OPENING

 

Mayor Nenshi called for a moment of quiet contemplation at today’s Meeting.

 

Mayor Nenshi then extended congratulations, on behalf of City Council and all Calgarians, to the Calgary Stampederes and the Calgary Dinos football teams that made it to the top of their divisions. The University of Calgary Dinos football team also delivered a masterful performance against Laval Rouge et Or in the Vanier Cup, coming within five points of the National Championship. Mayor Nenshi thanked Wayne Harris and the entire Dinos team and stated that they have made Calgary proud. He then extended congratulations to Laval Rouge et Or on their Vanier Cup win.

 

The Mayor further commented that the Calgary Stampeders put on an amazing show of strength and skill at the 104th Annual Grey Cup against the Ottawa Redblacks and that Bo Levi Mitchel and the team should be commended for giving Calgary a CFL season for the history books. He advised that, although another outcome would have been preferable, Calgary is extremely proud of their Stampeders but congratulations must be extended to the Ottawa Redblacks on their win.

 

Mayor Nenshi assured Council that he would fulfill the obligations set out in the terms of bets made on these games at some point during future Council meetings.

QUESTION PERIOD

 

(1)    Budget and Operational Impacts relating to Snow Clearing (Councillor Pootmans)

 

What are the budget and operational impacts due to the slow start to the winter season and how has this affected the snow and ice control budget?

 

Malcolm Logan, General Manager, Transportation, responded by stating that Calgary did experience a very mild spring which resulted in a positive variance of $3.8 million in Snow and Ice Control. Calgary is currently five or six weeks into the regular snow and ice control season and thus far, there has only been one weather event that resulted in full program use. There are still staff working every day, but they are currently undertaking alternative work and as a result the program is in zero expenditure. That being the case, there are savings in material expenditures and potential overtime that would be required for large events. It is anticipated that should things continue in this manner, there could be a savings of $5 million by year end. This money automatically flows into the Snow and Ice Control Reserve, as per Council Policy, until that Reserve has been topped up. This year began with $8.9 million towards the maximum reserves which will be used to offset any potential future overages. 

 

 


 

(2)     Importing Dogs into Alberta (Councillor Chu)

 

There are animal rescue agencies in Calgary where citizens can adopt dogs but there are also rescue organizations in the United States that are shipping dogs to Alberta due to the fact that this province has fewer restrictions in terms of adopting animals. There are also no restrictions in terms of shipping dogs into the province. The Orange County Humane Society has been in contact with my office, and confirmed that there is a group from California that is shipping pit bulls into Alberta on an almost weekly basis. Calgary already has a large number of dogs in need of homes. Is there something we can, or should, do to curb the importing of dogs into Calgary?    

 

Kurt Hanson, General Manager, Community Services, responded by stating that this is an issue that has come to the forefront because of breed specific bans being proposed in Montréal. However, that particular issue is still before the Courts in Quebec. Mr. Hanson assured Council that Community Standards is working closely with the Calgary Humane Society, and other rescue organizations, regarding the situation in Montreal as well as in terms of importing animals from other countries. Mr. Hanson then stated that he would provide Council with a more detailed response, in writing, once he has obtained more information on this topic.

 

 

(3)     Municipal Government Spending (Councillor Demong)

 

The C.D. Howe Institute recently released their evaluation on Municipal Government Spending and Calgary was awarded an A- rating.  The biggest issue noted in this evaluation was the comparisons between municipal government spending last year as compared to this year.  It can be difficult for a trained accountant, let alone the an average person, to determine what governments have said they would spend in a year as compared to what they have actually spent when the following Budget comes forward due to the way we do our iterations on a quarterly basis. Mr. Sawyer, have you read the report and do you have ideas how we can make it an easier to do comparisons from previous years?

 

Eric Sawyer, Chief Financial Officer, reported that he was familiar with the report and that this particular issue does come up annually. It comes down to the basis of accounting in the financial statements. Financial statements reflect an accrual-accounting basis of reporting as opposed to budgets which are reflective of the cash based accounting approach to operational budgeting.  Reconciliations between these differing accounting methods helped Calgary to achieve the A- rating. Mr. Sawyer was not aware of any other municipality in Alberta that is doing their budgets on an accrual-accounting basis, and financial statement approach.  We are familiar with it, and we do reconcile to it but it is unlikely that we move to a full accrual budgeting statements approach. CFO Sawyer assured Council that Administration would provide updates as required.
