00:00:01,420 --> 00:00:18,960
Good evening, members of community and council. Welcome to this, the regular council meeting for August 17, 2020, 6th of the city of Mission. I'd like to call our meeting to order and say that before we begin, I'd like to acknowledge that we are gathered this evening on the NC did ancestral and shared territory of the Stullo people.

2
00:00:18,960 --> 00:00:23,440
And specifically, mission is located on the traditional territories of the KT, Quantland,

3
00:00:23,440 --> 00:00:26,900
La Camel, Mathqui, Samath, and Scalots, First Nations.

4
00:00:28,960 --> 00:00:34,160
I'd like to ask for a motion to adopt the agenda with one small change in it, and that's

5
00:00:34,160 --> 00:00:35,840
just the order of things.

6
00:00:36,160 --> 00:00:40,280
So item 9E will become D, and D will become E.

7
00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:43,680
So we're going to put them in reverse order, I'll explain more when we get there.

8
00:00:43,680 --> 00:00:47,960
And I'll select a smooth and it's seconded by Councilor Gil.

9
00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:51,260
I'll call the question on that first.

10
00:00:51,520 --> 00:00:52,720
Is there any other changes needed?

11
00:00:52,940 --> 00:00:53,900
All those of favor?

12
00:00:54,760 --> 00:00:55,280
Opposed?

13
00:00:55,420 --> 00:00:56,200
That's carried unanimously.

14
00:00:56,620 --> 00:00:59,340
I'll just acknowledge that Councilor Hamilton is ill this evening.

15
00:00:59,520 --> 00:01:03,020
Councilor's Davies and Hurrah are joining us online.

16
00:01:03,260 --> 00:01:09,460
Thanks for making that work because I know that some of you aren't feeling

17
00:01:09,460 --> 00:01:10,380
perfectly either.

18
00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:12,720
We move on to proclamations.

19
00:01:12,720 --> 00:01:20,320
So, the first proclamation is National Forest Week, September 20th to 26th of 2026, moved by Councillor Elias.

20
00:01:20,800 --> 00:01:24,020
The second by Councillor Gil. Any comments or questions?

21
00:01:24,820 --> 00:01:25,560
All of those with favor?

22
00:01:26,320 --> 00:01:26,740
Opposed?

23
00:01:27,180 --> 00:01:27,740
Care unanimously.

24
00:01:28,420 --> 00:01:32,620
Next is literacy month for September 2026, moved by Councillor Hurrah.

25
00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:34,720
Seconded by Councillor Davies.

26
00:01:35,460 --> 00:01:36,180
Any comments?

27
00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:37,780
All of those with favor?

28
00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:38,880
Opposed?

29
00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:40,480
Thank you very much. That's care unanimously.

30
00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:47,400
We move on to item 4A, a public hearing, and I will start off for A, by reading the public

31
00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:48,200
hearing script.

32
00:01:48,940 --> 00:01:53,360
So, this public hearing is being convened, pursuant to section 464 of the Local Government

33
00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:58,580
Act in order to consider proposed by the laws listed on tonight's agenda, copies of the

34
00:01:58,580 --> 00:02:03,060
relevant staff reports, and related information respecting the subject amendment by the

35
00:02:03,060 --> 00:02:07,940
laws have been available for public examination on the City of Mission website as part

36
00:02:07,940 --> 00:02:09,040
of the public hearing agenda.

37
00:02:09,040 --> 00:02:13,980
copies of written submissions for each application received by the submission deadline have been distributed

38
00:02:13,980 --> 00:02:18,260
to members of council and are available for public viewing on the city of Mission website.

39
00:02:19,620 --> 00:02:24,240
At this public hearing, all persons who consider their interest in property affected by a proposed

40
00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:30,420
byla, shall we give in an opportunity to be heard on matters contained within that byla.

41
00:02:30,780 --> 00:02:33,800
This meeting is being recorded and broadcast live on a website.

42
00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:39,100
The recording and the written minutes of the meeting will be posted later to the city's website as well.

43
00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:44,000
Speaker's are able to provide comments and ask questions by in-person attendance or by Zoom.

44
00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:49,340
Either by using a webcam and speaker or by phone using the instructions in a Zoom email invitation.

45
00:02:50,060 --> 00:02:54,240
If you're watching the meeting through our usual website link and are not participating by Zoom,

46
00:02:54,540 --> 00:02:57,960
please note there is a delay between the live meeting and the web broadcast.

47
00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:02,040
So I'll be allowing pauses between speakers to ensure everyone is heard.

48
00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:04,620
I ask for everybody's patience in that regard.

49
00:03:05,260 --> 00:03:11,080
Each peer-abler carrying item will begin with a brief introduction by staff member, followed by a summary of written submissions received,

50
00:03:11,620 --> 00:03:14,300
and then I'll open the floor to the public first, those on line,

51
00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:16,180
and then people in the chamber.

52
00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:19,960
And once acknowledged, each speaker must give their name at civic address for the record.

53
00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:22,880
Each speaker will be allocated five minutes to make comments.

54
00:03:23,300 --> 00:03:27,100
If you exceed that amount of time, you may be asked to conclude or you may be muted.

55
00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:31,920
After all others have been heard, those that wish to speak for a second time will be

56
00:03:31,920 --> 00:03:36,680
the opportunity to do so, on their provisional that new information is being brought forward.

57
00:03:36,820 --> 00:03:40,620
So it'd be clear that means information that has not been shared by any other speaker.

58
00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:45,320
Members of Council may ask clarification questions of the person after they've spoken,

59
00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:49,320
but the main function of Council members this evening is to listen to the views of the public

60
00:03:49,320 --> 00:03:51,140
and not to engage in debate.

61
00:03:51,700 --> 00:03:57,960
No presentations or submissions can be received by Council on any application after the public hearing for that application has been closed.

62
00:03:58,660 --> 00:04:03,740
When a public hearing for an item has been closed, the public hearing will continue to the next item on the agenda.

63
00:04:04,020 --> 00:04:06,120
Tonight there is only one public hearing.

64
00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:10,980
Council may consider third reading of any of the subject that bylaws later on this evening.

65
00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:15,740
With that, who is doing the presentation, Mr. Charya?

66
00:04:16,380 --> 00:04:21,100
So we'll have Mr. Charya come up and do the presentation for item 4B, a Official Community Plan,

67
00:04:21,100 --> 00:04:26,100
demanding by our 60-port-27, 20-26, 6-4-0-5-1.

68
00:04:30,500 --> 00:04:31,260
Thank you for this opportunity.

69
00:04:31,460 --> 00:04:32,360
Good evening, everyone.

70
00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:38,260
We're in Permit Area Guidelines.

71
00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:43,680
The recommendation is that upon completing the public hearing,

72
00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:46,880
Council grant, consider granting, third reading to the OCP

73
00:04:46,880 --> 00:04:59,940
demanding by loss 6427-2026-6405-1 which proposes to replace the existing appendix T which

74
00:04:59,940 --> 00:05:06,100
is the DPA guidelines that exists within the OCP as well as the maps which are scheduled

75
00:05:06,100 --> 00:05:13,960
10, 11, 12, 13, and 14, within the OZP by law, 6, 4, 0, 5, 20, 26.

76
00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:21,680
A little bit of the background, project was commenced in October 2025.

77
00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:26,240
It was funded through the grant that Province gave city.

78
00:05:27,060 --> 00:05:33,560
It is an OZP actionable item when the OZP was adopted in 2025.

79
00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:41,600
City Secure, a consultant, therefore planning and design from Victoria who helped staff and

80
00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:46,240
the technical working team, which was inter-departmental team, played in a advisory role.

81
00:05:47,100 --> 00:05:59,700
The phase one was completed internally to accomplish budget efficiency and all the gaps and issues with

82
00:05:59,700 --> 00:06:03,160
existing DPA guidelines, what identified by planners,

83
00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:06,240
who actually use it on every day basis when

84
00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:07,600
the process development applications.

85
00:06:08,860 --> 00:06:11,040
And that formed the foundation for the consultant

86
00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:15,820
to go ahead and start the work in phase 2 and phase 3.

87
00:06:16,340 --> 00:06:19,660
There was in-person stakeholder workshops,

88
00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:24,980
and also committees like the DLC and other committees

89
00:06:24,980 --> 00:06:26,640
reviewed provided feedback.

90
00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:33,640
There's community engagement and open-house for the community and some feedback was received then.

91
00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:38,480
And the final review and revisions were added.

92
00:06:39,300 --> 00:06:41,680
And then now it's here for Council consideration.

93
00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:46,020
Council did give first reading and second reading and now public hearing.

94
00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:48,080
Which is today.

95
00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:51,340
Quick facts.

96
00:06:51,700 --> 00:06:56,640
So part 14 of the Local Government Act comes under the Planning and Land News Management.

97
00:06:56,640 --> 00:07:10,280
DPs required only when a property is located within a designated DPA development permit area and that's outlined in the OCP and has a triggering activity that's proposed on site.

98
00:07:10,660 --> 00:07:14,800
The OCP must specify the purpose guidelines and conditions for the DPS.

99
00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:20,240
So, your mission, DPS Identify Locations, Requiring Special Treatment for Certain Purposes,

100
00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:26,960
before sub-division of land, construction of or addition to or alteration of a building or structure,

101
00:07:27,580 --> 00:07:29,860
alteration of a land example, grading.

102
00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:34,260
Add in the OCP, all these would trigger a development permit application.

103
00:07:39,540 --> 00:07:50,420
So the DPA guidelines, which were revised, were basically for staff to work on making them

104
00:07:50,420 --> 00:07:57,820
more clear, easy, easy to follow, remove a prescriptive approach, have a performance-based approach,

105
00:07:57,820 --> 00:08:05,100
have a streamlined process and add graphics that explain some of the design guideline content.

106
00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:09,160
The form and character DPAs and the environmental DPAs.

107
00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:14,000
So the geotechnical and environmental DPAs all are under this.

108
00:08:14,140 --> 00:08:20,360
And then the form and character DPAs are basically all kinds of development projects, commercial,

109
00:08:21,180 --> 00:08:22,380
all-day family industrial.

110
00:08:22,380 --> 00:08:23,480
I

111
00:08:27,700 --> 00:08:32,980
said the highlight was highlights were to improve clarity and consistency and modernize the guidelines.

112
00:08:33,540 --> 00:08:36,640
A lot of other jurisdictions have gone through this process.

113
00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:38,480
Reduced complexity.

114
00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:45,240
We also did the merging of DPAG and F, which is the Geotechnical and Fraser River,

115
00:08:45,680 --> 00:08:53,820
which was to simplify for the applicant one process and not repetitive two separate processes

116
00:08:53,820 --> 00:09:06,360
If the site triggered both, there's a hierarchical structure which is called design principles as well as general design guidelines that apply across the city.

117
00:09:07,340 --> 00:09:22,800
It is now typologies specific format, which means there are guidelines that ensure better developments for ground oriented residential development or apartment or mixed use or high rise retail commercial industrial.

118
00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:32,140
So, it's type-ology specific which is more simple to understand because it's form-based.

119
00:09:32,660 --> 00:09:39,460
Includes relevant graphics and there's flexibility over rigid prescriptive rules.

