Subject FW: Free Transit Students Brampton.
Students in Brampton Grades 9 10 and 11. Want Free Public Transport. From 6 am to 7 pm. moon to Friday.
Students in Brampton Ontario (Grades 9, 10 and 11 with a Valid Student I.D. ) want a fairer tax system, which would provide enough revenue to pay for fare-Free Transit to Brampton Students form Monday to Friday 6am to 7pm. The provincial and federal government would have to contribute their fair share of funding to Canada's 9th Largest City. The amount of taxes that the riders would have to pay would be lower than the amount they spend each year on the cost of commuting today. Right now, the Canadian government subsidizes road and highways that cars use. With the Fare-Free Transit System for Brampton Students, we could save on the cost of the environment mental pollution and diseases caused by our current dependence on private cars. We need to make our tax dollars benefit the common good. At $2.50 per Student. E-Purse - $2.50 Weekly Pass -$27.00 Monthly Pass -$105.00 Brampton Transit is very expensive. Students are poor and are not working. A Fairer Tax System would provide enough revenue to pay for fare-Free transit to Brampton Students. The provincial and federal governments would have to contribute their fair share of funding to Canada's 9th Largest city. The amount of faxes that Students would have to pay would be lower than the amount they spend each year on the cost of commuting today. Public Transit should be a right for all Students in Brampton. It is an essential right, like public education, libraries, water, doctors and hospitals. It should e funded by the City of Brampton and by the Government revenues. Transit should be accessible to every Student in Brampton. That means regardless of their income, which part of Brampton they live in. All of Brampton Students Grade 9, 10, 11, would be able to travel to and from School From 6am to 7pm Monday to Friday. Can you imagine how empowering it would be to go to school and not have to worry about $2.50 each way. Lets help our Children in Brampton to succeed

Sue Connor
Executive Director, Transit

F 1-1
The Road to Growth
� Based on recommendations in the 2004 Transportation and
Transit Master Plan, Brampton Transit updated its system from
a hub and spoke operation to grid-based in 2005.
� Planning for a bus rapid transit (BRT)
system was taking place at
the same time.
� By 2008, we received funding for
the BRT and in 2010, Züm Queen
Street service was launched.

F 1-2
Surpassing Projections
� With the launch of every new Züm route, we
experienced growth on each corridor: Queen Street,
Main Street, Steeles Avenue and Bovaird Drive.
� Ridership projection for Phase I of
Züm was 30%; ridership grew by
58%.

Current Situation:
Negotiations are commencing with the owner from which property is required, however,approval to commence expropriation of the property requirements is required in theevent negotiated agreements cannot be obtained, so as not to delay construction of theproject in 2015/2016.

