TOPIC DEFINED Key lssue(s)/Concepts Defined: After consulting with both the Approvals Engineer and the Implementation/Analysis Engineer (AESRD) it's been determined that the old plant would have to be operated in conjunction with the new plant and could not be simply a stand by plant. This would mean having to operate the old plant as we do now including all the daily checks, monitoring and record keeping. We would also be required to do yearly chemical analysis of the blended water sources. In addition to these operational requirements we would also have to apply for a new diversion license for the well as the old diversion license was transferred to the new plant. The two plants would have to communicate with each other to ensure when one is operating the other is isolated from the distribution system so we are not simply filling one plant with water from the other. This would require either physically closing a valve at the respective plants or setting up a costly automatic electrically controlled valve tied into the SCADA systems of both plants. Operating both plants can be done, but the costs to upgrade and the cost of operating two plants at the same time would be almost prohibitive (refer to cost estimate enclosed). Relevant Policy: Both plants would have to meet the requirements of Code of Practice for Waterworks using High Quality Ground Water, the Water Act and the EPEA (Environmental Protection and Enhancement Act). Brazeau County - Request for Council Decision - Existing Water Treatment Plant in Rocl<y Rapids Page 1 of 3 60 strategic Relevance: Implementing the two plant system would increase the cost of the new plant and additional investment in the existing plant would also be required. These would be significant when aiming at the two SCADA systems to talk to each other and also the additional mechanical requirements. We also have adequate capacity of water in the new plant to meet the required domestic storage volume and firefighting requirements. It will be a challenge to turn this water over quickly enough to keep it fresh and adding additional volume from the old plant will add to this challenge. Existing Plant Capacity - 250m3 New Plant Capacity - 2,200m3 Desired Outcomes: To proceed as planned with operating the new plant only and avoid the elevated costs and operations requirements of operating two at once. RESPONSE OPTIONS 2. Possible ways to achieve the main result with analysis highlights. Analysis Option a. Council approves staff recommendation + Cost savings by avoiding the additional labor, operations and maintenance costs required to operate two plants instead of one. + Cost savings that would involve communications between the two plants and the required additional infrastructure for a two plant system. + We have the SCADA system, injection system, level control system, pumps and various other parts available for the Cynthia WTP. - No backup available should the new plant fail. b. Council rejects the request as - Recommendation/Direction from council - Defer/table request submitted c. Council requires more information Preferred Strategy: Decommission the old plant as operating both plants presents too many cost and operational challenges with little benefit. Brazeau County - Request for Council Decision - Existing Water Treatment Plant in RockyRapids Page 2 of 3 61 3. IMPLICATIONS OF RECOMMENDATIONS General: Organizational: Additional operational funds would be required to operate both plants. Although there is always the possibility that we could see a failure of some sort with the new plant we have been running a single plant only for the last 20yrs or so. Financial Level A Estimated costs associated with the operation of two plants: Construction excavation) (new automatic valves, $100,000.00 Retro fit SCADA System and communications $40,000.00 Operations and maintenance $36,000.00/year Total $176,000.00 includes yearly O&M Follow Up Action: Should council support the recommendation in this report we would delay until spring the final physical detachment of the old water plant from the distribution system to give us an alternate source throughout the Initial months of operating the new plant.

Using Associated Engineerings' (AE), October 2014 Concept study we first requested Lot 17 within Trader Ridge Industries' ( TRI) proposed subdivision development area. TRI has opted to delay plans for their subdivision development as a result of uncertain economic conditions. County administration is scheduled to meet with Arc Resources land department on January 29^^ to discuss locating the facility on Arc Resources property . This proposed location was also identified as an optimal site in the concept study and is right beside an existing 300mm diameter water main.

