The zoning bylaw regulates exactly what land can be

0:09

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

used for and what can be built in different areas.

0:13

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

The zoning bylaw amendment

0:19

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

application submitted seeks to amend the zoning of the property from DA

0:23

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

development exception to an E2 employment exception zone

0:27

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

to permit the data center.

0:30

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

A zoning bylaw amendment application is required as the property's current D8

0:34

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

zone only permits an existing home and agricultural uses.

0:38

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

The intent behind the D zone is to limit permitted uses

0:42

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

to existing land uses to encourage new development to conform to the official

0:46

S… Speaker 3 (MR4)

plan. The

0:52

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

applicant was provided with a submission requirements checklist

0:56

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

following a pre -consultation meeting.

0:58

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

Through the pre -consultation and official application submission

1:02

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

process,

1:03

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

City and regional departments and agencies provide applicants with

1:07

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

a list of required materials,

1:09

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

including studies and plans.

1:11

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

Over 20 experts from different areas from these departments and agencies

1:15

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

review all of the provided studies before any recommendation

1:19

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

can be made.

1:20

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

Here is a summary of required

1:24

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

studies and reports that have been submitted by the applicant.

1:27

S… Speaker 3 (MR4)

On

1:33

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

March 30th,

1:34

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

following staff's recommendation,

1:35

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

Planning and Development Committee referred the application back to staff.

1:39

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

for the applicant to continue to work on issues outlined in the report.

1:43

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

Staff will report back to Planning and Development Committee once

1:47

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

the submission is received that adequately addresses issues outlined in the report.

1:51

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

These included staff's recommendation that the site and building

1:55

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

be redesigned for the main entrance and office components and parking to phase

1:59

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

10th line west.

2:00

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

Confirmation of connection to

2:04

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

sanitary services.

2:05

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

Technical information and clarification related to stormwater management.

2:10

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

the submission of satisfactory servicing strategy and

2:15

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

a study outlining the data center's water demands,

2:17

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

cooling strategy and build -out schedule,

2:20

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

additional zoning details including updated drawings,

2:24

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

materials and studies,

2:25

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

the requirement for justification and

2:30

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

a parking utilization study to justify the reduction of bicycle and standard parking spaces,

2:34

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

and updates and clarifications on drawings,

2:37

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

materials and studies.

2:46

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

Following the March 30th PDC meeting,

2:49

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

the applicant made a resubmission which addressed some of staff's concerns.

2:53

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

The applicant is still working with electric utilities to resolve their comments

2:57

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

and has currently submitted a parking utilization study in

3:01

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

support of the parking efficiency and archaeological assessment.

3:04

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

These items are still under review.

3:06

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

Staff are also in discussions with the applicant regarding site design and

3:11

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

building design.

3:11

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

Once all concerns are adequately addressed,

3:14

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

staff will return to the Planning and Development Committee.

3:17

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

Planning staff will make a recommendation and council will

3:21

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

make a decision on the application.

3:22

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

If the application is approved,

3:24

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

a site -specific zoning bylaw will be prepared by staff and brought to a

3:28

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

future council meeting.

3:29

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

The applicant is working through the site plan process,

3:32

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

which cannot be approved until the zoning bylaw amendment application is approved.

3:37

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

During the site plan process,

3:39

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

detailed design of the site is reviewed.

3:42

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

If the zoning file amendment application and site plan applications are

3:46

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

reviewed, the applicant can apply for building permits.

3:49

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

The applicant is still working for the conditions associated with their severance

3:53

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

application before the new property for the data center can be applied on.

3:57

S… Speaker 3 (MR4)

So there

4:04

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

are ways to get involved in the application process.

4:06

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

You can submit a letter to the email shown here.

4:10

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

Sorry,

4:12

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

it's application .info at mssela .ca.

4:16

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

And a request can also be made to be added

4:20

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

to the notification list to receive updates on this application,

4:24

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

including future committee dates.

4:25

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

The City is also undertaking a comprehensive review of

4:30

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

the emerging sector.

4:30

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

This review will include additional opportunities for community engagement,

4:35

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

which will help inform future policy direction and ensure that economic

4:39

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

growth is balanced with environmental sustainability and community well -being.