Encroachment Application Fee in Specific Circumstances
Contact: Ann Pritchard, Manager of Realty Services, Facility Services, PublicServices, 905.874.2131
Overview:
• On August 6, 2014, By-law 224-2014 was passed to authorize the Manager,Realty Services, to waive an encroachment charge in circumstances whereall the following criteria have been met:
(a) the enclosing hedge, wall or fence encroachment has been in place sinceSpring 2004 or before as evidenced by the City's archival aerial photographyor otherwise, and
(b) with regard to operations, health and safety, it is acceptable tostakeholder staff that the encroachment remains on City property as is orwith modifications, and
(c) there are no recurring enforcement issues on file regarding theencroaching hedge, wall or fence currently being reviewed by RealtyServices, and
(d) the owner of the property from which the encroaching hedge, wall orfence extends has paid the Encroachment Application Fee and has executedthe City's Encroachment Agreement.
• The "encroachment charge" that may be waived pursuant to By-law 224-2014 isthe equivalent of rent payable by the encroacher for his/her use of the City landparcel that is enclosed by the encroaching feature (hedge/fence/wall). Theamount of the encroachment charge varies depending on the size of theencroachment area.
• The standard "Agreement Application Fee" of $250 is payable if an encroacherwishes to have as encroachment situation assessed for ability to enter into anEncroachment Agreement.
• Subsequent to the passage of By-law 224-2014, staff has reconsidered theappropriateness of imposing the Encroachment Application Fee when the othercriteria to justify the waiving of the Encroachment Charge have been met.
• In light of this, this report is recommending that By-law 224-2014 be amended byrevising the fourth criterion as follows:
(d) the owner of the property from which the encroaching hedge, wall orfence extends has executed the City's Encroachment Agreement without therequirement to pay the Encroachment Application Fee.
J2-2
Recommendations:
1. That the report from Ann Pritchard, Manager, RealtyServices, Facility ServicesDivision, Public Services Department, dated January 20, 2015, to the Communityand Public Services Committee meeting of February 18, 2015, entitled"Recommendation Report: Amendment of By-law 224-2014 to WaiveEncroachment Application Fee in Specific Circumstances", be received; and
2. That By-law 224-2014 be modified by deleting criterion number "d)M and replacingit with the following:
"d) the owner of the property from which the encroaching hedge, wall orfence extends has executed the City's Encroachment Agreementwithout the requirement to pay the Encroachment Application Fee."
said amendment to apply in connection with all qualifying EncroachmentAgreements executed on or after January 1, 2015.
Background:
On August 6, 2014, By-law 224-2014 was passed to authorize the Manager, RealtyServices, to waive an encroachment charge in circumstances where all thefollowing criteria have been met:
a. the enclosing hedge, wall or fence encroachment has been in place sinceSpring 2004 or before as evidenced by the City's archival aerialphotography or otherwise, and
b. with regard to operations, health and safety, it is acceptable to stakeholderstaff that the encroachment remains on City property as is or withmodifications, and
c. there are no recurring enforcement issues on file regarding theencroaching hedge, wall or fence currently being reviewed by RealtyServices, and
d. the owner of the property from which the encroaching hedge, wall or fenceextends has paid the Encroachment Application Fee and has executed theCity's Encroachment Agreement.
The overview of the report presented to Council on August 6, 2014 is appended to thisreport as Schedule A, for reference.
J2-3
Current Situation:
The "encroachment charge" that may be waived pursuant to By-law 224-2014 is theequivalent of rent payable by the encroacher for his/her use of the City land parcel thatis enclosed by the encroaching feature (hedge/fence/wall). The amount of theencroachment charge varies depending on the size of the encroachment area.
The standard "Agreement Application Fee" of $250, as authorized by the User Fee Bylaw, is payable if an encroacher wishes to have as encroachment situation assessed forabilityto enter into an Encroachment Agreement. When approval is given for executionof an Encroachment Agreement, the Application Fee is credited towards theEncroachment Charge. When approval is not given for execution otan EncroachmentAgreement, i.e. the encroaching feature cannot be installed or must be removed, as thecase may be, the Application Fee is not reimbursed.
Subsequent to the passage of By-law 224-2014, staff has reconsidered theappropriateness of imposing the Encroachment Application Fee when the other criteriato justify the waiving of the Encroachment Charge have been met.
This reconsideration is in light of the following:
- The existence of long-standing encroachments is often brought to the attention ofRealty Services via a concern with the encroachment expressed by a neighbouror area resident. In these instances where the current concern is resolvable and
the encroachment has otherwise existed without incident or report, i.e. it meetscriteria (a), (b) and (c) in By-law 224-2014, the normal due diligence procedure toinvestigate the acceptability of the encroachment is minimized.
- The imposition of the Encroachment Application Fee also serves the purpose ofacting as a deterrent to requests for permission to encroach for which there is notserious intent to pursue the request. Such a deterrent does not apply to longstanding encroachment situations.
Accordingly, this report is recommending that By-law 224-2014 be amended by revisingthe fourth criterion as follows:
d) the owner of the property from which the encroaching hedge, wall or fenceextends has executed the City's Encroachment Agreement without therequirement to pay the Encroachment Application Fee
It is proposed that the amended By-law be applicable in connection with all qualifyingEncroachment Agreements executed on or after January 1, 2015.
Corporate Implications:
Financial Implications:
The waiver of the Encroachment Application Fee in accordance with therecommendations of this report would result in a very insubstantial loss of income to theDeferred Land Sales Account, projected to be less than $2,000 per year.
Corporate Services - Legal Services will review and approve the form of the requisiteamending by-law.
Strategic Plan:
The recommendation to waive the Encroachment Application Fee when specifiedcriteria are met, is aligned with the Corporate Excellence (Serving) Strategic Planinitiative of Customer Service Excellence, specifically aligned with the tactic ofimplementing a Corporate Customer Service Strategy that delivers service excellencethat reflects a customer-oriented culture.
Conclusion:
This report recommends that By-law 224-2014 be amended to have the effect ofwaiving the requirement for the payment of an Encroachment Application in instanceswhere the criteria specified in this report have been met.

Subject: Recommendation Report: Waiver of Encroachment Charge inConnection With Certain Long-Standing Encroachments
Contact: Ann Pritchard, Manager of Realty Services, Facility Services, PublicServices, 905.874.2131
Overview:
• When an encroachment situation is brought to the attention of Realty Services,staff is responsible for dealing with the matter in accordance with the City'sStandard Operating Procedure for Encroachment Regularization.Encroachments are not permitted on public open spaces, but are permitted incertain circumstances on City boulevards.
• Depending on the circumstances of the encroachment, the encroaching featuremay (a) remain in the boulevard as is, or (b) remain in the boulevard withmodifications, or (c) need to be removed. In instances when an encroachmentremains on City land, and the encroaching feature, such as a hedge, wall orfence, encloses City property for the private use of the adjacent property owner(the "Encroacher"), an Encroachment Agreement ("Agreement") must beexecuted between the Encroacher and the City.
• The Agreement specifies the terms and conditions upon which the Encroachermay continue to have the encroaching feature remain on City property andcontinue to use public boulevard land for private purposes. An AgreementApplication Fee of $250 is payable by the Encroacher if the Encroacherv/ishesto have the encroachment situation assessed for ability to enter into anAgreement.
• The key terms specified in the Encroachment Agreement are: (a) the payment ofan encroachment charge, which is a one-time, rent-equivalent payment thatvaries in amount depending on the size of the City-owned land area enclosed bythe encroaching feature (hedge, wall or fence), (b) the requirementto add theCity as an additional insured to the Encroacher's home insurance policy, and (c)the registration of the Agreement on title to the Encroacher's property.
• Staff is of the opinion, that if an encroaching hedge, wall or fence has been inplace since the Spring of 2004 or before, and there have been no recurringenforcementissues regarding the encroachment, and it is deemed acceptable bystaff for the encroachment to remain in place as is, or with modifications, uponexecution of an Agreement, then the encroachment charge should be waived.
• This report recommends that the Manager, Realty Services be authorized towaive the market-value-based encroachment charge in instances where thecriteria specified in this report have been met.
