Municipality of Clarington Report EGD-024-16 Page 2 Report Overview On April 7, 2016, a Public Information Centre was hosted by the Municipality to present to the public the proposed reconstruction of Lambs Lane from Odell Street to the north limit of Lambs Lane. Lambs Lane is in need of capital improvements to both the Region's and Clarington's infrastructure. At the Public Information Centre proposed infrastructure improvements and options to improve maintenance and garbage collection for the north end of Lambs Lane were presented. The feedback we obtained has been summarized in this report. 1 . Background 1.1. Reconstruction of Lambs Lane The reconstruction of Lambs Lane has been in the Capital budget since 2014. The project is one phase of the neighbourhood reconstruction from north of the Canadian Pacific Railway, east of Scugog Street, south of Fourth Street and west of Elgin Street. The reconstruction is being done in conjunction with the Region of Durham as they have sanitary and watermain needs on the street. The existing dead end at the north end of Lambs Lane currently does not provide an adequate turnaround for service vehicles. Different options were developed to address this and presented at the Public Information Centre and an improved turnaround will be provided as the final part of the design. The proposed works will provide updated sanitary, water and storm servicing as well as improved road structure. This work will meet the needs of existing residents as well as provide for the needs of future development in the area should that occur. Upon completion of the work Lamb's Lane will look very similar to the recently reconstructed Lover's Lane. These improvements were also reviewed with our Operations Staff to ensure they are supportive of the improvements. The Lambs Lane re-construction was approved as part of the 2016 Capital Budget. 2.0 The Public Information Centre The public were invited to attend the Public Information Centre on April 7, 2016, by way of advertisement in the Clarington This Week, announcements were placed on the Municipality's web page, on our Facebook Page and on other social media outlets and notices were hand-delivered to the residents directly affected by the project. The Public Information Centre was held to provide area residents with information about the proposed improvements as well as to garner any insight from residents as to any specific issues that may be present on the street that may not be known to the Municipality. Municipality of Clarington Report EGD-024-16 Page 3 Conceptual boards were presented for the public.
