Steering Committee Meetings
FoNTRA’s key matters are managed by a Steering Committee with powers as delegated by FoNTRA’s Board of Directors.
The Steering Committee regularly meets one week prior to the General Members Meeting to review an agenda of issues (City Planning, Policy Matters, Tribunal Updates and Other issues) to decide on FoNTRA’s position on those issues and to define action plans. The decisions and actions taken on these issues form the basis for the Agenda for the General Members Meeting the following week.
The Steering Committee provides direction by:
- Discussing current planning issues and sharing ideas on how to be effective in addressing them.
- Ensuring that appropriate FoNTRA communications are provided on agreed matters to City Committees and Council, and to the Provincial government as appropriate.
Meeting Dates
Steering Committee Meetings are held every second Tuesday of each month (except August and December) from 5 to 6:30 p.m.
General Members Meetings
All Members of FoNTRA are invited to attend the General Members Meetings (GMM).
Attendance is limited to the appointed representatives of FoNTRA Members. FoNTRA Board members and Steering Committee members may also attend. Appointed representatives may invite other members of their residents’ association. Other persons may attend with advance notice to be provided to the Meeting Chair. Special guests may be permitted to attend for all or part of the meeting as determined by the Meeting Chair.
The GMM Agenda is distributed several days in advance to provide notification to Members. The meeting will focus on recent activities and key matters that will require attention in the immediate future. Working Groups, such as Affordability, will present the results of their activities/reviews in the past month. Meeting summaries are distributed to Members following the meeting. Items requiring attention will be forwarded to the Steering Committee for follow-up action.
Meeting Dates
General Members Meetings are held every third Tuesday of each month (except August and December) from 7 to 9 p.m.
