later
this
week.
A
The

and
Authority
Under
The

Would
someone

later
this

moved
by
councilor
dominato
seconded
by

Carr,
although
some

Jose,
the
motion
carries
unanimously
minutes
minutes
one
or
from
the
council
meeting
on
June
13
2023.
A
A
Would
he
like
to
move
the
adoption
moved
by
counselor
Joe
seconded
by
Council
Kirby
young,
all
in
favor
opposed
seeing
that
in
opposition
that

unanimously
minutes?
Three
are
from
the
council
meeting
following
the
standing
committee
agenda
on
City,
Finance
and
services,
meeting
of
June
14
2023?
Are
there
any

Meisner

all

and
it's

on
June
15
2023.
A
A
Okay,
so
does
any
member
wish
to
hold
any
of
these
items
for
debate,
questions
to
team
members,
so
I'm
hearing
presentation,
number
one
I'd.
D
Thanks
thanks
terrify
I'd
like
to
pull
item
one
and
then
I
wonder
if
you
could
just
repeat
because
I
think
we
jumped
in
quickly
on
you
what
the
other
consent
items
are.
Please,
sir,
pardon
me,
could
you
just
repeat
what
the
other
consent
items
are.
Please.
A
It's
two
three
four
and
six,
seven,
eight.
A
So
we
are
holding
report
one
so
Council
May
adopt
the
recommendations
for
reports.
Two
three
four
and
six:
seven
eight.
D
Procedure:
first,
if
I
might
okay,
my
understanding
is
that
the
grant
reports
require
eight
counselors
and
do
we
have.
Can
we
just
get
clarification
that
we
don't
have
cancer
classes?
So
we
we.
A
According
to
the
clerk,
that's
enough
I
will
highlight.
D
A
A
A
No,
oh
I
was
supposed
to
ask
if
anybody
wanted
to
declare
conflict
on
the
consent
items
only
I
did
on
that's
already
being
held.
Okay.
A
So
the
following
have
been
approved
on
consent,
the
2023

