A
Good
morning,
good
morning,
ladies
and
gentlemen,
if
we
could
bring
ourselves
to
attention,
welcome
to
the
Transportation
Committee
meeting
for
Wednesday
the
4th
of
September,
we
have
regrets
from
Callister,
lulav
and
I
believe
councilor
Dean's
as
well
confirmation
of
the
minutes
from
minutes
three
carried
carry.
Thank
you.
A
B
Mr.
chair
councillors
and,
ladies
and
gentlemen,
my
name
is
Frank
van
der
Linde
I'm
with
the
Ministry
of
Transportation.
Sorry,
my
name
is
Frank
van
der
Linde
I'm,
the
area
manager
with
Minister
of
Transportation
and
we're
here
today
with
our
consultant
BTE
engineering
represented
by
Steve
Taylor
and
Darcy
Dylan,
to
talk
to
you
about
our
preliminary
design
study
for
what
we're
calling
the
downtown
bridges
on
the
Queensway.
So
with
that
I
think
I'll
pass
it
over
to
Steve
to
through
you,
mr.
chair,
to
do
the
presentation.
C
What
I'm
going
to
describe
is
the
miniature
transportations,
classi
a
process
for
doing
new
infrastructure
or
revitalization
of
new
infrastructure,
and
what
I'm
going
to
do
is
focus
on
really
the
recommendations
of
the
study
so
to
introduce
the
project.
It's
a
preliminary
design
environment
assessment
study
to
come
up
with
a
plan
for
aging
infrastructure,
one
of
the
Queen's
of
it.
C
So
the
work
programme
was
to
come
up
with
a
bridge
management
plan
for
the
seven
bridges.
So
there's
a
bridge
focused
EA
study
he'd
had
consultation
with
the
adjacent
neighborhoods
we
delivered
flyers
in
the
study
area.
We
had
two
public
meetings
to
show
alternatives,
as
well
as
recommended
projects
and
at
the
end
of
the
process.
What
we're
looking
for
is
environmental
clearance
for
the
ministry
to
carry
forward
construction
of
these
in
the
future.
C
So
the
first
bridge
types
are
the
rigid
frame
bridges.
So
these
are
the
smaller
ones
to
go
across
the
municipal
streets,
so
there's
five
bridges
in
four
different
locations
and
one
of
the
bridges
that
has
no
joint
in
the
middle.
So
it's
a
one
bridge
across
both
eastbound
and
westbound
lanes.
The
bridge
was
constructed
in
the
early
1960s
or
nearing
the
end
of
their
service
life
they're
originally
designed
for
50
to
60
years
service
life.
They
perform
very
well
in
that
duration,
but
there's
a
plan
for
the
future.
C
The
work
included,
considering
the
condition
the
existing
bridges
they're
in
fairly
good
condition.
There
has
been
some
deterioration
in
locations
and
the
scope
of
the
the
study
was
to
define
what
we
would
do
in
the
future
and
that
included
both
a
short
short
term
strategies
for
holding
strategies
until
a
project
can
be
delivered
as
well
as
assessing
booked
it
real,
notation
and
replacement,
has
either
conventional
or
rapid
replacement
projects
and
that
work
considered
the
traffic
effects
of
those
two
approaches
to
rapid
replacement.
C
So
some
of
the
issues
in
the
study
are
around
these
bridges
form
constraints
for
making
decisions.
The
city
has
a
major
transmission
water
service
through
the
area
plan
is
either
accommodated,
avoid
it
staging
area
for
the
bridges.
One
of
the
bridges
feels
here
is
making
use
of
Valentine
Park
property
impacts
for
Jason
landowners,
where
work
is
going
to
be
in
direct
conflict
with
their
properties.
Look
at
the
detour
routes
for
all
modes
of
transportation,
consideration
of
the
freeway
closures
for
the
rapid
replacement
projects
and
then
accommodating
cycling
through
the
area.
C
So
the
recommendations
for
the
richer
frame
locations
is
replace
each
of
the
bridges
it.
It
will
provide
a
long,
durable
structure
that
can
avoid
a
future
replacement
project
when
traffic
volumes
are
actually
higher.
It's
been
the
consistent
recommendation
for
all
all
the
locations
and
it's
partially
because
we
have
actually
locations
for
the
rapid
replacement
staging
areas,
and
that
was
part
of
the
decision-making
process,
so
this
project
actually
is
parallel
to
a
project.
C
The
ministry
completed
I
managed
for
the
Midtown
bridges
from
Holland
to
O'connor,
and
these
are
the
next
set
of
bridges
to
the
west
and
the
contact
sensor.
Design
approach
is
consistent
with
the
23
bridges
that
were
considered
to
the
to
the
West,
so
they'll
be
new,
concrete
bridges.
They'll
have
some
architectural
features
consistent
with
the
corridor
and
include
a
new
lighting
as
well
as
landscaping
on
that.
The
four
quadrants
of
the
bridge.
C
So
I
described
there.
One
of
the
reasons
for
the
replacement
was
that
we
actually
had
a
replacement
locations
to
build
this,
the
new
bridges.
So
these
are,
we
had
a
long
list
of
locations
for
staging
areas,
and
these
were
the
ones
that
were
selected,
then
close
proximity
to
them,
the
bridges
so
for
Metcalf
and
algo
streets
we
have
three
locations
that
will
be
used
for
both
the
construction
of
staging
areas
as
well
as
contractor
lay
down
areas.
So
those
are
e
1,
2,
&
3
on
ministry
on
Lam.
C
There
is
one
key
one
e
location,
while
we've
shown
a
widening
of
the
ministries
area
for
the
staging
area,
taking
one
of
the
parking
lanes
on
Catherine
Street,
which
is
currently
used
for
parking,
so
the
main
street.
So
this
would
be
the
eastern
of
in
the
rigid
frame
locations.
We've
identified,
two
staging
area
sites,
an
M,
1
and
M
4,
so
M
4
is
owned
by
the
administer
transportation.
M
1
is
City
of
Ottawa
Valentine
Park
and
it
will
become
the
location
for
building
the
new
bridges
in
advance
of
the
rapper
relocation.
C
The
black
line
around
inside
that
square,
there's
smaller
squares,
which
are
actually
the
new
bridges
that
will
be
built
in
mark
in
on
the
weekend,
for
the
rapid
replacement
they'll,
be
driven
in
the
into
place
off
of
the
right
of
that
figure
shows
the
second
staging
area
and
it
is
owned
by
the
ministry
and
it
would
be
location.
The
existing
Raiders
could
be
removed,
pulled
out
park.
C
All
the
new
bridges
are
driven
into
place,
so
the
effect
of
that
travel
route
and
that
travel
route
has
been
selected
to
avoid
crossing
the
city's
1200
millimeter
water
main
we'll
go
through
existing
commercial
properties,
they're
owned
by
the
same
owner.
We've
met
with
the
owner,
it's
a
willing
seller
and
with
the
acquisition
it
would
be
maintained
as
populum
by
nto,
but
that
is
a
technical
recommendation
to
travel
through
those
properties
that
to
reach
the
bridge.
C
C
The
Rideau
Canal
Bridge
is
probably
a
more
condition
than
the
the
richer
frame
sites.
It
was
a
an
innovative
design
at
the
time
it
got.
Slender
appears
in
the
existing
peers
are
all
in
the
canal
and
it
was
desirable
for
both
of
our
federal
partners
to
see
if
there
was
alternatives
to
remove
the
piers
from
the
via
canal
is
part
of
the
the
future
project,
and
that
has
actually
been
part
of
the
technical
recommendations.
C
So
the
next
slide
just
shows
our
architectural
running
of
the
proposed
replacement
structure.
It
will
pull
the
piers
out
of
the
water
they'll,
be
back
behind
the
multi-use
paths
on
the
two
banks.
It
will
have
a
little
bit
more
opening
at
the
two
abutments
and
it
would
be
a
completely
new
replacement
bridges.
So
there'll
be
two
one
for
the
eastbound
lanes
and
one
for
the
westbound
lanes.
C
So
the
effects
of
constructing
that
bridge
project
is
there'll,
be
two
properties,
they'll
be
removed
and
we've
met
with
the
owner.
There's
a
single
owner
for
these
two
properties
and
they'll
be
part
of
the
construction
area
to
actually
access
the
bridge,
so
that
is
the
the
Royal
Oak
pub
and
that
commercial
building
to
the
to
the
east
of
the
pub.
C
So
this
is
the
plan
view
looking
down
from
the
sky
of
the
Rideau
Canal
replacement.
So
in
the
blue
boxes.
What
you
see
is
that's
the
location.
The
new
bridges
will
be
built.
There
is
they'll,
be
temporary
piers
that
will
be
built
to
allow
sliding
of
the
new
bridge
into
place
and
on
a
single
weekend
the
existing
bridge
will
be
removed
and
dropped
in
the
canal,
and
the
new
bridges
will
be
slid
into
place
and
it
it's
a
large
it's
a
large
product
and
it
our
the
the
Queensway
to
be
closed.
C
In
the
in
the
plan,
we
you
can
see
some
black
symbols
on
both
north
and
south
sides
of
the
the
Queensway,
those
of
you
cream
pads
and
the
crane
pads
will
be
used
to
bring
materials
into
the
new
bridge
locations,
so
they'll
be
delivery
of
beams
that
will
come
in
and
then
be
moved
over
the
blue
areas.
The
cranes
are
also
be
in
place
for
the
demolition
of
the
existing
bridge.
It'll
be
dropped
down.
C
C
So
come
to
the
conclusion
of
the
study,
it's
been
a
two-year
planning
process
engaged
with
the
community,
this
fall
or
early
winter,
and
we
expect
to
have
the
informal
assessment.
That's
our
transportation
of
our
whole
study
report
of
elephant
look
reviewed.
Any
member
of
the
public
that
has
participated
will
be
advised
the
review
period
for
for
that
document,
and
the
last
part
is
that
that
construction
has
not
been
finalized.
A
Thank
you
very
much
for
that
presentation
and
I'm
sure
there
are
questions
before
we
get
to
that
very
quickly.
I
did
not
ask
at
the
beginning
of
the
meeting
if
there
were
any
declarations
of
interest,
so
committee
members
are
there
any
declarations
of
conflict
of
interests,
seeing
none.
Thank
you
very
much.
Just
before
we
go
to
committee,
I
have
a
quick
question.
If
would
you
mind
going
back
to
the
slide
that
had
the
cross
section
of
going
underneath
one
of
the
bridges
with
the
sidewalk
and
the
cycling
facility
in
the
vehicle
lanes.
A
Yeah
perfect
so,
as
we've
been
redeveloping
roads,
our
engineering
team
and
our
finance
team
has
told
us
that
building
a
raised
cycle
track,
in
addition
to
it
being
safer,
is
also
less
expensive
and
so
I'm
wondering
in
an
era
of
provincial
austerity.
Why
are
we
not
or
why
are
you
not
choosing
to
do
the
safer,
cheaper
option
underneath
the
bridges
so.
C
I'll
just
I'll
answer
that
first,
but
as
part
of
the
planning
process
we've
engaged.
The
city
is
part
of
a
municipal
technical
advisory
committee
and
at
the
bridge
locations
that
we've
gone,
we
haven't
recommended
to
change
this
ban
because
of
the
cost
and
complexity
of
change
in
the
founding
condition
of
the
bridge
on
a
normal
Road,
it
is
actually
cheaper
to
start
constructing
the
the
raise
cycle
tracks
is
most
putting
on
their
boat
surface,
but
in
this
location
we've
been
constrained
by
but
applied
the
50-year
bridges
that
are
have
been
built.
C
The
algĂșn
Street
bridge
is
the
one
that
has
the
has
had
the
most
significant
issues
over
the
life
of
that
bridge.
It
has
had
significant
settlement
that
occurred
right
from
the
very
beginning,
and
we
we
tagged
a
very
high
price
I
to
try
to
change
the
low-key
of
the
existing
puddings
from
the
pre
consolidated
locations
that
has
been
for
the
last
life
of
the
bridge.
D
Very
much
chair
and
yeah
I
had
a
similar
question
around
that
I've
met
with
you
folks,
before
I've
gone
through
a
consultation
process
as
well
in
the
community.
So
thank
you
for
doing
that
and
have
talked
with
staff.
Obviously
about
this
this
project,
just
off
the
back.
Can
you
say:
are
these
slides
all
available
to
us
as
well?
Can
you
they,
if
they
aren't,
they
will
be
after
the
meeting?
D
Okay,
thank
thanks
very
much
the
you
mentioned
the
fall
event
after
the
canal
is
closed
or
anticipating
somewhere
in
2040,
2024,
2025,
and
so
that,
but
the
three
weeks
shot
down
will
be
in
the
fall,
is
when
you're,
anticipating
of
many
of
the
local
roots
and
the
and
the
Queensway.
Is
that
correct?
Is
it
the
local
roots
and
the
Queensway,
or
just
the
Queen's
I
shut
down
for
so.
C
The
project
will
be
led
as
one
four-year
contract.
No
one
bridge
will
be
closed
at
the
same
time,
so
only
one
of
the
bridge
locations
we've
done
it
at
a
single
time
and
the
Rideau
Canal
is
the
only
one
that
has
to
go
in
the
fall
tied
to
the
winter
shutdown.
The
other
bridges
could
be
in
at
different
years
and
they
could
be
in
a
different
weekend
that
the
Rideau
Canal
is
the
one
that
has
to
be
tied
to
that.
Okay.
So.
D
D
Bridges,
okay,
put
into
place:
okay
thanks
very
much.
The
the
Ballentine
Park
piece
of
this
is
interesting,
because
where
should
we
struggle
with
a
corner
there,
where
the
governance,
the
the
business
you're
talking
about,
we
struggle
with
the
corner
that
I've
talked
to
staff
about
this
in
terms
of
our
cycle,
lanes
or
cycle
tracks
are
walking
through
there,
and
so
when
the
project
is
completed,
it's
been
my
ask
in
my
whole
that
we
get
a
better
infrastructure
put
in
for
a
cycling
option
there
it's
right
now.
D
It's
unsafe,
as
it
is,
is
my
view
and
so
I'd
be
very
interested
to
know
the
timing
for
for
sort
of
taking
it
back
after
you're
done
using
the
park.
What
will
end
up
there,
and
so,
as
you
know,
the
project
that
we're
undertaking
right
now
is
a
Main
Street,
renewal,
Green
Greenfield
renewal
and
that's
happening
before
this
takes
place.
