E
Good
morning,
madam
chair
and
good
morning,
colleagues
as
share
of
crime
prevention
Ottawa,
it's
my
pleasure
to
be
here
again
presenting
to
you
the
crime
prevention
annual
report
for
2016,
and
last
year
we
presented
our
work
on
the
Ottawa
grand
gang
strategy.
That
was
a
big
focus
last
year
for
us
and
we're
still
going
to
carry
work,
carry
forward
to
work
on
that.
E
We
continue
to
make
progress
on
shaping
the
next
steps
in
addressing
street
violence
based
on
research,
feedback
from
program
partners
and
a
public
consultation
process
to
show
you
the
full
depth
of
CPS
war
CBO's
work.
This
year's
report
focuses
on
violence
against
women
in
the
city
and
the
innovative
work
we're
doing
with
our
partners.
E
A
You
very
much
councilor
Jerr
counselors.
Thank
you
for
welcoming
us
this
morning.
This
morning
we
are
featuring
our
work
over
the
last
decade
in
the
area
of
violence
against
women.
Right
now,
it's
an
exciting
time
to
be
working
on
violence
against
women.
Ten
years
ago,
this
issue
was
barely
on
the
public
agenda,
but
in
the
past
few
years,
high-profile
cases
have
brought
this
issue
center
stage
from
sports
stars
to
Hollywood.
This
discussion
is
happening,
and
here
in
Ottawa
we
have
the
programs
in
place
that
clearly
addressed
the
issue.
A
Our
approach
is
multifaceted.
We
have
been
guided
by
a
volunteer
reference
group
and
our
work
includes
educational
events
such
as
our
speaker
series,
our
and
our
research
and
publications,
posters
and
our
website,
and
through
these
means
we
have
reached
hundreds,
if
not
thousands
of
residents,
but
the
in-depth
work
towards
social
change
and
behavioral
change
happens
through
our
partners
and
the
projects
that
we
fund-
and
we
are
really
happy
this
morning
to
showcase
three
of
those
projects
and
I.
A
Thank
our
partners
for
being
with
us
this
morning,
I'm
going
to
introduce
the
partners
one
at
a
time
as
they
speak
so
I'd
like
to
introduce
to
you
Carolyn
Johnston,
who
is
the
executive
director
of
the
Ottawa
coalition
to
end
violence
against
women.
Who's
going
to
speak
about
the
innovative
I
can
manifest
change
project.
F
Good
morning,
Thank
You
Nancy
I
would
like
to
first
acknowledge
and
thank
the
City
of
Ottawa
for
its
long-term
core
financial
support
of
the
Ottawa
coalition
to
end
violence
against
women
through
the
city's
community
funding
branch.
This
clearly
demonstrates
the
city's
commitment
to
and
leadership
in,
addressing
violence
against
women
with
crime
prevention,
ottawa's
leadership
and
focus
on
the
importance
of
prevention
and
not
only
response
to
violence
against
women.
Activa
has
become
a
leader
in
canada,
with
expertise
in
engaging
young
men
in
the
prevention
of
violence
against
women.
F
Through
our
manifest
change
program,
manifest
change
initially
began
in
2009
with
a
number
of
crime
prevention,
Ottawa,
supported
community
events
regarding
men's
role
and
responsibilities
in
preventing
violence
against
women.
It
grew
to
include
workshops
and
a
social
media
campaign.
The
most
recent
phase
of
the
project
has
focused
on
youth
marginalized
by
racism
and
poverty
and
youth
in
contact
with
the
justice
system.
In
this
phase,
we
are
training
frontline
staff
from
youth
serving
organizations.
F
Current
partners
include
the
William
e
hay
detention
center,
the
John
Howard
society
and
the
Odawa
Friendship
Centre
I
am
a
kind
man
program.
Activa
was
recently
invited
to
participate
in
an
international
conference
hosted
by
Global
Affairs
Canada,
focusing
on
the
role
and
responsibilities
of
men
in
boys
and
cheating
gender
equity.
Many
conference
delegates
found
the
manifest
change
model
to
be
an
inspiring
and
effective
example
of
violence
against
women
prevention
programming.
Manifest
change
is
engaged
in
transformational
and
societal
change.
F
Through
this
program
we
are
one
challenging
the
attitudes
and
beliefs
that
give
rise
to
violence
against
women.
The
purpose
of
training
youth
workers
in
the
most
recent
phase
of
the
project
is
to
equip
them
with
the
skills
to
model
respect
for
women
and
to
demonstrate
to
young
men
how
men
can
prevent
common
situations
of
violence
against
women.
F
One
youth
worker
with
the
John
Howard
Society,
stated
that
Manifest
range
training
helped
me
to
challenge
misogynistic
protector
thinking
in
the
young
men
in
our
facility
now
I
ask
them
what
kind
of
choices
we
can
offer
to
women
facing
abuse.
Male
youth
participants
have
shown
a
high
level
of
engagement
in
the
program
and
youth
often
request
longer
conversations
and
more
manifest
change
activities
from
the
youth
workers.
F
Secondly,
we
are
connecting
youth
serving
agencies
and
the
anti
violence
sector
to
groups
that
rarely
intersect
directly
anti
violence
against
women
experts
informed
the
development
of
the
manifest
change
training
and
helped
to
deliver
the
training
to
frontline
youth
workers.
Youth
workers
then
adapt
manifest
change
activities
to
meet
the
needs
of
the
young
men
they
support
as
well.
F
Youth
workers
are
now
better
equipped
to
receive
disclosures
of
sexual
or
intimate
partner
violence
and
to
make
appropriate
referrals.
Finally,
we
are
changing
the
hearts
and
minds
of
young
men
to
actively
prevent
violence
against
women.
The
manifest
change
program
uses
validated
survey
tools
to
clearly
demonstrate
that,
after
attending
the
workshops,
young
men
become
more
willing
to
act
when
faced
with
a
situation
of
violence
against
women
in
their
community
compared
to
before
they
took
part
in
the
program.
F
When
asked
why
they
would
now
intervene,
the
top
three
reasons
stated
are
because
they
can
prevent
someone
from
being
hurt,
because
everyone
has
a
role
to
play
in
keeping
others
safe
and
they
like
thinking
of
themselves.
As
someone
who
helps
others.
Thank
you
again
for
your
support
of
crime
prevention,
ottawa's
work
and
ours.
We
know
that
the
prevention
and,
ultimately
the
elimination
of
violence
against
women,
is
something
that
the
community
and
the
City
of
Ottawa
are
deeply
invested
in.
F
G
Good
morning,
like
to
first
of
all
think
thank
all
of
you
for
coming
this
morning
and
thank
you
for
inviting
us
to
the
table
to
continue
our
discussion
on
preventing
violence
against
women
also
need
to
thank
you
for
your
ongoing
support
of
the
mandap
program,
very,
very
much
impossible
for
us
to
proceed
without
the
the
generous
funding
that
that
crime
prevention,
auto
has
directed
to
us
very
quickly.
Our
project
involves
an
increasing
number
of
schools
across
the
city.
G
So
we
we
do
our
best
we've
designed
a
cyclical
system
to
to
ensure
that
we
can
be
consistently
active
in
as
many
schools
as
we
can
across
the
city
by
engaging
engaging
our
leadership
students
across
the
city
and
then
having
those
guys
branch
off
into
two
further
groups
within
their
school.
Providing
leadership.
G
Training
partnering
with
some
of
these
organizations
at
the
table
here
like
Activa
and
manifest
change,
so
that
we
can
sort
of
meet
that
with
some
of
the
the
latest
and
greatest
I
guess:
educational
background
in
the
field
to
help
support
support
what
we're
doing
so.
It's
been
really
interesting
and
amazing
to
see
what
the
city
can
do
through
organizations
like
Activa
and
then
and
how
that
can
meet
the
kids
at
the
grass
grassroots
level.
I
brought
a
couple
of
the
guys
from
our
leadership
group
at
our
school.
G
We
are
currently
in
I
think
the
number
is
24
25
schools
right
now:
high
schools
across
the
city-
oh,
these
are
just.
This
is
just
a
group
of
guys
that
were
convenient
for
me
to
bring
along
and
they've,
been
around
long
enough
to
have
a
bit
of
the
context,
and
they
just
wanted
to
share
a
little
bit
about
what
the
project
means
for
them.
Specifically.
B
For
me,
I
would
say
the
main
thing
about
man-up
is
I'm,
trying
to
figure
trying
to
understand
this
issue
of
violence
against
women
from
a
different
perspective
and
from
a
woman's
perspective,
and
obviously
we
tried
to
do
this
by
we
invited
a
couple
of
weeks
ago.
B
We
had
a
discussion
with
a
group
of
girls
from
our
school
and
we
wanted
to
talk
to
them
and
we
want
to
just
understand
how
they
feel
and
if
they
are
comfortable
in
the
hallways
and
around
our
school,
because
we
know
we
don't
see
everything
because
we
do
have
a
big
school
and
obviously
we
know
we
can't
control
it.
