Description
Ottawa City Council meeting – March 28, 2018
Agenda and background materials can be found at http://www.ottawa.ca/agendas
D
Safe
and
affordable
home
is
a
top
priority
for
this
council.
We
do
not
create
healthy
communities
by
turning
our
backs
on
those
in
need.
That
being
said,
what
we
heard
loud
and
clear
at
committee
on
Thursday
was
that
this
city
has
a
lot
of
work
to
do.
I
am
encouraged
by
the
work
that
is
being
done
by
our
housing
services
department
by
the
sector
and
by
councillors,
because
this
is
not
an
easy
task.
We
have
moved
the
pendulum
forward
in
some
areas,
but
we
are
struggling
to
maintain
adequate
services
and
others.
D
We
must
be
resolute
in
declaring
that
providing
housing
for
our
residents
cannot
be
a
this
group
or
that
group
argument.
We
must
find
a
way
to
address
the
many
and
varied
demands
from
housing
with
supports
to
rent
subsidies
and
affordable
housing
to
family
shelters
and
much
more.
Those
who
are
passionate
about
housing
must
work
together,
because
there
is
no
one
perfect
solution.
There
is
also
a
reality
check
here.
D
We
don't
have
an
endless
amount
of
funding,
and
so
we
must
take
the
opportunity
of
our
midpoint
review
to
really
make
sure
that
our
efforts
are
in
line
with
our
priorities,
and
we
will
need
upper
tier
governments
to
fill
in
the
blanks
about
how
they
intend
to
partner
and
the
type
of
programs
and
level
of
commitment
they
intend
to
fund.
The
midpoint
refresh
will
involve
extensive
consultation
over
the
next
year.
D
F
Thank
you
very
much
mr.
mayor
and
thank
you,
chair,
Dean's,
very
much
for
for
your
kind
words,
not
just
about
the
work
of
the
committee,
but
the
work
of
our
report.
I
would
certainly
echo
the
need
that
chair,
Dean's
articulated
so
well.
In
her
statement,
it
became
if
it
was
not
clear
before
it
became
clear,
I
think
during
the
duration
of
that
meeting,
that
affordability
and
housing
homelessness,
affordable,
housing,
our
problems
that
exist
throughout
our
entire
community
and
touch
everyone,
regardless
of
whether
you
at
the
outset
believe
that
they
do
or
not.
F
So
this
is
a
problem
that
is
is
growing
in
Ottawa
and
the
delegations.
That
committee
gave
us
that
an
opportunity
to
see
the
two
ottawa's,
the
one
that
we
so
frequently
see
as
we
travel
about
our
daily
business
and
the
one
that
perhaps
is
experienced
by
many
more
in
our
community,
whom
we
didn't
really
realize
it
was
affecting
and
for
those
folks,
people
who
are
struggling
to
meet
ends
every
day.
People
who
are
struggling
to
keep
a
roof
over
their
head,
their
family's,
fed
and
and
their
future
is
bright.
F
We
have
a
lot
of
work
to
do
ahead
of
us.
I
certainly
commend
chair
Dean's
and
the
staff
for
all
of
the
work
that
they
have
done.
I
have
not
met
one
person
in
this
entire
endeavor,
who
was
not
passionate
about
wanting
to
ensure
that
there
was
a
better
Ottawa
in
front
for
every
single
person
that
they
met.
F
Certainly
again,
just
in
closing
Chair
Dean's
mentioned
that
this
is
a
collaborative
effort.
This
is
going
to
take
all
of
us
together
to
attack
this
challenge
and
that's
not
just
limited
to
governments
not
just
limited
to
social
agencies
and
politicians
and
social
workers.
It
extends
to
community
the
more.
We
can
make
homelessness,
housing
and
housing,
affordability,
kitchen-table
conversation
in
our
community,
the
faster
we
can
get
to
the
point
where
we're
all
focused
on
the
same
goal:
ending
chronic
homelessness
in
Ottawa
and
ensuring
an
affordable
and
prosperous
Ottawa
for
all.
Thank
you
very
much.
E
Great
and
all
for
my
thanks
to
councillor
deans
and
councillor
Taylor,
who,
as
you
know,
is
our
special
liaison
on
housing
and
homelessness,
encourage
you
to
read
his
report
is
a
excellent
road
map
to
some
of
the
issues
that
we
have
to
deal
with,
and
we
appreciate
all
the
effort
that
the
members
of
CPS
put
into
that
day.
I
know
it
was
a
long
day
but
I
think
a
very
emotional
day
with
people
coming
forward
with
some
very
passionate
of
comments
and
arguments,
and
we
appreciate
their
input.
E
It
shows
a
healthy
balance
in
our
reserves
and
we
appreciate
the
new

