displacing existing tenants, and subsequently raising rents which
affects those generally identified as lower income earners and
their ability to find safe, adequate and affordable housing; and,
WHEREAS citizens and communities are hurt by these practices
which can and does directly impact the housing and
homelessness crisis, as well as inflict damage and trauma (both
financially and mentally) particularly on our most vulnerable
citizens;

the Province of Ontario to take additional and meaningful steps to
address the ever increasing problem of "Renovictions"; and
further;

DATE OF REPORT: October 6, 2021
REPORT NO.: INS-7-21
SUBJECT: Agreement for Maintenance Services on Regional Roads
RECOMMENDATION:
That the Mayor and Clerk be authorized to execute the Agreement for Maintenance Services with
the Region of Waterloo for the provision of summer and winter maintenance services on selected
Regional roads within the City of Kitchener, as outlined in the Infrastructure Services Department
report INS -7-21 following Regional Council approval, expected to be granted on October 20, 2021,
said documentation to be to the satisfaction of the City Solicitor; and further,
That the Operations — Roads & Traffic staff complement be increased by seven (7) full-time
equivalents at zero impact to the City of Kitchener's tax base pursuant to the terms of the
agreement between the City of Kitchener and the Region of Waterloo.
BACKGROUND:
Since the formation of the Region of Waterloo in 1973, the City of Kitchener has provided maintenance
of Regional roads within the City of Kitchener, via an agreement with the Region through which residents
benefit from more seamless and efficient service delivery. The establishment of the agreement with the
Region is consistent with practices employed by the cities of Cambridge and Waterloo. The term of the
current agreement between Kitchener and the Region runs from January 1, 2021 until December 31,
2021; as agreed to by Council per staff report INS -20-007 dated July 8, 2020.
REPORT:
The rationale for City forces to continue to provide cores services on Regional roads through an
agreement with the Region has been long standing. As such, staff have been working with the Region,
in collaboration with area municipalities to establish a new agreement to be in place beyond December
2021.

