Men

of
the
Canadian
Armed
Forces
are
represented.
33
brigade
today
we're
recognizing
the
33
domestic
response
company
in
these
brave
and
dedicated
individuals
for
their
service
to
Canadians,
and
particularly
to
the
residents
of
Ottawa
during
the
devastating
flooding
last
spring,
on
Friday
April
26.
In
response
to
my
declaration
of
a
state
of
emergency
33,
Canadian
Brigade
group
was
requested
to
call
up
a
domestic
response
which
company
to
eight
with
the
relief
efforts
for.
F
B
Cannot
repeal
of
one
and
something
the
so
deploy?
This
number
continued
to
grow
and
at
its
peak,
the
domestic
response
company
had
more
than
160
soldiers
assisting
with
the
relief
efforts.
The
majority
of
the
soldiers
are
employed
part-time
with
reserves
and
must
balance
careers,
post-secondary
institutions,
families
and
other
within
the
National
Capital
Region.
The
DRC
providing
exceptional
assistance
is
a
number
of
areas,
including
Cumberland
McClaren's,
landing
on
Lighthouse
Lane,
conscious
Bay
and
at
the
Libya
island,
water.
B
We
recognize
a
cross-section
of
the
dedicated
soldiers
from
33
domestic
response
company.
We
asked
the
the
Armed
Forces
if
they
could
provide
suggestions
of
people
who
we
should
honor
today,
because
we
obviously
couldn't
have
everyone
here,
because
it
was
in
the
hundreds.
But
I
can
tell
you
and
speaking
with
my
colleagues
who
are
up
here
with
me,
whose
awards
were
most
adversely
affected
and
councillor
suds
who's.
The
chair
of
the
committee
and
Protective
Services
Committee.
B
There
was
a
sense
of
great
relief
when
the
military
arrived
in
communities
like
Fitzroy
and
Constance,
Bay
and
Cumberland,
and
protecting
and
securing
the
Britannia
water
filtration
plant
for
the
first
couple
of
days.
As
we
all
know,
floods
come
slowly
but
surely-
and
they
don't
come
all
at
once
and
we
thought
we
could
handle
it
on
our
own
with
our
great
first
responders,
our
firefighters,
particularly
the
volunteers
in
rural
Ottawa,
our
wonderful
Public,
Works
staff,
police,
paramedics,
the
hydro
folks.
B
But
as
the
flood
continued
and
the
ice
continued
to
melt
on
the
snow
pack
up
north,
it
was
clear.
We
needed
extra
help
to
support
our
brave
men
and
women
of
the
Ottawa
Public
Service.
You
could
see
literally
the
relief
in
people's
faces
as
the
soldiers
were
coming
in
with
the
equipment
that
we
didn't
have
with
the
lab
vehicles
that
could
go
into
very
flooded
areas
and
rescue
senior
citizens
who
were
trapped
in
MacLaren's,
landing
or
Constance
Bay
or
on
the
the
shoreline
in
Cumberland
village.
B
So
the
entire
company,
as
we
all
saw,
did
outstanding
work,
putting
their
lives
on
hold
to
respond
to
the
Meade
emergency
within
the
City
of
Ottawa
and
surrounding
communities.
Thank
you
for
your
dedication
and
your
leadership.
Your
exceptional
contributions
made
a
very
real
difference
in
our
ability
to
get
through
a
devastating
natural
disaster
and,
as
you
know,
as
a
result
of
climate
change
and
the
weather
activities,
we
saw
flooding
in
2017
a
tornado
in
2018
and
flooding
again
in
2019.
I
Thank
you
for
welcoming
us
here
to
the
City
Hall
in
this
beautiful
City
of
Ottawa.
It's
a
great
pleasure
for
us
to
be
here
with
you
today.
We're
very,
very
we're
proud.
Members
of
the
Canadian
Forces
were
proud
members
of
the
reserve
forces
as
well.
We're
proud
members
of
our
own
communities
too.
We're
reservists.
I
We
have
jobs,
we
have
lives
in
civilian
life.
As
the
mayor
has
already
mentioned,
we
there
we
have
students,
we
have
four
professionals
and
they
the
are
there
they're
there
among
you
in
their
civilian
clothes
and
perhaps
you're
not
aware
that
they're
part
of
the
Canadian
Armed
Forces,
but
at
night,
over
the
weekends
and
during
crises
and
natural
disasters,
for
example,
they're
for
you
they're
there
to
serve
their
communities
and
I
have
to
tell
you
really
that.
C
Appear
then,
when
they
are
serving
directly
for
their
citizens
protecting
Canadians,
and
it
is
with
tremendous
pride
that
we
are
here
today
representing
all
of
those
that
served
during
the
flooding
of
2019,
and
we
are
truly
representative
because
there
were
many
more
soldiers
from
across
Ontario,
both
Regular
Army
soldiers
and
Reserve
soldiers
who
were
happy
and
proud
to
serve
our
fellow
Canadians.
So
thank
you
very
much
for
welcoming
us
here.
It
is
a
tremendous
honor
and,
while
I
hope
that
we
never
have
to
do
that
again,
we
stand
ready
to
serve
again
if
required.

women
and
men
in
uniform
and
thank
you
to
our

well.

B
N
Thank
you,
your
worship
just
two
comments.
First
of
all,
the
flurry
King
motion
is
very
reactionary
in
nature
and
I
wanted
to
ask
staff
about
the
proactive
element,
in
particular
in
problematic
neighborhoods.
Can
staff
list
for
us
how
they
are
being
proactive
in
neighborhoods
with
chronic
rat
issues
instead
of
waiting
for
members
of
the
community
to
file
reports
with
3-1-1?
This
motion
is
very
light
on
the
city
being
more
proactive,
so
I
just
wanted
to
get
a
sense
in
that
regard.
A
Mayor
in
terms
of
Public
Works
environmental
services,
we
have
basically
two
initiatives:
one,
we
proactively
bait
in
the
sewers
where
CCTV
cameras
during
our
routine
maintenance
regime
sees
evidence.
So
that's
one
area
and
then
the
second
area
we
have
protocols
in
place
for
any
evidence
in
parks
where
we
see
generally
around
litter
containers.
We
see
evidence
of
rats
and
we
have
measures
in
place
to
combat
in
when
we
see
rats
in
parks.
I
know.
N
That
Ottawa
Public
Health
has
developed
a
postcard
sized
information
bulletin
I
think
there's
five
points
that
homeowners
can
do
or
landlords
can
do
to
protect
their
properties
to
make
them
less
inviting
for
rats
to
set
up
shop
there.
But
I
would
really
like
to
see
a
much
more
proactive
wave
by
the
city
in
neighborhoods,
where
we've
had
rat
issues
and
I.
Don't
think
we're
doing
that.
N
O
Mayor
right
now,
we
in
the
Montreal
Road
project
for
the
first
time,
we've
actually
put
proactive
about
rating
into
the
tender
and
we're
just
receiving
those
tender
results
right
now
to
understand
what
the
cost
implications
are.
But
if
that's
council's
will
and
direction,
we
can
take
that
direction
for
those
additional
projects.
What.
N
Would
that
entail
I
mean
I,
don't
think
this
requires
councils
direction,
I
have
three
streets
and
two
neighborhoods
that
are
gonna
have
their
sewers
replaced
next
year
in
one
of
those
neighborhoods
we
have
a
rat
issue
and
the
fear
is
that
when
we
start
opening
up
these
lines
in
the
street,
we're
gonna
see
rats
in
part
of
this
neighborhood
that
we
don't
see
them
now.
Can
we
get
some
proactive
bathing
and
educational
fliers
in
these
communities
before
that
work?
It's
done.
Yes,.
A
Mr.
mayor
will
work
with
our
colleagues
in
infrastructure
services
to
get
a
plan
together
to
proactively
bake
those
sewers
that
are
adjacent
to
the
work.
That's
being
done
to
make
sure
that's
captured
and
our
I'll
work
with
our
health
and
bylaw
colleagues
as
well.
To
make
sure
that
we
get
some
education
out
in
the
neighborhood.
D
Thank
you
mr.
manera
and
I'd
like
to
follow
up
on
this
too.
We
had
an
earlier
inquiry
on
this
and
there
was
sorry
some
reporting
done
of
it
over
the
summer
and,
if
I
recall
correctly,
the
majority
of
where
the
complaints
are
coming
from
our
Ottawa
housing
areas,
so
I'm
wondering
does
this
new
bylaw
apply
Dodd
WA
housing?
Are
we
looking
at
using
this
to
pressure
Ottawa
housing
to
deal
with
the
Radice
you?
Why
can't
we
just
do
that
as
a
direction
to
them
to
step
up
rap
baiting
on
their
properties.
D
P

