Description
Planning Committee - 6 December 2021
A
All
right,
I
think
we
have.
We
have
enough
to
get
started
absolutely.
Okay,
welcome
everyone.
This
is
our
planning
committee
meeting
for
monday
december
6..
We
have
no
regrets
today,
although
councilor
brockington
has,
let
me
know,
he's
running
a
little
bit
late
eric
can
we
do
a
roll
call
just
to
confirm
that
we
have
quorum
this
morning,
please
counselor
dudas,.
B
A
A
This
is
a
public
meeting
to
consider
the
proposed
zoning
bylaw
amendment
listed
as
items
three
four
five
and
six
on
today's
agenda
for
the
items
just
mentioned.
Only
those
who

land
tribunal.
In

the
applicant
may
appeal
the
matter
to
the
ontario
land
tribunal.
A
We
have
some
interesting
items
on
the
agenda
today,
but
we
have
something
special
before
we
get
into
the
meet
of
our
meeting.
Today
is
the
last
planning
committee
before
leanne
sneden
retires.
So
I
think
I
think
leanne
is
with
us
there.
She
is
good
morning
leanne,
it's
nice
to
see
you.
I
just
have
some
words.
I
wanted
to
share
on
the
occasion
of
leanne's
retirement
from
the
city
of
ottawa.
A
On
behalf
of
my
colleagues
on
the
planning
committee,
I
want
to
thank
you.
Leanne
leanne
is
retiring
as
director
of
planning
services.
After
more
than
34
years
of
dedicated
service
to
both
the
city
and
the
residents
of
ottawa.
I'm
grateful
for
this
opportunity
to
look
back
on
some
of
her
many
contributions
over
the
years.
All
over
ottawa
you
can
see
projects
leanne
has
helped
steward.
A
She
began
her
career
working
for
the
former
city
of
nepean
when
she
was
21
years
old
as
a
full-time,
lifeguard
and
swimming
instructor,
and
eventually
she
would
become
the
portfolio
manager
at
the
nepean
sportsplex.
After
17
years
with
parks
and
recreation,
she
took
a
series
of
roles
with
public
works,
transit,
the
environment
and
community
sustainability
in
2012.
She
she
joined
the
planning
department
as
the
manager
of
policy
development
and
urban
design.
A
A
Building
on
our
experience.
Working
on
planning
policy,
leanne
shifted
to
planning
services,
and
that's
where
most
of
us
involved
with
planning
committee
have
worked
with
her
in
recent
years.
During
her
leadership
as
director,
this
committee
has
had
to
deal
with
its
share
of
controversial
and
sometimes
difficult
files.
A
As
a
member
and
now
co-chair
of
the
planning
committee,
I've
seen
firsthand
how
dedicated
leanne
is
to
her
staff
working
with
them
and
counselors
and
residents.
She
has
continued
to
deliver
solutions
to
problems,
big
and
small
and
behind
the
scenes.
Leanne
has
also
worked
hard
to
improve
many
internal
processes
and
has
looked
consistently
for
innovative
ways
to
deliver
services.
These
are
things
that
the
public
doesn't
always
get
to
see,
but
they're
important
and
they've
resulted
in
a
better
experience
for
everyone
involved
in
development
applications.
A
Leanne,
your
wealth
of
knowledge
and
experience
will
be
greatly
missed
as
you
embark
on
the
next
chapter
of
your
life
and
I'm
honored
to
have
this
opportunity
to
recognize
your
many
years
of
service
and
contributions
to
our
city.
Your
dedication
to
the
public
is
evident
in
all
that
you've
achieved
and
your
work
will
continue
to
guide
and
impact
the
planners
and
staff
that
have
been
fortunate
enough
to
work
for
you
and
with
you.
Thank
you
leanne
for
your
service
to
the
city,
and
we
wish
you
the
very
best
in
the
next
steps
of
your
life.
D
Sure
I
just
certainly
thank
you,
chair
for
your
leadership
and
and
to
the
rest
of
the
committee
members.
Many
of
you
I've
worked
with
and
some
are
new
faces.
So
I
wish
you
all
the
best
on
this
committee.
It's
certainly
one
of
the
most
challenging
committees,
as
I'm
sure
you're,
probably
coming
to
to
recognize
and
just
want
to.
D
Thank
you
for
the
support
that
you
have
for
our
team
and
planning
services
and
in
our
department-
and
I
I
just
want
to
thank
you
for
all
the
opportunities
that
we've
had
to
come
and
and
our
team
to
to
speak
about
developments
that
are
taking
place
in
ottawa
in
the
past
years
that
I've
been
here,
and
I'm
really
excited
about
passing
that
torch
on
to
the
next
generation,
and
I
know
you're
in
very
good
hands
and
thank
you
very
much
for
all
of
your
guidance
and
support
over
the
years.
Thank
you.
A
E
Thanks
chair,
first
of
all,
I
leanne
congratulations
on
your
retirement.
It's
a
really
big
day
in
anyone's
life,
and
I
know
after
many
years
of
service
with
the
city.
This
is
a
it's
a
bittersweet
moment,
probably
to
to
you,
have
a
great
adventure
to
look
forward
to,
but
you're
leaving
behind
some
really
close
friends
and
acquaintances.
