    ACTION REQUEST CS To: Date of Meeting: Subject: Relevance to priorities:

    Warden and Members of Council July 20, 2015 Accessibility Plan Update - 2015 1 - Historical, Cultural, Tourism & Recreation

    RECOMMENDATION: THAT the Council of the United Counties of Stormont, Dundas and Glengarry approve the Accessibility Plan update and the Integrated Accessibility Standard Plan update for 2015. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: As required under the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act, 2005, (AODA) an Accessibility Plan is prepared annually outlining improvements in accessibility achieved in 2014 and target areas for 2015. The Integrated Accessibility Standard Regulation came into effect on January 1, 2012 and the requirements set out in the Regulation will be phased in between 2011 and 2025. The Counties Integrated Accessibility Standard Plan, included as part of the annual accessibility plan, specifies completion or target dates to meet the requirements of the Regulation. BACKGROUND: The purpose of the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act, 2005, (AODA) is to improve opportunities for people with disabilities and to provide for their involvement in the identification, removal and prevention of barriers to allow their full participation in life. AODA mandates that each municipality prepare an annual accessibility plan. Accessibility standards are being created as part of the AODA. These standards are rules that organizations in Ontario need to follow to identify, remove and prevent barriers so that people with disabilities will have more opportunities to participate in everyday life. The three standards included as part of the Integrated Accessibility Standard Regulation are information and communications, employment and transportation. An Accessibility Plan was adopted by Council in July, 2003. The Update for 2015 includes a summary of the original plan and annual updates. Included as an attachment to this report is a summary of the plan and a copy of the full plan is available at the Clerks office. The Integrated Accessibility Standard Plan outlines all the requirements of the regulation and completion and/or target dates to meet the requirements.

    OPTIONS AND DISCUSSION: These plans are mandated by provincial legislation. The only possible options would be to revise the plans to include a specific project or accomplishment. FINANCIAL ANALYSIS: The structural targets set for completion in 2015 have a small financial impact. Other targets include staff time which will not have a direct impact on the budget. LOCAL MUNICIPAL IMPACT: OTHERS CONSULTED: CAO and Department Heads SDG Accessibility Committee ATTACHMENTS: Summary of the 2015 Accessibility Plan Integrated Accessibility Standard Plan for 2015 RECOMMENDED BY: REVIEWED & APPROVED BY:

  • Integrated Accessibility Standards

    The Integrated Accessibility Standard Regulation regulates the following three accessibility

    standards:

    Information and Communications

    Employment

    Transportation

    The requirements in the regulation will be phased in between 2011 and 2025. This will give

    organizations time to integrate the accessibility standards into the organizations processes and

    practices.

    The United Counties of Stormont, Dundas and Glengarry is not responsible for any form of

    public transportation; therefore this Standard will not be addressed in this plan.

    The following section of the Accessibility Plan will deal with the Integrated Accessibility

    Standards and will be updated annually as part of the overall review of the Counties

    Accessibility Plan.

It is recommended that the properties be offered to the local municipality in which they reside at the appraised value. If the municipality is not interested in purchasing the property, a realtor be engaged to assist with the sale of the properties. Request for Proposals (RFP) will be distributed to retain the services of a realtor. This process worked well in the sale of the Fassifern Garage (property previously owned by the County). It is recommended that Section 4 of Policy No. 1-14, Sale and Disposition of Surplus Land, referring to property being offered to a local municipality for a nominal fee, be waived. The intent of Section 4 was to provide properties with no

    or little value for use by the local municipality. The properties to be sold are of substantial value with the existing tenants. It is also recommended that Section 5 of Policy No. 1-14, be waived, as public notice of the sale will be given if the properties are listed for sale and will not be required if sold to a local municipality. OPTIONS AND DISCUSSION:

    1. Declare properties surplus, contact municipality to gage interest in property and prepare RFP for realtor services, if required. Recommended.

    2. Offer properties to local municipalities at nominal fee. Not recommended as the properties are of significant value with existing tenants.

