staff report dated October 4, 2017 from the Managing Director, Development
and Compliance Services and Chief Building Official:
a) the
draft Business Licensing By-law BE REFERRED to the Chief Municipal By-law
Enforcement Officer for additional review, based on the comments heard at the
public participation meeting held on October 4, 2017, with a report back

public participation meetings, the City Manager or designate BE DIRECTED to
report back with a proposed consultation and engagement approach for any
future public participation meetings for amendments with respect to the
business licensing by-law related to adult live entertainment parlours and
adult body rub parlours to allow people with lived experience of sex work to

amendments thereto without sharing personal identification;
it being noted that the Community and
Protective Services Committee received the attached presentation from
O. Katolyk, Chief Municipal Law Enforcement Officer and a communication from
N. Sayers, with respect to this matter;
it being pointed out that at the public
participation meeting associated with this matter, the individuals indicated
