Good evening. This is Hone Sound City Council. Today's date is July 27, 2026. We are calling the meeting to order at 530. Council, are there any additional business items? Councillor Farmer. I'll have two items of additional business. One about Bandit Fest, which took place downtown, and one about the Poverty Task Force's Municipal Candidate Education Series in September. Council Merton. Through you, I have one item. It's a media release today on household food insecurity from the southwestern Ontario public health units, and their call to action. Anyone else? Seeing none that way. Seeing none that way, I will have one matter concerning Georgian College that I'll bring up in additional business. Declarations of interest. Nobody else. I have a declaration of interest by law 2026-098. It is item 21-J in the agenda. I declare a direct pecuniary interest and declare a disqualifying interest.

All right. Welcome, everyone. It's 5:30 p.m. and I'll call the meeting of July 23rd, 2026 for Operations Committee to order at this point. We've got everyone in attendance this evening on committee, absent Councillor Hamley, and we 're joined on the telephone with Councillor Merton this evening. Just before I go around the room, I'll just note I aired last meeting in speaking about the time constraints . Individuals may speak to a motion once it's on the floor. Just so everyone's comfort ed and relaxed in terms of being able to speak. It's 10 minutes in totality. In the moment, a councillor or an individual is speaking and I mentioned five minutes in total, but it was five minutes remaining of the 10. Any time you're speaking to an item, I just want you to know that you can be comforted and not race against the clock. Ten minutes is what's afforded. I'll just start with Graham and go around the room just if you want to place yourself in the room for member Anderson's benefit this evening and just turn your microphone on so he can audio yourself, orient you in the room appropriately, I guess. I'm Graham Jordan, public member. Michelle Hawkins, public member. Arlene Blue-Indo, public member. Scott Gregg, deputy mayor. Alita Schurter, public member. John Farmer, councillor. Don Anderson, public member. Mason Bellamy, manager of public works and engineering. Laura Woodifield, director of public works and engineering. Heidi Jenin, supervisor of environmental services.

Good evening, this is Owen Sound City Council. It's July 13th, 2026, 5.30. We are calling this meeting to order. As you all know, this is a City Council meeting where we conduct the business of the City of Owen Sound. And it's, to repeat, Deputy Mayor who sat in this chair for me a month or so ago, it's not a place for campaigning on the next election, or otherwise we will be sticking to business and proceeding . Calling for additional business. Is anyone, Councillor Kepke? Thank you, Morship. I have one item regarding the hottest street sale. Thank you. Anyone this way? Yep. Through the mayor. I was also going to speak to the hottest street sale, so if Councillor Kepke takes the words from my mouth, I might not. Good. Anyone else? Seeing no one else. Declarations of interest? Councillor Farmer? Through the mayor, I'll be declaring an interest to an item in the closed agenda. Is that sufficient information? Yep. Okay. I also, too, have a conflict of interest. Agenda item 11A. So that's the first item on the consent. It's a report to request to lease two parking spaces. I have acted for the applicant in my law practice, and therefore have a direct pecuniary interest, and I declare it as qualifying interest. Councillor Dodd, I thank you of the motions. Number four, confirmation of council minutes. Thank you, Worship. Moved by myself, seconded by Councillor Farmer, that the minutes of the following meetings be adopted as printed.

Good evening, everyone. This is Owensown City Council on June 15, 2026. I call the meeting to order. I'm going to step out of the usual procedure just for a second. I want to read a statement. In August of 2023, our community lost one of its members to a senseless act of violence. Sharif Rahman was a husband, father, friend, volunteer, and business owner. At the time of Sharif's death, the city issued a statement affirming our confidence in our police services that our police services would bring those involved to justice and our own commitment here at City Hall to working to increase safety and public confidence in the River District . We now know the outcome, the legal proceedings against the men involved. I want to thank all the police officers involved in the investigation from several different police forces, members of the public who helped, and the justice system that brought us to this point. I also especially want to thank our community for all the ways that you came together to support Sharif's family and one another. In the wake of Sharif's death, there was uncertainty around the circumstances of his assault. In our efforts to respond to community fears and the unknown, there was an amplifying of stereotypes and assumptions. In our commitment to public safety, we drew a connection between this incident, crime prevention, homelessness, and addictions, and that was a mistake. It is clear that the early narratives that connected his death to homelessness and substance …