D
It
looks
like
the
timings
gonna
be
that
this
is
going
to
come
after
that's
already
done,
which
in
some
ways
is,
is
great,
but
the
coordination
of
some
of
these
pinch
points
that
exists
is
going
to
be
very
important
to
Courtney
with
our
city
staff,
to
make
sure
we
get
the
right
result
at
the
end
of
the
day.
So
I
just
want
to
flag
that
with
you,
particularly
around
the
Valentine
Park
piece.
You
said
you
have
confirmation
with
all
the
owners
along
Hawthorne.
Now
is
that
right,
everyone
has
given
confirmation
of
everybody's.
D
D
That's
great
and
I'm
hoping
we
can
have
a
separate
meeting
specifically
on
this.
These
are
mostly
in
my
community
yeah,
there's
a
little
bit
another
council
committee,
but
I'd
like
to
have
a
separate
meeting
with
you
just
a
discussion
offline,
if
that's
possible,
if
we
can
set
that
up
yep
today,
that'd
be
great.
Thank
you.
E
B
Through
you,
mr.
chair,
we,
we
do
indeed
have
a
long-term
plan
for
the
Queensway,
as,
as
you
well
know,
the
the
Queensway
has
been
worked
on
for
over
a
decade.
Now,
where
we've
been
steadily
replacing
bridges.
This
project
is
one
of
those
projects.
We
have
a
project
in
detail,
design
right
now
and
it
involves
the
de
Preston
to
Percy
stretch
of
bridges.
B
As
you
know,
a
lot
of
the
bridges
east
of
here
have
been
replaced
like
Lee's
Avenue
Vanier
also
serve
all
those
have
also
been
replaced
already
and
we're
working
our
way
out
toward
the
East
End's
with
the
city.
Right
now,
the
Rams
evil,
Road
bridges
are
being
replaced.
So,
yes,
we
to
answer
your
question.
We
do
have
a
long
term
plan
for
the
entire
Queensway
is.
E
B
Through
you,
mr.
chair,
yes,
absolutely
that's
that's
available.
It's
it's
a
it's
a
living
plan,
obviously
the
as
we
you
know
get
into
different
priorities.
It
does
include
components,
for
example,
the
the
noise
barriers
along
the
Queensway
that
need
to
get
replaced
and,
and
so
there's
a
lot
to
this,
is
this
plan
and
I'd
be
more
than
willing
to
share
that
with
you,
okay,.
B
Mr.
chair,
absolutely
the
the
work
that
has
been
happening
on
illness
has
had
a
huge
impact
on
traffic.
We've
been
working
together
with
city
staff
to
try
to
minimize
the
impacts,
I
think
what
what
we
have
out
there
now
is
it's
different
phases
that
the
the
version
goes
through,
but
right
now
it's
the
most
efficient
way
of
doing
things
at
the
moment,
but
we
are
more
or
less
in
continuous
or
continual
contact
with
city
staff
to
monitor
traffic
and
to
to
try
to
make
adjustments
as
we
as
we
can
so.
B
F
Thanks
chair
and
I'm,
sorry
I
want
to
come
back
to
councillor
blaze.
The
initial
question
with
respect
to
cycling
and
pedestrian
improvements
under
the
under
passes.
I
I
didn't
quite
understand
your
reply
to
that
so
I'm
taking
a
look
at
Elgin
Street
and
that's
a
really
hostile,
cycling
and
pedestrian
environment
underneath
there
what
is
preventing
that
from
being
rebuilt
with
wider
sidewalks
and
cycle
tracks,.
C
So
the
algĂșn
Street
Bridge
has
a
history
of
very
poor
soil
conditions.
It
it
had
major
consolidation,
even
in
the
1960s,
when
the
first
bridge
was
built,
there's
complexity.
If
we
tried
to
change
the
span
of
that
bridge
and
we
have
we've
reviewed,
we
put
up
pretty
high
price
tag
on
it,
I'm
not
sure
what
the
number
is
exactly
and
and
we've
recommended
that
it
not
be
widened,
and
if
there
was
there
was
other
means
of
providing
cycling
connections
that
should
be
considered,
but
we
did
take
a
look
at
it
right
now.
C
C
F
F
G
Thank
You
mr.
chair
I
just
want
to
clarify
I'm
trying
to
follow
you
I
understand.
There's
a
Metcalfe
bridge,
section
I
understand:
there's
a
Main
Street
one
I
understand,
there's
one
over
the
canal.
That
I
count
that
as
three
bridges,
maybe
from
a
technical
point
of
view.
It
isn't
but
am
I.
Are
we
missing
other
crossings?
No.
C
C
A
E
Good
morning,
members
of
Transportation
Committee
I'm,
Lila
Gibbons
and
the
director
roads
and
parking
services
chair,
we
were
here
today
to
present
our
recommendations
of
the
municipal
parking
management
strategy
and
the
results
of
the
governance
review.
I'm
joined
today
by
Miss
Franklin
of
MNP,
who
was
hired
to
complete
an
independent
governance
review
she's
here
today
to
speak
to
emaan
P's
recommendations,
I'm
also
joined
by
Scott
Caldwell,
who
is
the
area
manager
of
transit,
weight
and
parking
services,
and
he
manages
their
parking
program.
E
The
parking
strategy
refresh
included
a
review
of
municipal
parking
management
strategy
mandate,
funding
model
rate
setting
guidelines
and
our
governance
structure.
The
approach
and
the
recommendations
that
we
are
presenting
to
you
today
are
the
results
of
the
consultation
with
the
parking
stakeholder
consultation
group.
This
group
consists
of
members
of
the
BIA
s
the
community
associations
and
other
external
organizations.
H
Thank
You
Laura
chair
members
of
Transportation
Committee,
the
municipal
park
management
strategy,
was
approved
by
council
in
2009
through
extensive
consultation
that
clarified
the
purpose
of
the
paid
parking
program
and,
in
doing
so
clarified
the
prioritization
of
service
delivery
over
revenue
generation,
and
this
means
that
paid
parking
is
viewed
and
utilized
as
a
tool
to
manage
parking
demand
issues,
parking,
abandoned
parking
ban
issues.
The
funding
model
contained
within
that
strategy
also
aligns
with
the
miss
blocks,
which
has
general
provisions
related
to
where
user
fees
and
user
fee
revenues
can
be
spent.
H
Lyla
mentioned
the
parking
stakeholder
consultation
group,
and
it
was
this-
was
a
key
outcome
of
the
2009
strategy,
this
that
in
2009
we
saw
the
creation
of
that
group
and
I'll
elaborate
a
little
bit
more
on
their
involvement
in
this
refresh
process
in
a
minute.
So
the
purpose
of
the
refresh
the
strategy
refresh
is
to
ensure
that
10
years
later,
that
we've
our
mandate
and
our
objectives
and
our
the
key
components
of
the
strategy
are
current
and
now
we're
able
to
address
the
key
issues
that
have
emerged
over
that
time.
A.
H
Governance
review
was
incorporated
as
part
of
the
strategy,
refresh
primarily
in
response
to
council
direction.
In
terms
of
the
process,
it
was
important
to
reset
the
mandate
and
arrive
at
provisional
outcomes
before
embarking
on
the
governance
review
and
then
in
terms
of
actually
undertaking
in
the
governance
review.
This
is
where
we
engaged
M&P
to
conduct
that
independent
assessment.
H
So,
as
with
the
original
strategy,
now,
a
consultation
was
a
critical
part
of
this
process.
Again,
the
consultation
group
was
a
serves
as
a
focus
group
throughout
this
process.
Normally
we
meet
with
this
group
three
or
four
times
a
year
from
January
2018
to
August
of
this
year.
We
met
with
them
total
of
10
times
walking
through
each
step
of
the
process.
Just
for
reference
on
the
right
hand,
part
of
the
slide
is
identifies
the
membership
of
that
consultation
group.
H
So
that
was
not
the
extent
of
the
consultation
through
this
process,
however,
we
did
undertake
in
three
public
open
houses
and
also
coordinated
an
online
survey
that
was
promoted
through
social
media,
and
that
was
earlier
this
year.
Beyond
that
there
were
additional
consultations
that
took
place
through
the
BIA
s
and
other
external
groups
to
complete
that
consultation.
H
So,
as
a
part
of
the
refresh,
we
reviewed
all
aspects
of
the
strategy.
You
know
we
knew
our
video
said
that
there
would
be
specific
things
to
address
and
resolve
first
with
the
mandate.
Ten
years
later,
ten
years
after
the
original
strategy
was
approved,
we
needed
to
ensure
that
the
objectives
and
the
policy
statements
were
up-to-date
and
I
alternate
Li.
If
there
were
any
substantial
changes
required,
we
for
the
funding
model,
we
understood
there
to
be
a
desire
for
flexibility,
considering
the
status,
the
status
of
the
parking
reserve
fund
and
regular
surpluses
parking
few
revenues.
H
So
we
sought
that
flexibility,
while
also
needing
the
respect
the
municipal
act
for
rate
setting.
There
were
a
couple
things
that
we
needed
to
address
the
first
being
our
ability
to
follow
through
on
implementing
paid
parking
currently
in
order
to
change
rates
at
all
on
streets
or
implements,
and
that
includes
the
implementation
of
paid
parking.
We
require
concurrence
from
the
ward
councillors,
the
BIA
and
the
Community
Association
in
order
to
proceed,
and
that
has
created
some
some
barriers
along
the
way
connected
to.
H
H
The
obstacle
we
had
was
that
we
would
base
those
rate
change
decisions
on
studies
which
are
fairly
comprehensive
and
take
a
significant
period
of
time
to
undertake,
and
the
reality
is
is
that
we
would
be
able
to
do
a
study
in
an
area
and
not
get
back
to
that
area
for
a
number
of
years.
So
we
need,
we
were
looking
for
something
that
was
more
responsive.
That
would
allow
us
to
respond
to
address
changing
the
conditions
in
in
each
area
and
then
with
the
governance
piece.
H
The
objectives
of
the
program
were
developed
early
in
the
process
through
the
parking
stakeholder
consultation
group,
and
these
were
validated
as
we
continue
through
the
process
and
the
first
thing
that
we
needed
to
identify
was
up.
Are
we
on
the
right
track
or
are
there
any
significant
changes
required?
And
we
arrived
at
these
revised
objectives,
policy
statements
with
the
parking
stakeholder
consultation
group
and
there
were
no
substantial
or
significant
changes
required.
H
So
moving
on
from
the
funding
Mallis
or
the
mandate
to
the
funding
model,
the
strategy,
the
existing
strategy
has
defined
revenues
and
expenses,
and
what
that
means
is
that
an
on
an
annual
basis.
Over
the
last
few
years,
our
revenues
have
been
roughly
seventeen
and
a
half
million
dollars
and
then
our
operating
expenses,
roughly
at
twelve
and
a
half
million
dollars
and
there's
capital
costs
beyond
that
as
well.
H
So
any
surplus
year
year
is
allocated
to
our
parking
reserve
fund
and
year-end
balance
at
the
end
of
2018
was
just
under
twenty
four
million
dollars
and
our
average
contributions
over
the
last
three
years
of
being
roughly
three
and
a
half
million
dollars
and
to
clarify
going
back
to
the
operating
expenses
to
silver.
Half
of
those
expenses
are
actually
on
costs
that
relate
to
parking
but
are
allocated
to
other
departments
so
roads
when
it
comes
to
the
maintenance
of
on
street
parking
facilities
and
OC
Transpo
for
the
maintenance
of
Park
and
Ride
facilities.
H
We
have
the
ability
to
direct
it
to
capital
related
initiatives,
so
an
example
would
be
the
park
ride,
facilities,
but
also
a
life
cycle.
Spending
on
roads,
curbs
sidewalks,
specifically
within
paid
parking
areas
and
there's
also,
we
undertook
a
process
as
part
of
the
recent
refresh
to
correct
the
transfer
that
we
we
allocate
the
roads
for
the
side.
Road
and
sidewalk
maintenance
costs.
H
We
do
not
have
the
same
concurrence
requirements
when
adjusting
rates
at
our
garages
and
our
service
slots,
and
we
have
a
regular
process
to
assess
some
Gesell's
rates
so
that
we
are
ensuring
available
short-term
parking
and
trying
to
dissuade
long-term
parking
at
the
same
time
with
respect
to
on
Street.
First
off
the
ability
to
implement
paid
parking
and
what
is
being
recommended
is
the
removing
that
of
the
concurrence
requirement.
That's
currently
within
the
delegation
of
authority
by
law
and
we're
moving
from
the
BIA
Community
Association
and
the
ward
councillor.
H
H
This
is
catching
up
as
I
said
more
than
10
years,
and
if
we
apply
inflation
over
those
10
years
since
2008
we
arrive
I
believe
it
is
at
3
dollars
and
55
cents,
so
we're
we're
accounting
for
that
I'm.
At
the
same
time,
what
we're
proposing
is
to
identify
a
maximum
on-street
rate
of
$4
now,
or
this
does
not
imply
that
any
areas
will
be
moved
to
$4
an
hour
immediately.
H
So
other
outcomes
from
a
strategy
refresh
so
we've
revised
our
terms
of
reference
for
both
the
local
area.
Parking
studies,
which
is
a
key
mechanism,
is
something
that
we
rely
on
as
well
as
for
the
parking
stakeholder
consultation
group,
and
this
involves
updates
and
adjustments
to
each
of
those
pieces.
H
I
Good
morning,
so,
as
you
heard
earlier,
in
December
2018
staff
directed
our
pardon
me,
council,
directed
staff
to
explore
and
evaluate
the
options
around
a
governance
model
and
M&P,
which
I
represent
here
today,
was
engaged
to
undertake
an
independent
governance
review.
Today,
I'm
going
to
present
two
there's
three
Creek
quick
pieces
in
summary
of
our
of
our
governance
review.
I
We
then
established
a
set
of
11
criteria
that
were
built
upon
the
outcomes
of
the
NPMs
and
the
desired
governance
models
model
going
forward
for
that
and
then
based
upon
that,
we
engaged
in
an
evaluation
that
ranked
against
those
11
established
criteria.
Each
of
the
three
options
that
we
developed
and
further
we
added
in
addition
to
that,
a
full
sort
of
examination
of
the
elements
within,
as
well
as
the
ranking
as
a
score,
and
then
we
arrived
at
a
recommended
model
from
that
recommended
model.
We
then
engaged
in
a
review
of
integration
options.
I
There
were
two
that
were
developed
and
and
then
refine
the
outcomes
based
on
those
in
terms
of
the
three
options
option.