4:43

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

Staff plan to bring a report to council later this year.

4:47

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

It will provide a more detailed analysis and recommendations on

4:51

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

how the city plans to manage data centers going forward.

4:54

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

We also recommend that you monitor upcoming

4:58

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

council agendas on the city's...

5:20

S… Speaker 4 (MR4)

Okay, so we're undertaking a more comprehensive

5:25

S… Speaker 4 (MR4)

review of this emerging sector.

5:26

S… Speaker 4 (MR4)

This review will include additional opportunities for community policy

5:33

S… Speaker 4 (MR4)

direction and ensure economic work.

5:34

S… Speaker 4 (MR4)

Staff

5:39

S… Speaker 4 (MR4)

plan to report to council later this year.

5:42

S… Speaker 4 (MR4)

It will provide a more detailed analysis and recommendations on how the city plans

5:46

S… Speaker 4 (MR4)

to manage data centers going forward.

5:52

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

So just to reiterate that,

5:54

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

so if you've seen some of the work that's happening in other communities,

5:57

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

like Hamilton, for example,

5:58

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

they put a pause on it while they're doing this process of

6:03

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

getting a more comprehensive study.

6:04

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

One of the things that we're working on,

6:06

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

I've spoken with the team at ProLodge,

6:08

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

is putting forth a motion.

6:11

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

And based on the conversation here,

6:13

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

based on the questions we received from before,

6:15

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

and based on the comprehensive study that we're working on,

6:18

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

put forth a motion that becomes guardrail so that we're ensuring that any

6:22

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

data center, any projects that are coming forward,

6:24

S… Speaker 3 (MR4)

all are within,

6:25

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

as is described here,

6:27

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

a comprehensive, safe community piece.

6:29

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

I'd love to get your question now,

6:32

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

but is that going to start a bunch of questions before we get to the

6:36

S… Speaker 5 (MR4)

question part?

6:38

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

Yes, it will.

6:39

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

Okay, so out of perspective,

6:41

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

can you please make sure that I get you first when we get to the question part?

6:44

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

Maybe I'll just talk to you on the side to see if we can insert it.

6:47

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

But I'd like to bring our ProLogist team up here to set up.

6:50

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

So give us a quick second here to transition the laptops.

6:53

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

And we have the live feed working now.

6:56

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

Sorry about the hiccup of that,

6:57

S… Speaker 5 (MR4)

but the live feed is running.

6:58

S… Speaker 5 (MR4)

Here's your mic for that.

8:07

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

Thank you so much for your time this evening and for obviously an incredible turnout.

8:11

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

Just to set the stage,

8:14

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

there's two goals that we have for this evening.

8:16

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

First and foremost is to listen.

8:18

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

We're here to take notes.

8:19

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

If we can't answer your question,

8:21

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

our promise to you is to take back and come back to

8:25

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

Councilor Ede with a well -thought -out and research answer for

8:29

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

whatever question you may have in your mind.

8:32

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

Just by way of introduction,

8:33

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

we'll get through some of the team intros first here and then get into our presentation.

8:37

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

My name is Bill Bates.

8:39

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

My role here at ProLoges Canada is Vice President Investment Officer

8:43

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

based here in Toronto.

8:44

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

I've been involved in this project directly from

8:48

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

its initial conception.

8:49

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

We're sitting at the kitchen table with Theresa Huster and her boys

8:53

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

discussing the eventual disposition of this property and the good work that

8:58

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

we did on the adjacent site.

9:00

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

Most importantly,

9:01

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

in the context of this meeting,

9:02

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

I'm very proud to share with you that I'm actually a fourth generation Mississauga resident

9:07

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

and very proud to be raising the fifth of our family here

9:11

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

in Mississauga.

9:12

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

I'll pass on to Brett for some intros to the rest of our team.

9:15

S… Speaker 3 (MR4)

Thanks,

9:17

S… Speaker 3 (MR4)

Bill. I'm Brett Skillingstad,

9:19

S… Speaker 3 (MR4)

and I lead the pre -construction efforts for Apologist Data Centers.