that
they

H
Thanks
mr.
Mehra
I
had
a
chance
to
meet
with
staff
last
week,
but
in
reading
the
report
in
greater
detail
and
considering
the
matter
just
had
some
additional
questions
to
staff
on
the
issue.
The
first
was
in
understanding
or
trying
trying
to
understand
the
technology
that
Orgaworld
proposes
to
use
to
stream
plastic
shredding
out
from
compostable
material.
H
Does
staff
know
whether
there
are
any
other
examples
of
this
technology
and
if
so,
what
has
been
the
general
a
diversion
rate
in
percentage
terms
of
the
amount
of
plastic?
That's
successfully
diverted?
Is
it
a
hundred
or
is
it
something
slightly
less
99.9?
What
is
generally
the
diversion
rate
associated
with
the
technology.
I
Mr.
Maer
I'll
let
mr.
no
I
give
more
detail,
but
the
screening
out
of
the
plastic,
the
process
that's
being
employed
by
the
world,
is
currently
employed
in
their
London
plant
and
is
probably
in
it's
a
very
common
common
technology.
That's
used
to
screen
out
any
number
of
impurities
from
a
waste
stream
or
including
at
trail
Road,
where
we,
we
have
a
soils
processing
facility
and
we
use
screening
process,
screening
processes
to
screen
out
all
kinds
of
impurities
that
we
want
out
of
the
reusable
soil.
C
If
I
can
add
to
that,
so
the
screening
process
is
very
robust.
Orgaworld
has
two
trommel
screens
that
are
used
to
remove
plastics
and
other
contaminants
that
may
be
in
the
waste
stream,
and
it's
also
very
regulated
by
the
Ministry
of
the
Environment
and
climate
change.
So
those
products
are
regulated
products
under
the
ministry
and
they
have
to
adhere
to
all
of
the
regulations
under
those
under
the
Ministry
of
the
Environment.
H
J
Can
start
in
that
regard
and
perhaps
the
general
manager
can
can
follow
on
with
respect
to
the
legal
authority.
Think
there's
some
question
that
present
there
is
yet
to
be
municipality
Ontario
that
has
adopted
a
ban
on
plastic
bags.
You
may
know
that
the
City
of
Toronto
had
attempted
that
back
in
2012
had
it
actually
passed
that
and
then
reversed
its
decision
following
a
receipt
of
its
own
confidential
legal
opinion
that
regard,
and
that
was
back
in
2012.
I
Then,
mr.
mayor,
just
two
further
on
that,
the
report
that's
in
front
of
you,
is
about
resetting
a
contract,
somewhat
troubling
contract
with
Orgaworld
and
and
refreshing
that
contract
in
a
number
of
areas,
including
our
financial
arrangement
or
put
or
pay
arrangement
and
enhancing
the
service
to
residents.
As
you
can
see
in
in
terms
of
plastic
bags,
the
province
has
shown
a
little
bit
of
leadership
in
in
the
fact
that
you
now
have
to
pay.
I
At
the
point
of
at
the
point
of
purchasing
your
groceries,
we
also
have
taken
back
programs
where
residents
can
take
their
plastic
bags
back,
but
in
terms
of
any
long-term
planning
going
forward,
staff
will
be
bringing
forward
a
report,
probably
in
the
first
year
of
the
next
term
of
council
on
a
whole
wide
range
of
solid
waste
initiatives
which
will
include
comment
on
plastic
bags.
But
as
mr.,
what
indicated
I
believe
it
is
a
higher
jurisdiction
either
provincial
or
it's
possible,
even
federal.
H
Thank
you.
My
next
question
involves
a
question
around
compostable
bags.
I
know
that
some
Canadian
jurisdictions
permit
compostable
bags
in
their
organics
dream.
Without
permitting
plastic
bags,
cities
have
established
standards
by
which
residents
using
a
particular
standard
for
a
compostable
bag
can
use
that
in
their
organic
stream,
without
provincial
standards,
City
of
Calgary.
Does
it
with
the
province
of
Alberta,
does
not
have
a
compostable
bag
standard?
Was
that
an
idea
that
was
was
considered
by
staff
and
the
renegotiation
of
the
auricle
world
concert
contract.
I
Mr.
mayor,
the
the
idea
behind
the
usability
and
and
breaking
down
barriers
towards
usability
of
the
green
bin
program
was
to
make
it
accessible
for
all.
So
residents
are
fully
able
to
use
a
wide
range
of
products
to
contain
their
organics
to
put
into
the
green
bin
from
continuing,
and
we
would
encourage
them
to
continue
with
compostable
paper
packaging
to
use
other
packaging
in
the
household
if
they
wish
to
go
out
and
buy
compostable
plastic
or
biodegradable
plastic
bags
as
well
as
plastic
bags.
I
The
retention
time
at
Orgaworld
won't
is
not
sufficient
in
understanding
to
totally
break
down
a
biodegradable
plastic
bag,
but
it
was
considered
and
and
really
the
philosophy
here
is
to
break
down
all
barriers.
So
if
going
out
and
purchasing
a
special
bag
to
participate
in
the
green
bin
product
is
a
bit
too
the
green
bin
program
as
a
barrier
to
a
certain
individual
or
family.
We
didn't
want
that
to
be
a
barrier
so.
I
Mr.
mayor
there's
no
dispute
that
they
biodegrade
they
do
biodegrade
over
time
and
it
depends
on
the
type
of
process
that
the
municipality
is
using
to
their
green
bin
program.
I
believe
Calgary
has
a
different
processing
technology
that
probably
retains
as
longer
retention
period,
but
we're
not
sure
we
can
look
into
that
for
the
councillor
no
problem.
Okay,
thank
you.
That's
all
my
questions
right.
B
You
mr.
mayor
I'm,
going
to
start
by
telling
telling
the
members
that
I
I
support
this
initiative,
I
think
it's
a
good
first
step.
It's
not
perfect.
Of
course,
we
would
like
that
all
plastics
that
are
used
only
once
be
totally
eliminated,
but
that
requires
a
deeper
conversation.
Mr.
mayor
I
would
like
to
have
more
detail
is
if
the
the
objective
is
to
increase
the
participant
to
this
program,
what
can
we
do
so
that
condominiums
and
big
buildings
use
the
program?
C
Ramier,
yes,
multi
residential
buildings
are
a
huge
problem
and
barrier
towards
waste
diversion
in
general.
So
not
only
it's
a
challenge
to
get
green
bins
into
those
facilities,
but
it's
a
challenge
to
get
blue
and
black
box
recycling
rates
up.
We
work
individually
with
each
condo
board
or
property
management
company
on
an
individual
basis
on
how
to
implement
those
buildings
or
implement
programs
into
those
buildings.
So,
yes,
we
will
look
at
a
wide
range
of
containers
and
options
to
facilitate
waste
diversion
in
those
facilities.
C
G
I
know
that
when
I,
if
I
speak
about
och,
specifically
our
townhouses,
who
have
curbside
pickup,
we
do
have
a
high
usage
of
the
green
bin.
We
do
struggle
with
the
pads
right,
though
those
bigger
pads
were
accountability
for
recycling
and
garbage
is
a
challenge
and
I
know.
In
our
conversation,
you
discussed
a
bin
that
could
be
made
available
for
organics.
So,
in
my
mind,
that's
certainly
you
know,
CHS
being
the
city's
biggest
landlord
can
be
a
partner
in
this
change,
maybe
as
a
wrap
up
for
me.
You
know:
I,
I,
I.
G
Think
that
there's
a
lot
at
play
here
in
2023
the
province
is
putting
significant
changes
to
what
can
go
into
landfills
in
Ontario.
That
will
have
major
impacts
locally.
I.
Think
that
the
fact
that
the
industrial,
commercial
institutional
wastes
aren't
a
purview
of
our
authority
is
a
challenge
to
come
up
with
a
holistic
solution,
to
waste
diversion
and
to
recycling
and
compost.
G
Let's
be
clear
that
you
know
it's
in
my
mind:
it's
the
goal
of
putting
plastic
bags
and
the
green
bin
is
to
increase
usage,
we're
not
encouraging
folks
who
are
currently
using
the
green
bin.
To
start
that,
I
think
you
know
whatever
is
working
currently
for
those
who
are
using
it.
Let's
make
sure
that
we
continue
on
that
in
that
vein
and
continue
to
grow
it.
G
This
is
really
to
reach
out
to
the
multi
rez
groups,
landlords
across
the
city
condominiums,
who
have
not
partake
in
the
program,
and
we
have
to
be
honest
too
at
council
that
the
additional
15
cents
is
for
that
triage
portion
of
opening
up
the
bag,
taking
the
organics
out
and
then
taking
that
bag
into
waste.
It's
not
like
we're
keeping
the
plastic
bag
in
the
stream
as
part
of
the
process.
K
You
mr.
mayor
I
just
have
a
few
question:
a
clarification
on
a
report.
As
you
know
this
facility,
it
is
in
my
ward,
but
I
have
a
question
for
staff.
On
page
51,
we
had
a
revised
contract,
the
city
leaf
and
yard.
Waste
compost
could
be
sold
to
Orgaworld
our
market
rates,
while
woodchips
from
forestry
operation,
if
available,
if
available,
could
made
available
free
to
order
or
no
additional
cost.
C
C
K
Okay,
so
that
makes
sense.
My
other
question
is
what
this
is:
an
impact
on
the
yard
and
leaf
waste
and
the
collection
right
now
I
can
see
in
the
report
that
resident
will
not
be
able
to
bundle
their
their
branches
and,
if
they're,
properly
tied
up
and
put
it
on.
The
curb
is
that
is
that
going
to
be
in
a
new
process
or
we're
still
going
to
be
able
to
collect
those.
C
Mr.
Muir,
it's
status
quo
with
regards
to
the
leaf
in
yard
waste
collection,
so
residents
are
still
encouraged
to
bundle
and
tie
those
bundles
of
branches
next
to
their
green
bins.
If
they're
putting
leap
in
yard
waste
out
outside
of
the
green
bin,
it
has
to
be
in
paper
bags,
and
that
gives
us
the
option
to
bring
it
to
trail
Road
for
