from
the
arts,
recreation
policies,
committee,
local
food
strategy
and
amendments
to
the
kingston
public
market
bylaw,
as
I
am
a
vendor
for
the
2021
spring
summer
season
at
the
memorial
center
farmers
market.
A
Okay,
see
none,
then
we
will
move
on
in
our
agenda.
We
have
the
presentations
this
evening,
but
we
do
have
three
delegations
and
just
a
reminder
to
each
of
our
delegations
that
you
have
five
minutes
and
then
we
will
open
up
two
questions
from
council,
so
our
first
delegation
is
tim
pater

downtown
kingston
bia
board

1
report

36
receive
from
the
arts,

policies
committee
with
respect
to
local
food
strategy
and
amendments
to
the
kingston
public
market
by
law.
F
F
F
More
people
are
interested
in
purchasing
local
food.
More
restaurants
are
using
local
food
as
components
of
their
menus
and
kingston
is
known
for
its
culinary
offerings.
Local
food
will
play
a
critical
role
in
rejuvenating
our
tourism
sector.
Once
coveted
restrictions
are
lifted,
buying
local
is
one
of
the
market
trends
forecasted
to
continue
well
beyond
the
pandemic.
F
The
bia
was
heavily
involved
in
the
original
local
foods.
Local
chefs
program,
which
resulted
in
the
project
for
public
spaces
document
on
improvements
to
the
market
that
was
submitted
to
city
council
in
2012.
The
current
proposed
changes
are
supported
by
this
study.
The
possible
addition
of
preparation
and
food
sampling
at
the
market
will
be
welcomed.
It
would
allow
us
to
further
augment
our
local
foods
chef
demos
that
have
been
running
since
2010
and
could
lead
to
even
more
year-round
events.
F
We
see
opportunities
for
more
programming
and
activities
through
the
winter
season,
with
the
possibility
of
night
holiday
and
makers
markets
during
what
is
a
challenging
time
of
the
year
as
a
local
restaurateur,
it
has
been
disheartening
to
witness
the
decline
of
the
market,
especially
when
it
had
been
so
vibrant.
In
the
past,
with
many
more
producers
attending
chefs
were
able
to
buy
a
much
larger
variety
of
local
products
for
their
menus
and,
in
turn,
help
to
support
the
local
economy.
F
A
Okay,
seeing
none
thank
you
very
much,
mr
peter,
and
with
that
we
will
move
to
our
second
delegation.
This
evening,
executive
director
of
tourism,
kingston
and
krista
leclaire
executive
director
of
student
accommodation
partners
will
appear
for
council
also
to
speak
to
clause
1
with
report
of
report
number
36
with
respect
to
local
food
strategy
and
amendments
to
kingston
public
market
by
law.
It's
not
and
mr
claire,
you
have
the
floor.
I
Thank
you,
mayor,
patterson
and
members
of
council.
Thank
you
for
the
slides
so
similar
and
mirroring
exactly
what
mr
peter
just
presented
to
you.
Tourism
kingston,
alongside
kingston
accommodation
partners,
has
really
sort
of
the
same
support
and
supporting
pieces
and
documentation
as
presented
by
our
dbia
partners.
Next
slide,
please.
I
So
obviously,
city
council
is
very
well
very
well
versed
by
this
time
on
the
kingston
integrated
destination
strategy.
I
don't
need
to
spend
time
on
it,
but
just
know
that
through
the
ids
and
the
ids
research
and
findings
that
we
know
that
the
kingston
public
market
specifically
was
one
of
the
pieces
that
was
called
out
in
this
strategy,
specifically
to
call
on
improvements,
as
it
relates
to
the
culinary
asset
that
that
public
market
presents
to
us
next
slide.
I
Please,
we
also
did
a
partnership
with
the
dbia
and
other
local
partners,
such
as
rt09
in
regards
to
the
kingston
culinary
strategy.
This
document,
again
as
presented
to
council
in
the
past,
just
informs
a
road
map
for
how
we
support
culinary
in
the
city
and
again,
this
specific
strategy
outlines
how
we
can
bring
further
improvements
to
the
kingston
public
market,
and
most
of
these
improvements
are
captured
in
the
development
of
what
you
see
in
front
of
you
tonight
at
council
about
the
proposed
bylaw
changes
next
slide.
I
Please
the
alignment
between
these
two
strategies,
so
that
of
the
ids
and
the
culinary
strategy,
really
calls
on
four
things.
It
calls
in
supporting
and
promoting
local
foods.
It
calls
on
prioritizing
local
farmers,
as
they
present
unique
findings
and
offerings
to
visit
visitors
and
residents
alike.
It
also
supports
the
farm-to-table
narrative
which
we
ventured
to
tell
and
to
ensure
the
uniqueness
of
our
farmers
that
only
you
can
find
in
kingston
and,
of
course,
that
calls
on
supporting
agri-tourism
experiences
next
slide.
Please.
J
J
That
would
be
fantastic
again,
looking
at
opportunities
to
have
a
year-round,
always-on
campaign
focusing
and
showcasing
the
wonderful,
culinary
opportunities
that
we
have
here
in
kingston,
and
I
think
you
know
just
to
build
on
that
from
the
accommodations
perspective
things
of
this
way
in
supporting
extending
stays
building
night
overnights,
you
know
bringing
more
people
into
the
city
having
them
stay
longer,
spend
more
again.
Those
are
pieces
that
help
keep
our
mats
strong,
the
municipal
accommodation
tax,
looking
at
recovery
for
sectors
that
are
really
struggling.
J
A
Okay,
let's
see
none.
Thank
you
both
very
much
with
that.
We'll
move
to
our
third
delegation
this
evening,
ella
fenton
urban
agriculture,
organizer
from
loving
spoonful,
will
appear
before
council
again
to
speak
to
clause
1
report
number
36
with
respect
to
local
food
strategy
and
amendments
to
the
kingston
public
market,
bylaw
svendon.
You
have
the
floor.
K
K
One
crucial
component
of
all
successful
farmers
markets
that
I'm
aware
of
including
the
memorial
center
is
self-governance
by
the
farmers
themselves.
So
we
strongly
support
the
recommendation
to
move
the
public
market
towards
a
self-governance
model
that
prioritizes
farmers
and,
of
course
the
city
needs
to
prioritize
to
support
all
farmers
markets
within
the
city,
not
just
the
kingston
public
market.
So
we
are
also
grateful
for
the
recommendation
that
the
city
waive
fees
for
the
other
markets,
including
the
memorial
center.
K
We
are
one
of
only
a
handful
of
farmers
markets
in
all
of
ontario
that
actually
pays
rent
to
the
city,
because
most
cities
recognize
farmers
markets
as
a
as
a
valuable
public
good
and
then
offer
the
space
for
free.
So
in
past
years,
we've
paid
between
six
and
eight
thousand
dollars
rent
a
year
to
the
city,
which
of
course,
is
a
drop
in
the
bucket
for
the
municipal
budget,
but
is
a
significant
portion
of
the
operating
budget
for
the
market
that
could
be
better
invested.
K
So
we
are.
We
are
also
very
excited
that
this
report
includes
mention
of
an
indoor
year-round
market
space.
The
memorial
center
currently
operates
the
only
year-round
market
in
the
region
and
we
are
restricted
to
using
the
unheated
memorial
center
barns,
which
of
course
poses
significant
challenges
for
vendors
and
customers
and
and
adversely
affects
sales
when
the
weather
is
poor.
K
So
loving
spoonful
is
also
very
encouraged
to
see
the
beginnings
of
a
local
food
strategy
framework
laid
out
in
this
report.
Of
course,
all
of
the
research
related
to
food
systems
and
and
climate
change,
food
security,
social
justice
and
and
rural
economic
health
all
point
to
the
need
to
rebuild
food
systems
that
are
localized
that
are
environmentally
regenerative
and
they're,
they're
rooted
in
principles
of
equity
and
justice,
and
so
on.
On
this
note,
loving
sinful
strongly
endorses
the
recommendation
to
improve
access
to
city-owned
lands
for
food
production.
K
Programming
in
the
city,
so
land
access
and
other
supports
for
new
farmers
needs
to
be
a
key
pillar
of
this
local
food
strategy
moving
forward,
and
we
would
very
much
like
to
see
council
provide
staff
with
a
mandate
to
prioritize
this
work
and,
of
course,
to
allocate
sufficient
funding
to
to
resource
it.
Part
of
my
job
at
loving
spoonful
is
coordinating
the
community
gardens
network,
and
I
can
certainly
tell
you
that
the
demand
there
is
far
outweighing
the
supply.
K
So
the
result
is
that
we
currently
only
have
community
gardens
in
in
higher
income
neighborhoods,
where
residents
have
the
volunteer
time
the
skills
and
the
financial
resources
to
to
fund
the
garden
construction
themselves
and
navigate
that
process.
So
if
the
city
would
like
to
actually
see
some
equity
in
terms
of
access
to
land,
for
food
production,
increased
financial
resources
for
coordination
and
garden,
installation
costs
will
need
to
be
budgeted
for.
K
I
would
really
encourage
council
and
staff
to
check
out
the
city
of
victoria's
model.
They
have
a
program
called
growing
in
the
city
and
they
are
absolutely
top
of
class
amongst
canadian
cities
that
are
encouraging
subsistence
and
commercial
urban
food
production
and
as
a
city
of
a
similar
size.
I
think
that
there's
a
lot
of
information,
inspiration
that
can
be
taken
there.
K
We
believe
that
kingston
holds
absolutely
massive
potential
for
becoming
a
food
systems
leader
if
our
municipal
government
is,
is
willing
to
take
this
work
on,
and
our
city
is
home
to
some
really
amazing
food
organizations,
and-
and
so
we
hope
that
the
council
will
approve
these
recommendations
and
the
city
staff
can
continue
to
work
with
all
of
these
grassroots
organizations
to
do
to
further
develop
the
local
food
strategy.
30.
H
H
I
do
have
a
very
specific
question,
and
that
is,
I
think,
it's
in
class
7.3
and
it's
the
time
and
from
time
to
time
the
city
requires
the
marker
like
for
perhaps
for
special
events
like
a
film,
for
example,
and
I
know,
there's
been
frustrations
in
the
past
on
how
much
notice
vendors
have
received,
and
the
report
says
that
there
will
be
a
four-week
notice.
Is
that
enough
time?
Do
you
think
for
vendors
to
go
and
find
an
alternative
place
to
market
their
word.
K
Short
answer
is
no.
Four
weeks
is
certainly
better
than
one
week,
which
I
think
is
what
it
was
previously,
the
more
notice,
the
better,
of
course,
but
what
what
I
would
like
to
see
and
what
I
know
a
lot
of
the
vendors
that
I
have
spoken
to
would
like
to
see
is
that
there
are
no
saturday
markets
cancelled
during
the
main
growing
season
from
may
through
october.
K
For
many
of
the
farmer
vendors.
This
is
this:
is
their
sole
source
of
income
and
cancelling
a
saturday
market
during
the
growing
season.
There's
no
there's
no
other
outlet
for
that
food
if
that's
what
they're,
depending
on
for
distributing
and
selling
their
goods,
so
that
that
would
be.
I
think
what
a
lot
of
the
vendors
would
tell
you
is
that
they
don't
think
it's
acceptable
to
ever.
Cancel
the
saturday
market.
K
L
L
I
I'd
be
willing
to
cut
you
know
to
pull
that,
pull
that
with
you.
You
know
and
support
you
in
that,
in
whatever
way
I,
this
is
a
passion
for
me
to
see
our
food
chains
have
the
support,
and
so
I
guess
I
want
to
ask
you
that.
Are
you
working
behind
the
scenes
and
and
really
clarifying
what
needs
to
change
locally
like
we
are
doing
right
now,
and
I
applaud
city
council
and
the
staff
for
supporting
this
and
and
driving
it
forward
with
with
you
guys.
K
Yeah,
so
so
so
I
I've
been
doing
quite
a
bit
of
research
into
other
jurisdictions
and
what
models
exist
in
other
cities
in
canada
and
the
united
states
victoria
is
a
really
great
example,
and
just
to
kind
of
highlight
the
difference
in
kingston.
Currently
there's
a
plot
of
about
five
thousand
dollars
per
year.
K
That's
allocated
to
community
garden
grants
and
that's
the
750
startup
grant
that
I
mentioned
for
the
first
year
and
then
500
per
year
in
subsequent
years
for
maintenance
and
to
compare
that
to
the
city
of
victoria,
which
actually
has
a
smaller
population
than
city
than
the
city
of
kingston.
They
allocate
upwards
of
fifty
thousand
dollars
to
a
grants
process
so
that
they're
providing
ten
up
to
ten
thousand
dollars
for
garden,
startup
costs,
which
is
a
more
appropriate
number
that
actually
covers
the
cost
of
construction
of
a
large.