Page 8 of 42
Through two staff reports, INS -19-061 and INS -20-007, the existing agreement has been extended due
to several factors; including the decision to extend the agreement for a 1 -year period in 2019 to gather
real data to understand the impacts on services with the operational ization of the ION and then an
additional year when negotiation talks were paused in March 2020 as all municipalities turned focus to
emergency response related to the pandemic. The current agreement expires on December 31, 2021.
Negotiations recommenced in fall of 2020 and staff from the Region and the area municipalities have met
regularly since. Negotiations were conducted to establish a mutually suitable agreement between the
Region and the individual cities for a 5 -year period from January 1, 2022 to December 31, 2026. While
each municipality enters into a separate agreement with the Region, the basis of the agreement remains
virtually identical, with each individual municipality establishing base amounts to provide specific
maintenance activities on the Regional roads lying within their respective boundaries. Base amounts are
established as a minimum value of the agreement and to allow both parties to establish fiscal budgets.
Scope of Agreement
Maintenance activities included in the existing agreement remain generally unchanged under this new
agreement and generally includes the following:
• Road patrol
• Surface asphalt maintenance
• Shoulder maintenance
• Street sweeping
• Spring cleanup (litter pick up)
• Right of way drainage including catch basin and maintenance hole maintenance
• Leaf pickup and disposal
• Winter snow and ice control
• Emergency response (e.g., accidents, washouts, spills, tree damage, debris, etc.)
• Preventative maintenance agreed to by the Region, paid as extras to the contract on a time and
material basis.
Key Differences Between Current and New Agreement
In previous contracts, base amounts were split into two types of activities: winter maintenance activities
and summer maintenance activities. Winter billings were done on a time and materials basis, with a 65%
minimum standby charge during the months of November to March with a "baseline" cost established.
The 65% standby represents compensation for additional resources (i.e., staff and equipment) the city
only has to support our obligations to the Region under the agreement. The current agreement includes
the provision that any costs exceeding the 100 percent baseline cost, up to 105 percent of the baseline
cost, are borne solely by the Cities and any costs exceeding 105 percent baseline cost, are borne by the
Region.
In the summer months (April to October), the billings were fixed and based on the lump sum budgets
established and agreed upon when the contract originated; adjusted yearly with annual inflation.
There were many items that crossed into both seasons (example — potholes, road patrol) so a portion of
the costs were captured via winter actual billings and a portion was covered in the summer lump sum.
Page 9 of 42
All parties agree the methodology of costs being in grouped into seasonal activities termed "winter" and
"summer' is confusing and does not align with how the work is performed over the course of a year.
The new agreement establishes three categories of costs:
• Winter— this will represent purely winter costs for snow and ice control, including plowing, salting,
sanding, snow fence, loading, and winter road patrol. Winter costs are billed based on actuals
and will still include 65% standby however the provision for Cities to be responsible for costs
between 100% to 105% of baseline has been removed.
• Lump Sum — these activities are considered routine in nature and do not have large variability
year to year. A lump sum amount can be established and billed over a 12 -month period. This
includes sweeping, debris pickup, routine road patrol and supervision charges.
• Time and Material — these activities take place over the course of 12 months but have more
variability and uncertainty and therefore will be billed based on actuals. A base amount will be
established as part of the contract for budgeting purposes. These activities include pothole
repairs, gravel shoulder maintenance, sewer maintenance, emergency response and operating
costs for the Snow Storage and Disposal Facility (SSDF).
The contract amount has increased beyond inflationary increases from the previous contract amount,
mainly due to the following factors:
• Growth in Regional infrastructure now requiring maintenance; including a 375% increase in lane
km requiring shoulder maintenance and 10% increase in lane km now requiring year-round
maintenance previously only requiring only winter maintenance.
• Changes to the Minimum Maintenance Standards in 2018, which include more stringent
requirements for the winter maintenance of bike lanes, has also increased the requirements to
clear all 74 km of bike lanes on Regional roads and load snow from 14.6 km of bike lanes on
Regional roads;
• Recently constructed cycling facilities, such as raised cycle tracks and separated facilities,
require additional maintenance and in some cases, specialized equipment;
• the operational ization of the SSDF and cost allocation for storage/disposal of snow from Regional
roads; and,
• ION becoming operationalized since the completion of the last agreement and specialized
requirements to maintain the 10.5 km of roadways adjacent to the ION rapid way. In particular,
the need for snow loading (removing snow from these roadways and disposing at the SSDF) has
increased significantly along these roadways due to the lack of space for storing snow which
results in the need to lift snow after almost every snow fall.
In order to fulfill the City's obligations under this agreement and support service level delivery, an
additional full time equivalent (FTE) complement of seven (7) staff are required.
Region of Waterloo staff has reviewed the revised contract amounts, have scrutinized, and accepted the
values; and have agreed to fund the staff resource requirements with no budgetary impact to the city's
operational budget. The proposed agreement was approved by the Region's Committee of the Whole on
October 12, 2021 with final ratification by Regional Council expected on October 20, 2021.
Page 10 of 42
ALIGNMENT WITH CITY OF KITCHENER STRATEGIC PLAN:
The recommendation of this report supports the achievement of the city's strategic vision through the
delivery of core service.
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS:
The 2022 contract amount for winter and summer maintenance to the City of Kitchener is $4,165,510.
This amount will be adjusted annually by inflation and by any additional lane kilometer in accordance with
the terms and conditions identified in the agreement.
It is important to note this contract is setup on a cost recovery basis so any increase in revenue is the
result of increases in anticipated expenses.
Funding for additional staff resources comprises a portion of the contract amount and is fully funded
within the City of Kitchener's 2022 proposed operating budgets resulting in zero impact to the tax base
for these additional staff.
COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT:
INFORM — This report has been posted to the City's website with the agenda in advance of the council /
committee meeting.

