Background Information (City Council)

Motions (City Council)

Motion to Introduce Motion without Notice moved by Councillor Josh Matlow (Carried)

That Councillor Josh Matlow be permitted to add to the agenda of today's meeting an urgent Motion without Notice concerning:

 

Amending Items 2017.CC34.5 and 2025.GG24.14 respecting Non-Profit Licensed Daycare Centre at 115 and 117 to 127 Broadway Avenue

 

Reason for Urgency:

 

This motion is urgent because the daycare facility is finished, save for minor items that do not impede its operation. There is a desire to have the daycare facility ready to be opened for public use, with an operator in place as soon as possible. Delaying consideration of this motion until the next City Council meeting could result in a delay in the daycare space being available for use, as City staff require authority to negotiate the necessary agreements and/or amending agreements before the daycare space can be opened.


Motion to Adopt Item (Carried)

Motion to Re-open Item (Carried)

Speaker Nunziata advised Council that consideration of Motion MM35.31 requires a re-opening of Item 2025.GG24.14 (October 8 and 9, 2025 City Council meeting) only as it pertains to Part 1. A two-thirds vote of the Council Members present is required to re-open the Item.
