Council representative on the BIA – the CAO advised that Council will be making its<br />
decision shortly as to which Councillor would be appointed to the BIA Board.<br />
CAO Wingrove explained that once the Council representative is appointed to the Board,<br />
their role will be to act as a liaison between the Board and Council to bring the Boards’<br />
concerns forward.<br />
2011 Budget - CAO Wingrove spoke about the budget and noted the process used in the<br />
past. The CAO committed to bring forward details of the BIA’s 2011 budget to Council in<br />
early March in order that it be included in the final version of town budget submitted for<br />
council approval. The CAO advised that in future, the BIA budget needs to be submitted<br />
earlier.<br />
Parking – the Board discussed the budget as it relates to parking revenue and expenses.<br />
The Board requested clarification of the proposed budget. The CAO addressed some of<br />
the Board’s concerns, however, will direct the outstanding matters to the appropriate staff<br />
(revenue transfer, replacing money utilized for the purchase of the Simcoe Street<br />
properties, establishing a reserve fund for future parking expansion). CAO Wingrove<br />
advised that Council has supported a request for a staff report as proposed by Councillor<br />
Hull, to provide a framework on how to move forward with a potential public / private<br />
partnership for tiered parking and other mixed uses be considered for the Downtown core.<br />
The construction of such structure was recommended to begin no later than 2013, in the<br />
2009 Parking Strategy that was prepared by the BA Group.<br />
The Board agreed that with the ongoing construction at the Shipyards and the anticipation<br />
that the construction of the development at the north-west corner of the intersection of<br />
Hurontario and Hume Streets will begin in the near future, that the stage is set for a positive<br />
future for the downtown. The revitalization of the Downtown Core will require additional<br />
parking spaces to service current and future needs.<br />
The Board suggested Collingwood considers implementing a Community Development<br />
Levy similar to such utilized in other Ontario municipalities. The levy is applied to future<br />
developments external of the Downtown Core. The funds generated by the levy would be<br />
utilized to assist the Downtown Core.<br />

REPORT #: C2011 - 06<br />
DATE: February 28, 2011<br />
SUBMITTED TO: Mayor, Deputy Mayor and Council<br />
SUBMITTED BY: Sara Almas, Clerk<br />
SUBJECT:<br />
Annex - 105 Hurontario St<br />
1. RECOMMENDATION:<br />
THAT Council declare 105 Hurontario Street as surplus to the needs of the municipality;<br />
AND FURTHER THAT Council direct staff to commence the process necessary to undertake<br />
the sale in accordance with our Land Disposal By-law.<br />
(Motion proposed by Councillor Chadwick, as deferred Feb 14/11)<br />
Alternatively,<br />
THAT Council herein receive Staff Report C2011-06 for information purposes.<br />
2. SUMMARY AND BACKGROUND:<br />
History<br />
105 Hurontario Street was purchased by the Town in<br />
2002 for $475,000.00 from Canada Trust Mortgage<br />
Company. The purpose of the purchase was to provide<br />
additional office space for municipal staff. The building<br />
currently has 5 private office spaces, 1 boardroom,<br />
kitchen facility, 2 washrooms, 3 entrances, 1 vault, is<br />
set up for 8 other desk spaces and is approximately<br />
3,205 square feet.<br />
The building was occupied by the Planning and<br />
Building Services, with the OPP housing a small<br />
downtown office from a front office located on the<br />
south side of the building. Those departments have<br />
since moved to the third floor of the new Collingwood Public Library building, with the OPP<br />
discontinuing their services provided at the downtown location.<br />
24 of 65
This property was declared surplus in December 2007. In the report provided to Council on<br />
August 25, 2010, staff recommended this property be retained for municipal use. September<br />
13, 2010, a public report went to Council with Council approving to rescind the resolution<br />
