Description
Agriculture and Rural Affairs Committee meeting – May 3, 2018 – Audio Stream (Part 2 of 2) -
Part 1: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LwvJXkRwz9U
Agenda and background materials can be found at http://www.ottawa.ca/agendas.
A
A
Former
speaker
talked
about
the
traffic
situation
further
north
as
a
result
of
all
this
development
and
south
to
Torito,
and
it
included
the
extension
of
Earl,
Armstrong
I
think
we're
suffering
a
little
bit
because
of
that
at
this
time,
and
I
would
not
like
to
see
development
to
go
ahead
without
having
the
appropriate
infrastructure.
So
what
does
that
mean?
We
can't
really
open
the
DMV
with
in
terms
of
it
updated
until
2020
I
believe
it
is
2018
2019
we
start
on
it.
A
I
think
there
is
a
case
to
be
made
because
I've
had
previously
identified
the
urgent
need
to
do
the
the
the
roadwork
that
I
just
mentioned
much
earlier.
There
may
be
an
opportunity
to
ask
counsel
to
provide
an
opportunity
to
open
up
the
TMP
to
have
these
particular
provisions
accelerated
that
we're
all
talking
about.
We
have
now
opportunity
for
additional
funding
to
be
brought
into
this
equation,
to
make
it
affordable.
A
B
A
D
C
E
University
students
are
back
so
that
and
the
weather
is
still
nice
so
that
we
can
capture
the
walking
and
cycling
modes.
So
that
has
to
be
done.
Data
collection
verification,
so
it
takes
a
while.
So
the
TMP
itself,
we
are
looking
at
some
doing
some
background
work
now,
but
the
actual
start
to
the
TMP
you
won't
likely
be
until
sometime
in
two
2020
and
I
think
I.
E
D
E
F
Mr.
chair,
my
understanding
is
that
Bank
Street
is
identified
as
a
project
in
the
DCE
background
study,
and
that
is
a
project
that
is
able
to
be
moved
forward
via
front
ending
agreements.
The
earl
armstrong
extension
is
not
identified
in
the
DC
background
studies,
so
that
would
have
to
get
introduced
into
that.
There's
the
potential
to
do
that
next
year
in
May
of
2019,
when
we
would
come,
have
to
come
back
with
a
new
DC
bylaw.
So
that's
something
that's
definitely
in
play,
but
at
this
point
in
time
Earl
Armstrong's
not
in
there.
G
There
may
be
a
change
to
our
version
of
the
transportation
master
plan
as
a
result
of
the
extension
of
the
Trillium
Line
at
a
much
more
rapid
pace
than
it.
The
current
TMP
envisions,
and
that
is
obviously
going
to
need
to
have
some
impact
on
road
infrastructure,
as
the
motion
approved
by
council
to
evaluate
extending
the
Trillium
Line
so
faster,
specifically
said
language
about
prioritizing
transit
over
road
infrastructure.
In
order
to
accommodate
that
accelerated
extension,
so
I'm
wondering
how
can
we
advance
a
DC
project,
that's
in
the
TMP
today.
G
E
C
H
Thank
you
welcome,
thank
you.
Thank
You,
mr.
chairman
Thank
You
members
of
the
committee,
so
I'm
Jeff,
Hooke
I'm,
the
executive
vice
president
of
development
and
marketing
for
Hard
Rock
I've
been
with
the
company
for
about
10
years.
In
fact,
this
month,
ten
years
and
I've
been
in
the
industry
for
24
years
and
in
the
last
10
years,
I've
seen
the
hard
rock
business
grow
from
about
a
hundred
and
thirty
three
Hard
Rock
venues
in
45
countries
to
a
two
hundred
twenty-five
venues
in
75
countries.
So
the
Hard
Rock
is
a
big
business.
H
It's
not
a
big
casino
business,
necessarily
so
of
those
225
venues.
Only
11
are
related
to
casinos,
so
we've
really
known
more
for
entertainment
and
that's
the
way
we
think
about
this
project,
we're
thinking
about
a
entertainment
destination
here
that
has
a
casino
in
it
as
well,
and
when
you
look
at
the
components
that
we're
talking
about
today,
those
are
really
more
related
to
the
things
we
want
to
put
around
the
casino.
H
So
we're
continue
to
expand
in
in
emerging
markets.
We
certainly
love
Ottawa.
We
think
Ottawa's,
strong
and
growing
economy
makes
an
attractive
destination
for
companies
like
ours
to
create
jobs
and
stimulate
growth
and
driving
tourism.
We
pride
ourselves
on
being
a
strong
community
partner
in
our
experience,
partnering
with
strong
and
local
businesses
key
to
our
success,
so
we
really
only
owned
about
75
venues
of
the
225
and
we're
in
local
partnerships
and
a
hundred
and
fifty
different
venues
and
those
partnerships
all
look
different