E
So,
on
behalf
of
the
entire
senior
leadership
team,
I
had
just
a
few
quick
words
as
well
as
the
departmental
management
team
and
your
colleagues
from
the
departmental
management
team
are
on
as
well.
You
know
sharing
you
know
in
many
ways
as
a
general
manager's
job
is
easier
when
a
director
really
does
just
deal
with
issues
and
keeps
issues
from
following
up
to
my
level,
and
you
know
when
issues
come
to
a
director
on
the
whole,
it's
because
people
are
frustrated
and
have
been
unable
to
resolve
issues
through
stuff
and
other
levels
of
management.
E
So
director's
job
is
never
easy.
It's
always
the
most
complicated
issues
day
in
and
day
out
and
leanne
was
a
very
at
problem.
Solving
and
in
her
skills
and
problem.
Solving
are
well
appreciated
within
the
organization
and
in
the
community
at
large,
so
give
leia
a
lot
of
credit
for
just
solving
problems
and
trying
to
bring
people
together
to
find
solutions
all
the
time,
but
lian's
greatest
legacy
will
actually
be
the
team
she's
leaving
behind,
because
leanne
more
than
most
people,
I
know,
was
incredibly
devoted
to
developing
people.
E
She
believed
very
strongly
in
her
team.
She
was
a
strong
and
passionate
advocate
for
her
team
at
all
times.
She'd
hold
me
to
account
for
that
and
in
many
instances
for
the
development
of
her
team,
and
she
really
meant
showed
the
leadership
qualities
of
ensuring
that
we
are
developing
the
planners
coming
through
the
system
and
cared
very
deeply
for
them.
So
our
management
team
congratulates
you
on
your
on
your
next
adventure,
we're
a
little
envious
in
many
ways
that
you're
you're
going
into
next
part
of
your
life.
E
D
A
A
A
The
third
item
is
a
zoning
bylaw
amendment
for
outdoor
commercial
patios.
There's
one
delegation
registered
and
we
have
a
staff
presentation
so
we'll
hold.
That
item
item
number
four:
is
a
zoning
bylaw
amendment
for
299
291,
carling
avenue
in
capital
ward?
There
are
delegations.
I
also
saw
something
about
possibility
for
a
deferral
motion.
Eric
do
you
have
confirmation
on
that?
Is
there
a
need
to
defer
this.
A
Okay,
well
we'll
hold
this
anyways
and
and
come
back
to
that
later.
Number
five
is
a
zoning
by-law
amendment
for
200
baraboo
street
rito
vanier,
and
there
are
delegations
registered.
So
we'll
hold
this
item
as
well,
and
the
sixth
item
is
a
zoning
bylaw
amendment
for
471,
terry
fox
drive
in
canada
north.
This
is
to
add
an
additional
permitted
use.
There's
no
delegations
registered
for
this
one.
Are
there
any
questions
from
counsellors
or
any
need
to
hold
this
one.
A
F
F
The
adr
monitors
a
range
of
demographic
housing
and
economic
variables,
including
several
key
aspects
of
the
official
plan.
2020
data
show
important
trends
that
support
the
growth
management
policies
of
the
op.
This
presentation
covers
population
and
projections,
tracking
housing
starts
intensification
rate,
employment
and
index
of
commercial
services,
around
transit
stations.
F
F
F
F
This
requires
shifting
the
measurement
from
a
calendar
year
to
a
mid-year
basis
and
to
include
only
private
dwellings
in
the
built-up
area.
With
this
revised
method,
a
58
intensification
rate
was
achieved
from
mid-2019
to
mid-2020,
since
mid-2018
an
intensification
rate
of
53
percent
was
achieved
next
slide.
F
This
is
not
surprising,
with
covenanting
impacting
employment
in
2020,
the
knowledge
sector
had
the
largest
number
of
employed
residents
in
the
city
of
ottawa
next
slide
for
the
fifth
year.
Fifth
time
this
year,
the
index
of
commercial
services
around
transit
stations
was
included
in
the
adr.
This
is
a
measurement
of
commercial
services
that
are
within
walking
distance
of
transit
stations.
The
average
score
of
stations
analyzed
was
64.8,
which
means
that
some
errands
can
be
accomplished
within
transit
station
area
and
next
slide.
F
Overall,
in
2020,
we
saw
population
tracking
close
to
op
projections,
a
decrease
of
employed
residence
and
an
increase
in
the
unemployment
rate.
An
increase
in
housing
starts
with
a
balance
of
unit
types
that
some
errands
can
be
accomplished
within
transit
station
areas
and
overall,
the
op
is
succeeding
in
its
growth
management
approach.
Thank
you.
C
Thanks
very
much
chair,
thank
you
to
staff
for
the
presentation
of
this.
The
document
is
really
interesting,
the
appending
document
and
then
the
15-minute
communities
piece
really
interesting
stuff
for
our
future
and
just
what
we've
been
seeing
during
the
the
pandemic,
but
also
our
our
projections
on
a
number
of
items.
So
I
did
want
to
dig
into
some
of
them.
The
the
piece
around
the
intensification
target,
obviously
is
is
what
is
most.
I
guess
surprising.
C
We've
gone
far
beyond
what
the
goals
of
the
old
op
were
and
the
goals
of
the
new
op,
and
it's
not
just
on
the
one
year
total
it's
a
it's
a
four-year
average
and
we're
achieving
much
much
higher
than
than
we
said.