9:23

S… Speaker 3 (MR4)

I've been in the construction industry since I was 19 years old and it's provided a ton for me

9:27

S… Speaker 3 (MR4)

and my family and I started building data centers back before most people even knew what

9:31

S… Speaker 3 (MR4)

they were and they're an exciting sector that's getting a lot of buzz

9:35

S… Speaker 3 (MR4)

and we're here today to really just share a lot about how these buildings operate and

9:39

S… Speaker 3 (MR4)

what they do.

9:40

S… Speaker 3 (MR4)

They're a really interesting product that provide a lot of careers and opportunities

9:44

S… Speaker 3 (MR4)

for people just like myself and a lot of my family members and friends who work in the construction

9:49

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

and this industry.

9:51

S… Speaker 3 (MR4)

Excited to hear your questions and give you some good answers.

9:54

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

Yeah,

9:57

S… Speaker 5 (MR4)

good evening, everybody.

9:58

S… Speaker 5 (MR4)

Mike Kenney with Prologis.

10:00

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

I work on the investments and development team and work very closely with Bill

10:04

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

and the rest of the Toronto team.

10:06

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

Very glad to be here tonight and like these guys have said,

10:09

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

you know, glad to answer and address all the questions you have.

10:13

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

So, thank you.

10:24

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

Just a little bit about where we go,

10:26

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

but maybe before I'd be remiss if I didn't thank councillors Reid

10:30

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

and McFadden for obviously pulling together a great group.

10:34

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

And for the constructive engagement.

10:36

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

I mean, this is a space where we're not hiding from in the sense that there

10:40

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

are a tremendous amount of data points where in

10:45

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

the media some of them are accurate,

10:46

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

a lot of them are not.

10:47

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

And on top of that,

10:49

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

this is just part of our DNA in terms of how we like to go about our business and development.

10:54

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

We don't assume anything about what you know about Colage,

10:57

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

so we'll explain a little bit about our company,

10:59

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

our DNA,

10:59

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

our history here in Mississauga,

11:01

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

probably more importantly how we actually engage and work

11:05

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

with communities.

11:06

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

Then we're going to dive into the project itself,

11:09

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

a little bit about its conception and where we think we can take it going forward.

11:13

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

What the site's going to look like,

11:15

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

I know you've seen photos,

11:16

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

but we'll get an opportunity about what went into the design,

11:19

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

how the building's going to function.

11:21

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

That led itself to some construction and timing so that everyone knows exactly

11:25

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

what to expect next.

11:26

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

Tons of questions on generators,

11:29

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

tons of questions on stormwater.

11:30

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

Again,

11:31

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

that's the topic we're going to highlight in this presentation.

11:33

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

And finally,

11:35

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

we'll talk about what the economic impacts can be moving forward and

11:39

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

wrap up with it.

11:40

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

A little bit about who we are.

11:45

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

Prologis is an organization that's global in nature.

11:47

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

We're 40 -plus years old in terms of developing

11:51

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

the critical infrastructure.

11:53

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

to keep our economies moving.

11:54

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

So think logistics,

11:56

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

warehouses, data centers.

11:57

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

We have a 25 -year -plus track

12:01

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

developing data centers and providing critical infrastructure.

12:05

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

Stateside,

12:07

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

I'm actually very keen to investigate bringing more of this into Canada

12:11

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

in a sense that,

12:13

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

as we've all heard,

12:14

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

our prime minister has actually asked for more critical computing to be done domestically

12:18

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

here in Canada.

12:19

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

So that's actually what this project is about.

12:22

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

In general,

12:23

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

as you can see on the screen,

12:25

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

just over 20 years operating in Mississauga,

12:29

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

roughly a 4 .5 million square foot portfolio,

12:33

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

which translates into servicing 59 businesses,

12:35

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

creating about 14 ,000 jobs here.

12:39

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

One of the most shining examples I can give you from a local context is

12:44

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

actually,

12:45

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

obviously,

12:47

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

an iconic Canadian brand.

12:49

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

This is a business that,

12:50

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

believe it or not,

12:52

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

was actually operating on a relatively small footprint

12:56

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

right on Argentina.

12:58

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

We just recently finished building about a million square feet here in the GTA and

13:02

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

about another million and a half.