and
that's
really
an
approach.
H
That's
worked
well
with
us
to
combine
our
breath
and
our
global
business
expertise
with
local
business,
savvy
and
community
knowledge
and
relationships.
So
when
we
were
presenting
with
the
opportunity
to
bid
on
the
privatization
for
the
OLG,
we
were
thrilled
to
partner
with
Andrew
and
team
through
the
Rideau
Carleton
Raceway,
mainly
due
to
their
deep
roots
in
the
community.
So
over
the
last
fifty
five
years,
we
believe
that
they've
demonstrated
a
strong
commitment
to
the
local
community
to
horse
racing
industry
and
really
to
develop
a
sustainable
business
model
with
an
eye
for
growth.
H
So
together
you
know.
Luckily,
we
put
together
a
winning
strategy
and
we
were
selected
as
the
preferred
proponent
for
Ottawa
area
gaming
Buttle.
It
offers
us
an
opportunity
to
invest
in
the
project
that
we're
going
to
talk
about
today
and
pending
approval
of
the
zoning
application,
our
joint
investment
of
over
318
million.
Although
I've
heard
350
a
few
times
today,
we're
talking
about
318
million
that
allows
us
to
really
develop
a
dynamic
tourism
destination,
so
this
destination
will
combine
the
heart
and
the
soul.
The
hardrock
brand
so
features
the
best
in
live
music.
H
When
you
hear
about
the
Hard
Rock
Live,
Music,
Venues
gaming
entertainment,
we
want
to
add
a
hotel,
obviously
to
house
customers
at
the
same
time.
Enhancing
the
horse-racing
program
and
gaming
features
that
ottawa's
Ottawa
residents
love.
So
so
our
application
today
is
really
limited
to
four
things.
One
is
the
addition
of
a
hotel.
H
It
should
be
one
more
reason
to
love.
Auto
one
when
it
comes
to
tourism,
so
we're
sincerely
committed
to
acting
as
strong
corporate
citizens
as
well
and
we'll
do
this
by
ensuring
responsible
gaming
practices
and
that
we
meet
those
and
that
also
we
work
our
philanthropic
efforts
that
hard
rock
is
known
for
worldwide
here
in
this
community.
H
So
we're
proud
participants
when
it
comes
to
responsible
gaming
of
the
top
award
for
responsible
gaming
in
the
United
States
through
the
American
Gaming
Association,
which
is
the
corporate
social
responsibility
award
for
our
leadership
in
champion
treatment,
as
well
as
therapeutic
support
to
those
who
need
assistance,
we're
committed
to
working
with
the
olg.
So
we
have
a
very
strong
relationship
right
now
with
the
OLG.
We
think
they
do
a
responsible
gaming
truly
at
a
cutting-edge
level
and
we're
learning
from
them
some
of
of
their
ideas.
H
We
want
to
work
with
the
City
of
Ottawa,
the
Ottawa
Public
Health
and
the
entire
community
to
ensure
they're
responsible
gaming
destination
here
in
Ottawa.
In
addition,
from
Hard
Rock's
perspective,
we
have
a
deep
commitment
to
corporate
philanthropy
and
that's
really
helped
us
to
support
local
communities
wherever
we
operate
as
an
example.
Our
hard
rock
heals
foundation,
funds
locally,
driven
music
programs
in
2016
the
foundation
gifted
over
1.3
million
dollars
to
charitable
causes
around
the
world,
including
more
than
30
grants
to
community
driven
music
programs.
H
As
a
member
of
the
Ottawa
community,
we
are
committed
to
continuing
and
enhancing
both
the
Hard
Rock
and
Rideau
Carleton
raceways
heritage
of
supporting
local
education,
nonprofit
charitable
and
community
programs.
Our
joint
partnership
is
committed
to
developing
world-class
facility
while
ensuring
the
highest
standards
of
customer
service
and
responsible
any
practices
are
met.
We
look
forward
to
becoming
part
of
the
Ottawa
community
and
the
business
industry
for
years
to
come.
Thank
you
for
your
time,
saying.
D
H
H
D
C
And
should
just
on
that,
should
there
be
initiative
to
increase
in
the
future.
I
know.
Counselor,
harder
and
I
worked
on
a
motion
that
will
comment
council
to
ensure
that
all
future
decisions
on
the
number
of
gaming
gaming
tables
would
come
to
council.
It
wouldn't
be,
it
would
be
a
will,
be
a
council
decision
that
would
increase
that
in
the
future.
Councillor
Therese
thank.
I
You
both
for
being
here
I,
really
appreciate
the
partnership
that
you
brought
out.
Community
I
will
be
miss
if
I,
don't
personally,
thank
both
of
you
at
taking
the
time.
I
know
you're
busy
and
you're
traveling
everywhere,
you're

