CD-22-83 - Our File: 35.60.8. SUBJECT: BOWMANVILLE BUSINESS CENTRE (B.I.A. ) REQUEST FOR AMENDMENT TO BY-LAW NO. 77-33, TO INCREASE THE BOARD OF THE B. I.A. FROM SEVEN TO EIGHT MEMBERS RECOMMENDATIONS: 1. That this report be received; and 2. That Council give consideration to the request of the Bowmanville Business Improvement Area Board of Management for an increase in the membership of the Board from seven to eight members. BACKGROUND AND COMMENT: By letter dated March 14th 1983 (received March 30, 1983), the Bowmanville B. I.A. has requested that Council give consideration to increasing the membership of the Board of Management from seven to eight members, one of whom will be a member of Council . It would appear, that the increase in the size of the Board of Management has been occasioned by the increase in the number of responsibilities and activities with which they are now involved. By-law No. 77-33 entitled "a by-law to designate an area in the Bowmanville Central Business District as a Business Improvement Area and to establish a Board of Management for the Bowmanville Central Business Improvement area," provides in Section 4. thereof as follows: "The Board shall consist of seven (7) members appointed by Council , one of whom shall be a member of Council and the remaining members shall be persons qualified to be elected members 16?) of Council assessed for business assessment in respect of land in the area or nominees of Corporations so assessed. " Cont'd . . . /2 CD-22-83 - 2 - April 11, 1983 Section 217 (6) of The Municipal Act R.S.O. 1980, provides that: "A Board of Management established under subsection (1) is a body corporate and shall consist of such number of members appointed by Council as the Council considers adviseable, at least one of whom shall be a member of the Council and the remaining members shall be individuals assessed for business assessment in respect of land in the area or nominees of such individuals or of corporations so assessed. " Clearly, there is no limit placed upon the numbers of persons that may be appointed to serve on a Business Improvement Area Board of Management, subject of course, to the limit established by Council by by-law. If Council concurs with the request of the Bowmanville B. I.A. that the membership of the Board be increased by one additional member, then it would be appropriate to pass a by-law authorizing the increase. A draft by-law giving effect to the Bowmanville B. I.A. 's request is also attached for Council 's consideration. I would also note for Council 's information, that Mr. Gilpin has by letter dated March 17, 1983 (received March 30, 1983) reported that the membership of the Bowmanville Business Improvement Area at a meeting held on March 16, 1983, elected seven persons to its Board of Management for the year 1983. For the sake of continuity of action, it would be appropriate for Council to consider, and if it is Council 's wish to approve an increase in the Board from seven to eight members, pass the by-law attached to this report authorizing the increase in the Board of Management. Then, Council could properly appoint the seven persons elected to the Board of Management for the year 1983, and finally to complete the process, it would also be in order to officially appoint a member of Council to the Board for the same period.
