fuses,
the
vocal
energy
of
a
large
choir
with
the
smooth
sound
of
its
talented
house
band,
called
deep
groove.
Big

has
gained
a
reputation
for
its
ability

recognizes
extraordinary
commitment
to
making
our
city
a
better
place
today
and
in
the
future,
through
outstanding
volunteerism
and
exemplary
action.
I'm
honored
to
present
this
award
today
to
mr.
B
Glen
Moody,
who
is
the
director
of
camp
quality
of
Eastern
Ontario,
a
national
charitable
organization
devoted
to
providing
free
camp
experiences
and
year-round
programming
for
children
with
cancer
Glen
and
his
wife
Pam
have
been
involved
with
the
organization
for
more
than
18
years.
Camp
quality
Canada
as
part
of
an
international
family
of
organizations
originally
founded
in
Australia
in
1983
and
brought
to
Canada
in
1988.
Its
mission
is
to
provide
programs
to
support
children
with
cancer,
as
well
as
their
families
son.
This
show
a
door
filled
April
its.
B
Quality
is
to
provide
uplifting
experiences
for
kids
with
cancer
and
the
primary
focus
the
incredible
opportunity
to
create
a
program
of
empowerment,
encouragement
and,
most
importantly,
fun-
for
these
amazing
kids
Glen
projects,
a
warm
cheerful
attitude
to
the
campers
parents,
volunteers
and
everyone
he
interacts
with.
He
resolves
conflicts
and
handles
other
difficult
situations
with
workable
patience
and
admirable
tact.
He
loves
people
works
hard
and
always
tries
to
lift
the
spirits
of
those
around
them.
B
His
willingness
to
take
on
difficult
projects,
such
as
raising
tens
of
thousands
of
dollars
required
to
run
the
camps
and
coordinating
the
teams
of
volunteers
to
see
them
succeed
is
impressive,
impressive,
to
say
the
least
I'd
like
to
take
this
opportunity
to
thank
you
Glen
very
much
for
your
many
contributions
to
your
community,
generous,
as
they
said.
Ok,
as
your
pocket
I'd.
B
E
Thank
You
mr.
mayor
and
council
for
an
amazing
honor
this
week
as
I
thought
of
community
I.
Think
it
doesn't.
We
don't
look
any
further
than
the
evening
news
to
see
this
community
pull
together.
I
thought
of
how
community
has
helped
us
over
Pam
and
I,
and
a
bunch
of
friends
started
something
we
didn't
know
what
we
were
doing
about
18
years
ago,
when
this
community
has
stepped
up
and
I
like
to
say
it.
E
5,
10
and
20
dollar
increments
helped
us
create
a
whole
lot
of
smiles
on
some
very
amazing
kids
that
really
deserve
a
lot
of
smiles
volunteer
wise
everybody
in
this
organizations
a
volunteer
from
our
nurses
to
doctors.
The
people
that
are
here
today
to
help
us
organize
this.
The
most
unique
part
of
camp
is
that
every
camper
is
paired
with
what
we
call
a
companion
companions,
typically
1930s
year
old,
it's
kind
of
neat.
E
If
you
went
to
camp
and
you
had
your
own
counselor
for
the
full
week
of
camp
just
focused
on
making
that
fun
and
a
great
experience
and
helping
you
grow.
That's
what
this
is
all
about
and
when
I
reflect
on
that
I
get
to
spend
time
with
some
pretty
amazing
young
adults
and
the
one
thing
I
often
hear
people
say
is
well
we're
in
trouble.
E
B
A
I
J
B
Good
morning,
everyone
today,
hundreds
of
thousands
of
people
will
be
going
about
their
daily
routine
across
our
city.
So
that's
not
the
reality
for
hundreds
of
our
fellow
residents
in
Constance
Bay,
MacLaren's,
Landing,
Fitzroy,
Harbor,
Cumberland,
Britannia
and
Crystal
Beach,
whose
lives
have
been
greatly
and
directly
impacted
by
the
flooding
of
the
Ottawa
River.
These
residents,
our
friends
or
our
neighbors,
now
have
to
get
on
with
the
tough
task
of
rebuilding
their
homes
and
rebuilding
their
lives.
These
will
be
tough
times
for
these
residents.
B
They'll
be,
of
course,
the
physical
toll,
the
financial
impacts
and
the
emotional
strain
caused
by
the
flooding
and
yesterday's
information
sessions.
I
met,
many
impacted
families
and
individuals,
and
there
was
an
emotional
time
for
all
of
the
residents
at
these
town
hall
meetings.
I
also
heard
stories
of
great
hope,
communities
coming
together
and
the
kindness
of
complete
strangers
people
pulled
together
to
help
one
another
and
demonstrated
exceptional,
resolve
and
determination.
Unfortunately,
not
always
with
a
successful
ending
this
morning
there
is
a
shimmer
of
good
news.
B
D
B
That
a
total
of
346
properties
in
the
Ottawa
area
have
been
impacted
and
that
about
a
hundred
and
fifty
five
families
have
had
to
leave
their
homes
in
West
Carlton.
Three
hundred
and
twenty
three
properties
are
impacted
and
137
families
had
to
evacuate
in
Cumberland.
Twenty-One
properties
are
impacted
and
eighteen
families
had
to
leave
their
homes
and
in
Brittania,
two
properties
were
impacted,
and
we
also
know
that
there
were
properties
in
councillor
Manette
Schwartz.
B
As
a
result
of
erosion
of
the
ravine,
it's
been
my
honor
and
privilege
to
spend
some
time
with
affected
residents
over
the
weekend
and
over
the
last
few
days
and
I'll
be
back
in
Constance
bay
with
councilor
else
and
teary
for
our
fourth
town
hall
meeting.
Our
focus
now
turns
from
emergency
response
to
recovery
and
cleanup
efforts
in
the
affected
communities,
while
we're
still
continuing
our
efforts
to
stabilize
and
respond
we're
actively
moving
to
the
recovery
phase.
B
It's
been
very
emotional
and
I
found
myself
personally
very
touched
by
the
outpouring
of
community
support
and
volunteer
in
the
affected
areas,
but
also
the
profound
sense
of
loss
for
the
impact
at
residence.
As
of
yesterday,
over
2000
volunteers
had
already
signed
up
on
Ottawa
dot
CA
to
continue
supporting
their
friends
and
neighbors,
whose
properties
have
been
damaged
or
lost.