120
00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:45,000
It's aligning with the OCP and zoning and building code requirements.

121
00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:53,380
It also includes the CNPHA Hillside DPA guidelines, which were proposed and not formally adopted,

122
00:09:55,020 --> 00:10:01,240
and it's overall strengthening the environmental protection and hazard mitigation within

123
00:10:01,240 --> 00:10:01,800
the city.

124
00:10:03,620 --> 00:10:12,660
So, DPA guidelines, the content page actually is very clear in terms of what's included in

125
00:10:12,660 --> 00:10:26,880
DPA guidelines itself, it is streamlined, easy to understand and it includes graphics as needed.

126
00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:34,720
If you look at the typologies, it is again distributed based on the form itself, like I mentioned

127
00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:39,940
before. The SSMUH are included in the ground-oriented residential.

128
00:10:42,040 --> 00:10:44,300
And these are allowed

129
00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:54,310
because of the bills that promise required to sort of have infill options for existing

130
00:10:54,970 --> 00:11:03,290
single-family neighborhoods. So retail commercial and industrial have all kinds of design

131
00:11:03,290 --> 00:11:15,980
guidelines that actually require consideration for landscaping, access and other things.

132
00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:19,480
It's easy to follow format.

133
00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:24,460
It shows a feature image that explains the various parts of buildings.

134
00:11:25,420 --> 00:11:28,720
And also key guidelines that apply across a development.

135
00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:36,200
design foundations, considers the relationship between public and private spaces, especially

136
00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:40,100
for multi-family and mixed use developments that comes into play.

137
00:11:40,820 --> 00:11:48,880
For any new developments fit within existing neighbourhood or any areas that are in transition

138
00:11:50,220 --> 00:11:56,020
that are likely to change in the near future, it applies to all the form and character

139
00:11:56,020 --> 00:12:04,300
DPA and it also has an overarching framework for evaluating the design, which is basically

140
00:12:04,300 --> 00:12:12,220
the checklists that are more generic in nature, but also geographic specific checklists

141
00:12:12,220 --> 00:12:16,880
that will help evaluate what's fit within certain neighborhoods.

142
00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:24,440
These are just examples of some graphic that are many, many graphics in the document, which

143
00:12:24,440 --> 00:12:31,680
included in the package, but essentially if these were, these were to be explained in words,

144
00:12:31,860 --> 00:12:37,140
it would get really complicated. They say a picture is often a thousand words. The graphics

145
00:12:37,140 --> 00:12:42,920
help bridge the gap between policy language and real world application, making the guidelines

146
00:12:42,920 --> 00:12:48,640
more accessible and easy to understand for both applicants and decision makers as well as staff.

147
00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:54,960
these graphics help communicate concepts that can sometimes be difficult to convey through

148
00:12:54,960 --> 00:13:03,860
text alone, such as building orientation. Building orientation is very commonly used because

149
00:13:03,860 --> 00:13:10,040
it is the sun path and the entrance and how the heat is transferred into the building and

150
00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:14,440
things like that. But if that is explained through a graphic then it is much easier to understand.

151
00:13:15,620 --> 00:13:21,600
The intent is to provide developers, applicants, architects, landscape architects and staff with

152
00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:26,780
a clearer visual understanding of what the guidelines are trying to achieve, rather than

153
00:13:26,780 --> 00:13:33,660
having to interpret policy language on its own. Users can use and see these examples of the

154
00:13:33,660 --> 00:13:40,520
design outcomes that are required through projects. This approach helps improve consistency

155
00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:46,700
in interpretation reduces uncertainty during the design and review process and can ultimately

156
00:13:46,700 --> 00:13:54,780
lead to better quality applications being submitted from the outset. Sometimes we hear from

157
00:13:54,780 --> 00:14:01,300
applicants and developers that the application took too long. Well, if it's not a complete

158
00:14:01,300 --> 00:14:07,120
application or if it doesn't comply with many things, then there is a process that's involved

159
00:14:07,120 --> 00:14:11,760
and there's a lot of discussion and revisions that are needed, and that takes time.

160
00:14:12,520 --> 00:14:17,880
Importantly, these illustrations are intended to be educational and illustrative rather than

161
00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:24,000
prescriptive. They demonstrate the principles and outcomes the city seeking, while still allowing

162
00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:28,820
flexibility for different site conditions and creative design solutions.

163
00:14:33,810 --> 00:14:40,610
The administrative process just quickly go through staff level design reviews when the

164
00:14:40,610 --> 00:14:45,130
application is submitted, there are various professional reports that are submitted as part

165
00:14:45,130 --> 00:14:50,590
of the process, there is interdepartmental referrals, sometimes there are outside agency referrals

166
00:14:50,590 --> 00:14:51,750
as well.

167
00:14:54,190 --> 00:14:56,810
D, D, D, D, D, P, D, D, D, D, D, P, or review.

168
00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:29,900
Most of the multi-family commercial are all cancelled delegated. There's a landscape refundable deposit that's required. The DPs registered on title after it's approved. And it's valid for 24 months. The building permit application usually is submitted after the D.P. is approved. Sometimes there are time lags because the property might change hands. Staff ensure that approval approved D.P. drawings actually matched the building permit

169
00:15:29,900 --> 00:15:33,780
drawings because they could be changes and they could be properties that change hands.

170
00:15:34,740 --> 00:15:38,640
And final planning inspections are carried out to address the form and character including

171
00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:45,180
landscaping because there's a refundable landscape deposit that's held and needs to be returned

172
00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:49,320
after the landscaping is implemented.

173
00:15:53,160 --> 00:15:55,040
Steps today is the public hearing.

174
00:15:55,040 --> 00:16:01,460
If council deems appropriate, they could give the third reading tonight.

175
00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:09,460
We will come back for consideration of final adoption for the next council meeting after it's adopted.

176
00:16:09,460 --> 00:16:15,100
It will be inserted into those CP published on the website and the DPA guidelines project page,

177
00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:18,740
which is the project page has been updated regularly.

178
00:16:18,740 --> 00:16:29,040
So, the whole community, communities and everybody is informed of all the council reports as well as findings of committee engagement.

179
00:16:29,860 --> 00:16:43,820
And that's the project page and staff will prepare a report and submit to the grantor to make them aware of that the project has been completed and the cost incurred.

180
00:16:43,840 --> 00:16:44,720
Thank you.

181
00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:50,680
Thank you. I'll turn out to our corporate officer to summarize any correspondence received on this.

182
00:16:51,060 --> 00:16:53,040
We have not received any written correspondence.

183
00:16:53,480 --> 00:16:58,140
I think thank you so much and we'll now go to our online participants and see if we have any.

184
00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:02,520
And if so, if you'd like to speak to this, please use the raise hand function and Ms. Cooper.

185
00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:05,680
We'll let us know and promote you to present.

186
00:17:06,320 --> 00:17:07,680
We have no attendees at this time.

187
00:17:07,960 --> 00:17:11,440
Okay. Thank you. I will come back to you one more time at the very end.

188
00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:15,480
that people do have a desire to sign on, they can do that. Otherwise, I'll be calling

189
00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:21,420
three times here in chambers. The first time is there anybody in chambers this evening who

190
00:17:21,420 --> 00:17:27,380
would like to speak to this matter? Or a second time, is there anybody who would like to speak

191
00:17:27,380 --> 00:17:28,240
on this matter?

192
00:17:30,860 --> 00:17:35,040
Or third and final time. Is there anybody who would like to speak on this matter?

193
00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:42,280
Seeing none, I'll check one last time with the online. Do we have any of this? Still nobody there.

194
00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:46,920
Okay, thank you. With that, then I will close the public hearing Council have an opportunity to ask

195
00:17:46,920 --> 00:17:52,840
our questions and debate later on under the bylaws section of this. Thank you, Mr. Chariah,

196
00:17:53,220 --> 00:17:57,560
and we'll move on to ask for resolution resolved into committee of the whole, moved by Councillor

197
00:17:57,560 --> 00:18:04,620
Plexus, and seconded by Councillor Elias. Councillor Hurrah, I can see, but I cannot see Councillor

198
00:18:04,620 --> 00:18:11,750
Davies. Is he still with us? Okay, just must be the way that the screen is set up that I would love it if I

199
00:18:12,390 --> 00:18:18,910
Okay, I'd just like to ask if we can try and set it up so I can see both of you at the same time that way I can see how you vote

200
00:18:21,760 --> 00:18:24,760
There we go. Thank you. Excellent. So

201
00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:30,420
The resolution to move into committee of the whole has been made. I'll call the question of all those who favor

202
00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:37,200
Opposed that's carry unanimously. Next is item six a holiday lighting capital funding request

203
00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:42,420
I see verbal is it Mr. Haney or Mr. Crow that we're gonna have Mr. Haney come on up

204
00:18:45,620 --> 00:18:47,400
I'm really just here for questions.

205
00:18:47,700 --> 00:18:50,200
The plan this year is to give the main

206
00:18:50,200 --> 00:18:52,940
the grand tree a bit of a face lift and an upgrade

207
00:18:52,940 --> 00:18:54,980
and utilize those lights near the playground.

208
00:18:55,260 --> 00:18:58,280
Great, there are then any questions from Mr. He?

209
00:18:59,440 --> 00:19:01,840
Councillor Davis has a question.

210
00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:02,700
I do have a question.

211
00:19:02,780 --> 00:19:04,980
Thank you very much, Mr. Any pretty good question.

212
00:19:04,980 --> 00:19:07,980
Question is simply that I know you've iterated

213
00:19:07,980 --> 00:19:11,080
and growing this event year over year,

214
00:19:11,520 --> 00:19:13,360
but I'm wondering if there is actual plan

215
00:19:13,360 --> 00:19:16,940
that where this event is going to be in five or 10 years

216
00:19:17,480 --> 00:19:19,400
and how we're going to get there.

217
00:19:21,060 --> 00:19:23,760
That's going to be tied to the plan of developing

218
00:19:23,760 --> 00:19:25,660
the electrical through Centennial Park.

219
00:19:25,820 --> 00:19:29,280
But the goal is to eventually have at least two ends

220
00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:31,920
of the park lit up with the pathway connecting them.

221
00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:34,220
We'd really like to have a fully lit pathway

222
00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:36,980
five to seven years down the road.

223
00:19:37,660 --> 00:19:38,880
Great, thank you.

224
00:19:39,180 --> 00:19:40,520
Anybody else with questions?

225
00:19:40,520 --> 00:19:43,440
Councilor Gil and then Councilor Lass, is that a question?

226
00:19:43,660 --> 00:19:46,600
I was just going to talk about the motion afterwards, Councilor Gil.

227
00:19:46,940 --> 00:19:48,060
I think you through the chair.

228
00:19:48,340 --> 00:19:52,440
I know at the last one there was a tremendous amount of people that had come out

229
00:19:52,440 --> 00:19:53,020
Mr. Haney.

230
00:19:54,820 --> 00:19:55,680
And is there plans?

231
00:19:55,820 --> 00:19:58,540
I know at that time I think there was only one hot chocolate stand.

232
00:19:58,720 --> 00:20:03,920
The lineup was huge, but is there plans to just bring you more things for folks to do after

233
00:20:03,920 --> 00:20:05,620
the tree is lit up?