4.0 Description of the Work Area
The work area that the Local Municipality shall be responsible for maintaining as described in
Schedule "B", Description of Work attached hereto (the "Work Area"). Each roadways limits, its
centerline distance, lane mileage and cycle lane mileage is shown.
For the purpose of this Agreement, every road under the jurisdiction of the Region of Waterloo has
been classified according to the Ontario Regulation 239/02 or any supplemental or successor
regulation. For greater clarity, the average annual daily traffic counts will be measured by the
Regional Traffic Engineering department and used in conjunction with posted speed limits to quantify
associated road class. It shall be the responsibility of the Region to ensure that the Local Municipality
has accurate information regarding the road classification for the Regional Roads. Road class
information for each Regional Road segment will be provided to the Local Municipality electronically
through a shared GIS platform.
For greater certainty, a maintenance lane calculation represents a length of a roadway section that is
to be maintained. A Maintenance Lane Length is calculated by the following formula:
Number of maintenance lanes x Length of road section = Maintenance lane length
A lane of any width is determined to be a maintenance lane if it meets the following criteria for the entire
length of a section of road (block to block)
- A continuous marked traveled lane
- Back to back marked left/right turn lane
- Marked left or right turn lane
- Marked gore areas equivalent to at least a standard lane width
A bike lane calculation represents a length of bike facility (bike lane or paved shoulder) that is to be
maintained. A bike lane length is calculated by the following formula
Width of bike lane x 2
Length of bike lane x Bike lane length
3.65

Schedule "A"
Quality Standards & Maintenance Activities
On or around April 1St of each year as part of the Annual Inspection, it is expected that the Local
Municipality will make proposals in an "Annual Maintenance Needs Report" to the Region, for work of
a "Preventive Maintenance" nature. `Preventive Maintenance' is generally described as that which
preserves the infrastructure and typically includes such things as minor drainage improvements,
shouldering, rout and seal cracks, chip seals, and hot mix patching. The Region may engage the
services of the Local Municipality to carry out some or all of this work, on a negotiated basis depending
on the expertise required and availability of funding.
1.0 Routine Maintenance Activities Included
The following activities in conjunction with Regional Quality Standards will be done on a year round
routine basis:
a) Hot / Cold mix patching: Shall include the minor repair of paved road and cycle lane
surfaces (excluding curb, gutter, and concrete boulevard apron) in accordance with the
requirements set in Ontario Regulation 239/02 or current. Patching is to provide a smooth
safe riding surface, eliminate hazards to users, and protect the investment in the asphalt
surface. Materials used may include pre -mixed hot asphalt, spray patch, cold mix, or any
type of bituminous base roadway patching product. Materials are placed primarily with
hand tools and roller but shall also include allowance for surface grinding asphalt and
replacement using a machine spreader and removal of grindings.
The Region agrees to maintain the annual Spot Resurfacing Program upon Regional
council approval. During the annual road inspections, the Agreement Administrator shall
complete a review of the asphalt conditions and, in conjunction with the Local Municipality
representative, shall compile a list of hot mix repair locations to be included in the annual
Spot Repair Program. Region's engineering staff will review the identified spot repair
locations with the Agreement Administrator. It is understood that the Region will make
every attempt to complete the requested repairs within budgetary guidelines. The
Agreement Administrator shall also determine in conjunction with the city representative if
there are any roads that are beyond reasonable maintenance condition. If a roadway is
determined to be in such condition, the Agreement Administrator shall forward these
concerns to the Region's Transportation Operations Manager for review.
b) Shoulder Maintenance and Repair: Shall include the repair of gravel and asphalt
shoulders in accordance with the requirements set in Ontario Regulation 239/02 or current.
Shouldering is to provide a smooth surface for emergency stopping of vehicles,
pedestrians, cyclists, and slow moving vehicles. Washouts, ruts, potholes, and drop offs
shall be repaired with appropriate material and reinstated to the proper crossfall. Shall
also include the routine grading windrow reclamation, and placement of additional granular
material to maintain proper crossfall, laterally support the asphalt structure, control dusty
conditions, and maintain drainage from the roadway to ditch line. Excessively dusty