B
I
salute
and
thank
all
of
these
residents
who
have
survived
this
ordeal
and
those
who
have
given
of
their
time
and
energy
to
help
in
the
most
serious
flood
of
the
Ottawa
River
I've
certainly
witnessed
in
my
time.
I
also
want
to
thank
our
many
first
responders
police,
fire
and
paramedics
and,
in
particular
in
the
world,
the
volunteer,
firefighters,
who
have
really
gone
above
and
beyond
the
call
of
duty
to
help
fellow
neighbors
in
their
community,
as
well
as
city
staff,
community
partners,
who
have
been
working
tirelessly,
I
think
of
the
Constance
Bay
Legion.
B
For
instance,
that's
become
a
hub
for
the
community,
providing
hot
meals
and
comfort
to
residents
in
strim
distress.
I
think
the
information
sessions
held
yesterday
were
a
good
start
and
will
hold
another
one.
As
I
mentioned
in
constance
bay
this
evening,
but
I
challenge
each
and
every
one
of
us,
including
our
staff,
to
do
even
more.
We
need
to
continue
to
be
thoughtful
and
approachable
in
a
response
instead
of
bureaucratic.
Understandably,
many
residents
are
still
dealing
with
the
acute
effects
of
this
trauma.
B
I
ask
all
residents
of
Ottawa
to
be
mindful
of
this
emotional
time
and
to
do
what
they
can
to
reach
out
to
their
respective
circles,
to
their
neighbors
friends
and
relatives,
who
may
benefit
from
continued
support.
If
you're
able
to
I
ask
that
you
sign
up
to
volunteer
to
help
with
these
cleanup
efforts,
because
the
cleanup
is
going
to
be
massive.
If
you
go
into
those
communities,
you
see
firsthand
logs
hot
water
heaters
debris
that
is
washing
up
on
people's
private
property
in
the
ditch
system
and
on
our
roads.
B
I've
also
asked
council
ablai
to
introduce
a
motion
today
that
will
allow
for
the
missable
taxes,
due
by
mid-june,
to
be
deferred
for
these
residents
affected
directly
by
the
flood
to
December
2017.
It's
a
modest
mesh
measure
but
I
know
from
dealing
with
residents
affected
by
the
flood
that
every
little
bit
helps
over
the
course
of
the
next
coming
days
and
weeks
as
waters.
Recede
we'll
get
a
better
idea
of
what
specific
help
will
assist
impacted
communities
as
we
work
to
understand
the
order
of
magnitude
of
the
recovery
effort.
B
We're
aware
that
those
most
directly
affected
by
the
flood
have
been
pushed
past
the
point
of
exhaustion.
We
know
that
mental
health
services
are
key
support.
Some
people
will
have
lost
literally
everything.
Others
will
have
a
cleanup
operation
that
seems
insurmountable
in
addition
to
the
physical
services,
the
water
testing,
culvert,
repair,
the
dumpsters
and
all
the
rest,
we'll
be
letting
people
know
we'll
have
access
to
counseling
resources
in
the
community.
B
I
know
that
a
city
will
continue
to
show
support
on
the
ground,
but
more
than
that
Ottawa
will
pull
together
with
compassion
and
generosity
to
support
these
residents
impacted
by
the
flooding
as
they
work
to
rebuild
their
lives.
I
know
that
our
city
and
our
residents
are
up
to
that
challenge
and
we
want
a
residents
to
know
that
we
are
committed
to
respond
into
residents
needs
to
the
best
of
our
abilities.
Supporting
our
residents
obviously,
is
priority.
Number
one,
not
a
PDA,
say
they'd
a
priority.
B
D
D
B
Thanking
our
three
council
colleagues,
who
have
been
on
the
front
lines
of
this
natural
disaster
from
day
one
councillors,
Taylor,
bleh
and
Elgin
Terry,
have
been
exemplary
in
the
leadership
and
ability
to
connect
with
their
residents
in
a
thoughtful
and
compassionate
fashion.
I
saw
that
firsthand
over
the
course
of
my
visits
to
the
communities,
and
certainly
at
the
town
hall
meetings
last
night
and
I
think
you
could
be
very
proud
of
your
colleagues
for
the
job
that
they
have
done
because
they
have
been
really
rock
solid
and
getting
city
services
to
the
affected
areas.
B
Cutting
through
some
of
the
red
tape
working
cooperatively
with
our
emergency
management,
team
and
I
also
want
to
thank
Steve,
Cadillac,
US
and,
and
his
team
very
very
much
Anthony
de
Marty
certainly
has
been
at
every
of
the
meetings
or
other
general
managers
have
been
at
all
the
meetings
as
well,
and
it's
been
a
real
team
effort.
But
we
know
we
have
much
more
work
to
do.
B
I'm
going
to
ask
members
of
council
the
three
councillors
to
say
a
few
words
and
then
ask
counselor
rather
city
manager,
Steve
Cadillac,
Asst
and
Tony
de
Monte
to
say
a
few
words
and
then
I'll.
Ask
councilor
blade,
introduce
the
motion
with
respect
to
tax
deferral,
we'll
begin
with
councillor
Taylor,
please
councillor
Taylor
thank.
I
I
You're,
the
ones
who
sprang
into
action
and
worked
with
passion
on
behalf
of
all
of
your
neighbors
I,
want
to
echo
the
mayor's
comments
about
the
city
staff,
from
emergency
services,
to
public
health,
to
social
services,
virtually
every
city
department
and,
as
we
see
this
morning,
even
the
revenue
department
that
the
city
has
found
a
way
to
help
to
address
our
residents
across
the
city,
and
so
thank
you
very
much.
It's
often
times
we
get
called
upon
to
you
know,
debate
policy
and
go
through
very
dry
reports.
I
It's
not
often,
though,
that
we
get
to
see
you
in
action,
delivering
real,
meaningful
services
to
our
residents
that
are
going
to
change
their
lives
and
protect
them
from
loss
in
the
way
that
we
did
in
this
case.
So
thank
you
so
much.
This
is
an
example
of
people
pulling
together,
I
think
probably
one
of
the
most
poignant
examples
we've
seen
in
Ottawa
in
a
while
of
people
pulling
together.
