2.6. Budget and Financials
The City Hall Square Plaza project is one of the six sub-projects identified in the Investing in Canada Infrastructure Program – Community, Culture and Recreation Stream Grant (ICIP-CCR) as outlined in Council Report C167/2019. The award of grant funding will be subject to a competitive process, where the merits of the City’s application will be weighed against those of competing municipalities’ applications.
The grant, should the City be successful, will leverage Federal and Provincial grant funding of up to 40% and 33.33% of eligible costs respectively. The City is responsible for funding the remaining 26.67% of the eligible costs and 100% of the ineligible costs.
Council Report C167/2019 recommended that the City Hall Square and Civic Esplanade project (PLN-021-07) funding be directed to the new ICIP-CCR project (PFO-011-20) for the 2020 8-year Capital Budget and be deemed as placeholder funding, ensuring that these funds remain allocated as matching funding for this grant. (CR529/2019)
As indicated in the report, the City’s (ICIP-CCR) “Connecting People and Places” project is comprised of six sub-projects, with a total estimated cost of $57.4M. Net of $20M and $16.66M in Federal and Provincial funding, respectively, City costs are estimated at $20.7M. Of the $20.7M total, $4.6M is allocated in the year 2020 and will be the funding source for front-end project services, including design services.
