Ward 3 Community Update - April 17, 2025

Dear Neighbours,

It is so nice to feel the warmth of the sun and see the spring flowers shooting up from the ground these days. I hope that wherever you find yourself, that you can take a few moments to enjoy some air and take in the sounds and sights of spring around you in our wonderful city.

This month, the Ward 3 team has been supporting residents to complete their Vacant Unit Tax Declarations due on April 30th. As of April 9, there are just over 3600 undeclared properties in Ward 3. If you still need to submit yours, my team and I are here to assist.

Join us for drop-in hours at the Bernie Morelli Rec Centre to get help from the Ward 3 team with completing your declaration: Thursday, April 24 | 6:00 PM - 8:00 PM. We’ll have iPads available and our team ready to walk you through the process, making it easy and stress-free.

This issue of the newsletter is full of many updates and I encourage you to take some time to scroll through and get caught up on the good work my office and I have been able to do on your behalf. There are also many great initiatives and opportunities created by community groups and organizations for your engagement in the ward. I hope to see you soon!

And a final reminder, the Ward 3 Office will be closed for the Easter Weekend on both Friday April 18, and Monday April 21. To see the complete list of City service impacts this long weekend, including the HSR and waste collection service, visit the City’s website here.

Yours in Community,

Nrinder Nann

LONG LIVE HAMILTON BIKE SHARE!

Congratulations Hamilton Bike Share!

Last week at General Issues Committee, Council unanimously approved staff’s recommendations to ensure sustainable and predictive funding for Hamilton Bike Share — and I was proud to continue supporting it on behalf of #OurWard3 residents.

In a time when so much feels uncertain, securing stable funding for social infrastructure like our award winning Bike Share gives our communities the ability to continue making healthy, active, and dignified choices about how we move through our city.

As a city that has declared gender-based violence an epidemic, this kind of investment also supports a safer and more accessible public realm — one where everyone has fuller rights to their city. A solution that enables folks to safely get closer to their end trip destinations.

This approval invests in e-bike and expansion to serve more parts of the city as well.

A heartfelt thank you to the many residents and advocates who delegated, organized, and kept the wheels turning over the past 10 years. And special thanks to Peter Topalovic, Project & Program Manager, Sustainable Mobility, for your leadership and dedication to this work.

This is a major milestone for Hamilton’s active transportation future — and a win for equity, safety, and climate resilience.

HAMILTON’S COMMITMENT TO SUPPORTING ASYLUM SEEKERS & REFUGEE CLAIMANTS

At General Issues Committee last week, we approved funding to extend transitional housing services for refugee claimants through December 2025, with the option to continue this support into 2026 and 2027. This decision ensures that critical shelter beds and wraparound services remain in place as more individuals and families arrive in our city seeking safety and stability.

This work is deeply important to me—because behind every statistic is a person who’s endured displacement, crisis, and uncertainty. As a Sanctuary City, Hamilton has made a commitment to protect and support those seeking refuge. These programs help us uphold that promise with dignity and care. And the work our sector partners do also ensures that the compounding need for housing and shelter options across our city are being addressed fulsomely and enabling people to transition through supports and towards a more stable life.

Here’s how it’s working:

  • Wesley Urban Ministries provided transitional housing to 637 individuals in 2023, with an impressive 92% success rate in helping people secure long-term housing.

  • Good Shepherd Centres supported women in crisis with a 94% success rate in transitioning from temporary shelter to permanent homes.

  • Refuge Newcomer Health continues to operate a referral and coordination hub that connects newcomers to culturally responsive services, including housing and healthcare.

These results show the power of community partnerships in creating real impact—and why it’s so important that we keep investing in them. As your Councillor, I’ll continue advocating for long-term funding from federal and provincial governments, so Hamilton isn’t left to carry this work alone.

Thank you for supporting a city where everyone—no matter where they come from—can feel safe and supported.


