2. DEBRIEF - ALL ADVISORY COMMITTEE CHAIRS & VICE-CHAIRS MEETING
Compass Kitchener members discussed how they thought the November 6t" All-Advisory
Committee Chairs & Vice Chairs meeting went. Overall, the consensus was that the meeting
went smoothly and there was good information shared about the 2051 Official Plan.
3. 2023-2026 STRATEGIC PLAN CITIZEN REPORT CARD
Members of Compass Kitchener discussed and finalized decisions on the evaluation approach,
rating, and process. S. Sweazey indicated she will present the evaluation framework to CLT for
their feedback at a meeting in December. In January, this feedback will come back to
Compass Kitchener for the new Compass Kitchener Advisory Committee to refine the criteria
and provide their input.
4. OTHER BUSINESS
J. Stephens-Wells explained there will be no December meeting for Compass Kitchener as
there won't be enough time to complete the recruitment process before the first Wednesday of
the month; the new term will begin in January 2025. Compass Kitchener members reviewed
meeting dates in 2025 and decided to meet as a group the second week of March (March 12)
instead of the first as Compass Kitchener members will need time to review the briefing
templates from staff on strategic plan projects.
Previous minutes (October 2, 2024) were reviewed.
5. ADJOURNMENT
The meeting adjourned at 5:35 pm.
A. Remillard
Committee Administrator
