Special Ballot Voter Kits received after the deadline <strong>will not be counted</strong>. </span></p>
<p><span dir="ltr" lang="EN-CA">The Elections Office and all Client Service Centres will offer extended hours on Friday, October 16, from 8:30 am to 8 pm, for the purpose of certifying proxy forms and receiving completed Special Ballot Voter Kits. To ensure Special Ballot Voter Kits are received by the deadline, electors who have not yet mailed their kit are encouraged to deliver it in person to the Elections Office or any Client Service Centre before 8 pm on Friday, October 16.</span></p>
<h3><span dir="ltr" lang="EN-CA"><strong>Vote in person </strong></span></h3>
<p>Advance Voting Day for the 2026 Municipal Elections will take place on <strong>Friday, October 16</strong>. Eligible electors can vote at their assigned voting place in their ward from 10 am to 8 pm. To find their assigned voting place, electors can refer to their Voter Notification Letter, use the Where Do I Vote? tool on <a class="ext" title="(opens in a new window)" href="https://elections.ottawa.ca/VotingLocation/VotingLocation" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" data-extlink="">ottawa.ca/vote<i class="fa-ext extlink" aria-label="(link is external)" aria-hidden="false"></i></a>, or contact the Elections Office. Electors who have a Voter Notification Letter are encouraged to bring it to the voting place, but it is not required to vote.</p>
<p>Electors who do not vote on Advance Voting Day will have one additional in-person opportunity to vote at their assigned voting place within their ward on Voting Day, Monday, October 26.</p>
<h3><strong>Voters’ List and voter identification</strong></h3>
<p>Electors whose names do not appear on the Voters’ List or who need to update their information can do so at their voting place when they go to vote. <a class="ext" title="(opens in a new window)" href="https://app06.ottawa.ca/online_services/forms/elections/add_amend_voterslist_2026_en.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" data-extlink="" data-once="open-new-tab file-icons-pdf">Applications to add or amend information on the Voters’ List<i class="fa-ext extlink" aria-label="(link is external)" aria-hidden="false"></i></a> will be available at every voting place and are easy to fill out on-site.</p>

<p>If an elector cannot present acceptable proof of identity and address, they can make a statutory declaration before being issued a ballot.</p>
<h3><strong>Vote by proxy</strong></h3>
<p>Electors who are unable to make it to a voting place on Advance Voting Day or Voting Day and who are not voting by special mail-in ballot can appoint a proxy to vote on their behalf by completing the required forms and having them certified by City of Ottawa staff.

<h3><span dir="ltr" lang="FR-CA">Ottawa continue de progresser vers l’atteinte de ses objectifs en matière de logement </span></h3>
<p><span dir="ltr" lang="FR-CA">Le Conseil municipal s’est fixé comme objectif de contribuer à la construction de 151 000 logements à Ottawa d’ici 2031. Le suivi de cet objectif a débuté en janvier 2023. Depuis, des demandes ont été approuvées pour la construction de plus de 74 000 nouveaux logements.

