The Community & Neighbourhood Services Department is primarily affected by the amalgamation in the areas of
Libraries, Public Health and Housing. There are 5 management positions belonging to this department that are staffed;
however they are not new hires since these areas were not part of the amalgamation. The positions are as follows:
1 - Executive Director, Social Development
1 - General Manager, Children's Services
1 - General Manager, Homes for the Aged
1 - General Manager, Social Services
1 - Director, Hostel Services
There are also three positions belonging to the city's agencies, boards and commissions that have a dual reporting
relationship. The following positions under the Community & Neighbourhood Services Department report to the
commissioner of the department for administrative purposes and to the related board for all other issues. This year, the
Toronto Parking Authority and the Works & Emergency Services Department are negotiating the responsibilities of
parking meters. It is expected that in 1999 the Toronto Parking Authority will be independent. The three positions are as
follows:
Community & Neighbourhood Services Department
1 - CEO/City Librarian, Library
1 - Medical Officer of Health, Public Health
Works & Emergency Services Department
1 - President, Toronto Parking Authority
Conclusions:
There were 58 management staff hired into the New City of Toronto as of May 1998. These jobs were staffed within the
targeted time frames.
In addition to the CAO, the six commissioners are in place, which completes Phase I of
restructuring. Phase II is well underway. A number of the executive director/general manager and director positions have
been filled and several are currently in the process of being filled. Some departments have started filling manager positions
as well. The staffing of these key leadership positions facilitates the movement towards stabilizing our new organization
and strategic restructuring.
The next report will include management hires into the City for the month of June 1998.
