Thank you. the item itself, but just whether or not to consider it and during today's considerations on the agenda. So this comes from Councillor Loughton, so I'm gonna ask Councillor Loughton first to move that this item be read to the agenda for today as what would be an item G-5 and then I will look for a seconder. Would you like to move that Councillor Loughton? Yes, please. Very good, thank you for turning on your green light. Is there a seconder for adding it? Thanks Councillor Thompson. So Councillor Loughton, just very briefly please just tell us why this requires attention today not on the contents or the merits of the motion but Justin White should be considered today. Thank you, good morning and through you Mayor. The reason it's here today is because this is our last Council meeting until September so we're not meeting again for five weeks and I believe that the extremity of this situation and the impact it has on our residents merits it to be considered before we recess for August. Thank you very much. Councillor Thompson, you seconded this? Do you have anything to add on the merits of adding today? Briefly at my regular monthly meetings with service providers and folks who work on the 900 block it seems like the metatomidine crisis is quickly evolving and so I think quick action is warranted. Thank you very much for that. It would be unusual for us to debate the addition and so unless anyone has something anxious to say I'm gonna put the question and so remember …

time meeting. Today we have for our consideration one item of unfinished business, reports from the July 23rd and this morning's Committee of the Whole. Could I have some order please? Five bylaws for preliminary readings and final adoption and a couple of closed items of business. But of course before we begin our work together we always like to take a few moments to ground ourselves and our work and someone suggest our very existence and here in the city of Victoria on the wonderful and continuing generosity of the two nations on whose territories our city sits in its entirety, the Sankis Nation and the Kosapsum Nation, of the Lekwungen people who have for so many generations, centuries, taken the time to be great stewards of these lands and waters that surround them. We occasionally have remarkable opportunities to join with them to help support their members and all of the community both on the nation's current lands as well as the lands that they traditionally and currently have title to. And that is a chance yesterday as we did to join them in an elders' lunch where Songhees hosted, and Kosapsum hosted, many elders, hundreds of them actually who were visiting from around Vancouver Island who were feted for a very delicious luncheon yesterday at the Songhe es Wellness Centre. A number of our staff volunteered their time to join in as servers and bottle washers and bussers and just folks who were there to show support in a very practical and very meaningful way. When we h …

However, city staff became aware of an administrative problem with the hearing documents and so to ensure that our legislative procedures for providing official public notices are met and to ensure procedural fairness and transparency, the public hearing that we had previously scheduled for this evening has been postponed and will be placed on the agenda of our regular meeting on September the 10th. So if you're here for that public meeting, you are of course most welcome to stay because you are going to hear some spectacular performances and also have an opportunity to listen to your neighbors. But if that is the only reason you are here, then this would be the time for you to depart. So we will begin our evening as we always do with a territorial acknowledgement because of course every time we get together and we want to sit and work together, we start by taking a moment to ground ourselves and to reflect just briefly on the extraordinary p …

And welcome to the Thursday, July 23rd meeting of Victoria City Council's Committee of the Whole. Today we have for our consideration a presentation from and a conversation with our Police Chief. We have two staff reports and one Council Member Motion. But of course, before we begin our work together, we always like to take a moment to ground ourselves in the recognition and expression of gratitude to the two nations on whose territories our city sits in its entirety. Those would be, of course, the nations of the Lekwungen people, the Songhees Nation and the Khoasapsam Nation. They have for so many decades, so many generations, taken the time and thoughtfulness and commitment to steward these lands and the waters that surround them in a way which has reflected their history, the many, many thousands of years of their history, but also the challenges that their people have faced and those who have come after have faced. We continue to treasure and value the fact that they are so generous in their time with us currently, and that they continue to believe that the relationships that we have forged so far are valuable to all of us, and the richness of those relationships continue to be nurtured by all of those of us who have the opportunity to work together. We always want to say thank you and also to express that in the simplest of terms in the language of the Lekwungen people, which most people now know is Haichika Siem Nikwilya, to say thank you, and I express my honour and re …