One
is
essentially
a
modified
status
quo
is
another
way
of
referring
to
this,
and
the
greatest
change
here
is
that
it
implies
that
all
of
the
recommendations
presented
in
the
NPMs
updates
are
adopted.
The
greatest
thing
that
that
does
in
terms
of
some
of
the
changes
in
terms
as
they.
I
What
we
define
is
meanness
as
modified
pardon
me
is
that
it
removes
the
concurrence
requirement
around
around
the
parking
services
that
thereby
create
more
and
changed
the
ranking
there
by
option.
2
is
similar
to
option
1,
but
the
accountability
and
oversight
related
to
parking
services
then
falls
under
a
board
of
directors,
as
opposed
to
City,
which
it
is
in
option
1.
I
Both
options
wanted
to
still
fall
within
the
municipal
act
constraints
and
then,
when
we
look
at
option
3,
that
is
a
separate
corporation
which
thereby
moves
the
parking
services
under
the
oversight
and
accountability
of
that
separate
arms-length
corporation
structure,
and
it
also
thereby
removes
that
that
municipal
service
corporation
from
the
constraints
of
the
Municipal
Act
after
the
evaluation
that
we
conducted
against
those
11
criteria
and
the
further
examination
therein.
We
discovered
that
or
we
we
recommend
that
option.
I
The
two
scenarios
in
terms
of
integration
are
a
and,
as
is
scenario
so,
keeping
parking
services
and
enforcement
services
separate
and
B,
which
is
integrating
parking
services
and
enforcement
services.
The
reason
for
the
consideration
of
these
two
service
areas
is
that
they
have
the
greatest
degree
of
alignment
in
terms
of
functional
in
terms
of
the
functions
that
they
perform.
There
are
actually
five
different
areas
within
M
PMS
and
an
MP
MP,
and
thereby
M
PMS
that
have
alignment,
but
the
greatest
fall
within
enforcement
and
parking
services.
I
The
conclusion
of
the
of
the
investigation
into
the
integration
scenarios
is
that
the
business
case
supports
adopting,
as
we
found
governance
model,
one
which
is
the
modified
municipal
service
delivery
model
and
thereby
supports
the
scenario.
A
as
is
scenario
where
enforcement
and
parking
services
are
kept
separate
again,
because
it
has
the
strongest
business
case
in
terms
of
the
degree
of
change
and
cost
and
the
benefit
that's
involved.
So
the
greatest
benefit
with
the
least
degree
of
disruption.
A
A
A
So
effectively
we
have
a
road
safety
action
plan
that
is
coming
forward.
It
will
make
several
recommendations
and
will
be
very
expensive.
The
revenues
to
fund
those
programs
will
take
some
time
to
come
in
as
because
they're
coming
from
automated
enforcement,
which
we're
rolling
out
over
a
number
of
years
and
to
ensure
that
we
can
fund
those
important
projects,
we'll
use
the
reserve.
That
is
returned
to
the
accounts
to
accelerate
the
financing
of
that
program
which
will
come
to
committee
later
this
year.
And
so
with
that
we'll
go
to
speakers.
A
J
Good
morning
now,
good
morning,
counselors
I
would
like
to
speak
today
to
the
municipal
parking
management
strategy
refresh
and
I'm
speaking
on
behalf
of
the
Wellington
West
Business
Improvement
area,
and
our
my
slide
is
going
to
be
coming
up.
Sorry
because
there's
some
good
ones,
I,
don't
want
you
to
miss
those.
A
J
Arrow
there
we
go
I'm
getting
a
sense
of
deja
vu
today
appearing
before
you,
because
the
last
time
I
was
here
speaking
to
Transportation
Committee,
was
in
2008
speaking
to
almost
exactly
the
same
topic
and
asking
for
you
to
make
some
additional
considerations.
In
2008,
the
our
in
2007
into
2008
paid
parking
was
being
recommended
for
Hintonburg,
specifically
as
the
result
of
a
deeply
flawed
and
badly
executed
parking
study.
J
That
was
done
at
that
time
and
it
became
very
clear
and
very
quickly
and
actually
the
city
manager,
Kent
Kirkpatrick
admitted
this
to
us
and
apologized
to
us
afterwards.
That
revenues
were
what
we're
driving
parking
decisions
at
the
City
of
Ottawa,
and
we
objected
to
that-
and
we
said
Hintonburg
right
now-
is
going
through
a
very
economically
depressed
time
and
we're
about
to
face
a
road
reconstruction
one
year
from
now,
and
at
that
time
they
would
have
installed
physical
parking
meters
one
year
before
a
road
reconstruction.
So
we
said
it's
clearly
not
the
time.
J
Clearly,
there's
no
strategy
for
dealing
with
this,
not
now
not
in
Hintonburg.
The
second
thing
that
we
said
at
that
time
was:
we
wanted
some
sort
of
municipal
parking
management
strategy
and
you
can
see
from
the
slide
that
I
pulled
up
in
2008.
I
was
asking
specifically,
and
we
were
asking
for
that
for
a
citywide
planning
strategy
that
took
into
account
service
delivery,
not
revenue
and
I
would
like
to
say
thank
you
to
the
council
as
a
whole
for
actually
taking
action
on
that,
and
certainly
can't
cut
Patrick.
J
J
Now,
before
I
go
any
further,
I
just
want
to
get
a
couple
of
things
off
the
table
here,
right
off
the
bat
just
as
in
2008.
We
are
not
here
arguing
against
paid
parking
in
Wellington
West
at
that
time
in
2008
we
were
saying
not
now
not
this
way,
and
today
we're
saying
paid
parking
is
coming,
and
although
many
of
my
members
would
like
me
to
say
no,
no,
no,
never
never.
Never.
J
We
understand
that
it's
part
of
the
municipal
strategy
and
that
it's
going
to
be
coming
to
our
neighborhood,
so
I'm,
not
here
to
say
no
to
it,
I'm,
also
not
asking
for
a
veto.
We
never
really
asked
for
that.
That
was
actually
a
good
intention
that
was
built
into
the
previous
parking
management
strategy
and,
of
course,
in
the
last
time
a
study
came
forward.
We
took
advantage
of
that
and-
and
we
said
not
now,
give
us
some
more
time.
We
understand
that
that
was
never
tenable
and
that
that
needs
to
disappear.
J
I
have
a
suggested
alternative.
I
think
we
went
too
far
with
that.
We're
asking
to
continue
our
partnership
really
quickly,
though
I
do
want
to
say
that,
while
we
got
to
2.0
with
the
parking
strategy
that
we
have,
that
we
had
in
that
time
and
I
think
there
are
some
efforts
to
improve
that
I'd
like
to
see
us
talking
more
about
municipal
parking
strategy.
J
3.0
I
think
the
current
proposal
gets
us
to
about
2.1
or
2.2
version,
I'd
like
to
get
to
3.0
and
the
the
principles
for
3.0
are
in
the
the
giant
book
of
paid
parking
strategy
by
Donald
Shoop
in
2011,
and
he
recommends
the
three
strategies
or
three
principles.
First,
to
have
a
successful
pay
parking
program,
charge
fair
market
prices
for
curb
parking
in
a
flexible
and
dynamic
way
that
responds
to
supply
and
demand
so
that
higher
demand
parking
is
charged
higher.
Lower
demand
is
parked
lower
its
charge
lower.
J
Second-
and
this
is
an
important
one-
that
actually
I
think
is
not
being
addressed
in
this
plan-
return
resulting
revenue
in
a
significant
way
to
the
neighborhoods
that
generate
it,
so
that
we,
the
Business
Improvement
areas,
are,
are
being
asked
to
absorb
paid
parking,
become
your
biggest
champions
so
that
we
can
actually
help
you
carry
it
forward.
That's
a
worldwide
principle.
J
There
are
chapters
and
chapters
of
great
examples
of
where
that
has
created,
not
just
more
acceptance,
but
has
led
to
creative
thinking
and
much
more
sort
of
innovative
results,
and
then
the
third
one
is
about
planning
and
I'll
leave
that
to
another
committee
here
of
council,
but
the
ultimate
bottom
line
and
the
principle
that
should
be
guiding
3.0
parking
management
strategy
in
this
city
is
not
service
delivery
over
revenue
generation.
We've
got
that
we're
done
with
that.
J
The
real
3.0
principle
is
from
Donald
sheeps
book,
which
is
subsidize
people
and
places
and
think
about
parking
as
an
integrated
part
of
neighborhood
building,
don't
think
about
it
as
a
way
to
store
cars
and
manage
the
flow
of
cars.
It
does
that,
but
if
you're
thinking
about
it
in
a
broader
way,
you're
going
to
be
doing
much
much
more
than
that
and
there's
a
much
bigger
opportunity.
J
So
in
terms
of
what's
being
proposed
today
and
what's
in
the
motion,
we
support
the
idea
of
charging
fair
market
prices
for
parking,
and
we
see
some
movement
in
that
direction,
with
the
50
cent
increments
up
and
down
and
the
rest
of
it
and
so
kudos
to
your
team
Scott
for
for
moving
towards
that.
But
what
we'd
really
like
to
see?
Much
more
of
is,
first
of
all,
technology
invest
in
the
next
generation
of
technology
and
we're
willing
to
be
your
pilot,
guinea
pigs
to
make
sure
it's
much
more
dynamic
and
flexible.
J
Secondly,
minimum
introductory
pricing,
when
paid
parking
is
integrated
into
an
area
set
an
absolute
minimum
at
cost
price
for
a
period
of
time
when
it's
integrated
into
new
neighborhood
a
to
encourage
more
acceptance
and
to
give
me
a
marketing
tool
but,
more
importantly,
to
generate
real
data
without
putting
the
threshold
of
a
high
priced
paid
parking
being
integrated
in
an
area
so
that
for
a
period
of
time,
we
can
get
as
much
data
as
possible
and
set
the
rates
where
they
belong
before
we
integrate
the
higher
threshold.
Thank.
A
J
F
J
On
the
next
slide,
really,
yes,
I,
think
I
know:
I
I
totally
support
the
idea
of
offering
more
revenue
to
be
IAS.
The
mechanism
of
the
grant,
though
I
think,
is
a
little
restrictive
and
it's
a
little
arbitrary
in
terms
of
saying
it's
a
$10,000
grant
the
two
principles
that
I
was
going
to
mention
in
in
the
next
slide.
Well,
what
we'd
like
to
see
more
of
is
dramatically
expand
the
amount
and
a
level
of
funding
available
to
local
local
areas
and
put
it
under
their
control.
What
that's
going
to
be?
J
What
that's
going
to
be
applied
to
I
understand?
There
are
restrictions
in
the
in
the
Municipal
Act
under
the
current
governance
structure
and
I
think
that
was
done
a
little
bit
back,
which
I'd
be
happy
to
talk
about
that
as
well,
but
the
other
one
is
just
that.
If
there's
going
to
be
funding
available,
it
has
to
be
scalable
to
the
area
that
it's
being
applied
to
Wellington
West.
J
Once
we
get
paid
parking
is
I'm,
almost
certain
going
to
have
more
paid
parking
spaces
than
any
other
neighborhood
in
Ottawa,
because
we
have
a
2.5
kilometre
linear,
Main,
Street,
larger
than
any
other
Main
Street
in
downtown
Ottawa,
and
we
also
have
a
vertical
going
up
to
Scott
and
down
to
the
Queensway.
So
Holland
Park
Dale,
Gladstone,
Byron,
Scott
Street
any
paid
parking,
that's
applied
on
any
of
those
areas
he's
going
to
be
there.
J
J
I
would
say
that
if
the
grant
is
the
only
thing
being
offered,
that
would
be
appropriate,
I
would
say
that
that
that
the
envelopes
should
be
much
larger.
There
should
be
a
much
larger
and
more
significant
mechanism
that
we
can
apply
to
things
like
streetscaping
beautification
to
other
improvements
in
the
area,
and
the
proposal
as
presented
on
the
screen
here,
was
suggesting
that
the
excess
revenues
from
that
the
reserve
fund
be
applied
to
road
safety
and
the
upcoming
road
safety
strategy
and
I.
Think
that
is,
is
wonderful.
J
It's
a
wonderful
goal
and
you
need
funding
for
that.
But
if
I
compare
the
direct
benefit
to
a
neighborhood
in
terms
of
economic
development
in
terms
of
beautification
in
terms
of
making
the
neighborhood
a
more
attractive
place
for
customers
to
come
to
offset
whatever
customers
wouldn't
be
coming
because
of
paid
parking,
that's
a
much
more
direct
benefit
and
a
much
more
direct
application
of
the
funding.
Suburban
parking
lots
for
parking
rides.
I
can
see
vague
benefits.
J
D
D
H
Chair
we,
the
particular
conservation
group,
will
persist
and
as
part
of
this
strategy
that
we're
putting
forward,
we
select
or
identify
a
new
membership
to
coincide
with
the
term
of
council
we've.
Let
this
one
lapse
to
conclude
with
this
process.
So,
following
this,
we
will
be
identifying
a
new
membership.
We
have
four
BIA
representatives
and
we
typically
engage
with
a
cobia
and
they
identify
which
four
BIA
representatives
they
would
like
to
feel
those
safety
I.
Just.
D
Strongly
encourage
people
that
to
have
the
knowledge
necessary
and
that
do
the
type
of
reading
that
we're
hearing
today
and
the
type
of
research
that's
been
done.
Such
a
strongly
encouraged
that
and
the
representor
like
dennis
beyond
there.
In
terms
of
your
comment
around
the
the
funding
that
is
produced
in
local
community
stays
in
local
communities.
There
is
an
objective
that
talks
about
prioritizing
short-term
parking,
that
responsibly
price
to
businesses,
institutions
and
tourism.
D
Presumably
it
would
make
sense
to
add
local
communities
into
that
objective
as
well.
I
assume
you,
you
mean
that
this
would
be
looked
at
as
part
of
the
Community
Association
other
local
representatives
in
the
group,
not
just
businesses
in
the
area,
but
actually
the
wider
community,
is
that
what
you're
referring
to.
J
Yeah
I
Walt,
the
the
improvement
of
the
neighborhood,
is
a
benefit
to
everyone
in
the
in
the
neighborhood
in
the
in
the
book.
He
talks
about
the
ideal
recipient
of
these
funds,
though,
and
manager
of
the
funds
would
be
an
organization
ization
like
a
Business
Improvement
area
or
Business
Improvement
District,
because
we
have
the
staff
and
the
mandates
to
men
and
and
the
funding
mechanism
with
the
city
to
carry
that
out,
and
we
would
do
that
in
consultation
with
our
with
our
local
stakeholders.
