APPOINTMENT TO ARTS & CULTURE COMMITTEE
RECOMMENDATION:
That be appointed to the Arts & Culture Advisory Committee
for a term ending November 30, 2006.
BACKGROUND:
In November 2004, Council made its appointments to various Boards and Committees. Since
that time Cathy Menard has resign from the Arts & Culture Advisory Committee (ACAC) and the
Committee has requested that Council appoint someone to replace her.
REPORT:
To fill the vacancy on ACAC Council has two options: advertise for applicants and make the
appointment from eligible candidates or, consider the candidates who applied to the Committee
in November 2004 but were not appointed. Advertising for the vacancy will incur costs of
approximately $500 and will take another 4 weeks to complete the process. There were three
candidates from the November appointments that were not selected and all three have indicated
that they wish to be considered for the vacancy. Should Council decide to consider the three
candidates, their applications will be circulated under separate cover to the members of Council.
It is noted that one of the applications being circulated is from a candidate that does not meet
the Policy on appointments to Boards and Committees as she does not reside, work or own
property in the City of Kitchener. Should Council wish to appoint Ms. Isabel Cisterna to the
Committee, Council is reminded that the following resolution must be adopted by a majority of
vote of two thirds of the Members of Council present at the time the vote is taken:
"That notwithstanding the provisions of Clause 3 of Policy No. 1-63 (Appointments to
Boards and Committees), we hereby confirm the following appointment: namely:
Aooointee' Name."
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS:
Should Council decide to direct staff to advertise for the vacancy, then approximately $500 will
be incurred to place an AD in The Record.