And welcome to the July 23rd Victoria City Council Daytime Council meeting. Today we have for our consideration one report from a committee of the whole, two bylaws for preliminary readings, and one item of closed business. But of course, before we begin our work together, we always like to take a moment to take a breath and to ground ourselves in a recognition of the remarkable relationship and generosity of the First Nations on whose territories our city sits in its entirety. Of course, those are the Lekwangan people of the Saanich, or Saanich, good Lord. I was thinking at a different end. Of the Songhees people, the Songhees Nation, and the Kosaps um Nation. It has been a long day already. My apologies. The two nations whose territories we currently occupy have been stewarded for so many generations. And the outcome, the result of those stewardships have been so clearly evident to us in every day that we have the opportunity and privilege to do our work and live our lives here on these lands and sometimes on the waters that surround them. We have had many opportunities to create a very rich relationship with both nations, and those opportunities continue remarkably well and frequently due to their generosity. We will have another opportunity very soon, next week, as we help to sponsor and support and volunteer at a very special opportunity for there to be an elders' luncheon at Songhees next Wednesday, where elders from around the island actually will join together and be …

Victoria City Council's Committee of the Whole. We are in a complete compliment this morning. Councillor Thompson is joining us online. This morning at Committee of the Whole, we have for our consideration an extensive update on our community safety and well-being plan, and that is the only item that we'll be considering at committee today. But of course, before we begin, we always like to take a moment to ground ourselves and to situate the work that we're going to do and consider and anticipate and an understanding and an expression of our gratitude to the two nations on whose territories our city sits in its entirety. Those, of course, are the Lekwungen people of the Songhees Nation and the Kossapsum Nation. They continue to be generous in their willingness to work with us and to learn and teach with us as we mutually try to make the best decisions that we can in the interests of all of the people who live here in the city of Victoria. And we always want to take an opportunity to thank them for their understanding and patience and the incredible stewardship that they have undertaken for so many generations to ensure that the lands that we live on and work on and the waters that surround them continue to be places that we can all enjoy and that enrich our lives, however we choose to interact with them. I will just note an expression of shared condolence to the Songhees Nation for another death in their family, the details of that which will be forthcoming at their discretio …

Today we have for our consideration a report from one Committee of the Whole, one bylaw for adoption consideration, and several closed items. I will note that we are a full complement today. Councillor Thompson is joining us online. And so before we begin our brief agenda, of course we always begin our work together when we gather here at City Hall, and anywhere actually in the city, by taking a few moments to acknowledge and express our gratitude and appreciation for the two nations on whose territories our city sits in its entirety, the Lekwungen people of the Songhees Nation and the Kosaps un Nation. We constantly marvel at their ongoing generosity in continuing to work with us and provide their leadership, mentoring, and teaching as we work together on so many different issues and challenges that face all of our residents. We celebrate the fact that we have a very rich relationship with both nations, and that is very much due to the collaborative nature of the work that we've done together over the years, and also of the sometimes very personal relationships that we have with a number of members, leaders and members, and throughout their community and ours. It continues to be a marvel as we look at our colleagues in other jurisdictions at how complex and resilient is our relationship with the nations, and how much value that brings to the decisions that we try to make every day, reflecting, I hope, on all that has happened before in the past, all the challenges that we fa …

And welcome to the July 9th meeting of Victoria City Council. Our work today includes four sets of minutes, reports from one committee of the whole, two bylaws, one item of new business, and a couple of closed items. But of course, before we begin, we always take a moment to ground ourselves in our work and remind ourselves of how important it is for us to take a moment to express our gratitude to the two nations on whose territories our city sits in its entirety, the Lekwungen nations of the Sanghis and the Kosapsam. We enjoy a very rich relationship with both nations, partly because of the effort that we have put in to do so, to create and nurture that relationship over the last dozen or more years, but also because of the generosity of the two nations in being willing to work with us and help us learn together and plan and deliver different programs, projects, services, ideas, and visions for all of the people who live in our city. When we think back to the accomplishments that we have created together with the two nations, they are many. And oftentimes when we begin to reflect on the years of a term, we think of all of those different accomplishments, of the challenges that created them, and of the remarkable relationships that allowed them to be resolved and continued. And we will do so in the coming months. But for today, we will simply express our thanks, as we always do in their language, to say, which is to say thank you, but also to offer our respect and our acknowl …

Good morning everyone and welcome to the Thursday July 9th meeting of Victoria City Council's Committee of the Whole. We are a full complement in person today which is nice to see. Today we have for our consideration two sets of minutes, two land use matters, one staff report and one council member motion. But of course before we begin our work together we always like to take a moment to reflect and ground ourselves in the reality of the privilege that we share to be here in these spaces and to do the work that we do and to live our lives on the territories of the Lekwungen people, the Songhees Nation and the Kossapsum Nation who have for so many generations taken the time and taken the responsibility so very seriously to be stewards of these lands and the waters that surround them. The two nations continue to do that work and we're very privileged to be able to be partners with them and some and sometimes all of that work and we want to ensure that every opportunity that we have to express our thanks to them and to acknowledge their work that we take. And also to note that as we continue our conversations with the two nations about so many different programs and projects and visions and possibilities that we do so with a very keen sense of gratitude and collegiality and an understanding that relationships at all points require nurturing and sustaining and that there is work to be done on the power part of every participant in that relationship. And so it's important for us a …