We
would
in
the
first
four
years
of
this,
this
op,
I
think
we're
actually
looking
at
more
like
2031
type
numbers,
20
20,
you
know
closer
to
2040
numbers
of
what
our
intensification
goal
was.
C
C
In
the
report
we
see
single
detached
starts
decreasing
and
the
proportion
of
semi-detached
staying
relatively
stable
and
the
portion
of
apartments
way
up
compared
to
years
previous,
so
kind
of
what
we're
looking
for
in
some
ways
in
terms
of
efficiency
in
the
city.
But
I
guess,
on
the
whole,
to
staff
based
on
the
intensification
targets,
we're
seeing
what
are
the
implications
for
the
new
official
plan,
based
on
what
we've
already
approved.
E
E
We
do
see
in
the
if
you
look
in
the
last
15
years
of
high-rise
development,
for
example,
we'll
have
lean
years
and
boom
years
and
we've
gone
through
a
boom
year
for
sure
the
other
development
patterns
are
more
consistent
over
trend
that
bryce
and
donnelly
may
be
able
to
do
it.
We're
actually
a
little
surprised
that
the
single
family
has
wasn't
as
high
as
it
was,
and
we're
still
trying
to
understand
why
it
wasn't,
because
the
demand
is
certainly
there
with
you
and
see
with
the
lineups
of
the
sales
centers.
E
So,
in
terms
of
the
new
official
plan,
if
we
over
accomplish
our
intensification
target,
it
means
that
our
what
has
been
identified
as
25-year
land
supply
may
end
up
being
a
30-year
land
supply
and
future
councils
will
not
need
to
take
action
to
meet
the
pps
requirements.
If
that's
the
case
and
that's
assuming
population
patterns
are
happen,
the
way
rop
anticipates-
and
it
also
sees
that
that
trend
line
continues
again
encouraging
data
too
early
to
see
it
as
a
long-term
trend.
Roy
should
not
lay
down.
G
Yeah
sure,
if
I
could
add
to
that
so
with
how
we
looked
at
intensification
in
the
current
annual
development
report,
it
only
looks
at
the
number
of
units
within
the
built
up
area.
It
doesn't
look
at
what
type
of
units
they
actually
are.
So
just
a
couple
of
comments
on
the
intensification
rates
from
we
did
change
it
and
to
align
with
the
new
official
plan
from
mid-2019
to
mid-2020
and
what
it
does
is
it
captures
the
first
six
months
of
2019,
which,
if
you
recall
2019,
was
also
a
very
was.
G
It
was
a
banner
year
of
what
we
called
it
back
in
the
2019
annual
development
report
and
those
bulks
of
apartments
were
captured
as
part
of
this
prior
to
covet.
So
it's
also
a
one-year
snapshot.
I
agree
with
mr
willis.
It's
one
year
does
not
a
trend
make
in
terms
of
the
implications
on
the
growth
management
and
the
new
official
plan.
G
C
As
the
report
talks
about,
I
think
that's
using,
I
think,
that's
using
the
new
definition
and
the
four-year
snapshot,
even
using
the
old
definition,
still
fairly
high
much
higher
than
than
what
we
were
predicting.
So
I
guess
are
you
able
to
compare
the
housing
starts
that
we
said
would
happen
in
the
op,
the
new
op
versus
what
we
saw
in
this
report.
Just
you
know,
in
terms
of
apartments
single
family
row
housing
the
semi.
C
G
It
looks
at
the
total
new
dwellings
that
we
anticipate
and
we
proportion
it
by
five
year
periods
as
best
as
we
can,
but
that
doesn't
mean
that
the
market's
always
going
to
follow
those
trends.
So
we
haven't
done
a
year
by
year
comparison,
the
new
fisher,
the
growth
management
strategy,
doesn't
really
intend
to
allocate
units
on
a
year
by
year
basis.
G
G
C
Okay,
I
do
I
do
remember
in
the
new
ops
seeing
the
number
of
you
know
single
families
we
were
expecting
and
that
over
the
over
the
length
of
time
and
how
those
type
of
units
that
we
would
need.
It
would
be
interesting
to
start
comparing
that
every
every
few
years
of
what
we're
actually
getting,
I
think
and
and
just
see
if
we're
meeting
that
that
mark
or
not,
I
guess
a
couple.
C
It
doesn't
seem
that
that
is
occurring
in
any
large
way
with
the
numbers
I'm
seeing
here
doesn't
seem
that
that's
a
trend
at
all
and
the
other
point
I'll
just
make
is
we
often
hear
about
the
need
for
supply
to
lower
prices,
but
we
had
a
lot
of
supply
a
lot
of
concentration.
You
saw
those
red
dots
in
the
report,
big
center
dots
around
narcore
and
the
the
effect
on
our
you
know
our
price
of
housing.
Obviously,
is
it's
difficult
to
pin
that
down
just
from
from
supply?
C
E
E
But
it
statistically,
as
royce's
data
shows,
is
not
that
large
in
the
context
of
the
broader
region
where
both
ottawa
and
the
village
know
really
still
contain
the
majority
of
the
population
for
the
broader
region.
So
people
some
people
are
leaving
the
city,
but
many
others
are
choosing
to
stay
within
one
or
the
other.
