Summary

One current public member, Corals Zheng, has opted not to renew their term upon its expiry. As a result, the Board currently has four vacancies and is actively recruiting to fill them.

 

The Board confirms that the nominees are qualified to serve under the provisions of the City of Toronto's Public Appointments Policy and the Relationship Framework for Community Centre Boards of Management.

On behalf of the Board of Management, I respectfully request that the Toronto and East York Community Council reappoint Laura Mandelbaum, Ryan Patrick Northfield, Hadi Damani, and Andrea Wan to the Board of Management of Cecil Community Centre for a term of office beginning June 30, 2026, and ending June 30, 2028.