K
You
know
a
medium-sized
allotment
garden
and
and
they
provide
funding
for
grants
to
help
with
community
garden
coordination.
So
so
that's
one
example,
but
but
yes,
I
am,
I
am
working
on
putting
together
some
proposals
around
on.
What's
what
best
practices
would
be
and
and
what
sorts
of
financial
investments
from
the
city
would
be
required
to
to
reach
those
types
of
goals?.
L
K
A
Certainly,
thank
you
very
much.
Are
there
any
other
questions
from
council
any
questions?
Okay,
let's
see
none.
Thank
you
very
much.
Listen!
So
with
that
we
have
no
further
delegations,
so
we
will
now
move
to
briefings.
We
have
one
briefing
on
our
agenda.
Dr
kieran,
moore
medical
officer
of
health
for
kflna,
public
health.
Will
brief
council
on
copenhagen
and
vaccinations
in
the
kflna
area.
A
M
Thank
you,
mayor,
patterson
and
through
youtube
council
and
the
community
yeah
I
have.
I
have
some
updates.
I
can
give
you
just
on
our
current
status.
What
I
should
first
do
is
just
thank
the
community.
I
think
our
community
is
doing
relatively
well.
We've
had
tremendous
support
to
limit
the
spread
of
covet
19
in
in
our
community
and
tremendous
adherence
to
best
practices
and-
and
it's
certainly
deeply
appreciated
from
everyone
here
at
kfla
public
health.
M
I
also
have
to
thank
through
you,
mayor,
patterson
and
council,
all
your
staff
that
have
helped
us.
We've
used
the
memorial
center.
If
you
recall,
as
an
assessment
and
testing
site,
then
we
moved
to
leon's
and
now
we're
using
the
invista
center,
and
the
partnership
with
the
city
of
kingston
has
has,
to
be
honest.
M
So
just
today
in
ontario,
we've
had
1546
cases.
The
percentage
of
tests
that
are
positive
is
4.7
868
individuals
in
hospital
today,
with
324
of
whom
are
in
the
intensive
care
unit.
So
those
numbers
are
starting
to
go
back
up
and
we're
talking
about
a
third
wave
in
ontario
and
there
are
variants
of
concern
that
are
taking
over
as
they
as
the
main
vector
of
illness,
and
so
we
have
to
be
very,
very
vigilant
over
the
coming
months,
and
but
in
particular
april
for
our
region,
we
have
92
active
cases.
M
M
So
I
have
to
thank
the
community
for
embracing
prevention
and
keeping
your
social
circles
small
and
our
case
and
contact
managers,
and
I
have
to
say
we
have
a
significant
group
of
volunteers,
helping
us
with
case
with
contact
management
and
that's
really
helping
us
stay
on
top
of
this.
So
we
do
have
more
cases.
M
The
good
news
as
well
is
that
no
one
is
in
hospital
at
this
time
and
we
have
had
no
significant
impact
on
intensive
care
services,
emergency
medical
services
and
through
a
collaboration
with
the
city
of
kingston,
we've
been
able
to
have.
I
think,
one
of
the
quietest,
sadly
st
patrick's
week,
celebrations
ever
and
have
to
thank
the
community
for
that.
M
Also
on
on
a
very
positive
note,
we
have
delivered
through
multiple
partners,
kingston
health
sciences,
center
kingston,
community
health
center,
our
primary
care
partners
and
our
pharmacy
partners.
43
000
doses
of
vaccine
in
our
region,
58
of
those
over
80
years
of
age,
have
received
their
at
least
their
first
dose,
which
is
remarkable
coverage
for
our
region.
64
of
those
aged
60
to
64
have
received
their
first
doses
as
well
and,
as
a
result,
the
population
coverage
of
those
over
16
years
of
age
in
our
region
is
18.
M
The
average
for
ontario
is
10,
so
we
have
a
plan
to
get
80
percent
coverage
of
over
80s
over
70s
over
60s.
That's
a
number
that
we're
trying
to
achieve
to
get
good
population
coverage
so
that
in
the
fall
we
can
start
to
get
back
to
normal
and
we've
had
multiple
sites
where
anyone
can
get
immunized
and
we're
partnering.
Now
with
primary
care.
M
We
expect
around
40
000
doses
of
vaccine
till
the
end
of
april
and
all
of
those
will
rapidly
go
into
arms
to
best
protect
those
that
are
vulnerable
in
our
community
and,
as
you
may
recall,
we
have
a
vaccination
strategy
for
now.
Anyone
over
75
can
go
online
at
ontario.ca
and
book
an
appointment
or
call
the
1888
number
to
get
an
appointment
or
our
local
pharmacies.
47
different
pharmacies
across
kfla
are
participating
and
you
can
receive
a
vaccine
either
through
a
booking
system
online
or
a
phone
call.
M
So
I'm
very
happy
with
the
rollout
to
date
and
the
partnerships
that
are
existing,
but
given
that
a
significant
proportion
of
our
cases
now
have
that
variant
of
concern,
we
all
have
to
keep
our
social
circles
small.
We
have
to
remain
vigilant
for
april,
as
we
want
to
get
those
40,
000
plus
doses,
into
the
arms
to
best
protect
vulnerable
people.
M
In
our
community,
I
think
we're
making
good
progress
but
april
really
is
a
month
where
I
think
we
have
to
hunker
down
limit
our
social
contacts
and,
as
a
result,
limit
the
spread
of
this
virus.
If
you
just
look
to
eastern
ontario
health
unit,
they're
in
the
red
ottawa
is
in
the
red,
their
rates
are
over
50
per
100
000
and
they've
all
had
a
significant
impact
on
their
hospital
sectors
and
leeds
granville
lanark
has
a
rate
of
illness.
That's
significant
as
well.
I
don't
want
us
to
get
there.
M
I
want
us
to
embrace
prevention
and
the
way
we
can
minimize
the
spread
of
this
virus
is
in
your
social
circles,
keeping
them
small,
limited
five
or
less
outdoors
five
or
less
indoors,
and
that's
how
we
can
limit
the
spread
of
this
virus.
I'm
I'm
happy
to
stop
there,
mayor,
patterson
and
and
take
any
questions
from
council.
N
Here
we're
shipping
through
you,
dr
moore,
once
again,
thank
you
for
everything
that
you're
doing
for
the
community.
I
just
I
guess,
I'm
gonna
ask
a
question
that
kind
of
almost
seems
like
an
elephant
in
the
room
and
I'm
sure
I'm
not
the
only
one
experiencing
this
and
anytime
people
are
asking
me
about
the
current
increase
in
cases.
It
seems
that
there's
a
direct
association
in
questioning
with
queen's
university
and
perhaps
student
parties,
or
anything
that's
going
on
there.
N
So
I'm
just
curious
if
you,
if
you
could
address
that
and
just
kind
of
clarify
where
these
cases
are
coming
from,
because
right
now
there's
a
narrative
that
it
seems
to
be
persons
in
the
public
through
reading
the
media
or
any
other
information
seem
to
be
associating
the
massive
increase
of
in
cases
in
kingston
recently
with
queen's
university.
Is
that
a
fair
assessment,
or
are
those
cases
even
related
to
some
of
those
get
together?
I
just
want
the
facts
up
there.
Please.
Oh.
M
So
at
least
two-thirds
of
our
cases
are
in
younger
people
in
our
community.
We
have
an
outbreak
on
campus
that
I
think
through
great
partnerships.
King's
university
is
under
control,
that
was
in
a
residence
watts
hall
in
particular,
and
that
activity
on
campus
at
queens
through
great
partnership,
early
identification
of
cases,
good
testing
strategies,
good
isolation,
is
under
control.
M
I
do
think
before
our
section
22
order
came
in
play
the
week
of
st
patrick's
day.
There
were
social
events
that
were
occurring
that
was
allowed
under
green
on
so
groups
of
ten
or
more
were
allowed
were
up
to
ten
at
an
indoor
setting,
and
I
do
believe
that
that's
where
the
virus
started
to
spread.
It
probably
started
after
reading
week
where
people
naturally
would
have
gone
home.
M
We
didn't
advise
that,
but
that's
a
tendency,
if
you
want
to
see
your
parents
etc
or
for
essential
purposes,
and
the
virus
came
back
and
started
slowly
spreading
in
that
environment,
but
then
it
can
reach
a
sudden
momentum
very
quickly.
So
I
know
some
people
are
upset.
We
do
have
significant
off-campus
activity
of
the
virus.
These
individuals
are
members
of
our
community.
M
Queens
has
been
with
us,
I
guess
the
charter
was
signed
in
1841
and
we've
had
students
in
kingston.
Since
that
time
I
can
understand
their
anger,
but
the
virus
is
where
we
should
direct
our
anger.
It's
very
nasty.
It
spreads
easily,
even
if
you're
in
small
social
groups,
it
can
spread
and
it
can
spread
asymptomatically.
M
So
I
don't
like
blaming
any
organization
or
person.
I
blame
the
virus
for
being
here
and
being
nasty
and
aggressive
and
spreading.
I
do
think,
since
we
put
the
section
22
order
we
haven't
seen
and
and
asked
our
community
to
embrace
smaller
social
circles.
We
haven't
seen
any
significant
events
that
have
been
super
spreading
events
since
that
time.
N
Thank
you
for
that
wholesome
answer
just
to
quickly
take
on
that.
I
know
when
you
mentioned
the
smaller
social
circles.
I
believe
in
the
news
it
reported
that
people
can
potentially
travel
to
other
cities
to
receive
vaccines.
Is
there
I
know
there's
a
little
bit
of
consternation
with
that?
Is
there
any
do
you
have
any
concerns
about
that,
or
is
that
just
a
way
if
somebody
comes
here
from
ottawa
to
kingston?
Is
that
just
a
way
to
get
everybody
vaccinated
quicker?
Because
I
know
the
vaccines
have
an
expiry
date?
N
M
Yeah,
so
that's
a
good
question.
We
asked
the
minister
of
health
and
the
chief
medical
officer
of
health,
and,
just
like
you
can
seek
health
care,
you
can
go
to
any
emergency
department
if
necessary
across
the
province,
there's
no
limitation
of
where
you
can
get
the
vaccine
in
in
this
province.
At
this
time,
and
initially
this
vaccine,
we
had
47
participating
pharmacies,
each
got
around
500
doses
for
ages,
60
to
64..
M
Well,
we
only
have
14
000
individuals
in
that
age
group
so
because
of
the
the
extra
supply
people
from
leeds
granville
lanark,
hastings
prince
edward
and
ottawa
did
avail
themselves
of
the
vaccine.
We
would
have
never
been
able
to
use
all
of
the
vaccine
for
that
age
group
and,
yes,
it
had
to
be
used
because
all
vaccines
have
an
expiry
date,
and
so
we
have
been
a
source
of
immunizing
over
3
000
individuals
for
astrazeneca
outside
of
our
region
over
the
last
week,
and
I'm
not
happy
about
travel.
M
But
this
is
a
resource
for
all
ontarians
and
if
anyone
was
traveling,
they
get
screened
at
the
pharmacy
and
make
sure
you
don't
have
a
fever
a
cough.
Any
symptoms
of
covid19
you're
wearing
a
mask
you're
having
that
appropriate
physical
distancing.
I
got
my
shot
of
astrazeneca
today
and
I
was
very
impressed
by
the
protocols
the
pharmacies
had
in
play.
So
I
don't
think
that
was
a
threat
or
risk
to
our
community.
The
vaccines
aren't
ours,
they're,
ontarios
and
they're
for
all
ontarians.
N
Okay,
thank
you
for
that
yeah.
It
sounds
like
there's
protocols
in
place
and
that
the
amount
of
travel
will
decrease
over
time.
Just
one
further
question:
on
the
there
was
a
video
that
that
came
out.
Basically
speaking
to
the
new
gathering
limits,
it's
five
indoors,
I
believe,
and
five
outdoors
so
and
even
in
the
video
it
did
say
household
members
only
so
I
I
have
five
children
and
then
my
wife
and
I
so
there's
seven
of
us.
N
M
Any
household,
absolutely
you
stay
in
your
household,
it's
just
that!
We
don't
want
you
to
have
five
more
people
over
to
to
your
household
and
and
we'll
try
to
get
some
more
risk
communication
out
as
we
head
into
easter.
I
I
I'm
you
know,
I
don't
like
putting
public
health
measures
in
play.
I
don't
like
restricting
freedoms,
but
I
do
think
this
is
essential.
I'd
like
to
keep
us
in
yellow.
M
L
Yeah,
thank
you,
dr
moore,
and
thank
you
for
the
incredible
work
that
you
and
your
team
do
on
a
daily
basis,
and
I
sort
of
was
thinking
about
counselor
baum's
family.
