Mr.

senior
gentlemen
in
their
70s
and
80s,
created
solely
to
entertain
seniors

Ottawa.
The
group
believes
that
singing
and
serving
in
this
way
provides
benefits
to
our
community
by
contributing
to
the
continuing
health
and
well-being
of
seniors

good-looking

Earlier
this

we
had
an
opportunity
to
host
a
breakfast
for
the
curling
champions
and
a
number
of
members
of
council
were
there
as
we
highlighted
the
accomplishments
in
Fredericton.
A
Not
too
long
ago,
it
was
a
decisive
10-4
win
over
the
Memorial
University
Seahawks
and
Carlton's.
First
ever
national
men's
curling
title
my
congratulations
to
the
team
and
it's
an
honor
today,
if
I
can
have
the
proclamation
from
Heather
to
proclaim
today,
Carleton
University,
Ravens
men's
curling
team
day
in
the
City
of
Ottawa,
we're
very,
very
proud
of
you.
Thank
you
for
the
tremendous
work
and
I'll
just
read
the
proclamation,
whereas
Karly
University
has
over
29,000
students,
faculty
and
staff
and
over
140,000
alumni
worldwide,
who
were
part
of
the
Ravens
community
and
share
this
success.

For
everybody,
that's
here
to
congratulate
us
thanks
for
the
formation-
that's
really
nice,
it's
nice
to
get
recognition
from
the
city
for
a
great
accomplishment,
I'd
like
to
thank
all
these
guys
that
helped
us
get
there.
Our
coach,
Tom,
Sinclair
and
all
of
our
players
as
well,
and
thanks
for
everyone
to
be
here.
A
So
they
we're
swish
it
a
little
bit
around
because
they
have
to
go
a
couple
of
a
gentlemen
have
exams.
So
we
won't
be
offended
if
you
sneak
out
it's
now,
my
honor
to
present
the
mayor
city
builder
award
to
sister
lorina
Morris
if
she
would
come
forward
at
this
point,
welcome
sister,
Loreena
and
I
know
you
have
family
and
friends
with
you
here
and
it's
great
to
see.
D
A
Center
and
the
neighborhood
who
are
here
today,
the
center
began
just
as
just
three
caring
nuns
from
the
Sacred
Heart
of
Jesus,
who
began
handing
out
food
and
clothes
to
people
in
need
in
the
neighborhood.
It
was
1979
when
sisters,
Thelma,
Marion,
Medellin,
Raja
and
lorina
Morris
opened
their
hearts
in
their
home
to
the
community.
Within
a
couple
of
years
they
were
running
a
food
bank
and
a
hamper
program
and
also
teaching
cooking
classes.
The
sisters
added
a
drop-in
center
and
created
classrooms
to
teach
English
to
an
influx
of
refugees
from
Vietnam
and
Cambodia.
A
They
hired
a
nurtured,
capable
staff.
They
raised
awareness
of
needs
in
the
community
and
they
raised
funds
for
programs
and
activities
for
the
neighborhood
sister
Lorena
became
the
executive
director
of
the
center
in
1998
and
maintained
the
spirit
of
operations,
a
place
of
security,
respect,
inclusion
and
support.
She
continued
to
be
a
strong
figure
and
mentor
in
the
community
and
thrive
with
each
opportunity.
She
had
to
help
others.
Sister
Lorena
provided
people
with
the
support
and
encouragement
that
allowed
them
to
find
work,
raise
families
and
build
productive
lives
in
the
community.
A
A
Programmer
Caesar,
lorina
will
say
nombres
completely
similar
community
at
root
level.
I'd
like
to
take
this
opportunity,
sister
Lorena,
to
thank
you
very,
very
much
for
the
great
work.
I
I
see
it
anytime,
I'm
in
Caldwell
you're,
just
such
a
beacon
of
hope
and
positive
energy
and
you've
done
so
much,
and
this
is
the
least
we
can
do
to
say.
Thank
you
for
a
job
very,
very
well
done.
Congratulations!.
G
G
G
Watson
said
by
sister
Thelma,
was
positive
answer
to
the
needs
of
that
day,
but
for
today
we
need
my
wish
for
today
is
that
these
services
continue
and
help
the
local
people
and
dry,
and
it
drives
me
to
say
that
this
special
day
is
a
God
God
blessing
one,
because
I
really
think
that
if
we
follow
the
motto
that
we
have
for
the
people
and
with
the
people,
our
world
will
proceed
and
be
much
better.
Thank
you
for
this
amazing
time
and
I
approve
here.

Counselor

declare
a
potential
deemed
indirect
visionary
interest
on
the
following
report:
item
three
on
City
Council:
eight
agenda
11.
Even
though
I'm
a
non-voting
member
of
the
board
2009
budgets
and
special
levies
for
business
improvement
areas
and