I
Certainly
we
saw
that
in
the
Syrian
refugee
crisis,
this
was
a
different
type
of
crisis,
but
another
example
of
what
makes
Ottawa
such
an
outstanding
city,
the
the
property
lost.
The
mayor
spoke
of,
of
course,
is
very
real.
The
mental
health
impacts
he
he
spoke
of
are
also
very
real
and,
of
course,
we
we
hope.
It's
my
hope
that
residents
who
are
feeling
that
loss
more
profoundly
than
others,
perhaps
seek
the
council,
we're
endeavoring
to
make
it
available,
but
seek
that
Mental
Health
Council,
where
you
can
take
it.
I
Certainly
this
is
a
traumatic
effect
for
all
and
they
may
not
realize
it
for
some
time.
You
know
one
bright
shining
moment
I
will
say
is
that
at
the
Britannia
Yacht
Club,
which
was
flooded
out
on
the
ground
floor,
there
was
a
wedding
scheduled
to
take
place
last
Sunday
and
and
the
fire
services
went
in
with
Public
Works
and
did
everything
they
could
to
ensure
that,
although
they
had
to
relocate
upstairs,
the
wedding
took
place
and
I
was
there
as
the
rain
was
stopping
and
the
bride
and
groom
were
leaving.
I
We
were
in
the
background
not
in
the
wedding
party,
but
it
was
an
amazing
point
of
light
to
see
how
something
so
small,
on
the
grand
scale
of
of
the
event
that
we
were
confronted
with,
but
so
meaningful
for
that
couple
that
were
getting
married.
That
day
was
made
possible
by
the
volunteers,
the
staff
at
that
Yacht
Club
and
the
city
staff
who
made
sure
that
they
were
able
to
move
forward.
You
know
the
Sun
is
coming
out
today.
I
The
water
levels
are
receding,
we've
heard
that,
and
things
are
starting
to
dry
out
a
bit,
but
our
team
continues
to
work
through
this.
The
only
way
that
we
can
do
things
successfully
in
Ottawa,
together
and
I
want
to
thank
everybody
from
volunteers,
community
members,
residents,
city
staff,
to
the
businesses
that
have
stepped
up
for
the
amazing
response
on
behalf
of
Bay
Ward
residents
and
city
residents,
Thank
You,
mr.
mayor
Thank,.
K
K
53
in
in
Orleans
were
amazing,
going
door-to-door
checking
on
people
to
ensure
that
they
were
safe,
developing
plans
to
get
them
out,
especially
folks,
who
were
surrounded
by
water,
and
you
know
in
potentially
dangerous
situations,
and
it
really
has
but
really
been
something
to
see
everyone
come
together
and
I.
We
can't
forget
the
the
donations
from
local
businesses,
whether
it
was
coffee
from
the
black
walnut
bakery
or
heavy
equipment
donated
by
any
number
of
contractors
and
the
labor
and
the
fuel
to
make
that
work.
K
It's
truly
been
an
amazing
sight
to
see
and
the
commitment
of
the
city
to
help
these
folks
as
we
go
into
that
recovery
stage
and
help
them
be
begin
to
rebuild
their
lives,
is
truly
appreciated
by
those
residents,
as
we
saw
yesterday
and
and
I
know
together
that
they'll
be
able
to
get
through
this.
Thank
you
very
much.
Thank.
G
You
thank
you,
mr.
mayor
and
I
believe
my
colleague
I
echo,
their
sentiment
about
our
staff
and
about
the
volunteer
and
many
volunteer
came
from
all
over
the
city,
actually
from
all
over
Ottawa
Valley.
To
show
up.
There
are
some
of
them,
don't
even
know
what
Constance
may
was
and
sure
enough.
They
stepped
to
the
plate
to
help
us
I
believe
in
Russ
cotton
we
filled
around
95
thousand
bags
of
sand
and
I
could
not
say
enough.
Thank
you
to
everyone.
In
the
city
services,
the
trucks
kept
going.
G
We
even
some
of
our
local
business,
open
his
pet
so
to
allow
the
city
to
pick
up
sand
from
them
instead
of
going
a
little
bit
a
distance
so
because
we
cannot
bring
enough
sand
or
fast
enough.
So
no
matter
how
many
times
we
say,
thank
you.
Everything
will
say
it
enough
mainly
to
the
volunteer,
mainly
to
conserve
a
community
center.
G
You
know
in
a
rural
area,
community
center
run
by
volunteer
the
Legion
run
by
volunteer
the
Legion
open
24/7
floor
for
our
city
services
for
the
Red
Cross
for
commendation
and
also
provide
food
and
means
to
everyone,
because
you
gotta
remember
it's
not
just
the
volunteer
meat
to
eat.
We
have
people
can
not
use
their
facility
or
their
homes
to
cook
that
on
me,
but
yet
they
didn't
wanna
leave
home
because
they
have
to
monitor
their
water
level
and
I
know
we.
It
isn't
good
news
and
by
all
me
and
I,
just
checked
the
website.
G
Yes,
we
were
down
a
few
centimeter,
but
if
I
put
it
in
a
contact,
how
much
we
were
higher
so
you'll
understand
what
you're
looking
at.
So
today
we
are
a
meter
and
a
half
higher
than
the
normal
water
level.
With
today's
reduce
water
in
the
river
will
bring
us
back
only
to
1979
and
the
water
level
we
saw
according
to
two
Mississippi
Valley
conservation.
G
Information
was
from
1928
that
was
the
highest.
So
when
we
talk
about
in
our
reduce
and
I,
think
right
now
was
important
to
continue
that
support
to
the
community.
Now.
Would
we
don't
need
volunteers
to
fill
up
sandbag
anymore
and
yet
we're
not
on
a
recovery
mode?
Yet
so
we
have
to
wait,
and
yesterday,
in
the
meeting
we
learned
something
from
dr.
Israeli
V.
G
That
means
everything
touch
water,
possibility
of
contamination,
whether
there
would
you
see
on
the
road,
whether
any
any
material,
any
furniture
or
any
wall
any
carpet
possible
is
contamination
because
the
river
is
contaminated.
We
have
some
unfortunate
some
sewer
busted
up
from
up
the
line
down
to
the
to
deliver,
and
that's
something
really
so
what
we
are
asking
you
mr.
mayor,
asking
my
colleague,
let's
not
just
take
the
gloves
off
and
say
well
here
now
the
waters,
you
know
a
sunny
day
and
the
waters
down.