composting.
K
K
Really
appreciate,
if
you
could
do
that,
because
we
hear
it
again
and
again
from
our
residents
Saturday
morning
they
like
to
go
out,
you
know
clean
their
yard
and
they
drive
it
all
the
way
on
their
own
experience
and
again
not
we
are
charging
them.
So
it's
kind
of
double
dipping
on
the
resident.
My
other
concern
will
be
the
smell
and
the
order
that
it's
gonna
create
from
us.
I
Mr.
mr.
mayor,
part
of
the
the
upgrades
of
facility,
Orgaworld
is
putting
in
about
approximately
four
million
dollars
in
an
order.
A
new
odor
of
eight
mint
system,
that's
modeled
over
the
after
the
one
in
London.
We've
also
asked
for
an
odor
mitigation
plan
from
them,
which
we've
received
a
draft
already,
and
we
will
be
getting
a
third-party
technical
expert
to
review
that
odor
mitigation
plan
and
in
our
preliminary
review,
there's
no
extra
odor,
but
there's
there
was
no
order
to
begin
with.
K
I
K
We
would
say
that
let's
say
this
is
implemented
and
we
start
operation
and
we
realized
that
they
will
order
star
leaking
and
we
still
have
issues.
Do
we
what's
the
city
have
a
kind
of
legal
or
do
we
have
any
mechanism
to
work
with
them
or
enforce
them
on
dealing
with
these
issue
that
it
can
create?
After
because
you
know
right
now,
it's
not
operating
and
what
happened
after.
We
implement
everything
and
we
start
collecting
those
garbage.
C
First
off
we're
not
anticipating
odor
issues
with
this
plant.
The
feed
stock
at
Orgaworld
is
significantly
different
than
their
London
plant,
so
we're
not
taking
in
diapers.
We
are
accepting
leaf
and
yard
waste,
so
just
we're
not
anticipating
odor
issues
at
the
Ottawa
plant.
Also,
the
Ministry
of
the
Environment
and
climate
change
is
responsible
for
odour
problems
at
all.
K
Sure,
but
do
we
as
a
city,
do
we
have
do
we
have
a
clause
or
do
we
have
a
tools
that
we
go
back
to
them
Enki
and
I'm?
Happy
if
there's
not
gonna,
be
older
artists
and
I'm
not
trying
to
create
an
issue
from
doesn't
exist
now,
but
I
want
to
make
sure
and
I
want
to
assure
my
resident
and
the
people
who
live
surrounding
around
that
area,
because
they
have
a
concern
and
it's
truly
that
they
should
be
concerned
how
the
city
we
can
approach
that
and
do
we
have
do.
K
C
K
Thank
you,
I
have
a
question
concerning
the
transportation
around
facility.
Now
we're
gonna,
probably
is
the
users
is
going
to
increase
and
the
capacity
of
the
trucking
is
going
to
be
a
more
on
the
road
on
between
read,
oh
and
how
turn,
of
course,
East
and
West.
Did
we
look
at
that
and
what's
the
impact
on
the
community.
C
L
C
L
L
L
That
is
the
ultimate
goal
for
this
municipality,
the
days
of
backing
up
trucks,
and
you
know,
dumping
as
much
waste
as
possible
in
a
giant
hole
and
piling
dirt
on
top,
but
it
needs-
and
sooner
rather
than
later,
the
discussion
around
the
lack
of
green
bin
use
in
multi-unit
residential
dwellings
as
something
I
raised
at
committee.
Something
I
feel
strongly
about
and
I'm
concerned
about,
the
lack
of
participation,
particularly
not
just
citywide,
but
in
those
multi-unit
residential
dwellings,
and
you
stated
that
a
working
group
is
going
to
commence.
L
Are
you
going
to
wait
until
2019
when
these
changes
go
into
effect,
or
will
that
working
group
get
created
more
or
less
right
away
so
that
we're
ready
to
go
as
soon
as
possible?
Because,
regardless
of
this
motion
passes
today,
the
problem
is
we
don't
have
a
fulsome
green
bin
usage
in
multi-unit
residential
dwellings
and
that
needs
to
be
addressed.
So
can
you
just
clarify
the
plan?
L
I
Mayor
we
will
be
starting
right
away
and
my
personal
opinion
is
that
we're
removing
the
barriers
to
participation
in
a
multi-unit
building,
we're
gonna
hit
the
multi-unit
buildings
hard.
We
expect
a
dramatic
take-up
of
the
program
and
if
we
don't
see
that
voluntarily
we'll
be
coming
back
to
Council
excellent.
L
Thank
you
just
in
essence,
mr.
mr.
Marin
and
colleagues.
Certainly
the
recommendation
before
us
is
not
perfect.
We
do
not
want
to
see
significant
plastic
going
into
the
green
bins.
There's,
not
a
number
of
issues
that
have
been
raised
by
our
residents
about
why
they
don't
participate
and
how
the
potential
use
of
plastic
bags
will
help
mitigate
some
of
those
concerns
and
ultimately,
I
strongly
believe
that
the
net
difference
of
a
net
impact
will
be
positive,
that
we
will
be
having
much
more
waste
diverted
from
the
landfill
that
will
be.
L
You
know
the
organics
that
are
collected
and
that
the
vast
majority
of
those
plastics
that
are
used
will
be
pulled
out
of
the
system
before
that
compost
is
released,
and
we
were
reminded
committee
that,
before
the
compost
that
the
city
creates
can
be
publicly
released
or
used,
it
has
to
meet
provincial
regulations.
It
can't
be
filled
with
significant
pollutants,
so
there
is
some
some
checks,
checks
and
balances
in
that
system.
So
mr.
Mehra,
there
definitely
is
a
under
usage
of
the
green
bin
program
in
the
city.
The
city
must
address
this.
L
M
M
Listened
to
the
debate
that
we
had
and
the
Environment
Committee
and
one
of
the
things
that
is
quite
clear
and
the
councilmen
brought
in
tanana
touched
on
it,
whose
green
bin
program
is
a
good
program,
but
it's
not
working
reason.
That's
up
not
working,
it's
not
because
it's
not
a
good
program,
because
we
don't
have
enough
of
a
buy-in
to
the
program
and
doing
nothing
at
this
point
will
not
increase.
M
You
know
the
participation
ever
since
we've
had
the
debate
about
green
bin
and
on
one
of
the
counselors
there
was
some
more
roundtable
who,
on
linear
from
day,
one
was
always
stated
that
people
did
not
like
the
smell
and
did
not
like
what
would
happen
once
in
a
great
green
bin
would
wouldn't
be
sitting
there.
You
listen
to
plastics,
does
not
say
plastic
bags
does
not
saying
that
we
support
plastic
bags
in
any
way.
Actually
what
it
does
say
is
the
plastic
bags
and
are
out
in
circulation
right
now.
M
Let's
put
them
to
good
use
and
by
putting
them
to
good
use,
is
encouraging
people
to
use
some
plastic
bags
that
knee
of
what
do
green
bin
and
encouraging
the
uptake
of
participants.
The
other
question,
as
always,
Manasses
dog
owners
about
pet
waste.
Why
can
it
not
be
used
again?
This
is
a
lot
of
comments.
I
received
a
lot
of
emails
are
received
from
residents
on
saying
this
is
a
great
idea.
It's
a
long
time
coming
and
now
I
will
start
using
the
green
bin
once
it's
in
effect.
M
So
yes,
in
closing
the
green
bin
program,
will
work.
If
you
make
it
simple,
if
you
make
it
difficult,
it
will
not
work
and
I
know.
The
intent
was
always
good
and
there
are
a
lot
of
people
that
are
participating
right
now
and
doing
it
the
way.
The
way
we
had
asked
them
to
do
it
we're
not
asking
those
people
to
change
what
they
do.
They
don't
need
to
start
using
the
plastic
bags.
M
As
was
mentioned
as
a
councillor
brockington
mentioned,
the
land
field,
life's
meant
is
not
that
long.
When
you
look
at
it
in
terms
of
years
and
if
we
don't
do
anything,
all
we're
doing
is
shortening
that
lifespan.
So
I
will
be
supporting
this
motion
and
I
hope
that
the
majority
of
council
will
and
also
in
residents
of
Ottawa
well
participate
in
a
lot
larger
numbers
and
they
have
in
the
past
Thank
You.
Mr.
mayor
they'll,.
A
Thank
you
very
much
mr.
mayor
I'm
wondering
just
we
were
talking
about
this
earlier
before
the
report
came
forward.
Maryland
I'm
wondering
if
we
can
talk
a
little
bit
about
the
product,
that's
produced
in
the
new
processing
formulation
and
what
the
response
is
from
the
clients
who
actually
buy
that
product
I'm,
particularly
thinking
of
farmers,
who
want
to
use
that
product
in
their
farm
operations
either
one
sorry
we
just
chatting
before.
C
A
Perfect
just
operationally
if
we
get
the
uptake
in
the
green
bin
that
we're
hoping
from
hoping
for
in
the
in
the
you
know,
single-family
and
and
the
non
multi
raised
side
of
things.
I
can
envision
green
bins,
not
having
enough
space
for
all
the
plastic
bags.
You
know
some
people
have
three
or
four
garbage
cans
at
the
end
of
their
driveway.
Are
you
gonna
be
able
to
take
your
plastic
bag?
A
That's
full
of
green
bin
material
and
just
leave
it
at
the
corner
of
your
driveway
kind
of
outside
of
the
green
bin
plastic
box,
and
will
it
still
get
picked
up
like
have
we
thought
through
some
of
those
just
day-to-day
practical?
How
is
the
family
going
to
use
it
and
benefit
from
it
type
of
things
we're.
A
So
will
I
be
allowed,
you
know,
I
have
a
family,
we've
got.
You
know
four
or
five
adults
living
at
home
in
a
couple
kids,
because
it's
a
mixed
family
am
I,
gonna
be
allowed
to
have
two
or
three
green
bins
of
fine.
If
that's
what's
needed
to
actually
fit
everything
in
the
green
bin
and
it
is
the
city
giving
me
the
second
and
third
one
for
free
or
do
I
have
to
go
drop.
A
couple
hundred
bucks
in
a
home
hardware
to
do
that.
No.
C
N
Mr.
mayor,
so
obviously
I've
stated
my
opposition
to
accepting
plastics
in
the
green
bin
