Encroachment Request: Rogers Communication installation at
Morrison Park
"Subject to staff approval, that the Mayor and Clerk be authorized to execute an
Encroachment Agreement, satisfactory to the City Solicitor, with Rogers
Communications Inc. for the installation of approximately 200 metres of conduit
containing fibre optic cable running under Morrison Park."
BACKGROUND:
Rogers Communications Inc. approached the City of Kitchener for permission to enter
into parklands and install a fibre optic cable. This cable will be connected to existing
infrastructure already installed and owned by Rogers in the area.
REPORT:
Rogers Communications Inc. would like to install fibre optic cable which will encroach on
City parklands, being installed within the boundaries of Morrison Park, in the areas
between Oneida Street and Wydacotte Court. The location of the proposed fibre optic
cable would run between 2.8 and 3.7 metres inside of the property line, and would have
a minimum depth cover of 0.8 metres, as is standard to gain Municipal Consent. Any
digging to be performed within 1 metre of existing underground services will be done by
hand. All lands are to be restored to the specifications of the City upon the completion of
this work.
Rogers has provided drawings of their construction plans; these are currently being
circulated to City Staff for their comments based on their areas of expertise. A copy of the
drawing that pertains to the area in question is attached to this report as Schedule "A", as
well as a copy of the Municipal Consent Submission Form as Schedule "B". Please note
that this Submission Form is for the totality of Rogers' proposed work, some of which is
beyond the scope of this potential encroachment agreement. Rogers has already

received consent from Engineering for their plans in the areas that do not encroach on
City parklands.
ALIGNMENT WITH CITY OF KITCHENER STRATEGIC PLAN:

All fees associated with encroachments will be paid by the applicant. The Application fee
of $285.61 has been paid. A processing fee of $240 will become payable after Staff and
Council approval. A minimum parklands encroachment fee of $318 per year will also be
applicable should Staff and Council approve this encroachment.
