Here is who voted for the Civic Campus funding plan
Ottawa city councillors voted 15 to 8 to direct staff to come up with ways to fund a $150 million request from the Ottawa Hospital to cover some of the funding needed to build the new $2.8-billion Civic Campus expansion.
Approval begins the process for staff to develop a plan to cover the $150 million ask from the hospital, though final decisions on actually spending the money won’t be made until the next term of council, and the money wouldn’t actually flow until the hospital is substantially complete in 2028.

Jim Watson (Mayor) Yes
Matt Luloff (Ward 1 – Orléans) Yes
Laura Dudas (Ward 2 – Innes) Yes
Jan Harder (Ward 3 – Barrhaven) Yes
Cathy Curry (Ward 4 – Kanata North) Yes