Brazeau County - Report to Council •Poplar Ridge Booster Station Page 1 of 1 82 Brazeau County BRAZEAU COUNTY UPDATE REPORT TO COUNCIL SUBJECT: South Sewer Trunk Main Upgrade Project DATE TO COUNCIL: February 03, 2015 PREPARED BY: Winston Rossouw, P.Eng, Director of Public Works & Infrastructure UPDATE ISL Engineering (January IS, 2015) Update report: Phi- South Sanitary Trunk Twinning INFORMATION: Overview: ISL Engineering in 2007 completed a Waste Water Collection System Master Plan on behalf of the Town of Drayton Valley (The Town). During late 2014 ISL Engineering undertook a detailed wastewater inflow/infiltration study of the sanitary collection system in greater details than previously done with the master plan work of 2007. This report also builds on the Request for Council Decision (June 08, 2010), Council's motion 309/10 (attached) and the endorsement of AMWWP Grant application status. Background: As of January 15, 2015, ISL Engineering provided The Town with an updated technical and costing report based on the recalibration of the XP-SWM computer model analysis. The recalibration process provided definitive findings ranging from but not limited to; the degree of infiltration of the wastewater system, relief measures to mitigate flooding and resizing of the proposed twinning sanitary pipe. The funding source as per Council Request for Decision (June 08, 2010), was based on AMWWP grant. The Town at this point may have exhausted their eligibility for further AMWWP funding for this project. Based on the aforementioned. The Town will now apply to an alternate source of funding namely. The New Building Canada Fund. Brazeau County - Report to Council - South Sewer Trunk Main Upgrade Project 83 Page 1 of 2 Council's nfiotion 309/10 approved to cost share an amount of $1;197;000.00 (over two fiscal years) which equates to 19.4%of the total proposed construction cost ($6,170,000.00)Jhe Town's contribution equaled to 41.2% and AMWWP's contribution amounted to 39.4% of total project cost. The Town is yet to make a formal application to The New Building Canada Fund. It must be noted: That the details and eligibility requirements to access The New Building Canada fund has not been finalized by Infrastructure Canada. ISL's revised cost estimate{January 15, 2015) for design and supply of 750mm PVC pipe, supply and install of manholes along the route, priority pipe and manhole relining, engineering fees and a 15%contingency allowance is estimated at $8,540,625.00. Should the above scope be implemented and taking into account similar cost share percentages as per Request for Council Decision (June 08, 2010), Council's representative two year cost share contribution amounts to $1,656,881.25. The assumption at this juncture is based on the expectation that The New Building Canada Fund will contribute 39.4% and The Town 41.2% of the total estimated cost. Conclusion: • That Council be kept informed and recognize that the project remains a high priority for The Town in terms of flood mitigation and hydraulic capacity balancing of the existing system; • That the pursuit for funding will shift from AMWWP to The New Building Canada Fund; • Council's financial contribution over two years will increase by a minimum of $459,881.25; • That Administration is pursuing a meeting with The Town during the first week of February, 2015 in order to facilitate the grant application and to reaffirm The Town's timeline on the project. 84 Brazeau County - Report to Council -South Sewer Trunk Main Upgrade Project Page 2 of 2 BRAZEAU COUNTY REQUEST FOR COUNCIL DECISION Brazeat^^ Cmmty* SUBJECT: South Sewer Trunk Main Upgrade Project DATE TO COUNCIL: June 8, 2010 SUBMITTED BY: Public Works and Infrastructure / REVIEWED BY CAO / ENDORSED BY: FILE NO: N/A Reoort/Document Attached - X Available Nil RECOMMENDATION: That Council support and authorize Public Works & Infrastructure to proceed with the South Sewer Trunk Main Upgrade Project Proposal for AMMWWP funding which would be phased over two years versus the originally presented three phase proposal. 1.

