local business owners who spoke to the city of Ottawa's finance committee had a common theme about a lack of safety and security of the ByWard Market, and the perception the area has because of it. ottnews

The city of Ottawa's finance and corporate services committee unanimously approved a new plan for the ByWard Market that includes dissolving the ByWard Market BIA and exploring a "special area levy" to support the area.

Brian Lahey, secretary of the Properties Group, told committee that security should be the "first priority." "I've been sounding the alarm bells for several years now that we are at a tipping point as to whether the ByWard Market remains a key tourism asset for this city," he said. Stephen Beckta, the owner of Play Food and Wine in the market, said to be successful, the market needs to have a reputation for being safe for visitors and residents alike.

The mayor promised to establish a community resource centre in the market and said he supports the limited use of CCTV cameras in high-risk areas. It's unclear when that plan will come to fruition.A special area levy to support the new ByWard Market District Authority is an option that staff will explore to support the authority.
