GENERAL UPDATES

Understanding the fundamental role of municipalities At the heart of the ideal candidate for Ward 6 is a strong service mindset, a willingness to listen, and a clear understanding of local priorities. Candidates who understand how municipal government works and how it is distinct from provincial and federal responsibilities will bring added credibility to the role. Many issues are often misunderstood or conflated with areas outside municipal jurisdiction. AMO’s Municipal 101 guide is a helpful primer on the structure and responsibilities of local government:

Guelph Lake Nature Centre The Guelph Lake Nature Centre is coming along nicely! I caught a close look at the new building while out for a walk through the conservation area. The centre is set to officially welcome students in September 2025. Exciting to see it all taking shape!

FISCAL FOCUS & CUSTOMER SERVICE

Private Tree Bylaw Update In April, Council adopted a Private Tree Protection Bylaw aimed at protecting large, mature trees, particularly on larger lots. While staff initially recommended a 50 cm DBH threshold focused on mature trees, Council opted for stricter regulations. I proposed a compromise at 40

🌳

cm instead of the 30cm to help avoid a heavy-handed rollout, but the motion did not pass.

Ahead of the vote, Council heard from a local arborist, who supported the bylaw’s intent but cautioned against moving too quickly. He recommended maintaining the 50 cm threshold and proposed an incentive program to encourage tree planting. He also raised concerns that a sudden increase in prescriptiveness could stigmatize his profession in the community.

Parks staff have indicated that implementing these changes will require deferring other planned work. To be clear, I'm all for a stop-gap supporting tree preservation. However, my outstanding concern remains around capacity, as no amount of funding can instantly create the staffing or resources needed. I remain committed to practical, enforceable policies that build long-term trust and support good-faith stewardship in the broader community.

018 Councillor Chew Q2 2025 Progress Report

"The cost of implementing the revised bylaw is pegged at $261,000. Regulation creates a permitting process, fees, inspections and, potentially, fines for violations."

FISCAL FOCUS & CUSTOMER SERVICE

Corporate Asset Management Master Plan On June 3rd, Council received the City's Corporate Asset Management Plan to guide how we care for public infrastructure, including roads, pipes, parks, and public buildings. The goal is to ensure services stay reliable, affordable, and well-maintained over time.

State of the Assets

* N/A – Not applicable, Undefined Condition Rating 2025 Corporate Asset Management Plan and Levels of Service

Aging infrastructure brings higher risk

Many assets are nearing the end of their life cycle. Without steady investment, we risk declining service and rising maintenance backlogs.

Provincial regulations now require more

As of July 2025, municipalities must report not only on current service levels, but also outline future targets and how they will be funded.

020 Councillor Chew Q2 2025 Progress Report

Did you know?

Our infrastructure is worth $7.7 billion. That equals about $50,000 per resident if we had to replace everything today.

Bottom Line

Delivering critical infrastructure is one of the City’s core responsibilities. It’s the foundational heavy lifting that supports our communities, businesses, and housing. Many of these investments, notably water mains, sewers, and facility systems, often go unseen.

To ensure long-term reliability and public safety, it’s essential that our infrastructure needs are continuously monitored and prioritized. This plan helps the City focus on managing risk, meeting community expectations, and balancing safety with long-term costs.

By visualizing the condition and service levels of our assets, the plan brings greater transparency

and discipline to tough decisions, especially in a time of growing demand and limited resources.

Community Benefit Agreements Review In response to the 2025 budget, City staff reviewed the Community Benefit Agreement (CBA) program to improve clarity, transparency, and effectiveness. CBAs are strategic, City-led partnerships that fund community organizations better positioned to deliver specific outcomes.

The review found strengths in structure and relationships but also gaps in purpose, selection, and accountability.

Bottom line

Recommendations include aligning CBAs with the City’s strategic plan and multi-year budget, improving intake and renewal processes, and introducing clearer reporting and evaluation standards. The updated CBA process will bring stronger oversight and clearer value for public investment in the community. Full implementation is expected by 2026.

FISCAL FOCUS & CUSTOMER SERVICE

2025 Internal Audit Projects Value for Money and Operational Review of Permit Approvals and Inspections

Following up with our City's internal auditor, this project is set to begin in Q4. Residents, builders, and businesses depend on clear and timely decisions, whether they are planning home renovations, starting a new build, or scheduling safety inspections. When processes are delayed or unclear, it creates frustration, adds costs, and slows down progress.

