I

like
to
note
the
city

Vancouver's,
long-standing
commitment
to

A
A
I
also

to
recognize
the
immense
contributions
of
the
city

who
work
hard
every
day
to
help
make
our
city
an
incredible
place
to
live,
work
and
play
in
case
of
an
emergency.
If
we
need
to
evacuate
the
building,
I
would
like
to
direct
your

doors
and
to

Vancouver,
if
it's

please
let
me
know
so
Council.
As
I
mentioned
finished.
Hearing
from
speakers
on
item
two
Broadway
active
Transportation
Lanes.
Next
steps
last
night,
would
someone
like
to
move
a
motion?
A
A
D
We
heard
from
many
very
articulate
speakers
yesterday
and
a
whole
range
of
experiences
from
small
business
owners,
families,
health
professionals,
academics,
seniors,
cycling,
Advocates,
we've
heard
from
from
scooter
and
micro
Mobility
folks
to
what
is
really
clear
is
that
building
safe,
active
Transportation
Lanes
improves
road
safety
for
everyone,
and
we
heard
very
clearly
that
it
increases
active
Transportation
use,
especially
for
families
for
seniors
and
for
women
I'm.
D
In
the
conversation
around
the
Broadway
plan,
walkability
was
a
big
priority
and
having
safe,
active
Transportation
infrastructure
improves
walkability
too,
because
it
keeps
micro,
mobility
and
bicycles
off
of
the
sidewalks
and
in
a
protected
space,
keeps
them
out
of
car
lanes
and
and
makes
the
Drive
less
stressful
for
vehicles
to
we're
already
seeing
increased
scooter,
e-bike
and
micro
Mobility
use
among
residents
as
well
as
couriers
and
delivery
workers
and
other
people
who
work
in
the
area.
D
So
adding
this
infrastructure
also
keeps
workers
safe
the
time
to
do
this
is
now
not
a
few
years
from
now,
when
we've
rebuilt
the
station
blocks,
not
after
we've
added
street
parking
back
in
not
after
more
collisions
and
definitely
not
20
years
down
the
road,
we
can
and
should
keep
finding
patio
and
public
space.
D
Utilizing
setbacks
along
Broadway
and
more
I
was
actually
particularly
intrigued
to
hear
that
the
Vancouver
Public
space
Network,
who
whose
existence
is
about
advocating
for
public
gathering
space,
wrote
in
support
of
active
Transportation
lanes,
because
they
too
see
the
benefit
in
terms
of
Safe
Gathering
spaces
for
people.
I.
D
Think
it's
worth
mentioning
that
cities
all
over
the
world
are
making
much
more
bold
changes
than
even
this
to
prioritize
active
transportation
and,
as
a
result,
are
seeing
very
clearly
what
we
heard
from
Dr
Melissa
Lam
yesterday
that
if
you
build
it,
they
will
ride
safe,
active
transportation
on
Broadway
could
happen
within
our
term
and
I
feel
really
strongly
that
if
we
don't
build
it
now,
we
will
regret
it.
D
It's
a
major
question
of
the
type
of
city
that
we
want
to
create
and
a
test
of
the
vision
and
Leadership
of
this
Council
I'm,
going
to
pause
for
there
there
for
now.
Okay,.
E
Yes,
I'm
going
to
speak
in
support
of
of
the
alternative
recommendation
B,
which
has
been
moved
and
I.
You
know
we'll
just
want
to
first
start
by
saying
that
I
was
so
impressed
by
the
speakers
and
they
were
very
inspiring.
So
thank
thank
you
to
all
the
speakers
who
did
come
out.
E
Obviously
they
they
gave
us
I
think
the
real
reasons
why
we
should
be
supporting
recommendation
B.
Everything
from
this
is
about.
You
know,
climate
action,
it's
about
healthy
City,
it's
good
for
business.
E
We
need
a
complete
Street,
a
safe
Street,
a
triple
A
active
Transportation.
If
we
build
it,
people
will
come,
there
will
be.
There
will
be
more
people.
E
The
Dale
bracewell
said
it's
so
important
to
do
this
now,
I'll
come
back
to
that
healthier,
more
women,
children,
families
that
you
know
that
that
will
use
it
because
they
need
the
safety
of
a
Triple
A
on
all
ages,
all
abilities
bike
route.
We
heard
a
lot
about
how
the
current
Alternatives
that
are
there,
whether
they're,
7th,
8th,
Avenue
or
10th
Avenue,
are
not
doing
the
job
they
need
to
to
bring
people
to
them.
E
There's
a
lot
of
issues
around
say:
if
you
love
The,
you
know
how
many
vertical
meters,
climbed
by
one
by
one
of
the
speakers,
by
going
up
and
down
between
Broadway
and
and
and
10th
Avenue
of
that
and
ends
at
when
people
travel
on
those
routes,
they
don't
stop
and
shop
and
eat
on
Broadway
and
that's
what
part
of
a
complete
street
is
getting
people
there
that
are
going
to
use
the
source
and
the
and
the
business
businesses
so
back
to
why
it's
important
to
do
this
now.
E
Why
is
a
not
the
answer,
but
B
is
I
really
really
believe
what
Dale
bracewell
said,
which
is
pulling
this
doing.
It
now
pulls
people
into
the
future.
It
gets
them
active
actively
using
the
non-vee
non-car
active
Transportation
modes.
E
It's
a
pragmatic
reason.
The
street
is
torn
up
now
and
to
think
about
waiting,
and
we
don't
know
how
long
that
waiting
is
but
waiting
to
then
tear
it
up
again.
I
have
to
believe
that
that's
going
to
cost
more
money
plus
the
delay
gives
uncertainty.
I
was
at
an
event
this
week
and
they
were
people
were
talking
about
this.
This
project
and
and
said
to
me,
if
you're
a
business,
you
don't
want
uncertainty.
E
You
don't
want
to
know
that
sometime
in
the
next
period
of
time,
this
street
is
going
to
get
torn
up
again
to
replace
whatever.
Is
there
and
then
do
the
bike
lanes,
and
not
only
will
it
cost
more
money,
it
will
absolutely
be
detrimental
to
businesses
and
that
security
of
knowing
their
street
gets
done
done
finished
and
they
can
invest
and
and
profit
from
that
in
that
investment.
E
So
I
I
I
really
think
that
that
that
is
probably
one
of
the
most
important
reasons
for
us
to
proceed
with
b
I've
also,
never
seen
a
letter
from
a
BC
cabinet
minister
saying
please
do
this
now,
not
only
that
this
is
George
Heyman,
not
only
that
here's
how
you
can
apply
for
grant
money
from
the
province
to
help
you
in
this
endeavor.
E
So
for
all
those
reasons,
as
I
say,
I
think
this
is
absolutely
a.
We
need
to
move
on
this
now
it
we
know
we
need
to
head
into
this
future.
We
have
to
not
just
shift
cars
from
being
gas
guzzlers
to
Electric
more
cars
on
the
road
is
not
the
future
that
we
want.
It
is
a
future
where
we
are
you
where
people
are
living
in
compact.
E
Neighborhoods
on
in
complete
neighborhoods
can
walk
cycle
roll
to
where
they
need
to
meet
their
me
their
needs
and
that
our
streets
and
I
must
say
I
just
got
so
inspired
by
this
when
I
was
recently
in
Copenhagen
to
see
just
the
majority
of
people
using
active
transportation
in
every
aspect
of
their
daily
lives.
So
those
are
my
reasons
and
I
really
hope
that
we
that
we
move
forward
with
this
now.
F
Yeah,
thank
you
sure,
I'm.
Actually,
just
we
can
put
me
down
the
list.
I'm
just
preparing
an
amendment
here.
It's
going
to
take
me
just
a
couple
of
seconds
sure
yeah
we
can.
A
Go
to
the
next
speaker,
counselor
Joe.
C
Okay,
so
you
know
first
I'd
like
to
appreciate
the
staffs
for
putting
this
report
together.
I
know
this
is
only
15
pages,
but
there
are
a
countless
of
months
of
the
time,
effort,
knowledge,
data,
modeling,
evaluation
and
back
and
forth
so
really
appreciate
your
contribution.
So
to
me,
I
think,
to
make
this
decision.
Walkability
is
the
most
important
factor.
I
would
like
to
consider
so
because
of
the
scheduling
and
the
rapid
transit.
C
So
that
leaves
my
decision
with
only
option
one
or
option
three
I,
really
trust
the
professional
evaluation
and
the
knowledge
from
the
city
staff,
as
summarized
in
the
table
one
here.
So
from
this
qualitative
evaluation
option,
one
two
items
will
be
significantly
better
with
no
other
item
getting
worse
but
option.
Three
seven
items
will
be
significantly
worse
and
it
costs
20
million
dollars,
more
plus
15
reduction
in
vehicle
volume,
but
almost
70
percent
reduction
in
capacity,
because
you
know
the
number
of
lanes
reduced
from
six
to
two
so
I
think
with
these
facts.
C
My
decision
is
pretty
obvious.
I
think
we
are
all
on
the
same
page
of
the
encouraging
people,
leave
their
cars,
taking
public
transit
biking
and
walking.
The
question
here
is:
do
we
need
a
backlink
on
this
arterial
load
now,
especially
in
giving
the
facts
about
how
well
structured
bike
lane
already
exists
on
tens
and
sevens?
It's
not
like
10
blocks
away,
it's
literally
one
block
or
even
less,
depending
on
where
you
go
so
also
I.
Think
I
think.
C
As
we
all
know,
Broadway
is
very
unique
with
all
different
trucks,
transport,
wheel,
Vehicles
loading
deliveries
and
emergency
vehicles.
So
you
know
I
want
to
reiterate
option.
One
is
not
against
backlink,
it
is
not.
It
is
actually
leave
the
possibility
open
for
future
backlink
when
more
data
evidence
are
collected.
C
C
So
I
support
a
pilot
project
with
the
background
available
on
the
on
the
street
first,
so
I
guess
with
that
I'm
gonna
support
her
staff's
recommendation
recommendation,
hey.
A
F
Yeah
thanks
Jeff
circulated
an
amendment
to
the
clerks
I
think
everyone's.
A
Please
go
ahead.
Counselor.
F
It's
pretty
straightforward,
I
think
for
everybody,
it's
just
a
strike
of
the
alternative,
B
and
replace
with
the
staff
recommendation.
A
no
wording
changes
just
just
to
strike
on
and
replace
and
I
guess.
First
of
all,
I
want
to
say
I.
Think
staff
did
a
great
job
of
preparing
the
report.
F
I
know
there
was
a
ton
of
work
that
only
goes
into
providing
the
report
to
council
and
to
the
public,
but
all
the
prep
work
that
goes
into
this
vision
for
the
future
of
Broadway
I
I
know
it's
hard
to
imagine.
Broadway
is
a
great
street
because,
right
now,
honestly,
it's
a
crappy
one
I
think
that's
that's
I.
Think
that's
part
of
the
challenge
here
is
that
there's
lots
of
unknowns.
F
I
listened
to
all
the
speakers
and
what
I
was
listening
for
was
compelling
arguments
not
just
personal
opinions
and
I
I
wanted
to
address.
Instead
of
addressing
all
everything
that
came
up
yesterday,
I
just
want
to
address
something
specifically,
something
that
came
up
on
a
regular
basis
was
the
safety
concerns.
F
I
think
most
people
know
my
background.
28
years
with
the
VPD
and
five
years
of
that
spent
as
a
collision
investigator,
so
I'm
well
aware
of
what
happens
when
we
mix
pedestrians
and
cyclists
and
vehicles
on
the
road.
The
potential
for
horrific
crashes,
life-altering
and
life-ending
crashes,
so
I
heard
a
lot
of
people
say
that
if
we
don't
put
by,
if
we
don't
put
a
bike
lane
in,
we
don't
care
about
people's
safety
and
I
want
to
just
say
that.
F
That's
simply
not
the
case,
I
can
tell
you
wholeheartedly
that
safety
is
a
top
priority,
not
just
for
me
but
I.
Think
for
everyone
here
on
Council,
but
to
go
into
it
and
try
and
explain
all
the
safety
aspects
when
it
comes
to
Traffic.
Safety
is
I'd
need
much
more
than
the
five
minutes
that
I
have
to
speak
here
in
Council
other
than
to
say
that
safety
is
is
a
top
priority.
For
me,
it's
it's
something
that
I
I.
F
F
D
Thanks
this
is
not
surprising,
but
I
will
just
start
by
saying.
You
know
comes
as
no
surprise
to
folks
here
that
I
feel
incredibly
strongly
about
this.
This
is
an
important
moment
and
in
our
term
of
governing,
we
have
a
limited
number
of
these
moments
where
we
are
making
a
very
clear
decision
about
planning
for
the
future
or
or
moving
backwards.
I
see
that
we
are
not
going
to
be
planning
for
a
bold
future
here,
I
hear
all
of
the
the.
D
What
I
will
call
excuses
and
spin
here
we're
going
to
add
parking
back,
we're
going
to
have
a
gradual
approach.
Broadway
is
going
to
remain
a
crappy
Street
for
a
while,
and
it's
going
to
continue
to
be
unsafe
for
scooters
and
bikes
for
for
quite
a
while
I
bike
these
routes
every
week,
I
don't
need
someone
to
explain
the
traffic
safety
concerns
to
me.
I
lived
them,
so
do
many
of
the
speakers
that
we
heard
from
there's
no
better
time
than
now
to
be
doing
this
work.
D
It
is
not
going
to
get
easier.
It
is
absolutely
not
going
to
get
any
cheaper
and
so
I
will
just
say
this
is
a
major
missed
opportunity.
D
I
am
I'm,
angry
and
heartbroken
about
it,
not
just
for
myself
and
my
family,
of
course,
but
for
the
speakers
we
heard
from
for
the
huge
number
of
people
who
currently
live
in
and
travel
through
this
area
and
the
huge
number
who
will
call
the
Broadway
Corridor
home
or
will
come
there
for
work.
We
are
missing
a
significant
opportunity
to
make
it
safer
for
them
to
move
around
and
and
I
and
I'm
very
disappointed
about
that.
A
Okay,
counselor
Classen.
G
Thank
you
chair,
so,
first
of
all,
I
want
to
acknowledge
all
the
people
who've
been
in
involved
in
this
dialogue,
beginning
with
our
staff,
who
clearly
had
to
weigh
some
very
important
options.
Those
who've
had
taken
the
time
to
read.
This
report
will
understand
that
we
were
faced
with
a
lot
of
different
choices.
G
There
was
a
lot
of
things
that
people
want
to
do
with
this
particular
land,
but
this
roadway
this
space
and
what
we
have
heard
so
far
from
staff
is
that
at
this
juncture,
it
makes
it
very
difficult
to
make
a
choice
where
we
squeeze
the
actual
Transportation
aspects
around
this
roadway
for
for
Trucking,
for
shipping
for
getting
East
and
West
in
this
corridor.
G
I
also
want
to
thank
all
the
people
who
come
to
speak.
We
had
42
speakers
on
the
list.
Yesterday
we
heard
from
most
of
them
and
most
of
them
expressed
very
strong
and
passionate
and
I
thought
well
reasoned
arguments
around
why
they
wanted
to
see
more
active
transportation
in
this
route.
However,
what
we
are
planning
to
put
forward
here
with
option
one
is
to
create
a
great
pedestrian
experience,
a
great
people
experience.
This
will
not
be
a
crappy
Street.
G
This
is
going
to
be
a
street
that
people
actually
want
to
go
to
so
I
think
we
have
to
take
into
a
factor
that
this
the
way
from
from
one
side
of
the
road
to
the
other.
We
have
the
opportunity
to
widen
the
sidewalks.
We
have
the
opportunity
to
plant
trees,
we've
heard
about
the
deficit
of
trees
and
the
deficit
of
tree
canopy,
the
important
aspects
around
the
climate
that
that
provides.
G
We
also
want
to
give
people
more
space
to
to
to
live
and
recreate
and
be
a
part
of
these
communities
right
now,
Broadway
is
not
an
attractive
Street.
It
will
be
a
more
attractive
Street.
If
we,
if
we
go,
follow
this
plant,
it
also
leaves
open
the
door
for
the
adaptation
of
these
these
roots.
If
we
desire
in
in
the
future
as
we've
done
with
several
major
streets
in
this
city
over
the
last
15
years,
so
I
think
we
need
to
really
take
a
look
at
what
the
option
is
before
us.
G
We
also
he's
finding
my
time
here.
We
also
have
to
recognize
it
that
that
we
have.
A
number
of
arguments.
Have
been
put
forward,
particularly
around
safety,
we
have
a
calmed
route
that
goes
East-West
for
the
most
of
this
Corridor,
which
staff
in
on
in
our
questions
to
them
have
explained
will
receive
its
own
enhancements.
So
we
have
a
lot
of
other
routes
in
the
city,
including
the
ones
that
run
parallel
to
this
Corridor
that
we're
going
to
have
additional
work
done
to
them
as
well.
G
I
I
just
think
that
we
are
in
a
in
a
challenging
situation,
given
the
fact
that
that
there
is
no
budget
set
aside
for
this
project
right
now,
and
so
for
us
to
start
spending
money
that
we
know
that
will
be
taken
away
from
other
routes
and
other
parts
of
public
infrastructure
that
need
to
be
need
to
be
worked
on
and
are
in
the
on
the
planning
stages.
I
would
be
irresponsible.
I
do
trust
our
staff.
Our
staff
are
known
as
global
leaders
at
creating
active
Transportation.
G
Look
what
we've
done
in
our
city.
We
are
looked
at
as
a
model
for
this,
and
our
staff
are
coming
back
to
us
saying,
let's
hold
off
on
this
one
around,
let's
do
option
one:
let's
widen
the
the
the
the
the
sidewalks.
Let's
create
a
great
experience
on
the
street
for
pedestrians
for
people
and
look
at
the
r
auctions
as
we
move
forward.
I.
Don't
think
this
is
a
zero-sum
game.
G
I
think
this
is
an
opportunity
to
create
a
great
Street
and
make
it
very
even
better
so
I'm
going
to
be
voting
against
or
voting
for,
The
amend,
Amendment
here
and
supporting
option
A
that
was
brought
forward
by
our
city
staff.
Thank.
H
Thank
you,
chair
and
I'd
like
to
add
some
of
my
comments.
I
also
would
like
to
thank
all
the
speakers
who
came
in
person
and
were
on
the
line
late
into
yesterday
evening
to
share
their
perspectives
and
and
very
much
valued
and
appreciated.
Some
of
the
expertise.
I
also
want
to
thank
our
staff
because
it
was
the
last
Council
that
gave
direction
to
staff,
to
examine
the
feasibility
of
this
infrastructure
on
Broadway
and
they've
reported
back
with
their
expert
advice
that
counselor
Claussen
referred
to.
I
want
to
note
as
I
start.
H
My
comments
is
that
we
have
gotten
into
very
binary
conversations
at
times
in
this
city
and
it's
unfortunate
because
in
fact,
when
I
look
around
the
room
here,
if
my
Council
colleagues
is
many
of
us,
are
indeed
cyclists
ourselves
and
are
raising
children
to
be
cyclists
and
and
to
active
transportation
and
are
in
fact,
as
I've
said
before,
multimodal
and
some
of
us
use
vehicles
at
times,
sometimes
we're
using
public
transit
I
was
on
public
transit
today
and
sometimes
Recycling,
and
so
we
need
all
different
modes,
but
just
acknowledging
that.
H
So
we
don't
get
stuck
in
that
binary.
I
want
to
acknowledge
one
piece
that
I
think
is
really
important
in
the
staff
recommendation
is
that
it
actually
is
in
fact
future
proofing
this
street
and
that
that
was
really
clear.
And
so
it's
saying
not.
Never
it's
just
not
now,
and
in
fact,
as
Council
costume
is
acknowledging,
is
that
there
is
an
opportunity
to
adapt
and
in
fact
what
we
need
to
do
first
is
get
that
Broadway
subway
line
in
place
and
I
did
inquire
staff
the
other
day
about
public
transit
on
an
ongoing
basis.
H
So,
in
addition
to
the
subway
line,
we
will
have
local
serving
buses
returning.
We
know
that
Transit
ridership
is
also
increasing
and
going
up
again
post
pandemic,
and
we
also
have
a
significant
Corridor,
which
is
part
of
the
major
road
Network
that
has
to
be
there
to
move
goods
and
services
as
well
as
serve
as
a
a
response
route
for
First
Responders,
as
well
as
to
the
hospital
which
is
a
big
part
of
that
area,
is
vgh.
H
But
we
do
need
to
look
at
a
four-year
Capital
plan
and
I
think
that
we
need
to
be
looking
at
some
of
those
other
areas
that
are
underserved
for
this
infrastructure
and
I
hear
regularly
from
residents
in
the
south
of
vancou
Uber
from
East
Vancouver
about
that
infrastructure
and
and
finally
I
just
want
to
speak
to
the
fact
that
this
area
is
changing
and
and
yesterday
we
made
some
bold
moves
around
housing
without
moving
away
from
a
pace
of
change
policy.
We
have
a
significant
Transit
investment
coming
forward.
H
We
have
adjacent
cycling
routes
and
infrastructure
that
is
going
to
be
upgraded
in
the
years
to
come
and
again,
I
have
confidence
in
what's
been
delivered
here
by
staff,
because
there
are
opportunities
to
adapt
once
we
have
the
subway
line
in
in
three
years,
and
so
for
those
reasons
I
will
be
supporting
the
staff
recommendation.
That's
been
moved.
Thank
you.
A
Thanks
counselor
counselor
class
I'm,
going
to
see
the
chair
to
you
for
a
moment.
A
I
want
to
thank
staff
for
their
well
thought
out
report
on
the
possibility
of
active
Transportation
Lanes
on
Broadway
I
know
we
peppered
you
with
questions
yesterday
from
nearly
every
angle
and
I
feel
really
confident
with
the
recommendation
that
you've
made
for
option.
One
and
I'd
also
like
to
thank
all
the
speakers
who
are
so
passionate
that
spoke
to
us
yesterday.
I
understand
their
passion
for
cycling
and
it's
one
of
the
great
thing
great
things
about
living
in
Vancouver.
We
have
amazing,
cycling,
infrastructure
and
we're
building
more.
A
So
for
me,
this
isn't
a