Services

Outlook,
Colin,
Knight
and
Patrice
Impe
at
the
mic.
F
Thank
you
good
morning,
Council
Patrice
and
B
general
manager
of
finance
risk
Supply,
Chain
management.
We
are
here
to
talk
about
the
budget
Outlook.
This
is
the
city's,
the
the
starting
point
of
the
city's
budget
process.
F
We
take
a
multi-year
view,
looking
ahead
at
what
things
Council
and
and
staff
will
be
considering
over
the
next
few
months
as
we
pull
together,
the
2024
budget
there's
no
decision
at
this
time.
This
is
just
for
information,
but
we
do
well.
We
are
available
here
for
questions.
F
Colin,
Knight
who's,
our
director
of
Citywide
fpna,
we'll
do
a
short
presentation,
highlight
some
of
the
key
items
from
the
report
and
a
progress
rule.
Who
is
our
associate
director
and
fpna
and
Sarah
Kapoor
who's,
our
director
of
business
unit,
fpna
we're
all
here.
If
you
have
questions
so
I'll
pass
it
over
to
Colin.
G
For
thank
you
Patrice,
so
I'm
going
to
walk
through
this
presentation,
which
walks
through
the
some
of
the
key
highlights
of
the
budget
Outlook
as
contained
in
the
report,
and
this
Patricia
noted
this
is
for
the
period
24
to
2028,
taking
that
five-year
view.
So
we
can
look
at
some
of
the
opportunities
challenges
and
risks
that
the
city
faces
in
its
Financial
Outlook.
G
The
presentation
will
be
structured
as
an
overview
of
the
budgeted
Outlook
and
how
it
fits
in
the
budget
process
will
also
be
doing
a
walkthrough
of
the
components
of
the
budget
which
include
the
capital
budget,
the
operating
budget
and
multi-year
financial
plan,
as
well
as
talking
about
the
actions
that
the
city
is
taking
to
address
some
of
The
Five-Year
Plan
Financial
challenges.
Lastly,
I'll
conclude
with
an
update
on
the
public
engagement
approach
for
the
2024
budget.
G
So
in
terms
of
the
the
key
messages
and
the
Outlook
I
think
again
to
emphasize
and
what
Patrice
said
said,
this
is
the
starting
point.
So
this
is
something
we
do
each
year
as
part
of
the
process
to
provide
counsel
with
the
the
financial
landscape
and
what
what
we're
seeing
and
how
City
staff
will
go
about
building
the
budget.
G
What
that
timeline
will
look
like
and
and
some
of
the
the
things
that
the
city
staff
will
work
on
as
we
as
we
build
the
budget
and
come
back
to
council
throughout
that
process,
leading
up
to
final
budget
decisions,
and
so
I
think
one
of
the
key
themes
you'll
see
coming
up
throughout
this
Outlook
is
the
challenge
that
inflation
has
had
on
the
city's
Financial
picture
and
I
think
that's
a
challenge,
that's
consistent
with
what
other
organizations
and
residents
and
businesses
are
experiencing
with
the
current
environment
and
for
the
city
that
does
have
some
significant
impacts
on
on
the
city's
costs,
particularly
in
areas
around
Staffing
costs
and
construction
costs,
and
we're
also
continuing
to
be
impacted
by
that
tight
labor
market
and
supply
chain
challenges.
G
G
What
we
project
is
a
tax
increase
of,
on
average
nine
percent
each
year
for
the
next
five
years
and
I'll
go
into
a
few
some
of
the
factors
that
that
drive
that
and
then
also
the
actions
that
the
city
is
taking,
recognizing
that
that
that's
not
a
sustainable
path
in
terms
of
increases
and
the
challenges
that
place
on
affordability.
So
we
want
to
highlight
the
many
actions
that
are
being
taken
that
will
help
address
that
challenge.
G
We'll
talk
about
capital
and
again,
one
of
the
key
focuses
of
capital
in
the
organization
is
around
delivery
and
delivery
of
projects
and
as
well
on
the
services
side,
efficient
delivery
of
service,
how
to
make
our
services
optimized
and
more
efficient,
better
able
to
serve
our
customers,
and
that
has
a
financial
benefit
as
well.
So
there's
a
lot
that
is
being
done
and
we'll
speak
as
we
go
through
the
coming
presentation
on
that
sustainable
multi-year
financial
planning
framework
that
the
city
is
embarking
on
to
help
address.
Some
of
these
multi-year
cost
pressures.
G
Also
note
as
well
is
that
that
the
mayor's
budget
task
force,
which
is
which
was
created,
is
is
underway,
and
so
in
terms
of
the
design
of
this
year's
process.
We're
factoring
in
that
the
mayor's
budget
task
force
will
have
findings
to
share
in
October
of
this
year.
That
will
inform
this
budget
and
future
budgets,
and
so
we're
anticipating
that
will
be
then
put
into
the
process
as
well.
G
Just
a
reminder
in
terms
of
the
the
city's
planning
framework
just
to
emphasize
that,
as
we
build
the
budget
and
service
plans
for
this
year,
we're
drawing
on
a
number
of
things
that
Council
Direction.
The
council
has
provided
through
vision,
priority
schools,
multi-year
strategies
that
Council
has
and
that
the
current
Council
has
supported
and
prior
councils,
and
so
staff
will
continue
to
take
that
direction
which
Council
has
given
and
use
it
when
building
building
the
budgets,
and
so
we'll
continue
that
approach
this
year.
G
Now,
moving
to
the
walkthrough
of
the
budget,
Outlook
and
I'll
start
with
the
capital
side
of
the
the
budget.
So
again,
a
big
challenge
here
is
around
inflation
and
cost
escalation.
That's
something
clearly
affecting
any
industry
that
is
looking
at
construction
costs
is
seeing
sizable
increases
in
construction,
cost
estimates
and
that's
really
impacted
the
city
and
then,
as
well
as
the
noted
Staffing
and
labor
issues
around
vacancies
and
just
finding
skilled
staff
that
can
occupy
key
positions
that
are
needed
to
deliver
on
capital
projects
remains
a
challenge.
G
The
supply
chain
remains
a
challenge,
and
so
what
the
organization
is
doing
is
really
focusing
on.
How
do
we
deliver
and
that
in
general,
maybe
taking
actions
to
make
sure
that
projects
can
proceed
and
that
will
have
amenities
delivered?
The
citizens
will
be
able
to
see
tangibly
and
so
we're
looking
at
optimizing
our
processes
internally
on
how
things
can
move
more
quickly
through
the
system
to
make
sure
that
that
we're
looking
at
any
factors
that
are
causing
projects
to
be
delayed
and
and
to
make
sure
that
we're
taking
action
to
address
those.
G
This
chart
here
illustrates
what
the
level
of
capital
delivery
that
the
city
needs
to
be
able
to
get
to
in
line
with
the
capital
plan
that
was
approved
in
order
to
meet
critical
renewal
needs
and
also
needs
around
infrastructure,
new
infrastructure
for
a
growing
population
in
our
city,
and
so
these
are
it's
an
imperative
for
us
to
make
sure
that
we
deliver
and
find
ways
to
deliver
at
a
level
that
we
haven't
historically
and
again.
G
We
are
looking
at
again
as
I
noted
looking
at
the
five
years,
an
average
nine
percent
increase
per
year
over
that
five-year
period,
which
you
can
see
how
that
translates
into,
for
example,
116
dollars
for
median
strata
and
increase
each
year
on
on
the
average
tax
bill
and
the
driver
behind
that
again,
the
the
city's
significantly
impacted
by
Collective
agreements.
G
So
as
collective
agreements
are
settled,
that
impacts
the
city
budget
and
as
we've
seen-
and
this
is
a
again
within
not
just
the
city
but
across
other
public
sector
and
and
other
organizations
generally,
is
that
with
the
high
inflation
environment
comes
higher
than
a
typical
salary
increases
through
Collective
Agreement
negotiations,
and
so
the
city's
budget
will
be
impacted
by
that
and
as
well.
Inflation
on
on
other
non-salary
type
items,
including
materials,
and
so
the
approach
that
we've
taken
again
is
that
we
have
a
contingency
in
our
Outlook.
G
That
will
allow
us
to
respond
to
some
of
those
inflationary
pressures
for
many
of
the
city's
Collective
agreements
that
are
not
yet
settled
for
the
2023
to
20
25
period,
and
so
again
that
will
be
something
that,
as
those
agreements
become
settled,
will
impact
the
city's
budget
and
so
we're
taking
an
approach
of
making
sure
that
we've
got
adequate
contingency
for
those
costs.
I'll
notice,
well
that
the
budget
for
2024
will
be
impacted
by
some
of
the
initiatives
that
Council
approved
into
2023.
G
So,
for
example,
the
100
additional
police
officers,
a
portion
of
that
cost
was
built
into
the
2023
budget.
As
those
staff
around
Poppin
come
on
board,
the
full
cost
impact
of
those
those
and
other
initiatives
will
be
part
of
the
the
2024
budget,
and
then
we
continue
to
have
the
additional
one
percent
property
tax
support,
as
well
as
utility
rate
increases,
supporting
infrastructure,
renewal
and,
again,
that's
that's
critical
to
addressing
the
city's
infrastructure
deficits.
G
For
the
Outlook,
we
have
taken
a
conservative
approach
around
Revenue
assumptions,
forecasting
three
to
five
percent
growth,
which
is
more
in
line
with
historical
increases,
but
I'll
note
doesn't
fully
cover
the
cost
increases
and
some
of
those
fee
coverage
services
that,
given
the
inflation
environment,
could
be
higher
than
that.
G
And
so
that's
something
that
we'll
we'll
look
at
and
I'll
speak
in
the
presentation
a
bit
about
some
of
the
work
that
we're
doing
on
revenues,
and
so
as
we
do
work
to
optimize
revenues
and
look
at
opportunities
for
new
revenues
that
will
allow
for
an
increase
in
revenues,
which
will
then
be
one
of
the
things
that
we
can
look
at
at
reducing
the
property
tax
impact.
G
So
the
next
few
slides
just
talking
about
again
what
drives
the
city's
costs
and
what
results
in
an
average
nine
percent
property
tax
increase
estimate.
When
we
look
at
just
maintaining
current
service
levels
and
again,
you
can
see
the
factors
listed
here.
I've
talked
about
a
few
of
them
around
our
inflation
and
cost
increases,
and
the
infrastructure
renewal
on
Capital
I'll
just
also
add
that
there
is
a
portion
of
the
city's
budget
that
relates
to
Regional
utility
charges
for
Metro
Vancouver.
G
So
that
is
something
where
those
are
projected
also
to
increase
at
levels
above
inflation,
and
that
will
impact
the
city's
the
city's
budget.
We're
also
looking
at
Reserve
replenishment,
given
the
significant
drawdowns
of
the
city's
General
Revenue
stabilization
Reserve
that
were
needed
during
covid,
and
we
so
it
will
be
important
to
have
a
multi-year
plan
to
replenish
those
reserves,
and
so
that's
factored
in.
G
The
biggest
driver
of
the
city's
budget.
Operating
budget
is
around
salary
and
benefits
cost
and
again
those
are
largely
driven
by
Collective
Agreement
patterns,
and
so
that
will
be
a
key
input
into
the
budget
process.
We're
also
impacted
by
external
parties,
for
example,
some
like
Ecom
as
an
example
or
other
external
parties,
where
the
city
is
required
to
pay
cost
increases
passed
on
from
those
agencies
and
then
as
well.
G
When
we,
when
we
look
at
the
projection
of
the
the
tax
rates
again,
it
it
rises
for
the
next
few
years,
we
we
do
project
that
it
will
drop
somewhat
as
inflation
moderates
more
towards
27
and
2028,
based
on
current
projections,
but
again
noting
that
some
of
the
inflationary
factors
that
are
currently
impacting
the
city's
budget
are
expected
to
continue
for
a
few
more
years
and
that's
a
key
factor
in
the
property
tax
increases
being
higher
than
than
historically,
they
have
been
what
I
will
say
as
well?
G
Is
that
again,
when
we
look
at
this
picture,
what
this
tells
us
is
that
we
need
to
take
actions
to
do
things
differently
and
look
for
efficiencies
and
how
we
deliver
service,
look
for
new
Revenue
opportunities,
and
we
know
that
there's
a
lot
of
work
that
needs
to
be
done
in
this
area.
G
Looking
again
at
the
2024
budget
and
what's
driving
the
tax
projections
for
next
year
again,
the
largest
area
would
be
around
this
contingency
item
for
inflation
and
Collective
agreements.
And
so
that's
something
that
we'll
as
again
as
this
agreement
settle
we'll
get
information
through
the
budget
on
what
those
amounts
are,
but
we're
taking
estimates
based
on
inflation
forecasts
and
and
what
we've
been
seeing
as
a
city
and
what
other
jurisdictions
have
been
seeing
and
then
so.
That
piece
is
