Councillor McKenzie concurs that the subcommittee model works and adds the City has developed a Plan that can address housing and homelessness in the region. The City and Councillors as well as the broader community will need to know the challenging aspects outlined in the Plan.

J. Zuk states she has difficulty reconciling the standing committee process with the council committees because prior to the implementation of standing committees, the role of council committees was very different. For example, when the 10 Year Housing & Homelessness Plan was presented to Council, Council requested administration come back with proposed dates. In the past, this may have been generated at the committee level to go up to Council. She expresses concern about the future of council committees.

D. Cercone advises the 10 Year Housing & Homelessness Master Plan sets out timelines and targets. She adds the role and directives of the subcommittee is yet to be articulated.

Mayor Gary McNamara requests that the 10 Year Housing & Homelessness Master Plan also be reviewed by County Council. D. Cercone indicates that the Plan will be brought forward to County Council on December 18, 2019.

In response to a question asked by J. Zuk regarding if HHAC members should delegate before County Council, Mayor McNamara responds affirmatively.

Moved by Councillor McKenzie, seconded by J. Steele, That a subcommittee BE ESTABLISHED for the purpose of supporting the activities to lead to the implementation of the 10 Year Housing & Homelessness Master Plan and further, that relevant administrative resources from the City and County BE INVITED to sit on the subcommittee. Carried.

4.2 Community Services & Parks Standing Committee November 6, 2019 Meeting

Councillor McKenzie refers to pages 21 and 22 of the Windsor Essex Housing & Homelessness Master Plan Presentation to Community Services Standing Committee (November 6, 2019)which identifies "What can Council do to support the Plan?" and "What do we need from the Community?"

Councillor McKenzie indicates there is an outstanding Council Question CQ 202019 that: "Asks that administration report back on inclusionary zoning and how it could be applied to the City of Windsor". He notes this specific issue could be identified as a priority for the subcommittee as it is of keen interest at the Council and community level.
