2018 Cathodic Protection Program
In May of 2018, Water Services will begin preventive maintenance on metallic water mains as part of its annual Cathodic Protection Program. The program extends the life of a community’s metallic water main by attaching magnesium rods to the water main in the City’s right of way. These rods provide corrosion protection to the water main.
COUNCILLOR’S COLUMN 3
COUNCILLOR’S COLUMN APRIL 6, 2018
Impacts to residents are typically minimal. There will be noise associated with the excavation, which is done by hydro-excavation. The installation process takes minutes and the resulting 30 cm (1 foot) diameter holes are refilled the same day. There will be no impact to water quality or pressure, as all work takes place on the outside of the water main. Traffic and pedestrian impacts will be minimal.
This work is scheduled from May to early August, and will occur between 7:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. to minimize noise-related disruption. Clean Water Works has a service contract to complete the work, and will be overseen by City staff.
Additional program information along with a list of all impacted streets can be found at ottawa.ca/cathodicprotection.

I am proud that this is my seventh year participating in a hair donation campaign in support of various cancer research organizations including CHEO and the Ottawa Hospital Foundation and my fifth with Hair Donation Ottawa.

I would like to invite residents to share their generosity with this excellent campaign by sponsoring my hair donation at https://cheofoundation.donordrive.com/participant/ShadQadri.

For the month of April, the Ottawa Police Service and Gatineau Police Service’s Selective Traffic Enforcement Program (S.T.E.P.) will be paying close attention to school zone safety and cycling safety.
839 traffic collisions and 136 injuries occurred between 2012 and 2016 in school zones or involving school busses.
Likewise, there have been 1497 collisions involving cyclists. These collisions resulted in 1227 injuries and 12 fatalities.
The Selective Traffic Enforcement Program helps to raise awareness of easily preventable traffic violations to help to keep our roads safe.
It operates in coordination with the Safer Roads Ottawa Program, a partnership between Ottawa Fire Services, Ottawa Paramedic Service, Ottawa Police Service, Ottawa Public Health and the Transportation Services Department, committed to preventing or eliminating road deaths and serious injuries for all people in the City of Ottawa, through culture change, community engagement, and development of a sustainable safe transportation environment.

This week at FEDCO - Strategy to strengthen Ottawa’s music industry approved by Committee
This week, the City’s Finance and Economic Development Committee (FEDCO) approved a three-year strategy to strengthen Ottawa’s music industry and establish Ottawa as a global music city.
Developed in partnership with the Ottawa Music Industry Coalition, the Ottawa Music Strategy would make more City-owned spaces available for music, promote safer spaces for music and integrate music in strategies for economic development and tourism.
The Committee also received its monthly update on the construction of the O-Train Confederation Line light rail transit system. Significant progress has been made, including completing the concrete lining in the tunnel, and 32 of the 34 train vehicles are now in assembly. The installation of one-of-a-kind public art has begun at some of the 13 stations, and streetscape work will soon start on Queen and Lyon streets. Train testing continues between
COUNCILLOR’S COLUMN 18
COUNCILLOR’S COLUMN APRIL 6, 2018
Blair and uOttawa stations. Testing of the train in the western section of the system, from Tunney’s Pasture to the West Portal, is anticipated to begin this spring.
The Committee received a number of annual reports, including the 2018 Municipal Accessibility Plan, which outlines how the City removes barriers and advances accessibility. The City works to ensure accessible parking is available to those who have accessible parking permits. In 2017, 1,148 tickets were issued for illegally parking in a space reserved for people with disabilities. The City also purchased several tools to make public events more accessible, including a portable sound system and a temporary ramp.
According to the 2017 report on the Municipal Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act, the City completed 766 requests for general records and personal information.
The 2017 report on French Language Services highlights the City’s work to improve services and programs offered in French. The City resolved all 47 of the French-language complaints received in 2017. Thanks to improved planning to meet the needs of Francophones, the City saw increases in registration for French art programs and summer camps. The City now offers approximately 26 per cent more sports and recreational programs than it did in 2010.
The Committee approved plans to establish the 2018-2022 Election Compliance Audit Committee, which would review requests for audits of municipal candidates’ campaign finances. Following recent changes to provincial legislation, this committee would also review requests for audits of campaign contributions and registered third parties for compliance with campaign fundraising rules.
Items approved at this week’s Finance and Economic Development Committee meeting will be considered by City Council on Wednesday, April 11.

CRA scams
I would like to remind residents to be cautious this tax season of potential scammers emailing or phoning residents claiming to be with the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA), Canada Post, or other personal/financial related matters. Suspected scams involving identity theft are no laughing matter and should be taken seriously. The Ottawa Police has a web page dedicated to how to respond to common scams including an item focused on people pretending to be from the Canada Revenue Agency as well as where to report incidences. Here is what they say:
“Over the years, the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) has noted an increase in tax related scams. Recent victims have said they have received calls or text messages from someone claiming to be from the Ottawa Police or calling on behalf of the CRA and recent calls have involved threatening or aggressive and forceful language to scare them into paying a fictitious debt. Sometimes callers have even been reported saying there is a warrant for your arrest by police. Beware–these calls are fraudulent and could result in identity and financial theft. More information on common CRA scams. If you’ve been a victim of this type of Fraud, report it to the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre at 1-888-495-8501. If you want to confirm the authenticity of a CRA telephone number, call the CRA directly at 1-800-959-8281.”
Please remember that any persons from the CRA who wish to contact you will do so in an identifiable and notable manner. For the full web page with other potential scams, please click here.
