Weylie, Chair, with the following members present: Mayor C. Zehr and Councillors J. Smola, J. Ziegler, G. Lorentz, B. Vrbanovic and M. Galloway. Officials Present: Ms. C. Ladd, L. MacDOnald, J. Buckingham and Messrs. J. Fielding, B. Stanley, S. Gyorffy, D. Mansell, N.E. Kuntz, L. Masseo, T. Boutilier, B. Sloan, J. Witmer, P. Wetherup, S. Vipond and L.W. Neil. 1.DTS-01-043-BPS-INTERSECTION OF DOON MILLS DRIVE / TILT DRIVE -REQUEST FOR EXEMPTION TO EMERGENCY ACCESS POLICY -SUBDIVISION 30T-95018 - MONARCH CONSTRUCTION LIMITED -SOUTH WARD The Committee considered Development and Technical Services Department report DTS-01-043- BPS dated November 28, 2001. It was noted in the report that Monarch Construction has requested a temporary exemption from the City’s Emergency Access Policy relative to a proposed modification to draft plan of subdivision 30T-95018 which would result in Doon Mills Drive becoming a cul-de-sac having a length in excess of 300 metres until Doon Mills Drive between Bechtel Drive and Tilt Drive is constructed. Councillor C. Weylie referred to December 3, 2001 correspondence from R. Haalboom which was distributed this date outlining his comments in regard to the request dealt with in the staff report and requested a staff response to Mr. Haalboom’s letter. Mr. L. Masseo commented that Mr. Haalboom’s correspondence set out a number of issues that staff feel are unrelated to the matter under discussion. He noted that the plan of subdivision was final and that the zone change did not affect this portion of the subdivision. No other delegations were registered. On motion by Councillor M. Galloway - it was resolved: “That a temporary exemption be granted from the City’s Emergency Access policy to permit the construction and temporary blockage of Doon Mills Drive at Tilt Drive within Draft Plan of Subdivision 30T-95018 (Monarch Construction Limited), resulting in a cul-de-sac in excess of 300 metres in length. Further, such exemption shall only be permitted until such time as future Doon Mills Drive is constructed between Bechtel Drive and Tilt Drive and is opened to public vehicular traffic, at which time the temporary blockage of Doon Mills Drive within Draft Plan of Subdivision 30T-95018 shall be removed.” 2.SSD-01-015-RECOMMENDATIONS RE KPMG ORGANIZATIONAL REVIEW OF THE FIRE DEPARTMENT The Committee was in receipt of Strategic Services Department report SSD-01-015 dated November 28, 2001 which proposes a number of staff recommendations for consideration related to KPMG’s final report on the organizational review of Fire Services. Ms. C. Ladd advised that the KPMG report and recommendations have been reviewed by the Fire Department Organizational Review Steering Committee and also by Management Committee. As a consequence of the review staff propose a number of recommendations be slightly modified and an overhead presentation was given in this regard. A concern was noted that a number of major issues had not been addressed by KPMG and that there was merit in detailed exploration of merger of functions. It was recommended that at this time building and fire inspections not be merged and that the organizational model proceed on the basis of a two deputy model as a result. She itemized the staffing implications as listed in the report which have a $300,000 impact on the 2002 Operating Budget. Ms. Ladd then remarked on the membership of the Implementation Committee and its role to oversee the implementation of the organizational structure and operational recommendations. 2.SSD-01-015-RECOMMENDATIONS RE KPMG ORGANIZATIONAL REVIEW OF THE DEVELOPMENT & TECHNICAL SERVICES COMMITTEE MINUTES DECEMBER 3, 2001- 21 -CITY OF KITCHENER FIRE DEPARTMENT (CONT’D) Councillor B. Vrbanovic raised a concern with the creation of an emergency planner position and noted that traditionally the function had rested with the Deputy Chief. Ms. C. Ladd pointed out that the Steering Committee had extensive discussion regarding the position and Fire Chief N.E. Kuntz provided rationale as to the need for this position noting that many tasks that should be done have not been undertaken. A lengthy discussion took place in respect to the position during which reference was made to its connection with the City’s Emergency Plan. There was general support for the staff recommendation with the exception of the emergency planner position and required annual funding. Elimination of the position would save $82,000. plus $5,000. in office costs to support the position. It was noted that the Implementation Committee could revisit the issue of the emergency planner position following its further consideration of organizational issues pertaining to the two (2) deputy model. On motion by Councillor B. Vrbanovic - it was resolved: “1)That a new organizational structure be approved for the Fire Services outlined on the Organizational Chart dated November 28, 2001, attached to Strategic Services Department report SSD-01-015, as revised December 3, 2001, to delete reference to an Emergency Planning position. 