A

Thank
you,
mr
mayor.
Yes,
the
live
stream
for
the
city
council
meeting
has
resumed
on
the
ottawa
city,
council
and
const
minispelt
youtube
channels.
Rogers
tv,
cable,
22
and
23
are
still
having
technical
difficulties,
but
will
resume
broadcasting
as
soon
as
those
are
resolved.
So
the
meeting
may
proceed.
Mr
mayor.
A
Okay,
thank
you
now,
councilor
hart,
are
you
at
the
floor
when
we
started
with
the
technical
difficulties
the
floor
is
yours,.
C
Thanks,
mr
mayor,
as
I
was
saying
that
it's
I've
been
to
many
meetings-
and
this
is,
I
think,
the
most
bizarre
one-
and
I
think
it
is
because
almost
all
of
the
people
who
never
support
any
investment
in
the
city
or
any
large
project
in
the
city
always
find
a
way
to
spit
on
it
or
to
make
excuses.
Still
talking
about
trees.
Still
talking
about
parking
garages,
not
talking
about
what
this
means.
Can
we
never
be
happy
and
thankful
and
grateful
for
what
a
great
city
we
have
broadcast.
C
B
E
B
As
I
was
saying
that
it's
you
know.
C
Billion
dollars
billion,
it's
not
new.
What
is
new
is
we
have
this
great
opportunity.
The
formula
is
what
it
is:
a
half
a
billion
dollars
in
a
city
of
a
million
and
a
little
bit,
and
hopefully
the
surrounding
area
is
doable
the
faster
it's
doable,
the
faster
we
we
move
forward
and
open
up
our
new
health
trauma
center,
okay,
and
that's
what's
important
if
it
was
as
easy
as
just
like
having
a
lottery.
C
Why
did
we
not
do
that
before?
Why
didn't
we
have
a
lottery
for
the
new
central
library?
Why
don't
we
do
a
lottery
for
lansdowne?
Why
don't
we
do
a
lottery
for
lrt
out
to
canada
and
stittsville
and
barnhaven?
Why
don't
we?
Why
did
we
not
furlough
breton
flats
all
of
these
times?
Why
would
we
now?
C
I
have
always
been
aware
of
how
difficult
it
was
going
to
be
for
all
of
the
other
health
services,
whether
it's
the
hmong
farm,
whether
it's
the
heart
institute,
whether
it's
the
queensway
carlton
and
on
and
on
when
this
challenge
of
a
half
a
billion
dollars
which
I've
known
about
for
I'd,
say
at
least
six
years
came
before
us,
and
how
would
we
ever
be
able
to
keep
those
very
important
health
engines
going
with
the
fundraising
that
they
needed
for
mother's
day?
C
The
queensland
carlton
was
trying
to
raise
money
for
baby
incubators
for
their
birthing
unit,
baby
incubators,
so
take
your
trees
and
your
freaking
parking
lot
and
shove
it
where
the
sun
doesn't
shine,
because
you
know
what
all
that
we're
being
asked
to
do
is
to
give
our
very
talented
city
chief
financial
officer
the
opportunity
to
do
all
she
can
okay
to
find
out
ways
that
we
can
contribute
something
that
is
acceptable
to
the
people
and
the
businesses
in
this
city.
C
C
I
mean
it's
just
gone
crazy,
so
I
will
be
voting
for
the
staff
recommendation
and
I
will
be
looking
forward
as
a
private
citizen
to
the
report
that
will
come
back,
but
I,
as
I
always
have
been,
will
be
helping
the
foundations
of
the
medical
centers
in
this
city
raise
money,
and
I
hope
that
all
of
you
will
cut
the
nonsense
and
start
doing
exactly
that
too.
Thank
you
very
much,
mr
mayor.
G
Thank
you,
mr
mayor,
and
I'm
taking
a
deep
breath
before
what
to
say
after
that
speech
from
council
harder.
Thank
you,
council,
harder
well
said,
and
colleagues,
we
spent
quite
a
bit
of
time
on
committee
and
we
heard
from
from
the
hospital
and
we
had
from
the
foundation
and
and
we
keep
hearing
wow.
This
is
the
you
know.
G
This
should
be
solely
the
provincial
government
responsibility
I
like
to
remind
everyone,
and
I
think
we
we
are
reminded
every
once
in
a
while
there's
only
one
taxpayer
who
pay
for
everything
doesn't
matter
how
you
dice
it
doesn't
matter
how
you
slice
it.
It's
one
taxpayer
who
paid
this.
This
is
not
about
that
the
150
million
dollar
mr
may.
This
is
about
whether
we
want
this
hospital
or
not,
and
this
is
about
trusting
our
staff
to
come
back
with
a
creative
way
to
deal
with
with
the
150
million.
G
A
Well,
colleagues,
I'm
going
to
be
supporting
the
staff
recommendation
for
a
number
of
reasons.
This
is
one
of
these
votes.
That
is
a
test
of
our
collective
leadership
as
members
of
city
council.
A
No
one
likes
the
fact
that
we
have
to
pay
in
part
for
a
provincial
responsibility,
but
those
are
the
rules
and
there
are
a
lot
of
other
hospitals.
I
believe
10
that
are,
in
the
queue
ready
to
get
funding
that
have
commitments
from
their
host
communities,
and
I
don't
want
to
put
at
risk
this
massive
2.1
billion
dollar
investment
into
the
city
of
ottawa.
A
That
will
have
a
tremendous
impact
on
the
health
care
we
receive
and
a
tremendous
positive
impact
on
the
economy,
and
I
keep
hearing
you
know
we
can't
make
this
decision
because
our
term
is
almost
over
last
time.
