2024 Rural Summit
The City of Ottawa has been exploring ways to improve the provision of services and simplify the “red tape” for the residents and communities of rural Ottawa through the process of the Rural Summit.
Ottawa has endured many changes and challenges since the last Summit in 2008, including a new Official Plan, Zoning By-laws, Strategic Plan update, Covid and the Rural Economic Strategy update, make this the ideal time for the Summit. Ottawa is 80% rural, farming/agriculture representing a large portion of our local economy. It is recognized that it is time for change and the “one size, fits all” is no longer true!
The Summit’s objective was to recommend improvements to the provision of City of Ottawa services and to have dedicated resources in rural Ottawa and strengthen the power of the Agriculture & Rural Affairs (ARAC) Committee of Council.
Results of the 2024 Rural Summit from numerous public consultation meetings/workshops and surveys that took place resulted in the following mandate for the City as presented by Mayor Sutcliffe and the Rural Councillors on November 2, 2024.
