Councillor Stéphane Émard-Chabot
Bruyère/Strathcona
[WARD OT5]

Stéphane Émard-Chabot represents Bruyère-Strathcona Ward, which is comprised of Sandy Hill, Lowertown and the ByWard Market. Elected in November 1994, his goal is to maintain a vital, vibrant community in the downtown, where he has lived all his life.

A graduate of the University of Ottawa (B.Com. '87 and LL.B '91) and a member of the Ontario Bar, he has worked as a sessional lecturer in law at La Cité Collégiale, Ottawa's francophone college. In the community, he has volunteered his time with his local community association, Action Sandy Hill, serving two years as president. He also participated in the RMOC's Environmental Assessment Study to look at the feasibility of constructing new transportation links from the suburbs to downtown, and the Central Area Views/Density Transfer Study.

Stéphane currently sits on the Community Services and Operations Committee and the Planning and Economic Development Committee and chairs the Licence Committee. He is Council's representative on the French Language Services Committee and the Local Architectural Conservation Advisory Committee, as well as serving on the Central Canada Exhibition Association, the City of Ottawa Superannuation Fund, the Ottawa Arts Centre Foundation, Rideau Street Youth Enterprises, the ByWard Market Business Improvement Association, the Rideau Street Business Improvement Area, Uptown Rideau and the City Living Board of Directors.

Stéphane's priorities for the 1994-97 term of Council include building safer communities (by coordinating various crime preventation projects, ensuring follow-up on the prostitution task force recommendations and by revitalising the area's commercial main streets). Traffic planning is essential in order to maintain livable neighbourhoods downtown and monitoring the Sandy Hill Traffic Calming Plan will be an important aspect of Stéphane's mandate. He looks to improve standards for rooming houses throughout the City and also supports and promotes heritage preservation and culture. The protection of our environment by encouraging, for example, alternate modes of transportation, is also a key to inner city residents' quality of life.