around
six
percent
of
the
increase
and
then
there's
one
percent
for
infrastructure
renewal.
G
One
percent
for
the
annualized
cost
of
councils,
Investments
taken
through
the
2023
budget
that
had
cost
implications
and
the
2024
year
and
then
implications
of
half
a
percent.
Around
Metro,
Vancouver,
Regional
utility
charge
increases
that
are
funded
through
property
tax.
G
And
then,
as
we
know,
that
there's
there's
significant
risks
in
this
forecast
around
what
those
inflationary
pressures
end
up
being
as
well
as
senior
government
policies
and
I'll
speak
to
some
of
the
work
that
we're
doing
around
senior
governments
and
then
unforeseen
events,
extreme
weather,
etc.
Those
would
be
risks
which
we
have
reserves
that
can
manage
to
an
extent
but
those
those
factors
we
are
not
built
into
the
Outlook.
But
we
have
to
look
at
making
sure
that
we've
got
our
Reserve
replenishment
in
place
so
that
we
can
manage
those
events.
G
Make
a
point
as
well
around
within
the
current
budget.
One
of
the
factors
that
contributes
to
the
pressure
on
property
taxes
is
the
significant
portion
of
funding
within
the
city
budget.
That
is
goes
into
service
areas
which
traditionally
have
been
the
responsibility
of
senior
levels
of
government,
and
this
was
outlined
to
Council
in
a
memo
earlier
this
year
around
the
budget
around
the
level
of
estimated
costs
associated
with
some
of
these
services
and
again,
the
significant
portion
of
the
budget
and
a
significant
pressure
on
our
on
our
budget.
G
The
city
is
looking
at
opportunities
to
pursue
senior
Government
funding
and
to
note
as
well
that
there
are
a
number
of
areas
where
senior
governments
have
come,
come
to
the
table
and
brought
forward
funding
which
has
been
helpful
to
the
city's
planning
and
which
is
incorporated
into
our
budgets
for
the
the
coming
year,
and
we
will
continue
to
use
this
funding
to
advance.
I'll.
G
Just
note
that
the
the
funding
where
it
is
largely
one-time,
an
unpredictable
that
that
does
have
present
challenges
and
it
isn't
to
the
level
that
it
fully
manages
the
cost
implications
to
the
city
budget
around
these
service
areas.
And
so
there
is
an
opportunity
for
us
to
continue
to
advocate
for
ongoing
and
predictable
funding
from
senior
level
of
governments
to
help
address
this
challenge.
G
We
also
recognize
that
there
are
significant
actions
that
we,
as
a
city,
can
Undertake,
and
so
the
next
section
of
the
presentation
is
focused
on
describing
some
of
the
many
actions
that
are
in
progress
across
the
city
to
drive
towards
that
increased
efficiency,
better
customer
service
and
identifying
new
Revenue
opportunities
and
advocating
for
senior
Government
funding.
All
these
opportunities
together
as
we
build
the
budget
will,
over
the
coming
years,
help
address
those
that
challenge
around
the
tax
rate
and
look
to
create
Financial
capacity
to
offset
that
pressure.
G
So,
first
on
Revenue
that
we've
throughout
the
city
we've
been
looking
at
existing
and
new
revenue
streams
and
opportunities
to
to
prioritize
ones
that
will
generate
impacts
and
deliver
Revenue
in
the
near
term
and
over
the
coming
years,
and
so
we'll
be
updating
Council
through
the
budget
on
those
actions,
some
of
them
are
listed
here
around
the
types
of
work
that
is
being
undertaken
and
some
of
it
will
be
more
short-term
impacts.
G
Some
of
it
will
be
longer
term
and
with
these
items
as
we
go
through
the
budget,
they
will
come
forward
to
council
and
and
fee
reports
and
so
on
around
getting
direction
from
Council
and
support
to
look
at
options
in
these
areas.
That
could
help
increase
revenues
and
and
reduce
the
impact.
Also
noting
that
there'll
be
discussions
with
Park
Park
Board,
following
up
on
Parks
board's
direction,
to
explore,
think
big
strategy
around
Revenue
generation
options
within
within
parks,
foreign
moving
to
the
the
service
improvement
and
capacity
building
actions.
G
Generally
speaking,
again,
there's
a
number
of
things
that
are
being
undertaken
across
the
city
but
they're,
looking
at
lean
and
continuous
process,
Improvement
looking
at
simplifying
processes
and
making
sure
that
we're
running
things
efficiently
in
the
delivery
of
service
which
will
maximize
value
for
for
taxpayers
and
also
there's
a
key
piece
around
using
technology
to
help
drive
that
efficiency
in
the
organization.
G
So
you
can
see
here
just-
and
this
is
just
a
sampling
of
some
of
the
many
things
that
are
underway
across
the
city.
I'll
highlight
again,
then,
in
the
permitting
area,
significant
number
of
initiatives
around
making
that
process
more
efficient
and
using
technology
which
ultimately
helps
the
financials,
because
when
we
can
get
a
process
that
works
well,
that
serves
the
customer
and
is
efficient,
and
that
translates
into
Financial
efficiency
as
well.
And
that
means
that
there's
more
capacity
to
with
the
resources
that
we
have
to
deliver
better
outcomes.
G
On
senior
Government
funding
and
Partnerships
so
again,
there's
the
municipal
funding
framework
is
is
a
work
that
the
city
has
been
advancing
through
some
of
the
other
Regional
areas
like
ubcm
and
fcm,
where
we
need
to
build
this
appreciation
that
municipalities
need
a
modernized
toolkit
to
support
the
evolving
role
of
local
governments.
G
The
City
offers
in
an
affordable
way
and
yeah
just
to
continue
to
address
critical
infrastructure
and
Community
needs,
recognizing
that
some
of
the
the
critical
infrastructure
needs,
especially
in
the
region,
are
significant,
and
so
that's
an
area
where
government
support
is
crucial
to
to
address
some
of
the
challenges,
and
you
can
see
just
an
example
of
some
of
the
priorities
for
2024
around
senior
government
advocacy.
G
So
the
last
section
I'll
speak
to
is
around
public
engagement.
So,
given
that
we
just
completed
an
extensive
round
of
Engagement
with
the
2023
budget,
that
was
just
passed
at
the
end
of
February
for
the
upcoming
budget
cycle,
we'll
be
looking
at
a
scaled
down
engagement.
But
it
will
include
significant
opportunity
for
the
public
to
participate
in
the
budget
process,
and
so
that
will
be
happening
through
August
and
September
of
2023.
G
And
some
of
the
examples
are
shown
like
through
the
annual
talk
Vancouver
budget
survey,
that
there
will
be
an
opportunity
for
residents
and
businesses
to
provide
input
to
con
to
con,
as
staff
can
consider
as
we're
building
the
budget
and
Council
consider
as
they
deliberate
on
the
budget.
And
so
that
will
be
all
of
that
information,
including
the
information
that
we
gathered
over
the
past
several
months
through
the
2023
budget.
That
will
all
be
used
to
inform
how
we
deliver
our
services
and
how
we
shape
our
budgets
for
the
upcoming
year.
G
So
in
in
summary,
I.
Think.
Given
the
the
significant
challenges
that
the
city
is
facing,
a
multi-year
financial
planning
approach
is
is
important
for
looking
at
how
we
need
to
change
our
service
delivery,
to
adapt
to
the
challenges
we
face,
and
so
we'll
continue
to
update
Council
and
on
the
progress
of
these
actions
and
work
towards
bringing
a
budget
forward
in
the
fall
that
incorporates
some
of
the
the
savings
and
new
revenues
from
these
initiatives.
As
we
continue
to
work
towards
addressing
these
multi-year
Financial
challenges.
G
The
timeline
is
shown
here
and
I'll
just
again
note
that
key
next
steps
will
be
happening
in
that
fall.
September
October
period,
including
the
mayor's
budget
task
force
report
to
be
delivered
to
council
and
then
the
discussions,
engagement
with
Council
and
the
public
leading
up
to
the
December
budget
vote
on
for
the
upcoming
year,
and
so
that
brings
me
to
the
end
of
the
presentation.
A
D
Ready
can
I
move
for
a
second
round
right
off
the
bat
sure.
A
Thing
second
round
seconded
by
Joe,
all
in
favor
saying
unopposed
that
passes:
okay,
councilor.
D
D
Thank
you,
I'm
gonna
fire
through
some
of
these
some
might
be
quicker
and
shorter.
I
notice,
there's
reference
to
new
police
officers,
but
not
to
the
council's
additional
commitment
to
fulfill
the
Dark
Horse
report
and
hiring
of
the
additional
firefighters.
So
can
you
confirm
if
that
fulfillment,
for
the
extra
three
million
dollars
is
in
the
budget
outlook
for
the
additional
22
firefighters.
F
F
Council
made
the
decision
last
year
on
the
police
and
we
funded
a
portion
of
it
in
one
year
and
the
portion
of
it
in
the
following
year.
Council's
decision
on
firefighters
for
2023
was
fully
funded
in
2023,
so
it's
the
second
part
of
the
2023
funding
for
police,
so
Council
would
in
the
2024
budget,
would
add,
follow
the
next
year
of
the
of
the
firefighters
and
assuming
there's
no
additional
police
2024.
D
Budget,
so
maybe
I'm
just
a
bit
confused
I
believe
vfrs
is
as
well
so
I'm
just
looking
for
clarity,
because
is
that
not
also
supposed
to
happen
over
a
couple
of
years
and
multiple
years?
Just
not.
D
I
believe
there's
confusion
and
I'm,
just
looking
to
clarify,
as
and
I
believe,
there's
confusion
with
the
vfrs
as
well.
That
was
also
supposed
to
happen
over
a
couple
of
years,
similar
to
police,
so
I'm
just
wondering
why
we
reference.
F
We
only
funded
part
of
that
in
2023
because
they
could
only
staff
up
so
much,
and
so
this
is
the
the
funding
for
those
100
officers
that
were
approved
then
vfrs
office,
firefighters
that
were
approved
were
fully
funded
in
2023,
so
Council
would
bring
forward
additional
firefighters
in
2024.
If
that's
what
they
chose
to
do,
but
what's
really
the
funding
that
was
split
over.
D
D
H
So,
just
just
with
respect
to
police
police
had
the
approval
to
hire
a
hundred
police
officers.
This
year,
the
partial
your
funding
was
a
reflection
of
the
fact
that
they
didn't
anticipate
actually
being
able
to
have
them
all
hired
this
year,
but
they
have
approval
for
100
officers
fire.
The
funding
for
the
officers
that
were
approved
in
this
year
was
all
in
this
year,
so
there
was
no
carryover
additional
expenses,
so
there
is
no
contemplation
of
any
additional
net
new
positions
next
year.
H
D
Okay,
I'm
still
seeing
confused,
looks
around
the
room,
so
you're
saying
police
were
fully
funded
this
year,
we're
showing
the
incremental
cost
in
2024
of
of
that
hundred.
But
the
firefighters
are
not
I,
I
still
and
I'm
really
trying
to
follow
this
by
still
remain
confused
and
I
see
confused,
looks
around
the
room.
H
Given
approval
to
hire
100
new
positions,
they're
they're
not
going
to
hire,
have
them
all
on
board
on
January
the
1st,
so
what
council
did
was
fund
half
of
the
salary
costs
this
year
the
additional
half
will
be
added
to
the
budget.
Next
year,
buyer
was
given
approval
to
hire
a
camera.
Call
me
too
33
positions.
They
were
funded
for
the
full
year
for
the
33
positions
from
January
1st
this
year.
D
B
D
E
Thanks
I
had
a
number
of
those
same
questions
so
appreciate
counselor,
Kirby
young,
using
her
time
and
happy
to
do
a
third
round.
If,
if
you
need
I
I
know,
a
number
of
us
are
just
trying
to
figure
out
these
numbers,
so
can
I
just
follow
up
on
those
questions
to
confirm
that
the
nine
percent
in
in
this
overview
includes
a
fulfillment
of
that
police
commitment
from
last
year,
but
no
new
police
commitment,
no
new
police
officers,
that's
correct!
Okay!
It's
the.
E
And
and
similarly
includes
no
new
firefighters,
so
if
Council
wanted
to
maintain
its
commitment
to
fulfilling
the
Dark
Horse
report,
we
would
at
some
point
in
when
the
budget
comes
back
to
us,
give
direction
to
staff
to
add
the
funding
for
those
22
firefighters
correct.
Do
we
have
a
dollar
amount
for
that.
E
I'm,
just
taking
through
my
questions
here,
does
the
nine
percent
include
any
any
new
Investments
or
it's
really
a
fulfillment
of
2023
commitments?
And
yes,.
F
So
this
is
sort
of
a
current
state,
steady
state,
so
whatever's
been
approved
and
then
how
it
the
the
cost
structure
is
looking
going