E
The
housing
cost
issue
is
extraordinarily
complex
and
I
don't
think
and
there's
I
don't
think,
there's
a
single
cause
to
what's
going
on
right
now,
and
certainly
the
province
who
has
the
overall
responsibility
is
struggling
to
find
that
the
premier's
called
a
housing
summit.
Because
of
this,
some
of
it
has
to
do
with
supply
issues
in
various
areas
of
the
province.
We've
passed
a
new
official
plan.
So
that's
our
answer
to
that
supply
question.
Some
of
it
has
to
do
with
mortgage
policies.
E
The
federal
government
sets
the
mortgage
insurance
policies,
lending
rates
and
also
sort
of
demographic
shifts
and
trends,
and
then
immigration
rates
will
also
play
not
so
much
right
now
in
the
middle
of
the
pandemic.
But
if
you
look
in
the
longer
trend
that
has
a
lot
to
do
with
housing,
supply
will
play
out.
So
we
really
can't
sit
here
and
say
you
know
on
a
one
year,
snapshot
of
data.
E
What's
the
cause
of
this
really
extraordinary
increase
in
housing
prices,
and
but
it's
not
just
in
auto
if
it
was
just
in
ottawa,
we'd,
say
it's
an
audible
problem,
but
it's
across
all
of
canada
and
in
fact
even
beyond
canada.
So
there's
it's
just
too
complex
and
I
just
don't
think
staff
can
give
committee
a
reasonable
answer
on
the
root
cause.
C
That's
fair
and
I
think
that's
why
I
think
that
the
arguments
just
about
supply
and
only
putting
more
supplies
is
never
really
going
to
get
to
our
affordability
targets
or
actual
affordable
housing
subsidized
housing
that
we
that
we
need
in
there.
We
need
to
be
building
that
supply
is
not
going
to
do
it
on
its
own.
So
chair,
I
have
one
more
question,
but
I
can't
I
don't
recall
if
it's
this
report
of
the
15-minute
report,
it's
about
the
transit
station
walkability,
is
that
the
adr
is
that
the
15
minutes.
C
Okay,
thank
you.
So
I
I
saw
the
the
the
number
of
64.8
was
the
average
index,
which
is
a
fairly
low,
walkability
score
for
transit
station
hubs.
That's
the
average
the
highest,
obviously
at
rito
and
parliament
and
the
lowest
index
was
a
trombley
station
at
29..
So
it
was,
though,
a
bit
surprising
about
how
low
the
walkability
was
with
several
stations
around
lrt.
C
I
suspect
some
of
that
will
change
over
time,
given
our
building
necessity,
but
it
does
beg
the
question
about
the
build
of
our
transit
line
and
and
what
we're
doing
in
the
future
for
transit
station
build
out.
I
mean
the
imperative
to
put
this
where
people
are
are
already
is,
is
quite
important
and
I
think,
there's
a
number
of
stations
where
there's
a
long
walk
to
basic
services.
C
E
E
There
are
a
lot
of
improvements
to
walkability,
so
counselor
brockington,
for
example,
in
the
stage
2
approval
got
a
number
of
sidewalk
improvements
to
stations
in
his
ward
when
those
facilities
are
actually
built.
Those
walkability
scores
will
improve,
as
we
see
stage
2
in
in
completion
going
forward.
But
it's
is
something
definitely
we're
going
to
be
looking
at
in
the
new
tmp
as
well.
About
how
to
augment
that
as
well,
because
it
is
a
path
to
accomplishing
our
op
goals,.
G
So
it's
more
of
a
measure
of
commercial
services
within
the
area,
and
if
we
look
at
the
map
of
where
the
transit
stations
are,
as
mr
willis
says,
it
makes
sense
that
some
areas
are
rich
in
commercial
services
and
other
areas
that
are
more
up
and
coming
are
currently
do
not
have
as
much
relative.
But
over
time.
We
would
expect
those
areas
to
have
more
commercial
services.
A
I
wanted
to
follow
up
on
that.
If
I
can,
because
the
the
walk
score
near
transit
stations
has
actually
gone
down
over
the
past
couple
of
years,
it
was
about
10
points
higher
two
years
ago
in
2018..
Is
that
due
to
covet
or
are
there
other
factors?
Has
there
been
any
analysis
on
why
those
scores
have
gone
down
and
changed
to
go
lower
over
the
past
couple
of
years?.
F
Perfect
yeah,
so
I
had
reached
out
to
walk
score
because
of
that
that
drop
in
scores
from
the
previous
two
years,
and
some
of
it
was
a
result
in
a
change
in
the
way.
Walk
score
was
looking
at
scores,
so
they
were
removing
something
like
a
driving
school.
It
was
before
categorized
as
an
elementary
school
by
mistake.
So
little
changes
like
that
from
2018,
as
well
as
some
closures,
either
permanently
or
temporary,
of
those
commercial
services
due
to
covet
19
impacted
the
scores
in
2020.
B
Thank
you
chair
and
thank
you
councilman
art,
for
your
your
comments
and
I
have
no
question,
but
I
just
you
know,
with
respect
to
trombley
station
adjacent
to
the
via
station.
