REPORT: Staff has been approached by representatives of the Waterloo Region District School Board, the owner of 130 Woodbine Avenue (see Appendix A}, requesting to purchase a small portion of Parkvale Park (see Appendix B} "the "Lands" to facilitate an egress driveway from their future school site. Due to the limitations of the school site, this egress driveway proposed on the Lands would allow safe vehicular circulation through the school site. The request was reviewed by the City's Site Plan team including traffic, operations, engineering and planning. Using these lands as an egress route for the future elementary school would provide improved circulation within their site, thereby increasing public safety. 10-1 Currently, there is a paved pathway on the Lands which functions as an overland flood route and an utility easement. Severing off a portion of the parkland for this purpose would not impact the function or enjoyment of Parkvale Park. FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS: The Waterloo Region District School Board will be responsible for all associated costs involved with the purchase of the Lands. The value of Lands will be determined through the City's Real Estate Service provider.
