Zehr and with all members present except Councillor J. Smola. Notice of this special meeting had been previously given to all members of Council by the City Clerk pursuant to Chapter 25 (Council Procedure) of the Municipal Code. Strategic Planning Session C. Ladd, Chief Administrative Officer, advised that this strategic planning session is part of a series of meetings to allow discussion on various strategic initiatives and directions being taken by the City. P. Houston, General Manager of Financial Services & City Treasurer, provided a brief review of the operating budget process and advised that staff were striving to hit the target of 4.89% increase in the operating budget as per the direction given by Council in June, 2004. Ms. Houston further advised the 4.89% increase is made up of a 3% general inflation and 1.89% based on the City's costs over and above inflation. Councillor Lorentz suggested that historically the City has used the Consumer Price Index as a measurement of inflation and any change from this should be discussed prior to the budget process. Ms. Houston provided Council with a list of potential service level reductions for discussion as a means to reducing the overall operating budget of the City. Council discussed the proposal to reduce grass cutting for A2 sportsfields from twice per week to once per week resulting in a potential savings of $145,000. F. Pizzuto, General Manager of Community Services, pointed out that the savings would be realized in the reduction of temporary seasonal staff and cost avoidance with respect to grass cutting equipment. Council suggested that staff further investigate the proposal and consult with various user groups with respect to the proposed level of service and the possibility of increased user fees for a higher level, if desired. Council discussed the proposal to reduce facility hours at community centre and / or pools agreeing that the savings would be minimum therefore this proposal should not be further investigated. Discussion ensued with respect to the proposal to eliminate three co-op student positions and one vacant position in the Development & Technical Services Department (DTS). It was agreed that the City receives excellent value from the co-op student program and eliminating these positions would have a negative impact. Regarding the vacant position, it was agreed that this should be dealt with through the vacancy management program and the Chief Administrative Officer. Council next discussed the proposal to eliminate or reduce the trail bike program in Corporate Services, eliminate online payment services of parking tickets and eliminating the seasonal weed inspector. G. Sosnoski, General Manager of Corporate Services & City Clerk, advised that eliminating the trail bike program may result in pressure for Waterloo Regional Police to expand resources in the area of Kitchener parks resulting in costs be shifted from the City to the Region yet being paid for by the same taxpayer. Mr. Sosnoski further advised that with respect to the online payment service for parking tickets, it is staffs' opinion that this program requires more time in order for the City to see a benefit and that statistics are showing an increased use of the program. Council questioned the need for a seasonal weed inspector when there are weed inspectors provided through the Region. Council requested further information including cost benefit analysis of the trail bike program and the seasonal weed inspector. Staff were directed to continue with the online payment service for parking tickets at this time. The proposal to eliminate a vacant Programmer's position in Information Technology (IT) was discussed and M. Grummett, Director of IT, advised that the position has been vacant since September 2004 and they foresee no major problems in eliminating the position. Councillor M. Galloway requested that information on vacant positions be provided to Council broken down into those positions that have been vacant for 6-12 months and over 12 months. P. Houston advised on the proposal to eliminate a maintenance contract for the accounting system explaining that staff are recommending they pay as-you-go for required services on the system as staff prepare for the purchase and implementation of a new accounting system. Council also discussed the proposal of an unpaid floater for all staff or for management staff only which may result in a savings of $250,000. or $45,000. per day respectively. Council raised a concern with respect to the impact and the logistics of such a proposal suggesting that discussion and consultation would be required with the union in order to further investigate this proposal. SPECIAL COUNCIL MINUTES NOVEMBER 29, 2004 - 398 - CITY OF KITCHENER Mayor C. Zehr asked if there were other ideas that should be followed up on with respect to potential savings. It was suggested that the Communications and IT Divisions will be reviewed to see if there were further cost savings that could be realized. It was also suggested that shared services between the Cities of Kitchener, Waterloo and Cambridge and the opportunity for fee for services be further investigated. Council also requested a report on full time equivalents broken down by Department and a review of the gapping program. G. Sosnoski advised Council on staffs' investigation into the construction of a twin pad arena that is scheduled in the Capital Forecast for 2008 / 2009. Mr. Sosnoski explained that there are three classes of arenas, 'A', 'B', and 'C' each with a different capital cost. A Class 'A' type twin pad facility is estimated in 2009 dollars at approximately $18.8M, a Class 'B' at $16.5M and a Class 'C' at $13.5M. He further advised that a Class 'A' arena should have a longer building life and less maintenance than a Class 'C' building therefore the upfront increased capital cost may be offset over the lifespan of the facility and result in less operational costs. Council entered into a general discussion with respect to the twin pad arena construction and requested the following information: capital maintenance and replacement costs of each class of building over a 50-year period; estimated land costs and possible locations for the new arena; and, information on renovating or adding to existing arenas in order to extend the life of the buildings. C. Ladd advised of a new initiative, 'Towards Civil Excellence' which is being undertaken by staff to bring together various initiatives currently in place or being developed that will form a plan and strategy that will develop a healthier, viable and livable city. Ms. Ladd explained that the initiative will bring together the Corporate Plan, the Healthy Community Plan, the Environmental, Economic and Social Strategies and Communications and Marketing. Various members of City staff provided information on the aspects of the initiative and how they are connected to form a strategy for civil excellence. Council entered into a general discussion regarding the initiative raising several questions. C. Ladd advised that Communications Division is currently in discussion with the Cities of Waterloo and Cambridge and will be providing a report in the near future on sport tourism and the positive impacts on the community and the Region as a whole. Council requested that Communications Division be included with Special Events so as to capitalize on marketing opportunities. C. Ladd provided to Council, a document entitled 'Government Relations' listing various initiatives undertaken by the senior governments and the timelines that City staff will provide information or a report to Council. Mayor C. Zehr requested that the 'New Deal' of the Federal Government be added to the list. Mayor C. Zehr advised of requests received by his office from various governments from around the world proposing partnerships with the City of Kitchener. The Mayor advised on several specific requests and asked members of Council if they wished to investigate these further. Council entered into a general discussion regarding future partnerships with other civic governments and agreed that the requests should be reviewed individually rather than dealt with under a blanket policy. R. Browning presented various reports on the Shared Agenda, Infrastructure Progress, Asset Management and the Status of Capital Projects advising that staff would provide regular updates on these items. The meeting then recessed at 3:50 p.m. and re-convened in the Council Chamber at 4:01 p.m., Chaired by Mayor C. Zehr and with all members present except Councillor J. Smola. Mayor C.
