can you turn on your cameras so we can do a quorum check please. Okay we have quorum so I’m going to call this meeting of the strategic priorities and policy committee to order this is our eighth meeting of SPPC. The city of London is committed to making every effort to provide alternate formats and communication supports for council standing or advisory committee meetings and information upon a request to make a request for any city service please contact accessibility at london.ca or 519-661-2489 extension-2425. To make a request specific to this meeting please contact SPPC at london.ca.

We’ll start off with disclosure’s appearing interest. Do any colleagues have any disclosures? Okay seeing none then our first item on the agenda is under consent it is item 2.1 truth and reconciliation commission recommendations update on the city of london efforts. I’m going to go to miss Livingston to see if there is any staff comment that is necessary or will be provided on this leading into the discussion today and certainly there’ll be lots of opportunity for colleagues to ask questions.

Ms Livingston. Hi thank you and through you Mr. Chair this report builds on the one that we brought forward last year where we provided an update on the actions that the city of london is taking in response to the truth and reconciliation actions for municipalities so this report does that but it also does two additional quite important things. With the hiring of the indigenous community liaison advisor Ms.

George Antone last May a lot of time has been spent in the developing relations important foundational work and so the report strives to outline that work as well as significant education and awareness work has been undertaken and finally the report brings forward at the request of council the land acknowledgments for council’s consideration. So with that Mr. Chair I’ll leave it to council for there and we’re ready all three of us to answer any questions you may have. Excellent I have Councillor Casty who has her hand raised first.

Thank you Mr. Chair um I’m so happy with this report uh I I want to thank um Ms Livingston but especially Ms. Antone George and um and Romina as well for all of the work that has gone into this it is so thorough um you know over the years we’ve seen somewhat of a piecemeal approach I think you uh the deputy mayor at one point raised some concerns and frustration with how the the approach we were taking years back was some sort of piecemeal but you know when I look back and see that it was only in 2015 that the truth and reconciliation report came out um I’m actually kind of proud and hopefully you are to Mr. Deputy Mayor with the work we did do on the last term of council.

So to see it come together like this in a very organized and methodical um fashion is is is uh is wonderful to see and I know the work that Ms. um George Antone has put into this as well very particularly so um I have a few questions but I would really love to move the recommendations in this report um I don’t I thought I might want to see if there was a reason to make a slight amendment in part a but I had a talk um and and with city staff and I don’t think that I need to make any any changes whatsoever um but uh so um I just wanted to get clarity from uh I think from Ms. Morris or Ms. Antone George or or from um Ms.

Livingston about uh the written uh version so in the recommendation part A it says including incorporating Atlantic knowledgement in its written form in written documents as maybe appropriate and my concern was did we need to be specific on what written version would be used I’ve been assured by Ms. Morris that we didn’t need to but maybe I’ll get some clarity from Ms. Morris on the approach that staff are going to take when it comes to that Ms. Morris yes thank you for the question and through you the chair um yes in regards to the written components our plan to sort of disseminate this uh practice of using the land acknowledgement will be um set off after council has approved this uh report and so we are looking to do a memo to our staff that will outline sort of the times and places to use the different report uh the different versions of the land acknowledgement but for written reports and um for email signatures anything that just needs an acknowledgement that is at short and concise we will be looking to use the third version the shortest version um in written uh context thank you through you through you mr.