We
need
to
keep
supporting
that
community.
G
We
need
one
point
of
contact
when
somebody
have
a
question
and
I
I
do
appreciate
the
three
one
one
they
were
over
wrong
with
call
or
my
office
was
open
on
a
weekend
also
fully
staffed
to
answer
some
question,
but
we
need
we
need
to
continue
so
during
the
the
the
flooding
we
have
instant
command
on
side.
They
did
a
terrific
job
between
fire,
police
and
paramedic
in
and
volunteer
and
Public
Works.
Everyone
did
a
tremendous
job
that
I've
seen
the
operation
today
start
drilling
down,
and
rightly
so.
We
don't
need
it.
G
If
we
don't
need
it,
we
don't
want
it
there,
but
we
need
to
keep
in
mind
that
recovery
and
the
impact
on
the
people
when
they
walk
into
their
home
and
I,
know
and
I
want
to
say
milder
days,
because
I
want
to
clarify
this.
A
lot
of
people
say
you
lost
your
home
Eli
your
how
now
so,
let
me
be
clear:
I
live
in
Karp,
my
wife
and
I.
We
live
in
Karp,
that's
not
our
primary
resident
in
Constance
Bay!
That's
our
house.
G
We
honor
since
1994
it's
winterized
and
we
have
a
family
friend
live
in
it.
She
was
rescued
on
Friday
by
the
fire
department.
Didn't
want
her
to
stay
along
because
the
situation
and
just
for
the
record
and
think
dumpster
Moffitt
was
there
and
he
said
you're.
The
only
house
doesn't
have
sandbags
around
it
on
purpose,
because
I
want
to
make
sure
the
counselor
and
all
staff,
and
all
the
effort
goes
to
everybody
else.
So
again,
I'm
asking
you
know,
keep
in
mind.
G
We
need
all
the
help
from
here
on
more
than
we
needed
before
before
we
had
a
lot
of
people
step
in
even
without
being
asked
to
help.
Now
we
need
your
help.
Now
we
need
to
organize
and
I
need.
I
need
to
see
less
red
tape
now
than
we
did
before.
How
could
we
help?
How
could
the
community?
How
is
everything,
can
camera?
What
can
we
say?
What
can
we
know?
We
need
that
affirmation
and
I
know.
We
feel
good
when
we
post
it
on
website
and
think
everybody's
gonna
read
our
messages.
G
It
doesn't
that's
not
the
way
work.
Folks,
people
don't
have
electricity,
people
don't
have
internet
in
some
places,
so
we
need
you
somehow
to
deliver
the
message
to
the
community
center
and
the
community
center
is
willing
to
deliver
it
by
hand
and
to
the
Legion
and
and
keep
that
support
and
the
momentum
going.
So
on
behalf,
my
resident
is
heartfelt.
Thank
you
to
everyone,
especially
to
the
people
who
came
from
all
over,
to
help
us
to
all
the
city
staff
without
exception.
G
They
were
tremendous
folks
I,
thank
you
because
they
understood
they
weren't
there
to
say.
Well,
you
have
to
leave
your
home,
they
tried
to
accommodate,
they
tried
to
mitigate,
they
try
to
keep
the
people
in
their
own
home
and
bring
them
food
and
water
and
logistics.
So
we
did
great
job,
but
I
hope
you
don't
think
we
want
this
powerful.
We
didn't
thank.
H
You
mayor,
it's
an
appropriate
segue
after
a
counselor
and
she'll
shanthi,
a
statement
because
I
want
to
assure
council
that
the
emergency
management
team
in
all
city
departments,
ramping
up
more
significantly
than
ever
in
terms
of
this
phase
of
where
we're
at
with
the
recovery
we
understand.
This
is
the
the
most
important
piece
right
now
in
terms
of
getting
people's
lives
back
to
normal.
H
So
today
we're
giving
an
update
that
marks
the
transition
from
crisis
response
to
recovery
and
remediation,
and
we
are
deep
into
the
detail
planning
to
deal
with
many
of
the
issues
we
anticipated
coming
forward.
Well,
leave
to
see
the
floodwaters
receiving.
We
know
this
is
just
the
beginning
of
the
next
phase
of
our
work
say:
semana
de
bois
de
la
prochaine
fast,
and
this.
H
Ahead
as
they
start
to
assess
the
damage
to
their
homes
and
their
community
and
get
a
sense
of
the
magnitude,
a
little
Tate
to
get
back
to
normal
Anthony
de
Monte,
our
general
manager
of
emergency
protective
services
we'll
be
giving
you
an
overview
of
our
response.
But
I
want
to
emphasize
a
few
things.
As
I
noted
in
our
media
briefing
earlier
this
week,
pictures
simply
don't
cat
share
the
scope
and
scale
and
overwhelming
power
of
the
Ottawa
River
taking
over
homes
and
streets,
sometimes
in
real-time.
H
H
Our
staff
were
also
there
working
alongside
counselors
and
these
residents
and
volunteers
to
provide
support
and,
as
I
said
at
the
media,
briefing
I
can't
thank
the
councillors
enough
for
their
guidance,
their
support
their
direction
to
ensure
that
we
got
the
right
services
to
the
residents.
They
know
their
communities
so
well
and
that's
a
testament
to
each
and
every
councilmember
here
in
this
council
chambers.
H
As
council
is
aware,
the
office
of
emergency
management
has
been
leading
the
coordination
of
all
city
services
for
the
flood
since
early
April,
our
services
in
the
ground
have
included
firefighters,
paramedics,
police,
public
health,
roads,
drinking
water,
storm
water,
traffic
infrastructure
and
Parks,
just
to
name
a
few
and
our
3
1
1
and
911
operators
have
been
there
24
hours
a
day
to
respond
to
calls
with
an
event
of
this
magnitude.
We've
also
been
fortunate.
H
Community
and
government
partners
have
stepped
in
to
help
the
province
of
Ontario,
Red,
Cross,
Salvation,
Army,
Ottawa,
Valley
search
and
rescue
local
legions,
hydro,
Ottawa,
hydro,
1
and
bridge
gas,
and
many
others
are
providing
important
crisis
services.
So
I
personally
like
to
thank
them
Mircea,
two
notepads
nad.
Thank
you
to
all
our
partners
who
helped.
