OBJET
: |
NOMINATIONS AUX COMITÉS PERMANENTS - DURÉE DU MANDAT DU CONSEIL (2006-2010) |
That the Nominating Committee consider
the appointments outlined in the report and recommend to Council the membership
of Standing Committees for the term of Council (2006-2010).
RECOMMANDATION DU RAPPORT
Que le Comité
des candidatures examine les nominations indiquées dans le présent rapport et
recommande au Conseil municipal les membres des comités permanents pour la
durée du mandat du Conseil (2006-2010).
BACKGROUND
On
8 December 2006 City Council considered the "Council Governance Review -
2006-2010 Council" report dated 22 November 2006. Through this report, Council approved the
creation of six Standing Committees, as follows:
·
Agriculture and Rural Affairs
·
Community and Protective Services
·
Corporate Services and Economic Development
·
Planning and Environment
·
Transit
·
Transportation
Terms of References will be developed for these
committees and have been scheduled for review by the respective Standing
Committees at each of their first meetings in January 2007.
DISCUSSION
Following the establishment
of the committee structure, the membership of the committees must be determined. On 8 December 2006, a memo entitled
“2006-2010 Term of Council – Nominating Committee Survey” was distributed to
all members of Council. This memo
requested members to identify the Standing Committees they wish to serve on, in
order of preference. The results of
this survey are outlined in Document 1, issued separately under confidential
cover.
Through the governance report, Council approved that
membership on all Standing Committees would be nine members of Council (up to
nine members in the case of the Agriculture and Rural Affairs Committee and the
Transit and Transportation Committees will share the same membership with
different Chairs and Vice Chairs).
This report illustrates a
compilation of the survey information.
The Nominating Committee is requested to review the information and make
recommendations to Council keeping in mind the need to ensure a City-wide
balance and perspective, as well as recognizing as much as possible each
Councillor’s previous service, experience and areas of interest.
CONSULTATION
Consultation with members of
Council was obtained through the Nominating Committee survey and request for
committee membership preferences and associated comments.
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS
There are no financial
implications associated with this report.
