From the November 9, 2015 Committee Meetings

SPC on Transportation

7.2.1 Update on the Development of the Active Transportation Plan (Matters Requiring Direction)

*The report provides an update on the development of the Active Transportation Plan (ATP). A motion to support the recommendation to receive the report as information was supported unanimously by the Committee.

Background

*The ATP is being developed in five phases. The project is roughly 50% complete.
*Since the ATP was launched in April, over 2,000 residents and stakeholders have been engaged through various activities and events.
*It is anticipated that the ATP will contain recommendations in the following areas:

-bicycle parking and integration with transit
-land use and growth plans to support moving around with active transportation
-maintenance and accessibility
-education and awareness
-safety
-connectivity of walking and cycling facilities

7.2.4 Amendments to Bylaw No. 7200, The Traffic Bylaw – Speed Limit Changes (Matters Requiring Direction)

*A motion to recommend to Council to support the recommendations in the report was supported unanimously by the Committee.
Recommendations of the report are as follows:

1. That a speed limit of 60 kph on Range Road 3060 from the north City Limit south to highway 16 be established.
2. That a speed limit of 60 kph on Wanuskewin Road between 51st Street to a point 450 metres north of Adilman Drive be established.
3. That a speed limit of 70 kph on Wanuskewin Road from a point 450 metres north of Adilman Drive to a point 370 metres north of 71st Street be established.
4. That a speed limit of 80 kph on Range Road 3055 from 71st Street West to the north City Limit be established.
5. That a speed limit of 90 kph on Wanuskewin Road from a point 370 metres north of 71st Street to the north City Limit be established.
6. That a speed limit of 90 kph on 71st Street West from Thatcher Avenue west to the City Limits be established.
7. That a speed limit of 100 kph on Highway 11 from a point 470 meters south of Circle Drive East to the south City Limit be established.
8. That the City Solicitor be requested to prepare the appropriate bylaw amendment to Bylaw No. 7200, The Traffic Bylaw to go into effect February 1, 2016.

Background

*The City recently annexed roadways which previously were regulated by the Provincial Traffic Safety Act and must now be included in The Traffic Bylaw.

7.2.7 Neighbourhood Traffic Review Process – Updated Process (Matters Requiring Direction)

*The Committee unanimously supported a motion for the Administration to report back to the Committee with recommendations on a clear policy regarding the endorsement of a final Neighbourhood Traffic Review, including a process outlining alternatives where some elements of a Neighbourhood Traffic Review may not be acceptable to City Council.

Background

*The report outlines proposed changes to the ‘Traffic Calming Guidelines and Tools’ document. Changes are required due to concerns recently raised at City Council about the ability of the Neighbourhood Traffic Review process to lead directly to permanent road restrictions or significant roadway changes, and how input is sought from throughout the community.

7.2.8 8th Street Transit Corridor Review (Matters Requiring Direction)

*The Committee unanimously supported a motion to recommend to City Council 1)  that Saskatoon Transit be directed to further develop the service along 8th Street and 2) that the Administration report back by April 2016 so City Council can decide whether to implement changes in July of 2016.

Background

*Saskatoon Transit Administration has reviewed the service currently provided along the 8th Street Corridor. Planners identified the possibility of re-deploying current resources and achieving service approaching 5 minute frequencies along 8th Street during peak hours, and 10 minute frequency for the remainder of weekdays and on Saturday. Frequency of 30 minutes would be provided on evenings (Monday to Saturday), early Saturday mornings, and on statutory holidays and Sundays.

7.2.10 Sidewalk Snow Clearing Enforcement Process – Implementation (Matters Requiring Direction)

*The Committee unanimously supported a motion to forward the report to City Council as information.

Background

*In February, the Committee received a report from the Administration recommending options to improve sidewalk snow clearing compliance through the Sidewalk Clearing Bylaw. The Committee then asked Administration to provide an implementation report outlining details.

*The new sidewalk clearing enforcement procedure is designed to increase compliance and decrease clearing time.
*A detailed, objective inspection process will be followed to establish compliance.
*Discretion will be used for seniors and residents with disabilities.
*City property will conform to the requirements of the Sidewalk Clearing Bylaw.

SPC on Environment, Utilities & Corporate Services  

6.3.1 Greenhouse Gas Reduction Recommendations (New Matters)

*The Committee referred this matter to the Saskatoon Environmental Advisory Committee for information and to the Administration for a report.

Background

*The Saskatchewan Environmental Society presented recommendations based on its observations about best places to start in reducing community-wide greenhouse gas emissions in Saskatoon.

7.2.1 Strategic Plan: 2015 Progress Report for Performance Measures (Matters Requiring Direction)

*The Committee supported the recommendation to forward the report to City Council for information.

Background

*Performance Measures for our 2013-2023 Strategic Plan were approved by City Council in April after consultations with citizens and stakeholders.
*2015 Mid-year updates are available for 16 of the 25 corporate performance measures.
*All divisions have identified initiatives and supporting measures that contribute to the corporate targets.
*Next Steps: “Our Performance” website will be updated with mid-year progress towards targets, how we are making strides, opportunities for improvement, and strategies for success.