2)That the process for hiring a new Fire Chief be initiated immediately. 3)That the following recommendations regarding staffing for the Fire Services be approved: a)Create one new Deputy Fire Chief position and proceed with the hiring of two Deputy Fire Chiefs; b)Create and proceed with the hiring of a Systems Administrator; c)Proceed with the reclassifications of the Acting Platoon Chiefs to Platoon Captains; d)Reclassify the existing part-time administrative secretary to full-time; e)Proceed to implement the 24 hour, 7 day a week Communication Shift Supervisor/Lead Hand system. 4)That the costs to implement the recommended organizational structure as outlined above, approximated to be a total of $213,000, be included in Fire’s 2002 operating budget. 5)That an Implementation Committee be established, chaired by the Director of Corporate Research and Planning and consisting of the Fire Chief, Director of Human Resources, General Manager of Financial Services, and the General Manager of Strategic Services and Deputy CAO. The Committee shall oversee the implementation of the new organizational structure in the Fire Department and in particular will be responsible for: a) implementing those operational recommendations which have no further budget implications; b) reviewing and making recommendations on operational changes which have further budget implications for consideration by Council; 2.SSD-01-015-RECOMMENDATIONS RE KPMG ORGANIZATIONAL REVIEW OF THE DEVELOPMENT & TECHNICAL SERVICES COMMITTEE MINUTES DECEMBER 3, 2001- 22 -CITY OF KITCHENER FIRE DEPARTMENT (CONT’D) c)reviewing, in consultation with affected staff, further organizational/management opportunities in the future, including possible efficiencies between Building and Fire Inspections. Any recommendations arising from such review shall be brought forward to City Council for consideration.” Councillor B. Vrbanovic left the meeting at this point. 3.DTS-01-041-BPS-ADDENDUM REPORT TO DTS-01-028-BPS DTS-01-028-BPS-STRASBURG ROAD AT HURON ROAD -ZONE CHANGE APPLICATION ZC 97/34/S/PB -HURON WOODS DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION -FAIRVIEW-GATEWAY WARD The Committee was advised that a zone change application has been received from Huron Woods Development Corporation respecting an approximate 12.9 hectare parcel of land located in the area of Strasburg and Huron Roads. The proposed zone change would permit a range of residential, commercial and industrial uses on the subject lands which will include a number of commercial and service oriented uses, free standing office and low rise residential development. In this regard, the Committee considered Development and Technical Services Department report DTS-01-028-BPS dated November 6, 2001 and a proposed by-law dated October 22, 2001 attached to the report. The Committee was also in receipt of an addendum report DTS-01-041- BPS dated November 26, 2001 and a proposed by-law dated November 26, 2001 which it was requested replace the proposed by-law dated October 22, 2001. As noted in the addendum report, the latest proposed by-law deals with an automobile service station use within Area 3 of the subject lands. It was pointed out that notice that the Committee would hold a public meeting this date to consider this matter had previously been given. Mr. L. Masseo provided a summary of the purpose of the application and advised that staff had nothing further to add. Mr. Mel Code appeared on behalf of the applicant to convey his client’s support for the recommendations in the staff reports. Mr. Code requested an opportunity to respond to any issues that may be raised following presentation of the correspondence received from Richard Hardie by another delegation. Ms. Beverly Small attended on behalf of Mr. Richard Hardie and distributed his December 2, 2001 correspondence, maps and photographs relating to concerns with the rezoning proposal. She then read Mr. Hardie’s letter which advised of their opposition to just parts 2 and 3 of the 7 blocks that comprise the rezoning. In regard to part 2, she advised that they were not opposed to residential uses but were opposed to the rezoning without an accompanying plan of subdivision. In reference to part 3 which is proposed to be rezoned from Restricted Industrial (B-2) to Business Park Service Centre (B-3) to permit convenience commercial and an auto service station, she advised that they were opposed to these uses at that location but were not opposed to such uses on the lands designated part 1. Mr. Otto Bockelkamp attended to express concerns with regard to traffic volume and was of the opinion that there would