H
Developing
a
full
recovery
plan
and
we're
getting
briefed
midday
today
at
the
senior
leadership
team
of
the
city
and
we'll
be
able
to
communicate
immediately
after
that,
the
next
steps.
What
we
can
tell
you
today
is
the
facted
residents
will
continue
to
see
city
staff
on
the
ground
in
their
communities.
News
elaborate
on
plan
daily
tablets.
We
will
have
a
complete.
H
On
site
supports
remain
in
place
for
as
long
as
they're
needed.
We
are
not
removing
them
until
we
get
past
this
crisis.
As
of
today,
the
city
is
setting
up
information
and
facilitation
centers
in
four
locations
to
assist
impacted
residents.
We
made
the
decision
that,
even
though
the
command
centers
are
there
we're
going
to
put
permanent
staff
there
in
place
to
be
able
to
deal
with
on
the
ground
reality
versus
having
come
all
the
way
back
to
City
Hall
and
back
out
into
the
field
and
I
want
to
read
out
the
locations
in
Cumberland.
H
It
will
be
at
the
community
hall
at
the
rj
kennedy
arena,
one
one,
one:
five
Dunning
Road
in
Bretagne.
It
will
be
at
the
wrong
colbus
Lakeside
Center
East
parking
lot,
102
Green
View
Avenue
in
Woodlawn.
It
will
be
at
the
constants
in

Bay
Community
Center
262
Len,
Purcell
Drive
and
in
Fitzroy
Harbor
it'll
be
at
the
Fitzroy
Harbor
community
center,
a
hundred
Clifford
Campbell
Street.
These
centers
will
be
open
today
from
noon
to
8:00
p.m.
and
on
Thursday
and
Friday
from
10
a.m.
to
8
p.m.
the
weekend
and
the
following
week.
H
Schedule
will
be
provided
in
the
coming
days.
City
staff
will
be
present
at
each
Center
to
triage
answer.
City
resource
questions,
follow
up
on
resident
queries,
assign
the
proper
Department
and
get
things
done
in
the
community.
The
Red,
Cross
and
Salvation
Army
will
also
be
in
attendance
now
I'd
like
to
turn
it
over
to
anthony
Demonte,
to
provide
an
overview
of
our
response
and
an
update
on
the
current
situation.
Thank
You
mr.
mayor
thank.
L
F
L
The
city
worked
closely
with
many
partners,
including
the
Ottawa
River
Regulatory
Planning
Board,
the
Conservation
Authority
Environment
Canada,
the
ministry
of
natural
divorce
resources
in
forestry,
amongst
others,
and
we
showed
knowledge
and
resources,
and
that
information
was
invaluable,
as
this
was
an
unprecedented
flood.
When
we
saw
the
rain
forecast
last
week,
staff
moved
quickly,
sandbags
and
sand
had
been
in
city
yards
since
early
April,
as
we
normally
have
for
the
this
type
of
season.
Ottawa
Fire
Services
was
deployed
on-site
and
went
door-to-door
to
perform.
L
Wellness
checks,
assess
the
area
for
potential
hazards
and
offer
assistance
to
residents
who
wish
to
voluntary
evacuate,
paramedics
and
police
also
assisted
with
the
wellness
checks,
Public
Works,
Environmental,
Services,
enhanced
drainage
control
operations
and
supplied
sand
and
sandbags
directly
to
heavily
affected
areas.
Three
emergency
reception,
centers
and
lodging
centers
were
identified
to
provide
residents,
24/7,
shelter
and
well
water
testing
incident
command.
Centers
were
set
up
in
the
three
most
affected
areas
for
some
residents
who
were
without
electricity.
Ottawa
fire
provided
generators
to
provide
auxilary
power
to
keep
their
some
pumps
working
less
salty.
F
L
Residents
informed
by
releasing
public
service
announcements,
sending
out
emergency
notifications
on
Auto
LCA,
updating
the
city's
special
webpage
on
flooding
and
using
other
channels,
such
as
social
media
and
directly
on-site
3-1-1.
Increased
staffing
levels
to
provide
residents
with
information
in
a
timely
manner
on
Monday
the
water
levels
in
the
Ottawa
River
peaked
and
the
water
has
begun
to
recede.
Currently,
emergency
responders
and
city
services
continue
to
be
deployed
to
the
affected
areas
and
the
command
centers
remain
stood
up
and
wellness
checks
have
continued
and
that
will
continue
as
we
move
into
the
next
transition.
L
As
the
water
continues
to
recede.
The
city
is
now
focused
on
the
next
phase
of
helping
residents
with
cleanup
and
restoration.
Dumpsters
have
been
deployed
and
provided
to
the
three
incident
command
centers
for
garbage
disposal.
The
city
has
hosted
three
information
sessions
for
residents,
as
you
mentioned,
they're
affected
by
the
flood,
and
a
fourth
will
take
place
this
evening
in
constants
Bay.
The
city
has
also
made
a
formal
request
to
the
province
to
activate
the
disaster
recovery
assistant
for
Ontarians
program
for
the
affected
areas.
L
F
L
Funds
as
you've
mentioned
or
supplies
can
do
so
through
the
Red
Cross
or
Salvation
Army
ensconced
in
Bay.
Currently,
sandbagging
has
ceased.
For
the
most
part,
the
city
continues
to
provide
sandbags
and
is
coordinating
with
our
surrounding
municipalities
based
on
needs
and
that
continues
outside
our
jurisdiction.
A
recovery
task
force
has
been
established
and
is
mentioned
as
part
of
the
restoration
efforts
to
be
most
short
and
long-term
plans
and
are
finalized
to
meet
the
needs
of
our
residents.
L
As
mentioned
for
information,
centers
will
be
open
to
the
affected
areas
today
and
very
similar
to
the
incident
command
structure
that
Kelsey
all-century
spoke
to.
These
centers
are
located
directly
there
to
be
able
to
immediately
respond
to
the
needs
of
those
communities
and
the
particular
needs
of
those
areas.
L
The
city
and
its
Emergency,
Operations
Center,
will
remain
in
active
mode.
There's
still
much
work
to
be
done
by
city
services,
and
we
are
working
around
the
clock
to
provide
support.
If
members
of
the
public
have
any
questions
regarding
the
flood,
they
are
advised
to
call
9-1-1
or
visit
Ottawa
dot
CA
for
more
information.