I
checked
we're
elected
for
four
years,
not
three
and
a
half
years,
so
we
have
to
keep
coming
to
work
for
the
next
six
months,
and
this
is
a
test
of
leadership.
A
Let
me
a
quote.
I
just
got
from
my
friend,
jim
durrell.
Many
of
you
know
jim
was
one
of
our
best
mayors
in
recent
memory.
He
sent
this
quote
if
we
want
to
achieve
anything
in
this
world,
we
have
to
get
used
to
the
idea
that
not
everyone
will
like
us
think
about
that.
For
a
minute.
We
can't
please
everyone
all
the
time.
A
Some
people
are
dragging
out
the
location
of
the
site,
they're
going
to
vote
against
it
because
they
don't
like
the
location.
Well,
the
site
has
been
chosen
and
work
will
soon
begin
on
that
site
and
the
notion
of
simply
having
the
city
run
a
lottery.
When
there's
been
no
consultation
with
the
number
one
lottery
in
our
city,
the
chio
lottery,
it
does
a
disservice
to
those
other
health
care
partners.
A
Those
kinds
of
costs
should
be
with
the
provincial
government
and
provincial
taxpayers,
not
the
city
of
ottawa,
but,
as
many
of
you
have
said,
the
rules
for
the
city
and
the
community
contributing
are
very
clear,
and
so
I
would
encourage
members
to
think
beyond
the
parochial
think,
beyond
you're
unhappy
with
the
site
or
that
trees
are
going
to
be
removed,
which,
by
the
way,
every
tree
removed,
five
will
be
replanted.
So
that's
a
pretty
good
return
on
investment.
A
And
yes,
the
next
council
will
make
the
final
decision,
but
we
have
to
lay
the
groundwork
over
the
course
of
the
next
couple
of
months
so
that
they
can
hit
the
ground
running
and
we
don't
have
another
long
debate.
The
delay
shovels
getting
in
the
ground.
I
believe
that
staff
should
be
given
that
mandate.
A
So
it's
not
really
council's
job
to
do
the
work
of
the
foundation.
The
foundation
decides,
they
want
to
run
a
lottery
or
they
want
to
have
a
bake,
sale
or
whatever
else
then
they'll
do
it,
and
many
of
us
will
go
out
and
support
it
with
our
own
funds.
So
the
first
item
we're
going
to
vote
on
is
the
referral
motion
by
councillor
fleury,
saying
by
myself
that
the
me
and
bronte
motion
be
referred
to
the
city
treasurer
for
review
as
part
of
the
tools
that
could
help
advance
funding
of
this
project.
B
H
I
J
K
B
A
A
Motion
carries
and
we
wish
the
hospital
the
very
best
in
their
discussions
with
the
province.
One
item
was
held
or
a
couple
of
items
held:
counselor
leeper.
You
wanted
us
to
hold
item
4
on
roosevelt
and
winston
and
wilmot.
I
Thank
you
very
much
mayor
this
item
passed
very
quickly
or
sorry,
with
overwhelming
support
at
planning
committee
and
I'm
under
no
allusions
as
to
its
fortune.
Today.
I
do
just
want
to
point
out,
though
kitchissippi
ward
has
grown
by
something
I
believe
mayor
in
your
speech
on
lansdowne.
You
said
19
over
the
last
20
years
and
it's
it's
set
for
even
more
explosive
growth.
I
The
development
in
question
has
been
put
to
council
as
necessary
in
order
to
ensure
that
we
have
the
density
that
we
need
near
transit
in
kitchissippi
ward,
and
you
know
I
don't
know
how
many
actually
saw
it
today,
but
without
debate
we
approved
a
30-story
tower.
That
is
something
like
200
meters
away
from
this
development:
we're
not
in
any
danger
of
not
having
enough
density
in
kitchissippi
ward,
we're
just
not
the
for
in
2014.
I
I
The
height
on
this
one
matters
to
the
residents
who
live
nearby
and
it's
not
a
question
of
density.
It's
not
a
question
of
getting
moving
on
building
more
housing,
which
is
something
that
the
city
has
to
do
six
years
ago.
This
developer
could
have
built
with
roughly
the
same
density,
an
eight-story
building
and
housing
just
about
as
many
people
in
keeping
with
the
direction
the
constraint
that
was
imposed
by
the
ontario
municipal
board.
I
I'm
asking
council
to
reject
this
application
today,
partly
to
give
residents
some
confidence
that,
as
we
go
through
rezoning
our
city,
to
keep
up
with
the
official
plan
that
we're
going
to
respect
that
there
are
constraints
that
are
reasonable
on
growth.
That
secondary
plans
will
mean
something
that
every
rezoning
isn't
going
to
be
approved
simply
because
the
developer
is
proposing
more
housing
that
there
is
a
balance
to
be
achieved.
I
This
isn't
a
question
of
density.
It's
not
a
question
of
keeping
kitchissippi
ward,
a
low
density,
neighborhood
we've
got
the
density
and
that's
going
to
continue
and
it's
going
to
explode
and
I'm
going
to
continue
to
support
buildings
where
they
make
sense,
like
the
30-story
building
that
we
just
approved
without
debate.
H
Council
libra,
how
close
is
this?
Is
this
to
to
transit.
I
It's
it's
immediately
adjacent
kitty,
corner
to
the
new
kitchen
station.
The.
What
I
would
ask
people
to
keep
in
mind
is
that
it's
it's
going
to
be
luxury
housing
with
virtually
a
one-to-one
parking
ratio,
so
they're
they're,
asking
for
greater
height
on
the
basis
that
it's
close
to
transit,
right
they're,
asking
to
go
from
the
mid-rise
form
to
the
high-rise
form,
without
increasing
density
in
any
really
significant
way.