H

As
it
buys
that
secondary
dwelling
unit
and
coach
houses,
as
defined
in
a
zoning
bylaw,
are
not
commonplace
in
a
rural
area
of

city
with
the
proximity

and
thirty,
two
secondary
dwelling
unit
and
seven
coach
houses
have
been
established
in
the
rural
area
since
2001
and
were
as
a
result
and
described
well
to
consider
whether
greater
flexibility
should
be
allowed
for
short-term
rental
uses
of
secondary
dwelling
units
and
coach
houses
in
the
rural
areas
of
the
city
were
excluding
such

the
report
dated

23rd,

entitled

of
long
term,

accommodations
by
McLaren
municipal
consulting
recommends
that
the
city
initiate
a
two-year
pilot
landlord
registration
system
and
where,
as
a
landlord
registration
system,
would
allow
for
a
more
proactive
approach
to
enforcement
of
city
bylaws.
And
whereas
many
tenants
are
unaware
of
their
rights
and
responsibilities
as
ten
under
the
provision
of
Ottawa's
bylaws
and
whereas
various
forms
of
landlord
registration
already
exists.
In
multiple
municipalities
across
Ontario,
including
Toronto,
be

Q
That

implementing
the
preferred
option
to
the
city,
landlords
and
tenants,
including
the
expected
cost
of
the
preferred
option,
if
are
executed
under
a
revenue
neutral
model.
K
B
L
The
report
itself,
I
really
just
wanted
to
first
of
all,
extend
my
thanks
to
staff
who
I
know
have
dedicated
a
lot
of
energy
over
the
last
number
of
months.
On
this
you
know
going
through
this
process.
I
think
we've
all
learned
a
lot.
We
have
over
6,000
properties
listed
on
short-term
rental
platforms
in
Ottawa.
We
have
about
1300
of
those
which
appear
to
be
commercial
or
investment
properties,
I
think
as
we've
gone
through
this
and
the
many
discussions
that
have
been
had
over
the
last
number
of
weeks.
L
The
commercial
activities
and
residential
zones
we
need
to
recognize
is
illegal
currently
in
residential
neighborhoods,
and
these
proposed
properties
under
the
new
policy
would
also
be
prohibited.
The
policy
recommendations
that
have
been
put
forward
on
short-term
rentals
limit
short-term
rentals
to
primary
residences.
Only
this
is
supported
by
a
low-cost
permit
requirement
and
regulations
that
I
think
are
are
adequate
are
for
our
house,
our
property
managers
and
our
platforms,
and
it
makes
good
public
policy
I
think
with
the
objectives
of
ensuring
the
the
fabric
of
our
neighborhoods,
are
upheld.
L
Well
also,
looking
at
our
housing
stock
for
long-term
rentals
and
ensuring
that
that
does
not
further
become
deteriorate
or
become
compromised,
that
we
have
good
policy
directions
in
front
of
us.
This
is
proposed
as
a
three
year
trial
period,
and
this
does
give
us
the
opportunity
to
come
back
and
reassess
in
three
years
how
it's
working
for
us.
It's
also
consistent
with
provincial
housing
policy
and
local
planning
principles
that
have
been
identified
from
other
jurisdictions.
So
again,
I
thank
staff.
I
asked
my
colleagues
to
support
the
report.
R
R
We
are
still
treated
by
the
province
like
a
municipality
with
some
powers,
but
not
all
so.
We
carried
a
motion
at
the
community
and
protection
Services,
Committee
and
I'd
like
us
to
have
the
same
standards.
That
was
that
we
have
for
the
short-term
platforms
and
I
would
like
us
to
have
more
authorities
for
fines.
R
I
see
many
issues
with
that
and
regarding
the
resolution
period
to
I
mean
we
do
what
we
can
with
the
powers
that
we
have,
but
we
have
to
keep
going
so
that
the
people
that
are
not
complying
get
punitive
action,
because
some
landlords
still
do
that.
Some
groups
talk
about
the
importance
of
having
good
fine
structures,
but
we
have
to
target
the
issues
the
problems.
First,
it's
very
important.
J
Post
the
committee,
as
it
relates
to
the
staffs
legal
analysis
of
what
we
believe
to
be
our
limitations
under
the
Municipal
Act
for
short-term
rent
contracts
and
I
want
to
I
want
to
ensure
that
I
understand
that.
Are
we
saying
that
we've?
We
believe
that
a
short-term
environment
is
a
contract
and
if
we
believe
it
as
a
contract,
do
we
believe
that
that
is
an
interest
in
real
estate,
because
the
entire
legal
argument
is
that
we
can't
go
there
because
there's
an
interest
in
real
estate.
J
A
A
I
go
back
to
the
the
legal
comments
that
have
been
provided
in
the
past.
The
restriction
is
not
solely
with
respect.
It
does
not
deal
with
short
term
rentals
in
respect
of
licensing.
It
is
in
respect
of
the
limitations
imposed
under
the
regulations
under
the
Municipal
Act
that
relate
to
the
business,
essentially
the
business
of
real
estate
generally,
and
that
includes
rental
advertising
promotion,
any
of
those
kinds
of
things
and
that's
a
that's,
a
an
existing
restriction
that
the
the
province
has
left
in
place
in
the
regulations
on
the
Municipal
Act
I'm.
J
So
when
you
get
an
email
saying
that
we're
cutting
or
shutting
all
of
it
down,
it
is
false.
The
majority
who
are
using
those
platforms
will
continue
to
be
able
to
do
short-term
rentals.
As
for
the
rental
component
and
I
only
have
a
few
seconds
left,
we
really
need
to
pursue
the
province
on
the
fine
structure
on
the
authorities
on
their
response
timelines.
That's
where
the
next
battle
needs
to
go.
S
Madame
deputy
mayor
from
staffs
perspective
that
isn't,
that
is
something
we
will
look
at.
So
if
we
build
our
permit
regime,
as
is
proposed
in
the
report,
we
will
look
at
occupancy
standards.
We
will
look
at
what
is
casually
called
party
house
provisions
and
make
sure
that
there
are
regulations
and
permit
conditions
to
regulate
those.
S
Direction
did
not
provide
a
definition,
as
you
know,
so
what
I
am
what
I
am
assuming?
Is
that
we're
looking
at
occupancy
limits,
so
how
many
people
can
lawfully
occupy
that
particular
dwelling?
So,
as
you
know,
what
we're
proposing
as
part
of
our
permit
regime
we'll
be
coming
back
to
you
with
that
in
a
bylaw
is
to
uphold
the
current
occupancy
limits
that
are
in
the
property
standards.
Bylaw
now,
which
are
based
on
a
formula,
will
make
that
a
permit
requirement.
S
K
M
Thank
you
very
much.
First
of
all,
I
want
to
thank
staff
for
all
the
hard
work
they
put
into
all
this
study
on
own
accommodation,
review
for
rental
accommodation,
including
short
term
and
long
term,
in
particular.
The
short
term
I
believe
that
we've
struck
a
balance
in
terms
of
owner-occupied,
a
short
term
rental,
as
ghost
hotels
or
non
occupant,
short-term,
rentals
and
I
think
that's
really
important,
because
there
are
people
out
there
that
are
doing
short-term
rentals
that
are
owner-occupied
and
they're.
M
Following
the