binary
Choice,
as
some
of
the
other
counselors
have
mentioned.
Not
voting
for
the
bike.
Lanes
on
Broadway
doesn't
mean
that
we
don't
support
cycling
infrastructure,
I'm,
going
to
continue
to
push
for
investment
into
routes
like
the
Portside
Greenway,
which
has
significant
gaps
when
there
aren't
any
alternatives
nearby
or
Kent
Avenue
West
counselor
dominado
mentioned
in
South
Vancouver,
which
I've
written
on,
which
has
you
know
massive
trucks
coming
within
inches
of
cyclists.
In
my
mind,
those
routes
should
be
prioritized,
as
there
is
no
budget
set
aside
for
this
project.
A
Unfortunately,
to
add
the
possibility
of
adding
Lanes
to
Broadway
and
given
that
the
planning
work
has
already
gone
into
the
station
blocks
on
Broadway,
as
we've
heard,
and
there
is
potentially
a
significant,
significant
cost
of
making
changes
to
those
plans.
At
the
last
minute
option,
one
recommended
by
staff
still
keeps
the
door
open,
as
counselors
have
mentioned,
to
adding
Lanes
in
the
future
and
I
feel
confident
about
that
future
possibility
and
as
well.
E
Yeah
well
to
say
that
I'm
disappointed
is
an
understatement.
E
I
think
we
are
I
mean
if
I'm
hearing
my
colleagues
around
the
council
table
from
ABC
colleagues
around
the
council
table
State
Fair
opinions
on
this
I
am
distraught
around
the
fact
that
it
is
actually
putting
Vancouver
slowing
down
Vancouver
in
acting
on
climate
change,
in
acting
around
Public
Safety,
in
in
acting
on
on
a
vision
for
Vancouver,
which
has
us
amongst
the
cities
that
are
really
tackling
these
issues
in
the
most
Progressive
and
bold
ways,
and
we
need
Progressive,
bold
action
in
order
to
really
tackle
the
climate
crisis
and
ensure
that
we
have
a
healthy
future
for
our
children.
E
I'm
hearing
arguments
around
safety
for,
for
example,
it's
not,
we
know,
we've
heard
safety
is
the
best
with
AAA
bike
lanes
for
e-scooters.
For
cyclists.
We've
heard
people
tell
us
that
there
are
many
accidents
that
occur
and
near
accidents
on
the
10th
Avenue
adjacent
bike
route,
which
is
not
really.
It's
certainly
not
a
triple
a
bike
route.
It
is
a
bike
path,
but
it's
got
its
limitations.
It's
not
a
solution.
E
Fiscal
responsibility-
we've
I
I,
just
I,
can't
believe
anybody
in
this
room
is
gonna
is
thinking
it's
going
to
be
cheaper
to
do
this
later
than
now.
Everything
gets
more
expensive
now,
when
the
street
is
torn
up,
is
the
time
that
we
need
to
move
forward
on
this
Triple
A
bike
lane
and
this
and
that
safe
infrastructure.
E
It's
really
important.
It's
really
important
that
we,
we
think
not
only
of
what
is
important
for
the
street
of
Broadway
to
make
it
a
world-class
treat,
and
if
you
visited
any
European
streets,
you
see
them.
I
mean
the
ones
that
in
Copenhagen
and
Amsterdam
many
of
the
German
streets
in
the
Scandinavian
cities.
You
know
they
have
built
that
cycling
infrastructure
into
their
cities
and
more
people
end
up
using
bikes
as
a
consequence,
because
it
is
safe
because
the
infrastructure
is
there
I.
E
Think
of
the
youth
that
spoke
to
us
too,
and
we
know
the
stats
most.
Youth
are
now
not
considering
buying
a
car.
They
want
alternative
transportation.
They
need
the
cycling
infrastructure
that
makes
sure
that
their
use
of
active
transportation
is
as
safe
as
possible.
So
I
am
I'm,
really
very,
very
disappointed
because
I,
you
know
I
love
the
fact
that
Vancouver
has
been
aiming
to
be
one
of
the
world
leaders
on
climate
action
and
you're
rolling
it
back.
E
If
you
vote
for
for
the
the
first
option,
as
opposed
to
be
you're
rolling
back
our
leadership.
C
Thanks
to
her
so
I
think
I
expressed
my
opinion
earlier,
so
I
won't
repeat,
but
I
want
to
emphasize
that
again
most
people
want
walkability
on
Broadway.
You
know
more
than
60
people
ranking
the
working
experience
as
the
top
priority.
C
When
people
see
the
patios
trees,
Street
Furnitures
green
spaces,
whether
pedestrian
walkway
and
the
more
people
will
more
people
will
take
advantage
of
the
public
transit
and
enjoy
working
on
Broadway
with
their
family.
This
will
be
the
best
street
and
continue
to
be
better
and
better
as
we
collect
more
information
and
evaluate
and
then
make
decisions,
so
I
think
that's
exactly
what
option
one
will
deliver.
C
So
I
really
believe
this
is
really
professional
team,
I
trust
their
knowledge
and
the
Judgment.
There
are
so
many
examples
that
are
wrong
decision
because
of
the
non-person
professional
people
give
direction
to
professional
people.
We
need
to
learn
from
those
mistakes
so
again,
so
the
cost
of
this
mistake
will
be
huge
if
we
have
to
undo
this
this
Construction
in
the
future.
So,
as
I
mentioned
in
my
previous
page
I
think
it
is
not
about
making
both
decisions.
C
I
You
very
much
so
I
also
want
to
thank
all
of
the
team
members
for
all
the
incredible
work
that
they
put
in
to
give
us
a
full
picture
of
what
our
options
are
and
I
want
to.
Thank
all
the
speakers
that
did
come
and
take
a
lot
of
time
out
of
their
day
and
their
lives
to
come
and
speak
on
a
very
passionate
issue:
full
disclosure,
every
single
person
in
my
family.
We
are
Avid
cyclists.
We
love
to
mountain
bike,
ride
we
like
to
Road
ride
and
we've
been
traversing
this
city.
I
Actually,
since
I
was
in
grade
four
I
used
to
ride
my
BMX,
my
Mongoose
BMX
from
you
know
the
2800
block
of
East
54th,
all
the
way
down
to
240
West
62nd
in
the
time
you
can
actually
do
that.
So.
Needless
to
say,
I
am
very
Pro:
bike
infrastructure,
I,
Am
pro
multimodal
infrastructure
and
in
a
perfect
world
with
unlimited
resources,
we
would
literally
do
everything.
I
Like
I
said,
we
have
limited
resources
and
we
have
a
greater
need
for
infrastructure
in
many
parts
of
Vancouver
that
is
under
service.
The
Broadway
Corridor
is
one
of
the
most
well-served
corridors
in
the
city.
We
have
a
full
bike
lane
on
10th
Avenue,
with
additional
routes
on
7th,
8th
and
14th,
and
using
limited
funds
in
these
to
build
new
UN.
You
know
not
totally
necessary.
Lanes
on
Broadway
would
impact
our
ability
to
improve
active
Transportation
corridors,
including
Portside,
Greenway,
cant,
Avenue,
East,
Side,
Crosscut,
Robson,
pedestrian
improvements
and
gravel
stream.
I
Now
what
we're
really
talking
about
here
is
answering
the
question
of
whether
it's
a
good
idea
to
spend
10
to
20
million
dollars
to
build
another
bike
lane
when
there's
already
full
excellent
infrastructure.
Literally
one
block
away
it's
about
prioritizing
and
so
I
do
agree
with
councilor
Carr.
I
We
need
to
address
climate
change
and
I
agree
with
her
that
safety.
If,
if
we
have
infrastructure
that
people
will
use,
especially
with
biking
and
it's
safe,
more
people
will
come
out
and
it
will
actually
change
behaviors.
I
So
we
can
address
climate
change
even
more
and
that's
why
I
support
the
amendment
and
option
A,
because
we
can
take
those
limited
resources
and
instead
of
investing
them
in
an
area
that
already
has
a
lot
of
infrastructure,
we
can
go
to
other
parts
of
the
city
to
build
this
type
of
infrastructure,
to
get
people
on
their
bikes,
to
make
it
safer
and
to
change,
behaviors
and
so,
like
I,
said,
I'm
going
to
be
voting
for
the
amendment
and
option
A
to
address
those
issues.
The
shared
goals
that
counselor
Carr
has
just
mentioned.
A
Thanks
mayor
councilor,
Frye.
J
Thanks
chair
and
for
giving
me
folks
for
popping
in
and
out
there
I
had
a
couple
things
on
the
go.
I
won't
be
supporting
this
amendment.
I
do
want
to
acknowledge
and
appreciate
the
work
that
staff
have
put
into
all
these
options
and
considerations,
and,
and
indeed
sitting
through
the
multiple
speakers
and
I,
appreciate
the
irony
of
me
speaking
against
the
staff
recommendations
here
in
their
professional
expertise.
Just
yesterday,
I
was
speaking
in
favor
of
Staff
professionalism
and
expertise
in
defending
their
recommendations
for
a
piece
of
Change
Report.
J
Yes,
here
we
are
so
I
do
appreciate
the
the
the
the
expert
engineering
opinion
and
I
want
to
just
reflect
that
that
you
know.
I
do
also
share
a
vision
for
Broadway
as
a
great
Street.
I
think
that'd
be
fantastic,
but
a
great
street
is
a
street
that
welcomes
all
users
and
has
active
Transportation.
J
You
know
Paul
store,
who
brings
a
lot
of
expertise
to
this
described
the
other
day.
The
Broadway
isn't
a
commuter
through
Fair,
really
it's
destination
for
the
street,
and
when
we
talk
about
this
great
Street
on
Broadway,
we're
talking
about
making
a
better
destination,
we're
talking
about
patios
and
trees
and
more
generous
sidewalks
and
stuff,
and
we
need
to
recognize
that
people
are
going
to
really
need
to
get
there
and
I
was
really
impressed
with
the
first
Speaker
we
had
yesterday,
who
talked
about
the
grade
and
I.
J
You
know
I
really
never
thought
about
the
great
issues
so
much
I
cycle
here,
almost
every
every
day
and
I
really
appreciate
cycling
away
from
here,
because
it's
all
downhill,
that's
fantastic,
but
but
but
the
reality
is.
It
is
that
last
little
bit's
a
bit
of
a
hump
and
when
we're
asking
people
to
ride
along
8th
and
use
that
as
the
as
the
bike
route
and
then
ride
up
the
hill
to
go
to
their
destination
on
Broadway
and
then
ride
back
down
the
hill
and
then
ride
back
up
there.
That's
Bonkers!
J
That's
scary!
Do
you
got
buses
coming
up
behind
you?
It's
it's
not
a
great
place
to
ride
a
bicycle
and
I've
done
it
the
time
to
do
this
is
now
we
got
the
streets
ripped
up,
there's
not
a
lot
of
traffic
on
Broadway
that
we've
normally
seen-
and
this
comes
back
to
that
whole
notion-
that
I
brought
up
a
few
times
about
induced
demand.
If
we
build
the
active
Transportation,
Lane
people
will
come
if
we
build
more
car.
Lanes
more
cars
will
come.
J
This
is
the
time
where
we
make
these
kind
of
visionary
decisions
to
really
Define
what
a
great
street
is
going
to
look
like
it's
not
going
to
be
any
cheaper.
It's
not
going
to
be
more
practical
to
revisit
this
later.
In
fact,
there'll
be
more
encumbrance
because
nobody's
going
to
want
to
rip
up
Broadway
again
I
guarantee
you
that
and
we'll
never
see
this
happen,
and
you
know
we
really.
We
can
have
it
all.
J
Just
you
know
want
to
reflect
that
that
when
we,
when
I
was
first
elected
in
2018,
you
know
the
whole
idea
of
of
people
zipping
around
the
city
on
Electro
scooters
was
not
a
thing
and
and
actually
thanks
credit
to
the
work
of
you
know:
ABC
counselor,
Sarah,
Kirby
young,
who
really
pushed
hard
to
see
those
micro
mobility,
scooters
piloted
in
our
city
and
like
to
to
embrace
this
opportunity
with
the
provincial
government
to
like
pilot
micro
mobility
in
the
city
of
Vancouver
in
electoral
Mobility,
I,
I
I.
J
Think
it's
it's
ludicrous
to
assume
that
we
can
have
a
safe,
welcoming
great
streak
with
people
on
scooters,
zipping
down
the
sidewalk.
It's
not
going
to
happen.
It's
not
a
safe
Street.
It
doesn't
become
a
pedestrian-friendly
street.
It
actually
becomes
like
more
of
a
of
an
awkward
Street
to
navigate,
and
we
know
that
if
we're
gonna
talk
about
patios
and
restaurants,
we're
going
to
have
food
delivery
guys.
This
is
an
opportunity
to
really
think
forward.
Think
future,
and
and
do
it
right
now
so
I'm
I'm
not
going
to
support
this
amendment
I
really
wish.
J
A
You
chair
thanks
Council
fry
okay,
see
no
one
else
on
the
Queue
to
speak
to
the
amendment
I'm
now
going
to
call
the
vote
clerk.
If
you
could,
please
move
us
to
the
voting
panel
and
counsel.
If
you
could
please
register
your
vote
on
the
voting
panel.
A
Okay,
the
motion
carries
in
opposition
counselor,
Carr,
counselor
Boyle
and
counselor
fry
councilor,
Kirby,
young
and
councilor
Bly,
both
absent
we'll
now
go
to
the
main
motion
or
the
main
queue.
F
No
sure
I
I,
don't
think
so.
I
think
I'll
just
leave
it
where
we
left
it.
G
No
thanks
very
much
chair.
Thank
you.
D
Thanks
I
just
will
be
brief
in
saying:
there's
been
a
lot
of
nice
comments
about
active
Transportation
about
climate
action.
I
am
glad
I
guess
to
hear
them,
but
none
of
it
means
anything
until
it
hits
the
ground
for
people.
We
are
only
six
months
into
our
term,
but
we
have
been
missing
opportunities
to
make
it
hit
the
ground
for
people.
D
The
the
intergovernmental
panel
on
climate
change
put
out
their
last
of
six
reports
a
week
or
two
ago,
and
it
was
incredibly
clear
the
urgency
that
we
need
to
be
acting
with
and
and
this
decision
could
not
be
in
more
stark
contrast
with
that
urgency.
So
we
have
three
and
a
half
more
years
to
make
the
kinds
of
changes
that
that
really
future
proof
our
city
for
residents.
D
We
see
these
impacts
every
season
to
our
infrastructure,
to
the
health
of
the
people
around
us
and
particularly
to
the
health
of
people
who
are
already
struggling
the
most
to
seniors
to
people
with
health
conditions.
Already.
These
are
real
impacts
and
the
decisions
we
make
like
this
decision
have
real
impacts
on
people's
health
and
safety
and
all
of
the
nice
statements
that
we
can
make
about
climate
about
theoretically
supporting
these
types
of
changes.
H
Thank
you,
chair
I'll,
just
add
some
further
final
closing
remarks
in
that
regard.
Is
that
we're
not
talking
about
theoretical
application?
This
city
is
investing
multi-millions
of
dollars
in
resilient
infrastructure,
climate
adaptation
mitigation
Investments
around
building
retrofits
EV
charging
stations.
We
are
probably
making
the
largest
investment
in
all
the
municipalities
in
this
province.
I
could
be
wrong.
A
Thank
you,
councilor
domnatto,
okay,
see
no
one
else
on
the
Queue.
I
am
now
going
to
call
the
vote
on
the
final
motion
as
amended
clerk.
If
you
could,
please
take
us
to
the
voting
screening
Council.
If
you
could
please
register
your
vote
on
the
voting
panel.
A
Do
you
devote
a
system
there
in
favor
apologies.
I
was
premature.
The
motion
carries
with
counselor
Carr
in
opposition
counselor
Boyle
in
opposition
counselor
fry
in
opposition,
councilor
Kirby,
young,
absent
and
councilor
Bly,
absent.
A
Okay,
we
had
a
request
yesterday
to
hold
item
12
or
consider
item
12,
but
given
Council
dominado,
no
no
longer
wishes
to
hold
this
item
for
question.
There's
no
presentation
may
I
have
a
motion
to
vary
the
agenda
to
accept
report
12
before
we
continue
with
the
next
item:
okay,
counselor
Montague,
all
those
in
favor
say
yay,
any
opposed
saying
a
motion
carries
thank
you.
A
It
will
now
move
on
to
item
two
or
pardon
me.
Seven.
The
seventh
item
on
the
agenda
is
67
West
6th,
Avenue,
turntable,
Hospitality,
Corporation,
Mount,
Pleasant,
vintage
and
Provisions
dual
license
liquor
primary
license
application,
liquor,
establishment
class
two.
Does
any
member
wish
to
declare
a
conflict
of
interest
on
this
item.
K
Council,
my
name
is
Sarah
Hicks
I'm,
the
chief
licensed
inspector.
We
don't
have
a
presentation
on
the
report
today,
but
we
do
have
staff
as
well
as
the
applicant
available
for
questions.
Okay,.
A
F
Yeah
thanks,
chair
I,
was
reading
through
the
report
and
also
some
email
correspondence
that
I
got
regarding
some
of
the
concerns
from
area
residents
about
a
change
in
the
license,
and
one
of
the
things
that
came
up
from
a
couple
of
people
was
disturbances
in
the
neighborhood
late
at
night,
and
I
noticed
that
there
was
some
potential,
mitigating
efforts
being
made
on
behalf
of
the
business
owners,
but
I'm
just
wondering
if
we
could
expand
on
that
and
specifically
as
to
whether
or
not
there
was
previously,
this
business
had
door
staff
and
how
that
is
going
to
work
in
the
future.
K
M
F
Okay,
thanks
thanks,
chair
yeah,
so
my
question
is
basically
we've
heard
some
complaints
about
noise
in
the
neighborhood
disturbances
in
the
neighborhood
as
a
result
of
patrons
leaving
the
business
and
I
see
in
the
report
that
there's
some
things
that
you're
planning
on
doing
to
mitigate
some
of
that,
but
I
specifically
wanted
to
know
about.
F
N
Yeah,
absolutely
this
is
fine.
You
can
hear
me.
This
is
my
first
time
here.
Thank
you
for
having
me
I'm
I
come
from
a
feedback
driven
background,
so
I
worked
for
Earl's
restaurants
on
their
executive
team.
The
last
10
years
and
feedback
is
something
that
I
I
value
a
ton.
So
the
information
session
six
weeks
ago,
when
I
had
a
chance
to
sit
down
with
the
neighbors
and
and
collect
all
their
feedback
was
gold.
There
were
so
many
things
that
they
brought
up.
N
That
I
could
do
better
in
my
business
that
we're
already
implementing
so
far.
Everything
that
we
work
together
on
I
have
list
and
I'm
crushing
everything.
So
one
of
the
noise
complaints
was
an
audio
barrier.
So
in
the
front
we
just
have
some
Hedges
that
were
planted.
We
have
a
quote:
the
trees
are
going
to
be
in
early
April
and
we
have
12
foot
Hedges
going
all
the
way
across
the
front
which
is
going
to
to
seal
that
up.
The
other
thing
that
we've
done
is
we
removed
the
speakers
off
the
front
patio.
N
N
A
camera
and
security
monitoring,
so
something
I
did
was
take
one
of
our
cameras
and
move
it
in
a
better
position
outside.
So
now
we
can
see
the
front
of
our
restaurant.
So
now,
when
we
collaborate
with
the
neighbors,
we
have
a
better
idea
of
what's
going
on
all
the
time.
N
And
then
the
big
ones
so
we'll
see
when
I
go
into
my
presentation
a
bit
earlier
later,
that
we
have
put
up
a
bunch
of
signage
and
started
creating
a
different
flow
within
the
restaurant
itself.
So
over
the
last
six
weeks
identifying
the
the
the
idea
for
doorman
and
Security
One
Security
is
very
expensive
and
right
now
we're
not
profitable
and
security
has
to
have
insurance,
and
it's
a
few
hundred
dollars
a
night.
N
So
I
personally
have
been
the
doorman
for
the
last
six
weeks
on
Friday
Saturday
nights
for
every
weekend,
but
one
that
was
my
brother's
40th,
so
I've
been
out
there
from
9
pm
until
midnight,
reading
a
book
on
the
front
porch
every
Friday
and
Saturday
acting
in
this
position.
N
In
that
time,
I
learned
a
lot
I
learned
that
some
of
our
guests
are
Rowdy
when
they
walk
out
and
it's
pretty
easy
to
to
mitigate.
But
more
concerning
is
just
that.
Our
our
guests
are
having
a
good
time
there
are
speakers
inside
and
when
they
walk
outside
it's
loud
immediately,
even
if
they're
waiting
for
an
Uber.
So
it's
not
just
our
our
guests.
That
may
may
have
be
causing
a
bit
of
trouble.
It's
all
the
time
we
have
people
that
are
just
loud
and
those
houses.
They
can
hear
everything.
N
So
what
we're
doing
right
now
is
we
have
created
new
signage
I'll
show
you
in
the
presentation
that
we
have
an
exercise
that
says
please
respect
our
neighbors
with
a
big
shush
when
you
walk
outside
there's
a
massive
smoking
sign
that
directs
people
down
the
block
where
we
put
up
an
ashtray
away
from
the
neighbors
and
a
third
sign,
that's
outside
continuing
to
direct
them
in
the
right
way.
That.
N
The
signage
has
been
up
for
four
or
five
weeks.
The
ashtray
went
in
three
weeks
ago
when
it
came
from
ulines
over
the
last
six
weeks.
We
jumped
on
everything
immediately
and
as
it's
arrived,
and
we
designed
the
signs,
we
had
them
printed.
We
put
them
up
as
quick
as
we
we
possibly
could.
So.
The
signage
is
super
cool,
I'll
show
it
to
you
when
we
go
through
it.
Doorman
is
one
of
the
job
I'm
doing
right.
Now,
we've
already
posted
the
position.
It's
been
posted
for
three
weeks.
N
A
A
A
You'll
still
have
time:
okay-
apologies
about
that
thanks
clerk
for
pointing
clerks
for
pointing
that
out.
Okay,
any
more
questions
for
staff
from
Council,
not
seen
any.
So
we
will
now
hear
from
the
registered
speakers
for
this
item.
First
speaker
is
verand,
shun
I,
hope,
I'm
pronouncing
that
correctly
in
person.
I
think
that's
him
there
hi
good
afternoon.
O
Thank
you
Mayor,
Sam
and
counselors
for
this
opportunity.

