B
It
will
be
a
nice
day
today.
I
I'm
trapped
in
zoom
world
all
day.
Today,
though,
I
just
finished
chairing
oops
the
ontario
caucus
ontario
caucus
meeting
at
fcm.
So
it's
a
bit
of
a
crazy
one
for
me
today,.
A
Well,
I
just
sent
you
a
zoom
kind
of
a
question,
so
have
a
look
at
it
sometime
this
week
and
we'll
talk.
A
B
Oh
thanks
thanks
kel
for
sending
me
the
notes
this
morning.
I
appreciate
that.
B
Bit
of
a
bit
of
a
crazy
day
today
so
and
on
that
the
bruce
timmerlin
award-
I
just
don't
know
if
robin
attached
it
or
is
it
in
the
chairs,
notes
itself.
A
Okay,
I
can
send
it
to
you,
it's
not
in
the
notes,
I
think
pimmers,
but
I
they
sent
me
a
copy
as
well.
Oh,
I
got.
B
It
I
got
it,
I
got
it,
I'm
I'm
just
all
over
the
map.
Today,
it's
been,
I
had
to
race.
Through
my
last
meeting
I
was
chairing
so
it's
been
a
bit
of
a
whirlwind
today,
but
that's
all
good
excellent
and
from
a
agenda
perspective,
the
bruce
said:
timberson
we're
gonna
lead
that
off
at
the
beginning.
I
assume.
B
Right,
that's
right!
It's
funny.
I
was
on
the
start
of
another
call
the
I
had
fcm
ontario
stuff
just
before
this,
and
I
had
to
let
people
know
I
haven't
joined
a
cult,
I'm
not
part
of
some
different
group
or
trying
to
get
a
new
style.
It
was
for
a
fundraiser
like
we
all
do
and
I
was
shocked
how
many
people
were
messaging
me.
I
had
did
that
in
my
municipality
too,
so
it's
got
great
legs
thanks
for
everyone's
support.
B
B
Think
we're
at
a
hundred
and
eleven
thousand
and
I'm
hearing,
there's
gonna
be
some
big
bucks
coming
in
towards
the
end
of
the
week.
Some
groups
are
amassing
money
and
they're
going
to
donate
and
it's
all
for
a
good
cause.
Excellent
good
lead
up
for
it
too.
I
see
some
reds
can.
C
I
I
was,
I
was
transiting
into
city
hall
and
I
I
my
timing
is
a
little
bit
off.
So
I
had
you
on
my
phone.
I'm
going
to
log
in
sounds
good.
You
got.
B
C
It's
especially
slow,
if
you
haven't
been
here
for
a
couple
of
days,
it's
got
to
redo
all
the
sometimes
the
libraries
or
the
protocols,
whatever.
D
C
D
B
Okay,
cal,
I
think
we
have
enough
people
on
board
and
I'm
just
gonna
start
at
the
beginning
before
we
get
into
the
agenda.
First
of
all
june
is
let's
bike
month.
It's
a
time
to
celebrate
ottawa
cycling
community
and
encourage
people
to
try
cycling
and
have
a
fun
and
healthy
transportation.
Option
june
is
also
a
good
time
to
honor
those
who
help
us
achieve
the
goals
by
increasing
cycle
modal
share
set
out
in
the
plan
in
2013
in
the
tmp.

years
past,
we

the
efforts
of
those
in
ottawa,
cycling
community

your
own
bike
tool
kit
together,
as
well
as

Thank

your
hard
work
and
passion
recycling
community
this

the
bruce

mountain

or
the
omba.
B
Please
help
me
congratulate
both
jeff
tyndall
and
ottawa,
mountain
bike
association
for
their
hard
work
and
dedication
to
grow
the
auto
cycling
communities
and
before
I
I
finish
up
here,
the
winners
will
receive
their
certificates
and
awards
in
the
coming
days.
But
I'd
ask
councillor
glenn
gower
if
to
say
a
couple
of
words.
E
Thank
you
chair,
and
I
just
wanted
to
say
a
big
congratulations
to
to
jeff.
I
am
thrilled
that
a
stittsville
resident
is
one
of
the
recipients
this
year.
I
think
it
was
two
years
ago
that
you
started
let's
spike
stittsville,
and
I
remember
that
first
year
you
were
helping
residents
in
the
community
find
a
bike,
learn
how
to
tune
up
their
bikes.
