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. -

Transit Service During Confederation Line Construction – Updates for 2016 REPORT TRANSIT SERVICES DEPARTMENT REPORT FAQs REPORT Transit Service During Confederation Line Construction – Updates for 2016 TITLE DIVISION: Customer Systems and Planning BRANCH Service Planning REPORT Pat Scrimgeour, Assistant General Manager, Customer Date: January 26, 2016 AUTHOR Systems and Planning SCHEDULED DATES FOR REPORT GM’s REVIEW OF REPORT TRANSIT COMMISSION COUNCIL January 19, 2016 February 17, 2016 N/A Q1. How long will the Confederation Line construction service adjustments last for? What are the next phases for service adjustments? A1. The O-Train Confederation Line is scheduled to open in 2018. Service adjustments will take place in sequential phases as sections of the Transitway undergo construction work. Each section of Transitway that closes for conversion to light rail will never reopen for bus operations. The remaining Transitway closures are: • April 2016 – Laurier Station to Lees Station; and • June 2016 – Tunney's Pasture Station to Merton Street. Timelines will be updated as information becomes available. Service adjustment plans will be implemented as these closures take effect. Stations will remain open during the construction period, with the exceptions of Cyrville Station, which was closed in June 2015, and Campus Station, which will close in April 2016. Q2. What are the main highlights of upcoming transit service adjustments during Confederation Line Construction? A2. The following are the main highlights of upcoming transit service adjustments during O- Train Confederation Line Construction: • On April 24, 2016, the Transitway will close between Laurier Station and Lees Station. Most transit service along this section of the Transitway will be relocated to Nicholas Street and Highway 417, using the bus-only lanes that have been built for this purpose. -