presiding officer thank you for that response um I have one question about ongoing cultural training so early on in the last term of council there was an effort made um to develop a local cultural sensitivity or cultural training program to deliver to city staff and also to members should it be requested of agencies boards and commissions and that um training should be locally developed not something off the shelf coming from say Thunder Bay or something like that because there was a desire expressed from local indigenous communities that this be uh the local context be taken into into consideration and so all members of the three communities uh did participate with city staff in creating that training so there are a number of places throughout this report where it they talk about ongoing training and providing training um to different areas and at different levels and that the training would also be continue to be updated and changed as necessary so I want to understand if that same sort of collaboration will happen with both Londoners who are indigenous indigenous backgrounds and also the three first nations uh who are close to the city of London I usually slowly pause to see whose camera comes on and then I throw it over to Ms. Morris thank you for the question council Cassidy and again through you and Mr. Chair great question the um there is a layered approach to this so the anti-racism and anti-oppression division have been working on and have now fully completed creating an anti-racism and anti-oppression foundations training it includes um some pieces around indigeneity and anti-indigenous racism and it’s but it’s broad enough and it will be rolled out to all of our employees and then potentially to our ABCs as well so that’s one foundational kind of step in terms of training but we’re also creating beyond that is a learning path for employees and so that will build on the foundations training and it will allow folks to select training that is as you said locally based is um in keeping with very specific topics so if there is a need to have some very specific um training on indigeneity for example there will be options for that there will be options for other types of um specific demographics as well so people in the corporation will have a chance to sort of delve deeper as they see fit and as they see the need depending on their service area but then the third piece is also bringing in our community partners and so as you’ll see in the report there is some indication about some of our colleagues at at lotra and even namarin centers also talked about being able to create some training and so for those very specific organizations we’ll look to see we’ll look to them to create and offer us training that we can then purchase as part of that learning path that is very specific to perhaps the homeless population for example so there are a number of ways that we’re going to come at it one being foundational one being another being a learning path and then thirdly bringing in our colleagues from the indigeneist community to actually deliver and and work with us in partnership to deliver additional training for folks excellent um so one final question um mr. chair uh and that is again with regard to training so there is an election coming up at some point this year and at some point this year there will be new members sitting in these council seats and i wonder as part of the orientation program which i hope will be thorough and robust for new counselors i wonder if there will be an aspect of this kind of training provided as well are offered to incoming city counselors um there are certain things that perhaps incoming counselors might not know and and i and i do think that this could be something that would be very beneficial mrs.

Livingston yes through you mr. chair yes that will exactly happen in fact staff are deeply engaged right now in developing the new council orientation materials and it does include material and training with respect to to this area as well as other work that Ms. Morris and her team leave so we are working very hard with clerks to create a robust orientation for the new council excellent so mr. chair with your with your permission just another brief comment first of all apologies to Ms.

George Anton i know sometimes i mix your last name up and call you Ms. Anton George and if i did that tonight i’m very very sorry it does not in any way reflect on the admiration and respect i have in the in the one short year that you’ve been on the job through you mr. chair the incredible progress that has been made i’m so grateful um that the the report is so well written um and i know that that was probably a team effort and so thank you again to the entire team involved in this report the conclusion is beautiful and lovely it talks about um this being about awareness and acknowledgement and establishing and building and nurturing relationships founded in mutual trust i once early in um my last term of council i had a meeting with the former chief of the chip was at the Thames um Ms. Leslie White Eye and she we there was an issue around the spring bank dam uh going on in the city of london and it was quite controversial in there and it was quite quite polarizing as well what should be done and um and representing her nation Leslie White Eye said to me this is not going to be the hardest thing that our communities have to navigate together and if we do not have a trusting and strong relationship we will not be able to navigate those difficult topics together so this is as it says again in the report a step along the path towards reconciliation i think it is a this report represents a very good step and uh and i’m very pleased in case you couldn’t tell thank you and maybe uh given councilor cast you’re willing to move it uh this time i’ll just look to see if there’s a seconder for uh for this item i see councilor turner willing to second so moved and seconded the the staff report i’ll continue with the speaker’s list a councilor turner you’re actually next and then i have councilor homo after that works very well thank you mr.

chair um so thank you to staff for this preparation this has been a long discussion uh over a couple terms uh councilor cast city is identified um i have a couple quick questions um the first one is uh with respect to uh kind of um a course check uh how do we know i think we’ve we’ve gone down a few steps before we’ve made a couple of missteps um but we shouldn’t be afraid of those we we we want to uh go forward with the um with the intent of having a strong relationship uh with our partners uh and uh in order to do that uh we’re we’re going to do some things right and we’re going to do some some things wrong how do we course check along the way to know that um that and i guess i should put the caveat recognizing of course the communities are not homogenous uh that uh in in some communities um some steps will be received well and others may not be uh and how do we know along the way uh that uh that we’re we’re making progress we’re going in the right direction and how do we uh change direction if if we’re not going to Mr. Chair to Ms. Morris thank you uh for the question councilor Turner and through you uh Mr. Chair the answer to that really lies in the community and so our next steps now that we’ve got to this point and as was identified in the report that the community connections and relationship building have really been the primary focus up until now at this point we really see the next step being engaging all of the indigenous communities as you identify they are diverse in in their in their identities as well as their needs and so the hope at this point is to start to bring everybody together um all of those different communities together and work alongside other organizations as well as the city of London to really develop a cohesive action plan that really speaks to truth and reconciliation more broadly so that as the city of London we can really um excel and exceed what is already written in the 2015 report and so how will we know if we’re on track we will only know from community that is that is what equity work requires us to always be accountable to those that are in those equity deserving groups and so in this case we will be looking to the community to guide us to let us know when we’re off track um you certainly have a lot of strength in Ms.