13:03

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

So our business is global in nature,

13:06

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

but that doesn't necessarily mean we're just catering to

13:09

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

businesses outside of Canada.

13:10

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

We actually want to do more.

13:11

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

One

13:16

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

of the things that I want to be clear,

13:18

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

too, is that we're not an operator of these facilities.

13:21

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

We're a developer.

13:21

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

One of the areas that is very,

13:25

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

very important to us,

13:27

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

designing the right facility,

13:29

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

excuse me,

13:30

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

for the right business.

13:32

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

I think maybe what we're going to do next,

13:37

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

a little bit about

13:42

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

community engagement.

13:43

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

This is how we go about our business.

13:45

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

We listen.

13:47

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

We want to accommodate questions.

13:48

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

We want to incorporate those aspects of design into

13:53

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

our facilities,

13:53

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

but also engage with the community.

13:56

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

This is our most recent impact day.

13:59

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

It's a day where 100 % of our company is

14:03

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

going out into the community and actively engaged.

14:07

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

It's about 3 ,000 employees globally.

14:10

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

This is the restore with Habitat for United.

14:14

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

Excuse me.

14:15

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

Habitat for Humanity in this,

14:18

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

excuse me.

14:19

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

Yeah,

14:30

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

so I'd like to just kind of,

14:32

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

just again,

14:33

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

just spring things and just really,

14:35

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

you know,

14:35

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

very high level,

14:37

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

what is a data center?

14:38

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

So data centers are secure buildings that,

14:42

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

you know, store computer equipment.

14:44

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

Each one of us interacts with data centers every day,

14:48

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

whether it's online banking,

14:50

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

you know,

14:52

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

we

14:56

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

interact with data centers.

15:00

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

maps for directions data centers have been around for decades

15:04

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

there's actually a few here in Mississauga and and so you know we

15:08

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

really rely on them on a daily basis getting

15:13

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

a little narrower as far as with respect to this site and why

15:17

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

this site so as the planning staff mentioned we're proposing

15:21

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

one building here it's a two -story data

15:26

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

center about 230 000 square feet

15:30

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

And when we're looking for data center sites,

15:33

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

we're always looking for opportunities to develop within the

15:37

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

existing context of a community.

15:40

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

And so what

15:44

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

really appealed here,

15:45

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

and Bill can maybe add on a little bit with the

15:50

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

Hustler family,

15:51

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

but this is an existing industrial area.

15:56

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

it was very much a local project and this data center is just one

16:00

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

aspect of this overall local logistics project that we're

16:04

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

doing and so you know it all started here as just a local local

16:09

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

level project and then the other big thing that we look for

16:13

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

is proximity to infrastructure

16:17

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

And so in this case,

16:18

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

it's right next to transmission lines.

16:20

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

We're not having to build new transmission lines across

16:24

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

other properties.

16:25

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

And so that's very appealing.

16:27

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

Regarding traffic.

16:29

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

So during construction,

16:31

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

there will be construction traffic.

16:33

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

But we will work closely with the city and comply with laws

16:38

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

and regulations regarding traffic coming out of the

16:42

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

site. And then once the site is built,

16:44

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

we don't anticipate much traffic.

16:46

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

It would just be...

16:48

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

technicians and contractors in and out of the site just like any other any

16:54

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

other business in the area the other thing

16:58

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

i want to talk about is utilities understandably utilities

17:02

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

and data centers on utilities

17:07

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

is a big concern we totally get that and

17:11

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

so let's talk about water first so the regional

17:15

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

appeal has confirmed that there is existing capacity in the system

17:19

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

and there will be no impact

17:23

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

to residential use.

17:24

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

Regarding

17:31

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

power,

17:35

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

so we are funding 100 %

17:40

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

of any upgrades required.

17:42

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

Now

17:47

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

I'd like to chat about water.

18:03

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

Thank you.

18:04

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

Thank you guys for just allowing me to just finish.

18:06

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

We don't have time for comments and questions,

18:07

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

so just allowing me to get through his piece.

18:09

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

Appreciate that.

18:10

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

So we'll be using a closed loop

18:14

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

water system here,

18:15

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

which means it's filled up at the beginning,

18:17

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

and then the water just circulates in the

18:21

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

same loop.