from
Florida
to
visit
with
us
this
next
few
days
and
mr.
Wright

and
your
father-in-law

proud

me
sitting
here
and
speaking
on
behalf
of
Rideau
Carleton
I,
know
your
dedication
and
your
support,
our
local
community.
I
Since
1972
redo
cut
and
it's
been
great
great
corporate
season,
our
community,
we
were
looking
forward
to
keep
forwarding
working
with
this
partnership
and
I
will
be
missed.
If
I
don't
mention
most
of
the
speaker.
They
come
here
today
because
of
the
the
hard
work
that
Ledo
cartons
been
working
with
the
community
I
don't
want
to
miss.
There
is
so
many
letter
of
support
and
I
know
thank
for
them
that
they're,
not
gonna
old
speaker
will
be
here
all
day.
I
wanna
name
a
few
as
good
Youth
Association.
I
We
got
the
Falcon
Ridge
Golf
Course

their
owner
mr.
sprat

He
is
also
your
neighbor.
These
are
they

South,
Community
Association.
We
have

from
Ottawa

really
Community
Association

The
communitisation

collaborating
with
all

community

supporting
our
community

our
city.
We're
going
to
thank
you
for
these
for
being
a
great
partner
and
continuing
support
all
community.
Thank.
E
D
So
I
think
I
have
a
couple
questions.
One
is
I
just
wanted
to
say.
Thank
you
for
well,
but
let
me
start
by
saying
that,
obviously
blossom
Park
there's
a
heightened
sense
of
concern
about
the
traffic
that
shortcutting
through
that
residential
neighborhood
and
the
shuttles
were
also
short
cutting
through
that
residential
neighborhood
and
I
spoke
to
mr.
sterling
about
it,
and
he
they.
They
have
now
been
rerouted
onto
a
more
appropriate
route.
But
I
just
wanted
to
ask
mr.
sterling.
J
Thank
You
mr.
chairman,
councillor,
Dean's.
Absolutely
when
we
became
when
I
became
aware
of
the
fact
that
the
shuttles
were
using
portions
of
Albion,
we
made
the
request
that
they
reroute
they
have
rerouted
and
we
will
undertake
to
ensure
that
they
stay
off.
That
stretch
of
Albion.
That
you're
concerned
about.
Thank.
D
You
I
really
do
appreciate
that,
and
the
other
thing
is
just
on
the
motion
that
councillor
de
Roos
has
introduced
on
my
behalf
about
the
ATM
I
just
wanted
I
received
a
letter
signed
by
Richard
Gardner,
a
director
of
Treasury
from
Vito
Carlton
Raceway,
because
you
know,
and
basically
I'm
just
gonna
read
a
little
bit
of
it.
This
hard
rock
understands
that
the
city
will
be
undertaking
in
an
area
traffic
management
study
for
our
being
Road
between
bank
and
Leicester.
D
If
this
traffic
study
recommends
Road
or
other
modifications
or
improvements
to
deal
with
traffic
concerns
arising
from
the
expansion
at
the
Albion
Road
site,
Hard
Rock
Casino
Ottawa
will
consider
in
good
faith
funding
the
reasonable
cost
of
such
improvements
or
modifications.
So
I
just
wanted
publicly
for
you
to
acknowledge
that,
to
the
extent
that
there's
traffic
impacts
resulting
from
the
expansion
at
Rideau
Carleton
that
your
client
is
willing
to
enter
into
negotiations
with
the
city
to
implement
traffic
area
traffic
management
modifications.
D
J
Correct
councillor
Dean's,
we
we
have
been
working
with
staff,
has
been
touched
on
today
on
a
number
of
transportation.
It,
through
issues
with
respect
to
the
area,
were
aware
of
conversations
with
you
and
others
with
respect
to
the
requirements
for
the
area,
traffic
management
study
and,
as
we've
indicated
in
writing
to
you,
we
are
prepared
to
participate
in
that
study
and,
where
appropriate,
work
with
the
city
and
staff
on
implementing
some
of
the
recommendations
of
the
study.
Thank.
D
K
K
My
name
is
Andrew
Wright
I'm,
a
director
of
Rideau,
Carleton
and
obviously
a
partner
with
with
Geoff
hook
in
the
Hard
Rock
and
apprised,
and
obviously
this
expansion
request
is
near
and
dear
to
my
heart.
My
father-in-law
warren
armstrong
opened
Rideau
Carleton
over
fifty
five
years
ago,
and
it's
a
passion
of
his
and
my
family
to
watch
it
grow
over
the
years
in
1962
the
vision
was
to
develop
a
unique
standard
bred.
Harness
racing
has
included
the
the
five
eighths
track.
K
K
It
really
was
a
cutting-edge
thing,
obviously
for
Ottawa
ON
for
the
nation's
capital
and
over
the
years
we've
worked
to
create
a
sustainable
model
for
racing
in
Ottawa
and
we've
always
looked
for
opportunities
to
modernize
our
offering
our
offering
and
programming
our
facilities
in
2000.
As
it's
been
mentioned,
the
provincial
government
introduced
slots
for
racing.
It's
really
two
for
the
eighteen
tracks
in
Ontario
to
save
the
racing
industry
it
was
on,
he
was
on.
K
The
province
in
2012
announced
the
opportunity
to
modernize
gaming
and
driving
on
private
sector
sector
expertise
and
innovation,
and
we
at
Rideau
Carleton
recognized.
This
was
our
chance
to
further
further
improve
our
horse-racing
programming
and
have
elevate
the
entire
entertainment
experience
for
our
customers
in
our
minds.
Ottawa
deserves
a
state-of-the-art
entertainment
destination
as
much
today
as
it
did
in
1962.
K
In
our
search
for
partner
with
gaming
expertise,
hard
rock
became
the
clear
choice.
Not
only
is
it
a
global
iconic
brand,
one
with
a
proven,
proven
track
record
success
and
