Authority to Enter into Agreement with Scarborough Health Network for the Alteration of City’s Watermain and Sewer - by Councillor Jennifer McKelvie, seconded by Councillor Paul Ainsle

Within the Site, the City has existing storm and sanitary sewers and a watermain. As part of its Project, Scarborough Health Network advises that it needs to relocate or alter the existing storm and sanitary sewers and watermain, or a portion of same, within the above noted Site. Toronto Water generally installs, alters and/or relocates its own infrastructure. Scarborough Health Network, through its contractor, is seeking to relocate or alter the City's sewer and water infrastructure to expedite the completion of the renovation and expansion of its emergency department. Authorizing Scarborough Health Network, through its contractor, to undertake the work would result in better coordination of the construction activities and reduce potential delays at a key access point for emergency services at Scarborough Health Network. City staff is seeking authority from City Council to enter into an agreement with Scarborough Health Network to permit Scarborough Health Network to relocate or alter the City's existing storm and sanitary sewers and watermain, or a portion of same, within the above noted Site and to enter into any necessary agreement or agreements or amend any existing agreement or agreements to ensure the necessary land interests for the City are secured for the City's sewer and water infrastructure within the Site.
