of Meeting As required by regulation, TRCA has provided 30 days' written notice to its partner municipalities of the date of the meeting at which the Board of Directors will consider the budget, which includes the approved municipal levies. MNRF Transfer Payments The 2019 provincial transfer payments to conservation authorities, which must be matched with levy have recently been announced reducing the anticipated funding almost in half. The 2019 operating budget includes a provision for Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry (MNRF) transfer payments at an amount equal to $399,692. Non -CVA General Levy Each of TRCA's partner municipalities has its own unique budget requirements and annual budgetary pressures. TRCA has met each of the individual partner municipality's requirements. TRCA's funding "formula" has been designed to achieve the flexibility required in meeting individual municipal partner funding guidelines. To this end, the 2019 operating levy includes a provision, totaling $617,764 referred to as "Non -CVA Levy". Under the provisions of the Act, TRCA makes a general levy against all its partner municipalities to fund its general operating requirements. Regarding the portion of the levy that is for "administration costs" as defined in the Act, TRCA must use CVA as the basis of apportionment. With respect to the balance of the general levy which is raised for "maintenance costs" a conservation authority may apportion benefit using another allocation method that is approved in adopting the budget. The non -CVA levy adjusts the amount of the general levy that relates to maintenance costs that would otherwise be apportioned using CVA as the basis and allows TRCA to meet the unique funding guidelines of each participating partner municipality. General Levy (Operating) After considering all the factors that affect the general levy, including tax and interest adjustments, year over year shifts in CVA and individual partner municipal targets, TRCA has achieved total general levy funding in the amount of $14,828,180 representing an average increase over 2018 of 3.3%. The general levy has been allocated to the participating partner municipalities as follows: Partner Municipality 2018 General Levy $ 2019 General Levy $ Change over 2019 Ad'ala-Tosorontio 870 885 1.7 Durham 565,775 581,850 2.5 Mono 1,710 1,480 -13.5 Peel 1,856,000 1,917,000 3.3 Toronto 8,602,100 8,908,335 3.6 York 3,322,000 3,418,630 2.9 TOTAL 14,348,455 14,828,180 3.3 Capital Budget Summary The 2019 capital budget is set at $168.6 million, approximately $78.1 million higher than the 2018 budget. Municipal levy funding will finance $59 million of the capital program. Capital projects are usually funded by partner municipalities on a benefitting municipality basis. That is, with few exceptions, capital projects funded by a partner municipality, are undertaken within that municipality. These may include: • Black Creek Pioneer Village (Toronto); • Conservation Land Care (Peel and York and Durham); • Erosion Control Projects (Peel, Toronto and York); • Flood Remedial Works (Peel); • Natural Heritage Regeneration Projects (Peel and York); • Peel Region Climate Change Project (Peel); • The Living City Action Plan program (Toronto); and • Waterfront Development (Toronto, and Durham); A few capital programs are generally benefitting and based on CVA, including: • Community Transformation; • Greenspace Acquisition; • Head Office Project: • Information Technology; • Major Facilities; • Planning and Regulation Policy; and • Policy Development Review. There are several projects which are funded on a watershed basis, including: • Aquatic Ecosystem Science; • Bioregional Seed Crop; • Climate — Research and Adaptation; • Flood Gauging; • Floodline Mapping; • Report Cards; • Regional Monitoring; • Terrestrial Natural Heritage Inventory; • Terrestrial Ecosystem Science; and • Watershed Plan Development; The approximate 50% increase in TRCA's budget from 2018 to 2019 is attributed to anticipated revenues/expenses pertaining to three service areas - Water Risk Management, Regional Biodiversity and Corporate Services. Water Risk Management anticipates additional investments in private property erosion management, capital hazard management works in partnership with partner municipalities, and the implementation of multiple major planning and design projects focused on repairs to damaged waterfront erosion control structures. These opportunities will be funded through a variety of federal grants and contracted services through partner municipalities and other stakeholders. Some of the major projects that make up these capital works include Ashbridges Bay landform implementation ($19.5M); East Don Trail phase 1 ($10.8M); Bluffers Park South Headland projects ($4.5M); Upper Highland Trail at Ellesmere ($4M); Toronto Islands Gibraltar Point ($3.7M); Enhanced Erosion Management Program ($2.2M); Disaster Mitigation and Adaptation Fund projects ($2.1 M); and National Disaster Management Projects ($0.8M). Investments in Regional Biodiversity will address restoration works for the Meenor-Reesor project ($1.5M); Meadoway ($4.5M); and East Point Park ($1.4M). Corporate Services will have additional expenditures related to the Administrative Building - Financing ($13.9M) as construction is set to begin in 2019, as will drawings on the related construction loan. TRCA will continue to work with partner municipalities, including lower tier municipalities, to undertake contract services/special projects wherein TRCA has significant, specialized expertise. These engagements may include, but are not limited to, erosion work, construction of trails, bridges and wetlands, and tree planting. TRCA anticipates that contract services will continue to be an important aspect of organizational financial sustainability and growth, as changes to the Conservation Authorities Act and associated regulations come forward.

Moved by: Anthony Perruzza Seconded by: Paul Ainslie WHEREAS DG Group is constructing a new watermain along Bethesda Side Road, between the terminus of the existing municipal services eastward to Leslie Street; AND WHEREAS the proposed watermain will abut TRCA's Swan Lake Centre for Conservation (Swan Lake) facility on Bethesda Side Road; AND WHEREAS the Swan Lake facility is currently on well water service and it is beneficial to TRCA to connect to municipal water services for improved operation of the Swan Lake facility; AND WHEREAS TRCA staff have discussed the opportunity with DG Group to connect to the new municipal watermain at the time of its construction, and confirmed that the DG Group is prepared to work with TRCA on this initiative; THAT staff be authorized to enter into an agreement with DG Group to bring a water service to our Swan Lake facility; AND FURTHER THAT authorized TRCA officials be directed to take whatever action may be required to implement the agreement, including the obtaining of necessary approvals and the signing and execution of any documents. CARRIED BACKGROUND West Gormley is a planned residential community, located west of Leslie Street, south of Bethesda Side Road, in the Town of Richmond Hill. Initial phases of development have occurred adjacent to Bayview Avenue, and subsequent phases of development are planned adjacent to Leslie Street. Several plans of subdivision within this next phase of development were approved by the Ontario Municipal Board in 2016. In order to facilitate this next phase of development, new municipal servicing is required to connect to the adjacent sanitary sewer and watermain network. This work has been approved by the City of Richmond Hill, Region of York and TRCA and is to be constructed by the developer. Multiple TRCA permits were required to facilitate this work, and TRCA's Executive Committee approved the associated permits on June 30, 2017 and March 2, 2018. TRCA's Swan Lake Centre for Conservation is located on the south side of Bethesda Side Road, between Leslie Street and Bayview Avenue - directly adjacent to the proposed new watermain. The Swan Lake facility is currently on septic and well water services. With the new municipal water services that will be provided by the proposed watermain, it is possible for a water connection to be made to TRCA's Swan Lake facility at the time of construction of the watermain. Transitioning TRCA's facilities to a municipal water supply is a goal of TRCA staff, as it provides for sustainability, security and reliability with respect to domestic water quantity and quality to our facilities. TRCA staff have discussed the potential for a connection to Swan Lake at this time, with the developer, and an opportunity does exist for us to work collaboratively together. Specifically, DG Group is prepared to provide for the watermain connection from the watermain to the Swan Lake main building, in exchange for TRCA waiving/applying equivalent TRCA permitting fees associated with required permit renewals for their West Gormley subdivisions that are of an equal or greater value of the works. RATIONALE TRCA staff see significant value in attaining municipal water servicing to the Swan Lake facility at this time. The facility is currently occupied by TRCA Archaeology staff and TRCA has also entered into an agreement with the York Region District School Board (YRDSB) for use of a portion of the facility for outdoor education programming. TRCA is required to test the well water on a regular basis to meet TRCA's potable water policy, Ontario Regulation 170, and the YRDSB policies. Replacing the well with a municipal water service will reduce staff time to manage the water testing at this location and will provide a safe drinking water supply. This reduction of staff time would result in an annual savings of approximately $10,000. Through partnering with DG Group on this initiative and having their contractor install the water service connection to Swan Lake, significant cost savings will be realized over TRCA hiring a contractor to complete this work at a later date, through reducing procurement and mobilization costs, as well as attaining stand-alone approvals. Further, TRCA staff are supportive of applying DG's permitting fees in exchange for work of equal or greater value, as a means of financing this work. DG Group has submitted several applications for permit renewals for their West Gormley subdivisions, which would be applicable and referenced in the agreement. Relationship to Building the Living City, the TRCA 2013-2022 Strategic Plan This report supports the following strategy set forth in the TRCA 2013-2022 Strategic Plan: Strategy 1 — Green the Toronto region's economy Strategy 7 — Build Partnerships and new business models. FINANCIAL DETAILS The DG is proposing to provide the watermain connection at the road and a 50 mm waterline to the Swan Lake facility. In order to facilitate this portion of the work, TRCA staff are proposing to work with DG, to waive final permit fees (approximately $20,000) in exchange for this work. TRCA will be responsible for the cost to connect the waterline into the Swan Lake main building, to attain the necessary permits and archaeological clearances required to facilitate the work. TRCA's share of the costs for this work is estimated to be $20,000. Funds are available in TRCA's existing Major Facility Retrofit Budget 006-35, to cover this cost.

