Councillor Rawlson King

Newsletter Thursday, 30 June 2022

With the upcoming long weekend, the City is working to ensure that by-laws are observed in order to have a safe Canada Day. The long weekend also means that there will be many impacts concerning regular schedules and traffic. Additionally, residents are advised that a motor-vehicle control zone will be in effect in the downtown core until July 4. A map of the control zone can be consulted in this newsletter. I am wary of this weekend’s events and extremely cognizant of the fact that such events could trigger fear and anxiety. As one of the more affected wards during the illegal occupation this past winter, residents know firsthand how stressful and dire the situation became. The safety and security of residents remains my top priority. If you are feeling stressed or overwhelmed, please reach out and speak to someone.

City ensures by-laws observed for safe and respectful Canada Day 

The City of Ottawa is ensuring Canada Day weekend, running from Wednesday, June 29 to Sunday, July 3, remains safe and respectful for all residents and visitors. This will include enforcement of all by-laws regarding noise, litter, fireworks, and on-street parking and stopping. 

Ticketing and towing 

The City of Ottawa By-law and Regulatory Services (BLRS) will have Officers out on the streets ensuring all parking regulations are observed by residents and visitors. All vehicles found failing to observe the no-stopping zones will be ticketed and towed. Parking time limits and no parking zones outside the centre core will also be strictly enforced.