equally
important
to
me
their
corporate
values,
their
honesty,
integrity
and
professionalism
were
very
complimentary
to
the
legacy
that
war
in
arms
are
established
at
Rideau,
Carleton.
K
Also
critical
to
us
was
Hard
Rock's
understanding
of
the
horse
racing
industry.
They
have
a
couple
facilities
in
the
US
where
they've
got
good
experience,
and
this
gave
us
further
confidence.
Our
partnership
at
Hard
Rock
will
ensure
the
lasting
legacy
of
horse
racing
in
Ontario.
Excuse
me
in
Ottawa
our
successful
bid
for
the
Ottawa
gaming
bundle
has
allowed
us
to
work
with
Hard
Rock
to
develop
an
expansion
plan
that
will
create
an
entertainment
destination.
Ottawa
resins
residents
can
be
proud
of.
The
expansion
project
will
generate
significant
benefits
for
the
City
of
Ottawa.
K
Much
of
these
have
been
touched
upon,
but
let's
go
through
them
and,
of
course,
our
rural
economy
and
the
province
of
Ontario.
We
anticipate
that
the
future
home
of
Hard
Rock
Ottawa
will
recapture
much
of
the
estimated
62
million
dollars
that
Ottawa
area
residents
and
tourists
spend
across
the
river
in
Quebec
at
their
gaming
facility.
So
that's
a
positive,
obviously
for
the
province.
In
addition,
the
expansion
project
will
help
us
create
a
sustainable
business
model
for
generations
to
come
and
will
continue
to
create
jobs
for
rural
Ottawa
and
beyond.
After
phase
3
is
complete.
K
K
Our
history
of
being
a
good
community
supporter
is
important
to
my
family
and
our
partnership
and
I
warn
Armstrong's
dedication.
This
hasn't
been
mentioned
before
we've
been
greatly
encouraged
by
the
voices
of
support
from
major
Ottawa
organizations,
including
Ottawa
Chamber
of
Commerce,
invest
Ottawa,
the
Shaw
Centre
Ottawa
tourism
in
the
UI
Centre.
In
addition
to
the
many
local
community
organisations
George
that
you
referenced
improvements
under
phase
1
are
already
underway.
K
We
continue
to
upgrade
the
look
and
feel
inside
the
track,
as
well
as
enhancements
inside
the
buildings,
as
well
as
enhancements
to
the
track.
As
a
member
of
the
Ontario
standardbred
alliance,
we're
working
with
our
industry
partners
and
stakeholders
to
ensure
we
are
delivering
improved
efficiencies
for
the
horse
racing
business
and
John
mentioned
the
increased
handle
of
it
over
just
the
last
couple
months
and
the
provinces,
the
Ontario
province
of
Ontario,
is
recent
announcement
to
commit
to
a
long
term.
K
Our
strong
our
strong
ties
with
community
neighbors,
our
loyal
employees,
who
a
couple
of
nice
enough
to
come
today,
have
been
the
utmost
importance
of
Rideau
Carleton
Raceway,
and
they
will
continue
to
be
at
the
future
home
of
Hard
Rock
Ottawa.
We
take
great
pride
in
the
strength
of
our
relationships
with
residents,
community
associations
in
its
article
and
local
businesses,
and
that's
really
what
this
application
is
all
about.
It's
about
modernizing
our
business,
our
facility
and
the
entertainment
options
for
the
people
of
Ottawa.
We
want
to
create
something
we
can
all
be
very
proud
of.
K
J
J
First
of
all,
thank
you
for
your
time
today.
Obviously
we're
here
in
support
of
the
report
and
the
recommendations,
but
I
just
want
to
state
for
the
record.
This,
as
everyone
knows,
is
a
very
well
known
application.
It's
it's
received
a
lot
of
attention.
We
have
been
working
with
the
staff.
The
ward
councillors,
members
of
the
community
on
this
application
and
I
want
to
express
our
appreciation
to
John
Schmitt,
Hamelin,
Colin,
Simpson
and
other
members
of
the
staff
who
participated
in
our
open
house
in
evenings
have
answered
our
questions.
J
I
would
like
to
say,
we've
answered
their
questions,
but
at
times
I
think
we've
been
pretty
frustrating
for
them.
Trying
to
answer
their
questions,
but
certainly
working
with
the
staff
has
resulted
in
a
report
which,
obviously
the
applicants
can
support.
We
look
forward
to,
hopefully
the
committee
and
council.
K
J
C
D
Have
been
interested
in
ensuring
that
we
have
reasonable
public
transit
to
this
site
and
the
applicant
has
decided
to
continue
running
a
shuttle
service
from
the
greenberg
station.
So
my
question
to
you
is:
would
it
be
possible
to
add
that
shuttle
service
into
the
city
of
Ottawa's
transit
planners
so
that,
if
I'm
coming
from
bar
Haven
or
Orleans
or
anywhere
else,
and
want
to
find
my
way
to
the
Rideau
Carleton
facility
that
it
would
I
could
do
a
trip
plan
plan
on
the
transit
planner.
B
Mr.
chair,
yes,
we
believe
that's
possible.
It'll
depend
on
cooperation,
of
course,
with
the
owner
of
that,
an
operator
of
that
service.
What
information
they
can
feed
us?
What
formats
in
weather,
we
can
incorporate
it
into
our
database
properly.
There
might
be
limitations
on
on
the
depth
of
the
information,
because
it's
not
integrated
right
into
our
own
operating
and
control
system,
but
we
would
go
as
far
as
we
can
with
the
technology.
We
have
it
with
the
information
we
have
so.
D
D
D
My
understanding
from
the
city
solicitor
is
that
that
would
be
possible
for
the
tables,
but
it
would
not
be
possible
for
slots,
because
unless
there
was
a
cap
embedded
into
the
