Report No.: CRPS -09 -035
Subject: ELMSDALE OPERATIONS CENTRE AND BATTLER
AGGREGATE YARDS — DECLARE PORTIONS OF
PROPERTIES SURPLUS
RECOMMENDATION:
That approximately 10 acres of the lands located at 83 Elmsdale Drive (known as Elmsdale
Operations Facility) and approximately 10 acres of the lands at 1585 Battler Road (known as
Battler Aggregate Yards), owned by the City of Kitchener, be declared surplus; and staff be
directed to begin the process of disposition of these properties.
BACKGROUND:
As presented in the 2004 Business Case for the Consolidated Maintenance Facility project, the
intention is to declare surplus a portion of the lands at the Elmsdale Operations Facility and
Battler Aggregate Yards and utilize the proceeds to offset the cost of the project (see attached
site diagrams).
REPORT:
Council has previously authorized the recommendation to decommission and where appropriate
declare surplus facilities and lands as part of the Business Case for the Consolidated
Maintenance Facility project. Upon the declaration of these properties as being surplus for the
purposes intended, staff will be in a position to proceed with any necessary environmental clean
up, appraisal and sale.
The declaration of approximately 10 acres of the lands at the Elmsdale Operations Facility and
approximately 10 acres of the lands at Battler Aggregate Yard lands as surplus will allow staff to
proceed with sale of the properties and advance the Consolidated Maintenance Facility project.
