Summary

This report recommends amendments to the Corporate Facilities Display Policy that would enable charitable or non-profit organizations to conduct fundraising activities in City of Toronto ("City") facilities, where such activities support the strategic direction and values of the City. First adopted in 2016, the Corporate Facilities Display Policy:

 

- Establishes criteria, principles, and requirements for displays within the City's Corporate Facilities; and


- Provides guidance to City Divisions, Agencies and Corporations, Members of Council, and stakeholders, such as other orders of government, non-profit and charitable organizations, and community groups, regarding the process and criteria for displaying within the City's Corporate Facilities.


If adopted, the proposed amendments would take effect March 1, 2020 and apply to all facility booking requests made on, or after, that date.