On
the

carried
on
the
report,
as
amended,
carry
item
number
four
interdepartmental
task
force
and
affordable
housing
near
transit
stations,
group,
212,
I
mix.
All
a
large
mob.
Pledis
tests
show
the
transport
I'll
come
in
counselor
flurry.
Is
it
a
long
issue
or
can
we
go
through
it's
two
seconds?
Okay,
go.
H
Ahead,
miss
mr.
Mehra
I
want
to
applaud
the
the
work
of
the
the
working
group
I,
think
it's
very
important
to
for
council
to
have
that
strategic
investment
and
strategic
discussion
relating
to
the
opportunities
that
we
have
along
future
developments
of
transit
stations
and
the
lands
that
we
own
so
I
want
to
applaud.
H
The
work
I
also
want
to
to
share
how
important
it
is
to
do
a
non
to
leverage
our
non-for-profit
housing
providers,
but
also
to
look
to
our
private
investors
in
development
and
seeing
how
we
can
maximize
mixed
income
communities,
employment
nodes
near
our
future
transit
station.
So
I
really
think
that
having
this
exercise
is
useful
and
now
it's
really
going
into
how
do
we
implement
and
how
do
we
structure
these
lands
to
maximize
its
value,
maximize
the
affordable
opportunity
from
a
non-for-profit
sector
and
also
from
a
private
sector
investment?
A
That
should
we
go
on
to
consent,
or
are
you
okay
with
a
small
item
here?
Okay,
go
ahead,
it's.
I
Very
quickly,
I
just
also
want
to
applaud
staff
for
what
you've
come
back
with.
I.
Think
that
the
you
know
the
speed
in
which
you've
returned
to
us
with
the
the
amount
of
work
that
went
into
this
to
understand.
The
opportunities
for
for
development
for
affordable
housing
in
and
around
our
transit
stations
is
commendable.

councillor

don't
introduced
that
now.
Please,
yes,.
C
Thank
you,
mr.
mayor,
and
this
is
subsequent
to
the
meeting
that
we
had
the
last
planning
committee
where
we
had
tabled
the
emotion,
but
we
knew
it
needed
extra
information,
and
so
this
provides
the
extra
information
and
we
did
not
vote
on
it
at
committee
and
I've
had
conversations
with
councilor
Brockington
since
that
as
well.
So
the
key
part
of
it
is
to
do
with
a
southbound
right
turn.
Lane
extension
on
Riverside
Drive
between
the
new
signalized
entrance
and
Hunt
Club
Road
be
considered
as
a
priority
project
to
be
funded
from
the
development
charge
account.
C
So
that's
the
differences
that
will
be
we're
making
sure
that
it
will
be
funded
from
the
development
charge
account,
as
this
is
a
key
intersection
in
our
network,
a
modifications
list
that
is
failing,
and
this
will
improve
it.
So
out
of
that
entire
project,
we
agree
that
it
is
to
be
funded.
Our
development
charges.
This.
A
Was
shared
by
Ken
with
councilor
brockington?
Is
this
a
longer
discussion?
Can
we
go
on
okay?
So
we'll
come
back
to
this
item?
Still
the
motion
that
the
amendment
has
been
tabled
and
we'll
come
back
to
that
item
at
the
end.
Next
is
zoning

five,

Fernbank

we'll

Please

Go

This.
C
Has
to
do
with
document
to
where
it's
missing
a
provision
in
the
details
under