There
we're
all
realizing
the
size,
but
there
are
other
actually
it's
very
real
for
other
families,
and
so
I
really
appreciate
your
answer.
I
mean
I
thought
it
was
true.
We
would
all
take
his
newborn.
It
was
so
beautiful,
but
not
made
congratulations
but
seriously.
L
I
know
that
some
families
are
under
stress
and
so
maybe
there's
a
way
that
we
can
communicate
that
some
families
I
just
heard
from
one
in
my
district
and
so
maybe
other
counselors-
have
that
where
they
actually
need
family
assistance
for
special
needs
children
and
how?
How
can
we
offer?
How
can
you
give
them
guidelines
and
what
can
we?
How
can
we
look
to
you
to
allow
respite
for
these
homes
that
are
under
particularly
difficult
medical
and
and
family
crisis?
What.
M
We
absolutely
want
to
support
those
families
and
we'll
we've
had
good
feedback
on
on
risk
communication
for
those
eventualities.
So
over
easter,
we
we
don't
want
solo
individuals
stranded,
and
so
you
know
we're
going
to
make
suggestions
that
you
can.
You
know
invite
that
solo
person,
whether
they're
elderly,
to
come,
join
your
family,
but
don't
invite
multiple
individuals
to
come
into
your
family,
because
that
is
where
we
have
a
high
risk
event
and
certainly,
if
they're,
medically,
necessary
or
socially
necessary.
M
Please
create
that
small
social
circle
that
will
be
supportive,
that'll
meet
the
rules.
The
concept
is
really.
What
we're
trying
to
get
everyone
in
the
community
to
embrace
is
mainly
keeping
your
social
circle
as
small
as
possible,
so
we
don't
get
transmission
over
the
next
several
weeks,
because
we
are
at
hydrous
point.
L
M
D
Yes,
thank
you,
your
worship,
dr
moore.
I
appreciate
everything
you're
doing
for
the
residents
and
the
team
of
healthcare
professionals
you
have
working
alongside
of
you
to
help
keep
our
community
safe
on
that
line
of
thought
of
keeping
our
community
safe.
You
mentioned
the
university
and,
and
certainly
principal
dean
has
come
to
council
and
preached
about
how
he's
proud
to
have
the
smartest
and
brightest
canadian
students
in
canada
attending
queens
university
and
with
that
a
number
of
students
were
reported
to
have
been
charged
for
parties.
D
M
M
I
do
believe
they
have
a
student
code
of
conduct
and
that
they
are
prepared
if
someone's
found
guilty
to
to
use
that
student
code
of
conduct,
but
all
that
I
have
been
told
that
it
takes
a
significant
amount
of
time
for
the
processing
and
and
some
of
these
tickets
are
court
appearances.
You
must
go
to
court
and
have
the
due
process
of
law,
but
you
know
I
I
think
we
should
pay
attention
to
this
and
monitor
queen's
response.
O
Thank
you.
This
is
a
question
from
a
constituent
who
was
asking
about
reports
in
the
united
states
how
they
are
wasting
some
of
the
vaccines,
because
people
are
taking
them,
and
you
mentioned
that
we
have
extras,
and
there
are
people
coming
from
other
communities
coming
here.
Is
there
any
danger
that
we
might
have
that
much
passing
hesitancy
where
we
might
actually
have
to
throw
any
of
them
away?
O
M
Well,
good
question
I
I
said
extra
because
we
were
only
allowed
to
provide
astrazeneca
in
pharmacies
for
the
ages
of
60
to
64.
and
we
were
given
23
000
doses
for
roughly,
if
all
if
we
had
complete
100
adherence
for
14
000
doses.
Now
that
it's
been
expanded
from
60
and
older,
I
think
our
pharmacies
are
rapidly
running
out
of
vaccine
and
they'll
be
waiting
for
their
new
supply
in
in
april.
M
So
there's
there's,
I
I-
and
I
also
don't
want
any
anyone
to
think
any
dose
is
being
wasted
in
kfl
a
we
empty.
Our
goal
is
to
empty
the
fridges,
as
the
general
says,
general
hilliar.
Every
monday
we
try
to
get
every
dose,
that's
been
delivered
the
week
before
into
arms,
and
I
hold
my
team
accountable
and
we've
been
very
successful
in
ensuring
that
every
dose
is
provided
and
we
have
no
wastage.
We
have
no
expiry
dates
occurring
on
any
of
our
vaccine
in.
M
O
Thank
you
and
a
second
question
from
a
constituent,
the
european
union.
Some
countries
have
banned
astrozenica
and
I
suspect
it
might
be
geopolitical
they
might
be
upset
with
the
british
because
of
brexit,
or
something
like
that.
Have
you,
in
your
studies,
seen
any
legitimate
concerns
that
some
of
these
countries
have
banned
it.
Have
you
seen
anything
that
might
suggest
that
we
should
use
another
one
or
are
all
vaccines,
essentially
the
same.
M
Well,
number
one
there's
very
good
safety
monitoring
of
all
vaccines
in
canada
and
nationally
and
internationally.
So
if
any
signal
of
harm
or
adverse
events
is
identified,
it
is
investigated.
So
I'm
happy
that
an
investigation
has
occurred
in
europe.
I
don't
think
the
conclusion
has
been
made.
Yet
there
is
a
very
rare
event
that
can
occur
called
it's.
The
sticky
parts
of
your
blood
called
platelets
where
the
platelets
can
get
very
low,
and
then
then
you
can
get
some
blood
clumping.
M
There
has
been
an
association
with
the
astrazeneca
vaccine
at
around
one
in
a
million
doses
in
very
particular
events.
It
still
needs
to
be
investigated
thoroughly,
but
it
it
is
around
one
in
a
million
doses
that
that
event
has
been
occurring.
That
manufacturer
does
not
provide
the
doses
for
canada,
nor
have
any
of
the
lots
that
have
been
associated
with
this
arrived
in
canada.
So
I
I
do
have
confidence
in
our
supply.
M
I
have
confidence
that
if
this
is
a
truly
causative
event
associated
with
the
vaccine,
that
it
is
exceptionally
rare
and
the
the
risk
of
the
disease
of
covet
19
far
outweighs
the
risk
of
a
one
million
potential
side
effect
in
a
small
number
of
individuals.
That's
why
I
was
confident
going
into
the
pharmacy
today.
Having
booked
my
vaccine,
I'm
age
eligible
and
gotten
astrazeneca.
I
have
complete
confidence
in
all
of
the
vaccines
and
as
you're,
seeing
in
reading
once
they're
in
the
real
world.
M
The
effectiveness
of
present
all
of
the
vaccines
that
preventing
hospitalization
and
presenting
preventing
death
is
very,
very
powerful
in
the
in
the
high
80s,
which
is
just
remarkable,
and
hence
the
you
know
the
reason
if
you're
offered
a
vaccine
by
age
eligibility
or
by
medical
eligibility.
Please
no
matter
what
the
vaccine
is
they're,
all
very
effective
at
preventing
hospitalization
and
death.
M
If
anyone
has
an
adverse
event
following
immunization
that
that
is
medically
validated
and
you
would
it's
like
an
insurance
system,
you
would
receive
compensation
for
any
adverse
event
suing
a
major
pharmaceutical
was
a
major
obstacle
and
hence
the
reason
your
local
public
health
agency
lobbied
for
this
mandatory
compensation
system.
The
federal
government
subsequently
hasn't
given
us
details,
but
they
have
agreed
that
that
will
be
in
place
in
canada,
and
I
would
assume
it
goes
retrospectively.
It
goes
and
would
compensate
anyone.
That's
received
the
vaccines.
E
Thank
you
roshan,
and
thank
you,
dr
moore,
for
the
fantastic
work,
our
expert
communicator,
which
is
so
important,
and
everyone
really
values
your
leadership.
The
I
have
two
questions.
The
first
one
is
related
to
the
pharmacy
distribution
of
the
vaccine
versus
the
online
booking
system
for
the
province.
So
there's
two
different
age
categories
for
eligibility
there
over
60.
If
you're
going
to
about
to
a
to
a
pharmacy
or
75
and
older,
can
book
through
the
portal,
the
ontario
portal,
is
there
a
difference
in
terms
of
supply?
Like
would
someone?
M
Well,
good
question
and
you're
right,
it's
very
dynamic
and
I
could
understand
that
being
confusing
off
the
start.
The
government
wasn't
expecting
to
get
this
extra
doses
of
astrazeneca
and
and
had
to
rapidly
put
it
in
play
and,
and
they
made
a
decision
at
the
government
level
to
use
the
pharmacy
system
and
initially
the
national
advisory
committee
on
immunization
said
you
could
only
give
it
to
60
to
64
years
of
age.
M
So
that's
the
rule
that
they
followed
now
it's
60
and
over
now
that
we
have
better
evidence
that
it's
very
protective
against
admission
to
hospital
and
death.
So
the
age
group
then
was
expanded.
So
they're,
I'm
happy
they're
following
the
evidence
and
they're
responding
and
making
the
vaccine
more
available,
but
I
could
understand
it
being
confusing.
M
M
E
I
hope
you
somehow
had
a
good
day
the
thank
you
yeah,
that
is,
that
definitely
clarifies
and,
of
course,
given
the
pilots
and
how
dynamic
the
situation
is.
I
think
members
of
the
public
understand
that,
but
it's
just
good
to
get
a
little
bit
extra
clarity
there.
The
the
other
question
is
regarding
the
introduction
of
asymptomatic
testing
for
for
students,
and
there
was
notice
today
from
limestone
district
school
board
on
this.
I
think
for
most
parents,
when
they
heard
that
this
was
this
idea
was
coming
forward.
E
E
It
would
therefore
be
a
parent's
discretion
to
whether
or
not
to
take
a
a
student
out
of
school
and
take
them
to
a
clinic
to
get
tested,
and
I'm
just
wondering
your
thoughts
are
on
that.
What
the
value
is
is:
is
this
part
of
a
sort
of
a
bigger
study
to
get
that
information,
or
is
it
for
parents
who
are
who
are
worried
but
feel
they
can't
go
to
that
assessment
center
because
their
children
don't
have
symptoms.
M
M
This
is
a
means
by
which
they
can
actually
catch
cases
and
then
go
back
and
find
that
if
it's
in
the
family
and
then
try
to
get
a
handle
on
the
spread
so
number
one,
it
is
voluntary.
It's
a
board
of
education
initiative
with
the
ministry
of
health
and
the
designated
assessment
sites.
Whether
it's
in
napanee
and
or
at
beech
grove
are,
are
the
testing
locations
for
you're
right?
I
would
have
preferred
it
be
more
accessible
and
available
on
site
on
location.
M
If
there
is
ever
an
outbreak,
our
teams,
together,
typically
with
paramedics
and
or
primary
care,
will
go
to
the
school
and
offer
testing,
especially
the
remote
schools,
and
we've
just
done
that
atlanta
lakes
public
school
in
in
the
lennox
and
addington
area.
If
that
gives
any
clarity,
was
that
did
I
answer
enough.
P
P
M
M
So
we
have
mass
immunization
clinics
at
the
invista
center
and
we
are
partnering
with
other
partners
in
in
the
city
of
matheny
and
with
our
kingston
community
health
center
and
with
the
hospital
partners
to
get
and
immunize
other
age
groups
or
at-risk
individuals,
but
for
age-based
criteria
in
the
city
of
kingston.
It's
mainly
at
the
avista
center
at
present
for
the
pfizer
product,
any
additional
moderna
product,
we're
partnering
with
our
primary
care
partners,
and
they
will
run
parallel
clinics
but
it'll
be
age-based
as
well.
75
and
above.
P
Q
Thank
you,
your
worship
and
thank
you
so
much,
dr
moore,
for
your
update.
We
always
learn
so
much
from
them.
My
question
is
about
a
newspaper
article.
I
read
today
about
what
they're
doing
in
the
city
of
toronto
and
they're
doing
on
door-to-door
vaccines
at
their
community
housing
corporation
as
well
as
they're,
even
even
using
like
their
library
staff
to
start
phoning
on
card
holders
that
are
in
you
know
the
senior
citizen
age
bracket
to
see
you
know
if
they
need
help
registering
for
the
vaccines.
Q
So
with
the
sites
that
we
have
in
kingston
being
mainly
the
invista
center
and
then
I
know
we
also
have
a
site
on
weller
avenue
at
the
community
health
center.
Do
you
see
us
I'm
also
going
to
maybe
a
mobile
clinic
in
you
know,
sometime
in
the
next
couple
of
weeks,
to
get
more
vaccinations
out
or
are
we
happy
with
just
using
the
invista
center.
M
Oh
no,
I
mean
I
I'm
sorry,
I
didn't
fully
describe
our.
We
have
a
very
robust
delivery
mechanism
for
vaccine.