234
00:20:05,620 --> 00:20:12,620
We're going to make it a bit bigger for sure last year. We didn't anticipate those numbers, so we're going to enhance things a bit.

235
00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:13,420
Yep.

236
00:20:13,600 --> 00:20:14,780
Thank you.

237
00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:19,620
I have a motion for Councilor Elias in the comments on the motion. Councilor Elias?

238
00:20:20,160 --> 00:20:26,360
I just want to say thank you. I really look forward to coming to Santana Park every year and every year it gets better.

239
00:20:26,640 --> 00:20:29,480
So I look forward to what you're going to do this year. So thank you.

240
00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:29,800
Thanks.

241
00:20:30,500 --> 00:20:30,940
Thank you.

242
00:20:30,980 --> 00:20:36,740
I think we're ready for the question, although it's in favor, opposed to the matter is carried

243
00:20:36,740 --> 00:20:37,120
unanimously.

244
00:20:37,440 --> 00:20:38,000
Thank you, Mr. Han.

245
00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:38,420
Thank you.

246
00:20:38,420 --> 00:20:39,680
Thank you for the good work.

247
00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:45,300
Moving on to the item 7A, the property tax collection, my cheat cheats has simply

248
00:20:45,300 --> 00:20:49,980
that the Mr. Stewart is here if we have any questions, otherwise this is for information.

249
00:20:52,540 --> 00:20:56,840
Seeing none, I will move on to the next item and I know we have something coming up about

250
00:20:56,840 --> 00:20:57,540
consent agenda.

251
00:20:57,540 --> 00:20:59,580
And if you ever wonder what a consent agenda is,

252
00:20:59,700 --> 00:21:01,500
this would have gone under it.

253
00:21:01,600 --> 00:21:01,880
Excellent.

254
00:21:02,080 --> 00:21:03,540
And that takes us to the next item.

255
00:21:03,640 --> 00:21:06,700
Item 8A and Ms. Hubbard will give us a walk through

256
00:21:06,700 --> 00:21:08,940
of the council procedure changes she's proposing.

257
00:21:11,740 --> 00:21:12,000
All right.

258
00:21:12,260 --> 00:21:13,160
Good evening, Council.

259
00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:16,460
I'm happy to be here in my role as acting corporate officer

260
00:21:16,460 --> 00:21:20,000
to give some background on the amendments I am recommending

261
00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:22,560
for your council procedure by law.

262
00:21:23,360 --> 00:21:26,300
I'll provide an overview of the proposed amendments

263
00:21:26,300 --> 00:21:34,400
to the Bila and share the goal of each of the key amendments and chart the path forward and how we're going to implement this.

264
00:21:37,080 --> 00:21:45,880
So starting with why, why, why are we doing this? Why now? The overall goal of this Bila is to strengthen good government.

265
00:21:46,740 --> 00:21:55,360
And the amendments that I have in here, they're based on feedback from yourselves during previous presentations with RCAO,

266
00:21:55,360 --> 00:22:04,420
Barclay, as well as staff, our recent efficiency review, and the municipal advisor who did his presentation in January.

267
00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:15,080
And we are looking for opportunities to simplify our meeting flow, improve decision-making processes for Council,

268
00:22:15,620 --> 00:22:18,000
and make and agenda easier for the public to follow.

269
00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:22,540
All right, so for the proposed amendments,

270
00:22:22,540 --> 00:22:26,260
The main focuses are a revised agenda order.

271
00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:39,840
Introduction of the consent agenda, which Mayor Horn just mentioned, removal of the committee of the whole format from regular meetings. That's the format that we're in right now.

272
00:22:40,440 --> 00:22:47,520
And I'll talk a bit about that and update the notice emotion procedure and some other housekeeping updates and additions of definitions.

273
00:22:49,060 --> 00:22:59,820
As I mentioned, these amendments are intended to create a clearer, more efficient council meeting, process well-maintaining transparency and supporting informed decision making.

274
00:22:59,820 --> 00:23:05,760
well being aligned with the community charter. So I'll discuss each area now. A key

275
00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:12,080
change is a new agenda structure and what this is all about is adding some

276
00:23:12,080 --> 00:23:17,860
elements such as a consent agenda and removing the committee of the whole

277
00:23:17,860 --> 00:23:22,440
from regular meetings which would mean removing the rising report from regular

278
00:23:22,440 --> 00:23:23,060
meetings.

279
00:23:25,650 --> 00:23:30,230
Now what is a consent agenda? We haven't had them at the city of

280
00:23:30,230 --> 00:23:35,110
I believe, or it's been a while since I was on council the first time.

281
00:23:35,210 --> 00:23:39,830
Okay, yes, they're common with other local governments.

282
00:23:40,830 --> 00:23:46,610
And what they do is they group together routine controversial items for approval at one time.

283
00:23:47,390 --> 00:23:55,030
So an example they could be meeting minutes or information reports, things of that nature.

284
00:23:55,870 --> 00:24:05,310
But what they do is they allow for counsel to get through those items and accept them.

285
00:24:05,310 --> 00:24:10,530
And if there is a desire for anybody on counsel to pull it out and talk about it and make

286
00:24:10,530 --> 00:24:14,210
a recommendation, they can do so before the chair calls the question.

287
00:24:15,210 --> 00:24:21,070
So that is, to be clear, meeting minutes, hour meeting minutes would not be in a consent

288
00:24:21,070 --> 00:24:21,650
agenda.

289
00:24:22,390 --> 00:24:22,490
Correct?

290
00:24:22,490 --> 00:24:31,310
So committee minutes would be in there, but typically anything that requires adoption of its own wouldn't normally be in a consent agenda. Is that accurate?

291
00:24:31,970 --> 00:24:36,430
This would require adoption as well.

292
00:24:36,930 --> 00:24:45,410
So what we're thinking about and what we will be doing with a consent agenda is having a cover report from the corporate officer explaining what each of the items are.

293
00:24:45,410 --> 00:24:51,050
and whether it's received for information or accepting those minutes.

294
00:24:51,670 --> 00:24:54,190
So minutes is a common one that you see in consent to genders.

295
00:24:56,670 --> 00:25:01,290
When I would suggest that we need to maybe just double-check that I don't know whether

296
00:25:01,290 --> 00:25:05,450
or not a regional district, we don't typically see our minutes in the consent agenda,

297
00:25:06,270 --> 00:25:10,130
but I think it's just fine for the presentation this evening.

298
00:25:10,230 --> 00:25:13,870
I think that's the question that can be answered later on, so what you continue on.

299
00:25:15,920 --> 00:25:26,560
Okay, all right, so that was the consent agenda and now remove the removal of the committee of the whole from regular meetings.

300
00:25:27,320 --> 00:25:39,660
As you know, our current every meeting that we have in regular council meeting has the committee of the whole and this is something that was recommended by our municipal advisor to remove.

301
00:25:39,660 --> 00:25:43,380
It delays formal decision-making until after the rising report.

302
00:25:43,720 --> 00:25:46,640
So you'll notice on our agendas, we have our bylaws,

303
00:25:46,800 --> 00:25:51,840
they're often listed twice to be confusing for residents,

304
00:25:52,100 --> 00:25:53,320
trying to follow along.

305
00:25:54,600 --> 00:25:59,320
So removing this from our agenda will make things more streamlined

306
00:25:59,320 --> 00:26:01,480
and it reduces duplication.

307
00:26:01,960 --> 00:26:04,560
However, Council has committee of the whole,

308
00:26:04,760 --> 00:26:05,860
if they ever want to do one.

309
00:26:06,300 --> 00:26:09,180
If there is a desire to do one for something that's more workshop,

310
00:26:09,180 --> 00:26:14,060
a special council meeting, town halls, you still have them at your disposal.

311
00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:20,620
And there is an amendment to the process for a notice of motion.

312
00:26:21,320 --> 00:26:27,340
So this would be introducing a two-part process where you notice a motion from a member

313
00:26:27,340 --> 00:26:29,580
of council would appear on the agenda.

314
00:26:30,520 --> 00:26:35,140
But it won't be until the next meeting under a new section called business arising

315
00:26:35,140 --> 00:26:40,880
where Council will debate it, discuss it, introduce it, and make a decision on it.

316
00:26:41,580 --> 00:26:47,100
So, on the first meeting, it's truly a notice, you're putting it on there, you're

317
00:26:47,100 --> 00:26:47,500
seeing it.

318
00:26:47,780 --> 00:26:52,460
The second meeting, the Council member who came up with the notice emotion will introduce

319
00:26:52,460 --> 00:26:58,020
it, as well as there will be a short briefing note from staff with any important context to

320
00:26:58,020 --> 00:26:59,520
help with decision-making.

321
00:27:01,470 --> 00:27:09,630
And other proposed amendments are more housekeeping ones adding our new definitions as well as

322
00:27:09,630 --> 00:27:14,530
clarifying delegations that are excluded from legislative.

323
00:27:15,610 --> 00:27:18,430
We're from any legislation that prohibits public input.

324
00:27:18,710 --> 00:27:21,310
We wouldn't be able to allow delegations on that anyways.

325
00:27:21,990 --> 00:27:26,450
But in case somebody wanted to propose a delegation that was related to bill 44,

326
00:27:26,450 --> 00:27:29,830
are covered under there. We wouldn't be able to allow them. This just allows transparency.

327
00:27:31,310 --> 00:27:36,190
And another aspect is formalizing a procedure that Council has already started doing since

328
00:27:36,190 --> 00:27:41,170
January, which is the practice of asking questions before debate is open by the chair.

329
00:27:41,690 --> 00:27:47,030
So that will be in our Council procedure by law. So timing in next steps, well, there will

330
00:27:47,030 --> 00:27:51,790
be some internal staff training, getting everyone up to date with what we're going to be

331
00:27:51,790 --> 00:27:59,050
doing, making some communication about that internally as well as administration to prepare

332
00:27:59,050 --> 00:28:06,990
for a smooth launch. And timing, we're looking at November 9th to go live with this agenda,

333
00:28:07,470 --> 00:28:12,410
or with this new council procedure by law and our new agenda order will be on November 9th

334
00:28:12,410 --> 00:28:18,990
at the very first meeting. So this new format will be introduced with the 2026-2030 City of

335
00:28:18,990 --> 00:28:25,610
commission council and that is all I have for my presentation and do

336
00:28:25,610 --> 00:28:26,410
have any questions.

337
00:28:26,670 --> 00:28:26,870
Thank you.

338
00:28:27,010 --> 00:28:29,650
I just wait till I see my colleagues on screen and then I'll look

339
00:28:29,650 --> 00:28:30,190
for questions.

340
00:28:30,870 --> 00:28:32,630
Okay, I've got anybody have any questions?

341
00:28:32,810 --> 00:28:34,510
Councilor Placas is going to start this off.

342
00:28:34,850 --> 00:28:35,570
And I just answer her.

343
00:28:35,710 --> 00:28:36,350
I'm going to go to you next.

344
00:28:37,030 --> 00:28:37,550
Okay, thank you.

345
00:28:37,550 --> 00:28:41,650
Just curious on page 86 and outlined what the agenda should look for

346
00:28:41,650 --> 00:28:42,530
any regular council meeting.

347
00:28:42,550 --> 00:28:46,850
I just want to know, should be in says item nine division report.

