Zoning seems like such a dry subject, but it's one I hear from residents about a lot! If you ever have concerns about a new development in your neighbourhood, a new business opening, or issues like backyard parking, those are all Zoning By-law questions.

🧵 There’s been some attention on the City’s new “donation button”. It’s an idea we talked about last year and that we were supposed to get a report on before proceeding. Maybe I missed it...
But here we are. And I have thoughts.

It's Budget Day at City Hall, which means going through a LOT of presentations, meetings, and reading this giant binder. I'll be posting more about the investments we're getting in #CollegeWard and my thoughts about funding for transit, transportation, recreation, and more.

A most joyful and rich event celebrating the relationships that underpin the Ottawa Aboriginal Coalition and our local urban First Nations, Métis and Inuit communities. Susan Aglukark as the keynote speaker was mind blowing.
