5 METHODOLOGY Confirmed Options Collected & Reviewed Operating Costs Confirmed Public Works Processes Estimated Location Dependent Costs Estimated Location Independent Costs Categorized Operational Costs Estimated Depot Costs Combined & Analyzed All Estimated Costs Ranked Options 5

6 KEY ASSUMPTIONS 75 winter events per year on average All sand/salt domes remain Snow plow routes do not change from current - only the cost of getting to plow route starting point is relevant Inflation rate = 1.7% (used to estimate 2019 costs) Diesel price = $0.749/litre (averaged Jan, 2017 Mar. 2018) Fuel consumption = L/km (tandem truck) Current km s driven = 370,000/year Cold storage = reduction in operating costs Operating costs for a new depot would be lower 6

10 RANKED BY ESTIMATED IMPACT Option Change In Operating Costs Winter Summer Admin Total D - 49 Yard & Buckhorn Depot B - 507/36 Depot $19,393 $15,823 ($46,210) ($10,993) $31,375 $14,319 ($56,022) ($10,328) C - Across from Office $33,280 $15,034 ($56,022) ($7,708) A - Status Quo $ 0 $0 ($5,000) ($5,000) E - 507/ Yard + Buckhorn $31,375 $14,319 ($16,499) $29,195 10

11 SUMMARY OF FINDINGS D B C Options Estimated Annual Operating Cost Total Cost Increase from Option D New depot 49 Yard + Buckhorn depot used as cold storage $3,539,260 $0 New single depot Intersection of Hwys. 507/36 $3,539,927 $667 New single depot across the road from municipal office $3,542,547 $3,287 A Status Quo $3,545,254 $5,994 E New depot at 507/36 + Buckhorn and 49 depots as cold storage $3,579,449 $40,189 11