zoning
bylaw
and
the
number
of
slots,
their
council
would
be
loath
to
put
a
cap
on
it.
So
could
you
could
legal
just
confirm
that.
C
D
C
C
I
B
Chair
the
question
I
was
asked
is
whether
we
could
integrate
information
about
the
service
that
they
would
be
operating
at
their
cost
into
the
information
we
provide.
We
can
do
that
integration
within
our
current
budget
if
there
were
any
large
investment
required.
Of
course,
we
would
think
approval
for
that.
F
Mr.
chairman,
we're
not
looking
at
expanding
the
urban
transit
area.
I
think
the
system
that
Hard
Rock
has
put
in
place
with
the
the
shuttle
services
has
been
working
and
I.
Think
if
we
can
get
that
integration.
This
councillor,
Dean
suggestion
in
terms
of
information
that
would
be
conveyed,
I
think
is
really
where
we
want
to
go.
I
mean
the
expansion
of
transit
in
the
urban
expansion
area
really
needs
to
be
dealt
with
as
part
of
an
urban
expansion
process,
and
that's
not
part
and
parcel
of
what
we're
doing.
How.
G
F
G
B
G
G
That's
largely
based
on
advice
from
staff,
though
so
I'm
saying,
if
we're
going
to
be
having
a
large
commercial
expansion
in
a
rural
area
and
we're
talking
about
enhancing
service,
to
integrate
it
to
a
private
shuttling
system
and
as
a
result,
residents
are
now
much
closer
to
rapid
transit
than
they
ever
were
before.
How
can
we
continue
to
justify
a
disparity
of
treatment
between
residents
in
one
part
of
the
city
and
the
rest
in
terms
of
how
much
they
pay
in
taxes?
Mr.
B
G
C
A
D
I
just
want
to
see
if
your
words
about
all
of
this
and
then
I
do
have
some
broader
concerns
about
the
whole
expansion
of
gaming
at
this
site.
But
I'm
not
going
to
talk
about
that
today,
because
what
I
really
want
to
talk
about
today
is
mostly
transportation
and
transit
and
access
to
that
site
and
the
impact
that
it
has
on
all
of
our
local
communities
and
I
want
to
say
that
you,
mr.
D
chair
and
councillor
de
Roos
and
councilor
caucus
and
the
city
staff
and
the
proponent
we've
all
worked
I
think
really
hard
together
to
try
and
make
sure
that
this
is
as
as
good
as
it's
going
to
be,
because
I
think
we
all
recognize
that
this
is
going
to
pass
and
so
for.
The
people
that
I
represent
I
have
to
make
sure
that
their
lives
are
not
adversely
impacted
to
the
extent
possible
by
the
increase
in
traffic
to
the
site.
So
to
that
and
I
think
it's
really
important
that
we
recognize
that
highway.
D
31
at
Bank
Street
is
a
more
appropriate
front,
entranceway
to
a
new
and
expanded
gaming
facility
than
Albion
road,
which
was
never
intended
to
carry
that
type
of
traffic.
So
embedded
in
the
report
is
a
recommendation
to
de-emphasize
the
Albion
Road
entrance
and
I
agree
with
that.
I
think
that's
very
important.
It
will
be
very
important
to
the
people
in
blossom
Park.
Also.
D
I
think
the
other
part
that
will
be
very
important
is
to
make
sure
that
Bank
Street
is
the
new
entrance
and
that
we
have
expanded
capacity
on
Bank
Street
to
deal
with
the
increase
in
traffic
and
I
recognise
that
the
South
End
is
growing
rapidly
and
that
the
road
infrastructure
just
is
not
there
even
now.
So,
with
the
expansion
of
gaming,
there
is
just
going
to
exacerbate
the
problem,
so
I
do
think
that
the
holding
zone
is
an
appropriate
thing
to
place.
D
So
as
long
as
they're
going
to
continue
to
run
a
shuttle
service
from
the
green
Burroughs
station,
I
think
that
the
transit
planner
will
be
important
to
assist
people
in
getting
there
and
regardless,
where
you
live
in
the
city
that
you
can
find
your
way
through
using
transit
services
as
opposed
to
driving.
And
you
know
this
kind
of
use
it
does
and
to
promote
drinking
lets,
people
go
and
have
dinner.
They
go
to
a
show.
D
They
they
go
to
race
track,
they
have
a
drink,
they
the
casino
they
have
a
drink
and
I
think
that
we
want
to
make
sure
that
people
can
use
other
forms
of
transportation
other
than
the
car
and
a
driver
when
in
a
facility
like
that,
so
I
think
it
will
be
very
important
to
work
that
out.
So
with
that
said,
I
would
just
say
that
a
lot
of
the
concerns
I
have
I
believe
through
this
process
and
through
the
good
faith
that
this
staff
of
shone
and
councillor
jurors
has
shown,
and
you,
mr.
D
C
C
L
Seen
both
legal
here
and
it's
the
time
to
ask
them
a
question
so
councillor
of
the
roost
moving
a
motion
here
on
behalf
councillor
Dean
and
I
I.
Don't
want
to
take
that
as
the
issue
here,
but
in
the
future
can
we
do
something
in
government,
maybe
the
new
term
of
counsel.
If,
if
a
council
wants
a
motion,
we
move
about
something
and
then
they
vote
against
that
altogether,
that'd
be
possible.
The
motion
will
be
defeated
automatically
because
I
find
it.
L
L
C
Thank
you
so
to
go
through
the
three
more
so
just
I'll
personally
just
go
through
the
last
resolution
of
each
so.
The
first
motion
site
plan,
site
plan,
alteration,
sorry
sight,
duration,
that's
a
whole
nother
thing
for
later
I
was
combining
two
things:
their
site
alteration
their
site
plan,
I,
just
stuck
them
together.
C
All
right,
so
that
echoes
real
fares
can
be
recommend
the
council
direct
staff
to
undertake