J
D
J
Yeah,
that's
the
there's
a
2.0
answer
to
three
point
of
the
answer.
The
the
parking
management
as
a
service
answer
is
managing
parking
means
people
are
circling,
circling
the
block,
less
they're,
getting
their
parking
spaces
sooner.
It
manages
congestion
in
a
mechanical
way
to
improve
the
situation
locally.
The
3.0
way,
though,
is
to
think
much
more
transformative
lis
about
how
those
funds
could
be
applied
to
easing
parking
more
directly,
so
I
mean.
If
you
asked
me,
would
you
prefer
to
be
spending
that
money
on
a
parking
lot
in
the
suburbs
or
offsetting
bus
fares?
J
E
J
J
Can
only
speak
for
the
last
couple
of
weeks,
but
yes,
we
have
started
to
and
we
are
planning
to.
But,
for
example,
we
had
our
taste
of
Wellington
West
Festival
on
September
21st.
We
saw
record
numbers
of
people
coming
from
outside
the
area.
We
had
sort
of
anecdotal
reports
of
crowds
of
people
walking
up
Wellington
towards
the
festival,
and
so
those
are
cars
that
never
came
into
the
area
in
the
first
place
and
that's
really
what
we
would
want
to
occur,
encourage
for
sure.
So.
G
E
G
J
E
J
Know
what
I've
read
about
and
I'm,
not
a
technical
expert
on
any
of
these
things,
but
certainly
the
use
of
sensors,
the
use
of
the
use
of
sort
of
smarter
meters
to
to
judge
whether
spaces
around
them
are
empty
or
full.
There's
a
lot
of
different
ways
of
doing
it:
sort
of
overhead
cameras
all
the
rest
of
it
I.
E
J
Think
that
the
problem,
one
of
the
problems
that
the
municipal
parking
management
strategy
is
trying
to
solve,
is
that
you
are
going
to
have
too
much
money
coming
in
for
the
cap
that
you
have
and
you're
looking
for
opportunities
to
invest
and
parking
management
is
the
ideal
place
under
the
Municipal
Act
for
you
to
invest
that.
So
my
ask
would
be
that
you
invest
that
money
in
those
technologies.
My
businesses
are
not
going
to
be
happy
about
pay
parking
coming,
many
of
them
so
asking
them
to
invest
in
the
technology
that
will
bring
paid
parking.
G
G
The
modified
municipal
delivery,
a
city
program
that
will
deliver
parking
services
under
an
on
for
a
non-for-profit,
self-sustaining
model
and
direct
surplus
revenue
to
funds,
transportation
related
activities
in
alignment
with
the
NPMs
and
the
parking
reserve
fund.
Whereas
parking
revenue
is
not
used
to
benefit
the
whole
city
or
councils
priorities
where,
as
I
drew,
Ottawa
I've
demonstrated
the
value
in
returns
for
a
dividend
to
the
city
work
City
Council
can
define
where
its
best
allocated.
G
Therefore,
be
it
resolved
that
the
Transportation
Committee
recommend
in
a
dish
an
additional
option
or
option
number
three,
as
per
the
report,
whereby
a
for
profit
is
used
to
collect
all
parking
revenue
in
a
similar
delivery
model
system
as
hydro
Ottawa,
also
known
as
option
3
to
be
reviewed
and
developed
and
further
be
it
resolved.
That
revenue
collected
can
be
reverted
back
to
the
city
in
form
of
a
dividend
to
be
allocated
to
general
revenue
or
council
set
priorities.
G
A
A
K
K
My
name
is
Kathleen
fortune
and
I'm,
a
member
of
the
healthy
transportation
coalition
and
Ottawa
acorn
and
I'm
here
today,
because
I
believe
that
paid
parking
revenue
would
be
best
be
spent
on
improving
the
snow.
Clearing
standards
on
sidewalks
use
this
revenue
to
bring
winter
sidewalk
maintenance
to
a
1
a
standard.
This
is
a
great
opportunity
for
the
city
to
make
getting
around
more
accessible.
The
winter
sidewalk
conditions
have
a
direct
impact
on
me,
because
I
am
disabled
and
I
have
a
condition
that
makes
it
difficult
for
me
to
go
out
during
bad
weather.
K
K
It
makes
me
feel
isolated
and,
like
a
second-class
citizen,
one
winner
I
got
stuck
in
a
nice
rut
in
the
center
of
my
street,
because
there
was
so
much
ice.
I
got
stuck
between
a
flat
surface
of
the
pavement
that
had
no
ice
and
I
had
to
get
a
neighbor
to
come
out
and
assist
me
I
had
to
get
out
of
my
chair
to
reposition
it.
If
no
one
comes
along
for
help
you're
waiting
for
who
knows
how
long
and
are
at
the
mercy
of
others,
it
feels
like
I'm
being
controlled
by
the
city.
K
Who
tells
me
what
I
can
and
cannot
do.
People
in
cars
have
a
lot
more
freedom.
The
rest
of
us
have
to
plan
our
outings
the
day
before
in
the
past.
To
try
and
address
this
situation.
I
have
tried
calling
the
city
hotline
for
snow
removal
asking
them.
When
is
my
street
going
to
be
cleared?
I
couldn't
get
a
direct
answer,
because
there
is
a
standard
procedure
for
when
things
get
cleared,
but
this
procedure
clearly
doesn't
prioritize
sidewalks.
K
They
said
it
could
take
anywhere
from
three
to
four
days,
and
you
just
can't
wait
that
long.
It
can
be
depressing
and
make
you
feel
defeated
if
you
don't
get
out
for
three
or
four
days.
How
do
you
feel
we
have
to
rely
on
neighbors
and
nobody
wants
to
be
a
burden
or
rely
on
anyone
else.
I
have
a
lot
of
friends
who
have
disabilities
as
well,
who
are
also
affected
by
poor.
It's
not
nice,
clearing
off
sidewalks,
the
city
is
overlooking
all
of
our
needs.
K
When
my
friends
who
use
electric
wheelchairs
try
to
navigate
their
way
down
sidewalks,
they
slide
all
over
the
place
and
risk
hitting
or
being
hit
by
other
vehicles
on
the
road
people
go
on
the
road
because
they
can't
use
the
sidewalks
or
don't
know
where
the
sidewalk
even
is
that's
part
of
the
problem.
It's
gotten
to
the
point
where
people
can't
even
leave
their
house
because
of
the
conditions
of
the
sidewalks.
The
city
needs
to
prioritize,
making
sidewalks
safe
and
accessible
for
everyone.
K
Last
year
the
winter
was
just
terrible
and
the
city
did
nothing
to
clear
the
sidewalks.
If
we
don't
address
the
snow
and
ice
clearing
issue
now,
instead
of
over
the
next
couple
of
years,
we
risk
increased
injuries,
people
will
be
incapacitated,
there
will
be
continued
isolation
and
a
and
increased
costs
on
many
levels.
It
angers
me
to
know
this
continues
to
be
overlooked
by
the
city
they're
telling
us
we're
not
important,
and
our
access
to
transportation
comes
second
to
people
in
cars.
K
A
E
Thank
you
for
bringing
your
concerns
forward.
It
may
not
fall
within
the
municipal
parking
management
strategy,
but
Road
Services
is
currently
going
through
a
service
delivery
review
for
this
upcoming
winter
and
we
will
be
coming
back
to
committee
in
November
and
sidewalk.
Maintenance
is
one
of
the
main
topics
that
we
are
reviewing
through
this
service
delivery
review
we're
also
going
through
a
maintenance
quality
standard
refresh
starting
in
2020,
which
again
is
going
to
bring
this
to
the
forefront.
E
A
L
Good
morning,
chair
play
and
members
of
the
Transportation
Committee
I
just
wanted
to
start
by
indicating
that
I
live
in
Kannada
south
I'm
on
the
board
of
the
healthy
transportation
coalition,
but
I'm
speaking
today
as
an
individual
resident
of
Ottawa.
We
support
the
proposal
to
increase
parking
rates,
but
we
would
really
like
the
city
to
increase
them
much
more
quickly
in
to
a
greater
extent
to
treat
to
achieve
greater
policy
consistency.
L
The
city
should
commit
to
increase
parking
rates
by
a
minimum
of
2.5
percent
every
year,
as
is
the
plan
for
transit
fares,
it's
important
to
recognize
that
on
street
metered
1
&
2,
our
parking
rates
have
been
frozen
since
2008
Scott
mentioned
this
in
his
presentation.
The
staff
presentation
today
over
that
same
period
of
time,
80
percent,
is
the
rate
at
which
transit
fares
have
increased.
These
facts
contradict
the
city's
stated
policy
objectives
which
include
wanting
to
encourage
people
to
ride
transit
more
often
and
drive
private
automobiles
less
often.
L
We
also
want
to
voice
support
for
the
motion
that
was
presented
today
to
invest
in
safe
roads
that
don't
have
design
failings
in
them
that
lead
to
people
being
killed
so
certainly,
vision,
0
is
an
important
goal
and
we,
you
know
just
saw
the
motion
today
for
the
first
time,
but
we're
supportive
of
that
and
I'll
also
have
some
remarks
in
support
of
councillor
Flurry's
motion.
Today,
too,
we
certainly
support
the
use
of
parking
revenue
to
remove
snow
and
ice
off
of
sidewalks
one
more
time
throughout
the
winter.
L
If
I
understand
what
staff
are
saying
correctly,
it
will
mean
that
snow
will
be
removed
from
the
sidewalks
entirely
once
more
often
than
would
otherwise
be
the
case,
and
though
we
do
feel
this
is
inadequate
and
that
more
use
of
parking
revenue
should
be
used
this
winter.
You
know
we're
talking
about
November.
There
could
be
snow
on
the
ground
in
November.
We
need
to
see
better
sidewalks
this
winter.
Obviously
many
people
with
mobility
challenges
and,
frankly
many
able-bodied
people
found
the
sidewalks
to
be
in
a
very
terrible
state.
L
Last
year,
we
know
that
increasing
the
winter
maintenance
standards
would
improve
things,
and
we
know
that
that
takes
money
and
parking
revenue
could
be
used
to
support
that
better
snow
clearing
of
our
sidewalks,
and
we
would
encourage
the
city
to
increase
parking
rates.
To
do
that,
we
support
the
use
of
parking
revenue
to
install
more
bike
parking
throughout
the
city.
We
also
support
the
proposal
to
hire
a
few
more
staff
to
help
coordinate
this
bike
parking.
L
In
2017,
we
worked
with
councilor
egg
light
to
encourage
the
use
of
thirty
thousand
dollars
in
parking
revenue
to
fund
the
installation
of
ring
and
post
bike
parking
at
bus
stops,
and
that
was
funded
as
part
of
budget
2018
decision
making.
We
then
worked
earlier
this
year
with
councillor
Menard
and
he
got
support
from
staff
for
the
idea
that
this
30,000
dollars
should
be
repeated
in
2019
to
secure
more
bike
parking
spots
at
bus
stops.
L
So
this
is
one
of
the
good
things
that
parking
revenue
can
be
used
for
to
encourage
residents
of
Ottawa
to
align
with
the
city's
stated
policy
objectives,
which
is
to
try
to
shift
people
toward
more
sustainable
modes
of
transportation.
The
city
should
explore
paying
for
bike
parking
for
a
bike
sharing
program
within
bike
parking
areas
using
parking
revenue.
Ottawa
doesn't
currently
have
a
functioning
bike
sharing
program.
Sadly,
councillor
Flurry's
motion
would
allow
for
a
dividend
to
be
paid
for
the
city.
L
Perhaps
the
city
would
desire
to
use
some
of
that
dividend
to
toward
re-establishing
a
bike
sharing
program.
I
can't
for
the
life
of
me
understand
the
rationale
for
providing
free
parking
at
municipal
Lots
and
a
non
street
paid
parking
areas
on
many
evenings
and
weekends.
This
is
a
photo
one
Sunday
morning
recently,
there's
a
lot
of
free
parking
in
Ottawa
and
municipal,
Lots
and
I
would
urge
the
city
to
end
free
parking
on
evenings
and
weekends.
L
We
know
that
there's
consideration
given
to
the
fact
that,
well,
you
know
this
sort
of
policy
supports
businesses,
but
we
don't
charge
no
charge
transit,
use
on
Sundays
and
evenings.
So
I
don't
know
why
we
do
a
no
charge
approach
to
parking
on
Sundays
and
evenings.
It
seems
contradictory
to
the
city's
stated
policy
objectives.
We'd
also
like
to
support
the
removal
of
the
veto.
Aka
concurrence
requirement,
the
community
associations
and
bie
A's
had
been
receiving
in
Wellington,
West
and
Hintonburg.
L
We
want
these
areas
to
start
charging
parking
before
the
end
of
June
2020
at
the
very
latest.
The
parking
should
also
be
charged
in
old,
Ottawa
South,
where
it
is
not
currently
being
charged
in
some
areas.
The
city
should
also
consider
charging
a
dollar
a
day
for
people
to
park
at
Park,
&
Ride
facilities
to
help
cover
the
cost
of
ongoing
repairs
of
those
facilities
to
help
cover
the
clearing
of
snow
of
those
Park
and
Ride
facilities.
L
Perhaps
if
the
city
were
spending
less
of
that
money
in
collecting
0
user
fees
in
that
area
and
move
to
ward
away
where
they
were
collecting
at
least
a
dollar
a
day
from
people
parking
there,
the
sidewalks
could
be
cleared
of
snow
better
and
very.
Finally,
my
last
suggestion
is
that
we'd
like
to
see
the
city
strongly
consider
creating
an
arm's
length
agency
similar
to
hydro
Ottawa,
where
a
dividend
could
be
paid
and
the
city
could
use
those
funds
in
support
of
sustainable
modes
of
transportation.
Thank
you.
Thank.
D
L
Certainly,
we
know
there
is
a
lot
of
free
parking
to
be
had
in
suburban
areas
of
Ottawa
and
some
very
urban
areas
of
Ottawa
throughout
the
course
of
the
week.
I
know
in
the
mobility
question
that
was
asked
related
to
the
Official
Plan.
There
was
a
question
put
to
people
filling
out
a
survey,
whether
they'd
be
supportive
of
a
small
fee
being
applied
to
privately
run
parking
lots.
So
you
know
I
live
close
to
the
canal,
centrum
there's
hundreds,
if
not
thousands,
of
free
parking
spots
there.