rules,
they're
keeping
you
know,
keeping
it
safe
and
quiet,
and
that's
really
important
that
that
allowance
is
made
and
that
we
keep
out
the
ones
where
they're
not
supervised,
and
that's
where
the
problems
have
been
and
I
truly
appreciate.
All
the
work
in
terms
of
the
long
term,
rentals
and
inspections,
I
I,
will
be
supporting
the
motion
put
forward
by
mr.
M
Munna
park,
councillor
Menard
for
me,
because
I
believe
that
we
need
to
be
more
proactive
measures
on
things
like
inspections,
so
that
people
don't
have
to
keep
reporting,
and
we
also
need
a
mechanism
to
pay
for
by
law
officers,
because
it's
a
stress
on
our
honor
system.
Everything
is
about
by
law
and
sending
by
law
offers
to
officers
to
check
on
accommodations.
M
So
it
concerns
me
that
we're
getting
a
couple
more
but
I'm,
not
sure
if
that'll
be
able
to
keep
up
we're
already
stressing
out
our
bylaws
and
I
hope
that
we
can
be
more
proactive
in
terms
of
having
places
that
people
know
when
they
walk
in
that
are
suitable.
So
I
support
this
two-year
pilot
project
on
landlord
registration.
I
have
a
question
for
for
councillor
John
Terry.
If,
regarding
of
the
his
motion,
who
is
it
aimed
at?
Is
this
something
specific
for
in
terms
of
the
rural
areas?
H
Well,
what
what
we're
trying
to
do?
Counsel
here
in
a
rural
area?
As
you
know,
we
have
no
hotel,
no
motel,
no
other
place
for
accommodation
during
the
floods
and
the
tornado.
We
saw
a
great
benefit
of
some
of
our
resident
taken
other
resident
to
keep
their
kids
in
the
school
in
the
local
church
and
their
local
activities.
So
we
saw
a
benefit
from
having
that
option
available
for
them,
I'm,
not
sure
if
some
of
them
went
through
the
platform
of
air,
B&B
or
other,
but
we
know
quite
a
bit
a
resident.
H
B
N
Him,
thank
you.
Your
worship
and
I
too,
would
just
want
to
thank
staff
for
the
amount
of
work
that
went
into
this
study
and
report.
Echoing
counselor
flurries
earlier
comments,
the
the
consultations,
the
the
white
paper,
the
engagement
from
rev
reward
community
residents
and
community
associations.
This
is
obviously
a
multi
wart
issue
and
I
think
it
has
progressed
very
well,
so
I
will
be
supporting
them.
The
main
bits
of
this
motion,
certainly
the
shared
economy,
is,
is
forcing
municipalities
to
look
at
its
regulatory
regime
and
a
number
of
fronts.
N
We
certainly
saw
that
when
uber
arrived
in
2014
and
forced
the
city
after
a
few
years
to
look
at
the
entire
industry
and
come
out
with
some
very
strong
regulations-
and
this
is
no
different-
this
is
another
piece
of
the
shared
economy
that
just
basically
run
for
a
number
of
years
without
a
lot
of
rules
or
regulation
and
as
I
said
at
committee.
This
is
the
time
where
we
have
to
address
that,
and
sometimes
it's
some
of
the
bad
apples
that
require
municipalities
to
step
forward
and
create
a
regime.
N
You
know
ground
ground
rules
to
be
followed.
This
really
is
to
help
protect
communities
and
even
help
protect
people
who
are
staying
in
these
accommodations.
These
rental
accommodations
just
a
few
questions.
If
I
may,
first
staff
one
is
actually
an
email
that
members
of
council
received
today
and
it's
it's
along
the
lines
of
owner-occupied
duplexes
or
triplexes
and
I'll
just
read
directly
from
the
email.
N
The
question
it
says
in
its
recommendations,
staff
has
broadly
went
against
the
general
public
support
in
favor
of
allowing
Airbnb
zand
secondary
and
attached
units
and
owner-occupied
properties,
as
illustrated
in
the
mclaren
report.
Can
staff
just
again
touch
up
why
duplexes
and
other
shared
units
were
excluded.
S
Mr.
mayor,
the
policy
thinking
behind
that
is
that
lawful,
secondary
dwelling
units
were
created
with
the
planning
principle
in
mind
that
they
provide
available
long-term
housing
stock
for
diverse
segments
of
the
population,
and
on
that
basis
the
provinces
has
put
in
specific
rules
to
to
create
them
in
terms
of
keeping
in
pace
with
those
rules,
we
recommend
that
they
not
be
available
for
short-term
rental
and
that
they
continue
to
be
protected
for
that
type
of
housing.
So.
N
The
staff
argument
for
this
particular
dwelling
type
was
to
protect
rental
opportunities,
long
term
rental
opportunities,
very
good,
okay,
the
28-day
cap.
Can
you
just
talk
to
me
about
the
cap?
Why
28
days
many
months
are
31
days
in
length,
why
not
align
what
they
maximum
number
of
days
in
a
particular
month.
S
Mr.
mayor,
when
we
come
back
with
the
short-term
rental
bylaw,
we
will
have
a
fully
developed
definition
of
what
is
a
short
term
rental.
The
working
definition
now,
an
S
as
the
best
practice
in
other
jurisdictions,
is
along.
The
lines
of
anything
that
is
a
month
or
over
is
something
that
excuse
me
can
typically
look
be
looked
at
under
the
Residential
Tenancies
Act
for
for
residential
tendencies.
S
A
month
seems
to
be
the
logical
dividing
line
between
what
is
the
difference
between
someone
living
there
versus
what
is
a
transient
or
occasional
use
for
the
traveling
public,
for
tourists
or
for
guests
and
so
28
days
being
the
shortest
month
of
the
year.
So
28
days
are
over
is
a
logical,
logical
line
to
look
at
residential
tendencies.
Less
than
28
days
brings
us
into
the
area
of
something
that
could
be
transient
and
that
that
dividing
line
has
been
used
in
many
contexts.
I'm.
N
N
N
Very
well,
because
that
does
exist.
These
issues
are
prevalent
in
older
condo
organizations.
Just
on
the
Menard
notion
of
staff.
Could
talk
about
he's
not
asking
us
to
implement
something
he's
asking
for
some
research
and
work
to
be
done
in
a
report
to
come
back
through
I
guess
the
committee
could
staff
just
comment
on
what's
being
proposed
mayor.
P
We've
worked
respectfully
with
the
the
counselor
in
his
office
at
at
the
onset
we
feel
and
them
that's
why?
The
the
recommendations
in
the
report
don't
go
in
the
direction
that
the
councillor
is
proposing
when
we
analyzed
what
McClaren
did
in
their
consulting
you
know.
Over
88%
of
tenants
in
their
survey
said
that
landlords
made
repairs
when
they
were
requested.
Nine
out
of
ten
properties,
hadn't
had
a
property
standards
request
in
our
data
for
over
the
last
decade,
and
we
identified
was
a
very
small
amount
of
I.
P
Don't
want
to
use
a
word
delinquent,
but
a
very
small
amount
of
property
owners
seem
to
create
the
vast
majority
of
issues,
and
so
we
thought
the
approach.
Instead
of
taking
a
very
strong
regulatory
enforcement
approach
is
we
would
have
a
focused
approach
to
the
areas
where
we
thought
thought
there
were.
There
were
challenges
and
we
can