declaring 105 Hurontario Street (Annex) as surplus to the needs of the municipality.<br />
Property Value/Assessment<br />
The Municipal Property Assessment Corporation (MPAC) has assessed the value of the land at<br />
$808,250.00. There is an outstanding debenture on the property in the amount of $819,901.09.<br />
Any sale of the Annex would require the money to be placed against the debenture.<br />
Furthermore, the proceeds from the sale would be significantly less than the outstanding<br />
debenture.<br />
Historically, the Town debentures the projects that require financing as one debenture. This<br />
purchase was included in the 2004 debenture that has a principal balance outstanding of<br />
$10,743,491.74. This entire amount would have to be paid off to eliminate the debenture<br />
obligation. However, if the building is sold, the proceeds could be placed in a reserve and<br />
applied against the debenture payment. The annual principal and interest payment is<br />
$83,239.00. The outstanding interest is $363,759.89 for the balance of the debenture term (to<br />
2024).<br />
The Annex is one of the most efficient buildings to operate and will be required until the<br />
necessary renovations to the Town Hall and Station/Museum have be completed to provide the<br />
necessary accessible front counter access for providing services to citizens.<br />
Official Plan/Zoning<br />
The property is currently zoned C1 with an Official Plan designation of Downtown. A schedule<br />
of the permitted uses is attached.<br />
Present Use<br />
With the relocation of the Small Business Enterprise Centre (SBEC) back to the downtown<br />
(formerly located at 30 Mtn Rd), the Annex now houses the SBEC, Economic Development<br />
Department, and 3 Finance Staff. Staff will be presenting a report to Council shortly to<br />
determine if 30 Mountain Road should be declared as surplus to the municipality’s needs and<br />
disposed of accordingly.<br />
3. DISCUSSION:<br />
Considerations<br />
• Office space in the Town Hall is currently not sufficient for the number of staff. As a<br />
result we have already moved 3 finance staff to the Annex and are considering moving<br />
the by-law department here as well in order to alleviate long standing space issues with<br />
this department.<br />
• The SBEC provides a $750.00 (use annual figure to be consistent?) rent to the Town for<br />
use of their space, and no longer uses 30 Mountain Road – which will be considered for<br />
surplus.<br />
• Proceeds from the sale of the property would have to be placed against the debenture<br />
amount of about $820K.<br />
25 of 65
• The 15 to 20 year plan for the Collingwood Public Library, envisioned the expansion of<br />
the library to the 3 rd floor. The third floor of the building was constructed to bear the<br />
additional load capacity should shelving and books be housed on this floor. Since the<br />
opening of the new facility, the Library has experienced a significant increase in the use.<br />
If the trend to increased utilization continues, the Library may consider requesting use of<br />
the 3 rd level as early as 10 years. If this occurs, we will need to look at relocation of<br />
those departments that use the space.<br />
• If the annex is no longer available, the 3 rd floor of the Townhall could be renovated to<br />
provide additional office space. The estimated cost of renovations is $1.2M.<br />
• The Annex building costs approximately $11,000 from an operating perspective, for<br />
cleaning, heat, hydro, insurance, repairs and maintenance.<br />
• We currently pay $12,000 per year for offsite storage – this could possibly be relocated<br />
to the Annex until the space is fully utilized.<br />
• If the Annex is not fully utilized, staff could examine potential partnerships that would<br />
result in some cost sharing, rent payment, etc...<br />
• The Annex building provides our only ground floor meeting space.<br />
• If the annex was sold, the Town would need to retain an easement over the municipal<br />
parking lot, for Arena and Townhall building repairs as needed from time to time.<br />