Just
to
let
you
know,
we
finished
all
long-term
care
facilities
and
have
done
all
double
doses
for
all
patients
in
long-term
care
facilities.
We
are
physically
going
to
our
retirement
homes
and
we're
done
as
of
march
25th,
all
of
our
retirement
homes,
because
we
have
set
up
mobile
clinics
and
gone
to
all
of
them.
M
We
have
gone
to
other
vulnerable
groups
like
the
integrated
care
hub
and
provided
vaccination
to
individuals
there,
as
well
as
their
workers,
because
we've
had
incident
cases
in
that
environment.
We
have
also
partnered
with
kingston
health
sciences
center,
which
runs
a
very
robust
clinic
that
started
through
their
highest
risk.
Healthcare
workers,
their
high-risk
health
care
workers
and
is
now
moving
on
to
the
dialysis
patients
to
the
immune
suppressed
to
the
oncology
clinics,
and
we
continue
to
have
our
mobile
clinics
that
go
to
hot
spots
or
at-risk
populations.
M
So
I
I
don't
want
you
to
think
it's
just
mobile
spot
or
fixed
places.
We
have
also
partnered
with
primary
care
and
done
drive
through
vaccine
clinics
on
wolf
island
just
to
learn
how
well
we
can
do
that
and
are
going
to
continue
that
type
of
model.
Elsewhere,
we've
pri
we've
provided
primary
care
partners
in
a
a
quiet
roll
out
to
with
moderna
in
their
practices,
just
to
provide
us
with
lessons
learned
and
memorial
arena
that
kindly
the
city
of
kingston
is
letting
us
use
this
week.
M
We're
piloting
primary
care
partners
using
that
clinic
and
using
moderna.
We
also
have
been
able
to
move
moderna
and
are
starting
to
go
into
homes,
to
provide
a
vaccine
to
home
care
recipients
with
our
paramedic
partners
and
community
paramedic
partners.
So
I
I
mean
I
could
spend
an
hour
telling
you
all
the
various
projects
we're
doing.
I
think
you
should
have
confidence
that
we're
trying
to
meet
the
most
vulnerable,
we're
providing
the
essential
workers,
those
that
are
most
at
risk,
whether
they're
medically
at
risk
and
or
through
vulnerable
living
in
vulnerable
settings.
Q
Okay,
thanks
for
that
inside
of
that
extra
information,
my
last
question
is
also
from
the
newspaper
that
one
of
my
constituents
sent
in
so
I
know
that
you
said
on
a
special
task
force
at
queen's
park,
and
so
maybe
you
have
some
insight
into
this
in
quebec.
For
eden,
restaurants,
to
try
to
you
know,
control
the
spread
of
covet
they're,
just
trying
to
have
eden
patrons
right,
be
from
the
region.
M
So
that's
more
at
a
public
health
measures
table
and-
and
I'm
I've
heard
again
and
again
from
the
premier
that
he's
not
interested
in
travel
restrictions
and
or
limiting
travel
within
ontario
or
even
between
provinces.
I
think
that's
been
fairly
clear.
We
did
have
a
stay-at-home
order.
That's
gone
that
was
not
actually
enforced
to
my
knowledge
and
travel
restrictions
are,
are
not
not
a
means
that
this
government
will
pursue.
M
A
R
A
A
The
move
by
mayor
patterson
seconded
by
deputy
mayor
holland,
that
the
sincere
condolences
of
kingston
city
council
extended
to
brent
fowler,
director
of
corporate
asset
management
and
fleet
on
the
passing
of
his
father
gary
fowler
on
march
10th,
2021
barry
was
a
retired
firefighter
for
kingston
fire
and
rescue.
Our
thoughts
are
with
barry's,
family
and
friends
at
this
difficult
time.
A
A
A
A
Okay
clause,
1,
renewal
of
the
service
level
agreement
between
the
city
of
kingston
and
the
kingston
arts,
council
and
council
participation
in
the
2021
city
of
kingston
arts
fund
jury.
So
just
note
that
I
am
looking
for
two
volunteers:
one
counselor
to
participate
in
the
operating
grants,
jury
and
one
counselor
to
volunteer
to
participate
in
project
grants,
jury.
Whatever
volunteers,
counselor
chappelle,
which
which
jury
would
you
prefer
to
volunteer.
A
C
A
Very
good
so
just
to
confirm
then
clause.
One
will
note
councillor
chappelle
as
a
member
of
the
operating
grants,
jury
and
council
neil.
As
a
member
of
the
project,
grants,
jury.
Okay,
we
will
call
the
vote
then
on
clause
1,
all
those
in
favor
opposed
and
that's
carried
clause.
2
update
on
bylaw
to
prohibit
open
doors
and
windows
when
air
conditioning
operating.
C
Yes,
a
couple
of
questions
that
was
actually
a
two-part
motion
that
passed
almost
unanimously,
as
I
remember
in
2019-
and
this
is
the
second
time
it's
been
deferred,
which
is
somewhat
frustrating.
The
other
thing
that
I
was
curious
about
is
the
second
part
of
this
was
requesting
better
enforcement
of
the
anti-idling
by-law.
That
already
exists.
S
Thank
you
and
through
mr
mayor,
so
I
I
don't
know
that
I
would
have
the
answer
to
that
question
right
now:
counselor
neil,
but
I'm
happy
to
look
into
it.
There
may
be
other
staff.
I
know
there
are
a
number
of
staff
that
have
been
involved
with
this
initiative
that
are
also
on
the
call
tonight
that
I've
been
a
lot
more
involved.
A
O
T
I'll
start
miss
mayor,
if
I
could,
and
and
maybe
miss
ultra
king
can
can
take
over,
so
the
stop
did
do
public
engagement
and
stakeholder
engagement
with
businesses
and
and
the
general
public.
As
for
council
direction
on
this
motion,
that
work
was
done
right
before
the
pandemic
hit
and
and
then
once
the
pandemic
hit
several
priorities
and
motions
of
counsel
needed
to
be
deferred.
T
Staff,
are
recommending
that
it
is
indeed
necessary
to
go
back
for
more
consultation
on
this,
because
all
that
work
was
done
before
the
pandemic,
and
that's
the
that's
the
recommendation
there.
There
were
several
concerns
raised
in
the
engagement
about
the
effect
it
would
have
on
on
business
on
several
businesses
and
again
that
was
that
was
before
the
the
conditions
of
the
the
pandemic
presented
themselves.
So
this
is
this
is
a
recommendation
from
staff
to
to
defer.
O
That's
what
thank
you,
okay.
I
I
totally
disagree
with
that.
So
this
is
a
special
case
where
we
have
public
consultation
and
we're
asking
individuals
for
their
particular
concerns
on
this.
We
are
stuck
in
a
framework
known
as
prisoner's
dilemma
when
an
individual
or
a
group,
a
business,
looks
at
us
and
we
ask
them.
How
is
this
going
to
affect
your
business?
Of
course,
they're
going
to
say
it's
going
to
affect
them
negatively.
O
O
Now
there
is
another
motivation
which
is
even
more
troubling
if
you
had,
as
I
saw
in
the
report,
there's
a
lot
of
people
who
felt
that
this
was
very
bad
for
their
business
if
they
are
motivated,
because
they
can
put
last
the
other
by
increasing
costs
to
their
competitor
and
then
drive
them
out
of
business,
that's
the
worst
form
of
competition
out
there,
and
that
may
also
be
one
of
the
motivations
of
there
for
saying
this,
I
think
this
is
really
easy
to
do
just
do
it.
It's
simple!
O
I'm
sure
that
the
clerks
could
have
the
ability
to
write
this
in
in
a
few
hours
at
the
most.
The
public
consultation
that
you're
doing
here
is
going
the
wrong
way
because
of
the
particular
structure
that
we're
in.
So
I'm
not
going
to
support
deferral
on
this.
I
think
you
should
just
write
it
and
get
it
done.
Thank.
A
A
I
would
like
council
to
think
about
the
restaurant
owners,
the
retail
store
owners,
those
in
the
downtown
and
other
parts
of
the
community
that
have
struggled
with
unprecedented
challenges
where
just
trying
to
keep
their
business
afloat,
trying
to
avoid
laying
off
their
employees
trying
to
just
make
ends
meet
over
the
last
year,
and
I
would
suggest
to
council
that
this
would
be
the
time
where
perhaps
we
should
keep
their
interest
and
their
livelihoods
front
and
center.
This
is
not
the
time
to
be
able
to
add
a
burden
to
the
small
business
community.
A
It
is
a
burden
and
we
can
debate
whether
or
not
it's
a
burden
where
the
costs
that
weigh
the
benefits
and,
to
be
honest,
yes,
as
has
been
mentioned,
this
was
passed
not
unanimously,
but
it
was
passed
back
in
2019.
That
was
a
very
different
world,
and
so
I
am
asking
council
to
please
support
this.
Let's
do
for
this.
Let's
give
our
small
businesses
a
chance
to
get
back
on
their
feet
first
before
we
start
to
throw
these
additional
challenges
at
them.
A
L
P
P
The
problem
here
is:
what's
the
connection
between
closing
doors,
to
sort
of
not
to
prolific,
to
prevent
the
wasting
of
air
conditioning
energy
and
being
in
business?
That's
not
demonstrated
here
anywhere
and
also
the
I
think,
there's
perhaps
a
misperception
here.
The
question
is
that
I
would
raise
is:
is
this
perception
by
the
businesses
that
that
responded,
negatively,
grounded
in
reality,
that
is,
is
walk-in
traffic
actually
affected?
P
P
P
Then
we
look
at
occasionally
and
there
could
be
a
lot
of
occasions
or
it
could
very
few
occasions,
that's
unclear.
Some
people
might
have
been
thinking
well,
I'll
just
be
on
the
safe
side.
I'll
keep
the
option
open,
right
and
27.6
said
occasionally,
add
all
those
more
or
less
negative
responses
up.
You
get
62
percent
of
all
businesses.
P
P
A
P
Okay,
so
the
concerns
here
are
about
you
know
putting
too
much
pressure
on
our
small
businesses
and
that's
fair
enough.
That's
a
fair
enough
concern,
and
so
my
amendment
addresses
that
by
saying,
okay,
let's
get
this
process
not
deferred,
but
proceeding
by
differentiating
between
a
bylaw
to
ask
for
a
mandatory
regime
and
allowing
for
a
voluntary
regime
in
the
interim
still
heading
towards
mandatory.
P
It's
been
with
us
the
whole
time
for
the
last
year
or
more
so,
and
so
I
think
what
a
couple
of
counselors
are
getting
at
is
hey.
We
need
to
move
along,
but
despite
what's
happened
and
we
can
see
the
end
more
or
less
of
x
number
of
months
hopefully-
and
it's
going
to
take
time
to
prepare
this,
so
I'm
just
looking
to
move
the
process
along
and
if
it's
voluntary,
if
somebody
really
objects,
they
won't
be
doing
it
really.
P
N
Thank
you
for
worshipping
through.
I
understand
what
councilor
hutcherson
hutcherson's
trying
to
do
here.
I'm
just
not
sure
that
it's
going
to
accomplish
what
we
hope.
So
I
guess
a
question
to
staff
would
be
I
I
believe
earlier
it
was
stated
that
there
was
still
more
time
needed
to
to
formulate
the
bylaw
and
to
kind
of
do
that
public
consultation.
N
So
is
this
amendment
really
going
to
change
the
timeline
of
how
we
get
to
the
end
goal
here,
which
is
basically,
at
the
end
of
the
day
we
like
businesses
to
cease
keeping
their
doors
open
while
their
air
conditioner
is
running.
I
I
think,
there's
a
couple
different
ways
to
get
there.
One
is
a
bylaw,
the
other
one
is
to
incentivize
them
to
close
their
doors
and
provide
some
benefit
for
those
that
do.
N
I
guess
my
first
question
would
be
is
passing
this
voluntary
bylaw,
which
kind
of
to
me
seems
I'm
not
sure
if
it
actually
is
going
to
accomplish
anything.
Is
that
going
to
affect
the
timeline
of
the
creation
of
the
actual
bar?
Will
it
still
be
going
through
the
same
emotions,
which
means
this
is
almost
the
redundant
amendment
in
a
sense.
A
A
P
A
T
T
So
if
council
were
to
direct
staff
to
to
do
something
voluntary,
we
would
need
to
dedicate
some
resources
to
preparing
that
and
getting
that
word
out,
but
the
the
direction
in
the
in
the
in
the
amendment
did
say
to
defer
the
preparation
of
the
actual
bylaw
until
2022.
As
per
the
the
motion
that
the
staff
brought
or
the
recommendation
staff
brought.
So
there
are,
there
are
voluntary
programs
and
that
could
be
the
direction
of
council.