be more traffic than presently as a result of the closing off of Trillium Drive. He also commented that it was not proven that a commercial site should be developed on part 3. He further indicated that if Templewood Drive was extended through to New Huron Road then the City should insist on a subdivision plan in conjunction with the zone change. Mr. L. Masseo responded to concerns raised by the delegation noting that many of the existing trees on Area 3 would be lost in any event since the lands were already zoned for business park purposes and that in respect to concerns regarding Templewood Drive it was required in the City’s Municipal Plan that the roadway be implemented. He also spoke to the necessity for a number of improvements to Old Huron Road and pointed out that staff were conducting a major 3.DTS-01-041-BPS-ADDENDUM REPORT TO DTS-01-028-BPS DEVELOPMENT & TECHNICAL SERVICES COMMITTEE MINUTES DECEMBER 3, 2001- 23 -CITY OF KITCHENER DTS-01-028-BPS-STRASBURG ROAD AT HURON ROAD -ZONE CHANGE APPLICATION ZC 97/34/S/PB -HURON WOODS DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION -FAIRVIEW-GATEWAY WARD (CONT’D) review of the Brigadoon Community. Mr. D. Mansell provided historical background to the closure of Trillium Drive and the objective in that regard which was to cut off access to Maxwell Drive and background to the design intent of the access ramp that the delegation had referred to. Mr. B. Stanley commented that residential development on Maxwell Drive had taken place in the mid 1980’s ahead of a community plan. Councillor M. Galloway was of the view that a cautious approach should be taken to approval of the zone change which he felt was premature until the Brigadoon Community Plan had been presented to area residents and accordingly suggested that the zone change be deferred at this time. Mr. Mel Code commented on the proposed uses for Area 3 and pointed out that there was no guarantee that the commercial zone type development would go forward and suggested that the requested additional zoning uses were just part of the on-going development process. Further, he noted that the development would not be adding new traffic into the area and that it did not alter the volume of existing traffic which was the product of previous planning decisions. It was his view that the issues of concern of the neighbourhood would not be any clearer after the new Brigadoon Plan has been tabled. In reference to Area 2 which was approximately 5 acres, Mr. Code advised that a lotting pattern had been attempted but since it did not work well it was proposed that development as a block was a more sensible approach. It was Councillor M. Galloway’s view that a three or four month delay in considering this zone change would be appropriate to determine impacts of the new Brigadoon Community Plan and thereby allow the whole picture of area development to emerge. On motion by Councillor M. Galloway - it was resolved: “That Zone Change Application ZC 97/34/S/PB (Strasburg Road and Huron Road - Huron Woods Development Corporation) be deferred and referred to a future meeting of the for consideration after the Brigadoon Development and Technical Services Committee Community Plan has been presented to area residents so as to allow the residents to achieve a better understanding of how this development will impact the area.” 4.DTS-01-035-BPS-ADDENDUM REPORT TO DTS-01-023-BPS -FISCHER-HALLMAN ROAD / HURON ROAD -WERNER BROMBERG LANDS -PROPOSED EXPANSION TO URBAN AREA BOUNDARY -SOUTH WARD The Committee was in receipt of Development and Technical Services Department report DTS-01- 035-BPS prepared as an addendum to an earlier report DTS-01-023. The addendum report provides a detailed history of the West Side Study and Municipal Plan Amendment as it affects the Werner Bromberg lands situate at Fischer-Hallman Road and Huron Road, all of which was prepared in response to a request at the October 29, 2001 Development and Technical Services Committee meeting. Mr. B. Stanley summarized the staff report the purpose of which was to address the status of the Bromberg lands at or near the time of their purchase in relation to planning activity taking place at the time. In summarizing his remarks, Mr. Stanley pointed out that the previous referrals were still outstanding and that the whole of the Kitchener west side needs to be considered by the Region of Waterloo. In response to Councillor J. Ziegler who referenced the issue of due diligence referred to in Mr. T. McCabe’s December 3, 2001 correspondence, Mr. Stanley advised that the facts relating to the planning events were correct and that when the matter had been considered by the Region its response was that there was no justification for extension 4.DTS-01-035-BPS-ADDENDUM REPORT TO DTS-01-023-BPS DEVELOPMENT & TECHNICAL SERVICES COMMITTEE