City Council today deferred filling the Councillor vacancy in Cumberland Ward. While the Municipal Act requires Council to decide by Sunday, May 24 to appoint a replacement or pass a by-law to hold a by-election, staff believe the provincial state of emergency due to COVID-19 allows Council to defer the decision until the emergency ends. Staff will bring a report back to Council no later than 30 days after the provincial emergency order is lifted.

The City continues to focus on the emergency response to COVID-19. Council received an update on the City’s plans to sustain, recover and rebuild services. The City has created five teams that will focus on staff, finances, services, economic recovery and human needs. To address the financial impact of COVID-19, staff are seeking funding from other levels of government and closed capital projects, while also reviewing planned capital spending in 2020.

A three-story, eight-unit low-rise apartment could soon be built at 25 Grant Street in Hintonburg. Council approved a zoning amendment that doubles the four-unit density of the property, which is currently occupied by a detached home.

Council approved a motion to continue to encourage residents to cheer for essential workers on Wednesdays from 6:30 pm to 6:45pm until the end of June.