or rather begin our daytime council meeting and see how much we can encounter before our lunch break. Welcome to today's July 2nd daytime Victoria City Council meeting. I believe that we will be shortly joined by Councillor Kim and so when that happens we will all be here in one body. Today we have for our consideration at council two sets of minutes, reports from one earlier committee of the whole, one bylaw and a brief closed item. But before we begin our work together we always begin taking a moment to ground ourselves in a recognition and acknowledgement of the lands and waters that surround these lands on this wonderful island, the south end of the island that we all live and that we attribute of course much of that opportunity to the generations of stewardship afforded to the lands and waters by the Lekwungen people of the Songhees Nation and the Kusapsam Nation. We continue to enjoy a remarkable relationship with both nations and we always know that it's important for us to acknowledge that and to also acknowledge the importance of nurturing that relationship and ensuring that it is solid enough that when times are good it is easy and it is family and when times are more challenging it is still family and it allows us to move through those challenges with a reciprocal understanding of the needs that we all need to achieve for all of our residents. We have had a wonderful opportunity yesterday to join with the nations to celebrate Canada today on July 1st and it was gre …

Committee of the Whole

Le Conseil examinera une motion demandant la fermeture du site de consommation sécurisée Harbour

Le Comité plénier discutera d'une motion d'un conseiller demandant au maire d'écrire à Island Health et au ministre de la Santé pour cesser les opérations du site de consommation sécurisée The Harbour. Également à l'ordre du jour : une mise à jour du programme pilote d'exonération fiscale pour la revitalisation des logements locatifs du marché avec des ajustements recommandés, et des directives sur les augmentations des frais de permis de terrasse après un gel de deux ans. Un permis de dérogation au développement pour l'enseigne au 933 Douglas Street est recommandé pour approbation.

✓ Décisions: Victoria council defeats motion to ask Island Health to close 'The Harbour' safe consumption site

Victoria's Committee of the Whole voted 1 to 7 to defeat a motion from Councillor Gardiner that would have asked the Mayor to request Island Health cease operations at 'The Harbour' safe consumption site and ask the provincial health minister not to renew its federal exemption. Council unanimously approved directing staff to bring back amendments to the Market Rental Building Revitalization Tax Exemption Bylaw, raising the GHG emissions stream to five rental buildings and removing the six-storey height limit. Council also unanimously directed staff to bring forward Patio Regulation Bylaw amendments keeping the 2027 base rate at 2026 levels plus a CPI increase. A development variance permit for 933 Douglas Street allowing larger signs was approved unanimously on the consent agenda.

July 2nd. Councillor Kim is joining us online briefly and then will be joining us a little later this morning in person, so we do have a full complement this morning. We have for our consideration at committee today two sets of minutes, one land use matter, two staff reports, and one council member motion. But of course, before we begin our work together, we always like to take a moment to ground ourselves in the recognition of the territories on which we have the opportunity to do our work, the lands and the waters that surround them that have been stewarded for so many generations by the Lekwungen people. We have so many opportunities to work with the Songhees Nation and the Kosapsum Nation in an effort to ensure that all of the people who live here in the City of Victoria have as many opportunities as possible to enjoy the pleasures and the realities and the opportunities that are here in the city. We had, in fact, a very interesting day yesterday as we celebrated Canada Day and had a chance to join with the nations as they too opened the celebrations on the lawns of the legislature with a performance from the Lekwungen dancers and some very thoughtful comments from the leaders of both nations. And I think it is helpful for us to realize that even recognizing what is historically a very colonial celebration, we can do so in recognition of the fact that we understand that over our histories there has been controversy, but that we are eas ing into a time when we begin to und …

Thank you. to the remarkable work of the nations that provides something personally important to them in their own lives. And sometimes with that, we like to thank them in their own language, which is to say simply Haichikasiem or Haichikasiem Nikwilja. And to do that, we honour a little bit of their history and we recognise a great deal of the value that we place on our ongoing relationships. Haichikasiem Nikwilja. I have no additional remarks to make today. There are many opportunities to participate during the various items that we have on our agenda. So we'll move on right to late items. I'm not aware of any late items that need to be added to today's agenda. So with that, I will look for someone to move the published agenda as it is. Thanks, Councillor Coleman, seconded by Councillor Dell. Any discussion on the agenda as published? Seeing none. All those in favour of the agenda? Anyone opposed? That is unanimous. I will check my iPad a little more frequently than usual to make sure that Councillor Hammond has a chance to participate as he desires. So the agenda is approved unanimously. That takes us on to the consent agenda. There are two items proposed for the consent agenda. Item G1, the recommendation for the cannabis room at 1545 Fort Street. And item H1, the council member motion with regard to advocacy to the province to restore better terms for property tax deferral programs for seniors and others in need. Anything that anyone would like to remove or add? Councill …