O
I
join
all
other
residents
whose
homes
are
on
this
block
on
West
6th
in
opposition
to
this
application
before
I
share
for
share
my
reasons
for
opposing
this
I
would
first
like
to
confirm
that
mayor
and
Council
received
a
link
to
a
short
video,
montage
titled
mpvp
footage
compilation
for
City
Council.
O
O
So
it's
a
clip
that
shows
the
behavior
of
large
crowds
of
MP
VP
patrons
as
they
leave
The
Establishment,
screaming
yelling,
throwing
light
bulbs,
pylons
and
other
projectiles,
sometimes
well
in
the
evening
hours
as
well
as
the
way
that
the
acoustic
design
of
the
building
directs
and
amplifies
sound
to
adjacent
residents
of
the
various
Clips,
which
range
from
last
September
up
until
just
last
week.
The
most
alarming
video
was
this
incident
involving
possibly
six
Mount
Pleasant
vintage
and
Provisions
patrons
at
12
30
a.m.
O
In
the
morning
February
18th
six
weeks
ago,
which
lasted
approximately
20
minutes,
all
all
neighbors
discussed
being
awoken
by
this
two
people
called.
The
police
is
also
very
important
to
note
that
this
incident
happened
after
a
meeting
with
residents
hosted
by
The
consultancy,
Firm
Rising
tides,
during
which
representatives
of
the
business
promised
impacted
residents
that
they
would
work
to
address,
concerns
around
noise,
security,
safety
and
large
crowds.
O
Promises
that
you
will
see
in
the
video
have
not
been
met.
Mount
Pleasant,
vintage
and
Provisions
was
open
during
this
time
of
this
incident
and
sadly,
mpvp
staff
were
present
on
the
premises
and
watched
the
scene
without
intervening
or
calling
the
police
putting
the
public
safety
responsibility
on
the
residents.
O
I
would
also
like
to
point
out
that
the
council
report
before
you
is
inaccurate
in
relation
to
community
impact,
as
is
it
not
reflective
of
existing
city
data
regarding
noise
complaints
and
numerous
residents
calls
to
the
police,
non-emergency
line
and
9-1-1.
Regarding
this
business,
City
staff
were
notified
about
this
missing
data.
They
insist.
The
report
could
not
be
amended
to
include
this
data
in
time
counsel.
O
What
I
believe
this
video
shows,
as
do
the
numerous
similar
experiences
reported
by
residents
to
both
the
police
and
the
City,
is
that
mpvp
is
not
currently
living
up
to
the
responsibilities
and
guidelines
of
their
current
liquor
license
to
manage
the
large
intoxicated
crowds
from
their
establishment
that
they
entertain
and
as
such,
they
should
not
be
considered.
For
this
extra
license,
what
I'd
like
to
add,
most
importantly,
is
that
a
liquor
primary
on
our
quiet
street
is
just
a
bad
fit.
O
The
owner
of
mpvp
knows
this
business.
The
idea
of
a
liquor
primary
license
directly
across
from
a
quiet
row
of
households
on
an
otherwise
quiet
side
street
away
from
downtown
should
have
been
obvious
from
the
start
to
be
a
plan
that
is
pitted
against
the
existing
households
on
our
street.
There's
been
a
shock
to
all
of
us.
What
has
developed
here,
and
we
all
have
taken
a
day
off
work
yesterday
and
as
well
today
to
be
here
in
the
hopes
that
a
Justice
season
is
made
to
reject
the
application
for
an
extended
liquor
license.
A
Thank
you
very
much
for
coming
in
to
speak
today.
Thank
you.
Apologies
for
the
delay.
Yesterday
we
had
a
lot
of
speakers.
Oh
it's
a
busy
day.
It
looks
like
yeah.
Thank
you.
Well,
we
actually
have
questions
before
you
leave
the
podium
from
counselor
Frye.
Please
go
ahead.
Sure
and.
J
Hi
and
I
don't
know
how
many
more
folks
have
signed
up
to
speak.
Oh
I
think
there
might
be
10
or
11.
yeah,
oh
okay,
okay,
good
to
know!
Thank
you.
J
O
O
We
had
a
meeting
yeah
six
weeks.
Well,
that
was
more
than
six
weeks
ago.
That
was
when
was
that
meeting
early
January
okay
six
weeks
ago
right.
This
incident
happened
after
that
Dara
and
our
neighbor
went
over
to
visit
with
to
check
out
the
situation
after
that
event
and
knocked
on
the
door.
Nobody
responded
to
him.
They
didn't
seem
to
be
getting
out
and
getting
involved
with
clearing
up
the
melee.
So.
J
Okay,
okay,
I
I,
guess
that
was
it
I
just
wanted
to
get
the
sort
of
yeah
clarification
there.
Thank
you.
Okay.
Thank.
O
A
A
So
you
have
up
to
five
minutes.
Please
go
ahead
when
you're
ready,
okay,.
P
My
name
is
Susan
and
I've
been
a
resident
of
the
zero
to
100
block
West
6th
Avenue
Vancouver
for
31
years
I'm
here
today
to
ask
mayor,
Sim
and
all
of
our
city
councilors
to
please
consider
and
support
my
total
opposition
to
the
new
dual
liquor
primary
license:
application
for
the
business
located
at
67,
West
6th,
Avenue
Vancouver
not
being
familiar
with
process
protocol.
It
was
with
great
dismay.
P
I
was
made
aware
only
us
now,
seven
days
ago,
prior
to
this
meeting,
that
the
collective
expressed
concerns
and
multiple
complaints
submitted
to
the
city,
non-emergency
and
911
police
made
by
myself
fellow
residents
and
the
owners
of
a
commercial
business
on
our
block
are
not
accurately
included.
Nor
are
our
voices
inclusively
represented
in
the
report
before
you
today.
P
Since
the
business
opened,
we've
experienced
unreasonable
amounts
of
disruptive
noise
levels
affecting
our
ability
to
comfortably
enjoy
the
use
of
our
homes
interrupting
and
preventing
sleep,
repeated
incidents
of
discarded
litter
around
our
vehicles
and
front
Lawns.
We
have
been
subjected
to
inebriate,
patrons
yelling
obscenities
and
communicating
with
raised
voices
hooting
whistling
screaming
and
hollering.
P
There
have
been
instance
of
trespassing,
including
urinating,
on
our
Lawns
people,
sitting
on
our
front
steps
without
moving
to.
Let
me
pass
I
have
on
a
few
occasions
felt
unsafe
to
exit
my
vehicle
upon
arriving
home
at
night
when
parking
in
front
of
my
address
in
our
permit
parking,
Zone
being
afraid
to
exit
my
vehicle
due
to
a
learning
group
of
men
who
appeared
to
be
drunk
disorderly
is
not
something
I
had
ever
experienced
prior
to
this
business
operating
on
our
blog.
P
It
is,
in
light
of
the
invested
nature,
ongoing
and
continuous
disturbances
that
I
am
opposed
to
an
increase
in
time
and
capacity
to
what
is
for
us
an
already
untenable
situation
when
incidents
escalate.
We
have
had
to
get
up
out
of
bed
to
look,
see
and
determine
if
anyone
is
in
need
of
immediate
help,
then
we
often
have
to
wait
on
hold
for
long
periods
of
time,
while
placing
a
call
to
the
non-emergency
police,
if,
indeed,
you
can
successfully
get
through,
especially
on
weekends.
P
We
then
have
to,
as
suggested
by
the
police,
in
order
to
have
our
concerns
recognized,
make
a
complaint
and
include
the
record
of
the
non-emergency
police
complaint
in
our
record
of
a
complaint
to
the
city.
It
seems,
in
my
view
and
understanding
that
the
Mount
Pleasant
vintage
gym
provisions
is
already
unable
to
meet
some
of
the
terms
and
conditions
of
its
current
license
with
regard
to
Good
Neighbor
and
business
practices
and
the
ability
to
meet
some
of
the
requirements
of
their
responsibilities.
P
For
example,
the
business
and
their
employees
are
responsible
for
controlling
the
behavior
of
patrons,
and
they
are
required
to
take
steps
to
ensure
their
business
does
not
disturb
the
surrounding
community.
In
the
broader
sense
of
my
understanding,
no
person
shall
make
or
cause
any
noise
or
sound
in
the
street
or
similar
public
place,
which
disturbs
or
tends
to
disturb
unreasonably
the
quiet,
peace,
rest
enjoyment,
Comfort
or
convenience
of
persons
in
the
neighborhood
or
vicinity.
The
prevalent
negative
impact
of
this
level
of
disruptive
noise
and
disturbance.
P
This
business
currently
exposed
us
to
has
eroded
the
quality
of
Our
Lives,
causing
duress
and
distress
in
a
manner
that
we
should
not
have
to
endure
on
the
street
where
we
live,
I
believe
any
extension
of
hours
or
increased
capacity
would
exacerbate
our
very
challenging
difficult
and
problematic
situation
in
our
immediate
vicinity
and
community.
I
would
like
to
take
this
opportunity
to
point
out
that
we
have
several
Food
and
Liquor
licensed
locations
in
our
neighborhood
and
surrounding
environment
that
we
support
and
enjoy
and
that
operate
without
causing
disruptive
disturbances
and
noise.
P
A
Thank
you
see
no
questions.
We'll
move
to.
Excuse
me,
speaker,
three
Darren
Fleet.
Do
we
have
Darren
here
on
the
phone
potentially.
Q
Q
Oh
great,
thank
you
very
much
greetings
Council
and
mayor,
and
thank
you
for
taking
the
time
to
hear
us
today
out
of
a
very
busy
couple
of
days
for
all
of
you.
My
name
is
Dr
Darren
Fleet
I'm,
a
university
Professor
here
in
the
city
of
Vancouver
and
I,
live
across
the
street
right
from
the
front
door
of
Mount,
Pleasant,
vintage
and
Provisions
and
I
have
three
children:
ages.
Q
Nine,
six
and
seven
months
old
and
I've
lived
in
my
home
for
14
years
and
I
see
two
of
those
children
were
born
in
our
home.
I
oppose
this
motion.
Q
I've
spoken
to
the
business
owner
operator
on
many
occasions
and
I
believe
them
to
be
a
kind
person
and
I
want
it
to
be
known
that
my
opposition
to
this
license
is
in
no
way
personal,
but
rather
due
to
the
significant
documented
and
good
faith
concerns
about
security
safety,
noise
and
the
behaviors
of
large
crowds
as
they
exit
the
business.
Q
Often
carrying
on
the
inside
party
outside,
as
many
of
you
hopefully
now
have
seen
by
the
Montage
prepared
for
you
today
of
residents
experiences,
which,
of
course
is
only
a
snapshot
of
what
we
have
experienced.
It
is
often
the
impacted
community
and
not
the
applicant
that
has
been
forced
to
Bear
the
brunt
of
the
negative
and
disruptive
behavior
of
some
of
their
patrons,
including,
of
course,
that
15
to
20
minute
projectile
flight
in
the
middle
of
our
street
on
February
18th
at
12
30
a.m.
Q
Six
weeks
ago,
which
again
I
have
to
stress,
if
you
can
believe
it
involved,
light
bulbs,
pylons
glass,
bottles
and
other
projectiles
that
were
thrown
both
at
people
and
at
other
businesses,
and
that
particular
incident,
of
course,
is.
One
of
our
speakers
has
already
said.
Only
ended
when
I
called
9-1-1
and
police
broke
it
up,
I'm,
not
at
all
against
the
applicant,
having
a
successful
business,
of
course,
and
bringing
in
a
new
and
welcome
flavor
and
character
to
the
neighborhood.
Q
I
also
want
to
note
that
there
are
three
other
licensed
establishments
that
are
of
approximate
distance
to
the
impacted
residences
closest
to
the
applicant,
some
with
seating
of
up
to
140.,
to
my
knowledge
of
the
experience
of
the
impacted
Community,
there
have
been
no
issues
with
these
establishments
relating
to
noise
or
aggressive
crowds,
and
no
calls
to
the
police
extend
out
even
one
more
block,
and
then
there
are
three
microbreweries
and
the
Anza
Club.
Q
Again
to
my
knowledge,
there
has
been
no
issues
for
the
impacted,
Community
represented
here
and
then,
of
course,
there's
all
of
Main
Street.
Despite
what
you
may
read
in
the
application
before
you,
there
is
no
shortage
of
places
to
drink
in
our
neighborhood.
Q
What
I
suggest
is
that
what
the
business
license
proposal
before
you
today
here
does
is
approved
is
lock
in
a
relationship
of
permanent
conflict
where
the
impacted
Community
has
one
sense
set
of
interests,
which
is
public
safety,
security,
reasonable
levels
of
noise
akin
to
other
established
businesses
and
the
interests
of
a
single
business
which
is
Mount,
Pleasant,
vintage
and
provision
which,
if
I
understand
the
license
correctly,
would
transform
into
a
nearly
200
seat,
liquor
primary
service
with
closing
hours
as
late
as
2
A.M
on
some
evenings
I
see
no
police
calls
and
calls
to
9-1-1
even
do
not
continue
to
persist,
but
in
fact,
drastically
increase.
Q
No
doubt
great
costs
to
the
city
and
policing
resources.
If
this
application
is
approved,
I
am
aware
that
many
members
of
this
Council
have
expressed
commitments
to
Public
Safety
in
the
city
of
Vancouver,
and
so
I.
Ask
you
that
you
please
take
the
significant
Public
Safety
concern
in
addition
to
noise
brought
forth
here
today
into
consideration.
Q
When
you
make
your
decisions
and
also
again,
please
keep
in
mind
that
the
most
serious
incident
to
date,
which
is
a
911
emergency-
call,
happened
after
a
public
consultation
with
the
business
where
various
commitments
about
noise,
public
security
and
Public
Safety
were
made.
Q
Lastly-
and
this
is
more
of
a
personal
note-
I
asked
council
members
and
mayor
having
seen
a
glimpse
of
what
we
are
facing.
Imagine
this
was
your
community.
Imagine
this
was
your
home.
Q
Imagine
it
is
your
family
who
has
to
be
on
edge
every
evening
until
well
past
midnight,
your
three
children
asleep
waiting
again
for
when
it
is,
you
will
have
to
call
the
police
or
maybe
step
outside
at
somewhat
great
personal
risk,
to
deal
with
a
20
or
30
or
40
person,
or
even
larger
aggressive
bar
crowd
gathered
in
the
street
in
front
of
you.
Thank
you
for
your
time.
A
Thanks
very
much
for
calling
in
Darren
we'll
now
go
to
speaker
number
four
Leyland,
May,
Ian,
Wang,
hope
I'm
pronouncing
that
right,
hi
good
afternoon.
R
Noon:
hi
Council,
my
name,
is
Leland
Wong
I
was
born
and
raised
in
Mount,
Pleasant
and
I
first
moved
to
6th
Avenue
in
2017.
R
I'd
like
today
to
discuss
noise
and
safety
as
it
relates
to
Mount,
Pleasant,
vintage
and
Provisions,
and
the
block
that
I
call
home.
So
during
the
February
8th
meeting,
hosted
by
The,
Establishment
and
Rising
tide
Consultants,
which
has
been
discussed
a
little
bit
today,
14
residents
of
the
block
shared
our
concerns
about
safety
and
disruption.
Despite
us
testifying
to
the
negative
impacts
it
has
had
on
our
lives.
Rising
tide
Consultants
repeatedly
responded
by
asking
us,
but
where
do
you
go
out?
R
They
wanted
to
hear
which
bars
and
restaurants
we
frequent
to
identify
a
gap
in
the
sector.
Well,
I
can
tell
you
I,
eat
and
drink
at
Taco,
Fino
faculty
Brewery
craft
and
a
lesion
regularly.
The
question
was
an
actuality
moot
because
it
overlooked
what
the
conversation
was
about.
It
was
about
disruption
to
the
comfort
and
safety
of
our
homes
and
our
well-being,
not
about
what
businesses
we
enjoy.
R
Home
is
nothing
if
you
don't
feel
safe.
Since
the
bar
opened
only
nine
months
ago,
I've
experienced
anxiety
about
safety
both
inside
and
outside
my
home,
I
feel
on
edge
sitting
on
my
front
porch
as
drunkenly
loud
patrons
come
and
go
not
only
being
unnecessarily
boisterous
or
doing
things
like
throwing
pipe.
R
So
my
door
is
105
feet,
steps
away
from
Taco,
Fino,
88,
Steps,
From,
LA
fabric
St
George,
the
wine
bar
and
then
74
steps
away
from
Mount,
Pleasant,
vintage
and
Provisions,
and
despite
the
similar
distances
between
these
locations
in
my
home,
I
have
never
once
been
disrupted
by
the
noise
of
the
other
bars
or
their
respective
patrons
Nora
felt
unsafe.
Because
of
these
patrons
as
well.
The
concerns
outlined
today
are
specific
to
Mount,
Pleasant,
vintage
and
Provisions.
R
Lastly,
I'd
like
to
highlight
my
concerns
by
discussing
the
limitations
of
acoustic
measurements
in
protecting
residents
under
the
city's
Noise
by
law.
Acoustic
measurements
are
the
only
method
used
to
indicate
noise
level
of
an
establishment.
So
this
means
that
a
singular
one
minute
recording
of
noise
coming
from
the
establishment
is
used
to
represent
the
noise
produced
by
the
location
at
all
times
or
its
whole
operation.
R
The
licensing
office
of
the
city
is
aware
of
this
limitation.
They
explain
so
themselves
to
me
over
the
phone,
noting
that,
if
a
bar,
if
a
bar
becomes
aware,
then
a
measurement
is
taking
place,
they
often
turn
down
their
music
close
the
door
or
ask
patrons
to
be
quiet,
and
therefore
many
measurements
are
inaccurate
and
misleading.
R
I
draw
attention
to
this
limitation
to
highlight
the
responsibility
of
noise
and
safety
control
that
it
has
been
taken
away
from
the
business
business
and
has
been
placed
instead
on
residents
and
the
police.
Before
me,
Brent,
Susan
and
Darren
demonstrated
that
we
feel
on
edge
every
weekend
trying
to
protect
our
comfort
and
safety
by
resorting
to
calling
the
police.
R
So
the
questions
are:
how
can
the
city
ethically
hand
out
licenses
if
noise
control
bylaws
are
not
protecting
citizens?
How
can
the
licenses
be
granted
when
they
knowingly
lay
responsibility
on
residents
and
the
police,
threatening
not
only
our
sense
of
home
and
safety,
but
also
wasting
police
resources?
R
A
Thank
you.
Thanks
for
coming
to
speak
today,
see
no
questions.
We'll
go
to
speaker
number
five
Rosa
balani
do
we
have
rose
rose
on
the
phone
hi
Rose.
Is
that
you.
S
Thank
you,
hello,
Council.
Thank
you
so
much
for
hearing
me
today.
S
My
name
is
Rosa
balani
and
I
live
at
14
West
6th
Avenue
in
Vancouver,
which
is
right
across
the
street
from
Mount
Pleasant
vintage
and
provision
I
have
lived
in
Mount
Pleasant
since
2009
and
I've
lived
in
this
home
for
the
last
few
years,
and
up
until
recently,
I
felt
just
incredibly
lucky
to
have
such
a
tight
knit
community
in
a
in
a
community
environment
that
really
it
felt
like
home
and
over
the
last
seven
months
since
Mount,
Pleasant,
vintage
and
Provisions
has
opened
that
feeling
of
home
has
been
greatly
changed.
S
But
the
main
issue
here
is
the
massive
impact
that
Mount
Pleasant,
vintage
and
Provisions
has
had
on
the
lives
of
people
living
on
this
block
and
the
fact
that
these
issues
have
been
inadequately
addressed
over
the
last
seven
months
of
operation
as
a
community.
We
have
tried
our
best
over
the
last
seven
months
to
speak
directly
with
the
owner
with
the
city
of
Vancouver,
with
the
police
to
mitigate
these
issues.
However,
as
it
has
been
described,
these
issues
have
continued
until
the
present
day.
S
The
noise
from
Mount,
Pleasant,
vintage
and
Provisions
is
greatly
in
excess
of
a
reasonable
level
that
would
be
expected
on
a
mixed
residential
and
Commercial
Street,
and
it's
completely
out
of
character
from
the
many
other
restaurants
bars
and
breweries
that
exist
within
even
a
four
block
radius
of
our
home.
The
speaker
before
me
mentioned
some
of
these.
In
particular,
the
noise
can
be
heard
from
inside
my
bedroom
until
1
or
2
am
currently.
S
I
also
want
to
add
that
people
are
very
drunk
and
when
they
leave
the
bar,
even
with
the
current
license.
I
know
this
because
I
see
it
from
my
bedroom
window,
which
faces
just
over
the
entrance
of
Mount
Pleasant
vintage
and
Provisions
I've
seen
people
trying
to
push
down
the
trees
on
the
sidewalk
I've
seen
people
just
full
on
tackling
each
other.
I've
seen
people
climbing
the
parking
signs,
I've
watched
people
breaking
bottles
just
for
fun
on
the
sidewalk.
S
If
this
is
what's
happening
with
the
current
license,
I'm
worried
what
the
state
of
things
will
become
if
there
is
a
liquor
primary
license
with
extended
hours
in
conclusion,
I'm
speaking
in
opposition
of
the
extension
of
the
liquor
primary
license,
application
for
Mount,
Pleasant,
vintage
and
Provisions
and
I
greatly
appreciate
your
consideration
today.
Thank
you.
A
T
Okay,
thank
you
so
much,
it's
so
lovely
to
meet
everybody
mayor
and
Council
over
the
phone.
My
name
is
Dr
prophecy,
sun
and
yes,
that
is
my
legal
name.
I'm,
an
interdisciplinary
artist,
professor
at
Emily,
Carr,
university
of
Art
and
Design.
My
research
practice
is
focused
on
immersive,
sound
installations.
Video
and
performance
I
have
written
several
book
chapters
and
journal
articles
on
these
subjects
and
have
also
designed
and
exhibited
multi-channel
video
sound
installations
regionally
locally,
as
well
as
internationally
around
the
world
I'm.
T
Also,
the
mother
I'm
also
a
resident
of
the
zero
to
100
block
of
6th,
Avenue
and
I.
Ask
that
you
please
toggle
through
the
photographs
that
I
presented
earlier
and
I'm,
hoping
that
you
can
look
at
these
as
I'm
speaking
I
oppose
the
new
dual
liquor
license:
application
for
the
business
located
at
67
West
6th
Avenue
in
Vancouver
here,
I
oppose
it
for
many
reasons,
but
I
would
like
to
focus
on
two
specific
ones
here.
T
The
first
reason
is
inadequate,
sound
baffling
which
the
business
has
not
adequately
addressed
the
front
of
the
restaurant
and
the
patio
facade
are
mainly
made
of
concrete
and
wood.
The
exterior
ceiling
of
the
restaurant
and
the
patio
is
constructed
so
that
it's
like
a
box
and
the
music
and
the
crowd,
noise
and
conversations
bounce
off
all
of
the
tall
walls,
the
overhanging
exterior
ceiling
and
the
attic,
and
it
the
inadequate
structures
that
travel
like
an
Amphitheater
directly
towards
my
home
and
the
other
residences
across
the
opposite
side
of
the
street.
T
At
present,
you
will
see
that
in
Council
report
that
you
have
before
you,
the
Mount,
Pleasant,
vintage
and
Provisions
indicates
that
they
intend
for
music
on
the
patio
until
9
00
PM.
The
business
has
not
added
or
used
any
dampening
techniques
like
what
is
used
in
a
recording
studio
or
a
parking
garage
to
mitigate
this
acoustic
deficiency.
The
sound
frequency
is
significantly
Amplified,
and
this
is
contrary
to
bylaws
that
stipulate
that
speakers
must
be
within
the
building.
Currently,
the
mix
of
sounds
with
patrons
talking
and
yelling
and
music
is
not
contained.
T
This
has
been
a
significant
change
in
the
environment
of
our
street.
I
live
in
an
old
wood
house,
and
the
noise
transfer
is
very
audible
inside
my
home,
even
in
my
bedroom
and
where
my
children
sleep,
even
with
the
windows
closed
and
the
noise
maker
on
at
full
volume.
During
that
time,
the
children
are
still
awake.
The
level
of
sound
makes
it
really
hard
to
live
in
our
space
comfortably
and
also
acquire
and
have
a
good
bedtime.
It
feels
like
a
concert
hall.
T
The
business
has
planted
a
row
of
eight
short
brush
bushes
to
create
a
barrier.
This
is
not
substantive
enough
to
create
any
sound
mitigation.
I
have
repeatedly
experienced
that
they
are
entirely
inadequate
to
create
a
meaningful
muffled
sound
separation
for
the
other
residents
and
businesses
on
the
Block
when
patrons
are
on
the
patio
or
outside
their
voices.
T
Carry
and
can
the
sound
can
boom
and
move
around
like
a
car
horn,
despite
numerous
requests
to
the
city
for
a
noise
inspection
from
the
location
of
the
impacted
properties,
in
particular
the
late
evening,
hours
have
not
been
followed
up
to
my
knowledge.
Over
the
last
seven
months,
not
a
single
inspector
has
come
to
measure
the
noise
levels
from
the
impacted,
Community
dwellings,
despite
complaints
every
month.
T
My
second
reason
for
opposing
this
application
is
about
crowd
management,
the
continual
noise
from
the
business
from
the
patrons
inside,
as
well
as
outside,
who
are
coming
and
going
late
at
night.
It's
very
erratic
intermittent
and
at
times
very
continual.
This
has
caused
much
disruption,
as
I
was
mentioning
in
my
home,
at
bedtime
and
throughout
the
entire
evening
into
the
early
hours
of
the
morning.
A
major
concern
is
that
the
business
does
not
manage
their
patrons
as
they
leave
the
building
and
also
the
vicinity.
T
Often
this
what
happens
is
they
stand
outside
and
smoke
near
the
premises
and
the
disturbances
continue.
The
significant
increase
in
foot
traffic,
car
traffic
and
Patron
noise
over
the
past
seven
months
continues
to
disrupt
my
household
and
block
and
Carries
On.
Thank
you
very
much.
T
Thank
you,
mayor
Sim.
If
you
take
a
look
at
the
structure
of
the
building
itself,
there's
a
large
facade.
That's
all
glass!
That's
not
the
issue!
What
the
issue
is
the
restaurant
itself,
the
way
that
the
sound
is
Amplified?
It's
like
I
was
mentioning
in
a
box
everything
it
it
just
booms
out
from
that
one
location
and
it's
the
proximity
of
the
ceiling,
the
height,
the
walls
and
everything
is
concrete.
There's
nothing
in
any
way
to
stop
or
dampen
those
sounds,
and
everything
on
the
patio,
including
voices.
Does
such
things.
A
It
just
makes
it
bigger
and
bigger
thanks
for
calling
and
I
am
gonna
have
to
your
your
time,
but
I
appreciate
that
additional
context.
A
Okay,
we
will
now
go
to
actually
sorry
speaker.
Seven
did
withdraw
so
we'll
go
to
speaker.
Eight,
it
says:
withdraw
on
my
list.
A
Okay,
I've
got
a
old
speakers
list
here,
so
we're
just
going
to
get
an
updated
copy.
Okay,
so
speaker,
seven,
we
do
have
speaker.
Seven
is
kihan.
Yoon
Henderson
is
that
do
we
have
that
person
on
the
line.
A
V
Okay,
thank
you
counselors
and
mayor
mayor
today.
My
name
is
Henderson
and
I
am
a
resident
of
the
zero
to
100
block
of
West
Sixth
Avenue
I
live
in
one
of
the
houses
directly
across
from
Mount
Pleasant
vintage
Provisions,
which
you
can
see
in
the
photos
in
front
of
you
and
I
oppose
the
Dual
license
application
by
this
establishment
before
you
today.
V
The
existing
problems
on
our
block
would
be
exacerbated
by
the
extension
of
hours
allowed
for
in
the
license
being
applied
for
I.
Ask
you
to
hear
our
concerns
and
take
them
into
full
consideration.
As
you
make
this
decision.
Finding
housing
in
this
city
is
difficult.
I
heard
that
mentioned
many
times
by
counselors
during
the
meeting
yesterday.
V
V
Be
able
to
sleep
at
night
and
feel
safe,
I
feel
concerned
that
we
will
be
asked
to
continue
to
do
this
out
of
necessity
later
into
the
night,
if
Mount
Pleasant,
vintage
improvisions
receives
this
license,
as
you
can
see
by
the
presence
of
many
residents
on
the
Block
who
have
taken
the
time
to
be
here
today,
both
over
the
phone
and
in
person.
This
concern
is
very
serious
to
us.
I
hope
it
is
apparent
to
you
all
today
that
we're
not
resistant
to
change
in
our
neighborhood.
We
celebrate
new
neighbors,
both
as
business
and
residents.
V
Instead,
what
we've
been
working
to
protect
ourselves
against
is
conditions
that
did
not
respect
the
needs
of
neighborhoods
with
working
people
and
Families.
For
these
reasons,
and
given
the
residential
nature
of
the
exact
block
that
this
business
operates
on
I
ask
you
to
deny
the
application
by
Mount
Pleasant,
vintage
and
Provisions.
Thank
you
for
your
time
and
for
your
consideration.
Thank.
A
A
Okay,
we
will
go
to