You
were
bringing
people
over
to
your
garage
to
help.
E
People
get
get
comfortable
with
cycling,
and
I
know,
through
your
commute,
you've
shared
the
good,
the
bad
and
the
sometimes
the
ugly
on
social
media
and
I've
run
into
jeff
countless
times
on
the
trail
in
our
local
streets,
and
it's
just
great
to
see
such
an
active
advocate
for
cycling
in
our
community,
not
just
in
stittsville
but
across
ottawa,
and
I
I
can't
think
of
anyone.
Who'd
be
more
deserving
than
you
jeff.
So
congratulations
and
hope
to
hope
to
see
you
soon
along
the
trans-canada
trail.
C
Yeah
thanks
very
much
for
the
recognition,
I'm
I'm
quite
humbled
by
it.
I
I
really
didn't
expect
it.
There's
there's
so
many
great
people
in
ottawa
working
really
hard
to
promote
active
transportation
and
cycling.
So
I
don't
know
I'm
just
at
a
loss
for
words.
It's
it's
a
it's
a
great
honor,
so
thank
you
very
much
and
if
you
can
get
on
a
bike,
go
up
for
a
ride.
C
It's
a
fantastic
way
to
engage
with
with
your
residents
in
your
ward
and
please
promote
and
and
fund
active
cycling
initiatives.
Thanks.
B
A
Sure
so,
first
of
all
a
huge
thank
you
on
behalf
of
the
ottawa
mountain
bike
association,
our
volunteers
put
thousands
of
hours
every
year
into
the
carlington
bike
park
and
other
trails
in
the
south
march
highlands.
So
we
really
appreciate
the
recognition
we
couldn't
do
it
without
the
support
of
parks
and
recreation
and
also
the
local
councillors.
A
With
the
pandemic,
we've
seen
such
a
huge
increase
in
the
number
of
cyclists
in
ottawa,
including
mountain
biking,
so
it
just
shows
how
much
cycling
is
a
keystone
in
everybody's
health
and
well-being.
So
we
just
hope
that
we
get
future
support
from
the
city
of
ottawa
and
other
mountain
bike
projects
and
other
bike
parks
throughout
the
city.
So
thanks
again
we
really
appreciate
it.
B
Great
thank
you
and
thank
you
for
coming
out.
Congratulations
again,
and
I
thank
you
michael
for
joining
us
today
as
well.
That's
it
means
a
lot
and
the
legacy
lives
on
the
great
work
of
your
family.
So
on
that
note,
I'm
gonna
go
ahead
and
shift
over
to
the
more
less
fun
stuff
to
the
agenda.
So
at
this
point
I'm
going
to
take
a
second
and
just
give
it
a
second
for
kelly
to
make
the
necessary.
B
B
Just
me
one
quick
sec,
I'm
just
pulling
up
this
other
new
document,
great
perfect.
If
you
can
go
ahead
and
do
roll
call.
Thank
you.
A
B
Great
present,
so
thank
you
for
that.

we
have
no
regrets.

point

floor
over
to
our
wonderful
city
staff.
G
Thank
you
for
the
time
this
morning
chair,
so
we
are
tabling
the
2020
annual
report
for
parking
services,
which
is
an
important
part
of
our
program
and
implementing
the
municipal
parking
management
strategy.
Next
slide,
please
go
so.
The
annual
report
represents
a
key
measure
of
transparency
related
to
all
aspects
of
the
program.
Parking
services
has
provided
an
annual
report
since
2020
following
the
original
municipal
parking
management
strategy.
G
G
A
lot
of
our
focus
last
year
was
on
the
development
of
the
public
bike
parking
strategy,
while
we're
also
working
through
the
pandemic
situation
from
an
operational
perspective.
In
doing
so,
we
were
able
to
adapt
and
maintain
our
active
communication
with
our
various
stakeholders,
including
the
through
the
park
and
stakeholder
consultation
group.
G
Thanks
a
lot
so
in
the
annual
report,
we
tracked
13
key
performance
indicators
in
alignment
with
our
own
performance
measurement
program.
I
will
not
walk
through
all
13,
but
I've
isolated
a
few
where
there
was
a
noteworthy
trend.
