Ottawa Carleton District School Board Proposal – A.Y. Jackson S.S. Renovation

July 4th, 2025 


As most Glen Cairn residents and A.Y. Jackson families are likely already aware, the Ottawa Carleton District School Board has been getting ready to begin the renovations on A.Y. Jackson S.S.
​
Residents who live near the school should have received notices about this project from the OCDSB and students and their families knew this work was set to begin this summer.

This application is to construct a two-storey addition of approximately 3,365 square metres of gross floor area located to the south of the existing school. The renovations will include adding in 13 classrooms, a gym, a music and drama room and the proposal also includes a parking lot expansion and interior alterations to the school.
The baseball diamond will be relocated, and the site is designed to accommodate portables in the future.

THE BELOW RENDERINGS ARE THE PROPOSED DESIGN VISUALS FOR THE ADDITION
(please note finished construction could vary slightly from renderings)

You can provide comments of feedback on this proposal until July 18, 2025 at the following link or you can contact the planner directly at [email protected]. Comments received after this date will be accepted, however, may not be reflected in the staff report.

I will post updates as I receive them here and also on my website.

Street Racing in the Community
June 16th, 2025 

As we approach the summer season, the sounds of street racing and loud vehicles on our streets have again come up as a common topic of discussion amongst residents.

Again this year, we are urging residents to report each incident to the Ottawa Police Service (OPS) as each report they receive, helps generate more data they can use to allocate resources to areas needed, for projects such as Residents Matter and Project NoiseMaker that help stop stunt driving and other dangerous acts by reckless drivers. 

Please call the Ottawa Police non-emergency line at 613-236-1222 to report incidents of street racing or dangerous driving so that officers in the area can be notified immediately.
 
You can also report online here: File a Report - Ottawa Police Service
 
Please ask for a report number so we can follow up on actions taken. Thank you for doing your part to keep Kanata South a safe community. 
Interview with Bill Carroll about City of Ottawa Notifications for High Water Usage 

June 12th, 2025
Yesterday morning on CFRA, Bill Carroll highlighted a question brought up by the public: Why doesn’t the City automatically sign people up for high water usage alerts?


A lot of folks don’t even know these alerts exist until they get hit with a huge bill from a leak or issue they didn’t catch in time. These alerts can notify you when your water use suddenly spikes, and they could save you hundreds of dollars.
 
So yesterday at Council, I submitted an inquiry to City staff asking:

Can we turn these alerts on for everyone by default?
If not for people with paper bills, what about those signed up with My Service Ottawa?
 
I hope to make sure people are protected before there’s a problem, not after.
 
To turn on these alerts, residents with MyServiceOttawa accounts and are receiving paperless billing can register for consumption alerts by signing into their account and selecting “alert subscription.” The system can notify users by email when usage is consistent over seven days, exceeds average daily use, or surpasses a set threshold. Residents can also track daily and hourly water use and compare past bills.