Everything
and
we
know
that
we're
not
perfect,
but
we're
just
trying
to
make
a
change.
B
Personally,
I
feel
that
men
truly
gives
me
the
chance
to
develop
myself
as
a
man.
It
makes
me
understand
things
that
I
wouldn't
up
otherwise,
and
people
who
have
not
had
the
opportunity
in
generations
past
also
have
not
had
the
opportunity
to
develop
as
a
man.
B
I
Hi,
thank
you
for
having
me
I.
Think,
like
many,
my
partners
here
at
the
table
we'd
like
to
thank
crime
prevention,
Ottawa
for
being
able
to
support
and
believe
in
this
project.
We
truly
think
that,
without
their
support
over
three
years
that
the
project
wouldn't
be
where
it
is
today,
we
found
that
having
municipal
financial
support
for
our
project
has
been
a
major
major
contributor
to
being
able
to
run
sorry
sexual
violence
at
large
events.
I
In
the
past
three
years,
we
have
provided
over
10,000
people
with
bystander
intervention,
training,
and/or
information
we
have
been
featured
in
national
and
international
media
and
most
recently
have
been
featured
in
the
LA
Times
as
an
expert
we've
designed
projects,
soundcheck
training,
a
train-the-trainer
project,
and
it's
actually
now
being
delivered
in
Halifax,
New,
Brunswick
and
Newfoundland,
so
that
local
sexual
assault
experts
can
meet
with
their
festivals
and
be
able
to
engage
with
them.
The
core
focus
of
our
project
is
on
training,
volunteers,
organizers
and
security
staff
in
bystander
intervention.
I
I
Prior
to
the
evaluation,
we
identify
that
recognition,
skills,
understanding
the
impact
of
bystander
intervention,
having
confidence
in
one's
skills
and
feeling
a
sense
of
responsibility
to
act
all
aid
in
increasing
prevention,
which
in
turn,
contributes
to
a
shift
in
culture.
The
evaluation
showed
the
following.
Sadly,
we
see
a
tendency
towards
apathy
in
large
events,
which
is
really
inaction.
I
I
Volunteers
also
felt
as
strongly
that
bystander
intervention
encouraged
a
safer
environment.
Finally,
we
wanted
to
evaluate
how
the
training
was
contributing
to
sorry
contributing
to
knowledge
change.
If
people
do
not
have
the
knowledge
to
recognize
sexual
violence
in
harassment
or
the
skills,
it's
not
realistic
to
expect
them
that
they're
going
to
intervene,
even
if
they
do
have
a
sense
of
responsibility
before
the
training
9%
of
the
people
who
responded
had
some
idea
of
bystander
intervention
after
the
training.
77%
strongly
agree
that
they
have
the
knowledge
in
bystander
intervention
to
intervene
in
2017.
I
The
project
is
work
to
complement
our
training
with
other
evidence-based
ways
in
which
to
prevent
sexual
violence.
We've
worked
with
organizers
this
year,
we've
worked
with
musicians
and
our
other
community
organizations
to
pilot
one
of
the
first.
We
believe
in
the
nation
a
specific
safety
audit,
it's
otherwise
known
as
a
crime
prevention
by
Environmental
Design
survey
and
we
partnered
with
Women's
Initiative
for
safer
environments
and
event
the
logistic
experts.
We've
worked
as
security
firms
to
further
develop
industry,
specific
training
and
tools
and
we've
fostered
relationships
with
other
venues
such
as
local
bars
and
TD
place.
I
Most
recently,
we're
also
in
the
process
of
exploring
how
Ottawa
can
actually
be
a
leader
in
embedding
sexual
assault
prevention
into
the
event
permit
process.
We're
excited
that
these
conversations
are
happening
and
we
cannot
thank
our
allies
and
partners
enough
for
their
openness
to
engage
in
this
conversation.
Thank
you.
So
much.
A
Thank
you,
Stephanie
I'm,
worried
about
time.
We
have
a
bit
more
if
you're,
okay
with
it
so
I
would
like
to
so.
Thank
you
very
much.
I
think
that
this
gives
you
as
an
in-depth
flavour,
of
the
work
that
we've
been
doing
on
violence
against
women.
We
also
every
year
present
to
the
board
our
board
of
directors,
a
report
on
our
funding
to
aggregate
the
results
of
our
annual
annual
funding
and
amid
Luqman,
who
has
come
to
crime
prevention.
A
H
You
Nancy
thank
you
for
this
opportunity
to
present
our
evaluation
of
crime
prevention,
ottawa's
2015,
community
investments.
Why
2015
these
projects
started
in
2015
many
projects
last
more
than
one
year
and
received
their
final
reports
once
they
are
concluded
in
2015,
we
invested
nearly
five
hundred
and
sixty
thousand
dollars
in
the
three
pillars
of
our
work:
youth,
violence
against
women
and
crime
affected
neighborhoods.
It's
important
to
note
that
$300,000
of
our
investments
came
via
a
generous
mayor's
initiative
to
fund
a
gang
intervention
program
called
time
for
change
with
the
rest
of
the
money.
H
H
H
Building
capacity
in
crime
prevention
is
an
investment
that
yields
great
dividends.
For
example,
CPO
supported
a
hundred
and
ten
teachers
in
both
English
speaking
school
boards,
with
training
and
materials
to
deliver
the
fourth
our
program
to
their
students.
One
teacher
noted
that
quote
the
fourth:
our
program
gives
students
the
strategies,
the
strategies
and
opportunities
to
deal
with
conflicts
more
appropriately.
This
is
increasing
capacity
at
an
institutional
level.
In
2015
we
funded
the
creation
of
innovative
training
materials.
H
On
the
subject
of
home
takeovers,
a
guidebook
for
service
providers
was
created
and
over
250
copies
was
distributed
throughout
the
city.
Also,
we
created
over
60
minutes
of
video
to
complement
the
trainings
on
the
subject.
The
project
coordinator
said
quote:
the
response
to
these
tools
was
overwhelmingly
positive
and
sparked
conversations
amongst
a
number
of
residents
who
reflected
on
their
own
situations
or
those
of
their
friends
and
neighbors
as
home
takeovers.
The
tools
also
brought
extensive
media
coverage,
bringing
awareness
to
an
otherwise
hidden
issue.
H
We
are
committed
to
continuing
this
important
work
to
make
our
community
safer.
As
for
next
steps,
we
will
develop
a
new
strategic
plan,
new
legislation
from
the
Ontario
Ministry
of
Community
Safety
and
Correctional
Services
expected
this
fall
will
likely
feed
into
that
plan.
We
welcome
any
questions
you
may
have.
The
opposing
Lucas
town
of
cross
AOC
was
at
the
Avenue.
Thank
you
very
much.
C
C
Welcome
and
thank
you
for
the
presentation
and
thank
you
to
all
of
the
presenters
who
are
here
today,
I
as
a
woman
in
the
city
appreciate
the
focus
on
gender-based
violence.
Violence
against
women
I
think
the
man-up
program
should
be
core
curriculum
in
our
schools,
because
really
education,
I
think,
is
the
key
to
changing
attitudes
and
it
has
to
start
at
a
young
age
so
good
for
you
for
the
work
that
you
do
and
all
of
you
I
appreciate
it.
C
I
have
my
speakers
list,
but
just
before
I
get
there
just
one
question
on
the
the
300,000
dollar
contribution
to
forget
the
name
of
the
program
that
time
forging
time
for
change
time
for
change
program.
How
are
you
measuring
success
of
that
program?.
A
A
So
what
they're
their
attitudes,
their
engagement
with
education
or
with
work,
their
ability
to
reconnect
in
pro-social
relationships,
stability
of
housing,
dealing
with
mental
health
and
dealing
with
addictions,
issues
and
I
believe
I've
covered
the
set
of
the
core
issues
that
they're
focusing
on
it's
a
case:
management
approach,
a
wraparound
case
management
approach
for
some
very
difficult
to
work
with
clients.
We
require
reporting
every
six
months
and
we
are
actively
engaged
with
the
the
agencies,
the
jonhoward
Society
and
the
Ottawa
Coralie
Ottawa
community
immigrant
services
organization,
who
are
delivering
the
program.
How.
C
A
J
Thank
you
very
much
so
I
have
a
number
of
questions
like
I'll.
Do
them
in
reverse
order,
so
the
pie
chart
you
presented
us
with
the
funding.
Why
is
there
a
distinction
in
it
between
violence
against
women
and
violence
since
women
/
youth?
What's
what's
the
distinction
there
and
why
wasn't
all
put
into
one
one
bundle.
H
So
some
of
the
investments
that
we
do
affect
more
than
one
of
the
pillars,
so
there's
crossover
so
in
in
the
ones
where
there
is
a
youth
and
violence
against
women
attached.
That
would
be
something
like
man
up
where
you
are
impacting
the
perceptions
amongst
youth,
at
the
same
time
contributing
to
changes
in
the
area
of
violence
against
women.
Okay,
it's.