    FINANCIAL ANALYSIS: If successful in selling both properties, the County could receive approximately $600,000. LOCAL MUNICIPAL IMPACT: OTHERS CONSULTED: ATTACHMENTS: RECOMMENDED BY: REVIEWED & APPROVED BY:

    ACTION REQUEST FS To: Date of Meeting: Subject: Relevance to priorities:

    Warden and Members of Council July 20, 2015 Canada 150 Fund Application 1 - Historical, Cultural, Tourism & Recreation

    RECOMMENDATION: THAT the Council of the United Counties of Stormont, Dundas and Glengarry approve the submission of a Canada 150 Fund application for the SDG County Jail & Courthouse; AND THAT the Director of Financial Services/Treasurer be authorized to sign said application and act as the Organization Representative as required by the application guidelines. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The Federal Government is planning for Canadas 150th anniversary of Confederation in 2017 and has created the Canada 150 Fund. The SDG County Jail & Courthouse played a significant part in Canadas history including Confederation in 1867. The Canada 150 Fund could provide the opportunity to enhance the jail tours, displays, technology, and promotion. Councils resolution approving the funding application is required to be included in the submission. BACKGROUND: At its June 15th meeting, members of County Council toured the jail and discussed its potential. The building is unique, extremely historical and an untapped asset. Since the jail and courtroom played a significant part of forming Canada, the Canada 150 Fund could provide an opportunity for SDG County to enhance the publics knowledge and use of the jail. Until 2014, jail tours were conducted on behalf of the County by Cornwall and the Counties Tourism (CCT). These tours were terminated when CCT vacated the premise. Since that time, the County has been seeking a new tenant for the former administrative offices and the SD&G Historical Society is conducting jail tours. In order to meet the application criteria the applications short description could be as follows:

    The Upper Canada Eastern District Courthouse and Gaol has been a landmark in Cornwall Ontario since it was originally constructed in 1802.

    Canada 150 Fund Application

    Page 27 of 116

    Back To Top

  • Page 2 of 4

    One of the first locations for the administration of justice in Upper Canada, it is historically significant to the 1867 Confederation and the creation of Canada. The original courthouse and gaol was destroyed by fire in 1826 and the current building was constructed in 1833. This historic building is one of the oldest public structures in Ontario and it functioned as a courthouse and jail until it was closed in 2002. In addition to shaping Canada, the Historic SDG County Jail has a colourful history, including soldiers barracks, trials, hangings, insanity court, debtors prison, child prisoners, daring escapes, reputed paranormal activities and fascinating local tales. This project will educate the public on the history of the Canadian justice and penal system, highlighting 19th century crimes and punishments. Visitors will not only see the maze of prisoner cells, towering stone walls, and execution gallows but, as part of Canadas 150th anniversary, visitors can also live a day in the life of an inmate in 1867 and participate in a re-enactment of the Fenian escape. The jail and attached courthouse have played a direct role in our nations growth and its road to Confederation. Before the Fenian invasions of Canada from the United States in 1866, Cornwall and its Member of Parliament and former Premier John Sandfield Macdonald, did not support confederation. In 1866 this all changed when a number of Fenian leaders went north to stir up rebellion but were arrested in Cornwall and locked in the gaol. If found guilty of treason these men could have faced the death penalty. To even suggest this would have caused a crisis with the United States that could have easily led to an invasion. To prevent an invasion, the powers that be blinked and the Fenians escaped and the crisis was over. This event, however, ended Macdonalds and Eastern Ontarios aversion to Confederation and removed the last political stumbling block in Canada West allowing Confederation to proceed. As a result, John Sandfield Macdonald became the first premier of Ontario after Confederation.

    OPTIONS AND DISCUSSION: 1. Approve the submission of a funding application under the Canada 150

    Fund for the SDG County Jail & Courthouse project. Funding will provide an opportunity for SDG to enhance the jail as a tourist attraction. This option is recommended.

    2. Dont approve the application. This would result in the County being responsible for any costs related to enhancements to the jail.

    3. Establish a SDG Jail & Courthouse Committee. Since Council toured the facility in June, there have been many ideas expressed for enhancing the jail to attract additional visitors. A Committee comprised of Council members and staff could investigate ideas and determine priorities that could be future enhancements. This is also a viable option and does not conflict with the submission of a funding application.