Thank you. to do and support and encounter as much as we can for as long as we can. With that, we'd like to say thank you and to offer a tiny bit of respect by just using a simple phrase in the language of the Lekw angan people, and that is to say, just to say thank you and to express our gratitude and our respect and honour for all of those people in our community who take the time to choose to do something that is going to better one other person's life. I have no remarks to add today to our otherwise full agenda , and I'm not aware of any late items that need to be added to today. And so that moves us on to discussion of our published agenda. So first I would look for a motion to approve the agenda as published. Thanks, Councillor Coleman. Seconded by Councillor Kim. Any discussion of the published agenda? Not seeing any, and I will occasionally look more closely at my iPad so that Councillor Hammond can participate. Seeing no discussion of the published agenda, all those in favour? Anyone opposed? That is unanimous. There are three items proposed for the consent agenda, and I will just remind folk that here at Council, items are proposed for the consent agenda if they have been unanimous at committee, or, and sometimes and or, they are preliminary readings. So proposed today are items F1, the minutes from the evening Council meeting held May 14, 2026, item G1AC, the council member motion with regard to 28 Bastion Square, and item H1, the amendment bylaw for development co …

the daytime council meeting for Victoria City Council for Thursday, June 18th. Councilors Dell and Thompson are joining us online today, and Councilor Cardona is unavailable to us today. Today we have for our consideration two sets of minutes, two bylaws, and one closed item of business. But before we begin our work together, we always like to take a moment to ground ourselves in an expression of our appreciation, gratitude, and recognition of the remarkable work that has been undertaken for so many generations by the Kosapsam and Songhees nations, the Lekwungen people who have served for so many centuries to be the stewards of these lands, all of these lands on which the city sits in its entirety. The nations continue to offer their generosity and being able to work with us, wanting to work with us, on programs and projects and on issues that serve all of the people who have the privilege of living here in Victoria, and to continue to offer their time in less formal ways as we have the chance to get together as we did earlier this week, to share a meal and to do so with a much less official and much less programmed opportunity when we just get together as people to renegotiate and learn new relationships with one another at the staff level, at the council level, and as at the person-to-person level. It is those opportunities that give us a chance to see one another as individuals and to understand how much we have in common and how much we learn from one anothe …

Good morning, everyone. Excuse me, and welcome to the June 18th Committee of the Whole meeting of Victoria City Council. Councillors Dell and Thompson are joining us online today, and Councillor Caradona is unavailable. Today we have for our consideration two sets of minutes, one land use matter and one staff report. Excuse me. But of course, before we begin, we always like to take a moment to ground ourselves and our considerations in an acknowledgement of respect and understanding of the generosity and commitment of the two nations on whose territories our city sits in its entirety, the Songhees Nation and the Kosapsum Nation. The Lekwungen people have for generations taken care of these lands and the waters that surround them, and done so with the idea that they are acknowledging and honouring those who came before them, but also dealing with the issues of the day, while thinking ahead as many as seven generations to determine what actions need to be taken to ensure that all those generations through all that time have the ability to live as well as they are able. I think this is a great example for us to consider as to how we make our own decisions, looking at the past, but considering the challenges of the current day, but also looking ahead for those folks who are coming later, so many generations away from us. We acknowledge always the remarkable opportunities that we have to join with the nations and work together, and on the opportunities that we have just to get tog …

And then welcome to the Thursday June 11th meeting of Victoria City Council's Committee of the Whole. Today we have for our consideration a proposed late item, two cents of minutes, a presentation from Destination Greater Victoria, two staff reports, and three or possibly four council member motions. But before we begin, we always like to take a moment to ground ourselves and our work in a recognition and acknowledgement of the two nations on whose territories our city sits in its entirety. The Lekwungen people of the Songhees Nation and the Kosaps um Nation have spent generations ensuring that we have the opportunities and the chance to do the work that we do in an environment which in days like this is particularly notable for how gorgeous and warm and reassuring it is. In addition to the environment in which we live, of course, there are so many opportunities for us to make important decisions that we hope respect the past and all the work that's come before us. challenges and deals with those issues facing us today for all of the people who are here now, but also with an eye, of course, to preparing for all of those people who will live here in the city of Victoria in the future. Whether they're here now or whether they are coming, and we know that they are. When we consider all of the nations, we want to always take a moment to ground what we do in that learning, but also to express our thanks for the ongoing generosity of the nations in contin …

