Sustainable Clarington Community Advisory Committee:
"THAT Report CAO-001-13 be received;
THAT Council endorse the Terms of Reference for the Sustainable
Clarington Community Advisory Committee (Attachment 1 to Report

members, the Mayor, and a Member of Council;
THAT both the Mayor and Member of Council shall sit as ex-officio
members with no voting rights;
THAT the Municipality proceed to advertise for Clarington resident's
interest in public appointment to the seven (7) member Committee; and

The purpose of the Sustainable Clarington Community Advisory Committee is to
advise Council on matters of sustainability in accordance with these Terms of
Reference and is to conduct its business according to the Protocol for Council
Appointed Advisory Committees.
The following is an excerpt from the terms of reference regarding appointments:
"The Committee shall consist of seven voluntary members who believe
they can make a significant contribution to the Committee and, as a whole,
represent the diversity of Clarington, including its range of communities
and types of employment or business. Membership from youth is
especially encouraged in this important initiative. A majority of the
membership - four(4) - shall constitute a quorum.
A member of Council appointed by Council shall sit as ex-officio member
with no voting rights.
Stewardship coordinators for CLOCA and GRCA may be invited too, as