speaker
number
eight
Bert,
hick.
L
Good
afternoon
we
we
support
the
application.
I
support
the
application,
as
presented
to
you
and
I'd
like
to
bring
to
your
attention
the
provision
in
the
policy
in
the
in
the
report
prepared
by
Sarah
and
her
staff
on
page
two,
where
staff
recommends
approval
of
this.
Well
thanks
the
reason
I'm
for
that
is,
there's
two
types
of
licenses
in
British
Columbia
food,
primary
liquor
primary
the
city
determined
years
ago
that
they
would
have
control
over
liquor
primary
licensed
establishments.
L
The
city
will
have
far
greater
control
over
this
establishment
as
a
liquor
primary
license
than
it
does
now,
as
a
food
primary
it'll
be
subject
to
a
Time,
limited
development
permit
it'll
be
subject
to
acoustical
report,
a
good
neighbor
agreement
and
very
regular
inspections,
I
very
much
support
the
Dual
licensing
concept
and
I.
Think
it's
a
great
way
to
assist
the
hospitality
industry
and
Council
last
year
did
a
great
move
by
of
adopting
and
allowing
for
dual
license
establishments.
L
Cameron
will
speak
to
the
specific
issues
that
were
brought
up
earlier,
but
I
can
tell
you
I
close
to
this
community,
because,
apart
from
coming
to
City
Hall
and
hanging
around
the
city,
council
chambers
I
also
do
part-time.
Acting
and
to
the
east
of
this
building.
You've
got
a
substantial
acting
industry,
you
got
go-to
ghost
Studios,
you've
got
acting
places,
you've
got
the
casting
workhouse
and
we
are
always
looking
for
places
to
go
that
are
in
this
neighborhood,
either
to
celebrate
or
commiserate
more
commiseration
than
anything.
L
And
to
me,
this
place
is
a
welcome
addition
to
the
other
places
you
have
in
this
area.
People
don't
want
to
have
to
cross
Bridges
or
move
out
of
their
neighborhood
to
enjoy
good
food
and
quality
establishment,
and
this
to
me
is
a
good
fit
for
this
area.
Matter
of
fact,
in
both
20
minutes
from
now,
I
might
be
looking
for
a
place
to
go
to
have
a
sandwich,
but
I
think
that
the
fact
that
you'll
have
much
greater
control
as
a
flicker
primary
speaks
volumes.
L
We
did
have
a
community
meeting,
we
heard
from
the
community
from
that
and
from
that
Cameron's
made
a
lot
of
changes
to
make
certainly
is
a
good
neighbor,
and
one
thing
he
forgot
to
mention
earlier
when
he
spoke
was
the
fact
that
he's
given
a
cell
phone
number
to
all
the
neighbors,
so
they
can
phone
him
directly
if
there's
a
concern
or
a
problem.
So
thank
you
very
much.
A
Thank
you
Bert.
We
will
now
go
to
speaker
number
nine
Nadine
McDowell.
Do
we
have
any
oh
you're
here
in
person
hi,
so
we
have
up
to
five
minutes
dating.
Thank.
X
You
good
afternoon,
Mr
Mayor
members
of
council.
Thank
you
for
allowing
me
the
time
to
speak
with
you
today,
I'm
here
to
speak
in
full
support
of
this
application
for
a
dual
license
for
a
Mount,
Pleasant,
vintage
and
Provisions.
I
too,
am
a
resident
of
the
area.
No
I
do
not
live
across
the
street,
but
I
am
a
mere
three
blocks
away.
X
This
venue
is
not
only
unique
in
its
offerings
because
there
is
nothing
quite
like
it
in
the
area,
but
it
is
one
of
the
most
welcoming
and
warm
Hospitality
venues
around
the
staff
are
friendly,
knowledgeable
and
the
environment
is
such
in
my
experience
that
I
can
go
sit
at
the
bar
as
a
single
female
and
feel
very
safe
and
very
well
taken
care
of
I've
always
left
through.
The
back
entrance.
X
I
have
always
witnessed
both
Cameron
and
all
of
his
staff
being
very
Vigilant
in
informing
the
patrons
that
they
must
leave
quietly
and
respect
the
neighbors.
They
have
established
themselves
as
a
community
Gathering
Place,
where
everyone
is
welcome.
I
see
business
people
after
work,
friends,
meeting
up
kids
running
around
the
front
area
and
residents
like
me,
every
time
I
go
there.
X
I
know
Cameron
the
operator
and
I
can
tell
you
without
hesitation
that
this
man
is
someone
who
has
invested
his
blood,
his
sweat
and
his
tears.
Just
to
make
a
community
Hub
happen
for
Mount
Pleasant.
He
cares
so
much
about
this
community
and
wants
to
build
something.
Very
special
I
know
that
he
has
gone
out
of
his
way
to
be
inclusive,
accommodating
and
Cooperative
with
the
residents
of
the
area.
X
Despite
what
you
may
have
heard
today,
he
is
a
responsible
businessman,
he's
just
trying
to
earn
a
living
and
provide
a
venue
that
adds
value
to
our
community
and
as
a
resident
I,
don't
have
to
get
in
an
Uber
or
get
on
a
Sky
Train
and
go
downtown
or
into
yelltown.
I
can
invest
in
my
own
neighborhood
in
my
own
backyard,
on
the
heels
of
kovid,
where
the
hospitality
industry
was
hit
so
very
hard.
Many
small
operators
had
to
close
their
doors
and
say
farewell
to
the
only
businesses
they
have
ever
known.
X
I
ask
for
your
consideration
of
this
license
for
this
small
operator,
who
deserves
a
chance
to
keep
his
doors
open.
The
profit
margin
you
may
not
understand
for
restaurants
is
under
three
percent
without
a
later
business
extension
where
sales
can
be
increased,
this
operation
will
likely
yet
be
another
to
close
its
doors
I
for
one
I
think
that
would
be
a
very,
very
shameful
thing
to
happen
so
I.
Thank
you
very
much
for
your
time
and
your
consideration.
X
Y
Good
afternoon,
mayor
council,
I'm,
sorry
couldn't
be
there,
but
it's
the
bridge
traffic
in
North
Vancouver,
but
I
just
want
to
just
say
this,
as
our
hospitality
industry
is
is,
as
we
know,
is
so
important
to
to
the
fabric
of
British
Columbia,
and
it
showed
a
huge
responsibility
during
the
pandemic.
I
know
that
personally
I
know
we
were
able
to
move
our
industry
on
a
dime
when
it
came
down
to
discipline,
and
the
reason
for
that
is-
and
let's
not
forget
this-
we
in
Cameron
he
is
in
the
hospitality
business.
Y
It's
the
in
the
definition
of
the
friendly
and
generous
reception
and
entertainment
of
guest
visitors
and
your
premises
at
large
in
the
neighborhoods
that
you
occupy.
So
much
of
the
industry
now
is
centering
on
and
I.
Think
Nadine
put
it
very
well
where
people
want
to
stay
closer
to
home,
they're
working
at
home
and
they
want
to
have
places
that
represent
their
the
values
of
their
neighborhood
and
all
the
things
that
go
with
that.
They
don't
necessarily
want
to
get
in
a
car
and
travel.
Y
They
don't
want
to
be
going
to
places,
they
don't
know
and
I
I
really
feel
confident,
and
you
know
with
how
Cameron's
approached
this
whole
business
that
you
know
the
last
thing
he
wants
to
do
is
go
underwater
and
most
restaurants
are
underwater.
Y
It's
also
equally
important
for
him
to
attract
staff,
and
it's
also
equally
important
to
have
the
flexibility
in
dual
Licensing
in
a
labor-starved
industry,
where
short,
thirty
thousand
people
to
allow
some
flexibility
later
in
the
evenings.
Although
it's
going
to
stay,
food
focused
there'll,
be
less
emphasis
and
a
little
bit
less
pressure
on
on
the
stopping
side
of
it.
So
what
Bert
said
I
totally
agree.
There's
you
know
the
agreement
to
Thailand
to
developments,
there's
good
neighbor
agreements
and
there's
the
acoustic
reports.
Y
I
think
the
city's
got
a
lot
of
control,
but
you
know
honestly
I,
don't
think
you're
going
to
need
to
enact
any
of
that
stuff
with
care.
I
mean
the
heart
and
soul.
He
wants
to
make
it
a
good
business
and
I
fully
support
it.
On
behalf
of
the
industry
of
British
Columbia.
Thank
you.
A
Thank
you
very
much.
Ian
appreciate
the
comments
we'll
go
to
speaker,
Levin
Ameren
Bogue
here
in
person,
hello
again.
N
Welcome
do
you
guys
have
my
deck
that
I
sent
over.
A
A
N
Well,
there's
only
a
we'll
go
through
them.
If
you
don't
mind:
okay,
yeah,
so
please
go
ahead
cool.
My
name
is
Cameron
Bogue
I
am
the
owner
operator
of
Mount
Pleasant,
vintage
and
I
am
for
the
approval
of
our
dual
license:
I've
been
in
Hospitality
for
25
years
and
which
time
I've
opened.
28
restaurants
I've
worked
for
some
of
the
world's
best
operators
around
the
world
and
and
just
love
the
hospitality
industry
and
want
to
offer
some
of
this.
N
These
Trends
to
to
Vancouver
in
my
28
restaurants,
I've
opened
restaurants
for
Daniel
ballude
in
New,
York
City
for
peer
Management
in
Las
Vegas,
and
for
the
last
10
years.
I
was
the
on
the
executive
team
of
Earl's
restaurants
running
their
their
beverage
program.
N
So
hospitality
is
is
definitely
in
my
blood
and
when
I
was
looking
to
open
a
restaurant
I
thought
no
further
than
Vancouver,
because
the
huge
opportunities
in
this
market
Vancouver
is
a
place
that
I
wanted
to
come
back
to
my
career
started
in
Whistler
I
was
born
in
the
Pacific
Northwest,
so
coming
back
to
Vancouver
was
huge
for
me,
but
more
than
that
was
the
opportunities
in
the
city.
N
Vancouver
is
a
city
that
is
way
behind
in
culinary
Trends,
with
our
newest
cocktail
bars
being
about
12
years
old
with
a
poor
house
diamond
and
kefir
I
just
know
that,
what's
going
on
in
the
world,
there's
a
lot
of
opportunity
for
new
trendy
restaurants
and
I
believe
that
I'm
I'm,
the
guy
to
do
that.
My
goal
ultimately
is
to
provide
a
neighborhood
bar
and
grill
as
a
community
Gathering
space
and
late
night
destination.
N
N
We've
we've
heard
the
incident
on
tape
and
everything
that's
happened
in
the
last
six
weeks
since
we've
met
my
position
at
the
bar
has
changed
that
I'm
working
the
door
for
the
last
six
weeks
on
Friday
Saturday
nights
from
9pm
till
till
close
to
ensure
that
everything
is
happening
smoothly,
even
under
my
own
eye,
the
one
night
in
question
that
things
still
do
go
awry
I'm,
not
perfect,
and
this
is
an
extreme
example
of
it.
I
worked
the
bar
from
the
door
from
nine
till
midnight
at
midnight.
N
I
went
in
to
do
some
managerial
duties.
The
only
last
table
were
a
group
of
eight
people
who
are
friends
with
an
employee.
It
was
my
poor
assumption
that
they
would
behave
and
be
good
guests.
They
left
15
minutes
after
we
closed
and
we
were
benign
to
the
incident
happening
until
until
the
next
day.
Again,
I
am
very
feedback
prone
and
I
would
love
the
feedback
from
my
neighbors.
They
all
have
my
cell
phone
numbers,
but
I
have
not
received
a
single
call
in
the
last
four
months.
N
N
If
we
go
to
that
second
slide
that
you
just
started,
these
are
the
things
that
I've
gone
and
addressed
some
of
your
issues
from
our
last
meeting,
I
I
can
have
my
patio
open
to
11
I
realize
that
it's
loud
we're
choosing
to
close
our
patio
completely
at
10
o'clock,
which
I
think
is
better
for
families
in
the
neighborhood
and
we're
closing
our
doors
at
nine,
which
limits
all
the
music
coming
from
the
inside.
Our
speakers
are
removed
in
the
top
right.
You
can
see.
N
We
moved
our
CCTV
camera
to
have
a
view
of
the
street
and
we
have
rooted
wild
BC
who
quoted
on
Hedges,
which
will
be
available
in
April
at
the
12
foot
length.
So
this
will
all
enclose
that
area
and
keep
the
sound
inside
of
our
patio
next
slide.
Please
inside
so
here
are
the
signs
that
I've
added
the
first
top
left.
You
can
see
directly
out
my
front
door.
We
put
a
giant
smoking
sign
with
an
ashtray
further
in
the
distance
on
the
street.
Sign.
N
There's
another
sign
saying:
please
be
good
to
our
neighbors,
and
here
you
can
see
for
context
what
our
neighborhood
is
across
the
street.
There's
an
illegal
weed
shop
to
the
left,
there's
an
illegal
Rave
venue
above
that
there's
an
illegal
porn
Studio
next
to
it
and
to
the
right
there's
another
illegal
Rave
venue,
I'm,
not
the
only
contributor
to
this
neighborhood
I,
don't
serve
drinks
in
red,
Solo
cups,
there's
a
lot
of
other
contributors
to
the
the
noise
in
this
neighborhood.
N
The
next
slide
is
commitments
that
I've
made
so
the
door
person.
We
are
actively
hiring
security
in
a
door
person.
We're
hoping
to
have
somebody
on
board
for
April,
8th
I
as
owner
have
been
acting
in
this
role,
but
we're
gonna
have
them
come
on
board
and
do
this
during
my
time
operating
the
front
door.
I've
noticed
that
guests
are
loud
and
even
our
good
guests
come
outside
and
waiting
for
an
Uber.
N
Their
voices
are
elevated
and
even
while
they're
nice,
it's
really
loud
and
living
in
the
old
houses,
I'm
sure
you
can
hear
everything
so
one
recommendation
that
they
come
up.
That
I
didn't
think
about
was
thinking
of
an
alternative
exit.
This
was
one
that
I
rushed
really
fast
through
our
strata
and
we
have
put
these
flyers
on
for
the
last
the
last
month.
So
this
is
something
that
inside
we
have
full
exit
signs.
Every
single
one
of
our
guests
gets
a
a
flyer
about
our
neighborhood.
N
Where
we're
we
care
about
our
neighbors
and
are
too
often
our
Good
Times
carry
outside
and
keep
them
up
at
night.
Please
exit
through
the
back
after
10
pm,
and
we
have
a
recommended
Uber
pickup
site
a
spot
on
Manitoba.
So
we're
already
doing
this
and
at
the
same
time,
I'm
out
there
checking
decibels
the
entire
time,
which
is
very
quiet
unless
that
car
drives
by
or
one
of
our
our.
A
Guests,
sorry
Cameron
you're
our
time,
but
you
got
questions
so
we'll
go
to
counselor
Montague.
F
It
does
seem
like
there's,
maybe
a
just
a
little
bit
of
a
lack
of
communication
between
you
and
the
Neighbors
at
this
point,
and
now
the
business
has
been
operating
for
how
long
six
months,
okay
and
how
long
ago,
did
you
start
if
you
could
sort
of
go
through
one
by
one
when
you
started
implementing
all
these?
So
when
did
the
signs
go
in.
N
F
The
alternate
exit
from
10
pm
onward
out
the
back
door
when
did
that
get
implemented.
N
We've
been
trying
it
for
the
last
three
weeks
last
week
was
extremely
successful,
so
there
were
some
learning
curves,
just
creating
a
new
flow
through
the
restaurant
and
how
people
exit
took
some
communication
with
our
staff.
A
lot
of
learning
this
flyer
got
better.
It
wasn't
didn't,
communicate
the
pickup
spot
as
well,
so
we
put
up
more
signage.
So
up
until
the
last
three
weeks
we've
been
working
on
it
and
we
nailed
it
last
weekend
have.
N
Trying
to
trying
to
change
our
pickup
spot
to
then
drop
off
location
to
the
corner.
F
A
You
councilor
Frye.
J
J
I'll
talk
fast,
so
thanks
for
joining
us
thanks
for
joining
us
appreciate
the
presentation.
Are
you
aware
that
that
the
way
this
is
going
to
work
with
the
issuance
of
a
dual
license?
J
N
Yeah,
it
was
my
ideal
place.
I
always
wanted
to
be
in
Mount
Pleasant
from
from
starting.
This
Vancouver
is
a
place
that
everything
is
isolated
in
certain
areas
because
of
our
licensing.
Granville
Street
is
extremely
young.
Gastown
is
extremely
dangerous.
I
wanted
to
be
somebody
where
there
was
a
little
bit
more
fun
and
affluent
I
love
this
neighborhood,
because
we
are
three
blocks
off
the
beaten
path.
We
do
have
the
accessibility
to
be
loud
off
our
back
patio
and
quiet
up
front
and
that
we
we
have
neighbors
from
Olympic
Village.
N
We
have
Main
Street
and
we
have
Broadway
so
I
love
that
we're
a
little
bit
off,
because
when
restaurants
open
in
dense
areas,
it's
it
usually
causes
more
issues.
So
I
wanted
to
be
in
that
area
and
I
wanted
to
be
in
that
area
to
feed
my
community.
My
goal
is
to
be
a
late
night.
Dining
destination
and
I
want
my
friends
from
Como
from
Taco
Fino,
who
are
all
getting
off
at
10,
30
and
11.
J
N
Straight
up,
It's
My,
Success
I'm,
currently
failing
I'm,
currently
losing
money.
Nothing!
That's
that's
detrimental
at
this
point,
but
we're
not
profitable.
We
have
not
been
profitable
for
six
months
and
we
are
hitting
our
Roi
we're
just
not
hitting
the
profit
side
of
it.
We
currently
are
rolling
out
lunch
business,
but
we
also
need
our
dinner
business,
which
is
part
of
our
business
plan
for
the
incremental
night
sales.
N
N
Is
going
up,
but
my
food
costs
and
liquor
costs
are
all
pretty
static
based
on
cost
of
goods,
so
it
is
just
the
incremental
sales,
our
fixed
cost.
Our
everything
in
our
restaurant
stays
the
same
as
soon
as
we
have
Night
sales.
The
labor
is
a
very
small
incremental
cost
to
the
sales
they're
going
to
come
in
and
and
make
my
business
successful.
These.
A
I'm,
just
no
worries
I'm
just
noticing
the
time
dinner
time
that
we
had
planned,
but
you
do
have
more
questions
I,
just
wondering
if
there's
a
motion
to
extend
yeah
motion
to
extend
your
questions,
speak
questions
to
the
speaker,
yeah,
okay,
so
moved.
Okay,
all
those
in
favor
say
yay,
anyone
to
post,
say,
nay,
a
motion
carries
up.
Next
is
counselor
Kirby
young
yeah.
M
Thank
you
hi
over
here.
Okay,
sorry
I,
just
joined
I
had
here
for
the
first
part,
but
I
noticed
you
said
and
I
haven't
been
to
your
space
because
it's
been
an
awful
lot
of
time
here,
although
I've
been
wanting
to
take
a
look
at
it,
but
you
notice
that
you
said
one
of
the
things
you're
doing
is
closing
the
patio
front
doors
and
I'm
just
trying
to
visualize
I've
looked
at
some
photos.
Is
it
an
open
patio,
but
how
are
the
doors
closed
to
a
patio.
N
Yeah,
so
the
developer
con
West
built
the
restaurant
use
space
with
nanowalls
if
you're
familiar
with
those
they're,
the
accordion
doors
that
open
the
entire
space
up.
It's
20
feet
by
eight
feet
high,
so
my
space
is
a
large
rectangle
with
two
patios
on
each
side
and
the
doors
open
completely,
so
my
space
looks
open
throughout.
So
on
my
front,
patio
are
basically
inside
pores
outside
and
we
close
those
doors
completely
at
nine
o'clock
which
stops
any
of
the
inside
sound.
And
then
we
vacate
the
patio
at
10.
N
The
back
until
11,
when
you
have
to
close
the
the
patios
okay.
N
M
N
I
haven't
received
any
complaints.
I
got
the
one
with
the
police
the
next
day,
so
I
was
in
the
restaurant,
while
the
incident
in
hand
were
were
eight
of
our
guests.
There
were
a
friend
of
our
our
employee
named
Gareth,
half
of
the
group,
our
young,
and
not
drinkers.
They
left
the
restaurant
after
I
was
inside,
doing
managerial
duties
and
what
they
did
was
vandalize
my
property.
They
took
Christmas
lights
off
plastic
ones
off
my
my
building
and
started
throwing
them
at
each
other
and
took
cones.
So
this
was
all
vandalizing.
N
M
M
But
do
you
feel
I
guess
the
question
being
because
I
appreciate
that
it
takes
a
while
to
work
out
the
Kinks
of
this
and
neighborhoods
are
changing
and
evolving
and
growing,
and
also
wanted
to
be
responsive
to
the
resident
feedback.
You
feel
comfortable
and
confident
the
measures
you're
putting
in
place
are
sort
of
genuine
good
faith
efforts
and
you
can
address
some
of
the
issues.
N
Yeah
I'm
an
empath
at
heart,
like
I,
really
want
people
to
like
me.
I'm
a
people
pleaser
and
I
want
to
work
closely
with
my
neighbors
I
think
I'm,
showing
everything
I
can
to
go
above
and
beyond,
and
listen
to
the
feedback
and
and
fight
to
make
it
quieter
for
them.
So
I'm,
absolutely
confident
this
hour
is
crucial
for
my
business
to
succeed
and
I
will
continue
to
be
better
with
my
neighbors
I
will
not
stop
learning
from
my
mistakes
and
and
becoming
better
because
of
them.
Okay,.
N
A
You
thanks
councilor
dominato.
H
W
H
Aggregate
noise
I'm
curious,
if
you
given
what
we've
heard
from
a
number
of
the
Neighbors
about
the
noise
of
having
that
be
even
earlier
than
10
pm
of
having
people
exit.
You
know
more
by
maybe
nine
o'clock
or
is
there
any?
Is
that
something
you've
thought
about?
Is
sort
of.
N
Yes,
very
good
question:
we
we
actually
started
at
nine.
It
was
just
a
bit
awkward.
It's
still
bright
out.
People
are
finishing
dinner,
it's
like
it's,
it's
not
it's
still
loud
outside
cars
are
going
by
it's.
The
outside
vibe,
in
my
opinion,
didn't
require
us
to
be
quieter
outside
between
nine
and
ten,
but
if
it
is
I'm
totally
in
okay,
you're,
just
awkward
making
people
like
stuff
the
back
when
it
was
bright
and
not
loud
out,
yeah.
H
No,
no
I
appreciate
it
and
also
I'm
just
curious.
If
the
do
you
operate
any
other
businesses
right
now
in
Vancouver.
N
This
is
my
very
first
business
and
this
is
all
independently
funded.
This
is
no
big
money.
I
don't
come
for
money.
This
is
the
house
that
I
worked
with
my
partner
to
save
it's
all
on
the
line
I've
personally
guaranteed
against
it.
Double
private,
Equity,
Mortgage
and
I
have
four
friends:
that's
cash
is
all
in.
We
have
no
folders,
aqualines
or
gagularities
here.
This
is
just
creatives,
taking
a
risk.
H
I
appreciate
that
and
I
I
know
my
dad
had
a
small
business
and
I
know
it's
not
easy.
I
just
want
to
ask
one
more
question.
Just
in
the
context
of
of
the
the
session
that
was
held
with
the
neighbors
facilitated
by
your
consultant
is,
is
have
you
had
an
opportunity
to
have
that
kind
of
face-to-face
discussion
previously
with
the
neighbors
or
is
it
something
that
could
be
more
on
an
ongoing
basis
and.
N
Through
a
good
news,
it's
ongoing
so
when
I
first
opened
it
was
gangbusters,
we
didn't
expect
to
have
the
Press
of
the
most
anticipated
restaurant
in
Vancouver.
So
our
first
six
weeks
with
the
sun
was
just
it
was.
We
were
trying
to
get
a
wrap
on
and
keeping
our
head
above
water
and
at
that
point,
I
was
quite
disruptive
in
learning
as
we
went
and
we
were
talking
and
then
when
the
patio
closed,
there
wasn't
much
concern
over
the
winter
months.
N
We
didn't
have
a
lot
of
communication
until
the
the
the
six
weeks
ago,
information
session.
H
AA
H
H
N
Time
chair,
but
I
would
love
more
time
with
the
neighbors,
like
I
said
they
do
have
my
number
Darren,
the
one
speaker
is
who
I
do
talk
with
him
and
I
stopped
by
his
patio,
we'll
catch
up
and
and
and
chat
as
much
as
we
can.
So
he
is
the
one
neighbor
I
am
in
contact
with
out
of
the
group
as
a
point
of
contact.
Okay,.
A
C
N
Yeah,
so
I
continue
wanted
to
work
with
them
as
often
as
possible.
Ever
since
six
weeks
ago,
I
tried
to
start
a
WhatsApp
group
with
everybody
with
no
luck,
I
really
want
to
engage
with
my
neighbors
at
this
point.
It's
just
there's
a
bit
of
polarity,
but
I
believe
we
can
get
there
and
I
will
continue
to
work
as
hard
as
I
can
to
mitigate
the
sound
and
and
be
a
good
neighbor,
regardless
of
the
outcome
here,
like
I,
am
going
to
be
a
fantastic
neighbor.
Okay,
thank
you.
A
That's
all
my
question:
hey
thanks,
Cameron
for
answering
all
those
questions
and
we
are
gonna
break
for
dinner
and
resume
at
5
30..
So
thanks
everybody.
A
And
we
will
go
to
speaker
number
12
Ben
Ross.
Do
we
have
Ben
on
the
phone.
Z
Great
thank
you,
hello,
mayor
Sim
and
Council.
Thank
you
for
your
time.
Today.
My
name
is
Ben
and
I'm.
A
frequent
guest
of
the
zero
to
100
block
of
West
6th
Ave,
my
partner
and
friends,
live
on
the
Block
right
across
from
Mount
Pleasant
vintage
and
provision.
I
am
in
opposition
to
this
motion.
I
wanted
to
quickly
touch
on
Cam's
comments,
so
we
heard
just
before
the
break
as
much
as
I
like
him
as
a
person
and
wish
him
great
success.
Z
AA
Z
Reach
outs
need
to
be
happening
from
both
sides,
and
that
was
not
something
can
appear
to
take
seriously
from
the
very
start
now
I'd
like
to
use
the
rest
of
my
time
today
to
read
a
letter
from
David
Green
owner
of
Sacred
Heart
Tatsu,
located
at
25
West
6th
Avenue,
a
few
door
down
a
few
doors
down
from
Mount
Pleasant,
vintage
and
provision.
It
is
important
to
hear
voices
of
other
businesses
in
this
conversation,
so
I'm
happy
to
share
it
on
his
behalf.
Z
So
from
David
his
letter
reads
along
with
my
business
partner,
we
have
run
our
business
for
30
years
in
Vancouver
after
hearing
Studio
after
having
studios
in
Catalano
the
West
End
and
in
the
Grandville
Entertainment
District,
we
chose
to
relocate
to
Mount
Pleasant,
specifically
the
block
we
are
on
for
the
potential
for
creativity
and
its
community.
After
having
experienced
the
Havoc
of
running
a
business
in
the
Graniteville
Entertainment
District,
we
found
Mount
Pleasant
industrial
park
in
the
community.
Z
Area
as
well
as
the
residential
community
that
lived
and
worked
in
the
area,
there
are
plenty
of
young
families
who
spend
much
of
their
time
in
the
Parks
and
using
the
facilities
provided.
The
block
we
are
on
holds
block
party
is
kid-friendly
and
the
park,
oh
sorry,
block
party
is
kid
friendly
and
the
park
adjacent
to
our
our
block
is
a
regular
provider
of
concerts
and
events.
After
having
mpvp
open
at
67
West
6th
last
year,
we
have
experienced
a
noticeable
increase
in
not
only
the
noise
level
from
the
outdoor
sound
system.
Z
They
are
using
at
full
volume,
but
the
amount
of
vandalism
trash,
broken
beer
bottles,
restaurant
glasses,
as
well
as
once
again
reminiscent
of
our
time
on
Granville
Street
having
a
clean
vomit
in
in
human
waste
from
our
vestibule
regularly,
not
to
mention
the
inadequate
venting
system
that
was
allowed
to
be
installed
for
the
wood
burning
stove,
which
vents
into
the
alley
a
heavy
burning
smell.
Throughout
the
day
we
have
installed
extra
cameras
and
security
to
help
track
where
this
is
all
coming
from.
Z
Z
The
community
and
area
does
not
need,
nor
would
benefit
from
a
full
licensed
liquor.
Primary.
The
owners
of
the
premises
have
shown
that
they
are
not
able
to
work
in
consideration
to
the
immediate
Community,
both
residential
and
Commercial,
nor
have
they
shown
that
they
respect
the
guidelines
and
restrictions
that
their
present
license
outlines.
Z
This
was
a
talking
point
when
the
developer
outlined
plans
for
a
resident
or
for
a
restaurant
license
premises
on
the
Block,
which
we
were
assured,
was
not
going
to
be
a
liquor
primary
for
the
obvious
reasons
above
I
believe.
If
you
look
at
the
police
and
calls
made
regularly
about
to
this
address,
you
will
see
the
flagrant
disregard
for
their
license
at
present
more
so.
This
establishment
establishment
needs
to
have
more
oversight
and
consequence
before
they
are
considered
for
a
change
in
licensing
license.
Licensing
I
appreciate
you
taking
the
time
to
consider
my
thoughts.
Z
Allow
me
to
air
our
grievances,
as
well
as
the
thoughts
of
our
residential
community
and
the
shot
and
the
surrounding
businesses.
The
concern
for
the
community
neighborhood
and
potential
and
present
goodness
that
is
thriving
in
Mount
Pleasant
is
Justified.
The
current
management
and
ownership
of
this
business
do
not
have
the
community's
best
interests
at
heart.