forward,
not
any
new
ones,
and
that
that
Council.
E
Hasn't
already
approved,
okay
yeah
and
the
the
mental
health
investment
that
was
made
last
year.
Do
we
have
any
sense
that
the
province
might
take
that
on
or
are
we
in
our
outlooks,
assuming
that
Council
that
the
city
is
now
indefinitely
paying
those
those
mental
health
costs?
The.
E
Okay,
yeah
I'll,
leave
it
there
for
now.
Actually,
thanks.
I
Yeah
thanks
chair,
I,
think
I
asked
this
question
already,
but
I'm
gonna
ask
this
question
again.
So
you
know
we
know
we
have
seven
percent
internal
inflation
last
year
and
what
we
know
we're
gonna
still
have
a
very
high
inflation
this
year.
So
what
is
our
projection
for
the
inflation.
G
So
in
in
the
Outlook
there's
discussion
of
sort
of
the
the
rate
assumptions
based
on
what
we're
seeing
generally
for
CPI
but
I,
think
the
key
thing
is
the
city's
cost
base
won't
necessarily
track
exactly
CPI.
So
that's
one
factor
that
we
look
at,
but
especially
for
the
next
year,
the
main
drivers
will
be
around
in
estimates
of
inflation
based
on
what
the
city
is
seeing,
and
so
that
could
be
in
Collective
Agreement
areas,
as
I
said.
G
That
would
be
based
on
looking
at
or
the
information
we
have
around
groups
that
have
reached
agreements
within
the
city
as
well
as
what's
happening
regionally
and
then
for
inflation
on
materials,
we'll
be
looking
working
with
their
procurement
group.
Looking
at
what
market
trends,
recent
procurement
Trends
have
been
around
materials
that
we
purchased,
and
so
that
is
built
in
as
I
said
like
in
that
chart,
this
sort
of
explains
the
the
cost
increase.
G
We
were
looking
at
five
to
six
percent
in
terms
of
the
that
property
tax
being
driven
by
inflation
expectations
for
the
year,
but
noting
that
in
some
areas
like
construction,
it
could
be
far
greater
than
that.
That's
an
average
across
looking
at
an
estimate
based
on
the
information
we
know
now:
okay,.
I
G
I
think,
are
you
asking
about
the
conference
board,
like
the
external
agency
forecasts
for
the
Oklahoma.
I
G
So
again,
I
think
I
think
I
could
say
that
we're
looking
at
that
property
tax
impact
in
the
six
percent
range
and
that's
based
on
the
factors
that
I
said
and
and
for
more
details
on
the
factors.
For
example
around
our
assumptions
around
Collective
agreements,
I
think
that
would
be
information
that
we
could
provide
to
council
and
in
camera
at
a
future
time.
I
G
I
That's
fair,
yeah
thanks.
The
other
question
is
I.
Think
some
of
our
license
fees
in
Vancouver
is
significantly
lower
than
other
city.
So
I
think
in
this
report
we're
going
to
project
three
three
percent
to
five
percent
increase
for
the
license
fees.
So
that's
about
1.4
to
1.5
million
dollars.
So
that's,
actually,
you
know
still
very
low.
Compared
to
other
cities,
license
fees,
any
progress
or
not
I
know
stuff
is
working
on
review.
All
the
business
license.
Yeah.
G
Yeah
yeah,
so
I
think
a
couple
comments,
one
that
that
particular
the
three
to
five
percentage
is
just
based
on
the
incremental
assumption
around
Revenue
increase.
G
So
that's
not
a
statement
of
like
the
the
comparison
of
what
that
fee
is
relative
to
others,
but
I
think
that
council
did
provide
direction
as
part
of
the
last
budget
in
February,
for
us
to
look
at
this
cost
recovery
in
our
fee
levels
and
bring
back
options
for
Council,
including
options
around
cost
recovery,
and
so
I
think
you
know
the
licenses
areas,
one
of
the
areas
that
we're
seeing
like
that
we
will
be
looking
at,
and
so
that
can
be
information
that
we
bring
back
to
council.
I
G
F
Just
add
to
that,
the
1.4
to
1.5
is
sort
of
staff's
estimate
of
of
incremental
Revenue
if
Council
approved
license
increases
above
the
three
to
five
just
to
be
clear.
Okay,.
I
F
5
is
built
in
across
all
the
fees,
but
of
course
they
will
come
to
council
and
you'll
have
an
opportunity
to
make
them
higher.
If
you
want,
and
for
this
appendix
it's
just
an
estimate
of
what
that
could
be
yeah.
I
F
That
is
the
program
that
we're
working
on
right
now,
so
staff
who
I
wasn't
comfortable
identifying
a
number,
particularly
for
2024,
but
they
we
will
buy
the
time
we
get
to
the
budget
process.
Yeah
we'll
provide
you
with
some
estimates
there.
Okay.
I
Thanks
my
last
question,
so
I
think
you
mentioned
that
in
the
presentation
already,
but
I
just
want
to
clarify,
so
that
public
is
more
aware
of
that,
so
that
nine
percent,
meaning
everything
status,
call
and
without
new
revenues
without
cost
saving.
Everything
stayed
the
same
and
we
expect
nine
percent
right.
F
I
think
that's
what
was
Colin
was
kind
of
outlining
with
those
three
pieces.
So
this
is
the
starting
point.
If
we
do
nothing,
that's
what
it
would
be
status
quo,
but
we're
obviously
working
on
many
things,
whether
it's
revenue
or
cost
recovery
or
senior
Government
funding,
which
would
all
get
built
into
the
budget
as
we
go
through
the
next
few
months
and
some
of
them
staff
will
build
in
because
it's
improved
assumptions
and
others
Council
will
make
a
decision
on
what
they
want
to
include
and
things
like
fees,
Etc,
Great.
I
J
Chair
my
first
question
actually
produces
for
Colin
Colin.
You
mentioned
in
the
presentation
that
there
are
reserves
to
deal
with
unexpected
significant
climate
events,
but
you
know
what
have
you
done
an
analysis
or
looked
at
the
potential
projection
of
severe
climate
events
and
would
would
it
mean
Us
increasing
the
reserve
in
order
to
deal
with
them?
There's
been
some
pretty
severe
ones
across
Canada
and
British
Columbia
and
the
region
this
year.
G
Yes,
no
and
I
think
there's
definitely
work
being
done
to
look
at
how
we
can
better
sort
of
assess
those
level
of
risks.
G
I
think
the
comment
I
would
make
is
even
just
over
the
past
several
years,
just
based
on
observation
and
we've
been
reporting
back
to
council
the
magnitude
of
kind
of
what
we
call
extreme
weather
type
events
and-
and
it's
been
consistently
for
the
last
couple
of
years
exceeding
like
historical
averages,
and
so
we
do
have
this
a
snow
storm
reserve
and
we
do
have
a
General
Revenue
stabilization
Reserve
that
again
they
can
provide
some
of
that
some
cushion
to
the
city.
G
If
we
experience
those
events
but
I,
think
what
we
observe
is
that
if
it's
consistently
you
know
getting
into
a
large
dollar
range,
then
then
that's
one
where
you
know.
We
need
to
start
thinking
about
making
sure
that
we've
got
more
funding
built
in
for
reserve
for
replenishment
and.
J
Interestingly,
just
before
this
meeting
started,
there
was
a
press
conference
held
on
The
Lawns
of
City
Hall
on
a
climate,
a
new
climate
adaptation
strategy,
federally
and
I.
Note
that
in
your
presentations,
you're
very
consistent
about
saying
we
need
to
increase
our
revenues.
Have
you
had
any
indication
that
the
federal
specifically
the
federal
government,
because
it's
their
strategy,
is
willing
to
put
more
money
on
the
table
for
increasing
the
resilience
and
the
adaptation,
as
well
as
response
to
increasingly
extreme
climate
events?
I
mean
can't?
Are
they
saying
anything
about
it?
F
At
this
point,
we
are
looking
at
multiple
programs
that
the
federal
government
has.
We
don't
have
one
at
this
point
that
we're
aware
of,
but
I
expect
that
that
will
be
an
outcome
of
some
of
these
discussions.
It's
something
that
we
continue
to
flag
I.
J
Think
that's
uitr
that
we
need
to
I
noticed
that
they
did
talk
about
floods,
but
there's
a
lot
more
than
just
floods
that
that
we
have
faced.
As
you
know,
okay,
that's
good!
J
Third
third
question:
you
know
I'm
thinking
more
bigger
picture
here
than
detailed
Zion
items
in
in
the
information
that
you're
presenting
I
am
interested
in
your
analysis
of
what
the
risks
are
if
we
do
not
sufficiently
invest
in
certain
elements
of
our
City's
work,
and
it
brings
to
my
mind
the
fact
that
we
are
paying
now
in
this
Council
for
a
lot
more
and
it's
a
lot
more
stress
on
our
budgets,
because
during
the
time
that
Vision
was
in
power,
they
understand
on
the
upgrades
that
are
needed
for
the
sewer
system.
J
G
Yeah
I
mean
I,
think
we've
highlighted
through
our,
like
our
Capital
plan,
the
importance
of
investing
in
renewal
to
address
the
infrastructure,
deficit
and
I.
Think
that's
where,
and
that
includes
the
example
of
increasing
this
sewer
renewal
rates,
but
there's
other
areas
that
that
includes
and
that's
again
why,
as
part
of
our
Outlook,
we
have
that
one
percent
additional
property
tax
impact
of
providing
renewal
funding.
G
To
address
that
we
know
we
have
significant
aging
infrastructure,
just
based
on
where
Vancouver
is
and
how
old
we
are
as
as
a
city
and
so
and
that
will
that
that
pressure
will
only
increase.
And
so
it's
it's
crucially
important
that
we
make
sure
that
we
invest
in
renewing
assets
before
and
as
they
get
older.
That
can
be
very
costly
to
renew.
So
we
want
to
make
sure
that
we
we
make
progress
on
that
infrastructure
deficit.
J
Apropos
of
that,
one
of
the
things
about
infrastructure
is,
of
course
we
are
a
ocean.
City,
a
seashore
city
and
rising
sea
levels
are
are
right
now
being
recalculated
by
scientists.
The
report
came
out
this
week
that
Arctic
sea
ice-
that's
it
in
the
summer.
It's
we're
not
going
to
see
it
anymore
and
the
rising
impacts
on
time
out
of
time,
I'll
get
back
on
I'll.
Let
you
think
about
that.
But
I'll
get
back
on
to
to
answer
to
the
question
thanks
chair.
J
C
Thanks
stir
fry
thanks
very
much
for
the
presentation,
obviously,
an
alarming
number
from
my
perspective,
gotten
a
lot
of
feedback
already
from
residents
very
concerned.
I
just
want
to
elaborate
a
little
bit
more
and
ask
some
questions
on
the
projections.
C
C
Are
we
projected
like
what
if
we
have
a
recession,
for
example,
inflation
goes
down
to
a
very
low
level.
Are
we
running
different
scenarios
with
the
budget
to
see
what
those
various
outcomes
might
be
over
the
next
four
years.
G
Yeah
so
I
think
we
we
will
be
considering,
like
you
know,
different
scenarios
around
economic
forecasts
and,
as
I
said
like
we
are
projecting
in
those
future
years
like
five
years
ago.
We
are
projecting
that
those
some
of
those
inflationary
pressures
will
moderate
I.
Think
the
the
point,
though,
with
the
city's
cost,
is
again
given
that
a
sizable
amount
will
be
related
to
contracts
that
we
signed
now
or
Collective
agreements
that
we
sign
now
that
will
last
for
several
years.
G
I
think
that
what
that
means
is
that,
even
if
there
is
a
change
in
the
inflation
Outlook,
it
will
take
a
year
or
two
before
that
fully
translates
into
cost
impacts
on
the
city.
Side,
okay,.
C
G
Yeah
we
and
we
do
monitor
that
regularly
and
I
think
that
it
had
bounced
back
significantly,
but
even
still
was
like
right
now.
Our
budget
for
this
year
is
around
it
just
returning
to
2023
or
2019
pre-covered
levels,
so
just
getting
back
to
the
the
pre-covered
levels,
but
not
growing
to
a
level
above
that,
which
is
what
we
would
need
to
keep
those
revenues
to
in
line
with
just
again
the
the
inflation
changes
over
that
time
period.
G
I
think
just
to
note
that
there
there
are
some
factors
around
like
the
locations
of
where
you
know
that
have
been
challenged
in
terms
of
Revenue
changes
and
I.
Think
the
the
downtown
area
and
the
shift
in
work
patterns
has
been
a
factor
that
seems
to
be
persisting
Beyond,
just
like
a
simple
bounce
back
scenario,
and
so
that
is
impact
test.
So
it's
it's
a
risk
to
monitor,
but
we
are
also
acknowledging
that
there's
work
to
be
done
around
looking
at
opportunities
on
parking
Revenue.
G
So
there
are
opportunities
and
that
work
will
inform
the
budgeted
discussions.
Okay,
okay,
good.
C
To
know,
and
and
the
rec
fees
as
well
I
understand
that
that's
down
as
well
is
that
correct
in
2023
so
far.
G
Yes,
that
was
something
as
well
we're
monitoring,
as
the
the
rec
fees
haven't
fully
got
back
to
the
level
of
pre-covered,
