Im guy johnson. Francine lacqua is off today. We begin with the mega oil deal. Shell has agreed to buy bg group for around 47 billion pounds around 70 billion in cash and stocks. That makes it the biggest deal in the oil and gas industry for at least a decade. Caroline hyde joins us at the touchscreen. Caroline a cool 47 billion pounds. A cool 50 premium on bgs share price. This is record data in terms of size of move, but if you go back, it is only since july 2014 when we last saw this price on bg group. That was the amount that the oil prices plummeted dragging down the price of oil stocks. Suddenly, everything looks a little bit fairer valued. That is what has capitalized this deal to spark the Biggest Energy deal in a decade. Suddenly, assets look well priced. Creating the secondBiggest Energy company in the world this would be the biggest player in the ftse 100. It will have sheer size and scale. Interestingly, shell saying, we will build a company with three pillars. They are goi
Presentation by benjamin van houten, project manager, nightlife entertainment sector. Good afternoon, members of the commission. Thank you for allowing me to speak today and thank you to regina for inviting me. I want to briefly introduce myself and my role in the office of economic and Workforce Development. My name is ben van houten, project manager for nightlife and entertainment oed. That is a new position as a result of a multiyear conversation, stakeholders in the nightlife entertainment has been having for greater connection to city hall and City Services. Obviously the comptrollers study last year about the value of nightlife to the city, a 4 billion industry and that doesnt even take into account the big outdoor daytime festivals. 4 billion, 48,000 employees in the city, and its also an industry that has some of the most complex regulatory hurdles to starting a business and a lot of touch with various city agencies to keep one of these businesses going and successful. So, give
Public health would. I think it would be both. Can the Public Health Department Share the information with the planning . Thats exactly whats happening here. Public health is sharing information with planning. Planning is checking it to make sure it matches the planning code. Thats why theres a fee. So, they will share it. Theyre sharing information. Then should they not charge the fee . I mean its provided by the Health Department. You could potentially roll the fee into one fee and planning could take a bit of the Health Departments fee. I think this is probably the way it works for most use applications so, thats why theyre proposing it in this case. Fully understand the commissions desire, which we share to keep the barrier to cottage food operation as low as possible because its something we all want to see happen. Director dickendrizzi.

Important, i think, i would request that the Commission Consider the alternative levels of Planning Department involvement in this. This could be a conditional use application. It could be a hearing at the commission. It could be a za hearing, that sort of thing. Any one of those levels of process where a cottage food operator would require significantly higher fees. So, we would encourage the commission to look at the level of this fee and, you know, again, i think planning can always provide i know other departments, ive seen the spreadsheets behind the fees of what they estimate in terms of the staff time involved and that sort of thing.
