  • The week at City Hall kicks off this morning with a Community and Public Services Committee meeting at 9:30 am to discuss a proposed bylaw about fireworks, a report on free admission to City recreation centres for youth drop-in activities, and a proposed sidewalk maintenance framework, amongst other things
  • Tuesday, the Agenda Review Committee meets at 9:00 am, followed by an Urban Planning Committee meeting at 9:30 am. The Urban Planning Committee will discuss 102 Ave LRT Pedestrian Crossing Recommendations. The City is considering closing 102 Avenue to cars between 99 Street and 100 Street. City Administration recommends piloting the closure before fully committing. The Committee will also discuss River Valley Planning Modernization, as planning for most of the lands in the area is more than 30 years old. There seems to be no mention of how establishing an urban national park would factor in.
  • On Wednesday, at 9:30 am, there will be an Executive Committee meeting to discuss a confidential settlement related to the 50th Street Grade Separation Project. The Committee will also discuss possible amendments to the retroactive municipal tax relief policy, such as increasing the amount of relief from $1,000 to $5,000 when the City has made a substantial error or the property is rendered uninhabitable. Administration will also present a report on municipal tax relief, not related to the aforementioned bylaw, in which they recommend no relief for property owners.

  • On Monday at 9:30 am, there will be a Community and Public Services Committee meeting. The Committee will receive a report about the decriminalization of personal drug use. The report is a response to an earlier inquiry by Councillor Janz about following in the City of Toronto’s footsteps and implementing an exemption to the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act. The Committee will also receive an update on the Problem Properties Initiative as well as discussing semi-annual speed limit updates, amongst other items.
  • Tuesday will begin with an Agenda Review Committee meeting at 9:00 am, followed by an Urban Planning Committee meeting at 9:30 am to discuss traffic safety in Glenora amongst other issues.

  • With it being Easter weekend, City Hall will conclude business on Wednesday with an Executive Committee meeting from 9:30 am to 5:00 pm. The Committee will receive a report on the upcoming rehabilitation of the High Level Bridge and several reports about making Edmonton more business-friendly, something we could get behind depending on how exactly the City plans to do this. Finally, at 5:30 pm, there will be a Non-Regular Meeting of City Council to discuss several annual reports and work plans for the year.
