The two main agenda items for this meeting are how the City of Hamilton will “Embed Health Equity Methods and Analysis in Hamilton Public Health Reporting” and updates to the City’s bylaw prohibiting smoking in parks.

Embedding Health Equity Methods and Analysis in Hamilton Public Health Reporting

At the April 28 Public Health meeting, the committee unanimously approved a motion directing staff to include “health equity data” in all future reports. City staff state they will now include “a subsection titled ‘Health Equity Data’ in the Analysis section of the Public Health Sub-Committee Report template,” all reports after July 28 will have this analysis.

Updates to Bylaw Prohibiting Smoking and Vaping within City Parks and Recreation Properties

The annual update to the bylaw prohibiting smoking and vaping within City parks includes adding the addresses of five new parks.

The meeting begins at 9:30 a.m. on Tuesday, May 20, inside Council Chambers. (Here are the links for the agenda, and the YouTube live stream.)
