City Council Decision
City Council on September 30, October 1 and 2, 2015, adopted the following:
1. City Council amend the Board Governance Structure for the boards of Civic Theatres Toronto, Hummingbird (Sony) Centre for the Performing Arts, St. Lawrence Centre for the Arts, and Toronto Centre for the Arts as follows:
a. by changing the effective date of the thirteen-member board compositions from November 6, 2015 to a date effective when City Council appoints the initial eight public members; and
b. by deleting from the list of ineligibility criteria, the criterion "the person is a supplier of goods or services to the performing arts sector;" and replacing it with the criterion "the person is a supplier of goods or services to the City's theatre facilities", so that the list of ineligibility criteria now reads as follows:
"Citizens are ineligible for appointment, and may not continue to serve as a member of the Board, if any of the following conditions apply to them or their immediate family members:
- the person is a supplier of goods or services to the City's theatre facilities;
- the person has an employment relationship with another performing arts theatre;
- the person has an employment, directorship, ownership or controllership interest in an organization that has an interest in performing or producing live performing arts at the City's theatre facilities."
2. City Council authorize the City Solicitor to introduce the necessary Bills to amend By-laws or Municipal Code Chapters, to give effect to Council's decision.