CARRIED 7tLd:Le]:ZeIllL`II The Engineering Projects Business Unit in the Restoration and Infrastructure Division implements numerous construction projects every year throughout TRCA's jurisdiction. These projects often utilize existing park infrastructure such as trails and parking lots as construction access routes, equipment staging areas and for the stockpiling of materials. As part of TRCA's commitment to our external partners, full restoration of areas is completed as part of the scope of work. A Request for Tender for asphalt paving services was issued by the Engineering Projects Business Unit combining six separate project sites to obtain competitive pricing. A description of each site is provided below. Langholm Park Minor Maintenance and Drainage Project Langholm Park is located northwest of the intersection of Keele Street and Wilson Avenue, in the City of Toronto. Surface run-off from the July 8, 2013 storm event has led to the formation of a large gully along the face of the slope within the project area. This runoff has caused a catchbasin located partway up the slope to become outflanked, and has created an informal drainage channel further downslope, putting an existing outfall at risk. TRCA is implementing slope stabilization and stormwater management features to prevent further risk to municipal infrastructure. Construction vehicles will use the existing path within the park for access to the slope, and as part of the agreement with the City of Toronto, TRCA is responsible for restoring the work area to original conditions or better. Asphalt paving services are required to repair the pedestrian trail in order to meet restoration obligations and safely reopen the park to the public. Jennifer-Whitburn Multi -Use Trail and Parking Lot TRCA, in partnership with the City of Toronto, intends to construct an 800 metre long multi -use trail that is compliant with the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act (AODA) requirements. The trail would connect pedestrians and cyclists on Keele Street to Downsview Dells Park. The formal trail will use the existing rubble subbase that was installed by TRCA for a construction access road in 2014. This access road and nearby parking lot were used from 2014 to 2018 in order to implement several emergency flood and erosion control projects near Downsview Dells Park, with substantial completion of these projects occurring in 2018. Asphalt paving services will be required before formally opening the trail and parking lot to the public. Maitland Park Stream Restoration Project Maitland Park is located within the City of Brampton near the intersection of North Park Drive and Dixie Road. Bank erosion was putting the nearby public path and a City light standard at risk. TRCA staff implemented a pool and riffle system, constructed armourstone bank protection, relocated the light standard, and removed a section of the existing concrete channel to improve the stream's ecological function while mitigating erosion. This work began in late September 2018 and was completed in January 2019. A portion of the asphalt path in the work area was damaged during the implementation phase. As part of the agreed upon scope of work with the City of Brampton, TRCA is required to restore the path to its original condition or better to ensure an even surface for public use. Rotary Peace Park Shoreline Maintenance Project Rotary Peace Park is located at 25 Eleventh Street in the City of Toronto on the north shore of Lake Ontario. This waterfront park features an armourstone headland which provides erosion protection for the shoreline. This headland was identified as being in poor condition through TRCA's Erosion Hazard Monitoring program. TRCA identified that constructing a new armourstone revetment and implementing a stormwater management system would provide long-term erosion protection for the park. Construction began in July 2018 and is anticipated to be completed in late spring 2019. To accommodate this work a portion of the park, including the parking lot and pedestrian trail, have been temporarily closed to the public. As part of the agreement with the City of Toronto, TRCA is responsible for restoring the work area to original conditions or better. Asphalt paving services are required to repair the parking lot and pedestrian trail in order to meet restoration obligations and safely reopen the park to the public. Wilket Creek Rehabilitation Project — Reach 2 For several years TRCA, in partnership with the City of Toronto, has been undertaking extensive restoration work along Wilket Creek in accordance with the Wilket Creek Geomorphic Systems Master Plan. Most recently, TRCA has been implementing works along Reach 2 of the watercourse, located within Wilket Creek Park. This work is being completed in order to protect municipal infrastructure, remove hazardous debris, and to repair or replace existing park amenities. TRCA is responsible for restoring the work area to original conditions or better following the creek rehabilitation works. In order to formally reopen the trail, asphalt paving services are required to restore the path to a state of good repair for use by the community and to enable trail maintenance by City of Toronto Parks staff. RATIONALE A Request for Tender (RFT) for general contractors was publicly advertised on the public procurement website www.biddingo.com on March 15, 2019 and closed on April 3, 2019. A total of nineteen (19) firms downloaded the full document package and seven (7) firms were partial document takers. A mandatory meeting and site tour was held at Wilket Creek Park on March 25, 2019. Three (3) addenda were issued to respond to questions received and to update contract documents. The Procurement Opening Committee opened the Tenders on April 3, 2019 with the following results: Proponent Fee (Plus HST) Diamond Earthworks Corporation $308,750.00 Melrose Paving Limited $318,135.00 Pacific Paving Limited $321,144.00 Tri -Capital Contracting Incorporated $323,810.00 C. Valley Paving Limited $330,783.00 Nationwide Paving Limited $337,416.00 shland Paving Limited $384,502.00 Dig -Con International $485,650.00 Staff reviewed the bid received from Diamond Earthworks Corporation against its own cost estimate and has determined that the bid is of reasonable value and meets the requirements as outlined in the RFT documents. Therefore, it is recommended that contract No. 10020282 be awarded to Diamond Earthworks Corporation at a total cost not to exceed $308,750.00, plus 10% contingency, plus applicable taxes, it being the lowest bid meeting TRCA's specifications. Relationship to Building the Living City, the TRCA 2013-2022 Strategic Plan This report supports the following strategic priorities set forth in the TRCA 2013-2022 Strategic Plan: Strategy 3 — Rethink greenspace to maximize its value The implementation of new or upgraded trails and park infrastructure will ensure the local community has more accessible and safer means to engage with nature. Strategy 4 — Create complete communities that integrate nature and the built environment TRCA's work to remediate and improve erosion control and municipal infrastructure within parklands will allow the public to enjoy these areas to their fullest extent.

