[5:24] Thank you very much Mr. City Manager. We have a
[5:26] second addendum item that I am adding. It's a member's
[5:29] resolution that was circulated to members of council earlier today
[5:32] entitled honouring and commemorating the victims of mass murder in
[5:36] Iran. Can I please get a motion to add the
[5:39] addendum items to the agenda move by Councillor answer a
[5:42] seconded by the deputy mayor all in favor. All in
[5:48] favor. That is unanimously carried. Thank you very much. Now
[5:52] voting on the agenda as amended all in favor. That
[5:55] has carried. Are there any disclosures of interest? Councillor Racco?
[6:00] Mr. Chairman, I dictator report number 26 item number seven
[6:06] as I have done already a committee of the hall.
[6:08] Thank you very much. Councillor Ferry. Thank you Mr. Mayor.
[6:15] With respect to special counsel of June 16 2026 agenda
[6:20] item one 2026 development charge background study. I neglected to
[6:26] declare a potential indirect interest on the above noted matter
[6:30] before council. It is my practice with early review all
[6:35] agenda items which I did on June 16 2026. I
[6:39] made a declaration at the committee the whole two related
[6:42] to the above noted matter out in abundance of caution.
[6:48] The timing of the special council meeting resulted in an
[6:51] expert that it process I did not identify the potential
[6:54] conflict in advance through inadvertance occasion by the aforementioned expedited
[7:01] process. This was inadvertent. Oversight and there was no intention
[7:09] to withhold the disclosure. Evidence by the fact that the
[7:13] disclosure was in fact made as it relates to the
[7:16] committee of the whole agenda. I am providing this declaration
[7:21] of interest to ensure that the potential interest is disclosed.
[7:26] And with respect to item 29 of the committee, the
[7:30] whole two. I declare an interest on 2432 and 33.
[7:36] And with regards to report 30 committee, the whole closed
[7:40] session. I declared an interest on item 12 and 19.
[7:45] Thank you Mr. Mayor. Thank you, Councillor Ferry. Mr. Clerk,
[7:48] you've got all of those disclosures. Wonderful. Thank you. Can
[7:51] I please get a mover in second or do adopt
[7:53] the minutes of the council meeting of May 26 in

[9:42] Okay. Today we have two ceremonial presentations. I'm very excited

[9:49] the first one and then I'll be turning things over
[9:52] to, um, Shannon, who I see is making her way.
[9:55] To the podium. Um, as I mentioned, today we have
[9:59] two ceremonial presentations. The first one is exciting to me
[10:02] because we get to acknowledge the incredible work of one
[10:05] of our exceptional city staff. A member of our cities
[10:09] parks, forestry, and horticultural operations team has been recognised for
[10:15] excellence in arboro culture. Did I get that right, Shannon?
[10:19] Okay, good. It's the first time I've ever said that
[10:21] word out loud, which is very, very happy that I
[10:24] got it right. So forestry inspector, Cary, Stea Hanson. Has
[10:29] received the women in arboro culture, Ontario award of recognition
[10:34] presented by the International Society of Arboro culture, Ontario. Who
[10:39] knew I'd get to say it three times in the
[10:41] same segment. Uh, honouring her for her expertise and leadership
[10:45] in this field. The international society of our borough culture,
[10:49] Ontario, awards of distinction, celebrate individuals and organisations making significant
[10:54] contributions to our provinces, forestry sector. The women in arboro
[10:59] culture, Ontario highlights and advances the role of women in
[11:02] the field with its award of recognition on our ring
[11:06] those who support and encourage women entering and growing in
[11:09] the profession. Now we know that Vaughn is home to
[11:13] so many remarkable parks and wilderness areas. And it is
[11:16] truly vital for us, all of us, to be their
[11:19] biggest champion. This acknowledgement tells me that our city is
[11:23] on the right track. Through her role as a forestry
[11:26] inspector, Carrie Hashon, a deep dedication to protecting and enhancing
[11:31] bonds tree canopy, contributing to a greener, healthier, and more
[11:34] sustainable city for all of our residents. And this award.

