- Parkland Dedication for Emergency Shelter - 2024-158.pdf
A request for Council to waive parkland dedication fees for the renovation and expansion of the Stepping Stone building at 23 Gordon Street, which would add about 24 emergency shelter beds and 12 transitional housing units. Waiving the fees in time would let the County of Wellington get a building permit and access capital funding by a March 28, 2024 deadline. Staff say the fee value can't be estimated.

4:42Well, that's unanimous.
4:43So that's great.
4:44Thank you very much.
4:45So we only have the one item for discussion, as I mentioned, which is the city of Hamilton resolution support for the decision of the Ontario energy board to end the gas pipeline subsidy.
4:57We have a few delegations that have signed up for this, but as is normal kind of process, Councillor Caron has pulled this item to have it added to the discussion for today.
5:09I think it would be appropriate for Councillor Caron, just a couple minutes sort of preamble just to kind of set the stage. If I could call it that just to understand what is being put forward.