at
committee
and
I'll
I'll
be
repeating
that
dissent
today.
I
do
want
to
understand
quickly,
and
maybe
mr.
white
can
help
us
at
committee.
What
we
were
told
was
that
we
cannot
modify
the
contract
to
prohibit
Plastics
in
the
green
bin.
This
is
an
all-or-nothing
package.
We
are
either
going
to
accept
the
contract,
as
has
been
put
in
front
of
us,
or
we
reject
it
outright
and
go
back
to
renegotiate
it.
J
Mr.
mayor
I
think
the
the
reference
to
the
contract
is
that
which
are
being
presented
with
as
a
package,
and
it
is
either
approved
in
whole,
but
it
really
can't
be
subdivided
approved
in
parts,
certainly,
as
was
noted
at
that
committee,
that
the
business
case
that
underlies
the
recommendation
of
staff
for
making
and
the
assumptions
on
which
it's
based,
including
the
uptake
in
terms
of
the
collection
of
organics,
are
predicated
on
the
inclusion
of
plastics
today
right
there
was.
That
said,
there
was.
J
C
N
I
am
looking
for.
I
am
looking
for
some
glimmer
of
hope
coming
out
of
today's
decision
on
the
assumption
that
can
this
council
is
going
to
pass
that
we
can
accept
this
contract
today,
but
hopefully
we'll
be
in
a
position
very
soon
to
have
a
serious
discussion
about
the
whole.
The
whole
strategy
there
are
things
that
are
probably
going
to
be
much
more
effective
at
increasing
the
diversion
rate.
Clearbags
would
be
one
of
them
a
limit
on
the
number
of
bags.
Have
you
come
to
the
meeting
today
prepared
mr.
N
I
I
Mr.
mayor,
we
didn't
look
at
MIT
idli,
we
didn't
look
at
the
option
of
not
including
plastic
bags
and
only
including
biodegradable
plastic
bags.
My
sense,
though,
is
currently
the
program,
allows
people
to
use
newspaper
or
some
other
paper
product
or
to
go
and
purchase
paper
compostable
bags,
which
are
probably
about
the
same
value
at
the
supermarket
as
biodegradable
bags,
so
I
wouldn't
expect.
N
N
I
would
I
would
ask
you
to
use
some
of
those
significant
new
public
relations
dollars,
communications
dollars
to
to
make
residents
as
widely
aware
as
possible
that
there
is
an
alternative
to
plastic.
That
is
an
inexpensive
alternative,
especially
for
those
dog
walkers
who
probably
don't
want
to
walk
around
with
a
paper
bag
of
dog
waste.
Letting
them
know
that
there
is
a
compostable
option
would
be
extremely
helpful.
N
O
You
your
worship,
first
of
all,
my
wife
and
daughters
are
the
biggest
green
bean
fanatics
there
are
in
the
city,
I
think
my
daughter
made
a
video
on
how
to
make
a
green
bin
liner
out
of
scrap
paper
and
newsprint
and
stuff
like
that.
I've
got
thousands
of
hits,
so
our
family
will
always
do
the
green
bin.
The
way
we've
always
done
it
and
this
decision
won't
affect
it.
O
But
I,
remember
back
when
we
dealt
with
the
original
contract
and
a
number
of
us
on
council,
including
myself
and
councilor
harder
and
others
talked
about
the
need
to
allow
a
simpler,
West,
less
gross
way
of
handling
organics,
and
we
tried
to
get
people
to
buy
into
the
idea
of
biodegradable
bags
or
plastic
bags.
But
there
wasn't.
Nobody
was
hearing
any
of
that,
because
everyone
thought
virtually
everybody
in
the
city
would
participate.
Even
if
we
didn't
do
that.
O
Well,
we
now
know
that
about
60%
are
not
taking
part,
and
we
know
that
for
each
one
of
those
people
there's
a
huge
amount
of
organics
that
does
not
make
it
to
Orgaworld.
So
I
think
today
we're
recognizing
that
the
people
who've
been
doing
it.
The
traditional
or
the
purest
way
can
keep
doing
that
and
it's
still
going
to
make
that
contribution.
But
we
need
to
recognize
that
the
perfect
can
be
the
enemy
of
the
good
and
if
we
keep
insisting
on
what
we're
doing
we're
going
to
have
60%
of
people
not
participating.
O
So
the
evidence
is
there
from
the
numbers
that
we
need
to
make
a
change
and
this
change,
while
I
think
it
was
foreseeable
years
ago.
It's
clearly
obvious
to
we
need
to
do
something
like
this
to
get
people
to
participate,
and
then
but
the
question
for
today
really
is
this
new
contract
or
the
old
one.
So
this
is
your
last
chance
to
vote
for
the
old
Orgaworld
contract.
O
A
Thank
You
mr.
Maron,
oh
I
think
he
only
gets
five
hits
on
Rick
TV.
My
quick
question
was
with
regards
to
the
staff
direction
in
the
report.
Councillor
mishchenko
x'
motion
talks
about
staff,
exploring
the
feasibility
of
including
new
items
in
the
next
couple
of
years,
and
my
question
is
what
leverage
or
what
opportunities
do
we
have
with
Orgaworld
to
let's
say
with
the
coffee,
pods
or
the
composable
cutlery?
That's
mentioned
there.
A
I
Mayor
order
world's
a
willing
partner,
they
would
certainly
include
anything
the
city
wants
to
include
in
the
program
that
won't
be
a
problem.
I
think
the
point
is
in
Allu.
Allowing
new
products
to
enter
into
the
green
bin
is
really
twofold:
one
is,
did
they
buy
it,
a
group
biodegrade
appropriately
and
in
the
system
that
we're
using,
and
we
can
certainly
test
that,
and
we
want
to
set
up
a
protocol
to
test
that
properly,
because
you've
probably
heard
there
has
been
some
ad
hoc
testing
going
on.
But
the
greater
question,
in
my
mind,
is
right.
I
Now
the
province
is
bringing
in
producer
responsibility
for
the
blue
in
the
black
box,
but
have
been
remaining
silent
so
far
on
the
green
bins.
So
do
producers
get
a
free
pass
into
the
green
bin,
or
is
there
some
other
mechanism
to
allow
them
in
the
green
bin
and
I?
Think
that's,
maybe
the
trickier
question
that
cities
are
gonna
have
to
grapple
with
prior
to
allowing
additional
biodegradable
products
into
the
green
bin.
Okay,.
B
Mayor
just
a
couple
of
questions
on
another
aspect
of
the
report,
and
that
is
the
pilot
that
staff
has
been
talking
about
in
terms
of
making
containers.
If
you
will
available
in
parks
to
deposit
dog
waste
into
I'm,
wondering
if
you
can
give
us
a
timeline
for
that,
because
I
think
that's
that's
a
complaint
that
everybody
around
here
gets.
One
thing
that
makes
me
absolutely
crazy
is
when
you're
in
a
park
someone's
gone
to
the
trouble
of
bringing
a
bag
bagging
the
poop
and
then
leaving
it
there
on
the
ground
or
hanging
from
a
tree.
B
C
We're
proposing
rolling
out
the
pilot
in
the
summer
of
2019
sort
of
concurrent
with
the
new
enhanced
service
levels
that
we're
going
to
try
ten
different
parks,
so
not
just
dog
parks,
but
a
combination
of
perhaps
linear
parks,
multi-use
parks
and
dog.
Only
parks
and
we'll
try
a
variety
of
different
containers
to
see
what
is
most
appropriate.
C
P
You
mr.
Thank
You
mr.
mayor
and
I
sort
of
echo
what
councilor,
Eagle
I
said
a
little
bit
too,
because
they
we
all
have
that
problem.
I
also
have
some
people
for
some
strange
reason
that
put
in
a
plastic
bag
and
tie
them
in
a
tree
and
we're
going
to
figure
that
one
out
or
I
wanted
to
raise
a
slightly
different
point.
P
I,
actually
don't
like
plastic
going
into
this,
but
I
understand
the
need
and
trying
to
get
people
involved
so
I'm,
hoping
that
we
will
still
continue
to
do
a
lot
of
education
to
people
to
encourage
them
not
to
use
the
plastic
bags,
not
use
any
kind
of
plastic
but
to
to
infuse
biodegradable
things.
Wrapping
it
newsprint
works
for
example,
and
keeps
the
Magga.
So
there's
lots
of
other
ways.
You
can
do
it.
P
In
fact,
one
of
the
things
one
person
showed
me
was
that
in
the
summertime,
if
you
get
some
in
maggots
in
there
just
turn
your
greens
laying
on
its
side
in
your
driveway
and
the
birds,
will
eat
them
within
24
hours
and
then
we're
feeding
the
birds
healthy
food
too.
For
them.
However,
those
are
other
issues.
I
really
have
been
talking
and
they've
been
contacting
me
and
I've
heard
this
from
others.
Why
aren't
you
letting
restaurants
go
well,
I,
know
and
I?
P
P
We
really
need
provincial
regulations
on
this
I
know
we
approached
them
some
years
ago
to
see
what
could
do
about
that
and
I.
Think
they've
made
a
bit
more
mandatory,
doing
some
plans
and
various
other
things
with
large
ones,
but
I
don't
see
them
having
dealt
with
the
restaurant,
organic
problem
20
great
extent.
C
So
you're
correct,
counselor,
I,
see
and
I
waste
comes
under
the
purview
of
the
provincial
government.
There
actually
are
regulations
in
place
that
govern
waste
diversion
in
the
IC
ni
sector,
but
there
is
no
teeth
and
the
province
doesn't
have
the
the
ability
to
enforce
those
regulations.
With
the
new
proposed
organics
framework,
it
actually
specifically
addresses
IC
and
I
waste
and
they
actually
have
the
same
targets
or
similar
targets
to
municipalities.
P
If
this
doe
teeth
in
the
regulations-
and
they
don't
have
an
enforcement
mechanism,
how
are
they
good
actually
make
that
happen?
We've
actually
done
things
like
giving
residences,
green
bins
and
things
to
give
them
the
tools
they
need
to
do
this
I,
don't
think
the
problems
is
there
any?
Have
you
heard
of
anything
like
that?
Or
could
we
actually
perhaps
send
a
letter
to
them?
Saying
you've
got
this
in
place
now
you
have
the
regulations
nobody's
doing
it
are
very
fewer
doing
