Enact Bylaw 37

Okay, so that passes unanimously. Thank you very much. And thank you very much to our staff. This is a huge amount of work. Really, really appreciate everything you've done. Thank you. We have a couple more matters of business before we recess. First of all, we have to bylaw 37 for enactment, which is subject to approval of report three. So before we begin this agenda item, if anyone believes that they have a conflict of interest, now is the time to declare it. Does anyone have a conflict of interest to disclose? Would somebody like to move the motion? Thank you very much. That was Councillor Kerby-Young and Councillor Bligh and Dominato. Thank you very much. All those in favour, please say aye. Any opposed? That carries unanimously. The approved bylaw can be found on the city's website. We have an urgent business motion regarding scheduling here. I'll just read the text provided to me. Staff have requested that council... that a council member bring a motion as urgent business to cancel the special council meeting scheduled for July 22nd, 2026 at 5 p.m. and extend the meeting reserve on the same day from 4 p.m. to 10 p.m. Can I have a motion to that effect?

Sure, go ahead. Sorry, could you just repeat? We have staff present. The city clerk can speak to questions. Yes. But I don't have a mover or a second. Do I have a mover, please? I have a mover from Meisner. Yeah.

I'll repeat it for you. And I am on the queue. Staff have requested the count that... that a council member bring a motion as urgent business to cancel the special council meeting scheduled for July 22nd, 2026 at 5 p.m. and extend the meeting reserve on the same day from 4 p.m. to 10 p.m. And we have a mover from Councillor Meiszner. And I need a seconder. Councillor Zhou second. Now we have questions from Councillor Dominato. Go right ahead. Yes, thanks, Chair. I would have happily moved it had I known the rationale for it. So I was hoping staff could just explain the rationale for the changes. Jason Tuas, City Clerk. Thank you for the question, Councillor. The special meeting that was scheduled for July 22nd, the primary purpose of that meeting was to be able to enact the Villages Plan. Given the public interest in the Villages Plan, we're not going to be in a position to have council have considered whether to approve that or not. So we know that by the time that special council meeting happens, We won't be able to have that approved at that point in time.
