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.