George Antone and she is that connector to the broader community but but through her we will listen and we will learn and we will pivot and we very well may meet mistakes as well and we’ll um listen and learn from those mistakes as well so our hope is to work alongside the community and really create a plan that speaks more broadly to just what the city of London as a corporation is doing and what the broader community can actively do but not just to address the the truth and reconciliation recommendations but to go above and beyond so not just the ones that are that are assigned to the municipalities but to look at what else we can do beyond and there are as we’ve gone through the um the recommendations there are many that we can also embrace even though they’re not specifically targeting the local government and so that’s what we will look to do alongside the uh and listening and learning from the the indigenous community that we are lucky to have amongst us. That’s for you Mr. Chair thank you Ms. Morris so that’s helpful I think that is absolutely what we need to do the second uh the kind of follow up to that is how will council know that we’re on the right course um I’d imagine those council-to-council opportunities that are identified in the report are one way um also we would we would hope to see in subsequent reports um and and to be candid with us uh be candid with us when when we have taken a wrong step or a step that that needs to be rectified or corrected uh those those would be the things that I would hope for uh going forward um my my only other question uh is actually with a very specific uh on the TRC call to action on number 17 um which calls upon all levels of government to enable residential school survivors and their families to reclaim names changed by the residential school system by waking it anyway it speaks to the reclamation of uh of traditional family names I actually heard uh an article on CBC the other day that talked about um the ability of first nation’s communities to assign uh and and provide names to their their children uh that were historic and cultural but that uh provincial regulations didn’t allow for that because they didn’t allow symbols uh or use of uh uh non uh English letters uh in the assignment of names uh I know that we as municipality are uh the ones that collect that information for the certificates of live birth uh is is there a role for us to play in in that specifically bismores thank you for that question and through you mr.

Chair that’s um actually something that we probably need to look into a little bit further I’m not sure the answer to that question um in terms of whether we would have a role I know we can certainly support an advocate um but that’s probably something we need to explore a little bit further and and so I don’t have a clear answer for you certainly something we can look into further thank you I appreciate it I have figured that’s a question out of the blue uh and certainly one that uh that just kind of came to my attention through media recently but uh but it sounded quite reasonable and made a lot of sense uh I know that some provinces are working towards that and I think uh from municipality standpoint to help advocate for uh for those kind of changes would be very helpful as well thank you very much again for the report and I’m happy to second this is uh as we’ve already done. Councillor Homou and Councillor Hopkins I have you next. Thanks my um my question is being answered. Councillor Hopkins.