The 2010 approved budget reflected an expenditure of $788,000. The project was approved on the following basis: Phase AMWWP Grant ($) County's Share ($) Town's Share Total Cost($) 1 933,000 649,000 768,000 2,370,000 2 922,000 641,000 779,000 2,342,000 3 1,376,000 958,000 1,164,000 3,498,000 Total 3.231,000 2,248,000 2,731,000 8,210,000 However after the recent MDP/LUB discussions and service review resulting in a reduction of service requirement over the next 25 - 50 years the project requirements has been revised to reflect the following: Phase AMWWP Grant ($) County's Share ($) Town's Share Total Cost($) 1 1,322,000 1,214,000 824,000 3,360,000 2 1,106,000 1.331,000 373,000 2,810,000 Total 2,428,000 2,545,000 1,197,000 6,170,000 85 Relevant Policy: FIN-1, Brazeau County adheres to Generally Accepted Accounting Prindples (GAAP) and to accounting procedures as set out in Provincial Legislation {Municipal Government Act, M.GA.) therefore additional capital expenditure requires Council approval.

ENDORSED BY: Martino Verhaeghe, Dire^^^jf^nning &Development/^^^ REVIEWED BY CAO: Marco Schoeninger FILE NO: N/A Report/Document Attached Available RECOMMENDED ACTIONS; That Council retains the Municipal Reserve lots located at: - Lot R17 Block 2 Plan 782 1156 within SE 3-49-8-W5M - Lot R16 Block 1 Plan 782 1156 within SE 3-49-8-W5M - Lot R33 Block 3 Plan 782 1156 within SE 3-49-8-W5M 1. TOPIC DEFINED Executive Summary/Key lssue{s)/Concepts Defined: Administration was made aware that several residents of Cottonwood Acres are accessing their properties through Municipal Reserve (MR) lands upon receiving a subdivision application in Cottonwood Acres. As Municipal Reserve is owned by the County, access through these MR lots is considered trespassing and cannot be deemed legal access to the landowners' parcels. The subdivision application has been tabled pending the outcome of this decision with Council. The Municipal Planning Commission directed Administration to bring this item forward for consideration by Council. In reviewing the Brazeau County Land Inventory brought before Council in 2008, it was noted that Lots R16 and R33 were to be retained as a buffer strip. There was consideration for selling Lot R17 but Administration would recommend this portion of MR be retained by the County as well, since it would not resolve the access Issue. If Council wishes to proceed with removing the MR designation there are several items to be assessed, namely: 1) Would Council want to remove the MR designation from all 3 MR lots or only the MR lot in front of the parcel that currently has a subdivision application? 2) If the MR designation is removed, would the land be sold back to the residents or utilized for road widening? If the land is sold back to the residents, a subdivision application would Brazeau County - Request for Council Decision - Removal of Municipal Reserve designation and disposal of MR 88 Page 1 of 3 have to be filed for each respective parcel in order to consolidate the MR buffer strip with their lot. 3) If Council wishes to only remove the MR designation for the portion of land affecting the parcel with a subdivision application, the same process would need to occur. If Council removes the MR designation from ail 3 MR lots and allows for them to be consolidated with the affected parcels, this would effectively create the opportunity for those 9 parcels to make application for subdivision, potentially creating 9 new parcels (in addition to the existing 9 parcels). Removal of MR designation and consolidation with existing lots would require purchase of the land and dedication of those funds into our MR account. The land can be purchased by the landowners if it is consolidated with the existing lots or purchased by the County for road widening. It is not yet determined who will be covering the expenses for the land purchase and surveying costs. If a Public Hearing is scheduled, notification will be sent to all landowners in Cottonwood Acres and surrounding area in addition to advertising in the Western Review. It should be noted that there is at least one other subdivision affected by this same scenario. Relevant Policy: The Municipal Government Act provides the framework for the removal of an MR designation and disposal of MR land. The Brazeau County Land Inventory provides guidance on how Council wants to handle County owned and MR land. The Land Use Bylaw provides guidelines for subdividing property in Brazeau County. Strategic Relevance: Council should maintain consistency with the Brazeau County Land Inventory which recommends retaining 2 of the 3 MR lots for a buffer strip. If Council wishes to proceed with MR designation removal and disposal of the land, they will need to ensure compliance with the provisions of the IVIunicipal Government Act Road widening requirements should be assessed by PWI prior to final sale of the buffer strips and implications to access onto County road evaluated.