two
so
therefore
be
it
resolved
that
council
add
an
additional

Instead,

I've

right

Dobis

I
D
H
H
I
want
to
go
back
to
our
colleagues.
It
was
no
longer
around
the
table,
the
councillor
Nussbaum
last
year.
It
brought
some
attention
to
the
parking
lot
and
vacant
land
ratio
and
I
just
want
to
hear
from
our
finance
team
relating
to
what
is
legislated
because
I'm
confused
last
year,
we
got
caught
up
on
the
goals
of
council,
but
I
really
want
to.
H
Can
you
reassure
us
what
is
legislated
in
terms
of
the
percentage
and
why
we
proposing
like
I'm,
not
seeing
an
increase
in
the
percentage
and
I
think
there's
clear
direction
as
to
the
goals
of
council,
we
had
removed
the
vacancy
rebate
and
and
I'm
not
understanding.
Why
we're
not
increasing
that
ratio
more
significantly,
but
maybe
you
can
just
give
us
the
the
legislative
context
there
I.
K
You
what's
legislated
through:
legislation
of
regulation
related
to
vacant
lands
and
parking.
Lots
is
a
requirement
for
municipalities
to
apply
a
30%
reduction
to
that
class.
So,
regardless
of
what
we
do
with
that,
if
we
were
to
collapse
it
and
move
it
into
the
overall
broad
commercial
class,
that
discount
must
be
applied
to
those
properties.
H
K
Correct
so,
even
if
they
moved
into
the
commercial
broad
class,
what
we
would
see
there,
we
actually
did
a
very
deep
dive
in
terms
of
preparing
our
tax
policy
report.
This
year
is,
if
those
properties
moved
into
that
class,
the
overall
broad
commercial
class
ratio
would
drop,
which
would
benefit
the
large
parking
lots
that
are
actually
attached
to
commercial
buildings,
which
is
not
the
intent
in
terms
of
the
direction
that
we
were
given
by
Council
last
year.
K
In
terms
of
the
review
that
we
were
to
do
and
what
would
happen
to
the
rest
of
the
folks
who
sit
in
that
stand-alone,
subclass
for
vacant
land,
parking
lots
and
particularly
parking
lots.
There
are
a
number
of
properties
there.
There's
approximately
1,300
and
a
very
large
majority
of
those
are
small
business
condo
owners
who
own
parking
spots
for
their
properties.
They
would
see
a
47%
increase
in
their
taxes
if
we
move
them
into
the
commercial,
broad
class
and.
H
Just
finally,
so
if
we
have,
we
signified
this
issue
to
the
province
in
the
past.
Could
you
remind
if
council
ID,
as
signified,
that
gap
to
council,
because
to
me
it
it's
odd
that
we
don't
have
the
specific
I
understand
the
historical
context,
but
for
us?
Why
wouldn't
we
why?
When
we
decide
on
that
policy
piece
so.
K
H
Mayor
on
that
basis,
I
wonder
if
that's
something
that
we
can
look
at
asking
the
province
specifically
to
gain
that
authority,
because
you
know
I
can
understand
why
why,
in
the
past,
there
might
have
been
this,
but
I
really
think
that
we
there's
tons
of
opportunity,
especially
with
we
were
having
that
conversation
relating
to
LRT
relating
to
some
of
the
development.
We
all
want
to
see
some
of
those
vacant
lines
and
parking
lots
redeveloped.
So
is
that
something
that
we
can
ask
of
you
to
signify
to
the
province
or
our
Treasury?
Well,.
A
I
Thank
You
mr.
mayor,
my
question
is
along
the
same
lines
as
as
councillor
flurry,
so
we've
had
the
discussion
I.
You
know
and
I
understand
that
you
know
with
the
parking,
lots
and
vacant
land
to
reduce
that
would
reduce
the
overall
commercial
broad
class
and
of
those
1,300
Lots.
I.
Think
that
you
told
me
there
were
29
that
were
commercial
paid
parking
is
that's
correct,
that's
the
correct
number
and
do
you
know
of
those
which
ones
are
large
lots
like
I'm?
I
Not
talking
about
you
know
an
office
building
with
four
or
five
spots,
but
say
20,
plus
that
we
see
in
the
downtown
that
have
been
there
for
four
decades,
they're,
not
being
they're
not
being
developed.
They
make
far
too
much
money.
They
make
more
money
sitting
there
as
parking
lots.
We
actually
are
seeing
them
added.
We
had
one
added
on
Louisa
not
long
ago,
that
is
actually
benefiting
Airbnb
in
the
in
the
downtown.
I
A
A
I
L
Thank
you,
your
worship
and
good
morning
to
everyone.
Indeed,
it's
a
20-acre
piece
of
land
at
the
corner
of
Riverside
and
Hunt
Club,
and
we
had
a
thorough
discussion
of
this
application
at
the
Planning
Committee.
Last
week
it's
been
a
parcel
of
land.
That's
been
advertised
for
development.
For
a
couple
of
decades,
there's
been
a
sign.
L
That's
been
up
so
long,
it's
been
faded
at
hum
club,
but
the
community
has
been
aware
that
there
were
ultimately
plans
to
build
something
here
and
really
the
focus
of
my
community's
concern
isn't
exclusively
on
what
is
to
be
developed.
Yes,
I
won't,
say,
there's
unanimous
agreement
to
what's
being
proposed,
but
really
the
focus
and
attention
with
this
application
has
been
on
the
transportation
network.
The
significant
challenges
that
exist
now
and
will
be
compounded
when
this
development
is
approved.
We
heard-
and
it
was
confirmed
that
the
intersection
Hunt
Club
Riverside
is
an
f-minus.
L
It
is
sort
of
the
worst
grading
that
an
intersection
can
have
it
shuttles,
a
significant
volume
of
traffic
through
it
every
day,
and
we
see
particularly
on
Hunt,
Club
and
Riverside
at
rush
hours.
The
gridlock
that
exists
not
90
minutes
not
two
hours
but
several
hours
a
day,
which
is
make
mainly
people
going
to
the
west
and
to
the
south
of
Hunt
Club.
So,
like
I
said,
the
concerns
in
my
community
have
basically
been
on
the
transportation
network.
So
I
have
a
few
questions
for
staff.
L
The
official
plan
section
4.3
states
that
the
city,
when
reviewing
development
applications,
will
assess
the
adequacy
of
the
transportation
network
to
meet
the
needs
of
the
proposed
development.
Individual
building
sites,
subdivisions
and
plans
for
large
areas
must
be
easy
to
get
to
travel
through
on
foot
by
bicycle
and
transit
and
by
automobile.
So,
given
that
the
intersection
is
an
f-minus
and
we
have
gridlock
here,
we've
had
gridlock
for
some
time
and
there's
no
