Transportation Advisory Committee (SPAC)
TO: Committee Members MEETING: January 31, 2024
FROM: Committee Clerk
SUBJECT: Chair and Vice Chair Selection
BACKGROUND:
The goal of the Chairperson is to ensure that the Committee functions properly, that there is
full participation during meetings, that all relevant matters are discussed, and that effective decisions are made and carried out.
There are three main spheres that the Chairperson has to manage:
•Assisting with the planning of meetings
•Running the meetings
•Ensuring that the Committee is achieving its goals
The Committee Clerk will chair the meeting as the Acting Chair until a new Chair is appointed or for the duration of the meeting. During the meeting, the floor will be opened for Committee
members to nominate fellow members for the position of Chair and Vice Chair. In order for their
name to stand, an individual must accept the nomination.
If there are multiple nominations and nominees willing to serve, voting will be done through ballots. If a Committee member is participating virtually, voting will be done virtually via Zoom.
The Committee members will send a private Zoom chat message to the Committee Clerk with
their vote. The Committee Clerk will compile all the votes and provide the results to the
Committee.
The Committee Clerk will then ask if any member would like to put forward a motion that the
selected individual be appointed as Chair or Vice Chair for 2024. Once the Chair and Vice Chair
have been appointed, the meeting can be turned over to the appointed Chair or the Committee
Clerk can continue as the Acting Chair for the remainder of the meeting with approval from
the newly elected Chair.
RECOMMENDATION(S):
That be appointed as Chair of the Transportation Advisory Committee for 2024
That be appointed as Vice Chair of the Transportation Advisory Committee for
2024
