Mandate
The Community Advisory Committee will undertake two significant functions:

1. it will function as a mechanism through which the Toronto Port Authority obtains community input into Toronto City Centre Airport (TCCA) operations, with a view to assisting the TPA in managing the impact of these operations on the surrounding community or other communities located within TCCA flight paths; and



2. it is also to advise Toronto City Council of any operational or other issues related to current or planned TCCA activities that require municipal action.

Focus

1. Providing input into items of concern to Council and the community regarding the operation of the TCCA and the fixed link (if constructed), including noise abatement, traffic management, public safety, parking, transit, urban design, and environmental impacts and the actions required to address them.



2. Providing input into legislatively required environmental assessments undertaken by the TPA in relation to proposals involving the TCCA.



3. A regular agenda item will be reserved for an update by the Port Authority regarding existing or emerging developments that affect the local community.

Frequency of meetings
Twice a year.

Composition
The Committee will be comprised of representatives from key community stakeholder groups and area Councillors. To maximize effectiveness, a 15-member committee would be the ideal size.