short-term
solutions
to
deal
with
capacity.
Can
staff
just
describe
how
they
assess
the
transportation
network
and
challenges
when
reviewing
a
planning
application.
M
Mr.
mayor
staff,
as
the
councillor
alluded
to
there
is
a
planning
framework
in
place
in
terms
of
the
Official,
Plan
and
transportation
master
plan,
some
of
the
infrastructure
projects
within
that
time
horizon
of
twenty
thirty
one
have
yet
to
be
implemented.
So
certainly
there
will
be
improvements
in
terms
of
stage
two
LRT
Airport,
Parkway,
widening
and
others.
In
terms
of
reviewing
the
development
application,
the
application
is
assessed
on
safe,
egress
and
ingress
to
the
site.
Certainly
that's
the
case
here.
There'll
be
a
new
signalized,
controlled
intersection
to
service
the
future
development.
M
L
M
Mr.
mayor
there
there
will
certainly
be
challenges
in
terms
of
peak
our
movements
at
this
intersection
of
faces.
However,
the
there
will
be
safe
opportunities
to
access
and
egress
the
site
through
the
controlled
intersection.
It's
also
important
to
remember
that
the
the
current
zoning
amendment
that's
before
council
is
actually
creating
an
opportunity
for
a
mix
of
uses
and
a
significant
reduction
in
potential
trips.
Then
the
current
as
of
right
zoning
grants,
but.
L
The
reality
is,
there's
nothing
built
there
now
and
so
whatever
gets
built
will
be
an
increase.
So
when
we
compare
it
to
what
could
happen
with
the
current
zoning,
I,
don't
think
that's
a
fair
comparison,
because
what
we
have
now
is
gridlock
and
whatever
will
get
built,
will
only
contribute
to
that.
There's
been
some
flip-flopping
on
who
pays
for
infrastructure
and
that's
sort
of
the
genesis
behind
the
motion
that
we
have
here
today.
N
Mr.
mayor
I'll
begin
the
answer:
I
missed
and
may
I
add
to
it.
The
Planning
Act
and
the
development
charges
act,
set
the
policy,
so
the
Planning
Act
allows
us
to
attribute
costs
directly
attributable
to
the
development
itself
to
the
developer
through
approvals
under
the
Planning
Act.
The
development
charges.
Act,
however,
allows
enables
the
city
to
raise
money
through
development
charges
for
overall
Network
level
improvements.
J
L
Okay,
there
are,
of
course,
capacity
and
safety
issues
with
this
and
I'm,
certainly
looking
going
forward.
How
we
can
make
improvements
here,
because
the
status
quo
is
not
acceptable
to
me.
There's
a
pilot
project,
the
adaptive
traffic
control
project,
that's
I
believe
on
Ennis
Road
that
staff
are
looking
at
that
could
be
expanded
to
the
Hunt
Club
Riverside
intersection.
Could
staff
just
educate
council
what
this
pilot
is
and
whether
this
could
be
replicated
at
this
intersection.
F
Yes,
mr.
mayor,
the
councillor
has
spoken
to
us
and
we
certainly
agree
with
his
concerns
on
this
intersection.
So
the
the
AI
traffic
flow
management
system
is,
it
uses
artificial
intelligence
and
loops
detectors
to
adjust
signal
timing
on
the
fly
so
I've
spoken
to
mr.
Landry
and
with
respect
to
this
intersection,
which
many
of
us
know
is,
is
challenged
in
many
many
ways.
We
will
do
some
preliminary
work
in
2019
and
then
fully
implanted
in
2020.
That
should
help
in
that
regard,
and
we
have
some
other
suggestions.
L
With
respect
to
safety,
I
mean
it's
well
documented,
the
number
of
collisions
that
occur
at
this
intersection.
Of
course,
the
volume
significantly
contributes
to
this,
but
pedestrians
don't
feel
safe
crossing
here.
Were
you
know
the
Quintero
River?
What
community
is
pretty
close
to
the
TNT
mall
people
should
be
walking.
It's
not
safe
to
do
so,
certainly
not
safe
to
ride
ones.
Bike.
Our
other
specific
safety
improvement
staff
can
look
at
either
in-house
or
through
outside
consultants.
About
this
intersection,
are
you
willing
to
make
that
commitment?
L
F
Councilor
I
am
and
I
think
we'll
get
we'll
get
innovative
if
you
want
to
engage
the
community
also
in
a
preliminary
discussion,
we'll
bring
in
an
external
traffic
safety
consultant-
and
maybe
we
just
do
some
focus
group
or
some
listening
into
the
community
concerns,
and
we
can
look
for
some
short,
medium
and
longer-term
fixes.
Thank.
L
You
for
that,
so
mr.
mayor
I
and
colleagues
I
have
significant
concerns
with
this,
not
necessarily
the
planning
application
per
se,
but
with
respect
to
how
we
continue
to
improve
planning
applications
and
I,
don't
feel
the
transportation
network
keeps
pace.
We
have
d
CS
for
a
reason
they
are
supposed
to
pay
for
the
expanded
demands
that
the
city
needs
through
the
infrastructure.
L
I've
not
solely
focused
my
comments
to
date
on
roads,
although
the
road
network
has
not
kept
pace
as
we
expand,
particularly
to
the
south,
and
that's
why
I
think
we
need
to
take
a
stand
so
I'm
not
particularly
focused
on
one
particular
development.
We
recently
had
discussions
in
this
room
about
a
Claridge
proposal,
further
east
on
hum
club
by
the
airport
parkway,
where
there
was
really
no
adequate
way
in
my
way
to
get
in
there
and
get
out
and
the
gridlock
and
again
the
developer
said
not
my
problem.
L
E
It's
a
it's
a
bottleneck
at
the
best
of
times
and
for
those
of
you
who
haven't
traveled
through
this
intersection.
Let
me
just
paint
you
a
picture:
we're
talking
about
two
lanes
of
traffic
heading
north
in
the
morning
kilometres
long
right
back
to
River
Road
on
to
Lyme
Bank
in
the
heading
south
in
the
evening.
Sorry
heading
north
in
the
morning
heading
south.
In
the
evening,
it's
the
same
thing
kilometres
long.
It's
non-stop
traffic,
east-west
on
Hunt
Club.
My
concern
is
it's
one.
E
This
is
one
of
three
arteries
into
the
downtown,
the
people
in
Riverside,
south
and
south
of
me,
councillor
de
Rosas
ward,
councillor,
Moffitt's
Ward
use
every
day
and
we
use
it
we're
forced
to
use
it
because
we
do
not
have
transit.
There
are
no
dedicated
bus
lanes
on
any
of
the
north-south
arterioles
going
into
the
city,
so
we
are
forced
to
take
cars
and
vehicles.