The
developments
that
via
has
proposed
are
for
for
their
station
and
the
overpass
that
I've
spoken
with
mr
willis
about
and
and
that
has
is
funded
in
ea
from
trombley
station
to
the
train
yards.
B
A
major
commercial
development
are
all
elements
that,
while
they're
not
very
walkable
now
they
they
will
be
in
the
future
and
that's
what
we're
building
for
so
I
I
appreciate
the
council.
Menard
highlighted
the
current
situation,
but
it
is
progressing
to
a
a
more
fulsome
walkable
situation.
So
I
just
wanted
to
put
that
out
there.
Thank
you,
chair.
A
I
would
like
to
thank
staff
for
their
work
in
putting
this
together.
It's
a
really
important
report
really
required
reading
for
anyone
who's
interested
in
how
our
city
is
growing
and
changing.
So
thank
you
staff
for
putting
this
together,
and
I
always
look
forward
to
this
one.
Each
year
is
this
report
received
received
received
received.
Thank
you.
A
G
G
We
also
worked
with
dr
michael
sawada
from
the
department
of
geography
at
the
university
of
ottawa
and
katie
carr
from
the
ottawa
neighborhood
study,
and
we
wish
to
thank
them
for
allowing
us
to
use
their
data
as
the
basis
for
some
of
our
analysis
and
and
finally
I
I
just
want
to
say
that
I'm
really
proud
of
what
the
authors
and
what
the
team
have
accomplished
in
this
report.
It
is
a
heavy
report,
particularly
since
there
were
a
few
other
things
going
on
at
the
same
time,
such
as
writing
a
brand
new
official
plan.
F
The
new
official
plan
integrates
15-minute
neighborhoods
as
a
fundamental
building
block
for
how
the
city
grows.
The
15-minute
neighborhood
concept
informs
many
of
our
op
policies.
There
are
policies
that
support
the
evolution
of
15-minute
neighborhoods
throughout
the
op,
whether
it
be
mobility,
housing,
urban
design
policies
or
parks
and
green
spaces.
Reflecting
on
the
pandemic.
We
see
that
15-minute
neighborhoods
improve
our
resiliency
and
well-being
next
slide.
F
This
study
does
not
define
locked-in
boundaries
or
declare
where
there
are
existing
15-minute
neighborhoods.
Nor
does
the
study
assume
everyone
can
walk
everywhere
all
the
time.
Instead,
the
study
hopes
to
highlight
a
range
of
15-minute
neighborhoods
and
shows
the
complexity
of
15-minute
neighborhoods.
This
study
is
a
baseline
of
accessibility
of
services,
amenities
and
the
pedestrian
environment.
Today
the
study
looks
at
how
we
can
increase
pedestrian
travel
opportunities
and
with
the
baseline
it
looks
at
how
and
where
we
can
improve
our
neighborhoods
and
who
can
help
achieve
those
improvements.
F
As
mentioned,
our
study
included
a
public
survey.
This
survey
ran
for
approximately
six
weeks
and
we
had
just
over
four
thousand
respondents.
Questions
assess
what
people
prioritize
within
a
neighborhood.
What
is
missing,
how
they
get
around
and
factors
an
element
that
affect
their
safety
enjoyment
of
walking.
F
We
use
posted
code
data
to
link
respondents
to
the
new
op
transects
to
allow
us
to
analyze
survey
responses
by
transect.
As
seen
in
the
report,
we
also
included
options
in
the
survey
for
demographic
data
to
allow
analysis
based
on
gender
age,
those
with
or
without
children
in
the
home
and
those
who
use
mobility
aids
next
slide.
F
The
survey
was
on
the
new
op
webpage
and
was
circulated
through
a
number
of
ways,
including
the
city
of
ottawa's,
social
media,
twitter
and
facebook
pages.
It
was
sent
to
the
ambassadors
working
group
for
the
new
op,
which
consisted
of
30
diverse
groups.
It
was
sent
to
counselors
who
included
on
their
websites
and
newsletters
and
during
the
survey
period
we
also
ran
a
q,
a
page
on
the
new
op
webpage,
which
allowed
residents
to
ask
questions
on
the
15-minute
neighborhood
concept
before
filling
up
the
survey.
F
If
they
wished
next
slide
in
the
survey,
we
asked
respondents
to
prioritize
a
list
of
services
and
amenities
that
they
find
to
be
important
within
a
15-minute
walk
from
their
home
from
highest
priority
to
lowest
priority.
According
to
the
survey
responses,
we
have
grocery
stores
in
supermarkets
parks
with
or
without
playgrounds
and
splash,
pads,
retail
and
commercial
oc
transport
bus
stops,
health
services,
lrtro
train
stations,
indoor
community,
centers
rec
facilities
and
libraries
elementary
or
secondary
schools
and
finally,
child
care
facilities.
F
You
will
see
all
of
this
is
integrated
into
our
analysis
and
mapping
next
slide
in
the
survey.
We
also
ask
respondents
to
prioritize
a
list
of
factors
for
safe
and
enjoyable
walking
in
order
to
complete
the
second
lens
of
our
analysis
on
the
pedestrian
environment,
from
highest
prior
to
lowest
priority.
F
Next
slide,
we
also
ran
a
supplementary
rule
survey
to
specifically
understand
the
perspective
of
rural
residents.
