Re-Opening and Amending MM2.12 Authorization to release Section 37 funds to the Sir William Campbell Foundation for Public Realm Improvements on Queen Street West respecting Relic Linear Park - by Councillor Ausma Malik, seconded by Councillor Alejandra Bravo

Relic Linear Park, along the City's right-of-way boulevard, will be connecting green spaces throughout the Grange community. Due to unforeseen construction delays occurring due to City water-main work at and adjacent to the site, funding was needed to winterize the site for mason work during the winter. This funding would ensure the project was completed prior to March 31, 2023 to receive a previously approved Federal grant. The work being completed is along Simcoe Street at Queen Street West, fronting the historic Campbell House Museum. This project is an initiative of the Sir William Campbell Foundation and the Grange community, with the support of Transportation Services, who will maintain the hard landscaping upon completion. The intent of Item 2023.MM2.12 was to transfer a total of $33,000 of Section 37 funds to the Sir William Campbell Foundation to provide one-time capital funding for the purpose of winterizing the Relic Linear Park site for mason work during the winter. The Section 37 funds are from the development at 219 Queen Street West and the development at 426 University Avenue, secured for various purposes, including streetscape improvements and park improvements. Additional unforeseen construction delays and impacts related to the above-mentioned water-main work and the discovery of a portion of an unprotected steam line added expenses but reduced the expenses related to winterization. This Motion seeks to re-open and amend Item 2023.MM2.12 to reflect the modified use of funds. REQUIRES RE-OPENING: City Council Item 2023.MM2.12 (December 14, 2022) only as it pertains to Part 1 of City Council's decision.

of providing one-time capital funding to the Sir William Campbell Foundation to make improvements to the Relic Linear Park site."