community
consultations
for
any
future
site
plan
control
applications
and
that
these
consultations
include
public
meetings
organized
by
the
applicant
in
collaboration
with
staff
and
the
ward
councillor
and
which,
by
request
of
another
ward
councillor
by
mutual
agreement,
may
occur
outside
the
local
ward.
On
that
on
that
motion,.
C
On
the
infrastructure
improvements
motion,
counselor
caucus
through
counselor
des
rues,
you
resolved
that
prior
to
submission
of
the
zoning
bylaw
to
counsel
the
general
manager,
planning
infrastructure,
economic
development
confirm
to
the
mayor
and
members
of
council
that
a
letter
from
Hard
Rock,
Casino
Ottawa
has
been
received.
That
provides
a
commitment
from
Hard
Rock
Casino
to
work
with
staff
area,
counselors
and
other
landowners
on
improvements
in
infrastructure
that
assists
in
approving
local
traffic
conditions.
C
The
final
motion
on
the
area-
traffic
management
study
from
councillor
Dean's
through
councillor
de
Roos
be
resolved
that
the
following
recommendation
be
out
of
the
staff
report.
The
transportation
services
be
directed
to
undertake
an
area,
traffic
management
study
for
Albion
Road
between
bank
Street
and
Leicester.
In
2019,
notwithstanding
the
council
approved
screening
and
prioritization
process
for
ATM
studies
that
$75,000
in
funding
for
the
area.
C
C
And
on
the
reports
in
itself
that
the
echoes
Rural,
Affairs
Committee,
recommend
council
approving
amendments
she's,
owning
bylaw,
2008,
2,
5
0,
to
define
casino
and
to
amend
exception
5
to
8
are
for
48:37
albion,
road
and
4910
Bank
Street
by
adding
a
hotel
with
a
nine
story,
high
limit,
permitting
55
gaming
sales
for
a
casino
and
put
and
to
put
in
place
a
holding
provision
as
detailed
in
documents
2,
3
and
4,
and
to
that
I
Kosovo
fairs
committee
approve
the
consultation
details
section
of
this
report.
So
on
the
report,
as
amended
carried.
C
So
on
to
item
number
six,
which
is
a
site
alteration
bylaw,
those
that
ran
Tenon's
last
month,
they'll
recall
that
we
did
deal
with
this
last
month,
but
we
referred
it
back
to
committee
through
council
to
make
some
some
changes
to
the
language,
to
clear
up
some
issues
surrounding
section
10,
which
is
now
the
new
section
11
and
also
on
the
agricultural
exemption,
and
we
just
I
just
want
to
introduce
a
motion.
We
do
have
two
speakers
on
it.
I
do
want
to
choose
this
motion.
First,
it's
it's
from.
L
Therefore,
be
it
resolved
that
staff
amend
section
2
of
the
draft
boy
law
to
you,
the
same
warden
about
the
preservation
of
normal
farm
practice
as
a
farming
and
food
production,
Protection
Act
in
1998
such
a
warden
been
disloyal
or
shall
not
apply
to
restrict
a
normal
farm
practice
carry
on
and
a
part
of
the
agriculture
operation.
That's
what
the
motion
is
mr.
chair,
as
we
heard
from
the
folks
from
the
farmer,
community
and
I,
believe
you
were
engaged
that
enforced
with
them
via
male,
and
this
is
a
result.
I
think
staff
will
support.
C
C
This
is
just
alternate
wording
that
the
committee
I
feel
it's
more
comfortable
with
in
the
bylaw
going
forward
and
I
feel
addresses
the
concerns
more
appropriately
from
what
we
heard
previously
from
from
delegations
here
last
month
and
from
the
community
as
a
whole.
Throughout
the
throughout
the
conversation
that
we
had
I,
don't
did
you
want
to
do
a
much
if
there's
need
for
presentation,
I
think
this
no
I
think
the
folks
here
we're.
D
N
C
N
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
Just
a
quick
intervention
you'll
recall,
perhaps
from
the
last
meeting
that
one
of
our
main
concerns
I'm
Paul
Johannes,
with
the
green
space
Alliance
by
the
way,
and
so
one
of
the
main
concerns
that
I
brought
up
at
the
last
meeting
of
Iraq
on
this
was
the
issue
of
the
pre-emptive
clearing
of
woodlands
in
the
immediate
vicinity
of
the
urban
boundary.
This
is
something
that
I
think
all
agreed
was
something
that
we
want
to
try
and
get
a
handle
on.
N
So
on
that
issue,
I
think
the
amended
bylaw
coming
forward
with
the
new
Schedule
B
following
Council
else
on
Terry's
motion,
really
helps
to
define
what
is
that
barrier.
Bionaire,
eeeh
I
think
staff
have
provided
a
an
operational
ization
of
that
concept.
That's
very
useful
and
we
were
pleased
to
see
that,
because
it
provides
a
real
focus
for
the
kind
of
I
would
say
sort
of
regulation
in
a
way
of
that
particular
activity.
N
The
restriction
of
the
approval
required
by
the
general
manager,
planning
infrastructure
and
economic
development
to
just
that
area
and
the
urban
area
with
respect
to
vegetation
removal
will
go
a
long
way
towards
dealing
with
this
issue
of
pre-emptive
clearing
I.
Believe
it's
not
it's
not
really
a
permitting
system,
but
it
is
a
pre-approval.
N
It
does
provide
an
opportunity
to
require
an
environmental
impact
statement.
It
does
provide
an
opportunity
to
you
know,
regulate,
doesn't
prevent
it,
but
it
proved
it
provides
a
good
framework
for
dealing
with
it.
So
we're
very
pleased
to
see
that
now
the
the
types
of
areas
that
are
covered
by
this
within
the
Perry
urban
area
are
natural
environment