L
D
L
We'd
love
to
see
the
the
parking
fees
increased
in
the
private
Lots
as
well.
So
if
there's
anything
that
could
be
done
within
the
municipal
tax
structure,
for
example,
property
taxes,
for
example,
could
be
increased
on.
You
know
privately
run
parking,
lots,
I,
don't
know
the
Municipal
Act
inside
and
out
so
I,
don't
know
what
the
requirements
are
related
to
that,
but
certainly
we
think
parking
rates
should
be
increased
to
encourage
people
to
ride
transit.
More
often,
thank.
E
L
I'm,
suggesting
is
that
we
recognize
that
constructing
those
Park
and
Ride
Lots,
which
I
personally
had
taken
advantage
of
many
times,
cost
a
lot
of
money.
We
know
in
Kanata
north,
for
example,
Ottawa
Citizen
published
an
article
at
one
point
that
indicated
that
each
parking
spot
being
constructed
cost
tens
of
thousands
of
dollars
because
of
the
cost
of
the
land
and
then
the
work
that
had
to
be
done
to
build
the
parking
lot.
So
there's
also
cost
related
to
the
removal
of
snow
from
Park
&
Ride
facilities
a
dollar
a
day
to
park.
L
There
would
be
probably
the
least
expensive
parking
in
the
entire
city
in
terms
of
somewhere
where
parking
is
charged.
So
just
in
terms
of
collecting
a
very,
very
small
user
fee
to
help
offset
some
of
the
costs
that
the
city's
incurring
I
don't
think
it
would
be
unreasonable.
I
know
there
needs
to
be
a
balance
between
wanting
to
encourage
people
to
park
and
then
ride,
transit,
I,
don't
think
a
dollar
would
deter
many
people.
You
know
a
dollar
a
day.
It's
it's
it's
very
minimal,
but.
E
I
thought
all
along:
we
want
people
to
par,
so
there'll
be
less
people
on
on
our
road,
and
the
repairer
road
will
cost
lot
more
than
have
them
parked
there.
For
for
the
duration
and
you'd,
have
those
number
of
thousands
of
car
of
your
road
so
I
got
environmentally
and
it's
a
cleaner
air?
If
you
don't
have
as
many
cars
on
the
road
but
suggest
to
charge
a
dollar
and
what
about?
If
the
charge
and
dollar
deterring
people
from
parking
an
apartment
right
and
they
start
driving
their
car?
L
M
Was
in
regards
to
bike
sharing
programs
and
integrating
them
in
with
parking
the
idea
that
if
we
had
more
bike
sharing
people
could
park
further
away,
we're
already
experimenting
on
that
and
this
idea
was
raised
and
so
that
people
had
another
option
so
they're
there.
No,
you
know
they
can
do
that
last
bit
on
a
bike
having
bike
sharing
programs
of
having
it
integrated
into
our
parking
strategy.
E
We
could,
but
the
bike
sharing
program
is
something
that
is
part
of
the
TMP.
We
encouraged
it
and
unfortunately
there
were
no
operators
that
want
to
take
that
on.
So
until
we
get
the
bike
share,
service
provider
come
in
and
that
and
the
pass
had
always
been
focused
around
the
downtown
but
you're
speaking
about
further
away
and
rolling
it
in
with
the
parking.
It's
it's
it's
an
issue,
maybe
that,
like
we.
E
E
H
F
And
just
arising
out
of
mr.
Shaye's
delegation
I
just
want
to
make
sure
that
we're
we're
proceeding
along.
You
know
on
solid
grounds
here
with
respect
to
charging
a
dollar
per
day
for
a
park-and-ride
that
is
legitimately
asserted
as
a
potential
benefit,
but
that
would
add
some
really
significant
revenues
back
into
the
parking
revenues
right.
H
F
So
when
you're
increasing
the
revenues,
those
are
tied
to
the
parking
expenses
we
don't
want
to
go
through,
we
don't
want
to
have
a
surplus
that
keeps
going
over
twenty
million
dollars.
If
that
is
the
the
cap
that
we
end
up,
could
one
of
the
perverse
effects
of
charging
for
Park
and
Ride
parking
be
to
result
in
a
reduction
in
other
parking
in
order
to
keep
a
balance
between
parking
expenses
and
revenues?
A.
H
Currently
we
operate
within
a
surplus
and
we
endeavor
to
allocate
that
surplus
through
the
partners
that
are
fund
into
the
surplus.
The
partners
are
fun
to
think
such
as
parking
right,
so
we
will
achieve
that
balance
and
find
find
places
to
spend
that
and
that's
one
of
the
purposes.
One
of
the
key
purposes
of
the
strategy
here
is
to
identify
those
funding
sources,
but.
A
N
Perfect
Thank
You.
Mr.
chairman,
my
name
is
Alex
Cullen
I'm
here
representing
the
Federation
of
citizens,
associations.
You
are
familiar
with
the
FCA.
We
represent
some
51
community
associations
in
the
city
of
Ottawa,
and
we
are
here
because
we
have
participated.
The
missile
parking
management
strategy,
refresh
exercise
and
we're
here
in
support
of
the
recommendations
that
are
found
in
the
report,
specifically
the
new
procedure
for
determining
new
pain,
display
areas.
N
We
think
using
evidence-based
studies
through
the
local
area,
parking
study
and
having
those
studies
come
to
this
committee,
which
allows
for
public
consultation
is
superior
to
the
former
system
that
allows
for
a
veto
for
community
associations
be
IAS
and
the
ward
councillor.
So
even
our
groups
are
prepared
to
give
up
that
veto.
We
also
support
the
increase
in
the
parking
rates
as
for
notice,
the
first
increase
since
2008.
We
are
particularly
enthused,
mr.
chairman,
that
the
use
of
these
revenues
to
support
sustainable
modes
of
transportation.
N
This
is
one
of
the
objectives
that
you
find
in
the
municipal
parking
municipal
parking
management
strategy
that
it
is
to
support
sustainable
modes
of
transportation
such
as
walking,
cycling
and
transit.
We
are
particularly
enthused,
mr.
chairman,
to
read
in
the
report
that,
while
some
of
the
funds
may
go
to
parking
strategy,
a
bike,
parking
strategy
and
Park
&
Ride
facilities
that
there'll
be
additional
snow
clearance
in
the
paint
display
areas.
As
a
matter
of
fact,
that's
an
argument
to
extend
paint
display
because
we
get
better
snow
clearing
service.
N
So
that
is
something
that
we
think
should
be
pursued
and
we're
glad
to
see
it
in
the
report.
We
also
support
the
increase
in
parking
rates
as
a
means
of
meeting
the
transportation
master
plan
goals.
This
falls
under
the
rubric
of
traffic
demand
management.
Clearly,
if
we
are
to
increase
walking
in
the
city
for
to
increase
cycling
for
increased
transit
use,
you
do
want
to
discourage
automobile
use,
and
that
goes
into
the
decision-making
for
drivers
of
vehicles
is
parking
costs.
So
clearly,
this
is
a
tool.
That's
in
the
traffic
demand
management
kit.
N
We
hope
to
see
with
you
of
all
those
tools
in
the
TMP,
but
we
support
this,
but
this
parking
increase,
because
we
think
that
is
consistent
with
your
TMP
goals.
With
respect
to
the
governance
review,
we
support
the
recommendation
in
the
report
for
a
municipal
delivery
model.
That's
option.
1.
We
find
that
the
that
particular
option
is
more
accessible
to
community
groups
as
opposed
to
option
3
option
3.
There
are
other
complications
well
that
it
is
not
in
a
moment
but
you're
accessible.
N
Here
we
don't
know
how
accessible
a
a
Hydra
auto
model
would
be
to
citizens
right
now.
Hydra
Auto
is
not
very
accessible
to
the
citizens
of
Ottawa
by
the
way,
as
also
an
issue
of
accountability,
now
you're
responsible
parking
on
our
streets
that
we
pay
for.
We
can
talk
to
you
about.
It
is
not
so
much
the
same
thing
with
the
Hydra
auto
model.
N
The
last
thing
that
you
should
consider
is,
you
are
approving
a
model
here
that
has
new
procedure
for
determining
new
pain,
display
areas,
a
new
procedure
in
terminating
the
rate
increase
new
procedure
in
terminal
the
parking
reserve
fund.
If
you
go
to
a
hydro,
Ottawa
model,
you
do
not
have
that
control.
N
So
we
will
for
the
report
that's
been
presented
by
staff.
They
did
the
independent
review.
You
heard
the
consultant
about
the
independent
review.
You
may
want
to
question
the
consultant
on
that,
but
we
do
support
the
municipal
delivery
model.
So,
mr.
chairman,
we're
here
in
support
of
the
report
before
you,
we
look
forward
to
more
opportunities
to
use
those
parking
revenues
to
support
sustainable
modes
of
transportation,
that's
within
the
confines
of
miscible
act,
but
we
think
this
is
a
great
first
step
and
we
look
forward
to
more
steps
along
this
direction.
Thank
You,
mr.
chairman,.
A
D
Very
much
chair,
and
thanks
for
coming
mr.
Cullen
I'm
wondering
just
about
your
comment
about
the
municipal
service
delivery
model
versus
a
hydro,
Ottawa
type
of
model.
You
saw
the
difference
in
the
flexibility
that
would
be
presented
there
for
where
funds
could
be
spent
as
a
result
of
collection
of
of
parking
fares,
and
then
the
Municipal
Act
talks
about
the
alignment
with
the
municipal
parking
management
strategy
or
there
needs
to
be
a
reasonable
connection,
specifically
with
parking.
D
N
Yeah,
quite
frankly,
I
think
staff,
without
line
it
very
clearly
you're
going
to
be
getting
in
part,
a
bike
parking
strategy.
If
you
approve
this
report,
you're
encouraging
bike
use
throughout
the
city
and
may
and
I
might
point
out
to
you
that
the
use
of
these
funds,
even
though
they
are
generated
by
a
geographic
area,
everyone
in
Ottawa
or
80%
of
the
households
in
Ottawa,
have
a
car
and
you
visit
these
areas.
So
these
funds
are
public
funds
being
generated
by
the
the
residents
of
Ottawa
and
reinvesting
those
funds
in
those
modes.
N
Sustainable
modes
of
transportation
just
simply
are
being
able
to
open
your
car
door
and
be
able
to
step
on
a
clean
sidewalk
and
not
go
over
a
snowbank.
Our
members
really
like
that,
but
bike
parking
is
another
element
the
park
and
rides
another
amount.
You
are
extending
LRT
out
to
LRT
to
and
then
eventually
LRT
3.
The
opportunities
for
Park
and
Riga
are
there.
N
So
we
think
that,
even
though
the
dividend
model
which
Heidi
Lord
Ola
has
says,
you
could
use
the
money
everywhere
anywhere,
you
know
what
we're
talking
about
in
terms
of
Stanley
modes
of
transportation.
Would
eat
up
these
funds
anyway?
There's
lots
of
opportunity
and
might
I
remind
you
that
the
dividends
that
come
from
hydro
Ottawa
go
into
general
revenues.
Where
were
the
dividends
from
this
corporation?
Go
okay.
D
N
F
Thanks
and
I
think
your
your
presentation,
mr.
:,
it
was
really
well
put
with
respect
to
the
advantages
and
the
disadvantages
of
having
a
third
party
corporate
entity
and
I
just
want
to
make
sure,
because
if,
if
we
did
create
an
MSc
and
councillor
for
ease
motion
puts
that
firmly
on
the
on
the
table
today
to
go
down
that
path.
We'd
have
flexibility
to
spend
two
or
three
million
dollar
dividend
every
year
on
on
whatever
council's
priorities
are
we
could
purchase
three
electric
buses
every
year
we
could
build
a
new
park
every
year.
F
N
Councillor,
there
are
two
aspects:
one
is
we
like
the
ability
to
approach
the
people
who
are
responsible
for
the
municipal
parking
in
the
city
through
the
post,
a
situation
that
we
have
today
accessibility.
So
that's
a
very
important
issue
when
we're
able
to
raise
parking
concerns
in
our
community,
we've
got
some
place
to
go
to
as
public
and
that
we
can
hold
people
accountable,
can't
do
that
with
a
corporation.
N
Secondly,
you
have
the
taxation
system
to
meet
the
general
needs,
but
when
the
FCA
is
looking
at
the
the
parking
regime
as
part
of
traffic
demand,
management
consistent
was
promoting
to
go
the
TMP.
We
see
that
the
funds
are
there
available
to
promote
the
things
we
hold
dear
vision,
zero.
By
the
way
there
were
safety
motion
us
coming
forward.
We
think
that's
fantastic
and
the
use
of
those
monies
for
that
and
parking
reserved
and
the
parking
revenues
can't
cover
everything,
but
the
fact
that
they
can
deal
with
vision,
zero.
N
N
A
O
I've
been
working
in
the
neighborhoods
of
Wellington
West.
For
just
over
30
years
now,
I
manage
a
number
of
rental
properties
down
there,
I
had
participated
in
almost
every
single
parking
study
and
parking
exercise
that
has
been
done
and
in
our
neighborhood
and
consistently
through.
Every
single
one
I
have
supported
pay
parking,
I
support
the
recommendations
in
this.
In
this
report,
I
have
some
comments
on
some
of
them
and
I
do
not
support
the
allocation
of
the
parking
reserved
fund
as
detailed.
O
My
first,
my
first
concerns
or
questions
actually
are
with
regard
to
the
expenditures
that
are
listed
on
page
four.
Just
a
comment
about
the
the
latter
part
of
the
expenditures,
the
installation,
maintenance
of
bicycle
parking
facilities,
Wellington
West
has
over
300,
post
and
bike
racks.
We
don't
need
more
post
and
wringing
bike
racks.
What
we
need
is
cycling
infrastructure
to
get
to
those
posts
and
winning
bike.
O
Racks
I
just
want
to
make
the
point
that
the
report
calls
for
road
and
sidewalk
maintenance
and
lifecycle
costs
just
to
to
to
make
sure
that
the
members
of
this
committee
understand
that
commercial
property
taxes
are
already
at
two
and
a
half
times
the
residential
tax
rate.
A
large
single-family
house
in
in
a
residential
neighborhood
on
a
5,500
lot,
would
probably
pay
about
eight
nine
thousand
dollars
in
property.
Taxes
that
same
building
on
Wellington
Street
is
paying
in
excess
of
twenty
eight
thousand
dollars
in
property
taxes
every
year.