I
That
will
make
a
difference
in
our
city's
housing
because
they're
next
to
kitchissippi
station
and
yet
their
parking
garage
will
be
stuffed
with
cars
and
those
cars
are
going
to
add
further
to
the
congestion
with
which
we
have
to
deal
in
kitchissippi
ward.
I
absolutely
understand
the
point
that
we
want
density
near
transit
six
years
ago.
This
developer
could
have
chosen
to
put
the
same
density
in
a
mid-rise
form
next
to
transit,
rather
than
having
to
go
with
a
high-rise
form
with
the
same
density
next
to
transit.
I
The
height
on
this
one
matters
residents
would
much
prefer
the
mid-rise
built
form
on
a
street
that
is
not
arterial.
The
question
is
not
about
how
many
people
are
we
adding
next
to
transit?
There's
no
meaningful
discussion
to
be
had
there.
This
discussion
is
about
the
built
form,
as
I
said
in
my
comments,
size
matters.
F
I
think
in
fairness
to
the
community
who
went
to
the
omb,
the
proponent
should
be
respecting
our
plans
and
the
decision
back
in
2014
of
the
omb,
and
I
don't
think
that
there
is
any
compelling
reason
to
add
stories
onto
this
building
when
our
plans
say
that
this
is
the
right
height
and
also,
I
think
the
other
thing
that
council
really
needs
to
consider
here
is
how
we're
dealing
with
planning
applications
when
it
comes
to
active
transportation
and
our
climate
change
priority
and
I'm
finding
it
very
frustrating
that
we
don't
seem
to
have
the
tools
or
the
ability
or
the
will
perhaps
to
compel
proponents
who
are
building
significant,
builds
in
our
community
to
do
the
right
thing
and
add
active
transportation.
F
And
I
think,
as
a
council,
we
really
need
to
look
at
the
outdated
tools
that
we
have
that
are
allowing
developers
to
come
in
and
make
significant
builds
in
our
community
without
contributing
to
our
climate
change
goals
and
agenda,
and
not
to
be
adding
the
active
transportation
pieces
that
they
need
to
these
applications.
So,
for
that
reason,
I'm
going
to
be
supporting
counselor
leeper's
perspective.
Thank
you.
L
Thank
you.
I
just
just
to
touch
on
the
the
size
matters
comment
so
does
shape
so
does
design
how
the
building
relates
to
the
people
who
will
live
there,
how
the
building
sits
on
the
property
in
terms
of
its
its
its
use
of
the
of
the
landscape
and
what
amenity
space
can
be
built
into
the
footprint
of
the
building
into
the
into
the
open
space
in
the
building
for
the
future
people
that
will
live
there.
We
often
talk
about
the
impact
of
construction
and
buildings
on
those
who
live
around
it,
but
we
don't.
L
We
don't
ever
hear
from
the
people
who
will
live
in
a
building
because
they
don't
live
there
yet,
but
that
matters
too.
It
matters
that
the
people
who
are
going
to
live
in
this
building
have
a
decent
design
and
that
they
don't
live
in
this
short
block
of
a
building
that
takes
up
most
of
the
footprint,
with
no
actual
amenity
space
on
the
ground.
How
the
taller
buildings,
with
the
smaller
footprint
interact
with
the
community
in
terms
of
the
the
avenue,
through
winston,
to
come
up
into
the
site?
How
that
extends
through?
L
That
doesn't
happen
with
a
shorter
building.
I've
used
the
same
argument
for
900
albert
it
was.
It
was
a
wall
of
30-story
towers
versus
a
taller,
a
much
taller
building.
I
agree
it's
65
stories,
but
it's
it's
a
better
design
than
that
shorter
building.
You
get
the
same
density,
so
this
isn't
a
density,
urban
boundary
versus
intensification
argument.
It's
a
design
argument,
it's
about
what's
better
on
the
site
and
how
does
it
interact
with
the
community,
but
also
what
about
the
people
that
will
live
there
and
what
are
we
designing
our
city
to
be?
L
If
we're
only
worried
about
how
other
people
see
the
building,
but
also
a
shorter
building
is
not
better
from
a
from
a
community
perspective
because
it
is
wider
and
because
it
takes
up
more
space
and
it
impacts
more
of
the
sight
lines
and
it
impacts
more
of
the
more
of
the
shadowing
effect
design
matters.
You
know
it
mattered
on
a
project
a
few
years
ago
on
preston,
where
a
building
went
from
35
stories,
a
great
design
down
to
30
stories
and
a
not
so
great
design
that
building
is
currently
being
built.
L
But
we
we
need
to
focus
on
that
too,
and
we
often
we
often
hamstring
ourselves,
because
we
we
create
these
policies
where
we
box
in
we
box
in
creativity.
We
we
say
you
have
a
building
cap,
but
you
have
a
density
target
and
it
doesn't
fit
together.
So
you
you,
you
stymie
creativity
and
in
building
design
by
doing
that,
and
I
feel
that
you
know
this,
isn't
you
know
this?
Isn't
the
2013
official
plan.
This
is
we're.
Looking
we're
looking
to
the
future
as
to
how
we
design
the
transit
stations
there.
L
I
think
it's
important
that
we
have
a
good
design
building,
but
one
that
does
you
know,
take
into
consideration
some
of
the
comments
of
the
omb.
It's
not
what
it
used
to
be
in
terms
of
what
the
original
design
was.
It
is
lower,
but
it's
a
better
interaction
with
the
with
with
the
ground
and
how
the
residents
of
this
building
will
be
able
to
utilize
this
site
and
the
experience
of
them
in
this
site
for
the
long
term,
not
just
for
the
short
term.