So
first
off
there
was
a
bit
of
a
reduction
in
our
expenses
in
2020
down
to
just
over
13
million
dollars,
which
was
largely
due
to
a
smaller
transfer
to
roads
to
cover
winter
maintenance
costs
of
on-street
paid
parking
spaces.
G
As
expected,
there
was
a
significant
reduction
in
revenues
due
to
the
pandemic,
from
just
over
17
million
in
2019
to
just
under
9
million
dollars
in
2020..
G
With
the
parking
reserve
fund,
we
did
receive
some
funds
as
part
of
the
provincial
safe,
restart
transfer,
which
helped
to
offset
the
reduction
and
meant
that
we
still
had
some
still
had
a
parking
reserve
fund
contribution,
although
smaller
than
we
we
have
otherwise
been
used
to
and
then
with
bike
parking
spaces.
G
So
this
will
help
in
identifying
gaps
for
placement
and
in
creating
a
new
benchmark
to
work
from
under
the
public
bike
parking
strategy
next
slide.
G
G
G
So
when
approaching
the
capital
program
plan,
there
are
various
capital
programs
and
requirements
that
we
need
to
account,
for
what
we
have
here
is
a
list
of
those
recur
annually
so
with
a
life
cycle.
These
are
the
renewal
requirements
related
to
our
16,
odd
facilities,
parking
facilities,
improvement
relates
to
things
like
parking
guidances
that
are
gotten
system
at
city
hall
and
other
measures
that
involve
improving
accessibility
or
improving
the
customer
experience.
G
So,
first
we
will
be
adding
a
program
to
account
for
bike
parking
and
the
new
pup
and
the
new
public
bike
parking
strategy,
and
this
will
largely
be
about
introducing
secure
by
parking
at
the
outset
and
expanding
our
inventory
with
new
facilities.
There
are
existing
requirements
to
either
increase
or
replace
available
public
parking.
G
G
There
is
also
a
defined
require
requirement
in
little
italy,
where
the
most
recent
parking
study
and
the
corresponding
report
to
council
indicated
that
staff
will
prioritize
the
search
for
opportunities
to
increase
the
parking
supply
within
the
section
south
of
the
queensway.
In
both
of
these
cases,
with
byron,
market
and
and
little
italy.
This
may
involve
construction
of
a
new
facility,
but
it's
more
likely
and
more
more
practical
on
a
go-forward
basis
for
this
to
take
the
form
of
a
partnership
with
a
developer
and
a
new
development.
G
So
placeholders
have
been
included
in
the
capital
program
plan
to
ensure
that
we
are
positioned
to
follow
through
when
that
right
and
when
the
right
opportunities
arise
and
then,
with
the
parking
payment
system,
we
will
need
to
account
for
the
fact
that
the
precise
parklink
extension
takes
us
to
2026,
but
there
will
be
a
requirement
to
purchase
a
new
system.
At
that
point
thanks.
Please.
G
G
One
of
the
purposes
of
the
capital
program
plan
review
annually
is
to
assess
the
balance
of
these
parameters,
so
so
there
is
intended
to
be
flexibility
to
respond
to
changing
conditions
as
a
result
of
this
process
and
and
this
capital
program
plan
staff
are
recommending
that
the
full
current
balance
of
22
and
a
half
million
dollars
should
be
retained
to
accommodate
spending
plans
and
also
to
ensure
that
the
balance
does
not
drop
below
eight
million
dollars
over
the
next
five
years.
G
So
I'm
going
to
provide
a
little
more
detail
on
those
spending
plans
in
a
couple
slides,
but
just
first,
some
additional
context
and
next
slide.
Please.
G
So,
in
terms
of
mapping
things
out,
we
need
to
account
for
both
our
projected
spending
requirements,
which
are
being
prioritized
in
alignment
with
the
municipal
heart
management
strategy
and
council
direction
is
also
necessary
to
account
for
potential
impacts
to
revenues,
to
ensure
that
we
have
a
healthy
reserve
from
a
cost
perspective.
There
are
life
cycle
requirements
and
follow-on
actions
to
adopt
things
like
our
technology
roadmap,
parking
replacement
and
support
of
businesses
and
tourism
and
bike
parking
strategy
outcomes
for
revenue.
G
So
this
is
how
the
capital
program
plan
lays
out.
Projections
for
the
life
cycle.
