Thank

Mr.

I'd
like
to
take
the
opportunity
to
introduce
Heather
Featherston
she's,
been
an
office
administrator
at
st.
john
paul
ii
school
for
the
past
18
years,
and
this
is
her
last
year
as
she's
retiring
she'll
be
a
very
sorely
missed,
along
with
her
dedication
to
the
school,
she's
also
had
the
pleasure
of
being
the
choir
director
and
has
been
involved
in
many
drama
productions
over
the
years.
I
actually
think
the
mayor

I

point
too.

Friends

B
A
Has

his
time
and
energy
to
giving
all
our
kids
in
our
community
equal
access
to
opportunities
and
possibilities?
As
chair
of
the
Boys
&
Girls
Club
of
Ottawa,
his
leadership
exemplified
extraordinary
commitment
to
making
our
city
a
better
place.
Graham
has
been
a
great
role
model
to
many,
who
has
led
by
example,
showing
others
how
to
serve
the
community
and
make
our
city
a
better
place
today
and
in
the
future.
A
B
A
He
Girls
Club
of
Ottawa.
He
helped
to
develop
a
very
rich
series
of
free,
structured
life,
changing
programs
in
four
key
programming
pillars.
These
are
purposely
designed
to
drive
personal
development,
empower
youth
to
reach
their
full
potential
and
give
them
the
confidence
and
skills
for
life,
education,
physical
activity
and
healthy
lifestyle,
leadership
and
social
skills
and
creative
arts.
The
club
now
has
the
greatest
reach
and
impact
for
at
youth,
children
and
youth
across
our
city.
A
Graham
is
led
by
example,
in
teaching
others
how
to
better
serve
the
community
and
give
back
and
I'd
like
to
take
this
opportunity
to
sincerely
thank
Graham
for
as
many
contributions
as
well
as
I,
see
as
family
members
here
and
Colleen,
and
the
new
president
Stephen
of
the
Boys
and
Girls
Club
and
many
others
Paul
our
Gary,
said
Danielle
from
the
Sens
foundation.
How
are
you
Danielle?
You
see
I've
gone
down
that
slippery
slope
now.
I'm
gonna
have
to
name
everyone's
generous
sa
settle
casual,
so.
A
D
You
know
it's
about.
12
years
ago,
I
went
to
my
first
tour.
The
Boys
and
Girls
Club
and
I
was
quite
apprehensive.
Coming
up,
I
didn't
know
how
rough
the
kids
would
be
and
whether
I'd
fit
in
in
my
blue
suit
and
so
I
was
a
little
bit
nervous
and
I
walked
in
and
I
found
this
incredible
world.
There
were
these
wonderful
kids
who,
despite
significant
challenges,
we're
just
inspiring
they're
dedicated.
They
want
to
achieve
they're
they're,
just
generous
beyond
any
group
of
kids.
That
I
know
you
know
and
our
leaders
for
life
program.
D
These
kids
are
their
minimum
requirement,
is
70
hours
of
volunteer
work
per
year
like
so,
I
began
a
journey
there,
and-
and
it's
been
very
satisfying
personally
for
me
and
I-
know
I
just
wanted
to
thank
a
few
people
for
that
and
I'd
like
to
thank
my
great
family.
It's
become
a
bit
of
a
family
business.
D
My
wife
Katie
was
a
great
mentor
at
the
club
and
has
the
incredible
mentee
and
my
son
James,
whose
runs
the
camps
mini
golf
tournament,
and
my
son
Jack,
who
is
both
volunteer
and
has
worked
at
the
club.
I've
had
many
many
friends
who
I've
met
and
through
the
club
and
many
friends
who
have
joined
me
in
this
initiative
on
the
board,
like
Jerry,
said
and
and
friends
like
Connie
and
Steve
leaf,
have
been
phenomenal,
Connie
Duncan
Steve
Lee.
D
D
We
get
very
little
public
funding.
So
this
is
all
the
city
coming
together
to
make
a
difference.
It's
where
integration
really
happens
in
this
city,
often
in
the
clubhouse
there'll,
be
kids
from
nine
different
speaking
nine
different
languages
on
the
clubhouse
floor,
they're
all
the
same,
because
they're
all
different
and
thank
you
for
coming
today.
Thank
you
for
not
my
friends
for
coming
today.
Thank
you
for
supporting
me
in
this
effort,
because
really
this
is
your
award
and
I'm
accepting
on
behalf
of
you.
So
thank
you.
Thank
you
very
much.
A
Thank
you
again,
Graham
and
Katie
and
remembers
the
family
and
friends
of
the
Boys
and
Girls
Club
in
the
Senators
foundation
for
being
with
us.
Apparently,
this
is
a
very
bad
year
for
hay
fever
and
allergies
and
I'm
really
stuffed
up
so
I'm
hoping
it's.
Obviously
you
can't
catch.
It's
not
like
a
cold,
but
I
was
taking
reactant
I.
Think
I
took
the
drowsy
version,
so
if
I
start
falling
asleep
in
the
middle
of
the
meeting,
I've
asked
Matt
or
Tim.
To
give
me
a
kick
to
wake
me
up.

Mr.

I'd
like
to
thank
all
the
volunteers
that
do

on
our

and
on

and
they
really
help
the

We
are
pleased
to
be
with
you
this
morning
for
the
presentation
of
our
annual
report
of
the
Ottawa
Community
Housing
Corporation
and
our
sole
shareholder,
the
city.
I
Its
innovation,
the
one
year
milestone
of
the
implementation
of
Ottawa
community
housing.
One
number
resulted
in
more
timely
and
efficient
responses
to
tenant
inquiries,
while
providing
life
support
on
every
call.
She,
the
portfolio
management
framework,
Ottawa
community
housing,
explored
how
to
best
leverage
the
value
of
Ottawa
community
housing
assets
to
address
capital
investment
shortfalls,
guiding
principles
and
targets
have
been
created
to
provide
guidance
for
future
divestiture
of
properties
and
for
acquisition
of
land,
significantly
assisting
Ottawa
community
housing
to
position
itself
to
respond
to
opportunities
for
potential
growth
and
redevelopment.
I
The
multi-year
multi-million
dollar
redevelopment
of
Rochester
Heights
began
in
2017
with
the
successful
rehousing
of
26
households.
The
phase
1
renewal
of
this
aging
townhome
community
into
a
vibrant
mixed-use
mixed
housing,
complex
of
148
apartments,
is
projected
to
be
completed
in
2020,
Leicester
City
mother
tower
come
no.
B
I
Government
was
a
turning
point
for
affordable
housing
providers
across
the
country.
The
future
investments
are
set
to
help
advance,
affordable
housing
and
reduce
homelessness
in
Canada.
Och
has
also
been
working
with
partners
such
as
the
City
of
Ottawa
and
Ottawa
Public
Health.
In
order
to
be
prepared
for
the
legalization
of
cannabis,
the
success
of
Ottawa
community
housing
would
not
have
been
possible
without
the
ongoing
efforts
and
tireless
engagement
of
all
our
partners,
including
our
shareholder,
the
City
of
Ottawa
in
building
stronger
communities.
B
L
The
opportunity
to
present
the
2017
highlights
of
our
Community
Housing
Corporation.
The
2017
annual
report
demonstrates
the
dictation
of
och
to
its
mission
and
values
as
a
leader
in
the
delivery
of
affordable
housing
and
in
Community
Housing
and
working
with
others
towards
safe
and
healthy
communities.
Last
year,
the
cooperation
also
celebrated
its
15th
anniversary
Gela
privatized,
as
originally
kept
I'm.
L
In
various
board
of
directors
here
in
the
community,
but
also
across
the
province
Arabic,
community
housing
continues
to
thrive
by
looking
for
innovative
solutions
for
social
and
affordable
housing
challenges
in
Ottawa
through
the
asset
management,
renewal,
och,
County
news
to
leverage
and
maximize
the
use
of
its
physical
and
financial
resources
to
respond
to
opportunities
for
growth
and
redevelopment,
as
well
as
retaining
and
maintaining
its
existing
portfolio.
O
CHC
delivered
a
record
year
for
our
capital
investment
in
2017.
L
The
cooperation
has
continued
its
commitment
to
the
environment
through
its
long
term
strategy,
the
Eco
to
plan,
which
also
contributes
positively
to
the
living
environment
of
tenants
and
generates
savings
whenever
possible,
och,
as
was
very
thankful
to
receive
funds
from
the
City
of
Ottawa,
which
was
the
City
of
Ottawa
energy
evolution,
catalyst
program.
The
cooperation
will
aim
at
building
its
first
Net
Zero
construction
with
the
Rochester
Heights
redevelopment.
L
Own
CH
has
also
built
one
of
Canada's
largest
array
of
solar
panel
in
social
housing
enough
to
power,
12
ohms
och
County
news
to
seek
ways
to
improve
the
quality
of
life
of
our
tenants
in
all
of
our
communities.
The
majority
of
our
tenants
house
come
from
the
social
housing
registry
waiting
lists
and
the
tenants
often
require
additional
support.
As
such,
och
continues
to
engage
with
over
100
partners,
local
organization
to
assess
and
explore
different
way
in
the
expansion
of
on-site
support
services
to
tenants
to
address
higher
needs
or
complex
histories.
L
Och
pursues
the
enhancements
of
the
tenant
experience
approach
by
recognizing
that
the
positive
experience
is
critical
to
meeting
its
mandate
and
enabling
successful
tendencies.
One
significant
change
highlighted
by
our
chair
was
the
expansion
of
the
call
center
to
a
one
number
approach.
Just
last
year
alone,
we
recorded
240
thousand
calls
OCH
c
has
negotiated
greater
access
to
low-cost
internet
services
for
tenants
through
local
providers
with
rogers
and
also
with
capital
Freenet,
as
it
improved
its
presence
through
CDH
social
media
platforms.
L
Uch
saw
an
increase
of
two
hundred
and
seventy
five
percent
of
its
public
engagement
and
also
we
have
implemented
an
integrity
policy
and
it's
procedure
of
the
integrated
policy
aim
to
establish
oversight
and
general
direction
regarding
claims
of
fraud,
waste
or
potential
misuse
of
och
seized
assets.
The
financial
audited
statement
of
och
show
that
och
managed
within
its
operating
budget
first
and
yon,
confirmed
that
the
2017
financial
statements
are
fair,
accurate
and
consistent,
very
important
for
our
cooperation.
L
Earlier
this
year
it
was
named
one
of
the
National
Capital
Region's
top
employer
really
proud
of
the
staff.
We
are
grateful

since
many
years
to
transform

your
ongoing
guidance
and
support,
make
a
tremendous
difference
in
our
ability
to
build
homes
and
invest
in
our
buildings
home
to
approximately
32,000
residents
of
Ottawa,
on
behalf
of
the
Board
of
Directors,
the
staff,
the
partners
and
the
tenants.
Thank
you.
B
D
M
You
thank
you,
your
worship
and
good
morning,
members
of
council
and
thank
you
mr.
G
Gayle
and
councillor
flurry
for
your
report
to
Council
this
morning.
We
have
a
lengthy
agenda,
so
I'll
keep
my
comments.
A
very
brief.
As
you
both
know,
the
number
of
units
in
River
Ward
is
very
high.
The
second
highest
in
the
city
and
I
certainly
appreciate
the
service
and
programming
that
you
provide
my
residents,
but
also
to
residents
across
the
city.
Two
questions
for
you:
the
housing
stock
that
och
has
the
average
life
is,
is
older,
I
know
mr.
M
jiggle
you've
said
this
many
times
and
with
older
housing
stock,
including
including
the
stock.
In
my
ward,
you
have
a
number
of
challenges.
The
operating
costs
are
quite
high.
Can
you
talk
about
that
challenge
in
particular
and
over
the
perhaps
a
medium
to
longer
term,
what
the
plan
is
to
deal
with
older
stock
or
whether
you
have
a
vision
to
replace
that
older
stock
with
with
a
different
mix.
L
Great
question:
thank
you.
Consider
this
is
a
question
that
is
across
our
portfolio:
it's
not
only
in
one
specific
Ward.
So
when
you
have
a
portfolio
of
48
years
old,
typically,
what
you
have
to
look
at
is
renewing
the
portfolio,
so
the
strategy
about
a
portfolio
renewal
is
really
about
acquisition,
divestiture
and
also
modernization
of
some
buildings.
L
We
know,
for
instance,
that
more
and
more
housing
providers
in
UK
or
Australia
or
in
Canada
are
refurbishing
really
retrofitting
their
mid-rise
and
I
rise
building,
where
in
some
cases,
especially
for
townhouses
community,
you
can
look
at
potentially
increasing
density
by
diverse
sitting
or
divesting
or
by
really
investing
further
in
terms
of
operating
costs.
Och
has
invested
quite
significantly
in
the
last
five
years
in
green
initiatives
to
reduce
the
operating
cost.
So
through
the
water
programs,
we
have
implemented
LED
lights
system.
L
So
what
we
are
saying
year
over
year
is
a
reduction
of
cost
on
the
utility
side
which
offset
the
cost
on
the
maintenance
side
for
the
most
properties,
each
and
every
property
that
och
have
been
prioritized.
And
accordingly,
what
we're
looking
through
the
plan
is
to
make
sure
that
each
and
every
property
at
any
given
point
of
a
year
and
a
plan
of
ten
years
will
be
addressed
either
for
retrofit
or
for
divestiture
or
for
redevelopment.
M
For
the
more
minor
expenditures
on
aesthetics,
not
the
expense
of
roof
replacement
or
the
boilers,
but
just
keeping
the
grounds
clean,
the
houses
or
the
apartment
buildings,
you
know
well
painted
the
grass
maintained.
That
is
an
issue
and
in
many
of
the
och
communities
as
well.
Can
you
just
address
that
briefly?
How
does
och
stay
on
the
ball
to
keep
the
properties
maintained
and
standards
high,
so.
L
It's
an
ongoing
investment
that
we're
making,
in
fact
in
your
award,
and
it
will
be
announced
very
soon.
Caldwell
will
see
a
retrofit
of
the
envelope,
so
the
envelope
will
be
modernized
in
the
community
to
respond
to
structural
issues
that
we
were
facing
with
some
of
the
cladding
and
over
there
in
most
of
the
communities.
What
we're
seeing
is
always
the
engagement
of
the
tenants
and
the
resident
to
participate
in
the
decision-making
about
beautifying
the
community.
L
So
when
we're
talking
about
buildings,
for
instance,
we
have
a
welcome
home
program
where
we
are
currently
addressing
most
of
our
lobbies
in
our
high-rise
and
mid-rise,
and
the
engagement
is
done
with
the
residents
with
the
community
with
elected
members
as
well,
to
ensure
that
when
you
come
to
our
community
are
saying
it's
always
a
pleasant
experience
and
your
first
contact
with
you
know
your
home
is
more
than
often
in
an
I
rise
or
mid
rise.
Your
Lobby
so
for
us
is
very
important,
so
we
started
and
part
of
the
community
and
the
fabric.