although
they're
getting
closer
I
think
you
know,
we
again
we're
budgeting
for
them
to
be
in
that
sort
of
90
to
100
range
of
the
pre-covered
level,
but
recognizing
costs
have
increased
significantly
over
that
time
period.
Okay,.
C
The
other
question
was
around
the
task
force
recommendations
coming
in
December,
but
then
the
budget
vote
potentially
in
December
and
that
to
me
just
seems
like
a
really
quick
time
to
Pivot.
Let's
say:
there's,
you
know
some
great
recommendations
from
the
budget
task
force,
but
we're
being
expected
to
you
know:
I,
guess
on
your
end,
redo
the
budget
and
and
and
pass
it
this
at
a
workable
timeline.
G
G
Yeah
so
I
think
we'll
have
to
assess
like
what
sort
of
the
what
the
recommendations
are
from
the
Task,
Force
and
and
then
I
think
you
know
our
approach
would
be.
Is
that
wherever
they're
one
there
are
ones
that
can
be
quickly
implemented
that
we
would?
G
And
then
you
know,
perhaps
if
there's
some
that
are,
that
are
more
of
a
multi-year
implementation,
that
we
would
structure
and
to
align
to
what
the
task
force
is
recommending,
and
so
that
would
be
the
approach
that
we
would
take
and
again
emphasizing
that,
like
with
the
you
know,
our
our
budget
policy
has
been
around,
with
the
exception
of
the
election
election
year
like
last
year,
to
make
sure
that
we
are
aiming
for
the
December
approval,
because
that
is
what
enables
the
city
to
deliver
and
proceed
with.
F
Maybe
just
a
question:
we
are
expecting
the
budget
task
force
information
in
October,
okay
right
absolutely,
we
do
have
that
month
and
we
do
have
a
couple:
an
extra
date
for
Council
as
a
backup
date,
so
I
think
we're
planning
to
bring
it
to
count
Council
first
end
of
November.
If
we
needed
to
delay
that
we
could
we've
got
an
extra
date
in
there.
So
hopefully
we
can
there's
enough
time
there
to
make
some
of
those
adjustments.
C
K
Thanks
chair
I,
just
wanted
to
Circle
back,
hopefully,
I'll
be
quick
here,
Circle
back
to
the
cost
of
Public
Safety,
and
you
know,
there's
no
doubt
policing
is
expensive
and
we're
reminded
of
that
pretty
regularly,
but
Vancouver
is
also
a
core
City.
And
while
we
have
a
population
of
about
700
000,
the
VPD
police,
a
population
about
twice
that
as
a
result
of
being
a
core
City,
so
I'll
use
protests
that
happen
in
the
city.
For,
as
an
example,
I
think.
K
The
VPD
here
are
there's
something
like
well
over
400
protests
in
in
the
city
of
Vancouver
last
year.
Most
of
these
have
nothing
to
do
with
the
city
of
Vancouver,
but
the
residents
and
businesses
are
on
the
hook
for
the
costs.
K
So
my
question
is
what
conversations
in
the
presentation
you
talked
about
conversations
with
other
levels
of
government.
So
my
question
is
what
conversations
have
been
happening
with
both
the
province
and
the
federal
government
to
assist
with
policing
costs,
especially
costs
related
to
policing
issues
that
are
specifically
connected
to
the
provincial
and
federal
government
responsibilities.
F
We
have
highlighted
over
the
years
the
impact
of
this
city
being
a
Regional
Center
in
a
metropolitan
area,
which
is
a
little
bit
different
from
say,
Toronto
or
Winnipeg
or
Calgary,
that
are
larger
municipalities
at
this
point
in
time,
I
don't
think
we
have
a
particular
advocacy
that
we're
doing,
but
that
has
been
highlighted
several
times
over
the
years
and,
as
you
know,
you
know
with
all
the
extra
activities
in
the
events
and
things
we
don't
get
really
any
of
the
of
the
benefit
from
an
economic
point
of
view
at
us
at
the
city.
F
It's
really
the
city
at
large.
Another
thing
just
to
point
out,
though,
is
we:
do
have
a
larger
percentage
of
our
property
tax
revenue
coming
from
commercial
than
other
cities
May.
So
we
have
a
large
commercial
tax
base
which
does
benefit
from
the
some
of
the
activities,
but
things
like
protests
are
a
different
one
and
that
one
we
have
not
specifically
requested
that
and
I'm
not
sure
if
BPD
has,
but
I
can
check
on
that.
Okay.
K
You
know
the
the
problems
that
were
that
occurred
at
the
peony
last
year,
the
Stanley
Cup
riots,
the
vast
majority
of
people
that
were
arrested
and
charged
in
those
incidents
were
not
from
the
city
of
Vancouver
but
surrounding
municipalities.
So
conversations
about
the
sharing
of
policing
costs
would
be
I
think
you
know
very
important,
but
that's
all
the
questions
I
have
thanks
and.
A
Thank
you
thanks
Patrice
and
thanks
counselor
Montague
next
on
the
cue
councilor
dominetto.
L
Thank
you
chair
and
thanks
to
the
team
for
the
update,
yeah
I
have
a
couple
of
questions.
One
of
us
Circle
back
to
the
historical
slide,
I
think
it
was
slide
15
that
you
had
around
property
tax
rates
over
time
and
I'm
just
curious
if
you
could
expand
a
little
bit
on
the
historical
property
taxes
going
back,
you
know
to
2016.
L
L
G
Bringing
the
slide
up
so
we
can
see
it
there.
We
go
so
I
think
that
the
just
to
highlight
a
few
factors,
and
so
one
is
again
just
the
inflation
environment,
as
I
said
so,
going
back
to
some
of
the
the
left-hand
side
of
the
chart,
the
sort
of
2016-17-18
period.
That
would
be
a
period
of
time
where
our
Collective
agreements
would
be
in
the
two
percent
range
and
so
again
on
the
collective
agreements
that
we
have
signed.
G
We're
seeing
you
know
like
something
double
that
range
and
then
that's
consistent
with
other
the
other
areas
in
the
region
and
so
there's
a
significant
increase
there.
Another
key
factor
is:
is
that
that
one
percent
additional
property
tax
for
infrastructure?
So
that
was
something
that
was
put
in
place
starting
around
that
2019
period
and
that
again
is
carried
through
each
year,
and
so
that's
a
factor
that
increases
and
100.
F
Maybe
a
couple
of
other
things,
I
can
add.
We
did
have
the
Vancouver
Services
review
through
that
period,
leading
up
to
2016
I,
think
it
was
from
2010
to
2016.,
and
so
that
was
kind
of
a
modernization.
We
looked
at
all
of
our
cost
structures.
Etc
organizations
held
vacancies,
including
the
police
at
that
time,
and
then
the
other
piece
is.
F
We
looked
at
our
cost
structure
in
many
ways
and
we
reviewed
a
lot
of
our
fees
and
we
did
make
a
significant
change
to
work
towards
cost
recovery
for
our
fees
during
that
period,
so
that
put
some
relief
on
the
on
the
property
tax
as
well.
So
it
was
a
combination
of
many
things
and
again,
I
think
the
cost
recovery
piece
is
something
we'll
look
at
for
our
fees
over
this
next
few
months
and
bring
that
to
council
also
for
for
their
review.
L
Okay,
thanks:
that's
actually
a
great
segue
I'll
have
to
come
on
for
other
questions,
but
I
wanted
to
actually
drill
down
into
the
revenue
generation.
So
counselor
Joe
asked
about
fees,
but
in
there
you've
identified
naming
rights,
sponsorship
donations
in
terms
of
what
that
might
look
like
it
takes
time
for
those
things
to
be
put
in
place.
So
what
is
the
time
frame
to
see
potentially
new
revenue
from
sponsorship
or
naming
rights?
No,
maybe.
F
It
can
just
highlight
on
appendix
C
of
the
report
those
Revenue
generating
opportunities.
Those
are
ones
that
we've
looked
at
sort
of
in
the
short
term,
the
numbers
they
were
really.
What
are
the
opportunities
that
we
could
be
looking
at
for
2024,
so
from
15
to
23
million,
that's
sort
of
one
and
a
half
to
two
percent,
to
the
extent
that
it's
a
property
tax
and
we'll
come
back
to
you
with
more
details.
F
So
there
is,
you
know
things
that
are
that
staff
believe
can
be
implemented
within
you
know
the
short
term,
but
certainly
sponsorships,
is
something
that
I
think
we
can
make
some
progress
on
as
well
and
definitely
deliver
some
of
that
for
2023,
but
the
naming
rights
and
some
of
those
others
I
think
they
take
time
to
work
through
both
policies,
but
also
engage.
F
You
know
the
the
public
in
in
that
exercise,
so
we
may
not
see
those
until
later
years,
so
we
just
aren't
far
enough
along
in
the
project,
to
be
able
to
nail
a
number
for
or
an
estimate
for
2024,
but
that
will
definitely
be
part
of
the
budget
process.
Okay,.
L
L
F
Would
say
most
cities
are
following
a
similar
Trend
that
we
are
following,
and
you
know
after
the
financial
crisis
in
2009,
most
cities
were
very
focused
on
on
their
costs
and
then
again
through
the
pandemic,
and
different
cities
impacted
differently
through
the
pandemic,
so
I
think
they
are
seeing
sort
of
the
similar
and,
of
course,
inflation,
impacts.
Everything
and
all
municipalities
have
the
same
Collective
marketing
processes
as
well.
So
we're
not
we're
not
alone
yeah.
L
Okay,
thanks
for
that,
I'll
I'll
come
back
on
for
questions
after
thanks
great.
A
Thanks
councilor
Dominator
I've
added
myself
to
the
queue
with
a
couple
of
questions,
just
first
off
the
50
to
75
million
dollars
for
contingencies.
That's
generally
just
for
Collective
agreements
is,
what's
the
what's
the
percentage.
G
So
that
is,
it
looks
at
inflationary
pressures
which
could
include
Collective
agreements
but
also
like
non-salary,
related
and
inflationary
items,
and
so
again,
that's
based
on
the
the
estimates
that
we
have
around
what
we
expect
those
Collective
agreements
to
settle
out,
as
well
as
what
we're
seeing
on
some
of
those
material
cost
increases
and
and
so
that,
at
a
high
level,
we
outline
but
I,
think
we
could
provide
more
detail
again.
Some
of
that
would
be
provided
to
counseling
in
camera,
update,
given
sensitivities
around
Collective
agreements
and.
G
Like,
like
I,
think
for
the
for
the
projections
on
the
expense
side
again,
that
is
primarily
take
into
account
those
known
cost
increases.
We
have
the
item
from
2025
on
at
half
a
percent
for
reserve
for
punishment,
and
so
that
Reserve
replenishment
item
would
support
rebuilding
our
reserves
for
that
type
of
situation.
Okay,.
A
I'd
like
to
look
over
some
of
the
appendix
C
items
and
you'll-
forgive
the
pun.
I
want
to
get
a
little
bit
more
granular
on
the
sand
project.
A
So
that's
that's
the
sponsorship,
advertising
naming
rights
and
donations,
leading
that
and
what
does
that
look
like.
G
I
mean
I
think
that,
like
generally,
we
can
provide
counsel,
it's
probably
more
suitable-
to
provide
a
more
thorough
update
and
have
some
of
the
staff
involved.
Providing
an
update
on
that
I
don't
know
Patrice
did
you
want
to
add.
F
It
is
it's
led
by
our
business
planning
and
a
project
support
bpps
group.
It
is
city-wide,
it
includes.
You
know,
engineering
Parks,
you
know
across
the
city,
so
we're
really
looking
at
all
those
opportunities.
It
is
an
area
where
there
are
existing
policies,
and
so
it's
partly
determining
how
those
could
change
what
new
policies
we
need,
but
also
really
looking
at
the
different
opportunities.
So
it
will
take
a
little
bit
of
time
to
get
through
that,
but
we
do
expect
to
have
that
for
this
budget
process
we
are
leveraging
work.
F
That
was
done
a
number
of
years
ago.
So
we
do
have
some
some
good
baselines
to
work
with.
A
E
F
I'm
not
sure
if
we
have
at
this
point
but
I
assume
that
will
be
part
of
the
of
the
process
going
forward.
Okay,.
A
And
I
will
check
yeah.
Okay,
thank
you.
The
ride
hail
Revenue,
that's
articulated
here
at
5.9
million
dollars.
That's
for
curbside
management.
That's
not
insignificant.
Can
you
add
a
little
color
to
what
that
looks
like.
F
We
might
have
to
get
back
to
you
with
some
specifics.
You
could
probably
have
an
engineering
send
a
memo
to
Council
on
what
they're
thinking
yeah
on
all
of
these
as
Colin
says.
There's,
you
know
a
lot,
maybe
more
to
talk
about
with
Council
on
each
of
those,
but
it
was
just
a
give
an
indication,
but
as
far
as
the
policy
pieces,
we
can
give
you
more
information
and.
A
F
Yeah
I
think
this
would
be
just
using
sort
of
our
current
process,
but
just
maybe
incrementing,
rather
than
the
tradition
built
into
the
into
the
current
Revenue
assumptions,
is
that
three
to
five
percent.
So
this
is
just
ramping
that
up