18:22

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

So there's no cooling water that's discharged into

18:26

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

municipal sewers or the environment.

18:29

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

And as far as the usage,

18:31

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

so the estimated maximum daily usage is about

18:35

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

2 ,000 liters,

18:36

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

which is the equivalent to an entire hockey team showering

18:40

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

after a game.

18:41

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

So it's a lie.

18:42

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

It's a lie.

18:43

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

Regarding lighting.

18:45

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

Regarding lighting.

18:51

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

Thank you, everybody.

18:52

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

Thank you.

18:53

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

If you're just going to ring us the handout,

18:55

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

we can move to the Q &A.

18:56

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

We share

19:02

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

our lighting plans with the city,

19:04

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

and we will make sure to use blinders such that there's not light pollution beyond

19:08

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

the property light.

19:10

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

Again, just want to show a larger rendering of the site.

19:14

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

So we take a lot of pride in our design of our buildings.

19:18

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

And so in this case,

19:19

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

you can see we have glass paneling on the facade to

19:24

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

kind of fit in with the area.

19:26

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

We've got nice landscaping along the building.

19:28

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

So we really make a strong...

19:35

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

So here's an aerial of the site.

19:37

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

Again,

19:39

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

just kind of a contextual area to show that this is an existing industrial

19:43

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

and has sort of a minimal.

19:47

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

All right,

19:49

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

so now I'd like to turn it over to Brett to talk a little more about the construction process.

19:53

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

Thanks,

19:54

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

Mike. So you've seen a little bit about the facility.

19:58

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

I want to talk about kind of where we...

20:00

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

and check on what Connor shared.

20:02

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

So right now we're still in the SPA process.

20:04

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

He outlined how to get involved and listen and be engaged in that process so

20:09

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

the counselor read.

20:09

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

We'd encourage you to do that.

20:11

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

You can see a high level schedule that we've planned based on that SPA process wrapping

20:15

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

up here in Q3.

20:17

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

And the instruction would be going on from September into

20:21

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

the end of 2028.

20:23

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

Currently right now on the site.

20:25

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

That's correct.

20:27

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

2028.

20:30

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

Currently on the site is the step -down yard that's being constructed,

20:34

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

and mass grading is occurring right on the project.

20:37

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

It's a projection.

20:45

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

So

20:50

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

what to expect?

20:51

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

So,

20:52

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

backup

21:02

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

generators.

21:03

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

Backup

21:12

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

generators are not used for primary power generation.

21:15

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

They're used for when the utility power fails.

21:17

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

And they're designed and maintained to ensure that the sound levels are in compliance

21:22

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

with all of the MECP requirements as well as all of the emissions.

21:25

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

We've submitted those studies and we ensure and take pride in ensuring

21:29

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

that these units are compliant with all local jurisdiction requirements.

21:33

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

Construction traffic will

21:37

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

work with the local jurisdiction to ensure that we do not disrupt the area and

21:41

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

we find adequate off -site parking so that we don't have people parking on the streets and we're not a

21:46

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

nuisance to any of our neighbors.

21:47

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

It's very important.

21:48

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

I've built a lot of these projects.

21:49

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

I've been out there in the field.

21:51

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

Having parking for the crate craft is really important.

21:54

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

And getting the shuttles to service and get them to and from the site is really a big part of all of our project

21:59

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

plans.

21:59

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

This project,

22:01

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

data centers,

22:02

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

secure sensitive information.

22:03

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

That's a big part of having them located here in Toronto.

22:08

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

And we'll have features such as fire protection systems,

22:11

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

security,

22:12

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

fencing,

22:13

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

to make sure that people stay.

22:16

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

out of areas that are not supposed to be.

22:18

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

So as I mentioned,

22:21

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

the generators are not used for normal operations.

22:23

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

There's limited testing,

22:25

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

and they're regulated for all of the local emissions.

22:27

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

Comments about stormwater were brought up in the March 30th,

22:31

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

and our design team has begun to address those.

22:35

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

Part of this campus that we're looking to develop,

22:38

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

as you mentioned,

22:39

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

was originally a farm.

22:41

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

And so a farm,

22:42

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

by nature, does not have any stormwater mitigation remedies.