The
question
assessed
what
service
amenities
are
prioritized
within
easy
access
to
their
homes,
where
they
go
most
often
to
get
those
services,
whether
it's
in
the
urban
area
or
their
closest
village?
What
services
amenities
are
missing
at
their
closest
village?
How
often
they
visit
a
village
and
factors
and
elements
of
their
safe
and
enjoyable
walking.
F
The
rural
survey
results
underscored
the
need
for
more
services,
amenities
in
our
villages
and
highlighted
the
important
role
of
village
main
streets
in
the
social
lives
of
rural
residents.
Next
slide
I'll
now
explain
the
mapping.
We
undertook
that
used
responses
from
our
public
survey
mapping
exercises
completed
to
create
the
baseline
of
access
to
services
and
amenities.
F
Before
we
get
into
the
actual
maps.
I
want
to
share
with
you
the
approach
we
undertook.
First,
we
started
with
just
the
locations
of
our
nine
services
amenities,
so
those
that
were
addressed
in
the
survey
map
two
is
scoring
residential
parcels
on
the
access
to
those
services.
Amenities
within
a
15-minute
walk
with
all
services
amenities
scoring
equally
map.
Three
is
adjusting
that
score
based
on
weighting
from
the
survey
priority
list
of
service
amenities
map.
Four
is
adjusting
that
score
once
again,
based
on
a
concentration
of
service
and
amenities
within
a
15-minute
walk
and
map.
F
F
F
F
Our
next
step
was
to
bring
in
all
residential
parcels
and
create
a
15-minute
walking
network
around
each
residential
parcel
that
is
inside
the
urban
boundary
and
in
our
villages.
Each
residential
parcel
was
then
giving
a
score
out
of
nine
for
each
service
and
amenity
category.
That
was
within
a
15-minute
bar.
F
F
As
you
can
see,
from
the
legend,
the
purple
color
indicates
a
highest
score
with
red,
indicating
a
lower
score
next
slide.
So
we
know
that
different
servers
and
amenities
have
a
higher
priority
score
than
others.
According
to
the
public
survey
program,
therefore,
we
used
responses
from
the
public
survey
to
apply
a
weight
to
those
services
and
amenities.
F
So
this
map
builds
off
of
the
two
previous
maps,
but
factors
in
the
count
of
each
amenity
type
that
can
be
accessed
relative
to
the
total
number
of
each
amenity
in
the
city.
So
it
now
takes
into
consideration
if
there's
more
than
one
of
those
amenities
within
a
15-minute
walk.
For
example,
a
residential
brussels
that
has
three
schools
within
a
15-minute
walk
would
score
higher
than
a
residential
parcel
that
has
just
one
school
within
a
15-minute
walk.
We
still
have
the
nine
levels
of
scoring,
and
we
know
this
map
is
difficult
to
digest.
F
Next
slide
I'll
now
give
a
brief
overview
of
pedestrian
environment
analysis.
The
main
goal
of
our
mapping
work
with
respect
to
the
pedestrian
environment,
was
to
quantify
the
key
aspects
of
safe
and
enjoyable
streets
for
people.
To
do
this,
we
considered
artificial
intelligence
built
form
in
the
public,
realm
character
of
streets
and
gis
analysis
that
inputs
many
layers
of
city
data
next
slide.
F
For
ai,
we
partnered
with
the
ottawa
neighborhood
study
and
professor
michael
sawada
at
the
university
of
ottawa,
ai
was
machine.
Learning
that
ranked
50
000
google
street
view
images
on
their
perceived
walkability.
This
ai
was
a
good
starting
point
for
our
team.
However,
we
realized
that
we
also
needed
to
apply
a
planting
lens
to
our
assessment,
and
this
was
completed
through
a
street
character
and
built
form
assessment.
F
We
then
have
what
we
categorized
hybrid
urban
on
these
segments.
You
will
find
sidewalks
and
crosswalks
shop
space
in
the
street
tree
tree
street
trees,
but
you
also
find
vehicle
oriented
uses
and
interrupted
street
wall.
I
just
want
to
know
here
that
tree
canopy
wasn't
a
factor
for
our
service
amenities,
but
it
is
considered
in
our
pedestrian
environment
analysis
next
slide.
F
F
F
F
So
the
ai
and
the
character
assessment
gives
us
our
pedestrian
environment.
However,
our
character
assessment
was
just
on
segments
of
commercial
streets,
so
our
next
step
was
developing
a
safety
and
enjoyment
formula
using
city
data
that
best
represented
the
character
assessment
and
could
be
combined
with
the
ai
scores,
so
scores
could
be
calculated
on
arterial
collectors
and
commercial
street
segments.
F
The
city
data
also
need
to
take
in
consideration
that
factors
were
important
to
our
survey.
Responses
for
safe
and
enjoyable
walking
next
line,
so
gis
data
that
was
used
included,
tree
canopy,
presence
of
buildings,
framing
the
street
surface,
parking
traffic
volume
and
speeds
number
of
vehicle
lanes
and
nearby
natural
features,
along
with
other
data.
F
F
F
F
F
In
the
gap
analysis,
next
steps
on
actions
are
identified
and
who
can
help
move
improvements
forward
are
also
identified,
the
who
are
mostly
city
roles
next
slide,
the
op
has
limited
influence
for
specific
businesses.