E
Thanks
mayor,
I
completely
agree
with
the
comments
from
councillor
moffitt.
If,
if
we
don't
believe
this
location
is
appropriate
for
this
development
beside
a
future
lrt
station,
then
what
is
an
appropriate
location
for
these
types
of
buildings?
I
don't
believe
they're
egregious.
I
do
not
believe
they're
out
of
place,
I
don't
believe
they're
out
of
line
within
that
corridor,
where
we
see
much
taller
buildings.
In
fact,
I
believe
at
committee
I
said
we
should
be
building
bigger
at
this
station.
E
We
as
a
city
are
talking
about
height
and
density,
around
our
lrt
stations
within
a
certain
radius
and
having
looked
at
the
design
and
and
acknowledging
yes
acknowledging
that
there
are
concerns
within
the
community.
I
believe
that
this
is
a
reasonable
fit,
so
I
will
be
supporting
the
recommendation.
E
I
do
want
to
see
height
and
density
around
lrt
stations.
We
want
people
to
be
able
to
make
the
switch
from
dependence
on
the
automobile
to
having
reliable
a
transit
corridor
in
their
neighborhood,
and
this
does
so.
We
need
to
be
bringing
people
across
the
city
within
a
reasonable
distance
from
these
corridors
and
we
need
to
see
height
and
we
need
to
see
density.
Thank
you.
D
Please
thank
you
very
much
mayor
just
some
questions
to
staff.
D
F
Mr
mayor,
I
have
mr
doug
james
online,
so
he
can
respond
to
this
question.
M
Yes,
thank
you,
mr
mayor,
of
course
the
the
community
always
has
the
right
to
appeal
that
they
may
they
may
very
well
do
so.
It's
up
to
them,
we'll
just
have
to
wait
and
see
until
afterwards,
but
I
just
want
to
say
that,
based
on
the
policies
in
the
official
plan
and
since
2013-
and
I
had
the
say,
the
the
privilege-
I
guess
or
the
I
was
the
the
planner
at
the
time
who
went
to
the
umb
there
twice.
M
Actually
we
have
some
new
policies
through
opa
115,
a
lot
of
them
deal
with
transition
that
making
the
staff
recommendation
on
this
proposal.
We
feel
that
the
revised
proposal
actually
fits
within
those
policies
and
represents
good
planning
going
forward,
but
with
respect
to
the
community,
we'll
have
to
see
if
they
do
appeal
it.
Okay,.
D
Okay,
it
I
mean-
and
this
is
this-
is
not
really
a
question
of
of
density.
As
we've
been
saying,
it's
about
built
forms,
it's
not
about
height
at
transit
stations,
about
the
density.
The
density
is
already,
you
know
can
be,
can
be
worked
in,
whether
it's
it's
8
or
12
or
whatever
it
might
be.
I
guess
my
vote
on
this
will
weigh
on
the
official
plan.
So
what
is
the
if
we
just
passed
an
official
plan
here,
it's
not
in
in
force
yet.
But
what
does
the
new
official
plan
say?
D
M
Yes
well,
mr
mayor,
in
the
we
have
the
richmond
road
westborough
secondary
plan.
That
is
current
one,
and
it
also
has
been,
as
the
its
council
bernard
has
said,
has
been
put
into
the
new
official
plan
as
well,
and
that's
part
of
the
overall
direction,
part
of
the
report
that
was
written
by
council.
It
satisfies
the
direction
in
the
new
official
plan,
the
amendment
that
is
before
council
for
the
official
plan.
M
Amendment
deals
with
the
secondary
plan
to
go
from
the
current
height
up
to
12
stories,
and
that,
of
course,
is
based
on
satisfying
the
policies
that
have
been
approved
by
council
to
allow
this
development.
But
the
secondary
plan
is
itself
being
put
into
the
new
official
plan.
Yes,
mr
mayor.
D
Okay,
that's
helpful,
I
just
I
we
have
to
do
better
because
we
have
a
new
official
plan
we've
just
approved.
We
want
that
to
be
approved
by
the
minister
or
by
new
provincial
government
that
comes
in
we.
We
need
a
publicly
planned
city
right.
We
want
a
publicly
planned
city,
not
a
privately
planned
city,
and
too
often
we
see
this.
We
just
minted
a
new
official
plan
and
it
goes
through
very
clearly
what
should
be
here
and
what
shouldn't
that
said.
D
I
don't
like
the
parking
here,
but
I
don't
see
a
ton
of
other
concerns.
Besides
the
parking
and
a
bit
of
the
neighbors
concerns
around
height,
the
density
is
good.
The
transit
is
good.
The
design
looks
fair,
so
there's
a
lot
of
things
here
that
I
think
are
okay
as
well,
but
I
just
for
a
signal
for
next
term
of
council.
D
We
have
to
get
to
a
point
where
we're
publicly
planning
our
city
and
abiding
by
the
plans
we've
just
put
in
place
in
the
new
official
plan,
or
we
will
continue
with
the
constant
fights
that
we've
got
going,
where
there's
not
clarity
for
people
on
what
they
can
and
cannot
build
in
certain
locations,
so
I'll
leave
it
there
mayor.
Thank
you.
A
N
Thank
you
very
much,
mr
mayor.
Just
following
up
on
what
councilor
moffat
was
saying
about
the
the
built
for
matters
with
with
more
stories,
I
would
assume
that
there's
going
to
be
a
smaller
footprint
on
on
this
property,
with
that
smaller
footprint,
what
kind
of
use
of
the
additional
space,
what
what?