CLARIFYING ENCAMPMENT RESPONSE & CLEAN UPS

Residents continue to share concerns about encampments and debris along the rail trail, escarpment, surrounding and other greenspaces in the ward. My office has been actively engaging with City Staff and the Coordinated Encampment Response Team (CERT) to ensure outreach, enforcement, and clean-up efforts are being prioritized in these areas so we may directly respond to your inquiries. I’m also adding information here in the e-newsletter to ensure everyone has access to the same information.

  • Encampments Along the Rail Trail & Escarpment
    As it relates to the multiple reports of encampments and waste accumulation along the Keddy Trail between Claremont Access and St. Joseph’s Drive, Outreach Teams were notified last week and again this week, and staff continue to monitor the site closely.

    Encampment enforcement in the 1km radius surrounding temporary shelter locations is a priority for CERT and is actively monitoring the area through regular weekly patrols. The Rail Trail, especially areas like the Claremont Parkette, are receiving frequent attention—trespass notices are being issued and clean-ups are occurring several times per week.

  • Clean-Up Challenges on the Escarpment
    Cleaning up the escarpment presents unique challenges due to uneven terrain and limited equipment access. Staff are using hand tools and hauling debris with ice fishing toboggans to accessible road collection points. While this slows the process, Parks Staff are doing their best—and community reporting helps immensely. If you notice debris or waste, please report it to encampments@hamilton.ca so it can be logged and scheduled for action.

  • Ownership & Responsibilities
    The escarpment lands are a mix of City and CPKC (Canadian Pacific Kansas City) properties. Each manages their respective areas, and CPKC is currently working with the City’s Encampment Team to address clean-ups. The Rail Trail itself is on City property and falls under the Parks By-law and enforcement jurisdiction.

  • What About Litter in the Right-of-Way?
    Litter along streets like Charlton or the Rail Trail is handled based on its source:

    1. General litter (like coffee cups or roadside trash) is handled by Roads Staff through routine spring clean-up.
    2. Encampment-related debris is handled by the Parks Team in coordination with CERT.

  • What to Expect After Reporting
    Once a report is received, Municipal Law Enforcement will respond within 48 hours to confirm receipt and share basic information about the coordinated response. Before any clean-up happens, the site must be inspected to determine if it’s an active encampment or abandoned. If individuals are present, Housing Focused Street Outreach may be engaged to support them in accessing services.

    Clean-ups are often completed in tandem with enforcement, ensuring that once a site is vacated, it can be cleared promptly. However, due to the fluid nature of encampments, some sites see individuals return shortly after being cleared, which may cause delays or the appearance that no action has been taken.

  • How to Help
    We encourage residents to report concerns about debris, encampments, or unsafe conditions directly to encampments@hamilton.ca. Accurate and timely reports help the City’s response teams coordinate efforts more effectively.

We appreciate your care for our community and your patience as teams work to balance compassion, safety, and the maintenance of our public spaces.

SUNDAY PARKING ENFORCEMENT

For years, Sundays have been a blind spot when it comes to parking enforcement in Hamilton—and it’s time for that to change.

Right now, there are no regularly scheduled Parking Control Officers between 5:45am and 10:00pm on Sundays, creating long-standing challenges for public safety, accessibility, and traffic flow—especially in dense neighbourhoods and near busy local businesses where parking turnover matters.

That’s why I’ve brought forward a motion for City Staff to explore expanded parking enforcement to include Sundays. This would support neighbourhood livability, improve customer service, and help address unsafe or unauthorized parking practices.

Staff will be conducting a full review and reporting back to Council in late 2025 with options for implementation, staffing, and costs—so we can build a more responsive and balanced approach to parking citywide.

SIKH HERITAGE MONTH

Happy Vaisakhi Hamilton!

Thank you to the organizers of the annual Sikh Heritage Month @shmhamilton event at City Hall this past Saturday.

I was proud to join Mayor Andrea Horwath, Trustee Paul Tut, the guest speakers and presenters for this year’s truly inspiring event focused on the theme “Challenging the Darkness”.

It was wonderful to connect with Rosey Kaur the founder of The Patka Box @early_concepts  designed for school and recreation centre staff to support young Sikhs who may need support retying or adjusting their sacred hair top knots.