O
I
just
want
to
make
the
point
that
if
we
are
going
to
put
funds
towards
maintaining
and
repairing
our
commercial
Main
streets,
that's
in
addition
to
the
money
that
we
were
already
paying
in
our
property
taxes,
meaning
we
increase
the
level
of
service
on
our
streets,
and
that
is
critically
important
because,
as
the
population
ages,
we
are
simply
not
going
to
be
able
to
have
the
level
of
maintenance
that
we
experienced
last
winter.
It's
it's
unacceptable
and
it
is
not.
It
is
not
in
the
best
interests
of
us
of
our
citizens.
O
Then
the
next
one
is
the
support
and
mean
it's
an
operation
of
drama
and
Park
&
Ride
facilities,
I
like
to
come
back
to
that
in
a
moment,
and
then
the
last
comment
with
regards
to
the
expenditures
and
other
related
initiatives
to
encourage
the
use
of
sustainable
modes
of
transportation.
I
guess
the
the
problem
I
have
with
this
one
is
that
what
does
encourage
mean
encourage
in
the
sense
that
we're
going
to
build
cycling
infrastructure
that
we're
going
to
build
safe
intersections
for
our
pedestrians?
O
Or
does
it
mean
that
we're
just
going
to
put
ads
and
newspapers,
encouraging
people
to
bicycle
and
then
finally,
which
brings
us
back
to
the
earlier
line,
the
contributions
the
park
and
reserve
fund
right
now?
The
report
suggests
that
the
the
excess
in
in
the
park
and
reserve
be
dedicated
towards
parking
rides
and
then
lifecycle
costs
on
curbside
walk-in
parking
Lane
we're
not
talking
chump
change
here.
O
The
the
park
observe
fund
currently
has
about
twenty
three
point:
nine
or
twenty
four
million
dollars
in
in
the
account
we're
30
90
days
from
the
end
of
the
year,
there's
probably
an
additional
three.
Maybe
three
and
a
half
million
dollars
that
is
going
to
go
on
top
of
that
twenty
four
million
dollars.
So
there's
going
to
be
seven,
maybe
eight
million
dollars
worth
of
parking
reserved
excess
funds
available
for
expenditure
posting
ring
bike.
Rack
would
probably
cost
about
two
hundred
bucks.
O
A
parking
spot
in
a
park
and
ride
would
probably
be
in
excess
of
thirty
five
thousand
dollars
a
spot
OC
Transpo
at
or
the
the
current
park-and-ride
inventory.
Kearney
has
in
excess
of
9,000
free
free
parking
spaces.
I
do
not
believe
that
the
funds
from
pay
parking
should
be
used
to
maintain
and
build
new
free
parking.
O
It
is
completely
contrary
to
what
this
strategy
is
attempting
to
do.
If
we
want
to
change
the
culture
of
our
citizens
to
get
around
our
city
in
other
ways
other
than
in
their
own
little
private
automobiles,
then
we
are
going
to
have
to
we
are
going
to
have
to
eliminate
free
parking
I
do
support
the
earlier
motion
with
regards
to
the
I
forget
what
it
was
called:
road
safety
action.
A
You
thank
you
very
much,
mr.
Kemp,
for
your
presentation.
Are
there
any
questions
to
the
delegation
seeing
none?
Thank
you
very
much
for
coming
out
today.
I
have
no
other
delegations
on
my
list,
so
we
will
go
to
questions
to
staff
and
to
debate.
I
do
have
a
list.
So
if
people
would
like
to
ask
questions,
please
let
me
know
so.
I'm
just
finishing
the
list
from
people
who
have
already
told
me
so
first
is
councillor
flurry.
G
So
I
have
questions
on
the
report
and
then
I'm
glad
to
dig
a
little
deeper
on
the
the
governance
piece
but
Scott.
A
couple
of
questions
relating
to
right
now,
you're
giving
us
a
bottom
and
a
ceiling
relating
to
the
reserve
account
any
exit.
Anything
that
exceeds
that.
What
gives
us
the
authority
under
the
municipal
act
to
spend
it
to
what
appears
to
be
anything
because
that's
what
I'm
trying
to
gain
under
the
current
model.
G
H
G
G
G
So,
as
a
committee
member
I
know
you're
having
those
conversations
because
I
I
hear
from
some
of
the
stakeholders,
I
wonder
what
you
can
put
in
place
so
that
there's
more
you
know,
for
example,
Denis
was
not
on
the
stakeholders
group,
that's
fine,
but
the
folks
that
might
be
interested
in
participating
or
being
aware.
How
can
we
give
some
exposure
what's
presented?
What's
discussed
and
what's
decided
out
of
that?
That
form.
H
Sure
one
of
the
roles
of
each
one
of
the
members
of
the
stakeholder
group
is
to
be
that
conduit
back
to
their
respective
organizations
or
and
so
in
the
case
of
the
BI
representatives.
So
we
trust
that
they're
disseminating
the
information
back,
but
that
is
something
that
we
can
take
away
to
increase
the
transparency
in
terms
of
what's
being
discussed.
Yeah.
G
H
G
G
Given
you
a
cap
of
I,
guess
today,
with
the
increase
it's
around
$4
or
350,
or
something
when
do
you
plan
to
implement
the
dynamic
because
I
think
that's
the
issue,
it
is
we're
giving
you
the
flexibility
to
review
based
on
usage
and
so
on,
but
I'm
not
seeing
a
dynamic
a
day-to-day.
You
know
we're
heading
into
Canada.
Today
it's
gonna
be
busy.
There's
a
high
user
ship.
We
should
charge
a
lot
of
money
when
there's
low,
ridership
and
I
think
or
streets
like
Westboro,
who
are
maybe
favorable
to
paid
parking
but
concerned.
G
H
There
are
models
out
there
where
rates
change
by
time
of
day
and
by
block,
and
that
is
very
hard
to
put
that
information
with
a
person
in
their
vehicle
so
that
they're
making
decisions
and
in
going
to
something
that's
zone
based
with
a
consistent
rate
and
broader
increments,
and
we
may
see
elsewhere.
I
think
we
give
ourselves
more
a
greater
ability
to
communicate
that
so
that
we
can
have
them
make
informed
decisions,
distribute
them
at
the
demands
strategically
and
achieve
better
achieve
the
our
strategy
goals.
I.
G
Have
an
issue
with
it
I
think
it's
the
same
idea
that
you
know
the
api's
are
out
there
for
gas
stations
to
put
their
prices,
and
some
smart
app
developer
has
created
an
app
where
you
can.
You
know
where
your
gas
prices
are
so
I
would
say:
let's
release
the
the
pan
display
data
and,
let's
let
the
app
developers
have
a
fun
at
it
or
we,
as
committee
set
the
top
bar.
G
H
That
this
is
certainly
a
first
step
and
I
think
there's
a
number
of
things
that
have
to
happen,
and
we've
identified
our
technology
roadmap
to
fully
consider
what's
coming
and
what
our
options
are
in
terms
of
enabling
again
residents
visitors
to
make
those
informed
decisions.
I
think
there's
a
few
things
that
likely
need
to
happen
in
in
vehicle
information
that
type
of
thing,
because
people
aren't
making
those
decisions
on
where
to
park
which
block
to
park
on
when
they're,
leaving
their
house
or
making
those
decisions
when
they're
arriving
at
that
location.
H
G
Okay
and
then
my
final
question
before
I
guess,
I
get
back
on
the
list,
for
my
governance.
Piece
is
relating
to
so
right
now
my
personal
feeling
is,
or
my
community's
feeling
is,
that
we
are
creating
imbalances
on
Main
streets.
What
we're
doing
is
we're
creating
a
retail
environment
where
you
don't
want
paid
parking.
It
gives
you
the
edge,
no
matter
where
that
is
today.
It's
West
Broad
tomorrow,
I'll
be
another
Street.
G
It
I
think
it
we
need
to
get
there,
but
I
don't
want
to
just
fix
West
burrow
I
want
it
to
be
systemic,
that
as
popularity
grows
in
our
Main
streets,
that
you're
able
to
look
at
usership
and
and
and
start
implementing
it
by
the
way
I'd
love
to
go
further
and
look
at
uOttawa
zones
that
are
on
residential
streets
near
you
Ottawa.
So
I
want
to
be
clear
that
I'm
I'm
even
further
than
than
where
we
need
to
go.
H
So
certainly,
the
strategy
that
we
are
proposing
accounts
for
that
and
accounts
for
it
further
develops
the
process
which
was
in
the
existing
strategy
to
identify
areas
where
there
are
parking,
related
issues,
parking
management,
related
issues,
and
we
will
continue
to
lean
on
our
study
process,
which
involves
consultation
and
data
collection,
to
assess
those
areas
and
make
determinations
on
whether
or
not
paid
parking
is
a
tool
that
is
warranted
because
there's
a
number
of
things
we
look
at
but
paid
parking
is
one
of
those.
So
chair,
I
have
to
get
enough
time.
D
D
It's
just
it's
very
minor,
but
I'll
get
there
when
I
get
there.
So
thank
you
for
all
the
work.
You've
done.
There's
a
lot
of
good
in
here
and
you've
met
with
a
lot
of
us
and
and
provided
a
lot
of
overview.
I.
Think
there's,
there's
there's
good
things
here.
The
story
will
likely
be
well.
Parking
rates
are
going
up,
but
I
that
shouldn't
be
the
story,
in
my
view,
I
think
that's
obviously
it's
a
report
on
that.
D
But
the
story
for
me
is
how
much
investment
is
going
to
be
done
on
things
like
a
bike,
parking
strategy
and
snow
clearing.
That's
going
to
come
along
with
this
and
the
net
positives
for
our
city
in
terms
of
a
better
transportation,
modal
share
and
and
the
expansion
of
what
I
see
is
some
flexibility
around
where
where
we
can
actually
invest
some
of
these
funds,
so
I
just
appreciate
the
work
you've
done
and
and
where
we
are
right
now.
D
That's
the
way
the
budget
cycles
work
so
can
I
actually
ask
you
to
come
back
sooner
than
than
what
you're
potentially
preparing
to
do
and
make
sure
that
we
actually
get
a
good
discussion
going
around
that
it's
been
I,
guess,
11
years,
since
that
discussion
happened
last
time
around
and
and
I
understand
that
the
chief
reason
why
we
didn't
implement
anything
on
Sundays,
for
example,
or
look
at
it
is-
is
around
you
know
a
lobby
essentially,
and
so
that's
fine.
It's
just
I
think
we
can
I.
D
Think
we
can
talk
about
it
again
and
now
is
the
time
to
do
it.
So
can
I
just
give
you
that
that
suggestion
in
terms
of
the
objectives
in
the
MPM
s
report,
you've
got
objective,
one
provide
an
appropriate
and
optimized
supply
of
general
public
cup
of
parking.
Can
you
just
give
me
more
on
what
do
you
mean
by
optimized
supply
to
meet
demand
to
to
meet
service
levels?
What
what
is
optimize
supply
mean
to
you.
H
Share
the
it
is
important
for
to
have
aisle
views
on
Street
first
and
there's
some
examples
of
appertained
off
street
as
well,
but
for
on
street
parking
to
be,
we
don't
want
it
to
be
too
heavily
utilized,
so
we
get
into
a
where
there's
not
enough
available
parking,
and
then
there
can
be
a
point
at
which
it's
it's
not
utilized
and
off.
So
the
businesses
are
being
underserved.
H
D
I'll
have
some
more
just
questions
around
that
later
on
and
maybe
in
a
second
round
of
questioning
objective
number
two
talks
about
prioritizing
short-term
parking
that
is
responsively
priced
to
support
businesses,
institutions
and
tourism
I'd
like
to
amend
this
objective
and
to
add
local
communities
in
there.
So
it
would
be
that
the
prioritized
short-term
parking
that
is
responsively
priced
to
support
local
communities,
businesses,
institutions
and
tourism.
D
It's
just
two
words
chair
I
can
write
it
out
if
you
want,
but
it's
just
the
two
words
going
in
to
a
two
objective
number
two
now
I'll
definitely
give
them
give
them
some
more
context.
It
speaks
to
our.
It
speaks
to
several
things.
Denis's
presentation,
I
think
is,
is
clear
around
the
need
for
local
communities
to
be
involved
in
this
strategy.
It
does
affect
our
local
communities.
What
parking
exists
on
their
Street
nearby
oftentimes?
D
It's
them
parking
there
and
going
to
local
businesses,
whether
you
know
if
it's
paid
or
not
they're
the
ones
that
that
are
engaging
in
it
and
it
also
speaks
to
our
stakeholder
group.
We've
got.
We've
got
community
associations
on
our
stakeholder
group.
We
have
three
three
different
community
representatives
there
and
four
different
BIA
s,
and
so
I
just
want
to
make
sure
we're
not
missing
an
entire
group
of
folks
here.
This
is
not
just
about
about
businesses.
This
is
also
about
our
local
communities
and
and
and
where
people
Park.
D
So
that's
a
hoping
it's
a
it's
a
friendly
amendment
around
the
table,
but
I
just
want
to
put
that
forward
as
well
as
part
of
the
other
motions
that
are
going
forward.
Karen.
If
you
want
to
consider
that
at
the
end
of
all
this,
or
with,
like
with
your
emotion
in
council
Flurry's
motion,
okay,
I'll
write
it
out,
it's
just
two
words,
but
I'll
read
it
out.
D
I'm
gonna
continue
on
restore
how
much
time
I
have
left
here.
The
the
on
demand
work
that
you're
doing
so.
Instead
of
having
sort
of
the
dynamic
pricing
that
other
cities,
other
cities
have
implemented,
you're
saying
that
we're
gonna
cut
we're
going
to
review
these
areas
on
a
regular
basis
and
there
could
be
increments
of
was
it
fifty
cents
was
that
would
50
cent
increments,
that
you
would
design
to
say
hey
in
this
area
of
Bank
Street.
There's
high
demand
here
on
at
this
time.
So
we
need
to
increase
this
by
by
fifty
cents.
D
H
That
maximum
rate,
in
this
case,
the
maximum
wants
free
rate,
is
something
that's
defined
within
the
budget
every
year
as
we
go
through
this
process
and
initiate
this
process
of
a
and
implement
this
demand
based
model
when,
if
the
situation
occurs,
that
we
were
to
increase
rates
to
four
dollars
in
an
area,
we
would
respond
accordingly
and
move
the
maximum
rate.
So
we
have
that
ability
to
that
continuing
flexibility
to
move
the
rates
up.
Further.