A
M
Mr.
mayor,
thank
you.
I
didn't
speak
at
committee
just
because
we
would
have
held
the
community
member
for
a
number
of
hours
and
this
dispatched
unanimously,
but
I
wanted
to
speak
today
briefly
to
to
thank
two
sets
of
people
and
just
explain
why
this
is
so
important.
First
of
all
to
the
Carlington
residents,
who
were
active
and
engaged
in
this
two-year
process.
I
do
want
to
acknowledge
and
thank
them
as
well,
city
staff,
Chris
Bower
and
his
team,
who
were
engaged
with
the
CDP
into
Council,
who
unanimously
supported.
M
Proceeding
with
with
this
study
and
review
the
Merivale
Road
north
is
basically
in
the
Carlington
community,
from
Caldwell
to
the
south.
To
Carling
to
the
north.
Merivale
is
the
spine
of
this
community
of
the
alexander
community
on
the
east,
and
they
called
well
and
Carlington
west
communities
on
the
west
side
and,
frankly,
Merivale
road
needs
a
facelift.
This
is
not
an
aesthetically
pleasing
part
of
Carlington.
M
So
the
CDP
sets
the
framework
for
that
now,
which
is
very
good,
and
it's
just
the
document
over
many
years
that
the
development
community
and
the
community
as
a
whole
will
follow.
So
we're
quite
excited
with
the
possibilities
that
will
be
happening.
We
know
change
is
coming
and
the
CDP
really
sets
out
that
framework.
So
there
was
significant
involvement
from
the
community,
which
I'm
very
pleased
with,
and
mr.
mayor
I
will
be
supporting
this
today
very
strongly
and
recommend
council
support
this
as
well.
Thank.