If
it
is
an
emergency
residents
are
asked
to
call
9-1-1,
particularly
if
any
risk
may
be
identified
in
fcl

B
B
J
Saying
they
want
in
the
report
on
page
22,
mr.
mayor
they're,
saying
they
that
the
new
activity
that
they're
adding
to
this
report
is
that
they
want
to
recruit
a
great
number
of
staff
and
I
would
like
a
better
definition
of
great
so
that
council
can
decide
whether
there
should
be
limits
on
the
use
of
the
the
greater
the
activity
here.
So.
F
K
B
J
Don't
often
get
confused,
but
I'll
give
you
that
wonderful.
On
page
35
of
the
report,
mr.
mayor
the
procurement
report
under
prompt
payment
discounts,
it
refers
to
the
Auditor
General's
recommendations
that
we
go
after
more.
The
discounts
that
are
available
for
prompt
payment,
as
well
as
improving
how
we're
doing
our
own
collections
and
I
want
to
congratulate
staff
on
after
implementing
these
recommendations
that
they
found
that
they
move
from
44
percent
to
61
percent
of
the
available
discounts
to
us,
which
represented
nearly
seven
hundred
thousand
more
dollars
to
benefit
taxpayers
of
the
city
of
Ottawa.
F
B
O
Yes,
my
question
was
specifically
for
the
list,
so
I
pull
the
list.
There's
nothing
in
my
mind
that
stands
out
except
I
find
it
odd
that
we
allow
contracts
to
be
given
to
Ontario
inks,
like
organisation
or
just
the
number
so
I'd
like
to
hear
from
you
on.
Is
there
an
ability
to
if
someone
does
not
have
a
name
of
an
organization
to
provide
the
name
of
the
owner?
It
seems
odd
to
me
that
Meru
porting
is
for
transparency
measure,
but
we
can
identify
who
that
is.
O
E
O
E
Under
Ontario
law
no
more,
they
could
also
be
registered
federally.
That
is
they're
entitled
to
be
to
be
known
by
that,
and
that
is
the
organization
that
we
contracted
with
that.
We
really
have
no
legal
ability
to
refuse
to
contract
with
them
unless
they
have
some
kind
of
a
business
name
or
better
known
name
and.
F
O
I'd,
like
that,
thank
you
so
much
and
just
wanted
to
reflect.
We
rarely
get
an
opportunity
to
speak
on
an
item
like
procurement,
but
procurement
in
an
a
public
corporation
is
so
important
on
the
way
we
do
business
on
the
way
we
innovate,
and
certainly
on
the
ability
to
deliver
the
wide
range
of
services
that
an
organization
like
the
City
of
Ottawa
does.
So.
Thank
you
for
that.
Right.
B
P
Thank
You
mr.
chair
I'm,
sorry
I
wasn't
able
to
be
at
the
meeting
when
you
discussed
this
concern.
I
have
about
this.
One
is
on
future
economic
development.
Quite
often
when
people
are
building
businesses,
they
have
part
of
it
pre-leased
before
they'll
start
building,
but
that
takes
time
to
lease
out
a
whole
building
I'm
concerned
that
they
having
no
ability
to
deal
with
that,
but
I'll
call
it
a
temporary
vacancy.
It's
an
incremental
vacancy
may
discourage
people
from
doing
new
buildings.
I've
talked
to
some
of
the
people
who
do
the
economic
development
in
the
city.
P
About
this,
what
they
say
is
the
city's
costs
now
are
so
high
that
they
actually
can't
afford
to
build
a
new
building,
even
if
they've
and
as
there
is
a
purpose-built
building
for
a
particular
industry.
Those
are
the
only
ones
I
see
getting
built
in
my
area
right
now
and
we
have
a
very
low
vacancy
rate
there.
They
can't
afford
to
build
ones
if
this
is
going
to
happen,
apply
to
them
as
well,
which
it
would
where
we
did
and
I
don't
see.
Anything
in
the
report
that
talks
about
the
impact
on
future
economic
development.
P
So
I
really
would
like
to
staff
sort
of
comment
on
that
and
then
I
would
ask
them
to
take
a
look
at
what
that
impact
is
and
see.
If
we
need
to
make
some
sort
of
modification
on
new
construction
that
requires
that
will
not
be
a
hundred
percent
occupied
by
that
person,
who's
built
in
the
building
to
start
with,
so
that
we
can
make
sure
that
we
don't
hinder
our
economic
development
by
this
policy.
But
I
don't
know
who
would
be
the
best
answer.
Probably
John.
Q
Mr.
mayor,
thank
you
in
terms
of
new
construction
and
us
having
an
ability
to
influence
or
limit
how
much
space
within
a
new
build
is
being
occupied.
That's
something
that
we
really
have
no
ability
to
step
into
that's
a
market-driven
element
that
is
very
much
front
and
center
for
whoever's,
developing
the
property
they're,
clearly
moving
forward
with
a
view
to
optimize
the
occupancy
of
the
space
within
that
project
in
terms
of
existing
vacant
space
that
we
have
in
existing
commercial
buildings,
be
in
office,
buildings
or
whatever
I
think.
Q
So
that's
something
that's
very
much
on
the
radar
for
us
to
initiate
and
move
forward
with
into
2017
and
Beyond
and
in
terms
of
what
we
can
do
to
support
sort
of
the
continued
economic
viability.
I
think
the
biggest
thing
really
is
the
continued
growth,
a
lot
of
his
economy.
A
lot
of
the
vacancy
that
we
do
have
in
existing
buildings
is
predominately
Class
C
Class
B
buildings,
and
many
of
these,
in
fact,
are
getting
to
the
point
where
they're,
beyond
their
life's
sort
of
viable
life
and
able
for
or
potential
for
redevelopment
and
I.
P
Don't
think
you
really
understood
what
I
was
saying
about
the
new
build
site
if
it's
a
new
build
for
particular
industry,
it's
probably
full
anyway,
but
if,
if
we
don't
have
new
buildings
going
into
our
business
parks
and
our
growth
areas,
then
we're
going
to
stagnate.
Our
economic
development
and
I
just
I
think
we
could
have
a
policy
within
this.
P
So
we
don't
give
rebates
for
existing
buildings
which
what
this
is
addressing,
but
we
don't
have
a
way
of
saying
if
they're,
building
a
new
building
and
you
make
it
a
bit
bigger,
so
you
can
have
that
space
available
in
the
future
that
we
couldn't
have
a
rebate
program
until
they
actually
have
their
first
tenancy.