it
because
you
don't
make
them.
C
Staff
actually
did
submit
comments
to
the
Ministry
of
the
Environment,
exactly
along
those
lines
that
you
just
addressed.
What
are
the
the
mechanisms
to
enforce
that
the
the
IC
ni
sector
complies
so
we've
already
submitted
those
to
the
Ministry
of
the
Environment
and
climate
change,
and
we
should
be
hearing
very
shortly
on
how
they
have
addressed
municipalities.
Concern
would
be
important.
P
Q
Thank
You
mr.
mayor
I
was
at
committee
Environment
Committee,
so
asked
many
of
my
questions
and
made
my
my
went
pretty
clear
on
on
how
I
stand
on
those
essentially
the
plastic
bag.
So
I
won't
repeat
any
of
that
now,
but
just
in
the
conversation
today,
just
a
couple
of
couple
of
questions
have
raised
themselves
for
me.
I,
just
wonder
if
you
can
tell
me
how
much
how
many
tons
of
dog
waste
go
into
the
trail
road
facility
today.
C
Q
Q
Compostable
dog
waste
bags
are
prolific,
I
mean
they
they're
everywhere.
Even
the
ones
I
see
tied
up
in
trees
in
my
neighborhood
are
mostly
in
compostable
bags,
because
that's
what
you
buy
like
you
anytime,
you
go
out
and
buy
a
box
of
dog
waste
bags,
they're
compostable,
so
so
on
the
on
the
plastic
bags,
if
in
say,
four
or
five
years
from
now,
either
the
city
which
I
hope
will
happen
within
the
next
few
years
or
the
province
were
to
ban
plastic
bags,
am
I
correct
to
assume,
then
that
we
would
be.
Q
C
Q
If
plastic
bags
are
no
longer
allowed
through
legislation,
there's
no
way
for
us,
then
to
ask
Orgaworld
or
renegotiate
with
Orgaworld,
because
my
understanding
is
that
compostable
bags
will
break
down,
but
they
just
need
more
time
to
do
so
so
I'm
just
you
know,
I
think
that
it's
I
think
we
need
to
be
clear
that
if
we
allow
plastic
bags
today,
we
are
going
to
pay
for
them
for
12
years,
whether
we're
using
that
service
or
not
a
little
bit
like
it
seems
to
me.
Like
the
last
contract,
we
had.
J
Mr.
mayor
take
that
certainly
there's
there's
nothing
that
would
prevent
the
city
and
Orgaworld
from
doing
as
they've
done
today
and
negotiating
some
change
in
the
future.
As
to
whether
the
use
of
compostable
plastic
versus
non
compostable
plastics
would
have
a
significant
change
in
the
actual
process
that
Orgaworld
has
to
go
through
and
and
and
recognizing
that
that
part
of
the
additional
fee
is
the
capital
improvements
that
are
required
for
that
processing
and
as
to
whether
that,
with
the,
whether
there
be
any
change
by
virtue
of
the
use
of
compostable
plastic
bags.
J
Q
I
R
Remain
magic
may
I,
just
add
just
one
point,
though,
that
it
gets
lost
in
this
also
is
and
I
think
counts
too
sure
le
stated
at
best.
If
you
keep
the
status
quo,
contract
you're
still
maintaining
a
2.7
million
dollars
in
payments
for
unused
capacity
until
2022.
So
when
you
add
in
all
the
numbers
this
contract,
even
though
there
may
be
a
15
cent
a
month
for
Bareilles
whole
charge,
also
eliminates
many
of
the
worst
things
that
were
in
the
original
contract.
Q
Agreed,
but
you
know
we
still
are
asking
people
who
are
using
the
green
bin
today,
to
you
know
they
have
been
subsidizing,
those
who
haven't
and
we're
asking
them
to
continue
to
an
ending,
and
we
could
be
asking
people
to
continue
paying
a
Webby
for
a
number
of
years
for
a
service
that
that
they
can't
use
so
I'll
leave
it
at
that.
Thank.
R
R
That
was
also
that
the
farming
community
is
comfortably
asked
earlier
requested
on
our
question,
but
freshest
the
compost
coming
out
of
Ottawa
as
the
best
compost
that
they
could
use
on
their
land
on
their
farming
areas.
You
know
so
now.
Those
are
some
of
the
reasons
why
the
old
contract
was
negotiated
and
why
people
sitting
around
this
council
table
voted
for
it,
because
we
saw
a
need
to
do
something
different.
We
saw
a
need
to
look
at
our
practices
of
days
gone
by
of
digging
a
hole
and
putting
garbage
in
the
ground.
R
I
took
a
trip
out
on
the
expense
of
council
or
a
city
to
Sweden
to
see
what
they
were
doing
differently
and
in
that
coming
in
that
country
they
had
pressure
from
1973
when
the
price
of
fuel
rose
beyond
their
expected
that
limits,
so
they
had
to
go
out
and
search
for
another
source
of
energy
and
the
contour.
The
garbage
stream
for
them
became
that
source
of
energy,
and
in
that
country
they
even
went
as
far
as
recycling
seaweed
in
order
to
get
stuff
to
create
biodiesel
from
so
you
know.
R
If
there
are
other
countries
doing
things
better
and
different,
then
we
should
continue
to
be
following
some
of
those
leads
or
creating.
Our
own
leads
I
think
this
contract
today,
looking
at
it.
Yes,
there
are
some
concerns
with
the
use
of
the
plastic
and
the
end
product
that
may
come
out
of
it,
but
in
the
long
run
it
is
a
good
thing
for
the
city
and
it's
definitely
a
good
thing
in
terms
of
the
West
End,
with
the
car,
mountain
and
other
landfills
that
are
around.
R
Having
said
all
that,
I
do
have
a
couple
of
questions
with
for
staff,
and
one
of
those
question
I
think
comes
to
McKenney
asked
her,
but
excuse
me
what
the
dog
waste
in
you
know.
You
mentioned.
Monsieur
know
about
surveying
a
hundred
homes,
and
you
got
that
number
in
terms
of
you
had
the
audit
that
she
did.
Did
you
multiply
that
in
any
way
shape
or
form
to
a
bigger
number
or
thoughts
of
putting
into
a
bigger
household,
to
see?
What
exactly
is
the
waste
that
we're
collecting
for
dog
waste?
C
It's
based
on
audited
information
from
those
hundred
homes.
It
is
extrapolated
out
to
address
the
two
hundred
and
eighty
thousand
homes
that
are
in
the
city
right
now,
single-family
homes.
We
also
be
doing
audits
again
this
summer
for
seasoned
audits,
so
we'll
be
getting
more
up-to-date
information
as
well
on
what
the
waste
stream
is
consisting
of
at
this
point
in
time.
Thank.
R
C
R
Thank
you
for
that
and
the
comment
you
made
this
morning
or
I
think
you
or
mr.
Wylie
made
regarding
the
pilot
in
parks
starting
in
2019,
and
you
mentioned
that
there
would
be
ten
parks
selected
to
do
that
pilot.
My
question
is
for
this
summer
currently
in
terms
of
parts
that
have
that
pressure
right
now,
where
the
dog
poop
is
dropped
off
into
the
garbage
bins.
Is
there
anything
that
we
could
do
this
year
for
even
a
short
period?
The
summer
itself,
to
put
some
green
bins
in
those
parks?
Is
that
available?
R
C
Enhanced
contract
with
Orgaworld
the
enhancements
actually
won't
be
in
place
until
2019.
So,
even
if
we
were
to
put
green
bins
and
parks,
there
would
be
nowhere
for
us
to
dispose
of
that
material.
In
addition,
the
bylaw
currently
prohibits
you
from
putting
dog
waste
into
park
bins.
So
there's
a
lot
of
work
that
has
to
be
done
before
2019
to
even
contemplate
allowing
dog
waste
into
bins
in
the
parks,
so
the
bylaw
would
have
to
be
updated.
We'd
have
to
purchase
the
bins.
C
R
C
D
D
In
retrospect
it
was
more
of
a
back
of
an
envelope
calculation
than
it
was
fact,
and
when
council
gets
poor
information,
we
make
poor
decisions
and
I
think
that
is
probably
one
of
the
very
poor
decisions
that
we
made.
So
happily
today
is
a
day
for
turning
the
page.
But
having
said
that,
I
must
say:
no.
This
report
has
only
been
live
as
I
understand
it.
For
the
last
two
weeks
and
in
those
two
weeks,
I
have
received
a
lot
of
varied
correspondence.
I
Mr.
mayor
we've,
the
rigor
around
getting
to
this
point
in
time
was
quite
a
bit
of
work
that
we
did
in
the
back
end
with
a
consultant
in
terms
of
modeling
participation
rates,
capture
rates,
etc.
Those
are
all
available
in
a
set
of
memos
that
have
been
I
believe
put
on
the
councillors
share
Drive
for
their
information.
So
if,
if
council
councillors
wish,
they
can
certainly
go
on
and
take
a
look
at
those
memos,
it's
pretty
well
clearly
laid
out
in
terms
of
what
numbers
we'll
expect
yeah.
D
I
I'm,
that's
not
the
question
I'm
asking
though
I
mean
I'm
sure
you've
done
your
due
diligence,
this
time,
I,
don't
think
we're
going
to
repeat
the
last
error.
But
my
question
is
about
the
public
consultation
and
the
public
buy-in
to
the
new
plan
and
I
understand
the
desire
to
expedite
this
process
so
that
we
can
start
saving
the
money
from
the
put
and
pay
I
understand
that
but
I
just
I'm
not
confident.
D
Having
only
seen
the
report
in
the
last
two
weeks
that
we've
really
engaged
the
public
in
something
that
is
a
very
public
matter.
Every
one
of
us
participates
in
these
programs.
So
what
kind
of
public
consultation
has
been
done
and
how
confident
are
we
that
the
public
is
on
board
with
this
direction?.
I
I
D
Disagree
and
I
think
that
we're
certainly
moving
in
the
right
direction.
I
just
we
have
the
report
only
went
live
for
two
weeks
and
I
think
once
you
know,
it's
live
I
think
there
could
have
been
more
of
an
attempt
to
hear
directly
from
the
public
and
I
know.
Members
of
council
heard
I
certainly
heard
lies,
but
you
know
would
have
liked
to
have
a
little
bit
more
time
with
it
to
really
understand
the
views
of
my
residents,
because
they
were