And
whereas
the
report
indicates
that
the
net
proceeds
from
the
sale
of
property
a
is
expected
to
be
received
by
the
city
in
two
installments,
with
the
first
installment
estimated
at
ten
million
dollars
being
provided
in
2018
2019
and
whereas
25%
the
net
proceeds
from
the
first
installment
of
both
property.
A
120
Metcalfe
street
191,
Laurier,
Avenue
West
would
provide
up
to
two
and
a
half
million
dollars
in
funding
to
support
new,
affordable
housing,
development
in
Ottawa
under
the
city's,
affordable
land
and
funding
policy.
K
Once
the
sale
of
property,
a
120
Metcalf
street
191,
Laurier
Avenue
West
is
finalized
and
be
it
FURTHER
RESOLVED
that
staff
be
directed
to
bring
forward
funding
options
for
the
remaining
25%
allocation
to
the
affordable
housing
reserve
for
councils
consideration
at
the
time
the
second
installment
is
received.
Do
you
want
me
to
speak
to
that
now?
Mr.
Merrit?
Yes,
well,
thank
you
as
you'll
note
in
the
library
report,
there
was
a
recommendation
from
staff
to
waive
our
policy.
K
We
updated
our
policy
in
2017,
and
this
council
has
been
very
clear
about
our
policy
when
it
comes
to
affordable
housing.
Are
there
piece
of
the
land?
A
25%
of
the
net
proceeds
are
to
go
to
affordable
housing
and
for
those
of
you
that
joined
us
this
morning
to
hear
the
annual
report
card
from
the
Alliance
to
End
Homelessness.
You
will
know
that
we
are
far
away
from
reaching
our
goal
of
ending
chronic
homelessness
by
2024,
and
we
heard
from
dr.
K
Jeff
Turnbull
this
morning
that
we
need
to
change
the
way
we're
doing
things
because
we're
not
we're
not
advancing
the,
and
so
we
really
need
to
think
about
that.
But
certainly
the
last
thing
we
need
to
do
is
wave
our
own
policy,
which
is
one
of
the
few
mechanisms
we
have
to
actually
get
more
money
locally
into
our
affordable
housing
portfolio,
and
so
the
motion
that
councilman,
Kenny
and
I
are
advancing.
Today
is
saying
no,
we
are
not
waving
our
policy.
K
The
city
staff
recommended
that
we
waive
the
policy
and
councillor
Holmes
and
I
at
the
time,
moved
this
exact
motion
to
say
to
Council
that
we
need
to
adhere
to
our
policy
and
council
supported
that
on
an
18
to
6
division,
and
so
today,
I'm
hoping
that
it
will
be
the
same
outcome
that
the
policy
that
was
approved
by
Planning
Committee
in
2017
and
council
will
be
upheld,
and
we
will
continue
to
support
the
need
for
putting
funds
into
our
affordable
housing
portfolio.
So
I
just
hope
that
you
will
support
the
motion
today.
Thank
you.
K
G
You,
mr.
mayor
and
and
colleagues
I'm
very
happy
to
second,
this
motion
I
worked
with
councilor
Dean's,
as
you
know,
as
the
chair
of
CPSC
over
the
last
few
days
on
this-
and
you
know
this-
the
library
file
has
been
a
long
time
coming.
It's
you
know
we
spent
well
I
guess
we
could
go
way
back,
but
in
this
term
you
know.
G
Since
the
beginning
of
the
term,
we
looked
for
a
location
that
was
a
long
drawn
out
process,
but
in
the
end,
I
believe
that
the
funding
model
that
was
put
in
front
of
us
at
library
board
was
a
good
funding
model
and
I.
Think
that
word
that
just
that
much
closer
to
realizing
a
new
library
in
the
City
of
Ottawa,
which
you
know
I
fully
support.
But
as
kind
Dean's
pointed
out,
we
do
have
a
policy
that
you
know
proceeds
from
sale
of
our
properties,
including
you
know,
a
property
like
the
the
library.
G
25
percent
should
go
to
affordable
housing,
and
you
know
we
we
are
starting
to
I,
mean
councillor
Taylor
this
morning
at
the
Alliance
to
End
Homelessness.
You
know
pointed
out
very
eloquently
that
there
are
a
lot
of
different
tools
that
we
need
to
use
to
get
there.
We
are
looking
at
transit
oriented
development
very
seriously.
Now
we've
got
that
interdepartmental
working
group
to
look
at
opportunities
around
around
our
light
rail
stations
and
our
bus
rapid
transit
stations.
G
Looking
at
our
air
rights
looking
at
what
we
can
do
with
supportive
housing
and
affordability
right
across
the
the
range
and
supports
across
the
range
that
we
need
them.
But
in
the
end
we
need
the
funding
to
go
along
with
it.
Our
housing
providers
know
what
they're
doing,
but,
but
without
the
the
bit
of
funding
that
we're
able
to
to
put
on
the
table,
we
won't
move
forward
in
the
way
that
that
we
should
be
so.
G
C
O
O
2019,
your
vacancy
tax
rebate
program
is
no
longer
in
existence.
That
leaves
six
point
nine
million
dollars
in
tax
room
available.
We
will
be
using
a
portion
of
that
to
service
the
depth
for
the
library,
but
only
once
we
issue
the
debt,
which
is
expected
to
be
in
2020
or
20
21,
so
that
leaves
the
six
point
nine
available
in
nineteen
and
twenty,
and
so
we
are
taking.
O
This
motion
recommends
taking
two
point:
five
at
that
six
point:
nine
in
2019
to
contribute
to
the
housing
reserve
when
we
receive
the
second
part
of
the
sale
of
the
land
they're.
Also,
the
recommendation
recommends
that
we
come
forward
with
options
at
that
time,
so
the
money
from
the
sale
of
the
land
is
still
flowing
to
the
project,
we're
just
finding
another
way
to
make
the
housing
reserve
whole
as
a
result
of
the
sale.
Okay,.
O
A
N
Thank
You
mr.
mayor
yeah,
I'm
on
the
speakers,
because
I
want
to
have
I
want
to
ask
questions
of
staff,
but
while
I'm
here
I
would
just
say
that
I
entirely
support
councillor,
Dean's
and
McKinney's
motion
I
think
it
makes
a
lot
of
sense.
There
is
no
compelling
reason
to
waive
ourselves
from
our
own
policy
in
this
case,
but
the
question
that
I
have
is
I
know.
One
of
the
important
outcomes
of
the
decision.
We're
about
to
make
is
changing
the
way
that
we
approach
the
design
award
and
construction
contract
award
process
in
February
2017.
N
The
report
that
was
before
us
then
anticipated
approvals
from
Council
for
the
design
award
and
now
the
recommendation
is
that
be
delegated
to
staff
and
so
I
guess.
My
question
is:
is
in
terms
of
the
design
award
process,
the
scoring
the
grid
that
this
delegated
authority
would
grant
to
staff
I'm,
hoping
that
stuff
can
articulate
how
that
will.
If
it's
either
is
it
already
established?
If
it's
not
established,
how
will
staff
determine
the
various
scoring
BRIT
approaches
to
the
existing
shortlist
and
what
what
will
be
the
process?
N
E
Mayor
so
Council
last
year
approved
that
we
would
use
a
procurement
model
of
design-bid-build,
so
that
led
us
to
a
process
of
seeing
our
request
for
qualifications,
and
we
shortlisted
down
to
a
number
of
teams
and
the
request
for
proposals
which
has
gone
to
the
shortlist
of
teams
is
out
on
the
street
at
this
point
in
time.
Mr.
gonchi
can
provide
more
information
on
the
actual
grid,
scoring
elements.
I
don't
have
those
in
front
of
me,
but
he
does.
E
The
the
the
bids
will
be
scored
by
a
panel
involving
two
staff
from
the
Ottawa
Public
Library,
two
staff,
from
the
city
of
Ottawa
and
to
external
architects
who
do
not
work
in
the
Ottawa
market.
We
picked
them
deliberately
to
avoid
conflict
of
interest,
to
advise
the
process
and
provide
it,
and
the
process
is
being
overseen
by
a
fairness.
Commissioner.
As
to
public
consultation,
it
is
not
normally
our
course
of
business
to
do
public
consultation
during
a
procurement
process.
E
That's
that
would
be
very
difficult
to
do,
but
there
has
been
extensive
public
consultation
so
far
on
the
program
for
the
public
library
over
5,000
people
were
involved
in
that
process
and
that
helped
form
the
request
for
proposals
that
group
of
5,000
will
be
contacted
again
once
the
the
can.
We
commence
the
design
process
for
the
library
and
have
a
selected
architect
on
board,
and
we
are
looking
for
extensive
consultation
during
the
design
process.
In
fact,
we
did
something
we
don't
normally
do.
E
Is
we've
increased
the
weight
of
the
criteria
for
the
stakeholder
engagement
program
for
the
architects
to
send
a
very
strong
signal
that
public
engagement
during
the
processes
of
a
critical
priority
to
us,
and
so
that,
during
the
process
of
design,
we
anticipate
considerable,
more
public
engagement
on
many
aspects
of
design
and
the
library
board
did
ask
that
we
do
that
and
enhance
that,
and
also
asked
that
we
report
back
to
them
regularly
on
the
design
status
that
was
requested.
Library
board.
P
P
The
request
for
proposal
actually
details
developing
the
evaluation
criteria,
so
there's
basically
accommodation
of
technical
merit
and
also
financials
to
technical
merits
are
detailed
in
terms
of
how
the
point
system
will
work
and
to
be
mr.
Welles's
point.
Basically,
there's
been
an
increased
emphasis
on
the
public
engagement
component
and
it's
actually
a
rated
component
of
the
of
the
submission.
Okay.
N
C
Q
Q
O
The
four
and
a
half
percent
is
is
simply
an
estimate,
we're
sitting
at
three
and
a
half
percent
for
20-year
debt
right
now.
So
if
markets
move
against
us,
it'll
be
more,
but
markets
tend
to
move
fairly
slowly,
so
we
are
anticipating.
1%
is
probably
reasonable.
Is
there
an
option
to
extend
or
reduce
the
term?
If
you
reduce
the
term,
of
course
the
the
debt
servicing
is
more
so
we
would
not
recommend
that
we
try
to
match
it
to
the
life.
O
We
were
told
at
the
committee
that
at
25
years,
there's
going
to
need
to
be
a
major
refurbishment
of
this
facility
at
that
time,
so
you
would
not
want
to
go
for
debt
that
is
longer
than
25
years,
because
in
25
years,
you're
likely
to
be
looking
for
more
money
to
do
a
major
refurbishment
of
it.
So
we
did
a
20-year
debt
as
sort
of
the
optimal
time
for
this
type
of
building.
What.
O
Debt
servicing
would
go
down.
It
wouldn't
likely
go
down
that
significantly,
because,
typically,
when
you
have
a
longer-term
period,
they're
looking
for
a
higher
rate
or
return
as
well,
so
you're
offsetting
your
principal
is
divided
over
five
more
years,
but
your
interest
rate
is
a
little
bit
higher,
so
there
would
be
some
marginal
change,
but
we
don't
see
it
as
being
significant.
It's
also
very
difficult
to
get
25-year
debt.
The
market
doesn't
entertain
that
it's
basically
you
do
they
do
it
in
ten
year
increments.
Q
Thank
you,
that's
helpful
and
then
the
the
second
question
is
on
page
38.
The
requirement
was
assessed
against
the
affordability
of
that
additional
debt
and
consideration
of
the
city's
overall
capital
plan.
What
are
the
implications
for
our
overall
capital
plan?
How
close
are
we
coming
to
our
self-imposed
cap?
O
Are
not
the
we're
still
fairly
far
away
from
our
self-imposed
debt
limit?
80
million
dollars
is
almost
I
use
this
term,
because
it's
not
when
you're
an
individual
citizen.
Eighty
million
dollars
is
almost
immaterial
when
you
look
at
our
total
a
depth
of
we're
coming
close
to
two
billion
dollars,
so
it
does
not
affect
our
borrowing
capacity
at
all.
P
You,
your
worship,
yeah
I,
I'm,
going
to
support
the
motion.
I
think
it's
important
for
people
who
are
concerned
about
the
fiscal
aspect
of
this
to
look
at
where
we
came
from
on
it
back
in
2006.
We
had
a
description
of
the
library
we
needed
as
a
new
main
library,
and
the
proposal
then
was
for
two
hundred
and
seventy
one
thousand
square
feet
facility.
P
This
facility,
the
city
portion,
is
less
than
half
of
that
and
at
less
than
half
and
half
of
that
it
still
double
the
the
current
facility.
So
we
meet
the
need,
but
at
the
same
time
we're
much
more
reasonable
from
a
cost
perspective
in
terms
of
building
it
also
to
fix
up
the
current
one,
you're
looking
at
between
50
and
70
million
dollars
and
that
that
has
to
be
factored
into.
P
So
if
you
look
at
the
city's
portion
of
a
hundred
million
dollars
and
realize
that
you
had
to
spend
seventy
anyway
and
then
deduct
the
twenty
million
you're
going
to
get
from
the
sale
of
the
current
one,
you're
left
with
what
ends
up
being
a
net
cost
of
roughly
10
million
dollars
and
that
ten
million
dollars
modernizes
our
library
service
in
a
way
that
the
public
is
really
going
to
appreciate.
It
moves
the
library
a
little
bit
closer
to
the
center.
P
Obviously
the
best
place
where
the
library
would
have
been
Centrepointe,
the
geographical
center
of
Ottawa,
but
but
since,
since
nobody
would
move
that
motion,
including
me,
I,
think
it.
It
makes
a
lot
of
sense
to
to
move
it
to
a
place,
that's
more
accessible
to
all
forms
of
transportation
and
to
a
place
that
into
a
space
that
is
much
more
modern
and
much
more
consistent
with
what
libraries
are
going
to
be
in
the
next
50
years.
P
So
people
are
concerned
about
the
cost,
as
many
of
us
were
back
in
2006
we're.
So
we've
now
brought
in
a
facility.
That's
a
public
public
partnership
with
the
archives
we're
bringing
in
a
facility
that
is
less
than
half
the
size
of
what
was
proposed
in
2006
and
I.
Think
the
long
journey
has
brought
us
to
the
right
place.
M
M
Good
morning,
my
question
is:
is
I'm
going
to
start
off
with
the
parking
component,
which
is
the
fifth
item
of
the
recommendation:
18
million
dollar
underground
parking
facility,
current
Central,
Library
and
Metcalf
from
what
I
understand,
does
not
offer
any
parking.
Obviously,
people
are
free
to
park
on
the
street
or
use
private
parking
and
in
some
of
the
private
buildings
around
there.
But
talk
to
me
please
about
why
an
18
million
dollar
underground
parking
facility
is
required
when
we're
on
the
LRT
line.
E
Mr.
mayor
I
will
actually
take
that
question
if
the
counselor
will
tolerate
that
the
the
issue
is
more
about
building
a
facility
of
the
size
considerably
larger
than
the
existing
main
Central
Library.
That
will
have
multiple
purposes,
including
libraries
and
events
that
will
be
attracted
to
the
site
because
of
the
joint
use
by
OPL
on
the
librarian
Archives
Canada.
Unlike
the
main
downtown
library,
there
are
not
a
lot
of
adjacent
private
Lots
where
people
can
choose
to
park
if
they
wish,
but
we
did
try
to
find
that
equilibrium.
E
We
want
to
encourage
people
to
use
public
transit.
So
we
were
we
minimize
the
parking
footprint
to
what
we
thought
was
most
reasonable
at
200
spots,
which
is
just
one
level
of
parking.
Our
consultants
at
one
point
had
recommended
considerably
more,
but
we
chose
to
find
that
sweet
spot
between
providing
enough
parking
to
support
the
events
and
programming,
but
also
not
attracting
more
traffic
than
necessary,
we're
also
providing
alternative
modes
for
cycling
and
walking
access
as
well.
So
we
feel
we
found
the
right
balance.
You
wouldn't
build
a
city.
E
E
M
E
Mayor,
they
are
not
because
the
city
is
owning
and
managing
and
paying
for
the
garage
through
parking
revenues
that
we
will
recruit.
Had
they
been
involved
as
a
partner
just
would
have
made
it
more
complex.
Any
visitors
will
pay
the
market
posted
right.
That
council
will
approve
to
the
site
so
with
the
city
will
be
the
recipient
of
the
revenues
with.
M
E
M
No
I
don't
disagree
with
the
general
manager
that
the
new
Central
Library
will
provide
certainly
more
space,
more
opportunities,
more
events
that
will
have
perhaps
more
visitors
come
to
it.
But
it's
very
difficult
for
me
to
accept
that
we're
going
to
build
we're
purposely
building