348
00:28:46,850 --> 00:29:08,590
I know that's not on the as was before but what's division reports that from the department or what exactly so right now if you'll notice in our committee of the whole it's organized into departments so this is under corporate admin and finance so it'd be the same same idea that would be organized through their divisions.

349
00:29:08,590 --> 00:29:15,450
The other question was, we go to Correspondence, and that's not considered to be an item

350
00:29:15,450 --> 00:29:16,930
that would be consent part of agenda.

351
00:29:17,670 --> 00:29:18,410
That would be normal.

352
00:29:18,890 --> 00:29:20,190
Just, case somebody asks questions, right?

353
00:29:20,370 --> 00:29:20,790
Exactly.

354
00:29:21,130 --> 00:29:26,750
So the Correspondence is often an area where Council is making a recommendation, pulling things out,

355
00:29:26,830 --> 00:29:27,790
discussing those items.

356
00:29:28,090 --> 00:29:30,610
It's handled the exact same way as consent agenda.

357
00:29:30,830 --> 00:29:31,330
Exactly.

358
00:29:31,470 --> 00:29:34,030
Simply move past it, and you don't have to actually.

359
00:29:34,410 --> 00:29:34,930
It's unusual.

360
00:29:35,190 --> 00:29:37,470
We don't normally have to adopt the consent agenda.

361
00:29:37,470 --> 00:29:41,010
I don't think at the ones I'm going to, but we'll ask to have to check that, but that

362
00:29:41,010 --> 00:29:42,130
is a way it works similarly.

363
00:29:43,650 --> 00:29:45,550
I think for the answer last, do you have a question?

364
00:29:45,890 --> 00:29:50,130
I'm not so much a question, but I do like the Cassenta Gendez, I've worked with Cassenta

365
00:29:50,130 --> 00:29:56,230
Gendez for many, many years on the board's, I've represented, so I think it's a smart

366
00:29:56,230 --> 00:29:56,550
move.

367
00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:07,780
Okay. So, we have a motion, and any other comments from members of Council? Council? I have a question.

368
00:30:07,780 --> 00:30:12,600
I'm sorry, Councillor Hurrah. I'm sorry. You were next and I forgot to go to you. Councillor Hurrah, then Councillor Gill.

369
00:30:13,200 --> 00:30:18,980
Thank you, Mayor Hurrah. I just got a couple of just a clear clarification on two points.

370
00:30:19,380 --> 00:30:26,120
When you mean delegations, is that also included people coming to the council meeting and presenting at all?

371
00:30:26,120 --> 00:30:34,500
It means that it's just putting in place the policy that we already have that a person couldn't come for example and do a delegation on something

372
00:30:34,500 --> 00:30:36,760
where a closed public hearing, for example.

373
00:30:38,720 --> 00:30:38,860
All right.

374
00:30:39,180 --> 00:30:39,260
Correct.

375
00:30:39,260 --> 00:30:39,940
And all the questions.

376
00:30:42,800 --> 00:30:43,920
I'm sorry.

377
00:30:44,680 --> 00:30:45,940
Could you say that again?

378
00:30:46,580 --> 00:30:47,260
Question period.

379
00:30:47,380 --> 00:30:48,700
Are we still keeping question period?

380
00:30:48,780 --> 00:30:49,800
That was discussed.

381
00:30:50,660 --> 00:30:55,960
You know, I may know at earlier stage on this question period is still in the agenda order.

382
00:30:55,960 --> 00:30:57,720
It is number 14.

383
00:30:58,040 --> 00:31:01,480
Allegations in question periods were not changed after Council's feedback.

384
00:31:01,680 --> 00:31:01,960
Yes.

385
00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:03,980
That was taken clearly from Council.

386
00:31:04,460 --> 00:31:04,660
Council.

387
00:31:04,660 --> 00:31:06,460
Councillor Gilles question as well.

388
00:31:06,760 --> 00:31:10,440
So yeah, those two things I think Council expressed that they did not want them removed

389
00:31:10,440 --> 00:31:11,880
and they haven't been removed.

390
00:31:12,380 --> 00:31:13,160
Thank you.

391
00:31:13,180 --> 00:31:14,020
Councillor Davies.

392
00:31:14,920 --> 00:31:15,740
Thank you.

393
00:31:16,120 --> 00:31:20,240
With regards to question period, there was questions about whether or not there are options

394
00:31:20,240 --> 00:31:23,400
to improve or make question period more effective.

395
00:31:23,980 --> 00:31:25,520
Was there any changes done for that?

396
00:31:25,520 --> 00:31:29,580
This point there wasn't any changes to question period.

397
00:31:30,180 --> 00:31:35,600
I would suggest that the next council will have opportunity to look at the mechanics of the

398
00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:40,260
rules of order and things like instructions before, but they wouldn't affect the out for procedure

399
00:31:40,260 --> 00:31:40,980
by law.

400
00:31:41,340 --> 00:31:41,860
Jack correct, does that work?

401
00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:42,880
Well, exactly.

402
00:31:43,280 --> 00:31:45,080
And the timing for this is great.

403
00:31:45,260 --> 00:31:49,800
So when the new council comes in, we will train them once on our agenda process and our council

404
00:31:49,800 --> 00:31:51,200
procedure by law.

405
00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:53,520
That answer your question, Councillor Davis?

406
00:31:54,080 --> 00:31:54,340
Yes, sir.

407
00:31:54,340 --> 00:31:55,180
All right.

408
00:31:55,300 --> 00:31:56,340
I think we're ready for the question.

409
00:31:56,480 --> 00:31:58,720
I'll say thank you to staff for navigating through this.

410
00:31:58,740 --> 00:32:03,260
I think the timing works well and I like the fact that we won't have to approve the

411
00:32:03,260 --> 00:32:05,280
same thing 72 times in a meeting.

412
00:32:05,920 --> 00:32:07,500
I'll call the question, all of those in favor?

413
00:32:08,940 --> 00:32:09,200
Opposed?

414
00:32:09,220 --> 00:32:10,460
The matter is carried unanimously.

415
00:32:10,840 --> 00:32:12,100
Thank you very much.

416
00:32:12,620 --> 00:32:21,220
And now we move on to, let's see here, item 9A, which is an introduction report for 3, 4,

417
00:32:21,340 --> 00:32:23,080
and 3, 9, 9, Perndale Avenue.

418
00:32:23,080 --> 00:32:32,080
And this is just, if you have questions, you'd like Mr. Pablo to know for the when he comes and presents this, this would be the time to give him.

419
00:32:33,120 --> 00:32:39,000
Seeing them will move on to item 9B, which is an introduction report for development application.

420
00:32:39,800 --> 00:32:49,440
3-3-3-3-3, 12th Avenue. That's a really good hand by the way, 5-3. So I'd like to have that hand. It means I'm cheating if I have that many, but that's all right.

421
00:32:50,060 --> 00:32:54,360
Does anybody have any questions or comments that they'd like to incorporate, ask Mr.

422
00:32:54,400 --> 00:32:57,900
Public to incorporate an his presentation when this comes back?

423
00:32:58,440 --> 00:33:05,500
Seeing now, we'll move on to item 9C, which is 8977 Cedar Street, as a recommendation

424
00:33:05,500 --> 00:33:06,580
on this one.

425
00:33:06,780 --> 00:33:10,440
But wait, first of all, we have Mr. Public to do a presentation on this one.

426
00:33:10,840 --> 00:33:15,100
And then we'll go for council questions and motions.

427
00:33:21,150 --> 00:33:29,070
This presentation is for 8977 Cedar Street, an application that has been submitted by Dan

428
00:33:29,070 --> 00:33:34,370
Edger to reason on the property from suburban 20 to the institutional education zone.

429
00:33:34,790 --> 00:33:42,470
The proposed IE zoning would eliminate the need for ongoing temporary use permits associated with the continued education use of this property.

430
00:33:43,210 --> 00:33:49,230
The rezoning would also support the expansion of educational uses related to the adjacent school site.

431
00:33:49,230 --> 00:33:56,770
The city has been receiving temporary use permits and approving them since 2003 to facilitate this use.

432
00:33:57,350 --> 00:34:01,470
So this rezoning is really a formalization of that ongoing use.

433
00:34:03,170 --> 00:34:06,910
Sorry, this just demonstrates the surrounding zone in the neighborhood.

434
00:34:07,490 --> 00:34:13,410
It is an area that's expanding with multiple higher density products coming in to this area.

435
00:34:15,750 --> 00:34:18,290
We have the OCP supports this.

436
00:34:18,290 --> 00:34:24,930
We have some neighborhood centered to the north and obviously the institution will use for the school and this property itself

437
00:34:26,970 --> 00:34:29,930
And that's the ortho of the property

438
00:34:30,830 --> 00:34:35,510
That's all we have if you have any questions. Hey, is there any questions first of public

439
00:34:36,490 --> 00:34:38,750
accounts or go

440
00:34:38,750 --> 00:34:41,250
Thank you to the chair

441
00:34:41,830 --> 00:34:45,890
I'm just gonna put this out there. I know a little while ago. There was

442
00:34:45,890 --> 00:34:51,190
questions about just traffic calming in the area and maybe just a note for

443
00:34:51,710 --> 00:34:57,070
engineering when they do come back with their updates for engineering projects

444
00:34:57,070 --> 00:35:01,890
that I will ask the question if there's any traffic calming being explored

445
00:35:02,730 --> 00:35:05,670
but it's just because this application was there.

446
00:35:05,790 --> 00:35:07,370
I thought it'd bring it up.

447
00:35:07,850 --> 00:35:08,470
Thank you.

448
00:35:09,450 --> 00:35:12,990
Seeing no questions of motion, Councilor Elias moves.

449
00:35:13,850 --> 00:35:15,210
Any further comments?

450
00:35:16,170 --> 00:35:17,230
All those in favor?

451
00:35:18,570 --> 00:35:19,030
Opposed?

452
00:35:19,850 --> 00:35:20,430
Matters, Kerry.

453
00:35:20,650 --> 00:35:21,850
Thank you very much, Mr. Public.

454
00:35:22,390 --> 00:35:27,390
Now, as I said, I'm going to move to 9D after 9E.

455
00:35:27,930 --> 00:35:32,310
And so, let me introduce the rationale for this.

456
00:35:32,450 --> 00:35:35,470
And Mr. Public and answer questions as well.

457
00:35:36,970 --> 00:35:41,750
As you can see in the report, that's on street naming it, law to spillage.

458
00:35:41,750 --> 00:35:50,250
The development applicant and of the city staff are hoping that tonight we will name some streets so that they can have

459
00:35:50,830 --> 00:35:54,270
Building permits effects. They need address so they're going to building permits effects.

460
00:35:55,090 --> 00:35:59,430
Some of the names that were proposed were already in our list of approved names.

461
00:36:00,130 --> 00:36:05,770
One was not, and that's a curah. So it actually needs to come first to be approved.

462
00:36:06,430 --> 00:36:11,610
Secondly, I spoke today with the proponent, and I asked him why they chose LodgePoll, given

463
00:36:11,610 --> 00:36:15,470
the fact that LodgePoll is not an indigenous species to our area.