Renewal
have
been
arrived
at
through
consultation
internally
with
our
infrastructure
group.
There
is
a
higher
amount
allocated
in
2022
due
to
some
bigger
ticket
items,
specifically
at
city
hall
in
the
dallasy
garage.
G
The
early
amounts
for
parking
facilities.
Improvement
are
based
on
expanding
our
parking
guidance
and
sensor
systems
to
the
surface,
lots
and
expanding
the
program
that
we've
started
with
the
park
and
guiding
system
at
city
hall.
In
our
other
garages,
but
all
this
also
involves
expanding
our
investment
in
ev
charging.
G
G
As
indicated,
we
do
have
two
placeholders
built
in
which
will
ensure
that
we
are
in
a
position
to
pursue
the
right
opportunities
as
they
may
arise,
and
to
fulfill
the
requirements
in
both
lily
and
the
pirate
market,
and
we
expect
the
cost
of
any
new
parking
payment
system
to
be
amortized
over
a
few
years.
But
it
is
something
that
we
will
start
up
and
we
need
to
account
for
starting
in
2026.
G
G
We
approach
and
get
very
close
to
the
minimum
without
dropping
below,
and
this
helps
to
reinforce
the
importance
of
retaining
that
full
current
park
reserve
from
balance
that
we
have
currently
to
help
illustrate
continuity
past
that
five-year
horizon.
Some
projections
have
been
included
to
demonstrate
that
things
are
expected
to
stabilize
and
move
in
a
more
positive
direction
and
any
additional
revenue
streams
that
may
come
on
board
will
only
put
us
in
a
better
position.
B
G
When
the
strategy
was
tabled,
the
update
was
tabled
in
2019.
We
were
asked
to
consider
and
consult
on
a
change
to
the
second
objective.
We
did
so
through
the
parking
stakeholder
consultation
group
and
have
landed
on
some
additional
wording
to
account
for
the
local
community
when
considering
short-term
parking
requirements
that
are
otherwise
in
support
of
businesses,
institutions
and
tourism,
and
with
that
I
thank
you
again.
B
D
Thank
you
for
the
presentation.
I
have
a
few
a
few
elements
in
the
report
that
I'd
love
to
just
dive
deeper
on
so
on
page
four
of
the
report.
There's
a
reference
to
to
buy
word
garage
and
its
future
impacts.
D
Could
I
ask
that
the
text
be
amended
unless
I'm
wrong
that,
like
you're
talking
about
the
city,
lots
rather
than
the
surface
impact
so
or
or
are
you
combining
both
like
there
was
no
reference
to
there?
There
is
a
potential
shortfall
to
the
removal
of
the
central
lot
absolutely,
but
I
think
your
team
and
quartz
team
are
looking
at
partnerships
to
to
match
or
to
establish
a
new
structure.
D
G
Sure,
absolutely
and
I'll
have
to
call
the
report
to
to
look
at
the
exact
reference.
But
the
intent
with
the
public
ground
plan
and
the
corresponding
parking
replacement
strategy
is
to
account
for
the
fact
that
over
the
next
five
to
ten
years
and
then
beyond
that,
there
will
be
a
reduction
of,
I
believe
it's
550
parking
spaces
between
the
on-street
public
parking
and
the
spaces
that
are
available
at
70
clearance
within
the
the
city.
G
Barrage
and
the
intent
is
to
look
for
opportunities
to
replace
those
spaces
to
the
tune
of
about
70
replacement
rate.
And
that
is
what
we
are
currently
turning.
Our
focus
towards,
ensuring
that
we,
at
the
very
least,
pursue
those
opportunities
and
identify
any
that
that
have
come
up.
D
Okay,
is
it
possible
to
rework
that
wording
because
it
didn't
say
that
from
my
perspective
and
I'm
quite
aware
of
it
so
in
time,
how
that
reads,
I
I'd
love
to
just
see
a
bit
of
an
amendment
to
that
scott.
You
and
I
have
been,
and
I
appreciate
the
presentation
you
talked
about.
Obviously
there
is
a
shortfall
to
revenues
in
2020,
it's
pretty
obvious,
but
can
you
maybe
extract
what
that
value
is
and
and
how
it
was
I'm
going
to
use
the
word
balance?
D
G
Absolutely
chair
the
revenues
in
2020
compared
to
previous
years
were
about.