What
will
they
be
using
additional
space?
How
will
that
be
an
asset
to
the
community.
M
Well,
mr
mayor,
if
I
may,
the
the
zoning
that's
there
now
would
allow
up
to.
I
think
it's
a
sixty
percent
lot
coverage
and
they're
forty-eight
and
I
think,
as
councilor
moffat
had
mentioned
earlier,
there's
going
to
be
through
the
site
plan.
M
M
It
would
be
yes,
mr
mayor,
it
would
be
a
benefit
to
the
community
from
the
south
going
north
towards
the
transit
and
the
ability
to
use
the
site,
and
that's
actually
that
something
came
up
in
2013
2014,
but
it
will
continue
to
be
carried
forward
with
this
proposal.
M
Now,
in
terms
of
open
space,
there
is
the
there's
the
the
city's
mup
along
there.
Also
that
runs
east
west.
There
is
actually
a
city
lot
on
the
other
side
of
342
roosevelt,
which
is
green
space.
I
think
it
might
be
being
used
right
now
with
respect
to
the
construction
of
the
of
the
lrt
extension,
but
just
going
through
my
mind's
eye
there.
That
would
be
the
biggest
it's
not
a
formal
part,
but
it
is
it's
a
city-owned
lot.
That's
green
space.
N
Okay,
I
wanna
I
wanna
thank
you
for
that,
so
it
is
possible
at
this
council
to
have
civilized
debate
whether
we
are
opposing
issues
losing
sides,
it's
good
to
know.
Thank
you.
A
Okay,
does
anyone
else
wish
to
speak
to
the
report?
A
I'll
just
offer
a
very
brief
comment:
we
all
talk:
a
good
tale
about
transit,
oriented
development,
putting
transit
and
greater
density
around
transit
stations,
it's
good
for
the
environment,
good
for
the
transit
system,
good
for
the
economy
and
yet
every
once
in
a
while.
A
project
comes
in
this
one,
particularly
I
think,
of
the
trailhead
project,
the
trailhead
building
that
members
of
the
community
and
the
ward
councillor
opposed.
Yet
it
was
literally
across
the
street
from
the
westboro
station.
A
So,
if
we're
serious
about
transitory
development,
these
are
the
low-hanging
fruit
options
really
when
it
comes
to
supporting
it,
because
we
want
to
have
a
density
around
those
transit
stations
we
want
to
have
15-minute
neighborhoods.
I
think
that
project
where
trailhead
was
is
great.
The
farm
boy.
I
go
there
quite
often
there's
a
daycare
center.
A
couple
of
office
towers.
It
is
turned
into
be
a
very
nice
community,
which
will
be
even
nicer
and
more
efficient
when
the
train
stops
at
the
westboro
station.
A
B
K
O
E
P
P
K
P
M
A
Okay,
next
item
that
was
held
was
moving
to
sustainable
care
of
our
public
spaces.
I
believe
councilor
brockington
did.
I
have
it
right
that
you
had
a
question.
Oh
sorry,
counselor
king,
I
had
an
r
there.
It
was
rightly
or
wrong.
O
No
problem,
thank
you,
your
worship.
I
just
wanted
to
make
a
comment.
As
we
know,
colleagues,
the
city
is
right
away
this.
The
green
space
between
the
road
and
the
property
line
or
sidewalk
otherwise,
known
as
the
boulevard,
can
be
the
perfect
spot
for
a
garden
boulevard,
gardens
beautify.
Our
roadsides
and
well-chosen
non-invasive
plants
that
are
designed
to
retain
moisture
can
reduce
water
usage
and
therefore
the
need
to
use
mowers
and
fertilizer.
O
Introducing
native
and
diverse
plant
species
can
also
improve
the
overall
health
of
our
city's
ecosystem.
For
these
reasons,
I'm
very
pleased
to
have
worked
very
cooperatively
and
constructively
with
counselor
dudas
to
bring
forward
the
motion
that
is
before
you.
I
also
would
like
to
thank
all
the
people
who
worked
hard
in
my
community
over
the
last
few
months
to
help
bring
this
motion
forward.
There
have
been
many
iterations
of
this
motion
and
city
staff
were
collaborative
and
receptive
to
all
the
feedback
from
my
office
as
well
as
from
council
dudes.
O
Every
step
of
the
way
were
invaluable
to
relatively
quickly
turn
around
this
to
see
the
quick
turnaround
on
this
file
that
we've
seen
as
councillor
dudas
noted
when
introducing
this
motion
at
last
month's
transportation
committee.
Meeting
residents,
who
have
been
interested
in
gardening,
boulevards
or
right-of-ways,
have
unfortunately
run
afoul
of
our
existing
bylaws
or
have
had
issues
concerning
liability
or
even
experienced
conflict
with
their
neighbors,
because
there
has
been
no
clear
process
for
both
city
staff
or
for
residents
to
follow
in
regards
to
what
is
permissible.
O
I
myself
witnessed
such
a
scenario
in
one
of
my
communities
where
a
bylaw
infringement
notice
for
a
resident
was
issued
for
boulevard
garden
last
summer,
working
with
city
staff
and
neighbors.
We
were
able
to
resolve
this
issue,
but
this
motion
works
to
redress.
These
challenges
and
respond
to
community
concerns
to
strengthen
our
city's
policies
in
order
to
recognize
the
value
of
urban
greening,
naturalization
protection
of
biodiversity
and
respect
for
the
historical
context
of
our
land.
O
Further,
some
communities
do
not
have
much
green
space
other
than
boulevards,
and
so
the
planting
of
gardens
could
be
a
step
towards
improving
current
inequal
access
to
green
space
in
our
city.