MINUTES DECEMBER 3, 2001- 24 -CITY OF KITCHENER -FISCHER-HALLMAN ROAD / HURON ROAD -WERNER BROMBERG LANDS -PROPOSED EXPANSION TO URBAN AREA BOUNDARY -SOUTH WARD (CONT’D) outside of the settlement boundary. Accordingly, it was his opinion the exercising of due diligence should have resulted in discovery of the deferral by the Region. Ms. Mary Ann Wasilka appeared as a delegation on behalf of the Transit Users Group to speak on the negative impact on urban sprawl in relation to public transit services. She commented that the staff report was complex and precedent setting in terms of action that would be taken on the request and remarked that the expansion of the urban area boundary was not justified. She requested that the Committee decide the matter according to good planning principles and that the Bromberg lands remain zoned agricultural use. She asked that a recorded vote be taken when the Committee dealt with the matter. Ms. Penelope Polyzou, a resident of Waterloo, appeared to provide her views on the request to include the Bromberg lands in the City urban area expansion. She remarked on what the term smart growth means to her, low density residential development, the impact of suburban development on core area schools, protection of water resources and the need to protect remaining farm lands. Mr. T. McCabe, Green Scheels Pidgeon, attended on behalf of Werner Bromberg Limited and submitted December 3, 2001 correspondence detailing their justification in requesting a re- affirmation of a Low Rise Residential designation for the 21 acre Bromberg lands. He noted that the parcel represented only a very small piece of the west side lands to be developed that are composed of hundreds of acres and that the parcel was too small for agricultural uses but too big for development of a single residential use. He commented that the issue of the Region refusing to include the Bromberg lands was only a staff comment and that the matter did not go before Regional Planning Committee or Regional Council. He presented further remarks in support of his request and the planning rationale for inclusion of the Bromberg lands followed by a suggested resolution for Committee consideration. A discussion took place between Committee members and staff dealing with development horizon, servicing issues, and the timing of development of the Bromberg lands being contingent on servicing of other lands. Mr. T. Boutilier pointed out that the Region’s position was that there was no statistical justification to expand the urban boundary by including the Bromberg lands. On motion by Councillor J. Ziegler - it was resolved: “That Kitchener City Council re-affirm its June 27, 1994, decision regarding a Low-Rise Residential designation applying to the 21 acre, Werner Bromberg Limited lands at the northwest corner of Fischer-Hallman Road and Huron Road and request the Region of Waterloo to: 1) Extend the City Urban Area (CUA) boundary to include the Bromberg lands in the ROPP amendments to be considered by Regional Planning and Works Committee and Council, and 2)Approve the Low-Rise Residential designation in Kitchener’s Municipal Plan for the Bromberg lands, as part of its Minister’s modification process in removing Deferral #3a.” 5.DTS-01-037-BPS-ADDENDUM REPORT TO DTS-01-036-BPS DTS-01-036-BPS -STAGING OF DEVELOPMENT REPORT 2002 - POST 2003 The Committee was in receipt of Development and Technical Services Department report DTS-01- 036-BPS (Staging of Development Report 2002 - Post 2003) and an addendum report DTS-01- 037-BPS containing revisions that have been incorporated into the staging report. It was 5.DTS-01-037-BPS-ADDENDUM REPORT TO DTS-01-036-BPS DEVELOPMENT & TECHNICAL SERVICES COMMITTEE MINUTES DECEMBER 3, 2001- 25 -CITY OF KITCHENER DTS-01-036-BPS -STAGING OF DEVELOPMENT REPORT 2002 - POST 2003 (CONT’D) noted in the staging report that it sets out the municipal intention towards the scheduling and processing of plans of subdivision for residential, industrial and commercial development. Mr. B. Sloan summarized the staging report and requested Committee consideration of three revisions as follows: · page 4 of the addendum report be revised to refer to parcel #33, not parcel #31 · parcel #57 be amended to only show that portion that has received draft approval and that the text in table 1(b) be amended accordingly; and that the remaining portion of parcel #57 be identified as a separate parcel with a Post - 2003 timing for potential draft approval · that the timing comments for parcel 60 be revised to read ‘requires secondary access through 583018 Ontario Limited (#61) which requires extension of Fairway Road’ Mayor C. Zehr referred to the Lot Supply table on page 9 of the staff report noting the increase in 2002 over 2001. Ms. C. Ladd responded that the higher number of lots reflected the