E
I,
think
it's
wonderful
that
we
can't
wait
for
the
LRT
to
come,
and,
yes,
we
will
have
the
Green
burrow
station,
where
some
of
the
people
will
go,
but
quite
frankly,
the
volume
of
traffic
going
through
that
intersection
will
not
be
diminished
significantly.
So
I
am
not
opposed
to
the
Taggart
development.
What
I
am
opposed
to,
though,
is
any
development
at
this
time
in
this
section
of
the
city.
This
intersection
cannot
take
it
when
people
were
told
that
there
was
a
probability
of
a
development
going
in
on
that
corner.
They
were
just
gobsmacked.
E
They
it's
an
hour
going
in
in
the
morning
during
traffic
during
winter,
whether
it's
an
hour
and
a
half,
and
it's
only
going
to
get
worse
because
we
continue
to
grow
in
the
south
end.
So
I
I
would
like
to
know
at
what
point
do
we,
as
a
city
start
taking
the
residents
concerns
more
seriously?
We
need
an
overarching
transportation
plan
that
puts
rapid
buses
on
these
routes,
so
we
can
decrease
the
volume
of
traffic
by
approving
this
application.
E
We're
only
going
to
make
the
problem
worse
so
this
intersection
I,
cannot
support
this
development
because
we
don't
need
it
at
this
time.
What
is
needed
for
us
as
a
council
is
to
fulfill
our
obligations
and
allocate
funds
to
improve
the
Hunt
Club
Riverside
intersection
to
address
the
current,
the
current
and
the
future
volume
of
traffic
before
any
other
development
approvals.
E
C
Thank
you
very
much.
My
question
is
about
transit
because
this
doesn't
seem.
This
is
on
a
transit
route,
but
it
there's
definitely
going
to
be
more
cars
and
I'm
wondering
how
are
we
going
to
deal
with
it
in
terms
of
bringing
in
even
more
transit
getting
more
people
on
buses
so
that
we
don't
have
these
gridlock
problems
I
feel
concerned
about
when
we
keep
talking
about
the
traffic?
What
are
we
doing
to
go
against
that?
To
increase
people
using
transit
for
such
a
big
development.
N
So
mr.
Merritt
I
think
it's
important
to
recognize.
We
have
this
same
problem
in
every
major
arterial
road
heading
into
the
city,
whether
it's
Bronson
Innes
Carling
Prince
of
Wales
Woodruff,
Green
Bank.
This
exists
and
I
urge
council
to
understand
the
bigger
picture
that
we're
looking
at
at
the
network
connectivity
and
how
things
actually
work
on
a
network
level.
The
network
is
a
very
dynamic
thing
and
we
have
new
technology.
Perhaps
that
will
help
us
use
our
networks
more
effectively
and
that's
what
mr.
Mahoney
talked
about
as
it
relates
to
councils
previous
decisions.
N
In
the
last
two
official
plans
and
transportation
master
plan
plans,
Council
has
prioritized
adding
new
capacity
to
the
downtown
through
public
transit.
You
just
voted
to
start
construction
of
the
Trillium
Line
to
the
south,
which
will
be
the
biggest
single
reliever
of
congestion
to
the
south
in
the
history
of
the
city,
because
those
arteries
that
have
been
built
so
far
of
lane
widening
haven't
accomplished
that
level
of
congestion
relief
and
there
are
other
parts
of
the
city
that
don't
even
have
Lane
widening
Xin
plans
at
this
stage
of
the
game.
N
So
council
has
put
its
effort
in
priority
for
financial
reasons,
for
sustained
environmental
sustainability
reasons
and
for
Smart
Growth
reasons
on
transportation
through
public
transit
and
council
has
made
that
what
we
have
right
now
has
a
bit
of
a
lag
that
we
will
have
time
before
that
is
actually
built,
but
ground
is
going
to
break
shortly
on
that.
So
again,
you
cannot
make
decisions
like
this
councillor.
You
can
make
any
decision
you
wish,
but
I
urge
you
not
to
make
decisions.
N
That
would
be
the
same
problem
as
whether
you
go
east,
west
or
south
in
this
city.
To
think
that
stalling
urban
growth
intensification
would
actually
alleviate
the
problem,
because
all
you
do
is
move
that
problem
to
another
location
on
the
city,
further
out,
adding
more
congestion
traffic
to
the
exact
same
corridors
further
out,
causing
more
vehicle
kilometers
to
be
traveled
throughout
the
whole
city,
which
is
a
negative
environmental
and
financial
consequence.
N
This
mr.
Scrimgeour
isn't
here,
but
the
single
biggest
transportation
improvement
is
in
this
direction
is
the
creation
of
the
Trillium
Line
and
then
the
restringing
of
the
bus
system
in
and
around
the
entire
Trillium
Line
at
the
closer
to
the
time
of
construction,
will
do
that
plus
the
the
the
annual
adjustments
of
public
OC
Transpo
makes
the
transit
service
well.
F
F
The
chicken
and
egg
discussion
about
do
to
add
the
routes
once
the
ridership
is
there.
Do
you
entice
the
riders
before
that?
We've
done
some
innovative
things
in
her
ward.
In
some
other
areas,
we
continually
talk
to
people
and
developers
about
on
high
density
developments,
how
they
can
do
you
pass
programs
to
entice
people
to
do
that?
We've
had
condo
developers
willingly
on
their
own,
give
free
presto
passes
for
a
year
and
so
forth.
F
We
need,
we
will
need
the
ridership
to
justify
routes,
debt
and
when
I
hear
dedicated
routes,
and
things
like
that,
you
need
a
lot
of
ridership
to
do
that,
but
if
the
ridership
is
there
we'll
certainly
adjust
accordingly
and
the
north/south
movement
in
your
transportation
master
plan
official
plan
is
the
the
focus
on
getting
that
capacity.
There's
no
dispute
with
staff
that
the
intersection
is
active
cassadee.
It's
it's
full
and
you
know
you
could
add,
as
many
lanes
as
you
want.
You'll
continue
to
attract
the
traffic.
F
N
So
counselor
in
every
development
review
process,
one
of
the
OSE
transpose
circulated
on
all
applications
and
then
look
for
every
opportunity,
whether
it
be
lay
by
areas
certain
construction
configurations
to
make
sure
that
we're
not
impeding
bus
service
and
they
also
build
up
their
in
data
inventory
of
the
new
populations
coming
in
to
do
their
route
service
planning
as
they
go
so
they're
part
of
the
development
review
process.
And
we
did
the
two
departments
work
very