identify
those
rental
properties,
so
the
additional
staff
in
here
we
think
it's
a
balanced
approach
of
being
able
to
correct
those
challenges
in
the
community.
P
At
the
same
time,
not
overwhelming-
and
you
know
when
we
start
getting
into
the
analysis-
and
we
looked
at
what
other
jurisdictions
did-
the
report
has
four
different
types
of
scenarios
about.
You
know
Universal
licensing
and
the
expect
expection
regime
and
what
that
would
require,
and
it's
significant
resources
that
would
require
so
there
would
be
a
balance
there
that
we'd
have
to
find
costs
to
offset
that
and
then
that
cost
ultimately
would
be
passed
on
to
renters
and
again
we'd
be
increasing
costs
over
all
of
the
stocks.
P
So
again,
like
this
entire
report
and
there's
pros
and
cons
to
both
sides,
our
logic
was
that
we
would.
We
would
prefer
to
to
attempt
this
over
the
next
three
years,
analyze
what
would
be
going
on
and
then
come
back
and
report
if
that's
not
effective
and
I,
think
the
counselors
trying
to
get
there.
But
there
may
be
some
challenges
with
regards
to
that.
But
we
can
talk
to
the
motion
more
in
detail
and
comes
forward.
But
broadly
that's
our
approach.
The
data
didn't
support
a
very
strong
regulatory
regime
at
this
point
in.
N
Speaking
with
your
colleagues
in
other
municipalities
who
have
actually
gone
further
in
this
regard,
what's
happened
in
those
municipalities.
That's
different
than
Ottawa
I
would
assume
that
we
have
very
similar
issues
impacting
our
tenants,
the
same
type
of
absentee
landlords
I'm,
not
speaking
in
general
terms,
with
the
same
type
of
issue.
So
why
would
they
have
done
something?
And
when
we
have
the
opportunity
just
to
ask
you
for
a
report,
why
we
wouldn't
do
that.
S
S
It
is
funded
in
a
very
particular
way,
partly
by
the
tax
rule,
for
example,
and
it
sets
out
an
inspection
regime
over
time.
We
don't
have
that
same
landscape
here
and,
as
mr.
de
Monte
just
said,
we
have
a
very
small
percentage
of
rental
properties
that
are
causing
the
biggest
amount
of
problems
in
other
jurisdictions.
We've
seen
landlord
regulations
developed
around
specific
geographic
areas,
for
example
around
post-secondary
institutions.
S
Again
we
don't
have
that
type
of
landscape
here,
so
those
regimes
are
front-heavy
in
the
sense
of
costs
for
inspections,
and
it
is
not
something
that
we
feel
the
data
justifies
here,
because
eventually
it
requires
more
resources
and
the
cost
could
be
passed
on
to
the
tenant.
So
it's
not
comparing
apples
to
apples
for
lack
of
a
better
way
to
say
it.
It's
it's
a
different
landscape,
okay,.
N
B
E
Thank
You
mr.
mayor
on
short-term
accommodation,
I
have
to
agree
with
many
of
my
colleagues
residents
constituents
who
I've
suppose
look
into
since
I've
taken
office.
That
and
and
I
fully
agree
that
residents
are
completely
fatigued
with
commercial
operations
in
residential
zones
and
they're
also
concerned
about
the
appropriateness
of
the
shared
economy,
short-term
rental
accommodation
platforms
that
have
been
put
in
place
that
create
scarcity.
E
So
because
of
these
factors,
and
some
of
the
consultation
that
I've
had
with
community
members,
I
will
be
in
favor
of
the
report
on
long
term
accommodation,
I,
support
and
have
seconded
councillor
Menards
motion,
because
I
believe
a
feasibility
review
of
a
two-year
landlord
registration
pilot
is
warranted
to
determine
the
viability
of
a
more
proactive
approach
to
enforce
city
bylaws.
Concerning
property
standards.
E
Additionally,
the
problems
that
many
of
these
residents
experience
cannot
easily
be
addressed
through
bylaw
enforcement
action,
because
currently
the
property
standard
bylaw
has
more
procedural
steps
and
delays
than
most
bylaws.
In
addition
to
previous
notice,
notices
of
violation,
often
being
unenforceable,
such
a
situation
has
left
many
of
our
most
vulnerable
residents
even
more
vulnerable.
Consequently,
low-income
tenants
have
come
to
me
and
have
asked
us
to
implement
a
landlord
licensing
program
to
make
landlords
more
accountable
for
their
actions.
E
They
want
property
owners
to
be
given
a
list
of
minimum
property
standards
that
they
would
be
required
to
meet.
In
addition
to
mechanisms
to
ensure
property
standards
are
met
and
maintained,
and
they
want
consequential
financial
penalties
for
property
owners
that
are
non-compliant
with
some
of
the
changes
proposed
to
long
term
accommodation.
In
this
city
we
will
see
some
enhancements
to
property,
Rhian
spec
ssin
for
landlords,
but
tenants
are
asking
for
further
action
at
a
bare
minimum.
They
want
a
registration
program
with
detailed
information
about
properties
along
with
outstanding
work
order
and
violation
data.
E
K
A
I
just
wanted
and
I
will
be
supporting
it,
because
I
think
it's
important
that
we
we
show
the
differences
of
our
community
and
that
there's
a
different
kind
of
need
in
those
particular
areas.
But
I
did
want
to
understand.
I
know
the
province
was
quite
clear
through
l-pod
in
respect
to
Toronto's,
bylaws
and
I
want
to
ensure
that,
if
we're
going
to
pass
this
motion
that
we
would
have
a
very
legally
defensible
position.
A
Mr.
mayor
legal
snap
have
looked
at
this,
it
is
legal
staffs
considered
view
that
the
proposed
distinction
is
legally
defensible.
Could
it
be
challenged?
Of
course
it's
always
open
to
people
to
challenge
the
decisions
of
the
city
and
City
Council,
but
that
the
distinction
that's
drawn
in
the
motion
is
a
legally
defensible
one
perfect
thanks
thanks.
Q
T
Thank
You
mr.
mayor
and
I
just
want
to,
of
course
thank
our
colleagues
and
the
people
that
have
been
working
on
the
report.
I
know
mr.
Dumont
is
team
Valerie
and
the
chair
of
CPS
and
many
other
Department
that
working
with
us
I
just
want
to
quickly
take
a
moment
to
identify
and
talk
a
little
bit
about
councillor.
Shanthi
Rihanna
is
motion.
We
really
in
support
of
the
report.
We
really
want
to
make
sure
to
see
that
these
rules
and
policies
are
implemented,
but
sometimes
we
are
while
we're
doing
some
policy.
T
Sometimes
we
try
to
fix
something
we
break
something
else
and
in
rural
area
right
now
we
do
not
have
the
issues
of
parking
we
do
not
have
what's
going
on
and
other
areas
in
this
city
and
I
I
always
be
careful
and
cautious,
and
when
I
talk
about
this
city,
but
as
we
all
know
that
we
have
three
different
community,
we
have
suburbia,
we
have
urban,
then
we
have
rural.
But
for
us
we
have
a
lot
of
farm
homes
that
we
have
a
lots
of
features
in
our
rural
area.
T
So
we
want
to
make
sure
we
really
don't
impact
the
whole
city