7.2.3 2015 Curbside Swap (Matters Requiring Direction)

*The Committee supported the recommendation to forward the report to City Council for information.

Background

*Program feedback and survey results show that both the 2014 and 2015 Curbside Swap events were well attended. In 2015 nearly 900 participants on the Facebook event created for Curbside Swap said they would participate.
*50 participating homes were visited by City staff and 61 participants provided their address on Facebook.
*A one-day city-wide Curbside Swap event was held in 2015 to bring greater awareness to the program through focussed communications. Community Associations participated in the Curbside Swap program by either by hosting their own event or by communicating the city-wide event.
*Other Canadian municipalities involved in facilitating swaps hold one-day citywide events in their communities.

7.2.4 Landfill Ban Implementation Considerations (Matters Requiring Direction)

*The Committee supported forwarding a recommendation to the 2016 Business Plan and Budget Review recommending that a phased landfill ban program for paper and cardboard begin in 2016.

Background

*In order to effectively divert waste from all Saskatoon area landfills, a landfill ban program needs to address paper and cardboard at the curb.
*The main considerations for implementing a successful landfill ban program for paper and cardboard in Saskatoon are: a) That all sectors have programs in place to support paper and cardboard diversion prior to enforcing a ban at the landfill. b) That waste haulers, material recovery facilities and landfills are prepared to divert paper and cardboard. c) That extensive stakeholder consultations and education are used in the development and set-up of the program.
*10.7% of the total waste received at the City’s landfill in 2014 was paper and cardboard from the Industrial, Commercial and Institutional sector, presenting a significant opportunity for advancing the waste diversion rate in Saskatoon toward the Performance Target of 70%.

7.2.6 Roadways Design, Construction, and Maintenance – Civic Service Review (Matters Requiring Direction)

*The Committee supported a recommendation to refer the report to the Standing Policy Committee on Finance to consider recommending that the information be received in conjunction with the pending audit on Roadway Maintenance and Rehabilitation and forward the November 9, 2015 report to City Council for information.

Background

*The report is a summary of the Roadways Design, Construction and Maintenance Civic Service Review. Improvements in process and operations in the summary will improve service to citizens through increased effectiveness and will improve efficiency in the delivery of civic services.

7.2.8 Wastewater Treatment Plant – Odour Monitoring System Update (Matters Requiring Direction)

*The Committee supported the recommendation to forward the report, updating the Odour Abatement Project at the Wastewater Treatment Plant, to City Council for information.

Background

*Construction commenced in May 2015 and is currently 25% complete.
*An odour monitoring system is currently being installed at the site by Odotech Inc. and is expected to be collecting data by the end of November 2015.

The Highway 16 over Idylwyld Drive overpass to North Battleford reopened to traffic today as rehabilitation of the structure progresses. The temporary traffic signals installed to control Idylwyld Drive southbound and Highway 16 westbound traffic have also been removed.

Speed restrictions and some lane restrictions will still be required at the intersection over the coming weeks while workers finalize repairs and clean up the site.

The Government of Saskatchewan is responsible for the planning and construction of this project, while the City is responsible for coordinating traffic control.

Do you have ten minutes to help shape Saskatoon’s financial future? Visit Citizen Budget the City of Saskatoon’s new online tool for gathering public feedback on how the municipal portion of property tax dollars are spent. Citizen Budget provides Saskatoon citizens an opportunity to comment on key civic services and programs, and also offer general comments on any matters of concern.

Spend more, spend less or spend about the same? There are eight days left to tell us what you think about the City’s proposed 2016 Budget. Citizen Budget will be closed after next Friday, November 13.

Importantly, City Council and Administration will consider all public feedback gathered through Citizen Budget prior to their final budget deliberations, November 30, December 1 & 3, 2015. Visitors to City Hall can also leave their comments at the budget display in the front lobby.

Graham Commuter Partners (GCP) continues to design the North Commuter Parkway and Traffic Bridge project. The group is currently submitting the necessary regulatory permits required to begin construction on the Traffic Bridge as well as doing some exploratory work at the site of the new bridge.

“Construction in the river cannot commence until all permits are received,” says Dan Willems, Special Projects Manager with Major Projects. “GCP is currently proposing the first stages of activity would include mobilizing a staging area in Rotary Park and construction of an earthen berm from the south bank of the river to the existing pier in the centre of the river.

“The staging area will act as the site for construction vehicles and operations, and the berm will allow construction access within the river for the new bridge.”

GCP hopes the Traffic Bridge permits will be received in the coming weeks, and plans to begin construction very soon after these are received. This means residents could soon begin to see activity in and around the Traffic Bridge site.

Under the proposed plan, demolition of the second span in from the Rotary Park riverbank would then proceed, and the central pier would be improved to accommodate the new bridge structure.

“Following this stage of work, which is expected to be complete by April 2016, GCP plans to draw back the earthen berm southward and continue work around the span nearest the Rotary Park riverbank in the 2016 spring and summer season.”

Similar permit applications for the North Commuter Parkway Bridge are being prepared and are expected to be submitted to regulatory authorities by GCP in early 2016.

The City will provide additional design details to the public as they are available. All roadways and bridges will be operational by October 2018.
