OTTAWA- CARLETON
DISTRICT SCHOOL BOARD

Report No. 05 -237 to Chairs' Committee
Re: City of Ottawa Ward Boundary Review
ORIGINATOR: Joan Melancon, Assistant Secretary of the Board
PURPOSE:
To provide an update on the City of Ottawa's Ward Boundary Review and the implications for the
establishment of trustee zones.
BACKGROUND & STATUS:
2. As trustees are probably aware, the Ontario Municipal Board (OMB) recently rejected the appeal
regarding the City's new ward boundaries. This means that the way is now clear for the new ward
(W structure to be implemented for the 2006 election.
3. The City has established a total of 23 wards, consisting of 12 urban, 7 suburban and 4 rural wards. Two
new wards have been created and two councillors will be added.
4. The Board does not have the ability to add trustees to correspond with the addition of councillors. The
number of board members prescribed in the Education Act and Regulation is 12 for electoral populations
between 400,000 and 999,999. The total electoral population for the OCDSB from the 2003 Population
Electoral Group (PEG) Report was 482,943. While there may be a slight increase in electoral population,
it will not result in additional trustees. School boards can voluntarily reduce their numbers below the
number prescribed in the Regulation but to no fewer than five by a board resolution passed by 31 March
in an election year (Education Act S 58.1 (10.1- 10.3).
The changes to the ward boundaries will have significant implications for establishing trustee zones as
trustee zones must conform to the City's ward structure. Wards can be combined but wards cannot be
divided to form trustee zones. Wards which are combined are traditionally contiguous. The Board will
have to decide on the best combination of wards to form 12 trustee zones.
Regulation 412/00 which governs trustee determination and distribution is attached as Annex 1.
7. Under the current legislation, the Board does not receive its electoral population report which is the basis
for trustee distribution until 15 February 2006. School boards are now responsible for decisions on
trustee distribution and the final date for calculation of trustee distribution is 31 March 2006. A copy of
the Board's final determination must be sent to the Minister of Education, the Clerk of the City of Ottawa
and other local school boards by 3 April 2006.

Candidates can register beginning 1 January in an election year; however trustee zones are not finalized
until 31 March so it is apparent that there is a problem with the dates in the Regulation. Staff have
spoken with City staff involved in the election process who have suggested that we may want to pursue
this with Ministry officials. It is unlikely, however, that there will be any change in the timelines for the
provision of the PEG report for the 2006 elections.
9. For the 2000 election, staff prepared and trustees considered a number of options for trustee zones. The
goal was to equalize the electoral populations among the zones to the extent possible. The various
scenarios that were presented at that time also included an analysis of supplementary factors, such as the
number of schools per zone, total number of resident pupils broken down by elementary and secondary
and the total geographic area for each zone. Staff will provide a similar analysis for consideration by
trustees for the 2006 elections.
10. Any options regarding the combination of wards considered in December or January would be based on
the electoral population data available for the last election in 2003. Zones cannot be finalized until early
March after the Board receives its PEG report.
11. Trustees received the Report "Building Consensus Ottawa Boundary Review" with the May Chair's
Committee agenda package. Staff will begin work in the near future on the development of options and
interested trustees are invited to participate in the working group.