closely
together
on
that.
Okay,.
C
Because
I'm
in
the
written
statement,
all
I
saw,
was
talking
about
a
multi-use
path
and
that's
great
and
and
that
but
I
didn't
see
any
mention
of
transit
in
terms
of
you
know
that
we're
working
towards
possible
route
changes
or
increases
like
something
that
gave
me
an
indication
that
you
you
spoke
to
developer
and
that
that
was
part
of
the
plan,
because
all
I'm
hearing
about
is
more
traffic
lanes.
Mr.
J
Mayor,
if
I
could
just
add
that
a
lot
of
that
comes
at
the
site
plan
conversations
when
when
the
application
becomes
more
of
a
reality
right
now
we're
at
the
zoning
stage,
so
I
think
we,
you
know,
as
mr.
Willis
points
out,
those
conversations
will
take
place,
but
certainly
it'll
get
a
little
bit
more
serious
about
what's
required
when
we
get
to
the
site
plan.
Okay,.
C
N
C
A
Thanks,
counselor
and
I
think
it's
important
what
mr.
Willis
said
in
terms
of
the
investment
in
the
Trillium
line
this.
This
is
one
of
the
few
times,
if
the
only
time
that
I
can
think
of
where
we've
actually
are
putting
in
the
capacity
for
transit
before
the
whole
area
is
built
out,
and
we
end
up,
you
know
with
a
situation
where
it
becomes
much
more
convenient
for
people
to
take
the
o
train
trillium
line
to
come
downtown,
and
that
is
going
to
have
a
significant
positive
impact.
A
O
Very
much
mayor,
I
think
this
is
I,
appreciate
the
discussion
by
mr.
Willis
and
mr.
Mahoney
I
think
you've
nailed
it
right.
It
is
standards
are
a
chicken-and-egg
piece
and
we
are
having
these
problems
all
over.
The
city.
What's
clear
is
is
more
sort
of
car-centric
planning?
It's
not
gonna
solve
our
problems
anywhere.
That's
not
gonna
fix
what
what's
going
on
in
the
city,
and
you
know
where
I
am
Riverside
Drive
feeds
to
Bronson
feeds
to
Bank
main
making
this
intersection
busier.
O
It's
gonna
have
effects
on
AltaVista
capital,
Ward,
Somerset,
Ward's,
there's
gonna
be
an
effect
there.
We
often
talk
about
you,
know
some
narrowing
of
roads
and
in
capital
Ward
and
how
that
may
affect
sort
of
suburban
drivers.
I
think
the
the
opposite
is
the
case
here,
and
it's
important
that
we
we
recognize
that
I
think
if
there's
any
time
to
start
thinking
about
development,
oriented
trends,
we
talked
a
lot
about.
Transit
oriented
development
is
any
time
to
start
thinking
about
it's
it's
now
granted
the
the
LRT
will
will
help
with
this,
but
I.
O
Don't
think
that
that's
gonna
really
solve
the
problem
of
that
intersection,
and
so
I
guess
my
question
is:
do
we?
Is
there
a
comprehensive
sort
of
transit
plan
for
that
suburban
area
of
the
cities?
Is
there
something
more
that
we're
doing
besides
that
that
LRT
piece,
besides
the
2031,
understand
widening
of
a
road
for
transit
or
only
lane
other
other
plans
there
to
increase
capacity
at
all
with
with
with
more
transit
capacity?
There.
F
We
have
our
normal
operational
reviews
that
we
do
and
the
the
transportation
master
plan
outlines
where
your
investments
on
transit
in
general,
both
bus
and
rail
I,
know
we
talk
about
rail
all
over
the
place,
but
you've
made
a
lot
of
investments,
this
term
and
previous
term
of
council
on
on
bus
lanes
and
cue
signals
and
so
forth,
and
we
will
continue
to
do
that
because
the
funding
exists.
There's
BRT
studies
that
were
approved
and
BRT
preliminary
engineering
works
that
are
approved
and
so
forth.
So
there
are
your
short
answer.
F
O
O
This
particular
one
and
so
I
want
to
continue
having
that
conversation
with
folks
and
see
if
we
can't
because
I
know
you
know,
LRT
to
some
extent
will
help
some
areas
of
the
city,
but
other
areas
are
being
left
out
from
that
as
well.
We
need
to
think
about
those
areas
that
kind
of
cut
through
where
stage
1
and
stage
2
are
proposed
to
go,
and
obviously
the
bus
transit
service
that
we've
got
connecting
those
areas,
we're
hope
to
seeing
improvement
once
this
starts.
O
P
P
I
know
there
are
future
plans
for
the
transportation
network,
transit
and
roads,
but
I
think
residents
recognize
as
well
as
we
all
do
in
the
room
that
there
is
it's
that
the
timeline
is
out
of
sync
right
now
and
at
some
point
I
think
we
are
gonna
have
to
say
no
or
at
least
not
yet.
In
fact,
we
have
I
remember
several
years
back
in
councilor
Hubli
award
in
Bridal
wood
development
was
put
on
hold
because
the
necessary
transportation
infrastructure
was
not
in
place
yet,
and
we
defended
that
at
the
OMB
I.
P
So
we're
close
to
that
point
and
I
don't
think
this
particular
development
of
discussion
is
one
where
we
need
to
say
no
or
hold
now,
but
I
think
it
does.
How
let
highlight
how
important
it
is
in
this
term
of
council
that
we
get
things
like
the
official
player
and
the
transportation
master
plan.
The
development
charge
is
right,
so
we
can
get
back
in
phase
in
terms
of
our
planning
and
transportation
planning,
Thank
You.
Mr.
mayor
good
points,
thank
you.
Q
M
It
depends
on
on
what
proceeds
to
the
site
plan
level,
but
there
could
be
a
senior's
project.
There
could
be
residential
we're
not
talking
about
a
significant
number
of
residential
units
at
this
point,
although
the
zoning
would
permit
that,
so
it
really
depends
on
the
application
that
will
come
forward,
as
I
mentioned
earlier
right
now,
based
on
their
current
concept.
It's
about
25%
of
the
previous
proposal
for
office
retail
complex
from
about
2001,
so
significantly
less.
Okay,.
Q
Well,
thank
you
very
much.
Mr.
mayor
I
have
no
problem
with
the
discussion
around
ensuring
that
rose
and
transit
and
other
infrastructure
keeps
pace
with
development.
What
I
guess
I'm
a
little
bit
concerned
about
is
the
inconsistency
in
that
approach.
On
the
28th
of
February
at
planning
committee
committee,
approved
I,
believe
you
Hannam
ously,
something
like
2,000
new
building
units
in
Riverside
south.
It
was
then
approved
unanimously,
I
think
at
council,
two
weeks
later,
I'm
looking
up
the
committee
reports
and
the