La construction résidentielle reste vigoureuse à Ottawa, qui continue d’afficher l’un des taux de construction de maisons neuves les plus élevés de l’Ontario. Seulement au cours du premier semestre, ce sont plus de 4 100 résidences dont la construction a débuté.</span></p>
<p><span dir="ltr" lang="FR-CA">Ainsi, plus de 49 % des logements nécessaires pour atteindre l’objectif fixé pour 2031 ont déjà fait l’objet d’une approbation. Si le Conseil approuve les recommandations du Comité, les promoteurs immobiliers pourront passer aux étapes suivantes en vue de la construction de 832 logements supplémentaires. Depuis le début de l’année 2026, le Comité a recommandé l’approbation de demandes d’aménagement qui permettraient la construction de près de 4 200 nouveaux logements.</span></p>
<p><span dir="ltr" lang="FR-CA">Le Conseil municipal examinera les recommandations issues de la réunion d’aujourd’hui le jeudi 8 octobre.</span></p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>On Tuesday, October 20, 2026, the Committee of Adjustment (CoA) will consider an application for a change to the rear yard of the warehouse at 5977 Hazeldean Road, located in an MS2 zone. The applicant requires the permission of the committee to expand a fenced-in outdoor storage area behind the existing warehouse.</p>
<p>The existing fenced-in storage area is legal non-conforming, meaning it was put in place before the current regulations were established. The new zoning bylaw requires that outdoor storage accessory areas next to neighbourhood zones must be enclosed, screened, and surrounded by a landscaped buffer at least 3 meters wide. The applicant is proposing a fence around the storage area screened by both existing and new trees in a 6 meter wide buffer around the border of adjacent properties. At the same time, they also propose expanding the size of the storage area from 100 feet by 140 feet to 190 feet by 230 feet.</p>
<p>The notice of application and the plans submitted by the applicant are available on the <a href="https://pub-ottawa.escribemeetings.com/Meeting.aspx?Id=243db89a-9889-4e18-9a2c-212137b70b15&amp;Agenda=Agenda&amp;lang=English&amp;Item=11&amp;Tab=attachments">City’s committee meetings portal</a>. The Committee of Adjustment will consider this application starting at 9:00 am on October 20 at Ben Franklin Place (101 Centrepointe Drive). The hearing can also be viewed on the Committee of Adjustment <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCZ9Z3-VJcSMSqrWRORMlRjQ">YouTube page.</a></p>
<p>The CoA is a quasi-judicial tribunal that is independent and autonomous from City Administration and City Council. Residents can provide feedback directly to the committee. You may register to speak at the hearing or submit written comments in advance of the meeting by emailing <a href="mailto:cofa@ottawa.ca">cofa@ottawa.ca</a>. Note that all information presented to the Committee of Adjustment is considered public information and can be shared with any interested individual.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>UPDATE October 5, 2026:</strong></p>
<p>This application was approved by City Council on September 9, 2026. Following that, however, a technical error was discovered related to the parcels listed in the zoning bylaw amendment. As a result, the application has been re-opened with the correct information inclusive of 6240 Hazeldean Road and 1179 Carp Road. There are no changes in the details of the application itself or the size of the proposed development. Notifications are being recirculated to the surrounding area.</p>
<p><em>La version française suit</em></p>
<p>The City of Ottawa has received Minor Zoning By-law Amendment and Site Plan Control applications for 6250 Hazeldean Road. The site is at the corner of Hazeldean and Carp where the Petro-Canada gas station is located.</p>
<p>The owner, Suncor, wants to add a single-storey KFC restaurant and drive-thru to the site. The existing gas tank nest, canopy, convenience store and car wash will remain as is.</p>
<p><a href="https://devapps.ottawa.ca/en/applications/D02-02-26-0033/details">More information about the proposal is available on the City’s DevApps site…</a></p>
<hr />
<h3>Minor Zoning By-law Amendment</h3>
<p>The site is currently zoned Arterial Mainstret, Subzone 9 (AM9) in the City of Ottawa’s Zoning By-law 2008-250, and Mainstreet Zone 2 (MS2) in Zoning By-law 2026-50 that is pending approval. A Minor Zoning By-law Amendment application has been submitted to seek relief from both Zoning By-laws to permit a reduction to the minimum building height, maximum front and corner yard setbacks, and minimum drive-through stacking provisions.</p>
<hr />
<h3>Site Plan</h3>

<hr />
<h3>What is Site Plan Control?</h3>
<p>The site plan control process allows the City to influence land development so that it is safe, functional and orderly. It is also used to ensure that the development standards approved by the City and other agencies are implemented and maintained. Building location, landscape treatment, pedestrian access, drainage control and parking layout are a few of the items addressed during review. Please note that issues such as building height or building use (residential versus commercial, ownership versus rental, etc.) are not a part of a site plan review.</p>
<hr />
<h3>What&#8217;s next</h3>
<p>This application has not been approved. City staff will be reviewing the application to ensure it complies with applicable provincial policy and city policy and by-laws. Councillor Glen will also be reviewing this application with his team.</p>
<p>Note that under Bill 109 enacted by the Provincial government in 2022, City Council no longer has the final say on Site Plan Control approvals. Although councillors can provide feedback and comments, the final decision rests with City staff.</p>
<p>The Zoning By-law Amendment will be considered under the City’s new Staff delegated authority for Minor Zoning By-law Amendments. Councillor Gower can remove delegated authority if required.</p>
<hr />
<h3>Stay informed and share your feedback</h3>