fact that a majority are contained in lotless blocks which reflect zoning to the maximum density which she stated is rarely the outcome of development. She indicated that it was the view of independent builders that there were not enough lots in the lot supply available to them and that the lot supply amount was to some extent a falsely high number. Mr. T. McCabe, Green Scheels Pidgeon, attended on behalf of Valleyview Heights Limited (#60) which is adjacent to the Sims Estate and for the record advised that they were looking at development of an emergency access up to Fairway Road which would take it through parcel (#61). Mr. McCabe also spoke on behalf of Bill Green who represents 583018 Ontario Limited (Dr. Fung) with regard to parcel #61. He indicated that they were requesting clarification in respect to timing comments which referred to the requiring of extension of Fairway Road and in this regard asked that reference be made to only the easterly part of the property. After commenting, Ms. C. Ladd suggested staff work out appropriate wording and present it for consideration at Council on December 10, 2001. Mr. Paul Britton, MacNaughton Hermsen Britton Clarkson, attended and advised that he was a member of the Homebuilders Association Municipal Liaison Committee and confirmed that there really was a shortage of lots available to small builders. He advised that he represented a number of property owners affected by the staging report and pointed out that all his requests for revision have been accommodated by staff. He did request that the Max Becker lands parcel #18 in the Laurentian West Community which have a 2002 Priority A designation be considered at the January 21, 2002 Development and Technical Services Committee meeting. Ms. Ladd advised that Ms. D. Ross has indicated she will make every effort to address Mr. Britton’s request for consideration of the Max Becker lands at the meeting. On motion by Mayor C. Zehr - it was resolved: “That the Staging of Development Report 2002-Post 2003 (DTS-01-036-BPS) be approved, subject to the following changes: 1) That page 4 of the addendum report (DTS-01-037-BPS) be revised to refer to Parcel #33 not Parcel #31. 2)That Parcel #57 be amended to only show that portion that has received full Draft Approval, and the text in Table 1(b) be amended accordingly; and, that the remaining portion of Parcel #57 be identified as a separate parcel with a Post-2003 timing for potential Draft Approval. 3)That the timing comments for Parcel #60 (Valleyview Heights Limited) be revised to read ‘Requires secondary access through 583018 Ontario Ltd. (#61) which 5.DTS-01-037-BPS-ADDENDUM REPORT TO DTS-01-036-BPS DEVELOPMENT & TECHNICAL SERVICES COMMITTEE MINUTES DECEMBER 3, 2001- 26 -CITY OF KITCHENER DTS-01-036-BPS -STAGING OF DEVELOPMENT REPORT 2002 - POST 2003 (CONT’D) requires extension of Fairway Road’. 4)That proposed revision to the timing comments respecting access to Parcel #61 (Valleyview Heights Limited) be deferred and referred to the December 10, 2001 of a staff recommendation in this regard.” City Council meeting for consideration 6.DTS-01-038-ES-2002 REGIONAL ROADS PROGRAMME AND CAPITAL FORECAST The Committee was in receipt of Development and Technical Services Department report DTS-01- 038-ES dated November 26, 2001 dealing with a recommendation by staff that the City endorse the Regional Municipality of Waterloo’s 2002 Roads Capital Programme. The report lists resurfacing projects, reconstruction projects, intersection improvements, bridge and drainage works, cycling paths, traffic signal modernization, development related left turn lanes, traffic signal installations, road widenings and road system expansion; and the costs relating to each category. Mr. S. Gyorffy introduced the staff report and noted that initially the repairs to the Freeport Bridge were not included. Further, he referenced the proposed expenditures for the years 2001 - 2005 and noted that commencing in both 2004 and 2005 the Region would be undertaking a significant increase in road expenditures within the City of Kitchener. Mr. Gyorffy advised that he would provide Council members with a copy of the full Ten Year Regional Road Capital Programme. Messrs. Rob Gallivan and Graham Vincent attended on behalf of the Region of Waterloo and gave an overhead presentation overviewing how the road programme was developed, new initiatives that were proposed, the budget process, 2001 programme accomplishments and works that were planned for 2002. Many of the projects undertaken in 2001 were illustrated to the Committee. Councillor J. Smola referred to the 2002 resurfacing planned for Weber Street between Breithaupt Street and Guelph Street and pointed out that existing driveway ramps were very narrow by todays standards and suggested they be widened when the road work was undertaken. Mr. D. Mansell agreed to advise the City’s project manager of this issue. On motion by Councillor G. Lorentz - it was resolved: “That the City of Kitchener endorse the Regional Municipality of Waterloo’s 2002 Roads Capital Programme as outlined in Development and Technical Services Department report DTS-01-038-ES.” Councillor J. Ziegler left the meeting at this point. 