Hello:
everyone,
my
name,
is
Katie
reverso
and
I'm
here
to
voice
the
support
for
Mount
Pleasant
restaurant
to
receive
their
primary
liquor
license
as
a
female
in
my
40s
and
a
resident
of
the
East
Vancouver
area,
I
understand
the
importance
of
a
fun
and
safe
community
Mount
Pleasant
restaurant
is
a
fantastic
new
place
that
has
really
brought
the
community
together.
You've
really
seen
it
with
their
delicious
Wood-Fired
food
quality
service
and
a
safe
place
to
gather
this
is
most
important
to
me.
AB
I,
the
the
addition
of
the
liquor
license
will
not
only
enhance
my
dining
experience
and
add
a
little
bit
more
fun
to
Vancouver,
but
I'll
also
provide
a
safe
place
for
me
to
get
good
food
and
drink
after
midnight
in
my
neighborhood,
which
is
very,
very
important
and
not
on
Granville
Street
I
want
to
stay
within
my
my
neighborhood.
This
will
also
provide
me.
AB
Some
diversity
within
the
restaurant
scene
also
I
have
to
say
that
I
was
at
the
restaurant
on
Saturday
night
and
I'm
kind
of
surprised
to
see
what
I
heard
to
hear
what
I
had,
because
when
I
went
in
there,
the
server
actually
gave
me
one
of
those
inserts
and
said.
Please
exit
through
the
back
entrance
and
I
went
to
actually
go
to
the
front
where
the
owner
was
standing
and
told
me
that
I
need
to
go
through
and
be
quiet.
AB
So
it
was
very
interesting
to
hear
I,
don't
know
how
the
other
two
weeks
were.
I
wasn't
there
on
a
Saturday
night,
but
I
can
assure
you
that
on
Saturday
night,
I
left
about
11
35
I
exit
through
the
back
and
I
was
told
where
to
pick
up.
My
Uber
so
I
think
there's
really
something
here
where
I
can
tell
as
someone
who's
a
very
very
I
love
going
to
that
restaurant,
that
they
are
really
really
trying
to
make
a
change.
AB
So,
in
conclusion,
I
really
support
Mount
Pleasant
and
their
Pursuit
for
a
primary
liquor
license
it's
essential
for
the
growth
and
development
of
our
community
and
small
businesses.
It
will
provide
residents
like
myself
more
options
for
dining
and
socializing
after
midnight,
and
it
will
really
make
Vancouver
a
more
fun
and
diverse
city.
Thank.