Moved by: Mike Mattos Seconded by: Dipika Damerla THAT Contract #10003045 for the completion of detailed designs and Quality Verification Engineering (QVE) services for slope stabilization and drainage works along the face of the slope in Gaffney Park previously awarded to EXP Services Inc. be extended to include an additional twenty-five (25) QVE inspections at a total cost of $18,750.00, plus HST, for a revised total contract amount of $103,700.00, plus HST. CARRIED BACKGROUND The project is located within Gaffney Park, southeast of the intersection of Rockcliffe Boulevard and Terry Drive. The work area extends from the eastern property line of 1 Terry Drive to the western property line of 11A Terry Drive for a length of approximately 90m. The slope is between 10 to 13 metres in height and contains a chain link fence delineating private and public property for the entire length of the Gaffney Park Trail. The upper 4 meters of the slope is located on City of Toronto property while the lower portion of the slope is located in the backyards of the residential properties on Terry Drive. In 2014, the City of Toronto requested TRCA's assistance with the planning, design, and construction of a solution to address the slope failure and erosion concerns occurring at the rear of the properties between 1-11A Terry Drive. The houses are located at the bottom of the slope and failure of the wooden retaining wall and upper slope on City property would likely impact the usability of the rear yards of Terry Drive residents. The project was split up into 3 phases as outlined below. Phase 1 of the project was completed in spring 2016 and included a topographic survey, detailed slope stability assessment, preliminary concepts and public consultation. TRCA hosted two public meetings and was unable to come to a consensus with the residents on an approach that included working on private property to stabilize the slope. As such, a modified approach that was limited to City property was selected as the preferred approach for this project. Phase 2 included retaining a consultant to design the slope stabilization works and subsequent tendering for a contractor to implement the approved design. EXP Services Inc. was retained as the consultant under contract #10003045 at a total cost of $83,650.00, plus a contingency of 10% ($8,365.00). Provisional pricing for QVE and inspections during construction was awarded as part of this contract, but the scope of services required was preliminary as the design and construction schedule still had to be developed. The final detailed designs for slope stabilization and drainage works were received in January 2018. In April 2018, CSL Group Ltd. was retained as the contractor to implement the remedial works under contract #10007289, which was previously approved at the September 28"', 2018 Authority Meeting (#07/18). The Phase 3 scope of work included the preparation and distribution of the Notice of Construction (NOC) to the local Councillor's office and residents, installation of project information signage prior to construction, implementation of the final remedial works by CSL Group Ltd., tendering support and construction oversight services by EXP Services Inc.; and contract management and post -construction surveying by TRCA. RATIONALE Following award of Contract #10007289 to CSL, an updated construction schedule was provided to TRCA that included dividing the work into two phases. The first phase involved the slope stabilization works and the second phase focused on the drainage/stormwater improvements. Upon review of the schedule by TRCA staff and Exp Services Inc., it was determined by TRCA and EXP Services Inc. that the preliminary pricing for QVE services provided during the design RFP stage would be sufficient to cover one of the phases only based on the milestones in CSL's schedule. Exp Services Inc. requested that an additional twenty-five (25) full-time QVE inspections be approved to accommodate the inspection of the drainage/stormwater improvements. As the successful Consultant for Contract #10003045, Exp Services Inc. has prepared the detailed designs for the project and has completed QVE inspections for the slope stabilization component to the satisfaction of TRCA staff. TRCA deemed the quote of $18,750.00, plus HST, for twenty-five (25) additional QVE inspections to be fair and reasonable in comparison to similar projects and based on the scope of work required to complete the tasks. Relationship to Building the Living City, the TRCA 2013-2022 Strategic Plan This report supports the following strategic priority set forth in the TRCA 2013-2022 Strategic Plan: Strategy 7 — Build partnerships and new business models. TRCA has completed similar work on behalf of the City of Toronto multiple times allowing us to demonstrate TRCA's expertise in slope stabilization and stormwater management, thereby increasing TRCA's financial resilience. Strategy 2 — Manage our regional water resources for current and future generations. The proposed works will address existing drainage issues to reduce the risk of future slope failures stemming from severe rainfall events, thereby protecting park infrastructure and the safety of park users from the hazards of erosion. FINANCIAL DETAILS The cost of this project is fully recoverable from the City of Toronto within Account #185-78, and the City of Toronto has provided written approval for this contract extension.