J
J
Okay,
so
during
the
presentation
of
the
part
of
the
presentation
about
project
soundcheck,
one
of
the
one
of
the
things
that
was
mentioned
was
working
with
the
city
to
build
into
our
permit
program
for
festival.
They
a
vetting
process
around
sexual
assault
training.
So
if
somebody
could
tell
me
what
the
status
of
that
initiative
is,
it
sounds
like
a
really
interesting
one
and
a
helpful
one,
so
it
just
like
a
sense
of
where
we
are
and
and
what
this
committee
might
be
able
to
do
to
to
push
it
forward.
Yeah.
I
We've
really
learned
that
festivals
come
in
all
different
sizes,
and
so
we
wanted
to
make
sure
that,
if
we're
proceeding
in
this
kind
of
permit
process
piece
that
it's
attainable
for
all
festivals
and
not
just
the
larger
ones,
like
our
BC,
Blues,
Fest,
I
think
for
right
now.
This
was
one
of
our
2017
goals.
To
start
that,
conversation
and
I
think
we're
meeting
that
objective.
At
this
point,
I
think
kind
of
moving
forward.
I
That
being
able
to
engage
with
more
folks
who
are
on
the
event
permit
around
the
event
permit
table
would
be
really
helpful
to
the
project
so
that
we
can
really
learn
about
kind
of
meet
both
of
our
skill
set
so
understand
what
the
sexual
violence
advocates
can
give
to
this,
but
also
around
the
logistics
of
putting
something
like
this
into
the
permit
process.
Okay,.
J
So
maybe
this
is
a
question
for
staff
as
they
move
to
this
next
phase.
It
sounds
like
some
deal
dealt
with
at
the
political
level
in
terms
of
accounts
were,
and
the
festival's
group
so
and
I'm,
not
sure
which
staff
remember
what
I
answer
this
question,
but
who
should
they
be
sitting
at
the
table
with
to
talk
about
the
logistics
and
the
possibilities
of
moving
this
forward
into
part
of
our
program?
J
K
J
J
Finally,
the
man
up
program,
I'm,
curious
I,
see
the
number
of
schools
you're
in
and
that
that's
that's
fabulous
but
I'm
curious
about
how
that
happens.
Is
it
is
a
bunch
of
students
going
to
a
teacher
saying,
hey
we
heard
about
this
we'd
like
this
to
happen?
Is
it
that
is
it
a
teacher
taking
the
initiative
and
reaching
out
to
the
students,
or
is
it,
as
was
suggested
by
the
chairs?
Is
the
board
involved
to
make
this
part
of
something
available
at
every
school?
So
how
do
we
sort
of
get
there
if.
G
That's
a
it's
a
good
question
and
another
another
good
question.
We
have
is
girls
the
best
thing,
because
I
agree
with
you
every
school
is
that
be
pretty
awesome,
but
it
we're
very
limited
in
terms
of
what
we're
like
our
own
capacity
like
where
everybody
that's
working
on
the
project
is
either
a
full-time
student
or
a
full-time
teacher
as
it
is
so
we're
trying
our
best
to
stay
humble
and
our
initiatives,
but
the
mechanism
measures
so
far
is
at
the
nearing
the
end
of
every
school
year.
G
G
So
it's
sort
of
the
the
origin
of
our
program
actually
happened
at
City
Hall
here
when
Glenn
canning
was
speaking
to
the
council
and
he
was
advocating
doing
his
work
and
he
sort
of
challenged
us
to
to
be
the
ones
that
they
at
the
ground
level
to
make
a
difference.
So
we
thought
we'd,
try
and
recreate
that
experience,
because
because
our
guys
responded
really
well
to
it
and
they
wanted
to,
they
wanted
to
start
making
a
difference.
G
So
we
try
and
recreate
that
once
a
year
and
then
as
broadly
as
we
as
we
could
so,
the
mechanism
would
be
an
open
invitation
to
schools
like
over
email
like
the
teachers.
Try
and
engage
a
teacher
that
we
thought
we
think
at
each
school
will
will
move
the
project
forward
and,
at
the
very
least,
to
get
kids
to
show
up
to
the
conference
and
then
from
there
it
becomes
student
driven
and
student-led
along
the
lines
of
some
parameters
that
we
set,
for.
You
know
just
best
practices
in
our
groups:
okay,.
G
No
Catholic
and
public
english-speaking,
yes,
we've
we've
hit
some
barriers
with
french-speaking
schools,
we're
working
on
it
like
we
definitely
sat
down
around
the
table
with
some
of
their
superintendents
and
tried
to
come
up
with
a
parallel
program.
I
know
there
is
a
program
in
the
French
schools
and
there's
a
gentleman
working
on
replicating
it.
On
that
side
we
are
working
with
him
to
partner.
G
J
And-
and
does
it
does
it
also
is?
The
outreach
also
includes
three
quite
a
number
of
private
schools
in
the
city.
Does
the
outreach
go
out
to
schools
that
are
not
affiliated
with
a
board?
The
oh
reach
goes
yep,
okay
and
and
and
last
question,
just
as
you
said,
you're
trying
to
be
humble
and
you're
working
within
your
your
pocket
of
funding
and
resources.
Have
you
had
to
turn
any
schools
down
or
any
student-led
projects
if
you
had
to
turn
them
down
because
of
a
lack
of
resources.
G
J
Very
very
last
question,
so
you're
getting
the
money
from
from
the
organization.
What's
the
school
board's
roles,
though,
do
they
do
they?
Allow
you
time
to
go
out
and
speak
at
other
schools,
or
do
they
allow
you
time
within
school
day
to
work
around
your
curriculum
to
hold
the
dance
or
plan
events.
G
Like
well
I'm
responsible
for
finding
my
my
supply
teacher,
that's
in
my
classroom
right
now,
so
we've
done
our
best
to
raise
funds
through
different
organizations
and
we've
been
lucky
enough
to
get
some
grants
and
some
support
so
like
any
any
minute
that
I'm
out
of
the
class
costs
money
and
we're
responsible
for
that.
So
their
support,
I
guess,
would
be
around
like
just
granting
us
permission
to
come
and
be
part
of
this
like
they
could
say.
No
so
I
just
say
they
don't
support.
Us
is
not
totally.
J
G
All
about
it,
there
would
be
there's
funding
allocations
for
things
like
like
Student
Success
projects,
where
they're
sort
of
trying
to
bend
a
different
needs
in
their
schools.
So
some
schools
can
tap
into
like
public
money
within
a
building,
but
that
would
be
like
on
the
on
the
decision
making
like
local
decision-making
within
their
own
school.
So
definitely
nothing
systemic.
But
there
are
some
some
ways
yeah
that
we
found
successful.
Okay,.
E
I
can
just
add
a
couple
of
points
to
a
counselor
egg
lies
questioning
first
of
all,
the
program
when
mr.
canning
introduced
it
to
City
Council
here
in
this
building.
His
goal
basically
was
to
use
crime
prevention
Ottawa
as
an
umbrella
organization,
but
he
wanted
the
schools
and
the
school
population
to
populate
other
schools
with
the
program,
so
that
was
the
intent
to
get
the
youth
in
Wallace
Peschel
II
them
the
female
youth
involved
into
the
program,
and
it's
had
good
success.
E
I
mean
we
had
the
program
nagas,
but
for
four
years,
and
it
has
had
good
success.
Are
we
across
the
city?
Not
yet?
Will
we
get
there
working
with
these
young
gentlemen
I'm
sure
we
will,
but
I
also
want
to
mention
you
mentioned
about
the
school.
Not
all
the
schools
are
involved,
we
do
have
the
dumar,
who
represents
the
fence
board,
sits
on
our
board,
so
that's
something
that
I
will
take
back
with
me
to
discuss
with
her
going
forward.
So
thank
you
for
that.
Okay,.
L
Thank
you,
madam
chair,
and
thank
you
to
you
all
for
a
comprehensive
presentation,
appreciate
the
information
and
your
great
work
in
the
communities.
I
wasn't
going
to
talk
about
the
curriculum
matter,
but
I
just
wanted
to
add
it's
first
of
all,
very
difficult
to
get
curriculum
changed
in
the
short
term.
It's
sort
of
more
of
a
long
term
project.
However,
I
think
that
the
current
provincial
government
is
very
open
to
these
types
of
initiatives.
L
G
Yes,
we've
been
engaged
in
some
of
the
GTA
school
boards
and
then
up
and
like
owen,
sound
and
then
Clemson
as
well
they've
been
reaching
out
to
us
and
then
trying
to
replicate
so
in
those
situations,
it's
kind
of
more
here's,
our
framework,
here's
what
we
do
liquor.
We
don't
own
this,
please
take
take
it
and
do
your
thing
down
there,
but.
L
You
explain
the
effectiveness
of
this
program
and
you
don't
you
don't
target,
maybe
the
curriculum,
because
that's
more
of
a
higher
fruit
type
of
objective,
but
you
were
looking
for
permanent
funding
from
the
province
and
that
maybe
you've
already
considered
that.