464
00:36:15,830 --> 00:36:20,170
He said he didn't particularly love that, and he, in fact, gave him some other names

465
00:36:20,170 --> 00:36:21,150
that were.

466
00:36:21,290 --> 00:36:25,050
Native plants, I'll give Council an update and say, I sent a quite a long list of names as

467
00:36:25,050 --> 00:36:25,850
well as to Mr. Pickett.

468
00:36:25,990 --> 00:36:29,470
They would expect we're going to see some new names, including some pioneer names that

469
00:36:29,470 --> 00:36:34,790
will be vetted, because that, as you may recall, from the Silverdale processes, both the

470
00:36:34,790 --> 00:36:39,230
one with GenStar many years ago, and the more recent one, people very clearly articulated,

471
00:36:39,570 --> 00:36:44,730
they wanted the place names to relate to the foliage, the animals, and the people from

472
00:36:44,730 --> 00:36:53,830
that area. So with that in mind, I'm going to be moving the street naming policy, STR 28 amendments

473
00:36:53,830 --> 00:37:00,610
that are there, in addition to three new names, and one of these names will replace something

474
00:37:00,610 --> 00:37:03,410
in the old 90s, I'll explain that before.

475
00:37:04,010 --> 00:37:06,830
So those three names in addition are Blackberry,

476
00:37:07,290 --> 00:37:10,890
Salmonberry, and Cascara, all of which are native species

477
00:37:10,890 --> 00:37:13,690
that grow in the air, Cascara, for this to pick

478
00:37:13,690 --> 00:37:15,350
Cathlete, I could see the look on your face.

479
00:37:15,710 --> 00:37:19,090
C-A-S-C-A-R-A, and as a tree that was harvested

480
00:37:19,090 --> 00:37:21,290
by Italian settlers for medicine.

481
00:37:22,210 --> 00:37:23,070
All right, there you go.

482
00:37:23,350 --> 00:37:25,610
You wanted to get the bark, because it was slippery,

483
00:37:26,170 --> 00:37:26,950
and it made the system.

484
00:37:30,000 --> 00:37:36,340
So I'll move that, and item 2 is still the same to consult with people regarding the street to boulevard.

485
00:37:37,800 --> 00:37:42,360
And that's been moved. And if you have any questions, you can ask me, or you can ask Mr. Publ.

486
00:37:43,540 --> 00:37:50,400
Seeing none, I'll call the question, all those in favour? Opposed? That's carried unanimously. Thank you.

487
00:37:50,640 --> 00:37:59,440
Now, going to item 90, the motion will be amended from the staff report, so that it now, instead of logical avenue,

488
00:37:59,440 --> 00:38:07,160
is blackberry Avenue, okay so otherwise the motion is there. I'll move that, but I'll be

489
00:38:07,160 --> 00:38:13,220
in the second here to have a question, okay. Are we ready? All those of favour? Opposed?

490
00:38:13,860 --> 00:38:22,640
That is carried, thank you. That moves us on to item 9F, temporary use permit at 7168

491
00:38:22,640 --> 00:38:26,620
rents street and this department has PowerPoint on this one.

492
00:38:32,870 --> 00:38:39,270
The brief overview on the proposed temporary use permit here, so the purpose of this application

493
00:38:39,270 --> 00:38:44,530
is to permit a toll operation and accessory uses through a temporary use permit for the

494
00:38:44,530 --> 00:38:47,870
property located at 7168 rents street.

495
00:38:48,430 --> 00:38:54,390
A toll yard is typically permitted in an industrial transportation use area, which is not permitted

496
00:38:54,390 --> 00:38:58,270
within the Properties Current CH2 Zoning.

497
00:38:59,690 --> 00:39:04,070
This site was historically used as a tow-heart tow yard previously.

498
00:39:05,170 --> 00:39:10,210
However, the use had ceased and the businesses had moved to other locations within the city

499
00:39:10,210 --> 00:39:19,250
for a period of more than six months, as such a temporary use permits required to renew the ability to use this property for this use.

500
00:39:21,520 --> 00:39:25,220
So this, an orthophoto showing the subject property.

501
00:39:26,800 --> 00:39:31,400
So while there is a recognition that this use may not be compatible with the long-term vision of this area,

502
00:39:31,760 --> 00:39:36,340
staff are recommending support for the proposed temporary use permit with the conditions noted in the report.

503
00:39:37,180 --> 00:39:42,660
And the understanding this use may need to find a permanent location in the future that's more suitable.

504
00:39:43,760 --> 00:39:44,860
That concludes the presentation.

505
00:39:44,860 --> 00:39:51,360
Thank you any questions for Mr. Pueblo, moved by Councillor Placus any comments on the motion.

506
00:39:52,620 --> 00:39:57,560
Seeing none, all those are favour, opposed. That's carried unanimously. Thank you very much.

507
00:39:58,260 --> 00:40:03,260
Now, Mr. Pueblo, item G, I'm a bit confused. You and I had a real quick conversation beforehand.

508
00:40:04,100 --> 00:40:11,540
So you had indicated that it's for introduction, but the motion here suggests it's for first reading and referral because it's no CP amendment.

509
00:40:11,540 --> 00:40:19,300
which is it's it's it's first reading on the on the OCP change. Okay, so I'll let you give some

510
00:40:19,300 --> 00:40:27,700
introductory remarks and then I'll see if anybody has any questions. So the this property and the

511
00:40:27,700 --> 00:40:35,580
property directly south of it have historically been part of the tree farm license TFL 26. Starting

512
00:40:35,580 --> 00:40:41,100
in 2024 there was a process to reason the property and subdivide the land to create this

513
00:40:41,100 --> 00:40:43,660
as part of a land exchange with a developer.

514
00:40:45,500 --> 00:40:50,280
Now that this parcel is been transferred into private ownership,

515
00:40:51,500 --> 00:40:57,220
it may not be appropriate for it to be designated as forestry,

516
00:40:57,400 --> 00:40:59,020
as municipal forest.

517
00:40:59,520 --> 00:41:04,440
And so the request has come forward to re-designate it.

518
00:41:04,640 --> 00:41:07,240
And that's why we're here tonight to look at first reading of this

519
00:41:07,240 --> 00:41:08,280
and start the consultation.

520
00:41:10,090 --> 00:41:16,570
Seeing no questions, I'll move it, it's the good faith gesture, I think that led to this

521
00:41:16,570 --> 00:41:23,430
swap, so we ended up with more force and more ability to harvest and more contiguous

522
00:41:23,430 --> 00:41:25,750
force, so it was a better deal for the citizens.

523
00:41:27,490 --> 00:41:33,550
And so there's nothing further, I'll call the question, see anybody else, all those of

524
00:41:34,530 --> 00:41:35,950
Thank you very much.

525
00:41:36,150 --> 00:41:36,730
That's carried.

526
00:41:38,710 --> 00:41:46,090
And we come to our last item, which is a wireless telecommunications tower temporary structure on 7th Avenue.

527
00:41:47,110 --> 00:41:50,550
Mr. Pablo is available for questions on this.

528
00:41:51,210 --> 00:41:53,330
Seeing no questions. Oh, Councillor Davies, go ahead.

529
00:41:54,370 --> 00:41:55,170
Thank you.

530
00:41:55,730 --> 00:42:03,250
This is a replacement tower, but on property, is this property tax exempt, does it change anything

531
00:42:03,250 --> 00:42:06,490
in the usage of that property for the cup two years it would be there?

532
00:42:06,790 --> 00:42:12,430
Other questions actually for Mr. Stewart, because if I know it's my mouth here, we actually charge

533
00:42:13,030 --> 00:42:18,050
a specific assessment for the portion where this is there in its 15x, if I'm not mistaken,

534
00:42:18,430 --> 00:42:20,250
that is correct and it will still continue to be tough.

535
00:42:20,250 --> 00:42:24,610
So, it typically is the sorts of revenue for the place where it's cited and for the city.

536
00:42:25,770 --> 00:42:26,670
Thank you. Thank you.

537
00:42:27,610 --> 00:42:31,470
Councillor Hararde, then Councillor Gill and Councillor Plexus.

538
00:42:33,430 --> 00:42:38,270
Thank you, Mayor Horde. Do we know how long the taram was truckable?

539
00:42:39,650 --> 00:42:42,910
Your public, I'm regretting that I told you we probably didn't need your powerpoint.

540
00:42:43,770 --> 00:42:45,090
I apologize. Go ahead.

541
00:42:45,390 --> 00:42:49,970
No, I don't have any history. I thought my head about the former location.

542
00:42:49,970 --> 00:42:55,510
other than it was located, as you've mentioned, on the top of the chart we'll building that

543
00:42:55,510 --> 00:43:01,590
recently suffered a fire as such. That service has been dislocated and we need they're looking

544
00:43:01,590 --> 00:43:06,830
for a temporary place with the hope that they're going to relocate there once that building has

545
00:43:06,830 --> 00:43:11,410
been reconstructed. Sir Stuart, would you have any indication? I know that would probably have been

546
00:43:11,410 --> 00:43:14,910
something that you could have dug out if we gave you enough time, but we don't know whether or not

547
00:43:14,910 --> 00:43:18,550
there's an assessment. How long that assessment that property has been there? I would imagine.

548
00:43:18,550 --> 00:43:23,330
I don't know. Okay. Thank you. I think third of the counts on her.

549
00:43:24,110 --> 00:43:26,350
That's good. Thank you, Councillor Gill.

550
00:43:27,190 --> 00:43:31,410
Thank you. So the chair, was there any other locations explored?

551
00:43:33,940 --> 00:43:36,400
My understanding that the applicant did explore a number of

552
00:43:36,400 --> 00:43:42,140
other properties in the area, including the hydro property directly to the,

553
00:43:42,140 --> 00:43:45,600
not directly, but to the east of the site.

554
00:43:46,220 --> 00:43:54,600
And this was the only location that they could get agreement with the property owner that seemed to provide the service the level of service they were looking for.

555
00:43:55,920 --> 00:43:56,600
That's sort of a plexus.

556
00:43:57,720 --> 00:44:01,600
Yeah, just curious as why they didn't require a temporary use permit.

557
00:44:02,520 --> 00:44:08,680
You know, and it indicated up to two years there's no indication through the report that they would be going back to chartwell.

558
00:44:08,680 --> 00:44:13,180
Now, once they've, the bill has been rebuilt, is indicates that they'll be looking for

559
00:44:13,180 --> 00:44:13,820
another site.

560
00:44:14,300 --> 00:44:15,620
So those are the two questions, Republic.

561
00:44:17,040 --> 00:44:19,420
So the first question is about the use here.

562
00:44:20,460 --> 00:44:22,500
So radio antennas like this are permitted everywhere.

563
00:44:23,200 --> 00:44:29,740
And the only time that we're coming forward with the, the asked for consent is when they

564
00:44:29,740 --> 00:44:33,800
exceed the heights dictated in our policy.

565
00:44:34,280 --> 00:44:37,260
So in this case, it's a 20-meter tall tower, and that's stimulated.

566
00:44:37,260 --> 00:44:42,440
they request for the consultation, where towers like this are located on the top of buildings

567
00:44:42,440 --> 00:44:45,800
or existing towers, no consultation will be required.

568
00:44:46,600 --> 00:44:50,260
So the ask here is really about the 20-meter tall tower.

