MESSAGE FROM THE MAYOR I am pleased to present the City of Dieppe’s 2020 Annual Report on behalf of City Council. To state the obvious, 2020 was quite an unusual year. The COVID-19 pandemic disrupted our lives, but the municipality was able to adapt and continue to offer essential services while keeping its finances in check. Although our recreation facilities were closed for several weeks, we implemented operational plans that allowed them to reopen so that residents could continue to enjoy them safely. This report contains the year’s highlights and the details of the budget and financial statements. As always, it is a pleasure to serve you. Thank you for placing your trust in us. Happy reading!
Yvon Lapierre Mayor

HIGHLIGHTS CONSTRUCTION OF THE UNIPLEX
SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT
Construction of the UNIplex continued into 2020, and the complex welcomed its first users in November. The UNIplex is a multi-purpose facility that provide services to the entire community and users of all ages.
The City of Dieppe took part in the Climate Change Transition Project to complete the Federation of Canadian Municipalities’ Partners for Climate Protection program. Dieppe is very proud to have been part of this important project. To reduce our greenhouse gas emissions, we continued our financial incentive program for the purchase of residential electric charging stations and installed four stations at the UNIplex in connection with the SAUVéR initiative.
ROAD CONSTRUCTION Nearly $10,000,000 was spent on road work, including repairs to Collège Street, Melanson Road, Arsenault Road and Chartersville Road. Over 60% of that amount, or $5,660,000, was invested in renewing existing infrastructure that was nearing the end of its life. In addition, flashing lights at three crosswalks were replaced with traffic lights, which activate when a pedestrian wants to cross. They are located on Champlain Street (near Mathieu-Martin and Carrefour de l’Acadie schools and at the CCNB entrance) and Amirault Street (at the Louis Street intersection). A new crosswalk with traffic lights was installed on Dieppe Boulevard near Englehart Street.
HEALTH CRISIS MANAGEMENT The Municipal Emergency Management Team (MEMT) was activated on March 7 to coordinate the needs of the various sectors in relation to the COVID-19 pandemic. This included reviewing and updating 10 critical service continuity plans and assessing and approving 75 operational plans for the resumption of operations at our facilities. Fifty more employees completed basic response management training (SCI-100) during the pandemic, bringing the total percentage of municipal employees who have taken the training to 60%.
The municipality also formed a financial partnership with the Federation of Canadian Municipalities to undertake a feasibility study on energy efficiency measures for the Arthur-J.-LeBlanc Centre in Dieppe. The project aims to boost efficiency and reduce greenhouse gas emissions at the centre by more than 30%.
FIRE DEPARTMENT The fire department adopted its 2020-2024 master plan, which will allow it to optimize its activities and set priorities based on the municipality’s needs. The plan emphasizes risk prevention, services to residents, and optimal performance. In 2020, the Fire Department added a 3rd-grade officer (platoon chief), which led to greater management and governance capacity at the senior management level and the creation a working committee tasked with developing a long-term program to reduce the risk of occupational illnesses associated with firefighting.

COUNCIL MEETINGS Regular City Council meetings are public and held on the second and fourth Mondays of every month in the council chambers located at City Hall (333 Acadie Avenue). The meetings are broadcast via the web and on Rogers TV. In July, August and December, meetings are held only on the second Monday of the month. Meetings are held to make decisions on municipal issues through deliberations. The issues are examined, debated and voted on by councillors in attendance. Decisions are made by majority vote. 2020 was an exceptional year due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The municipality was forced to cancel some of the regularly scheduled council meetings and close the meetings to the public. However, as mentioned earlier, the meetings were broadcast via the web and on Rogers TV.
A special meeting is a meeting that must take place before the next regular meeting, i.e., outside the schedule provided for in the procedural bylaw. A total of 18 regular meetings and two special meetings were held in 2020. Details are provided in Appendix 1. Section 68 of the Local Governance Act provides that council meetings may be closed to the public for the duration of the discussion if it is necessary to discuss confidential information that is protected by law. The dates of those meetings and the type of issues discussed are listed in Appendix 2. The minutes of public Council meetings can be viewed at the clerk’s office during City Hall business hours. They are also published on the City’s website.
REMUNERATION OF COUNCIL MEMBERS Section 49 of the Local Governance Act provides that local governments may pay salaries and allowances to mayors and councillors.

SOCIAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL GRANTS One of the objectives of a municipality, as set out in the Local Governance Act, is to promote the economic, social and environmental well-being of its community. Through their efforts, community organizations support the municipality in this mission. Grants of $500 or more are listed in this report in Appendix 3. For more information on these grants, please contact staff at city hall. In 2020, the City of Dieppe provided $2,000 in social grants through Policy A-37, the purpose of which is to sponsor not-for-profit organizations that organize events open to the public. Dieppe also has a policy (L-13) to provide support to accredited community groups for their events in Dieppe, and thereby offer residents a range of recreational, cultural and social activities. A total of $2,500 in social grants was awarded in connection with Policy L-13.

To encourage and support accredited community organizations to offer events in Dieppe, in 2010, City Council adopted a policy regarding grant programs for hosting events (Policy L-16). In 2020, $54,600 was donated by the municipality in exchange for visibility at various events, such as Francofête en Acadie, the Festival international du cinéma francophone en Acadie and the Salon du livre de Dieppe. In 2016, the City of Dieppe adopted a policy (L-20) governing requests for donations to provide financial support to non-profit organizations that contribute to the well-being, advancement, development and quality of life of Dieppe residents. The municipality granted $4,250 in donations in 2020. As for environmental grants, $3,489 was provided to Dieppe residents in 2020 for the purchase of residential charging stations for electric vehicles (Policy Z-3).

The Engineering Department is made up of four engineers, including the manager and five engineering technicians. It is responsible for traffic management, street lighting, designing and executing capital construction projects, the paving preservation program, and quality assurance for new residential and commercial developments.
This category is partly funded by user fees, which generated $935,540 in 2020 (arenas: $578,662; Aquatic and Sports Centre: $294,104; sponsorships: $36,900; activity fees and rental income: $24,874). This amount represents a loss of over $650,000 compared to 2019 due to COVID-19.

Public Works owns 88 pieces of portable equipment (blades, shovels, etc.) and 50 pieces of mobile equipment like snowplows, blowers, trailers and salt trucks. Municipal transit services include public transit and accessible transit. Due to the pandemic, the transit service saw an unprecedented decline in ridership, which also led to a major reduction in service. The addition of a maximum limit on the number of passengers per bus made the system inefficient for many people who needed it. Most customers have been patient and understanding during this difficult time. The bus drivers did their part to try to help customers as best they could by showing exemplary cooperation despite the challenges.

The city’s bus fleet is aging, and the municipality had to withdraw one of its buses from circulation, thus reducing the number from 4 to 3. Dieppe is looking forward to the preparation of a tender document for the purchase of smaller vehicles. The municipality conducted a study to develop a baseline scenario for the future, as well as a plan for transitioning to an electric fleet. Dieppe also purchased 2 solar-powered bus shelters in 2020. The demand for accessible transit service decreased by more than half in 2020.