We are requesting funding as well as support by way of either joint venture or independent projects within the business community / economic development programs that we can manage on behalf of the business community to allow us to become financially independent in the future. The Chamber of commerce has been struggling for membership, staffing and development since we were asked to move from the old RCMP location. We have contracted the Business Center to provide us with space and administrative services, as an effort to get back on track. We have invited the Rocky Mountain House and Edson Chamber of Commerce locations to share information with us to reorganize the Chamber of Commerce in Drayton Valley as well as consulted with the Alberta Chamber of Commerce. We have spent the last couple of months working on compliance with the required levels of governing bodies. At this point we only have approximately 108 members and are struggling to meet basic operational expenses at this time. Staffing is a serious concern for the Chamber of Commerce as we are unable to pay an Executive Directory or even for the time that is being asked of the Business Center. We are focusing on hosting a Trade Show in the Spring of 2015, Updating the Business & Services Directory, Continuing with the Annual Business Awards Gala, as well at the Chamber Cash program. We ask that you be a paft of our revitalization journey, we need your time, thoughts, suggestions and funding to get us back up and running. We have enclosed a copy of our New Membership Package for your convenience as well as a copy of the financials for the Chamber of Commerce to outline our need for support. Thank you for your consideration of any assistance you can provide to the Drayton Valley District Chamber of Commerce. We do not want to see the Chamber of Commerce have to shut down, but unfortunately if we are unable to access some assistance that will be the inevitable outcome.

Hi Sheny, No problem what printed materials are you interested in? Bylaws?More? As for our website-thank you! We made the switch to Chamber Master in February and it was the best decision we have ever made. If you have it in your budget I would hig^y recommend using them. We currently have 355 members and see and increase of approx 15% which includes the approx 20 drop per year.Fort Saskatchewan has a population of21,000 with approx 800 business licences issued (including home based) and a population growtii rate of4.5% Our rates are currently: I-2 permanent full-time employees $ 187.50 3-10*'*$218.75 II-20* "$312.50 21-40 "'$437.50 40+"'$500.00 Non-Profit Association $ 187.50 However we are transitioning to a tiered membership diis fell to launch January 2015. For the past few years we have had 3 FT employees: -Sales & Marketing, Executive Director and Office Manager ( responsible for book keeping) Last year the roles changed 2 FT (Sales & Marketing, Executive Director)and 1 PT OfficeManager( responsible for book keeping) 97 We found in 2013-2014 this was not enough manpower and just as of recently have realigned the office staff once more. We are back to 3 FT ( ACC recommends 1 FT employee per 100 members). Positions now are: Executive Director, Membership & Marketing Coordinator .Sales and Event Coordinator with bookkeeping outsourced. Ok now for our events: -We hold a monthly meeting, first Wednesday every month at lunch with a guest speaker (attendance 60-100) depends of course on the speaker.$25.00 for members ( Break event event) -Chamber on TAP-free for members. Every second Friday hosted by a different Chamber member.

Our hope is to have a representative from the county open our ice show with a few words of greetings along with the MLA and town representative. The Drayton Valley Figure Skating Club is a non-profit organization and was first established in 1955 on an outdoor rink constructed by the Rotary Club. The club was incorporated in 1983 and runs programs beginning in late August and continuing until late April. We have 140 local skaters currently registered ranging from ages 3-17, and we are gearing up for our 60thannual Ice Show set for February 28, 2015. This is our year-end event where our skaters showcase their skills and hard work throughout the season. The event is run by a group of dedicated volunteers with the assistance of local businesses which contribute to our club. The event is sanctioned by Skate Canada. Our guest skater is Shawn Sawyer, a Canadian champion who also competed in the Torino, Italy - Olympic Games. In addition to his competitive history he regularly participates in the Stars on Ice tour in Canada, US and Japan. Shawn has been a 108 I professional skater since Torino and is known for his showmanship, promising a wonderful show. If you have any questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to phone or email. Your time and consideration are greatly appreciated.