When
you
look
at
the
entirety
of
the
year,
we're
about
50
50
what
we
are
otherwise
used
to
so
we
we
did
experience
a
significant
revenue
shortfall.
We
did
see
funding
come
from
the
province
to
help
to
offset
those
those
expenses
which
helped
to
ensure
that
the
we
were
more
uneven
playing.
We
didn't
have
to
dip
into
the
parking
reserve
fund
in
order
to
offset
those
shortfalls.
G
Yeah
so
the
the
amount
was
just
over
compared
to
2019
at
least
the
amount
was
just
over
8
million
dollars
and
the
provincial
transfer
was
in
the
amount
of,
I
believe,
seven
point:
nine
million
dollars.
D
Okay:
okay,
thank
you
for
that
really
exciting
stuff.
With
the
bike
parking
really
exciting,
you
know
tippy-toeing
in
the
the
ev
world.
Can
you
maybe
ex
share
with
us?
What's
the
eevee
vision,
because
we
saw
hydro
ottawa
going
into
that
world
and
that
interest?
D
And-
and
I
I
wonder
if,
if
that's
that's
the
approach-
and
I
I'm
not
sure
how
it
all
ties
in
together,
because
I'm
not
super
aware
of
how
the
infrastructure
gets
to
say
a
charging
station,
but
I
would
understand
my
my
interpretation
would
be
that
as
we
reduced
main
streets
that
those
those
are
unique
opportunities
to
to
ensure
those
are
in
place.
Can
I
can
maybe
give
give
us
kind
of
where,
where
the
the
policy
is
going
and
where
the
practice
is
going
in
that
front.
G
Absolutely
so
chair,
the
I'll
start
just
quickly
with
our
off
street
facilities,
our
garages
so
and
our
surface
slots.
So
we
currently
have
ep
charging
stations
in
place
within
four
of
our
facilities,
and
we
will
you
know,
part
of
our
capital
program
plan.
G
We
do
have
some
funding
set
aside
to
consider
where,
where
it's
justified,
where
the
demand
supports
it
to
expand
that
ev
charging
and
expand
our
our
scope
there,
the
the
new
frontier,
if
you
will
is,
is
with
the
on
street
and
introducing
and
providing
ev
charging
on
street
and
the
city
is
in
the
process.
Right
now
finalizing
an
agreement
with
invari
and
there
was
a
federal
grant
it
was
awarded
last
year.
G
I
believe
so
that
we're
going
to
be
we're
finalizing
locations
and
all
the
all
the
details,
but
we're
looking
at
13,
on-street
tv
charging
locations,
two
chargers
per
location,
so
26
chargers
to
be
started
to
start
to
be
installed
towards
the
end
of
this
year
that
that's
what's
anticipated
at
least
and
then
from
that
point
forward
again,
I
I
believe
it'll
be
a
similar
approach
to
the
to
our
facilities.
G
Is
that,
as
the
demand
justifies
it
we'll
be
setting
aside
some
funding
to
at
least
open
ourselves
up
to
the
possibility
to
expand
that
on
a
go-forward.
D
Thanks
basis,
mr
chair
on,
I
have
one
final
question,
but
on
that
front,
is
it
would
it
be
possible
at
the
right
time
this
year
to
get
a
a
report
to
committee
or
presentation
to
committee
on
the
on
the
inviri
slash
surface
lot
on
street
pilot?
I
think
that's.
That's
that's
a
great
great
way
to
just
learn
what
learn
more
about
it.
I'm
excited
about
it,
but
I'd
love
to
just
learn
more.
So
I
wonder
mr
chair,
if
that
would
be,
that
would
be
possible.
B
Yeah
I'm
looking
at
staff
and
workload,
but
I
I
don't
see
an
issue
at
least
by
way
of
memo
or
at
a
minimum,
but
a
presentation
certainly
would
be
good.
It
is
quite
exciting.
I'm
just
looking
around
the
hollywood
squares
here.
I
don't
see
anybody
saying:
no,
don't
do
it
so,
but
scott.
Maybe
we
can
just
take
that
as
advisement.
G
Yeah,
absolutely
we
will
work
with
planning
infrastructure
economic
development
to
to
follow
through
great.
Thank
you
for
that.
Thank.
D
You
and
my
final
question
is
on
pay
and
display.