areas,
urban
natural
features,
rural
natural
features
and
parts
of
the
natural
heritage
system
that
are
shown
in
schedules.
N
L,
those
are
all
very
large
types
of
natural
features,
and
that
will
go
a
long
way
towards
really
dealing
with
all
of
the
types
of
pre-emptive
clearing
that
we're
concerned
about.
But
this
still
remains
a
small
gap,
and
that
is
if
you've
got
a
five
acre
woodlot
somewhere
in
this
Prairie
urban
area.
It
won't
be
covered
by
one
of
these
major
types
of
natural
environment
areas,
and
so
there
would
still
be
you
know,
perhaps
opportunity
to
remove
these
preemptively,
even
though
they
would
be
very
desirable
features
to
have
in
an
urban
area.
C
C
M
Thank
you
chair
and
thank
you
committee
for
allowing
me
to
speak
one
more
time.
I
just
basically
have
very
minor
comments.
Thank
you
for
I
want
to.
Thank
you.
Thank
the
committee
for
under
for
its
understanding
and
perseverance
in
fine-tuning
the
bylaw
and
I
want
to
say
that
I
fully
support
councilor
else
on
Terry's
motion.
I
want
to
just
explain
how
I
got
into
this,
because
I
wasn't
looking
to
to
get
into
all
this
farming
stuff
I'm,
not
a
real
farmer.
In
fact,
our
neighbors,
who
are
farmers,
will
tell
you
I'm,
not
a
farmer.
I
M
Number
of
things
but
growing
and
seems
to
be
beyond
my
ability,
I
started
out
providing
comments
on
this
on
behalf
of
the
Ontario
woodlot
Association,
lower
Ottawa
Valley
chapter.
We
had
seen
this
bylaw
as
a
potential
for
introducing
an
inducement
or
an
incentive
to
woodlot
owners
to
get
a
forest
management
plan
didn't
quite
work
out
that
way.
M
There
are
some
provisions
for
it,
but
we
were
hoping
what
a
little
more
explicitly
I
encourage
the
committee
to
look
at
this
issue
at
the
two-year
review
as
an
opportunity
to
address
ways
to
encourage
woodlot
owners
to
get
and
implement
a
management
plan.
As
an
aside,
I
would
also
encourage
the
city
itself
to
update
its
management
plan
for
its
forested
land,
such
as
a
Marlboro
forest.
A
managed
forest
is
more
productive,
no
matter
what
its
objectives,
if
it's
some
carbon
sequestration,
if
its
wildlife
habitat.
M
If
it's
tourism,
it's
interesting
to
note
that
within
the
antara,
the
lower
Ottawa
Valley
Chapter
of
the
Ontario
woodlot
Association,
most
of
our
members
have
a
management
plan,
and
almost
none
of
these
plans
include
timber
production.
It's
all
for
other
values,
including
just
the
forest
grow
better
and
I,
would
just
add
that
I'm
happy
to
work
with
staff
if
they
want
either
myself
or
anyone
within
the
board.
Finally,
I'd
like
to
take
this
opportunity
to
thank
the
city
for
providing
the
snowplows
the
ambulance,
the
fire
trucks
for
touch-a-truck
at
North
Gore
on
Sunday.
O
O
Well,
it
is
very
interesting
following
the
last
presentation
and
all
but
quite
frankly,
the
site
alteration
bylaw
is
good
news,
the
review
period
just
so
you
know
we
have
a
planning
and
zoning
committee
with
the
FCA
and
we
are
all
about
creating
great
neighborhoods
and
promoting
community
associations
in
them.
So
that
being
said,
when
you
look
at
particularly
the
infill
and
as
we
grow
and
and
you
there's
no
doubt
that
you're
seeing
that
in
these
outlying
areas,
you
know
as
we
go
Finley,
Creek
and
beyond.
We
are
concerned
about
that
monitoring.
O
C
Great,
thank
you.
You
I
know,
I.
Think
it's
one
of
those
things
that
you
don't
almost
don't
really
want
to
have
to
need
this
for
that
purpose,
I
think,
in
a
lot
of
cases,
you
look
at
the
Nepean
woods.
You
look
at
Sifl
wood
Lots
in
manitech
that
have
recently
been
acquired
by
the
city
through
cooperation
with
the
with
the
property
developer.
The
landowner.
In
that
case
those
are
the
ideal
situation.
C
Is
that
you,
you
don't
even
have
to
worry
about
someone
touching
that
forested
lands
that
they
see
the
value
in
it
through
what
what
it
can
bring
to
the
new
development
they
work
with
the
city
to
ensure
that
it's
in
proper
hands
when
it's
all
said
and
done,
unfortunately,
every
now
and
then
we
do
see
a
land
clearing
situation,
whether
it's
to
mate,
with
a
lands
for
I.
You
know
I,
guess
a
downgrade
beer
score
or
or
just
for
for
large-scale
development.
So
you
know
you
need
these
kind
of
things.
C
For
that
reason,
you
never
you
don't
really
want
to
need
it,
but
I
think
for
the
most
part,
I
would
think
the
rule
is
more
is
more
that
we
do
have
that
cooperation
with
our
with
our
developers
in
the
area
that
we
don't
never
have
to
worry
about
this
to
a
large
degree.
Thanks
for
your
for
your
your
group's
involvement
in
this
as
well.
Thank.
C
I
Thank
you
Sheila
for
being
here
anyway.
I
want
to
thank
all
the
speakers
and
I
want
to
thank,
also
miss
Dolan
she's
sitting
in
the
crowd,
and
there
was
a
lots
of
work
happen
and
I
want
to
thank
stuff
for
the
report
and
the
clarification
for
our
residents
specifically
in
the
rural
area,
but
I
feel
so
bad
that
mr.
Chapman
has
been
here
all
day
and
no
one
asked
him
questions.
Okay,
I
like
to
ask
you
a
question:
would
you
mind
coming
to
the
mic.
I
I
Thank
You
mr.
Chapman
and
I
really
appreciate
your
being
here
with
us
today.
