Microtremor Survey Memo - 3 & 5 Helmcken Road
Geotechnical memo detailing a microtremor survey to estimate depth to bedrock and determine seismic site classification.
PURPOSE OF REPORT
The purpose of this report is to outline a plan for a first-phase implementation of a parks wayfinding strategy which aligns with Council’s financial plan (item C-124 – attached to the report) for 2022-2026.
BACKGROUND
Staff presented a report to Committee of the Whole on December 14, 2021 (attached to the report) outlining the Parks Wayfinding Strategy. It borrows heavily from the City of Victoria’s Parks Signage strategy in both design and in that it is modular, repeatable, and scalable for different park types in the municipality.
PROJECT INFORMATION
The budgeting for the C-124 Parks signage and wayfinding budget item is almost all capital expenditure for the next five years, with only modest increases in operational budget year over year. This capital expense is expected to be allocated to adding $35,000 worth of parks signage each year.
| Costs | FY1 | FY2 | FY3 | FY4 | FY5 | 5-year Total |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Capital | 35,000 | 35,000 | 35,000 | 35,000 | 35,000 | 175,000 |
| Operational | 250 | 500 | 750 | 750 | 1,000 | 3,250 |
| Total | 35,250 | 35,500 | 35,750 | 35,750 | 36,000 | 178,250 |
The City of Victoria has indicated that their signs are between $2600-$3600 to produce, with installation on a concrete pad not included (~$500 more). These signs are designed to be modular with replaceable panels and therefore can be modified without complete replacement in the future should critical features be added to parks.