569
00:44:50,820 --> 00:44:55,060
In a nutshell, we don't have the power to extend zoning a TUP's or anything like that here,

570
00:44:56,760 --> 00:44:57,140
I'll answer you.

571
00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:10,900
Very structure. So if they don't find a place to put it, they would still be in the same position a year for now, and they as far as I understand, spoken to the property owner, but it on a temporary basis.

572
00:45:11,720 --> 00:45:22,800
Yeah, and that's why staff have sort of processed this as if it's a formal application and not really sort of gone down the temporary path, because we don't have any guarantees at this point what the term is.

573
00:45:23,360 --> 00:45:28,540
But knowing that as a trailer mounted antenna, we recently don't expect this to be a permanent installation.

574
00:45:29,140 --> 00:45:30,320
All right, thank you.

575
00:45:30,580 --> 00:45:33,660
Do we have a motion for the staff concurrence council for a

576
00:45:33,660 --> 00:45:34,280
live?

577
00:45:34,560 --> 00:45:35,220
In the comments.

578
00:45:36,320 --> 00:45:38,720
My quick comment is I know that people have written about

579
00:45:38,720 --> 00:45:41,480
this but the structure that's been across the road has been there for

580
00:45:41,480 --> 00:45:43,660
some period of time and I think it's going back.

581
00:45:43,940 --> 00:45:46,820
There's no question in my mind that this is a simple

582
00:45:46,820 --> 00:45:49,460
practical consideration for the fact that something was

583
00:45:49,460 --> 00:45:52,160
damaged in a fire and neighbors are being good neighbors to

584
00:45:52,160 --> 00:45:53,720
make sure that we continue to have good

585
00:45:53,720 --> 00:45:54,920
self-connection in that area.

586
00:45:56,420 --> 00:45:57,120
Ready for the question?

587
00:45:57,120 --> 00:45:59,600
I'll call the question then all of us in favor.

588
00:46:00,560 --> 00:46:04,020
Opposed, Councilor Davies, you voted in favor, is that correct?

589
00:46:06,550 --> 00:46:06,830
Thank you.

590
00:46:07,030 --> 00:46:10,830
And Councilor Huron, Councilor Gil voted a contrary, but the matter is carried.

591
00:46:11,810 --> 00:46:15,930
And so that was the one exception in our report for the rise of report.

592
00:46:17,770 --> 00:46:19,290
So we will.

593
00:46:20,010 --> 00:46:20,290
Sorry?

594
00:46:20,850 --> 00:46:21,390
There goes my point.

595
00:46:21,810 --> 00:46:22,330
Exactly.

596
00:46:23,170 --> 00:46:25,870
So I resolution to rise in report, please.

597
00:46:25,870 --> 00:46:33,250
moved by Councillor Elias, seconded by Councillor Hurrah, all those in favor, opposed?

598
00:46:33,590 --> 00:46:34,030
It's carried.

599
00:46:34,610 --> 00:46:40,730
We have, I believe, unanimity on all except item H, so I'll ask for a motion on all

600
00:46:40,730 --> 00:46:41,550
of the items in the committee.

601
00:46:41,770 --> 00:46:47,090
The whole report, Councillor Elias, seconded by Councillor Plexus, all those in favor,

602
00:46:48,150 --> 00:46:48,450
opposed?

603
00:46:48,530 --> 00:46:49,030
Thank you.

604
00:46:49,430 --> 00:46:55,850
On the last item, item H with the wireless temporary tower, Councillor Plexus.

605
00:46:58,210 --> 00:47:04,810
I'll call the question of those of favour, opposed, Councillor Hurray and Gil are opposed to

606
00:47:04,810 --> 00:47:05,270
matter of carries.

607
00:47:05,610 --> 00:47:05,790
Thank you.

608
00:47:05,910 --> 00:47:11,150
We'll move on to committee reports and minutes for those for questions from anybody from

609
00:47:11,150 --> 00:47:11,650
Council.

610
00:47:13,270 --> 00:47:17,370
Seeing now we'll move on to Council meeting for approval, three sets of those for adoption,

611
00:47:17,670 --> 00:47:21,130
moved by Council for Gil and seconded by Councilor Elias, any areas or omissions.

612
00:47:22,470 --> 00:47:24,610
Seeing none, all those of favour, opposed?

613
00:47:24,610 --> 00:47:30,630
care unanimously. Now we'll move into bylaws. The Council Procedure bylaw is the first one,

614
00:47:30,670 --> 00:47:36,670
the first second and third green is that in 148, 223 on the agenda. Do have a mover.

615
00:47:37,190 --> 00:47:42,170
Councilor Plexus, seconded by Councilor Davies. All those in favor.

616
00:47:43,450 --> 00:47:48,950
Opposed. Thank you. It's carried. Official community plan amending bylaw for first reading.

617
00:47:49,190 --> 00:47:53,610
This is the Ainsworth property on page 229. It's the unaddressed property.

618
00:47:53,610 --> 00:47:55,770
Do I have a mover?

619
00:47:56,730 --> 00:47:57,370
I'll look online.

620
00:47:57,610 --> 00:48:00,290
Councilor Harar, seconded by Councilor Davies.

621
00:48:00,950 --> 00:48:01,530
Any comments?

622
00:48:01,990 --> 00:48:02,730
All those of favor?

623
00:48:04,090 --> 00:48:04,430
Opposed?

624
00:48:04,630 --> 00:48:04,970
That's carry.

625
00:48:05,150 --> 00:48:05,790
Thank you.

626
00:48:08,390 --> 00:48:13,630
14C is amended to Street Spruce Place, Blackberry Avenue,

627
00:48:14,110 --> 00:48:14,590
Sit-Go-A.

628
00:48:15,330 --> 00:48:17,410
And we had approved secure.

629
00:48:17,630 --> 00:48:20,530
So it should be in this file out because we went out of order.

630
00:48:20,530 --> 00:48:24,430
So, those four are here, so I'll get that for the staff again.

631
00:48:24,970 --> 00:48:29,070
Spruce Place, Blackberry Avenue, Sitkaway, and Secura.

632
00:48:29,350 --> 00:48:33,010
I can't remember whether it was a way or a street, but staff can amend accordingly.

633
00:48:34,390 --> 00:48:38,930
I'll move that to have a seconder, a seconder by Councilor Allah has called the question,

634
00:48:38,930 --> 00:48:41,310
all those in favor, opposed.

635
00:48:41,670 --> 00:48:42,150
That's carried.

636
00:48:43,310 --> 00:48:43,690
Thank you.

637
00:48:43,690 --> 00:49:00,670
Item D, the person second reading 8977 Cedar Street, from suburban 20 zone to institutional educational zone, moved by Councilor Gill and seconded by Councilor Hurrah, all those in favor, opposed that's carried.

638
00:49:01,430 --> 00:49:12,310
Now, the same exact property per third reading, this is at 8977 Cedar Street, Councilor Hurrah, do you want to move that one? Councilor Hurrah moves, seconded by Councilor Gill.

639
00:49:12,310 --> 00:49:18,490
I'll call the question, although some is favour, I suppose that's carried unanimously, thank you.

640
00:49:18,770 --> 00:49:20,770
We move on to the official community plan.

641
00:49:21,290 --> 00:49:24,970
This is the item that was in our public hearing.

642
00:49:25,610 --> 00:49:29,830
So because we haven't dealt with it before, I'll slow down and see if any members of the

643
00:49:29,830 --> 00:49:33,310
Council have any questions on this before putting the motion on the table.

644
00:49:35,070 --> 00:49:39,230
Seeing nobody with questions, Councillor Plexus has moved that seconded by Councillor

645
00:49:39,230 --> 00:49:42,330
Elias, comments or questions beginning with the mover?

646
00:49:43,350 --> 00:49:44,910
Yeah, I think very good.

647
00:49:45,110 --> 00:49:45,530
It's timely.

648
00:49:45,850 --> 00:49:48,910
I think that this is to modernize a guidelines.

649
00:49:49,630 --> 00:49:51,870
I know that a number of years we've been asking for this.

650
00:49:52,090 --> 00:49:54,050
I'm glad staff finally got through with it.

651
00:49:54,410 --> 00:49:57,650
It's a more from a prescriptive rose to performance-based approach.

652
00:49:58,150 --> 00:50:02,690
I think it's simplified language, and it gives greater flexibility for more concise

653
00:50:02,690 --> 00:50:08,210
documents, easier for the developers to read, and it aims to achieve the cities that develop

654
00:50:08,210 --> 00:50:10,450
I'm going to come so I'm quite satisfied with it.

655
00:50:10,730 --> 00:50:12,070
Thank you.

656
00:50:12,750 --> 00:50:15,470
Seeing no other comments, I'll quickly say this is a gain.

657
00:50:16,010 --> 00:50:18,630
I'll echo accounts of practice and saying it's overdue.

658
00:50:18,790 --> 00:50:22,970
A couple of things I really like about it is it allows for creativity,

659
00:50:23,450 --> 00:50:26,470
whereas now when people have come in and they add something that was creative

660
00:50:26,470 --> 00:50:29,030
but staff might have thought it was creative and liked it,

661
00:50:29,090 --> 00:50:32,630
but they really did not have the ability to move beyond the prescriptive approach.

662
00:50:33,090 --> 00:50:37,970
Here we can now work with people and achieve a desired impact in the community.

663
00:50:37,970 --> 00:50:43,010
I love the fact that there's this thought about the human scale and it also is something that didn't

664
00:50:43,010 --> 00:50:49,010
get talked about tonight, but we talked about ensuring that properties have distinctive architectural

665
00:50:49,530 --> 00:50:53,670
and landscaping elements, so that people are not always building the same boxes.

666
00:50:54,010 --> 00:50:58,330
We heard this earlier today, somebody who hasn't been there community for a little while and talked

667
00:50:58,330 --> 00:51:04,350
about how many different homes and different typologies of homes were seeing on the sides of

668
00:51:04,350 --> 00:51:07,530
our hills and long our highways, and I really like that.

669
00:51:07,530 --> 00:51:11,530
One of the things I don't like, and I think this will also help, is when people come in

670
00:51:11,530 --> 00:51:15,990
and they want to do the cheapest thing, that's old mission, and enough with the vinyl

671
00:51:15,990 --> 00:51:21,090
siding, enough with, you know, calling a rock, a piece of public art.

672
00:51:21,370 --> 00:51:26,470
I think it's time for us to build homes that have lasting value and contribute to our community

673
00:51:26,470 --> 00:51:30,170
fabric, and not just homes, but buildings in general, and that's the other thing I love

674
00:51:30,170 --> 00:51:30,370
here.

675
00:51:30,370 --> 00:51:40,230
And this further embeds our development permit areas in the environmental areas, so I really like the fact that we're protecting our streams and trees more effectively than ever.

676
00:51:40,390 --> 00:51:41,470
So thank you for that.

677
00:51:41,670 --> 00:51:45,450
To Missoucharia and the whole department and to verify consulting for their work.

678
00:51:45,690 --> 00:51:47,070
And to the community members who participated.

679
00:51:48,230 --> 00:51:48,950
We're ready for the question.

680
00:51:49,770 --> 00:51:50,730
All those who favor.

681
00:51:52,070 --> 00:51:52,490
Opposed?