As well as Navjot Kaur, founder of Saffron Press @saffronpress and author of incredible picture books to connect kids of all ages to the stories and experiences of Sikhs.

Listening to Dr. Arashpreet Singh @a.p.s.rhythm founder of Gurmat Sangeet Taksal and accomplished musician in sacred Sikh and classical Indian music who filled Council Chambers with beautiful Sikh prayers and hymns.

And as every year, it was wonderful to catch up with friends and community while officially kicking off Sikh Heritage Month. As the first and only Sikh elected to Hamilton City Council, it is truly an honour for me.

GROUNDBREAKING CEREMONY AT INDWELL’S ACORN FLATS

On April 8, I was proud to join the Mayor, Justin Lewis - Director Housing Secretariat, other City Staff, Indwell, and community partners to officially celebrate the groundbreaking of Indwell's Acorn Flats — a new 23-unit supportive, affordable housing project right here in #OurWard3.

This 3-storey building will offer:

  • 21 two-bedroom and 2 three-bedroom units

  • 6 barrier-free units

  • Passive House design for ultra-low energy use and emissions

  • Shared amenities like onsite laundry and common space

Affordability is guaranteed at 70% or less of median market rent for 20 years, helping to ensure long-term housing security for Hamiltonians who need it most.

This project is only possible because of a mix of funding from the City, community donations, and innovative tools like the Hope & Homes Hamilton Community Bond, which contributed $934,000 to bring Acorn Flats to life.

I remember touring the site with Graham Cubitt before I was elected Ward 3 City Councillor and imagining with him what could be possible to safely house a diversity of households while also tending to multi-generational community building. Delivering on that vision is what drives me most as your Councillor and I look forward to welcoming our new neighbours in homes they can be proud of!

We need more of this. More housing that is supportive, accessible, sustainable, and truly affordable.

MORE AFFORDABLE HOUSING COMING TO 120 WENTWORTH ST. N

I'm pleased to share that City Planning Staff are recommending the approval of Indwell’s proposal to bring 50 much-needed affordable housing units to the site of Wentworth Baptist Church in the heart of the Gibson neighbourhood.

To make this possible, a portion of the existing building—specifically the eastern section—would be removed, while the main sanctuary of the church would be preserved and thoughtfully integrated into the development. The proposed four-storey building will add 50 new homes and include 14 parking spaces (13 underground and one at grade).

Currently, this property is zoned Neighbourhood Institutional (I1) and designated “Neighbourhoods” in both our Urban Structure and Land Use Designations. It’s also identified as “Civic and Institutional” in the Gibson Neighbourhood Plan— a designation that doesn’t permit this kind of residential development. That’s why staff are recommending an amendment to the Neighbourhood Plan to reflect the proposed use as “Institutional and Medium Density Apartments.”

This proposal meets the policy requirements of the Provincial Policy Statement (2024) and the Urban Hamilton Official Plan. It supports the creation of a complete community by adding diverse housing options that are compatible with the character of the neighbourhood, and it makes smart use of existing infrastructure and public transit access.

We’ve heard clearly from many in the community who support this initiative. Letters of support were submitted by several residents and community partners, each underscoring how critical affordable housing is in our neighbourhood. I have to say it is always great to see Ward 3 resident voices directly on the agenda at Planning Committee!

You can read the full staff report here: Report PED25106.

Together, we’re building a more equitable and inclusive Ward 3 — one that leaves no one behind.

ZONING APPROVED FOR HOUSING DEVELOPMENT AT 87-109 ASHLEY ST

An application for a zoning amendment was approved at Planning Committee last week, and ratified at Council, for a six-storey residential building on Ashley St. This step reflects changes based on community feedback and guidance from City Staff.

The proposed development will eventually include 136 residential units, made up of four studio apartments, 83 one-bedroom units, and 49 two-bedroom units. It also includes 89 parking spaces, 68 long-term bicycle parking spaces, and 16 short-term bicycle parking spaces.

An important note is that the original proposal included development on lands at 124 Steven Street. In response to staff feedback and discussions, the applicant has removed this property from the application, ensuring a more focused and context-sensitive design.