Op
language
is
generally
broader
or
high
level
and
provides
a
range
of
permitted
uses,
but
not
specifics.
F
F
F
After
we
completed
our
study,
we
looked
at
lessons
learned
and
what
we
can
look
at
to
see
how
we
can
improve
our
methods.
If
we
undertake
the
study
again
in
the
future
that
can
be
from
survey
methods,
data
sources
and
partnerships
next
slide
for
our
baseline
study,
we
learned
that
there
is
a
range
and
complexity
of
15-minute
neighborhoods.
It's
all
about
it's
about
increasing
walking
options
while
recognizing
the
need
for
other
modes
as
well.
The
study
established
a
baseline
to
build
up.
This
is
the
first
step
of
money.
F
The
report
is
a
strategic
document
and
tool
that
is
fluid.
As
15-minute
neighborhoods
of
all
15-minute
neighborhoods
can
be
seen
as
a
unification
of
op
master
plan
policies
and
other
city
plans
and
programs
and
overall
the
city,
the
study
identified
where
and
how
we
can
improve
and
who
can
help
us
make
those
improvements
thanks.
A
H
D
H
E
This
is
brand
new
work
that
we've
done
as
a
as
a
department,
and
I
think
otto
was
one
of
the
first
in
all
of
canada.
To
do
anything
like
this
at
all.
So
part
of
this
first
report
is
to
try
to
get
the
methodology
down
to
tell
the
story,
and
I'm
really
quite
impressed
with
the
work
the
team
did,
and
I
think
in
time,
as
a
monitoring
tool
we'll
be
able
to
add
more
complexity.
The
way
the
information
is
portrayed
and
I
think
the
council
makes
an
interesting
suggestion.
E
I'll
talk
ask
royce
to
answer
whether
it's
feasible
and
future
iterations
of
this
to
kind
of
migrate
to
that.
But
I
I
I
want
to
to.
I
want
committee
to
understand
how
big
a
deal
it
was
to
even
get
this
first
version
in
place,
because
I
said
that
we've
we've
invented
this
methodology
and
it
and
just
from
the
public
reaction
to
we
think
people
really
really
appreciate
this
and
want
us
to
continue
with
this
work.
F
Thank
you
I'll,
actually
I'll
take
this
one.
So
through
you
chair,
we
will
be
looking
at
putting
our
scores
up
on
geo
ottawa
to
allow
internal
and
external
stakeholders
to
take
a
look
at
that
local
level.
We
are
also
looking
at
the
opportunities
to
partnership
again
with
the
ottawa
neighborhood
study,
to
see
if
they
can
have
our
scores
uploaded
onto
their
website
to
allow
some
further
analysis
at
their
their
levels
of
geography.
H
Great
yeah,
I
mean
I'm
interested
because
I
think
it
is
a
lot
of
work
went
into
this
and
the
more
it
can
be
consumable,
the
more
it
could
be
looked
at
and
further
analysis
I
don't
have
much
of
so.
I
guess
I
have
two
two
further
points.
One
which
is
a
15
min
neighborhood
is
a
is
a
a
series
of
policies
and
objectives
and
contexts
that
set
out
an
environment
that
we're
trying
to
establish,
but
but
it's
easily
easily
removable.
H
So
you
know
I'll
give
you
an
ex
a
very
recent
example,
both
counselor
king
and
I,
over
the
last
week,
there's
been
local
rumors
that
the
metro
on
beechwood,
which
is
a
bit
of
a
heritage
building
and
use
in
our
community,
was
going
to
be
removed.
So
if
I
look
at
your
map,
a
grocery
store
on
beechwood
would
would
have
tagged
it.
H
It
is
I
I
did
the
homework
previously,
so
I
I
guess
I
question
when,
when
we
identify
benefits
to
the
neighborhood
in
particular
to
the
15-minute
context,
what
policy
environment
supports
that
those
uses?
I
I
give
in
this
case
a
grocery
store,
and
you
know
we
don't
see
many
grocery
stores
leave
communities
generally.
E
So
chair,
you
know,
first
and
foremost,
we
understand
the
role
that
major
uses,
such
as
grocery
stores
play
in
the
neighborhoods,
and
I
think
ottawa's.
Zoning
for
the
most
part,
is
among
the
more
permissive
in
ontario
to
locate
them
in
many
different
neighborhoods,
and
that
was
work
done
several
years
ago
to
expand
the
opportunities
for
smaller
scale,
grocery
stores.
E
In
many
neighborhoods,
we
don't
control
the
levers
of
whether
a
big
corporation
decides
whether
one
opens
or
closes
that's
outside
the
scope
of
our
power,
but
our
zoning
does
create
a
permissive
environment
to
get
those
types
of
uses
coming
in
and
at
some
point
it
has
to.
It
is
a
market
consideration.
H
Fair
point:
I
I
guess
I
my
my
further
point
to
that,
because
you
know
we
do
live
within
the
authorities
that
we
hold
and
we
don't
have
all
of
them
as
you've
described,
but
in
the
spirit
of
achieving
15-minute
neighborhoods,
as
things
are
added
generally,
they
will
be,
but
there
are
instances
where
they
are
removed.
How
do
we
keep
that
in
mind
when
we
consider
consider
what
are
missing
amenities
within
a
neighborhood
or
when
we,
when,
we
would
consider,
say
additional
heights
or
permitted
uses
to
to
try
to
incentivize
those
types
of
investments?
