Background Information (City Council)

That Councillor Kristyn Wong-Tam be permitted to add to the agenda of today's meeting an urgent Motion without Notice concerning:
Release of Section 37 Funds to Support the Purchase of Permanent Office and Community Meeting Space for the Toronto Aboriginal Support Services Council in Regent Park
Reason for Urgency:
This motion is urgent because the offer of sale of discounted permanent office space for the Toronto Aboriginal Support Services Council is time-sensitive as is the third-party funding confirmation needed to meet the qualifying requirement from the Federal Government's Indigenous Community Infrastructure Fund.