by
a
few
percent,
something
more
major
would
happen
in
the
out
years.
In
the
later
years,
yeah.
F
H
A
Assumed
here
appreciate
that
clarification,
that's
it
for
me
back
on
round
two
with
Council
Kirby
Young.
D
Thanks,
chair
I
have
a
few
questions
and
maybe
a
couple
of
examples
to
sort
of
make
this
real
about
some
of
the
potential
changes
or
opportunities,
for
example,
with
the
park
board,
the
last
part
board
had
imposed
a
moratorium
on
private
events
in
parks,
and
we
heard
a
story
yesterday.
I've
heard
it
many
times
before,
but
all
of
council
met
with
destination
Vancouver
and
heard
a
story
about
from
the
head
of
a
destination
management
company
who
had
a
group
in
town
a
meeting
conference.
D
They
wanted
to
hold
an
event
sort
of
dinner
picnic
in
a
park
and
they
weren't
able
to,
and
they
literally
were
driving
tens
of
thousands
of
dollars
in
permit
fees
suspending
the
local
economy
over
the
bridge
to
the
North
Shore,
where
they
held
their
event
at
the
shipyards.
They
weren't
able
to
do
that
now.
The
new
part
board
Has
Lifted
that
moratorium
so
have
we
recast
some
of
the
revenue
around
things
like
permit
fees
and
expected
events
coming
back
in
Parks
as
part
of
the
Outlook.
At
this
point,.
F
So
maybe
just
to
highlight
in
the
bottom
of
the
appendix
C
is
the
park
board
does
have
the
think
big
strategy
and
that
is
very
focused
on
revenue
and
enabling
more
of
those
those
items
we
haven't
built
in
a
lot
of
that
here,
because
they're
still
working
on
it.
I.
D
B
D
Or
not
at
this
point,
yeah,
okay,
moving
on
the
other
thing
is
with
respects
to
the
infrastructure
deficit,
because
we've
had
past
councils
that
have
woefully
under
invested
because
we
picked
up
the
slack
on
senior
government
investment.
As
you
noted
and
I
know,
we
started
getting
quantification
on
that
in
response
to
emotion,
I
brought
forward,
there's
a
quarter
of
a
billion
dollars
conservatively
in
there
and
other
items.
D
How
significant
is
it
that
we
are
able
to
pull
back
now
on
things
like
the
province
investing
in
child
care
so
that
we're
not
doing
things
like
operating
grants
or
we
can
just
be
enabling
housing
through
faster,
better
permitting
or
provision
of
land
or
locations
for
child
care,
but
we're
not
having
to
pick
up
on
the
child
care
and
the
other
piece?
D
Because
I
guess
my
two-point
question
is:
we've
got
a
one
percent
infrastructure
renewal
deficit
which
is
not
going
to
guess
where
we
need
to
go
because
we
have
a
half
billion
dollars
and
a
deficit
every
year
and
the
last
Council
also
chose
to
deplete
the
reserves
quite
consistently.
So
how
much?
How
much
of
Australian
is
that,
and
also
adding
back
Reserves
as
well
as
dealing
with
aging
infrastructure,
because
we
didn't.
D
Yeah
I'm,
looking
for
sort
of
how
significant
the
opportunity
to
pull
back
and
have
the
province
pick
up
what
they
need
to
and
versus
us
being
able
to
actually
deliver
the
services
that
we
need
to.
So.
F
I
think
there
was
a
slide
in
the
presentation,
but
I'll
just
highlight.
We
have
been
advocating
to
senior
government
for
a
different
model
for
municipal
funding,
so
instead
of
the
city
using
our
you
know
in
the
municipal
toolkit,
invest
Advocate
and
regulate
instead
of
using
our
funds
for
Child,
Care
and
housing
that
we
regulate
through
what
council
has
been
doing
to
to
build
more
affordable
housing
and
Rental
housing?
F
D
You
municipality
so
I'm,
just
gonna.
Try
to
keep
these
answers
tight
for
sure,
so
we're
in
a
pretty
big
hole
is
what
I'm
hearing
there
was
a
philosophy
last
term
from
Council
to
keep
digging
into
the
reserves
and
kind
of
go
into
the
well
and
just
want
to
hear
clearly
and
quickly
from
staff
that
we
advocating
that
we
not
do
that
moving
forward,
because
we
actually
need
to
build
up
that
Reserve
fund
and
we
need
the
resiliency.
That's.
F
D
Great
the
other
question
I
had
is
that
the
auditor
general
recently
and
I
wonder
if
this
is
an
example
of
where
we
could
see
an
impact
in
terms
of
right
sizing,
the
fees
in
the
2024
budget,
because
the
recent
audit
General
found
that
we
left
12.6
million
dollars
on
the
table.
That,
by
my
count,
is
about
1.5
percent
rounding
off
in
property
tax
alone
that
we
had
to
take
from
reserves,
because
we
were
under
charging
for
cost
recovery
on
issuing
permits
for
housing.
D
F
Yes,
that
will
be
council's
decision.
In
the
past
two
years.
We've
brought
forward
a
report
that
highlighted
the
the
deficit
and,
and
the
decision
was
to
maintain
fees
at
a
at
a
lower
level
than
cost
recovery,
with
the
intent
that
all
the
work
that's
happening
around
the
permitting
process
would
you
know,
enable
us
to
go
to
to
get
Revenue
through
at
a
lower
cost
so
that
we
would
bring
that
Gap
together
over
time?
F
It's
always
been
cost
recovery
is
for
permits
and
we
did
I
think
a
number
of
years
ago.
We
did
a
full
review
to
make
sure
that
we
were
doing
full
cost
recovery.
So
we've
been
updating
that
over
the
last
several
years
and
just
in
the
last
two
years
that
the
council
decided
to
not
increase
the
fees
to
fully
Rec
cost
fully
recover
the
costs.
J
Yeah
thanks
so
much
well,
it
looks
like
councilor
Kirby
young
not
only
took
the
question
right
off
the
bat
around
the
fire
service,
but
also
I
was
going
to
ask
about
cost
recovery
of
fees.
So
thank
you,
councilor
Kirby
young
I'm,
going
to
ask
to
have
a
continued
answer
to
the
question.
J
I
left
with
you,
which
was
in
seeing
that
if
we,
if
we
I,
guess
the
risks,
if
we
don't
invest
in
sufficiently
in
things
that
could
have
mounted
mounting
costs
in
the
future
and
what
assessments
are
we
doing
around
where
the
biggest
risks
are?
And
you
mentioned
one?
But
you
know
I'm
thinking,
climate
wasn't
one
you
mentioned
and
I'm
we
just
had
an
announcement.
So
what?
Where
is?
Where
is
staff
at
in
terms
of
assessing
I?
J
F
That's
a
very
good
question.
Also
so
I
would
say
we
have
done
more
work
around
the
climate
emergency
action
plan,
which
is
mitigation
and,
as
you
know,
we've
brought
you've
been
able
to
kind
of
tie
Financial
strategy
to
the
to
the
climate
strategy
and
and
quantify
those
risks
on
the
adaptation
side.
We've
not
Quantified
those
risks
as
much,
and
we
are
working
on
that
as
part
of
the
the
climate
adaptation
strategy
to
start
to
to
put
those
financial
numbers
to
it
and
a
financial
strategy
which
would
need
to
include
senior
Government
funding.
F
Just
add
we
are
making
those
we're
not
waiting
for
it
to
stop
report.
People
are
making
those
decisions
all
the
time
and
incorporating
it
into
their
Capital
plans
like
the
green
gray
infrastructure
work.
That
engineering
is
doing
so
that's
very
much
driven
by
changing
climate
and
understanding,
of
course,
how
to
respond
to
that
changing
climate
and
do
it
in
a
more
cost
effective
way
than
just
sewer
separation,
but
actually
focusing
on
on
capturing.
J
Okay,
I
look
forward
to
report
backs
on
them.
On
that
parking
revenues,
we've
always
been
looking
at
sort
of
historic
parking
revenues
and
wanting
to
get
back
to
Historic
levels.
Are
we
at
all,
considering
that
we
may
never
be
returning
to
Historic
levels
if
we
actually
achieve
other
City
objectives
like
complete
neighborhoods
like
switching
and
increasing
people's
habits
to
more,
you
know,
walking
cycling
Transit
use,
rather
than
than.
F
Car
use,
yeah,
I,
think
lawn
LeClaire
would
be
the
best
one
to
answer
that,
but
you're
correct
I,
think
in
in
some
areas
where
we're
giving
a
parking
space
to
to
have
more
investment
in
public
realm
and
and
public
spaces,
then
obviously
that
Revenue
comes
down
I.
F
Think,
though,
as
the
city
grows,
opportunities
for
more
parking
paid
parking
across
the
city
also
grows
so
I
think
there's
still
that
opportunity
to
to
balance
that,
and
they
continue
to
look
at
that
as
you
know,
and
make
sure
that
they're
putting
in
paid
parking
where
it
makes
sense
Etc.
So
he
could
probably
let
you
know
you
know
so
how
that
balance
Works
a
little
bit
better
than
I
could
but
I
think
at
this
point,
there's
still
opportunities
as
the
city
grows,
to
increase
parking.
Just
maybe
not.
J
F
J
Yeah,
that's
it
for
my
questions.
Thank
you
very
much
and
for
the
the
reporting
that
you
do
to
us,
I
think
it's
really
fabulous
that
we
get
this
information
well
in
advance
of
the
budget
and
have
time
to
contemplate
the
various
choices
that
we're
going
to
have
to
make.
Thank
you.
Okay,
thanks
chair.
I
F
Account
Council
policy
and
is
cost
recovery.
That's
we
have
been
working
towards
in
the
last
two
years.
We
made
a
number
of
investments
in
Staffing
and
technology
in
order
to
improve
the
turnaround
times
for
permits,
and
so
those
costs
had
incremental
costs
which
we
didn't
increase.
F
So
Council
chose
not
to
increase
the
fees
fully
to
cover
those
costs,
because
those
Investments
should
over
time
improve
the
productivity
of
the
permitting
process
right
so
that
so
the
fees
will
you
know
the
cost
will
come
down
and
then
the
fees
don't
have
to
go
up
as
much.
So
that
was
the
decision
to
make
that
short-term
investment
again
we'll
come
back
this
year
and
say
how
well
is
that
balance
now?
Is
it
closer
than
the
you
know?
L
L
There's
been
discussions
both
at
ubcm
and
fcm,
about
the
inadequacy
of
the
property
tax
system
for
the
current
21st
Century
City,
and
the
pressures
that
we're
experiencing,
whether
it
be
related
to
climate,
Community,
safety,
health
issues
and
also
historic
downloading
is
so
early.
We
passed
around
advocating
around
Child
Care
a
better
Child
Care
supports
in
terms
of
operating
dollars,
but
we're
also
looking
at
a
UCM
resolution
tomorrow,
around
A
Renewed
fiscal
framework
for
municipal
governments.
L
Could
you
comment
on
what
discussions
you're
having
at
this
time
with
Municipal
officials,
both
provincially
and
federally,
around
a
different
framework
for
municipal
governments?
Just
given
those
you
know,
increasing
pressures
and
the
fact
that
the
property
tax
system
isn't
sufficient
to
meet
those
needs.
F
I
can
comment
that
at
the
Metro
Vancouver
table
both
on
the
rfac,
which
is
the
financial,
the
CFO
group
and
then
at
Rock,
which
is
the
caos.
We
have
put
together
a
number
of
recommendations
on
Municipal,
Finance
reform
and
and
are
working
through
it
through
Metro
Vancouver
and
as
our
community
of
municipalities.
F
We
have
also
at
the
provincial
budget.
F
We
took
that
opportunity
as
a
city
to
provide
our
feedback
and
also
highlighted
that,
as
as
a
need
to
change
that
structure
around
how
municipalities
are
funded
and
support
the
growth
of
Housing
and
then
certainly
in
the
interactions,
there's
regular
interactions.
You
know
with
the
different
Ministries
like
housing,
Etc
that
we
we
are
also
as
where
Vancouver
is
involved.
We're
highlighting
that
as
well.
F
You
don't
have
a
formal,
you
know
as
a
ubcm
motion
other
than
the
the
resilience
one
that
exists
and
I
know
that
The,
Province
and
counselors
are
looking
to
try
and
advance
that.
But
at
this
point
we
haven't
made
any
progress
really
towards
those
big
changes
through
that
motion
in.
L
Terms
of
some
of
those
systemic
changes,
I
was
just
curious
if,
based
on
the
discussions
you're
having
with
other
municipalities,
is
what
are
some
tangible
examples
of
like
the
recommendations
you
reference
that
are
being
considered
to
the
you
know
the
provincial
government.
What
does
that
look
like
what
are
some
of
the
things
that.
F
F
As
they
said,
probably
the
main
one
is
is
to
if
cities
provide
more
affordable
housing
and
Rental
housing,
and
then
we
don't
get
the
funding
through
cac's
and
dcl's
to
provide
infrastructure
to
support
that
that
the
province
could
Fund
in
that
way,
fund
more
of
the
interest
of
the
infrastructure
and
and
cities
regulate.
F
The
housing
is
probably
the
biggest
piece,
because
the
city
of
Vancouver
has
led
that
we
know