Section III — Items for the Information of the Board BUDGET COMPOSITION Improving Accountability and Transparency of TRCA's Budget Process Educational report regarding Toronto and Region Conservation Authority's (TRCA) budget composition due to potential changes in the Conservation Authorities Act (the Act). Moved by: Jack Heath Seconded by: Gord Highet IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT the Budget Composition report be received. BACKGROUND BUDGET COMPOSITION The financial composition of TRCA has changed substantially since the organization's establishment in 1956. For example, for the year ended December 31, 1968, $928 (all dollar values in this report are in thousands of dollars) of revenues generated by TRCA came directly from the Province ($475 or 51.2%) and partner municipalities ($453 or 48.8%). Over the next 50 years, TRCA leveraged its considerable competitive advantages to increase its annual revenues to $118,643 for the year ended December 31, 2017, primarily with support from its partner municipalities ($72,662 or 61.2%) and generated fees ($38,410 or 32.4°/x). TRCA's fiscal 2017 financial statements are provided as Attachment 1, for reference purposes. Provincial financial support, including grants, in 2017 was $6,944 or 5.9% of the organization's revenues, which is indicative of the funding approach that the Province has taken towards conservation authorities since the mid -1990's, offloading increased financial obligations to partner municipalities. For the year ended December 31, 2017, TRCA's capital budget totaled $72,187 (62.1°/x), while the remaining allotment of $43,982 (37.9%) was attributed to the organization's operating budget. In the current Act, neither operating nor capital expenses are defined. As a result, TRCA adopted a method in which the determination of whether a project or program should be included in the operating or capital budget was based on funding source. As a result of the Province's change in funding methodology for conservation authorities in the 1990's, many of TRCA's programs and related costs are funded by partner municipalities' capital/special benefitting levies, which form a substantial portion of the organization's capital budget. Through TRCA's involvement in the review of the Act in 2017, the following definition has been added, pending Royal Ascent, as follows: I perating expenses " include, (a) salaries, per diems and travel expenses of employees and members of an authority, (b) rent and other office costs, (c) program expenses, (d) costs that are related to the operation or maintenance of a project, but not including the project's capital costs, and (e) such other costs as may be prescribed by regulation; While such a change will not impact how TRCA is funded, it will provide greater transparency to our Board, partner municipalities and stakeholders, regarding the organization's operating budget which is currently understated. Given that the Act is pending Royal Assent, TRCA is yet to change its approach to budgeting for 2019. However, the organization expects approval on the 2019 TRCA budget to be received while the Act review is ongoing. Staff have already commenced the process of amending the budget for 2020 and discussed this matter with staff in its partner municipalities during budget discussions for the previous two fiscal years. OPERATING LEVY (2017 Revenue: $13,928) The purpose of the levy, according to the Act, is to make a conservation authority whole for administrative costs incurred, by allowing each conservation authority to apportion costs to its participating municipalities according to the benefit derived. To determine the benefit derived, TRCA utilizes Current Value Assessment (CVA) data, which is provided to each conservation authority by the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry (MNRF), based on the best available property assessment levels for each partner municipality. Due to varying assessment growth rates throughout the jurisdiction, there are normally marginal changes in the annual allocations when the data is provided, which is normally in the fall for the subsequent fiscal year. TRCA's operating levy is normally broken down into four components: (1) Matching; (2) Non - Matching; (3) Municipal Property Tax Adjustment and (4) Non -CVA Levy. The first, Matching, is a recognition that the first portion of funds received from the CVA calculated operating levy matches funding received from MNRF ($744 in 2018). The second, Non -Matching represents the amount in excess of the matching funding that also adheres to the CVA formula. The third, Municipality Property Tax Adjustment, is a recognition that certain partner municipalities charge TRCA property taxes and rather than use other partner municipalities to pay these fees, the property taxes are charged back to the billing partner municipality. The final component, Non - CVA Levy, is a point of contention which leads into two challenges. The first challenge is that each partner municipality has their own unique budget requirements and pressures and TRCA works with staff/councils to maximize funding opportunities and identify synergies across the jurisdiction, rather than strictly adhering to the CVA formula. Partner municipalities dictate their financial capacity regarding operating levy contributions and TRCA agrees to work within the provided funding envelopes. Given that partner municipalities have always supported a multitude of projects and programs within their jurisdiction, the practice of formally levying an amount in excess of this envelope to cover operating expenses has been frowned on. Since 2011, the Non -CVA Levy has grown from $22 to $647 in 2019 (representing 4.4% of the operating levy). Through conversations with municipal staff throughout the 2019 budget process, it became clear that staff were not aware of the pervasive nature of this issue. A comprehensive budget note (Attachment 2) was provided to the City of Toronto, outlining the matter and proposing a possible resolution. To date there has not been endorsement from staff or council on the matter. The second challenge is that operating funds have been used to subsidize TRCA programming. In 2017, for example, only $7,719 (or 55.4%) of the $13,928 budgeted operating levy was allocated to Corporate Services, with the remainder shared throughout the organization's service areas including Tourism and Recreation ($2,111 or 15.2%), Education and Outreach ($1,741 or 12.5%) and Watershed Studies and Strategies ($1,374 or 9.9%). While the allocation is permissible in accordance with the Act, the usage of levy to subsidize programming has negatively impacted TRCA's ability to fund core services in a financially sustainable manner. TRCA staff propose that operating levy should solely be used to cover core programs and services that are required by regulation, including continuing to support Corporate Services. The creation of the Corporate Services division in March 2018 highlighted that TRCA's internal services have not developed sufficiently to support the wealth of projects and programs provided by the organization, emphasizing the need for additional funding. RELATED CHANGES TO THE ACT This staff assessment is consistent with the recent creation of Section 21.1 (1) of the Act, which notes that there are three categories of programs and services that a conservation authority is required or permitted to provide within its area of jurisdiction, including: 1. Mandatory programs and services that are required by regulation. 2. Municipal programs and services that the authority agrees to provide on behalf of municipalities situated in whole or in part within its area of jurisdiction under a memorandum of understanding 3. Such other programs and services as the authority may determine are advisable to further its objects Further changes to the Act, pending Royal Ascent, provide guidance to conservation authorities on how to establish formal relationships for the second category of programs and services, as publicly available memorandums of understanding are required, to increase transparency of the roles of conservation authorities in their jurisdictions. TRCA supports this amendment, as similar types of agreements are already used with a variety of funding partners, including municipalities. TRCA anticipates using a full cost recovery model for these agreements, in order to recover all direct and indirect costs incurred in providing the specific projects and programs. Regarding the third category, TRCA staff believe that if they are to be offered, they must be self- sustaining on fees from specific funders for the programs and services, rather than utilize levy funds, which appears to be in line with stakeholder's expectations. CAPITAL LEVY (2017 Revenue: $38,292 - Deferred Revenue: $13,317) The purpose of capital levy, according to the Act, is to allow a conservation authority to recover funds required for capital expenditures in connection with any project. In practice, TRCA's capital levy has evolved over the years, based on partner municipality consent to include projects and programs requested by the municipality and those determined by TRCA to further its objects. In order to allocate benefit between the partner municipalities, TRCA utilizes one of three methods: (1) CVA formula, (2) watershed formula (described below), or (3) apportionment of costs to a singular partner municipality, where an entire project or program is to be undertaken within one municipality's jurisdiction. The Watershed formula, introduced in 2017, is based on the number of hectares within each participating municipality. TRCA projects and programs deemed jurisdictionally benefitting to the partner municipalities are funded by this formula. The four major partner municipalities (Durham, Peel, Toronto, and York) participate in this apportionment formula. Partner Municipalities Current Value Assessment (CVA) I Watershed Formula From Province Adjala-Tosorontio City of Toronto Durham Region Mono Peel Region York Region TOTAL CVA Project and Programs • Community Transformation • Greenspace Acquisition • Head Office Project • Information Technology • Major Facilities • Planning and Regulation Policy • Policy Development Review 0.00% 64.30% 2.81% 21.75% 100.00% 0.00% 25.90% 14.50% 0.00% 25.80% 33.80% 100.00% Watershed Projects and Programs • Aquatic Ecosystem Science • Bioregional Seed Crop • Climate - Research and Adaptation • Flood Gauging • Floodline Mapping • Regional Monitoring • Terrestrial Natural Heritage Inventory • Terrestrial Ecosystem Science • Watershed Plan Development and Reporting Under the potential changes to the Act, many of the projects and programs using capital levy funds are defined as category two or three in Section 21.1 (1) of the Act, meaning that TRCA anticipates working with partner municipalities to create Memorandums of Understanding to govern these initiatives. Additionally, TRCA is currently developing an enterprise wide asset management program to inform a consistent approach to planning and decision making for management of the organization's tangible capital assets. This approach to asset management, which is consistent with the approach of partner municipalities, will help determine the prioritization of competing pressures which will guide discussions with stakeholders given limited financial capacity. As of December 31, 2017, TRCA's capital reserves were $1,758 compared to tangible capital assets of $461,869 which provides limited capacity to deal with infrastructure issues as they arise. In potential scenarios in which a partner municipality no longer agrees to fund an existing category two TRCA project or program, TRCA has three options: (1) initiate a Memorandum of Understanding with a different municipality to fill the funding shortfall, (2) find funding opportunities to convert the project or program into a category three offering, or (3) work with the partner municipality on an exit strategy. Additionally, TRCA receives significant funding for contract and other services from partner municipalities that already fit into category two initiatives, which amounted to revenue of $20,442 in 2017, plus an additional $3,259 of deferred revenue for future initiatives. TRCA anticipates category two initiatives will grow substantially once changes to the Act are ratified. AUTHORITY GENERATED REVENUE (2017 Revenue: $38,410 - Deferred Revenue: $14,791) The final area of funding which could be impacted by changes to the Act pertains to authority generated revenue, which has grown to over 30% of TRCA's total income. In Note 8 of the 2017 Financial Statements (Attachment 1) is an overview of how these funds are generated, however there is a sizeable range in activities for which TRCA charges fees to end users, including, but not limited to, permits, admissions and programming. In concurrence with the anticipated change to Section 21.1 noted above, the Province added Section 21.2 on fees for programs and services, pending Royal Ascent, which contains the following pertinent wording: (1) The Minister may determine classes of programs and services in respect of which an authority may charge a fee. (2) The Minister shall publish the list of classes of programs and services in respect of which an authority may charge a fee in a policy document and distribute the document to each authority. (3) If the Minister makes changes to the list of classes of programs and services in respect of which an authority may charge a fee, the Minister shall promptly update the policy document referred to in subsection (2) and distribute the new document to each authority. (4) An authority may charge a fee for a program or service that it provides only if it is set out on the list of classes of programs and services referred to in subsection (2). (5) The amount of a fee charged by an authority for a program or service it provides shall be, (a) the amount prescribed by the regulations; or (b) if no amount is prescribed, the amount determined by the authority At this point in time, it is unclear if any of TRCA's projects or programs would be impacted by this amendment to the Act. TRCA has raised this uncertainty as a potential issue. If TRCA were no longer permitted to charge fees for certain programs or services and a partner municipality still requested TRCA to complete the service within its jurisdiction, a Memorandum of Understanding would be required, along with corresponding funding. Relationship to Building the Living City, the TRCA 2013-2022 Strategic Plan This report supports the following strategy set forth in the TRCA 2013-2022 Strategic Plan: Strategy 9 — Measure performance DETAILS OF WORK TO BE DONE TRCA will work with partner municipalities to develop required agreements and to re -allocate funding appropriately, allowing staff to incorporate all changes within the Act, into reporting as part of the 2020 budget cycle. In preparation for the 2020 budget cycle, TRCA staff have been assessing the projects and programs within TRCA's Service Areas and have provided a detailed report and prestation entitled Budget Composition — Background for your reference (Attachment 3).