    Canada 150 Fund Application

  • Page 3 of 4

    FINANCIAL ANALYSIS: Activities that could be included in the project include:

    Purchase 1867-period costumes for the public &/or students to participate in a mock trail, sentencing & life in a cell.

    Develop a day in the life of an inmate in 1867 program for the public to participate in.

    Develop a re-enactment of the Fenian escape that lead to Confederation.

    Install a computer monitor in the holding cell near reception where a disabled person would watch & communicate with his/her family who control a camera while they tour the jail.

    Create a phone app to be used during a walking tour. Complete research of criminals & display interesting facts of their

    individual stories. Develop a school education program & promote to local schools. Promote the site for special event bookings. Transform the top floor offices into bedrooms for overnight rentals

    & integrate the publics stay with a jail event. The project is planned to begin in January 2016 and Canada 150 funding is being pursued for 2016 and 2017. The budget within the funding application is currently being finalized and, in order to maximize costs that may be eligible for funding, is expected to result in a total 2-year cost of approximately $150,000. Canada 150 funding is being requested in the amount of $60,000 or 40%. Other potential revenue sources could total $40,000, including admission fees, souvenir sales, special event rentals, student funding, etc. The net County cost is estimated at approximately $50,000 ($25,000 would be budgeted in 2016 and 2017). At this time Councils approval of the funding application is required and approval of the activities and County cost will be required when the funding agreement is authorized. LOCAL MUNICIPAL IMPACT: The funding application is applicable to SDG only, although if approved, the project would benefit local municipalities through its economic impact and potential increased tourist visits to the area.

    ACTION REQUEST TPS To: Date of Meeting: Subject: Relevance to priorities:

    Warden and Members of Council July 20, 2015 2015 Bridge Inspections 3 - Inventory of Infrastructure

    RECOMMENDATION(S): THAT Council of the United Counties of Stormont, Dundas and Glengarry approve the proposal for Professional Engineering Services from Keystone Bridge Management Corp. to complete the 2015 Biennial Bridge Inspections for an upset limit of $57,095.00 plus HST, and authorize the Director of Transportation and Planning Services to sign all necessary documents to give effect to the contract. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: Request for proposals were requested from three Engineering firms with offices in Eastern Ontario. The evaluation of the request for proposals was completed using a value-based selection, meaning that the proposal was reviewed based on their price, understanding of the work, proposed methodology, proposed work plan, project team qualifications and experience with similar projects. This purchasing method allows a balance between price and qualifications and is permissible within the County Purchasing Policy. The proposal received from Keystone scored the highest as evaluated under the value-based selection criteria. BACKGROUND: Biennial OSIM Inspections The United Counties of Stormont, Dundas and Glengarry is responsible for approximately 191 3+ m span structures which were last inspected in 2013. These bridge inspections are carried out with the objective of:

    - Assessing the condition of structures to ensure public safety; - Identifying repairs and rehabilitation needs and reporting them in a user

    friendly manner; - Providing a basis for a structure management system for Staff and Council

    to plan and to fund rehabilitation of structures; - Populating the County database with accurate and useable Ontario

    Structure Inspection Manual (OSIM) data; and - Satisfying the Province of Ontario Biennial inspection requirement.

    2015 Bridge Inspections

    Page 31 of 116

    Back To Top

  • Page 2 of 3

    Engineering Work Required The scope of the engineering work required is as follows:

    - Attend a start up meeting with the County to review the scope of work, project schedule and other items;

    - Attend a calibration meeting held on site of at least 3 different types of OSIM structures to ensure that the work in progress meets the Counties requirements;

    - Complete the inspections in accordance with the OSIM; - Verify all measurements of all the structural components for 20% of

    County structures; - Complete digital photographs of the structure which show various views of

    the structure, and; - Contact the County if any critical defects are noted.