very
varied.
What
came
in.
I
Okay
and
mr.
mayor,
just
maybe
to
add
what
I've
said
about
the
modeling
etc
we
hit.
We
have
heard
also
through
some
of
the
focus
groups,
that
our
communications
staff
have
done,
that
the
yuck
factor
is
a
huge
barrier
and
that's
the
biggest
barrier.
We've
heard
the
yuck
factor
in
sex
smells
maggots.
You
can
go
on
and
on
that
has
been
the
barrier.
That
is
pretty
clear,
I.
Think
in
what
we've
heard
from
the
public
about
this
program.
I
D
E
S
Very
much
mr.
mayor,
pretty
much
all
that
can
be
said
about
coffee,
pods
and
plastic,
and
dog
poop
has
been
at
this
point.
But
allow
me
to
sum
up
on
what
I
see
are
the
key
points
to
the
decision
in
front
of
us
to
that
just
raised
by
by
my
colleague
about
public
consultation.
I,
think
I
would
take
a
different
view
on
this.
One,
which
is
the
public
consultation
all
took
place
in
the
past
few
years
about
what
are
the
impediments
to
participating
in
the
program?
Why
aren't
you
doing
it?
S
What
are
the
obstacles
with
that
information
and
what
we
knew
of
the
failings
or
weaknesses
of
the
existing
Orgel
world
contract,
our
staff?
Thank
you
to
our
city
manager,
our
legal
staff
and
and
many
others
went
back
and
renegotiated
with
finally
a
willing
partner
at
Orgaworld
in
order
to
try
to
address
what
we
knew
were
the
obstacles,
so
we
do
not
come
forward
with
the
renegotiated
labor
contract
with
bus
drivers
or
others
to
the
public
and
say
now.
What
do
you
think
we'd
like
to
consult
before
we
sign
this
in
the
same
sort
of
way?
S
Think
what's
really
critical
here
is
something
that
I've
said
it
at
committee
two
days
ago,
is
that
you
can
stick
to
the
view
that
the
public
people
at
large
might
somehow
someday
with
enough
education,
become
a
perfect
Green
citizen
and
design
a
program
that
only
allows
those
who
are
of
that
perfect
citizen
to
feel
good
enough
to
be
part
of
it
or
you
can
recognize
at
some
point.
There
are
real
obstacles
to
people
participating.
They
may
be
in
their
own
minds.
S
They
may
be
physical,
but
their
obstacles
and
they're
not
doing
it
entrenching
ourselves
in
a
hardened
position
and
hoping
that
they
will
do
better
he's
not
getting
us
anywhere.
We've
had
to
move
to
them
now
not
move
entirely
and
say
we're
gonna
come
and
take
it
from
your
kitchen
counter
for
for
you
or
whatever
it
may
be,
but
to
to
address
the
main
obstacles
we
heard
and
that
so-called
ik
factor
the
for
particularly
people
in
multi
residential
buildings,
of
being
able
to
have
an
impermeable
bag
container.
S
We
mustn't
lose
sight
of
the
fact
that
this
contract
is
about
more
than
just
those
couple
of
items
that
I
mentioned,
and
we've
spent
a
long
time
debating
it's
a
big
contract
trying
to
address
a
number
of
issues
and,
above
all,
better
value
for
the
citizens,
better
value
for
our
money,
more
convenience,
plastics,
the
growth
of
use
of
single-use
plastics
multi-use
plastics.
They
all
become
waste
in
the
end
globally
is
a
great
concern
to
me,
but
there's
nothing
about
this
new
approach.
S
That's
going
to
be
an
incitement
to
the
residents
of
Ottawa
to
buy
more
plastics
and
use
more
plastics,
the
bags
that
we
expect
the
vast
majority
of
bags.
We
expect
to
be
used
as
containers
are
those
that
you
and
I
got
from
the
grocery
store
when
we
forgot
to
bring
the
reusable
bag
that
we
all
wanted
to
bring,
but
somehow
just
don't
have
with
us
when
we're
there
at
the
counter.
S
You
know
what
I'm
talking
about
so
not
the
perfect
Green
citizen
either
those
bags
are
out
there
and
until
in
a
different
approach
on
a
different
day,
plastic
bags
may
become
banned
in
Ottawa,
globally,
they're
there
and
they're
out
there.
Let's
use
them
for
our
citizens,
we're
not
saying
you
have
to
go
out
and
buy
a
new
bag
use
all
the
bags
you've
got
and
if
you
run
out
well,
then
you
may
want
to
or
need
to
so
I.
Don't
expect
any
more
plastic
to
go
in
to
our
landfill
than
is
now
I.
S
Don't
expect
any
more
contamination
of
the
stream
from
plastic
than
currently
occurs
where
people
are
in
fact
putting
bags
in
that
they're
not
supposed
to
in
the
green
bin,
but
really
importantly,
with
this
contract,
we
now
have
the
ability
to
as
a
council
decision
in
a
year
or
two
years,
maybe
sooner
make
it
mandatory
that
the
only
bags
are
compostable
ones.
We're
not
doing
that
now,
because
there
isn't
a
uniform
standard
provincially
and
because
we
didn't
want
to
impose
that
cost
initially
for
people
we
wanted
to
try
and
make
that
that
shift.
S
S
Finally,
I
just
want
to
make
a
point
to
residents
that
quote:
don't
bother
to
participate
in
this
program
because
they're
opposed
to
it
or
they
have
a
physical
obstacle.
I
think
I
need
to
issue
a
warning
to
you,
which
is
you're
out
of
excuses.
If
you
really
are
just
making
excuses,
oh
it's
too
icky!
Well,
that's
not
there
anymore!
We've
taken
away
from
you!
If
you
said
I
would
participate
if
we've
taken
away
all
the
ifs
and
one
more
of
the
ifs
that
exists,
that
some
people
don't
know
is
you
can
get
a
smaller
container.
S
S
You
so
I
think
we've
done
all
we
can
to
make
it
convenient
it's
your
turn
now
I'd
say
to
our
residents,
otherwise
you're
just
offloading
the
cost,
your
neighbor,
who
is
doing
the
right
thing
who
is
participating
and
I,
don't
think
anyone
sees.
That
is
fair.
So
this
is
a
better
deal
for
taxpayers.
It's
more
convenient
and
I
think
we
can
deal
with
the
plastics
problem
in
the
coming
months
or
years
just
not
today.
Thank
you.
Thank.
E
You
just
before
we
vote
on
the
Orgaworld
contract
and
enhancements
to
the
Greenman
program,
I'd
like
to
take
a
moment
to
thank
our
city
manager,
Steve
canna,
lacus,
Kevin,
Wylie,
Maryland,
giorno,
David,
White,
Isabel,
jasmine
and
CMO
staff
for
their
many
months
of
ongoing
discussions
and
negotiations
with
order
world
to
finalize
the
recommendations
that
are
before
us
and
Grahm.
Alcea
totally
keep
it
big.
E
Have
unprecedented
change
in
the
solid
waste
services,
with
significant
provincial
legislative
changes,
a
change
in
ownership
at
Orgaworld
and
changes
in
the
management
team
undertaking?
These
discussions
with
Orgaworld
staff
have
worked
tirelessly
to
provide
options
that
improve
the
contract
terms
and
enhance
services
for
residents
with
respect
to
the
public
consultation.
I
agree
with
councillor
Turner
Shenko,
the
public
consultation.
E
First
and
foremost,
we
had
the
public
meeting
which
lasted
four
and
a
half
hours
at
the
Environment
and
climate
protection
committee,
and
secondly,
I
have
heard
nothing
but
positives
when
I've
been
out
and
about
in
the
community.
People
are
saying,
thank
goodness,
you're,
going
to
allow
the
use
of
plastic
bags
and
that's
something
that
we've
heard
for
a
long
time
and
I
think
the
best
public
consultation
is
ofter
that
often
that
consultation
with
ordinary
homeowners
and
renters
that
you
meet
on
the
street
shopping
malls
and
the
like.
E
E
Octants
to
use
the
green
bin
because
of
the
so-called
yuck
factor
and
staff
have
put
forward
a
recommendation
that
responds
to
these
specific
concerns
that
we've
heard
from
the
public.
The
recommendation
also
eliminates
the
current
over
payments
for
unused
capacity
does
not
extend
the
length
of
the
current
contract
and
will
eliminate
the
cost
of
ongoing
litigation
and
arbitration.
The
proposed
contract
will
provide
service
enhancements
and
cost
fifteen
cents
per
household
per
month,
substantially
cheaper
than
the
bags
that
you
buy
at
various
hardware
and
grocery
stores.
E
B
E
Waste
diversion
strategy
early
in
the
next
term
of
council
will
be
spending
special
attention
on
how
we
can
improve
our
communications
with
residents
to
strengthen
our
diversion
rates.
But
this
important
wide-ranging
discussion
is
not
what
is
before
us
today.
What
we're
being
asked
to
approve
is
the
amendments
to
the
existing
agreement.
That,
quite
frankly,
was
as
you
know,
and
we've
heard
time,
and
time
again
was
one
of
the
worst
signed
agreements
in
the
city's
history.
Council.
E
Outreach
to
educate
residents
will
be
critical
to
the
success
of
these
service
changes
and
we
are
and
are
needed
to
meet
our
diversion
targets.
If
this
report
passes
today,
we
will
need
all
of
you
to
get
behind
the
program
and
help
communicate
these
service
changes
to
the
residents.
We
serve
I'd
like
to
thank
councillor
Turner
Shenko
for
his
leadership
throughout
the
debate
on
this
report
and
members
of
the
Environment
and
climate
Action
Committee
for
their
good
work.
E
E
Pointed
out
voting
against
this
is
an
essence
voting
for
the
status
quo,
which
is
not
a
good
deal
for
taxpayers
and
it's
all
clearly
not
working
from
a
waste
management.
Point
of
view
again,
I
want
to
thank
our
staff
under
the
able
leadership
of
city
manager
Steve
counter
lacus
for
their
dedication.
That
was
required
to
bring
this
negotiated
agreement
to
Council
for
our
consideration.
So
on
the
report
yeas
and
nays.
Please.
C