on
the
LRT
corridor
to
make
it
a
viable
library
for
people
at
the
four
corners
of
the
city
to
get
to,
and
we
want
to
spend
18
million
dollars
for
an
underground
parking
lot
so
that
that
one
is
is
difficult
for
me
to
accept.
M
My
other
question
is
just
about
the
the
estimated
proceeds
from
the
sale
of
the
current
Central
Library,
the
one
at
120
Metcalf.
It's
estimated
that
the
city
will
acquire
twenty
million
dollars
for
that
site
and
I
understand.
Part
of
the
equation
is
a
number
of
years
that
the
opl
will
get
that
Center.
Rent-Free
can
I
be
reminded
what
the
what
the
total
sum
of
that
free
rent
adds
up
to.
R
Live
mr.
mayor,
the
purchase
price
is
estimators
is
indicated
as
20
million
dollars
as
far
as
the
extra
benefits
that
we're
going
to
be
getting.
When
you
consider
the
actual
library
box
itself,
it's
basically
three
levels
plus
the
lower
level
and
that
works
out
to
both
$750,000
of
free
rent
over
the
term.
R
So
that's
roughly
about
3.7
million
dollars
that
we
be
saving
as
well
as
we
have
a
financial
obligation
to
slate
properties
for
the
fourth
and
fifth
floor
for
16
years,
and
we
get
to
eliminate
that
that
which
is
bare
liability
which
is
$400,000
over
the
16
years.
So
that's
another
approximately
6.4
million
dollars
so.
M
When
we
look
at
the
proceeds
of
the
sale
of
120
metcalfe,
the
not
deferred
rent,
but
just
the
the
rent
holiday
3.7
million
that
you
indicated
Plus
this
debt
that
you've
you've
added
to
that
that's
significant
and
so
a
lot
of
the
questions
are.
Even
though
the
plan
is
not
to
go
out
with
a
public
I,
don't
want
to
say
tender,
but
a
public
opportunity
to
to
get
bids
on
this
site.
R
We
believe
this
is
the
best
deal
for
the
city
and
for
the
OPL.
As
a
matter
of
fact,
our
evaluation
staff
has
put
in
hours
and
hours
of
time
terms
evaluating
this
bus.
We've
worked
with
numerous
consultants,
we've
done
a
number
of
what
we
call
net
present
value
analysis
with
different
assumptions,
because
the
reality
is
this
is
a
very
complicated
piece
of
real
estate
and
that
it
consists
of
three
components:
the
city
and
the
library.
R
We
have
total
control
of
that
library
box
right
now,
but
as
far
as
the
the
air
rights,
which
is
16
stories,
a
Sir,
Richard
Scott,
building
slate
properties
has
total
control
of
that
220
34.
They
also
have
control
of
the
underground
parking
220
34.
So
for
us
to
go
to
the
market
right
now,
we're
kind
of
restricted
in
terms
of
okay.
R
Yet
so
it
made
sense
that
the
best
scenario
for
the
city
for
the
library
was
to
go
to
sleep'
properties,
and
that's
we
did
because
we
know
that
they're
motivated
right
now,
knowing
that
there's
still
16
years
to
go
on
the
lease
and
as
a
result,
that's
why
they
provide
us
with
additional
inducements.
So,
in
our
opinion,
we've
achieved
more
than
the
market
value,
then
we
would
have
got
over
the
normal
market.
I
would
also
add
the
other
scenario
that
we
looked
at,
because
the
number
of
people
have
asked
this
one
as
well.
R
Why
wouldn't
we
hold
it
until
2034
and
sell
it
at
that
time?
We've
looked
at
that
analysis
as
well
and
as
far
as
we're
concerned
from
staff
perspective
and
other
people
we've
talked
to.
We
consider
that
there
would
have
been
significant
risk
to
the
city
by
doing
that,
because
the
by
the
time
we
would
have
the
asset
back
in
2034.
That
asset
is
now
60
years
old,
so
we
have
an
aging
asset.
We
also
have
a
purpose-built
facility
with
regards
to
the
library.
R
There'd
have
to
be
a
major
retrofit
that
would
have
to
be
involved
to
see
would
also
be
on
the
hook
for
all
the
lifecycle
costs
for
the
current
library,
as
well
as
for
the
parking.
So
we
did
that
complete
analysis.
Having
done
that
analysis,
we
landed
where
we
did
today
and
that's
why
we're
recommending
that
we
sell
the
asset
to
stay
properly,
stay
420
million
dollars.
Thank.
M
You
I
really
appreciate
that
explanation
and
in
the
added
detail
in
your
worship,
I
just
want
to
make
it
very
clear.
I
will
be
supporting
this
motion
today.
The
financial
plan
I
certainly
supported
the
location
of
this
library.
When
we
had
this
debate
and
now
the
plan
that's
before
us
today,
I
do
want
to
make
it
very
clear,
though
I
don't
know
if
we're
taking
yeas
and
nays
or
whether
they'll
just
be
passed
but
for
item
5,
which
is
the
18
point,
1
million
dollar
underground
parking
lot.
I
will
be
dissenting
on
that
particular
piece.
C
C
C
Our
board
was
very
pragmatic
patient
and,
at
the
end
of
the
day,
we
now
have
something
better
than
we
can
ever
have
imagined.
We
have
an
opportunity
with
the
public
sector,
to
partner
together
to
create
a
world-class
library
with
vision.
That
being
said,
we
have
five
great
firms,
I
feel
very
confident
in
the
process.
I
feel
very
confident.
We're
gonna
have
a
great
product
at
the
end
of
the
day
and,
let's
hope,
I'm
asking
my
council
colleagues,
as
we
get
close
to
the
final
chapter,
let's
have
a
happily
ever
after.
Thank
you
very
much.
A
Thank
you,
councilor
I,
just
like
to
offer
a
couple
of
comments.
This
is
going
to
be
one
of
these
projects
that
we
collectively
in
the
community
will
be
very,
very
proud
of
and
I
think
we,
as
elected
officials,
can
be
very
proud
that,
after
many
years
of
hard
work
by
people
like
councilor,
harder
and
councilors
sure
Ellie
and
previous
chief
librarians
and
staff
and
chairs
of
board
and
members
of
the
board,
this
is
a
project
that
really
is
coming
together
nicely.
A
We
want
to
thank
the
federal
government
for
their
support,
Minister
Joly,
Minister,
McKenna
and
Minister
Morneau,
who
saw
this
as
a
great
investment
to
work
with
the
Ottawa
Public
Library
and
NAT,
and
National
Library
and
Archives
Canada
that
needs
space
and
need
public
space
for
many
of
their
services,
such
as
genealogy
and
so
on.
So
I
want
to
thank
councillor
Tierney.
This
has
been
a
long
road.
A
You
know,
I
was
hoping
that
we
would
have
a
shovel
in
the
ground
this
year,
but
it
looks
like
it's
probably
gonna
be
early
in
in
2019,
but
it
is
gonna,
be
well
worth
the
wait
and
I
think.
If
you
see
library
projects
in
Montreal,
Calgary
and
Halifax,
it's
often
cited,
they
are
more
than
just
a
depository
for
books.
They're.
A
There
gathering
spots
for
public
debate
and
forums,
their
access
to
the
Internet
for
those
who
may
not
be
able
to
access
or
afford
it,
and
there
are
pieces
of
architecture
that
have
become
in
Halifax's
case
and
Montreal
in
Vancouver's
really
destinations
for
people
to
come
and
find
out
a
little
bit
more
about
the
city
they're
visiting.
So
this
is
an
exciting
project.
It
will
be
one
I
think
that
we
will
all
be
proud
of
when
it
opens
and
I
encourage
members
of
councils
to
support
the
whole
package.
Merci
beaucoup,
a
lapel
Sunanda
thank.
B
A
Not
mistaken
Leslie
Donnelly
worked
very
hard
on
this
report,
so
thank
you
Leslie.
Where
is
Leslie
I
know
she
doesn't
like
me
to
do
this,
but
I'm
gonna
do
it
anyways.
It's
a
lot
of
work
went
into
this
I
think
you
know.
Jan
and
Rick
and
Tim
realized
that
you
know
it's
a
it's
a
different
kind
of
approach
because
it's
run
by
the
OPL
and
their
board
and
we
appreciate
their
great
work,
but
we
have
to
find
the
fight
of
the
funding
sources.
A
So
I
think
this
has
been
a
very
good
process
and
I
thank
all
those
involved
when
the
shovels
get
in
the
ground
and
the
building
starts
to
come
up
overlooking
lebreton
flats
near
the
LRT
station
and
the
Innovation
Center
and
and
the
the
development
from
rendezvous
lebreton.
It
will
be
a
great
destination
point
for
visitors
and
residents
alike.
So
we
have
councillor
Dean's
motion
carried.
A
A
So
that's
Carrie!
Thank
you
very
much.
Thank
what's
that
yeah.
Thank
you
very
much.
Okay.
So
we
have
capital
budget
adjustments
in
closing
a
project
city
tax
and
rate
supported
response,
Bridget,
I'm,
ELISA
Coss
on
the
progestin
April
apparel,
a
simple
force
here,
a
lay
lady
vols,
counselor
Dean's
have
some
questions.
Please
Thank.
K
You
mr.
mayor
I
had
two
questions
that
I
want
to
ask.
The
first
one
was
on
the
approve
of
$300,000
for
an
autonomous
vehicle
test,
track,
work
and
I
guess.
The
question
is
this:
I
understand
that
invest
Ottawa
recently
received
five
million
dollars
from
the
Ontario
Centers
for
excellence
program,
specifically
for
autonomous
vehicle
testing,
so
I'm
wondering
what
that
money
is
being
used
for
and
why
we
need
another
three
hundred
thousand
dollars.
Mr.
E
Mayor
information
we
received
from
invest
Ottawa
is
that
the
original
grant
program
requires
that
there
be
matching
contributions
to
the
provincial
money
that
comes,
and
so
we've
been
very
fortunate
in
Ottawa
that
the
component
that
Ottawa
is
contributing,
which
is
only
$300,000,
is
only
5%
of
the
matching
requirements.
Our
partners
from
the
local
industry,
Carleton
University
University
of
Ottawa
Nell
Hongkong
College,
are
making
other
contributions
either
director
and
kind
to
this.
So
this
is
actually
represents
a
very
small
component
of
what
it
is,
but
it
was
a
requirement
of
the
program.
Okay,.
K
Mr.
okay,
thank
you
appreciate
that
answer.
The
other
question
is
I.
Just
noticed
that
there's
a
lot
of
whips
closing
where
the
money
is
going
to
arts,
court
construction
and
I
just
wondered
where
we
landed
in
the
end
on
art
scored
when
it
appears
that
that
was
over
budget.
How
much
over
budget
was
it.
C
Mr.
mayor,
the
adjustments
in
this
budget,
there
are
two
significant
ones:
1.2
million
dollars
towards
arts,
court
and
495,000.
Both
of
them
are
moving
funds
as
counsel
and
had
intended
back
in
2014
council
increased
our
operating
budget
for
arts
court
by
1.2
million
dollars,
which
was
to
reflect
the
larger
scale
operations
and
the
additional
expenses
of
running
the
larger
facility.
C
The
intent
is
that
between
2014
and
2017,
those
operating
dollars
would
be
put
into
the
capital
budget
as
part
of
the
overall
funding
of
envelope
for
the
project
that
has
been
done
and
in
this
budget
you
are
in
this
closure.
You
will
see
a
transfer
of
the
last
1.2
million
dollars
from
2017
operating
to
reserves
into
arts
court.
Likewise,
in
2017,
because
arts
court
was
primarily
closed
and
under
construction,
there
was
an
operating
surplus
and
we
identified
the
need
to
retrofit
the
elevators
in
the
building
like
a
lot
of
our
old
buildings.
C
The
elevators
are
not
reliable
in
our
aging,
and
so
the
decision
was
made
to
set
aside
$495,000
surplus,
to
put
it
into
reserves
and
then
into
arts
court,
so
that
once
the
work
that
is
currently
in
scope
of
completing
the
renovations,
there
are
complete
that
we
can
retrofit
the
elevators
so
that
they
are
as
reliable
and
as
accessible
as
the
units
and
the
rest
of
the
building.
So
those
are
the
two
major
pieces
of
Arts
Court
funding,
the
first
one,
the
1.2
million
was
planned
all
along
and
has
been
an
annual
transaction.
C
E
A
A
22,000
I
missed
a
day
that
okay,
so
22,000,
and
it's
it's
been
a
really
great
success
and
I
encourage
members
of
the
public,
we're
watching
on
TV
or
online,
and
members
of
council
haven't
been
by
to
see
it.
This
is
one
of
these
great
success
stories
where
they,
the
community,
raised
significantly
more
money
than
they
planned,
and
it
was
a
great
partnership
between
the
three
levels
of
government
allows
for
Emma
and
born
example.
Out
a
little
a.
A
N
You
mr.
mayor
yeah,
this
is
this
is
an
important
item
in
part,
because
this
is
the
largest
brownfield
grant
program
application.
The
city
is
received
and
I
think
it
equals
pretty
much
all
of
the
money
that
we've
paid
out
in
this
program
to
date
and
I
just
had
a
couple
of
questions.
The
first
I
guess
to
the
treasurer
is
with
regard
to
the
21
million,
which
is
going
to
be
paid
out
from
the
city
in
lieu
of
the
municipal
development
charges
that
the
applicant
would
otherwise
have
to
pay.
N
Is
that
coming
from
from
where
we're
in
the
budget
is
that
debt
is
that
going
to
be
tax
supported?
Where
is
the
money
going
to
come?
And
what
is
the
anticipated
number
of
year
a
number
of
years
over
which
the
city's
going
to
expect
to
have
to
pay
that?
Because
I
presume
the
building
permits
will
be
drawn
at
different
times?
But
you
can
explain
a
little
bit
the
fiscal
implication
of
the
21
million.
O
Certainly,
mr.
mayor,
when
we
did
the
last
development
charge
report,
a
council
agreed
to
that
where
they
give
exemptions,
including
programs,
like
the
brownfield
grant
program
for
development
charges
that
in
because
we
can't
pass
those
exemptions
on
to
other
development
charge
payers,
we
would
in
fact
the
city
would,
in
order
to
keep
the
DC
counts.
Whole
would
contribute
to
the
amount
that
was
exempted
from
an
account
we
have
established
and
we
approximately
we
budget,
approximately
six
million
dollars
a
year
and
there
so
as
the
building
permits
are
pulled
and
the
DC
exemption
is
given.
O
N
O
An
account
an
actual
operating
budget
line
actually
pays
for
that,
so
we
take
tax
dollars
and
we
contribute
to
that
in
lieu
of
the
DC's
coming
in.
We
contribute
from
that
account
to
the
various
DC
reserves.
So
none
of
the
other
DC
reserves
are
affected.
They
are
just
made
whole
by
tax
dollars
as
a
replacement
for
the
development
charges
that
are
being
exempted.
N
But
knowing
that
we
only
approve
a
subsequent
budget
year
by
year
and
knowing
that
there's
some
uncertainty
and
when
the
building
permits
are
being
drawn
I'm
just
trying
to
understand
how
do
you
anticipate
if,
in
a
given
year,
the
applicant
draws
a
building
permit,
and
that
is
a
three
million
dollar
hole
in
our
operating
budget?
How
is
that
confronted
or
della
we.
O
Analyze
and
do
estimates
on
that
account
every
year
and
we
adjust
it.
If
there's
a
need
to
increase
it,
we'll
bring
it
forward
in
a
budget.
Last
year
we
didn't
actually
even
use
all
of
the
six
million
that
was
in
there.
So
just
knowing
when
projects
are
coming
on
and
and
what
we
estimate
the
building
permits
that'll
be
drawn
in
a
year.
We
try
to
make
an
estimate
and
if
there's
a
need
to
increase
it,
we
will
bring
it
for
as
a
budget
pressure
in
subsequent
years.
Okay,.
N
Thank
you.
My
next
question
is
about
the
brownfields
policy
which
we
approved,
which
we
updated
and
approved
in
2015
and
I
know.
As
part
of
that,
we
essentially
eliminated
the
development
charge
reduction
program.
We
turn
that
into
a
deferment
as
opposed
to
a
rebate
or
the
reduction
I'm.
Just
trying
to
understand
I
know
there
hadn't
been
a
formal
development
application
at
this
stage,
but
were
there.
Why
is
it
that
this
application
is
not
covered
under
the
2015
plan?
Mr.
N
K
N
C
C
N
And
by
the
way,
I'm
generally
in
support
of
this
I'm
just
trying
to
understand
whether
the
policy
gives
council
discretion
or
not,
and
if
not,
then
it
sounds
like
this
doesn't
need
council
approval
if
it
does
I'm
just
curious.
What
the
consequence
of
council
saying
actually
in
this
case
we're
not
going
to
grant
the
brown
mr.
P
Q
C
N
Maybe
I'll
just
leave
it
with
a
question
I'd
be
interested
to
get
the
answer