But
that's
just
my
my
free
free
advice
for
the
morning.
A
A
We
promoted
that
in
the
English
the
to
English
boards
for
many
years,
I
believe
they
have
now
taken
it
up
completely.
We
trained
in
homage
report.
He
referred
to
training,
110
teachers
that
was
in
the
fourth
that
was
that
year
in
the
fourth,
our
and
we've
just
started
working
with
the
scipio
again
on
that,
because
we
we
tried
a
number
of
years
ago,
but
the
translation
was
so
crappy.
They
didn't
like
it
so
we're
trying
again
because
they
seemed
to
have
a
revised
translation.
It's.
L
All
good
work
Nancy
trying
I'm
suggesting
for
permanent
funding,
where
we
can
include
every
single
school
English,
French,
Catholic,
non-catholic
public
schools
and
to
help
replicate
this
in
communities
that
can't
afford
it.
Maybe
don't
have
the
resources
to
do
it
because
the
need
is
just
as
present
in
rural
schools,
that
is
an
urban
school
so
anyway,
I'll
move
on,
but
certainly
if
you
want
to
have
that
discussion,
more
I
I
can
share
my
context.
So
not
in
your
presentation,
but
in
your
written
report
is
the
focus
on
street
violence
very
interested
in
this.
L
You
stated
your
your
work.
Over
the
last
three
years,
13
to
16,
we
conducted
interviews
with
gang
involved
individuals
held
focus
groups
and
hosted
a
public
console
to
vent,
to
gather
ideas
about
solutions
to
the
problem.
Can
you
share
with
me,
after
this
meeting
the
basic
feedback
that
you
receive,
particularly
from
gang
involved
individuals?
What
did
you
specifically
ask
them
and
what
was
the
feedback
that
you
got
back?
L
Are
you
able
to
provide
that
to
me
absolutely
okay
and
you
also
have
information
I'm,
just
curious
about
the
when
you
list
your
financial
information
page
five,
the
biggest
chunk
of
your
expenses
are
grants
and
in
the
paint
of
that
program,
which
I
think
is
very
good
I'm
just
curious
to
know
who,
how
many
people
have
received
grants
how
those
grant
dollars
get
disseminated
to
the
various
groups.
You
probably
have
assessment
criteria,
but
again,
if
you
could
share
with
that
me
after
today,
I
just
be
interested
to
know
how
how
those
monies
get
disseminated.
A
M
Thank
You
chair
and
Thank
You,
councillor,
Qadri
and
Nancy,
and
and
I
personally
really
enjoyed
hearing
from
all
of
you
in
terms
of
your
experience
with
the
individual
program.
So
thank
you
for
speaking
this
morning,
I
just
had
a
quick
remark
and
comment
on
a
line
item
in
the
report
that
wasn't
mentioned,
but
I
know
in
2015,
CBO
provided
money
to
the
reader
Rockland
Community
Resource
Center,
to
pilot
a
post
incident,
neighborhood
protocol
and
I
just
wanted
to
offer
feedback.
M
That's
been
going
extremely
well,
we've
been
using
it
extensively
whenever
there's
some
sort
of
violent
event,
a
shooting,
an
incident
of
some
kind.
The
protocol
is
initiated
and
it's
led
to
all
sorts
of
important
follow-up
activity.
It
could
be
a
sept
ed.
It
could
be
a
community
barbecue.
It
could
be
a
community
safety
meeting.
M
Many
many
ways
for
the
various
stakeholders
to
think
about
ways
of
preventing
those
types
of
events
from
happening
in
the
past.
So
I
just
wanted
to
acknowledge
that
from
where
I
sit,
that's
been
a
very
good
investment
and
I
know
I've
heard
a
lot
of
positive
feedback
from
the
stakeholders
involved.
So
thank
you
for
that.
As
well,
that's
it
sure
Thank.
C
C
N
N
Before
we
get
started,
I
just
like
to
thank
a
couple:
people
Nicole
for
her
participation
in
the
development.
This
report,
as
well
I'd
like
to
thank
Ryan
Perot
and
the
rest
of
the
BSS
unit
and
I,
also
have
Christine
partake
here
with
me
today,
as
well
as
Nancy
Jackson
and
jarred
Riley,
who
also
participated
in
the
development
of
the
report.
So
thank
you
to
them.
N
In
2016,
we
responded
to
more
than
74,000
requests
for
service
numbers
have
been
relatively
consistent
over
the
past
four
years,
despite
a
growing
population.
Our
continued
for
focus
on
community
engagement,
awareness
and
prevention
and
strategic
enforcement
approach
is
helping
to
limit
service
requests
by
preventing
problems
before
they
occur,
reducing
the
reoccurring
offenses
in
problem
areas.
Well,
this
is
good
news
for
the
residents.
This
approach
requires
significant
amount
of
work,
but
not
not
easily
captured
by
these
numbers.
N
Parking
numbers
are
also
remained
consistent,
with
close
to
350,000
tickets
being
issued,
resulting
in
approximately
19
million
dollars
in
gravity--
in
2016.
I
would
note
that
in
2017
we
are
forecasting
an
increase
in
service
requests
to
about
80,000.
This
increase
is
due
in
part
to
operational
demands
associated
with
Ottawa
2017
programming,
as
well
as
new
enforcement
requirements
for
vehicle
for
hire,
bylaw
smoke,
free
Ottawa
property
standards
and
noise.
N
There
were
three
types
of
enforcement
where
we
saw
increases
in
2016
parking
service
requests
increased
by
five
percent
as
a
result
of
the
police
download
of
after
our
service
calls
an
issue.
I
will
touch
on
later
in
this
presentation.
Parse
calls
also
increased
largely
as
a
result
of
the
police
download
of
after
our
bylaw
calls.
This
is
relatively
a
small
number
and
is
important
to
note
that
the
police
are
still
responding
to
Park
calls
where
there
is
indications
of
criminal
activity.
Finally,
smoking
services,
the
smoking
service
requests
increased
slightly.
N
This
is
largely
attributable
to
the
impending
implementation.
Community
awareness
of
the
water
pipe
ban,
however,
changes.
Whenever
changes
are
made
to
the
smoking
regulations,
we
tend
to
see
a
short
spike,
followed
by
a
gradual
decline
in
service
request
enforcement
of
the
water
pipe.
A
band
began
began
in
April
2017,
so
we
expect
further
increase
in
smoke.
Free
enforcement
requests
through
this
year.
N
N
We
also
work
with
service
Ottawa
to
bring
pet
registrations
to
my
service
Ottawa,
providing
convenience
for
residents
and
efficiencies
for
our
office.
The
35,000
annual
pet
registration
renewals
are
now
distributed
throughout
the
year,
based
on
on
anniversary
date,
as
opposed
to
former
bulk
April
renewal
timeframes.
N
This
has
greatly
reduced
wait
times
for
processing,
improved
accessibility
and
service
options
for
the
residents
and
improved
workflow
for
our
business
services
unit
is
an
example
of
how
our
operational
support
unit
has
helped
to
improve
our
service.
To
the
public,
the
operational
support
unit
has
greatly
improved
the
quality
of
information
provided
through
our
various
channels
from
scripts
and
knowledgebase.
Articles
used
by
3-1-1
call
centers
information
provided
through
public
information
and
media
relations
and,
of
course,
all
our
branches
contact
on
ottawa
see
a
community
outreach
has
been
a
key
factor
in
our
success.
N
Each
year
we
spawn
tree
respond
to
more
than
a
thousand
formal
inquiries
from
council
and
the
media.
We
also
manage
relations
of
hundreds
of
stakeholders
such
as
community
associations,
BIA
s
and
other
advocacy
groups.
We
participated
in
more
than
30
major
community
events
and
conducted
several
public
consultations,
both
online
and
in-person.
N
In
response
by
alarm
regulatory
services
developed
and
implemented
a
temporary
mitigation
strategy
to
meet
the
increased
service
demands
anticipated
as
a
result
of
the
service
download.
In
the
first
year
following
the
download,
we
received
more
than
1500
additional
requests
for
parking
and
760
additional
requests
for
parking.
Sorry
for
noise.
So
it's
a
total
of
about
2200
as
ours
to
address
parking
control.
We
expanded
hours
of
operation
by
seven
and
a
half
hours
per
week,
plugging
most
most
of
the
significant
gaps
at
the
gaps
in
our
coverage
for
noise
complaints.
N
We
implemented
modified
operating
procedures
to
address
after-hours
calls
through
our
alternate
response
program
as
a
result
of
our
response.
Sorry,
as
a
result
of
our
sorry
as
a
result
of
our
response,
I
can
report
the
by
alarm.
Rectory
Services
has
largely
mitigated
the
impacts
of
the
police
download
with
without
requiring
additional
staff
or
resources.
The
alternate
response
program
has
demonstrated
effectiveness,
dealing
with
with
first-time
noise
complaints
of
the
430
alternate
response.
Letters
mailed
to
residents
only
19
required
subsequent
enforcement
action
for
parking
control.