Okay,
thank
you.
The

FURTHER
RESOLVED
that
there

you
no

pursuant

of
the
Planning
Act.
Thank
you.
Okay,.
L
Thank
You
mr.
mayor
good
morning
to
everyone.
It's
certainly
easy
to
question
what
harm
the
motion
my
colleague
is
putting
on
the
floor
does
simply
increasing
building
height
and
density
for
a
building
fronting
Riverside
from
two
to
three
stories.
This,
despite
the
fact
that
the
Planning
Committee
heard
from
delegations,
debated
and
discussed
this
file
and
voted
to
just
to
decrease
the
height
from
three
stories
to
two.
This
file
has
an
11
year
history
in
the
Moonies
Bay
Riverside
Park
community,
11
years
previously
owned
by
the
public
school
board.
L
The
city
purchased
the
land,
with
the
intent
to
control
how
development
unfolds
control
a
community
lead,
Council,
approved
concept
plan
was
developed
and
what
was
the
purpose
of
a
concept
plan
to
direct
and
shape
development,
not
guarantee
what
happened,
but
with
community
input
to
help
direct
and
shape,
and
so
there's
been
a
significant
process
here
on
this
file,
the
concept
plan
called
for
low
and
medium
density,
residential
housing
and
a
park.
It
was
silent
on
a
commercial
or
residential
strip.
L
Fronting
Riverside
Drive
in
2014,
the
city
transferred
the
land
to
the
Ottawa
community,
Lands
Development
Corporation,
with
the
intent
of
them
selling
this
property
in
2015.
After
getting
elected,
I
met
with
various
community
groups,
local
organizations,
church
groups,
schools,
anyone
that
wanted
to
talk
about
this
filed
to
get
a
true
sense
of
where
the
community
stood.
2016
canoe,
Bay,
having
gone
through
their
process,
identify
lat,
that's
right.
L
It
was
always
proposed
as
two
floors
and
the
third
floor
came
in
after
the
fact,
when
you
factor
in
some
of
the
pushback
in
the
community
about
the
overall
density
traffic
issues,
the
loss
of
a
buffer
that
was
in
the
original
concept,
housing
types
that
have
changed
the
addition
of
the
commercial
residential
strip.
There
are
a
lot
of
reasons
within
the
community
why
they
would
be
upset
and
why
they're
pushing
back
and
why
they've
raised
concerns.
The
motion
that
was
brought
to
committee
mr.
mayor
and
colleagues
was
about
striking
the
right
balance.
L
It
wasn't
to
vote
against
this
file.
There's
some
sound
planning
rationale
for
this
file
to
be
approved
today
and
I
did
support
this
and
vote
in
favor
of
the
overall
file
at
committee,
but
this
was
about
striking
the
right
balance
within
the
community
who
were
beyond
tie
after
eleven
years.
It's
been
an
11-year
journey.
Many
in
the
community,
including
myself,
are
dissatisfied
with
the
process
used
by
the
Ottawa
committee.
L
Lands
Development,
Corporation
I've
got
two
public
inquiries,
I'll
be
filing
at
the
end
of
today's
meeting
and
that
there
have
been
a
number
of
changes
made
to
this
proposal
during
this
journey.
So
if
you
take
the
item
that
councillor
harder
is
moving
today
in
in
complete
isolation,
you
may
wonder
why
I'm
pushing
back,
but
you
have
to
understand
the
greater
picture
and
how
this
files
evolved
a
number
of
changes
and
push
backs
within
the
community,
and
this
is
really
about
striking
an
overall
balance
within
the
community.
So,
mr.
L
P
You
mr.
mayor
well,
I'd
share
the
auto
community
lands
corporation
and
we
work
under
the
mandate
given
to
us
by
the
city,
which
is
not
just
to
get
money
for
the
city,
but
is
also
to
make
sure
that
they're
kind
of
developed
we
get
that
we
have
some
say
in
how
they
go
about
doing
it.
I
can't
get
into
what
we
do,
because
those
are
all
it
done.
Incompetence,
but
I
will
talk
about
the
planning
committee
meeting
I
was
there
I
heard
the
small
number
of
people
who
came
out
to
speak
to
it.
P
I
didn't
hear
any
of
them.
Talk
about
this
building
I'd
heard
a
lot
of
talking
about
how
many
units
are
going
to
be
etc.
So
I've
looked
over.
The
whole
plan
report
that
this
planning
committee
did
on
this.
The
zoning
that
we're
putting
on
there
would
allow
buildings
in
the
residential
Bart
to
go
up
to
six
storeys.
The
developer
has
brought
them
down
to
four
storeys,
because
the
community
asks
that
it
be
less
intensive
they
actually
put
in
the
resident.
P
The
community
commercial
was
put
in
fairly
early
on
in
our
deliberations
because
we
had
requests
coming
that
people
could
use
local
residential
commercial
there
from
some
from
residents
some
from
city
staff
from
other
different
places.
So
it
was
actually
a
requirement
when
the
land
was
sold,
that
there
be
some
commercial
to
provide
local
services,
because
there's
a
fair
number
of
people
going
to
be
living
there,
mostly
seniors,
because
a
senior
retirement
residents
and
partial
care
residents
they
do
caused
a
lot
of
issues
and
communities.
P
I
know
any
of
us
that
have
seniors
residences
know
that
they
don't.
The
problem
that
comes
with
this
building
is
really
quite
strange.
It's
right
on
a
major
arterial.
It
was
actually
originally
shown
as
a
two-story
building
one
long
building
with
discussions
on
the
site
plan
with
cleaveth
residents.
They
actually
broke
it
into
two
buildings
in
order
to
give
green
space
in
between
and
make
a
nice
walkway
going
through,
which
improve
the
the
look
of
it
enormous
Lee.
So
they
didn't
stay
with
what
was
originally
done
with
their
things.
P
Then,
because
you
now
have
two
buildings
and
freighting
services
in
those
buildings
to
be
really
meeting
the
accessibility,
they
may
Envy
glee
not
have
to
do
it
today,
but
they
will
in
a
few
years
time
they
should
have
elevators
of
these
buildings.
The
new
buildings
usually
do,
but
that
means
two
elevators
instead
of
one
and
to
handle
that
cost.
They
went
to
a
third
storey
interesting
enough.
P
The
residents
won't
even
see
that
third
storey,
because
between
this
building
and
where
the
residents
live,
are
the
four-story
seniors
buildings
on
a
little
bit
higher
elevation,
so
they're
completely
screened
from
that
direction.
You'll
only
see
them
really
from
the
road
plus
a
little
bit
of
an
angle
and
I,
don't
see
why
that
is
going
to
create
a
problem
in
it.
It
wasn't
raised
during
the
meeting
by
the
residents
this
bulk,
as
at
the
remediate,
was
raised
by
the
councilor
after
they
had
spoken,
and
it
almost
was
like
the
committee
was
saying.
P
P
I
think
you
do
an
excellent
job
in
that,
but
I
don't
think
this
is
actually
going
to
make
a
difference
to
actually
what
it's
going
to
look
like
or
how
it's
going
to
function,
but
it
can
make
a
difference
in
the
economic
value
of
it.
It
could
lead
to
an
appeal
to
the
Ontario
missile
board.
It
could
lead
to
delays,
it
could
lead
to
all
sorts
of
things
and
I.
P
Think
if
you
look
at
the
layout
with
that
walkway
that
goes
between
the
buildings
in
the
little
green
space
there,
the
sitting-down
space
that
they
were
able
to
add
into
this
because
they
separated
the
two
buildings
makes
us
such
a
better
development
and
our
job
isn't
to
just
help
counselors
out.
Unfortunately,
our
job
is
citywide.
What
should
we
be
doing
on
these
developments?
That's
for
the
physician
that
community
lands
take
it.
We
don't
look
at
it
just
from
the
residents,
but
we
do
what
we
can.
We
moved
lower
density
around
the
edges.
P
We
don't
want
that
either.
So
I
think
that
the
what
you've
got
is
actually
a
really
and
I
think
you
actually
spoke
to
that
and
you've
said
that
yourself
that
basically
no
it's
an
imposition
cuz
any
new
development
and
any
of
us
that
had
new
developments
come
into
their
community
knows
it's
an
imposition
on
the
local
community.
It
changes
things
it
gone
from
backing
out
of
school
to
backing
on
a
development
area.
P
I
had
that
happen
with
another
building
and
it
caused
a
lot
of
consternation,
but
but
the
end
we
came
up
with
something
that
much
much
higher
than
we
want
it,
but
it
actually
works
and
I
think
this
one
will
work
as
well,
so
I
would
suggest
that
we
actually
vote
in
favor
of
councilor
Harder's
motion,
I
think
it
would.
It
actually
is
a
good
one.
The
design
committee
liked
it
and
all
sorts
of
other
things
have
done
and
they've
made
changes
in
a
corporative
all
of
those
things
into
it.
Thank
you.
Mr.
berry,
Thank.
H
Thank
You
mr.
mayor
I
just
wanted
to
take
a
brief
moment
to
explain
why
I
supported
the
staff
recommendation
when
this
came
to
Planning
Committee
and
before
I.
Do
so
I
want
to
acknowledge
councilor
Wilkinson's
comments.
Counter
Brockington
has
been
nothing
but
diligent,
thorough,
consultative
and
worked
very,
very
hard
prior
to
planning
committee
and
since
to
speak
to
each
of
us
and
to
ensure
that
we
had
a
sense
of
what
what
the
issues
were
both
substantive
and
processed.
H
The
recommendation
for
a
number
of
reasons,
I
think
the
most
important
was
intensification,
can
be
a
very
difficult
file,
a
difficult
word
and
as
a
councilor
representing
it
or
board,
I
know
all
about
the
fact
that
sometimes,
when
you
get
proposals
that
increase
the
density
on
a
particular
lot,
there
is
an
instinctive
negative
reaction
to
that
and
I
think
what
I've
often
been
challenged
with
is
making
sure
that
I'm
clear
in
my
mind
what
the
pros
and
cons
of
intensification
are.
We
know
I
think
what
many
of
the
positive
ones
are.
H
We
know
that
when
we
build
on
existing
infrastructure,
we
save
current
and
future
taxpayers
from
having
to
build
and
maintain
and
operate
new
infrastructure.
We
know
it's
good
for
transit.
We
know
it's
good
for
walkable
communities,
and
so
that's
the
pro
side.
The
con
side
is.
We
have
to
make
sure
that
intensification
is
appropriate
from
shadowing
to
setback
issues.
Privacy
concerns
design
architecture.
We
need
to
make
sure
that
when
we
do
intensify,
we
do
it
in
a
way
that's
appropriate
and
sensitive
to
the
needs
of
existing
residents.
H
That
led
me
to
think
that
there
was
a
reason
to
lower
or
reduce
the
the
height
and,
moreover,
I
think
you
know
we
really
have
an
important
job
to
make
sure
that
residents
understand
when
density
is
a
positive
thing
and
when
it
isn't
councilor
leaper,
in
this
very
same
meeting,
supported
a
staff
recommendation
to
increase
the
height
of
a
building
in
his
ward
from
six
stories
to
12
stories.
Notwithstanding
that
I
think
every
delegate
who
came
from
his
word
to
that
meeting
was
opposed
to
it,
but
he
made
the
calculation
that
this
was
density.
H
That
worked
in
this
case
and
I
think.
Similarly,
my
assessment
of
the
Riverside
application
was
a
third
story,
could
actually
contribute
to
the
overall
application,
knowing
and
understanding
that
these
can
be
sensitive
issues
and
that
the
issue
of
density
and
intensification
really
does
need
to
be
evaluated
to
a
certain
extent
on
a
case-by-case
basis,
so
that
just
explains
a
little
bit.
Why
I
supported
the
staff
recommendation,
but
I
do
want
to
thank
counselor
at
the
brockington,
because
I
think
he's
demonstrated
exemplary
leadership
in
terms
of
driving
this
file
forward.
Thank
you.

The.
D
D
Whereas
for
desk
decades,
organizations
and
individuals
have
worked
diligently
to
increase
awareness
of
women's
rights
and
bring
the
issues
of
parody
to
the
forefront,
whereas
the
United
Nations
has
declared
that
the
critical
mass
necessary
for
women
to
make
a
visible
impact
on
the
style
and
content
of
political
decision-making
is
30
percent.
And
whereas
our
federal
government
2015
created
the
first
gender
balance
cabinet
and
has
just
released
the
first
federal
budget
bill
to
recognize
the
importance
of
gender
equality
in
our
society.
D
Whereas
other
major
Canadian
cities
such
as
Vancouver,
have
created
special
committees
that
bring
forward
issues
of
concern
and
work
to
ensure
gender
equality
within
their
policies
and
initiatives.
And
whereas
currently
Ottawa
City
Council
has
a
female
representation
of
less
than
17
percent.
And
whereas
currently
Ottawa
advisory
committees
have
an
under-representation
of
women.
D
Therefore,
be
it
resolved
that
Ottawa
City
Council
recommend
that
the
mayor
and
city
staff
examined
the
options
for
including
the
role
of
a
council
representative,
special
liaison
for
women's
issues
and
a
women's
Bureau
to
provide
a
gender
lens
on
our
policies
and
practices
and
provide
the
results
in
the
2018
2:22
governance
report
and
be
it
further
resolved
that
the
city,
clerk
and
Solicitor
reviewed
the
city's
recruitment,
selection
and
appointment
practices
for
advisory
committees
with
the
goal
of
appointing
50%
representation
of
women
in
the
next
term
of
counsel.
So
mr.
D
mayor
run,
let
me
just
speak
to
this
briefly.
There's
no
doubt
that
in
the
last
year,
or
so,
there
has
been
a
renewed
focus
on
gender
issues
and
I
think
that
we
are
all
witnesses,
witnessing
positive
change
at
all
levels
of
government
and
in
all
factions
of
our
society.
This
motion
alone,
I,
can
tell
you,
has
garnered
a
great
deal
of
interest,
and
attention
and
I
personally
have
been
overwhelmed
by
the
outpouring
of
support
that
I
have
received
in
putting
this
motion
forward.
D
I
also
wanted
to
acknowledge
partner
organizations,
including
FCM
Cowie,
and
the
caucus
a
day,
Monta
Ellis
in
Montreal,
who
have
been
working
with
Councilman,
Kenney
and
I
in
developing
this
motion
and
I
just
wanted
to
give
a
shout
out
to
a
Cowie
who
have
really
been
promoting
gender
equality
at
Ottawa,
City
Hall
for
the
last
14
years
and
I
think
you
should
be
proud
of
the
peach
scarves
wardrobe
choices
that
you
see
at
the
council
table
today.
So
I
think
what
that
is
is
a
visual
indicator
of
your
success.
D
It's
clear
to
me
that
there
is
an
emerging
consensus
that
we
as
a
city
need
a
stronger
and
more
sustained
focus
on
women's
issues
locally,
while
we've
been
making
it
incremental
process
progress
through
our
diversity
and
inclusion
branch,
we
have
not
gone
far
enough
to
advance
gender
equity
in
our
city.
What
is
clearly
evident
is
that
this
will
not
happen
organically.
D
If
we
do
nothing,
nothing
will
change,
and
that
is
not
good
enough.
It's
not
good
enough
for
me
and
it's
not
good
enough
for
our
community.
We
need
to
move
from
a
passive
approach
to
a
more
targeted
strategy
by
making
gender
of
fundamental
consideration
in
the
development
and
implementation
of
policy.
We
can
do
just
that.
D
D
Well,
we
don't
know
what
we
don't
know
and
we
want
to
look
at
all
of
our
policies,
but
it's
just
going
to
give
you
an
example
of
a
call
that
I
received
this
week
from
a
constituent
who
served
as
a
federal
public
servant
for
her
career
and
has
recently
retired-
and
you
know
many
seniors
are
looking
for
healthy
lifestyles,
and
so
she
has
been
working
out
in
programs
in
our
community
centers
and
her
observation.
She
said
this
to
me.
D
She
said
my
observation
is
that
women
and
men
work
out
differently,
and
it's
not
every
man,
it's
not
every
woman,
but
generally
speaking,
they
work
out
differently.
Men
prefer
to
be
in
the
weight
room,
lifting
weights
and
doing
whatever
men
do
in
the
gym,
and
women
prefer
to
be
in
programs.
It's
not
it's
not
a
universal
truth,
but
it's
largely
true,
but
our
financial
structure
is
that
we
charge
by
program.
So
this
woman
said
I'm
a
retired
federal
public
servant.
I
have
a
good
pension.
D
That's
why
it's
critical
that
council
pass
this
motion
today,
so
we
can
begin
the
important
work
necessary
to
find
out
how
and
where
we
can
do
better
in
this
city
and
I
just
wanted
to
end
with
this
thought.
This
isn't
by
no
means
a
battle
of
the
sexes.
I
recently
came
across
a
quote
that
I
think
is
appropriate
for
today,
and
that
is
this
everything
literally
everything.
D
Every
single
thing
that
you
can
do
to
make
the
world
better
for
women
also
makes
the
world
better
for
men
and
I
believe
that
to
be
true,
I
said
it
before,
and
it
bears
repeating.
As
a
city,
we
need
to
take
action,
determined,
concerted,
focused
action
to
get
the
ball
rolling
and
I
would
appreciate
the
support
of
all
my
colleagues
here
today
and
getting
that
ball
rolling.
Thank
you.
Thank.
P
It
was
very,
very
useful
and
actually
made
for
better
service,
and
it
wasn't
a
lot
of
work
to
do
so.
I
just
wanted
to
say
this
is
another
step
forward
in
making
sure
we
look
at
things
differently.
It
doesn't
mean
it's
going
to
cost
a
lot
more.
It
does
mean
you're,
probably
going
to
end
up
making
better
decisions,
so
I
thank
councillor,
Dean's
and
and
the
McKenney
for
bringing
this
forward
and
raising
the
issue,
because
it's
something
I
think
that
is
very
appropriate
at
this
time.
P
S
Very
much
I
just
felt
compelled
to
share
a
statistic
in
in
in
the
wake
of
a
very
successful
Olympic
Games
councillor
Dean's
point
about
we
all
do
better.
A
study
was
done
that
looked
at
those
countries
that
supported
female
sport
and
female
athletes.
There,
women
won
more
medals
at
the
Olympics.
Their
men
also
won
more
medals
at
the
Olympics.
Thank
you.
E
Let
me
offer
my
thanks
to
councillor
Dean's
and
McKenney
for
the
motion
they
brought
forward
that
provides
us
an
opportunity
to
and
continue
the
important
dialogue
on
inclusivity
in
the
City
of
Ottawa.
This
motion
requests
that
staff
presents
the
findings
of
the
research
and
the
outcomes
of
their
consultation
in
the
2018
2020
to
governance
report,
which
will
be
dealt
with
by
the
next
council
at
their
very
first
meeting.
E
I
think
that
much
has
been
gained
by
having
these
discussions
and
towards
that
end,
I've
tabled
a
friendly
amendment
to
include
the
city's
recruitment,
selection
and
appointment
practices
for
advisory
committees
with
the
goal
of
appointing
50%
representation
of
women
in
the
next
term
of
council.
That's
an
area
where
we
can
have
a
real
substantive
impact
because
we
have
control
over
the
appointment
process,
but
at
the
same
time
we
also
have
to
do
a
better
job
of
encouraging
women
to
apply
for
these
various
advisory
committees.