with
this
motion
and
that's
why
we've
carefully
thread
around
it
and
we
work
very
closely
with
our
legal
department
with
our
by
law
with
our
CPS
chair.
Jana
I
want
to
thank
her
very
much
for
reporting
all
the
effort
and
mr.
de
Monte,
so
I.
Really,
we
really
were
not
asking
much
it's,
but
it's
really
the
consideration
and
the
amount
is
very
minimum.
T
It's
not
going
to
impact
anybody,
but
also
we
need
to
be
careful
when
implant
policy
you
don't
want
to
actually
one
size
doesn't
fit
all,
and
we
also
what
I
want
to
create
an
issue
where
there
is
no
issue
so
I
encourage
you
to
help
us
and
to
help
and
support
this
motion,
because
really
we
are
in
support
of
them
the
report
and
we
really
want
to
make
sure
that
the
Airbnb
has
been
really
policy
properly
and
we
have
a
good
rules
to
be
able
to
implement
those
in
a
suburban
and
urban.
Thank
you.
Thank.
I
Very
much
mr.
mayor
I
want
to
I
want
to
thank
staff.
This
is
something
that
that
I've
been
watching
very
carefully
and
working
with
staff
on
it's
been
a
number
of
issues.
Around
short-term
rentals
in
my
ward
and
staff
has
been
very
sensitive
to
those
issues,
I
think
in
their
recommendations
and
has
really
listened
to
the
public.
So
I
want
to
thank
them
for
that.
I
I
also
want
to
thank
my
colleague,
Jenna
suds,
who,
who
chaired
a
long
and
and
and
at
times
intense
meeting
in
terms
of
people's
experiences
with
with
this
this
kind
of
approach
and
in
their
neighborhood.
So
I
want
to
thank
for
that
as
well,
and
and
I
also
want
to
thank
councilors
LC
and
cherry
and
de
Roos
I
was
a
little
nervous
when
I
first
saw
their
motion
the
earlier
draft.
I
I
Opening
the
door
for
other
types
of
duplexes
triplexes.
We
had
that
discussion
fully
a
committee,
and
it
was
something
that
people
hold
very
strong
opinions
over
and
rightfully
so
I
think
in
terms
of
the
use
of
residential
properties
in
suburban
areas
in
urban
areas,
and
so
I'm
glad
to
see
the
current
wording,
which
makes
it
very
clear
what
what
is
meant
by
the
term
rural
and
that
this
motion
does
not
allow
that
that
that
creep.
I
If
you
will
into
suburban
areas
and
more
urban
areas,
because
that's
something
while
it
might
fit
in
the
rurals
doesn't
fit
from
what
we're
hearing
from
our
residents
doesn't
fit
in
the
urban
and
suburban
environment.
So
I
thank
my
colleagues
for
listening
to
that
and
making
those
amendments
to
their
earlier
draft.
I
appreciate
that
it
recognizes
that
not
necessarily
one
size
fits
all
in
this
city
and
but
is
again
as
with
the
staff
recommendations,
I
think
sensitive
to
the
concerns
of
urban
and
suburban
councillors
on
on
the
issue
of
expanding
short-term
rentals.
I
F
F
I
said
lots
at
that
ten
and
a
half
hour
meeting,
as
you
can
well
imagine,
had
all
my
questions
answered,
but
just
on
councillor
el
sentries
motion,
which
I
support
in
principle,
but
we
know
that-
and
you
know
great
news
since,
since
we
passed
this
at
committee
that
the
l-pad
appeal
in
Toronto
has
been
resolved
and
it
does,
you
know
indicate
that
the
direction
that
we
are
headed
is
it's
the
right
time.
It's
the
right
time
to
do
it.
It
was
upheld
by
by
the
ALP
at
so,
but
I.
F
A
A
As
mr.
mayor
as
the
city
solicitor
said
earlier,
there's
always
the
potential
for
an
appeal.
The
same
provisions
under
the
Planning
Act
apply
to
temporary
use
zoning
bylaws
as
applied
to
permanent
zoning
bylaws.
However,
again
as
the
city
solicitor
indicated,
in
my
opinion,
there
is
a
meaningful
distinction
recognized
in
our
official
plan
between
the
rural
area
and
the
urban
area
and.
N
F
Q
Very
much
just
just
on
the
question.
The
the
motion,
as
it
reads,
is
that
staff
would
consider
allowing
secondary
dwelling
units
and
coach
houses
in
the
rural
areas,
whether
using
for
short
term
rentals,
regardless
of
occupancy.
So
you're,
going
to
consider
this
and
come
back
with
the
associated
bylaw
is
that
is
that
what
this
motion
is
directing
you
to
do,
and
do
you
support
that
line
of
direction?
That.
P
Q
I'll
be
supporting
that
then,
as
well.
Just
on
wrap-up
mayor
on
the
landlord
registration
I
want
to
be
clear.
The
motion
is
not
saying
to
start
a
pilot.
That's
not
what
we're
saying
we're
saying
to
come
back
with
an
option:
the
feasibility
around
a
program.
What
it
would
look
like
and
there's
been
a
lot
of
work
put
into
this
by
McLaren,
municipal,
consulting
and
others
that
we
shouldn't
just
lose.
We
should
make
sure
we're
taking
that
information
and
looking
at
what
a
pilot
project
would
actually
look
like
and
at
that
time
make
a
decision.
Q
We
haven't
done
that
work
yet
so
it's
I
want
to
be
really
clear.
What
the
this
is.
I
also
checked
with
staff
about
the
bylaw
work
plan.
This
doesn't
if
this
piece
of
work
doesn't
affect
it.
If
we
made
a
decision
then
to
go
forward,
that's
when
we
would
have
the
discussion
around
the
timing
and
effect
there
they've
also
confirmed
they
would
like
us
to
come
back
q3
of
2020,
and
the
motion
accommodates
the
timing
for
them
to
come
back
in
q3
of
2020.
Q
Q
Many
of
them
are
also
unaware
of
the
provisions
of
Ottawa's
bylaws
in
some
cases,
and
it
shouldn't
be
up
to
them
to
enforce
those
rights
and
provisions,
but
even
for
those
that
are
aware,
it
often
doesn't
make
sense
for
them
to
to
report
those
those
provisions
because
of
the
negative
consequences.
So
the
the
landlord
tenant
relationship
is
an
asymmetrical
one.
Q
It
leads
to
tenants
not
bothering
to
report
problems
on
the
bylaw,
because
it's
a
risk
for
them
to
do
so
in
many
cases,
and
it's
why
I
think
we
should
be
taking
more
responsibility
for
our
own
regulatory
enforcement.
I
wanted
to
speak
to
the
cost.
To
tenants.
We've
heard
that
raised
and
the
cost
of
tenants
I
think
there's
problems,
there's
problems
with
that
argument.
We
have
an
$11
a
year
registration
per
unit,
which
is
highly
reasonable.
Q
It's
also
within
the
currently
allowable
rent
control
increases
in
Ontario
for
the
vast
majority
of
units
in
Ottawa,
even
if
there
is
a
small
cost
increase
to
tenants.
Even
if
we
take
that
argument
through
and
say,
ok,
we'll
agree,
there
is
some
small
cost
to
tenants.
The
quality
of
rentals
and
landlords
will
improve,
and
so
some
good
landlords
are
saying.
Yeah
I'm
advocating
for
this
I
want
to
see
this
happen
and
when
tenants
are
wrongfully
pushed
out
of
their
homes,
we
actually
see
rent
increasing
more
than
it
would
otherwise.
Q
So
so
the
effect
of
not
doing
this
is
that
there
are
effects
for
tenants
all
across
the
city
in
increases
in
rent
when
they're,
not
when
they're