councillors
comments
are
I'm
aware
of
the
proposal
not
I'm
against
the
proposal.
Q
Not
the
sky's
gonna
fall
if
we
allow
2,000
building
units
to
be
built
in
Riverside
South
and
it's
going
to
cause
traffic
nightmares,
etc.
It's
I'm
aware
of
it
so
I
would
encourage
everyone
to
support
this.
It's
a
lot
closer
to
the
city
than
Riverside
South.
Is
this
a
lot
closer
to
existing
transit
I
had
the
Riverside
south
is,
and
it's
a
lot
more
dense
than
the
2000
some
odd
single-family
home
building
units
proposed
in
Riverside
south
and
approved
unanimously
by
council
a
month
ago.
Thank
you.
Thank.
R
Thank
You
mr.
mayor
well
having
been
a
frequent
user
of
that
intersection
for
the
theft
past
15
years.
I
can
certainly
attest
to
the
point
that
councilor
brockington
has
been
making
about
peak
hour,
congestion
at
that
intersection
and
backups,
certainly
Walkley
Road
on
a
daily
basis.
So
when
it
gets
a
grade
of
F
as
an
intersection.
R
One
can
certainly
understand
why,
especially
given
that,
when
you
really
consider
the
geography
of
the
area,
there
is
a
big
honkin
Airport
that
you
have
to
get
around
and
there's
also
a
river
and
a
bridge,
and
so
when
you
consider
north-south
routes
on
the
east
side
of
the
Rideau
River.
Because
of
that
Airport,
there
are
very
few
north-south
routes.
And
you
know
if
we
all
remember
back
to
the
early
2000s.
R
It
was
the
north-south
LRT
electrified
light
Rapid,
Transit
29
kilometres
of
track
from
bear
Haven
to
Ottawa
you
that
was
supposed
to
be
built
and
up
and
running
and
by
the
way
under
a
billion
dollars.
And
that
didn't
happen,
and
that
was
the
kind
of
light
Rapid
Transit
System
that
we
needed
to
serve
that
the
fastest
growing
urban
areas
in
the
city
of
Ottawa,
and
that
was
canceled.
That
didn't
happen,
and
now
you
know,
I
hear
the
stock
that
is
being
put
in
the
Trillium
line,
and
certainly
it's
an
improvement.
R
R
Minutes
service,
so
it's
it's
not
what
was
originally
intended
in
terms
of
trying
to
get
people
out
of
the
curse
and
on
to
public
transit,
because,
frankly,
it
has
to
be
faster
and
more
convenient
and
everything
else
for
people
to
use
it
and
I'm
concerned
about
the
level
of
service
with
not
having
that
twin
track,
the
entire
way
from
the
south
and
what
impact
that's
actually
going
to
have
have
happened.
The
best
argument
that
I've
heard
for
proving
this
development
is
that
the
right
the
zoning
could
make
it
worse.
R
Just
think
that
there
has
to
be
better
planning
than
this
before
we
approve
an
application
like
that,
and
I
really
think
the
daily
users
of
that
intersection.
The
60,000
car
movements
through
there
are
going
to
be
seeing
like
what
were
they
thinking
approving
that
and
then
the
one
thing
I'm
really
concerned
about.
Is
this
motion,
because
I
heard
what
you
said
mr.
R
Willis,
but
I
also
had
some
staff
in
my
office
yesterday
to
talk
about
this
and
I
asked
them
if
it
was
normal
traditional
to
actually
have
a
motion
like
this
at
zoning
or
if
this
would
not
actually
be
something
that
would
be
negotiated
and
the
staff
that
have
an
opportunity
to
talk.
How
much
of
that
is
the
overall
network
approvement?
R
N
Mr.
mayor,
first
of
all
the
counselors
right-
normally,
we
would
deal
this
with
this
at
site
planned,
but
we've
tried
to
listen
to
the
concerns
that
were
raised
through
the
through
committee
through
the
community
raised
on
what
would
be
the
transportation
improvements
in
this
area
so
and
when
we
wouldn't
normally
identify
that
lane
improvement
till
site
plan.
N
But
we
did
it
at
zoning
because
of
the
concerns
raised
by
a
councillor
brockington,
who
has
some
very
legitimate
concerns
about
what
this
does
so
now
that
we've
identified
that
we
need
this
earlier
than
we
normally
what
we
have
to
get
in
that
discussion
of
how
we
pay
for
it,
which
is
a
discussion
we
would
normally
do
at
site
plan,
so
we
you're
quite
right.
We
normally
would
do
with
that
then,
but
because
we
net,
we
did
this
to
address
the
concerns.
Now
we're
having
the
same
conversation,
we
would
have
them
now
and
it.
R
N
Mr.
Mehra's,
as
Miss
Sneden
explained,
they
are
making
contributions.
They
are
required
to
make
contributions
to
a
number
of
elements,
including
the
intersection
lights,
all
of
the
reconfiguration
of
that
the
sidewalks,
the
light,
the
improvement
for
that
left
or
the
right
turn
lane
is
not
to
alleviate
things
created
by
their
development.
It's
to
ameliorate
the
broader
network
problems
that
exist
today.
They
could
make
the
case
that
their
development
does
not
create
the
need
for
that.
N
Lane
we've
asked
for
it
because,
while
they're
constructing
and
digging
up
that
entire
area,
we
can
get
that
improvement
now,
rather
than
waiting
til.
We
have
money
in
our
own
capital
budgets
down
the
road
to
do
something
like
this,
so
where
it's
opportunistic
for
us
to
get
them
to
do
that
right
now,
and
because
it's
not
attributable
to
their
development
in
its
entirety.
They
are
not
obligated
another
Planning
Act
and
what
have
a
strong
basis
for
appeal
of
any
requirement
we
would
put
on
that.
N
R
Mean
you
chose
it.
A
hundred
percent
and
I
mean
what
I
listen
carefully
to
what
you
said.
You
said
it's
not
attributable
to
that
development
in
its
entirety,
but
certainly
in
some
portion
it
would
be,
and
that's
why
we
often
have
you
know,
negotiation,
because
development
charges
are
not
endless
either.
There's
only
so
much
and
there's
a
lot
more
plans
for
development
charges
than
we
have
money
for
we
have
intersections.
We
fund
one
traffic
intersection
a
year
currently
because
we
don't
have
enough
development
charges.
R
A
A
A
A
carried
most
of
which
notice
has
been
previously
given
by
councillor
Menard
the
matters
now
redundant.
Meek
has
been
dealt
with
by
the
Auditor
Audit
Committee.
It
will
come
to
committee,
a
council
next
meeting,
motions
requiring
suspension,
the
rules
of
procedure,