Yeah thank you mr. Chair and I don’t have any questions I am just really smiling um as I read uh this recommendation it’s been a long time coming and uh I just want to uh personally thank miss Livingston um Elizabeth and tone George and of course miss Morris for the work uh that they’ve been doing and continue to do I just think um it is so much appreciated when I look back to when we came on to council back in 2015 and we started to have these conversations and where we are today we have definitely come a long long long way so thank you very much also to councillors uh Cassidy and Palosa who continue to work with the indigenous community as well my appreciation to everyone involved thank you. Other speakers okay if you’ll indulge me I’ll say just a few brief words from the chair um I know uh Councillor Caste mentioned uh going back a few years and I think asked me a question and I’ll say I certainly am very proud of the work that our staff have done and and I would say uh wow you know what a difference having uh a team and uh and a division of the corporation dedicated to to this sort of work and the capacity that we now have as an organization to to have expertise within the within uh the city of London to to support the the work that needs to be done I can tell you from my role at FCM uh not uh not all cities have this not all cities have the capacity to have this and so we are very lucky lucky to have made that decision as a council to invest in that space to create those staff positions and uh it certainly is something that that allows us to do this important work and I certainly am also proud the other thing I’ll let colleagues uh know is is upon approval of this tonight it will go to municipal council for final ratification I will be chairing that municipal council meeting and it is my intention to bring forward a notice of change of order to deal with this item off the top so that we could do the very first land acknowledgement to add municipal council on that day so I’ll let colleagues know that I’ll be working with the clerks to to bring forward the necessary changes for that and we will be able to uh to although it was a long time coming uh if council approves this there’s certainly not going to be any further reason to delay in uh in doing this formally after approval so with that if there are no further uh comments from colleagues we can open this moved and seconded motion up for voting opposing the vote the motions passed 13 to 0 again I know was said several times but thank you to the to the staff team who did the incredible amount of work on on that and continues to do uh the difficult but very important work uh towards truth and reconciliation uh in partnership with municipal council uh we had no scheduled items we have a number of items for direction uh the first is appointments the greater London international airport authority board you can see there is a letter from that board asking for uh a continuation of appointment of a couple of their members uh if colleagues are okay with that I would entertain a motion to that accord at this time or or an alternate I see councilor Feitmiller willing to move the appointees as outlined in the letter council van holce you’re willing to second or council blows a van holce beat yes sorry about that um any comments on this okay that’s moved and seconded we’ll open that for voting now too Mr chair my uh voting button seems to recess itself before I can click on it so yes closing the vote the motions passed 13 to 0 okay colleagues uh and next a few items are uh request for shareholders meetings we’re going to deal with these one at a time uh 4.2 is the request for a shareholders meeting uh by uh London middle sex community housing you can see the letter in your package uh from uh Mr Chisholm uh I will look to entertain a motion I see councilor Lewis who happens to also be the chair of that board uh who wants to speak or move speak and then we’ll see the motion you want to move uh thank you uh your acting worship uh through you uh to colleagues uh I actually had a meeting uh with Mr Chisholm uh at noon hour today uh on a couple of items and one of those is the request for our shareholders meeting uh there were two possible dates uh given when uh we were in contact with the clerk’s office uh to bring this item forward one was June the seventh and one was June 22nd’s SPPC um and although the request in our package is for June the seventh uh new circumstances have arisen which uh leads me to ask that we uh amend the motion tonight to ask for that meeting to happen on June 22nd uh to allow our CEO to attend and I’m prepared to move that sure you can you can just move that out right there’s no need for an amendment so uh moved by Councillor Lewis uh to hold the shareholders meeting on that date seconded by Councillor Hopkins any discussion Councillor Heller thank you um wanted to raise the possibility of allowing a bit more time for all of the shareholder meetings and the delegations in my experience uh five minutes is rarely enough to really cover the material that needs to be did on and rather than deal with it at the meeting I thought I would just raise it now to see if people are open to something like a ten minute a presentation um and just deal with it off the hop okay the clerk says um we could certainly entertain that uh and she said we don’t need a motion if it’s the direction of the chair but given uh I only have the opinion of one person I happen to agree with it I think these are important boards does anybody object to us giving them more time than the standard five minutes for their presentations okay then what I will endeavor to do and I think excellent point Councillor Helmer it’s good for them to know that ahead of time because as they prepare those presentations uh they’ll know that I’ll work with the clerks to uh you know communicate that they do have more time and um and we will make that happen so um no need for a motion on that but great suggestion okay okay so let’s move in seconded any further comments okay we’ll open this for voting closing the vote the motions passed 13 to 0 4.3 is a request for a shareholders meeting from London Hydro uh you can see in that letter that it also says June 7th or 22nd uh I know we have our representative from Hydro here uh Councillor Van Holst so I don’t know if there’s a specific preference for that Councillor Van Holst but perhaps you could uh let us know and then move the appropriate motion on behalf of that board go ahead Councillor Van Holst your muted answer thank you we did have a board meeting today and I believe one board member said they wouldn’t be able to attend on the 22nd but I believe the other date is uh is fine if uh but the uh especially the the chair and and our CEO will be happy to descend on either date so um perhaps say um I would move