32 November 16, 2015 Motion Alternative LRT Routes Moved By: Councillor Whillans Whereas Brampton City Council is committed to building a city with exceptional economic, social and post-secondary educational opportunities for all its residents, and Whereas Brampton Council, at its meeting of October 27, 2015, in a 7 to 4 vote, determined the provincial priority route north of Steeles Avenue was not acceptable and would not receive approval of this Council, and that any LRT surface alignment on Main Street north of Nanwood Drive/Etobicoke Creek be considered permanently removed from consideration, and Whereas the Council of the Corporation of the City of Brampton recognizes that participating as a 'connected community' within an integrated regional transit network within the Greater Toronto Hamilton Area is integral to delivering this future success, and Whereas Brampton is a proven leader in municipal transportation and transit systems with measurable success so that as Brampton continues to grow and prosper, it will plan, design and deliver the necessary higher order, public transit solutions necessary to make ours a keystone city within the GTHA, and Whereas Council had not had the benefit of debating or endorsing the 10 alternative alignments to the HMLRT previously explored by staff that had been peer-reviewed by SNC Lavalin, and Whereas there may be an opportunity for a Council approved alignment that could be considered by Metrolinx and the Province, and may be compatible with the construction deadlines of the HMLRT, and Whereas the City of Brampton's Planning and Infrastructure Services Department has already undertaken a broadly scoped review of higher order transit alternatives north of Steeles Avenue, and Whereas each of these alternative routes was examined in comparison to a specific, simplified, route developed on provincial, as opposed to local Brampton priorities which conform with the Provincial Places to Grow Legislation for Brampton s Urban Growth Centre, and Whereas the motion passed on October 27, 2015 directs staff to make the necessary adjustments to the Transportation and Transit Master Plan. Therefore be it Resolved: That the Planning and Infrastructure Services Department reframe its review of the alternative, higher, order public transit routes previously examined, with a view to recommending up to three preferred alternative routes to connect to the Downtown GO station, for Council s consideration; and That the three preferred alternatives presented, take into account Brampton's Strategic Plan, Transportation and Transit Master Pan, Council s priority of Regional connectivity, both northsouth and east-west, long term financial plan, Provincial Policy Statement, Provincial Growth plan, and Brampton s economic and job growth objectives; and That a report presenting staff's best professional recommendations be brought forward for public review and debate on or before March 31, 2016.