to
the
question
about
whether
the
city
is
has
the
right
under
the
grandfathered
plan,
to
negotiate
something
less
than
the
50
percent
development
charged.
The
production
I
thought
the
language
was
up
to,
but
we
don't
have
to
deal
with
that
now.
Maybe
that's
something
I
can
follow
up
with
mr.
mark
afterwards
Thank
You
mr.
deputy
mayor
Thank.
G
My
support
for
the
the
brownfield
as
as
councillor
Nussbaum,
pointed
out
for
himself
as
well.
It's
not
I
certainly
understand
why
we
have
brownfield
grants
and
we
we
want
to
encourage
development
in
areas
where
you
know
there
is
some
cleanup
to
do,
but
I
do
look
forward.
I
think
was
councilor
egg.
You
I
had
asked
for
us
to
take
a
relook,
a
refresh
at
that
in
the
next
term
of
Council
and
I.
I.
Do
look
forward
to
that.
You
know.
G
I
I,
don't
support
the
portion
of
the
development
charge
reduction
within
the
report
for
those
portions
of
lands
that
were
under
federal.
You
know
either
ownership
or
management
at
one
time
and
and
it
was
about
20
percent.
That's
a
rough
estimate.
I
had
to
kind
of
do
an
overlay
on
the
map.
So
certainly
you
know
that's
I'm
I'm.
Just
putting
that
out
there
that
you
know.
I
I
really
do
believe
that
we
have
to
when
we
do
look
at
the
refresh
at
least
pull
apart,
who
owned
the
land.
G
G
But
when,
when
we
discussed
this
at
at
fedko,
both
the
applicant
and
and
staff
had
indicated
that
there
was
an
affordable
housing
component
to
the
development
of
these
lands
and
when
I
followed
up
with
the
proponent,
they
had
indicated
that
in
fact,
they
were
working
with
CAD
Co,
which
is
development
arm
of
one
of
our
local
housing.
Affordable
housing
providers.
So
I
wonder
if,
if
staff
would
be
open
to
a
direction
to
to
tie
the
this
brownfield
grant
to
to
a
guaranteed
to
provide
affordable
housing
in
this
in
this
application.
Mr.
E
G
So
if
you
know
if
we
can
get,
if,
if
staff
can
take
that
direction,
I
think
that
I'll
be
able
to
support
the
the
report
again.
Given
that
I
do
have,
you
know
major
reservations
about
paying
for
land
that
I
feel
was
owned
or
managed
by
the
federal
government,
but
I
I
do
want
to
see
affordable
housing
at
this
location.
A
decent
amount
I
want
to
see.
G
C
But
I
was
told
that
once
everything
is
built,
the
value
added
from
taxes
would
be
about
twenty
million
a
year,
which
means
that
after
three
years
we
would
recover
pretty
much
the
whole
amount
that
would
have
been
expended
so
I
think
there's
a
component
of
the
program.
That
is
misunderstand
because
it
looks
like
we
don't
get
additional
money,
but
once
the
development
is
made,
we'll
receive
a
portion
of
it
because
there's
sort
of
mutual
assistance
here,
because
I
think
it
would
be
good
for
the
whole
community
and
we
would
have
more
taxes
coming
from
this.
C
Really
what
the
program
is
worth
because
there's
nothing
on
the
site
right
now.
Nonetheless,
I
think
my
colleague
did
raise
something
that
is
important.
That
is,
we
have
to
keep
an
eye
on
government
properties
that,
through
the
Catholic,
Canada
lands,
corporations
and
others
are
sold
to
the
private
sector.
C
So
if
it
was
a
product
that
was
owned
by
a
government,
we
have
to
be
careful.
We
don't
want
to.
They
create
this
a
filter
to
cover
up
this
sort
of
issue.
So
I
support
my
colleague
for
this
you
could
fly
fried,
but
maybe
is
it
a
20%
of
the
site
that
was
owned
by
the
government?
Could
you
give
me
the
percentage.
E
Just
in
the
context
of
the
federal
government's
involvement
in
that
site-
and
mr.
mark
can
assist
me
in
backing
this
up,
the
Government
of
Canada
around
the
time
of
Confederation
ceded
through
a
total
control,
lease
I'm
using
layman's
terms,
not
legal
terms,
a
total
control
lease
to
a
series
of
lumbered
industrial
operations,
control
of
the
site,
and
that
became
me
be
Eddie,
Dom
Tarr.
E
Ultimately,
and
they
then
they
sold
their
site
to
to
windmill
the
federal
government
in
the
nature
of
that
lease
had
virtually
no
rights
of
control
at
all
in
the
nature
of
it,
and
so
they
ceded
that
through
to
a
full
right
of
title
in
the
transaction
recently
to
go,
there
was
a
minimal
amount
of
land
around
the
edges
which
the
federal
government
had
a
different
type
of
control,
but
I'm
trying
to
use
late
terms.
Mr.
mark
can
correct
me,
but
this
is
a
different
type
of
lease
than
a
site.
E
A
Important
to
understand
this
is
completely
different
than
lebreton
flats,
which
is
owned
currently
by
the
federal
government
and
I.
Think
the
other
point,
that's
that
miss
Ned
mentioned
is
you
know,
we're
we're
receiving
about
$200,000.
This
will
bring
in
eighteen
million
dollars.
So
you
know
from
my
math:
that's
a
pretty
good
return
on
investment,
so
councilor
sure
Ellie.
Please
thank.
P
H
You,
which
means
that
I
was
not
planning
on
speaking
to
get
to
speak
again.
You
know
it's
very
frustrating
here.
We
are
coming
too
close
to
the
summer.
These
are
times
when
big
big
projects,
just
because
it's
the
work
that
gets
completed
in
the
timeframe
that
come
forward
in
June
and
definitely
in
July,
and
we
have
two
major
city
building
initiatives
today,
major
city
building
for
this
city.
One
of
them
is
the
Ottawa
Public
Library.
Okay,
we
can't
be
excited
about
that.
Oh
my
god!
H
No,
even
though,
for
all
of
you
that
are
talking
about
affordable
housing
and
for
you
know
no
parking,
etc,
etc
and
taking
care
of
those
that's
what
the
Ottawa
Public
Library
does.
That
is
who
it
is
it's
community
space
for
heaven's
sakes
and
we
have
the
great
good
fortune
of
having
it
attached
to
the
National
Archives
of
Canada.
That's
been
in
the
works
for
like
four
years
for
five
years.
You
know
actually
about
five
or
six
years
now
we've
been
having
that
discussion.
Why
can't
we
celebrate
anything?
H
We
use
that
I'm
sick
to
death
of
using
every
opportunity
to
plug
more
money
into
affordable
housing.
When
we
always
have
a
plan,
we
have
a
plan
for
affordable
housing.
It
came
up
again
on
this
item.
Mr.
joy,
why
I'm
mentioning
it-
and
we
have
a
plan
which
we
stick
to
this
council-
has
nothing
to
be
shameful
about
the
money
that
we
have
invested
in
affordable
housing.
In
fact,
under
your
leadership
mayor,
we
have
increased
it
dramatically
and
I
would
say.
H
So
I
I'm
not
out
of
order,
because
your
colleague
councillor
McKenney,
brought
it
up
yet
again,
she's
hesitant
to
support
this,
but
she
will
because
her
direction
has
been
accepted.
So
therefore,
it's
very
much
in
order.
You
know
I
just
like
to
remind
people
that
right
now
we're
getting
a
tiny
bit
of
taxes
for
the
zipi
lands.
H
The
two
little
green
pieces-
oh
we're
not,
and
yet
we're
going
to
have
a
tremendous
insurgence
of
non-answer,
just
a
tremendous
amount
of
taxes
coming
in
at
build-out
about
eighteen
million
dollars
which
is
going
to
cover
the
cost
we
currently
mr.
mayor
are
spending
two
hundred
million
dollars,
plus
I
didn't
get
an
accurate
number
on
our
cleanup
of
the
Ottawa
River.
Where
are
we
cleaning
it
up?
H
I,
don't
know
if
south
of
the
leaching
Tzipi
lands,
it
makes
no
sense
and
I
am
sick
to
death
of
sitting
here
and
not
having
anybody
say
way
to
go
Ottawa
way
to
go,
get
excited
everybody
in
this
city,
not
just
the
people
that
live
in
the
inside
urban
areas
that
can
easily
get
to
any
of
these
things.
I'm.
H
Sorry
I
think
that
as
a
city,
we
should
congratulate
ourself
on
the
hard
work
that
our
staff
have
done,
that
the
many
many
meetings
that
have
taken
place
from
people
across
the
city
that
are
excited
about
where
Ottawa
is
going.
That's
what
we
should
be
talking
about
and
not
using
every
opportunity
to
set
it
off
on
some
other
on
some
other
train
of
thought.
I
just
think,
that's
disappointing!
That's
why
we
created
an
Economic,
Development
Department!
H
Maybe,
if
we're
so
inept
at
contributing
to
affordable
housing,
maybe
we
should
have
a
whole
discussion
again
about
that,
but
until
we
do,
let's
celebrate
the
fact
that
this
council,
it
is
going
to
be
following
on
one
of
your
commitments
for
this
term,
which
was
an
Ottawa
Public
Library,
thank
you
and
to
the
West
Indies
at
Windmill.
Thank
you,
because
if
they
don't
put
the
money
and
guess
what
we
don't
have
to
pay
them
just
a
few
little
things-
and
maybe
everybody
forgets
about.
Thank
you
right.
F
My
mr.
mayor,
my
better
judgment,
says
don't
take
the
bait,
but
my
better
judgment
lost
I
for
one
am
perfectly
capable
of
celebrating
exciting
projects
and
asking
difficult
questions
about
them.
That
is,
after
all,
our
job,
that's
what
we
were
elected
to
do.
If
we
can't
ask
difficult
questions
and
remember
that
we
have
an
affordable
housing
policy
that
needs
to
be
adhered
to,
just
because
it's
an
exciting
project
and
we're
not
doing
our
jobs.
F
A
number
of
us
were
at
the
ATH
launch
of
their
annual
report
this
morning,
and
we
were
reminded
that
we
are
doing
a
very
good
job
on
the
projects
we
are
doing
on
affordable
housing,
but
we
are
falling
further
and
further
behind
in
the
demand.
So
when
we
have
major
projects
and
we
have
an
affordable
of
a
housing
first
policy
in
place,
it
is
our
job
to
ask
why
that
is
not
being
adhered
to
when
it's
not.
F
Similarly,
when
we
have
a
brownfields
policy-
and
we
see
a
major
project
such
as
this-
it's
up
to
us
to
adhere
to
that
policy,
not
to
make
exemptions
to
that
either.
In
this
case,
that
happens
to
be
seen
to
be
benefiting
a
major
corporation,
but
it
is
a
policy
that
we've
adopted
and
we're
upholding
it
today
because
they
qualified
for
it
and
it's
getting
an
important
job
done.
F
J
Briefly,
mr.
mayor
I
think
I'm
a
great
supporter
of
public
housing,
but
this
motion
isn't
about
public
housing
and
it's
not
about
the
development.
That's
going
on
there
that
were
required
to
follow
our
policy
on
public
housing.
That
will
happen
later
and
we
have
to
deal
with
it
when
it's
an
appropriate
time
to
deal
with
it.
The
I
was
really
happy
to
hear
that
auto
community
housing
said
it
was
a
record
year
for
spending
this
year.
We
have
been
doing
a
lot
on
it,
I'm
working
on
a
potential
in
Kanata.
J
That
would
not
really
cost
the
city
much
at
all
to
help
get
it
in,
and
we
should
all
be
doing
that
in
our
wards,
but
in
this
case
I,
when
they
came
forward
with
the
brownfield
policy
said
he
originally
wanted
to
give
a
hundred
percent
rebate.
Obeah
weren't
here
then
and
I
thought
that's
too
much.
They
have
to
have
some
responsibility
because
they
get
the
land
cheaper.
If
it's
contaminated
and
everything
else.
J
So
we
went
to
the
50%,
and
originally
they
put
in
the
development
charges
and
after
some
review,
because
I
didn't
like
that
part
either
they
actually
have
removed
it.
But
anybody
who
applies
before
that
removal
was
done.
It's
still
eligible
under
the
old
rules
and
that's
what
they're
doing
and
I
don't
want
everything.
That's
going
to
go
into
lebreton
flats
to
happen,
but
that
doesn't
make
it
mean.
I,
don't
want
to
have
a
city
building
exercise.
This
is
extremely
important
for
the
entire
City
of
Ottawa
to
be
delayed
in
any
way.
J
So
I
am
actually
thankful,
they're
going
to
go
ahead
and
clean
it
up.
I
wish
the
federal
government
would
put
more
money
into
it
because
it
was
their
land
and
they
should
be
that's
something
we
have
to
keep
pursuing.
But
I
don't
want
to
use
that
to
hold
up
the
project,
and
this
is
one
that
needs
to
get
ahead
because,
as
we
build
the
new
libraries
to
build
the
LRT
all
those
other
things,
even
though
we
can't
use
the
LRT
for
perhaps
forever
they
a
lot
of
people
can
say
it
isn't
so
marrying.
J
And
that
means
that
I
just
hope
it
happens
to
my
lifetime
dan.
The
math
that
this
means
that
we
have
to
get
on
and
expanding
the
city
is
growing.
You
see
it
at
the
housing
cost.
Housing
costs
are
soaring
because
people
can't
buy
houses,
they
put
one
on
the
market
the
next
day
it's
gone
and
the,
and
that
is
a
sign
of
a
city.
J
Doing
well
and
part
of
that
is
increasing
our
downtown,
increasing
the
things
and
that's
what
this
is
going
to
do
so,
I'm
all
for
proving
this
particular
policy
and
I'm
glad
to
see
it's
changing
in
the
future,
because
not
having
that
tax
revenue
for
a
time
is
going
to
be
difficult
because
we
will
have
costs
to
the
city
because
of
the
development,
and
we
won't
have
the
tax
revenue
to
start
with.
On
that,
but
over
the
long
run
it's
still
a
much
better
deal
and
I
think
we
need
to
go
ahead.
Thank
You
mr.
P
You
very
much
mr.
mayor
and
and
appreciate
all
of
the
discussion
that
our
colleagues
have
had
this
morning.
I
think
you
know,
I,
don't
think
that
the
discussions
we've
had
around
this
particular
issue.
That's
before
us
right
now
that
the
brownfields
or
the
affordable,
housing
components
or
for
that
matter
the
library
are
all
incompatible.
We
sit
around
this
table
and
debate
issues
that
affect
our
entire
community
in
a
variety
of
ways
and
for
the
first
time,
I
think
in
in
perhaps
a
long
long
time.
P
We've
really
started
to
see
the
inter
relation
between
these
different
things.
You
know
I
think
we
can
all
be
proud
in
Ottowa
of
the
community
that
we're
building
together.
We
are
all
eyes
wide
open,
recognizing
that
there
are
more
steps
we
can
take
on
things
like
affordable
housing
and
ensuring
that
we
have
an
equitable
community
for
everyone.
P
At
the
same
time,
if
we
don't
do
that,
not
only
are
we
not
building
equitable
community
that
everyone
can
access,
but
we're
not
building
a
community
that
people
would
want
to
access.
So
we
have
to
have
success
in
the
public
sector.
Success
in
the
cultural
sector,
success
in
the
private
sector
and
yes,
we
have
to
ensure
that
everybody
in
our
community
can
access
our
community
that
we're
building
a
community
for
everyone.
So
I
want
to.
Thank
you
all
for
your
thoughtful
comments,
be
they
on
the
library
and
the
success
of
it.
P
That
report
this
morning,
the
affordable
housing
and
the
important
discussion
we
had
around
that
this
morning
and
thank
you
to
the
colleagues
who
attended
the
Alliance
launched
this
morning.
Dr.
Turnbull
in
that
launch,
quoted
from
one
of
his
favorite
poems
a
Robert
Frost
poem
that
we
have
promises
to
keep
and
miles
to
go
before
we
sleep
and
I
think
that's
true,
not
just
on
affordable
housing,
but
on
many
many
of
the
other
files
before
so
on.
All
three
of
those
files.
P
A
Thank
You
councillor
Taylor
does
anyone
else
wish
to
speak
to
the
item
so
on
the
report
carried
there's
a
direction
from
councillor
McKenney
I'll.
Read
it
to
you
that
planning
staff
be
directed
to
work
with
legal
counsel
to
ensure
that,
in
the
negotiations,
the
ability
to
tie
brownfield
grant
into
a.
M
A
Lambert,
you
had
a
torch
and
speak
at
fedko
and
we
appreciate
at
your
comments,
but
there's
not
an
opportunity
now
to
speak.
So
we
appreciate
you
respecting
the
rules
as
everyone
else
in
the
audience
has
so
the
direction
is
the
ability
to
try
the
brownfield
grant
into
a
guarantee
by
the
developer
to
provide
affordable
housing
has
explored.
So
that's
the
direction
to
staff.
Thank
you.