My

is
Christine

and
I
am
in
support
of
the
liquor
primary
application
for
Mount
Pleasant

I've
been
in
the
restaurant
and
bar
industry
for
over
34
years
in
Gastown,
Yale
town
and
Granville

I've
ran
many

and
I've
worked
for
work
with

seen
very
good
and
not
so
good.
Operators
and
I
can
assure
you
that
Cameron
Bogue
is
a
very
good
operator.
AA
I've
known
him
for
over
15
years
for
money
opened
Daniel
Booth's
restaurant
on
4th,
Avenue
I
couldn't
be
happier
and
more
proud
of
him
when
he
opened
up
Mount
Pleasant
vintage
information.
This
has
been
as
this
lifelong
dream
and
it
gets
everything
on
the
line
to
make
this
happen
to
create
a
place
where
everyone
is
welcome.
Where
I
a
51
year
old
female,
can
come
and
feel
safe
and
be
part
of
his
family.
After
hearing
his
neighbors
earlier,
it
sounds
like
there
has
been
some
challenges,
which
is
truly
unfortunate.
AA
However,
knowing
what
I'm
know
about
Cam
he's
already
addressed
some
of
his
issues
and
he
will
continue
to
be
proactive
in
ensuring
not
only
his
guests
are
safe,
but
also
his
neighbors.
Now
cam
is
very
committed,
he's
very
dedicated
to
his
craft.
This
is
his
passion
and
his
life's
work
and
I
really
truly
urge
all
of
you
to
give
him
a
chance.
Thank
you.

Please

Thank
you,

You
know
good
evening
everyone
good
evening,
members
of
the
city,
council
and
residents
of
Mount
Pleasant.
You
know
I
just
thank
you.
First
for
providing
me
the
opportunity
to
speak,
and
you
know
in
support
of
Mount
Pleasant
vintage
and
Provisions
application
for
a
new
dual
license.
My
name
is
Craig
blies
I'm,
the
Chief
Operating
Officer
for
Earl's,
Restaurant
and
and
and
graciously
and
and
excitedly
I'm,
so
happy
that
our
head
office
is
moving.
AD
You
know
from
Gaston
currently
to
to
become
a
neighbor
of
all
of
yours
very
soon
in
in
Mount
Pleasant.
AD
So
we're
very
excited
to
be
a
part
of
that
community,
but
today
or
tonight
I
really
wanted
to
call
in
and
advocate
for
a
business
that
no
only
enriches
our
local
economy,
but
also
contributes
to
a
cultural
fabric
of
really
our
city,
and
so
this
dual
license
for
Mount,
Pleasant,
vintage
and
Provisions
will
not
only
benefit
the
establishment
itself,
but
also
create
a
positive
impact
on
our
community
as
a
whole.
AD
Until
first,
you
know
before
before
I
begin
I
just
want
to
talk
about
Cam's,
cam
books,
character
and,
and
who
he
represents.
AD
You
know
he
is
the
owner
of
Mount
Pleasant,
vintage
of
provision
and
I've
had
the
privilege
of
working
with
Cam
for
over
a
decade
at
Earl's,
restaurants
and
I
could
personally
attest
to
a
dedication
his
integrity
and
professionalism.
AD
The
cool
thing
about
cam
is
that
he
possesses
a
rare
combination
of
visit,
vacuuming
and
a
genuine
concern
for
the
well-being
of
others.
He
has
consistently
demonstrated
empathy
always
looking
for
others
and
fostering
a
strong
sense
of
community.
He
believes
in
inclusiveness
and
wants
the
best
not
only
for
his
establishment
but
truly
for
the
community
and
the
city
as
a
whole.
There
is
no
better
Steward
for
Mount
Pleasant
than
Mount
Pleasant,
vintage
and
Provisions.
AD
Tell
you
how
excited
to
move
to
Mount
Pleasant.
We
have
150
team
members
that
had
office
and
we're
looking
forward
to
being
a
part
of
this
community.
This
community
Embraces
individuality,
it
Embraces
creativity
and
Entrepreneurship,
and
we
get
to
work
and
play
in
an
Eclectic
neighborhood
of
residents
and
businesses.
AD
Independent
restaurants,
like
Mount
Pleasant
vintage
of
provision,
play
a
crucial
role
in
shaping
The
Culinary
landscape
of
our
community.
By
granting
this
dual
license,
we
help
strengthen
the
unique
character
of
our
neighborhood.
We
encourage
a
vibrant
food
culture
and
that
incorporates
both
exceptional
dining
and
responsible
liquor
service.
It
also.
AD
It
also
allows
Mount
Pleasant
to
cater
to
the
diverse
needs
of
patrons
in
Mount
Pleasant
and
be
able
to
cater
to
their
needs
in
other
areas,
and
we
can't
forget
in
the
restaurant
industry
how
devastating
the
impact
of
covid-19
has
been.
You
know.
Closure
of
businesses
during
the
lockdown
took
a
significant
toll
not
only
on
owners,
employees
and
the
community
at
Large,
but
by
supporting
Mount
Pleasant
vintage
of
Provisions.
We
have
an
opportunity
to
help
rebuild
and
strengthen
our
local
economy,
as
well
as
promote
the
resurgent
of
the
hospitality
sector.

We'll
come
back
to
them,

Great.
AE
Good
evening,
everyone,
my
name-
is
Shane
Eli
and
I'm
here
to
voice
my
full
support
for
Mount
Pleasant,
vintage
and
Provisions
to
receive
their
dual
liquor
license.
Mount
Pleasant,
vintage
Provisions
is
a
unique
place
in
Vancouver.
That
is
a
true
neighborhood
bar
and
restaurant.
That
boasts
a
staff
full
of
hospitality
veterans.
It
also.
It
is
also
owned
and
operated
by
a
community-minded
business
person
who
has
gone
gone
above
and
beyond,
to
work
with
people
in
his
neighborhood
to
maintain
their
quality
of
life,
a
little
about
Mount,
Pleasant,
vintage
and
Provisions.
AE
After
reading
the
briefing
there
are
significantly
more
people
in
support
of
the
license
extension
than
there
are
opposed
28
to
11.
Vancouver
does
get
the
moniker
no
fun
city
places
like
this
are
making
the
city
more
fun
and
culturally
relevant
and
doing
it
in
a
mature
and
responsible
way.
That's
what
Vancouver
needs
more
of
the
owner
and
operator
cam
Bogue
is
a
hospitality
industry
Legend
who
has
worked
his
entire
life
to
get
to
the
point
where
he
could
open
his
own.
AE
AE
I,
don't
see
why
adding
an
hour
to
service
changes.
This
the
bars
also
agreed
to
hire
private
security
to
monitor
patrons
leaving
the
establishment,
as
you
heard,
from
cam
they've,
also
removed.
All
speakers
on
the
front
patio
are
putting
menu
inserts
in
their
menus
handed
to
every
guest
after
9
pm,
reminding
them
to
be
quiet
and
having
them
exit
out
the
back
door.
AE
On
top
of
that,
cam
has
given
his
personal
cell
phone
number
to
all
residents
in
the
area
to
let
them
know
if
there
is
any
issues.
Parking
and
traffic
concerns
again
parking
in
the
area
being
light.
Industrial
is
abundant
at
night
again,
I,
don't
see
how
adding
an
hour
to
service
times
affect
the
parking
availability
or
cause
traffic
concerns
at
this
time
at
night,
especially
when
most
people
will
be
walking
using
public
transits
taxi
or
ride,
sharing,
which
again
cam
has
said,
will
be
moving
off
of
that
block.
AE
In
conclusion,
this
is
not
a
nightclub
being
frequented
by
19
to
25
year
olds.
It's
an
older
crowd.
Looking
for
a
good
cocktail
in
late
night
food
and
an
up-and-coming
vibrant
neighborhood
camboggan,
his
team
are
veterans
of
the
hospitality
industry
who
clearly
want
to
work
with
their
neighbors
to
ensure
a
harmonious
relationship
between
his
neighborhood
bar
and
the
residents
of
the
neighborhood
Vancouver's
mission
statement
is
to
create
a
great
city
of
communities
which
cares
about
its
people,
its
environment
and
the
ability
to
live,
work
and
prosper.
AE
Cameron's
team
at
Mount,
Pleasant,
vintage
and
Provisions
are
shining
examples
of
this.
Vancouver
should
be
supporting
small
business
owners,
especially
ones
that
are
so
willing
to
work
with
their
community
and,
as
such,
I
see
no
good
reason
to
deny
Mount
Pleasant
vintage
and
Provisions
their
license
extension.
Thank
you.

Hey,
thank
you

A
Hi
Brett,
so
you
have
up
to
five
minutes.
Please
go
ahead.
W
Thank
you.
My
name
is
Brett
Parker
and
thanks
for
allowing
me
to
speak
today,
I'm
a
local
Vancouver
resident
looking
to
voice
my
support
for
Mount
Pleasant,
vintage
and
Provisions
or
MPV
receiving
their
dual
liquor
license.
The
team
at
MPV
have
created
a
unique
and
exciting
neighborhood
bar
in
an
old
Heritage
Home
in
Mount
Pleasant
Vancouver.
W
The
space
is
welcoming
and
creative.
It
really
fits
the
arts
and
culture
mold
that
the
city
of
Vancouver
is
looking
to.
Foster
MPV
is
catering
to
an
older
cocktail:
drinking
demographic
with
exceptional
cocktails,
affordable
pricing,
great
happy
hour
and
even
an
industry
night
to
give
back
to
Vancouver's
food
and
beverage
employees
with
many
different
types
of
industry
in
the
area.
W
There's
a
need
for
both
early
morning
and
late
night
offerings
which
this
dual
license
will
allow
MPV
to
cater
to
the
MPV
staff,
have
handled
all
incidents
within
the
neighborhood,
like
the
hospitality
veterans
that
they
are,
including
holding
a
public
hearing
and
providing
a
direct
number
to
voice
any
and
all
concerns.
They
have
removed.
The
speakers
from
the
front
patio
sacrificing
Revenue
to
close
an
hour
earlier
than
the
bylaw
each
night.
U
W
They
offer
a
unique
food
and
beverage
experience
in
Mount
Pleasant
with
what
seems
to
be
an
exemplary
record
for
noise
and
nuisance
in
a
light
industrial
area
other
than
a
single
substantiated
incident
in
which
they
have
been
extremely
active
in
pursuing
to
grow
and
learn
from.
They
have
been
amazing
members
of
our
community
and
are
even
eager
to
sign
a
good
neighbor
agreement.
Excuse
me.
W
A
Hey
thanks:
Brett
next
speaker
is
Speaker
number
22
Mika.
Do
we
have
Mika
on
the
line.
A
You