N
The
new
hours
implemented
in
the
mitigation
strategy
captured
99%
of
all
parking
related
service
requests.
I
can
report
that,
at
the
end
of
the
first
full
year,
post
download
only
374
service
requests
for
parking
were
received
outside
of
bylaws
operating
hours
and
had
to
be
addressed
on
the
next
shift.
N
That
amount
is
what
that
amounts
to
one
a
day
in
a
city
of
close
to
a
million
people.
These
results
speak
to
the
knowledge
and
creativity
of
our
team,
while
I
cannot
say
that
the
police
download
has
had
no
impacts.
I
do
believe.
We
have
minimized
the
impact
to
the
greatest
extent
possible,
using
existing
resources.

I
will,
of
course,
be

on

N
C
D
To
me
to
me,
the
bylaw
name
doesn't
serve
just
as
to
what
the
great
folks
in
Rogers
team
do
it's
it's
it's
the
quality
of
life
team
at
the
city
because
they
maintain
the
quality
of
life
of
neighbourhoods.
I
know
that
no
one
likes
to
get
a
parking
ticket
or
no
one
likes
to
you
know,
have
a
dog
incident
in
a
park
or
a
noise
complaint,
but
overall
their
team's
there
to
protect
the
quality
of
life
in
all
of
our
neighborhoods.
So
certainly
very
thankful
for
the
work
his
team
does.
D
I
do
have
specific
questions,
I'd
love
to
hear
Rogers
from
you
specifically
on
hookah.
It
was
reported
in
the
news
that
we
did
get
legal
proceedings
on
one
of
the
one
of
the
businesses
relating
to
hookah,
where
we
at
in
in
the
full
review
process
how
many
are
outstanding
and
what
sort
of
charges
were
laid
so
far.
N
Okay,
so
madam
chair
I
can
report
to
date
that
we
have
about
70
outstanding
charges.
Many
are
still
pending
trial
dates
and
things
that
they're
part
three
charges
that
we've
issued
you
know
I
will
say
that
compliance
isn't
isn't
what
we
expected.
We
you
know
I
can
admit
that
we
did
expect
higher
voluntary
compliance.
You
know
by
this
time
currently
we're
still
investigating
nine
premises
that
we
believe
are
still
in
violation
of
the
bylaw.
So
we've
changed
our
enforcement
strategy
recently
and
I'm
not
going
to
discuss
openly.
N
Well,
there
was
15,
no
one,
but
I
can't
tell
you
that
we've,
you
know
through
the
through
our
investigations
and,
of
course,
as
businesses
become
compliant.
They
they
report
to
us,
you
know,
through
through
general
public
and
other
businesses
that
are
operating.
You
know
they
give
us
intel
on
where
there
there's
other
places
that
we
may
not
have
necessarily
know
one
about.
So.
N
D
Thank
you
now
did
tell
me
about
the.
If
you
were
back
to
your
noise
than
the
the
alternate
response
program
specifically
for
the
noise,
the
seven
percent,
can
you
go
into
more
details?
There
was
a
so
what's
the
the
alternate
program
is
the
ability
for
the
resident
to
to
fill
in?
Maybe
maybe
you
can
elaborate
on
on
what
that
alternate
program?
Is
sir
yeah.
N
So,
madam
chair,
the
the
alternate
response
program
is
something
by
laboratory
services
started,
probably
about
six
or
seven
years
ago,
and
we've
first
time,
complaints
so
first
time
offenses,
where
we've
never
had
an
opportunity
to
to
visit
the
resident
about
a
a
complaint
we
for
some
of
our
some
of
the
violations
we
send
out
to
what's
called
an
alternate
response
letter,
so
it
doesn't
require
an
officer
to
to
attend
the
property.
So
it's
an
efficiency
for
us
and
currently
we
run
about
3,500
to
4,000
altered
response
letters
a
year
prior
to
the
police
download.
N
We
hadn't
used
the
alternate
response
program
for
noise
complaints.
We
had
some
internal
discussion
about
the
efficiency
in
doing
so
and
made
the
decision
that
we
would
send
out
alternate
response
letters
to
first-time
offenders
for
noise
complaints.
So
when
the
complaint
came
in,
our
dispatch
would
check
the
history
on
the
property.
If
there's
no
previous
history
dispatch
would
initiate
a
ladder
to
be
sent
out,
the
letter
outlines
the
fact
that
allegedly,
a
complaint
was
received
on
such
such
data
such
such
time
and
also
outlines
what
the
requirements
are
and
what
the
provisions
of
the
bylaw.
N
D
N
So
it's
you
know,
we
use
it
as
documentation
for
court
person
court
purposes
as
well.
It
shows
that
we've
taken
some
enforcement
action.
You
know
the
next
time
we
go
out
may
result
in
a
charge
and
we
can
use
that
alternate
response
letter
as
evidence
in
court
to
say
that
you
know
they
had
received
some
notification
of
a
previous
complaint.
Okay,.
N
D
You
maybe
on
a
different
matter:
the
now
that
we've
passed
the
property
main
property
standards
and
that
there's
no
there's
no
impending
review
of
the
there's.
No
pending
review
of
the
property
maintenance,
bylaw
I've
seen
it
I
know
that
your
team
members
there's
a
lot
of
there's
a
lot
of
work
and
they
do
diligent
work
and
making
sure
that
we
they're
able
to
respond
to
the
various
property
maintenance
property
standards.
Challenges
that
we
have.
D
You
know
generally,
we
get
good
compliance,
but
there
are
cases
that
go
on
for
months
and
years.
Even
so,
would
there
be
an
opportunity
for
your
group
to
share
with
members
of
committee
kind
of
the
stream
of
what
is
in
the
realm
of
you
know
what?
What?
What
should
we
expect
in
terms
of
a
timeline
like
maybe
an
infographic
of
from
type
of
complaint,
to
resolution?
What's
the
path
to
success,
because
I
do
feel
that
at
times
we're
very
good
at
other
times
it
gets
very
complicated
and
I.
D
You
know
I
feel
like
the
staff
are
responsive
but
I.
You
know
we
deal
with
some
some
level
of
management,
not
necessarily
the
officer
on
the
ground
and
it
gets
challenging,
and
you
know
I
don't
want
to
point
an
officer.
I
don't
want
to
point
a
type
of
issue
but
to
me
in
those
realms
of
property,
maintenance
and
property
standards.
There's
some
there's.
Some
inconsistencies.
N
Absolutely
madam
chair
I
think
I'll
start
with
so
property
maintenance
issues.
Let
the
bylaws
passed
under
the
Ontario
Municipal
Act,
the
the
authority
for
us
to
pass
a
file
on
they
and
the
requirements
for
service
and
the
ability
to
contract
out
the
ability
to
charge.
Those
are
much
different
than
the
property
standards
by
law,
where
the
bylaws
passed
under
the
building
code
act
with
more
strict
timelines
on
how
long
we
have
to
provide
for
the
service
Pio
period.
Things
like
that.
So
for
property,
maintenance
viola,
it's
a
noise
violation.
N
We
issue:
we
can
you
know,
depending
on
case-by-case,
depending
on
the
severity
of
the
issue
we
can
provide
anywhere
from
you
know,
immediate
remediation
or
you
know,
up
to
a
week.
Attendees
and
again,
there
is
no
appeal
period,
there's
so
there's
no
other
impediments
to
us
to
contracting
out
following
the
compliance
deadline
when
it
comes
to
property
standards,
issues.
The
order
that
we
issue
requires
five
days
for
service
minimum
five
days
for
service
and
14
days
for
an
appeal
period.
N
So
when
we
get
into
issues
with
property
standards
and
the
owner
chooses
to
appeal
that
can
delay
the
process
and
at
the
end
of
the
you
know,
appeal
hearings
or
you
know,
if
the
compliance
date
comes
and
goes,
we
we
have,
you
know
a
decision
to
make
whether
we
contract
out
or
charge
and
again,
if
we
decide
to
charge,
you
know
the
court
process.
Often
it
can,
you
know,
hold
these
things
up
to.
N
N
D
That
I,
you
know
that
in
my
mind
proves
my
point
that
most
of
it
is
done
kind
of
internally
and
I.
Think
you
know
the
the
reality
to
is
that
an
officer
is
assigned
to
that
work
and
the
officer
might
work
at
different
periods
and
it
gets
complicated
with
what
you've
described
in
terms
of
you
know,
there's
15-day
compliance.
Then
you
have
to
match
that
with
an
officer's
work,
workload
and
timing.
D
So
is
it
possible
again
to
send
a
little
memo
to
members
of
committee
in
a
could
be
an
infographic
like
use
the
the
the
approach
you'd
like,
but
from
day
of
a
name,
a
type
of
issue
to
the
type
of
resolution
in
the
range?
Because
to
me
you
know
a
year,
compliance
for
shrubs
or
for
a
broken
porch
like
I'm.
L
Thank
You
Madame
Sharon.