H
A
F
We
see
with
those
so
rather
than
me
today,
although
I
will
have
some
questions
to
to
staff
about
how
they
came
to
this
proposal.
I
have
a
motion
here.
That
is
asking
for
a
monitoring
of
whether,
in
fact
the
the
feared
behavior
plays
out.
Should
we
approve
the
a
bedroom
limit,
whether
we
do
continue
to
see
the
behavior
that
led
to
us
imposing
the
interim
Control
bylaw
and
then
take
steps
at
the
time.
So
I
won't
read
all
the
warehouses
since
I
just
tried.
F
Our
four
policies
in
addressing
councils
intent
to
regulate
excessive
bedroom
counts
and
residential
dwellings,
particularly
with
respect
to
oversized
dwelling
units
in
detached
units
and
recommend
any
technical
met,
amendments
as
necessary
to
planning
committee
in
quarter
two
of
2019
and
be
it
FURTHER,
RESOLVED
that
if
the
monitoring
findings
indicate
that
phase
one,
our
four
policies
are
not
controlling
excessive
bedroom
count.
Infill
development
in
single
detached
dwellings
that
amendments
to
phase
one
our
four
policies
be
sought
to
better
address
this
form
of
undesirable
intensification.
Thank
you.
A
F
You
so
questions
to
staff
to
to
have
it
clearly
on
the
record
here
you
did
hear
very
clearly
throughout
the
long
and
and
and
I
believe,
quite
genuine
consultation
process
throughout
the
city
that
there
is
concern
that
a
large
bedroom
count
would
lead
could
lead
to
once.
We've
removed
the
interim
Control
bylaw
and
come
back
with
these
new
rules.
We
would
effectively
just
see
the
same
thing
continuing
to
happen.
F
E
Maryl
just
give
a
brief,
intro
marks
and
ask
mr.
wise
to
give
you
some
of
the
statistics
in
the
zoning
bylaw
today.
There
is
no
limit
on
the
number
of
bedrooms
in
any
dwelling
unit.
So
when
we
looked
at
this
its
where's
the
threshold
at
which
a
unit
becomes
a
rooming
house,
and
ultimately
that
was
the
problem
that
we
had
to
solve
in
the
our
forth
process,
and
we
said
we
started
with
the
eight
bedroom,
the
nine
bedroom
and
up
being
rooming
houses.
E
So,
but
we
did
recognize
from
the
community
comments
that
there
was
a
concern
about
large
number
of
bedrooms
in
some
areas
going
in
particularly
in
conversions,
as
opposed
to
new
build.
So
we
did
look
at
this.
Mr.
wises
can
give
you
the
statistics.
It
is
very
rare,
very
rare
that
we
would
have
this
situation
arise,
but
we
wanted
the
bylaw
to
have
a
mechanism
to
actually
deal
with
this,
but
also
to
the
other
side
of
the
equation.
E
In
you
know,
in
single-family
dwellings
that
are
purpose-built
for
large
families
did
not
make
it
difficult
for
those
to
actually
happen
and
those
those
are
not
the
problem.
The
problem
are
things
that
are
pretending
to
be
single-family
dwellings
that
are,
in
effect,
rooming
houses.
So
mr.
wises
can
give
you
the
statistics.
C
Thank
You
mr.
mayor
indeed
mr.
Willis
is
saying,
certainly
when
preparing
the
report
and
repairing
the
values
staff
have
done
our
best
efforts
to
not
necessarily
be
overly
constraining.
There
are
existing
legitimate
large
families
within
the
city
that
do
have
numbers
more
than
six
people
within
the
household.
The
majority
of
those
significantly
are
single
family,
one
family
census,
households
as
well
too,
so
that
is
not
necessarily
those
or
renters,
or
anything
like
that.
So
certainly
there
does
exist.
C
A
portion
of
families
out
there
that
do
have
a
legitimate
need
for
more
than
six
bedrooms
within
a
building
and
is
certainly
not
the
desire
of
the
planning
department
to
overly
constrain
the
ability
for
large
families
to
to
cohabitate,
because
there
is
in
fact,
actually
a
need
for
that
of
other
importance
as
well.
To
of
something
I
wanted
to
touch
on
part
of
the
r4
strategy
was
the
ability
for
us
to
harmonize
with
other
bylaws
and
with
other
regulations
that
are
also
out
there
as
well
to
the
building
code.
C
Certainly
is
an
influencer
in
this,
the
building
code
with
respect
to
lodging
houses
and
how
it
determines
that
sets
two
thresholds.
One
of
them
at
more
than
four
bedrooms,
and
also
again
one
at
eight
bedrooms
as
well
to
where,
if
you
are
a
rooming
house
with
more
than
eight
bedrooms,
there
are
more
stringent
fire
separation
and
public
health
and
safety
requirements
that
are
also
linked
to
that.
C
So
by
putting
in
eight
bedrooms
for
a
detached
house
in
terms
of
oversized
dwelling
units,
we
do
not
necessarily
constrain
those
legitimate
large
family
households
that
do
exist,
but
at
the
same
time
also,
we
provide
another
way
for
the
zoning
bylaw
to
harmonize
with
our
implementation
regulations
out
there.
So
that
makes
building
code
and
by
law
enforcement
and
also
our
rooming
house
licensing
group.
It
makes
their
task
a
little
bit
easier
as
well
to
to
have
all
of
these
bylaws
working
in
sync.
F
So
to
the
question,
then,
it's
been
proposed
by
some
people
have
circulated
to
to
a
lot
of
councillors
and
to
staff
that
say
a
six-bedroom
count
might
have
been
a
more
appropriate
number,
some
proposed
even
lower
than
that.
That's
certainly
not
something
I
would
even
contemplate
requesting,
but
why,
for
example,
for
this
particular
purpose
would
six-bedroom
care?
Why
would
you
not
be
recommending
that
number
again
based
on
census
data
or
any
other
more
practical
criterion?
F
C
Mayor
again,
there
are
a
couple
of
aspects
to
that
is
number
one
is
that
we
don't
want
to
unnecessarily
constrain
the
ability
for
large
families
to
set
up
shop
in
detached
houses.
The
majority
of
the
large
families
that
we
do
have
within
the
city
of
ottawa
are,
in
fact,
actually
within
a
detached
housing
typology.
C
They
they
do
exist.
They
certainly
are
out
there
and
we
certainly
don't
want
to
unnecessarily
constrain
them.
The
other
thing
again
is
that
we
want
to
make
sure
that
we're
setting
an
appropriate
limitation
that
we
are
providing
for
that
harmonization,
and
certainly
that
is
something
that
we
think
is
quite
important
at
this
particular
stage
for
us
to
ensure
that
all
of
our
bylaws
are
linking
up
with
building
code
and
linking
up
with
the
fire
code
and
linking
up
with
the
enforcement
branch
as
effectively
as
possible.
Okay,.
F
Thank
you.
So,
though,
I
do
recognize
that,
even
in
the
case
of
many
large
and
multi-generational
families,
it's
rare
that
they
have
very
large
bedroom
counts.
We
may
see,
we
will
typically
see
young
children
doubling
up
doubling
up
will
typically
see
you
know,
couples
in
the
same
bedroom,
and
so
it's
it's
highly
unusual
to
have
as
many
as
8
bedrooms.
H
H
You
certainly
have
good
people
above
you
and
you
had
good
people
working
with
you,
but
you
did
a
really
good
job
and
I
found
you
to
be
very
fair
and
balanced
and
I,
like
your
answers.
You've
come
back,
I
mean
with
you've,
had
a
lot
of
questions
thrown
at
you
and
the
last
week
or
two,
and
your
answers
have
been
solid
and
I
think
that
the
recommendations
have
been
really
good.
So
thank
you
for
that,
and
then
imagine
my
surprise
today.
Mr.
mayor,
when
I
hear
from
mr.
H
wise
that
on
court
in
court
on
Friday,
we
have
at
eight
an
illegal
eight
room,
rooming
house
in
bar
Haven,
that
we
found
out
about
in
the
Long
fields
area.
So
I
mean
it's
not
even
just
this
is
one
of
these
things
is
not
unique
just
to
one
area,
so
I
wanted
to
take
the
time
to
thank
you
and
mr.
Willis
I
wanted
to
come
compliment
you
on
the
fact
that
about
seven
months
ago,
or
so,
you
said,
I
would
really
like
to
include
some
sponsors
from
the
areas
that
are
the
most
hit.
H
If
you
will
on
a
rooming
houses
than
that
and
I
know,
it
was
a
big
help
to
staff
that
my
colleagues
on
that
side
of
the
table,
I,
don't
think
anybody's
on
this
side
on
those
of
you
that
were
on
the
I
think
councillor
flurry
councillor
McKinney
counts
early
per
councillor,
Turner
Jenko,
anybody
else,
the
councillor
Brockington.
Thank
you
very
much
for
for
your
input
as
well.
This
was
a
very
big
policy
piece
for
this
term
of
Council
and
in
a
very
important
to
the
city.
H
So
thank
you
again
and
I
I,
like
the
fact
that,
as
we've
done
with
the
other
planning
policy
pieces,
we
will
monitor
it
and
see
whether
or
not
there's
some
nuance.
That's
something
we
didn't
used
to.
Do
you
probably
eight
years
ago
or
so
and
be
beyond
that,
but
we
do
it
now
and
I
think
it's
smart!
So
thanks
very
much.
A
B
I'd
like
to
thank
the
chair
of
the
committee
and
mr.
wise
and
mr.
Willis,
specifically
mr.
Willis
at
the
beginning,
it
was
one
of
his
first
meeting
in
his
new
responsibilities.
It's
not
an
easy
file.
I
often
say
it,
but
in
Sandy
Hill
I
know
the
r4
is
not
for
Sandy
Hill.
Our
type
of
problems
were
increase
in
Sandy
Hill,
because
we
we
had
seven
different
zoning
reports
in
the
past
few
years
in
Sandy
Hill,
so
we're
catching
up
since
the
amalgamation.
B
There
was
some
mistakes
made
and
we
are
correcting
them
so
I'm
happy
to
see
some
progress.
I
think
that
what
we're
seeing
here
today
will
have
a
significant
impact
for
the
r4
zone,
not
just
in
my
community
and
I'm,
happy
to
that
we're
going
to
keep
the
interim
control
by
law
for
another
year,
because
there
are
still
other
details
to
settle
and
I
want
to
to
say
it
now
for
Council
and
committees.
B
The
other
thing
that
is
still
an
issue
is
four
zones
that,
where
there's
no
limit
of
units,
we
may
end
up
there
with,
even
if
it's
four
per
unit,
if
we
don't
limit
the
number
of
units
we'll
end
up
in
a
very
similar
situation,
so
I'm
glad
that
we
keep
the
interim
controlled
by
Allah,
so
that
in
Phase
two
we
can
bring
the
corrective
measures
to
that.
The
second
element
now,
which
is
important
in
owners,
will
start
realizing
this
with
the
change
that
we're
putting
forward
today,
the
rooming
houses,
bunk
houses
and
rooming
houses.
B
B
So
I
raise
my
hat
to
the
team
of
staff,
because
is
that
we
we
have
this
problem
specifically
in
Sandy,
Hill
and
I
just
want
to
make
sure
that
in
the
r4
zone
we
have
limits
for
units
that
we
can
have
only
one
unit
per
floor.
That
is
something
that
I
will
be
pursuing
in
Phase.
Two
of
the
study
once
again,
I
want
to
thank
the
chair
of
the
committee
for
her
good
work
and
mr.
wises
team
and,
of
course,
mr.
A
That's
before
us,
the
first
is
councillor
flurry
seconded
by
Councillor,
harder
with
respect
to
indoor
garbage
storage
and
buildings
containing
rooming
house
uses
in
Sandy
Hill
carried
the
next
is
by
councillor
harder.
Second,
by
councillor,
flurry
at
bleep
outpost,
a
flurry
with
respect
to
a
transition
clause
for
368
Chapel
Street
carried.
A
Thank
you
all
very
much,
and
a
lot
of
work
went
into
that
report
appreciate
everyone's
good
effort
on
both
staff,
the
community
and
the
members
of
planning
committee.
Our
next
item
is
item
11
zoning
bylaw
amendment
3,
9,
8,
402
and
406
Roosevelt
Avenue.
But
if
you
can
show
irregular
mothers
on
ashed
one,
if
with
cats
it'll
do
a
cat
saw
cease,
Avenue
rose
Mount,
a
Roosevelt
excuse
me
muah,
and
we
have
two
motions:
one
by
councillor,
leaper
signed
by
council
McKenney.
Q
You,
chair
I
think,
as
many
members
of
the
council
are
aware,
we're
dealing
with
the
building
that
was
originally
proposed
on
Roosevelt
Avenue
as
a
six
story
building
at
our
planning
committee
meeting
on
May,
the
22nd
that
was
reduced
in
height
to
a
five-story
building
by
the
committee,
and
my
community
has
spoken
really
clearly
to
me
in
the
intervening
time
and
I'm
going
to
bring
a
motion
to
reduce
that
further
to
four
storeys.
I.
Q
In
the
following
paragraph,
where
the
building
height
is
greater
than
five
stories
that
are
about
the
fifth
story.
The
building
must
be
set
back
a
minimum
of
two
meters
more
than
the
provided
setback
from
the
rear
lot
line
and
see
revised
section
2,
subsection
C
by
deleting
the
word
6
and
inserting
the
word
4
in
the
following
paragraph.
A
maximum
of
6
stories
is
permitted
and
D
revised
section
2,
subsection
C
by
deleting
the
following
paragraph,
where
the
building
height
is
greater
than
4
stories.
Q
At
and
above
the
fourth
story,
the
building
must
be
set
back,
a
minimum
7
meters.
More
than
the
provided
setback
from
the
northern
interior
side
lot
line
and
be
it
for
the
resultant
to
be
no
further
notice
pursuant
to
subsection
34
17
of
the
Planning
Act,
and
the
motion
is
intended.
What
I
asked
planning
staff
to
do
was
to
prepare
something
that
would
bring
what
the
Planning
Committee
has
recommended
as
a
five
storey,
building
down
to
a
four
story,
building
with
setbacks
that
were
similar
to
those
approved
for
the
five
story,
hey.
A
H
And
whereas
the
motion
at
Planning
Committee
to
reduce
the
building
height
to
five
storeys
was
not
given
prior
consideration
of
staff
to
assess
the
merits
of
this
change
and
where
a
staff
have
now
had
an
opportunity
to
review
this
motion
and
is
of
the
opinion
that
the
motion
to
reduce
