  Carried
• Amendment:
  Motion No. 2025-66-04
  Moved by S. Devine
  Seconded by L. Johnson

  WHEREAS the City of Ottawa is in both a climate crisis and a housing crisis; and

  WHEREAS addressing these concurrent crises requires urgency and creativity in policy making; and

  WHEREAS some developers have proposed Low-Impact Development (LID) as a way to more efficiently and environmentally-responsibly make use of land as per the City of Ottawa’s Official Plan; and

  WHEREAS the Province has directed municipalities to advance LID where feasible and when doing so is consistent with good planning practices; and

  WHEREAS some current City policies may limit the evidence-based benefits of certain LID systems, including the use of permeable pavement solutions as part of an overall stormwater management system, by limiting credit for these and other systems of infiltration from being used to downsize end-of-pipe stormwater management infrastructure; and

  WHEREAS it is possible for a better approach that recognizes fully the benefits of LIDs considering a full lifecycle assessment consistent with asset management policy; and

  WHEREAS being proactive in this respect could improve the roll out of LIDs and other environmentally responsible, pro-housing solutions.

  THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Mayor, on behalf of the Council, engage with the Premier of Ontario and the Minister of Environment, Conservation and Parks (MECP) to press for the Low Impact Development Stormwater Management Guidance Manual to be completed, which has been up for public consultation since January 27, 2022 to help inform a municipal approach to this issue; and

  BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that in absence of provincial guidance, staff develop technical guidance which enables LIDs such as permeable pavement and/or other LID features to be used in a development application in a manner that could enable the downsizing of end-of-pipe stormwater infrastructure subject to site conditions; and

  BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that as part of Recommendation 3o (review of the Development Application Study Policy) staff take a risk-based approach that allows staff to more quickly vet and accept, where possible, novel LIDs in future development applications; and

  BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that these objectives be added as a new action item into the Housing Acceleration Plan under Objective 1.a (e.g. “Facilitate the integration of innovative Low-Impact Development (LID) approaches in housing projects”), with a goal for medium-term implementation; and

  BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that staff return to Council with a memo on their progress on these items during Q2 of 2026.

  Seconded by L. Johnson

  WHEREAS the City of Ottawa’s current Site Plan Control By-law exempts residential buildings with 10 or fewer dwelling units from requiring a site plan application; and

  WHEREAS this exemption was designed to streamline approvals for small-scale development, but acts as a regulatory barrier to modest intensification projects that exceed 10 units, such as 12-unit, 3-storey buildings; and

  WHEREAS the current exemption threshold is misaligned with the scale of development envisioned in the New Zoning By-law and the objectives of the Housing Acceleration Plan, which seeks to accelerate approvals, unlock urban intensification, and support diverse housing forms; and

  WHEREAS Bill 23, the More Homes Built Faster Act, amended Section 41 of the Planning Act in 2022 to limit Site Plan Control Areas to residential developments that contain 11 or more dwelling units; and

  WHEREAS Section 4 of the City of Ottawa’s Site Plan Control By-Law (No. 2014-256) reflects the changes in the Planning Act and exempts Site Plan Control for residential developments that contain a maximum of 10 dwelling units; and

  WHEREAS Recommendation 3d, and corresponding Action #2 of the Housing Acceleration Plan, recommends that the City review options to extend exemptions currently in place for developments that contain a maximum of 10 residential dwelling units; and

  WHEREAS staff have assessed an immediate increase of the Site Plan Control exemption to 12 dwelling units could be accommodated through a building permit review with minimal risks.

  THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Site Plan Control By-Law (No. 2014-256) be amended to increase the exemption to a maximum of 12 residential dwelling units; and

  BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the wording of Recommendation 3d and Action #2 be amended accordingly.

  Moved by A. Troster
  Seconded by T. Tierney

  WHEREAS Recommendations 3a of Report ACS2025-SI-SPO-0002 was amended at joint committee by removing the recommended suspension of the Community Benefit Charge (CBC) By-Law and replacing it instead with a reduction in the applicable charge; and

  WHEREAS Recommendation 3b of Report ACS2025-SI-SPO-0002 proposed a refund of all fees collected under the CBC By-Law; and

  WHEREAS Recommendation 3b was also revised at joint committee to align with the reduction of the CBC By-law in lieu of the suspension and complete refund; and

  WHEREAS the development applications where CBC fees were collected have progressed beyond the approval and building permit phases; and

  WHEREAS the intent of the suspension was to incentivize new applications as well as the advancement of development applications subject to the CBC which had not yet advanced beyond the approval and building permit phases.

  THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that recommendation 3b be deleted to remove any return of funds collected to date under the Community Benefits Charge and replaced with the following:

  3b.    That staff:

  1. Report back to Council on a revised capital project list by the end of Q4 2025; and
  2. Be directed to provide information to Council in Q4 2026 assessing the efficacy of the CBC discounted rate, offering Council the opportunity to review or amend the policy and overall CBC strategy.

  WHEREAS Report ACS2025-SI-SPO-0002 was amended to include Recommendation 8, which provides direction for staff to develop a comprehensive downtown revitalization toolkit to enable a vibrant downtown economy; and

  WHEREAS all communities, including downtown, benefit from a diverse range of housing typologies, including three-bedroom units; and

  WHEREAS more of this diversity in both type and volume will help meet the needs of families who live, or whom want to remain or relocate to the downtown core; and

  WHEREAS according to City of Ottawa commissioned study in 2023, units with three or more bedrooms account for only 4% of purpose-built rental units constructed since 2000; and

  WHEREAS the same study indicated one of the key factors in limiting the market for three-bedroom units was cost compared to alternative options; and

  WHEREAS it is not possible to provide relief for development charges for three-bedroom units as there is no specific rate category for a three-bedroom unit and the applied rate is the current development charge rate for a 2+ unit inside the greenbelt of $31,071; and

  WHEREAS Action 26 of the Housing Acceleration Plan directs staff to undertake a comprehensive review of Development Charges.

  THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that, as part of Action 26: Undertake a Development Charge Structure Review, staff consider a new, discounted rate category for three-bedroom residential units in the urban core.

Notices of Motion (for Consideration at Subsequent Meeting)

23.1

Advocating for the Retention and Refinement of Automated Speed Enforcement (ASE) in School Zones

• Moved by T. Tierney
  Seconded by A. Hubley

  WHEREAS the Province of Ontario, has announced plans to introduce legislation in October 2025 to ban all municipal automated speed enforcement (ASE) cameras across the province, while committing to fund alternative traffic calming measures such as speed bumps and flashing lights in school zones;

  WHEREAS the City of Ottawa has operated a successful ASE pilot program since 2020, expanding to 60 cameras with 50 operating in school zones;

  WHEREAS data from the City's ASE program shows a significant increase in driver compliance with posted speed limits, rising from 16% before installation to 87% four years later, resulting in fewer speeding vehicles and safer conditions for children and pedestrians in school zones

  WHEREAS unlike some other Ontario municipalities, the City of Ottawa allocates all ASE program revenue beyond operating costs to the Road Safety Action Plan along with funding critical road safety measures such as intersection upgrades, enhanced signage, and other infrastructure improvements, without using any ASE funds toward the general city budget;

  WHEREAS speeding in school zones remains the number one complaint received by Ottawa councillors' offices, highlighting the ongoing need for targeted enforcement in school zones to prevent collisions and promote community safety and well-being, and a 2024 survey of Ottawa residents demonstrated that over 80% of those surveyed were supportive of automated speed enforcement cameras in school zones;

  WHEREAS a complete provincial ban would deactivate all the ASE cameras including in school zones, creating the risk that speeds in these areas would increase;

  WHEREAS the Province has continued to reiterate the importance of safe driving and reduced speeds, and has committed to funding traffic calming measures such as speed humps, flashing lights, roundabouts and other practical measures;

  THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that Ottawa City Council affirm the proven safety benefits of the ASE program and urge the Province of Ontario to permit the retention of ASE cameras exclusively in designated school zones if immediate removal of ASE cameras in non-school zones goes ahead;

  BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that, should the Province proceed with removing ASE cameras in school zones, Council request that municipalities be granted the opportunity to phase out the cameras over a 12-month period, ensuring a smooth transition and minimizing safety risks during the implementation of alternative measures;

  BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that Council request the Province provide equivalent funding as mitigation and that the City of Ottawa will commit to allocating all mitigation exclusively to the Road Safety Action Plan budget, ensuring continued investment in critical road safety initiatives such as intersection upgrades, enhanced signage, and other infrastructure improvements to protect vulnerable road users;

  BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the City Clerk forward this motion to Premier Doug Ford and Minister of Transportation Prabmeet Sarkaria,

  BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that once legislation is tabled that staff be directed to prepare a report in early Q1 2026 outlining the projected safety and financial impacts of the provincial ban in Ottawa, focusing on school zone data related to reductions in collisions and speeding attributable to ASE and the impact on the Road Safety Action Plan, and to prepare a plan to use alternative methods to ensure school zones/areas are protected using whatever measures are allowed.