wrongfully,
evicted,
I
think
there's
more
important
context
as
well,
so
there's
much
more
trivial
matters
that
require
registration
or
licensing
so
going
fishing.
You
have
to
register
to
go
fishing,
you
have
to
have
a
license.
You
have
to
have
a
license
for
your
dogs
and
cat
or
register
them
with
the
city.
Q
We
require
it
for
taxis
and
ptc
drivers
we're
soon
gonna
require
it
for
Airbnb
hosts
and
so
there's
a
bunch
of
professions
that
we
do
this
for
as
well
around
engineers
and
nurses,
so
some
registration
for
those
who
house
others
is
likely
reasonable.
Given
that
we
do
this
for
things
like
fishing
and
dogs
and
cats,
you
know
the
other
possible
benefits
to
the
the
land.
Loretta
stration
would
also
give
the
city
a
huge
opportunity
to
ensure
that
its
Building
Code
and
zoning
bylaws
are
being
forced,
which
currently
many
of
them
are
not
in
the
city's.
Q
Relevant
enforcement
officers
often
lack
the
ability
to
enter
units
to
do
a
proper
investigation.
So
this
would
give
the
city
an
opportunity
to
ensure
that
our
standards
are
being
complied
with
and
ensure
the
safety
and
well-being
of
our
city's
renters.
It
doesn't
mean
that
everything's
gonna
be
inspected.
We
can
do
what
staff
are
saying
to
look
at
individual
problem
properties,
that's
what
this
would
help
with,
and
so
we've
seen
some
successes
on
this
program
in
Toronto
through
rent
safe.
Q
Yes,
in
high-rises,
we
have
high-rises
here
as
well,
not
as
many,
but
we
have
them,
and
let's
not
forget
that
our
consultant,
who
we
hired
to
do
this
work,
has
said.
Put
this
in
place,
we're
not
even
saying
that
we're
just
saying
look
at
the
option
of
putting
it
in
place,
which
staff
have
said
they
can
accommodate
within
existing
budgets.
So
I
urge
you
to
vote
in
favor
of
this
motion.
Let's
not
let
this
go
by
the
wayside.
There's
a
lot
of
good
work.
That's
been
put
into
this.
Q
H
I'll
make
it
short
and
sweet
mr.
mayor
I
just
want
to
take
this
opportunity
to
thank
our
staff
for
helping
out
drafting
this
motion.
I
want
to
really
sincere
thank
you
to
the
general
manager
of
planning
infrastructure
economic
develop
to
to
temporary
you.
The
bylaw
for
the
short-term
rental
use
in
a
residential
area
so
also
be
able
to
define
the
rural
to
satisfy
my
colic
egg
lie.
Who
had
concern
about
this
earlier,
so
I'm
grateful
for
all
the
support
of
all
of
you,
and
especially
my
colleague,
George
de
Roos.
B
Thank
you.
Okay,
I
have
a
couple
of
comments.
First
of
all,
I
I
echo.
My
colleagues
sentiments
to
thank
very
much
councillor
suds
and
members
of
CPS.
That
was
a
long
day.
Indeed,
when
people
buy
a
home
in
a
residential
neighborhood,
they
expect
fellow
residential
dwellers,
not
a
ghost
hotel,
not
a
party
place.
B
They
don't
expect
to
see
a
constant
turnover
of
people
coming
in
and
out
of
the
house
all
days
of
the
evening,
I
think
when
Airbnb
first
started,
the
premise
was
pretty
clear:
if
you're
away
for
a
couple
weekends
a
year,
you
rent
out
your
place
and
you
in
essence
have
some
skin
in
the
game,
because
you
don't
want
your
home
rat
by
people.
Who've
come
from
another
city
or
another
part
of
the
world
and
obviously
what's
evolved,
is
that
this
has
become
a
big
moneymaker
for
a
lot
of
people.
B
They
buy
units,
often
condominiums
townhouses,
don't
even
live
in
the
city
in
many
instances
and
then
end
up
having
a
a
tenant,
that's
a
bad
tenant
and
disrupting
the
well-being
and
the
calmness
of
living
in
a
residential
neighborhood.
So
I
support
to
the
report.
I
thank
councillors.
El
Shan
Tyrion
de
Roos
for
their
amendment,
because
once
again
it
shows
that
our
council
understands
we
have
a
large
piece
of
geography
and
in
the
rural
areas,
for
instance,
there
are
no
hotels.
B
So
when
there
was
the
flooding
issues,
people
open
up
their
homes
and
some
voluntarily
others
to
recoup
some
costs
and
I.
Think
that's
a
good
sensible
motion
on
the
councillor
Minard
King
motion
as
well
as
item
5
in
the
report,
which
is
asking
me
to
write
to
impose
a
system
of
licenses.
I'll
speak
to
both
the
registration
in
the
license
system.
I
do
not
support
this
and
I
strongly
urge
you
not
to
go
down
the
path.
B
We
have
a
situation
where
we're
asking
staff
to
work
on
a
new
program
without
any
clear
direction
from
counsel
and
to
do
so
is
putting
the
cart
before
the
horse.
So
here's
the
problem
with
it.
In
the
staff
report
pages
35
to
37,
it
was
very
clear
that
to
go
about
having
a
registration
and/or,
a
licensing
system
is
expensive
to
the
city
but,
most
importantly
to
the
tenants
so
scenario.
B
A
universal
licensing
and
inspection
inspecting
more
than
a
hundred
and
thirty
three
thousand
units,
which
is
what
we
have
in
Ottawa,
would,
on
an
annual
basis,
require
a
hundred
and
eighty
two
full-time
equivalent
positions
and
resulting
an
expected
monthly
rent
increases
of
twenty
five
dollars
a
month.
I,
don't
think
many
people
were
told
that
and
then
in
the
same
report,
it
goes
on
to
say
that
the
additional
cost
for
residents
is
of
concern
to
staff,
based
on
the
thirty
percent
cost
to
income
ratio
for
housing.
B
So,
there's
a
cost
to
this
a
cost
to
register
a
cost
to
license
and
that
cost
would
be
borne
by
the
tenants
and
some
of
the
people
who
are
least
likely
to
have
an
extra
722
1,150
are
not
going
to
be
impressed
with
us
going
down
the
path
of
creating
another
bureaucracy
with
hundreds
of
people
inspecting
and
licensing.
We
have
provisions
they're,
not
perfect,
but
I
can
tell
you,
as
a
former
minister
of
municipal
affairs
and
housing.
B
Our
laws,
both
municipal
and
provincial
II,
are
some
of
the
best
in
the
country,
including
our
property
standards,
bylaw,
fire
inspections,
LTB
and
the
like.
So
on
the
Menard
King
motion,
if
you
are
interested
in
creating
more
bureaucracy
and
putting
our
staff
in
a
position
to
come
back
and
tell
us,
this
is
exactly
what's
already
in
the
report
or
if
increasing
rents
to
people
in
the
lowest
I
suggest
you
vote
for
that.
If
not,
please
say
no
to
this
motion
to
create
another
level
of
bureaucracy
with
more
registration
and
on
the
licensing
aspect.
B
K
B
You
so
so
I'm
not
finished
yet.
So
the
reality
is
that
there
is
a
cost
to
implementing
a
new
licensing
regime
or
a
registration
regime
and
I
would
encourage
you.
Please
do
not
burden
those
men
and
women
who
are
working
hard
to
pay
their
rent
by
bringing
forward
a
new
bureaucracy
that
will
cost
them
hundreds
of
dollars
a
year.
I,
don't
think
that's
fair
to
the
lowest
income
residents
in
our
community
on
a
point
of
order.
Councillor