    The field work will be completed by November and all documentation shall be provided to the County by December. The consultant will be presenting their general findings of the OSIM inspections to County Council in December 2015. RFP Distribution The proposal documents were distributed to three engineering firms with the capability and experience with this type of work. The firms invited to submit a proposal were: Keystone Bridge Management Corp. (Kingston) McIntosh Perry Consulting Engineers Ltd. (Carp) CIMA + (Ottawa) Proposal Evaluation Proposals were evaluated under five categories as recommended by the Consulting Engineers of Ontario Selection Guidelines. The consultants submitting the RFPs were made aware of the categories and their weighting. The value-based selection allows the Counties to compare the qualifications, approach and level of effort from each firm and select a firm which will provide the best overall engineering service to the Counties. The five evaluated categories were:

    1) Understanding, approach, methodology (15 pts) 2) Project Team Qualifications (20 pts) 3) Work Plan (15 pts) 4) Experience with Similar Projects (25 pts) 5) Financial (25 pts)

    As this type of work is fairly generic, specific emphasis was given to experience of the project team and the financial component of the RFP. It is often noted by Municipal Managers that some consultants will have inexperienced engineers or

    2015 Bridge Inspections

    engineering technologists doing the field work and report writing, which means that these firms are not providing good value for the cost. It is much more valuable from the Countys perspective to have a seasoned bridge expert out in the field because these bridge inspections drive the Countys bridge rehabilitation and management program. Keystone completed the evaluations in 2011 and staff and Council were very satisfied with the work they completed. OPTIONS AND DISCUSSION:

    1. Award the work. The completion of Biennial bridge inspections are legislated, and is a key part of the Countys asset management program. This option is recommended.

    2. Do not award the work. Not recommended FINANCIAL ANALYSIS: The weighting of the categories was established as per recommendations within the Consulting Engineers of Ontario guidelines and is consistent with RFPs from other jurisdictions. The submitted prices ranged from approximately $36,000 to $198,000. The Department of Transportation and Planning Services budgeted $75,000 to complete this work, therefore the cost associated with this work is within budget LOCAL MUNICIPAL IMPACT: N/A OTHERS CONSULTED: N/A ATTACHMENTS: N/A RECOMMENDED BY: REVIEWED & APPROVED BY:

    ACTION REQUEST TPS To: Date of Meeting: Subject: Relevance to priorities:

    Warden and Members of Council July 20, 2015 Contract Snowplowing 3 - Inventory of Infrastructure

    RECOMMENDATION(S): THAT Council of the United Counties of Stormont, Dundas and Glengarry accept the tenders for the hiring of winter maintenance equipment for a five year term as follows (with prices exclusive of HST): Cruickshank Construction Ltd.- Patrol 1, Winchester Springs at $5.25/lane km. Cruickshank Construction Ltd.- Patrol 2, Finch at $5.25/lane km. Cruickshank Construction Ltd.- Patrol 3, Green Valley at $5.25/lane km. Cruickshank Construction Ltd.- Patrol 4, St. Andrews West at $5.25/lane km. AND THAT Council authorize the Director of Transportation and Planning Services to sign all necessary documents to give effect to the contract. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The above noted contract is to provide the necessary equipment and personnel to plow County roads throughout the next five winters. BACKGROUND: As a result of the plowing rationalization work recently undertaken by the County, staff was able to eliminate three contract truck routes. The proposed routes included in this contract are similar in length and type to what has previously been assigned. This tender was required as previous contracts expired in April 2015. Although the scope of work was similar to previous years, County staff revamped this contract in order to correct ambiguities and issues that were noted throughout the previous contracts. Changes include: increased flexibility to assign contractors different routes depending on circumstances, specific communication requirements and improved clarity regarding the penalties associated with substandard performance. It is envisioned that these improvements will ensure that the Countys expectations will be met, as contract plows should be performing to the same standard as in-house plows.