TORONTO AND REGION CONSERVATION AUTHORITY Notes to Financial Statements (In thousands of dollars) Year ended December 31, 2017 Toronto and Region Conservation Authority ("TRCA") delivers programs and services that further the conservation, restoration, development and management of natural resources other than gas, oil, coal and minerals. As the largest of the 36 provincial conservation authorities, TRCA's area of jurisdiction spans nine watersheds including those within the City of Toronto and areas in the Regional Municipalities of Durham, Peel and York (including lower tier municipalities), the Township of Adjala-Tosorontio and Town of Mono. TRCA is incorporated under the Conservation Authorities Act, having commenced operations in 1957. TRCA is a registered charity under the Income Tax Act (Canada) and, as such, is exempt from income taxes. 1. Significant accounting policies: The financial statements for TRCA are the responsibility of and prepared by management in accordance with the Chartered Professional Accountants of Canada Public Sector Accounting Handbook, that sets out generally accepted accounting principles for government not-for-profit organizations in Canada. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Canadian Public Sector Accounting Standards ("PSAS"), excluding Sections PS4200 and PS4270, with the following significant accounting policies: (a) Basis of accounting: The financial statements are prepared using an accrual basis of accounting which recognizes the effect of transactions and events in the period in which the transactions and events occur, regardless of whether there has been a receipt or payment of cash or its equivalent. Accrual accounting recognizes a liability until the obligation(s) or condition(s) underlying the liability is partly or wholly satisfied. Accrual accounting recognizes an asset until the future economic benefit underlying the asset is partly or wholly used or lost. (b) Revenue recognition: Government funding including transfers, municipal capital and operating levies, grants, contract services and management fees are recognized in the financial statements when the payments are authorized and all eligibility criteria have been met, except when there is a stipulation that gives rise to an obligation that meets the definition of a liability. In that case, the funding is recorded as deferred revenue and recognized as revenue as the stipulations are met. 5 TORONTO AND REGION CONSERVATION AUTHORITY Notes to Financial Statements (continued) (In thousands of dollars) Year ended December 31, 2017 1. Significant accounting policies (continued): Authority generated revenues including property rental income, contract services, admissions and parking, permits (development, camping, picnic, commercial filming and photography), environmental assessments, programs (education, family and community), events (weddings, festivals and corporate events), athletic fees and equipment rentals, program and event sponsorships, product sales (nursery, food, beverage and merchandise) and membership fees are recognized as revenue in the period in which the related services are performed. Amounts collected for which the related services have not been performed are recorded as deferred revenue and recognized as revenue when the related services are performed. Unrestricted donations are recorded as revenue in the period they are received or receivable, when a reasonable estimate can be made of the amount involved. Externally restricted donations are deferred and recognized as revenue in the year in which the related expenses are recognized. Donated tangible capital assets are recorded at fair market value, when fair market value can be reasonably estimated. (c) Cash: Cash consists of cash on hand, cashable guaranteed investment certificates, and all deposits in banks including interest bearing savings accounts. (d) Investments: Investments, which consist of guaranteed investment certificates, bonds and a portfolio with the One Investment Program, are recorded at cost. Investment income, including interest and dividends, is recognized when earned. Any discount or premium arising on purchase is amortized over the period to maturity. If there is a permanent loss in value, an investment will be written down to recognize the loss. Any write-down would be included in the statement of operations and accumulated surplus. (e) Other assets: Other assets include inventory for resale and prepaid expenses. Merchandise, food and beverage inventory for resale is valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Nursery inventory is valued at the lower of cost and replacement value. Cost is determined on a first -in, first -out basis. Ll TORONTO AND REGION CONSERVATION AUTHORITY Notes to Financial Statements (continued) (In thousands of dollars) Year ended December 31, 2017 1. Significant accounting policies (continued): (f) Tangible capital assets: Tangible capital assets are recorded at cost, which includes amounts directly attributable to acquisition, design, construction development, improvement or betterment of the assets. Costs include overhead directly attributable to construction and development as well as interest costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or construction of the asset. The cost, less the residual value of the tangible capital assets, is amortized on a straight- line basis over the estimated useful lives as follows: Assets Years Infrastructure Buildings and building improvements Land improvements Machinery and equipment Vehicles 25-50 10-55 20-40 5-20 6-25 Tangible capital assets are written down when conditions indicate they are no longer able to contribute to TRCA's ability to provide goods or services, or when the value of future economic benefits associated with the tangible capital assets are less than their net book value. The net write-downs are accounted for as expenses in the statement of operations and accumulated surplus. Contributed tangible capital assets are recorded at fair market value on the date of contribution, except in circumstances where fair market value cannot be reasonably determined, and a nominal value is recorded. TRCA's collection of historical treasures, including artifacts and buildings, and works of art are not recognized in the financial statements. (g) Change in accounting policy: In the current year, TRCA changed the basis of amortization for vehicles from the declining balance method to the straight line method to more accurately reflect their usage (note 6). 7 TORONTO AND REGION CONSERVATION AUTHORITY Notes to Financial Statements (continued) (In thousands of dollars) Year ended December 31, 2017 1. Significant accounting policies (continued): (h) Vacation pay entitlements: Vacation entitlements are accrued for as earned by employees. The liability for the accumulated vacation days represents management's best estimate as to TRCA's future liability. (i) Contaminated sites: Contaminated sites are the result of contamination being introduced in air, soil, water or sediment of a chemical, organic, or radioactive material or live organism that exceed an environmental standard. A liability for remediation of contaminated sites is recognized, net of any expected recoveries, when all of the following criteria are met: (a) an environmental standard exists; (b) contamination exceeds the environmental standard; (c) TRCA is directly responsible or accepts responsibility for the liability; (d) future economic benefits will be given up; and (e) a reasonable estimate of the liability can be made. Changes in this estimate are recorded in TRCA's statement of operations and accumulated surplus. 0) Employee pension plan: The cost of the multi-employer defined benefit pension plan is recognized as the required contributions for employees' services are rendered in the year. (k) Reserves: TRCA internally allocates its accumulated surplus to capital reserves to finance the cost of tangible capital assets, purchases, maintenance and related expenditures and operating reserves in order to ensure funds are available for financial relief in the event of a significant loss of revenues or other financial emergency for which no other source of funding is available. These reserve allocations are directed by the Board of Directors of TRCA. (3 TORONTO AND REGION CONSERVATION AUTHORITY Notes to Financial Statements (continued) (In thousands of dollars) Year ended December 31, 2017 1. Significant accounting policies (continued): (1) Use of estimates: The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of the revenue and expenses during the year. Items requiring the use of significant estimates include allowance for doubtful accounts, accrued liabilities, vacation pay entitlements and tangible capital assets. Estimates are based on the best information available at the time of preparation of the financial statements and are reviewed annually to reflect new information as it becomes available. Measurement uncertainty exists in these financial statements. Actual results could differ from these estimates. 2. Cash - CTC Source Protection Region: The Credit Valley, Toronto and Region and Central Lake Ontario Source Protection Region ("CTC Source Protection Region") was established under the Clean Water Act of Ontario to ensure communities protect their drinking water supplies through prevention - by developing collaborative, watershed based source protection plans that are locally driven and based on science. The CTC Source Protection Region's jurisdiction includes the Credit Valley, Toronto and Region and Central Lake Ontario source protection areas, which are represented by the respective conservation authorities under the Clean Water Act. In the current year, the Ministry of the Environment and Climate Change provided funding of $461 (2016 - $540) for source protection projects to the TRCA, which delivers the management function on behalf of the CTC Source Protection Region. Interest of $8 (2016 - $6) has been imputed on the unspent balance of the funds.

Public sector salary disclosure: TRCA is subject to The Public Sector Salary Disclosure Act, 1996. Salaries and taxable benefits for the 54 employees (2016 - 53 employees) that have been paid by TRCA and reported to the Province of Ontario in compliance with this legislation can be obtained from the Ministry of Finance or upon request from TRCA. 12. Employee pension plan: TRCA makes contributions to the Ontario Municipal Employees Retirement System ("OMERS"), which is a multi-employer pension plan, on behalf of its qualifying full and part- time employees. The plan is a defined benefit plan, which specifies the amount of the retirement benefit to be received by the employees based on the length of service, pension formula and best 60 months of earnings. Employees and employers contribute equally to the plan. As OMERS is a multi-employer defined benefit pension plan, any pension plan surpluses or deficits are a joint responsibility of all eligible organizations and their employees. As a result, TRCA does not recognize any share of the OMERS pension actuarial deficit of $5,403,000 (2016 - $5,720,000), as TRCA's portion of the amount is not determinable. TRCA' current service contributions to the OMERS pension plan in the amount of $4,234 (2016 - $3,923) are included as compensation in the current year. 15 TORONTO AND REGION CONSERVATION AUTHORITY Notes to Financial Statements (continued) (In thousands of dollars) Year ended December 31, 2017 13. The Living City Foundation: The Living City Foundation (the "Foundation") is an independent, non -controlled registered charitable organization which has its own Board of Directors. As such, TRCA's financial statements do not include the activities of the Foundation. In the current year, the Foundation contributed $4,665 (2016 - $1,578) to TRCA programs, which is included as part of authority generated revenue. As at December 31, 2017, the Foundation has an externally restricted fund balance of $3,893 (2016 - $3,532), which is to be used primarily for undertaking TRCA projects, and an operating fund deficit of $103 (2016 - $447). The receivable balance from the Foundation is non-interest bearing, unsecured and has no specified repayment terms. 14. Contingent liabilities and commitments: (a) Legal actions and claims: TRCA has received statements of claim as defendant under various legal actions resulting from its involvement in land purchases, fatalities, personal injuries and flooding on or adjacent to its properties. TRCA maintains insurance coverage against such risks and has notified its insurers of the legal actions and claims. It is not possible at this time to determine the outcome of these claims and, therefore, no provision has been made in these financial statements. (b) Land expropriations: TRCA has completed the acquisition of lands required to undertake various projects which includes acquiring lands under the Expropriations Act. A number of properties required for this Revised Project for the Etobicoke Motel Strip were obtained through expropriation from five owners. Funding was from the City of Etobicoke and the Municipality of Metropolitan Toronto (now collectively known as the City of Toronto) and the Province of Ontario. To date four of the expropriations have been settled and the compensation has been paid. 16 TORONTO AND REGION CONSERVATION AUTHORITY Notes to Financial Statements (continued) (In thousands of dollars) Year ended December 31, 2017 14.