Thank
you
to
you
for
your
presentation.
I
appreciate
the
stats
and,
in
particular
the
work
that
you
do.
I
just
want
to
echo
councillor
Flurry's
comments
about
the
role
of
bylaw
on
how
much
I
appreciate
what
my
law
does
you
as
the
chief,
but
also
all
of
your
officers
and
support
staff?
L
We
need
Ottawa
by
law
and
I
Ottawa
by
law
does
a
good
job,
as
he
says,
to
keep
our
city
civil
and
the
bylaws
enforced
I
have
just
two
main
streams
of
questioning
I
know
we
have
some
other
items
and
I
don't
want
to
belabor
this
taxi
industry
and
I
have
ongoing
discussions.
Mr.
Chapman,
you
and
I
have
ongoing
discussions
about
taxi
concerns
and
you've
touched
upon
this
I
know
who
burr
didn't
take
effect
until
legally
take
effect
until
late
last
year,
although
there
have
been
operating
illegally
for
years
before
that,
can
you
just
elaborate?
L
The
main
issues
I
hear
are
how
you
do
random
spot
checks
on
the
uber
drivers
on
the
private
transportation
Hauer.
Are
you
administering
that
to
make
sure
that
they're
properly
licensed
properly
registered
the
cars
are
the
age
that
we're
requiring
the
taxi
zone
issue
that
there
are
claims
that
uber
vehicles
enter
into
taxi
zones,
which
should
be
for
the
exclusive
use
of
taxis
and
the
third
main
issue
are
the
street
hails?
How
are
you
ensuring
that
uber
drivers
are
not
hailing
fares
from
the
street.
N
Madam
chair,
so
this
is
a
difficult
answer
or
question
for
me
to
answer
me
it
just.
It
could
be
detrimental
to
some
of
our
ongoing
investigations,
including
officer
safety,
so
I
won't
get
into
specifics
on
how
we
do
the
enforcement,
but
I
can
tell
you.
I
can
assure
you
that
every
complaint
that
we've
received
from
the
taxi
industry
of
the
general
public,
our
being
are
being
investigated
and
the
rate
of
compliance
for
ptc
companies
right
now
is
very
high.
N
L
It
excuse
me
in
your
report
on
page
11,
you
say
over
2,000
taxi
and
limousine
inspections
were
performed,
but
then
you
say
additionally,
enforcement
activities
for
ptcs
were
implemented,
but
you
don't
give
them
number.
Are
you
able
to
let
this
committee
know
how
many
inspections
were
performed
again?
It
you
only
had
basically
a
quarter
of
2016
right,
but
is
that
number
comparable?
Are
you
inspecting
as
many
PTC's
as
taxis
and
limos.
N
I'm
madam
chair
I
would
say
that
you
know
the
audits
that
we
do
on
a
daily
basis
the
inspections
that
the
officers
first
I
should
say
that
we
do
have
dedicated
staff
that
are
working
almost
on
a
daily
basis
on
on
Toxie
and
ptc
enforcement.
So
those
officers
are
taking
rights.
They're
working
in
the
field,
they're
investigating
complaints
almost
on
a
daily
basis.
So
those
you
know
the
proactive
work
that
we
do
and
not
necessarily
captured
in
all
these
numbers.
L
N
Madam
chair,
you
know
to
be
quite
honest,
I'm
not
sure
yet
I
mean
we.
This
is
why
we're
sitting
on
these
advisory
teams.
The
task
forces
you
know-
will
will
certainly
be
participating
right
now.
Our
enforcement
is,
is
that
of
the
zoning
bylaw
regulations
at
this
point
going
forward.
I'm
not
sure
we
do
have
a
group.
That's
actually
anthony
de
monte
is
the
the
lead
on
for
the
city.
We
have.
N
L
N
Currently,
the
investigation
is
just
the
retail
space,
so
if
the
retail
space
is
permitted,
then
that's
that's
as
far
as
our
enforcement
goes.
What
they're
selling
is
you
know?
It's
not
it's
not
regulated.
It's
you
know.
I
know
the
police
are
investigating
those
complaints
as
well,
and
that's
it's
really
a
police
matter.
L
Your
boss,
mr.
Demonte,
are
we
going
into
the
2018
budget,
given
the
federal
government's
intent
to
legalize
this,
a
data
round
can
of
the
day.
Are
we
properly
budgeting
going
into
next
year
for
by
law,
needs
I,
won't
ask
you
about
police
needs,
but
is
your
shop
adequately
preparing
for
next
year,
Jim.
K
As
mr.
Chapman
indicated
and
there's
a
whole
bunch
of
other
city
partners,
our
public
health
partners,
police
and
we
had
a
first
city
task
force-
that's
been
tasked
by
the
city
manager
to
look
at
the
whole
marijuana
legalization.
You
understand
that.
Yes,
there's
legislation
going
through
now
at
the
federal
level,
the
province
is
indicated,
the
way
they
want
to
handle
that.
K
So
if
it
poses
a
whole
bunch
of
municipal
questions,
it's
not
just
for
us
mo
FCM
is
looking
at
as
well
as
to
zoning
as
to
how
we're
going
to
you
know
manage
that
so,
depending
on
the
model
and
some
of
the
regulations.
So
some
of
the
questions
are
still
outstanding
for
us
to
be
able
to
answer
you
directly.
What
I
can
tell
you
is
we
feel
confident
that
this
this
new
product,
that's
going
to
be
eventually
legal
that'll,
perhaps
what
we're
hearing
from
the
Ontario
government?
K
D
K
D
L
K
Chair,
if
I'm
able
to
to
both
both
councillors,
questions
and
and
our
city
solicitor,
also
weighed
in
on
this,
we
don't
regulate
or
intervene
on
a
process.
That's
currently
illegal
I
mean
you're.
The
other
question
I
was
answering,
is
what's
coming,
but
currently
illegal,
you're
right.
If
we
would
get
a
three
one,
one
response
other
than
as
mr.
Chapman
indicated
looking
it's
in
his
own.
It
becomes
clearly
a
police
matter
and
we're
not
intervening
in
these
situations.
K
L
I
know
we're
talking
about
2016.
All
I'm
saying
is
all
end
is
keeping
one
eye
on
the
chair,
and
one
I
am
the
general
manager
is
I,
expect
that
going
into
2018
the
city
will
properly
estimate
what
our
cost
will
be,
what
our
incremental
new
costs
are
going
to
be,
because
this
is
coming
because
of
the
other
levels
of
government,
our
recouping
tax
revenue
from
this.
We
need
to
clearly
articulate
what
the
impact
will
be
on
our
city,
so
we
can
ask
for
those
costs
to
be
recouped.
That's
my
closing
comment.
Just.
D
J
J
We've
heard
the
term
a
lot,
you
know
sort
of
the
2018
hangover
from
2017,
in
other
words,
we're
not
going
to
have
as
much
in
terms
of
events
potentially
in
the
city.
What
what's
your
sense
so
going
forward
is?
Is
this
a
blip
or
is
this
going
to
be?
Is
this
more
of
a
going
to
be
an
ongoing
pressure,
the
impact
to
2017
on
the
city
and
in
terms
of
the
work
that
you
guys
do
on
a
regular
basis.
N
Madam
chair
yeah
I'm
as
indicating
the
report
I
think
that
the
the
three
when
we're
looking
at
2017
numbers
as
I,
stated
we're
probably
looking
at
about
eighty
thousand
SRS,
which
is
our
highest
and
and
you
know
that
we've
seen
in
history,
so
we're
looking
at
we're
doing
some
analysis
on
you
know
where
are
those
sr
is
coming
from?
And
and
certainly
the
vehicle
for
hire
by
law
has
contributed
to
that
Ottawa
2017,
but
there's
other
issues.
N
I
mean
we
see
blips
in
our
service
requests
numbers
year
after
year
and
weather
weather
impacts
those
service
requests.
We
can
see
that
you
know
years
where
we
had
new
licensing
requirements
come
in,
but
obviously
we
get
a
blip
in
in
some
or
an
increase
in
service
requests
and
I
think
we're
seeing
that
this
year
with
the
new
vehicle
for
hire
viola,
as
well
as
the
the
water
pipe
band.
Okay,.
J
And
and
as
a
follow-up,
you
also
spoke
about
how
you've
been
able
to
contain
the
download
from
police
services
for
the
overnight
and
after
hours,
calls
and
and
and
come
up
with
some
creative
ways
to
sort
of
contain
that.
But
is
that
I
guess
my
question?
Is
that
sustainable
or
as
the
download
continues
and
goes
forward
into
the
future?
Is
that's
something
that
you're
going
to
have
to
come
back
to
us
and
say
we
need
more
money
for
more
resources
to
deal
with
these
issues
that
the
police
used
to
deal
with.
N
Chair
so
I
mean
I,
you
know,
I
can't
say
enough
about
to
the
work
that
my
team
has
done
to
to
be
able
to
take
on
these
additional
service
requests
and
the
strategic
enforcement
initiatives
that
we
put
in
place
for
this
year
to
be
able
to
handle
the
increase
in
in
service
requests
with
existing
resources.