the
height
to
five
stories
will
not
result
in
the
built
form.
That
is
more
consistent
with
official
plan
objectives
and
policies.
Then
the
sixth
story,
built
form
is
recommended
for
approval
in
the
staff
report.
H
Therefore,
be
it
resolved
that
council
approve
an
amendment
to
the
zoning
bylaw
2008
254
398
402
and
406
Roosevelt
Avenue
to
permit
a
six
story.
Mixed-Use
building
as
detailed
in
document
two
in
the
staff
report
that
the
Westborough
Community
Association
comments
dated
March
15
2018,
be
included
as
part
of
document
3
in
the
consultation
details
of
report,
ACS,
2018,
p,
IE,
p,
soo
5-8
and
that
there
be
no
further
notice
pursuant.
A
Q
You
very
much
chair
colleagues.
This
building
was
originally
proposed
as
a
six
story
building
and
what
came
to
us
first,
it
was
proposed
to
be
a
traditional
Main
Street
building.
This
would
be
a
six
story
building
and
the
very
original
conception
of
it
with
two
floors
of
commercial.
It
would
be
in
an
r3
zone
with
an
8
meter
height
limit
on
Roosevelt
Avenue,
which
is
very
much
a
residential
street.
It
is
not
on
the
traditional
Main
Street.
Q
It
is
in
behind
the
traditional
Main
Street
and
the
community
was
very
concerned
that
we
were
going
to
wrap
the
traditional
Main
Street
built
form
around
on
a
residential
street.
The
applicant
did
change
that
to
an
r5,
but
what
they
were
still
moving
forward
with
was
a
six-story
proposal
with
with
a
mixed-use
building
that,
despite
the
r5
designation,
still
looks
and
smells
like
a
mixed
use.
Q
Traditional
Main,
Street,
building,
I
think
the
language
was
changed
or
the
designation
was
changed
because
our
official
plan
policies
with
respect
to
traditional
Main
streets
talk
about
how
those
are
going
to
be
vibrant
commercial
strips
they
proposed
a
building.
That
would
be
great
on
Richmond
Road,
where
we
are
trying
to
build
a
vibrant
commercial
strip,
but
giving
it
that
TM
zoning
was
clearly
inappropriate
for
a
residential
Road.
Q
The
decision
that
was
made
by
the
Planning
Committee
to
reduce
the
height
to
five
storeys
is
a
recognition
of
the
fact
that
the
the
buildings
that
are
immediately
abutting
this
building
and
immediately
behind
the
building
are
appropriate
are
three
semi-detached
homes.
The
street
has
been
recently
redeveloped
with
infill
semi-detached
that
respect
the
r3
height
limit.
Q
The
residence
on
Berkeley
in
behind
many
of
them
took
a
look
at
the
zoning
that
was
in
place
when
they
determined
to
move
ahead
with
the
development
of
their
Lots
or
when
they
purchased
their
homes,
and
certainly
they
never
would
have
thought
from
the
r3
zoning.
That's
in
behind
that
they
were
going
to
have
to
face
a
six
story.
Q
Building
and
I'm
grateful
for
the
compromise
that
Planning
Committee
achieved
with
respect
to
bringing
it
down
to
a
five
storey,
but
I've
still
heard
from
residents
in
the
community
that
a
five
storey
building
that
is
mixed-use
on
a
residential
Road
is
wholly
inappropriate
for
a
residential
street.
Next
to
semi-detached
homes,
and
what
we're
also
very
concerned
about
is
the
justification.
That's
used
to
go
from
this
r3
to
an
r5
as
proximity
to
transit
and
I
know.
Many
of
you
know
the
westboro
neighborhood.
Q
There
is
very
little
real
estate
that
is
anywhere
north
of
byron,
that
isn't
within
the
six
hundred
meters
of
transit
and
approving
an
r5
building
wrapping
the
traditional
Main
Street
building
form
is
going
to
have
effects
on
all
of
our
little
streets
that
come
off
of
the
arterials
Winston
Winona
Edgeworth
Lincoln.
Many
of
you
have,
some
of
you
have
experienced
the
same
issue
yourselves
of
the
traditional
Main
Street.
Wrapping
in
behind
I
was
struck.
Q
This
morning
we
approved
the
Maribelle
CDP,
which
I
think
it's
an
excellent
piece
of
work,
and
what
councillor
brockington
told
us
is
that
the
CDP
sets
the
framework
and
guides
what
developers
will
follow.
Well,
my
question
for
you:
if
we
approve
an
r5
in
this,
our
three
zone
going
from
buildings
that
are
two
stories
to
five
stories,
potentially
even
six
stories
is.
Is
that
actually
true?
Q
Is
it
actually
true
that,
when
we
create
these
CDP's,
when
we
create
these
secondary
plans
that
we're
going
to
provide
the
residents
the
certainty
that
they
need
to
make
good
purchasing
decisions?
And
given
that
there
was
never
any
indication
for
those
folks
who
are
purchasing
in
that
are
three
that
they
were
gonna
have
to
back
on
or
be
next
to
a
traditional
Main,
Street
style?
Building.
Q
I
would
suggest
that,
for
those
of
you
who
are
counting
on
your
secondary
plans
for
certainty
that
you
might
have
cause
for
some
cynicism,
I
believe
that
this
building
needs
to
be
brought
down
to
provide
a
much
better
transition
to
the
traditional
Main
Street
good,
in
keeping
with
our
official
plan
policies
that
speak
to
transition
and
the
interior
of
our
neighborhoods
being
kept
intensified.
A
lower
scale
and
I
would
ask
you
to
support
me
today
in
further
reducing
the
height
of
this
building.
Thank
You
mayor
great.
N
N
The
first
is
I
think
it's
important
to
know
that,
although
everyone
around
this
table
supports
intensification,
there
is
a
question
that
I
always
have
in
my
mind
about
whether
are
a
particular
application
for
spot
rezoning.
You
know
I,
ask
myself:
is
it
reasonable
and
is
it
foreseeable?
So
was
it
foreseeable
if
I
were
to
have
bought
a
home
on
a
neighboring
property?
Was
it
foreseeable
that
the
our
311
meter
height
limit
would
be
rezone
to
a
23
meter,
our
five
zone
and
I?
Think
the
answer
in
this
case
is,
it
was
not
foreseeable.
N
There
was
not
guidance
in
the
existing
secondary
plan
for
that
there
was
not
guidance
about
interior
Lots
and
the
official
plan
about
that
kind
of
increased
intensification
and
I
think
it's
important
because
sometimes
spot
rezoning
happens
and
it
is
foreseeable,
I
can
think
of
a
traditional
Main
streets.
Where
residents
come
to
me
and
they
say
you
know,
we
only
want
four
storeys
on
our
on
our
traditional
Main
streets
and
I
say
well.
N
The
second
test,
and
the
second
question
that
I
asked
myself
in
this
in
this
case,
is
what
did
those
who
we
empower
to
give
us
advice
have
to
say
on
this
and
I'm
talking
about
the
UD
RP
and
the
in
the
UD
RP.
I
find
mostly
a
very,
very
useful
body.
It
in
the
past,
I
think,
has
given
council
excellent
advice
and
given
stuff
excellent
advice
on
how
to
improve
aesthetics
site
plan.
The
way
building
interacts
with
the
community
a
real
focus
on
on
context
and
never
in
a
you.
N
Drp
report
have
I
read
the
kind
of
language
that
we
saw
coming
out
of
this
application
and
I'll
just
read
out
two
sentences.
One
is
the
panel
said.
The
panel
strongly
believes
that
the
scale
and
mass
of
the
building
is
too
large
for
the
size
of
the
site.
The
panel
strongly
believes
that
the
scale
and
mass
of
the
building
is
too
large
for
the
size
of
the
site.
N
The
second
thing
that
panel
said
is
the
panel
said
that
it
recommends
that
the
building
be
lowered
in
height
to
four
storeys,
with
the
possibility
of
stepping
back
a
fifth
story.
Again
rarely
in
my
time
on
planning
committee
have
I
seen
that
kind
of
prescriptive
advice
from
our
UD
RP
and
again,
if
you
ask
yourself
as
a
resident,
if
you
see
that
council
has
asked
the
the
u
DRP
to
advise
it
on
these
issues
and
the
UD
RP
has
made
a
very
strong
statement
on
this
application.
N
I
wonder
if,
by
ignoring
it
and
ignoring
the
forseeable
test,
if
we
risk
really
a
strong
public
backlash
against
the
in
very
important
project
of
intense
vacation,
we
know
it's
difficult.
We
know.
Sometimes
it
can
be
hard
for
immediate
neighbors
if
it's
foreseeable
and
if
it's
reasonable,
we
have
to
do
it
because
intensification
is
critical
for
the
economic
health
of
our
city,
but
when
it's
not,
we
have
to
be
very
careful
because
we
risk
you
know
winning
a
proverbial
battle
and
losing
the
intensification
war.
N
So
I'm
going
to
encourage
colleagues
to
vote
against
both
councilor
harder
and
councillor
leapers
motions.
I
think
we
have
a
very
reasonable
compromise
coming
out
of
planning
that
reflects
the,
u
d
RP
the
recommendation,
and
that
makes
it
more
clear
that
this
sort
of
gradual
approach
to
intensification
is
the
one
that
the
city
ought
to
be
pursuing
Thank
You.
Mr.
mayor
thanks.
F
Thank
you,
I
I,
find
myself
in
in
support
of
many
of
the
comments
and
analysis
that
councillor
Nussbaum
just
made
as
well
as
with
what
might
be
seen
as
compromise
motion
in
between
the
two
and
I
say
that
to
myself
again
looking
at
language
and
looking
at
to
put
it
to
all
of
console
here
at
the
table
today.
What
would
you
do
if
that
was
on
a
residential
street
in
your
neighborhood,
when
your
residents
are
saying?
This
is
what
we
thought
we
had.
This
is
zoning.
We
believe
we
had.
F
F
I
have
had
to
help
so
many
of
the
residents
in
capital
Ward
understand
that
you
are
going
to
get
intensification
and
you
are
going
to
get
additional
height,
but
how
much
and
unfortunately
the
story
for
so
many
people
is
that
each
time
it
seems
to
be
just
asking
that
little
bit
too
much.
So
when
I
look
at
the
words
compatible
and
sensitive
to
the
existing
residential
neighborhood
context.
In
the
motion
in
front
of
me,
that's
that's
really.
The
guidance
for
me
is:
is
this
truly
compatible
and
sensitive
the
existing
residential
homes
and
somewhere?
F
We
have
to
draw
that
line,
and
certainly
for
me,
six
is
too
much
to
a
two
or
a
three-story
residential
home.
I
will
likely
have
a
project
in
the
Glebe
in
a
similar
situation
coming
forward
in
the
next
few
weeks,
where
the
residents
immediately
next
to
it,
are
five
or
six
houses
deep
into
a
residential
street
and
will
now
be
facing
what
is
fundamentally
a
six
story
wall
and
that
it
will
remain
two
stories,
as
is
currently
the
case.
F
No,
that's
not
going
to
happen,
but
that
it
has
to
be
six
just
seems
too
much
that
we
can
establish
something
closer
or
to
that
45-degree
plane
seems
to
me
essential
and
for
those
reasons
a
both
in
in
and
I
suppose
in
respect
for
in
support
of
the
people
in
in
this
neighborhood
and
and
and
in
the
hope
that
I'm
just
being
consistent.
So
when
projects
like
this
come
up
in
my
own
I
will
be
supporting
the
the
five-story
compromise.
Let's
call
it.
Thank
you.
A
Okay,
does
anyone
else
wish
to
speak
to
the
item,
so
the
clerk
advises
me.
We
deal
with
counselor
harder
and
Tierney's
motion
which
replaces
the
committee
recommendation
and
if
it
passes
then
counselor
Libra
and
McKinney's
motion
is
moot.
So
on
counselor,
harder
and
Tierney's
motion,
yeas
and
nays
have
been
called.
Counselor
heart
are
called
yeas
and
nays
on
the
harder
tyranny
motion.
Counselor.
H
D
O
D
O
C
I
A
A
A
F
Right,
thank
you
very
much.
I
gave
notice
of
this
at
the
last
council
meeting.
What
effectively
this
is
looking
for
is
a
letter
to
the,
and
you
will
note
how
the
language
at
the
time
was
very
careful,
and
that
proved
to
be
wise.
The
City
of
Ottawa
send
copies
of
this
resolution
to
the
next
Minister
of
Environment
and
climate
change
for
Ontario
and
the
next
Premier
of
Ontario
and
amo,
and
the
large
mayor's
caucus
I
kept
all
my
options
open.
F
And
environmental
concerns
therefore
be
a
result
that
the
City
of
Ottawa
calls
upon
the
government
of
Ontario
and
all
political
parties
to
formally
grant
municipalities
the
authority
to
approve
landfill
projects
in
or
adjacent
to
their
communities
and
that
copies
be
sent
to
and
I've
already.
Given
you
that
in
my
opening
remarks,
various
parties
named.
A
P
D
F
F
R
F
I
say
whether
it
includes
industrial
and
commercial
I
feel
it
more
likely.
We
would
get
this
authority
than
to
take
over
the
whole
industrial,
commercial
and
all
of
that
that's
a
very
big
thing,
but
we
have
already
asked
for
it
this
as
I
say
it's
about
the
authority
to
comes
up
thumbs
down
and
planning
of
the
of
the
site's
themselves.
Okay,
thank
you.
Mr.
H
Thank
you.
I
just
have
a
question,
so
we're
gonna
ask
the
province
for
the
right
to
refuse.
Are
we
asking
them
for
money
to
manage
it
at
one
of
our
existing
facilities?
Then?
Because
it's
not
like
there's
not
going
to
be
waste,
there's
not
going
to
be
garbage,
it's
going
to
be
some,
and
you
know
we
always
tell
people,
no
one
who
put
your
hand
up
if
you
want
a
new
landfill
in
your
neighbourhood
and
nobody
ever
puts
their
hands
up.
H
So
we
have,
you
know
Trail
Road
we
have
a
few
other
ones,
and,
and
the
other
ones
are
icy
and
I
waste,
which
is
why
that's
the
most
important
thing,
if
you
have,
if
you
have
the
the
autonomy
over
the
entire
waste
and
the
money
that
goes
along
with
it,
it
makes
the
picture
very,
very
different.
It
also
gives
you
opportunities
to
invest
in
some
technology
in
that
that
can
help.