D02-02-26-0033 and D07-12-26-0044 in the subject line. You can copy Councillor Glen at <a href="mailto:glen.gower@ottawa.ca">glen.gower@ottawa.ca </a>.</p>
<p>Please provide comments by <strong>June 3, 2026</strong>. Comments received after this date will be accepted and considered, however, may not be reflected in the staff report.</p>

<h2>6250, chemin Hazeldean : Modification mineure du Règlement de zonage et réglementation du plan d&#8217;implantation</h2>
<p>Des demandes de modification mineure du <em>Règlement de zonage</em> et de réglementation du plan d&#8217;implantation ont été déposées auprès de la Ville d’Ottawa pour le 6250, chemin Hazeldean. Le site se trouve à l’angle du chemin Hazeldean et du chemin Carp, là où est implantée la station d’essence de Petro‑Canada.</p>
<p>La société propriétaire du site, Suncor, veut y aménager un restaurant PFK d’un étage, dont une installation de service au volant. La fosse des réservoirs d’essence, la marquise, le magasin de proximité et le lave‑auto resteront tels quels.</p>
<p><a href="https://devapps.ottawa.ca/fr/applications/D02-02-26-0033/details">Pour en savoir plus sur la proposition, veuillez consulter le site DemDam de la Ville.</a></p>
<hr />
<h3>Modification mineure du Règlement de zonage</h3>
<p>Le site appartient actuellement à la sous‑zone 9 de la zone d’artère principale (AM9) du <em>Règlement de zonage</em> (n° 2008-250) de la Ville d’Ottawa et à la zone de rue principale 2 (MS2) du <em>Règlement de zonage</em> (n° 2026‑50) de la Ville, qui est en instance d’approbation. Une demande de modification mineure du <em>Règlement de zonage</em> a été déposée pour dispenser de l’application des deux règlements de zonage afin d’autoriser des dérogations permettant de réduire la hauteur minimum du bâtiment, d’augmenter les marges de retrait maximums de la cour avant et de la cour latérale, ainsi que de diminuer la longueur minimum des voies d’attente de l’installation de service au volant.</p>

<h3>En quoi consiste la réglementation du plan d’implantation?</h3>
<p>Le <a href="https://ottawa.ca/fr/urbanisme-amenagement-et-construction/reglementation-entourant-les-proprietes-residentielles/le-processus-dexamen-dune-demande-damenagement/depot-de-la-demande/demandes-damenagement/reglementation-des-plans-dimplantation">processus de réglementation du plan d&#8217;implantation</a> permet à la Ville d’orienter l’aménagement foncier pour qu’il soit sécuritaire, fonctionnel et harmonieux. Ce processus permet aussi de s’assurer que les normes d’aménagement approuvées par la Ville et par d’autres organismes sont mises en œuvre et actualisées. La localisation des bâtiments, le traitement paysager, l’accès piétonnier, la régulation du drainage et l’aménagement du stationnement font partie des points traités pendant l’examen. Veuillez noter que les questions comme la hauteur ou la vocation (résidentielle ou commerciale, en propriété ou en location, entre autres) du bâtiment ne font pas partie de l’examen du plan d’implantation.</p>
<hr />
<h3>Les prochaines étapes</h3>
<p>Cette demande n’a pas été approuvée. Le personnel de la Ville l’examinera pour s’assurer qu’elle respecte les politiques applicables du gouvernement provincial, ainsi que les politiques et les règlements de la Ville. Glen Gower, conseiller municipal, se penchera également sur cette demande avec son équipe.</p>
<p>Veuillez noter que selon le projet de loi 109 adopté par le gouvernement provincial en 2022, le Conseil municipal n’a plus le dernier mot dans l’approbation de la réglementation des plans d’implantation. Même si les conseillers municipaux peuvent livrer des observations et des commentaires, la décision finale appartient au personnel de la Ville.</p>
<p>La modification du <em>Règlement de zonage</em> sera analysée dans le cadre des nouveaux pouvoirs délégués au personnel de la Ville pour les modifications mineures à apporter au <em>Règlement de zonage</em>. Glen Gower, conseiller municipal, peut révoquer au besoin les pouvoirs délégués.</p>
