Rob Grech, Environmental Services Coordinator and Mike Matthews, Senior Vice President Network Services, Alectra delivered a PowerPoint presentation regarding Alectra Rear Lot Conversion Initiatives and Stormwater Fee Update.
There was discussion regarding Stormwater rate impacts, and the Committee inquired how the rate increase will be communicated. Staff advised that once the Flood Control Program and Stormwater Fee is approved there will be a communication plan to ensure Markham constituents are aware of the increase, and this includes communication included in the tax notices.
The Committee discussed that the cost of the Rear Lot Conversion Initiative should be covered by the distribution company and not the City. The Committee suggested that further discussion on Rear Lot Conversion Initiative should wait until all Members of Council are present.