    Contract Snowplowing

    Page 34 of 116

    Back To Top

  • Page 2 of 3

    OPTIONS AND DISCUSSION: 1. Approve the contract. It is necessary that the County have these

    contract plows to be able to provide winter maintenance. This option is recommended

    2. Do not approve the contract. Not recommended. FINANCIAL ANALYSIS: As in previous years, each patrol was awarded separately so that contractors were able to bid on individual Patrols. This approach allows smaller contractors with one or two units the ability to tender bids without the need to purchase additional plows. Coincidentally, the low bid for all four Patrols was the same contractor. A summary of the bids is as follows (excluding H.S.T.):

    Table 1: Bid Summary

    COMPANY PATROL #1 PATROL #2 PATROL #3 PATROL #4

    Cruickshank Construction Ltd. $5.25/km $5.25/km $5.25/km $5.25/km Neil Flegg Cartage Ltd. No Bid $5.37/km No Bid No Bid

    David Brown Construction Ltd. No Bid $7.00/km No Bid $7.00/km Cornwall Gravel Co. Ltd. Non Compliant Non Compliant Non Compliant Non Compliant

    The County also pays a standby rate (per truck) starting at $95 per day for the 2015/2016 season and ending at $105 per day for the 2019/2020 season (an increase of $2.50 per season). A diesel adjustment is also calculated based on the published MTO fuel prices to compensate for the increase or decrease in fuel pricing throughout the five year term. LOCAL MUNICIPAL IMPACT: The proposed changes to the Countys winter maintenance program impacted the local municipalities because of the added responsibility of plowing some County roads. The agreements to perform this winter maintenance work were passed at Councils June meeting.

    Warden and Members of Council July 20, 2015 Credit and Debit Card Processor 4 - Pooling of Scarce Resources

    RECOMMENDATION(S): THAT By-law No. 5017, being a by-law to authorize an agreement with Currency Systems and Global Payments Canada, be read and passed in Open Council, signed and sealed. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: Currency Systems is a firm which obtains group pricing from credit/debit card processing companies. Currency Systems included SDG Counties in their recent RFP which resulted in Global Payments Canada proposing the lowest cost. BACKGROUND: The County receives payments for various services from individuals through credit and debit cards and these transactions incur various service charges and equipment rental costs. For many years, a large volume of Court Services revenues were received through these methods and processed by Moneris. Enhancing payment options in other departments is also being investigated and can be included in the Global Payments processing. OPTIONS AND DISCUSSION:

    1. Adopt By-law No. 5017 to approve the agreement with Global Payments Canada. This option provides the highest savings and is recommended.

    2. Do not approve the agreement with Global Payments Canada. This option would result in the current agreement with Moneris continuing and any savings would be lost.

    FINANCIAL ANALYSIS: Based on Currency Systems analysis, in 2014 SDG County incurred $21,315 in credit/debit card charges and under the Global Payments proposal the cost would have been $17,823; resulting in a savings of $3,492. The cost savings from the proposals received are as followings: Global Payments $3,492 savings

    Chase $2,757 savings First Data $2,045 savings Moneris $1,569 savings

    ACTION REQUEST TPS To: Date of Meeting: Subject: Relevance to priorities:

    Warden and Members of Council July 20, 2015 Acceptance of One Foot Reserve 3 - Inventory of Infrastructure

    RECOMMENDATION: THAT By-law No. 5018, being a By-law to accept a one foot reserve from the Ministry of Transportation of Ontario, be read and passed in Open Council, signed and sealed. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: This report recommends the acceptance of a one foot reserve lying immediately north west and being north of and adjacent to Block B, Registered Plan 40 from the Ministry of Transportation, to rectify an ownership issue for land fronting County Road 2 in Iroquois. BACKGROUND: Through a recent sale in Iroquois adjacent to the Plaza, it was brought to the Countys attention that the existing long-established access to the property was across a one foot reserve. Further investigation identified that the one foot reserve is owned by the Ministry of Transportation Ontario (MTO), not the County. During the time of transfer of ownership of County Road 2, some of the one foot reserves were not included with the Highway transfers, and, as they are discovered, these land ownership issues are being rectified. As a note, adjacent to this property there are other road widenings which are owned by Ontario Power Generation (OPG). The County has brought these parcels to OPGs attention and it is expected that OPG will eventually transfer these to the Countys ownership in the near future. Through dedication as public highway, access across the one foot reserve will be legitimized. FINANCIAL ANALYSIS: The County has invested some staff time and a nominal fee at the registry office to assist in correcting this issue. LOCAL MUNICIPAL IMPACT: The use of property affected by these legacy land issues is unchanged; however it is important to correct these types of ownership issues to ensure correct title and unencumbered access. is maintained.