The exact value is determined based on a Current Value Assessment (CVA) formula which uses property assessments to calculate the distribution of the levy, which requires Toronto to pay 64.3% of the total CVA levy as follows: 2019 Total CVA Levy % of CVA Adjala-Tosrontio $ 885 0.01% Durham $ 388,732 2.81% Toronto $ 8,904,221 64.30% Mono $ 1,144 0.01% Peel $ 1,541,082 11.13% York $ 3,012,643 21.75% (Rate- $ 13,848,707 Partner Municipality The issue is that due to budgetary constraints, the City of Toronto has failed to increase its payments in proportion to the other partner municipalities in recent years. TRCA quantifies municipal levy payments in excess of the proportionate CVA calculation as "non -CVA levy' in their budget documents. Since 2011, the non -CVA levy has grown from $21,700 to $643,164, funded by the regions of Durham, Peel and York.

Looking to the next three years, TRCA's partner municipalities are projecting the following operating levy growth (excluding the municipal property tax adjustment): If this projection holds true, the Non -CVA Levy would decrease by $29,931 in the year 2022, however, the issue at hand would remain: Projected 2022 Adjala-Tosrontio Durham Toronto Mono Peel York Total CVA Levy $ 2019 2020 2021 2022 Adjala-Tosrontio 1.72% 3.62% 3.49% 3.48% Durham 2.80% 3.81% 3.80% 3.87% Toronto 3.52% 3.55% 3.54% 3.53% Mono 3.06% 3.50% 3.46% 3.51% Peel 3.69% 3.37% 3.37% 3.36% York 3.10% 2.99% 2.90% 2.82% If this projection holds true, the Non -CVA Levy would decrease by $29,931 in the year 2022, however, the issue at hand would remain: Projected 2022 Adjala-Tosrontio Durham Toronto Mono Peel York Total CVA Levy $ 982 $ 431,507 $ 9,884,011 $ 1,268 $ 1,710,657 $ 3,344,143 $ 15,372,568 % of CVA 0.01% 2.81% $ Non -CVA Levy 79,041 64.30% 0.01% 11.13% $ 352,558 21.75% $ 181,634 $ 613,233 Due to the nature of the CVA Levy formula, the advocated method to eliminate the Non -CVA Levy would be for all of the partner municipalities to align to the Region of Peel's levy funding, which would bring the total CVA Levy to $18,537,421 in the year 2022: Projected 2022 Existing Projection Proposed Levy Additional Funding Adjala-Tosrontio $ 982 $ 1,184 $ 202 Durham $ 510,548 $ 520,438 $ 9,890 Toronto $ 9,884,011 $ 11,921,057 $ 2,037,046 Mono $ 1,268 $ 1,529 $ 261 Peel $ 2,063,215 $ 2,063,215 $ - York $ 3,525,777 $ 4,033,354 $ 507,577 $ 15,985,801 $ 18,540,779 $ 2,554,978 T: 416.661.6600 1 F: 416.661.6898 1 info@trca.on.ca 1 101 Exchange Avenue, Vaughan, ON L4K 5116 1 www.trca.ca QRN Toronto and Region Conservation Authority In order to accomplish this alignment, a Budget Note (BN) request has been made regarding the cost of eliminating the Non -CVA levy by the end of the current term of council in 2022. TRCA proposes the following growth to the City of Toronto's CVA Levy: Toronto Existing Projection Proposed Levy Additional Funding 2019 $8,904,221 $8,904,221 $ - 2020 $9,220,459 $9,904,221 $683,762 2021 $9,546,937 $10,904,221 $1,357,284 2022 $9,884,011 $11,921,057 $2,037,046 Assuming this proposal is approved by City council, the next step will be to work with all of our partner municipalities to develop proposals to achieve the additional annual funding ask by 2022. Further, TRCA will work will our partner municipalities to develop a consistent operating levy strategy to ensure that such an issue does not recur in the future (i.e. Having each partner municipality approve an annual operating levy increase of 3.5% for a period of 4 years to match the term of council). Key Points: TRCA has always taken a pragmatic approach to the apportionment by working with partner municipalities' staff and decision making bodies through their unique budget processes to determine what CVA/Non-CVA levy payments are financially sustainable from their perspectives. TRCA has never levied an amount in excess of this limit, and it is not the organization's intention to start such a practice, however, in working around the City's budgetary constraints, the non -CVA levy has increased by almost 30x in the past 8 years. In order to accommodate our partner municipalities budgets, TRCA has made sacrifices which negatively impacted its operational capacity during a time of substantial growth for the organization. Subsequent to the creation of TRCA's Corporate Services division in March 2018, these matters were brought to City staff through the budget process, with the explanation that the additional operational funding would be crucial to improving service delivery. In assessing its corporate needs, TRCA has determined that an additional $2,500,000 a year, approximately 2.5% of the organization's annual operating budget, in order to procure additional corporate service staffing, enhance technological capabilities and support modernization efforts. This could be achieved fairly for our partner municipalities through the strict enforcement of the CVA levy formula, which would lead to the elimination of the non -CVA levy component.

Moved by: Jack Heath Seconded by: Paul Ainslie IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT the 2018 Fourth Quarter Expenditures Report for the 12 - months ending December 31, be received. CARRIED BACKGROUND As part of TRCA's financial governance procedures, staff are presenting the 2018 Fourth Quarter Expenditures Report, which covers the period January 1, 2018 through to December 31, 2018. RATIONALE TRCA believes in transparency and accountability for its spending, revenue recognition and performance of service delivery objectives against approved budgets, for both the organization and for each project and program as an individual endeavour. This is further supported by TRCA's core values which prioritize accountability of staff to be increasingly responsible for their actions, behaviours and outcomes. TRCA recognizes that all projects and programs offered have cost implications and that all costs incurred are in support of services being practical and affordable. Transparency throughout the budget management process is achieved in part through the analysis and reporting on year to date revenues/expenses as compared to the current fiscal year budget. Relationship to Building the Living City, the TRCA 2013-2022 Strategic Plan This report supports the following strategy set forth in the TRCA 2013-2022 Strategic Plan: Strategy 9 — Measure performance FINANCIAL DETAILS The operating and capital expenditures by Service Area and underlying Program Area are provided in Attachments 1 and 2, respectively. The tables provide a summary analysis of expenditures to date and the variance explanations by Program Area which have a variance threshold of +/- 10% and $50,000 from budgeted expenditures. Variances below these thresholds are deemed to be within the expected range. The capital expenditures presented include the costs that are capitalized as tangible capital assets in the year-end financial statements. These costs are capitalized or removed from expenditures at year end as part of the annual audited financial statements.

TRCA incurred higher than anticipated expenditures of $375, relating to Rouge Park restoration projects, which due to the organization's expertise and capacity were executed un an interim management agreement with Parks Canada. This was offset by lower than anticipated expenditures of $68 relating to the delay in the fill project at Brock North and higher than anticipated recoveries of $106 relating to TRCA's terrestrial planting program. Once these explanations are considered, the variance falls within the expected range. B Staff gapping, primarily to archeology, resulted in lower than anticipated expenditures of $232. Once this explanation is considered, the variance falls within the expected range. C The delay in the transfer of Rouge Park lands resulted in higher than anticipated expenditures of $722, as TRCA continued to manage the portfolio throughout the year. Once this explanation is considered, the variance falls within the expected range. D The 2018 operating season for the golf course was five weeks shorter than budgeted, as the facility opened three weeks later and closed two weeks earlier than anticipated due to weather. This resulted in lower than anticipated expenditures of $202. Once this explanation is considered, the variance falls within the expected range. E This variance impacting these two program areas is due to account allocations associated with the finalization of the bypeterandpauls.com contract for wedding and event bookings (The increase in Events and Festivals is mirrored by the decrease to Wedding and Corporate Events). The net impact of the change in accounts is $68 or 1 %, and as such, the variance falls within the expected range. F Staff gapping resulted in lower than anticipated expenditures of $590. Once this explanation is considered, the variance falls within the expected range. G Staff gapping resulted in lower than anticipated expenditures of $77. Once this explanation is considered, the variance falls within the expected range. H The event expenditures associated with Paddle the Don were unintentionally excluded from the 2018 budget and as such, resulted in higher than anticipated expenditures of $64. Once this explanation is considered, the variance falls within the expected range. Staff gapping resulted in lower than anticipated expenditures of $522. Once this explanation is considered, the variance falls within the expected range. J TRCA staff adjusted the cost recovery model for the vehicle and equipment portfolio during 2019, to better reflect full cost recovery including state of good repair expenditures. This will allow the organization to better recover ongoing costs from projects and programs and potentially accommodate emergency purchases. On an annual basis, TRCA will continue to budget breaking even, as a conservative estimate, however, it is anticipated that net positive recoveries (revenues) will be generated from this endeavour.