[11:43] to advancing the arboro culture industry. Cary, please accept our
[11:48] warmest congratulations and thanks for your incredible work. Your passion
[11:53] that we know infuses your work is something that we
[11:57] think is truly remarkable and very special. And this is
[12:00] a well - deserved honour. Before I turn things over
[12:03] to Shannon, how about a big round of applause for
[12:06] Carrie. Okay Shannon, all yours. Thank you,
[12:16] Mayor Del Duca. Good afternoon members of council, staff and
[12:19] guests joining us today. It is a pleasure to recognise
[12:23] an outstanding member of our urban forestry team and individual
[12:26] whose impact actually extends beyond this organisation. The award of
[12:30] recognition from the international society of a bora culture, Ontario,
[12:34] in partnership with the women in a boraculture, Ontario committee
[12:37] celebrates individuals who have made meaningful contributions to urban forestry.
[12:42] This award is presented to an individual who demonstrates leadership
[12:46] in a strong commitment to supporting and encouraging women in
[12:49] the industry. We are incredibly proud of Cary Stia Hansen,
[12:53] a forestry inspector as this year's recipient. In her role,
[12:57] she plays a critical part in protecting and maintaining our
[13:00] urban forest, ensuring that development is balanced with preservation. And
[13:06] that our tree canopy continues to thrive for future generations.
[13:10] Cary brings with her two decades of experience. And after
[13:14] 16 years as a production arborist, she developed a strong
[13:18] technical expertise in a deep connection to the profession. Through
[13:23] her work as a tree climber, she has had the
[13:25] unique opportunity to see cities and communities from a different
[13:29] vantage point high up in the trees, shaping her perspective
[13:33] and appreciation for the landscapes she now helps protect. Cary
[13:38] is a member of the women in a borough culture,
[13:40] Ontario Committee and was the driving force in its early
[13:43] development. Her example has encouraged peers and emerging arborists alike
[13:51] to see themselves as leaders, as experts and essential contributors.
[13:56] She is also seen as a positive change in the
[13:58] industry and is proud to witness the study growth in
[14:01] the number of women entering the profession each year. Cary
[14:05] once again, thank you for your dedication, your leadership and
[14:08] the meaningful impact you continue to make each day.
[17:43] Okay. You can tell it's the last council meeting before
[17:47] the summer. Everyone's feeling giddy. Alright. As I mentioned earlier,
[17:54] we do have one more ceremonial presentation. It's also very
[17:57] exciting one. Can see lots of our great friends from
[18:00] Von Soccer here today. Uh, on behalf of the city
[18:03] of bond and members of council, I want to welcome
[18:06] the Vaughn outsoury U18 girls. I'm going to say girls
[18:10] eye model. Did I get that right. I'm looking, okay,
[18:13] I see that I see nodding heads. The girls I
[18:16] model team and the Vanaturi U17OPDL boys team. As well,
[18:22] of course, as their coaches, team staff, families, friends and
[18:26] supporters right here to there, to our Vaughn City Hall.
[18:29] Thank you so much for joining us today for this
[18:31] celebration. Now colleagues, these two teams have had a truly
[18:35] remarkable soccer season. First, I want to congratulate the bonoed
[18:40] sodium U18 girls. I model team for becoming 2007 girls,
[18:45] Ontario Cup champions, which I think is fantastic. How about
[18:48] a big round of applause. This team has had an
[18:54] unbelievable season. Not only did they win their league, but
[18:57] they went on to capture the milk up Ontario cup.
[19:01] This championship is not only the largest club competition in
[19:03] Canada. But also one of the oldest and most prestigious
[19:07] sporting events in the country. This is a truly special
[19:11] and remarkable achievement. And next, I'd also like to congratulate
[19:15] the von U17OPDL boys who had become the 2008 boys
[19:21] OPDL charity shield cup champions. Another big round of applause.
[19:29] Their season has been nothing short about standing. They captured
[19:31] the Gary Miller charity shield and claimed the championship of
[19:35] the OPDL premier division for the second consecutive year. The
[19:39] OPDL is the province's prestigious high performance youth league where
[19:43] the standards are high and the competition is fierce. I
[19:47] cannot emphasize enough how amazing these achievements are. To both
[19:52] teams, please know that your winds go beyond the trophies.