To
answer
your
question,
we're
not
sure
yet
and
we've
done
a
service
review.
N
We
were
just
reviewing
the
the
final
report
that
was
provided
to
us
by
KPMG
and
we
will
be
coming
back
early
next
year
with
with
a
staff
report
and
we'll
you
know
what
we
still
have
some
many
parts
of
that
are
still
moving
parts.
We
still
need
to
do
our
stop
engagement
piece
I'm
still
want
to
meet
with
staff
to
have
that
discussion
and
see
if
there's
any
other
efficiencies
that
can
come
out
of
those
decisions.
You
know
I'm,
not
sure
that
you
know.
Additional
resources
is
the
answer
at
this
point.
N
N
N
M
No,
what
I'm
specifically
wondering
is,
as
a
result,
specifically
of
the
download
of
the
hours
that
o-p-s
is
no
longer
providing
service.
Are
you
able
to
determine
whether
or
not
the
download
resulted
in
an
increase
in
revenue
for
the
city
as
a
result
of
your
officers,
as
opposed
to
the
OTS
being
out
there
issuing
fines.
N
O
C
Turning
into
item
number
four
Community
Partnership
capital
program,
summary
of
funding
how
locations?
Oh,
no,
not
so
fast,
we
do
have
a
public
delegation
and
we
have
a
couple
of
motions
we're
going
to
introduce
mr.
Chen
yay.
Did
you
want
to
say
anything
to
kick
this
off.
O
O
What
we
are
recommending
to
you
is
funding
in
principle,
which
has
in
most
cases
conditions
are
tied
to
them,
the
most
significant
being
that
the
partnering
group
be
capable
of
matching
the
amount
that
they
are
asking
for,
but
in
other
cases
there
are
other
conditions
that
must
be
met
before
the
funding
is
allocated.
Okay,.
C
Thank
you
mr.
shunya
I'm,
going
to
call
the
public
delegation,
but
I'm
also
just
going
to
ask
for
the
conversations
in
the
room
to
either
stop
or
go
outside,
because
there's
a
lot
of
buzz
in
the
room
right
now.
So
the
delegation
is
Linda
Landry,
a
friend
of
Carlington
Hill.
It's
miss
LAN
thing.
I
have
Shay
good
morning,
miss
Landry!
You
have
five
minutes
to
address
the
committee
adjust
to
press
the
button
and
go
ahead.
Thank.
P
Well,
in
that
survey,
youth
under
18
in
low
income,
according
to
the
the
phrase
that
it
uses
citywide,
would
be
16
percent
in
Carlington
that
almost
triples
to
52
percent
of
youth
under
18
in
low-income.
That's
just
a
set.
The
set
the
table
here,
mr.
mark
dish
all
day
has
kindly
dispersed
to
you
the
four-page
letter
that
I
sent
in
this
morning.
It
includes
some
18
or
so
points,
but
I'm
only
going
to
focus
on
one
or
two
so
that
we
can
get
moving
I.
P
Put
in
an
Access
to
Information
request
to
see
Amba's
major
capital
grant
application
because
their
information,
the
information
that
they've
publicly
stated
or
offered
in
proposals
since
February
2016,
has
often
been
changing
on
that
basis,
I
wanted
to
see
exactly
what
they
were
offering,
what
they
were
saying,
because
it
said
a
number
of
things
and
in
the
capital
grant
process
I,
don't
see
any
opportunity
for
community
input
or
any
kind
of
forum.
That's
why
I'm
here
today,
I
understand
that
that
these
are
awarded
under
delegated
authority,
but
I
just
want
to
offer.
P
One
item
I
believe
this
application
needs
further
development
and
I
believe
it
should
be
sent
back
or
put
on
hold
until
it
receives
that
if
you
think
I'm
being
picky
I'm,
not
I'm.
Being
fundamental
here,
I
was
surprised
to
see
in
the
application
that
the
notion
of
a
source
of
water
for
the
for
the
project
is
listed
as
potential.
P
Now
water
is
required
not
only
for
the
actual
building
of
a
pump
track
in
order
to
stabilize
the
the
sloping
lands
that
it
uses
the
aggregate
and
so
on.
Yes,
it's
required
for
that.
It's
also
required
for
safety
and
maintaining
the
surface
afterwards
when
you're
using
it,
because
otherwise
you
can
have
that
that
sort
of
like
an
avalanche
phenomenon,
where
you
have
drier
materials
on
the
surface
that
can
allow
slippage
versus
what's
underneath.
P
These
elements
plus
the
trees
that
they've
even
mentioned
that
at
some
earlier
point,
none
of
that
will
be
anything
other
than
money
thrown
down
the
drain.
If
a
site
that
has
been
beautified
like
that
doesn't
get
proper
attention
in
water.
If
you're
a
homeowner,
you
know
you
can't
get
away
all
through
the
season.
Most
years,
watering,
your
lawn
or
sorry
skipping.
P
The
watering
of
your
lawn
it'll
be
the
same
thing
for
this
site,
except
that
their
application
does
and
even
take
into
account
the
projected
what
they
identify
as
a
projected
$10,000
in
landscaping
costs
I,
don't
think
we
can
afford
to
throw
that
money
down
the
drain.
On
the
other
hand,
homeowners
also
know
the
expense
of
digging
for
a
water
line.
I
thought
it
was
really
funny
that
this
was
going
in
adjacent
to
the
Carlington
reservoir,
and
yet
no
water
is
accessible.
P
So
it's
either
going
to
need
a
dug,
waterline
or
they'll
need
to
be
substantial
cost
provisions
and
also
city
staff
expenses
for
a
water
truck
or
vessel
of
some
kind
to
bring
in
water
to
maintain
the
site
so
that
it
looks
as
good
on
day
60
as
it
does
on
day.
One
I
can
provide
you
with
sources
for
all
of
the
material
I
have
quoted.
If
you
have
any
questions,
okay,.
C
L
You
is
mr.
Shanley.
Is
there
okay?
So
just
to
remind
the
committee
that
last
year
this
committee
and
ultimately
Council
approved
a
partnership
between
the
Ottawa
mountain
bike,
Association
and
the
city
for
a
pilot
project
on
what
is
known
as
the
meadow
or
the
I
call
that
the
plateau
of
Carlington
Hill
and
there
was
a
requirement
there
were
a
few
requirements.
That
councils
listed
on
one
is
that
the
design
of
the
course
have
mandatory
public
consultation.
L
So
we're
not
at
that
stage
yet,
but
the
public
will
be
engaged
in
the
design
of
that
course
right
now,
because
there
are
costs
associated
with
the
pumptrack.
The
Association
has
applied,
rightly
so,
just
like
many
other
community
groups
for
funding,
and
they
are
one
of
the
successful
groups
that
are
listed
here
in
my
discussions
with
mr.
L
So
that's
one
theme,
and
so
what
you
see
here
is
that
staff
and
coordination
with
ombo
will
development
will
develop
assessment
criteria
and
I
want
to
make
sure
the
three
madam
chair
to
staff
that,
before
those
assessment
criteria,
are
finalized,
that
the
public
will
have
an
opportunity
to
not
only
see
that
or
provide
input
to
their
development.
Is
that
the
case.
O
That
is
part
of
our
consultation
on
the
design
of
the
lay
out
on
all
the
other
aspects
of
this
that
we
would
include.
As
part
of
that,
you
know
what
are
we
going
to
look
at
once?
This
is
up
and
running
to
determine
whether
it's
a
good
fit
for
the
location,
its
success,
whether
it's
meeting
user
needs
community
needs
and
all
of
those
things.
So,
in
short,
we
would
see
that
adding
that
two
to
the
11
other
conditions
that
are
part
of
this
package
as
part
of
the
go
forward
with
Amba
thank.
L
You
for
that,
and
can
you
just
inform
this
committee-
do
do
successful
groups
who
receive
this
funding
need
to
demonstrate
that
they
have
comparable
financial
strength
or
dollars
already?
Is
it
a
one-for-one
match?
Do
they
have
to
prove
that
they
have
the
financial
capabilities
to
go,
contribute
to
this
project
chair.
O
L
Madam
chair,
there
are
some
operational
matters
that
I
will
continue
to
work
with
his
laundry
in
the
community
about
as
far
as
what's
before
us
today.
The
grant
I
do
support
this
grant.
I
would
like
to
see
the
grant
for
this
partnership
and
the
other
community
projects
listed,
approved
and
I
will
be
supporting
this
recommendation.
Okay,.
Q
It's
cool
okay,
last
point,
so
we
got
three:
they
got
a
new
scoreboard
and
some
new,
a
batting
cage
which
is
great
because
I
wanted
a
batting
cage,
and
in
this
word
for
a
long
time,
I'm
just
confused
and
frankly
annoyed
at
the
approval
of
the
new
ball
diamond
in
Heritage
perk.