D
An
hour
okay,
so
if,
but
if
demand
warrants
it,
you're
saying
they
could
in
fact
go
there
is
that
sort
of
what
I'm
getting
at
in
the
but
during
the
budget
time:
okay,
correct
because
I
mean
I
I
had
last
committee
meeting
during
a
budget
talked
about
looking
at
a
25
cent
increase
instead
of
a
50
cent
increase,
and
there
was
concern
that
about
doing
something
in
the
budget
on
that.
But
now
we
are
going
to
be
able
to
look
at
rates
during
the
budget
time.
Is
that
clear?
Okay.
H
Just
to
clarify
the
the
maximum
rate
is
set
during
the
budget
time,
so
if
I
may
a
hypothetical
and
now
we
will
raise
the
rate
in
an
area
next
year
and
B
and
if
you
have
$4
so
we
in
the
as
part
of
the
2021
budget
would
suggest
to
raise
the
maximum
threshold
to
450.
So
we
have
that
flexibility
in
2021
to
to
raise
it
further.
If
the
demand
supports
it,.
D
Okay,
thank
you
very
much.
I
have
this
is
an
important
question
for
me
around
around
the
reserve
fund
and
I
guess
the
the
expanding
definition
of
what
is
okay
under
the
municipal
act
or
what
we
view
is
legally
okay
versus
versus
not
right,
it
was.
It
was
very
thin
before
and
now
we've
expanded
it,
which,
I
think
is
a
good
thing
and
I
also
want
to
speak
to
to
councilor
blaze
motion,
because
it
does
appear
that
we
have
multiple
ways
to
work
with
this
right.
D
So
in
this
in
councilor
blaze
motion
which
I,
which
I
support
it
is
saying
you
know
we're
going
to
be
investing
in
projects
that
are
currently
underway.
That
would
be
eligible
to
receive
the
funding
under
the
Municipal
Act
and
that
there
can
be
a
return
of
funds,
an
equivalent
amount
to
the
citywide
reserve,
which
would
normally
be
going
to
those
projects.
D
But
it's
going
back
to
the
city
by
reserve,
so
ostensibly
the
same
principle
could
apply
to
multiple
instances
of
projects
that
would
meet
the
the
party
management
strategy,
but
that
may
fall
outside
of
what
is
a
definition
under
the
mess
box
and
that's
the
key
point
for
me
around
councillor.
Flurries
motion
as
well
and
in
my
vote
on
that
motion
will
entirely
rest
on
on
this
answer,
because
I
don't
want
to
go
to
a
third
party
system,
but
the
counselor
is
putting
this
forward
because
we
have
such
little
limited.
D
H
In
proposing
this
new
model
and
the
new
funding
model,
there
was
an
opportunity
that
presented
itself
to
allocate
the
surplus
funds
to
to
current
every
construction
projects
and
those
projects
aligned
with
what
is
in
the
musical
park
management
management
strategy
and
have
that
connection
to
parking
because
of
the
the
fact
that
paid
parking
exists.
Sir,
if
this,
if
a
similar
instance
were
to
occur
again
and
we
would
be
able
to
allocate
funds.
Similarly,
okay.
D
That
that's
very,
very
helpful
for
me
to
know
and
I
think
reinforces
my
support,
then,
for
the
option
you
put
forward
of
option,
one
I
hopefully
comes
to
flurry
sees
that
as
well.
Just
because
that's
all
I'll
be
voting
on
that
motion
based
on
based
on
what
they've
just
said.
So
I
have
other
you
wanted
to
leave
it
there.
Chair
do
I
have
time
or
okay
yeah
I
can
come.
M
M
How
is
it
applied
to
this
to
this
whole
process,
because
we're
supposed
to
be
reducing
emissions
by
80%
100%,
you
know
in
30
years
or
so,
and
you
know
part
of
that
is-
is
getting
people
out
of
their
cars.
Are
we
using
a
strategy
in
that
respect?
I
just
want
to
know
that
that's
been
taken
into
consideration,
sure.
H
I
believe
it's
it's
reflected
in
the
objectives
and
then
there's
a
balance
to
be
struck
between
promoting
and
supporting
sustainable
modes
of
transportation,
but
also
ensuring
Mecca
my
economic
viability
and
supporting
the
businesses
and
the
tourism
industries
that
exist
so
I
mean
there
are
a
number
of
things
that
we
do.
We
when
we
look
at
our
long
term
rates,
we
are
providing
parking
through
definitely
17
facilities
in
the
city
and
our
objective.
H
There
is
to
make
those
about
short-term
parking
and
not
and
dissuade
the
long
term
parking
and
that
those
facilities
anticipate
the
the
commuter
parking
that's
associated
with
that.
So
there
are
some
things
we
do,
but
it's
a
at
the
end
of
the
day
about
striking
that
balance
between
sustainable
modes
and
and
viable
business
and
economic
development.
Thank.
M
You
one
of
the
things
that's
coming
up
is
bike.
Parking
and
I
mean
there's
two
ways
to
look
at
it.
There's
the
actual
parking
like
the
Rings
to
put
your
bike
in
there's,
also
the
the
parking
cycles,
and
we
we
have
one
that's
going
to
be
a
pilot
project
in
my
area
and
I
expect
that
they're
going
to
be
very
popular.
The
NCC
is
also
doing
them,
and
can
that
be
supported
in
this.
M
Okay,
that
that's
very
encouraging
and
again
I
appreciate
the
suggestion
about
the
bike
sharing,
because
I
think
it
can
fit
in
as
well
to
encourage
people
to
not
be
going
all
the
way
downtown.
Perhaps
in
picking
up
a
sharing
bike,
you
know.
So
it's
so
that's
helpful
and
we
ever
looked
at
a
strategy
in
terms
of
you
know
in
terms
of
parking.
That
is,
you
know
where
there's
an
alternative
ie
it's
on
the
LRT
route,
and
you
know,
therefore
the
person
could
have
taken
the
LRT.
M
A
M
Thank
you.
I.
Do
think
that
we
have
to
look
at
parking
as
a
as
an
issue.
It's
it's
always
one
of
the
things
that
comes
up
even
in
a
in
a
word
like
mine,
where
I
do
not
have
any
pay
and
display
parking,
but
people
you
know,
obviously
use
it.
A
lot
so
and
I
appreciate
the
comments
that
have
been
brought
forward.
Just
a
clarification
on
the
snow
clearing
just
so
people
know.
This
is
only
for
areas
around
park.
M
M
I
just
want
to
make
sure
that
people
know
that
so
no
way
I
mean
I'm,
hoping
we're
going
to.
You
know
over
time
encourage
people
to
look
at
other
modes
of
transportation
for
sure.
So
this
is
a
good
first
step.
I
I
know
that
there's
the
restriction
of
the
Municipal
Act
I,
don't
know
what
would
happen
if
we,
actually,
you
know
we're
caught
out
or
don't
told
we
were,
you
know
violating
the
Municipal
Act.
What's
the
worst
thing
that
could
happen.
E
We've
provided
advice
to
staff
with
regards
to
the
Municipal
Act
requirements
and
generally
the
parking
management
strategy
complies
with
the
Municipal
Act.
The
costs
are
related
to
the
services
that
are
provided
through
that
strategy
and
if
there's
a
deviation
beyond
that,
then
it
would
be
considered
indirect
taxes.
So
that
would
be
where
a
challenge
would
occur
and
that's
why
the
funds
are
kept
in
a
separate
reserve
is
so
that
they're
not
commingled
with
general
revenues
and
that
they
can
be
used
for
the
the
parking
spread,
the
strategy
purposes
and
those
objectives.
But.
M
E
F
F
H
So,
with
a
maximum
on
Street
rate
being
three
dollars
an
hour
right
now,
we
do
have
some
areas
where
we
see
high
utilization.
In
terms
of
what
that
means,
we
will
conduct
this
thorough
process
to
assess
all
zones
across
the
city
starting
next
year
and
and
identify
where,
if
anywhere,
the
rates
need
to
be
raised
to
account
for
that
to
bring
it
with
the
objective
to
bring
it
into
that
Goldilocks
zone,
the
sweet
spot,
I'm.
F
Wondering
at
that
$4
number
that
doesn't
give
you
a
ton
of
wriggle
room
and
I
wonder
what
kind
of
analysis
went
into
ascertaining
that
four
dollars
is
the
right
number
so
that,
if
you
needed
to
go
to
the
maximum
in
order
to
manage
demand
down
to
that,
that
sweet
85%
spot
that
that's
going
to
be
the
right
number,
as
opposed
to
asking
for
450
or
five
dollars?
Is
that
just
a
political
consideration?
F
H
F
I
believe
the
report
would
say
that
you
would
consider
removing
paid
parking
for
an
area
if
utilization
fell
to
50
percent
or
the
the
amount
charged
is
one
dollar.
So,
by
the
time
we
get
to,
you
know
what
we're
only
charging
a
buck
an
hour.
It's
still
only
fifty
percent
used
that's
the
threshold
at
which
you
would
contemplate
removing
paid
parking.
F
F
I
noticed
the
word
consideration
and
the
report
is
as
as
doing
that.
That's
a
really
big
difference
from
you
know.
What
are
our
pay
parking
study
says.
You
know
we're
over
the
eighty-five
percent
utilization,
we're
gonna
implement
paid
parking,
but
if
that
was
a
mistake
and
and
parking
started
to
fall,
and
even
you
know
a
couple
bucks
an
hour
brought
us
down
to
sixty
percent.
Do
you
need
more
flexibility
to
remove
parking
if
it
turns
out
to
have
been
implemented
in
light
of
factors
we
hadn't
considered.
F
We've
removed
paid
parking
for
Marion
pass,
and
this
is
this
is
an
important
part
of
what
I'm
telling
community
stakeholders
is.
You
know
what
I
mean.
Our
goal
is
not
to
get
revenue.
Our
goal
is
to
manage
parking
so
that
there
is
parking
available
for
local
businesses
which
in
Wellington
Weston
Westborough.
We
hear
about
all
the
time.
F
H
Absolutely
so
there
is
an
area
and
I
mean
Danny.
We
did
a
local
area
parking
studies
with
paid
parking
existed
from
the
river,
not
quite
as
far
as
selling
wrong,
but
Granville
I.
Think
roughly,
and
the
study
was
done
in
roughly
2013,
and
one
of
the
recommendations
of
that
study
was
to
reduce
the
rate
to
two
dollars
an
hour
and
go
back
and
look
at
it
again
and
and
as
part
of
the
process
to
go
back
and
going
back
and
reassessing
it.
H
Mae
was
determined
that
the
area
of
any
west
of
the
Vani
Parkway
so
in
between
the
river
and
Banyan
Parkway
had
responded,
and
we
then
there
was
a
appropriate
level
of
demand,
but
east
of
the
van
manually
Pena
Parkway.
There
had
not
been
any
appreciable
change
in
demand,
so
the
decision
was
made
at
that
point
in
time
to
remove
the
paid
parking
in
that
area.
So
that
was
before
what
we're
proposing
now.
So
it
would
be
a
little
more
regimented.
Now
it
was
the
judgment
call
at
the
time,
based
on
the
the
conditions.
H
F
F
In
the
report,
a
new
section
on
environmental
sustainability,
one
of
the
key
business
KPIs
K
key
business
indicators
that
you're
proposing
to
report
on
every
year
is
the
number
of
bike
spots
but
I
think
you've
specifically
said
you're,
not
gonna
report
on
utilization
of
those
bike
spots.
Is
there
a
reason
why
not
I
mean
it
would
be
very,
very
handy
to
have
that
data
to
understand
some
of
the
modal
shifts
we're
trying
to
accomplish
I.
H
F
F
H
We
have
not
engaged
in
a
thorough,
thorough
analysis
of
that.
We
have
identified,
however,
that
I
mean
there
would
be
currently
within
parking
services.
We
leverage
shared
services,
urban
finance,
legal
services
within
the
city,
so
there
are,
there
would
be
a
requirement
for
additional
resources
within
an
arm's
length,
entity
board
members
leased
space.
There
are
costs
in
terms
of
what
that
exact
number
is.
We
don't
have
that.
Okay,.
F
F
One
piece
and
I
think
this
is
a
question
for
maybe
legal
that
I
am
really
pleased
to
see
that
you
are
proposing
to
put
together
a
technology
roadmap
who's
going
to
put
that
roadmap
together,
I
believe
you're
working
with
our
IT
staff
and
with
what
I
assume
will
be
a
new
CIO
hired
some
time
reasonably
soon.
The.
H
Focus
of
that
will
be
a
little
on
a
scan
of
the
industry,
and
specifically
the
parking
industry
and
in
terms
of
being
overlap
of
what's
what's
happening
and
and
types
of
technologies
that
are
that
are
coming
at
us
will
either
be
courting
that
according
to
at
it
internally
or
we
will
be
cordoning
them
internally.
Whether
we
bring
in
somebody
externally
to
provide
an
additional
perspective
is
something
that
will
will
determine
following
us.
Okay,.
F
It
security
is
something
that
the
city
is
thinking
really
hard
about
right
now.
I
just
want
to
make
sure
that
as
new
solutions
get
rolled
out
across
that
we're
centralizing
some
of
those
decisions
with
someone
who
has
that
bigger
look
at
security
considerations
within
the
city
and
then
does
this
report
for
legal.
It's
not
part
of
the
resolution
that
we're
they're
going
to
deliver
a
technology
roadmap
you're
reading
of
this
report.
Does
it
require
them
to
do
that?
K
F
F
O
E
You
very
much
mr.
chair,
my
question
is
very
simple
and
I
did
bring
this
up
during
the
briefings,
the
words
Park
and
Ride,
or
will
trigger
word
for
a
lot
of
people
and
many
moons
ago,
before
I,
even
gotten
council
decisions
were
made
that
you
know
we're
going
to
not
build
new
parking
structures
inside
the
Greenbelt,
because
it
encourages
people
from
Orleans
to
drive
into
my
district
and
park.
There
I
just
want
to
confirm
how
do
we
determine
if
any
of
this
money
is
going
to
park
and
rides?
Would
that
be
still
true?
E
To
the
as
part
of
our
TMP,
we
are
taking
a
review
of
the
park-and-ride
strategy
and
the
essence
of
a
park-and-ride
strategy
is
to
capture
the
commuters
before
they
start
heading
into
the
the
downtown
area
or
into
inside
the
Greenbelt,
because
once
they
are
there,
they
may
continue
driving
through.
So
so.
The
the
strategy
that
we
have
has
been
refreshed
and
updated
as
part
of
the
overall
transportation
network
plan
as
part
of
the
TMP
great.