The KPIs project required additional input from the Region of Peel and will be initiated in the second quarter of 2019. Once this explanation is considered, the variance is considered, the program area unexplained variance is 5%, which falls within the expected range. C There are two primary variances impacting the spend rate. The Brampton Riverwalk Environmental Assessment (EA) project is $567 under budget due to the original scope of work budgeted as an Individual EA however was refined in -year to a Municipal EA which resulted in significant cost savings - Currently the project is on time and is meeting all required deliverables. Once these explanations are considered, the variance falls within the expected range. Regarding the Broadview Easter EA project, $418 of expenditures were budgeted within this program area, but were actually incurred within Erosion Management. Once these explanations are considered, the variance falls within the expected range. D There are two primary variances impacting the spend rate. Due to the high cost of land and lack of available matching funding, TRCA's spending related to the Greenspace Acquisition Plan was lower than anticipated by $1,461 — Currently only 13% of the five-year (2016-2020) plan has been achieved. Offsetting these savings were higher than anticipated expenditures of $376, relating to unbudgeted costs associated with $2 land acquisitions. Once these explanations are considered, the variance falls within the expected range. E There are three primary variances impacting the spend rate. Work was delayed City of Toronto fee for service work due to scoping delay projects, such as the Chorley Park Switchback Trail, which resulted in lower than anticipated expenditures of $1,129. The Albion Hills Master Plan was delayed due to weather and site access issues during the dam decommissioning, in conjunction with a change of scope to manage an excess of onsite water, which resulted in lower than anticipated expenditures of $213. Phase 2 of the Richard Whitehead Trail was delayed as a result of permitting issues and the requirement for additional designs, which resulted in lower than anticipated expenditures of $91. Once these explanations are considered, the variance falls within the expected range. F There are two primary variances impacting the spend rate, both of which relate to two projects proceeding faster than anticipated during the 2018 budget process. Advancement of the Rotary Park and Lakeview Waterfront Connection projects led to higher than anticipated expenditures of $881 and $300 respectively. Once these explanations are considered, the variance falls within the expected range. G There are four primary variances impacting the spend rate, pertaining to project delays. The Scarborough Bluffs West EA, in partnership with the City of Toronto, remains under review and resulted in lower than anticipated expenditures of $552. Indian Line capital projects were not fully scoped and experienced delays resulted in lower than anticipated expenditures of $197. The Glen Haffy high voltage electrical system replacement was delayed at the approvals stage which resulted in lower than anticipated expenditures of $100. The Heart Lake electronic gates and turnstiles project was delayed as a result of winter weather conditions, which resulted in lower than anticipated expenditures of $95. Once these explanations are considered, the variance falls within the expected range. H There are two primary variances impacting the spend rate. The Claireville Trail is underspent by $748 due to the delay related to ongoing permitting issues and negotiations for a memorandum of understanding for the work, which staff anticipate will be completed in 2019. Further, the East Don EA project is underspent by $603, due to the delay related to awaiting approvals and an agreement with Metrolinx. Once these explanations are considered, the variance falls within the expected range. The ongoing refinement of the Meadoway budget and scope of work resulted in higher than anticipated expenditures of $71, relating to ensuring all planning and regulatory requirements were met in order to proceed with planned implementation. Once this explanation is considered, the variance falls within the expected range. J Site plan approvals relating to the Bolton Camp site were delayed, resulting in lower than anticipated expenditures of $6,282. The approvals are expected to be issued by the Town of Caledon in 2019, with the infrastructure works to be undertaken immediately, in partnership with the Region of Peel. Once this explanation is considered, the variance falls within the expected range. K The ongoing refinement of the Meadoway budget and scope of work resulted in lower than anticipated expenditures of $251. Once this explanation is considered, the variance falls within the expected range. L TRCA head office project spending was higher than anticipated by $420. Once this explanation is considered, the variance falls within the expected range. M TRCA's decision to defer planned cloud related infrastructure migration until future years resulted in lower than anticipated expenditures of $233. Once this explanation is considered, the variance falls within the expected range. N TRCA staff adjusted the cost recovery model for its staffing and vehicle and equipment portfolio during 2019, to better reflect full cost recovery including all direct costs associated with the staff compliment and state of good repair expenditures, resulting in higher than anticipated recoveries. This improved model will allow the organization to better recover ongoing costs from projects and programs and potentially accommodate emergency purchases, by helping to develop a reserve. On an annual basis, TRCA will continue to budget breaking even, as a conservative estimate, however, it is anticipated that net positive recoveries (revenues) will be generated from this endeavour.

CBC News - Posted: Jan 18, 2019 4:00 AM ET I Last Updated: January 18 We're all afraid of slipping and falling, especially in winter, so it's not uncommon to see carpets of salt on Canadian sidewalks and roads this time of year. But what's the effect on the environment? Our bodies need salt, but there is a difference between the stuff we sprinkle in food and what we put on the roads. They're both sodium chloride, but table salt includes healthy additives like iodine, which deters goiters. The problem with rock salt (a.k.a. road salt) is that it contains chloride ions, which can have negative effects on ecosystems because once these ions seep into our environment, there's no way to dilute them and they continue to build up.

The federal agency reconsidered an earlier choice to combine its spot for welcoming park visitors in Scarborough with one serving a similar function for the zoo. Conservationists and members of the Toronto and Region Conservation Authority (TRCA) board said the new location east of Meadowvale Road is a big improvement Putting the building, also intended as a showcase for the national park system, in the 1,000 -space main lot "was just a mistake on so many levels," TRCA board member Glenn De Baeremaeker told the authority's Feb. 22 meeting. "You would look out at a vista of a sea of automobiles," instead of the park's natural scenery, said De Baeremaeker, a former Scarborough councillor, adding park visitors would compete in summer for parking with zoo visitors.