that
we've
increased
a
lot
of
rental,
affordable
housing
and
we
don't
generate
the
revenue
from
therefore
to
cover
amenities
like
Parks
Etc.
So
we
have
already.
F
We
are
already
in
that
situation
and
so
looking
for
the
province
to
to
come
to
the
table
and
and
help
with
that.
L
Right
and
then
as
as
was
noted
in
the
resolution
earlier,
is
that
while
we
partner
to
enable
Child
Care
within
the
city
we're
advocating
to
the
province
through
UBC
on
this
term,
for
funding
specifically
to
support
ongoing
operating
maintenance,
because
that
isn't
coming
with
current
dollars.
Well,
there's
the
ten
dollars
a
day
initiative
underway
there
isn't
that
additional
funding
to
deal
with
the
ongoing
maintenance
and.
A
Okay,
so
with
no
further
and
thank
you
staff
for
answering
All
Those
Questions,
we
have
a
motion
on
the
floor
from
councilor
Kirby
Young
seconded
by
counselor
Carr,
to
receive
this
report
for
information
all
in
favor
opposed,
seeing
none
that
unanimously.
Thank
you
staff
for
attending
today.
Okay.
A
Now,
our
next
item
report
number
five
authorization
to
negotiate
a
development
agreement
and
ground
lease
with
Fraser
Academy
Association
at
2294
West,
10th
Avenue.
It
has
been
held
to
hear
from
registered
speakers
before
we
get
there,
though
I'm
gonna
have
to
declare
a
personal
conflict
of
interest,
as
my
wife
works
for
the
firm
that
is
doing
the
development
planning
for
this
project,
I'm
going
to
ask
councilor
class
and
Deputy
Mayor
to
take
the
chair,
you
want
to
do
it
from
here.
Mike
or
I
got
the
script
right
here.
B
M
All
right,
so
we
are
now
looking
at
report:
five,
the
authorization
and
negotiate
development
agreement
and
ground
lace
with
Fraser
Academy
Association
at
2294
West,
10th
Avenue.
It
has
been
held
to
hear
from
registered
speakers.
So,
first
of
all,
does
any
member
of
council
wish
to
declare
conflict
of
interest
on
this
item,
seeing
none?
M
We
have
staff
from
Real,
Estate,
environment
and
Facilities
Management
here
to
answer
any
questions.
Council
might
have
Council.
You
have
up
to
five
minutes
to
ask
questions
for
staff.
Are
there
any
questions,
see
counselor
Boyle?
M
Okay,
it
will
advance
you
counselor.
Are
you
yes,.
E
Thanks
I,
don't
know
if
this
is
the
time,
but
we
no
longer
can
ask
questions
of
of
speakers.
So
I
just
was
wondering
what
the
conversation
has
looked
like
around
access
and
affordability,
given
a
pretty
significant
City
Grant
in
the
form
of
Elise.
E
N
Accs
is
the
department
that's
going
to
be
leading
those
discussions,
but
there
is
going
to
be
some
Earth's
talks
that
are
ongoing
right
now,
with
how
access
can
be
expanded
as
best
as
possible,
keeping
in
mind
that
this
is
a
not-for-profit
and
it
still
needs
to
be
economically
viable
to
make
this
work.
But
absolutely
those
are
our
talks
that
are
going
on
I'm,
not
privy
to
those
in
my
capacity,
but
that
will
be
a
requirement
that
is
the
satisfaction
of
the
GM
of
accs
and
real
estate,
environmental
Facilities,
Management,
okay,.
M
You're
the
queue,
then
all
right
so
now
we
are
seeing
no
other
questions
from
Council
we're
going
to
move
to
here
from
members
of
the
public
before
I
begin
I'd
like
to
remind
council
members
of
of
the
public
that
and
the
members
of
the
public
that,
in
accordance
with
updates
of
the
procedure
bylaw,
we
that
were
enacted
on
May
10th
council
meeting
public
speakers
may
only
speak
up
to
three
minutes
and
Council
may
not
ask
any
questions
as
speakers
public
speakers
would
should
State
whether
they
are
in
support
of
the
opposition
of
the
recommendations
and
may
only
speak
once
I'll
ask
speakers
if
they
are
residents
of
the
city
of
Vancouver.
M
If
it
is
not
noted
on
the
speakers
list,
let's
see
where
this
beers
list
is
lots
of
career
very
good.
Thank
you
clerk
all
right.
So
our
first
speaker
is
Neil.
Johnson
welcome,
Neil.
O
Good
morning
Council,
thank
you
so
much
for
the
opportunity
to
speak
today.
My
name
is
Neil
Johnston
I'm,
the
CEO
of
Fraser
Academy
I'm,
here
with
David
Sachs,
a
board
member
of
Fraser
Academy
as
well,
and
volunteer
we're
delighted
to
live
in
a
city.
That's
committed
to
diversity,
inclusion
and
Equity
people
living
with
dyslexia
are
an
important
part
of
that
conversation.
O
O
When
people
with
dyslexia
are
supported,
they
can
Thrive
and
contribute
to
Vancouver
when
people
are
left
unsupported,
they
are
more
vulnerable
and
at
risk
to
homelessness
addiction
and
mental
health
challenges.
So
Falls
squarely
in
line
with
the
city
council's
commitments
to
the
health
and
well-being
of
citizens
in
Vancouver
and
helping
them
to
contribute
to
Vancouver
life.
O
I
know
you
can't
answer
any
ask
me
any
questions
today,
but
I
appreciate
councilor
Boyle's
question
earlier
regarding
our
school
program,
we're
looking
to
put
in
place
a
new
accessibility
fund,
so
augment
that
accessibility
that
we
all
know
is
so
key
to
help
families
access
our
programming,
we're
working
with
accs
to
very
much
focus
on
public
benefits
and
our
other
services
within
the
center
for
dyslexia
are
offered
a
much
lower
cost
or
donor
funded.
So
we
hope
those
to
be
free.
M
Thank
you
very
much,
Neil
all
right,
so
our
next
speaker
is
David
Sachs
David.
P
Good
morning
Council,
thank
you
for
allowing
me
to
be
here.
My
name
is
David.
Sacks
I
was
born
in
Vancouver
and
I
currently
reside
in
Vancouver,
actually
in
the
same
neighborhood
close
to
or
the
center
of
Dyslexia,
hopefully
will
be,
and
my
family
was
impacted
very
positively.
Both
of
my
biological
children
went
to
Fraser
Academy
and
one
of
my
step-daughters
went
there
as
well
and
I've
stayed
involved.
I've
stayed
committed
and
I
currently
consistently
believe
in
the
mission
and
I
Echo.
P
What
Neil
said
about
what
might
have
been
the
challenges
and
outcomes
for
my
children,
my
Offspring,
if
they
hadn't
had
the
opportunity
to
be
supported
in
their
learning
challenges
and
I
just
want
to
add
one
thing:
the
councilor
Boyles
point
the
the
need
to
make
this
accessible
exists.
Now
it
has
for
some
time.
P
I
can
tell
you
having
paid
two
tuitions
at
a
time.
It
wasn't
easy,
but
we
made
the
sacrifices
we
need
to
make
and
that
accessibility
fund
is
something
they're
already
working
on
and
I
expect
will
be
coming
forward
regardless
and
soon
so,
by
the
way,
just
to
be
clear,
I
understood
or
thought
that
there
would
be
questions
so
I
made
myself
available,
but
I
don't
want
to
take
too
much
of
your
time.
I
just
want
to
thank
you
for,
hopefully
supporting
us
in
our
vision
of
helping
this
particular
segment
of
the
Vancouver
community.
B
M
Very
much
David
okay,
so
this
is
the
end
of
our
speakers
list
for
this
item.
For
me,
yep
councilor,
Kirby
young,
moved
second
by
councilor
dominato.
So
any
discussion,
any
questions
or
comments.
J
Right,
thank
you.
You
know
I,
don't
know!
This
is
a
a
great
report
and
I
think
it's
incredibly
important.
I
just
wanted
you
to
chair
to
reiterate
that
council's
not
asking
questions,
because
that
is
part
of
the
new
rules.
I
know
you
did
to
begin
with,
but
I
think
one
of
the
speakers
didn't
apprec
appreciate
that
we
now
cannot
cannot
ask
questions
according
to
our
new
procedural
rules,
so
I
I
just
wanted
that
on
the
record
and
just
to
to
thank
Steph
for
working
with
with
the
Academy
I.
J
Think
that
and
I
very
much
appreciate
the
attention
being
paid
to
increased
access
for
people,
families
that
that
might
not
have
the
wherewithal
to
pay
the
fees
and
the
great
so
I
think
that
is
a
fantastic
move
and
I
think
the
the
Outreach
into
the
school
communities
and
the
teachers
as
well
to
really
increasing
the
breadth
of
information,
knowledge
and
support
I,
both
in
identifying
children
who
might
be
in
need
and
and
directing
them
around
opportunities
to
address
those
needs.
J
It's
it's
excellent
work.
It's
a
real
work
around
Equity
within
our
city
and
so
just
want
to
thank
Academy
very
much.
L
This
has
been
a
long
time
coming
in
terms
of
this
lease
Holden
I
I,
just
I
want
to
reflect
how
important
the
work
of
Fraser
Academy
is
to
the
city
of
Vancouver,
not
just
the
city
of
Vancouver
and
residents
here
and
families,
but
to
families
across
Metro
Vancouver
when
kids
struggle
with
dyslexia
or
learning
disabilities.
There
are
significant
implications.
If
it's
not
dealt
with
in
terms
of
the
long
term,
it
can
play
a
critical
role
in
terms
of
quality
of
life.
L
It
can
contribute
to
Poverty
to
health
issues,
to
mental
health,
substance,
use
issues
and
I
I.
Think
what
we
need
to
recognize
is
how
important
the
range
and
spectrum
of
educational
institutions
are
to
our
city
and
that
Fraser
Academy
plays
a
key
role
in
prevention
and
early
intervention
for
young
people
and
and
as
you
spoke
about
your
personal
experience
and
lived
experience
of
being
a
parent-
and
we
know
that
and
so
I'm
really
excited
about
the
opportunity
for
a
center
for
dyslexia.
L
I
am
thrilled
about
the
fact
that
Fraser
Academy
is
continuing
to
work
with
the
vsb
as
well
in
other
schools
to
support
and
expand
teacher
training
in
this
space.
Because,
again
we
know
that's
an
area
that
needs
attention
and
a
child
is
a
child.
L
Is
a
child,
no
matter
what
school
they
go
to
in
the
city,
but
Fraser
Academy
is
contributing
to
our
educational
system
through
and
and
so
I
just
want
to
acknowledge
that
and
say
thank
you
and
appreciate
the
attention
Neil,
you
referenced
the
the
focus
on
a
new
accessibility
fund
and
making
the
programs
at
Fraser,
Academy,
more
accessible,
I
think
that's
incredibly
important
in
terms
of
equity
and
also
that
you're
going
to
be
doing
more
Outreach
with
Public
Schools,
as
well
as
the
public
sector,
so
suffice
to
say,
I'm
supportive
of
the
report.
D
Yeah
thanks
chair,
it
really
is
a
moment
and
I
do
want
to
acknowledge
that,
because
it
has
been
incredible
amount
of
work
and
it's
been
a
passion
project
and
it
still
is
for
all
the
the
Fraser
Academy
and
the
entire
community
of
parents,
kids
in
the
broader,
the
broader
community
at
whole.
D
Behind
it,
we've
had
the
opportunities
counselors
over
the
past
term
to
visit
and
when
you
get
to
see
the
kind
of
the
low
ratio
of
teachers
to
kids
and
the
kids
that
are
blossoming,
that
basically
this
makes
their
futures
and
if
they
don't
have
that
as
councilor
dominata
mentioned,
kids
fall
through
the
cracks,
but
what
this
does
is
unlock
their
potential.
It's
really
to
me.
This
is
a
great
use
of
city-owned
land
to
enable
this
type
of
facility
in
the
city
run
by
a
non-profit.
D
It's
growing
this
project
to
expand
the
number
of
kids
who
need
it
and
the
families
who
need
the
support
and-
and
that
can
be
served
so
I,
think
the
the
important
thing
I
think
really
to
note
here
is
that
this
will
be
it's
my
understanding,
the
only
facility
of
its
kind
in
the
city
of
Vancouver.
D
So
if
we
did
not
have
this
imagine
where
all
those
families
and
kids
they
would
either
not
have
the
option
to
have
these
Services
provided
or
they
will
be
traveling
to
different
cities
literally
and
I,
think
that
the
vision
here
is
to
grow
and
build
on
what
has
been
a
very
successful
operating
at
a
very
tight
quarters
right
now
in
a
smaller
building
and
having
this
lease.
It's
actually
generational,
because
we're
talking
about
enabling
this
anomalies
for
up
to
100
years
as
a
century.
So
you
think
of
that
in
terms
of
generations.
D
That's
four
generations,
on
average
of
kids
and
families
who
are
going
to
go
through
this
facility
and
their
lives
are
going
to
be
changed
because
of
that
and
I
can't
think
of
a
better
use
for
city
land
and
I'm.
Incredibly,
grateful
to
The
Passion
of
the
Fraser
Academy
team
and
I'm
looking
forward
to
seeing
what
they
do
here
and
I
hope
that
having
the
certainty
behind
this
lease
is
puts
the
win
beneath
your
sales
in
terms
of
the
fundraising
efforts.
So
thank
you.