So
last
year
we
were
in
a
conversation
with
the
the
agreement
that
we
we
had
with
the
the
operator,
obviously
challenging
years.
So
hopefully
it
gets
back
on
track.
Can
you
maybe
give
us
some
insights
and
tools
that
we
have?
I
know
we've
talked
about
this
in
the
past,
where
high
demand
high
price
low,
demand
low
price
on
on
surface.
D
Do
we
have
real
time
ability
to
shift
the
funds
because,
as
covet
happened
right
in
our
businesses
closed,
then
areas
that
had
pain
display,
unfortunately
continued
to
get
some
bylaw
enforcement,
which
triggered
kind
of
the
pressure
points
you-
and
I
have
interacted
with
our
bis
on
that
front
for
for
a
number
of
months
on
this.
So
can
you
maybe
give
us
some
some
insights
on
the
tools
that
we
have
within
our
powers
to
say,
reduce
the
pan
display
price
when
demand
is
really
low,
such
as
when
the
pandemic
happened.
G
Absolutely
so
chair
the
we
do
have
rate
setting
guidelines
which
were
approved
as
part
of
the
municipal
park
management
strategy,
2019
and,
and
that
does
give
us
the
the
mechanism
to
assess
demand
and
adjust
demand.
G
We
haven't,
haven't
had
the
opportunity
to
implement
that,
because
soon
after
the
that
strategy
refresh
being
passed,
we
found
ourselves
in
in
the
pandemics.
So
we
are
looking
forward
to
moving
forward
with
that,
and
the
equipment
does
give
us
the
opportunity
to
to
change
rates
and
the
intent
is
to
conduct
these
reviews
on
a
twice
a
year
basis
and
and
make
those
rate
adjustments.
I
mean
in
alignment
with
with
other
what
other
cities
are
doing
in
best
practices.
D
G
Chair
the
we
do
have
the
ability
we
do
have
the
authority
to
to
adjust
rates
in
alignment.
Like
I
said,
with
those
rate
setting
guidelines
and
and
with
the
various
criteria
they've
been
set
out
to
below
a
certain
threshold,
we
reduce
above
a
certain
threshold.
We
we
increase.
G
D
B
Great
thank
you
for
that.
We'll
move
along
to
council
menard.
F
Thanks
very
much
chair,
I
had
some
questions
around
the
eevee
piece
as
well,
but
I
don't
need
to
go
into
that.
Counselor
flurry
got
into
that.
Thank
you
to
staff
for
this
report
very,
very
helpful
and
I
just
wanted
to
say
a
big
thank
you
for
some
of
the
the
changes
that
you
looked
at
in
terms
of
the
mandate
and
the
the
bullets
in
there.
So
thank
you,
scott
to
you
and
your
team
for
leading
those
conversations.
F
I
have
one
quick
question
just
around
the
the
new
hospital
and
the
parking.
That's
that's
coming
in
there
and
it's
it's
it's
more!
So
about
your
own
analysis
of
sort
of
the
the
effects
of
the
the
area
where
I
think
3
300
parking
spots
going
to
be
added
into
that
that
hospital
area
right,
carling
and
then
preston
area
and
so
just
be
really
interested
to
get
your.
F
You
know
your
own
analysis
of
it,
how
it
may
change
the
function
of
that
area
and
and
our
own
kind
of
push
for
more
alternative
transportation
options
with
that
with
that
new
civic
hospital.
Are
you
seeing
any
impacts
there?
Just
given
the
the
increase
in
parking
and
the
potential
offshoot
in
some
of
the
surrounding
neighborhoods.
G
Chair
this
is
certainly
something
that's
it's
on
our
radar.
There's
gonna
be
a
lot
of
change
within
that
area
for
the
hospital
and
then
the
redevelopment
of
the
a
lot
of
the
federal
lands
to
the
to
the
east.
So
we
it
is,
like
I
said,
certainly
on
our
radar.
We
are
engaged
with
the.
G
We
have
been
engaged
in
different
discussions
with
the
with
hospital
group,
and
it's
it's
a
little
early
to
you
know
to
see
any
any
tangible
impacts
of
that
that
development,
but
we
have
made
ourselves
available
to
you,
know,
provide
our
our,
I
guess
knowledge
and
and
expertise
into
any
analysis
to
help
to
both
manage
the
parking
but
also
mitigate
the
impacts.