E
So
just
just
to
clarify
my
state
wouldn't
be
probably
quite
correct
that
there
would
not
be
a
new
parking
right,
Tunney's
Blair
inside
the
Greenbelt
that
want
to
be
on
that
on
the
horizon,
for
the
LRT
stations,
I
think
the
land
is
very
valuable
to
to
be
used
for
other
purposes
such
as
intensification,
because
we
want
to
support
the
ridership
along
the
LRT.
So
it's
unlikely
that
we
would
be
looking
for
parking
around
these
major
hubs.
G
Many
members
of
council
recognize
that
this
is
one
of
the
only
groups
that
generates
money
at
the
city.
We
offer
a
lot
of
services,
and
this
is
one
of
the
groups
that
generates
dollars.
I
I,
like
the
analysis,
I,
think
generally
we're
heading
in
the
right
direction.
I
think
we
have
legal
constraints
that
we
can
try
to
dodge
as
much
as
we
want,
but
we're
caught
by
the
Municipal
Act
that
we
cannot
any
money
we
collect.
We
have
to
spend
to
that
program,
a
user
fee
environment.
G
We
can't
take
that
money
and
based
on
counsels
priority
we
established
where
that
money
should
go
so,
interestingly
enough,
the
current
model,
that's
proposed
by
staff,
helps
me
I'm,
entirely
paid
zone.
Think
about
so
all
the
money
that
would
generate
I
would
benefit
from
directly
just
to
be
clear,
but
I.
Don't
think
that
that's
the
right
thing,
I
think
that
everyone
that
has
non-paying
display
areas,
because
we're
only
talking
about
them.
G
The
areas
where
we
have
paid
lots
or
pay
in
display
I
think
council
councillors
that
don't
have
pain
display
zones
should
actually
benefit
from
those
revenue
sources
relating
to
improved,
improve
snow
operations,
improved
crosswalks,
improve
so
I
think
you
know,
I
recognize
that
many
would
be
uncomfortable
based
on
the
review
that
was
done
than
the
review
is
fair.
I'm,
not
I'm,
not
dodging
the
review,
but
I
think
this
is
a
political
decision.
G
G
So
you
know
vote
as
you
wish,
but
I
think
the
motion
sets
out
the
context
that
if
you
don't
Payan
display-
and
you
want
council
priorities
to
dominate
where
we're
investing,
then
it's
that
that
is
a
tool
that
we
can
use.
I
also
think
that
we
are
not
progressive
enough
relating
to
the
dynamic
elements
of
paid
zones.
I
think
we
should
really
be
in
paid
lots
and
on
street
parking,
be
a
lot
more
active
to
the
period
of
the
year
and
and
and
be
more
data
focused
and
quick
on
the
data
response
right
now.
G
We're
setting
up
a
models
where
the
research
and
the
analysis
needs
to
be
done,
and,
yes,
it
will
be
adapted,
but
it
were
not
responsive
enough.
So,
by
the
time
the
results
come
in
things
around
us
have
shifted.
Think
of
when
the
analysis
was
done
prior
to
Lansdowne
and
then
Lansdowne
comes
in
and
we
moved
things
around
well.
That
could
continue.
Can
it
continuously
bring
some
some
changes
into
the
system,
so
I
would
I
would
agree
with
I
think
every
speaker
that
we're
heading
in
the
right
direction,
I
just
wish.
G
We've
gone
further,
I'm
happy
that
we're
providing
the
flexibility
to
not
be
caught
for
approvals
on
the
the
pay
zone.
So
that's
certainly
a
great
thing
and
I
would
certainly
recommend
the
committee
to
consider
my
motion.
If
you
want
councils
priority
to
dominate
where
we're
spending
those
revenue
dollars,
if
not
we're,
still
doing
the
right
thing
and
we're
adding
some
flexibility,
but
rest
assured
I'll
be
in
zones
that
are
paid
zones
already,
which
I
happen
to
be
included.
O
Thank
You
mr.
chair,
hey,
I'd,
like
to
encourage
my
colleague,
counselor
flurry
to
look
around
the
room.
I
looked
at
the
back
and
I
see
bylaw
and
they're,
pretty
good
revenue,
generators
themselves
and
building
cold
services.
That's
like
pays
for
itself
what
the
revenue
said
it's
collecting,
so
there
is
on
the
budget
line.
There
is
quite
a
few
revenue
sources
here
at
the
city.
O
I
would
encourage
my
colleague
that
if
he
wanted
support
from
people
like
myself
that
are
outside
representing
residents
outside
the
Greenbelt
that
he
would
have
shared
that
motion
ahead
of
time,
instead
of
sending
it
to
me,
while
I'm
on
my
way
to
the
the
committee,
so
for
that
reason,
I
can't
support
it.
I
haven't
had
a
chance
to
look
it
up.
These
folks
have
come
around
they,
not
what
all
of
us
several
times.
O
They
kept
us
informed
on
what
was
going
on
with
the
consultations
why
they
were
making
their
recommendations
and
I
think
they
did
a
very
good
job
and
I'm
gonna
support
that,
instead
of
making
a
last-minute
change
here
on
the
table.
One
question
for
you
with
this,
as
you
mentioned
earlier,
you
said
that
the
goal
pass
fees
from
the
park
and
rides
go
into
your
pot
of
money.
O
So
does
that
mean
that
in
wards
where
there
are
parking
right
that
we
can
access
those
funds
to
buy
like
bike
racks,
for
example,
to
encourage
more
people
to
bike
to
the
park
and
ride
in
cases
of
overcrowding
at
the
park
rides
and
the
second
part
of
that
is
does?
Would
those
funds
contribute
towards
a
pathway,
link
that
is
needed
to
the
park
and
ride
for
transit
users?
O
H
Chair
the
to
the
first
part,
the
bike
parking
and,
as
part
of,
what's
being
proposed,
it's
an
additional
funding
in
bike
parking,
but
also
knowing
the
expanded
scope
where
we're
not
only
limited
to
invest
in
bike
parking
in
paid
areas.
So,
yes,
they
did,
and
this
was
something
that
we're
all
settled
out
through
the
by
parking
strategy
that
getting
to
define
what
gets
installed
and
where
and
when
and
based
on
what
criteria.
H
G
Thank
You
mr.
chair
I
recognize
my
colleagues
points
and
will
respect
his
vote
on
the
motion.
It's
important
for
us
that
committee
to
be
humbled
and,
if
motions,
there's
a
motion,
that's
brought
at
the
table,
including
the
chairs
motion
that
I
will
be
supportive,
for
which
I
did
not
get
notice.
I
happen
and
you've
been
a
member
of
Council
for
some
time
and
I'm
the
one
who
directed
staff
years
ago
as
part
of
this
review,
to
add
the
governance
review.
So
you
know
if
this
is
new
information
for
you.
G
That's
fine,
but
I
certainly
have
been
on
a
record
for
years
relating
to
my
interest
in
going
to
a
non-for-profit
and
I
would
be
careful.
I've
heard
it
from
a
series
of
members
of
we're
not
doing
us
a
favor
by
challenging
that
motions
be
brought
to
the
table.
This
is
the
tools
that
governs
us
that
we
can
bring
motions.
You
can
vote
against
the
motion,
I'm.
Okay
with
that,
but
we
have
to
be
able
to
vote.
G
We
have
to
be
able
to
use
those
tools
and
not
be
worried
that
a
if
24
hours
in
advance,
we
didn't
do
that
that
we
won't
get
the
support
from
colleagues.
So
I
will
support
you
when
you
bring
a
motion
to
the
table
if
I
believe
it's
the
right
thing
and
I
hope
that
you
do.
If
it's
the
right
thing
don't
vote
for
a
motion
today.
That's
fine,
but
I
would
not
remove
that
tool
that
we
have
as
elected
members
at
committee,.
D
D
H
Sorry
we're
we're
modeled
off
of
what
was
originally
designing.
We've
made
some
adjustments
to
that
I.
Don't
think,
there's
any
Indian
intent
behind
it.
It
just
I
was
a
team
to
be
a
reasonable
distribution.
I
think
there's.
We
should
generally
have
more
BIA
interest
than
community
associate
Association
interest,
so
that
might
be
reflectable
that
okay.
D
Yeah
I
mean
I
guess
if
there's
interested
community
members
and
canvassing
them
and
maybe
worthwhile
saying
this
equal
amount,
but
I'll
leave
that
with
that
with
you
folks,
in
terms
of
the
the
process
here,
I'm
well
aware,
there's
going
to
be
some
areas
that
are
looked
at
for
more
paid
parking
areas
that
don't
exist
now
so
Westborough
old,
Auto
South.
It
could
be
looked
at
soon.
So
what
is
the
timing
if
we
pass
the
motion
today?
How
quickly
will
the
city
start
to
look
at
those
areas
that
are
currently
not
charged?
H
Well
well,
I
think
in
you
reference
to
us
for
our
Wellington
West
and
it's
been
discussed
at
a
couple
points
today.
We
are.
The
existing
study
that
was
tabled
in
2017
has
data
which
we
will
seek
to
update
and
I
envision
a
report
next
year
on
that
next
year,
next
year,
okay,
correct
next,
you
have
will
clarify
timing
on
that,
the
any
other
areas
we
will
review
in
the
course
of
doing
our
local
area
parking
studies
and
we
will
Demond
our
work
plan
as
issues
are
either
identified
to
us,
for
we
we
five
things.
D
This
clarified
scope
to
Road
services,
winter
non
winter
maintenance
that
most
of
this
is
where
there's
paid
parking
already.
So
if
there's
a
pay
parking,
they're
gonna
get
some
extra
funds
to
help
plow
that
street,
maybe
plow
the
bike
lanes
that
weren't
previously
plowed
as
a
result
of
what
we're
looking
at
now,
but
that
additional
funding
does
that
then
free
up
some
space
because
previously
was
funded
right.
Does
that
free
up
some
space
to
be
able
to
plow
residential
sidewalks,
or
you
know,
give
mr.
D
Denis
some
more
flexibility
on
other
areas
that
may
not
have
had
the
funding
previously?
Is
it
gonna
be
used
as
an
offset
or
is
it
gonna
be
used
as
an
increase
in
in-service
that
wasn't
there
before
on
those
on
those
roads?
I
just
want
to
clarify
what
we
have
a
bucket
of
money
that
we
spend
on
road
clearing
every
year
and
and
and
bike
lanes
and
other
sidewalk
clearing
and
so
I
just
want
to
know
how
that'll
happen.
H
So
the
the
increased
snow
removal
will
be
an
increased
level
of
service
being
provided
with
the
transfer,
and
we
currently
transfer
I
believe
the
numbers
three
point:
four
million
dollars
of
average
a
year
to
roads,
3.4
3.4
million
dollars
and
that's
to
cover
student
to
cover
costs
related
to
street
sweeping
snow
clearing.
And
it's
it's
a
intend
to
be
about
proportion
of
the
overall
road
network.
So
there's
a
calculation
that
goes
into
that
to
this
point,
that
calculation
has
been
updated
as
I,
outdated
and
somewhat
ad-hoc.
H
So
we
as
part
of
this
process
and
we've
gone
through
all
the
transfers,
whether
it
be
all
of
our
internal
transfers,
add
to
ensure
that
they're
appropriate,
and
so
we
fixed
the
roads
transfer
to
create
a
formula
from
it
that
is
repeatable
and
reflects
actual
costs
as
a
proportion
of
the
total
net
load.
Network
both
for
sidewalks
permit
parking
and
paid
parking
in
the
core
areas,
specifically,
okay,.
D
H
We're
correcting
for
what
was
already
transferred
and
what
was
already
transferred
was
based
on
metrics
that
were
20
years
old,
so
we're
bringing
that
up
to
date,
so
they're
based
on
2018.
If
we
were
recalculate
22
2018,
we've
identified
that
they're
the
transfer
to
roads
to
properly
account
for
the
work
that
they
do
and
in
a
within
the
parking
areas
would
be
seven
hundred
thousand
dollars
higher.
Okay,.
D
Okay
and
so
that
there's
seven
hundred
thousand
dollars
additional
going
to
there
and
then
we're
also
saying
on
an
operational
spend
item.
This
is
new,
would
have
about
400,000
going
into
things
like
snow
clearing
to
access
bike,
parking
facilities,
additional
staff
in
the
bike,
parking
area
and
other
sustainable
modes
of
transportation
spend.
So
it's
is
that
still
four
hundred
thousand
or
are
we
looking
at
more
a
larger
number
in
the
operational
side
for
that
on.
H
A
Thank
you
very
much
is
anyone
else
have
anything
to
say
no
okay,
well,
I
will
share
a
few
thoughts.
I
want
to
thank
our
staff
for
the
hard
work
that
they
put
in
over
the
last
year
and
a
half
two
years
to
develop
the
strategy.
I
know
that
it's
taken
a
huge
team
quite
a
lot
of
time,
and
it's
also
cost
the
city
quite
a
lot
of
money
to
prepare
this
report,
and
so
I
would
urge
members
of
the
committee
to
consider
that
carefully
as
they
make
their
decisions
today.

If
we
look
into
the
future,
the
parking
reserve
may
need
to
be
used
to
build
new
paid
parking
spaces,
and
so
therefore
the
account
might
and
is
probably
likely
to
drop
below
the
20
million
dollar
maximum
in
this
term
of
council,
if
not
shortly
thereafter,
based
on.
What's
on
on
their
horizon,
could
staff
comment
very
quickly
on
councillor
Bernards
motion
on
changing
or
adding
the
word
community
to
the
objectives
of
the
strategy.
H
A
So
perhaps,
as
opposed
to
voting
on
the
motion
today,
committee
can
provide
you
direction
to
explore
the
impact
of
such
a
change
and
report
back
to
us
within
a
reasonable
amount
of
time.
Yes,
we
would
take
that
direction.
Is
that
acceptable,
sighs,
terrific?
Thank
you
very
much
so
I
think
and
clerks
can
correct.
Me
I
think
the
proper
ordering
of
the
motion
should
be
councillor
flurries,
first
and
then
mine
and
then
the
report
does
that
sound
just
about
right.

There
is
one
councillors
item:
Femi
Laporte
and
colonel
kate
drive
speed
limit
reduction
that
the
Transportation
Committee
recommended
council
reduced
the
speed
limit
on
family
Laporte,
Avenue
and
carnally
Drive
from
50
kilometers
an
hour
to
40
kilometers
an
hour
for
the
entire
length
of
these
of
these
roads
to
carry
wonderful.
Thank
you
very
much.