At this stage, only one registered concern was brought forward by a resident, related to potential sun/shade impacts on nearby properties. City Staff have reviewed the shade study and determined that there would not be significant loss of sunlight to adjacent backyards. Additional review of sun and shadow impacts will also occur during the Site Plan approval stage, offering another opportunity to ensure that neighbouring properties are respected and protected.

This kind of gentle intensification adds much-needed housing options while making efficient use of existing infrastructure and contributing to a more walkable, bikeable, and connected Ward 3.

You can review the full staff report here: Report PED25081

As always, I’m grateful to residents who take time to engage in the planning process. Your voices help shape thoughtful development that serves the needs of our neighbourhood today and into the future.

455/457-459 KING ST. E DEMOLITION UPDATE

I’ve been advocating for the demolition of 455 and 457–459 King St. E since the facade first fell off — properties that have long been a safety concern for residents here in #OurWard3.

After Council approved the demolition, further issues were uncovered, including asbestos, structural instability, and impacts on the neighbouring building at 461 King. These challenges required additional funding and permits, including a Corridor Development Permit from Metrolinx due to the proximity of the future LRT corridor.

This stretch of King St.E is more than just a transit corridor—it’s an active transportation route used daily by families and children attending St. Patrick Catholic Elementary School. Ensuring safety in this area is absolutely essential. The risk of falling debris meant a full sidewalk closure, and while a single lane has since been converted for pedestrian use, the longer this site remains unstable, the longer that disruption continues.

I’ve been consistently asking staff for updates and progress — because these buildings need to come down. Clearing this site is essential not only for community safety and walkability, but for moving forward with a commitment to positive city building.

So far, asbestos has been removed, utilities disconnected, and interim stabilization completed. Remedial work of the adjacent building at 461 King is on track to wrap up this month, clearing the way for full demolition.

City Staff will issue an update on the projected demolition date after this remedial work to esnure the neighbouring building is completed.

Thank you to the many residents who’ve raised concerns and advocated for change here. I’ll continue sharing updates as we move forward.

UPCOMING 2025 ROAD WORKS ACROSS WARD 3

I have worked with Transportation, Transportation Planning and Engineering Services to pull together a comprehensive list of road work scheduled for implementation this year. This breaks down into: Road Resurfacing, Road Reconstruction, Safety Enhancements & Other Capital Works, and Sidewalk Improvements. Below is a breakdown for you and your neighbours to anticipate what is coming versus works already underway (like the ones in both Gibson and Stipley on Wilson, Wentworth, and Sherman).


Road Resurfacing

An additional $5.5 million has been allocated to the Transportation Division’s city-wide Preventative Road Maintenance Program in the 2025 Capital Budget. This funding boost will support essential preservation work, including resurfacing and overlaying of arterial, collector, residential, and rural roadways across the city. This will all help maintain the safety and durability of our roads for all road users while prolonging the usable lifespan of them until major sub-surface upgrades or reconstructions are needed.

The following road segments in Keith and Industrial Sector B will be resurfaced this year:

  • Macallum St: Burlington St E to Wentworth St N

  • Wilfred St: Oliver St to Burlington St E

  • Oliver St: Wentworth St N to Wilfred St

The works will begin in June and continue through to November 2025. Before any construction begins, City Staff will deliver notices directly to residents and businesses that may be impacted — including my office, so we can help ensure the process goes smoothly.


Road Reconstruction

When road resurfacing is coupled with addressing sub-surface infrastructure, it becomes classified as a road reconstruction. Water Main upgrades are planned on the following two roads in the Gibson neighbourhood: 

  • Myler St 

  • Milton Ave 

These works are scheduled to take place this summer and will involve digging and reconstructions as part of broader infrastructure improvements to ensure high-quality water service, increased water pressure, and upgraded sewer systems in the area.

Notices have begun to be circulated in the neighbourhood directly impacted. Some important things for you to consider depending on the type of property owner or user you are:

  • If you are a commercial property owner and you’re planning any underground utility work or service upgrades, now is the time to coordinate with a private contractor ahead of City works.