• Unless severed, the municipal parcel dedicated municipal staff parking behind the annex<br />
would be sold as it forms part of 105 Hurontario Street.<br />
• Potential municipal (own purpose) taxes that could be achieved if this building was sold<br />
and used for commercial – based on the assessment, would be:<br />
808,250 x 1.016422% = $8,215.23 (based on the 2010 tax rate)<br />
4. EFFECT ON TOWN FINANCES:<br />
The 2004 debenture has a principal balance outstanding of $10,743,491.74. If the<br />
building is sold, the proceeds could be placed in a reserve and applied against the<br />
debenture payment. The annual principal and interest payment is $83,239.00. The<br />
outstanding interest is $363,759.89 for the balance of the debenture term (to 2024).<br />
5. DISPOSITION:<br />
If the property is to be sold, Clerk Services would properly dispose of and sell the<br />
property as per the Land Sale By-law.<br />
6. APPENDICES:<br />
No appendices.<br />

Mayor & Members of Council<br />
Nancy Farrer, Acting Director of Planning Services<br />
Deeming By-law No. 2011-026<br />
File No. D1207111<br />
Owner: 6938680 Canada Ltd. – Shoppers Drug Mart<br />
Municipal Address: 151-155, 159 & 175 First Street, Town of<br />
Collingwood, County of Simcoe<br />
1. RECOMMENDATION:<br />
THAT Council enact and pass Deeming By-law No. 2011-026, to deem the lots owned by<br />
6938680 Canada Limited at 151-155, 159 & 175 First Street and a portion of the Beech Street<br />
road allowance north of First Street, a single parcel.<br />
2. SUMMARY AND BACKGROUND:<br />
The subject properties are located north of First Street and on the west and east side of the<br />
former Beech Street road allowance. The subject lands consist of Plan 373, Lots 7 to 10 and Part<br />
Lots 6 & 7, designated as Part 1 & 2 on Plan No. 51R-30302, Town of Collingwood in the County<br />
of Simcoe.<br />
The purpose of this By-law is to ensure that the lots municipally addressed as 151-155, 159 &<br />
175 First Street and a portion of the Beech Street road allowance are merged into one (1)<br />
parcel of land; thus preventing these lots from being separately conveyed, without an<br />
approved Consent (severance) or a Plan of Subdivision.<br />
Town of Collingwood Official Plan, as amended<br />
Schedule “A” titled Land Use Plan of the Town of Collingwood Official Plan designates the<br />
subject property as Mixed Use Commercial Exception Four (MUC-4).<br />

Town of Collingwood Zoning By-law No. 2010-040, as amended<br />
Schedule “A” – Map 17 of the Town of Collingwood Zoning By-law No. 2010-040, as amended,<br />
zones the subject lands Mixed-Use Commercial Exception Four (C4-4).<br />
Deeming By-law No. 2011-026<br />
Registered Plan No. 373 was registered in the mid 1880’s at the Land Registry Division of<br />
Simcoe County. In accordance to subsection 50(4) of the Planning Act, a plan, or part of a<br />
plan, may be deemed not to be a plan of subdivision provided that it has been registered for<br />
eight (8) years or more. Registered Plan No. 373 has been registered for approximately one<br />
hundred and twenty five (125) years.<br />
The purpose of this By-law is to ensure that the lots municipally addressed as 151-155, 159 &<br />
175 First Street and a portion of the Beech Street road allowance are merged into one (1)<br />
parcel of land; thus preventing these lots from being separately conveyed, without an<br />
approved Consent (severance) or a Plan of Subdivision. This will allow the parcel to be<br />
redeveloped and a Site Plan Control Agreement (under separate cover) to be registered as<br />
one contiguous property.<br />
This Deeming By-law (once enacted and passed by Council) will be forwarded to the Town’s<br />
Solicitor to be registered on title. Once registered on title, Deeming By-law No. 2011-026 (see<br />
Appendix “B”) will effectively: 1) prevent the owner from separately conveying the individual<br />
parcels, and 2) permit the development of the subject lands to include a pharmacy and a<br />
medical clinic and retail uses in an existing one storey.<br />
Conclusion<br />
Planning Services recommends that Council enact and pass Deeming By-law No. 2011-026.<br />
