nl:Liil� 11� 1111111 0
"That the Mayor and Clerk be authorized to execute an Encroachment Agreement, satisfactory
to the City Solicitor, with the property owner of the property municipally known as 760
Commonwealth Cres., to legalize the proposed City owned sidewalk which will extend 55m,
more or less, along the Commonwealth Cres. frontage to a depth of approximately 2m, more or
less, onto 760 Commonwealth Cres."
�014
The owner of 760 Commonwealth Cres., being the Waterloo Region District School Board, has
recently entered into a section 41. development agreement with the City. As part of this
process, it was agreed to in principle, with the understanding that this is a test case design, to
locate the school bus loading zone within the boulevard as an alternative to the drop-off directly
in front of the school on the street. Therefore, the City sidewalk will be located on private
property. This area will be designated and signed for the exclusive use of school buses and
charter buses and is not intended for parents dropping off children. The sidewalk extends
approximately 55m along the Commonwealth Cres. frontage to a depth of approximately 2m.
The location is set out on the attached drawing.
It is necessary to enter into an encroachment agreement with the owner of 760 Commonwealth
Cres. in order for the City to legalize its proposed sidewalk.

FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS:
The appropriate staff has reviewed this request and has no concerns with entering into an
encroachment agreement with the property owner of 760 Commonwealth Cres. for the purposes
of legalizing the portion of the City sidewalk on private property.
