  • Byward Market Annual Report
    ByWard Market Annual 2017 Report Introduction: Administration & Financial ByWard Market BIA Mandate To support and promote the health and vitality of the ByWard Market as a unique business district and meeting place for residents as well as visitors. The ByWard Market is characterized by a wide variety of owner-operated businesses and a farmers’ market that make the Market rich in heritage, activity and animation. Financial Breakdown Revenues & Expenses Property Taxes vs Levies Commercial properties in the ByWard Market BIA pay millions of dollars in property taxes annually to the City of Ottawa. Property taxes DO NOT fund the BIA. 100% of property taxes go directly to the City of Ottawa paying for many City services such as: emergency services (police, fire, ambulance), road maintenance, snow removal, water service and sewers, City parks, and facilities etc… In contrast, the BIA is primarily funded through the BIA levy collected from commercial property owners. It is very important to note that the ByWard Market BIA has one of the lowest levies of all of Ottawa’s urban BIAs. This commitment to keep the levy cost minimal for business members means BIA staff need to find alternative sources of revenue to supplement the overall budget. These include sponsorships, grants, sales, and partnerships. In 2017, the ByWard Market BIA supplemented 35% of the overall operating budget through other sources of revenue (sponsorships, sales, and grants). The Board has always been committed to responsible fiscal management. Even though we are one of the busiest BIAs in the City, the ByWard Market BIA levy remains one of the lowest in the downtown core.

    Pathway Network for Canada’s Capital Region 2006 Strategic Plan PLANI-CITÉ i June 2006 Pathway Network for Canada’s Capital Region 2006 Strategic Plan THE VISION The National Capital Commission (NCC) and its partners propose the following as a framework for the planning and development of the Capital Pathway network for the next 10 years: Multi-purpose use The Capital Pathway network covers Canada’s Capital Region in its entirety. It is a multi-purpose recreational and tourist network, which also supports non-motorized commuting vocations. Accessibility and safety The network extends to and links natural and built areas. Through its layout and design standards, the network encourages a quality user experience and accessibility, emphasizing the recognition of the “Green Capital”, and highlighting symbolic points of interest within the Capital. The network provides access to waterways, green spaces, cultural and heritage features while supporting the protection of natural areas and offering a wide range of easily accessible services. User education and awareness programs targeting pathway sharing in a respectful and tolerant manner result in a safe and pleasant experience. Connectivity The network, through its linkage with local cycling routes and regional/national trails, is connected to other non-motorized transportation networks within the region to encourage sustainable transportation and forms a key component of Canada’s Capital recreational and cycling experience. Recognition The network, as a result of its multi use vocation, its extensive and far reaching system of pathways and connection with regional, provincial and national trails and pathways within and outside Canada’s Capital Region as well as the quality of the experience is regarded as one of North America’s best.

As a result of its work, PPS has concluded that the public market (farmer’s market) located in the core of the ByWard Market is at risk of being lost if significant changes are not made. The public market is in jeopardy with several interconnected components contributing to this situation. Such as: ‐ Bars, night clubs and restaurants dominate the ByWard Market and have come to define the district more than the public market; ‐ Night life behaviour affects the public market with outdoor vendors reporting in the morning that their stalls are often littered; ‐ Resident’s needs are losing ground over tourist’s needs and, ‐ Loss of local and fresh food producers. While historic buildings are being preserved in the area, traditional market uses, e.g.

This dissertation is dedicated to my parents Tom and Katherine Davidson. Abstract In this ethnographic study of the dynamic lives of a population of monuments in Ottawa, I argue that long after they have been unveiled, monuments are imbued with many capacities to act. Monuments inspire loathing or affection, and settle or disturb dominant understandings of place, nation, race, and gender. I suggest that monuments have these affective capabilities because they operate like ‘stone bodies’ in their urban environments. Additionally, spirited with a certain life-force, monuments have the ability to haunt, unsettling relationships between place, memory, and belonging. These affective charges of monuments are felt and expressed through articulations of imperial and colonial nostalgia, feminist and other activist mobilities and various articulations of patriotism.