thanks,
bylaw
14
is
from
the
public
hearing
of
June
15
2023
counselors,
Bly,
Boyle
and
mayor
Sim
were
absent
for
this
item
at
public
hearing
councilor
Boyle
have
you
reviewed
the
proceedings
and
will
you
be
voting
on
The
enactment,
I.
A
You
councilman
mayor
Cimarron
Loa,
someone
like
to
to
the
motion
to
adopt
bylaws
one
three
and
five
to
fourteen
moved
by
councilor
dominata
was
seconded
by
sorry
counselor
Carr,
one
three
and
five
to
fourteen.
A
Counselor
is
there
no,
so,
yes
and
all
in
favor
opposed
seeing
none
that
carries
unanimously.
Would
someone
like
to
move
the
motion
to
adopt
bylaw
number
two.
A
I'm
sorry
bylaw
number
two
is
sorry:
were
you
moving
that
counselor
Boyle
by
Boyle
seconded
okay,
so
they're
moved
by
Domino
and
seconded
by
Eisner
great
council?
Is
there
any
discussion,
none
all
in
favor,
say
yay
opposed
to
say,
nay,
which
encourages
unanimously
with
respect
to
bylaw
four
staffer
requesting
Council
to
refer
this
bylaw
to
the
council
meeting
following
standing
committee
tomorrow
to
allow
further
revisions
to
the
bylaw
city
manager?
Would
you
be
able
to
comment
on
that
at
all.
H
Thank
you
chair.
So,
yes
Council,
we
are
making.
This
recommendation
refer
this
particular
bylaw
to
tomorrow.
We
have
been
advised
of
a
question
today
regarding
section
seven
of
the
bylaw
that
deals
with
the
vacant
new
inventory
and
in
review
of
the
language
that
we
have
drafted.
That
does
appear
that
it
can
be
interpreted
in
a
way
that
we
don't
believe,
is
the
intent,
and
this
is
specifically
around
new
units
that
are
constructed
and
become
vacant
in
in
future
years.
H
Right
now,
the
way
it's
worded
it
could
be
construed
as
as
precluding
the
application
of
the
exemption
to
those
new
units
into
the
future,
and
we
don't
believe,
that's
the
intent.
It
was
inadvertent
in
the
drafting,
so
we
would
anticipate
bringing
forward
a
slight
revision
to
the
bylaw
tomorrow
just
to
clarify
that
piece.
So
this
is
nothing
to
do
with
retroactivity.
This
is
about
how
the
bylaw
that
exemption
would
apply,
go
forward
and
I.
Think
with
that,
we
believe
the
Biola
would
reflect
council's
intent,
better
reflect
council's
intent
with
respect
exemption.
A
Thanks
city
manager,
can
somebody
move
a
motion
to
refer
by
law
number
four
to
the
council
meetings
by
a
counselor
Carr?
This
will
be
to
the
council
meeting
following
standing
committee
on
June
28th
seconded
by
councilor
Boyle
council.
Is
there
any
discussion
seeing
none
all
those
in
favor,
say
yay
opposed,
say,
nay,
seeing
none
motion
carries
unanimously.
The
list
of
approved
bylaws
can
be
found
on
the
city's
website.
A
Moving
on
now
to
administrative
motions,
there
are
two
administrative
motions
on
the
agenda
today.
Number
one
is
approval
of
form
of
development
at
8433,
Ash,
Street,
formerly
622,
to
688
Southwest
Marine
Drive.
Does
any
member
wish
to
declare
a
conflict
of
interest
on
this
motion?
A
B
A
Seeing
none.
Would
somebody
like
to
move
the
motion
move
by
counselor
class
and
seconded
by
counselor
Joe
Council
any
discussion?
None
all
those
in
favor,
say
yay
Jose
none
motion
carries
unanimously.
Number
two:
is
the
zoning
and
development
bylaw
amendments
to
facilitate
Broadway
plan
implementation?
A
Does
any
member
wish
to
declare
a
conflict
of
interest
on
this
motion?
Seeing
none,
sorry,
counselor
Carr
moved
by
councilor,
Carr
seconder
second
by
counselor
Joe,
with
any
questions
to
staff.
A
E
Just
thinks
I
have
a
member
motion
for
Wednesday
July
12th
entitled
I
think
this
is
my
longest
title
ever
sorry
about
that:
ensuring
a
net
increase
in
dignified
Supportive,
Housing
units
by
renewing
leases
or
finding
new
sites
for
temporary
modular
housing,
while
new
Supportive
Housing
is
built.
E
A
Thank
you,
counselor
Boyle,
seeing
nobody
else
on
the
Queue
we
can
move
on
to
new
business.
We
have
two
items
of
new
business
on
the
agenda
today.
Number
one
is
requests
for
leave
of
absence
as
follows:
councilor
Bly
for
civic
business,
on
September
12th
to
14th
2023
and
mayor
SIM,
for
personal
reasons
on
July
4th
2023
from
3
P.M
onward.
A
It's
really
willing
to
move
that
moved
by
councilor
Boyle
second,
by
councilor
Classen,
all
in
favor
opposed
seeing
none
that
passage
unanimously.
Number
two
is
the
ubcm
Hydro
cost
motion.
We
have
a
resolution
from
counselor
Carr
to
be
submitted
to
ubcm's
June
30th
deadline.
Also
Carr.
Would
you
like
to
introduce
the
motion.
J
He
did
circulate
to
all
of
you
this
motion
yesterday
and
and
has
discussed
it
with
staff.
The
motion
is
is
to
actually
provide
for
Equitable
BC
Hydro
pricing
for
Middle
missing
a
missing
middle
housing,
which
I
think
is
of
interest
to
all
of
us.
The
they
have
come
up.
Bc
Hydro
has
come
up
with
a
set
of
policy
recommendations
under
something
called
the
distribution,
energy
policy
and
option.
J
Three
of
that
is
to
provide
a
more
equitable
distribution
of
costs
to
the
missing
middle
housing
developments,
and
he
noted
in
the
the
warehouses
is
that
currently,
it
could
cost
anywhere
from
75
000
to
100
000
for
a
pad
mounted
Transformer
to
enable
missing
middle
housing
to
be
developed
on
a
lot.
J
But-
and
that's
you
know
that's,
but
the
cost
can
vary
and
what
this
particular
option
three
of
BC
Hydro
does
is
to
more,
as
is
to
equitably,
look
at
the
cost
of
increasing
or
adding
new
connections
to
hydro
or
upgrading
connections
as
in
with
Renovations,
so
that
there
would
be
a
modest
per
unit
or
per
dwelling
unit
charge.
A
Great
thanks,
councilor
Carr
would
somebody
like
the
second
Emotion
seconded
by
councilor
Boyle
council?
Is
there
any
discussion?
M
A
question
through
you
to
to
the
Mover
the
I
I
understand
that
when
you
start
increasing
the
number
of
units
on
a
single
lot,
that
you
are
in
impacted
by
Hydro
cost.
So
can
you
just
perhaps
just
unpack
a
little
bit
about
how
this
would
help
to
address
how
this
this
motion
would
help
to
address
some
of
those
those
extra
costs
associated
with
the
hydro
connections.
J
The
Hydra
connections
right
now,
if
you
are
doing
an
upgrade
or
developing
more
units
on
a
lot
May
according
to
VC
Hydro,
require
you
to
put
in
a
whole
new
Transformer
I,
don't
know
if
any
of
you
have
had
conversations
with
people
who
are
doing
this,
but
sometimes
it's
they're
requiring
a
Transformer
upgrade.
A
new
poll
that
would
service
a
whole
block
and
I
have
certainly
talked
to
people
that
have
actually
it's
stopped
them
from
doing
upgrades.
J
That
would
be
energy
upgrades
in
specific
because
of
those
increased
costs,
so
instead,
Hydro
would
develop
through
its
option.
Three:
a
pricing
system
that
looks
at
sort
of
overall
upgrades,
anticipating
that
there
will
be
upgrades
over
time,
both
with
new
developments
and
missing
middle
housing
and
eventually
with
upgrades
in
terms
of
Renovations.
J
So
this
is,
as
I
say,
a
way
to
enable
certain
projects
now
to
proceed
without
bearing
undue
costs
now,
as
opposed
to
later
on
somebody
who
does
it
gets
it
for
very
cheap,
because
somebody
else
has
done
the
work
before
them
or
paid
the
price
before
them.
So
it
is
an
equity
situation.
Okay,.
M
Thanks
very
much,
and
just
again
through
you
chair,
the
the
I
think
some
of
the
work
on
on
this
particular
issue
is
being
dealt
with
by
the
city,
but
this
is
a
ubcm
motion,
so
we're
talking
about
trying
to
take
a
more
of
a
provincial
lens
on
this
right.
Correct,
okay,
good
thanks
very
much.
A
L
All
right,
thank
you,
chair.
It's
a
point
of
information
for
you,
chair
to
the
Mover
of
the
motion,
is
just
to
clarify
that
the
motion
is
supporting.
L
Apparently,
there's
three
options
being
considered,
and
this
one
supports
option
three.
Is
that
correct?
That
is
correct
and
the
BC
Hydro
is
currently
proposing
A
variation
of
option?
Three.
Is
it
in
support
of
that?
Yes,.
L
Okay,
just
because
I
noted
that
they
have
a
slight
variation
on
that,
but
I
just
wanted
to
be
clear
that
on
that
point,
okay,
thank
you.
A
Great
thanks,
counselor
dominado,
okay,
so
all
those
in
favor
say,
hey
imposed.
Seeing
none
motion
carries
unanimously
Council.
Are
there
any
other
items
of
new
business.
A
Nobody
on
the
queue
we
can
move
on
to
inquiries
and
other
matters,
counselor
Council.
Are
there
any
inquiries
or
other
matters?
Councilor
Boyle.
E
Thanks
I
just
first
wanted
to
say
a
big
congratulations
to
to
everyone
who's
graduating
around
this
week.
I
think
we
have
some
family
members
of
of
our
own
team
here
graduating
and
it's
been
a
total
joy
to
see.
Grad
photos
shared
all
across
social
media
over
the
last
week.
E
So
a
big
congratulations
to
2023
graduates
and
and
then
also
wanted
to
ask
inquiry
to
the
city
manager
which
I
I
don't
expect
to
have
now
but
happy
to
hear
back
on
an
update
on
the
work
that
the
city
is
doing
around
Legacy
businesses
and
cultural
food
assets
and
when
Council
can
expect
to
hear
back
on
that
work.
A
Great
Council
Caribbean.
D
Yeah
thanks
I
have
one
question:
three:
if
I
could
to
the
city
manager
and
it's
about
I'm,
still
hearing
conversation,
chatter
and
looking
for
some
clarity
on
this
situation
of
the
Chinatown
plaza,
where
some
folks
are
advising
that
the
city
on
Chinatown
Plaza.
The
number
of
seniors
are
doing
Tai
Chi
early
in
the
morning,
but
were
as
a
security
to
ask
them
to
leave
more
escorted
out
and
VPD
was
called
and
I
wonder
if
we
can
get
some
perspective
on
that
situation.
H
Yes,
certainly
counselor
I
can
convey
my
understanding
of
that.
The
the
use
of
the
plaza
by
that
group
has
been
under
discussion
with
Euro
the
society
for
some
time.
A
number
of
weeks
I
believe
there
had
been
previous
conversations
with
them
around
the
use
of
that
space
and
I
believe
it
had.
They
had
been,
they
had
used
it
previously
and
but
it
had
been
asked
not
to
until
such
time
as
there
could
be
some
agreement
on
how
it
would
be
used,
there's
questions
of
liability
and
so
on.
H
They
were
present.
On
that
day,
the
staff
at
the
Chinatown
Plaza
I
believe
it
was
actually
easy.
Park
staff
requested
that
they
leave.
There
was,
unfortunately,
some
controversy
with
the
staff
who
are
organizing
the
session
and
they
were
reluctant
to
depart.
There
were
actually
multiple
calls
to
the
VPD.
One
was
a
tenant
because
the
the
activity
was
interrupting
access
to
their
business
and
then
the
other
was
one
of
the
staff
members
involved.
H
Just
given
the
level
of
I
think
contention
with
one
of
the
the
staff
members,
so
I
I
understand
that
the
VPP
did
attend
and
discuss
the
matter
in
kind
of
a
low-key
way.
Obviously
not
how
I
think
anybody
would
prefer
that
this
matter
be
dealt
with.
I
think
you
know
we
have
some
concerns
that
the
use
of
the
space
needs
to
be
managed
properly,
and
it
was
something
that
we
committed
to
do.
But
unfortunately
the
group
came
back
without
those
arrangements
in
place.
H
So
it's
still
under
discussion
and
happy
to
update
Council
kind
of
when
we
land
that.
But
that's
my
understanding
of
what
transpired
there.
Okay.
D
So,
just
thank
you.
That's
really
helpful
and
just
back
to
follow
up
to
that
just
back
through
you
chair,
so
we
are
open
to
providing
that
opportunity.
We're
just
working
through
details
is
what
I'm
hearing
yes,
yeah.
Okay!
Thank
you.
H
A
I
Thanks
chair,
so
I
also
want
to
mention
that
I
think
I
think
everyone
is
aware
of
that
on
the
Chinese
Canadian
Museum
will
be
open
this
weekend.
It
is
the
first
Chinese
Canadian
Museum
in
Canada
I
think
in
North
America
as
well.
So
you
know
you
know.
We
all
know.
Chinese
Canadian
made
a
huge
contribution
to
our
city
to
our
country
overall,
so
I
really
encourage
you
participate
in
the
opening
ceremony
and
perhaps
visit
visit.
I
The
the
the
museum
after
it
opens
and
also
this
year
is
the
100
years
anniversary
of
the
Chinese
Exclusion
Act,
the
this
in
fresh
assessment,
so
I
think
it's
a
a
very
iconic
his
you
know
the
milestones
in
the
in
the
in
in
history
of
of
Canada.
So
we
start.
You
know,
I,
really
encourage
you
to
visit
Chinese
Canadian
Museum.
Thank
you.

We
acknowledge
that
this
is
the
almost
one
year
anniversary
since
August
in
Beltrane
was
hidden
killed
at
the
intersection
of
Hornby
in
a
marked
bicycle
crosswalk,
and
certainly
this
Council
have
put
forward
a
motion
in
the
last
term
to
explore
truck
guards
physical
guards
on
trucks,
I'm
wondering
if
there's
any
further
information,
that
from
our
side
on
the
safety
issues
around
that
particular
intersection
and
what
might
come
out
of
this
tragedy.
H
Thanks
counselor
sorry
you're
you're,
asking
specifically
about
that.
The
design
of
that
intersection
and
just
a
question
in
perspective.
H
Yeah
thanks
I'm
happy
to
follow
up
with
engineering
and
follow
up
with
you
on
that
great
I
appreciate
that.
A
And
on
a
on
a
I
suppose
a
happier
note
I,
we
will
be
celebrating
the
156th
anniversary
of
Canada,
this
July
1st
and
just
want
to
make
a
mention,
as
we
won't
be,
having
a
council
meeting
between
now
and
Canada.
Today,

the
Queue