You
sustain
the
landfill
as
well
I
just
M
concerned
about
this
I
I
I,
almost
wonder
if
we
shouldn't
be
having.
H
H
I
Briefly,
I
agree
with
with
what
councillor
Julie
was
saying
and
obviously
councillor
Blair's
work
on
this
I
just
want
to
make
sure
that,
as
we
send
our
letter
as
part
of
this
motion
that
we
actually
reflect
both
of
those
decisions,
so
I
don't
know.
If
I'm
asking
the
mover
if
I'm
asking
you
mr.
mayor
I,
think.
A
J
You
Miss
Mary
I,
certainly
like
this
city
to
have
more
say
on
these
things,
but
the
worry
I
have
it's.
If
you
have,
if
we're
making
the
approval,
it
means
we're
Dave
downloaded
to
us
effectively
and
I.
Don't
sure
we
have
all
the
resources
to
do
the
evaluation
it
has
to
get
done
on
this
and
what
that
evaluation
is
going
to
cost
etc.
J
So
I'm
just
wondering
if
we
shouldn't
send
this
to
the
Environment
Committee
to
take
a
better
squatter,
look
at
what's
involved
in
and
broaden
it
out
a
little
bit,
because
if
the
city
is
then
going
to
have
to
do
in
the
entire
technical
evaluations
on
whether
the
landfill
should
be
allowed
to
learn
art
and
all
the
rest
of
it,
that's
a
huge
job.
Rep
staff
cos
Khan
on
that
first,
but
otherwise
I've
prepared
to
send
it
back
to
Environment
Committee
in
principle.
J
P
F
J
H
A
We
have
a
motion
to
refer.
It
I
think
this
is
a
I
think,
a
reasonable
motion
by
councillor
Sharon,
ischenko,
saying
by
councillor
Qadri,
and
certainly
a
mole,
will
be
very
much
involved
with
this,
because
this
is
a
province-wide
issue,
what
to
do
with
IC,
I
and
and
so
on.
So
you
have
certainly
the
right
to
well.
A
L
L
A
F
I
mean
I
mean
look,
we
we
are
going
to
have
in
the
next
term.
It's
already
scheduled
to
have
a
very
full
discussion
of
waste
management
issues.
I'll
just
remind
people
of
the
genesis
of
this
motion
in
front
of
you.
It
is
actually
something
that
a
lot
of
Ontario
municipalities
have
already
passed
that
Council.
It
isn't
one
of
those
motions
frequently
when
we
would
write
a
letter
to
province
or
asking
for
permission
for
something
or
requesting
that
they
make
a
policy
change.
It
doesn't
come
with
all
the
I's
dotted
and
t's
in
place.
F
F
A
A
J
With
staff
to
get
the
additional
information
that
was
been
raised
here
and-
and
we
have
have-
people
come
and
speak
to
it-
the
committee,
because
this
was
done
is
I've,
noticed
emotional.
We
haven't
had
input
from
the
public
on
the
public
would
like
us
to
have
more
say:
I,
don't
disagree
with
that.
I
worry
about.
What's
implications.
A
C
You
mr.
mayor
I
certainly
do
have
sympathy
for
for
the
motion,
but
I'm
I'm
concerned
by
the
answer
to
the
question
given
by
mr.
Wylie
that
there
are
resources
that
we
don't
have
to
take
this
on.
Should
the
province
say
yes
and
the
the
letters
I
understand
that
this
being
proposed
is
not
asking
for
additional
funding
or
additional
resources.
So
I'm
wondering
if
I
I
do
support
referral
back.
C
C
We
would
also
like
to
know
that
there
will
be
additional
resources
provided
to
the
city
in
order
to
carry
out
the
job,
because
I
think
we
get
the
job
without
the
money,
then
we're
going
to
be
they're
going
to
be
stuck
in
a
very
difficult
situation
and
it'll
be
downloaded
to
us
and
we
won't
have
any
any
available
resources
to
deal
with
the
issue.
So
I'm
gonna
suggest
that
as
a
friendly
amendment
as
opposed
to
referral,
I'm,
not
sure
how
that
works.
C
F
You
know
at
five
days
away.
This
is
likely
to
be
a
big
discussion
with
the
resources
not
having
been
allocated
to
it.
Being
it's
not
the
kind
of
thing
I
would
just
want
to
walk
on
as
a
chair
in
five
days
time.
So
I
think
the
decision
in
front
of
us
is
either
we
take
the
friendly
amendment
from
councilor
egg
ly,
or
we
simply
defer
this
issue
to
next
term
of
counsel.
A
Okay,
so
we've
got
councilor
Wilkinsons
motion
that
this
motion
be
referred
for:
consideration
by
Environment
and
climate
Protection
Committee
for
review
and
report
back
at
q2
of
2019,
which
is
a
little
different
than
simply
sending
it
in
five
days.
I'm
wondering
if
there's
not
a
compromise
that
we
can
agree
to,
that
we
take
councilor
egg
lice,
a
suggestion
that
is
viewed
as
a
friendly
amendment
by
councilor
Turner
Shenko,
and
we
use
the
meeting
of
the
Environment
Committee
to
approve
the
draft
letter
that
can
be
done
in
the
next
five
days.
A
So
everyone
has
a
comfort
level
that
we're
not
asking
for
something
that
we
will
regret
later,
because
there's
no
money
attached
to
it.
But
we
deal
with
the
financial
requests
that
councilor
angle
I
wisely
put
forward
to
us
and
the
councillor
Tishchenko
has
agreed
to
and
that
way
it'll
least
gives
everyone.
The
comfort
that,
what's
in
the
letter,
is
reflective
of
what
we're
asking
for
and
we're
cautious
about,
asking
for
something
unless
there's
corresponding
funding
to
go
with
it,
because
we
don't
want
to
burden
our
taxpayers
with
a
provincial
responsibility.
J
A
H
H
A
So
what
might
my
wording
would
be
that
we
refer
this
matter
to
environment
committee
next
week
to
get
the
committee
to
approve
the
proper
wording?
So
all
members
of
council
are
comfortable
with
the
request
of
the
province.
Is
that
agreeable,
yeah?
Okay,
all
right
so
we'll
make
that
will
counselor
Wilkinsons
motion
and
yeah
I?
Think
we'll
we'll
get
it
properly
drafted
to
reflect
what
we
just
said
and
counselor
and
Schanker
you're
comfortable
with
that?
Yes,.
F
A
Okay
and
I
think
that
seems
to
be
a
reasonable
compromise
and
we'll
we'll
have
the
proper
wording
we'll
come
back
to
that.
We'll
go
on
to
the
next
item:
okay:
motions
requiring
suspension,
whoops
I'm,
sorry,
counselor,
sure,
Ellie
I
got
much
supposed
to
read
pursuant
to
subsection
59
five
of
the
procedure.
Bylaw
the
following
revised
vote,
no
I
know
they're
gonna
draft
it
we'll
come
back
to
it.
I
mentioned
just
so.
That
gives
the
clerk's
office
a
few
moments
to
draft
it.
A
P
A
In
the
ward
councillors
absence
and
whereas
to
effect,
this
leave
section
259
bracket,
1
bracket,
C
of
the
Municipal
Act
2001
in
subsection
83
bracket
13
bracket.
A
of
the
city's
procedure.
Bylaw
permits
a
council
to
excuse
the
absence
of
a
member
of
council
by
way
of
resolution
of
council
and
whereas
the
delegation
of
authority
by
law
requires
the
concurrence
by
the
ward
councillor
prior
to
various
planning
approvals
being
given
and
other
City
procedures
and
processes
also
provide
for
ward
councillor.
A
In
his
absence,
therefore,
be
it
resolved
that
City
Council
authorized
a
leave
of
absence
for
councillor
Jody
Minich
and
be
it
further
resolved
that
concurrence
under
the
delegation
of
authority
by
law
for
award
to
matters
may
be
given
by
councillors,
Minette
tyranny
or
Bley,
and
be
it
further
resolved
that
the
membership
and
quorum
of
the
community
and
Protective
Services
Committee
Environment
and
climate
Protection
Committee
and
Transportation
Committee
be
reduced
by
one
until
such
time
as
councillor,
Minich
returns
to
take
a
seat
on
the
committees
and
be
it
FURTHER.
Resolved.
H
Is
on
this
and
I
saw
across
the
floor
from
me,
people
who
are
in
their
first
term,
who
we're
looking
with
very
sternly
at
it
and
trying
to
understand
what
it
meant
you
should
know.
That's
not
the
first
time
that
we've
we've
been
in
a
position
to
do
this,
so
it
should
take
comfort
in
that
I
mean
councillor
flora.
You
know
that
when
your
father
was
alive
and
some
issues
came
up
in
your
award
and
chair
Hume
and
myself
worked
on
those
and
we've
had
other
situations
as
well.
I'm
happy
to
support
this
okay.
A
So
on
the
motion
carried.
Thank
you.
The
next
motion
requiring
suspension
of
the
rules
of
procedure
is
to
designate
a
name
or
board
member
from
Ottawa
as
a
candidate,
I
believe
and
there's
a
time
sensitivity
because
Aimie
was
has
a
deadline
of
June,
25th
and
they're
meeting
here
in
Auto
again,
which
is
great
and
councillor.
Taylor
has
been
a
great
representative
for
us
at
a
MoU,
and
we
thank
him
for
that
and
on
suspension
of
the
rules
carried
councillor
Taylor.
If
you'd
like
to
introduce
the
motion
seconded
by
myself.
P
Thank
you
very
much
mr.
mayor
and
and
as
you
laid
out,
a
MoU
had
put
out
the
the
call
requiring
that
councils
deliver
a
resolution
to
them
with
the
name
of
the
candidate
from
that
council.
That
would
compete
in
the
mo
election
for
the
regional
and
single
tier
caucus
seed,
which
I
now
occupy
after
that
communication
to
to
Council.
In
April
of
this
year,
councilor
brockington
and
I
had
a
number
of
discussions
and
he's
interested
in
putting
his
name
forward
and
needs
a
council
resolution
to
do
that.
A
A
The
clerk
has
drafted
the
the
motion
by
councillor
Wilkinson
seconded
by
Councillor
hubely
that
the
previous
matter
with
respect
to
waste
and
recycling.
The
motion
be
referred
for
consideration
by
the
Environment
and
climate
protection
committee
for
review
in
order
to
refine
the
letter
that
will
be
sent
to
the
province
on
this
matter.
A
I
think
we
can
give
that
as
direction
to
staff
yeah.
That's
that's
important.
Okay
on
the
motion
carried
Thank
You,
councillor,
Wilkinson
and
hubely,
and
egg
ly,
and
Wilkinson
and
Qadri
our
next
step.
I'm
sorry!
Are
there
any
other
motions
requiring
suspension
of
the
rules?
That's
Gettys
old
clip
most
joycie
on
this
one.
So
the.
A
G
G
Q
A
With
funding
of
100
million
dollars,
nationwide
anticipated
to
begin
in
April
2019,
whereas
the
mayor
of
Ottawa,
the
chair
of
Police,
Services
Board
of
the
Chief
of
Police,
have
met
and
agreed
that
there
is
a
benefit
to
residents
and
neighbourhoods.
Experience,
gun,
violence
to
hire,
10
more
officers
in
2018
and
whereas
the
Chief
of
Police
has
advised
that
the
October
2018
is
anticipated
to
be
the
earliest
date
by
which
additional
officers
could
be
in
place.
A
Whereas
the
police
service
board
will
be
considering
this
request
for
ten
new
officers
at
its
meeting
of
June,
a
fifth
with
an
anticipated
funding
pressure
for
2018
of
$435,000.
In
part,
your
compensation
in
$225,000
in
one-time
cost
for
vehicle
and
equipment
vehicles
and
equipment
which
they
will
try
to
cover
within
their
existing
resources
and
with
the
full-year
effect
to
be
including
the
2019
draft
budget.
A
And
whereas,
although
City
Council,
is
unable
to
pre-commit
a
future
council
with
respect
to
its
budget,
Council
can
support
the
hiring
of
ten
new
officers
of
2018
and
whereas
the
general
manager
of
corporate
services
and
to
the
treasurer
is
advised.
That
should
counsel
wish
to
support
the
hire
of
ten.
A
Two
officers
in
2018
the
best
approach
to
address
any
of
the
2018
pressures
can
they
cannot
be
absorbed
by
the
police,
is
for
the
city
to
continue
to
backstop
any
shortfall
and
they
approved
Ottawa
Police
Services
budget
as
part
of
the
annual
disposition
report,
therefore
be
resolved.
The
City
Council
approved
the
increased
budget
pressure
for
the
Ottawa
Police
Services
Board
to
accelerate
the
hiring
of
ten
police
officers
in
2018
and
subscribe
to
this
motion
subject
to
approval
by
the
Ottawa
Police
Services
Board.
A
A
Without
a
completed
environmental
assessment
study,
therefore
mere
resolved
that
City
Council
approves
$600,000
be
transferred
from
to
the
2018
rapid
transit
EA
studies
account
336,000,
be
funded
from
the
development
charges
in
234,000
from
the
transit
capital
reserve.
Therefore,
be
it
FURTHER
RESOLVED.
The
City
Council
approved
an
environmental
assessment
study
for
conversion
of
a
PRT
to
LRT.
A
To
bar
a
band
be
undertaken
immediately
such
that
interim
results
can
be
part
of
the
upcoming
TMP
review
to
be
assessed
for
consideration
with
respect
to
the
city's
next
phase
of
transit
investment
with
the
immediate
work
to
be
funded
from
the
transit
capital
reserve
and
development
charges,
and
should
additional
funding
be
required
for
the
remaining
balance
can
be
brought
forward
for
consideration
as
part
of
the
2019
draft
capital
budget
process.
So
we'll
deal
with
that
at
the
next
council
meeting.
A
K
J
Thank
You
mr.
mayor
I'll,
just
paraphrase
it
for
though,
what
that's
about
so
that
cuz
it'll,
get
back
to
us
later
on
is
what
this
is
is
to
have
the
city
staff
look
for
locations
where
we
could
have
up
to
ten
spots
for
people
who
drive
their
car
through
the
green
belt
and
then
bike
to
work
because
they
find
the
distance
all
the
way
which
can
be
up
to
30
kilometers
too
far
to
bike.
J
But
they
could
they
go
party
they've
been
parking
in
a
parking
in
the
parks
and
parks,
people
saying
no,
you
can't
they
ticket
in
there.
So
our
best
a
staff.
They
could
look
at
what
we
could
do
to
help
provide
this,
because
it
does
encourage
more
people
to
use
cycling
or
at
least
partial
cycling
to
get
to
and
from
work.
So
it's
just
an
inquiry
to
find
out
how
we
could
do
it.
Okay,.
