  • SPEAKING NOTES Mayor Jim Watson Budget 2019 Tabling Building a City with Better Roads, Housing, Transit and Safe Communities Wednesday, February 6, 2019 ********
    SPEAKING NOTES Mayor Jim Watson Budget 2019 Tabling Building a City with Better Roads, Housing, Transit and Safe Communities Wednesday, February 6, 2019 ******** Good morning everyone. Bonjour tout le monde. Today we are pleased to table the draft 2019 Budget for consideration and public input. The tabling of the Budget is the single most important discussion we have as a City each year. Page 1 of 54 C’est la discussion la plus importante que nous avons à chaque année. I had the pleasure of attending various ward consultations and I found that residents often have competing expectations regarding the City’s budget. However, they are also realistic about the City’s fiscal capacity – they know we have to set a limited number of priorities while living within our means. This year is particularly challenging given the compressed timeline resulting from the municipal election. Page 2 of 54 I am pleased to report that we are bringing forward a budget for 2019 that delivers on key commitments, namely: • reducing our infrastructure gap by boosting our spending on roads and sidewalks; • providing more affordable housing; and • making our communities safer and more resilient. Avec le budget 2019, nous investissons davantage dans nos routes et trottoirs et dans le logement abordable, et nous rendrons notre communauté plus sécuritaire. I want to start by sharing highlights of how Budget 2019 can help improve the lives of Ottawa residents. Page 3 of 54 Under Council’s direction, I believe we have assembled a spending plan for 2019 that balances key needs and priorities across our growing city.

    Options Report APPENDIX B Other Comments on Wards and Ward Boundaries July 2020 Get involved online or in person See how at ottawa.ca/wardboundary Ask us at [email protected] 1 Introduction Appendix B summarizes comments received as part of responses to the OWBR 2020’s questions on wards and ward boundaries. Geographic comments regarding ward boundaries and communities, and quantifiable comments regarding ward populations and number of wards have been incorporated into the design of the five options for re- aligning Ottawa’s wards. The comments below are organized as follows: A. Other Comments on Wards and Ward Boundaries – Online Survey, Public Meetings and Online Submissions · General (Urban Wards; Suburban Wards; Rural Wards); · Specific Wards (Urban; Suburban; Rural); · Number of Wards/Ward Populations; and · Governance. B. Other Comments on Wards and Ward Boundaries – Members of Council · General; · Urban Wards; · Suburban Wards; · Rural Wards; · Ward Populations; · Number of Wards; · Approach to OWBR 2020; and · Office Resources. The number in brackets at the end of some comments refers to the number of times the suggestion was mentioned. A. Other Comments on Wards and Ward Boundaries – Online Survey, Public Meetings and Online Submissions General · Three issues: 1. We have too many Councillors for the City of Ottawa with an average of 41,907/ward - compared to average population/ward in Vancouver of 63,000, Calgary of 87,000, Montreal of 90,000 and Toronto of 109,000. Yet our Councillors have similar compensation as these other cities. 2. The Urban (inside Greenbelt) Wards currently have 12 Councillors with Rural Councillors at 11.

    By Christopher Twardawa [email protected] To be presented to the Ontario Citizens’ Assembly on Electoral Reform January 2007 Version ONE-070.131 www.ctess.ca www.TwardawaModel.org Any opinion or view presented in the document is that of and only of the author, Christopher Twardawa, and may not necessarily reflect those of any organization he is or has been associated with. Reproduction of this document in whole or in part is permitted, provided the source (Christopher Twardawa and www.ctess.ca or www.TwardawaModel.org ) is fully acknowledged. © Christopher Twardawa, 2007 TwardawaModel.org CTESS.ca Sometimes the simplest solution is the best. Christopher Twardawa Electoral System Solution ii TwardawaModel.org CTESS.ca About CTESS The Christopher Twardawa Electoral System Solution (CTESS) is the creation of its author – Christopher Twardawa and is designed to provide a better electoral system than what Canada and its provinces now have. With the belief that the current system is good but requires improvements, CTESS strengthens it by identifying deficiencies and proposing innovations. Unlike any other electoral system currently in use and which all have tradeoffs, CTESS has no tradeoffs and therefore eliminates the need to change electoral systems as a whole. Christopher first started thinking about this after the 1993 Canadian federal elections, since the results of those elections appeared to him to be inconsistent with how the voters voted. Ten years later in 2003, while still in university, he came up with the current model (the Twardawa Model) which is a simple yet considerate and sophisticated model. It can be applied to any democratic state under the Westminster model of government and similar systems.

  • Your Views - Draft City Budget 2016
    Your Views - Draft City Budget 2016 The City of Ottawa is facing a $41 M deficit. This could mean cuts to important city services that we all depend upon, and others that address the needs of the most vulnerable in our community. The annual property tax increase has shrunk every year since 2011 (2.45% to 1.75%). This has meant a tighter budget each year amidst rising costs and financial pressures. An increase of 1% is $36 per year on the average property tax bill and would give the City $14 M in revenue. What investment are you prepared to make to ensure quality of life in our city? In the coming weeks, City Councillors are inviting input to inform the draft budget to be released November 12th. Contact the Mayor and your City Councillor or attend a budget consultation (see below) to let them know what you want to see in the draft budget. Potential message: I would like to make an informed choice as to choosing between services and tax increases. In the draft budget, I would like to see options as to what services would be cut or maintained with a 2%, 3% or 4% tax increase. Will you take steps to ensure this happens? For updates on City Council consultations, visit ottawa.ca: Saturday, September 19, 10 a.m to noon Nepean Sportsplex, Hall A, 1701 Woodroffe Avenue Councillors Rick Chiarelli (College Ward), Keith Egli (Knoxdale-Merivale Ward), Jan Harder (Barrhaven Ward) and Mark Taylor (Bay Ward) Saturday, September 26, 9:30 a.m to 12:30 p.m.

  • The Alliance to End Homelessness
    The Alliance to End Homelessness www.endhomelessnessottawa.ca PROVINCIAL ELECTION 2011 The Alliance to End Homelessness Statement on Local Candidates’ Responses to its Questionnaire The Alliance to End Homelessness as a non-partisan coalition with 70 organizations as members takes action to end homelessness. The statement is being released at Cornerstone Housing for Women, a shining example of supportive affordable housing that shows what can be accomplished with provincial funding combined with federal, municipal and personal donations directly from the community. In contrast, 110,585 households or 33.3% are renting in Ottawa and 26.9% – more than 86,000 of Ottawa households – have incomes under $40,000. The vast majority of these households are renters. Yet out of 70,078 housing starts in the city between 2000 and 2011, 94% were ownership and only 5.8% were rental units. The provincial government plays an essential role in Ottawa’s ability to address affordable housing and homelessness. Ontario recently signed the Investment in Affordable Housing (AIH) agreement, a four-year funding agreement with the federal government to continue investment in affordable housing in this province. The province agreed to spend $240.3M over the next four years which will be matched by the federal government for a total of $480.6M. Potentially, if the funds for new affordable housing are allocated by population, Ottawa could see over 4 years a total of about $33.6 M or 7% of the $480.6 million federal/provincial total available. It’s quite a contrast to the last agreement. Previously, the City of Ottawa was allocated $75.6M between 2005 and 2010 under the Affordable Housing Program (AHP) which created about 1,240 new units.
