REPORT RECOMMENDATION

That the Agriculture and Rural Affairs Committee recommend Council approve appointments to the Manotick Business Improvement Area Board of Management, as outlined in Document 1, for the term expiring November 30, 2010.

RECOMMANDATION DU RAPPORT

Que le Comité de l’agriculture et des questions rurales recommande au Conseil municipal d’approuver les nominations aux conseil de gestion de la zone d’amélioration commerciale de Manotick, telles qu’indiquées dans le Document 1, pour le mandat prenant fin le 30 novembre 2010.

BACKGROUND

Section 204 of the Municipal Act requires that Council appoint Business Improvement Area Board members, who hold office until the expiration of the term of the Council that appoints them. Therefore, the 2006 municipal election necessitates the appointment of new Board Members to the various BIAs.

Pursuant to their respective Terms of References, the Agriculture and Rural Affairs Committee is mandated to make recommendations to Council with respect to appointments to the rural BIAs and the Corporate Services and Economic Development Committee is mandated to make recommendations to Council with respect to appointments to the urban and suburban BIAs.

The nominees, who were submitted by the BIA for City Council approval, represent the diversity of businesses in the BIA and will be actively involved in the business community.

As of the printing of this report, the Carp BIA has not submitted a list of recommended appointees to its Board of Directors. Therefore, at this time, the Agriculture and Rural Affairs Committee and Council are only being asked to approve the requested appointments to the Manotick BIA.

On 18 December 2006, City Council appointed its representatives to the various BIAs as follows:

Councillor Diane Holmes

Bank Street B.I.A.

Preston Street B.I.A.

Somerset Street Chinatown B.I.A.

Somerset Village B.I.A.

Sparks Street Mall Authority / Sparks Street Mall B.I.A.

Councillor Georges Bédard

Byward Market B.I.A.

Downtown Rideau B.I.A.

Vanier B.I.A.

Councillors Jan Harder and Steve Desroches

Barrhaven BIA

Councillor Eli El-Chantiry

Carp Village B.I.A.

Councillors Bob Monette and Rainer Bloess

Heart of Orléans BIA (effective upon enactment of the BIA By-law)

Councillor Glenn Brooks

Manotick B.I.A.

Councillor Christine Leadman

Westboro B.I.A.

CONSULTATION

Public consultation is not required since this is an administrative matter presented on behalf of the BIAs.

FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS

There are no financial implications related to this report.