the seventh or uh if perhaps our our our clerks could provide some some direction in terms of uh whether it’s it’s it’s better to have these all the meetings on the same date Councillor the clerks will take direction from council if there’s no preference on the day there’s no nothing compelling us to have these shareholder meetings on the same day um so we have SPPC meetings for both we can have it on either one so uh if the seventh works best for the full board and they’d like to attend I would suggest you move a motion on for that day okay that will be the the motion thank you seconder Councillor Layman seconds any discussion on this one okay we’ll get that up in a second and open it for voting closing the vote the motions passed 13 to 0 okay next up is a request for shareholders meeting for HDC in their letter they specifically request a june 22nd uh is there anybody willing to move that particular motion Councillor Lewis seconded by Councillor Fife Miller any discussion so we will open the vote for the shareholders meeting for HDC for june 22nd closing the vote the motions passed 13 to 0 okay colleagues uh 4.5 moves into the consideration of community advisory committee appointments it’s got multiple parts for all of the community advisory committee meetings there’s also a staff report attached this perhaps it would be advantageous to talk about the staff report first and then move into the appointments so if colleagues have questions about that particular report you’ll you’ll notice there’s a couple of things in there and some additional context when the when the the notice was put out for those to serve on advisory committees there there wasn’t a specific end date attached to to those terms the motions before you today are set up to have an end date of February of 2024 but the clerks say it is completely up to municipal council if you would like to have a different end date for these particular compositions of the advisory committees there was discussion obviously to to kind of stagger the terms past the start of an election and not have it be the first thing that we do and so that is what will come up I just didn’t want anybody to be surprised at that and and now would be the appropriate time to have a discussion on both the report as well as if you felt that was appropriate because we can certainly we can certainly change those if if council has a different opinion about those end dates the the other item too is many of these committees are up to 15 but can operate with less which gives the opportunity for us to move forward with them even if there are not 15 applications today and certainly the capacity to add members in the future up to that that 15 amount there is one advisory committee that has specific requirements for those who have a disability to be on there it needs to have a majority of members we will be voting on that committee and the nominations all together before we do the ratification vote the clerk will ensure that we are meeting that requirement and if we are we can ratify those appointments and if we are not we will have to make some adjustments to ensure that there is a majority of members in that category so those are my comments on this item what I’d like to do now is open it up to colleagues for any questions or discussion on the covering report outlining the process and and the other things that I’ve mentioned today colleagues any speakers okay great so we can move on then to the appointment of the committees and so colleagues know they are all all names are loaded into the system so so we’re currently set up to to deal with all of all of these items and all of the names that have been forwarded as you know these are up to 15 so that means you can pick up to 15 when you cast your preferences certainly there is the opportunity for discussion if colleagues feel they’d like to do that before we we make any sort of votes and and please take note of your added agenda there were names that were added since the original agenda came out and so we certainly don’t want to miss anybody who may have submitted their application for the added agenda deadline so please take note of those applications if you have not already done so I’m sure everybody has but I certainly don’t want someone to miss an opportunity because they worked on the original agenda and they were on the added so with that I’m prepared to open the discussion on consideration of appointments to the accessibility community advisory committee requires up to 15 members and and the majority of persons must be with a disability there’s no comments then the first thing we could do is we can move right to putting all of these up for your vote and we can proceed with the selection okay I don’t see any comments or thoughts then we can we can proceed with with opening this for voting clerk do you have anything to remind us about this process yeah okay I’m going to turn it over to to to the clerk to to outline exactly what’s about to occur thank you through the chair as the chair has mentioned all of the candidates who have applied will be reflective on the vote that will be open to or the selection that will be open to you momentarily members may choose up to 15 of the individuals for appointment that is available for voting now and whether they’ve got this all selected through the chair the vote is closed with the most results for and would for consideration of appointments with a separate motion will be and with apologies for the pronunciation Mason Bruner Moore Alejandro Garcia Castillo Umar Iqbal Natalie judges Susan my Paul Alicia McGraw Jay Menard Penny Moore Megan Papadakis John Keir Bonnie Quinell Pam Quinell Deena Reston Cora Wachowski and Kacha Harris Lavosca and that will meet the requirement for the minimum appointments included in the act colleagues we’ll do the ratification vote of all these appointments at the end so we’ll do all the selections first so that completes the preferential selection for that so we can move on to the next committee which is consideration of appointments to the animal welfare community advisory committee is there any comments the colleagues have before I proceed with the selection process on this then we’ll proceed with the preferential selection process through the chair we will open the selection process for this noting that there are not the number of applications for the requirement so in this case you may choose up to eight posing the selection process for the animal welfare advisory committee see the results from the selection process and all of the application all of the applicants received votes from the committee if the committee would it will be up to the committee as to whether or not to proceed with the appointment of all of them sure colleagues just something on the fly given the process for your consideration at first the clerk