B
Madam
chair,
we
received
the
request
for
new
recreational
services
in
our
recreational
facilities
in
the
area
and
in
principle,
is
what
we're
discussing
here
and
the
principle
of
adding
new
sports
facilities
in
a
city
park
for
use
by
the
general
public
is
something
that
we,
generally
speaking
from
a
recreation
of
access
to
recreational
services,
is
acceptable
to
us.
However,
having
attended
the
meetings
that
you
discussed,
then,
where
this
was
discussed,
we
added
the
additional
requirement
that
this
should
not
proceed
without
the
approval
of
the
local
Community
Association
as
well.
I.
Q
Understand
I
understand
Kevin,
but
the
Community
Association
had
a
meeting
with
the
biggest
turnout
of
the
community
since
I've
been
councilor
where
it
was
unanimous.
No
to
any
of
this.
As
far
as
the
ball
diamond
so
I'm
under
delegated
authority,
you
thought,
without
speaking
to
me,
it
was
okay
to
bring
this
to
committee
to
be
for
approval.
B
This
would
allow
us
to
fund
this,
should
it
be
able
to
proceed
in
the
eyes
of
the
community.
If
we
did
not
actually
ask
for
approval
in
principle
for
only
the
funding,
we
would
not
be
able
to
proceed
at
any
time.
However.
That
is
why
we
actually
included
the
requirement
that
the
community
also
agree
to
this,
and
whether
or
not
that
happens
is
one
of
the
things
that
will
actually
determine
whether
it
gets
funded
once
ready.
Q
B
Three,
madam
chair,
no,
the
dog
park
is
also
a
dog
park,
use
as
an
acceptable
use
within
a
city
park,
as
is
baseball,
as
is
batting
cages,
as
is
scoreboards
I.
Realize
there's
competing
interest
too,
for
what
might
actually
happen
on
this
large
piece
of
real
estate,
which
is
why
we've
required
additional
consultation
with
various
community
associations
to
ensure.
Q
Q
Q
This
part
of
the
application
for
the
diamond.
It
goes
against
everything
that
my
office
and
wait
and
myself
and
I
thought
Kevin
was
working
on
as
far
as
this
application.
I
didn't
I,
don't
understand
how
he
could
approve.
Our
staff
could
approve
this
knowing
full
well,
the
community
doesn't
want
it
here.
There.
Q
D
Point
of
order
just
point
of
order
kid:
could
we
hear
from
Dan
Jenny
on
the
matters
in
front
of
us?
Are
they
matters
that
you're
you,
sir
you're
reporting
on
the
major
minor
capital
grants
through
delegated
authority?
Those
are
going
out
to
funding
they've
been
funded
or
you're.
Coming
for
here
is
the
the
slew
of
requests.
That's
in
front
of
us
I
think
those
are
very
different.
Those
are
three
variants
very
different
scenario.
Could
you
clarify
well
thank.
O
You
chair
what
you
have
before
you:
we
have
an
application
process.
Anyone
can
apply
to
do
anything
that
that
falls
within
the
program
staff
evaluate
what
is
being
proposed
on
the
on
the
recreation
value
of
the
project
itself,
its
feasibility,
whether
in
any
way
it
complies
with
with
the
criteria
of
the
program.
In
this
case
this
particular
application
did
come
in
to
us.
We
have
an
obligation
to
review
comment
and
make
a
recommendation.
We
believe
that,
from
a
technical
point
of
view,
a
baseball
field
in
a
park
is
something
that
is
conceivably
a
good
project.
O
We
understand
that
there's
community
concern
about
it
and
we
have
identified
that
the
project
shouldn't
go
ahead
and
tell
there
is
community
consensus
on
it.
Nothing
has
been
funded,
no
commitments
have
been
made,
and,
even
if
today,
this
state
in
the
report,
the
way
it
is
nothing
would
happen
until
the
community.
A
community
consensus
on
this
was
achieved,
which
we
understand.
This
is
a
divisive
location
with
with
different
factions
looking
for
different
things,
but
at
this
point
all
you'd
be
approving
is
funding
in
principle.
C
Q
Q
C
Say
anything
else,
perfect
I
have
a
motion
I
think
it's
self-explanatory,
I'm
just
going
to
read
it.
Where
is
the
maximum
grant
limit
for
the
Community?
Partnership
minor
capital
program
has
remained
at
$7,500
per
project
since
the
program
was
established
in
2001
and
whereas
it
has
become
increasingly
difficult
for
Community
Partnership
projects
are
located
on
city-owned
property
to
deliver
projects
with
the
7500
maximum.
Excuse
me,
councilors.
C
Just
trying
to
yeah,
whereas
increasing
the
grant
amount,
according
to
the
inflationary
rate,
equates
to
an
increase
from
$7,500
in
2001
two
products
slightly
$10,000
in
2017,
and
whereas
this
increase
to
the
maximum
grant
limit
for
the
program
can
be
accommodated
within
the
existing
annual
capital
budget
envelope
of
three
hundred
and
thirty
thousand
dollars.
Therefore,
a
bit
result
that
the
maximum
grant
limit
for
the
Community
Partnership
minor
capital
program
be
increased
from
7500
to
$10,000
per
project
or
50%
of
the
total
project
cost.
C
Whichever
is
less
for
projects
located
on
city
property
and
be
it
further
resolved
that
the
city's
grant
contribution
for
projects
located
on
other
public
land
remain
at
a
maximum
of
$7,500
per
project
or
33
percent
of
the
total
project
cost,
whichever
is
less
so.
It's
been
16
years
since
we
increased
the
numbers
and
inflation
is
caught
up
to
that.
So
just
asking
that
we
update
this
to
something
more
reasonable.
That's
like
is
it
on
this
go
ahead.
Counselor
does.
O
That's
correct:
what
we're
recommending
today
is
is
a
modest
step
forward
to
increase
the
grant
on
city
projects
on
city
property.
The
school
board
projects
are
generally
three-way
partnership
between
the
school
board,
the
city
and
the
community
group,
and
traditionally
the
amounts
that
they
qualify
have
been
believe.
It's
33
percent,
rather
than
50
percent.
We're
recommending
to
leave
it
at
that
at
this
time,
because
within
the
budget
envelope
that
we
are
absorbing
this
increase
with,
because
schools
can
become
such
a
large
part
of
this
program
very
quickly,
we're
saying
as
a
first
step.
L
C
E
L
May
can
I
just
ask
when
will
this
be
effective
and
is
there
any
value
in
having
this
discussion
during
our
budget
deliberations
just
so,
we
are
aware
what
the
other
pressures
within
Parks
and
Rec
are
I.
Think
there's
tremendous
merit,
madam
chair,
and
what's
being
proposed,
I
just
know
it's
a
challenging
year
and
Parks
and
Rec
is,
is
tight,
but
number
one
is
this:
as
of
January
1st,
are
we
retro
actively
going
to
make
changes?
When
does
this
go
into
effect?
Sure.
O
This
will
be
for
our
2018
project
programs
because,
as
you're
receiving
today,
the
2017
allocations.
So
so
you
now
have
that
information,
so
this
would
be
for
any
application
that
comes
forward
from
from
here
on,
in
the
reason
it
was
brought
forward
today
and
not
as
part
of
budget
is
because
it
really
isn't
a
budget
discussion.
It's
a
policy
discussion
which
the
city
clerk
encourages
us
to
keep
out
of
the
budget
process,
and
the
other
part
is
that
this
has
been
being
done
within
the
existing
budget
envelope.
E
You,
madam
chair
I,
I,
just
have
an
inquiry
for
staff
and
if
they
can
really
explore
I
know
in
rural
in
the
rule
auto
right
now.
We
do
not
permit
the
splash
pad
parks
because
we
don't
have
a
private
services
and
it's
because
it's
on
private
services
and
I
know
that
there
is
an
elate
that
probably
we
haven't
visited
that
for
a
long
time
and
I
heard
that
there
is
a
rural
rural
municipalities
now
in
Ontario
they're,
using
splash
pad
on
backwards
term
of
backwards
and
few
other
areas.
E
E
L
You,
madam
chair
and
I,
will
provide
our
staff
with
this.
I
have
been
writing
with
staff.
Please
detail
their
efforts
with
the
taxi
industry
regarding
the
possible
implementation
and
use
of
soft
meters
and
taxis.
What
requirements
must
be
satisfied
before
the
city
will
approve
the
use
of
soft
meters.
Thank
you.
L
Q
C
And
I
need
that
in
writing.
Counselor.
Thank
you.
Any
other
inquiries.
Okay
under
new
business
I
have
one
item.
Hi,
it's
a
direction
to
staff
in
November.
The
province
will
launch
their
consultation
on
the
long
term.
Affordable
housing
strategy
and
more
information
on
the
federal
government's
national
housing
strategy
is
also
expected
in
November
understanding
that
these
developments
will
have
an
impact
on
the
city's
own
housing
initiatives
and,
as
we
are
approaching
the
halfway
mark
in
our
own
ten-year
housing
and
homelessness
strategy
can
staff.