As
long
as
at
least
say,
50
percent
of
the
building
is
occupied
and
it
would
have
to
I
really
just
want
this
looked
into,
because
I
really
worry
about
the
fact
that
we
could
stack
stagnate.
P
If
and
I,
don't
want
them
discouraged
from
doing
that.
So
it's
a
pre
quest
for
actually
it's
just
to
give
some
instruction
of
staff.
Could
you
look
into
this
and
report
back
on
what
that
input
would
be
and
whether
or
not
we
should
be
doing
something
about
it
because
I
don't
know
the
answer
right
now,.
M
In
multiple
use
buildings,
but
are
the
case
we
were
making
at
fedko
was
that
that
building
will
have
built
into
their
assessment
of
vacancy
factor
and
if
the
vacancy
factor
is
too
low,
they
can
appeal
that
to
impact
and
get
their
property
taxes
reduced
through
that
process.
So
they
still
have
that
mechanism.
There
they're,
not
just
it's,
just
they're
not
going
to
be
coming
to
us
and
to
impact
for
getting
a
vacancy
move.
M
P
M
R
Thank
You
mr.
Marin,
my
comments
were
similar
to
councillor
Wilkinsons,
although
not
just
for
future
buildings,
but
existing
ones
and
John.
You
alluded
to
this
a
bit
in
your
answer
and
not
necessarily
just
the
big
landlords
or
the
federal
government
who
is
impacted
by
this
and
where
most
of
those
ones
are
going
now,
but
also
the
small
shops
and
the
smaller
property
owners
as
well.
Q
Yes,
mr.
mayor,
so
that
that's
a
key
item
that
we
want
to
move
forward
as
far
as
the
economic
development
strategy
is
concerned,
so
clearly
the
big
ones
have
the
greatest
impact,
but
we
also
there's
opportunities
in
terms
of
working
with
the
bi
A's,
where
there
are
smaller
vacancies
within
areas
that
are
covered
by
BIA
s,
what
they
can
do
to
help
themselves
to
improve
their
marketing
and
and
identify
soar
where
the
opportunities
are
for
retailers
or
commercial
office
space
to
be
occupied
within
those
areas.
Q
R
Q
Don't
think
we're
slowing
down
economic
development
there's
a
lot
of
other
drivers
to
economic
development.
I
think
this
is
another
means
by
which
we
can
help
to
identify
locations
where
business
businesses
can
set
themselves
up
and
I
think
that's
a
part
and
parcel
of
our
overall
strategy
in
terms
of
attracting
an
accommodating
business,
so
basically
Ottawa
being
a
business
friendly
community
and
it's
really
augmenting
and
supporting
that
I.
Don't
really
see
it
as
a
slowdown.
Q
Our
real
estate
brokers
are
very
well
informed
in
terms
of
what's
out
there
in
the
marketplace,
and
most
space
users
will
be
dealing
and
working
with
real
estate
brokers
to
identify
where
the
opportunities
are.
This
is
another
means
by
which
weekend,
as
part
of
the
efforts
that
were
involved
in
an
attracting
business,
that
we
also
have
another
element
in
our
toolbox
in
terms
of
identifying
spaces
that
they
could
occupy.
R
Thank
you.
The
one
of
the
stakeholders
sent
sent
us
a
letter
or
sent
me
a
letter
yesterday,
and
we
know
how
the
the
commercial
already
sort
of
there's
a
suspect
as
the
the
way
they
see
it
at
least,
and
one
of
their
first
points
in
the
letters
that
they
highlight
that
the
VRP
was
created
as
a
fair
means
to
address
vacancies.
When
the
business
occupancy
tax
was
abolished
in
1999
favor
of
increasing
property
taxes
for
a
commercial
building.
R
F
Thank
You
mr.
mayor
we've
looked
at
it
from
all
aspects
and
in
terms
of
the
benefits
that
the
owners
receive
as
discussed
at
fedko.
When
you
look
at
the
assessments
of
these
properties,
they
have
a
vacancy
factor
built
into
this
already,
so
they
are
benefiting
in
one
way.
What
we
heard
when
we
did
our
engagement
sessions
with
the
business
owners
was
they
felt
that
they
were
entitled
to
a
second
level
of
benefit.
C
R
M
R
N
You
just
to
build
on
some
of
the
comments
that
I
had
last
week.
We
were
looking
at
it
from
in
the
presentation.
There
was
a
graph
at
the
time
has
showed
the
breakdown
of
who's
using
the
who
was
using
the
program
from
small
business
to
large
business.
The
small
business
made
up
for
about
approximately
50%
of
the
the
use,
but
only
12%
of
the
cost
paid
out
now,
while
I
wasn't
clear
at
the
time.
N
So
if
I
could
just
a
moment,
look
at
John
Smith
for
a
sec
if
you're
looking
at
and
what
you
can
do
from
a
small
business
perspective
with
the
BIA
is
through
economic
development.
Could
you
explore
and
I'm
saying,
do
this
I'm
not
gonna,
give
you
a
motion
to
do
it,
but
could
you
explore
how
you
could
take
something
like
what
the
vacancy
rebate
program
does
for
small
business
and
somehow
tie
that
into
an
economic
development
perspective
through
a
program
through
a
relief
program?
N
If
necessary,
I
just
be
a
student
seeing
what
that
would
look
like
and
I,
don't
know
if
it's
possible.
That's
why
I
wouldn't
do
a
motion
to
tell
you
to
do
because
I
don't
know
if
it's
possible,
but
I'm,
just
interesting
interested
in
exploring
that
I
mean
this
doesn't
end
for
another
two
years,
so
as
mr.
Simo
just
said
that
the
money's
not
there
until
2019.
But
if
you
should
see,
if
you
could
look
at
that
and
just
get
back
to
me
with
that
type
of
thing,.
Q
Mr.
mayor,
we
can
look
into
by
my
initial
reaction
on
that
is
particularly
when
you're
dealing
with
ba
BIA
is.
We
do
support
BIA
s,
we
do
provide
some
funding
supports
to
be
IAS,
but
it's
predominantly
focused
around
helping
them
help
themselves
in
terms
of
us
actually
going
in
and
supporting
individual
landlords
in
terms
of
vacancies
that
they
have.