682
00:51:53,150 --> 00:51:53,810
That's carried unanimously.

683
00:51:54,090 --> 00:51:55,310
Thank you very much.

684
00:51:56,110 --> 00:52:06,310
Now we go to item G, street naming Pearson way extension for third reading, page 341, moved by Councilor Gill and seconded by Councilor Plexus, I think I heard.

685
00:52:07,450 --> 00:52:08,830
I'll call the question of those with favor.

686
00:52:09,810 --> 00:52:11,330
I suppose that's carried unanimously.

687
00:52:11,990 --> 00:52:16,570
Next is adoption at 6211-2023-559-491-29.

688
00:52:16,650 --> 00:52:18,130
This is at 921-24.

689
00:52:18,690 --> 00:52:21,480
Seater Street to a multi-use townhouse.

690
00:52:21,480 --> 00:52:25,960
with like to move that. I'll watch my online calling experts to see if anybody wants to move that.

691
00:52:26,100 --> 00:52:27,120
Councilor Hurrah and Councilor Deep.

692
00:52:30,000 --> 00:52:37,220
Those are favour. Opposed? That's carried unanimously. And then street naming, bright and court, hashy,

693
00:52:37,260 --> 00:52:40,780
motostreet. Why don't we do that? The opposite way. Councilor Davies and Councilor Harar.

694
00:52:40,940 --> 00:52:44,820
Is that sound okay? All right. Councilor Davies moves. Councilor Harar seconds.

695
00:52:45,540 --> 00:52:49,540
We'll call the question on that. All those are favour. Opposed? That's carried unanimously.

696
00:52:50,560 --> 00:52:56,660
And then for adoption, this is item j, 6424, 2426, 5949, 215.

697
00:52:56,660 --> 00:52:59,360
at 3, 4, 9, 5, 1, Perndale Avenue,

698
00:52:59,920 --> 00:53:02,440
moved by Councillor Plexus and seconded by Councillor Gill.

699
00:53:03,460 --> 00:53:04,540
Any questions or comments?

700
00:53:04,940 --> 00:53:05,740
All those of favor?

701
00:53:06,580 --> 00:53:07,000
Opposed?

702
00:53:07,420 --> 00:53:08,080
That is adopted.

703
00:53:08,660 --> 00:53:09,240
Thank you.

704
00:53:09,520 --> 00:53:14,500
And lastly, for adoption, is item K,

705
00:53:14,820 --> 00:53:20,200
joining a meeting by last 6, 1, 9, D, 20, 23, 59, 49, 1, 1, 9.

706
00:53:20,580 --> 00:53:23,720
And it's from due to street from suburban 20

707
00:53:23,720 --> 00:53:30,540
to multi-init townhouse, moved by Councillor Elias, seconded by Councillor Plexus. All those

708
00:53:30,540 --> 00:53:38,520
in favor, opposed that's carried unanimously. Now on to permits the permit at 9124C street is

709
00:53:38,520 --> 00:53:45,240
page 46415A. Do I have a motion on the permit? Councillor Harard, do you want to move that one?

710
00:53:45,500 --> 00:53:52,200
Councillor Davis seconds. All those in favor? Opposed? I did not see hands from all my

711
00:53:52,200 --> 00:53:58,840
of Council. All those in favour? Thank you. Opposed, that matter carries 15B, Judith Street,

712
00:53:58,980 --> 00:54:03,800
84-51, for the development firm and on that property counts for a last, seconded by

713
00:54:03,800 --> 00:54:09,600
Councilor Plexus, all those in favour? Opposed, that's carried unanimously and then the

714
00:54:09,600 --> 00:54:15,240
temporary use permit, 71-68, Ren Street, moved by Councilor Davies and seconded by Councilor

715
00:54:15,240 --> 00:54:20,840
bill, all those with favor. Opposed, Councillor Plexus, you were a favor?

716
00:54:21,160 --> 00:54:27,140
If matters carried unanimously, we move on to correspondence. I'm going to speak myself

717
00:54:27,140 --> 00:54:35,660
after giving others a chance to speak to Edoms. I'm going to speak to 16A, C, and E. Is there

718
00:54:35,660 --> 00:54:39,740
anything anybody would like to speak to outside of those or including those?

719
00:54:40,880 --> 00:54:45,320
At him 16A, just following up, I have spoken with Ms.

720
00:54:46,420 --> 00:54:48,460
Oh, my gosh, what's Emily's last name?

721
00:54:48,580 --> 00:54:49,420
I'm having a happy shepherd.

722
00:54:49,420 --> 00:54:51,600
Shepherd, thank you.

723
00:54:51,900 --> 00:54:55,620
About there are life jackets and signs at Stave Lake

724
00:54:55,620 --> 00:54:57,900
and we really would encourage people to use those.

725
00:54:58,220 --> 00:55:02,180
We cannot have these types of tragedies in our community.

726
00:55:02,840 --> 00:55:05,960
We thank Mr. Forrest for writing, but it really

727
00:55:05,960 --> 00:55:07,660
it's up to us to share these messages.

728
00:55:07,660 --> 00:55:19,360
I'm going to come back to 16 second last, I should say, just an updated council, I'll be speaking to the minister of housing tomorrow and asking her for an update.

729
00:55:19,740 --> 00:55:25,800
There are some things in this letter that are good news, some things that are unclear, such as what's intended for that property down the line.

730
00:55:25,980 --> 00:55:32,420
So I'll be conveying council's desire to see the property continue to be used for the purpose that we were encouraged,

731
00:55:32,420 --> 00:55:38,420
was likely to what we were told was going to happen in the first place there, namely to support women and families.

732
00:55:39,880 --> 00:55:47,380
Next is item 16C and I'll actually suggest to Council. They turned to that piece of correspondence on page 477.

733
00:55:49,100 --> 00:56:00,540
The town of Lake Cowachin has adopted this election pledge and I did the research.

734
00:56:00,540 --> 00:56:06,020
I went online, there's a website that's campaign, and quite frankly, I thought it was simple

735
00:56:06,020 --> 00:56:12,840
and brilliant and worth doing, and I can either move that we adopted ourselves now or make

736
00:56:12,840 --> 00:56:13,540
a notice of motion.

737
00:56:13,700 --> 00:56:17,660
This is on page 477, let me read it out while you look for it, Councillor.

738
00:56:19,220 --> 00:56:25,240
The elect respect pledge states that we will treat others with respect in all spaces, public

739
00:56:25,240 --> 00:56:30,220
private and online, reject and call out harassment, abuse and personal attacks, focus

740
00:56:30,220 --> 00:56:35,120
to be it on ideas and policies, not personal attacks, help build a supportive call to where

741
00:56:35,120 --> 00:56:39,820
people of all backgrounds feel safe to run for and hold office, call on relevant authorities

742
00:56:39,820 --> 00:56:44,260
to ensure the protection of elected officials who face abuse or threats and model integrity

743
00:56:44,260 --> 00:56:48,980
and respect by holding one another to the highest standards of conduct. Which is really

744
00:56:48,980 --> 00:56:53,860
I think something we all craved in the last election. So I'm going to move that we take

745
00:56:53,860 --> 00:56:58,200
that same pledge, even though I'm not running, I think it would be good to encourage the

746
00:56:58,200 --> 00:57:03,240
community to do that at a second. Councillor Gill, thank you for that. Any comments?

747
00:57:04,860 --> 00:57:08,820
I'll call the question then. I can't see my colleagues. I'll get, thank you very much.

748
00:57:09,220 --> 00:57:12,880
Councillor Hurrah and Councillor Davies. I didn't see whether you had your hand up when I asked

749
00:57:12,880 --> 00:57:22,400
if there's any comments. I just want to completely agree. This is a fantastic message to send.

750
00:57:22,400 --> 00:57:27,640
It's, you know, which I wish and hope that everybody would operate in the same thing.

751
00:57:27,980 --> 00:57:28,380
Thank you.

752
00:57:29,560 --> 00:57:32,300
The electrospect.ca is the website.

753
00:57:32,500 --> 00:57:35,360
Now, I would encourage you to go there and it gives you resources to use in your social

754
00:57:35,360 --> 00:57:35,760
media.

755
00:57:35,880 --> 00:57:41,020
And I would encourage any candidate to also state that they themselves are taking this in the

756
00:57:41,020 --> 00:57:41,220
approach.

757
00:57:41,240 --> 00:57:46,640
I think it separates the people who are coming into the public space for a meaningful debate.

758
00:57:46,860 --> 00:57:51,360
And a one that's serving the community versus things that are perhaps about hurting

759
00:57:51,360 --> 00:57:56,200
others or self-serving. And we don't need that in our community. It's been a tough time as it is.

760
00:57:56,460 --> 00:58:01,400
Let's make this a refreshing, positive, constructive election. I'll call the question.

761
00:58:01,460 --> 00:58:06,740
Then all is in favor. Opposed? That's carried unanimously. Thanks to all for the support there.

762
00:58:08,160 --> 00:58:12,540
Well, now we want to new business. And what I'm going to start with my online colleagues and start with

763
00:58:12,540 --> 00:58:16,360
Councilor Davie, just because I see he's got his microphone on. And then I'll go to Councilor

764
00:58:16,360 --> 00:58:20,060
And I'll start with Councillor Plexus and look my way across after that.

765
00:58:20,220 --> 00:58:22,000
I have no update, thank you.

766
00:58:22,260 --> 00:58:22,960
Thank you.

767
00:58:23,840 --> 00:58:24,400
Councillor Hurrah.

768
00:58:24,980 --> 00:58:26,040
No update, Mayor Hurrah.

769
00:58:26,320 --> 00:58:26,780
Thank you.

770
00:58:27,120 --> 00:58:27,640
Councillor Plexus?

771
00:58:28,620 --> 00:58:31,660
Just this has been a long time, like three weeks, you have to go back and remember, what

772
00:58:31,660 --> 00:58:32,800
did it four weeks ago?

773
00:58:33,120 --> 00:58:33,680
Four weeks ago.

774
00:58:33,920 --> 00:58:34,100
Yeah.

775
00:58:34,780 --> 00:58:39,420
I attended a joint shared services, a meeting in Abbott's Fair, the Water and Sure Commission

776
00:58:39,420 --> 00:58:44,000
and we're now in the process of looking at our Water and Sure Master plans for the regional

777
00:58:44,570 --> 00:58:44,800
district.

778
00:58:44,800 --> 00:58:48,660
The regional between Afghanistan and us, I attended the mission to help the community meeting.

779
00:58:49,280 --> 00:58:50,840
To weeks ago, it was very good meeting.

780
00:58:52,700 --> 00:58:58,920
The community is trying to formalize its strategic priorities starting the September.

781
00:58:59,020 --> 00:59:02,660
I think the mayor wants to see the opportunity for a candidate to attend that as well.

782
00:59:02,900 --> 00:59:03,760
It was a very important meeting.

783
00:59:04,120 --> 00:59:09,060
There's a good point that we're shared from the hospital as well as from Judith Ray,

784
00:59:09,360 --> 00:59:11,380
and I'll leave it for them to share that publicly.

785
00:59:11,380 --> 00:59:13,360
I don't know, it's open information.