T
A
N
Just
on
that
note,
mr
mayor,
so
I
would
I
would
if,
if
it's,
it
can't
really
be
a
bylaw
without
being
a
bylaw?
Can
we
propose
an
amendment
that
we
change?
The
word
wording
to
voluntary
program
that,
in
which
case
we
could
possibly
get
a
voluntary
program
up
and
running
right
up
until
the
bylaw
actually
occurs.
A
S
Thank
you,
and
through
mr
mayor,
so
to
cancer
beaum's
question.
Yes,
that
would
be
the
the
simplest
way
to
approach.
This
would
be
to
actually
change
a
language
to
a
voluntary
program,
because
bylaw
does
does
obviously
imply
that
it
is
a
requirement
and
that
we
will
enforce
and
penalize
should
people
not
be
implementing
the
bylaws.
So
what
we're
talking
about
here
is
a
little
bit
different.
So
voluntary
program
is
the
wording
that
we
should
be
utilizing.
E
Yeah
two
things
I'd
like
to
see
it
on
the
screen
and
also
I
would.
I
would
suggest
that
it's
still
out
of
order.
The
original
motion,
that
is
the
staff's
recommendation,
is
proposing
a
deferral
of
a
bylaw
and
so
to
change.
What
was
an
original
motion
from
from
a
bylaw
to
a
voluntary
program
seems
to
be
out
of
order.
A
H
A
A
So
I
would
agree,
except
if
the
amendment
is
to
clarify
it
is
a
mandatory
by-law
and
then,
if
the,
if
councilor
hutchison
accepts
the
wording
of
a
voluntary
program,
then
I
would
suggest
that
that
amendment
is
in
order
because
it
would
still
be
deferring
the
bala,
but
it
would
be
speaking
to
a
voluntary
program
so
based
on
that
ruling.
So
counselor
hutcheson
allow
the
amendment
if
you
are
amenable
to
changing
the
the
wording
at
the
end
of
your
amendment,
to
from
changing
it
to
voluntary
form
of
bylaw
to
voluntary
program.
A
P
P
Okay,
I
mean
I
just
wanted
to
say
that
I'm
not
sure.
I
accept
the
idea
that
you
can't
voluntary
action
under
a
bill,
but
I'm
trying
to
reach
a
principled
compromise
position
here.
So
can
I
ask
the
two
counselor
before
I
adopt
that
wording?
I'd
like
to
ask
two
questions,
one
each
of
counselor,
mclaren
and
counselor
neil,
as
do
their
unders
their
acceptance
or
non-acceptance
of
that
cheat.
A
P
A
No,
I'm
sorry
that
is
not
true.
I
do
allow
for
questions
of
the
mover
of
emotion.
I
can
answer
questions
to
counsel,
but
this
is.
This
is
a
different
scenario
than
that.
What
I
would
propose
is
that
we
go
with
the
wording
of
voluntary
program,
and
then
people
can
speak
to
that
amendment
and
give
their
their
respect
about
whether
or
not
that's
acceptable.
A
A
Right,
so
that
is
exactly
right,
and
this
goes
back
to
to
counselor,
holland's
or
deputy
mayor
holland's
point
of
order
that
you're,
as
is
written,
is
out
of
order.
However,
based
on
the
suggestion
of
counselor
bo.
If
we
change
that
wording
to
voluntary
program,
then
the
amendment
is
in
order
and
then
we
can
discuss
that's
okay,
okay,
all
right!
So
so
we
have
in
that
amendment.
N
Thank
you
for
worshiping
an
interview.
I
was
just
wondering,
and
this
might
help
with
some
of
those
rochester's
concerns
is,
can
we
have
the
wording
say
change
to
a
voluntary
program
in
anticipation
of
a
bylaw
or
something
that
affects
so
that
the
public
understands
that
it's
a
voluntary
program
at
this
point,
but
we
are
working
to
file
off
the
future.
We
may
just
give
everybody
a
heads
up
and
I
believe
there
was
actually
two
spots.
If
the
wording
was
up,
there
would
actually
need
to
be
changed
and
then.
A
Okay,
so
what
we're
gonna
do
is
we're
gonna
we're
gonna
put
up
the
wording
first
of
all,
I'd.
Rather
the
people
see
this
before
we,
I
don't.
I
don't
want
to
work
smith
further.
We
had
to
do
it
once
just
to
be
able
to
have
something
that's
in
order,
but
I
prefer
now
to
make
it
very
clear
what
it
is
that
we
have
in
front
of
us.
A
Okay,
so
what
I'm
going
to
do
is
I'm
just
going
to
read
then
what
that,
what
that
paragraph
would
now
look
like?
It
would
say,
the
council
direct
staff
to
further
defer
the
preparation
of
the
mandatory
by
law
to
prohibit
open
doors
and
windows
when
air
conditioning
is
in
operation
until
q2
2022,
and
that
staff
be
directed
to
proceed
in
the
interim
period
as
soon
as
possible,
with
a
voluntary
program.
A
N
O
O
T
T
We
will
need
to
partner
with
agencies
such
as
the
chamber
and
and
the
downtown
bia
sustainable
kingston,
we'll
be
asking
for
their
time
to
help
us
reach
out
to
their
memberships
and
and
yes,
there
are
several
benefits
for
cost
savings
and
energy
savings
with
with
this
program.
So
we'll
do
our
best
to
get
that
information
out.
There
are
some
example:
programs,
like
I
think
we
may
have
mentioned,
but
definitely
mentioned
in
the
report,
so
we'll
draw
some
from
lessons.
There
should
council
direct
staff
to
implement
a
voluntary
program.
O
Thank
you.
Those
are
important
reasons,
but
the
one
that
you
left
out
that
I
think
is
most
important
is
the
competition
policy
one.
May
I
ask:
if
do
you
understand
the
nature,
the
nature
of
the
prisoner's
dilemma
and
how
it
applies
here
and
if
you
don't,
could
I
ask
that
you
educate
yourself
on
that,
because.
T
C
C
We
have
direction
from
council
that
isn't
being
isn't
being
implemented
by
staff
and
that
that
is
continues
to
be
a
frustration,
and
I
appreciate
what
councilor
hutchison
is
attempting
to
do,
and
I'm
glad
that
he
left
in
that
this
wasn't
going
to
replace
the
motion,
but
the
deferral
is
still
there,
so
we
will
be
going
almost
for
a
full
term,
with
clear
direction
of
counsel
not
being
implemented
by
staff,
and
I
find
that
frustrating,
and
for
that
reason
I
won't
be
supporting
the
amendment.
Although
I
appreciate
the
intent
of
the
amendment.
A
U
Thank
you,
and,
and
through
you,
mr
mayor,
I'm
sorry
I
had
my
hand
up
earlier
in
the
conversation,
but
there
was
a
bunch
of
hands
up
all
at
the
same
time.
The
one
thing
I
just
wanted
to
to
provide
for
council's
benefit
that
may
help
to
address
some
of
the
concerns
about
the
deferral
is
there
needs
to
be
the
recognition
of
the
substantial
amount
of
work
and
resourcing
on
the
enforcement
side
we
needed
to
put
in
over
the
last
15
months
with
respect
to
covid
we're
doing
a
lot
of
work.
U
We
will
continue
to
do
a
lot
of
work.
We've
needed
to
staff
up
to
provide
additional
support
relative
to
the
different
pieces
of
legislation
to
meet
the
public
health
commitments,
and
also
the
expectation
of
our
constituents
and
the
other
component
to
this,
too,
is
that
this
set
of
bylaws
that's
being
discussed,
and
I
recognize
that
there's
a
discussion
here
about
a
voluntary
program
is
that
it
takes
a
lot
of
work.
People
on
the
ground
doing
this.
That
can
take
away
from
our
resources
that
are
allocated
to
priority
work.
U
So
it's
not
a
lack
of
willingness
from
staff,
but
also
a
capacity
issue,
and
my
team
has
been
working
even
though
we
don't
enforce
anything
related
to
idling.
That's
actually
the
parking
staff
that
do
that
the
parking
staff
have
been
working
to
step
up
and
help
my
staff
on
the
enforcement
of
all
of
the
covid19
protocols,
which
have
continued
to
increase,
and
our
service
has
increased
substantially
over
the
last
year
in
terms
of
the
amount
of
service
we're
providing
in
terms
of
the
seven
day
detail
from
one
what
was
once
a
five
day
detail.
U
So
it's
you
know
there
is
that
challenge
there,
and
there
was
a
question
about
that
earlier
in
the
process,
and
I
wanted
to
make
sure
that
I
could
provide
that
for
council's
benefit,
that
that
we
are
feeling
quite
constrained,
and,
as
mr
hugo
boss
indicated,
one
of
the
cornerstones
of
our
enforcement
approach
is
always
education
first,
so
certainly
as
part
of
any
program
whether
it
would
be
a
bylaw
or
a
voluntary
program
at
council's
direction.
Education
would
be
a
first
and
foremost
approach
to
make
sure
people
understand
what
we're
doing
and
why.
R
It's
just
adding
another
dimension
that
we
may
agree
with
or
may
not
to
to
a
file
that
has
already
been
deferred
and
the
intent
of
the
of
the
amendment
is
obviously
well
intentioned,
as
council
o'neil
said,
but
it
doesn't
actually
affect
the
direction.
The
original
direction,
which,
as
councilwoman
also
said,
is
a
direct
it's
direction
from
council
to
staff
that
is
not
being
followed.
Now
there
may
be
valid
reasons
why
enforcement
of
an
anti
open
doors
with
air
conditioning
running
by
law.
R
R
I
remember
this
debate
downtown.
I
remember
the
tavern
owners
and
the
restaurant
owners
saying
you
take
smoking
out
of
our
businesses
and
we're
going
to
go
under.
I
remember
that
very
clearly
pretty
much
every
place
that
serves
alcohol
with
saying
that,
and
there
was
unanimity
amongst
the
business
owners
and
yet
what
happened?
R
We
all
know
now
and
no.
It
would
be
unthinkable
to
think.
Oh
yeah,
you
could
smoke
in
a
restaurant,
but
that
used
to
be
commonplace
until
the
ban.
So
I
I
that's
what
I
consider
the
the
original
motion
to
be
addressing
the
idea
of
air
conditioning
the
open
space
with
in
the
middle
of
an
energy
crisis
is,
is
ridiculous
and
that's
what
the
original
motion
addresses
and
that
this
amendment
doesn't
address
in
any
way
the
voluntary
program
will
consume
extra
staff
time.
Q
Q
It's
just
the
variant
that's
spreading
around
you
know
by
law
has
had
so
much
put
on
top
of
them
because
of
kovid.
I
feel
sorry
for
them.
I
know
that
this
this
this
bylaw
was
very
important
back
in
2019.
I
know
it,
I
get
it.
We
had
a
very
hot
summer.
It
was
hard
to
see
all
those
doors
open
but,
like
our
mayor,
said
right
now
is
the
wrong
time
to
bring
this
on.
However
unfortunate
it
is
to
wait
until
the
year
2022,
so
and
also
with
the
voluntary
program.
Q
You
know
that
we're
talking
about
with
this
amendment
like
that,
takes
a
lot
of
staff
time
as
well
like
how
for
the
businesses
that
will
be
closing
their
doors
as
part
of
this
voluntary
program.
We'll
have
to
do
placards
right,
like
we'll,
have
to
do
signs
for
this
voluntary
program
so
that
whatever
business
does
intentionally
close
their
doors.
You
know,
can
then
advertise
that
they're
doing
this
for
the
climates
like
that,
that's
going
to
cost
money
and
then
that's
going
to
cost
time.
Time
is
money.
Q
A
Thank
you,
so
I
do
have
still
have
a
couple
speakers
to
the
amendment.
I
just
want
to
clear
clarify
you
will
have
a
chance
to
speak
to
the
main
motion
once
we
deal
with
the
amendments,
so
we
can
just
try
to
direct
you
really
to
whether
or
not
to
include
the
the
voluntary
program
with
the
with
the
default.
So
next
on
my
list
is
deputy
mayor
hall.
L
H
H
That
we're
based
on
the
bridge
of
the
original
motion
and
that
the
bylaw
is
going
to
be
introduced
at
some
stage,
hopefully
very
soon.
So
the
question
is
about
the
amount
of
time
and
the
burden
to
staff,
because
I
also
hear
that
loud
and
clear,
but
I
just
wonder
if
the
chamber,
or
in
kedko
and
sustainable
sustainable
kingston
how
they
can
help
our
local
businesses
move
in
the
right
direction.
Now,
because
this
bylaw
is
definitely
coming.
T
Just
use
the
real
hand,
sorry
thank
you,
counselor
doherty
and
through
you,
mr
mayor,
so
I
understand
the
question.