E
So
chair
chairs,
I
mean
it's.
It's
certainly
a
valid
point
that
some
things
that
we
count
as
part
of
the
score
may
disappear
over
time.
As
I
said,
we
as
we
get
into
the
finer
grain
community
level
planning
either
through
a
secondary
plan
or
whether
there's
a
major
site
for
redevelopment
within
those
areas.
E
We
can
look
at
those
gaps
and
speak
to
the
development
proponents
to
see
whether
or
not
they're
interested
in
bringing
some
of
those
money
forward
and
make
sure
that
the
zoning
that's
put
in
to
those
sites,
as
they
redevelop
redevelopment,
allows
that
I
know.
For
example,
we
know
we
have
a
food
desert
in
parts
of
somerset,
ward
and
councillor
mckinney.
E
For
example,
I've
been
in
the
room
when
they
have
asked
people
coming
forward
with
development
applications
if
they
would
look
at
a
grocery
store
as
a
potential
amenity
in
there,
and
I
think,
that's
part
of
where
we
work
is
a
as
a
team
to
try
to
encourage
these.
We
can't
force
things
to
happen
because
we're
in
a
our
regulatory
role
doesn't
put
us
in
the
business
of
creating
these
businesses,
but
we
certainly
can
enable
them.
Every
week
we
can
so
as
we
get
into
community
level
design
plan
updates.
E
H
H
I
think
we're
falling
back
in
the
old
trap
of
that
first
publication,
where
we
can't
compare
1950s
pools
to
2020
pools
right.
So
I
would
just
caution
us
on
that
particular
map,
because
the
amenity
ranges
within
that
map
is
treated
as
equal
when
the
age
of
the
infrastructure
limits
its
programming
and
often
its
footprint.
So
it's
more
of
a
comment
and
it's
specific
to
one
map,
but
it's
just.
H
Mean
it's
a
general
comment,
but
I
would
like
I
would
like
to
see
if
that
map
can
be
amended
to
reflect
the
the
final
approved
plan
for
the
wreck,
recreation,
master
plan,
which
had
a
little
more
nuance
in
the
facility
types
and
limits
the
work
is
done
already.
Mr
chair,
in
the
rec
master
plan.
It's
just
embedding
it
in
this
particular
map.
H
I
Thank
you
councillor,
gower,
for
letting
me
speak
here
not
really
on
this
committee,
but
I
was
blown
away
by
this
presentation.
I
think
this
is
absolutely
fabulous
when
I
think
about
the
groups
in
canada,
they're
always
interested
in
the
data
and
when
they
talk
about
what
is
15
minute
neighborhood.
What
do
they
really
mean
by
that?
When
they
see
this
data
they
will
be
so
thrilled?
I
They
will
also,
I
think,
be
very
helpful
and
to
all
the
community
associations
out
there,
but
at
first
for
sure,
as
councilor
brockington
will
say,
caldwell
we
constantly
talk
about
is
a
food
desert.
It's
a
food
desert
people,
don't
really
know
what
that
means,
and
now
to
have
this
data
to
look
at
it
and
say
what
does
that
really
mean
that
there
is
nowhere
that
people
can
go
for
groceries?
You
know
the
quickie
is
the
option?
That's
not
a
grocery
store.
Really,
I
think
there's
this
is.
I
B
G
So
chairs
on
that
much
there's
there's
a
couple
ways
to
look
at
how
we
would
plan
for
15-minute
neighborhoods.
So
if
we
look
within
the
built-up
areas,
the
idea
is
really
about.
How
can
we
increase
daily
and
weekly
services
amenities
and
how
to
get
them?
And
it
doesn't
necessarily
consider
major
employment
destinations
as
part
of
that,
but
that
doesn't
mean
that
we
are
ignoring
that,
for
example.
G
It
doesn't
necessarily
cover
that
aspect
of
employment
that
doesn't
mean
that
as
a
department
as
a
profession,
we're
not
trying
to
get
those
employment
opportunities
in
certainly
a
50-minute
neighborhood
does
not
preclude
employment
opportunities
where
they
exist
and
if
there's
an
employment
opportunity,
if
there's
an
already
existing
major
employer
and
they
can
provide
complementary
services
that
would
benefit
the
neighborhood
and
that
certainly
fits
in
within
that
ideal.
The
other
lens
would
be
for
newer
communities
when
we're
building
from
scratch
almost
and
then
again.
G
B
Maybe
I
can
just
jump
in
and
provide
maybe
an
idea
and
see
then
I'll.
Let
you
fly
with
it.
One
of
the
things
that
we've
certainly
learned
through
the
pandemic
is
that
people
are
more
than
capable
of
working
from
home
and
that
they
might
be
interested
in
more
of
the
hub
and
mobility
spaces.
So,
for
instance,.
E
Chairs,
if
I
could
just
conclude
that
I
mean
the
counts,
are
along
the
lines
of
our
own
thinking.
So
one
thing
the
pandemic
is
showing
us
that
workers
are
more
mobile
than
they've
ever
been
and
in
all
likelihood
in
the
post-pandemic
world,
people
will
have
more
than
one
work
location
compared
to
in
the
past,
where
they
would
go
to
one
spot
now.