[19:55] You have demonstrated leadership. Sportsmanship and a commitment to excellence
[20:00] that I know and we know inspires everyone around you.
[20:03] From your teammates to your coaches to your families and
[20:06] to our broader community. Of course I do want to
[20:09] recognise the coaches, the team staff, the families, the friends
[20:12] of the players, because I know the entire ecosystem of
[20:16] support with the guidance and the encouragement played a huge
[20:21] part and the team's successes. Congratulations once again to our
[20:26] champions. We can't wait to see what you all accomplish
[20:29] next. I'd now like to turn things over to Ward
[20:32] I Councillor, Maryland and I Ayafrady to say a few
[20:35] words. Thank you again and congratulations. Thank you, Mr. Mayor.
[20:41] Um, I really am so proud of both these teams
[20:44] and I really want to share my warmest congratulations to
[20:49] both of you because you've all worked so hard and
[20:51] you've rose to the occasion when it mattered most, demonstrating
[20:55] skill, teamwork and a deep commitment to one another. You've
[20:59] set a benchmark for what it means to be a
[21:01] team and represented your club with pride and distinction, not
[21:06] just your club, but also the entire community. And I
[21:10] thank you for that. To the coaches and team staff,
[21:15] uh, you're dedicated leadership and guidance for players as immeasurable.
[21:21] For the family and friends, thank you for always being
[21:23] in the Players Corner. I had a few other comments
[21:28] that were shared with me that I thought, you know,
[21:31] I want to put out there. Like this was a
[21:33] remarkable. I'll start with the girls Ontario Cup champions. Um,
[21:38] this was an enormous, enormous win for the girls. And
[21:43] they've won so many championships, uh, you know, in the
[21:46] last year or two. And they, um, you know, they've,
[21:50] they've competed. So the, um, the final competition, which we
[21:55] are recognising them for, aside being the oldest sporting event
[21:58] in the country had over 12, 000 athletes and over
[22:04] 500 teams competing across 22 divisions. And this happens every
[22:09] year. So with the girls, thank you for being here.
[22:12] Thank you for showing off your medals. I always love
[22:14] seeing that. And I'd also like to thank the coaches,
[22:18] Marcello Capuzzolo and Gabe Leo and managers Mark Arduini and
[22:23] Jennifer Lavorato. I think I said that right, correct? And,
[22:28] uh, for the boys, the Gary Miller charity shield has,
[22:32] it's a charity event and, um, it's a signature event
[22:35] for the OPDL calendar. And it certainly demonstrates that player
[22:40] development extend beyond the pitch encouraging leadership empathy and a
[22:43] commitment to give back. And in having said that, that
[22:46] team donated the proceeds, uh, from Ontario soccer to sick
[22:51] kids. So thank you boys for the great work you've
[22:54] done there. And I also would like to thank head
[22:57] coach Luca Forno goalkeeper coach Dominic Gentile. Congratulations to both
[23:03] of you. And I really do look forward to seeing

[34:45] certainly support that. Does anyone else supposed to comment before
[34:50] I provide some very brief reform marks? Anyone else? No.
[34:52] Okay. Just so, I mean, it's, it's evident from, and

[34:57] we went through the earlier part of the agenda, the
[35:00] title for the members resolution is honouring and commemorating the
[35:02] victims of mass murder in Iran. I think everyone here
[35:05] knows that this year has been an exceedingly difficult time
[35:08] for the Iranian Canadian community, certainly here in our city,
[35:11] but also right across this country. And frankly, right around
[35:14] the world. And I'm very proud of the fact that
[35:17] in partnership with the community, we were one of the
[35:19] first city halls anywhere in this province to fly proudly.
