The decision

2019-06-18 · Toronto City Council · adopted

As filed

City Council on June 18 and 19, 2019, adopted the following: 1. City Council amend the composition of the Toronto Atmospheric Fund Board of Directors to add one public member, which would result in an 11-member Board made up of the Mayor or Council Member designate, two Council Members and eight public members. 2. City Council amend the composition of the Toronto Atmospheric Fund Board of Directors to allow one of its public members to be a non-Toronto resident that resides in the Greater Toronto and Hamilton area.

On the agenda

As the city filed it

At its April 30, 2019 meeting, the Board of Directors of the Toronto Atmospheric Fund requested City Council amend the composition of its Board in two ways. One amendment would add one public member to its Board, which would bring its Board membership to 11 members (three Council Members and eight public members), as specified in the Toronto Atmospheric Fund Relationship with the City of Toronto, and which the Board feels is consistent with best practice of having an odd number of voting members.

The Toronto Atmospheric Fund Board also requested an amendment that would permit at least one public member of its Board to be a non-resident of Toronto, to reflect Toronto Atmospheric Fund's increased mandate across the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area that has been made possible through a 2017 endowment contribution from the Government of Ontario. This report provides alternative wording to the recommendations presented by the Toronto Atmospheric Fund Board, should Council wish to support or reject either amendment.

Staff recommended

The City Manager recommends that City Council: 1. Consider the Toronto Atmospheric Fund Board of Directors' request to add one public member to its Board, and either: a. amend the composition of the Toronto Atmospheric Fund Board of Directors' to add one public member, which would result in an 11-member Board made of the Mayor or Council-Member designate, two Council Members and eight public members; OR b. advise the Toronto Atmospheric Fund Board of Directors that City Council does not support amending the composition of the Toronto Atmospheric Fund Board by adding one public member.