7.DTS-01-039-DOWNTOWN CORE INSPECTIONS REPORT The Committee considered Development and Technical Services Department report DTS-01-039 (Downtown Core Inspections Report) dated November 22, 2001. The report references fires in the Downtown area since 1999. The report discusses pro-active work of various City staff to reduce all forms of fire hazard within the Downtown. Fire Chief N.E. Kuntz pointed out that the staff report should be amended to refer to the July 21, 2000 fire at 200 King Street West causing only $1,000 damage. 7.DTS-01-039-DOWNTOWN CORE INSPECTIONS REPORT (CONT’D) On motion by Mayor C. Zehr - it was resolved: DEVELOPMENT & TECHNICAL SERVICES COMMITTEE MINUTES DECEMBER 3, 2001- 27 -CITY OF KITCHENER “That Development and Technical Services Department report DTS-01-039 (Downtown Core Inspections Report) be accepted for information purposes only as per the January 8, 2001 Council request in response to recent fires downtown.” 8.DTS-01-042-ES-MASTER STORM WATER MANAGEMENT POLICY The Committee was in receipt of Development and Technical Services Department report DTS-01- 042-ES dealing with a Master Storm Water Management Policy and recommendations proposed in that regard. An executive summary of Storm Water Management Policy Development was also provided by Donald G. Weatherbe Associates Inc. along with the staff report. Mr. S. Gyorffy provided the Committee with a detailed background of the origins of storm water management within the City of Kitchener since inception of a policy in that regard. Mr. Ray Tufgar and Ms. Carrie Curtis, Totten Sims Hubicki, attended to make a presentation on this matter noting that the focus was on both quality control and quantity control of water. The delegation advised that their study investigated options to modify the current approach and create a strategy for a City wide policy for storm water management that would guide the future location, design and implementation of storm water measures throughout the City. Objectives of a changed policy include the following: to reduce contaminants, to benefit fishery resource, to improve stream habitat, to source control re pollution prevention, to maximize efficiency of expenditures and to increase ground flows. It was noted that there were some 80 different storm water management measures that could be applied, all of which have widely varying costs and the question to be addressed was what was the most cost effective approach. Comment was made on trends and advances in storm water management measures as well as on life cycle costing approach to control measures. Councillor M. Galloway left the meeting at this point. Mayor C. Zehr commented that since the staff recommendation had significant budget implications and since there were only four Council members present, it would be more appropriate to refer the th matter to the December 10 City Council meeting for discussion rather than dealing with the recommendation at this time. On motion by Mayor C. Zehr - it was resolved: “That the following recommendations outlined in Development and Technical Services report DTS-01-042-ES relative to the Master Storm Water Management Policy be referred : to the December 10, 2001 City Council Meeting for consideration 1)That Council approve the Master Storm Water Management Policy as presented at a Technical Workshop, May 3, 2000; at Environmental Committee, June 7, 2000 and at a Public Meeting on June 20, 2000, and That the Schedule “B” Class Environmental Assessment Study Report be filed with the City Clerk for the mandatory 30-day review period. 2)That staff be directed to include in the City’s Capital Budget Program, expenditures of $370,000/year in accordance with Recommendation #5. 3)That Community Services continue to undertake $100,000/year in their Operating Budget under Winter Works for stream rehabilitation in accordance with Recommendation #7. 8.DTS-01-042-ES-MASTER STORM WATER MANAGEMENT POLICY (CONT’D) 4)That staff be directed to retain the services of Totten Sims Hubicki Associates, on a year-to-year basis, in order to undertake the implementation, monitoring and annual DEVELOPMENT & TECHNICAL SERVICES COMMITTEE MINUTES DECEMBER 3, 2001- 28 -CITY OF KITCHENER report program in accordance with Recommendations #’s 4 and 10 at an estimated cost of $35,000 for 2002. 5) That the funding requirements be referred to the City’s budget process.” 9.ADJOURNMENT On motion, the meeting adjourned at 10:20 p.m. L.W.