As
a
consequence
of
all
these
benefits,
as
well
as
ensuring
the
city
better
align
our
policies
with
the
climate
change
master
plan.
I'm
pleased
to
see
this
motion
before
us
before
us
for
consideration.
A
Thank
you
merci
and
consider
king
on
the
motion
carried
update.
So
our
next
item
is
that
was
held
this
one's
by
councillor
brockington,
the
carlington
north
veterans,
housing,
heritage,
study,
council,
brockington.
E
E
Sorry,
the
subcommittee
on
build
heritage
and
planning
committee
history
in
north
carlington
goes
back
to
the
end
of
the
second
world
war,
when
this
community,
in
particular,
was
developed,
400
veterans,
homes
for
veterans
and
those
who
supported
the
war
effort
here
at
home
and
there's
a
great
pride
and
respect
respect
in
this
community.
E
I
fully
support
those
recommendations
as
well,
and
I
do
appreciate
the
fact
that
this
new
character
study
will
be
looked
at
after
three
years
that
we
will
come
back
after
three
years
and
see
if
there
needs
to
be
any
modifications
or
tweaks.
All
this
to
say
a
thanks
again
to
heritage
staff
for
those
work
on
this
file
and
the
community
supports
the
recommendations
before
us.
Thank
you,
mayor.
D
Mayor
just
on
the
bulk
consent
agenda-
my
apologies.
I
just
chatted
with
the
clerk.
There
was
two
items
that
I
wanted
to
descent
on
and
I
missed
it
with
your
will
be
very
helpful.
The
brownfield
grant
application
j
and
the
brownfield
grant
application
k.
It's
a
brownfield
grant
application
to
to
development
companies.
D
Sorry
it
was
jay
and
j
and
k
on
the
bulk
consent.
A
Okay,
so
we
haven't
passed
the
bulk
consent,
so
that's
fine!
So
on
the
bulk
consent
we
have
a
replacement
for
or
in
addition
rather
for
n
councillor
gower.
I
believe
you
have
and
we'll
put
up
on
the
screen.
This
is
adding
to
item
n.
It
was
something
left
off
at
the
staff
level.
K
That's
correct:
we're
adding
a
map
so,
whereas,
with
respect
to
document
five
of
the
report,
the
map
was
inadvertently
not
included
in
the
attachment
and
whereas
the
report
seeks
to
amend
the
leap
from
community
design
plan
to
designate
2960
lead
from
road
and
one
unaddressed
parcel
as
general
urban
pursuant
to
document.
Five,
therefore
be
it
resolved
that,
with
respect
to
the
report
council,
revised
document
five
to
include
the
enclosed
map,
therefore
be
it
further
resolved
that
there
be
no
further
notice.
Pursuant
to
section
3417
of
the
planning
act.
A
Okay,
thank
you
on
that
kerry.
Did
anyone
else
hold
anything
from
bulk
consent?
I
don't
believe
so
so
counselor
we've
recorded
counselor
menard's
dissents
on
the
bulk
consent
agenda.
As
amended.
That's
carried.
A
B
Thank
you

be

A
E
Thank
you
mayor.
The
motion
before
council
this
morning
in
essence
asks
for
a
temporary
prohibition
of
driving
school
vehicles
on
three
streets
in
the
hunt
club
community.
They
are
lillico,
bennet
and
aaron,
and
the
rationale
for
this
is
the
mto
in
order
to
address
a
backlog
of
requests
for
for
driving
tests
due
to
cobit
some
of
the
restrictions
that
covet
had
opened
temporary
offices
in
three
locations
across
ontario,
including
in
ottawa.
So
at
3310
mccarthy,
road
in
riverward
there
is
a
temporary
mto
office.
That's
been
opened.
E
We
have,
as
a
council
historically
addressed
some
chronic
problems
in
neighborhoods.
That
abut
a
permanent
mto
offices.
One
is
on
canatech
and
the
other
is
on
walkley
road
and
past
councils,
as
I
said,
have
taken
action
to
prohibit
driving
school
vehicles
in
the
immediate
communities
from
these
permanent
mt
offices,
because,
as
you
might
imagine,
the
mto
testers
use
these
immediate
communities
to
to
have
those
driving
tests
and
that
that
causes
a
number
of
issues
that
the
council
has
tried
to
address
in
the
past.
E
E
This
is
where
families
have
raised
issues
with
the
proliferation
of
driving
school
vehicles
and,
as
a
result,
drive
test
has
said
no
worries.
We
will
simply
amend
the
test
routes
that
are
used
in
the
community
and
have
support
for
this
request
when
the
temporary
office
closes,
which
is
expected
later
this
month.
Part
two
of
this
motion
says
we'll
repeal
the
bylaw
amendment
that
we
are
passing
today,
so
this
is
not
asked
to
be
a
permanent
prohibition
simply
as
long
as
the
temporary
office
is
open.
A
P
Yes
see
mr
math,
thank
you
very
much,
mr
mayor
and
I
introduced
the
motion
on
may
at
the
end
of
april.
It
was
crafted
with
staff,
particularly
commemorative
tree
and
commemorative
naming,
and
at
the
request
of
the
altavista
community
association
and
the
green
space
stewardship
committee.
P
P
Reached
the
end
of
their
life
cycle
and
those
were
commemorating
the
the
battle
report,
the
cities
found
a
new
location
nearby.
A
new
tree
worked
with
dedicated
neighbors
to
update
this
important
commemoration
of
the
protection
of
green
space
in
grasshopper
hill
park.
Ciao.
A
Elsie
on
the
motion
carried
about
day
requiring
suspension
of
the
rules
of

motion
item
first,
one
rather
is
councilor.