Q
Thanks
thanks
Mara
I'm,
actually
just
gonna
comment
on
this
and
speak
to
to
the
concern
I
had
so
I'm
in
favor
of
the
lulav
motion
on
this
and
I'm
gonna
be
voting
for
that
today
and
I'd
urge
all
my
colleagues
to
do
the
same.
Let
me
just
explain
what
I'm,
what
I'm,
trying
to
ensure
and
I've
had
good
conversation
with
colleagues
around
the
table,
but
I
want
us
to
be
aware.
There's
there's
two
audits
directly
related
to
our
decision
on
the
operations
of
Lansdowne
Park.
Q
One
is
a
follow
up
on
the
management
and
oversight
of
the
park
and
the
other
is
on
the
waterfall,
the
Auditor
General's
undertaking
both
of
these
audits
at
the
same
time
and
they're
underway.
Right
now,
the
motion
I
was
proposing
would
have
allowed
mr.
Shen
in
the
city
to
move
forward
with
consultations
immediately
and
discussions
with
sake.
It
would
not
have
delayed
their
work.
In
other
words,
it
was
perfectly
in
line
with
the
lulav
motion.
Q
But
the
audits
obviously
take
their
own
life
when,
when
they're
occurring
so
I've
spoken
with
colleagues
around
the
table
and
members
of
the
Audit
Committee
about
this
item,
it
seems
we
have
consensus
that
if
we
hit
May
or
June-
and
we
still
don't
have
that
information
from
the
AG
that
we'd
asked
them.
How
many
weeks
would
be
required
and
ensure
that
this
important
information
comes
to
us
before
a
final
decision.
So
with
that
assurance,
I
feel
comfortable
pulling
the
draft
motion
I
had
prepared
for
today
and
will
be
involved.
B
G
B
If
we
hold
off
on
that,
because
I
neglected
to
come
back
to
item
17
and
councillor
Tierney
and
I
have
a
motion.
He,
as
you
know,
as
our
represent
of
the
FCM,
and
they
have
a
meeting
with
the
leader
of
the
NDP
in
ten
minutes.
So
I
was
wondering
with
concurrence
of
council.
We
could
deal
with
councillor
Tierney's
motion
with
respect
to
us
bidding
on
the
FCM
bid,
agreed
suspension
of
the
rules
on
the
Tierney
Watson
motion,
re
FCM
bid
on
suspension
greed,
councillor
tyranny.
I
Great
Thank
You
colleagues,
as
you
know,
a
couple
of
years
ago
we
had
the
FCM
AGM
held
here
in
Ottawa
with
great
success.
It
brought
much
tourism,
many
people
to
our
community
and
I'll
dispense
with
reading
the
very
long
written
up,
well-written
motion
and
just
we're
going
to
make
the
the
we
want
to
bid
for
the
2020
3,
2024,
F,
cmeg
I'm.
I
Here
again
in
Ottawa
and
just
of
note,
the
actual
board
members
and
our
meeting
in
the
city
right
now
and
as
the
mare
is
mentioned,
I'll
be
meeting
with
all
the
leaders
of
the
parties
over
the
next
two
days.
This
is
great
for
us
as
a
city,
because
it
gives
us
the
opportunity
to
really
explain
municipal
issues
to
our
leaders.
I
So
therefore
it
be
resolved
that
council
prove
the
motion
as
a
measure
of
the
city's
support
in
being
the
host
city
for
the
either
the
2023
or
2024
FCM
annual
conference
and
trade
show
and
be
a
further
resolved
that
the
city
grants
authority
to
Ottawa
tourism
to
bid
on
the
city's
behalf
for
the
2023
2024,
FCM
annual
conference
and
trade.
So,
in
consultation
with
the
city's
economic
and
development
services
laid.
B
K
Mr.
mayor,
thank
you,
it
has
to
do
with
this.
Recommendation
from
from
staff
is
meant
to
decrease
the
proportion
of
single-family
dwellings
and
new
residential
neighborhoods,
which
would
mean
that
we
would
increase
the
multi-unit
units
that
are
going
to
be
built
and,
on
the
face
of
it,
I
understand
why
we
are
doing
this.
Intensification
is
required
out
in
in
outlying
areas
of
the
city,
but
my
question
has
to
do
with
the
problems
that
arise
with
this.
K
Ottawa
is
a
vast
city
and
our
busing
cannot
accommodate
everyone
to
get
exactly
where
they
want
to
go.
So
people
are
buying
these
residential
units
and
they
have
one
two
cars.
Sometimes
three
cars,
so
the
question
I
want
to
say
is:
do
we
have
a
plan
to
recognize
what
we
are
doing
in
the
outlying
areas
of
the
city
and
I?
Ask
this,
because
when
we
don't
accommodate
vehicles
and
we're
not
we're
never
going
to
eliminate
them
in
the
outlying
areas,
specifically
because
of
the
reasons
I'm
talking
about,
we
incur
cost
continual
cost
to
the
city.
K
With
going
out
to
address
complaints,
parking
going
on
in
ticketing
vehicles,
emergency
vehicles
often
can't
get
through
streets
where
they're
parking
on
both
sides
of
the
street.
We
know
that
snow
plows
have
to
go
back
continually.
There
is
an
a
constant
and
evolving
cost
to
the
city
all
the
time
because
of
what
we're
allowing
so
not
to
not
to
mention
the
environment,
that's
being
created,
which
it's
not
pleasant,
to
drive
down
these
new
residential
neighborhoods.
So
mr.
Willis
I'm
asking
do
we
are
we
trying?
K
O
Mr.
mayor
would
certainly,
as
we
get
more
intensive,
neighborhoods
built
in
suburban
outlying
areas,
we
are
seeing
these
problems
and
we've
actually
in
the
process
of
releasing
a.
It,
has
actually
already
been
released.
A
discussion
papers
been
released
to
the
industry
on
a
parking
evaluation
tool
under
our
building
better
and
smarter
suburbs
project.
What
that
does
is
what
we've
observed
when
we
look
at
these
issues
is
when
you
get
too
much
of
a
clustering
of
the
same
unit
type
on
the
same
street.
O
This
is
where
the
problems
get,
but
if
there
was
a
better
mix
of
walk-ups
and
singles
in
the
area,
and
they
were
actually
deployed
a
little
bit
differently,
we
don't
see
the
same
parking
on
street
parking
problems.
So
what
we're
trying
to
do
in
new
developments
is
try
to
avoid
a
heavy
clustering
of
all
the
same
unit
types
in
the
same
area
on
the
same
street.
To
do
that.
So
that's
what
the
new
tool
is
meant
to
address.
O
O
Mr.
merry,
in
some
instances
when
they're
doing
that,
they're,
not
actually
in
conformity
with
city,
zoning
bylaws
and
we
do
to
deal
with
this
through
and
for
we
do
understand
in
areas
that
don't
yet
have
the
higher
order
transit.
This
is
a
risk,
but
we
also
run
the
opposite
risk
that
if
we
encourage
very,
very
large
parking