Council meeting of Victoria City Council here today on June the 11th. Before we begin our work together tonight, and before we begin any of our work together when we gather together here at City Hall, we like to start by just taking a moment to ground ourselves in the acknowledgement and expression of gratitude that we all have for being able to be here, not the least of which is for the generations of stewardship and care taken by the Lekwungen people, now known to us as the Song hees and Kosapsun Nations, who have for so many generations taken it upon themselves to be the stewards and caretakers of these lands and the waters that surround them. And whenever we have an opportunity to join together for whatever purpose, we'd like to just reflect for a moment on all of the opportunities and experiences that are available to us through the generosity and continuing commitment of the nations to do the work that they have done for so long continually and to continue to do that. I always urge those who are here with us and those who may be listening to take a moment each day and to find some experience or some sound, some thought, something that reminds them on a very personal level of their own ability to be here by virtue of those efforts. And for that moment, to really appreciate the reality of what the nations have undertaken for so many, many years and the cost that that has had to them and the resilience that has shown for them. And we continue to be very thankful for the on …

and welcome to Victoria City Council's Council meeting during the day at Thursday, June 11th. I note that only because we do have an evening Council meeting this evening, about which I'll speak a little later. Today we have for our consideration two sets of minutes, reports from three committees of the whole, two bylaws, one item of new business, and a closed item. But of course, before we begin, we always like to take a moment to ground ourselves and our work and an acknowledgement and recognition of the remarkable work undertaken by the two nations on whose territories our city sits in its entirety, the Lekwangan people of the Songhees Nation and the Khoasapsum Nation, and to remember and value and treasure and bring homage to the incredible work that the two nations have undertaken over so many generations to ensure that we have the opportunities to make the decisions that we make here in this chamber and to make the decisions that we choose to undertake to do different things to improve the quality of life across our community. The nations themselves have for so many years thought first of how to protect land and the waters that surround this island in a way which allows there to be generations of folk who can live their lives here to the best of their abilities. And we treasure the fact that the generosity of the nations continues in their stewardship and in the time that they give to all of us to work with them and to learn from and with them and to do wor …

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. you but also to offer our respect to those who are here today with us either in these chambers in these buildings in the community in the families that surround us and thank each one of us for the leadership that we choose to make moment by moment throughout our lives. I do not have any remarks to offer today and nor are there any late items to be added to today's agenda as far as I know and so we would look for a motion to approve the agenda as published. Thanks Councillor Coleman, seconded by Councillor Gardner. Any discussion on the published agenda? Not seeing any so all those in favour? Anyone opposed? That is unanimous. There are three items proposed for the consent agenda and as I often do I will remind the public that they are proposed here because they were adopted or considered rather unanimously at an earlier committee of the whole meeting and so these are three proposals for the consent agenda. Item F1AA, the heritage designation application for 1784 Denman Street. Item F1AB, the endorsement of funding and award applications on behalf of the city. Item F1AC, a council member motion with regard to strategies and resources to require cooling in Victoria's rental buildings. Does anyone wish to remove any of those? Okay, no one removal. I'm here. Councillor Coleman is moving the consent age …

Good morning, everyone, and welcome to the May 28th meeting of the Victoria City Council's Committee of the Whole. We are a full complement today in person, which is lovely. Today we have for our consideration a presentation from one of our partners, two land use matters and two council member motions. But before we begin, we always want to take a moment to ground ourselves in the work that we do and the opportunities that we have to make important and really quite impacting decisions by the fact that we are sitting here on the territories of the Lekwungen people, the Songhees and the Kosapsum nations, who have for so many generations taken it upon themselves to be stewards of these lands and the waters that surround them. On a day like today, in particular, it is easy to understand why those decisions were made by those members for so many years to ensure that we have the opportunity to enjoy the circumstances that we see today around the environment in which we live, certainly the climate in which we live, and the opportunities that both of those things bring to us. The nations themselves have managed to really remarkably extol their own resilience and being able to endure the many challenges that we have placed in front of them over the years and have managed to arise above much of that, although certainly that evolution and resilience continues to expand. As we have the opportunity when we do whatever we gather to reflect just for a moment on the relationship, the remarka …