Activity
city

declare
Saturday
June,
2nd
2018
to

and

day
in

and
be
further.
It
resolved
that

approved
at

fitness
day.
E
F
Thank
you
very
much,
mr.
mayor
and
as
you
as
you
indicated,
it's
the
city's
desire
to
bid
once
again
on
the
upcoming
set
of
Association
municipalities,
of
Ontario's
annual
general
meetings
and
conferences
for
twenty.
Twenty-One
twenty
twenty
to
twenty
twenty
three
and
twenty
twenty
four,
and
there
is
a
time
requirement
in
order
to
have
the
the
bid
go
in
and
it
does
require
a
most
requested,
a
municipal
council
resolution
for
that
bid.
So
I'm
just
going
to
read
the
be
it
resolves.
The
motions
on
the
screen,
therefore
be
it
resolved.
E
E
Notice
is
a
motion
for
consideration
of
subsequent
meetings
ever
eats.
Most
young
boys
may
say
in
your
subsequent
I
have

there
are
currently

in

includes

E
M
Thank
You
mr.
mayor
there's,
actually
two
notices:
emotions
I'll
do
both
of
them
first,
one
both
of
them
are
festivals
that
are
going
on
in
Orleans
one
in
May.
It's
a
new
festival,
it's
inputs
in
fest
and
the
one
in
June
is
the
beer.
Fest
bear
craft
beer
festival
that
we
had
last
year.
I'll
just
do
the
dare
force
if
that's
okay
and
therefore
be
it,
resolved
that
the
Council
approved
a
road
closer
for
center,
involve
our
from
rese
ma
crescent
to
Prestone
Drive
from
6:00
p.m.
on
Thursday
May
10th
to
6:00
a.m.
M
on
Monday
May

New
Orleans
puts
infests
remaining

meets
the
requirements,
conditions
and
approvals
of
a
special
invention,
visor
II
team
for
the
craft
beer
festival.
You
know
it's
similar.
It's
therefore
be
it
resolved.
A
council
approved
a
road
closure
for
centrum
boulevard
from
briefs,
la
Crescent
to
press
stone,
drive
from
8:00
a.m.
on
Thursday
June
7
to

a.m.
on

10th
for
New
Orleans
craft
beer
festival
providing
that
meet
some
requirements,
condition
improve
all
special,
immense
and
visor
a
team
seat.
Thank
You
mr.
mayor.
E
N
That
is
correct,
Thank
You,
mr.
mayor,
it
is
a
long
motion
worth
of,
whereas
this,
but
the
fundamental
action
of
it
would
be
to
help
share
the
road
Ontario
in
its
effort
to
coordinate
a
municipal
response
to
get
annual
funding
for
cycling
infrastructure.
In
the
provincial
budget,
we
have
been
the
beneficiary
of
one-off
rounds
of
cycling
infrastructure
money
from
the
province.
Those
have
been
very
useful
to
help
us
build
out
our
cycling
network.
N
The
motion
would
ask
that
we
urge
the
provincial
government
to
recommend
that
the
Ministry
of
Transportation
include
an
annual
investment
in
cycling
infrastructure
in
its
capital
budget,
urged
Mayor
Jim
watched
Watson
to
write
a
letter
of
support
to
the
Minister
of
Transportation,
encourage
other
municipalities
across
Ontario
through
the
association
in
asperities
of
Ontario,
to
join
with
the
City
of
Ottawa
in
calling
on
the
province
to
act.
I'm
looking
forward
to
chatting
about
that
at
our
next
meeting.
Thank
you.
Mr.
merriday.
E
Thank
You
councillor

any
other
notice

say
about
counselor
Dean's,
please
it's
after
a.
L
L
First
is
when
can
or
will
the
opportunity
occur
for
council
to
review
the
processes
of
the
city
on
the
OC
LDC
such
that
council
could
require
that
they're
being
improved
opportunities
for
public
consultation
for
lands
that
have
been
turned
over
to
the
auto
community
lands
Development
Corporation,
and
the
second
question
is
what
steps
would
be
required
for
the
local
councillor
to
receive
notice
of
and
to
be
permitted
to
attend
board
meetings
of
the
Ottawa
Camille

surveillant
Corporation
when
matters
in
her
or
his
ward
or
under
consideration
I'm
filing
those
two
inquiries?
Thank
you.
Elsie.
N
Thank
you
very
much.
Mr.
mayor
I'll
read
the
inquiry
out
in
advance
of
the
2019
budget
in
the
new
term
of
council.
Many
residents
have
expressed
interest
in
greater
funding
for
roads
to
ensure
that
we
have
an
accurate
current
information
in
front
of
the
next
term
of
council.
We
need
to
look
at
utilizing,
live
interactive
online
maps
for
all
our
roads,
life
cycles,
conditions
resurfacing,
data
and
forecasts.
N
Some
are
two
other
interactive
maps
used
by
LA
and
the
county
of
Sonoma,
and
just
to
add
on
to
that,
I
think
we
even
had
more
discussions
in
the
last
budget
cycle.
I
think
a
lot
of
people
indicated
they
wanted
to
see
more
money
for
roads
and
clearly
I
look
forward
that
to
being
in
everybody's
platform,
this
upcoming
October
I've,
even
spoken
to
councillor
le
our
chair
of
IT
Phil's.
This
is
a
great
idea,
great
initiative,
and
we
just
want
to
be
ready
and
in
a
position
so
on
the
next
council
it
does
come
in.
N
Has
the
ability
to
see
what's
right
in
front
of
us.
We
need
these
tools
to
be
able
to
help
us
from
a
budgetary
perspective
and
figure
out
what
roads
need
the
conditions
so
I'm
moving
that
inquiry
forward,
and
we
want
to
be
prepared
so
when
the
rubber
hits
the
road
we're
ready
to
make
decisions.
Thank
you.
Okay,.
E
S
B
Not
sure,
because
you
know
political
advertising
in
terms
of
the
amount
of
money
it
brings
in
so
relatively
small.
A
lot
of
you
know.
The
future
of
the
business
model
depends
on
how
much
advertisers
are
still
willing
to.
You
know
spend
money
to
target
users
on
social
media
and
whether
they're,
you
know
they
find
the
platforms
useful,
even
if
they're
restricted
in
how
they
advertise
or
the
amount
of
data
they
have
access
to.
So
far
we
haven't
seen
a
dramatic
move
from
advertisers
to
pull
out
of
the
platform,
so.
C
S
B
Some
of
the
big
advertisers
like
Procter
&,
Gamble,
Unilever
and
pushy
and
Facebook
and
other
companies
to
you,
know
YouTube,
which
is
owned
by
Google,
to
sort
of
clean
up
some
of
the
content
that
they
allow
on
their
platforms
because
they
don't
really
want
to
be
advertising
next
to
hate
speech,
or
you
know,
pornography,
so
I
think
a
lot
of
advertisers
probably
will
see
this
as
a
good
news.
Anything
that
will
increase
the
credibility
of
a
platform.
