The Metropolitan Toronto Police Benefit Fund -
Amendment to Metropolitan By-law No. 181-81
The Strategic Policies and Priorities Committee recommends the adoption of the report (February 16, 1998) from the Chair of the Toronto Police Services Board:
Purpose:
To seek authority to further amend Metropolitan By-law No. 181-81 (as amended) governing the Police Benefit Fund for the purpose of granting authority to the Chair of the Toronto Police Services Board to appoint a Member of that Board as that Chair=s voting representative at any meeting of the Fund=s Board of Trustees.
Recommendations:
It is recommended that:
(1) By-law No. 181-81, of the former Metropolitan Corporation (as amended), be further amended in the manner indicated in the draft amending by-law; and
(2) Council grant authority for the introduction of the necessary Bill in Council on March 4, 1998, to give effect to Recommendation No. (1).
Discussion:
By-law No. 181-81 (as amended) of the former Metropolitan Corporation, which by-law governs the Metropolitan Toronto Police Benefit Fund, provides for a 10-member Board of Trustees, including both the Mayor and the Chair of the Toronto Police Services Board ex officio.
The aforementioned by-law permits the Mayor to designate a Member of Council to act as his or her representative at any meeting of the Board of Trustees and exercise his or her voting rights. It is desirable that the Chair of the Police Services Board has a corresponding power to appoint a Member of the Toronto Police Services Board as that Chair=s voting representative at any meeting of the Board of Trustees.