Q
It
really
should
be
the
Business
Improvement
Association
that
looks
at
how
they
position
themselves
as
best
as
they
can
to
capitalize
on
the
opportunities
that
they're
trying
to
target
in
terms
of
the
marketplace
that
they're
they're
engaged
in
or
involved
with.
So
we
can
definitely
take
a
look
at
it,
but
that's
my
initial
comment,
but
I
think
we
can
take
that
away.
Yeah
because.
N
I
understand
that
it
wouldn't
that's
a
program.
We
couldn't
be
rolled
out
from
the
finance
department.
So
that's
why
bila
can't
see,
if
there's
another
mechanism
to
achieve
those
same
goals
for
the
smaller
business
that
aren't
necessarily,
you
know
the
biggest
impact
on
the
tax
base,
even
if
it
was
funded
from
the
commercial
tax
rate.
But
my
name
is
the
other
thing.
I
wanted
to
ask
just
quickly,
because
we
have
been
talking
about
a
surtax
tax
deferral.
N
Was
it
ever
at
any
time
considered
and
I
had
an
ask
this
last
week,
which
I
apologize
I
should
have
was
ever
considered
of
a
tax
deferral
aspect
of
a
vacancy
rebook
rebate
program
where
it
isn't
being
funded
by
the
tax
base,
but
it's
actually
just
being
deferred
on
that
property,
which
buys
them
some
time
until
they
get
back
up
and
running,
and
then
they
would
be
able
to
pay.
So
in
essence,
it
is
self-funded,
but
through
a
different
through
a
different
mechanism.
M
The
complexity
of
such
a
program
would
be
immense
because
it's
only
a
portion
of
their
taxes
that
would
be
deferred,
not
the
whole
taxes,
and
then
it's
not
all
the
class.
It's
just
some
of
the
class
and
basically
the
benefit
go
to
the
same
companies
that
are
benefiting
today.
The
large
landowners
and
the
federal
government
right.
B
D
You
mr.
mayor
I'd
like
to
start
by
thanking
the
committee
chair
and,
of
course,
my
colleagues
for
the
discussion
at
the
committee
planning
committee.
It's
also
interesting
in
a
sense
that
we're
recognizing
a
temporary
use
that
is
not
necessarily
problematic,
but
that
we
don't
want
on
a
learn,
fair
basis.
A
temporary.
O
Use
of
a
surface
slot
is
not
an
issue.
The
challenge
we
face
in
the
community
and
we
face
in
an
area
like
the
Byward
market,
is
the
issue
that
there's
no
trigger
point
to
stop
it
from
being
a
temporary
use.
So,
just
for
for
record
me,
mr.
Willis,
if
you
could
speak
to
the
tools
we
have
in
terms
of
preventing
or
ensuring
that
the
use
of
a
site,
if,
if
your
goal
is
to
be
temporarily,
remains
temporary
Thank.
F
You
mr.
mayor,
first
of
all,
I
think
in
the
case
of
this
particular
application,
we're
quite
optimistic
that
once
the
construction
of
the
Confederation
line
is
complete,
this
site,
as
close
as
it
is
to
radio
station,
will
be
an
attractive
development
site
and
and
development
opportunities
are
likely
to
materialize
here
more
than
some
other
sites
that
we
have
seen.
So
we
remain
optimistic
on
that
front.
I
want
to
emphasize
this
is
a
temporary
bylaw
and
that
it
cannot
be
extended
without
Council's
approval.
F
So
council
has
the
authority
at
the
end
of
this
bylaw
just
to
refuse
to
renew
it.
Should
they
wish.
In
addition,
the
site
planning
agreement
for
the
site
will
have
an
end
date
on
it
and
it
it
wouldn't
need
to
be
renewed
through
a
new
application,
so
in
a
sense
we're
starting
fresh.
There
is
nothing
that
guarantees
with
the
approval
today
that
it
would
be
renewed
in
the
future,
and
planning
staff
would
certainly
seek
every
opportunity
we
can
to
encourage
the
owner
of
the
site
to
advance
development
of
applications
on
the
site.
O
But
to
wrap
up
on
my
comments,
certainly
I
appreciate
the
procedural
components
to
it
and
respect
that
I
we've
seen
the
issue
at
the
Cathedral,
for
example,
where
the
Cathedral
has
been
over
time.
A
temporary
use
of
a
surface
parking
lot
for
never
and
ever
so.
I
won't
be
supportive
of
that
report,
but
I
do
understand
the
temp,
the
temporary
use,
and
hopefully
it
is
a
temporary
use,
and
it's
a
reminder
for
us
around
the
table
that
if
or
when
the
applicant
comes
forward,
they
did
propose
that'd,
be
that
the
surface
log
would
be
temporary.

A
You,
mr.
mayor,
whereas
commune
demographics
indicate
that
seniors
are
one
of
the
fastest-growing
population
groups
in
our
communities,
with
nationwide
projections
that
by
2036
the
numbers
will
represent
twenty
four
point.
Five
percent
or
nine
point:
eight
million
citizens
and
whereas
PET
scan
has
announced
that
for
the
first
time,
the
share
of
seniors.
A
At
sixteen
point,
nine
percent
of
the
population
has
exceeded
the
share
of
children
at
sixteen
point:
six
percent
of
the
population
in
Canada
and
whereas,
according
to
the
2016
census
from
stats
Canada,
one
hundred
and
forty
four
thousand
one
hundred
and
forty
seniors
aged
65
and
over
reside
in
the
City
of
Ottawa,
making
up
fifteen
point
four
percent
of
the
total
Ottawa
population.
And
it
is
expected
that
by
the
year
twenty
thirty
one,
the
number
will
go
to
more
than
one
in
five
residents
living
in
Ottawa
over
the
age
of
65.
A
And
whereas
the
City
of
Ottawa
has
benefited
from
the
many
tireless
hours
of
volunteer
work
and
leadership
generously
donated
by
local
senior
citizens.
And
whereas
senior
citizens
have
helped
to
build
our
communities
through
active
living,
shared
knowledge
and
a
diversity
of
experiences.
And
whereas
the
month
of
June
is
recognized
by
the
province
of
Ontario
as
seniors
month,
therefore,
bit
resolved
that
Ottawa
City
Council
declared
June
2017
to
be
seniors
month
in
the
City
of
Ottawa,
and
that's
