  • By Email January 15, 2021 Mayor
    By Email January 15, 2021 Mayor Jim Watson 110 Laurier Avenue West Ottawa, ON K1P 1J1 Dear Mayor Watson: Poorly Conceived Ward Boundary Change (uOttawa - Lees Campus) Affecting Capital Ward The Old Ottawa East Community Association respectfully requests that a change made during the course of the Ward Boundary Review be reversed before the by-law is proclaimed January 27, 2021. The change does not meet the City’s criteria required for a ward boundary change. Specifically, on December 9, 2020 City Council approved ward boundary changes that included the transfer of the University of Ottawa’s Lees Avenue campus from Capital Ward to Rideau-Vanier. This transfer was introduced by an unknown party near the end of the lengthy ward boundary consultation process but the Old Ottawa East Community Association and the Old Ottawa East community were not made aware of the change until after FEDCO had blessed it. Specifically, the “Recommendations Report” for Council recommended: “Move the Gee-Gees sports field from W6-19 (Capital) to W6-17 (Rideau-Vanier). The reasons given refer to a better boundary (the River rather than Highway 417) and the area’s association with sports facilities directly to the north in Rideau-Vanier. In the recommended ward boundary configuration, the Gee-Gees sports field is moved from W6-19 to W6-17. There are no residents in this area.” (p23) The report later says: “At Robinson Park and Gee Gees Field, #417 is not a big boundary; use the River instead.” (p34) …/2 - 2 - The fundamental criterion for making ward boundary changes is to “achieve voter parity." The transfer of the Lees campus will be detrimental to voter parity because Rideau-Vanier is forecast to grow faster than Capital.

Moreover, many mitigation measures have been directly incorporated into the recommended plan. This section describes the environmental benefits and potential environmental effects of the proposed project and mitigation measures for the effects that cannot be avoided.