In a report presented to Toronto's budget commit- tee, TRCA Is requesting a 3.6 per cent increase in its 2019 operating budget to support its service levels. This would put the ciWs support of TRCAs operating budget at $8.9- mihon and its cart Lal funding at $21.6 -million. Primarily funded by municipal governments, TRCA receives operating levies from the regions of Durham, Peel, York, the City of Toronto, as well as the Town of Mono and Adjala-Tosorontio. The exact value Is determined based on a Current Value Assessment (CVA) formula that uses property assessments W calculate the distribution of Rachael WNBiams the levy, which requires Toronto to pay 64.3 per cent of the total CVA levy. The problem is that due to budgetary constraints, the City of Toronto has failed to increase its payments in proportion to the other partner municipalities in recent years. Since 2011, this amount has grown from $21,700 to $643,164, funded by the regions of Durham, Peel and York TRCA calls this the non - CVA levy. "Every year that Toronto holds budgetary growth at o per cent the non -CVA levy increases, due to the essence of the funding calculation" said TRCAs chief financial and operating officer Michael Tolensky. As a priority action, we continue to work with City (of Toronto) staff and council W increase support ofoperational funding, to help improve our service capacity" In 2018, operating contributions included $539,120 (3.7 per cent) from Durham, $1.85 -million (12.9 per cent) from Peel, $3.3-milhon (23.2 per cent) from York and $8.6-mWion (60 per cent) from the City of Toronto. The TRCA also receives funding from the provincial and federal governments through the development approvals process and educational programming. "In a given year, Toronto may hold us at 0 per cent, Durham at 2 per cent, York at 1 per cent and Peel at 3 per cent, which doesift lend itself easily to the CVA formula" he said. As our largest municipality, we are working with the City (of Toronto) to try and leverage additional CVA levy funding between our partner municipalities." But according to the budget report, there is $187.67-miWon in state -of - good -repair maintenance needed to maintain assets, including waterfront erosion control structures, environmental rehabilitation, CONIIflan ni t i BUDGETARY CONSTRAINTS CONTINUED FA ON RASE I watershed monitoring and management, and facilities retrofit. TRCA also has an unmet needs list valued at over $343 -million, which includes $172 -million for the Scarborough Waterfront project. This project would create a system of greenspaces along the Lake Ontario shore- line between Bluffer's Park and East Point Park! Highland Crwkwhile mitigating the risk of slope failure at the Scarborough Bluffs. "We are wiitingon the approvals from province. What I'd like to see is that we have a funding plan in place so OR soon as the approval comes, we can release the funds and get started; said Ward 25 Scarborough -Rouge Park councillor Jennifer McKelvie. McKelvie acknowledged the citys fiscal constraints, which includes a prediction from former city manager Peter Wallace that the city would be facing a $142 billion budget gap by 2023. City council has also committed to funding bold initiatives like the Poverty Reduction Strategy, Youth Equity Strategy and TransformTO, but continues to fall short on its commitments. "I really do believe that people are part of the environment and we need to find the right balance between funding for initiatives like the poverty reduction strategy and the youth equity strategy," noted McKelvie. "I just think this is a good time for the City of Toronto to show leadership in environmental protection and action on climate change." Strategic communications coordinator Jane Arbour referred NRUto departmental reports which outline the city's commitment to funding climate change initiatives. This includes advancing low -carbon and renewable thermal energy networks, expanding energy retrofits in three cfty- owned buildings, greening the city fleets and implementation of the Port Lands net -zero energy plan. Toronto Environmental Alliance campaigns director Heather Marshall credited the city with moving forward on these files and reducing its greenhouse gas emissions by 33 per cent since 2016. But she said the city needs to explore alternative financing models in order to follow-through with its long-term environmental commitments. "Whether yourelooking at TRCA funding or whether you're looking at funding for forestry, or you're looking at funding for the waste strategy or climate strategy, one thing [hats a common trend in our city is that the City of Toronto dearly needs to find new ways to finance strategies, said Marshall. Speaking specifically about TransformTO, Marshall said the city has fallen short on its commitments, dedicating a total of $5.4 -million instead of the anticipated $7.8 -million that council approved in July 2017. "So essentially by the end of 2020, they were supposed to cumulativelyhave spent almost $24 million on TransfornI implementation. Now, they're on a trajectory where they're only going to spend about $15.5 -million by the end of 2020" Marshall recommended the cityplace small surcharges on billion -dollar businesses to be used for climate change initiatives, a strategy used in Portland, Oregon. She also said the city should revisit a stormwater chargeto incept property owners to invest in low impact development stormwater management planning, such as rainwater harvesting and collection or green roofs. "There are lots of really exciting opportunities out there for sites to tackle storm - water and wastewater but if we don't send cost signals about the true cost of cleaning up and managing those types of water pollution and waste water, we wit many expect anything but business as usual; she said. The city budget is expected to be approved March 7. * just think this is a good time for the City of Toronto to show leadership in environmental protection and action on climate change. - Jennifer WKeMe FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 0, 2019 WOVE RES ORB IS IORORTO 7 0 RES.#B49/19 - TORONTO WILDLIFE CENTRE AND MENNO-REESOR RESTORATION PROJECT Update on the Toronto Wildlife Centre Project and the Menno-Reesor Restoration Project. Moved by: Jack Heath Seconded by: Paul Ainslie THAT the staff report regarding the update on the Toronto Wildlife Centre and the Menno- Reesor Restoration Project located at 6461 Steeles Avenue East, City of Toronto, be received. CARRIED BACKGROUND At Executive Committee Meeting #3/19, held on April 5, 2019, Resolution #832/19 was approved as follows: THAT staff provide a report on the status of the Toronto Wildlife Project at the May 3, 2019 meeting of the Executive Committee.

City of Toronto Council on February 12, 2018, adopted the following: 94. approve the 2018 Budget Committee Recommended Capital Budget for Toronto and Region Conservation Authority with a total project cost of $31.163 million, and 2018 cash flow of $19.830 million and future year commitments of $11.333 million composed, in part, of the following: 96. City Council direct that the one-time 2018-2019 project titled "Menno-Reesor Restoration Project" to deliver high-quality habitat restoration, grading, fencing, access and landscaping work and planting of 100,000 trees at the 27 hectares site formerly known as the Runnymede site, be funded by $3.5 million from the Tree Canopy Reserve (XR1220). City Council on July 23, 2018, adopted the following: 1. City Council include restoration of the heritage barn and home at 6461 Steeles Avenue East, as part of the already approved 2018 Council Toronto and Region Conservation Authority capital budget allocation for the restoration project. City Council on January 30, 2019, adopted the following: 1. City Council request the Toronto and Region Conservation Authority to provide a grant to the Toronto Wildlife Centre that will allow the Toronto Wildlife Centre to produce architectural drawings and other work and reports necessary to facilitate the urgent repair of the heritage barn and home at 6461 Steeles Avenue East, as well as move to set up the portable donated by the Toronto and Region Conservation Authority from its current location at 5 Shoreham Drive, to its new location on the 6461 Steeles Avenue site, as part of the already approved Toronto Council restoration plan. 2. City Council direct that funding for this initiative come from the previously Council approved $3.5 million budget for the 6461 Steeles Avenue East restoration project, up to a maximum of $450, 000, subject to approval from the Chief Financial and Operating Officer, Toronto and Region Conservation Authority, for a zero impact on the City of Toronto Capital Budget. Attachment 1 is a sketch illustrating the location of the subject lands. Attachment 2 is an orthophoto illustrating the location of the subject lands. Funding TRCA staff has had numerous discussions over the last two years with staff in our partner municipalities. However, Toronto Wildlife Centre (TWC) has not to date been confirmed as a funding priority for our partner municipalities. TWC is continuing its efforts to raise funds for the new facility through its own means. Lease and Ownership Currently the subject property is part of the approximately 5,600 acres of TRCA-owned land included in a Memorandum of Agreement Respecting the Assembly of Lands for the Proposed Rouge National Urban Park. The transfer of the subject parcel is on hold pending resolution of the outstanding issues relating to the new Toronto Wildlife Centre facility. TRCA staff are currently in lease negotiations with TWC and Parks Canada. Zoning Amendment City of Toronto Council on March 27, 2019, amended Schedule 'A', to the Upper Rouge Hillside Community Zoning By-law No. 25278 which includes 6461 Steeles Avenue East by adding the following uses to the Agricultural Uses Zone (AG): Animal Shelter, Veterinary Hospital associated with an animal shelter, Intern Residence associated with an animal shelter and/or veterinary hospital and/or wildlife centre, Wildlife Centre, Educational uses associated with an animal shelter and/or veterinary hospital and/or wildlife centre. Before introducing the necessary Bills to City of Toronto Council for enactment of the zoning amendment, TWC needs to submit a revised Functional Site Servicing Report, to the satisfaction of the City of Toronto's Chief Engineer and Executive Director, Engineering and Construction Services and TRCA, confirming that the private servicing system arrangements necessary to support the proposed development are being provided. Temporary Facility TWC's current lease at Downsview Park ends on December 31, 2019 and as such, TWC is investigating temporary facilities for their operation until the new facility is completed. One of the options under review was moving the existing portable building from TRCA's 5 Shoreham Drive site to the new site. A detail assessment of the portable building by TWC and TRCA staff has uncovered the presence of mould and potential structural issues. Given the age of the building and the cost to upgrade the building to comply with the current building code, it has been determined that moving the portable building is not a viable option. TWC and TRCA staff are currently reviewing other options for a temporary facility for TWC. Menno-Reesor Restoration Project In early 2019, TRCA staff commenced the following efforts to improve ecosystem health of the 27 -hectare property. Site hydrology has been restored by removing existing tile drains and returning more natural surficial water flows through bioswales and wetlands. Hydrological and topographical improvements have created conditions that will allow for the increase of forest cover by planting approximately 43,000 trees and shrubs over the next two years. Planting communities will change throughout the site to represent the different forest communities commonly found throughout the Rouge National Urban Park natural heritage system. Habitat structures such as log tangles, boulder piles, hedgerows and bird boxes will also be installed throughout the site to create essential wildlife habitat opportunities. This includes increasing habitat for species at risk such as barn swallows and bats. TRCA staff has also initiated works to bring the existing farmhouse and barn to a state -of -good - repair condition. A consultant has been retained to complete a comprehensive survey of designated substances within the farmhouse and barn to identify the level of remediation required. Once the survey has been completed, the abatement and demolition of the farmhouse and barn interior will be undertaken. These works will be followed by a structural assessment of the buildings, interior detailed design and subsequent renovation works.