Eli
L

and
by
councillor
suds
on
a
mural.
This
time-sensitive
on
suspension
carried
counselor
Ellis
until
you'd
like
to
introduce
your
motions
and
my
counselor
studs.
Thank.
K
You
I
thank
you,
worship
and,
as
you
heard
earlier,
mr.
mayor
staff
are
trying
to
develop
a
policy
about
this.
This
is
just
an
old
building
on
Main
Street
in
the
village
of
carp
and
BIA
has
gonna
place.
Her
mayor's
gonna
really
bring
a
nice
addition
to
the
to
the
Main
Street
of
carbs,
so
smooth
by
myself.

Whereas
the
recreation,

department
offers
a
multitude
of
recreation
and
leisure
programming
to
promote

We.
I
D
You,
chair
I
have
an
inquiry
which
is
also
been
brought
by
councillors,
McKenney
and
Menard.
With
respect
to
harassment
on
OC
Transpo
buses,
advertisements
for
action
life
have
recently
been
purchased
on
OC
Transpo
buses
that
invites
pregnant
women
to
call
for
help.
It
has
been
asserted
that
action
life
is
not
a
pregnancy
counseling
agency.
The
Canadian
Advertising
Standards
do
not
allow
for
misleading
advertising.
In
light
of
late
2018
court
ruling
involving
the
City
of
Hamilton
and
bus
shelter
ads.
D
A
Strike
to
the
city,
clerk
and
solicitor,
thank
you
to
members
of
council
and
staff
who
have
worn
pink
today.
This
is
national
pink
shirt
day.
Anti-Bullying
initiative
appreciate
that,
and
also
our
thoughts
are
with
the
family
of
the
late
dr.,
senator
Wilbert,
Keon
I.
Think
most
of
us
probably
had
the
great
honor
to
meet
him
over
our
time
whether
it
was
a
hard,
Institute,
telethon
or
or
different
work.
He
did
in
the
community.
He
was
really
a
pioneer
heart
surgeon.
A
The
first
open-heart
surgery,
heart
replacement,
taken
place
under
his
watch
and
he
was
really
the
founder
of
the
Heart
Institute
that
has
literally
saved
so
many
lives.
So
on
behalf
of
all
members
of
council
in
the
entire
city,
we
wish
our
the
very
best
during
this
difficult
time
to
was
my
fan
and
their
children,
and
we,
our
thoughts
and
prayers,
are
with
him
I'm
going
to
have
the
honor
of
representing
the
city
at
the
funeral.
Tomorrow
morning,
journeyman
counselor
McKenney
insides.
Please.