F
That
that's
great
I'd
love
to
work
with
you,
and
I
know
that
you
know
there's
four
surrounding
counselors
there
mckenny
leeper,
brockington
and
myself-
that
I'm
sure
would
love
to
work
with
you
directly
and
then
the
hospital
and
how
we
can
encourage
all
types
of
modes
of
transportation
there
and
and
anything
we
can
do
in
terms
of
overlap
with
bike
strategy.
Or
you
know,
other
parking
issues
related
to
your
group,
be
nice
to
sit
down
and
just
go
through
that
together.
So
anyway.
B
H
Thanks
chair
thanks
for
this
scott,
this
is
many
years
coming
and
we've
had
I've
had
more
conversations
with
you
about
this
than
than
almost
anything
else
on
our
on
our
plate
on
council
for
the
last
five
six
years,
when
you
know,
I
think,
when
we,
when
we
think
about
you,
know
parking
parking
revenue
and-
and
you
know
what
and
we've
expanded-
and
I
think
this
is
something
that
total
kudos
to
stop
like
kind
of
expanded.
H
H
What
that
means-
and
so
I
you
know-
I'm
I'm
encouraged
by
by
where
we're
where
we're
headed
with
this,
and
and
thank
you
for
the
report,
the
I
guess
that
the
one
question
I
have
and
I've
never
I'm
never
sure
why
it
doesn't
contribute
to
this
type
of
investment,
and
maybe
it
does
so.
You
know
we've
got
like
carling
avenue
where
we're
right
now.
You
know
the
four
of
us
who
border
on
carling
are
are
trying
desperately
to
find
a
few
thousand
dollars
just
to
put
a
temporary
bike
lane.
H
That's
meant
to
go
there
on
on
carling
for
for
safe
cycling
infrastructure.
I
think
we're
looking
for
like
twelve
thousand
dollars
or
something
you
know,
other
things
like
widening
sidewalks.
You
know
during
the
pandemic.
H
H
H
G
So
chair,
unfortunately,
we
are
constrained
by
the
municipal
act,
parking
fee
revenues
as
a
as
a
user
fee.
The
requirement
is
that
they
could
be
spent
on
on
parking.
I
guess
to
to
simplify
it.
So
our
our
test,
when,
when
determining
you
know
whether
we
can
spend
parking
revenues
is
for
stats
to
align
with
the
municipal
park
management
strategy
and
there
has
to
be
a
reasonable
connection
to
parking.
G
So
we
went
through
a
a
fairly,
I
would
say
an
exhaustive
effort
with
the
parking
management
strategy
refresh
in
2019
to
broaden
that
and
that,
as
as
far
as
we
could
right
and
and
expand
our
you
know,
funding
for
things
like
bike
parking
right,
whereas
we
were
just
in
paid
areas
before
now,
we've
we've
increased
our
ability
to
spend
it
in
in
different
areas
right
paid
or
otherwise.
So
we
do
have
that
that
limitation,
which
does
exclude
the
spending
of
revenues
on
on
projects
similar
to
the
ones
you're
referencing.
H
No,
I
I
appreciate
the
constraints
that
you're
under
so
perhaps
it's
finding
a
way
to
get
changes
to
the
municipal
act,
so
that
I
mean
you
know
we're
we're
talking
about
building
more
parking
structures,
and
you
know
not
using
it
for
things
that
are
more
sustainable
and
safer
and
you
know
get
people
around
in
in
different
ways.
So,
okay,
I
appreciate
that.
I
just
thought
I
would
ask
out
loud
thanks
scott
thanks.
B
Chair,
hey
great
thanks,
catherine,
and
that's
all
the
questions
I
see.
I
want
to
thank
scott.
The
fact
that
we
only
had
a
few
questions
show
us
how
much
work
in
advance.
You've
done
to
really
brief
brief.
All
of
our
council
colleagues,
so
I
want
to
thank
you
for
that.
So,
on
on
that
report,
is
that
report
received.
B
Received
thank
you
very
much
for
that.
We
have
no
notices
of
motion,
no
inquiries,
no
other
business,
so
the
next
meeting
will
take
place
august.
4Th
2021,
get
your
red
shirts
on
and
enjoy
the
nice
warm
day
today.
