Norberry Crescent Development Public Meeting
I have recently met with representatives of the Norberry Apartments, along with the RPCRA President and Vice President, about their expansion plans. I am hosting a public meeting for residents on Thursday, November 9 in the main sanctuary of the Riverside Churches, 3191 Riverside Drive. This will provide any interested residents the opportunity to learn more about the revised development plans for the site. The public meeting will begin with an open house at 7:00pm followed by a presentation and QandA session for residents 7:30pm.
The plan still calls for three separate apartment buildings to be constructed, however they are now slightly lower in height. The proposal will also incorporate a new reinforced parking garage structure for residents who wish to continue to use that facility.
If you are unable to make it to either of the public meetings and would like to meet with me separately, I am always available to meet with residents or community groups. If you would like any information on any of these files, please feel free to contact my office. I look forward to seeing you at the public meetings.

Heron Road separated cycling facilities (Data Centre Road to Bank Street) Functional Design Study
2017-11-27 18:30 - 20:30 (America/New_York) | Jim Durrell Arena, 1265 Walkley Road, Ottawa, ON, Canada
Although the project limits for this functional design study do not fall within River Ward, many residents may find the design of these new cycling facilities of interest, given their proximity.
Project P1-19 is listed in the 2013 Ottawa Cycling Plan as segregated cycling facilities in the Heron Road corridor between Data Centre Road and Alta Vista Drive, in support of a Cross-town Bikeway.
The City successfully applied for assistance from the Public Transit Infrastructure Fund (PTIF) to undertake the design of the facilities with 50% dollars coming from the federal government. This current project is identified as PTIF-41 and will take us to the detailed design stage. Design completion deadline is March 31/18 under PTIF requirements.
Funding to construct the facilities has not yet been identified/committed.
The city is planning a Public Open House on the functional design as follows:
Monday November 27/17
6:30pm – 8:30pm
Jim Durrell Rec Centre – Elwood Hall

Residents are invited and encouraged to attend and provide their feedback on this cycling infrastructure project.

Rooming House Licensing By-law Review Update & Consultation
2018-02-21 18:30 - 20:00 (America/New_York) | McNabb Community Centre, 180 Percy St, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada
In 2008, Schedule 26 to the Licensing By-law 2002-189 relating to rooming houses was harmonized to apply City-wide, and included definitions of “residential use building”, “rooming house”, “rooming house, converted”, “rooming house owner”, and “rooming unit”.
A couple of issues with respect to rooming house licensing were raised as part of the By-law Review Strategy approved by Council in 2015. This review therefore focuses on those issues, which include: the definition of rooming house, as well as the identification of illegal rooming houses.

~~~
En 2008, l’annexe 26 du Règlement harmonisé sur les permis (no 2002-189) concernant les maisons de chambres a été harmonisée pour s’appliquer à l’échelle de la ville. Elle définissait notamment les termes « bâtiment à utilisation résidentielle », « maison de chambres », « maison convertie en maison de chambres », « propriétaire d’une maison de chambres » et « chambre ».
Depuis, des questions ont été soulevées quant aux permis de maison de chambres dans le cadre de la Stratégie de révision des règlements municipaux approuvée par le Conseil en 2015. Cette révision porte donc surtout sur ces questions, comme la définition d’une maison de chambre et le repérage des maisons de chambres illégales.