Like
I
said
like
I
said
we
will
definitely
reach
out
to
our
partners,
because
the
voluntary
program
and
a
future
bylaw
would
would
be
would
be
there
for
for
all
business
across
the
city
and
it
that's
it's
a
wide
net
to
cast.
So
we
do
need
partners,
we
need
social
media.
We
need
to
get
to
get
the
word
out
and
and
support.
T
Those
partners
are
definitely
very
taxed
right
now,
with
with
lots
of
work
to
do
to
support
businesses.
I
do
think
there's
a
willingness
here
in
the
in
the
engagement
feedback
either
there
are
several
concerns
and
we
will
work
through
those
and,
like
I
said
earlier,
we
do
need
to
go
back
and
engage
with
business,
because
a
lot
of
businesses
have
changed
their
model
now
because
of
the
pandemic.
T
That
said,
I
just
do
want
to
clear
the
air.
The
staff
is
committed
to
council's
motion.
We
we
will
bring
something
back
to
council.
It
was
my
opinion
as
staff
to
make
this
recommendation
to
council
to
defer
another
year.
I
think
the
staff
have
worked
very
hard
to
engage
and
to
there
was
some
preparation
done
before
the
pandemic.
T
Back
in
back
in
2020,
there
will
be
more
work
to
do
to
bring
a
bylaws
should
this,
whether
this
motion
pass
or
the
new
or
the
next
motion,
the
amendments
if
it
is
deferred
until
2022,
there's
still
lots
of
work
to
do.
But
it
is
not
something
we
we
like
to
do
to
say
the
council.
We
don't
want
to
implement
what
you're
doing
it's
a
deferral,
because
we
are
recognizing
the
times
and,
as
commissioner
agnew
said,
the
the
resourcing
capacity
that
we
have
for
for
enforcing
a
bylaw.
T
No,
so
sorry,
if
it's
the
will
of
counsel
to
to
direct
to
do
a
voluntary
program,
we
will
do
that
as
soon
as
possible.
As
per
the
the
motion
to
amend,
there
are
examples
out
there
of
these
programs,
but
we
will
need
to
rely
on
partners,
and
those
partners
are
also
very
busy
right
now,
so
how
well
we
can
do
it
right
away.
I
I
don't
know
to
be
to
be
completely
honest
with
you:
it's
not
something
that
we'd
be
able
to
roll
out
in
a
couple
weeks,
but
there
are
good
examples.
T
P
P
P
P
Well,
we
have
done
some
good
things.
I
think
so
it's
it's.
It's
not
a
clear
landscape,
one
way
or
the
other,
but
this
was
one
of
the
things
we
thought
we
we
could
do,
and
so,
when
my
my
amendment
agreed
to
amendment
withdrawal
council
bone
was
that
I
think
we
need
to
show
people
and
we
need
to
actually
move
the
dial,
and
so
I'm
asking
council,
we
voted
on
this
and
we
we're
pursuing
it.
We
need
to
show
we're
moving
the
dial
and
that's
what
I
that's.
P
A
A
A
P
But
there's
a
point
in
with
political
responsibility
where
you
have
to
ask
yourself:
are
we
getting
there
and
this
doesn't
send
the
right
signal,
and
so
I
was
hoping
to
get
away.
We
could
move
forward
not
but
that's
been
defeated,
so
I'm
left
with
the
original
motion
and
I
will
not
go
for
it.
Thank
you.
N
N
Are
they
gone?
Okay,
open
the
door?
I
I
think
it's
educating
businesses-
and
this
actually
will
speak
a
little
bit
about
some
clearance
point
where
we
should
make
businesses
realize
that
the
smart
thing
to
do
the
best
business
decision
is
to
run
with
your
doors
closed,
because
that's
going
to
mitigate
so
many
different
factors,
and
it's
also
going
to
cost
you
less
money
at
the
end
of
the
day
and
if
we
can
show
them
that
it
doesn't
reduce
the
foot
traffic
and
show
all
the
benefits
that
can
come
with
it.
N
I
think
that's
a
much
better
approach
in
grand
scheme
of
things,
though
I
will
support
this
deferral,
and
one
of
the
reasons
is
is
that
I
do
want
close
goals.
I
also
don't
want
permanently
closed
doors
and
I
feel
like
if
we
don't
do
this
in
conjunction
with
the
business
community,
there's
a
real
risk
that
some
people
just
kind
of
see
this.
N
All
these
things
we're
trying
to
do
everything
we
can
to
support
them
through
this
time,
and
we
can't
just
pick
one
thing
and
pretend
that
colbit
didn't
happen
and
we
are
in
the
midst
of
the
third
wave
of
it,
and
we
don't
know
how
this
is
gonna
pan
out,
so
I
mean
to
to
really
drop
this
on
them.
At
this
point
I
mean
it
could
possibly
undo
all
the
work
we've
done
until
this
point
to
support
them.
N
R
Thank
you
worship,
so
I
I
made
some
points
earlier
to
the
amendment
that
also
apply
here,
but
just
for
the
interest
of
brevity,
keep
it
simple
look
either
either
running
your
air
conditioning
with
open
doors
is
a
good
idea
or
it's
not
in
the
opinion
of
this
council.
It
was
not.
That
was
why
we
got
so
many
votes
in
favor
of
of
an
outright
ban
from
the
original
motion.
R
Now
you
can
you
it's
one
thing
to
pass
the
council
motion
and
it's
quite
another
thing
to
have
staff
implement
a
by-law.
So
that's
what
we're
we're
hitting
bumps
in
the
road
with
the
actual
nuts
and
bolts
of
the
by-law.
That's
what
they're
hearing
loud
and
clear
from
staff-
and
I
would
I
would
say
that
if
you
follow
pure
logic,
that
that
was
always
going
to
be
the
case
with
bylaw
of
this
nature
and
that
pandemic
or
no
pandemic,
there
there's
a
significant
amount
of
work.
R
If
you
want
a
bylaw,
that's
going
to
be
effective
on
on
this,
but
what
we
can't
do
is
give
the
appearance
that
when
we
hit
those
bumps
in
the
road
we
can
kick
the
can
down.
The
road,
because
that's
exactly
what
all
the
the
major
interests
have
done
with
climate
change
for
the
last
30
years,
that's
what
has
always
been
the
case
on
every
effort
of
any
kind
to
be
good
to
the
environment.
R
R
I
don't
believe,
and
if
there
was
maybe
it
was
unrealistic,
but
this
work
needs
to
continue
and
it
needs
to
continue
under
the
current
circumstances
and
once
the
pandemic
is
over,
we'll
actually
be
back
to
very
similar
circumstances,
as
were
before
the
pandemic.
As
far
as
who
is
allowed
to
go
to
businesses
and
who's
not
and
whether
or
not
air
conditioning
blowing
in
your
face
on
a
summer
day
attracts
you
into
the
store
or
not,
and-
and
you
know
the
pandemic's
not
going
to
change
that
reality.
D
D
L
Thank
you,
mayor
patterson,
and
thank
you
councillor
chappelle,
for
that.
I
I
think
I
supported
this
back
then,
but
the
more
we
talk
about
it,
the
more
frustrating
I'm
I'm
feeling
that
we're
here
and
talking
about
this
and
probably
being
the
only
businessman
on
council
that
actually
has
doors
that
I
have
to
have
closed
or
if
they're,
open
or
if
they're
closed.
I
I
have
my
heating
or
cooling
able
to
shut
down.
So
you
know
businesses
are
smarter
than
this,
and
I
just
think
that
we
should
move
on
and
accept.
L
L
The
percentages
are
very,
very
small,
that
you
know
that
are
not
going
to
you
know
you
could
do
it
as
a
volunteer
and
yourself
just
go
door-to-door
and
ask
business
to
put
a
sticker
on
their
windows
and
not
cost
our
city,
any
money
and
be
a
you
know,
a
thorn
to
our
businesses
that
just
I'm
almost
embarrassed
for
this
bylaw,
because
we
always
want
to
hide
it
behind
climate
change
and
all
that
our
businesses
do.
An
awful
lot
have
made
so
many
changes.
L
I
think
that
we
should
just
I'll
say,
call
the
question
mayor
patterson,
but
let's
be
supportive
of
our
of
our
businesses
and
that
they
they
know
what
they're
doing
and
they
they
don't
want
to
pay
the
high
bills
and
they
recognize
their
responsibilities
very,
very
well,
and
so
I
just
think
that
we
should
respect
the
staff
at
this
situation,
understanding
that
everybody's
doing
their
best
in
a
very
difficult
time.
Thank
you.
A
A
H
Thank
you
and
through
you,
mr
mayor,
look,
we
often,
and
almost
it's
been
a
real
frustration
for
anyone
who
cares
about
action
on
climate
change,
that
the
economy
always
seems
to
trump
climate
change,
and
the
reality
is
just
because
we
have
a
pandemic
doesn't
mean
climate
change
has
gone
away.
In
fact,
it
hasn't,
and
it's
escalating.
H
H
H
Why
aren't
bylaws
here
and
there
and
absolutely
everywhere
at
the
moment,
and
I
think
we
cannot
ignore
staff's
concerns
and
keep
loading
them
up
with
extra
work
and
also,
I
would
hate
to
see
the
signs
that
we
already
have
a
lot
a
lot
of
businesses
that
are
going
to
close
because
the
pandemic,
and
now
we're
asking
them
to
close
the
doors
which
is
really
important.
And
I
hope
that
we
can
do
something
that
to
encourage
the
doors
to
stay
to
to
close
when
air
conditioners
are
on.
H
But
we
don't
want
any
doors
to
to
to
close
permanently
and-
and
I
think
the
message
to
our
local
businesses
that
employ
local
people.
We
want
them
to
know
that
we
support
them,
so
we're
going
to
ask
them
friendly
to
please
close
their
doors
in
the
in
the
summer
when
the
air
conditioner
is
on.
But
I
am
very
reluctant.
I
can't
support
forcing
this
on
them
at
this
stage.
So
I'm
I'm
reluctantly,
but
I
am
going
to
vote
for
the
deferral.
E
Thank
you,
worship
and
I'll.
Just
take
one
moment
to
speak
to
the
public
engagement
part
of
this
conversation.
The
we've
talked
about
a
number
of
different
variables.
I
haven't
gotten
the
impression
from
the
reporter
from
any
of
the
discussion
tonight
that
there's
just
any
one
thing:
that's
really
at
play
here,
but
a
lot
of
complicated
variables
and
most
of
them
relate
it
to
the
timing.
E
Therefore,
deferral
does
seem
appropriate
and
I
think
mostly
in
terms
of
engagement,
because
if
we
are
looking
for
education,
then
then
that
requires
businesses
to
be
a
part
of
the
conversation
about
reducing
emissions
and
all
of
that
and
that's,
I
think
that
work
is
really
valuable
and
I
want
to
see
it
happen,
and
I
think
that
was
a
part
of
the
original
motion.
You
know
yeah.
We
we
want
to
see
the
outcome,
but
we
also
want
to
see
to
see
that
work.
E
You
know
in
a
bigger
picture
in
the
community
and
I
think
the
you
know
the
fact
that
the
doing
a
survey
right
now
and
getting
input
right
now
from
businesses
is
a
terrible
idea.
We
honestly
don't
even
know
which
ones
will
exist
and
that's
a
horrible
thing
to
even
think,
but
the
discussion
isn't
so
much
around
bottom
line
versus
climate,
it's
about
like
practically
speaking.
How
do
you
figure
out
a
way
forward
when
we're
in
such
a
strange
moment
for
our
businesses
in
the
city?
A
A
H
A
So
so
deputy
the
deputy
clerk
actually
had
your
vote
in
favor,
so
I'm
not
so
I
think
I
think
we
did
catch
some
time
in
general,
though,
to
your
question
buttons.
If,
if
that
happens,
I
mean
sometimes
that
technology
has
happened
even
when
we
were
in
person
in
council
chambers,
so
we
can
always
do
a
revoke,
but
I
think
in
this
case
count:
okay,
thanks.
Okay,
great
any
discussion
on
clause,
3,
community
investment
fund,
2020
funding
recommendations,
yes
councillor,
stroup.
R
R
A
H
Thank
you
and
through
you,
mr
mayor,
I
wonder
if
we
could
yeah
hear
a
little
bit
about
the
criteria.
I
was
not
that
particular.
I
was
just
wondering
why,
for
example,
the
ymca
received
funding
for
an
hvac
system
and
and
addiction
of
mental
health
was
turned
down
at
a
time
when
we
have
so
many
concerns
regarding
mental
health,
so
it
just
and
I'm
sure
that
there
was
a
good
reason
for
it.
But
I
just
wonder
if
we
could
here
have
a
bit
more
of
an
explanation
regarding
the
criteria.
W
X
X
They
also
need
to
fit
within
the
city's
strategic
planning
goals
and
also
the
united
way
priority
areas
which
are
from
poverty
to
possibility
and
making
the
community
better
for
children
and
there's
a
third
one,
not
off
the
top
of
my
head.