786
00:59:13,880 --> 00:59:17,320
Also attended the wetlands, the young lady here in Mission,

787
00:59:17,520 --> 00:59:21,640
that did a Parks and Recreation, that did a walk.

788
00:59:22,060 --> 00:59:24,300
Walk, yeah, audio walk, yeah audio walk.

789
00:59:24,360 --> 00:59:26,580
And they attended that and went on the walk

790
00:59:26,580 --> 00:59:28,520
and listened to the storyline was very good.

791
00:59:28,700 --> 00:59:31,120
And they also attended the under 18 baseball

792
00:59:31,120 --> 00:59:32,400
thing and behalf of the mayor.

793
00:59:32,820 --> 00:59:34,560
Unfortunately, they didn't get an opportunity to do a presentation

794
00:59:34,560 --> 00:59:37,060
because they had got off to a late start.

795
00:59:37,460 --> 00:59:38,920
That morning, so I was there for that.

796
00:59:39,460 --> 00:59:40,340
Thank you so much.

797
00:59:40,340 --> 00:59:42,640
and glad you're pitching arm is still a good shape

798
00:59:42,640 --> 00:59:44,880
for the over 18s next year.

799
00:59:46,260 --> 00:59:47,140
Councillor Gill.

800
00:59:47,840 --> 00:59:49,420
Thank you through the chair.

801
00:59:50,420 --> 00:59:52,160
Thank you, Councillor Pluckus.

802
00:59:52,380 --> 00:59:54,640
I'm touching on the audio walk I actually had a chance

803
00:59:54,640 --> 00:59:56,980
to attend it, and I want to thank community future.

804
01:00:00,000 --> 01:00:28,100
A chance to attend the downtown business association meeting, and I know Council has received a letter regarding their concerns about a temporary use permit of a potential shelter, but it's something I know Council has an application Council hasn't seen, but I think they're just being proactive there. And then also on September 9, the downtown business association will also be holding their AGM at the copper hall.

805
01:00:28,580 --> 01:00:30,440
Thank you very much, Councilor Lys.

806
01:00:31,180 --> 01:00:32,320
Yeah, thank you very much.

807
01:00:32,540 --> 01:00:37,380
Unfortunately, our accessibility committee meeting was Council due to no

808
01:00:37,380 --> 01:00:38,760
quorum, which was unfortunate.

809
01:00:40,280 --> 01:00:42,540
But it was a great few weeks off.

810
01:00:42,700 --> 01:00:45,180
I got to really enjoy everything in the community.

811
01:00:46,200 --> 01:00:51,220
But I do just want to give, say something in regards to my heart being out with everybody

812
01:00:51,220 --> 01:00:53,820
and all the communities that are affected due to the wildfires.

813
01:00:54,240 --> 01:00:55,980
I just want to remind our community as well,

814
01:00:55,980 --> 01:00:58,160
because we've done some patrols,

815
01:00:58,320 --> 01:01:00,700
and we're still finding people having fires in our backyard

816
01:01:00,700 --> 01:01:01,820
and in Stave.

817
01:01:02,400 --> 01:01:04,700
And I just want to ask people not to,

818
01:01:05,020 --> 01:01:06,800
like just don't have a fire.

819
01:01:07,540 --> 01:01:09,300
But my heart does go out to those communities

820
01:01:09,300 --> 01:01:11,360
that are being faced with all the evacuations.

821
01:01:12,260 --> 01:01:12,640
Very much.

822
01:01:13,460 --> 01:01:15,880
Thank you, that prompts me to speak out to myself

823
01:01:15,880 --> 01:01:17,400
for one of my colleagues in Council

824
01:01:17,400 --> 01:01:22,000
to pickly attend a weekly briefing held by the Ministry

825
01:01:22,000 --> 01:01:30,660
of forest, EMCR, and Waterland, and Resource Stewardship, and it's really, we are in

826
01:01:30,660 --> 01:01:35,200
dire straits that don't think anybody has to see beyond the outside the window right now

827
01:01:35,200 --> 01:01:37,260
to see how terrible things are.

828
01:01:38,020 --> 01:01:44,900
We had a fire just about 6k north of Dixon Lake, which is a major water source for mission

829
01:01:44,900 --> 01:01:45,620
in Avatsford.

830
01:01:45,720 --> 01:01:50,900
Luckily it was just under 14 hectares and did not do worse than they have got it held under

831
01:01:50,900 --> 01:01:57,180
control. It was listed on BC wildfire as twin lakes. I think that might have been a misprint

832
01:01:57,180 --> 01:02:01,620
which should have been twin bridges as the name of the area. But in any event, we want to

833
01:02:01,620 --> 01:02:06,920
think BC wildfire service and I want to really, really encourage people to make sure not only

834
01:02:06,920 --> 01:02:12,480
that they're doing what Councilor Lyus said in minding the fire regulations, but also really

835
01:02:12,480 --> 01:02:18,120
understanding how they can make sure that they don't spread risk of fire in the back country.

836
01:02:18,120 --> 01:02:23,280
A lot of communities in this most recent update are asking the power, asking the province

837
01:02:23,280 --> 01:02:26,440
for the power to close the back country and not just to forest fires.

838
01:02:27,000 --> 01:02:31,980
When the biggest issues that we have are people using off-road vehicles without spark arrestors,

839
01:02:32,420 --> 01:02:37,020
or taking poorly tuned cars, if you, for example, have brakes that are metal on metal,

840
01:02:37,180 --> 01:02:39,680
you are what they mean by human cause fire.

841
01:02:39,780 --> 01:02:44,180
Very small number of these fires are caused by people who are reckless with cigarettes,

842
01:02:44,180 --> 01:02:52,720
or arson or campfires, all of those are causes, but by far, I asked about this, the bigger

843
01:02:52,720 --> 01:02:58,980
issue are people using machines, including the average family vehicle in the country without

844
01:02:58,980 --> 01:03:04,700
thinking about the management of that mechanical device. You should also make sure if you have it,

845
01:03:04,760 --> 01:03:12,700
I was asked by a citizen, what app do we use? We use alert and you can download it for free and it will

846
01:03:12,700 --> 01:03:20,660
you to fire flood traffic issues in your area. So both of these apps, PC wildfire, and alert,

847
01:03:20,660 --> 01:03:25,910
alert a bowl, I should say, are both available for free online and I would recommend you use them.

848
01:03:28,260 --> 01:03:33,700
The Mission Healthy Community Council has come up to us. Met and has narrowed down the last year

849
01:03:33,700 --> 01:03:38,250
of their plan to five priorities, three of which are a particular to take action. The fourth one,

850
01:03:39,010 --> 01:03:49,130
I think it's about car 67, we're waiting for our new OIC to come and we'll chat with him about that and the next one is about working in partnership with First Nations.

851
01:03:49,290 --> 01:03:53,110
We have to check and see what their appetite is to do that right now.

852
01:03:53,390 --> 01:04:00,570
But Councillor Plectives is right, we want all members of the Council and community who are interested in what this committee is doing to come to the next meeting.

853
01:04:00,570 --> 01:04:05,730
I don't have the date in front of me right now, but I have emailed staff to let all of

854
01:04:05,730 --> 01:04:06,270
Council know.

855
01:04:06,450 --> 01:04:09,450
And if you are interested, you can email me and I'll get that information.

856
01:04:09,870 --> 01:04:13,730
They're always public, but in particular, it's a good time when we have so many people who

857
01:04:13,730 --> 01:04:18,150
are interested in our Council, this is probably our biggest committee, and it really represents

858
01:04:18,150 --> 01:04:22,430
all of our cross-section of health and human services in our community.

859
01:04:23,090 --> 01:04:28,090
Mission Food Coalition is also near down there, strategic plan, to three priorities in the

860
01:04:28,090 --> 01:04:35,190
to present. The Stone Soup Committee is working hard and we have secured somebody to do the Stone Soup website update.

861
01:04:35,630 --> 01:04:39,990
If you're familiar with the green card, that's the written version of the resources in our community.

862
01:04:40,570 --> 01:04:43,210
The vision with the website is to create a web-based directory.

863
01:04:43,770 --> 01:04:48,790
If you operate a not-for-profit or even an informal organization in the community that helps people,

864
01:04:48,790 --> 01:04:57,030
whether it's with mentorship, employment, housing, food, helping people to get their financial affairs in order.

865
01:04:57,030 --> 01:05:03,330
You can email me at the city at pHLrNitmission.ca and I'll show you how to enter that information into this database.

866
01:05:04,170 --> 01:05:12,050
And I'll remind people that we are actively going through the rollout of our automated garbage collection or waste collection.

867
01:05:12,190 --> 01:05:16,390
It's all at waste collection and under the tutelage of this is how we roll.

868
01:05:17,070 --> 01:05:26,450
And really great opportunity for people to get out and actually see the containers and decide which ones they want themselves and to understand more about it.

869
01:05:26,450 --> 01:05:31,590
I think the key message for people to understand is that not only will this make it easier for people

870
01:05:31,590 --> 01:05:36,510
to get their garbage out to the road every day because it's a wheeled tote, but it turns out

871
01:05:36,510 --> 01:05:42,590
it was actually the less expensive option and the more reliable option than having human-powered

872
01:05:42,590 --> 01:05:47,610
collection as we have for so many years. So please learn more about that by going to mission.ca.

873
01:05:49,230 --> 01:05:54,770
And with that, we'll go to notices of motion. I just want to give Council a bit of notice right now.

874
01:05:54,770 --> 01:05:59,450
I haven't got a formal motion, but I'm working with Mr. Pit Kethley right now, and Mr.

875
01:05:59,730 --> 01:06:06,070
Pain, similar to the committed head struggles with Quorum at the Sustainable Housing

876
01:06:06,070 --> 01:06:06,470
Committee.

877
01:06:07,370 --> 01:06:11,250
So at the most recent community, well, this, sorry, Mr. Now, the community team, we talked

878
01:06:11,250 --> 01:06:15,810
about whether or not that work really is more social in nature and should did dealt with

879
01:06:15,810 --> 01:06:16,010
there.

880
01:06:16,010 --> 01:06:18,230
So Mr. Pit Kethley and I will work.

881
01:06:18,430 --> 01:06:23,030
We may have something on that next agenda about that, or it may come to the subsequent

882
01:06:23,030 --> 01:06:27,170
Council, but that's still where we are right now, but I think the structure needs to be looked at.

883
01:06:27,350 --> 01:06:32,050
And it may be the same with yours. Okay, so if I all mean to have a conversation with me about that.

884
01:06:32,670 --> 01:06:37,770
And without we'll go to question period. If you have a matter of a question for any matter other than the public hearing

885
01:06:37,770 --> 01:06:44,090
this evening, please come to the microphone. It should be from the agenda by again, it cannot be the one item that was in the public hearing.

886
01:06:44,670 --> 01:06:45,570
Please come forward.

887
01:06:48,510 --> 01:06:51,610
Seeing nobody coming forward, a motion to adjourn will be in order.

888
01:06:51,610 --> 01:06:54,850
by Councilor Elias and Secretary by Councilor Harar.

889
01:06:55,370 --> 01:06:56,150
All those are favorite.

890
01:06:56,970 --> 01:06:57,790
Post, we're adjourned.

891
01:06:57,930 --> 01:06:58,310
Thanks, sir.