had mentioned that that we did not receive enough applications to fill the committee that that is not true the committee is up to 15 members and so it can have fewer than that and operate as well this it was set up that we do the ratification votes at the end and we could certainly do those all separately or all together we can also do them after each committee selection if that’s a colleague’s preference if your preference is to do it that way just let me know we could do it either way I’m just following the way that the clerk set it up in the system if anybody councilor Lewis thank you mr acting mayor through you it would actually be my preference if we ratify them after each committee and I’ll share just my thought process with colleagues is that if a change were to come in ratification at the end it may change the outcome of my votes for individuals on subsequent committees it’s my personal opinion that no one should serve on more than one of these committees and so if I have somebody that I is elected to one committee I won’t be supporting them on future votes but of course if that’s not ratified at the end that might change my voting pattern so I’d prefer if we can ratify them as we go so there’s there’s no problem in doing that that way again we were only proceeding of the way because that’s the way that it was set up in the system but the clerk had indicated me just a moment ago if if that’s committees preference we can certainly do the ratification votes it sounds like at least one member of council prefers it that way I see a couple of nods so if there are no objections from colleagues let let’s ratify them after we after we do the selection process I think that’s also much clearer which means although we’ve just done animal welfare committee let’s return back to the finalized preferential slate for our first group of committees and do the ratification vote on that one and the clerk is is prepared to do that so I’ll let the clerk outline what we’re voting on and we’ll just take care of these all at once with the preferential selection and then the ratification of the members back to back so clerk thank you through the chair if members will refresh their screen or click on the current item there is a new vote that has been attached to item the main item 4.5 and that will deal with the appointments to the accessibility community advisory committee so we would require a mover and a seconder to ratify these appointments so I have a mover in counselor louis and a seconder in counselor van mierbergen to ratify the listed appointments that you’ll see in e-scribe for the members of the accessibility community advisory committee any discussion okay we’ll open that ratification vote closing the vote the motions passed 13 to 0 and next we will consider the ratification vote for the other selection process that we completed which was for the animal welfare advisory committee counselor van holst is that a moving is there a second dare to ratify that counselor hamu is willing to I’ll just wait for the clerk to pull that up in the system we’re good to go okay we’re gonna any discussion on that moved and seconded ratification of those no okay we’ll open that for voting closing the vote the motions passed 13 to 0 okay next up the preferential selection process for consideration of appointments to the community advisory committee on planning up to 15 members we have more than that on the list is there any comments before I open this for your selection no okay so we’ll open this for the selection process counselor hopkins but there is not a majority with the first round of selection so we will prepare a run-off ballot through the chair after the first round of selection the candidates with no votes and or the fewest votes drop off the ballot so in this case the run-off will include all of the canned all of the applicant all of the applicants except for terique con and Ariana Mauricio that will be opened up momentarily members will still be able to choose up to 15 to the second round of selection there is not a majority so the candidate with the fewest number of votes will drop off of the run-off ballot and that will be Diane divine and a new selection will be opened momentarily to this round of the selection process there is still not a majority so Tina Roberts and Narojan Sirik Kumar will drop off of the candidate selections through the chair after the most recent selection round there is still not a majority so in accordance with the policy the council policy the final candidates will be chosen at the moment so the names Mike bloxam joshua dent and divinder luthera luthera will be placed into a container and two of those three names will be drawn out and those will be the applicants who will be appointed or through the selection process so in accordance with the policy the names being written on the three pieces of paper joshua dent divinder luthera and mike bloxam first name drawn by lot is mike bloxam second name drawn by lot is joshua dent okay so as we prepare the ratification vote um just make sure colleagues don’t have any questions about that particular process given it’s uh clerks are following our policy so if members refresh and go to the current item you will see a motion available for the appointment to the members of the community advisory committee on planning attached to item 4.5 and clerk um my apologies for doing this to you um however uh i know that i just received a message from members of the public and and many of whom are uh applicants for the advisory committee um obviously it’s very difficult for them to see the results of our individual voting but when we get to the ratification vote i think it would be helpful for the names to be uh read out before each of the votes so that people know that they’re on that ratification vote list um i don’t expect us to be scrolling through all the rounds of the voting obviously that is available in the final report that goes to council but i think it would be appropriate for those tuning in to be able to hear what the final slate of names are that are being considered for ratification so that they know whether or not they were successful at the committee member uh the committee level or not so my apologies for asking you to do that but i think that’s probably uh appropriate for transparency thank you and i will again apologize in advance for pronunciations the individuals for consideration for appointment to the community advisory committee on planning are Sarah Ashman, Stephanie Bergman, Mike Bloxam, Ingrid Canitis, Gabriel DeSousa Barbosa, Joshua Dent, Angus Johnson, Susan Jory, John Mark Metralier, Mike Rice, Joseph Wabajij, Mike Wallace, Kirby Wadd, Margaret Wally, and Michael Wojtak. So we need to move on a seconder for that uh particular list moved by Councillor Hamou, seconded by Councillor Turner.