I
can't
remember
what
it's
called
I'm
sorry,
but
the
community
investment
fund
uses
volunteers,
so
the
the
criteria
are
weighed
against
the
application
on
paper
and
then
the
people
applying
also
do
presentations
to
the
committees.
Obviously,
this
year
we
did
them
all
by
zoom.
X
So
to
answer
your
question
in
terms
of
why
one
and
not
the
other,
it
was
a
combination
of
the
quality
of
the
proposals,
the
impact
it
was
going
to
have
as
described
by
the
proponents
and
also
the
presentations
that
they
did.
So
all
those
things
are
weighted
and
the
outcome
is
before
you
tonight.
There
were
no
proposals
that
the
committee
felt
should
be
funded,
but
we
didn't
have
enough
money
to
fund.
A
S
Thank
you,
mr
mayor,
and
I
through.
I
just
wanted
to
add
to
to
your
question
and
your
concerns.
Counselor
dorothy.
In
terms
of
the
the
mental
health,
I
completely
agree
that
it
is
a
challenge
and
a
significant
service,
as
we
have
been
going
through
kobe
19..
So
I
just
want
to
point
out
that
council
did
approve
additional
funding
for
2021
for
social
services
as
it
relates
to
try
to
better
address
some
of
the
needs
and
impact
of
cobin
19.
A
H
Responsibilities,
thank
you
and
through
you,
mr
mayor,
just
I
want
to
thank
staff
for
the
detailed
report
and
and
giving
information
on
18
different
municipalities.
I
thought
that
was
really
great
and
I
just
wonder
when
the
report,
the
more
detailed
report
goes
to
committee.
If
you
could
also
include
what
kind
of
rating
each
municipality
has
for
the
standard
and
poor
kind
of
rating
and
how
they
compare
just
want
to
get
an
indication
of
their
financial
management.
Y
Thank
you
through
you,
mr
mayor,
so
yes,
we
can
certainly
take
a
look
at
that.
Some
of
the
municipalities,
particularly
the
ones
that
we
have
listed
there,
some
of
the
smaller
ones,
do
not
have
a
credit
rating.
They
choose
not
to
do
that,
but
certainly
for
the
ones
that
do
we
can.
We
can
find
out
what
those
are
and
include
that
information.
A
A
H
Dory
thank
you
and
through
you,
mr
mayor,
I
wonder
if
we
can
change,
I
think
it's
yeah.
It
is
0.7.3
7.3,
where
it
states
that,
when
we
have
special
events
that
we
will
give
four
weeks
notice
and
that
that
would
be
amended
to
six
to
eight
weeks.
If
that
is
possible,
we
heard
earlier
about
the
the
importance
of
obviously
meeting
they're,
offering
the
dates
when
during
the
growing
season,
but
if
maybe,
if
we
could
stretch
it
to
six
day
six
weeks,
that
would
be
better
for.
A
S
Thank
you
and
through
you,
mr
mayor,
so
I
know
this
has
been
a
topic
of
conversation
actually
through
our
various
consultations
that
we've
had
for
this
particular
change
to
the
bylaw.
So
the
bylaw
currently
provides
for
one
week
notice
period
and
and
that's
been
in
place
for
a
number
of
years,
actually
the
one
week
notice
period.
S
So
in
trying
to
find
some
balance
and
what
we
heard
from.
Obviously
the
film
office
is
that
when
we
get
into
six
to
eight
weeks,
it
becomes
very
challenging
to
be
able
to
attract
any
kind
of
filming
activity.
If
we
have
that
kind
of
time
frame.
So
the
four
week
is
something
that
that
they
felt
was
doable
and
we
also
looked
at
it,
as
you
know,
actually
moving
the
needle
from
one
week
to
four
weeks,
which
is
is
substantial
in
terms
of
a
change
for
the
notification
period.
S
I
do
want
to
point
out
that
we
have
made
some
changes
as
well
in
terms
of
the
way
that
the
film
office
works
with
the
the
vendors
on
the
market.
So
I
recognize
that
a
number
of
years
ago
there
there
wasn't
maybe
the
type
of
collaboration
that
there
is
now,
and
we
saw
that
actually
recently,
with
the
lock-in
key
production
that
took
place
in
the
square.
I
believe
it
was
during
the
fall,
so
I
I
would
be
reluctant
to
to
see
a
change
there.
S
H
So
is
it?
Is
it
possible
to
ask
the
the
film
office
to
notify
even
earlier
than
four
weeks,
if
at
all
possible
like
because
I'm
sure
when
you
there
are
productions,
you
probably
most
the
time,
know
way
beforehand
that
the
production
is
coming
into
town
right?
So
so,
but
perhaps
all
effort
can
be
made
to
to
have
it
actually
longer?
You
know
longer
warning
than
four
weeks.
A
S
S
I
I
can
tell
you
having
been
involved
with
with
some
of
the
last
minute
production
that
have
taken
place,
not
necessarily
in
the
square,
but
at
kingston
penitentiary
over
the
last
year,
some
of
them
would
would
get
decided
within
a
two-week
period.
So
it's
not
it's
not
always
something
that
you
know
a
very
long
time
before
the
the
production
actually
comes
into
town,
sometimes
they're.
Their
decisions
are
last
minute.
L
A
A
L
It
did
recognize
the
two,
the
two
areas,
the
urban
and
the
rural
area,
which
was
very
helpful,
and
I've
actually
had
the
farming
community
reach
out
to
me
and
and
express
thanks
for
that
kind
of
thing
so
that
they
could
actually
do
their
the
work
they
needed
to
do
and
do
we
actually
have
one
of
the
fire
chiefs
here
we
do.
Okay,
I
don't
see
okay,
hello,
mr
fire,
chief
armstrong.
How
are
you?
L
Z
Through
your
worship,
we
were
able
to
increase
the
size
of
a
rural
fire
substantively
and
anything
that
was
in
excess
of
that
size
was
also
subject
to
the
potential
for
an
inspection.
So
we
were
very
flexible
with
the
rural
fires
and
we
wanted
to
make
sure
that
it
was
just
being
conducted
in
the
safe
way.
Z
L
That's
excellent
and
I
just
wanted
to
reiterate
what
I've
heard
through
the
rural
community
and
the
appreciation
from
rural
advisory
to
and
coming
twice
and
that
kind
of
engagement
and
recognizing
the
differences
between
the
urban,
the
rural
area
and
embracing
that
and
facilitating.
That
was
commendable,
and
I
want
to
thank
you
for
the
work
that
you've
done.
D
Z
Obviously,
as
was
raised
in
the
arts,
reputation
at
the
arts
committee
was
really
around
the
fire
if
it
was
becoming
a
nuisance
to
the
neighbor,
we
would
certainly
have
a
visit
and
try
to
resolve
that
issue
in
in
a
way
that
was
flexible
and
would
seek
compliance
through
voluntary
measures.
However,
if
the
fire
continued-
and
it
was
a
nuisance-
no
matter
whether
it
was
in
a
approved
container
or
or
just
in
a
fire
pit,
it
would
certainly
make
that
enforce
that
compliance
and
make
that
fire
go
out.
N
You're
worshiping
through
you,
I
just
want
to
thank
chief,
you
and
your
team
for
for
the
effort
on
this.
I
know
that
there
was
quite
a
bit
of
consultation
and
I
was
wondering
if
you
could
just
touch
on
what
seems
to
be
a
preference
coming
from
the
community,
which
is
that
there's
always
the
education
component.
First,
in
any
changes
on
this,
I
was
wondering
if
you
just
briefly.
Z
Part
of
our
appraisal
in
the
bylaw
through
your
worship
was
really
the
the
fact
that
you
can't
have
a
fire
in
the
community
without
establishing
a
bylaws.
So
the
council
of
municipality
needs
to
establish
a
bylaw.
That's
that
permits
these
types
of
fires.
Obviously,
we've
had
past
internal
practices
that
has
allowed
informally
fire
since
2013..
Z
Having
said
that,
we
understand
that
there
will
be
a
period
of
time
where
we'll
work
with
the
community
to
transition
towards
a
a
deeper
understanding
of
the
requirements
in
both
the
rural
zones
and
the
urban
zones
of
the
city
of
kingston,
and
we
look
forward
very
much
look
forward
to
that
engagement
with
the
community,
I'm
very
proud
of
staff.
They
they
did
12
weeks
of
public
engagement
and
we
were
aided
by
cultural
services
and
communications
and
customer
experience
staff.
Z
An
unintended
consequence
of
of
the
covet
19
pandemic
was
that
more
people
were
at
home,
enjoying
their
properties
and
having
these
types
of
fires,
which
increased
almost
doubled.
Our
our
responses
to
complaints
so
that
we
feel
that
this
bylaw
will
not
only
be
a
vehicle
for
compliance,
but
a
vehicle
for
education,
and
we
intend
to
do
that
over
the
next
year.
N
Chief,
I
know
that
any
changes
is
naturally
resisted,
but
this
is
a
testament
to
how
you
change
properly,
and
you
can
do
a
great
job
on
that
on
behalf
of
the
community.
I've
had
so
many
different
comments
that
have
been
passed
and
they
truly
enjoyed
the
process
and
that
they
really
bought
into
the
process
that
they
brought
forward
here.
A
A
P
W
W
So
obviously,
you
know
the
kind
of
the
the
shift
from
moving
from
really
needing
all
the
different
pieces
and
pieces
of
paper
and
and
the
signatures
to
really
kind
of
working
with
clients
and
looking
at
the
needs
of
the
clients
and
and
moving
away
from
the
administrative
burden
which
will
be
really
moved
to
to
the
provincial
level.
Again,
it's
it's
really.
W
In
the
midst
of
rolling
out
pieces
and
you've
been
seeing,
you
might
have
been
reading
in
the
reports,
various
tools
and
and
and
kind
of
initiatives
that
were
rolling
out,
ranging
from
electronic
document
management
to
implementing
other
digital
solutions
to
digital
payments.
So
those
are
all
pieces
that
that
come
into
play
with
that
rollout.
W
Thank
you
and
through
you,
mr
patterson,
thank
you
for
clarifying
that.
So
it's
the
risk
of
obviously
the
the
social
assistance
that
the
the
allocation
payments
and
its
eligibility
determination
so
again
and
you've
seen
in
the
appendices
of
the
report
as
well.
The
various
numbers
of
caseloads
and
the
various
income
levels
that
that
we
provide
to
people
in
receipt
of
social
assistance.
So
it's
the
eligibility,
determination
and
and
the
way
that
the
eligibility
is
determined
and
again
utilizing
more
digital
tools
to
to
do
that.
P
P
W
Thank
you
yes,
so
thanks
for
clarifying
and
through
you,
your
worship
that
is
correct
as
you
as
in
the
report
we've
indicated,
there
are
already
there's
already
a
pilot
and
a
roll
out
of
a
more
centralized
intake
process
of
people
applying
for
social
assistance
on
a
provincial
level
and
there's
a
first
kind
of
layer
of
eligibility.
That's
happening
on
the
provincial
level.
If
there
is
more
of
a
complicated
file,
then
that
still
might
com
will
come
to
the
local
level
to
to
work
through
the
eligibility
check.
W
But
yes,
there
are
there's
really
a
move
towards
some
kind
of
more
administrative
pieces
moving
towards
the
provincial
level.
So,
on
a
local
level,
we
can
actually
focus
on
the
on
the
life,
stabilization
and
case
management
work
and
really
focus
on
supporting
our
clients
in
their
stabilization
and
their
system.
W
Thank
you
for
that
question
and
to
you
mayor
patterson,
so
the
one
thing
that
we
know
based
on
a
few
of
the
service
managers
that
have
been
part
of
the
employment
transformation
pilots
and
are
a
little
bit
ahead
of
us.
We
have
seen
a
reduction
in
some
of
the
funding
for
those
pilots,
but
that
was
really
because
the
employment
kind
of
component
was
most
moved
out
of
their
deliverables.
W
We
again,
as
identified
in
the
report,
have
not
received
any
specific
financial
kind
of
information
for
our
allocation,
but
we
and
and
again
we
are
based
on
the
many
conversations
we
have
with
other
service
managers
and
and
the
broader
kind
of
system.
Vision
of
the
of
the
province
are
looking
at
more
of
a
shift
of
how
we're
doing
business
and
really
be
focusing
the
work
on
working
with
clients
and
moving
away
from
more
of
the
administrative
work
we
don't
like
us,
like
I
just
kind
of
refer
to.
P
E
Thank
you,
your
worship,
so
a
few
questions.
I
guess
so
that
there
it
is
rather
it's
an
area
that
is
rather
heavy
with
the
jargon
and
it's
so
just
trying
to
clarify
for
the
sort
of
end
user.
