(June 14, 2010) Report from Fire Chief and General Manager |
Summary |
Currently, Chapter 387, Carbon Monoxide Detectors, of the City of Toronto Municipal Code requires carbon monoxide detectors to be installed in units which are either on the same floor or two floors above fuel-burning appliances where a building contains multiple occupancies. Chapter 387 also requires a carbon monoxide detector to be installed in all dwelling units which contain a fuel-burning appliance. Typically, although not exclusively, fuel-burning appliances in multiple occupancy buildings are located in the basement. However, some multiple occupancy buildings may contain fuel-burning appliances in roof-top boiler rooms or mechanical penthouses.
It is proposed that Chapter 387 be amended to require carbon monoxide detectors be installed in all dwelling units in a multiple occupancy building which are on the same floor, or within two floors above or below a fuel-burning appliance. The proposed change would provide additional safeguards to residents in multiple occupancy buildings with a fuel-burning appliance located on the roof or in a mechanical penthouse. The change would ensure that residents who live on the two storeys immediately below a fuel-burning appliance located on a rooftop or within a mechanical penthouse have the required carbon monoxide detection. Elevated carbon monoxide levels within a building pose a health risk to residents and a potential for devastating consequences if not detected. |

(June 8, 2010) Report from Fire Chief and General Manager and the Director, Purchasing and Materials Management |
Summary |
The purpose of this report is to obtain Council authority, as required by Financial Control By-law Article 1V, No. 71-11 to enter into a sole source contract with Intergraph Canada Ltd and to request the authority to spend up to the required amount.
Intergraph Canada Limited will provide the Toronto Fire Services with a fully integrated Business Intelligence (BI) solution. The BI Project is intended to allow Toronto Fire Services to extract and integrate data from multiple sources to bridge information gaps and ensure the continuity of information flow from all data tracking systems. Data will be taken primarily from Fire’s Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD) system as well as from the Records Management System (RMS), phone and radio systems. The main objective of the project is to establish a process that will facilitate the measurement of the Toronto Fire Services performance in a manner that is compliant with NFPA 1221 and NFPA1710.
Intergraph Canada Ltd 's Computer Aided Dispatch system has been utilized by the Toronto Fire Services since 2000 and the City currently has a maintenance contract for the CAD system. The City has entered into two separate but related agreements with Intergraph Canada Ltd., a Maintenance Service Agreement (052009-1022) and a Master Services Agreement (112007-1012). The BI solution utilizes the proprietary schema of the CAD data and interfaces seamlessly to the I/CAD and I/Dispatcher components of the existing systems to deliver an effective analysis platform.
The required level of integration with existing proprietary systems as well as contractual obligations for maintenance precludes any competitive procurement. The Toronto Fire Services Communications Division independent Quality Assurance Review recommended the Intergraph Business Intelligence solution. |

1. City Council grant authority to the Fire Chief and General Manager of Toronto Fire Services to enter into a sole source contract with Safetek Emergency Vehicles, the Canadian Dealer for Smeal Fire Apparatus, for the purchase of one (1) demonstrator model rear-mounted 30 meter (105’) tandem axle Smeal aerial ladder mounted on a Spartan Motors custom chassis in the amount of $757,500.00 Cad net of HST on terms and conditions as approved by the Fire Chief and General Manager and in a form acceptable to the City Solicitor. |

(June 9, 2010) Report from Fire Chief and General Manager and the Director, Purchasing and Materials Management |
Summary |
The purpose of this report is to obtain Council authority for the issuance of a Sole Source contract for the purchase of one demonstrator model rear-mounted 30 meter (105’) tandem axle aerial ladder fire apparatus that provides fire pump capabilities, water tower function, and rescue operations at emergency incidents from Safetek Emergency Vehicles, the Canadian Dealer for Smeal Fire Apparatus. The purchase of this aerial device would provide Toronto Fire Services (TFS) with immediate replacement of a 15 year old unit still in front line service, which will then become a back-up when similar units require maintenance.
The cost of a demonstrator model that is currently available for purchase is lower by approximately $70,000 to $100,000 compared to an identical truck at current prices and exchange rate, that is not normally in inventory at Smeal Fire Apparatus. The demonstrator unit, with a purchase price of $757,500 inclusive of all taxes, is $90,013 less than the most recent TFS purchase (RFQ 6115-05-3299, delivered in 2007) and is built to a newer NFPA standard with an engine meeting a higher regulated emission standard, both increasing the cost of all fire apparatus currently built.
The purchase of this unit will allow the City to avoid the usual lag time of up to 14 months between specifying, ordering, staff inspecting the various manufacturing stages, and final delivery of the vehicles. The demonstrator model is not subject to any operational wear and tear prior to acquisition and is not subject to any additional operating or depreciation costs. |

b. exploring more flexible funding models, including base funding, to address the affordability of child care to all families;
c. developing new monitoring and reporting mechanisms that satisfy accountability and governance requirements, provide meaningful data to inform policy, and respect the City's role as consolidated municipal systems manager for children from pre-natal to 12 years of age; and
d. identifying strategies to address base funding pressures that increase by $8 million per annum and will total $35 million by 2012, resulting in service cuts of 3,500 subsidized spaces if not addressed.
2. City Council request that the Province provide an additional $27 million in base funding to address the affordability of child care for all families and $13.5 million in capital funding to mitigate renovation costs in child care centres located outside of schools, with the timing of the provision of these funds to be addressed in the transition agreement identified in recommendation 1.
3.

6.

14. City Council adopt the following resolution:
"Whereas, the vision of the Early Learning Programs was a seamless day with integrated programming for Early Learning Day Care for children 0-12 years; and
Whereas, this program is being implemented in a fragmented way with insufficient resources and effective governance models; and
Whereas, local government and community representatives are concerned that this fragmented implementation will create service gaps and impact on the lives and well-being of children in the City of Toronto;

Summary |
Graffiti Transformation activities involve youth in summer activities that address graffiti prone areas through community murals. This report provides general information on the program activities. In keeping with the City of Toronto Streamlining Policy for Grants requirement to seek Council approval for organizations applying to partnership programs for an increase in their annual allocations, this report also presents allocation recommendations for four applicants that requested additional funds for their 2010 activities. Due to the lack of budget resources through attrition or additional funds approved in the 2010 operating budget, these four applicants have been recommended for allocations at the 2009 level, adjusted for a 2% economic factor increase.
Also consistent with the Streamlining Policy, the Executive Director, Social Development, Finance and Administration approved the sixteen (16) returning organizations requesting flat-line allocations in the 2010 Graffiti Transformation Partnership Program. For 2010, a total of 20 organizations are recommended for Graffiti Transformation allocations at the 2009 level, adjusted for a 2% economic factors increase. |