[35:24] The lion and sun flag on what might have been
[35:25] the coldest night of the year, but there were still
[35:28] several hundred von residents. And York region residents who braved
[35:31] the weather and were here to very clearly make a
[35:35] statement about the importance of supporting their loved ones. Um,
[35:39] back home in Iran who are facing some of the
[35:41] most horrific conditions imaginable as the terrorist regime and control
[35:46] of that country now for nearly five decades was literally
[35:49] murdering innocent people in the streets, their own people in
[35:53] the streets, people who are simply looking to live a
[35:55] world in a world or in a country where freedom,
[36:00] equality, democracy, writes the things that we tend to take
[36:03] for granted here in Canada. Um, could we come part
[36:06] of their daily life back home in Iran. Colleagues will
[36:10] remember. We also hosted here on a Saturday many, many
[36:14] weeks ago a bit of a vigil, well not a
[36:16] bit of a vigil. A vigil to honour the tens
[36:19] of thousands who were slaughtered by the terrorist regime in
[36:22] Iran. I raised these things not to be excessively somber,
[36:25] but I raised them because I'm proud of the fact
[36:27] that here in Vaughn, we have not, we have not
[36:30] sat back as spectators while the Iranian Canadian community in
[36:34] our city has been suffering. And while it's being so
[36:37] difficult, we have demonstrated our commitment in our solidarity with
[36:41] the community and proudly. So then I believe this resolution
[36:45] is a natural extension. The natural next step and demonstrating,
[36:50] um, our solidarity and our desire and determination to stand
[36:55] shoulder to shoulder with the community that continues to suffer.
[36:58] Uh, these last number of months. And these last number
[37:00] of decades. So I am very proud to bring this
[37:03] forward. I'm chairing the meeting today. So I'm not going
[37:06] to move it. But perhaps our deputy mayor will officially
[37:09] move the resolution. And it can be seconded by Councillor
[37:12] Marto. I'm not sure if anyone else. Thank you. If
[37:15] anyone else has any comments or questions, but I just
[37:18] want to reiterate to our friends in the Iranian community
[37:21] here in the city of Vaughn and beyond the city.
[37:24] Please know through your suffering, through your good times, through
[37:27] your challenging times. You are not alone. We are proud
[37:30] to stand with you. And we always will. With that,
[37:34] I will call the question. Oh, sorry. Mr. Chair, on
[37:37] the recorded vote. Mr. Clerk, the deputy mayor has requested
[37:40] a recorded vote. Thank you everyone. Thank you, Mr. Mayor.
[37:48] We'll start with regional councillor ferry. Thank you. Uh, Councillor
[37:54] Volpentestair. Thank you. Uh, regional counsel Rosati. In favor. Thank
[38:03] you. Councillor Marto. Thank you, Councillor Ainsworth. Thank you. Councillor

[38:22] Motion passes unanimously. Thank you very much, Mr. Clark. And
[38:26] thank you to all of my colleagues for supporting this
[38:29] resolution and this initiative unanimously. Mr. Clerk, are there any
[38:33] staff information memos? There are none, Mr. Mayor. Thank you.
[38:38] Can I please get a motion that bylaw 165 -
[38:42] 206 be adopted as amended in accordance with communication C11
[38:48] that bylaws 158 - 2026 159 - 206 - 160
[38:54] - 2026 and 161 - 2026 be adopted as amended
[39:00] in accordance with communication C12 that the bylaw numbers 128
[39:05] - 206 and 129 - 2026 beaver moved from the
[39:10] June 23rd, 2026 council agenda and not adopted in accordance
[39:14] with communication C - 13 and that the remaining bylaws
[39:18] be adopted, including addendum bylaw 133 - 183 - 206.
[39:25] I didn't want to panic the clerk there. Can I
[39:27] get that move by Councillor Reinsworth. Second by deputy mayor
[39:31] Jackson, all in favor. That has carried. Can I get
[39:34] an emotion to adopt the confirming bylaw, moved by councillor?
[39:38] Iyefratey, seconded by councillor ferry, all in favor. That motion
[39:42] has carried. And now for the last time before the
[39:45] summer break, not really a break, but the summer, what
[39:47] do we call it? The summer recess hiatus, uh, can
[39:51] I please get a motion to adjourn. Shockingly from councillor
[39:55] of open testa, seconded by Councillor Marto, all in favor.
[40:00] Thank you very much. This council meeting is officially adjourned.