To
borrow
some
more
jargon.
What
would
it
look
like
for
someone
entering
into
say,
362,
montreal
street
and
looking
for
support
under
this
new
system?
What
would
our
people
be
doing
and
what
would
the
expectations
of
the
client?
What
should
those
expectations
be
when
they
walk
in
the
door.
W
Thank
you
for
that
question
and
to
you
mayor,
patterson.
Well,
first
of
all,
apologies
for
the
york
jargon,
there's
lots
of
acronyms
and
will
not
quiz
you
on
those.
So
we
are,
I
mean,
I
think,
we're
quite
excited
about
kind
of
the
vision
of
this
social
services
renewal
process,
because
I
think
it
is
really
focusing
on
integrative
service
integrating
services
on
better
access
on
different
access
of
services.
W
We
also
want
to
make
again
the
administrative
burden,
much
more
straightforward,
so,
for
instance,
having
to
come
into
the
office
to
sign
paperwork
is
something
that
we
really
obviously
want
to
move
away
from
and
utilizing
the
digital
tools
and
have
a
two-way
kind
of
way
of
communicating
with
clients
through
a
centralized
system
and
again
catering
to
the
various
needs.
Because
no
client
has
the
same,
you
know
needs
some.
W
Obviously
this
will
be
a
phased
roll
out,
but
ideally,
at
the
end
of
this,
when
we
have
implemented
this
fully,
the
idea
is
that
we
also
will
be
able
to
support
every
client
in
the
community
that
is
in
in
some
sort
of
of
needs
or
crisis.
So
it
does
not
necessarily
have
to
be
a
client
that
is
eligible
for
social
assistance.
W
So
I
think
it's
really
again
looking
at
that
wraparound
approach,
where
we
can,
as
staff,
really
help
to
navigate
the
system,
access
the
various
elements
of
the
system
and
not
ask
clients
to
have
you
know,
share
their
stories
multiple
times
with
multiple
staff,
either
within
the
city
or
at
other
agencies
and
and
again
the
last
piece
is
really
kind
of
again,
focusing
on
that
system,
navigation
and
support
and
focusing
less
on
checking
off
the
different
boxes
of
needs
for
paperwork
and
next
steps.
I.
E
Yes,
it
does
and
thank
you
and
I
I
know
that
the
jargon
does
not
it's
not
it's
just
industry
specific.
It
has
nothing
to
do
with
anyone's
desire
to
use
it
here,
but
the
yeah.
Actually
that
did.
That
was
a
great
response.
The
question-
and
you
even
set
me
up
for
my
next
one,
which
was
about
ticking
of
boxes,
so
there's
always
a
fine
line
in
the
social
service
field,
between
accountability
for
public
funds
and
the
frontline
experience
of
having
to
demonstrate
outcomes
and
close
cases
etc.
E
W
E
Actually
more
the
first
question
and
like
if
you
have
a
sense
of
what
that
will
be
and
whether
it
looks
like
it
will
be
an
onerous
process.
Not
even
it's
not
so
much
about
whether
how
onerous
it
is
for
staff.
It's
that
it.
If
it
is
problematic
if
it
becomes
the
end
goal
to
you
know,
it
seems
that
there's
a
suggestion
here
that
more
time
is
needed
for
many
clients
to
to
be
employment
ready,
but
that
so
that
recognition
seems
to
be
apparent
in
the
report.
W
Thank
you
and
to
you
mayor
patterson,
thanks
for
clarifying
the
the
things
we
know
at
this
point
is
is,
and,
as
you
can
appreciate,
life
stabilization
is
a
pretty
a
big
kind
of
term
and
and
incorporates
many
things
from
supporting
clients
with
basic
needs
and
life
skills
and
health
and
overall
community
support.
So
we
don't
have
a
really
clear
kind
of
list
of
sets
of
items
that
we
would
need
to
to
check
off
to
your
points
and
again,
we
I
do
think
that's
a
little
bit
premature
at
this
point.
W
The
one
kind
of
table
that
that
we
sit
at
is
obviously
the
47
service
manager
table
where
these
kind
of
conversations
are
rolling
out.
We
are
again
looking
at
some
of
our
other
partners
that
are
rolling
out
their
employment
transformation
and
have
started
with
some
of
the
life
stabilization
work
really
in
a
pilot
model
to
see
you
know
what
that
looks
like
so,
unfortunately,
at
this
point
I
cannot
give
you
any
specifics
on
these.
Are
the
outcomes
or
timelines
or
for
basic
needs?
We
need
to
do
these
five
things
and
for
health.
W
These
are
the
five
things
the
the
one
thing
as
well,
and
I
think
this
makes
the
process
actually,
quite
I
think,
positive
and
and
and
tailor-made
to
to
the
communities.
Service
managers
also
seem
to
have
some
local
discretion
in
how
to
roll
some
of
these
pieces
out.
So
there
will
certainly
be
outcomes
and
expectations
and-
and
I'm
sure,
we'll
be
back
in
counts
in
council
to
to
update
you
on
those
when
we
have
a
little
bit
more
unders
of
an
understanding
of
those
as
well.
A
H
Thanks
so
yeah
thanks
for
the
report,
so
I
had
similar
questions
to
counselor
hutchinson,
but
you
answered
them
really
well,
there
is
one
really
serious
question,
which
is
a
real
concern
for
our
community
and
on
tyrion's
across
ontario.
Who've
lost
their
jobs
during
the
pandemic
and
exhibit
c
of
the
report
states
that,
when
federal
benefits
and
end
on
tyrians,
who
remain
out
of
work
are
likely
to
turn
to
ontario
works.
Now
ontario
works
for
a
single
individual,
which
locally
is
62
percent
of
recipients.
H
The
basic
allowance
is
303,
plus
another
390
totaling
733
dollars
for
shelter
costs
and
a
one-bedroom
apartment
in
kingston
is
1200
so
and
that
wouldn't
necessarily
include
electricity
or
utilities,
not
to
even
mention
that
people
have
to
have
food
and
other
necessity
necessities
of
life.
So
affordability
is
an
issue
that
we're
all
aware
of
and
more
people
have
lost
jobs
due
to
the
pandemic,
and
also
we've
had
recent
announcement
of
300
people
losing
their
jobs
at
star
tech.
W
It
certainly
is
something
again
that
that
we
are
thinking
about
locally
as
much
as
we
can
provide,
I
mean.
Obviously
we
are
bound
to
provincial
guidelines
for
income
limits,
etc,
but
it's
certainly
something
that
I
think
we
have
to
be
aware
of
and
need
to
try
to
to
to
problem
solve
again.
I
think
it's
it's.
It
is
really
a
combination
between
the
various
elements
of
of
the
departments
between
or
of
the
corporation,
even
between
our
housing
and
our
social
services
kind
of
portfolios.
W
A
Okay,
thank
you.
So
we
will
continue
on.
I
didn't
see
any
questions
for
information
report
number,
so
we
will
move
on
to
number
five
2020
statement
of
remuneration
and
expenses
paid
in
council
members
number
six
gender
and
contract
awards,
subject
to
the
established
criteria
for
delegation
of
authority
for
the
month
of
january
2021
answer
ship
out.
D
G
Through
your
worship
and
thank
you
for
the
question,
there's
actually
two
awards:
one
is
to
peach
free
forward
and
one
is
to
kia
canada.
So
the
kia
canada
award
is
for
any
vehicles
for
electric
vehicles
and
the
ford
award
is
for
any
vehicles
that
operationally
the
electric
vehicles,
just
specifications
of
them
won't
meet
the
needs
so
some
trucks
and
things
like
that
in
our
light
duty
fleet.
So
that's
why
we
have
two
separate
awards.
D
I'm
looking
in
in
all
of
the
bell
mobility
costs
and
I
know
that
we
recently
had
all
the
motorola
requests
in
the
budget.
Some
increased
cost
with
regards
to
financing
the
communications,
yet
I've
got
maintenance
for
a
wireless
ps2
radio
system,
ongoing
wireless
full
site
safety
program,
monitoring
again,
there's
this
kingston
fire
and
rescue
cat
annual
support
to
bell
canada,
lots
of
money-
and
I'm
just
wondering
why
doesn't
this
come
into
the
budget
or
is
this
part
of
the
budget?
Now
is
coming
out
as
an
expense
because
we
passed
the
budget
in
january.
A
V
D
Year
and
then
my
final
question
with
regards
to
expenses
that
came
through
a
flood
remediation
idea,
if
I
really
drive,
this
is
a
building
that
we
purchased
and
we've
continued
to
put
in
money,
a
substantive
amounts
of
money.
So
two
questions,
one
is
this:
can
can
you
describe
what
that
remediation
was
related
to
and
two
are
we
does
this
function
all
this
building
yet?
Is
it
being
utilized
yet.
V
V
So
all
the
work
that
happened
out
there
was
to
remediate
that
very
quickly
to
prevent
mold
and
mildew
from
occurring
in
me
and
the
spaces
there,
and
the
intention
is-
and
certainly
ruth
could
probably
speak
to
this
a
bit
more.
But
the
intention
is
that
that
site
could
be
used
as
an
isolation
center
for
individuals
that
need
that
space.
W
D
W
S
A
Okay,
we
have
no
information
reports
from
members
of
council
miscellaneous
business
number
one
that,
as
requested
by
tiffany
coomber
ian
potts
foundation,
that
council
proclaimed
november
2021
as
complex
regional
pain
syndrome
awareness
month
in
kingston.
Can
I
have
a
mover
and
a
seconder.
Please
move
by
councillor
chappelle
seconded
by
deputy
mayor
holland,
all
those
in
favor
opposed
and
that's
carried
number
two
that
is
requested
by
natalie
lintner
aprixia
kids
council
proclaim,
may
14th
2021
as
aprixia
awareness
day
in
kingston,
and
I
have
a
mover
and
a
secular.
A
A
A
Natural
burial
cemetery
therefore
be
resolved
at
the
council
of
the
city
of
kingston
direct
staff
to
review
best
practices
from
other
municipalities
on
the
establishment
of
a
natural
burial
cemetery
within
the
city
of
kingston,
but
based
on
the
findings
and
or
new
research
required
that
city
staff
investigate
the
establishment
of
a
natural
burial
site
within
a
city
owned
or
privately
owned
cemetery
and
report
back
to
council
in
q4
2021,
okay,
councilor
hutchison.
You
have
the
floor.
P
We
you
can
see
what
the
tenets
are
there
and
essentially
people
would
be
buried
in
biodegradable
materials
and
in
perhaps
a
tree
planted
over
them
wildflowers
planted.
The
point
is
that
they
would
be
in
that
naturals
wouldn't
involve
chemicals
or
other
toxic
materials
and
the
person
could
or
their
family
could.
You
know
have
them
there,
and,
and
they
would
basically
whack
at
the
earth
and
and
support
the
environment
around
them,
and
so
this
is.
P
P
P
Answer
questions
it
might
be
more
clarifying,
but
essentially
left
with
a
park
of
sorts
that
could
be
used
by
people
on
much
more
easily
than
say
is
cemeteries
as
you've
done
now.
It's
not
indicating
any
negative
approach
to
other
customs
or
traditions.
People
may
have
it's
just
about
supplying,
possibly
another
option.
Thank
you.
A
P
D
A
P
H
Thank
you
and
through
you,
mr
mayor,
I
just
want
to
thank
the
mover
of
the
emotion
and
the
seconder
I
actually
heard
from
quite
a
few
residents
in
my
district
who
are
really
really
supported,
and
we're
really
excited
to
hear
about
this
because
it
does
mean
a
lot
to
them.
So
I
just
want
staff
and
everybody
to
hear
that
people
in
our
community
do
want
this
to
move
ahead.
So
thank
you
very
much.
Q
Thank
you,
worship.
I
just
want
to
acknowledge
that
green
burials
is
a
new
idea
like
well,
it
might
be,
it
looks
like
it
was
been
around
for
a
while
in
the
united
states,
but
me
personally,
I've
never
really
heard
of
this
until
very
recently,
and
then
you
know
right
after
christmas,
we
started
to
get
emails
about
it,
and
I
do
know
that
some
residents
are
very
excited
about
the
prospect
of
green
burials.
I
might
be
green.
Q
I
think
this
is
too
green
for
me,
but
you
know
acting
on
behalf
of
the
residents
who
are
interested
in
it.
Then,
at
the
very
least,
the
report
should
be
very
educational,
get
the
word
out,
and
just
like
many
years
ago,
not
many
people
were,
you
know,
did
cremation.
It
was
still
a
standard
funeral.
You
know
being
buried
six
feet
under
in
a
casket.
Now
cremation
is
happening
all
over
the
place.
A
lot
more
commonplace,
maybe
green
burials,
will
be
very
commonplace
too
in
the
near
future.
