Motions (Requiring Suspension of the Rules of
Procedure)
MOTION NO. 10/22
Moved by Councillor D. Holmes
Seconded by Councillor M. McRae
That the Rules of Procedure
be waived to consider and approve the following:
WHEREAS Provision 25(l) of the
Private Approach By-law, states that, where a property abuts on or is within 46
metres of an arterial or major collector highway as designated in the City of
Ottawa Official Plan, the minimum distance between the private approach and the
nearest intersecting street line or its extension shall be 75 metres;
AND WHEREAS the existing private approach on Slater Street serving
180 Kent Street is located approximately 45 metres west of Kent Street, and the
proposed private approach shall be located approximately 30 metres west of Kent
Street;
AND WHEREAS the application has been circulated to City staff
through the Site Plan Control process as file D07-12-05-0162, and no technical
or safety concerns were expressed with respect to the private approach;
AND WHEREAS projected peak
hour vehicle volumes are 30 vehicles per hour with volumes substantially less
during all other hours of the day and thus the private approach is not expected
to compromise the operation of the adjacent Slater/Kent Street intersection;
AND WHEREAS Slater Street is a
one-way eastbound, and has sufficient distance from Lyon Street, thus making
the potential for inbound queues is negligible;
AND WHEREAS the 15 metre
easterly shift of the ramp will increase the offset from the adjacent bus stop
to the west thus improving sight lines for vehicles exiting the garage;
AND WHEREAS the primary
function of the private approach is to accommodate right-in/right-out movements
to the truck court and the secondary function is to serve as a an alternate
exit to the Laurier Street exit for outbound pass-holders during the afternoon
peak period;
BE IT THEREFORE RESOLVED that
Provision 25 (l) of the Private Approach By-law 2003-447 be waived to permit
the existing private approach on Slater Street serving 180 Kent Street to be
relocated approximately 30 metres from the Kent Street street line.

Moved by Councillor C. Leadman
Seconded by Councillor M. McRae
That the Rules of Procedure

directed that the 2 remaining City of Ottawa seats on the Congress Centre Board
of Directors be filled by “2 business leaders to be appointed through a public selection process”;

the Selection Panel would like to recommend the appointment of 1 business

CARRIED
Notices of Motion (For Consideration at Subsequent
Meeting)
MOTION
Seconded by
Councillor J. Harder
WHEREAS the existing MPAC tax
assessment system is unpredictable and volatile;
WHEREAS the changes in
property taxes due to MPAC assessments often dwarf changes in the city’s
budget;
WHEREAS the volatility of MPAC
assessments forces many people on fixed incomes to sell their homes because the
taxes they pay rise much faster than the rate of inflation;
WHEREAS the cost of running
the city and providing services is not being shared by all residents equitably
as a result of the provincially mandated assessment system;
WHEREAS the lifting of the
freeze on tax assessments will make the potential for zero tax increases
impossible to achieve real for a substantial portion of Ottawa;
WHEREAS the City of Ottawa
must pay MPAC over $10 million a year and their annual “fee” has been rising
beyond the rate of inflation even while assessments have been frozen.
WHEREAS the recent provincial
budget announced that "Residents will be assessed once every four
years. In the case that their
assessment rises, the increase will be spread over four years”;
WHEREAS the change announced
will not address fundamental inequities, volatility or fairness;
WHEREAS reduction in
assessment frequency does not come with an accompanying reduction in the cost
of MPAC;
WHEREAS the four year timing
of assessments will highlight problems closer to municipal elections and hence
make them less evident during provincial elections;
THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the City
of Ottawa ask Queens Park to reconsider the fundamental nature of the
assessment system and of MPAC’s legislated monopoly with an objective of
introducing assessment reform which is predictable, fair and empowers
municipalities rather than making them scapegoats.
MOTION
Moved by Councillor M. Wilkinson
Seconded by Councillor S. Desroches
WHEREAS there is an increasing
concern over the use of landfill sites situated in proximity to local
communities; and
WHEREAS one way to extend the
life of existing landfill sites while alternative ways of dealing with waste
are explored is to find ways to re-use items that might otherwise be discarded
in the garbage; and
WHEREAS the Kanata Beaverbrook
Community Association held a successful Give-Away Day in 2006 where residents
placed unwanted items at the curb for others to take; and
WHEREAS staff of the City of
Ottawa agree that holding a City-wide Give-Away Day would be both a useful way
to reduce waste going to landfill and a financial saving for the City of
Ottawa; and
WHEREAS a Give-Away Day only
requires information and publicity to be successful;
THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the City
of Ottawa support a City-wide Give-Away Day on June 23rd, 2007 with a rain date
of June 24, 2007 where residents can clear out their unwanted items while
benefiting others; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that
staff work with residents who have held successful Give-Away Days to develop
the necessary information and publicity for the event; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that staff provide an evaluation of this event with the objective of holding two Give-Away Days per year if the event is deemed successful.