Bottom line

This review will help pinpoint inefficiencies, improve turnaround times, and ensure staff time are more intentionally used to help customers. I’ll be keeping a close eye on this audit project as part of our broader efforts to strengthen service delivery and accountability. This remains one of my key areas of advocacy for those navigating the planning and building process.

University of Guelph Land Use Vision The University of Guelph has released its long-term Real Estate Strategy and Land Use Vision to guide better use of its endowment lands. I participated in the engagement process and emphasized the need for more purpose-built student housing and strong urban design.

This plan focuses on proactive and thoughtful development, while evaluating long-term leases.

The goal is to ease off-campus pressure by better utilizing university-owned endowment lands.

During my conversations with the project team, I emphasized that most of South Guelph is largely made up of first-generation subdivisions, with a built form that is not well-suited to absorbing additional population pressure.

For residents who value the character and stability of our neighbourhoods, this plan provides a pathway to reduce that pressure, while still supporting the long-term success of the university and the city as a whole. As your councillor, I remain committed to helping nurture a strong, collaborative relationship between the City and our University partners.

Downtown Heights Strategy

URBAN AMPHITHEATRE CONCEPTUAL APPROACH The guiding principles and conceptual considerations outlined above reflect both the aspiration and practicality of preserving Guelph’s urban character while identifying opportunities for strategic infill and intensification. The emphasis on maintaining the city’s existing character has informed the development of an ‘Urban Amphitheatre’ approach to building heights. This concept envisions a tiered, structured skyline that frames the Downtown core while respecting key heritage assets, public spaces, and view corridors.

Taller buildings are positioned further from the core, creating a stepped effect that visually encloses the space while maintaining openness.

The railway track, Wyndham St., and Norfolk St. form natural edges that reinforce the amphitheatre’s structure.

Figure 1: Aerial Photo of Guelph looking towards the city, Ontario (City of Guelph) ii The open space in front of City Hall, framed by surrounding streets and buildings, acts as the focal point.

This space serves as a public gathering area, reinforcing its role as a civic and cultural hub.

Key view corridors towards the Basilica are maintained, ensuring that new development does not obstruct significant vistas.

Key entry points, such as Macdonell Street, offer opportunities for iconic mid-to-high-rise buildings that define the Downtown skyline while respecting the amphitheatre’s layered height approach.

Placement of taller buildings considers topographical changes to minimize visual impact on historic areas.

These buildings act as visual anchors, marking important transition zones into Downtown.

Buildings closest to the civic core and heritage areas maintain mid-rise heights (4-6 storeys) to preserve the intimate pedestrian scale and protect historic character.

Moving outward, heights gradually increase, allowing for taller buildings south of the railway track and at key gateway locations, such as along Macdonell Street and near the Speed River.

Proposing minor changes

*We already require rooftop mechanical screening in our comprehensive zoning bylaw. This is nothing new.

Council approved the Downtown Heights Study Official Plan Amendment to support responsible growth while protecting key heritage views.

During the discussion, staff initially proposed including rooftop mechanical units within overall height caps. I disagreed with this approach, since our zoning already requires these elements to be screened and integrated. Including them would effectively remove one functional storey. For example, a 10-storey cap would result in only 9 usable floors.

Instead, I supported maintaining screening requirements while directing staff to review rooftop mechanicals more thoroughly through future Tall Building Standards, rather than locking in rigid limits now.

Removing the rooftop height cap allows more livable or usable space without compromising the skyline. This flexible and practical change was unanimously supported by Council.

Encouraging density downtown is key to managing growth. With Conestoga College expanding, infrastructure upgrades underway, and downtown designated as a Major Transit Station Area, we must direct growth to where it fits best. Otherwise, pressure will shift to first generational subdivisions and low-density areas like South Guelph, which are not designed for it.

Many downtown residents I’ve spoken with, including those on Edwin Street, understand the expectations that come with growth. I will continue advocating for balanced, thoughtful planning to support our city’s future. kenyeechew.ca

036 Councillor Chew Q2 2025 Progress Report

Updates to the Gordon Street Improvements The City's Engineering Department is on track with the detailed design for Gordon Street. I look forward to seeing construction get underway next year.

Additional stormwater improvements have already been completed on Lowes Road and Gordon Street to better manage drainage and reduce flooding. Final repaving will take place during the reconstruction of Gordon Street.

Since the original project plans were developed, a few key changes have been made. I have asked engineering staff to provide an update on the design changes compared to the original scope.
