• Maureen Gaehring, Senior Community Planner, re Micro Wind

Turbines – Use in Urban Areas 530

650-G Maureen Gaehring, Senior Community Planner provided an update to City Council on the Provincial Legislation regarding the installation and operation of wind turbines and a process to consider a pilot project within the Industrial Park. Ms. Gaehring highlighted the five identified considerations as follows:

• Regulatory - Government of Canada, Province of Alberta, Municipal Utility

• Technical • Operational • Siting • Nuisance

On February 1, 2008 the Government of Alberta issued the Micro-Generation Regulation. This regulation allows Albertans to generate their own environmentally friendly electricity and receive credit for the excess energy sent into the distribution system. Alberta Utilities Commission (AUC) will develop processes to simplify approvals and interconnection agreements between customers and service providers. This regulation has caused changes within the Municipal Utility. Electrical service providers are expected to provide connection services for small micro-generators by January 1, 2009.



530

650-G Ms. Gaehring reviewed three options and the evaluation and recommendation of the Municipal Planning Commission. The recommended option will allow for the permitted use of wind turbines in areas that are generally removed from residential uses where associated impacts can be minimized. The recommendation also allows on a discretionary and reviewable basis the opportunity to explore wind turbine technology in the Parks and Recreation district. A question period followed with respect to:

• Changes to the Land Use Bylaw 4100 that will pursue interests in wind generation to a further degree

• Types of wind turbines • Use of wind generation in the Parks and Recreation districts • Changes in the Provincial Legislation and the suitability of wind

generation in other areas of the City (i.e. residential districts) • Establishing wind generation projects with the College

The following resolution was presented: J.H. CARLSON: BE IT RESOLVED THAT THE Administration report on micro wind turbines use in urban areas and the recommendation to proceed with a Land Use Bylaw Amendment to establish a definition and standards for wind generation and allow for the permitted use in General and Heavy Industrial and the discretionary uses in Parks and Recreations, be received as information and filed AND FURTHER BE IT RESOLVED THAT Development Services proceed with a Land Use Bylaw amendment to establish a definition and standards for wind generation to allow for the permitted use in General and Heavy Industrial areas and the discretionary use in Parks and Recreation. AND FURTHER THAT Ms. Gaehring be thanked for her presentation. PRIOR TO THE ORIGINAL RESOLUTION BEING PRESENTED, THE FOLLOWING AMENDMENT WAS PRESENTED BY ALDERMAN WARD: BE IT RESOLVED THAT the second paragraph of the resolution be amended to add the words “vertical axis” before the phrase wind generation and delete the phrase “and the discretionary use in Parks and Recreation”.

It will include the latest radiological and medical imaging technology, as well as a range of health and ancillary services. The University of Lethbridge and two other sites in the City have been identified as possible locations. The project is described as a First Nations business venture that would fill gaps in local health care services and tap into a worldwide tourism health market. The proposed project includes a three story, 33,000 square foot facility which would include radiological and medical imaging services and doctor’s offices as well as an on-site pharmacy and laboratory. The health centre of excellence would provide local treatment for diabetes, cardio-vascular disease and fetal alcohol spectrum disorder (FASD). The Blood Tribe delegation advised that they will seek federal funding of $3 million for the project from Western Economic Diversification Canada.



625-D

A question period followed with respect to:

• Clarification on the two service components: clinical and research/training

• Location in Lethbridge versus the Blood Tribe Reserve • Services that will be available for a fee and how the services will

Canada • Funding for sustainability of the facility • Economic advantage this facility may have over other similar

businesses in the area • Remaining obstacles to overcome • Developing a Business Plan that addresses staffing and the

Proposed Water and Sewer Rate Increases

650-B 650-D

Chris Spearman, Industrial Association of Southern Alberta advised that the Industrial Association of Southern Alberta is concerned with the proposed increase in water and wastewater rates. The rate increases will have significant impacts on the large volume water users many of which are food processors. The nature of their operations requires large volumes of water which is a direct cost as opposed to an overhead cost. The Association highlighted areas for budget reconsideration as follows:

• Site redevelopment • Energy costs be reviewed • Increases in wages and staffing • Relief of taxation • Corporate overhead allocation increases • Exempting parks

As major employers in the City and large water and wastewater customers, the Association is concerned about the projected increases in rates for water and wastewater for the next three years. Their industries have to be viable and competitive in their businesses. A question period followed with respect to:

• Economic development and the two forms of attracting and retaining businesses

• Benefits of no business or equipment tax • Number of previous year where there was no or minimal

increase in water rates • Mitigating pressures by using grants • Types of employees leaving the industry • Site redevelopment and the suggestion that this should be

funded by other sources rather than utility rates • Range of increases and the justification for the increases • Describing the newly adopted philosophy of exempting parks

from paying water • Defining the change in philosophy • Quantity of water available and if there are any concerns with

production and supply • Conserving in the use of water and energy • Costs of water to businesses when one compares to provincial

and federal costs

WARD: BE IT RESOLVED THAT the communication from Chris Spearman, Chairman, Industrial Association of Southern Alberta, regarding the proposed increases to water and sewer rates, be received as information and filed AND FURTHER BE IT RESOLVED THAT Mr. Spearman be thanked for his presentation.