Mckinney
started
by

carrie
councillor
mckinney.
Thank.
Q
You
I'll
read
it
I'll,
read
it
into
the
the
record,
whereas
council
has
been
monitoring
the
status
of
the
building
located
at
352,
somerset,
somerset
street
west,
known
as
somerset
house,
and
whereas
the
general
manager
of
planning
real
estate
and
economic
development.
Together
with
the
chief
building
official
and
the
director
of
bylaw
and
regulatory
services,
have
confirmed.
Q
Q
Therefore,
be
it
resolved
that
council
direct
heritage
planning
staff
to
bring
a
report
to
update
build
heritage
subcommittee
at
its
next
meeting,
planned
for
june
20th
2022
on
the
status
of
the
building
and
be
it
further
resolved.
That
council
direct
the
general
manager
of
planning
real
estate
and
economic
development
to
work
with
the
chief
building.
Official
and
director
of
bylaw
and
regulatory
services
to
stabilize
and
secure
the
retention
and
conservation
of
the
somerset
house
structure
and
that
the
costs
of
any
work
done
be
recovered
from
the
property
owner.
Q
Q
We've
engaged
in
meaningful
dialogue
to
encourage
him
to
redevelop
this
site
and
he
has
never
taken
any
meaningful
action
unless,
of
course,
you
include
his
demolition
of
portions
of
the
building,
we
now
have
outstanding
building
code
orders
that
are
related
to
the
structural
integrity
of
this
building
and
property
standards,
order
that
are
related
to
the
heritage
attributes
of
the
building.
Q
We've
we've
invested
significant
staff
time
into
this
file
and
and
and
are
only
seeing
the
ongoing
deterioration
of
this
building,
and
while
the
owner,
you
know,
has
made
you
know,
applications
over
the
years
and
apparently
is
discussing
another
new
application.
None
have
ever
been
acted
on.
None
have
ever
been
serious
so
that
you
know
this
is
this:
is
allowing
the
city
to
go
in
and
and
stabilize
this
building
repair
it
and
and
take
the
action
that
we
need
to.
Q
You
know
to
to
ensure
that
we
don't
lose
this
this
building
that
you
know
has
been
around
for
over
a
hundred
years
and
is
on
one
of
the
busiest
corners
of
our
downtown
and
and
makes
up
part
of
the
centertown
heritage
conservation
district.
So
it's
you
know
we.
We
really
have
exhausted
all
other
tools.
Q
We've
tried
I've
been
doing
working
on
this
for
eight
years.
We
have
very
little
very
few
tools,
and
this
is
one
that
I
think
we
need
to
do
to
ensure
that
the
the
work
that
is
needed
is
finally
undertaken.
Thank
you.
A
A
A
Staff
have
spent
enormous
amount
of
time
and
effort,
he
seems
to
be
able
to
just
meet
deadlines,
just
pay
the
taxes
and
we're
frustrated,
and
the
residents
are
frustrated
to
have
this
eyesore
in
the
middle
of
our
central
city.
So
hopefully
mr
q
gets
word
of
this
motion
and
gets
word
of
these
remarks
and
he
comes
back
to
city
hall
and
acts
as
a
responsible
citizen
and
fix
his
damn
building
once
and
for
all.
A
It
has
the
potential
to
be
such
a
beautiful
building,
the
red
brick
and
the
furnace
work,
the
woodwork
around
the
windows,
and
it
had
such
a
great
history
as
the
the
old
somerset
hotel.
I
remember,
I
think
edgar
mitchell
was
the
the
general
manager
nancy's
ex
and
it
had
such
great
potential
and
he's
allowed
it
to
deteriorate,
and
I
think
he
wants
us.
You
know
to
have
the
building
fall
down,
so
he
has.
A
O
Thank
you,
your
worship.
This
is
just
simply
a
motion
for
demolition
control
at
a
och
property
located
in
the
overbrook
neighborhood,
there
was
a
fire
there
february
26th
there
were
no
injuries
reported
and
that
family
has
been
re-housed
by
och
within
the
overbrook
community.
There
is
no
impact
or
change
on
the
family's.
Rent
insurance,
however,
would
cover
the
cost
of
repair
estimated
at
approximately
two
hundred
thousand
dollars
minus
a
50
000
deductible.
O
However,
for
public
safety
reasons,
och
is
requesting
relief
from
demolition
control
in
order
to
move
forward
with
the
demolition
of
the
property,
the
sooner
the
demolition,
the
better
for
life
safety
reasons,
the
estimated
demolition
cost
is
fifty
thousand
dollars.
The
strategy
is
to
allocate
to
fifty
thousand
dollars
otherwise
used
as
a
deductible
towards
the
cost
of
the
demolition
stat.
The
balance
of
the
insurance
claim
after
the
deductible
will
go
towards
the
support
support
of
replacing
the
lost
unit
and
with
approval
from
council
lifting
demolition
control.
Demolition
can
proceed.
O
So
I
thank
you
so
much
for
your
support.
We
want
to
ensure
that
och
just
moves
forward
with
creating
more
investments
in
in
the
orenburg
community.
A
H
Thank
you.
If
anybody
has
any
questions
on
this
over
the
course
of
the
next
two
weeks,
please
reach
out
I'd,
be
glad
to
get
you
in
touch
with
the
company
or
answer
any
questions
that
you
might
have
so
I'll.

this
concept
for

Mr

A
Okay,
thank
you
councillor
luloff.
Our
next
notice,
emotion,
is
by
councillor
tierney
seconded
by
myself,
naming
of
mark
bingham
field
at
ken
steele
park.
Counselor
tierney
great.
