That the City of Kitchener enter into a Sub-License Agreement with University of Waterloo to
license the former Victoria Park Community Centre premises located at 25 Joseph Street,
Kitchener, owned by Kitchener Housing Inc., for a term of 30 years (including renewals) for a
license fee of $1.00 per annum plus utilities and taxes and on such other terms and conditions
as are satisfactory to the City Solicitor; and
That the City of Kitchener consent to the further Sub-License of the former Victoria Park
Community Centre by University of Waterloo to the physicianss practicing in association as The
Centre for Family Medicine Teaching and Research on terms and conditions satisfactory to the
City Solicitor; and
That the Mayor and Clerk be authorized to execute the Sub-License to the University of
Waterloo and the Sub-License to the Centre for Family Medicine, and such other documentation

REPORT:
As part of the University of Waterloo's plan to establish a Health Sciences Campus in downtown
Kitchener the University has attracted a group of physicians with an affiliation to the University
of Western Ontario and McMaster University who will practice as The Centre for Family
Medicine Teaching and Research and provide appropriate training to family physicians within
the community. The Victoria Park Community Centre moved to the Downtown Community
Centre in or about July, 2005 leaving the space vacant. The proposal is for the City to license
the use of this space to the University of Waterloo who proposes to further-sublicense most of
the space to the physicians of The Centre for Family Medicine Teaching and Research with any
remaining space to be used by the University in connection with the Health Sciences Campus.
The license fee to be charged to the University is the same as paid by the City to Kitchener
Housing Inc. and the University or its sub-licensee is responsible to pay all utilities, taxes, and a
capital contribution to Kitchener Housing Inc. The University will be charging a license fee to
the Centre sufficient to cover the costs of leasehold improvements and utilities being a cost
recovery basis.
The Sub-License Agreements have been negotiated by staff of the City, the University of
Waterloo, Kitchener Housing Inc. and a representative of the physicians and all are in
agreement on their terms and conditions.
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS:
The Sub-License to the University of Waterloo is at the same license fee as the City pays to
Kitchener Housing Inc. The University of Waterloo, or its sub-licensee, will be responsible for
the costs of all utilities, taxes and all leasehold improvements. In addition, Kitchener Housing
Inc. is responsible for a small leasehold improvement to provide separation between the
common room used by residents and the area to be licensed. The cost of these improvements
is approximately $6,000.00 and the City has agreed to pay these costs for Kitchener Housing
Inc.
