Drainage Prior to Paving

In addition to construction of the petition paving projects, advance drainage work involving installation of catch basins and storm drains must first be carried out. Based on past experience, we estimate the cost of this work to be in the order of $60,000.

The location and individual costs of this work will be detailed in a subsequent General Manager of Engineering Services Funding Transfer upon completion of the necessary design work.

Capital Funds

Funds for the City's share of the projects are available from existing Engineering Department Basic Capital Accounts or are subject to approval of the 1999 Street Basic Capital Budget.

Second Step

The General Manager, Corporate Services reports as follows:

In accordance with the Local Improvements Procedure By-Law, I am submitting the attached City Engineer's Report. The estimated cost of these projects is $1,217,299. The Property owners share of these projects is $611,990. The City's share is $605,309. I have to report that the necessary financial arrangements can be made to carry out this work, subject to approval of the 1999 Streets Basic Capital Budget.
