Guelph City Council supports the appointment of Mayor Cam Guthrie to the position of Director…

2:57:01um and moving on to this one though it I was made aware last week that I was approved by

2:57:11the Large Urban Caucus of the Association of Municipalities of Ontario to join the

2:57:20the AMO Association with the Large Urban Caucus sorry I might have said Large Urban Mayors Caucus

2:57:27I do not mean to say that Large Urban Caucus uh under AMO and uh so what's happened is that

2:57:36there was a vacancy and so uh there was an opportunity across the province for people to

2:57:44send in their resume and their cover letter uh to make the case as to why they could be appointed

2:57:52to this caucus and so I did that I think it's a really great thing for Guelph

2:57:59and AMO does such great work for us and all other 443 municipalities and it would enable me to

2:58:09be a part of this caucus uh be working alongside colleagues across the province and

2:58:16really with the province themselves and so I need a motion of council to approve that appointment

2:58:26to the AMO Large Urban Caucus and so if you don't mind I'll move it myself and uh Councillor Richardson

2:58:35told me that she would be willing to second that and I'll leave it at that thank you oh sorry it

2:58:40would start in June and it would go through to the end of this term okay thank you so much

2:58:46thank you so move by yourself seconded Councillor Richardson you did have some other

2:58:50Councillors here that put their hands up as well so uh I'll go straight to the vote is anyone opposed

2:58:58seeing none that carries thank you very much for putting your name forward and the work that you

2:59:02do I'm going to move to item number nine bylaws and Councillor Caron thank you I move seconded