Sean
Layton.
Do
we
have
Sean
on
the
line.
AF
Ahead,
thank
you.
Counselors
and
mayor
I
wish
I
could
come
I'm
literally
in
my
car,
outside
the
restaurant
I
out
of
sort
of
my
restaurant,
like
cam
I'm,
an
entrepreneur
and
a
business
owner
in
Mount,
Pleasant
I
own
Como
taparia,
which
is
close
by
and
for
for
me,
I
love,
the
restaurant
Cam's,
a
friend
and
colleague,
we've
worked
collectively
together
for
a
long
time,
I've
always
respect
him
and
his
business
and
as
a
freaking
customer
of
Mount
Pleasant
vintage
I've
only
ever
seen
a
very
professional
run
business.
AF
It
was
nothing
like
a
nightclub,
it's
a
restaurant
and
it's
they
do
great
job.
Their
wood.
Fire
grill
is
very
unique.
I
believe
there's
only
three
in
the
province.
I
might
be
wrong,
but
that's
something
that
you
know
makes
me
want
to
go
and
makes
me
want
to
talk
about
it.
But,
most
importantly
for
this
license.
You
know:
I
have
25
to
30
staff
every
night
and
a
lot
of
them
work
really
long
days
and
a
lot
of
them
live
in
Mount,
Pleasant
or
farther
east,
and
they
need
someone
to
go
after
work.
AF
You
know,
and
we
close
at
11.-
and
you
know
a
lot
of
them
get
out
of
there.
12
12
30
and
there's
not
a
lot
of
options.
They
definitely
don't
want
to
go
down
to
the
Granville
strip
or
down
to
the
east
side
might
not
be
safe
and
it
might
not
be
in
their
Direction
and
when
they
do
get
off
there
isn't
a
lot
of
options
and
definitely
there's
not
options
for
food.
So
this
is
something
to
me
like
personally
I'm,
the
one
that
stays
up
that
late.
AF
AF
That's
going
to
have
to
listen
to
people
exiting
a
restaurant,
us
included
or
at
the
bottom
of
a
tower
on
Main
and
7th,
but,
like
I
said
we
do
close
at
11
and
they're
always
going
to
have
bad
apples,
but
it
sounds
like
Cam's
doing
a
great
job
of
mitigating
the
complaints
and
I
couldn't
think
of
a
better
area
for
something
like
this,
because
I
do
believe.
AF
These
licenses
need
to
go
to
other
parts
of
the
city
they're
all
on
Grandma
Street
like
no
one's
going
there
and
no
one
wants
to
go
there
after
you
get
off
work.
There
is
a
thing
they
know,
there's
nightclubs
and
things
like
that.
But
you
know
if
you
get
off
work
and
you
just
cooked
for
12
hours,
you
just
want
to
go,
have
a
beer
and
a
hamburger
or
something
like
that
at
12
30,
you
don't
have
those
options
in
Mount
Pleasant.
AF
You
know,
there's
a
couple
places,
but
there's
not
a
ton
so
going
into
that
neighborhood
I,
don't
I,
really
don't
see
what
the
what
the
problem
would
be.
I
think
it's
a
great
addition
to
the
neighborhood
and
I
do
feel
like
the
team.
Cam
and
his
crew
are
doing
a
great
job
to
try
and
you
know,
meet
the
neighbors
halfway.
AF
The
things
like
the
Uber
as
well
as
exiting
out
the
back.
That
seems
like
they're,
going
above
and
beyond
and
I
feel
like
they'll.
Probably
continue
to
do
so
so
I
am
in
full
support
for
Mount
Pleasant
vintage.
Thank
you.
A
Okay,
thanks
John,
thanks
for
calling
in
thanks
okay,
so
we
are
now
just
going
to
go
back
through
the
list
of
speakers
that
we
didn't
that
weren't
available
earlier
speaker
number
17.
Do
we
have
Ray
Liang
on
the
line.
A
Thank
you.
How
about
speaker
20,
mark
bladdock.
A
J
Appreciate
everybody
coming
to
speak
today
and
I
want
to
address
the
the
neighbors
specifically
because
I
I
get
your
concerns
and
we
and
we
heard
them-
you
know,
I've
I've
once
lived
in
a
similar
sort
of
situation
in
a
kind
of
a
house
in
an
industrial
area
where
we
weren't
used
to
we,
we
had
a
nice
quiet
Zone
because
there
wasn't
anything
going
on
in
the
evening,
but
this
area
is
zoned
industrial.
This
is
a
a
kind
of
a
valid
use
in
this
area
and
things
change.
J
Unfortunately-
and
you
know,
I
I
get
that
change
can
be
difficult,
and
this
is
going
to
impact
your
neighbors
and
you,
but
I
also
recognize
that
the
you
know
this
is
a
legitimate
dual
licensing
is
a
is
an
appropriate
kind
of
offering
that
the
province
has
given
us
and
I
do
believe
that,
with
conditions
that
we
apply
as
the
city
and
through
our
licensing
department,
that
there
will
be
the
proper
checks
and
balances.
J
I
do
think
that
the
operator
has
been
kind
of
sort
of
notice
on
this
and
and
Sir
you're
going
to
have
to
really
come
correct
because
we
will
be
looking
at
this
and
and
and
I
know,
that
our
staff
are
going
to
be
doing.
Reviews
of
your
your
project
to
make
sure
that
it
is
sort
of
compliant
and
that
you're
not
unduly
disturbing
the
neighbors
and
I.
Do
think
that
you
know
at
face
value.
J
What
you're,
you're
promising
and
committing
to
do
to
us
here
is
carries
a
lot
of
weight
and
a
responsibility
and
and
I
recognize
as
well.
That
you've
invested
a
lot
in
this
in
this
restaurant
and
you
went
with
a
location
that
was
outright
zone
for
this
kind
of
use
and
you're
going
by
the
rules
and
and
I
do
you
know
I
do
want
to
come
back
to
the
there.
J
Was
that
one
comment
about
the
red
Solo
cups
in
the
side
yard
and
that
you
don't
serve
and
I
guess
that
is
sort
of
the
unfortunate
reality
when
you're
kind
of
a
lightning
rod
for
the
controversy,
and
in
that
case,
obviously
it
wasn't
your
product.
It
was
somebody
else's
causing
that
mess
and
I'm
not
saying
that
you're
not
absolved
of
any
guilt
in
the
in
the
nuisance,
that
the
neighbors
are
reporting
and
I
and
I
trust
that
you're
going
to
move
forward
on
it.
J
But
I
I
will
support
this
dual
license:
application
based
on
the
the
mutual
trust
and
the
expectation
that
you're
going
to
do
right
by
your
neighbors
and
that
open
communication
and
the
Good
Neighbor
kind
of
agreement
work
that
we
hope
to
see.
That's
me
past.
The
mic.
M
Yeah
thanks
chair
I've,
been
listening
intently
to
the
conversation
and
I
was
concerned
when
we
received
some
video
and
some
communication
from
some
of
the
residents
and
I
wear
dual
hats
as
I
think
we
often
all
do
as
counselors
in
terms
of
being
responsive
to
all
the
residents
in
the
city
of
Vancouver,
but
also
wanting
to
create
a
vibrant
and
a
fun
city
and
an
environment
where
a
small
business
can
Thrive
and
prosper.
It
is
a
growing
city.
Neighborhoods
are
changing,
particularly
down
here
in
this
area.
M
In
Mount
Pleasant
we've
got
the
Broadway
plan.
Development
got
a
lot
of
that
sort
of
creative,
Hub
and
inspiration,
and
a
lot
of
those
businesses
are
changing
and
you're,
starting
to
see
obviously
more
intensification
of
land
uses,
because
and
so
as
we
do,
that
we're
going
to
go
through
some
growing
pains
in
terms
of
different
uses
existing
in
different
sort
of
in
within
the
same
zones
in
the
same
areas.
M
It
was
also
frustrating
if
you
were
a
resident
and
you
were
experiencing
some
of
that,
and
you
know,
council
is
doing
its
best
to
be
objective
and
parse
through,
what's
related
to
the
restaurant,
what
was
related
to
other
factors,
but
we
do
have
sort
of
the
components
of
a
good
neighbor
agreement
which
Council
takes
fairly
seriously
in
terms
of
looking
at
those
and
there's
also
I
have
seen
times
here
where
there
have
been
cases
that
have
come
back
to
council
and
if
you
have
somebody
that
doesn't
deliver
on
those
expectations,
then
licenses
are
not
necessarily
given
in
perpetuity.
M
Those
issues
and
business
licenses
can
be
revoked,
so
I
think
it's
incumbent
on
everybody
to
be
sort
of
in
good
faith,
to
sort
of
be
good
actors
and
move
this
forward.
I
followed
this
project
for
a
while,
because
I
was
aware
the
developer.
That's
behind
this
one
is
one:
that's
done
some
interesting
things
in
terms
of
intensifying
industrial
land
use,
and
it
was
a
really
intriguing,
unique
to
see
the
retention
of
sort
of
the
Heritage
piece
attached
to
it,
and
I've
actually
been
wanting
to
go
down
and
see
it
for
a
while.
M
So
it's
interesting
to
be
having
this
conversation,
I
haven't
done
that
I
do
aspire
to
do
that.
Actually,
if
I
get
out
of
this
Council
chamber
at
some
point,
but
I
think
that
we
do
want
what
we're
aspiring
to
the
city
of
Vancouver
is
diverse,
complete
communities
where
people
could
not
just
live
and
they
can
work,
but
they
can
also
have
fun,
and
there
are
things
to
do
and
I
think
that
means
that
we
also
need
to
be
respectful
and
find
out
ways
for
those
pieces
to
live
alongside
so
I.
M
Think
at
this
point,
we're
talking
about
a
licensing
change,
we're
not
necessarily
talking
about
whether
or
not
this
particular
business
deserves
to
operate
we're.
Actually,
the
decision
for
the
council
tonight
is
around
this
dual
licensing
piece,
which
we
need
to
look
at
and
say:
is
it
Equitable
that
we
would
withhold
it
from
one
business
when
it's
something
that's
available
for
the
most
part,
too?
M
So
I
have
full
expectations
that
the
operator
is
going
to
do
their
best
to
deliver
it
I'm
hopeful
that
the
neighbors
will
come
to
see
this
to
be
a
good
addition
to
their
neighborhood
and
somewhere
that
they
like
to
enjoy,
and
they
can
kind
of
call
their
local
and
I
have
no
doubt
that
Council
will
hear
if
there's
any
ongoing
challenges
and
we'll
be
receptive
to
listening
to
it
at
that
time.
But
I
think
we
deserve
to
kind
of
give
this
one
a
shot
it
there.
We
do
need
some
additional
services
in.
AC
M
Neighborhood,
most
of
it
falls
on
the
north
side
of
six
towards
Olympic
Village,
and
you
don't
see
much
sort
of
on
that
that
other
side
there,
this
Fuso
to
pop-up,
breweries
and
other
spots,
but
it
certainly
provides
I,
think
a
different
experience
and
is
available
currently.
M
So
all
that
said,
I'm
reflecting
some
of
the
same
sentiments
as
counselor
Frye,
but
really
hearing
the
neighbors
that
they're
gonna
sort
of
put
any
concerns
forward
in
good
faith,
provide
they
operate
the
benefit
of
the
doubt
and
the
operator
is
going
to
do
their
best
to
address
them.
So
I
will
support
it.
Thanks.
F
Yeah
thanks
chair
I'm
I'm,
one
of
the
new
guys
in
this
chamber,
and
one
of
the
things
I
have
to
remind
myself.
Sometimes
is
you
know
what
we're
being
asked
to
do
here
and
it's
to
consider
a
dual
license
in
an
industrial
Zone?
In
this
specific
case
before
I
came
to
council,
I
was
28
years
with
the
VPD
and
I
can
tell
you,
there's
nothing
more
frustrating
than
dealing
with
a
restaurant
or
bar
or
pub
with
an
owner
that
is
difficult
to
deal
with
and
I.
F
Don't
see
that
here,
I
don't
know.
Cam
I've
never
met
you
before,
but
you
seem
to
have
good
answers
to
a
lot
of
the
questions
and
concerns
that
I
had
I'm,
hoping
that
as
time
goes
on,
you
and
your
neighbors
will
be
able
to
communicate
a
little
bit
better.
There's.
No
doubt
this
is
a
new
business.
F
There's
going
to
be
some
Growing,
Pains
I
know
if
I
lived
in
this
neighborhood
I
probably
wouldn't
be
too
happy
with
with
noise
at
you
know
midnight
one
in
the
morning,
but
I
also
know
that
it's
in
Cam's
best
interest
he's
got
a
a
huge
financial
investment
here
that
he
obviously
doesn't
want
to
lose
it's
in
his
best
interest
to
make
this
work
and
to
make
it
work
with
his
neighbors,
and
this
is
conditional
on
a
good
neighbor
agreement.
F
Noise
requirements,
acoustical
reports-
so
you
know
I've
I've,
heard
the
concerns,
but
based
on
what
I
see
here,
the
report
and
and
all
the
speakers
I'm
gonna,
be
in
support
of
the
Dual
license
at
this
point.
Thank
you.
Thank.
A
You
councilor
Classen.
G
Thanks
very
much
chair
and
I'm
sort
of
in
the
same
points
to
make
here
is
councilor
Montague
and
it's
that
our
job
here
is
to
really
address
the
licensing,
but,
as
somebody
who's
been
a
strong
Community,
Advocate
and
and
had
to
dial
9-1-1
on
a
few
occasions
because
of
either
sort
of
Rowdy
Behavior,
that's
in
the
community
or
something
like
that.
I
fully
understand
and
appreciate
how
frustrating
that
must
be.
But
I
do
feel
like.
This
is
a
point
in
time.
G
I'm
listening
and
I
hear
an
experienced
and
and
I
think,
potentially
a
person
who
exhibits
being
a
responsible
owner
trying
to
start
a
new
business
and
I'm,
hoping
that
the
that
there
are
bridges
built
in
some
Goodwill
can
can
be
found
here.
G
I
also
feel
like
I'm
hearing
a
little
bit
from
the
surroundings
that
there
might
be
other
mitigating
factors,
so
I,
not
just
the
the
premises
itself,
so
I
will
be
supporting
the
change
in
license,
but
I
think
I
really
do
hope
that
that
more
work
continues
to
try
and
build
good
relations
with
the
community
and
I
think
some
of
the
measures
that
have
been
put
in
place
in
the
last
several
weeks
regarding
you
know
where
people
should
exit
pick
up
an
Uber
where
they
smoke.
G
What
have
you
we'll
we'll
go
a
long
way
to
trying
to
mitigate
some
of
the
things
that
happened
at
the
early
part
of
the
start
of
this
business
and
I'm?
Also
hearing
that
the
providers
is
is
probably
learned
a
lot
from
this
experience
as
well,
so
with
that,
because
this
license
does
have
conditions
attached
to
it,
I
will
be
supporting
it.
Thank
you.
C
I
think
my
colleagues
said
a
lot
so
I'm
gonna
keep
my
my
my
speech
very
quick,
so
I
think
yeah
again,
I
think
I
like
to
support
this
deal,
licensing
application,
because
you
know
first
I
checked
your
Google
reviews
very
good
review
on
the
by
the
by
the
people
over
there.
C
So
I
really
believe
this
is
going
to
be
a
very
good
addition
and
a
very
good
asset
to
the
neighborhood
and
also
the
you
I
think
I
asked
the
question
regarding
your
future
strategy
and
commitment
in
engaging
the
community,
and
you
said
that
loud
and
clear,
so
you're
gonna
filter
put
your
you
know
you
can
put
your
effort
in
the
in
the
future,
engage
in
the
community,
so
I
really
like
to
give
this
small
business,
which
is
really
essential
to
our
local
economy
in
Vancouver.
C
Give
this
small
business
business
opportunity
for
continual
Thrive,
continued
development
and
also
I
really
believe
this
Good
Neighbor
agreement.
So
it's
a
really
good
program,
so
I'm
really
glad
you're
going
to
be
signing
this
agreement
with
with
the
city.
So
with
all
that,
yes,
I'm
gonna
support
this
application.
Thanks.

so
we
will
now
hear
from
registered

Speaker
number

we

Mika
on

A
R
A

A
A
So
Council
we

Are

any

Oh
yeah,
counselor,
Kirby,
young
I,.
A
I,
don't
believe,
oh
I,
guess
there
are
speakers
for
this.
Aren't
there.
A
M
I
appreciate
that,
but
I'm
reading,
the
middle
of
the
room
and
I
do
believe
it's
been
council's
purview
to
move
to
wave
speakers
and
Council
can
vote
accordingly.
But
I'd
like
to
move
to
wave
speakers.
A
So
we
do
need
a
motion
to
wave
speakers.
Council,
Kirby,
Young,
yeah,.
M
Yes,
I'd
like
to
move
to
suspend
the
procedure
by
law
and
wave
hearing
speakers,
so
we
can
proceed
directly
to
debate.
Okay,.
A
A
Thanks
counselor,
we
shall
shall
do
that.
A
Okay,
see
no
discussion
I'm
now
going
to
call
the
vote
so
clerk.
If
you
could,
please
take
us
to
the
voting
screen
and
counsel.
If
you
could
please
register
your
vote
on
the
voting

A

dominato

Belize,

Boyle

And
that
concludes
the

Thank

A
Okay,
the
11th
item
on
the
agenda
is
23
West,
Cordova,
Street,
1220123,
BC,
Limited,
Blood,
Alley,
Music,
Hall
event,
driven
liquor
primary
license
application.
Does
any
member
wish
to
declare
a
conflict
on
this
item.
A
Okay,
so
I'd
like
to
counsel
you
have
up
to
five
minutes
to
ask
questions
of
of
team
members.
So
are
there
any
questions.
A
Casey
no
questions.
We
do
have
one
speaker
for
this
Council
Kirby
Young.
M
Yeah
I
just
wanted
to
ask
a
quick
question
of
our
chief
licensed
Spectra,
and
that
is
how
unique
is
this
specific
application.
K
Great
question:
I:
it's
a
fairly
unique
application
in
that
it
is
two
stories
below
grade
and
it
is
going
to
be
an
event
driven
license.
So
for
a
cultural,
cultural
arts
and
culture
live
performance
related
venue,
there
aren't
very
many
assembly
uses
below
grade
in
the
city.
M
Thank
you
and
then
just
a
quick
follow-up
on
that
when
the
license
department
is
looking
at
this.
Are
you
considering
the
linkage
into
other
City
policies
such
as
the
dramatic
shortage
of
live
performance,
value
venues
and
the
loss
of
Music
Space,
and
can
you
speak
about
the
need
for
that
in
the
city
yeah.
K
Absolutely
we,
when
we
receive
applications
for
for
venues
such
as
this,
we
work
with
our
colleagues
in
our
in
arts
and
culture
and
Community
Services,
to
see
if
it
does
further
those
kinds
of
policies
to
make
sure
that
we're
making
moves
in
the
right
direction.
And
they
have
let
staff
know
that
they
do
support,
because
it
does
create
that
space.
A
You
okay,
so
we
do
have
one
registered
speaker
for
this
item
and
they
sorry
one
sec
here.
So
we'll
now
hear
from
them.
It's
speaker
number
one
Bert,
Hicks
or
Burt
heck.
L
Thank
you,
I'm
not
going
to
take
much
of
time.
I'll
just
be
here
for
questions.
The
report
speaks
for
itself.
One
thing
I
was
going
to
clarify.
Sarah,
Hicks
and
I
are
not
related,
but
the
this
is
an
interesting
development.
You,
some
of
you
probably
remember
the
old
23,
West,
Cordova,
Street
nightclub
and
it
went
downhill
and
it
was
a
very
depressed
area
for
quite
a
few
years.
L
So
what
West
Bank
has
done
is
built
a
10-story
multi-use
building
which
will
have
142
units
housing
units,
80,
social
and
62,
but
two
grades
below
will
be
this
music
hall,
which
would
be
event
driven
and
part
of
the
reason
they're
doing
this
is
Ian,
Gillespie
loves,
music,
and
so
that
will
be
a
destination.
The
city
doesn't
have
a
lot
of
music
Halls
destinations
about
this
size,
so
it'll
be
below
grade.
L
One
question
that
came
up
earlier
when
we
were
did
the
neighborhood
notification
for
security,
but
these
will
be
eyes
and
ears
on
the
street
and
they,
the
security
staff,
will
be
there
two
during
the
two
during
night
and
three
during
the
day,
eyes
and
ears
roaming,
the
streets
and
also
doing
litter,
Patrol
and
cleaning
up
the
area
so
that
I'll
just
stand
by
for
any
questions.
M
Yeah
hi
thanks
I
do
have
one
question
and
that
was
really
around
just
it's.
This
is
a
helpful
opportunity
for
Council
to
get
feedback
around
the
preventing
process,
and
this
venue
is
unique.
So
did
you
find
that
the
existing
City
process
supported
that
or
was
it
more
challenging
because
I
can't
hear
you
I
said?
Did
you
find?
M
Is
that
better
I
know
that
this
is
an
opportunity
for
Council
to
hear
feedback
when
people
are
going
through
the
process,
because
this
venue
is
unique,
did
you
find
that
it
went
smoothly
with
the
city
process,
or
did
you
find
that
the
process
didn't
really
fit
because
of
this
type
of
venue?
Well,.
L
The
yeah,
the
process
we
went
through
engagement
as
Sarah
might
want
to
speak
to
this
as
well.
There
was
some
concern
expressments
of
the
people
down
there,
because
the
place
has
been
derelict
for
several
years
and
it's
been
quite
a
few
years
in
construction
phase
to
get
this
building
built,
and
so
there
was
a
concern
mainly
around
security
and
safety
in
the
streets.
But
we
think
that
this
will
enhance
the
air
by
having
more
residents
down
there
in
the
in
the
housing
plus
also
having
this
venue.
M
L
This
one
was
an
exception
because
it's
an
event
driven
venue
which
is
allowed
down
there
event.
If
you
can
do
an
event
driven
venue
anywhere,
like
you,
do
an
event
driven
venue
in
the
Granville
Street
Entertainment,
the
street
Gas
Town
Chinatown,
because
it's
event
driven
you
and
I-
won't
be
able
to
go
down
there
tonight
and
have
dinner,
for
example,
on
have
a
burger
or
a
beer.
M
A
Thanks
councilor
Kirby
young.
Oh
sorry,.
A
You
know
what
that's
my
I
made
an
error.
We
actually
have
two
speakers
that
withdrew
so
that
completes
the
speaker's
list
and
thanks
to
everyone
for
speaking
to
council,
one
speaker
was
true
and
the
third
speaker
is
not
available
on
the
line.
More
specifically.
So
thanks
everyone
to
speaking
for
Counsel
on
this
item,
councilor
Kirby
young,
you
moved