I
know
it's
been
a
long
day
for
you,
but
that's
one
on
a
regular,
normal
workday
for
you.
But
every
time
you
see
the
world
by
law.
I
make
me
think
and
I
know
in
my
what
I'm
thinking
right
now,
which
is
how
this
is
gonna
impact
your
workload
and
how
you
gonna,
how?
How
is
your
planning
and
your
work
plan
that
they
did?
I
P
Yes,
thank
you
chair.
We
have
had
some
discussions.
We
have
expressed
our
concerns
about
increase
in
service
requests
for
for
us
to
respond
to
and
expressed
our
concerns
about
being
at
our
max
capacity
and
not
being
able
to
to
take
on
any
additional
work.
The
problem
here
is
that
there's
multiple
bylaws,
that
are
being
you
know,
taken
into
one
bylaw
here
and
there's
other
departments
that
do
some
of
the
enforcement
of
the
site
plan.
I,
lay
the
site
alteration,
bylaw,
ARS,
primarily
I'll,
be
around
the
drainage,
ditches
and
and
things
things
like
that.
I
O
I
C
C
You
so
just
while
we're
here
on
section
13
I
know
we
had
this
discussion
last
last
month.
I
think
there
was
some
clarity
added
to
the
bylaw
to
a
degree
to
make
sure
it
aligns
with
the
Municipal
Act,
but
in
terms
of
the
concern
with
powers
of
entry
in
either
legal
staff
or
yourself,
but
sure
I'm
just
speak
to
what
that
process
would
be.
What
kind
of
assurance
can
a
property
owner
have
that?
It's
not
just
some.
You
know
it's
not
just
Steve
Willis
showing
up.
C
You
know,
I,
don't
know
what
you
drive,
but,
let's
just
say
it's
a
Buick
Regal
just
showing
up
on
your
property
and-
and
you
don't
even
know
who
he
is
like.
Who
is
this
imposing
individual
that
I
don't
want
on
my
yard?
How
do
you
make
sure
that
the
proper
identification
not
just
not
just
a
badge,
but
thank
you
obviously,
when
bylaw
shows
up,
you
know
it's
by
law.
There's
a
city
vehicle,
there's
the
uniform.
Q
You're
looking
at
me
so
I'll
start
off
with
more
about
this
and
I
do,
but
the
Municipal
Act
provides
that
notice
has
to
be
given
that
identification
has
to
be
provided
and
that
absent
a
warrant.
You
can't
go
into
a
dwelling
unit
so
and
you
have
to
be
authorized
by
the
city
to
attend
upon
the
property.
So
there
are
all
these
guarantees
that
are
built
in
and
it's
black.
When
enforcement,
it's
taking
place
all.
R
Thank
You
mr.
chair
I
just
won't
follow
up
on
that
piece.
Well,
what
we
discussed
last
time
is
not
what
city
staff
will
do.
They
will
follow
all
the
rules.
As
mr.
mark
outlined
known
as
mr.
Chapman
has
said,
his
officers
will
come
in
uniform
and
in
a
city
marked
car.
It's
the
other
departments
that
we're
talking
about.
They
could
show
up.
We
want
to
make
sure
that
they
have
at
least
a
city
vehicle,
because
we
know
they're,
scam,
artists
out
there,
and
this
is
what
we
want
to
protect
people
against.
R
That
will
show
up
at
the
door
and
say
they're
from
the
city
of
Ottawa.
And
can
you
show
me
your
water
bill?
Can
you
show
me
your
hydro
bill
whatever
they
want
access
to?
That's
what
we
want
to
try
to
protect
people,
so
we
can
assure
rural
residents
that
if
we
are
coming
out
to
their
property
to
do
with
this
bylaw,
it
will
be,
as
mr.
R
mark
said,
some
sort
of
advance
notice,
but
I
think
what
all
the
members
of
the
committee
wanted
to
get
at
last
time
was
that
city
employee
will
clearly
be
identified
by
either
the
vehicle
or
certain
uniform,
something
more
than
just
someone
showing
up
at
the
door.
Saying
I'm
from
the
city.
I
don't
know.
Can
you
answer
that?
Mr.
marker
is
this
mr.
Q
Chair
I'll
start
off
the
the
legislation
requires
that
the
person
have
identification
and
that
they
did
to
be
authorized
by
the
city
that
they
have
identification
and
that
they
give
notice.
So
any
city
staff
person
or
agent
of
the
city
be
mr.
Chaffin,
be
the
general
manager
has
to
meet
those
requirements
that,
regretfully,
that's
not
going
to
stop
somebody
else
from
showing
up
without
those
elements,
but
if
they
don't
I
hope
that
the
resident
will
ask
show
me
your
identification,
and
you
didn't
tell
me,
you
were
coming
I'm,
not
letting
you
on
my
property.
Q
P
I
think
it's
been
captured,
I
mean
it's.
We
have
been
for
violent
right,
Tory
services,
we
have
standard
operating
procedures
that
are
officer
self,
to
follow
and
and
and
part
of
that
is,
you
know,
showing
identification
before
the
aunt
or
a
property
I'm
part
of
the
reason,
for
that
is
the
collecting
evidence
and
testify
in
court.
You
have
to
be
able
to
prove
that
that
you
did
that.
That
was
part
of
the
process
before
starting
your
investigation.
So.
C
Thank
you
and
the
questions
just
want
to
thank
staff
for
their
work
in
the
last
month
on
creating
the
map
on
altering
section
was
now
section
11
with
that
with
the
attached
map
as
Schedule
B,
and
then
on
your
work
on
section
2
as
well.
I'm
just
appreciate
taking
time
to
allow
us
to
go
through
that
and
to
come
back.
C
This
report
will
go
to
Council
on
may
may
9th
for
final
approval,
so
on
the

It's
part
of
my
cooperation
on
that
motion
carried
and
on

C
And
on
their
reports

I

alteration:

and

back
on
its
performance
and
any
recommended
improvements,

Thank

C
All

it
for
our
