City Council authorize the General Manager, Toronto Water to undertake the preliminary engineering design at a cost of up to $200,000 net of all applicable taxes and charges ($203,520 net of Harmonized Sales Tax recoveries), of a new sanitary sewer on Ridgewood Road for the benefit of certain local residents on Ridgewood Road in Ward 25, Scarborough - Rouge Park, funded from the 2022 Approved Capital Budget and 2023-2031 Approved Capital Plan for Toronto Water.

On the agenda

As the city filed it

The purpose of this report is to seek direction from City Council regarding the cost to fund a preliminary engineering design of a new sanitary sewer on Ridgewood Road in Ward 25, Scarborough - Rouge Park which, if ultimately constructed, would serve only 55 properties, currently serviced by private property septic tanks. Some residents of these properties have expressed an interest to their local Councillor in exploring the possibility of funding the new sanitary sewer construction through a local improvement charge for the benefit of these local residents.

Toronto Water staff have undertaken a basic preliminary cost estimate of the potential associated construction costs. A preliminary engineering design of the sanitary sewer works to the 30 percent design stage would better serve to inform these local residents of the estimated costs, so that they can decide if they wish to support and further pursue a local improvement charge process, whereby the actual cost of the improvement is shared among the benefiting properties. Should a future local improvement charge process proceed and be authorized, Toronto Water would seek to recover the cost of the preliminary engineering design within the local improvement charge as a cost of the work.