P
Thank
you,
mr
mayor,
whereas
in
august
2022
I
will
be
hosting
the
bingham
cup,
the
largest
lgbtq2s
plus
inclusive
rugby
competition,
with
over
1500
participants,
coaches
officials
and
guests
coming
to
the
national
capital
from
around
the
world,
whereas
the
bingham
cup
is
named
after
mark
bingham,
a
pioneer
of
inclusive
rugby,
who
was
a
passenger
on
united
airlines
flight
93
on
september
11
2001,
and
who,
along
with
other
brave
passengers,
formed
a
plan
to
retake
the
plane
from
hijackers
that
led
to
the
effort
resulting
in
the
crash
in
pennsylvania,
rather
in
rather
than
the
building
in
washington
dc.
P
Whereas
the
bingham
cup
organizing
committee
has
dedicated
a
portion
of
the
bingham
cup
operating
budget
towards
the
legacy
investment
that
will
see
the
field
at
ken
steele
park
be
be
graded
and
leveled
and
enhanced
for
multi-sports
infrastructure
that
will
be
installed
to
the
benefits
of
soccer
rugby
clubs
for
years
to
come,
including
the
ottawa
wolves.
Inclusive
rugby
club
therefore
be
resolved
at
the
field
at
ken
steele
park,
be
known
henceforth
as
mark
bingham
field
as
part
of
the
legacy
project
of
the
bingham
cup
in
ottawa.
Thank
you,
mr
mayor.
A
Great.
Thank
you.
Council
next
is
a
motion
by
councilor
lieber
sent
by
councillor
luloff
recognition
for
ottawa
musician,
volunteer
and
philanthropist
les
emerson
counselor.
I
Thank
you
very
much
mayor.
I
won't
read
the
full
motion,
but
I
hope
that
people
will
take
a
look
at
it
on
may
26,
family
and
friends
of
les
emerson
will
gather
at
the
bronson
center
for
a
tribute
evening
of
storytelling
and
music,
and
I'm
really
pleased
to
say
that
councilor
harder
has
worked
with
the
kaivan
communities
to
ensure
that
one
of
the
main
roads
in
new
roads
in
bar
haven
will
be
named
for
les
emerson.
We
lost
him
too
soon
in
december.
21.
I
2021
I'll
be
bringing
a
motion
to
our
next
meeting,
at
which
it
will
be
resolved.
That
ottawa
city
council
recognized
the
unique
prolific
and
generous
contributions
that
les
emerson
has
made
in
ottawa
and
around
the
world
and
the
role
he
will
continue
to
play
as
a
model
and
inspiration
to
all
of
ottawa's
musicians.
Today
and
in
future.
A
Great,
I
want
to
thank
you
counselor
for
moving
the
motion
and
counselor
harder
for
her
work
behind
the
scenes.
Counselor
little
off
another
musician
for
supporting
this
and
we'll
have
a
discussion
next
meeting,
but
I
also
want
to
thank
michael
o'byrne,
formerly
of
ctv.
He
first
brought
the
idea
to
me
and
I'm
glad
to
see
it's
moved
through
the
system
so
quickly-
and
I
know
many
people
will
know
the
word-
the
music
signs
when
he
was
with
the
five-man
electrical
band.
A
Most
people
didn't
realize
he
was
an
ottawa
resident,
so
it's
nice
that
he's
getting
this
recognition
and
for
his
family
and
his
fans.
So
thank
you
for
doing
that.
Next
is
counselor
fleury,
saying
by
counselor
luloff
2022,
national
health
and
fitness
day,
counselor.
J
Thank
you,
mr
mayor.
This
has
become
an
annual
tradition
here
at
council
to
promote
the
national
health
and
fitness
day
locally,
with
a
number
of
initiatives
that
we
can
do
in
city
facilities.
It's
the
try
it
and
and
love
it
program.
So
I'll
read
that,
therefore
be
it
resolve
if,
if
you're,
okay
with
that.
J
So
therefore
be
resolved.
That
council
declares
saturday
june
4th
2022
to
be
national
health
and
fitness
day
in
ottawa.
Be
it
further
resolved
that
city
council
approved
that
the
city
offers
two
for
one
public
swimming
at
city,
operated
facility,
pools,
swimming
pools
and
two
for
one
admission
at
city,
operated
weight
and
cardio
rooms,
as
well
as
free
virtual
zuma
classes
and
a
family
outdoor
activity
sheet
on
saturday
june,
4th
2022
in
recognition
of
the
2022
national
health
and
fitness
day
here
in
ottawa,.
A
A
And
we
have
one
more
notice:
counselor
kavanaugh
seconded
by
councillor
eglai
on
prohibition
of
nuclear
weapons.
R
Thank
you,
mr
mayor.
It's
a
rather
long
motion
about
the
length
of
a
war
and
peace,
but
it's
all
about
ban
the
bombs
and
I'll
read
the
there
for
us.
Therefore,
be
it
resolved
that
the
city
of
ottawa
is
deeply
concerned
about
the
grave
threat
of
nuclear
weapons
posed
to
communities
throughout
the
world.
R
We
firmly
believe
that
our
residents
have
the
right
to
live
in
a
world
free
from
threat.
Any
use
of
nuclear
weapons,
whether
deliberate
or
accidental,
would
have
catastrophic,
far-reaching
and
long-lasting
consequences
for
people
in
environment
therefore
be
resolved.
The
city
of
ottawa
joined
with
other
canadian
cities
who
have
signed
on
to
the
city's
appeal
and
support
the
treaty
on
the
prohibition
of
nuclear
weapons
and
calling
our
governments
to
sign
and
ratify
it.
