UrbanPlanningCommittee

• 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.
