"WHEREAS City Council currently has no tool or mechanism by which to compare applications for public appointments to City Committees;
AND WHEREAS City Staff have previously developed a scoring tool to assist the Community Services Committee in assessing nominees for the various volunteer of the year awards;
AND WHEREAS this tool helps to focus the assessment of nominees and supports the comparison of perspectives prior to debate and deliberation;
THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED THAT Council direct staff to bring forward a draft scoring tool to support the assessment of public applications to committees for consideration as part of the Board and Committee By-law review in September 2023."
