1.

OPENING PRAYER

 

 

Mayor Nenshi gave the opening prayer at today's meeting.

 

 

2.

QUESTION PERIOD

 

 

City Hall C-Train Platform Waiting Area (Councillor Carra)

 

Prior to the holiday break, I took the C-train going south from the City Hall C-train platform.  On that evening it was bitterly cold, and while waiting for the train, I discovered that the area just inside the Administration Building had a sign indicating that it was not an LRT waiting area and that no loitering was permitted.  Can you explain the rationale for a warm public building right on the C-train line not permitting citizens to wait inside out of the bitter cold?

 

Owen Tobert, City Manager, advised that he believed the issue was with respect to the different budgets for maintenance of the LRT platform versus maintenance of the building.  He indicated he will ensure the two responsible areas meet to see if an accommodation can be worked out.

 

 

 

RECOGNITIONS

 

On behalf of Members of Council, Mayor Nenshi congratulated Glenda Cole, City Solicitor, on her appointment as Queen’s Counsel which recognizes her outstanding contributions to legal and public life.

 

Mayor Nenshi also recognized three great Calgarians who were named to the Order of Canada: Denise Clarke, W.R. (Bob) McPhee, Joan Snyder as well as Dr. Morton Doran of British Columbia, a Member of the Faculty of Medicine at the University of Calgary.

 

 

Access Calgary Transportation Services (Councillor Colley-Urquhart)

 

I have been advised that the process for citizens to apply for Access Calgary transportation services is extremely arduous and involves completion of a 15 page document and attendance at an interview at the Access Calgary facility.   Further, I have concerns that citizens with limited mobility may experience challenges if they require assistance once they are dropped off outside their homes.  Can you investigate my concerns with Access Calgary and provide a response?

 

Mac Logan, General Manager, Transportation, indicated that he will investigate Councillor Colley-Urquhart’s concerns regarding the Access Calgary application process and door-to-door policy, and will respond directly to all Members of Council.

 

 

 

Snow Dumps for Private Contractors (Councillor Pootmans)

 

I have concerns with contractors seeking places to dump snow now that our public lots are no longer allowing access to private snow removal contractors.  Can you provide an update on this issue, as well as suggestions on alternatives for dumping snow?

 

Mac Logan, General Manager, Transportation, responded that the three permanent snow dumps in Calgary were closed to private contractors three years ago, in conjunction with the Snow and Ice Control Policy.  He indicated that it is the responsibility of private landowners to have snow removed from their sites and disposed of in a suitable location and suggested they can bring in snow melting equipment or store it elsewhere on their property.  Mr. Logan

advised they are presently looking for suitable temporary sites for snow dumps, but have nothing to announce yet.