deployment,
these
areas
that
use
up
create
a
lot
of
hard
surfaces
in
areas.
We
intend
to
provide
higher
order,
transit
to
we're
kind
of
defeating
ourselves
and
supporting
our
transit,
oriented
development
approach
and.
K
I
totally
understand
why
we
are
supporting
transit,
oriented
development,
but
the
reality
is
talking
to
people.
They
need
their
vehicles
just
to
get
around
this
city,
because
the
buses
can't
take
them
everywhere.
They
want
to
go
so
I
mean
I,
think
we
have
to
start
seriously
addressing
as
this
issue
parking
is
going
to
be
an
ongoing
problem,
and
I
would
like
to
see
us
as
a
city
at
address
it
seriously
with
the
developers
that
developed
the
cot.
The
way
that
we
develop
is
causing
all
kinds
of
social
issues
and
operational
issues,
so.
O
Mr.
mayor
has
indicated
we
have
this
brand-new
tool.
This
new
tool
is
really
meant
to
address
it.
Based
on
the
observed
patterns,
we
did
a
fair
bit
of
work
to
understand
which
streets
we
were
seeing
these
problems
on
and
we
will
be
applying
it
in
new
plans
of
subdivision
we're
piloting
it.
We
will
continue
to
review
it.
We
will
continue
to
report
to
Planning
Committee
on
our
success
on
addressing
the
issue,
but
it
is
a
fine
balance.
You
know
we
are.
O
D
Thank
You
mr.
mayor
I
just
want
to
clarify
a
couple
of
things
that
my
colleague
just
said
that
I,
don't
think
is
factual.
We
are
not
approving
houses
with
barely
room
for
one
car.
The
standard
is
there's
a
most
suburban
houses,
there's
a
garage
and
at
least
parking
for
one
car,
often
more
than
that.
The
issue
that
she
raises
does
exist.
We
don't
need
to
exaggerate
it.
D
What
extra
claims
like
that
that
we're
doing
something
we
shouldn't
have
done
last
irma
council,
we
set
in
specific
rules
on
how,
especially
in
suburban
areas,
they
could
expand
their
driveway.
There
still
has
to
be
50%
green
space,
so,
as
mr.
Willis
correctly
pointed
out
that,
if
you
see
someone
paving
over
their
front
yard,
which
does
happen,
it's
illegal,
you
can
call
by
law
by
I
lived
this
in
my
own
area
by
law
will
come
in
and
have
them
dig
it
up.
So
there
is
already
a
solution
on
the
books
for
this.
D
D
I
encourage
the
new
members
of
council
to
read
that
report,
because
it
represents
about
two
years
worth
of
work
that
counts
are
harder
and
I
did
was
a
lot
of
stakeholders
involved
to
actually
come
out
with
how
we
can
address
these
issues,
so
the
new
developments
will
be
built
under
those
guidelines.
One
last
point:
mr.
mayor
is
under
traffic
calming
programs
and
working
in
conjunction
with
Kevyn
Wiley's
folks.
You
can
designate
no
parking
on
suburban
streets
in
certain
areas.
D
If
there's
cars
I
know
I've
done
it
I
think
every
other
suburban
councillor,
with
the
exception
of
my
colleague,
I
guess,
has
done
not
where
we've
gone
out
and
worked
with
our
community
associations
and
residents
to
astley
sign
the
streets
to
avoid
those
problems,
because
the
last
thing
we
want
is
on
any
street
in
our
city,
whether
it
be
suburban,
rural
or
urban,
that
a
firetruck
can't
get
there
or
an
ambulance.
If
it's
needed
so
I,
don't
think
we
need
to
exaggerate
the
problem.
There
is
a
problem.
We
have
tools
in
place
to
fix
it.
I
O
A
Thank
you
for
minister
mr.
mayor
I
agree
with
councilor
who
believe
that
we
should
work
on
a
case-by-case
basis,
which
is
why
I'm
gonna
be
voting
against
this.
This
takes
all
of
our
leverage
away
from
the
builders.
They
often
apply
right
now
for
this
density,
and
it's
often
approved
and
it's
approved
through
negotiation.
It's
approved
for
through
additional
community
benefit
it's
getting
the
park
faster,
it's
getting
a
bigger
park
with
more
money
put
into
it.
A
It's
getting
intersection,
modifications
or
speed
reduction
whatever
it
is
that
you're
asking
for
as
part
of
that
process,
you're
getting
in
exchange
for
the
higher
densities.
I
would
urge
everyone
to
consider
that
in
the
suburbs,
do
you
want
the
kind
of
fights
to
get
the
things
out
of
the
builders
that
we
see
our
urban
colleagues
go
through
in
exchange
for
height
or
do
you
and
you
want
to
not
be
able
to
have
that
conversation
with
your
builder?
A
G
Think
my
colleagues
are
making
mountains
out
of
molehills
in
terms
of
this
report.
The
place
to
have
the
discussion
about
minimum
densities
in
the
mix
of
housing
is
through
the
upcoming
Official
Plan
process,
which
I
know
the
Planning
Department
is
working
on.
This
is
a
report
that
formalizes
a
number
of
OPA
agreements
and
subdivision
agreements
that
have
already
occurred,
and
it
just
formalizes
it
to
give
consistency
to
the
policies
into
the
you
know.
G
B
On
the
report
carried
the
clerk's
sorry,
counselor
Mian
is
dissenting
in
councilor
bleh,
the
clerk's
office
indicated
they're,
going
to
look
at
recommendation
5
with
respect
to
asking
me
to
write
to
the
minister
to
see
if
there
is
a
discrepancy
between
what
was
approved
at
Council,
our
committee
and
what
was
brought
forward
at
Council
and
they'll
back
to
us
as
I
correct
okay.
So
we
already
had
councillor
Gower
move
his
motion
on
motion
to
adopt
reports
carried
note,
motions
of
which
notice
have
been
given
previously
con
CA
Parkington
up.
We
pal
conceal
a
counter
Brockington.
B
N
Thank
you,
your
worship,
just
a
motion
that
we've
dealt
with
in
the
past
in
some
communities
that
are
about
to
undergo
infrastructure
renewal.
This
is
actually
one
of
the
two
communities
I
referenced
earlier
today
with
respect
to
rats.
This
just
ensures
that
driveways,
driveway
widths
are
returned
back
to
the
original
state.
Once
this
work
is
done
again,
there's
precedents
that
we've
done
this
in
the
past,
there
have
been
no
complaints
issued
or
called
in
thus
far
and
I'm,
asking
for
Council's
support.
Today,
okay,.
B
Anyone
else
on
this
item
on
the
motion
carried
at
update,
motions
requiring
suspension
of
the
rules
of
procedure.
Councillor
mckinney,
please
'once.
Sorry,
on
suspension
carried
on
the
motion