been
quite
affected
by
this
situation,
she's
Mobility
impaired
and
she
couldn't
get
here
simple.
As
that
she's.
Given
me
some
notes
and
since
I
obviously
agree
with
position
she
was
taking
anyway.
AG
The
particular
water
feature,
of
course,
that
she's
interested
in
is
the
the
Butte
Street
Fountain,
but
there
are
others
in
the
west
and
and
elsewhere
that
are
affected
by
this.
AG
AG
Now
I
live
on
the
West
End
too,
and
there
are
two
particular
ones,
one
in
Barclay,
Heritage
Square
and
the
other
one
down
on
Beach
Street
with
Beach
Avenue,
which
is
the
the
Davis
Family,
provided
it
and
that's
what
gets
to
my
sort
of
second
point-
and
that's
what's
really
drawn
me
into
all
this.
AG
These
are
Centennial
projects,
those
two
Butte
Street
isn't,
but
there
are
others.
The
peace
fountain,
for
instance,
in
on
Broad
Street,
is
another
one
that
has
been
ceased
and
as.
AG
Counselor
Klassen
also
remembers
the
whole
question
about
the
disrespect.
The
ignoring
the
the
failure
to
maintain
Centennial
features
is
a
thing
which
has
been
of
concern
for
a
while
and
I've
tried
to
stir
things
up,
but
got
no
traction,
but
it
really
ties
into
what
we're
dealing
with
here
on
these
water
features.
I
doubt
that
anyone
who
threw
the
switch
has
recognized
that
we
are
dealing
with
Centennial
features
which
should
have
been
maintained
and
are
now
turning
themselves
into
compost
heaps
because
they're
not
being
cleaned
up
so
I'm
here
to
remind
that.
AG
These
features
are
a
significance
and
to
hope
that
your
initiative
in
bringing
forward
this
resolution
will
help
us
to
get
these
features.
AG
Those
that
need
a
switch
to
recirculation,
get
them
back
in
operation
if
for
one
season
before
they
can
make
the
switch
I
think
we
can
survive
this.
AG
It's
it
just
seems
strange
to
me
that
someone
somewhere
just
threw
a
switch,
and
incidentally,
some
of
the
features
already
do
one.
Why
there's
one
feature
in
particular?
That
is
a
recirculating
feature
that
was
switched
off
until
I
pointed
the
fact.
The
fact
point
out
the
fact
that
it
was
recirculating
there's
some
there's,
no,
no
thought
being
going
into
this.
Please
pass
this
motion.
Thank
you.
A
Thanks
Anthony,
you
do
have
questions
yes
from
councilor
Classen.
G
Thank
you,
chair,
hi,
Anthony,
so
nice
to
see
you
and,
and
thank
you
for
being
a
steward
of
a
lot
of
these
important
reminders
of
of
the
history
of
our
city.
Very
simple
question:
do
do
these
water
features,
which
I
think
have
been
turned
off
for
I?
Think
for
with
with
good
intention
around
the
concerns
around
water
usage.
Do
you
think
that
there
is
a
should
we
get
into
a
like
a
stage
two
or
a
stage?
G
Three,
obviously,
which
would
be
very
serious
in
terms
of
waters?
Was
that
something
where
and
I
realized
that
the
one
you
mentioned,
the
one
was
recirculating,
but
the
ones
that
are
not
recirculating
at
this
time?
Would
that
be
just
the
a
compromise
that
we
can
make
that
we
could?
We
could
perhaps
turn
them
off
later
on
if
we
get
into
concerns
around
rope.
AG
Oh
yeah,
very
simply
I
mean
that's
I,
think
and
I
think
that's
part
of
the
resolution,
in
fact
that
yeah,
if
we
get
into
trouble,
let's
just
search
it
off
yeah
but
when
you
I
mean
I,
noticed
the
amount
of
of
power
washing
and
stuff
that
goes
on
and
I
think
how
much
water's
going
down
the
tubes
on
power
washing
of
of
the
parks
where
some
of
these
are
situated
and
I
think
I.
Think
that's
a
disconnect
here.
G
And
I
know
how
I
feel
about
them,
but
what
how
would
you
describe
the
value
of
having
these
water
features
in
any
part
of
our
city,
but
particularly
in
the
in
the
West
End.
AG
Well,
I
I
think
it
I
think
it
varies
by
feature
in
the
case
of
Butte
that
that
one
is
a
very
powerful
Community
draw
I
I'm
there,
quite
often
myself,
Charlotte
just
across
the
street
from
it
and
Harry
Potter
park
is
very
important.
It's
had
a
psychological
effect
on
them.
AG
The
Davis,
oh
Davis,
one
on
Beach
Avenue,
not
so
much
Barclay,
Heritage
Square,
that's
quite
a
draw,
because
in
that
middle
of
that
Park,
it's
there
are
people
around
it,
they're
not
around
it
as
much
as
they
used
to
be,
and
it's
it's
in
rather
sorry
shape.
It's
lost,
it's
lost
the
pineapple
it
had
on
top.
AG
So
it's
it's
really
feature
by
feature.
They've
each
got
a
local
characteristic,
a
local
effect
thanks.
A
Very
much
Anthony
thanks
Anthony
I
have
some
questions
for
you
as
well.
I
I,
assume
I
need
to
relinquish
relinquish
the
chair
for
questions
or
no
nope.
Okay,
I!
Don't
need
to
thank
you.
So
Anthony
you're
telling
me
about
I
understand
that
in
2021
you
were
able
to
get
the
fountain
back
on
for
the
summer.
Is
that
correct?
AG
I
wasn't
really
involved
in
that
partic
in
that
I
hadn't
been
become
involved
by
then
that
was
really
more
Charlotte
and
the
the
gang
around
her
okay,
if
I
can
put
it
that
way,
I
got
drawn
in
somewhat
later.
AG
A
You
mentioned
one
of
the
fountains
that
had
been
shut
off,
but
was
actually
recirculating,
which
Fountain
was
that.
AG
In
Nelson
Park
there's
a
water
water
feature
in
the
south
west
corner
and
I
happen
to
know
the
guy
who
designed
it
and
if
they're,
a
good
friend
of
mine-
and
he
said,
that's
a
recirculating
feature
so
I
raised
that
I
think
I
got
that
into
the
into
Vancouver
Sun
and
someone
I
guess
must
have
been
reading
it
because
it's
on
now
now.
A
Switched
on,
can
you
talk
a
little
bit
more
about
you
said:
there's
been
a
psychological
impact
on
the
residents
of
the
herald,
Park
Center.
Can
you
talk
a
little
bit
more
about
that?
The
significance
of
it
to
that
Community
because
I
know
there's
limited
Mobility.
They
can't
necessarily
travel
very
far.
Can
you
tell
me
a
little
bit
about
that
impact?
Yes,.
AG
They
had
they
organized
quite
a
a
sort
of
media
event
if
I
can
put
it
that
way
and
which
I,
attended
and
I
was
listening
to
the
number
of
people
from
Harrow
Park,
for
whom
this
was
their
sort
of
Waterside
lung.
If
I
could
put
it
that
way,
very
easy
for
them
to
reach
with
their
walkers
and
and
other
assistants,
and
they
would
talk
about
how
it
had
drawn
the
birds,
how
it
how
it
drew
the
children
around
and
they
liked
the
sound
of
the
water.
AG
They
talked
about
things
like
this,
how
important
it
was
to
them
in
their
some
of
them
terribly
limited,
physically
lives,
and
they
really
impressed
upon
me.
The
fact
that
this
was
was
a
lot
more
than
just
the
feature
it
contributed
to
the
well-being
of
the
people
who
were
there.
AG
A
Thank
you
speaker
number
two.
A
Just
noting
that
for
the
record,
so
that
is
the
end
of
our
speakers
list
and
thanks
Anthony
for
coming
to
speak
today
on
behalf
of
Charlotte
as
well
council.
Is
there
any
discussion,
counselor
Montague.
F
Yeah
sure
thanks
I'll
be
brief.
Here
you
know
to
some
I
think
on
the
surface,
this
seems
like
a
minor
issue,
but
to
many
many
of
those
are
seniors
in
our
community.
These
features
are
very
important
and
it's
just
one
more
thing:
that's
kind
of
sucking
the
joy
out
of
our
city.
This
is
a
problem
that
can
be
solved.
So,
let's
turn
these
features
back
on
and
find
ways
that
they
can
be
retrofitted
to
keep
them
on
I'm
wholeheartedly.
F
In
support
of
this
motion
that
you
brought
forward-
and
those
are
my
comments-
hey.
G
In
a
similar
vein,
I'm
I'm
just
going
to
respond
largely
about
what
we've
done
with
our
fountains,
whether
it
be
the
the
sort
of
the
splash
that
we
experience
when
you're
at
the
top
of
Queen
Elizabeth
Park
or
the
fountain
near
Harrow
park.
There
are
so
many
water
features
that
we've
turned
off
and
again
I
think
with
good
intention
in
mind,
but
I
think
we
have
to
first
of
all
have
a
sense
of
scale
in
terms
of
the
amount
of
water
circulating
through
them,
even
the
ones
that
are
not
recirculating.
G
At
this
time.
We
are
in
some
ways,
I
feel
like
we're.
Trying
to
again
I
I
understand
the
intention
of
what
we're
trying
to
do
with
this,
but
I
feel
like
we're
moving
into
a
world
that
is
so
austere
that
takes
away
these
community
and
urban
features.
G
That
I
think
bring
a
lot
of
joy
to
a
lot
of
people
and
and
people
point
out
that
during
warm
days
just
to
spray
and
just
the
sound
of
the
water
splashing
is
is
in
in
the
visual
and
some
of
our
related
and,
of
course,
there's
the
great
big
fountain.
That
would
spray
and
at
lost
Lagoon
and
other
places
as
well,
and
then
you
know,
we've
even
had
a
lot
of
discussion
about
kids,
spray
parks
and
so
on.
I
I
think
we,
you
know
again.
G
We
need
to
take
measures
that
that
are
conservation
focused,
but
to
shut
off
the
tap.
So
literally
on
these
things
before
giving
the
public
a
chance
to
have
some
time
with
them
is,
it's
I
think
was
wrong
and
I
think
it
was.
It
was
a
bit
of
an
overreaction
to
to
the
concerns.
Now
again,
if
we
do
get
into
severe
water
restriction,
there
are
lots
of
things
we've
done.
We
do
an
enormous
amount
of
communication
to
get
homeowners
to
to
restrict
the
use
of
their
water,
I.
G
Think
we've
as
a
society
we've
started
to
you
know,
move
into
devices
that
are
reducing
the
overall
use
of
water,
but
these
these
places
where
we
can
have
are
really
more
Collective
features
of
our
community
and
and
they're
for
all
of
us
to
share
and
again
had
we
built
them
today,
rather
than
in
the
past,
we
would
have
had
more
recirculating,
but
let's,
let's
invest
in
the
future
by
doing
that,
but
not
by
turning
everything
off
and
deciding
that
we
can
no
longer
enjoy
them,
as
we
have
so
I'm
I'm,
very
thankful,
councilor
Meisner
for
bringing
this
on
I
think
it
strikes
a
larger
conversation
again.
A
Councilor
Clawson
I'm
going
to
relinquish
relinquish
the
chair
to
you,
so
thanks
Anthony
for
coming
in
and
your
comments
and
also
to
all
the
people
that
I
heard
from
on
social
media
via
email
who
are
looking
forward
to
possibly
seeing
these
fountains
flowing
again.
This
is
well
you
know
this.
A
This
cement
or
this
motion
is,
is
sensitive
to
the
fact
that
water
conservation
is
important
and
that
we
will
still
be
working
towards
retrofitting
these
fountains
to
be
recirculating,
but
in
the
meantime
I
don't
think
we
can
go
another
summer
without
some
of
these
water
features
being
turned
on.
You
mentioned
that
some
of
them
were
Anthony,
or
speaker
mentioned,
that
some
of
them
were
built
for
the
Centennial.
Many
of
them
have
significance
to
different
communities
around
the
city.
A
We
have,
of
course,
the
herald
Park,
a
senior
center,
a
long-term
care
center
with
people
with
limited
mobility
issues
and
this
being
their
social
space.
That's
close
by
that
they
can
get
to
to
connect
with
the
community
to
get
some
respite
to
enjoy
the
sound
of
the
water
that
that
that's
something
that
they
really
miss
dearly
and
also
I
heard
from
many
younger
people
in
the
West
End
that
just
miss
having
these
water
features
in
in
Parks
parks
that
were
really
designed
lined
around
these
water
features.
A
They
were
a
central
part
of
the
the
design
we
also
have
water
features
in
Queen,
Elizabeth
Park,
for
example,
there's
a
waterfall
with
significance
to
the
Jewish
Community.
We
have
more
water
water
features
that
are
more
plant
oriented
and
I've
been
hearing
that
some
of
those
have
actually
been
clogging
up
with
different
plants
and
species
in
the
absence
of
the
flowing
water.
So
I
just
really
want
to
see
us
see
what
we
can
do
in
terms
of
some
bylaw
exemptions
to
get
some
of
these
significant.
A
These
water
features
with
significant
public
benefit
for
well-being,
in
line
with
our
healthy
City
strategy
flowing
again
for
the
summer,
and
if
we
do
have
a
severe
drought,
then
we
will
turn
them
off,
but
this
is
really
meant
to
strike
that
balance
between
water
conservation,
the
environment,
but
also
people's
mental
health,
well-being
and
enjoyment.
Other
communities,
so
thank
you
and
I
will
take
the
chair
back
counselor,
Kirby,
Young.
M
Thanks
chair,
yeah,
I,
think
back
to
the
time
when
I
was
first
elected
and
I
served
on
the
Vancouver
Park
Board
I
learned
a
lot
about
water
features
and
as
we're
going
through
Park
design
and
doing
consultations
with
the
neighborhood
and
water
features
overwhelmingly
rated
incredibly
highly
by
people,
and
our
staff
had
also
brought
forward
a
number
of
studies
that
really
spoke
to
the
power.
M
Sorry
that
really
spoke
to
the
power
of
those
water
features
on
Mental,
Health
and
Wellness.
They
provide
cooling,
which
is
becoming
incredibly
important
as
we
have
increased
temperatures
heat
domes.
We
see
in
the
summer
habitat
for
Birds
their
natural
gathering
places
they
they
sort
of
calm
people
and
I
think
when
we're
living
increasingly
dense
and
urbanized
environment.
These
are
places
that
provide
those
kind
of
Quiet,
Moments
and
moments
of
respite.
M
Without
an
actual
plan
in
place
to
replace
them-
and
the
result
has
been
that
we've
just
been
taking
things
away
from
people
and
I
think
that
that's
unfortunate,
that's
the
takeaway
and
it
also
sort
of
shows
I
think
perhaps
a
little
bit
more
thoughtfulness
in
the
application,
because
when
you
hear
the
story
about
the
one
water
feature,
that's
recirculating
that
was
redesigned
that
way,
as
opposed
to
somebody
just
thought.
M
Oh,
we
should
turn
them
all
off,
because
they're
losing
water,
so
I
think
that's,
probably
a
good
takeaway
lesson
to
look
at
there
and
I
think
this
motion
was
thoughtful.
That
didn't
say
turn
them
all
back
on.
It
said,
look
at
select
water
features
that
can
make
that
difference,
and
so
I
think
that's
what
we're
doing
here.
I
hope
that
one
of
the
takeaways
is
that
we
actually
do
get
some
definitive
information
back
on
what
it
will
take
to
reconstitute
some
of
those
water
features.
M
I
also
learned
when
I
was
on
the
part
board
how
expensive
things
can
be,
and
one
of
the
things
we
heard
all
the
times.
We
don't
have
enough
drinking
fountains
in
the
city
and
we
need
more
of
those,
and
people
wanted
to
evolve
those
so
that
you
could.
You
know
you
have
the
multi-tiered
ones
where,
if
you
had
a
dog
Fido
could
drink
from
them.
You
could
refill
a
water
bottle
that
kind
of
thing
and
it
actually
becomes
quite
complicated
in
terms
of
the
water
access
and
and
getting
them
in
there.
M
So
I'm,
not
under
an
illusion
that
we're
going
to
be
able
to
recirculate
all
of
them,
and
it's
going
to
happen
overnight,
because
there's
going
to
be
some
Capital
costs,
but
I
do
think
some
prioritization
around
some
of
the
more
significant
ones
make
sense
and
with
respects
to
a
bit
of
sense
of
balance,
of
maybe
one
or
two
a
couple
in
each
neighborhood
so
that
you
know
people
across
the
city
can
enjoy
them
makes
a
whole
lot
of
sense.
I'm
hopeful
that
that's
what's
going
to
come
out
of
this!
Thank
you.
J
Thanks
chair
happy
to
support
this
and
appreciate
Anthony
coming
out
to
talk
about
the
importance
of
the
Howard,
Street
Fountain
and
indeed
those
water
features
and
and
trees,
and
all
those
kind
of
cooling
effects
are
so
important
for
our
well-being,
as
as
you've
all
articulated
and
I
definitely
appreciate
that
I
guess
the
one
piece
I
find
lacking
in
this
motion
and
that's
just
not
a
critique,
because
I
know
our
staff
will
come
back
with
that
thorough
analysis
around
the
climate,
lens
and
I.
J
Think
when
we
look
at
a
lot
of
these
fountains,
you
know
this
Centenary
Fountain.
You
know
the
fountain
that
we
used
to
have
in
the
art
gallery
where
maybe
one
of
us
went
through
a
box
of
Mr
Bubble,
just
saying
Mike,
but
but
all
these
fountains,
these
these
iconic
fountains
that
we
used
to
have.
You
know
that
was
at
a
time
when
the
Coquitlam
Glacier
was
still
intact
and
we
we
weren't
worrying
about
climate
change,
and
indeed
you
know.
J
I
just
saw
a
really
frightening
video
about
Lake
Mead
in
Nevada
and
just
how
low
the
water
levels
are
there
and
in
thanks
to
things
like
just
egregious
use
of
swimming
pools
and
fountains,
and
all
the
things
that
Las
Vegas
is
known
for
sucking
up
all
this
water
and
and
and
not
having
sort
of
a
realistic
perspective
on
the
the
very
clear
and
present
danger
of
climate
change
and
what
that's
going
to
mean
for
things
like
water
features.
So
I
appreciate
that
there
is
an
articulation
of
of
why
we
need
to
get
into
this.
J
The
the
recirculating
features
and
and
I'm
hoping
that
out
of
this
will
have
a
really
more
kind
of
thoughtful
conversation
and
recommendations
from
our
staff
about
water
fountains
of
the
future.
What
how
do
we
get
these
water
features
that
make
our
lives
so
much
better,
but
recognize
that
water
is
a
precious
and
finite
resource
and
we
are
going
to
have
increasing
struggles
with
it
in
the
not
too
distant
future
and
I
think
that's
something
that
I
look
forward
to
seeing
back.
