Protocol Items

 

 

The Edmonton Civic Employees Charitable Assistance Fund
(K. Krushell)

 

 

 

Councillor K. Krushell, on behalf of City Council, recognized an incredible membership of civic employees, who make a difference in our city through their contributions to the Edmonton Civic Employees Charitable Assistance Fund.
It's membership is made up of more than 10,000 members from nine different unions and associations within Edmonton. Union members contribute one quarter of one percent of their salary to this fund.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Edmonton and Area Land Trust Emerald Award (K. Leibovici)

 

 

 

Councillor K. Leibovici, on behalf of City Council, recognized the Edmonton and Area Land Trust winning the prestigious award for a Not-for-profit Association. The award recognizes the high value this charity places on partnerships to accomplish joint goals. The strong commitment and hard work of the Edmonton and Area Land Trust volunteers and partners ensures that land is conserved for public and municipal good.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Recognition of Peter Ohm, Alberta's 50 Most Influential People
(S. Mandel)

 

 

 

Mayor Mandel, on behalf of City Council, congratulated Peter Ohm of Sustainable Development, for being named one of Alberta's 50 Most Influential People. He recently spearheaded a series of public consultation initiatives designed to get input from stakeholders on how they wanted the city to deal with issues of food security and local food. One result of this consultation process was the development of a strategy on food and urban agriculture that was adopted in November of 2012, which called for the establishment of a Food Council to advise City Administration.

COUNCILLOR INQUIRIES

3.1

River Valley Alliance - Priority Nodes (K. Leibovici)

 

 

 

It is my understanding that the River Valley Alliance has $15 million available to purchase land in the river valley.

Can Administration identify the priority nodes that are available for purchase and that have been identified by the River Valley Alliance as important to connectivity?

What steps has Administration taken with regards to providing the River Valley Alliance with a request to purchase lands, particularly with respect to the Woodbend/Big Island area?

3.2

Sidewalk Applications on Whyte Avenue
(B. Henderson/D. Iveson)

 

 

 

It is my understanding that there has been an approach made by a number of businesses along Whyte Avenue, with the support of the Old Strathcona Business Association, to use some parking spots to allow for facilitation of patio space, as anticipated in our new sidewalk patio policy.

It is also my understanding that although planners on the file are supportive, that Transportation has said no.