Any discussion? Okay we’ll open that list of appointments for ratification. Councillor Van Holst, posing the vote the motion is passed 13 to 0. Okay next we’re on part e which is to the diversity inclusion and anti-oppression community advisory committee uh again we’re up to 15 members and we have uh more applicants than that.

Are there any questions before we start the preferential selection process? Okay see none then we’ll start this process as well. Following that round of selection there is not a majority so we will do a runoff and the selection available will be Penny Moore and Christina. Councillor Van Mirbergen.

So the applicants after that round of selection that received the majority of votes forward in a separate motion are Sue Brooks, Kimberly Ann Burke, Michaela Hazel Castillo, Dacey Evoy, Nadia Fod, Nikko Fraggis, Prab Singh Gill, Rupinder Parl Gill, Brian Hill, Hetam Carkey, Pafazzo Melofa, Lizette Ochoa, Ryan O’Hagan, Jose Paneda, Audra Stonefish. Those names have been read out. I need a mover and a seconder for that site of candidates. Councillor Lewis, seconded by Councillor Hopkins.

Any discussion? Okay seeing none we will open this for ratification. Clerk needs a minute. That vote is now available for members.

Closing the vote the motions passed 13 to 0. Okay item F consideration of appointments to the ecological community advisory committee requires up to 15 members uh there are not 15 applicants but we will still go through the same process to see if all the applicants get a vote. Councillor Cassidy. Thank you Mr.

Presiding Officer. We received an email from the outgoing chair of EPAC with some thoughts and suggestions. One person who applied for this committee had applied for this one and the next and the chair was suggesting that perhaps that person would be a better fit on the other and then also two others who had applied for the next one he thought would be a better fit for this one. So I wonder if there had been any outreach to these individuals if this had been discussed with those people who had put their names forward.

Certainly I can ask the clerk but I don’t anticipate that they would have done any outreach on that. I don’t know if any other members of council did and but I’ll go to the clerk. Thank you through the chair. Our office has not been contacted about any such changes to applications.

Councillor Cassidy. So depending on how this goes I’m knowing that there will be some spots open on the ecological community advisory committee. Perhaps at some point there could be some outreach to the people mentioned to see if they would be interested in filling the vacancies on that one. I don’t know I’m just I’m just throwing that out there and I’ll follow the process that we have before us today.

Given just maybe some thoughts I don’t know if this will be helpful for colleagues. Given this is a new setup of the advisory committees in a new process you know one of the paths forwards is if we don’t have enough applications to fill the advisory committee and we’ve completed those appointments obviously that advisory committee has the capacity to meet and given this committee in particular has been very active in recognizing where they feel they have gaps in the skill sets and things like that. I don’t see why that committee can’t make a request to council to say we can have up to 15 we’re operating with X number and and we’d really like a couple more people appointed like there’s we’ve committed to having a I think a different type of dialogue with our advisory committees and so I know that there’s a path here where we we we put a couple of people on a committee not sure if that’s where they want to serve but there’s also a path where we make the appointments today based on what we have before us and and then we let the committees engage with us about the need for more members and perhaps some gaps in skill sets that they might have particularly those who are not serving up to the maximum. So we could appoint they could operate and then they could engage with us about any deficiencies they have with their ability to operate under that with that membership.

