It
is our understanding that tenders have now closed for the multi-year neighborhood
renewal contracts, and that Administration has completed initial community
consultation for those neighborhoods where reconstruction is scheduled to
commence in 2013.
Therefore,
please provide an update at the June 26, 2012. Transportation and
Infrastructure Committee meeting responding to the following:
a)
an outline of the planned schedule for reconstruction and renewal neighborhoods
based on the outcome of the tenders;
b)
now that there is more certainty on construction prices, please outline
next priorities for candidate reconstruction neighborhoods beyond those
currently outlined on the city neighborhood renewal web page and recent
2012-2014 Capital Budget materials;
c)
describe what improvements are being made to community consultation
processes to ensure more opportunity to engage communities in addressing
traffic safety initiatives and better coordination with great neighborhoods
work, and to improve communication of the neighborhood reconstruction
programs; and,
d)
outline progress on incorporating alley renewal and rural unpaved roadway
rehabilitation into the neighborhood renewal program.