22:46

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

Part of our design for this campus,

22:48

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

as we evolve it,

22:49

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

is to mitigate and decrease any runoff by retaining

22:53

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

it on site.

22:54

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

So that's a big thing that we do on all of our campuses when we're building an industrial

22:58

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

project, a warehouse,

22:59

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

or a data center,

23:00

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

is looking at

23:02

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

100 -year storms,

23:03

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

and understanding how much rain is going to be on this site,

23:05

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

and where does that rain and water go.

23:08

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

And we have to retain it and keep it on the site to keep a lower amount of

23:12

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

water going into the stormwater system than the current conditions

23:16

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

as it is a farm today.

23:18

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

So the site's designed to manage all of that,

23:21

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

and our modeling shows that we'll have less runoff in the future state

23:25

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

during major storms.

23:28

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

Some of the benefits I mentioned when I introduced myself were about the jobs

23:33

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

and opportunities.

23:33

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

We did a study based on the overall size of this project,

23:38

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

which is around 443 million.

23:40

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

And you can see the statistics right there.

23:43

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

This is going to help support,

23:44

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

in a given year,

23:46

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

2 ,000 full -time equivalent jobs.

23:57

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

We expect the peak

24:02

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

of tradecraft directly working on this project for over two years is going

24:06

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

to be around 350 people,

24:07

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

which equates to around 797 full -time equivalent jobs

24:12

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

in a given year.

24:12

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

The impact on the governmental revenue is around $10 million.

24:16

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

So once operating this

24:20

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

facility,

24:22

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

in its first year,

24:23

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

is going to have around 75 full -time

24:27

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

equivalent jobs created across Canada,

24:30

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

as well as the 6 .3 full -time equivalent jobs.

24:34

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

Thank

24:39

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

you so much.

24:42

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

It's like

24:50

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

a government revenue living around $460 ,000.

24:52

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

Overall,

24:54

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

this project is estimated to generate more than $8 .3 million in development charges.

25:02

S… Speaker 4 (MR4)

And annually,

25:03

S… Speaker 4 (MR4)

it will generate 1 .6 million in property taxes to

25:07

S… Speaker 4 (MR4)

go back to this community.

25:08

S… Speaker 4 (MR4)

So for the current

25:12

S… Speaker 4 (MR4)

project status,

25:13

S… Speaker 4 (MR4)

we've secured an erosion and settlement control permit to master

25:17

S… Speaker 4 (MR4)

the site, which is what we're doing right now.

25:20

S… Speaker 4 (MR4)

And the construction is underway for the permitted step -down yard,

25:24

S… Speaker 4 (MR4)

a small area that lowers the power to the right voltage before entering the facility.

25:29

S… Speaker 4 (MR4)

And we're still working in the building permit process and finishing the SPA

25:33

S… Speaker 4 (MR4)

process.

25:34

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

And

25:40

S… Speaker 3 (MR4)

that brings us to the end.

25:46

S… Speaker 3 (MR4)

Alright, so I'm going to ask Aiden for our city planning team.

25:49

S… Speaker 3 (MR4)

So one of the things that we're reiterating through this whole process is

25:53

S… Speaker 3 (MR4)

the fact that they have not been,

25:55

S… Speaker 3 (MR4)

they still have to come back for resubmission.

25:58

S… Speaker 3 (MR4)

So Aiden as a management plan can explain that process and want to just

26:02

S… Speaker 3 (MR4)

reassure them that they're not at a point where this is appropriate.

26:14

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

the application for rezoning is not approved yet.

26:16

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

So we have a planning and development committee in March where we presented the

26:20

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

information report and the recommendation to refer back to staff.

26:24

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

So any timeline for Prologis' presentation

26:28

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

are just projections.

26:29

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

If they were to be approved,

26:30

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

this is what they anticipated the construction schedule.

26:32

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

Yeah,

26:39

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

sure. Some of the power work doesn't require it.

26:41

S… Speaker 1 (MR4)

So

26:46

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

if it wasn't approved,

26:48

S… Speaker 3 (MR4)

they wouldn't be able to build it.

26:51

S… Speaker 2 (MR4)

It is not.