Just some thoughts for you to share I don’t know Councillor Cassie if you want to comment on that but that also is a path forward as well. Any other discussion on the appointment on this one before we proceed with a selection process okay see none then we will open a selection process for this. Closing the selection process and all members received votes. I don’t think we need to read them all out given they’re all on the agenda so I will look for a mover and a seconder for ratification of that Councillor Fife Miller, Councillor Lewis any discussion okay we’ll open that ratification vote.

Closing the vote the motions passed 13 to 0. Okay next item g consideration of appointments to the environmental stewardship and advisory committee requires up to 15 members we have more applicants than that. Any questions before we start the preferential selection process okay seeing none we will open that process momentarily. There will be a runoff selection process with all of the applicants excluding Jirik Khan and David Polof.

Colleagues just pause your selection there there may be an individual missing from the ballot so just hold tight for one second. Through the chair I think that one of the candidates was inadvertently removed from the runoff so we will reopen that second round of selection. There will be an additional runoff selection process and the name Bonnie Mose will be removed from the available candidates. There will be another runoff round Angus Johnson will be removed from the available candidates.

Councillor Van Neubergen there will be one more round of the selection process and the candidates Mary Poidank and Sydney McLean will be removed from the selections. It will be necessary to draw by lot for the final appointments. Going in for consideration by lot will be Irina Tsilkova, Rob McGrary and Julian Robertson. So going into the lot for selection are Irina Tsilkova, Julian Robertson and Rob McGrary.

Two names that are drawn from the lot will be included for the appointments. McGrary, Irina Tsilkova. Okay momentarily the clerk will compile and then read out the names that will be on the list for the ratification vote. Mr.

Chair we only should have drawn one from the lot and the first drawn was Rob McGrary. So Irina Tsilkova will not be included in the appointment motion. Motion is now available in eScribe for members review. It includes appointments to the environmental stewardship and action community advisory committee for the term ending on or before February 20th, February 2024 including Danita Alec, Patricia almost, Marianne Griffith, Alexandra Haynes, Carol Hunsberger, Rob McGrary, Pristine Metler, Lucas Paulger, Michael Ross, Brendan Samuels, Girish Sankar, Lily Wong, Amanda Whittingham, Islam Al-Gomra, Gomra Rawe, and Naranda Saror.

Okay I need to move on a seconder for that. I see Councillor Ploza and Councillor Turner willing to move and then second any discussion? No? Okay we’ll open this for this ratification vote for approval.

Closing the vote the motions passed 12 to 0. Next item item h consideration for appointment to the integrated transportation community advisory committee up to 15 members. You can see the slate of candidates before you any comments before we open the selection process. No seeing none.

Okay we’re going to open the selection process. So after that selection process Sebastian Jimenez and Mike Rice will drop off of the motion that I will prepare for committees consideration. The motion is available in eScribe with the following individuals to be appointed as voting members to the integrated transportation community advisory committee. Ralph Butchall, Rachel Kabunik, Pabunak, Abunak, James Collie, Ernest Edie, Dan Foster, Trevor Kerr, Tariq Han, Scott Leach, Vincent Lubrano, Devinder Luthra, Melod Alexa Day, Cheryl Ruth, Antonio Santiago, John Verica, Ashvak Hussein.

Okay I’ll need to move on a seconder for that slate of candidates. Councillor Layman, seconded by Councillor Hamill. Any discussion? Okay we’ll open that ratification vote.

Councillor Helmer, closing the vote the motions passed. I now need to move on seconder for receipt of the staff report that was attached to the appointments. Councillor Fife Miller, seconded by Councillor Van Mirbergen. Any discussion on that staff report?

This is for receipt. Seeing none. Okay we’ll open that for voting. Closing the vote the motions passed.

12 to 0. Colleagues there are no scheduled additional businesses or any additional business that colleagues have. No seeing none then I’ll look for a motion to adjourn. Councillor Hopkins, Councillor van Holst.

I can do this one by hand so screen’s on. All those in favor of adjournment? That motion’s carried. All right we are adjourned.

Thank you everyone for your time today. I appreciate it.