  • If you’d like to inquire about widening your driveway approach ramp or installing one, please contact Parking Operations at parking@hamilton.ca or 905-540-6000 (residential), or Corridor Management at 905-546-2424 ext. 4577 (commercial).

  • Local and emergency access will be maintained throughout the construction period.

If you have questions, regarding  you can also contact staff lead Gabriela Tokarska at gabriela.tokarska@hamilton.ca.

We appreciate your patience as these upgrades roll out—they're critical investments in safer streets, stronger infrastructure, and better neighbourhoods in #OurWard3.


Safety Enhancements & Other Capital Works

The Stinson community has been identified for priority pavement markings to help drivers to be more aware of sharing the roadway with pedestrians. What you can expect going in this summer include:

  • New ladder crossing like at intersection of East Ave S and Hunter St E. closest to Bishops Park. 

  • Enhanced markings with a new depave project along the Claremont Access off Victoria.

The Delta West neighbourhood finally received their much anticipated pedestrian-activated crossing at Maple Ave and Ottawa Street which is now up and running! This intersection is a key school walking route, but for too long it’s been a hotspot for safety concerns like speeding vehicles, blocked sightlines from parked cars, and tight pinch points where the road narrows.

Also taking place this year, a new signalized pedestrian crossing will be designed by staff on Victoria Ave N at Ferrie St E and Wellington St N at Simcoe St E. This requires substantive design and planning because of the proximity to active rail lines and will help facilitate safer routes to Bennetto Elementary School for residents in the Keith neighbourhood. It won’t be implemented until 2026 once the costing has been confirmed.


Sidewalk Improvements

As part of the city’s ongoing sidewalk improvements, the following areas will see sidewalk tiles that pose a tripping hazard, need repair or replacement will take place. Unlike previous years, Ward 3 will see improvements across many neighbourhoods:

  • Emerald St. E (almost at King)

  • Holton Ave S

  • 44 Stirton St

  • Wilson St. & Greenaway Ave

  • 49 Wilson St

  • 14 Morris Ave

  • 141 Maplewood

  • 60 Harvey St

  • Main St. E (between Gage Ave & Delta)

Also big news for the Keith neighbourhoods is that through a motion at Public Works Committee last week, I moved to have Mars Ave adjacent to North Central Community Park to be assessed for a brand new, continuous sidewalk along the north side of Mars — from Wentworth to Emerald. This important piece of public infrastructure is important to line up given the expanded open space currently being added to North Central Community Park.

BARTON-TIFFANY TEMPORARY SHELTER REACHES FULL CAPACITY

Hamilton’s temporary Barton-Tiffany Shelter site is now fully occupied, providing 80 unhoused residents with dignified shelter and access to vital supports. This milestone marks a major step in the City’s ongoing efforts to expand shelter capacity while working toward longer-term affordable housing solutions.

Operated by Good Shepherd in partnership with the City of Hamilton, the site includes 40 heated and cooled cabins (20 single and 20 double occupancy), showers, washrooms, laundry trailers, and common spaces for residents and staff. Residents receive 24/7 on-site support, including case management, health and mental health care, addiction services, and daily meals. The low-barrier design accommodates couples, individuals with pets, and provides secure storage for personal belongings.

Since fall 2024, Hamilton’s shelter system has expanded by 272 beds—an 80% increase—with the Barton-Tiffany Shelter contributing 80 of those beds. This is the first significant increase in the City’s shelter capacity since the pandemic. The site is designed to be flexible and may be redeployed for emergency responses beyond its current use.

To prioritize safety and dignity, the City focused on direct placements from encampments when bringing the shelter to full capacity. This approach has already led to a measurable reduction in encampments across the city.

This temporary site is just one part of the City’s broader strategy to ensure every Hamiltonian has a safe place to call home.

FREE TREE GIVEAWAY

The City’s annual Tree Giveaway is back — offering small native trees and shrubs to Hamilton residents to plant at home. You pick it up, plant it, and help grow our city’s green future.

Giveaway Dates:
