Origin
Summary
I would like to ask the CreateTO Board to reconsider item RA16.10 - Policy Framework – City Response to Demonstrations. Item RA16.10 was before the Board at our last meeting. I’d like to acknowledge that following the discussion at our last meeting, there was an expectation from some Board Members that there would be further follow up on this item. In particular, Board members were looking to receive further information on consultations that occurred in the course of developing the City’s Policy Framework – City Response to Demonstrations, particularly consultations with Indigenous Peoples. I have discussed this with the Chief Executive Officer, CreateTO and would like to seek approval to reconsider the item. The item will direct the CEO to come back to a future meeting with further information.
